Last year, the OU Campus crew took over the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach for a spectacular conference. Attendees enjoyed fabulous weather as snow storms wreaked havoc on the East and Midwest. During the Sunday night reception, guests ate delicious tacos from the famous Tamarindo Taco Truck as they listened to an authentic Caribbean steel drum band. On Monday night, attendees enjoyed a dinner cruise as they sailed across the Newport Harbor. The conference focused on exciting new OU Campus modules and gadgets and the extensibility now available through APIs. With over 250 people in attendance, it was our largest conference yet!
Both the 2013 and 2014 OmniUpdate User Training Conferences were held in beautiful Anaheim, California. In 2013, attendees were given a sneak peek of the early stages of OU Campus Version 10. The following year, 10 was a very significant number – We celebrated our 10th annual conference and we launched OU Campus v10. In addition to the incredible sessions and informative workshops, attendees were treated to an amazing trip to Disneyland in 2013 and a fun-filled excursion to Disneyland's California Adventure in 2014.
For two consecutive years, the OmniUpdate User Training Conference was held at the Universal Hilton, a location that borders the famous Universal CityWalk. Guests dined at local hotspots, and they loved participating in iFly skydiving, bowling, and karaoke. With the continual growth of conference attendees, we added additional tracks of training workshops to the schedule. The agenda for both conferences featured new strategies, techniques, and best practices with an increased focus on social media and mobile technology capabilities.
In 2009 and 2010, the OU Campus family gathered in Long Beach for two incredible conferences. In 2009, attendees enjoyed dinner on the historic Queen Mary ocean liner and visited the Aquarium of the Pacific. In 2010, they sailed across the Long Beach Harbor on a Hornblower dinner cruise. At both conferences, we shared new tools and technologies available and featured ways to maximize the value of OU Campus.
The 1st annual OmniUpdate User Training Conference was held in Palm Springs, California. With a focus on OmniUpdate's role in higher education, the event paved the road for future conferences. In 2006, the conference focused on the ways higher education websites can improve their marketing, recruiting, and advancement efforts. The next year's conference highlighted new technologies such as RSS and blogs. As we rounded out our four-year stint in Palm Springs, we concentrated on higher-ed specific CMS functionality. Feedback from the conference directly affected the product roadmap, and this practice continues today.

Afro-Haitian
Experimental Orchestra
What emerged from those long, hot sessions were a series of tracks with roots on both sides of the Atlantic…
Seven-and-a-half thousand kilometres of cold ocean separate West Africa from Haiti. But music can cover that distance in a heartbeat, crossing the Atlantic to reunite the rhythms and religion of people torn from their homes to be sold into slavery on the Caribbean island. And on its self-titled album, the Afro-Haitian Experimental Orchestra honours those ghosts of the past even as it walks steadfastly and hopefully into the future.
Experimental by name, the band was definitely experimental by nature. The concept started with Corinne Micaelli, the director of the French Institute in Haiti. She wanted to bring drummer Tony Allen, the power behind Afrobeat and one of modern music's towering figures, to the island. Allen agreed, and Erol Josué, a singer, dancer, voodoo priest, and director of the Haitian National Bureau of Ethnology, helped to recruit local percussionists and singers. They decided, in order for different strands of Haitian music to be represented, that the musicians would be drawn from a cross-section of the country's foremost bands, including Racine Mapou de Azor, RAM, Erol's own band, the Yizra'El Band and Lakou Mizik, the group of Sanba Zao, one of Haiti's leading percussionists and traditional singers.
"Putting it together was complete chaos," recalls Mark Mulholland, who was drafted in as the Orchestra's guitarist. "Madness. We were all in this tiny room, playing. We had 10 percussionists from all of Haiti's top bands. Then there was Tony, Olaf Hund on keyboards, and Jean-Philippe Dary, an old friend of Tony's, on bass. He became the de facto musical director. The sound was overwhelming."
What emerged from those long, hot sessions were a series of tracks with roots on both sides of the Atlantic, compelling layers of subtle polyrhythms that bridge centuries and cultures. Relentless grooves become the foundation for soaring, utterly modern melodies like the swirling, electronica-fuelled "Salilento" or the Afro Vocoder ritual sound of "Yanvalou" that's inspired as much by Krautrock and Sun Ra as Lagos or Port-au- Prince. Flying on inspiration and adrenaline, it's roots music for a global future.
The result captures the Afro-Haitian Experimental Orchestra sparking on all cylinders. The music is alive with the sense of spontaneity and adventure, the members supporting and pushing each other, diving headlong into the music and creating something that stands outside geography and genre.
From the past to the future, it's a sweep of music to grab and shake the listener. And proof that beautiful, dangerous music can rise out of chaos.

We've seen a very interesting trend (especially within the past decade) of modern-day science catching up to an ancient understanding about the true nature of reality, its make-up, how it functions and how we can work with it to bring about change on our planet. For anybody to label themerging of 'spirituality' and science as pseudoscience means they have not properly investigated it. Spiritual concepts of our ancient world are directly intertwined with modern-day science, more so quantum physics, and Nikola Tesla was well aware of this.

