Super Rugby future to be decided
News/Rugby
The deadline is looming for Super Rugby teams the Western Force and Melbourne Rebels over which will be out of the competition next year.
The parlous financial state of the game both on and off the field has led to the decision to reduce the number of Australian sides from five to four.
Force Chief Executive Mark Sinderberry (pictured) was at pains yesterday to remind the ARU that the decision can't be made for financial reasons alone.

Provided that the suit is one with respect to which the Court is competent as regards the nature and value of the suit to exercise jurisdiction.
(2) Where a statement has not been recorded under sub-section (1), and an objection is taken before an Appellate or Revisional Court that a decree or order in a suit relating to such property was made by a Court not having jurisdiction where the property is situate, the Appellate or Revisional Court shall not allow the objection unless in its opinion there was, at the time of the institution of the suit, no reasonable ground for uncertainty as to the Court having jurisdiction with respect thereto and there has been a consequent failure of justice.

IMPORTANT CASE LAWS
1. Jurisdictional aspects to be considered while instituting a suit
Harshad Chiman Lal Modi v. DLF Universal Ltd., (2005) 7 SCC 791 : Sections 15 to 20 of the Code contain detailed provisions relating to jurisdiction of courts. They regulate forum for institution of suits. They deal with the matters of domestic concern and provide for the multitude of suits which can be brought in different courts. Section 15 requires the suitor to institute a suit in the court of the lowest grade competent to try it. Section 16 enacts that the suits for recovery of immovable property, or for partition of immovable property, or for foreclosure, sale or redemption of mortgage property, or for determination of any other right or interest in immovable property, or for compensation for wrong to immovable property shall be instituted in the court within the local limits of whose jurisdiction the property is situate. The proviso to Section 16 declares that where the relief sought can be obtained through the personal obedience of the defendant, the suit can be instituted either in the court within whose jurisdiction the property is situate or in the court where the defendant actually or voluntarily resides, or carries on business, or personally works for gain. Section 17 supplements Section 16 and is virtually another proviso to that section. It deals with those cases where immovable property is situate within the jurisdiction of different courts. Section 18 applies where local limits of jurisdiction of different courts are uncertain. Section 19 is a special provision and applies to suits for compensation for wrongs to a person or to movable property. Section 20 is a residuary section and covers all those cases not dealt with or covered by Sections 15 to 19.
2. Types and Objection to Jurisdiction
Harshad Chiman Lal Modi v. DLF Universal Ltd., (2005) 7 SCC 791 :The jurisdiction of a court may be classified into several categories. The important categories are (i) territorial or local jurisdiction; (ii) pecuniary jurisdiction; and (iii) jurisdiction over the subject-matter. So far as territorial and pecuniary jurisdictions are concerned, objection to such jurisdiction has to be taken at the earliest possible opportunity and in any case at or before settlement of issues. The law is well settled on the point that if such objection is not taken at the earliest, it cannot be allowed to be taken at a subsequent stage. Jurisdiction as to subject-matter, however, is totally distinct and stands on a different footing. Where a court has no jurisdiction over the subject-matter of the suit by reason of any limitation imposed by statute, charter or commission, it cannot take up the cause or matter. An order passed by a court having no jurisdiction is a nullity.
3. Transfer and Withdrawal of suits
Kulwinder Kaur v. Kandi Friends Education Trust, (2008) 3 SCC 659: Reading Sections 24 and 25 of the Code together and keeping in view various judicial pronouncements, certain broad propositions as to what may constitute a ground for transfer have been laid down by courts. They are balance of convenience or inconvenience to the plaintiff or the defendant or witnesses; convenience or inconvenience of a particular place of trial having regard to the nature of evidence on the points involved in the suit; issues raised by the parties; reasonable apprehension in the mind of the litigant that he might not get justice in the court in which the suit is pending; important questions of law involved or a considerable section of public interested in the litigation; "interest of justice" demanding for transfer of suit, appeal or other proceeding, etc. Above are some of the instances which are germane in considering the question of transfer of a suit, appeal or other proceeding. They are, however, illustrative in nature and by no means be treated as exhaustive. If on the above or other relevant considerations, the court feels that the plaintiff or the defendant is not likely to have a "fair trial" in the court from which he seeks to transfer a case, it is not only the power, but the duty of the court to make such order.

