FOR VISITORS from UK : Things to do and tips!
► STATISTICS: The United Kingdom has long been Florida's most important international market outside of Canada—the numbers show why. Every year, 1.7 million tourists from the UK visit Florida — more than visitors from Germany, Mexico, Australia, China and India combined. But it's more important than just the volume of visitors, Visit Florida Florida President Will Seccombe said. British tourists spend and spend and spend. British tourists combined spent $1.5 billion on their visits, dwarfing what travelers from any other nation but Canada spend. The data shows us a Brit is going to spend more than any other foreign visitor. ……Statement December 10, 2016 from Visit Florida, the State's official tourism marketing agency based in Tallahassee.
► WHILE IN MIAMI DO TAKE A CRUISE from the many beautiful liners which sail from PortMiami. Many visitors over from the UK take side cruises–you'll hear the British accents onboard. TO BOOK: Contact the British Bureau's cruise partner JoEllen Shatz with CruiseOne. Many of you know JoEllen as our agent from our Brilliant Brits cruises in 2000 on the QM2 and our 2008 Brits cruise to Bermuda, have previously booked cruises with her and report great satisfaction and savings. We recommend JoEllen highly. A fulltime cruises specialist since 1999, she has unparalleled experience with every cruiseline sailing out of Miami or Ft. Lauderdale to any destination/itinerary. As an agent, there's not a Florida-based ship she has not tried firsthand. She is based near Port of Miami's cruise ships. Reach JoEllen on  374-6477 or email query with your contact phone number to: jshatz@cruiseone.com NOTE: You can't get a cruise cheaper by booking yourself and JoEllen will give you the exceptional personal service booking a cruise always involves.
► MIAMI Recommendations: British visitors to Miami may ask us for a first hand recommendation on where to eat in Miami or other advice.
Email your query to britishbusinessflorida@gmail.com Your query must include your name + home city. The ex-pat publisher of this website has lived in the heart of Miami for 15 years and knows every square inch!
► TIMEOUT–the UK's most comprehensive weekly reference publication on everything there is to do, has come to Miami. Smart move. With so much happening across Miami's burgeoning new districts TIMEOUT MIAMI is the perfect fit and a deep market for advertising, methinks. Pick up a copy of TIMEOUT MIAMI wherever you see one–well worth it! Have a look at their website www.timeout.com and click on the Miami section. They only started publishing in December 2016 and only twice a year it seems, not weekly as in London. They distribute the magazines mainly around hotels in Miami Beach and Miami. I live/work in a downtown hotel, so picked up reference copies for my office. Am impressed. Obviously aimed at visitors, its jam-packed colour pages showcase everywhere to eat, drink, explore and play across the city. There are also brief recommendations for other parts of the state to visit, like Key west.

► Want more nookie, British tourists? Come to Miami, Mate. MIAMI IS OFFICIALLY THE USA'S "Most Sexual City"!! Its residents——with tourists like you bold Brits augmenting the number—account for the highest numbers of sexual encounters per year. People in the Magic City make magic 177 times year, more than any other city in America, including Sin City Las Vegas or the City-that-Never-Sleeps New York. How do we know? Condom-maker Trojan surveyed thousands of adults in every state. Why Miami? The year-round warm weather allows people to show more skin, feel freer and sexier about their bodies and ladies aren't hiding their charms in overcoats. Plus Miami's large hot-blooded Latin community offers stunning Brazilian/Venezuelan/Colombian beauties for lusty Brit blokes to enjoy a holiday romance. American women are pretty too but not exotic. Also the cosmopolitan blending in Miami of so many nationalities and the round the clock drinking hours leads to more partying.
► Also always consult website www.miami.com for everything to do in the city.
► Come to our events just for Brits—-network and mingle with resident expats Brits. Go to British Events pages on this website for current happenings or send email to britishflorida@aol.com with ATTEND BRITISH EVENTS on the subject line. Include your name + city you live.
► MIAMI HAS A DAILY WATER TAXI. The bright yellow boats marked WATER TAXI have several stops along Biscayne Bay and the Miami River in a hop-on, hop-off loop from downtown Miami– to Miami Beach—to Bayside Marina downtown—then along the Miami River. I have taken it and recommend it to you as a way to see the city from a different perspective. You can buy tickets on the boat or in advance from their website www.watertaximiami.com Consult the website for schedules–which can change! Or phone  600-2511. It's owned by a Dutchman called Max.
► RECOMMEND YOU TRY THIS! Miami now has red double-decker buses, run by Big Bus Tours of London, offering Sightseeing tours around the city. These are Hop-On, Hop-Off buses, offering 2 different loops: 1] CITY TOUR around the city of Miami and down to the Biltmore Hotel area in Coral Gables . This is on a single decker 2] MIAMI BEACH around Miami s world-renowned South Beach along the ocean and Deco drive area. The Gray line Bus HQ where tours start is on Bayside in downtown Miami , but you can hop on at various points on the route and pay on the bus too. TICKET COST and ALL INFO www.bigbustours.com or call tollfree 1-800-336-8233 in Florida to book. Update: There are now several different companies offering tours—most start from Bayside downtown. I have tried them. ——PK publisher.
► NEW TOURS to explore Miami Beach and Miami have been established. By bike, on foot, via bus with audio commentary. Visit www.discoverymiamibeach.com for all your choices.
► HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: British people love gardening and flowers. Take a tour down to the Redlands agricultural area about one hour's drive south of Miami, in a suburb called Homestead. I have done this tour and it's wonderful. Orchid farms, tropical blooms, tropical eatables, local wineries, a quaint English tearoom and numerous tropical nature experiences you will enjoy. Look at the website www.theredland.org first. FOR TOURS call  247-5172 Redland Pioneer Tours. Or ask your hotel concierge how to drive down to Homestead.
► You will see a free newspaper in street corner boxes, called The New Times. www.newtimesmiami.com This is the alternative local weekly which lists all the nightclubs, strip clubs, just-opened restaurants in all districts of Miami, all bars, party places, live music venues and ongoing local events which appeal to younger British tourists. Pick one up–very useful source.
MIAMI'S MUST-VISIT DISTRICTS for restaurants and bars: Go into the Design District, Mid-town, Mary Brickell Village and downtown Miami.

