Welcoming Address
by the Conference Chairperson
It is a pleasure for us to welcome you to ConRad 2023, the 25th Nuclear Medical Defense Conference, from May 08th to 11th 2023 in Munich. This unique conference is hosted by the Bundeswehr Institute of Radiobiology affiliated to the University of Ulm in Munich.
ConRad 2023 will place special emphasis on two topics highlighted in separate key sessions next to in-depth views into several fields portrayed in key lectures. The first key session "Medical impacts of the use of nuclear weapons and countermeasures" will discuss the impacts after the insertion of nuclear weapons as well as the possibilities of suitable countermeasures. The session will refer to threat scenarios as they are currently brought into close proximity by international conflicts.
In the second key session "Internal radiation by radionuclides of emergencies and therapies" we would like to provide a platform for mutual exchange on previous scenarios, discuss the decisive lessons learned and reevaluate acquired knowledge on the basis of new approaches and recent scientific findings.
In the proven concept of this conference, further subjects comprise the presentation of new insights in radiation epidemiology, medicine, biology, physics and radiation protection. This event offers the particular opportunity to bring together a broad spectrum of German and international experts, civilian and military, as a forum for professional and multidisciplinary exchange of experience and expertise in this particular domain. Special attendance is attached to the fact that these aspects will be presented in a comprehensive form for a broader audience thus facilitating the idea of continuous education.
Additional information concerning virtual attendance will be provided in the further course on our conference website.
We invite you to attend this scientific, but also practice-oriented event, which offers plenty of opportunities for extensive discussions, to establish new contacts and to strengthen existing relationships after the oral presentations and during the poster sessions.
We look forward to welcome you as a participant to this further key event dealing with radiation topics affecting all of us.

Priyanka Chopra has been taken seriously in Hollywood
Priyanka's big screen debut in Hollywood in 2017 was paired with Dwayne Johnson Baywatch.
The 39-year-old actress moved to the US about seven years ago
He went to auditions and worked to get good roles in big films
"I did not carry my star I made in India," Priyanka said
Priyanka Chopra is in a giant Hollywood moment in a role for the fourth time The Matrix The film, no less – but had to work hard to get here. When the 39-year-old actress moved to the US about seven years ago, she was a big Bollywood star, but many in the West did not know her star. He went to auditions and worked to get good roles in big films. "When I went to the US and started working, it was very difficult for people to take me seriously. It was difficult to convince people that I could play the lead roles and lead roles. I did not carry my star who I created. India, I was a new actor in every room Walked in, I asked for opportunities, "Priyanka told NDTV.
Priyanka was the lead character in the breakout role Quantico It ran from 2015 to 2018. His big screen debut was in the film version paired with Twain Johnson. Baywatch In 2017. Now, after many years of work, Priyanka Chopra is a big star internationally. He has starred in major brands and major films, and has won awards at the Oscars and various global film awards. Priyanka is also a major presence at the Med Gala and other big ticket events.
All this led to this moment – Priyanka Chopra plays Sita fresh The Matrix The original cast, Keanu Reeves and Gary-Ann Moss, reprise their roles as Neo and Trinity. The Matrix RenaissanceDirected by Lana Wachowski, it will be released in India this Friday. "It takes time for people to develop confidence in you. I'm been working on it for almost seven years (in Hollywood). It's so exciting to believe in a film like this. The Matrix Renaissance, "Said Priyanka.
Although Priyanka Chopra may have been given the red pill, she feels that the opportunities for South Asian actors in the global entertainment industry are slim – she and other actors have just begun to fill. He named his co-stars Mindy Kalinga and Oscar nominee Reese Ahmed. "Some of the South Asian people like Mindy Kaling, Aziz Ansari, Hassan Minhaj and Riz Ahmed, we pushed the envelope, the door opened and we asked for a seat at the table," Priyanka told NDTV.
Their work has only just begun. Asked if the South Asians now have a seat at the table, Priyanka Chopra said, "No, we do not. We have to go a long way, but we have a foot in the door."
The Matrix Renaissance The second and third films starred Jada Pinkett Smith, who played Niobia. Revolutions And Reloaded. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II Morpheus took over from Lawrence Fisburn, who created the main character in the original trilogy; The character of Agent Smith, played by Hugo Weaving, is reprized with Jonathan Graf. Neil Patrick Harris plays Neo's therapist.
Priyanka Chopra is not fully claimed by Hollywood; He also stars in Farhan Akhtar's commercial Bollywood film Jee Le Zara With Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt. "I'm been talking about Hindi in a movie for a while, I want to do it, I want to dance, so I told Farhan that there should be dancing in the movie," he told NDTV. Jee Le Zara Will be filmed by the end of 2022.

Born in 1953 with Down Syndrome, Bruce is a sensitive artist who creates colourful and inspirational artworks.
His work is made up of a myriad of shapes and patterns, reflecting lifeforms in his own very unique and distinctive style. The process of completing each work involves a conscientious, almost ritualistic approach, where each line and shape involves a changing of pen until a brilliant feast of colour emerges.
Inspired by the artwork of primitive and indigenous cultures from an early age, he demonstrates an intuitive approach to his drawings. Various themes dominate his work – these include his love of prehistoric and primitive life forms as well as whimsical renderings of creatures of the sea and other animals. Bruce communicates his world through his dynamic and creative artworks with a vision which transcends the norm. He has created, through the symbols he draws, a naïve yet profound language of his own.


