WHAT IS VALUABLE IN THE ACADEME: CORPUS-BASED ANALYSIS
Albina Vodyanitskaya, Vera Yaremenko
The paper focuses on the corpus-based analysis of academic discourse values. The research aim is to reveal how teachers transmit academic discourse values through their everyday interactions with students (during lectures, seminars) and to reveal, which values are relevant for the students (based on the analysis of their essays, research papers and some such). The research relies on corpus-based approach and primary methods used are a semantic analysis and a context analysis as well as definition analysis of evaluative means. The research results have revealed that various values play important role in academic interactions and shape the image of the academe – on the local as well as on the global scale. The study of the contexts containing the word valuable in British National Corpus (Davis, 2008-), British Academic Spoken English (Nesi, & Thompson, 2000-), British Academic Written English (Nesi, 2008-), Corpus of Russian Student Texts (Rakhilina, Zevakhina, & Dzhakupova, 2013-) and Michigan Corpus of Academic Spoken English (2002-) has revealed that the values of academic discourse can be subdivided into six domains: emotional, cognitive, educational, research-related, academic life-related, topic- / area-related. The further applicability of research findings manifests itself in various avenues of research: linguistics (evaluative means), axiology (cross-disciplinary study of values), teaching practices (academic discourse genres) and others.

New study reveals large scale conservation essential
Published: Tuesday, June 10, 2008 - 04:14 in Biology & Nature
Scientists were surprised with findings of a recent study that reveals many animal species believed to persist in small contained areas actually need broad, landscape level conservation to survive. With more species at risk of extinction today than any other time in human history, the findings of the study published in the debut issue of Conservation Letters provides new insight into how to improve protection for many species worldwide. Scientists from organizations including Conservation International (CI) and BirdLife International identified appropriate scales of conservation efforts for 4,239 species of mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians included on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
"The biggest surprise was the frogs," said Claude Gascon, executive vice president for programs and science at CI, and co-chair of the IUCN Amphibian Specialist Group. "Amphibians are small animals, and many have tiny ranges restricted to a single forest or a mountain stream. But astonishingly many species -- like the Critically Endangered Lake Titicaca Giant Frog (Telmatobius culeus) from Peru -- are greatly impacted by ecological processes at the landscape scale."
Many freshwater species, such as frogs and other amphibians, are threatened by environmental changes to watersheds or river basins impacted by pollution, deforestation or dams. The study found that 20 percent of threatened amphibians, and no less than 40 percent of threatened freshwater turtles, depend on broad-scale conservation action to address changes in freshwater processes.
"It's not that these animals themselves need a huge area per se, but rather that comprehensive and successful strategies must include various scales of action from sites to landscapes" Gascon added. "But we have to think about how we impact the quality and flow of freshwater across entire landscapes. And remember that people need those flows of clean freshwater across landscapes in the same way that frogs do."
The establishment of protected areas to safeguard key biodiversity areas has been long considered the most effective means to protect threatened species. The study reinforces this assumption, showing that the protection of key sites must remain the foundation for all conservation efforts. However, it also showed that considerably more threatened species need urgent conservation action at the landscape or seascape level than previously believed. Fully one in five threatened vertebrates require urgent conservation action at the landscape or seascape scale, including such flagship species as the Tiger (Panthera tigris) and the Philippine Eagle (Pithecophaga jefferyi).
The study also covered marine mammals, seabirds and sea turtles, and showed that 74 percent of these require urgent seascape level action. These include species like the Galápagos Fur Seal (Arctocephalus galapagoensis) and the Waved Albatross (Phoebastria irrorata), from the Eastern Tropical Pacific. "While the need for seascape conservation is overwhelming for these species," cautioned Charlotte Boyd, the study's lead author and now a marine ecologist at the University of Washington, "we urgently need equivalent assessments for fish to obtain a more comprehensive picture of what conservation actions are needed where in marine systems."
Overall, the study provides strong new evidence supporting the integration of multiple scales of conservation, including protected areas as well as landscape and seascape level conservation strategies.
"Our key conclusion is that both site-scale and broad-scale conservation are essential to prevent mass extinction," said Thomas Brooks, from the CI Center for Applied Biodiversity Science. "We recognize that site protection is the cornerstone for almost all threatened species. We are now also certain that a substantial proportion and unexpected diversity of threatened species will be lost without urgent conservation intervention at the sea or landscape level."

