42 Technology wins in 'Tomorrow's Train Design Today' competition
42 Technology has been named as one of three winning companies to receive a share of £2.2 million to continue developing its innovative design concept for a new generation of passenger rolling stock for use on the UK rail network.
The funding has been made available through 'Tomorrow's Train Design Today' (TTDT), an international competition led by RSSB's FutureRailway programme team in association with the Department for Transport.
The consultancy's winning concept is based on a flexible purpose carriage that can be quickly reconfigured to carry passengers or freight as required. When passenger occupancy levels are low, for example at off peak times or when commuter trains have delivered their passengers and are returning to the suburbs, the seats can be automatically moved and stowed to allow room for freight. This novel approach will help ease road congestion by encouraging more freight onto the railways, while delivering additional revenues to the UK rail network in excess of £100 million through more intensive use of rolling stock and without any significant increase in operating cost.
In addition to making the award, the judging panel also specifically praised 42 Technology for the quality of its development work and strength of its presentation setting out the commercial and technical feasibility of their approach. The judges included directors and senior managers from leading UK transport operator FirstGroup; train leasing specialist Angel Trains; train manufacturer Hitachi; and the Design Council.
"Everyone at 42 Technology is delighted that our outline designs and business case study have been so strongly endorsed by the competition judges. The next stage is for us to move ahead with detailed designs and to build a full scale demonstration model showing the adaptable carriage in action," said Jon Spratley, who led the consultancy's multi-disciplinary team in developing its initial concepts and winning submission. The image shows the development team holding two models used to help communicate their innovative concept to the judging panel.
The TTDT competition was split into two strands focused on new design ideas for medium and longer-term rolling stock. 42 Technology and PriestmanGoode were both named as winners in the next generation/medium term category. Andreas Vogler, in partnership with the German aerospace centre DLR, was chosen to progress its longer-term rolling stock design concept.
The 42 Technology team of industry experienced physicists, engineers, industrial designers and analysts is expert at conceiving and developing novel products for efficient manufacture.

8.3: Dating Rocks Using Fossils
Media Attributions
Geologists get a wide range of information from fossils. They help us to understand evolution and life in general; they provide critical information for understanding depositional environments and changes in Earth's climate; and, of course, they can be used to date rocks.
Although the recognition of fossils goes back hundreds of years, the systematic cataloguing and assignment of relative ages to different organisms from the distant past—paleontology—only dates back to the earliest part of the 19th century. The oldest undisputed fossils are from rocks dated around 3.5 Ga, and although fossils this old are tiny, typically poorly preserved and are not useful for dating rocks, they can still provide important information about conditions at the time. The oldest well-understood fossils are from rocks dating back to around 600 Ma, and the sedimentary record from that time forward is rich in fossil remains that provide a detailed record of the history and evolution of life on Earth. However, as anyone who has gone hunting for fossils knows, that does not mean that all sedimentary rocks have visible fossils, or that they are easy to find. Fossils alone cannot provide us with numerical ages of rocks, but over the past century geologists have acquired enough isotopic dates from rocks associated with fossil-bearing rocks (such as igneous dykes cutting through sedimentary layers, or volcanic layers between sedimentary layers) to be able to put specific time limits on most fossils.
A very selective history of life on Earth over the past 600 million years is provided in Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\). The major groups of organisms that we are familiar with evolved between the late Proterozoic and the Cambrian (approximately 600 to 520 Ma). Plants, which evolved in the oceans as green algae, came onto land during the Ordovician (approximately 450 Ma). Insects, which evolved from marine arthropods, came onto land during the Devonian (400 Ma), and amphibians (i.e., vertebrates) came onto land about 50 million years later. By the late Carboniferous, trees had evolved from earlier plants, and reptiles had evolved from amphibians. By the mid-Triassic, dinosaurs and mammals had evolved from very different branches of the reptiles; birds evolved from dinosaurs during the Jurassic. Flowering plants evolved in the late Jurassic or early Cretaceous. The earliest primates evolved from other mammals in the early Paleogene, and the genus Homo evolved during the late Neogene (roughly 2.8 Ma).

If we understand the sequence of evolution on Earth, we can apply knowledge to determining the relative ages of rocks. This is William Smith's principle of faunal succession, although of course it doesn't just apply to "fauna" (animals); it can also apply to fossils of plants and those of simple organisms.
The Phanerozoic has seen five major extinctions, as indicated in Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\). The most significant of these was at the end of the Permian, which saw the extinction of over 80% of all species and over 90% of all marine species. Most well-known types of organisms were decimated by this event, but only a few became completely extinct, including trilobites. The second most significant extinction was at the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary (K-Pg, a.k.a. the K-T extinction). At that time, about 75% of marine species disappeared. Again, a few well-known types of organisms disappeared altogether, including the dinosaurs (but not birds) and the pterosaurs. Many other types were badly decimated by that event but survived, and then flourished in the Paleogene. The K-Pg extinction is thought to have been caused by the impact of a large extraterrestrial body (10 to 15 kilometers across), but it is generally agreed that the other four Phanerozoic extinctions had other causes, although their exact nature is not clearly understood.
As already stated, it is no coincidence that the major extinctions all coincide with boundaries of geological periods and even eras. Geologists have placed most of the divisions of the geological time scale at points in the fossil record where there are major changes in the type of organisms observed, and most of these correspond with minor or major extinctions.
Figure \(\PageIndex{2}\) The application of bracketing to constrain the age of a rock based on several fossils. In this diagram, the colored bars represent the time range during which each of the four species (A, B, C, D) existed on Earth. Although each species lived for several million years, we can narrow down the likely age of the rock to just 700,000 years during which all four species coexisted.
If we can identify a fossil to the species level, or at least to the genus level, and we know the time period when the organism lived, we can assign a range of time to the rock. That range might be several million years because some organisms survived for a very long time. If the rock we are studying has several types of fossils in it, and we can assign time ranges to several of them, we might be able to narrow the time range for the age of the rock considerably. An example of this is given in Figure \(\PageIndex{2}\).
Some organisms survived for a very long time, and are not particularly useful for dating rocks. Sharks, for example, have been around for over 400 million years, and the great white shark has survived for 16 million years, so far. Organisms that lived for relatively short time periods are particularly useful for dating rocks, especially if they were distributed over a wide geographic area and so can be used to compare rocks from different regions. These are known as index fossils. There is no specific limit on how short the time span has to be to qualify as an index fossil. Some lived for millions of years, and others for much less than a million years.
Some well-studied groups of organisms qualify as biozone fossils because, although the genera and families lived over a long time, each species lived for a relatively short time and can be easily distinguished from others on the basis of specific features. For example, ammonites have a distinctive feature known as the suture line—where the internal shell layers that separate the individual chambers (septae) meet the outer shell wall, as shown in Figure \(\PageIndex{3}\). These suture lines are sufficiently variable to identify species that can be used to estimate the relative or absolute ages of the rocks in which they are found.
Figure \(\PageIndex{3}\) The septum of an ammonite (white part, left), and the suture lines where the septae meet the outer shell (right).
Foraminifera (small, carbonate-shelled marine organisms that originated during the Triassic and are still around today) are also useful biozone fossils. As shown in Figure \(\PageIndex{4}\), numerous different foraminifera lived during the Cretaceous. Some lasted for over 10 million years, but others for less than 1 million years. If the foraminifera in a rock can be identified to the species level, we can get a good idea of its age.