I just got back from a music education conference in Nashville. All our sessions were held in the downtown conference center which, on in the inside, could have been located anywhere in the United States: a brown and beige interior, indirect lighting, no pictures, posters, or even room names to suggest we were just a block from the crackling honky tonk culture of Broadway. Had I attended every concert and meet & greet, and had I been staying in the adjoining hotel, eating my meals in its restaurant, I could've gone all four days without seeing any of the city.
Fortunately, that's not how I was disposed. I was staying off site, and got out of the building for lunch and dinner, as well as to see some live music. That taste of the city made me hungry for more, and I wish I could've spent another day or two experiencing it apart from the rigid conference schedule. The evening I spent in the Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar, in particular, left me wishing I knew of a place in Portland that featured high powered music in an intimate setting as it did. (There may be such a place, but I don't know of it--yet. Please enlighten me.) The liveliness of Broadway was appealing, too, something I've also encountered in the French Quarter of New Orleans. I didn't see any residential neighborhoods on this trip, but I'm sure they're lovely. If it weren't for the conservative Christianity oozing out of every nook and cranny, and the fact that most country music leaves me cold, I could imagine living in Nashville.
That's not unusual. Maybe it's the itinerant life I've led, changing my address dozens of times, having to quickly find something to like about new neighborhoods, districts, towns, cities. I can picture myself living just about anywhere. That's what makes what I'm about to say really significant: Portland is my city.
I think this every time I return from a trip. Is fascinated as I am by the places I visit, and the things they have to offer that I can't find at home, it never takes long to identify their shortcomings. In Nashville, apart from that evangelical edge, it was beer, coffee, and cuisine. The best coffee in town is Starbucks. Southern cooking and barbecue joints deliver just fine, but there were only two Asian restaurants I saw, and just two breweries I was aware of.
Now back to Stumptown, where our coffee culture rivals that of Seattle, a block of food carts can feature more menu diversity (and quality) than an entire Southern city, and we probably have more craft breweries than the entire Southern half of the USA.
I could now reel off a list of cities I've visited or lived in, along with all the ways they don't measure up to Portland, even as they have fine qualities of their own: Washington, Dallas, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, New Orleans, London, Edinburgh, Munich, Vienna, Rome--I've been enamored of, excited by all these places, imagined myself living in a townhouse here, a craftsman there, a flat, a loft, whatever would most suit life in a particular neighborhood or municipality; yet none of these places was My City. That distinction really does fall to Portland.
I could now rattle off a long list of what makes Portland wonderful--bike routes, Forest Park, breweries, food carts, restaurants, coffee shops, Powell's, dog parks, real neighborhoods, all those bridges, a downtown with a night life, mountains, rivers, beaches, desert, and fertile valley (and yes, proximity to all the major forms of natural landscapes counts)--in fact, I just did--but I'm not going to spend anymore time explaining why all these things are wonderful, or why they make Portland so special. Every city has a list like this; they're easy to find online. Lately I've been researching Tucson, where Amy and I will go for our winter vacation, and it's got its own long list of wonderful attributes. Rather than publish yet another annotated list of cool stuff, I'm going to zero in on something entirely different: breathing.
When Portlandia, the sketch show that lampoons Portland's liberal culture, first appeared, it began with a musical tour of the city that included this line: "Portland is where young people go to retire." There are many underemployed creative people in Portland. I know several of them, and I have been one for seven of the last fourteen years. I do see my underemployed friends struggle at times to make ends meet, but they always seem to manage, just as I did; and I rarely see them desperate, nor did I have any times of real panic. I knew that somehow, I would always make it through. I did have to move at times, spent three years living communally, and cobbled together my income from a variety of sources. And it all worked out. I didn't live in opulence, but I had enough, more than enough at times, and I was able to breathe.
In Portland, we know how to breathe. It's not just that our air is cleaner--and at times, thanks to the peculiarities of geography and climate, it's not--it's that we remember to inhale. There are plenty of breathless cities, places where one always has to hurry, whether on the road or the sidewalk, and any delay turns to rage. I commute as much as anyone I know, from Bethany to Gateway, 35-40 minutes when traffic is good, more when it is not. Along the way, I occasionally encounter someone who's in too much of a hurry, but I spend entire weeks without hearing a car horn blast. Walking in Manhattan, on the other hand, I don't think we had a car-horn free minute. There's just no point: we get there when we get there, and getting frustrated over a slow trip through the tunnel isn't going to make it any faster.
This is the spirit at the heart of "where young people go to retire." We're zen about things, accepting what comes our way. If it's a time of industry and income, fine. If not, then we've got more time to write that novel, learn to play the accordion, wade through that stack of books we acquired during our last trip to Powell's. I did plenty of job searching during my times of low employment, but I also wrote, performed, exercised, and even traveled. I kept breathing.
It ultimately comes down to a question of spirituality. Portland consistently makes the list of most unchurched cities in the United States, but that's a misleading distinction. When we say we're "spiritual, but not religious," it's not a cop-out, a more acceptable way of admitting we're too lazy to go to church. We're quite serious about spirituality, but we don't define it by membership in an institution. As a pastor, I didn't understand this, and had to choke back scoffs when widows would tell me their dead husband's church was the great outdoors. Once I was liberated from that profession, I came to know exactly what they were talking about: I found myself far more connected with the ground of my being when I was on a trail. Others find it in yoga, meditation, performing, cooking--anything that helps us experience our humanity in the core of our identities. Apart from outdoor exercise, I feel most deeply connected to my true self when I'm teaching music. My spirituality has come to be much less about what some religious leader says it should be, and much more about who I am.
Being your most honest and real self is the essence of most definitions of salvation or redemption that I've encountered, and in this sense, Portland may just be the most spiritual place in America. People come here to be themselves. The piercings, tattoos, beards, comfortable but distinctive clothing; the embrace of fringe politics; the pursuit of excellence in brew pubs, distilleries, espresso shops, food carts, ice cream parlors, bike shops, book stores, and on and on; all these things speak of individuals on a quest to be their own true, best selves, and to do it in the larger community of our city.
My City. Your City. Our City. That's Portland, my home.

