As I think you know from my writing on this subject and our conversations, I do not think it is the reviewer's role to "rate" the performance; nor do I think music performance can be rated via such a rudimentary metric as stars. We are not talking about hotel accommodation here where the criteria for star ratings are more easily comprehendable! I believe a music review should be a record of the event and as such serves to place the concert in context (for example, a composer anniversary or a premiere of a new work). I believe we still need to record the activities of performers/composers via intelligent, well-informed and well-written music criticism – in the blogosphere and in the mainstream media. Such writing prevents mediocrity and dumbing down, and, I hope, encourages variety, authenticity and objectivity. Unfortunately, I feel the star rating system discourages all of this by putting an undue focus on "rating" the event rather than describing it and bringing it to life for those who weren't there.
CEP: I agree re. star ratings for opera (or theatre/film, for that matter) – stars are more relevant if there's a run of performances.
Your response ties in with something else I am pondering – the apparent need to find "meaning" in everything, specifically in classical music as a way, perhaps, of validating it or making it relevant to people today. In an way, reviews are complicit in this by trying to express meaning (whether it is actually there or not in the music) to the reader. It seems we can't simply report on the concert, describing the sounds the performer/s made, the quality of the performance, our personal response to it. Everything must be freighted with meaning or "relevance". The music is not simply allowed to "be", or be "entertainment" (in the best sense of that word)… But I digress slightly.
When I was reviewing regularly, I would quite frequently receive comments from other people who had attended the same concerts and who might take issue with something I had said in a review. For example, I was accused of being "far too generous" to a very elderly pianist (now sadly no longer with us) because his Chopin performance was "riddled with errors and inconsistencies", and why hadn't I documented them? But I don't believe it is my job as a reviewer to highlight a performer's errors (unless they are really dreadful, in which case I simply wouldn't write a review); nor do I think reviewers/critics should seek to tell the musicians how to do their jobs.
My personal "crusade" – and I think this is a sentiment we share – is to encourage people to enjoy classical music and to debunk this silly notion that one needs to be well-informed, knowledgeable or educated to a certain level in order to "appreciate" it. Unfortunately, some of the more high falutin or pretentious writing on classical music isn't helping; but I also think people are becoming more suspicious of mainstream critics and reviewers and are turning instead to independent review sites/blogs where they can find longform/more considered writing which has a more personal/authentic voice to it.

All in all, I don't think Barack Obama has been a very good president. In a new updated version of my book Recarving Rushmore: Ranking the Presidents on Peace, Prosperity, and Liberty, being published this fall, I rank him 34th of 41 presidents rated. His further injection of the government into the health care and financial industries, his temporary government takeover of two of the three major American auto companies, his massive pork-filled fiscal stimulus bill, and his only marginal improvement over George W. Bush's abysmal record on civil liberties have all been quite disappointing and troubling. Yet despite all the recent criticism, Barack Obama's foreign policy may be the best since Republican and Democratic presidents in the mid- to late-1970s.
Although his foreign policy record is not perfect, Obama, more than most recent presidents, seems to have at least a vague inkling that the United States is overextended internationally and that the American public is exhausted with the lost lives and money in foreign military adventures and the massive national debt to which they have contributed. His first clue might have been the two military defeats that George W. Bush bequeathed to him upon leaving office. Obama wisely pulled out of the quagmire in Iraq (although the Iraqi government helped him avoid leaving a residual U.S. force to be caught up in the current chaos) and will eventually at least mostly withdraw from the tar pit in Afghanistan. (The "crazy-like-a-fox" Hamid Karzai is trying to help the U.S. exit here too, but his likely more pliant successor may allow a remaining U.S. force to be caught up in the likely future chaos.) Although it is true that Obama should have been more resolute in getting out of Afghanistan, rather than getting more U.S. troops killed in a fruitless surge, he eventually began to draw down those forces.
In Libya, to satisfy his ally France, Obama helped NATO use air power to get rid of the dictator Muammar Gaddafi. If this had to be done (it didn't), "leading from behind" and using only air power was the way to do it, despite the criticism from Republican hawks, such as John McCain and his sidekick Lindsay Graham, who never met a country on which they didn't want the United States to lead a pointless attack. In contrast to George W. Bush, Obama, with a few exceptions (for example, the successful Special Forces raid that killed Osama bin Laden), has at least kept his attempts to kill terrorists to minor air strikes overseas using automated drones.
On Syria and Iran, Obama has so far wisely been reluctant to get the U.S. militarily involved. The United States cannot stop every civil war in the world, and in Syria, Obama has wisely strictly limited the U.S. military aid that could fall inadvertently into the hands of radical Islamists—learning the lesson from Jimmy Carter's and Ronald Reagan's inadvertent creation of al-Qaeda through military assistance to the Islamist Afghan Mujahideen during the 1980s. Instead of attacking Syria, he negotiated, with help from Russia, a dismantling of Bashar al-Assad's chemical weapons program. More than any other foreign policy action by Obama, this episode is alleged to have demonstrated his weakness to McCain and the other interventionists. Actually, the criticism is more a sad reflection of the belligerent expectations among the American foreign policy elite of U.S. behavior abroad.
Instead of being led into yet another war, this one with Iran over its nuclear program, Obama negotiated an interim agreement with Iran to freeze—and in some instances roll back—that program. Apparently, at this writing, substantial progress is being made on a final agreement that would permanently restrict Iran's program. Such an arrangement would be a major success in peaceful nuclear non-proliferation.
And instead of trying to make presidential campaign hay against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton out of the fairly minor episode at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, Republican hawks should come up with a better solution than Obama's multilateral attempts to pressure nuclear-armed powers—Russia, China, and North Korea—to behave.
Other recent presidents could learn something from this rather Taoist attitude—the foreign policy that realizes that "stuff happens" in the world that the United States shouldn't do anything about. As noted, George W. Bush entangled the United States in two massive and failed nation-building quagmires in Afghanistan and Iraq. After the Soviet Union collapsed, removing the major constraint on U.S. military adventurism, Bill Clinton went hog wild and intervened in Bosnia, Kosovo, Somalia, Haiti, Sudan, Afghanistan, and Iraq. George H. W. Bush also took advantage of the USSR's demise to conduct a needless war against Soviet ally Saddam Hussein and also invaded Panama to oust a leader who posed little threat to the United States. Ronald Reagan conducted a botched invasion of Grenada, repeatedly provoked and attacked Muammar Gaddafi's Libya, meddled in and withdrew U.S. forces from Lebanon in disgrace, sold arms to terrorist-sponsoring Iran, and attempted to destabilize and overthrow, through covert means, many foreign governments he didn't like. Only when we go back to the post-Vietnam War presidencies of Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter can we find a more sober and restrained foreign policy than Obama's.


