sedimentary rock summary
Limestones originate mainly through the lithification of loose carbonate sediments. Modern carbonate sediments are generated in a variety of environments: continental, marine, and transitional, but most are marine. The present-day Bahama banks is the best known modern carbonate setting. It is a broad submarine shelf covered by shallow, warm seawater. The Bahama shelf, or carbonate platform, mimics the setting that repeatedly prevailed across the stable cratonic areas of the major continental blocks during late Precambrian, Paleozoic, and Mesozoic time and serves as a model for explaining the various limestone types that make up such ancient carbonate successions.
The edge of the shelf is marked by a topographically sharp escarpment flanked by coarse, angular limestone breccia. Submarine channels etched into the escarpment serve as waterways down which shallow-water carbonate sediment can be transported by turbidity currents capable of redistributing them as apronlike deposits on the oceanic abyssal plain. In many areas, the fringe of the Bahama banks is marked by wave-resistant reef rocks (sometimes classified as boundstone). Abrasion of these reefs by wave activity generates abundant skeletal debris. Variations in depth and current strength control the relative amounts of micrite and sparite, the prevalence of specific organisms and their productivity, and the likelihood of generating oöids, pellets, and carbonate rock fragments. Micrite and micritic allochemical sediments accumulate in deep-water, low-energy, protected areas like lagoons and tidal flats and on the leeward side of major islands. In high-energy, shallow-water locales such as beaches, coastal dunes, and tidal channels, currents winnow out any micrite, and these become the sites of sparry allochemical sediment deposition. Pinpointing the exact depositional setting for an ancient carbonate deposit requires detailed analysis of its texture, composition, sedimentary structures, geometry, fossil content, and stratigraphic relationships with modern carbonate depositional sites.
In addition to the ancient analogues of the modern carbonate deposits described above are freshwater limestones (marls) and limestone muds (or calcilutites) of deep-water abyssal plains. Freshwater limestones of limited extent represent a spectrum of small-scale settings developed within and along the margins of lacustrine basins. Deep-water abyssal plain limestones are quite restricted in volume and age in the geologic record for a number of reasons. First of all, abyssal plain sequences are less likely to be incorporated into the orogenic belts that develop as continental margins are compressed during ocean basin closure. Second, pelagic calcareous oozes are the obvious modern analogues of ancient abyssal plain calcilutites. These oozes are produced by aragonite-secreting plankton that float near the surface (such as foraminiferans and coccoliths), which upon their death leave their shells, or tests, to settle slowly to the ocean bottom and accumulate. The development of such deep-sea deposits is therefore obviously dependent on the existence of calcium-secreting planktonic organisms, and these did not evolve until Mesozoic time. Finally, calcareous ooze accumulation is severely restricted both by latitude (being largely confined to a band extending 30° to 40° north and south of the Equator) and abyssal plain depth (approximately 2,000 metres). Below a depth of about 4,500 metres, which is the carbonate compensation depth (CCD), the pressure and temperature of seawater produces a rate of dissolution in excess of the rate of pelagic test accumulation.
Dolomite is produced by dolomitization, a diagenetic process in which the calcium carbonate minerals aragonite and calcite are recrystallized and converted into the mineral dolomite. Dolomitization can obscure or even obliterate all or part of the original limestone textures and structures; in the case where such original features survive, carbonate nomenclature and interpretation can still be applied to the rock with emphasis on the effects of alteration.
The exact processes by which limestones are dolomitized are not thoroughly understood, but dolomites occur widely in the geologic record. The relative proportion of dolomite to limestone progressively increases with age in carbonate rocks. This secular trend probably either reflects the earlier existence of geochemical settings that were more favourable to dolomitization or is the logical result of the fact that the likelihood for a limestone to undergo dolomitization increases proportionally with its age.
Geochemists have been unable to precipitate normal dolomite under the conditions of temperature and pressure that exist in nature; temperatures within the 200 °C range are required to support precipitation. A few modern, so-called primary marine dolomite localities have been studied, but close investigation of these areas suggests that even these penecontemporaneous dolomites are produced by altering calcite or aragonite almost immediately after their initial precipitation. Dolomites generated by later alteration of older limestones are known as diagenetic dolomites.
The study of the few reported penecontemporaneous dolomite sites allows some conclusions to be formed regarding the dolomitization process. These modern dolomites develop mainly under conditions of high salinity (hypersalinity), which commonly exist in arid regions across supratidal mud flats as well as on the flat, saline plains and playa lake beds known as sabkhas. In highly saline environments, the ratio of dissolved magnesium ions to dissolved calcium ions progressively increases above the norm for seawater (5:1) as a result of the selective formation of calcium-rich evaporite minerals like gypsum and anhydrite. These magnesium-rich brines then tend to be flushed downward owing to their high density; the entire process is named evaporative reflux. Penecontemporaneous dolomites would result from the positioning of sabkhas and arid supratidal flats in a site that is in immediate contact with carbonate sediment; diagenetic dolomites would logically result when such dolomite-producing settings overlie older limestone deposits. The presence of fissures or highly permeable zones serving as channelways for downward percolation of dolomitizing fluids would also promote the alteration. Other studies have emphasized a possible role in dolomitization for dense brackish (salty) fluids formed when seawater and meteoric waters (those precipitated from the atmosphere as rain or snow) are produced along coastal zones.

