Q: How do you generate dual tone frequencies in MATLAB? I'm interested in producing a tone frequency at runtime with the frequency and duration being variable parameters. What would be the best way of generating this sound file in MATLAB and have it accessible in the script for use later to be concatenated with other sound files generated in a similar fashion for different frequencies/durations? Thanks in advance for the comments.

A: The duration for which a given vector will play depends on the number of elements in the vector and the sampling rate. For example, a 1000-element vector, when played at 1 kHz, will last 1 second. When played at 500 Hz, it will last 2 seconds. Therefore, the first choice you should make is the sampling rate you want to use. To avoid aliasing, the sampling rate should be twice as large as the largest frequency component of the signal. However, you may want to make it even larger than that to avoid attenuation of frequencies close to the sampling rate.
Given a sampling rate of 1 kHz, the following example creates a sound vector of a given duration and tone frequency (using the LINSPACE and SIN functions):
Fs = 1000;      %# Samples per second
toneFreq = 50;  %# Tone frequency, in Hertz
nSeconds = 2;   %# Duration of the sound
y = sin(linspace(0, nSeconds*toneFreq*2*pi, round(nSeconds*Fs)));

When played at 1 kHz using the SOUND function, this vector will generate a 50 Hz tone for 2 seconds:
sound(y, Fs);  %# Play sound at sampling rate Fs

The vector can then be saved as a wav file using the WAVWRITE function:
wavwrite(y, Fs, 8, 'tone_50Hz.wav');  %# Save as an 8-bit, 1 kHz signal

The sound vector can later be loaded using the WAVREAD function. If you're going to concatenate two sound vectors, you should make sure that they are both designed to use the same sampling rate.

A: gnovice's code appears to be faulty. I think he messed up the linspace-function. You can check that yourself when comparing the same frequency with different sampling frequencies - the sound differs, which it obviously shouldn't.
(I'm stupid. When using Matlab's sound function, make sure to use the same sampling Frequency that you used to generate the tone. Otherwise, you're gonna have a bad time.)

Here's a function that wraps up the tone generation functionality.
function pureTone ( frequency, duration, amplitude, sampleFreq, save2file )
% Generate pure tones.
% Enter at least 1 argument.
% Defaults are:
%  duration    1 sec
%  amplitude   1
%  sampleFreq  48000 Hz
%  save2file   no
%--------------------
% If you want to save the tone to a file, provide a name.

switch nargin
case 0
    error('Enter a frequency.')
case 1
    duration   = 1;
    amplitude  = 1;
    sampleFreq = 48000;
    save2file  = 0;
case 2
    amplitude  = 1;
    sampleFreq = 48000;
    save2file  = 0;
case 3
    sampleFreq = 48000;
    save2file  = 0;
case 4
    save2file  = 0;
end

t = linspace( 0, duration, duration * sampleFreq );
% http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinuston
s = amplitude * sin( 2 * pi * frequency * t );

sound( s, sampleFreq );

if save2file
    wavwrite( s, sampleFreq, 32, save2file);
end

ChicGeek Comment Will Karl Lagerfeld Become The Marc Bohan of Chanel?
Marc, who? Exactly. Walk into the new Dior exhibition - Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams - at the Victoria & Albert Museum and you'll be wowed by a glamourous exhibition dedicated to one of the world's strongest fashion houses. A few rooms in, there's a recap of the previous Dior Creative Directors, in order, from after Dior's death in 1957 up until the present designer, Maria Grazia Chiuri. All getting equal billing and space is Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferrè, John Galliano, Raf Simons and Chiuri.
The least known, yet the longest there, is Marc Bohan. From 1958 to 1960, Bohan designed for the Christian Dior London line. In September 1960, Dior's creative director Yves Saint Laurent was called up for military service and Bohan was promoted to replace him. He stayed at Dior until 1989 when he was replaced by Gianfranco Ferrè.
Left - Linda in Chanel. But, will we remember this in a few decades time?
Bohan's career at Dior lasted over 30 years and yet he is almost forgotten about. Still alive, he didn't create anything long lasting directly attributed to his hand at Dior. Or, that is widely known. And this is where I bring my comparisons to Karl Lagerfeld. He lead Chanel from 1983 up until his death. That's a 36 year career, and yet in a few year's time, what direct influences will Lagerfeld leave on the French house? Will Karl Lagerfeld become the Marc Bohan of Chanel? #Discuss
Dr Kate Strasdin, Fashion Historian and Senior Lecturer in Cultural Studies at Falmouth University, says, "I think he will be remembered just because of the length of time he was at the helm and that his time coincided with the expansion of mass media. He talked about being a caricature of himself, creating his own distinctive self-image.
"As for Lagerfeld's legacy, many people criticised his work as derivative. but actually I think he was astute at managing a heritage brand, treading that line between designs that were recognisably 'Chanel' and simultaneously relevant for over 30 years....I would argue that was his distinctiveness." she says.
Looking at Lagerfeld's Chanel, he brought the house's tropes into the late 20th century, but they already existed. The tweed, the camelias, the quilting, the interlocking Cs and gold chains all existed within the archive. The most famous bag shape, the 2.55, was created in 1955 and is still a juggernaut today.
Benjamin Wild, Cultural, Historian, Writer and Lecturer, says, "For sure, there are many similarities between the men - longevity and the ability to contemporise classical styles, not least - but it is interesting to note the increasing number of voices that are coming forward to comment on Lagerfeld's less savoury social attitudes and comments. In a week where major fashion brands have withdrawn items from their Spring/Summer collections because of their perceived racism and insensitivity, it seems to be a sign of the times that Lagerfeld's character and creations are also being examined in a forensic manner as people recognise that person and portfolio cannot be - and should not be - so easily disentangled; if we are to understand Lagerfeld's contribution to fashion, we need to be frank about who he was, and this will, I think, leave for a more accurate, but disputed legacy."
Lagerfeld's tenure at Chanel was through the boom of designer brands and luxury clothes. Bohan's was in a much smaller industry and no doubt had to design few collections than the six Chanel creates every year. Lagerfeld's Chanel was much bigger, so it's interesting that even fewer designs of Lagerfeld's have stuck. But, also, today, there is now so much more competition.
It's often what comes after and how good it is that really pushes a designer into the background. When Galliano created his Dior, it was a fantasy of couture, yet still managed to leave behind his strong DNA - the Masai neck, the saddle bag and the famous Dior newspaper print are all Dior signatures still attributed to him today.
Chanel is privately owned by Alain Wertheimer and Gérard Wertheimer, the grandsons of Pierre Wertheimer, who was an early business partner of Coco Chanel. After Lagerfeld's death, Virginie Viard, fashion studio director and Lagerfeld's right-hand woman at Chanel, was announced as taking over the creative leadership. No doubt she'll be in charge to offer a respectful gap to Lagerfeld's legacy, but, ultimately, this is one of the plummiest jobs in fashion and many designers would kill to fill those shoes and offer their own take on Chanel's future. Like many brands, it may take a few goes to find the perfect fit and I'm not sure anybody would stick around, or be allowed to stick around, for over three decades today.
"I think to get the best out of Chanel, it now needs to push the brand boundaries - not in a Balmain or Balenciaga 'sell out' begging-for-attention from the Instagram generation manner, but it needs to become more relevant. I feel Chanel has sunk into a comfort zone that rich women seeking affirmation or middle class basic bitch types aspire to." says Katie Chutzpah, Fashion Blogger.
Lagerfeld is, of course, respected for his prolific and long career, but, what left is distinctively "Lagerfeld"? You have to separate the man and his designs. When his domineering character is quietened by his death, it will be his designs and collections which will have to fight with what went before, and what will, now, come after.
"If Karl Lagerfeld had just concentrated on Chanel, then I think he would've been forgotten, but his influence was so pervasive across popular culture. Despite his work at Chanel, he was actually a modernist and early-adopter of technologies. From fashion to art, photography, product design, and even music, he was always there at the edge, and I think that will be his true legacy, not reinventing a tweed jacket every three months." says Lee Clatworthy, Fashion Writer.
This isn't about trashing Lagerfeld's career, it's an unemotional look at the things we can directly attribute to him. Clearly, Chanel has been a huge success under his guidance, but it had very strong foundations on which to build. In a few decade's time, will Lagerfeld's chapter at Chanel be remembered as vividly and fondly?
ChicGeek Comment PrEPpy Style
Let's take a moment to step back and see how fashionable men are looking at this moment in time. You've probably noticed a proliferation of thick moustaches - well away from the month of Movember - alongside lean and toned bodies all clothed in fitted, retro sportswear. It's hard not to see his counterpart mirrored from the late 70s or early 80s. An era of disco, gay liberation and pre-AIDS.
Left - How men are looking today - lean, toned and a hair top lip - Gone is the bearded and tattooed hipster
This isn't just gay men either. Young straight men and homosexual men are almost indecipherable in how they look, today, bouncing the trends off one another and have the confidence to do as they please, rather than worry about being labelled either way.
I was recently in a gay pub in East London. In walked three young guys all proudly sporting cropped hair and thick moustaches. I thought it was interesting how they looked like the same young men from nearly 40 years ago. I wondered why all these things: the clothes, the body shape and facial hair styles, had all collided back to this one point in time. And, then I thought, maybe it's because we're entering a Post-AIDS era?