The USS Constitution is a wooden-hulled, three-masted heavy frigate of the United States Navy, named by President George Washington after the Constitution of the United States of America. She is the world's oldest commissioned naval vessel afloat. The Constitution was launched in 1797, one of six original frigates authorized for construction by the Naval Act of 1794 and the third constructed. Joshua Humphreys designed the frigates to be the young Navy's capital ships, and so Constitution and her sisters were larger and more heavily armed and built than standard frigates of the period. She was built in the North End of Boston, Massachusetts at Edmund Hartt's shipyard. Her first duties with the newly formed U.S. Navy were to provide protection for American merchant shipping during the Quasi-War with France and to defeat the Barbary pirates in the First Barbary War.
The Constitution's stated mission today is to promote understanding of the Navy's role in war and peace through educational outreach, historical demonstration, and active participation in public events as part of the Naval History & Heritage Command. As a fully commissioned U.S. Navy ship, her crew of 60 officers and sailors participate in ceremonies, educational programs, and special events while keeping her open to visitors year round and providing free tours. The officers and crew are all active-duty U.S. Navy personnel, and the assignment is considered to be special duty in the U.S. Navy. Traditionally, command of the vessel is assigned to a Navy commander. She is usually berthed at Pier 1 of the former Charlestown Navy Yard, at one end of Boston's Freedom Trail.

Q: RStudio Automatically Running Something Upon Starting it I'm having a very unusual problem with RStudio today. When I launch the application it automatically seems to run something.
The reason I say 'something' is because all of the panels are blank, yet my computer starts running an rsession node at 99 %CPU capacity, and the console, although blank, has the little red stop sigh on the top right side of the box, indicating it is running something...
Has anybody ever run though this issue? I've tried to force quit, restart the computer & interrupt the session but nothing in sight.
FYI: R version 3.6.1

Cole set to win 100th cap tonight – thoughts?
Chelsea defender Ashley Cole looks set to reach the milestone of 100 England caps as England take on Brazil at Wembley on Wednesday night, and the praise has been widespread from his peers, who appreciate the talents of a full-back who has won pretty much everything there is to win at club level.
Cole added a Champions League winner's medal to his impressive trophy cabinet last campaign, despite Chelsea starting the knockout stages as outsiders in the Champions League football bets with Titan Bet and his team-mates have been full of compliments for the 32-year-old.
England captain Steven Gerrard has been leading the praise, saying: "He's probably been the most consistent player I've played with during my time. It's going to be Ashley's night, if he's picked to play, and the players are certainly going to show him a hell of a lot of support. Let's hope the fans do as well.
"He deserves to be a 100-cap player, there's no doubt about it. I think there's been years over the last 12 when Ashley Cole has been the best left-back in the world."
Cole's reputation with the England fans however hasn't always been so complimentary. The popularity of ex-wife Cheryl Cole has been one reason for this, but also as the defender was reported to have shot a lad with an air rifle who was on work experience at Chelsea's training ground.
Despite off the field antics which have been highly publicised by the media, Cole has been an almost ever-present in the England defence since making his debut under Sven-Goran Eriksson in 2001 against Albania.
Former England left-back and current Under 21 manager Stuart Pearce was full of praise for Cole's performances on the pitch, saying: "In my mind, he's the best left-back that's ever played for England. That's a fact, in my eyes.
"To play 100 times for his country is an amazing achievement. It shows not just a consistency of ability, it shows a dedication to want to turn up week in, week out, month in, month out for your country."
Cole should receive a warm welcome from all England fans on Wednesday night; to play for your national side 100 times is a great achievement, and in doing so he will join an exclusive club. Only six players have played 100 times for England, with Gerrard also being one of them after he made his 100th appearance against Sweden in November.

Heartbreak hotel at the Liberty
There are few more disappointing things in life than conceding an injury time equaliser – well perhaps an injury time winner. As a Lewes fan I have been used to seeing both this season, but Abi Davies hasn't had the privilage…until the 93rd minute yesterday.
Heading into the game on the back of consecutive away defeats, Swansea City were hoping to return to winning ways when they welcomed Chelsea to The Liberty on Tuesday night. Condemned to just a solitary defeat at home so far this season, Swansea should have had optimum confidence going into the fixture against Villas-Boas side.
Having made 10 changes for the weekends FA Cup tie at Bolton, Brendan Rodgers restored the side that started Swansea's last league game at The Stadium of Light.
The visitors, without John Terry due to a knee injury, lined up with a centre back partnership of Luiz and Ivanovic. A highly perplexing decision given Chelsea's recent signing of Gary Cahill, who had to settle for a place on the bench despite Villas-Boas stating that the Londoners would be a far greater force to be reckoned with, due to the recruitment of the English defender.

