The San Lorenzo Zustinian class were a class of at least twenty-nine 70-gun third rate ships of the line built by the Venetian Arsenale from 1691 to 1746, in three different series with minor changes in the ships' length. It was the most numerous class of ship of the line built in Venice, and the last to see active service in a war against the Ottoman Empire in 1718. All this class' ships were planned before 1720, and the vast majority was launched before the Peace of Passarowitz. The last four vessels were completed to 70% in 1720s, then stored in the roofed shipbuilding docks of the Arsenale to be finished and launched between 1739 and 1746, a solution that was widely used with the following Leon Trionfante-class.

Those class ships were the first to enter service under the Venetian classification standards, devised by the Ammiraglio dell'Arsenal Stefano Antipa in 1694. In 1696, the Sol d'Oro, a vessel of this class, was the first ship launched with standardized colours in the Venetian sailing fleet.

Background and design
After the losses of the ships San Marco Grande, Sant'Iseppo and Monton d'Oro weakened the Armada Grossa, the Senate decided lo launch two more (Venetian) first rate vessels. Those two ships, ordered in 1690, were intended to be part of the Giove Fulminante-class, and had to copy the waterlines of Costanza Guerriera, built by Iseppo Depieri di Piero some years before. Actually, only the first vessel, the Leon Coronato, built again by Depieri, respected those intentions: the second, baptized San Lorenzo Zustinian, was built by Stefano de Zuanne de Michiel and turned out to be quite different.

Although its design was derived from the previous class, the ship was bigger, having a beam of 38 Venetian feet (13.20 m), a keel length of 115 Ven. feet (39.95 m) and a normal draught of 16.55 Ven. feet (5.75 m). Moreover, it could embark 70 guns instead of 68, carrying at first 4 culverins and 24 20-pounder guns on the gundeck, 4 culverins and 24 14-pounder guns on the upper gundeck, 12 12-pounder guns on the quarterdeck and 2 14-pounder culverins on the forecastle. Being larger and longer than the Giove Fulminante, the San Lorenzo was more stable, and could also exit from Malamocco with the complete armament on board. For all these reasons, it was considered the first and namesake of a new ship of the line class, the most numerous ever built in the Arsenal.

Ships

First batch (1690–94)

Second batch (1695–1708)

Third batch (1714–1717)

Construction and developments
The San Lorenzo Zustinian was built with the traditional "single frame" technique used at the time in the Venetian Arsenal, but with thicker pieces: the main frames were 22 cm thick instead of the 17 cm of the Giove Fulminante-class.
This experimental vessel was met with overall applause, and with a decree dated 19 December 1693 the Senate ordered to take her as model for new first rates construction. Stefano de Zuanne de Michiel, its designer and builder, was instructed to build another one with the same measures, that was eventually baptized Stella Maris, and two other vessels were ordered and laid down.

After the Battle of Chios (1694), the Venetian fleet, that lost in the fight two of her four most powerful vessels, the Leon Coronato and the newly built Stella Maris, found herself into a severe shortage of battleship. To answer this issue, the Senate ordered the immediate laying down of four new first rate vessel, built on the measures of the San Lorenzo but able to carry the newly designed 30-pounder guns on the gundeck and 20-pounders on the upper gundeck. To meet these requirements, the ships length was increased to 118 Venetian feet (41.03 m), thus originating the second batch of the San Lorenzo-class. Those ships structures was further strengthened, in order to sustain the stronger concussion of bigger guns, by inserting reinforcement ribbings between the frames under the waterline, a solution originally implemented on the captured Ottoman vessels Sant'Alvise, Santissima Annunziata and San Marco Grande in 1651.

Vessels of this batch were built throughout the following 13 years – the last was ordered in 1708 – and their aging design led to new problems. In the final stages of the Morean War, the San Lorenzo-class vessels, at the time the larger ships in Venetian service, started to embark 50-pounder guns on their gundecks. Moreover, part of those ships, finished in a great hurry during the war, were built with not properly seasoned wood, and deteriorated quickly. The need to sustain the stress of more powerful guns, and the arguments over the resistance of Venetian vessels born out of many cases of hogging in mothballed ships led shipbuilders to reinforce the internal structures of new vessels, and increase their frames thickness to 28.2 cm. The results were evident in the Colomba d'Oro and the Grand'Alessandro: being heavier, they drew more, and turned out to be slow in any wind condition.

To solve this problem, in 1702 Fabio Bonvicini, that had been Capitano Ordinario delle Navi during the war and was now a Senate member, proposed to build longer ships with thicker frames, able to carry 50-pounder guns, with reduced beam and smaller decks height. Only in 1708, winning the opposition of Arsenal's master builders, was laid down a ship that corresponded to Bonvicini suggestion, the Corona, launched in November 1711, but, due to arguments over the danger posed by rough sea to the big first rate ships, it was not replicated.

In the summer of 1714, when the Ottoman-Venetian War of 1714–1718 was about to start, the consistence of the Armata Grossa was reduced to only 22 vessels, mostly second and third rates. To reinforce the naval forces that were about to clash with a 40 vessels strong Ottoman fleet, the works ongoing on the last four vessels of the second batch were accelerated. As those ships were launched, six new first-rates were ordered and laid down in the Arsenal: they were still inspired by the San Lorenzo, but modified according to Bonvicini's notes. Those new vessels, able to carry 50-pounder guns on the gundeck and 30-pounders on the upper gundeck, had a keel length of 122 Venetian feet (42.38 m) and formed the third batch of the class.

Argent: First Get Yourself On The Telly!
WHATEVER GETS SAID about hit singles and Top Of The Pops, there's no denying that they still form the most powerful tonic that a British group can get off on. Take Argent for instance. They were a successful band doing the rounds and pulling in the crowds but, for some reason, they had trouble establishing their own identity without getting bogged down in their member's past lives. Also they'd never quite managed to showcase their true sound on an album. To the larger part of the music listening public they were a name, a photograph and something to do with the Zombies.

Buchalter's Growth Highlighted in the Orange County Business Journal's "Law Firm List"
"Among the most notable increases was a 21% jump in attorneys to 47 at the Irvine office of Los Angeles-based No. 13, Buchalter.
'In the last few years, we've hit our stride in terms of becoming a premier full-service business office in Orange County,' said Adam Bass, chief executive of the 241-attorney firm.
He said the firm's OC practice is growing in products liability, corporate mergers, defense and intellectual property.


