In the USA, today is Thanksgiving Day. Many of us will be enjoying the traditional Thanksgiving feast with our families. We hope that this feast will prefigure the ultimate feast, "the wedding feast of the Lamb" in heaven.
To accept the Lord's invitation to His wedding feast, we must make a covenant of love with Him, completely give our lives to the Lord, and have a relationship with Him which transcends marriage.
This wedding feast is the feast of Jesus, called the Lamb. To come to the wedding feast, we need the weakness of the slain Lamb of God. We must have the weakness of the cross (see 2 Cor 13:4) by which God's power is brought to perfection (2 Cor 12:9).
Furthermore, all those at the heavenly wedding feast "have survived the great period of trial; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb" (Rv 7:14). At the everlasting, ultimate wedding feast, all present have a purified, crucified, covenant-love for the Lamb of God.
At Holy Communion, the priest proclaims: "Behold, the Lamb of God, Who takes away the sin of the world. Happy are those who are called to His supper." Live a life of love and daily Communion. Accept the invitation to the heavenly wedding feast of the Lamb.
Prayer: Father, thank You for inviting me to celebrate with You forever in heaven. I accept Your invitation.

Visit Bassetlaw
Retford is an ideal base from which to explore the historic district of Bassetlaw in North Nottinghamshire. Retford itself is a charming market town with many historic buildings and a thriving market. The wide range of cafes and shops, the award winning Kings' Park and the picturesque Chesterfield Canal make this an attractive destination for a day out. Take a walk through history- pick up a copy of the 'Retford Heritage Trail' at the museum (a child friendly version is also available) to discover the town's landmarks and hidden curiosities.
The region's links to the Mayflower Pilgrims run deep. Many of the 17th century religious separatists, who left on the Mayflower to found a colony in North America, came from the area. To find out more, please visit the Mayflower 400 or Pilgrim Roots websites.
Bassetlaw is also the gateway to the Dukeries, an area which contained five large country estates. Today, Clumber Park, Welbeck and Rufford Abbey are open to the public, offering a great range of outdoor activities, art and craft studios and restaurants.
Other attractions nearby include the Idle Valley Nature Reserve, Creswell Crags and the Sherwood Rangers Museum at Thoresby.

TCB Exclusive: Bethel Music's Kalley Talks Finding Emmanuel In The Rubble On 'Faultlines'
Written by Jessie Clarks
Bethel Music,
A veteran member of the Bethel Music worship collective, acclaimed singer/songwriter Kalley Heiligenthal is known for co-writes of popular praise anthems like "Ever Be." She was showcased on Bethel Music's first Spanish language release and also serves as a second-year worship pastor at Bethel's School of Supernatural Ministry. Now, Kalley steps into the solo spotlight with her recently-released two-EP debut. Birthed in the aftermath of last year's California wildfires, the alt-pop/electronic Faultlines Vol. 1 and Faultlines Vol. 2 overarchingly reaffirm Kalley's trust in the God who doesn't run from disaster. Produced by LaeL (Anberlin, Number One Gun), Faultlines Vol. 1 is hallmarked by six songs of breakthrough and unbridled expectation. The introspectively-focused Faultlines Vol. 2 was produced by Jason Ingram (Lauren Daigle, Cory Asbury) and also features six selections. Recently, Kalley talked with us about the inspiration behind her new music and her hopes for the collection.
Congratulations on the recent release of 'Faultlines Vol. 1' and 'Faultlines Vol. 2' your debut solo project. When did you first feel the stirring to step into the solo spotlight and how long was this project in the making?
Bethel Music approached me about an album a few years back, which got me thinking more seriously about what I'd want to say, what kind of approach I'd take on an album. Once the fire hit in July 2018, I began writing toward some of these themes as I personally processed what had just happened in our city and lives.
How would you describe the sound of your music to new listeners?
Both EPs have their own unique sounds— 'Faultlines Vol. 1' is more poppy, alternative, experimental. While 'Faultlines Vol. 2' is also experimental, it employs a more cinematic, dark approach to the story.
What was behind the desire to release these projects as individual EPs and how does the sound or message of these projects compare and contrast?
Situations in our life aren't often one-note, especially the ones that really form and shape us. The fires and the process of personal excavating and healing that would unfold after came with highs and lows, tenderness and tension, thrill of breakthrough and honest vulnerability. These EPs capture multiple sides to the same coin.
What inspired the title 'Faultlines?'
I had written the song "Faultlines" with Jason Ingram with the inspiration coming from a line I had written in my journal months before, "So how about all these fault lines, are they yours or are they mine?" It was me expressing the human need of understanding and placing what we go through in our lives—we often want to settle blame, "Was this my fault? Who's to blame? Why is all of this happening?"— but for me I've realized that the answers I'm demanding aren't actually what bring peace; we need healing, comfort, perspective. God doesn't send calamity, and whether we're to blame or something was wrongfully done to us, the Good News of the Gospel is that Jesus picks it all up and bears it Himself, administering healing, hope and newness to what formerly had been sources of pain. It felt like a summary statement to the themes and conversation of the album and worked well with the two EPs.
What message do you hope listeners take away from the new music?
My hope is that they would come with their vulnerability to a Jesus who isn't waiting for us to have it all together before we approach Him; to find Emmanuel in the rubble, unafraid of the mess with all of our questions, doubt, pain and joy laid out before Him and know He's committed to us all the way through it.
Which of these new songs was the most challenging to write or record?
We had a lot of different iterations of "In the Middle of It" before we landed on the lyrics and melody that we have now. It was well worth it!
What is your favorite new song to perform live right now?
I don't think I'll ever get tired of leading "Alabaster Heart." After everything I mean it more and more that anything He wants that He sees in me He can have. I've come to see even more how trustworthy He is with anything I'd bring Him, how He always hands it back better than what I had surrendered to Him in the first place and it makes it a joy to lay my life down to Him.
Who are some of your biggest musical inspirations at the moment?
I have a two and a three-year-old so my most honest answer is I mostly only get to listen to the 'Frozen' soundtrack and Baby Shark.
What should listeners expect coming in 2020 from the Bethel Music collective?
We have a compilation album on the horizon that is shaping up to be incredible!