China has a long history of scholarship in art, especially on the art of painting (one of the most popular forms of art in the history of Chinese art). Evidence of this goes all the way back to the fourth century (citations of scholarship on art can be found even earlier than the fourth century). Many of these writings and texts were not well preserved so few of the actual texts are left today. However, throughout history, many of these writings and texts have been quoted by ancient Chinese scholars, historians, and authors.
One of the most famous writings on art is by Xie He which was written during the sixth century. The following are his six "canons" or "laws" on art, translated by James Cahill, a well-known art history professor at the University of California in Berkeley (his focus is on Chinese and Japanese art).

Slightly different translations of Xie He's Six Canons have been proposed by different scholars. Xie He's Six Canons are also difficult to understand because in his original writing, he expressed each of the six canons in only four Chinese characters.
Although his argument is succinct, I agree with Xie He's argument about what a painter ought to do. I think that his argument is well laid out since it does cover a broad range of how the painter ought to paint. To me, the easiest canons to understand are canons three, four, and five. They address the painter's concern about accuracy in paintings, a popular concern among artists throughout the history of art. Xie He, however, separated form and color into two different canons (canons three and four). This is because Chinese painters often painted using an outline and color technique. They would outline in brushed ink the form of the elements in their painting. Then, they would add color to it. To give the viewer an impression of volume, the painter would shade along the edges of the outline.
Xie He's argument is also well laid out because of the order of his canons. The order of his canons indicate the primary, secondary, and tertiary concerns of Chinese painters. Based on his Six Canons, Xie He believes that the artist's primary objective is to capture the vital spirit of the subjects in their paintings as well as to demonstrate their own sensitivity to that spirit. The second concern in the Six Canons is the artist's brush work. The artist much handle the brush with expertise and carefully choose the placement of their ink strokes. The third concern mentioned in the sixth canon is about a standard Chinese practice among painters: copying. Like artists from many other different cultures, Chinese painters would often copy the works of their masters to learn and further develop their painting skills, as well as to form their own ideas on painting. Through his Six Canons, I think Xie he lays out a pretty strong argument on the art of painting.
Thus, I think that Xie He makes a very valid and effective argument using his succinct Six Canons.

Gabby and Mommy are a friendly, funny, often silly mommy-daughter team who love to open and review cool toys like Monster High, My Little Pony, Barbie, Disney, Shopkins, Ever After High, Funko, Littlest Pet Shop, Lalaloopsy, and all different types of blind bag openings.  They also love to share fun, exciting, crazy adventures (things like Build-A-Bear, the State Fair and Christmas light shows to name a few), and Gabby enjoys reading aloud from her favorite books.  Gabby loves to play, dance, and do gymnastics.  She also enjoys fashion, especially dresses and dress-up clothes. She fell in love with watching YouTube videos (toy reviews, toy parodies, makeup tutorials) so her own channel where she could express herself and have fun with Mommy quickly followed.

Twenty years ago, Melanie Stokes was abandoned in a Boston hospital, then adopted by a wealthy young couple. Gifted with loving parents, a doting brother, and an indulgent uncle, Melanie has always considered herself lucky. Until the first cryptic, threatening note arrives: "You Get What You... read more Deserve." Melanie has no memory of her life before the adoption. Now someone wants her to remember it all--even the darkest nightmare the Stokes family ever faced: the murder of their first daughter. As Melanie pursues every lead and chases every shadow in search of her real identity, two seemingly unrelated events from her past will come together in a dangerous explosion of truth.


