UCI Research Center to Combine Biology and Math Disciplines
Researchers at UC Irvine's new MathBioSys Center on Multiscale Cell Fate will examine how mathematical concepts can be used for the field of biology, specifically what determines the differentiation of cells.
The National Science Foundation and the Simons Foundation have each contributed $5 million for the center. It will be led by mathematicians Jun Allard, John Lowengrub and Qing Nie.
Studies will be conducted by students and faculty from five UC Irvine schools and centered on cellular complexity in skin, stem cell specification control and neural crest cell dynamics. The center will also be engaged in providing project awards, a visiting scientist program, a high school program and and opportunity for young researchers to present their findings at symposiums.
UCI Center on Stress and Health Awarded $6.3 Million
UC Irvine's Center on Stress & Health have received $8 million in grants from the National Institute of Health to develop and test health interventions for stress and pain in children facing medical procedures and for individuals, and their families, battling cancer.
Michelle Fortier, associate professor of anesthesiology & perioperative care and co-director of the UCI Center on Stress & Health, was awarded a $3.2 million NIH grant over five years. Her electronic intervention is called Pain Buddy and works to examine the effectiveness of a web-based pain and symptom management tool for children receiving primarily outpatient cancer treatment.
The center's director, Dr. Zeev Kain, Chancellor's Professor of anesthesiology & perioperative care, was awarded $3.1 million over five years. His creation is an interactive computer website for children undergoing outpatient surgery as well as their families. His program, WebTIPS, will develop personalized plans for alleviating anxiety and pain, taking into account medical and psychological factors, such as the surgical procedure and the parents' coping and caring skills.
The Center on Stress & Health is devoted to discovering ways to improve quality of life for children and adults undergoing surgery and children, along with their families, with cancer.
UCI Social Ecology Celebrates 25th Anniversary
The 2042 25th Anniversary Celebration will honor the School of Social Ecology's accomplishments along with revealing its vision for the next 25 years. The event will be at the Irvine Barclay Theater on Wednesday, June 6, at 5 p.m.
A welcome will be give by Nancy Guerra, dean of Social Ecology, celebrating their 25 years of achievements. Then, a description of the school's vision will be given by the associate dean for research and international programs, Richard Matthew. The keynote address will be given by NASA astronaut Steve. L Smith, who also won the 2018 Human Security Award.
The event will conclude at 7 p.m. with a light buffet and performance by the Irvine Barclay Theatre Band.
UCI Study Finds In-Home Stroke Therapy Just as Effective as In-Clinic Therapy
In a UCI study conducted in eleven U.S. sites, researchers found that for stroke patients needing arm motor therapy, telecommunicated home therapy was as equally effective as in-clinic therapy.
124 stroke patients all around 61 years of age underwent six weeks of arm motor therapy, with half receiving traditional in-clinic therapy with a doctor and half subjected to the same therapy supervised in-home by a videoconferenced telemedicine system. Thirty days after the end of therapy, the in-clinic group improved their arm-motor status by 8.4 points on the Fugl-Meyer scale, while the home therapy group improved by 7.9 points. The Fugl-Meyer scale measures arm motor ability from zero to 66, with higher numbers being better. The study also found that patients did not need any additional computer skills to operate the telerehabilitation systems.
Research was presented by Dr. Steven C. Cramer, UCI neurologist and professor of neurology at the UCI School of Medicine, at the recent 2018 European Stroke Organisation Conference in Gothenburg, Sweden.
"Motor deficits are a major contributor to post-stroke disability, and we know that occupational and physical therapy improve patient outcomes in a supervised rehabilitation program," said Cramer in a UCI press release. "Since many patients receive suboptimal therapy for reasons that include cost, availability and difficulty with travel, we wanted to determine whether a comprehensive in-home telehealth therapy program could be as effective as in-clinic rehabilitation."
Cramer believes in-home teletherapy could potentially lead to longer treatment cycles, pairing telerehab with long-term doses of a restorative drug, treating other neurological domains affected by stroke, or even building smart homes for stroke recovery.
An aging population will likely increase the demand for stroke treatment and rehabilitation in the coming years.

Maharashtra: BMC orders closure of all liquor shops in Mumbai as social distancing norms were flouted
Mumbai, May 06: Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) Commissioner Praveen Pardeshi has banned the sale of liquor in the city altogether. Due to this, all liquor shops in the city are closed on Wednesday.
Praveen Pardeshi issued a new government order (GO) on Wednesday, completely prohibiting the sale of liquor.
Similarly, the state government has also stopped the order to open 5 shops in a single row.
Praveen Pardeshi said that the number of coronavirus cases in Mumbai has mounted around 10,000. After the liquor shops were allowed to open, there has been a huge crowd gathered at the wine shop. Due to non-compliance of social distancing during the sale of alcohol, liquor and other shops are being banned.
On Sunday, the state government announced a waiver of lockdown in the state. With this, liquor shops were started on Monday.
Commissioner of the Excise Department Kantilal Umap said that on Monday and Tuesday, liquor worth Rs 62 crore 55 lakh was sold in Mumbai. All the liquor shops in the city have been closed following the Mumbai Commissioner's Wednesday order.

A Woman of Her Time: Memories of My Mother
Louise Dupré
Liedewy Hawke
In this memoir, the distinguished feminist author and poet Louise Dupré conjures up the tragedies and joys of her mother's life--and does so not only in the personal context of the family but as a woman of her time in the dramatically changing backdrop of Quebec before, during, and after the heady days of the Quiet Revolution. A compelling read that will expand your understanding of the complexity of Quebec society over the past century, as well as your appreciation of the great, wise, and compassionate Louise Dupré.
Louise Dupré has published twenty books, including Plus haut que les flammes and La main hantée which both won the Governor General's Award for poetry. Her play Tout comme elle was produced in French in Montreal and in English in Toronto at the 2011 Luminato Festival. Many of her books have been translated in English and other languages. Louise Dupré is member of the Academy of Letters of Quebec and of the Royal Society of Canada. In December 2014, she was appointed to the Order of Canada for her contributions to Quebec literature as a poet, novelist, playwright, essayist and professor. She lives in Montreal.
Winner of both the Canada Council Translation Prize and the John Glassco Translation Prize, Liedewy Hawke has been nominated four times for the Governor General's Literary Award for Translation and is a recent winner of the White Pine Non-Fiction Award. One of her translations was featured on the BBC Radio 2 Book Club, and she has also translated works by prominent Dutch and Flemish authors as well as three previous works by Louise Dupré. She lives in Toronto.

