My best friend and I have this very nice tradition to go to an new place once a year. This year we decided to go for Norway and I must say it was a great idea!We arrived on Thursday 12th of March late evening and left Oslo on Monday 16th of March early morning. In total 3 full days trip.
We landed on OSL (Oslo Gardermoen Airport) and to reach the city center we took the airport train Flytoget. A single ticket costs 180 NOK (Return 360) till Oslo Central Station (Oslo S) or National Theatre (prices will vary if you need to reach a different station) The trains are every 10 or 20 minutes depending on the hour. Last Train you can get is at 00:50. The airport train has free Wi-Fi.Afterwards we had to take the Metro (T) Ruter for one stop. The price per single (1 h) trip is 30 NOK. A 24h ticket is 180 NOK.


OK so this is the last challenge I'm signing up for in 2012 (well unless I see something else I just can't resist anyway lol). I've heard so many good things about the Morganville Vampires series that I actually bought the first 9 books before I even started reading the series. I finally read the first book in November and really enjoyed it so it's about time I got around to finishing the rest of the series. The Morganville Vampires Reading Challenge is being hosted by Jo over at Ink and Paper & I have to thank her for giving me the excuse to finally dig into these books.
Bishop: Books 1-13, plus all short stories (in anthologies or otherwise).
If you want to join me in taking part in the challenge you can sign up here. I'll add links to my reviews below as I post them.
So as you can see I failed abysmally at this challenge and I've still only read the first book in the Morganville series. I really thought it would be easy reading less than 1 book a month so I'm not sure why it went so horribly wrong! I really must carry on reading these books soon though because I know I'm going to love them.
Yay! I love Morganville - you're in for a treat. They really are brilliant.
Thanks for signing up, Sarah! I hope you enjoy the series, it's amazing! Good luck!
Thanks for hosting the challenge Jo, you've given me the perfect excuse to read the series which is something Ive been wanting to do since before I started blogging!
Seems like your a fan of the Morganville Vampires as well like me!! :) Just thought you'd like to know about my blog and probably be interested in joining as its all about Morganville Vampires!!! Heres the link and by the way it's new..... www.morganvillevampirestexas.blogspot.com ... ...hope you join and enjoy!!

Bubble sort
Find sources: "Bubble sort" – news · newspapers · books · scholar · JSTOR (November 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Bubble sort, sometimes referred to as sinking sort, is a simple sorting algorithm that repeatedly steps through the list, compares adjacent elements and swaps them if they are in the wrong order. The pass through the list is repeated until the list is sorted. The algorithm, which is a comparison sort, is named for the way smaller or larger elements "bubble" to the top of the list.
Static visualization of bubble sort[1]
Sorting algorithm
Worst-case performance
O ( n 2 ) {\displaystyle O(n^{2})} comparisons, O ( n 2 ) {\displaystyle O(n^{2})} swaps
Best-case performance
O ( n ) {\displaystyle O(n)} comparisons, O ( 1 ) {\displaystyle O(1)} swaps
Average performance
Worst-case space complexity
O ( n ) {\displaystyle O(n)} total, O ( 1 ) {\displaystyle O(1)} auxiliary
This simple algorithm performs poorly in real world use and is used primarily as an educational tool. More efficient algorithms such as quicksort, timsort, or merge sort are used by the sorting libraries built into popular programming languages such as Python and Java.[2][3]

5 Debate over name
AnalysisEdit
An example of bubble sort. Starting from the beginning of the list, compare every adjacent pair, swap their position if they are not in the right order (the latter one is smaller than the former one). After each iteration, one less element (the last one) is needed to be compared until there are no more elements left to be compared.
PerformanceEdit
Bubble sort has a worst-case and average complexity of O ( n 2 ) {\displaystyle O(n^{2})}
, where n {\displaystyle n}
is the number of items being sorted. Most practical sorting algorithms have substantially better worst-case or average complexity, often O ( n log  n ) {\displaystyle O(n\log n)}
. Even other O ( n 2 ) {\displaystyle O(n^{2})}
sorting algorithms, such as insertion sort, generally run faster than bubble sort, and are no more complex. Therefore, bubble sort is not a practical sorting algorithm.
The only significant advantage that bubble sort has over most other algorithms, even quicksort, but not insertion sort, is that the ability to detect that the list is sorted efficiently is built into the algorithm. When the list is already sorted (best-case), the complexity of bubble sort is only O ( n ) {\displaystyle O(n)}
. By contrast, most other algorithms, even those with better average-case complexity, perform their entire sorting process on the set and thus are more complex. However, not only does insertion sort share this advantage, but it also performs better on a list that is substantially sorted (having a small number of inversions). Additionally, if this behavior is desired, it can be trivially added to any other algorithm by checking the list before the algorithm runs.
Rabbits and TurtlesEdit
The distance and direction that elements must move during the sort determine bubble sort's performance because elements move in different directions at different speeds. An element that must move toward the end of the list can move quickly because it can take part in successive swaps. For example, the largest element in the list will win every swap, so it moves to its sorted position on the first pass even if it starts near the beginning. On the other hand, an element that must move toward the beginning of the list cannot move faster than one step per pass, so elements move toward the beginning very slowly. If the smallest element is at the end of the list, it will take n − 1 {\displaystyle n-1}
passes to move it to the beginning. This has led to these types of elements being named rabbits and turtles, respectively, after the characters in Aesop's fable of The Tortoise and the Hare.
Various efforts have been made to eliminate turtles to improve upon the speed of bubble sort. Cocktail sort is a bi-directional bubble sort that goes from beginning to end, and then reverses itself, going end to beginning. It can move turtles fairly well, but it retains O ( n 2 ) {\displaystyle O(n^{2})}
worst-case complexity. Comb sort compares elements separated by large gaps, and can move turtles extremely quickly before proceeding to smaller and smaller gaps to smooth out the list. Its average speed is comparable to faster algorithms like quicksort.
Step-by-step exampleEdit
Take an array of numbers "5 1 4 2 8", and sort the array from lowest number to greatest number using bubble sort. In each step, elements written in bold are being compared. Three passes will be required;
First Pass
( 5 1 4 2 8 ) → ( 1 5 4 2 8 ), Here, algorithm compares the first two elements, and swaps since 5 > 1.
( 1 5 4 2 8 ) → ( 1 4 5 2 8 ), Swap since 5 > 4
( 1 4 2 5 8 ) → ( 1 4 2 5 8 ), Now, since these elements are already in order (8 > 5), algorithm does not swap them.
Second Pass
( 1 4 2 5 8 ) → ( 1 4 2 5 8 )
Now, the array is already sorted, but the algorithm does not know if it is completed. The algorithm needs one additional whole pass without any swap to know it is sorted.
Third Pass
ImplementationEdit
Pseudocode implementationEdit
In pseudocode the algorithm can be expressed as (0-based array):
procedure bubbleSort(A : list of sortable items)
n := length(A)
swapped := false
for i := 1 to n-1 inclusive do
/* if this pair is out of order */
if A[i-1] > A[i] then
/* swap them and remember something changed */
swap(A[i-1], A[i])
swapped := true
end for
until not swapped
end procedure
Optimizing bubble sortEdit
The bubble sort algorithm can be optimized by observing that the n-th pass finds the n-th largest element and puts it into its final place. So, the inner loop can avoid looking at the last n − 1 items when running for the n-th time:
for i := 1 to n - 1 inclusive do
if A[i - 1] > A[i] then
swap(A[i - 1], A[i])
n := n - 1
More generally, it can happen that more than one element is placed in their final position on a single pass. In particular, after every pass, all elements after the last swap are sorted, and do not need to be checked again. This allows to skip over many elements, resulting in about a worst case 50% improvement in comparison count (though no improvement in swap counts), and adds very little complexity because the new code subsumes the "swapped" variable:
To accomplish this in pseudocode, the following can be written:
newn := 0
newn := i
n := newn
until n ≤ 1
Alternate modifications, such as the cocktail shaker sort attempt to improve on the bubble sort performance while keeping the same idea of repeatedly comparing and swapping adjacent items.
UseEdit
Bubble sort. The list was plotted in a Cartesian coordinate system, with each point (x, y) indicating that the value y is stored at index x. Then the list would be sorted by bubble sort according to every pixel's value. Note that the largest end gets sorted first, with smaller elements taking longer to move to their correct positions.
Although bubble sort is one of the simplest sorting algorithms to understand and implement, its O(n2) complexity means that its efficiency decreases dramatically on lists of more than a small number of elements. Even among simple O(n2) sorting algorithms, algorithms like insertion sort are usually considerably more efficient.
Due to its simplicity, bubble sort is often used to introduce the concept of an algorithm, or a sorting algorithm, to introductory computer science students. However, some researchers such as Owen Astrachan have gone to great lengths to disparage bubble sort and its continued popularity in computer science education, recommending that it no longer even be taught.[4]
The Jargon File, which famously calls bogosort "the archetypical [sic] perversely awful algorithm", also calls bubble sort "the generic bad algorithm".[5] Donald Knuth, in The Art of Computer Programming, concluded that "the bubble sort seems to have nothing to recommend it, except a catchy name and the fact that it leads to some interesting theoretical problems", some of which he then discusses.[6]
Bubble sort is asymptotically equivalent in running time to insertion sort in the worst case, but the two algorithms differ greatly in the number of swaps necessary. Experimental results such as those of Astrachan have also shown that insertion sort performs considerably better even on random lists. For these reasons many modern algorithm textbooks avoid using the bubble sort algorithm in favor of insertion sort.
Bubble sort also interacts poorly with modern CPU hardware. It produces at least twice as many writes as insertion sort, twice as many cache misses, and asymptotically more branch mispredictions.[citation needed] Experiments by Astrachan sorting strings in Java show bubble sort to be roughly one-fifth as fast as an insertion sort and 70% as fast as a selection sort.[4]
In computer graphics bubble sort is popular for its capability to detect a very small error (like swap of just two elements) in almost-sorted arrays and fix it with just linear complexity (2n). For example, it is used in a polygon filling algorithm, where bounding lines are sorted by their x coordinate at a specific scan line (a line parallel to the x axis) and with incrementing y their order changes (two elements are swapped) only at intersections of two lines. Bubble sort is a stable sort algorithm, like insertion sort.
VariationsEdit
Odd–even sort is a parallel version of bubble sort, for message passing systems.
Passes can be from right to left, rather than left to right. This is more efficient for lists with unsorted items added to the end.
Cocktail shaker sort alternates leftwards and rightwards passes.
Debate over nameEdit
Bubble sort has been occasionally referred to as a "sinking sort".[7]
For example, Donald Knuth describes the insertion of values at or towards their desired location as letting "[the value] settle to its proper level", and that "this method of sorting has sometimes been called the sifting or sinking technique.[8]
This debate is perpetuated by the ease with which one may consider this algorithm from two different but equally valid perspectives:
The larger values might be regarded as heavier and therefore be seen to progressively sink to the bottom of the list
The smaller values might be regarded as lighter and therefore be seen to progressively bubble up to the top of the list.
In 2007, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt asked then-presidential candidate Barack Obama during an interview about the best way to sort one million integers; Obama paused for a moment and replied: "I think the bubble sort would be the wrong way to go."[9][10]