Exercise 8.2 Dating rocks using index fossils
Figure \(\PageIndex{5}\) shows the age ranges for some late Cretaceous inoceramid clams in the genus Mytiloides:
M. hattiru, 93.4 to 92.6 Ma
M. kossmati, 93.3 to 92.5 Ma
M. columbiarus, 93.2 to 92.5 Ma
M. subhercynius, 92.7 to 91.9 Ma
M. labiatus, 92.9 to 92.6 Ma
Using the bracketing method described above, determine the possible age range of the rock that these five organisms were found in.
How would that change if M. subhercynius was not present in these rocks?

Mexico's 'AMLO' Offers to Reduce Migration in Call with Trump
Presidential candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador waves as he addresses supporters after polls closed in the presidential election, in Mexico City, Mexico July 1, 2018. | Photo: Reuters
Relations between Trump and Lopez Obrador will be closely watched because Trump has regularly criticized Mexico.
U.S. President Donald Trump and Mexico's next leader, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador discussed immigration, trade and security issues in a phone call on Monday, the two leaders beginning a dialogue amid strained relations between the neighbors.
Mexico: AMLO Vows to Fight Corruption, 'Respect' NAFTA After Landslide Win
Lopez Obrador, a 64-year-old former mayor of Mexico City, won a landslide election victory on Sunday, dealing a crushing blow to establishment parties and becoming the first leftist to win the Mexican presidency since one-party rule ended in 2000.
In comments to reporters, Trump said he believed Lopez Obrador would help the United States secure its southern border. "I think the relationship would be a very good one. We'll see what happens, but I really do believe it's going to be a very good one," Trump said. He added that in the phone call, they had touched on a possible trade deal between the United States and Mexico.
Shortly afterward, Lopez Obrador gave his account of the call in a Twitter post, saying he had proposed a comprehensive deal to create jobs, lower immigration and improve security. Lopez Obrador sees the security plan as an alternative to Trump's border wall, a proposal he submitted during the election campaign last month.
In his account, Lopez Obrador did not mention trade, and Trump gave no further details on a possible trade pact. Talks between the United States, Canada and Mexico to revise the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) have been difficult.
Lopez Obrador, a onetime NAFTA skeptic who moderated his views in his third run at the presidency, said in a Mexican TV interview on Monday that he wanted a NAFTA deal that was good for Mexico. "We're going to accompany the current government in this negotiation, we're going to be very respectful, and we're going to support the signing of the agreement," he told Milenio TV. Lopez Obrador added he would discuss NAFTA with outgoing President Enrique Pena Nieto when they have their first meeting after the election, set for Tuesday.
Trump has been antagonistic to Mexico over trade and immigration. The current NAFTA talks began last year after Trump called for the agreement to be renegotiated to better serve U.S. interests.
Despite Trump's conciliatory tone, a White House aide on Monday repeated one of the U.S. leader's most controversial 2016 election campaign promises that he carried into his presidency. "In the case of Mexico, obviously we share a border with them (and) this president has made very clear about building that wall and having Mexico pay for it," the aide, Kellyanne Conway, said on Fox News.
Mexicans across the political spectrum have said Mexico will not pay for Trump's proposed wall along the southern U.S. border, which he has said is needed to keep out "illegal immigrants," which he associated in an openly racist statement with "drug-traffickers" and "rapists."
Lopez Obrador, who will take office on Dec. 1, won more than 53 percent of votes in Sunday's election, preliminary results showed, more than double the votes of his nearest rival. It was the biggest share of the vote in a Mexican presidential election since the early 1980s and gave him a strong mandate to address Mexico's domestic problems and face external challenges such as U.S. tariffs.
In his victory speech, Lopez Obrador sought to assure investors he would pursue prudent economic policies and central bank independence. His economic advisers repeated this message in a call on Monday with investors.
MORENA and its allies could win majorities in both chambers of Congress, according to projections based on results still trickling in. While that would make it easier for Lopez Obrador to work with Congress, the parties are expected to fall short of the two-thirds majority needed to roll back a five-year-old energy sector reform that has attracted oil majors such as Royal Dutch Shell to Mexico.

Iran hearings start over shooting down of Ukrainian airliner
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — An Iranian military court Sunday began a hearing over the military's shooting down of a Ukrainian passenger plane in 2020 that killed 176 people, the official IRNA news agency reported.
The report said ten military personnel — suspects from" various ranks" — were present at the session. Families of victims and their lawyers also attended the session, representing 103 legal complaints over the shooting down of Ukraine International Airlines flight number PS752.
The report quoted the unidentified judge as saying he hopes the court would issue a "precise, quick and serious" verdict, based on a "reasonable, fair, transparent, clear-cut and strong" procedure.
The court heard statements by lawyers of victim's families, and the report said the next session will be announced following further investigations by the prosecutor.
The report did not identify the suspects. Sunday's session was the first hearing since the incident, nearly 22 months ago.
In April, a prosecutor said ten officials have been indicted over the case. That came a month after Iran faced withering international criticism for releasing a final report that blamed human error but named no-one responsible.
In January 2020, following three days of denial in the face of mounting evidence, Iran finally acknowledged that its paramilitary Revolutionary Guard mistakenly downed the Ukrainian plane with two surface-to-air missiles.
In preliminary reports on the disaster in 2020, Iranian authorities blamed an air defense operator who they said mistook the Boeing 737-800 for an American cruise missile.
It happened on the same day Iran launched a ballistic missile attack on US troops in Iraq in retaliation for an American drone strike that killed a top Iranian general.
Later, Guard officials publicly apologized for the incident. But the hesitancy of Iran to elaborate on what happened shows the power the force wields.


The medium fabricator is the thing you get from the landing pad at the start of the game, or you can make one using a small fabricator. If you've unlocked a rover, you probably made a research module at the medium fab.
There are currently 3 'printers' in game; the small & medium fab, and the vehicle bay. It's fairly simple to get all 3. Anything you unlock will be at one of the printers.
F1 and the tutorial have some hints to the basic mechanics of the game.
Again we cannot find the medium fab after unlocking it. I guess we (2 players trying to interpret it all) just don't get it.... Cannot find these things or fabricate anything. Videos, tutorial and wiki not really helped as the wiki describes what things are but not how to use them. A very disappointing purchase, will rate it as such. Wish we could get a refund.
4: Don't forget the backpack printer. 5ish: The vehicle bay can make different things depending on whether the area in front of it is empty or has a vehicle body/platform with open slots.
Sorry you had such a rough time. If you are on Steam, DM me here and perhaps we can get into a game so I can show you around a bit.
Again we cannot find the medium fab after unlocking it.
It's unlocked when you start. The big circle landing pad next to the habitat has a panel. Interact with it, and press the big green button to request a starter package. You'll get two packages from the sky.
Move the medium platform onto the black surface, deploy it, then plug it in to the habitat, then move the fabricator onto the platform and deploy it.
Interact with the medium fabricator and select your recipe. Add the resources. Start printing.
If I were a multiplayer player I'd offer to help more too.