Q&A: Life, politics, and province
ALL LIT UP
Celebrated Québécois author Louise Dupré's memoir, A Woman of Her Time: Memories of My Mother is an intimate homage to a woman who insisted on living a life on her own terms. It is also political, hard not to be in a province when the Quiet Revolution and the collapse of the domination of the Catholic Church shook up lives and changed futures. Below, we share an interview about the life of her mother, the institutionalization of her maternal aunt, Quebec, and more.
THIS BOOK IS FOCUSED ON YOUR MOTHER. WHEN DID YOU WRITE IT?
Louise Dupré: I had the privilege of being with my mother at the hospital when she passed away. Two months later, I felt the need to write about this terrible night. I wrote the first few pages without knowing it would become a book. Then I asked myself: "Who was my mother?" And especially, "Who was my mother before she was my mother?" One never knows who is his or her mother. I decided to keep going answering my questions.

Can Hepatitis B And C Be Cured
Hepatitis B What Is It
How Do Doctors Treat Hepatitis B
What is Hepatitis B? | How is Hepatitis B Transmitted?
Doctors typically dont treat hepatitis B unless it becomes chronic. Doctors may treat chronic hepatitis B with antiviral medicines that attack the virus.
Not everyone with chronic hepatitis B needs treatment. If blood tests show that hepatitis B could be damaging a persons liver, a doctor may prescribe antiviral medicines to lower the chances of liver damage and complications.
Medicines that you take by mouth include
A medicine that doctors can give as a shot is peginterferon alfa-2a .
The length of treatment varies. Hepatitis B medicines may cause side effects. Talk with your doctor about the side effects of treatment. Tell your doctor before taking any other prescription or over-the-counter medicines.
For safety reasons, you also should talk with your doctor before using dietary supplements, such as vitamins, or any complementary or alternative medicines or medical practices.
Abnormalities In Heme Metabolism And Excretion
One way to understand jaundice pathophysiology is to organize it into disorders that cause increased bilirubin production or decreased bilirubin excretion .
Prehepatic pathophysiology
Prehepatic jaundice is attributed to a pathological increase in bilirubin production. The pathophysiology is quite simple an increased rate of erythrocyte hemolysis increased bilirubin production increased deposition of bilirubin in mucosal tissue appearance of yellow hue.
Hepatic pathophysiology
Hepatic jaundice is due to significant damage to liver function hepatic cell death and necrosis occur impaired bilirubin transport across hepatocytes. Bilirubin transport across may be impaired at any point between hepatocellular uptake of unconjugated bilirubin and hepatocellular transport of conjugated bilirubin into the gallbladder. In addition, subsequent cellular due to inflammation causes mechanical obstruction of intrahepatic biliary tract. Most commonly, interferences in all three major steps of bilirubin metabolism uptake, conjugation, and excretion usually occur in hepatocellular jaundice. Thus, an abnormal rise in both unconjugated and conjugated bilirubin will be present. Because excretion is usually impaired to the greatest extent, conjugated hyperbilirubinemia predominates.
Posthepatic pathophysiology
Present Present
Laboratory findings depend on the cause of jaundice:
Is It Okay To Get An Extra Dose Of Hepatitis B Vaccine
Yes. Although extra doses of vaccine are not recommended, you can think of the extra dose as another chance for the immune system to see the hepatitis B virus. A vaccine is not the only time the immune system will see the virus or bacteria contained in it. People may be exposed to the virus or bacteria at school or the store or when visiting family or friends. An extra dose of vaccine is like one more exposure, except the difference is that the virus or bacteria in any vaccine has been made safe, so it wont make you ill.

What Is Involved In A Liver Transplant
A liver transplant is considered necessary when the liver is damaged and cannot function or in some cases of liver cancer. Your liver is very important. It is responsible for many functions related to making sure that your body stays healthy and is able to digest foods.
You may be eligible for a transplant if you have chronic hepatitis B infection or some of the diseases that may result from it, including liver cancer and cirrhosis. You will have to complete testing and be evaluated before being approved for a transplant. It is likely that you will be placed on a waiting list while an appropriate organ is found.
Donated livers come from two types of donors: living and deceased. Because the liver can regenerate, it is possible to use part of a liver for transplant. The remaining sections in both the donor and the receiver will grow into livers of adequate size.
People who get liver transplants must take anti-rejection drugs for the rest of their lives. These drugs make you more susceptible to infection. However, liver transplants have become more successful over time and continue to improve.
Diagnosis Of Hepatitis B
Blood tests are available to determine if you are or have been infected with hepatitis B. It may take 6 months from the time of infection before a blood test can detect antibodies to hepatitis B, so follow-up testing may be required. During this 6-month period, until you know whether you are infected or not, take action to prevent potential infection of other people.
There are also tests that can assess liver damage from hepatitis B. The interpretation of these tests can be complicated and specialist advice is needed, so talk to your doctor.
All pregnant women are tested for hepatitis B. If you are found to have chronic hepatitis B, your doctor can help reduce the risk of transferring the infection to your newborn child.

