Q: Openlayers - Marker disappears when zooming I need that when the map is approaching / away, do not erase markers.
My script is this :
Js
 $(document).ready(function() {
   //init
   var map;
   var posMarcador; // Posicion del marcador

   var options = {
     restrictedExtent: extent,
     controls: [
       new OpenLayers.Control.Navigation(),
       new OpenLayers.Control.PanZoomBar(),
       new OpenLayers.Control.Attribution()
     ]
   };

   var position = new OpenLayers.LonLat(lon, lat).transform( fromProjection, toProjection);
   map = new OpenLayers.Map( 'map', options);
   layerBase = new OpenLayers.Layer.OSM();
   map.addLayer(layerBase);
   map.setCenter(extent.getCenterLonLat(), zoom);

   map.isValidZoomLevel = function(zoomLevel) {
     return ( (zoomLevel != null) &&
              (zoomLevel >= 11) && // set min level here, could read from property
              (zoomLevel < 17) );
   }

   var iconImage = //url image

   /**
    * Marcador
    * @type {OpenLayers.Layer.Markers}
    */
   var layerMarkers = new OpenLayers.Layer.Markers( "Markers" );
   map.addLayer(layerMarkers);

   map.events.register("click", map, function(e) {
     layerMarkers.clearMarkers();
     var position = map.getLonLatFromViewPortPx(e.xy);
     posMarcador = new OpenLayers.LonLat(position.lon, position.lat);
     var size = new OpenLayers.Size(50,50);
     var offset = new OpenLayers.Pixel(-(size.w/2), -size.h);
     var icon = new OpenLayers.Icon(iconImage(tipoIcono), size, offset);
     layerMarkers.addMarker(new OpenLayers.Marker(posMarcador, icon));
     posMarcador =   posMarcador.transform(toProjection  , fromProjection );
     $('input[name="geopunto.latitud"]').val(posMarcador.lat);
     $('input[name="geopunto.longitud"]').val(posMarcador.lon);
  });
});

My view is :

When I put a static point (unregister click event), It works correctly. I hope you can help.

A: You are saving the position of your new marker in posMarcador. This you should reuse after you've zoomed the map. I made a seperate function for reuse for placing the marker, in your case it could be something like:
function addNewMarker(pos) {
    posMarcador = pos;     // save pos

    var size = new OpenLayers.Size(50,50);
    var offset = new OpenLayers.Pixel(-(size.w/2), -size.h);
    var icon = new OpenLayers.Icon(iconImage(tipoIcono), size, offset);

    layerMarkers.addMarker(new OpenLayers.Marker(posMarcador, icon));

    var np = pos.transform(map.getProjectionObject(), new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326"));
    $('input[name="geopunto.latitud"]').val(np.lon.toFixed(6));
    $('input[name="geopunto.longitud"]').val(np.lat.toFixed(6));
}

When you click a marker is placed with:
map.events.register('click', map, function(ev) {
    layerMarkers.clearMarkers();
    var position = map.getLonLatFromViewPortPx(ev.xy);
    addNewMarker(position);
});

Now bind a function to the zoomend event of map.
map.events.register('zoomend', map, function(ev){
    if (posMarcador != undefined) {
        var np = new OpenLayers.LonLat(posMarcador.lon, posMarcador.lat).transform(
            new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326"),  // from WGS 1984
            map.getProjectionObject()  // Spherical Mercator
        );
        addNewMarker(np);
    }
});

For the sake of this example I've used the appropiate projections like new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326") in stead of the variables toProjection and fromProjection. Maybe this helps.

A five-paneled mural by contemporary artists that interpreted the history and heritage of Bahay Nakpil will be auctioned off during Leònexchange's online auction on Jan. 18 and 19, to raise funds for repairs of the lifestyle heritage museum in Quiapo, Manila.
The museum is famous for having been the residence of Gregoria de Jesus, widow of Philippine revolutionary leader Andres Bonifacio, until her death in 1943. She later married Julio Nakpil, a musician and another revolutionary, and they stayed in the Quiapo house that was really owned by Nakpil's sister Petrona and her husband, Dr. Ariston Bautista. Hence the house is officially known as Bahay Nakpil-Bautista.
Petrona was a jeweler, and she transformed a section of the Quiapo structure into the Joyeria Nakpil, which became famous before the war.
In 2017, in time for the 50th anniversary of the Philippine School of Interior Design (PSID), Mary Ann Bulanadi, curator of Bahay Nakpil and a design faculty of PSID and the University of Santo Tomas, recreated Joyeria Nakpil for the school's golden anniversary exhibit at Bonifacio Global City in Taguig.
To provide a contemporary counterpoint to the recreated space, Bulanadi commissioned for free five artists (the number obviously to represent a decade each of the 50-year-old PSID) to interpret the Bahay Nakpil based on their own individual idioms: Alfred Galvez, Julius Legaspi, Derrick Macuray, Abe Orobia and Jared Yokte.
The pentaptych, titled "Ang Limang Tanawan ng Bahay Nakpil (Five Vistas of the Nakpil House)," now hangs in the Quiapo museum.
León Gallery, which runs Leonexchange, said the 10th edition of the online market would delight both seasoned collectors and neophyte art collectors looking to get their feet wet in the exciting world of auctions.
Particularly notable is naif surrealist Joan Miro's "Picasso y el Reventos," which is signed.
There is a wide array of works from Philippine masters. With a click of a button (and a little patience), superb paintings such as Federico Aguilar Alcuaz's "Manila Bay Series" (painted in 1988) and "Portrait of a Lady," Cesar Buenaventura's "Vendors" (signed and dated 1980), Romeo Tabuena's "Barrio Scene," Juvenal Sanso's "Landscape," and three "Untitled" Mauro Malang Santos paintings from the early 1980s could be yours.

