Supporting Researchers Remotely

Date: Wednesday 24 March 2021Author: karenasayers 2 Comments
Our Collections Assistant, Helen Price, explains how the Research Centre Team have been supporting researchers.
Since returning to the campus in August, the Special Collections Research Centre Team have been busy finding innovative ways to allow researchers to continue to access our amazing collections. Just over a year ago the Research Centre was filled each day with the hum of researchers eagerly poring over their selected material. Sadly, we're currently having to limit in-person access, but we are proud and excited about the developments in our service over the last few months.
Access Images
We are now offering free access images to all researchers. Members of the Research Centre Team use mobile devices to take images of material on request which can then be emailed directly to the researcher. We can provide, for free, as many images as we can produce in one hour. Access images are ideal for quite specific material, be it either text or image based. This service has proved a very popular option and we have taken an average 4000 images per month for the last 6 months! Higher resolution, professional quality images can also be produced by our Digitisation team.

We are also offering virtual consultation video calls. These sessions are ideal for gaining an overview of a particular collection or examining material to determine specific images to request. We use a webcam to display the material and we can also use screen sharing to offer support for browsing the catalogue and queries about accessing and requesting material. Running these sessions has been a steep learning curve and we're still exploring ways to improve the experience, from camera stands, pen-cams and table-top lights to recording the sessions so the material can be viewed again later.
Our researchers continue to play a huge part in helping us to develop this service by offering their valuable feedback and suggestions as well as their patience as we try new techniques and technologies.

Continuing Support for Students, Staff and External Researchers
We know how difficult the last year has been for all researchers and we are delighted to be continuing to provide access to the collections. This semester we have been busy supporting students with their dissertations, providing images and information for television broadcasts and supporting academic staff with remote teaching sessions. We've also been assisting external researchers with academic publications, family history and many other projects.
The past year has highlighted the international diversity of our researchers. With this in mind, we are exploring ways to continue offering the best possible remote access to our collections even when we are able to welcome more visitors back to the Special Collections Research Centre.

Threat-Thwarting Guidance Published for Cargo Ships
Sarah Coble News Writer
A Dutch nonprofit has published new guidance to help cargo ships repulse cyber-attacks.
The Digital Container Shipping Association (DCSA) unveiled its "DCSA Implementation Guide for Cyber Security on Vessels" on Tuesday.
The document was designed to facilitate vessel readiness for the IMO (International Maritime Organization) Resolution MSC.428(98) on Maritime Cyber Risk Management in Safety Management Systems.
Produced in conjunction with nine of the organization's member carriers, the guide outlines best practices for ocean carriers and provides shipping companies around the world with a common language with which to discuss the cyber-threats faced by their industry.
DCSA's new guide breaks down the implementation of an effective cybersecurity strategy into five key areas: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover.
Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, advice is tailored to the company's level of cyber-maturity and explanations and recommendations are written in non-technical language to make the document user-friendly.
Thomas Bagge, DCSA CEO, said there was a need for shipping to raise its level of cybersecurity preparedness up to that of other industries that have already taken steps to secure themselves.
"As shipping catches up with other industries such as banking and telco in terms of digitization, the need for cyber risk management becomes an imperative," said Bagge.
He went on to explain how the economic importance of shipping made the industry a prime target for threat actors.
Bagge said: "Due to the global economic dependence on shipping and the complex interconnectedness of shipping logistics, cyber-attacks such as malware, denial of service, and system hacks can not only disrupt one carrier's revenue stream, they can have a significant impact on the global economy."
While advice on cybersecurity differs from country to country and from government to government, the DCSA tasks itself with providing objective guidance that doesn't favor a particular business or nation.
Bagge explained: "As a neutral digital standards organization, DCSA is uniquely positioned to help vessel owners mitigate the increasing risk of cyberattack on their ships, and in turn, on the industry at large."
Head of maritime safety and security for the Baltic and International Maritime Council Jakob Larsen said the new guidance "provides a thorough and refreshing deep dive into the challenge of how to implement cyber risk management in a shipowner company."

