With a mission that includes promoting stewardship, preservation, and protection of the environment, the Hau`oli Mau Loa Foundation (HMLF) wanted the renovation of its offices to be as environmentally responsible as possible. Hawaii Architecture LLP worked to make certain that the 4,285-square-foot office interior retained original historical features while implementing efficient and responsible building methods.
This tenant improvement project encompassed a complete interior renovation of the first floor and mezzanine space in the historic Dillingham Transportation Building. The Dillingham Transportation Building, originally constructed in 1929, is located on a busy intersection in downtown Honolulu, Hawaii, and is listed on the National Historic Register.
The client requested an open, inviting, and collaborative office space that was flexible enough to allow the Foundation to grow. The mezzanine portion of the space is currently subleased.
One of the most challenging, unique, and rewarding aspects of this project was that everyone involved in the project shared a common goal: showing that a historic renovation could be done with efficient and sustainable concepts in mind. Key successes were realized through an equally persistent focus to reduce energy loads and provide responsible construction materials and methods within the constraints of a building on the Historic Register. The Foundation's office retained many of the original Italian Renaissance/Mediterranean Revival inspired building features such as the interior ceiling treatment, column capitols, exterior entry doors, and period-specific window frames and hardware. The existing interior square footage remained the same and the bulk of the interior walls were preserved. Interior walls along the entry corridor parallel to the exterior window walls were replaced with translucent surfaces to promote transfer of light deep into the space.
The process realized a design which reduced lighting energy by 55% below the ASHRAE 90.1 baseline, as well as a 29% reduction in mechanical energy and a 43% reduction in water use. The team also reused 43% of the non-structural architectural components, creating an impressive transformation from the original space that allows natural light to propagate through the space as deeply as possible.
Located in the center of downtown Honolulu, HMLF's parent property provides a density of 460,000 square feet per acre. With an average surrounding density of over 130,000 square feet per acre and an amicable climate, the project locale is an optimal setting for providing amenities within a short walking distance. The client dedicated space to provide bike storage and shower facilities within the office, providing even more transportation flexibility to its employees. The downtown connectivity of the HMLF offices allows easy access by bike, bus, foot, and car.


Is there a way to prevent a .jsp page from loading until after the entire page has been processed?
Here is the problem: Our web based app accesses a data base, and sometimes when there is a lot of data being returned, parts of the page (including images with links) appear before all the data has been processed and displayed. Sometimes impatient users will click these links which require data being returned. This really messes things up.
Follow conventional accepted practices and perform all your processing up-front in a servlet controller which forwards to a JSP page to render the view after all the processing is complete.
I think you're talking about preventing the output of a jsp until it is finished, not the loading. What you're describing is a form of auto-flushing. In the alternative, you can call out.flush() manually in order to send data to the user while processing is still going on.
In other cases, flush() is called automatically depending on the server settings such as if the buffer becomes too large or the page has finished loading. You can disable this feature by setting the page context autoFlush parameter to false. That should solve you're problem but you may need to manually call flush at the very end of processing of the JSP to re-enable the flush.
can i apply Ajax in jsp pages and how ?
Is this thread dump indicating tomcat is low on memory?

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa begins constitutional process for appointment of caretaker CM
The constitutional process for the appointment of a caretaker chief minister started after the dissolution of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly.
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor Ghulam Ali directed Chief Minister Mahmood Khan and Opposition Leader Akram Khan Durrani to suggest a name for the caretaker chief minister through consultation.
Opposition leader and Chief Minister Mahmood Khan will give three names for the caretaker chief minister, if there is no consensus on any one name between the two within three days, then the matter of the selection of the chief minister will go to the parliamentary committee.
As per reports, the speaker of the provincial assembly will form a parliamentary party of six members while the committee will have three members each from the government and the opposition.
If the committee did not agree on one name for the caretaker chief minister within three days, then the matter will go to the Election Commission after which the Election Commission will select one of the proposed names and announce it as caretaker chief minister and the caretaker chief minister will perform the duties till the election of the new chief minister.
Earlier in 2018, the election commission had appointed Justice (retd) Dost Muhammad as caretaker chief minister after the then Chief Minister Pervez Khattak and the leader of the opposition did not agree on a single name for the caretaker chief minister.

On January 18, the U.S. National Under-18 Team played a game against Waterloo during their annual Stars Wars Night sporting Darth Vader jerseys. The sweaters were hilariously awesome.
While this was USA Hockey's National Team Development Program's third straight season hosting Star Wars night, the jerseys weren't just for fun. Game-worn jerseys were auctioned off online and raised over $4,100 to help C.S. Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor, Mich.
All proceeds benefited C.S. Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor, Mich. Under the umbrella of the University of Michigan Hospital and Health Centers, C.S. Mott Children's Hospital is consistently ranked among the nation's top pediatric hospitals.
Team USA and C.S. Mott Children's Hospital would like to sincerely thank all those who bid. The money raised will go a long way to helping make a difference in a young child's life.
Fourteen of the 26 auctioned jerseys were worn by players that were highlighted in the NHL Central Scouting's midterm ranking and could potentially be selected in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft. Among these was projected first-round pick and Team USA star Sonny Milano. Also projected to be drafted high in 2015 draft, Jack Eichel's jersey was up for bid.
I have to admit, I'm kind of disappointed I don't have one of these jerseys in my collection… The fact that Darth Vader is basically fist pumping makes it all the more amazing.