Orlando Doesn't Have to be All Mickey Mouse!
In the past decade Orlando has strived to vary its appeal from inexpensive, mass tourism to more luxury brands. In fact, I recently upgraded my Forida's Turnpike 3.5 hour drive from Miami with RedCoach, a fleet of sleek 27-passenger Prevost motorcoaches with Wi-Fi, 110-v outlets, fully reclinable leather business class seats (140 degrees), and LCD monitors for films. From their bus terminal near Orlando International Airport (free shuttle) it was an easy car rental drive west to International Drive, Orlando's main tourist drag. There I reached the Peabody Orlando, a 1641-room AAA Four Diamond resort which has just completed a $450 million expansion with twin towers and a 300,000 sq. ft. function space across from the mammoth 2.2 million sq. ft. Orange County Convention Center.
Despite its girth, the Peabody Orlando feels intimate and navigable, aided by a highly courteous staff, from bellhops and reception to the very efficient concierge desk. On the 26th floor of the New Tower the panoramic Peabody Club lounge provides complimentary continental breakfast, light snacks, drinks and evening desserts. Beige and tan-accented Club level rooms surprise with the comfy Peabody Dream Bed, Panasonic 42-inch LCDs, bathroom in-mirror TVs, very handy LED night "stumble" lights, a "feed the fridge" menu for self-stocking, and Wi-Fi internet access. Downstairs, their 22,000 sq. ft. full service spa and fitness center offer Octane equipment, a private grotto area with whirlpool tubs, a signature mango ginger skin infusion, waxing, nail services, and even couples, teen and kids treatments.
With over 100 public art works the Peabody Orlando evokes oversize chic with a striking water mosaic off the New Tower lobby and Guy Dill's 3D aluminum sculptures and emerging LA artist Chris Classen's bright acrylic panels in the Convention Center. Rocks, their South Beach-style, 6,000 sq. ft. nearly all-glass hotel bar, entertains with Venetian plaster columns and "spaghetti" lighting with great views of the immense heated zero-entry pool and private cabanas. Below Rocks, I ate dinner at Napa with its distinct healthy California menu using locally owned Florida farms and suppliers providing sweet corn from Zellwood and fresh calamari from Cape Canaveral. Small plates displayed zesty clean lines with butternut squash soup and truffle crème fraiche or caramelized diver scallops with vanilla scented cauliflower purée; Montana's Meyer Ranch natural Angus beef filet in a Zinfandel reduction with boniato mash exuded lean, prairie-fed flavor. In the Mallard Tower skylight fountain lobby (named for their popular twice daily red carpet "duck" walk and feeding), enjoy Italian chophouse Capriccio Grill for prime and American Wagyu steaks or succumb to comfort food like old-fashioned corn beef hash at B-Line Express, their 24-hour diner.
Next door on International Drive nightlife buzzes at Pointe Orlando. After a few snarky sessions at the Improv Comedy Club & Dinner Theater or guitar licks at B.B. King's Blues Club, try mojitos, dark El Dorado rum or cachaça with albondigas (meat balls) at salsa-dancing Cuba Libre or sushi with red blends and world varietals at Funky Monkey Wine Company. During the day the I-Ride Trolley will drop you off on the strip at SeaWorld, Skyventure Orlando (simulated skydiving), the upside-down Wonderworks building (interactive exhibits), Ripley's Believe It Or Not, or the vast Prime Outlets Orlando (north and south branches). Just a short drive north lies Winter Park, home of Rollins College, a charming town of boutiques on Park Avenue and The Morse Museum, home to some of America's finest examples of Tiffany glass and lamps in its brand-new wing.
The latest entry in the luxury resort market is the AAA Four Diamond Waldorf Astoria Orlando (2009), located next to the Disney theme parks just south off I-4 and Epcot Center Drive. Adjoining the 1,001-room Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek in a 482-acre nature preserve, the 498-room Waldorf boasts a 7,108-yard Rees Jones golf course and Spa by Guerlain with 21 treatment rooms. The resemblance to its New York namesake is unmistakable: an imposing 14-foot lobby clock, Peacock Alley (bar), Sir Harry's Lounge, and the Bull & Bear Steakhouse. My 14th floor suite was elegantly furnished with gold and beige trimmings, powder blue ottoman, an LG 42-inch black LCD, wet bar and fridge with wine rack, in-room espresso maker, LED reading lights, and a DVD Blue-ray player with digital soundbar. The clubby Bull & Bear Steakhouse sticks well to classics: an excellent tableside Caesar salad, Certified Angus Beef brand Prime and Natural cuts (first in Florida), and a superb chocolate soufflé. Downstairs, next to the lovely zero-entry pool and private cabanas, Oscar's serves a fine buffet breakfast with Eggs Benedict (Waldorf hallmark dish) and ricotta-filled French toast. Afterwards, for runners, there's even a one-mile jogging loop around the property.


SOLONEWS / ARTE&CULTURA / Is Meghan Markle writing her own Instagram captions?
Taking to Instagram, the couple shared a lengthy post thanking everyone who has generously donated funds to some of their favoured charities and organisations in lieu of sending gifts for baby Sussex. But if you take a closer look at the caption, you'll notice that the occasional American spelling crops up, such as "re-energized" instead of "re-energised".
If you also suffer a minor heart attack in anticipation of Baby Sussex news every time you see Meghan Markle's name trending, this might help put you at ease.
In a post praising the public for choosing "to be part of the collective good", they relayed the success of a week-long charity drive and told 4.6 million followers: "You made this happen". And on behalf of The Duke and Duchess (and Baby Sussex), we thank you so much.
According to the post, the influx of donations will allow The Lunchbox Fund to provide at least 100,000 additional hot and healthy meals to South African children, while WellChild can now provide over 300 extra hours of specialist nurse care for a child with serious health needs, allowing families to stay together at home as opposed to in a hospital. One way they might do so is by sharing news about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's work, such as this posting. Leaving in the middle of the night or early morning means fewer eyes on her and Prince Harry.

Any tricks to determine Regional Pos of an Attached prim?
I'm really stuck on this one. I can add the attachment's local offset to the 'center' it reports, but it's still off by significant bit, and I just don't know where to start with variables. - accounting for avatar height and the avatar's rotation seem like the only way to make these transformations? Has anyone ever taken a swing at this?