Love, Garland score 22 as Cavs rout depleted Raptors 144-99
Darius Garland
December 26, 2021, 8:47 p.m. ·3 min read
CLEVELAND (AP) — Kevin Love and Darius Garland scored 22 points apiece, and the Cleveland Cavaliers tied their franchise record with 46 points in the third quarter of a 144-99 rout over the COVID-19 depleted Toronto Raptors on Sunday night.
Lauri Markkanen added 20 points and Garland had eight assists for Cleveland, which led by 47 points twice late in the fourth. The Cavaliers won their fifth in a row at home and made 22 3-pointers in a team-record 52 attempts.
Yuta Watanabe posted career highs of 26 points and 13 rebounds for Toronto, and Chris Boucher scored 21 points. The Raptors have 10 players in the NBA's health and safety protocols, including top scorer Fred VanVleet, rookie Scottie Barnes and Pascal Siakam.
The Raptors' eight-man active roster — featuring four hardship signees — had never been together until holding a brief practice on the main court at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse before the game. D.J. Wilson had 15 points and eight rebounds in his team debut.
Toronto's previous two games were postponed when it could not suit up the required eight players. Boucher, Watanabe, Svi Mykhailiuk and Dalano Banton were the Raptors' only holdovers from their pre-outbreak squad.
It was Cleveland's largest victory margin of the season and the first time Toronto has lost by more than 17 points in 2021-22. The Cavaliers had 39 assists, two shy of the most in the NBA this season.
Denzel Valentine had 17 points and nine rebounds, Dean Wade scored 17 points, and Ricky Rubio had 16 points and six assists for Cleveland. Love grabbed nine boards and Tacko Fall had three points and seven rebounds in 11 minutes off the bench.
Rookie Evan Mobley and center Jarrett Allen were among seven Cavaliers sidelined because of the safety protocols. Cleveland has the fifth-best record in the Eastern Conference at 20-13.
Raptors: G Gary Trent Jr., F Precious Achiuwa, F OG Anunoby, C Khem Birch, F Isaac Bonga, F Justin Champagnie and G Malachi Flynn also are in the health and safety protocols. … G Goran Dragic (personal reasons) and G David Johnson (left calf strain) were officially active, but unavailable. … F D.J. Wilson, F Juwan Morgan, C Daniel Oturu and G Tremont Waters are on 10-day contracts via roster exceptions.
Cavaliers: G Isaac Okoro missed his third straight game as he works on his conditioning after being cleared from the safety protocols. … F Cedi Osman was added to the protocols earlier in the day, joining C Ed Davis, G RJ Nembhard, G Lamar Stevens and F Dylan Windler. … Cleveland leads the East and ranks third in the NBA with 15 double-digit victories. The Cavaliers' last 11 wins have been by at least 10 points.
Cavaliers coach J.B. Bickerstaff, who was promoted to the job on Feb. 19, 2020, signed a multi-year contract extension on Saturday morning. The son of longtime NBA coach and current Cleveland senior advisor Bernie Bickerstaff took over a team in disarray following the resignation of John Beilein. "If you look at our roster, we've got guys locked in here for a long time," said Bickerstaff, who is 47-69 with the Cavaliers. "Now, with this coaching staff, we're locked in for a long time, too."
Raptors: Host Philadelphia on Tuesday night.
Cavaliers: Visit New Orleans on Tuesday night.

2021 Tesla Model Y
July 13, 2019 ·Tesla
Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed the Model Y crossover SUV to a crowd of cellphone-wielding fans at the company's design studio in Hawthorne, California. The White Stripes' "Icky Thump" played in the background as a fantastic blue Model Y crossover glided into a spot along with a Model S, 3, and X inside the jam-packed studio. "We are restoring attractive, quite literally," Musk said to cheers from his fans, referencing the names of the Tesla lineup. (Ford owns the hallmark on Model E, for this reason, the Model 3 name.) For its part, the Model Y was promoted as combining the performance of a midsize crossover with the dexterity of a sports car.
2021 Tesla Model Y Price
The fundamental model is priced at $40,200 consisting of a $1200 destination charge. That's for the rear-drive-only Standard Range version, with rear-drive Long Range variants beginning at $48,200. The Long-Range can be upgraded to dual-motor all-wheel drive for $4,000 more. The Performance version will use the most power, have standard all-wheel drive, and start at $61,200.
2021 Tesla Model Y Performance
Like the Model 3, it will speed up from zero-to-60-mph in as quickly as 3.5 seconds. The slowest Model Y, the Standard, will strike 60 in 5.9 seconds and have a top speed of 120 mph, while Performance purchasers can expect to be able to attain 150 miles per hour.
The range will vary from 230 to 300 miles. The Standard model of the Model Y will offer the lower number. The rear-drive Long Range is the 300-mile Model Y, while the dual-motor versions (Long Range and Performance) check-in at 280 miles of range.
2021 Tesla Model Y Features
Standard equipment consists of a breathtaking glass roof. All Model Ys also get a single 15.0-inch touchscreen and split-folding seats that enable cargo space to broaden to as much as 66 cubic feet. Additional cargo space is available under the hood in the frunk, while an optional $3000 third row of seats can broaden capacity from 5 to 7 passengers.
Choices consist of Autopilot and Full Self-Driving Capability. Auto-pilot will run $3,000, while the controversially named Full Self-Driving Capability pack– Tesla says it permits the car to recognize and react to traffic signal and stop signs, can automatically drive your vehicle to you in a parking lot, and deal full automatic driving from on-ramp to off-ramp, and instantly work out city streets– costs $5,000. Elon Musk has actually claimed all Teslas may have the ability to fully drive themselves by the end of this year, and do so while you sleep by the end of 2020.
2021 Tesla Model Y Sale
Shipments are anticipated to start in the fall of 2020. The Model Y Performance, with the Long Range and Dual-Motor All-Wheel Drive variants to follow. The Standard Range Model Y will follow in the spring of 2021– fingers crossed.
The order books are open. Deposits can be produced $2500, a significant hike over the $1000 deposit needed to get in line for a Model 3 when it was announced.
2021 Tesla Model Y Review
The Tesla Model Y is based upon the Model 3. The 5th Tesla EV– after the original Roadster, the S, the X, and the 3– shares its wheelbase, chassis, and powertrain options with the brand name's a present tiniest model, the Model 3 sedan.
Parts commonness between the 2 is roughly 86 percent. That's according to the company in a January 2019 profits call. The Models S and X share just 30 percent of their parts. The increased commonality needs to make the Model Y simpler to integrate into current assembly processes and make it rather less costly to produce.
The Model Y has to do with 10 percent bigger than the Model 3. The more effective versions thus use somewhat less range than the small sedan, which is ranked for 220 miles with a complete charge in the least-expensive Standard Range and 325 in the Long Range version. Even with the minimized range, Tesla is predicting the need to be perhaps 50 percent higher for the Model Y than the Model 3 owing to the previous's crossover body style.
It does not have falcon-wing doors. The fresh rear doors, as seen on the Model X, were stated to be really costly to develop and difficult to produce, and have actually apparently been problematic for consumers. So despite Elon tweeting the Model Y would have them a few years earlier, yeah, no. It doesn't.
2021 Tesla Model Y Production
It will be built in Shanghai and Reno. Production is slated to begin near the end of 2020 in Tesla's Gigafactories in Shanghai, China, and Reno, Nevada.