Proposal Synopsis: Manumission, a performance by Igor Josifov, executed in computer-simulated space, can be regarded as a miniature video essay on the inexorable human alienation in the immenseness of this world. The action takes place in a single fixed scene: right from the beginning two identical masks/faces are shown in a frozen frontal fashion. This presentation associated with the body as a "form of identity" takes its time, putting us in a somewhat uneasy state of expectation. Soon, however, the masks/faces are set in motion, each gradually moving in different directions. Little by little the silence is disturbed by soft noises, which portend a face-to-face encounter, but the masks/faces never meet each other, as there is a dark line between them, dividing the scene into two sections. Movements are sped up in a somewhat mechanical manner, accompanied by stronger sounds of motion, which give the space of action an intimate quality. The "final act" acquires a grim intonation with the masks' dramatic removal. The act of transformation/metamorphosis is brought to a close by the expressive unmasking with an uncertain ending and outcome. The central motif is the act of transformation and liberation of the human "captive mind" and soul.


I think the most important thing a woman can have � next to talent, of course � is her hairdresser (Joan Crawford).
as it is now a promi�nent fashion trend for all ladies. If your hair has not been stretched-out by chemicals (relaxer), then it can be classified as a natural hair.
Since its fashionable prominence, a lot of people have done well styling it up, while some others have possibly run out of ideas on how to jazz-up the look. Keep calm! That's why I'm here to always nudge you in the right fashionably accept�ed way of doing things. Whether you want to fix, change the colour of your hair, or wear it unfixed, there's always a more presentable way of doing it.
This fashion trend is a convenient and better choice to go with this season, especially due to the (mostly) hot weather. So, if you're already a natural-hair-carrier or you're transitioning, here are some up-to-date ways to stand out with it as far as styling is concerned. Till next week, stay styled up!


Celebrate the go-getters. At TDS this is called the "President's Club." They're announced in front of the whole sales group with walk-up music, fanfare, a special cocktail reception, and a trip to a luxurious resort (this year they're headed to Costa Rica). Perhaps you don't have the margin to spend on all of this. That's alright. Just pick one or two of these things and make it happen. These folks deserve to be recognized by their leaders AND peers.
Ask your winners how it's done. This is part of honoring your top performers for the experts they are. Encourage them to share with the rest of the group their methods for staying motivated and reaching their level of success. Watch the video below to see how we executed this with a few of our President's Club Winners from this year!

