Don't count Schumer out: He plans to force votes on evidence, testimony that will 'squeeze' Republicans
While, in the run-up to the impeachment trial, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has appeared to be unflinching in his support of President Donald Trump, he should not underestimate his political rival, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, Politico reports.
Indeed, although McConnell already has locked up enough Republican votes to ignore demands for a bipartisan framework for the trial, his Democratic counterpart is preparing a counteroffensive. Schumer plans to force a series of votes designed to squeeze vulnerable Republicans and harm them on the campaign trail if they side with Trump, the news outlet says.
Democrats argue the half-dozen at-risk GOP senators will need some daylight between them and Trump to get reelected. And if they vote against Schumer's motions to hear new evidence and witness testimony, they'll be seen as Trump sycophants — undermining their bids and boosting Schumer's odds of becoming majority leader.
Support for obtaining new documents at the trial is "even stronger than we thought, with large numbers of Republicans supporting it," Schumer said in an interview with Politico. "And when you go against what the American people feel strongly about, on an issue they're paying attention to, it's not a good idea."
Public surveys in key swing states back up Democrats' claims. Polling from Hart Research found that 63% of voters in Arizona, Colorado, Maine and North Carolina would react unfavorably if their senator voted against calling witnesses or subpoenaing documents during the Senate impeachment trial.
Another poll from Morning Consult found 57% of voters believe the Senate should call additional witnesses. That includes 71% of Democrats, 56% of Independents, and 40% of Republicans.
What's more, the president's former National Security Adviser John Bolton's offer to testify has given some momentum to Democrats' calls for witnesses and documents about the White House's decision to withhold military aid to Ukraine. Democrats also want to hear from Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, Office of Management and Budget official Michael Duffey, and Mulvaney Adviser Robert Blair.
"If the Republicans ram through process that ultimately leads to no witnesses, I think they do it at their own peril," Senator Bob Menendez (D-New Jersey), a former chairman of the party's campaign arm, told Politico. "Some of these members: They have an audience of one. But I think they forgot that there's a broader audience that they're going to have to face at election time."
"The procedural votes may be more important than the vote on removal or acquittal. Because what will matter more to voters than where a senator lands is how he or she got there," said Geoff Garin, a Democratic pollster for Hart Research. "So if Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine) or any of the other Republicans vote for acquittal and the takeaway for voters is this is a political or partisan vote on an important issue, that will have a long lasting impact."
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has said that she will release the articles of impeachment to McConnell this week.

Though the niche is surprisingly varied, proofreading jobs generally fall into two broad categories: general proofreading and technical proofreading. The former covers non-technical, relatively unspecialized media like blogs and books. The latter covers transcripts and other technical materials; court reporters, for instance, are seasoned technical proofreaders. Which you choose depends on your innate strengths as a proofreader and what you're hoping to get out of the job. Technical proofreading is harder to break into but typically pays better; general proofreading is more competitive but easier to launch.

Forgot your password? By Puckman , May 4, in Electric Guitars. A friend of mine has a Start that he can't seem to identify. He doesn't know anything about guitars, which doesn't really help. I am not somewhere where I can see said guitar. Serial number starts with MZ5 which confirms it as a Mexican made guitar. But would I be able to tell from the number itself if it's a standard strat, 50th anniversary strat, deluxe player strat, or whatever else strats are made in Mexico? So what other strats are made in mexico besides the standard?

The serial numer on the guitar shows 6 digits following the MZ4. Can you give me any info on whether this is a real of fake fender strat. Fenders serial number descriptions on need to be revised and to.
At that time, it was suggested that there might be as few as four replicas made. These guitars have serial numbers, but they are NOT serialized 1 through Each guitar John Cruz makes, regardless what kind of guitar, gets the next serial number in line. He mentioned to me that Jimmie was getting three of the guitars. Mine is JC which Mr. Cruz informed me was the 12th Tribute Strat.
There is no shortage of criticism of the project. I do not see it as different from any other product – where there is a demand, someone is going to fill it.
In late , Fender decided to move to a new numbering scheme for their serialization. The numbers appeared on the pegheads and for the remainder of they had a prefix of 76 or S6 preceding a 5 digit sequence. In , the serialization went to a letter for the decade, followed by a single digit for the year and then 5 to 6 digits. I Do not know if you see what is happening here!