INTRODUCTION: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic resection for gastric stromal tumors with systematic review and meta-analysis.
METHODS AND PROCEDURES: The literature database before September, 2013 was extensively searched to retrieve the comparative studies of laparoscopic (LR) and open resection(OR) for gastric stromal tumors with a relevance of study goal. The inclusion and exclusion criteria were formulated. After a quality evaluation, the data were extracted.The Cochrane collaboration RevMan5.1 version software was used for meta-analysis.
RESULTS: There are thirteen studies meeting the inclusion criteria for meta-analysis. The total sample size of these studies was 792 cases. The operation time was similar between the two groups [weighted mean difference (WMD)= -7.57min, 95% confidence interval(CI): -32.86 ~ 17.73, P=0.56)]. Compared to OR, however, LR experience less blood loss (WMD = -48.88 ml, 95% CI: -72.90 ~ -24.85, P<0.001), earlier time to ?atus (WMD = -1.60 d, 95% CI: -2.03 ~ -1.17, P<0.001) and oral diet (WMD = -1.68 d, 95% CI: -2.33 ~ -1.03, P<0.001), shorter hospital stay (WMD = -3.55 d, 95% CI: -4.56 ~ -2.53, P<0.001) and decrease in overall complications [relative risk(RR)= 0.57, 95% CI: 0.33 ~ 0.97, P=0.04)]. In addition, the long-term follow-up result shows that there is no significant difference in the two groups of patients.
CONCLUSIONS: laparoscopic resection for gastrointestinal stromal tumors of the stomach is a safe and feasible procedure with less blood loss, less overall complications and quick recovery. The long-term survival situation of gastric stromal tumor patients mainly depends on the tumor itself risk, and laparoscopic surgery will not increase the risk of tumor relapse and metastasis.

President Obama continues to hold a substantial advantage over congressional Republicans in public regard. Obama's job approval is back in positive territory at 51%, after slipping to 47% in March. By comparison, just 22% approve of the job Republican leaders in Congress are doing, among the lowest approval rating for congressional leaders from either party in 20 years.
Furthermore, a record-high 80% say Obama and Republican leaders are not working together to address important issues facing the country, and by nearly two-to-one (42%-22%) more blame Republican leaders than Obama for the gridlock.
Despite GOP leaders' poor job ratings, the Republican Party runs about even with the Democrats on leading issues such as the economy, immigration and gun control. Overall, 42% say the Republican Party could do the better job dealing with the economy, while 38% say the Democratic Party. The public is similarly divided over which party could better handle gun control policy and immigration policy.
The latest national survey by the Pew Research Center, conducted May 1-5 among 1,504 adults, finds that Republicans have particularly low regard for their party's congressional leaders. Just 42% approve of the job GOP leaders in Congress are doing, while 51% disapprove. This is far below the job ratings that Democrats give their party's leaders (60% approve, 32% disapprove).
Despite their frustration with the party's leadership, Republicans overwhelmingly say the GOP could do a better job than the Democratic Party when it comes to issues like the economy, immigration and gun control. By comparison, fewer Democrats side with their party on the economy and gun control, which is one reason why Republicans run even with the Democrats overall. On each of these three issues, independents are split as to whether the Republican Party or the Democratic Party could do better.
As Obama works toward advancing his second-term agenda, the public is divided over whether he is someone who is able to get things done (49%) or not (46%). Views of Obama's effectiveness have declined since shortly after his re-election, when more saw him as effective (57%) than did not (37%).
While the public offers mixed views of Obama's effectiveness in a gridlocked political environment, most say he fights hard to get his policies passed (67%) and 76% describe him as someone who stands up for what he believes in. Both impressions hold with majorities of Republicans, Democrats and independents. Views of his leadership and effectiveness, by contrast, are highly polarized.
At 51%, Barack Obama's overall job approval rating has edged back up from a recent low of 47% in mid-March. But it still trails his 55% approval rating in early December, a month after his re-election victory.
Ratings of Republican leaders in Congress remain near all-time lows. By about three-to-one, more disapprove (68%) than approve (22%) of the job GOP leaders in Congress are doing. Republican leaders' job approval has changed little since December of last year (25%).
Democratic leaders are viewed only somewhat more positively. Overall, 32% approve of the job Democratic leaders in Congress are doing, while 59% disapprove. In December, 40% approved of the job performance of Democratic leaders.
Republicans express mixed views of the job performance of their party's congressional leaders: 42% approve, while 51% disapprove. By contrast, almost twice as many Democrats approve as disapprove of the job of Democratic congressional leaders (60% vs. 32%).
Independents continue to take a dim view of the job performance of both parties' congressional leaders: Just 23% approve of Democratic leaders' job performance while 18% give GOP leaders a positive job rating.
The Republican Party runs about even with the Democratic Party on three key issues: the economy, immigration and gun control. In recent years, neither political party has held a decisive advantage on these issues. The Democratic Party led on the economy through much of George W. Bush's second term and Obama's first year in office. But since 2010, about as many have favored the GOP as the Democrats.
Similarly, neither party has had a consistent advantage on dealing with immigration. The current survey finds opinion split evenly; Democrats held a slim advantage in late 2012, while Republicans held a slight edge in 2011.
And while the gun debate has drawn significant public attention over the past four months (see: Gun Debate Draws More Interest than Immigration Policy Debate, released April 8, 2013), it has not resulted in an advantage for either political party. In the immediate wake of the shootings in Newtown, Conn., Americans were divided over which party could better address gun control, and that divide persists today.
Independents are split over which party can do the better job on key issues. Overall, 38% of independents say the Republican Party could do the better job on the economy while nearly as many (35%) say the Democratic Party. Similarly, independents are divided over who can better address immigration (36% say each party) and gun control (41% Republican Party, 35% Democratic Party). On all three issues, about a quarter of independents volunteer no preference between the two parties.
Eight-in-ten Republicans (79%) say the GOP could do the better job dealing with the economy, while just 9% say the Democratic Party. Fewer Democrats (65%) say their party could do better on the economy, while 22% say the GOP could do better.
Similarly, while 76% of Republicans say the Republican Party better reflects their views on gun control, 66% of Democrats choose the Democratic Party. On dealing with immigration, 69% of Republicans prefer the GOP while about as many Democrats (63%) say the Democratic Party could do better.
The percentage saying that Obama and Republican leaders are not working together has risen steadily during Obama's presidency. Currently, 80% say the two sides are not working together, up from 65% in February 2011 (shortly after Republicans won control of the House) and just 45% in early 2009.
By nearly two-to-one, those who see a lack of cooperation are more likely to blame Republican leaders in Congress (42%) than Obama (22%) for the gridlock. The percentage blaming Republicans is up 11 points since February 2011, while the percentage blaming Obama is little changed over that time period.
Republicans and Democrats are about equally likely to say that GOP leaders and Obama are not cooperating, but Republicans are more likely to say their own party is at least partly to blame for gridlock than are Democrats.
Overall, 53% of Republicans blame Obama for the lack of cooperation in Washington. However, 28% say either that GOP leaders (12%) or both Republican leaders and Obama (17%) are to blame for not working together on important issues.
Democrats are less likely to see any blame on their side of the aisle. Seven-in-ten (70%) blame GOP leaders for the gridlock in Washington, while just 7% say either that Obama is most to blame (4%) or volunteer that both parties are to blame (3%).
Independents are much more likely to say that Republican leaders are to blame for the lack of cooperation in Washington (39%) than Obama (20%); 17% volunteer that both are to blame.
Following the failure of gun control legislation backed by the Obama administration, most continue to say that Obama stands up for what he believes in (76%) and that he fights hard to get his policies passed (67%). Most also say that Obama is a strong leader (56%); 40% say he is not a strong leader.
However, the percentage saying that Obama is able to get things done has edged down since shortly after Obama's second inauguration. In the current survey, about as many say Obama is able to get things done (49%) as not able to get things done (46%). In January, Obama was viewed as able to get things done by a 57%-37% margin.
Majorities of Republicans, Democrats and independents agree that Obama stands up for what he believes in and fights hard to get his policies passed. There is far less partisan agreement over Obama's leadership ability and effectiveness.
Just 18% of Republicans view Obama as a strong leader and an identical percentage say he is able to get things done. Fully 86% of Democrats say Obama is a strong leader and 74% say he is able to get things done.
By a 56%-41% margin, more independents say Obama is a strong leader than not. However, independents are divided over whether Obama is able to get things done (46%) or not (49%).
Impressions of Obama's leadership and effectiveness are similar to those of George W. Bush at comparable points in their presidencies.
Currently, 56% say Obama is a strong leader, while 41% say he is not a strong leader. Public views of Bush's leadership were nearly the same in July 2005, in the first year of his second term (55% strong leader, 41% not).
Bush also got about the same rating for his ability to get things done as Obama does today (50% vs. 49% for Obama). Bill Clinton received more positive ratings for effectiveness than either Obama or Bush in the first year of his second term; in August 1997, 64% said Clinton was able to get things done.
Overall, 51% approve of the job Obama is doing as president, while 43% disapprove. Obama's job ratings have ticked up since March (47% approve, 46% disapprove), but remain less positive than they were in December, immediately following his re-election (55% approve, 39% disapprove).
Among independents, 48% approve of the job Obama is doing while 45% disapprove. Democrats overwhelmingly approve of Obama's job performance (85% approve vs. 9% disapprove), while Republicans disapprove by a similar margin (85% disapprove vs. 12% approve).

