I am looking for a DC barrel to power a battery pack. The battery in question is connected in 10S3P, that's is a nominal voltage of 36V. I am currently looking for a DC barrel that can withstand at least 42V and currents up to 2A.
I have seen some companies that charge the battery pack using a RCA plugs, however would like to avoid using them because they are not design for that. I have check DC plugs but I can hardly find that can withstand 42V or higher. However, most of them are design for 24 volts.
I was wondering if I could use them as long as I maintain the power output within the safety threshold. Let's say that the dc plug has is designed to safely withstand 24V and 5 A. Could I used with 42 volts and 3 amperes. If not, what would be your advice?
Digikey has numerous jacks rated for 48V, 5A.
Go to www.digikey.com and search for"barrel jack", select "Barrel - power connectors" and then use the filters to narrow down the search: Active, In stock, male/female, voltage, amps, mounting style, etc.
If it doesn't need to be a "barrel" type jack, Anderson PowerPole (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson_Powerpole) connectors would probably work quite well, as they're likely available locally, and provide the necessary isolation.
Not the answer you're looking for? Browse other questions tagged dc battery-charging plug or ask your own question.
Can I charge a 42V SLA battery pack using a 48V SLA charger?
Is there way to construct an 18650 battery pack with built-in balance charging? Or is balancing not very necessary?

Cambodia Today
Cambodia has serious skills
shortages and gaps.
Khmer people are paid as "unskilled labour" and many construction companies "import" labour from neighboring countries
Despite being a vibrant and emerging economy with 15 million people, growing at 8% a year, with 65% of the population under the age of 30, and 300,000 joining the workforce each year; Cambodia still has a shockingly high poverty rate. 70% of the population live under $3 per day, whilst 90% still live in rural areas, and 79 % without access to piped water supply and power. Cambodians are forced to leave their villages to look for better paid work outside the country. Economic growth has been quite strong but there is a large inequality in working and living standards, especially in rural areas.In 2007 in Phnom-Penh, nearly 4000 families were evicted from their homes & land because of greedy property developers. These are some big issues that Cambodia and its people as a country must address…
None or very limited skills training exists to provide domestic skilled-labor
Not enough qualified building trade-skilled professionals
Low wages for unskilled workers (typical average daily wage is $5 for 10 hours' work) and no employment security
Workers live on-site with family with total lack of sanitation and safety for wives and children
Thousands of families are evicted from their land to the benefit of greedy developers
Un-recognized skills of Cambodian labor vs Foreigner "imported" labor from neighbouring countries
Despite the economic growth of property development, low-income people cannot afford a home around cities or close to their work place
Chhorn Chunta's Story – Construction worker, 33 years of age
A wife and mother of three children, Chhorn works alongside her husband on a construction site "building houses for the rich". She is considered 'unskilled labour' and is tasked with cutting steel bars and carrying them around the construction site. She has no access to sick leave, paid holiday leave, maternity leave or insurance. If she is injured onsite, the company is not likely to pay her medical bills. Although she has worked on the site for two years, she earns $6.25 per day – the same rate as other female colleagues while her husband is paid $8 per day for similar work. "That's because I have no skills," she explains, wiping sweat off her sunburned face. "I am only carrying steel bars. My husband is the one putting them on the ceiling." Starting each day at 4:30am, Chhorn works from 7:30am to 5:00pm on the construction site and prepares all three meals every day for her family.

MILITARY TO LEAVE EATONVILLE CARE IN ETOBICOKE AFTER DEADLY COVID-19 OUTBREAK DECLARED OVER
By Jane Brown
After helping out for a month and a half, members of the Canadian Armed Forces will be leaving Eatonville Care Centre in Etobicoke where 43 residents died during a COVID-19 outbreak which is now over.
In a statement, the executive director of Eatonville says 138 residents and 106 staff have fully recovered from COVID-19.
The military was deployed to five long term care homes in Ontario, including Eatonville, at the end of April as all grappled with severe COVID-19 outbreaks.
Observations by military members were outlined in a damning report made public May 26th, in which they claimed there were significant staffing shortages and a lack of personal protective equipment. They also detailed disturbing neglect and abuse of residents.


ABS granted Approval in Principle (AIP) to Hyundai Heavy Industries' (HHI) Standardized design for a Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) facility, ABS said in its press release.
Initially intended for operations in West Africa, HHI advises its standardized topside design is adaptive to a range of conditions, potentially offering reduced costs and shorter project timelines.
"ABS is the world leader in Offshore and in FPSO classification. We have worked closely with HHI, using our experience in the sector to support the development of this innovative concept, which has the potential to streamline the project development life cycle," said Luiz Feijo, ABS Director, Global Offshore.
ABS has been helping to enable safe offshore energy production since the earliest days of operations. In 1975, ABS provided classification services for the offshore industry's inaugural FPSO and classed the first floating production, storage and offloading unit in 1978. Today, ABS is still the world leader in mobile offshore production unit classification.


