"Erik Steigen and USA Media Rights were introduced to me in early 2012, and has since then been an integral part of my business team. Erik handles my royalties and publishing administration. He has successfully hunted down a nice chunk of royalties for me, he has sorted out copyright and PRO issues, and he helps in many other ways that go over and beyond the job description. He has clearly taken an interest in helping me in my career and made me feel like I am a priority to him and his company, which after decades in the music business has been really refreshing."
— Dave Mason, songwriter of "Feelin' Alright" and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee
"At a time when many in the industry were slow to understand the value of SoundExchange and the revenue stream we were collecting, Erik was a leader in ensuring that all of his clients were properly registered and collecting the royalties they were entitled to. Erik was an active supporter of our mission to bring greater value to artists and has been a great friend and ally. A true professional, and one of a handful that understands the complicated world of international royalty collection."
— John Simson, first Executive Director of SoundExchange (2001-2010)
"Through the years, I have enjoyed a business relationship with Erik. He is highly respected and his expertise and professionalism in music publishing and royalties financial management is essential to songwriters, music publishers and the industry at large."
— Barbara Cane, Vice President/General Manager, BMI
"Erik is providing an excellent service I didn't know I needed. His expertise gives him the ability to generate revenue I didn't know I had. He is persistent and focused but never annoying. It is a pleasure to work with him."
— Albhy Galuten, Grammy Award-winning record producer, songwriter, musician, orchestrator and conductor with 18 no. 1 singles.

Name That Spider: Meet Cryptocteniza kawtak
UC Davis professor Jason Bond, noted spider authority (Photo by Kathy Keatley Garvey)
Editor's Note: Good Day Sacramento featured Professor Bond and the spider on a segment Oct. 7.
https://gooddaysacramento.cbslocal.com/video/4770491-name-that-spider/
When UC Davis professor Jason Bond discovered a new genus of trapdoor spiders at Moss Landing State Park, Monterey County, and named the genus Cryptocteniza, he launched a "naming-of-the-species" contest.
The contest, beginning in mid-May and ending June 1, drew more than 200 suggestions from all over the world.
And now, Bond and fellow entomologists have selected a winner.
Entomologist Kirsten Pearsons, an alumnus of UC Davis who received her doctorate in entomology in August from Pennsylvania State University, submitted the winning name, "kawtak."
So it's official: the trapdoor spider--or what Bond calls "the new endangered living fossil found on a sandy beach on a seashore along California's central coast"--is Cryptocteniza kawtak.
"The derivation of the specific epithet is Native American – from the Mutsun word for seashore," said Bond, a noted spider authority and the Evert and Marion Schlinger Endowed Chair in Insect Systematics, UC Davis Department of Entomology and Nematology. The Mutsun Indians lived near Mission San Juan Bautista.
In a forthcoming scientific journal article on the spider's phylogeny, evolution, biogeography and discovery, Pearsons will be credited with naming the species.
UC Davis alumnus Kirsten Pearsons, who holds a doctorate in entomology from Penn State, selected the species name
"There were a lot of names proposed," Bond said. "They fell into a few general categories: 1) named after me – people apparently like my last name and the association with the James Bond character but naming a spider after one's self would not be good form; 2) Native Americans, particularly California indigenous groups; 3) location (Moss Landing) and/or physical description; and 4) names related to the recent Black Lives Matter protests and movement and George Floyd."
One of his co-authors helped select the name: Bond's former doctoral student Chris Hamilton, a Native American Chicksaw who is an assistant professor in the Department of Entomology, Plant Pathology and Nematology, University of Idaho, Moscow. "Chris was involved in crafting the name and etymology."
"I have also named other California spiders in the past for Native American groups and feel strongly that such new species names are an elegant connection California, to the land and its native people, " Bond said.
The UC Davis professor said the Cryptocteniza kawtak is "morphologically distinct and geographically isolated from other related genera, with its closest phylogenetic relatives found much further to the east in New Mexico and Arizona."
Trapdoor spiders are so named because they construct their burrows with a corklike or wafer trap door made of soil, vegetation and silk.
Bond discovered the female spider in 1997, and figured at the time it might be a new genus. But despite repeated trips to the site, he could not find a male for 22 years. The male proved elusive until pitfall trap sampling in the fall of 2019.
It is rare to find a genus in the field, the professor said. The usual place is in museum collections.
Bond believes the genus is found only in that area, but thinks it may be closely related to a genus found in New Mexico and Arizona. "It is quite plausible that this genus was once likely far more widespread across California and the American Southwest, with potentially greater past species diversity throughout its larger hypothetical ancestral range," he said
In their journal article, the five-member team reconstructed the spider's evolutionary history: its extinction following the Miocene epoch, 23.03 to 5.3 million years ago and the establishment of a Mediterranean climate. "Owing to its phylogenetic distinctiveness, incredibly narrow distribution and age, we show that Cryptocteniza meets all the criteria of an 'Endangered Living Fossil' and is consequently of grave conservation concern," Bond said.
The other three co-authors are Bond lab members, doctoral student Rebecca Godwin and project scientist James Starrett; and Joel Ledford, an assistant professor of teaching in the Department of Plant Biology, College of Biological Sciences. Ledford interview Bond on May 18 for his Tree of Life-UC Davis YouTube channel. (Watch it online.)
The group opted for no public vote on the spider name, as it might result in something similar to "Boaty McBoatface," the winner of a contest to name a British polar research vessel.
Of the genus name, Cryptocteniza, Bond says that the adjective "hidden or secret" is prefixed to Cteniza, the Greek feminine noun "comb." The latter refers to the comb-like rastellum (row of stiff spines on the chelicera) common in taxa and formerly assigned to the spider family Ctenizidae (e.g., Eucteniza). The prefix refers to both the diminutive form of the rastellum and the seemingly "hidden in plain sight" nature of the genus, he says.
Bond credited Vera Opatova, a postdoctoral fellow in his lab, with helping to formulate the genus name.
Pearsons said that when she proposed the name, this is what she wrote: "Kawtak means "on the seashore" in the Mutsun language. Before the Spanish arrived, the moss landing area was home to the Mutsun people (http://amahmutsun.org). Today, tribal members and linguists are working to revitalize the Mutsun language, so this could be a small way to recognize this effort and to recognize their ties to the Monterey Bay. Also, it just sounds nice following the genus name!"
For her doctorate, Pearsons (she studied with major professor John Tooker at Penn State), explored how pest management affects arthropod decomposers and decomposition in field crops. She received her bachelor of science degree in environmental toxicology in 2015 from UC Davis.
At UC Davis, Pearsons served as a peer advisor in the Department of Environmental Technology for nearly two years. She also worked in the summer of 2014 as a student intern in the UC Davis Department of Entomology and Nematology's bee garden, the Häagen-Dazs Honey Bee Haven on Bee Biology Road.