Normally the difference between the standard Fender brands and the Squier brands of guitar are clear and plain, but in the 90s, a number of guitars were released by Fender that blurred this distinction. The Fender "Squier Series" of Stratocasters will not be familiar to many guitar fans, but in this piece, we'll take a look at this unique series and what marks them out from the usual budget range of Squier guitars. Following my recent experiences with a Fender Stratocaster that I bought at eBay, I thought I would put together this page to help other potential buyers spot if they are getting a standard or "Squier Series" Stratocaster.
It turns out that the one I bought was not a standard Fender Stratocaster despite being sold to me as one. What I didn't know, and nor did the seller was that this was in fact a "Squier Series" Stratocaster. I'd not heard of these sort of guitars before so at first was a bit worried I'd bought a dud. Don't get me wrong, it is a lovely guitar, but I uncovered a surprise when I took the neck off to make some adjustments.
There in the neck pocket was a stamp that said Squier. I was initially horrified thinking I had a cheaper body stuck on the guitar neck, but turned to the internet to try to learn what was going on. Before I'd played with this guitar I hadn't suspected that it was anything other than a Fender Stratocaster. The body was a lot more solid and heavier than the Squier Stratocasters I had tried from the same era.
It all felt right and sounded great.

The first number following the prefix is the year. Used in early 90's, featured the a high gloss maple neck with a slimmer 40mm body made from plywood. The plant from which the COB serial number prefix models originate remains a mystery. No documentation, or comment from the manufacturer has resolved the question of which plant produced them. Probably made by Yako Taiwan. Some Squier IIs were made in India around The serial number is printed on a sticker located on the back of the neck, close to where the neck attaches to the body.
Because the number was placed on a sticker it is fairly common for the serial number to be missing.

Pre productions also frequently omit the factory letter codes and appeared as all digits, e. A single digit month of manufacture may occur for some and earlier models.

The system uses running model numbers rather than a dedicated code for year, month, and place of manufacture.
Fender began producing instruments in its Ensenada, Mexico, factory in The numbers for each year typically overlap, as there is always a transitional period between successive years and as necks that are made and serial numbered late in any given year are used on instruments assembled in the early months of the following year.

How Old is My Mexican Fender Stratocaster? Contents This way the country of origin and the date of production can be coded into the serial number. This time.
So you need to figure out the year of production for your Fender guitar or bass. You're not alone. Fenders rank as the most frequently bought and sold instruments on Reverb , and finding a precise date of manufacture can be key to determining the value and specifics of an instrument. The most important thing to keep in mind when dating a Fender is the highly modular nature of the designs.
Like Henry Ford, part of Leo Fender's genius was in optimizing the company's production efficiency. His guitars were built en masse by an entire factory, not a single luthier toiling over one instrument at a time. Features like bolt-on necks and pickups wired into the pickguard all helped the Fender factory churn out guitar after guitar, day after day.
This also means that various parts used on a particular guitar may have come from different points in time, so no single number can absolutely define when the instrument was built. Instead, the best approach to dating a Fender is to combine indicators from the design of the instrument, the dates found on the neck and body, along with the serial number. Once you have the information you need, if you're interested in selling your Fender, you can use Reverb to get it in front of the largest audience of musicians in the world by clicking on this link.
Perhaps the best place to start when dating your Fender is to get an approximate idea of the era based on the instrument's design and components.

Autism Spectrum Disorders in Adults Living in Households Throughout England - 2007, Report from the Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey
Publication, Part of Autism Spectrum Disorders in Adults Living in Households Throughout England
Official statistics, National statistics, Survey
Country, Government Office Regions
01 Oct 2006 to 31 Dec 2007
This report presents data on the presence of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), based on the data collected at phases one and two of the Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey (APMS) 2007. These findings were not included in the initial survey report. Estimated disorder prevalence is presented by age, sex, ethnic group, marital status, highest educational qualification, equivalised household income, economic activity status, receipt of benefits, housing tenure, area level deprivation and predicted verbal IQ. The level and nature of treatment and service use is considered, although the sample size means that this cannot be explored in detail.
Using the recommended threshold of a score of 10 or more on the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, 1.0 per cent of the adult population had ASD. Published childhood population studies show the prevalence rate among children is also approximately 1.0 per cent.
The ASD prevalence rate was higher in men (1.8 per cent) than women (0.2 per cent). This fits with the gender profile found in childhood population studies.
There is no indication of any increased use of treatment or services for mental or emotional problems among adults with ASD. This is borne out by the recent National Audit Office publication "Supporting People with Autism Through Adulthood".
A greater proportion of single people were assessed with ASD than people of other marital statuses combined. This was particularly evident among men.
Prevalence of ASD was associated with educational qualification, particularly among men. The rate for men was lowest among those with a degree level qualification and highest among those with no qualifications.
Accessing the Autism Spectrum Disorders datasets
The datasets from the Autism Spectrum Disorders in adults living in households throughout England are available from the UK Data Archive via their ESDS website.
Note: it takes at least 4 months from publication for the latest datasets to be available.
Full details on how to access the resources are available on the UK Data Archive sign up page.