What Are The Complications Of Hepatitis B
The course of hepatitis B infection depends mostly on the age at which a person is infected.
People infected as infants are likely to develop long term infection and can get complications such as scarring of the liver or liver cancer. Infants have a 9 in 10 chance and children have a 3 in 10 chance of developing a chronic, lifelong infection.
People infected as teenagers or adults are likely to become unwell with symptoms , but have a smaller chance of developing a chronic infection. Others develop a silent infection, without any symptoms.
Most people infected as adults clear the virus from the body within 6 months. They develop immunity to future hepatitis B infections and do not develop long-term liver damage.
However, approximately 1 in 20 adults cannot clear the virus and develop chronic hepatitis B. They are at risk of developing complications such as cirrhosis and liver cancer in the longer term.
Living With Hepatitis B
Risk of chronic infection caused by hepatitis B is related to your age, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Protection . Approximately 90% of infected infants become chronically infected compared with 2%-6% of adult, reports the CDC.
Chronic hepatitis B infection can lead to serious health issues. If you have it, you should be monitored regularly by a doctor. This means you should check in with your doctor at least once or twice a year. Some people who have chronic hepatitis B infection require medicine, but others do not. Your doctor can discuss treatment options with you.
If you have chronic hepatitis B infection, it will likely stay in your blood and liver for a lifetime, according to The Hepatitis B Foundation. This means that you could pass the virus to others, even if you dont feel sick.
The most important thing to remember is that hepatitis B is a chronic medical condition that can be successfully managed if you take good care of your health and your liver, reports the Hepatitis B Foundation. You should expect to live a long, full life.
Don't Miss: What Happens To Your Body When You Have Hepatitis C
Symptoms Of Hepatitis B
Many people with hepatitis B will not experience any symptoms and may fight off the virus without realising they had it.
If symptoms do develop, they tend to happen 2 or 3 months after exposure to the hepatitis B virus.
Symptoms of hepatitis B include:
flu-like symptoms, including tiredness, a fever, and general aches and pains
tummy pain
yellowing of the skin and eyes
These symptoms will usually pass within 1 to 3 months , although occasionally the infection can last for 6 months or more .
Inhibitors Of Reverse Transcriptase
The Truth about Hepatitis B
Although viruses become parts of their host cell during their life cycle, basic research on their replication mechanisms identified various virus-specific biochemical pathways that could be targets of pharmaceutical intervention. The nucleoside analogue acyclovir against herpes simplex and varicella zoster virus was the first example of a successful nontoxic antiviral drug taylored to the biochemistry of its viral target. Merigan and Robinson turned in the late 1970s to then available inhibitors of DNA polymerases when they realised that interferon alone would not help the majority of patients. However, these early drugs, though effective, were highly toxic, in particular to the mitochondrial DNA polymerase . With the advent of HIV in the developed countries, research on antiviral therapy got a strong boost leading to the first drug azidothymidine in 1987 which inhibited more specifically the reverse transcriptase of HIV, but it was unfortunately inactive against HBV.

Identification Of The Hbv Receptors
In 1987, Mary Ann Sells and George Acs succeeded in generating the stably HBV-transfected hepatoma cell line HepG2.2.15 which was permissive for replication of infectious HBV and has been crucial for many studies on HBV, in particular for development of antiviral drugs . But this and similar cell lines did not facilitate the search for the factors mediating efficient attachment and entry of HBV. Many publications claimed to have detected functional receptors for HBV, but the search for them remained unsuccessful for decades. Only recently, Camille Sureau could prove by a meticulous mutational analysis that the previously by J. P. Allain identified heparansulfate proteoglycan binding capacity of the small HBsAg protein is essential for infectivity and that the binding sites coincide with neutralizing epitopes of HBsAg . However, this receptor cannot explain the peculiar species specificity of HBV because it is present in livers of all mammalians.
Chronic Hepatitis B Complications
Chronic hepatitis B can lead to
cirrhosis, a condition in which scar tissue replaces healthy liver tissue and prevents your liver from working normally. Scar tissue also partly blocks the flow of blood through the liver. As cirrhosis gets worse, the liver begins to fail.
liver failure, in which your liver is badly damaged and stops working. Liver failure is also called end-stage liver disease. People with liver failure may require a liver transplant.
liver cancer. Your doctor may suggest blood tests and an ultrasound or another type of imaging test to check for liver cancer. Finding cancer at an early stage improves the chance of curing the cancer.

What Are The Symptoms Of Hbv
Hepatitis B virus can cause an acute illness with symptoms that last several weeks, including yellowing of the skin and eyes , dark urine, extreme fatigue, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. Most of the time HBV infection is ASYMPTOMATIC.
Joint pains, muscle aches, rash, and jaundice may occur in some people. People can take several months to a year to recover from the symptoms. These people may not know that they are infected, and may therefore not go and see a doctor. People with chronic hepatitis B infection may later develop serious problems like liver cancer and liver failure. These people may not know that they are infected, and may therefore not go and see a doctor. People with chronic hepatitis B infection may later develop serious problems like liver cancer and liver failure.
Hepatitis B Vs Hepatitis C
Hepatitis has many different types. HBV and the hepatitis C virus have both acute and chronic forms.
The main difference between HBV and HCV is how they spread from person to person. Although HCV is transmissible via sexual activity, this is rare. HCV usually spreads when blood that carries the virus comes into contact with blood that does not.

