EP REVIEW: 'Saw You In A Dream' – The Japanese House
By Tom Moodey
Given the current climate of contemporary electropop music, you'd be hard pushed to find an artist that is not setting out to purely make a three and a half minute chart-topping song, consisting of a chanting chorus and a rigid, trap-esque rhythm.
Yet, the vibrant energy of Amber Bain's musical advances reveals a completely different story. The Japanese House – a synth and guitar-led pop act consisting of Bain alone – delves into much more than the popular music that we are used to. She is able to mould melodies into stories of love, identity and adventure and her most recent EP, Saw You In A Dream, does just that.
The EP's title track relies on a simple beat and minimal melodic complications in order to emphasise Bain's carefully calculated vocals. They are calculated through the clear relationship that Bain's vocals have with the production – each lyric embedded into the melody effortlessly and unscathed.
The majority of her work is self-produced, and each song acts as the evidence of its success. 'Saw You In A Dream' is a song to be swayed to and its electro-pop pulse encourages the listener to bop the head and tap a foot for the entire four minutes,
whilst segments of chiming guitar echo alongside the vocals.
'Somebody You Found' demonstrates a similar structure and sound that again enables Bain to share her haunting voice with distinctive diction, whilst '3/3' offers a different audio experience. Its slower tempo and prominent 'clap' on each beat, shows Bain's ability to make arena anthems that deserve to be sung by audiences at the top of their lungs.
Closing track, 'Count To Nine' epitomises what The Japanese House is really about. The work is nine minutes long and opens with a glorious soundscape that gives the image of the sun awakening from a nightlong absence. This then promptly cuts to the sound of a twinkling acoustic guitar cushioning Bain's harmonised vocals. Unlike the previous sounds that are explored throughout her career, 'Count To Nine' blends many more genres and involves so much musicality.
Despite being somewhat of an electro-pop musician in her own right, Amber Bain, along with her latest musical offering as The Japanese House, has once again shattered the stereotypical view of what an electro-pop musician is and has to be.

Q: Counting number of occurrences by particular stage I have a snapshot of a table running each night and am looking to get the total time a company stays in a particular stage.
i.e company A spent 2 days in 'Sales'. company B 2 days in 'Sales' and 1 day in 'Negotiation'.
I don't care about days in 'Closed' since at that time the opportunity would be won.
Name Stage Extract_Date
A    Sales 2020-07-04
A    Sales 2020-07-05
A    Closed 2020-07-06
B    Sales 2020-07-04
B    Sales 2020-07-05
B    Negot 2020-07-06
B    Closed 2020-07-07
B    Closed 2020-07-08
C    Sales 2020-07-04
C    Sales 2020-07-05

I'm at a complete block at starting this, would it as simple as
SELECT Name, Stage, COUNT(Extract_Date)
FROM Table
GROUP BY Name, Stage

Or would a window function be more approriate?

A: Hmmm . . . I think you are close.  Assuming states do not repeat (as in your sample data):
select name, stage, min(extract_date) as start_date,
       lead(min(extract_date)) over (partition by name order by min(extract_date)) as end_date
from t
group by name, stage;

You can then use an appropriate function such as datediff() or timestampdiff() to get the difference you want.

Bettelmatt is a rare cheese produced in Piedmont with cow Bruno Alpina raw milk in the high valleys Antigorio and Formazza.
The pastures authorized to produce it are only seven and are placed in altitudes ranging from 1,800 to 2,400 meters s.l.m. The forms produced each year are less than 2,000 and are reserved each year a few enthusiasts.
The cheese is characterized by a texture extraordinarily "buttery", with a scent of pasture grass with mattolina herb, present in high concentration in this area. Very nice is also the golden color that propels us definitely to high altitude landscapes.