View From Section U ▲ FTT 2015-16 Hockey East Preseason Poll
Usually I reveal my preseason Hockey East poll much closer to the beginning of the season when the previews are really ramping up. However, since the polls are due to the Hockey East Broadcasters & Writers Association in the next few days I sat down and thought it through a littler earlier than usual. So here we go.
2015-16 Hockey East Preseason Poll
1. Boston College Eagles
2. Lowell River Hawks
3. Boston University Terriers
4. Northeastern Huskies
5. Providence Friars
6. Vermont Catamounts
7. UConn Huskies
8. Notre Dame Fighting Irish
9. New Hampshire Wildcats
10. Merrimack Warriors
11. Maine Black Bears
12. Massachusetts Minutemen
2015-16 Hockey East Preseason Team
F – Kevin Roy – Northeastern
F – Mario Lucia – Notre Dame
F – Tyler Kelleher – New Hampshire
D – Matt Grzelyck – Boston University
D – Dylan Zink – Lowell
G – Thatcher Demko – Boston College
First off, I will be doing an in-depth Hockey East preview in a couple weeks running through each team as well as my in-depth, "grab a six pack because this will take a while" Massachusetts Hockey preview just before the season. But yes, I picked UMass to finish last. Why? Well it's not because I don't think the team doesn't have skill.
Dennis Kravchenko may end up being one of the stars of the league this season. And, as I mentioned in last night's post, I'm very impressed by this freshman class. Especially on defense, where the team desperately needed help. But there are so many questions surrounding this team. With just seven upperclassmen, is the team too young to be expected to compete this year? How long will it take the nearly totally retooled defense to adjust to college play? Can the team replace Frank Vatrano's 18 goals or will scoring slump to pre-Vatrano levels again? Is Nic Renyard the real deal, giving UMass the foundation in goal they've needed for years? Can Shane Walsh repeat his second half heroics of last season?
The final question is can Coach John Micheletto coach this team to success? This year's team has talent. But last year's did too. Mick had a team comprised of nearly all of players he recruited, including Vatrano and Brandon Montour, two of the most skilled players to wear the maroon in quite a while. Yet, they still finished last. At the beginning of his UMass career Mick had players like Conor Sheary, Mike Pereira, and Branden Gracel, all players whose point totals are among the all-time greats at the school. He couldn't find success with them either. If Mick can get the most out of these players and lead the young guys through the tumultuous learning curve that comes with playing in the best conference in college hockey then the team could surprise everyone next year. Including myself. But until that actually happens, I have to assume that this season will end much like the prior ones. I hope I am thoroughly wrong.
17 days 'til Dalhousie! So let's take a look at #17 for the Minutemen. Last year that was Brennan Baxandall. But with him taking #18 this year the #17 will be worn by incoming freshman Kurt Keats. Keats will be one of the freshmen looked upon to pick up some of the scoring load after the losses during the offseason. Keats, a center, played for the Powell River Kings of the BCHL the past two seasons. Last year in the regular season he had 31 goals and 34 assists in 52 games. Those totals were good enough for 9th in the league in goals and 11th in points. In the playoffs he had 4 goals and 6 assists in 10 games, including grabbing 7 points in a seven games second round series.
His play has been good enough that he has represented Team Canada West in the World Junior A Challenge in each of the last three years. Part of a large, talented incoming class. Keats is one of the players that I'm most looking forward to seeing play in person. Undersized (5'8", 170lbs), Keats is said to play bigger than his frame, unafraid to go into corners to get the puck or try to establish position in the slot. Those type of players can and do excel in Hockey East. His top line skating and speed shouldn't hurt either. With the talented defensemen, Renyard, and AJHL leading scorer Austin Plevy all coming in, Keats may be a recruit that has flown a little bit under the radar. But he's definitely a freshman to keep a close eye on this season as he could potentially play a big role for the Minutemen.

It's always nice when I have multiple links and stories to pass along with each nightly post. That means hockey isn't too far away.
The Collegian had a good feature on Frank Vatrano on the eve of Bruins training camp.
Conor Sheary was a point of focus in this preview of Penguins training camp by The Hockey Writers.
In addition to those two, other Minutemen participating in training camps are Jon Quick (Kings), Justin Braun (Sharks), Matt Irwin (Bruins), Mike Kostka (Ottawa), Joel Hanley (Canadiens), Conor Allen (Predators), Brndon Montour (Ducks), and Oleg Yevenko (Blue Jackets).
The weekly UMass Sports Insider show will be found on NESN this coming season.
America Sports Network will be producing (and distributing?) a number of Hockey East games this season, including UMass' 11/15 visit to Vermont. Note, if that link is accurate the 5pm start time is a review from the 1pm published earlier (more pregame time at Farmhouse Tap & Grill, right??)
The Mullins Center will be seeing some hockey this weekend as it will be hosting a junior tournament, which means the coaching staff won't have to go far to do some scouting.

Q: Nginx connection refused while connecting to Node.js upstream inside a Docker container I have the following setup:
Docker container which has supervisord as the entry point,
supervisord runs a Node.js process and Nginx proxy.
the Nginx port is exposed outside.
on the host machine, another Nginx is used for SSL termination and vhost routing / load balancing, its used as a proxy for the Docker containers.
I'm experiencing some strange issues, where sometimes the Nginx server inside the Docker containers is reporting errors with connecting to the upstream Node.js servers. seems like the HTTP requests are 200 so maybe it auto retries even if there's only one upstream?!
also, no sign of errors or crashes in the Node.js process stdout/stderr..
This are the errors that I see:
2014/07/31 12:48:54 [error] 15#0: *10 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: 172.17.42.1, server: f074d2f4389f, request: "GET /users/me HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://[::1]:3000/users/me", host: "xxx.xxx.com", referrer: "https://xxx.xxx.com/"

what can be the problem?
This is the supervisord config files:
[supervisord]

"Look out Polaris! Cross-state nemesis Arctic Cat has set its engineering cross hairs directly on its arch rival's hugely successful RZR XP 900 with the release of the all-new Wildcat — a pure-sport off-road side-by-side that revives the name of departed muscle sled. The Wildcat has a powerful engine, trophy truck-style suspension, racer-friendly ergonomics and an "exoskeleton chassis" that's designed to handle the toughest terrain on the planet. Digging into the specifics, Arctic Cat's new 2012 Wildcat 1000i H.O. is powered by the same 951cc V-Twin that serves duty atop the company's ATV lineup. Lower and wider than its Prowler side-by-sides, the Wildcat has a radical 5-link rear suspension that has a whoop-crushing 18 inches of travel, while the front dual A-arms provide 17. The shocks are from Walker Evans, with compression adjustability, as well as a two-stage spring preload adjustment.

NRA's Top Lobbyist Chris Cox Resigns After Two Decades
Follows infighting and coup attempt among group's leadership…
Chris Cox/Photo by Gage Skidmore (CC)
(Neil Weinberg and Polly Mosendz, Bloomberg News) The National Rifle Association's embattled top lobbyist has resigned after being accused of seeking to overthrown the group's leader, a person familiar with the matter said.
Chris Cox, the NRA's No. 2 official and its liaison to elected officials, has served in the role since 2002.
He oversaw the $33 million budget of the NRA's Institute for Legislative Action and co-chairs President Donald Trump's Second Amendment Coalition with the president's son Donald Trump Jr.
The NRA filed an explosive lawsuit last week saying that Cox had betrayed the group's longtime leader, Wayne LaPierre, by joining NRA President Oliver North in a coup attempt in April.
That followed accusations of lavish spending against LaPierre.
It's not clear who inside the NRA could take Cox's place, and recruiting an outsider could be especially difficult because of the financial turmoil and political bloodletting roiling the group, insiders say.

Eric is a perfectly ordinary boy. Perfectly ordinary that is, until the night when, in fifteen seconds flat, he turns into a dog! Eric and his best friend are determined to sniff out the truth - what makes an ordinary boy go 'woof'?
Gr 4-6 One morning, for no apparent reason, ten-year-old Eric Banks turns into a Norfolk terrier. This causes no end of problems for Eric, as his parents shoo him out of the house and he must fend for himself on the streets. Fortunately, the change is only temporary; he soon turns back into a boy, but he never knows when or where he will change into a dog again. Naturally, the changes occur at the most inconvenient times, and only Eric's best chum, Roy, knows what is going on. Skeptical at first, Roy soon joins Eric in trying to puzzle out what is causing the mysterious transformations. The problem is that the solution is never givenan unfair ending that is sure to annoy readers who have been hooked by the curious premise. This British import is told in an understated manner with delightfully quiet, tongue-in-cheek humor, particularly when Eric begins to think and act like a dog, all the while analyzing his reactions in a thoroughly boy-like way. A bit slow in spots, but the book can provide a nice source for those seeking longeralbeit frustratingread-aloud material. Kathleen Brachmann, Highland Park Public Lib . , Ill.

