Recently disclosed by Uber was a mishap that affects millions of customers and drivers, but it was swept under the rug, potentially putting millions at a higher risk.
Apparently late 2016, Uber had been hacked, and millions of customers and drivers' sensitive information had become known to the malicious online hackers. Instead of disclosing this information to the proper channels, Uber instead chose to pay hackers 100,000$ to destroy data on millions of customers and drivers, to hide the incident from victims and authorities.
Attorney generals in at least four U.S. states have launched investigations into the incident. Due to Ubers decision to go against regulations and report the incident, they are now in hot water with their customers and drivers, as well as local governments.
The FTC, which looks into companies who handle sensitive personal information, is now looking into Uber to assess the damage and serious issues that are prevalent in response to the breach.
This issue does not only affect the US, but the UK as well. The UK criticized Uber for it's lack of communication, preventing UK government to look into the problem and asses the damage for those affected. The UK has a 500,000 pound penalty delivering to Uber for their inability to follow regulations.
The information that was stolen includes email, phone numbers, names, as well as license numbers. An estimated 600,000 drivers license numbers were stolen.
Uber has been tight-lipped with reporters looking for more inquiry about the problem that arose and how it was handled. Uber executives have been fleeing one by one for one reason or another, involving sexual harassment, data privacy, and business practice. London has pulled Uber's operating license because of their failure to deal with public safety and security isssues.


When did I feel most alive recently? It had to have been on my recent job hunting expedition through the west. Specifically, it was on the leg of my trip through the Colorado River Valley along Interstate 70.
Previously in Portland, I had seen on the news that authorities were checking rivers around the area and would not deem it safe for things like swimming right now because the late snow melt had rivers running too fast and too cold. Then in Salt Lake City, I had family telling me they were expecting some flooding this spring because there was still so much snow on the mountain peaks. So I get in to Colorado, and I see a raging Colorado River. It was a sight to see. The river was way past it banks. It was creating rapids like you wouldn't believe. The further up in to the mountains I got, the more bite the river seemed to have. I watched white water rafters going down stream. I watched guys with surfboards trying to ride the best "waves" the river could give. Then to top it all off, I get to the highest peaks, and I got to get out of the car and play in the snow…in the middle of freakin' JUNE!!!
It was the feeling of being somewhere new and doing something new. It was the feeling of not knowing what was around the other bend, but all the while just inside the safety zone (being in my car and not the water). It was the feeling that it wasn't just any normal day.


After having lost Games 5 and 6 by a total of 14-3, #Djurgården wins Game-7 at #Färjestad 4-1 to advance to final vs #Frölunda. The clubs from Gothenburg and Stockholm have never met in a final.
Three games into the finals, the @SwissIceHockey playoffs have had an attendance capacity rate of 98,6%. Last night's Game-3 #SCBern vs. #EVZug saw a capacity crowd of 17.031.

In line with the focus of President Muhammadu Buhari's administration to revitalise Nigeria's Industrial sector and create 10 million jobs by leveraging the Nigeria Industrial Revolution Plan and the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan, the Bank of Industry (BOI) has just successfully concluded a landmark US1bn loan syndication transaction. The transaction is aimed at further improving the capacity of the bank to continue to effectively support Micro, Small, Medium and Large enterprises (across key sectors) of the Nigerian economy with affordable loans of medium to long-term, alongside moratorium benefits.
This transaction marks the third major international debt syndication deal successfully concluded by BOI within the last 3 years. In 2018, the bank raised the sum of US$750 million (Arranged by African Export-Import Bank "Afreximbank") which has been fully repaid, and in March this year, concluded a US$1 billion loan deal (Lead arranged by Afreximbank, Credit Suisse, Rand Merchant Bank and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited (SMBC).
Afreximbank and Credit Suisse acted as Co-ordinating Mandated Lead Arrangers, Underwriters, and Bookrunners of the transaction. Africa Finance Corporation, First Rand (Rand Merchant Bank) and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation subsequently joined as Mandated Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners, while the Export-Import Bank of China joined as a Mandated Lead Arranger. Afreximbank acted as the Facility Agent and Security Trustee for the deal. We are pleased to report that 28 international financial institutions and funds participated in this transaction, which was initially launched at US$750m, but upsized to US$1bn due to over-subscription.
Key factors that led to the success of this deal despite the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic include amongst others, the impressive credit ratings of the bank (long term issuer default rating of B with stable outlook from Fitch, long term issuer rating of B2 from Moody's and Aa from Agusto), its ISO certifications in both Quality Management Systems and Information Security, as well as the strong strategic partnership that the bank has developed with the Nigerian commercial banks, who patriotically continue to provide credit enhancements and de-risking tools to BOI customers.
Of particular and special note is the support of our owners (the Federal Ministry of Finance Incorporated and the Central Bank of Nigeria), the Federal Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning and our supervising ministry, the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment. The Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria and his Committee of Governors supported BOI by providing a full guarantee for the facility and a 100% currency swap to mitigate the foreign exchange rate risk.
The facility will be disbursed in Naira at single digit interest rates to borrowers with bankable projects. Between 2015 and October 2020, the Bank of Industry with the support of its various stakeholders disbursed over ₦945 billion to 3,013,087 enterprises, thus creating over 6.87 million estimated direct and indirect jobs.
With the successful conclusion of this deal, the Board and management of Bank of Industry is confident that the bank is now better positioned to catalyze domestic production and facilitate job creation on a transformational scale, enhance local industry competitiveness, attract domestic and foreign investments, integrate our local industries into domestic, regional and global value chains, grow our export earnings and positively impact the overall economic development of Nigeria in line with its mandate and especially in light of the planned commencement of the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) in January 2021.

