Editor's note: In a state where unemployment is low and the economy is booming, nearly a third of Weld County residents struggle to make ends meet. Many have multiple jobs, but factors like low pay, high living cost or a lack of a support system can eat away at anyone's resources. These stories highlight residents who are living life on the edge between poverty and success, and the people and organizations in Weld County who can help them keep from dropping off that edge.
The federal poverty line for a family of four in the contiguous 48 states is $25,100 in annual income. For a family with a single bread-winner, that's roughly $12 per hour in salary … for a 40-hour-per-week job.
A family with two (or more) paychecks coming in can dip below that hourly figure for each and get above the poverty line. Yet, even then, you can be significantly above that poverty line and still be struggling mightily financially.
Indeed, anything within shouting distance of the poverty level still can mean: No car.
No car, plus no insurance, no registration and license plates, no repairs and — yes — reliance on publicly owned mass transportation instead.
Plus, even those with cars can decide for both economic and environmental reasons that mass transit is the way to go for commuting to and from work or for getting around, period.
Around here, that almost exclusively means Greeley Evans Transit, the area bus system that operates under the City of Greeley umbrella. The cost to use the publicly owned mass transit is eminently reasonable, even when weighed against the most basic of private vehicle options.
Will Jones is the City of Greeley's deputy public works director and will serve as interim transit manager until Jan. 10.
A new $3.3 million GET Regional Transportation Center at 11th Avenue and A Street opened in September 2017. With its lobby and waiting areas, it has been a considerable improvement over the previous scattered transfer system. About 80 percent of the cost for the project came from a state grant.
An annual GET pass goes for $240, and that's considerably cheaper than going month-to-month, which would be about $600. For a family with that $25,100 annual income, the single bus ticket would be represent slightly less than one percent of the budget.
District 6 students (or anyone 18 and younger) can ride GET for free, and there are stops for Greeley Central High, Greeley West High, Northridge High, Frontier Academy and the University Schools.
Under an intergovernmental agreement, the school district pays GET $60,000 per year.
District 6 has cut and has looked to reinstate some of its own bus lines, primarily because of a driver shortage, so its route system is fluid.
But the GET partnership, for example, enables high school students to get home following after-school activities — if they don't run too late.
Also, GET's free "Boomerang" route threads through the UNC campus. So once riders arrive at the campus, they can negotiate through campus for free.
During a recent ride "out" and "back" on the No. 1 route, students got on and off at all the high schools as final exams for the first semester were winding down.
Ricardo Venegas, 17, boarded in the downtown area and disembarked at Northridge.
Also, a special ADA Paratransit free pass is available for those with certified disabilities.
Crystal Wilson is a 2012 Greeley Central High graduate and now a student at Aims Community College. She was headed from downtown to Food King.
GET has six numbered, or "fixed," routes.
"I'm proud of what our drivers and our staff do," said Jones. "There's always an opportunity to do more and better.
Monday through Friday: 6:05 a.m. to 7:41 p.m.
Saturday: 7:35 a.m. to 5:14 p.m.
Monday through Friday: 6:35 a.m. to 7:27 p.m.
Saturday: 7:35 a.m. to 5:27 p.m.
Monday through Friday: 6:35 a.m. to 7:24 p.m.
Saturday: 7:35 a.m. to 5:24 p.m.
Rodarte Center – North Colorado Medical Center – Greeley Mall.
Monday through Friday: 6:35 a.m. to 7:21 p.m.
Saturday: 7:35 a.m. to 5:21 p.m.
Monday through Friday: 6:15 a.m. to 7:20 p.m.
Saturday: 7:15 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Monday through Friday: 6:00 a.m. to 8:17 p.m.
Saturday: 6:45 a.m. to 6:27 p.m.
Monday-Wednesday-Friday: 7:45 a.m. to 3:39 p.m.
Tuesday and Thursday: 7:42 a.m. to 2:32 p.m.
Jones said that GET surveyed other markets and adjusted its fares in 2014.
The downside of the GET system jumps out.
The latest any of the routes run is 8:21 p.m.
That's one of the major differences between GET and systems in larger markets, such as Denver. Work the night shift in the Greeley area, and riding the bus home isn't an option.
Jones said that in 2016, GET put together a strategic plan after surveying public priorities.
"There are always tons of requests, but they're limited by dollars and cents, right?" Jones said. "The biggest thing we heard from the public input process … was regional service. So that's what we're focusing our efforts on. In January 2020, we'll be providing regional services in a partnership with Fort Collins, Windsor and CDOT.
Jones said that Greeley-Windsor-Fort Collins regional route will have four trips in the morning and three in the afternoon.
Alternatives to riding GET are few, including getting rides from co-workers while perhaps sharing expenses, or using the peer-to-peer ride services, Uber and Lyft, on a very selective basis.
Writer Emily Kemme detailed the Uber/Lyft ride experience in Greeley in the Nov. 4 Tribune. The attraction usually is portrayed to be convenience, or even safety after a few hours with friends at a brew pub and/or after GET has shut down for the night. The prices for the service arguably are reasonable. Yet more than occasional use can quickly eat away at a tight transportation budget. The sliding and shamelessly opportunistic price schedule — in short, the high-traffic, rush-hour times cause the fares to look as if someone just hit 3x on the calculator — can add to the pain.
To some, this might seem unrealistic, but even the most budget-conscious can keep Uber and Lyft in mind as an occasional alternative, especially when speed and convenience are factored in. Trying to get home before the kids arrive? Isn't that worth a few extra bucks?
The catch is both services require smartphones and credit or debit cards as the forms of payment.
Taxi services in the Greeley area seem to close more often than restaurants, so we won't even bring them into play here.

Vätterleden er navnet på motorvejen (vej E4) mellem Jönköping og Ödeshög. Vejen blev indviet etapevist i 1960, 1964 og 1972. Vejen går langs med søen Vättern og går nær vandet sammen med klipperne. Vejen regnes som en af Sveriges smukkeste motorveje. Omkring Gränna går den højt over Vättern med meget fin udsigt. Her er den en af Sveriges højeste beliggende motorveje, cirka 280 meter over havet og 190 meter over Vättern.

