Karel Salmon (* 13. November 1897 in Heidelberg; † 15. Januar 1974 in Beit Sa'yit bei Jerusalem; Geburtsname: Karl Salomon) war ein israelischer Komponist, Sänger (Bariton), Pianist, Organist, Dirigent und Musikadministrator deutscher Geburt.

Leben
Geboren als Sohn eines Kaufmanns, erhielt Karl Salomon seine erste musikalische Ausbildung an der Heidelberger Musikakademie. Seit 1912 nahm er an der Universität an Tonsatzkursen Philipp Wolfrums teil. In diese Zeit fallen auch die ersten Kompositionsversuche, darunter eine Sinfonie. Bis zum Tode Wolfrums genoss Salomon dessen persönliche Förderung. In Heidelberg trat Salomon als Organist auf und leitete u. a. die Proben zur Uraufführung von Der Einsiedler (1916), dem letzten Chorwerk von Max Reger. In der von dem Kunsthistoriker Wilhelm Fraenger gegründeten Kulturgruppe "Die Gemeinschaft" stellte er seine Werke vor. 1920 schloss Salomon sein Studium bei Richard Strauss in Berlin ab und wirkte dann als Sänger und Theaterkapellmeister in Hamburg, Baden-Baden und Berlin. Neben dem eigenen Komponieren widmete er sich der Bearbeitung älterer Musik, darunter Händels Oper Rodelinda (1932)

Nach der Machtergreifung der Nazis 1933 musste und konnte Salomon Deutschland verlassen. Umfassend begabt als Sänger und Pianist, Dirigent und Komponist, Bearbeiter und Organisator wurde Karel Salmon, wie er sich nun nannte, zu einem integralen Bestandteil europäischer Kultur in Israel. In führenden Positionen wirkte er am Aufbau des Musiklebens Palästinas mit. In Jerusalem gründete er ein Kammerorchester, dirigierte an der Palestine Opera, unterrichtete am Konservatorium und leitete als Musikdirektor Chor und Orchester der Hebräischen Universität Jerusalem. Nach Aufnahme des Sendebetriebes der Jerusalemer Rundfunkstation, zunächst noch unter britischem Mandat als Palestine Broadcasting Service (PBS), seit 1948 als Radio Israel (Kol Israel), wurde Salomon zum Musikdirektor der hebräischen Abteilung ernannt. 1957–1962 leitete er als Direktor den Auslandsdienst des Israel Broadcasting Authority's Transcription Service.

Zunächst in Neve Ya'acov, zwischen Jerusalem und Ramallah, wohnhaft, siedelte Salomon später um nach Beit Zayit bei Jerusalem, wo er auch starb.

Werke
In Israel entstanden Salmons wesentliche Kompositionen: Opern und Orchesterwerke, weltliche und geistliche Chormusik, Kammermusik, Klavierstücke, Orgelwerke, Lieder.
David und Goliath, Oper nach biblischen Motiven (1930, rev. 1956)
Viermal Methusalem, Oper nach biblischen Motiven (1965/66, produziert vom ZDF 1968)
Nedarim (Gelübde), nach einer altjüdischen Legende (1954, UA 1955 konzertant im Kibbuz En Gev).
Shir Hatekuma (The Song of Affirmation), Oratorium. Der hebräischen Textbearbeitung von Avigdor Hameiri liegt ein Text von Moshe Yakov Ben Gabriel zugrunde.
Chajei adam (Ein Menschenleben) Kantate für Chor und Orchester. (1967 zu seinem 70. Geburtstag komponiert)
Der Ton, Kantate auf Verse aus Arno Nadels religiösem Gedichtwerk; ein frühes Hauptwerk (1921)

Auch in der Instrumentalmusik, orientiert an traditionellen Formen, suchte der Komponist wiederholt den programmatischen Einbezug von Volksmelodien oder Motiven der Geschichte und Gegenwart seines Landes:
Salomons Sephardische Suite für Kammerensemble nach Melodien jüdisch-spanischer Gesänge; Widmungsträger ist Pablo Casals (1947)
 Jerusalem Konzert für Glockenspiel und Orchester (1948)
 Zweite Sinfonie "Leilot bi-Chna'an" (1949)

Sinfonischen Suite über griechische Themen. Die kunstreich instrumentierte Bearbeitung von vier griechischen Volkstänzen zeigt die Einbindung von orientalisch-jüdischem und griechischem Idiom in Melodik, Rhythmik und Klang. (1943, auch für Klavier und für zwei Klaviere bearbeitet). 1951 erhielt der Komponist für dieses, sein bis heute populärstes Werk, den Engel-Preis.

Daneben stehen Lieder sowie Volks- und Nationalliedbearbeitungen.

Sexual and reproductive health rights are key issues for young women in Zambia. This year the constitution-making process provides a critical opportunity to put the debate on women's bodies and choices around sexuality and abortion front and centre. In a context of staunch conservatism articulated by religious and traditional beliefs, there has been little progress on entrenching these rights. "Women in desperate circumstances will continue to seek backyard abortions and use herbs to attempt termination," says JASS partner and Youth Vision Zambia Executive Director, Amos Mwale. "Meanwhile as we continue to debate, a lot of women continue to die from unsafe abortions in the townships, or from accessing the services of quacks."

E3 2019 ⋮ Exclusive ⋮ Gaming ⋮ Interview
Zelda: Link's Awakening Interview: Nintendo on New Features, if the Game's for Kids, More
By Nathan Birch
Jul 1, 2019 15:00 EDT
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening has long been my favorite 2D Zelda game. For years, I've argued it's better than the original Zelda, A Link to the Past, or any of the others, and it seemed nobody would listen to me. So, needless to say, it was pretty gratifying when Nintendo announced they were remaking Link's Awakening earlier this year. Finally, vindication! But is the return of Link's Awakening too good to be true? Is Nintendo doing right by the cult classic?
At E3 2019 I got to play a 20-minute demo of Zelda: Link's Awakening, which covered the iconic opening moments of the game (finding your sword, exploring the Mysterious Forest, making the Magic Powder to get past that darn raccoon) and I can report the game feels exactly as it should. Link is quick and responsive, and slashing enemies with your sword is properly satisfying. The layout of the world doesn't seem to have changed at all, so I managed to find my way with no problem (which earned me compliments on my Zelda skills from the Nintendo rep demoing the game). This version of the game does offer a few small, yet welcome tweaks – enemies now have actual AI, chasing you and responding to your attacks, rather than just following a pre-set pattern. The game's menus also look much more elegant, with a new detailed map that should make exploration much easier for folks who don't have the entire game memorized.

But ultimately, the main thing that really sets this new Link's Awakening apart, are it's visuals. This is an absolutely gorgeous game, with a huge amount of love infused into each screen. Everything in this game, from Link, to the enemies, to the NPCs are just so gosh-darn adorable. Even the Witch is cute! While I was moving as fast as I could to get through the demo in the time allotted, I really wanted to just hang out in the world and drink it in. And really, that's about all I have to say about the Link's Awakening demo. I didn't get to see a lot of new elements, like, for instance, the game's new Chamber Dungeons, but I'm absolutely confident Nintendo is doing right by this classic.
After going hands-on with The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, I got a chance to sit down with Nintendo of Canada's Andrew Collins, who answered a handful of questions about what makes the game unique, Chamber Dungeons, the new Link's Awakening Amiibo, and more!
Nintendo announced a Zelda: Breath of the Wild sequel at E3. With that on the horizon, why should people also be hyped for Zelda: Link's Awakening?