Karahallı is a town and district of Uşak Province in the inner Aegean region of Turkey. Karahallı district area neighbors those of two other districts of the same province to the north, namely Ulubey and Sivaslı, and to the south those of two districts depending Denizli Province which are Çivril and Bekilli.

Karahallı center is at a distance of  from the province center of Uşak lying to its north. The district has fourteen depending villages, namely; Alfaklar, Buğdaylı, Beki, Çoğuplu, Çokaklı, Delihıdırlı, Dumanlı, Duraklı, Külköy, Kaykıllı, Kırkyaren, Kavaklı, Karayakuplu and Paşalar.

The district area is crossed by Banaz Stream and is divided roughly equally between agricultural lands and woodland, mostly oaks.

The name of the town makes reference to its founder, the 14th century Turkmen bey Kara Halil. The township was made into a district in 1953, simultaneous to the separation of Uşak Province from Kütahya Province, and Uşak's becoming a province seat.

There is a recently built dam and its reservoir, which is arranged into a recreational area that stands out notably by the presence of an ancient bridge, possibly associated with the Lydians and the Persians, and the Royal Road, although research specific to the bridge is yet to be made. It is built over Banaz Stream (Banaz Çayı) which later joins Büyük Menderes River and the locality is called Clandras or Klandras.

The ancient site of Pepuza, proclaimed as new Jerusalem in the traditions of Montanism, sometimes referred to as the lost sect of Christianity (mid-2nd century) is located within the boundaries of Karahallı district, and is an important visitor's attraction.

Another important ancient construction is Cılandıras Bridge over Banaz Stream.

In Ottoman times, the township was an important center for textile products, made especially of wool woven following Turkish traditions. Weaving activity is still pursued in an intensive manner with the presence of more than a thousand electric power looms across the district.

Cultivation of grapes intended for production of wine in the nearby center of Bekilli is also an important economic activity.

The region of Karahallı experienced considerable levels of outside immigration in recent decades, both towards other centers of its region and towards Europe. People who originate in Karahallı and live outside the district now outnumber those living in Karahallı.

Among notable natives is Azra Akın, Miss World in 2002, herself born in the Netherlands, but whose father, the former Eskişehirspor player Nazmi Akın, is from Karahallı.

