Tidal Stream Energy
Consenting
Useful Documents/Links
What is Morlais?
Morlais is a Menter Môn project which aims to benefit local communities, the economy and environment through renewable low carbon electricity generation.
The Morlais project manages a 35 km2 area of seabed near Holy Island, Anglesey. It has the potential to become one of the largest tidal stream energy sites in the world with a generating capacity of up to 240MW of clean electricity.
The first stage of the project aims to secure consent for the development of the demonstration zone. Community and stakeholder consultation and engagement has been a key part of this process. The consent application was submitted in the autumn of 2019, a decision is expected by Welsh Ministers later in 2021.
Subject to achieving consent and approval, the second stage aims to put the necessary infrastructure in place for developers of tidal stream energy converters to deploy their technology in the zone. Implementation will be phased which means devices will be installed on a small scale to ensure that the development does not negatively impact marine wildlife. Only when it is certain that there are no negative impacts will the project be scaled up.
What is Menter Môn?
Menter Môn is a social enterprise which works across north Wales to deliver a range of regeneration, environmental and cultural projects for the benefit of local communities. By working in partnership with government, the third sector, business and individuals, Menter Môn attracts funding from different sources to add value and to contribute to creating a sustainable future.

About Morlais
Morlais will provide the infrastructure for developers of tidal energy converters to deploy their tidal devices on a commercial scale.
There will be a very controlled phased deployment, with the first turbines being carefully and extensively monitored - only when it is confirmed that there are no negative impacts will further devices be installed.
Morlais has the potential to generate up to 240 MW of electricity.
The electricity will be transmitted from the Morlais site to the National Grid.
Depending on the types of tidal devices used, some may be visible above the sea surface and others will be fully submerged and hidden from view.
Any moving turbine parts or rotors will be below the sea surface.
For safety purposes there will be some navigation markers showing the location of the devices.
Any devices on the surface will have lights similar to the navigation lights on small boats.
Electricity will be brought to a substation on shore via a maximum of 9 sub-sea cables.
Electricity will be exported from this landfall substation to the existing electricity network via buried cables to grid substation.
How will Morlais Benefit Local Communities?
Morlais aims to develop a long term and sustainable source of revenue to reinvest locally via Menter Môn projects.
The aim is to develop a local supply chain and skills to enable local communities to make the most of the economic opportunities.
Morlais has the potential to attract new investment to the area.
The project can establish north Wales as a world leader in marine energy.
By generating low carbon, clean electricity Morlais will contribute to safeguarding the environment.
Morlais will secure a renewable and reliable energy source of electricity.

Medline's Neolon uses their proprietary neoprene formulation to provide soft, more elastic and comfortable neoprene surgical gloves. The Neolon glove has a lightly textured grip to provide more sensitivity. In addition, reinforced cuff reduces cuff tearing during donning and in use. ARC (anti-rolldown cuff) was designed to reduce cuff rolldown common with most powder-free gloves. The inner polymer coating allows easy donning both with damp and dry hands. Brown/tan color reduces the glare from the lights in the O.R.

Which online brokerage to use for trading overseas stocks? in particular US stocks. Many thanks!?
Which is the cheapest, fastest and safest method to transfer money to Malaysia?
What's the most expensive category that is listed in your expenses portfolio and how do you plan to reduce it?
Turning 30 next year As of last month: 32% US stocks - High Risk 17% SG stocks and REITS - High Risk 19% crypto / p2p - Super High Risk 16% Cash - Low risk 16% CPF (bond component) - Low Risk Low risk component is about 30% of portfolio. As i age, more will be channelled from the super high risks high risk low risk.
What is the best way to buy US stocks (eg Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Google)?
Personally using Saxo. It's a custodian account - meaning you dont legally own the shares but Saxo owns it on your behalf. This is the risk you take in exchange for a lower fee - for saxo per trade is USD3.99. Other non custodian / CPD account charge like SGD15-USD25 per trade. I use Saxo to trade US stocks (capital gain portfolio) and then DBS Vickers to trade and hold local stocks (dividend portfolio). Saxo holds a capital markets services licence under the MAS so is regulated. Can just register online, meet the account manager to submit a few documents (20-30 mins) and then you will have you Saxo account where you can deposit your money, and use the money to buy shares globally (HK, Shanghai, SG, US etc). Easy no fuss set up, no lengthy forms to fill. Trades are instantly filled. Been using Saxo for quite long already - so far so good in terms of depositing money + executing trades. :) If you are looking to open an account, please let me know i have a referral code! fb.com/jackyyapp Market is volatile, stay safe!