Detailed record for Additional 9381
Title Bodmin Gospels (St Petroc Gospels); records of grants of manumission in Old English and Latin added on blank leaves and in margins (ff. 1, 8, 13, 141)
Origin France, N.W. (Brittany)
Date Last quarter of the 9th century to 1st quarter of the 11th century
Language Latin and English
Script Caroline minuscule
Decoration Decorated canon tables in brown and red (ff. 9r-13v). A frame with five roundels, probably intended for a Majestas composition (f. 108v). Initials with penwork decoration in red and brown (ff. 14,14v, 50, 74,109). Initials, rubrics and running titles in red. Drawing of a man's head in profile (f. 75).
Dimensions in mm 260 x 170 (210 x 115)
Official foliation ff. 141+ i (f. 13* is a blank parchment leaf and ff. 1 and 141 are parchment flyleaves + 2 unfoliated parchment flyleaves at the beginning + 1 unfoliated paper flyleaf and 3 parchment flyleaves at the end)
Form Parchment codex
Binding The boards and endleaves are probably from the 12th century. The upper board has a deep central recess and both boards have the remains of a kermes-red dyed cover skin of uncertain date. Refurbished in the late 19th century, when the box was probably made.
Provenance The Benedictine (later Augustinian) priory of St Petroc, Bodmin by the end of the 10th century: records of public manumissions at the high altar of the church were added in Anglo-Saxon minuscule in the 2nd half of the 10th and the 11th centuries. They include the names of three Bishops of Cornwall: Comoere, Wulfsige and Burhwold (and possibly a fourth, Athelgard, which is partially illegible). Some records are erased but 46 remain, dated 941 to 1043 (ff. 1, 8, 13 and 141).
Thomas Rodd the younger (b. 1796, d. 1849), London bookseller. Bought by the British Museum from him in May 1833.
Notes The Gospels were copied in c. 900 and the text displays Irish variants with interpolation of Mass formulae common in Breton Gospel books (see Cohen and Teviotdale 1999).
The punctuation is unusual, and is similar to that found in Royal 1 A xviii: 2 dots and a comma (see McGurk and Szerwiniak 1996).
Anglo-Saxon neums have been added at the top margin of versicles and responses at the beginning of the Gospel of Luke (ff. 77v-78).
A partially finished frame with five roundels and interlace panels (f. 108v) was probably the outline for a Christ in Majesty composition, as in the Landevennec Gospels (see Wormald 1977).
51 records of grants of manumission at St Petroc's Bodmin, in Latin and Old English, added between the 2nd quarter of the10th century and the 1st quarter of the 11th century on blank leaves in Anglo-Saxon minuscule (ff. 1, 8,141) and in blank spaces and margins (ff. 2-7v, 13,133v). Some entries now erased (ff. 6v, 108r-v).
X-rays of both boards are in London, British Library Manuscript Facsimile 800.

Stan Hywet Lagoon Water Quality Project
Stan Hywet's landscape architect, Warren Manning, envisioned and created a one-acre body of water, from the quarry scarring, at the second highest elevation in the State of Ohio. He was a master at seamlessly integrating his designs into nature. It took six years to demonstrate his vision which was enjoyed by the family all the way up to Mrs. Seiberling's passing in 1946.
During the late 1970's grounds keeper William Snyder cleared away the overgrowth and reinterpreted the lagoon area and bridges. It is not yet understood why but through these efforts by 1997 the water level of the lagoon was seven feet below the historic water level with a very poor water quality. Through the restoration of the duck pond, four years later, 100-feet below the lagoon a pump station was created to restore the water level. The historic water level was restored; however, we then discovered the water being pumped 100-feet up hill was leaking out and returning back to the duck pond as fast as it was being pumped. Pumps designed to restore the water lost through evaporation now had to operate continuously to maintain the water level.
In 2008 with the assistance of research studies conducted by the Summit Soil and Water Conservation District, Stan Hywet Hall & Gardens determined that the lagoon requires a comprehensive restoration to return the area to its original design and functionality.
The conceptual plan developed is comprised of the following components:
(1) Drain each pond of the lagoon;
(2) Excavate 30 + inches of sediment and debris;
(3) Repair any breaches in the core wall that retains the water in the west Lagoon;
(4) Line the pond basins with Bentonite clay mats;
(5) Reopen vistas overlooking the National Park. Restore plant material and landscape features to the lagoon; and rediscover and restore the pathway system and bridges around the lagoon;
These project components, as a whole, will complete Manning's and the Seiberling's vision for the north end of the estate.
Work on the lagoons began in March 2020.

Liddabit Sweets - Brooklyn, NY
Tuesday, April 22, 2014 / Published in Featured News, Success Stories
Liz Gutman and Jen King developed a prototype for a small-batch candy manufacturing business in 2007, when both were attending the French Culinary Institute in New York City. Two years later their Brooklyn business, Liddabit Sweets, earned a vendor slot at the Brooklyn Flea Smorgasburg, a well-known artisanal flea market.
Almost immediately, the homemade candies and sweets began generating buzz from NY Magazine, Food & Wine magazine, The Today Show and other media outlets. The recognition generated the candy maker's first wholesale customers. Because of its growing brand recognition, word-of-mouth advertising and in-house marketing, the roster of accounts swelled to 60, including such notable retailers as Whole Foods, Murray's Cheese Shop and Brooklyn Larder.
The problem: Growth was becoming more difficult for Liddabit Sweets. The candy maker has moved four times to accommodate increased business, and it currently shares its leased kitchen space in Brooklyn with other food manufacturers.
"It poses a lot of different challenges. We can't access the space when we need to, which limits our growth," Gutman said.
Business continued to increase, and the two founders knew it was time to move again. After being rejected by traditional lenders, Gutman and King turned to NYBDC.
"We had been turned down by three different banks. We couldn't even get equipment loans," Gutman said. "If not for NYBDC, we would have had to pursue private investors. That would mean giving up shares of the company, which we aren't eager to do."
NYBDC issued a $321,200 loan through its new NYC Food Manufacturers Growth Fund that allows Liddabit Sweets to move production to a 2,250-square-foot facility at 220 36th St. in Brooklyn, one block from its existing kitchen space.
The targeted growth fund is a joint venture with the New York City Economic Development Corp. and Goldman Sachs' Urban Investment Group. It will provide up to $10 million in affordable growth financing for New York City's small, food-manufacturing sector, a critical piece of the city's economy.
Qualifying businesses may use the loans to buy equipment to increase efficiency and production, hire workers to expand production, or purchase inventory.
Gutman expects Liddabit Sweets to triple production once the new manufacturing facility begins operating in May. The company is using the growth fund loan to fit-up the location and buy equipment and inventory, and for working capital.
The increased production will feed Liddabit Sweets' first retail location, a 270-foot shop inside Chelsea Market in Manhattan that the chocolatier began occupying in September 2013.
"Chelsea Market has been the cause of a huge jump in revenue for us," said Gutman, who noted that sales from Liddabit Sweets' first retail store have increased the company's revenue more than 30 percent.
Liddabit Sweets currently employs nine. The new production facility will feature the company's second retail outlet, adding one more opportunity to increase revenue. At least two employees will be added, one for production and the other for retail sales, with more to follow as production grows.

