Senior female soldier says Olympics proved women can fight alongside men in combat roles

Brigadier Nicky Moffat, 50, pictured, has urged defence chiefs to follow the U.S by lifting a ban on women serving in close combat roles
One of the Army's former top female officers has said that the London Olympics proved that women can fight alongside men on the front line.
Brigadier Nicky Moffat, who was widely tipped to become the first female general in British military history before she retired in December, urged defence chiefs to follow the U.S by lifting a ban on women serving in close combat roles.
Her views are in direct conflict with Major Judith Webb, another former senior Army female officer, who declared this week that women soldiers should not be allowed to fight on the front line because they are not fit enough.
U.S Defence Secretary Leon Panetta revealed on Thursday that up to 237,000 jobs were being opened up to the female ranks. They make up 15% of the U.S military.
Brigadier Moffat, 50, told BBC Radio 4 that it was right that combat troops had to meet 'extraordinarily demanding' physical standards in order to be approved for combat.
But she admitted to feeling 'deeply uncomfortable' that women were barred from even trying to pass those tests.
'It is not just about physical strength. It's about endurance, it's about ability to operate within a team, it's about a range of skills.
'We shouldn't dismiss the point about strength. The infantry combat fitness test is extraordinarily demanding and individuals are required to carry Herculean amounts of kit.
'But if we look at the achievements of our women Olympians I don't think any reasonable person could say that there aren't some women who could meet those standards.'
Women not fit enough to fight on the front line, says former... 'We don't shower for a month... and we're often naked': Male...
Women now allowed to serve on the front lines of military...
However, Major Webb told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: 'By opening it up to women, are women shooting themselves in the foot? Because they are not going to meet those standards.
'Two women who made it through marine training in the U.S didn't qualify.'
Brigadier Moffat said that the London Olympics proved that women can fight alongside men on the front line
'So what are we achieving by trying to open it up to women, except wasting a huge amount of resources by trying to train women up to a level I don't think they are going to meet.'
Germany, Australia and Canada allow female soldiers to enter close combat. But critics argue that money will be wasted training women who will not be able to meet the physical standards.
A Ministry of Defence spokesman said the situation would not be reviewed before the end of combat operations in Afghanistan, which are due at the end of next year.
He said: 'The vast majority of roles in the Armed Forces are open to women and hundreds are currently serving their country with distinction in Afghanistan.
'Women are fundamental to the operational effectiveness of the UK's Armed Forces, bringing talent and skills across the board.
Major Judith Webb, another former senior Army female officer, said earlier this week that women soldiers, pictured, are not fit enough to work on the front line
'The MOD 2010 review into women serving in combat roles concluded there should be no change to the existing policy.
'There are no plans to review this policy before the end of operations in Afghanistan.'
Brigadier Moffat stunned colleagues when she announced she was stepping down as the Armed Forces' head of pay and strategic manning at the Ministry of Defence in July 2012.
It came just days before ministers announced plans to slash the force's numbers. She handed in her notice after 26 years' service.
The Ministry of Defence said the situation would not be reviewed before the end of combat operations in Afghanistan at the end of next year


Matter reacts. Life adapts. Spirit creates.
With that, I have summarized the 14-billion-year cosmic process in three stages and just six words. I'm using the term 'stage' here less in its temporal sense than as a way of identifying distinct levels of complexity in the evolutionary architecture of our universe. True enough, energy first fused into matter, then stirred to life, and eventually awakened as spirit. But each preceding stage continued as foundation to subsequent ones, not just persisting underneath the others but taken up, incorporated, and transformed in the breakthroughs they represented.
You, for instance, are a rather remarkable synthesis of physical matter, animal life, and creative spirit. Your life is generated and sustained out of a deep economy of physical reactions going on in your body all the time. And as you move through the changing environments of your life, your body and mind are adapting so as to optimize your 'fit' to the way things are. The adaptation of life amounts to this constant quest for the niches where environmental stress is manageable, internal distress is minimized, and the opportunity for longevity and reproduction is greatest. Once life finds such niches, it settles in and makes itself at home.
And this is our problem as human beings. Whereas the material processes that keep us alive are autonomic and unconscious; and while slipping into a best fit with our surroundings is a preconscious preference for the path of least resistance; that aspect which makes us most uniquely human – our creative spirit – must operate in full awareness and by conscious choice. For this reason, habit, convention, custom, orthodoxy, and even morality as the rules that determine our social affections and behavior, can keep us so deep in our grooves that spirit has no chance of waking up.
If my reader ever wonders why I am so critical of orthodoxy (not only in religion) and the mental bypass of conviction which closes the mind to everything but its own absolute truth, this is why. As the theme of this blog is 'exploring creative change', my passionate interest is in that transforming process whereby human beings break through the constraints of family patterns, tribal traditions, belief systems, and identity contracts that keep us asleep.
My message is not that we need to trash them all, necessarily, or leave them behind and go it alone through life. When the creative spirit awakens in us, some of these things will be dropped off and left behind, as their authority is no longer required. But others, like that literal god who comes to life again as a literary figure and metaphor of the grounding mystery, can light up with fresh relevance and illumine the path ahead. Creative spirit awakens 'on the other side of god' and invites us to live in conscious awareness of our place in the unity of existence.
In an interesting way, each of those three stages in the cosmic process surpasses the one immediately preceding it by breaking (through) a law that would prevent its progress. Life has to overcome the stabilizing force of entropy which is constantly pulling matter down into more steady states of equilibrium. By self-replication, sexual reproduction, and social bonding, life pushes upwards against this law of matter and thereby secures for itself a higher stage of existence. Life's law is that niche-seeking survival mandate mentioned earlier: stay as deep inside those grooves of pleasure and avoid any pain that signals compromise, exposure, and a loss of security.
Habituate yourself to your surroundings, to the circumstances of your life, to the role-play and ideology of your tribe: that's what the preconscious law of life will have you do. It's safer inside the circle, where you can live closer to what you know and be assured of the resources you need to survive. Do what you're told, don't rock the boat, stay in line, wait your turn, look before you leap. If you're still alive, it must be working. Why tempt fate? What's the point in thinking outside the box, when the box contains all you need to know?
I could add more platitudes and proverbs of the status quo, but you probably have a pretty good feel for this law of adaptation that manages to keep so many of us spiritually asleep. If the creative spirit is to awaken in us, we will have to confront, break through, and rise above the trance of security and its delusion of meaning. The very identity that has been shaped for us by our taller powers and tribal handlers is now our greatest impediment, our most formidable obstacle to genuine liberty.
Just say to yourself, "I want to be free to live my own life, to follow my bliss, and realize the fullness of what I am" – merely let those words out of your mouth, and just as quickly will come rebuke and admonition for entertaining such a selfish fantasy. So insidious is this reproof against genuine self-actualization, that the script spins automatically inside your own head. What you don't understand is that this script, together with its sponsoring tribal ideology, is itself a fantasy, and a selfish one of the highest order.
After all, this is the center of identity known as ego, which is really a mechanism of social adaptation by which the tribal mind replicates itself in the individual. You were disciplined, shaped, and instructed to hold certain things as self-evidently true. That's just the way it is, you were told. Because I said so. It's in the Bible. Your brainwashing was nearly complete before your rational and critical-thinking prefrontal cortex could come online to help you see through much of this so-called wisdom. If you grew up in a strict religious household, then the everlasting consequence of god's judgment further secured your duty as carrier of your tribe's memetic code (i.e., the cultural analogue of our genetic code, but constructed out of memes rather than genes).
Needless to say, the creative spirit doesn't break (through) the rule of life in society as an act of belligerence, but as liberative and transpersonal, meaning that it breaks beyond the ego stage of consciousness and sets us free for a larger vision of where we really are, and where this great cosmic process is inviting us to go.


