SCHOOLBOY Tim Holland had a simple message for the two charities who clubbed together to buy him an electric scooter: "Thank you."
Tim suffers from a rare and deadly allergy called Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, which has brought on bronchiolitis obliterans - a sometimes fatal lung disease.
It means nine-year-old Tim, who is constantly connected to an 'iron lung' to help him breathe, has been almost housebound.
But now, for the first time since contracting the allergy almost six months ago, Tim has been outside and has played with his pals.
Brave Tim passed on a note, along with a hand drawn picture of him riding his scooter in the sun, to the Express to thank the two Poynton charities who stumped up the cash.
Tim, who lives on Dickens Lane in Poynton, wrote: "I am writing to thank the people who bought my electric scooter.
"It's really good. I have fun on it giving my brothers lifts to school and back, and racing my mum when she pushes Adam in the buggy."
Poynton's Round Table and the Rotary Club offered to help after they read about Tim's plight.
Round Table representative Alan Little said: "We collect money from Poynton people so we were thrilled that we were able to make a real difference to the life of someone who lives locally.
"There was no hesitation among our members when the idea was put forward."
The rotary club's Trevor Blueman said: "It's local people helping local folk, I am delighted that both are organisations were able to help."
The rotary club pledged £500 and the Round Table - who raise funds at the village's bonfire night and Christmas float - willingly made up the difference for the Sonic Scooter, which cost £1,399.


This is an experimental Windows 64-bit build of Fractalus with support for the Oculus platform and OpenVR (SteamVR/HTC Vive).
This build does not have an installer and must be extracted to a folder. Extract it separately to the main build of Fractalus if you have it installed as this build is VR only.
You must use either the buttons/sticks on your VR controllers or a separate controller to play (a separate controller such as an Xbox 360 or Xbox One controller is recommended). Tracking/motion controls are not supported. Some controls may not be mapped to VR controllers (e.g. no button to open the in-game menu) and may require you to use your keyboard for those controls.
The camera motion has not been tuned for VR, and some of the camera motions (e.g. ship auto-levelling) can be disorienting or nauseating.
This build of Fractalus will start with the regular Unity startup dialog on the desktop which you must click "Play!" on. Each time the game starts it will enter a calibration mode to adjust the cockpit seat position so that your view is centered in the cockpit. You can re-run the calibration in game via Options | VR Settings | Calibrate VR.
You may find the cockpit seat position to be too close to the instruments. To compensate for this, move your headset forward from your seated position when calibrating.
Particle effects (atmospheric dust, explosions, sparks) rotate with your camera.
Some light flares (sun, crashed ship beacons) will sometimes not appear.
Alternative cockpit modes may not work correctly.
UI has not been fully adjusted for VR.