Flawed Beauty
Music by Alex V. CipollePosted on 02/21/2013
If you want to know what Robin Bacior sounds like, and I mean really sounds like, listen to her 2013 EP I Left You, Still In Love (available for free until Feb. 25 at robinbacior.bandcamp.com). The album was recorded in a one-day session at Headgear Studios in Brooklyn, New York. If you listen closely to "Women Speak," you will hear a guitar string snapping. At first, Bacior thought she had ruined the track, but the recording grew on her, the flaws creating a sense of intimacy. "It's a direct reflection of our live show," Bacior says. "I like when I hear something and I feel like I'm in the room with someone."
Bacior recently relocated to Portland from Brooklyn, where her cellist Dan Bindschedler remains. Despite the distance, the pair remains close, exchanging letters and emails about songs. Then they pick a place on one of the coasts where they meet for "concentrated practices," basically isolating themselves and holing away for long weekends. "It works really well," Bacior says. "We're used to each other's style. We can guess where the other one is going to go."
And it does work well. Bacior's voice is like a melding of Ani DiFranco and Zooey Deschanel, and when paired with the cello, or the piano for that matter, it transcends into something hauntingly, but humbly, beautiful. As an artist with intrinsic musical talent, Bacior shoud push her vocals past her comfort zone in the future because it could be something truly sublime. That may happen sooner rather than later — she's already itching to record again.
Bacior won't be the only talented female vocalist that night; Hot Milk will be opening. Led by Rebecca Conner's smoky, smooth voice, the jazz-inspired Hot Milk is one of Eugene's rising talents. Listen for their highly danceable version of The Jungle Book's "I Wanna Be Like You." Conner, who studies jazz at LCC, says the band hopes to record an album soon, but first they have to raise money via Kickstarter.
Robin Bacior, Hot Milk and The Great Hiatum play 9:30 pm Saturday, Feb. 23, at Sam Bond's; $5.