I'm a huge fan of BrowserStack. They are a cloud-based browser testing service that lets you remote into effectively any browser version on any version of any operating system. They've even got Visual Studio integration so you can just hit F5, choose the browser you want, and start debugging.
COUPON: BrowserStack is a service (a cloud of machines do the work) but you can get 3 months free from the IE folks at Modern.ie. To be clear: I'm not affiliated with either of these folks, just letting you know that it's cool. I do personally have a BrowserStack subscription that I pay for.
I've long been a proponent of integration testing websites by putting the browser on a string, like a puppet. I used Watir (Web Application Testing in Ruby) almost 10 (!) years ago, and write WatirMaker (and later WatirRecorder) to make that easier.
I also spent time with Selenium as early as 2007, although it was a very different Selenium than it is today. I also interviewed Jim Evans from the Selenium Team on my podcast.
Selenium today uses a "Selenium Server" and a "WebDriver." WebDrivers are language-specific bindings to drive a browser - to put strings on your browser and control it.
Now, there's dozens of choices to make and dozens of ways you can get Selenium working. With much respect due to the Selenium team, the docs on their main page spend a LOT of time talking about different versions, older versions, history of the project, and there's no real "Getting Started FAQ" with stuff like "I'm a Windows person, get this and this and that." Or "I'm on a Mac and like Ruby, just get this and this." There is a fairly extensive Wiki, though, but it's still a lot of terms to understand.
Do expect to spend a few hours exploring and messing up, but do know that there's a few dozen ways to be successful with Selenium, which is part of its charm.
First, you can write tests in whatever language you like. So, C#/NUnit, or Ruby, or Python, for example.
You can download "drivers" for a browser and run them directly, having them listen a port, and make them available to yourself or others in your company.
When writing tests, you can ask for browsers ("drivers") directly by asking for them from your test language of choice, like instantiating a "ChromeDriver" or an "IEDriver."
But, you can also launch a more general-purpose server that will present itself as a "WebDriver," then you give it a list of the capabilities you want and it will then find and drive a browser for you. This is what BrowserStack's cloud does. You can also set these up inside your own company, although it's a bit of a hassle.
There's 8 different OSes. 20 mobile devices, 300 browser/version combos. For the free automated trial you get 100 minutes of "drive time" free. Also, it's half the price if you only want desktop browsers.
I like to use Python for Selenium Tests, for some odd reason. Again, you can use whatever you like. Doesn't matter.
Get Python 2.7 - I'm on Windows and I got the x86 one.
Get setuptools for 2.7 - note the py2.7 in the file name.
Get the latest Pip for 2.7 - Note the py2.7 in the file name.
Then run "pip install -U selenium"
Your Python code might look like this. Here I'm using BrowserStack's cloud and asking for IE7 on Windows XP.
Note I have "browserstack.debug" on, so I can actually go to the BrowserStack site and see screenshots of each step!
If your site is only available at localhost, you can make a temporary tunnel and make is accessible to BrowserStack, as well. If you've got Chrome or Firefox, there are extensions to make this even easier.
I hope you check out both BrowserStack and Selenium, and perhaps consider how you're testing your site today (humans who click?) and if you could be more effective with different tools?
Ken - Great point! SauceLabs has a VERY similar offering that also does screenshots. I would encourage readers to try both!
I dunno why. It just feels better. I'll try the Ruby driver again.
Another wonderful post! Selenium and BrowserStack are truly great tools. Together they are a fantastic solution to automatically test web sites and applications. I've been a long time "lurker" and wanted to comment on this post just to say thanks.
If you are serious about cross-browser web application testing, you should take a closer look at Silk Test from Borland (happens to be the company, I am working for).
But seriously, if you are into testing advanced workflows (samples like Google search are always easy) and want easy-maintenance, stables scripts you will love Silk Test.
Also, you can have your test scripts in C# (or VB.NET ... or Java).
Just approach me if you need more info on Silk Test.
I just started using Watir a few weeks ago. Work was rather slow, so I decided to make myself useful by exploring some automated testing. The platform I work with, Demandware, isn't exactly conductive to unit/automated tests.
We just had an issue where order totals were not being calculated correctly. I've been able to start testing a few things automatically, and Watir's/Selenium's ability to read any element on the page is really great! I just wish it had the ability to read HTTP status codes.
I'm a big fan of BrowserStack too but you might as well forget it for testing internal Windows Authenticated sites. I was recently told that his was addressed but when testing on all of the browser types (Chrome, IE, Safari) they all appear to have trouble with the NTLM handshake. Sometimes it appears to work but then I'm prompted for every single request after the initial success. Figured I'd post this in case anyone were to purchase or get the trial.
Be careful when signing up/in to the browserstack website. Their main page containing the sign-up form is NOT SSL encrypted and something could potentially grab your typed-in sign-up username & password, or change the sign-up form posting URL to some malicious site.
Instead of the main page, click on the Sign In link or the Sign Up link at the top of the main browserstack site to be taken to SSL encrypted pages.
If you want to write your browser tests in C#, I highly recommend FluentAutomation. IMO it has a great fluent, easy to understand API and includes support for Selenium's WebDriver. Check out their Getting Started docs. I've used it in one of my projects and I was able to get it working faster than Selenium alone.
Another cool thing with BrowserStack is that if you have an internal website or programmatically start IIS Express during your tests, you can run their BrowserStackTunnel.jar file to create a tunnel that allows BrowserStack to access your non-public site. It's a great way to run smoke tests on your build server before deploying to a public location.
You can even record your Selenium tests using the Selenium IDE extension for FireFox. It can export the recorded steps into your favorite language (C#, Python, ect).
"You can redeem your offer anytime before January 10, 2014"
Great post!! Will consider browser stack for my next project as testing tool.
We were really looking forward to getting our hands dirty with BrowserStack. Unfortunately the price hike from $79 for 5 parallel tests to $199 WITH a FUP in place is insane. This has put the pricing out of what is acceptable for us and also we would break the FUP every single day.
Shame, I loved it when I used the free trial.
I agree, FluentAutomation is very easy to use. It also gives you the option of using PhantomJS so you can run "headless" tests. I'm not sure how it copes with automatic testing as I have been using Karma (formerly known as Testacular) which is blazing fast but if you are working on a full .NET project FluentAutomation seems to fit nicely.
Glad to see some people bring up FluentAutomation - we've got a nice community forming these days.
There is a lot of movement in the hosted cloud testing area right now from Selenium Grid deployments (SauceLabs) to fully custom solutions.
We're building F14N with the goal of tackling the overall issue of automated testing (test creation, maintainability, execution, etc).
We are currently using Jasmine on our own server for acceptance test and it's very unstable. For example Firefox update dialog can "brake" test. For legal reasons we cannot use something like BrowserStack.
Looks like I might have to try out browser stack in future projects.
Awesome to see it in Python.
If test automation is not a priority, then there is a nice www.testize.com service we have been using last few month and love it.
It offers an instant Cross-Mobile & Browser web testing, issue discovery and recommendation how to fix issues. It's free for casual testing and provide quite valuable results in a few seconds such as: spelling errors, broken links, recommendations how to optimize pages, etc.
It could be a good alternative for these who need something cheaper and focus on validation testing and site improvements.
We have been using it to test sites we develop for our clients and share results with them so customers could provide their comments, as service provides the visual annotations on the screenshots as well.
Ray - They are extending the free trial.
Brandon - I will check out your stuff!
@Justin We're working on the Windows Auth bug(affecting a few customers) with top priority, will notify you once it's fixed.
@Ray The modern.IE offer has been extended and currently available. I've also asked the modern.IE team to fix the message.
@Tom We've responded to your mail with details.
Hi Man i want to know do you need to buy their package before you can get username or keys?
It'll give you access to 100 minutes of Automate along with a unique username and access key.
Just wanted to point out that we at TestingBot provide the same automated and manual browser testing. We focus on delivering a pristine virtual machine for every test case and have a TestLab where people can upload tests.
If there are readers of this blog who want to try us out, please let me know and I'll give you a free 1-month small-team plan!
Scott -any updated on the IE11 + selenium story?