Welcome to the White Horse Golf Club!
Local architect John Harbottle was brought in to make the golf course more enjoyable for all golfers. He removed almost half of the bunkers and created more accessible approach shots for golfers into the greens. His formula worked as White Horse is now one of the most popular golf courses to play on the Kitsap Peninsula.
Our full service golf club includes an all grass practice facility with three putting greens, chipping area, and 18 incredible holes of golf along with convenient parking. Our clubhouse has the look and feel of a Northwest lodge with an atmosphere welcoming golfers and the general public to come have a casual meal and enjoy the spectacular view from the outdoor terrace overlooking the 18th hole. Following the golf you can enjoy a scenic drive to the Clearwater Resort and Casino for evening activities.
Our free golfers shuttle is available from the Kingston Ferry Dock making the golf course easily accessible for Seattle Golfers.

Pragmatics The concern here is with the use of language in specific situations..
Beginner. 75.2K Views. C is called middle-level language because it actually binds the gap between a machine level language and high-level languages. A user can use c language to do System Programming (for writing operating system) as well as Application Programming (for generating menu driven customer billing system ) …
A low-level language is a programming language that provides little or no abstraction of programming concepts and is very close to writing actual machine instructions. Two examples of low-level languages are assembly and machine code.
C++ is not a high level language, it is a 'systems language' just like C. They are both middle level languages, despite C++ having vastly more complex syntax than C. Low level language is assembler, there is a near 1 to 1 correspondence of code to processor behaviour.
The 3 Levels of Programming Language. Programming Languages: Machine Language. Assembly Language.
Now to actually answer the question: C IS "lower level" because you have to implement everything yourself. Yes you can do the same things in both languages, but C++ includes more tools and abstracts details so you can do more in less lines of code, thus it is "higher level".
C language is belonging to middle level language. C language behaves as a bridge between machine level (low level) languages and high level languages. C language is more user friendly than machine level languages.
Low level languages were developed first, and high level languages came along later. … Today, there are dozens of high-level languages; some examples include BASIC, FORTRAN, Java, C++ and Pascal.
The main difference between high level language and low level language is that, Programmers can easily understand or interpret or compile the high level language in comparison of machine. … High level language is less memory efficient. Low level language is high memory efficient.
The syntax of a C program is harder than Python. Syntax of Python programs is easy to learn, write and read. In C, the Programmer has to do memory management on their own. Python uses an automatic garbage collector for memory management.
While coding means writing codes from one language to another, programming means to program a machine with a given set of instructions to run.
Machine language is the language understood by a computer. It is very difficult to understand, but it is the only thing that the computer can work with. All programs and programming languages eventually generate or run programs in machine language.
Machine language, or machine code, is a low-level language comprised of binary digits (ones and zeros). … Since computers are digital devices, they only recognize binary data. Every program, video, image, and character of text is represented in binary. This binary data, or machine code, is processed as input by the CPU.
The different types of programming languages are discussed below.Procedural Programming Language. … Functional Programming Language. … Object-oriented Programming Language. … Scripting Programming Language. … Logic Programming Language. … C++ Language. … C Language. … Pascal Language.More items…•
Two types of low-level language are:machine code.assembly language.
A high-level language (HLL) is a programming language such as C, FORTRAN, or Pascal that enables a programmer to write programs that are more or less independent of a particular type of computer. Such languages are considered high-level because they are closer to human languages and further from machine languages.
Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics.
The Python Programming Language. Python is an example of a high-level language; other high-level languages you might have heard of are C++, PHP, and Java. … As you might infer from the name high-level language, there are also low-level languages, sometimes referred to as machine languages or assembly languages.
C (/siː/, as in the letter c) is a general-purpose, procedural computer programming language supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope, and recursion, with a static type system. By design, C provides constructs that map efficiently to typical machine instructions.
Parser and Translator: The SQL query is in high-level language and we need to convert this high-level language in low-level language. So, a translator translates the SQL queries into some relational algebraic expressions. … But your query should be such that it should be the most efficient query.
Binary (or base-2) a numeric system that only uses two digits — 0 and 1. Computers operate in binary, meaning they store data and perform calculations using only zeros and ones. A single binary digit can only represent True (1) or False (0) in boolean logic. … One bit contains a single binary value — either a 0 or a 1.
Many types of high-level language exist and are in common use today, including:Python.Java.C++C#Visual Basic.JavaScript.
Examples of low level programming languages C and C++ are now considered low-level languages because they have no automatic memory management.
The programming language mainly refers to high-level languages such as C, C++, Pascal, Ada, COBOL, etc….The following are the differences between low-level language and high-level language:Low-level languageHigh-level languageThe low-level language takes more time to execute.It executes at a faster pace.5 more rows
Disadvantages of low level languagesPrograms developed using low level languages are machine dependent and are not portable.It is difficult to develop, debug and maintain.Low level programs are more error prone.Low level programming usually results in poor programming productivity.More items…•
There are three main components of Small Basic – the language, the IDE, and the libraries. Language: The Small Basic language was inspired by an early variant of BASIC (Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code).
1. HTML (13.3%) HTML was designated both the easiest programming language to learn, and the one that programmers are the most comfortable with, WP Engine found. Created in 1990, this markup language is one of the primary tools for creating standard web pages and applications across any browser.
Java. Python programs are generally expected to run slower than Java programs, but they also take much less time to develop. Python programs are typically 3-5 times shorter than equivalent Java programs. … Because of the run-time typing, Python's run time must work harder than Java's.
Because C comes after B The reason why the language was named "C" by its creator was that it came after B language. Back then, Bell Labs already had a programming language called "B" at their disposal. … The Unix operating system was originally created at Bell Labs by Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, and others.