Arapahoe Basin was the first ski area to be built in Summit County. It has changed—but not too much—since its construction in the 1940s, and most of A-Basin's dedicated skiers like it that way. It's America's highest ski area, with a base elevation of 10,780 feet and a summit of 13,050 feet. Many of the runs start above the timberline, ensuring breathtaking views (and the need for some extra breaths). Aficionados love the seemingly endless intermediate and expert terrain and the wide-open bowls that stay open into June (sometimes July). "Beachin' at the Basin" has long been one of the area's most popular summer activities.
Although A-Basin has no rooms, the dining here is on par with what you might expect at bigger resorts. Starting around December, don't miss the Moonlight Dinner Series put on by Black Mountain Lodge's chef Christopher Rybak, a prix-fixe meal that rotates themes like "A Night in France" and "Randonnée Dinner" which ends with a moonlit ski. On New Year's Eve, ski, snowshoe, or hike to the mountain for a themed dinner under the moon. Because A-Basin is on U.S. Forest Service land, there is no resort lodging. The closest place to stay is 5 miles down the road in Keystone, which is accessible by the free Summit Stage bus.

I just finished up a tricky mechanical patent, and I'm looking forward to starting my next project, which involves escape rooms. I've got some short proofreading in between. What are the rest of you up to?
At work: taxes and general finances. Both translating and doing my own - so to speak, getting stuff ready for my accountant.
At school: Rabelais. Then translating humor in literature.
Escape room material sounds fun.
Translating humor is such an interesting challenge. Are you focused on Rabelais, or are those two separate classes?
[Chinese > English] Size Chart please help!!
This is just a rough estimate in case you're in a hurry. Hopefully someone better at Chinese will come along and help!
What will be the "turns out cigarettes are bad for you" item of this generation?
I'm having trouble finding very many universities that offer degrees in translation studies (rather than a degree in the target language), what universities do you guys know of?
If you speak German, the universities of Heidelberg and Mainz have translation degree programs with a focus on translation studies (and practically no tuition!), but you should be aware that the German university experience is very different from the American one. It's also important to note that the U. of Mainz program is not actually located in Mainz, but rather Germersheim.
[Unknown > English] Language found on student's assignment, what is this? Is it real? What might it translate to?
Edit: I can't make heads or tails of the writing, though. It's like they only half-memorized the alphabet and then made up the rest.