What Are The Symptoms
Symptoms can take 2 to 6 months to appear.
Many people who are infected with hepatitis B have either no symptoms or only mild symptoms.
Symptoms of acute hepatitis B can include fatigue, loss of appetite, joint pain, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, and dark urine. A small number of people will develop jaundice .
Some people develop chronic hepatitis B and most remain contagious for the rest of their lives. Chronic infection may lead to cirrhosis and/or liver cancer. Most people with chronic hepatitis B are unaware of their infection.
How Is It Spread
Hepatitis A is spread when a person ingests fecal mattereven in microscopic amountsfrom contact with objects, food, or drinks contaminated by feces or stool from an infected person.
Hepatitis B is primarily spread when blood, semen, or certain other body fluids- even in microscopic amounts from a person infected with the hepatitis B virus enters the body of someone who is not infected. The hepatitis B virus can also be transmitted from:
Birth to an infected mother
Sex with an infected person
Sharing equipment that has been contaminated with blood from an infected person, such as needles, syringes, and even medical equipment, such as glucose monitors
Sharing personal items such as toothbrushes or razors
Poor infection control has resulted in outbreaks in health care facilities
Hepatitis C is spread when blood from a person infected with the Hepatitis C virus even in microscopic amounts enters the body of someone who is not infected. The hepatitis C virus can also be transmitted from:
Sharing equipment that has been contaminated with blood from an infected person, such as needles and syringes
Receiving a blood transfusion or organ transplant before 1992

What Is Chronic Hepatitis B
Doctors refer to hepatitis B infections as either acute or chronic:
An acute HBV infection is a short-term illness that clears within 6 months of when a person is exposed to the virus.
A person who still has HBV after 6 months is said to have a chronic hepatitis B infection. This is a long-term illness, meaning the virus stays in the body and causes lifelong illness. An estimated 850,000 to more than 2 million people in the U.S. have chronic HBV.
The younger someone is when infected, the greater the chances for chronic hepatitis B.
British Columbia Specific Information
Hepatitis B is a virus that attacks the liver. It can cause serious disease, including permanent liver damage , and is also the main cause of liver cancer.
The hepatitis B vaccine provides immunity for at least 10 years and likely for a lifetime when completing the full series. There are currently no recommendations for a healthy person to receive a booster for this vaccine if they have completed the full series.

Is There A Cure For Chronic Hepatitis B
Currently, there is no complete cure for hepatitis B. But when managed properly, those living with the virus can expect to live a normal life. Maintaining a healthy diet and avoiding alcoholic beverages and tobacco products are crucial components in managing the disease.
You should also visit a doctor familiar with hepatitis B at least annuallythough twice a year might be best to monitor your liver through blood tests and medical imaging. As with most diseases, detecting it early leads to a better outcome. If youre exposed to the virus, you should get an antibody injection within 12 hours of exposure.
Can Hepatitis B Be Prevented Or Avoided
The best way to prevent hepatitis B is to always have protected sex and, if you use intravenous drugs, avoid sharing needles.
A vaccine is available to prevent hepatitis B. It is now routinely given in the first year of life to all newborn infants. It is safe and requires 3 shots over a 6-month period. This vaccine should be given to people who are at high risk for this illness, such as healthcare workers, all children, people who travel to areas where the infection is widespread, drug users, and those who have multiple sex partners.
Recommended Reading: Colloidal Silver And Hepatitis C
Why It Is Used
Hepatitis B virus causes a liver infection that can lead to serious complications, including liver cancer. It is common in people throughout the world, particularly in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa.
The Canadian National Advisory Committee on Immunization recommends hepatitis B immunization for all children. Pregnant women and other adults who do not have immunity and who have a high chance of exposure should be vaccinated.
What Are The Symptoms Of Hepatitis B
Symptoms of hepatitis B can range from mild to severe. If you have a mild case of hepatitis, you may not even realize that you have it. It may not cause any symptoms, or may only cause symptoms similar to the stomach flu. The symptoms of hepatitis B may include:
Jaundice .
Joint pain.
Recommended Reading: How Can You Contact Hepatitis C
What Is The Treatment For Hepatitis B
Prevention is recommended by receiving a vaccine for HBV.
Receiving an injection of the hepatitis B immune globulin within 12 hours of coming in contact with the virus may help prevent the development of the disease.
At present, there is no specific treatment for patients with acute hepatitis B. Acute infection is usually short and will often resolve on its own. Your health care provider may recommend rest, and adequate nutrition and fluids to help your body fight the infection. Hospitalization may be required for patients who suffer from severe vomiting and who are unable to maintain adequate nutritional levels. It may also be required to prevent the development of complications.
While chronic infection cannot be cured, there are two standard treatments in Canada that may control the virus and prevent further damage to the liver.
Antiviral medications can fight the virus and slow damage to the liver.
Interferon which may be given for short periods and if effective, results in suppression of the virus.

Ein Schornstein- oder ein Kaminbrand entsteht, wenn sich im Schornstein abgelagerter Ruß aus unvollständiger Verbrennung oder kondensierter Holzteer entzünden.

Dabei kann es zu Temperaturen von bis zu 1200 °C im Schornsteinzug kommen.

Allgemeines

Durch unvollständige Verbrennung entsteht
 Schmierruß, Glanzruß oder Hartruß bei festen Brennstoffen bzw.
 Flockenruß bei flüssigen und gasförmigen Brennstoffen.
Im ersten Fall ist der eigentliche Ruß (= reiner Kohlenstoff, staubförmig) in hochsiedendem Kondensat klebrig gebunden, im anderen liegt der Kohlenstoff sehr fein verteilt und unter Einlagerung von reichlich Luft vor. Beides fördert die Entzündung und das Weiterbrennen von Ruß.

Unvollständige Verbrennung findet statt,
 wenn man nasses Holz oder andere ungeeignete Brennstoffe (z. B. Fette) verheizt und/oder
 wenn Brennstoffe unter Sauerstoffmangel verbrennen,
 wenn Heizgaswege und Verbindungsstücke der angeschlossene Feuerstätten verschmutzt sind,
 wenn Kachelöfen fehlgeplant sind und der vorhandene Schornsteinauftrieb den notwendigen Förderdruck zur Überwindung der Widerstände nicht leistet.

Auch bei Heizkesseln für feste Brennstoffe besteht diese Gefahr: Wird keine Wärme abgenommen, fahren die Kessel in den Teillastbereich; durch eine gedrosselte Luftzufuhr erfolgt die Verbrennung unvollständig: Kohlenmonoxid und Ruß entstehen. Daher werden seit den 1990er Jahren Pufferspeicher eingesetzt, die einen durch mangelnde Wärmeabnahme verursachten Teillastbetrieb oder ein Abregeln der Verbrennungsluft verhindern.