Children around the world are taught basic lessons as they learn language, culture and how to navigate among their fellow embodied human beings. Children are taught that harming others is bad and inflicting harm can result in others wanting to harm them in retaliation. For some reason, this lesson seems not to have stuck or maybe it has been neutralized by the intoxication of rampant unchecked capitalism among Republican leaders in our government.
Recently, totally-unqualified Education Secretary, Betsy DeVos put forward a proposal for budget cuts to her own department that would include more than $17M in cuts to Special Olympics. Without going into the vast reach of this program, the loss or scaling back of Special Olympics would mean a move back toward some of the darkest days of marginalizing people with disabilities, not only by making their achievements and their abilities invisible but by assuming that the private sector will miraculously step up. It was exactly that inequity that prompted Eunice Kennedy Shriver to found the program in the first place. DeVos' budget also includes cuts to after school programs that provide supplementary education and activity for children (mostly under served) whose regular schools are underfunded to begin with and also provides important programming for children where parents have to work full days to support their families beyond the hours of school. I would compare Ms. DeVos to Cruella de Vil, but Ms. de Vil is a fictional character and a comparison would diminish the violence of these kinds of budgetary cuts. Ms. de Vil also has more dimension.
In addition, the Senate has quite suddenly voted on the Green New Deal, stopping the measure with a 0 – 57 vote (all but four Democrats voted 'present' in protest). This was a purely political tactic taken by Sen. Mitch McConnell to stop any serious consideration of the measure in its tracks. The Senate Majority Leader basically took the Green New Deal and actively made it into a procedural footnote for the current Congress as a way of expressing a sentiment held by many of his Republican colleagues. For them, anything that aspires to change the status quo of capitalism for capitalism's sake, must be stopped. It is also the obvious agenda of this administration to willfully deny the impact and the sources of climate change, writing it off as left wing radicalism. This despite the fact that some of the hardest hit by climate change already are farmers and residents of the great plains states and low lying delta regions that continue to vote against their own interest by returning people like McConnell to office because of some mysterious affinity.
There is only one word for this: Evil. We are hearing less and less in political discourse about ways to be united and more and more about one side versus the other and what it means to be right. If our political system was broken by the 2000 election, it became infected after the 2008 and 2010 elections. 2016 was the beginning of organ failure and sepsis.
The vision shared by DeVos and McConnell is wholly one sided. One might be quick to claim that this is the same for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders, but the difference here is diversity. Republicans of all types are currently represented by the language, interest and priorities of politicians who are almost entirely white men even though the party and the nation does not share those exclusive traits. This is not the case of the Democratic representation in Washington, D.C. The Democrats have begun to look more like the diverse constituents they represent. Both situations pose challenges. For the Democrats this means learning to corral the wide-ranging and sometimes conflicting ideas of what justice and equity mean to different segments of the population; it is a challenge of expansion. For Republicans, this means that there is an expectation to tow a narrow party line, or face expulsion into an unknown abyss; it is a challenge of exclusion. If we are to have any hope of a peaceful and inclusive future, the mechanism that we have to create a shared public order, our government, cannot be dominated by one group of people who would prioritize wealth and entitlement for a limited few ahead of the human right to existence. Those were the same priorities that allowed slavery to be written into the Constitution, enabled the forced removal and genocide of native people and kept women disenfranchised from voting. Any child can understand the harm in that.

Q: How many integer solutions are there to the equation $x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + x_4 = 12$ with restrictions on $x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4$? How many integer solutions are there to the equation $x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + x_4 = 12$ with $x_i > 0$ for each $i \in \{1, 2, 3, 4\}$?  How many solutions with $x_1 > 1$, $x_2 > 1$, $x_3 > 3$, $x_4 \geq 0$?
So for the first part I did this:
We set $x_i = y_i + 1$ for $i = 1, 2, 3$ and obtain $y_1 + y_2 + y_3 = 12 − 3 = 9$.
So, there is one-to-one correspondence between the positive integer solutions of $x_1 + x_2 + x_3 = 12$ and the non-negative integer solutions of $y_1 + y_2 + y_3 = 9$.
Hence, both equation have the same number of solutions. Since $y_1 + y_2 + y_3 = 9$ has ${9+3-1 \choose 3-1} = {11 \choose 2} = 55$ integer solutions.
Is this correct?
For the second part I do not understand how to figure out how many solutions with $x_1 > 1$, $x_2 > 1$, $x_3 > 3$, $x_4 \geq 0$?

A: I am not sure why you have four variables in the statement of your question and three variables in your answer.  I will assume you meant to work with four variables.

How many integer solutions are there to the equation $x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + x_4 = 12$ with $x_i > 0$ for each $i \in \{1, 2, 3, 4\}$?