Despite unprecedented efforts to develop COVID-19 vaccines in record time amid the global pandemic, SARS-CoV-2 continues to spread rapidly with the emergence of new variants, such as Delta and Omicron, making the development of new therapeutic strategies critically important.
Preliminary studies early in the pandemic found evidence that countries with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination programs, which fights tuberculosis, could be associated with a reduced number and/or severity of COVID-19 cases. While clinical trials are ongoing to further investigate, a University of Houston computational biology researcher is reporting cross reaction between the two illnesses that might help explain what could be driving immunity brought on by the BCG vaccination.
"The protection against SARS-CoV-2 induced by BCG vaccination may be mediated by cross-reactive T cell lymphocytes, which recognize peptides displayed by class I Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA-I) on the surface of infected cells," reports Dinler Amaral Antunes, assistant professor of computational biology and a corresponding author of the work published in the journal Frontiers in Immunology.
The researchers from UH, Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul and Rice University implemented a large-scale computational screening to identify potential targets with biochemical similarities between the two illnesses.
T cell lymphocytes develop from stem cells and help protect the body from infection. T cell responses to SARS-CoV-2 are vital for helping resolve viral infections and protecting against reinfection by providing long-lasting immunity. Peptides are chains of amino acids connected to one another that can be derived from proteins of the virus, as well as from proteins of the host. HLAs are receptors that display these peptides to the immune system.
The research team screened over 13.5 million possible cross-reactive peptide pairs from BCG and SARS-CoV-2. The analysis produced a large dataset of cross-reactive clusters, which ultimately led to the identification of 40 peptide pairs with potential cross-reactivity with BCG peptides.
The top 40 list includes SARS-CoV-2-derived peptides GEAANFCAL, GEVITFDNL and FIAGLIAIV which have been independently shown to induce T cell response, Interferon Gamma (INF-γ) production and lymphocyte proliferation in COVID-19 patients. INF-γ is a critical component of immunity against viral and some bacterial infections.
"In addition, multiple peptides from our top 40 list have been reported to induce T cell activation in recent studies analyzing aspects of cellular immunity in COVID-19 patients," said Antunes. "The development of peptide-based vaccines targeting coronaviruses and presenting cross-reactivity with existing pools of memory T cells, could be an interesting strategy to complement and extend the protection conferred by existing COVID-19 vaccines."
The research team includes co-author André Fonseca, a postdoctoral researcher working in the Antunes lab; Ana Paula D. De Souza, Tiago C. Ferreto, Renata F. Tarabini, Rafael Bele and Felipe Rubin of Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil; and Lydia E. Kavraki, Mauricio Menegatti Rigo of Rice University.
This study is part of a special topic collection at Frontiers in Immunology, focused on T-cell cross-reactivity. Antunes is one of the guest editors of this collection.

Happy Friday! That wasn't such a long week, huh? Hope this week finds you in full holiday swing and ready to enjoy what the weekend has in store. It's time for another Feature Friday here at TBB. Today we are introducing you to Michael Ann, who blogs over at Out and Back! She's a good friend of The Blended Blog and we're so happy to have her today! Read on to get to know more about this talented lady!
I live near Savannah, Georgia with my sweet husband, Gene. We've been married 27 years! Thirteen of those years were in Europe thanks to his career in the Air Force. (Yeah, that was pretty groovy!) We have two adult children. Our daughter, Cassandra, lives with us, and our son, Ethan, is stationed (Air Force) near Anchorage, Alaska. Add a few cats, a dog, three totally different work schedules, and a whole lot of crazy, and that's our family life!
I'm a part-time admin/financial secretary for a church in our town. (Not the church we go to; a different church. It works best that way!) I work there three mornings a week. During the spring and summer I also work as a consultant for Sonlight Curriculum. I get to travel around the country to homeschool conventions and talk to families about homeschooling!
I can't describe ANYTHING in three words, so I asked for input from some special folks! My daughter says: Outgoing. Bubbly. Enthusiastic. My sister said: Gracious. Chef extraordinaire. (But she is currently on pain meds, so take that for what it's worth!) My mom adds: Strong. (As in strong willed?!? Hmmmmm.) We are all rather wordy, so there's another word to describe me: Wordy!
Story. I'm all about story. I like telling stories, and I like reading them. Since I enjoy writing and I was looking for something to exercise my brain, blogging seemed a good thing to do.
Reading! I love to read! Cooking and baking too. And traveling, camping (in a tent), and kayaking. That's why my blog focuses on these things! I love them, and I enjoy talking about them.
What is the title of the last book you read? Would you recommend it?
I recently finished the novel Still Alice by Lisa Genova, and I highly recommend it. It is exquisitely written. This book tells the story of a woman who is diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease, so it may not be a good fit for some people due to triggers about all that comes with this horrid disease. In a lighter vein, I just read Serafina and the Black Cape and Serafina and the Twisted Staff by Robert Beatty. They are Young AdultFiction, and they were great, suspenseful reads!
Oooh! That's a hard one! I really enjoy both! Cleaning up AFTER I cook is the thing I do NOT like. I'm a messy cook like my grandmother was, much to my mother's dismay! (She really did try to teach me to clean up as I go.) I feel compelled to say that Grandma might've been messy, but she was an amazing cook. Draw your own inferences!
Autumn, for sure! Here in Coastal Georgia we have to wait forever for the temperature to drop enough for us to wear autumn clothes, but then we get to wear them through the winter. I enjoy layering and having fun with color, textures, and patterns. And of course Autumn style means BOOTS! Those are always fun. Autumn colors are the most flattering colors for me, and autumn styles allow me to more easily work with my body shape. I feel the most confident and pretty in autumn fashion.
Loved Getting to know you better, Michael Ann!