The hidden gold beneath the BMW/Mercedes shared mobility venture
Tags: Autonomous Drive Joint Venture BMW Daimler Industry Spotlight
Peter Els
Responding to the technology shift taking place in the auto industry, two traditionally fierce competitors, the BMW Group and Daimler AG, recently announced they would invest more than €1 billion ($1.13 billion) to form a joint venture offering customers a single source for sustainable urban mobility service solutions.
The significance of the tie-up can be better understood in light of Silicon Valley startup Ridecell's findings that such business models could realize a market cap of $9 trillion by 2030 – that's six times the estimated market cap of all automotive companies today, according to Mark Thomas, Ridecell's vice president of marketing and alliances.
Driven by the potential of the market, interest in mobility services is heating up, as demonstrated in the chart below showing the number of companies talking about mobility services in their earnings calls.
Image Source: CB Insights
By signing the agreement to merge their mobility services business units, the two luxury brands have managed to nimbly outflank their competition. The equally-owned joint venture model plans to combine and strategically expand the companies' existing on-demand mobility offerings in the following five areas:
1) Multimodal and on-demand mobility with moovel and ReachNow
2) Car Sharing with Car2Go and DriveNow
3) Ride-Hailing with mytaxi
4) Parking with ParkNow and Parkmobile Group/Parkmobile LLC
5) Charging with ChargeNow and Digital Charging Solutions
While this places the companies in a very strong position to explore and even dominate the mobility services sector, there is an asset that in the long term may prove even more valuable: data.
Forget oil, future vehicles will run on data
For more than a century, the automobile industry has been a hotbed of innovation. Now, in its second century, the pace of innovation is accelerating.
In a recent interview with McKinsey and Company, Ford's Hau Thai-Tang had this to say: "This industry has seen more changes in the past decade than perhaps in the prior hundred years. That's due to a combination of things. One is ubiquitous connectivity and the internet, which changed how people network, procure, consume, and enjoy goods and services. Sharing and contextual ownership are important changes as well."
IHS Automotive forecasts that there will be 152 million actively connected cars on global roads by 2020. The combination of new car features and aftermarket devices could mean nearly two billion connected cars on the world's roadways by 2025.
Conservative estimates from IHS Automotive state the average car could produce up to 30 terabytes of data each day. Hidden in this data are valuable clues regarding the performance and health of the vehicle, as well as information about the driver and passengers. For instance how, when and where the vehicle is driven; the driver's driving style and in-vehicle preferences; passengers' infotainment choices, and much, much more.
So what is the relevance of the fusion of the two companies' mobility services business units to this data?
Crowd-sourced vehicle training
For one, teaching vehicles to drive themselves in a failsafe manner continues to challenge the best minds across the automotive and technology landscape. And as with humans, machines also 'learn' from experience – for any given situation, both humans and machines must first absorb experiences (data), followed by applying a set of rules (algorithms) that facilitate problem solving. When outcomes are either positive or negative, both humans and machines learn from the exercise.
Image Source: Wards Auto/Cloudera
As illustrated, the autonomous driving teaching process begins on the left side of the diagram, with collecting large volumes of real-world driving data.
To effectively 'train' self-driving vehicles requires millions of sets of ordered data, or 'points', that are both time consuming and expensive to gather.
By virtue of the fact that the merger of both companies' fleets significantly increases the number of vehicles generating data means that, when developing self-driving vehicles, both companies have access to significantly larger libraries of information than they would have had. This can improve functional performance and cut development time and costs.
The logical next step would be to join forces on automated driving, and in late February 2019 the two companies signed a Memorandum of Understanding to jointly develop the technology, stating they would initially focus on advancing the development of next-generation technologies for driver assistance systems, automated driving on highways and parking features (up to SAE Level 4).
And data collection from this extended fleet of vehicles will not only come in handy when developing self-driving technologies: As vehicles transform from 'driver experience- to user experience-centric,' information about driver and passenger preferences and behavior will unlock untold value for manufacturers and service providers.
The money's in the data
Automakers have long understood how providing good experiences helps build affinity, trust and loyalty with their customers. Now through the use of data, automotive companies have an opportunity to monetize information through value added connected services.
Though GPS functionality has supported navigation systems for years, smarter applications of the data harvested is adding significant value in the form of real-time traffic updates and road safety alerts.
Uses for vehicle health and operational functionality data are also spreading as vehicle manufacturers continue to develop app-based tools to monitor key maintenance statistics. And while the use of advanced biometric data is still in its infancy, new sensors in the cockpit can allow vehicles to monitor key attributes of their occupants, including stress levels, heart rhythms, alcohol consumption, and fatigue.
However, monetizing this tremendous increase in operational and behavioral data is easier said than done – and OEMs have largely been lagging behind market disruptors entering this space. There is also good reason to wonder whether a critical mass of consumers see the increase in vehicle connectivity as a good thing.
Recent study results suggest that while 79 percent of consumers in China believe increased connectivity will be beneficial, only 35 percent of German consumers feel the same.
One of the first decisions for companies aiming to monetize vehicle data is where to play in the connected vehicle value chain. Potential roles exist for companies to act as:
Generators – making end products capable of capturing data
Transmitters – safely delivering the data to a central repository
Manipulators – aggregating data from different sources into a usable format
Developers – designing end-user offerings that leverage the data
Providers – marketing the service offerings to both B2C and B2B networks
Not every company is well-placed to succeed in each part of this value chain. For new entrants in particular, it can be difficult to create value further down the chain without access to the data being generated further upstream. Herein lies one of the central issues that is currently preventing the vehicle data monetization ecosystem from developing to its full potential, and one which the merger could solve. By owning and operating these diverse mobility services business units at scale, the partners will not only own the data but also be able to find the best ways to integrate this into their unfolding business models.
In terms of external revenue opportunities, OEMs and other industry players are exploring a wide variety of data-based products and service offerings, including user-based insurance, mobile commerce, mobility-as-a-service (MaaS), behavioral and geo-based advertising, infotainment, and personal health monitoring.
Leveraging the experience and data gained from the extended fleet will speed up the understanding and implementation of services and solutions that can be monetized while still enhancing the user experience. The companies will have the advantage that all vehicles are under their control making tweaks to immature technologies and models a lot simpler.
Notwithstanding the obvious advantages that the partnership brings, with regard to data driven features and services, there are still areas that remain grey and shrouded in uncertainty:
Who owns the data and who gets to use it? The most interesting data sets are often the ones that are shared across connected ecosystems that include consumers, OEMs, and service providers. However, recent study data suggests that consumers are not fully comfortable with any one type of company managing their connected data
How can data be protected? Consumers may be more willing to share data for services and features that have a perceived benefit. Tech companies have been taking advantage of this for some time, so OEMs may have much to learn from them. However, any company will likely quickly lose customers' trust if the data they share is compromised
Are consumers willing to pay for connected data services? Consumers have come to expect basic services and free apps, so how can they be motivated to pay? Probably, the full spectrum of services will include both free and paid services.
In an age of connectivity it is no longer sufficient to deliver the passenger to his or her destination; the passenger's other needs must also be met. Thus, while the BMW/Mercedes venture might not have all the answers, it certainly gives the two companies a sound foundation from which to explore data collection and monetization to satisfy both the consumer's needs as well as speed up the refinement of the business model.