Northern Jess is back…
She's back. Fresh from her still at the Edinburgh Festival Northern Jess has once again tried to understand the irrational world of football….
"Beards are bad. No ifs and buts, they make even the most genetically perfect man look like a hobo. Take any man as an example and try to prove me wrong. Golden Balls himself has recently been spotted sporting a hairy face. Surely one of footballs most attractive men can do no wrong but even on David Beckham it's not a nice extra. Somehow I don't think Victoria will be allowing the new growth to stay around for too long.
When I talk of beards, I mean at least 2 inches of growth. Stubble is a whole different ball game and entirely acceptable. Step up Michael Owen and his perfect example of facial accessorising. If you want to reminisce about some of the most famous beards of past and present The Daily Mail has collated their best and worst beards in the history of football.
This story is old, but it's amusing non-the less. Some of you may, or may not, have seen it surface in February of this year. A transsexual living in Warrington complained to her local paper about an NHS advert that told women to avoid excessive drinking, as it would lead to them looking like a man. But no-one was really that bothered about Lucy Smith's complaint, people were much more interested in her face and the likeness it had to footballer John Terry.
After realising that she could get herself some publicity (and probably a few pennies for a new pair of stilettos) Lucy decided to discuss her "Terry's Twin" status. Lucy, who openly admits she has no interest in football, told the News of the World that she loves "looking like a millionaire". Just a pity she doesn't look a million dollars. See for yourself here.
And whilst we are on the subject of Chelsea players, lets have a look at the most polar opposed couple in England – Ashley and Cheryl Cole. Google 'Ashley Cole hate' and you get some interesting YouTube videos along with headlines of him being voted Britain's most hated celebrity, that's not to mention all the groups voicing their dislike on Facebook. Speak to football fans across the country and you will hear a fairly similar response, he is one of the least popular players around – in fact he became the first player to be roundly booed by his own fans last year when England played Kazakhstan (see I do know a thing or two about the game!)
But through the cloud of hate that has hovered over him a Geordie Queen has emerged. Ashley's wife Cheryl, girl band extraordinaire and glamorous X Factor judge, has risen from a background that involves council estates and drug addicts to become a huge success. Last week her first solo single, Fight for This Love, debuted at No 1 in the charts. It is the fastest selling single of 2009 so far. 26 year old Cheryl has gone from strength to strength as the boos for her husband continue to come. She has grown from a gobby lass, who shot to fame on Pop Stars: The Rivals, into a classy and groomed member of one of Britain's most successful girl bands. Cheryl seems endearing, a likeable honest and open Geordie. Stories of her alcoholic brother along with other less than perfect family members are often found in the tabloids but she hasn't been held back by her complicated home life.
The 2003 incident in which she was convicted of actual bodily harm on a toilet attendant and sentenced to 120 hours community service seems to be a distant memory. She isn't the best singer and occasionally wears questionable outfits but as the old cliché goes, women want to be her and men want to be with her. She has created a perfect package and is adored by millions. Cheryl is pretty and vulnerable, but not a push over. She is seen as a good role model for young children. The same could definitely not be said for Ashley.
Ashley's football career has been riddled with stories of bad behaviour. He turned his back on Arsenal, his boyhood club, after they dared to offer him only £55,000 a week, this apparent greed alienated many fans. His secret talks with arch-rival club Chelsea only heightened their anger especially as he proceeded to lie about it, resulting in a fine. After his move to Chelsea he added further fuel to the Ashley bonfire by writing a book in which he insulted the club and a lot of the players. Football fans have felt animosity towards Ashley since his transfer days but it was only when he was alleged to have cheated on his wife that others began to view him in a negative light. Girl's Aloud supporters are very loyal to Cheryl and Ashley's infidelity immediately lost him any few fans he may have had.
While some may be quick to label her as foolish for taking back her cheating husband others praise her for taking control of her husband and working hard to get the life she wants. Cheryl recently gave a much-publicised interview in which she admitted she trusts her dogs more than her husband. She told The Sunday Times: "I've come to the conclusion that I don't trust anybody in life except my mother and my dogs. I'm scared to let people know how much they mean to me, and it's scary that you can love a small hairy thing so much." Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in February 2009 for Comic Relief only added to Cheryl's respectable image. Especially as returning from the trip she was faced with discussing Ashley's arrest for being drunk and disorderly. The shy little girl from South Shields has also been voted in the Top 10 Sexiest Women in the world by FHM magazine, Britain's Best Dressed Woman by Tatler and Heat magazines "Most fanciable female" in the past 12 months…And Ashley has won, errr, a FA Cup winners medal.
Ashley told The News of The World he accepted his bad reception. He said: "I will be retired in five or six years and then the people who hate me can move on to someone else." And maybe even Cheryl is embarrassed about the reception her husband receives as rumour has it she won't be attending the 2010 World Cup in South Africa as she'll be much too busy with her solo career and work on The X Factor. Although some argue that Ashley is the best left-back that England have his talent is hugely over-shadowed by his behaviour. It's easy to dislike someone who gets bad press over his social life, and is a good footballer but he seems to never come up smelling of roses. Cheryl on the other hand not only smells of flowers but is fast becoming the quintessential English Rose, even with her barbed wire tattoo around her thigh!"

At the entrance to Pieter Roos Park, in Parktown, stands The messenger, a sculpture that speaks to the bustling transport routes that surround this green oasis. Situated on Empire Road, at Hillbrow's notorious feet and sandwiched between Wits University's Education Campus and the quiet peri-urban apartment blocks of Parktown, Pieter Roos Park is a breath of tranquility in a somewhat tumultuous environment.
Transport routes circumnavigate the park, highlighting it's importance, not only as a green lung, but also a space of psychological relief from city life. Minibus Taxi's, BRT busses and Gautrain shuttles transport hundreds of people through this space daily, from the chaotic Park-station hub, past the Constitutional Court, branching into the urban congestion of Hillbrow or out into the wide jacaranda avenues of Parktown.
The inhabitants of the high-rises that characterise this edge of Johannesburg's inner city, find respite from its imposing concrete in the Shade of Pieter Roos Park's trees and recreation in its basketball court, and grassy embankments. The fresh breeze that comes up from the small Braamfontein spruit running through the park, gives students, commuters, residents and workers an opportunity to cool off in the heat of summer.
Recognising the park's pivotal role in the health of the inner city, the Johannesburg Development agency, in collaboration with the Trinity Project, commissioned The Messenger, a sculpture that talks to the complexity of this very unique green space in Johannesburg's core.
The underlying structural design of The Messenger, is drawn from earlier experiments in which identical profiles are rotated around a central axis, creating a coherent volumetric form from disparate two-dimensional elements. In this instance, the 12 profiles describe the form of a man, a giant, his arms outstretched aloft and in each of his hands he holds a unique individual, each one, telling their own story.
Businessmen with briefcases, commuters hailing Taxi's, women carrying parcels on their heads, each of the characters that are carried in the hands of this pivotal being, reflect the everyday people of the inner city. There is a superstitious quality to The Messenger, his presence implying a guardianship, the activity of a being that is watching over the safety of the commuters and the larger community.