Description: You won't find Durosoir in any English-language musical encyclopedias. Prior to World War I, he was a successful and well-known violinist who performed all over Europe, introducing new French works elsewhere and new European works in France. But serving in the French Army for 55 months during and after World War I essentially broke his spirit and he was unable to continue his performing career afterwards. Moving to the desolate Landes in southwestern France (where the Germans commandeered his home during the Second World War), he began composing and did so for the rest of his life although, apparently intentionally, he published nothing. These violin/piano works date from the 1920 Aquarelles to the 1950 Chant élégiaque (in memory of Ginette Neveu). Durosoir had studied counterpoint with Tournemire and, in early 1918, struck up a friendship with Sgt. André Caplet, who encouraged his compositional activities until Caplet's own early death in 1925. Sometimes a hint of the ecstatic, visionary quality of Szymanowski (via Debussy, presumably) brightens up the 1921 sonata and the 1927 Oisillon bleu (perhaps a hint of very early Messiaen here too) but, generally speaking, Durosoir's voice is in the conservative line of Fauré. Although the music shows no overt signs of the crushing emotional effect the war had on ending his performing career, it's also fair to say that there is often a shadow over this beautiful, often evocative music. This 2006 release was not previously offered in the U.S. Geneviève Laurenceau (violin), Lorène de Ratuld (piano).

It seems like everyone is buying a new HDTV this year. The conversation around the water cooler is full of tech buzzwords. When the HDTV standard in the US was originated by the ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Committee), they defined eighteen different standards, but not all of the standards are in common use.
The standards you should be familiar with for HDTV (High Definition TV) are 720p, 1080i, and more recently 1080p. The number in the format (for example, "720") are the vertical lines of screen resolution, and the letter in the format (for example, "p") represents the display technique. The letter "p" stands for "progressive" scan and the letter "i" stands for "interlaced".
HDTV (720p, 1080i, and 1080p) has a widescreen aspect ratio of 16:9 (width:height). EDTV (Enhanced Definition) is a standard definition television (SDTV, the format before HDTV), but with some software "interpolation." EDTV offers a better picture than SDTV, but not as sharp as HDTV. EDTV uses progressive scan. EDTV sometimes has a 16:9 (widescreen) aspect ratio.
For reference, standard definition television (SDTV, the format before HDTV) has 480 lines of vertical resolution and has an aspect ratio of 4:3. The SDTV signal in the US has historically been an interlaced signal. This means that your TV draws each frame in two passes: one pass for the even horizontal lines and a second pass for the odd lines. The specification is a maximum resolution for the technology, but signal sources are often less than the maximum. For example, a VHS tape has approximately 240 lines of vertical resolution, an over-the-air SDTV broadcast has approximately 330 lines of vertical resolution, and an SDTV DVD has approximately 480 lines of vertical resolution.
The televisions in Europe and Japan have been (and are) of progressive format. A progressive format makes a single pass for all lines. Progressive images look a bit smoother than an interlaced image, especially when there is a lot of movement on the screen, such as sports.
Adding to the confusion, BluRay DVDs do, and later this year satellite TV companies will, broadcast in 1080p. This standard has both the highest number of lines of vertical resolution and the preferred progressive format. Dish Network will begin 1080p satellite transmission in August 2008 with 150 HDTV channels, and DirecTV will begin satellite and Internet transmission in late 2008 with approximately 130 channels of HDTV programming. Satellite companies compress their signal using MPEG-4 techniques, which reduces the bandwidth required for transmission. Currently, the only source material for 1080p is movies, especially movies originally made for IMAX. None of the major networks (ABC, ESPN, etc.) have yet announced 1080p support. Also, Sony PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 have 1080p games.
HDTV video format: 720p, 1080i and 1080p, higher number is better, right? While 1080i is technically a higher resolution, it's not the obvious choice. 1080i has 1080 vertical lines of resolution and 1920 horizontal lines of resolution. 720p has 720 lines of vertical resolution and it has 1280 lines of horizontal resolution. But the 720p system is progressively scanned. This compensates for the lower level of resolution. The 1080p signal is the best of both worlds, more picture information with a progressive format.
If your received signal, for example to a satellite receiver, is mostly standard definition, a 1080p TV will not significantly improve your picture compared to a 720p TV. Image quality is fundamentally limited by the source signal (480 lines of vertical resolution). Similarly, if your signal has a 720 source, then the 1080 TV will not improve your picture. All high definition sports broadcasts from Fox, ESPN and ABC are broadcast in 720p.
Some networks have opted for the 1080i format because it provides more picture information, while ABC, Fox, ESPN and National Geographic Channel have chosen the smoother 720p images. HDTV programming on CBS, NBC and other networks is broadcast in 1080i. Newer 1080i or 1080p HDTVs will likely make this type of programming a bit sharper than it would appear on a 720p TV. This becomes more important because as the TV screen gets larger, the visible difference in detail between 720p and 1080i and 1080p displays becomes more apparent. Because of this, most HDTVs larger than 50 inches are 1080p or 1080i.
1080p HDTV System Capabilities:
A 1080p HDTV displays all input signals at 1080p, because this is the unit's normal resolution. If your system is less than 1080i or 1080p, then a special-purpose chip in your HDTV scales the signal. It will interpolate, as EDTV does with an SDTV signal. If the signal is 1080i, the system will combine the odd and even interlaced frames and display the full signal as 1080p. The resulting performance should be similar to a true 1080p video source.
high definition cable television:
More than 100 million US homes can receive HDTV from their cable system, and all of the top 100 cable markets in the country have HDTV programming available. Unfortunately, most cable providers offer only a few of the 50+ HDTV networks available.
Satellite HDTV:
While the selection of local HDTV channels is generally better on cable than satellite, the major satellite companies offer more national HDTV channels than almost all cable providers. Both DirecTV and Dish Network have promised to offer more than 130 HDTV channels by the end of the year. "Satellite will be limited not so much by how many channels it can carry as by how many it can get," Bob Scherman, Satellite Business News.
By 2010, 60% of US homes will use a satellite signal, up from 15% in 2002.
Resume:
Screen resolution for HDTV has become comparable to the microprocessor clock speed for personal computers. Although clock speed is not necessarily a perfect indication of overall system performance, it is often regarded as such by the consumer.
Interestingly, when a group of experts, the SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers), recently ranked the importance of resolution, it ranked fourth. SMPTE ranked contrast ratio, color saturation, color temperature, and gray scale above resolution in importance. The Imaging Science Foundation reached a similar conclusion. However, most HDTV manufacturers combine quality features like improved contrast ratio with higher screen resolutions in their top-of-the-line HDTVs. So if you buy a set with the best screen resolution, you'll most likely receive the best lineup from the manufacturer for other important screen criteria.
Prices have fallen significantly in the last two years, but it appears that the rate of price reduction has slowed significantly recently. "TV shoppers visiting mass retailers may be more concerned with getting a low price and may not seek expert advice. However, TV shoppers should keep in mind that the lower prices they find in The mass stores are mainly due to the fact that these stores tend to carry second-tier brand TVs, rather than major brands like Sony or Panasonic.When you compare the price of a specific TV model at each type of retailer, the prices are surprisingly similar," said Larry Wu of JD Power.
And as a final note, be sure to take into account the audio side of your system. George Lucas (Star Wars) once said that audio is half the experience of watching a movie. It is also true for a good game of football or basketball.