Patients with an at-risk mental state for psychosis gradually lost hippocampal volume as analyzed with MRI even though only about half of them progressed to full psychosis, according to a longitudinal study published in Schizophrenia Research.
Cognitive therapy in help-seeking young people at risk for psychosis did not reduce the likelihood of transitioning to psychosis, but it did reduce the frequency and intensity of symptoms in those who transitioned during the course of a multisite, randomized controlled trial.
School staff can play an important role in helping children with psychotic disorders live more normal lives, according to Dr. Jonathan R. Stevens and Dr. Jefferson B. Prince.

Welcome to the Staking Rails subforum of the Marketplace. It is necessary that you read the "Marketplace Rules" as they apply here as well.
How does it work? We aren't going to be moving threads from the other Staking forums to here. The idea is that once your Staking thread is sold out, you notify us so we can mark it **CLOSED** so everyone knows it's sold out (using the report button in YOUR thread -- not THIS thread). If you want people to be able to track your progress, you start a thread here and link it back to your sale thread. When the stake is complete, if you want to post about payments, etc, that should go back in your original thread.
1) This forum is for rail threads for stakes and shares bought and sold on 2+2 only.
2) All sales of tournament staking shares on 2+2 belong in the Staking - Selling Shares forum. Threads seeking cash game stakes and long-term stakes and threads offering stakes belong in the Staking forum.
3) All rail threads should include a link to the relevant stake/share sale thread. Ideally, that thread would also have a link to your rail thread.

German LinkedIn rival Xing is rebranding as 'New Work,' acquires recruitment platform Honeypot for up to $64M
Interesting moves in the global Talent acquisition tech market. On one hand this maps to the specialization by industry (tech) and geography (Germany) of HR tech providers. But, will Xing make a play to scale globally?
From TechCrunch:
Xing, the business networking platform that has been described as Germany's answer to LinkedIn, has made an acquisition to beef up its recruitment business ahead of a rebrand of the business as "New Work." The company has acquired Honeypot, a German startup that has built a job-hunting platform for tech people, for up to €57 million ($64 million). Xing tells us that Honeypot is its biggest acquisition to date.The figure includes the acquisition (€22 million) plus a potential earn-out of up to €35 million if certain targets are met in the next three years.

is a retired Japanese professional shogi player, ranked 7-dan.

Early life
Kobayashi was born on December 18, 1962, in Tamaki, Mie.  He was accepted into the Japan Shogi Association's apprentice school as a student of shogi professional Kazuo Manabe at the rank of 6-kyū in 1978, was promoted to the rank of apprentice professional 1-dan in 1981, and obtained full professional status and the rank of 4-dan in 1983.