\section{Introduction}

A \emph{Gurari{\u\i} space}, constructed by
Gurari{\u\i}~\cite{Gurarii} in 1965, is a separable Banach space
$\G$ satisfying the following condition: given finite dimensional
Banach spaces $X\subs Y$, given $\eps > 0$, and given an isometric
linear embedding $\map fX\G$ there exists an injective linear
operator $\map gY\G$ extending $f$ and satisfying $\norm g \cdot
\norm {g^{-1}} < 1 + \eps$. It is not hard to prove straight from
this definition that such a space is unique up to isomorphism of
norm arbitrarily close to one. The question whether the
Gurari{\u\i} space is unique up to isometry remained open for some
time. It was answered affirmatively by Lusky~\cite{Lusky} in 1976
using deep techniques developed by Lazar and
Lindenstrauss~\cite{LazLin}. Subsequently, another proof of
uniqueness was given by Henson using model theoretic methods of
continuous logic. (This proof remains unpublished.) The natural
question whether there is an elementary proof of uniqueness
occurred to several mathematicians. This question was made current
by recent increased interest in universal homogeneous structures
and their automorphism groups; see, for example, \cite{KPT} and
\cite{Mel}. The aim of this note is to provide just such a simple
and elementary proof of isometric uniqueness of the Gurari{\u\i}
space. This proof is given in Section~\ref{S:uni}. In
Section~\ref{S:univ}, we give an elementary proof showing
isometric universality of the Gurari{\u\i} space among separable
Banach spaces. Our argument uses only the basic Gurari{\u\i}
property.

In order to state the theorem precisely, we introduce some
notions. Let $X$, $Y$ be Banach spaces, $\eps>0$. A linear
operator $\map fXY$ is an \emph{$\eps$-isometry} if for $x\in X$
with $\norm{x}=1$
$$ (1+\eps)^{-1} < \norm {f(x)}|< 1+\eps.$$ We use strict inequalities for
the sake of convenience. In particular, in the case of finite
dimensional spaces, every $\eps$-isometry is an $\eps'$-isometry
for some $0 < \eps' < \eps$. Note that the inverse of a bijective
$\eps$-isometry is again an $\eps$-isometry. By an \emph{isometry}
we mean a linear operator $\map fXY$ that is an $\eps$-isometry
for every $\eps>0$, that is, $\norm {f(x)} = \norm x$ holds for
every $x\in X$. (A word of caution about our terminology may be in
place: in the literature, such functions are often called
\emph{isometric embeddings}, with the word ``isometry" reserved
for a \emph{bijective} isometric embedding.)

We will give a proof of the following theorem.

\begin{tw}\label{tmejn}
Let $E$, $F$ be separable Gurari{\u\i} spaces, $\eps>0$. Assume
$X\subs E$ is a finite dimensional space and $\map fXF$ is an
$\eps$-isometry. Then there exists a bijective isometry $\map hEF$
such that $\norm {h\rest X - f} < \eps$.
\end{tw}

By taking $X$ to be the trivial space, we obtain the following
corollary.

\begin{wn}[Lusky~\cite{Lusky}]
The Gurari{\u\i} space is unique up to a bijective isometry.
\end{wn}

\section{Proof of uniqueness of the Gurari{\u\i} space}\label{S:uni}

\begin{lm}\label{llawofreturn}
Let $X$, $Y$ be finite dimensional Banach spaces and let $\map
fXY$ be an $\eps$-isometry, for some $\eps>0$. There exist a finite
dimensional Banach space $Z$ and isometries $\map iXZ$ and $\map
jYZ$ such that $\norm { j \cmp f - i } \leq \eps$.
\end{lm}

\begin{pf}
By $\anorm_X$, $\anorm_Y$ we denote the norms of $X$ and $Y$,
respectively.

First assume that $f$ is onto, that is, $f[X]=Y$. Consider the
space $X\oplus Y$ and the canonical embeddings $\map iX{X \oplus
Y}$ and $\map j{Y}{ X \oplus Y}$. We aim to define a suitable norm
$\anorm'$ on $X\oplus Y$. With $x^*\in S_X^*$ associate the
functional ${\ovr x^*} = x^* f^{-1}$ on $Y$. Define
$$\phi_X(x,y) = \sup_{x^* \in S_X^*} \left| x^*(x) + \frac1{\norm{\ovr x^*}_Y^*} \ovr x^*(y)\right|.$$
It is clear that $\phi_X$ is a seminorm on $X \oplus Y$. Observe
that $\phi_X(x,0) = \norm{x}_X$ and $\phi_X(0,y) \loe \norm{y}_Y$.
Interchanging the roles of $X$ and $Y$ and of $f\colon X\to Y$ and
$f^{-1}\colon Y\to X$ define in an analogous way $\phi_Y$ so that
it is a seminorm on $X \oplus Y$ such that $\phi_Y(x,0) \loe
\norm{x}_X$ and $\phi_Y(0,y) = \norm{y}_Y$. Finally, define
$$\norm {(x,y)}' = \max \Bigl\{ \phi_X(x,y), \phi_Y(x,y),  \eps_1\norm{x}_X,
\eps_1 \norm{y}_Y \Bigr\},$$ where
$\eps_1 = \frac{\eps}{1+\eps}$.
Now $\anorm'$ is a norm on $X \oplus
Y$ and, since $\eps_1 \leq 1$, we have that $\norm{(x,0)}' =
\norm{x}_X$ and $\norm{(0,y)}' = \norm{y}_Y$. Hence, $i$ and $j$
are isometries.

We check that $\norm{jf(x) - i(x)}' \leq \eps$ for $x\in S_X$. Set
$u = jf(x) - i(x) = (-x, f(x))$. From the inequalities
$(1+\eps)^{-1} < \norm{ x^*f^{-1} }_{Y}^* < 1+\eps$ for $x^*\in
S_X^*$, we obtain
\begin{align*}
\phi_X(u) &= \sup_{x^*\in S_X^*}\left| x^*(-x) + \frac1{\norm{\ovr
x^*}_Y^*} \ovr x^*(f(x)) \right|
= \sup_{x^*\in S_X^*} \left(\left|  \frac1{\norm{x^* f^{-1}}_{Y}^*} - 1 \right|\cdot |x^*(x)| \right) \\
&\leq \sup_{x^*\in S_X^*} \left|  \frac1{\norm{x^* f^{-1}}_{Y}^*}
- 1 \right| \leq \eps.
\end{align*}
Similarly, from $(1+\eps)^{-1} < \norm{ y^*f }_{X}^* < 1+\eps$ for
$y^*\in S_Y^*$, we get
\begin{align*}
\phi_Y(u) &= \sup_{y^*\in S_Y^*}\left| y^*(f(x)) +
\frac1{\norm{\ovr y^*}_X^*} \ovr y^*(-x) \right|
= \sup_{y^*\in S_Y^*} \left(\left| 1- \frac1{\norm{y^* f}_{X}^*}  \right|\cdot |y^*(f(x))| \right) \\
&\leq \sup_{y^*\in S_Y^*} \left(\left| 1- \frac1{\norm{y^*
f}_{X}^*} \right|\cdot \norm{y^*f}_X^* \right)= \sup_{y^*\in
S_Y^*} \left| \norm{y^* f}_{X}^*-1 \right| \leq \eps.
\end{align*}
Finally, since
\[
\eps_1 \norm{-x}_X \leq \eps\; \hbox{ and }\; \eps_1
\norm{f(x)}_Y\leq \frac{\eps}{1+\eps}(1+\eps) =\eps,
\]
we conclude that ${\norm u}' \leq \eps$, as required.