I think one of the key things about Link's Awakening, is that it's a reimagining of an absolute classic. So many years after the original, there's still people who have such a strong reaction to it. When I saw [Link's Awakening] was being reimagined, I was over the moon, because it would be a great way for me to share the Zelda experience with the kids. It works on two levels -- you have the people like myself, who can introduce it to the next generation of Nintendo gamers, and then you've got those younger gamers who will be experiencing this story for the first time.
I actually had the same thought! My son who was definitely on my mind while playing. Is the game intentionally aimed at younger players?
Not necessarily. Link's Awakening is a game that will work for everybody. It's a classic Zelda game, it's got the beautiful look of a Saturday-morning cartoon, but I've played it with people of pretty much all ages here at E3. Everybody enjoyed it. There wasn't a sense that it was a kids' game. It's a game that has this appeal, but behind it is substance, and this great, classic Zelda story.
What's been added to this version of Link's Awakening for those who are already really familiar with the game? Is there be some sort of second quest or remix mode?
One of the key things we've done, is we've taken a look at the original game, and tried to find ways to refine it. We looked at the menu system, because if you remember from the original, you do spend quite a bit of time in the menus. We've been able to reinvent the menu process, so you don't spend nearly as much time in the menus. Another example is the map screen -- now you can manage a lot more things, and put reminders in there. For example, if there's a stone blocking a dungeon you can't lift up yet, you can put a marker down there and come back when you've got some extra strength. The enemies are also more intelligent. In previous games, you could run past them and they wouldn't react, but now they know that you're there. So there are a lot of things that change how you play a little bit.
But no new mode? Something unlockable perhaps?
Well, not that we're talking about at the moment.
The remixable Chamber Dungeons are a cool feature. Will you able to share your creations online?
We haven't shared anything about that. We'll go into more detail about chamber dungeons as we get closer to launch in December.
The new Link's Awakening Amiibo is dangerously cute. What does it do in the game?
Any of the Legend of Zelda character Amiibo, you can scan to add additional chambers into the Chamber Dungeon. You can up to about, I think it's five, different chambers. The Link's Awakening Amiibo will add certain modifiers to your dungeon.
Could we see more 2D Zelda remakes on Switch after Link's Awakening?
E3 is all about games playable later this year, so we don't have any more information about that. We have plenty of Zelda titles keeping us busy!
Thanks for taking with me, Andrew!

The Weeknd After Hours
By Jacob Carey
The Weeknd has remained Toronto's biggest musical enigma since stepping out onto the scene with his House of Balloons debut in 2011. Despite initially wishing to keep his identity a secret, Abel Tesfaye has grown into a household name, acclimating himself comfortably among the models and superstars of the Los Angeles limelight.
Although the Weeknd may now be living in the public eye, his music has always allowed him to remain shrouded in mystery. The release of his fourth studio album, After Hours, has been teased as Chapter VI of his musical career since early 2018. And, typical to every one of his releases, early fans begged for this to be the one that revisits the same dark and melodic roots that made the mixtapes that comprised Trilogy such a success.
While the Weeknd's sound has veered off track from his early feel in the past, After Hours gives fans the closest taste to Trilogy that they will get. The 14-track LP touches upon themes of sex, infidelity, substance abuse and the mind of a man torn between life as a contemporary pop icon and a past life of crime and misguidedness. Even though the subjects may not be sung about with as much grit as they once were, they are certainly darker than the pop genre that's entrapped the artist in recent years.
Metro Boomin, Illangelo and Max Martin make up most of the producing credits on the tracklist. "Faith" and "Snowchild" are the initial standout songs, and, apart from the bookends that begin and conclude the album, there are no skips on After Hours.
The Las Vegas aesthetic that Tesfaye adopted as promo for the newest record is fitting. The album's use of '80s synth, occasional saxophone and an Elton John sample fit the air of the album that fans were anticipating. After all, After Hours does feel like the Weeknd's very own version of Vegas — a place where overindulgence, self-loathing and promiscuity are not only welcomed, but encouraged. (Republic)

"Actually, outsourcing is most prevalent in the public sector. Organisations such as Serco, Capita and Mouchel have built their businesses in the public sector by taking on work that ranges from setting up laboraties to running prisons. With the right solution, the provider community will see some success in the public sector, but outsourcing in this instance should not be associated with offshoring!


You begin each stage of Rainbow Islands at the bottom, and your goal is to climb all the way to the top where it says "GOAL". To do this, you must either jump from platform to platform, or create rainbows and climb on top of them to get higher. However, Rainbow Islands is much more complex than it immediately appears.
When you begin a new game, there are seven islands, and each island is broken up into four separate vertical stages, for a total of 28 stages. However, there are three additional items which are initially hidden. You must perform a particular task on each of the seven original items in order to reveal the three hidden islands. These three islands bring the stage total up to 40.
On each island, you must complete the four stages by climbing from the bottom of the stage to the top. Each stage of an island is typically taller than the previous stage. Along the way, you must dodge and/or attack the various enemies that occupy the stage. When you reach the very top, a treasure chest will fall from the sky, open up, and deposit a number of items around for you to collect. These items will always be worth 500 points regardless of how much they might be worth if you collected them during the stage.
At the end of the fourth and final stage of each island, you must do battle with a boss. Each boss has a health meter. That meter can be depleted by attacking and crushing the boss with rainbows. Once the boss is defeated, another treasure chest will appear. In addition to the regular 500 point items, one large 100,000 point item will appear from the chest.
If you defeat the boss of the seventh island, but fail to make the three hidden islands appear, you will receive the normal "bad" ending to the game.
In order to make the final three islands appear, you must collect the seven large diamonds from each of the original islands. In order to collect a large diamond from each island, you must manage to collect all seven small diamonds before reaching and defeating the boss. If you possess all seven small diamonds when the boss is defeated, the treasure chest that appears will contain a large diamond instead of another large food item. You will be able to see which islands you have collected all of the diamonds for when you see the island map.
Once you make it to the final three islands, your effort to collect the seven small diamonds does not end. Instead of earning large diamonds after defeating the boss of an island, you must collect the three mirrors that are needed to earn the true "good" ending. If you do not have all seven small diamonds when you reach the boss, you will not be able to collect one of the mirrors, and thus not be able to see the true ending.
It's one thing to make a large diamond appear when you defeat the boss of an island. It's entirely different to make a silver door appear. Silver doors appear at the top of the screen when the boss appears. In order to make a silver door appear, not only must you collect all seven small diamonds, but you must collect them in order. That is, you must collect them from red to violet, or from violet to red. If you collect any diamond out of order, you will not be able to access the silver door at the end of the island.
If you manage to collect all seven small diamonds in order, and make the silver door appear, you can jump through the door at any time during the fight. Passing through the silver door, you will find the large diamond or mirror for that island, along with a giant powerup. The effects from the giant powerups found behind the silver doors are permanent, and will last until the end of the game. The only exception are the gold doors found behind the silver door of Island 5. These doors allow you to warp ahead to Island 7 or Island 8. If you wish to see the true ending, you must avoid using either one of these doors.
The presence of the silver doors makes it possible to earn an incredible amount of points. To do this, you must wait to jump through the door until after you have defeated the boss. The treasure chest will drop down and release the large diamond or mirror. Collect the 100,000 point item and then race up to the silver door before the game advances you onto the next island. Once through the door, you'll be able to collect the same item again for double the points.