Little boys' kindness to disfigured woman sparks 17 years of repaying that love through AWANA
Some little boys' showed love and kindness to Charlotte Hawkins, and their invitation to her to come to church resulted in hundreds of other children benefiting from her love. | Corinth Baptist Church, Loganville, Ga.
LOGANVILLE, Ga. (Christian Examiner) -- Bubble-like polyps cover her face and hands, and much of the rest of a Metro Atlanta woman's body, but she doesn't let the disfigurement or people's reactions to it stop her from being active in life.
Importantly, her courage to face the world's curious and sometimes shocked looks was strengthened in part by a simple act of kindness by some little boys.
Charlotte Hawkins has been a "listener" for Cubbies at Corinth Baptist Church's Awana children's ministry outreach for 17 years, where she's been a member for more than 30 years.
She's a member of the church's choir, travels and eats out with members of her Sunday School class, and routinely attends Bible workshops, missions conferences and Singspirations, as well as Sunday morning worship at Corinth, where about 400 members meet each week.
"We've had guests who have stared but our people have accepted Charlotte," said Tom Foskey, co-pastor of Corinth Baptist in Loganville. The congregation doesn't see a disfigurement; they just see a woman they love, he added.
"When we think of Charlotte, we just think of Charlotte," Foskey continued. "Our people have accepted her and loved her and helped her for more than 30 years."
Charlotte Hawkins' senior portrait. | Corinth Baptist Church, Loganville, Ga.
Hawkins' high school graduation photo shows an attractive, clear-faced brunette, but within 10 years the Georgia native had given up the battle to remove the noncancerous fibroids that had started growing on her lower back and face when she was 15.
During that 10 years, Hawkins married, gave birth to a son and moved at her husband's request to California. The fibroids came back – with a vengeance, some would say – her husband left, and with her mother's health declining, Hawkins returned to the small town east of Atlanta.
Then she experienced firsthand the childlike love and innocence Jesus extolled.
"Some little boys invited my son and me to church, and we started going on the bus," Hawkins said.
And from that simple invitation she grew in her commitment to her faith, wanting to give back in some way the love she received from those little boys.
"Within a couple of years I got to know the people, and I started working with AWANA, with Cubbies, for 17 years now."
Awana – Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed – from 2 Timothy 2:15, is a fully integrated evangelism and discipleship ministry that started in Chicago in 1950s. Today about 12,000 "Awana Clubs" are in churches across the U.S., and in more than 16,000 churches, schools and orphanages in 100 other nations, according to the Awana website, www.awana.org.
"Patient, loving, caring. Charlotte is all these," said Foskey, who was Awana Commander for 11 years. "She does what we call 'listening.' The little kids say their Bible verses to her, and she signs off in their book; that's what she does.
"And even when she's not working in Awana, anytime anything is going on here at the church, she's here," Foskey continued. "Charlotte is as faithful as anyone in our congregation."
Hawkins has been diagnosed with what her neurologist, Coruna Shaw M.D., said could be the worst case in America of someone with neurofibromatosis Type 1, an incurable and steadily-progressing disease.
"At first when I would go out children especially would get scared of me," Hawkins said. "Sometimes they still ask me what it is. It don't bother me now; I just let it go. I went to the doctor and there's nothing they can do."
Her son has married now; she has three grandchildren northeast of Atlanta to dote on when she's not at church; and she babysits for youngsters who live in her neighborhood.
"I love my grandchildren – I love all children – and I love my church," Hawkins said. "I like everybody in my church; they're friendly."
Corinth Loganville, an independent Baptist church, doesn't stop with accepting a woman with an unusual appearance. The church supports 200 mission projects each month in the U.S. and throughout the world.
"The sun never goes down on our missions program," Foskey said. "In the community this month, we're doing a Fall Festival so kids have a safe place to go for trick-or-treating. ... In December we have a Spirit of Christmas dinner, where we feed about 400 people a Christmas meal who might otherwise not have one."
A weekly visitation program insures all new residents of Loganville hear about the community they've chosen to live in, and about the church that welcomes everyone.
"The way Charlotte adds to it is by her faithfulness," Foskey said. "People who don't have half her problems, let those problems take the joy of the Lord from them. They get despondent; they become anti-social. Charlotte has bumped all of that."