Conference addresses issue of wrong-way drivers, distracted drivers
Traffic Safety Conference gets underway in SA
It is a topic that has been hashed and rehashed; wrong-way drivers and distracted drivers in San Antonio. Experts at this year's Traffic Safety Conference, being held in San Antonio this week, are hoping to find solutions to the all too-common problem.
According to statistics, an average of 3,000 Texans die each year while on the road. Close to 90,000 are seriously injured in car accidents each year.
"These [numbers] are not just something we should accept as a society as a cost of mobility," said Robert Wunderlich, who is director at the Center for Transportation Safety at the Texas A&M Transportation Institute. "We think that every crash is preventable."
From engineers to law enforcement officers to the Texas Department of Transportation; the meeting features a brain trust of experts looking work together to solve the issues of transportation safety.
For Katie Womack, a researcher for the Texas A&M Transportation Institute, it starts with the person behind the wheel.
"One of the things we found is that people tend to underestimate the amount of time they take their eyes off the road in order to read or send a text," said Womack.
Driving at 30 mph and looking down for only 5 seconds would mean a driver would travel a distracted 220 feet. At 60 mph, a driver would travel 440 feet without looking at the road.
Many drivers also take on a cocky disposition, believing other drivers are the problem and not them. According to Womack, statistics showed that 44 percent of drivers admitted to texting and driving, while they believed that 89 percent of other drivers were guilty of the same offense.
Most participants in the study also viewed cellphone use for talking while driving as being common and acceptable.
Meanwhile, wrong-way drivers remained a hot-button issue for South Texas. According to Troy Walden, who heads up the Crash Analysis team at the Texas A&M Transportation Institute, well-placed, lit signage, which has become common on many San Antonio freeway exit ramps, is proving helpful statewide.
Some San Antonians have even suggested spike strips for exit ramps to keep a driver from entering the freeway the wrong way.
"I don't believe [spike strips are viable]. The reason being because now you may have an individual who's intoxicated and now has a disabled vehicle," said Walden. "We've increased the potential for a crash to occur by flattening those tires."
The experts agreed it is going to take a change in driving culture to curb the distracted-driver and wrong-way-driving issues.

2. Pour pancake mix, butter, milk, and eggs into a bowl and mix just until combined.
4. Place strawberry slices on top of the batter, followed by the cream cheese cubes.
TIP: I also like to brush a little butter on top as soon as I take it out of the oven, it softens the too and gives a pretty sheen.
I followed the recipe pretty closely except I added more sugar because I used unsweetened cocoa and I also used milk and semi sweet chips. To keep the chips from sinking to the bottom, I dusted them with flour before mixing them in.

Albert Alexander Cochrane Le Souef (17 April 1828 – 7 May 1902) was an Australian zoologist.

Le Souef was the director of the Melbourne Zoo from 1882 to 1902. In 1853 he married Caroline, daughter of ornithologist John Cotton. Their sons included the zoologists Ernest Albert Le Souef, Dudley Le Souef and Albert Sherbourne Le Souef. His full title was "Director of the Zoological and Acclimatisation Society of Victoria" and he was the son of William Le Souef of Kent, England, where he was born in 1828.

He was of French descent, his forefathers were exiled Huguenots who sought refuge in England after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes by Louis XIV, in 1685. Leaving their native land for conscience sake, these staunch French Protestants scattered over several counties in England, Mr. Le Souef's ancestors settling in Kent. Although not a native of Victoria, Mr. Le Souef spent nearly the whole of his life in the State, having arrived with his parents in the year 1840, aboard the ship "Eagle".

His education was acquired under private tuition, and in the year 1860 he was engaged in pastoral pursuits. For nearly thirty years, he was an active member of the Victorian Board for the Protection of the Aborigines, and for several years presided over it as its vice-chairman. In 1863, he was appointed Usher of the Black Rod to the Victorian Legislative Council, a position he held for thirty years.

As the duties attendant on that office only occupied about half the year, it was with the cordial assent of the then Chief Secretary, Sir James McCulloch, and the President and members of the Legislative Council, that Mr. Le Souef assumed, in 1870, the honorary secretaryship of the Acclimatisation Society. The name of the society was changed to that of the Zoological and Acclimatisation Society, and from this period the council determined to make their grounds a centre of instruction for the growing population of Melbourne.

On his appointment as hon. secretary in 1870, Mr. Le Souef took up his residence at the Gardens, Royal Park, where he remained until his death in 1902.

Commentaire
Pour les cinq derniers épisodes de la treizième et dernière saison de la série, la voix française d'Hercule Poirot n'est plus celle de Roger Carel, ce dernier ayant ralenti son activité depuis la fin 2010.
C'est Philippe Ariotti, qui prend la relève pour s'occuper de la voix d'Hercule Poirot pour les cinq derniers épisodes de la série.

Alors que le roman ne s'intéresse qu'à la mort du couple Ravencroft des années plus tôt, l'épisode comporte une autre affaire, inédite de l'œuvre d'Agatha Christie, de la mort d'un ancien médecin psychiatre. Poirot mène cette enquête inédite tandis que Ariadne enquête seule sur l'affaire des Ravencroft jusqu'à ce que les deux affaires se retrouvent liées. L'assassin de l'affaire de Poirot tentera de s'en prendre à la fille des Ravencroft et celui-ci sera démasqué et arrêté à la fin.

Accueil
Ben Lawrence, de The Daily Telegraph, attribue au téléfilm une note de 3 étoiles (sur cinq), trouvant le scénario peu crédible et trainant en longueur. Cependant il salue la performance des acteurs, et particulièrement Zoë Wanamaker dans le rôle d'une Ariadne Oliver au style excentrique « bohémien », jurant parfaitement avec le calme et la droiture du Poirot de David Suchet.