We wish to solve the equation
$$x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + x_4 = 12 \tag{1}$$
in the positive integers.
Method 1:  We reduce the problem to one in the non-negative integers. Let $y_k = x_k - 1$ for $1 \leq k \leq 4$.  Then each $y_k$ is a non-negative integer.  Substituting $y_k + 1$ for $x_k$, $1 \leq k \leq 4$, in equation 1 yields
\begin{align*}
y_1 + 1 + y_2 + 1 + y_3 + 1 + y_4 + 1 & = 12\\
y_1 + y_2 + y_3 + y_4 & = 8 \tag{2}
\end{align*}
Equation 2 is an equation in the non-negative integers.  A particular solution corresponds to placing three addition signs in a row of eight ones.  For instance,
$$1 1 1 1 1 + 1 + 1 1 1$$
corresponds to the solution $y_1 = 5$, $y_2 = 1$, and $y_3 = 3$, while
$$1 1 + + 1 1 1 1 1 1$$
corresponds to the solution $y_1 = 2$, $y_2 = 0$, and $y_3 = 6$.  Thus, the number of solutions of equation 2 is the number of ways three addition signs can be inserted into a row of eight ones, which is
$$\binom{8 + 3}{3} = \binom{11}{3}$$
since we must choose which three of the eleven symbols (eight ones and three addition signs) will be addition signs.
Method 2:  A particular solution of equation 1 in the positive integers corresponds to inserting three addition signs in the eleven spaces between successive ones in a row of $12$ ones.
$$1 \square 1 \square 1 \square 1 \square 1 \square 1 \square 1 \square 1 \square 1 \square 1 \square 1 \square 1$$
For instance,
$$1 1 1 + 1 1 1 1 + 1 1 1 1 1$$
corresponds to the solution $x_1 = 3$, $x_2 = 4$, and $x_3 = 5$.  Thus, the number of solutions of equation 1 in the positive integers is the number of ways three addition signs can be inserted into the eleven gaps between successive ones in a row of $12$ ones, which is
$$\binom{11}{3}$$

How many integer solutions are there to the equation $x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + x_4 = 12$ with $x_1 > 1$, $x_2 > 1$, $x_3 > 3$, $x_4 \geq 0$?

We reduce the problem to one in the non-negative integers.  Since $x_1$ is an integer, $x_1 > 1 \implies x_1 \geq 2$.  Similarly, since $x_2$ and $x_3$ are integers, $x_2 > 1 \implies x_2 \geq 2$ and $x_3 > 3 \implies x_3 \geq 4$.  Let
\begin{align*}
y_1 & = x_1 - 2\\
y_2 & = x_2 - 2\\
y_3 & = x_3 - 4\\
y_4 & = x_4
\end{align*}
Then each $y_k$, $1 \leq k \leq 4$, is a non-negative integer.  Substituting $y_1 + 2$ for $x_1$, $y_2 + 2$ for $x_2$, $y_3 + 4$ for $x_3$, and $y_4$ for $x_4$ in equation 1 yields
\begin{align*}
y_1 + 2 + y_2 + 2 + y_3 + 4 + y_4 & = 12\\
y_1 + y_2 + y_3 + y_4 & = 4 \tag{3}
\end{align*}
Equation 3 is an equation in the non-negative integers with
$$\binom{4 + 3}{3} = \binom{7}{3}$$
solutions.

Кувандыкский коридор, Оренбургский коридор (, ) — термин, используемый для обозначения Гайского и Кувандыкского районов Оренбургской области, которые отделяют Республику Башкортостан от Казахстана.

Происхождение термина и использование в политологии
Термин был введён в научный оборот американским политологом Полом Гоблом в 2013 году. Гобл считает, что появление общей башкиро-казахстанской границы отделит Москву от Сибири и создаст предпосылки для возможного признания независимости Башкортостана, а следовательно и других республик Урало-Поволжья.

В 2018 году на разрыв Оренбургского коридора намекнуло государственное информационное агентство Kazinform, которое опубликовало карту Казахстана, включающую в себя земли Оренбургской области. Новость быстро удалили, преподнеся публикацию карты как досадную ошибку. Поступок информагентства быстро прокомментировали международные обозреватели, в том числе российские. Дело в том, что в 2017 году генеральным директором государственного Kazinform был назначен Аскар Умаров, не скрывающий своих националистических взглядов, в том числе и в вопросе возвращения Орынбора (так казахи называют прежнюю столицу Оренбург).

Минобороны России после 2008 г. значительно улучшило охрану границ на участке. Так орская радиолокационная станция «Воронеж-ДМ», расположенная в Новоорском районе, заступила на опытно-боевое дежурство в 2013 году. В зоне кувандыкского коридора введен в строй суперлокатор системы предупреждения ракетного нападения, новые воинские части.