Slikok Creek Culvert Replacement
College Loop Road in Soldotna, AK
Slikok Creek is a tributary to the Kenai River. It is a nursery supporting several thousand early run Chinook, Coho and Sockeye spawning and rearing habitat. The confluence of Slikok Creek and the Kenai River is located near the Kenai Peninsula College, approximately 19 river miles upstream from the mouth at Cook Inlet. The creek begins as the outflow from Nordic Lake on the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge and provides many miles of spawning and rearing habitat for chinook, coho, and sockeye salmon. This habitat is classified as essential fish habitat by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS).
The creek is a low gradient, meandering creek. The stream has four road crossings: College Loop Road, Kalifornsky Beach Road, Sterling Hwy. and A.R.C. Loop Road. These road crossings were evaluated by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) in their 2000 effort to assess passage of juvenile salmonids. According to the ADF&G study, three of the four crossings act as barriers to upstream migrations, the worst being College Loop Road.
In the summer of 2003 and 2004 the Kenai Watershed Forum (KWF) more closely evaluated each of the three problem road crossings. It was clear that the College Loop Road presented the greatest potential to block juvenile anadromous fish. It is the furthest downstream, thus blocking the largest amount of habitat. It also created the most obvious deviation from the natural channel conditions. The crossing consisted of two culverts, one to pass the channelized flow through the road prism with a secondary overflow culvert for flood stage waters. Both culverts were improperly sized and placed to mimic the natural conditions present in the stream.
Because of the importance of this delicate nursery to the health of the early run chinook salmon run, we replaced the improperly sized culvert with a new much larger culvert that properly fits the natural conditions of the stream.

Daniel's Creek (Nikiski)
The culvert at this crossing had been so badly crushed that parts of it were sticking up through the road surface and it was too narrow compared to the normal width of the stream. To avoid the jagged culvert, drivers were illegally trudging through the salmon stream, destroying habitat for spawning and rearing.