President Uhuru Kenyatta will on Sunday host about 5,000 youths in Nyanza for the 2018 International Youth Day celebrations.
the country will be held at Gusii stadium in Kisii county.
will be accompanied by Deputy President William Ruto, cabinet secretaries, political leaders and artists.
State officials told the Star that the government has planned a series of events before the Sunday celebrations.
"This year's theme is 'Safe places for youth to empower themselves'," Youth Affairs Secretary in the DP's office, Antony Kibagendi, said in an interview.
National Steering Committee came up with the theme to showcase opportunities for youths to empower themselves.
The committee headed by Sabina Kweke will use the forum to discourage the victim mentality and discuss solutions to youths' problems.
"As a generation, we need to come to the realisation that there are numerous safe spaces for youths to exploit in agriculture, enterprise, governance and in the job market," Kibagendi said.
On Monday, the DP went to Makueni to launch a fruit tree planting exercise, as part of the celebrations.

The United Nations complex will host invited youth in Gigiri while the August House will hold its celebrations at Parliament buildings on Friday. Kibagendi asked MPs to attend the celebrations with two youths from their constituencies.
He added that the youths will be equipped with skills for self-reliance and given ideas on subjects including environmental conservation.
"We have incorporated all stakeholders, including youth departments in government and partners, who will exhibit at the events," he said.

The orchestra brought with them a bevy of popular impressionist Spanish pieces. We started with Ravel, whose birthplace in Ciboure, overlooking the harbour of St. Jean-de-Luz, I visited this summer. It is only eleven miles from the Spanish border, deep in the Basque territory of France. His musical family (his mother was Basque, his father Swiss) would have been steeped in Spanish influence. Afkham chose to conduct this work (and only this work) without a baton, using his long fingers and willowy stature to great effect. Afkham is a Parsee, his father was a doctor in Bombay; eschewing a suit or tails, Afkham sported a natty Nehru-style black tunic with mandarin collar. The orchestra immediately created a first-rate impression, especially when the principal woodwind made their individual contributions. The sound of the orchestra was perhaps not central European but that is hardly surprising. Afkham whipped up the orchestra into an orgiastic frenzy for the final 'Feria'.
Then on to Falla and his evocation of the heat of Andalusia, the gardens of Granada at the Alhambra and in Cordoba. Javier Perianes contributed his piano part with aplomb. He rewarded us with some Chopin, to which he added his own inventions.
After the interval, more impressionist music evoking the Iberian Peninsula, this time by Debussy. I preferred this to Ravel's early work and the Falla, although I was beginning to tire of the sound of castanets. The piece was more engrossing than those before the interval, and enabled the orchestra to play with more passion, particularly when the strings were strummed in the mode of Spanish guitars. It showed off Debussy's skills as a master orchestral colourist, especially when the chiming tubular bells evoke the sounds of the morning of a feast day.
To conclude, the 1919 Suite of The Firebird, which had clearly benefited from additional rehearsal time, perhaps because it was probably not – unlike the other works on the programme – part of the orchestra's standard touring repertoire. The suite gave the brass and timpanist their chance to shine; Afkham controlled the final pages to perfection to deliver a thrilling climax.
An encore is always expected from a visiting orchestra: I thought it might be Chabrier's España, in fact, it was part of Manuel de Falla's Three Cornered Hat.
A rather one-sided programme (all works written in Paris between 1908 and 1914) but an enjoyable one nevertheless.