Barbie debuts doll in likeness of British COVID-19 vaccine developer
British coronavirus vaccine developer Sarah Gilbert has many science accolades to her credit but now shares an honor with Beyonce, Marilyn Monroe and Eleanor Roosevelt: a Barbie doll in her likeness.
Gilbert, a 59-year-old professor at Oxford University and co-developer of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine, is one of six women in the COVID-19 fight who have new Barbies modeled after them.
Toy maker Mattel Inc (MAT.O) is recognizing them with a line of Barbie "role model" dolls.
Gilbert's Barbie shares her long auburn hair and oversized black glasses, and she wears a sensible navy blue pantsuit and white blouse.
"It's a very strange concept having a Barbie doll created in my likeness," Gilbert said in an interview for Mattel.
"I hope it will be part of making it more normal for girls to think about careers in science."
Among the honorees are emergency room nurse Amy O'Sullivan who treated the first COVID-19 patient at the Wycoff Hospital in Brooklyn, New York, and Audrey Cruz, frontline doctor in Las Vegas who fought discrimination, according to Mattel.
Other dolls include Chika Stacy Oriuwa, a Canadian psychiatry resident at the University of Toronto who battled systemic racism in healthcare, and Brazilian biomedical researcher Jaqueline Goes de Jesus, who led sequencing of the genome of a COVID-19 variant in Brazil, the company said.
Lastly a doll honors Kirby White, an Australian doctor who pioneered a surgical gown that can be washed and reused by frontline workers during the pandemic.
Gilbert chose nonprofit organization WISE (Women in Science & Engineering), dedicated to inspiring girls to consider a career in STEM, to receive a financial donation from the toy maker. -- Reuters

Sacramento spokes-man
Sacramento cyclist helps bike community organize against thieves
By Raheem F. Hosseini
Thomas Blough, bike rescuer.
Photo By jerome love
Thomas Blough is at the beginning of a long journey he's navigating on two wheels.
Frustrated by the fragmented nature of Sacramento's cycling culture and the inability of local cops to stop bicycle bandits, the Midtown transplant has created Walk the Wheel (http://walk-the-wheel.blogspot.com), a hub for all things cycling related.
Blough, a self-described lover of the pedaled wheel (he says his favorite music is by "anyone who writes cool songs about cycles" and his favorite book is The Bicycle Wheel by Jobst Brandt) isn't the area's first cycling champion to put his efforts into a website. But the 29-year-old father, who spends his Thursdays as a volunteer mechanic at the Sacramento Bicycle Kitchen, may be one of Sactown's most committed spokes-men.
"I like bicycles," he said simply.
Blough's Web page is similarly modest, with its oatmeal background and orange and green text. It already has a number of active links running, but still has its training wheels on.
Ultimately, Blough's goal is to have others update and moderate his Web page to include a calendar of cycling events, helpful links, cycling news and, especially, stolen-bicycle resources.
The gray matter is there, but there's still much to do, like reaching out to local bike shops and cycling clubs, talking with police about a bicycle LoJack system, and getting under-the-radar organizations like the Bicycle Film Festival, some much-needed wheelie love.
It's an uphill ride for a Web page with only 41 Facebook "likes," especially one geared to such a particular audience.
Sacramento's cycling community is an eclectic, niche-oriented one, agreed Walt Seifert, executive director of Sacramento Area Bicycle Advocates. His group focuses on making cycling a person's main mode of transport, but there are clubs for recreational cyclists, BMX riders, mountain-bike riders, bicycle messengers and social riders, like the Tweed Riders, a group of cyclists that gets dressed up to pedal.
Bringing this community together may be daunting to some, but Blough is a guy who dreams of doing the two-day Seattle-to-Portland ride on a unicycle. "It's a fun method of travel. It's a little absurd—and absurd things are good."
Except when they're bad.
"Stealing someone's bicycle is pretty absurd to me," he said.
That's why he has focused most of his time fleshing out his website's stolen-bicycle resources tab, which offers links to filing online police reports and a Google map of two-wheel larcenies.
"There's really not a lot that's done for stolen bicycles in this town," Blough said.
The Sacramento Police Department recorded more than 409 stolen-bicycle reports last year, following a five-year high of 616 in 2008, according to spokesman Sgt. Norm Leong.
"I don't have recovery numbers, but unless you have a serial number, we won't be able to recover it unless your bike is so unique that we can show it to be yours," Leong said in an e-mail. "Lock your bike, write serial numbers down … look for your stolen bike online (Craiglist) if stolen. We don't have resources to really investigate bike thefts, especially since most cases don't have investigative leads."
Seifert is philosophical about the problem. "It's a problem everywhere. I think everyone that has had a bike has had one stolen."
It can especially be a problem on college campuses. At Sacramento State, the campus police department log for the four-day period between August 29 and September 3 included four stolen bicycle reports. One of the reports was taken the night of September 1 outside of Draper Hall, where the reporting party discovered the purple Schwinn he borrowed from his roommate went missing. Seifert said the UC Davis requires its students to register their bicycles, which has resulted in a slightly higher rate of recovery.
Registration is Blough's advice, too, and he offers the phone number where people can register their bicycles on his Web page.
Having a solid lock and available bicycle racks or parking is also important, according to Seifert. His group has helped with the latter, offering valet bike parking for free during Friday night Concerts in the Park at Cesar Chavez Plaza. SABA's portable bicycle trailer—think of it as a hat check for your wheels—will also be available at the Crocker Art Museum's grand reopening celebration on October 10.

