Selma, Alabama: The Charms of Goodness
Elizabeth Hardwick
Martin Luther King; drawing by David Levine
Selma, Ala., March 22
What a sad countryside it is, the home of the pain of the Confederacy, the birthplace of the White Citizens Council. The khaki-colored earth, the tense, threatening air, the vanquished feeding on their permanent Civil War—all of it brings to mind flamboyant images from Faulkner. Immemorial, doomed streets, policed by the Snopeses and Peter Grimms, alleys worn thin in the sleepless pursuit of a thousand Joe Christmases, and Miss Coldfield and Quentin behind the dusty lattices, in the "empty hall echoing with sonorous, defeated names." As you pass Big Swamp Creek, you imagine you hear the yelp of movie bloodhounds. The cabins, pitifully beautiful, set back from the road, with a trail of wood smoke fringing the sky, the melancholy frogs unmindful of the highway and the cars slipping by, the tufts of moss, like piles of housedust, that hang trembling from the bare winter trees, the road that leads at last to just the dead Sunday afternoon Main Streets you knew were there. We've read it all, over and over. We've seen it in the movies, in the Farm Administration photographs of almost thirty years ago: the voteless blacks, waiting tentatively on the court-house steps, the angry jowls of the racists, the washed-out children, the enduring Negroes, the police, the same old sheriff: the whole region is fiction, art, dated, something out of a secondhand bookstore. And this, to be sure, is the "Southern way of life," these dated old photographs of a shack lying under a brilliant sky, the blackest of faces, the impacted dirt of the bus station, the little run-down churches, set in the mud, leaning a bit; and the big ones with yellow brick turrets and fat belfries. If this is not it, what else can they mean? The rest might be anywhere, everywhere—mobile homes, dead cars in the yards, little cottages and ranch houses shading their eyes with plastic awnings.
Life arranges itself for you here in the most "conventional" tableaux. Juxtapositions and paradoxes fit only for the most superficial art present themselves over and over. At their best the people who rule Selma, Alabama suffer from a preternatural foolishness and at their worst from a schizophrenic meanness. Just as they use the Confederate flag, so they use themselves in the old pageantry. The tableau (it might have been thought up decades ago by one of the Hollywood Ten): the early morning fog is lifting and a little band of demonstrators stand at their post at the end of the dusty street. A State Highway truck comes up and lets out three desolate Negro convicts wearing black and white striped convict uniforms. The convicts take up their brooms and, with their heads down, jailhouse and penitentiary hopelessness clinging to them, they begin their morose sweeping, up and up to the very shoelaces of demonstrators, the hem of a nun's black skirts. On the heads of the convicts the soft melodies fall: we will overcome, or else go home to our Lord and be free. Great, great! we all say as the convicts and the demonstrators stand as if performing for us. Then off the convicts shuffle, wearing their black and white trousers, part of Alabama's humble devotion to symbolism.
How do they see themselves, we wonder, these posse-men, Sheriff Clark's volunteers, with their guns and sticks and helmets, nearly always squat, fairfaced, middle-aged delinquents and psychopaths? The State Troopers seem one ghostly step ahead of them on the social ladder. They ride around in their cars, their coats hanging primly in the back; they might be salesmen, covering their territory, on to the evening's motel. Who will open the door of the University of Alabama or Clemson or Tulane to the sons of Klansmen? The posse-men live in a joyless night, with no culture or consolation except whiskey. The ignoble posture one observes so frequently in them puzzles. They are strangers to beauty and grace and are indeed the saddest looking people to be seen anywhere in the world. Even the hungry, bone-thin poor of Recife do not present such a picture of deep, almost hereditary, depression. These Southerners have only the nothingness of racist ideas, the burning incoherence, and that is all. No sacred text or hymn book or Armageddon in which all the black devils of the earth are to be swallowed up in some final quicksand of white eternity. Only violence can fill a hole so deep; this bereft, static existence which seems to go back so many generations has its counterpart in the violent, deranged hopelessness of the deprived youth in the cities.
A poor young man, a native of Alabama, in a hot, cheap black suit, and the most insistent of false teeth clinging to gums not over twenty-one years old, back-country accent, pale with that furry whiteness of a caterpillar, rimless glasses, stiff shoes, all misery and weakness and character armor, said to me, "When I saw those white folks mixed in with the colored it made me right sick!" And what could one say in this deprived land: Go see the social worker, find an agency that can help you, some family counsellor, or an out-patient clinic? I did say, softly, "Pull yourself together." And he, too, like the convicts, shuffled off, shaking his head in some primordial perturbation of spirit.
So many of these white people are lost to history, waiting for the light to shine on them, waiting for some release from darkness. Who cares about their destroyed children? What charity can lift them up? When will the students come into the racist home and sleep on the floor and comfort these miserable people? You have to remind yourself that in the madness of the South these outcasts rule. They carry guns and whips and have power over senators and governors. They tell whoever it is that buys the books in the window in Montgomery (Herzog, Les Mots) and subscribes to The New Republic what they can do and cannot do. They keep in line those Southern queers who are "mad about Negroes" and who collect jazz records. And yet they are a degraded and despised people. This is another of the unbalancing paradoxes we expected to find, as it was, ready at hand.
The intellectual life in New York and the radical life of the Thirties are the worst possible preparation for Alabama at this stage of the Civil Rights movement. In truth it must be said that the demonstrations are an embarrassment of love and brotherhood and hymns and prayers offered up in Jesus' name and evening services after that. Intellectual pride is out of place, theory is simple and practical, action is exuberant and communal, the battle-field is out-of-doors and demands of one a certain youthful athleticism that would, in a morning's work, rip the veins of the old Stalinists and Trotskyites. The political genius of the Reverend Martin Luther King is, by any theory, quite unexpected. The nature of his protest, the quality and extent of his success sprang from a soil of religion and practicality most thinkers had thought to be barren. Looking back, it is curious to remember how small a part the Negro's existence played in the left-wing movements. The concentration on labor problems, the Soviet Union, and the Nazis left the Negro as only a footnote to be acknowledged sometime by the unions or a welfare state. That it could have come to this was unthinkable: this cloud of witnesses, this confrontation between good and evil. Martyred clergymen, Negro children killed at their prayers, the ideas of Gandhi imposed upon restless Negroes and belligerent whites—these appear as some sort of mutation of a national strain. "God will take care of you," they sing, Billy Eckstine style.
In the demonstrations and marches in Alabama you are watching—good people. The foundation is the Civil Rights Movement built by Southern Negroes and into this plot, like so many extras, these fantastic white people have come. On that "hallowed spot," Sylvan Street, you feel you are witness to a new Appomattox played out with the help of overly-refined somewhat feminine Yankee clerics, upright people, marching in their prudent overshoes, some of them wearing coats with velvet collars. The deputy sheriff spoke of these "so-called ministers," but that is a joke. Even a deputy can see that these are preacher faces. On a Sunday after the white churches had turned away the groups of "mixed worshippers" who had knocked at the doors, a Church of Christ found a verse in the Gospel of Matthew that seemed to explain what they had done in the morning. The verse was put up outside the church, in the announcement box, and it said, "When you pray, be not as hypocrites are, standing in the street." But of course hypocrisy is as foreign to these people as vice and that, perhaps, is their story. There is no doubt that they have been, before this chance to be a witness, suffering from some frustration, aching with the shame of the Christian who is busy most of the time ridding the church of the doctrine of the past as he waits for some meaning in the present. The moral justice of the Civil Rights movement, the responsible program of the leaders, the tragic murderous rage of the white people: this was the occasion at last. For the late-comers perhaps the immediate instrument had to be the death of a young white idealistic Protestant minister.
In Alabama the cause is right, the need is great, but there is more to it than that. There is the positive attraction between the people. The racists, with their fear of touch, their savage superstition, their strange reading of portents, see before them something more than voting rights. They sense the elation, the unexpected release. Few of us have shared any life as closely as those "on location" in the Civil Rights movement. Shared beds and sofas, hands caressing the shoulders of little children, smiles and this spreading closeness, absorption: this is, as the pilgrims say over and over, a great experience. The police, protected by their helmets, are frightened by these seizures of happiness. The odd thing is that it should not be beatniks and hipsters and bohemians who are sending out the message, but good, clean, downright folk in glasses and wearing tie clasps.