Object of Intrigue: the Prosthetic Iron Hand of a 16th-Century Knight
by Ella Morton November 3, 2015
(Photos: Landesarchiv Baden-Württemberg/Wikipedia)
Fierce German mercenary knight Götz von Berlichingen loved a good feud. As a soldier for hire in the early 1500s, he and his rogue crew of rabble-rousers fought on behalf of whichever Bavarian dukes and barons had the biggest beefs and the fattest wallets.
But all this battling came at a personal cost. In 1504, while fighting in the siege of the southeast German town of Landshut in the name of Albert IV, the Duke of Bavaria, the 23-year-old Berlichingen was hit by an enemy cannonball. Accounts vary over what happened next, but either way, it was dramatic—some say the ball hit Berlichingen's sword, inadvertently causing him to cut off his own right arm. Others say it was the cannonball itself that robbed Berlichingen of his rapier-wielding appendage.
Regardless of the details, a hand was gone, and the knight had to find a new way to fight. The adjustment didn't take long. Shortly after his unfortunate encounter with the cannonball, Berlichingen began sporting a clinking, clanking right hand made of iron.
Berlichingen's first iron hand, made for him by an unknown artist shortly after the 1504 battle. (Photo: Landesarchiv Baden-Württemberg/Wikipedia)
The first hand was a basic affair. Two hinges at the top of the palm allowed the four hook-like fingers to be brought inward for sword-holding purposes, but that was the extent of its motion. There was some attention paid to aesthetic detail, though, including sculpted fingernails and wrinkles at the knuckles.
Still, Berlichingen did not allow his newfound lack of manual dexterity to slow him down. He continued to lead his band of mercenaries in battle. His career, wrote Dr. Sharon Romm in an article on false arms in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, "consisted of fighting, gambling, and money lending," for which he "gained a reputation as a Robin Hood who protected the peasants against their oppressors." Kidnapping nobles for ransom and attacking merchants for their wares was just part of the gig.

After a few years of fighting with a serviceable yet inflexible false hand, Berlichingen upgraded to a superior model. His second iron hand, which extended to the end of his forearm and was secured with a leather strap, was "a clumsy structure, but an ingenious one," according to the American Journal of Surgery.
In contrast to the first hand, it was equipped with joints at each of the knuckles, allowing for a tighter grip. Berlichingen could use his left hand to maneuver the fingers of his right one, so they could hold a sword, quill, or the reins of his war horse. Spring-loaded mechanisms inside the hand locked the fingers into place, in a manner similar to the ratchet-and-pawl system used in handcuffs.

This second hand, a rare example of a 16th-century prosthetic limb, is still kept at a castle museum in Berlichingen's native Jagsthausen, a small German town of about 1,600 people. As a show of local pride in the defiant knight, the town's coat of arms also features the iron appendage.
"Götz of the Iron Hand," as he became known, kept fighting until the age of 64, participating in campaigns against the Ottoman Empire and in the 1544 Imperial invasion of France. He eventually retired from professional antagonism and penned an autobiography, which he left in manuscript form when he died in 1562, aged 82. Published in 1731, the autobiography inspired one Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who in 1773 wrote Götz von Berlichingen, a dramatic play based on Berlichingen's life.
"His protection of the Peasantry around him, and the unbounded popularity which he enjoyed among them, as well as his frequent acts of violence, had made him particularly obnoxious to the princes and nobles," reads the preface of an 1837 English translation of Götz von Berlichingen. The play uses much poetic license and transforms Berlichingen into a tragic figure who dies young. The knight is depicted as a ferocious yet sensitive soul. Explaining to a friar why he must greet people by offering his left hand to shake, he says: "My right, although useful in war, is insensitive to the touch of love; it is disguised by a glove; you see, it is made of iron."

The most memorable line in the play, however, comes from an apparent real-life response offered by Berlichingen when he was under siege at Jagsthausen Castle. Ordered to surrender, the knight responds with "Er aber, sag's ihm, er kann mich im Arsche lecken," or, roughly, "Tell him he can kiss my ass." This then-uncommon phrase is now known among Germans as the Swabian Salute.
A plaque in the country's southwestern municipality of Weisenheim am Sand displays his immortal words beneath a relief portrait of Berlichingen holding his iron hand to his heart and contemplating his next sponsored squabble.

Billy Graham: A Prophet With Honor

Q: Liferay 6.2 remove sample data I'm trying to remove sample data (Welcome screen and everything else) from my Liferay server.
I tried to:

*

*remove all directories from the webapps directory except ROOT directory

*create new (blank) portal-ext.properties in ROOT/WEB-inf/classes (there was no portal-ext.properties file)

*search via Google :)

Nothing of the above helped. Thank you for your advices.

A: You might have configured a database, or are using the built-in demo hsql database. This holds all the regular data. If you've configured Liferay to access another database either remove the tables from that database or point to another one. There's also the document library that holds documents and images (the binary content). By default they all live in the data directory, on the same level as your tomcat directory (assuming you use a bundle)
A new blank portal-ext.properties will not help you, as it overrides all the standard values defined in Liferay. If there's no content, you're using all the default. And the file should rather be in ${liferay-home}, e.g. the directory that also has the tomcat directory in a bundle.
As you've removed all content and bundled webapplications anyway, you can also just install a new bundle in another directory and use it, pointing it to a new database.