Ved Vätterleden ligger også de meget besøgte rastepladser Gyllene Uttern og Brahehus med udsigt over Vättern.

Dokumentarfilm
På 60-årsdagen for indvielsen af første etape, den 13. december 2020, fik en timelang nyproduceret dokumentarfilm om vejens bygning, Filmen om Vätterleden, premiere. Filmen er i høj grad baseret på en smalfilmsamling som vejingeniør Gösta Mellström filmede af privat interesse, samt interviews med chefkontrollant Jöran von Platen og projektør Åke Pettersson, som alle tre var aktive ved Vätterledens bygning.

Ah, how priceless is that moment when your wedding ceremony and reception are finally over, all the guests have left and you are about to board the plane and depart for your honeymoon. There is nothing that beats that feeling, especially if you were lucky enough to afford some luxurious destination. But, to enjoy the tropical paradise and romantic spots, you don't have to leave our great country! Instead, forget about the wedding planning stress that you have been faced with in the last few months, and book your room in some of the most popular US honeymoon spots in 2019. And no – not all of them will break the bank, so stay tuned!
After joining your lives in holy matrimony, the time is right to celebrate!
How exotic do these names sound? If you can't afford to honeymoon in Hawaii, don't exasperate. There will be plenty of time to visit it in the future. For now, you have a plethora of other, more affordable options!
Have you always pictured your honeymoon on some tropical beach? Would you like to lay around all day long on a white sandy beach, overlooking the turquoise waters and working on your tan? Well, if you add beautiful sunsets in cotton candy colors to that description, you get Sarasota, FL. With an average nightly hotel price being $162, and with slightly over 50,000 residents, this Florida city will amaze you with its livelihood, as well as affordability. And that's more than enough for Sarasota to become one of the best destinations for honeymooners in US.
The sunsets in Sarasota, FL are truly a marvelous sight!
While you get to bask in the glorious sun during the day, you will get a chance to lead a rich social and cultural life after the sunset. From ballets to jazz concerts and theatrical performances, the life in Sarasota will amaze you. So, what are you waiting for? Don't dwell too much on packing, and just throw in a few floral shirts, your bathing suit, and some comfy shoes. That's all you'll need to enjoy your days in this piece of heaven that is right at your fingertips.
Admit it – never in a million years would you think that Massachusetts could be a great honeymoon destination. But, the fact is that this state has plenty to offer, starting with Cape Cod. Granted, the beaches here may not be something you see only in movies and travel magazines, but you are trying to have a romantic getaway while being on a budget. And for that purpose, Cape Cod will be perfect. Feel the serenity that only a place such as this one can offer, and enjoy the beautiful restaurants that grace the streets.
And if you ever get bored during those ten days of your honeymoon, you can always take a field trip. Ever heard about the majestic city that Boston is? Well, it will certainly provide you with plenty of fun, and plenty of places to see. But, beware – you wouldn't be the first family to consider relocating to Massachusetts after visiting it. This state is simply too good to pass, and you might find yourself faced with a dilemma at the end of your vacation.
According to data, New York is the most expensive place to get married in the US. So, if you are an NYC resident, we have some good and some bad news. Your wedding reception will be expensive, but your honeymoon doesn't have to be! You have Seneca Falls to enjoy after tying the knot. Named for the 11 lakes that spread around the area, Seneca Falls is a beautiful and romantic getaway for couples of all ages. There is a good reason why it is considered as one of the most popular US honeymoon spots in 2019. It's due to its affordability and beautiful scenery that Seneca Falls has landed on this list.
Beautiful wineries are just one thing to enjoy in the most popular US honeymoon spots in 2019.
While Seneca Falls is a perfect summer destination, you do need to be a bit more careful during the winter. As you know, the temperatures in NYC can get out of hand. The key to packing correctly is being prepared on time. Although, preparedness in a timely manner is the key to almost all things in life. Trying to plan a wedding? Start on time! Planning to move to your spouse's house down the block? Then you better prepare in advance for your local relocation. Wanting to pack the best outfits for your honeymoon in Seneca Falls during the cold days? Be prepared by watching the weather forecast.
But, if you think about it, it makes perfect sense. This city in South Carolina is so charming that it promises to leave no one indifferent. Walk the cobblestone streets while holding hands with your new partner for life and enjoy the beautiful vistas. If you want to take things up a notch, treat yourself to a carriage ride. Now, nothing screams romance quite like a carriage ride on a romantic summer evening, in a city with beautiful lighting.
As the last piece of advice, we would just like to tell you to enjoy it while it lasts. Soon after the wedding and honeymoon are over, you will have to go back to your ordinary lives. And then, instead of having the pleasure of reminiscing on your time spent in one of the most popular US honeymoon spots in 2019, you will be sorry you didn't let all of your worries go to waste. And now is the perfect time to forget about the world and focus on the two of you, and this new life you are embarking on together.

PORTLAND, Ore. — BNSF Railway's bridge across the Columbia River was reopened about 5:30 p.m. Pacific time on Tuesday, after a late-morning fire closed the bridge to all traffic, TV station KOIN reports.
The Oregonian newspaper quoted a Portland Fire & Rescue spokesman as saying the fire was started by workers using acetylene torches on the bridge. It was reported about 11 a.m. and burned for about 45 minutes before being extinguished by a fire boat. Thick black smoke from the fire was visible over a large portion of the Portland area.
The fire disrupted BNSF and Union Pacific freight traffic as well as Amtrak service. The bridge, parallel to the Interstate 5 bridge over the river, is the only rail crossing of the Columbia in the Portland area. A longer closure would have required the rerouting of all rail traffic over BNSF's bridge in Wishram, Wash., 90 miles to the east.

Paul-Philippe de Chaumont, né en 1617 et mort à Paris le , est un prélat français.