If you have a dining room in your home and you are looking for some dining light fixtures, then keep reading. Dining rooms are considerably small areas in the home and you have to use energy efficient lighting for them. You can use LED lights for your dining room. Now, there are many choices of lighting your dining room depending on many considerations. The very first consideration for your dining room is the type of dining table you are using. If you have a large family and you use a large rectangular size dining table, then you can use track lighting or bar lighting systems. Track lighting systems look alluring on large tables since they can illuminate every part of the table. If you need some more light on the table, then you can use bar lighting systems. You can extend the bars from your ceiling to place them near the table, thereby providing more lighting to the table. If you have a small family and you use small or medium size dining table, then you can buy a round dining table and install pendant lights above it. Pendant lights are best for round tables since you can place a nice looking single pendant chandelier above your dining table. If you are still unsure, then you can search the internet for dining light fixtures ideas.
Many people are quite skeptical about decorative materials and they think that these chandelier or lighting fixtures would be expensive. But this is only a rumor and there are many dining fixtures available on the market or internet from reasonable price. Some people think that installing these fixtures would be daunting. But this is also a rumor and there are many diy dining light fixtures available in the market. DIY (do it yourself) fixtures are available with a guide and you can install the lighting system after reading that guide without any problem.
There are many design dining light fixtures available in the market that suit your requirements. The lifestyle of people is changing nowadays and most of us need an elegant looking home with best interior decoration. But you don't have to make a hole in your pocket for interior decoration. These dining light systems are available in affordable rate on many online websites. So, choose wisely and choose the lighting system that best suit your requirements and budget as well.

Muslim in America: The U.S. Involvement in Palestinian and Israeli Relations.
The following editorial is the viewpoint of the writer only and does not reflect the opinions of the Cat's Eye View staff, as a whole, or the administration, faculty or students of Henry P. Becton Regional High School
Aurora Marin, Staff Writer|January 3, 2021
@hosney_salah on Instagram
Entire towns built with aid from Belgium have been completely engulfed in flames.
Muslims across the world face harsh discrimination, threats, and overall hate because of attacks committed by others who use Islam to terrorize. Additionally, Fear-mongering is often used by Western powers to justify occupying Muslim countries and even committing bloody massacres. In recent years, conflicts between the Israelis and Palestinians and the United States' involvement has many questioning why there is little effort by the UN to put a stop to these atrocities or why there is a very minimal amount of coverage on what is currently going on by news outlets. Men, women, and children are being senselessly murdered on their own soil. Their homes, schools, and stores are being destroyed by attacks that are constantly being made on their towns and cities.
You may have a small idea about the negative relations between Palestinians and Israelis. However, you might not know why it all began, what is going on right now, and how it got to this point. On May 14, 1948. Israel was created, enticing a war between the Israelis and the Palestinians. Israel was victorious in winning, with hundreds of Palestinians displaced. Palestine was eventually split into three sections when the war ended in 1949: the Gaza Strip, Israel, and the West Bank. Since then, many wars were fought, and Israel slowly took more and more land away from Palestine. Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, as recent as April 20, 2020, signed an agreement for the unity of the government. In this united government, Netanyahu holds his beliefs that Israel will further extend its sovereignty all the way to the West Bank. These statements were condemned by Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh. The Israeli military and Hamas, a Sunni-Islamic fundamentalist organization, yet very militant and nationalistic, recently have been at each other's throats. Balloons carrying materials that could easily set anything ablaze were launched by Hamas to Israel's southern border. In retaliation, Israel conducted many air-strikes. The problem here is that Israel has continued these air-strikes on innocent people who had nothing to do with the actions of the Hamas.
Palestinian men, women, and children have been caught up in all of the chaos of the constant attacks by the Israeli government in Gaza. (@hosney_salah on Instagram)
Yomna Hammouda, a Muslim American student here at Becton, expressed her feelings to me regarding the issues going on across the Atlantic. She explained how "the Palestinian community is a high disrespected and harassed group that has been turned into a minority, a victim to the US and Israeli military. These people live each day in fear of which one of them will be next. They have been let down countless times by empty promises of support, or…an end to be put to this harassment." Hammouda, a junior, continues, "The United States has had a lot of involvement, some may even say too many affairs in the Middle East," she begins, "I think that if it's to combat issues regarding the US – if something is harming Americans – yeah [the United States] should have involvement. However, a lot of these issues that the US is getting involved in isn't really combating anything."
Miss. Hammouda speaks specifically about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. After recently coming across an article by GV Wire about the signing of a third 10-year Memorandum between both countries from 2016, Hammouda expressed to me her frustration with the US giving millions of dollars to Israel: "Why give 38 million to Israel? With that money, you can help students pay off their loans or help impoverished people. Israel does not need that money." Curiosity filled my mind, and it led me to search the web to find exactly how much this country has loaned. Evidence from a PDF by the Congressional Research Service shows that the US has given Israel around $146 billion for weaponry since both countries allied back in 1948. "It seems ridiculous to me that the US has poured so much into a country that commits, war crimes, barely even combats terrorism, and violates agreements made with the UN," Hommounda added, much more upset by the large number.
Overall, if Israel and the United States want to stop terrorism, they should avoid taking the lives of thousands of innocent people. Miss. Hammouda finds the statistics of US affairs with Israel unsettling, sharing, "I mean I'm concerned about the population of Muslims being shrugged off here. If they're okay with doing this, are they okay with doing it here? I mean you can argue and say they would never, but it's clearly happening in Israel. China has [its] camps and Europe is integrating laws against Muslims. I understand terrorism is a threat but that neglects the millions of Muslims around the world that have nothing to do with it".