Station Korsvägen, Västlänken
In connection with constructing an eight-kilometer new railway line for commuter and regional trains, just over six kilometers will go in a tunnel under the center of Gothenburg.
Three new underground stations will be established along the route. The total cost of the project is estimated at SEK 20 billion. NGI is a sub-consultant to a consulting group consisting of Tyrens, Sweco and Bergab for rock mechanics before station Korsvägen.
Korsvägen station will have an extensive tunnel system with two parts of the station in rock and a middle part in loose masses. Both the western and eastern parts of the station will have cross-sections that are up to 50 m wide and with a rock cover of around 15-25 m.
This requires a solution with a series of concrete piles in the center line of the station, something that has never been built before. In addition, a cross hall (intermediate level) with a span of 28 m will be made, where the rock cover is at least 7-8 m.
The solution with concrete piles requires cooperation calculations, mainly carried out as continuum calculations in 2D and 3D with Plaxis. As the material is a fractured rock mass (gneiss), the "Jointed Rock Model" has been used, in addition to Mohr-Coulomb, to calculate realistic loads on the concrete pillars in the form of moments, normal forces, and shear forces.
The stability of the rock mass is modeled as a dis-continuum in 2D and 3D with UDEC and 3DEC.

Turi Widerøe (* 23. November 1937 in Oslo) ist eine norwegische Pilotin, Journalistin und Buchgestalterin. Sie gilt als erste Pilotin, die für eine große westliche Fluggesellschaft flog.

Leben
Turi Widerøe wurde 1937 in Oslo als Tochter des norwegischen Piloten und Unternehmers Viggo Widerøe (1904–2002) und seiner Frau Solveig Agnes Schrøder (1914–1989) geboren. Ihr Vater war der Gründer der norwegischen Regionalfluggesellschaft Widerøe's Flyveselskap. Sie absolvierte eine Ausbildung zur Buchdesignerin an der Statens håndverks- og kunstindustriskole (Norwegische Nationale Akademie für Kunst und Handwerk). Nach ihrem Abschluss im Jahr 1958 arbeitete sie erst zwei Jahre als Grafikdesignerin bei der Druckerei Grøndahl & Søn, danach bei der norwegischen Architektenvereinigung als Buchgestalterin und Zeitschriftenredakteurin.

1962 erwarb Turi Widerøe die Privatpilotenlizenz. Sie wechselte ihren Beruf und wurde Assistentin eines Managers des Bergbauunternehmens A/S Sydvaranger in Troms. Gleichzeitig setzte sie ihre Pilotenausbildung fort und erhielt schließlich 1967 ihre Berufspilotenlizenz. In den Sommern arbeitete sie für die Fluggesellschaft ihres Vaters, wo sie zunächst Wasserflugzeuge bei Bodø flog, später übernahm sie Linienflüge zwischen Trondheim und Tromsø mit den Flugzeugtypen Noorduyn Norseman und de Havilland Otter.

1968 wurde sie von der Fluggesellschaft SAS Scandinavian Airlines angestellt und begann ihre Ausbildung auf Strahlflugzeugen. Das war zu dieser Zeit so ungewöhnlich, dass die Meldung "S.A.S. to Train Woman Pilot" sogar in der New York Times erschien. 1969 schloss sie als drittbeste Studentin ihres Jahrgangs ab und wurde die erste Pilotin der SAS. Bis dahin waren weibliche Pilotinnen nur bei sowjetischen und bulgarischen Fluglinien angestellt, nicht jedoch in der Westlichen Welt. Ihren ersten Linienflug bei der SAS absolvierte Turi Widerøe am 30. April 1969 als Erste Offizierin auf einer Convair CV-440 Metropolitan. Später wurde sie zur Flugkapitänin befördert und flog die Strahlflugzeuge Caravelle und McDonnell Douglas DC-9.

Die Fluggesellschaft SAS setzte Turi Widerøe allerdings nicht nur als Pilotin ein, sondern nutzte ihre Popularität auch im Marketing. Im Februar 1970 wurde sie auf eine einwöchige PR-Tour durch die Vereinigten Staaten geschickt. Dort trat sie in verschiedenen Fernsehshows und Radiosendungen auf und gab Interviews für Zeitungen und Magazine.

Im Jahr 1972 heiratete sie den Maler, Zeichner, Grafiker, Illustrator und Schriftsteller Karl Erik Harr, aus der Verbindung gingen zwei Kinder hervor. 1975 wurde die Ehe aufgelöst.