Monash Mayor Geoff Lake plays 'Simon Says' and councillors raise their hands
Abalinx Peter Adamis 27 May 2016
Politics is like swimming in a whirlpool full of sharks and if one does not know how to survive the spinning and changes in directions they are bound to be eaten and/or worse sucked in and drowned. A copy of the article may be downloaded by clicking on: Monash Mayor Geoff Lake plays 'Simon Says' and councillors raise their hands
One way or another, little fish never get to be any bigger and the only way to avoid this scenario is to never allow yourself to become involved with sharks or find yourself in a whirlpool without an end. This leads me to why I wrote this article and for whom it is intended. I leave it to the readers to sift through the maelstrom of the jargon and make their own assumptions.
I would like to draw readers attention to a recent article in the Monash Leader on May 26, 2016 by Christine McGinn which caught my eye and I felt to come to the rescue of an old friend. Mind you, I have not seen that friend for some time and yet, it would be remiss of me if I did not take action and report on a potential seduction of a friend to the dark side of politics. The article was about Geoff Lake the current Mayor of Monash City Council and his latest ruling on behaviour.
Geoff Lake the current Mayor of Monash City Council is fast becoming a legend in his own life time. Not only is he becoming nonchalant about his leadership style, he leave a lot to be desired in his communication with his Councillors. Not content with being the mayor, he now wishes to create an environment that is almost reminiscent of a state within a state and he does not care who he upsets to create that environment of his choice. On the other hand the people of Monash should be asking whether their Mayor is qualified to run a Kindergarten given his recent comments of: "If you behave like children you have got to expect you will be treated like children,"
An example of his latest escapade involves the seduction of Russell Hannan, the current Liberal Party Treasurer, Past President and former Mayor and currently working for a Federal Minister, to monitor the behaviour of the council meetings for a paltry $10,000. If this is not a bribe, then it certainly is a honeypot that could rival that of the evils that fled Pandora's Box. Surely Geoff Lake does not believe that Russel Hannan to be so gullible, naïve and stupid as to take up his offer when he well knows that given Russel Hannan's political associations and affiliations will be in direct conflict with Liberal minded Councillors on the Monash City Council.
But then again Geoff Lake the Mayor is not without blemish or controversy himself when considering his own background and actions regarding matters that attract political actions. Geoff Lake to his credit will do what it takes to remain relevant to the people of Monash and if it means becoming a creative and innovative disruptive councillor, then so be it. According to news media reports, Geoff Lake's actions have included matters such as:
1. He was against making changes to the Victorian Electoral Commission. However, former Monash mayor Geoff Lake said the proposed changes being considered by the Victorian Electoral Commission was anti-democratic because it would remove voters' right to know candidate preferences at the time of voting, as in a postal ballot.
2. He clashed with 3AW talkback radio host Neil Mitchell after he was criticised for starting up the "nature strip police". Mitchell spoke with Geoff Lake over the Monash Council's proposal to fine homeowners $200 if grass on the nature strip in front of their properties grows longer than 30cm.
3. Geoff Lake had a free dinner and hospitality at Mr Bowness' birthday bash, and was given a ticket and hospitality to the Australian Open tennis men's semi-final in 2014 and 2013, as well as dinner for Mr and Mrs Lake in 2012. From my point of view I don't see a problem or a conflict of interest with this but public perception and integrity representation is another matter.
4. Cricket Victoria also treated him to hospitality at the Australia versus England One Day International in 2014.
5. Cr Lake was also shown hospitality at the September Club courtesy of the City of Melbourne in 2014.
6. The City of Melbourne is also keeping close ties with Cr Lake giving him free tickets to Oaks Day, the men's final at the Australian Open, and to see Hawthorn and Essendon battle it out at the MCG in June last year.
7. He declared that Blackrock Real Estate Asia Fund II paid for his flights and accommodation to Tokyo and Shanghai to attend a forum in November 2014.
8. While he was Monash councillor he contested and won a bitterly fought pre-selection to contest the seat being vacated by long-serving Labor frontbencher Simon Crean. However allegations of stalking a political rival surfaced after he won the pre-selection, causing him to offer a signed apology to fellow Monash councillor Kathy Magee over a 2002 exchange.
9. To his credit Geoff Lake said he did not support brothels but the council did not have a "compelling planning ground" to oppose the development at the tribunal.
10. He and the then Liberal for Health Minister, David Davis clashed about extending state-wide smoking bans to cover outdoor dining areas. Geoff Lake, who wanted the then Liberal State Government to create a state-wide ban against smoking in alfresco dining areas and said that Mr David Davis should be renamed the "minister for passive smoke" for failing to take action. He went onto say that the Health Minister had ample opportunity to ban smoking in outdoor dining areas since he became health minister in 2010.
There are sections of the community in the City of Monash that would rather see the back of Geoff Lake, but you can bet your bottom dollar that he will turn up so to speak if an issue was worth commenting Love him or leave him one could say when describing the Mayor, while others would say better the devil we know that the devil we don't. Why people dislike him and why other others support him is a matter of conjecture and for the people of Monash to decide. I am sure that they have not heard the last of him.