Alan Cantor, MD, PhD
Alan Cantor's laboratory is focused on further elucidating the transcriptional mechanisms that regulate normal hematopoiesis and how they may be perturbed in certain inherited platelet disorders and hematologic malignancies. They are also interested in understanding the mechanisms that regulate human developmental globin gene switching, and applying this to the treatment of beta-hemoglobinopathies such as sickle cell anemia and beta-thalassemia. Cantor and colleagues are specifically interested in the role of GATA, FOG, RUNX and ETS family transcription factors.
The Cantor laboratory is currently taking a number of approaches to these studies. This includes: (1) proteomic techniques to isolate and characterize multiprotein complexes involving these factors; (2) chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to high throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) to identify sites occupied by these transcription factors across the genome; (3) gene targeting in mice; (4) ShRNA-mediated gene knock down experiments in primary human CD34+-derived cells; and (5) human genetic analysis of families with inherited thromboctyopenias and predisposition to leukemia.

Q: Why does this production code work: `base64.b64decode(api_token.encode("utf-8)).decode("utf-8")`? Today at work, I saw the following line of code:
decoded_token = base64.b64decode(api_token.encode("utf-8")).decode("utf-8")
It is part of an AirFlow ETL script and decoded_token is used as a Bearer Token in an API request. This code is executed on a server that uses Python 2.7 and my coworker told my that this code runs daily, successfully.
Yet, from my understanding, the code first tries to turn api_token into bytes (.encode), then turn the bytes into a string (base64.b64decode) and finally turn the string again into a string (.decode). I would think that this always leads to an error.
import base64
api_token = "random-string"
decoded_token = base64.b64decode(api_token.encode("utf-8")).decode("utf-8")

Running the code locally gives me:
Error: UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xad in position 0: invalid start byte
What input/type would api_token need to be in order for this line not to throw an error? Is that even possible or must there be something else at play?
Edit: As mentioned by Klaus D., apparently, in Python 2 both encode and decode consumed and returned a string. Yet, running the code above in Python 2.7 gives me the same error and I have yet to find an input for api_token that does not throw an error.