It's obvious why some of us don't like online ads. In this day and age, we search the Web for what we want and don't enjoy being distracted by miscellaneous ads. However, when presented at the right time to the right person, targeted online ads can help us research products, save money, update us on our favorite brands and lead us to new ones we would like.
A recent Adweek Media study found that as many as 43% of consumers ignore online display ads. However, since display ads are the second-largest online marketing channel, according to the IAB, marketers need to make fighting "banner blindness" one of their top priorities in order to make those budget dollars pay off.
1.Timing and Placement Are Key: Banner ads need to be delivered at a time when the reader is compelled to take action. Even a well-designed and perfectly targeted banner ad may attract eyeballs, but won't necessarily convert the view into an action because the reader isn't looking for product information at that point in time. As for ad location, most Internet-savvy people look at Web sites in an F-shaped pattern, merely scanning the top before directing their gaze to the middle of the page where the majority of the content appears. Therefore, it would make sense to start placing your ads in those locations.
2. Surprise the Consumer: Advertisers and agencies must be innovative within the small banner ad space they are given by doing something that's truly a first. Many consumers have trained themselves to ignore ads, but if you catch them off guard with an innovative one, they will be more likely to convert. A great tool to use is Flash, which gives you the ability to have animation that engages the consumer while keeping the file size low. However, be sure not to use the technique purely for distraction; Flash banners must be used to convey your messages effectively.
3. Take Advantage of Remarketing: The ability to reconnect with people who have previously visited your business is a technology unique to the Internet. Therefore, you should use banner space to target these past visitors because they are already familiar with your brand. The best part of remarketing is that it is aimed at the most vital target of an advertiser -- its own audience. Remarketing helps consumers see banner ads that are more relevant to their individual interests, so the more sites they visit that use remarketing, the more relevant their banner ad experience will become.
4. Give People What They Want: Promotions! Bringing your ads to a higher click-through rate than the industry average of .09% means placing enticing promotions and offers into the banner. Groupon and LivingSocial have done a great job of this, and have enjoyed enormous success. It forces advertisers to give the best possible offer to get new clients to buy their product or service, often at a loss to the advertiser. While 50% or 60% is pushing it, what about 15% or free shipping? If you want a consumer to buy your product for the first time, you need to offer them a great reason to click on the banner.
5. Use Creative Artwork: According to research performed by Franck Largeault, banners composed of artwork have a much stronger effect on memory and future recognition than banners that only consist of links or text. Visual banner ads have almost double the impact of textual ads. If ad creative design is boring, you'll know if because consumers won't click on the banner. You need to change it up to really stand out and capture consumers' attention!
In the beginning, banner ads were the primary form of online advertising, much like commercials were on television. However, just as TV commercials lost their effectiveness with the invention of the DVR, banner ads began losing their effectiveness as online consumers became accustomed to ads on Web pages and began to ignore those areas.
After a decade-plus of fake giveaways, pop the balloon with darts, ad games and countless other annoying tricks, you'd think there would be complete banner blindness from all consumers. However, digital advertising is here to stay. While banner blindness is getting worse, the good news is that there is still time to fix this problem. Companies need to learn how to rise above the noise and capture the consumers' attention despite their learned indifference.
1 comment about "5 Ways To End Banner Blindness".
Rafael Cosentino from Telanya, October 27, 2011 at 3:37 p.m.
Good advice. The alternative route to ending your target banner blindness is simply to not just use "banners". We find that standard size ads (300x250, 728x90, 300x600 etc) in standard page positions (top of page, right rail and footer) do not perform nearly as well as non-standard sizes in non-standard page positions.