Thoreau had Walden Pond. Kerouac had Big Sur. Rayland Baxter? He had an old rubber band factory in Franklin, Kentucky, and it suited him just fine. As one of the hardest-touring artists on the road today, Baxter's spent most of his professional life in transit, but ever since he was a kid, he dreamed of creative seclusion someplace lonely and isolated, somewhere he could sit still and devote his every waking hour to writing without interruption or distraction. When the opportunity finally presented itself in late 2016, the Nashville native pounced.
By the time Baxter emerged, he'd penned more than 50 tunes and crafted a detailed blueprint for his spectacular new album, 'Wide Awake.' Deftly produced by Butch Walker, the record infuses Baxter's easygoing, soulful sound with British Invasion melodies and rock and roll swagger, marrying lean, muscular songwriting with adventurous, inventive arrangements. It's a cutting, insightful collection, one that takes a sardonic view the violence, greed, and division that seem to define the modern American landscape. Rather than point a finger, though, the music holds up a mirror, offering a sober reflection of the times thoughtfully bundled in bright, infectious hooks. There's no judgment here, only keen observation, and Baxter implicates himself as much as his neighbor through it all.
Baxter's built a career on capturing those sorts of timeless, deeply human sentiments, bringing colorful characters to vivid life with equal parts humor and pathos. His debut album, 'feathers & fishhooks,' was a critical hit praised by Interviewfor its "well-worn maturity," whileNPRdescribed "Yellow Eyes," the lead single from his 2015 follow-up, 'Imaginary Man,' as "close-to-perfect." Stereogumdubbed the record "an impeccable sophomore break-out," and Rolling Stonehailed its pairing of "whimsical narrative with often deceptively complex arrangements." The music earned Baxter festival appearances from Bonnaroo to Newport Folk in addition to tours with an astonishing array of artists, including Jason Isbell, The Lumineers, Kacey Musgraves, The Head and The Heart, Shakey Graves, Lauryn Hill, and Grace Potter.
It was with that newfound sense of self that Baxter entered Thunder Sound, the abandoned rubber band factory-turned-studio in the cornfields of Kentucky that would become his home for three months of intensive soul searching and songwriting.
When it came time to record his mountain of new songs, Baxter relocated to Santa Monica, California, where he wrangled an all-star studio band that included Dr. Dog's Erick Slick on drums, Butch Walker on bass, Cage The Elephant's Nick Bockrath on guitar, and piano wizard Aaron Embry (Elliott Smith, Brian Eno) on keys. A producer and artist equally at home working with massive pop stars and indie stalwarts, Walker immediately embraced Baxter's vision for the album, and the result is a sunny and altogether charming collection. Scratch beneath the surface, though, and you'll find it's populated by a cast of characters who project a vision of the good life as they struggle to keep it all together behind closed doors. On the punchy 'Casanova,' the singer reckons with debts he knows he'll never be able to repay,while the volatile "Amelia Baker" charts the narrator's descent into near-madness as he pines for a starlet perpetually out of reach.
While 'Wide Awake' offers plenty of broad, wide-angle musings, some of its most arresting moments arrive bundled inside deeply personal memories and snapshots. The heartfelt "Everything To Me" is a tender tribute to family (Baxter's father Bucky, who played pedal steel with Bob Dylan and Ryan Adams among others, contributes to the record), and the laidback "Let It All Go Man" is a reminder that there's beauty in simply being alive.
That empty South American beach may have been a world away from the rubber band factory in Kentucky, but for Baxter, the effect was the same. The solitude offered a chance to observe, to reflect, to grow, to appreciate, and most importantly, to write.
Designer & musician from Atlanta, Georgia.
Mattiel was born an only child in Georgia and grew up working on her mother's farm. This rural, isolated space gave her room to grow and experiment with a wide range of interests. As an adolescent, she found refuge in her mother's limited record collection, which included several albums by 60's psyche-pop troubadours Donovan, Peter Paul and Mary, and the commercial yet experimental pop of The Monkees. More recent influences are Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Andre 3000, Marc Bolan, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, The Staple Singers and Jack White.
After moving to Atlanta, Mattiel started collaborating with Randy Michael and Jonah Swilley, and took what she knew about constructing visual design and applied that methodology to writing her music.

Sant Martí de la Móra és una església situada a tramuntana del nucli urbà de Viladasens (Gironès), al costat mateix del camí que porta al mas de la Mora. És una obra protegida com a bé cultural d'interès local. La capella és romànica modificada i pot datar del  o inicis del XII.

Història
Degué ser sempre una capella de veïnat dependent de la parroquial de Sant Vicenç de Viladasens. L'any 1046, el lloc és esementat en la venda d'un alou situat a la parròquia de Viladasens, el qual limitava pel costat de llevant amb la «villa Mora» i amb el puig d'Ermemir. Del casal de la Mora hi ha notícies a la darreria del , que passà a ser possessió de l'Almoina del Pa de la seu de Girona. L'any 1382, el bisbe Bertran de Mont-rodon amortitzà per 50 sous un terç del delme de Viladasens que Jaume de soler, prepòsit de l'Almoina, havia comprat a Dalmau Otger juntament amb la casa d'«ipsa Maura» de Viladasens.

Arquitectura

Edifici d'una sola nau, cobert amb volta de canó i capçada a llevant per un absis semicircular més estret que s'obre a través d'un arc parcialment refet amb obra de ceràmica. La volta absidal arrenca d'un senzilla motllura, mentre que la de la nau és llisa i totalment encalcinada, com els murs. A l'absis hi ha una finestra centrada de doble esqueixada i una altra d'una sola esqueixada que semblen originals. Al mur de ponent s'obre La porta rectangular amb llinda i un arc de descàrrega de mig punt extradossat per un guardapols molt acusat, damunt del qual hi ha un ull de bou i un campanar d'espadanya d'un sol forat que, com l'ull de bou correspon a una reforma; són els únics elements tardans de l'edifici. L'aparell és de carreus petits sense escairar, disposats formant filades més o menys regulars. A les cantonades hi ha pedres més grans, que també es troben a la paret de ponent, al voltant de l'ull de bou, formant les finestres i a la part alta del mur. Sembla que l'edifici pot correspondre a dues etapes constructivies d'època medieval. Per les seves formes constructives, l'església de Sant Martí de la Móra pot considerar-se una obra rural bastida dins el , seguint tecnologies arcaiques, i reformada o potser acabada dins el mateix segle amb parament molt més elaborat.

Relleus esculpits
Són a la cornisa a l'interior de l'absis. A la part central hi ha un personatge ajagut d'uns 15 cm de llarg. A la banda meridional de la cornisa hi ha un relleu molt més petit, escantonat. No es pot saber que podia representar. La datació d'aquests detalls d'escultura tan rústica se situaria a la mateixa època de l'absis, primera meitat del . Sens dubte, de la mà d'un artífex popular.

