UPDATE: Big shots to visit Pinon Canyon; are drones coming?
Col. Robert McLaughlin, garrison commander at Fort Carson, says the tour of the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site has nothing to do with an effort to land an unmanned aerial vehicle training facility in Colorado.
Rather, in an interview this afternoon, McLaughlin says he was contacted last fall by some businessmen who wanted to get a better understanding of the PCMS, regarding cultural assets and the site's use, as well as "the balance between how we train and how we care for the terrain."
"We're open to whomever wants to talk to us about Pinon Canyon," McLaughlin says. "We're going to have the opportunity to show this group the site." He notes that some local folks from that area will be on hand to speak with the group, including those who have fought the Army's attempts to expand the site or expand the use of the existing site.
McLaughlin also says there is no attempt by the Army to do away with a 500-foot limit, and that helicopters using PCMS will observe the limit, unless safety prevents it, such as a sudden cloud cover.
In addition, he says, "Our goal is to limit the routes in," meaning helicopters won't fly willy nilly from Carson's Butts Field to the PCMS so that surrounding pastures of cattle or horses are disturbed by the flights.
McLaughlin emphasized that Carson wants to comply with the training restrictions under which it must operate at PCMS and cooperate with the community in doing so.

Business people from Denver and Colorado Springs are among those who this week will tour the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site, a training ground in southeast Colorado used by Fort Carson troops.
It might be part of an effort of the Front Range Airport Authority and others to convince the Pentagon to locate a drone test range in Colorado. The Greater Colorado Springs Chamber and EDC, and the Metro Denver Economic Development Corp. are supporters.
As we reported Feb. 9:
The 2012 defense spending bill contains funding for six pilot test sites for unmanned aircraft to be established by the Federal Aviation Administration. "Language in the bill orders that potential sites take into consideration geographic and climatic diversity and ground infrastructure and research needs," Doug Quimby of the Chamber and EDC says in a release. "We believe Colorado is a leading contender."
The drone training search coincides with the approval of a Combat Aviation Brigade at Fort Carson, which should start arriving in 2013 and will bring a fleet of drones as well as 113 helicopters and 2,700 troops. The unit's environmental assessment is currently under review by federal authorities.
Local activist Bill Sulzman warns: "Colorado's airspace is about to get much more crowded. The release refers to the 'Aerospace Industry.' In Colorado we know that industry is dominated by the military. This initiative will certainly lead to more military domination of our skies and our economy."
Maybe the testing range will be at the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site, which is sure to spark opposition. Some residents in the PCMS vicinity want the Army to stay out of their air space, at least up to 500 feet above their property.
Besides ranchers and homeowners, the 500-foot debate might end up involving a dispute between the military and wind energy developers, says Doug Holdread of Trinidad. He notes a 1946 Supreme Court decision that says surface owners "also own the super-adjacent air space and that invasions of it are the same as invasions of the surface."
Although the environmental studies surrounding Fort Carson's soon-to-arrive CAB say the unit won't use drones, there's speculation it's only a matter of time before they do.
Anyway, here's the invitation for Thursday's tour that's circulating:

Chevron Tanker in Southern Vietnam Boils Up After Oil Spill, Wounding Search Team

Written by Staff Writer by By Katarina Hoije, CNN London
The oil tanker, DAP Formosa, lies 65 miles off the Vietnamese coast.
It is 90% submerged with an oil slick stretching for miles beneath it.
According to Vietnamese authorities, oil in the Tanker poses a threat to beaches and waters off Vietnam's southern coast, home to an estimated 9 million people.
Chevron has been on a "beach restoration mission" since April 27 to clean up the oil and restore natural marine life, according to a report in Vietnam's national newspaper, VNExpress
"The seabed of the tanker is now a polluted area. It's been hit by oil and mud, as well as coal that's been discharged from another oil tanker. Most of the contents spilled from the mooring cables (of the second tanker) after its engine room doors were ripped open," Transport Minister Pham Van Khoi said in a speech at a dredging conference in Ho Chi Minh City.
"This whole area (is now) suffering from lack of fishing, destructive fishing equipment, widespread pollution. We are negotiating with the Vietnamese to stop all criminal acts," Chevron said in a statement, referring to "illegal action by certain Vietnamese vessels" to undermine salvage efforts.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called for an international investigation into who was responsible for the disaster, in a statement sent to CNN on Thursday.
Chevron spokesman John Christiansen said in an email that the company was treating the incident "very seriously." He said "there are no reported injuries or environmental impact at this time."
According to Christenson, the company will continue "damage assessment of the tanker, analysis of the fire and recovery operations," adding that its "top priority is to protect the environment and workers."