A: The issue is likely just that your test input string is not a base64-encoded string, while in production, whatever input already is!
Python 2.7.18 (default, Jan  4 2022, 17:47:56)
...
>>> import base64
>>> api_token = "random-string"
>>> base64.b64decode(api_token)
'\xad\xa9\xdd\xa2k-\xae)\xe0'
>>> base64.b64decode(api_token).decode("utf-8")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
    return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xad in position 0: invalid start byte

encoding the string as base64, you also don't need to decode it as "utf-8" afterwards, though you may if you expect unicode characters
>>> api_token = base64.b64encode(api_token)
>>> api_token
'cmFuZG9tLXN0cmluZw=='
>>> base64.b64decode(api_token)
'random-string'
>>> base64.b64decode(api_token).decode("utf-8")
u'random-string'

Example with non-ascii characters
>>> base64.b64decode(base64.b64encode("random string后缀"))
'random string\xe5\x90\x8e\xe7\xbc\x80'
>>> base64.b64decode(base64.b64encode("random string后缀")).decode("utf-8")
u'random string\u540e\u7f00'
>>> sys.stdout.write(base64.b64decode(base64.b64encode("random string后缀")) + "\n")
random string后缀

Note that in Python 2.7, bytes is just an alias for str, and a special unicode was added to support unicode!
>>> bytes is str
True
>>> bytes is unicode
False
>>> str("foo")
'foo'
>>> unicode("foo")
u'foo'

Health secretary Matt Hancock spends the night at Derriford Hospital
He's praised the staff for their 'warmth and kindness'

The Secretary of State for Health Matt Hancock spent a night shift at Derriford Hospital to get first-hand experience of front line services in the NHS.
Mr Hancock met staff who told him about their work during the visit on Tuesday night to the hospital, run by University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust.
He was joined by Plymouth Moor View MP Johnny Mercer on the visit, which included joining an ambulance crew.
Mr Hancock said on the social network Twitter: "Enjoying the night shift with the wonderful dedicated team at PHNT_NHS with JohnnyMercerUK - learning so much from everyone working on the front line."

Mr Mercer said on Twitter: " Best part of last night was the warmth and kindness from all the staff PHNT_NHS
"Thank you so much to all who took the time to tell us about their roles, hopes and fears for the NHS."
He described the hospital as "brilliant" in another tweet and added: "Incredible care, incredible hospital."
The trust's head of communications Amanda Nash said: "He wanted to come and see our staff and see the challenges.
"One of the issues we talked extensively about all night is our workforce, and particularly things that might be done nationally."
Mr Hancock spent time talking to medical staff and was shown the system which monitors the flow of patients through the hospital system.
One of the subjects Mr Hancock was interested in was the trust's nursing associate apprenticeships scheme.
News of the visit was given to members of the city council's health committee.

Ornamental aluminum pool fences are quickly becoming one of the most popular options in Gainesville, VA. These fences are the only type of fence that requires absolutely no maintenance. They are extremely durable and last for many years. Because of their darker color, they are also relatively inconspicuous which can be a useful thing to consider around your pool. With an aluminum ornamental pool fence, your Gainesville, VA pool will both be protected from outside elements as well as having an added feeling of grandeur.
Ornamental aluminum pool fences are made by coating a section of aluminum with a special powder. This coating protects the fence from elements so that the aluminum can last a long time. Because it is just a coating and not a full iron fence, the sections are much lighter and can be easily installed in any location. The ease of installation and lack of necessary maintenance makes these a big favorite for many Gainesville, VA residents. We have installed many aluminum ornamental pool fences in the area now and we know that you will not be let down by one of these fences. They truly are a great type of fence.
If you would like more information on ornamental aluminum pool fences in Gainesville, VA, or even just any different type of fence, please give us a call. We have been installing pool fences in Gainesville, VA for many years and we know exactly what type is best for which situation. No matter where you live or what you are looking for, there is a fence to match your individual needs. If you call us, we can send one of our crew members out to your location and they will have a look at your property. Then they can tell you about different possibilities for pool fences to protect your pool. These fences are the perfect option for locations with a view that you want to take full advantage of.


Ethics and integrity are important! A failure in those areas can destroy a reputation, neutralize effectiveness, and damage the lives of a host of other people!
"Simplicity"… As a servant of the Lord, not seeking an opulent lifestyle, the trappings of wealth or the standard of living of the "rich and famous" – rather identifying with the common person.
"Godly sincerity" – No mask, no costume, but an unvarnished integrity! "What you see is what you get" … and not simply because it is a personal value – but because it mirrors and expresses the truthful character of God!
"By the grace of God"… Seeking Divine favor and God's approval alone. Expecting Him to bless and benefit a righteous, faith-filled, God-trusting lifestyle.
Oh, I want to live that way, don't you?


In a food processor, fitted with an S-blade, combine 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, ground flaxseed, cinnamon and sea salt for about 1-2 minutes until fine. Add dates and maple syrup, and blend again until a thick paste forms. Mixture will be sticky and dense.
Transfer to a bowl and using your hands, mix in extra 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds and raisins. Using your hands, roll small amounts of mixture between your palms to form 1-inch balls. Rolls ball in shredded coconut to coat (if using).
Place in a container with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate or freeze. Serve chilled or frozen.

Q: Make div appear in current user screen I have a "mini-slider" which works fine. I'd like to let users click on any image and make a div tag which holds another slider appear ( it occupies almost the whole screen ). I have already tried to put it with display: none and change to block when clicking any image, but I have these problems:

*

*I don't know how to position it so that it appears in the center of the user's current screen

*I don't know how to use z-index so that it appears over all the other elements
Any idea would be great, thanks!

A: What you are searching for is probably very close to this  https://www.lokeshdhakar.com/projects/lightbox2/
The Light box idea is simply to add a layer above your current layer of code , kinda like a pop up , hope this helps !