This double workshop will present information on setting up intensive verbal behavior programs for students with autism spectrum disorder in classrooms. Specific topics will include the basics of applied behavior analysis (ABA) and in-depth information on the analysis of verbal behavior and its use in improving the language of students with autism. Participants will learn about considerations for selecting instructional goals for children with varying language abilities. Role-play opportunities will be included to practice specific teaching strategies and the data collection system.
This workshop will hone attendees' skills in using and developing video-based instruction for students with autism. This session will include specific information on preparing and using video modeling, video priming, video prompting and various hybrids, and extensions of these procedures. Attendees will also learn about developing video-based instructional approaches to target specific outcomes, including social skills, communication, engagement, and functional skills. Presenters will share existing technologies to address social-emotional learning with an emphasis on emotion recognition. At the end of this workshop attendees will be given guided practice in creating various instructional supports and will understand of the technology skills necessary to independently craft these materials for the students in their care.
Positive behavior support and functional behavioral assessment are both extensions of applied behavioral analysis and has a strong evidence base. Function based thinking integrates core concepts and components of both positive behavior support and functional behavioral assessment into a multi-tiered system of support to guide efficient and effective responses and interventions for all students. Individuals on the autism spectrum have unique skill deficits that can be directly taught, reinforced and sustained using this model of behavior support in school, community and home settings.
The best teachers are continuously engaged in the refinement of their programs and teaching practice. In this session, the presenter will share a model for teacher-directed program improvement based on a set of quality indicators for educational program for students with ASD and ID. Further, he will provide strategies derived from the research literature and his personal experience for facilitating and maintaining teacher-behavior change.
Students with autism spectrum disorders have a wide variety of needs within the school system. The needs of these students and limited school resources may often lead to a contentious relationship between the parents of the child and the local education agency. Not surprisingly, a vast amount of court cases heard in special education involve students with autism spectrum disorders. This presentation will give an update of case law specific to students with autism spectrum disorders with an emphasis on how schools can avoid common errors in conferring a FAPE to these students.
Despite the best efforts of schools and families, some students with ASD do not experience the same degree of success and personal fulfillment in adulthood compared to their nondisabled peers or to students who are receiving services under IDEA categories other than ASD. This presentation will explore what factors drive these differences and what variables lead to stronger adult outcomes.
Do you work with young adults who have a high potential for success but an unclear path to independence? Do you worry about their transition from high school to adulthood? This workshop will offer valuable strategies for achieving independence, including interventions for self-regulation and mindfulness. Learn how to avoid missteps and resolve ongoing challenges using evidence-based practices and the steps to creating a comprehensive plan to implement these tools in the workplace, for transportation, and in after-work settings. This workshop is a continuation of the keynote presentation.
This presentation will provide attendees with concrete steps on developing and implementing self-management strategies for students with autism. This will include information on goal setting, self-monitoring, and self-reinforcement interventions. Specific topics covered will include: examples of self-management materials currently at use in the classroom, information on specific prerequisite skills students need to access these treatments, scaffolds for students with autism and cognitive impairments, and guidelines for using these approaches together as a treatment package.
Students with autism may in engage in socially unacceptable sexual behavior, but also express interests in relationships and other aspects of sexuality. Unfortunately, special educators and related service providers receive little or no training in how to support sexuality education-related needs of their students with autism. This session will provide a framework for using evidence-based practices to prevent unacceptable sexual behavior, teach sexuality-related knowledge and skills, and respond to sexual expression by students with autism. Specific recommendations for dealing with inappropriate masturbation also will be presented.
For professional development to be effective and result in systematic implementation of evidence-based practices, administrative support and investment is required (Kucharczyk, S., Shaw, E., Smith Myles, B., Sullivan, L., Szidon, K., & Tuchman-Ginsberg, L. 2012). This training is designed for special education and building level administrators who will be supporting educators serving students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and complex learning needs. Participants will be provided with an overview of ASD, Structured Teaching and a classroom support tool that can be used to guide conversations regarding implementation.


Made by our master craftsmen.
Made by us. Made with soul.
AV Soul's workshop sits on the boundary of UNESCO World Heritage Site, Saltaire, Shipley, Yorkshire. Built in 1851 by Sir Titus Salt, its combination of quality housing, employment, recreation, and social services represented a landmark example of enlightened 19th century urban planning. The town's spirit of making and care of the people and the process of making, not forgetting the quality of what gets made, make for a perfect setting for our workshop.
We are fortunate to have a staff of highly skilled hand craftsmen, meaning craftsmanship of the highest quality is born in all the pieces of furniture we create.
The combination of BA honours degrees in furniture making and years of experience amongst the team means we can call upon centuries of traditional British craftsmanship to craft the highest quality materials into beautiful furniture.
The uniqueness of each piece of wood we work and the natural materials we use lend themselves to the creation of a living piece of furniture. Furniture with life and spirit. Whether your custom-made furniture demands the perfection found in nature, or the unique and messy chaos of untamed wood grain – our access to the finest natural sources for the materials we use allow us a mastery of all that nature blesses us with.
Specialist AV furniture is our thing. It has become our calling. Having done an apprenticeship with a local firm in Yorkshire who specialised in producing high-end furniture that was exported to Belgium & Germany, AV Soul's founder, Stuart, was quickly moved to the "specialist team" who concentrated on reproduction antique furniture.
Identifying an opportunity to use reclaimed timber to make bespoke furniture, Stuart's entrepreneurial spirit led him to start his own business – Stump – in 1998. In nurturing this highly successful niche business Stuart has grown and expanded, employing a 'family like' group of talented craftsmen – each reveling in the opportunity to bring customers design ideas to life.
Stuart and Stump soon grew a great reputation amongst the active and passionate community on AV forums. The rave reviews and noise generated by the community became Stump's calling. With each new piece of AV furniture created Stuart's team grew in knowledge and most importantly passion for creating the very best, perfect fit, custom-made AV furniture. With this calling – New shoots grew from Stump – and AV Soul was born.
The service I received was second to none. All I can say is thank you to them.

Un cabás o maletín médico es un maletín pequeño utilizado por los médicos de cabecera para transportar medicamentos y productos sanitarios. La Real Academia Española también lo define como una "especie de cartera en forma de caja o pequeño baúl, con asa, usada para llevar al colegio libros y útiles de trabajo."

Medicina
El cabás  es un maletín de material resistente, cuero generalmente, con un asa. La palabra tiene origen provenzal, cabas, del latín vulgar capacium, capazo o capacho (originalmente, en Francia, cesto que servía para llevar provisiones de boca). El cabás identifica en la imagen popular y literaria al médico que hace avisos a domicilio, al médico de cabecera.

La atención fuera de la consulta exige un mínimo de recursos a transportar "por si acaso" (las situaciones urgentes inesperadas en domicilio). Habitualmente el médico lo lleva en un maletín, en un cabás de uso personal.

El maletín puede ser específico para atender emergencias, tal y como existe en muchos centros de atención continuada, o de urgencias en atención primaria. El término cabás, no obstante, se reserva para el maletín personal del médico de cabecera, con el que acude a los domicilios, bien en avisos a demanda (incluyendo urgencias), bien para la atención a pacientes crónicos. El cabás contiene una mezcla de instrumentos médicos para la atención de rutina (fonendo y guantes desechables, por ejemplo) y material y medicamentos para emergencias (tubo de Guedel y adrenalina, por ejemplo).

Contenido de un maletín médico
El contenido del cabás, del maletín o del bolso del médico de cabecera, ha merecido atención normativa general (lo que debería llevar, para diagnóstico y tratamiento) y empírica a partir de cuestionario u observación directa (lo que lleva, lo que se utiliza y otros aspectos).

Se debe controlar la caducidad de los medicamentos y material estéril.