Shogi professional
Kobayashi defeated Yasumitsu Satō to win the 11th  in 1992. The victory stopped Satō from winning the tournament three years in a row.

Kobayashi finished the finished 69th Meijin Class C2 league play (April 2010March 2011) with a record of 2 wins and 8 losses, earning a second demotion point which meant he was only one point away from automatic demotion to "Free Class" play. As a result, he declared his intention to the Japan Shogi Association to become a Free Class player as of April 2011 rather than risk automatic demotion.

Kobayashi retired from professional shogi on April 19, 2022.

Personal life
Kobayashi has been an avid mountain climber since his junior high school days.

Promotion history
The promotion history for Kobayashi is as follows:
 1978: 6-kyū
 1981: 1-dan
 1983, August 3: 4-dan
 1989, May 19: 5-dan
 1995, November 29: 6-dan
 2009, November 25: 7-dan
2022, April 19: Retired

Titles and other championships
Kobayashi has never appeared in a major title match, but he has won one non-title shogi championships during his career.

Awards and honors
Kobayashi received the JSA's "25 Years Service Award" in 2009 in recognition of being an active professional for twenty-five years.

Q: Android emulator won't work in ubuntu I don't understand why all of a sudden such a problem is occurring on my desktop. Although I already have 14.04 LTS Ubuntu which is 64-bit, but still such an error is occurring. Though it was working fine, till yesterday. Please help me out.
Cannot launch AVD in emulator.
Output:
ERROR: 32-bit Linux Android emulator binaries are DEPRECATED, to use them
   you will have to do at least one of the following:
   - Use the '-force-32bit' option when invoking 'emulator'.
   - Set ANDROID_EMULATOR_FORCE_32BIT to 'true' in your environment.
   Either one will allow you to use the 32-bit binaries, but please be
   aware that these will disappear in a future Android SDK release.
   Consider moving to a 64-bit Linux system before that happens.

STATE/COUNTY: Florida/Miami-Dade County Courthouse
DATE OF VERDICT: May 13, 2008
NAME OF CASE: LETICIA ARNAU, by and through her legal guardian and next friend, GLADYS ARNAU vs. DANIEL A. MARTINEZ-URTARTE, M.D.; INPHYNET CONTRACTING SERVICES, INC., etc., et al.
COUNSEL FOR PLAINTIFFS: Mitchell J. Zidell of J.H. Zidell, P.A., of Miami Beach.
COUNSEL FROM McGRANE, NOSICH & GANZ, P.A.: James J. Nosich and Justin Arnold.
AGE/SEX/OCCUPATION OF PLAINTIFF: 19-year old female who was a student and working at a fast food restaurant.
CLIENT OF McGRANE, NOSICH & GANZ: Emergency Department Physician, Daniel Martinez-Urtarte, M.D.
CAUSE OF ACTION: Alleged Failure to Timely Diagnose Signs and Symptoms of a Stroke.
The Plaintiff alleged that the stroke, which sent a 19-year-old female into a persistent vegetative state for the last seven years prior to trial, resulted from medical malpractice on the part of the emergency department physician who treated her following a fall. Specifically, the plaintiff claimed that the fall was due to neurological deficits and the emergency department physician failed to recognize the deficits as being related to the early signs of a stroke. The cause of the stroke was later thought to have been caused by a syndrome of constriction in the carotid artery supplying blood to the brain. The defendant maintained that the patient was properly evaluated for trauma associated with the fall.
DAMAGES: The stroke left the plaintiff in a persistent vegetative state. She has been kept alive for the prior seven years on a ventilator and required 24-hour nursing care. Plaintiff's life care plan was estimated at $11 million.
VERDICT: Defense verdict.
COMMENTS BY JIM NOSICH: It was believed that there was no way to overcome the sympathy involved in a case with a young girl in a vegetative state. I believe jury selection was the key to the defense verdict.
