How did the steam engine affect America?
The steam engine helped to power the Industrial Revolution. Before steam power, most factories and mills were powered by water, wind, horse, or man. Steam power allowed for factories to be located anywhere. It also provided reliable power and could be used to power large machines.
How did the steam engine change transportation in America Brainly?
Answer is letter D: it made travel faster and cheaper.
How did steam power revolutionize American industry and systems of transportation?
The steam engine, either used on its own or as part of a train, is the iconic invention of the industrial revolution. Experiments in the seventeenth century turned, by the middle of the nineteenth, into a technology which powered huge factories, allowed deeper mines and moved a transport network.
How did the steam engine impact society today?
Steam power became the energy source for many machines and vehicles, making it cheaper and easier to produce commodities in large amounts. This in turn increased the demand for raw materials used to build more machines that can produce even more commodities.

What was bad about the steam engine?
Pollution. The advent of the steam locomotive and railroad also saw the start of major pollution caused by big business, which is all too often seen today. Polluted rivers and smoke-filled air began to dominate cities, which in turn created poor living and working conditions that gave rise to socialism.
Why is steam so powerful?
The water is still nearby, but it's now in a gaseous form called steam. This form of water is also called water vapor, and it's very powerful stuff. This is because steam has a lot of energy. This is because as you continue to add more heat, more water molecules turn to vapor, and then you're not heating them anymore!
How did the invention of the steam engine first improve land transportation Brainly?
Answer: The steam engine allowed transportation to be faster and more productive. Before the steam engine, the main source of energy was water but it could only be used near a river, but the steam engine could be used anywhere making transportation a lot more accessible.
Why don't we use steam engines anymore?
We don't use steam engines (reciprocating type) any more because we have an advanced manufacturing infrastructure that can cheaply build the more complex but more efficient internal combustion engine. We also have an abundant fossil fuel source to power it. We also have an abundant fossil fuel source to power it.
Are steam engines still used?
Today, there is still one steam locomotive operating on a Class I railroad in the U.S., the Union Pacific 844. For the most part, though, the U.S. and the rest of the world have converted to electric and diesel.

What were the positive and negative effects of the steam engine?
The steam engine brought a more efficient way to power things such as Boats and trains. This allowed goods to be transferred more efficiently. Steam engines lead to the depletion of Fossil fuels and were one of the main causes of pollution.
Do steam trains pollute the air?
Steam trains were indeed faster than wagons, and steam ships faster and stronger than sailing ships. But the smoke they sent into the air polluted the air. However, to make the electricity that trains use; large amounts of coal have to be burned. The smoke also causes air pollution.
What impact did the steam engine have on the industrial revolution?
The introduction of steam engines improved productivity and technology, and allowed the creation of smaller and better engines. After Richard Trevithick's development of the high-pressure engine, transport applications became possible, and steam engines found their way to boats, railways, farms and road vehicles.
Are steam engines good for the environment?
Regarding the effect on environment, if steam engine is 10% efficient and internal combustion 30% efficient, the effect of steam engines on environment would be 3-4 times worse than using gas and diesel. Expect acid rain, deforestation, smog.

Vijay Blackmon earns Big Ten Distinguished Scholar honors
by Indiana Athletics / Jul 10, 2019
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – The Big Ten Conference announced on Tuesday that 1,098 students – including 67 from Indiana athletics teams – have earned the Big Ten Distinguished Scholar Award. The list includes students from all 14 institutions and 38 different sports, who have recorded a minimum grade-point average (GPA) of 3.7 or higher for the previous academic year.
"We are extremely proud of these 67 individuals, who have separated themselves with their excellence in the classroom," said IU Vice President and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Fred Glass. "The Big Ten Distinguished Scholar Award is the highest academic honor that the Big Ten Conference presents to individual student-athletes. To have our second-largest group of honorees ever this year is a credit to each as these individual students as well as our Academic Services and Excellence Academy staff for the tremendous work that they do."
Big Ten Faculty Representatives established the Distinguished Scholar Award in 2008 to supplement the Academic All-Big Ten program. Similar to the Academic All-Big Ten honor, Distinguished Scholar Award recipients must be letter winners in at least their second academic year at their institution. However, the Distinguished Scholar Award encompasses only students with a minimum GPA of 3.7 or higher for the previous academic year, excluding summer school. The Academic All-Big Ten threshold is a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher for a student's academic career.