Thanks to medication, HIV can be prevented and people who do have it can no longer pass it on. Medication such as PrEP (Pre-exposure prophylaxis) can stop HIV from taking hold. It is highly effective for preventing HIV if used as prescribed and it recently became available on the NHS.
Consciously or unconsciously, it feels like we can finally celebrate this time because we're no longer scared of it. Previously, looking at the images from that era had a heavy melancholy knowing what was to come and how many men didn't make it out of that decade. But, it feels like that has lifted. It's a mental freedom that the fashion industry is clearly relishing and focusing on this hedonistic era and image of hyper-masculinity.
Popular Instagram accounts such as 'TheAidsMemorial' celebrates the lives of men who lost their lives and it's interesting how contemporary these images look. Publications such as 'Gayletter' play with retro homoerotic imagery and books such as 'Fire Island Pines' , is a collection of Polaroids from 1975-1983 of men holidaying in Fire Island in Long Island, New York, and they look like a contemporary men's swimwear shoot. Recent films like 'Tom of Finland' focuses on the illustrator who drew the fetish/leather side of gay men and can be seen throughout the recent AW18 collection from Moschino.

This is obviously centred on the gay community, but gay men influence straight men, so quickly now, and vice versa.
"In the inimitable words of power PR Samantha Jones of TV show 'Sex and the City' (fictional, of course) "First comes the Gays, then the girls and then the industry"!says David M Watts, Editor & Publisher, Wattswhat Magazine.
"Gay men have historically been regarded as trend setters when it comes to fashion and style. However, the resurgence of male erotica imagery making its way into mainstream fashion has more to do with lazy millennial designers looking back and copying 80s and 90s imagery rather than using it as inspiration to create something new," says Watts.

Contemporary films, documentaries and TV shows such as Ready Player One, Stranger Things, The Assassination of Gianni Versace and Antonio Lopez: Sex, Fashion & Disco - Read TheChicGeek review here, keep us continually coming back to the 70s and 80s.
"I think nostalgia is a feeling which anchors us in a constantly-changing world, and that period between the late-Seventies and mid-Eighties, pre-AIDS crisis, pre-Section 28, and the birth of the Gay Liberation movement, is sometimes seen by gay men as a golden age of hedonism and queer sexual politics. Hence the continued popularity of the music and style from that period," says Lee Clatworthy, Writer and Press and Media Officer for Sparkle - The National Transgender Charity.
"I think this style has filtered down to the mainstream because of the availability of cheap flights to cities like Berlin, which has a large queer art community, but is also a focal point for innovative electronic music and club culture at present." says Clatworthy.
Gone is that built, steroid-fed and hairless muscular body of the 90s and in its place is a more natural yet Instagramable toned shape. It's more youthful and suits the current fitted style of men's clothes.
Trying not to fixate on the moustache too much, but it's definitely one of the defining factors linking the two eras, one thing to know is, it's not the twiddly gin-drinking Victorian type, but the solid Magnum PI style. The many years of Movember would have played a part in its return, but it's most probably a reaction to the hipster beard.
Left - GQ Style SS18
"I would say guys wearing the moustache are normally stylish and looking to stand out a bit more in a world of beards. It normally means they are confident in themselves too." says Tom Chapman, Founder of the Lions Barber Collective.
"I think the obsession with facial hair as a whole has been with us for a few years now, but people are starting to feel confident with a furry face and beginning to experiment with different shapes. There are so many choices when it comes to the moustache which can be easily changeable and stylable." says Chapman.
Right - Selfie from Pinterest
"The thicker, denser looks with less styling have definitely come from those 70/80 icons such as Freddy Mercury and Hulk Hogan and I would say that young men are most definitely influenced by iconic TV and films. They have a powerful way of making something feel cool or stylish." Chapman says.
While this 'PrEPpy' look has already been strong, particularly amongst East London gay men, it is definitely being pushed out into the wider male aesthetic. As we move further away from the bearded hipster, this seems to be its cool replacement. It is starting to influence straight males who won't even know where it's come from.
Or, it could simply be just a lot of young men with moustaches. It's only a theory!