Assemblymember Wallace Appointed to Assembly Judiciary Committee
Today, Assemblymember Monica Wallace (D-Lancaster) announced that she has been appointed to the New York State Assembly Judiciary Committee. Wallace, who has served the 143rd Assembly District since 2017, previously served as a confidential law clerk to U. S. District Court Judge Richard J. Arcara, as a staff attorney at the New York Court of Appeals 2nd Circuit, and as a faculty member at SUNY Buffalo Law School, where she received her law degree.
"Having spent much of my career prior to the Assembly working in the judicial system, I am confident that my background and experience will help inform the work of the Judiciary Committee," said Wallace. "I look forward to lending my expertise to the committee to ensure that Western New York has a strong voice on all matters over which the committee has oversight."
Wallace noted, for example, that she participated in the rollout of the electronic case filing system while working in the federal courts, and can speak directly to the challenges and benefits of expanding electronic court filing throughout all of New York State, a topic which the Judiciary Committee has recently held public hearings on.
The Assembly Committee on Judiciary has jurisdiction over legislation affecting all aspects of both state and local courts. It has primary jurisdiction over amendments to the State Constitution, Civil Practice Law and Rules, Judiciary Law, Uniform Court Acts, Family Court Act, Surrogate's Court and Procedure Act, Domestic Relations Law, Estates Powers and Trusts Law, Uniform Commercial Code, Lien Law, Debtor-Creditor Law, General Obligations Law, Real Property Law, Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law, Civil Rights Law, Partnership Law, Eminent Domain Procedure Law and Indian Law. The committee also shares budgetary oversight of the Office of Court Administration and the Department of Law with the Assembly Ways and Means Committee. In addition, all proposed amendments to the New York State Constitution are considered by the Judiciary Committee.

Medtech: Cibiltech seeks 15 million to help transplant patients – Teller Report
Challenges – How did the idea of Cibiltech come about?
Stephane Tholander – I was already an entrepreneur when I met Alexandre Loupy, nephrologist and transplant surgeon at Inserm-AP-HP-University of Paris. He had compiled a unique database in kidney transplantation and developed an algorithm that predicts the risk of rejection of a transplant at three, five or ten years.
How is it useful?
The waiting list for kidney transplants is growing every year: more than 17,000 French people were waiting on January 1, 2021, a figure up 27%, while there are only 4,000 transplants performed per year . In the list are the people whose graft did not survive. After ten years, 50% of patients return to dialysis. Our goal is to extend the life of the graft.
How? 'Or' What?
The algorithm made it possible to create two applications. The first is used for the development of new drugs. We are able to predict the impact of such or such immunosuppressive treatment on the patient, and on the probability of graft survival. This reduces the duration of clinical studies. Our clients are labs like Novartis or Sanofi. This activity represents about half of our turnover, of 3.5 million euros.
What is the second application?
Our algorithm helps hospital doctors to better anticipate the deterioration of the condition of patients and their graft, in order to administer more personalized treatments to them, earlier. After each biological or clinical analysis in town or at the hospital, our tool analyzes the results, and if the probability of survival of the graft drops drastically, we alert the hospital team so that they can investigate further. For this second application, we are still conducting clinical studies.
Which hospitals use it?
We are deployed in around a hundred hospitals: 70 in the United States with the exclusive distributor CareDx, where 10,000 patients have been followed, and around thirty in Europe, notably Necker in Paris, Fundació Puigvert in Barcelona or Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust in England. In France, 2,000 patients have been followed. Ultimately, our model is based on reimbursement by health insurance. We expect to be eligible within two years. We are already the first digital medical device to have CE marking since the rules changed.
Why are you looking for 15 million?
To conduct our clinical study on an international scale and deploy our solution in the majority of major European and American hospitals. We are aiming for 100 million in turnover by 2027.
What is your growth dream?
Become a global leader in digital health. But if France has relied heavily on artificial intelligence in health, there are still deployment issues. We need sustainable reimbursement models, a modern IT ecosystem in hospitals, and training health professionals in digital technology, and those working in digital health.

