Xbox One Review: I'm Sorry I Raised My Voice
It's just, like, ugh, you know? You never listen.
By Colin Lecher
I wouldn't say a lost my temper with the Xbox One. Because I actually, for the most part, enjoyed the experience. But I did raise my voice. And for that I apologize.
Everything about Microsoft's new game console, its first in eight years, is designed to make you do as little as possible. That means running multiple apps at the same time, a "snap" function to plop stuff on-screen into a picture-in-picture style, and--_eek_--a reliance on voice controls.
I share the blame, Xbox One. I do. I am a mumbler. I have difficulty expressing myself at times. I rushed too quickly to say Xbox One, get it together, to which you pulled up the "weather" option. (Ha! Defusing the situation. You are too funny, Xbox One.)
We should let it go. Because I liked you, Xbox One. We should talk more. Later, though. Now's a bad time.
_Oof. _All right, then. Let's just get the worst thing out of the way. The Xbox One is a not-particularly-attractive _behemoth _of a game console. It's the size of a small suitcase and heavy as one stuffed with sheet-metal. The shape is hard to describe beyond "box"--very few ridges, curves, or any other shapes to variate the monolithic design. It's like a VCR that's metastasized in your living room. I thought I had reserved ample room for any console, since that had been the case for any other console I've put there. That was not the case. If you are planning to travel with the Xbox One, remove those plans from your itinerary. Actually, whatever table or surface you place it on, be prepared to keep it there forever. Actually, just be prepared to die in whatever home/apartment/cavern you currently reside in. The Xbox One isn't going anywhere.
There's also a new controller. There are a list of changes Microsoft has been touting--like a vibrate function on the triggers, and a redesigned, less bulky spot for the batteries--and, yeah, it's a little better. But the truth is in practice it doesn't feel all that different, at least when stacked up to the more drastic changes Sony made to its controller for the new PlayStation 4. If you were a huge fan of the Xbox 360 controller, then fine, you'll be happy with this. Otherwise, if you're looking for huge changes in the console, you'll have to find something elsewhere.
Booting Up
If you've set up any console in your life, the Xbox One set-up will be painless: connect the wire in back to the wall, the other wire to the TV, etc. There is one extra step, though, that I'd recommend taking the time to do: the new Xbox can also be wired through your cable-box through HDMI, allowing you to watch TV by selecting it on the Xbox's main screen. (Same goes for the HDMI-friendly media streamer of your choice; I used a Roku.) More on that in a minute.
Here I should mention: I think but can't readily confirm that I had a glitch with my Xbox. When I first booted up the console, it took me straight to the Xbox's home screen, without the usual registration process. There, the controller wouldn't function properly. I don't know who, if anyone, will have this issue, but it was solved after a quick reset.
Here I should also mention: the reset process takes forever. You boot up, are brought to the big, green Xbox One load screen, and then you go grab a snack or take out the garbage or something while you wait it out. Unfortunate, since the Xbox One home screen actually looks pretty nice after it's done loading. Microsoft's tile system, which is now loaded on every one of its devices, is here again, and doesn't look too different from the last Xbox incarnation. Things are little more organized, and the Xbox automatically moves the titles for apps and games you played most recently to the front of the screen, assuming that those are what you'll most likely use again. Notifications pop up on the bottom of the screen in much the same way as last time around, and there are the same slots reserved for places where you can buy games, apps, and music. (An image of an angsty Eminem promoting some tunes has been permanently etched into my brain.) But there's a greater focus on features besides games. Which brings us to...
I said this in my PlayStation 4 review, but I'll say it again: the specific technical details in a system aren't as important as the functionality you get from those specs. That said, it has similar specs to the PlayStation 4: a combination of CPU and GPU processors meant to divide the work of processing graphics and other tasks. But the results are a little different: the biggest change behind the Xbox One--and the best one--is the ability to instantly stop playing a game with a single button and enter your home screen. No more save-and-quit, no more shutting off one thing to open up something else. The processors divert processing power to the game, and the rest goes to the ancillary apps. None of that affected the performance of either, in my experience. That's a big deal. You can turn on a dime with the Xbox One, not feel stuck because you're playing a game and suddenly realizing there was something else you wanted to do first. Then, once you're done with your other task, you go back directly to the game, picking up exactly where you left off.
Now I can simply run my Roku through the Xbox instead of going directly through the TV.
There's also a new Kinect, Microsoft's motion-capturing camera that comes bundled with the new Xbox One. And it's better, with a wider range of vision and better resolution--enough to scan your face to sign you in. (I'll go on record, again, saying this still gives me the heebie-jeebies. But it's also undoubtedly cool tech.) As much as I disdain voice controls, the commands I sent to the Kinect worked okay. _Not great, just fine. Although since certain functions, like the otherwise great "snap" function, which lets you pull up a separate window to multi-task, rely wholly on the technology, it should be flawless, even at a whisper. (Update for clarification: _You can manually select the snap function with a controller on the homescreen, but, obviously, to switch between functions when you're already doing something, you'll need to use voice control.)
But I do love the option of routing my cable box or media streamer through my Xbox. Between multiple game consoles and a Roku, I'm already taking up a lot of wire and wall space. Now I can simply run my Roku through the Xbox instead of going directly through the TV. After that, just select the TV option on the Xbox home screen, and you're directed to your TV. Maybe that's not life-changing, but it frees up a wire and a little time if I want to multi-task between gaming and TV-watching.
Here it is! Games! For the game console. The PlayStation 4 lineup turned out to be incredibly underwhelming, but the Xbox One lineup, oh man, let me tell you: it is also incredibly underwhelming.
I'll start with the positive: Ryse: Son of Rome, a semi-melodramatic sword-and-sandals epic, probably takes too much glee in its eviscerations of barbarians, but looks like it could be one of the bright spots at launch, as one of the only truly original properties in the stable.
Now the bad: a digital title called _Crimson Dragon _is one of the worst games I have played in recent memory. You ride a space dragon that shoots, like, missiles at other space dragons. There's some kind of government conspiracy. Or aliens? No, wait, _you're _the alien. Maybe. I don't know.
There's another installment in the Forza racing game franchise that certainly looks nice on the new system, but doesn't seem to offer much beyond the standard racing game fare. There are a few new sports games, the animal-management bureaucracy simulator Zoo Tycoon, and a slew of titles that have already appeared on the last system. As disappointing as Sony's list of games turned out to be, you're not going to find much on Microsoft's end, either.
Should You Buy This?
No. Wait. You don't need something to hook up through your TV right now, unless it has games to accompany it, and the Xbox One, as cool as some of its features are, has a dearth of games. You can wait. How long? That's up to you: whenever there's a sum of games that make it worthwhile to you, go for it. (That could theoretically be right now, but I'll venture to say it isn't, even for even the most die-hard gamers.)
Now comes the point where I tell you whether the Xbox One or PlayStation 4 is the King of the Console Generation. But I'm not going to do that--especially this early. I might sound overly diplomatic here, but there are reasons to root for both. I wasn't a huge fan of the PS4, but at $400, it's $100 cheaper than the Xbox One. The interface isn't as forward-thinking, but maybe you want something that puts more focus on games. Maybe, too, you want something more mobile.
Regardless, though, the most important part of a system is still games. And it remains to be seen which console will make the biggest leaps in that field. You can wait to find out.