Meet the Executive Producer
A conversation with Mike Drake ('Just Mercy') on the path to becoming and EP, and the role of social responsibility in the evolution of storytelling
Executive producers have been frequently called the CEO of a film or television production, because of the significant role they play in steering the direction of a project. The role can, however, sometimes be an unclear and complicated one for those not in the know. What's more, with Hollywood's push towards greater diversity, equity, and inclusion, the significance of their role requires an evolution to see better representation on screen and behind it. We spoke with executive producer Mike Drake (The Whole Nine Yards, A Simple Favor, Just Mercy) about what an EP does and how to be a successful one – especially when faced with the need for greater social responsibility.
What does an executive producer do?
"Basically, you're either one of three roles," explains Drake. "You are either paying for it, had a hand in developing it (or are partnered with a talent who did), or make it. You can do one, two, or all of those things at once." What do those three roles look like in action?
If an executive producer is financing the film, then it's pretty simple: their bank account becomes the production's. However, an EP doesn't always directly fund a project. Sometimes, instead, they work towards securing funding, approving and monitoring budgets with producers and line producers, and liaising with financiers where needed.
If an EP is involved in developing a project, that typically means they have nurtured an original story idea, acquired adaptation rights to existing material, purchased a script, or paired themselves with A-level talent to work on a narrative they'll try to sell to studios.
Lastly, if an EP is overseeing the making of a film or television series, they can be a critical part of several elements of production. They can be involved in everything from overseeing the script, to bringing talent (actors, directors, producer) on board, hiring the crew, monitoring production, providing notes during post-production, and can even be a part of resolving any legal concerns or marketing the project.
Executive Producer, Mike Drake
Drake compares his EP approach to being like "a fancy version of a line producer." He likes to be the go-to person for the financial, logistical, and creative aspects of a project. "I'm the one that's going to drive the production plan and have a big say in how it gets made: when, where, at what time, and [for] how much money," he says. "I'm the one that everyone turns to ask, 'How are we going to do this?' and can respond, 'Let me figure it out.'"
How do you become an executive producer?
Because of the wide range of responsibilities an EP can (and cannot) have, it's understandable that there are no academic programs dedicated to learning the ropes. That said, it's not uncommon for EPs to have studied filmmaking, creative media production and technology, or business management in school. But from there on, there isn't an official, clearly defined, road map. Some (privileged with time and money) pursue material to turn into a film, and the connections to realize it. Some work their way up through the industry, exploring positions like production coordinator or line producers first.
Drake did the latter. After earning a degree in screenwriting, he pursued internships in the parallel industry of commercial production. (A path others, like editor Randy Bricker, have found themselves taking too). He first started at a visual effects company, before moving to an internship at Steve Golin's video production company, Propaganda Films, where filmmakers like Spike Jonze, David Fincher, and Antoine Fuqua cut their teeth.
It was an anxious time for Drake. "I didn't have a mentor or anyone that could say, 'Hey, you know, those internships will lead you into production, and these internships lead you in development," he says. It could lead to feelings that will undoubtedly resonate with aspiring EPs today too. "You're petrified that you won't even be able to work in the business. It seems impossible."
As I've gotten older, I've been more focused on having a specific intention, when the opportunity presents itself, to get involved in projects that I think may help shift the narrative of how we see ourselves as humans.
Despite the obstacles, it wasn't impossible. Even if Drake was unsure of his future, he was gaining valuable experience, and quickly, thanks to the fast-paced world of commercial production. "The cycle turns over so quickly - like within weeks, as opposed to months or years," he says. He went from intern, to production coordinator, to production manager, in a short span of time. And this acceleration gave him enough confidence – at 24 – that when a college friend who was making low-budget movies at Showtime, asked Drake to work together, it was an easy decision. Soon, he was working his way up fast, yet again – line-producer, associate producer, co-producer, and then executive producer.
Drake says he accomplished this by being willing to learn, and to be of use. "It's paying attention and trying to be helpful," he says. It was especially critical – through roles like line producer – to study how a project coheres from top to bottom. "A lot of people gravitate towards production based on the fact that it's cool to make a movie. They don't understand the scope of the business and how all the pieces come together," he says. Also important? Some elbow grease. "I worked until my fingers were bloody and I did not stop moving," he says.
What makes a successful executive producer?
Beyond the cultivation of relationships, hard work, strong management skills, good storytelling abilities, and more, what makes a good EP is understanding that filmmaking is a mercurial process. Screenwriter William Goldman famously wrote that in Hollywood, "nobody knows anything" and Drake agrees with that wisdom. "Filmmaking is like life - an imperfect, messy process," he says. "It doesn't matter how many films you make or how long you do this, you'll never know everything. That's just the simple truth."
What's also true is that valuable lessons can nonetheless still be learned from the messy process of filmmaking. Which is why Drake offers one critical piece of advice: "Try to quietly pay attention to what worked, what didn't work, and why it didn't work," he says.
Drake also stresses that what defines a successful executive producer has changed in the last several years. "Filmmaking is a business and it's escapism," he says. "But sometimes you have to make something that may make a bigger impact." That means accepting social responsibility and doing more to ensure the diversification of subject matter, cast, and crew.
Michael B. Jordan and Jamie Foxx, 'Just Mercy' / Warner Bros.
It's why, for example, Drake was passionate about making Just Mercy, a film starring Michael B. Jordan about a civil rights attorney looking to free a wrongly convicted man. "As I've gotten older, I've been more focused on having a specific intention, when the opportunity presents itself, to get involved in projects that I think may help shift the narrative of how we see ourselves as humans," he says.
It's also why Just Mercy became a powerful milestone in the push towards normalizing the adoption of inclusion riders to ensure more diverse cast and crews. Changing the industry in that way needs to fall in the purview of the EP, Drake believes. "I'm the one that generates the hire," Drake says. "You can think about who is the best person for the job while also being mindful of a very simple ratio. Trying to make sure that half the film [crew] is women, a person of color, or a person of LGBTQ."
Taking charge of that push towards greater diversity will require the same elements that make becoming a good EP possible. "It's the passion of telling stories," he says. "And it's largely about perseverance."