Q: Return the row number if value is between two values in excel If I have a lookup table with a range of number (Min and Max) in two columns. ON the second sheet, it contains the numbers (1-100). And I'd like to lookup the row number from the lookup table. How can I do?

A: Consider:
=INDEX(A$2:A$11,MATCH(D2,B$2:B$11,1))

A: Assuming that Band is in the A-Column, Min in the B-Column and so on and the headers in the first row, put this in F2 and drag down as necessary:
{=INDEX($A$2:$A$11,MATCH(1,(E2<=$C$2:$C$11)*(E2>=$B$2:$B$11),0))}

Please note that you don't have to put in the {}, this indicates, that this is a array formula, so you have to enter this formula with Ctrl+Shift+Enter instead of just Enter.
If you have the data in different ranges, then you will have to adjust the ranges accordingly.
If you are interested in the row instead of the Band, then wrap ROW arround the formula, so:
{=ROW(INDEX($A$2:$A$11,MATCH(1,(E2<=$C$2:$C$11)*(E2>=$B$2:$B$11),0)))}

Again with Ctrl+Shift+Enter.

A: You can use index match.

*

*Give the lookup table a name, for example "tbl"

*Lets say numbers are in column G

Then you can use this formula:
=INDEX(tbl[band];MATCH(1;(G11>=tbl[min]) * (G11 < tbl[max]);0))

The honeybee's cousins are gaining more attention this week due to new research from the University of California Riverside. Wild bee species are quickly becoming more important to the pollination and honey-making process due to the growing increase in colony collapse disorder (CCD), which is negatively affecting millions of honeybees all over the world. Bearing marked similarities to honeybees, wild bees pollinate crops and are considered an "insurance policy," according to entomologist Quinn McFrederick of UC Riverside.
The new research by Dr. McFrederick and his team, published by the journal Microbial Ecology, has found that bacteria from flowers are now linked to the crucial health of wild bees. For the first time, research is showing that multiple flower and wild bee species share several of the same types of bacteria, and this has led to the conclusion that bees obtain both food and bacteria from the flowers they pollinate. These strains of bacteria are crucial to the general health of all bee species.
Dr. McFrederick and his team collected bees and flowers at two sites—one in Texas and one at the UC Riverside campus. Bee nests were simulated by drilling holes into wood and placing these nests in fields with wildflowers. At this point, the team then collected and analyzed the microbiomes of the bees' guts and the pollen they were collecting. Their findings concluded that the presence of bee-associated bacteria in flowers suggests bacteria may be transmitted to flowers via plant surfaces, the air, or small insects.
These researchers decided that the bacteria shared by flowers and wild bees may ultimately be beneficial rather than harmful. Dr. McFrederick believes the bacteria are beneficial due to the presence of Lactobacillus bacteria, which was found on all the collected flower and bee samples. This specific strain of bacteria is believed to help preserve the nectar and pollen wild bees store in their nests as a food source for unhatched larvae and the entire hive for winter months.

A few pictures taken in Altinkum Turkey 2008. Made me very nervous as I watched from my villa balcony.
Email me your johnny foreign holiday snaps of heath and safety bloopers and I will post them for a laugh .
OK I'll just slap it on …….
Do not be a plasterer in Turkey.
I am often called in to provide advice and help when things have gone badly wrong. For example domestic building projects are a constant rich source of dispute between house owners and their builders.
You would be surprised just how much money people are prepared to handover to a builder on the basis of no written contract, scant drawings and little or no specification.The same is true of builders who are prepared to start all manner of works committing serious amounts of time and materials without proper agreements and contractual paperwork.
Naivity is often evident of both parties. The House owner assumes all builders are fine upstanding fellows or lasses and who know what they are doing and are honest trustworthy and can be simply allowed to get on with the job with no contract: a act of blind faith which is not very often in my experience justified.
Litigation is expensive. Solicitors and Lawyers ( and other experts and I include surveyors) can make a nice living sorting out these disputes. But why get youselves into such a mess?
What to do? Take professional advice. Engage a building professional to prepare a decent set of drawings and written specification. Draw up a simple contract and include in it everything each party expects the other to do ie name the parties to the contract; describe the works and refer to drawings and any written specification-ie what is to be included and what is not included?; make time the essence ie when are the works to be finished by? Agree the cost of the works .Is this a fixed total sum or can it be varied by some agreed method of valuing changes omissions and additions. Agree a method of resolving any dispute by referral to 3rd party mediator.Agree for works to inspected by 3rd party expert before final payment.
There are some very good published short plain english Small Domestic Works contracts which you can buy or even download for free. Just make a Google enquiry.
What about professional input. People often consider that paying for professional advice is a waste of money. But if you as a House owner have no knowledge of building how can you be sure the works are up to standard and warrant payment? At the very least have the finished works inspected by an expert before you part with those monies. He or she will draw up a list of defects ('snags') and these can then be put right by your builder. Do not assume the Building Control Officer will provide you with any supervisory imput. This is not their job and whilest the majority are helpful they are only interested in Statutory matters of compliance. Sometimes Builders never contact them or not as frequently as they should for staged inspections and they works simply trundle on with little or no 3rd party scrutiny.
Research and enquiry as to competence of selected builder. (Get 3 references from previous satisfied customers) : commission proper drawings and specification; draw up or complete a published contract or written agreement; take professional advice and have periodic and final inspections.- the recipe for avoiding costly building disputes.
Cowboy builders usually run a million miles from any form of written contract or agreement!!
Builders heed my advice and ensure you act similarly to protect your interests to regulate your agreement with the House owner. An independent inspection can protect you as well from bogus claims of poor work and excuse for none payment.
If you are in dispute and need help you can contact me.
I hope over time to give the benefit of some of my experiences and advice on a whole range of matters relating to the built environment ( buildings and stuff) whether you are home or business owner. We all need buildings to shelter us and house our activities. Occasionally we need advice and guidance whether its when we are thinking of buying or renting somewhere to live or carry on our business . Sometimes things go wrong with our buildings and we need to know what to do.
I have spent over 30 years variously inspecting ,surveying ,probing and reporting on all types of buildings and giving advice. I have been there, seen it ,done it and got the t-shirt. I am aways learning and there are still surprises.
Some entries will be factual ,some anecdotal and some of passing interest and even vaguely amusing.
Surveying students may occasionally find the content useful and learn things text books or your lecturers will never tell you.
The ice is broken. I have jumped in. I think therefore I blog.