I met a remarkable man today following the weekly international student ministries gathering. He's a fifty or sixty-something from Michigan who has been serving for over fifteen years as a missionary of sorts, spreading the word and helping to mentor students through group and individual discussions. He lived for a while in Florida where he worked in law enforcement, and somewhere along the line of duty he became fascinated with politics.
He has gone on missions to central America in the past and this most recent return home has been his longest this year, a whole three and a half weeks so far. He intends to travel back to central America in February, circumstances permitting.
He has traveled across much of the United States and is considering picking up an RV to allow him a home away from home. I was going to ask if his wife minded his constantly traveling, but I never did for fear that I might be overstepping myself – he told me later that there was infidelity in his marriage on his wife's part. The words stumbled out.
He has a daughter and a granddaughter who visit him from time to time. He underwent a liver transplant eight years ago. He was undergoing surgery for something at one point in time when he began hemorrhaging. He bled out and recounted to me the experience of feeling himself dying, his heartbeat growing dull and muffled. He told me how blessed he feels to be able to walk this earth now and to go on touching the lives of high school and college students. He and I shook hands and went our separate ways – he still has to finish building his granddaughter's clubhouse and he tells me that there are only a few pieces of wood left to go.
It feels so easy for me to talk about someone else. I sat on the concrete steps of the Wesley Foundation with him for an hour, hearing his story and relating pieces of my own. There is so much to be learned from others, regardless of what walk of life they come from. He is a blessed man, and I am grateful to have met him.

The stone horse with face toward into the inner side; we can sure that the horse is which Ouyang Xiu saw before the temple.
When Ouyang Xiu who is great writer in Song Dynasty as county magistrate in Yiling, he only believe Yu opened the mountain to harness flood, but don't believe ox knock rock, so he renamed "Huangniu Temple" as "Huangling Temple". For this reason, he wrote Huangniu Gorge Temple. Su Dongpo was agreed with Ouyang Xiu, he also wrote a poem to express his idea.

Q: Spring data custom N1QL query returns property document to null I'm using spring-data-couchbase 2.1.2, I redefined a repository with a custom query:
@Override
public List<PortfolioDocument> searchPortfolio() {

    CouchbaseOperations template = templateProvider.resolve(PortfolioRepository.class, PortfolioDocument.class);

    String statement = "select META(ipdb).id AS _ID, META(ipdb).cas AS _CAS, * " +
        "from ipdb where _class = 'com.ipdb.datamodel.document.PortfolioDocument' AND  title = 'dummytitle'";
    SimpleN1qlQuery query = N1qlQuery.simple(statement);;
    List<PortfolioDocument> portfolioDocuments = template.findByN1QL(query, PortfolioDocument.class);

    ....
}

template.findByN1QL(query, PortfolioDocument.class); returns some PortfolioDocument with all property to null except the id property.
If I call template.findByOne(id); the resulting object is ok.
Can you help me, please?

A: I have found a solution. The correct query is:
SELECT META(`ipdb`).id AS _ID, META(`ipdb`).cas AS _CAS, `ipdb`.* FROM `ipdb` WHERE ...

The best practice is to use the methods of N1qlUtils, you can look at the example below:
Statement statement = N1qlUtils.createSelectClauseForEntity(template.getCouchbaseBucket().name()).
  from(Expression.i(template.getCouchbaseBucket().name()))
    .where(".....");

createSelectClauseForEntity and from methods build the a part of query.


This book discusses and examines the organizational effectiveness of CATA (Comite de Apoyo a Trabajadores Agricolas), a Puerto Rican Migrant Farmworkers organization, in New Jersey. It focuses on the relationship between change in organizational structure and effectiveness of the Puerto Rican Migrant Farmworkers movement as it underwent development. The author concludes that the Puerto Rican migrant farmworkers organizing movement is characterized as a migrant farmworker proletarian formation. The movement has historically shown conflict between democracy and centralism, theory and practice, and nationalism and paternalism. This study serves as a successful model for organizing migrant farmworkers in this country.