Palladium – A Metal Rarer Than Gold
Welcome to Clandestine Web. As a website that is dedicated to consumers all over the world, you can find several great deals and hard to find products on our website. We specialize in the quirky to the tech-related products. And not only that, we are also selling these items less than what most of our competitors can offer.
Palladium, source Wikipedia
Palladium is a rare element that was discovered in 1803 William Hyde Wollaston. This discovery was accidental when platinum was dissolved in hydrochloric and nitric acid that left behind a residue which was named Pallas. It was initially sold as the next silver, until other scientists revealed it as an alloy. It has an atomic number of 46 and is symbolized as Pd.It is part of the platinum group of metals.
Uses of Palladium
Palladium was initially used to treat tuberculosis, but this practice soon became extinct due to the many side effects that palladium caused. Use of it in jewelry started in 1939, but it became popular only in 1980's. Use is now also made of this metal in catalytic converters, and in many other industries mainly in electronics and for the purification of hydrogen. It absorbs 900 times more hydrogen than any other metal. By itself, the metal is quite nontoxic.
Use as a Catalyst
Palladium is a silver-white metal that has good plasticity and ductility and stable and is chemically inert in air under normal conditions. However, when heated to 800°C when a film of oxide forms on its surface. When divided finely and has carbon added to it, it forms a versatile catalyst that speeds up processes like hydrogenation, petroleum cracking and many other highly selective chemical formations. Palladium catalysts are used in organic chemistry and many other industrial applications. It has lately been used as nano particles for synthetic biology, which gives it an ability to treat disease.
Use in Electronics
Palladium is used in an alloy with silver to form electrodes needed to make ceramic capacitors. It is also used, often as an alloy with nickel for palladium plating components and connections, and in material used for soldering. Over 40 tonnes of this rare metal are used annually in the electronic industry and this constitutes over 80% of its annual output.
Palladium is also used for hydrogen storage because of its property to absorb and makes for a safe hydrogen storage medium. Small quantities of this metal are also used in the form of dental amalgam that is corrosion resistant. It has been used in jewelry, as a precious metal, since 1939 as white gold. Just like gold, it can be beaten in to thin leaf. In jewelry its use is made after heating in controlled conditions. Palladium is used to coat pen nibs and other luxury items. Photographers use palladium slats to make fine-art black and white prints.
The Production of Palladium
Most palladium in use in the world come from South Africa, United States and Canada, though it is also found in South America, Australia, Ethiopia, and the Ural Mountains. Recycling of electronic waste also is a fairly large source of palladium used around the world.
It is found as a residue in the production of other metals like nickel. Dehydrogenation is used to take advantage of the chemical difference between the metals to help in the production of palladium.
Palladium is part of the group of precious metals that form an attraction for investors.