Als alleinerziehende Mutter zweier Kinder musste Turi Widerøe ihren Beruf als Pilotin aufgeben und arbeitete von 1979 bis 1986 als Journalistin und Moderatorin beim Norwegischen Rundfunk NRK, danach war sie bei verschiedenen Verlagen als Redakteurin und in der Öffentlichkeitsarbeit tätig. Bereits 1984 begann sie neben ihrem Beruf ein Studium der Geschichte an der Universität Oslo, das sie 1998 mit einem Master of Science abschloss. 2006 erwarb sie einen weiteren Master-Abschluss an der Universität Tromsø. Ihre Diplomarbeit Is, fly og skip beschäftigt sich mit der luftgestützten und geophysikalischen Kartierung des antarktischen Kontinents zwischen 1929 und 1939.

Auszeichnungen und Ehrungen
 Amelia-Earhart-Medaille, verliehen von der US-amerikanischen Pilotinnenvereinigung Ninety Nines
 1970: Harmon Aviatrix Trophy (gemeinsam mit der Harmon Astronaut's Trophy für Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin und  Michael Collins)
 Ihre SAS-Uniform ist im National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. ausgestellt.

Australian Warming, Hockey Sticks and Open Review
June 11, look 2012, troche 6:12 pm
By ANDREW C. REVKIN
A much-cited study (paper here) concluded last month that the extent of warming in Australia in recent decades was so great compared to climate variations in the last millennium that it had to be mainly the result of warming from the human-driven buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. (Here's a video interview from May with the lead author, Joëlle Gergis from the University of Melbourne.)
It's the latest research in more than a decade of work producing a climate "hockey stick" — graphs of global or regional temperatures showing relatively little variation over a millennium or more and then a sharp uptick since the middle of the twentieth century (the blade at the end of the stick).
Now the paper, at the request of the authors, has been "put on hold" by the Journal of Climate after questions were raised publicly about one of the researchers' methods, starting with a comment on Steve McIntyre's Climate Audit blog. This field of study uses sophisticated statistical methods to derive meaning from scattered and variegated indirect indicators of past temperature — with tree rings being the most familiar example.
It is unclear whether the problem will affect the study's conclusions. Depending on the result, readers of the initial burst of news could end up with a familiar sense of whiplash.
To see how quickly the research results made the rounds, check the headlines here. My unfavorite would be "IT'S OFFICIAL: Australia is warming and it is your fault," in the Herald Sun. This is a classic case of what I've been calling "single-study syndrome," the bias in the news process toward the "front-page thought" and tendency to forget that science is a herky-jerky process.
Over the weekend, I got in touch with David Karoly, one of the paper's authors and a longtime contact on climate science, to confirm the accuracy of a post by McIntyre quoting him. He said all was accurate, adding this noted about the review of the work:
We cannot say yet whether the conclusions are changed or not until we have completed our review of the data and the results.
As I said in my e-mail to Stephen, "This is a normal part of science. The testing of scientific studies through independent analysis of data and methods strengthens the conclusions. In this study, an issue has been identified and the results are being re-checked."
Indeed, this is an increasingly normal part of science these days. While the blogosphere comes with lots of noise, it also is providing a second level of review — after the initial round of closed peer review during the publication process — that in the end is making tough, emerging fields of science better than they would otherwise be.
The paper's changed status was noted today by Ivan Oransky, one of the two science writers behind the invaluable Retraction Watch blog. I asked him by e-mail to characterize the value of this relatively new process of public review. He wrote:
I see this as a good example of how post-publication peer review can work. In general, blogs and other web critiques are already adding a great deal to the scientific process. Some researchers and journals welcome that, as seems to be true in this case. Others stubbornly refuse to engage with criticism from anywhere other than "official channels." That's very short-sighted, and it suggests that transparency and self-correction aren't actually as high-priority as many scientists would like us to believe.
Adam [Marcus] and I expound on post-publication peer review here.
Perhaps inside-baseball, but just in case:
I think what happened here is akin to what you see in physics with arXiv [an archive for preprints of scientific papers], except that arXiv explicitly calls postings "pre-prints" instead of "advance online access" or something similar. We've been seeing more and more examples of papers that are published online, then withdrawn into a sort of purgatory. The reluctance to come out and say these papers are retracted also reflects that print vs. online bias. Sorry, folks, once something is published, you don't get a pass on explaining what was wrong with it just because it hasn't hit print yet.
Here's an excerpt from Oransky's post:
Post-publication peer review is indeed a "normal part of science," as Karoly notes, and one that we've championed. While we'll have to wait for the final outcome in this case, the authors should be commended for acting swiftly to try to correct the record. We'd only remind them, and the journal, that a publication is a publication, whether it's online or in print, so if this paper turns out to be fatally flawed, it would need to be retracted and not simply disappear.
Despite the often contentious debates that erupt over climate change science, we've seen only one other retraction in the field since we launched in August 2010, when Edward Wegman was forced to retract a paper for plagiarism.