Bruce Epperly brings the second of his reflections in his Loosely Christian Series. Now for those of you who know Bruce and his writings, he is a Process Theologian. As such, he envisions God present in and working through creation. His is a panentheistic theology. Since I still work to some degree within a Barthian scheme -- thus God is outside us and revealing from outside -- I find his reflections challenging -- in a good way. I like my theology with a little of Barth and a little of Process, which ends up with a bit of an odd mixture. Whatever the case, I think we can benefit from thinking about the ways in which God is moving and revealing God's self in our lives. Take a read, and offer your thoughts.
· God is moving in and through all things, seeking abundant life for all creation. God is alive, intimate, and on our side. This is the practical meaning of God's lively omnipresence and omni-activity, aiming at beauty in all things. God does not need to control the world to give our lives meaning and vitality. Rather, God guides the world from within, providing a vision of possibilities for personal and global transformation.
· God's revelation is as intimate as this moment's inspiration, but also revealed over the long haul of our lives and communities of faith. God brings healing to your life and the world. God's transformative power energetically shapes our lives and the evolving religious traditions in their diversity and relationship with one another.
· God does not act over against the world, but within the world through encouraging creaturely freedom and creativity. God seeks abundance for all creation. God wants you and your loved ones to have abundant life. God does not create a "zero sum" universe, in which creaturely innovation challenges God's sovereignty. God delights in our personal and corporate adventures, encouraging evolution and innovation. We live in a lively and abundant world in which we are partners and co-creators with God. As we become more creative and caring, we enable God to become more creative and caring. Our personal and communal healing helps God heal the planet.
· While God seeks wholeness in all things, God must act in the context of real creaturely freedom. In contrast to popular Christian writer Rick Warren's deterministic viewpoint, a loosely Christian vision asserts that God has not decided all the important things in our lives without our input, nor has God placed obstacles in our way simply to test how we'll respond. Instead, it affirms that God lovingly responds to events God has not and would not have chosen – cancer, abuse, suicide, earthquake, and tsunami. In the context of a world in which all creatures exhibit at least minimal creativity and self-determination, God invites us to be God's healing and welcoming partners in the process of "tikkun 'olam", or mending the world.
· God experiences the joy and pain of the world from the inside out. God's love involves receptivity as well as activity, listening as well as acting. What we do really matters to God and shapes God's own experience and the nature of God's future involvement in the world. As Alfred North Whitehead says, "God is the fellow sufferer who understands." God is also the fellow celebrant who rejoices in our healing, intimacy, and creativity. That's what love is all about, nurturing intimacy, celebration, freedom, and growth – whether in my love for my wife, son, or infant grandson or God's love for the evolving universe in all its diversity and fragility.
· God constantly creates in partnership with the world. God is still speaking and moving in our lives and the world. God's word goes forth, vibrating within our spirits and the circuits of galaxies. God is growing and evolving in relationship with an evolving universe. Protean and flexible in character, God, as the source of evolution and emergence, is constantly doing new things and inviting us to embody new possibilities, working with the world as it is to bring forth a dynamic and evolving vision of Shalom. Our vision of an adventurous and shape-shifting God invites us to be part of a holy and fluid adventure.
Yes, we are part of a lively holy adventure with God as the Great Adventurer. God is ready to give us more than we can ask or imagine. Within the limits of our lives, God sees wondrous possibilities for creative transformation. (Next week, I will be reflective on Affirmative Humanity, in our Adventures with Loosely Christian: Answering God's Call for an Affirmative Faith for Today.
 My response to Rick Warren is found in Holy Adventure: 41 Days of Audacious Living (Nashville: Upper Room, 2008; second edition, 2013, Parsons Post Books).

What comes to mind when you hear or see the word garbage bins? Why garbage bins? Years ago people used to dig up holes and bury garbage. This was an effective method because the population was relatively small and thus waste production was at a lower scale compared to today. Over the years there has been a necessity for bins to dispose of the never-ending garbage in homes, workplaces and even in the streets.
The availability of waste created the need for a place where the dirt could be organized or put hence the establishment of the garbage bins. Garbage bins are efficient, effective and relatively affordable. Their fair prices make them accessible to a wider range of people. They come in different sizes and shapes. A garbage bin ranges to an approximate of 27 dollars to 486 dollars depending on sizes. Its material makes it non-renewable in that it can be cleaned and re-used.
Garbage bins are used to temporarily hold dirt which is then collected by some companies for disposal or recycling. An example of these companies includes Skip bins, Adelaide. The bins are only able to hold a certain amount of garbage, larger bins hold a considerably large amount of trash while the little ones hold small amounts. Nothing is messy like overflowing garbage bins, therefore, it is essential to buy the right size or an adequate amount depending on the place the bins are required. The larger ones are with rollers and wheels to ease moving them around and handling them.
The garbage bins are even designed in different colors and designs one can choose from depending on their preference and appeal. The bins are also equipped with flexible or removable lids. This is to cover and control the trash from scattering and contain the bad odor inside. The lids also prevent animals from tampering with the trash and keeps insects or unwanted pests away from the rubbish.
There have been a lot of companies that rent the garbage bins and collect the garbage from time to time for recycling. Most skip bins adelaide services the areas around the city of Adelaide in South Australia. The company provides a four-day skip hire with cheap skip bins. Skip bins is cost effective and thus a convenient way of disposing litter on a budget. Their variety of bins roll that are kept.
For a long time always results in green waste being disposed to make. Adelaide also cater to specialized bins and a good example is the ones that are certified, crane able bins, large amounts of the same.
Imagine how the world would look like without somewhere to dispose of dirt. It would without a doubt be chaotic and look a dump site with a lot of garbage everywhere. People and companies generate a lot of trash. This trash ends up giving us a lot of stress when it comes to clearing them, for safe and healthy environments. Having the proper equipment for waste management like garbage bins ensures such kind of an environment.