INTA 2014: New gTLD update from IP constituency
Rise of the TLDs: an interview with Kurt Pritz
Ascending clock to separate gTLD applicants
ICANN reveals Trademark Clearinghouse launch date
The head of ICANN's IP constituency has told attendees at INTA's annual meeting to "pay attention" to pending changes to the oversight of ICANN.
Kristina Rosette, of counsel at Covington & Burling LLP, was providing an update on the new generic top-level domains (gTLDs) in one of the opening sessions today, May 12, at the meeting in Hong Kong.
Before advising on brand protection strategies, Rosette discussed the importance of the US government's decision to walk away from the contract with ICANN that allows it to oversee the organisation.
The government has said ICANN should find a suitable replacement by consulting the 'multistakeholder community' but that it will not accept any governments or intergovernmental organisations taking over.
Despite this, Rosette explained, some parts of the press have characterised the government's decision as "giving up some of the internet".
She encouraged trademark owners to participate in the discussions about replacing the US government, and that "if you or your clients depend on the DNS [domain name system], this matters to you".
"If you're not paying attention, I suggest you do," she added.
Moving on to protecting trademarks in the new gTLDs, Rosette said it is incumbent on lawyers to choose the appropriate strategy, although a particularly useful and cost-effective one is to "work backwards".
This requires assessing the applied-for addresses, deciding which are the most relevant from both a defensive and offensive viewpoint, and then identifying what the rights protection requirements are at the registry.
She added that, to date, 49 cases have been filed under the Uniform Rapid Suspension System (URS), a new system designed to tackle cybersquatting more quickly than the existing Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy.
Of those cases, the US-based National Arbitration Forum has handled 46, and brand owners have prevailed in about 78 percent of them, which "is not as many as I thought at this time", said Rosette.
One of the main lessons to learn about the URS is that complainants must demonstrate clear and convincing evidence of cybersquatting, she added.
The INTA conference runs from May 11 to 14.