An Extra Dose of Healthy The New Active wear Market
Consumers are currently sporting activewear than ever, both because it trending as a style statement than they used to, and they are becoming more exercise. And while exercising is a option that is healthful, there are those people who assert that what people decide to wear while exercising can really make a difference in the health of one.
"People will need to be made aware of exactly how widely it's used, but more importantly they have to be made aware that the existence of nanosilver was demonstrated to trigger antimicrobial immunity"
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control reported earlier this season that for the first time because its polls started 20 decades back, over half of Americans (52%) said they obtained the recommended amount of physical action. Along with the International Wellness Institute reported that the health market, which counts fitness and yoga in its industries, reached $3.7 trillion in 2015.
By itself, the U.S. activewear company is anticipated to create $83 billion in annual sales by 2020, according to Morgan Stanley. Consumer demand has retained places in activewear from viewing any harm, based on Katie Smith, senior analyst a data warehouse, for Edited. In a current Edited panel discussion at New York, she pointed out that in price, they climbed despite the ubiquity of a product such as leggings. Activewear is a category that is powerful. though high-end designers are still currently entering the busy, merchandise sold in market still dominates the class. In reality 82% of activewear is priced compared to 53 percent of apparel.
Though the business has worked to include matches styles, and colors to maintain customers captivated by the class speed much debate is the fiber option. Particularly in regard to health.
And the vast majority of customers (53%) say when compared with manmade fibers, cotton would be the very best for activewear, eight in 10 say cotton is the comfiest, although 79 percent say it is the most trusted. When customers consider cotton's features, 78 percent consider cotton keeps the wearer cool, 77% just like its performance characteristics, and 67 percent just like that it is watertight. Of cotton, about two in 10 activewear products are made in operation activewear
Some customers are concerned with fabrics. Researchers in the University of Ghent in Belgium found that bacteria thrive leading to apparel that keeps sweat smells after being laundered. These microbes do not reside on cotton substance. Even though manufacturers of activewear have additional remedies, such as nanoparticles, to help kill germs, a Duke University study found that may be awful for microorganisms and crops.
Further, such coatings are that: coatings. Researchers are worried about the nanosilver being consumed via the wearer's sweat glands or coming in the laundry. The European Commission's Scientific Committees discovered nanosilver can render a permanent discoloration and researched nanosilver's impact.
Before this year, researchers in the University of Technology Sydney explained, "alarm bells should be ringing" in the widespread business usage of nanosilver because individuals will create a resistance to it which may spread through germs within the human body and surroundings.
"People will need to be made aware of exactly how widely it's used, but more importantly they have to be made aware that the existence of nanosilver was demonstrated to trigger antimicrobial resistance," said Dr. Cindy Gunawan, nanobiologist in the ithree Institute in UTS.
Past nanosilver's health dangers, the United Nations and scientists are warning the general public about microplastics in length, which are currently showing up in the planet's waterways. They have the capacity to poison the source of drinking water — and the food chain — because these rings of plastic have shown up in the guts of life. Apparel that is Artificial plays its role since it goes on to wastewater treatment plants, breaks down in the laundry room cycle, enter lakes, rivers, and oceans, according to investigators at the University of California in Santa Barbara.
Groups are worried that synthetics such as nylon, rayon, and polyester do not breathe just like fibers. Synthetics go through compound processing to flip them.
A moisture management software that enables fabrics to disperse and wick sweat than synthetic materials, TransDRY ® technologies was patented by Cotton Integrated to meet consumers who need performance technologies in their cloth activewear. Furthermore, the WICKING WINDOWS ™ technologies of Cotton Incorporated is a moisture control tool that gets rid of saturated cloth against the body's sensation. The technology compels the flow of moisture to the exterior of the fabric and more comfortable during workout.

How to think about the death of the outspoken atheist.
Christopher Hitchens was a celebrity intellectual, and, as such, the basic outlines of his life are generally well known. But for those just joining us, Christopher Hitchens was the older of two sons, born to Eric and Yvonne in April 1949. He discovered as a schoolboy that probing questions about the veracity of the Christian faith were part of a discussion that he "liked having." His younger brother, Peter, followed him in unbelief. But unlike Christopher, Peter publicly returned to the Church of England, the communion where they had both been baptized.
Christopher spent some time in the 1960s as a radical leftist, but of course that was what everybody was doing back then. Somehow Christopher managed to do this and march to a different drummer, doing his radical stint as part of a post–Trotskyite Luxemburgist sect. He graduated from Balliol at Oxford, and soon became established as a writer, the vocation of his life, one in which he excelled. As a writer and thinker, he was greatly influenced by (and wrote about) men like George Orwell and Thomas Jefferson, while as the same time reserving the right to attack any sacred cow of his choosing—and the more sacred, the better. He is widely known for his scathing attack on Mother Teresa, and when Jerry Falwell passed away, he spent a good deal of time on television chortling about it.


Novaproducts Global has developed an innovative range of design orientated, modular-truss space frame systems known as Nova-Span Space Frame.
The systems are simple and elegant, and they offer a flexible, lightweight building alternative.
The space frame systems are highly versatile, and can be suspended, cantilevered or mounted on columns.
Nova-Span Space Frames can support a range of roof types, metal decking and sky lighting formats.
Ideal for more difficult building functions, these space frame systems can be used for multi complex levels along with curved or vaulted designs.
The space frame systems offer both structural strength and a pleasing aesthetic design.
The space frame systems are built up from a multiplicity of common size members, and they can be produced in an efficient manner.
The space frame systems are comprised of relatively small sized components, which allows for economies to be achieved in handling transport and erection.
The Nova-Span Space Frame is subsequently well suited to isolated sites or in situ erection.
The space frame systems are ideal for those applications that require large span structures, such as industrial buildings, exhibitions halls, sports stadiums and swimming centres.
This is because large span structures can be designed with minimal interference from internal supports when using the space frames.
Nova-Span Space Frames are modular systems with a range of module sizes. They can be varied to suit any design aesthetic or structural requirement.
The space frame systems are available in a range of different types, including Geodesic Dome structures.

