Lucknow: The Uttar Pradesh government has now made it mandatory for all postgraduate medical students in the state to serve for, at least, 10 years in the government sector upon completion of their studies.
Students who fail to do so will be required to pay a fine of Rs one crore.
According to Additional Chief Secretary (Health), Amit Mohan Prasad, if PG medical students in the state drop out of the government job before completing 10 years, they will be fined Rs one crore, Amit Mohan Prasad also said that such students will be debarred from the course for the next three years.
The decision has apparently been taken to deal with the shortage of specialized doctors in the state-run hospitals and medical establishments.
Prasad also said that over 15,000 posts have been created for doctors in the state-run hospitals across the state and as many as 11,000 MBBS doctors are currently occupying these posts.
The state government has further stated that MBBS doctors employed in rural government hospitals for at least one year will get concessions in the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) PG exam.
Similarly, those with two years of experience in a rural government hospital will get a 20-point rebate in the NEET exam while those with three years of experience will get a rebate of 30 points.
With this decision, it will be extremely difficult for the postgraduate medical students to opt for jobs in the private sector unless they are ready to pay the fine of Rs one crore.

An American adventure in the Antonioni vein—visually rich and emotionally mysterious.
Part Mafia murder mystery, part novel of ideas, but most of all a love story, The Sadness of Antonioni follows Hank Morelli, a young assistant professor of film obsessed with Antonioni's L'Avventura. As he embarks on an unlikely romance with a Wendy's cashier, he is also drawn into the mystery of his grandfather's underworld connections and tempted by his department chair and his department chair's mysterious girlfriend to take part in a monstrous film project they are planning. Haunted throughout by the terror of time's raw present without exit, The Sadness of Antonioni is an American adventure in the Antonioni vein—visually rich and emotionally mysterious—in which an unlikely young couple navigates the difficult waters of their relationship, each suffering the remnants of a violent past that must be resolved if they hope to stay together. Heartrending and unsparing, yet with a persistent comic vein, this is Frank Lentricchia's seventh and most ambitious and disturbing novel to date.
Frank Lentricchia is Katherine Everett Gilbert Professor of Literature at Duke University. He is the author or editor of many books of literary criticism and theory, as well as seven novels, including The Italian Actress and The Music of the Inferno, both also published by SUNY Press; Lucchesi and The Whale; and The Book of Ruth.


The Dainese Freccia 72 jacket is another style in their is a limited edition Settantadue collection of jackets. Settantadue means "seventy two" and Freccia means "arrow". This jacket style is offered in either a solid leather or perforated leather version. Both versions are a classic Cafe style. The Freccia 72 comes with Dainese Pro-Armor in the shoulders and elbows and a compartment for a back pad which is optional.
Take a look at the close-up photos of each jacket style to get a good idea of the look and feel. The solid leather version in three colors is sold on this product page and you can take the link below to view the perforated version. Both versions offer the same fit. Of course, the solid leather jacket will work best for those riding in a cooler temp range where the perforated version is better for warmer weather use. One thing I really like about the perforated jacket is how the micro-perforations cover nearly the entire jacket except for the leather right near the seams. It's a sharp look, but also adds to the jacket's sturdiness. Where the jacket is stitched together is solid leather which is stronger than the perforated leather. That treatment is even done around the pockets, stripes and main zipper too. I really don't know how they do this, but I'm impressed.


text: 10 10 C. E. BARNS. PHILADELPHIA SHOW. MARCH 24, 1913. HANDERS & MELLISS. 10 min. in one. These fellows have the merit of working hard to please their audience and have an act that makes a fairly good opener with a little piano-playing and some eccentric and acrobatic dancing. Both work straight. Fairly strong hand at the close. BRADSHAW BROS. 9 min. F.S. Both men work eccentric. One is a French knockabout comedian, the other a scarecrow. Use two chairs, long table and mat. Do some extraordinary contortion work, the comedy element being the best feature of the act. Laughter and applause throughout and closed very well. PAULINE MORAN. 12 min in one. Miss Moran has a strong voice and comical facial expressions. Sang five songs, all of which went over in good shape with plenty of applause, particularly the parodies at the finish. WILLIAM H. THOMPSON & CO. 24 min. F.S. "An Object Lesson." Advance applause for Mr. Thompson. A play founded on the often-used situation of a pretty woman married to an elderly man and her intrigue with a former lover. Mr. Thompson gets everything out of the situations and the lines that is in the Frederic Sargent play, and Miss Wilson is a very pretty and capable actress. Held the attention of the audience strong and was well applauded at the finish. ALEXANDER & SCOTT. 13 min. in one. This act held the spot fairly well and gained quite some applause at the surprise of the unmasking at the finish. All in all, think the act was more or less a disappointment considering the way it went when last here. This may be the fault of the selections or the fact that it has been seen too often or the holiday audience may not have appreciated it. KLUTING'S ANIMALS. 13 min. F.S. A score or more of French poodles, fox terriers and other dogs, with cats, pigeons and bunnies beside. Use a long table and employ hurdles, rubber balls and other paraphernalia. An act that particularly pleased the children as their laughter could be heard all over the house. Closed strong after the balloon with the jumping cats. JAMES THORTON. 21 min. in one. Mainly a new line of material that is after his usual manner and exceptionally good. Kept the audience in roars of laughter and made a big finish. GUS EDWARDS' KID KABARET. 33 min. This is one of the best of the Edward sketches, It is beautifully costumed and the stage set is brilliant, the songs are good, the business lively and the juvenile cast leaves nothing to be desired from the standpoint. A mighty good feature for closing a holiday week bill. KINETOGRAPH. "King Cotton." Very instructive and photographically, beautiful. "Just Missed Him." One of the best comedy films we have had. GENERAL REMARKS. A jammed house today seemed to like every feature on the bill and it filled all requirements for an Easter holiday week. CUTS GUS EDWARDS' KID KABARET: Expression "Remove the ladies' clothes;" also the Mock Prayer. JAMES THORNTON: Expression "God bless her."