When my husband and I began making plans to visit Israel, about 2 months before the trip, one of the first things I did was look online for AA and NA meetings. No matter what other exciting aspects of the trip we were planning, I knew that getting to meetings would add another dimension.
Having been in recovery for many years, the principles and the connections in recovery are very important to my everyday life. By maintaining both, finding ways to remind myself of some of the basics, as well as stay connected, I not only don't consider drinking or drugging, but I maintain my spiritual fitness.
Remembering that even good stress is stress, I get to deal with a variety of stresses when traveling. Diverse and changing environments, hotel rooms, unfamiliar foods (I LOVE this part!), meal times I don't always get to choose and close quarters with family are a few of the differences; oh, and time changes; Israel is nine hours ahead of our time here in Colorado, an opportunity to adjust my internal clock!
When looking for meetings, I found that the cities of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem had many more than the smaller towns and rural areas, as in the U.S. In a country with a population approaching 8 million, nearly half of them in the Tel Aviv greater metro area, there were astoundingly few meetings. Cities of comparable size in the U.S. have meetings every hour of every day and in many sections of town. We are so blessed to have the degree of available recovery we have!
Interestingly, the meetings in Tel Aviv were held in a bomb shelter! (We decided that by going to one of the English-speaking meetings held during the few days we were in the city, we would clearly avoid getting bombed! Sorry, could not resist.) A.A. meetings in Russian and Hebrew as well as meetings in English were available nearly every day; only one weekly English-speaking N.A. meeting was available…good thing I am not picky and am willing to go to any meeting. Fortunately, I qualify for most of the 12 step meetings they make! Kind of like my using…put it in front of me and I am capable of abusing it; put it in front of me and I will attend it, definitely get something and hopefully give something!
There were about 15 people at the meeting we attended and they were very appreciative to have visitors from the U.S. Several members were American but had either immigrated to Israel or were temporarily working there; one was Canadian, one Swiss and others representing various nationalities including local Israelis. Since the "meeting after the meeting" is always important to me, we took advantage of the beautiful weather and stayed outside in the park where the bomb shelter is located to chat…before going for gelato.
Alcohol is an enormous problem among the Orthodox Jews as well as others in Israel.
Secrecy surrounds families where there is alcohol and drug abuse, often accompanied by domestic violence.
In Orthodox families, women are sometimes oppressed and rarely seek help.
Again, we are so blessed in the U.S. We have availability and access to recovery. Inpatient and outpatient programs are in every state and meetings are everywhere and free! Of course, there are still some with archaic thinking, some individuals who do not acknowledge the disease aspect of addiction, but we are making progress. This does not seem to be the case in other places in the world. I have been in Muslim countries where there are no meetings, in Jordan where there is one a week in the entire country, and now in Israel where there are very few. I encourage all of us to be thankful and to do anything we can to spread the word that there is recovery: As one of my favorite N.A. tee-shirts says, The Lie is Dead, We do Recover!

STORIES AND PORTRAITS OF U.S. MILITARY VETERANS, AND THEIR FAMILIES, WHO WERE STATIONED AT FORT MCCLELLAN. FORT MCCLELLAN WAS A U.S. ARMY INSTALLATION NEAR ANNISTON, ALABAMA - LABELED AMERICA'S MOST TOXIC TOWN. OPENED IN 1917, THE INSTALLATION SERVED AS A MAIN LOCATION OF NUCLEAR, BIOLOGICAL AND CHEMICAL WEAPONS TRAINING, TESTING AND STORAGE. THOUSANDS OF FORT MCCLELLAN VETERANS ARE CURRENTLY REPORTING A RANGE OF DEBILITATING TO LIFE THREATENING HEALTH ISSUES THAT THEY BELIEVE ARE CONNECTED TO HAZARDS THEY WERE EXPOSED TO WHILE STATIONED THERE. HERE'S THE REST OF THE STORY…

May 7 Wayne Henry Hayden - Sergeant, Heavy Truck Driver, U.S. Army
Memphis Barbree
January of 1973. The war in Vietnam was in its last couple years. Wayne had drawn such a high draft lottery number, he wasn't going to have to go - but his younger brother got called. The idea of this was very troubling to Wayne and he couldn't figure out how to get his brother out of serving. So, on the day the bus arrived to take his brother away, Wayne went down to meet the bus with him. While the guy in charge was busy checking his brother in, Wayne snuck onto the bus.
"I said: If you're takin' him, you're takin' me. … And then he got stationed at Fort Carson - three years and he was out. Shit. So if I had been able to look at the future and see that, Hell he's just going to be in Colorado Springs, I wouldn't have worried about that. I would never have gone into that damn thing."
Wayne did his Basic Training at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri. He was an exceptional soldier and it was war time, so they pulled him out of Basic after only 4 of the usual 8 weeks and moved him on to AIT (Advanced Individual Training) at Fort Ord in California. There he learned to be a Heavy Truck Driver - 64C. His good performance as a soldier continued and within a year of joining the Army he was promoted from E-1 Private to E-4 Specialist. In just another year he made Sergeant.
June 1973. Wayne was sent to Fort McClellan. He spent the next 14 months there working in the field around the base and transporting truck loads of WAC (Women's Army Corps) trainees to the firing range and other places around post. He also began experiencing health issues.
"I went to sick call there with rashes and breathing problems - tonsillitis, the whole gamut. Never once was I told what was going on. …[The water] smelled like it had fuel in it. It tasted different, it smelled different and I thought man this is - something's wrong with the water here."
August of 1974, Wayne was assigned to the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) along the border of North and South Korea. Here, he received specialized NBC (Nuclear, Biological & Chemical) training. After this training Wayne began to recognize some of his health issues in the lists of symptoms from toxic chemical exposures - rashes, sores, boils, and anal bleeding. A painful rash that sent him to sick call soon after arrival in Korea, was diagnosed by the post doctor as Shingles. Wayne had never had the Chicken Pox - a precursor to Shingles - and he didn't believe the doctor. The "rash" turned out to be a chemical burn.
Barrels of Agent Orange, other toxins and hazardous activities were a daily experience at both Fort McClellan and in South Korea for Wayne.
"The Agent Orange barrels - god damn - they were at the motor pool. They had the orange ring around them, but we were lied to. We were told 'That's not harmful. You can take a bath in it. It won't hurt ya'.' … Hey, we cut the barrels in half, used them in the latrines in Korea. And then we would pull the barrel out of the latrine, pour diesel fuel in it and burn it while we stood there staring at it. Was that toxic? There wasn't a day that I was in there, that there wasn't some kind of a toxic situation. And the government knew it … and still do."
Wayne continued his service in the Army until November of 1977, when he received an honorable discharge. He then went to college in Colorado Springs, Colorado, got married and started a family. His first son was born with part of his brain not fully formed and no esophagus. His second son was born with lung issues, an inoperable brain tumor and a tumor in his navel. Both boys required extensive treatment at Children's Hospital Colorado, spent their young lives existing on the edge of life, and continue to live with health issues. The pain and suffering that his children have gone through troubles Wayne deeply and brings him to tears when he talks about it.
"People tell me 'thank you' today for my service…that's a mistake. I tell them, you know what, that's the worst mistake I made in my life - and you want to know why? And they'll say Why? I'll say, I created two kids who suffered every day of their lives and got nothin' because I stood up. Carry that weight."
While his children were struggling, Wayne was trying to survive his own growing list of health issues. He was having a range of severe allergic and anaphylactic reactions. "Nobody knew anything, nobody knew a damn thing." He describes, more than once, driving down the road and having to pull into a fire department for help because of a sudden reaction. There were times the paramedic announced that Wayne had no registrable blood pressure. In later years he received allergy testing and learned what triggered his reactions and is now able to manage himself better. He's now also on a steady dose of Prednisone that helps to manage his reactions.
Wayne says that he is one of the very few veterans known to have received a service connected disability from the VA for toxic exposures at Fort McClellan. The way he tells it, a combination of 8 years of work, luck, gumption, persistence and divine intervention helped get his claim approved and settled.
Mastocytosis, Leukemia, Colon Cancer, Prostate Cancer, Bladder Cancer, COPD, Central Sleep Apnea, leg, ankle and foot pain and swelling, and Anaphylaxis are part of Wayne's long list of health issues. He also has trouble with his shoulders and torn bicep tendons.