Djuptjärn är ett bostadsområde i Kalix. I området bor det 862 personer över 16 år (2020) och det är vanligt med villor och flerbostadshus byggda på 1970- och 1990-talen.

Området

När Kalixbanan byggdes ut på 1960-talet uppstod det en banvall på området vilket ledde till att en gångtunnel gjordes som förbinder bostadsområdena Djuptjärn och Stenbäcken. En målning utfördes på insidan av tunneln. På 2010-talet vitmålades tunneln efter att ha blivit utsatt för mycket klotter. Man hade tidigare sanerat klottret men kommunen bestämde att det skulle bli en tunnel där det var okej för graffiti.

Det var på 1970-talet som båda områdena började byggas ut. Innan dess fanns inte många hus här. På 1990-talet byggdes husen vid Kamomillstigen. Här finns även Djuptjärns gruppboende, ett särskilt boende för vuxna.

Näringsliv
Det har funnits en Konsumaffär på området. Den stängdes senare, och efteråt har företaget Reklam & Industritryck (RIT) funnits där. Kalix kennelklubb huserar nu i lokalen sedan cirka år 2013 med namnet Eukanuba Arena som är över 400 kvm stor.

Skola
 På Djuptjärn finns Djuptjärnsskolan med elever från förskoleklass till årskurs sex. Skolan öppnades år 1978 och byggdes ut 1984. Under mars månad 2020 upptäcktes vattenskador i lokalen, och skolan stängdes för renovering.

Djuptjärns förskola finns även här. Ett valborgsfirande anordnades många år i anslutning till skolans idrottsplan.

Motion & uteliv
Rudträskbacken med skidbacke finns på området. Där åker man slalom under vintern och skolorna brukar ha utflykt dit. Manhemsskolans terränglopp brukar anordnas på elljusspåret. En bana för frisbeegolf har också anlagts.

Kalix skidstadion finns i närheten av Djuptjärnsskolan, och där finns elljusspår för skidåkning. Draghundsträning kan även förekomma. Skidtävlingar brukar anordnas här. En del av Skid-SM anordnades vid skidstadion år 2015. Även i april 2021 anordnades delar av Skid-SM i Kalix..

Några lekparker finns också, bland annat vid Kamomillstigen.

Kommunikationer
Till området kör lokaltrafikens bussar under helgfria dagar. Länstrafikens linje 304 mot Vitvattnet stannade förr också vid Djuptjärnsskolan.

Sedan 2012 passerar Haparandabanan, tidigare Kalixbanan, området och Kalix resecentrum finns cirka 1 kilometer från Djuptjärns centrum. 1 april 2021 startades persontrafik på banan.

Historik
Nära Djuptjärnsskolan finns "Konsumbacken". Namnet har uppkommit efter Konsumaffären som fanns just i närheten av backen.

Det finns en bäck som rinner igenom området från sjön Djuptjärnen. En vår i mitten av 2000-talet, cirka 2007, blev det en stor översvämning i bäcken. Trumman som leder vattnet vidare från Djuptjärnssidan var förmodligen igensatt av mycket vatten eller av en ispropp, vilket ledde till att vattnet istället flödade genom gångtunneln som fick en hög vattennivå. Detta ledde till förtjusning bland skolbarnen, som lekte i vattnet och försökte sig på att cykla igenom vattnet på väg till skolan på morgonen. Kommunen kom senare och såg till att vattnet återgick till sitt normala flöde.