You let the dog out one last time before bed, and you hear a yelp. Somehow she's managed to cut her leg pretty deep.
Being a fan of The Survival Doctor, you know to apply pressure to stop the bleeding, but she just keeps crying. You know of a vet clinic that stays open until 11, and it's 10 right now. You tie a rag around the wound and head out the door.
After a couple of miles, you hear a bump, bump, bump. It gets louder. You pull over and dig out your flashlight from the glove compartment. The batteries are dead.
You get out and see the flat tire. And suddenly you notice it's cold outside. The wind has picked up and you didn't bring a coat. There's a lot less traffic than you had expected. Someone may stop and help, or not.
Either way, it's cold and dark, and you've just noticed you're low on gas. You think you have a spare tire but haven't checked in a while. Thankfully you have your cellphone. You dig around where you usually keep it. Now where is that phone?
Winter is around the corner. And a little preparation can make a world of difference. Right now is the perfect time to inspect tire treads and make sure batteries in all of your vehicles are in good shape (have your local repair shop check them out just in case). And before it gets too cold, make sure you have the supplies already in the car for those just-in-case, never-thought-I'd-need-it moments.
Last winter I listed some basic supplies I recommend for your car no matter where you live. OK, maybe not the coat if the temperature never gets below 60 where you are, but still, you never know.
See my original 12 recommendations for your winter car kit here.
In my previous post, I advised always taking a cellphone when you're driving, anytime, anywhere. But a cellphone without a charged battery isn't much help. Several readers who were stuck in that Atlanta ice storm last year commented that they found that out the hard way. And a business acquaintance shared her experience from coming back from a snow-skiing trip. It was dark and cold, and the roads had begun to freeze when she noticed she were very low on gas. And her cellphone? Battery depleted, with no charger. Fortunately she had enough fumes to make it to the next gas station, but just barely.
Seems pretty obvious, but make sure you have extra batteries also. And, consider storing a headlamp in the trunk, with extra batteries, so you can use both hands to change a flat or treat a medical emergency.
Have an extra change in case you get wet in the snow or rain and can't get home right away.
The ones you activate by shaking. They can be useful also in treating someone who's hypothermic by placing one under each arm and groin area.
And my Duct Tape 911 book to suggest ideas for medical uses.
A lot of people suggested this. Get the nonclumping type to pour around your tires if you're stuck in the snow.
A few suggested, from experience, that this is more useful and warmer than a blanket (also takes up more room though).
It makes a great bandage.
You can stuff them in cracks or tape them on windows. The trapped air gives a little insulation. You could also tape them over your shoes for waterproofing. Or, if someone needs medical assistance, you could cover your hands and arms with the plastic, using it as a crude barrier against bodily fluids.
And what do you think about this product* (pictured to the right)? It's a flashlight with a cellphone charger, window breaker and seat belt cutter. Seems pretty neat to me and provides one other tool some readers suggested: something to break out a car window in case you have an accident and your door won't open.
What do you think? With my former post and these new suggestions, am I leaving something out that you'd recommend for a winter car kit?
*This is an Amazon affiliate link.
You will also need water. Just make sure you leave enough room for expansion if it freezes. Also a small gas stove with fuel canister. (Amazon has them for under $6.00 or so.) Also a metal cup to heat water for a warm drink.A ground tarp,matches,fire starter,hatchet and some para cord. Glow sticks could come in handy.
Garmo. Thanks. Several of those things I have in my original recommendations.
The all in one flashlight is Ok as long as you have another light to go with it. If you use the battery to charge your phone, I takes a lot i of cranking charge the battery and you might have other things to do. Also, the all in one devices tend to be good at none.
Thanks. That's good to know.
Perhaps a better light, or an additional one, would be a headlamp. If your hands are full changing a tire at night, you will not have a hand to hold the flashlight. There are some nice 100 lumen headlamps with a red LED included. My husband loves his.
Great suggestions, Dr H. I added duct tape to my "car pack", as I call it after I got your book. I have a couple of crank flashlights and agree they are good but have limitations if you are busy (trying to stop bleeding, for example). I have a schedule on my calendar to check all the flashlight batteries I have every few months, so a great suggestion. This list goes well with the older one you had. I also use the Gyver Can you recommended some time ago. It has a bunch of stuff in that can which includes several of the things on your list. Love your blog.
Thanks, Nurse Laura. Yeah, the crank things have definite limitations.
Not a winter-only item, a small fire extinguisher should always be in your vehicle.
Bubble wrap is good if you have the space in your car: precut a piece for each window of the car and on each piece write which window it's for. Wet the glass (a mist bottle is optimal, so perhaps carry one in travel size), then press the bubble side of the wrap against the glass. The bubble wrap will be held by the film of water and greatly reduce heat loss through the glass.
If the water freezes as soon as it's applied to the glass you'll need to use tape to hold the bubble wrap. Gaffer and masking tapes leave little or no residue, although I don't know how well they work at sub zero temperatures.
I think it would be smart to add a shovel and a tow chain or strap. Also add a strobe light or flashing red light to warn other motorists if you are not moving. That way you don't put an extra burden on your battery by using emergency flashers.