Monday Morning Manager: Avila the Hero and also under the scope; Tigers playoff experience starting to show
There are only two full weeks left in the season, so how come MMM feels like he's just getting started?
By GregEno Sep 15, 2014, 8:48am EDT
Share All sharing options for: Monday Morning Manager: Avila the Hero and also under the scope; Tigers playoff experience starting to show
Duane Burleson
Monday Morning Manager is a series that Greg Eno has been writing since 2009 on his personal blogs. It's a look back at the previous Tigers week and a look ahead at the current week. This season, he brings the series, featuring his alter ego "MMM", to Bless You Boys, every Monday morning.
This week: at Min (Sept. 15-17; at KC (Sept. 19-21)
So, What Happened?
There's something about big league baseball when you flip that calendar from August to September, isn't there?
Just ask the Kansas City Royals.
MMM was struck by how many mental errors the Royals (and their manager) made in losing two of three to the Tigers last week in Detroit.
Gone was the slick fielding, "don't beat yourself" Royals team. In its place was a bumbling group that couldn't get out of its own way.
MMM thinks that the Royals, a team that hasn't been in the postseason since 1985 and that hasn't played any meaningful games in September for about that long, is feeling the pressure of a playoff race — and they're not responding all that well.
The Tigers were a "Big Game" James Shields gem away from going undefeated for the week, while the Royals were losing five of seven games, including three of four to the last place Boston Red Sox at home.
The Tigers' big name players have been showing up since the calendar flipped, and it's that star power that MMM thinks the Royals simply can't match over 162 games.
After the Royals left town, the Cleveland Indians showed up and whatever slim playoff hopes the Tribe had were obliterated by a three-game sweep at the hands of the Tigers over the weekend.
The Tigers stunned the Indians with two late-inning rallies on Saturday and Sunday, both times victimizing reliever Brian Shaw, who was on a roll when the Indians arrived in Detroit.
The Tigers often used the power of the home run to overcome any deficits and capture games that appeared lost or at the very least, hanging in the balance.
The 5-1 week propelled the Tigers into first place by 1.5 games over the Royals, who are likely to be tagged with another loss when they complete their suspended game against Cleveland on Thursday. The Royals are trailing 4-2 with KC getting one more at-bat to tie or win the game.
As most of you know, there are bigger Alex Avila fans out there than MMM. Much bigger.
But MMM is fair if nothing else, so Avila gets Hero status because of a dramatic homer, a Spiderman-like play against the backstop screen and the continuation of playing despite feeling like a human pin cushion.
Avila, who was lifted from Sunday's contest due to light-headedness and who is listed as day-to-day, plays with guts if nothing else.
Added to those guts was a huge two-run homer on Saturday night.
Avila's blast in the eighth inning turned a 4-3 deficit into a 5-4 lead, which the Tigers eventually held onto.
Avila victimized Shaw with two outs, and the win kept the Tigers in first place by a half-game at the time, as the Royals were winning their only game of the Red Sox series on the same evening.
Honorable mentions: J.D. Martinez, who continued to terrorize Indians pitching and who hit three dingers last week; Ian Kinsler, whose stellar defense and clutch hitting (two-run homer Sunday that put the Tigers ahead to stay in the seventh inning) were huge; rookie lefty Kyle Lobstein, who continues to pitch these big games in September like he has ice in his veins; and Justin Verlander, who responded to MMM's Microscope challenge last week with two fine starts.
Goat of the Week
MMM finds it almost impossible to designate a Goat in a 5-1 week that put the Tigers back into first place.
So guess what? There is no Goat.
Anything Goat-like would be nitpicking.
Mark this down; MMM doesn't go Goat-less very often!
It's not often that a weekly Hero is also placed UtM, but in Alex Avila's case, it's more of a physical thing.
As you all know, Avila takes a lot of abuse behind the plate, what with all the foul tips and such.
That he was removed from Sunday's game due to light-headedness is cause for concern.
For all of Avila's faults, which MMM is never hesitant to point out, he is the starting catcher for a reason and he does seem to have a flair for the dramatic.
The Tigers certainly need a healthy, non-woozy Avila if they are to make some noise in the playoffs—mainly because you simply cannot thrust any big league backup catcher into October and think that you won't miss a beat.
So MMM, like the entire Tigers fan base, will be keeping a close eye on Avila's health this week. Indicators are that Avila will miss Monday's game at Minnesota, at least.
Upcoming: Twins, Royals
In football they call them "trap games."
They are contests against weaker opponents that occur just prior to higher profile games.
The "trap" is that the favored team could be looking past the inferior team in advance of the tussle against the next, better opponent.
Will the Twins spring a trap on the Tigers in Minnesota this week before Detroit's showdown series in Kansas City this weekend?
MMM doesn't get that feeling, FWIW.
The Tigers' veteran moxie seems to be kicking in, and everyone is getting into the act these days. Not surprisingly, the key contributions have come from veteran stars who have been down the pennant race path before.
Witness Torii Hunter's diving grab of a fly ball against Cleveland in the eighth inning on Saturday night that saved two runs and kept the score 4-3, Indians. That catch got overlooked after Avila's home run, but it was a huge play—made by a veteran of the pennant chase wars.
So MMM doesn't expect a letdown against the Twinkies in advance of the series in KC.
Tigers probables vs. Twins: Max Scherzer, Rick Porcello, David Price.
The Royals, who are being partially vexed by manager Ned Yost and his strange moves, have another shot at the Tigers at Kauffman Stadium Friday-Sunday.
MMM thinks that the Royals' brand of baseball—small ball with a constant need to manufacture runs with speed and singles—is very difficult to sustain over 162 games.
The Royals lack a slugger—that guy who strikes fear into the opposition, especially late in games (David Ortiz, anyone?). Their lineup is severely short on home run power. And let's face it—big home runs often define playoff series.
Again, Ortiz, anyone?
MMM thinks that the Royals may have half a foot in the playoff grave by the time the Tigers arrive on Thursday night. Just a hunch.
Tigers probables vs. Royals: Lobstein, Verlander, Scherzer.
That's all for this week's MMM. See you next week!