We haven't been able to reach everyone yet, so I thought I would post this here just in case: one of our own is seriously ill and in need of prayers and support. If you don't know what I am talking about, please message me and I'll update you privately and get you looped in with everyone else.
And because I haven't said it in a while, this seems like a good time to say again: I am deeply grateful for the amazing friendships I have made over the years in this community, many of which started from a simple shared interest in Magne's music and art. Surely he could never have known, back when he started his own sites online in 2004, the kind of bonds which would result from what essentially was just good promotion sense ;-) Geography may have changed, but the friendship and love among us is as strong as ever. So thank you, Magne (and Morten and Paul), for the wonderful friends I have found through you.

There are only four heart pieces hidden in the game in total, but they are as useful as ever. Each one will increase your health.
Start outside of Parapa Palace (the first dungeon in the game). Go south, and you'll eventually go into a side-scrolling scene where you have to jump from ledge to ledge, avoiding the floating bubbles. After you've dealt with the side scrolling stage, keep following the path south and you'll see a heart piece surrounded by some forest. Upon entering the forest you will encounter a Goriya. Once you've taken care of the Goriya, you will be able to get the first heart piece.
Note: You need to have gotten the hammer from the cave at the end of the Death Mountain in order to get this heart piece. Start at Rauru Village, immediately south of the village you'll notice a rock blocking your path. Smash the rock with the hammer, then head to your right to find another rock blocking a cave entrance. Smash the rock and enter the cave. At the end of the cave is another heart piece.
Start at Nabooru Village, and follow the path to the east until you reach the Island palace. Starting at the edge of the island, go left ten spaces, up four spaces, then keep going right until you go into another side scrolling screen. Use the Jump spell in order to jump up and get another heart piece.
Go to where the sixth dungeon, the Hidden Palace, is. Go to the beach, just to the south. Keep walking along the edge of the beach, and you will eventually run into a hidden spot where the final heart piece is located!

Those annoying infomercials that clog up the late-night airwaves as they hawk everything from perfect abs to greaseless grills? Well, you can thank Ron Popeil for those.
Popeil was the pitchman for Ronco, the company that brought the world such life-changing gadgetry as the Pocket Fisherman, Chop-O-Matic hand food processor, GLH (Good Looking Hair) Spray, and of course, the Showtime Rotisserie Oven. Popeil was the first to use quick-hitting infomercials to hawk those products, and he also coined the phrase "Set it and Forget it" for his best-selling rotisserie oven – all you had to do to cook a perfect rotisserie chicken was just set it and forget it. The bird would come out all juicy perfection when done.
Since then, the term "Set it and Forget it" has become ubiquitous for 401(k) investment plans that use target-date funds as their primary investment vehicle. Target-date funds usually include a mix of stocks and bonds that automatically transition away from stocks to more conservative asset allocations as the targeted retirement date draws near. That "Set it and Forget it" approach is the main reason why target-date funds have grown so much in popularity – these funds provide unseasoned retirement investors with a simple investment solution. All they have to do is make regular contributions and forget about their money; it grows on its own, it re-allocates automatically, and the account is all juicy perfection upon retirement.
"Set it and Forget it" is excellent for cooking chicken using Ronco's rotisserie oven, but it's hardly the best investment strategy to grow your hard-earned retirement money. Rocket Dollar account holders can leverage the power of Self-Directed retirement accounts for a much more proactive – and personal – retirement investment strategy.
One of the reasons why target-date funds have grown so much over the past decade is due to reforms enacted through the Pension Protection Act of 2006. While the act had many elements, a first reform was that it allowed employers to automatically enroll workers in defined contribution plans if they did not select their investment options when they enrolled in their company's 401(k) plan.
There are several flaws with target-date funds, however. First, target-date funds are a blind investment. You put in your money, and hopefully, when you retire at age 65, your modest contributions have grown into a retirement nest egg. For me, that's putting too much trust in having someone else determine how you invest your money. There's no room for diversification or alternate investment strategies – you are bound to follow the investment philosophy of the fund provider and aren't allowed to make tactical shifts in investments based on changing market dynamics.
Before starting Rocket Dollar, I worked as a traditional retirement plan consultant for 14 years, and I can assure you that "Set it and Forget it" is not the best strategy to grow a 401(k) or IRA. Simply put, you can't just sit back and hope things will work out OK when you look at your account statements. You can't neglect a 401(k) for decades on end and think the result at retirement will be the best possible outcome.
Vanguard, Fidelity and T. Rowe Price are the leading providers of target-date funds, and they've reaped millions in fees from these accounts since target-date funds typically have pretty high fees. It's the crown jewel for these companies to win a target-date option from employers – they usually constitute 70 percent of overall retirement account investments.
Target-date funds have generally served people well when the stock market goes up, but it's not a sustainable investment strategy for a bear market. Retirement investors should strive for true 21st-century diversification in their retirement portfolio by including a wide range of alternative investments and asset classes that are not affected by the performance of the market. These assets provide a hedge against the inevitable market downturns and corrections that can shave tens of thousands of dollars off the net worth of retirement portfolios – or even reduce them to rubble.
Rocket Dollar allows investors to harness the power of the Self-Directed Solo 401(k) or Self-Directed IRA by investing in assets not related to stocks and bonds, such as real estate, private equity, peer-to-peer loans, cryptocurrencies, and many others.
Furthermore, retirement investors can allocate funds to things that truly matter to them, such as business loans to local entrepreneurs or rental income properties that provide homes for families in their neighborhoods. These investments have personal attachments that can't be found in target-date funds or other standard financial instruments. While these tax-deferred investments often provide above-market returns, their real strength lies in their ability to empower community investment that's intertwined with investor beliefs and personal connections. Rocket Dollar enables retirement investors to go further with their money and pursue many different tax-deferred investment options that have deep personal relationships.