Whether a writ proceeding is civil or criminal, depends on the nature of relief claimed and grounds for such relief. "Civil Proceedings" or "Criminal Proceedings" are not defined anywhere. The Constitution of India does not define the expression, "Civil Proceeding" nor does the General Clauses Act. The two proceedings are entirely different and distinct, though at times it may overlap to some extent. But the distinction between the civil proceedings and criminal proceedings is well defined.
While we are not inclined to grant special leave at this stage, we, however, record our disapproval of the way in which the learned Single Judge has dealt with the judgment of Hon. M. C. Trivedi, J which dealt with the identical point and which judgment was binding on the learned Judge. It is not open to a learned Single Judge to reject the ratio of the decision of another learned Single Judge of the same High Court by merely saying that attention of M. C. Trivedi J. was not invited to the decision of Supreme Court which may have an impact on the point under examination. Judicial comity demands and this Court has often reiterated that in that event the matter should be referred to a larger HC-NIC Page 7 of 46 Created On Tue Dec 01 01:12:36 IST 2015 Bench. But in this case, learned Judge has observed that he is unable to agree with the view taken by M. C. Trivedi, J. because in his view the question was directly covered by an earlier decision of this Court, That aspect of the matter itself needs examination. Therefore, if the matter at any stage goes back to the High Court and the same question is raised in the interest of justice it should be heard by a Division Bench. Mr. Kaji, learned Advocate for the petitioner made another grievance that the relief was granted in the absence of a pleading in the plaint on the question of tenancy as covered by Section 13(1)(f) of the Bombay Rent Act as applicable in Gujarat. Mr. Arun Mehta, learned Advocate for respondent appearing on caveat conceded that as the matter be remanded to the District Judge, Nadiad, plaintiff will seek permission for appropriate amendment of the plaint. If such an application is made, learned Judge may deal with it according to law and it should not be understood that this Court has directed such an amendment being made.

Harrow fight: Youth mowed down by car as armed gangs brawl in north London street
A youth was mowed down by a car as hooded gangs wielding knives and metal poles brawled in a north London street.
Violence flared as a group of up to 10 youths fought in the street in Harrow on Sunday afternoon.
Shocking footage showed young men, who were dressed in black hooded tracksuits, dodging in and out of traffic during the brawl in Locket Road.
One of them was seen carrying a large wooden piece of furniture in an apparent attempt to shield himself from any blows.
In the video, some of those involved crowd together before a silver Volkswagen car speeds along the road towards them.
Warning: This video might cause distress to some readers
The youths then tried to run away but one of them was hit and sent flying before the vehicle crashed to a halt, wedged between a hedge and a lamppost.
Some of the group then surrounded the car and struck the passenger side door with their weapons before fleeing the scene.
A young man got out of the vehicle and appeared to attack the youth lying on the ground behind the car before running along a side street.
Two police officers arrived at the scene as shocked passers-by gathered on the pavement.

How to Calculate Average Increase

How to Calculate an Average Percent Change
By Bailey Richert
Average increase refers to the average rate of growth that a variable experiences within a given period. You can apply the math and theory behind average increase to many real-life situations, such as speed, finances or population growth. Calculating average growth rate involves basic algebra and is possible as long as there are finite start and end values.
Step 1: Establish the Initial and Final Values
Locate the starting value and final value for a given time period in your situation. Label the starting value as V1 (first value) and label the final value as V2 (second value).
Step 2: Determine the Total Change
Subtract V1 from V2. The equation thus far is: V2-V1.
Step 3: Determine the Percentage Change
Divide the value you determined by V1 to get the total percentage change. The equation now looks like this: (V2-V1)/V1.
Step 4: Determine Percentage Change as a Function of Time
Divide the value you calculated by the total number of units of time change. This can be in any time unit, such as years, hours or minutes. The equation is now: [(V2-V1)/V1]/(time).
Step 5: Determine the Annual Percent Change
Multipy the final value you calculated to determine the annual increase in percent. The final equation becomes then: {[(V2-V1)/V1]/(time)} * 100.
An example of this calculation would be an investment that increases from $50 to $100 in 10 years. V1 is $50. V2 is $100, and the time is 10 years. {[(100-50)/50]/10} * 100 = 10% average increase per year.

When new homes are built, they can be constructed with radon resistant features. Adding these features during the construction process is much less expensive than adding radon-resistant features later on. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the cost of Radon Resistant New Construction is usually between $250 and $750. The cost could be less than $250 if the builder already uses some of the same techniques used for moisture control. The cost of installing a radon mitigation system post construction is between $1200 and $2000.
Homeowners who have radon resistant features in their house should still test their home for radon every 2 years. Test kits can be purchased at Linn County Public Health or at local hardware stores.
All homes and additions to existing homes in unincorporated Linn County must be built using radon-resistant techniques. For many, finding a builder can be difficult, but finding one who uses radon-resistant techniques can be easy. The EPA provides a Directory of Builders who are using this technique which can be found by clicking here. Once you have chosen your builder, use this EPA checklist to be sure that Radon-Resistant features have been installed in your home.
How does Radon Resistant New Construction work?
How do I know if my fan is working?
If you have an active radon system typically you will have what is called a U-tube manometer that measures fan operation. The level of liquid in the manometer should not be at an equal level on both sides. If the level is uneven, this means that the fan is operating correctly.
Linn County Public Health (LCPH) conducted a radon evaluation project in 2013 to determine radon levels in new construction homes. LCPH obtained a list of building permits issued between 2008 and 2012 in unincorporated Linn County, Cedar Rapids, and Marion. A letter was sent to the addresses for participation. The evaluation project was under the supervision of staff who has received formalized training on radon mitigation and measurement. LCPH staff placed two short-term charcoal radon test kits on the lowest lived-in level of the home and according to testing instructions. Two kits were placed within four inches of each other as a quality control technique; the relative percent difference between the test kits was calculated to determine the validity of the kits and to quickly verify radon levels.
During the evaluation LCPH assessed the average radon levels, the type of radon system, and condition of the sump pit. The gravel base, vapor barrier, cracks and crevices in the concrete foundation were not assessed. All of these factors can influence radon levels within the home.
1. Active Radon System: 3" or 4" PVC pipe that extends from below the building foundation to the exterior of the home with a powered vent fan actively pulling air below the foundation.
2. Passive Radon System: 3" or 4" PVC pipe that extends from below the building foundation to the exterior of the home, but which does not have a powered vent fan.
3. No Radon System: No evidence of a functional venting system to remove radon gas.
LCPH evaluated only what was visible in the basement or slab-on-grade and from the outside of the home, but did not observe the entire system or if the fan was operating. The determination of passive or active system was made on the observation of a pipe in the basement, a pipe coming out of the roof, and whether a manometer (present in active systems) was observed.
LCPH also assessed the condition of the sump pit. Radon enters your home through cracks and crevices, and unsealed sump pits provide a direct pathway for soil gases to enter the home and build up. Of the 97 homes with complete data, more than 50% had an unsealed sump pit. Homes with a sealed sump pit and no sump pit were considered functionally the same, and therefore lumped into one category (Figure 2).
Sealed Sump Pit: Described as no visible gaps, cracks, or crevices that will allow air flow from below the building foundation into the living environment. Gaps, cracks, and crevices are hermetically sealed with gaskets, silicone caulking, or equivalent.
Unsealed Sump Pit: Allows air to flow into the living environment from below the building foundation. An unsealed sump pit may be missing gaskets or a lid. May see PVC pipe terminate outside of the lid.
Of these data, LCPH compared the average radon levels by the type of radon system and sump pit. Of the 97 homes included in this evaluation, 96 were included in Figure 3. One home was excluded because radon screen levels were significantly higher (22.2 pCi/L) compared to other homes range of 0.3 to 13.2 pCi/L.
No Radon Removal System: 48% of homes without radon removal systems had average radon levels above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L. However, average radon levels were slightly lower in homes with a sealed sump pit or no sump pit.
Passive Radon System: Homes with a passive radon system and either a sealed sump pit or no sump pit had lower average radon levels compared to those with unsealed sump pits. Average radon levels in homes with a passive radon system and an unsealed sump pit were near the EPA action level. However, 24% of homes with a passive radon system had radon levels above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L.
Active Radon System: Homes with an active radon removal system and sealed sump pit had average radon levels closer to expected ambient air radon levels and none were above the EPA action level (4.00pCi/L).
• Homes with an unsealed sump pit are more likely to have higher radon levels than homes with a sealed sump pit.
• Homes without a radon removal system are more likely to have higher radon levels than homes with a passive or active radon system.
• The majority of homes in Linn County do not have radon removal systems.
• More homes are likely to have an unsealed sump pit instead of a sealed or no sump pit.