Biographie
Issu « d'une ancienne famille du Vexin où est le comté de Chaumont », il nait à Paris dans la
paroisse de Saint-Germain-L'auxerrois, il est fils de Jean, seigneur de Boisgarnier  conseiller d'État, auteur de plusieurs livres de théologie et garde des livres du cabinet du roi et de Marie de Bailleul fille de Nicolas et de Marie Habert de Montmor. Il commence ses études en 1651 à l'Université de Paris où il étudie la philosophe puis la théologie à la Sorbonne mais il d'obtient pas de doctorat en droit canon. Ordonné prêtre en 1663 Il échoue en 1665 à être pourvu en commende de Saint-Vincent de Bourg dans le diocèse de Bordeaux mais reçoit une cure à Rouen où il ne réside pas. Parent et collaborateur du chancelier Séguier et parent par sa mère des trois Habert, Philippe, Germain et Henri-Louis, il succède en 1667 à son père dans la charge de garde du cabinet, à laquelle il joint celle de lecteur du roi. Il réside au Louvre jusqu'à sa nomination comme évêque de Dax.

Bien que n'ayant encore rien écrit, il est élu membre de l'Académie française en 1654. Devenu évêque de Dax en 1671, il se démet de ses fonctions en 1684 pour se consacrer plus librement à l'étude, tout en continuant cependant de prêcher. Jean Chapelain dit de lui « qu'il ne manquait pas d'esprit, qu'il avait assez le goût de sa langue et prêchait hardiment et facilement. »

En 1685, il préside à la séance de l'Académie qui prononce l'exclusion d'Antoine Furetière. En 1693, il publie un ouvrage en deux volumes intitulé Réflexions sur le christianisme enseigné dans l'Église catholique. Selon l'abbé d'Olivet, le style de ce traité « ne répond pas moins à la qualité d'historien de l'auteur que le sujet à son caractère d'évêque. »

How SCSI Works
by Jeff Tyson & Tracy V. Wilson
SCSI Types
Different combinations of doubled bus speed, doubled clock speed and SCSI-3 specifications have led to lots of SCSI variations.
HowStuffWorks.com
SCSI has three basic specifications:
SCSI-1: The original specification developed in 1986, SCSI-1 is now obsolete. It featured a bus width of 8 bits and clock speed of 5 MHz.
SCSI-2: Adopted in 1994, this specification included the Common Command Set (CCS) -- 18 commands considered an absolute necessity for support of any SCSI device. It also had the option to double the clock speed to 10 MHz (Fast), double the bus width from to 16 bits and increase the number of devices to 15 (Wide), or do both (Fast/Wide). SCSI-2 also added command queuing, allowing devices to store and prioritize commands from the host computer.
SCSI-3: This specification debuted in 1995 and included a series of smaller standards within its overall scope. A set of standards involving the SCSI Parallel Interface (SPI), which is the way that SCSI devices communicate with each other, has continued to evolve within SCSI-3. Most SCSI-3 specifications begin with the term Ultra, such as Ultra for SPI variations, Ultra2 for SPI-2 variations and Ultra3 for SPI-3 variations. The Fast and Wide designations work just like their SCSI-2 counterparts. SCSI-3 is the standard currently in use.
Different combinations of doubled bus speed, doubled clock speed and SCSI-3 specifications have led to lots of SCSI variations. The chart on this page compares several of them. Many of the slower ones are no longer in use -- we've included them for comparison.
In addition to the increased bus speed, Ultra320 SCSI uses packeted data transfer, increasing its efficiency. Ultra2 was also the last type to have a "narrow," or 8-bit, bus width.
All of these SCSI types are parallel -- bits of data move through the bus simultaneously rather than one at a time. The newest type of SCSI, called Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), uses SCSI commands but transmits data serially. SAS uses a point-to-point serial connection to move data at 3.0 gigabits per second, and each SAS port can support up to 128 devices or expanders.
All the different SCSI varieties use controllers and cables to interface with devices. We'll look at this process next.

National Security Minister Rayburn Blackmoore says the transition from the traditional passport to the New E-Passports must now be completed within the next six months commencing January 30, 2022
Minister of National Security Rayburn Blackmoore addresses the transition from the traditional passport to the New Electronic Passports. The New E-Passports were launched on 29th July 2021, with a two-year transition period, for persons holding an older version of the passport. 7,000 E-Passports were issued yesterday. Blackmoore stated that due to the rapid increase in technology and the need for tighter security, the two year transition period for persons holding an older version of the passport has now been shortened to a period of 6 months commencing on January 30 2022.
He says the ministry has developed plans to guide the public in the upcoming months to help citizens transition quicker.
Blackmoore also stated that Dominica will soon be setting up international passport stations to accommodate Dominican passport holders to transition into E-Passport. He says that these stations will only allow for the ease of documentation as the production of the passports will be in Dominica.

Soap-Hopper Amelia Heinle Reveals Why Y&R Is Home (EXCLUSIVE)
By	Julie McElwain	 August 9, 2020
Amelia Heinle
Howard Wise/jpistudios.com
Having gotten her start in daytime TV as LOVING's Steffi and ALL MY CHILDREN's Mia, former soap-hopper Amelia Heinle says she recognized that she'd found something special at THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS. At first, "I assumed that I wouldn't be at Y&R long before going on to the next show," she admitted to Soaps In Depth. "The first show that I was on [LOVING], I was so young, so after a time, I wanted to try something new.
Heinle was on AMC from 2001-04.ABC
"Then the second soap [AMC], I didn't really want to stay there," Heinle continued. "I liked a lot of people there and made a lot of friends, but it wasn't the same compared to when I came on Y&R. I totally fell in love with it! It's like being part of a sports team. This is my team! I just felt like I belonged here, and as corny as this may sound, I feel like I'm rooting for this team!"

2017 arrives in less than a month, but you can get a glimpse of what it looks like today. We're happy to welcome 2017 with our new Mendola calendar! Thirteen of our artists contributed wonderful artwork that you can enjoy all year long. You can even learn a bit about each of the contributing artists with our "Up Close and Personal" profiles. Discover the answers to fascinating questions like "What is my most bizarre secret talent?" and "I often fantasize about being…." Check out a preview of the work below!