An elastomeric roof (or cool roof) is one of the best investments you can make on your property. Coating your Springdale roof is the best solution if you are in need of a stronger system that will resist leads and weathering for years to come. We offer free consultations on roofing projects. Just call (301) 232-3342 today.
The benefits to enhancing your Springdale roof with a cool roofing system are many. You will receive unmatched water resistance and weather resistance capabilities to your roof. The super-strong coating system will allow the entire top layer of your building the ability to expand and contract. This is beneficial because the flexibility compensates for the natural swaying and shifting that buildings constantly experience due to wind, temperature changes and settling.
Our roofing experts in Springdale specialize in elastomeric roofing. Elastomeric roofs are rubber based and can be applied in most colors imaginable. Colors can also be customized to suit your specifications. Most home and business owners in Springdale choose roof coatings in white because it best reflects solar rays, making the building extremely energy efficient. The building stays cooler, reducing HVAC costs and the natural aging of the building due to the sun's powerful rays is slowed considerably.


I went to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston with my mother today. We couldn't have picked a better day. It was beautiful out, almost 60 degrees.
We went to see Hollywood Glamour: fashion & jewelry from the silver screen. We try to see every fashion exhibit that comes to town. This one was small, but lovely.
This is what the room looks like when you enter. They did a lovely job arranging things. There are designs by Coco Chanel, Edith Head & others.
These were my two favorite pieces, both designed by Travis Blanton. On the left, a silk crepe, silk chiffon & fox fur hostess gown worn by Marlene Dietrich in Desire. On the right, a silk chiffon gown embroidered with glass beads & lame thread worn by Carole Lombard in No Man of Her Own.
Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

Пире́й (, ) — третий по величине город в Греции, на северо-восточном побережье залива Сароникос Эгейского моря. Узел железных дорог Пирей — Афины — Салоники и . Пирейский порт — главный внешнеторговый порт Греции (через который проходит около 50 % внешнеторговых грузов страны; грузооборот 20 млн т в 2007 году), аванпорт Афин. Крупнейший торговый и промышленный центр Греции. Благодаря интенсивному промышленному и жилищному строительству Пирей сливается с Афинами, входит в состав Больших Афин. Расположен на высоте 2 метра над уровнем моря, в 8 километрах к юго-западу от центра Афин. Административный центр одноимённой общины и одноимённой периферийной единицы в периферии Аттика. Население —  человек по переписи 2011 года.

В городе находится Археологический музей Пирея.

История названия
Название, вероятно, связано с глаголом , что подтверждается аналогичными названиями портовых поселений в Коринфе и на Чёрном море (древнегреческий город Амис (современный турецкий город Самсун), находящийся в основании единственной крупной дороги от побережья на взгорье во внутрианатолийские земли, носил некоторое время название , что засвидетельствовано монетами).

История

Современной береговой линии прежде не существовало, южная часть Афинской равнины до Мосхатона была покрыта морем мезокайнозойского океана Неотетис. В конце третичного периода образовалась восточная часть побережья, а на западе — крупный остров. В четвертичном периоде река Кифисос медленно сформировала аллювиальными отложениями побережье бухты Фалирон, которое существует в современном виде с доисторического времени, о чём свидетельствуют археологические находки поселений и кладбищ того времени. Остров превратился в Пирейский полуостров. В значительной степени низменность в пирейском районе Неон-Фалирон, известная как  («Морская равнина»), была всё ещё покрыта водой в классический период, о чём пишет Гарпократион. Эта низменность и в настоящее время затапливается во время проливных дождей.

До архаического периода портом Афин являлся дем Фалер. Около 483—481 гг. до н. э. Фемистокл укрепил Пирей для защиты созданного флота триер. С тех пор Пирей стал торговой и военной гаванью, опорным пунктом Афинского полиса, столицы Морского союза. Для противодействия осадам порт в 461—456 гг. до н. э. при Перикле был соединён с городом «Длинными стенами» (26 километров). Третьей стеной соединили Афины с демом Фалер. Внутри укреплённого района могло укрыться всё население Аттики. После 446 года до н. э. Пирей был перестроен по Гипподамовой системе.

В 86 году до н. э. Пирей был разрушен римским полководцем Луцием Корнелием Суллой. Во время османского владычества (XV—XIX вв.) исчезло даже название Пирей. После Греческой революции и Лондонского протокола 1830 года, признавшего независимость Греции, Пирей стал расти как порт и промышленный центр. Современный Пирей возведён по плану 1835 года немецкого архитектора , возобновившего античную планировку.

В 1869 году в Пирей пришла первая в Греции железнодорожная линия , соединившая его с Афинами, была открыта станция «Пирей».

В ноябре 1918 года в Пирее состоялся учредительный съезд Коммунистической партии Греции.

10 марта 1923 года близ города потерпел крушение греческий буксир «Але́ксандрос Ζ», в трагедии погибло 150 человек.

В 1938 году в городе был основан Университет Пирея, впоследствии один из ведущих вузов страны, который готовит специалистов в области экономики, бизнес-менеджмента и информационных технологий.

В период Второй мировой войны (1939—1945) Пирей был сильно разрушен.

В 1982 году введена в эксплуатацию паромная переправа «Европа — Ближний Восток», соединившая город Пирей с Латакией в Сирии через Средиземное море. Сейчас Пирей почти слился с Афинами, добраться в него можно отовсюду по Афинскому метро.

Экономика

Промышленность

Помимо порта в Пирее в 1970-х годах находились предприятия металлургической, машиностроительной, химической, цементной, пищевкусовой (пищевой и табачной), стекольной и бумажной промышленности, по выпуску алюминиевых и керамических изделий, стройматериалов, ковровое и канатное производство, а также ТЭС.

ТЭС в пирейском районе Неон-Фалирон была построена в 1903 году и закрыта в 1972 году. С 1986 года является историческим памятником.

Химические и цементные предприятия в 80-х годах XX века были закрыты или перенесены за пределы города из экологических соображений.

Транспорт
На площади Одису находится станция «Пирей», являющаяся конечной станцией зелёной линии (линии 1) афинского метрополитена и станцией Организации железных дорог Греции. Также в городе находится железнодорожная станция .