The good news: Facebook founder and chief executive Mark Zuckerberg wrote these words on Facebook's bloga. The bad news: he wrote them on November 29, 2011, more than seven years before the company revealed that political data firm Cambridge Analytica had gained access to private information on as many as 87 million Facebook users, primarily in the United States.
As I write this, Zuckerberg is preparing to testify before a joint hearing of the U.S. Senate Judiciary and Commerce committees, as well as the House Energy and Commerce Committee. While no one is seriously arguing that the #DeleteFacebook movement will lead to a mass exodus from the platform—or its immensely popular Instagram app. But it may spur greater consumer awareness of data privacy, which will require companies to get serious about protections to ensure innovation can continue apace.
Data allows brands and retailers to craft ever-more curated experiences for each and every consumer. Since the birth of e-commerce, brands have collected data such as purchase histories, payment information, addresses and contact information. Today, however, personalization innovation has spawned personal care systems built on consumer DNA, epigenetic data and even hair samples; smart mirrors that diagnose and track skin health; augmented reality try-on apps that track user behaviors; browsing histories that follow shoppers from one platform to another; and voice commands that build insights into consumer activities.
On the horizon, eye tracking capabilities and AI-powered mood diagnostics could take data collection from an assessment of actions to one centered on emotional state and intent. And, as smart home technologies grow in sophistication and ubiquity in all public spaces, new levels of data collection will become possible.
But data collection thrives on trust and a perception of value. To date, consumers have generally shown a willingness to share data when they value and trust a brand, and are even willing to share this information when offered special benefits or services in exchangeb. But high profile violations, including data breaches and misuse of user information, could erode these attitudes.
Data is oxygen for innovation. The beauty industry will need to keep an eye on how Silicon Valley juggernauts respond to recent data controversies, learn from them, and work to ensure the free and responsible flow of information continues.
In other news, Global Cosmetic Industry is delighted to announce that Bridgette Howard, founder of Parlor West Ventures, has joined its editorial advisory board. In her new role, Howard will advise Global Cosmetic Industry on content, industry trends and general business insights, helping to shape the continuing evolution of the brand. Parlor West Ventures is an incubator for early stage beauty brands that provides growth capital and strategic guidance across product development, manufacturing, distribution, financial management and customer acquisition.

Science Chemical Elements Hydrogen
Hydrogen in Periodic Table of Elements
Hydrogen, symbol H, molecular formula H2 is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, flammable gaseous chemical substance among the periodic table family. In chemistry or chemical science, the hydrogen atom is the only member of the chemical element in which the valence electron is under the direct influence of the nucleus, bearing one unit of positive and negative electrical charge.
Under ordinary conditions, hydrogen gas consists of a pair of atoms or a diatomic molecule with a wide range of bonding. The most important chemical compound water (H2O) is obtained by burning it with oxygen molecules. Due to its unique characteristics and properties, hydrogen (H) forms chemical compounds or molecules with nearly every periodic table active element.
The normal oxidation number or state of hydrogen in chemical compounds is +1 but highly electropositive metals (alkaline and alkaline earth), show a -1 oxidation state. The periodic table position of the unique member describes by its characteristics properties and electron configuration. The ns1 electron configuration justifies its position in group-1 with the alkali metals. Considering other facts, the electronic configuration of hydrogen is one electron short of the next noble gas helium (He), thus it is placed in group-17 in the periodic table with the halogen. Due to the presence of a half-filled valence shell, it is also placed in group-16 with the carbon family, forming covalent bonds with a wide range of polarities in chemistry.
Properties of Hydrogen Gas
Due to the presence of three isotopes, the gas molecules are represented as H2 (dihydrogen), D2 (di-deuterium), T2 (di-tritium). The chemical properties of all these gas molecules are basically the same but hydrogen isotopes differ by their physical properties. At standard temperature and pressure, hydrogen gas exists as a colorless, orderless, tasteless, highly combustible, non-toxic, nonmetallic chemical compound. The chemistry of hydrogen has late gained, it uses as an alternative source of energy in near future (fuel cells) due to the huge stock of H2 in the earth's surface water molecule.
The molecule is a very stable species, at 2000°K and 1-atmosphere pressure, only one percent of atomic hydrogen is present in the gas molecules. Therefore, these facts suggested the lack of reactivity at ordinary temperature and pressure. Among atomic forms, it forms various unstable ionized species like a proton (H+), a hydride ion (H–), a molecular ion (H2+).
Preparation Formula
Hydrogen is prepared by the action of metals on water and acids, by the electrolysis of water, or by the reforming hydrocarbon by the stream. It is also obtained as a byproduct in the electrolytic manufacture of caustic potash from brine.
Small Scale Preparations
The alkali and alkaline earth metals like sodium (Na), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and aluminum (Al) react with water in cold conditions evolving hydrogen gas. In hot conditions, metals like Zn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Mn decompose water.
Large Scale Production
Very pure hydrogen and oxygen are obtained from the electrolysis of 20 percent caustic soda or potash solution in steel cells using iron electrodes. The anode is nickel plated to prevent oxidation. The anode and cathode are separated by a porous diaphragm to prevent diffusion and mixing of the gases.
Large amounts of H2 molecules are now obtained from the reforming of natural gas (hydrocarbon) by steam in presence of a nickel catalyst at 900°C. CnH2n+2 + nH2O → nCO + (2n+1)H2. Some carbon dioxide and methane are also formed by this process. The gas mixture cooled and removed carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane(CH4) for the fresh preparation of H2 gas molecules.
Uses of Hydrogen Gas
Hydrogen is used for the manufacture of chemicals like ammonia, hydrochloric acid, alcohols (methanol), aldehyde (formaldehyde), etc.
The atomic, molecular, and liquid form is also used in fuel cells (hydrogen-oxygen fuel), hydrogenation of oils, welding atomic torches, reduction of metal ores, propulsion of rocket (in Saturn-V), in bubble chambers for the study of high-energy particles.
In near future, liquid hydrogen is used as an alternative source of energy when our reserves of fossil fuel (coal, oils, and natural gas) will get exhausted.
The great advantage of liquid hydrogen used as fuel is that it is free from the pollution hazard of conventional fuels. The only problems lie with the storage and transmission of large quantities of gases. Therefore, vacuum isolated cryogenic tanks are used to stage huge quantities of liquid hydrogen in the United States, Canada, Germany, and United kingdom space programs.

