Motorola One Power Stops By TENNA - AndroGuider | One Stop For The Techy You!
Xiaomi released two Android One phones last week, and we now have another one in the works. This one is from Motorola. After the Moto X4 Android One, Motorola is all set to release a new lineup called 'One Power'. Android One phones have been very successful in recent times, so this makes the Motorola One Power a highly anticipated device.
Adding further to the story, the device has now appeared on TENNA, throwing some light on the specs of the device. The model number of the device is XT1942-1 which can vary according to regions.
As always, this is not the official spec sheet, but this does give us an idea about what this new Android One phone is going to carry. The TENNA listing mentions the CPU as an octa-core SoC clocked at 1.8GHz. We expect this to be the Snapdragon 636. Motorola's Moto X4 Android One was a mid-range device, and going by the processor, the Motorola One Power will be another budget offering from Motorola. The power-efficient Snapdragon 636 and a huge 4850mAh battery should translate into a great battery life. How well the One Power will perform in the market depends on the price. The Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 and the Redmi Note 5 Pro are currently the kings of the budget segment, and if Motorola wants to break in, it will have to price the One Power competitively. We will see how Motorola does.


The importance of Livestock products in the diet of Kenyans is amply demonstrated by the observation that some form of livestock product often constitutes any given meal from low-income households through high-income households. The most common form of livestock products consumed by households relate to either meat or dairy products.
While consumption patterns for dairy and other livestock products have recently been studied, meat has continued to receive very little attention. The dearth of studies particularly with regard to urban and rural meat consumption has translated into inadequate information for policy decisions and poorly informed debates. The absence of informative studies on meat consumption patterns has contributed to the relegation of consumer issues and concerns in the livestock policy arena. The lack of articulation of consumer concerns in livestock policy is aggravated by the weak and uncoordinated consumer organizations.
The overly visible attention accorded production and producer issues in livestock policy only serves to further suppress the consumer dimension. It has however been shown that improved agricultural productivity may ultimately be reflected in increased accessibility and affordability of agricultural products to the relief of low resource households.
A recent study on livestock and livestock products production and marketing (European Union, 2003) observed that a major gap in information exists with respect to national meat consumption data. The study had to rely on estimations to discern meat consumption levels, patterns and trends in both urban and rural areas and among different socio-economic groups.
Although excessive consumption of red meat elicits health concerns, it is also recognized that it is a preferred source of proteins for most households who are particularly inclined towards meat. The study focuses on Nairobi as the major urban center and takes account of the large and expanding human population in the city that would be expected to increase demand and stimulate the influx of livestock from far-flung areas and even neighboring countries. This phenomenon occurs due to the realization that prospects for commercialization are to be found in urban areas where the dispersed but diverse and concentrated population require value addition (processing), infrastructural and delivery services for most agricultural produce.
It has been hypothesized that increasing urbanization and population enhances demand for animal protein (Delgado et al, 1999). The demand for meat is nonetheless tempered by prices, income levels and in some cases health considerations. However, the observation for Sub-Saharan Africa negates this hypothesis since available statistics indicate that this is the only region of the world known to have registered declines in food production including livestock products while recording higher population growth rates and urbanization (FAO, 2004).
This study examines urban domestic meat consumption patterns and emerging trends among consumers with different economic backgrounds and socio-economic characteristics. The channels for acquisition of the different meat products are also examined in addition to the terminal livestock markets. It is expected that the information emanating from this study will provide useful insights on the changing urban consumption patterns, trends and the requisite policy issues.

Covering auto crisis putting strain on Detroit staffs
Detroit news leaders told a National Press Club audience that they are doing their best to cover the auto industry crisis, but their staffs are under tremendous pressure.
Changes in technology are providing new ways to reach people, they said, but the demands the technology is putting on reporters are burning them out. And, the panelists said, they worry about which news organizations can survive a long-term economic downturn.
"Does it cause a strain? You know it does," said Jonathan Wolman, editor and publisher of the Detroit News, said of covering the automobile industry crisis with a smaller staff. "The dominance this story has for our community can hardly be exaggerated. So we just keep throwing our folks into the fray."
The automobile industry crisis is drawing more people to mainstream news media, the panelists said, but they also are demanding faster information.
"There's an expectation from our readership that we give them news as we learn it," said Omari Gardner, news editor for digital media at the Detroit Free Press. "It's instantaneous, and it's constant. We have never had better access to our community than we have now. And they have never had better access to us."

This week, we�re driving the all-new fourth generation 2018 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon two-door, not to be confused with the previous generation Wrangler JK series that is still available and starts at $23,995 in two door form.
Jeep�s new generation Wrangler 4x4 is available in three two-door trims and five four-door longer wheelbase models. This new Wrangler is more off road tough and starts at $27,495 for the two-door Sport 4x4. The middle class Sport S starts at $31,145 and from there it�s up to our tester Rubicon top liner at $37,495, the latter which comes with many exclusive features. Included on the Rubicon is the extreme duty and off-road inviting 4:1 Rock-Trac HD Part Time 4WD System that is not available on the Sport and Sport S models. (Four door Wranglers start at $31,445).
Our Rubicon featured an optional $1,095 Freedom Top three-piece hardtop, which replaces the high quality Bestop manufactured soft top that is standard equipment on all Wranglers since 1986. What�s really neat about all Wranglers, soft or hardtop, is the ability to transform into a fun machine as the doors and top are removable for ultimate open air adventures. The Freedom Hardtop option deletes the soft top and then also adds rear wiper/washer, rear defroster and a hardtop storage bag.
Under the hood sits a powerful 24-valve 3.6-liter V6 engine putting out 285 horses and 260 lb. ft. of torque. A new Jeep Wrangler option is an eight-speed automatic transmission that costs $2,000 more than the standard six-speed manual and comes with hill descent and Tip Start features. This automatic is now better suited for low gear off-road or higher-gear highway cruising. The new Wrangler also features start/stop technology to assist fuel mileage and there�s an optional turbo four cylinder in the works which is said to offer more low-end torque and similar peppy overall performance.
Further, when put near 300 miles on our tester and on the smooth freeways our Rubicon Wrangler was a decent riding machine. Considering its multi-task DNA off-road genes and on/off road 33-inch inch B.F. Goodrich All Terrain T/A tires on 17-inch polished wheels, our Rubicon performed well overall even though it�s more suited for off road and poor climate conditions.
In summary, until you own a Jeep Wrangler in any style you may not understand why this vehicle is so trendy. However, you�ll learn fast why there are so many Wranglers of all styles on the road. This realization is half the fun of an off-road ready, heavy duty 4x4 Jeep Wrangler test drive.
Add the other Jeep siblings like Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Compass and Renegade to the fray, and you�ll appreciate why the Jeep brand is probably more valuable to the Fiat Chrysler franchise than any other vehicle it produces.
Check with your dealer for leftover deals on this all-new Wrangler as you�ll probably save a few thousand over the similar 2019 model. And enjoy your test drive.