Rapid land use changes, forest degradation, soil erosion, climate change, policy deficits, and community inability to handle these challenges have caused a downward spiral of the livestock production system in Nepal. We hypothesize that the livestock production system in Nepal is intricately related to forest resource, soil quality, and crop productivity, and its development and adaptation to climate change requires capacity-building and strengthening of the production system. We have tentatively identified a representative watershed in Nuwakot district for this study. An interdisciplinary team will be involved in reconnaissance surveys, household surveys, group interviews, field visits, and round table discussions for a comprehensive understanding of the livestock production system and its adaptation to climate change. Assessment of challenges and opportunities for capacity-building at the community level will be done by forming Community Livestock Groups in the watershed and conducting various activities in relation to skills development such as feed storage, feed quality improvement by enriching rice straw with urea, and livestock monitoring. Similarly, capacity-building at the national, district and local levels will be assessed through institutional analyses, policy reviews, and office visits. Research results will be disseminated through various media outlets including scientific journals, newspapers, meetings, workshops, conferences, and community organizations.

After you have found the perfect name for your business and have completed making the logo for your business, you need to start concentrating on your brand voice. Your brand voice is subjective and is the voice of your brand. A significant portion of your branding depends on what the brand voice is like and how people react to it.
Create a brand voice that suits your brand personality. To ensure this, there are certain steps that need to be taken to get the perfect brand voice. Let's take a look!.
When deciding a brand voice, it is important to understand who your target audience is. Whether it is kids, teens, adults, or seniors. And since different generations, genders, religious communities, etc. have different beliefs, views, and perspectives, it is necessary to keep this in mind when placing your brand voice.
This is another area you need to concentrate on. Take an automotive company for example. You need to understand if you want to speak to your customers as they've never driven a car before, or like they know what exactly lies under the hood. Your choice of words must be absolute; otherwise, your customers can be instantly turned off by your brand voice.
Why does your brand exist? What are you offering to your clients? Think of these questions for a moment. When you were building the company, it is likely that you must have already thought of your mission. Remember this and use this in your brand voice so that it reflects your mission.
With huge competition in the market in every field, you have to always keep an eye on your customers. Perform complete research and learn what their brand voice sounds like, what tone they use, and what audience they target. You need to think about how your company is different from them. Include these points subtly in your brand voice to get better recognition.
This is another aspect to think about. Whether you want your brand voice to sound comical or you want it to be severe and stoic to prove that you're an absolute professional, the choice is really up to you.
What Would You Never Do?
Talking about both, what you do and what you don't as a company, carry equal weight. Think of at least two or three things that you would never do to your customers as a company. Sometimes speaking about what you'd never do is easier compared to what you do.
Apple CEO Tim Cook is known to treat the data of Apple customers very, very seriously.
Visualizing your brand's personality is important to get the perfect tone for your brand. Imagine your brand to be a person. Think about what their personality would be like? Will it be a he or a she? Will they be strong, smart, corporate, or casual? What will they sound like? What kind of personality do they have? What kind of family members would they have? Create a person out of your brand and understand each and every aspect of them. Keep all of this in mind when you're deciding on your brand voice.
There are several places you can use your brand voice. Ads, copywriting, social media posts, your website, etc. Almost your entire brand identity is formed by the kind of brand voice you have created for your brand, so your brand voice will find application right from your product catalog, to your marketing blog and site call-to-actions.