Inside North Korea
Of all the pieces I have written for this site, this is probably the hardest. This is because it's an ever evolving and 'unfinished' piece of history, shrouded by obscurity and suppression; masterminded by control.
I first became interested in North Korea, and thus the Korean Wars (25 June 1950 – 27 July 1953), when a friend of mine suggested I watch a certain documentary by Vice.
Honestly, the amount of off-the-wall events that occur when a journalist bribes his way into the country is not something I can explain, you just have to watch it for yourself. The whole thing is in one word, bizarre.
Trust me, it will make you question a lot.
In a follow up post I will get around to explaining how we got to this state of affairs. However, yesterday saw the release of a new Human Rights Watch video, which I feel compelled to share. "North Korea: Tales of Camp Survivors",features rare interviews with former political prisoners who survived years of systematic abuse, torture, and starvation in the North Korea's notorious prisoner camps.
The video's release (17th Feb) coincides with the release of a new United Nations report which found that North Korea is responsible for crimes against humanity and called for an international tribunal to investigate and hold perpetrators accountable for the atrocities committed within the regime's prison campss.
The commission's 400-page set of reports and documents, detailed "unspeakable atrocities" committed in the country, "the gravity, scale and nature" of which "does not have any parallel in the contemporary world."
"These crimes against humanity entail extermination, murder, enslavement, torture, imprisonment, rape, forced abortions and other sexual violence, persecution on political, religious, racial and gender grounds, the forcible transfer of populations, the enforced disappearance of persons and the inhumane act of knowingly causing prolonged starvation."
Again, I urge you to watch this video detailing the horrific atrocities committed by the regime:
In a nutshell this video has reminded me of one important thing.
History is not just in the past, it is in the making today. It may be unchangeable but we do have the power to alter its course.
Please share this post to draw global attention to the report.

Trouble for Canadian LCC's?

Oil costs will kill bargain airlines, Milton warns
ACE chief says high fuel prices mean no-frills carriers will lose their advantage; admits Air Canada is suffering but well-positioned
BRENT JANG -- TRANSPORTATION REPORTER
July 1, 2008 Toronto Globe and Mail
MONTREAL -- Passengers are witnessing the end of an era of cheap airfares as record-high oil prices erode travel demand and reshape the world's airline industry, says Robert Milton, chief executive officer of Air Canada's parent company.
Discount carriers are suffering more than most, but all airlines are feeling the heat from oil prices that have surged beyond $140 (U.S.) a barrel, Mr. Milton said yesterday after ACE Aviation Holdings Inc.'s annual meeting in Montreal.
"This one is a truly global issue, and I think you're going to see a lot of airlines disappear," he said. "The ones who are going to really have a problem are the airlines that have been trying to sell a low-fare proposition."
Some carriers, especially those in Europe, revolutionized the industry with cheap regional fares, but with jet fuel bills soaring, the no-frills business model has come under attack.
"Those airlines can't offer low fares to that degree which will stimulate net new traffic because the fuel cost component of offering a fare is so high now that they just can't get to that level of stimulation," Mr. Milton said.
Canada's last discount carrier, Jetsgo Corp., shut down operations in March, 2005, bringing a halt to promotional one-way base fares of $1 (Canadian).
Mr. Milton said Montreal-based Air Canada is suffering some pain, but it is better positioned than U.S. rivals because it operates a newer fleet that's more fuel efficient than most American carriers.
Two weeks ago, Air Canada CEO Montie Brewer announced that the country's largest airline will pare seat capacity worldwide by 7 per cent in its fall and winter schedules, as well as shed up to 2,000 jobs.
After exiting bankruptcy protection in 2004, Air Canada has been phasing in more fuel-efficient new planes, including 349-seat Boeing 777s for long haul and 93-seat Embraer 190s for short and medium haul. In May, the airline introduced fuel surcharges, which also affects consumers who redeem their Aeroplan miles for reward flights.
While acknowledging the challenges ahead for Air Canada, Mr. Milton said the airline has survived tough times in the past, overcoming the double-whammy of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in the United States and the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak in 2003 in Asia and Toronto.
SARS "was the real crisis" at Air Canada because "nobody would go to Toronto, and nobody wanted to come to Canada," said Mr. Milton, recalling how air traffic fell between Asia and Canada - punishing Air Canada at its Toronto hub.
ACE, which is winding down as a holding company, owns 75 per cent of Air Canada. By the end of this year, ACE plans to either sell its remaining stake in the airline to an outside buyer or do some kind of share transaction that would lead to ACE common shares disappearing from the Toronto Stock Exchange.
"Clearly, the market conditions make things more difficult. But over all, our focus remains doing right by the ACE shareholder, and that principally at this stage means having the right outcome as it relates to Air Canada," Mr. Milton said. "We're optimistic that we can do the right thing and benefit the shareholders."
Industry analysts say Air Canada and WestJet Airlines Ltd. are in good shape to weather the current storm.
Calgary-based WestJet began as a no-frills airline in 1996 but no longer gives regularly scheduled deep discounts, evolving into a carrier that now offers some perks, including sprucing up its plane interiors to include leather seats and seat-back TV screens.
With oil prices skyrocketing, "I view it as yet another difficult event that the industry has to go through," Mr. Milton said. "This is a deeply cyclical business that will for evermore be like this - there will be periods of good times and probably more periods of difficult times, and this is just one of those very difficult times."
During the ACE annual meeting, shareholders approved a resolution that gives the holding company the flexibility to reduce the number of directors to five from the current nine serving on the board.
ACE sold off its remaining interests in Groupe Aeroplan Inc. and Jazz Air Income Fund in May, but maintains its majority stake in Air Canada and 22.8-per-cent interest in ACTS Aero Technical Support & Services Inc.