Socio-ethical Education in Nanotechnology Engineering Programmes: A Case Study in Malaysia [Book Review]
Balamuralithara Balakrishnan, Pek Hoon Er & Punita Visvanathan
Science and Engineering Ethics 19 (3):1341-1355 (2013)
A Meta-analytic Comparison of Face-to-Face and Online Delivery in Ethics Instruction: The Case for a Hybrid Approach.E. Michelle Todd, Logan L. Watts, Tyler J. Mulhearn, Brett S. Torrence, Megan R. Turner, Shane Connelly & Michael D. Mumford - 2017 - Science and Engineering Ethics 23 (6):1719-1754.details
Despite the growing body of literature on training in the responsible conduct of research, few studies have examined the effectiveness of delivery formats used in ethics courses. The present effort sought to address this gap in the literature through a meta-analytic review of 66 empirical studies, representing 106 ethics courses and 10,069 participants. The frequency and effectiveness of 67 instructional and process-based content areas were also assessed for each delivery format. Process-based contents were best delivered face-to-face, whereas contents delivered online (...) were most effective when restricted to compliance-based instructional contents. Overall, hybrid courses were found to be most effective, suggesting that ethics courses are best delivered using a blend of formats and content areas. Implications and recommendations for future development of ethics education courses in the sciences are discussed. (shrink)
Review of Instructional Approaches in Ethics Education. [REVIEW]Tyler J. Mulhearn, Logan M. Steele, Logan L. Watts, Kelsey E. Medeiros, Michael D. Mumford & Shane Connelly - 2017 - Science and Engineering Ethics 23 (3):883-912.details
Increased investment in ethics education has prompted a variety of instructional objectives and frameworks. Yet, no systematic procedure to classify these varying instructional approaches has been attempted. In the present study, a quantitative clustering procedure was conducted to derive a typology of instruction in ethics education. In total, 330 ethics training programs were included in the cluster analysis. The training programs were appraised with respect to four instructional categories including instructional content, processes, delivery methods, and activities. Eight instructional approaches were (...) identified through this clustering procedure, and these instructional approaches showed different levels of effectiveness. Instructional effectiveness was assessed based on one of nine commonly used ethics criteria. With respect to specific training types, Professional Decision Processes Training and Field-Specific Compliance Training appear to be viable approaches to ethics training based on Cohen's d effect size estimates. By contrast, two commonly used approaches, General Discussion Training and Norm Adherence Training, were found to be considerably less effective. The implications for instruction in ethics training are discussed. (shrink)
Ethical Risk Management Education in Engineering: A Systematic Review.Yoann Guntzburger, Thierry C. Pauchant & Philippe A. Tanguy - 2017 - Science and Engineering Ethics 23 (2):323-350.details
Risk management is certainly one of the most important professional responsibilities of an engineer. As such, this activity needs to be combined with complex ethical reflections, and this requirement should therefore be explicitly integrated in engineering education. In this article, we analyse how this nexus between ethics and risk management is expressed in the engineering education research literature. It was done by reviewing 135 articles published between 1980 and March 1, 2016. These articles have been selected from 21 major journals (...) that specialize in engineering education, engineering ethics and ethics education. Our review suggests that risk management is mostly used as an anecdote or an example when addressing ethics issues in engineering education. Further, it is perceived as an ethical duty or requirement, achieved through rational and technical methods. However, a small number of publications do offer some critical analyses of ethics education in engineering and their implications for ethical risk and safety management. Therefore, we argue in this article that the link between risk management and ethics should be further developed in engineering education in order to promote the progressive change toward more socially and environmentally responsible engineering practices. Several research trends and issues are also identified and discussed in order to support the engineering education community in this project. (shrink)
Engineering Ethics in Applied Ethics
Engineering Ethics Education: A Comparative Study of Japan and Malaysia.Balamuralithara Balakrishnan, Fumihiko Tochinai & Hidekazu Kanemitsu - 2019 - Science and Engineering Ethics 25 (4):1069-1083.details
This paper reports the findings of a comparative study in which students' perceived attainment of the objectives of an engineering ethics education and their attitude towards engineering ethics were investigated and compared. The investigation was carried out in Japan and Malaysia, involving 163 and 108 engineering undergraduates respectively. The research method used was based on a survey in which respondents were sent a questionnaire to elicit relevant data. Both descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were performed on the data. The results (...) of the analyses showed that the attainment of the objectives of engineering ethics education and students' attitude towards socio-ethical issues in engineering were significantly higher and positive among Japanese engineering students compared to Malaysian engineering students. Such findings suggest that a well-structured, integrated, and innovative pedagogy for teaching ethics will have an impact on the students' attainment of ethics education objectives and their attitude towards engineering ethics. As such, the research findings serve as a cornerstone to which the current practice of teaching and learning of engineering ethics education can be examined more critically, such that further improvements can be made to the existing curriculum that can help produce engineers that have strong moral and ethical characters.