The wedding cake on display at Masterpiece Cakeshop.
On Tuesday, Dec. 5, a visibly divided U.S. Supreme Court tackled the contentious issue of religious freedom when it heard oral arguments in "Masterpiece Cakeshop, Ltd. v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission." The arguments appeared to evenly split the four conservative justices from the four liberals. Justice Anthony Kennedy, who is often a swing vote, seemed to side with the baker.
This divisive case highlights the vast difference between the reality and the rhetoric of religious freedom, which is often considered to be the ideal that promotes harmony and equality. But, history suggests that it does lead to more conflict.
Text of the First Amendment.
That changed in 1990. The court ruled against two men who lost their jobs after using peyote, the cactus, which has hallucinogenic properties and has long been used in Native American religious practices. Because they were fired for drug use, the men were denied unemployment benefits. They claimed that as members of a Native American church, they used the drug for religious purposes.
Given our polarized society and the division among the Supreme Court justices today, this pattern will continue, whatever the verdict is.
This is an updated version of an article first published on Nov. 28, 2017.
Race-neutral affirmative action can help identify first-generation students like Blanca Diaz and LaQuintah Garrett.
In 2003, Justice Antonin Scalia predicted that the Supreme Court's sanctioning of race-conscious affirmative action in higher education would spark future litigation for years to come. And right he was. From defeated claims of discrimination against the University of Texas at Austin to an ongoing lawsuit against Harvard, colleges continue to come under attack for considering race as a factor in admissions decisions.
The recent report of the Department of Justice's possible investigation of "intentional race-based discrimination in college and university admissions" demonstrates that the assaults aren't likely to end anytime soon.
As a professor of law and scholar dedicated to ensuring equal educational opportunities for students of color, I believe now is an important time to earnestly consider other methods for diversifying student bodies. Race-neutral alternatives could effectively consider such factors as socioeconomic status and educational background, while supplementing more traditional affirmative action.
Lawyer Bert Rein and his client, Abigail Fisher, failed in their discrimination case against UT Austin's affirmative action policies.
When thinking about affirmative action, it's important to first define (and debunk) a few key terms, starting with "race-based" and "race-conscious" affirmative action.
"Race-based affirmative action" is a misnomer often used to describe some college admissions policies. "Race-based" implies that an admissions decision is made solely because of or based upon an applicant's race or ethnicity, which could not be farther from the truth. A university's decision to admit, deny or waitlist an applicant is based upon myriad criteria, ranging from standardized test scores to state of residency. Race is just one of many admissions factors a university may consider.
Schools that employ race-conscious admissions policies do so in order to achieve the educational, social and democratic benefits of a diverse student body.
As the Supreme Court held in Gratz v. Bollinger, race is not and cannot be the determining factor under a constitutional race-conscious plan. Therefore, when people claim that an African-American or Hispanic student was admitted because of race, they're often not only inaccurate but also dismissive of the student's other numerous attributes that played a role in the university's decision.
Opponents of race-conscious affirmative action often assert that such policies are racist or disproportionately benefit privileged minority students from middle- and upper-class backgrounds.
For its part, the Supreme Court is also skeptical of using racial classifications in governmental decision-making. As a result, it has held that institutions of higher education must afford serious consideration to "workable race-neutral alternatives" before implementing a race-conscious policy.
Importantly, the court's use of the term "race-neutral" does not mean "race-blind." That is, universities are permitted to think about how alternative admissions criteria could help them achieve their diversity goals. Race-neutral criteria could include socioeconomic background, high school or undergraduate institution, or class rank. In other words, these are factors that may contribute to a school's racial diversity, but applicants themselves are not considered based on race.
In some cases, it's proven difficult for race-neutral admissions policies to achieve the same levels of racial diversity as those achieved through direct consideration of race. However, such measures have been useful in helping to diversify student bodies when used in conjunction with or in lieu of race-conscious affirmative action.
When coupled with the stark racial disparities that continue to plague some professions, the uncertain future of race-conscious affirmative action calls for a renewed focus on alternatives that look beyond race alone.
TV isn't the only place where the legal profession remains one of the whitest.
My co-researchers, Dr. Ronald Pitner and Professor Carla D. Pratt, and I recently took a look at one particular aspect of higher education diversity: law school admissions.
To help law schools improve their diversity, we examined the relationship between race and race-neutral identity factors in law school admissions. The project, which was funded in part by a grant from AccessLex Institute, surveyed over a thousand first-year law students at schools throughout the country and asked about various aspects of their identity, such as socioeconomic status and educational background.
Our findings indicated that African-American and Hispanic students were significantly more likely than both white and Asian/Pacific Islander students to have qualified for free or reduced lunch programs in elementary or secondary school, had a parent or guardian who received public assistance when the student was a dependent minor, and received a Pell Grant during their undergraduate studies – all of which are race-neutral factors that schools could consider in admissions decisions.
Race-neutral affirmative action can help identify first-generation students and students from low-income families.
Based on the sample of participants in our study, it's clear that privilege did not catapult all students of color to law school. Many of them had to overcome the structural inequalities of poverty, race and public education to embark on a legal career. Expanding opportunities for these and other minority students will benefit not only legal education and the legal profession, but also society more broadly.
Race-neutral admissions policies could help identify and create opportunities for these students.
To be clear, I do not advocate for the wholesale substitution of traditional race-conscious admissions measures with the factors we studied. Race-conscious policies continue to be the most effective means by which to create diverse student bodies.
However, we encourage law schools and other institutions of higher education to utilize these and other race-neutral admissions factors as a means of complying with the Supreme Court's affirmative action mandates and testing the viability of policies that take such factors into account.
Doing so will help ensure that traditionally underrepresented students of color will continue to have access to colleges and universities that serve as gateways to career, financial and life opportunities.
A rally in support of DACA outside of the White House.
A man changes a flag to half-staff near the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs.
On Nov. 5, just 35 days after the deadly Las Vegas shooting, a man walked into a church in a small Texas town and murdered 26 people with an assault rifle. The coverage dominated the news.
But the day before, even more people – 43 – were shot to death in cities and towns around the country. And nobody really seemed to notice.
Shootings kill more than 36,000 Americans each year. Every day, 90 deaths and 200 injuries are caused by gun violence. Unlike terrorist acts, the everyday gun violence that impacts our communities is accepted as a way of life.
Of all firearm homicides in the world, 82 percent occurs in the United States. An American is 25 times more likely to be fatally shot than a resident of other high-income nations.
As public health scholars who study firearm violence, we believe that our country is unique in its acceptance of gun violence. Although death by firearms in America is a public health crisis, it is a crisis that legislators accept as a societal norm. Some have suggested it is due to the fact that it is blacks and not whites who are the predominant victims, and our data support this striking disparity.
Within the United States, the odds of dying from firearm homicide are much higher for Americans who reside in cities. Twenty percent of all firearm homicides in the U.S. occur in the country's 25 largest cities, even though they contain just over one-tenth of the U.S. population. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that of the 12,979 firearm homicides in 2015, 81 percent occurred in urban areas.
There is even more to the story: CDC data also show that within our nation's cities, black Americans are, on average, eight times more likely to be killed by firearms than those who are white. The rate of death by gun homicide for black people exceeds those among whites in all 50 states, but there is tremendous variation in the magnitude of this disparity. In 2015, a black person living in Wisconsin was 26 times more likely to be fatally shot than a white person in that state. At the same time, a black person in Arizona was "only" 3.2 times more likely than a white person to be killed by a gun. The combination of being black and living in an urban area is even more deadly. In 2015, the black homicide rate for urban areas in Missouri was higher than the total death rate from any cause in New York state.
These differences across states occur primarily because the gap between levels of disadvantage among white and black Americans differs sharply by state. For example, Wisconsin – the state with the highest disparity between black and white firearm homicide rates – has the second-highest gap of any state between black and white incarceration rates, and the second-highest gap between black and white unemployment rates. Racial disparities in advantage translate into racial disparities in firearm violence victimization.
Americans are 128 times more likely to be killed in everyday gun violence than by any act of international terrorism. And a black person living in an urban area is almost 500 times more likely to be killed by everyday gun violence than by terrorism. From a public health perspective, efforts to combat firearm violence need to be every bit as strong as those to fight terrorism.
The first step in treating the epidemic of firearm violence is declaring that the everyday gun violence that is devastating the nation is unacceptable. Mass shootings and terrorist attacks should not be the only incidents of violence that awaken Americans to the threats to our freedom and spur politicians to action.