Home » Silent PC Articles » How do I keep my computer running fast?
Silentpc.com cannot be held responsible for any damage to your computer's software by attempting to follow the PC operating recommendations detailed on this page.
Over time, and with general computer use, your Windows can slow down. Sometimes the problem lies with viruses or malware. We covered that in PART1 of this series: Keeping your Computer Safe. Other times the reason for PC slow down is CLUTTER. Your PC's operating system becomes bogged down with extra files, the hard disk becomes fragmented, and/or too many programs are running simultaneously (often automatically). In PART2 of our series, we cover our recommendations on how to speed up your computer by keeping your computer clutter-free.
Many of the programs we use on our PC every day leave behind temporary files. In many cases temporary files are helpful. For instance, when you open a web page in your browser, the files that comprise the web page are downloaded to your computer and stored as temporary files. This is helpful because it means you do not need to download the same files over and over again, therefore saving time and bandwidth.
The downside to temporary files is that often times these same files (that help save us time and system resources), keep building up past the point of any usefulness and start to consume a sizable amount of computer disk space. We recommend that you clean out these temporary files every so often in order to speed up your PC. It can be difficult to track down every last temporary file, and clear all of them out. Temporary files are located in your web browser, in your log files, in your temporary folders, etc. The list is long and totally dependent on the individual applications you have installed on your PC.
Drive fragmentation ("fragged" drive) is a problem that almost always occurs over time in a Windows PC.
Imagine you have downloaded three photos and they were are all 5mb, for a total of 15mb. They are written to the drive like this: . Later you decide that you don't like the second picture and delete it. The space that was used by picture 2 is marked as free: [ ]. The drive reports 10mb used, but none of the data has actually moved, just the space picture 2 was occupying is now considered free. Later you download another picture, but this one is 10mb. Picture 4's data fills the open space left by picture 2, until that space runs out, and your PC writes the rest to of the file to the unused space of the drive . This cuts the data for picture 4 into two pieces, or fragments it. Over time important files and directories become cut into so many fragments that they become hard for the disk to access quickly.
Note: As of the time of this writing, we can only recommend DEFRAGGING your SPINNING HARD DISK DRIVES. Defragging can reduce the lifespan of your SSDs (or at the very least it is not proven beneficial), so attempt to defragment your SSDs.
All modern operating systems (Windows 7 and 8) include a utility called Trim. Trim helps reduce fragmentation on SSDs, and therefore keeps your PC running fast.
To keep your PC running its fastest, you should also periodically run the optimization tools included with your SSD, such as Samsung SSD Magician, or Intel SSD Toolbox. While running your SSD's optimization tools included with your SSD, we also recommend double checking that your firmware is up to date. The firmware checking utility is usually located inside the same SSD tools used for optimization.
It seems as if almost every piece of software you install is defaulted to automatically startup with your PC, and run in your systray (down by the clock). Many software manufacturers also bundle other unneeded software into the software you actually want. THESE UNNEEDED PROGRAMS slow your computer down. You need to be proactive and watch which programs you are actually installing. Often times, this extraneous software installs as checkboxes during an install process. Each piece of running software takes away from system resources and can be the reason your computer seems to be running slowly. Eventually you will have so much running on your PC at the same time, that your computer slows down.
The first thing you need to do is remove unwanted software from your PC. 1) Go to your Control Panel and find "Programs and Features" 2) Then, look for any programs that you do not need. But be careful. Some software installed on your PC is there to help with basic hardware functionality.
Note: Removing unwanted software to speed up a slow computer is something that should only be done if you are sure you know what that program does. Removing programs from your computer is an at-you-own-risk procedure.
If you have purchased a PC from us, rest assured that it comes with an easy restore disk to restore your PC back to original purchased condition (as long as your PC is Windows based). But, you still need to make sure that additional programs and files which have been added to your PC since your purchase have been backed up, and are able to be re-installed or copied over to your PC after restoring your PC.
We can say with confidence that we are not huge fans of toolbars. We have had numerous customers that have sent their machines to us for repairs and optimizations, almost all of which had toolbars (that they were not using) installed on their PCs. Toolbars eat system resources and make your computer slow. Toolbards are also often unknowingly installed along with other applications. If you don't have a clear reason for using a particular toolbar, we recommend removing all toolbars installed in your browser.
Often, you like and use an application, but you don't need it to startup with your PC and run the entire time. In order to make your computer run faster, you can modify Startup to stop these programs from starting, thereby conserving system resources. But, once again, be careful. Some programs need to be running constantly to in order to function, most notably anti-virus and anti-malware. Windows has a variety of ways to modify Startup (such as using msconfig, or modifying the registry and startup directories). For the average computer user, however, we recommend cleaning up Startup by using the Startup Tool in CCleaner.
As always, if you find that it is time to upgrade your Computer altogether, we would be glad to help you determine your PC needs. Please, don't hesitate to Contact Us.
Modifying Startup with CCleaner, avoiding toolbars, and removing programs in Windows > "Control Panel" > "Programs and Features"
Those are the most basic tasks that will keep your PC (almost) as fast as the day you bought it. In addition to this, if you are doing more with your PC than you were originally doing, then you might be able to make your computer faster by simply upgrading your RAM or hard drive.

Beverly Hills Fosters Kindness Through Transformative Initiatives
KINDNESS IS KING — Dr. Eli and Rochelle Ginsburg received the mayor's Kindess Recognition award at the Aug. 6 Beverly Hills City Council meeting.
BY Laura Coleman September 6, 2019
The Golden Rule in any language tells us that we should do unto others that which we want done unto ourselves.
The City of Beverly Hills is now in the midst of two transformative initiatives centering on kindness – one on behalf of the Human Relations Commission and another launched by the mayor's office.
"Kindness is at the root of every single culture, in every world religion, in every country and in every age, it's the base of the Golden Rule, as we know it. There isn't anybody who doesn't talk about it, from Confucius to Audrey Hepburn," said Beverly Hills resident Rochelle Ginsburg at a recent City Council meeting, who together with her husband, Eli, became the sixth recipient to be awarded the mayor's Kindness Recognition.
The city's Kindness Recognition is designed to recognize residents who have shown acts of kindness within the community and typically go out of their way to make positive contributions to those around them.
This coming Tuesday, Boy Scout Troop 110 will become the seventh recipient to be honored by the City Council since Mayor John Mirisch launched the initiative earlier this year in tandem with being sworn in for his third term as mayor this past March.
"I think it's great that with scouts they're taught to do an act of kindness everyday [and] they embody the spirit of what we're trying to promote," Mirisch said.
When Mirisch was first elected to the City Council in 2009, he ran on the platform of "Residents First." Now in his third term on City Council, Mirisch has a kaleidoscopic understanding of the City of Beverly Hills as few do.
"Who wouldn't want to be a city of kindness?" he proffered, referencing the words of Anaheim Mayor Tom Tait, who launched a similar initiative in his city, with 2011's "Year of Kindness" campaign prompting over a million acts of kindness in the City of Anaheim.
"It all comes back to what is our vision for our city," Mirisch continued. "We are all connected and we [should] remember that we're all unique, special individuals who have our own quirks, needs and ideals. Kindness is also toleration. It makes the city a better place."
Since the Human Relations Commission was founded almost 19 years ago, the commission has worked to foster greater civility and kindness within the city from its annual Embrace Civility Award to last year's launch of Kindness Week in February.
"Civility has always been the core of the commission," said Human Relations Chair Annette Saleh. "It's always been about promoting civility.
It's in our mission statement. Our tenet is to promote positive human relations in community life."
Since taking over as commission chair earlier this year, Saleh has begun each commission meeting with commissioners sharing stories of recent acts of kindness within the city. In addition, the commission recently formalized a process to review kindness endorsements en route to providing recommendations for the mayor's Kindness Initiative.
In a similar vein as the mayor's kindness recognition, the Human Relations Commission is preparing to select its 8th annual Embrace Civility Award recipient. Those wishing to make an immediate nomination can still do so by the close of business today, Friday, Sept. 6, at http://beverlyhills.org/embracecivilityaward.
The Commission will vote and make a selection at its upcoming meeting on Sept. 19 with the recipient to be honored at a City Council meeting in October.
"This award is so meaningful because we celebrate individuals or groups in the community who are role models of positive behavior; they support and respect responsible actions, they promote positive neighbor to neighbor relations," Saleh said. "It's important because it inspires others to do the same."

Mrówki (niem. Mrowken) – wieś w Polsce położona w województwie warmińsko-mazurskim, w powiecie giżyckim, w gminie Ryn.

W latach 1975–1998 miejscowość należała administracyjnie do województwa suwalskiego.

Wieś położona jest nad Jeziorem Ryńskim.

Historia
Wieś założona została przez wielkiego mistrza krzyżackiego Paula von Russdorffa przywilejem z dnia 7 sierpnia 1431, który utworzył tu majątek służebny.

W roku 1539 było tu sześć samodzielnych gospodarstw.

Szkoła w Mrówkach powstała w 1893 roku i funkcjonowała do 1937. Szkołę uruchomiono tutaj ponownie po II wojnie światowej w roku szkolnym 1950/1951, ale ze względu na małą liczbę dzieci funkcjonowała ona tylko do roku 1952/1953.