Based in the beautiful Cotswolds in England, I'm a wedding photographer who really wouldn't wish to do anything else. In fact someone once said to me that my wedding pictures reflect a real love for what I do: a sentiment that I've never forgotten and one I'm proud to recognise as true.
My approach has always been to make beautiful, natural pictures that really mean something: fusing classical, elegant wedding portraiture with fly on the wall photojournalism - mixing the formal with the informal while always looking for great settings, interesting things, to make my pictures unique and truly personal.
And I work very hard because I know how much a wedding means to so many people. Few weddings run to plan which is why I don't put any time limits on what I do. In fact I genuinely enjoy being a part of the evening's celebrations, taking pictures of so many happy people looking like they haven't a care in the world.
"It was an amazing day and Ian you were fantastic! Everyone that has seen the photos loves them and you were amazing on the day, became more a guest than a photographer and we very much enjoyed having you there from morning to night! Legend! We love our photos thank you! And our guest liked you so much that I believe you're already booked for another wedding from them, in which I am best man! So see you again soon!

If you find it hard to answer these questions, then our eye make up techniques will help. Listed below we give you the best eye makeup techniques for your eye shape and how to achieve the best eye make up styles for these.
If you have almond shaped eyes, you will have very little natural creasing in your eye lid. The best eye make up style for this is to create a contrast between the eyelid and the brow bone.
In order to do this you will need to use eyeliner to line both the upper and lower eyelids. Keep the line as close as you can to your eyelashes. Next use a light shade eye shadow from your lashes to your brow. Then use a medium shade on your eyelid, and then a darker shade on the outer third of your eyelid. To finish this look apply mascara to both the upper and lower lids.
If your eyes are close set you will need to try and create an illusion of width. The eye make up style that you use to create this involves emphasizing the outer edges of your eyes.
Start by using eyeliner on the outer half of both your top and bottom eyelids. Then apply a light colored eye shadow from the eyelash line to the brow. Taking your darker shade of eye shadow, you will then apply this from the outer third of the eyelid to just beyond the eyes edge. Finish with mascara on top and bottom.
Deep set eyes will normally have a very prominent eyebrow bone and this can cause your eyelids to appear hidden. The key here is to make your eyes look more open.
Again as in all our eye make up techniques, you will need to use eyeliner on both the top and bottom eyelids. Smudge the eyeliner to soften the line. Apply a light shade of eye shadow from the eyelash to the eyebrow line, darkening it slightly above the eyelid crease. Blend your eye shadow at the edges to soften the appearance. This will help to bring the appearance of the eyelid forward. Finish with a couple of coats of mascara.
The make up technique for wide set eyes is to make them appear closer. To do this you will to apply eyeliner to both the top and bottom eyelids. Apply a light eye shadow over the entire eyelid. Use a darker shade of eye shadow in the inner corner of the eye lid and blend this up and out. Finish with mascara that is more prominent on the inner corner of the eye.
If you have round eyes, you will need to make them appear slightly elongated. To achieve this you will need to apply eyeliner to both the top and bottom eyelids, extending the liner just beyond the outer corners. With your eye shadow, you will need to focus the light color on the outer section of the eyebrow bone making sure that it is brushed outwards. When finishing with your mascara, you will need to concentrate more on the upper lashes and especially the outer corners of the eyes.
Remember the right eye make up can help to add to the beauty of your eyes.

Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority
State rebuilt 5.1 square miles of coast with $500M in fines since BP Deepwater Horizon
Mark Schleifstein, NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune
Apr 18, 2019 - 12:42 am
Just four days before the ninth anniversary of the catastrophic BP Deepwater Horizon explosion and oil spill, state coastal officials outlined how they are using the disaster's silver lining – billions of dollars in fines and other payments – to rebuild 5.1 square miles of the state's eroding coastline.
About $510 million paid by BP and its partners for their roles involving BP's failed Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico already has been used to complete restoration work on seven major projects, Greg Gandy, deputy executive director of the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority, told authority board members on Wednesday (April 17). And another $6.8 billion will be used on dozens of other projects through 2032, the deadline for the companies to pay money owed under various court settlement agreements.
"Even though this is just a start, what we've done so far without any Louisiana taxpayers' dollars is impressive, and there is much more to come," Grandy told the board. "But let's never forget why we're getting this funding and why we need it. The loss of life suffered on that rig, and the oil that flowed into the Gulf for months was devastating to our people, our environment, our economy, our fisheries and wildlife. There is much to remedy, and we are working hard to do just that."
The state receives money from a variety of funding streams stemming from legal action taken against BP and its partners after the accident:
Criminal penalties totaling $1.272 billion, overseen by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, must be used for either rebuilding barrier islands or the construction and design of major sediment diversions on the Mississippi River by the terms of the criminal settlements with BP and Transocean.
State hires contractor team to build Mid-Breton Sediment Diversion
Louisiana's share of Natural Resource Damage Assessment payments required under the Oil Spill Act of 1990, totaling at least $5 billion, were agreed to by BP as part of a global settlement with federal, state and parish governments.
And more than $930 million in Clean Water Act civil fines directed to Louisiana under the federal Restore Act.
Much of that money is being paid to the state in increments over 15 years ending in 2032.
The state also was given $360 million directly by BP in the weeks after the spill in 2010 to use on its plan to build sand berms along existing barrier islands along the coast to capture oil before it moved beyond the islands into more fragile wetlands. When the well was capped, BP agreed to allow the state to use more than $120 million of the remaining berm money for barrier island restoration projects.
Projects that already have been completed include:
Increment 2 of the Lake Hermitage wetlands restoration project in Plaquemines Parish, including 104 acres of new wetlands, built with $14.4 million in BP NRDA money and completed in 2016.
Future projects include the rebuilding of North Breton Island in Plaquemines, part of the Breton Islands National Refuge, which will be put out to bid this summer; reconstruction of Queen Bess Island in Plaquemines, which is currently out to bid.
"Both are important bird habitats," Grandy said.
Criminal fine money overseen by the NFWF and oil spill damage assessment money also will continue to pay for design of the Mid-Barataria and Mid-Breton sediment diversions on the west and east banks of the Mississippi in Plaquemines, and possibly a share of their construction costs.
Restore Act money also is being used for engineering and design costs for the proposed Houma Navigational Canal Lock Hydraulic Restoration project; a proposed salinity control structure on the Calcasieu Ship Channel; a project to reintroduce Mississippi river water into the Maurepas Swamp to revive cypress-tupelo swamp; and to add engineered oyster reef structures as a living shoreline along the Biloxi Marsh in St. Bernard Parish.
Also receiving funding is a project to rebuild marshes in the Golden Triangle area in the northwest corner of Lake Borgne in New Orleans and St. Bernard.
Grandy said a number of projects that were on an August 2013 list of spill money projects will now be funded with other money sources.
"Over the next 15 years we expect to receive more than $3 billion in offshore revenue shared through the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act - GOMESA," said CPRA Chairman Chip Kline. "We continue to fund projects with state mineral funds dedicated to our efforts, and we have our valued federal CWPPRA partnerships."
The Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act, established in 1990, has been used by the state to design or build close to $2 billion in projects, and still receives about $80 million a year in federal funds.
Meanwhile, the state continues to work with the federal-state Louisiana Trustee Implementation Group to determine how to use the rest of the $5 billion in NRDA money.
The trustees have already approved spending $60 million on 23 recreation-related projects.