Q: trivial Picard group let $S=\operatorname{Spec}(A)$ be an affine scheme. For which ring $A$, not field is it known that $H^1(S,\mathcal{O}_S^{*})$ is trivial?
If $X\to S$ is a finite map and $H^1(S,\mathcal{O}_S^{*})$ is trivial, is it true that also $H^1(X,\mathcal{O}_X^{*})$ is trivial?
Thanks

A: Sample answers to your first question: If $S$ is Spec of a local ring, or of a UFD, then $H^1(S, \mathcal O_S^{\times})$ is trivial.
The answer to your second question is no: $X = $Spec $\mathbb C[x,y]/(y^2 - x^3 +x) \to S =$ Spec $\mathbb C[x]$ gives a counterexample of a geometric nature, and $X =$Spec $\mathbb Z[\sqrt{-5}] \to S =$ Spec $\mathbb Z$ gives a counterexample of an arithmetic nature.

Brad Pitt Blows $33 Million In 1 Hour Vintage Shopping Spree
FILE - In this Friday, Jan. 9, 2015, file photo, Brad Pitt arrives at the AFI Awards at The Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles. Netflix has acquired the satirical comedy "War Machine," with Pitt set to star as General Stanley McChrystal. The acquisition, announced Monday, June 8, 2015, by Netflix, adds a major dose of star power to the streaming service's growing stable of original films. Netflix will produce the film, to be directed by Australian filmmaker David Michod. (Photo by Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP, File)
Brad Pitt played a man who aged backwards in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, but these days he apparently thinks older is better.
New Idea reports that the 51-year-old is addicted to buying antiques and recently spent $33million in one shopping spree. Brad's dealer and pal Bill Ketterer revealed the details of the actor's new obsession.
"My friends told me how Brad turned up at one art and furniture show, spent $33million in an hour, then just got back on his plane and left," he said.
Such financial decadence probably got him a stern side-eye from wife Angelina Jolie, 40. After all, the couple have been trying to cut down on expenses, recently flying economy with the kids from Paris to Nice.
That hasn't stopped Brad from continuing to add to his already-considerable collection of art deco chairs, tables and lamps with regular trips to Bill's furniture showroom and warehouse in California.
"When Brad comes to the warehouse, I don't advise him," he says. "He usually has an interior designer or other people with him and he says to them: 'Hey, just wait in the car.'
"Brad told me once, the reason he likes to come here is because it's really soulful."
Antiquing might be good for his soul, but what about the Jolie-Pitt bank account? Sounds like they might soon have to buy a few more multi-million dollar homes just to store Brad's vintage haul.


(JTA) — UNESCO, the United Nations agency that has rejected Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem, and the World Jewish Congress have launched a website dedicated to Holocaust education and memory.
The website, called Facts about the Holocaust, was unveiled Monday at UNESCO headquarters in Paris by the scientific and cultural agency's director-general, Audrey Azoulay, who is Jewish, and WJC President Ronald Lauder. Some 150 presidents of Jewish communities worldwide were on hand to sign a commitment to the preservation of Holocaust memory and to fighting anti-Semitism worldwide.
The site includes important facts, video testimonials of survivors, and the latest news updates about Holocaust educational programs and activities. It links to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum's website for a more in-depth and advanced look at the topics.
In December, Israel announced that it would leave the agency over what it called UNESCO's "biased, one-sided and absurd attitude" over Israel. The withdrawal will go into effect next month, at the same time as the United States. The two countries will remain as observer states.
In recent years, UNESCO has passed resolutions rejectingIsraeli sovereignty over Jerusalem, and placed the Cave of the Patriarchs and the Old City of Hebron in the State of Palestine on the list of world heritage sites in danger. It frequently refers to the Temple Mount only by its Arabic name, Al-Haram al-Sharif.


This extended service will provide out of hours GP health advice and treatment for minor illnesses and injuries and will provide parents with a local alternative to A&E when their child is ill.
Dr Chet Sheth, spokesperson for Wiltshire Clinical Commissioning Group and GP at St Anne Street practice comments: "We understand how worrying it is for parents to have a sick child especially when local GP surgeries are closed. Often the default for parents is to take their poorly child to A&E. This isn't always the best place for them and quite often it's local community health advice and treatment that is needed.
"This new out of hours service is designed to reduce some of the pressure seen at A&E over the winter months and to provide parents with accessible, local, health advice and treatment.
Parents should ring 111 in the first instance. If necessary the call handler will then advise parents to contact the Salisbury Walk In Centre to make a same day appointment. If however, your child has a serious or life threatening condition please call 999.
The service is available for children under 10 years old who live in the south of the county. The daily service will run Monday to Friday 18:00 – 22:00 and Saturday and Sunday 16:00 – 20:00. In the initial stages of the pilot during December the service will not run at the weekend. The Salisbury Walk in Centre can be found at Avon Approach, Salisbury, Wiltshire SP1 3SL.


The University of Maryland University College (UMUC) Korea Commencement ceremony will take place on April 27 beginning at 11 a.m.
To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the March 1st movement, a variety of events will take place next month at the Busan Independence Hall.
Almost 70 years later, many still come together to highlight a battle where service members of different nationalities fought together to defeat a mutual enemy.

Q: Another weird behavior of css How to fix it? Another weird behavior of css:
I have this structure and apperently I should get the strong tag ltr and everything else in p tag rtl:

p {
     direction: rtl;
}

strong {
    direction: ltr !important;
}

This should be to right side. این باید سمت راست باشد

But it ignores the style of strong tag - how can I fix this?

A: From MDN:

For the direction property to have any effect on inline-level elements, the unicode-bidi property's value must be embed or override.

So you could do something like this…

p {
     direction: rtl;
     unicode-bidi: bidi-override; /* Dirty great hack; don't do this */
}

strong {
    direction: ltr !important;
}

This should be to right side. این باید سمت راست باشد

However the documentation for that property says:

Warning: This property is intended for Document Type Definition (DTD) designers. Web designers and similar authors should not override it.

The real issue here is that strong is an inline element. It can start in the middle of a line. It can word wrap.
There's not really a "left" or "right" because it isn't a solid block.

p {
     direction: rtl;
}

strong {
    direction: ltr !important;
}

Text outside the strong. Text outside the strong. Text outside the strong.  The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.  این باید سمت راست باشد این باید سمت راست باشد این باید سمت راست باشد این باید سمت راست باشد این باید سمت راست باشد این باید سمت راست باشد. Text outside the strong. Text outside the strong. Text outside the strong.