They wouldn't be in trouble if their management knew what they were doing.
Westjet is the only one expanding these days, mainly because they have good leadership, and well paid, non-unionized pilots.
Air Canada is a bloated beast that has absorbed all it's competition, plus the management is very incompetent.
Don't forget, they got rid of the 747 fleet in 2004, replacing them with another 4 engined plane, the a340, and now backtracking and replacing the a340's with 777's. That has to cost a ton, and naturally was a big mistake (a340's are junk to begin with, and they should have done the 777 thing back then). Most of it had to do with the fact that 'troublemaking' ex-Canadian airline pilots who were absorbed into Air Canada made up the primary 747 crew line, and the mainline union wanted them out.
I'd hate to tell you the obvious but this is every airline, not just the LCC's. And this isn't an attack on you, but your response to the article sounds like you have their whole business model flaw all figured out. If it were only that simple...
'troublemaking' ex-Canadian airline pilots
And I'm not sure about attacking the ex-canadian airline pilots and accusing them of being trouble making? I don't know much about the merging of that seniority group, but I would hesitate to make a negative blanket statement about a pilot group...
Air Canada recently announced 2000 job cuts. Air Canada Jazz just announced 270 people are about to get laid-off too. Not sure if this will affect the pilots yet. Most people are optimistic as AC has a large number of retirees this year as well as a large group of pilots at AC and Jazz interested in LOAs. Being a newbe at Jazz, Ive got my fingers crossed we dont see any pilots on the street.
Westjet, on the other hand, seems to be running full steam ahead. I think they recently got 4 more a/c and have plans for more. They've been scooping up a lot of pilots from Jazz, so this should hopefully help minimize any necessary layoffs.
Personally, I think whatever growth and expansion the airlines in Canada are going through right now will not continue. WJ might continue to hire, but once they feel the effects of the oil prices, they will be hurting like Air Canada.

| Cafe Vicenzo a Gateway to college populations mingling
Cafe Vicenzo a Gateway to college populations mingling
"How are you connected with Gateway?" Our party of two, reservations required, sits at a round table for eight, and the two men seated next to us have turned to see what we are doing. Their curiosity is not unwarranted. We are at Café Vincenzo, the restaurant component of the Gateway Community College Culinary Arts program, and we are the only people under the age of 30 eating in the restaurant, which seats 32.
We appear to have been seated at the Humanities table, for as the meal goes on, the chairs around us fill with English and film professors. Though it is not clear that the other patrons have any connection to Gateway, the questions and the absence of other students indicate that our presence is unusual.
The absence of Yale students at Café Vincenzo is not difficult to explain. Though Gateway will move downtown within the next few years, Gateway's current campus, a little way past Ikea, is at least a 10-minute drive from Yale. The restaurant requires reservations and is open only for lunch on Tuesday and dinner on Thursday, and the prix fixe menu leaves little wiggle room for gastronomic oddities like vegetarianism. Students willing to brave the distance and accommodate the restaurant's schedule, however, will find at the end of a painted-white-cinderblock, educational-bulletin-board-filled corridor possibly the biggest culinary bargain available in New Haven.
For $9, lunch includes soup, salad, an entrée, dessert and coffee. We began with a believable Tuscan white bean soup with escarole greens, followed by a mixed field green salad with basil vinaigrette, fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and blackberries. The entree, a fish the menu listed as "baked scrod" and that harbored what appeared to be a fried crust, gained nothing from its name. Scrod must have been on the brink of extinction from over-farming in order to merit a name that would ensure that even the bravest seafarer think twice before eating it, but Gateway's rendition of it was palatable. The scrod sat on a bed of white rice, crowned with an onion ring encircling three stalks of asparagus. A piece of parsley completed the tower, jutting at a right angle to the fish like a thin tree on a baked or fried desert island, surrounded by a sea of ginger-lemongrass buerre blanc. Dessert involved a wineglass of rice pudding, whipped cream and chocolate sauce. At Gourmet Heaven, a sandwich and a Diet Coke alone max out the $9 budget.
More than the incontestable prices, though, the warm reception makes Cafe Vincenzo worth the trek and the strangeness of eating in a classroom-turned-restaurant. The professors were all interested in hearing about life at Yale and were eager to introduce me to Andrew Randy, the head chef in the Culinary Arts program. The professors testified to Andrew's glory as though I were a judge at a canonization hearing. "Andrew teaches cooking to the developmentally disabled!" "Andrew makes Christmas dinner for the homeless!" I would not have been surprised to hear that Andrew had fought global warming through cooking classes.
In addition to his community service work, Andrew has been running the restaurant at Gateway for the last eight years. For Tuesday lunches, Andrew creates a menu and students help cook and serve the food. For Thursday dinners, which cost just $18, students create the menus based on ethnic and regional cuisines.
Now, the restaurant caters mainly to the Gateway community, but Andrew looks forward to expanding when the College moves downtown. The restaurant, he says, will be five times its current size. The Culinary Arts program will also operate a bakery, and the restaurant kitchens will be walled with glass so that the public and diners alike can see inside — a little Gray-Kunz-at-Columbus-Circle closer to home.
The talks of moving Gateway Community College downtown often emphasized the possibility of a relationship between Yale and Gateway, but it was not clear how proximity alone would unite the two. If the restaurant were closer to Yale and large enough to accommodate both people from Gateway and the broader downtown community, it might offer a real space for Yale and Gateway students to come together. That's a lot to get for $9.