The breach happened on April 28, as the vessels were in the process of removing 500,000 gallons of fuel that leaked from the Bunker and Magatex units on the Greek-owned DAP Formosa. The tank's tank was carrying nearly 3 million gallons, or 92,000 tons, of bunker fuel.
Police who boarded the vessel found the "bunker's diesel core was exposed on the deck under hundreds of tons of mud, raising concerns that it might have been harmed."
According to the Indonesian news agency Detik, it was found that tank had three lifeboats.
Following the incident, both the fishermen who had prepared to lift oil by boat were prevented from starting their work by officers from Vietnam's Department of Maritime Affairs, and four Vietnamese sailors were arrested. The boat operated by Vietnamese freelance oil-cleanup operators was forcibly taken by Chevron to Danang port to gather samples.

In Vietnam, where palm oil farming and fishing are the largest sources of income for individuals, environmental damage can also have wider economic consequences.
According to a report on the incident in the Vietnamese newspaper Dieu Doan Huong, the Vietnamese Minister of Trade and Industry said that his country has "rejected joint venture projects" in an effort to protect the coastal environment.
Activists with Friends of the Earth Asia were outraged at the seizure, describing the action as "appalling."
According to OpenDemocracy, at least 70,000 gallons of fuel were discharged from both vessels.

Catherine Ashton and Stefan Fuele sent a letter to BiH CoM Chair Bevanda

HIGH REPRESENTATIVE
VICE PRESIDENT OF THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
ŠTEFAN FÜLE
MEMBER OF THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
ENLARGEMENT AND EUROPEAN NEIGHBOURHOOD POLICY
H.E. Mr. Vjekoslav Bevanda
Chairman of the Council of Ministers
Your Excellency,
We would like to congratulate you on your appointment as the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina. We also want to extend the congratulations to your entire government.
Our commitment to Bosnia and Herzegovina is clear. Your country has a real perspective to join the EU. While the responsibility for progress lies with Bosnia and Herzegovina, the EU will continue to assist the country on its European integration path, including through our strengthened presence on the ground.
We welcome your strong personal commitment to European integration, and in this regard we are encouraged by your presentation to the Parliamentary Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina in January. The list of priorities communicated in your nomination speech is also shared by the European Union.
Once it enters into force, the Stabilisation and Association Agreement will further strengthen the relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and the EU. In this respect, we welcome the adoption of the Law on the State Aid System in Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as the Law on the Population and Housing Census. We now encourage you and the Council of Ministers, to bring the Constitution into compliance with the European Convention of Human Rights (ECHR), in line with the Sejdic-Finci ruling. A credible effort in this regard is now required to fulfil Bosnia and Herzegovina's obligations under the Interim/Stabilisation and Association Agreement. Furthermore, to ensure progress on the EU agenda, it will be crucial for Bosnia and Herzegovina to ensure effective coordination between the State and the Entities on EU matters. Bosnia and Herzegovina has an EU perspective as a single country only. A proper coordination mechanism is therefore needed for the country to speak with one voice with the EU.
The lack of a political agreement on the 2012 budget for the state level institutions, including its international financial obligations, and the continuous disagreement on the Global Fiscal Framework 2012-2014 cause serious concern. A sound economic and fiscal policy is an essential prerequisite for the country's EU integration process. An agreement on the Global Fiscal Framework 2012-2014 is also among the basic preconditions for Bosnia and Herzegovina to start benefitting from the EU's Macro-Financial Assistance of €100 million.
We look forward to a continued and fruitful dialogue with you and we would to take this opportunity to invite you to soon come to visit the EU institutions in Brussels for a further exchange of views.
Catherine Ashton Štefan Füle