Bill's specializes in delightfully rendered CGI characters; notice the fur. This Englishman is happy to do kick-off conference calls from his local pub.
Heidi's colorful design is sure to brighten your work space leading up to Valentine's Day. If you ever get out to her Northern California studio, be sure to stop by for homemade cobbler and pickles.
Terry Tidwell, the creative genius behind the Miracle curtain, was responsible for this bold comic creation representing March coming in like a lioness.
Oliver created this springtime image in between his hectic schedule creating animations. Be sure to plan in advance to get on his schedule. Oliver told us he fantasizes about being a cat owner.

Echo is an incredibly prolific and versatile artist. We think her stained glass style is perfect for December. Echo regularly attends Comic Con in San Diego…in her RV.


It has been quite a long time since I shared a post. As we all know, life is full of surprises and not all of them are good ones. One of our life's surprises was delivered to us two years ago when my husband sustained a neck injury and then, during surgery, sustained a spinal cord injury. A second surgery was required to relieve pressure from his spinal cord. The new neurosurgeon did everything he could to help and we are thankful beyond measure that he was able to relieve most of my husband's pain. However, there are permanent residual effects, which include muscle weakness, nerve damage, and spinal headaches. We have made it through the worst part and we understand that the window of any possible neurological improvements has now closed. This journey has been like a roller coaster full of highs and lows. There have been moments of devastation, hope, disappointment, encouragement, and loss. Stages of the grief cycle continues to be visited but we do our best to get through the rough days and enjoy the good days. We hang out in the "acceptance" stage more often now, and we are comforted by our love for each other, our faith, and our support system.
Stay strong but also allow yourselves to experience moments of weakness.
Educate yourselves so that you know when you need to advocate for your and/or your child's needs.
Seek support: no matter how strong you are, you need it. Supports can include not only a formal support group but also your family, friends, counseling, and agencies.
Take a little time for yourself and don't feel guilty about it. You need time to energize your battery so that you can be at your best.
I hope that, perhaps, the sharing of our journey has offered some encouragement along yours. Be sure to check the "resources" tab at the top of the page for links to agencies and information you might find helpful.

Thanks for sharing your journey, Rebecca! Thinking of you all!

As Facebook reels from recent scandals concerning user data and privacy, the global public has once again been exposed to the dangers of unregulated technology. It is continually clear that the legislative process is failing to keep pace with rapid technological development. Lawmaking is slow and tedious, and even when efforts are made to regulate current technology it is frequently obsolete by the time any meaningful progress is made.
At present, several budding fields of innovation are challenging policy makers worldwide. Drone technology provides militaries with the power to kill without direct human action. Data harvesting, by both governments and corporations, threatens to infringe upon people's rights and privacy. Technological intervention, both foreign and domestic, disrupts the democratic process around the world. The law is fighting a stacked battle and it is losing.
A telling case study in the race between law making and technology is the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001. Passed during the immediate aftermath of 9/11, it brought sweeping changes to the surveillance privileges of law enforcement with the goal of combating terrorism. It was hailed by many as an example of a law which successfully identified and considered the emerging technology of the time, placing emphasis on online surveillance through email and browsing records.
Upon further investigation, however, the Patriot Act is no trailblazer. It was widely criticized as being rushed through the House and Senate, taking advantage of the post September 11th panic to avoid opposition. This quick passing was what allowed the Act to appear inclusive of current technology. The lack of amendments and challenges to the Act that allowed for this quick passing, however, also allowed for large oversights.
Before the Act was passed, pen register orders could be obtained by law enforcement in order to access the numbers dialed and received by a specific phone. Under Section 216 of the Patriot Act this scope was changed to include 'dialing, routing, and signalling' information. Routing information is a specific reference to internet use, where the law previously covered only telephones.
The Patriot Act also states expressly that no content of communications can be obtained. With telecommunication this is straightforward, because in accessing a phone number one need not access the conversation that is carried out with that number. Over the internet, however, routing and content are completely inseparable. The web address or search result that one is being routed to represents the exact contents of that webpage. Consequently, a law enforcement agency executing a pen register order and receiving the routing information for an individual's browsing history also obtains the content the individual accessed, far exceeding the powers intended for the use of a pen register order.
Under this rushed piece of legislation, law enforcement were suddenly given the power to obtain vast amounts of private information without having to prove the probable cause required to obtain a warrant for search and seizure. This bypassed the Fourth Amendment and left citizens vulnerable to an abuse of privacy by law enforcement.
It seems that it is impossible to strike a balance between swiftly passing legislation to keep up with technological trends and understanding those trends well enough to pass sound laws. Presently, governments globally are struggling to strike this balance as they combat foreign interference in elections through technological means. This issue has recently been brought to the public eye by cyber-interference campaigns originating in Russia during the elections of Ukraine in 2014 and the United States in 2016, as well as suspected interference in the Brexit referendum of 2016 in the United Kingdom.
Despite this clear threat to the democratic process, governments have not yet put in place laws to combat interference. In the United States, the 2018 midterm elections are rapidly approaching, and interference seems all but guaranteed. Yet two pieces of elections security legislation with the power to combat cyber-interference sit nearly stagnant: the PAPER Act in the House of Representatives and the Secure Elections Act in the Senate. Both have been referred to appropriate committees but neither has received a hearing. The legislature will not be fast enough in this case to pass either piece of legislation in time for the midterm elections, and technology will continue to win the race as foreign actors wreak havoc on the democratic process.
It is clear that the traditional legislative process is too slow to continually keep pace with ever evolving technologies. As the future continues to develop, therefore, governments will need to find measures to regulate technology in a timely manner. One such strategy is being used by the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), which has implemented a financial technology "regulatory sandbox". It supports financial firms' innovation by allowing them to test new advancements with real customers in the real market under controlled and monitored conditions. This simultaneously allows the FCA to learn about the technology and how to regulate it while letting firms test it before it is unleashed on the full market.
This provides a potential model for other fields of technology, to create a scenario where regulators are exposed to technology before it is fully released in order to learn about the dangers and potential need for laws governing it. Until innovative strategies like this are implemented by law makers around the world in order to keep up with the torrid pace of technological development, technology will continue to outpace the law. In this scenario, technologies on the horizon such as genetic editing and capable artificial intelligence will enter the world ripe for abuse in an unregulated market.