How can Facebook ads help my business?
Facebook offers powerful and unique ways to show your adverts to the people who are most likely to care about your business.
Reach people based on location, age, gender, interests and much more.
Use tools to understand how they're performing and make them even better.
It really depends on what would help your business achieve objectives, so consider that, then work out how Facebook ads can help you achieve that.
Those are the most common ones. But there are many more things you can do with Facebook ads including increasing attendance to your event, downloads of your app, reaching people in your local area (great for people with a physical location) and more.
What's the trick to Facebook ads?
It really depends on what your objectives are. If your budget is limited, you could get away with $200 – $300 a month on boosted posts only, but this will only achieve that one result – increased visibility on your posts. If you want to be more serious about chasing results via Facebook Advertising, we'd recommend $5 – $7 PER OBJECTIVE you want to fulfil. For example if you want more likes, you'd do a campaign just on that allocating $5- $7 a day just on that. If you want to generate more traffic to your website, add another $5-$7 minimum to achieving that. And on it goes.
Do I need a big following for FB ads to work?
Not necessarily. It's certainly not all about likes these days. It's more about what results you are getting from Facebook. You can have a very low likes base, yet be driving tons of traffic from your Facebook ads direct to your website and generating enquiries and sales. You can also generate enquiries direct on Facebook via the Lead Forms function. Big followings can look impressive, but they're certainly not the be all and end all.
1/ The results displaying in Facebook Business Manager or Ads Manager. There are various drop downs you can apply to slice and dice the data.
2/ Make sure you have Google Analytics and Conversion tracking in place to measure your results from Facebook ads in Google also (they are always about half as good as Facebook reports!) As an agency we like using Google Tag Manager to throw our Google Analytics tracking and Facebook pixels into to keep it all neat and tidy. This also helps make updates easier.
3/ Taking a look at your Facebook Insights (on your page) can also help you understand your audience and how it may be changing subject to your Facebook ads, depending on what type of ad campaign you are running and over what time period.
What's your top tips for effective Facebook ads?
Great imagery that will connect with your audience is key. Careful headlines and calls to actions are essential too. If you are sending traffic to a website, you'll also need a good performing/high converting website to get the maximum results.
When should I start using FB ads?
Once you have established on Facebook, are clear on your objectives and target market, have great imagery, a great offer/hook or general marketing messaging, have downloaded any databases you have access to (for upload to Facebook Business Manager), have a budget allocated and maybe even some video content, you're good to go!
Anything else we should know about ads?
We also love uploading databases clients supply us (acquired scrupulously of course) to Facebook, and then running ad campaigns to them, or lookalike audiences (audiences who look like the database) as then you know you're getting to the 'right' people.
More features are rolling out for Facebook Ads all the time. It's a great space to play in and certainly keeps you on your toes!

A liturgical poet, Talmudist, and commentator of the thirteenth century; older brother of Zedekiah b. Abraham. Perhaps the most gifted and learned of his Roman contemporaries. Although chiefly a poet, Anaw possessed a thorough mastery of halakic literature, and diligently studied philology, mathematics, and astronomy. He wielded a keen, satirical pen. His poetical activity began in 1239, when the apostate Nicholas Donin assailed the Talmud and appealed to Pope Gregory IX. to order its destruction and the persecution of its students. Donin's agitation filled the Roman Jews with terror, and they seem to have appointed a day for fasting and prayer. At that time—and possibly for that fast-day—Anaw composed the penitential hymn V01p568001.jpg V01p568002.jpg, "To whom shall I flee for help"—an acrostic of twelve stanzas (published by the Society Mekiẓe Nirdamim in "Ḳobeẓ 'al Yad," 1888). Donin's endeavors met meanwhile with great success. In June, 1239, several wagon-loads of Talmudic manuscripts were burned in Paris and Rome: at the latter place the Jewish cemetery was destroyed. These events stirred the poet to a bitter elegy V01p568003.jpg, "My heart is convulsed" (ib.), in which he deeply laments the fate of Israel and passionately appeals to God to avenge the desecration of the dead.
Anaw wrote numerous poems for the liturgy, which are embodied in part in the Roman Maḥzor, partly still extant in manuscript. He is the author of the following works: (1) V01p568004.jpg (The Burden of the Valley of Vision), a satirical poem directed against the arrogance of the wealthy and the nobility (Riva di Trento, 1560; reprinted, Lemberg, 1859, by M. Wolf, in his Hebrew chrestomathy, V01p568005.jpg (Israel's Praises). (2) V01p568006.jpg (Alphabetical Commentary), on the Aramaic pieces of the Pentecost liturgy. In this treatise he exhibits a knowledge of Italian, Latin, Greek, and Arabic. (3) "Sefer Yedidut" (Book of Friendship), a ritualistic work, which has disappeared. It is mentioned by Anaw in the preface to his abridgment of Eliezer ben Samuel's "Sefer Yereim." (4) "Sha'are 'Eẓ Ḥayyim" (The Gates Conducting to the Tree of Life), a work on practical ethics, in the form of moral sayings. The poem contains sixty-three strophes, arranged according to the letters of the alphabet. Each chapter deals with one virtue or one vice. Among the subjects treated are love, hospitality, faithfulness, cheating, thankfulness, shame, pride, charity. It was printed in Prague, 1598 (Zunz, "Z. G." p. 280), and reprinted in "Ḳobeẓ 'al Yad" (ed. Mekiẓe Nirdamim, 1884, i. 71 et seq.). (5) Glosses to Rashi's commentary on the Bible and to Solomon b. Shabbethai's commentary on the "Sheëltot." (6) "Rules for Making a Calendar," in which he utilizes his mathematical and astronomical knowledge. This manuscript served several later writers on the same subject. Anaw was in correspondence with Abigdor Cohen, to whom he addressed numerous halakic questions. He himself gave many halakic decisions, which are referred to in his brother's work, "Shibbole ha-Leḳeṭ."
Despite his wide learning, Anaw remained a child of his age. He shared many of its superstitions, vigorously defended haggadic interpretations, and was strictly opposed to all changes in the liturgy. He even discussed with his brother Zedekiah the language of the angels.
Michael, Or ha-Ḥayyim, No. 570.