Download Book Power Mechanisms Of Rotational And Cyclic Motions in PDF format. You can Read Online Power Mechanisms Of Rotational And Cyclic Motions here in PDF, EPUB, Mobi or Docx formats.
From the Physiology of Machines to the Anatomy of Machines An offshoot stemming from the author's previous book detailing the makeup and composition of a machine, Power Mechanisms of Rotational and Cyclic Motions provides an in-depth analysis of machine structure and operation. An important reference for practicing mechanical engineers, this book presents the kinematic diagrams of driving mechanisms in detail, analyzes their motion characteristics and efficiency, and addresses the lubricating problems that impact the reliability and operating life of machines. The diagrammatic representation of mechanisms is accompanied by examples of their general and detailed design, main geometry calculations, and recommendations for an approximate evaluation of principal dimensions. The authors consider the main stages of design, including the choice and analysis of kinematic diagrams, preliminary sizing, embodiment, and the design and dimensioning of specific elements including gears, shafts, bearings, springs, cams, fasteners, and others. A pivotal work, the book contains details of design that include: Analysis of diagrams of mechanisms (for their kinematic effects and efficiency) Rough dimensioning of the main elements Examples of the design of mechanisms and their elements (with relevant calculations of geometry and for strength) Design of specific subassemblies and parts (including their materials and heat treatment) Choice and design of lubrication systems Intended for engineering postgraduates, engineers, and designers of machines, Power Mechanisms of Rotational and Cyclic Motions also describes the main metals used in machinery and their mechanical characteristics and provides expressions for strength calculation. Covering a wide range of mechanisms, it contains numerous examples of design of mechanisms and accompanying calculations and design hints based on the authors' vast experience.
The biotechnology business in India with an increase from USD 500 million in 1997 and reaching an estimated USD 1 billion next year health related prod ucts accounting for 60%, agro and veterinary products together 15%, and con tract R&D, reagents, devices and supplies adding up to the remaining 25% of which the diagnostics share was about 10% of the total surely presented an encouraging picture even five years ago. While volumes have increased, the pat tern has not. According to a report, prepared by McKinsey & Co, India's Phar maceutical industry including domestic and export sales and contract services totals nearly USD 5 billion. Furthermore, the company optimistically projects the growth to a factor of five fold only if both the industry and the government are able to put in place achievable solutions that must take care of the formida ble obstacles preventing further growth. If this assessment is correct, then the established transformation made by IT growth should also provide the confi dence required by the high expectations for biotechnology which have arisen in the country in recent years. Some contributors to this are overenthusiastic these are bureaucrats, some retired scientists and of course the complacent politicians who have the least knowledge of what the new biotechnology is all about. However, there are clear indications of biotechnology growth demon strated by a few but rapidly expanding biotech companies such as Biocon Ltd, Shantha Biotech (P) Ltd, Dr.
This book has been designed as a full programme of study for the most popular mechanical engineering option units followed by students on Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering and Operations & Maintenance BTEC National Certificate and National Diploma courses. The author has structured the material so that manageable sections of text are complemented by in-text questions and features such as Test Your Knowledge, Activity and Maths in Action panels, making this an ideal book for student-centred classroom learning and independent study. Written for the new (2002) BTEC National specifications, this book will also be useful as an option unit resource for AVCE.
The result of Kenneth C Ludema's 35 years of teaching and research, Friction, Wear, Lubrication: A Textbook in Tribology presents a broad view of the many aspects of tribology. All major aspects of this discipline are included, from mechanical to materials to chemical to mechanics. Ludema's key research areas - marginally lubricated wear and friction - will be of special interest to readers who would like to find reliable and useful data on friction and wear rates. Written primarily as a text/reference, this informative volume describes how to solve design problems in friction and wear. By applying close and informed observation of presently operating tribological systems, along with careful design of simulative tests, readers can develop their own conclusions of tribological results. This book is intended to bring everyone solving problems in friction and wear to the same understanding of what is (and what is not) involved in this exciting field. Seniors and graduate students, as well as practicing engineers employed in a wide range of industries will find this book to be an essential and practical resource.