Humility is defined as a modest view of one's own importance. It also seems like a natural blend of the words human and ability. It has been floating around my mind a lot recently, after having a thought-provoking conversation with someone close to me about confident vs. cocky and humble vs. insecure.
I believe confidence is a highly attractive quality, so long as you can back it up with action. It inspires a sense that someone has things covered, is not codependent and can be trusted with key tasks. However, I also believe that humility is the true path to greatness, so long as you don't volunteer to be trampled on.
I find men are labeled cocky more often than women. Likewise, women are often deemed insecure in lieu of humble. I think the assumptions made of both sexes are flawed. And, in an ironic twist, if a woman displays confidence, she is often perceived as overbearing . . . similarly, if a man shows human insecurity, he is considered weak. What a silly mess. Time to clear the slate.
Here's how it all ties into hope . . . if you are an egoist or overly assured, you likely don't see the need for hope as a daily exercise. And, if you are insecure and withdrawn, you may not feel yourself worthy of hope. Such an odd line between balance and imbalance.
I believe that having a humble heart and a confident spirit is the goal. It's possible to be real, gracious, helpful, warm and inviting, while also being capable, likable, steady and persuasive. So, proceed with confidence and guard against cockiness, as you put aside insecurities and share a humble love of life. Hope lives in that sweet spot.

TiGenix completes enrolment of its Phase I/II study in acute myocardial infarction
Leuven (BELGIUM) – 19th November 2015 – TiGenix NV (Euronext Brussels: TIG), an advanced biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercialising novel therapeutics from its proprietary platforms of allogeneic expanded stem cells, announced today that it has completed enrolment of its Phase II study in acute myocardial Infarction (CAREMI study).
CAREMI is a two phase study consisting of an open-label dose-escalation phase I completed in June 2015, and a randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled phase II, aiming at evaluating the safety and efficacy of intracoronary infusion of AlloCSC-01, a suspension of allogeneic human cardiac stem cells (CSCs), in patients that have suffered an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Enrolment of this second phase has been completed with the treatment of the last of the planned 49 patients. The trial has now entered in its 12 month follow-up period.
"We are very satisfied with the timely completion of the enrolment of the randomised phase of the trial. We see this as evidence of the close collaboration maintained with our clinical partners in the cardiology space", said Dr. Marie Paule Richard, Chief Medical Officer at TiGenix, "This achievement will enable us to perform a 6-month interim blinded exploratory analysis and obtain preliminary efficacy data early in the second half of 2016, with final results in the first half of 2017."
We believe AlloCSC-01 may become a new approach to prevent cardiac remodelling and the onset of Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) after AMI. In the UnitedStates and Europe, approximately 1.5 million AMIs are treated annually. Current AMI management therapeutic options including Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA), combined with stent implantation, are in most cases successful in re-establishing the perfusion of the ischemic myocardium and have helped to reduce the immediate mortality after infarct. However, these treatments are not able to recover the injured tissue. In fact all currently approved therapeutic approaches are palliative and designed to preserve the function of the surviving myocardium.
The CAREMI trial will help to establish AlloCSC-01 as a potential means to reduce the damage caused by the infarct and improve the prognosis of AMI patients in this very large indication. Eight clinical centers of reference in cardiology have participated in the CAREMI trial led by Prof. Fernández-Avilés of Hospital Gregorio Marañón in Madrid, Spain, and Prof. Stefan Janssens of KU Leuven, Belgium, as principal investigators. The CAREMI trial has been supported by the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Commission, a transnational research funding initiative, as part of the CARE-MI project (Grant Number 242038).

About AlloCSC-01
AlloCSC-01 is a cellular product consisting of adult allogeneic cardiac stem cells isolated from the right atrial appendages of donors, and expanded in vitro. Pre-clinical data has shown evidence of the strong cardio-protective and immune-regulatory activity of AlloCSC-01. In vivo studies suggest that AlloCSC-01 has cardio-reparative potential by activating endogenous regenerative pathways and by promoting the formation of new cardiac tissue. In addition, AlloCSC-01 has displayed a strong tropism for the heart enabling a high retention of cells in the myocardium after intracoronary administration. AlloCSC 01 is currently in clinical development in a Phase I/II clinical trial (CAREMI). The CAREMI trial comprises two consecutive phases: an open-label dose escalation phase (n=6) and a 2:1 randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase (n=49). The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and the efficacy of the cardiac stem cells product AlloCSC-01 in the acute phase of ischemic heart disease. The primary endpoint of the CAREMI Phase I is all cause mortality within 30 days and all adverse events of any cause from the patient's inclusion until 7 days after treatment administration. Secondary endpoints for this dose escalation phase include efficacy MRI parameters (evolution of infarct size and evolution of biomechanical parameters), clinical parameters (including the 6 minute walking test and the New York Heart Association scale) and safety (all AEs within 30 days, then monthly up to 6 months, then quarterly post-AlloCSC-01, all-cause mortality and death from cardiovascular cause at 12 months, and MACE measured at 6 and 12 months). Eight centers are participating in Spain and Belgium and patient recruitment is now finished. The CAREMI trial has benefitted from the support of the CARE-MI consortium (Grant Number 242038) funded by the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Commission under the coordination of the Centro Nacional the Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) and the participation of research institutions and companies from nine EU countries. Final results will be released in the first half of 2017 with a six-month interim analysis of blinded and exploratory efficacy data in the second half of 2016.
About TiGenix
TiGenix NV (Euronext Brussels: TIG) is an advanced biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercialising novel therapeutics from its proprietary platforms of allogeneic, or donor-derived, expanded stem cells. Two products from the adipose-derived technology platform are currently in clinical development. Cx601 is in Phase III for the treatment of complex perianal fistulas in Crohn's disease patients. Cx611 has completed a Phase I/II trial in rheumatoid arthritis, as well as a Phase I sepsis challenge trial. Effective as of July 31, 2015, TiGenix acquired Coretherapix, whose lead cellular product (AlloCSC-01) is currently in a Phase II clinical trial in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Coretherapix is planning to initiate the clinical evaluation of AlloCSC-01 in the chronic setting as well and is also involved in the pre-clinical development of a pharmaceutical formulation of growth factors to treat AMI. Finally, TiGenix also developed ChondroCelect, an autologous cell therapy product for cartilage repair of the knee, which was the first Advanced Therapy Medicinal Product (ATMP) to be approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). From June 2014, the marketing and distribution rights of ChondroCelect were exclusively licensed to Sobi for the European Union (except for Finland, where it is distributed by the Finnish Red Cross Blood Service), Norway, Russia, Switzerland and Turkey, and the countries of the Middle East and North Africa.