Die Ablagerung von Rußpartikeln im Schornstein wird begünstigt durch einen deutlich zu großen oder zu kleinen Schornsteinquerschnitt:

 Ein zu kleiner Querschnitt bremst die Abgase; sie brauchen länger auf ihrem Weg bis zur Austrittsöffnung; im Abgas enthaltene Rußpartikel neigen eher dazu, sich an den Schornsteininnenwänden abzulagern.

 Ein zu großer Querschnitt des Schornsteins führt dazu, dass die Schornsteininnenwände nach dem Beginn des Heizvorganges relativ lange kühl bleiben und bietet eine größere Fläche zur Kondensation. Im Abgas enthaltene Feuchtigkeit und Rußpartikel neigen dazu, an den Schornstein-Innenwänden zu kondensieren bzw. sich abzulagern.

Die Kondensation führt gelegentlich zur Versottung. Dabei werden die Mörtelfugen durch chemische Prozesse in Gips umgewandelt. Verantwortlich hierfür sind maßgeblich H2SO3 und H2SO4 (Schwefelsäureverbindungen). Durch solche Mauerwerksfugen können heiße Rauchgase entweichen, die zusammen mit Funkenflug das trockene Holz eines Dachstuhls, dort hängende Spinnweben oder auf dem Dachboden gelagerten Hausrat entzünden können. Durch die
hohen Temperaturen und die starke Längenausdehnung des Schornsteins kann es auch zu Rissen kommen. Dadurch kann die Standfähigkeit von Schornsteinen gefährdet sein. Bei Längsrissen besteht die Gefahr, dass Teile der Schornsteinwange ausbrechen und der Schornsteinbrand ins Gebäude übergreift.

Moderne Schornsteine sind wärmegedämmt: Das abgasberührende Innenrohr (zum Beispiel aus Keramik oder Edelstahl) ist mit einer stehenden Luftschicht hinterlüftet oder von einer dämmenden Schicht aus Mineralwolle umschlossen. Vor dem Jahr 1970 baute man auch Keramikrohre, die von Granulatsteinchen (Perliten) umgeben waren. Diese Schornsteine weisen gute Wärmedurchgangswiderstände auf; an ihren Innenwangen kondensiert weniger als an nicht wärmegedämmten einschaligen (zum Beispiel gemauerten) Schornsteinen.

Moderne mehrschalige Schornsteinsysteme sind nur bedingt widerstandsfähig gegen Schornsteinbrände. Während sich die metallischen Innenschalen regelmäßig deformieren, besteht bei keramischen Einsatzrohren die Gefahr von Rissen durch kinetische Kräfte.

Gefahren
Bei einem Schornsteinbrand werden die umliegenden Wände derart erhitzt, dass angrenzendes Mobiliar (z. B. Schränke) in Brand geraten kann. Es kann bis zu 6 Stunden dauern, bis die Hitze das Mauerwerk des Schornsteins durchdringt.

Bei unsachgemäßen Löschversuchen mit Wasser können erhebliche Schäden auftreten und es kann zu Verletzungen (Verbrühung) kommen. Des Weiteren besteht die Gefahr einer Rauchgasvergiftung, wenn der Abzug des Schornsteins nicht mehr gegeben ist und der Rauch z. B. durch Reinigungsöffnungen in die Wohnräume eindringt.

Auslöser des Brandes

Mehrere Faktoren bzw. deren Zusammenwirken können einen ungewollten Schornsteinbrand hervorrufen:
 Flammen können in Verbindungsstücke (Ofenrohre) oder Züge der Feuerstätte hineinschlagen und dort befindlichen Ruß entzünden
 Glut wird durch starken Schornsteinzug in Verbindungsstück oder Schornstein hineingetragen und entzündet dort den Ruß
 Langflammiges Brandgut (z. B. Nadelhölzer, vor allem deren Zweige) oder Brandgut, das den Brennraum extrem heiß macht

Brandbekämpfung

Der Schornsteinbrand ist der einzige Brand, der in aller Regel nicht gelöscht wird.

Ein Schornsteinbrand darf nicht mit Wasser gelöscht werden. 1 Liter Wasser ergäben bei einer Temperatur von 100 °C ca. 1700 Liter Wasserdampf. Wenn man Wasser in den Schornstein schütten oder spritzen würde, käme es zu einem schlagartigen Druckanstieg im Schornstein, der ihn schwer beschädigen könnte.

Möglichkeiten zur Brandbekämpfung sind:
 Den Schornstein unter ständiger Beobachtung ("kontrolliert") ausbrennen lassen. Dabei sollte man die Luftzufuhr "von unten" minimieren, also die Tür des Ofens geschlossen halten. Falls an dem brennenden Schornstein mehrere Öfen angeschlossen sind, gilt das für alle Öfen.
 Mit Kaminkehrerwerkzeug den brennenden Ruß von den Wänden des Schornsteinzuges lösen und diesen am Fuß des Schornsteins ausbrennen lassen oder dem Schornstein entnehmen und außerhalb des Schornsteins (zum Beispiel im Heizungskeller) ablöschen.
 Da der Ruß durch die hohen Verbrennungstemperaturen aufquellen kann, ist ein Verschluss des Schornsteines mit geeignetem Gerät zu verhindern.
 Pulverlöscher sind sehr effizient einsetzbar. Ein möglicher negativer Nebeneffekt ist aber die hohe Verschmutzung der Umgebung.
 Der Schornstein kann mit Kohlendioxid geflutet werden.

Es empfiehlt sich, die Feuerwehr sofort nach Entdecken des Schornsteinbrandes zu benachrichtigen, diese wird dann im Regelfall den zuständigen bevollmächtigten Bezirksschornsteinfeger mitalarmieren.