Au Royaume-Uni, le téléfilm est regardé par 4,8 millions de téléspectateurs, soit 21,7 % de part d'audience, se plaçant en tête des programmes.

En France, le téléfilm est suivi par 914 000 téléspectateurs, soit 3,7 % de part d'audience, se plaçant  de la soirée.

Nokia Lumia 1520 — сотовый телефон, разработанный компанией Nokia и работающий под управлением операционной системы Windows 10 mobile. Смартфон был представлен 22 октября 2013 года на мероприятии в Абу-Даби. Смартфон оснащён сверхчувствительным 6-дюймовым экраном c разрешением Full HD (1920x1080). Дисплей выполнен по технологии ЖК IPS и защищён прочным стеклом Corning Gorilla Glass 2. Также в аппарате установлен четырёхъядерный процессор с частотой 2,2 GHz. Телефон поддерживает индукционную зарядку по стандарту Qi. Смартфон оснащён основной PureView-камерой с разрешением 20 мегапикселей и системой оптической стабилизации. В аппарате установлено 32 Гб памяти с возможностью расширения картами microSD объёмом до 64 Гб.

Характеристики

Корпус, клавиши
Корпус выполнен из цельного куска прокрашенного в массе поликарбоната. На момент релиза доступны четыре цвета: жёлтый, красный, чёрный, белый. Клавиши сделаны из циркониевой керамики с алмазным напылением. Габаритные размеры: длина — 162,8 мм; ширина — 85,4 мм; толщина — 8,7 мм.

Процессор, память
Смартфон работает на четырёхъядерном процессоре Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 с частотой 2,2 GHz и графическим процессором Qualcomm Adreno 330, объём встроенной оперативной памяти равен 2 Гб.
Объём встроенной памяти составляет 32 Гб. Пользователю доступно порядка 29 Гб и ещё 15 Гб в облачном хранилище OneDrive. Слот для карт памяти до 64 Гб присутствует.
При этом опытным путем было проверено, что смартшет(смартфон с функциями планшета, далее смартшет) умеет поддерживать и 128Гб дополнительной памяти.

Экран
В Lumia 1520 установлен IPS-экран с разрешением Full HD (1920x1080) и соотношением сторон 16:9. Помимо этого, в экране смартфона имеется поляризационный слой «ClearBlack», что позволяет избежать выцветания экрана и повысить его читаемость на солнце. Экран защищен закаленным стеклом Gorilla Glass 2 со скругленными краями.

Связь
Lumia 1520 оснащена модулем 4G и 3G, NFC. Также имеется модуль Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, поддержка DLNA, устройство может выступать в роли роутера с помощью функции «Общий интернет» (Wi-Fi HotSpot), поддерживается Bluetooth 4.0 и USB v2.0

Индукционная зарядка, питание
Телефон поддерживает беспроводную индукционную зарядку по стандарту Qi. Смартфон может быть размещен на специальном зарядном устройстве и заряжаться без подключения проводом. Кроме того, существуют дополнительные аксессуары с функцией беспроводной зарядки, такие, как колонка JBL PowerUp (Nokia MD-100w) и беспроводная зарядная подставка Nokia DT-910.

Камера
При использовании штатного приложения «Nokia Камера» обеспечивается три режима съемки. Первый режим — JPEG (5 Мп). В двух других разрешение снимков варьируется в зависимости от выбранного соотношения сторон — 4:3 или 16:9. Таким образом, можно выбрать ещё режим «JPEG (5 Мп) + JPEG (19 Мп или 16 Мп)» и «JPEG (5 Мп) + DNG (19 Мп или 16 Мп)». Таким образом, впервые в смартфонах линейки Lumia реализована работа с RAW. В форматах 4:3 и 16:9 камера выдает «малые JPEGи» примерно на 5 Мп, но при этом соотношение сторон у них разное — 2592х1936 (5,0 Мп) и 3072х1728 (5,3 Мп), соответственно. У «хайрезов» размер в формате 4:3 — 4992х3744 (18,69 Мп), а в 16:9 — 5376х3024 (16,25 Мп).

Сенсор
В основной камере 20.7 Мп BSI CMOS-матрица формата 1/2,5 дюйма с разрешением 5376х3744 точек.

Линза
Как и в модели Lumia 1020, увеличилось и количество линз с пяти до шести, используемых в объективе. Объектив Carl Zeiss Tessar имеет фиксированное фокусное расстояние 26 мм и максимальную диафрагму f/2.4 — одну из самых широких в камерофонах.

Вспышка
Двойная светодиодная вспышка. В смартфоне применяется оптическая стабилизация второго поколения.