Gyal P Wangyal
By Kashmir Life on	 July 10, 2019 Personality
Last week, Gyal P Wangyal was elected as the 4th Chief Executive Councillor (CEC) of Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (LAHDC), Leh. Wangyal is a councillor from Sakti constituency of Ladakh and a senior BJP leader.
Wangyal was elected after a long process of election that was held at Council Assembly Hall, Leh. At 34 years of age, Wangyal is the youngest Chief Executive of LAHDC.
Wangyal was the front-runner in the race after the post fell vacant due to the resignation of incumbent CEC Jamyang Tsering Namgyal who was elected as Member of Parliament in the recently held Lok Sabha polls. CEO, LAHDC/Deputy Commissioner Leh, Avny Lavasa who is also the election officer declared the election results and presented the winning certificate to the newly elected CEC Gyal P Wangyal.
BJP has a majority in 26-member LAHDC-Leh after winning 17 of the 24 seats. Congress managed only six seats while the National Conference got two. One seat was bagged by an Independent.
The councillors, Skurbuchan and Stanzin Phuntsog, proposed the name of Gyal P Wangyal for the vacant post of Chairman and CEC which was seconded and supported by other Councilors.
After Wangyal took the oath, he stressed on ensuring a cordial work atmosphere with a common goal towards achieving development targets well on time. He urged all the councillors of both ruling and opposition parties to work united with the intention to serve the people of the region.
Wangyal also remembered his father, veteran leader Sonam Wangyal, and said that he followed his advice that brought him to this high position of CEC, LAHDC.
After the election of CEC, a two-minute silence was also observed to pay homage to those who died recently in Leh district in the wake of road accidents.
The council was created under the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council Act 1995, following demands of Ladakhi people to make Leh District a new Union Territory because of its religious and cultural differences with the rest of Jammu and Kashmir. In October 1993, the Union Government and the Jammu and Kashmir State government agreed to grant Ladakh the status of Autonomous Hill Council.
The council came into being with the holding of elections on August 28, 1995. The inaugural meeting of the council was held at Leh on September 3, 1995. An Autonomous Hill Council has also been established in neighbouring Kargil District.
In 2003, as part of its "healing touch policy", the J&K government announced popular elections for the Autonomous Hill Development Council in Kargil, which was meant to strengthen participatory forms of development, governance and democratic state-building in the war-ravaged district.

The Apple iPad Review (2012)
by Vivek Gowri & Anand Lal Shimpi on March 28, 2012 3:14 PM EST
Introduction The new iPad The Display & Retina Enabled Apps The Display: In Numbers The Display: In Practice The Most Tangible Feature: LTE Support The iPad as a Personal Hotspot: Over 25 Hours of Continuous Use The Camera, It's Much Improved Handheld Image Editing: iPhoto for iOS Battery Life, Charging & Thermals The A5X SoC The GPU & Apple Builds a Quad-Channel Memory Controller A Word on Packaging & Looking Forward The Impact of Larger Memory GPU Performance A5X vs. Tegra 3 in the Real World Gaming Conclusion & Controller Support: An Android Advantage WiFi, GPS & AirPlay What's Next: 6th gen iPhone, Haswell & Windows 8 Vivek's Impressions Final Words
Since Apple launched the first iPad two years ago, the tablet market has evolved rapidly. While slate tablets were nothing new, the original iPad was the first serious tablet to be built around smartphone components and a user interface designed specifically for touchscreen input. The hardware was enough to run the OS smoothly while maintaining good battery life, the thin and light form factor lent itself to easy portability, and the touch-based user experience was miles better than earlier devices based on desktop operating systems.
We take it for granted now, but this was all news back in 2010, and the iPad was practically in a category of its own, with no real competitors to speak of. After Apple started shipping the iPad, the segment basically exploded—we had Google jump in with Honeycomb, HP got into it (and then out of it) with webOS, RIM had a go with the PlayBook, Amazon pushed the Kindle line into the tablet space, and Microsoft created its next release of Windows with tablets in mind. Along the way, Apple updated the iPad, both on the software side with multitasking, a new notifications system, and a myriad of UI updates, as well as launching second generation iPad hardware. The iPad 2 was a comprehensive update, bringing a dual core processor, unrivaled graphics performance, cameras fore and aft, and a ground up redesign that brought a thinner and lighter form factor.
The iPad 2 was a significant improvement over the original—faster, more portable, and generally a far more polished device. Not that it was perfect: iOS 4 still had issues with smooth multitasking and an archaic notifications system, the cameras were mediocre, and the XGA display, while a great quality panel, didn't have the kind of pixel density expected of a premium mobile device. The iPad 2 hit market around the same time as Honeycomb (in Motorola's Xoom) early last year, and at first Apple still held a major edge in terms of hardware. As more impressive Honeycomb devices like Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the ASUS Transformer Prime were launched, along with Ice Cream Sandwich looming on the horizon, Android became a much more viable tablet alternative to iOS. And with Microsoft planning for a major push later this year for ARM-based Windows 8 tablets centered around the Metro UI, Apple has never faced such stiff competition in the tablet space. Which brings us to the third generation of iPad hardware.
It has a display resolution that dwarfs most high-end desktop displays. The panel also puts a real emphasis on quality, not just resolution. For a computing device targeted squarely at the consumer market, both of these things are rarities.
Its SoC is the absolute largest ever squeezed into an ARM based tablet. The chip itself is even bigger than what you find in most mainstream notebooks. It's expensive, it puts out a ton of heat and it offers a tremendous GPU performance advantage over anything else in its class.
And it has a battery that's larger than what ships in the current crop of similarly sized ultraportables and Ultrabooks.
The new iPad doesn't significantly change the tablet usage paradigm, but it does put all previous attempts at building hardware in this space to shame. It's the sort of no holds barred, performance at any expense design that we're used to seeing from enthusiast PC component vendors—but in a tablet...from Apple.
Welcome to the new iPad.