Fifteen survivors of the 35W Bridge collapse share what they experienced as their cars fell beside or into the Mississippi River. This film shows how everyone is worth saving, It shows how ordinary citizens and first responders ran and swam to rescue people, how they all worked together. The survivors also share their experiences with the media. Some of their experiences were rude, some were humorous, some of their stories went all over the world. One survivor noticed that a picture of his car showed up in Russia. Another survivor had a newspaper person from London call her in the middle of the night to hear about her story. It's about friendships, how a group of survivors met regularly to help one another heal. This is an amazing story of how a tragedy actually shows how much we have in common with others and how important it is to value your neighbor. The musical background for the movie trailer is by Kate Brown.

The first three months of a panda bear's life
Adorable panda. The first three months of a panda bear's life
A baby panda's growing process is interesting but very difficult, because they are extremely fragile and can easily get sick and die. At breeding centers, 90% of baby pandas can survive nowadays, compared to no more than 30% in the 1960s. The Giant Panda is an endangered species. According to the latest report, China has 239 giant pandas in captivity (128 of them in Wolong and 67 in Chengdu), and another 27 pandas living outside the country.
April to May is the breeding season. Female and male pandas will have their rare moments together. After May, they drift apart. When the female one is 4-5 months pregnant, she will be anxious to find a hollow tree or cave as the delivery room. When the cub is born, she will raise her baby by herself.

For the six months leading to March 31, 2012, The New York Times saw a strong growth in both weekday and Sunday circulation figures, according to a new Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC) report. And it seems these gains are largely attributable to its popular digital subscription packages which were rolled out in March last year.
As we reported earlier this year, The New York Times has seen a pretty impressive uptake of its paid digital offering, racking up almost half-a-million paid digital subscribers in the year since it went behind a paywall.
The latest figures include both print and digital, seeing an average circulation of 1,586,757 for Monday–Friday, and 2,003,247 for Sundays, representing a 73% weekday gain over the same period last year, whilst Sunday has seen a 50% rise.
To bring some digital context into this, for the ABC reporting period the total average digital circulation for weekdays was 807,026, and for Sundays it was 737,408. This includes all "paid and verifiable digital subscription copies", as well as paid subscriptions to replica editions and e-readers including the Kindle and Nook. It's also worth noting here that The Times' digital circulation constitutes roughly half of its overall circulation.
It also seems as though the inclusion of comprehensive digital access with every print subscription to The Times is helping to drive growth and reader retention, with Sunday home delivery circulation continuing to grow, rising by around 2% in the latest reporting period.
Back in March we reported that The New York Times was cutting back on the free articles it makes available, and starting last month the NYTimes.com paywall only gave access to ten free articles a month, down from twenty. It's fair to say that it's doing a pretty good job of building a sustainable publishing model that straddles print and digital, as it continues to report impressive numbers. Indeed, it's becoming somewhat of a poster child for what a modern day digital publisher should look like.


Kokowai (red ochre), obtained from clays rich in iron and aluminium silicates, was highly prized by Maori; depending on chemical composition, reds, oranges, yellows and browns were produced. Onekaka and Parapara in Golden Bay were important resource areas. The clays were dried and ground, then mixed with oil for various purposes.
He remarked on fish oil's "disagreeable smell".
European settlers did not approve. William Wakefield criticised Admiralty Bay Maori in 1839: "… Their faces were painted like an European buffoon, and their bodies thickly anointed with whale oil and ochre …".4 Barnicoat, near Port Gore in 1843, concurred. "Three women were perfectly red with their red wash. On our expressing disapprobation of this kind of cosmetic however, they rubbed it off their faces with their mats".5 And Sarah Stephens wrote of Motueka Maori: "…they are fond of oiling themselves when they can get it – from the head to the foot – and with it they put a red dye – I believe it is to keep off the sandflies – but I do not know if it answers the purpose …"; and said being enclosed in a small room with ten or twelve oiled visitors was quite unpleasant.6 Fish, shark, dolphin and whale oil are all recorded. Dieffenbach, in Queen Charlotte Sound in 1839, described a more fragrant balm made from pitoko seeds.
The use of kokowai as personal adornment died out soon after European settlement, perhaps because of Pakeha attitudes.
As well as ochre Maori created strong black dyestuffs from muds and colouring agents derived from tree bark and other resources.

If you've been reading my streaming TV posts, you know that my favorite set-top streaming receiver is Roku. Now they've given me (and you) another reason to love Roku.
Roku 3 hits the streets this week as the new high-end representative to the Roku product line. They've changed the look of the palm-size box a little, giving it rounded sides. But it goes far beyond appearance changes in both hardware and user interface.
New remote with headphone jack – Headphone jack? Yes, now you can enjoy your favorite streaming programs in bed, without disturbing your partner.
Supports new video file formats – H264 and MKV may not mean much to you, and they don't have to. Suffice it to say, the Roku 3 can play significantly upgraded video standards.
Upgraded audio – supports 7.1 channel surround sound.
Retained hardware features from the previous top-of-the-line 2XS include: the 10/100 base-T ethernet connection for wired Internet performance, a USB port, and Bluetooth. Roke 3 has done away with the A/V connections, relying totally on HDMI for connection to your HD TV.
Your biggest pleasure will come when you fire up the new Roku 3. The good news for Roku has always been its plethora of TV and movie content. But when you've got that much stuff (over 750 channels and growing all the time), how do you find what you want?
That's gotten a whole lot easier, thanks to the new user interface (UI), which shows you 9 channels at a time on a single screen. Clicking an advance arrow takes you to a new page of content. You can easily tell a channel you've already added by the check mark in the corner of the channel. A two-panel design makes it easier to browse genres, with a list of genre names on the left and the channel content grid on the right.
The Roku 3 is a significant upgrade in what I already consider to be the top streaming set-top box out there. I'm sure there is one in my future.