You could set display: block on the strong element, but it would make more sense to just style the paragraph itself.

Essential Safety Measures When Working on Scaffolding
Accidents can happen when working on scaffolding. Someone could get hurt or worse get killed while a scaffolding is in use. However, these things can be prevented if essential safety measures are taken prior to and during the process of construction.
Scaffolding is an important part of any construction job. This temporary work platform helps support workers, materials and equipment in a way that ladders would not allow. Despite its straightforward use, though, scaffolding is one of the highest-risk areas for construction workers because they are working off the ground. In fact, a lot of injuries and deaths involving scaffolding happen every year.
Fortunately, such fatalities can be prevented if employers, contractors and workers take safety precautions prior to and while working on the platform. Hence, if you are involved in a construction project, carefully follow the safety measures outlined below to ensure the safe use of scaffolding.
Ensure all workers are properly trained
As per industry standards, scaffolding should only be erected, dismantled or accessed by workers who have been properly trained under the supervision of an industry expert. Everyone who will be working on the platform should have a clear understanding of its design and operations and should also know safe work practices, including correct procedures when dealing with electrical and fall hazards, use of personal fall arrest systems and the load-carrying capacity of the scaffolding being used.
Do not skip on the prep work
Proper preparation is the key to ensuring a safe and stable scaffolding. So before using the platform, be sure that its base is level and properly adjusted and its legs are stable. This will help minimize the risk of workers losing their balance. The entire structure should also be adequately secured to the building where work will be done and proper access points should be provided. The right locking mechanisms should also be used and should never be replaced with nails or other miscellaneous parts to avoid them from dislodging. Equally important is that the platform has secure guardrails in place. As a rule of thumb, there should be guardrails on three sides facing away from the building, with each side having top, middle and bottom rails.
As for the ground condition, the area on which the scaffold stands should be clear of slopes or surface elevation and it should not be obstructed by overhead utility lines to avoid problems later on.
Respect the load capacity
Special attention should be given to the loads to which the scaffolding will be subjected to. Scaffolding has a maximum intended load carrying capacity and this should be followed with great care. Do not to overload the platform with equipment and materials and never attempt to fit more workers than it is capable of handling to prevent the structure from collapsing.
Use the right protection and use common sense when working on scaffolding
Anyone working on scaffolding should wear the right protective gear. This include head protection, non-slip protective footwear and fall arrest system. Also, while working on the platform, it is best move around slowly to maintain balance. All the materials and equipment used on the scaffolding should be properly stored after a day's work as they can become trip hazards if left lying on the platform.

Scaffolding Designs Are Important In Construction
Scaffolding engineering companies are in the business of designing scaffolds that are tailored to meet the specific requirements of their clients. Scaffolding is particularly important in building construction, as it enables the workers to effectively carry out a variety of functions like painting, cleaning, and repairs among others. It offers flexibility and safety while moving and performing the various construction-related duties. Scaffold structures are mostly made of steel or timber. There are various types of scaffolding designs, which can be tailored to fit the diverse kinds of buildings irrespective of their height or shape. Below are some common types of designs that are offered by scaffolding engineering firms.
Independent or Birdcage Scaffold Design
This type of scaffold is constructed together with a building. It has rows of standards or vertical poles that are connected by horizontal ledgers or pieces and transoms. Since an independent scaffold has uprights or standards on the sides of the working platforms, it is able to remain upright without any support from the structure or building under repair or construction. However, extra support can be provided by tying or securing the scaffold to the construction building at different intervals. This type of scaffold is designed to be used on one level only, like in ceiling jobs.
Single Pole Scaffold Design
This scaffold design features one row of standards or poles. A single pole scaffold depends on the structure under construction or repair for much-needed support.
This is a kind of independent freestanding scaffolding engineering design. The scaffold is mounted on wheels or castors that swivel. This allows the structures to be moved around easily from one place to another.
Swingstage or Suspended Scaffold Design
This type of scaffold design has a free hanging or suspended platform that can either be lowered or raised. This design is commonly used to clean the outer parts of windows on tower blocks or high-rises.
Hanging Bracket Scaffold Design
This scaffolding design has a somewhat complex framework made of horizontal components that are held up or supported by the building's floor or other structures under repair or construction. Hanging bracket scaffolds must be designed by a professional engineer, as part of their construction involves load testing among other safety checks.

Firms challenged to beat Scaffolding world record
A Glasgow-based construction firm has laid down the gauntlet to fellow industry competitors to beat a 17-year old world record for assembling scaffolding.
Turner Access created a Guinness World Record in 1995 when they erected a 100sqm scaffolding structure in just 26 minutes and now the company are inviting challengers to beat their long-standing accomplishment.
Completing such work would usually take anywhere up to 16 hours but two scaffolders defied the odds almost two decades ago to significantly reduce the standard construction time.
Gary Gallacher, Turner Access' managing director, claims that the success of this year's London Olympic Games has been the inspiration behind the renewed attempt to beat the existing scaffolding record.
"We arranged this competition in connection with Guinness, to see how long it would take our scaffolders to build it up," he told STV.
"We erected our [1995] 100sqm structure in around 20mins that would usually take 16 man hours.
"The only problem was that back then there wasn't the same stringent need for harnesses as there is now so, in the spirit of the Olympics we're going to do it again this year."
The new competition has also been prompted by changes in the regulations of scaffold building. In 1995, the challengers were allowed to arrange the scaffolding without considering certain health and safety procedures that are compulsory today.