Железнодорожные станции «Пирей» и «Лефка» обслуживают линию Пирей — Салоники и линию Пирей — Патры, а также  Пирей — Аэропорт и  Пирей — Кьятон .

Пирейский порт

Судоходство является основной составляющей экономики города. Пирей — один из центров мирового судоходства. Пирейская Акти́-Миау́ли (, набережная адмирала Миаулиса Андреас-Вокоса) известна в мировых судоходных кругах так же, как Лондонский Сити известен в финансовых. На относительно небольшой площади здесь располагаются сотни офисов судоходных компаний и смежных с судоходством фирм.

В Пирее представлены все члены IACS (МАКО), то есть основных морских классификационных обществ, включая Российский морской регистр судоходства.

Пирей также является узлом пассажирских и автомобильных паромных линий на острова Эгейского архипелага и в страны Восточного Средиземноморья.

В порт круглый год заходят крупнейшие круизные лайнеры мира, а для некоторых круизных фирм Пирей является базовым или начальным портом круиза.

Как признание вклада транспортов типа «Либерти» в становлении флота греческих судовладельцев в первый флот мира, в порту Пирея, возле старого сухого дока Василиадиса, выставлено музейное судно SS Hellas Liberty.

Выделяется мощная морская отрасль с сетью портов и вспомогательных сооружений.

В Пирее находятся судостроительные и судоремонтные предприятия.

Община Пирей
Община Пирей () включает в себя город Пирей и необитаемый остров Пситалея. Площадь общины — 10,865 квадратных километров. На местных выборах в 2014 году избран димархом Иоанис Моралис ().

Община создана в 1835 году и была одной из общин, на которые делилась епархия Аттика. В 1925 году из Пирея выделился город Неон-Фалирон, который в 1946 году стал самостоятельной общиной. В 1931 году из общины Афин выделился город Куцикари и присоединился к Пирею. В 1933 году выделились города Неа-Кокинья и Перама, ставшие самостоятельными общинами (ныне община Никея-Айос-Иоанис-Рендис и Перама). Выделился город Неа-Иконио и присоединился к общине Пераме. В 1934 году выделились города Куцикари и Тамбурия с образованием общин Коридалос и Тамбурион. К общине Тамбуриону присоединились Амфиали, Аналипсис (), Анацаси, Эвгения, Айос-Еорьос. В 1950 году выделился город Драпецона с образованием общины Драпецоны (ныне — община Керацини-Драпецона).

В 1968 году община Неон-Фалирон была упразднена и Неон-Фалирон присоединён к Пирею. С тех пор община оставалась неизменной и сохранилась в таком виде после программы «Калликратис» в 2010 году.

The Words and Pictures Book Club: "Angelica" by Miranda Miller
Our next Words & Pictures book club meets on
Thursday 20th January at 2pm
at The Pebbles Cafe in the old Havens building on Hamlet Court Road
to discuss (amongst other things no doubt!):
"Angelica: Paintress of Minds" by Miranda Miller [2020, Barbican Press]
There is a great article by Miranda Miller about Angelica Kauffman in Historia [here] in which she notes:
Like us, Angelica lived at a time of enormous change and was often bewildered by it. At the end of her life, still anxious to avoid scandal, she made a bonfire of most of her private papers. In my novel I've presumptuously tried to bring them back to life.
And a number of Kauffman's paintings can be seen on the Royal Academy site [here] including

Happy reading, and I look forward to seeing you on Thursday!
Words and Pictures: some exciting new books for 2022!
With our "Words & Pictures" book club starting up again next week, I thought I'd highlight just some of the rather exciting art and fiction books I've spotted coming over the next few months.
First up in January is "Bacon in Moscow" (Cheerio Publishing) by James Birch – a fabulous memoir of setting up an exhibition of Francis Bacon's paintings in Moscow in 1988 – as with everything at the tail end of the USSR, its success was more by luck than judgement. From the Colony Room in London to the Artists Union of Russia, the young curator finds himself in the mix of all sorts of intriguing characters including a KGB officer, a glamorous young fashion designer, and of course Francis Bacon himself!
March brings "Edith and Kim", the new novel by Charlotte Philby (The Borough Press) and, half-way through a proof copy, I can say it is absolutely brilliant! The Kim of the title is Kim Philby; the Edith is Edith Suschitsky, better known as Edith Tudor-Hart who until now I had only thought was a rather wonderful photographer but, as the archival research that underpins the novel reveals, Edith worked secretly for the Communist Party. Indeed it was Edith who introduced Kim Philby to his Soviet handler. Charlotte Philby brings all the suspense of such a dangerous and difficult life to the fore, from the Bauhaus to the Isokon building – and, as a reader, one finds oneself looking at the world through very different eyes.
"Letters to Gwen John" by the artist Celia Paul looks equally as fascinating:
Letters to Gwen John is Paul's imagined correspondence with Gwen John, whose life and work have loomed so large in hers. These intimate, passionate, haunting letters allow Paul to reach across eras, to weigh up the sacrifices she has made, and to explore the rich possibilities of a life apart. With illuminating insights into the life and work of Gwen John, Letters to Gwen John is a unique form of memoir and conversation, and an unforgettable insight into a life devoted to making art.
Coming in April, the publishers (Jonathan Cape) say the book will include more than fifty artworks, reproduced in colour, by both Gwen John and Celia Paul.
"Firebird (A Bloomsbury Love Story)" is Susan Sellers' new novel (to be published by Edward Everard Root in May). With the backdrop of Diaghilev's Ballets Russes on the one hand and the Bloomsbury Group on the other, we are in 1921 when the ballet star Lydia Lopokova meets economist Maynard Keynes: "Vividly recreating Lydia's journey from Tsarist St Petersburg to Jazz Age London via the Paris of Picasso, this richly imagined novel celebrates the love story of two of the twentieth century's most dazzling original figures" – I can't wait!
May 2022 also sees the publication of Frances Spalding's "The Real and the Romantic: English Art Between Two World Wars" (Thames & Hudson) – A fresh look at a period of English art that has surged in interest and popularity in recent years, authored by one of Britain's leading art historians and critics – which will bring a thrill to everyone who comes to our Art, Books & Culture Group discussions each month as Frances explores how the modernism of abstraction and Surrealism interweaves with British tradition and the Romantic spirit of place.
I can't resist also adding in a novel from last year which will come out in paperback in June and which I think is absolutely tremendous: Michele Roberts's "Cut Out" (Sandstone Press). It tells the tale of Denis – whose mother kept a highly significant secret from him – and Clemence who, now elderly, remembers the time she worked with Matisse. The story cuts between the two characters and past and present time-frames – eventually unfolding to reveal the secret – as, in-between, Michele Roberts positions word-pictures based on photographs taken of the elderly Matisse as he made his now famous cut-outs. What's especially extraordinary is how, without missing a beat or making it feel forced, Roberts subtly uses language and description to conjure almost unconsciously so many of Matisse's paintings in the mind's eye.
It's going to be a great year for us arty-booky folk methinks!