Sega Dreamcast darling Shenmue is becoming an anime series
I've often heard that Shenmue set the standard for a living, breathing open world in video games when it was released on Sega Dreamcast in 1999. It was followed by some of the most highly anticipated video game sequels ever made, and Shenmue III set a record for the most-funded Kickstarter game in 2015.
Now, AT&T's Crunchyroll has announced that Shenmue is getting its own anime series.
According to Deadline, it'll air on Adult Swim's Toonami in the United States, not just on Crunchyroll itself, and will follow game protagonist Ryo Hazuki in his quest to become a martial artist and avenge his father's murder.
Other than that rough outline, the image above, and the fact that Crunchyroll has ordered 13 episodes, we don't have much more to share. Shenmue creator Yu Suzuki will have an executive producer credit, and it'll be directed by Chikara Sakurai whose IMDB profile you can browse here.
Shenmue III wound up being something of a disappointment since the game's 20-year-old reputation for innovation couldn't carry forward to the modern day, but perhaps the story will carry itself as a focused anime series.
Personally, I'm a huge fan of what have often been dubbed Shenmue's spiritual successors: the Yakuza series.

34bE12, anti-cytokeratin K903 34bE12
This monoclonal mouse antibody reacts with cytokeratins 1, 5, 10 and 145. 903 is the catalogue number. Immunoreactivity in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue requires antigen retrieval. Use proteolytic treatment for prostatic tissue and microwave antigen retrieval with overnight incubation of the primary antibody at 4°C for thyroid tissue1.
Immunohistochemical expression
normal squamous, ductal and other complex epithelia
In the lung, bronchial basal and parabasal cells and some vertically orientated non-mucinous cells5. Squamous cell carcinoma, including lung and including basaloid variant of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung2 and basaloid cell carcinoma of the lung2. There is slight staining of myoepithelial cells and of cuboidal and columnar cells of bronchial ducts.5 Bronchiolar basal cells stain, whereas Clara cells and type I and II pneumocytes are unstained5. Neuroendocrine hyperplasia and tumourlets are negative5.
ductal carcinoma of breast, pancreas, bile duct and salivary gland
transitional cell carcinoma of bladder

epithelioid mesothelioma
It is negative in:
endometrioid carcinoma
neuroendocrine tumours of lung
Diagnostic utility
34bE12 reacts with the basal cells in benign prostatic acini, including basal cell hyperplasia and atypical adenomatous hyperplasia7, but not with prostatic adenocarcinoma1,8. Staining may occur in some prostatic carcinomas13, particularly high-grade carcinomas (Gleason score at least 7)10. There are rare prostatic carcinomas in which there appear to be residual basal cells, positive for both 34bE12 and p6311,12.
Staining is patchy in benign glands and only the complete absence of basal cell staining in all glands in a particular focus of concern should be taken as evidence of carcinoma14. CK5/6 may be superior, particularly when Hollandes fixative is used, although the paper that made this claim used proteolytic digestion for 34bE12 and heat-induced antigen retrieval for CK5/64. One study found that 11% of normal glands and 40% of atrophic glands had a discontinuous pattern of staining3. Since the intensity of staining varies for technical reasons, adjacent benign gland should be used as an internal control6. There is progressive loss of staining with prolonged fixation, which may be retrieved by the heat-induced (hot plate) method of antigen retrieval, which is superior to enzymatic pretreatment14, although this may also cause weak staining of malignant glands9. 34bE12 is useful in conjunction with P504S, which shows a complementary positivity in prostatic adenocarcinoma. It may be somewhat inferior to p63 and a cocktail of 34bE12 and p63 may be superior to either alone.
reacts with papillary carcinoma, but not (or only focally) with hyperplastic thyroid nodules or follicular carcinoma1.