One small step for Melanie Stockman, one giant leap for the Liberals in the Senate →


Vienna, November 10th 2015. Companies are confronted with more and more critical stakeholders: many projects fail or struggle because the dynamics with stakeholders have been underestimated or ignored. Many company decisions are still being taken on the basis of internal analysis – without considering public acceptance and enforceability. As a consequence, stakeholders are being left with a choice between support, resignation or resistance. This results very often in demotivated employees, in protests by neighbours, in sceptical clients, in opponents on many levels - and in the end in the loss of the company's Licence to Operate. The conclusion: ambitious plans and projects can fail because of inadequate engagement of stakeholders.
These are the situations where John Aston and his team are very often being called upon. Their approach: Stakeholder Engagement. What sounds like pure dialogue is in fact much more: listening, analysis, assessment and establishment of solutions together with stakeholders. This approach has been working successfully in the past years for many company projects that appeared to be irresolvable in the beginning, in a variety of countries such as Romania, Yemen and others.
The Center for Responsible Management now brings this very original approach to Austria. The new cooperation bundles the know-how of both institutions: John Aston and his teams' knowledge in stakeholder engagement and risk management, and the Center's knowledge in communication, value management and business ethics.
A first step is a training program for companies. In the process, company Management and Teams are sensitized towards project risks. They receive know-how in Stakeholder Engagement in order to expand their perspective to a 360 degree understanding. They get to know tools and strategies in how to secure mutually beneficial goals in the long run, how to achieve and implement projects which ultimately save money that would otherwise have to be used for costly and bureaucratic processes or even lawsuits. The goal: To create value through stakeholder engagement that is beneficiary for both: the company as well as society.

Context. The convective envelopes of cool main-sequence stars harbour magnetic fields with a complex global and local structure. These fields affect the near-surface convection and the outer stellar atmospheres in many ways and are responsible for the observable magnetic activity of stars.
Aims. Our aim is to understand the local structure in unipolar regions with moderate average magnetic flux density. These correspond to plage regions covering a substantial fraction of the surface of the Sun (and likely also the surface of other Sun-like stars) during periods of high magnetic activity.
Methods. We analyse the results of 18 local-box magnetohydrodynamics simulations covering the upper layers of the convection zones and the photospheres of cool main-sequence stars of spectral types F to early M. The average vertical field in these simulations ranges from 20 to 500 G.
Results. We find a substantial variation of the properties of the surface magnetoconvection between main-sequence stars of different spectral types. As a consequence of a reduced efficiency of the convective collapse of flux tubes, M dwarfs lack bright magnetic structures in unipolar regions of moderate field strength. The spatial correlation between velocity and the magnetic field as well as the lifetime of magnetic structures and their sizes relative to the granules vary significantly along the model sequence of stellar types.

Vegas Game Odds & Betting Preview: Cowboys vs Colts
Dallas comes into this one off a thrilling 29-23 overtime win at home against the Eagles, covering as a slim 3-point favorite. That's now 5 straight wins and covers for the Cowboys. Dallas has went from a complete non-factor to holding a commanding 2-game lead with 3 to play.
Indianapolis enters off what may have been a season-saving win, as the Colts went on the road and beat Houston 24-21, snapping the Texans 9-game winning streak. Much like Dallas, Indy wasn't on anyone's radar after a 1-5 start, but a 6-1 stretch has them right in the thick of things for a playoff spot in the AFC.
Free NFL Pick & Betting Predictions: Colts -2.5
My early lean here would be to lay the short number with Indianapolis at home. I just think this is the right spot to play against the Cowboys, as I not only think they are getting way too much respect here on the road against a red-hot Colts team, but I also feel like this is a big time letdown spot for Dallas.