The Craft of Metal #2: Abominations of Desolation
by Nicholas Vahdias on August 9, 2018
Abominations of Desolation (1986) appeared during the fertile years of death metal as the first full-length release from Morbid Angel but was relegated to demo status during the period when the band became more well known. All the songs except "Demon Seed" were re-recorded on later releases.
The true first Morbid Angel album reveals the genetic material that the band would then expand for the next three releases during what would be their musical prime. It shows the band at their peak from a compositional point of view owing in part to the combination of Azagthoth's and Browning's genuine belief in the Necronomicon and the focus on making their music the soundtrack to their beliefs.
The incredibly diverse riffcraft shows the band absorbing influences principally from Hellhamer, Angel Witch, Slayer and Mercyful Fate. Unlike their influences, the band plays fully developed death metal with long tremolo picked passages, single picked notes, fast alternate picked open strings playing against moving power chord progressions, even playing with other diatonic chords from time to time and combining the whole in a varied amount of ways depending on the needs of the songs. Notably absent is the influence of speed metal which would appear on the more streamlined Altars of Madness (1989). None of the bounce nor the rhythmic interplay of their contemporaries is in evidence here; the band does not accentuate the offbeats nor do they use the choppy syncopation of their more well-known peers.
From the heavy metal that was so influential to this record Morbid Angel brought the device of guitar solos, not as an ornament or an embellishment, but as a central piece within the composition that works closely with the rhythm guitars playing underneath. Here is a band with a limited number of technical tools derived from previous bands but combined in a large variety of ways that sets the standard for all of death metal and allows the band to create much more powerful melodies that can be interconnected in maze like arrangements.
Contrary to popular belief Morbid Angel never attempted to create atonal music as they obviously do enjoy smashing one note or power chord and then making the whole sequence invert the relationship formerly established. However, on a much subtler note Trey Azagthoth does have the ability to play with tonality in the most twisted of ways. Take for example "Chapel of Ghouls" and how the low chugging has a particular power to it and never sounds like the chugging between riffs from any speed metal derived band. That is because the chugging note is not the actual root note of the song but what is referred to as the subtonic. This is the last note in the natural minor scale and demonstrates a lack of desire to lead into the root note of the scale. Rather than a rhythmic embellishment, we are treated to an integral note in the many motifs of "Chapel of Ghouls" and how the band managed to truly convey power and occultist ideology through simple yet effective musical choices.
Chromaticism at this point in time had already been a widespread technique but Morbid Angel decided to apply their own twist on it. Rather than create fully chromatic passages the songs are derived from the minor scale and its variations but with added streams of three or four chromatic bursts. This really did obscure the tonality of certain passages, and gave birth to the myth that Morbid Angel played atonal music to make the band seem much more intellectual where in reality the young band did even better than that: they adapted tonality for their own style and to this day very few bands have been able to emulate these techniques efficiently.
The arrangements here push the riff as being above all else. Multiple melodies form these songs that flow in such a fluid manner that this would inspire the Norwegian scene in their compositional choices. The melodies vary in tempo and in note selection yet the transitions never sound forced as the band will lengthen the note duration when speeding up and shorten the note duration when slowing down. This allows for these motifs to mutate without being held back by rhythm. The influence of Mozart is subtle but is ever present in the way the band designs the arrangement of each song. At first each song has a primary melody that either begins the composition or is introduced by a motif of minor importance. A development then occurs either through a new riff that either takes the previous motif and transforms it or through an entirely new riff accompanied with a tempo change to push the tension even further along. Eventually the music arrives at an apex where all the tension is released before it concludes on the main motif that has now become a revelation.
Let us look at "Angel of Disease," which has a simple heavy metal motif in D# minor without any chromatic notes. It is then warped to a slower riff that is barely in D# minor but has been deformed entirely by surrounding chromatic notes and this continues the momentum of the main motif as the cycle repeats one more time before branching out into a palm muted stream of single notes working in opposition with the secondary motif leading us to the grand climax of the song. The solos Azagthoth performs obey the underlying riffs and, through a combination of insane melodies that are at times atonal whole tone jumps or some very unique arpeggios like the diminished seventh which is an endless stream of minor thirds, create some very unique sounds. The solos through their madness show a strong logic where they reinforce the arrangements either by providing the climax or by creating even more tension upon the chromatic segments.
Abominations of Desolation takes the underground metal that evolving at the same time and use it to make the first truly mature death metal record. Surprisingly the heavy metal of the past is still very present in this band though it remains a device for the creation of the more consonant motifs, yet one can only wonder what the avenue explored by the only song to not appear on future records "Demon Seed." The extravagant heavy metal didn't seem to be in accordance with the band's future works but what we have here is a Judas Priest style composition that plays with its dual identity, and it would take a few years before the European bands would develop this style further.
Where the influence of future country singer David Vincent would push Morbid Angel to explore grindcore and speed metal whilst taking influence from this album, Mike Browning was able to channel the band toward creating a powerful piece of art that is still to this day not fully understood and that neither musician has been able to recreate. There are far too many elements in this album to effectively analyze in such small an article as this is, but it reveals the power held by the common beliefs of two above average individuals, as well as reveals the magic that happened in that incredibly short period time only to disappear back to the depths of hell.

Thirty Years of Morbid Visions
by Daniel Maarat on April 13, 2017
Sepultura's Morbid Visions is my favorite thirty year old album. Released in Brazil on November 10th, 1986, Morbid Visions saw Sepultura slither past the primitive Hellhammer, Celtic Frost, and Sodom worship of their initial Bestial Devastation extended play (included as a bonus on almost all CD versions of Morbid Visions) and into ultraviolent, progressive but still primitive, death and black metal.

Still Reigning 30 Years Later
by Staff on October 12, 2016
After Slayer's foray into narrative composition on Hell Awaits, Slayer could have taken any number of directions in the then fertile metal landscape: gone in for the throat of aggression, matured their pubescent approach to long-form content, or paired down on riff quality for focused but circular songs. Reign in Blood was something of a compromise bred to appease more Floridian tastes which crave motion before coherence or purpose. The album is brief but bookended by two of the better songs in their discography which daftly elevate the questionable content residing in between. The remaining material siphons off of the paired down and quintessential "Angel of Death" by meandering in whatever assortment of good but disconnected riffs the Hanneman/King dichotomy happened upon in between Heinekens; held together in tacit alliances by a sweltering pace which exhausts itself right as the title track closes the record. The foresight required to write an album such as this is commendable but Reign in Blood is not Slayer's watershed moment if for nothing more than the sheer amount of disposable songs – not riffs – which constitute the majority of the runtime. This uncomfortable fact goes unrecognized due to the sheer brevity of this work. Yet as I wrote this brief paragraph I must have recited the full album in my head at least a few times and I have not listened to the album is many years. May the resolve of Reign in Blood's memetic warfare continue to withstand assailants from the ever flowing genre compost bin and grant listeners to the strength to withstand the torrents of nature herself.

Iron Maiden – Somewhere in Time (1986)
by Staff on May 14, 2016
Article by David Rosales.
Released after Iron Maiden's golden era, Somewhere in Time is touted by fans of heavy and power metal as a crown jewel of the band, exemplifying perfected expression and streamlined efficiency. This is not immediately convincing for metal hessians. Rightly so as the music became more sterile, hence, less credible. There is definitely a sense of "upgradedness" in both the production and the choice of stylistic voicings, allowing an inclusion of 80s pop coloration into the palette. This unclear, semi-sellout move demanded accountability, while at the same time the band boasted of accumulated experience fructifying the transformation, masterfully avoiding the typical degeneration that could be expected after the climax and summary of their original sound in 1985's Live After Death.