Now we consider the general case when $f$ is not necessarily onto.
The conclusion above gives a norm $\anorm'$ on $X\oplus f[X]$.
Take $(X\oplus f[X])\oplus Y$ regarded as the $\ell_1$ sum of the
Banach spaces $(X\oplus f[X],\, \anorm')$ and $(Y,\, \anorm_Y)$.
Pass to the quotient Banach space
\[
Z = ((X\oplus f[X])\oplus Y)/\{ (0, f(v), -f(v))\colon v\in X\}
\]
with the quotient norm and with the canonical embeddings of $X$
and $Y$. This space is as required. Note that $Z$ is canonically
isometric to $X\oplus Y$ equipped with the norm
\[
\norm{(x,y)} = \inf_{v\in X} \Bigl(\norm{(x,f(v))}' +
\norm{y-f(v))}_Y\Bigr). \qedhere
\]
\end{pf}

\begin{lm}\label{lgherik}
Let $E$ be a Gurari{\u\i} space and let $\map fXY$ be an
$\eps$-isometry, where $X$ is a finite dimensional subspace of $E$
and $\eps>0$. Then for every $\delta > 0$ there exists a
$\delta$-isometry $\map gYE$ such that $\norm { g\cmp f - {\rm
id}_X } < \eps$.
\end{lm}

\begin{pf}
Choose $0 < \eps' < \eps$ so that $f$ is an $\eps'$-isometry.
Choose $0 < \delta' < \delta$ such that $(1 + \delta')\eps' <
\eps$. By Lemma~\ref{llawofreturn}, there exist a finite
dimensional space $Z$ and isometries $\map iXZ$ and $\map jYZ$
satisfying $\norm{j\cmp f - i} \leq \eps'$. Since $E$ is
Gurari{\u\i}, there exists a $\delta'$-isometry $\map hZE$ such
that $hj(x)=x$ for $x\in X$. Let $g = h\cmp j$. Clearly, $g$ is a
$\delta$-isometry. Finally, given $x\in S_X$, we have
$$\norm{ gf(x) - x } = \norm {hjf(x) - hi(x)} < (1+\delta') \norm{ jf(x) - i(x)}
\leq (1+\delta')\eps' < \eps,$$ as required.
\end{pf}

\begin{pf}[Proof of Theorem~\ref{tmejn}]
Fix a sequence $\ciag \eps$ of positive real numbers. The precise
conditions on $\ciag \eps$ will be specified later. We define
inductively sequences of linear operators $\ciag{f}$, $\ciag g$
and finite dimensional subspaces $\ciag{X}$, $\ciag{Y}$ of $E$ and
$F$, respectively, so that the following conditions are satisfied:
\begin{enumerate}
    \item[(0)] $X_0 = X$, $Y_0 = \img fX$, and $f_0 = f$;
    \item[(1)] $\map {f_n} {X_{n}} {Y_{n}}$ is an $\eps_{n}$-isometry;
    \item[(2)] $\map {g_n} {Y_{n}} {X_{n+1}}$ is an $\eps_{n+1}$-isometry;
    \item[(3)] $\norm{g_n f_n(x) - x} \loe \eps_{n} \norm x$ for $x\in X_{n}$;
    \item[(4)] $\norm{f_{n+1}g_n(y) - y} \loe \eps_{n+1} \norm y$ for $y\in
    Y_{n}$;
    \item[(5)] $X_n\subseteq X_{n+1}$, $Y_n\subseteq Y_{n+1}$,
    $\bigcup_nX_n$ and $\bigcup_nY_n$ are dense in $E$ and $F$,
    respectively.
\end{enumerate}
Condition (0) tells us how to start the inductive construction. We
pick $\eps_0>0$ so that (1) holds for $n=0$ and $\eps_0< \eps$.
Suppose $f_i$, $X_i$, $Y_i$, for $i\leq n$, and $g_i$, for $i <
n$, have been constructed. We easily find $g_n$, $X_{n+1}$,
$f_{n+1}$ and $Y_{n+1}$, in this order, using Lemma~\ref{lgherik}.
Condition (5) can be secured by defining $X_{n+1}$ and $Y_{n+1}$
to be appropriately enlarged $g_n[Y_n]$ and $f_{n+1}[X_{n+1}]$,
respectively. Thus, the construction can be carried out.

Fix $\Ntr$ and $x\in X_{n}$ with $\norm x = 1$. Using (4) and (1),
we get
$$\norm{ f_{n+1} g_n f_n(x) - f_n(x) } \loe \eps_{n+1} \norm{f_n(x)} \loe \eps_{n+1}(1 + \eps_{n}).$$
Using (1) and (3), we get
$$\norm{ f_{n+1} g_n f_n(x) - f_{n+1}(x) } \loe \norm{f_{n+1}} \cdot \norm{ g_n f_n(x) - x} \loe (1 + \eps_{n+1})\cdot
\eps_{n}.$$ These inequalities give
\begin{equation}
\norm{ f_n(x) - f_{n+1}(x) } \loe \eps_{n} + 2\eps_n \eps_{n+1} +
\eps_{n+1}. \tag{$\dagger$}\label{eqsztylet}
\end{equation}
Now it is clear that if the series $\sum_{\Ntr}\eps_n$ converges,
then the sequence $\sett{f_n(x)}{\Ntr}$ is Cauchy. Let us make a
stronger assumption, namely that
\begin{equation}
2\eps_0\eps_1+\eps_1+\sum_{n=1}^\infty (\eps_{n} +
2\eps_n\eps_{n+1} + \eps_{n+1}) < \eps - \eps_0.
\tag{$\ddagger$}\label{eqssztilett}
\end{equation}
Given $x\in \bigcup_{\Ntr}X_n$, define $h(x) = \lim_{n \goe
m}f_n(x)$, where $m$ is such that $x\in X_{m}$. Then $h$ is an
$\eps_n$-isometry for every $\Ntr$, hence it is an isometry.
Consequently, it uniquely extends to an isometry on $E$, which we
denote also by $h$. Furthermore, (\ref{eqsztylet}) and
(\ref{eqssztilett}) give
$$\norm{f(x) - h(x)} \loe
\sum_{n=0}^\infty \eps_{n} + 2\eps_n\eps_{n+1} + \eps_{n+1} <
\eps.$$

It remains to see that $h$ is a bijection. To this end, we check
as before that $\sett{g_n(y)}{n\goe m}$ is a Cauchy sequence for
every $y\in Y_{m}$. Once this is done, we obtain an isometry
$g_\infty$ defined on $F$. Conditions (3) and (4) tell us that
$g_\infty \cmp h = {\rm id}_E$ and $h \cmp g_\infty = {\rm id}_F$,
and the proof is complete.
\end{pf}

\section{On universality of the Gurari{\u\i} space}\label{S:univ}

It is known that the Gurari{\u\i} space is isometrically universal
among separable Banach spaces. Indeed, as pointed out by
Gevorkjan~\cite{Gevork}, universality follows from the results of
Lazar and Lindenstrauss~\cite{LazLin} and Michael and
Pe{\l}czy\'nski~\cite{MP}: the dual of the Gurari{\u\i} space is a
non-separable $L_1$ space, therefore the Gurari{\u\i} space
contains an isometric copy of $C([0,1])$. The reader may also
consult the recent paper \cite{Avi} for another approach.

We conclude with applying our method to proving universality
directly, without referring to the structure of the dual or to
universality of other Banach spaces.

\begin{lm}\label{ltgereq}
Let $X_0, X_1, Y_0$ be finite dimensional Banach spaces such that
$X_0 \subs X_1$ and let $\map f{X_0}{Y_0}$ be an $\eps$-isometry,
where $\eps > 0$. Then there exist a finite dimensional Banach
space $Y_1$ containing $Y_0$ and an isometry $\map g{X_1}{Y_1}$
such that
$$\norm { g\rest X_0 - f } < \eps.$$
\end{lm}

\begin{pf}
A standard and well known amalgamation property for Banach spaces (already used in the proof of Lemma~\ref{llawofreturn} above)
says that there exist $W\sups Y_0$ and an $\eps$-isometry $\map
{f'}{X_1}W$ such that $f' \rest X_0 = f$. More precisely, $W =
(X_1 \oplus Y_0)\by \Delta$, where $X_1\oplus Y_0$ is endowed with
the $\ell_1$-norm and
$$\Delta = \setof{(z,-f(z))}{z\in X_0}.$$
The space $Y_0$ is naturally identified with the subspace of $W$
and $f'(x)$ is the equivalence class of $(x,0)$ (where $x\in
X_1$).