Such opportunities played a large role in shaping the electronic aspects of their output, primarily the subtleties of the low-end and their attention to groove. Howie attributes such a focus to Scissor and Thread boss Francis Harris, whom he describes as a "king of the low-end." The influence is apparent on reflective opener "Like It or Not" and the two-step influenced "Nothing At All," where the bass remains robust and powerful while not dominating the entire composition.
"If you look at the essence of dance music, going back to disco, R&B and soul, the bass and drums often drive those tracks" Howie points out. "When you have that foundation in place, it opens up musical doors to write chords and melodies for guitar or keys."
Unlike the famed city planner from whom they take their group name, the architecture behind a Bob Moses track comes from a more fluid place than simply pairing melodies with beats. Vallance says the duo can build around a rhythm section groove or a melody depending on which one strikes them as song material first.
The lyrics come last, written from personal perspectives in a process that Howie says is not only one of self-expression, but also self-discovery. Themes of regret run throughout "Talk" and "Before I Fall," juxtaposed with tales of temptation and indulgence with the more upbeat "Too Much iI Never Enough" and the slinky "Tearing Me Up." The duo say these themes are lyrically linked to grunge, blues, and rock classics they were drawn to growing up.
"Look at songs like 'Hey, Hey, What Can I Do' by Led Zeppelin or 'Ruby Tuesday' from the Rolling Stones," proposes Vallance. "Those are two happy-sounding tracks with darker lyrical content that connected with people. I think it's only natural how we've put some of that feeling into our own material."
Howie clarifies, "If we're going to say something with our music, we'd like it to be authentic and that tends to lean more towards melancholy for us at this point, but it's not like we're two depressed guys. We're actually pretty happy-go-lucky. We just think there's enough people writing Katy Perry's 'Last Friday Night.'"