Renewed Boko Haram Attacks is caused by Economic Sabotage – Group
in News Update
An anti-terror group, Coalition Against Terrorism (NCAT) has said the renewed hostility by boko haram terrorists in the northeast is being fuelled by economic motivations of crude oil in the Lake Chad Basin and not religious philosophy.
The National Co-ordinator of NCAT,Comrade Gabriel Onoja made the statement while addressing journalists in Jos, the Plateau state capital. He said "The intermittent suicide bomb attacks particularly around the Chad Basin region, as evident in the recent terrorists' ambush of oil geologists on research mission in the area are prompted by economic considerations,"
The group also said the the religious philosophy of the terrorists has been dumped for economic motivations, even as it alleged that the terrorists are suspected to be sponsored by forces opposed to Nigeria's exploration of crude oil within her territorial boundaries in the Lake Chad Basin.
Onoja who insisted that the Boko haram terrorists led by Abubakar Shekau has been defeated by the military however advised that
Nigerians should not lose track of this dynamism in the focus of Boko Haram terrorists confrontation of Nigeria.
While commending the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt. Gen. Tukur Yusufu Buratai and other Service Chiefs who have complied with the relocation order by the President to the Northeast with every zeal to terminate the journey of terrorism finally, the NCAT coordinator expressed confidence in the ability of the military to relentlessly continue to monitor to keep outsmarting terrorists in their changed strategies.
He said, "this would ensure they defeat every form of new ideology or strategies that the remnants of terrorists and veiled agents may wish to adopt in the nearest future to create an impression of resurgence again."
He said this respite is not only felt in the Northeast region, but it has berthed in other states/cities in the country previously tormented and terrorized by the Islamic extremist sect, Boko Haram terrorists.

The latest Acer Swift 3 SF314-59-75QC laptop is an excellent ultraportable for the masses, featuring a sleek design, better hardware, accessible price and all-day battery life
Sleek, portable design
An excellent multitasker
Affordable for an ultrabook
Hum-hum speakers
Not a great gamer
The Acer Swift 3 laptop isn't the flashiest device or the most powerful, but id does offer real value for the buck. In fact, what the Swift 3 lacks, it makes up for in functionality. For office and college use, this mainstream laptop uses an 11th generation Intel Core i7 CPU with Intel Iris Xe Graphics to get the work done without complications. And, if you're always on the move, the over 15 hours of battery life is a boon.
Plus, it's priced aggressively, which should excite most budget-savvy shoppers. However, with speakers located on the bottom of the laptop, you don't expect an audio experience that you can't call immersive. However, when you consider the great performance, newer components and battery life, the Acer SF314-59-75QC is certainly one of the best laptops around.