A list of must-see Super Bowl 2020 commercials
From Bostonians learning about "smaht pahk" to a Lexington company's first-ever Super Bowl commercial.
Hyundai's forthcoming Super Bowl LIV commercial stars Chris Evans, John Krasinski, Rachel Dratch, and David Ortiz. Hyundai
By Kevin Slane
The Super Bowl has long been much more than just a football game, with the spectacle and interest surrounding the halftime show and the Super Bowl commercials making it the premier television event in the United States. (Yes, even when the Patriots aren't part of it.)
While there will undoubtedly be plenty of surprise advertisements popping up during the big game, companies have begun to treat the lead-up to Super Bowl Sunday as its own advertising opportunity, releasing teasers and sometimes full commercials days or weeks beforehand.
With that in mind, we've put together an updating guide to the most interesting, impactful, and buzzworthy 2020 Super Bowl commercials, with a particular eye toward ads that Bostonians may enjoy.
Hyundai heads to Boston for its 'Smaht Pahk' commercial
Automaker Hyundai took to the South End for filming this Super Bowl spot, which features Newton native John Krasinski, Sudbury native Chris Evans, and Lexington native Rachel Dratch marveling (or should we say mahveling?) over the Hyundai Sonata's remote smart parking assist feature. Or, as the actors put it, "smaht pahk."
The trio aren't the only Bostonians to show up in the ad. Former Red Sox slugger David Ortiz pops in at the end, as does comedian Tony V and both Bob and Arthur Wahlberg.
Local shoe brand Saucony airs its first Super Bowl ad
Saucony will take a big step toward growing its national footprint with its first Super Bowl ad this year. The Lexington-based athletic shoe maker will air a 30-second spot about its efforts to develop a biodegradable shoe, which will be made from natural materials and renewable resources.
"What if the shoes we threw away actually went away?" a voiceover asks, as dozens, then hundreds of shoes begin floating in the air.
The Super Bowl teaser for 'A Quiet Place Part II' features an unexpected surprise
Ahead of Super Bowl Sunday, Paramount released a 30-second teaser for "A Quiet Place Part II" set to air during the pregame that features an unexpected surprise: John Krasinski.
Though Krasinski was involved in the film as a writer, producer, and director, it was unclear whether he would reprise his role in the sequel, because — spoiler alert — his character dies at the end of the first film. But as soon as the trailer begins, Krasinski is there, asking an officer what's going on mere seconds before one of the many-legged monsters featured in the first film leaps into frame.
John Cena and Jimmy Fallon hit the gym in Michelob Ultra Super Bowl ad
Working out next to actor, WWE superstar, and West Newbury native John Cena would be hard for anyone, so it's understandable when Jimmy Fallon complains about going to the gym in Michelob Ultra's Super Bowl ad. Thankfully, Cena gets Fallon to see "the lighter side of things," with a montage of Fallon doing all sorts of physical activities featuring athlete cameos like sprinter Usain Bolt, golfer Brooks Koepka, and volleyball players Kerri Walsh Jennings and Brooke Sweat.
Tom Brady trolls fans with Hulu Super Bowl ad
"They say all good things must come to an end."
That's the voiceover from Tom Brady as he walks into a football stadium at the beginning of Hulu's Super Bowl ad, briefly raising the blood pressure of Patriots fans everywhere.
"So to my teammates, my family, and my fans, you deserve to hear this from me," Brady continues. "Hulu doesn't just have live sports."
Brady raised speculation about his football future with an ambiguous Instagram post Friday evening, but it turned out to simply be a promo for the ad, which highlighted the streaming company's bonafides.
At the end of the ad, Brady made clear he wasn't ready to step away from the game just yet.
"So it's time to say goodbye to TV as you know it," Brady concludes. "But me? I'm not going anywhere."
Bill Murray reprises "Groundhog Day" role for Jeep Super Bowl ad
Jeep saw an opportunity with the Super Bowl being held on Groundhog Day, enlisting Bill Murray, Stephen Tobolowsky, and other cast members of the 1992 movie "Groundhog Day" for their big game commercial. While Murray is still stuck reliving the same day over and over in Punxsutawney, Penn., he finds life more enjoyable driving a Jeep.
Bill Nye makes a cameo in SodaStrem's Super Bowl ad
Water on Mars? That type of exciting discovery unites the world's scientists in excitement, including Bill Nye, the onetime PBS personality. Unfortunately, the sample quickly disappears when a scientist makes bubbly water using his SodaStream.
Mr. Peanut is back from the dead in Super Bowl spot from Planters
Planters faced some blowback for their Super Bowl campaign, which began last week with the death of longtime mascot Mr. Peanut. The death of Kobe Bryant caused the company to press pause on the rollout of their campaign, but the Super Bowl ad remained unchanged, with the tears of the Kool-Aid Man reincarnated the buried mascot as Baby Peanut.
Jason Momoa reveals his "true self" in Rocket Mortgage Super Bowl ad
In an ad for Rocket Mortgage, actor Jason Momoa ("Aquaman") let viewers know that he can be his "true self" at home — then he removed a muscle suit and a wig, revealing his "true" skinny bald guy underneath.
Charlie Day puts off laundry day in Tide Super Bowl spot
After actress Emily Hampshire ("Schitt's Creek") stains "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" star Charlie Day's shirt, he wonders when he'll have time to wash his shirt during the big game. In the process, he joined the halftime show, another brand's Super Bowl commercial, and a broadcast of "The Masked Singer."
WeatherTech CEO thanks veterinarians who saved his dog's life with Super Bowl ad
Last year, vehicle accessories company WeatherTech ran a Super Bowl ad featuring Scout, a golden retriever owned by CEO David MacNeil. Later that year, Scout was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer and was given one month to live. But an experimental procedure conducted at University of Wisconsin-Madison's veterinary school saved Scout's life, and MacNeil is thanking the school by purchasing an ad for it and promoting a fundraising campaign for the school.
"We wanted this year's Super Bowl effort to not only raise awareness but also financial support for the incredible research and innovative treatments happening at the UW School of Veterinary Medicine, where Scout is still a patient," MacNeil said in a press release.
The NFL's 2020 Super Bowl commercial includes a slew of players
The NFL went big for its Super Bowl ad last year, bringing together more than 40 current and former players like Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski to kick off its celebration of 100 years of the league.
The league released its new Super Bowl ad prior to kickoff, and this year's edition features a bevy of NFL stars including current Patriots receiver Julian Edelman and former Patriots quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo.
Microsoft Super Bowl ad showcases Katie Sowers, the first woman to coach in a Super Bowl
In a new 60-second ad set to air during the big game, Microsoft chronicles the journey of San Francisco 49ers offensive assistant Katie Sowers, from her days as a young girl dreaming of "being on a real football team" to her current role, which makes her the first woman to coach in a Super Bowl.
In an interview during Super Bowl media week, Sowers said she hoped to pave the way for other women to join the profession.
"I feel like a broken record, but what I want to continue to say is that, even though I'm the first, the most important thing is I'm not the last and we continue to grow it," Sowers said.
Molly Ringwald shows her love for avocados in quirky Super Bowl spot
Guess we know what one member of "The Breakfast Club" eats for breakfast.
Actress Molly Ringwald, best known for her roles in '80s teen movies like "The Breakfast Club" and "Pretty in Pink," is the star of a Super Bowl advertisement for Avocados from Mexico that showcases some truly weird avocado accessories.
Posing as an employee of Avo Network, Ringwald showcases products like an avocado helmet, an avocado yurt, and a music box that plays your avocado's favorite songs.
Google tugs at heartstrings with Super Bowl ad
There's always at least one Super Bowl ad that leaves people misty-eyed, and this year's Google ad just might do the trick.
In "Loretta," a showcase of the company's Google Assistant, an 85-year-old grandfather uses Google to help remember his late wife. By the end of the commercial, Google Assistant remembers that Loretta's favorite flowers were tulips, she used to hum showtunes, and she had the most beautiful handwriting, among other things.
"'Loretta' reflects our goal to build products that help people in their daily lives, in both big and small ways," Google's chief marketing officer Lorraine Twohill wrote in a blog post. "Sometimes that's finding a location, sometimes it's playing a favorite movie, and sometimes it's using the Google Assistant to remember meaningful details."
Sam Elliott channels his inner Lil Nas X in Doritos' Super Bowl spot
Sam Elliott has proved for years in ads for companies like Coors and Ram Trucks that just about anything sounds cool when spoken in his deep, distinct voice. Doritos took that theory to the logical extreme in a teaser for its Super Bowl spot, putting Elliott in an old western bar while having him narrate the lyrics to Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road." In a spot released Wednesday, the pair headed out to the dusty street for a dance-off.
The pain of forgetting your password is very real in Dashlane's Super Bowl commercial
We all know the feeling: You have to log in to do something important, but you forget your password. In a Super Bowl spot for password manager Dashlane, one man is on the brink of entering heaven if he can only remember his password. As the hooded grim reaper prompts him with more and more security questions, eternal damnation becomes an unfortunate, albeit hilarious reality.
In Amazon's Super Bowl ad, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi ponder the history of Alexa
After using Amazon's Alexa to turn down the thermostat as they leave the house, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi ponder what the commerce company's virtual assistant was like throughout history, leading to a hilarious montage of servants and companions throughout history.