aeolus satellite data
Overall complications involved in the instrument caused an estimated 50% final cost overrun, so ESA had to come up with additional funding for the project.[10]. For more details, please visit ESA Earth Online Portal. The mission will thus improve the knowledge of all sorts of weather phenomena, from global warming to the effects of air pollution. ESA scientists asked NASA for support; however, NASA has minimal experience with lidar of this design. This page is the gateway to access and download the free and open Aeolus science data products. For further details about the data quality improvements, please see ESA Earth Online Portal. The main goal of this mission is to further develop the knowledge of Earth's atmosphere and weather systems. [13] One year of usage has resulted in reduced power from the primary laser. It includes tools for studying various atmospheric parameters, in space and time, measured by the Aeolus satellite. Aeolus is seen as a mission that will pave the way for future operational meteorological satellites dedicated to study Earth's wind profiles. In 2014 integration of ALADIN instrument was completed and vacuum along with vibration testing begun. Read more. [10] A €32.57 million launch contract with Arianespace was signed on 7 September 2016. Aeolus, or, in full, Atmospheric Dynamics Mission Aeolus (ADM-Aeolus), is an Earth observation satellite operated by the European Space Agency (ESA). Aeolus was launched in August 2018 to test the usefulness of direct wind profile observations from space for numerical weather prediction. [3] Aeolus is the first satellite capable of observing what the winds are doing on Earth, from the surface of the planet and into the stratosphere 30 km high. [1] ADM-Aeolus is the first satellite with equipment capable of performing global wind-component-profile observation and will provide much-needed information to improve weather forecasting. The satellite completes an orbit around Earth every 90 minutes. [11] The launch finally took place on 22 August 2018 on a Vega rocket from French Guiana at 18:20 local time. [15] The Rayleigh receiver employs a dual-filter Fabry–Pérot interferometer with a 2 GHz resolution and 5 GHz spacing. The spacecraft was built by Airbus Defence and Space. It analyzes the wings of the Rayleigh spectrum with a CCD; the etalon is split into two zones, which are imaged separately on the detector. As from 8 October 2020 Aeolus Near Real Time (NRT) data products are openly available in the latest production baseline 11. It was built by Airbus Defence and Space and launched on 22 August 2018. ESA then decided to switch to a backup laser that had not been used, offering the opportunity to complete the expected 3 year life of the satellite. The wind-component profiles will be measured by the Atmospheric LAser Doppler INstrument (ALADIN). From Tromsø, the data are sent for further processing to the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts in Reading, UK, and to ESA's centre of Earth observation, ESRIN, in Frascati, Italy. Although there are several ways of measuring wind from a satellite, Aeolus will utilise the active Doppler Wind Lidars (DWL) method. Detailed information on the ESA's Wind Earth Explorer Mission, on the relevant Product Format Specifications and data processing algorithms, as well as on data unavailability periods and blacklisted data can be found on the ESA Earth Online Portal.
This dataset continues to be available in production baseline 10.
The orbiter was named after Aeolus, a god from the Greek mythology, the ruler of the winds. For further details about the data quality improvements, please see ESA Earth Online Portal. 2020-09-30. 2. [15] The transmitter architecture is based on a 150 mJ pulsed diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser, frequency-tripled to provide 60 mJ pulses of ultraviolet light at 355 nm. In mid-2019, ESA determined that the UV laser was losing power: it started with pulses of 65 millijoules once it reached orbit, but that energy declined 20 to 30 percent in the first nine months, and was losing one millijoule per week in May. Its altitude is a low 320 km (200 mi)[2] for enough backscattered light sensibility, inducing a short 3.25 years life expectancy.[5]. From Tromsø, the data are sent for further processing to the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts in Reading, UK, and to ESA's centre of Earth observation, ESRIN, in Frascati, Italy. Wind information in thin cloud or at the tops of thick clouds is also attainable; from the data processing, information on other elements like clouds and aerosols can also be extracted. These predictions will be useful in the short-term, since they can be applied to numerical weather prediction in order to make forecasts more accurate. ECMWF started assimilating wind data from the European Space Agency's ground-breaking Aeolus satellite operationally on 9 January 2020 after tests showed that they significantly improve weather forecasts. Launches are separated by dashes ( – ), payloads by dots (. [7]:70, Aeolus was designed to be compatible with many small-capacity launch vehicles such as Vega, Rockot or Dnepr. Access to other products are limited to dedicated expert groups. The Aeolus satellite downlinks its scientific data to the ground station in Svalbard, Norway. Level-0 data are raw data as measured by the Aeolus satellite, Level-1 data are time-series of preliminary science data along the satellite's orbit where basic calibration has been applied, Level-2A data are time-series of aerosol and cloud layer information along the satellite's orbit, Level-2B data are time-series of fully processed profiles of wind along the satellite orbit, which are used for weather forecasting at the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, Level-2C data are time series of 3D wind vector profiles along the satellite track, which have been produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts model after ingestion of Aeolus Level-2B data.
The ultraviolet laser was causing damage to the optical surfaces in a vacuum.
All rights reserved. The data will be disseminated to the main numerical weather prediction centres in near-real time. The ALADIN instrument (Atmospheric Laser Doppler Instrument) is a direct detection ultraviolet laser lidar consisting of three major elements: a transmitter, a combined Mie and Rayleigh backscattering receiver assembly, and a Cassegrain telescope with a 1.5 metres (4.9 ft) diameter. Technology required for the satellite was pushing the technology envelope; therefore, after problematic development, ESA asked Airbus to perform additional full-model tests in a vacuum before continuing mission development. The Aeolus satellite downlinks its scientific data to the ground station in Svalbard, Norway. Additionally, the Aeolus Level-2C data product is now openly accessible, which provides the ECMWF model wind vectors at the geolocations of assimilated Aeolus L2B winds.

By recording and monitoring the weather in different parts of the world, Aeolus will allow scientists to build complex weather models, which can then be used to help predict how that environment will behave in the future. As from 8 October 2020 Aeolus Near Real Time (NRT) data products are openly available in the latest production baseline 11. The spacecraft was built by Airbus Defence and Space.
VirES for Aeolus is a highly interactive data manipulation and retrieval interface for ESA's Aeolus mission products. Development of the ALADIN instrument has been problematic. by using explicit FTPS (FTP over SSL/TLS and using passive mode), with your own EO-SSO credentials. Aeolus is the fifth planned satellite in the Living Planet Programme (LPP) of the European Space Agency (ESA). [15][16] The Mie receiver consists of a Fizeau interferometer with a resolution of 100 MHz (equivalent to 18 m/s). You have already liked this page, you can only like it once. The scientific data, however, are downlinked from the satellite to the ground station in Svalbard, Norway. The report[17] also said that the satellite's orbit at 320 km required re-boosting every week, limiting the satellite's life to the available propellant. © ESA.
The data are then sent to Tromsø for processing to Level-1 and Level-2. [6] In 2014 integration of ALADIN instrument was completed and vacuum along with vibration testing begun. The received backscatter signal produces a linear fringe whose position is directly linked to the wind velocity; the wind speed is determined by the fringe centroid position to better than a tenth of the resolution (1.8 m/s). CODA and HARP. Note that the full collections of Aeolus products can be searched and browsed but currently only wind products (Baseline B10, B11) are publicly available for downloading.

After switching to the second laser, the instrument is meeting mission objectives.[14]. The space laser's data … [8] In November 2013 ESA scheduled the launch on a VEGA in one of the five flights of the VERTA Programme,[6][9] but in 2015 launch was postponed to August 2018 due to problems with their lidar development. In order to download any products of interest, please login with your own ESA EO-SSO account or create one beforehand (Start registration process). [12], The satellite was launched on 22 August 2018. This is the only method that has the potential to provide the required data globally, from direct wind observations. [15] The lidar is aimed 35° from nadir and 90° to the satellite track (on the side away from the Sun).[15]. The data are then sent to Tromsø for processing to Level-1 and Level-2. Additionally, the Aeolus Level-2C data product is now openly accessible, which provides the ECMWF model wind vectors at the geolocations of assimilated Aeolus L2B winds. Artwork: Aeolus circles the Earth at an altitude of 320km Europe's novel wind-measuring satellite, Aeolus, has reached a key milestone in its mission. The access and use of Aeolus products are regulated by the ESA's Data Policy and subject to the acceptance of the specific Terms & Conditions.Users accessing Aeolus products are intrinsically acknowledging and accepting the above. Three months of testing was conducted before including data in weather models. The previous baseline 09 has been reprocessed in baseline 10, which provides users access to a fully homogeneous dataset from 20 April to 8 October 2020. Moreover, the dataset of baseline 10 is now further complemented by the reprocessed L1B and L2B products from 28 June to 31 December 2019. [15] This frequency was chosen because of the increased Rayleigh scattering in the ultraviolet region of the spectrum, and because it is eye-safe at distances greater than several hundred metres. [4]