SCOTTISH WATER CREATES £8.7m WETLAND TO MANAGE STORM OVERFLOWS
Posted: Monday 19th January 2015
An innovative new environmental wetland project in Cowdenbeath by Scottish Water is now completed and promises to be an innovative storm water treatment method � as well as a boost for wildlife in the area.
The project was designed and delivered by reed bed specialists ARM Reed Beds (ARM) in partnership with Barhale Construction.
Located to the south of Cowdenbeath Golf Course and shielded by a row of trees, the new wetland, constructed at a cost of �8.7million, will naturally treat storm waters from two separate overflow streams and then pass the treated water into the Lochgelly Burn.
The wetland will also provide an ideal habitat for birds, insects and amphibians. In time the wetland will become a mini eco system and add to the diversity of wildlife in the area.
The Cowdenbeath area is serviced by a combined sewer network which connects to the Cowdenbeath Waste Water Pumping Station (WWPS) and storm tanks before being transported for treatment at the Levenmouth Waste Water Treatment Works (WWTW) further downstream.
Several Combined Sewer Overflows (CSO) exist within the network and two of these CSOs were the focus of this overflow treatment project, namely Selkirk Avenue CSO and Cowdenbeath WWPS CSO.
The improved discharge quality at these overflows is part of a larger programme that aims to improve the water quality in a number of watercourses in the Cowdenbeath area, in particular the Lochgelly burn.
The Lochgelly Burn is the main watercourse in Cowdenbeath and flows to Loch Gelly, which is considered to be a sensitive waterbody.
Previously, in times of heavy rainfall, the excess waste water was passed through a screened outlet directly into the burn which the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) classified as Class D - seriously polluted under their River Classifications Scheme.
The project will allow this excess waste water to be stored and treated to a significantly higher standard before allowing it to flow back into the natural environment. SEPA�s aspirations are that the standard is raised to classification A2 over time - this project will play a key part in that process.
Eddie Burns, Project Manager, Scottish Water, said: �The sewer overflows at two locations � the Cowdenbeath storm water works near Cowdenbeath Golf Course, and Selkirk Avenue � needed to be upgraded so they could continue to comply with modern environmental specifications. We are committed to finding the best solution for the local environment, and diverting the sewer overflows to a natural waste water treatment system proved to be the preferred option.
�Our solution is actually three separate projects. The first is to construct the wetland, another project to install a screen and a 1.2km transfer sewer from Selkirk Avenue. And finally we have upgraded the pumping stations and storm tanks near the wetland which previously transferred the storm waters.
�The new system will provide sufficient treatment to allow storm waters to flow back into the Lochgelly Burn without compromising water quality. Another upside is that it also creates a wildlife habitat for birds as well as insects, newts and other amphibious organisms.
�The project involved the construction of a specialised wetland and reed bed system that removes solids and forces oxygen into the waters, thus enabling it to reach a standard where it meets SEPA requirements for us to pass the flows into the Lochgelly burn.
�The result is a sustainable, low-carbon answer to a complex waste water management issue. The wetland is flexible in that we can alter how it treats the water depending on the flow, so in times of high flow the complex aeration system kicks in but otherwise it remains off and saves energy.
�The system ARM has designed is both cost-effective and in-line with how we want to treat waste water in the future. Once complete, the wetland system will require little maintenance, saving costs year-on-year which will benefit everyone.�
The wetland system can treat 230,000m3 a year, the equivalent of around 100 Olympic swimming pools. The waste water comes from around 11,000 customers in the Cowdenbeath area.
Pupils from Cowdenbeath Primary School took part in a competition to create a piece of art inspired by the wetland habitat. Scottish Water has thanked the school by donating two large bird feeders for the playground.
The pupils and their parents visited the wetland and unveiled a plaque commemorating the opening and their visit. They also had their photo taken with Chris Wallace, Director of Communications, Scottish Water and Karyn Rennie, Headteacher at Cowdenbeath Primary School.
Karyn Rennie said: �This was a great opportunity for the pupils to take part in a project that raises their awareness of the local environment and to exercise their art skills. The class visit to the site was fascinating for adults and children alike and shows the work that goes on behind the scenes to protect Cowdenbeath�s natural environment.�
Scottish Water has invested heavily in Fife since 2002. �224.5million has been spent to improve water and waste water services across the region. In the 2010-2015 investment period, there is still a further �13.7million being invested, including a �2million refurbishment of Kirkcaldy waste water treatment works and a large number of smaller projects to upgrade the waste water network.

Count Curt von Stedingk (1746-1837) was born to a noble family in Swedish Pomerania and joined the Swedish army at an early age. He received his baptism of fire in the battle of Stralsund when he was only 13 years old and later joined the Swedish regiment in France, Royal suédois. He took part in the America War of Independence and was awarded the Order of the Cincinnati by George Washington.
Back in France, he was celebrated as a hero and, with the more famous Axel von Fersen, he became a member of the circle around Queen Marie-Antoinette and King Louis XVI, which also brought him into contact with King Gustaf III of Sweden, with whom he was to develop a close relationship.
In 1787 he returned to Sweden and took part in the war against Russia in 1788-1789. When the war ended he was appointed ambassador to the court of St Petersburg, where he was on close terms with the monarchs Ekaterina II and Aleksandr I.
He was recalled from St Petersburg when war again broke out between Sweden and Russia in 1808. After the Swedish defeat it fell to him to lead the negotiations for peace with Russia in Fredrikshamn in 1809 and it was he who had to put his signature on the treaty which cost Sweden Finland. After the peace had been concluded, he was again appointed ambassador to Russia.
Already made a general in 1807 and a count in 1809, in 1812 he was promoted to the rank of Field Marshal. He led the Swedish army in the campaign against France and in 1814 Stedingk signed the Peace of Paris on his country's behalf.
He made his last visit to Russia at the age of 80 in 1826, when he represented Sweden and Norway at the coronation of Emperor Nikolaj I. When he died in 1837, he was the last surviving Swedish Field Marshal and the last of the so-called "Gustavians", having seen six kings from Fredrik I to Carl XIV Johan.
The picture shows a detail of a portrait by G. J. J. H. Le Monnier. It was done in 1802 and hangs at Elghammar Manor, the beautiful country house in Russian Empire style, located in Sudermania, which Giacomo Quarenghi, one of Ekaterina II's favourite court architects, designed for Stedingk in 1809-1810.

This CC Model 4 by Jeremy Robertson of Calavera Cutlery features a tumble finished drop point blade with swedge, thumb hole and notched thumb rest. The handle is comprised of tumbled and bead blasted titanium frame with a matching tip up clip over a single backspacer. Lanyard pin in pommel. Marked CC Mod 4 003 USA inside frame. Excellent condition, shows no signs of use or carry.
My name is Jeremy Robertson. I am the custom knife maker and owner of Calavera Cutlery LLC located in San Diego County California. I started crafting knives in 2008 as a hobby on my days off as an airline pilot. I fell in love with the trade. I have now been a full time maker since 2010. I started off making fixed blades, draw filing in my kitchen. Then forging knives and tomahawks in my garage the old school way. I now make folders using modern materials such as titanium and powdered steels and using more modern methods of precision manufacturing. The name Calavera is Spanish for "skull". There is an extinct volcano here in Carlsbad that was on my ancestor's ranch that the Vaqueros (Mexican Cowboys) called Calavera. It is known today as Calavera Hills. My knives are 100% hand made by me using the best materials available. All the raw materials I purchase from the steel to the handle material and the screws are made in the U.S.A. To me it's not made in the U.S.A unless the materials in the product are made here too.


"Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was reached."
By default, the max pool size is set to 100. This is more than sufficient unless your program opens 101 connections inside a single thread, which is a rare scenario.
Most of the times you are lucky since the GC will try to recover the unused SqlConnection object, and so you might not get this error at all. And so if you right a sample application to test the error, that opens 101 connections and does not close it , you will not see the error, since chances are that GC would have reclaimed the open connection.
How do we identify if we have a connection leak ?
Simplest way to identify a connection leak is to run the Performance Monitor utility and add the .Net Data Provider for SQL Server for the given process that you suspect leaks the connection. Please remember that you need to attach it to the right application process else you will not have correct information.
Once attached look for the NumberOfReclaimedConnections. This counter is a newly added counter for ADO.NET 2.0 . Any number here will tell the story.

Elephant seals of Guadalupe Island – one of the most amazing "comebacks" in the world – divemaster images – 19 September 2010
Post by: Nautilus Staff
It is a great privilege to be allowed to visit Guadalupe Island. On our most recent voyage out there, we were very fortunate to get some fantastic images of resident elephant seals using a long-distance telephoto lens during a rarely permitted shoreside visit. What made this visit all the more specia is the sad history of the elephant seal and their amazing "comeback".
American and white european fur traders first decimated the sea otter population on the west coast of North America following Captain Cook's first visit to this part of the world and the subsequent commercial demand for sea otter pelts. Reports indicate that the value of a single otter pelt in Manchuria at the height of that trade was in excess of $100,000 (adjusted for inflation). Sea otters were wiped out and the hunters turned their attention to other marine mammals. Elephant seals were heavily targeted from 1846 until 1860 when there were so few animals left that the hunt was no longer considered economically viable. By the 1880's, the elephant seal was considered extinct until an expedition by Smithsonian Institute to Guadalupe Island in 1892 during which 8 animals were discovered. 7 of which were killed. Heartbreakingly, 4 of the 7 dead animals were left on the beach and not even recovered for scientific purposes (as reported by Charles H. Townsend of the New York Aquarium). Estimates were hurriedly revised from extinct to a pocket of 20 – 100 elephant seals still alive on Guadalupe Island. In 1911, 125 animals were counted on an expedition led by Charles H. Townsend. And then in 1922, 264 animals were counted. Kudos – huge kudos – to the mexican authorities who declared the elephant seal to be a protected species and backed that up with a show of naval force. Astonishingly, the population has now rebounded to in excess of 150,000 animals over their entire former range.!!!!
Very likely, it was the migration schedule of the elephant seal that tricked us into giving them up for extinction. The concern now is about their lack of genetic diversity given that all the elephant seals are the descendants of a handful of bulls. This DNA bottleneck may make the entire population vulnerable to disease.
In the meantime, we wish them will and suggest that they keep a shark – I mean sharp – lookout for our big white toothy friends cruising back and forth 100 metres offshore.

This is an illustration project from my student days (dated 1993) and one of the few pieces of my original work that I kept in our move. My mind works in pictures so I had great fun figuring out how to marry words and images together into something more than just a letter.
Can you work all the letters out? Which one is your favourite? I'd love to hear from you in the comments below.
Occasionally I illustrate my blog posts now, like this one: Happy Birthday Daddy and here: Imperfect but Lovely.
Thanks, great to be a part of it again.