Slaight Music Unsung Hero Award winner Donnie Campbell
Mar 13, 2020 by Kerry Doole Comments
East Coast musician and radio host Donnie Campbell has been named the recipient of the Slaight Music Unsung Hero Award for the 2020 Canadian Folk Music Awards. This annual legacy category award recognizes the exceptional contribution of an individual, group, or organization to any aspect of the Canadian Folk music scene. The award was to be presented to Campbell on April 3 in Charlottetown, during the planned CFMAs weekend (April 3-4), but the event has just been cancelled, given Coronavirus fears.
A CFMA press release describes Campbell as "a Canadian icon in every sense of the word. He has made major contributions as a performer, promoter and historian of Canadian Folk and Celtic music, and continues to capture the hearts of listeners worldwide with his radio show Celtic Serenade, now in its 46th year. The show features Celtic Music, homegrown Cape Breton and Atlantic Canadian artists, Folk and Bluegrass. More info here
– Hit pop duo Tegan & Sara have announced a return to the road following a sold-out headline tour last year. The 40-date North American run launches at Knitting Factory Concert House in Spokane on May 18 and wraps up on Sept. 2 at Tabernacle in Atlanta. The sked includes shows at Toronto's Rebel (Aug. 13) and Montreal's MTELUS (Aug. 14). The tour supports Tegan & Sara's latest release, Hey I'm Just Like You. Tix on sale today here
– On Wed night, historic Toronto watering hole The Wheatsheaf threw an invite-only opening party to show off its impressive renovation. The good news is that the refit is stressing live music (what a concept!). As the room's music booker/impresario Shawn Creamer (Dakota Tavern, Hayloft Dancehall) stated at the event, "Toronto's oldest bar is now the city's newest music venue." It hasn't received the hype $30M bought the El Mocambo, but this is a notable venture. Creamer told FYI that there'll be local music there every weekend, with the occasional big-ticket act mid-week. He has great taste and connections, so this is exciting stuff. Plus the chicken wings are still yummy. Samantha Martin and Delta Sugar were an excellent choice of band for the opening soiree. Those spied included Martin fans Rob Bowman and Rick Fenton, plus Shauna de Cartier (Six Shooter), Jude Coombe (Starfish), Yvonne Matsell and Karen Bliss.
– Vancouver duo The Pack AD has announced it is saying goodbye to full cross-country touring and is gearing up to release a final album for the foreseeable future. It was fun while it lasted is due on April 17. Here's the first single, Give Up.
– The TD Toronto Jazz Festival has announced some major names for its upcoming edition, slated to run June 18-28. That list includes Smokey Robinson, David Crosby, Herbie Hancock, Gregory Porter, Ana Moura, Femi Kuti, The Roots, Trombone Shorty, John Scofield & Dave Holland Duo, and Shabaka & The Ancestors. Herbie Hancock hosts anm80th birthday celebration in early September. Tickets on sale now at torontojazz.com. In a press release, the fest stresses that "we will continue to monitor the situation surrounding COVID-19 on an on-going basis."
– Chris Birkett, the British-born award-winning producer, arranger, and composer is now officially a Canadian citizen. His collaborations with A-list artists like Sinead O'Connor, Alison Moyet, Talking Heads, The Pogues, Bob Geldof, Quincy Jones, Thomas Dolby, Buffy Sainte-Marie, and Steve Earle have sold over 100 million records and earned a Grammy, four Junos, the Polaris Music Prize and three international AMPEX Golden Reel Awards for excellence in the music business. He co-produced Buffy Sainte-Marie's Polaris-winning Fire In The Blood album. Birkett is also a singer/songwriter whose last solo record, 11:11, was released in Nov. 2019. In a press release, Birkett states that "living in Toronto, the most important city for music in Canada, I can tour the musical world without leaving. It's all here, and I am grateful and humbled by this country welcoming me."
– The March 7 reunion fundraiser concert by Chalk Circle at Lee's Palace in Toronto was a major success, netting $20K for the Rethink Breast Cancer organization. The show was entitled "Be Tracy's Ally" in honour of Tracy Sheridan, partner to Brad Hopkins, Chalk Circle's bass player. Sheridan lives with metastatic breast cancer. Read more here

Big-hearted creativity and life-bettering social services collide for adaptive reuse scheme on Oahu.
June 17, 2015, 3:55 p.m.
Honolulu, squeaky-clean tropical tourist trap and ungodly expensive place to live, has a homelessness problem. Or, more accurately, Honolulu has a problem with homelessness.
Over the past several years, the Hawaiian metropolis has seen a dramatic rise — as much as 32 percent, according to the New York Times — in the number of people living on city streets. Some are transient "snowbirds" from the rainy Pacific Northwest; some are natives struggling with the city's exorbitant cost of living; some simply have no where else to go.
Regardless of the circumstances that have put these individuals on the street, the reaction of Honolulu officials to their increased presence has been, well, largely combative.
Eschewing a more benevolent approach that's been embraced by other cities, Honolulu has all but declared all-out war on the homeless with highly controversial campaigns — crackdowns, really — that aim to sweep the city's homeless population under the proverbial rug (or completely off the island of Oahu) instead of help individuals living on the street transition into more secure living situations. In a city when enforcement outweighs housing, there will be no sitting, standing, lying down or loitering for Honolulu's homeless, particularly those who have gravitated toward tourist-heavy Waikiki and Chinatown. There will be no existing.
While Honolulu officials are very much within their rights to be concerned about the economic impact that a surging homeless population can have on their island paradise's well-oiled tourism machine, the approach to improving the situation has been largely devoid of even the slightest trace of compassion.
A new initiative from Honolulu-based architecture firm Group 70 International, however, is overflowing with compassion — with a wee bit of irony thrown in for good measure. Working with Jun Yang, executive director of the Honolulu Office of Housing, Group 70 International's Ma Ry Kim is heading up the effort to transform a quintet of decommissioned city buses, previously used to shuttle tourists around town, into a fleet of roving shelters where those living on the streets can turn to when in need of a hot shower, a decent meal or, most importantly, a safe place to hunker down for the night.
Just a few years ago, city buses — specifically city bus stops — and Honolulu's homeless population weren't exactly simpatico. In 2011, an experimental effort to dissuade homeless people from camping out at bus stops backfired when it was discovered that new "leaning" benches installed to replace conventional bus stop benches repelled everyone, particularly elderly bus patrons.
While Honolulu's homeless and bus shelters are still on shaky terms, in the near future the buses themselves could be considered places of refuge, sanctuary in their post-service afterlives.
Kim goes on to explain that instead of each bus being converted into a self-contained, RV-esque shelter-on-wheels, each will serve a specific purpose. "We're fitting some out to be bathrooms and showers, we're fitting some out to be sleeping areas, and the design completely folds away like a little Japanese tatami mat."
Materials for the buses-turned-shelters will be largely donated. At this point, some important logistics still need to be ironed out including who exactly will operate the fleet. It's also unclear where the buses will be deployed.
Kim expects that two of the buses will be fully converted and ready to hit the streets this summer while the entire fleet of five will be in operation by the year's end.
Along with a slew of other service-based initiatives that aim to help, not stigmatize, the retired bus-turned-shelter scheme is improving Honolulu's once generally awful approach to dealing with homelessness one life-bettering step at a time.