Q: having clause is not working in sql I dont understand whats wrong in this statment.
  Select customername,LEN(address)
  FROM customers group by customername having LEN(address) = 13;

This is the error message
HAVING clause (LEN(address)=13) without grouping or aggregation.

A: Neither address nor LEN(address) is in the GROUP BY.  So, you either need to add them or wrap the expressions in an aggregation function:
SELECT customername, MAX(LEN(address))
FROM customers
GROUP BY customername
HAVING MAX(LEN(address)) = 13;

Or if you just want customers with a length of 13, perhaps no aggregation is needed at all:
SELECT customername
FROM customers
WHERE LEN(address) = 13;

A: Try it with the where clause
  Select customername,LEN(address) as lenadressnamecolumn
  FROM customers where LEN(address) = 13;

I went to a garage sale.
APPRAISER:
How long ago was this, Claire?
This was about 30 years ago. As we moved into our new house, I needed a diminutive table and I thought, I think I know the shape and size and when I saw this out in the yard I thought this is a great thing. It was pitch black. It was a moldy mess. And the lady was asking $30, so I said, "But I only have $25." I said, "That's all I have." She said, "You can have it for $25" and I took it.
With most pieces from the Federal period we make attributions on the basis of inlay, style, secondary woods. But on your particular table, we're very fortunate-- you are, in fact-- to have the actual label of John Seymour and Son, Creek Square, Boston, which is where they were. And it's a little bit deteriorated but you can still read it. That's just extraordinary because it's so rare to find labeled pieces. What you brought in today here is a Federal inlay mahogany demilune card table made by John and Thomas Seymour, very distinguished cabinetmakers who made some of the most distinguished and fine furniture for the very wealthiest families in Boston at the time.
Ah...
This table, everything about it, even if it didn't have the label, says "John and Thomas Seymour." The quality is incredible. It has this wonderful figured mahogany. The top has these inlaid...
Egg and darts.
Almost an egg and dart with a dot and almost a seed which is sand-burnt-- they used hot sand to color that inlay to give it a three-dimensional effect. If you come down to the edge, this edge has wonderful satinwood inlay, this figured satinwood. It has a typical Seymour coved edge, a veneered front, and on this veneered front, tapering bellflowers-- you see how they taper from small into large and then-- and the bowknot, which is so delicately done, this satinwood bowknot. All of these elements that we're seeing actually came out of English design books from the late 18th century of George Hepplewhite and Sheraton, their design books. But the Seymours took it even to a higher level. We look at this edge. It's all satinwood decorated and then, incredibly, the legs actually have this satinwood band, which tapers down, and there are these bellflowers graduating down the leg and at the very bottom, a bellflower.
Now, did you try to clean it at any point?
Uh, linseed oil and turpentine. I didn't refinish it. I wiped it off and then I saw this and then I kept going, and I thought, "Well, I'll just see." And I took the dirt all off.
Well, Claire, luckily, you weren't a really great refinisher...
No, I'm joking. But if you'd cleaned it a lot more you would have taken a lot off the value. Luckily, it still has a nice old color, and even though you cleaned it... See all the dirt down at the bottom? I love that.
That, yeah, that was up here. I just want to say, when we first saw you, my heart started going like this. You can feel it right now.
Mine did, too.
Leslie looked over and said: "Leigh, is that what I think it is?" And as we got closer, you had this upside down, and we saw that label and Les went up to the label and said, "It isn't, is it?" And I said, "It is." So it's really one of the most exciting moments I've ever had-- Les?
Yes. Absolutely, one of the most exciting pieces I've ever seen.
Just to be here with this. Do you have an idea of what it's worth or have you gotten some idea?
Oh, probably $20,000, now, I just said that.
I think the estimate we're going to give you is going to top that. I think Les and I both feel that this piece in the open marketplace on a good day, would be in the range of about $200,000 to $225,000. GUEST" Wow! $200,000 to $225,000?
Now, I want to say that on a very good day with everything in place, it has the possibility of bringing $300,000. I don't want to get your hopes up that much but $225,000 isn't bad, I guess, right?
It's not bad!