Eryka Jenkins, left, the director of student equity and inclusion, and Sarah Wilson, a visiting scholar, are conducting civil discourse sessions this year with seniors.
Engaging in the Hard Work of Civil Discourse
This might seem like a silly question: Are you a dog person or a cat person? Why? Now imagine you're a dog lover and you can't understand the enthusiasm of a cat aficionado. Or vice versa. Suppose you have to explain your passion for your favorite pet to a person who disagrees with you. How do you communicate your beliefs civilly?
That's an example of a somewhat benign topic that people often disagree on, but imagine if the assignment is to explain your views on religion, politics, race, or a number of other topics that lead to disagreements. The discussions can grow quite heated.
How do we learn the skills to talk to one another without dismissing opinions or completely blowing up? This is the work of practicing civil discourse. According to the organization Facing History and Ourselves, civil discourse is when we "listen respectfully to different opinions and experiences, try out ideas and positions, and give and get constructive feedback without fear or intimidation."
Getting Hutchison girls to understand and engage in civil discourse is the objective of Eryka Jenkins and Sarah Wilson this year. Jenkins is the school's director of student equity and inclusion, and Wilson is a visiting scholar to Hutchison. She serves as the executive director of the Tennessee Association of Independent Schools (TAIS) and previously directed Laurel's Center for Research on Girls (LCRG) at the Laurel School in Shaker Heights, Ohio. She is also the parent of two Hutchison girls.
Part of Hutchison's mission is to "educate young women … for lives of integrity and responsible citizenship." Working together, Jenkins and Wilson are beginning to codify the principles of civil discourse throughout the school and in classrooms, where civil discourse discussions often arise organically. Additionally, they are being intentional by conducting a series of civil discourse sessions with Hutchison's seniors. They chose to focus on the senior class this year because it's crucial for them to practice these skills before heading off to college.
Before jumping into practicing civil discourse, Jenkins and Wilson challenged the seniors to create and agree on their own ground rules. "It was empowering for them to be able to decide those rules themselves," Jenkins said. "They're more likely to follow rules they agree on than if someone is dictating the rules."
She added that they were intentional, at first, about not mandating certain topics. "We made it about communicating across difference." The earlier question about whether you prefer dogs or cats, for example, was a kind of ice breaker.
"We made it about communicating across difference."
They then framed the sessions with six skills for civil discourse that were defined by Laurel's Center for Research on Girls. The first three are emotional, the last three are cognitive.
Wilson noted that it was important for the girls to understand that these six skills are not just habits or characteristics of their personality. "You have to engage and practice these skills. You're going to make mistakes on the way to improving your ability to engage in civil discourse," she explained. "You make mistakes, you learn from them, you build, you work towards mastering and honing these skills."
A second aspect of this work is that you need others who are mutually engaged in the same pursuit as you are, so that you feel comfortable hearing their feedback. "We discussed what feedback looks like," Jenkins added. "So, if someone says something that's an ouch point, how will you respond? How will you not respond?"
Why Do This Kind of Work?
Jenkins and Wilson understood going into these discussions that a lot of the girls, even though they are seniors, may not be accustomed to this type of conversation. They talked about the "a-ha!" moments that girls had while participating in these sessions.
For instance, some girls considered the differences between debate, in which the goal is to win your argument, and civil discourse, in which you are sharing ideas and enlarging your own understanding. Additionally, they came to the realization that they've spent most of their academic lives writing essays to argue a certain point.
"Girls ... considered the differences between debate, in which the goal is to win your argument, and civil discourse, in which you are sharing ideas and enlarging your own understanding."
Within these civil discourse sessions, Jenkins said, they're having to examine what they believe and why. "A lot of them haven't had to think about that. We are challenging them to think about the factors that have contributed to them holding an opinion or a belief and then helping them see that we all land somewhere different."
Wilson explained that practicing civil discourse is not about changing anyone's mind. "A group of researchers who looked at disagreement in the classroom found that when students disagree with each other and talk it through, they are less likely to change their minds, but more likely to better understand their positions and the other person's position. That's a key skill for life."
"Some of them have experienced discomfort with these sessions," Jenkins admitted. "There were a few who were even honest and said that they didn't think that they could learn anything from someone who thought differently than they do."
There were highlights, though. Wilson provided an example: "In one session, there was a girl who is very confident. She's an accomplished leader, an accomplished student, and she shared her point of view. Another girl asked her questions designed to understand her point of view better. At the end, when we were giving them feedback, the confident speaker said, 'I was really nervous about that.' We had no idea she was nervous. We thought she handled it gracefully, and we asked her how she did that. She credited the other student's authentic openness, true questioning, her tone, and the use of those effective engagement skills for her comfort.
"It's that idea that it's a two-way street," Wilson added. "It's two people coming together with shared norms and shared groundwork for engagement."
Computer Science Adventures in Lower School
As with many academic adventures at Hutchison, a weeklong lesson on computer science and coding transformed into an interdisciplinary exploration for our girls as teachers from various subjects incorporated coding activities into their day-to-day lessons.

Caroline Halliday '21 Pays It Forward
Caroline Halliday '21 had her Hutchison social science certificate project all planned out. She wanted to start a Community Supported Agriculture vegetable subscription service for Hutchison families, but with a pay-it-forward twist: for every one purchased by a Hutchison family, she would provide one for a family in need in Memphis. Then the pandemic hit, and her plans got turned upside down.

Upper school history teacher Ronnie Robinson admits he had to re-think his teaching methodology to make sure students continued to engage in the distance learning environment, but he is up to the challenge.
Laurie Fraser Stanton '65: A Lifetime Devoted To Hutchison
Joy. It's a word that is used often when people speak of Hutchison. It appears in our alma mater, and it's the name given to the statue of a jubilant girl in the school's courtyard. Laurie Fraser Stanton '65 loves to see that statue when she walks through Hutchison's courtyard daily. "It is such a symbol of the joy of this place," she said. Joy is what has made Stanton's work at the school over the past 50 years so meaningful. During her time as a student and then as a teacher and administrator, she has experienced a wealth of friendships and joy.
Understanding Memphis and Adapting to Distance Learning
Distance learning had minimal impact on the "Memphis unit," a third grade tradition at Hutchison. Plans for a Living Museum had to be scrapped, but the girls moved forward with promotional brochures, as planned.

Let It Flow! Outrunning Lava and Other Lessons
How fast do honey, cooking oil, and water flow on an elevated cookie sheet? Donna Budynas' first distance learning lab, to test viscosity, or the measure of how liquid flows, was rather tame. But then, she kicked it up a notch! She asked her sixth grade science class to outrun lava – Indiana Jones-style. Extra credit was offered for wearing explorer gear and family involvement was encouraged.
An Inspirational Tale About Transpiration
A lot of things have changed, but labs go on in Mary Lee Wesberry's AP Biology class! With Google Meet, a cell phone, nail polish, a potted plant, and a portable microscope she received at the St. Jude Science Scholars of Tomorrow, Wesberry quickly switched gears to begin the fourth quarter as planned, with the Transpiration Lab.
World Languages: The Kitchen Edition
If your fourth grader suddenly raided the pantry for unhealthy snacks and said "Señora Chelsoi made me do it," she was telling the truth! Fourth graders in Kenna Chelsoi's Spanish class ended up in their kitchens to explain what they had learned in Lucy's Wesson's science class. The science lesson was about the nutrients your body needs to stay healthy. Señora Chelsoi asked girls to translate that to Spanish. Sophia Wilson was quick to come up with examples.