Which Type of Scaffolding Tower Is Best For You?
Scaffolding helps to shape some of the major construction or repair plans of buildings and provides the formwork for the materials that will keep such structures in place.
Without scaffolding we wouldn't have such glorious architecture in place in our society today. One particular form of scaffolding comes in towers – these are designed for construction workers to make changes to structures above the ground. Hence the appearance of a vertical framework against the side of a building and the name 'tower'.
Scaffold towers come in three different formats and each has different attributes to them that make them appealing for various construction jobs.
Aluminium Scaffolding Towers
Aluminium scaffolding towers are lightweight and designed to be easy to use – making them an ideal solution for residential structures and tasks such as painting or installing a window. Typically, scaffolding can be made of steel but the aluminium structure is a much more practical answer if you're looking for mobility. While aluminium scaffolding can be more expensive than steel, it is more durable and rust free.
Fibreglass Scaffolding Towers
Fibreglass scaffolding towers are developed to provide functionality while prioritising safety. Because the structure is made of fibreglass, it can prevent hazards such as electrocution – making it the only solution for environments where electricity is present. Durable and easy to use, the fibreglass scaffolding tower is the most expensive type of scaffold tower on the market. These units come with straight forward setup instructions and are built by simply piecing them together. This also makes them a fantastic portability option – some structures even come with wheels so you don't have to dismantle them.
Steel Scaffolding Towers
Steel scaffolding towers are the most traditional and common type of formwork structure on the market. Noted for being extremely durable, steel scaffolding towers are predominantly used when workers are dealing with large, heavy and articulated materials. However, these structures are difficult to move – mainly because of their excessive weight – and therefore should only be used for specific jobs that don't require mobility. For all operations that require the use of heavy-weighted materials, steel scaffolding towers really are the only answer to your problems.

The Effect of Britain's Recession on Manufacturing
Friday, September 21st, 2012
The state of Britain's manufacturing sector remains on the downward spiral after it was revealed that there had been a drop in output.
Earlier this month, data was published by the Office for National Statistics showing that there had been a 0.7 per cent drop in manufacturing output between March and April 2012.
This came as an unexpected disappointment with a previous report showing a 0.9 per cent increase in the output.
The statistics confirms that Britain is still very much in a recession that could extend throughout the summer and beyond.
While a 0.9 per cent decrease doesn't sound particularly significant, the statistic becomes all the more concerning when you consider that industrial production – of which two-thirds is made up of the manufacturing sector such as formwork and scaffolding suppliers – had been boosted by weather factors.
As previously stated, the results come as a blow after business data from April had hinted that Britain's factories were in line for an increased run of production that would in turn help the country's economy.
However, this predicted has failed to come to fruition and now Britain faces a further drop in the value of gross domestic product.
It had been hoped that the manufacturing sector would provide the formwork for a move away from the recession as it had been in the 1980s and 1990s. However, in spite of a 25 per cent reduction in the value of the British pound, the manufacturing sector has failed to become the same catalyst this time around.
Figures seem to confirm this with the sector 8 per cent below its pre-recession peak.
To make matters worse, the North Sea – which can act as a compensator for manufacturing – is running dry with oil and gas extractions down by a staggering 41 per cent from this time four years ago.
With the manufacturing area struggling, it could be down to other industry sectors to help Britain come out of the recession.

Things You Might Not Know About The Olympic Stadium
The 80,000 strong Olympic Stadium may be in the midst of hosting the Olympic and Paralympic Games in London this year but have you ever stopped to think what will happen to the structure after the event comes to a conclusion and what makes it such an attractive proposition?
One thing is almost certain, the stadia won't remain as an 80,000-seater venue with proposals from football clubs West Ham United and Leyton Orient suggesting reductions to respective 60,000 and 25,000 capacities.
The Olympic Legacy Company is the institution who makes the decision regarding the future of the Olympic Stadium but a number of legal wrangles between the aforementioned West Ham, Leyton Orient and another professional football side, Tottenham Hotspur, have halted the race to win the keys to the ground in 2013.
Whatever the outcome, the Olympic Legacy Company will be desperate to avoid a situation similar to their Greek counterparts which has seen their stadium equivalent described as a place of "desolation and despair".
To the naked eye, the London Olympic Stadium presents a bowl-like shape with triangular pointing lights that spike out at the top of the structure. However, there is much more to the building of the venue which cost £500m to construct and three years to build using formwork – all of which makes it a worthwhile acquisition to bidders. To demonstrate, here are some things you may not know about the Olympic Stadium.
Second Olympic Stadium
Built in less than a year, the first Olympic Stadium to grace the UK was in 1908 after the country stepped in for Rome who were originally due to host the event. It cost just £60,000 to construct and even incorporated a swimming pool in the middle of the stadium. It was demolished in 1985.
Built in layers
Like the dissection of an onion, the Olympic Stadium can be peeled back in layers. Architects Populous specifically designed the stadium with its long-term legacy in mind. The temporary layers of the structure include the roof, the wrap and the upper tier seats which can all be stripped off to reduce the capacity to a total of 25,000
The roof
The existing roof on the Olympic Stadium is made of PVC rather than more common place materials such as steel or concrete. This decision was made so the roof could be easily dismantled and have a minimal environmental affect while reducing costs.
Black and white seats
You may have noticed the black and white seat design within the stands of the Olympic Stadium. Shaped in jagged shards, the colour scheme is meant to be a tribute towards the London 2012 graphics and logo which also features sharp and cutting edges. The lines of the design are co-ordinated to point at towards the 100m finishing line – representing the point which energy radiates.
The bars, food areas and information points have all been built as individual pods that are located in and around the stadium which means they can easily be removed without the added hassle of reconstruction to the formwork of the structure.

Formwork helps football tournament score major victory
One of the leading manufacturers of formwork in Europe are celebrating after their hard work came to a conclusion at the European Championships in Poland and Ukraine.
PERI, a German supplier of formwork and scaffolding systems, were a crucial factor in the building of the eight venues at the Euro 2012 football tournament.
The construction company have reasons to be proud of their work with the event playing host to one of the most compelling and exciting football championships in many years.
Five of the eight venues were specifically built for the event while the other three were reconstructed – all of which were aided with the help of formwork and scaffolding.
Stadiums included the Polish venues of Wroclaw, Gdansk, Poznan and Warsaw while Ukraine saw enhancements to Kharkiv, Donetsk, Kiev and Lviv.
The biggest of the new stadiums is that of the National Stadium located in Warsaw which saw development begin in 2009.
Holding a 56,000 capacity, the ground entertained the first game of the championship between Poland and Greece and also hosted the semi-final tie between Germany and Italy as well as three other matches.
England were knocked out of the tournament by Italy in the reconstructed Olympic Stadium in Kiev which now holds over 64,000 thanks to the use of formwork.