Podczas akcji germanizacyjnej nazw miejscowych i fizjograficznych historyczna nazwa niemiecka Mrowken została w 1938 r. zastąpiona przez administrację nazistowską sztuczną formą Neuforst.

W roku 1939 wieś miała powierzchnię 381 ha i mieszkało tu 69 osób.

W latach 1954-1972 Mrówki należały do gromady w Rynie.

Un pletismógrafo es un aparato que se utiliza para determinar variaciones en el volumen de un órgano o del cuerpo en sí (generalmente como resultado de oscilaciones en la cantidad de sangre o de aire que este contiene o de variaciones en la presión). La palabra proviene del griego «plethysmos» (aumentar, dilatar, llenar) y «graphos» (escribir).

Órganos estudiados

Pulmones

Los pletismógrafos pulmonares se emplean normalmente para medir la capacidad residual funcional (CFR) de los pulmones (el volumen de los pulmones cuando los músculos de la respiración están relajados), así como la capacidad pulmonar total.
Cuando se utiliza un pletismógrafo tradicional, el paciente se sitúa dentro de una cámara del tamaño de una cabina telefónica pequeña, sellada y con una boquilla. Al finalizar la espiración natural, se cierra la boquilla. Después, se pide al paciente que realice un ejercicio de inspiración. Cuando el paciente intenta inspirar (con un movimiento de respiración profundo y fuerte), los pulmones se expanden, por tanto, disminuye la presión en los pulmones y aumenta el volumen pulmonar. Posteriormente, esto hace que aumente la presión de la cabina, ya que es un sistema cerrado y el volumen del compartimento de la cabina ha disminuido para adaptarse al volumen nuevo del cuerpo del sujeto.

En una pletismografía sin cabina, el paciente se sienta junto a un dispositivo situado en una mesa y se introduce la boquilla en la boca. Durante un minuto aproximadamente, este tomará aire y respirará con normalidad. Durante esta respiración, habrá una serie de interrupciones rápidas, debido a la apertura y cierre de una rejilla. De este modo se medirá la presión y el volumen.

Enfoque metodológico

Para calcular el volumen desconocido dentro de los pulmones, se utiliza la ley de Boyle. Primero, se calcula la variación del volumen del tórax. La presión inicial de la cabina mide su volumen, y este se considera equivalente a la presión conocida tras la expansión que mide el nuevo volumen desconocido. Después de haber hallado este nuevo volumen, el volumen inicial menos el nuevo es la variación de volumen en la cabina y también la variación de volumen del tórax. Con estos datos, se vuelve a utilizar la ley de Boyle para determinar el volumen inicial de aire en el tórax: el volumen inicial (desconocido) que mide la presión inicial es igual al volumen final que mide la presión final. A partir de este principio, se puede demostrar que la capacidad residual funcional depende de la variación de volumen y presiones del siguiente modo:

La diferencia entre unos pulmones llenos y unos vacíos se puede utilizar para evaluar enfermedades, así como los bloqueos de las vías respiratorias. Una enfermedad obstructiva mostrará un aumento de la CFR, ya que en condiciones normales algunas vías respiratorias no se vacían con normalidad, mientas que una enfermedad restrictiva mostrará una disminución de la CFR. La pletismografía corporal es apropiada, en particular, para pacientes que presentan unos alvéolos que no se comunican con el árbol bronquial. En este tipo de pacientes, una dilución de helio supondrá una cifra erróneamente baja.

Otro valor importante que puede calcularse con un pletismógrafo corporal es la resistencia de las vías respiratorias. Durante la inspiración, el tórax se expande, lo que provoca un aumento de la presión dentro de la cabina. Mientras se observa la llamada «curva de resistencia» (la presión y el flujo de la cabina), las enfermedades se pueden reconocer con facilidad. Si la curva de resistencia se vuelve planar, indica una mala distensibilidad pulmonar. Una enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC), por ejemplo, puede detectarse fácilmente gracias a la forma única de la curva de resistencia correspondiente.

Extremidades

Algunos pletismógrafos se fijan a los brazos, piernas u otras extremidades y se utilizan para determinar la capacidad circulatoria.

Durante una pletismografía de agua, se introduce una extremidad (por ejemplo, un brazo) en una cámara llena de agua en la que se pueden detectar variaciones en el volumen. La pletismografía de aire utiliza un método parecido, aunque basado en un manguito largo lleno de aire, que aunque es más práctico, es menos exacto.

Otro aparato bastante útil es el medidor de tensión relleno de mercurio, que se utiliza para medir de forma continua el perímetro de una extremidad, por ejemplo, de la mitad de la pantorrilla.

La pletismografía por impedancia (artículo en inglés) es un método no invasivo utilizado para detectar flebotrombosis en esas zonas del cuerpo.

Genitales

Otro tipo frecuente de pletismografía es la pletismografía peneana. Este aparato se utiliza para determinar las variaciones en el torrente sanguíneo del pene. A pesar de que algunos investigadores utilizan este aparato para determinar la excitación sexual y la inclinación sexual, «Generalmente, los tribunales que han analizado la pletismografía peneana dictaminan que esta técnica no es lo suficientemente fiable como para utilizarse ante un tribunal».
Un equivalente femenino a la pletismografía peneana es la fotopletismografía vaginal (artículo en inglés), que determina ópticamente las variaciones en el torrente sanguíneo de la vagina.

Utilización en investigación preclínica

La pletismografía es un procedimiento muy extendido durante la investigación básica y la investigación preclínica para estudiar la respiración. Se utilizan diversas técnicas:

Valores respiratorios en animales conscientes y con libertad de movimiento: pletismografía de cuerpo entero

La pletismografía de cuerpo entero se utiliza para determinar los valores respiratorios de sujetos conscientes y libres, principalmente para cuantificar la broncoconstricción.

El pletismógrafo de tamaño estándar se utiliza para el estudio de ratones, ratas y cobayas. También se pueden fabricar pletismógrafos más grandes para otros animales (como conejos, perros, cerdos o primates) bajo petición.

El pletismógrafo tiene dos cámaras, cada una de ellas equipada con un neumotacógrafo. El sujeto se sitúa en una de ellas (cámara del sujeto) y la otra permanece vacía (cámara de referencia).

La variación de la presión se mide con un transductor de presión diferencial. Un puerto se expone a la cámara del sujeto y el otro, a la cámara de referencia.

Valores respiratorios de animales conscientes y con restricción de movimiento: pletismografía de doble cámara/pletismógrafo Head-Out (con la cabeza hacia afuera)

El pletismógrafo de doble cámara (dcp, por sus siglas en inglés) mide los valores respiratorios de un sujeto consciente y con restricción de movimiento, principalmente la resistencia de las vías respiratorias y la conductancia. Existen diferentes tamaños de pletismógrafos para el estudio de ratones, ratas o cobayas.