A: Based on what I understood this is what you need Image slider lightbox

Personal History Everything about Saren screams Vulcan to Federation citizens, including his alia Arev, which means desert wind in the Vulcan tongue, but looks can be deceiving...
Saren was born in 2320 on the Romulus home-world. His father was a scientist and his mother an engineer, so he gained heavy interest in both areas as he grew up. When he was thirty, as all Romulans were required to, he joined the Romulan military. There he trained for ten years in all aspects of military culture and afterwards served for ten years aboard the warbird IRW T'dir as an engineer. He then spent another ten years as a science officer on the ship. As he was an average officer and with no military ambitions, he knew he would never rise far in the ranks of the Imperial Navy, so he retired from the military to go work as a research scientist at a prestigious school on Romulus.
It was at the school when the first signs of his elemental nature started to show. He would have various bizarre, but lucid dreams. Occasionally equipment would fail around him, sometimes in spectacular shows of sparks. Other times he might have little flashes of 'insight' into a situation or know vehemently when someone was lying.
He often went to the temple of the elements to try and make sense of all the strange feelings and dreams he was having. A priest took interest in him and asked him to join, even just as a basic acolyte so he could continue his science studies.
Saren didn't know it, but his latest 'elemental experience' which had brought down a computer system that the Tal'Shiar has placed a trace program in, attracted the attention of the local agent, who started watching him closely.
At the summer festival of the fire elements, a senior priest who lived on another continent, came to see the festival. When she looked in Saren's eyes, she knew he was much more than he seemed, he was an elemental, although an unwitting one. Normally there would be signs when an elemental was born, but it seemed that the signs around him had been missed.
She brought him to the temple after the festival and had him tested. It seemed the signs were missed was because he was an elemental of the Archelement. These elementals often arrived without 'fan-fare'.
That evening, the Tal'Shiar decided that they would extract Saren and see if he posed a threat to the Empire and if not, see if he could be used as a weapon. So, while he was walking home pondering what the priestess had said, he was kidnapped and brought to a Tal'Shiar facility.
For the next two months, Saren was put through all sorts of interrogations, tests, and experiments. Some triggered responses of various natures, others didn't. One Romulan guard did get hurt once when a computer panel exploded, but that was the extent of the progress of weaponizing Saren. The Tal'Shiar were patient though.
What wasn't patient was the Hobus star. Saren was being transferred to a different facility when the star exploded. Even though Saren was in a transport with no windows, he could see the blast coming as Romulus started to disintegrate. He closed his eyes, expecting to become one with the universe.
What happened to Saren next he can not put into words. He was in some dimensional pocket it seemed, it was as if he were going through a speed course of what he was becoming, but with no true measure as to whether or not he understood it. Then he stepped out of the dimensional pocket.
He wound up naked on the deck of the USS Landry with a couple of Starfleet Officers pointing weapons at him. They did not seem to be the type of weapons he was used to seeing from his military training. He would later be surprised when it was revealed to him that he was one hundred and twenty-six years in the past.
Knowing he was safer where he was, Saren made a deal with Starfleet Intelligence and Federation officials, if he gave them certain information, he could remain in the Federation. With cosmetic surgery, he was allowed to attend Academy for a year and then enter Starfleet as a science officer on the Landry, as the Captain was already aware of the situation.
He spent the next two years as a scientist and even got promoted for his hard work and made the Assistant Chief Science Officer. One particular project that he excelled was detecting a gravity well that formed out of the blue. The gravity well threatened a nearby colony, but the science team, with the early detection was able to disrupt it.
When the Legacy had the opening for Chief Science Officer, he applied.

Q: Solve this First Order Non-Linear Differential Equation: $y'+y^2=\cos{2x} $ Trying to solve this seemingly simple first order non-linear differential equation:
$$y'+y^2=\cos{2x} $$
Considered separation of variables and bernoulli methods but figured it's not applicable. Please I need a hint.

A: $$y'+y^2=\cos(2x)$$
Change of function : $y=\frac{Y'}{Y} \quad\to\quad y'=\frac{Y''}{Y}-\frac{Y'^2}{Y^2}$
$$\frac{Y''}{Y}=\cos(2x)$$
The general solution involves the Mathieu functions :
$$Y=c_1\text{MathieuC}(0,\frac{1}{2},x)+c_2\text{MatieuS}(0,\frac{1}{2},x)$$
$$y(x)=\frac{c_1 \frac{d}{dx} \text{MatieuC}(0,\frac{1}{2},x)+c_2\frac{d}{dx}\text{MatieuS}(0,\frac{1}{2},x)}{c_1\text{MatieuC}(0,\frac{1}{2},x)+c_2\text{MatieuS}(0,\frac{1}{2},x)}$$


He worked in IT software marketing and development for several successful Estonian companies, developing apps and systems including Zimplit. On the side, he was an owner and business partner in the hotel industry, with a hotel in Sagadi, one of Estonia's biggest manor houses.
Seeds of change were planted in 2005, after he read a report on NASA's Mars Mission describing aeroponics, technology for growing plants in space. Although seeds wouldn't sprout for years, the idea stayed firmly planted. In 2009, a research paper containing statistics on global houseplant waste due to uninformed maintenance or neglect – a staggering 20 billion euros worth – caught his eye. He realised, "there are millions of people who can't grow plants," and began researching aeroponics. The method's principles use air and mist for growing, no soil necessary. It was a start, if not the final solution. As a hobby, he tinkered with prototypes based on NASA open images and charts. Then, during Estonia's cold winter, tomatoes began growing in his home.
In December 2009, he entered Brain Hunt, Estonia's biggest entrepreneurial business plan competition and TV show. Mattias recalls thousands of ideas submitted to the incubator programme; most were "really bad. I usually don't criticise if I don't have something better to propose." Having something, he went for it, pitching his idea of a flowerpot that could grow a plant without watering and fertilising. The jury chose him.
Six months later, he won the competition and a prize of 250.000 Estonian crowns. Years down the road, he read the jury's comments: They had thought his idea "stupid" and "too futuristic", selecting it to make the show "funnier".
Lepp: 'in the future fresh food will grow in your kitchen.' Photo credit: Laura KallasveeOriginally seeking to use NASA-inspired aeroponics, it simply cost too much. They began adapting and developing, experimenting with around 200 prototypes. The emerging science of biomimicry, emulating models and processes from nature, was the next inspiration. "It's still a difficult field for me," adding that universities around the world aid in research and development.
The biggest challenges were developing artificial soil and perfecting the software. A "bug" caused plants to mysteriously die at three months old, requiring reprogramming. "To test a plant is not like testing software," he explains. Plants need to grow for many months to understand things like moisture and pH levels, and combining growth parameters. Without enough testing time, this early bug developed. "It's a learning process. We're learning every day." Receiving positive client feedback, the team saw the Smartpot's significance – people actually came to the office, wanting to reprogramme their plants.
Smartpots are self-growing flowerpots, easily operated by even the least green-thumbed. Each starter kit contains a seed cartridge and operational unit within the pot, fitted with software, sensors and growth materials. Special soil, already sown with nutrients, means that new botanists need only add water and batteries for it to flourish. Refills contain software and supplies tailored to the plant.
How does futuristic technology affect quality? Mattias assures the plants contain a higher amount of essentials like vitamins and antioxidants, and confidently asserts that Smartpot-grown plants are healthier than their traditionally-grown contemporaries.
To kick things off, Mattias invested his own money into the venture. A month after founding, a group of angel investors put in 250.000 euros, and at the beginning of 2012, an investment company contributed 1.3 million euros. The startup then turned to Kickstarter for its next product: The Smart Herb Garden allows home growers to sprout fresh basil, thyme, lemon balm, tomatoes, and chili peppers, with strawberries coming soon.