With that win over the Eagles the Cowboys all but locked up the NFC East. They not only have a 2-game lead over both the Eagles and Redskins, but they will also hold the tie breaker against both teams, meaning the only way Dallas doesn't win the division is if they lose out and either Washington or Philadelphia win their final 3 games. I think it's pretty safe to say the Redskins won't be going 3-0 over the final 3 weeks with all the injuries they have been dealt and the Eagles are likely to lose at the Rams on Sunday Night Football. I actually think there's a really good chance that the Cowboys lose this game and still end up waking up Monday as the NFC East winners.
There's zero doubt in my mind that Dallas hasn't played these scenarios out in their head, which is why I think it will be so difficult for them to show up here with the kind of mindset it will take to beat a team that's playing as well as the Colts.
It's also worth pointing out that Ezekiel Elliott is banged up and while he's expected to play, I got a good feeling the Cowboys are going to limit his touches after he had 40 last week against the Eagles. Not to mention the Dallas offensive line could be without stud right guard Zack Martin, who is dealing with a knee injury.
The Colts don't have the luxury of taking this game or any of their final 3 off. It's unlikely Indianapolis will be able to catch the Texans in the AFC South and one of the Wild Card spots is going to either the Chiefs or Chargers, which means there's only one spot up for grabs.
This has also historically been a great time to back the Colts, as they are 19-8 ATS in their last 27 home games off an upset win as a road dog. It's also worth pointing out that Dallas is just 2-4 on the road compared to 6-1 at home. Cowboys are also a mere 3-11 ATS under head coach Jason Garrett when they come into a game having covered 5 or 6 of their last 7. Give me the Colts -2.5!

Berkeley, CA, July 15, 1997—Tom Sawyer Software, the premier supplier of automated graph layout software, today announced the release of the Graph Editor Toolkit Version 2.4. The Graph Editor Toolkit is a display and editing component that allows Microsoft Windows developers to easily add a sophisticated diagramming layer into their applications. The Graph Editor Toolkit extends Tom Sawyer Software's renowned graph layout technology to Graphical User Interface (GUI) application programs that utilize the Microsoft Visual C++ development environment.
"The Graph Editor Toolkit revolutionizes the development of diagram-driven applications," said Michael Doorley, product manager of the Graph Editor Toolkit product family. "The level of extensibility within the Graph Editor Toolkit yields the power to develop robust applications with sophisticated graph layout ability efficiently."
Integrating the Graph Editor Toolkit into an application is straightforward. New and existing applications can use the extensive sample code provided to integrate their data model and user interface components with the Graph Editor Toolkit visualization libraries. The Graph Editor Toolkit meets requirements common across application domains, such as scrolling and zooming, double-buffered off-screen drawing for fast and flicker-free movement, handling of mouse events, support for pop-up menus and dialogs, and robust printing capabilities. Features such as toolbar and menu design, and application-specific drawing styles for nodes, edges, and labels are at the discretion of the application developer.
Industries such as object-oriented design, network management, CASE, and reengineering, can quickly develop diagram-centric applications producing intelligible, effective graphs for analysis and use. With a product unrivaled on the market, Tom Sawyer Software offers the only software that combines impressive layout technology with easy bundling capabilities. Using the Graph Editor Toolkit, the developer can reduce GUI application production cycles from years to weeks.
The Graph Editor Toolkit consists of a set of DLLs that are closely integrated with the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) Library through inheritance from the CView class and use of the document/view architecture. The Graph Editor Toolkit 2.4 supports MFC 4.x for Visual C++ 4.0, 4.2, and 5.0.
The Graph Editor Toolkit utilizes the graph model, drawing model and layout technology of the Graph Layout Toolkit, Tom Sawyer Software's flagship product. The Graph Layout Toolkit improves graph readability by providing a suite of layout algorithms each tailored to specific industries. With the Graph Layout Toolkit, developers can model application data as a graph and automatically produce high quality drawings. The Graph Editor Toolkit now bridges the gap between layout technology and GUI development. "There is no other graph editing product that has this level of layout automation or scalability," said Brendan Madden, president and CEO of Tom Sawyer Software.


Concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere surged at a record-breaking speed in 2016 to the highest level in 800,000 years, according to the World Meteorological Organization's Greenhouse Gas Bulletin. The abrupt changes in the atmosphere witnessed in the past 70 years are without precedent.
Globally averaged concentrations of CO2 reached 403.3 parts per million in 2016, up from 400.00 ppm in 2015 because of a combination of human activities and a strong El Niño event.
Concentrations of CO2 are now 145% of pre-industrial (before 1750) levels, according to the Greenhouse Gas Bulletin.
Rapidly increasing atmospheric levels of CO2 and other greenhouse gases have the potential to initiate unprecedented changes in climate systems, leading to "severe ecological and economic disruptions," said the report.
Since 1990, there has been a 40% increase in total radiative forcing -- the warming effect on our climate -- by all long-lived greenhouse gases, and a 2.5% increase from 2015 to 2016 alone, according to figures from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration quoted in the bulletin.
"Without rapid cuts in CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions, we will be heading for dangerous temperature increases by the end of this century, well above the target set by the Paris climate change agreement," said WMO Secretary-General Petteri Taalas. "Future generations will inherit a much more inhospitable planet, " he said.
"CO2 remains in the atmosphere for hundreds of years and in the oceans for even longer. The laws of physics mean that we face a much hotter, more extreme climate in the future. There is currently no magic wand to remove this CO2 from the atmosphere,"said Mr Taalas.
The WMO Greenhouse Gas Bulletin reports on atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases. Emissions represent what goes into the atmosphere. Concentrations represent what remains in the atmosphere after the complex system of interactions between the atmosphere, biosphere, cryosphere and the oceans.
About a quarter of the total emissions is taken up by the oceans and another quarter by the biosphere, reducing in this way the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.
"The numbers don't lie. We are still emitting far too much and this needs to be reversed. The last few years have seen enormous uptake of renewable energy, but we must now redouble our efforts to ensure these new low-carbon technologies are able to thrive. We have many of the solutions already to address this challenge. What we need now is global political will and a new sense of urgency," said Erik Solheim, head of UN Environment.
CO2 is by far the most important anthropogenic long-lived greenhouse gas. Globally averaged concentrations for CO2reached 403.3 parts per million in 2016, up from 400.00 ppm in 2015. This record annual increase of 3.3 ppm was partly due to the strong 2015/2016 El Niño, which triggered droughts in tropical regions and reduced the capacity of "sinks" like forests, vegetation and the oceans to absorb CO2. Concentrations of CO2 are now 145% of pre-industrial (before 1750) levels.
Over the last 800,000 years, pre-industrial atmospheric CO2content remained below 280 ppm, but it has now risen to the 2016 global average of 403.3 ppm.
From the most-recent high-resolution reconstructions from ice cores, it is possible to observe that changes in CO2 have never been as fast as in the past 150 years. The natural ice-age changes in CO2 have always preceded corresponding temperature changes. Geological records show that the current levels of CO2correspond to an "equilibrium" climate last observed in the mid-Pliocene (3-5 million years ago), a climate that was 2-3 °C warmer, where the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets melted and even some of the East Antarctic ice was lost, leading to sea levels that were 10-20 m higher than those today.

Construction update on our Oak Place Apartments- we completed framing!
The last update we posted was when the concrete foundation was poured and completed. That was just this past Thursday (1/4/18). Our concrete subs were able to complete that job the same day they started, which we were very happy with.
Due to some timely scheduling by the big boss Mike, we had our framing crew on site the very next morning bright and early to start all the framing, including the roof. Our framing sub has been working on our projects for many years now, and they work at a mind-boggling pace. They showed up with a big crew on a Friday, worked through the weekend, and we had an invoice for the completed job in hand by 9 am Monday morning.
Today we had our inspection, received our passing green tag, and our plumber and HVAC are already on site starting their next phase of the job.
Stay tuned next week, hopefully, we will windows and roofing completed! Fingers crossed that we can keep up the quick pace of construction for these apartments.

Barhein GP || March 28 || 17h10 (Local time)
Qualifying - Chinese GP report: Mercedes
By Olivier Ferret
Lewis Hamilton took pole position in qualifying for the Chinese Grand Prix this afternoon, with Nico Rosberg fourth after a challenging, wet qualifying session.
— Lewis took his third wet weather pole this season after qualifying 0.595 seconds ahead of his closest challenger, Daniel Ricciardo
— Nico Rosberg qualified fourth fastest but was unable to improve his lap time during his final run in Q3
— Both drivers ran wet tyres in Q1, then four sets of intermediate tyres for the rest of the qualifying session
— It is Lewis' 8th pole for the team and his 34th in Formula One, which is a new record for a British driver and fourth on the all-time list.
It was a tough session today, but I really enjoyed it. It's definitely the most satisfying feeling to come away with pole position in these wet conditions because the track is so slippery and you need to find the grip to put the lap together. The car felt great and the team have done a fantastic job this weekend. Our rivals look closer in the wet conditions, so we'll be hoping it's a dry race to take advantage of the position we're in. We go into the race with a little bit of an unknown because after I struggled in practice on Friday. We made a lot of changes to the car and I haven't yet had a chance to try them in the dry. It felt pretty good in the wet, though, so I'm hopeful that we can convert our pole position into a strong race performance tomorrow.
I had two main problems today. I wasn't totally happy with the feeling on the brakes, which resulted in me locking up and going off on my fast lap on the second to last lap. Then on my final timed lap, I was half a second quicker going into the last corner – but my time delta on my steering wheel display said that I was two tenths slower. So I just took a big risk and spun because I mistakenly thought I had nothing to lose anyway. However, fourth place is not a disaster. I was quick on Friday doing the race preparation so I am still confident that there is everything to play for tomorrow.
Another wet qualifying session which doesn't make life easy for anyone. We looked very strong on the full wet tyres at the beginning and the field seemed to close up as we moved onto the intermediate tyres. It was an exceptional performance from Lewis; he was in a league of his own today. Nico was very competitive and right there but unfortunately he wasn't able to get a clean lap on the final run and that's what cost him in these difficult conditions. It shows how competitive it is at this time, as we had the pace to put both cars on the front row.
Paddy Lowe
Qualifying is always tricky when we're running in wet conditions, which meant that it was even more fantastic to see Lewis deliver a great lap to qualify in pole. There's a slight disappointment on Nico's side because it looked like he had the pace. However, both of his laps in the final run of Q3 were compromised and he was unable to improve his lap time. However, overall it was a positive afternoon and a good job from the drivers and the team to get through qualifying safely and in good positions. Congratulations to Lewis on becoming the most successful British driver in terms of pole positions; it's a great achievement.