I found some code to put a stopwatch on a site page. I want the user to enter their name and the task they are performing and start the timer.
When they stop the timer I want the Name, Task and Time to be sent to a list. I have the Name and Task going to the list but not the time.
Can anyone take a look at my script and tell me what I have to do to write my stopwatch time to the list with the Name and Task?
Note: The "min" is a tag Id, you can't use ".Value" to get data, if you only want to get the "min" value, you need use this.
It can be done using the REST API and it's not too complicated.
Here a sample code with comments to get you started.
var listType = "SP.Data.ChecklistDoneListItem"; //This is unique for each list, as far as I can tell it's composed of "SP.Data." + [Internal list name] + "ListItem"
Basically all you need to do is to call a function which includes the above code from the "stop button". Add your own input variables. Change the fields in the upper part to match your list and add your variables to each field.
Let me know if anythins is unclear - oh and for the record this is for O365/2013/2016 on prem. Might work for 2010, but not entirely sure.

Entertainment2019 Academy Awards
Oscars 2019 Predictions: Who Will Win in All 24 Academy Awards Categories
Brian Raftery
When it comes to the 2019 Academy Awards, there are only three etched-in-stone certainties about the big night: 1) The show will be held Sunday, Feb. 24, on ABC; 2) it will start at 8 p.m. Eastern Time; and 3) Glenn Close is finally going to take home a statue.
At least, that's the consensus among several long-time Oscar-watchers, all of whom believe seven-time nominee Close will win a long-deserved Best Actress statue for her role in The Wife. She's one of a handful of sure-things in a night that's sure to be full of surprises: Will Netflix's Roma become the first foreign language film to win Best Picture—and solidify the streamer's takeover of Hollywood? Will Rami Malek, star of the king-sized Queen-biopic Bohemian Rhapsody, be among the night's champions? And will the show's producers be able to hand out all 24 awards in just three hours, even without a host? (Answer: Probably not.)
For a sense of who will emerge victorious on Sunday night, Fortune surveyed the picks of many high-profile experts, including writers and columnists for The Hollywood Reporter, Variety, The Ringer, Entertainment Weekly, and GoldDerby.com. Then we ran their best guesses through our own internal Oscar-prediction machine—aka a slightly doughy guy sitting on a couch in suburban Burbank—to synthesize who will win on the big night. Feel free to use the below conclusions for your own office pool or Oscar-party ballot, but keep in mind the words of William Goldman, the two-time Oscar-winner (and Academy Awards obsessive) who passed away last year. When it comes to the movie industry, Goldman famously wrote, "Nobody knows anything." That goes double for the Oscars.
BlackKkKlansman
THE BEST BET: Only a few months ago, the idea of some more conservative members giving a Netflix movie a major prize seemed like a long-shot. But Bohemian Rhapsody is likely too controversial for a Best Picture win; Green Book is well-liked by many, but has had an at-times rough awards-season campaign; and while the other films all have their supporters, it's Roma—a patient, gorgeous, and often stirring black-and-white tale of life in 1970s Mexico—that feels the most Best Picture-y. It helps, of course, that Netflix has reportedly spent at least $25 million promoting the film's release (and that's not even counting the billboards the company purchased last year). Yet while nearly all of the pundits agree that Roma will take home the top prize, don't count out a quiet movie-biz backlash against the streaming company, which could lead to an upset in the form of the beloved, billion-dollar-grossing Black Panther.
Spike Lee (BlacKkKlansman)
Yorgos Lanthimos (The Favourite)
Pawel Pawlikowski (Cold War)
Alfonso Cuarón (Roma)
Adam McKay (Vice)
THE BEST BET: Alfonso Cuarón has already won most of the other big directing prizes this season, and the fact that he also served as Roma's cinematographer and screenwriter only reinforces his rep as one of the era's most gifted filmmakers. Of course, there's also lots of love for Lee, which brings us to…
Best Adapted Screenplay
THE BEST BET: BlacKkKlansman's Spike Lee, Charlie Wachtel, David Rabinowitz, and Kevin Willmott are the ones to watch here. Lee's only Academy Award is a (well-deserved) honorary Oscar, but BlacKkKlansman will finally give the filmmaker a statue in competitive category, 30 years after his Do the Right Thing became a global phenomenon.
Best Original Screenplay
THE BEST BET: The Favourite is the favorite. Deborah Davis and Tony McNamara's script faces formidable competition from the legendary Paul Schrader (First Reformed) and the team behind Green Book. But the consensus-favorite is The Favourite, with its biting one-liners and oh-so-withering retorts.
Best Actress in a Leading Role
Yalitza Aparicio (Roma)
Glenn Close (The Wife)
Olivia Colman (The Favourite)
Lady Gaga (A Star Is Born)
Melissa McCarthy (Can You Ever Forgive Me?)
THE BEST BET: Glenn Close. It's not even close.
Best Actress in a Supporting Role
Amy Adams (Vice)
Marina de Tavira (Roma)
Regina King (If Beale Street Could Talk)
Emma Stone (The Favourite)
Rachel Weisz (The Favourite)
THE BEST BET: Pick Regina King, though if you're feeling risky—and perhaps looking for one of those surprise upsets that could put your ballot ahead of your office-mates—Weisz could also be a wise choice.
Best Actor in a Leading Role
Christian Bale (Vice)
Bradley Cooper (A Star Is Born)
Willem Dafoe (At Eternity's Gate)
Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody)
Viggo Mortensen (Green Book)
THE BEST BET: Count on Rami Malek, who charmed audiences, and overcame a difficult production, to inhabit the late Freddie Mercury. If you don't believe us, talk to the Los Angeles couple that's seen Rhapsody 24 times…and counting.
Best Actor in a Supporting Role
Mahershala Ali (Green Book)
Adam Driver (BlackKkKlansman)
Sam Elliott (A Star Is Born)
Richard E. Grant (Can You Ever Forgive Me?)
Sam Rockwell (Vice)
THE BEST BET: While nearly all of the pundits have gone with Mahershala Ali, don't discount the Academy's large percentage of British voters, who might help the delightful Richard E. Grant win his first-ever Oscar.
Best Foreign Language Film
THE BEST BET: In what comes down to a proxy war between two streamers—Roma is from Netflix, Cold War from Amazon—Roma will likely come out ahead, thanks to its Best Picture momentum. But Cold War is beloved by many in the Academy, as evidenced by its nominations in the Directing and Cinematography categories.
Best Animated Feature Film
THE BEST BET: It wasn't as successful at the box-office as some of its competitors, but Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse felt like a big swing forward in animated storytelling—and will likely be rewarded for it.
Best Original Song
"All The Stars," Black Panther
"I'll Fight," RBG
"The Place Where Lost Things Go," Mary Poppins Returns
"Shallow," A Star Is Born
"When a Cowboy Trades His Spurs For Wings," The Ballad of Buster Scruggs
THE BEST BET: "Shallow," by a sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-long stretch.
Best Original Score
THE BEST BET: If Beale Street Could Talk is the top pick among the experts, though the Grammy-winning Black Panther score prove to be a come-from-behind Marvel.
Best Documentary
Hale County This Morning, This Evening
THE BEST BET: An appropriately up-in-the-air category: The high-climbing doc Free Solo and the supremely popular Ruth Bader Ginsburg account RBG were both box-office hits—and this a category that reliably goes to well-known films (and well-known subjects, like Ginsburg). Most pundits have Free Solo in their sights, though voters' affection for Ginsburg might be big factor. One possible underdog: Hulu's youth-in-crisis tale Minding the Gap is one of the best-reviewed movies of last year in any category; if RBG and Free Solo split the vote, watch the </em><em>Gap emerge as a genuine surprise winner.
Best Documentary Short Subject
A Night at the Garden
THE BEST BET: Good luck with this one! Nearly all of the pundits are split on this one, though Period. End of Sentence.—about women in rural India who must manufacture their own menstrual pads—has urgency, admirers, and the backing of Netflix.
Best Costume Design
THE BEST BET: All the stars are aligning for Black Panther's super threads.
Best Cinematography
THE BEST BET: Another sure-fire win for team Roma.
Best Makeup and Hairstyling
THE BEST BET: You can't spell "victorious prosthetics" without VP, so expect Vice's transformation of ex-Batman Christian Bale into Dick Cheney to win the night.
Best Film Editing
THE BEST BET: Another toughie: The jittery Vice is on many experts' lists, but the well-known behind-the-scenes struggles of Bohemian Rhapsody—which went through two directors, representing a substantial editing challenge—might endear the Queen biopic to voters. It's a close race, so, in the words of Vanilla Ice: Vice, Vice…maybe?
Best Sound Mixing
THE BEST BET: The difficult task of bringing Freddie Mercury's vocals to life will give Bohemian Rhapsody the Oscar in a flash.
Best Sound Editing
THE BEST BET: The technical feats of First Man are widely admired within the industry, giving it a moon-sliver-sized edge over Bohemian Rhapsody.
Best Live-Action Short Film
Detainment
THE BEST BET: This is always one of the toughest to call, though in a year full of somber shorts, many experts are betting on the relatively upbeat Marguerite—a French short about an unlikely friendship—to be the night's winner.
Best Animated Short Film
THE BEST BET: The poignant, Pixar-produced Bao—which got a boost from playing in front of last year's hit Incredibles 2—is a safe bet here.
Best Production Design
THE BEST BET: The lavish and lovely 18th-century sets of The Favourite will likely woo the most voters.
Best Visual Effects
THE BEST BET: Another divisive race, as awards-predictors alternate between First Man and Avengers: Infinity War. We're guessing Avengers: Infinity War will win it in a snap.

What do you get when you add 70 million active users of one radio company to 36 million subscribers of another? The biggest audio entertainment in the world. That's what the CEO of Sirius XM says about his company's purchase of Pandora. Sirius XM is a satellite radio company that was formed in 2008 when the Sirius and XM radio services merged. It offers music, news, talk and sports along with a number of personalities for subscribers to listen to and it makes most of it's money from those subscribers. Pandora is a streaming music service that was founded in the year 2000. It makes most of it's money from advertisers.
So why would Sirius want to buy Pandora? Well most of those who subscribe to Sirius listen through their cars. The company wants more listeners in more different places than that and it believes that buying Pandora is the way to get there. Sirius already owned 19 percent of Pandora's stock from a purchase made last year. It's spending $3.5 billion to buy Pandora entirely also through stock. The deal still has to be reviewed by the company's shareholders and by the U.S. government. If it gets the go-ahead, it's expected to be completed early next year.