Tip #1: Stick to your Day Job!
My first tip applies to those many trainers who intend to take the plunge and leave their full-time jobs to become a self-employed trainer. Until you've got your freelance career up and running as a trainer, minimise the risk by sticking to your current job until the time is right. Build up your contacts network, hone your trainer skills, establish your customer base in your free time. On the one hand this does mean you will have to work twice as hard, working on your future career as a trainer while still working on your full-time job. However, you will have much less risk and much less pressure as you will have your income that you can rely on for the time being. It also means you can ensure that you build a cash reserve so if the worst comes to the worst and you can't work for several months, you have some money to fall back on when you start your trainer career.
One of the advantages of working as a freelance trainer is, essentially, you can work from your living room. Generally speaking, all you need is a computer with an internet connection, a phone, and a printer. These days, designing a basic website is really inexpensive. You can even build a decent-looking site yourself with a modular system. You don't normally need an external office either. Some freelancers point out at this stage, that working from home can be lonely, which is why they often decide to opt for shared offices or co-working space. But certainly in the initial phase of your start-up why not just meet your colleagues and your network partners at home or in a café somewhere? Others argue they need to have an office to invite their customers. Certainly, at start-up phase make sure you meet your customers in their premises, or, if you really think you need a meeting or training room, find one you can book for a day or an hour. And don't forget: there is good, online software you could use, which is free.
Define what makes you special, define your niche, what sets you apart from the rest. In any market you have got the choice of three options. You can either be cheaper than the rest, and to be honest very few trainers start out aiming for that particular avenue. You can try to be better than the rest: quality. You can try to be different from the rest: offer something that others are not offering, or where very little competition is around. What that means is looking at your background, your resume, at what you have studied, and try to think 'How can I combine that with something intercultural?' Often people opt more for conformity. They offer 'awareness training'; they offer training for a specific culture, which is okay – it's just there is lots of competition out there for that. It's hard to get noticed, and of course that is going to have an impact on prices. If, for example, your background is in logistics and you've been in industry for a while, and you can offer intercultural competence for that particular branch – or your background is in human resources, and you can offer intercultural personal development training or coaching – these are different types of concept that will suit target groups, and will get you noticed. It's also possible of course, that later you will also get the classic awareness training as well. It is just that having that slightly different profile from the rest is what makes you stand out.
What this means is, unless you are an educator or an experienced trainer already, you need to participate in a good train-the-trainer programme to get you ready for designing and delivering intercultural training. It's an investment you are only going to make once, so carefully select a programme that suits your needs. For example, if you're going to work in the academic field, in universities, find one that caters for that focus. If you plan to work in the business world in the future, in the corporate context, find one with a very strong focus on business. Have a really close look at the syllabus, the curriculum they offer you, and speak to the people who run it. Look closely at the profile of the trainer team to see if it matches what you need, in terms of their field experience. And perhaps the most important thing, have a talk to past participants of the programme. A good provider will send you as many names and phone numbers and email addresses as you need of past participants, who will tell you in detail all you need to know about the participant experience and how they profited from the programme. At this stage it might be worth mentioning our Intercultural Business Trainer Moderator programme (IBTM). If you like, take a look at it on our home page, and if it's for you, drop us a line.
Okay, so you're all 'trained-up' now, you've done your train-the-trainer programme, you've defined your profile, you're good to go. The only snag is, well, nobody has heard of you. This is where networking takes place. This is where going out there, meeting people, shaking hands, pumping flesh, kissing babies and so on – this is where that's required. Networking, finding people who may want to buy what you're offering, or partner with in different projects. In our industry, SITAR is very helpful (Society for Intercultural Education, Training And Research), in particular because you have the chance to go to a local group near where you live to meet like-minded trainers who you can meet up with and exchange, to get yourself known and established in the field. Otherwise, of course, join social media. Use those different groups, contribute to social media platforms, make contacts, do everything you can so people can find out what you're doing. The more people know about about you and want you're offering the higher chances of you being found and engaged to deliver some training.
In our industry, intercultural training, in principle there are three basic strands that you can, of course, combine. One, is to form or find a network of like-minded people that you get on with, where you have skills and training topics that are complementary, so that you can join up and address the customers together. The second choice you have is to go via third-party training providers, often big organisations, and apply to be taken into their pool of trainers, so that when there's an inquiry for the topic that you offer, they will hire you on a freelance basis. And sometimes, of course, there is a third option of going for direct selling, direct customer acquisition. Not every trainer likes this. If it's your type of thing, it's a great thing to do. It can make sense to take part in a marketing and training sales programme for this. You may not be surprised to find out that we have one of these: an open programme for trainers on this topic. If you'd like to find out more, have a look at our website or drop us an email.
What this means is, you're just starting out as a freelancer, as a trainer and you have a fair few things to learn, as you know. It makes great sense to enlist the support and advice of someone more experienced, more seasoned as a trainer or an entrepreneur, to help you during your first few months and through your first year, for example. You'd be surprised how helpful many experienced trainers are at passing on what they know to those who are coming through now. So hook up through trainer networks, through SITAR for example, to try and find someone you can learn from who can train you. If you're in Germany, as we are, the very good news is there is quite a strong state financed network for recognised start-up coachings. We do some of this and if you are in Germany please feel free to drop us a line to take this further.
This suggestion surprises some people for two reasons. They ask, 'Well, surely that's expensive?' and they say, 'Well, surely I can do it myself.' Yes, good accountants cost money, however, it does make sense to shop around because rates vary. In my experience, it's a well-placed investment with value for money, because when you start out there is so much you don't know, about value-added tax, about income tax, about social security contributions, that type of thing. Try and find an accountant who knows how freelancers tick and what they need, and ideally someone who understands trainers and has worked with trainers before, for the special types of questions you are going to raise. Do shop around because competence levels in the particular field you work in, and rates they charge, do vary.
The secret of your success in your first year, or even in your first few months as a freelance trainer, is going to be focus. Doing the right things, in the right way. And the key to focus is defining the goals you want to achieve over that first year. Obviously one goal you will want to achieve is going to be monetary: income. Defining for yourself what you need to earn over the first year in specific revenue income that you can break into quarters and into months, helps to focus your activities and your efforts in the right direction. Many trainers prefer, rather than revenue per month, to choose amount of training days per year, which is also a fine way to do it. Again, you can break the amount of days you want to train per year into quarters or months and keep track of it to make sure you're on the right way.
Once you're defined your goals, the key then is to ask yourself, 'What levers do I have to move to achieve those goals? What has to happen? And which actions do I have to focus on to make sure I achieve those levers?' And that simple, 'split-into-goals, levers, and specific actions based around those levers' is how a simple strategy is formed.
As you've seen, from these first 9 tips, starting up as a freelance trainer isn't going to be necessarily easy. It may not be a cakewalk. However, it's a very enjoyable path to take, if you look after yourself. Which means, watch your health, watch what you eat, make sure you have the chance to recharge your batteries, you have your 'me-time', your down time, your time for your family, for those close to you. This is not just so you can enjoy your life and enjoy your life, but even more so because it has a direct impact on the quality of your training that you maintain in the short, medium and long-term.
I really hope you've enjoyed this Educast and you are now motivated and ready to go in your career or future career as a trainer. Training is a very rewarding field to be in, if it's your cup of tea. It really is the best job in the world.