Seattle Teen Driver Accident Lawyers | Davis Law Group, P.S.
In Washington state, teenage drivers are held to the same safety standards as an adult. Teen drivers are three times more likely to be involved in a fatal car accident than any other age group. Younger drivers have a duty to exercise reasonable care and to avoid causing motor vehicle accidents.
As you'll read below, there are a variety of different factors that influence a teen driver accident case.
If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in an automobile accident caused by a teen driver, contact Davis Law Group by calling (206) 727-4000 for a case review or to schedule a free legal consultation.
The Washington Traffic Safety Education Association (WTSEA), the professional organization for public and commercial driving school teachers, has recognized Davis Law Group twice with a special Distinguished Service Award. Every year drivers education teachers across the state give away thousands of copies of Davis' booklet Teen Drivers & The Law: What Every Parent In Washington State Needs To Know About Parental Legal & Financial Liability For Auto Accidents Caused By Teen Drivers.
Davis Law Group has been named Best Injury Law Firm in Washington State by AI Dispute Resolution Awards and Best Traffic Accident Firm in Washington State by Legal Elite for commitment and excellence in serious motor vehicle accident claims.
Attorney Chris Davis is often featured by local or national new media covering accident-related issues and/or some of his cases. You may have him on local stations such as KING5, KOMO4, KIRO7 and Q13Fox. In fact, Davis recently gave an extensive teen driver accident interview to KIRO radio.
"...a very special person told me that I really deserved nothing but the best counsel to get through this. So she insisted on Davis Law Group"
"Chris' clients know they have an advocate and a partner on their journey to recovery....He is 'the man.'"
In 10 percent of fatal crashes involving a teen driver in 2016, the teen driver was distracted at the time of the crash. In 2016, there were 2,288 motor vehicle traffic fatalities in crashes that involved passenger vehicle teen drivers aged 15 to 18 years old.
About 35 percent of young drivers are driving recklessly and/or speeding at the time of the collision. It is estimated that on average, for every driver age 15 to 17 killed in a crash, there are nearly two other people who are killed in the accident Car accidents remain the number one cause of death of people 16 to 20 years old.
If you are involved in a crash with a teen driver, or your son or daughter has been involved in a collision, you may benefit from the services of a personal injury attorney. Contact Davis Law Group today at (206) 727-4000, use the chat feature below or fill out the form on this page to get started.
Inexperience. Teens are more likely to underestimate the amount of time required to safety stop or make a turn. Additionally, teens are less likely to recognize dangerous driving conditions. The first 500 miles for a teenager are the most critical. During this time, they are 10 times more likely to be in auto crashes than adult drivers.
Immaturity. Teen drivers tend to be very impatient and juvenile. They may constantly switch driving lanes, race other drivers, and speed up to 100 mph trying to beat a red light.
Distraction. About 32 percent of high school students nationwide have texted or emailed while driving. Fifty-six percent of teens admit to talking on cell phones while driving. Talking on a cell phone can double the likelihood of an accident and can slow a young driver's reaction time to that of a 70-year-old.
Speeding. Nearly one-third of all fatal teen car crashes involve speeding. Whatever the reason, speeding is a dangerous habit among teenage drivers and significantly increases their risk of being in an accident.
Friends. Having other teen passengers in the car has been shown to increase the likelihood of high risk driving behaviors among teenage drivers.
Impaired. About 25 percent of fatal teen car accidents involve underage drinking and driving.
Motor vehicle collisions involving a teen driver are a leading cause of bodily injury in Washington state and throughout the United States. And although no two car accident cases are alike, some types of injuries are more common in auto accident cases than others.
Lower Back Injuries: Lower back injuries can range from general sprains and strains to torn ligaments or broken vertebrae. Getting a clear diagnosis of your injuries after a collision is crucial to building a strong case.
Torn Ligaments: Ligament injuries can take a long time to materialize or become apparent. Certain types of imaging may not detect torn ligaments, so a thorough review of medical records and treatment recommendations is important.
Traumatic Brain Injury: Head and brain injuries are common in motor vehicle collisions because occupants' heads can jolt and impact other stationary objects inside of the vehicle, such as a steering wheel, dashboard, or window.
Spinal Cord Injury: The violent motion of a vehicular accident can cause injuries to the spine or spinal cord. These injuries are very serious and can potentially lead to life-changing conditions such as paralysis or loss of function.
Herniated & Bulging Discs: Discs provide critical support to the spine, but herniated or bulging discs are extremely painful and can make it difficult to walk or perform basic tasks.
Pregnancy Complications: Pregnant mothers are extremely vulnerable in the event of a crash, and a serious collision can cause harm to a developing baby.
Fractures & Broken Bones: Broken bones are often painful and may require expensive medical treatment, including surgery, in order to make a full recovery.
Lacerations: Large cuts can result in significant blood loss, infection, permanent scarring, and other complications that can complicate the auto accident claims process.
Burn Injuries: High-impact crashes may lead to a vehicle catching fire, and burn injuries can take a great deal of time to recover from - both physically and emotionally.
Amputations: In extreme cases, accident victims may suffer injuries to an extremity that require amputation. Victims in these cases typically experience severe psychological and emotional trauma.
Wrongful Death: Automobile accidents are one of the leading causes of death in the United States, and family members who suffer the loss of a loved one may pursue a wrongful death claim against the at-fault party.
Head-On Crashes: When two vehicles collide head-on, the violent impact can cause very serious injuries or death. These collisions often involve a drowsy or distracted driver, or someone who is driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Hit-And-Run Collisions: Tracking down the responsible driver after a hit-and-run collision can be difficult. The right team of investigators and attorneys on your side can make all the difference.
Rollover Accidents: Rollover accidents typically occur in situations where a vehicle is trying to avoid a collision, such as with another vehicle or an object or animal in the roadway. Defective vehicles and negligent roadway design can also play a role in these types of crashes.
Rear-End Collisions: While liability for a rear-end crash typically rests on the following vehicle, it's still important to conduct a thorough investigation into the collision and determine other possible contributing factors.
T-Bone (Side-Impact) Collisions: T-bone accidents are perhaps most common at intersections where one driver has run a stop sign or red light. These collisions typically occur at high-speeds and leave innocent victims with serious, life-changing injuries.
Pedestrian Accidents: Pedestrians are vulnerable to serious injury in a collision because, unlike motorists, they are not protected by a vehicle. Liability can be difficult to prove in pedestrian accident cases, and in many cases witness testimony is crucial.
Parking Lot Accidents: Parking lots are private property, which can cause a number of legal issues in the event of an accident. Accidents can be serious even at low speeds, and often involve pedestrians or bicyclists.
Bicycle Accidents: Bicyclists share the road with motorists, but the size difference and visibility issues create a significant risk of serious injury or death. Bicyclists often do not have their own insurance, which means a thorough investigation is necessary.
Freeway On-Ramp Or Off-Ramps: Improperly or illegally-parked vehicles can cause a serious collision on the on-ramp or off-ramp of a freeway or highway. Injuries are often serious because of the high speed nature of accidents that occur on a freeway or highway.
Illegal Turns: Illegal left-hand turns and U-turns at traffic signals or in uncontrolled intersections can lead to a serious accident, and liability may be disputed.
Side-Swipes: At low speeds, a side-swipe accident is likely to be minor and result in very little, if any, injury. At high speeds, however, the sudden impact and drivers' reactions can cause a major collision with extensive damage and potentially serious injuries.
Because of the unique liability and insurance (typically a parent is the insurance policy holder) issues related to car accidents caused by teenagers, victims of the following types of incidents would be well advised to discuss their legal options with an attorney to make sure that they are fairly compensated for injuries, harms and losses.
What if the Teen was Not At-Fault?
Insurance companies will often automatically place some percentage of blame on the teen, even if the teen was not at fault (because teens so often are at fault). Teens who were injured in a crash should contact an attorney to protect their legal rights and to make sure they are compensated for their injuries.
If you're a parent, you know the worry that comes with having a teen driver. If you're a teenager, you've probably heard lectures about the privilege and responsibility of operating a motor vehicle. If you the victim of an accident caused by a teen driver then you know the frustration that comes with knowing that the collision was caused by an inexperienced driver.
Parents (and parents' insurance) can be held responsible for compensating people injured by their child. The circumstances of the child's acts determine the existence and degree of parental liability. Each case is a unique situation involving various types of negligent or willful acts of children. In civil matters, the most common negligent acts of minors are in car accidents.
Some people are reluctant to file an insurance claim, hire an attorney, or engage in a legal action out of concern for the parents of the teen driver. Auto insurance compensation (settlements, awards, etc.) options are available without necessarily financially damaging the parents of the teen's parents.
To learn more about parental liability for accidents caused by teen drivers get our free report: Teen Drivers & The Law: What Parents Need To Know About Legal & Financial Liability.
Excuses made by teen drivers do not negate liability for auto accidents. The reality is that many teens who are behind the wheel are simply not be ready for the responsibility of driving.
If you or someone you know has been injured in an accident involving a teen driver, or your teenage son or daughter was in an accident, contact our Washington state car accident attorneys at Davis Law Group as soon as possible. For a free case evaluation, call (206) 727-4000.
?What is the 'Family Car Doctrine'?