Why We Use Scaffolding in the Construction Industry
During the construction and repair of buildings, scaffolding is used to support workers and machinery. They are a safe way for materials and people to move along the building and work, especially when it comes to tall buildings.
In the beginning, scaffolding was made of bamboo or wood. Now they are made of metal pipes or hoses and are much sturdier. The most commonly used metals are aluminium and steel. Of the two, aluminium is the superior choice as it can be stored easily and used outside without worry of rust and comes with a lifetime guarantee. If the use of the scaffolding is to do electric work, aluminium or steel or any metal pipes will conduct electricity, so fibre glass frames should be used. Some come inclusive with platforms.
They are usually quite complex structures and need a structural engineer to set it up and have it constructed. If needed, scaffolding may be linked to the building in places. But scaffolding is not restricted to base plates as they may be used without them on other hard surfaces and structures like concrete. A scaffold tower is self-supporting and does not need to lean against a wall or a building eliminating the risk of slipping. They are not, however, used independently.
Initially, scaffolding used to be quite unstable as it was constructed to support workers for a building. However, it has developed into an industry of its own as there is a growing market for it. Now that there is a more professionalism when it comes to scaffolding, there is more sophistication and safety. There are various different models to suit different application needs. There are also regulations regarding scaffolding so that a certain rather strict standard is met (concerning quality of materials used and safety regulations) especially in the UK and Europe.
Details to watch out for
No matter what material the scaffolding is made of, make sure it conforms to the BS EN1004 standard, or, if it's being bought elsewhere, an equivalent rating.
It's always better to get scaffolding with attached platforms that have non-slip texture and give the feet a good grip. Some companies offer frame platforms that are attached with a crimping method. This can come loose over time and become risky to use. Ensure that you get the platforms have double welded joints. These are much more reliable.
Depending on your need, make sure the scaffolding is sufficiently thick and able to bear the weight of the workers and materials involved.

"It was really fun. I love doing all the code," Calderon said.
Code Orange is a student-led nonprofit. Its goal is to teach young children from underserved communities in Austin not only how to code, but also how to use a variety of technologies. Current leader Moiz Rizvi, a computer science junior, and several of his peers founded Code Orange last September.
The organization uses Scratch, a visual programming language, to teach seven- to 12-year-old children how to make interactive games, keep websites and learn programming languages, such as Python.
The group also provides each child a role model through a mentor/mentee program. They want to give each child a mentor to not only teach them how to code, but also to be someone they can be friends with.
Last Friday, the organization held a demo day, in which over 50 students from Zavala and UT Elementary Schools demonstrated projects they had been working on throughout the spring semester.
"I think the projects and the kids' hard work really speaks for itself," Rizvi said.
Most of the children created games, while some, such as Calderon, learned Python and HTML.
Calderon's mentor — Sohum Chitalia, a finance, business honors and computer science junior — said he was very proud of Calderon.
Parents of the students attended the awards ceremony, during which students received a certificate indicating that they were a part of the mentorship program.
The organization currently consists of UT students, but Rizvi said they have plans to expand to allow community members to join the group as either teachers or mentors — they're recruiting this coming summer. Rizvi said they do not just want to make an impact in the lives of children; they want to reach out to the public.
"If you came out to demo day, you would've seen for yourself how genuinely engaged and talented these kids were in the first place," he said.

Local community and social responsibility revolves about the understanding of the affect your enterprise has on the surroundings, on individuals, the local community and the sustainability of the worlds resources. A organization in your area local community goes outside of building revenue and getting prosperity and therefore you need to have to acknowledge your obligation to the broader pursuits of your clients, employees and the local community in which you do the job. This commitment to your local local community, the surroundings you function and dwell in and the people you outcome will have a lasting impact on your enterprise in terms of making believe in and assist from other people. Alternatively than see it as an additional way for federal government to make your existence tricky with much more crimson tape, see it as a way to raise the amount of social engagement you have with the community community, your customers, suppliers, clientele, and spouse and children. None of us are living or get the job done in a vacuum and a lot of of your workers will have a vested curiosity in the community community as a lot of of them will dwell their. Your spot in just a local community is underpinned by the romantic relationship you have with your local community. Keep in mind, your local community is all the persons you offer with, perform with and do business enterprise with. Business enterprise spends a large amount of time and dollars on engaging with it audience to provide its goods and to obtain new clients.