Q: How can I add separating lines between my TableRows that are created programmatically? I have a TableLayout that is created programmatically in an Android project. I keep adding TableRows as long as there are more rows fetched from the database. Now I want to add separating lines, like a border, between the TableRows.
In my other TableLayout that I created statically from XML I used a View as a separator, style with a style.xml.
I tried adding a View to the tablelayout like so:
View v=new View(this);
         v.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(
                 LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
                 LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
         v.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.rowseparator_shape);
             tr.addView(mTvDate);
             tr.addView(mTvResult);

             tl.addView(tr);
             tl.addView(v);

But it only gets added once after all the collected TableRows. What would be a smart way of adding one View for each tr added? Or should I use something else alltogether?

A: View v = new View(this);
v.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, 1));
v.setBackgroundColor(Color.rgb(51, 51, 51));
tr.addView(mTvDate);
tr.addView(mTvResult);

tl.addView(tr);
tl.addView(v);

Here I'm creating a view that is one pixel high with a specific background color. This works for me.

A: Thanks to Madhusuthanan for this. I spent a while searching for how to do this to simply separate TextViews with a horizontal line. I was creating my view programmatically (without using a Table layout). Here is what I came up with based on the above answer:
View line = new View(this);
line.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, 1));
line.setBackgroundColor(Color.rgb(51, 51, 51));
layout.addView(line);

Simple! Hope this helps someone else!

A: You can use Listview that will be easiler and better than doing this.

Schedule of Events & Movie/Concert Line-up:
6 – 7 pm Singer-Songwriter Spotlight
Live acoustic sets by local talent. Recommend singer-songwriters you'd like to see showcased by visiting the Nasher's social media channels.
7 – 9 pm Live Concerts presented in partnership with KXT
May 15: The Fox and the Bird – With a beautiful harmony and folk sensibility, The Fox and the Bird will mesmerize you with their intoxicating voices and wide range of instrumentals.
June 19: Dallas Arts District Summer Block Party Quiet Company – Come out for the Summer Block Party and enjoy an energetic night with this Austin-based indie rock band. This SXSW 2014 Rock Band of the Year will keep you on your feet and dancing all night long.
July 17: Valise – Dallas' own indie-rock ensemble might only be two years old, but their perfect melodies would have you guessing otherwise. Having held the Central Track's top ten buzz rankings for multiple weeks in a row, they are sure to impress.
August 21: TEAM* – Team* has a fresh and unique sound that will have you craving for more. The Dallas four-piece puts on an amazing show, with a stage presence that can't be beat.
September 18: Dallas Arts District Fall Block Party The Roomsounds – If you're a classic rock lover, look no further. The Roomsounds were influenced by the Beatles, Stones, Tom Petty, and many more. They bring an unbeatable high energy to each and every one of their shows.
October 16: 7-9 pm: Salim Nourallah Boombox Experiment – Salim Nourallah, singer and songwriter, was named one of Dallas' 100 Creatives in 2014. Often referred to as 'the lost Beatle,' Salim's music has that rare quality that will make you feel as if time was standing still. He is one of the most acclaimed musicians and producers in the area, and seven of his solo albums have been produced by three great indie labels.
9- 11 pm: The Cush – In the time-honored tradition of husband and wife duos, providing the creative core and identity of a band, Burette and Gabrielle Douglas bring a sound and musical vision all their own to The Cush.
9 – 11 pm Film Screenings in the Garden
May 15: Into the Woods (NR, 1991) Original Broadway Cast Production – With songs and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and a book by James Lapine, who also directed the stage production, Into the Woods humorously combines a number of classic fairy tales into one over-arching narrative. A baker and his wife are assigned a number of tasks by a nearby witch; only after completing these duties will they be able to give birth. During their quest to fulfill the witches' demands, they encounter Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Cinderella, and numerous other fairy tale figures. The traditional stories are parodied and altered at will, yet the original fairy tales' sense of wonder and, at times, darkness remains intact. Winner of several Tony Awards, including Best Score, Best Book, and Best Actress in a Musical (Joanna Gleason).
June 19: A Fish Called Wanda (Edited for wider audience, 1988) – A hilarious tale of criminal incompetence and fairly uninhibited vulgarity, this 1988 film is about a diamond heist, starring Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Kline, John Cleese, and Michael Du Prez. Watch as these characters attempt to manipulate and double-cross one another to find the hidden loot. Get entangled in their web of greed, romance, and foolishness as these thieves battle it out for the stolen jewels.
July 17: Big Eyes (PG-13, 2014) – Based on the true story of Walter Keane, Big Eyes tells the story of a 1950s-60s artist who catapulted to fame through his wife's paintings, which featured waifs with big eyes. The Keane's had been living a colossal lie that would soon come to light. This Tim Burton film gives insight to the 1950s sexual politics and art-world deceit.
August 21: The Lego Movie (PG, 2014) – The Lego Movie is far from the average toy movie, but rather a charming and brilliant film from beginning to end. It's an animated adventure of the thought to be 'Special' logo man, who is prophesied to save the Lego community from the evil glue tyrant, but turns out that he is just the average Joe. Come enjoy this comedic film as you will find yourself cheering on 'Special' as he embarks on his quest.
September 18: Empire Records (PG-13, 1995) – A classic teen comedy from the 90s, Empire Records tells the story of a few employees of a small, independent music store who band together to save it from being bought out by a large chain. As the day goes on, the somewhat misfit workers devise a plan, even as they deal with their own personal problems along the way.
7:30 & 9:30 pm Social Media Scavenger Hunt
Participate in the social media scavenger hunts for your chances to win Nasher prizes.
6 – 9:30 pm Picnic Dining for Two and Grab & Go Food by Wolfgang Puck Catering
Guests may pre-reserve a picnic dinner for two for $40 at www.nashersculpturecenter.org/tilmidnight or enjoy grab & go food items and beverages in the garden.