Today the newly-elected Bishop Teodosije of Raska-Prizren was formally enthroned. The Divine Liturgy was served by His Holiness Irinej, Serbian Patriarch the newly-reconstructed St George's Cathedral church with the concelebration of 14 bishops of the SOC and more that 70 priests from many dioceses. Many Bishops of the SOC and other local Churches sent their postcards regarding this act which represents for sure one of the most important events in the new history of Kosovo and Metohija.
Among priests there were representatives of Greek Orthodox Church with monks from Mount Athos as well as the representatives of the Russian Orthodox Church. A great number of monks from many monasteries of the SOC also participated in this solemn act along with more that 1500 believers mostly from Kosovo and Metohija who had come to welcome their new Bishop. The Divine Liturgy was chanted by the church choir from Nis together with the choir of theologians of the Prizren Seminary Saints Cyril and Methodius temporary transferred to Nis.
Addressing Bishop Teodosije and congregation, the Patriarch reminded of the suffering experienced by Prizren, the SOC and Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija.
"This is a great day, the day of the enthronement of a bishop who should help the SOC pursue its history and life in Kosovo and Metohija, and instill history with a new hope, a new grace" Patriarch Irinej said.
He pointed out that the Church has chosen a man in whom it has complete confidence, hope and whom it believes will be able to live up to the tasks of the difficult and dreadful time we and the Kosovo Serbs live in.
In his speech, Bishop Teodosije of Raska-Prizren, who had previously served as the head of the Visoki Decani Monastery, noted that the 19 years he has spent in Kosovo have been his best school of life (TRANSCRIPT OF BISHOP TEODOSIJE'S HOMILY).
Among officials who attended the enthronement ceremony and the reception in the new building of the Diocese in Prizren there were vice president of the Serbian government and Minister of Interior Ivica Dacic, Minister for Kosovo and Metohija Goran Bogdanovic, Minister of Faith Bogoljub Sijakovic, as well as an envoy of the President of Serbia Mladjan Djordjevic. There were also representatives of Kosovo Serbs politicians from all parts of the Province.
The ceremony was also attended by international representatives of KFOR, UNMIK, EULEX and European offices in Pristina, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe and the Council of Europe. There were also present Roman Catholic Bishop of Kosovo Dodë Gjergji with few his associates as well as representatives of the Muslim community in Kosovo and the Evangelist Church.
Today ceremony in Prizren began at 8.30 with a solemn entrance of Bishops led by His Holiness Irinej, Serbian Patriarch in the crowded Cathedral church of St. George the Great Martyr. After the Divine Liturgy and solemn enthronement of the new Bishop of Raska-Prizren Patriarch Irinej and Metropolitan Amfilohije was greeting once again the faithful people from the balcony of the new Diocesan court, while the new-enthroned Bishop Teodosije was giving his blessing of icons of St. George to the believers in the church, and Bishop Atanasije was handing out sweets to children in the courtyard of the Diocesan court. Afterwards in the Diocesan court a coctail was prepared for all Bishops and all guests. Today's ceremony was peacefully and with dignity. The security was provided by the German KFOR, the EULEX police and the KPD.
Today's ethronement ceremony of Bishop Teodosije marked at the same time a return of the seat of Diocese of Raska-Prizren to the city of Prizren after 11 years. The Cathedral church of St. George and the Diocesan court were burnt in March pogrom in 2004. Thanks to the process of reconstruction which has been done by the Council of Europe, Bishop Teodosije, appointed by the Holy Assembly of Bishops of the SOC, to be responsible for the process of reconstruction managed along with the Commission for reconstruction to restore fully the complex of the Diocesan court with the Cathedral church and the Parish home in which these days parish priest Slobodan Djoric (22) has moved with his family. The return of the seat of the Diocese in Prizren and placing parish priest here should encourage fled Serbs from Prizren to come back and the significance of south part of Kosovo and Metohija, which has been neglected for several years.
After the end of the program in Prizren, Bishops, priests and one part of the believers went to the monastery of Visoki Dechani where Bishop Teodosije with the monastery brotherhood prepared a solemn lunch.
His Holiness IRINEJ, Serbian Patriarch, Metropolitan AMFILOHIJE of Montenegro and the Littoral, Bishop LAVRENTIJE of Sabac, Bishop IRINEJ of Backa, Bishop HRIZOSTOM of Bihac-Petrovac, Bishop JUSTIN of Timok, Bishop PAHOMIJE of Vranje, Bishop JOVAN of Sumadija, Bishop JOANIKIJE of Budimlje-Niksic, Bishop GRIGORIJE of Zahumlje-Herzegovina, Bishop MAKSIM of Western America, retired Bishop ATANASIJE of Zahumlje-Herzegovina, Vicar Bishop PORFIRIJE of Jegar, Bishop MARKO of Bregalnica (Archbishopric of Ohrid).

Missouri issues its first state report on hospital infections
Missouri Releases Report on Deadly Hospital Acquired Infections
Consumers Union Urges Hospitals to Follow Stricter Infection Control Procedures
JEFFERSON CITY, MO – The Missouri Department of Health released a report today disclosing the rate at which patients developed certain bloodstream infections in each of the state's hospitals. The report was issued in response to a state law passed in 2004 that requires public disclosure of hospital infections, a leading cause of death in the United States. Missouri is the third state in the US to publish a report on hospital-acquired infection rates. The report is available at: http://www.dhss.mo.gov/HAI
"For too long, patients have been kept in the dark about the growing rate of hospital infections," said Lisa McGiffert, Director of Consumers Union's Stop Hospital Infections Campaign (www.StopHospitalInfections.org). "This report will enable Missourians to see whether their local hospital is doing a good job keeping patients safe. We hope it will also spur hospitals to re-double their efforts to improve care and prevent infections."
Missouri's initial report focuses on central line-related bloodstream infections acquired by patients in the intensive care units (ICU) of the state's hospitals between July 1, 2005-March 31, 2006. A central line is an intravenous catheter or IV placed into a large vein. Forty eight percent of all patients in ICUs have central venous catheters and they are vulnerable to acquiring infections if proper infection control procedures are not followed.
The Institute for Healthcare Improvement estimates that nationally approximately 14,000 people die every year from central line-related bloodstream infections, but other research suggests that the number could be as high as 28,000. The incidence of central line-related bloodstream infections could be reduced greatly if hospitals followed the strict infection control protocols recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The CDC guidelines for reducing these infections involve cleaning hands between patients, using maximal barrier precautions (wearing mask, cap, sterile gown, gloves) while inserting an IV, cleaning the skin area where the IV is inserted with chlorhexidine soap, selecting the best site for insertion, and daily review to determine whether the IV is still necessary. A partnership between the CDC and the Pittsburgh Regional Healthcare Initiative resulted in a 68 percent reduction in such infections over a four year period among a group of hospitals in southwestern Pennsylvania that followed these procedures.
In addition to central line bloodstream infections, Missouri's patient infection disclosure law requires hospitals to report the rates for certain surgical site infections and ventilator-associated pneumonia. A surgical site infection rate report is expected in mid 2007. The law allows a state advisory committee to require disclosure of other categories of infections in future years. The statute requires hospitals to report their infection rates quarterly to the state, which will help keep information timely and enable the public to see whether their local hospital is making progress reducing infections.
"Missouri's initial hospital infection report is a good step forward that will help to focus attention on this very serious patient safety problem," said McGiffert. "Hospital infections shouldn't be accepted as an inevitable consequence of providing care to sick patients. Hospitals need to aim for zero infections if we're ever going to get this epidemic under control."
The CDC estimates that one in 20 patients — or approximately two million every year — develop various kinds of infections while being treated in the hospital. Of those, 90,000 patients die every year. Infections drive up healthcare costs because they can prolong hospital stays and result in additional surgeries and other costly treatments. The CDC has estimated that hospital infections add about $6 billion to the nation's healthcare bill.
Only 25 percent of all hospital infections are acquired in the ICU. Bloodstream infections of all kinds account for 15 percent of all hospital acquired infections.
Missouri is one of sixteen states around the country that have adopted such laws in recent years. Pennsylvania and Florida are the only other states that have produced reports on hospital infections so far. Infection reporting requirements have been adopted in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland, New York, New Hampshire, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and Vermont. California will only report on the rate that hospitals perform certain infection prevention practices.