Seixo, também conhecida como Seixo de Mira, é uma freguesia portuguesa do município de Mira, com 15,70 km² de área e 1253 habitantes (censo de 2021). A sua densidade populacional é .

A freguesia é composta pelos seguintes lugares: Seixo, Cabeças Verdes e Marco Soalheiro. Foi criada pela Lei n.º 56/84, de 31 de dezembro, com lugares desanexados da freguesia de Mira.

Demografia
A população registada nos censos foi:

História
O lugar do Seixo aparece pela primeira vez mencionado em 1619 nas inquirições relativas ao concelho de Mira. O lugar era composto de poucos fogos, sendo mencionado um Manuel Figueiras, como morador principal do sitio. Rapidamente o lugar foi crescendo em casas e população, devida a migrações do interior. O lugar de Cabeças Verdes surge com a extensão e abertura dos terrenos ao uso do povo. Nessa época de crescimento foi decisiva a utilização do moliço para fertilização dos solos, constituindo uma autêntica epopeia a "vida à ria de Aveiro". Não era fácil, e para muitos se tornava uma vida dura cheia de tormentos, arrojo e aventura. A apanha do moliço constituiu durante décadas o sustento de muitas famílias da terra, marcando assim, profundamente, o modo de ser e de pensar das suas gentes. O Marco Soalheiro, como sítio já existia, mas com o tempo surgiram construções urbanas, sobretudo com gentes de Calvão, que do Canto construíam fogos para cá do limite do concelho.

A criação da Freguesia eclesiástica, primeiro como curato, deu-se em 1919, sendo então bispo de Coimbra, Dom Manuel Luís Coelho da Silva. Foi um momento muito marcante para a população que via a sua capela elevada a igreja, sinal de reconhecimento e emancipação. A primitiva capela, cuja construção era de 1865, foi demolida em Novembro de 1964. Segundo documento da cúria da Diocese de Coimbra, onde de lê que "a capella-mor está em estado decente e em termos de nella se poder celebrar depois de benzida…o corpo ainda…se conserva em bruto, sem solho e forro". O seixense é um povo profundamente religioso e com uma fé viva, demonstrada no elevado número de sacerdotes católicos. Merecem também referência especial os inúmeros serviços e organismos que têm nascido à sombra da instituição religiosa com o forte dinamismo dos párocos e dos movimentos eclesiais auspiciadores dos alicerces do futuro desta terra. A Igreja Nova, construída no tempo dum magnífico homem que marcou o Seixo, o padre Carvalhais, é um monumento impressionante do espírito comunitário do povo do Seixo, Cabeças Verdes e do Marco Soalheiro. Sua construção começara a ser idealizada nos inícios da década de 40, sob a presidência do então pároco padre Basílio da Costa Morgado que, em 1946, procedeu à Escritura da doação do terreno para a mesma. No entanto, a construção do novo templo só teve inicio no tempo do padre António Carvalhais. A nova igreja é finalmente "benzida solenemente em 23 de Setembro de 1956, pelas dezassete horas, com grande solenidade e festejos da população".

Em 1984 é criada a freguesia civil com sede no Seixo. A elevação a autarquia sub-municipal constituiu o culminar de uma forte demonstração da vontade e um momento alto para as populações dos três lugares que vê a sua emancipação estendida a nível de governo local.

Apesar das suas origens humildes, o Seixo apresenta características próprias bem definidas e distintas, das quais se salientam o desde sempre elevado números de pessoas com cursos universitários contrastando como elevado analfabetismo. Contudo, a economia local continua sendo primária, com algumas iniciativas no sector terciário. A Zona Industrial do município localizado na área da freguesia.