Yes it's nice, no one will argue that. But I don't see it as the huge advancement the authors indicate. Using it in the store it seemed fine, but honestly just walking right up to it, I wasn't even sure if I was using the new or old iPad. I had to go over to the iPad 2 to recognize the difference. And even then, after being back at the new iPad for a couple minutes, I completely forgot about it. If you are looking for pixels, sure, you'll notice. If you're just using your device and thinking about other things, probably not so much. Reply
PeteH - Wednesday, March 28, 2012 - link
Eh, I think it depends on what application you use the iPad for. Web browsing and Tweeting? You're probably right, you wouldn't notice the difference in displays. But if you use it to view images I could see it being a big deal. Reply
zorxd - Wednesday, March 28, 2012 - link
I am pretty sure extra resolution is more noticeable when reading text than when looking at images Reply
I didn't mean "notice" as in you couldn't tell the difference, just that the difference wouldn't be something that you would constantly be aware of if you were simply web browsing.
If you were reading an e-book? Absolutely, but if that's your only use case I'd get a Kindle and save the money.
Regularly viewing quality images is something that can't be done on an e-ink reader, but for which the improved display would make a huge difference. Reply
Sabresiberian - Thursday, March 29, 2012 - link
I would say this is a perfect example of why it's better to use "I"" statements than say "YOU won't notice, YOU won't care, there isn't that much difference" - those kinds of statements. "I didn't notice much of a difference, it wasn't a big change in MY experience. . .)
Displays can very very personal in experience, and things that bug the heck out of me may not be a problem to someone else. For example, a pixel pitch of around .270mm is just too big for me, in a monitor, and it bugs me. Always.
Frame rates are a good example of something I'm not consciously aware of all the time, but I can sure tell the difference on some level, and some displays are more effected than others. There are extra factors in LCD screens that can make the problem worse for some of us - others don't notice so much, or it's just not a problem for them.
One thing I believe, is that as more people use really better screens, they'll understand more why some of us call for them every chance we get.

I can *immediately* notice the difference in web browsing, which is primarily focused on reading text... Reply

I found it a noticeable difference, just not neuron melting like some reviews led me to think. For 100 or more less I'd still be plenty happy with an iPad 2, especially given the CPU and battery life performance are about the same. Reply

Unfortunately the iPad 2's camera is a disgrace. It should've had the iPhone 4 camera, which was already out by that time. Reply
repoman27 - Thursday, March 29, 2012 - link
The iPad 2 was also thinner than the iPhone 4. Now that it is the same width, it has the same camera. It's not really Apple's style to add thickness to a device just to support one feature that isn't heavily used anyway (tablets are not a very good form factor for a camera.) Reply

Human vision varies significantly from person to person, as do use patterns for machines. Someone who is more near sighted or simply has better vision in general, and/or uses their system at a closer distance, may see a truly dramatic change. To take my personal example, I have excellent color vision and am also near sighted, and tend to hold my devices relatively close (or use glasses at my machine). I can see the pixels on the iPhone 4 screens (326 ppi) if I focus a bit, and for the older screens (or old iPads) they're massively pixelated to me (not that that made them useless). The High DPI screens are a night/day difference personally, making all types of reading in particular (be it on a terminal session, the web, PDF manuals, ebooks, or whatever) massively more functional (and everything else more beautiful).
But that's just me, and is that awesome? No, it's kind of meh, I'd love it if I didn't need glasses to use my desktop without being hunched over the keyboard to drive. But understand that you'll see raves about the screen that are completely justified, just not for you. 20/20 vision puts the critical distance around 13" I think, but in the end everyone will need to take a look for themselves.

the mama 'hood's Co-Founder & CEO shares a few tips on starting your own business for those mamas who are ready to go it on their own!
What are YOU uniquely good at?
What aspect of the business taps into your strengths?
Talk to EVERYONE who will listen to you about your idea/your business. (not always overtly) and go to of events of all sorts.
Good things don't happen when we are under pressure.
Family must come first, otherwise, your heart won't be in it.
Time gives you objectivity, clarity and truth – do you REALLY want to do this?
It takes time for your name to get out there.
You MUST love what you do – this is hard work.
Speak using the language of enthusiasm. It is infectious.
If you don't know accounting, hire a bookkeeper to ensure you always know how healthy your business is. Then take a business accounting class.


Henry David Thoreau's book "Walden, Life in the Woods," is considered to be among America's most influential and popular books. Thoreau discovered beauty and utility among the smallest of things while living 26-months beside a remote pond in 1847.
While embracing the beauty of such in the hills, hollers and creeks near the Village of Hur as a child, I returned in 1979 for a year to live in he woods.
It was a time for healing from a drinking problem, dropping upward mobility and returning to the curious. What a wonderful experience it was.
Then in 1996 we returned permanently.
I was reminded of the importance of curiosity by interviewing long-time Calhoun educator Don McCartney, who said "If all students were curious, we'd have no problem educating."
McCartney acknowledged that some people travel with a myopic view of life and what the world offers, their journey sadly deprived.
From childhood I was blessed with curiosity, growing up in the woods and having parents, who with small means, indulged me with books and music, and supported my curiosities.
I almost suffered from a curiosity of so many things that I was almost a master of none, and maybe I am.
In those early years, while connected to nature, I expanded my curiosity from building a radio station (illegal), a chemistry lab (my mom feared I was going to burn the house down) and a miniature movie theater, all in our cellar house, while making rocket ships, sky watching and blowing things up.
In between, I read books, newspapers and magazines.
Mostly I walked for miles across the hills and valleys.
Mario Livio, who does a web site called the Curious Mind, is an astrophysicist and an author of popular science books. His research interests range from extrasolar planets to supernova explosions and cosmology, but he is also passionate about art - astounding and breathtaking images that have been taken by the Hubble Space Telescope.
Many breathtaking images have been photographed from Calhoun's park by amateur astronomers who come to the county because we're a dark spot, a universal view not obstructed by metro lights.
Now, a project is proposed to develop the park as a Dark Skies Astronomy Center, long dreamed.
Livio says of such photography, "The effect they have on the viewer is on one hand the result of their sheer visual impact, and on the other, the fact that the objects being imaged truly exist in this wondrous cosmos. This fusion of evocative reality with artistic rendering is simply irresistible."
And to think, those images, art and beauty are available right here in the backwoods of West Virginia.
All it takes to is some curiosity to gaze a few steps from your back door to discover beauty.
And with a small dose of silence, life has more meaning.