ПО
В Lumia 1520 появились и нововведения по режимам. Во-первых, возможность снимать два фото одновременно: полноразмерное (точнее, 16 Мп формата 16:9), и в разрешении 5 Мп для выкладывания в социальные сети. Вместо Pro Camera появилось Nokia Camera, объединяющее Pro Camera и Smart Camera; помимо привычных ручных настроек (ISO, Баланс Белого, Экспозиция и так далее), предлагает уникальную функцию — ручную настройку фокусировки.

Операционная система
Nokia Lumia 1520 во время первого запуска(после покупки) работает под управлением операционной системы Windows Phone 8 c предустановленным обновлением Lumia Black. Далее на смену приходит обновление: Lumia Denim  и потом появляется обновлениеWindows Phone 8.1. Об процессе обновления до  Windows 10 Mobile будет рассказано в отдельном сегменте статьи. Как и все остальные телефоны Lumia, Lumia 1520 продается с предустановленными эксклюзивными приложениями Nokia.
В российской версии предустановлены приложения Nokia Транспорт, Nokia Карты, Nokia Навигатор и Музыка Nokia. Остальные приложения могут быть загружены в специальном разделе Магазина — Эксклюзивы Nokia.

Новые функции в обновлении Lumia Black
Помимо того, что с обновлением GDR 3 Windows Phone 8 стал поддерживать Full HD-экраны и 4-ядерные процессоры, появилось ещё несколько функций. В режиме многозадачности появилась возможность закрыть определенную программу нажатием пиктограммы [X]. Также появилась опция отключения поворота экрана, что может быть полезно в определенных ситуациях. На телефонах с диагональю, большей, чем 5 дюймов, к двум столбцам плиток на главном экране теперь можно добавить третий столбец.

Новые функции в обновлении Lumia Denim
Добавилась функция активации голосового помощника Cortana фразой «Hey, Cortana!». Также Cortana сможет отслеживать ваше местоположение и определять географические области, в которых вы находитесь. А также пользователи получили масштабные изменения и нововведения в области программного обеспечения камеры. Согласно уверениям Microsoft, приложение Камера стала работать гораздо быстрее, кроме того, увеличилась скорость создания снимка. С обновлением появилась возможность снимать видео в разрешении 4K и делать снимки одновременно. Также пользователь сможет извлечь отдельные фотографии из уже снятого видео.

Обновление до Windows 10 Mobile.

Как вы уже все знаете Nokia Lumia 1520 была среди устройств которые поддерживались операционной системой: Windows 10 Mobile.

При этом у пользователей часто возникал вопрос как обновить свой смартфон до актуальной версии ОС.

Честно говоря метод обновления до Windows 10 Mobile, был выбран крайне неоднозначный. Потому что обновление по воздуху прилетали не сразу.

Для начала пользователь должен был установить помощник по обновлению до Windows 10 Mobile.  потом пользователю предлагалось проверить совместимость устройства с ОС  Windows 10 Mobile. И только после этого когда пользователь проверял совместимость ему предлагалось дать разрешение на получение обновления "по воздуху"(OTA.).

Далее после получения обновления возникали новые сложности. Иногда процесс обновления телефона проходил минимум 8 часов .

Критика
Несмотря на то, что в телефоне установлен модуль Wi-Fi стандарта AC и поддерживается работа в 5Ghz, телефон способен работать только на следующих каналах: 165,161,157,153,149, хотя эти каналы запрещены к использованию на территории РФ.

L'alzinar menorquí és el bosc més important a Menorca i pertany a l'associació vegetal Cyclamini-Quercetum. Es tracta d'un bosc dens i ombrívol dominat per l'alzina (Quercus ilex), un arbre de 10 a 15 metres d'alçària adaptat a suportar condicions de moderada sequedat. L'interior del bosc és molt humit i està ocupat per gran nombre d'arbusts, que formen un sotabosc dens. Una característica de l'alzinar balear és que el sotabosc no és tan espès com el dels alzinars litorals peninsulars. A més, hi manquen determinats arbusts molts característics d'aquell, com el marfull (Viburnum tinus), a causa d'una forta sequera estiuenca.

La presència del sotabosc crea quatre estrats situats a diferents alçades:
 El superior, el formen les capçades de les alzines.
 L'intermedi té una alçària d'entre 1,5 i 3 metres i està format per l'arbocer (Arbutus unedo), el llampúgol (Rhamnus alaternus), el fals aladern (Phyllirea latifolia) i la mata (Pistacea lentiscus).
 A aquests arbusts s'afegeixen plantes enfiladisses i lianes com l'heura (Hedera helix), els didalets o gavarrera (Lonicera implexa), el gatmaimó (Tamus communis) i la vidalba (Clematis cirrhosa).
 Per sota hi ha un altre estrat de 50 a 100 centímetres d'alçària, format per les cireres de Nadal (Ruscus aculeatus), l'esparreguera (Asparagus acutifolius) i la falguera (Asplenium onopteris), entre altres plantes.