So this isnt Ubuntu related (directly) but I used to have a 1974 VW bus. White on the top half, Smurf blue on the bottom half. This was one of my favorite vehicles and I used it in the 1990s to travel extensively throughout California.
Volkswagon is releasing their bus as (apparently) an all electric car that can reach approx 200 miles per charge (320km). Sounds good, but thats where it ends for me since I love Ubuntu. Their plan is to use an ipod to power the stereo system. Why not go open source? This would have been a perfect opportunity to make the switch.
Yah, maybe it is a bit ugly, but would that be so cool if you hopped into your new VW microbus and up popped Ubuntu? VW dropped the ball by not going open source IMO.
If you still want Ubuntu in your car it is now possible. Check it out! It looks nicer than mine 🙂 But maybe they used my idea as a basis? Who knows. Good luck boys!

Q: Find a directory in Android Studio Project not in the phone I am trying to get access to a text file (log.txt) in a directory. All other questions on this topic refer to getting directories from the emulators internal storage.
My file structure is as such
>androidApp
->App
-->Build
-->src
--->game_log
---->log.txt
--->Main
---->(Android app Code further)

Using new File(System.getProperty("user.dir) + "app\\src\\game_log\\log.txt").exists() gets me false.
Another thing I tried was System.getProperty("user.dir") but that yields me /.
Contextwrapper.getPath() gets me the path of the emulators storage.
Is the file structure of Android Studio different or I am using the wrong method to get the file from my project folder?

Hugh Jackman wins Guinness World Record and it is his dreams come-true
The star of The Greatest Showman , who recently wowed viewers at the 2019 Brit Awards , has become a holder for a record – and it's very well-deserved.
On Wednesday February 20, Hugh Jackman was presented with one of two Guinness World Records by presenter Alison Hammond – as he is the longest-serving actor to portray a Live-Action Marvel Superhero, having portrayed Wolverine/Logan from the original X-Menfilm in 2000 to his final film Logan in 2017, meaning he played the role for 16 years and 228 days.
But he wasn't alone, as his fellow mutant co-star Sir Patrick Stewart also received the record and left a video message for Hugh too.
"Hi, Hugh my dear," said Stewart. "I have discovered that you and I are now in the Guinness Book of World Records . Congratulations, my friend. There's another thing to hang on your wall".
Stewart played the role of Professor Charles Xavier for the same length of time as Jackman.
Jackman played the adamantium-clawed hero in nine films: the original X-Men trilogy, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, X-Men: First Class, The Wolverine , X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men: Apocalypse , and Logan.
Stewart appeared as Xavier in the original X-Men trilogy, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, The Wolverine, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and Logan.
A younger iteration of Xavier has been portrayed by James McAvoy in the prequel X-Men films and will reprise the role in the upcoming X-Men: Dark Phoenix.

Surviving the Flood
On a Sunday in late August 2011, New England and New York were hit hard by Tropical Storm Irene. Many inches of rain fell in a very short time period. The Slate Valley Museum is situated close to the Mettowee River in Granville, NY. As a result of the storm, SVM was soon flooded with about three feet of water. The beautiful slate floors were damaged as well as the walls and some of the archives. Volunteers arrived early the next morning to haul out water and start the process of drying out and cleaning the museum. We are still recovering from this horrific event. The Slate Valley Museum staff and Board of Trustees are so thankful to the entire community who reached out to us in our time of need. We would also like to thank the Village of Granville for their support in the recovery process.
Please consider donating to the Slate Valley Museum. We have come a long way since August 2011. So far, we have replaced the walls that were cut away to prevent mold growth. We have also had the floors professionally cleaned and restored. Archives that were damaged by flood waters have been cleaned and treated by a conservator.
For resources and help after a disaster, click here.
The Slate Valley Museum was recently recognized by Museumwise, an association of New York museums, at their conference in Albany. The organization surprised Slate Valley Museum Staff and Board of Directors with this Certificate of Recognition, who are most thankful for being recognized for how they recovered from the effects of flooding in late August 2011. For pictures of the damage, please visit Surviving the Flood.