Smartpots are battery powered, and Smart Herb Gardens plug in. Mattias says that the business model stemmed from the need for a foolproof system: built-in sensors optimised for the specific plant, plus all growing material, programmed and ready-to-go. With customers now buying refills, it's reached fruition.
Click & Grow outsources technology development, logistics and manufacturing. Core competence is kept in Tartu. Tallinn has a small office, plus a U.S. outpost in San Francisco for marketing and sales. Twelve full-time staff are employed; by the end of 2014, they're expecting to number 23. "To be honest, we try to stay as small as possible," Mattias says. "It still is like a family business." His wife continually supported him through the entrepreneurial process. They have three children: "Two growing at home plus Click & Grow," he jokes.
Regarding future growth, Mattias says, "we're moving step by step toward food manufacturing and growing plants for the pharmaceutical industry, for enzyme synthesis. Almost 25 percent of all medicines are made of plants. It's a huge market, and we have good technology for growing plants quickly. We're able to speed up the growth, or grow only some parts of the plants, such as only the fruits, flowers or leaves." In two years, they expect to be the biggest urban farming company in the world, and first to bring this technology to private homes.
Mattias believes that "in the future fresh food will grow in your kitchen." The Smart Farm is expected to be released later this year, using technology inexpensive enough that people can grow their own vegetables and herbs at home.
Ultimately, Mattias' endeavor has been fruitful, but he doesn't advise similar methods: "I think this is one of the worst things, to start a company alone. I don't recommend it to anybody." He recalls working around 20 hours a day, every day in the early stages. Admitting that his own gardening knowledge fell short for the task at hand, he laughs that the first team member he hired was a "chief gardening officer".

We are very excited to be launching this new product...selfie boards. In the age of selfies, Talking Horse Design is taking this to a new level offering you the opportunity to enhance the selfie experience with a personalised board capturing special memories for any occasion. Primarily for weddings but they can also be used for special birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, corporate events, fundraising events etc.
We are currently offerings two different types of selfie board. The first one is our standard selfie board which comes in THREE different sizes, A2 (420mm x 594mm), A1 (594mm x 841mm) and A0 (841mm x 1188mm). Our premium selfie board (A1 in size) is in the style of a picture frame which is then die cut to give you that extra touch of class to your pictures.
As with some of our boards, the details can be personalised for your event and we can even put the text in a specific font if requested to match your style or corporate font (fonts may be requested should we not have access to them).
We now also have three new selfie boards for all you facebook, twitter and instagram fans. With these you can personalise almost the entire board. For the facebook selfie board you can edit: the search bar, have your own profile picture, name, location, number of reactions and number of comments. The Twitter board, name, username, time, tweet, hashtag, number of replies/retweets and times it has been favourited can be added. And on the Instagram selfie board you can personalise: header, name, location, hashtag and likes.
All of our selfie boards are produced to our high standard and printed direct onto the 5mm foam board rather than printed onto a paper and then mounted onto the board.
We can of course design a specific board for you...contact us with your requirements and we'll be happy to help you out.
Don't forget that all our orders are delivered free of charge!
Prices are based on one of our standard templates.


To facilitate data analysis to a range of end users (including researchers, policy-level users, other biodiversity stakeholders), European Biodiversity Portal provides an easy access to insights in biodiversity trends and modelling, through visualisation modules and infographics.
Analysis section is envisaged as a repository of analysis tools of interest for the final users. Visualisation of the status and trends of EBV candidates such as "Species distribution" and "Species abundance" are facilitated using the Spatial Dataset Browser and the Species Population Trend Browser.
Other analytical interfaces include the Species richness and the Biodiversity Indicator Analytics Dashboard. Via the virtual laboratory, eLab, researchers can work on the same project, share documents and use the same web interface, while configuring the deployment of tools in such a way that privacy is ensured. RStudio and other analytical tools can be added and configured using technologies such as Openshift and Docker.
This browser helps user to identify and access datasets of interest when generating Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) for species distribution.More about EBVs can be found on GEO BON portal. A user can zoom in and out and obtain datasets per polygon. The year range can be changed too. The browser utilises the data from GBIF repository.
This tool is intended to help users determine if GBIF mediated data is likely to be suitable for deriving species population trends. The tool allows a user to navigate to a location and timespan of interest, and then it provides an analysis showing if the population for the species is in decline or increase. This analysis involves normalizing the data for the species against all data collected for the group (e.g. Lepidoptera). By normalizing against the group, the analysis attempts to compensate for biases in sampling effort. In many cases this will work well, but in other cases this may provide misleading insights – however, by providing a transparent view of the process, the user can judge if there appears to be sufficient data to investigate further.
Both visualisations (Spatial Dataset Browser and the Species Population Trend Browser) support the identification of EBVs and can improve forecasting and the development of early warning systems, aiding policy makers to develop evidence-based conservation strategies, while providing clear visualisation of priority issues to mobilise public support for their implementation.
The tool utilises GBIF data in order to compute a spatial and temporal distribution of higher taxa. A user inputs higer taxon, spatial extent and resolution, temporal extent and resolution. Final result is a map showing layers of grids divided into cells of user-specified size where each cell contains information about number of records in the area bound by the cell in specific year. The tool is usable for birds, mammals, frogs, bony fish, beetles, butterflies and moths, mushrooms, and vascular plants.
Several analytical use cases are also available in this section, e.g. Loxodonta Africana dashboard, Lepidoptera dashboards.
eLab is a virtual working environment that offer services to share and collaborate in teams, but also specific tools (SaaS - Software as a Service) deployed in the Doñana Biological Station hybrid cloud. Particular tools could be added to the eLabs engine (tools using "docker", a runtime for executing applications almost like virtual machines). Other tools can be configured, sharing its definition among eLabs, but deploying an instance per eLab (to ensure data privacy among labs).
The list of tools encompasses GeoNetwork, RStudio, and Juypter R, Python and Matlab notebooks, the latter ones useful to run scripts in a server from a web interface. The RStudio instance deployed is part of the Mirroreum EU BON product, and will act as showcase of R scripts and analyses generated under the EU BON umbrella. Several R packages, scripts and demos are already available at the Mirroreum RStudio instance.
The user can access and use after registering at the site.