A nível de infraestruturas sociais, destacam-se a construção da Sede da Junta e do Posto Médico, a construção do armazém de apoio, com os equipamentos para Centro de Bem-estar Infantil, da Cerci e do centro de dia, a construção do Polidesportivo do Seixo e do monumento à Mãe Gandaresa e a homenagem a todas as mães do Seixo.

Note: These are in-engine screenshots captured on PC with ultra quality settings and super sampling.
I created the custom deferred light-driven "fire light" surface shader in conjunction with the rendering engineer and VFX artist. The fire lighting allows artists to simply place customized deferred lights in the world and instantly get scorching effects. This pipeline approach was a significant time saver for artists compared to other methods such as vertex blending.
The rendering engineer created a custom graphics buffer (G-Buffer) that samples the luminance value of a deferred light among several other things and stores them individually in the buffer's RGBA channels. My shader reads from these channels and performs several functions to achieve the scorching effects including linear interpolations, screen space UV distortion (for faking heat waves), and dissolve effects to watch the fire spread over time across the surface. The VFX artist strategically placed the lights in the world along with flame particles and explosions.


In celebration of the 2014 college basketball tournament, Acura will debut an innovative multi-media marketing campaign featuring the all-new 2015 Acura TLX sports sedan, going on-sale this summer. The campaign titled "Official Vehicle of Everything Thrilling," launches this month and will run extensively across ESPN digital and TV platforms, on the Bleacher Report, and during coverage of the college basketball championships.
The new Acura TLX campaign, themed around the TLX tagline "It's that kind of thrill," includes a broad mix of marketing activations aimed at driving conversation about the new TLX sports sedan. The campaign is designed to engage fans with exclusive opportunities to be the first to own the TLX.
Acura Newsroom: The luxury automaker has enlisted a team of writers, designers and producers to create digital media, in response to live game action with banner ads. The ads compare the thrill of driving the Acura TLX to the thrilling events that college basketball fans are watching unfold (ex: "The official vehicle of sending the game into overtime by tipping-in your own miss.").
Acura's presence during the college basketball championship season follows the brand's recent major commitment to NBC affiliates in key U.S. markets during coverage of the Sochi games in February.
The all-new Acura TLX will be available this summer and will deliver a fresh and exhilarating blend of luxury refinement and sports-sedan athleticism, with exhilarating performance enhanced by next-generation Acura powertrain and dynamic handling technologies.

Released in February of 2009, the set comes with a high grade Zaku that has an extensive weapons portfolio, two Earth Federation Tanks (with option for battle damage), a Zeon Wappa hover craft and some Federation and Zeon soldiers.

Q: Take the color avarage of each column of a picture using OpenCV with C++ on Visual Studio 2019 I'm new using C++ and a need to compute the average of the red color in each column. Subsequently, I need to make a graph of the color density level per column.
This is the picture that i using, is a sample of a bone densitomery:

This is my code so far:
#include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>

using namespace cv;
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char** argv) {

FARPROC pGetPixel;

std::cout << "Medidas de muestra 1: \n";
Mat img = imread("C:\\Users\\Jimena G. Gordillo\\OneDrive\\Pictures\\den.bmp");

int matriz = img.cols * img.rows * 3;
const size_t chanels = 3; //RGB

//Lectura de cada pixel
for (int x = 0; x < img.cols; x++) {
    for (int y = 0; y < img.rows; y++) {

        size_t p = y * img.cols * chanels + x * chanels; //
        uchar b = img.data[p + 0];
        uchar g = img.data[p + 1];
        uchar r = img.data[p + 2];

        for (int i = 0; i <= img.cols; i++) { //here is where I want to obtain the sum of each column
            int sum = sum + i;
        //Calculate average
        long long average = sum / img.rows; // average is divided by the total of rows
        }
    }
}

cout << "Filas: " << img.rows<< endl;
cout << "Columnas: " << img.cols << endl;
cout << "Area: " << matriz << endl;

namedWindow("imagen", WINDOW_AUTOSIZE);
imshow("imagen", img);

waitKey();
return 0;

}

Any help is appreciated.

A: You are trying to check row by row not column by column also the third for loop is not needed.
Here is the solution for each channel(red,green,blue) columns average and graph of the column averages for each channel.
Source:

Red Channel Graph for each column average:

Green Channel Graph for each column average:

Blue Channel Graph for each column average:

Code:
#include "opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp"
#include "opencv2/imgproc/imgproc.hpp"
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

using namespace cv;
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    Mat img = imread("/ur/source/image/directory/img.png");

    imshow("Source",img);

    long int avgRedChannel = 0,avgGreenChannel = 0, avgBlueChannel = 0;