People experience bad moods all the time. Nothing seems to go right and although they try to snap out of it, sometimes it seems like it is inevitable that they will just have one of those bad days?
Well, there are ways to help cope with days like this and much of the process begins with changing the way a person thinks. How a person thinks mentally can be the key ingredients for the type of mood a person experiences. Often, a bad mood can be due to a number of different factors, but there are ways to put the self back on track and in a better mindset to promote feelings of well being.
There are many techniques that can help alleviate a bad mood. Many of these techniques have been around for centuries and there are good reasons for this. These techniques embody a holistic approach that will leave a person feeling calm, happy and centered.
Sometimes when a person is in an unpleasant environment, this can set off a number of things including, how one feels inside. Learning to be in a peaceful environment, for just 30 minutes to an hour a day can help boost the mood and put them in a better peace of mind.
Go into a special room if need be, and take time out for yourself to help collect thoughts, clear the mind of any negativity and produce a calm within the body. By practicing this simple technique everyday will have do wonders for the mood and promote relaxation within the body.
Being in a room that is messy and unorganized can influence a bad mood or worsen a bad mood. By taking the time to organize and clean a room can do wonders for the overall sense of well being within a person. This also helps to alleviate any distractions that may occur because of this disorganized space. People not only generally feel better in a clean, highly functional room, but they also perform better.
According to Dr. Maoshing Ni, his research indicated that the scent of smell can have quite an impact on our physical and mental aspects of well being. Using the sense of smell stimulates the limbic system in the brain. This part of the brain associates moods and memory, which is why aromatherapy is such a popular holistic method to help uplift a poor mood.
It is important to surround the self with a very pleasant scent. Most of the scents that have shown to increase the levels of endorphins within the body are scents like lavender and vanilla. So invest in some nice scented hand lotion and feel the bad mood melt away.
If lotion is not for you, try some scented candles in these scents. They can do wonders for the environment and put a person at ease.
Unhealthy eating plans can also contribute to a person's mood and well being. The more processed foods and high sugar foods a person eats can affect their mood.
Food from nature, tends to be the best source of many of the essential vitamins and minerals the body needs. Fruits and vegetables are packed with B1 and thiamine which have been known for promoting mental well being and helping manage a person's mood.
Try eating some peas and watermelon to help increase the amount of thiamin and B1 vitamins within the body. This well help level the chemicals in the brain and promote a good mood.
Listening to some favorite music can actually alleviate a bad mood. This is because people tend to turn their attention onto the sound of the music as oppose to how they are feeling.
Dr. Luciano Bernardi of the University of Pavia, who has studied the effects of music on mood states that it is a combination of fast and slow rhythms in combination with pauses that may induce a state of relaxation. He explains that this technique helps to reduce sympathetic activity and is potentially useful in managing cardiovascular disease (Bell, 2006).
This method helps to ease the mind and is good for soul and the spirit. Bell also states that easy listening music can be used to induce a good mood (Bell, 2006).
Have you ever noticed that flowers always seem to have a positive effect on the mood? Well, there is a reason for this and it has to do with their aesthetic appeal and aromatic benefits.
There are reasons why flowers are considered to be the perfect gift for people who are feeling sick. Flowers are colorful and they can alleviate a person's mood and even help relieve stress. One study conducted by Dr. Maoshing Ni concluded that during a typing assignment those who were in close proximity of a flowering bouquet were more calm and relaxed then other people who sat next to plants.
Studies have shown that eating chocolate helps to increase the serotonin level in the brain. Serotonin is one of the neurochemicals that promotes well being and effects mood.
Dr. David Katz gives an explanation of why people love chocolate so much. He states that eating chocolate stimulates the centers in the brain which bring pleasure. It is a compound referred to as xanthine, which contains caffeine, helps to induce that reaction (Chatale, 2009).
So take a bite of a nice chocolate and feel the bad mood lift instantly.
Dr. Sarah Schenker states that eating chili peppers helps to induce a good mood because it activates the endorphins in the brain. Endorphins are known for their pain relieving properties as well as their ability to induce feelings of euphoria. Chili peppers contain substances called capsaicinoids which are activated when the chili pepper is eaten. This action causes the mouth to think it is being burned so it sends an influx of endorphins to ease the pain. This increase in endorphins helps to boost the mood and has been known to last for up to an hour.
When a person laughs there is an influx of endorphins that are released within the body. Try laugh therapy, which is incorporates laughing into the daily routine. This helps to elevate mood and even combats symptoms of depression.
Trying to do anything with low blood sugar is no fun. When blood sugar is low people have stated to feel anxious, irritable and fatigue begins to set in. All of these factors can contribute to a bad mood and a person's overall well being. So make sure to eat something to keep the negative effects of low blood sugar from setting in.
According to Dr. Sarah Schenker sometimes people can experience tiredness and a depressed mood when their blood sugar levels are low.
The key from preventing a bad mood is to prevent bad thoughts from occurring in the first place. Although people may not have control over the situations that occur, they do have control over how they think and react to them. Therefore, by being able to eliminate negative thinking patterns is a sure fire way to alleviate the negativity of a bad mood.
By learning how to effectively cope with the onset of a bad mood people can begin to use their own individual strengths paired along side many environmental tools to promote a better mood. The trick is to take action when a bad mood begins to take form. By using many of these techniques in this article, one can have a better piece of mind and feel better about themselves. These techniques can contribute to a better mood and affect a person's mental and physical health, as well as the way a person feels inside.

New Tesla buyers will have to pay to use Superchargers
The fees will apply to Teslas bought after January 1st, 2017 — including Model 3 preorders
By Sean O'Kane@sokane1 Nov 7, 2016, 9:57am EST
Share All sharing options for: New Tesla buyers will have to pay to use Superchargers
Tesla is making a big change to its network of free fast-charging stations. Any customer who orders a Tesla Model X or Model S after January 1st, 2017, will have to pay "a small fee" when filling up at a Supercharger station. Customers will also have to take delivery of those cars by April 1st, 2017 — so the fees will apply to people who preordered the Model 3. Tesla says the fee will be "less than the price of filling up a comparable gas car."
Current Tesla owners with Supercharger-equipped cars will be able to use the stations for free for the life of those vehicles, and a Tesla spokesperson tells The Verge that the free charging will transfer to successive owners. Customers who buy Teslas after that January 1st cutoff will be afforded 400 kWh of free Supercharging credits each year, good for about 1,000 miles, according to Tesla. The company says it will release more details about the change later this year, but added that "prices may fluctuate over time and vary regionally based on the cost of electricity."
"Less than the price of filling up a comparable gas car."
A change like this was likely to happen eventually, especially as Tesla tries to ramp up production to 500,000 units per year in order to meet the anticipated demand for the Model 3. "Our Supercharger Network will never be a profit center," the company wrote in a blog post about the change. Tesla says that, by losing less money on providing free electricity at these stations, that the fees will subsidize the continued expansion of the Supercharger network. The Superchargers allow for a full charge in about 75 minutes or a half charge in about 30 — much faster than the standard Level 1 or Level 2 chargers found around the US — and Tesla has built 734 Supercharger stations (with nearly 5,000 chargers) since the network was started in 2012.
Tesla has said in the past that Superchargers were meant to be used more during longer trips, instead of as a daily charging solution. In today's post, the company continued that line of thinking, saying that it believes the best way for customers to regularly charge their cars is during off-hours at home or work, "just as you would charge your cell phone."