E02 (Fit) Chapter Introduction
e02bc: FL CL CPP AD
e02bcf (dim1_spline_deriv)
e02bcf evaluates a cubic spline and its first three derivatives from its B-spline representation.
Subroutine e02bcf ( ncap7, lamda, c, x, left, s, ifail)
Integer, Intent (In) :: ncap7, left
Real (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (In) :: lamda(ncap7), c(ncap7), x
Real (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (Out) :: s(4)
void e02bcf_ (const Integer *ncap7, const double lamda[], const double c[], const double *x, const Integer *left, double s[], Integer *ifail)
void e02bcf_ (const Integer &ncap7, const double lamda[], const double c[], const double &x, const Integer &left, double s[], Integer &ifail)
The routine may be called by the names e02bcf or nagf_fit_dim1_spline_deriv.
e02bcf evaluates the cubic spline s(x) and its first three derivatives at a prescribed argument x. It is assumed that s(x) is represented in terms of its B-spline coefficients ci, for i=1,2,…,n¯+3 and (augmented) ordered knot set λi, for i=1,2,…,n¯+7, (see e02baf), i.e.,
s(x) = ∑ i=1q ci Ni(x) .
Here q=n¯+3, n¯ is the number of intervals of the spline and Ni(x) denotes the normalized B-spline of degree 3 (order 4) defined upon the knots λi,λi+1,…,λi+4. The prescribed argument x must satisfy
λ4 ≤ x ≤ λ n¯+4 .
At a simple knot λi (i.e., one satisfying λi-1<λi<λi+1), the third derivative of the spline is in general discontinuous. At a multiple knot (i.e., two or more knots with the same value), lower derivatives, and even the spline itself, may be discontinuous. Specifically, at a point x=u where (exactly) r knots coincide (such a point is termed a knot of multiplicity r), the values of the derivatives of order 4-j, for j=1,2,…,r, are in general discontinuous. (Here 1≤r≤4; r>4 is not meaningful.) You must specify whether the value at such a point is required to be the left- or right-hand derivative.
The method employed is based upon:
(i)carrying out a binary search for the knot interval containing the argument x (see Cox (1978)),
(ii)evaluating the nonzero B-splines of orders 1, 2, 3 and 4 by recurrence (see Cox (1972) and Cox (1978)),
(iii)computing all derivatives of the B-splines of order 4 by applying a second recurrence to these computed B-spline values (see de Boor (1972)),
(iv)multiplying the fourth-order B-spline values and their derivative by the appropriate B-spline coefficients, and summing, to yield the values of s(x) and its derivatives.
e02bcf can be used to compute the values and derivatives of cubic spline fits and interpolants produced by e02baf.
If only values and not derivatives are required, e02bbf may be used instead of e02bcf, which takes about 50% longer than e02bbf.

1: ncap7 – Integer Input
On entry: n¯+7, where n¯ is the number of intervals of the spline (which is one greater than the number of interior knots, i.e., the knots strictly within the range λ4 to λn¯+4 over which the spline is defined).
Constraint: ncap7≥8.
2: lamda(ncap7) – Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Input
On entry: lamda(j) must be set to the value of the jth member of the complete set of knots, λj, for j=1,2,…,n¯+7.
Constraint: the lamda(j) must be in nondecreasing order with lamda(ncap7-3)>lamda(4).
3: c(ncap7) – Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Input
On entry: the coefficient ci of the B-spline Ni(x), for i=1,2,…,n¯+3. The remaining elements of the array are not referenced.
4: x – Real (Kind=nag_wp) Input
On entry: the argument x at which the cubic spline and its derivatives are to be evaluated.
Constraint: lamda(4)≤x≤lamda(ncap7-3).
5: left – Integer Input
On entry: specifies whether left- or right-hand values of the spline and its derivatives are to be computed (see Section 3). Left- or right-hand values are formed according to whether left is equal or not equal to 1.
If x does not coincide with a knot, the value of left is immaterial.
If x=lamda(4), right-hand values are computed.
If x=lamda(ncap7-3), left-hand values are formed, regardless of the value of left.
6: s(4) – Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Output
On exit: s(j) contains the value of the (j-1)th derivative of the spline at the argument x, for j=1,2,3,4. Note that s(1) contains the value of the spline.
7: ifail – Integer Input/Output
On entry, ncap7=⟨value⟩.
On entry, lamda(4)=⟨value⟩, ncap7=⟨value⟩ and lamda(ncap7-3)=⟨value⟩.
Constraint: lamda(4)<lamda(ncap7-3).
On entry, x=⟨value⟩, ncap7=⟨value⟩ and lamda(ncap7-3)=⟨value⟩.
Constraint: x≤lamda(ncap7-3).
On entry, x=⟨value⟩ and lamda(4)=⟨value⟩.
Constraint: x≥lamda(4).
The computed value of s(x) has negligible error in most practical situations. Specifically, this value has an absolute error bounded in modulus by 18×cmax×machine precision, where cmax is the largest in modulus of cj,cj+1,cj+2 and cj+3, and j is an integer such that λj+3≤x≤λj+4. If cj,cj+1,cj+2 and cj+3 are all of the same sign, then the computed value of s(x) has relative error bounded by 20×machine precision. For full details see Cox (1978).
No complete error analysis is available for the computation of the derivatives of s(x). However, for most practical purposes the absolute errors in the computed derivatives should be small.
e02bcf is not threaded in any implementation.
The time taken is approximately linear in log(n¯+7).
Note: the routine does not test all the conditions on the knots given in the description of lamda in Section 5, since to do this would result in a computation time approximately linear in n¯+7 instead of log(n¯+7). All the conditions are tested in e02baf, however.
Compute, at the 7 arguments x=0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, the left- and right-hand values and first 3 derivatives of the cubic spline defined over the interval 0≤x≤6 having the 6 interior knots x=1, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, the 8 additional knots 0, 0, 0, 0, 6, 6, 6, 6, and the 10 B-spline coefficients 10, 12, 13, 15, 22, 26, 24, 18, 14, 12.
The input data items (using the notation of Section 5) comprise the following values in the order indicated:
n¯
lamda(j), for j=1,2,…,ncap7
c(j), for j=1,2,…,ncap7-4
x(i), for i=1,2,…,m
This example program is written in a general form that will enable the values and derivatives of a cubic spline having an arbitrary number of knots to be evaluated at a set of arbitrary points. Any number of datasets may be supplied. The only changes required to the program relate to the dimensions of the arrays lamda and c.