The amount of interest is the pre-tax and calculated on the condition that the whole deposit amount has been received on our account by the start date of the agreement, all the conditions required for the entry into force of the deposit agreement have been met and the deposit amount is not withdrawn during the deposit period.
Why deposit money in Inbank?
Inbank deposit is suitable for you if you're looking for a risk-free way of increasing your savings. Put your free money in a deposit and make your savings grow.
Inbank is the bank that offers the best interest on term deposits.
Deposits opened in Inbank are guaranteed by the national Guarantee Fund.
You can open a deposit easily online.
Which deposit suits you the best?
The number of times money is withdrawn from or paid into a flexible deposit is not limited, but the maximum amount of a flexible deposit is double the initial amount and the minimal amount is 50% of the initial amount of deposit.
You can submit the application and sign the deposit agreement with your ID card or Mobile ID, or at an Inbank branch.
When depositing more than 15,000 euros, you will need to identify yourself at an Omniva or Inbank branch, which you can choose while signing the contract.
Transfer the amount to be deposited to Inbank's account using the current account and reference number indicated in the agreement.
At the end of the deposit period, you can transfer the money from your customer account in Inbank back to the same current account you used to open the deposit.
All the interest rates given are in percentages per year. We calculate interest on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days between the start and end dates of the periods.
The interest rates given apply to deposits in the case of which the interest payment is made at the end of the deposit period.
The maximum volume of the deposit amounts of a client is 300,000 euros. Every client has the right to open an unlimited number of deposits, but the total amount of these deposits may not exceed the maximum deposit amount per client. The maximum amount of a flexible deposit is considered a part of the maximum flexible deposit amount of a client in the case of flexible deposits.
Inbank offers the option to choose automatic renewal for deposits during the deposit period. This means that after the expiry of the selected period, the term of the deposit will extend automatically by the same period. For example, if you choose one year as the period and opt for automatic renewal, the deposit will extend for another year after the first year. The new interest will be the deposit interest effective on the day of renewal plus 0.10%.
Deposits opened in Inbank are guaranteed by the national Guarantee Fund. The deposits of our clients with accumulated interest are guaranteed in full, but not more than 100,000 euros per person. Further information about the deposit guarantee can be found on the website of the Guarantee Fund and in the Guarantee Fund Act. Read also the depositor information sheet.
You can cancel your deposit at any time by submitting a written application to info@inbank.ee. Inbank will not pay interest for the deposit period in the case of early termination. The deposit amount will be paid back to the customer account within 30 days. If you would like to get the deposit amount earlier, Inbank has the right to request the early payout fee according to the effective price list.
How can I open a deposit in Inbank?
In order to open a deposit in Inbank, log in to the Inbank internet bank and fill in the application for opening a term or flexible deposit. You can select the suitable deposit amount and period when you fill in the application. After filling in the application and signing the agreement, transfer the deposit amount to Inbank's account using the deposit reference number you will find in the agreement. The deposit amount must be received on Inbank's account within seven days of entry into the agreement, or the agreement will automatically become invalid.
How can I identify myself?
You can open a deposit when you log in to the internet bank using your ID card or Mobile ID. Additional identification at a branch is not necessary for opening a deposit.
Where will the deposit amount be paid after the expiry of the deposit?
After the expiry of the deposit period, Inbank will transfer the deposit and interest amount to your customer account from which you can transfer the money to your personal current account. The transfer is free of charge. Inbank will not send a separate notification about the expiry of the deposit. Log in to the Inbank internet bank to check the balance of your customer account and the expiry date of your deposit agreement.
What is a customer account?
A customer account is the account where the deposit and interest amount are held at the time when it is not held in an active deposit. You can transfer money to the customer account using the number of the Inbank current account given in the deposit agreement and your personal customer account reference number. The customer account is not a current account and payments cannot be made from it. You can transfer the amount in the customer account back to your current account from which you made the initial deposit payment to Inbank. The annual interest return of the customer account is 0.00%.
How is a deposit automatically renewed?
Inbank offers the option to choose automatic renewal for deposits during the deposit period. This means that after the expiry of the selected period, the term of the deposit will extend automatically by the same period. For example, if you choose one year as the period and opt for automatic renewal, the deposit will extend for another year after the first year. The new interest will be the deposit interest effective on the day of renewal plus 0.10%. This means that you can earn more interest than the ordinary interest rate in the price list if you opt for automatic renewal. You can set and cancel the automatic renewal of a deposit the day before the expiry of the specific deposit.
Can I cancel a deposit early and on which conditions can I do it?
You can cancel your deposit at any time by submitting a written application to info@inbank.ee. Inbank will not pay interest for the deposit period in the case of early termination. The deposit amount will be paid back to the customer account within 30 days. If you would like to get the deposit amount earlier, Inbank has the right to request the early payout fee according to the effective pricelist.
Inbank is a bank, so the deposits of our clients are guaranteed by the national Guarantee Fund. The deposits of our clients with accumulated interest are compensated in full, but for no more than 100,000 euros. Further information about the deposit guarantee can be found on the website of the Guarantee Fund and in the Guarantee Fund Act.
What is the different between a term and a flexible deposit?
In the case of a term deposit, a certain amount of money earns interest for a specified period of time. In the case of a flexible deposit, you can increase or decrease the initially deposited amount. A term deposit is suitable for you if you are sure that you will not need the money at a certain time. A flexible deposit allows you to use the deposited money more flexibly.
When is interest paid on the deposit?
When you fill in the deposit application, you can choose whether the interest payment will be made at the start of the period, every month or at the end of the period. 0.30% is subtracted from the interest rate if the interest payment of a term deposit is made at the start of the deposit period. 0.15% is subtracted from the interest rate if the interest payment of a term or flexible deposit is made every month.
Do I have to pay income tax on the interest earned on a deposit?
As of 2018, the state started taxing the interest earned on bank deposits, which are paid out in 2018 or later. The income tax payable on deposit interest is 20%. You will find more information about this on the website about taxation of deposit interest.