La forma del pletismógrafo Head-Out es idéntica a la forma estándar anteriormente descrita, excepto que no presenta una cámara para la cabeza, de modo que esta queda en el exterior.

Se aplica un sellado en el collarín para que la cámara del cuerpo continúe siendo hermética. Con tan solo una señal torácica, se pueden obtener todos los valores, salvo la resistencia de las vías respiratorias (sRaw) y la conductancia específica de las vías respiratorias (sGaw).

Resistencia/distensibilidad en animales sedados

En una pletismografía en la que se utiliza la anestesia, se miden directamente la resistencia pulmonar y la distensibilidad dinámica, puesto que el sujeto está anestesiado.

El sujeto puede respirar de forma espontánea (técnica SB) o gracias a la ventilación mecánica (técnica MV) en función del nivel de sedación.

Para calcular la distensibilidad y la resistencia, se necesita una señal de flujo y una señal de presión.

Flujo sanguíneo cerebral

Recientemente, se ha estudiado el flujo sanguíneo de las venas cerebrales para intentar establecer una conexión entre la insuficiencia venosa cerebroespinal crónica y la esclerosis múltiple. Este pequeño estudio no ha sido suficiente para determinar una conclusión, pero se ha demostrado que puede haber cierta asociación.

Successful St. Patrick's weekend festival tinged with loss of life tragedies
Athlone Advertiser / NewsThu, Mar 21, 2019
Well, well, so much has happened in the last seven days that it truly is difficult to know where to begin, or on what topic. But we'll start with a good one, the St. Patrick's Day parade which was held in Athlone on the Saturday, March 16, rather than on the 17th. There was a lot of Facebook criticism about the decision to shift back to the Saturday, but the volunteer committee who are the backbone of the parade arrangements stuck to their guns, and it turned out to be a great success.
Ireland Not Performing to Expectation in Six Nations
Galway Advertiser / LifestyleTue, Mar 05, 2019
The Six Nations is underway and by their own admissions things are not going according to plan for the Irish team. In 2018 they were riding high after becoming the Grand Slam winners so sitting in third place is not entirely cutting it. Freetips.com looks at their game so far.

Athlone Advertiser / NewsThu, Feb 28, 2019
Well I'm only coming together now after a very packed weekend. On Saturday, I had been invited to speak at the 30th Colmcille Winter School. The man in charge of it, Martin Egan, had emailed me in early December asking would I speak, and I agreed long before I knew the date of the Fianna Fáil Ard Fheis which was also last Saturday. Anyway, I had given my confirmation that I would be there, so of course I couldn't break that.
May visits Farmleigh in latest Brexit discussions as Irish rugby receives a fillip with weekend win
We might call last weekend's rugby a success, but I call it a qualified success, and I'll explain that as I go on. Firstly, the women played a magnificent game and triumphed over Scotland. Likewise, the under 20 team had a significant win in their joust with Scotland. So now we come to the big one last Saturday, Ireland versus Scotland. I settled myself down to look at it, turned off my telephone and my email and decided I would wallow in what I hoped would be a victory.
Resilience in the face of adversity seminar apt in light of Ireland's rugby defeat
Athlone Advertiser / OpinionThu, Feb 07, 2019
Well I have to start with rugby. I think Joe Schmidt when he was interviewed after the match was fully correct when he said, "it's a reality check for all of us," and by that he meant the team and himself as head coach. How true that was. Somehow we, the public, and I expect the team also, felt that we were poised to defeat England. We didn't at all take into account that England under Jones were bound for revenge, and they got it.

How has nationalism in Quebec influenced Canadian politics?
Does the Canadian political system do an adequate job of placing checks on the powers of the Prime Minister?

What is the purpose of subsidies to political parties and are they fair?
Do the courts adequately protect rights in Canada?
Do backbench Members of Parliament or Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition fulfill a useful role in Canadian democracy (Choose one)?
What is executive federalism and how does it operate in practice?
Media power in Canada is saturated among a few corporations which control 90% of the country's newspaper circulation and cable television. The degree to which organizations are allowed to exercise their "Right to Know" has been tactically managed by the federal government, enabling the Canadian parliament to execute its business in privacy. The impact of the media has gradually eroded the culture of political aspirants engaging voters directly in campaigns by stage managing broadcasts to target audiences. Technological engagement of voters on platforms such as social media, government regulation, and public diligence have collectively established control of the media's influence in elections.
Keywords: Democratic process, Government regulation, Voter engagement, Media responsibility.
The media plays a critical role in shaping political ideologies, public participation and deciding the public agenda at any given time. Such control in the public opinion emanates from the critical role of journalistic ventures to disseminate information, raise awareness, investigate and expose controversy and educating, and mobilizing audiences in participation in civic activities such as the electoral process. In Canada, the media houses have undergone a transformation from high regulation and censorship in the 19th century. The political class dictated that only information that would not jeopardize the governments and politicians' agendas would be broadcasted. The great concern on the messages circulated by media houses than was informed by the recognition of the power of media houses in establishing behavioral trends, attitudes and their audience's political opinions. Additionally, the media plays an important role in the correlation of communal challenges and opportunities with government strategies and policies in response.
Canadian voters rely on mainstream media, particularly newspapers, radio, and television to find out about their political parties, leaders, public policy and party politics. Thus, the Canadian media act as an essential link between the voters and their political parties, leaders and the government (Nesbitt-Larking 2010, 50). As established, the media in Canada also contribute to the formulation of public opinion, exposing corruption, and holding political leaders accountable in public opinion. Consequently, the media contribute to identifying the issues the public is concerned about. By doing so, the media sensitize the voters on issues which should be addressed and the different political parties' policies in addressing the identified challenges. The voters consequently make their decision on where to vote based on the perceptions of different parties and leaders created in the media. Further, the media in Canada play a critical role in, soliciting for public support for the successful implementation public, civic functions (Doris 2005, 570).

Griffin Claw Brewing Co.:
7.25% ABV | 65 IBU
Norm's Raggedy Ass IPA
Griffin Claw Brewing Co.'s brewmaster Dan Rogers has spent years honing his craft. In 1992 he opened Las Vegas's first brewery, and six years later he won the World Beer Championships Gold Medal for his Big Rock Scotch Ale. By 2011, he had another under his belt for his Red Rock Flanders Red Ale. Since opening Griffin Claw in the summer of 2013, he's only earned more gold, silver, and bronze medals for his beers.
The brewery, located in Birmingham, is a 12,000-square-foot facility that creates and manufactures beers like Screamin' Pumpkin Ale, Grind Line Pale Ale, El Rojo Red Ale, Grand Trunk Bohemian Pilsner, and, perhaps most famously, Norm's Raggedy Ass IPA.
Sold in pint-sized cans, Norm's Raggedy Ass IPA is what you might call the staple of Griffin Claw's line-up. The brew is slightly sweet, with a bitter overtone that hopheads love. It combines piney, citrusy, and fruity hops with a low malt profile, and it won't make you sleepy like other heavily hopped beers. Actually, it's pretty sessionable.
Norm's pours a clear golden and has a thick white head. If you're using a glass, you'll notice a nice lacing. Hops are definitely present even in the nose, but if you smell a little deeper, you'll notice there's a citrusy sweetness to its scent as well and its taste follows suit. It's slightly sweet and well-balanced with its hops. Its mouthfeel is excellent and, like we mentioned before, you can sip on quite a few of these brews in a row.