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Thursday said the December 30 election was 'a cruel mockery' with the nation.
"It was mockery, a cruel mockery with the nation, and the nation has plunged into darkness with this election," he said.
The BNP leader came up with the remarks while talking to reporters at city's Nirbachan Bhaban after submitting a memorandum to the Election Commission.
Earlier, a delegation of Oikyafront, led by Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, went to the Election Commission around 3 pm and submitted a memorandum to the EC demanding cancellation of 11th national election and holding a fresh one under a non-party and neutral government.
The memorandum, signed by Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, contains allegations of various irregularities in the national election, including creating obstacles towards getting nomination, 'mysterious role' of the EC and the returning officers in the scrutiny of nomination papers, arrest of candidates, discouraging local and foreign observers, creating obstacles towards electioneering by opposition candidates, controlling social and mass media and making the army inactive.
The memorandum also demanded cancellation of 11th national election and arrangement of a new election under non-party and neutral government, reports UNB.
Replying to a question why they came here while the new government has already taken oath, he said, "We've come here as the Election Commission conducted the 11th parliamentary election."
Answering to another question whether Oikyafront candidates who won the December-30 election will take oath, Fakhrul said, "We've rejected the results, so there's no question about taking oath."
BNP standing committee member Nazrul Islam Khan, Dr Abdul Moin Khan, President of Bangladesh Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal (JSD) ASM Abdur Rab, President of Krishak Sramik Janata League Bangabir Kader Siddiqui, Convenor of Nagorik Oikya Mahmudur Rahman Manna, Gonoforum General Secretary Mostafa Mohsin Montu were among the delegation members.

Michigan State forward Adreian Payne, left, cuts the net with Lacey Holsworth, who is battling cancer and has become close to Payne, after Michigan State defeated Michigan 69-55 in an NCAA college basketball game in the championship of the Big Ten Conference tournament on Sunday, March 16, 2014, in Indianapolis.
Adreian Payne is a senior center for Michigan State, but he's also known as 8-year-old Lacey Holsworth's big brother.
It's a relationship that many Michigan State fans have followed, and now thousands have seen in a YouTube video.
Although it's nothing biological, Lacey and Payne have considered each other family ever since he first met her two years ago when visiting a local hospital where Lacey, also known as Princess Lacey, was being treated for neuroblastoma with a large tumor in her abdomen wrapping around her spine.
"On a normal trip to the hospital that we do once and a while, she asked him to stick around, and he did," Michigan State coach, Tom Izzo said in the video.
Ever since, Payne has continued to visit his friend, joining her for fundraising events and bringing her to his own basketball games.
"Lacey is a special friend. She's like a sister to me," Payne said. "She's taught me to fight through everything, to always continue to have a smile on my face, even when things are going wrong."
And the feeling is mutual.
"Adreian is my brother," Lacey said in the video. "I just think of him and I smile."
And according to Lacey's mother, Heather Holsworth, such smiles are sometimes rare.
"There are days when those smiles don't come as easily," Holsworth said in the video. "When he can walk in the room, you see her just light up like that. It means everything."
"@Adreian_Payne: @adorablelacey came over and we was playing the piano yesterday. pic.twitter.com/VPDR9oR3ih" he's more than basketball💚
— Lacey's Legacy✨ (@adorablelacey) January 9, 2014
For Izzo, it has been a privilege to witness Payne and Lacey's interactions. Last November, when Lacey's condition worsened, Payne turned to his coach for support, and Izzo accompanied him to the hospital.
"The mother was whispering, 'AP's here to see you,' and as I sat there, just like a guy behind the scenes, and watched AP sitting on the bed with her, and the mother kept saying AP. And [Lacey] turned and her eyes opened for the first time in a couple days," Izzo said. "And it was just like her world was better."
As senior night approached, Lacey was determined to support Payne in his last home game. That evening, Payne carried Lacey throughout his entire senior celebration.
"I'm gonna be sad that he's leaving, proud of him as a player and maybe even prouder of him as a person," Izzo said.
But Izzo and Payne are certainly not the only people who have been touched by Lacey's story. Yesterday ESPN analyst Jay Bilas — who is known for not "following" anyone on Twitter — decided there was one account worth "following," the one for Princess Lacey.

question for this list

Would anyone object if I advised people interested in linuxbios just to join this list? It seems we have a lot in common.