    Mat graphRedChannel = Mat::zeros(Size(img.cols,300),CV_8UC1);
    Mat graphGreenChannel = Mat::zeros(Size(img.cols,300),CV_8UC1);
    Mat graphBlueChannel = Mat::zeros(Size(img.cols,300),CV_8UC1);

    for(int i=0;i<img.cols;i++)
    {
        for(int j=0;j<img.rows;j++)
        {
            avgBlueChannel += (int)img.at<Vec3b>(Point(i,j))[0];
            avgGreenChannel += (int)img.at<Vec3b>(Point(i,j))[1];
            avgRedChannel += (int)img.at<Vec3b>(Point(i,j))[2];
        }
        graphBlueChannel.at<uchar>(Point(i,(avgBlueChannel/img.rows))) = 255;
        graphGreenChannel.at<uchar>(Point(i,(avgGreenChannel/img.rows))) = 255;
        graphRedChannel.at<uchar>(Point(i,(avgRedChannel/img.rows))) = 255;
        avgBlueChannel = 0;
        avgGreenChannel = 0;
        avgRedChannel = 0;
    }

    imshow("RedChannelGraph",graphRedChannel);
    imshow("GreenChannelGraph",graphGreenChannel);

Imagine the tragedy that could come about if you didn't know how much (products kind of) spend and particles you could invest your rental spend and particles dumpster. You could turn out throwing away the wrong thing and getting to dig it available before the pick up truck will cart it apart. Imagine the amount of fun That you will find!

Government must impose fees and penalties on the individuals for being the cause for generating the pollution in the country (except inevitable). The particular citizens also have to hold the responsibility by taking a solution to protect the planet.
Improper weightlifting of the huge trash on to the pick up truck may lead to low back pain, leg and arm ache, acute personal injury, and other significant chronic outcomes. The hospital expenses paid to prevent such accidental injuries will double the that the individual has preserved by cleaning the trash upon own. Eventually the person will end up spending large sum of money in addition to suffering.

Kaoruko, detta "Koko" è una giovane donna che conduce un negozio di erboristeria su una collina fuori dalla città e ha un legame particolare con il mondo naturale. L'arte di curare con le piante le è stata trasmessa dalla nonna, recentemente scomparsa, che le ha lasciato in eredità l'erboristeria. Un giorno arriva al negozio Kaname Hibiki, un avventore piuttosto strano, che le confida che sua madre è ancora viva ed è una strega nera, votata alle forze maligne, mentre la nonna che l'ha allevata e cresciuta era anch'essa una strega, ma bianca, quindi con intenti benefici. Anche Koko è una strega, le spiega lo straniero, ma il suo potere non è ancora stato risvegliato e Hibiki le spiega che è lì per proteggerla, infatti qualora dovesse avvenire, molti altri personaggi si metterebbero sulle sue tracce per rubarle il "potere della Regina delle Streghe" ereditato da sua madre.

James Altucher is a famous hedge fund manager, best selling author and entrepreneur who claims that it's financial suicide to own a home.
He basis the claim on his own personal experience of owning (and losing two homes) and his work in investing.
One of his claims is that the average home has increased 0.2% per year over the last century. I'm not sure where he got this number. Here is what I saw today. The average U.S. home price in 1986 was $98,500. The average price today is $276,800. This is nearly 6% per year for the past thirty years. And that includes the mortgage crisis which was biggest recession in the last 100 years.
All of these figures do not take into account that you also get the benefit of living in your investment. When you add those costs back in, the gain is impressive.
Try taking shelter in your 401k the next time the economy falters.
James also claims that renting is like making money because you can invest the difference in what you would spend. That rule is predicated on the fact that renting is cheaper than buying a home. Sometimes it is, but today owning is cheaper than renting a home.
And in order to rent, someone still has to own the home.
Now, I'm not saying that his info is incorrect because I do not know where it came from. But as an owner of a company that manages hedge funds, he'd probably prefer that you invest all of your money in the stock market.
The truth is "one size fits all" rarely works for everyone.
Your situation and problems are not the same as your neighbors. You need (and deserve) a solution that works best for you.
If you are considering investing, lets talk a few minutes about what you want to achieve.
And I'll help you find the best solution to your unique situation.

OBSCURE WORDS, LANGUAGE & ETYMOLOGY
Paul Anthony Jones
Fanty-sheeny
(n., adj.) anything showy or impressive; fanciful, absurdly over the top
This pretty unusual word popped up on the Haggard Hawks Twitter feed today:
So here's a bit more about it. Fanty-sheeny is a dialect word, pinpointed by the English Dialect Dictionary to Devon in the far southwest of England. That being said, it apparently has an etymological cousin at the opposite end of the country in fantoosh, an obscure Scots dialect word meaning "over-dressed", or "ultra-fashionable".
Both words are said to derive from fantoccini, an Italian word for string-operated puppets that was parachuted into English in the eighteenth century to refer to the vibrant Italian puppet shows and marionette shows that would have been popular at the time. The word fantoccini itself is often said to mean simply "puppets" or "dolls" in Italian—but its literal and etymological meaning is "little children", derived as it is from a diminutive form of the Italian fante, meaning "child".