First anniversary of the downing of Malaysia Airlines MH17 on 17 July 2014
Countries around the world, from Netherlands to Australia honor the victims of the crash
13:46, 17 July 2015
РБК-Украина
The memorial march near the Netherlands Embassy is held today in Kyiv. 20 Ukrainian MPs joined the memorial event. Ukrainian NGOs will gather today for one more memorial action. Verkhovna Rada started its day with a minute of silence to honor the victims of the catastrophe in Donbas.
"The Ukrainian people took this catastrophe as a personal tragedy," said Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in his Address on the anniversary. "Hardly anyone can feel for the families of the victims of MH17 flight more than Ukrainians," he said.
A public memorial service was held in Australia's capital Canberra Friday and a permanent memorial plaque was unveiled to commemorate the 38 Australians who died. Prime minister of Australia Tonny Abbott in his Commemorative Address said: "They deserved to be welcomed home not shot out of the sky in a war of aggression by one country against its smaller neighbor". "We salute the police, soldiers and forensic experts on the ground in Ukraine within range of Russian guns," stated Abbott.
The U.S. is to cooperate with the Netherlands in the investigation of the Malaysian Airlines MH 17 crash in eastern Ukraine, stated Victoria Nuland, US Assistant Secretary of State in her yesterdays' speech in Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.
Earlier this week, the Netherlands, Belgium, Australia, Malaysia, and Ukraine made a joint proposal to UN about an independent tribunal to try those responsible for crimes. Russian President Vladimir Putin criticized this move by saying the Kremlin does not support "the premature and counter-productive initiatives of several countries, including The Netherlands, on the establishment of an international tribunal."
Western governments believe the militants shot down the plane with a Russian-supplied BUK missile system, a version based on radio intercepts, photographic and video evidence, witness statements and satellite imagery. As expected, Russia denies involvement in the Ukrainian conflict, and believes that it was downed with a missile fired from a Ukrainian jet.
John Kerry, US Secretary of State, expressed his strong considerations that MH17 was shot down by a "surface-to-air missile fired from separatist-controlled territory in eastern Ukraine. A year later, we strongly reaffirm our commitment to a thorough and independent international investigation to identify the full facts of what happened that day and, most importantly, to see those responsible are held accountable".
U.S. State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf stated that Russia is immersed in its versions, refutations and complaints, "so now the story's changing on the Russian side. First they said it wasn't a Buk missile. Now suddenly they're saying it is, but it wasn't them. So I just think the credibility is not 100 percent here on that". She also added that America remains confident that no Ukrainian air defense systems were within range of the crash, and Ukrainian forces have not fired a single surface-to-air missile during the conflict.
The world community is still awaiting an official solution to the problem of who was responsible.

Repetitive strain injuries (RSIs) in Ontario were examined with respect to gender for the period 1986 to 1991, using data from Ontario Workers' Compensation Board systems. Technical issues surrounding analysis of workplace injuries and theoretical suggestions raised by the data are discussed. Analyses revealed that the risk of RSIs for women is greater than that for men. Furthermore, women receive compensation benefits because of RSIs for a longer period than do their male counterparts, which may indicate a longer-term effect of RSIs on women.

Aage Birch (* 23. September 1926 in Søllerød, Dänemark; † 13. Februar 2017 ebenda) war ein erfolgreicher dänischer Segler und Bootsbauer, der sein Land dreimal in der Drachen-Klasse bei Olympischen Spielen vertrat.

Aage Birch wuchs beim Furesee (dän.: Furesøen) auf und war als Kind Mitglied im Yachtclub Furesøen. Hier lernte er 1940 die Kiel-Bootsklasse Drachen kennen und blieb ihr sein seglerisches Leben lang treu. Der Drachen war von 1948 bis 1972 olympische Bootsklasse.

Teilnahmen an Olympischen Spielen
 1952 nahm Aage Birch zum ersten Mal an den Olympischen Spielen in Helsinki teil zusammen mit seinem Landsmann William Berntsen. Skipper und Steuermann war Ole Berntsen. Gemeinsam erreichten sie den fünften Gesamtplatz.

 1960 startete er als Skipper und Steuermann bei den Olympischen Spielen in Rom in der Drachen-Bootsklasse (Austragungsort: Neapel). Aage Birch erreichte gemeinsam mit seinen Vorschotern Paul Lindemark Jørgensen und Niels Markussen den sechsten Platz.

 1968 nahm Birch zum dritten Mal an den Olympischen Spielen im Segeln in der Drachen-Klasse vor Acapulco teil. Er gewann als Skipper gemeinsam mit seiner Besatzung Paul Lindemark Jørgensen und Niels Markussen die Silbermedaille.

Drachen Gold Cup
Aage Birch beherrschte souverän den prestigeträchtigen Drachen Gold Cup in der Zeit von 1963 bis 1972. Er stellte in dieser Periode den bislang ungeschlagenen Rekord von sieben Gold Cup Siegen auf.

Aktivitäten nach der sportlichen Karriere
Nach dem Ende seiner aktiven Segelkarriere war Aage Birch weiter im Sport engagiert. Er erkannte, dass die Segler finanziell besser unterstützt werden müssten. Zusammen mit Paul Lindemark gründete er eine Initiative, die Regattasegler förderte, indem von jeder Startgebühr eines Seglers zu einer Regatta fünf Kronen einbehalten wurden und in die Elite-Segler-Förderung investiert wurden. Das Geld war gut angelegt, denn Dänemark gewann die Gold-Medaille im Soling 1976 und  1980 durch Poul Høj Jensen und die  Silber-Medaille 1980 im Tornado durch Peter Due.

Er übernahm auch als Coach die Leitung der dänischen Segel-Nationalmannschaft zu den Olympischen Segelwettbewerben 1980 und 1984. Insbesondere hatte er eine ungewöhnliche Begabung, die Einstellungen und den Trimm der Gegner zu analysieren und daraus einen Vorteil für seine Mannschaft zu generieren.

Diese analytischen Fähigkeiten bewahrte er sich lebenslang. Deshalb schickte ihn die Dansk Sejlunion im Alter von 90 Jahren zu den Olympischen Spielen 2016 in Rio de Janeiro mit dem Auftrag, die Tricks der souveränen neuseeländischen Goldmedaillengewinner im 49er Peter Burling und Blair Tuke für die dänische Mannschaft abzuschauen.

Aage Birch war in seinem zivilen Leben Bootsbauer mit dem Segelsport als Dreh- und Angelpunkt. Er war lebenslang eng mit Paul Elvstrøm befreundet, die beide Mitglied im Hellerup Sejlklub in Gentofte, einem Vorort von Kopenhagen waren.