Friday, 1st April 2011, 7.30pm. Old St. Paul's, Edinburgh. Entry £6 – 10 sliding scale depending upon what you can afford.
Come along and join us for a delicious 3 course organic vegan meal, live music and entertainments through the night, provided by the Coal Action Scotland collective. The event is to help raise funds and spread awareness about the massive expansion of the coal industry in Scotland. Bring your friends, your colleagues, your family… and their families! All are welcome.
We try to make all our events as accessible to everybody as possible and as such we are happy to cater for any dietary or accessibility requirements that you or your friends may have. We just ask that you let us know in advance so we can prepare for these properly.
Tickets can be purchased in advance from the forest cafe, reserved by emailing the address above or bought on the night. However, due to demand at previous banquets we recommend buying/reserving tickets in advance to ensure you get a seat (especially if you may be late).
All proceeds go to CAS, a collective which exists to challenge the devastating expanse of the coal industry throughout Scotland. Coal is one of the most carbon intensive industries and current rates of extraction, transportation and combustion are having dramatic effects on local and global ecosystems and the environment.
All these processes have equally horrific effects on human health both here in Scotland and throughout the world.
Despite these facts and because of hypocritical government policies, much of the industrial world is still inextricably linked to coal and Scotland is no different. We at CAS exist to challenge the reliance on this unsustainable fossil fuel and work towards creating positive solutions with communities who pay the true costs of the coal; the fuel which perpetuates and catalyses our current course of ecocide and planetary collapse.

Press Release | Federal Communications Commission
The Federal Communications Commission is committing over $65 million in new funding round through the Emergency Connectivity Program (ECP), which provides digital services for students in communities across the country. The funding commitments support applications from the third application window, benefiting approximately 170,000 students across the country, including students in Alaska, Indiana, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Puerto Rico, and Texas. The funding can be used to support off-campus learning, such as nightly homework, to ensure students across the country have the necessary support to keep up with their education.
Biden-Harris Administration Announces More Than $18.5 Million in Internet for All Grants to Five Minority-Serving Colleges and Universities
The Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA has awarded five grants as part of the Connecting Minority Communities Pilot Program (CMC). These grants, totaling over $18.5 million, will expand community technology hubs, upgrade classroom technology, and increase digital literacy skills at five minority-serving institutions in California, Missouri, Louisiana, and Alabama. The CMC grants, directed by NTIA's Office of Minority Broadband Initiatives, cover costs such as the purchase of high-speed Internet service and eligible equipment, the hiring and training of information technology personnel, and innovation and workforce development efforts.  The awards will help expand high-speed Internet access at the following educational institutions:
California State University, Dominguez Hills (CA);
California State University, Fresno (CA);
Lincoln University of Missouri (MO);
University of West Alabama (AL);
Southern University and A&M College (LA).
Biden-Harris Administration Awards More Than $6.3 Million to Michigan in 'Internet for All' Planning Grants
The Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) announced that Michigan received its first "Internet for All" grants for deploying high-speed Internet networks and developing digital skills training programs under the Biden-Harris Administration's Internet for All initiative. Michigan is receiving $6,326,649.52 in funding from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to plan for the deployment and adoption of affordable, equitable, and reliable high-speed Internet service throughout the state. Michigan will receive $4,998,701.52 to fund various activities including:
Developing Michigan's "MI Connected Future" project, including a 5-year action plan to close the broadband availability gap;
Identifying unserved and underserved locations;
Building capacity of the state broadband office;
Mapping assets across Michigan to catalog high-speed Internet service adoption, affordability, equity, access and deployment;
Surveying communities to better understand barriers to Internet service adoption.
Michigan will also receive $1,327,948 for:
Development of a statewide digital equity plan to close the digital equity gap;
Identification of barriers to digital equity and an assessment of needs;
Development of an implementation strategy and establishment of partnerships.
Gerrymandering may come to broadband buildout, courtesy of the 80% rule
Mike Conlow | Analysis | Substack
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) is clear: the $42.5 billion for broadband buildout should prioritize projects for the unserved. Specifically, states should prioritize projects where 80% of the locations served by the project are unserved. It may be impossible to reach all the unserved with projects that are 80% or more unserved without gerrymandering the project areas or changing the rules. Census block groups work well as a proxy for broadband project areas because they're not too big and not too small. There are 5.9 million populated block groups nationally with an average of 24 housing units per block group. I'm not suggesting that project should follow block group boundaries, only that they work well as a visualization for the concentration of unserved locations. However, nationally, 1 million of the 7.8 million unserved locations are in block groups that are already 80%+ unserved. By contrast, 3.6 million unserved locations are in block groups that are less than 50% unserved. The only solutions I can think of are to allow gerrymandering of the project areas, relax the 80% rule, or include additional locations as unserved for the purpose of defining the project areas.
The Individual FCC Map Challenge
Doug Dawson | Analysis | CCG Consulting
Hopefully, the word is getting out that individuals can challenge the Federal Communications Commission's new National Broadband Map. Broadband providers often claim coverage and broadband speeds that are not actually available. The challenge process is built directly into the FCC broadband map. Anybody can zero in on the map and see the broadband options that providers say are available at their location. If you challenge any of these items for a given provider, the FCC will forward your challenge to said provider. If that broadband provider doesn't respond or dispute the challenge, it must change its reporting for that location on the FCC map. For example, if it doesn't offer service at your location, it must take you off its FCC map. If the provider doesn't offer the speed claimed to the FCC, it would have to lower the claimed speed it offers. The real benefit of the challenge process will come if enough people in neighborhoods make the complaint to get the area maps corrected.
State/Local/Tribal
Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development Undertake Historic Broadband Funding Expansion
Press Release | Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development
The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) launched a Request for Proposals (RFP) to award $67.6 million in broadband grants across the state. It further accelerates the Border-to-Border program in pursuit of Minnesota's 2026 goal that all homes and businesses have access to broadband with download speeds of at least 100 megabits per second and upload speeds of at least 20 megabits per second. Eligible broadband providers can use grant funding to reimburse up to half the cost of broadband infrastructure deployed. Applications must be received by March 2, 2023. Grants will be awarded in early summer, 2023. Additionally, Governor Walz commits $99.6 million in broadband grants for 61 projects in 48 counties, expected to connect to more than 33,000 Minnesota homes and businesses to high-speed broadband. It was the largest single investment in broadband in Minnesota history; before then, DEED had awarded nearly $130 million in Border-to-Border grants to connect more than 57,000 homes and businesses around Minnesota to high-speed broadband since the program's inception in 2014.
Sacramento awards minuscule $1.4 Million for private wireless to close digital divide
Linda Hardesty | Fierce
A group of vendors has been working on a CBRS private wireless network for a school in an underprivileged area of Sacramento, California, for a couple of years. And as a result of their trial, the Sacramento City Council recently approved $1.4 million in funding to create a permanent private 5G network for the school and two public housing communities in the city. The vendors involved in the project include Athonet, Federated Wireless, Intel, JMA Wireless, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Megh Computing, and Future Technologies Venture. They joined forces to create a model for private CBRS networks, which they hope to scale statewide in California. According to a recent announcement from the Sacramento City Council, at full implementation, 751 residents between two communities — Marina Vista and Alder Grove — as well as Leataata Floyd Elementary School and Health Professional High School will have free broadband access for at least five years. Yet, $1.4 million for full implementation of this project isn't a lot of money in the world of broadband projects. Federated Wireless and AWS declined to comment.