Q: Solving a BVP for a wave equation
How I think I should do it:
First, I assume $u(x,t)=X(x)T(t)$ and perform separation of variables to get two ordinary differential equations:
$X''+\lambda X=0$
$T''+\lambda T=0$
Then I analyze my boundary conditions and recognize that:
$X(0)=0$
$X(1)=0$
Now I solve $X''+ \lambda X=0$ according to 3 cases.

*

*Let $\lambda=0$. Then:

Solution is $c_1 + c_2 x$ which yields $c_1 =0$ and $c_2=0$ by boundary conditions.

*Let $\lambda = -\alpha^2<0$.

According to my professor, this case is negligible.

*Let $\lambda = \alpha^2<0$.

Solution is $c_1 \cos(\alpha x) + c_2 \sin(\alpha x)$ which yields $c_1=0$ and $c_2 \sin(\alpha x)=0$ and I don't know how to go from here? I don't know how to use my boundary conditions any further and I don't know what my next step would be. I don't even know if what I have above is correct. Please help me.

A: Since we know that $\lambda > 0$, we can write $\lambda = \alpha^2$. As you've noticed, we have a pair of ODE:
$$X'' + \alpha^2 X = 0 \text{ and } T'' + \alpha^2T = 0.$$
The solutions of these have the form
$$X(x) = C\cos\alpha x + D\sin\alpha x \text{ and } T(t) = A\cos\alpha t + B\sin\alpha t.$$
We can now impose the boundary conditions on $X$. $X(0) = 0 = X(1)$ implies that $C = X(0) = 0$ and $D\sin\alpha = X(1) = 0$. We don't want the trivial solution given by $C=D=0$, so this implies that $\alpha = k\pi$ for $k \in \mathbb{Z}$. Thus, we have
$$X_k(x) = D_k\sin k\pi x,$$
and we also know that $\lambda_k = k^2\pi^2$.
Before applying the initial conditions, we can write down the general form of our solution:
$$u(x,t) = \sum_k (A_k\cos k\pi t + B_k\sin k\pi t)\sin k\pi x.$$
Now, we can apply the first initial condition:
$$\sin \pi x = u(x,0) = \sum_k A_k \sin k\pi x.$$
So, we see that $A_1 = 1$ and $A_k = 0$ for $k \neq 1$. That is,
$$u(x,t) = \cos \pi t \sin\pi x + \sum_k B_k\sin k\pi t\sin k\pi x.$$
Next, we can apply the second initial condition:
$$0 = u_t(x,0) = \sum_k k\pi B_k\sin k\pi x.$$
Hence, we see that $B_k = 0$ for all $k$. This leaves us with
$$u(x,t) = \cos \pi t\sin \pi x.$$

A cold-blooded killer is on the loose in Antarctica in Whiteout. There's nowhere to hide - if the murderer doesn't get you, the millions of kilometres of ice, below-freezing temperatures or gale-force winds will.
The movie is based on a four-part graphic novel of the same name published in 1998 by comic book writer Greg Rucka (Action Comic, Detective Comics) and artist Steve Lieber (Detective Comics, Hawkman). It stars Kate Beckinsale (Underworld), Gabriel Macht (The Spirit), Columbus Short (Stomp the Yard) and Tom Skerritt (Contact).
A body on the ice means US Marshall Carrie Stetko (Beckinsale) has to solve Antarctica's first-ever homicide. The investigation for the person responsible leads Stetko on a bizarre hunt across the frozen waste land.
So far, so interesting a concept. But unfortunately it doesn't live up to its promise. Whiteout is a simple and instantly forgettable thriller that's not worth the price of the ticket.
The movie suffers from a lack of character development and a number of plot problems that should have been resolved.
The best performance in the whole movie is delivered by the freezing, harsh environment of Antarctica - the human cast express less emotion than this great, white wonderland. Save your money for a fleecy hat and coat in case you ever decide to visit.

Guest Column: It Shouldn't Matter Who the President Is…..
… and it doesn't have to
by Jeffrey Tucker, c/o Foundation for Economic Education (full column here)
Freedom lovers everywhere are biting their nails during the election season, wondering how the damage can be limited. Depending on who gains control, we could have trade wars, nationalized health care, the pillaging of Wall Street and Main Street, more wars in the Middle East, a VAT tax, surveillance of your smartphone, mass deportations, internment camps, and worse.
Read that sentence slowly in a deep voice and it sounds like the trailer to a dystopian film.
Let's take a step back and ask whether it has to be this way. What if the power of government were so limited that it didn't matter who occupied the White House? Wouldn't that be a vast improvement?
Let's say that Rutherford B. Hayes, who was president from 1877 to 1881, had been revealed to be a fascist demagogue and bearded would-be dictator. Maybe the same could be said of Presidents Chester A. Arthur (1881-1885), James Garfield (1881), or Benjamin Harrison (1889–1893). Let's say they were all crazy authoritarians who longed to rule the country as a private fiefdom.
Would it really matter? Probably not.
These were not the presidents who "made history," and good for them. Hardly anyone remembers them, which is to their credit. They are usually listed among the "worst" presidents, which is to say they didn't cause giant upheavals. They inhabited the office at a time when the private sector was growing at incredible rates while the government was playing a relatively diminished role.
No Power, No Problem
As a result, they had no large bureaucracy to control. There was no CIA, NSA, FBI, HUD, DHS, DOL, EPA, and so on. These agencies didn't exist, and their functions didn't exist. The Supreme Court didn't do much. There was no IRS for the president to lean on to persecute his enemies. Surveillance of the population wasn't yet possible. The government owned no weapons of mass destruction.
There was no central bank to bail out wars and welfare. In fact, the federal government had to balance the budget year to year (as the states still do) because the country was on a strict gold standard. You couldn't just print money without limit. If the money wasn't there, it had to be borrowed at market rates. The military was tiny. There were virtually no migration controls, direct taxes, or even passports.
There was no federal government involvement in education, health care, or commerce generally. There was no antitrust regulation, no social security tax, no regulation of consumer products, no environmental land management, no price controls or labor laws to stand between workers and employment, no drug war, no decades-long process of pharmaceutical testing, no gun-free zones, no giant military contacts, and no ability to tax earnings.
Most of the power that presidents had amounted to steering some infrastructure contracts to their friends. And here, their corruption was truly revealed, but the damage they could do was limited. Their money came from a few small tariffs, and the tiny federal budget reflected that. Presidents were managers of a limited government that didn't intrude into any intimate aspects of life, much less on the whole population. The governments these men headed had strict, meaningful, and practical limits on what they could do. They had no policy plans to speak of, because policy as we know it barely existed.
Leviathan as we know it had not been invented yet. That came later, in the 20th century. Whatever great ambitions of Gilded Age presidents, they couldn't be realized through their official capacity. Therefore, the stakes of any one election were extremely low for the country at large. That's why these men's names are barely known. Even back then, hardly anyone paid attention to the presidency as such. The president was a caretaker, holding an honorary position, of interest to only those directly affected.
As bad as the candidates are this year — as threatening as each of them is to someone's rights and liberties — none would pose a threat if the power to act on ambition were still limited.