Quantification of secondary mineralization or cementation within natural fractures has not been considered in previous petrophysical dual-porosity models. This is, however, of paramount importance because morphology of the fractures indicates that they can be open or partially or completely mineralized.
If cementation with secondary minerals is complete, the recovery of hydrocarbons will be generally very small because hydrocarbons will not have any way to move from matrix to natural fracture and then to the wellbore. However, if secondary mineralization is partial, production rates and recoveries could be quite significant because the secondary minerals would play the role of natural proppant agents helping to maintain the fractures open as the reservoir is depleted. If the fractures are initially open, production rates and recoveries could be large or small depending on the relative orientation of the natural fractures with respect to in-situ stresses.
These observations lead to the key objective of this paper: to develop an analytical dual-porosity model using resistance networks for quantifying petrophysical fracture parameters such as degree of cementation (ß), formation factor (F), dual-porosity exponent (m), and tortuosity (t) for different degrees of mineralization (cementation) within the fractures. The method further allows estimating matrix and fracture porosities and fracture compressibility on the basis of the amount of secondary mineralization.
Use of the new dual-porosity model is explained with two core data sets drawn from tight gas formations in the United States and Canada. A comparison is made with results of current dual-porosity models that do not take into account secondary mineralization within the natural fractures and tortuosity.
The conclusion is reached that the proposed dual-porosity model provides a valuable new quantitative tool for petrophysical and reservoir-engineering evaluations of naturally fractured reservoirs. This is illustrated with two numerical examples that show determination of original petroleum in place and recovery. One example is volumetric, and the other one is based on the material-balance calculations.

Georgia Superior Court, Chatham County letter
Creator: Georgia. Superior Court (Chatham County)
Title: Georgia Superior Court, Chatham County letter
Extent: 0.05 cubic feet (1 folder)
For several decades after the American Revolution (1775-1783), Georgia was the only state that did not have a supreme court to review the decisions made by the trial courts. Until then, the courts were divided regionally. The Supreme Court was not established until 1845. George Walton (c.1749-1804) served in many political roles in Georgia during and after the Revolutionary War. He was elected to the Provincial Congress and a delegate to the Second Continental Congress in 1776 where he was one of three Georgians to sign the Declaration of Independence. After the Revolution, he served as Chief Justice of Georgia, 1783-1786, as Governor in 1789 and later as a U.S. Senator and justice of the state supreme court.
This collection consists of an eight page, unsigned letter to the Chatham County Superior Court Grand Jury, dated March 1895. The letter discusses the Grand Jury's service over the past year and has quotes from presentments for the December 1893 term, the March 1894 term, and the June 1894 term. Topics include drainage, public roads and bridges, the county map, public works, and the convict camp.

I've spent hours searching for a commercially-made router bit that has the right dimensions to cut the dovetail slots in a traditional reed pan. It needs to be an unusually small diameter, but if you want to be able to cut the top slots after installing the chamber side walls as it was done originally (some of them undercut the walls), it needs to have a disproportionately long 'neck' between the cutter and the shank. On the plus side, the slot is quite shallow so the neck doesn't need to be ridiculously skinny. In the end I decided to make my own.
Next I extended some more stock from the collet and turned the 'neck'. On my first attempt, swarf obscured my view of the work and I accidentally retracted the carriage too far to the right and put a groove in the cone area. There was no option but to start again! The second time, I used the tailstock as a right-hand carriage stop to protect the cone.
Programming the CNC mill to machine the slots is surprisingly complicated. The CAM software I'm using doesn't understand how to cut a pocket with a tool that can't plunge straight the workpiece and needs to enter and leave the edge of the material. I found a way to trick it into doing what I need, but the entire process filled nearly two pages of my logbook, and I need to do it all again for every size of frame I need to cut!
Another problem I ran into is that the outer dimensions of the antique Lachenal reeds I've been copying are a bit variable. Not by much, but a tenth of a mm change in width makes the difference between a snug fit and a loose one. This one fits very well – I can throw the block of wood in the air and catch it and the reed is still nicely seated – but the reed taken from the slot next to it (nominally the same frame size) is loose enough that it would fall out. I think when the instrument was built, somebody must have spent a while individually fitting each reed to its slot. Luckily my CNC mill (which I'm using for both the frames and pans) is repeatable to tight enough tolerances that I shouldn't have this problem.
Why not settle on a uniform shape, independent of reed size? One angle for the taper, and the same "tip circle diameter". But that's maybe where you are going.
Good question, I have indeed been considering that. Also the fact that eventually there's no reason why I couldn't have a different vent slot length for every pitch (in order to make the profiling a bit simpler), and make the frame length some constant amount longer than the vent slot, so each pitch would end up with a different frame length. If the taper and tip diameter are standardised, it would be easy to swap around reeds that are close in pitch (mainly applicable to Anglo players).
I measured the frame sizes from a Lachenal English. There are 11 sizes, they seem to be nominally about 2mm thick (though a bit distorted from the punching process), and all of them have a 4° taper. The shortest size has a tip diameter of about 5.55mm and the longest is about 6.05. Between the two though, it isn't a linear progression: most of them are around 5.9mm.