March 25, 2014 – (Sarasota and Bradenton, Florida) – Shaun P. Merriman, President and CEO of Gateway Bank of Southwest Florida, announced today that the bank was recently awarded the prestigious 2013 President's Volunteer Service Gold Award for its contributions in the community. In addition, nine Gateway Bank employees received individual service recognition, including all three of Gateway's Banking Center Managers.
Established in 2003, the President's Volunteer Service Award was created by the President's Council on Service and Civic Participation to encourage more people to serve their communities. The Award is available on an annual basis to individuals, groups and families who have met or exceeded requirements for volunteer service. Award eligibility is based on hour requirements varying by age. A record of annual volunteer service hours is submitted, and the number of hours logged determines the award level (gold, silver or bronze). Award recipients receive: 1) an official President's Volunteer Service Award lapel pin; 2) a personalized certificate of achievement; and 3) a congratulatory letter from President Barack Obama.
"All 41 of our employees are encouraged to volunteer their time and talent to support local nonprofit and educational organizations," says Merriman. " I am proud to highlight the positive impact we are making in the communities we serve." Gateway Bank employees collectively contributed 2,008 hours of volunteer service in 2013, thus earning a "Gold" group award.
Susie Kruse, Gateway Vice President and Banking Center Manager, logged 147 hours and earned the bronze award. An avid volunteer, Kruse serves as board member / treasurer for Anna Maria Island Kiwanis. Kruse explains, "The volunteer work that I enjoy most is time given to benefit children." She has recently become involved with the activity and fundraising committee for Women's Council of Realtors – Manatee Chapter, as well as the program committee for Lakewood Ranch Business Alliance.
Patti Prince, Gateway Officer and Assistant Banking Center Manager, was awarded bronze recognition with 125 service hours. Prince is Troop Leader of Girl Scout Troop #37 in Bradenton. She has served in this roll the past 13 years. "It has been an amazing experience watching these girls grow up and mature into responsible young ladies," said Prince. "I have led this troop since the girls were in kindergarten, and now they are graduating high school!" Prince is planning to chaperone the Troop on a trip to Europe this summer.
"I enjoy the opportunity to help other organizations in need," said Cherie Mooney, Gateway Senior Vice President and Human Resources Director, who logged 102 hours for the bronze award. Mooney serves as board member and Treasurer of the local chapter of SHRA (Society for Human Resources). Mooney is also the employer coordinator for Gateway's involvement in the United Way Suncoast.

Denison is a long-time volunteer for Just for Girls, Inc. Foundation, and currently serves on their board as Secretary. She is also a board member for the United Way of Manatee County.
"We are extremely lucky to live and work in a community with such a philanthropic focus," said Dennis Murphy, Gateway Senior Vice President and Senior Loan Officer, who logged 120 hours and earned the bronze award.

In addition, he is trustee board member of the Kennedy Center's Any Given Child – Sarasota County schools, and board member of the Van Wezel Foundation. Merriman was recently named winner of the prestigious 2013 Chair's Cup Award from the Greater Sarasota Chamber of Commerce. The award is in recognition of one outstanding Chamber member who has gone "above and beyond" the call of duty in their contributions of service to the community. "While community involvement helps to create and foster business relationships, I personally choose to become involved in causes that are near and dear to my heart, and where my business knowledge can be most impactful," says Merriman. He added, "I am proud that Gateway Bank is aligned with this prestigious award. Each volunteer hour contributed makes a difference in improving the quality of life for others, and I encourage everyone to contribute to our community by volunteering." Gateway Bank as an organization has received the Gold award for the past five years.

A former member of the Codiac RCMP has died while on duty this week in Quebec.
Flags outside the Codiac RCMP detachment are at half-mast today, as members mourn the passing of Const. Richer Dubuc, who called Moncton home for seven years.
Friends and colleagues say his death will leave a void as large as the man himself. « He's someone who's not afraid to speak his mind, who's not afraid of anything but as well, someone who is very gentle at the same time and diplomatic, » says Louis-Phillipe Theriault of the Mounted Police Professionals Association of Canada. Early Tuesday morning, Const. Dubuc's police cruiser was involved in an accident with a farm tractor in Quebec. The 42-year-old father of four died from his injuries.
« He was a great guy. He was a cop's cop, there's no other person I would want doing this job, » says Jordan Nowlan, a friend of Dubuc's.
Codiac RCMP superintendent Paul Beauchense released this statement from the force. « He will be remembered as always having a smile on his face, but also the type of person who always stood up for others and was there to lend a hand either at work, or in his personal life," the statement read.
Const. Dubuc started his policing career with the Codiac Regional RCMP in 2009. This January, Const. Dubuc transferred to the RCMP Integrated Border Enforcement Team in Quebec. It was a return home for Dubuc, as he was originally from Joliette, and his wife is from the area as well. Policing runs in Dubuc's family. His brother Deitan Dubuc played football in the NFL, and later became a member of the Minnesota State Police, who produced a memorial video for the fallen Mountie. « He really cared about what he does, and it's a tremendous loss that Richer is not with us anymore, » says Jordan Nowlan. Const. Dubuc's death comes almost three years after three Codiac RCMP officers were killed by a gunman in the line of duty. « My thoughts were back to the past three that we lost. Another angel home, that's about it, » says Viola Biggar. « Codiac is full of very, very good members that work together and it's particular in the RCMP cases that a good portion of us are not from Moncton, or not from the area, so we have to rely on each other to find strength, » says Louis-Phillipe Theriault.
Condolence books are available at the Codiac RCMP detachment and at headquarters in Fredericton.
A moment of silence was held Tuesday in the House of Commons to mark Const. Dubuc's death. Flags on all RCMP buildings across the country will be flown at half-mast until sunset on the day of Dubuc's funeral.


Since I began playtesting it, right before creating this blog, I've finished 4 campaigns. The first was a playtest of levels 6-12. The second started as a playtest of Out of the Abyss and evolved. The third was Princes of the Apocalypse. And the fourth we finished up a few weeks ago and was a playtest of a campaign that releases in September.
I'm currently running my 5th, Oakhurst.