Pew Biomedical Scholars
Overview Directory of Scholars Program Details To Apply
The current grant level is $300,000; $75,000 per year for a four-year period. For the 2020 award, one nomination will be invited from each of the participating institutions. Participating institutions have been selected on the basis of the scope of their work in biomedical research and recommended to The Pew Charitable Trusts by the National Advisory Committee of the program.
Eligibility for the 2020 award
Candidates must have been awarded a doctorate in biomedical sciences, medicine or a related field.
As of Oct. 17, 2019, nominees must hold full-time appointments at the rank of assistant professor. (Appointments such as research assistant professor, adjunct assistant professor, assistant professor research track, visiting professor or instructor are not eligible.)
On June 14, 2019, candidates must have been in such an appointment for less than three years (not appointed before June 14, 2016), whether or not such an appointment was on a tenure track. Time spent in clinical internships, residencies, in work toward board certification, or on parental leave does not count as part of this three-year limit. Candidates who took parental leave should contact Pew's program office to ensure that application reviewers are aware of their circumstances.
Candidates may be nominated by their institution two times in total. ALL applicants must be nominated by their institution and must complete the 2020 online application.
If an applicant's university has more than one eligible nominating institution or campus, that applicant may only apply from one institution; they may not reapply in a subsequent year from a different one.
Based on their performance during their education and training, candidates should demonstrate outstanding promise as contributors in science relevant to human health. Strong proposals will incorporate particularly creative and pioneering approaches. Candidates whose work is based on biomedical principles, but who bring in concepts and theories from more diverse fields, are encouraged to apply. Ideas with the potential to produce an unusually high impact are encouraged. Selection of the successful candidates will be based on a detailed description of the work that the applicant proposes to undertake, evaluations of the candidate's performance, and notable past accomplishments, including honors, awards, and publications. In evaluating the candidates, the National Advisory Committee gives considerable weight to evidence that the candidate is a successful independent investigator and has published significant work.
Funding from the NIH, other government sources, and project grants from non-profit associations do not pose a conflict with the Pew scholars program. If you have questions concerning eligibility, please contact Kara Coleman, project director, Pew Biomedical Programs at 215-575-4925 in advance of applying.
Terms of the award
An award of $75,000 per year will be provided to the sponsoring institution for use by the scholar over the four-year period, subject to annual review of the scholar's progress. Grant agreements will be issued in August of the award year. Annual progress reports are required, describing research accomplishments, project status, and future directions. In addition, financial reports are required annually accounting for grant expenditures. Funding for the second, third and fourth years is contingent upon timely submission of acceptable financial and narrative progress reports and attendance at the annual meeting in March during the four-year term.
The awarded funds may be used at the discretion of the Pew scholar, for personnel, equipment, supplies, or travel directly related to the scholar's research and as to best advance his or her research and career. Not more than $12,500 of the annual award may be used for the scholar's salary (including benefits). Should the funds not be immediately required, they may be accumulated and carried over through the four years of the grant period, and, with written approval of the program office, the grant may be extended for one additional (fifth) year (without additional funds). Not more than 8 percent of the total award may be allocated for overhead costs. It is expected that Pew scholars will spend at least 80 percent of their time in work related to the accomplishment of their overall research goals. However, Pew provides flexible support to the overall research aims of the scholar and does not monitor or restrict percentage of effort or time of Pew scholars.
During the four-year scholarship term, program participants are required to attend an annual meeting held in March. All expenses for attendees' travel, lodging, and meals are paid by Pew. The meeting provides Pew scholars with an opportunity to present their research and for scientific collaboration and exchange with other scholars and members of the National Advisory Committee.
For the awards to be made in 2020, one nomination will be invited from the presidents of the following 195 institutions, which have been selected on the basis of the scope of their work in biomedical research, and which have been recommended to The Pew Charitable Trusts by the National Advisory Committee of the program.

The story of scientific discovery is a personal one, and the Oral History and Archives Project for the Pew Scholars Program in the Biomedical Sciences has collected the life stories of more than 200 Pew scholars and produced one of the most extensive biomedical research oral history archives available today in the United States.
The oral history project, launched in 1988, provides an intellectual portrait of modern science and makes available significant insight into the factors that shaped the lives of some of today's most accomplished biomedical scientists.
The oral history collection traces the scientific paths that the scholars pursued, the challenges they confronted, and the kinds of choices and decisions they made that shaped their careers. Such stories, in turn, can motivate and inspire others to follow similar routes.
The completed oral histories are archived at the Chemical Heritage Foundation in Philadelphia. Many of the histories are available for viewing and research upon request. For more information about the Pew scholars oral history collection, please contact the Chemical Heritage Foundation.