I want to make you think about something that is one of the most important long term decisions we make about entering any type of business practice or adding on anything to our business and that is…………… How do we make it scalable?
One of the first things we ask on any business is, hey, can I make any money? You can add notes to your business, change your bottom line and make money. If you're unclear about this, we can definitely show you how that works.
I'll give you examples on how to transition from an active strategy to a passive strategy. Long term income strategies do transition from an active process to a passive process.
Take a look at this business in many ways so you can be active to passive and earn long term money.

Clare asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation about Irish military exports, in particular, exports to Saudi Arabia, a country whose enormously troubling human rights record is well-known. The Minister puts the omission of €2.7 million worth of exports to Saudi Arabia in 2013/2014 from his Department's annual report for that period down to a 'compiling error'. He says that these exports were missed because they weren't direct exports to Saudi Arabia, and passed through a middleman before they got there. However, he acknowledges that information on exports of this kind had been contained in the 2011/2012 report – we have to wonder, therefore, why it was not contained in the report for the following year.


Does the medium make the memory? Within the cross-disciplinary field of cultural memory studies this programme focuses on the role played by different media (texts, images, monuments etc) in the evolution and maintenance of 'memory sites.' Through a series of interlinked case-studies it examines the interaction of different mnemonic practices over time, the influence of innovations within the media landscape on such practices, and their role in the shaping of social memory.
what is the relationship between the use of particular media and the formation of 'memory communities'?
what happens to existing mnemonic practices when a new technology (photography, film, internet) becomes available?
when do memory sites die out?
This project is part of Transnational Memories, one of the four research lines within Utrecht University's research focus area Cultures & Identities.
This project is financed by the Netherlands Research Council (NWO) and the Research Institute for History and Culture (OGC) of Utrecht University.

Known for its striking orange, yellow and red hues, nice luster and unique crystal habits, wulfenite is a lead molybdate that is found in the oxidation zone of lead-ore deposits. Wulfenite typically forms thin, tabular crystals and therefore, acquiring a crystal thick enough to fashion into a gem is challenging. In addition, great care must be taken during the faceting process because wulfenite is a delicate mineral.


"There comes a time when we leave our loved ones and go on this journey. No one said it was going to be easy, but we have to remember that the ending is worth it," said Nadia, Class of 2017.
Meet international student and Business Administration major, Nadia Fanou Tosse. Nadia was 19 years old when she left the Benin Republic in West Africa to move to the United States and enroll at Winona State University-Rochester in 2012. Coming to the US for college, Nadia found that her world was rapidly changing.
"The language, the culture, the food, almost everything was different," she said.
The language was probably the biggest adjustment for Nadia. Before moving to the US, she spoke French and four other languages but did not speak English. "I had to take ELC classes for a semester before attending college. It was hard for me in the beginning to understand everything my professors were teaching," said Nadia.
Many times, she wanted to quit and return home to be surrounded by her family and friends, but she decided to persevere. "It wasn't easy, but I chose not to go the easy way, because many reminded me that I wasn't alone," said Nadia.
Although new to the area, Nadia quickly developed a support network here at WSU-R. Faculty, mentors, other students, and her friends became her strength to keep motivated to continue. "Some reminded me the reason why I came here in the first place and nothing was going to stop me from reaching my goals," she said.
Like most non-traditional students, Nadia chose to enroll here because of the unique career paths and opportunities that WSU-R supports through higher education and competitive programming. The students that walk through our doors at WSU-R are not your traditional college students. Varying ages, ethnicities, life experiences, and social backgrounds make this campus unique from others in the region.
Her advice for new students is: "Get to know people, get involved in school activities, surround yourself with positive people and don't be afraid to ask if you don't know," said Nadia. When asked what she liked most about Winona State University, Nadia replied, "Today I am glad WSU gave me the chance to create a new life full of hope and determination.

#SPOTTED: JANE LYNCH IN TORONTO FOR FEBREZE
Jane Lynch has been a Star long before the Glee Phenomenon which took the World by storm in 2009. Known best for her work as Sue Sylvester on that Fox Musical-Comedy Series which garnered her both Golden Globe and Primetime Emmy Awards, Lynch has built a lofty Resume of work which dates back to the late '80s. It was her role in Christopher Guest's Show Dog Mockumentary, Best in Show, as Ex-Pornstar Christy Cummings which would put her on the map. Memorable and fearless roles in The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story and A Mighty Wind (also by Guest) soon would follow and it would only be a matter of time before she became a household name.
The Funnywoman is in Toronto today promoting Febreze and their Noseblind Campaign. That is, are you so accustomed to odours in your home that you don't even notice them anymore? If there is anyone who knows the benefits of the Freshening Spray, it would be her – a Pet Advocate and loving Owner of two Dogs, Olivia and Francis. Lynch stopped off at Starbucks on Jarvis x Bloor prior to a couple Radio appearances earlier today and then head out to do a variety of Television appearances including City's Breakfast Television and CP24 Breakfast.
She currently can be seen on popular NBC Game Show, Hollywood Game Night and is confirmed to appear on Series Girl Meets World. Earlier this Summer she debuted a limited-run Cabaret Show at 54 Below in Manhattan. The forthcoming sixth season of Glee has been confirmed to be the final of the popular acclaimed Series – expect to see some familiar faces return.
Lynch was so amazingly nice to stop for a quick Photo earlier today with Billy and I! She's just so gorgeous in-person!

PS5 'Future of Gaming' June event: game announcements, trailers, news
June 11, 2020 by Erin Fox
On Thursday, June 11, Sony will reveal more details surrounding the PlayStation 5 and some of the system's new games. The company promised to show games from "studios, both larger and smaller, those newer and those more established."
Sony says its showcase of games will go for "a bit more than an hour," and said it would still have more updates following the event, likely up until the console's planned launch during holiday 2020. (Despite concerns of manufacturing delays due to the spread of the coronavirus, Sony recommitted to that date in a financial earnings statement released in May.)
Earlier this year, Sony shared information about the PlayStation 5's GPU, CPU and internal storage in a developer-focused event. It also showed off the console's new DualSense controller, which has a Create button and a built-in microphone array. We also got some sense of what PS5 games could look like in May, thanks to a Unreal Engine 5 demo video released by Epic Games.