Aquesta superposició de capes fa que arribi molt poca llum al sòl i, per tant, l'estrat herbaci és molt pobre. Entre les escasses herbes que es fan a l'alzinar cal destacar la rapa porquera o patata morenera (Cyclamen balearicum) i Carex halleriana var. bracteosa.

Distribució
De forma natural ocuparia totes les àrees de l'illa amb sòls profunds i ben formats, però actualment només hi ha alzinars de certa extensió als voltants del Toro. A la resta de l'illa se'n troben petites taques relictuals.

L'acció humana
Tradicionalment, l'ésser humà ha utilitzat l'alzinar com a lloc de pastura dels porcs i per a l'obtenció de carbó vegetal. L'activitat humana ha provocat l'eliminació de part del sotabosc, i ha donat lloc a un procés d'aridificació que ha permès la invasió de l'alzinar per espècies pròpies dels espais molt il·luminats, com el càrritx (Ampelodesmos mauritanica), els pins blancs (Pinus halepensis), el bruc boal (Erica arborea) en terrenys silícics, o el bruc d'hivern (Erica multiflora) en terrenys calcaris. Es crea així un bosc mixt del qual finalment poden acabar desapareixent les alzines. Queda llavors un pinar que a davall té una marina de bruc en terrenys silícics o una marina de xipell i romaní en terrenys calcaris. Aquest és actualment el tipus de bosc més estès a Menorca.

You Remember Machachari's 'Mama Stella? See What Happened To Her As She Asks For Help
nairobian April 19, 2021
Former Machachari actress 'Mama Stella' has appealed to Kenyans of goodwill to help her raise Sh150,000 to cater to her medical expenses and upkeep. Real name Clara Wamaitha, alias Cindy, she played the role of an irresponsible mother to Stella, who was also a drunkard. Speaking in a YouTube interview with Hiram Maina, the mother of two detailed her struggles living with vitiligo, a condition in which the skin loses its pigment cells, resulting in discolored patches.
"Before the show ended, I spotted some slight coloring on my hand. I wasn't keen on my skin but later on, I came to regret it," she said. She said medication has become a burden for her and her family, causing her to fall into depression. "I have gone to all the hospitals and spent a lot. My daughter funded that. At times I became depressed since I knew that with the skin change, there was going to be no shows for me," she said. "I would like to set up a business that will make me a bit stable." Reflecting on her time on the show, she thanked fans for their love.
"I cannot brag as being the best actress who played 'Mama Stella' since there was someone else before me, but I attribute my success to all my fans," she said. "Some people have wanted to beat me in the streets because of the role. For example, kuna time nilikula fees ya Stella, karibu watu wanichape kwa streets." She said since then she became careful and would avoid going out of the house any weekend as there were people who did not understand that was just a role. "For one to deliver good acting, you have to create a good rapport with other characters," she said.
"Machachari built me and although I used to cause trouble with my role. I am a good mother to my children." She said she will encourage other young people to do even better than her. After the show, she started a production business until corona hit the country. "Everyone in that show built each other. There was love in that show. After Machachari, life has not been easy," she said. "During that time, I could take loans but now, nothing. I can't since I do not have any income-generating business. My daughter graduated with a first-class honours degree in forensic science. She is a fingerprint expert and my son is also a graduate."

As the seat of the Dutch government (but not the official capitol city, which is Amsterdam), The Hague is also a worldwide political center, hosting more than 150 international organizations. The Hague is located near the coast of the North Sea, with the historic city center anchoring the city's cultural life to this day.
Eindhoven lies to the south of the Netherlands, in the historic Brabant region. The city is a high-tech hub, with many biomedical, technology, and engineering companies calling Eindhoven home.


Ken Dow Announces for the State Senate seat currently being held by Republican Sen. Steven Saland.
On Tuesday, February 26, Ken Dow, former Columbia County Democratic Chairman and former Columbia County Elections Commissioner , announced his candidacy for New York State Senate, 41st District, Columbia and Dutchess Counties. The announcement took place on the front steps of the Columbia County Courthouse.
I am seeking this office for many reasons, but above all, because for the last several decades, the strains and burdens on regular working people and their families have grown greater and greater, with no serious progress toward their resolution. We live in a time of both promise and challenge, and it calls on us to move forward with vision and courage. As your State Senator I will work to provide the leadership, vigor and priorities necessary to unlock the opportunity that should be the birthright of every New Yorker. It's time to get New York moving again.
One, of course, is to be an advocate for the interests of his or her constituents.
Another is to be a guardian and steward—of our laws, our land, our opportunities and our freedom, and our future.
A third is to lead.
The issues that most directly affect our lives and futures are difficult and complex—education, taxes, jobs, health care, energy, environment and climate, to name a few---and we need to face them with the intelligence, determination, and immediacy that they require. Charting a wise and fair course through such crucial matters--dealing with the major issues that shape our lives--should be the fundamental duty of our elected representatives, but it is often neglected in favor of easier and more ingratiating political pursuits. The result: in so many important matters, New York is standing still. We can't stand still any longer. We need political leaders with a new sense of duty.
My purpose and commitment is to provide true leadership forward. I will work to earn your trust and support, and I look forward to serving you as State Senator from the 41st District.