История

В 1918 году башкиры и казахи на волне распада Российской империи провозгласили свои национальные республики. Город Оренбург был одним из важнейших центров башкирского и казахского сепаратистских движений (Алаш-орда, Башкурдистан). В сентябре 1918 года в Уфе состоялось государственное совещание башкирских и казахских представителей..

После большевизации на месте национальных государственных образований башкир и казахов возникли автономные советские республики в составе РСФСР. Оренбург стал столицей Киргизской АССР (казахской национальной автономии), которая граничила на севере с Башкирской АССР.

В 1925 году руководство СССР изъяло Оренбургскую губернию из состава советского Казахстана, передав её непосредственно РСФСР. Был создан так называемый «Оренбургский коридор», разделяющий две тюркские республики. Впоследствии, исходя из решений по «уточнению границы», он неоднократно расширялся. «Сталинская» конституция 1936 года повысила статус некоторых автономных республик до уровня союзных. Среди прочих повысился статус и Казахстана. Согласно конституции, союзные республики имели право свободного выхода из СССР. Чтобы реализовать такую возможность, они должны были иметь общую границу с внешними государствами. Благодаря наличию «Кувандыкского коридора» Башкортостан не подходил под этот критерий — даже если бы ряды СССР покинул Казахстан. В итоге, Башкирская республика осталась в статусе АССР, хотя по территории и населению была сопоставима с рядом союзных республик.

Норма о «свободном выходе из СССР» перешла и в следующую советскую конституцию 1977 года.

Значение для сепаратистских настроений отдельных политических групп в Поволжье
Поскольку все 6 республик Поволжья не имеют выходов к внешним границам Российской Федерации — политологи и историки неоднократно ставили под сомнение реалистичность получения ими государственной независимости и выхода из состава РФ.

Представители татарских и башкирских сепаратистских групп считают создание советской властью Кувандыкского коридора вынужденным политическим шагом Москвы, направленным на отсечение земель Башкортостана от Казахстана. Директор Института истории им. Ш. Марджани академии наук Республики Татарстан Рафаэль Хакимов считает, что с этой целью царская и большевистская власть поощряла переселение в Оренбургские земли русских и украинцев.

Национальный состав
Стоить отметить что в азиатской части (Левобережье реки Урал) Оренбургской области казахи составляют 19,4 %, а в европейской части (Правобережье реки Урал) 2,8 %.

Bentley's postwar production started with the Mark IV, the production line pushing out a new, luxury 4-door sedan and some rolling chassis for independent coachbuilders. Vanvooren was a Parisian coachbuilder, founded in 1918, which had had a strong relationship with Rolls-Royce prewar, resulting in many examples of their coachwork on Rolls-Royce chassis.
Bentley used an F-head, six-cylinder engine of 4257cc (in 1949) and four-speed all synchromesh transmission - on right hand drive cars the gear lever was to the right, on left hand drive, that is American and Continental European market cars, it was four-on-the-tree. These were, and are, strong, handsome and useful cars.
This beautifully restored, very rare, left-hand drive 4-speed column shift two door coupe. This car wears a one-of-a-kind body by Vanvooren of Paris. The restoration on this car today would cost over $300,000. It was sold new by the authorized Rolls-Royce dealer in Paris, Franco Britannic to Ortis Linarcs on April of 1949. After coming to the United States it was restored in 2000 for Eugene Sorbo of Massachusetts. It was then sold to Charles Crail before being acquired by its current owner in 2008.
Vanvooren, founded in 1918, had a strong relationship with Rolls-Royce in the 1930s, resulting in many Vanvooren bodies built on Rolls-Royce chassis.