The City of Clarkston and Asotin County Transportation Plan will take a critical look at the existing transportation network within the City of Clarkston and the urbanized area of Asotin County. Average daily traffic counts, turning movement counts at selected intersections, collision records, a sign inventory, and geometric data will be collected and evaluated. Evaluation of the data may reveal elements or locations of the system that are not performing well. The Plan will have detailed recommendations for improvement.
The project will also investigate the future transportation system, taking into account the projected growth in the City and County, present and future land uses, and it will evaluate future problems and solutions. The future projection will be based on a 20-year horizon. Capital Improvement Plans (CIPs) will be developed for use in budgeting and prioritizing projects. The MPO will use this information to inform the Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) update in 2020.
The process for this plan will be approximately 12 months, ending in April, 2019.
A public meeting will be held after the final Draft Transportation Plan is completed to receive final input from citizens and to address their concerns. Please contact the MPO for more information.

Got official explanation from the Ministry of Ecology for a Client
Payment of ecology tax in Ukraine
An enterprise of one of our Clients was using a significant amount of fluorescent lamps.
This enterprise had an agreement with a company that would remove out of order lamps from its territory on regular basis but temporary storage of lamps on Client's territory was unavoidable. The Client had an unpleasant situation regarding the latter. When having a conversation with ecology tax inspector the Client was informed that the inspector's department was planning an inspection on compliance with requirement of ecology tax payment. During this conversation the Client found out that due to the storage of wastes within territory of his enterprise (according to tax inspector's understanding) and absence of permit for storage of wastes a fine would be imposed on the enterprise in the amount of more than half a million gryvnyas.
The Client wanted to understand possibility of such fine imposition, its lawfulness, possible ways of appeal against it and judicial practice related to appeals against such fines. The Client was provided with a written legal advice that had been prepared specially for his situation and answered all the Client's questions.
After examination of the advice and discussion with the Client we came to conclusion that along with court settlement of a possible dispute it would be effective to support our position with a conclusion of one of the controlling bodies in the field of ecology. This would allow us to strengthen our position in court. Also it could possibly play a preventive role regarding imposition of fine.
For this purpose we sent a letter to the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Recourses of Ukraine. Official written response of the Ministry signed by the Deputy Minister included such wording as "provision of information". Interpretation of position provided by the response satisfied the Client's interest.
Thus, we've obtained confirmation of our legal conclusion from the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Recourses of Ukraine which strengthened the Client's confidence about the fact that possible actions of tax authorities would be unlawful.
Copy of the document was provided to the tax inspector and as of today the enterprise still hasn't faced the fine.

Impressions from the Brexit Party Rally
As I received an invite to the Brexit Party Rally at the NEC in Birmingham, I went along yesterday to see what I could learn about their policies – apart from wanting Brexit of course. Not that there was a great deal to learn as clearly policies for a prospective general election are still being developed, but there were a few hints. However they do plan to have 600 candidates ready to fight such an election by the Autumn and 100 of them can be seen in the photo left of the event.
It was a lively meeting, and clearly professionally organised. With the party only being in existence for 49 days, it is surprising how much they have achieved already. They are clearly going to be a force to be reckoned with in UK politics whatever happens on Brexit.
The main speakers were Annunziata Rees-Mogg, Richard Tice, Tim Martin and Nigel Farage. Richard Tice is the party Chairman and spoke particularly well. He runs a property firm and was formerly CEO of CLS Holdings – a listed property company. He made it clear that the Brexit party has an "anti-London" focus where they think too much money is spent and have already committed to scrapping HS2. Another big commitment was to scrap interest on student loans and cancel all historic interest.
Tim Martin runs the Wetherspoon pubs and suggested that on a hard Brexit happening we will not need to drink French wine or German/Dutch beer. We can produce it ourselves or import from Australia. But his main focus was on the lack of democracy in the EU. He just wants to leave on WTO terms, i.e. without a deal.
Other speakers argued that the electoral system needs reform with some type of proportional representation introduced, and the House of Lords reformed or scrapped altogether (cheers for that from the audience). The events in the Peterborough by-election where the party failed to win the seat were explained as an abuse of the postal voting system (see below). Reform was also planned for the Civil Service – exactly why or how was not made clear, and the party wants to scrap the BBC License Fee but not scrap the BBC.
Unlike Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt, there was no great commitment for tax hand-outs to bribe the electorate – maybe they will come later. But cancelling HS2, not paying the Brexit bill as proposed in the Withdrawal Agreement and halving the foreign aid budget will create many billions of pounds to spend on the regions outside London.
The Brexit Party is clearly a party of protest – members don't like the EU, don't like Westminster politicians, don't like the BBC who collected boos from the audience, don't like the London elite and the Civil Service, and more…. At a general election they might simply split off a lot of Conservative voters enabling the Labour Party to take power. That is an issue they have yet to tackle.
But that's about all I learned about their policies which are clearly still under development. You can submit your own suggestions for what they should be by sending an email to policy@thebrexitparty.org .
You can see a video of the event and Nigel Farage's speech on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXk0tChqOUk
Voting Reform
The alleged abuse of the postal voting system by the Labour Party in Peterborough is the subject of a legal challenge by the Brexit Party, who only lost by 683 votes. They are lodging a petition under the Representation of the People Act and several allegations of voter fraud are being investigated by the police.
Now I do personally have some experience of how the Labour party operates with postal votes. A few years ago we happened to visit my late mother-in-law when the Labour candidate was visiting to collect her vote. It was clear they had organised a postal vote for her, and had come to ensure she ticked the right box and they then promised to post her vote for her.
She might have been on their list of traditional Labour voters but given her age at the time she was hardly acting independently or with due consideration of the candidate and his policies. In other words, the Labour Party was leading the prospective voters by the nose with a well organised machine to collect votes from those who only had a vague commitment to the candidate and the policies they were supporting.
The Brexit Party certainly have a case to argue for reform in this area.

In a case suitable for the 'only in Australia' file, a snake has been found making its home inside a coffee machine.
Kim Fayfie is the owner of the Bush Kitchen at Crescent Head on the New South Wales Mid North Coast.
"One hundred per cent we've been making coffee with a python in the machine," Mr Fayfie said.
"He didn't want to leave it.
"She thought it might have been blocked or something, and she's looked again and thought, 'Hang on, we've got a bit of an issue here'.
"We haven't got a mice problem at the moment, so he could have been there for a while."
The snake was a non-venomous diamond python, also known as a carpet python, just over two metres long.
Mr Fayfie was able to get the snake out of the coffee machine earlier this week, and it slithered off into nearby bushland.
"We've actually had a couple of brown snakes sneaking into the toilet — we are in the middle of it all here — that's why it's so unique and beautiful," Mr Fayfie said.
Reptile handler Steve McEwan said wild snakes were actually very clean.
"I would say they're cleaner than humans," he said.
"They don't get viruses like humans do. Their skin is made of keratin, it's not porous, so really there's no disease or bug that a wild snake has."
Mr McEwan said he was not surprised that a snake had found its way into a coffee machine.
"I've actually got them in computers, in the back of TVs, in toilets, in cars, virtually anywhere a snake can squeeze into."