Finally, the desired isometry $g$ is provided by
Lemma~\ref{llawofreturn}.
\end{pf}

\begin{tw}
Every separable Banach space can be isometrically embedded into
the Gurari{\u\i} space.
\end{tw}

\begin{pf}
Let $\G$ denote the Gurari{\u\i} space. Fix a separable Banach
space $X$ and let $\ciag X$ be a chain of finite dimensional
spaces such that $X_0=\sn0$ and $\bigcup_{\Ntr}X_n$ is dense in
$X$. In case $X$ is finite dimensional, we set $X_n = X$ for $n >
0$. We inductively define $\map {f_n}{X_n}\G$ so that
\begin{enumerate}
    \item[(i)] $f_n$ is a $2^{-n}$-isometry,
    \item[(ii)] $\norm{ f_{n+1} \rest X_n - f_n } < 2\cdot 2^{-n}$,
\end{enumerate}
for every $\Ntr$. We set $f_0 = 0$. Suppose $f_n$ has already been
defined. Let $Y = \img {f_n}{X_n}$. Using Lemma~\ref{ltgereq}, we
find a finite dimensional space $W \sups Y$ and an isometry $\map
g{X_{n+1}}W$ such that $\norm {g\rest X_n - f_n} < 2^{-n}$. Using
the property of the Gurari{\u\i} space, we find a
$2^{-(n+1)}$-isometry $\map hW\G$ such that $h \rest Y$ is the
inclusion $Y\subs \G$. Now set $f_{n+1} = h\cmp g$. Given $x\in
X_n$ with $\norm x = 1$, we have that $\norm{g(x) - f_n(x)} <
2^{-n}$ and hence
$$\norm{f_{n+1}(x) - f_n(x)} = \norm{h(g(x)) - h(f_n(x))} < (1 + 2^{-(n+1)})\cdot 2^{-n} \loe 2\cdot 2^{-n}.$$
This shows (ii). Finally, we obtain a sequence $\ciag f$ that is
pointwise Cauchy on each $X_n$. By (i) and (ii), $f_\infty(x) =
\lim_{n\to\infty}f_n(x)$ is a well-defined linear isometry on
$\bigcup_{\Ntr}X_n$. This isometry extends uniquely to an isometry
$\map fX\G$.

Tandav Review: Dimple Kapadia is the real 'hero', Saif Ali Khan is a little faded
January 15, 2021 rubysharma823 Breaking News, Movie Review 0
Tandav Review: Saif Ali Khan's web series 'Tandav' has been released. You too can watch it, before watching it, definitely know how the series is.
Director: Ali Abbas Zafar
Artists: Saif Ali Khan, Dimple Kapadia, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayub, Sunil Grover, Sara Jane Diaz, Kritika Kamra, Tigmanshu Dhulia
Acting in the same series as 'Tandav', the name of the film is impressive, but unlike the name, the story is slow. This web series is a political drama. In the series, it is fully shown how the political equation changes from time to time. How cheating and deceit in politics happens at every turn is shown mainly in this story. The leaders' love for the chair and then the game of playing tricks for the chair is shown well in this film. It is clear after watching the series that this chair play is not right or wrong, it is politics and it is for such power and strength.
Now, let us explain how the story begins. As soon as the series (Tandav) starts, it is written on the screen, 'Bhai Hum To Cheat Kha Gaya …' The story begins as soon as the rule of right-wing party Jan Lok Dal (JLD) is shown in the country. . Jan Lok Dal is going to win the general election for the third time and this time also it is almost certain that Devaki Nandan (Tigmanshu Dhulia) will become the Prime Minister, but just before the results of the election, news of Devaki Nandan's death comes. In such a situation, now the contender for the post of Prime Minister is Samki Pratap Singh (Saif Ali Khan), son of Devki Nandan. But they say that no one knows how the camel will turn in politics. The political equation changes in such a way that Anuradha Kishore (Dimple Kapadia), who has been 'special' for Devaki Nandan for thirty years, becomes Dimpla Kapadia PM.
Kahani turns from here. How the political game goes, the series revolves around this. With this, an attempt has been made to show the status of the country in the series. Two aspects of the country are shown in the series. The first aspect, where Shining India, the sixty-knot of politicians and industrialists, is shown. On the other side is the country where the general public, farmers and laborers are struggling.
Along with this, emphasis has been laid on student politics in the series (Tandav). It has been shown how people raise their voice in the streets of the university and its echo reaches across the country. The film shows the recent politics of the country, where you will hear a police officer in the film saying, 'Now the terrorists are not coming from across the border. They are being prepared in these universities. In this student politics, the coin of Shiva Shekhar (Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub) is shown flashing, due to which people set high expectations.
It has become a matter of what the story is. Now come what are the flaws in this series. The 'Tandava' was confined to the turmoil of politics, the story does not go into much depth. The common man of the country also understands the politics shown in the series. The opening part is very slow for the series. After five-six episodes, the series thrills. So people need a lot of patience to watch it, but once the story catches the flow, you will not be able to lose sight because the story may be a bit dull, but the acting is good. There are some incidents, which you will be able to relate to the real events.
In the series (Tandav), Muslim citizens are shown a soft target of power. At the same time, the angle of student politics is running on the track, then it seems to get derailed somewhere. At the same time, the peasant movement is also shown in the story. One drawback is that all the events are completely separate from each other and it is not possible for an audience to see all of them by relaying them, because in reality these things have happened in different time frames. Some characters and events are shown in the documentary style. It is a mere coincidence that you will find some things inspired by true events, but the story is completely fictional.
The most effective of all artistes is Dimple Kapadia. You will feel connected to his character and will not be able to remove his eyes. At the same time, Saif Ali Khan's work is also good. He has got the advantage of being a mail lead, but he is not settling as a dictator, but in the last parts of the series, his character appears in front of Nikhar and he is seen playing the role of King Maker. Sunil Grover's character may not be very big, but his work is fantastic. The work of other artists is also very good. Along with this, there is a glimpse of Pataudi Palace in the background in the series. Camerawork and character outfits are very good.

The UNESCO World Heritage Committee has decided to include the Champagne Slopes, Houses and Cellars on its world heritage list. A historic decision has been made! The 21 representatives of the State Parties to the UNESCO World Heritage Convention unanimously voted in favour of including the Champagne Slopes, Houses and Cellars on the World Heritage List in the Living Cultural Landscapes category. The committee members recognized their Exceptional Universal Value and deemed that the protection and management conditions for the proposed property had been fulfilled.
The emotion was palpable among the French representatives from UNESCO, the Ministries of Culture and the Environment, and the delegation from the Champagne Region. "A feeling of great satisfaction and collective delight! My thoughts immediately turn to all those who worked on the application, all the partners who supported this slightly crazy undertaking, and the local people whose area has just received worldwide recognition. Inclusion on the list is a form of recognition but also an undertaking to the world's nations, so we must ensure that we are worthy of it. We are duty-bound to preserve and maintain this landscape, know-how and heritage so that we can pass them on unspoilt to future generations. We have a date with history, our very own history!" said a delighted Pierre Cheval, president of the Association Paysages du Champagne, which has spent eight years putting together and managing the area's application.
The Exceptional Universal Value of the Champagne vineyard cultural landscape, the birthplace of champagne wine, has now been recognized with its inscription on UNESCO's World Heritage List. And in a broader sense, all the work done to produce, make and publicize champagne wine passed down the generations and preserved in the 320 AOC champagne districts located in the five French départements of Marne, Aube, Aisne, Haute-Marne and Seine-et-Marne.