Dr Harjit Singh Bhatti, president of the association, said, "The minister assaulted doctors over alleged delay in treatment (to his mother). The assault has been captured on CCTV."
The Indian Medical Association (IMA), representing over 3 lakh doctors in the country, has written an open letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi requesting him to review the decision to induct Anantkumar Hegde as a Union minister, saying the medical fraternity was "disturbed" by the decision.
The doctors' body has also sought an investigation into allegations of Hegde assaulting doctors at a private hospital in Sirsi.
"Making him the minister of skill development and entrepreneurship has sent another wrong message to society. Is indulging in violence and not apologising the 'new skill' to be taught to the entrepreneurs… The medical fraternity is disturbed by his induction in Parliament and request you to take appropriate revision in your decision and also to get the incident investigated," the letter said.
"We have written an open letter to the PM that a person who does not have control over his anger, lost his temper and never apologised to the doctors, has been made minister of skill development. This sends a wrong message to society. No action has been taken against him and instead he has been rewarded. This is our primary concern. We have asked the PM to review the decision," IMA president Dr K K Aggarwal told The Indian Express.
The Resident Doctor's Association (RDA) of AIIMS has also written a letter to the PM requesting him to "review the decision in the best interest of public and doctors".

Obsolete technology LEGO kits
Rusty Blazenhoff 2:22 am Tue Aug 1, 2017
Chris McVeigh of Halifax, Nova Scotia builds all kinds of cool things with LEGO. Recently, he's been creating kits that showcase obsolete office technology. This particular kit, which he calls "My Old Desktop: DOS Edition 2.0," features a few reminders of the 1980s office, including a rotary-dial desk phone and a beige desk computer that can be partially fed one of the miniature 5.25" floppy disk replicas.
If this is your kind of thing, be sure to take a look at all of his retro LEGO kits. He's even got a little tiny "Atari" console.

Player Profile - Steve Payne (20th Jul 2007 - 1st Jul 2008)
Steve joins from Northwich Victoria, a club he joined in July 2005 after leaving Macclesfield Town due to a stress fracture curtailing his league career. He started at Huddersfield, but at the end of his time in the reserves there, he joined Macclesfield on loan in 1994, before making the move permanent and helping Macclesfield to successive promotions into the Football league. In 1999 after nearly a century of appearances for the Silkmen, he joined Chesterfield and went on to become something of a Spirite legend, making over 175 appearances and scoring ten goals. After his five year tenure ended, he returned to Macclesfield in 2004 and completed his century of appearances before joining Vics. After a season at Celtic that saw him take us to the play-off final with consistently solid performances, he needed to be closer to his family, and joined Halifax.

CONII Health Sciences Node Symposium a Success
The CONII Health Sciences Node Symposium was held today at Seneca College, attended by some two dozen representatives from the 10 member colleges of CONII. The purpose of the event was to establish the CONII Health Sciences Node community of practice and to begin the work of organizing and orchestrating collaboration among the 10 CONII members. The day was a very successful group think on the nature of innovation in this sector.
Brian Barber, Director of Technology Development and Commercialization at the UHN, gave a keynote address to initiate proceedings. Brian advocated building bridges between the academic and economic communities in order to proactively foster the necessary return on investment in research. He recognized the cultural divide that exists between the research and commercialization communities, and that those of us engaged in the innovation sector are involved in a culture shift writ large.
Colleges fit into the research continuum by offering services and environments suitable for testing prototypes and concepts. We can also offer unique capabilities in helping to change the way health care is practiced. There is a role here for "disruptive innovation" Brian reminded us - to play an active role in bringing about change. It's clear that our current health care system is presently unsustainable as is (it consumed 46% of the last Ontario budget, and it's growing each year). The role of researchers (applied or otherwise) is to take a proactive - rather than a reactive - role in making meaningful change a reality for health and human services. With the changing health care environment (think ubiquitous technology designed to monitor/aid health) we have a significant opportunity to participate in shaping the future of health care. It won't be easy - the group today spent some time reviewing challenges. But the opportunity is there. It's up to us to collaborate - to work together and make this happen.
Collaboration is difficult and messy, particularly so when stakeholders are all pursuing the same funding opportunities. CONII provides precedence here that we can build on. There is a delicate balance needed between protecting our own interests versus building capacity system-wide (a topic I wrote about some time ago). These are early days in the innovation marketplace, and we all have a place and role to play in ensuring Canada can achieve its prosperity goals.
Some time ago I wrote about ROI2: Return on Investment; Return on Innovation. This can be amended as ROI3: we need a return on investment and innovation, but also interest. If the return on innovation is the gravitational pull of ideas, then the return on interest is the ability to spark interest, to provoke thought, and to stimulate ideas. Contingent knowledge assumes we evolve these ideas. Let's make an environment conducive to this evolution.

That`s a good idea.

From engineered yarns for custom applications, abrasion-resistant and fireproof fabrics; Hygro towels made from hollow-core yarns to the world's most unique denims, bleach-safe sheets and super-grip, super stain-resistant rugs, Indian manufacturers are at the forefront of, India is at the fore-front of innovations and value additions. Whether high fashion or high technology, India has given the world several firsts-from the elegant saree to Intelligent Biomedical Clothes for the healthcare industry, anti-static / anti-electric jackets and Energy Finish Fabrics, India continues to set new benchmarks that benefit and delight the world.
India's strength in knitting has grown consistently earning the country global recognition in this sector. Several vertically integrated knitting companies in India are engaged in end-to-end production from yarn to finished knitwear and offer competitive world-class solutions in circular knitting, warp knitting, flat knitting and jacquard.
Over 5,000 knitting units, concentrated in and around Coimbatore, particularly in Tirupur in Southern India and Ludhiana in the North, produce a wide range of knitwear collections. Value added knitwear with embellishments like embroidery and sequin work is another unique Indian strength.
From basic single jersey to double jersey, piequeknit, autostripes, jacquards and more, the range of Indian knitted fabrics is unlimited. Consistency in process control, new generation technology, effective environmental and social compliances and efficient quality management have led to India acquiring an international reputation for high-end knitted products.