Nachdem das Feuer gelöscht wurde, sollte der Schornstein noch mehrere Stunden beobachtet werden, da er noch sehr viel Hitze ausstrahlt und angrenzende brennbare Bauteile entzünden könnte.

Geschichte

Der Verhütung eines Schornsteinbrandes dienten beispielsweise Anordnungen unter Pfalzgraf Karl IV. aus dem Jahr 1772 im Zusammenhang mit häuslichen Feuerstätten. Nach gleichzeitigen Bauvorschriften durften keine Holzschornsteine mehr errichtet, keine hölzernen Schläuche mehr eingebaut werden, die den Rauch der Feuerstätte zum Kamin zu leiten hatten, wie es auch untersagt wurde, Ofenrohre zum Fenster hinauszuführen.

Q: GeoPandas Label Polygons Given the shape file available here: I'd like to label each polygon (county) in the map. Is this possible with GeoPandas?
import geopandas as gpd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib inline

shpfile=<Path to unzipped .shp file referenced and linked above>
c=gpd.read_file(shpfile)
c=c.loc[c['GEOID'].isin(['26161','26093','26049','26091','26075','26125','26163','26099','26115','26065'])]
c.plot()

Thanks in advance!

A: c['geometry'] is a series comprised of shapely.geometry.polygon.Polygon objects. You can verify this by checking
In [23]: type(c.ix[23, 'geometry'])
Out[23]: shapely.geometry.polygon.Polygon

From the Shapely docs there is a method representative_point() that

Returns a cheaply computed point that is guaranteed to be within the
geometric object.

Sounds ideal for a situation in which you need to label the polygon objects! You can then create a new column for your geopandas dataframe, 'coords' like so
c['coords'] = c['geometry'].apply(lambda x: x.representative_point().coords[:])
c['coords'] = [coords[0] for coords in c['coords']]

Now that you have a set of coordinates pertaining to each polygon object (each county), you can annotate your plot by iterating through your dataframe
c.plot()
for idx, row in c.iterrows():
    plt.annotate(s=row['NAME'], xy=row['coords'],
                 horizontalalignment='center')

A: no need to loop, here is how you can annotate with apply:
ax = df.plot()
df.apply(lambda x: ax.annotate(text=x['NAME'], xy=x.geometry.centroid.coords[0], ha='center'), axis=1);

New lightweight aerogel could turn a jet engine into a hairdryer
July 7, 2021 by Geordie Torr
A team of researchers at the University of Bath has developed a new lightweight material that could significantly reduce the engine noise produced by aircraft.
Weighing just 2.1 kilograms per cubic metre, the graphene oxide-polyvinyl alcohol aerogel is the lightest sound-insulating material ever manufactured.'We managed to produce such an extremely low density by using a liquid combination of graphene oxide and a polymer, which are formed with whipped air bubbles and freeze-casted,' said Michele Meo, a professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering's Materials and Structures Centre, who led the research. 'On a very basic level, the technique can be compared with whipping egg whites to create meringues – it's solid but contains a lot of air, so there is no weight or efficiency penalty to achieve big improvements in comfort and noise.'
Despite its extremely low density, the material has extremely impressive sound-absorbing capabilities.Over the 400–2500 Hz range, the material's average sound absorption coefficients are as high as 0.79.
The aerogel's combination of low density with excellent sound absorption makes it ideal as an insulator within aircraft engine nacelles – external housings – where it would reduce noise with almost no increase in overall weight. The average reduction in sound transmission can be as high as 16 decibels, which would mean that the 105-decibel roar of a jet engine taking off would be closer to that of a hairdryer.
The material is also effectively 'tuneable'; changes to the environmentally friendly manufacturing process used to produce it affect its acoustic properties, so it could potentially be made to order to increase the absorption of particular frequencies of sound. The researchers suggest that it may also have fire resistance and electromagnetic-shielding properties.
'This is clearly a very exciting material that could be applied in a number of ways – initially in aerospace but potentially in many other fields such as automotive and marine transport, as well as in building and construction,' Meo said.
A method for manufacturing the material has been published in the journal Nature Scientific Reports. The team estimates that it could be in use within 18 months.

Child's Pose (Balasana) is one of my favorite poses to practice when I feel like I need to decompress. Not only is it calming for the mind, but it is also very good for digestion, elongating the lower back and opening up the hips. There are two ways to practice Child's pose—one being with the knees together, belly and chest resting forward on the thighs with the arms stretched out overhead or to the sides, and the second being with the knees spread apart, belly and chest resting between the legs and the arms stretched overhead. If you want a greater stretch to the hips, the latter form is the best style to practice. If you want to focus more on digestion and massaging your internal organs against your thighs, the former style is the best one to do for that specific purpose. Whatever way you do this pose, you will definitely feel the grounding and resting benefits of it. By folding forward and resting your forehead to the ground and gently breathing, you are not only calming yourself but you are also giving your lower back a rest, which is an area that we tend to dump all of our weight into while sitting for long periods. By stretching your arms forward, you lend a greater stretch to the lower back, in addition to the shoulders and the arms. In general, I like to practice this pose before bed. It really helps to calm the body, mind and spirit, which creates a more peaceful night's sleep.

Pita Kewa Nacuva is a Fijian politician, who served as Speaker of the House of Representatives from June to December 2006, when a military coup deposed the government and resulted in the dissolution of Parliament.  Previously, he had served in the Cabinet as Minister for Tourism.

Nacuva, a former diplomat, was appointed Minister for Health in the interim government that was formed in July 2000 the wake of the failed Fiji coup of 2000, which deposed the elected government of Prime Minister Mahendra Chaudhry before being quashed by the Military.  In the election held to restore democracy in September 2001, he won the Nadroga-Navosa Fijian Communal Constituency for the Soqosoqo Duavata ni Lewenivanua (SDL), and was subsequently appointed Minister for Tourism.  He has also stood in for Foreign Minister Kaliopate Tavola in many of Tavola's absences from Fiji.