MELTON (15 POINTS) KEPT SIXERS IN THE GAME, EMERGING AS A STAR!
By Sarah Paley
De'Anthony Melton slashed 15 points (5-of-8 FGs), three rebounds, one assist, one steal, and five 3-pointers in Sunday's win over the Knicks, playing 27 minutes.
Melton made his first five 3-point attempts, giving the 76ers a boost during the first half.
Four of his makes came in the game's first 24 minutes, and with Philadelphia waiting for Joel Embiid to get going, those shots kept Philly within striking distance of the Knicks.
Also of note was the report during the ABC broadcast that Doc Rivers is open to going to a "small" starting lineup once Tyrese Maxey (foot) is cleared to return, with Tobias Harris (8/6/2 in 37 minutes) sliding down to the power forward spot.
"He kept us in the game," said Embiid.
"We had a slow start once again. Obviously, they got hot. It was too easy for them as far as they just kept getting whatever they wanted and he kept us in the game and we started getting to the line more often and then from there, we just knew what to do to be able to get the lead and win the game."
The Sixers shot 51.4% at halftime, but they trailed the Knicks by three because they weren't able to get enough stops. That's why Melton's offense in the first half was essential. While New York was in a groove, and the Sixers had a slow start, they needed the two-way stud to make some needed 3s.
"That's what he's here for," Harden said of Melton.
"He's extremely great defensively and then offensively, he just makes big-time shots. The last couple games, he had some wide-open shots that he just didn't make, but one thing about him, he puts in the work. So he's gonna continue to shoot his shot and today was big for us."

Solaris® improves the productivity and safety of your existing ballast cars by converting their gates to remote operation. The conversion uses a reliable and rugged 24-volt electric hydraulic pump and hydraulic cylinders to produce the force needed to open and close the gates. Solar panels recharge the system when not in operation, creating a low-maintenance system with no need for auxiliary airlines. Solaris converted ballast cars can be unloaded by either operating joysticks on the sides of the cars or by using a handheld radio remote control that has a range of up to 300 feet.
Solaris is particularly beneficial when combined with GateSync® technology to automate ballast delivery. If you currently have cars that are manually operated, Solaris provides a quick and easy upgrade to make them GateSync compatible.

Q: How would I split box plots made using geom_boxplot? I am using r studio to try to create a plot for RTs across conditions, with separate data for each of three speeds and four conditions, currently if I create a box plot it makes one for the entire condition (whole, front, back, deleted) rather than whole 33, whole 50, whole 100, front 33, etc.. I am unsure how to deal with this.
newData3$TaskName <- factor(newData3$TaskName, levels = c('Whole', 'Front', 'Back', 'Deleted'))
newData3$display <- factor(newData3$display, levels = c('33ms', '50ms', '100ms'))

ggplot(newData3, aes(x = display, y = RT, group = TaskName, fill = TaskName)) +
  geom_boxplot(position = position_dodge(), alpha = 0.7) +
  scale_fill_manual(values = c('darkorange3', 'royalblue1', 'seagreen4', 'goldenrod2')) +
  geom_point(data = newData3, mapping = aes(x = display, y = RT, colour = TaskName, alpha = .6, size = 1)) +
  scale_colour_manual(values = c('darkorange3', 'royalblue1', 'seagreen4', 'goldenrod2')) +
  labs(title = 'RTs', x = 'Condition', y = 'RT (ms)') +
  facet_wrap(~ TaskName) + theme_classic() +

Home > JMA, EXIM partner on loans programme
Published:Friday | July 8, 2016 | 12:00 AM
National Export-Import Bank of Jamaica (EXIM Bank) has set up a $30-million loan facility for members of the Jamaica Manufacturers' Association (JMA).
Small and micro-size manufacturers can borrow for terms of six to 36 months "whether for working capital, receivables financing, equipment or raw material purchasing, or any other productive inputs that are required for manufacturing," JMA Executive Director Imega Breese McNab told the Financial Gleaner.
Applicants can finance their raw material purchase under the six-month loans, while equipment and spare parts upgrades are financed over the three-year period.
Companies must also be in operation for at least two years to access the credit window.
"Outside of the loan programme, companies also have access to (another) $1.5 million from EXIM," Breese McNab said.
Interest is calculated on the reducing balance on the unsecured loan at 12 per cent.
"In 2012 the JMA introduced a micro and small business grouping. Today, there are over 80 members in that special membership facility, and based on a needs assessment, financing always came out as number one in the area that they need assistance with," the executive director said.
"When we asked the companies, 'If you could get money tomorrow, what would you want it for?', they told us equipment, raw material purchasing and production," she said, noting the loan programme was structured to bring financing within the reach of the small and micro sector.
"A lot of them weren't able to access the facilities because they are companies that are earning probably less than $10 million and employing less than five persons, so they weren't able to access those facilities that needed collateral requirements," said Breese McNab
If the current facility works well, the partners are open to expanding the amount of credit available for lending to manufacturers, she said.