"This type of realism makes a deal more likely, opens up political avenues for a very close EU-UK relationship and even potentially lays the ground for EEA membership"
This isn't something I usually say, but Westminster is right and Brussels is wrong.
Today's Brexit position paper on enforcement and dispute resolution is a good piece of work. It makes reasonable demands and puts to bed a lot of the crazier hard Brexit rhetoric from No.10. It also has one central argument, which is that the European Court of Justice (ECJ) is not a suitable body to arbitrate on whatever new arrangement the UK and the EU strike up. As it happens, they are correct on both counts – the hard Brexiters are wrong and so is Brussels.
The hard Brexiters want May to abide by her promise last autumn to remove Britain completely from ECJ jurisdiction. This was the exact moment it was clear she was a lunatic, reading scraps of paper her aides wrote without thinking and using them as the basis for the country's future prosperity. It was an amazingly stupid thing for her to have said. The drawbacks became clear almost instantly, when the government confirmed its involvement in a new EU patent court which would have an umbilical cord to the ECJ. Suddenly, years of work and income were at risk. Later, it became clear that our entire nuclear regulation system, under Euratom, had been put in jeopardy due to this commitment.
It was also counter-productive on a much deeper level. May said she wanted frictionless trade with Europe. But the only way to secure anything even approximating that is to agree to have the same standards as Europe. And it is the ECJ which rules on those standards once they are set. We were always going to have some sort of intimate relationship with it, or cut ourselves off entirely from our main trading partner.
Today, that foolish red line seems to be largely dead.
Over on the continent, Brussels are playing hardball with the ECJ issue from the other side, by suggesting it has an arbitration role over whatever deal they sign with Britain. At some point they are likely to admit that this isn't reasonable. It would be like having someone's family member act as judge in their trial.
The promise to end ECJ jurisdiction has been downgraded to a promise to end "direct" ECJ jurisdiction. May is out on TV today pretending this is the same promise as before. It isn't. In reality it means that we will accept ECJ decisions over all sorts of things, but not as the dispute resolution system to the final agreement. This is perfectly reasonable.
The position paper basically makes the case against ECJ involvement by laying out all the kinds of alternatives on offer in the way the EU conducts itself with other parties. There's a Moldovan arrangement, the mechanism written into the Canadian free trade deal, and, of course the European Free Trade Association (Efta) system. Here, the Efta court presides over the EEA agreement allowing Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein to share the single market.
This is particularly interesting to Brexit critics. The Efta court is the body which makes a soft Brexit in the single market possible. The fact it is being looked at speaks volumes. While the ECJ doesn't have to pay attention to its rulings, the Efta court does have to "pay due account" of the ECJ's.
At the moment the government is not proposing joining the Efta court. It can't, because it still resisting staying in the single market. It is just taking it as an inspiration. But the fact that this court is considered compatible with Westminster's red line on ECJ jurisdiction is important. Previously this would have been considered way too close to the ECJ for it to be tolerable.
The Efta court has a complex two-way relationship with the ECJ. It is a weird but surprisingly sturdy model. There is, at its heart, a direct link between the courts. If it is being considered a workable model we are in a world which is much more realistic than the one we were in before – and certainly more than the one we were in before the election, when May's tragic-comic aides killed all rational thought about the issue. It makes many options, which were previously considered impossible, suddenly viable.
This should be welcomed. It increases the space in which to argue for a soft Brexit in the EEA or, if that fails, offers the hope of the softest possible version of hard Brexit outside the EEA. It is credible, fair and evidence-based. But instead of praising it, Remainer and soft Brexit MPs are out on TV rubbing May's face in it, branding this a U-turn and telling Leave supporters they are not getting what they voted for. It's honestly hard to work out what side these guys are on when their message seems to be that only a hard Brexit will do. They are penalising the government for taking their advice, when they should be welcoming it and encouraging them to go further.
This type of realism makes a deal more likely, opens up political avenues for a very close EU-UK relationship and even potentially lays the ground for EEA membership. Some crazed minister will no doubt be making us all despair again soon - but for now, this is encouraging work.

U.S. Market News
China's August soybean imports from Brazil rise 22% from year earlier
BEIJING, Sept 25 (Reuters) - China's August imports of soybeans from Brazil rose 22% from a year ago, customs data showed on Friday, as buyers increased their purchases to take advantage of higher margins earlier this year.
China, the world's top buyer of soybeans, brought in 8.15 million tonnes of the oilseed from Brazil in August, up from 6.68 million tonnes last year, data from the General Administration of customs showed.
Crushers ramped up buying from the South American country to meet strong demand for feed from the recovering pig raising industry.
Imports were down from 8.18 million tonnes in July.
China imported 9.6 million tonnes of soybeans in all of August.
"Buyers booked a lot of Brazilian cargoes earlier when crush margins were good," a manager with a crusher in southern China said before the data came out.
"Now crush margins have fallen due to higher cost (of beans,)" said the manager, who declined to be named as he was not authorized to talk to the media.
Soybean arrivals in the coming months are expected to remain high, however, with more cargoes coming from the United States while Brazilian shipments slow, according to analysts and traders.
China brought in 166,370 tonnes of soybeans from the U.S. in August, down 90% from last year's 1.68 million tonnes, and up from 38,333 tonnes in July.
National soybean inventories CFD-SBSTK-NATN rose to 7.934 million tonnes by the week of Sept. 13, the highest since the week of Oct. 30, 2018, and more than double their record low in March, according to data from Cofeed.
China's national soybean meal inventories CFD-SBMST-NATN climbed to 1.27 million tonnes in the week of Aug. 30, the second-highest on record, before edging down this month. (Reporting by Hallie Gu and Dominique Patton; Editing by Christian Schmollinger)