just to give you a reminder of the things we've been doing.
coming up in a nice overview that way.
we did in the introduction to Week 3, one of several we did.
one of Einstein's very famous quotations.
the context of Einstein's religious beliefs.
Really as sort of a cosmic religion.
but the marvelous structure of reality.
And so this quote actually though fits in with one of the major topics of the week.
And that is the Michelson-Morely experiment.
Because the origin of this quote was in the early 1920s.
Einstein was visiting the United States.
just released results that seemed to show there was an ether wind.
the Michelson-Morley experiment had a null result.
This experiment seemed to show a result that was active there, a positive result.
There seemed to be some effect from an ether wind.
this because by this time he was getting more and more famous.
her essential loftiness, but not by means of a trick or ruse.
too foundational that it would be incorrect at that point.
because often we think well, if you get an experimental result, you must accept it.
And therefore, you have to throw away the theory.
you really have to be careful about just blindly accepting experimental results.
And in this case, actually, it took a number of years.
This new result in the early 1920s.
the apparatus that may have called the positive result instead of the nul result.
So just a reminder about that.
about the role of the Michelson-Morley experiment in Einstein's thinking.
well before 15 years more like 18 years or so before.
And built his theory around that, which is the way science should be done.
it was not instrumental in his thinking for the special theory of relativity.
In later years he sometimes mentioned it, sometimes he didn't.
in terms of exactly what happened, when you're actually developing the theory.
one other, just side comment here too.
Einstein's June 1905 paper, you may have noticed, very few, if any footnotes there.
He gives a shout out to his friend, Mihail Beso.
For the inspiration for some of his ideas.
experiments that seemed to show these null results, doesn't give a footnote for it.
he was trying to take all the glory for himself.
You have to remember, 26 years old, really not in the academic world at this point.
the libraries were only open when he was working.
And there's his whole approach.
his special theory of relativity.
he did express it that way.
later on described it as he realized that time was suspect in some fashion.
how that gets worked out, but that's for next week.
within six weeks he had published his paper in June 1905.
one if the coil was moving toward the magnet.
One involving electric field, one a magnetic field.
He felt there should be one explanation there, not two separate explanations.
which was a big topic in week two.
But there's this other principle.
So that was one of his two postulates, the principle of relativity.
The second postulate was what he called the principle of light constancy.
say a light wave, a flashlight that's moving towards you.
Or a paddle device joining the water waves that's moving towards you.
The velocity, the speed of the wave would not be effected.
this principle like constant fits in to Einstein's arguments here.
So, we spent some time on a few words about waves.
maybe there was more than a few words about waves.
waves coming together are just out of phase with each other.
Or exactly 180 degrees out of phase with each other.
If they're in phase, meaning the peaks and the troughs all match up.
You get constructive interference, so it essentially magnifies the wave.
then it negates the wave, it gets rid of the wave, it cancels out.
And then we cited three key facts about wave speed.
One key fact is that the speed of a wave depends on the medium.
depend on the characteristics of the water itself, characteristics of the fluid.
you'll get a different speed for the waves.
So, speed of the wave, through the medium, depends on the medium itself.
which actually we just cited is Einstein's principle of light constancy.
In other words, a moving source of waves does not change the velocity of the waves.
paddle device that's generating waves and if that then starts moving towards you.
there or it's actually moving toward you or even away from you.
In all cases, the speed of the waves past you is going to be the same.
Same thing with, well, we also have the example with train whistler or train horn.
it's the same speed as if the train were just standing still.
the pitch of the waves, but it does not affect the speed of the waves.
And for light, imagine a flashlight over there.
if the flashlight is stationary, I'll get the speed of light.
the speed of light, I get the same speed.
So in that case, that's just a result from basic wave theory.
the electromagnetic theory going back to Maxwell, James Clerk Maxwell.
a moving source for a wave does not effect the velocity of the wave.
Third key fact is that a moving medium does affect the velocity.
the video, I'm not quite sure I was as clear as I could have made it.
I've got the paddle device over there.
And so they're coming by me at some velocity.
a current in the swimming pool if you have one of those fancy swimming pools.
it's sitting over there generating waves, then, yes, the waves do go past me faster.
the speed of the medium moving by, plus the speed of the waves through the medium.
flowing by me plus the speed of the waves through the medium, faster wave velocity.
then the waves going by me will be slowed down a little bit.
So those were the three key facts about wave speed.
The wave speed does depend on the medium.
And then this idea that a moving medium will affect the speed of the waves.
this is what we'll be talking about.
As the Earth moves around the Sun presumably it is moving through the ether.
we'll call it the ether.
developed at this point into the idea of a luminiferous ether.
it must be moving through the ether.
you must have an ether wind, an ether breeze flowing past you.
must build it during an experiment maybe to detect that ether wind.
And that's what Michelson and Morley were trying do in the 1880's.
because that's essentially what Michelson-Morley were doing with light.
sent them on two different paths.
then tailwind with the ether back to the the original starting point.
The other beam went crosswind with the ether.
takes a little bit longer than the cross wind case does.
And so that's what they were trying to measure essentially.
as the Earth goes around the Sun, then we should be able to see this effect.
going crosswind, with the ether wind, there should be a slight time difference.
measure that time difference, then we should see the effects of the ether.
seconds, they didn't have the technology that could detect it.
the two waves recombined, he will look at the slight phase difference between them.
then when they come back together again, they'll be slightly out of phase.
which Michelson-Morley's experimental techniques could detect.
So, they set it up.
Well, as we talked about in the video lecture, they got a null result.
that was less than point, something like zero, zero, zero, five fringes.
And this was a huge problem because it was like, where is the ether?
Where is the effect of the ether?
It's got to be there.
You gotta have the ether so you have light waves.
Light waves have to travel through something.
There have to be a disturbance of some sort of medium.
So one idea was, well maybe at the surface of the Earth there's a drag on the ether.
Somehow the Earth itself drags the ether long, so were sort of in a pocket.
to protect from all external influences and vibrations and things like that.
basements as well as up on the surface or something like that.
Or up on mountains, later experiments were done on mountains as well.
So whole question is, maybe there's this ether drag effect.
why we don't see the influence of the ether wind that should be there.
The velocity of light in our experiment.
there is no ether drag effect of the surface of the earth.
talked about was Stellar aberration.
say toward a telescope at the North Pole or near the North Pole.
be able to point the telescope directly at the star, say straight up.
because, actually the Earth is moving around the Sun.
that you don't have to tilt the telescope, the light comes right down.
And, we drew some pictures of that, to get a better idea of that.
named James Bradley had, actually he's looking for something else.
he discovered that actually you do have to tilt your telescope slightly.
And that was evidence that there was no ether drag.
That the Earth actually moved right through the ether.
And we use the example of sort of running through raindrops.
if you don't want to get wet from the raindrops falling up ahead of you.
Same thing here, the light, really coming from that star.
Imagine I'm on the Earth here, I'm moving this way with my telescope.
And the light from the stars coming down and it's going to land right there.
But my telescope, I've gotta catch it when it's right here.
The light's coming straight down, hitting right here.
So it needs to enter my telescope.
So because the Earth is moving and the light gets down here.
The bottom of my telescope, say my elbow, is going to be here.
the opening of the telescope has to be here.
where it's going to be my telescope the bottom mirror is at that point.
when we did the Stellar aberration be the lecture or not.
therefore that was indication the Earth does not drag the ether along.
results that said that there's no effect of ether wind.
And therefore maybe the ether is dragged.
I think I realized also I've been inconsistent in my spelling of ethereal.
E-A-L might be slightly preferred but I'll try to be consistent here.
So if you notice that, hopefully I didn't bother you too much.
then later by Lorentz in a more sophisticated mathematical fashion.
particles and later on the electrons and so on and so forth.
there'd be a slight compression of that object as it moves through the ether.
apparatus perfectly made up for the slower head wind tailwind effect.
That should be and it'll all cancel out and that's why you get the null result.
So it's called the Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction.
Mathematician, of what I've called the Mathematics of time.
The idea being that in these, again, very sophisticated theories.
abstract notion of time that's slightly different in certain cases.
Not in reality of course but just in the theory, then things worked out better.
is a little screwy with time.
But they hadn't actually gone beyond just sort of the mathematics of it.
And so then that's when Einstein comes in.
and make them postulates as the basis for his theory.
which seemed to be in conflict with each other.
essentially there's no absolute frame of rest.
Constant velocity in motion is relative.
I'm motionless, so if somebody goes by me I see them with some velocity.
they're motionless and I'm the who's moving.
no absolute frame of reference or as of state of rest.
Principle light constancy however said that there's an ether.
that's the inherent contradiction of the two postulates.
Einstein said, I'm going to take them both as true and see what the implications are.
You find that the speed of light is constant for all observers.
remember let's say we have the flashlight moving towards us.
the flashlight's moving towards us, we still get the same speed for light.
stationary and I'm the one who's moving, so I'm moving through the medium, right?
Speed of light is still constant.
that's not how normal waves work.
If I'm moving through the medium, I should see a difference in the speed of the wave.
the conclusion that, no light is different when we're talking about light as a wave.
the speed of light is constant no matter how you're moving.
the flashlight's moving toward you, or some combination of that.
it does not change when the medium supposedly is moving.
he says, note that this means that either is really superfluous.
It is a concept we don't need.
And again a lot of people said, what?
We have to have ether.
How else do you explain light waves going through space?
based on two very fundamental postulates that the speed of light is constant.
we'll run into things such as time being suspect.
is really where the weirdness begins.
Things like time dilation, length contraction, and the like.
So, that's, I know how brief that was.
but a summary of key topics in Week 3 and a few other points, besides that.
idea of where they're going in Week 3.
watch this or that a little bit more.
the of the theory and the weird results that come out of.
Just taking these two postulates as proven.