I think life would be much easier in OpenBIOS if we did the following: 1) reduce the amount of 16-bit assembly so we need less nasm 2) reduce the amount of 32-bit assembly so we need less as 3) get to protected mode as soon as we can This is important, since initializing sdram requires that you be able to use 32-bit addresses 4) maximize the amount of C Since we aren't just for pentiums To get here, all we need to do is this: 1) in 16-bit mode, lgdt with the in-NVRAM gdt, switch to protected, and jump to 32-bit 2) in 32-bit, turn on memory, and call main() That's about all it takes. I haven't seen anything in the 16 and 32-bit init that we can't do in C, and that includes ins and outs. If I'm missing something let me know. I'm probably going to start to take my snapshot in this direction anyway -- I'm sick of nasm ... ron - To unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo(a)freiburg.linux.de with 'unsubscribe openbios' in the body of the message

Hi, does Open Bios will catch the i386 irq handles? if it will, i would ask what is the best path to make AROS (www.aros.org) to run as standalone OS on i386 and maybe use the Open Bios as background to all the boot sequence? PS: i have visited the open bios HP, but i am little confused about what is beeing coded (on what they are working now)
Documentation on 0xcfe IO port?

Hello Ron, You put up the following code and I am wondering about the CFE port, in particular where is there some documentation on this. generic_init: PORT_80 0xd0 ; now the fun begins. ; turn on the dram and wait a while (this from the intel book) mov dx, 0xcf8 mov eax, 0x80000074 out dx, eax mov dx, 0xcfe ; turn power and and set the nop bit too. mov al, 0x30 out dx, al I have the interrupt and port information from Ron Brown and there is a reference to PORT 0CF8-0CFF as being used for PCI Configuration Mechanism 1. When I look through all the Intel documentation I only see 0CF8 and 0CFC referenced. Do you have some more documentation on this?

Problem with 256K BIOS build
Hello, I have the OpenBIOS working for both 64K and 128K builds. However, when I try to do the 256K I get nothing. I came across some documentation that claims that "32KB of BIOS expansion range from 0C0000H to 0C8000H is typically reserved for the video BIOS expansion ROM" (source is M-Systems DiskOnChip 2000 data sheet). If this is true then how do you fit the 256K bios in the system as we will need the range from C0000H all the way up to FFFFH and manage to avoid a collision with the video BIOS expansion ROM. I am using loadbios for testing and have sucked out the BIOS that comes with my system. This works fine. However, the OpenBIOS build of 256 doesn't. Any ideas on what we need to do?

'Shocked' French rosé producers slam EU label concession
Graham Tearse March 26, 2009
French winemakers, outraged at proposed new EU regulations to allow rosé wines to be made from a mix of whites and reds, have won the right to carry a special designation on labels indicating that their rosé wines are made from 'traditional' production methods.
But the concession by the EU Commission, announced 24 March, did little to placate the French producers.
'This is entirely insufficient,' Marc Rolley, head of the ODG Côtes-de-Provence winemakers association, the largest representing French rosé producers, told decanter.com.
'It still allows the mixing of reds and whites and it is against this that we are opposed. We don't make a sub-product. The fact that we have to justify ourselves is shocking and is standing the problem on its head,' he added.
France is the world's premier rosé-maker. It accounts for 10% of global production and 28% of all European production, ahead of Italy. French rosé wines are traditionally made from the brief maceration, or alternatively the pressing, of red grapes.
While the method is not unique to France, the process of rosé winemaking has been the object of considerable investment, chiefly among the country's southern vineyards, over recent years. 'The EU will now undo 30 years of efforts we have made in hoisting rosé into the category of noble wines,' said Mr. Rolley.
The Commission is due to approve new regulations on 27 April allowing EU winemakers to produce increasingly popular rosé from mixing whites with reds, a practice commonly used among producers in other regions.