1 Environment Science The Americas
Why Weren't New World Rabbits Domesticated?
July 22, 2021 July 22, 2021 Eurasia Review 0 Comments
Domesticated rabbits come in all sizes and colors, including tiny Netherland Dwarfs, floppy-eared French lops, Flemish Giants, and fluffy Angoras.
These breeds belong to Europe's only rabbit species, originally limited to the Iberian Peninsula and Southern France and used for meat and fur since the last Ice Age, culminating in domestication about 1,500 years ago.
The Americas, on the other hand, have many rabbit species with ranges throughout both continents. The archaeological record shows rabbits were used as extensively in the Americas as they were on the Iberian Peninsula, with clear archaeological evidence that rabbits were being deliberately raised. Why, then, were rabbits domesticated in Europe and not the Americas?
Recent work by archaeologists Andrew Somerville of Iowa State University and UC Riverside's Nawa Sugiyama found a simple answer: European rabbits live readily in large social groups while American cottontail rabbits do not. The less social nature of American cottontails combined with greater species diversity created a situation where rabbit husbandry did not lead to domestication.
Sugiyama looked to Teotihuacan, a major city in Mexico about 2,000 years ago, where cottontail rabbits comprised 23% of the animal remains during the Classic period. This was more than any other animal used for meat, including wild deer, as well as domesticated turkeys and dogs. The proportion of rabbit bones increased toward the city center, suggesting they were probably being raised, not hunted.
Rabbits were buried at the Sun and Moon Pyramids and are found in the stomach contents of sacrificial carnivores, such as eagles and pumas. Rabbit bones found in the carnivore stomachs contain a type of carbon that indicates a diet unusually rich in corn or cactus, suggesting human-raised rabbits had, in turn, been fed to the carnivores.
"The rabbits were probably fed corn, but the carbon isotopes don't distinguish between corn and cactus, so we can't say for certain," Sugiyama said.
Moreover, 46% of the animal bones excavated in one apartment compound were from rabbits that had been fed a similar diet of agricultural crops, and the amount of phosphate in the floor of one room indicates a location where rabbits urinated and were probably housed. A stone statue of a rabbit was also found in the complex's central plaza, reinforcing the importance of rabbit husbandry to the residents.
A thousand years later, the 16th century Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortez described the sale of rabbits at the Aztec marketplace of Tlateloco. Over at least a millennia of husbandry and extensive use for food, fur, and ritual, however, the rabbits of Mexico did not become domesticated — a mutualistic, multigenerational relationship characterized by human-controlled reproduction.
To understand why, Somerville compared the behavioral ecology of European rabbits and American cottontails against criteria that "prime" or preadapt animals for domestication. Animals that have been domesticated usually live in groups with resident males. They also have young that imprint easily and require parental care, a promiscuous mating system, tolerance for a wide variety of environments, and low reactivity to humans.
European and American rabbits were similar across all criteria except social behavior. European rabbits live in underground family burrows, called warrens, of up to 20 individuals that include males, who defend their breeding territory from other males. Warrens made it easy for people to locate and manage wild rabbit populations, then mimic those conditions in captivity, where rabbits readily reproduced.
American cottontails, on the other hand, are solitary, live entirely above ground, and tend to fight in enclosures together. Males do not defend a breeding territory and pursue more opportunistic mating strategies.
Somerville and Sugiyama conclude that their solitary nature, tendency to fight in enclosures, dispersed territories, and less predictable mating systems made it possible to raise rabbits without forming the kind of mutual relationship that would eventually give humans enough control over a species to direct its evolution. Greater species diversity also made it less likely that any one of them would become domesticated.

year for year the same! There are so many options makin money with this mode. We need some cool fresh air. Cmon guys it cannot be so difficult to bring something new!? This sport is a teamplay and it's the purest thing ever. Every player should concentrate on his own player to grow and getting stronger. And raise with the team. Not to buy packs over packs and trying to get the best squad. Man you earned money every year and now that you are fed up you should do something for the community not for your wallets!!
Wont happen. Im still convinced they are about to take the mode out in a year or 2 to focus on other modes.
They prolly wont, that'll make em lose alot of buyers. They'll just keep it the same for maybe another 10 years.
Well easiest way to get their attention is to not buy the game and play the old ones (as they're the same). If I could I would refund the game but unfortunately it's too late for that.