A Amaurose Congênita de Leber (ACL) também conhecida como síndrome de Leber , é uma doença degenerativa hereditária rara que leva a disfunção da retina numa idade precoce. Ela provoca alterações graduais na atividade elétrica retina gerando perda grave da visão desde o nascimento e outros problemas oculares, como sensibilidade à luz ou ceratocone.  A ACL foi descrita pela primeira vez por Theodor Leber no século XIX e afeta cerca de 1 em 40.000 recém-nascidos.. Não deve ser confundida com a neuropatia óptica hereditária de Leber, que é uma doença diferente também descrita por Leber.

Tratamento
Uma forma de ACL foi tratada com sucesso com terapia genética em 2008. Outra terapia genética para LCA é Luxturna (voretigene neparvovec-rzyl), onde o agente introduz uma cópia correta do gene afetado. Luxturna é aprovado para o tratamento específico da forma causada pela mutação do gene 65 do epitélio pigmentar da retina (RPE65).

Epidemiologia
A Amaurose Congênita de Leber representa um total de 5% de todas as retinopatias, afetando, aproximadamente, 4,5 milhões de pessoas em todo o mundo. Além disso, estudos apontam que 10 a 20% das crianças que frequentam escolas para cegos possuem essa doença.

Soldiers' newest GI Bill exceeds tuition assistance, also benefits dependents
Printer Friendly Page Apr 16, 2009 (Updated Jul 24, 2013)
By Rob McIlvaine (FMWRC Public Affairs)
Though the road was long and hard, the efforts and advocacy of the Army Family Action Plan (AFAP) have resulted in a major victory for Soldiers and families.
The creation of the Post 9/11 GI Bill was driven by AFAP Issues #497, #385 and #525. It becomes a reality August 1, 2009, and will offer all Soldiers with six years of service the opportunity to transfer unused Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits to their dependents.
With this new bill, what started as an enlistment incentive has grown to become a retention tool in our all volunteer Army. The ability to provide for the family by transferring benefits to spouses and children becomes a powerful retention incentive. Benefits must be transferred before separating from the military.
Veterans are not eligible to transfer unused benefits.
Veterans who served after Sept. 11, 2001, could receive full tuition and fees, a new monthly living stipend, and a $1,000-a-year books and supplies stipend. The Bill also gives Reserve and Guard members who have been activated for more than 90 days since 9/11 access to the Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits, paid on a pro-rated basis, depending on length of qualifying active duty service.
A few select Soldiers were offered the opportunity to transfer Montgomery GI Bill (MGIB) benefits as part of a Pilot program which the AFAP committee was instrumental in developing. Participation in the Pilot program was limited to Soldiers with critical skills and required those who participated to accept a reduced reenlistment bonus.
The AFAP General Officer Steering Committee (GOSC) aggressively advocated elimination of rules which prevented all Soldiers from participating in this valuable program.
The legislation creating the Post 9/11 GI Bill, supported by the AFAP GOSC, rectified this limitation by offering all Soldiers, with six years of service the opportunity to transfer unused Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits.
This Bill (Chapter 33) boasts the most comprehensive education benefits package since the original GI Bill was signed into law in 1944.
Officially known as the "Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008" by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Department of Defense (DOD), was signed by President Bush on June 30, 2008. It will be published as Army policy by the end of April 2009, and will become effective August 1, 2009.
Generally, to be eligible to transfer benefits, Soldiers must have at least six years in the Army, active and/or Selected Reserve service, and agree to serve four more years on active duty or in the Selected Reserves.
The Department of the Armyis reviewing transferability policy options for Soldiers who have 20 or more years of service on August 1, 2009, and for those with ten or more years of service who are unable to commit to four additional years of service.
If a servicemember is already enrolled in the Montgomery GI Bill and meets the criteria for the Post 9/11 GI Bill, he or she has the option to convert the remaining MGIB benefits to the new program.
AFAP was created in 1980 through focus groups but was fully developed with the first official AFAP Conference held in July 1983. The mission of AFAP is to help Army leaders address the needs and concerns of the total Army family. The program enlists representatives from around the world to identify and prioritize issues that will improve the standard of living in the Army.
This feedback to leaders results in policy changes that become tangible end-products at garrisons across the Army. AFAP beneficiaries include Soldiers (all components), retirees, Department of Army civilian employees and all their family members.
"We recognize what it takes to be an Army family, and that our Soldiers draw great strength from their families," said Chief of Staff Gen. George W. Casey, Jr. at the 2008 AFAP Conference.
"The welfare of Army Families is increasingly important to all of us," he said, adding that the Army was committed to building a partnership with Families embodied in the Army Family Covenant.
Six hundred and fifty-one issues have been identified through AFAP in the past 25 years. AFAP has driven 110 legislative changes, 155 Army policy and regulatory changes and 177 improved programs and services. It is also notable that 61 percent of all active AFAP issues impact all the services.