This summer, the mountains moved in Hoopa Valley (CA). As a wildfire burned through trees and vegetation, a thunderstorm dropped two inches of rain in one day. Meanwhile, online, residents were clamoring to Facebook to learn what had happened. Others started to email Frank, who serves as a youth coordinator with Save California Salmon and Miss Na:tini-we', a cultural and political ambassador for the Hoopa Valley Tribe. She didn't have any answers at first. Together with her coworkers, she tried to assess the damage, but there was no cell service, no cellular data, or internet near the river. It took three days before she could gather the information and find a connection to publish it online. But the demand for the internet has outstripped the region's limited infrastructure. However, fall of 2022, the Hoopa Valley Utilities District received more than $65 million in funding from the federal government to improve its internet infrastructure. The new grant will expand the current wireless network and introduce underground cables that connect directly to homes. The expansion plans to connect 1,000 households in the tribe, 64 businesses, and 19 community institutions like schools and hospitals. The wires are just a start, though as many residents, especially older ones, need support learning how to use or trust technology.
Loyaan Egal | Public Notice | Federal Communications Commission
The Enforcement Bureau of the Federal Communications Commission has entered into a Consent Decree to resolve its investigation into whether Cellco Partnership d/b/a Verizon Wireless (Verizon Wireless) constructed wireless facilities without complying with the Commission's environmental and historic preservation rules, including rules implementing the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) and the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). The FCC's rules also direct these entities to coordinate with relevant state governments and tribal nations. To settle this matter, Verizon Wireless (i) admits that it violated the FC's environmental and historic preservation rules by prematurely constructing wireless facilities prior to completing the required environmental or historical reviews and by constructing wireless facilities without onsite monitoring as requested by the affected tribes, (ii) will implement a robust compliance plan to ensure that it does not violate these rules in the future, and (iii) will pay a $950,000 civil penalty.
FCC Deadlock Shields Wireless Companies From Privacy Penalties
Drew FitzGerald | Wall Street Journal
Cellphone carriers facing roughly $200 million in fines for sharing their customers' locations are for now shielded from paying by the Federal Communications Commission's partisan deadlock. The FCC has four commissioners—two Democrats and two Republicans—and needs at least three votes to move forward with fines it proposed years ago on the biggest wireless-service providers. FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel, a Democrat, in August circulated four forfeiture orders penalizing AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile US, and Verizon Communications for allegedly mishandling access to the real-time whereabouts of their subscribers, the people said. The commission hasn't yet published the forfeiture orders. The FCC can't issue the orders without approval from at least three commissioners. The two Democrats on the commission have voted to approve the fines, while their Republican counterparts have yet to vote.
States, courts – not Congress or the FCC – could rule telecom policy in 2023
Congress and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will have plenty of telecommunications issues on their plate as the country heads into 2023. Tax breaks for grant funding; ReConnect reform; Pole attachment problems; and perhaps even net neutrality – again. But New Street Research's Blair Levin said a handful of truly pressing policy issues appear poised to be decided by the states and courts. According to Levin, a recent ruling by the Supreme Court in the West Virginia v. EPA case opened the door for anyone to "question anything the FCC does and provides new grounds for challenging" rules they don't like. With this in mind, Levin said there are two court cases he's got his eye on going into 2023: one in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit (Consumers' Research v. FCC) weighing the constitutionality of the Universal Service Fund (USF) and another in New York looking at whether the state has the authority to require broadband providers to offer broadband plans at a certain price point. Levin said unlike other attempts to challenge the FCC's authority, the 5th Circuit case is not frivolous as it could force the FCC and Congress to act to address the continued viability of the current USF system and weigh the related issue of what happens when money from the $14.2 billion Affordably Connectivity Program (ACP) runs out.
Analyst Asks If Cable Is a Good Business and the Answer Doesn't Mention TV
Jon Lafayette | Next TV
Top cable industry analyst Craig Moffett issued a report with a provocative title, asking, "Is cable a good business?" Clearly, MoffettNathanson's principal and senior analyst believes Wall Street doesn't think so. The future of the cable business lies in how much it will cost to upgrade broadband service, whether that expands the customer base, and how much revenue each customer generates. Moffett points out that when Charter Communications announced its capital spending plans, all of the major publicly traded cable stocks fell, even though Charter's news was that its spending would be less than Wall Street had expected. Investors are also concerned about the threat that fixed wireless presents to cable broadband, Moffett said. Longer term, the bigger threat to cable broadband is likely fiber rather than fixed wireless. But even with that, the analyst seems to be less concerned that cable operators will overspend on fiber or that overbuilders will present more competition.
Color Of Change, Free Press Action and MediaJustice Urge Senate Leaders to Reject Bigoted Smear Campaign Against FCC Nominee Gigi Sohn
Letter | Free Press
Color Of Change, Free Press Action and MediaJustice urged the Senate to confirm Gigi Sohn [Senior Fellow and Public Advocate at the Benton Institute for Broadband & Society] to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) during the final days of the 117th Congress. "We are deeply concerned that antisemitic, homophobic, and racist smears against Sohn have contributed to the inaction of the Senate on her confirmation. These attacks, which reflect a nationwide rise in antisemitism and backlash against progress made by Black people, women, and LGBTQIA+ people, provide an ugly backdrop for industry efforts to maintain a 2-2 tie at the Commission. Telecommunications firms, cable companies, and licensed broadcasters regulated by the FCC are invested in stopping the agency from carrying out its mission to serve the public interest. The senseless delay in confirming Ms. Sohn only benefits large broadcasters and internet service providers and harms millions of people, especially working families trying to pay their rising monthly bills. The failure to confirm Sohn has slowed the agency's ability to adopt policies to close the digital divide, which disproportionately impacts Black and Brown people's internet adoption, enforces our nation's communications law, promotes diversity and localism in broadcast ownership, and more."