Whatever the type, gardeners need to be able to identify plants that are sick. They are able to take a look at their plants and determine exactly what is wrong. This is even more important for marijuana growers as they are not usually able to seek advice from others to help them.
You should not just be able to diagnose the problem and correctly, you must also have the knowledge and tools to remedy all that makes your plants sick. If you are able to do this properly, you will have a greater chance of succeeding during your first marijuana grow op.
This article about nutrient deficiencies in outdoor marijuana plants will help you improve your skills and increase your chances of success.
Do not go with your plants?
Deficiencies are not the only possible problems your plants may have with nutrients. They can also have too much of something, including the three essential nutrients (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium). So how to identify it?
First, consider whether what you gave to feed your plant was completely balanced, specifically looking at the NPK balance. After that, test the pH value of the soil and the water you gave it. If the pH levels are not perfect, correct them. If they are balanced and your plants show symptoms of poor health, then you probably have a problem that is related to the sun, as it is difficult to control.
Before being too confused or overwhelmed by these possibilities, make sure that you identify them correctly. If your plants receive plenty of sun and balanced water, there is a good chance that the problem comes from nutrients.
The most likely explanation for the poor health of your plants is a lack of nutrients in the soil, or the inability of the roots to absorb the nutrients that are present. The challenge at this time is not to actually enrich the soil as they will easily provide the necessary nutrients to your plants. In fact, the challenge is to identify which nutrients are problematic.
You can look at the different symptoms your plants exhibit, but just watching can be difficult as some nutrient deficiencies will seem the same to an untrained eye. If after reading what the different deficiencies look like you are still not sure which nutrient is missing from your plant, you can try rinsing the soil with water before doing anything else. This is because the deficiency of one nutrient can be caused by the surplus of another nutrient. Too much potassium, for example, can prevent your plant from absorbing iron. The process is as follows: rinse the soil, test the pH level, add what you think is necessary and test the pH level again.
Testing the pH level is always important, but especially when you need your plants to quickly absorb one or more nutrients. The closer the pH level is to 7, the more your plant will absorb all types of nutrients. Whatever the plant, the best way to give it a specific nutrient is to use "foliar nutrition". It means to make a tea and spray the leaves of your plants with. Just be sure not to do that in the middle of the afternoon when the temperature is high. It's better to do it early in the morning or just after sunset.
Continue reading in order to understand what nutrients they are missing from your plants, as well as some information on what exactly each nutrient does, why it is important and how to correct the deficiency.
If your plant is lacking in nitrogen, these symptoms will be seen mostly in old leaves, starting from the base to the middle of the plant. Your nitrogen-deficient cannabis will look perfectly green on top, but will yellow the further you look down. Your plant will be most at risk of having nitrogen deficiency during the flowering phase. This is because cannabis plants store the nutrients in the leaves, and during the flowering phase they need these stocks, using everything they own.
Your must be more worried if your plant is in the growing phase. It's simply because your plant needs green, healthy leaves to keep growing. If the leaves are yellow, they will not help this process.
You will need to find a way to quickly increase the amount of nitrogen your plant absorbs. Blood meal is an easy way to do this, as well as dried blood, cottonseed meal, bat guano (also called bat manure), fish meal (also known as fish emulsion name), or earthworm droppings ("manure" of earthworms). You can find each of these items in your local garden center, or else they are available on the internet.
Although the yellow leaves will never return to their green state but will simply fall out of the plant, this does not mean that your plant will not recover. If you treat it properly and quickly, your plant will recover in a few weeks, and new green leaves will replace the yolks that have been lost. Before and after adding products to the soil, be sure to test the pH level, as it could increase or decrease when you treat nutrient deficiency.
Phosphorus is mainly used to help your plant to have roots, as well as to increase the strength of these leaves and stems. It also helps seed germination making it especially important during the flowering period of your plants. Do not be tricky when you feed your phosphorus plants, it is often necessary to put large quantities.
If your plant does not absorb enough phosphorus, its growth will slow down, and it will usually appear frail and lifeless. The edges of the leaves of your cannabis plant will lose their bright green color – they will turn brown – and begin to curl up. These symptoms usually occur during the coldest days of the growing season because this is the time when marijuana plants most often have difficulty absorbing phosphorus from the soil. In addition to the cold, if the soil is too wet or too basic, the same problems will appear.
A larger infusion of phosphorus should be needed during cold weather. You can buy fertilizers and plant foods containing phosphorus. As long as the NPK ratio does not exceed 5, the substance will be useful for the phosphorus deficiency of your plants. There are also some all-purpose foods (Miracle-gro for example) that can also work. If you use them, you will need to use only half of what is recommended on the package – an overdose could be fatal for your plants.
Bone meal, earthworm droppings and bat guano can also bring some phosphorus. A more difficult solution would be to use crab shell or crabmeal. Many farmers use them for any problem that arises with their plants, but they have a special ability with phosphorus deficiencies. The results are visible in one week.
As with the other two nutrients of the three fundamentals, potassium is extremely important for your plant to function properly. Potassium is mainly responsible for the water respiration of your plant as well as resistance to most diseases. But not only, it is also useful for photosynthesis production and conversion processes. Finally, potassium assists the circulation of water, helping to move water throughout the plant, making it especially important for flowering and vegetation phases.
Plants that lack potassium will have very slow leaf growth that may look like burnt leaves on their edges and tips. Marijuana plants that are not very stiff, that can easily be twisted or broken (by you or the wind) are probably a lack of potassium. For existing mature leaves, they may be spotted and yellow in some places (between the veins first, then on the entire leaf). These leaves will also become completely yellow then die. Because marijuana plants with potassium deficiency grow more slowly, its most harmful effect is a delay in the flowering phase.
Because marijuana plants simply and easily absorb potassium, this particular deficiency should be easily fixed. Even if the pH level is not perfect, they can continue to absorb the nutrient quickly and efficiently. One way to fight the lack of potassium is to add a fertilizer that has potassium in your garden center (if you already use it). If you prefer an organic method, you can also use wood ash, kelp flour, granite dust, or potassium sulphate. You should see the results in a week.
These specific deficiencies are not the only problems that your plant may encounter, but it is a first starting point to make sure your plants have the minimum level of health they need. As long as your plants have these three basic nutrients, they will be healthy enough to make a decent crop. As with every problem you may encounter when you grow marijuana, early detection is the most important factor in keeping your plants healthy and having a successful harvest.