Light your lamp
June 29, 2020 JT Twissel
My bedtime reading lately has been this collection of short stories that my father gave me shortly before his death.
The stories were selected by John Updike, a man whose writing always seemed aimed at my father's generation … but he did win a Pulitzer and so what the heck do I know? It was edited by Katrina Kennison who now lives up in Northern New Hampshire where she focuses on "celebrating the gift of each ordinary day." One can only surmise that editing the likes of John Updike for a publishing giant like Houghton Mifflin would make anyone long for an ordinary day.
Here is the list of authors whose work was selected as the best of the last century.
How many names do you recognize? I recognized 29. Many, to be honest, because the author is better known for his or her novels. But as I navigate these disparate voices, I find myself most intrigued by those "lost literary gems," so called because the author's name, once written in sand, has been washed out to sea.
Last night I read "Wild Plums" by Grace Stone Coates, published originally in 1929 in The Frontier: a Magazine of the West. It's the story of a young girl forbidden to go on a plum-picking campout with a family her immigrant father considers vulgar and untrustworthy.
Grace Stone Coates
As the family returns home with a wagon full of wild plums, they throw a few to the young girl as they pass her home. She takes them inside to her mother who tells her they're not worth eating. This is the unforgettable ending to the story:
"I went out quietly, knowing I would never tell her that they were strange on my tongue as wild honey, holding the warmth of sand that sun had fingered, and the mystery of water under leaning boughs.
For I had eaten one at the road."
From "Wild Plums"
From her two sentence bio in the appendix I learnt that Grace Stone Coates was an editor for The Frontier: a Magazine of the West who spent most of her life in Montana. Well, that wasn't enough for me so I went to the google machine.
As to what forces and events actually created this splendid writer, well, it depends the source. According to Wikipedia, her father was a well educated German forced by circumstances to live in the rural midwest where she was born in 1881. She attended three different universities without taking a degree and then moved to Butte Montana where she managed to get a teaching certificate. In 1910 she married and moved to Martinsdale, described as a "tiny ranching community" where her husband ran the general store and she began writing. She was encouraged by H.G. Merriam an academician who promoted regionalism (writing focused on "linguistic features peculiar to a specific region") to publish a few books of poems which led to the novel "Dark Cherries," published by Knopf in 1929.
The most recent edition, published by Bison
However, after her husband's death in 1930 she gave up "serious writing" and focused on maintaining correspondence with fellow writers William Saroyan and Frank Bird Linderman. She also began to hallucinate and wander the streets late at night. Finally in 1963 the townsfolk intervened and moved her to a retirement home in Bozeman Montana. The Wikipedia article implies that, after her husband's death Coates went into a steady decline and gave up writing. However, the real reason for her decline is more complicated according to Elaine Showalter who studied women writers of that time and place.
To summarize Ms. Showalter's theory, Coates had a miserable childhood with a father who was either overbearing or never around. She lived most of her adult life in what she described as "an alien world" of isolation with a husband who more than likely frowned on her writing. She went into a decline after her second novel was declined by Knopf as being "unsellable." That second novel, said to be auto-biographical, did not survive. Fortunately her letters were saved by a young woman (Lee Rostad) who came to know her in the 1950s. Rostad used those letters to write a biography of "the brilliant, passionate woman behind the demure housewife who wrote the local news for the county newspapers." Unfortunately that book is out of print.
Anyway, now you know more than you probably wanted (if you stuck with me) about an obscure, little-known writer. It all brings me back to this firefly by R. Tagore.
So, go ahead and light your lamp. You never know who it will reach or when.

I recognized 17. I would've thought that Raymond Chandler would've been on that list. That book is precious on many levels.
I never quite got Updike so I can't defend his choices!
If you've never liked Updike, then you must read "Gesturing," a heartbreaking and gorgeous story that he published in Playboy of all places. Reason I suspect is that The New Yorker where virtually all his other stories appeared was a for a long time seriously prudish and he uses one word in this story, and not in any way a crude way, that in those days when this story appeared would have been cut by New Yorker editors. If you do read it, let me know what you think. xo Mary
Luckily that story is one he included in the anthology! I'm old enough to remember when Playboy would publish stories and articles that other magazines were squeamish about. They also used to have the best cartoonists.
Anonymole says:
Just the name "Montana" evokes a passion for the wilds and the wilders, even more so than Alaska. My father was born 40 miles from the Canadian border, my sister twenty miles west. My toddler days were spent in that harsh climate with a grandmother who was kinder than she should have been.
That Coates had a miserable childhood in that place is no surprise.
In Dark Cherries (which is written from a child's point of view) the characters based on her father and mother have a pretty sick relationship. The darkness refers to her father's secret past. I'm going to try to get my hands on a copy of the book because I'm very curious!
Hi. One of the writers in your book is Tim O'Brien. I read one of his novels recently: The Things They Carried. It's very good.
I'll have to check out his story next. Thanks!
Mary L. Tabor says:
I adore this collection of short stories–and I teach from it! It's a brilliant collection and this is a terrific post. Kudos. –Mary Tabor
Thanks Mary. For the most part, I agree with Updike selection.

Coates sounds pitiful. I'm glad she had the creative outlet of writing for herself, for better or worse.
I recognized Dorothy Parker and immediately started to chuckle.
You're only pitiful if you can't create meaning from pain. Perhaps she liked her hallucinations and nightly romps through town and her letters to other esteemed writers of her time. Artists in the end always howl in rags at the moon.
V interesting Jan. The rabbit holes we go down can be addictive, can't they!? I will have look at the list on a bigger screen and see who I know.
It's interesting to me because I hate writing bios but the first thing I do after reading an intriguing story is want to know more about the author.
I'm not really into bios and if i read fiction i prefer the author to remain a mystery.
Most of these are American writers, not surprisingly, I think short stories are a good introduction to new works.
I've heard of 26 of the authors, but haven't read anything by some of them. I don't have any collections of short stories and feel like I'm missing something because of it. Thanks for giving me a good ides for my reading. I like the idea of letting your light shine. I try to do that, but find that no matter what I say or do someone is willing to throw shade on it. More so lately.
Me too. A lot of the writers are better known as celebrities and I doubt many people have read their fiction. So far I've been more impressed by the unknown writers than say, Hemingway's addition.
I was an English major and I only recognize 24 of those writers and read only 20 of them.
Also, Updike's A&P is one of my favorite short stories. The descriptions.
I have become more interested in biography with age, and I find I'm just so curious about how people lived — no matter who, but writers especially.
My focus was on the Victorian writers (99% British) so aside from the biggies – Hemingway, Williams, Fitzgerald and a few others – I might recognize the names but couldn't tell you what they wrote about!
Duke Miller says:
Damn, I finally beat you at something: I know 31 of the writers. My question is how could Graham Green not be on the list? Maybe too Catholic or to bigoted, still "The Heart of the Matter", "The Comedians", "The End of the Affair", and "The Honorary Counsel", along with a slew of others, are great books. Also, where is John le Carre? If the guy had only written "The Spy Who Came in from the Cold", I'd put him on the list, but there are so many more from him that were good, if not great. As for Updike, the Rabbit series has forever iced his name as a great one for me. I felt the first Rabbit was about me. Always the mark of a great writer, "You see, I know who you are." With the short story called "The Swimmer", Cheever took his place in my mind. Oh well, writers talking about other writers is sort of like talking about our dreams or medical condition. It is necessary, but very personal and we might lose the listener after a while. Thanks for this post. It jogged a few memories. Love. Duke
Duke, The reason Graham Greene, whose works I also love, is not in the list is that he was British! All these are stories that were from BEST AMERICAN SHORT STORIES. –MARY
I have this one! Taught from it a few times xo