Understanding Our Appraisals
Executive producer Marsha Bemko shares her tips for getting the most out of ANTIQUES ROADSHOW.
Value can change: The value of an item is dependent upon many things, including the condition of the object itself, trends in the market for that kind of object, and the location where the item will be sold. These are just some of the reasons why the answer to the question "What's it worth?" is so often "It depends."
Note the date: Take note of the date the appraisal was recorded. This information appears in the upper left corner of the page, with the label "Appraised On." Values change over time according to market forces, so the current value of the item could be higher, lower, or the same as when our expert first appraised it.
Context is key: Listen carefully. Most of our experts will give appraisal values in context. For example, you'll often hear them say what an item is worth "at auction," or "retail," or "for insurance purposes" (replacement value). Retail prices are different from wholesale prices. Often an auctioneer will talk about what she knows best: the auction market. A shop owner will usually talk about what he knows best: the retail price he'd place on the object in his shop. And though there are no hard and fast rules, an object's auction price can often be half its retail value; yet for other objects, an auction price could be higher than retail. As a rule, however, retail and insurance/replacement values are about the same.
Verbal approximations: The values given by the experts on ANTIQUES ROADSHOW are considered "verbal approximations of value." Technically, an "appraisal" is a legal document, generally for insurance purposes, written by a qualified expert and paid for by the owner of the item. An appraisal usually involves an extensive amount of research to establish authenticity, provenance, composition, method of construction, and other important attributes of a particular object.
Opinion of value: As with all appraisals, the verbal approximations of value given at ROADSHOW events are our experts' opinions formed from their knowledge of antiques and collectibles, market trends, and other factors. Although our valuations are based on research and experience, opinions can, and sometimes do, vary among experts.
Appraiser affiliations: Finally, the affiliation of the appraiser may have changed since the appraisal was recorded. To see current contact information for an appraiser in the ROADSHOW Archive, click on the link below the appraiser's picture. Our Appraiser Index also contains a complete list of active ROADSHOW appraisers and their contact details and biographies.

COVID-19 blocking local holiday tournaments
The virus is interrupting holiday sports traditions such as St. Dom's annual Christmas Classic hockey tournament.
By Randy WhitehouseSun Journal
Whether it's reluctantly finishing the last of the Thanksgiving leftovers or singing along to "Jingle Bell Rock" for only the 10th time so far, early December has a way of turning one's thoughts to Christmas and the traditions that go with it.
For many local high school coaches, athletes and fans, the tradition includes participating in or watching holiday basketball and hockey tournaments. But the COVID-19 pandemic has already wiped out many holiday traditions, and the tournaments are not immune.
Last year, the St. Dominic Academy Christmas Classic invitational hockey tournament drew teams from all over New England to compete in a three-day event at Norway Savings Bank Arena hosted by the St. Dom's boys hockey team. In addition to the Saints and in-state rivals Edward Little, Lewiston and Cape Elizabeth, five out-of-state schools from New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Connecticut battled it out in one of the top hockey tournaments in the Northeast.

Last month, governors throughout the Northeast agreed to suspend interstate competition for school and youth hockey teams due to the virus. St. Dom's athletic director J.P. Yorkey said given the size and scope of the tournament, it would have been difficult to pull off regardless.
"A lot of work goes into planning and organizing it as an eight-team championship tournament from each New England state," Yorkey said in an email to the Sun Journal. "We had to make a decision relatively early and the majority of the schools couldn't commit, and with how things are now in Maine, we couldn't play anyway."
St. Dom's boys hockey coach Dan D'Auteuil said the tournament's cancellation hurts his team in a number of ways.
"It's sad," he said. "The Christmas Classic is basically half of our fundraising for the year. It's anywhere from $8,000 to $10,000 a year that we raise from it."
The money raised from the tournament helps pay for trips to play in Connecticut and Massachusetts, but it's not the financial loss that concerns D'Auteuil.
"It may work out to kind of a wash (financially) because we're not going to spend the money," he said, "but it's not about spending the money. It's about the experience these kids are going to lose. With the Christmas tournament, they're playing kids and meeting kids from all over New England. The second day of the tournament we put on a big breakfast at the school and all of the teams come and all of the kids are in the cafeteria together, and it's a neat experience for all of the kids to sit with each other and see that they're the same."
The pandemic and the resulting delay in the start of winter sports by the Maine Principals' Association forced cancellation of a number of local events that are annual staples of Thanksgiving weekend, such as the Auburn-Lewiston Sports Hall of Fame Gippers Basketball Tip-Off Classic and the Jake Lord Play it Safe Foundation alumni basketball games at Spruce Mountain High School.