We in America have lost faith. Not only is there a decline of religious faith in the United States; there is also a lack of confidence in the institutions that made this country a worldwide superpower, respected by all.
I'm most worried about the lack of faith in our justice system.
Today, people of all races, creeds and colors believe the status quo, which has created a current prison population of 2.3 million plus another 4.5 million on probation or parole. That simply isn't fair. Rich people get to pay their way out of problems while poorer people (mostly those with darker skin) get swallowed up by the system, imprisoned and tainted by their conviction record for life.
This column will likely make me no friends in the legal community, but things need to be said and facts need to be revealed. The problems within the justice system can be traced to the lawyers who run it — the judges, defense attorneys and government prosecutors — and the watchdog organizations established to police those lawyers, like the American Bar Association and its statewide chapters.
When taxpayer-funded prosecutors commit malpractice, they are rarely held accountable. To err is human, of course, but when a prosecutor deliberately withholds information that could exonerate a defendant, tampers with a witness or routinely puts winning ahead of the search for truth, steps should be taken to remove that person from office. That rarely happens.
Across the nation, there are provable cases of prosecutorial misconduct, yet most often neither the ABA nor state bar chapters fulfill their mandate to protect the citizenry by issuing a public censure, sanction or some other type of punishment for an offending attorney.
According to a recent commentary at TheAppeal.org, an organization that tracks trends within our justice system, prosecutors are almost untouchable under the current legal structure. The authors, former California public defender Jeff Adachi, who died suddenly two months ago, and California public defender Peter Calloway say prosecutors are "essentially absolutely immune from civil suits" in cases of misconduct that lead to unwarranted convictions.
It is fairly uncomplicated for someone to sue a police officer for misconduct, but federal law still provides an enormous umbrella of protection for those who do their lawyering from a district attorney's office.
There have been several studies into the problem of dishonest prosecutors. The Yale Law Journal reported in 2006 that prosecutors withholding evidence favorable to the accused "accounts for more miscarriages of justice than any other type of malpractice." Yet their offenses are "rarely sanctioned by courts, and almost never by disciplinary bodies."
Talk about protecting your own at the expense of justice.
In Massachusetts, the New England Center for Investigative Reporting scoured more than 1,000 rulings going back to 1985 in which a defendant claimed harmful prosecutorial misconduct. In 120 cases, state appeals courts reversed the conviction due to misbehavior by the prosecutor. That is a small percentage of reversals, but there is agreement that this kind of malpractice is way underreported. Lawyers for the wrongfully convicted frequently move on or don't want to complain about a local prosecutor they'll have to deal with again. Just think of all the time served by those defendants who either didn't get a fair trial or were just plain innocent of the charges.
The NECIR also found that when courts tossed out these unconstitutional convictions or outright exonerated the prisoner, the prosecutor was rarely named or disciplined. No prosecutor has been disbarred in Massachusetts since records began 50 years ago.
So, if a wrongfully convicted person can't sue an unethical prosecutor and neither the state nor national the ABA take steps to remove the offender, then what's to keep that prosecutor from continuing unscrupulous behavior? The answer is: nothing. Bad actors in Massachusetts, California, New York and other states have been allowed to continue in their prosecutorial positions. Some have become judges or district attorneys.
The situation became so egregious in San Francisco in 2017 that Adachi and Calloway filed a formal complaint against one particular local prosecutor who they said was a habitual repeat offender. They wrote, "When people are accused of crime ... they cease to be seen as people by our legal system and become merely 'criminals.'"
San Francisco Assistant D.A. Benjamin Mains was accused of withholding important evidence and crucial witness statements in "seven serious cases" going back years. In December 2017, Mains was fired from the D.A.'s office. I could find no California State Bar Association action against Mains. He is currently listed as having an active law license and reported to be in private practice.
As usual, allowing a company, organization or government to police itself doesn't work. If we truly want to restore the public's faith in our judicial system, everyone — I repeat everyone — needs to be held accountable. Time for the bar associations and district attorneys everywhere to demand better ethics from their members.