FDA orders food industry not to use remove Artificial Trans Fats from food
US FDA orders food industry not to use remove Artificial Trans Fats from food
The FDA takes step to remove artificial Trans fats in processed foods
Based on a thorough review of the scientific evidence, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration today finalized its determination that partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs), the primary dietary source of artificial trans fat in processed foods, are not "generally recognized as safe" or GRAS for use in human food.
Food manufacturers will have three years to remove PHOs from products.
"The FDA's action on this major source of artificial trans fat demonstrates the agency's commitment to the heart health of all Americans," said FDA's Acting Commissioner Stephen Ostroff, M.D. "This action is expected to reduce coronary heart disease and prevent thousands of fatal heart attacks every year."
This determination will significantly reduce the use of PHOs, the major source of artificial Trans fats, in the food supply.
In 2013, the FDA made a tentative determination that PHOs could no longer be considered GRAS and is finalizing that determination after considering public comments.
Since 2006, manufacturers have been required to include Trans fat content information on the Nutrition Facts label of foods.
Between 2003 and 2012, the FDA estimates that consumer Trans fat consumption decreased about 78 percent and that the labeling rule and industry reformulation of foods were key factors in informing healthier consumer choices and reducing Trans fat in foods.
While Trans fat intake has significantly decreased, the current intake remains a public health concern.
Trans fat intake has been linked to an increased risk of coronary heart disease by contributing to the buildup of plaque inside the arteries that may cause a heart attack. For this reason, the Food and Drug Administration requires that the Trans fat content of food be declared on the Nutrition Facts label to help consumers determine how each food contributes to their overall dietary intake of Trans fat. Many processed foods contain partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs), the major dietary source of industrially-produced Trans fat in processed food.
No Longer Generally Recognized as Safe
In 2013, FDA made a preliminary determination that PHOs were no longer "generally recognized as safe," or GRAS, for short. FDA is finalizing that action and determining that PHOs are not GRAS for any use in human food.
Trans fat wouldn't be completely gone, because it also occurs naturally in meat and dairy products. It is also present at very low levels in other edible oils, where it is unavoidably produced during the manufacturing process. In addition, companies can petition FDA for specific uses of certain partially hydrogenated oils.
The Institute of Medicine recommends that consumption of Trans fat be as low as possible while consuming a nutritionally-adequate diet.
"Studies show that diet and nutrition play a key role in preventing chronic health problems, such as cardiovascular disease and today's action goes hand in hand with other FDA initiatives to improve the health of Americans, including updating the nutrition facts label," said Susan Mayne, Ph.D., director of the FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition. "This determination is based on extensive research into the effects of PHOs, as well as input from all stakeholders received during the public comment period."
The FDA has set a compliance period of three years. This will allow companies to either reformulate products without PHOs and/or petition the FDA to permit specific uses of PHOs. Following the compliance period, no PHOs can be added to human food unless they are otherwise approved by the FDA.
The FDA encourages consumers seeking to reduce Trans fat intake to check a food's ingredient list for partially hydrogenated oils to determine whether or not a product contains PHOs. Currently, foods are allowed to be labeled as having "0" grams trans fat if they contain less than 0.5 grams of trans fat per serving, including PHOs, the primary dietary source of artificial trans fat in processed foods.
Many companies have already been working to remove PHOs from processed foods and the FDA anticipates that many may eliminate them ahead of the three-year compliance date.
The FDA, an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, protects the public health by assuring the safety, effectiveness, and security of human and veterinary drugs, vaccines and other biological products for human use, and medical devices. The agency also is responsible for the safety and security of nation's food supply, cosmetics, dietary supplements, products that give off electronic radiation, and for regulating tobacco products.

Delta Groove welcomes Monster Mike Welch and Mike Ledbetter!
By Delta Groove
In New Releases
2017-03-022017-03-02http://deltagroovemusic.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/cat-icon3.pngDelta Groove Music 200px200px
Please join us in welcoming Boston-based blues guitarist Monster Mike Welch and Chicago's own Mike Ledbetter to the Delta Groove Family! Their dynamic debut album, "Right Place, Right Time," with special guest Laura Chavez is set for release on Friday, April, 21st, 2017 and is poised to take the blues world by storm!
With over 25 years under his belt, Boston-based blues guitarist Monster Mike Welch is handily considered a seasoned veteran of the international blues scene at just a mere 37 years old. Adorned with the nickname "Monster Mike" by actor/comedian Dan Aykroyd at the tender age of 13, Welch has since carved out a successful living as a highly accomplished and in-demand guitarist. To date, Welch has released six albums under his own name and in 2001, he joined the ranks of one of New England's most beloved blues institutions, Sugar Ray and the Bluetones. In addition, Welch has performed and recorded with Duke Robillard, Nick Moss, Johnny Winter, Darrell Nulisch and more recently, the Knickerbocker All-Stars, which has featured among others, Jimmie Vaughan and the aforementioned Robillard. No stranger to the Delta Groove family, Welch also appears on recordings by the Mannish Boys and Sugaray Rayford, as well as playing a central role in the critically acclaimed album, "Fifty Shades of Blue," by Anthony Geraci and the Boston Blues All Stars. Welch has received two consecutive Blues Music Award nominations by the Blues Foundation for Instrumentalist-Guitar beginning in 2016.
Chicago's own Mike Ledbetter has had nothing short of a rich and multi-dimensional musical journey thus far. Before making a home in West Side Chicago and Memphis style blues, Ledbetter set his feet in various genres ranging from soul, gospel, pop, jazz, and even spent the better part of a decade performing on Chicago opera stages. Spending eight years under the tutelage of his mentor, Nick Moss, Ledbetter recorded and toured the world with Moss as his lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist. In this short time, he has made more than a lasting impression and developed a legion of fans. He's also worked with and earned the respect of many of his heroes and influences (Anson Funderburgh, Barrelhouse Chuck, Billy Flynn, Curtis Salgado, Jimmy Johnson, Lazy Lester, Ronnie Earl) as a member of the new school of blues/soul musician whose style is cemented in its Golden Era.
On Sunday, June 12, 2016, Welch and Ledbetter took part in a special tribute to the legendary Otis Rush at the 33rd Annual Chicago Blues Festival. The chemistry between these two was so instantaneous and such a natural fit, that it became readily apparent that an album together must soon follow. "Right Place, Right Time" is the result of this inspired collaboration, born out of a mutual love and respect for the classic blues era of the '50s and '60s and artists such as Otis Rush, Magic Sam, Elmore James and B.B. King. Accompanying Welch and Ledbetter is an all-star cast featuring pianist/organist Anthony Geraci, bassist Ronnie James Weber and drummer Marty Richards, along with special guests Laura Chavez on guitar and saxophonists Doug James and Sax Gordon. For Monster Mike Welch and Mike Ledbetter this album is not just about being in the right place at the right time, but knowing what to do with it when you find yourselves there.
"Right Place Right Time marks a scintillating recording debut for a partnership that could be a modern day counterpart of Buddy Guy and Junior Wells…" – Dick Shurman

Delta Groove announces new album from John Primer and Bob Corritore set for April 21st!New Releases


While developments in the burgeoning blockchain technology and cryptocurrency industry typically come at a breakneck pace, last week was marked by particularly significant news. On consecutive days, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced its position on certain initial coin offerings and token offerings as well as sales through blockchain or distributed ledger technology, a global digital currency exchange was hit with a significant fine for its failure to comply with U.S. law, and a local court decision highlighted one of the difficulties the industry must overcome to win the trust of consumers. These events, while disruptive in some respects, provide new opportunities for those willing to take their lessons to heart.