Jenna Winokur started the alumni games at Spruce, which are usually held the Friday after Thanksgiving, in 2012 in honor of her late brother Jake and as a fundraiser for the foundation she started in his name. Lord was a star athlete and 2011 Jay High School graduate who died by suicide later that year as a result of head injuries he suffered while playing sports in school.
While the games weren't held this year, the foundation was still able to raise over $2,400 through an online auction, which Winokur had started last year to run in conjunction with the games. Additional money was raised through t-shirt sales and in-kind donations.
"We did really well. It was a great way to still host a fundraiser for the foundation and bring the community together, but in a safe way," said Winokur.
"I am incredibly impressed with the generosity of our community in a time when everything is so uncertain," she said.

But something was definitely missing this year besides basketball, and Winokur is determined to resume the tradition eventually.
"The basketball game has always been a time for healing for me personally and an opportunity to get our community together and to remember my brother and honor his love of sports and his community spirit," she said. "It's always been a day I really look forward to to bring the community together in his memory. That was definitely missed this year."
"As soon as it's safe," she added, "we would definitely want to bring the games back because there's nothing quite like bringing the community together on the day after Thanksgiving, seeing old friends, and just getting together for a cause that's really near and dear to my heart."

Cross cultural communication involves the process of understanding through interaction so that the new cultural environment can be met. While culture around the world value their individual traditions, norms and beliefs that make them unique, social media link people around the world regardless of differences and geographical boundaries. Social media has brought people from different cultures together in the global village. Communication and interaction are key factors that influence how social media impact intercultural adaptation.
People use social media for many reasons. First, the need for connection and interaction with other people. Social media provide this opportunity where people can communicate with others from different cultures via virtual communities on the internet. Next, social media is used for socializing: it is a form of media that allow people to participate in conversations and online dialogue without being face to face with others. Cultural differences influence communication, behavior and values.
An example of social media that promotes the exchange of messages between people across the world is Facebook. There million users in the world use this social media to interact with others. You tube is another social media used to share videos. Twitter is a form of social media that allows people to communicate information through micro blogging. Many people follow friends, celebrities, and musicians on this site in which they feel connected and develop acceptance for the actions and feelings of others. Instagram, Path are other form of social media where allow people to share pictures etc. These examples of social media have shortened the ties of distance into knowing exactly what someone is doing without phisically communication face to face with another person.