Q: How to access camera in nativescript? How to access camera in nativescript without opening camera activity?
I used following code but it is opening device camera application. And I am expecting it should take picture without opening camera, or add camera view in application itself like whatsapp web scan.
import cameraModule = require("camera");
import imageModule = require("ui/image");
cameraModule.takePicture().then(picture => {
    console.log("Result is an image source instance");
    var image = new imageModule.Image();
    image.imageSource = picture;
});

A: The "camera" module of NativeScript is an abstraction for the OS specific camera module which is why it opens that native interface.
In order to open a custom "nested" camera view a custom implementation would be required. Here comes the power of NativeScript and more specifically its plugin extensibility. You can either write such plugin yourself or looks for an existing one. As the idea of "nested" camera UI is very specific and would probably rely on app specific styles I was not able to find such existing plugin. Here for example you can see how something like this would be implemented in native Android, the same is probably possible in iOS also.

The backstory on how the Vikings surprised Kyle Rudolph with "Dear Kyle"
Earlier today the Minnesota Vikings released a video that has probably made you all cry already. If not, stop right here and check out the "Dear Kyle" video posted on our blog.
As referenced above, this video, or better the production of this video, was a complete surprise to Kyle...because it had to be or it wouldn't have happened.
He's a tough one to crack. He doesn't really cry at happy things, he's much more of a sentimental guy when it comes to something like [the kids].
The Vikings reached out to me and asked if I would write a letter or if I had anyone in mind that would be a good candidate to write a letter. Of course I thought of people at the hospital and the biggest one I could think of was coach [Charlie] Weiss, from college. I reached out to him and asked him to write a letter and he had the letter to me the next day! It was funny because I texted him back and said, "that was amazing, I'm balling." Him in his amazing humor responded saying, "would you expect anything less?"
When they had us come in to read the letters I had said, "you're not going to be able to tell Kyle that he has to come sit down and read letters on camera because he's not going to want to do that. He doesn't like to get emotional in front of people. I knew that it would be a tough task, so I knew that it had to be a surprise otherwise he wouldn't have done it."
So the Vikings invited Kyle in to the video studio for what they were calling a "one on one interview". When Kyle walked in, he saw the one chair, one table set and a stack of letters on the table. They told him to sit down and read them and the rest unfolded just the way that you saw in the video.

Madonna is accused of rewriting history in Abdication movie
Madonna has been accused of distorting history in a film about Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson by portraying the King as an unlikely sex symbol and the late Queen Mother as a villainous plotter. Insiders say the pop star's depiction of the couple at the centre of the 1936 Abdication crisis in W.E., her second film as a director, is overly sympathetic and largely unrecognisable.

Q: Не работает height="match_parent" из-за того, что layout имеет height="wrap_content" У меня есть ConstraintLayout (назову его example_layout), имеющий android:layout_height="wrap_content". Внутри несколько десятков кнопок, и он вполне ожидаемо масштабируется по ним.
Но нужно, чтобы одна из этих содержащихся внутри кнопок имела размеры, как у самого ConstraintLayout. Попытался так:
<Button
    android:id="@+id/example_button"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:insetTop="0dp"
    android:insetBottom="0dp"
    app:cornerRadius="25dp"
    app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="@+id/example_layout"
    app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="@+id/example_layout" />

Но тогда кнопка принимает ширину правильную, а высоту - нет. При этом, если у example_layout стоит фиксированная height, к примеру, android:layout_height="700dp", всё работает нормально, проблемы возникают именно при android:layout_height="wrap_content"

A: Для View внутри ConstraintLayout нужно использовать "0dp" вместо "match_parent"


The position of southern South America on the globe is particularly interesting for producing attractive paleoclimatic records, especially for inter-hemispheric studies due to its location in the zone of action of the westerlies, influenced by equatorial and antarctic climatic expressions. Lakes and ponds are important archives for reconstructing environmental changes influenced by the westerlies, which in turn, influence the mode and persistence of El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and precipitations, which has been tested through the historical record.
The last millennia represent an interesting time window to investigate the influence of a variety of climate forcing factors (forcing factors). In this period, two major low amplitude climate changes, are recognized worldwide, a relatively cold period: the Little Ice Age (LIA; ~ 1500-1900 years AD) when solar activity was low and the volcanoes were active; and a relatively warm period known as the Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA; 1200 years before AD). The objective of our work is to study with high resolution diatoms recovered from sedimentary sequences, the reconstruction of the environmental changes that took place. In particular, we are interested in the response of these microorganisms to a) LIA and other climate changes previously undetected, b) ENSO, (c) ACM, and (d) the influence of human activity on the accounts analyzed.