The origin of digits in land vertebrates is hotly debated, but a new study suggests that human hands likely evolved from the fins of Elpistostege, a fish that lived more than 380 million years ago.
By John Long, Flinders University and Richard Cloutier, Université du Québec à Rimouski (UQAR)
One of the most significant events in the history of life was when fish evolved into tetrapods, crawling out of the water and eventually conquering land. The term tetrapod refers to four-limbed vertebrates, including humans.
To complete this transition, several anatomical changes were necessary. One of the most important was the evolution of hands and feet.
Working with researchers from the University of Quebec, in 2010 we discovered the first complete specimen of Elpistostege watsoni. This tetrapod-like fish lived more than 380 million years ago, and belonged to a group called elpistostegalians.
Our research based on this specimen, published today in Nature, suggests human hands likely evolved from the fins of this fish, which we'll refer to by its genus name, Elpistostege.
Elpistostegalians are an extinct group that displayed features of both lobe-finned fish and early tetrapods. They were likely involved in bridging the gap between prehistoric fish and animals capable of living on land.
Thus, our latest finding offers valuable insight into the evolution of the vertebrate hand.
The best specimen we've ever found
To understand how fish fins became limbs (arms and legs with digits) through evolution, we studied the fossils of extinct lobe-finned fishes and early tetrapods.
Lobe-fins include bony fishes (Osteichthyes) with robust fins, such as lungfishes and coelacanths.
Elpistostegalians lived between 393–359 million years ago, during the Middle and Upper Devonian times. Our finding of a complete 1.57 meter (5-foot) Elpistostege – uncovered from Miguasha National Park in Quebec, Canada – is the first instance of a complete skeleton of any elpistostegalian fish fossil.
Prior to this, the most complete elpistostegalian specimen was a Tiktaalik roseae skeleton found in the Canadian Arctic in 2004, but it was missing the extreme end part of its fin.
When fins became limbs
The origin of digits in land vertebrates is hotly debated.
The tiny bones in the tip of the pectoral fins of fishes such as Elpistostege are called "radial" bones. When radials form a series of rows, like digits, they are essentially the same as fingers in tetrapods.
The only difference is that, in these advanced fishes, the digits are still locked within the fin, and not yet free moving like human fingers.
Our recently uncovered Elpistostege specimen reveals the presence of a humerus (arm), radius and ulna (forearm), rows of carpal bones (wrist) and smaller bones organised in discrete rows.
We believe this is the first evidence of digit bones found in a fish fin with fin-rays (the bony rays that support the fin). This suggests the fingers of vertebrates, including of human hands, first evolved as rows of digit bones in the fins of elpistostegalian fishes.
What's the evolutionary advantage?
From an evolutionary perspective, rows of digit bones in prehistoric fish fins would have provided flexibility for the fin to more effectively bear weight.
This could have been useful when Elpistostege was either plodding along in the shallows, or trying to move out of water onto land. Eventually, the increased use of such fins would have lead to the loss of fin-rays and the emergence of digits in rows, forming a larger surface area for the limb to grip the land surface.
Our specimen shows many features not known before, and will form the basis of a series of future papers describing in detail its skull, and other aspects of its body skeleton.
Elpistostege blurs the line between fish and vertebrates capable of living on land. It's not necessarily our ancestor, but it's now the closest example we have of a "transitional fossil", closing the gap between fish and tetrapods.
The full picture
The first Elpistostege fossil, a skull fragment, was found in the late 1930s. It was thought to belong to an early amphibian. In the mid 1980s the front half of the skull was found, and was confirmed to be an advanced lobe-finned fish.
Our new, complete specimen was discovered in the fossil-rich cliffs of the Miguasha National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Eastern Canada. Miguasha is considered one of the best sites to study fish fossils from the Devonian period (known as the "Age of Fish"), as it contains a very large number of lobe-finned fish fossils, in an exceptional state of preservation.