Britain Decides: Boris Johnson wins TV debate against Jeremy Corbyn by the slimmest of margins
International Saturday 07th December 2019 03:23 AM REPORT
Thank you for your reading and interest in the news Britain Decides: Boris Johnson wins TV debate against Jeremy Corbyn by the slimmest of margins and now with details
Hind Al Soulia - Riyadh - A snap poll following the final leaders' debate before the UK's general election has given victory to Prime Minister Boris Johnson by the slimmest of margins.
The YouGov poll of viewers from the BBC debate showed 52 per cent said Mr Johnson had won the debate while 48 per cent said the opposition Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn had won.
As the poll falls within the margin of error it Is essentially a tie. Those who responded they didn't know who had won were not included in the results.
"Our snap poll shows that the public remains divided on who won the debate, just as with last month's head-to-head, with most Labour voters thinking Jeremy Corbyn won, most Conservative voters thinking Boris Johnson won, and very few people changing their minds," Chris Curtis, YouGov's political research manager said.
While the poll has shown there was no definitive winner, Mr Curtis said he believed the lack of a knockout blow against the Conservatives will leave Mr Johnson's party hoping they can maintain their lead in the polls.
The hour-long debate, which began at 20:30 GMT, was the last time the two politicians will share a stage before British voters go to the polls on December 12.
In his opening statement, first by virtue of a coin toss, Mr Corbyn said Labour would "build a society for all," saying families struggling to make ends meet needed an "ambitious government on their side".
Mr Johnson said the upcoming election would mark a "turning point" for the country and called on voters to "get Brexit done". He touted plans for Conservative spending on the NHS and policing and dismissed the possibility of a Labour-led government as a "nightmare".
After initial questions over criticism both leaders have faced from past prime ministers Tony Blair and Sir John Major, the pair clashed over post-Brexit trade deals.
Mr Corbyn demanded "openness from the government" referring to customs charges and checks in Northern Ireland he claims would come into effect under his opponent's Brexit deal.
The prime minister said the claims were "not true" and said the deal was a "great deal".
Mr Johnson drew first blood, eliciting applause from the audience after accusing the Labour leader of trying to break up the union for decades by supporting the IRA in Northern Ireland.
The audience was, however, equally impressed with Mr Corbyn's defence of the Good Friday Agreement, which he praised as an achievement of a Labour government.
The first displays of humour from Mr Johnson came as the pair sparred over the NHS. The prime minister said Mr Corbyn's accusations the Conservatives planned to offer parts of the NHS up for sale in a trade deal with the United States were "pure Bermuda Triangle stuff". He added: "We'll be hearing about little green men next."
Mr Corbyn stuck to his guns, however, continuing to attack the Conservatives' record on the health service saying Tory cuts had led to "increased waiting times and waiting lists".
During a relatively brief discussion on the economy and business, Mr Corbyn said the worst excesses of capitalism needed to be curbed. Mr Johnson said the government needed to get Brexit done to restore confidence to British business.
The debate then turned to the recent terror attack on London Bridge in which two people, Jack Merritt and Saskia Jones, were killed.
Mr Corbyn called the attack by Usman Khan "totally appalling" but laid the blame for the killings partially at the feet of the government. He said when police numbers were cut and the police service privatised "we all pay a price".
Asked about how he would balance human rights with the need to keep the British public safe, Mr Johnson said he had sympathy for with the families of the victims, who worked to rehabilitate criminals, but he was deeply critical of the judicial automatic early release mechanism which had allowed Khan back into the community. The prime minister said he had consistently campaigned against shorter sentences and early release for terrorists.
Mr Johnson appeared to briefly gain the upper hand against Mr Corbyn when the pair were quizzed on hatred in the current political discourse, including Islamophobia and anti-Semitism in the Conservative and Labour parties respectively.
The prime minister accused the Labour leader of a "failure to take a stand" on the issue of anti-Semitism and pushed Mr Corbyn on to the back foot.
Mr Corbyn's response that he would never make "racist remarks" about people from another country, a reference to the kind of language used by the prime minister in his newspaper columns, did not land quite as effectively.
As the discussion moved on to Brexit once more, Mr Johnson goaded his opposition rival, asking what his Brexit plan was and breaking his opponent's flow.
In his closing statement, the Labour leader appealed to voters' sense of hope and ambition while the prime minister asked for a vote of confidence to get Brexit done.
Online, supporters of both Mr Corbyn and Mr Johnson gave their own early verdicts on the contest. Labour's John McDonnell tweeted: "Johnson's absolutely floundering. Comes across as the liar he is. I said very clearly that we will aim to reduce the working week to 32 hours over the next decade as we increase the productivity of the economy & only as a result of the productivity increase. You are a liar Johnson''
Tory Party chairman James Cleverly tweeted: "What businesses tell me is that they are horrified at the prospect of a Corbyn led Labour government."
The Scottish National Party, which was not represented in the debate, poured scorn on both sides. "That was utterly woeful. Two uninspiring men, both of them unsuited to be PM. On Thursday, a vote for @theSNP can lock Johnson and the Tories out of government," Scottish First Minister and SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon tweeted.
Ahead of the debate, Mr Johnson was delivered a body blow by former Prime Minister Sir John Major. Mr Major, who followed Margaret Thatcher into 10 Downing Street, urged voters to support three former Conservative MPs running against Mr Johnson.
Former ministers David Gauke, Dominic Grieve and Anne Milton were effectively expelled from the Conservative Party in September for blocking Mr Johnson's Brexit legislation.
"Let me make one thing absolutely clear: none of them have left the Conservative party, the Conservative party has left them," Mr Major said, adding that he considered Brexit the "worst foreign policy decision in my lifetime".
In response, Mr Johnson has said he is "sad" that the former prime minister had intervened and said he "respectfully" disagrees with him.
Mr Major said his plea was for party loyalists to abandon the system's tribal ties in the wider national interest.
"To vote means to choose. Tribal loyalty has its place. But sometimes you need to vote with your head not your heart."
Following on Tony Blair, another ex-prime minister, declared: "Thank God for John Major," he said.
"This election is beyond surreal."
Mr Blair went on to warn there were six days to "save" the country.
The two prime ministers address a crowded theatre in central London which was filled with cheers as Mr Major introduced Mr Blair.
Dubbed by an organiser as the last chance saloon for those that want to overturn the 2016 referendum to leave the EU campaigners, the rally in central London on Friday was billed as a wake-up cry against a double-digit poll victory by Boris Johnson.
"With Boris Johnson in power, it won't just be bad but dangerous," said Isi Daley, a Brexit campaigner.
"On the 12th of December we all of us can stop him. It means looking at the seat you're in and voting for the party, which ever party, that is best placed to beat the Conservative candidate."
David Gauke, a cabinet minister under former prime minister Theresa May, called on the half of the country that supports remaining in the EU to stop a Conservative victory at the general election.
Mr Gauke repudiated the idea that Brexit could be made to work.
"I am one of those who tried to make Brexit work or at least mitigate the effects of Brexit," he said. "There is no doubt about it -- this countries interests require us to remain but this debate will be practically over if, in a weeks time, Boris Johnson wins a majority."
Speaking to London's LBC radio programme on Thursday, British election guru Sir John Curtice said that absent a much strong Remain tactical vote it was likely the Conservatives will get a majority in the upcoming election.
Research done by The Times newspaper has indicated Scotland may hold the keys to unlocking a Conservative majority in the upcoming election.
Mr Johnson repeatedly called for a general election after becoming prime minister in July. He said winning a Conservative majority in parliament was the only way to deliver on the decision of the 2016 referendum.