2021 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD Maxes Out at 36,000 Pounds of Towing
If you need to do any serious towing, you need a truck that can keep up with your needs. Chevrolet recently announced that the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD has increased its maximum towing capacity for the 2021 model year. This, along with some other updates, make it one of the best heavy-duty trucks you can buy.
Last year, the Silverado 3500HD has a maximum towing capacity of 35,500 pounds. For 2021, that limit has increased to 36,000 pounds. Chevrolet said this increase was achieved through changes to the wheels and suspension. You can get this maximum towing capacity with the Work Truck trim with a regular cab, two-wheel drive, the Max Tow Package, dual rear wheels, and the 6.6-liter Duramax® diesel engine.
The 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD is also adding some new technology innovations with five new trailering features including an enhanced cargo bed camera view, a trailer length indicator when changing lanes, an improved rear trailer view, a jack-knife alert, and a rear side camera view.
If you are looking for ways to make your Silverado HD stand out from the crowd, there are four new special editions available for 2021. These include the Carhartt Special Edition, the Midnight Edition, the Z71 Sport Edition, and the Z71 Chrome Sport model.
You can find the 2021 Silverado HD 3500 HD at Greenwood Chevrolet in Fort Meade, FL.

Silverado HD and Sierra HD Win Technology Innovation Award at CES
The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD have been singled out by ALG to receive a Technology Innovation Award. ALG is an organization that forecasts the residual value of cars in the U.S. and Canada. They awarded the prize to General Motors for the innovative trailering camera systems on the Silverado and Sierra. This is the second year that ALG has awarded the technology prize at the 2020 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
Trailer views, inside and out
The judges heaped praise on the trailering systems of the Sierra and Silverado, which employ numerous cameras to provide multiple views around the vehicles from the bed, around the outside of the vehicle, and even through the trailer. A transparent trailer view in the vehicles uses cameras to create a view representing what's immediately behind the trailer, taking the stress out of backing a trailer and eliminating the need for a second person to help you maneuver. You'll be able to enjoy a clear view of what's behind the trailer on an 8-inch infotainment touch screen on the truck's dashboard. This handy technology is more than user friendly — it'll give you a sense of security greater than ever before.