Bottom line: A new study suggests that human hands likely evolved from the fins of Elpistostege, a fish that lived more than 380 million years ago.

Neymar has represented Brazil at Under-17, Under-20 and senior levels. On 10 August 2010, at the age of 18, he made his debut for the Seleção in a friendly match against the United States; he scored from a header in the 28th minute, contributing to Brazil's 2–0 win. In the 2013 Confederations Cup on home soil, Neymar scored Brazil's second goal in the 3–0 final win over Spain. Neymar's performances saw him awarded the golden ball for the best player of the tournament. With 31 goals in 48 matches for Brazil, he is the eleventh highest goalscorer for his national team.At the age of 19, Neymar won the 2011 South American Footballer of the Year award. He followed this up by winning it again in 2012. He is known for his acceleration, speed, dribbling, finishing and ability with both feet.


Because each was equipped with the optional Sport Package, both of our test cars had "multi-contoured" power sport seats, which we found comfortable. An additional seat adjustment, which tilts the upper section of the backrest forward independently, is a cherished feature. Likewise for the power-extending bottom cushion, though the gap it forms collects enough crud to clog a Dustbuster. We were satisfied with the front seats' overall comfort and dimensions, but we wouldn't have minded a little more front-seat legroom.
Despite the larger exterior, the 5 Series' interior isn't notably roomier than before. Most seating dimensions increase or decrease by no more than a tenth of an inch or so, though front headroom is up 1.4 inches, and there's an inch more shoulder room up there. Shoulder room is an inch narrower in the backseat. While it's workable, the backseat isn't exceptionally roomy. By the numbers alone, nothing in this class has impressive rear legroom, though we found the Infiniti M sedan's backseat more accommodating. The midsize luxury sedan class is dominated by rear- and all-wheel-drive cars, which mean a large center floor hump. Call them five-seaters if you want, but those center seats are less usable than in other cars.
Characteristic of BMWs, the 5 Series' cabin is relatively simple and spare, mostly in a good way. The instruments, though, are too plain in a market segment full of glowing electroluminescent gauges, though you can opt for a head-up display that projects crucial info onto the windshield. The 5 Series' interior is otherwise a deft exercise in restraint. The materials are high-quality overall, with elements like standard genuine wood trim, or real aluminum available as a no-cost alternative. One big sticking point for me — which, again, is par for the course with BMWs — is the standard leatherette (that's fake leather) seats in the 528i and 535i. Real leather is optional on these and standard on the 550i.
Though BMW has high-quality vinyl, the lack of real leather at these prices is hard to swallow. Archrival Mercedes-Benz is guilty of the same, but comparable models from Audi, Infiniti, Jaguar and Volvo all have leather to start, and some of those are priced lower.
Frankly, this isn't a new phenomenon for BMW, or even for the luxury class, where you're more likely to pay for features that come standard in the most affordable of vehicles. For example, practically every new entry-level car comes standard with a folding backseat, and, increasingly, an iPod connector. In the 5 Series, they'll cost you $475 and $400, respectively.
One after another of our editors remarked about the shortage of features at our 535i's $58,275 as-tested price. It had no navigation, no heated or cooled seats, no backup camera. On the upside, though some of these items are included in packages, you can also get them a la carte, so you're not forced to pay extra for something you might not want.
The standard sedan has a 7-inch display and an abbreviated version of the iDrive control system, which employs a multifunction knob/joystick and a cluster of buttons on the center console. With the $1,900 navigation option, the screen increases to 10.2 inches and includes voice activation and traffic information. iDrive controls many audio system functions, the telephone, the BMW Assist telematics system and numerous vehicle settings.
BMW's iDrive has earned disdain over the years, but the current generation is actually pretty good. To my way of thinking, the issue has never been how hard it might be to learn but how simple it is to operate once you do learn it, and that's the aspect that has improved. Don't let iDrive's reputation distract you from the true ergonomic foibles on this and other BMWs: I speak of the electronic gear selector and turn-signal stalk, both of which immediately spring back to a center position after you move them rather than stay where you put them. With this design, you lose the ingrained and perfectly natural feedback of a turn signal that's still on and a transmission that's in the gear you want. As a result, you're always looking for displays just to make sure you don't, for example, roll the wrong way when you lift off the brake.
Are these controls bothersome enough to break the deal for a would-be buyer? You'd be surprised, but the BMW faithful have overlooked such things because of the vaunted BMW driving experience. So how's that going in 2011?