Britney Spears Quotes
Aside from her chart-topping songs, Britney Spears fascinates the music industry with her genuine and inspirational quotes. Here are some of them.
For me, success is a state of mind. I feel like success isn't about conquering something; it's being happy with who you are.
If I was to pick a cartoon character I am most like, I would say Daisy Duck because she is very stubborn, she has a very feminine sense, and she knows what she likes.
I'm definitely picky about what projects I take on. They have to be things I'm passionate about. I actually get to be creative when it comes to my mobile game. It's really cool.
I'm a hometown girl, and my personality at home is the opposite of the performer in me. But then, when I'm home and haven't done anything for a while, I get really itchy and nervous and weird-feeling.
I would like to be called an inspiration to people, not a role model – because I make mistakes like everybody else. When I'm offstage, I'm just like everybody else.
I think with anybody who's doing well in the public eye or whatever, there's always gonna be a shift because people don't wanna see somebody happy all the time. And they're gonna try to take shots at people.
I don't allow anybody to change me. I still walk outta my house in rollers and I take walks. I do not care what people think.
I like meeting all my fans and signing autographs, although it can all get a bit crazy. Yesterday, for example, a boy just came over and planted a big kiss on my face! I was like, 'Hello?'
I always wanted to be a singer, it's what I wanted to do since I was little. I'm doing it now and I couldn't be happier.
About Our Britney Spears Quotes
Toxic, Hit Me Baby One More Time, Oops!… I Did It Again, and Womanizerㅡ these are just some of Britney Spears' most popular songs. Born December 2, 1981 in Mississippi, Spears was already musically inclined even at a young age. In 1997, he signed with Jive Record and that became the start of her long-running career.


By Vilma Vodanovic The car driver and the bus driver were both entitled to assume that the motorcyclist, who was somewhere to the rear of them, would hold back and let them complete their manoeuvres – decision in Landau v The Big Bus Company Limited, Pawel Zeital discussed.
Credit Hire Update – Cost of hire not recoverable for Claimant taxi company – damages limited to loss of profit.
By Catherine Duffy The Secretary of State for Justice has announced that fees for whiplash medical reports will be cut.
Poetic Justice and Ex Turpi Causa – Can a claimant claim if injured during a criminal act?


But Seriously, Though: What Is Oil Pulling?
But back to oil pulling: It's a buzzy term, but seriously, what is it? Recall this honest firsthand account from Byrdie's editorial director, who learned one thing: Oil pulling is not is tasty. In short, oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic tradition of swishing oil in your mouth on an empty stomach for at least 20 minutes to improve oral, and in turn, overall health.
According to Meredith Baird, the owner of Nucifera Body, a plant-based skin nourishing balm, "Oil pulling is the easiest thing to add to your morning routine, and it's a game changer." In our book, Meredith is the queen of oil pulling, so we turned to her for a step-by-step, how-to guide on the practice. Keep reading to learn how oil pulling has improved her health and how easy it is to try at home (she even has a tip for improving the taste).
Meredith tells Byrdie, "I notice that I'm less foggy and more clear on days that I oil pull." The health enthusiast began oil pulling about seven years ago in an effort to improve her dry skin and scalp issues. "I started doing it with sesame oil, the way it is typically done in Ayurvedic tradition, but I switched to coconut oil because of the added health benefits and antimicrobial properties of coconut oil," she says.
"Oil pulling works by dissolving the toxins and bacteria in your mouth, cutting through plaque, and absorbing into your skin through your gums and tongue," shares Meredith.
Step 1: "Always oil pull before brushing your teeth, drinking water, or putting anything in your mouth or your stomach in the morning. You want to do this first thing so that you are removing the toxins that have built up in your mouth overnight," she explains.
Step 2: "Swish one to two tablespoons of oil around in your mouth for at least 20 minutes. You can do this while you are showering and getting dressed. (I actually find it meditative because you can't really talk, so it is a bit of forced quiet time)," she says.
Pro tip: Meredith recommends to add an essential oil like tea tree, cinnamon, or peppermint for flavor and added health benefits.
Have you tried oil pulling? If so, has it improved your health? If not, are you willing to give it a go?