With the 2020 presidential election already underway, 57 percent of registered voters said they would definitely vote against President Donald Trump, according to the latest poll from the PBS NewsHour, NPR and Marist.
Although the election is still nearly two years away, the large number of voters who oppose Trump as well as his low approval ratings suggest the president faces a "steep, steep incline" in winning re-election, said Lee Miringoff, the director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion.
"The president has had his base and not much else," Miringoff added.
But who would Republicans want to see run against Trump?
According to the poll, 29 percent of Republicans and conservative-leaning Independents said they felt favorable about Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, the 2012 Republican presidential nominee. Another 24 percent said they thought well of former Ohio Republican Gov. John Kasich — but 48 percent of potential Republican voters had no idea who Kasich was, a sign of the challenges most GOP candidates would have in taking on a sitting president from their own party.

Q: delete dataframe by index from other dataframe I have two dataframe df1 and df2. I want to delete data from df2 based on the index from df1.
import pandas as pd
df1=pd.DataFrame({'index':[1,2,3,4],
                 'names':['andi','andrew','jhon','andreas']})
df2=pd.DataFrame({'index':[1,2],
                 'names':['andi','andrew']})

expected output
index,names
3,jhon
4,andreas

A: If need remove rows by index values use DataFrame.drop:
df = df1.drop(df2.index)
print (df)
   index    names
2      3     jhon
3      4  andreas

If need remove values by columns called index use Series.isin with boolean indexing and inverting mask by ~:
df = df1[~df1['index'].isin(df2['index'])]
print (df)
   index    names
2      3     jhon
3      4  andreas

Or create index by both columns by DataFrame.set_index and use first solution:
df = df1.set_index('index').drop(df2.set_index('index').index)
print (df)
         names
index
3         jhon

The Xiaomi Mi Note 3 has a 5.5 inch 1920 x 1080 px IPS LCD display with a pixel density of 403ppi and a 94.4 percent NTSC colour gamut. The smartphone is powered by a 3,500 mAh battery with QuickCharge 3.0 through USB TYpe C port and runs Android 7.1.1 Nougat with Xiaomi's custom MIUI 9 on top. Xiaomi has boasted about the phone's 'Adaptable AI Beautify' feature, which the Chinese smartphone maker claims is a result of over half a year's R&D. The feature uses AI-based algorithms to beautify selfies and has a different algorithm for men and women. Under the hood, the Xiaomi Mi Note 3 has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chipset, 6GB RAM, and 64GB or 128GB onboard storage options. The onboard storage can not be expanded. The fingerprint sensor is placed under the glass at the front device, just below the display.
In the camera department, unlike the Mi Mix 2, the Mi Note 3 features a dual-camera setup at the back. The primary 12MP camera has a wide angle lens and an f/1.8 aperture and the secondary 12MP camera has a telephoto lens with an f/2.6 aperture. This setup is similar to a lot of dual-camera smartphones and offers 2X lossless zooming capabilities. It also has features such as Bokeh effect shots and a portrait mode very similar to the one on the iPhone 7 Plus. The front facing camera has a 16MP sensor with a 2-micron pixel size.
The Xiaomi Mi Note 3 price starts at CNY 2,499 (Rs. 24,500 approx.) for the 6GB RAM/64GB storage variant, CNY 2,899 (Rs. 28,300 approx.) for the 6GB RAM/128GB storage variant in Black, and CNY 2,999 (roughly Rs. 29,400) for the 6GB RAM/ 128GB inbuilt storage variant in Blue. As is the case with the Mi Mix 2, there is no word on the Mi Note 3's availability in the global market yet.

Magnolia Church in Riverside, CA, recently changed their church management software, and were faced with losing their HVAC integration as a result. But then they discovered Events2HVAC.
The return on investment (ROI) for most energy efficiency initiatives is measured in years, but this one is measured in months.
Software is often used to track energy use and perform energy analysis. But the Carolina Union uses it to eliminate heating and cooling empty rooms between events – with a direct impact on the bottom line.
Events2HVAC has several features specifically designed to increase confidence and allow flexibility in how facility managers choose to integrate their systems. Recently, Jim Urbanski, Energy Manager at Wicomico County Public Schools, described how he implemented Events2HVAC and tailored it to his specific needs.
When Jim Urbanski, Energy Manager at Wicomico County Public Schools in Maryland, participated in an online demonstration of Events2HVAC, he knew implementation would be easy. After studying the setup manual for just one hour, he began working and in just two days he had 160 rooms setup for automatic scheduling.
Last year, Jim Urbanski, Energy Manager at Wicomico County Public Schools in Maryland, spent 20 hours each week scheduling heating and air conditioning for after-school events. This year he spends just 20 minutes to schedule two weeks of events. That is a 99% reduction in labor hours, and he isn't done yet.
Appalachian State University tested Events2HVAC in 20 rooms in their student union and found that the electricity savings alone resulted in a return on investment of only five months. How much can your building or campus save on electricity, heating/cooling fuel, and labor combined?
The Washington State Department of Ecology is using Events2HVAC as one component in a building automation effort designed to significantly reduce their carbon footprint. Oh, and they will save a lot of money too.
Wayne Pearse, Director of Building Services for Memorial Unions at the University of Kansas, describes his 10 years of experience with event automation using Events2HVAC and it's predecessor, EMS Scheduler.
Susan Hall has peace of mind because she no longer spends hours each week scheduling air conditioning for events already in the church calendar or worries about a family attending a funeral in a hot sanctuary.
Jamie Schools, Executive Director of Administration at Legacy Christian Church in Overland Park, Kansas, uses Events2HVAC to save time and energy by automating HVAC based on individual room schedules. Schools oversees facilities, finance, safety and security, and human resources for all of three of Legacy's campuses – and they are soon adding a fourth campus. For him, Events2HVAC is a blessing.
At Savannah Christian Church in Savannah, GA, employees and church members are scheduling their own space using Dean Evans EMS® Professional, and Events2HVAC is automatically controlling their HVAC systems so that air is conditioned appropriately only when rooms are in use. They are saving energy and labor, and the automation has freed the facility manager to focus on other responsibilities.
Jeff Goebel, Physical Plant Manager at Minnesota State University at Moorhead (MSUM), knew there had to be a better way. He wanted an easier way for his employees to control HVAC equipment across campus. He heard about a software solution called Events2HVAC at a conference and looked it up online. In May 2010, MSUM became a beta test site for the software which works as a bridge between room scheduling software and building control systems to automatically control equipment based on scheduled events. The results have been impressive.