A recent study reported that nearly half of almost 200 adults that were exposed to Libby amphibole asbestos as adolescents were subject to pleural thickening in their lungs later in life, a condition that's most commonly associated with asbestos exposure.
While the rate of pleural lining for this group was almost 50 percent, the average rate for this diagnosis ranges from .2 to 6.5 percent in people with no known asbestos exposure — a seven to 250 times greater risk.
In 1899, the first reported case of lung scarring caused by asbestos was written by Dr. H. Montague Murray. He described the lung scars as "curious bodies." These curious bodies are too-well known by the people of Libby who were continuously poisoned by the WR Grace Mine for many years.
Now, the effects of asbestos on the body are well known, but new data is still being continually studied and published in medical journals across the world.
In October of this year, a piece of the three-fold research project into the effects of Libby amphibole asbestos added to the bulk of research scientists and doctors have.
This study evaluated lung findings among 198 otherwise healthy adults who attended primary or secondary school and lived in Libby prior to a certain age.
Of the 198 participants who averaged 50 years of age, pleural thickening, or thickening of the lungs' outer lining, was found in 96 (48 percent). In almost half of these, it was of the lamellar (layered) type which is not generally seen in exposure to other asbestos, and was further shown in the article to lead to greater decrement in pulmonary function compared to circumscribed pleural thickening.
These adults had been environmentally exposed to Libby Amphibole only during childhood and adolescence through mostly non-occupational and low exposure, whom subsequently left the area after a certain age, some of which returned to Libby within the five years prior to their CT scan.
According to the article, as they were children, 92 had participated in recreational activities along Rainy Creek Road, 180 played in, or watched games at the largely contaminated downtown ballfield, 134 played in piles of vermiculite, 134 used the asbestos-lined Middle School Track outside of scheduled gym classes, 107 heated-up vermiculite ore in science classes, 121 gardened in soil that contained vermiculite and 171 burned asbestos-dust covered firewood in their homes.
Studies have been done before on children and adolescents exposed to asbestos, but the studies prior to "The Pre-Adult Latency Study" did not include chest CT scans, which are necessary to identify the progression of pleural scarring in Libby patients.
While a CT scan is necessary to be sure if a person has pleural thickening, the subjects also underwent a pulmonary function test. The test studies how deep the subject can inhale and how hard they can exhale.
People who have pleural thickening have a comparatively more difficult time breathing out and taking deep breaths than people with healthy lungs.
• They lived in the Libby/Troy area for at least six months but left the area prior to age 21 years for females and 23 years for males.
• They had at least 15 years between the first potential exposure to Libby amphibole and the date of CT scan used in the study.
• They never worked directly for or as a contractor of the vermiculite mine in Libby.
• They had not returned to the area after the age limits as mentioned above, to live or work (this was their initial requirements, but later expanded their test-subjects to include those who returned five years prior to the CT scan).
Those who lived there for more than two years prior to 1990 had a six to seven times greater likelihood of pleural thickening than those who lived in the area for less than two years.
The frequency (48 percent) of subjects who showed pleural thickening on CT scan exceeds the frequency of this finding in many occupationally exposed groups.
On top of these findings, they also found that subjects with pleural thickening were three times more likely to be male than female.
One of the criticisms of studies on pleural thickening in the past, is that 56 percent subjects were overweight — which is associated with pleural thickening. However, Dr. Pfau said that their subjects were on-average with the rest of the country, and the Body Mass Index of the patients did not affect the level of pleural thickening.
The research project began when the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry awarded a $5 million grant to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in 2009, in partnership with researchers at Idaho State University and Montana State University, to create the Libby Epidemiology Research Program, which had the mission of furthering research in long-term health effects of amphibole asbestos in Libby and the surrounding community. The three-fold research project included the Pre-Latency Study, CT Progression Study and Autoimmune Outcomes.
Obviously not all of the asbestos is gone from Libby, Pfau said, but a huge amount is gone. Therefore, children growing up in Libby at this time, she said, are at a much lower risk of exposure than children exposed before the EPA started cleaning.
Pfau noted that one of the purposes of the study was to help doctors diagnose people with pleural thickening who lived in Libby or areas like Libby. Most doctors may do an X-ray, but X-rays will only show a shadow, Pfau said, and even then, a doctor has to really look for it. If a doctor knows to do a CT scan, a procedure that is less commonly used due the radiation output, they will be able to see it. That way, she said, patients with pleural thickening don't walk away from a doctor's visit thinking it's their fault that they can't breathe.