Nothing will change the facts, says Vinta Nanda
The Asian Age.
Reacting to the court order which cast doubt over her rape allegation, SHE says she has faith in the legal system.
Alok Nath and Vinta Nanda
In what could be seen as a huge relief for rape-accused Alok Nath, a session's court in Mumbai has suggested that writer-filmmaker Vinta Nanda might not be telling the truth. The court order reads, "(Vinta Nanda) remembers the entire incident, but she does not remember the date and month of the incident. In view of all these facts, the possibility cannot be ruled out that (Alok Nath) has falsely been roped in the crime."
Reacting to the court order, Vinta Nanda says, "The court has granted Alok Nath Anticipatory Bail, but conditions apply. I respect the order because I trust the process of law. Like all other predators, Alok Nath denied allegations against him and it was expected that he would do so. In his application for anticipatory bail, he has cast aspersions on my character and tried to mislead the court by cooking up stories, which are completely false and untrue."
However, Sandhya Menon who was one of those spearheading the #Metoo movement feels that there are times trauma gets better of the victim and the details may get blurred. "The statements reported as the court order in publications are all a part of Alok Nath's appeal for bail. I think this is the exact thing that women have been trying to fight for ages now, and especially with the MeToo movement: the huge burden of doubt that comes from a lapse of memory in a survivor's account. Research has consistently shown that women tend to not remember all details of the crime when they're traumatised. To hold that against the victim and jump to the baffling logic that is enough proof of a false accusation is a defeating on many levels," says Sandhya adding that Alok Nath's lawyers have not taken these things into consideration. "They cannot be seen as Justice Oza's statements. Having said this, we must remember that this was said in the context of AN's plea for anticipatory bail. This is not to be seen as a judgment of the case at all."
But Veena Gowda, a Women's Rights lawyer, feels that there wasn't any need "for the court to have given observation on the merits of the case at the stage of anticipatory bail. Court ought not to have made those observations on the merits of the case, Now that being done, the court is actually looking at the matter only from the point of view of the bail. Therefore, to that extent, it should not have any bearing on the main proceedings," she says and reiterates Sandhya's point. "There are many cases where women don't remember the date. One is that there is no statutory limitation, which means that law does emphasise that the cases can be filed after a few years. When the law provides you that option, then not remembering the exact date, ought not to be an issue, and they should look at the larger statement for the investigation. I don't think that at this stage, there are sufficient pieces of evidence before the court for the court to arrive at that kind of sweeping observation."
Veena also feels that we need to examine the way we look at the survivors of sexual assault. "There is so much trauma and all of that, and the court should consider that. That's the whole problem, as soon as women approach the legal system, it seems like that first they have to deal with not only the procedures and the labyrinth of law. But at the same time, they have to overcome certain ingrained prejudices. Not only do I have to substantiate my case, but at the same time, work against such kind of bias that mine is not a false case. There seems to be an additional burden on women that nobody else seems to have."
Vinta also feels Alok Nath was trying to mislead the court and she was compelled to clarify to the court. "I clarified each point by which Alok Nath and his team tried to mislead the court, through an intervention made by my lawyers but because the proceedings were between the state and Alok Nath, my reply was quoted limitedly in the final order. However, I must say here that I am grateful that my reply was accepted and put on record."
As for the honorable court's suggestion questioning the rape accusation Vinta says, "Everyone who knows me and knows Alok Nath personally also knows the truth and there is nothing in the world that will change those facts. I may be fighting this battle in court alone but my family, my friends and my industry all know the truth. CINTAA has already expelled Alok Nath after having concluded that I am telling the truth, after having heard not just what Alok Nath had done to me but after having heard what he has done with all the other victims of his assaults and such behaviour."
In her defence, Vinta brings up the fact that many other women have come forward with accusations of a sexual nature against Alok Nath. "Can it be that all of us Sandhya Mridul, Navneet Nishan, Himani Shivpuriji, Deepika Amin and the many other women who have still not gathered the strength to come out publicly with what they have been through because of him are lying and the one and only Alok Nath is telling the truth? When he was expelled from CINTAA, I knew that I was believed and that justice had been done. The #MeToo movement gave me the courage to speak out about what had happened to me. As of now I have limited time, as I am busy with my work. My friends and well-wishers advice me and I pay heed to them, that I should let the law take its own course. Truth is by my side."