September 12, 2014 — The British Medical Journal has published a study linking the use of Biaxin (clarithromycin), a popular antibiotic, with a 76% increased risk of sudden cardiac death compared to penicillin.
The results of the study were based on data from about one million adults in Denmark between the ages of 40 and 74 who used clarithromycin, roxithromycin, or penicillin V for seven days.
There were 285 cardiac deaths observed from 1997-2011. Although clarithromycin was associated with more cardiac deaths, roxithromycin was not associated with higher risks. The risk was 2.83-fold higher with women and only 1.09-fold higher with men.
Even so, the absolute risk was small — about 37 excess cardiac deaths per 1 million courses of clarithromycin. The researchers recommended that patients with pre-existing heart problems should be aware of the risk and discuss it with their doctor.
Evidence linking certain antibiotics and heart problems has been growing for many years. In 2013, the FDA published a Safety Communication to warn about new evidence linking azithromycin (Zmax, Zithromax) with QT interval prolongation. This side effect interferes with electrical activity in the heart and can cause torsades de pointes, a life-threatening heart rhythm disorder.

Ethiopia Juggles Refugees and Shoppers Coming from Eritrea Amid New Peace
By James Jeffrey	Reprint | | Print |
*Since this story was reported, there have been reports of additional restrictions being introduced at the Zalambessa crossing point, making it harder to cross without official authorisation, while other crossing points operate more freely. The situation remains fluid.
ADDIS ABABA, Feb 6 2019 (IPS) - The sudden peace between Ethiopia and Eritrea, and the opening of their previously closed and dangerous border, sent shockwaves of hope and optimism throughout the two countries. But a new issue has arisen: whether Eritreans coming into Ethiopia should still be classed as refugees.
"Asmara! Asmara! Asmara!" There is a new cry from the boys leaning out of minibuses picking up customers in the cities of Ethiopia's Tigray region, which straddles the border with Eritrea. Here a minibus stops for a lunch break during its 300-kilometer journey between Mekelle, the Tigray capital, and the Eritrean capital, Asmara. The historic shift in Ethiopia-Eritrea relations means Eritreans can cross one of the world's former most dangerous borders without a passport or permit. Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
More nuanced reality: Eritreans cuing at the Eritrean border check point, before heading north to Asmara, illustrates how not all Eritreans want refugee status in Ethiopia, despite most media narratives leaving out the nuances and portraying an endless flow of feeling Eritreans. "I went from Addis Ababa to Asmara after the border opened to see my father for the first time in 26 years—he died 10 days after I arrived," says Senait, an Eritrean who moved to the Ethiopian capital after marrying an Ethiopian but wasn't able to visit her family after war broke out in 1998 between the two countries, thereby closing the border. "Now I am going back to take his brother, my uncle, to live in Asmara. It will be better for him to be with family there than in Addis. But I will return to my family in Ethiopia." Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Long awaited freedom of movement: The wide palm tree-lined avenues of Mekelle, and its marketplace, have seen a rush of Eritreans coming to reunite with family and enjoy the more vibrant social life and shopping scene, before returning to Eritrea. Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Long awaited freedom of movement: Once known for hosting convoys of camels carrying salt from the Danakil desert, Mekelle's bustling market has lately seen an increase in sales of cereals, construction materials and petrol. "In Eritrea they are limited to how much they can take out of the bank each month, but here they can get money sent by relatives abroad," says Teberhe, a Mekele entrepreneur. "They are taking back construction materials in case building restrictions are reduced at home." Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Shared bonds and styles: The back and forth over the border is helped by many people in Eritrea and Tigray having shared the same language, religion and cultural and social traditions going back centuries before Eritrea's independence from Ethiopia in 1993. Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Shared bonds and styles: "We have a strong affinity with Eritreans," says Mekelle resident Huey Berhe, noting how most Tigrayans have Eritrean relatives, and vice versa. "We are the same people. I can feel the agony of isolation they have endured; I have lots of friends whose families were separated by the war." Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Peace—but also prosperity?: "Business is pretty good," says Tesfaye, who usually works at the cement factory outside Mekelle but at the weekend earns extra money by exchanging Ethiopian birr and Eritrean nakfa for travelers crossing the border. "It's a good opportunity while the banks aren't changing money yet." The open border has seen merchandise and trade flowing freely both ways, and merchants in Tigray cities and in Asmara profiting by the uptick, with talk of only more economic activity to come. Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Motoring to Mekelle: Tired-looking cars with the distinctive Eritrean registration plate beginning ER1 can be seen joining minibuses on the main road through Tigray to the border or parked around Mekelle. "We've had lots of Eritreans staying," says Ruta who owns Lalibela Hotel in the center of Mekelle. There's also been a surge in room rentals in Mekelle thanks to Eritreans looking for work. Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Refugee process still continues: A worker photocopying refugee application forms at the Tigray office for Ethiopia's Administration for Refugee and Returnee Affairs, known as ARRA. "Ethiopia is a signatory to the Geneva convention on refugees, so for now there is no change in their refugee status," says Tekie Gebreyesas with ARRA. "The relationship between the two countries has improved, but the internal situation in Eritrea is still the same." Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Glued to the reforming prime minister: Lunchtime diners watch a broadcast showing Ethiopia's popular new leader, Abiy Ahmed, who shocked all by offering peace to Eritrea. The dilemma that Ethiopia now faces over Eritrean refugees reflects a challenge at a global level to better understand the realities of refugee life. "Refugees are always portrayed as victims," says Milena Belloni, who has researched Eritrean refugees for a decade. "It misses the reality, that they have capabilities and come with dreams, desires and aspirations." Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Refugees and peace not a contradiction: The Tigray city of Shire, not far from the border and where the UNHCR's regional office is, has also seen its fair share of Eritrean arriving. A UNHCR worker who wasn't willing to be quoted noted that around the world almost all countries receiving refugees do so while at peace with the country refugees are leaving—hence there is nothing unusual about Ethiopia and Eritrea reconciling while the refugee flow continues. Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS
Travel opens eyes: Ethiopian airlines has restarted flights to Asmara, though Ethiopians often choose the cheaper option of taking a domestic flight between Addis Ababa and Mekelle, before continuing by bus. The overall situation and options available remain fluid, and there could be even more changes ahead. "I don't think there is any way back now for the Eritrean government," Teberhe says. "Eritreans are experiencing freedom—the genie is out of the bottle." Credit: James Jeffrey/IPS