Southeastern Arizona is rich in history and natural beauty. Here is a suggested itinerary that includes sites related to Native American, Spanish, and early Anglo-European presence as well as a bit of hiking, some spelunking, and some excellent shopping opportunities. The best time to make the trip is spring or fall. Summer in Southern Arizona can be very hot and winter very chilly. Also, believe it or not, snow can limit access to some of the higher elevations in Arizona.
Approaching the area from the north, east, or west, the most direct route is via the Interstate Highway system. Interstate Highway 10 connecting Tucson, Arizona, and Las Cruces, New Mexico, runs through Cochise County and skirts the northern rim of the area covered by this itinerary. Coming from the south through Mexico your best route will be via the Douglas crossing point.
There are six towns in the area that can be used as bases of operation - Wilcox, Benson, Tombstone, Sierra Vista, Bisbee and Douglas. All have an ample range of tourist services. Sierra Vista is the largest, Tombstone the most famous, and Bisbee the most unique. Nearby Tucson is also a possible base for one leg of your trip if you are coming from the north or west. Make certain that you have a good road map before deciding on the specifics of your visit and check the Cochise County links below or click on the locations of interest on the map above.
In addition to some beautiful desert scenery and the various communities in the region, there are nine major things to include in your itinerary - Karchner Caverns, Fort Huachuca, Coronado National Monument, Slaughter Ranch, Bisbee Copper Mine, Cochise Stronghold, Chiricahua National Monument, Fort Bowie, and Apache Pass. Depending on how you like to travel, the trip should take about three days if you want to see it all, but it can be done in two days if you are willing to save a few places for a later visit.
Two Day Trip, Day One: depart from Tucson proceed east on Interstate Highway 40 to Highway 90. Turn south on Highway 90 and proceed to the Karchner Caverns State Park. (Advance reservations are required for the best tours. Telephone ahead.) After a morning tour, the park is an excellent spot for a picnic (don't forget to bring lunch with you). After lunch continue south to Fort Huachuca located west of Sierra Vista (follow the signs). Fort Huachuca was the home of the famous Buffalo Soldiers and has a proud history dating back to the Apache wars of the nineteenth century. (The historic fort is located on an active military facility and consequently you will need your driver's license, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance to get a pass for entry into the fort.) If you did not picnic at the caverns there are plenty of places in Sierra Vista to eat. After visiting the fort continue south on Highway 92 for a brief visit to Coronado National Monument. After paying homage to Coronado return to Highway 92 and proceed to Bisbee. Bisbee is the home of a very large copper mine and is an excellent spot for a bit of shopping, dinner, and overnight in one of several delightful inns. If you like beer Dave's Electric is an excellent local brew.
Two Day Trip, Day Two: after breakfast and a visit to the Mining Museum in Bisbee proceed north on Highway 80 to Tombstone for a morning with the memories of the Earps and the Clantons and a visit to the Tombstone Courthouse. Have lunch in Tombstone. After lunch ask directions and take the back road east to Highway 191. Turn north on Highway 191 to Highway 181. Turn east on Highway 181 and follow it first east and then north to the Chiricahua National Monument. There are a couple of good hikes in the park and some fabulous scenery. These were the rocks that sheltered Cochise, Geronimo and their Apache breatheren. If you decided against lunch in Tombstone this would be an excellent place for a late picnic lunch. (Don't forget to bring lunch with you.) After Chiricahua turn north on Highway 186 and follow the signs to Fort Bowie and Apache Pass. The road off of Highway 186 is dirt and the foot trail to the fort is about a mile and a half. (Once again heavy rain may make the road impassable for some vehicles.) After visiting the fort continue north on Highway 186 to Wilcox. Overnight in Wilcox. I like the Barbecue spot in the old part of town. Straight forward barbecued meat served with potato salad and beans in an old railroad car near city hall (which is in the railraod station.) Modest price.
Modifications of the Two Day trip are of course yours to make. Everybody is obviously not interested in the same things. One could easily cut out Coronado National Monument and Fort Huachuca and visit Tombstone on the afternoon of Day One, going on to Bisbee that night. This would make it possible to fit in the Slaughter Ranch the morning of Day Two prior to continuing on to Chiricahua National Monument that afternoon. Lunch could be in Douglas that day if you don't want to picnic in the park. For me the critical elements of the trip would include Karchner Caverns, Tombstone, Bisbee, Chiricahua National Monument and Fort Bowie. This itinerary is basically circular and can easily be modified for those approaching from the south or east.
If one has the time I recommend taking three days for this itinerary. The first day would mirror Day One of the Two Day Trip and would overnight in Bisbee, but instead of one night I would arrange to stay in Bisbee two nights. Day Two of the Three Day trip would start out with a morning visit to Tombstone followed by a stop at the Slaughter Ranch east of Douglas and a return to Bisbee for dinner and overnight. Day Three of the Three Day trip would add a visit to the Cochise Stronghold (off of Highway 191 just north of the turnoff to Highway 181) prior to continuing on to Chiricahua National Monument and the rest of the Two Day, Day Two itinerary.
No matter which way you proceed and no matter which destinations you include I am certain that you will find this trip enjoyable and worthwhile. It offers a wide variety of destinations and activities and should be interesting to people of all ages.


The turn of the decade saw a new page in the realm of Social Media or rather Social Interaction itself, Facebook. This networking website from being a mere social platform for a college has catapulted to a platform where the entire of world is present, interacting, building relationships. It has been remarkable step not just on a level of individual interactions but as a stage for millions of Marketers to advertise and publicize themselves amidst the largest crowd there could ever be at any one given rostrum.
The phenomenon (a very apt word), mentioned above, is called Social Media Marketing. Now there are many websites and indeed many other conduits of Social Media Marketing, but we are going to stick to the mammoth one for now. Facebook has since forever been known as a dais to make friends on a global level, to hang out with your friends (electronically), to share about your self, but many a times we benight how much of a strong marketing platform it is. We are audience to about an average of 20 ads every time we open Facebook! Simply calculate the number of times you log into your account in a day. Isn't it one of the the best places to market on Social Media?
Marketing through Facebook is not just via the official pages or through paid advertisements, the most recent of entrants are the popular 'just for fun' and other such casual pages. These have become the best of attractions for companies and marketers, as they tend to opinionate you without letting you even get a gist of it.
Simply remember the things you liked because likes them or vice-versa.
Let the most ribaldrical yet the truth be asked, how many of you hate Justin Bieber just because some FB pages hate it?
Not a very marketing related fact, but it does display the opinionating strength of Facebook. Now, imagine this being done by all those funny review jokes you read about some movie (The ones in favor, well, marketing) or about some product or anything at all. So, in fact it's not just Mark Zuckerberg who earns through Facebook.
Social networking sites can have a large impact on the outcome of events. In 2010, a Facebook campaign surfaced in the form of a petition. Users virtually signed a petition asking NBC Universal to have actress Betty White host Sunday Night Live. Once signed, users forwarded the petition to all of their followers. The petition went viral and on May 8, 2010, Betty White hosted SNL.
The 2008 US Presidential Campaign had a huge presence on social networking sites. Barack Obama, a Democratic Candidate for US President, used Twitter and Facebook to differentiate his campaign. His social networking profile pages were constantly being updated and interacting with followers.
Small Businesses also use social networking sites as a promotional technique. Businesses can follow individuals social networking site uses in the local area and advertise specials and deals. These can be exclusive and in the form of "get a free drink with a share of this post". This type of message encourages other locals to follow the business on the sites in order to obtain the promotional deal. In the process, the business is getting seen and promoting itself (brand visibility).
A study from 2011 attributed 84% of "engagement" or clicks to Likes that link back to Facebook advertising.
This gives a pretty decent idea about the power of Social Media Marketing as well as about the topic we picked in general.