Many people who have tried different diets and methods of weight loss , trying to quickly lose weight and keep it in the norm for a long time, know perfectly well that activated charcoal is not only an excellent tool for cleansing the skin of the face , but also a wonderful assistant in the build a slim figure. So can you really lose weight with activated charcoal, reduce cellulite and not gain excess weight for a long time? Let's discuss this topic in detail, exciting many full people.
Activated carbon is produced from carbonaceous materials of organic origin. In this case, all the closed pores of the material are opened. That's why the tablet is porous, it is widely known as a sorbent, capable of combining the harmful substances accumulated in the body (slag and toxins) that enter the gastrointestinal tract and help them to get out. It's not a secret that active-activated tablets are very effective in poisoning, which cleans the body of toxins.
Each method of weight loss has its drawbacks and side effects. In the case of activated charcoal, there is only one, but a significant problem: in addition to harmful elements for the body, the drug removes minerals and vitamins that help each living cell function properly. Therefore, before you start losing weight in this way, weigh everything thoroughly and do not exceed the calculated dosages. So, is it possible to lose weight, remove the tummy and get rid of cellulite with the help of this tool? YES! But it is impossible to solve the problem of excess weight alone with pills.
This drug is much more effective to use together with a suitable diet for a specific case. As for calculating the dose, you cannot do this yourself, consult a nutritionist who, after the examination, will tell you when and in what proportions to take the coal, so as not to harm the body. The drug has contraindications: in the presence of gastrointestinal ulcers and gastric bleeding from it should be discarded.
Lite: Taking into account three meals a day, you need to swallow 3 tablets before breakfast, lunch and supper.
And drink for 10 days, then stop using coal for the same period. If necessary, repeat a few weeks later.
Tougher: In the morning, take pills at 1 per 10 kilograms. With a body weight of 90 kilograms, you need to swallow 9 tablets at a time. To ease the process, start with 4 pieces and gradually, each day to increase their number, carefully monitoring their own well-being. It is recommended to drink coal before breakfast.
To lose weight with activated charcoal, you need to balance your diet. Without this, not a single diet. If you strictly adhere to the regimen of taking medications for weight loss, but the daily consumption of fatty foods, as well as foods rich in carbohydrates, will not diminish (and maybe even increase), then you will not be able to lose excess pounds.