Vatican Commemorative Cover Marks 50th Anniversary of Opening of Second Vatican Council in 1962
Monday, November 5th, 2012 @ 5:25 pm
Vatican » » Vatican Commemorative Cover Marks 5...
The Vatican Post office has issued an attractive special commemorative cover to mark the 50th anniversary of the Opening of the historic Second Vatican Council on Thursday, 11 October 1962.
The 0.60 euro value postage stamp (the internal letter rate in the Vatican and Italy) used on the cover was issued on 4 November 2009 to mark the 50th Anniversary of the Convocation of the Second Vatican Council.
The stamp is a reproduction of a bronze panel of the Door of Good and Evil in St Peter's Basilica. The panel was created by Italian sculptor Luciano Minguzzi, who made the artwork between 1970 and 1977.
Vatican stamps are popular with collectors and this particular stamp is no longer available from Vatican Post Offices, except on the special cover now on sale to pilgrims at that the two permanent Vatican Post Offices, and also the portable Post Office, situated in St Peter's Square.
The attractive 'Poste Vaticane, 11 Ottobre 2012' special hand cancellation includes a contemporary drawing of what the inside of St Peter's Basilica looked like 50 years ago on 11 October 1962.
The front of the cover depicts Pope John XIII, who on 25 January 1959, during a visit to the Benedictine Abbey of St Paul Outside the Wales, Rome, announced his decision to convene an Ecumenical Council of the Catholic Church.
Three years later Pope John opened the Vatican Council that brought together Cardinals, Archbishop and Bishops from all over the world to examine a wide range of issues relating to the life of the Catholic Church.
John XXIII did not live to see the outcome of the Council. He died in the Vatican on 3 June 1963.
The Vatican Council, that has brought many important changes to the Catholic Church, concluded on 8 December 1965 during the Pontificate of Paul VI, who is also shown on the cover.
One of the young priests who attended the Vatican Council as a theological consultant was Father Joseph Ratzinger, who came from Bavaria in Germany. Years later, on 19 April 2005, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was elected Pope following the death of Pope John Paul II. He chose the name Benedict XVI.
On Thursday morning, Thursday, 11 October 2012, Pope Benedict XVI – shown on the cover – presided at the celebration of Mass, in St Peter's Square, on the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the Opening of the Second Vatican Council.