Germany manager Joachim Loew has increased expectations of his team by saying that they should be contenders for the World Cup title in Brazil. After a few years of struggles, Germany returned to form under the management of Jurgen Klinsmann at the 2006 World Cup. Since the replacement of Klinsmann with Joachim Loew, they have been regularly contesting in the latter stages of the major tournaments like the World Cup and European championships. However, Loew has come under increasing pressure for his failure to win a major title despite going close.
Loew is aware that this German team are in danger of being branded as nearly men, which is in stark contrast to the previous generations. Germany used to be one of the most efficient teams in the past and this led to numerous title successes. Armed with players like Bastian Schweinsteiger and Toni Kroos, who have been influential for Bayern Munich this season, Loew says that Germany should be ready for title success in the summer. The nation will be having its fingers crossed about qualification from the group, which is one of the toughest.
Portugal, the United States, and Ghana will be the opponents in the group stages for Germany. Loew, though, says that the team has enough experience and quality to be able to get through it.
"Of course we are ready for the World Cup. Since the draw we are constantly thinking about the World Cup in Brazil, our entire focus lies on the players and on our team and on the process and the organisation. I think you have to differentiate a little. Of course it applies to the situation overall, but also the expectation of the fans, everybody's ready to fight for the title we feel a great support in the country and an incredibly huge interest," said Loew.

Hi Fiona, I'm a great great grandson of John Forbes. Albert was my great grandfather, and his daughter Joan was my grandmother. I've known a lot about Albert my whole life, but I've only just started to find things out about John. Your name popped up in a bunch of my searches, so I thought I should say hello.
I'm trying to find out more about John's parents, but that hasn't been easy.
Hi, Fiona and Ben, I'm a Great Granddaughter of John Forbes. My father was also a John Forbes. He refused to work in the bakery and went to work in Canada for several years coming back to work in Middlesbrough in the 1930's and became a draughtsman for Teesside Bridge and Engineering company. I understood that my Great Grandfather started baking and selling bread from a handcart at a young age. My father had a brother , Vincent, who emigrated to Canada. He had a son and daughter, my cousins, but I have never met them and have no other relatives. I would be very interested to know more about the family.
My first job leaving collegel was in Forbes bakery in the office, it made Mothers Pride bread in my day (early 60's) they were a very old fashioned firm, when the man in charge (I can not remember his name) but if he came into the office there was not a word to be spoken while he was there, (for me this was difficult as I was on the tiny switchboard) I used to hope the phone would not ring while he was in. The Office Manager was a man named Clive (I thought he was horrible, very sarcastic I was glad to leave). I was a shorthand typist there.

Eric Cantona Signed Manchester United Photo: 1995-96 Premier League Winner
ICECMUP5
This superb photo shows Eric Cantona holding the Premier League trophy aloft before a pre-season friendly with Internazionale at Old Trafford in August 1996. It was signed by the man himself in a private signing session organised and conducted by Icons in Lisbon on April 27th, 2016. Having inspired the Red Devils to their third English title from his time at the club, "The King" was named captain for the start of the 1996-97 season. An immensely talented and mercurial player, Cantona was supremely successful under Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United and would go on to win four Premier League titles and two FA Cups.

If Sir Alex Ferguson was the architect of Manchester United's twenty-year dominance of English football, the cornerstone was Eric Cantona. Before the mercurial Frenchman arrived at Old Trafford, the league championship had eluded United for over a quarter of a century. But it was to sit in the Old Trafford trophy cabinet four of five seasons after Cantona's arrival. In fact, such was Cantona's impact on the Red Devils, that Fergie labelled him his greatest ever signing. A simple yet elegant and wholly fitting tribute to an outstanding player.