Today I want us to take a look at the life and celebrate the life of a very special queer hero from the barrio.
Nancy was born in the southern New Mexico town of Deming, and when she was 9 years old her father brought her to Lincoln Heights, East Los Angeles.
When asked about her childhood and school age years, she would talk about the awkwardness of having all the girls chattering about the cute boys and asking for her fawning input, but that she just ended up feeling alienated and like an outsider. And of the reactions she got from people for being different.
Though her formal education was really short. She didn't really have much schooling except for grammar school. As she had gone to work in the fields with her family by the time she was 11 years old, seasonally picking Apricots in Santa Paula and cotton in Tulare County up near Bakersfield.
And by 13 years old, she was already working in a local neighborhood restaurant in Lincoln Heights, helping the matron of the kitchen. When the restaurant was sold by the man who owned the building, it was sold to Mexican Americans who started a bakery there. Nancy would continue on working for them for the next few years, delivering pastries all over Los Angeles. Though keep in mind, this was years before she had a driver's license. Driving her baked loaves and pan dulce up to the once thriving Mexican enclave of Chavez Ravine, where Dodger Stadium sits today. Where later in life she would also witness a woman being dragged from her home, as it was demolished and she was left homeless.
A lot of the experience of discrimination begin as a Mexican American, feeling like a second-class citizen. Which quite naturally resulted in producing in her a certain sense of rebellion. Though nothing seemed to be more of a rebel statement at the time than her gender non-conformity, wearing pants and short hair. She began to realize she was different at the age of 15, all the while thinking of herself as growing into being comfortable in her own skin.
In 1948, Nancy Valverde was just 17 years old when she was arrested by the Los Angeles Police Department. She was charged with the crime of masquerading, an old law on the books which prohibited men and women from wearing gender-nonconforming clothing. The authorities pointed to her short hair and the zipper fly of her pants as evidence, which got her sentence to three months in jail. A criminal charge that got her kicked out of her mother's house.
And that was just the beginning of her persecution by the Los Angeles Police Department over several years. She often ended up in the lock-up for lesbian women known as the Daddy Tank at Lincoln Heights Jail.
Lincoln Heights jail had mostly become notorious for its "Drunk Tank" when it opened in 1930. And then through the next couple decades still, drunks would be locked up for 30 to 90 days, then released – often to inevitable destitution on skid row – and then picked-up against and it starting all over again.
In the same manner they had a gay men's section of the jail called the "Fruit Tank," as well. People would be held for some time, released and then before long picked-up again by harassing police.
Nancy would be dragged in to jail repeatedly. And be placed in the lesbian lock-up.
Sometimes she was even held in the jail without being officially booked, so at times her friends could not find her for days and sometimes weeks.
All the while Nancy contended that the clothes she wore was a matter of comfort, while working to financially support herself. The jail would seem to have a revolving door for Nancy, a cycle she tried hard to break out of.
In 1951 she visited the Los Angeles County Law Library in hopes of finding some legal defense. In her research she was able to find rulings from 1950 that stated that women wearing men's clothing was not actually a crime in Los Angeles. She informed her lawyer and was able to use this in her defense. And so eventually the police stopped arresting her.
Even though the LAPD stopped incarcerating her, the harassment didn't stop. The beat policemen were known to have made a habit of knocking loudly with their nightstick on the window of her Brooklyn Ave barber shop, to intimidate her and scare away customers.
Though Nancy worked many jobs to make ends meet, her main occupation was as a barber. Though it is important to note that like many of the situations in her life, getting her barbers license was also came with challenges. She found herself being unable to be admitted to barber school because her lack of education. Though eventually she was able to overcome this when a man came up to her and informed her that she could proceed to getting her barbers license if she could pass a basic IQ test. Which she did, and was issued her barbering license. However, like much of her life, she was treated unequally by the other barbers who were all male. And was paid less than the other barbers, because she was a woman.
On top of all this, she also the target of harassment from inside the community, from the cholos and gang members who also went after her for being a lesbian. Even though she was well liked and accepted in the local bars by those who got to know her, long before there were any gays bars around here she would frequent the local watering holes, and be acknowledged just as "Nancy from Eastside Clover," simply as their friend from the barrio.
She also worked in the eastside as a bartender, as well as doing odd jobs and home repair work around town. Not to just support herself, but also a family.
One day, she ran into a woman named Mary Sanchez, whom she had met before at a bar with mutual friends. By chance, Sanchez was moving her belongings out of her apartment, and Valverde offered to assist her.
Valverde stayed in bed while Sanchez, who was pregnant at the time, cared for her. She told Valverde about the troubles she had been having with her boyfriend. By the time Valverde's health improved, Sanchez had ended the relationship, prompting Valverde to offer to help support her and her unborn child.
Already two weeks behind on the rent (a total that, at the time, amounted to $14), Sanchez managed to convince her landlord to let her become the building's manager. They were able to stay together in the apartment.
Valverde and Sanchez became a couple and sustained their relationship for 25 years. However, they broke up after Sanchez's child grew to become an adult suffering from drug addiction, causing a rift between the pair.
Throughout her lifetime, Valverde helped raise four children of women she loved. She raised one child, Salvatore, for six years, before his birth mother, who initially rejected the baby, returned to take him away.
"They said lesbians could not raise kids," Valverde says.
But 10 years ago, Salvatore tracked down Valverde, and the two reunited. Valverde keeps a picture of him and his wife in her apartment, along with a photograph that the pair took together when he found her as an adult.
After a long career as a barber and laborer, she retired to assisted living. And is now a resident of the 104-unit Triangle Square senior housing facility in Hollywood, created by the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center.
Which is really something special. After a long life of struggling for her sense of place up against so many societal prejudices which stood against her. Since her childhood she had to work hard to get by, she had to contend with the rejection of family, and then even had to contend with the gangs that also terrorized her for being a lesbian. Now she has a safe place in this world.
After she moved to Triangle Square she was found by lesbian historians, journals and playwrights. And based on their documentation of her life story in recent years she has become regarded as a Mexican American butch icon by those who admire her.
She inspired Raquel Gutiérrez of the Butchlalis de Panochtitlan, who wrote The Barber of East L.A. based on her life.
The life of Nancy Valverde is also documented and featured in the documentaries On These Shoulders We Stand and Nancy from East Side Clover; and in the books Gay L.A.: A History of Sexual Outlaws, Power Politics, and Lipstick Lesbians, Relocations: Queer Suburban Imaginaries, and Lavender Los Angeles.
Nancy Valverde has a tremendous life story. Her life experience is one that is both reflective of a terrible history of homophobia and gender politics in the 20th century. And the experience that she suffered through was something that was not uncommon in other big cities, but it was more complicated here due to the conditions and culture of Los Angeles at the time.
Now let us keep in mind that Nancy is not transgender, she is a butch lesbian. She was not trying to pass as a man, meaning she was not trying to "masqerade." She even had people testify in her defense that they knew she was a woman and that she was certainly not trying to fool anyone either. That is just who she was and who they knew her to be.
Most white, queer and transgender scholars state that her attire would hardly be noticed today. And note that even at that time it might have likely gone unnoticed in many other big cities. However, it must be stated that Los Angeles was especially intolerant in respect to gender non-conformity and any attire that broke with white cultural norms; all this coming to a head during this height of World War II.
Now keep in mind that is all going on during the middle of World War II, as women are going to work in local industrial jobs as the men went off to war, as they work their asses off in the factories to help support the war effort. Nonetheless he looked at these women in their practical work attire as a desecration of gender and womanliness.
While Bowron was alarmed that he could not prevent this of women in defense factories, he contended with his council members that this needed to be stood against and banned in City Hall. In that year of 1942, the city council was urged by him to pass a regulation that prevented women employees from wearing pants at City Hall.
In 1950 legal precedent began to offer some level of defense, that wasn't present before the war. However, in the post-war years and going into the 1950s, still this era came with increasing examples of harsh treatment as women refused to return to the traditional gender roles they had emerged from.
And certainly, as a Mexican American Nancy Valverde also suffered even more persecution. In an era in which there was increased targeting of Latinos, who had also stretched their legs in society during these years and then ultimately refused to be pushed back into their subjugated roles again as well. And who were likewise often seen as challenging all that with their attire as well.
We will discuss this more in the future as we further explore the history of the repeated criminalization of minorities and non-conformists at the Lincoln Heights Jail, in upcoming blog entries. Stay tuned!