Trey's and Mike's best: the Abominations of Desolation
by David Rosales on June 9, 2015
Conceived in rehearsals between 1984 and 1985, Abominations of Desolation was completed and recorded by 1986, showcasing the most concentrated and solid (in composition) release either Trey Azagthoth or Mike Browning have put out until now (or likely to ever release, for that matter). I hesitate to use the word refined here as that would imply a correcting of minute details at every level, which this album obviously does not posses. The next three albums make use of this material and refine it in different ways and distinct directions, filling out the rest of the albums with some good ideas and mostly filler.
On Altars of Madness, the most significant changes to the music besides the studio production (including tone and what no) and vocals were to tempo. The composition of the songs themselves remained the same. Basically they were played much faster and the drumming was made more "tight". The new songs that were not taken from Abominations of Desolation were essentially inferior filler, although the songs were not necessarily bad, just not as good as the earlier material. There are two things to be said regarding the tempo changes. On the one hand, Altars of Madness is mandatory study material for any true fan of the genre and even more so for the aspiring death metal musician because it is a textbook example of excellent technical accomplishment of flexible death metal compositions. On the other hand, accelerating so much destroyed the original character of the songs which no longer sounded mystically infused with darkness but rather comically colorful. The tempo also obfuscated the structural features rather than highlighting and exploiting them, lending a flatter and more pop-oriented sound that emphasized hooks in the middle of a maelstrom of madness.
In 1991, Morbid Angel released Blessed are the Sick, which sees the band attempting to regain the spirit they lost in Altars of Madness in search of a more professionally competitive tone and production. The early songs used in this album were not as distorted, retaining their original aura, but they were re-recorded with very soft and mellow guitar and drum sound. The new songs composed for the album also matched the dense atmosphere and dynamics of the older songs. A concept orientation was adopted and the result was the artistic peak of Morbid Angel, presenting the highest refinement of the material in balance with a whole-work oriented album rather than a simple collection of songs. Here we find the best of Azagthoth's collaboration with Browning meeting the best of Morbid Angel's later work. While Altars of Madness came out as slightly comical, Abominations of Desolation seemed dark and serious about its occult nature and Blessed are the Sick made a serious attempt at recovering that.
Then came Covenant, the last album to use seminal material from Abominations of Desolation. This album is a strong attempt at bringing the best from the two previous albums, it is Morbid Angel attempting to summarize, solidify their voice, carving a new path after having released their magnum opus. This is always the most difficult album in a classic band's career. It often results in an emphasizing of technical aspects while the band tries to discover how they can continue after they have achieved greatness. The result is often undeniably outstanding material that lacks spirit. It happened to Yes after Close to the Edge, the greatest and most ambitious organic expression of who they were. Becoming self-referential in Tales from Topographic Oceans and then, not knowing where to go artistically, Yes used the best of their technical abilities to produce their technical highlight: Relayer. Covenant is Morbid Angel's Relayer.
I am tempted to say that the best work these two artists ever did was together. It is a pity that personal problems had to come between them. Same sad story of Celtic Frost's, who also never reached its early heights after the dynamic duo at its center separated. It is hard to tell how each of these artists complement each other, but judging from their projects away from each other we can observe that without Browning, Azagthoth becomes streamlined and even sterile, while without the latter Browning indulges in an adventurous music full of life that is unfortunately musically crippled by a lack of discipline and organization. Perhaps this is also related to a merely technical appreciation of Mozart by Azagthoth and the excited yet musically uninformed admiration of Rush on Browning's side.
Complaining about the production and tone in Abominations of Desolation and overlooking the whole composition is like missing a great book of classic literature because you do not like the cover and the font in which it is written. You can complain about the font, but the font is not the organized information that literature is. So it is that production values do not make up what music is, only a medium. This does not mean that we should not criticize this, but it seems to me that it is over the top and superficial to say that, for instance, Altars of Madness is superior because the tone and production is better there. In fact, since the best songs in that "first" album are taken from Abominations of Desolation, and the rest are second-rate filler in comparison, I would say that in terms of content this early output is the best release to ever come out under the name of Morbid Angel.
The extent to which the artist's belief in what he says and does, and how much he is actually familiar and imbued with the material, affects the final result of the music. While the young band fervently believed in the Ancients and the Arabic magic spells referenced in their lyrics, the more "mature" band only held on to these in a more tongue-in-cheek, ironic or perhaps metaphorical sense. Abominations of Desolation concentrates and summarizes all the power Morbid Angel had to give at that point which unfortunately only dissipated in future releases. This 1986 release, and no other, is the embodiment of what Morbid Angel is.

Reissue of Vulcano's Bloody Vengeance coming on May 18
Greyhaze Records is set to unearth Bloody Vengeance, the 1986 full-length debut from Brazilian death metal pioneers Vulcano. Formed in 1980, Vulcano is thought to be the first band from Brazil, and possibly South America, to play extreme metal. An early influence for the likes of Sepultura and Sarcófago, Vulcano's primal blend of black, thrash and death metal sparked a flame that quickly spread across the mid-80s underground metal community.
Bloody Vengeance is being reintroduced to a new generation of metalheads. Fully remastered and restored, the album is accompanied by a DVD that features a live performance from the 1986 Festival Da Morte. Greyhaze Records will reissue this cult classic as a six-panel digipak CD/DVD on May 18.
Vulcano will celebrate the reissue at this year's Maryland Deathfest. The MDF set will be the band's first-ever live performance on American soil. With no other U.S. dates in the works, MDF XIII looks to be the only chance to experience the madness that is Vulcano north of the equator.
Bloody Vengeance is available at store.greyhazerecords.com.

We create and deliver outstanding ethically sourced events and this starts with the location and venue. We review your brief, understand your aims and objectives and help guide you in selecting a destination that suits your delegate demographic.
We encourage our clients to use destinations that embrace equality. Clearwater Events believe in using destinations that embrace the values and beliefs of equality, rather than putting delegates in destinations where their lifestyle, beliefs, gender or sexuality could be illegal or suppressed.
Our first question in proposing a suitable destination is, 'What are the demographics of your delegation?' You may not have a complete guest list, but an overview of age, gender, nationalities and any key demographics you feel are relevant is important. For example, you can assume that you will have at least 5% LGBTQ delegates, so sending an LGBTQ event to a destination where homosexuality is illegal isn't a good move. We always have our clients' best interests at heart and go into great detail when considering the suitability of a venue, even down to who owns it. We are fully aware that if a venue is owned or funded by unethical sources then it could have negative implications for our clients.
Check departure access points based on possible delegate locations. Which airlines travel to the destination?) Are the flight times suitable to allow delegates to safely travel to and from the airport? If a flight arrives home late at night, will delegates have a safe way of travelling home?
Is the suggested destination one that delegates will feel safe in?
What are the legalities and what are the ramifications if something does go wrong?

Passenger pictures show airplane which skidded off runway at Bristol Airport and caused cancellations and delays to flights
It caused widespread disruption to arrivals and departures and ruined Christmas for thousands of people
Michael YongEducation and news reporter
The first pictures of the airplane which came to a halt after skidding off the runway at Bristol Airport have emerged.
Emergency services were called to the airport around 11.45am on Friday, December 22, after reports a plane carrying several passengers had left the runway while taxiing.
Passengers onboard the Embraer 145 plane from Frankfurt, BM1822, were given a shock as the plane skidded off track and onto a patch of grass.
Thankfully, none of the 25 people on board the plane were hurt, although the dazed passengers were then taken by coach to the terminal.
Tributes paid to Steve Norman, Bristol's 'well-known, relentless and loudest' activist
The incident caused several flights in the morning to be diverted to other airports, and flights in and out of the airport for the rest of the day were mostly cancelled.