Drive sales on Black Friday and Cyber Monday by understanding consumers' emotions and motivations during the apex of the shopping year, courtesy of a company that studies exactly that.
Yesterday, Persado — which analyzes "the language and emotions that resonate with consumers to increase engagement and build powerful relationships" — provided five tips to help marketers do so.
Use Emotions to Drive Action: According to Persado, emotional language on average contributes 60 percent to the performance of a message, as compared to other message elements, such as descriptive language, calls to action, formatting and positioning. Marketers should keep in mind that the most effective emotions on Black Friday are different from the ones most likely to drive action on Cyber Monday.
Emojis Are Your Friend: Don't be afraid to use emojis, but use them sparingly (when in doubt, limit it to one per subject line). Avoid using clichéd emojis that imply time limitations like ⌛ … and ⌚as they aren't strong performers for Black Friday/Cyber Monday.
BIG Discounts Win: If you plan to call out how much people will save, you better make it big. Savings greater than 50 percent are worth mentioning in your subject line, but if you can offer a promo code rather than a general site-wide discount, engagement rates could spike even higher.
Don't Supersize It: Oversize adjectives (huge savings, save big, major deals, massive offers) don't drive attention during crowded events like Black Friday/Cyber Monday. Instead, try incorporating enthusiastic ways of describing discounts (amazing, awesome, incredible).
Don't Limit Your Sales: Consumers are less likely to open or click when presented with messages like "limited-time offers" or "while supplies last." It feeds the assumption that they've already missed out on the deal.

Ranking Tiger Woods' 15 major championships: Where does 2019 Masters fall?
After winning the 2019 Masters for his 15th major victory, Tiger Woods is now just three major titles away from Jack Nicklaus' seemingly untouchable record of 18 major championships.
When it comes to accomplishing the seemingly impossible, nobody has done it more than Woods. From his first major win at the 1997 Masters to now, the 43-years-old has created some of the greatest moments in the history of golf on the sport's biggest stages.
That begs the questions … which major was his best? His worst?
This is clearly a subjective subject, but that won't stop your friends at Golfweek from giving our opinion and ranking Woods' career major titles:
15. 2006 PGA Championship
Woods cruised to a five-shot victory that was never in jeopardy. He played some impressive golf to earn his 12th major title and third PGA Championship. Nothing really stuck out from this one. It was the 20th birthday of major victories for Woods: Sure, it's a nice milestone, but not a very big nor important one.
14. 2002 Masters
Woods defended his Masters' title, becoming just the third person to do so alongside Jack Nicklaus and Sir Nick Faldo. Other than that, this three-shot victory was pretty average for Woods.

13. 2005 Open Championship
Woods weathered the metaphorical storm at the Old Course to win his second Open Championship. His challengers, however, did not, leading to yet another lopsided victory.
A 12 foot birdie putt on No. 15 with just a one-shot lead is the only thing keeping the 2007 PGA at No. 12 and not dead-last. Woods avoided a late charge from the likes of Woody Austin and Ernie Els en route to a major title for the third consecutive year.
Woods made the Old Course look like your local municipal track. The Big Cat shot 67-66-67-69 en route to a 19-under victory, eight shots clear of runners-up Thomas Bjorn and Ernie Els to achieve his Career Grand Slam.

10. 2002 U.S. Open
The win at Bethpage was the end of an impressive run of seven wins in the last 11 majors, but we think Padraig Harrington described it best:
"You could say he won this tournament with his B game."
9. 1999 PGA Championship
A late charge from a 19-year-old Spaniard named Sergio Garcia was a great test for Woods, and an unfortunate tease for many duels that never followed. The one-shot win was Woods' first PGA Championship and second major title.
8. 2006 Open Championship
Still dealing with the death of his father, Earl Woods, Tiger broke down in tears after making the final putt on the 18th green to finish off a two-shot victory over Chris DiMarco.
7. 2001 Masters
"But how is the completion of the 'Tiger Slam' seventh on this list?"
That's how impressive Woods' career has been.

The famous duel with Bob May. Just watch and enjoy.
Need we say more than chip-in at 16? Move over, Gene Sarazen's "shot heard 'round the world," because this one from Woods is now probably the greatest shot in golf history.
4. 2000 U.S. Open
Sure, this was about as close as a 100-meter race between Usain Bolt and a tortoise, but a 15-shot win at Pebble Beach in what's supposed to be the most difficult event of the year deserves to be in the top five.
Oh, and guess who's hosting the 2019 U.S. Open? (It's Pebble).
Torn ACL with stress fractures in his leg? No problem for Woods, who drained a 12-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole to force an 18-hole playoff with Rocco Mediate that needed a sudden-death hole of its own.
The picture says it all.

This year's performance at Augusta National will never be forgotten. It's the only of Woods' 15 major titles where he wasn't leading or co-leading entering the final round, and it's a win that Woods never thought would come two years ago.
The moment with his family walking off 18 green says it all.
The moment Tiger's been waiting for. He always said Charlie and Sam never knew Tiger Woods, they just knew Dad.

Everyone knew it wouldn't take Woods too long to win his first major.
His first green jacket in 1997 was undoubtedly his greatest because not only did he win at Augusta National by 12 strokes, he did so as a young African-American man at a place that accepted its first black member just seven years prior in 1990. From the dominance to the historical significance and foreshadowing of the greatness to come, only a record-setting 19th major title could ever potentially top this.

Adobe Photoshop, or simply Photoshop, is a graphics editor developed and published by Adobe Systems. It is the current market leader for commercial bitmap and image manipulation, and is the flagship product of Adobe Systems. It has been described as "an industry standard for graphics professionals." Although originally designed to edit images for paper-based printing, Photoshop can also be used for a wide range of other professional and amateur purposes.
In 1987, Thomas Knoll, then a PhD student at the University of Michigan, began writing a program on his Macintosh Plus to display grayscale images on a monochrome display. This program, called Display, caught the attention of his brother John Knoll, an Industrial Light & Magic employee, who recommended Thomas turn it into a full-fledged image editing program. Thomas took a six month break from his studies in 1988 to collaborate with his brother on the program, which had been renamed ImagePro. Later that year, Thomas renamed his program Photoshop and worked out a short-term deal with scanner manufacturer Barneyscan to distribute copies of the program (under the name Barneyscan XP) with their scanners.

Well, the mystery's now solved. Turns out he had a problem with … performing basic duties.
Greene is "usually capable of handling mundane tasks with supervision" but is "not able to adapt to any changes to daily routine," the reviewer wrote, also noting that Greene had received multiple disciplinary actions for failing to perform his duties.
Most seriously, the reviewer wrote that Greene would represent" a threat to others" because of his inability to grasp the basics of military training.