Q: Where is the cookbook_file stored on Chef Server I've created a very basic recipe:
cookbook_file "cookbook_test_file" do
  path "/tmp/test_file123"
  action [:create_if_missing, :create]
end

I've also created the cookbook_test_file file under files->default in my cookbook and added the recipe to the run book.
Everything works perfectly.
The file gets propagated to the client. If the file is changed on the client then next time I run chef-client - the file gets updated as expected.  No issues.
However, I can't find cookbook_test_file anywhere on the chef server.I tried to fully qualify the default directory for the file as follows:
/usr/local/bin/cookbook_test_file but to no avail.
Where are these files stored on the chef server? ? I did not see it in the PostgreSQL database either.
Thank you.

A: They end up in the bookshelf file storage, but not in a directly useable way. Look in /var/opt/chef-server/bookshelf, the files are stored by content hash and have a CRC check prepended to them.
The file metadata is all stored in Postgres though, either in the sandbox data or the cookbook version.

A: @coderanger has provided the answer you're looking for I think.
What I'd like to add is that knife can be used to check what was uploaded as part of a cookbook. The following example returns all the files in the apache2 cookbook:
$ knife cookbook show apache2 2.0.0 files -Fj
[
  {
    "name": "apache2_module_conf_generate.pl",
    "path": "files/default/apache2_module_conf_generate.pl",
    "checksum": "424ea6efb9da5b8cd9739f7f0f1fc9d5",
    "specificity": "default",
    "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8889/file_store/checksums/424ea6efb9da5b8cd9739f7f0f1fc9d5"
  }

Axel Lennart Svedring, född 14 september 1913 i Leksand, död där 8 november 2002, var en svensk målare och tecknare.

Han var son till muraren Svedu Anders Eriksson och Anna Wigander och från 1939 gift med Sigrid Maria Ahlgren. Efter avslutad skolgång arbetade Svedring som snickare fram till 1947 varav ett 15-tal år i Stockholm. Han studerade konst och fick handledning av Wilhelm Skoglund som kom att betyda mycket för Svedrings konstnärskap. Han reste runt i Norge på 1950-talet och i Norrland på 1960-talet för att hitta motiv för sina målningar men merparten av hans motiv kommer från norra Dalarna. Han medverkade i samlingsutställningar i Leksand. Hans konst består av stilleben, figurmotiv, djur och landskapsskildringar. Svedring är representerad vid Klockargården i Tällberg och Rättviks skola.

Q: SPGridView HeaderStyle Background All,
I am trying to find the styles for the SPGridView HeaderStyle.  It doesn't seem to work when i apply the following:
        spGridView.HeaderStyle.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue;
        spGridView.HeaderStyle.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.White;

It looks very strange.  I have filtered columns and sort only columns.  The sort only columns show up with no background, and the sort only columns show up somewhat okay, but they have a border where the dropdown for the filter context menu should be.
How do I fix this?
See the image in this URL (I couldn't post it because I am a new user and they require i add more points):
http://spgridview.com/files/2-26-2012%2011-57-51%20PM.png

A: Here is what I did, it seemed to work.
But i know its not the final answer.
<style type="text/css">
.ms-viewheadertr th{
padding-top:0px;
background-color:#2878C0;

.ms-vh .ms-menuimagecell img,.ms-vh2 .ms-menuimagecell img,.ms-vh-icon .ms-menuimagecell img{

}
</style>

A: Maybe It's not what you are looking for, I'm just sharing. I used this styles in all of my project whenever I utilize SPGridView to display data.
 Style="border-bottom-style: none; border-right-style: none; width: 100%;

No to reparations; yes to leaving Syria; and big yes to Livermore!

Native American reparations first
Regarding Gabriel Greschler's article on black reparations ("Atonement: The Jewish case for black reparations"), if we're going to use the Holocaust as the model for justifying reparations, then we need look no further than Native Americans as the worthiest recipients. They were the victims of a long genocidal campaign by the U.S. government, most notably in the decades following the Civil War, where the quote by General Sherman that "the only good Indian is a dead Indian" became the marching orders for the U.S. Cavalry up till Wounded Knee in 1890. Those who survived were subjected to having their land confiscated at gunpoint, in many if not most cases in violation of treaties which the U.S. government had signed. And, under Grant and subsequent administrations, it was U.S. policy to pursue the elimination of Native American culture, language and religion. Talking about reparations for past injustice in our country without mentioning Native Americans is equivalent to talking about Nazi war crimes without mentioning Jews.
Forever reparations?
"The Jewish case for black reparations" suggested that, since victims of Nazi travesties were paid reparations by Germany, so too should the USA now pay reparations to American Blacks — at least six generations after slavery ended in America (1865). Also cited was "The 1619 Project," which incorrectly asserts that slavery began in the United States in 1619. There was no USA in 1619! Also suggested: "Previously" governing nations should provide reparations.
North America's 13 colonies were founded by independent, political and religious British groups. In 1776, those independent colonies joined to wage a civil war against Britain. The colonists, victorious in 1783, presented the new "United States of America" to the world.
In 1803, America purchased the France-owned "Louisiana Territory," from which many "slave states" were eventually formed. In 1819, the USA acquired Florida from Spain. Britain abolished slavery in 1833 but never considered reparations for slaves across the British Empire. Will reparations be demanded from England, France and Spain?
Post World War II, many first-generation Jewish Americans had parents who immigrated here to escape Nazi Europe or its aftermath. Germany paid monthly reparations to many of our parents and grandparents — while alive — for the economic loss that they themselves had suffered. Neither I nor any of my American-born Jewish friends considered seeking reparations; they simply did not apply to us. Indeed, the vast majority of America's Jewish population was not here during America's slavery period.
How many generations after America abolished slavery would such "reparations" end — if ever?