Acer picks on the Apple MacBook Air in designing this year's Acer Swift 3. A minimalist design with a thin, lightweight aluminum chassis that feels familiar, especially if you've used earlier Acer Swift 3 models. It sports a matte-silver finish with a polished Acer logo on the back, and the rest of the laptop exudes luxury with the metallic chassis.
It weighs 2.7 pounds and measures 12.7 x 8.6 x 0.6 inches, making the device surprisingly portable without a flimsy feel. The SF314-59-75QC features a 14-inch Full HD (1920 x 1080) display, that, while not the brightest in the market, is more than enough for most common tasks., You can binge on Netflix for hours on end, and you an even view it in direct sunlight.
As for ports, the 2020 Acer Swift 3 14 packs a USB 2.0, a USB 3.0, and a USB-C Thunderbolt 3 port, alongside an HDMI port and headphone/mic jack. Like the Acer Swift 5, this one lacks an SD card reader or optical drive, but that's not a feature most users need to use nowadays.
Keyboard & Touchpad
The Swift 3's island-style keyboard has responsive, chiclet keys and a Windows Hello-enabled fingerprint scanner. For some, the keyboard is fairly cramped, but at this price point, we can say the experience is one of the best you can get around. Again, being a 14-inch laptop, the keys are well spaced and the black keys are backlit with soft white for better visibility.
Below the keyboard is a good size touchpad that responds well during everyday, general use. It handles Windows 10 swipes and you can get away with basic gaming sessions, including Stellaris and Civilization VI, but anything above that, you'll need a separate mouse or gamepad.
Acer SF314-59-75QC performance
The Acer Swift 3's 11th Gen Intel Core i7-1165G7 processor, 8GB RAM and 256GB NVMe SSD storage are a perfect match for everyday computing tasks at home, office or college. As configured, it can handle a deluge of 31 Google Chrome tabs (sis playing 1080p YouTube videos) without a glitch. It's worth noting that the laptop's fans start kicking when you pull the 23rd Chrome tab, but its barely audible. So, if you're constantly leaving too many tabs open for your own good – the Swift 3 will easily handle your resource heavy habits.
With Intel's Iris Xe graphics card, the Swift 3 can handle basic games like Dirt 3 at over 44 fps, and you can use it for basic graphics tasks hustle free. Otherwise, intensive gaming won't be a good idea, just stick with less-demanding tasks, like basic photo editing and video editing.
If you need to play games on the move, you can check out our Editors' Choice for budget gaming laptops, the Acer Predator Helios 300, that features a 10th Gen Intel Core i7-10750H processor and Nvidia's RTX 2060 graphics card.
The biggest improvement we're seeing over last year's Acer Aspire E15 comes in the battery department. Apparently, even last year's Swift 3 didn't have a battery that crossed the 10-hour mark. Acer claims that the SF314-59-75QC can last up to 16 hours on a single charge, but in real-world use, you can get away with 13 hours 41 minutes. That's almost double the HP Pavilion 15, that features almost similar hardware and rings the same price.
The Acer Swift 3 isn't the fastest ultraportable to beat the Dell XPS 13 or the Apple MacBook Pro, and it weighs a few ounces to be considered the lightest. However, it undercuts its closest competitors by offering the same hardware and features, without being too expensive.
Acer Swift 3 Intel Evo Thin & Light Laptop, 14" Full HD, Intel Core i7-1165G7, Intel Iris Xe Graphics, 8GB LPDDR4X, 256GB NVMe SSD, Wi-Fi 6, Fingerprint Reader, Back-lit KB, SF314-59-75QC
Its screen makes it one of the most attractive laptops to work on, especially if you'll be doing lots of document work on this laptop. Combine that with all day battery life and the powerful 11th Gen Core i7 processor, and you have a reliable gadget that's immensely attractive. All said, if you're looking for a reliable multitasker, you can go wrong with the Acer Swift 3 SF314-59-75QC laptop.

Robin W. Smith and Emily Cubbon, students at UNC-Chapel Hill, measure the depth of the dig at the Kanawha site. About 15 university professors, students and some volunteers set up camp in June at Nassaw Town, once the home of about 200 to 300 people and about 50 native American warriors.
Fort Mill hit a major growth spurt in 2008.
By annexing the 360-acre Kanawha development and 40-acre York County Museum site and more than 2,000 acres held by Clear Springs Development, Leroy Springs and Co. and the Anne Springs Close Greenway, the town more than doubled its geographic footprint.
It wasn't a hastily made decision, though. Both projects appeared on the town's radar long before 2008. The Kanawha and museum project had been in the works since Jane Spratt McColl donated the land to the York County Culture and Heritage Foundation in 1998. Clear Springs has been developing property held by the Springs family for years, including Baxter Village and Bradley Industrial Park. Parts of Bradley were included in the annexation, although Baxter was not.
Aside from doubling the size of Fort Mill, the projects will bring commercial and industrial development to counter additional residential growth. The Clear Springs properties include Bradley and the more than 800-acre McAlhaney tract slated exclusively for industrial development, which carries much higher property tax rates than residential property. The properties also include several large tracts zoned for a mix of commercial and residential uses modeled on the Baxter Village-style new urbanism theme.

Dunelmensis Award
The Dunelmensis Award is given by the University's Senate to a Durham alumnus or alumna for meritorious and exceptional service in support of the University, particularly for our institutional advancement and for enhancing the University's reputation, nationally and internationally.
Previous Dunelmensis Award Recipients
2010 - Robert Klein (Grey, 1972)
2010 - Graham Barker (Van Mildert, 1980)
2012 - Henry Dyson (Grey, 1977)
2013 - Stephen Gregory (Grey, 1969)
2016 - Ocean Wang (Ustinov, 2009)
2016 - Patrick Salaun (Hatfield, 1967)