Twitter Is Down
by Rob Boyle July 26, 2012 July 27, 2012 0468
UPDATE: Twitter is back up. Here's a statement by Twitter.
"We are sorry. Many of you came to Twitter earlier today expecting, well, Twitter. Instead, between around 8:20am and 9:00am PT, users around the world got zilch from us. By about 10:25am PT, people who came to Twitter finally got what they expected: Twitter.
The cause of today's outage came from within our data centers. Data centers are designed to be redundant: when one system fails (as everything does at one time or another), a parallel system takes over. What was noteworthy about today's outage was the coincidental failure of two parallel systems at nearly the same time.
I wish I could say that today's outage could be explained by the Olympics or even acascading bug. Instead, it was due to this infrastructural double-whammy. We are investing aggressively in our systems to avoid this situation in the future.
On behalf of our infrastructure team, we apologize deeply for the interruption you had today. Now — back to making the service even better and more stable than ever.
– Mazen Rawashdeh, VP, Engineering (@mazenra)"
Only a matter of days ago we reported that Apple's iMessaging system was having difficulties. Today, social networking giant Twitter appears to be having troubles of it's own.
I haven't found any news of this on other websites, and Twitter's status blog hasn't reported anything yet. However for me, Tweetbot isn't working and the official website isn't loading. Most uptime tracking websites are also reporting that Twitter is down.
Update: 17:50
Twitter must be having quite a bit of trouble. They have managed to update the homepage to show a link to the Twitter status page which acknowledges the issue. However the place holder looks somewhat naked.

ED books Chinese national Charlie Peng in Rs 1,000 cr hawala case
by NewsAllBDAug 17, 2020Business0 comments
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has registered a case against Chinese citizen Charlie Peng, also known as Luo Sang, and others under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) for their involvement in the Hawala Case Rs 1000 crore .
The ED recorded the case on the basis of the Delhi Police FIR filed on September 13 in 2018.
Peng was raided by the Income Tax Department last week. He is still being questioned for Income Tax for money laundering and hawala connection.
The income tax started raids against Charlie Peng and other involved defendants, including bankers and CA, on August 11, and unearthed Rs 1 billion hawala and money laundering racket. The I-T Department said that Charlie Peng and some other Chinese nationals with the help of bank officials and CA opened 40 bank accounts and operated shell companies. Rs 100 crore withdrawn from bogus companies and set up retail chain showroom in India.
Luo is still being questioned for Income Tax for money laundering and hawala connection.
The ED case is based on the 2018 Delhi Police FIR. He was detained from the Majnu Ka Teela area of Delhi for the suspect of spying on the Dalai Lama, but later arrested on the forgery and passport law charges.
He was later released on bail and the police filed charges against him on June 6, 2019. However, the charges have yet to be framed.

Q: automating replace and append words from text file I have a line in bash file like ---
curl -L $domain/url1 options

domain is already read from another text file and
domains like
abc.com
google.com
yahoo.com

and i have another separate file which contains further URL (lot in number):
url1
url2
url3
....
url1000

I want to replace that url and append that like:
curl -L abc.com/url1 options
curl -L abc.com/url2 options
curl -L abc.com/url3 options
....
curl -L $abc.com/url1000 options

It is taking too much time manually, so I want to automate this process.

A: Use a proper loop in bash with Process-substitution,
while IFS= read -r url; do
    curl -L abc.com/"$url" options
done <url_file

would just be sufficient (or) in a single-line of the same-loop,
while IFS= read -r url; do curl -L abc.com/"$url" options; done <url_file

For your updated requirement to loop on two files, you need to define multiple file descriptors and read from it,
while IFS= read -r domain <&3; do
    while IFS= read -r url <&4; do
        curl -L "$domain"/"$url" options
    done 4<url.txt
done 3<domain.txt

The above should work fine on any POSIX shell not involving any bash-isms, you could just put the above in a script with a #!/bin/sh she-bang.

Weighed in at the beginning of the week and barely made my goal (as recorded in the previous blog entry). Now it's Friday, I've gained weight and it WILL NOT drop. I am frustrated and angry right now. I've confirmed, however, that even a small amount of alcohol consumption will interfere with fat loss. I had a margarita for lunch yesterday and a beer the night before. What to do? Channel the anger into determination. Change course to gain control and thereby eliminate the frustration.
The last time I got to the level of conditioning I am seeking I had to do something drastic to break through at this same weight: Juice Fast. I was introduced to the practice by watching the movie Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead, in which a man named Joe Cross drank only juice for 60 days and lost a huge amount of weight and was able to stop taking prescription meds in the process. I did an eight day juice fast and dropped eight pounds. I broke my pateau and stayed beneath it for years.
So, I'm writing this for accountability's sake. I've been tempted to do a juice fast as a fast track to weight loss, but what I do must be sustainable, and one cannot go on a permanent diet of juice, even if that were enjoyable! However, I've gotten back on a path of healthy diet and exercise, which I will continue after this juice fast. I've got eight more pounds to lose by the end of the year, or roughly 7.5% body fat. I should be able to accomplish that by pulling out the big guns and drinking nothing but juice until, hmmmm, until when? How about Christmas Eve, which is nine days away, so that would be 10 days of juice fasting if you count both today and Christmas Eve day. I'll eat again after our Christmas Eve candlelight service.
I'll weigh in (pun intended) on what is happening along the journey, so stay tuned….