The Immortalization of Notorious B.I.G and Tupac Shakur
June 5, 2013 by deadendhiphop
September 13, 1996 and March 19, 1997 are two dates that changed the entire landscape of hip hop forever. These are the dates that mark the historic losses of the extremely prolific rappers, Tupac Shakur and Notorious B.I.G. Their mark on hip hop, which is almost as immeasurable as the effects of their music, as well as the overall package that came with each dynamic personality, are deeply rooted in the genre of rap music today and for the foreseeable future.
They will forever be fixtures in hip hop and rightfully so, however, it is also widely accepted that, if not for their unfortunate demises, Tupac and Biggie would still be dominant forces in music today. The reason for this is because they were both fresh off their most critically acclaimed releases shortly before they were murdered. Tupac had released All Eyez on Me, which was filled with gangsta raps as well as thought-provoking tracks riddled with social commentary. The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory was also recorded shortly before Tupac's death but was a posthumous release. Biggie's final album, Life After Death, was also a posthumous release. Both rap artists were easily at the apexes of their careers, which is why the timing of their passing is so unfortunate.
The idea that I would really like to challenge (with respect to Biggie and Pac) is whether they would be dominating the rap world if they were still around today. Furthermore, I would like to explore the possibility that it is more likely that they would not be the most dominant artists in hip hop today in terms of the music they would be releasing. Now before you look up my IP address and gather all your friends in an angry mob for my head, just hear me out. The way I see it, there's three main paths that the rappers could have followed if their lives were not tragically cut short.
Outcome #1: The Continuation of Their Domination
So let's assume here that Biggie and Tupac continued to drop full length LPs on a semi-regular basis that were, not only critically acclaimed, but also widely accepted by the general public. For this outcome to be realistic, one would have to assume that the best parts of their careers were yet to come to fruition since it has been over 15 years since those tragic events. Moreover, this would mean that Biggie and Pac would not have actually reached the apexes of their careers at the time of their death and they would actually see even more success than they already had. For each outcome I want to mention examples of rappers that have followed a similar path, however, I do not believe there has ever been a rapper in the genre's history that maintained the level of popularity that Biggie and Pac perished with for a long period of time. I want to stress "the level of popularity" because there are definitely rappers out there who have been pumping out amazing music for years and years, (e.g. MF Doom and The Roots). It is important to note that these rap outfits do not garner even nearly as much attention as Tupac and Biggie did in their time.
For this outcome to realistically happen, Biggie and Pac would have to do something that virtually no other rapper has ever done before. You have to keep in mind that right before they were killed they were two of the largest cemented fixtures in rap. In order to keep that up, they would have to maintain their musical excellence as well as their enticing images. They would have to also make sure to stay innovative in a clever way as to make sure their acts did not become dated to listeners. They would have to do the impossible in rap…please everyone.
Outcome #2: Less Music, More Business
"Music business hate me cause the industry ain't make me.
Hustlers and boosters embrace me and the music I be making.
I dumbed down for my audience and doubled my dollars,
They criticize me for it, yet they all yell holla." – Jay-Z in "Moment of Clarity"
This would be the most probable outcome, in my opinion. If a rapper wants to either gain popularity or maintain a high spot in the eyes of fans, they have to create enjoyable music, all the while maintaining a high level of innovation, which just is not sustainable. In addition, when an artist reaches a certain level of popularity, they become much bigger than their own music and they become a brand themselves. Initially, their music will be their main source of income but if they are successful, it is their personal brand that carries them financially.
Don't believe me? Just keep waiting for Detox to come out while Dr. Dre sits in his mansion farming cash off his branded headphones. Dr. Dre, literally, has nothing to gain with making music. He's already proven his prowess as an elite producer and he's living quite comfortably with his personal business ventures. There are also countless other examples of rappers who have quit putting their heart and souls into producing LPs and have fallen back onto other forms of revenue and you cannot blame them. The public demands so much from artists so it makes sense for artists to just try and live their lives. Being under the microscope with all of society's eyes behind the eyepiece watching and criticizing your every move has to be extremely taxing mentally and physically. If Tupac and Biggie were still alive today, imagine how many headphone companies would be begging for them to put their name on a new product in exchange for a hefty royalty. The more their legendary status becomes cemented into the genre, the less pressure they have in proving themselves musically.
You are probably all thinking "just look at Jay-Z and Nas!" Both of these rappers were also very influential in the rap genre even back when Biggie and Pac were still around and they are still huge monikers for hip hop today, all the while still making music. However, after objectively comparing Jay-Z and Nas' music in the pre-1998 time period to the many different styles they have experimented with after, there are many mixed feelings from listeners within the community. As a result of the achievements and level of praise for their work in the past, many actively argue that Jay-Z and Nas have gotten much worse musically than they were back in golden era of hip hop. Jay-Z even admits to intentionally dumbing down his music in order to further supply his wealth and Nas is still seemingly putting a lot of effort into his music, however, he has found it difficult to create consistently highly impactful records. Basically, my main point is that Jay-Z and Nas have failed to reach the same quality of music they put out earlier in their careers in the eyes of many of the hip hop community. Personally, I believe that Jay-Z and Nas' fates would be the best possible, yet still realistic, scenarios for Biggie and Pac's nonexistent continued careers. They would still be relevant in music but would fail to reach the levels they once had in the past.
Outcome #3: Whatever Happened to Tupac and Biggie?
This last possible outcome includes the sudden disappearance of the rappers due to some sort of major event that could have forced them out of the public eye. Whether it be because of a sudden epiphany, like when Mase found God, or a conscious decision to leave the spotlight like Lauryn Hill did (sparked by her disdain for the state of society). This outcome involves hip hop fans going "Whatever happened to Biggie and Tupac these days anyway?!" Alternatively, they may have left the music industry completely and pursued other endeavors such as acting.
This outcome is the most unrealistic one in my opinion only because of the level of notoriety that Tupac and Biggie had achieved. Although artists have dropped off suddenly in the past, none were as popular as Biggie and Pac in their time.
In the end, there should be no debate at all on whether Tupac and Biggie would be huge names in the hip hop world today. They undisputedly would remain the kings of rap because of how far they pushed the genre. Their influence would just continue to grow and grow until they became bigger than music themselves. This would, in turn, lead to the rappers to not put as much focus in their music which I would say would start in the mid-2000s, if not earlier.
This article is not meant to downplay or be presented as a negative connotation towards the lives and music of Notorious B.I.G or Tupac Shakur. It is solely directed to those who wholeheartedly believe that if the two superstars were still alive today, they would still be dominating the rap world musically. Based on general trends of the volatile and unpredictable genre as well as trends from other artists in similar situations, it is more realistic to believe that Tupac and Biggie would not still be pumping out music at the same level they were before they passed away. Furthermore, it would not be because they were no longer capable or a testament to their talents but more so an indicator of the rapid evolution of hip hop as well as the somewhat unrealistic expectations of music listeners. The sheer magnitude of their influence on the genre today is immeasurable and will definitely be felt for years and years to come. The music that they were able to present to the public in their short lives have successfully been immortalized in the history books and rightfully so.