A team from the Air Accidents Investigation Branch – a Government department – was sent to the airport to investigation, and recovery teams started on the airplane around 3.30pm.
There were delays for the rest of the evening, as teams worked on the stranded plane.

It would only be around 11.30pm before the plane was towed to a safe location, and the runway reopened.
Yesterday was expected to be one of the busiest days in the calendar, with thousands leaving or coming back to Bristol in time for Christmas weekend.
Passengers on easyJet flights were told they would be reimbursed if they found alternative transport solutions.
Company bmi added passengers could request a full refund or re-book on an alternative bmi flight or with a partner airline.

But a firm offering legal services for passengers said the thousands of affected passengers would not be eligible for compensation because the incident fell outside the airlines' control.
A statement from bmi said emergency services were on the ground as a "precautionary measure".
Peter Simpson, CEO for bmi, said yesterday: "We are aware that many passengers and airlines have seen disruptions to their journeys to and from Bristol Airport as a result of an incident on Friday morning.
Airlines not required to pay compensation to Bristol Airport passengers stuck after flights cancelled
"The investigation into what happened to flight BM1822 after landing is continuing and we are working closely with Bristol Airport and the services to ensure that the airport can return to normal as soon as possible.
"We understand that at Christmas, delays and cancellations can be very distressing for those travelling to see friends and family and we empathise with everyone affected."

Pilot Review: The After
Streaming on Amazon
There's a lot to say about the fifth and last of Amazon's five new pilots released for public voting to determine which of them will make it to series that I screened. The most notable thing is that it comes from Chris Carter, master of mythology and the occasional lone episode with "The X-Files," who hasn't had a show on since it went off the air over a decade ago. This show is big on premise but doesn't pretend to boast strong writing or characters. Instead, its many personalities who get trapped together in an elevator and then stuck in an underground parking garage while sounds of doom echo from outside are representations of different types of people. Putting an older rich woman, an escaped convict claiming to be innocent, a by-the-book cop, a seedy lawyer, a prostitute, a mean Irishman, a clown, and a French actress together makes for an intriguing if not always intellectual stage, and it serves the purpose that it needs to for this show. What can be said very positively about this hour is that it stays suspenseful and involving for its entirety, which doesn't suggest anything durable about the longevity it could have as a series. I liked it up until the final moments, since I found that showing a backwards-walking demon was a bit too literal for a pilot that had succeeded by demonstrating nothing more than uncertainty and chaos. The discovery that all the people in the group had the same birthday was a step in right direction, and the apocalyptic confirmation overdid it. I think this show could easily go downhill if commissioned, and I would have been much more enticed to see it without those closing minutes.
How would it work as a series? They all saw the demon, and they're not in the house, so it could be messy until they managed to overpower the thugs and reclaim their rich digs. I like the casting of Adrian Pasdar as the smooth-talking lawyer, but otherwise the cast isn't all that enticing. It really depends on how the concept plays out and if it remains just as enthralling and tense.
Will it make it to a series? I'm leaning towards yes, but I think just as many people hated it as loved it. Carter is a big draw, and this show could be compared to "Flash Forward" or "Terra Nova," big event series that petered out quickly, and so if Amazon thinks it will be more of a long-lasting "Lost" or "Revolution," they might just go for it.

As the time complexity will be O(logn) in second case , i am wondering what if  the above task is to perform on a simple tree , how i would covert a tree to Binary index tree.
For Example
                         1

Game faces : sport celebrity and the laws of reputation, Sarah K. Fields
The Resource Game faces : sport celebrity and the laws of reputation, Sarah K. Fields
The item Game faces : sport celebrity and the laws of reputation, Sarah K. Fields represents a specific, individual, material embodiment of a distinct intellectual or artistic creation found in University of San Diego Libraries.
Fields, Sarah K., 1968-
"Sports figures cope with a level of celebrity once reserved for the stars of stage and screen. In Game Faces, Sarah K. Fields looks at the legal ramifications of the cases brought by six of them--golfer Tiger Woods, quarterback Joe Montana, college football coach Wally Butts, baseball pitchers Warren Spahn and Don Newcombe, and hockey enforcer Tony Twist--when faced with what they considered attacks on their privacy and image. Placing each case in its historical and legal context, Fields examines how sports figures in the U.S. have used the law to regain control of their image. As she shows, decisions in the cases significantly affected the evolution of laws related to privacy, defamation, and publicity--areas pertinent to the lives of the famous sports figure and the non-famous consumer alike. She also tells the stories of why the plaintiffs sought relief in the courts, uncovering motives that delved into the heart of issues separating individual rights from the public's perceived right to know. A fascinating exploration of a still-evolving phenomenon, Game Faces is an essential look at the legal playing fields that influence our enjoyment of sports"--
"Athletes and coaches, especially professional ones, have evolved into celebrity superstars as bright as those in film and stage. Their celebrity status depends upon widespread publicity, which invites public scrutiny and a host of hangers-on eager to tap into a celebrity's income, and which brings their individual rights into conflict with the First Amendment rights of the Press. In a series of legal decisions, celebrity athletes have been catalysts for change in defining the limits of privacy, defamation, publicity, and property rights. Professor Fields looks at six court cases involving prominent sports celebrities: Coach Wally Butts, a member of the College Football Hall of Fame; pitcher Warren Spahn, a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame; quarterback Joe Montana, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame; African American Don Newcombe, the only major league baseball player to have won the rookie of the year, most valuable player, and Cy Young awards; golf pro Tiger Woods; and hockey player Tony Twist, a league leader in penalty minutes. The cases are not fascinating because of the athletes, but also because of the stories they tell, involving lies, libel, invasion of privacy, and the commercial use of names and images.