Perfumes Guyana offer both products and services satisfying the functional and emotional needs of its customer by delivering high quality products with unique selling proposition and excellent customer service complimenting the process. Marketing plays an important role in building awareness and as such a variety of media channels are used to target various audience. This report analyses the main distinct features differences of consumer preferences and marketable strategies applicable to increase awareness of intangibles.
An element of the marketing mix is Product. According to (Philip Kotler)"Product is anything that can be offered to someone to satisfy a need or a want" while( William J. Staton) explains that "A product is a set of tangible and intangible attributes, including packaging, color, price, manufacturers and retailers prestige and services, which the buyer may accept as offering satisfaction of wants and needs." Perfumes Guyana offers tangible products such as colognes and perfumes which can be held, seen, felt and smell and satisfy the needs of the user. Customers purchasing these products can return items for an exchange if not satisfied maybe they purchase a wrong fragrance. Upon completion of payment, ownership is transferred the moment transaction is completed. These products are considered perishable having a long life and can be stored for later use. Beside its physical appearance, a product has many dimension. According to Philip Kotler, "The consumers will favor those products that offer most quality, performance and features." Each product has a life cycle including the introduction, growth, maturity, and the sales decline phase. Utilizing the 4 P's in the marketing mix allows the company to create a competitive advantage over its competitors.
According to Philip Kotler, "A service is an act of performance that one party can offer to another that is essentially intangible and does not result in the ownership of anything. Its production may or may not be tied to a physical product." The cash cow of Perfumes Guyana includes lotions, body mist and perfumes, accompanying these includes professional customer assistance and testimonials. The 4P's combined with people, physical evidence and processes is generally used in the service industries. Services are inseparable from their users since they are consumed at the same time they are offered, for example, a hair cut from the barber. Once the hair cut is completed the service cannot be returned to the service provider because of the intangibility. The quality of service can be determined based on the consistency or may be difficult to compare due to different service provider. Unlike a product, service has shorter shelf line.
Table below shows comparison of a product and service.
Who comes to whom?	Products come to customers.	Customers come to service.
Transfer	It can be owned and resold to another party.	It is neither owned nor transferred to another party.
Returnability	Products can be returned.	Services cannot be returned after they are rendered.
Tangibility	They are tangible, so customer can see and touch it, before coming to the buying decision.	They are intangible, so it is difficult to promote services.
Separability	Product and the company producing it, are separable.	Service cannot be separated from its provider.
Customization	Products cannot be customized as per requirements.	Services vary from person to person, they can be customized.
For competitive edge in Perfumes Guyana, the marketing department must dedicate time to make intangibles tangible. Being more innovative and using different marketing strategies can differentiate the services offered from that of its competitors and at the same time attract a wider audience and build brand loyalty.
Store employees are the intrapreneurs and the ones interacting with customers on a regular basis. Excellent customer service can be portrayed through constant training and motivation from management. People is an element of the marketing mix theory which contributes to the overall success of the company. Perfumes Guyana can implement a reward scheme for "employee of the month". This initiative would recognize employees who have displayed exceptional manner by exemplifying outstanding service through his or her work and exhibiting a positive and supportive attitudes. Once the employee fulfill the criteria necessary for the title, the picture of the staff can be displayed on the wall visible to customers. This form of recognizing staff will boost their performance and allows customers to feel more welcome and appreciated. This will prove that the company has acknowlegable workforce readily available to offer solutions and advises to assist customers in satisfying their needs and wants.
When customers place their orders, they expect to receive it on a timely manner. Perfumes Guyana offers free delivery service to its customers. The marketing department can focus on adding "free delivery " on the customer's invoice, on their social media page, face to face interaction and bumper stickers on company's vehicle. This message will be seen and acknowledge by customers reassuring them of timely delivery. Providing such services the company should under promised and over delivered which will delight customers and create loyalty.
Testimonials can be incorporated into the marketing strategies of Perfumes Guyana. Nothing can be more persuasive than a customer who is loyal and a believer in a brand. The marketing department can seek permission from loyal customers to share their shopping experience. This message can be uploaded to the company's social media sites, publish in newspaper and even on television. Building awareness and market share can be guaranteed from such strategy since the customer would be able to express and convince others of the products and services offered.
Generally, Perfumes Guyana offer both goods and services. However, they do have significant differences in terms of tangibility and intangibility. Tangible goods are easier to market and fulfil a need unlike a service which require the use of tangible elements to build relationships. Technology has impacted the company significantly ans the marketing department can utilize the opportunities available to competitive.


"Walk in a curve" have an effect.
In the book "on speaking terms with dogs", Turid Rugaas describes the calming signal "walk in a curve when you meet a dog".
Dogs do this when they meet to show that they are friendly and want to avoid conflict.
What happens to the dogs heart rate when a stranger walk in a curve towards the dog.
And what happens to the dogs heart rate when a stranger walk straight towards the dog.
This it is an ongoing project, and most likely will be for a long period to get as many readings from dogs as possible.
We have to mention Calming signals, because this is the background for the project.
As you know the dog communicate with us all the time through sound and body language.
The dogs use calming signals to avoid conflicts, reduce stress and unpleasant situations, one of the things they do is to walk in a curve when they meet other dogs.
We can use these signals to communicate better with dogs.
How is this connected with stress/anxiety?
Every dog has some stress during the day.
As we have mentioned, dogs never approach each other straight on except sometimes puppies and young dogs that has not learned polite behavior.
Observations shows that dogs can get tense in this situation, and it is likely to think that the pulse increases.
This can turn into insecurity, anxiety and fear when they meet people that walk straight towards and it fells threatening.

Okay, one last photo from today: the Queensboro Bridge from the Roosevelt Island Tram 🚡 on our way home this afternoon.
Every once in a while you get a day that is just about perfect. Today was one of those days for me. Pizza and soda at a charming little pizza joint, a walk through Central Park (with stops at a couple of playgrounds, of course), gazing at little remote-controlled sailboats on the Conservatory Water (seen here), a visit to the Central Park Zoo, some ice-cream bars, and a ride on the Roosevelt Island Tram on a summer day with gloriously clear views. Just me and my five-year-old. Just perfect.

The Bayonne Bridge connects the New York City borough of Staten Island to Bayonne, New Jersey, over the Kill Van Kull. It opened 15 November 1931 as the longest steel arch bridge in the world. (Today it is the fifth longest.) Originally the roadway was 46 meters (150 feet) above the water at high tide, which was enough clearance for the United States Navy's tallest ships at the time. To accommodate today's larger ships, particularly the largest ships that can use the Panama Canal, in 2013 a project to raise the roadway within the existing arch began. The project was finished 24 May 2019, when the reconstructed walking and biking path on the east side of the bridge — where I took this photo — opened. The roadway is now 66 meters (215 feet) above the waters of the Kill Van Kull.

One more image from my trip to Ossining last Saturday. Ossining is best known as the location of the infamous Sing Sing Prison, the New York State penitentiary. But it is also a picturesque little village nestled in a small valley next to the Hudson River about 50 kilometers (30 miles) north of New York City. Through the center of the valley flows the Sing Sing Kill. ("Kill" is an old Dutch word for creek or stream. It is in the name of a lot of waterways in the New York City region and other parts of the Northeast.) At the heart of the village are these double arch bridges crossing Sing Sing Kill. The higher, larger one was built in 1842 and carries the original Croton Aqueduct; while the aqueduct was decommissioned in 1955, the top of the bridge is now a pedestrian path. (My previous Instagram post, showing the inside of the aqueduct, is looking into the tunnel as it begins crossing this bridge.) The lower bridge was built in 1861 and carries a local street called Broadway over the kill; as you may be able to see, the lower bridge is currently being preserved and rehabilitated.