2018 - Sir Peter Ogden (University, 1968)
2018 - Mark Hillery (Collingwood, 1988)
Dunelmensis Award Recipients 2016
This year, 2016, sees the 150th anniversary of the first alumni society at Durham. To mark this occasion three Dunelmensis awards will be conferred throughout the year.
On Friday 13 May, at the Vice-Chancellor's Reception in Beijing, Ocean Wang (Ustinov, 2009) became the youngest alumnus, and the first Durham University Business School graduate, to be presented with a Dunelmensis award.
Ocean is recognised as Durham University Business School's most dedicated ambassador. A Durham MBA and Chair of the School's International Committee in China, he has been instrumental in connecting the University with our Chinese alumni, who are our largest population outside of the UK.
On Saturday 4 June the University hosted the first ever Celebration of Alumni Volunteering. The event, held during National Volunteer Week, saw the second Dunelmensis award of 2016 conferred to Patrick Salaun (Hatfield, 1967).
Patrick has supported Durham in a variety of roles for a number of decades; first as a Dunelm Society committee member, as Chair during the nineties, and most recently as President.
Patrick was the familiar figure sitting at an un-tented table on Palace Green during graduation week in the eighties, encouraging alumni to sign up to the Society. It was this single stall that eventually developed into the voluminous marquee that greets new graduates today. Patrick also created the database of names that formed the basis of the alumni database that the University still holds.
Now aged 87, Lilian Groves (Education, Hild Bede, 1973-75) continues to be active in College exactly 70 years since she first arrived here: she is a member of the Boards of the Hild Bede Trust and the Caedmon Ceolfrid Trust, a member of College Council and Vice President of the Alumni Association.
Lilian has an outstanding record of service to the College of St Hild and St Bede and to the University, of whose core values she is in many ways the embodiment. By her activity in fields that were unusual for women at the time and her continued involvement with the Cathedral, she has done much to promote the College, University and City on a national and international level. It is particularly fitting, given the long history of her service to the education of women, that she is the first woman to receive it.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 23, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Wiley has expanded its Transparent Peer Review project with the addition of ten further leading international journals. Clarivate companies - Publons, the world's largest peer review platform and ScholarOne, the leading manuscript submission system - launched the scholarly industry's first scalable open peer review workflow system from peer review through to revision and publication decision with Wiley in September 2018.
This expansion demonstrates the robustness of this new workflow solution that enables transparent publication of an article's complete peer review process — from initial review and response through to revision and final publication decision. In addition, alongside the published article, readers can review a comprehensive peer review history. Each element of the peer review process has also been assigned its own digital object identifier (DOI), enabling future authors to easily reference and cite relevant peer review content.
Chris Graf, Director, Research Integrity and Publishing Ethics at Wiley, commented: "The integrity of research is paramount for the scholarly publishing system and it is vital that we are able to provide the best services and resources to support the ongoing sustainable growth of our publishing programme and the wider scholarly publishing ecosystem. The first phase of this pilot has proved very positive and provided incredibly valuable insight. We will continue to share our findings on how this initiative is progressing—our goal is that this initiative can continue to scale, involving more journals and other publishers in the future."
Andrew Preston, Managing Director, Publons, said: "We are proud to be scaling out the transparent review initiative alongside Wiley. Our recently released Global State of Peer Review report highlights the growing demand for increased transparency in peer review, particularly amongst younger researchers. The first phase of the pilot had even better opt in rates than we expected, confirming researcher demand for transparency, and ran smoothly, confirming that our technology will scale. We look forward to deploying this further and bringing transparent peer review to journals across a broad range of disciplines."
Examples of some of the first articles published during the first phase of the initiative are available here, e.g., 'Genetic variant spectrum in 265 Chinese patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis', and its associated open review content here.

Japan protests Russian military drills on disputed Kuril Islands
dpoint | 13/03/2019 11:01
The Russian military on Tuesday launched an exercise on Etorofu and Kunashiri, two of the four Russian-held islands off Hokkaido claimed by Japan, according to the Interfax news agency. Some 500 troops from the machine gun and artillery units participated in the drill, including practicing the prevention of enemy landings, the Russian news agency said.
The exercise involved some 70 types of military equipment, including T-72 tanks and mortars. Moscow is strengthening its military capabilities on the four disputed islands, treating them as a major military foothold in Russia's Far East.
Last week, the eastern district said it conducted a drill involving more than 350 troops on the Kuril Islands, which comprise an island chain called Chishima in Japan, and the four disputed islands.

Self storage can look simple on the surface. You don't have to deal with many of the issues other businesses have to deal with, such as inventory, scheduling staffing, supply consumables, and more. However, a fatal mistake for many is jumping in too soon because self storage development isn't just a matter of build it and they will come. Being sufficiently prepared is of utmost importance. With countless facilities across the United States, we specialize in storage unit construction management, from concept to completion.