Top 10 Lou Gramm Songs
Eric Kamau 4 months ago No Comments
Our top 10 Lou Gramm songs list looks at the body of work of an American singer-songwriter who rose to fame as the lead vocalist of the successful rock band Foreigner. After clinching stardom with the band Foreigner, Lou Gramm would later establish a successful solo career. Despite his solo career being short, Lou Gramm managed to deliver two top ten hits on the Billboard Hot 100. His success as a solo artist started with the release of the hit "Midnight Blue," the lead single to his debut album, Ready or Not.
"Midnight Blue" catapulted Lou Gramm's solo career into mainstream success after it topped the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart. The song gifted the singer his first solo top ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number five. Lou Gramm would almost achieve similar success with his 1989 pop rock single "Just Between You and Me," which peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100.
Lou Gramm's Career Beginnings and Breakthrough
The 1950-born rock legend started his musical pursuits as a member of the rock band Black Sheep. Lou Gramm assumed the lead vocals role at Black Sheep towards the recording of the band's 1975 eponymous debut album. The singer also sang lead vocals to the band's sophomore album, Encouraging Words. While the two albums might not have earned Black Sheep mainstream and commercial success, they helped Lou Gramm earn the attention of former Spooky Tooth member Mick Jones.
Eventually, Mick Jones recruited Lou Gramm to front his new band, Foreigner. Thanks to Lou Gramm's idiosyncratic vocal delivery that the band achieved success with multiple pop rock hits. The biggest hit Lou Gramm released as Foreigner's frontman was "I Want to Know What Love Is," a song that was later covered by Mariah Carey, Tina Arena, Lucky Dube, Wynonna Judd, and Kenny Chesney, to name a few.
While the band's musical pursuits only seemed to be successful, a lot happened behind the scenes. Lou Gramm and Mick Jones were often involved in creative differences, a move that saw Lou Gramm think of establishing a solo career. Gramm's suggestion for the band's musical direction was persistence to its original rock roots. However, Mick Jones had a different idea, proposing evolution to synth-influenced ballads. Eventually, Lou Gramm went on to release a successful solo studio album while still playing with Foreigner.
Lou Gramm's Album Releases over the Years
In January 1987, Lou Gramm issued his debut album, Ready or Not, through Atlantic Records. This pop-rock record catapulted the singer to mainstream success, peaking at number twenty-seven on the Billboard 200. The album also made it to the Swiss, Swedish, Dutch, Australian, and Canadian Albums Charts. Ready or Not is home to Lou Gramm's signature hit "Midnight Blue."
"If I Don't Have You," "Ready or Not," and "Until I Make You Mine" are some of the other best Lou Gramm songs from the album. Lou Gramm would a few months later release with his band Foreigner the album Inside Information. 1987 was a busy and successful year for Lou Gramm, having him also invited to sing the hit "Lost in the Shadows" for the soundtrack of the 1987 comedy horror movie The Lost Boys.
In 1989, Lou Gramm returned with his sophomore solo album, Long Hard Look. The rock album was a success too, peaking at number eighty-five on the Billboard 200. Long Hard Look spawned top hits including "Just Between You and Me," "True Blue Love," and "Angel with a Dirty Face."
Lou Gramm's Other Musical Pursuits
After departing from his band Foreigner in 1990, Lou Gramm went on to form the hard rock supergroup Shadow King. Lou Gramm was joined by former Foreigner bassist Bruce Turgon, Donnie Iris and the Cruisers' drummer Kevin Campbell, and Def Leppard guitarist (formerly of Dio) Vivian Campbell in his new journey. However, Shadow King failed to achieve mainstream success forcing its disbandment.
Lou Gramm's Accolades and Legacy
While Lou Gramm might have established a successful solo career, his legacy stands best thanks to his impactful role as the lead vocalist of the band Foreigner. The singer was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2013 together with Mick Jones. Other artists inducted to the Songwriters Hall of Fame the same year include Tony Hatch, former Device and Spider member Holly Knight, J. D. Souther, and Aerosmith members Joe Perry and Steven Tyler. Here we present ten of the best Lou Gramm songs from the singer's solo career pursuits.
#10- Lover Come Back
Opening our top 10 Lou Gramm songs list is the phenomenal hit "Lover Come Back." The song is among the top songs released on the singer's debut studio album, Ready or Not. "Lover Come Back" is a heartfelt ballad that finds Lou Gramm trying to talk his lover back to his heart and home. You ought to love the superb work of former Foreigner guitarist Bruce Turgon on the lead guitars. Mark Rivera, best known for his work with Billy Joel, showcases his stunning work of art on the soprano saxophone in this hit.
#9- I'll Come Running
Very few songs by Lou Gramm can match the true rock feel of the hit "I'll Come Running." The song is among the best cuts off Lou Gramm's sophomore studio album, Long Hard Look. "I'll Come Running" feels a little ferocious compared to some of the pop-rock hits issued on the singer's debut album.
Lou Gramm's vocal intensity on this song is similar to that he delivers on the hits "Angel with a Dirty Face" and the cover of Small Faces' hit "Tin Soldier." "I'll Come Running" features Dann Huff on the lead guitars, leaving Bruce Turgon settling for the rhythm guitars. Huff's exquisite skills on the lead guitar prove why he was recruited severally by other artists/bands including Whitesnake, Amy Grant, Doro Pesch, Whitney Houston, and Barbra Streisand, to name a few.
#8- Until I Make You Mine
Coming in at number eight on our top 10 Lou Gramm songs list is the intoxicating hit "Until I Make You Mine." How the song never made it to the charts lives to be a mystery for Lou Gramm's fans. The misfortunes of this hit probably started when it was placed on the rather passive side two of Lou Gramm's debut album, Ready or Not.
However, like the hit "Lover Come Back," "Until I Make You Mine" finds its way to claiming a fan-favorite spot amongst top Lou Gramm songs. Lou Gramm and Bruce Turgon collaborated in writing this lyrical masterpiece. Having Nils Lofgren on the lead guitars was a great value addition to the song's overall quality!
#7- Angel with a Dirty Face
Aggressive, yet precise and unmistakably splendid are Lou Gramm's vocals on this hit! "Angel with a Dirty Face" is Lou Gramm's best stab into some hard rock sonic influences. The song takes us back to the singer's signature vocals back when he was just beginning his journey to stardom as an original member of Foreigner.
A narrative of pain and pleasure is all "Angel with a Dirty Face" has to give! Lou Gramm tells it better that love is not always what it seems to be in this hard-rocking ballad. "Angel with a Dirty Face" is featured on Lou Gramm's sophomore studio album, Long Hard Look.
#6- If I Don't Have You
Number six on our top 10 Lou Gramm songs list is the incredible hit "If I Don't Have You." The song is among the singer's best cuts from his debut studio album, Ready or Not. "If I Don't Have You" finds Lou Gramm giving yet again a stellar performance on the vocals. This rock power ballad finds Lou's sibling Richard Grammatico taking on the lead guitars. Stanley Sheldon, known for his work with Peter Frampton, takes on the bass guitar role on this ethereal hit.
#5- Lost in the Shadows
After successfully releasing his 1987 debut studio album, Lou Gramm was invited a few months later to contribute to the soundtrack of the film The Lost Boys. The singer recorded the over six-minute hit "Lost in the Shadows" which went on to become one of his best classics!
Thanks to the exquisite nature of the ten-song soundtrack it managed two-time Platinum certification in Australia. Other top hits featured on the soundtrack include "Cry Little Sister" by Gerard McMann, the cover of Elton John's hit "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" by Roger Daltrey, and the cover of The Easybeats' hit "Good Times" by Jimmy Barnes and INXS.
#4- Ready or Not
Upbeat and lively is Lou Gramm's hit "Ready or Not," the album title track to his debut album. The singer saw this hit achieve mainstream success thanks to its strong and hard-rocking nature. "Ready or Not" managed to rise to the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart, peaking at the seventh spot. The song also made it to number fifty-four on the Billboard Hot 100.
#3- True Blue Love
The third pick of our top 10 Lou Gramm songs list is the luscious hit "True Blue Love." With this hit, Lou Gramm goes a little smooth on his hard-hitting rock influences, featuring heavily pop-rock sounds. "True Blue Love" Peter Maunu's electric guitar tunes make up the skeleton song's melody. Lou Gramm is joined by Ina Wolf in this song for background vocals.
"True Blue Love" was a success on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart, peaking at number twenty-three. The song also made it to the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number forty. "True Blue Love" showcases the songwriting brilliance of Lou Gramm and Peter Wolf. The two also collaborated in penning the hits "Angel with a Dirty Face," "Broken Dreams," and "Day One."
#2- Just Between You and Me
Lou Gramm and singer-songwriter Holly Knight were both inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2013 for their brilliance in lyricism. "Just Between You and Me" is among the fruits of their combined efforts in the songwriting scene. The song is the brightest release by Lou Gramm from his solo studio album, Long Hard Look. "Just Between You and Me" has the pillars towards its success as the relatable lyrical content and a sweltering pre-chorus.
The song's lyrics allude to a couple battling with issues with the two lovers spilling the beans about it all to others behind each other's backs. "Just Between You and Me" rose to number four on the Billboard Mainstream Rock and Billboard Adult Contemporary Charts. The song is Lou Gramm's second highest solo release on the Billboard Hot 100 after "Midnight Blue," peaking at number six.
#1- Midnight Blue
Number one on our top 10 Lou Gramm songs list is the outstanding hit "Midnight Blue." The song is the popular and sought-after pop-rock hit from Lou Gramm's debut album, Ready or Not. "Midnight Blue" was penned by Lou Gramm and Bruce Turgon with its lyrics alluding to the simplicity of life. According to the singer, as his father told him, life is either cherry red or midnight blue.
While cherry red is metaphoric for things taking the best of the trajectories, midnight blue points at things getting dark and mysterious. "Midnight Blue" was Lou Gramm's debut solo single and first stab at solo success too. The song topped the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart, peaking at number five on the Billboard Hot 100.