Birch lebte lange Jahre in England und in der Schweiz, kehrte dann aber nach Dänemark zurück und wohnte während seiner letzten Lebensjahre in Nordsjælland.

I'm sure that most folks have heard the expression, "I was just joshing you". Did you know that old chestnut has numismatic origins? It came from a guy named Josh Tatum. The story goes like this.
In 1883, the design of the nickel was changed from the Shield design to the Liberty. The first design had the familiar obverse, but the first reverse was revolutionary, by coin standards. Nowhere on the coin, obverse or reverse, did the denomination appear. The Shield nickels had 5 Cents spelled out clearly on the reverse, but the Liberty nickels didn't. Instead, the reverse had a large Roman numeral V to denote 5, but it didn't say V cents. Today we call them 1883 no cents nickels. This became popular amongst the more unsavory people of the time, namely con artists. The physical size of a nickel and a $5 gold coin is very similar. The nickel is thicker, and has a plain edge. The $5 has a reeded edge. So these hoaxters took the new nickels with a large Roman V on the reverse, filed the reeding on the edge, had them gold plated, and started passing them as $5 gold coins.
A number of people were prosecuted for this activity. A prominent dentist in Philadelphia had increased the value of a few nickels into $27,000. The problem with putting these folks away was that the only law they had violated was that they had committed fraud. There was no Federal law otherwise to convict them on. The Congress corrected that error quickly, and the nickel design was changed to include the word Cents.
Josh Tatum (remember him? Just Joshin?) was one of the aforementioned con men. He filed the edge of some of those new nickels, had them gold plated, and passed them as $5. He was caught, arrested and tried for fraud. It was hard to find witnesses against him because not many people wanted to admit that they were duped, but enough came forward to testify in court. When the witnesses were asked, none could say that Mr. Tatum had ever bought anything that cost more than 5 cents, and he had never asked for any change. He simply bought an item for 5 cents, paid with what appeared to be a $5 gold coin, and accepted the change of $4.95. What I haven't told you about Mr. Tatum is that he was a deaf-mute, and could not ask for any change, or tell the vendor that he had made a mistake. He was exonerated for the most part. One story says he walked out of court a free man. Another report says he spent 2 weeks in jail, presumably for an unrelated charge.
Is this a true story? I could be Joshin' you.

Fox 29 reports:
…a 39-year-old single mom from Ogden who died four days after her second dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Her family, who is now waiting on an autopsy, held a celebration of life for her this past weekend.
Kassidi Kurill by all accounts was healthy, happy and "had more energy" than just about anyone else around her. Her family told 2News she had no known health problems or pre-existing conditions.
Kassidi Kurill's Story
I didn't really cry when my dad died, I cry a lot for her.
Alfred Hawley, a retired Hill Air Force Base fighter pilot, is a military man who has known risk and loss his entire life. He's taken it all in stride, until now.
An hour before his daughter's celebration of life this past Saturday, he sat down to talk about his baby girl, the one who always wore makeup to cover up the freckles he loved so much.
With tears in his eyes, Alfred said "I'm at a state in my life where I'm ok with that (emotion)" as he wiped a tear from his cheek; not the first and not the last.
"She was the one who promised to take care of me" he said.
The death of his youngest daughter came out of nowhere in a year where this family has already suffered unimaginable grief with three funerals before Kassidi in the past 370 days.
Four days after Kassidi's second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, she was gone. Dead before most of her family could say their goodbyes.
"She came in early and said her heart was racing and she felt like she need to get to the emergency room." Alfred woke up that Thursday morning to his daughter asking for help.
heidi photo 10.jpg
Kassidi and her 9-year-old daughter Emilia lived with her parents. They'd been one family under the same roof since Emilia was born. Mom and Dad, grandma and grandpa always close by when they were needed.
Alfred, now retired, spent a lot of time with his girls. Kassidi, he says, "got sick right away, soreness at the shot location then started getting sick then started complaining that she was drinking lots of fluids but couldn't pee and then felt a little better the next day."
It was her second shot; the first came with a sore arm but no real side effects or issues. Kassidi was the first in the family to get the vaccine. She was a surgical tech for several local plastic surgeons, and the vaccine was a part of the job. She stepped up to get the shot, her family says, without hesitation.
She was absolutely fine with getting it, in fact she told all of us- it's fine you guys should all get it.
Kassidi's older sister Kristin, often confused as her twin, lives in Arizona. The distance didn't matter much, they visited often and talked on the phone every day.
The day her sister got the second COVID-19 shot was a normal one from their conversations throughout the day. "They had gone shopping, she was fine then started feeling not so great that evening."

Kristin said they were not worried about Kassidi because "everyone from her work had flu like symptoms -so we thought that was normal." The kind of thing you had to sweat out for a couple days.
Kassidi got the second shot on Monday, Feb. 1. While she was in bed all day Tuesday and Wednesday, it wasn't until Thursday morning she knew something was wrong. She woke up early, got ready and asked her dad to driver her to the local ER, where they arrived by 7 a.m.
As soon as they walked in the door, Kassidi was throwing up. Minutes later, questions were raised about what was making her so sick.

Her dad recalls doctors asking question after question, "Is there any explanation?"
He answered saying, "She just had the shot, they did a blood test and immediately came back and said she was very-very sick, and her liver was not functioning."
Kristin, still in Arizona, knew her sister had gone to the hospital but the speed of what was happening was "so unexpected." She was thinking Kassidi would get an IV with fluids and be back home in an hour.
Alfred, who was at the ER with his daughter knew they were not going home any time soon.
"It was a total shock and I was even afraid to tell my wife" he recalled. It was a call he did not want to make.
Kassidi was flown to Intermountain Medical Center in Murray, a trauma center where they had the ability to do transplants if needed. Her liver was failing and a transplant, doctors believed, was her best option at survival.
That's when Kristin got the call her sister was being transferred. She jumped on the first flight to Utah, but when she landed, she was not allowed in the hospital because of COVID-19 protocols. She waited with Kassidi's daughter Emilia, hoping for a miracle.
Both of Kassidi's parents volunteered to donate a portion of their liver, they knew if they were not a match, they could be part of a trade where someone else who was a match could help their daughter.
They never got the chance to offer the lifesaving gift. Doctors at Intermountain were doing everything they could to get Kassidi stable, but nothing seemed to work. Alfred said his daughter's liver, kidney and heart shut down.

Kassidi was dead just thirty hours after arriving in the emergency room.
An autopsy was performed but due to privacy laws, the State Medical Examiner's office can't comment.
However, Utah's chief Medical Examiner Dr. Erik Christensen said proving vaccine injury as a cause of death almost never happens. The only time Dr. Christensen could recall a death where the cause would be from a vaccine would be in the immediate case of Anaphylaxis, and that would be an almost instant death from receiving the shot.
KUTV also discovered four other deaths in their investigation into Utah families who had reported adverse side effects to the Center for Disease Control's Vaccine Adverse Reporting System.
The Doctors' Definitive Statement On COVID: The "Virus" Was Never Proven To Exist – Here's Why
Let's be honest here: This young woman is dead because she responded to the fear generated over a "virus" that no one has isolated or purified, and therefore, not proven to actually exist. She took an experimental injection of a medical device into her body based on fear propaganda put out by Big Pharma, the media and the lying politicians pimping the jab.