This first part of The Blacklist's second season has been all about revenge and the lengths people will go to find the revenge they seek. What's interesting about "The Scimitar"—where this theme is most prevalent—is who uses violence and intimidation to achieve revenge, and those who use other tactics in order to stop it.
As with most episodes, unfortunately, "The Scimitar," is weakened by the weekly story occurring amongst the stuff that really matters. At the very least, "The Scimitar" does what last week's "The Mombasa Cartel" tried to do, by tying the baddie-of-the-week into the backstory of one of our characters, but it doesn't work as effectively as it did with Dembe. What really matters about The Scimitar is that he is responsible for killing Samar Navabi's brother, and her attempt at getting revenge against him is why The Scimitar is in town trying to kill one of America's top nuclear scientists in the first place.
As usual, the mechanics of what The Scimitar's larger goals are aren't really that important, it's about where they take the characters. The show tries to throw in a few curveballs, such as having Keen, Ressler, and a man they're trying to protect get in a car accident, then end up in the hospital that's actually a front, run by The Scimitar. But it's such an obvious twist, it's almost silly. Also, the accident that gets Keen and Ressler in the fake hospital just reminds us that The Blacklist is pretty awful at directing any action of any kind. Their slow-mo reactions to the car flipping over and over are actually laughable.
But what happens to The Scimitar when Reddington eventually finds him is interesting. Instead of turning him in to the FBI, he lets Samar do with him what she pleases. It doesn't look like she'll take out her revenge. But later in the episode, we find out that The Scimitar was found with a bullet in his head, so…I think it's safe to assume she went through with it.
Liz is also enacting her own dual attempts at revenge, first with her husband Tom, who is chained inside of a boat for Liz to interrogate at her leisure. Liz is trying to find out information about Berlin, since he's the one that caused all of this Tom business in the first place. This is all well and good, but what really matters is what Liz does with Tom, once she's drained him of all information. Liz has changed greatly since we first started off with her at the beginning of the series, so going down that rabbit hole of premeditated murder would be a whole new step towards how dark she can really become.
What I find most fascinating about "The Scimitar" is the lengths Reddington will go with some people to help them get bloody revenge, while trying to keep his hands clean as much as possible, even while seeking his own. For example, he is completely okay with Liz's plans to find Berlin and kill him instead of turning him into the FBI, just as he also gives The Scimitar to Samar on a silver platter.
But with his own plans, Reddington is much more plodding and deliberate with his actions. Ever since Zoe has been introduced to the show, there's been speculation that she could be his daughter. But of course The Blacklist wouldn't answer the question of who Reddington's daughter is—which it's been dragging out for a season and a half. It turns out Zoe is Berlin's daughter—the daughter that Berlin thought was dead, and the one who is the reason he's gone after Reddington so fervently, for so long. So clearly the intel he's received from someone else is faulty, with someone trying to play Reddington and Berlin against each other for some unknown reason.
Even though it's great that we see our characters headed in dark—and hopefully interesting—directions, "The Scimitar" is just sort of bland. It's as convoluted as this show usually is, but it also tries to be clever and fails, with the audience able to stay one step ahead of every twist and turn. If you can pull off the twists, the episode should be exciting, but without them, it's just boring and predictable.
It'll be great if next week's fall finale ups the limits that "The Scimitar" tries to push. But if it can't pull off the surprises (like this week's episode), The Blacklist could take a break at a disappointing low point.

The Adventures of Gap Year Girl: More winter knitwear!
Yeah, I have to admit, I am an addict.
This week i finished my lopi sweater and my tri colored slip stitch beanie. Check them out!
I'm thinking of writing a pattern for the beanie. I loved how it turned out. I think my next cardigan project will be that kind of design, but with five or six colors rather than three.
Anyway, time to go. I have more knitting to do.

Top 5 Ghost Walks Outside of Mississauga
by Ashley Newport on November 7, 2018
It might still be the beginning of October, but let's be real - that means it's practically Halloween! There's never a bad time to book a spooky ghost walk, and if you love to get your spook on, there are a bunch of places not too far from Mississauga that are perfect for your creepy adventure.
If you've never gone on a ghost walk, you're missing out. They're not the kitschy and cheesy "boo!" scare events you might be picturing -- they're often as enlightening as they are entertaining. A good ghost walk doesn't focus on spirits and the supernatural too much (although each tour is different); it emphasizes history and the dastardly deeds (think murders and executions) that took place right under our feet not so many years ago.
So, here are the top five ghost walks outside of Mississauga that are worth checking out. 5) Ghosts of the University of Toronto
You can embark on this tour on Tuesdays and Saturdays until October 31, and it's very close to home. This tour starts outside of the Royal Ontario Museum (100 Queen's Park) and takes you to one of Canada's most prestigious (and apparently most haunted) institutions: U of T. If you take this 90-minute tour, you'll hear about haunting love stories, secret chambers and the darker aspects of the academic institution's history. 4) The Original Haunted Walk of Kingston
This one is a little further away, but it's consistently recognized as one of the best ghost walks in the country. This 90-minute walk begins in the lobby of the Prince George Hotel (200 Ontario Street) and takes you through the quiet streets of the city at night. If you take this tour, you'll learn about hangings at the courthouse, body snatchings, and a haunted guest house. 3) The Hermitage Ruins in Hamilton
If you want to stay close to home and explore a forest at night (can you think of anything creepier?), this local-ish tour is probably a good choice. This walk begins in the Hermitage Ruins parking lot on Sulpher Springs Road, lasts about 90 minutes and is handicap accessible. As you walk through the woods, you'll learn about Ancaster's oldest legends, cults, rituals and a ghostly coachman. The Ruins have been part of Canadian ghost history for generations! 2) Hamilton's Dark History
Hamilton is apparently a very spooky place. This tour starts in the alley behind Radius near 151 James Street South and lasts about 90 minutes. The description for this event is straight up and appropriate: just dark and violent stories. You'll learn about botched executions, mafia families and horrifically violent assassinations. You'll also learn about some dark and colourful historical characters, so this one is almost as academic as it is disturbing. 1) Niagara-on-the-Lake
One of Ontario's finest tourist hotspots is also one if its most haunted. Starting at 126 Queen Street, this 90-minute walk will be almost as gorgeous as it will be spooky. You'll walk the streets of one of the country's most iconic destinations and see the courthouse, the Prince of Wales Hotel, the Royal George Theatre and more. The best part? You'll get to visit a house that will do something very strange to your camera. Enjoy!