Here are some more pictures I took on Thursday, August 21st after doing some more exploration of the rust. This day's goal was to get the car on jack stands and determine good cut lines for welding in the patches.
The first picture shows the outline of what is going to be replaced on the rocker cover. I'm basically avoiding any areas around the door opening where the factory cover is curved upwards. The rear line is also dictated by a few cuts on the replacement part that I think avoid the same areas on two door models (the cover I'm using is made specifically for two door models). Also, the lines are drawn with chalk which will stay put while I'm cutting but will be easy to change if I need to.
Here's the front part of where I'll be cutting. The chalk line is roughly an inch and a half in front of the last soft spot in the factory cover. You can also see where the outer rocker (this is the part that has the two stamped holes in it) ends. It's supposed to go the entire length of the rocker. I'll be fabricating a replacement for this. Any metal that gray is due to the fact that the inner and out rocker panels are galvanized from the factory to prevent rust. If it wasn't for the mouse nest, the outer rocker would most likely still be there.
Here's the rear part of what I'll be replacing. Notice that there is no outer rocker in this area. Also, the metal was rusted enough that I was able to create this opening using nothing more than an awl and my fingers.
Here's a close up of the outer rocker panel (this is the part I'm fabricating). The holes are used to strengthen the panel. If you look at them, there is a raised area around each opening. This is where the panel gets a good deal of its strength.
Here's the new replacement cover. It's really for 68-74 AMX's and Javelins, 64-69 two door and convertible Americans, and 63-64 two door Ambassador's and Classic's. These can be used to replace rocker covers on four doors and station wagons of the same years and models but you'll need to buy three of them to do both sides completely and you'll have to do extra trimming around the "B" pillar.
Here's a view of the top of the panel. You can see where it's notched to avoid having to deal with the curved areas around the door openings.
This final picture shows what color the car was originally. I'm really looking forward to getting the car back to this color all over! For now, I'm going to settle for the green that I used around the windshield.

John Hooks, Giorgio Armani's right-hand man, has retired after working at the core of the group for 11 years.
John Hooks resigns from vice-presidency
Revealed earlier by WWD, one can make more sense of this sudden departure when looking at the group's recent plans to restructure its operations. In fact, with Giorgio Armani being nearly 80 years old and without a direct successor, the company's future is still uncertain. However, the founder has always denied any talk of a possible sale of Giorgio Armani Spa.
After starting his career as deputy general manager in 2000, John Hooks was promoted to vice-president and joined the board of directors in January 2010. In charge of global strategy and markets and brand development, the English man was also responsible for the group's foreign subsidiaries.


An image of the Hayabusa2 spacecraft silhouetted against Ryugu's surface, captured by the probe during its sampling procedure in February.
Japan's Hayabusa2 mission to the asteroid Ryugu arrived at its destination prepared to make that possible, through a maneuver called the Small Carry-on Impactor operation. That operation is scheduled to play out tonight (April 4 in the U.S., the morning of April 5 at the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, or JAXA, headquarters).
You can watch a live broadcast from mission control with English dubbing on Space.com, courtesy of JAXA, or directly through the agency's YouTube channel, beginning at 8:30 p.m. EDT (April 5, 0030 GMT).
The operation is designed to help scientists better understand the asteroid's interior. Over the course of about 40 minutes, the Small Carry-on Impactor will separate from the main Hayabusa2 spacecraft, which will then hide itself away on the other side of the asteroid to protect itself from flying debris. Along the way, Hayabusa2 will release a camera that will watch the impact from about 0.6 miles (1 kilometer) away and send back a couple hours' worth of photographs.
Then, it's showtime. The impactor will approach the asteroid's surface, then deploy onboard explosives. The detonation will boost the impactor's speed to 1.2 miles (2 km) per second in a fraction of a second, creating a fresh crater on Ryugu.
The deployed camera will photograph that entire event, recording how debris flies away from the impact. That data will, in particular, help scientists understand Ryugu's structure, including how much empty space is inside the rock.
Once the dust settles, Hayabusa2 will creep out from behind Ryugu. And if all goes well, scientists are hoping they'll be able to bring the main spacecraft down to the surface near the fresh crater to get a close look at the newly formed feature — and maybe even grab a sample of nearby rock.
The Small Carry-on Impactor operation is one of Hayabusa2's last tasks at Ryugu: All that's left for the spacecraft is to deploy one more small rover, called MINERVA-II 2, which should take place late this summer. Then, it's time to head back to Earth, samples onboard.