Two tags punched and all the caribou meat back in camp, hanging in breathable bags in the willows, there was a sense of ease and accomplishment. The hunts were relived as the evening stretched on and eventually we all turned in.
Our fifth day on the tundra dawned with fog in the mountains but generally good conditions. Having tagged out we made the decision to call for pick up at the air taxis earliest opportunity. Our plan was to get back to the air taxi's base and camp there, getting an early start on the Haul road return trip and camp on the way back to Fairbanks. We wanted trees and wood and a campfire! None of which is readily available on the tundra. Our taxi service said they'd get us out that day, to bust camp but leave the tents up.
Based on that conversation we thought we'd be getting out of the field, we packed up and waited. We called several other times but the weather where the outfitter was had apparently deteriorated and the last communication we received was to call back at about 9 the next morning.
So we got camp back in order and spent some time loafing and piddling with what wood we could find which was really nothing more than ancient crate lumber from years ago. Dustin was using a Gossman WSK that was a part of a passaround. Beast of a knife.
I re-pitched my Kifaru Megatarp further down the hill and did not put the 1.5 net tent back up. Bugs had been minimal to nothing due to the colder temperatures so I didn't need it. The amount of space in this shelter is truly amazing, coupled with the easy set up and simplicity of two trekking poles it has become a favorite backcountry shelter when you want more than a simple flat tarp set up provides.
Even with the Bear Paw 1.5 Net Tent set up inside the mega tarp there is still gobs of space, both living area as well as storage area. My 1.5 has both the front and rear walls done up in silnylon with 10" of it along the sides up from the bottom. Even when the wind turned and blew directly into the Megatarp I barely felt it while I had the 1.5 zipped up in front. Here's a pic of the set up when the wind had changed and blew directly in.
Image below provides an idea of how much space is available with the 1.5 installed inside the Mega, there's another 20sf of space that you cannot see that is at the rear, enclosed area. I'm going to have another 1.5 built with doors in either end that will allow me easy access to that enclosed space at the rear of the Mega.
Without a doubt it is one of the best if not the best shelter combinations that I've ever used.
With our belief that there would be no pick up we decided to have some caribou cutlets for dinner. I used my ulu and sliced us off four thin pieces of some of the finest looking meat I'd ever seen.
Using some of the old crate lumber we set up a wind break and a cooking station for two pocket rockets, one for the meat and the other for a pot of mash potatoes.
Dustin (From the History Channel's 'Alone' show on the left.
I was amazed at how quickly the meat was cooking in my Alpine Fry-Bake pan. I originally purchased this pan back in late December or early January and have had several chances to use it. From baking bread to cooking meat to frying fish it has performed very well. I've even gone to cooking my Mountain House meals in this pan because I use my own proportions instead of the individual packs. I pour in the amount I need, then the hot water, place the pan with the lid on it over my flat top kettle and cover with a camp bag or other article of clothing. This keeps the heat in and the MH meals cook just fine. In this case the caribou meat cooked evenly and perfectly in the pan with just a small amount of oil.
Coming into the home stretch we doled out the meat and potatoes.
Having spent the time to prepare this incredible looking and smelling meal, we were about to have our first bite when noise drew my attention to the far end of the lake, a flicker of white gliding in, it took me several seconds to understand what I was seeing. My mind a fog of food anticipation, my critical thinking crippled by the smell of the cooked caribou. Then recognition. I said "You've got to be f*&$ing kidding me!" as the float plane glided into the lake. We sat there somewhat dumb struck for a few moments. The door on the float plane open and the voice of our bushpilot could be heard all the way in camp, "Hurry up!" was what got to my ears. Suddenly with all three of us cursing beneath our breath and maybe a few above, we ate quickly as we exploded into motion to break down our gear. We were so enthralled with the meal and looking forward to taking our time it was a shame to have to eat it on the fly, but we did, and it was damn good!
I'm a bit confused by one thing: wasn't one of the tags still u filled? Why leave when one of you hadn't killed their caribou yet?
Our third man was Dustin who did not have a Caribou tag for this trip. He had post trip travel that would have made meat handling impossible so he did not go after caribou.


Home » Interesting Read » Refocused. Retooled. Reinvented.
Wow, this has definitely been awhile. Hello blogging world… again. When you lose focus and let things slide, no progress is made. What am I talking about?
No, not regular exercising but generating enough motivation to continue to challenge yourself.
It's been over a couple of years that I have really put in time and energy into my health and fitness business. And it has suffered and struggled to become successful again.
A year later, I'm finally going to complete this blog post, (which I started back in April of 2015) begin a regular exercise routine and become productive… at least that's what I'm telling myself. This reminds me of a very entertaining TED talk sent to me by a client. If you want another excuse to delay your responsibilities, check out, Master Procrastinator by Tim Urban.
The simple advice of start somewhere, a little bit at a time, really does work. I absolutely know it worked and is working for me. There are days that I will attempt to continue and end up lounging around but I ask myself, "What are two minutes out of my 24 hour day?". Then there is still a little resistance but I eventually ask myself what's wrong with me and realize how silly it is that these 2 minutes are such a hurdle… and I just to do it!
So here it is, a fully completed blog to motivate myself to continue sharing ideas, opinions and information to anyone who may get something out of it.
I have worked hard on updating this StayFitAnywhere website. I have spent time on discovering other areas where I can provide a complete and full wellness approach. My goal is to ensure you, my clients and readers achieve a healthier life. I have been creating videos for my upcoming youtube channel, and have been contributing consistently on my social media channels instagram, twitter and facebook… check them out.
Now, time for a nap.

2020 Computer Science Internships in Richardson, TX
Do you enjoy building new algorithmic processes? Do you like thinking about computational theories and how they can scale to solve big technical problems? If your answer is yes, then you're a perfect candidate for a computer science internship. But what does an internship in computer science involve and what types of companies can you work for? A CS internship can take you down a lot of different paths, often depending on what type of programming languages you currently use and which you want to learn. Whether you are a front end coder, using Java and CSS, a back-end coder who currently works with Ruby, Python, or Scala, or a mobile developer who knows how to build on either the Android or the iPhone platform, there are a lot of ways you can make an impact at companies of various sizes. Chances are, by holding an internship in computer science, you'll be working with several of these languages and learning the intricacies of each from veterans with plenty of experience in the field. The really exciting thing about a computer science internship is the range of different companies to work for. Whether it's a small startup, that needs extra hands to help push new code daily, or a large non-profit that needs a tech savvy student to build new site features, your skills will be in high demand during your computer science internship and there will be no shortage of challenges or learning experiences. One of the other great aspects of being a computer science major is that your skills are in high demand. According to a recent Forbes study computer science majors are one of the top 10 most sought after hires, and often are getting paid some of the most competitive wages in the country for both jobs and internships. Average salaries tend to be in the $15 to $17 per hour range, but a really talented hacker can make up to $30 an hour at leading tech companies in Silicon Valley or Fortune 500s on the east coast or elsewhere. With an internship in computer science, you will also be able to explore one of the many sub-fields such as computer graphics, computational problems, software engineering or quantitative analysis. So whether or not you're a hard-core techie, any of the many CS internships will be the perfect start to developing a diverse skill set in relationship to writing code and advanced programming.