Mathias Track, Dandenong Ranges. Dog friendly walking trail.
Mathias Track is an easy, straightforward walk that is very popular with bushwalkers, dog owners, horse riders and mountain bikers. It does get busy, especially on weekends, though, it's always a joy to hike along. It's not as busy as the 1000 Steps walk, but has its fair share of foot traffic.
The track is muddy in parts during winter and usually remains this way until the end of September, it is still usable, but please keep in mind that good footwear will be required to keep your feet dry.
Mathias Track passes below the Dandenong Ranges Botanic Gardens (formerly the National Rhododendron Gardens) and Hamer Arboretum. Numerous trails lead off in all directions, a whole day can easily be spent hiking the trails in this part of the Dandenong Ranges National Park.
Dense forest on either side of the track opens up with occasional views across to Silvan and the Yarra Valley, autumn colour towards the Silvan Road end of Mathias Track is often really pretty and a popular spot for photographers.
A recent bike ride down Mathias Track is below, showing what to expect of a bushwalk along this trail. It is filmed on 'timewarp' mode on a Go Pro Hero 7 Black camera, so it is only 1 minute 32 seconds long despite having been a 20-minute bike ride!
Dog-friendly. Find dog-friendly cafes and more walking trails here.
The main access points are from the Silvan Road end or Falls Road end, plus there is access from the Hamer Arboretum or former Olinda Golf Course too. Parking is available at all spots.
Stay on the main trail for this walk and no further information is required, it is one of the most straightforward walks in the hills.
Please note: This track was previously known as Mathias Road. It is still marked as such on some maps.
As an alternative walk that can include Mathias Track, the old Olinda golf course is a fabulous walking area where dogs can be off lead and they will generally always have lots of company. Many locals walk their dogs here and it has some of the best views in the hills.
Park at the Golf Course and walk down the fairways, if you keep heading slightly to the lower left corner, it joins into Mathias Track. Perfect for an off-lead romp and then back on the lead along Mathias Track in either direction.
A large children's playground is currently under construction on the golf course, due to be completed mid-2019, it will be the perfect family spot to play and walk your dog in the off-lead section.
The Rock Track circuit walk also joins Mathias Track and runs down beside the golf course.

Google Korea offices raided yet again over mobile search complaints [Updated]
by Jon Russell — in Google
The Google office in Seoul has been raided once again by South Korea's Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) today as part of an investigation into claims that the search giant has adopted unfair trade practices in the country's mobile search space, according to an announcement.
Update: Google responded to our request and the company has denied that its offices were raided by Korean authorities. Dow Jones has corrected its story, after an official changed an earlier statement that was made in relation to the investigation. The news agency is now reporting that a meeting between KFTC and unnamed "local partner companies of Google" occurred today.
The news comes less than a month after Google Chairman Eric Schmidt met with the KFTC and a number of Android handset makers during a visit to the country, and represents the third time that authorities have searched the company country office.
The company premises in the Korean capital were searched during September as the KFTC investigated similar mobile-related complaints from NHN — the organisation behind leading search engine Naver — and Daum, which is Korea's second largest search firm.
The duo accused Google of banning all South Korean phone manufacturers from including third-party search applications under its marketing contract as well as delaying the certification of handset makers that "violated the condition".
Following the September raid, the company said that it was working to discuss the problems that the KFTC had with Android, and a spokesperson commented:
Android is an open platform, and carrier and OEM partners are free to decide which applications and services to include on their Android phones. We do not require carriers or manufacturers to include Google Search or Google applications on Android-powered devices.
The Korean authorities have had other run-ins with Google in the past. Police raided the company's offices back in May over what they perceived to be illegally obtained tracking data, a subject which saw Apple investigated in the country.
Google is yet to issue a statement on the latest investigation, but we have contacted the company for comment.