What are you doing with your wedding dress?
I simply dont know what to do about my wedding dress. I could give it to charity in which case I will get it cleaned but this will cost about £160.
If I keep it then I will want it cleaned and boxed professionally about £180 - £200.
If I sell it then it will be sold "dirty" as seen.
At the moment having only been married a few weeks, the decision is far too hard for me to make and I simply cannot bear to get rid of prominent pieces from my wedding.
However if I leave the decision too long then it will be harder to get the stains out such as the grass stain on the hem, the dust stains and the strawberry jus' stain so I need to make a decision ASAP.
What are you all doing with your beautiful dresses???
Also your shoes - again are you going to get them dyed, or just have them cleaned etc,... Will you keep them, sell them or give them to charity?????
I would get it cleaned now and then make the descision when you are ready. It doesn't make sense to me to get it cleaned to give it away to charity but not get it cleaned if you are going to sell it. I am sure it would be more sellable if it was in the best condition it could be.
I'm having a photo shoot to trash the dress cos I got it really dirty so a shoot in the sea a waterfall or in the sand won't matter then after that I'm going to have it shortened into a tea dress for our first anniversary ... I got married this April just gone and at the moment my dress is still hanging in the spare bed room ..
I love the idea of having the dress shorted into a Tea-dress, but, its very decorated on the bodice and Im not sure if it will look nice as a Tea-dress.
I was thinking if I gave it to charity I would want them to make as much money on it as possible and by not providing it cleaned they wont make the money on the dress which they could.
Having it cleaned myself to re-sale wouldnt be worth it as it would cost £180 to clean and I would only get about £300 for it so I would only make £100 out of it and, it would be hard I think for me to sell as I am only 4ft 11.5inch and so not many brides my height around as it was shortened quite a bit.
Having thought about all your advice and speaking with my friend I think Ill get it dry cleaned and boxed for myself, for my own memories.
Thanks for your ideas and thoughts, you all really did help.
also girlies ask your local dry cleaners about the alterations many dry cleaners have a professional needle person and they charge half the price of a dress maker ..
Not that I'm married yet.
But mine will be cleaned and professionally boxed!
I would NEVER be able to get rid of it EVER!
My dress is a full tulle ballgown, so it will be a BIG box, and I couldn't even imagine giving it away or selling it.
Why don't you get it cleaned, then wait a while until your ready to decide.
I always joke with OH that Im going to do the ironing in mine!
I am currently job hunting and as I sit on my laptop it lies behind the sofa behind me, if it wasn't lace up at the back I would sit in it all day just to be able to wear it again!
I'm organising a charity Bridal Ball to wear mine again!
It is still hanging up in the spare room, not even cleaned (since May). I'm not going to get it cleaned either as it's not that dirty.
We got married in New York and I managed to spill black coffee all over my dress at the end of the evening. I had to wear it again at our UK reception and I've read many times about people putting their dresses in the bath with a bit of Daz. Well I tried it crossed my fingers and it came up perfectly. I have now done this twice as it needed a clean after our reception as well.
My Bridesmaid had a mark on her dress from the wedding day, so took it to the dry cleaners and it came back worse. She gave it to her Nan who used the Daz trick and it came out perfectly.
Personally I don't want to spend the money to have my dress boxed up and never to be seen again. It costs the same to have it shortened (if not less) and I will get to wear it again and again.

File this under "anything is possible": Jadav "Molai" Payeng lives in the forest in the northern Indian province of Assam. The place where he lives shares his nickname - it's called 'Molai Kathoni', or 'Molai's Woods'. And that's because Payeng planted all the trees there himself.
One day in 1979, a 16-year-old Payeng found a number of snakes that had been washed ashore on a sandbar due to flooding. By the time he came across them, all the animals were dead because of extreme heat and no tree cover. He says he "sat down and wept over their lifeless forms. It was carnage". When he asked the forest department for help with planting trees, they told him nothing would grow on the sandbar. He decided to prove them wrong.
He left behind his original home and his education and started living on the sandbar itself, dedicating his life to growing first bamboo and then trees. He has lived on the land ever since, fostering the natural environment and even transporting red ants from his village to encourage better soil quality for growing trees. Payeng says he "was stung many times" during transport.
The authorities only discovered what Payeng had accomplished in 2008, when a group of 100 wild elephants went on a marauding spree and wound up in Molai Kathoni, where they destroyed Payeng's home. He rebuilt it, and refused calls to destroy the forest in order to better track the elephants.
Today, there are many species of flora and fauna living in the forest with Payeng, including some endangered species and at least five tigers. One government minister has proposed declaring the area a conservation reserve to protect the forest and its inhabitants.

Now this is a Teen Mom dream come true! Farrah Abraham — who recently parted from the MTV reality series that made her famous — has already moved on in her career in an epic way. Her best-selling novel, My Teenage Dream Ended — which discusses the tragic death of her daughter's father, Derek Underwood — will be developed into a movie.
Farrah first shared the exciting news with her Instagram followers in a story update on Wednesday, stating she would like actors and actresses to submit headshots, their locations, IMDB links, and social media bios for casting consideration. "I'm currently doing private castings and getting ready to make a memorable feature film," the adult entertainer exclusively told In Touch. "I look forward to have many fans who supported me through Teen Mom be part of the film."
For those who have yet to indulge in Farrah's must-read, the novel describes the tragedy where she lost her high school boyfriend, Derek, in a car accident while she was pregnant with her now nine-year-old daughter, Sophia, in December 2008. According to a KCCI report from the time, he and pal Zachary Mendoza were killed in Council Bluffs, IA, after their car skidded and hit a pole.
"I got off the phone and I tried to calm down, but my mind was racing. Derek was the father of the baby I was carrying inside me," she recalled in her book. "We hadn't spoken in more than two months, but crazily I had still hoped we had a future together — me, him, and our baby, as one happy family. It's every teenage girl's dream, isn't it?"
Over the years, fans watched Farrah keep Derek's memory alive by sharing photos on social media and taking Soph to her father's grave. Back in 2016, our hearts shattered during an episode of Teen Mom OG when Sophia told her mom she "wanted to die" to see her dad.
"When you say you want to die to see him, it really makes mommy sad," Farrah cried. "Do you know that it hurts mommy when you say those things because I care about you, and I love you?"
We're so excited to watch her emotional story play out on the big screen. Love Teen Mom? Be sure to join our Teen Mom Facebook group to chat about all the latest updates and juicy gossip!