I can't speak on Pac much cause he had a few CDs released post death and they sold well so I think it's safe to if he was alive and recording he would have had continued success. Notorious B.I.G. is another storey he did things lyrically nobody had heard before and if you don't know what im talking about then you should stop reviewing and blogging hiphop. You can super produce almost anyone and give them some great beats and they will have a hit. Biggie was much more than good beats his flow is still considered one of the greatest ever he could count in a song and make it sound funky. We will never know the full potential and depth of ability and where he may have taken hiphop unfortunately he died way before his time.

Wolbachia is an obligate symbiotic bacteria that is ubiquitous in arthropods, with 25–70% of insect species estimated to be infected. Wolbachia species can interact with their insect hosts in a mutualistic or parasitic manner. Sequence types (ST) of Wolbachia are determined by multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of housekeeping genes. However, there are some limitations to MLST with respect to the generation of clone libraries and the Sanger sequencing method when a host is infected with multiple STs of Wolbachia. To assess the feasibility of massive parallel sequencing, also known as next-generation sequencing, we used pyrosequencing for sequence typing of Wolbachia in butterflies. We collected three species of butterflies (Eurema hecabe, Eurema laeta, and Tongeia fischeri) common to Korea and screened them for Wolbachia STs. We found that T. fischeri was infected with a single ST of Wolbachia, ST41. In contrast, E. hecabe and E. laeta were each infected with two STs of Wolbachia, ST41 and ST40. Our results clearly demonstrate that pyrosequencing-based MLST has a higher sensitivity than cloning and Sanger sequencing methods for the detection of minor alleles. Considering the high prevalence of infection with multiple Wolbachia STs, next-generation sequencing with improved analysis would assist with scaling up approaches to Wolbachia MLST.

The usage for "have", "let" and another similar word, "make" differs depending on how coercive / forceful one is.
The easiest one to differentiate is "make".
To "make" someone forcibly do something he/she does not like.
ex. My mother made me eat vegetables when I was young.
In this case, the person speaking hates eating vegetables and his/her mother forced him/her to eat.
ex. The teacher let his students play outside.
My brother let me eat his slice of the pizza because it was my birthday.
ex. My boss had me write a report about the incident.
In this case, the subordinate does not have the capacity/ status to decline the order.
I had my cousin buy beer since he is going to the supermarket.
In this case, the request seems easy enough. His cousin probably wouldn't refuse.


DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 15, 2019--The "Cross-Laminated Timber Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2019-2024" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global cross-laminated timber market reached a value of US$ 664 Million in 2018. The market value is further expected to reach US$ 1,457 Million by 2024, exhibiting a CAGR of 13.4% during 2019-2024.
This report provides a deep insight into the global cross-laminated timber market covering all its essential aspects. This ranges from macro overview of the market to micro details of the industry performance, recent trends, key market drivers and challenges, SWOT analysis, Porter's five forces analysis, value chain analysis, etc.
The report also provides a comprehensive analysis for setting up a cross-laminated timber manufacturing plant. The study analyses the processing and manufacturing requirements, project cost, project funding, project economics, expected returns on investment, profit margins, etc.
The structures built with cross laminated timber require shorter period of construction time than traditional construction materials such as concrete and bricks. This is largely attributed to its light weight nature and easy and fast installation. Due to the faster construction time and cheaper built up costs, CLT offers a cheaper alternative over other popular construction material such as precast concrete to the building industry.
CLT can be used for an entire building or any combination of wall, floor/ceiling and roof applications. Its light weight and other characteristics make it highly adaptable to different types of projects, designs and site conditions like soft soils or tight proximity to neighbouring buildings. CLT elements can also be combined with other building materials which provides more flexibility in design, style and finish architecture. Moreover, any change in CLT can be made on site with simple tools.
Cross laminated timber since its inception has been largely confined to Europe. However, due to the increasing awareness about its advantages over other traditional construction material, architects and other stakeholders in the building industry in several markets such as China, Japan, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc., are now considering cross laminated timber as a building material for their projects.
Cross laminated timber, over the years, has been mainly used as a building material in constructing low to mid rise buildings which mainly includes educational institutes and residential buildings. However, due to recent technical advancement, now structures up to 10 storeys can be built using cross laminated timber. Therefore, due to this technical advancement coupled with the aesthetic value that CLT adds to a structure, several construction companies are considering this product to build large commercial spaces.

Home Beer First U.S. Guinness Brewery in Six Decades Opens Next Month
First U.S. Guinness Brewery in Six Decades Opens Next Month
Kyle Swartz
Guinness will operate its first U.S. brewery in 60 years when the brand officially opens a new production facility next month in Maryland.
Diageo Beer Company USA has announced that the Open Gate Brewery & Barrel House, located just south of Baltimore, will open to the public on Friday, August 3.
"In my opinion, the word 'milestone' doesn't do justice to this moment in Guinness history," says Diageo Beer Company USA Chairman and Diageo Global Sales Officer Tom Day. "Since we announced our brewery just outside Baltimore, I've spent a lot of time here and have come to really love the area and the people of Maryland. I can't wait to see this place open and become a part of this vibrant community and special beer culture. I really think we have something great to offer folks, both in terms of beer and a fantastic place to visit and experience."
While Guinness Draught and other stouts will still be brewed exclusively in Ireland and imported to the U.S., this brewery is a step in the evolution of the brand. Led by Brewmaster Peter Wiens and Head Brewer Hollie Stephenson, the Maryland team will take over production of Guinness Blonde, and experiment with new beers influenced by both American and Maryland traditions.
Guinness will operate its first U.S. brewery in 60 years next month in Maryland.
The taproom, tours of the 10-barrel brewery, the merchandise shops and the grounds will be open on August 3, with the restaurant opening approximately two weeks later.
The new facility has received criticism from some Maryland brewers regarding the legality of its brewing capacity, and what that means for local competitors.
Guinness recently celebrated 200 years of sales in America with a line of special releases.

Four by four drivers are in need of some 'L'p!
FOUR by four drivers came in for an "L" of blast from a Wilmslow driving instructor after his latest clash on the road.
Tony Mills whose dual control car has been bashed in the rear three times by powerful four wheel drive motors has reached the end of his tether.
Now he is suggesting drivers of high performance off-roaders should take refresher courses in driving skills before getting behind the wheel.
He claimed they frequently don't have the skills to handle the power under the bonnet and are in need of instruction for their own safety.
His learner car has come off worst for wear three times at the same spot on a roundabout on the A 34 near Wilmslow.
And he reckons it's because drivers are gazing aloft into the distance, not concentrating on the road directly beneath them where a hesitant learner is at the wheel.
"With the greatest respect I suggest that these people who purchase large four wheel drive vehicles take lessons on how to handle them," he said.
His latest car was written off after a four by four "shunted" it right into the middle of the traffic island.
He had a pupil in the car at the time who was on the eve of taking her Department of Transport driving test.
Luckily she passed the test the next day despite driving a last minute replacement.
Tony, 44, of Mainwaring Drive, Wilmslow, who runs Yoloni Driving Tuition, with partner Yolanda said: "It is the third time it has happened. The car just rolled into me. What is annoying is that my vehicle is a right off while there isn't a single scratch on the four by four".
He explained the latest collision: "I was waiting at the roundabout for the traffic to clear before emerging from the A34 Bypass that connects to the A555 Handforth Link Road, when a four wheel drive vehicle failed to stop in time at the junction of the roundabout and smashed into the rear of my vehicle.
"It shunted us forward into the traffic on the roundabout. The traffic already travelling on the roundabout was forced to swerve to miss colliding into us.
"I was on a driving lesson at the time and my pupil under instruction bravely managed to steer the car to safety onto the hard shoulder.
"This was her pre-test lesson before taking her practical test the next day.
"She did pass her test, even though she was still suffering mentally and physically from the previous day's accident.
"This is ironic as 18 months previously another four wheel drive vehicle smashed and shunted the same car, on the same roundabout in the exact same spot!
"Should experienced drivers be assessed and graded every so many years for Insurance purposes"?
"I should say so."