Q: MOSFET On/Off Switch Power Dissipation Basic setup: A battery is discharged using some lightbulbs wired in parallel. At various points throughout the discharge cycle, lightbulbs are switched off in order to increase the resistance of the load to slow the rate of discharge. I'd like to be able to easily switch the bulbs remotely/automatically.
MOSFETs would be triggered via voltage monitoring relays to switch the light bulbs off when required. The triggering voltage applied to the gate would come from a dedicated power supply, and would be completely independent of the discharge load. The MOSFETs would be either fully on or fully off at all times. Each bulb in the chain would get its own MOSFET. There would also be a "master MOSFET" that would be an on/off for the whole setup.
Suppose the resistance of the master MOSFET is listed as 1.05 Ω when it is on. The voltage of the battery is 250 V, the resistance of the bulbs was 150 Ω and thus the battery was discharging at about 1.6 A. How much power is the MOSFET dissipating?
Basically I'm just confused as to how or why MOSFETs would be required to dissipate much heat at all in this particular setup.
Here's what I'm looking at. I think I've properly upscaled for my application, but doing an Ohms Law calculation for 250 V and 1.05 Ω turns up a laughable result, so I'm obviously not running the right equation or else I'm looking at a very wrong component. Perhaps you'll spot some other red flag in this spec sheet I'm totally overlooking.

A: \$(1.6 A)^2 * 1.05 \Omega = 2.7 W\$
The power is only ridiculously high, if you don't have the bulb in series.
Still consider that 2.7 W is still appreciable power and needs good cooling or a lower resistance MOSFET.
Also consider, that these MOSFETs have large gate charge. If you turn them on/off too slowly they will briefly dissipate 100s of Watts and can get destroyed in this instants.
E.g. it might have 100 Ohm resistance during the turn on phase. You now have 1 Amp flowing through it already dissipating 100 W.

Police: Man suspected of raping 12-year-old girl turns himself in
Thursday, January 10, 2019 5:30 AM EST
Thursday, January 10, 2019 10:30 PM EST
PELHAM BAY -
Police say the man accused of raping a 12-year-old girl at a motel in Pelham Bay turned himself in Thursday afternoon with his attorney.
Police say the incident took place at the Hutchinson-Whitestone Motel on Westchester Avenue on Friday, Jan. 4.
The man has been identified as Carlos Medina, 51, of the Bronx. He was charged with two counts of rape, predatory sexual assault, criminal sexual act, criminal impersonation, act in a manner injurious to a child and two counts of sexual abuse.
Authorities say Medina, who was caught on surveillance video, approached the victim in a black SUV on Elder Avenue in Soundview around 10:30 p.m. Police say he displayed a badge during the encounter.
News 12 is told the 12-year-old girl was taken to the hospital and is in stable condition.
The manager of the motel told News 12 that an adult coming to the front desk to book a room with a minor is required to show an ID. However, the manager says he left the 12-year-old girl in his car.
The manger also adds he doesn't know if the suspect was asked to show an ID to the front desk person because he wasn't working that night.
He says they don't ask for identification for regulars and won't start now despite this incident. He does, however, say they will more cautious looking for new faces given that this suspect was a new customer.
Medina was walked out of the Special Victims Unit Thursday night in Hunts Point with is head slumped as he faced cameras and reporters.
Councilman Mark Gjonaj says he was incredibly disturbed by the incident.
"There's a heavily populated community ... schools are in walking distance and we could've jeopardized everyone that lives here," says Gjonaj.
Gjonaj says he reached out to the motel's manager regarding safety measures.

US Government Should Better Combat Anti-Asian Racism
More than 1,000 Covid-19 Related Incidents Reported

In Brooklyn, New York, an Asian woman suffered an apparently race-based acid attack while taking out her garbage on April 5. A few weeks earlier in Texas, a man targeted and stabbed a Burmese-American man and his two children, ages 2 and 6, at a Sam's Club. He said he had attempted to kill the family because he believed they were "Chinese and infecting people with the coronavirus." One of the children had a laceration wound from his ear across his eye.
These are among the worst examples of thousands of anti-Asian incidents that have been reported since the Covid-19 crisis began. Two weeks after launching its Coronavirus Anti-AAPI Racism Incident Report platform in mid-March, a coalition of Asian-American groups has received over 1,100 reports of incidents of coronavirus-related attacks and racial discrimination. Many more cases likely go unreported.
United States President Donald Trump's use of the term "Chinese virus" may have fanned the flames, but although he has stepped back from using the term and issued a tweet in support of "our Asian-American community," he has not directed a strong governmental response towards protecting Asians and people of Asian heritage. (Notably, although the US is a party to the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, Trump hasn't nominated a representative to the treaty's monitoring body.)
Still, federal government agencies can act on their own to address this upsurge in racism. The US Commission on Civil Rights has recently raised concerns about the new racism and violence. Additionally, the Department of Education has issued guidance to educators, directing them to protect students at risk of anti-Asian harassment, after a 16-year-old Asian-American boy was attacked by his classmates and hospitalized. And the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has stated that during Covid-19, protecting civil rights and investigating hate crimes remain a high priority. But the FBI should also set up a task force to focus on the specific new problems associated with Covid-19 and better coordinate with local and state officials.
Federal agencies that have stayed silent should also work to protect people from Covid-19 related bigotry. Racism against Asian-Americans is real, and it is dangerous. The US government needs to take it more seriously.

Select a theme for each set of place mats, such as "summer memories," or "winter wonderland." For mine, I chose photos from the beach on a Florida trip. Or, you could simply cover each place mat completely with photos of a certain family member. To save even more, look for free photo offers to get your prints for less.
Cut a piece of tagboard into a large rectangle (14″ x 20″) or use a place mat that you already have as a design template. Repeat the process for as many place mats as you'd like to make. Tagboard can be found at The Dollar Tree for 3/$1.
Next, arrange your photos on the tagboard. This can be the tricky part, but realize that it doesn't have to be perfect. Cover both sides for reversible place mats. Secure them to the tagboard using a glue stick. Note: It's important to make sure that you don't use school glue or anything that will cause the photos to bubble up, otherwise you'll have problems with bubbling after they're laminated. I'd recommend also weighting them down with heavy books for a day or two, just to make sure they're completely flat before laminating them.
To finish, bring them to an office supply store like Staples or Kinkos to be laminated. This is really the only part of your project where cost adds up, so if you have access to a laminator through work you may really be able to do this project inexpensively. For me, the cost was $3.00/sq. foot to have them done. The large ones I made came out to be $6/each, but if we had made smaller ones they would have cost in the $4.50 range.
We made these for Thanksgiving – they were a BIG hit!
Love the place mats! But, what is "tag board?" Will the Dollar Tree employees know what this is?

Q: SSIS fails to access file with UNC path I've deployed a SSIS package to SQL Server, which should read data from flat file, which is located here:

I can access path just fine from my local machine and I can run package from Visual Studio just fine too, however once I try to execute it on SQL Server, I get the following error:

Currently (just to debug) everyone has full access to this folder.
How do I fix it so my package works fine? (P.S. I don't have sysadmin rights, could it be the reason?)
I'm using Windows Authentication to login into SQL Server.
I execute my package from SSISDB. Screenshot for reference:

A: Right click on folder, properties--> In security tab, check whether your server account is added with full control permission. Lastly you can share the folder where file is placed with everyone, better to skip this sharing though if previous one works