Duterte: Drug war will be 'harsher in the days to come'

MANILA, Philippines — President Rodrigo Duterte warned on Wednesday that his anti-drug campaign would be "harsher in the days to come."
"And I am declaring war. I am not declaring a punitive police action. It cannot help and it would not help. So early on I decided but I think I'd be more — well I said harsher in the days to come," the President said in a speech in Malacañang.
Despite saying that nobody could solve the drug problem, Duterte said he would fulfill his promise to end the illegal drug problem during his term.
"I'm not speculating on my competence or ability. Far from it, actually. Nobody can solve it in due time," he said. "Pero gusto kong tapusin ko talaga 'to sa panahon ko."
[But I really want to finish this during my term.]
"I have the three years left, and I'm putting notice to everybody and the same sloganeering. Maybe it leaves a bad taste in the mouth every time I say it, but I have to say it. At least you are forewarned," he added.
The President then reiterated his vow that he would not allow anyone to destroy the Philippines, especially the youth, with illegal drugs.
"I will not allow my country to be destroyed by drugs. I will not allow my country to end up a failed state because of drugs. And I am declaring war and I said I will kill anybody who stands in the way," he said.
He also threatened to kill those behind the smuggling of illegal drugs into the Philippines.
"And also for those guys who keep on with their business of importing — be they Mexicans or Chinese or Filipino. If you continue to feed our children with drugs, there's no way that… talagang maaabutan ko kayo at papatayin ko kayo," he said.
[I will get to you and I will kill you.]
When he assumed office on June 30, 2016, the President has been pushing for ending the proliferation of illegal drugs in the Philippines. /atm

Abstract: In this paper the construction of Reed-Solomon RS(255,239) codeword is described and the process of coding and decoding a message is simulated and verified. RS(255,239), or its shortened version RS(224,208) is used as a coding technique in Low-Power Single Carrier (LPSC) physical layer, as described in IEEE 802.11ad standard. The encoder takes 239 8-bit information symbols, adds 16 parity symbols and constructs 255-byte codeword to be transmitted through wireless communication channel. RS(255,239) codeword is defined over Galois Field GF and is used for correcting up to 8 symbol errors. RS(255,239) code construction is fully implemented and Simulink test project is constructed for testing and analyzingpurposes.

What is intriguing about Bono's rhapsody is the part of the history lesson that really excited him: not democracy, but the ability of a group of rich men to bring about dramatic change, and to do so in the name of a ringingly good idea. The association of this peculiar form of greatness with Bill Gates, who had become something of a partner and patron to Bono, is surely no accident. (For more on the Gates connection, see below.) Bono's version of America's 'idea', in short, is fully in keeping with his own campaigning practice: rich and powerful men making decisions and creating change that they say is in the interests of everyone else – who may or may not get a say in the matter.
I'd like to find more unguarded statements of inspiration by prominent philanthrocapitalists, in order to consider their underlying motivations.
Aging brought another challenge—what one female friend called the "fear of not having any more brilliant ideas. The idea that after thirty, you're kind of over the hill, that you're not being clever anymore." Steve Jobs, she believed, had a similar fear, one he and others confronted by starting second companies just to prove that their initial successes had not been mere flukes—which in some ways, of course, they had been.

The Arctic Is Experiencing a Record-Breaking Heat Wave
Temperatures in the Arctic are around 50 degrees warmer than usual.
By Avery Thompson
Chase Dekker Wild-Life ImagesGetty Images
The Arctic is supposed to be cold, but right now it's anything but. Temperatures at the North Pole are reaching a record high, perhaps as much as 35 degrees Fahrenheit for the month of February, which is warmer than the region usually gets during the summer months.
That data comes from the U.S. Global Forecast System, a computer model of the Earth's weather and climate. While there's a chance the model is wrong about the temperature, independent measurements have confirmed that the temperature in the Arctic is around freezing temperatures.
That means the Arctic is now about 50 degrees warmer than it usually is this time of year. It also means Arctic ice is already beginning to melt. This is particularly alarming because the winter months are supposed to be when the Arctic builds ice, and Arctic ice is already at a record low.
The extreme event continues to unfold in the high #Arctic today in response to a surge of moisture and "warmth"
2018 is well exceeding previous years (thin lines) for the month of February. 2018 is the red line. Average temperature is in white (https://t.co/kO5ufUWrKq) pic.twitter.com/cLeMxSxvWo
— Zack Labe (@ZLabe) February 25, 2018
So what's causing the abnormal warming? Scientists believe it's at least partly due to the lack of Arctic sea ice. January saw one of the lowest ice-building months on record, and the lack of sea ice means the ocean is less insulated from the atmosphere. Without ice, warmer ocean water can heat the atmosphere, leading to the kind of record-breaking warmth seen this past month.
This also suggests that the problem will get exponentially worse, as a lack of sea ice leads to warmer temperatures that prevent the building of more ice. There's a good chance this month's record will only last until next winter, and it's likely this will be one of the last years in which there's any sea ice in the Arctic oceans at all.

'Technical' race course at Anvaya Coast awaits bidders in 2015 Salomon XTrail
By Rhoel V. Fernandez
http://www.spin.ph/running/active-lifestyle/salomon-xtrail-2015-anvaya-cove-bataan-trail-run
"THAT'S our purpose – to challenge people."
That's the promise in the fifth edition of Salomon XTrail, which will feature new race routes and challenges to its devoted following in the trail running community.
The 2015 race is expected to draw 1,500 entries on April 25 and will be held for the first time in the exclusive Anvaya Coast residential community in Morong, Bataan.
Salomon started hosting events in the Swiss Alps with skiing and snowboarding races and has since earned a reputation for performance racing, trail running, adventure racing and city trail running.
Last March 25, the Swiss-based brand invited selected members of the media to conduct a six-kilometer walkthrough of a portion of the race course which will tour the roads, hills, mountains and valleys around Anvaya Cove.
The trail sections overlooking the cove are steep and technical, with sharp and loose rocks, roots and thick foliage, as well as rewarding views of the sea and the rugged Bataan peninsula.
Salomon Pilipinas brand manager Janice Tañada said the 2015 edition will offer race categories that will satisfy both newbies and hardcore racers. The 32km and 24km will be mountain races for dedicated trail runners while the 12km and 6km distances will be raced in trails suited for first-timers.
Tañada explained that compared to last year's XTrail in Hamilo Coast, the Bataan race offers new trails with fewer uphills and downhills but a more technically demanding course.
"It's very scenic, there are waterfalls and multiple river crossings. The route will have more forgiving ascents and descents, but more ropes, water and river crossings to make up for it. There are also views of Mt. Natib. This time we'll show what technical is all about," she pointed out.
Organizers said the race is a strictly green run so participants must bring their own bottles. For safety reasons, participants in the mountain runs will be be strictly required to bring mandatory gear such as headlamps, whistles and hydration packs.
Around Morong, a former Vietnamese refugee processing camp, pawikan-conserved beaches and Kanawan aeta communities are among the areas of interest the race will help promote. Beach resorts will also provide discounts to race participants.

Miracle Scots baby enjoys first Christmas at home after defying all medical odds
Little Sofia Viktoria Birina was born at just 22 weeks and is Scotland's youngest-ever surviving premature baby - her mum and dad say her survival is their greatest Christmas gift.