Forces Of Drug Prohibition Won Big
The forces of drug prohibition won a big case that will reverberate in the fight against the health care bill. They won it in 2005 in the Supreme Court. Read it and weep.
Lawsuits from 14 states challenging the constitutionality of the new national healthcare law face an uphill battle, largely due to a far-reaching Supreme Court ruling in 2005 that upheld federal restrictions on home-grown marijuana in California.
At issue in that case -- just like in the upcoming challenges to the healthcare overhaul -- was the reach of the federal government's power.
Conservative Justices Antonin Scalia and Anthony M. Kennedy joined a 6-3 ruling that said Congress could regulate marijuana that was neither bought nor sold on the market but rather grown at home legally for sick patients.
They said the Constitution gave Congress nearly unlimited power to regulate the marketplace as part of its authority "to regulate commerce."
Even "noneconomic local activity" can come under federal regulation if it is "a necessary part of a more general regulation of interstate commerce," Scalia wrote.
The decision throws up a significant hurdle for the lawsuit filed last week in federal court by 13 state attorneys -- all but one a Republican. The Virginia attorney general filed a similar, but separate suit.
Which just goes to show you that Liberty is indivisible. You start denying it to people you don't like and pretty soon it will be denied to you.
This would be hilarious if it wasn't so funny.
Here is a nice little ditty.
First they came for the crack users; but I said nothing. I was not a crack user.
Then they came for the heroin users. But I said nothing - I was not a heroin user.
Then they came for the cannabis growers. But I said nothing - I was not a cannabis grower.
Then they came for the Antisocial Youth. But I said nothing - I was not young or antisocial.
Then they came for me. And there was no-one to speak out for me.
[after Pastor Niemoller]
Well I have been screaming my lungs out about the Drug War for decades. And my conservative friends have been putting their fingers in their ears and screaming "La La La I can't hear you."
I believe the 2005 ruling actually refers back to a 1930s case in which the court ruled that under the commerce clause the Feds could regulate a wheat farmer whose total crop was used on his own farm and not sold.
That case was all about commerce and where the lines are. Griswold v. Connecticut might serve as a counter precedent if some judge will see drug use a a personal (our bodies ourselves) issue. After all, Griswold only addressed whether married people could practice birth control. It eventually became a woman's right to an abortion.
By the way, if Griswold can't be used for drug rights (even medicinal? our bodies?) it probably will be used to legalize polygamy and prostitution.

You are correct. The case is Wickard vs Filburn.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wickard_v._Filburn


Our improvement plan focuses on three aspects, being the reduction of energy consumption and the reduction of waste materials in general and packaging more specifically. Last, but certainly not least we aim to reduce the use of chemicals and ban the so-called R-listed products. We will keep you informed about our progress.

Professor E.E. Hagen dies
Dr. Everett E. Hagen, professor emeritus of political science and economics and former director of the Center for International Studies, died November 29 in Grand Rapids, MI, at the age of 86.
Professor Hagen, whose specialty was the economic and social development of emerging nations, came to MIT in 1953 as a senior staff member at CIS and as a visiting professor of economics. He was appointed professor of economics in 1959 and of political science in 1965. From 1963 to 1965 he was on leave from the Institute as a guest of the Tavistock Institute of Human Relations in London, England.
He was appointed CIS director in 1970 and continued in that post until his retirement in 1972.
Born in Holloway, MI, in 1906, Professor Hagen received the BA degree in 1927 from St. Olaf College in Northfield, MI. At the University of Wisconsin, he received the MA in history in 1932 and PhD in economics in 1941.
During World War II, Professor Hagen served as an economist for the National Resources Planning Board, in a planning unit of the Federal Reserve Board, and as chief of the Division of Program Planning of the Office of War Mobilization and Reconversion. From 1946 to 1948 he was a fiscal analyst for the Bureau of the Budget, and a consultant to the US Economic Cooperation Administration.
Professor Hagen resumed his academic career as professor of economics at the University of Illinois in 1948 and served as chairman of the economics department in 1950-51.
In 1951, as director of the field staff in Burma for Robert R. Nathan Associates, he became economic advisor to the government of Burma.
At various times, Professor Hagen was a consultant to the US Treasury Department, the President's Task Force on Foreign Economic Assistance and the US Agency for International Development. He also advised the US Council of the International Chamber of Commerce, and the governments of Japan, El Salvador, Singapore and Saudi Arabia.
He was the author, co-author or editor of several books and many articles and papers in his fields of specialization. His memberships included the American Economic Association and the Royal Economic Society, and he was president of the Association for Comparative Economics in 1966-67.
He leaves his wife, Ruth (Alexander) Hagen.
A version of this article appeared in the January 6, 1993 issue of MIT Tech Talk (Volume 37, Number 17).