Here's the Quick Way to Understanding the New 'Halloween' Family Tree
Everybody knows that Michael Meyers and Laurie Stroud are siblings. What the new Halloween trailer presupposes is... Maybe they aren't?
The new Halloween trailer dropped today and, once again, Michael Meyers is on the hunt for Laurie Stroud. But while the trailer will surely thrill any horror fans, you may find yourself confused about some of the plot details mentioned in the new trailer, specifically how exactly this movie fits into the larger Halloween universe. The newest Halloween has a very different family tree. Here's what's new.
The trailer opens with an investigator visiting Meyers at a prison for the criminally insane, where he has spent "the last 40 years in captivity." At that moment, most people might be wondering what the hell is going on, as we all know Meyers did not spend those 40 years in captivity. He spent that time murdering random people, surviving countless attempts on his life, and, of course, trying to kill Laurie, who he has a very special connection with.
In Halloween II (1981), it is revealed that Michael Meyers wasn't actually just trying to kill a random babysitter in the suburbs of Illinois. He was trying to kill his sister, as Laurie was secretly given up for adoption when she was a baby. This twist has proven to be incredibly divisive, as most fans feel giving Meyers such a clear motivation and backstory undermines the pure evil of this psychotic killer.
And based on the new trailer, it appears these complaints were heard loud and clear, as Halloween goes out of its way to let viewers know that, canonically, all those other sequels (and the two remakes) no longer exist, meaning that Laurie and Michael are no longer siblings. In a bit of metacommentary, the trailer even addresses the notion of Laurie and Meyers being siblings and dismisses it outright. Instead, Meyers has been rotting in jail for 40 years, while Laurie has been trying to forget about that time a serial killer chased her around with a knife.
Both have been patiently waiting for a reunion and now it's finally here. And just like Michael and Laurie, we can't wait to see who comes out alive.

Q: ReactNative unlink not working with react-native-push-notification? Recently I added react-native-push-notification to my react native project and this error appears when project startup.

> react-native run-android

error React Native CLI uses autolinking for native dependencies, but the following modules are linked manually:
  - react-native-push-notification (to unlink run: "react-native unlink react-native-push-notification")
This is likely happening when upgrading React Native from below 0.60 to 0.60 or above. Going forward,
you can unlink this dependency via "react-native unlink <dependency>" and it will be included in your
app automatically. If a library isn't compatible with autolinking, disregard this message and
notify the library maintainers.

I used unlink command and it says successfully unlinked, but error doesn't disappear. I manually checked in those files too,

Visby   város Svédország délkeleti részén, Gotland megyében, Gotland község területén, Gotland szigetén.

Székhelye Gotland községnek. A város lakossága 23 576 embert számlál. A város kiemelkedő állapotban fennmaradt városmagja 1995 óta az UNESCO Világörökség egyik helyszíne. A legjelentősebb történelmi romok között találjuk a 3,4 kilométer hosszú városfalat, amely a város magját öleli körbe, valamint számos templom romjait.

Visby népszerű nyári üdülőhely a skandináv országokban élők számára és több ezer látogató keresi fel évente. A svéd szárazföldön túli területeken ez a leglátogatottabb idegenforgalmi célpont. A Gotlandi Egyetem Visbyben található, amely 2013. július elseje óta az Uppsalai Egyetem kihelyezett tagintézményeként működik az Uppsalai Egyetem–Gotlandi Campusa név alatt. Visby egyúttal az egyetlen olyan megyeszékhely Svédországon belül, amelyet mind a tengeren, mind légi úton el lehet érni.

Nevének eredete
Visby neve az ónorvég vis, azaz pogány áldozati hely szóból ered, míg a by utótag a falu jelentéssel bír. A 14. században keletkezett Gutasagában a vis jelentése szent hely, istentisztelet helye jelentésű.
Visbyt időnként a Rózsák városa néven is emlegetik, valamint a Romok városa elnevezés is jellemző e városra.

Történelme
Visby legkorábbi történelmi említése bizonytalan, de úgy tudjuk, hogy időszámításunk szerint 900-ban már kereskedelmi központként funkcionált. A település már a kőkorszak elején benépesült, feltehetően a friss ivóvíz könnyű elérhetősége és természetes kikötője okán.

A 12. században megépült a Szűz Mária tiszteletére felszentelt Visby székesegyház. A 13. század során átépítették és ekkor alakították ki ma is ismert külsejét. Hivatalosan 1225-ben nyitotta meg kapuit a hívek előtt, mely ceremóniát Linköping város püspöke celebrálta. A következő évszázadok során számos további templomépületet építettek fel a város területén. A város virágkorát a német eredetű Hanza-szövetségnek idején élte.

A városfalat a 12. században kezdték el építeni. 1300 környékén átépítették és ekkoriban érte el jelenlegi méreteit, illetve kialakítását tornyaival együtt, jól lehet egyes tornyok a 15. századig nem épültek fel. A falgyűrű jelentős része napjainkban is sértetlenül áll.

A 14. század első felében Visby befolyása és jóléte a virágkorát élte. A Wisbuy törvényeknek köszönhetően széleskörű hajózási jogokra tett szert a város a Balti-tengeren és azon túl.
1361-ben Gotlandot elfoglalta IV. Valdemár dán király és az ütközet során Visby lakosságából 1800 fő veszítette életét a város falainak előterében. Valdemár leromboltatta a városfal egy részét, felállíttatott e falszakasz helyén három nagy méretű söröshordót és azzal fenyegetőzött, hogy ha a városban élő emberek nem töltik meg fosztogatások során arannyal és ezüsttel a hordókat, akkor további pusztítást visz véghez a városban. A városi honatyák teljesítették a király kérését a templomok ereklyéinek felajánlásával. Valdemár uralkodói nevének előtagjául a Gotland királya titulust is felvette. A Hanza Szövetséghez tartozó Visby fenyegetettsége egy a dán királyság elleni háborúba taszította a szövetséget. Ugyanakkor annak ellenére, hogy Valdemár számára számos engedményt tettek a szövetség tagjai, Visby városa mégis dán kézen maradt.

1391-ben, 1394-ben és 1398-ban a várost megtámadták és kifosztották a Vitális Testvérek, akik a Balti-tenger hírhedt kalózai voltak. A Német Lovagrend lovagjai elfoglalták Gotlandot 1398-ban, elpusztították Visby jelentős részét és kiűzték a kalózokat a területről. 1409-ben Ulrich von Jungingen, a Német Lovagrend nagymestere garantálta a békét a Kalmari unióval, amikor eladta Gotland szigetét I. Margit dán királynő részére.

1411-ben VII. Erik dán király megépíttette a visborgi (mai nevén Visby) kastélyát és oda helyezte át székhelyét 12 évre, abban az időben, amikor a város kalózok tanyája volt és ennek nyomán a kereskedelem szünetelt. 1470-re a Hanza Szövetség visszavonta Visby tagságát a szövetségben.

Name a more perfect combo than denim skirts and shirts. You can't, the words even rhyme, that's how well they go together! My absolute favorite time of year is when the weather is warm enough to wear skirts. With that weather around, I've decided to spice up my usual skirt and t-shirt with an off-the-shoulder top, specifically this red one, that I got for $20! Holla!
This outfit is definitely one of my favorites at the moment as I love the boho vibe it brings. With a pair of circular sunnies and some cute sandals, you seriously can wear it anywhere.
As for the top, I found this one at Nordstrom Rack on their sale rack, so I've found some alternatives, such as this one and this one.
My shoes are from UGG, and I found them here, as they were SO difficult to find elsewhere. They also come in black, and navy blue!
Thank you! Ugh so jealous!
I love this casual style. Looks great!
Thank you so much! I love how easy it is to throw it together!
Thank you! I didn't either for the longest time, but they are SO comfy! One of my favorite sandals this summer!
that skirt is just too cute! I need to find a flattering denim skirt for me.
Thank you! It's one of my favorite pieces in my closet right now!
I have a lot of Denim but i don't have a denim skirt, shame on me. LOL! That outfit is so cute and you look so pretty in those.
Yes shame on you! You've got to get one! Thank you so much!