The Fiji Village news service announced on 21 March 2006 that the SDL had decided not to nominate Nacuva for another Parliamentary term.  He would therefore retire at the general election to be held on 6–13 May, though he did in fact make a token bid for another constituency, mainly to raise his party's profile.  Following the election, he was elected unopposed on 5 June to succeed Ratu Epeli Nailatikau as Parliamentary Speaker, a position from which incumbent members were constitutionally barred.

Pita Kewa Nacuva is a former student of Lelean Memorial School, a former Captain of the Lelean Old Boys Rugby Club and the Fiji national rugby side. He is a keen tennis player as well.

The Specials are to join Blur and New Order for a major outdoor concert at Hyde Park to mark the closing of the London 2012 Olympics this summer.
Specials bass player Horace Panter said the Coventry ska legends were excited to be involved in such a momentous event.
He said: "We have been keeping it under our pork pie hats for a month or so now.
"I think it is going to be the only chance people get to see the Specials performing in the UK this year."
Blur, due to reunite to collect their outstanding contribution gong at the Brit Awards on Tuesday, will top the bill at the show on August 12.
On Monday, Blur bass player Alex James hinted that the group's reunion performance at the Brits could be their final performance, when he said there was a feeling it could be the "last bow".
The BT London Live concert is designed to mark the end of the London Olympic Games the same day. The event will feature giant screens so fans can see the closing ceremony from the Olympic Park.
A further special guest will be announced in the coming weeks.
Tickets for the BT London Live Closing Ceremony Celebration Concert go on Friday at 9am from www.btlondonlive.com.
Another concert is to take place in Hyde Park to mark the opening ceremony on July 27. There will be free performances at the venue on other dates during the Olympics.

Q: Wordpress app page not found error for posts with hyphen in permalink I need some help related to permalinks.
I have two custom post types "books" and "authors"(created using CPT UI plugin).
i have created few authors where the permalink is generated as http://wordpressproject.localhost/author/sagar-kumar-boina,(with hyphens). This pages are giving page not found error.
But the books with hyphen in permalinks are working fine. (http://wordpressproject.localhost/book/be-with-me)
I'm trying since 2 days. can you plase help me to solve this.

A: the first step would be to flush your permalinks by simply going to settings > permalinks and re-saving them, you don't actually need to change any settings.  If this does not fix the problem let us know.
Also I noticed that you say that you've created an 'authors' CPT though the URL you provided uses 'author' ( singular ) - is that a typo?

A: author is a reserved term and core query var WordPress uses for its user system, you are creating a conflict by registering a post type with the same slug.