The landscape of Lake Oulujärvi is well worth seeing, with its unique waters, beaches and pine forests. The trails of the Hiking Area go through light pine forests and on sandy banks. You can find your own favourite spot for picnic and swimming on the long sandy beaches.
The Oulujärvi Hiking Area consists of land and water areas on the island of Manamansalo and on Niskanselkä part of Lake Oulujärvi. The islands of Ykspisto, Ylä-Mulkku and Kaarresalo and parts of Honkinen, Kuostonsaari and Jylhänniemi are included in the Hiking Area. The water areas make up 64,3 sq.km. of the surface area, and 14 sq.km. consists of the islands and mainland.
The special natural features of Manamansalo include the lichen-covered heaths, the steep shoreline of Lake Oulujärvi, and the many clear forest lakes popular as fishing places. Pikes (Esox lucius) and perch (Perca fluviatilis) live naturally in lakes. In addition, rainbow trouts (Oncorhynchus mykiss) have been planted in lake Särkinen.
Lake Oulujärvi
Lake Oulujärvi is the fourth largest lake in Finland. It was under the continental ice sheet until about 9100 - 9400 years ago. The surface area of the lake ranges between 778 and 944 sq.km. because the water level is controlled. The average depth is 7 metres, and in the deepest places it is about 38 metres.
Lake Oulujärvi flows into the Gulf of Bothnia through Oulujoki River. It is connected to Lake Nuasjärvi via Kajaaninjoki River, and receives 87% of its water from the rivers Kiehimäjoki and Kajaaninjoki. The lake is part of the water system of Oulujoki River, and the waterways of Hyrynsalmi and Kuhmo. The open water areas Niskanselkä and Ärjänselkä of Lake Oulujärvi are Finland's largest continuous open water areas on a lake.
Many of the islets on the open water areas are rocky and barren, piled up by the ice, but most islands have sandy beaches. On the edges of the large open waters, there are sandy shallows, where the Brown Trout (Salmo trutta m. lacustris ) comes to feed.
Sea of Kainuu
Oulujärvi Hiking Area is located on the shores and islands of the Niskanselkä vast stretch of water in Lake Oulujärvi. The lake has three wide stretches of water. Niskanselkä is one of the vastest lake sections in Finland, and even though the number of islands is high, they are located far from each other and most of them are small. The scenery and the living conditions are similar to those of a sea and seashores. The Sea of Kainuu even smells slightly like a sea.
Waves are often large, the ice in the winter is thick and the wind blows. In the summer, the blazing sun mercilessly heats the inhabitants of the beaches and spaces between the stones.
Lake Oulujärvi has kept changing after it closed up from Ancylus Lake 9,000 years ago. Along with the land uplift after the Ice Age, the lake has flowed towards the east, to forests and mires, thus forming the vast stretches of water called Ärjänselkä and Paltaselkä. Niskanselkä is the oldest part of Lake Oulujärvi. Oulujärvi Hiking Area is part of the Rokua Geopark area designated by UNESCO . The hiking area belongs to the network of hiking areas in Finland and Estonia.
The water area of Lake Oulujärvi still varies, as the lake is regulated for the needs of power plants. The average lake area is 925 km2, but during the course of a year, the area may vary by more than one hundred square kilometres, as the shores are shallow.
Scenery Shaped by the Ice Age
The Ice Age sorted, piled up and carried stones and sand, exposed and polished rocks, as well as built the scenery. Most of the shores in Oulujärvi Hiking Area are sandy or rocky. A sandy esker range – piled up by a meltwater stream flowing under a glacier – runs from Manamansalo Island to Säräisniemi. The stonier esker core can be seen on Manamansalo Island. In ancient times, the wind also carried sand and piled up dunes on the island. Today, there are mounds with pine trees.
Hard Conditions on the Shores
For plants, it is challenging to grow on the sandy and gravel shores of a large lake. Waves and the wind move their substrate. The water level continues to rise and drop. In the spring, blocks of ice roll over the plants. In order to survive, the plants must be able to hold on and find new substrates.
The lyme grass focusses on its roots: they are long and many, serving as good anchors. Even small pieces of its roots may start growing, when the ice moves the sand and the cut off roots to a new place.
The purple loosestrife thrives close to gull communities, as it utilises the nitrogen in the droppings of the gulls. The purple loosestrife manages in the harsh conditions thanks to its strong roots and ability to ensure the pollination of its flowers by modifying the shape of its flowers in order to make them suitable for various kinds of pollinators. Its seeds are small and float a long way. In the winter, they fly, with the wind, along the ice of the lake.
Sand Forms
Over the course of time, waves and blocks of ice have crumbled the northern shore of Manamansalo Island and as a result, there are sand cliffs on the island that gradually collapse, taking trees down with them. Sand martins, which have become rare, bore their tunnel-like nests into sand cliffs.
There are small esker ponds on Manamansalo Island. According to the old lore, the soil of the islands in Lake Kivesjärvi nearby originate from those ponds. Most of the ponds are kettle holes which were formed by huge blocks of ice when the blocks slowly melted within the esker gravel. The ponds are so deep that they extend down to the groundwater level.
Lush and Rugged Elements
On Manamansalo Island, you will see mires in low depressions and on the shores of ponds. On the larger islands of Lake Oulujärvi, you may find small flood meadows on shores. During periods of high water levels, the flood meadows receive water and nutrients from the lake. Säippäsuo Mire – which is located on Kuosto Island in Oulujärvi Hiking Area – is the lushest of the flood meadows.
Most of the forests in Oulujärvi Hiking Area consist of fairly rugged pine trees in a sandy soil. Amid the young forests of Manamansalo Island, there are also older forests where the diversity, due to the old age, can already be seen.
The forests on the larger islands are slightly more nutrient-rich. There are older and scenically valuable forests on the islands of Kuosto and Kaarresalo. These forests are important to the diversity of bird species in the area. The forest management takes into account the importance of outdoor activities, scenery and the natural world.
Most of the forests in the hiking area are dry pine forests. On the islands, also spruce-mixedwood forests and older forests can be found. In the areas which are central to tourism and hiking, there are handsome pine forests and older planted forests. There are only very small areas where the forest is in its natural state. The most impressive old-growth forests can be found in Rapsunkangas and Jylhänniemi areas. Other forests in the hiking area are former landscape forests of Metsähallitus.
Oulujärvi Hiking Area is interestingly located in a transition area of both the flora and the fauna. It is the southernmost inland water area where the Arctic Tern (Sterna paradisaea) and the Common Redshank (Tringa totanus) nest. The Ruddy Turnstone (Arenaria interpres) is a sea bird which is not found on any other inland water areas but this one. The Great Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo), on its way to the Arctic Sea, can stop at Lake Oulujärvi and stay for the whole summer. Also the Caspian Tern (Sterna caspia ) has nested several times in the area.
Other bird species typical for the area include gulls, the Common Tern (Sterna hirundo), the Black-throated Diver (Gavia arctica), the Red-throated Diver (Gavia stellata) and the Red-breasted Merganser (Mergus serrator). The most common waders are the Common Sandpiper (Actitis hypoleucos), the Wood Sandpiper (Tringa glareola) and the Little Ringed Plover (Charadrius dubius). In the dry pine forest are found, for example, the Tree Pipit (Anthus trivialis), the Common Redstart (Phoenicurus phoenicurus), the Eurasian Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) and the Mistle Thrush (Turdus viscivorus).
Sea Birds on Inland Waters
Oulujärvi Hiking Area interlocks with the Lake Oulujärvi reserve of bird islands. Waterfowl are abundant and rich in species. Gulls and terns have thriving nesting communities, and there are good conditions for waders on the wetlands of the shores. Birds, such as the ruddy turnstone and the Caspian tern – which are also sighted on Lake Oulujärvi but which usually thrive in sea areas – show that the Sea of Kainuu is worth its name. During the nesting period, please do not enter the rocky and gravel shores.
Out of the lake's bird species, the lesser black-backed gull (Larus fuscus) is the most Finnish species – roughly 50 per cent of its subspecies ssp. fuscus nest in Finland. The number of these birds has decreased a great deal, which is why nesting in the Lake Oulujärvi area is important to them.
The Caspian tern (Sterna caspia) is a very large tern, whose loud croak is far from elegant. Unlike the other terns, these birds also nest as individual couples.
Fishing Waters
In Oulujärvi Hiking Area, you can go fishing on Lake Oulujärvi and at the ponds of Manamansalo Island. All fish species typical of the region reproduce in Lake Oulujärvi and in rivers that empty their waters into the lake. The smelt, which is the official fish species of Kainuu Region, swims in schools. Smelts are small fish that are very important to the lake, as pikeperches feed on them. Lake Oulujärvi has strong populations of perch, pike, pikeperch and vendace. Trout also prey on schools of vendace in the vast open stretches of the lake. In addition to recreational fishing, commercial fishing is also carried out on the lake. Read more about fishing in Oulujärvi Hiking Area.
The Manamansalo camping site offers you a pleasant base for your holiday trip. The camping site has a caravan site, cabin accommodation, saunas by reservation and a café-restaurant.