Born at just 22 weeks, tiny Sofia Viktoria Birina has been through the biggest battle of her life to spend a magical first Christmas at home.
The cheeky 14-month-old girl defied all medical odds and is Scotland's youngest-ever surviving premature baby.
Mum Egija and dad Inars, from Airdrie, said her survival was their greatest gift as Sofia celebrated Christmas ripping open presents and pulling on the baubles of the tree, reports the Daily Record.
Egija, 23, said: "It was beyond magical as it was a day we thought we would never see. This time last year we were keeping a vigil by her hospital incubator.
"People talk about Christmas miracles – well, Sofia is our forever miracle.
"She is our angel baby and our teeny cheeky warrior princess.
"By rights, she should not be here but we fought to have her and she fought to survive. Seeing her open her stocking on Christmas morning was the best gift ever."
Inars said: "We are treasuring every single moment of this festive season.

"We are so proud of our brave little daughter."
Born 18 weeks early and weighing just 1lb 1oz – the weight of a loaf of bread – Sofia was given just a 10 per cent chance of survival during labour and even less chance of surviving after birth.
Her skin was transparent and as thin as tissue paper when she arrived, being born nearly two weeks before the legal abortion limit.
She had not been due until February 1, 2021, and fitted into the palm of her dad's hand when she was born last year.
The little girl survived a heart defect, brain bleeds, an eye disease and numerous other infections.
She needed seven blood transfusions and was on a ventilator at University Hospital Wishaw's neonatal unit to help her breathe as her lungs weren't fully developed.
She spent three months in an incubator before being discharged.
Today Sofia continues to defy all medical expectations and is meeting all her milestones.
Egija said: "Sofia amazes us every day.
"She has been discharged from the lung clinic and at her yearly check-up the consultant told us he doesn't want to see her again until she is three.

"It's hard to believe our happy, smiley baby who can crawl at lightning speed to get to the baubles on the tree was once so small and helpless and fighting for every breath she took.
"Sofia has the heart of a lion and it is her strong spirit that keeps her going.
"She wants to run before she can walk and does everything on her terms. She is also very vocal.
"She is still very petite and, although she is 14 months old, she is still wearing six-to-nine-months clothes but we think she is going to be tall as she has big hands and feet."
Egija moved to Scotland from Latvia 12 years ago and had already gone through a stillbirth and a miscarriage but refused to lose hope when she found out Sofia was coming so early.
Egija said: "Everything was fine at my 20-week scan but a week later I felt pain so I went into hospital and was told I was already dilated and had to go into labour.
"Doctors told me there was only a 10 per cent chance she would survive labour and even less than that if she made it out alive.
"I was told if she did live she might only survive for 10 minutes and there was a strong possibility she would have lots of complications and disabilities.
"I was given the option to terminate my pregnancy but I was having none of it.

"They gave me steroids and Sofia managed to stay inside for a few more days.
"Some hospitals won't agree to help a baby born before 24 weeks but I will be forever grateful to the staff at Wishaw for taking a chance on our wee fighter Sofia."
The courier, who married fellow Latvian Inars, 28, in 2019, added: "And what a fight our tiny baby, who was just 10 inches long and no bigger than a hand, had after she was born.
"I was at the hospital all the time, some days as long as 16 hours, and my husband would come after work.
"I just didn't want to leave her, especially on the many really tough days when we didn't think she would make it – and there were quite a few of those."
Egija revealed she feared she might never become a mum after their first daughter Rosie was stillborn in 2017 and she suffered a miscarriage in 2019.
She said: "Everything was fine at Rosie's 20-week scan and Inars and I decided to go on our first holiday abroad to Mallorca. Two days after we got there, I started to bleed and went to the hospital.
"Doctors told me there was a problem with the placenta and they could only save me and not the baby.
"I was heart-broken that they weren't going to attempt to save my child. I had to go through a six-hour labour. It was horrific.
"She was still alive as I could feel her kicking but she was too weak and died before she was born.
"All I could do was hold her and whisper goodbye.
"Before Sofia arrived, I had a miscarriage when I was 10 weeks pregnant.
"Part of me feared I'd never be a mum but I refused to give up hope.
"Having lost Rosie made me even more determined to fight for Sofia.
"I will never be able to repay the midwives, doctors and nurses who gave me the chance to be a mother."
Egija hopes her story will inspire other mothers-to-be.
She said: "To all other mummies going into such an early labour, there is hope – never give up.
"I still can't believe you can terminate a pregnancy up to 24 weeks.
"Sofia was born at 22 weeks and she was a proper human being.
"She just needed a bit of help to keep her going.
"The doctors took a risk and it paid off.
"She's our miracle baby, Christmas angel and greatest of gifts."

Thanks for signing up! Below are your Strength and Mobility videos and downloads!
Here's the deal: if you want to be the best runner you can be and if you want to decrease the chance of injury, you need to be doing SAM after every run (and ideally after every cross training day).
SAM is comprised of Core Strength, Hip Strength and Hip Mobility exercises, together in one routine that takes just 10 minutes for SAM Easy and roughly 15 minutes for SAM Hard.
What is the difference between SAM Easy and SAM Hard? You do SAM Easy following your easy runs/recovery days. You do SAM Hard following your challenging workouts and long runs. For most of the adults I coach, this means they do SAM Hard twice a week and SAM Easy 3-4 times a week.
SAM is a collaboration between myself and Dr. Richard Hansen, a chiropractor in Boulder, Colorado, who also coaches a group of elite runners called the Roots Running Project.
You need to start with Phase 1; when you master Phase 1, you move to Phase 2. In the coming months we will have the next three Phases ready for you so you can continue to build your core strength, hip strength and hip mobility.
SAM is not a nice to do, but rather a need to do. This work is not optional if you want to become the best runner you can be and decrease your chance of injury.
Here are the Videos and corresponding PDFs. You need to watch the videos a time or two, then you can use the PDF to refresh your memory as to what each exercise is.
With the Lunge Matrix (LM) and Leg Swings (LS) videos you can find here, you now have the complete warm-up and post-run work you need to be doing to be the best runner you can be. LMLS before your run, then SAM after the run. It's a simple formula that has worked for all my clients and will work for you too.
First, if you want to hear about the importance of SAM from an athlete who would rather do more running than do the SAM work, check out my podcasts with Mark Hansen. Mark just ran a 7 min PR in the half marathon, going from 1:28 to 1:21. He's a busy adult with a hectic life, yet he made a huge jump and attributes much of it to the SAM work.
Perhaps you're like Mark - you dislike doing the non-running work after your run, even though you know you should be doing it. If you want to run a big PR and have the sensation of your legs feeling strong in the final mile(s) of the race, you've gotta do the SAM work.
LMLS and SAM are crucial elements to the Simple Marathon Training (SMT) system, a system you will can learn about in my new book, Simple Marathon Training: The Right Training for Busy Adults with Hectic Lives.
Head over to my Facebook Page, or shoot me an email at if you have any questions!