John Brice
INDIANAPOLIS — Enokk Vimahi surveyed the scene around him inside the Lucas Oil Field locker room, he and his teammates fresh off Ohio State's third-straight Big Ten championship.
This? This was a foundational moment worth a nearly 4,500-mile journey from Kahuku, Hawaii, to Columbus.
"As a freshman, sometimes you don't get to play as much but you get to learn from the leaders in front of you, and I feel like Coach Stud [Greg Studrawa] said it the best: 'You've got to see how much effort, how much time they put into winning the Big Ten,'" Vimahi told Lettermen Row. "Just being behind the scenes and seeing that, learning as a young pup, you know I feel like I already gained an advantage from that. Maybe not taking the reps physically, but we stress our mental reps here a lot.
"Whatever the future holds, I know I got better just because of the mental reps I've been getting."
Vimahi's future now entails a different journey than the path originally planned. Initially, the 6-foot-4, 270-pound 2019 U.S. Army All-America selection had intended to fulfill his Mormon mission immediately on the heels of his freshman season.
Yet after careful introspection, Vimahi is delaying that journey.
"It was kind of a hard process for me, because I know I had already established I was going to leave after this semester," said Vimahi, who appeared in two games this season and will enter 2020 as a redshirt freshman. "Through much prayer and after talking with my parents I felt like, you know, it was best for me to stay.
Ohio State guard Enokk Vimahi is sticking around instead of going on his planned mission. (Birm/Lettermen Row)
"I don't regret that decision at all. Coach Stud and Coach [Ryan] Day are supporting me through that decision as well my parents. You know, it's time for me to be an adult, make my own decisions. That's what they said, and I'm happy to see what my career here at Ohio State is going to end up being like."
Vimahi's comfort in making the decision stems from a remarkable support system on his home island; a foundation that includes, according to former high school coach Sterling Carvalho, family and friends in Kahuku flying Buckeyes flags.
"It's very crucial, especially when you travel thousands of miles to Ohio, you know?" Vimahi said. "Just knowing that you always have someone to talk to, whether it be your parents, siblings, cousins, friends, past coaches, mentors. It's not just one person you can talk to, and that's the best part of that support system. And they're not biased with any of their judgment calls, either.
"They're going to give me the feedback that they think is best for me. But at the end of the day, they know that I'm grown enough to make my own decisions."

Vimahi's open approach to communication already is helping establish a bond for the future of the left wall of the Buckeyes offensive line with Vimahi and Dawand Jones, his fellow freshman classmate and roommate.
"Dawand plays left tackle and I play left guard, so we like to talk with each other a lot," he said. "He's my roommate, so we get along with each other really well. Especially the communicating, whenever we get in together during practice, we already know communication on the offensive line is vital and just establishing that connection with him, most of the time is half the battle."
Still, it's a battle for which Vimahi is preparing for alongside his fellow trench-men.
"You know, Coach [Phil] Matusz, our assistant strength coach, talks to Dawand and I and also Ryan Jacoby a lot about us being the future — and Harry Miller as well — being the future of the Buckeyes [offensive] line," Vimahi said. "You don't really feel it or it doesn't really hit you until you get into these big games like: 'Wow! We're starting to come to the end of our season. It's time for us to step up.'
"If we don't step up, someone else has to. So why not you?"
Thanks to a change of plans, that turn for Enokk Vimahi is likely coming much sooner than expected at Ohio State.

Michele Graglia is a model, author, fitness coach, and ultra marathon runner.  His book Ultra was published by Sperling & Kupfer in May 2017.  Originally from Taggia, Liguria, Italy, Graglia became an international model represented by Major Model Management in New York and the now defunct Irene Marie Model Management in Miami, FL, where he was initially discovered.    He currently lives in Los Angeles, California.

On July 24, 2018, Graglia completed and won the Badwater 135. He finished the race in a time of 24:51:47.

On September 15, 2018, Graglia started the ultramarathon across Chile's Atacama Desert. The translation company TransPerfect sponsored his run. Following the run, Graglia was officially certified as the new Guinness Book World Record holder for the fastest-ever crossing of Chile's Atacama Desert on foot. He accomplished the unprecedented feat in 8 days, 12 hours, and 49 minutes, the equivalent of 2 to 3 marathons per day.

On 11 October 2020, Graglia won the Moab 240 in 61 hours, 43 minutes, and 15 seconds. Graglia took the first place early on in the race and was tightly followed by fellow runner David Goggins until Graglia grew their gap during the second half of the race, at one point, close to 20 miles separated the two. Graglia would end up grabbing the first place, with an advance of almost 1 hour and a half over Goggins who would finish second.