TEAC SR-100i iPod Dock
Sony reinvented portable music reproduction with its Walkman cassette player in the early 1980s, and in no time at all Walkmen appeared on waistbands around the world. But while the Walkman was a smash hit, it didn't spur an entire new line of accessories, as has the Apple iPod. Apple didn't invent portable music, but it sure gave a lot of companies a reason to do some innovating of their own.
One of the earliest iPod accessories was the speaker dock, which freed the listener from having to use headphones while offering a convenient place to recharge the player's battery. While the iPod has gone through many iterations, I can't recall too many iPod speaker docks. Maybe that's because they were forgettable, but I also think it's because there haven't been as many designs as might have been expected, given the huge number of iPods sold to date.
With its SR-100i, TEAC offers not just an iPod charger with speakers, but an entire sound system compressed into a shape that looks like a slightly angular football, and a lot like B&W's Zeppelin, but with a fatter midsection. A major difference between the Zeppelin and the SR-100i are their respective prices of $600 and $299.99 USD. Bowers & Wilkins would no doubt argue that there are also qualitative differences, with the Zeppelin's amplification being designed and built by Classé and its speakers developed by B&W's own engineers. But TEAC is the parent company of Esoteric, itself no slouch in high-end audio. TEAC is also well known as a maker of kick-butt mini audio systems that have won over SoundStage! Network reviewers in full-on evaluations and even at audio shows.
The SR-100i is chock full of features. First, TEAC claims that it includes a 50Wpc amplifier. That's a lot of power output in a package that measures only 22.4"W x 9"H x 8.7"D and weighs but 12 pounds. Sharing space with the amp and a whole slew of sources (see below) are one 3.5" woofer and one 1.25" tweeter per channel. The SR-100i's iPod dock is a cool retractable drawer that seems to be fluid-damped: When you want the dock to appear, it doesn't just pop out, it glides. The dock itself is said to be compatible with all recent-model iPods, but it won't work with or even charge an iPad (par for the course for that product).
The SR-100i is much more than a simple iPod player. Also included are an AM/FM tuner, a slot-loading CD player, alarm-clock functions, a full-featured remote control that also controls iPod functions, and an auxiliary input in the form of a pair of singled-ended RCA jacks. Of perhaps greater interest to the MP3 generation is the SR-100i's ability to play MP3 files directly from a USB memory stick. And as if being able to play music from five different sources weren't enough, TEAC has upped the ante with preprogrammed equalization settings (e.g., Jazz, Classical, Rock), plus Super Bass and Loudness controls, which add a metric ton of heft to the SR-100i's bottom end.
The TEAC SR-100i is simple to set up -- just plug it in and you're ready to play music. I eschewed the manual, so it took me a while to figure out that the clock and alarm functions can be set only when the unit is powered off. Other than that, I found the SR-100i a cinch to operate. The only qualms I had about its operation were the inordinate amount of time it took to load a CD -- a whopping 12 seconds from the moment the disc began to slide into the machine until the music started -- and the fact that the Loudness and EQ functions won't engage until the volume is set to "7" or higher.
Despite its smallness and lack of any substantial speakers, the TEAC SR-100i did a good job of filling with sound my 35' x 15' living room. Dave Brubeck's piano on his So What's New? (16/44.1 FLAC, Telarc CD-83434) was clear and realistic, as was Bobby Militello's alto saxophone. The bass and drums were available in abundance with the Loudness function turned on, but, as is often the case with electronically assisted bass, you can have too much of a good thing. When it came to backstopping a party or providing punch in the kitchen, the SR-100i delivered. In fact, people will start looking around for the subwoofer.
With the Loudness and EQ turned off, the bass largely disappeared, as was vividly illustrated by Tom Petty's "Breakdown" (Greatest Hits, 16/44.1 FLAC, MCA) and "I Need to Know," in which the bass and drums slid into a nondescript background sound with the electronic aids turned off, but were right there, up front and center, with everything switched in. Petty's voice, and the guitar and hi-hat, were nicely rendered, and the overall presentation was in the fun zone. Well, as fun as Tom Petty gets.
The power of the bass-boost functions was a blessing in a big room or when I turned up the volume, but something of a curse at low listening levels. The EQ and Loudness cutoffs meant that, at or below a volume level of "7," the SR-100i didn't produce much bass at all. For a few nights I used the SR-100i as my bedside sound system and alarm clock, and found that "7" was just too loud for that purpose. I also found I didn't want to listen to the SR-100i at close quarters with its electronic aids turned off. In the living room or kitchen, where a volume setting of "7" or even above is really just the starting point, the boosts were always available, and the SR-100i was much easier to enjoy.
The SR-100i's iPod dock sounded better to me than its CD player. There are a couple of reasons why this shouldn't be, not least of which is the iPod's notoriously bad internal D/A converter, which doesn't do the sound of its analog output any favors. For most buyers who like the SR-100i as an iPod dock, it probably will be the source of choice, too; think of SR-100i CD player as an average performer that TEAC has thrown in for free.
I am no fan of MP3s. The stripping away of key sonic information in the name of making small files makes their sound a mere shadow of the original recording. Nonetheless, I made up several files at the highest MP3 quality setting, stored them on a generic 4GB memory stick, and plugged it into the USB port on the rear of the SR-100i. To my surprise, the sound was . . . pretty good! It wasn't quite as clean and clear as the sound from the SR-100i's iPod dock. This was an interesting development -- the settings for the MP3 rip were essentially the same as the lossily compressed (read: stripped) Apple AAC files on my iPod Nano (current generation). It could be that the iPod signal gets some preferential treatment inside the SR-100i, or that the iPod interface is sonically superior to the USB port. Whatever the case, the SR-100i should not disappoint anyone with a library of MP3s to go along with their Apple music files.
I didn't have a B&W Zeppelin on hand for comparison, but I did have my trusty old Mirage OmniVibe, an iPod-only dock with no EQ or Loudness function that's half the size of the SR-100i and cost a paltry $99. The Mirage's party piece is its omnidirectional driver array, designed to radiate sound through a full 360 degrees, not just the usual 180. This radiation pattern tends to make Mirage's Omni speakers sound bigger than they are, and the OmniVibe is no exception. The Mirage thus had an edge on the TEAC in soundstage reproduction: It's not always easy to tell that the sound is coming from the OmniVibe, but it was always clear that the TEAC was the source of the music.
In the bass department, however, the little Mirage couldn't hold a candle to the TEAC, though what bass it does produce is somewhat better defined. With the Mirage, the acoustic bass in "Chasing Pirates," from Norah Jones's The Fall (16/44.1 FLAC, Blue Note), is almost undetectable -- with the TEAC, it emerged with great gusto. Does the TEAC's extra bass make it worth $200 more than the Mirage? Well, if you throw in the fact that the TEAC plays CDs, has radio and USB functionality, a host of signal-manipulation tools, and a remote control, then yes -- the SR-100i is certainly worth more. Although I preferred the Mirage at lower volumes, only the TEAC could fill a room with satisfying sound.
Living with the TEAC SR-100i was eye-opening in a number of ways, but mostly because it proved popular with the members of my household, and with pretty much everyone else who heard it playing here. It has a stylish, modern design, offers pretty much all the functionality anyone could want in a small sound system, and has an iPod dock that sounds really quite good. It will fill most rooms with enough powerful sound and enough bottom end to satisfy all but the most bass hungry. In short, the TEAC SR-100i rocks.