Majority of Texas Voters Want to Legalize Cannabis
Thu / Mar 4th
by Lukas Barfield
A recent poll found that 60 percent of Texans are ready to legalize cannabis "for any use."
A recent poll by the University of Texas and the Texas Tribune hints at a significant rise in the state's support for cannabis legalization.
The survey asked Texans whether or not they supported cannabis legalization, letting respondents choose between four options: "Never," "For Medical Purposes Only," "Small Amounts for Any Use," or "Any Amount for Any Use." Overall, 60 percent of Texans support legalizing the possession of either small amounts or any amount of cannabis, for any use.
Only 13 percent of respondents said cannabis should "never" be legal, while 28 percent believed cannabis possession should only be allowed for medical purposes.
The largest demographic in support of full legalization was the 30-44 age range at 69 percent. The least supportive age group was Texas' older population but a significant number of aged Texans, 53 percent, still said they would support the right to possess "small amounts" or "any amount for any use."
This is a big jump from a decade ago, according to the Tribune, as a May 2010 poll revealed that 54 percent of Texans opposed legalizing cannabis, with 27 percent preferring medical-only cannabis. The same poll found just 42 percent of Texans supported legalizing cannabis.
In an interview with Marijuana Moment, Heather Fazio — the director of Texans for Responsible Marijuana Policy — said, "Current marijuana laws are harsh, unreasonable, and unpopular. Thankfully, both Democratic and Republican lawmakers have put forward bills to change the way Texas handles marijuana."
Texas has seen ups and downs in its cannabis policy. Cities like Fort Worth, Dallas, and Austin are not enforcing low-level cannabis crimes, but cannabis remains highly illegal in the Lone Star State. Additionally, while Texas has a limited medical cannabis system and an industrial hemp industry, local politicians have offered little support to the programs and in many cases have attempted to hamper progress.

Sheds are a great option to choose should you have the need to store some of your belongings. While you can buy or build your own shed, there are some significant advantages and disadvantages that you should be aware of before you make a decision. Please read the information below which will highlight the good and bad about building a shed, buying a shed, and the materials commonly used for sheds.
As the builder of the shed, you have maximum control over its design. This is important because you will be able to build the shed to serve your exact needs. Additionally, it will be a bit cheaper to build a shed since you will only have to pay for the materials and tools. Along with being less expensive, you can build your shed according to your schedule, which can be significantly faster than having a professional build it for you. Professionals generally have other projects and may not dedicate themselves fully to your particular project.
While you may have more creative control, you will need to put in a great deal of time and effort when building a shed. If you are intending to build your own shed, you should be prepared to see the entire project through, which will require some organization and careful planning.
If constructing the shed will take too much time or you'd rather buy for the convenience, purchasing a shed is the optimal option. You may have to spend a bit more than constructing it yourself, but you will be saving yourself a great deal of time and effort. Additionally, if you have your shed built by professional, you can be assured that it will be built properly.
While buying will save you time, it unfortunately will cost you more, especially if you hire a professional to build the shed. A normal shed costs about $300, while hiring a contractor or builder can cost you up to $3000 with labor, materials, and additional costs. You not only will be spending more money, but you also lose a bit of the creative control when it comes to your shed. Overall, money and the intended use of your shed could be taken into consideration before you go ahead and buy a shed for your home.
Wood- Wood is the most aesthetically pleasing material to use for a shed, but also the most expensive and difficult to use for the project. Wood sheds need sturdy foundations, which can be a daunting step in the building process. Wood sheds also need added protection to repel insects, fungus, rot, and weather damage.
Metal- Metal sheds are much cheaper than wood sheds and are not susceptible to fire and insect damage. However, cheaper metal sheds rust over time, but more expensive aluminum sheds will be resilient to it. Overall, not very aesthetically pleasing and the sharp corners of the protruding metal could be hazardous to children.
Plastic- Plastic is not only the cheapest option for material, but it is also lighter and tougher than wood. Additionally, it requires the least amount of maintenance because it resists most forms of damage, such as insects or rot. Although, plastic sheds may not offer the design or decorative options that metal or wood shed do.
Vinyl- Vinyl is the one of the better options as it stronger than plastic or metal sheds. However, it is the most costly option. If you desire a shed that can withstand the weather and are willing to pay quite a bit more, vinyl sheds will be a good option.
Engineered wood- Engineered wood resolves many of the problems traditional wood flooring encounters: moisture damage, bugs, and rot and may use more eco-friendly practices when using and growing the trees needed since different types are used. Compared to traditional wood, however, engineered wood may also be more expensive for initial purchase, and homeowners should make sure core layers are still made using high-quality wood. The top veneer may be too thin for sanding and refinishing later in the material's life, so thicker flooring should be considered.

Locost_JohnH: That was one of two stories I was thinking of, just forgot were I read it.
I also purchased the rubber jobs from Speedway, then decided I didn't like them. I then bought the 1864A17 stainless steel adjustable draw latches with a safety catch. A little pricey, but I like them a lot better. I wasn't sure how well I would be able to paint the cad plated latches and the SS I can just leave as is.
As it turns out, I may not need latches at all. With the way my one piece hood/nose is hinged at the front, it just lays down and doesn't move even at freeway speeds.
What is the 1864A17 and where did you get it?
NEVERMIND. Just found it on Mcmaster. I am thinking about getting 4 of these also to hold on the hood. What do people think about them?
I got these on eBay, They look nice, I have yet to see hwo they will work.
My rear cover is a fiberglass lay up. My original latches were not very secure. Saw these and thought they were just the ticket. Bought a pair China. When they finally arrived I must say I was very impressed. The latch very securely, look good, and appear very well made. Ebay prices are all over from $4 each to around $10 each. Domestic shops like Summit are pricing these out around $26 each. In my opinion the wait (I wasn't in a hurry, it was cold in the garage) was worth the $20+ difference.