The Horse Who Saw A Ghost - Black Duck Brook. #FolkloreThursday
With a history of European settlement that stretches back to the Basques in the 1500s, the Port of Port Peninsula has heard many a strange tale over the centuries. It has also produced a number of tale tellers, one of the best known being Emile Benoit.
Emile Joseph Benoit was born in 1913 at L'Anse-a-Canards (Black Duck Brook) on the Port au Port Peninsula, son of Medee and Adeline Benoit. He began playing the fiddle when he was nine, teaching himself to play on a home-made violin. By the time he was seventeen he was a well known local entertainer, and he went on to achieve national and international recognition. He was also a respected storyteller, both of personal reminiscences and the older traditional tales.
When he was a young man, Emile had a run-in with a ghost which was visible to horses alone. One weeknight in March he hitched up his one-horse sleigh and went to visit his brother Ben. Ben lived at Three Rock Cove, a fishing community on the northwest shore of the Port au Port Peninsula. Three Rock Cove was originally named Trois Cailloux, or "Three Boulders", by migratory French fishermen who used it as an outpost.
Emile stayed there for a spell and had supper. After he had dined with his brother he decided that he would go visit his sister, Yvonne, who lived about a mile away. He told his brother that he would be back at 9 o'clock and set out.
The wind was blowing from the north east as Emile made his way down the pathway. When he got close to his destination, he had to open a gate and go across a field. About two hundred yards further along was the sister's house, at the top of a rounded hill. He tied the horse up behind the house and gave it a feed of hay.
When he went into his sister's house he found her there chatting with some young women around his own age. Engaged in the pleasant company of the young women, he didn't notice the passing of time until he realized that it was already nigh on 9 o'clock.
It was a clear, moonlit night as he started back towards his brother Ben's house. By the time he hitched up the horse and turned the sleigh around., the wind had all but died away. He cut a plug of tobacco and started to make himself a cigarette as the horse plodded along. Then the horse stopped.
It was a good horse, and one of which he was proud. Tall and well built, its mother was a racer, and the horse had some of her character. When he bought it, he had paid out two-hundred and fifty dollars for the horse, a sizeable sum in those days.
Busily engaged in the work of hunting for a match for the cigarette, the driver simply told the horse to keep moving. Sure enough, the horse started to move, but not in the direction Emile had intended, for the horse began to back up along the path, retracing its steps.
He told the horse to go on again, but the horse continued to back up.
Puzzled, Emile started to look around to see what was frightening the horse but could not see a thing. He looked along the line of the fence, and could see nothing in either direction. It came to his mind that if he looked between the horse's ears he would see exactly what the horse was staring at. Therefore he got up on the board at the front of the sleigh and looked up over the ears of the horse, but could still see nothing.
With an oath, he reclaimed his seat, took a good hold on the reins, and delivered a blow to the horse with the whip. The horse reared up, turning the sleigh around like a top, and was off like a flash of lightning, back towards the house they had just left.
Completely startled by the horse's actions, he lost the reins. By the time he had taken them back into his hands, the horse was back at the gate they had pass through shortly before. Emile got out of the sleigh, took the horse by the halter, and started to lead him by hand
At this the horse pounded its hooves into the ground, stamping and whinnying, making it clear it would not set foot on the path. When it became obvious that the horse had no intention of returning home that night, Emile gave in and led the beast back to his sister's house.
Somewhat surprised to see him back so soon, his sister asked him what had happened. He related the story, telling her that the horse would not go back along the path. Emile then asked his brother-in-law Fintan if he would go back with him. Fintan refused to go and then told him a strange tale.
Apparently the mailman had also tried to move his horse along the same path the same night with the mail. And, at the same point, his horse had refused to move and had turned around the same way. The mailman was stuck, and had to find shelter for the night with one of the local families.
When Emile tracked down the mailman and asked him if he would go out and try again, the mailman refused. So two cows were taken out of the barn and turned out into the field for the night, and space was made for Emile's horse.
Eager to get home, Emile left around four or five in the morning the next day. The weather was the same as it had been the night before, with not a drop of wind and with a layer of frost on the ground. The horse once more plodded along, and Emile watched his ears, to see if the horse would act up when it reached the same spot.
When they reached the spot the two horses had refused to pass, the ears did not give so much as a twitch. The horse passed by as if nothing had happened, and maintained it usual pace all the way home. The frost on the path showed that nothing had gone before them.
ears later, in the style of a natural storyteller, Emile related the strange occurrence to the folklorist Gerald Thomas. In turn, Thomas included the tale in his book "The Two Traditions", which deals with the French language traditions of the Port au Port Peninsula.
Emile never uncovered the reason for the horses' fright. He was certain, however, that whatever the two horses had seen, it must not have been a pretty sight, nor anything pleasant, to have frightened them that much. In Emile's own words, "it wasn't God for sure he seen. No..."
According to the late Ferryland native Ray Curran, horses on the other side of the province had similar experiences. Mr. Curran told me that along the Southern Shore, there are a number of large rocks alongside roadways said to be possessed by the devil. There was one in Renews and another in Tors Cove. Horses would run away once they approached these sites and many people were injured as a result of these boltings.

The members of the Friday Discussion Group sat down at Hotel Namaskar Bar , on the 30th of September to discuss the article '" रोजगार सिर्जना कि सम्पत्ति निर्माण्' by Dwight R. Lee.
The author first states that Creating jobs is one of the medium of increasing property, usually the analysis of effectiveness of Government policies is determined on the basis of how much Job it had created. Additionally, the author says that, by making such ideas popular, they are unknowing by describing wealth rather than creating it.
The members of the group then floated their concerns over the authors' analyses of the issues.
The discussion started with the point that we should find our possibilities for creating the wealth. Some participant thought as an agricultural country Nepal should focus on it's agricultural sector putting forth with some examples like due to unacceptability of transport service our country, Apple is not getting market place. While in discussion most of the participants did not agreed with one other. Some argued that Nepal should operate Protectionist Policy to promote the goods of Nepal inside the country. However, some other participants by giving the example of Market policy, refuted this view and pointed that this policy will lead to economic Suicide. Instead we should focus on to increase the labor productivity of our country.on final thoughts everybody agreed on it's only the way by maximizing the economic freedom, the poor can create wealth and generate income for themselves which would help country to be prosperous.

City of Miami Police have released a recorded interview with Ronald Poppo, whose face was mauled off over Memorial Day Weekend.
In the interview, Poppo tells police when 31-year-old Rudy Eugene approached him, he was in a "glad mood" but turned "kind of vicious after a minute or two and then started to rip me apart."
During the recorded interview on July 19, Poppo told detectives "he just ripped me to ribbons, he chewed up my face, he plucked out my eyes."
Poppo said Eugene had just come back from the beach and had apparently had a bad day.
"He didn't like the beach, he said he wasn't scoring there or something," Poppo said. "For a while he was acting nice, then got a little bit flustered. He probably remembered some incident on the beach and got kinda mad about things."

Poppo said Eugene snapped and began attacking him.

"I didn't do a thing, I didn't know how to get away from the guy," Poppo said, adding that Eugene was bigger than him and had the advantage.
"At the same time he was picking my eyes out, he was strangling me in wrestling holds," Poppo said.
Eugene was fatally shot by police on the MacArthur Causeway when he refused to stop chewing on Poppo's face.