We met online in August 2006 and after having what we both consider the best phone conversation we've ever had, at just over 3 hours, we made a date.
Our first date ended with each of us telling our friends we had just gone on the best first date ever (Tristan) and the worst first date ever (Raleigh). After Raleigh decided she just wanted to be friends, we stayed in touch and reconnected in May 2007 hanging out in the cloud room at The Camlin in downtown Seattle with Tristan's buddy Darin talking about the highlights of the internet. It was at this point that we realized we liked hanging out with each other.
With Tristan commuting from Bainbridge to Seattle everyday, Raleigh would stay with him ever weekend dubbing her a "part-time Kitsap resident". Raleigh grew up in Ballard thinking that across the water consisted of cabins and bears, not realizing there was life including Tristan. We moved in together in 2008 into our beloved first apartment in Greenwood.
After all these years, countless vacations, jokes, triumphs and loss, we both realized we didn't want to face the future without each other in it. Tristan proposed while on a bike ride in Vancouver BC in May 2014.
Our first vacation together to Lake Crescent, September 2007.

Paying People to Lie to You Has Consequences

Dan Senor talks of a "systemic" crisis in right-wing polling that misled the Romney campaign.
"There is some kind of systemic crisis today in the world of polling, I think particularly on the right-of-center polling. The modeling was way off," Senor said during an appearance on MSNBC's Morning Joe." How pollsters on the Republican side, although not just on the Republican side, you saw Gallup make similar mistakes, you saw Rasmussen make similar mistakes. The understanding, the assumptions made about what the electorate looked like was way off."
With due respect to Dan, a smart & conscientious guy, the crisis is not in the world of right-of-center polling. It's in the world of right-of-center poll consumers. What Gallup and Rasmussen did was assume that minorities must be disenchanted with Obama. That's not polling science, it's punditry -and as we now see, it was bad punditry.
Gallup and Rasmussen built their assumption about minority attitudes into their modeling of the electorate, and thus predicted a better performance for Romney than almost anybody else.
The readiness of conservatives to accept the Gallup and Rasmussen numbers, and to reject pollsters who modeled the electorate on the assumption that the 1980-2008 trends would continue in 2012, was based on emotion, not analysis.
What happened to the pollsters was nothing more complicated than the old programmer rule: Garbage In, Garbage Out.
What happened at Romney HQ was a sadder phenomenon, familiar to every movie star and billionaire: if you pay people to lie to you, you'll hear a lot of lies.

, a learned popish divine, but of great fickleness in his principles, was born in Worcestershire in 1500, and educated at Oxford. In 1527 he was admitted a probationary fellow of Mer ton-college, took the degree of M. A. in 1530, and was elected registrar of the university the year following. He afterwards became rector of Cuxham in Oxfordshire, principal of St. Alban'shail, divinity-reader of Magdalen-college, regius professor of divinity, and took his doctor's degree in that faculty. | In 1537, he was made master of Wittington-college in London, of which he was deprived in the reign of Edward VI. In the first year of this reign, he recanted his opinions at St. Paul's-cross, yet was obliged to resign his professorship at Oxford, in which he was succeeded by the celebrated reformer Peter Martyr, with whom he had afterwards a controversy. From Oxford he went first to St. Andrew's in Scotland, and thenceto Paris, in 1550, and from Paris to Lovaine, where he was complimented with the professorship of theology.
On the accession of queen Mary, he returned to England, was restored to his professorship, made canon of Christ-church, and chaplain to her majesty. One of his principal appearances on record was at Oxford, where, when the bishops Ridley and Latimer were brought to the stake, he preached a sermon on the text, "If I give my body to be burnt, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing." This discourse, which lasted only about a quarter of an hour, was replete with invectives against the two martyrs, and gross assertions, which they offered to refute on the spot, but were not permitted. He was also one of the witnesses against archbishop Cranmer, who had done him many acts of friendship in the preceding reign. For this conduct he was deprived of all his preferments when queen Elizabeth came to the throne in 1559, and was committed to the custody of archbishop Parker, by whose persuasion he recanted part of what he had written in defence of the celibacy of the clergy. He then contrived to make his escape, and went to Doway in Flanders, where he obtained the deanery of St. Peter's church, and a professorship. He died in 1563. He wrote about sixteen tracts in favour of popery, some of which were answered by Peter Martyr. A list of them may be seen in Dodd or Wood. They are partly in Latin and partly in English, the latter printed in London, and the former at Lovaine.