Gratitude: The Power to Transform
Tony Perkins
This isn't the idyllic Norman Rockwell backdrop to Thanksgiving that most Americans would have chosen. With every negative headline, every crisis, gratitude is probably the last thing on most people's minds. We're hunting for bargains on turkeys and cautiously filling up grocery carts amid skyrocketing prices, but how many of us are actually stopping to look beyond the sting of the present to reflect on our true blessings -- and what kind of difference would it make if we did?
As difficult as life is right now for so many people, Professor Jeffrey Froh, author of Making Grateful Kids, says, "that's when you really have to do your best to scan your environment and take in the blessings that continue to abound [and]… acknowledge the transcendent source -- that God is the supreme benefactor, the divine giver of life. That's when we'll put ourselves in a better place." It's the powerful recognition that, "When I leave work today, I may not make it home. I may never see my family again. And that doesn't mean we live in fear," Dr. Froh says. "It means understanding that this life is a gift that we don't deserve. And when you start to really grasp that -- that God loved you into existence -- you can use that energy to start turning things around."
Would that be easier if things were good? Absolutely. But gratitude isn't just for times of plenty. And the history of our country proves it.
It was 400 years ago that the first recorded Thanksgiving took place on American soil. And as the celebration gets underway in Plymouth, Massachusetts, we still have a lot to learn from the brave settlers who hosted that first meal. "These were not like other men," the late Peter Marshall wrote in his book, The Light and The Glory. "The more adversity mounted against them, the harder they prayed -- never giving in to despair, to murmuring, to any of the petty jealousies that split and divide." And yet, when you think about all they had to endure in those first 10 months, losing almost half of their company to death, it's hard to believe they didn't just throw up their hands and give up.
For them, gratitude was a choice. It was a decision to see God's hand at work, even when everything around them screamed they'd been deserted. Despite the harshest of conditions, they never stopped trusting God's promises. And where would we be, as a nation, if they had?
At a lot of points in our country's history, Thanksgiving arrived in the darkest of chapters. Two years into the Civil War, the most divided America has ever been, 51,000 men and boys lay dead on the fields of Gettysburg when a letter crossed President Lincoln's desk. It was sent by a woman in Philadelphia named Sarah Josepha Hale. For more than 17 years she'd written to presidents, governors, and dozens of other leaders -- pleading with them to invoke a national day of gratitude. Almost none of them responded.
But something about a fixed day of thanksgiving struck a chord with Lincoln, who saw his broken and tattered nation on the brink. On the third day of October 1863, he decided to take a tradition the country had only sporadically celebrated since George Washington and make it permanent. "In the midst of a civil war unequalled in magnitude and severity," Lincoln wrote, it was time to thank God for His mercy, for freedom, and for the deliverance the country wouldn't witness for another two long years. "Heal the wounds of the nation," he prayed in his proclamation, "and restore it."
It wasn't unlike the difficult days of the second world war, when families gathered around tables with empty chairs, waiting for news from overseas. Some soldiers would mark those holidays by worshipping in the bombed-out ruins of St. Andrew's Parish in England -- the same church where the pilgrims met to pray before leaving for America some 320 years earlier. Others ate turkey legs on the battlefield, a rare taste of home that had been shipped across the dangerous Atlantic just to remind people what they were fighting for.
By 1944, five months after the allies had stormed the beaches of Normandy, the fighting still raged across Holland, Belgium, and France. Winston Churchill could not know, as he stood in the Royal Albert Hall on November 23rd that Hitler was about to unleash the last great German offensive in Western Europe. All he knew, as the Americans and British gathered to pray, was this: "Always there has been this desire for thanksgiving, and never, I think, has there been more justification, more compulsive need than now."
Seventy-seven years later, the struggles are different, but our choice is the same: will we be grateful? Will we put aside what we see for what we believe? It's the kind of discipline that looks past hardship to hope. It's what the Apostle Paul, who understood suffering better than anyone, meant when he told believers in Thessalonica, "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ for you" (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18).
He didn't say rejoice when the economy is good, and gas prices are low. He said "give thanks in all circumstances" -- whether the people you trust are in power, whether the pandemic or a government mandate has taken your job, even when the country you love is breaking apart.
These last two years have been long. The only thing Americans seem united about is how divided we are. But there's also something else we can agree on as country: we've survived worse. The human heart hasn't changed. And if there's one virtue that has the power to transform it, it's gratitude. A common purpose -- healing -- that starts with a common theme: thanks. Could that be what it takes to restore hope and true freedom in America? This Thanksgiving, there's only one way to find out.