Curiosity Rover as Seen From High Above by Mars Orbiter

A camera on board NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter recently spotted the Curiosity rover in Gale Crater. The image is color-enriched to allow surface features to become more visible.(NASA/JPL-Caltech)
This is Apollo memory month, when the 50th anniversary arrives of the first landing of astronauts on the moon. It was a very big deal and certainly deserves attention and applause.
But there's something unsettling about the anniversary as well, a sense that the human exploration side of NASA's mission has disappointed and that its best days were many decades ago. After all, it has been quite a few years now since NASA has been able to even get an astronaut to the International Space Station without riding in a Russian capsule.
There have been wondrous (and brave) NASA human missions since Apollo — the several trips to the Hubble Space Telescope for emergency repair and upgrade come to mind — but many people who equate NASA with human space exploration are understandably dismayed.
This Many Worlds column does not focus on human space exploration, but rather on the science coming from space telescopes, solar system missions, and the search for life beyond Earth.

Sugar as a tool for asymmetric synthesis: Some effective approaches
Kiichiro Totani, Ken Ichi Takao, Kin Ichi Tadano
Department of Applied Chemistry
Highly diastereoselective carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions achieved on a variety of sugar templates were found. For example, methyl 6-deoxy-2,3-di-O-(t-butyldimethylsilyl)-α-D-glucopyranoside can serve as a versatile and effective chiral auxiliary. Namely, the 1,4-addition reactions to its 4-O-crotonyl ester of some carbon nucleophiles or alkyl radicals proceeded highly diastereoselectively to afford the corresponding adducts. The alkylation of the enolate generated from its 4-O-propionyl ester afforded the α-alkylated product with a useful level of stereoselectivity. Furthermore, the Diels-Alder reaction of its 4-O-acryloyl ester with cyclopentadiene afforded an endo-adduct stereoselectively. In the case of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the acryloyl ester, again the cycloadduct was obtained highly stereoselectively. Some other types of sugar templates prepared from methyl α-D-glucopyranoside, α-D-mannopyranoside and α-D- galactopyranoside were explored to verify their ability to function as chiral templates. In some cases, these templates afforded complementary results in the sense of diastereoselectivity.

Liberalism in Tunisia, or Tunisian Liberalism, is a school of political ideology that encompasses various political parties in the country.

Neo Destour

Social Liberal Party

in September 1988, the Social Liberal Party (PSL) was founded under the name "Social Party for Progress", but was renamed in October 1993 to reflect its liberal ideology. As well as liberal social and political reforms, the PSL advocates economic liberalisation, including the privatisation of state-owned firms. The party is a member of the Liberal International and the Africa Liberal Network.

Ettajdid Movement

Active from 1993 to 2012, the Ettajdid Movement (Movement for Renewal) was a centre-left secularist, democratic socialist and social liberal political party in Tunisia. It was led by Ahmed Ibrahim. For the Constituent assembly election, Ettajdid formed a strongly secularist alliance called Democratic Modernist Pole (PDM), of which it was the mainstay.

Ahmed Brahim was the First Secretary of the movement and also the leader of the Democratic Modernist Pole until April 2012, when his party merged into the Social Democratic Path of which he became the president. He was the Ettajdid Movement's candidate for President of Tunisia in the 2009 presidential election. Brahim was in favor of the emergence of a "democratic modern and secular [laicist] state" not connected with Islamists. According to Brahim, this would require "radical" reform of the electoral system, which would improve the political climate in guaranteeing freedom of assembly and a large scale independent press, as well as repealing a law that regulated public discourse of electoral candidates.

Progressive Democratic Party
In 1983, the Progressive Democratic Party (PDP) was founded under the name of Progressive Socialist Rally, and gained legal recognition on 12 September 1988. It was secular and liberal party. The party was renamed as Progressive Democratic Party in 2001. Under the rule of Ben Ali it was a legal opposition party, but subjected to political repression. After the Tunisian revolution it was one of the major left-leaning secular political forces. It was led by Ahmed Najib Chebbi and Maya Jribi. On 9 April 2012, it merged into the Republican Party. Maya Jribi, an outspoken feminist and anti-zionist, has been the first woman to lead a political party in Tunisia.

The Progressive Democratic Party had a newspaper, Al-Mawqif.