Oklahoma / Playing Saturday
The replay of John Moreland's network television debut is…glorious and affirming and a sucker punch. He is announced by Stephen Colbert, lights dissolve, and the camera slowly focuses on the person midway across the unadorned stage, revealing him beneath muted blue lights.
He is a big man.
Seated, alone, cradling his acoustic guitar.
He looks like nobody who is famous.
Then he begins to sing, to caress the song "Break My Heart Sweetly," and all that remains is to whisper, "Oh, my god."
In Colbert's studio everybody stood, like they were in church.
Big Bad Luv is the record John Moreland made after, after everything in his life changed. For the better.
He sings in one of those accents from flyover country that's impossible to locate and implausible to mimic. (Texas, by way of Northern Kentucky, but mostly Tulsa, as it happens.) He sings directly from his heart, with none of the restraint and filters and caution the rest of us would apply for public protection. He sings with resolute courage.
He sings.
And writes. Writes with simple eloquence about love and faith and isolation; the human condition; what every song and poem and novel is about, at the core: Life.
"Break My Heart Sweetly" came from his second solo album, released in 2013 and titled In the Throes. High on Tulsa Heat, released through Thirty Tigers, landed him on Colbert's stage (that's the LP Colbert held up). Song placements on "Sons of Anarchy," an emerging artist nomination from the Americana Music Association.
Enough sales to compel Moreland to give up his DIY label operation, and sign with 4AD. "It grew to the point where I couldn't really handle everything myself," he says. "Even with a manager and a small team, I came to the conclusion that I'd like to play music and not worry about the other stuff."
Enough success to buy a measure of peace, and not more pain. "I expected to just play in the corner of the bar and have people not really pay attention, make $100, go home and go to work the next morning, doing something I didn't like," Moreland says. "So, yeah, I didn't really expect to be here. But, then, on the other hand, I did. I feel like I'm good enough to be here. And I've always been confident, even when I probably shouldn't have been. I knew I was an outsider. I didn't have a lot of faith in the music industry to let me in. But I guess they have. To some extent. That's what I hoped for, but I wasn't sure that would be how it worked."
"In churches learning how to hate yourself/Ain't grace a wretched old thing" he sings, the song called "Ain't We Gold." Big Bad Luv is unmistakably a rock 'n' roll record. If,
that is, one understands the term to include Ray Wylie Hubbard, John Hiatt, and Lucero. Or The Band, maybe. Insistent songs, coming from a voice as elegant as unfinished
barn wood, songs which insist upon their words being heard.
His fourth solo album, not discounting two records with the Black Gold Band and a third with the Dust Bowl Souls. Nor discounting early excursions into hardcore which were
not youthful indiscretions but crucial training in the emotional honesty of confessional songwriting. A rock album, to be performed by a rock band. A partial break with the
solitude of solo touring.
"Two or three years ago," Moreland says, "it would have been impossible to picture touring with a band. Now that's changed. I think I'll still do some solo or stripped down
shows, but I have the option to bring a band with me if I want. Ultimately it's just what the songs felt like they should be."
Big Bad Luv was recorded down in Little Rock, mostly with a crew of Tulsa friends: John Calvin Abney on piano and guitar, back from Tulsa Heat; Aaron Boehler on bass; Paddy
Ryan on drums; Jared Tyler on dobro. And then Lucero's Rick Steff on piano, which ended up being the catalyst for completion.
"I always start off writing whatever comes naturally," Moreland says. "Once I've got seven or eight of those, then I'll take stock and look at what I've got, figure out what
belongs on a record together, and what might not. Then I'll figure out what kind of songs I need."
Three sessions over ten months, sandwiched between touring dates and life. The final sequence roughly approximating the order in which songs were written. "I chose the
sequence for what I thought worked best musically," he says, untroubled.
"Quick bursts of recording," Moreland goes on. Gives off a quick laugh. "It's not like we're sitting there over-thinking the performances, I'm definitely a fan of just hit record and play it. But then there's long stretches where I'm not in the studio, when I'm listenin to what I did, asking how do I turn this into a record?"
The key turned out to be Rick Steff's promise to record next week, even though Moreland didn't have songs, not a one. "I went home and wrote five songs in four days
and finished up," Moreland says. Another deep, wry laugh. Big Bad Luv is, at least by comparison…maybe…a happier record? "I don't think I'm writing songs that are that much different," Moreland says. "It's always been a positive thing at heart, even if a song isn't sunshine and rainbows. At the very least my songs have been a way to exorcise negative feelings so that I can move on. And hopefully they provide that same experience to listeners. So that's what I'm still doing. I think it's a positive thing. I think this record, there's definitely a change in attitude, but it's the same point of view."
Oh, yeah. And Tchad Blake mixed it. "He's also the only person I've ever worked with on a record whose name I can drop."
"Slow down easy, I've been hauling a heavy soul," he sings, this song titled "Slow Down Easy." Carrying it for all of us, but no longer alone.

Introducing the Picarro PI2114 Hydrogen Peroxide Analyzer
日期: September 18, 2017
We've just introduced the new Picarro PI2114 hydrogen peroxide gas concentration analyzer for GMP pharmaceutical manufacturing. You can learn more about it and download a data sheet at www.picarro.com/pharma. Here's a short description about the applications it addresses and the benefits and advantages of using it.
High-potency active pharmaceutical ingredient (HPAPI), large-molecule (biologic) drugs, and aseptic fill and finish require isolated, sterile production environments. Vaporized hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the principal treatment for decontamination in isolated pharmaceutical manufacturing. But if the residual H2O2 level is too high after decontamination and aeration, or anytime during the production process, the drug product can oxidize and degrade. At best, this is costly. At worst, it's dangerous.
The recommended exposure limit (REL) of H2O2 by workers in general industry is 1 part-per-million (ppm), codified in 29 CFR 1900 by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). Other applicable standards may vary based on a specific industry and exposure time, but they are generally in the ppm range. While sufficient for human health and safety, ppm levels are too high to prevent drug oxidation and to sustain efficacy, safety, and stability. Some biologic drug producers are setting levels as low as 30 ppb to avoid oxidation. Health and safety monitors that measure exposure limits in ppm cannot ensure H2O2 levels are low enough to avoid drug product oxidation.
Monitoring Residual H2O2 Levels During an Aeration Cycle
As shown in the above illustration, the Picarro PI2114 gas concentration analyzer has almost five orders of linear dynamic range, and it can continually measure H2O2 levels. This enables users to:
Measure H2O2 levels as low as 3.3 ppb to avoid oxidation and help sustain drug efficacy, safety, and stability.
Monitor the residual H2O2 level during the initial aeration cycle to determine when it is low enough to reliably begin production operations.
Monitor residual H2O2 continually throughout the production process to ensure it does not rise to an unacceptable level due to off-gas contamination.