DA SILVA FRANCISCO DA SILVA
ARTISTA OPERE MOSTRE IN ASTA
Biography Francisco da Silva 1910, Alto Tejo - AC / 1985, Fortaleza - CE Was born in Acre, in the middle of the Amazon rainforest, son of Mervina Felis de Lima and the Peruvian Indian mestizo Domingos da Silva. He is perhaps the first popular artist, after Vitalino in the media to become known nationwide and even in specialized foreign markets. In a interview with me at his home in Pirambu, in 1974, Chico Silva spoke in fluent and correct Portuguese about his childhood, summing it up: "to the manager from the river, shooting pellets at birds". He moved to Ceará State with his family when he was six years old. He then went to live on a farm in Quixadá. On the death of his mother, who had recommended him to farmer friends, "I was being brought up always among people. I didn't need to go to school. I already had nature." When He was 12 years old He moved to Guaramiranga, where He stayed until early manhood. He began painting in Fortaleza, capital of the State of Ceará, his home since 1935, doing odd jobs in shoemaking, plumbing, welding, stonemasonry, and carpentry, and painting walls. What he most enjoyed doing, however, "was to draw on the walls of fishermen's houses using fresh green grass and white and red bricks (because I didn't have paint at the time)". Heloisa Juaçaba added: "He would also use a piece of charcoal that he would call caon mortuário, to obtain black and gray effects." And then his large Amazon birds, marine figures and dragons were seen for the first time by the Swiss critic and painter Jean Pierre Chabloz, during his first stay in Ceará, between 1943 and 1944. "No one knew the name of those fishes", Chico told me, "because each day I'd invent a different fish: my mind's full of fishes." One of the dragons could be "the Dadãodão, a prehistoric monster of the air, things of the past century. And Redemunho with its prehistoric hell, a life of persecution. Children pursue their parents because they want to be better than they are", he concluded in Freudian fashion. Chabloz introduced him to gouache, a material that he continued to use his life through because of the affinity with his first way of painting, and he was invited to exhibitions in Fortaleza (1943), Geneva (1949), Neuchâtel (1956), and individual exhibitions in Rio de Janeiro (1945) and Lausanne (1950). Chabloz wrote the article for Cahiers d'Art on "A Brazilian Indian reinvents painting" in 1952, when Chico's art was presented to André Malraux and Christian Zervos. A color feature in the O Cruzeiro magazine projected him nationwide. In 1945, when he exhibited in Rio de Janeiro at the Askanasy Gallery, critic Ruben Navarra commented: "I must say that this indigenous artist's gouaches are a very serious thing. In Brazilian art only Cícero Dias, ten years earlier, gave me such a powerful impression of lyrical naivety with respect to painting." The first few absences of Chabloz from Brazil in the 1940s correspond to Chico's giving up painting, to be then resumed when the Swiss painter returned to Fortaleza. On one of his return trips in 1959 Chabloz tried to encourage Chico again, giving him a job as servant with the rector of the Federal University of Ceará, which in fact meant making a place for him to be able to paint and reflect on his work. In the University Art Museum, Chico made the large group of gouaches that are still today in its collection. The 1960s were the start of Chico's painful and spectacular circumnavigation , when he left the University, exposed to galloping merchandising of his art, with rare moments of exception, such as the exhibitions in Relevo Gallery (Rio de Janeiro, 1963), Galeria Jacques Massol (Paris, 1965) and Brazilian Primitive Artists (cities in Europe, including Moscow, 1966). He was given honorable mention in the 1966 Venice Biennial, when critic Clarival do Prado Valladares was curator, who on that occasion wrote: "He is the interpreter of a mythology diluted in the oral tradition of a vast region that only he fixed and reflected. (…). Another relevant aspect is his plastic quality, his well-ordered and constructed composition. (…). His style, the weave of the drawing, polychromy and enriching details are outstanding characteristics." While on this brilliant circuit, a collective production network of his works was set up in Fortaleza with the consent of the artist, who was now occasionally turning to drink. Hundreds of oil paintings canvases appeared, much easier to do than gouaches on cardboard. Chico's exposure to media and the market had been too much. In the 1970s he fell ill and his prestige declined and copies of his work were even found in souvenirs stores. On 1974 the State government offered him another home, but the now invalid artist was admitted to a clinic in 1977, which he was to leave only to participate in the 1st Latin American Biennial, organized by the São Paulo Biennial. Further relapses, more controversies about falsifications, the grant of the lifelong pension and offer of a home by the Ceará State government were highlights in the year when Chico da Silva died, father of nine living children and one of the greatest Brazilian artists.

The portion demolished was by the Pankow. Image: Tholin37 Wikimedia CC BY-SA 4.0
196 metres of the Berlin Wall, one of the longest parts of what remains has disappeared almost overnight.
The remains were demolished to to make way for luxury condominiums. This particular portion of the wall had no special historical designations so the developers did not have to adhere to any specific procedures. The Berlin Wall Foundation, established in 2008 to document the wall's history and preserve its remains, says it was not informed about the removal.

New California & National Polls Show Sanders Crushing 2020 Rivals Among Voters Under 45
Posted By: Mark Taylor December 12, 2019
"It's clear where the future of the Democratic Party is."
By Julia Conley
Common Dreams (12/11/19)
New polling out of California reveals that Sen. Bernie Sanders' presidential bid is garnering the most support from young voters in the state and elicits the most enthusiasm from Californians as a whole.
Among respondents under the age of 45 who answered the CNN poll, 32% said they were most likely to support the Vermont Democrat. Just 13% said they currently back former Vice President Joe Biden, while 18% expressed support for Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), giving Sanders a 13-point lead with potential voters in that age bracket.
Biden has the most support in the state among people over age 65, 37% of whom said they support him versus only 8% who backed Sanders, according to the poll, in which 1,203 people were surveyed.
South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg—by far the youngest of the top four leading 2020 candidates—is also getting the majority of his support in the state from older voters, with 14% of people between 50 and 64 saying they would vote for him compared to just 6% of people under 45 saying the same.
With Warren in third place in the poll overall with 17%, CNN noted that while Biden won 21% of overall support from all Californians versus Sanders' 20%, respondents responded most enthusiastically to Sanders' campaign.
"42% of likely Democratic primary voters say they would be extremely enthusiastic if he were the nominee, compared with 35% saying so for Biden, 34% for Warren and 23% for Buttigieg," the outlet reported.
Californians also saw the Vermont senator as best able to handle healthcare, climate, and gun control policies. Buttigieg was ranked several points below each of the other four top candidates in terms of his ability to pass policies regarding major issues, also including the economy and immigration.
Enthusiasm for Sanders in California, especially among young voters, was mirrored in a national poll released by Quinnipiac University on Tuesday.
Nationally, 52% of voters under age 35 said they were supporting Sanders, according to the poll, which surveyed more than 1,500 people.
Warren was supported by 17% of respondents under 35, Biden by 11%, and Buttigieg by just 2%.
Sanders also weighed in on the new data, tweeting, "Young people are ready for a political revolution."