A wide variety of deployers will be critical to hit densification goals
One of the biggest themes which emerged from the recent Small Cells World Summit was the need for a far wider variety of organizations deploying small cells. Now we need to build on that high level of interest, to grasp the opportunity to accelerate densification dramatically by broadening the deployment base. We are calling on members to get involved with a whole range of work items that will create the right conditions for a diverse ecosystem of small cell operators to develop and thrive.
There is an industry-wide trend to apply mobile communications to many more environments and business cases than in the past, and small cells are an essential enabler of that, bringing high quality cellular connectivity to enterprise premises, public spaces, cities and remote areas.
But in many of these environments, the business case for MNOs is unappealing. Their economics are predicated on single-operator, wide area mobile broadband systems, supporting huge numbers of users and applications with generic capabilities.
By contrast, enterprise, industrial and smart city small cells require localized connectivity which is tailored for the specific requirements of the organization; and in most cases, they also require multi-operator support.
That may not be attractive for most MNOs, but it presents exciting opportunities for a variety of other deployers, which can build a profit model based on localized, self-contained and highly optimized small cell networks. Those deployers may be neutral hosts, whose roll-outs can support many service providers including MNOs; private operators with their own expertise and ecosystem in a particular vertical market; or large enterprises which decide to build their networks themselves.
In all cases, they can tick several critical boxes:
Multi-operator support
Capabilities customized for the needs of the organization (e.g. SLA-quality reliability or lower latency levels than would be obtained on the main MNO network)
Added value services such as integration with other corporate systems or enhanced security
Flexibility about architecture, depending on the environment – e.g. some will deploy a private packet core or an edge computing node to support additional use cases
The MNOs may be involved as tenants, and/or providing spectrum, though one of the key enablers of the secondary market in small cell networks will be a more flexible approach to spectrum. In the coming years, alternative deployers will be able to use their own or shared spectrum. Important examples include shared systems like the USA's CBRS; spectrum earmarked for industry, as in Germany's 3.7-3.8 GHz band; and proposals for very localized blocks of 5G spectrum (as in the UK, and the USA's licensed CBRS scheme).
It is important to note that the rise of alternative deployers does not have to be a negative for MNOs. Some will recognize the potential of deploying networks deep indoors, or in challenging environments like hyperdense cities, critical comms or remote industrial IoT landscapes. These are likely to adapt their business model to share more assets with other operators or with enterprises, and even be neutral hosts themselves – in order to reduce cost and support multi-operator requirements. Others will focus their direct investment mainly on wide area networks but choose to be tenants on the neutral host and private sub-nets so that they can still deliver services to specialized environments without the cost of specialized build-out.
It is also important to note that the cells built out by these secondary deployers would not, in most cases, be rolled out by MNOs. At first glance, increased network sharing might appear to mean fewer cells, but one of the barriers that has slowed densification so far has been the poor economics of several MNOs each building a separate network. In other words, the new operators will greatly increase the total base of small cells by addressing environments that would otherwise be neglected altogether.
A calculation by Rethink Technology Research indicates the scale to which neutral host and private operators will accelerate densification and increase the world's installed base of small cells by 2025. By that year, in the worst case for non-MNO deployments, the cumulative base of small cells could be over 6 million units smaller than in the best case (one in which there is extensive build-out by alternative deployers from 2019 onwards). In that best case, a compound annual growth rate of 23% would be seen between 2018 and 2025 (global, indoor and outdoor).
Installed base of non-residential indoor and outdoor small cells – base forecast, with best case and worst case scenarios according to speed and extent of build-out by alternative deployers.
This is a clear indication of why neutral host and private cellular models are at the heart of Small Cell Forum's work programme for 2019-2020. It will impact on work that is being done on shared spectrum, including cooperation with CBRS Alliance; on edge computing projects; and on 4G and 5G use cases. The Forum will also be active in reaching out to alternative operators of all kinds to become members and help to drive the programme in directions which will help them achieve their goals.
Many of the calls to action which emerged from the discussions at SCWS relate to these issues and will help to shape the work of the Forum in the months ahead. These include:
Encourage neutral host models and private networks to accelerate deployment, especially for specialized environments, and lower barriers between MNOs and alternative deployers.
Encourage neutral host or enterprise-specific deployers to improve the business case for indoor connectivity while working alongside MNOs.
Define frameworks for cooperation between the owners of different assets, such as fiber and sites, to ensure an end-to-end neutral host platform and a single relationship for tenants.
Facilitate cooperation and understanding between MNOs, neutral hosts and enterprises to lower barriers to shared networks.
The chance to expand the number of organizations which can deploy small cells, and therefore the number of organizations which can make use of them to support new services, is an exciting and important one for the Forum. As members, you can make a real difference to creating the right environment for this new ecosystem to develop quickly, improving everyone's commercial opportunities.