Description ~ from the House of Fenton, and out of the 80s, comes to you this gorgeous glass compote - done in cameo satin glass and decorated w/chocolate roses, this double crimped compote was expertly decorated by A. Mason - it's a striking piece that is sure to be the highlight of any chocolate roses collection. This "footed comport" is ware #7429.
Condition ~ Excellent: pre-owned vintage - while the comport could stand to use a good cleaning, it is otherwise showing little evidence of age or use, and is chip/flake free. Shelf wear &/or use marking is minimal if any.


I'm not coming up with any clear idea of what that means.
What color is the smoke? My guess is white and that you have a blown head gasket. Check your coolant level and look for signs of water in the oil (oil looking like a milkshake). If you have a compression gauge or vacuum gauge, use it.
If the smoke is more like blue/gray/black, what does it smell like? If it smells like fuel (rather than sweet like coolant) then you might just be running really rich. That would be much less of a problem and I'd first suggest checking out the coolant temperature sensor.
If it turns out to be a head gasket, and you plan to fix it, first do an internet search on Ford Escorts & Focuses (Foci?) dropping valve seats. If that head gets pulled, put it back on completely reworked with the new improved valve seats.
The smoke is blue and smells like gas. When I mean the car acts like you have a flat tire meaning, thats how rough it is riding. The fuel pump and fuel filter are fairly new. The check engine light is not on.
The rough riding may be something else entirely like suspension problems - or it is from misfiring. Can you tell?
In this case, it sounds like you're running too rich or just have really poor ignition. There are so many reasons that can happen that it might be most straightforward to have it put on a scanner to get into the PCM's data stream.
If you're going to tinker with it yourself, avoid replacing parts on guesses since you'll quickly spend more time & money than you you'd had someone put it on a scanner.
Have a look at the spark you're getting. It should be strong, bright & blue. The coil packs in those cars are prone to failure. You can do a basic check on it by measuring resistances between the towers. I think Autozone's online repair manuals provide the specs. Some auto parts stores can test things like that and do it for free.
I would check the fuel pressure (you'd be looking for pressure too high). When doing that you should be able to see whether the fuel pressure regulator (FPR) is doing its job, but pull the vacuum hose for the FPR and look for liquid gasoline. If you find gas in that vacuum line, replace the regulator.
Check the coolant temp sensor. This is fairly easy with a multimeter - you can probably get the resistance specs from Autozone's online repair info.
Check and clean your mass airflow sensor (MAF). Use only MAF cleaner on it. While you're at it make sure the air filter is clean and there are no airflow restrictions. If you have a K&N filter, clean the MAF and put a stock filter back on for a while.
Do everything you can to check for vacuum leaks. (Though it might seem this would lean things out, it has the opposite effect if the computer is trying to compensate for it). The best way is a smoke test. A vacuum gauge is very helpful. If you don't want to go for a smoke test, you can rig a hose to a propane torch and run propane around all of the vacuum connections and the intake/intake manifold.
Bad O2 sensor readings can mangle the mix. Its an expensive guess though. The best way to test them is to have a shop scope them, but you can at least check the wiring for them. You should probably also check for exhaust leaks.
You can pull the fuel rail and check out the spray patterns on the injectors and look for leakdown.
Are you sure that the bulb for the check engine light isn't burned out?