Livermore: best place on Earth
I started Shabbat Shuvah morning at Congregation Beth Emek. Founded in 1956, Beth Emek has been my Jewish home for almost 40 years, first in Livermore and, since 2005, in Pleasanton.
After Shabbat services, I went back to Livermore where I enjoyed food, music and dance at the eighth annual "Taste of Africa in the Heart of Livermore" festival. I then headed to the Livermore Airport — one of the top hundred in the country — for the 23rd annual open house and air show.
Later that day, I opened the J. to the Jew in the Pew column ("Connection and renewal at fire-damaged Chabad's celebration of unity"), which began by comparing Pleasanton with "most of the Earth's extremities." If Pleasanton is the end of the earth, what does that say about Livermore, even further east? Don't bother to answer. After spending many years at UC Berkeley, I've heard it all.
The Tri-Valley has always been underrated by points west. Livermore is home to more than 60 wineries, two national labs, its own element (Livermorium 116), a long ranching history, a large Latinx population, a lively arts scene and a powerful sense of community. I love it and wouldn't live anywhere else.
With that in mind, let me extend an invitation to Jew in the Pew's author: Join me for a Tri-Valley Shabbat. Following services at Beth Emek, we can wander through Livermore's "ArtWalk" or enjoy the first Livermore Pride Festival, then hit some wineries and walk though some of the regional parks. You won't be sorry.

On board with Trump strategy
Let's give some credit to the Trump administration in its Middle East calculus. The Kurds have now allied with Assad/Russia, and it is Syria defending its territory against Turkey. The Kurds have found their solution without us, and Turkey had planned to dump 1 million Syrian Arab refugees into Kurdish regions, which would have been a humanitarian disaster.
Trump has just committed 3,000 troops to Saudi Arabia, and they will also work the Patriot missile systems to block more Iranian aggression against Saudi oil fields. This may be a geopolitical calculation that Saudi Arabia is worth defending, while the Kurds are not (I do not agree with this proposition, but from U.S. interests' point of view, it can make sense).
There is little public interest to intervene in Syria, while there is a lot at stake with Saudi Arabia. If the U.S. can protect the Saudis, then it bolsters Israel to have more confidence that Trump will give Saudi Arabia and Israel a pass in support against Iran — the only two entities that can thwart Iran and justify U.S. support. Note that both Israel and Saudi Arabia have billions in U.S.- made equipment and technology, and so there is a bigger investment in their success.
Shifting sands, but perhaps a Saudi Arabia and Israeli tacit alliance with U.S. support is the best hope to stop Iranian aggression.

Len Traubman, a true mensch
Alix Wall's moving tribute to Len Traubman practically left me in tears ("Len Traubman, who got Jews and Palestinians talking, dies at 80"). Dr. Traubman was my childhood dentist. Despite his profession, his gentleness always reminded me of Mr. Rogers.
When I was around 12, I started becoming interested in trading my family tree but was stymied by being too young to get access to most records (internet genealogy was in its infancy). An offhand comment to Len during a cleaning led to the gift of his own self-published family history, as well as encouragement to keep going and not get discouraged.
Len and his wife, Libby, also embodied the idea of menschlichkeit — kindness without strings. Every time he was in the news, it was for doing something good, particularly building bridges of dialogue and understanding between groups who often saw each other as enemies. On a few occasions I saw him get verbally attacked by critics, either in the press or online. He was always a perfect gentleman, letting the other party have their say and never feeling the need to argue. He knew what was right and that was enough.
The world was a better place while he was here. The world needs more Len Traubmans. The usual comment when someone dies is a prayer that their memory will be a blessing. For the thousands of people Len touched with his kindness and empathy, I have no doubt this will be true for many years to come.

Anti-Semitism, the great unifier
I am afraid that Rabbi Niles Elliot Goldstein's appeal for a dignified and tolerant discourse ("May the Days of Awe help us embrace what's important") may fall on deaf ears. Yes, Beit Hillel and Beit Shammai hotly, but respectfully, discussed "an esoteric matter." But they shared a common interest of advancing Judaism, especially, in modern terms, Jewish ethics.
Nowadays, the right and left share few common interests. While Jews on the right find pride and excitement in Judaism, those on the left do not always do so. As for Israel, to the right the Jewish state, with all its faults and misdeeds, is a manifestation of the Zionist dream of Jews living free in the Jewish ancestral homeland, while some on the left believe it is an apartheid state oppressing the innocent Palestinians.
Still, there is one factor that may unite the Jewish right and Jewish left. Enter anti-Semitism. And just look at the reaction of Jews belonging to both sides and no sides at all to the anti-Semitic ethnic studies curriculum draft produced by the advisory committee of the California Department of Education (DoE). The avalanche of condemnations was so swift and resolute that the DoE has shelved the draft. Although there is no concluding decree on its fate, yet.
For anti-Semites, every Jew is an evildoer and Zionist. They don't distinguish between right and left, between Jews interpreting the Torah one way or another, or seeing Israel from different perspectives. The spread of anti-Semitism may, just may, force Jews of all stripes to realize that the common identity and common homeland is more important than winning points in the right/left strife.
Vladimir Kaplan
Civic studies, not ethnic studies
Jerome Berkman's letter is right ("You've got to be taught to hate"). The evidence suggests that we are losing the war against anti-Israel and anti-Semitic content in California schools. Actually, "suggests" does not go far enough.
It is civic education that should concern the State Department of Education, not some so-called curriculum claiming to educate regarding ethnic diversity but which was "mysteriously" (read "intentionally") hijacked. Who was responsible for this frightening fiasco?
E pluribus unum, not hostile ethnic (grievance) studies, must guide the California State Department of Education. We must promote understanding and acceptance among our diverse population by studying the contributions of all Americans as Americans, instead of divisively focusing on people as members of groups. A simple reference to a person as a hyphenated American should suffice to remind our students that we may come from many places, but we are all Americans now.
The students' home environments play a large role, and schools might reach out to parents with the e pluribus unum message. Matter-of-fact comfort with diverse backgrounds in California will develop naturally for our children if they and their families see themselves first as Americans, instead of as members of groups.