Despite the fact we have visited some absolutely incredible places on this trip so far, the Tetons just blew me away with its jagged peaks and stunning lakes and canyons, not to mention the wildlife (and celebs!). Still, all good things must come to an end and we eventually headed out of the park. We headed north, over some 10% gradient roads which Elvis wasn't too happy about. We're liking this part of the world more and more as we found a beautiful free camp site by a large lake with hardly anyone in it, and managed a few hours fishing before watching the amazing Persides meteor storm with several shooting stars per minute.
Elvis's driver side window has given up the ghost, and I'm amazed how warm it is this high and far north so it's driving me crazy. I have to have the air-con on whilst Jo has her window fully down. So we picked up a replacement part but annoyingly it didn't fit. Along with an oil change we lost a good couple of hours, and spent the rest of the day chewing miles as we headed north. We stopped for a quick lunch at a place called Gates of the Mountains, which is aptly named due to the narrow vertical crack running through the rock and into a gorgeous looking lake. We found another lake to camp by (again free) which allowed a quick run followed by a nice cool down (and de-smell!) before we had a camp fire on the beach.
Say hello to Glacier National Park, our favorite park of the trip so far! Words and pictures will both come far short of describing this park, but I'll give it a go. Everything in Glacier is huge. The mountains are simply enormous. The glaciers have slowly carved the mountain peaks into horns and spikes, and flattened some into buttes, and the sides of the mountains are so steep in some places that they are nearly vertical. The valleys between the mountains are filled with icy blue lakes made of glacier water.
Glacier has the highest population of grizzly bears in the continental US, and is also home to black bears, coyotes, wolves, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, and many, many other creatures. We were lucky enough to see most of the list above. Each hike in the park leads to some of the most breathtaking views you could imagine. When we arrived in August, nearly all of the 20+ types of wildflowers were in bloom, and the 7+ types of berries were ripe. This is something that only happens for a couple of weeks during the entire year, so we were very lucky.

Q: Styling works as intended in 'responsive design mode' but breaks in small desktop window I have an issue which only occurs in small desktop browser windows. The 'responsive design mode' shows the content as intended, however if I resize my browser to the same dimensions in a normal browser window the view is changed.
More specifically I did a 'hidden scroll bar css trick' roughly just the css:
padding-right: 17px;
box-sizing: content-box;
overflow-y: scroll;
width: 100%;

In the 'responsive design mode' the view looks roughly like this:

In a small browser window with the same size the view looks like this:

This is fixable by adjusting the width to 102%, but the question is:
How do I target only small browsers and not mobile devices ? Perhaps even better, what 'hide scroll bar' css trick could avoid this issue on small desktop browsers ?
I prefer a sass only solution, but jquery options could be a workaround.

A: Please include overflow-y: auto; instead of overflow-y: scroll;. As, overflow-y with scroll property adds scroll bar no matter what is the situation. But on the other hand, overflow-y with auto adds scroll when content is exceeding the given limit.

Muse, the rock band, had an awkward moment during a performance on April 14 when one of the drones they were using in their show crashed into the crowd.
The band was about to finish their set at London's O2 Arena, and during the last song before they left the stage, one of the drones that was used as part of the performance decided to fly headfirst into the crowd!
The drone was a scaled down copy of a military jet. According to Digital Spy, there were no injuries reported. The concert was part of a world tour, showcasing material from their new album "Drones."
On June, 21 Muse will perform in Moscow.

Neil Young has announced plans for a special two-night stand in Boston this fall. The legendary rocker will deliver back-to-back performances at the Citi Wang Theatre on Sunday, October 5 and Monday, October 6. Tickets for each of the shows, which range in price from $55 to $350, will go on sale Monday at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster.
Young will be promoting his new album, A Letter Home. Released on Record Store Day this past April, the Canadian's 34th studio effort was recorded on a refurbished 1947 Voice-o-Graph vinyl recording booth at Jack White's Third Man store in Nashville, Tennessee. The opening spoken-word track is followed by a collection of classic songs covering the likes of Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Gordon Lightfoot, Bruce Springsteen and others. White contributes vocals and piano on two tracks. A Letter Home debuted at #13 on the Billboard 200.
Young's last offering of all original material was 2012's Psychedelic Pill, which he recorded with Crazy Horse. The double-disc set is Young's longest album, clocking in at just under 88 minutes.


ASTERISK:FIVE LEAK!?!?!? Well, way way way way back in the century of 2009, work was underway on the fifth installment of QN5's Asterisk: series. Covers were designed, beats were being collected, guest appearances started to get ironed out, initial recording began – and then – SILENCE. There were so many moving parts that the project basically imploded. It was during that time that this gem was recorded.
Pairing our favorite west coast affiliate Tunji with DMV-rep Substantial over an ultra-funky head-nodder from Algorythm, the result was "The Knock" one of only a handful of tracks that was turned in for the project. The two MCs had previously worked together, as evidenced by Tunji's lyric "Went from Sparking my Soul to Asterisk:Five" (Of course, an allusion to the previous collabo by this pairing on CunninLynguists Strange Journey Volume One release).
This leak has been online for a few years, but resurfaced on Soundcloud last night after Substantial re-posted it from Algorythm's feed (LEAK!!!) – but now you know where it was originally intended on being released. And the fate of Asterisk:Five? It's on the back-burner for now. These projects were always fun to create, but historically our lowest sellers. Still, if you're into the histrionics of the label, they're an absolute MUST-HAVE though. Perhaps if you pester us enough and show enough of a demand for it, we'll re-prioritize this project. With tracks like "The Knock" as evidence of what could've been – we think it's safe to assume that Asterisk:Five was on it's way to being the best of the series.
What sayeth you, blue schoolers?
Man, I'd love to see Asterisk:Five finally happen. This was a pretty cool surprise. Don't think I've heard it before.
Quality track, good to finally hear this.
I'll dig Asterisk:Five for sure; I'll take a Halfstrisk with just the songs that are finished and bump that. But I understand it is hard to be finishing old projects when you next level. I just rebought all the Asterisks digital copies cause the disks were getting old and a couple of tracks were skipping. Each one is great. Further greatness definitely supported from my end.
Never heard of it. Pretty awesome.
And of course I'd love an asterisk five. I was so pumped when it was announced.
But yeah, seems logical that main projects should come first.
This is dope as hell!