Congress for the Republic

On 25 July 2001, the creation of the Congress for the Republic (CPR) was declared. Is a centre-left, liberal and secular political party founded by 31 people including the physician, medicine professor and human rights activist Moncef Marzouki as president, Naziha Réjiba (Oum Ziad) as Secretary-general, Abderraouf Ayadi as vice-president, Samir Ben Amor as Treasurer, and Mohamed Chakroun as Honorary President. The CPR declared that it was aimed to install a republican form of government "for the first time"in Tunisia, including freedom of speech, freedom of association, and the holding of "free, honest" elections, "guaranteed by national and international observers able to genuinely check all levels of the electoral process". The CPR's declaration also called for a new constitution, strict separation of the different branches of government, human rights guarantees, gender equality, and a constitutional court for protecting individual and collective rights. The CPR called for renegotiating Tunisian commitments toward the European Union, for Tunisia to support the rights of national self-determination, in particular for the Palestinian people.

Tunisian Pirate Party
Formed in 2010 and legalised on 12 March 2012, the Tunisian Pirate Party is a small political party in Tunisia. It's one of the first outgrowths of the Pirate Party movement in continental Africa. The party achieved notoriety during the Tunisian revolution, as party members declared their intention to break a media blackout on the social unrest taking place across the country. Members distributed censorship circumvention software, and assisted in documenting human rights abuses during the riots in the cities of Sidi Bouzid, Siliana, and Thala. After the revolution, a Pirate Party member who had been detained during the unrest, Slim Amamou, was briefly selected as Secretary of State for Sport and Youth in the new government. He later resigned in protest of the transitional government's censorship of several websites at the request of the army. He was arrested on 6 January 2011 during the protests that led to the Tunisian Revolution, alongside others including Azyz Amami. The Anonymous hacktivist group had led attacks on the Tunisian government's websites, and Amamou was held for five days by the state security forces under the suspicion of having collaborated with the hackers. Following a mass internet campaign and protest, Amamou and other bloggers were released from government custody. He supports the legalisation of cannabis in Tunisia. He is an advocate for network neutrality and opposes internet censorship.

Tunisian Revolution

The Tunisian Revolution was an intensive campaign of civil resistance, including a series of street demonstrations taking place in Tunisia, and led to the ousting of longtime president Zine El Abidine Ben Ali in January 2011. It eventually led to a thorough democratization of the country and to free and democratic elections with the Tunisian Constitution of 2014, which is seen as progressive, increases human rights, gender equality, government duties toward people, lays the ground for a new parliamentary system and makes Tunisia a decentralized and open government. And with the held of the country first parliamentary elections since the 2011 Arab Spring and its presidentials on 23 November 2014, which finished its transition to a democratic state. These elections were characterized by the fall in popularity of Ennahdha, for the secular Nidaa Tounes party, which became the first party of the country.

The demonstrations were caused by high unemployment, food inflation, corruption, a lack of political freedoms like freedom of speech and poor living conditions. The protests constituted the most dramatic wave of social and political unrest in Tunisia in three decades and resulted in scores of deaths and injuries, most of which were the result of action by police and security forces against demonstrators. The protests were sparked by the self-immolation of Mohamed Bouazizi on 17 December 2010 and led to the ousting of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali 28 days later on 14 January 2011, when he officially resigned after fleeing to Saudi Arabia, ending 23 years in power. Labour unions were said to be an integral part of the protests. The Tunisian National Dialogue Quartet was awarded the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize for "its decisive contribution to the building of a pluralistic democracy in Tunisia in the wake of the Tunisian Revolution of 2011". The protests inspired similar actions throughout the Arab world.

Maghrebi Republican Party
On 22 March 2011 the Maghrebi Republican Party (PRM) was founded by Mohamed Bouebdelli, head of the Free University of Tunis, under the name of Maghrebi Liberal Party and it changed its name to Maghrebi Republican Party on 13 April 2012. The party is liberal.

Afek Tounes

Founded on , Afek Tounes (Tunisian Horizons) is a centre-right political party in Tunisia. Its program is liberal, focusing on secularism and civil liberties. The party mainly appealed to intellectuals and the upper class. After underperforming in the 2011 Constituent Assembly election, Afek Tounes joined talks with other secularist and liberal parties, especially the Progressive Democratic Party to form a "big party of the centre". The merger was completed on 9 April 2012. The new party is called the Republican Party. In August 2013, Yassine Brahim, current leader of the party, and other former party members left the Republican Party to revive Afek Tounes.

Free Patriotic Union

Pirate Party

For years the US Chamber of Commerce has been releasing phony reports warning Americans that frivolous, junk lawsuits are clogging our court systems, causing prices of insurance, consumer goods, and everything else under the sun to rise. But while they were working to keep you out of the courts, they were filing dozens of lawsuits on behalf of their corporate cronies – in fact, in 2009 they averaged one lawsuit filing every 3 days. Mike Papantonio talks about why the Chamber secretly loves litigation with Linda Lipsen, the CEO of the American Association for Justice.