I had to write this tutorial. I have seen many developers going rogue over chatbot and creating dumb chatbot without proper chatbot design or flow and making them dumb chatbots. They only focus on use case. That's it. So if you are only enabling the use case, then you are simply creating an app. Just without buttons and text box. So what is the use of it? Well this article is all about how not to create dumb chatbots. Being in chatbots, AI and ML for two years and half (Not much experience but I do carry experience of enterprise level development) here are the top five common mistakes which developers generally make while making the chatbot.
Sounds idiotic but it's true. New developers are caged within the use case. You will say that the chatbot should do what it was intended to do at first place. Fine but what about the fail overs? Situations where it has to handle the user. This is what makes a dumb chatbot. Apart from giving prefixed responses, the chatbot should have an aura. By aura I mean that it shouldn't be too humanly neither should it be too robotic. You have to think how user might be using your chatbot. For ex: Lets consider chatbot for a Pharmacy store. The User can not only enquire for medicine, but it may ask for address, phone number, timing etc.
So the other part of the job is not in the use case. But it definitely has to be taken into planning and thinking as it is increasing sales and productivity of the Pharmacy Owner.
It might not sound like an issue, but is really irritating as a user. The bank which I use recently launched its own chatbot. I started playing with it. It was not even able to process the information. Like I asked about if I can get account statement, and the bot replied – "Sorry for having trouble. I don't know that.". Second time I asked "Can I get a soda?" and I got the same response. I don't say that you have to create multiple fail over responses for multiple situations. Analyzing the situation and writing responses is not a big development. I can be done easily for few use cases.
This is what irritates me the most. Developers would mostly focus on the "User Interface", "Colors", "icons", "typography" etc. We need to understand that people are not familiar with your chatbot. Let's say for ex : You created a chatbot for Supermarket. I download it and start to chat with it. How do I know what to type. You will answer that, you will create a "training video" or some sliders showing how to use bot. But let me tell you, once you see the sliders, users won't go again. Users are lazy. So instead of creating videos etc, suggest user in the chat in the place holder. As soon as user starts typing, suggest placeholder on the chat window. It will help to user to learn fast. And you will see a good change in learning curve in a positive way.
Yes, even that is a huge problem. Libraries like AIML provide a hell lot of responses for chatbot. It is good too. But using entire library is nuts. Offcourse we want to include general responses. Like good evening, thank you etc. But not everything. The more libraries and responses you use for chatbot, the more it gets farther away from actually understanding user. Make iterations about what the chatbot is about and related general response. For ex : I will not ask my banking chatbot to go on a date with me. Though we can add some funny responses, but banking is a serious domain. And users pretty much just want to do what they are there to do.
That's it folks ! These were my takes on chatbot development at initial level. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial Do share the article if you liked it. Feel free to add anything in the comment section.

A lot of people will need a way to make it on time for scheduled flights. In cities, this could be a problem that is solved by those outfits managed by airports themselves. This is something which provides a vital service for those who are busy and have need to keep their appointments relevant to the flights they are going to take.
For air terminals, the concern is to have their passengers present and on time for their flights. The Miami airport shuttle answers this need efficiently for the Miami and Ft. Lauderdale areas, which is composed of cities that are within a short radius served by the Miami International Airport. This terminal is one of the busiest in the countries.
Folks from as far away as the other side of the metropolis will find it hard to negotiate traffic on their own vehicles. And taxis tend to get caught up in traffic, while the shuttle has its own system of going through express lanes which the airport management has negotiated for it. Thus, any bus in the system can travel quickly through the streets of the metropolis.
There are many ways which enables people to commute the distance to the airport. But the shuttle is probably the most reliable of all, and folks here will take it often. There are many locations throughout the metro for stations to this service. One is located in Fort Lauderdale while others are found strategically placed to service the entire community.
The frequent flyers will know how this works, and these are among the most benefited by the buses. The buses themselves are not large, small enough to go at high speeds through the highways. These are highly maneuverable and modern, with many amenities that make the ride comfortable and convenient.
The service has worked for millions of passengers through the years. And today it has been revamped with things like WiFi and music, and all of these units have AC. These have distinctive marks on them and they are easily recognizable, so that folks here know that the units have urgent and priority access relevant to time schedules.
Flights and airlines do not wait for late passengers, so the need is to arrive before or on time for the boarding process. Without the shuttle, there would have been so many passengers not able to make it to their flights. This is something which have provide so much vital services for the airline riding public.
This system works for the airport itself and is part of the services offered by the management here. And its units are well maintained and clean and able to make the distances traveled that much more comfortable. In fact, despite the urgency of this commute, most passengers can sit back and relax and wait for a ride to arrive.
At the airport there are special slots for these, and processing for boarding is actually made easier when you travel on the shuttle bus. Because it has priority access that can take passengers direct to the terminal. This makes it all the more in demand for those who need to ration their time.