A car DVD to a car is just like a TV to a house. A house without TV (or computer) would be bored by people who live in it. It's the same that a car without car stereo will make drivers or passengers feel boring. So, every car comes with an original car stereo which supports radio and disc play functions. However, original car stereo is not welcome by car owners now. They want to upgrade a new car DVD like in dash car DVD GPS for their car. For the reason that, car DVD has many great functions, like GPS TV IPod Bluetooth and so on.
If I'm a car owner, I would like to collect the latest information about car DVD for my car half a year. It's ok to do this two times in a year, because car DVD is not a disposable product, you don't need to upgrade it too often. But, car DVD is one of the electronic products, it upgrades fast. If you want to follow the fashion, you can upgrade it one or two times in a year.
Since you want to upgrade your car stereo (or maybe two times in a year), it maybe a little difficult for you to choose a suitable one for your car. Actually, there are tactics to choose car DVDs.
Choose a car DVD from a regular store. A regular store would provide customer all the things that are needed in the trade, like the invoice, quality guarantee and after-sales services.
Choose a car DVD fit for your car model. A car DVD which is not design in your car model cannot install into your car, so check the detailed information of a car DVD before you buy it.
Choose a car DVD can fulfill your need. What kind of functions do you want? What do you want the unit do for you? How much can you pay for it? if you want a car DVD with GPS, at the same time, it can play music when navigating, you have to choose a car DVD with the dual zone function.
There are still many other things should be paid attention to when choosing a car DVD player, but the three advices mentioned above should be noticed first. If you are still confused with this, here's an example for you.

If you missed Monday night's first-ever 'UFO Crash' and Flash Mob event in Olde Burien, you missed a LOT – including at least 40 people dressed up in amazing costumes, as Men in Black, Women in Black and/or Aliens.
In addition to being a great excuse to enjoy April Fool's Day and support local businesses, the event also served to commemorate the upcoming production of "The Maury Island Incident," a short film about a long-forgotten UFO sighting that included what many consider to be the first "Man in Black" experience, as well as the tragic deaths of two Army Air Force investigators. The film is slated to begin production locally in June.

The organisation and staff work to ensure that each accommodation they provide has every comfort a home deserves.
Holistic Horizons was born with their first client in October of 2016.
With the NDIS approaching, the organisation saw that services needed to change and it saw the need for support services that were more participant-focused, revolving around their goals and their wishes.
As the NDIS rolled out, the organisation continued to grow, as word of their fresh, client-centred approach reached more and more people.
In 2017, Hub Redcliffe was added to provide a respite facility and a base for group activities, continuing in their mission to ensure affordable services delivered to the highest quality.
Holistic Horizons established an office in the Redcliffe Peninsula in 2019, and that same year began offering support coordination services, in addition to their community access, in-home and respite services.
Last year, the organisation started helping participants to transition into medium-term accommodation arrangements and supported independent living after acquiring a package of accommodation and support.
Holistic Horizons now have multiple Short Term Accommodation (Respite) and Supported Independent Living (SIL) properties across Moreton Bay and the North Brisbane areas.
In March this year, they opened an office in Caboolture to address their rapidly growing participant base in that region.
The dedicated Holistic Horizons team is available to its participants 24 hours a day, seven days a week. "No matter the time or the situation, our carers are here".
Holistic Horizons believes in an inclusive, collaborative approach to disability support.