EV Charging for London 2012 Olympic Games
ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGERS FOR LONDON 2012
CPS will supply 120 of GE Energy's DuraStation electric vehicle chargers for the fleet of 200 BMW and MINI electric vehicles that will be used to transport athletes and officials between venues during London 2012 as well as providing and operating the Central Management System Software that will monitor and control the network of live charge posts.
After the Games, the chargers will become part of London public electric vehicle charging infrastructure, delivering a lasting legacy and the growth of supporting electric car use in the British capital.
CPS has already installed the UK's largest commercially funded charge point network on behalf of Ecotricity, the UK's biggest provider of green energy. The network spans the UK motorway network and provides both 3 pin 13amp and 7 pin 32amp charging facilities to electric vehicle drivers.
Alex Bamberg, Sales Director of CPS says "The contract with LOCOG is a fantastic endorsement of our capabilities to enhance GE's DuraStation design to meet the LOCOG requirements and also provide on-going back office support for the charge points. Our relationship with GE has gone from strength to strength and we look forward to delivering many more projects in the near future where we have already put forward a joint offer"
GE's DuraStation supports faster charging by integrating higher voltages and currents that require specialized equipment and connectors.
In addition to a growing range of electric vehicle charging stations, GE Energy provides the full range of electrical systems and smart grid technology necessary to develop and manage a complete electric vehicle infrastructure. Todd Johnstone, Chief Executive Officer of GE Energy's Industrial Solutions says, "We are delighted to be supplying the Olympic and Paralympic Games with our EV chargers, showcasing them to the world".
"Major manufacturers are now launching electric cars into the mainstream market; however the power grid will require significant investment to make their widespread use possible. It will be up to companies such as GE Energy, to provide the technology and expertise to make this possible."
It is estimated that every electric vehicle that comes on to the roads will require 1.5 chargers; in Europe alone, electric vehicle sales are expected to reach 0.5m per year by 2015.
As part of GE's on-going product development for this important market GE is also releasing the WattStation wall-mounted residential units early in 2012.
As a company, GE is a vocal supporter of electric vehicles. Last year the company stated that it wanted to lead wide-scale electric adoption and generate growth for its businesses. Such goals meant GE plans to purchase 25,000 electric vehicles by 2015 for use as company cars and to lease to corporate customers through its Capital Fleet Services business.
In September 2011 the company signed a memorandum of understanding with car maker PSA Peugeot Citroën to collaborate towards establishing reliable business models for electric vehicles. As a sign of its engagement in the EV sector, GE has shown interest in buying 1,000 electric vehicles from PSA Peugeot Citroën in Europe.

In a news story we never expected to write (but one that we're incredibly happy to be doing nonetheless), the internet-famous 70-year-old Pokémon GO player Chen San Yuan was recently presented on stage as a brand ambassador for Taiwanese electronics giant ASUS.
If that sentence has just flown over your head faster than a soaring Pidgeot, let us explain. Chen San Yuan first rose to fame last summer, when photos of him and his bike, which could hold eleven smartphones at one time, were shared around the internet. He was using this strange contraption to play Pokémon GO across multiple accounts all at the same time. And people loved it.
Things got weirder still when he was later spotted wearing a new, full-body rig to carry all of the phones whilst walking about. His bike received modifications, too, and he soon added even more phones to his lineup.
The internet sure is a crazy, powerful thing.
Good for him i hope i have enough marbles left to play games when i'm 70.
@Welshland Also his wrists must be huge from all the swiping.
I hope I'm that active when I'm 70.
I doubt Niantic are too happy with this promotion, since a single person using multiple accounts to play this game is against their terms of service.
This is promoting a practice in defiance of their terms of service.
Holy moly that is a lot of phones, promote your item with someone who plays it too much.
Now THIS is marketing genious. Well, except for the whole breaking the terms of service thing.
boss, haha me and a collegue were talking about this dude like a day ago.
hey that's the company that made my Computer.
Now that's getting paid like a boss.
What a terrible brand ambassador. Unlike Asus hardware, his Pokebike hasn't crashed once!
Who's that on the right?
isn't it still against the TOS of pokemon GO to use multiple devices at once like that?
Most I've done is run 2 at once. Helps with raiding sometimes. I made the alt account to cheese the PvP events because PvP in PoGo is the worst feature they have added. Gym revamp? Good. Raids? Good. Friends and gifts? Great! Trading? Could have been better with online trading, but good. PvP? TRASH.
@Welshland 10-1 says he just has one pocket wi-fi source and all of those are linked to it.
Good for him. I know my 60 year old mom can't complete with him, she's too picky when it comes to the Pokemon she catch, also can only handle one phone, should of lead with that.
Someone should help him find a way to lock those phones in case a creep tries to take one.
@Welshland He's probably a WiMAX subscriber (that would make sense anyway, given his lifestyle). So, no, his bill might not be that big since you carry your WiMAX router with you and you can connect as many phones to it as you want with no extra cost. Plus with WiMAX there's no data volume limit since it's basically "home internet that you carry with you everywhere you go".

Farmers can look forward to new UMES building
Anissa Lopez,
PRINCESS ANNE, Md.- An idea that's been in the works for nearly 15 years is now becoming reality at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore.
The University is going to be building a brand new agriculture research facility on their campus that could have a great impact on the local agriculture industry.
"It's a very exciting new development that allows us to continue growing and expand, to be effective in supporting our community, our students, and the well being of the region where we are, Dr. Moses Kairo, Dean of the school of Agricultural and Natural Sciences, said.
Officials said this new research complex is necessary because their existing agriculture facilities are getting too old.
"Our facilities for agricultural research and education is getting aged at the same time we are getting newer challenges that require different types of laboratories to be able to address them effectively, Kairo said.
47ABC was told the new complex will provide research, teaching, and extension services not only to students, but to local farmers as well.
"The kind of research that's going to be going on this building is going to be directly relevant to and really should be driven by farmers and what farmers need to solve their problems," Kairo said.
There will be at least four new laboratories in the complex that will help solve problems that impact farming.
"A simple thing might be climate change for example, even issues of dealing with challenges ensuring that water remains safe," Kairo said.
Some farmers told us the research that UMES has done so far has been great, but they feel this new facility will greatly improve that research in the future.
"It could save a crop, if you saved a crop you saved a farmer," Eddie Johnson, retired farmer, said.
UMES said the building will cost about $14 million dollars to build, but they did receive a grant from the US Department of Agriculture to help.
The college said they still have some planning to do for the building, but they hope to move forward with everything by the end of the month.