It really has been a long time. I mean, I guess things are pretty good? I'm just finished the first year of my masters degree so that was fun. I've started opening Topaz to see if there's been anything every now and again, which has kinda been nice. I don't know, things are pretty good. What about you?
Fine as can be asked for I guess. Life can be very busy sometimes.
Decently. I'm super busy, which has been nice, but unfortunate for Topaz. Haven't had the time or motivation to do much for here and it makes me sad. But overall, things are well.
Lol, what recent sprite work? I haven't done any real spriting in forever... just haven't found the time or energy to do much.
Sorry for the friend request rejection, I just really don't want people looking at my friends list and drawing conclusions.


IHG Rewards Club, the loyalty program of the InterContinental Hotels Group, has released its latest list of PointBreaks hotels that are now available for booking for just 5,000 IHG Rewards points per night.
Beginning on October 30, IHG Rewards members can book award nights for 5,000 points at 97 participating hotels, for stays between October 30, 2017, and January 31, 2018.
The new list includes 64 hotels in the U.S., 16 in the rest of the Americas, eight in Europe, seven in Asia, one in the Middle East, and one in Africa. There are no InterContinentals on the list.
IHG Rewards members may book a maximum of two PointBreaks stays at any one hotel.
With normal IHG Rewards award prices ranging between 10,000 and 60,000 points per night, the PointBreaks rates represent a discount of at least 50 percent. The value proposition is unarguably a compelling one.
As far as sheer numbers go, the current list of just 97 participating properties is among the shortest ever. Two quarters ago, there were 131 PointBreaks hotels, and the quarter before that featured 127. Both, however, were a significant downgrade from the PointBreaks roster of several quarters ago, which included 210 hotels, including 142 in the U.S. alone. That, sadly, is the long-term trend.

Q: SQL Command not properly ended ( oracle 11g for windows) I m using this query to get a result of the difference between the start time and end time of an activity. Where the end time is null i wanted to put the minimum value as 500. Please advice and HELP!!
select * from table
   where (end_time - start_time) * 24 * 60 > 1,
  IF end_time IS NULL THEN '500';

A: So this is your query:
select * from table where (end_time - start_time) * 24 * 60 > 1;

But you want to treat a null end_time as 500. So use NVL or COALESCE to replace the null with 500:
select * from table where (nvl(end_time,500) - start_time) * 24 * 60 > 1;

A:
IF end_time IS NULL THEN '500';

Just to make it more clear, '500' is not a number rather a string since it is enclosed within single quotation marks.
Now, end_time is. DATE data type or a timestamp, ideally. So, 500 makes no sense. You must convert it to appropriate type, whether 500 is days, hours, minutes, seconds, fraction of a second.
As in other answer it is suggested to use NVL(end_time, 500), it makes no sense. What does 500 - a date mean? Applying NVL is the need, however, you must convert it to the required value, else those are two different data types and Oracle won't allow it.
UPDATE
In my opinion,

Difference between two dates gives the number of days to the precision of seconds converted back to days. But, difference between an arbitrary number and a date makes no sense.

A: I assumed that start_time and end_time columns have number as datatype, for this calculation you need to select these specific columns and not all (*). Comparison is in where clause, this works in oracle11.

select ((NVL(END_TIME, 500)-START_TIME) * 24 * 60) from TABLE_NAME where ((NVL(END_TIME, 500)-START_TIME) * 24 * 60) > 1;

9 Aurigae, som är stjärnans Flamsteed-beteckning, är en trippelstjärna i den norra delen av stjärnbilden Kusken, som också har variabelbeteckningen V398 Aurigae. Den har en genomsnittlig kombinerad skenbar magnitud på ca 4,98 och är svagt synlig för blotta ögat där ljusföroreningar ej förekommer. Baserat på parallaxmätning inom Hipparcosuppdraget på ca 38,0 mas, beräknas den befinna sig på ett avstånd på ca 86 ljusår (ca 26 parsek) från solen. Den rör sig närmare solen med en heliocentrisk radialhastighet på ca –0,9 km/s.

Egenskaper
Primärstjärnan 9 Aurigae A är en gul till vit stjärna i huvudserien av spektralklass F5 V. Den har en massa som är ca 2,0 solmassor, en radie som är ca 1,6 solradier och utsänder ca 6 gånger mera energi än solen från dess fotosfär vid en effektiv temperatur på ca 7 000 K.

9 Aurigae, eller V398 Aurigae, är en pulserande variabel av Gamma Doradus-typ (GDOR), som varierar mellan visuell magnitud +4,93 och 5,03 med en period av 1,2582 dygn. Den var en av de första Gamma Doradus-variablerna som upptäcktes. Denna stjärntyp varierar i ljusstyrka på grund av icke-radiella pulseringar.

9 Aurigae är ett system med flera stjärnor. 9 Aurigae A är en enkelsidig spektroskopisk dubbelstjärna. Endast signaturen för en stjärna av spektraltyp F i huvudserien kan ses i spektrumet, men den periodiska dopplerförskjutningen av absorptionslinjerna visar att det finns en dold följeslagare med en omloppsperiod på 391,7 dygn.

Fyra andra följeslagare till 9 Aurigae listas i flera stjärnkataloger, som alla anses vara förbundna följeslagare på samma avstånd från solen som 9 Aurigae A. Den närmaste följeslagaren är en röd dvärg av 12:e magnituden separerad med 5 bågsekunder från primärstjärnan. Separerad med 90 bågsekunder ligger 9 Aurigae C, en stjärna av 9:e magnituden med spektralklass K5 Ve, som också kan vara en spektroskopisk dubbelstjärna. Än mer separerad ligger en stjärna av 14:e magnituden, 9 Aurigae D, som anses vara en mer avlägsen röd jätte. Den mest separerade följeslagaren är 9 Aurigae E, en annan avlägsen stjärna.

Welcome to the Lenguaventura-Diary 2005!
Yesterday was a very long day for some of our incoming teens but I am sincere when I say that they all behaved incredibly well although they arrived late and tired. Becky and Stefan lost their suitcases and I have just heard the good news that one has arrived and hopefully will be arriving at midnight. For the other one we will stay in contact with the company to get the suitcase as fast to Tarifa as possible. Study spanish in spain with Lenguaventura.
This morning the teens started their first Spanish class together with a sightseeing tour thru Tarifa. As it was a perfect beach day we went afterwards to the beach. Tomorrow we will show you some pictures we took and some comments from several teens.
Furthermore from Tuesday on we will be prepared to present you every evening the up dated diary. You will not only know the other teens who spend their holidays with your kid/kids but we will also present our teachers and instructors.
Also from tomorrow on the computer room in the Campus will be open for the teens to send and receive e-mails.
We are at your disposal for any question you may have and hope that this virtual participation will please you.