Q: Why is $(-1)^3=(-1)^{6/2}=((-1)^6)^{1/2}=1^{1/2}=1$ wrong? Why is this wrong?
$$(-1)^3=(-1)^{6/2}=((-1)^6)^{1/2}=1^{1/2}=1$$
 It seems logical but I know it's wrong.

A: Hint: $1$ has more than one possible square root, and you need to check them all when you do a calculation like you are doing.

A: The problem is that
$$(-1)^3\neq((-1)^6)^{1/2}$$
The well-known identity
$$a^{mn}=(a^m)^n$$
stands when $a>0$. It also stands when $m,n\in\Bbb Z$ (provided that $a\neq 0$), but it is false if $a<0$ and the exponents are not integer.

A: Hint:
$$\sqrt{9}=3 \land -3$$
People tend to forget these simple things...

A 'Beanpot' for Irish Dance? Please Stay Tuned
By Sean Smith
Sean Smith
SPECIAL TO THE BIR
Is it too soon to call it "The Greenpot"?
Irish dance – rather than hockey – was the focus of a recent local showcase for several dozen students representing Boston area colleges. The event, titled "We Got the Beat," took place April 2 at Harvard University, featuring Irish dance teams from Harvard, Boston College, Boston University, and Tufts University (a troupe from Massachusetts Institute for Technology also had been scheduled to participate but was unable to appear).
Their pieces showcased Irish dance steps and figures, or in some cases incorporated these traditional elements into modern choreography. To cap off the one-and-a-half hour production, performers from the four colleges also invited dancers in the audience to join them on stage for a grand finale.
This was the second such collaboration in as many years, and while it has a ways to go before attaining the status of Boston's storied intercollegiate hockey tournament, participants say the show could be a Beanpot-like tradition in the making. More importantly, they say, the fact that the event involved such a large gathering of students demonstrates the popularity of Irish dance – and underscores Boston's eminence as a locus for Irish culture.
"Boston has a high concentration of people of Irish heritage, and a lot of dancers as a result, so if any college town was going to have a big Irish dance presence, it makes sense to me that it would be here," says Claire Schenkel, choreographer for BU's Irish dance team Step About Boston. "I know many dancers in our group who grew up in Massachusetts ran into some old dance friends at 'We Got the Beat.' But I think it's wonderful that so many colleges have enough interest to get a group together for something unique."
Brittany Lewis, president of Boston College Irish Dance, says, "We were surprised at first to find that schools like Tufts or BU had Irish dancing teams, but it makes sense considering how many students are involved with competitive Irish dancing in their youth. College is a great place to enjoy Irish dancing without the competitive aspect, and it's nice to see so many students in the Boston area really having fun with it."
Alana O'Brien, who is co-president of Harvard Irish Dance, reiterates Lewis's observation. "I think everyone who ever was an Irish dancer continues to identify as one, even if they stopped after elementary or middle school. A lot of us find we miss the dancing, both for itself and for the social aspect which comes with it. So now we have this opportunity to rediscover Irish dance, and it's also a way to make new relationships, or even build on old ones – I found out that I knew one of the BU dancers because we had carpooled to lessons for five years when we were kids!"
As the students note, college Irish dance teams are about exploration rather than competition, and thus feel empowered to add creative twists, often going beyond traditional costumes and musical accompaniment, and incorporating the steps and figures into a larger choreographic context. At the April 2 show, for example, Tufts combined stylish modern apparel with the familiar competition wigs and used a recording of popular singer Beyonce for their performance, while Harvard concocted a short dramatic scene that served as a prologue for one of their dances. One of BC's signature pieces (although they didn't present it at Harvard) is a salute to Boston's sports teams – the dancers wear Red Sox, Celtics, Patriots, Bruins and BC t-shirts or replica jerseys and dance to the Dropkick Murphys' "Shipping Up to Boston."
"Some take a more traditional approach, some a more modern, but mostly we're all trying to figure out how to interweave both of those in our dancing," says Lewis. All have their own identities "and it's always fun to watch what fellow dancers have come up with."
Since most local collegiate Irish dance teams have substantial numbers – BC alone counts some three dozen members – students say there is every reason to believe they can survive and replace the drop-off from graduation or other attrition. If that's the case, Boston could see an annual reprise of "We Got the Beat."
"We were encouraged by the turn-out, so hopefully it'll happen next year," says O'Brien, who is graduating this spring. "Doing some other events together would be fun, too -- like maybe a college ceili. Organizing these kinds of things can be tough, because obviously everyone is focused on their studies and other things going on at their school. But it's very exciting to see how many college kids in Boston love Irish dancing."