Design/build - A TE/STI relationship
William D. Lawson
Civil Environ Construct Engineering
Tecxtrans Engineers (TE) teamed up with Specialty Transit, Inc., (STI) a construction contractor, to pursue the Franklin project as a partnership-type joint venture (TE/STI). STI was interested in this project for two reasons, one being that this project represented a move into a new region of the country strategic to STI's growth, and the second was that they were highly qualified to do infrastructure type construction associated with intelligent transportation systems. Marc Stanton was the managing director of the joint venture, and was responsible for STI's work, while Ethan served as TE's representative. TE was responsible for design and STI for construction work. Marc has substituted electronics hardware in the struggle to keep costs within the guaranteed maximum. The project is approaching 35% completion, and Ethan reflects on the cooperative relationship between his firm and Specialty Transit.

The tropical climate, exotic flowers, palms and trees in the gardens, the proximity to the crystalline waters of the Atlantic Ocean, the white sandy beaches, marine life and dune vegetation surrounding our sanctuary – all influence our décor and ambiance. Natural products are used wherever possible, and many furnishings feature patterns and colors inspired by the environment surrounding the property.
Our goal was to create an urban oasis with a warm undertone to provide a mood of relaxation.


I have a background in development studies and research, consultancy and project management experience in several countries, including Nigeria, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Sierra Leone, Bolivia and the Philippines.

I have been involved in the process of the World Social Forum, particularly in its Nairobi event. I have also actively participated in grassroots campaigns focusing on the social, economic, and environmental rights of people living in informal settlements and civil society initiatives based in the global South around the issue of illegitimate debt. My training and teaching experience before joining UCL focused a lot on the intersection between globalisation and development.
I was involved in the DFID-funded participatory research initiative Participate: Knowledge from the margins for post-2015 to bring the perspectives of those who live in poverty or who are highly marginalised into the Sustainable Development Goals. I have also conducted multi-country participatory research for CAFOD and authored the COMPASS 2015 report presented during the UN General Assembly in 2013. I have also done some work for CAFOD to systematise lessons learnt from ongoing experiences and processes of involving people living in poverty into policy-making. The report provided suggestions for the implementation of the SDGs agenda.

Designs for St Thomas' Hospital east wing cladding go on show
Louvres inspired by a Bridget Riley artwork are among the ideas put forward by the shortlisted architects in a competition to design new energy-efficient cladding for the east wing of St Thomas' Hospital.
The east wing as it is today
Design team E says that its louvres have been influenced by Bridget Riley
Team D's proposal seen from Lambeth Bridge
The east wing is a 13-storey 1960s tower which includes more than 200 beds for patients. Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust launched an architectural competition for the recladding of the building to modernise it and improve its energy efficiency.
In May six teams of architects and contractors were shortlisted and their designs have now been put on public display.
The architectural practices represented on the shortlist are Allford Hall Monaghan Morris, David Morley Architects, Denton Corker Marshall, Grimshaw, Hopkins Architects and Penoyre & Prasad.
Patients and local residents are invited to comment on the six designs at a public exhibition this month. The teams are not identified in the displays and are simply labeled A to F.
Team A say they will create new 'place to pause' for staff and patients, and claim that their prefabricated cladding will not require scaffolding and can simply be craned into place.
Design B is intended to maximise natural daylight by 'designing around the sun' and creating zig-zag bay windows.
Team C propose a translucent white cloak with greenery in the windows and on the rooftop.
Proposal D highlights the possibility of fresh air ventilation and photovoltaic panels on the rooftop. The design is described as 'warp and weft' with an emphasis on horizontal and vertical elements.
A high-performance skin wrapped around the tower 1 metre from the existing facade is proposed by team E. The sun shading on the Archbishop's Park side of the building is said to be influenced by climbing plants such as the clematis, whilst the riverside louvres are inspired by a Bridget Riley painting.
Team F plan to create triangular atria on the eastern side of the building.
The designs are on show in Atrium 1 at Guy's Hospital on Monday 9 and Tuesday 10 August. The exhibition then moves to Central Hall at St Thomas' Hospital from Wednesday 11 to Friday 13 August. The display will be at Durning Library in Kennington on Tuesday 17 and Wednesday 18 August.
The exhibition panels can also be seen on the Guy's and St Thomas' website.

A fossil Pterosaur from the Early Cretaceous Jehol Biota of western Liaoning Province, China.
The Pterosaur Zhenyuanopterus longirostris was described from a single specimen from the Early Cretaceous Yixian Formation (part of the Jehol Biota) from a site in Beipiao County in western Liaoning Province in 2010. It is a large Pterosaur with an elongate skull with a large number of teeth (about 160), powerful wings and week hindlimbs. The original specimen was almost complete, lacking only a portion of the tail.
In a paper published in the journal Acta Geologica Sinica in February 2014, Teng Fangfang of the Xinghai Paleontological Museum of Dalian, Lü Junchang of the Institute of Geology at the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, Wei Xuefang of the Cores and Samples Center of Land and Resources of the China Geological Survey, Hsiao Yufu of the Geoscience Institute of the Chinese Culture University and Michael Pittman of the Vertebrate Palaeontology Laboratory at the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Hong Kong, describe a new specimen of Zhenyuanopterus longirostris, from the same locality as the first.
The new specimen is considerably smaller than the first, slightly over half its size, and is presumed to be immature (unlike Birds, which reach full size rapidly, then learn to fly, Pterosaurs appear to have been able to fly before reaching physical maturity, and to have taken a number of years to reach their full size). The skeleton is incomplete, and largely disarticulated, but the tail and hindquarters are intact.
Zhenyuanopterus longistris, new specimen. Photograph (a) and line drawing (b). Abbreviations: caud, caudal vertebrae; cor, coracoid; dor, dorsal vertebrae; drib, dorsal ribs; f, femur; il, ilium; is, ischium; sacr, sacral vertebrae; sc, scapula; ti, tibia. Teng et al. (2014).
The new specimen provides additional information about the growth and development of Zhenyuanopterus longirostris. This suggests that powerful wings are a feature which developed early in the species, while the hindlimbs were never well developed. Zhenyuanopterus longirostris does not appear to have been well adapted to life on the ground, presumably spending most of its life on the wing, or at very least suspended on trees or cliffs.