PeakChange seeks to foster a permanent spirit of joy within our community of impact investors. We believe that the PeakChange vision, developed and refined during the past several years, is now in the process of becoming realized. Within our collective reach is an aligned impact investing ecosystem that nurtures a just and regenerative economy that benefits everybody. PeakChange has recently introduced our initial offerings of investor services to assist groups and individuals who are focused on the impact space; we are eager to roll out additional services to facilitate relationships between investors and entrepreneurs within a collaborative business environment.
I have come to appreciate that, fundamental to activity in the impact investment space, people invest in people to solve those specific critical social problems about which they share a passionate concern. Impact investors provide their money, time, and energy because they believe in the ability of entrepreneurial teams to build companies dedicated to finding and delivering profitable answers to these pressing needs. Whether delivering clean drinking water to remote communities (Jibu) or helping people find love and their soulmates (MeetMindful), impact investors and social entrepreneurs embark together on a mutual journey of adventure and discovery.
Risk is inherent in innovative enterprises, particularly at the early stage. When it comes to the triple bottom line, concerns for purpose and planet are often predicated on profit. So, due diligence, financial ROI, and tracking company KPIs preoccupy attention of both investors and entrepreneurs. Moreover, tension is inherent in the relationship between investors and entrepreneurs. High net worth individuals become wary when they are constantly asked for money; entrepreneurs become frustrated when their energies are consumed on a neverending fundraising tour. Moreover, ensuring relationship alignment requires clear-eyed examination of prospective obstacles and downside scenarios. Such attention to serious, practical matters can drain joy from the social entrepreneurship experience.
Our community is mission-driven. Our relationships are based on mutual trust and clear communications. The role of PeakChange in our ecosystem is to identify and promote best practices, to help strengthen relationships between all stakeholders, to communicate knowledge and provide feedback to a widening audience, and to identify and deliver products and services that satisfy client needs. PeakChange is determined to keep joy in our hearts during the holidays and throughout the investing process in the years to come.
Let's take satisfaction from the alignment of our actions with our values. Whatever your impact investment journey may bring in the coming year, remember to make time for joy this holiday season.
Are you ready to join us in creating a joyful impact investing ecosystem? I can't think of a better holiday gift or way to start off the new year of impact.

NOW SHIPPING | Neither record nor exploration, the 44 photographs in Yoko Ikeda's Monkey Puzzle come together to form an imaginary world loosely based on commonplace, even banal, subjects. Made in locations as far-flung as Utrech, Kortrijk and Aga Town, these highly evocative images are at once ominous and inviting, uncanny in their ability to coax the unexpected from the known.
Born in Kanazawa City, Yoko Ikeda now lives and works in Tokyo. She was the 2013 recipient of the prestigious Philadelphia Museum of Art Purchase Award. Ikeda's work has been widely exhibited in the United States and Japan. Monkey Puzzle, the artist's first Western monograph, is richly printed on matte Japanese art paper, limited to 500 hand-numbered copies and bound in cloth.


Any relationship that has domestic violence as a factor is likely volatile and difficult to handle. When the possibility of divorce comes up, the offender may become more violent or aggressive in an attempt to control the victim.
What some people find challenging is determining the line between domestic abuse and bad behavior. There are some red flags that are markers of a violent or dangerous relationship. Here are four to remember.
A person who loves you is unlikely to use threats or coercion to get their way. For example, threatening to commit suicide if you don't do what they ask is a manipulative way of coercing you to stay and comply.
Emotional abuse has a few different forms. Some include making a person feel guilty, calling them names, making them think they are crazy, e.g., "gaslighting" or putting them down.
In any relationship with a man, there is a possibility of him asserting the male privilege. What this means is that he may act as if he is the "master of the house," demanding a kind of servitude or demanding that he be the one who gets to make all of the primary decisions for the household.
Finally, there is denying, minimizing and blaming. Not taking your partner's concerns seriously and making light of a distressing situation fall under this category.
These are just four of numerous red flags that can signal that abuse may be taking place in your relationship. If so, it's a good time to figure a legal way out.