In the Pacific Northwest, many people are turning on to a way of getting cash quickly that is safe and reliable. It will also be an easy thing to process and involves no extra fees or hidden charges. Like traditional credit processes, these have the same interests and payment periods that might pertain, but the preliminary loan process is much shorter.
There is no need for a lot of requirements which may be needed for traditional lending. Hard money lenders Seattle are those who can provide loans to people who have any number of what are called hard assets. Their parameters are much like the pawnshop businesses in these terms, because the same shops actually receive and process much the same items.
For the lenders these will be collateral for the loans, and it can range from watches to valuable heirloom jewelry. In fact, any kind of collectible will do, and you merely have to register your set of hard assets with the lenders to make the loan. The process, as said, is quick and will have less requirements than traditional bank loans.
Wait time is much reduced, and like pawnshops, you can walk during office hours and come out several hours later with cash in hand. This thing can require you to talk and deal with the management beforehand. But as said, there is no long wait period, and the contact you do can actually be done the day before.
It will not last long, and this is a thing which is that makes for the best processes for those who need them. These are folks who may consider banks and traditional lenders very hard people to deal with. Because banks process smaller loans and bigger ones in much the same way, and with very strict or rigorous measures that may apply.
Most of the things which can be turned into liquid cash are things that you have on you personally. Or they might be things that are in your home, perhaps some antique or painting which has been in your family for a long time. While it becomes collateral, the lender will have it itemized reliant on how you pay the dues.
Again, payment is much like the traditional process, and because of this, the grace periods actually work much better. This means that there is less hassle in getting the loan while the periods for payment can be longer. It is a winning formula for the many consumers that need this kind of loan when dealing with fast investment methods.
The urgent need for cash that is readily answered is something that will be more reliable here. And the items you have will not actually come into the possession of the company. They simply have tor register it and wait for you to finish the payments.
These are things which have become most wanted for this city. It can take very little time for anyone, and these are reliable services which have a way of creating an atmosphere that is conducive to business and like concerns for individuals who want to invest but can be more leery of banks and traditional credit.