A: Please pay attention whenever you send a response, it doesn't mean that the execution ends, and also the HTTP has just only one response per request. Hence, to stop the execution of a function you always need to put return.
There are some parts in your code, which makes trouble:
newUser.token = token;
res.status(201).json(newUser);

Here you must decide whether to send the client or continue checking the database.
Because a few lines after, you have this condition, which might send the client another response:
if(!newUser.name || !newUser.email || !newUser.phone || ! newUser.work || !newUser.password){
  return res.status(422).json({error: "Plz fill the required field"});
}

The same issue happened in your signin route:
bcrypt.compare(req.body.password, foundUser.password, function (err, result) {
  if(result){
    res.json({message: "successfully log in"})
  }else{
    res.json({message: "incorrect password"});
  }
});
...
res.status(200).json(foundUser);

The post investigates a circuit which can be used for negating or neutralizing the everlasting harmful low frequency EMFs created from our mains power line in our homes. The idea was requested by one of the interested readers of this blog.
I'm trying to find a device or plans to build a device that will generate random EMF noise in the frequencies of 30 Hz - 100 Hz with an adjustable output of about 10 mG to 50 mG. The purpose is to disrupt the cellular oscillation caused by a constant 60 Hz high EMF in my house. Anyone have suggestions?
The debated harmful effects produced by the continues presence of various EMF content could range from regular headache attacks, uneasiness, insomnia, anemia, and even cancer.
It is said that if there could be a way to reveal the magnitude of man made EMF around us, we all would appear like swimming in a pool of EMF curd.
The advent of wireless technology has made our everyday lives so much dependent on it that now it looks impossible to detach ourselves from this harmful invisible enclosure.
The EMF surrounding us can be fundamentally classified into high frequency RF or radio waves and extremely low frequency EMF.
Both types are proved to have their own negative impacts on our health, however low frequency EMF being more easily reachable to us is regarded to be potentially much harmful than the RFs.
The main sources of these ELF EMFs could be our mains radiation from our domestic 50/60 Hz line through TV sets, mixer grinders, amplifiers, ovens etc.
As requested above an effective remedy to negate the influence of these radiations is to generate a counter ELF EMF having randomly changing frequency in the atmosphere near us or simply in homes.
As shown in the below given home EMF protector or neutralizer circuit, we have a configuration which is capable of emitting different levels of low frequency EMFs in the surrounding in a random manner.
These emissions are likely to interact with the existing ELF EMFs producing a cancelling or neutralizing effect.
The IC 4060 is as usual configured as a free running oscillator.
The outputs from pin#1 to pin#7 produce frequencies varying with a factor of 2x, meaning a particular output could be consisting frequency 2x than the previous pinout or x/2 than the preceding pinout.
All these pinouts with individual frequency outputs are linked with respective common collector transistor configuration.
The bases of these transistors are in turn controlled by the sequential switching output from the IC 4017 which is clocked by the lowest frequency pinout of the IC 4060 itself.
Thus the 8 transistors are switched randomly such that they allow randomly selected frequencies to appear at the base of the power transistor TIP122.
The TIP122 responds to these random frequency switching and oscillates the connected inductor accordingly.
The coil being subjected to these oscillations at high current levels start emitting the respective random ELF EMFs in the surrounding atmosphere for the intended neutralization effects over of the existing harmful mains radiation.
The power required for operating this proposed EMF neutralizer or protector circuit is 12V at 3 amps.
The inductor used could be a matter of experimentation. To begin with 500 turns of 30 SWG could be tried over a large laminated iron E-core block.
The 100k pot gives an option of setting the IC 4060 with different ranges of frequencies across all the outputs, as per individual preference or surrounding EMF level conditions.
is there any possibility to increase the range?
Sir, i am doing this project.
Deva, I do not have any videos, but I can guarantee the circuit will work 100%…. however it is not verified whether it can actually help to neutralize the EMF radiations or not, because there's no way to check this.
In ic 4060 , why pin #2 is not connected ?
Raj, each pin in the sequence is 2 times faster in frequency than the previous pin. Pin#3 is slowest, pin#2 is 2 times faster than pin#3, pin#1 is 2 times faster than pin#2…and so on.
Suppose If we select pin#3 as 1 pulse per second then pin#2 will be 2 pulse per second, which is quite slow or less in frequency and may not be useful for the required purpose, therefore I have eliminated pin#2.
Raj, it will depend on the frequency and the inductor value, but in general the range will be within 100 sq ft.
hello sir, i got all the component that i need to make this circuit, but i don't know about the inductor. could you please tell me the detail for that inductor? "200 turns magnet wire over an iron bolt". What size of magnet wire and iron bolt?
Hi Rama, The coil is actually a random selection, because we do not exactly know what frequencies need to be neutralized, and it could also depends on the frequency adjusted by the pot.
Initially you can try a small 12/220V/500ma transformer, and connect the 0-12V side with the transistor.
And make sure to adjust the pot such that pin#3 of IC 4060 generates a frequency of not less than 2Hz.
THe 220V side can be used as an antenna for propagating the waves.
I am planning to build the circuit, however it is difficult to find the inductor here. Is there some option online where I can buy one?
Thank you sir for the valuable input, I will let know once the circuit is complete.
Also additionally it would helpful to know if you know of a way to measure EMF levels at home using any android app.
Sir how can we understand whether this circuit is working or not ? How can it be felt to have the surrounding emf got reduced ?
you may be able to see improvements in your sleeping pattern (more clamness while you go to sleep), no dreams), lower stress levels, less tiredness etc.

Over the past decade, significant federal legislation (the Brady Bill, the National Child Protection Act, the Volunteers for Children Act, and the Patriot Act) and funding initiatives (National Criminal History Improvement Program, Edward Byrne Memorial Block Grant "5% Set Aside" Program, and the Crime Identification Technology Act) have emphasized the need for the improvement of criminal history records across the country, as well as the need for justice information to be shared across disciplines. The sustained emphasis on improved information and sharing derives from the national interest in accurate data for background checks on firearm purchases; pre-employment searches on person serving children, the elderly, and the disabled; and increasingly for homeland security background searches and investigations. Rapid identification of persons by fingerprints and electronic data sharing in standardized formats are core goals for all of these programs.
The Crime Records Service depends heavily on state and local law enforcement agencies across the country, as well as the FBI. The Interstate Identification Index is a cooperative program between the FBI and the states to facilitate the exchange of information among those states and the FBI in order to reduce duplication of effort in records retention and demands accurate information for success. NCIC 2000 is a FBI program that links local and state communications systems into a shared database where information concerning wanted persons, stolen firearms, stolen automobiles, missing persons, terrorists, etc., can be accessed by any participant. Currently, this program is being expanded to simplify and broaden search capability.