Confession time. Every now and then, someone says I'm their favorite author or one of their favorite authors. First off, this is hugely flattering. I know how I feel about my own favorite authors, and to be able to do that for someone else? That's amazing. It's a gift.
But… I also think, "Oh no, you must not have read [my own favorite author] yet! Because they should really be your favorite author, not me!" I want to give them Robin McKinley, Ray Bradbury, Lois McMaster Bujold, and a dozen others. The real favorite authors, you know?
I've learned not to say that out loud. But I'm almost always thinking it.
Well, you ARE one of my favorite authors. I wait eagerly for books from you and a handful of other authors and get impatient when the collections of words aren't in print yet (usually immediately after the previous volume is finished and put on the shelf). I'm impatiently waiting for the next books from James S.A.Corey, Kelley Armstrong, Jim Butcher and Ramez Naam, among others.
Your hardback books of mine reside on a shelf with my Lois McMaster Bujold firsts and my Heinlein collection. Bujold has at least partially eclipsed Heinlein as one of my favorite authors, and I may never have known Bujold if not for reading a following your work.
I read on a Q&A page from a few years ago that you had not read Clarks Rama series. Have you since been able to correct that omission?


Staff at Newquay Zoo are thrilled at the hatching of three Roul roul partridge chicks in the Tropical House exhibit.
The Zoo has held the birds as part of their collection for 6 years, but until now had no luck with breeding the species.
Roul roul partridges mate for life. During the breeding season the birds will make a dome shaped nest in which to lay their eggs. The female bird is completely hidden when inside the nest, which is great protection for the eggs from predators, which the male will watch out for whilst the female incubates the eggs.
Under threat from lowland deforestation throughout its range, these lovely birds are present in several protected areas in Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. They are one of a number of amazing colourful birds at Newquay Zoo that call the humid tropical house their home.

Nanotechnology labs around the world do love to experiment with carbon nanotubes, often offering up some rather peculiar contraptions made out of the wonder material like the â''Nano Radioâ''.
But these lab curiosities are often just examples of what can be done with carbon nanotubes, theyâ''re not really intended to lead to commercial products.
But the latest one described in the October 29, 2008 online edition of Nano Letters and further detailed over at Nanowerk does seem to have commercial aspirations.
Dr. KaiLi Jiang, an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics & Tsinghua-Foxconn Nanotechnology Research Center at Tsinghua University in Beijing, and his collaborators see commercial possibilities for the carbon nanotubes loudspeakers they have developedâ''a demonstration of which can be seen in the video below.
While Jiang believes that the technology might create applications not yet considered, one that has been proposed would "be laptop computers where the current audio system could be replaced simply by putting a transparent loudspeaker film over the display area".
Unfortunately, in the same Nanowerk article in which this application is proposed the next sentence offers up â''application in revolutionary new design concepts for tomorrow's electronics such as the Nokia Morph mobile phoneâ'' as a viable commercial usage.
Iâ''ve heard on fairly good authority that few involved in the Morph project were looking at a commercial product as much as they were looking for a way to demonstrate the advancements in plastic electronics. Better to leave that particular â''future applicationâ'' off your list.

Das Cine Valira war das erste Kino in Andorra.

1934 wurde das Kino im Hostal Valira in Escaldes-Engordany eröffnet. Betreiber war die Familie Ribas Duró. Die beiden 35-mm-Filmprojektoren stammten von der Firma Supersound S.A. aus Barcelona. Der Konstrukteur Hugo Texidó hatte diese Maschinen mit der Bezeichnung Supersound-Vanguard III entwickelt. Sie waren mit Lichtbogenlampen bestückt, die mit einem in Luft brennenden Lichtbogen zwischen den Graphit-Elektroden als Lichtquelle dienten. Die Projektoren waren bis Ende der 1950er Jahre im Einsatz und wurden 2007 durch die Unterstützung der Julia Reig Foundation restauriert. Sie befinden sich heute im Museum.

Seit den Umbau- und Restaurierungsarbeiten 2005 wird das ehemalige Kinogebäude als Museum Centre d'Art d'Escaldes betrieben, im vorderen Teil des ehemaligen Lichtspieltheaters befindet sich eine Bank.