Come on the hunting adventure of a lifetime with world-renowned hunter and martial artist Lynn Thompson, as he travels throughout Australia. On this journey, you'll head into the rugged outback of the Northern Territories where Lynn will put his skills to the test, hunting huge Asian Buffalo.
Asian Buffalo are bigger in body size than the African Cape Buffalo. They have much thicker skin and are notorious for being far tougher and more challenging to kill.
Lynn will then travel from the Northern Territories to Southern Australia to hunt trophy Red Deer and Elk. Additionally, he will be assisting property owners and various government departments throughout Australia to cull Buffalo, Red Deer, Fallow Deer, Kangaroos and other pest animals that threaten local crops and livestock.
This video features non-stop action and footage of over thirty days of hunting throughout Australia. You'll see over 126 animals fall to Lynn's trusty rifles.

The AKP government in Turkey has recently enacted alarming hegemonic policies on political and economic spheres. Their feeling of defeat in the cultural field has resulted in an aggressive culture war in all sorts of creative and critical circles. During this ruthless campaign, Osman Kavala – businessman, activist and among the most influential actors of the contemporary cultural scene – was targeted. He was jailed for 15 months and now faces a life sentence with the absurd accusation of masterminding and financing the Gezi Uprising back in 2013. The panelists, who had continuous collaboration and close friendship with Kavala will assess the situation and discuss the ways in which acts of solidarity can be expanded upon and organised to create a counter-pressure on oppressive regimes.

If the former holder allocated the asset to a low-value pool, the cost of the asset to you is so much of the closing balance of the pool for the income year in which the former holder died that is reasonably attributable to the asset.
If you start to hold a depreciating asset because it passes to you as a beneficiary of an estate or as a surviving joint tenant, the cost of the asset to you is its market value when you started to hold it reduced by any capital gain that was ignored when the owner died or when it passed from the legal personal representative. See the Guide to capital gains tax (NAT 4151 - 6.2004) for information about when these gains can be disregarded.