Ruined building adjacent to leat south of Hentor Farm
Gerrard and the National Trust suggest that this building may have served as a mill building, due to the unnecessarily close proximity of the later Phillips Leat.

Two rectangular buildings, adjacent to each other within small field system SX56NE/379 on Hentor Warren.
Gerrard, S., 1990-2002, Monument Protection Programme. Archaeological Item Dataset., MPP 140435, 18/05/1995 (Report - Survey). SDV277946.
(SX 5899 6554) This single compartment cross passage rectangular structure lies at the southern end of Hentor farmstead and is possibly associated with an early phase of the medieval occupation. The southern part of the wall defining the west edge of the farmstead seems to follow a course dictated by this structure before changing alignment to enclose the larger, and possibly later, farmhouse. However, the wall may have delineated an area intended for a specific function. The structure is composed of coursed drystone masonry but is very tumbled and much loose stone is strewn over the interior. However most of the wall line can be traced. The outer wall face is particularly well-preserved and 3 and 4 courses survive in places. The surviving inner and outer wall faces indicate a wall width of 1.20m surrounding an internal area measuring 6m long by 3.5m wide.
Some large stones are visible in the north-west and north-east walls. A clear entrance in the north-east wall is marked by a gap, 1.20m wide, 6.50m from north-west end. It is flanked by large facing slabs on the south-east side and faced masonry on the north-west side. Opposite this entrance in the south-west wall is another gap. Although it is not flanked by faced stones, it may be an entrance so that the structure has a central cross passage.
The relationship between the structure and Phillip's Leat is not clear. The leat flows immediately beside the structure; the outer wall face at the south-east end of structure is situated directly above the leat. It is difficult to believe that the gradient of the slope necessitated the excavation of the leat so close to the building; the slope is relatively gentle here and any leat would have been at risk from blockage from fallen rubble. Another wall is situated directly above the east side of the leat, opposite the structure. Such a wall on the uphill side of the leat is the only one of its kind along the course of the leat. Elsewhere the leat is accompanied simply by an upcast bank on downhill side, though here, that is also slightly different, spreading out to 6m wide on either side of the structure. It is possible that the wall on the east side is a product of upcast or fallen masonry. However it seems to have been carefully built with faced stones.
The National Trust Inventory suggests that the only conclusion can be that the leat was brought to this building for a specific purpose such as milling. It is possible that a hole, roughly square in section and extending horizontally for up to 1m into the outer wall of the structure, housed a mill-shaft. The poor state of preservation renders positive interpretation difficult, though the disturbance could itself be explained by vibration of mill machinery. Opposite the shaft, 2 notched stones among the facings on the east side of the leat may also be associated with a water wheel. Another 2 vertical grooves are visible on stones on either side of the leat, 45m from structure. It is possible that these were associated with a sluice gate for control of water. It is unlikely that Phillip's Leat was brought here for such a purpose, as the Hentor farmstead was probably abandoned by the 1830's when the leat was dug. However it is possible that across Hentor plain, the builders of Phillip's Leat used an old leat conveying water from Shavercombe Brook to Hentor farmstead. If so the latter pot water leat may have continued beyond the farmhouse to this structure. An activity such as milling may have been a later development at the structure after its initial occupation.

CoreRFID's expertise means that we are best placed to help you select the most relevant RFID types for your business.
We are happy to discuss your requirements with you (just contact us), but the table below gives an overview of the main alternative RFID types.
Low Frequency and High Frequency passive tags have a low cost of implementation but relatively short read ranges of a few centimeters or less. NFC is a particular standard related to HF tags.
Ultra High Frequency passive tags and reader/writer devices are more expensive and the tags are generally larger but offer read ranges typically of up to 10 metres.
Semi-Passive These systems have battery-assisted tags that activate their on-board power when a reader is detected. More expensive than passive tags, semi-passive tags offer much greater read ranges but are larger, more expensive and have a limited (several years) life.
Active tags are similar to semi-passive tags in having on-board batteries. Active tags can announce their presence sometimes to existing network hardware rather than relying on a reader to trigger them. More expensive than other approaches and not as well standardised, active RFID is usually used for real-time location applications.
Hybrid RFID New classes of RFID tags are beginning to emerge, combining RFID data transmission and reception with on-tag sensing mechanisms that can identify temperature changes or movement for example.