A group of B vitamins -- folic acid, vitamin B12, and vitamin B6 -- may have a role in heart health. In a complex series of reactions, these vitamins are responsible for regulating the blood levels of an amino acid called homocysteine. An elevated blood level of homocysteine is one of the risk factors for heart disease.
Evidence suggests, although it's not proven, that homocysteine oxidizes LDL, thereby promoting atherosclerosis. Unfortunately, two large clinical trials of men and women with heart disease have not shown any benefit of folate, B12, and B6 supplements in lowering homocysteine, indicating that homocysteine may be a marker of coronary heart disease, not a target of treatment.
Green leafy vegetables, such as spinach and kale, as well as brussell sprouts, asparagus, beans, orange juice, and fortified cereals are good sources of folate. Since 1998, the United States government has required that folic acid be added to refined grain products, such as white bread, pasta, and rice. However, these refined grains should not be substituted for whole grains in the diet.
Vitamin B12 can be found in lean red meat, fish, shellfish, and fortified cereals. Chicken, fish, whole-wheat bread, beans, and fortified cereals contain vitamin B6.
Niacin is another B vitamin. In large doses, nicotinic acid, a form of niacin, lowers total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglyceride levels and raises HDL levels.
Evidence is also inconclusive on the role that carotenoids, which provide Vitamin A, play in cholesterol. Learn about carotenoids on the next page.

Q: How Hooke's Law and motion equation are related? $$F(x)= -kx = ma(x) $$ Elastic force equation
I solve this differential equation to find the equation of motion:
$$ -kx =m\frac{d^2x}{dt^2} $$
$$ x'' +\frac{k}{m}x=0 $$
$λ^2 = -\frac{k}{m} $
$ λ = \pm i\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$
$ x(t) = c_1\cos(t\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}) + c_2\sin(t\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}) $ equation of motion
$ k $ is $\rm[M][T]^{-2} $ so I can write $ ω =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$ and call it angular frequency $[T]^{-1} $
$ x(t) = c_1\cos(tω) + c_2\sin(tω) $
$c_1$ and $c_2$ are $[\rm L]^{1}$, but what they represent?, the equation should depend only from $x_0$ or I am wrong?
Then I can assume:
$c_1 = A\sin(φ)$
$c_2 = A\cos(φ)$
So using trigonometric addition formulas I can simplify the motion equation to:
$x(t) = A\sin(tω+φ)$ That is a Simple harmonic motion
A is $[\rm L]^1$, and I suppose $ A = x_0 $, it's correct, or I am wrong?
$ φ $ should be the phase, but I am not able to understand how it's related to force equation, how can I determine $φ$? What is physical meaning of $φ$?

A: As you stated correctly, the two equations $$x(t)=c_1 \cos(t\omega)+c_2 \sin(t\omega)$$ and $$x(t)=Asin(t\omega + \phi)$$ are equivalent and both are the general solution for the problem. In order to get from the general solution to a particular solution, you need to impose boundary conditions,e.g.
\begin{align}
x_0 = x(t=0s) = 1 cm\\
v_0 = v(t=0s) = 0 m/s
\end{align}
Both general solution will yield the same answer if they are subjected to the same boundary conditions.
Coming back to your original questions:

*

*In the first general solution, the coeffs. $c_1$ and $c_2$ are integration constants, which are needed in order to fulfill the boundary conditions. They do not really have any physical meaning. However, if you impose the two boundary conditions stated above, the coeff. $c_1$ becomes $x_0$ and $c_2$ becomes $v_0/\omega$.

*In the second general solution, the coeffs. $A$ and $\phi$ are the amplitude and phase of the oscillation. If we take the boundary conditions stated above, we obtain $A=x_0$ and $\phi = 0$. However, nothing prevents us from taking $v_0 \ne 0m/s$. In that case $A \ne x_0 = x(t=0s)$ and $\phi \ne 0$.

A:
c1 and c2 are [L]1, but what they represent?

Try writing the general solution like this:
$$x(t) = x(0) \cos(\omega t) + \frac{\dot x(0)}{\omega} \sin(\omega t)$$
Let's see if that works for $t = 0$:
$$x(0) = x(0) \cos(0) + \frac{\dot x(0)}{\omega} \sin(0) = x(0)$$
Check.
Now, take the time derivative and evaluate at $t = 0$:
$$\dot x(0) = -\omega x(0) \sin(0) + \omega \frac{\dot x(0)}{\omega} \cos(0) = \dot x(0)$$
Check.

A: Your assumption with $c_1$ and $c_2$ is correct, and, stated by Semoi,  $x(t)=c_1 \cos(t\omega)+c_2 \sin(t\omega)$ and $x(t)=Asin(t\omega + \phi)$ are equivalent and are acceptable general solutions to this case. $A$ is also $x_o$ in this case, yes, in that it is conventionally maximum displacement from equilibrium.
$\phi$ is simply the phase constant, which has to do with the initial conditions of the event happening. This is why you need initial conditions to find it out, but essentially, it's accounting for the fact that your pendulum, let's say, wasn't at a defined $x_o$ at time $t = 0$, so your sine curve wouldn't have to start at the $0$ point every time.
However, a better model to describe SHM if we want to consider $x(t)$ would be $x(t)=Acos(\omega t + \phi)$ rather than sine, since then the function starts at $A$, which would make sense since typically $x_0 = x = A$ if we make $t=0$ when you let the pendulum go after moving it from equilibirum. You'll notice that as Semoi said with $v_0 = 0\ m/s$ the equation reduces to that as well. However, this is just convention and you're perfectly fine using those formulae, but I recommend using cosine if you're measuring SHM in the traditional sense.


Faith Evans & Stevie J Married? – Details Here!
Yes indeed. Faith Evans and Stevie J reportedly got married in their Las Vegas hotel room Tuesday night, July 17th to be exact. Their on-again-off-again love fest evidently brought the two to a place where breaking up would be hard to do. With the two now married,perhaps their love can do nothing but grow.
After the announcement of their marriage came out yesterday, social media sleuths were hard at work seeking evidence. That led to the revelations of legal documents which appeared yesterday showing that Faith and Stevie J filed for their marriage license in Clark County.
If there were still any doubts, the pair sealed it with their lovie lovie social media posts. Check them out below.