Hell Hath No Fury: The 13 Best Female Killers
November 30, 2018 Hud One comment
Traditionally, society leads us to believe that killers are men, victims women – even more so when people address slasher films without having seen one. But wait up, a certain movie way back when totally changed it up when it led the audience into thinking they were watching a guy kill that string of sexy teens, but then BAM! it turned out to be a middle-aged woman with a grudge.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, the adage goes, and boy – or girl – can they bring the hellfire when they want to.
Here are my 13 favourite lady killers – spoilers, obvs.
Mandy Lane (Amber Heard)
All the Boys Love Mandy Lane (2006)
Victims: 2
As the title suggests, aaaall the guys at school long to get in the pants of Mandy Lane – future Mrs Johnny Depp, and then ex-Mrs Johnny Depp, Heard (wasn't she a lesbian at some point as well?)
Anyway, ATBLML has us believe that her friend-zoned pal Emmett is the killer, only to reveal that he is but her puppet, having manipulated him into offing her clique of high school friends, then betray him and crown herself final girl at the end to win the affections of the hunky ranch hand.
Diane Payne (Sally Kirkland)
Fatal Games (1984)
In an academy for aspiring young Olympians, a javelin-toting maniac is getting rid of the members of the so-called Magnificent Seven, who potentially may eclipse their own past successes.
Turns out it's the level-headed nurse Diane, who had a sex change after a scandal to try and compete as a woman, but was disqualified over this too! Suckfest. Watch as she pitches her weapon of choice down difficult corridors in an effort to silence the teen who discovers her secret. Kirkland played again the killer in 2006's Fingerprints.
Jill Roberts (Emma Roberts)
Scream 4 (2011)
Victims: 5+
Sidney Prescott's 17-year-old cousin is the criminal mastermind behind the new Woodsboro Murders. Sick of hearing aaaaall about her cousin, Jill intends to take the shortcut to fame and fortune, by setting herself up as the new Sidney and reap the rewards of professional victimhood. Emma Roberts does the nasty bitch schtick well, with a IDGAF attitude to go with her handy knife and, like Mandy Lane, ability to manipulate a boy into doing much of the leg work then take the fall for her.
Mrs Tredoni (Mildred Clinton)
Devout Catholic Mrs T. can't stand the bratty daughter of single mom Catherine Spages, and when she kills the wrong sister, goes about setting up Alice as the one responsible, digging herself a hole that a million Hail Mary's won't get her out of. A real sting in the tail of this viciously anti-religious pre-Halloween flick.
Victoria Engels (Barbara Steele)
One time prom queen Victoria sits in her secret attic room staring into a mirror covered by a photograph of her younger self, listening to old 50s records and pretending it's all good – until students move into the rooming house her mother and brother run, and they serve only to remind her of her youth to the point she goes even more cuckoo. Horror Queen Steele is as awesome in the role as you think she's going to be.
Mary Lou Maloney (Lisa Schrage/Courtney Taylor)
Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II / Prom Night III: The Last Kiss (1987/89)
Victims: 14
Promiscuous prom queen Mary Lou is burned to death by one of her many ex-boyfriends on the night she's crowned queen at Hamilton High, 1957.
Thirty years later, her spirit is unleashed and she embarks on a supernaturally assisted killing spree, returning again in the third movie as a female counterpart to Freddy Krueger, serving up all manner of inventive demises for teachers and students, including making lockers squish a girl, death by ice cream, battery acid, and super-charged football.
Terry Fairchild (Daphne Zuniga)
The Initiation (1983)
Ye olde evil twin cliché is realised excellently in this late-to-the-party slasher, which sees college kids undertaking their sorority hazing menaced by a shadowy killer after hours in a huge department store.
Turns out the weird dreams heroine Kelly has about broken dolls, a fire, and many reflections, are actually memories of her until-recently institutionalized crazy twin, who intends to kill and replace Kelly with herself. The revelation scene is camper than a row of pink tents.
Ann Thomason (Tracy Bregman)
Happy Birthday to Me (1981)
Wah wah wah, nobody came to my birthday, bellows weepy heroine Virginia to her best friend Ann, hostess of the party they all went to instead. Years later, when both girls are members of the Crawford Top Ten – popular clique at a prep school – it turns out to be Ann who is offing the grown-up teens who dissed Virginia's party years earlier, because they're half-sisters blah blah blah. The camp-tastic Scooby Doo ending salvages the movie from being a write-off.
Tiffany (Jennifer Tilly)
Bride of Chucky (1998)
In life, Charles Lee Ray's girlfriend Tiffany Valentine might have killed a few schmucks here and there, but in death and resurrected as a doll companion to Chucky, she goes into homicidal overdrive, infamously shattering a glass ceiling over a canoodling couple on a waterbed below, doing it with an evil grin throughout. Check out the scene in Seed of Chucky where she attempts to apologise to family members of her victims.
Brenda (Rebecca Gayheart)
Urban Legend (1998)
"You used an urban legend to kill my boyfriend, and noooow…" Although the physical requirements of the killer in Urban Legend look to be way more than model-esque Brenda could hope to live up to, unless she's packing major muscle out of sight, the revelation that she's offed nine students and staff of Pendleton University and based each murder on an old sleepover tale is nothing short of amazing. If you thought the bitchy exposition at the end of Happy Birthday to Me was sending the needle over the end of the camp-o-meter, this practically breaks the fucking thing.
Mrs Loomis/Debbie Salt (Laurie Metcalf)
Kevin Williamson wickedly paid homage to Friday the 13th when unveiling the second killer at the end of Scream 2. In contrast to everyone else I know, I guessed the other killer but not Mrs L., so it was a juicy surprise when it turned out she was the brains of the project, designed to reap revenge of Sidney Prescott for killing her dear Billy.
Nobody does deranged quite as theatrically as Metcalf (see also the episode of Desperate Housewives where she held a supermarket full of shoppers hostage) and her furious rantings during the final act haven't been equalled by any of the late-90s slasher crop.
Angela Baker (Felissa Rose)
Sleepaway Camp (1983)
Who would suspect the shy girl at Camp Arawak could be behind the bizarre series of deaths that plagues the joint? From wasps nests thrown into bathroom stalls to death by curling iron, Angela is a particularly inventive psycho, and even if it turns out that she is in fact he, for all intents and purposes the film has a female killer.
Mrs Voorhees (Betsy Palmer)
Could there be any other victor? I do wonder if without the final reveal in Friday the 13th the film would have been viewed even less favourably by critics at the time? Who knows, but however you cut it, it was a smart move on behalf of Cunningham and Miller to toy with the audience's expectations in this way, only to have your average mom turn out not to be all open arms and sympathy, instead coming at you with a knife and the most insane grin to grace the silver screen.

Probably rarer than female killers are female killers whose gender is known from the outset. Costumes always seem to obscure their sex along with their identities (either that, or we get creative camera angles). To set up a double whammy reveal, I suppose.

Q: Traefik v2 listen on port I am using Traefik v2 with Docker Swarm. I want to achieve the following routing:

*

*mydomain.com:9000 -> Traefik dashboard

*mydomain.com:5000 -> my application

docker-compose-traefik.yml
version: "3.7"

services:
  traefik:
    image: "traefik:v2.0"
    networks:
      - traefik-net
    command:
      - "--log.level=DEBUG"
      - "--api.insecure=true"
      - "--providers.docker.swarmMode=true"
      - "--providers.docker.exposedbydefault=false"
      - "--entrypoints.web.address=:5000"
    ports:
      - "80:80"
      - "9000:8080"
    volumes:
      - "/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro"

networks:
  traefik-net:
    external:
      name: traefik-net

docker-compose-whoami.yml
version: "3.7"

services:
  whoami:
    image: "jwilder/whoami"
    networks:
      - traefik-net
    deploy:
      replicas: 3
      labels:
        - "traefik.enable=true"
        - "traefik.http.routers.whoami.rule=Host(`mydomain.com`)"
        - "traefik.http.routers.whoami.entrypoints=web"
        - "traefik.http.services.whoami.loadbalancer.server.port=8000"

networks:
  traefik-net:
    external:
      name: traefik-net

jwilder/whoami exposes port 8000 in its Dockerfile. I want to redirect port 5000 (my entrypoint defined in docker-compose-traefik.yml) to port 8000 in container.
I created network traefik-net with: docker network create -d bridge traefik-net.
I deployed both stacks with:

*

*docker-stack deploy -c docker-compose-traefik.yml Traefik

*docker-stack deploy -c docker-compose-whoami.yml Whoami
When I visit mydomain.com:9000 it opens Traefik dashboard as it should. When I visit mydomain.com:5000 it says that "This site can't be reached".
My question is: How to redirect request to port 5000 (mydomain.com:5000) to port 8000 inside whoami container?

A: For anyone else having similar problems, I found a solution. I needed to change ports section in docker-compose-traefik.yml from
ports:
  - "80:80"
  - "9000:8080"

to
ports:
  - "80:80"
  - "9000:8080"
  - "5000:5000" <-- add this

Hope this helps someone. :)