Samsung Galaxy S3 to be one of world's thinnest phones
By Gareth Beavis
Release date set for May
The Samsung Galaxy S3, a thin phone - who'd a thunk it?
The Samsung Galaxy S3 could be arriving in less than three months, and push the boundaries of phone sleekness again.
According to South Korean title Electronic Times News, the new phone will reportedly come in a package that's just 7mm thin, making it one of the thinnest on the market.
However, it wouldn't be THE thinnest, thanks to the Huawei Ascend P1 S, which launched to great (ish) fanfare at CES this year popping up at 6.68mm thick.
PCB thin-win
Printed circuit boards will allow the phone to be made up to 20% thinner according to the title, with the Galaxy S3 development team in place for nearly a year already in its quest to stay ahead of / topple the iPhone (depending on which report you read).
The media outlet also stated the Samsung Galaxy S3 release date has been set for May, which would likely put it slightly ahead of the iPhone 5 launch and allow Samsung to create some early hype for its flagship phone.
There's very little else in terms of specs or details on when Samsung will actually announce the 'delayed' phone – but it seems the notions that it will be a quad-core behemoth with a larger Super AMOLED HD screen and Ice Cream Sandwich are pretty much nailed on.

Toronto's New City Hall—Past and Present
Toronto's New City Hall
Many cities throughout the world have landmark structures that are easily recognized, even when there are no captions or context that identify their location. A few prime examples are the Eiffel Tower, United Nations Building, Golden Gate Bridge, Coliseum, Taj Mahal, and Buckingham Palace. If photos of these buildings are displayed, there is no need to identify the city where they appear as they have been well known for decades and in some instances, for centuries.
Toronto possesses two such structures—the CN Tower and the New City Hall. When I was travelling across Europe and Asia in the late-1970s, in the windows of travel agencies, I sometimes saw photos of the New City Hall and the CN Tower. The images were being employed to promote Toronto as a tourist destination. Most people I talked to readily knew where these landmarks were located.
Toronto was not always as well known internationally as it is today. In the 1930s, the city remained a quiet and loyal part of the old British Empire. During the Second World War its economy expanded as it focussed on contributing to the war effort. After peace was declared in 1945, growth was stimulated exponentially by the pent up demand for housing, commercial buildings and entertainment. The post-war years were also when immigration increased immensely as thousands of people chose Toronto as their new home. The city's growth continued unabated throughout the 1950s. At the end of the decade, development was further intensified by the opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway in 1959. Ships were now able to bi-pass Montreal, which was at that time was Canada's largest city. Thus, the 1960s became a period of extremely robust construction.
Unfortunately, because of the city's rapid expansion during this decade, many of the city's heritage buildings were demolished. Many low-rise structures in the downtown were destroyed and replaced with towering skyscrapers. It was as if City Council had embraced the motto: "out with the old, in with the new." Most Torontonians embraced this viewpoint, feeling it was necessary if the city were to enter the modern era.
As a result, few objections were raised about the destruction of older buildings, including those that had survived for over a century. Many believed that these structures had little to contribute to the new urban scene. As well, the voices of those concerned about architectural preservation were mostly absent from the scene.
Unfortunately, some developers, aided by politicians, continue to favour this destructive attitude today, though I admit that things are improving.
A prime example of the destruction this attitude caused is the demolition of the Board of Trade Building on the northeast corner of Front and Yonge Streets. Built in 1892, it was demolished in 1959 and remained a parking lot until another structure was erected on the site in 1982. The left-hand photo depicts the building constructed in 1982, and the right-hand photo the Board of Trade Building erected in 1892. Readers are invited to compare the two structures and judge accordingly. For more information about the Board of Trade Building: https://tayloronhistory.wordpress.com/2016/06/11/torontos-board-of-trade-building-demolished/
However, despite the damage created by city planners of the 1960s, it was during this decade that Toronto built a magnificent New City Hall. It began when City Council and Mayor Nathan Philips initiated a world-wide search for an architect. Five hundred and twenty submissions were received from forty-two countries, the winning design by a Finnish architect — Viljo Revell.
Its construction commenced on November 7, 1961, its architecture a dramatic break from the ultra-conservative styles of the past. For over a century, since its incorporation as a city in 1834, Toronto had produced some remarkable buildings, but few that ever created as much praise and condemnation as the New City Hall.
When architectural drawings of it were published in the newspapers, reviews were mixed. One reporter wrote that Revell was to be Mayor Philips' Christopher Wren, who had designed St. Paul's Cathedral in London. Others declared that the design of the new council chamber resembled an ugly giant oyster, and expressed doubts that any pearls of wisdom would ever be expressed within it.
As construction costs continued to soar, many citizens felt that the entire project was fishy. After all, politicians at City Hall were well known to hook and gut taxpayers by wasting dollars on grand schemes. The unfamiliar futuristic design of the new civic building appeared to be proof of this suspicion. The council chamber in the New City Hall was also compared to a flying saucer. Some expressed the opinion that it might float upward into the skies above due to the political hot air that would be produced inside it by politicians.
However, as the edifice neared completion, people gazed in wonder at the oyster-like city hall chamber, nestled between the two majestic curving towers. Comparisons to fishy endeavours faded from the minds of most citizens, although some still questioned the $25 million building costs. The structure possessed many impressive features, the one that perhaps garnered the most attention being the pillar that supported the council chamber. It was twenty feet in diameter and extended down to the bedrock below. The two towers were not energy efficient by today's standard, but they were impressive to behold. It was as if Toronto had architecturally finally entered the 20th century.
When the building was officially opened on September 13, 1965 by Governor General Georges Vanier, the weather was cloudy, but nothing dulled the enthusiasm of Torontonians. Fighter planes roared across the sky above the towers and fireworks crackled, sputtered and exploded in the air above it. Mayor Jean Drapeau of Montreal was heard to remark glumly that he doubted that his city would have ever have a building to match it.

The view faces northwest, and in the background are the Toronto Armouries on University Avenue and the Registry Building, located on the west side of the New City Hall (both these buildings have since been demolished).