Dumpster rental firms normally have set prices, but the fine art of negotiation is constantly in play. Should you want to dicker on the purchase price, call around to other companies first so you understand what the going rental rate is. When you are speaking to the company you intend to utilize, simply mention other prices which are better than theirs. Some companies will not only fit that lower cost, they'll really beat it to suit their customers.
You can even ask about discounts when you are renting a dumpster in Brighton. Some companies will supply special discounts to active members of the military, veterans, seniors, members of the neighborhood Chamber of Commerce and much more. It never hurts to ask; you can sometimes save up to 10 percent or more with this procedure.
You can also save on the cost by asking about the best way to avert additional expenses (such as tipping fees or overage costs) and making sure you order the right size container; you don't desire to pay for more container than you really desire.
What if I need my dumpster in Brighton picked up early?
When you make arrangements to rent a dumpster in Brighton, part of your rental agreement comprises a given length of time you're allowed to use the container. You generally base this time on the length of time you think your project might take. The bigger the project, the longer you'll need the dumpster. Most firms in Brighton give you a speed for a specific amount of days. Should you surpass that quantity of days, you'll pay an additional fee daily. If the project goes more rapidly than expected, perhaps you are ended with the dumpster earlier than you anticipated.
If this is true, give the dumpster business a call and they'll likely come pick your container up early; this will enable them to rent it to someone else more fast. You normally WOn't get a discount on your rate if you ask for early pickup. Your rental fee includes 7 days (or no matter your term is), whether you use them all or not.
Dumpster rental businesses that charge flat rates are often the top alternatives for contractors and home owners. When you use a company that bills a flat rate, you can expect at least two benefits.
Paying a flat rate usually means that you get to avoid any hidden fees and charges. Companies which usually do not charge flat fees may include additional charges for basic services like dropping off the dumpster. Keep in mind, nevertheless, which you still may have to pay extra should you would like to include specific items and stuff in the dumpster.
Having a flat rate also means you can prepare your payment ahead of time. This really is particularly useful when you need somebody else to make the payment for you. When you understand the precise quantity, you can compose a check ahead of time. Afterward, anyone can pay the rental company when its driver drops off the dumpster.
It's difficult to conquer a roll off dumpster when you've got a big job that may create lots of debris. Most rental companies include dropping off and picking up the dumpster in the costs, in order to avoid additional fees. Roll off dumpsters generally have time restrictions because businesses need to get them back for other customers. This is really a potential drawback if you aren't good at meeting deadlines.
Dumpster bags are often suitable for small jobs with free deadlines. If you don't need a lot of room for debris, then the bags could work well for you. Many businesses are also happy to allow you to maintain the bags for so long as you want. That makes them useful for longer jobs.
As with any service, it's almost always a good plan to reserve your dumpster as far ahead as you possibly can in order to make sure the dumpster will be available when you require it. If you wait until the final minute, there's no promise the business will soon be able to fill your order.
Two or three days notice is normally adequate to ensure your dumpster delivery punctually. Keep in mind the busiest days are usually on Mondays and Fridays (surrounding the weekend), so if you're able to plan your job for the middle of the week, you have a better possibility of getting the dumpster you will need.
Determining where to put your dumpster can get a huge impact on how fast you complete endeavors. The most efficient alternative is to pick a place that's near the worksite. It is very important, however, to contemplate whether this place is a safe alternative. Make sure that the area is free of obstructions that could trip individuals while they take heavy debris.
Lots of individuals decide to set dumpsters in their drives. It is a convenient alternative as it usually means you can avoid requesting the city for a license or permit. In the event you have to set the dumpster on the road, then you definitely need to get in touch with your local government to inquire whether you have to get a permit. Although many municipalities will let folks keep dumpsters on the road for brief amounts of time, others are going to request that you complete some paperwork. Following these rules can help you stay away from fines which will make your project more costly.


Consider that you're using the presumably smart file-copying program we just defined to copy a large file from a fast local store to a slow network drive. Midway through the copy, there's a read error—the file is corrupt. That causes read and subsequently main to throw an exception while there are many buffers in flight that haven't yet been written. More generally, we saw that if the owner terminates normally, any blocking call to receive from its owned threads will throw. What happens if the owner exits with an exception?
If a thread terminates by means of an exception, that indicates a serious issue that must be signaled with relative urgency to the owned threads. Indeed this is carried out via an out-of-band message.
If the call to receive handles type T, then the priority message will be the next message handled, even though it arrived later than other regular (non-priority) messages. Priority messages are always pushed to the beginning of the queue, so the latest priority message sent is always the first fetched by receive (even if other priority messages are already waiting).
If the call to receive does not handle type T (i.e., would leave the message waiting in the mailbox) and if T inherits Exception, receive throws the message directly.
If the call to receive does not handle type T and T does not inherit Exception, receive throws an exception of type PriorityMessageException!T. That exception holds a copy of the message sent in the form of a member called message.
If a thread exits via an exception, the exception OwnerFailed propagates to all of its owned threads by means of prioritySend. In the file copy program, main throwing also causes fileWriter to throw as soon as it calls receive, and the entire process terminates by printing an error message and returning a nonzero exit code. Unlike the normal termination case, there may be buffers in flight that have been read but not yet written.


The article, Elementary Electric Dipoles, by Ian N. Marshall recognizes that fundamental particles we know are electric monopoles and/or magnetic dipoles, but dark matter might contain the converse particles. Light electric dipoles, like neutrinos, could be abundant yet elusive. They would be attracted into polar substances (e.g. water) and strong electric fields, (e.g. in cell membranes), where they would alter dielectric constants. Experiments on five common substances after connection to a supposed biological source of these particles at field gradients of up to 8kV/cm confirmed these predictions.

In the Correspondence column of the fall/winter issue, Dana Ullman refers to the efficacy of homeopathy during the 1918 epidemic. However, there is another factor that I feel should be given more attention.
In 1921, The Journal of American Institute of Homeopathy published an article, "Homepathy in Influenza: A Chorus of Fifty in Harmony." In this piece, 50 doctors related their experiences during the epidemic.
"The more Aspirin, Codein, Dobell's solution and other extra-homeopathic remedies used, the slower the recovery."
"The mortality rate in a camp was for pneumonia 25.8%. The lieutenant in charge was persuaded to discontinue Aspirin, Digitalis and Quinine and the mortality dropped speedily to 15 %with no medicine whatever. This was one ward. Whereupon it was ordered in other wards and the mortality dropped to 15% with no medicine."
"I hardly ever lost a case if I got there first, unless the patient had been sent to a drug store and bought Aspirin, in which event I was likely to have a case of pneumonia on my hands."
J.P. Huff, MD, Olive Branch, Ky.
The unanimity of these reports, in the exceptional circumstances of this epidemic, leaves an uneasy feeling that the use of aspirin for influenza is one of the 'obvious' treatments of allopathy that has, in fact, no scientific basis and may be dangerous. Does anyone know if there have been any trials that might answer this question?