The first and foremost thing that must be considered while choosing a cycling jersey is its quality. Even if you are not a professional bicyclist, a good quality jersey can give you the finest results and make exercising more pleasant and fruitful.
It is very important to make sure that the cycling jersey is neither too loose nor too tight.Like any other exercise clothing, cycling jerseys are also are designed to fit the body tightly and comfortably so that one can make proper movements during the workout.
Excessively tight jerseys aren't generally comfortable. And if the jersey is too loose, it can act as a hindrance in proper movement of the body. So you should buy a cycling shirt that fits best according to your body type.
Design of the jersey also plays a very important role in proper fitting of a garment. If you are not comfortable with the design, you can also go for custom cycling jerseys.
The material of cycling jersey should be breathable; It should also be able to absorb moisture and other perspiration from your body and release the same in the air. This property helps in maintaining the body temperature of a bicyclist during a workout session.
Generally, jerseys are made up of modified synthetic elements and fibers like lycra, polyester and polyester microfiber.
Making an impression is what a business card is all about. It aims to convey a lot on one small piece of cardstock – your business ethos, your professionalism, the nature of your business, all in very few words and images. Designing a business card that really catches the eye is essential. Pure Metal Cards may be unique.
There are lots of printing methods that actually increase how visually successful your card is and among them is foil stamping.
Printing with transparency is a means of accentuating certain pieces of your layout so that it catches the light and stands outside. It is sometimes traditional silver or gold, or some funky glowing color to complement your organization branding.
If you're designing a business card which may use foil stamping it will help to understand the procedure, to which you may use it efficiently.
To start with a metallic die is cut into the required layout. If a couple of different colors must be used a distinct die for every color is made. The dies are then warmed and stamped with sufficient pressure on the thin layer of foil to seal it on the paper or card. The subsequent effect leaves a slightly raised impression on the card reminiscent of engraving or letterpress.
Nowadays there is a vast selection of foils to pick from: the very simple and effectual gold and silver foils are combined by a rainbow of metallic colors. There are even patterned foils or the exact powerful and subtle apparent transparency which simply adds sheen to the increased impression.
Most of the people have a normal idea that losing weight is not an easy process. Trust me, it is easy! Anyone can lose weight by some simple surgery. Now may be you are feeling exciting to know the treatment. Well, Intake low calories food rather than high calories and do regular routine exercise. These two are selected steps to cut back off extra calories on your body. Here' am gonna be discuss concerning how it helps to lose weight.

"A polished audio drama gem. Essential listening!" Jesse Willis — www.sffaudio.com
Before Blake;
Before the Seven;
Before the Rebellion began…
BLAKE'S 7: THE EARLY YEARS is a thrilling new prequel series of stories, also broadcast on BBC Radio 7, exploring the origins of key Blake's 7 characters prior to them meeting rebel leader, Roj Blake, as revealed in the B7 PRODUCTIONS' Blake's 7: The Audio Adventures.
"This superior prequel series mines the back-stories of the titular characters. Blake's 7: The Early Years is intelligent social Science Fiction." – SFFAudio.com
A rebellion is born in many places, in the riot-torn London of the 23rd century, in the laboratories and dreaming spires of Oxford University, in the dangerously untamed forests of Auron and the asteroid fields of neutral space. BLAKE'S 7: THE EARLY YEARS takes you to when the seeds of rebellion against the Federation really began.
The stories feature the established characters Avon, and then Vila & Gan (in two stories written by Ben Aaronovitch), Jenna (written by Simon Guerrier), Travis (written by James Swallow), Cally (written by Marc Platt) , Zen written by James Swallow) and of course the series wouldn't be complete without a story (written by James Swallow) exploring the origins of the rebel's arch-nemesis Supreme Commander Servalan who we meet as a young, ambitious, cadet officer with 'family connections'.

OBJECTIVE: We sought to examine the intra- and interobserver variability in measuring the cochlear duct length (CDL) from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images versus computed tomography (CT) images using an otological surgical planning software that uses measurements of the basal turn diameter and cochlear width to estimate the CDL. PATIENTS: Twenty-one adult cochlear implant patients with preoperative MRI and CT images. INTERVENTION: Three fellowship-trained neurotologists served as the raters in the study. One rater measured the CDL using preoperative CT scans to serve as the benchmark. Two of the raters measured the CDL on preoperative MRI scans. One rater also remeasured the scans using MRI images after a period of 1 week to assess intraobserver variability. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Intraclass correlational coefficients were calculated to assess for intra- and interobserver agreement. RESULTS: The mean CDL measured from the CT scans was 32.7 ± 2.0 mm (range 29.4 - 37.6 mm). The mean difference between the raters when measuring the CDL using MRI scans was -0.15 ± 2.1 mm (range -3.2 to 4.3 mm). The intraclass correlational coefficients for inter-rater reliability of CDL determination using MRI scans was judged as fair to excellent (0.68; 95% CI 0.41-0.84). The intrarater reliability of CDL determination using MRI scans was judged at fair to excellent (0.73; 95% CI 0.491-0.866). CONCLUSION: We demonstrate that a validated otological surgical planning software for estimating the CDL preoperatively had comparable performance using MRI scans versus the gold-standard CT scans.