Coal investors told to diversify before carbon bubble bursts
by on April 29, 2013
Sydney, April 29 — Coal investors could suffer heavy losses in the future as carbon assets are frozen by regulators to achieve global warming targets, a new research report has found.
The report, "Unburnable Carbon: Australia's carbon bubble," launched jointly Monday by the Carbon Tracker Initiative and the Climate Institute, claims that Australian coal companies are irresponsibly investing large amounts in developing coal reserves that will ultimately have to go unburnt if the nation is to achieve its carbon reduction commitments.
"Much of our reserves of potential resources rest on a speculative bubble of climate denial, indifference or dreaming," said John Connor, CEO of the Climate Institute, an independent Australian research organization.
"In Australia, coal-related companies spent more than 6 billion AU dollars last year expanding those reserves and infrastructure. It's clear from this report they are being gambled on a world that may not and should not exist," said Connor.
The report follows Carbon Tracker's recent global analysis which stated that for there to be an 80 percent chance of achieving internationally agreed targets of limiting global warming to two degrees Celsius, only 20 percent to 40 percent of existing coal, gas and oil reserves can be burnt.
Taking Australia as a case study, the new report found that the 51 gigatons of carbon pollution in Australian coal companies' reserves represents about 25 percent of a global carbon budget for coal. Australian coal exports only represent 11 percent of the global market.
"There is a clear unbalance between the current level of Australia's coal production and their share of a global coal budget. To us, this says that Australian coal companies are planning for a five to six degree future. We feel this is a really risky assumption which is fundamental to the future financial value of these companies," said principle author Luke Sussams.
"We found that BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto could lose 4 percent to 5 percent of their market value due to the stranding of coal assets in a two-degrees scenario, and this is a risk which they' re toying with," said Sussams.
Australia should not rely on China's seemingly insatiable demand for coal, Sussams added, with market forces indicating that Australian coal is at risk.
"China said in their latest five-year plan that they're going to cap coal consumption at 4 billion tons, which is pretty much their current level of consumption.
"We've seen China's ability to redirect capital, to contract certain sectors and grow others. So I think there's no reason to believe that they would not be able to achieve this target. To me, it seems that you ignore this clear political signal at your peril, " Sussams said.
Although the researchers cannot pinpoint when the so-called carbon bubble will burst, they recommend that companies and investors diversify their portfolios into more competitive, secure and climate-proof long term alternatives — especially as renewable energy technology becomes more cost effective.
"You can't decry anybody for investing in a fossil fuel company or setting one up in the hope that this bubble doesn't explode. That's the way free markets work. But the real issue for the long-term asset owners is what is the chances of it exploding in five years, ten years, fifteen years," said principle author Julian Poulter.
"I think it's going to be very difficult for undiversified companies to escape the bubble, and I think there's a very strong argument that the superannuation funds and other asset owners should drive engagement with the diversified miners like BHP and Rio and so forth, because they have some options.
"You can't expect Woodside Petroleum to become a mobile phone company, but there's a good case for engaging heavily with something like BHP to start winding down its long-term exposures to coal," Poulter said. (PNA/Xinhua)

Jets' Darnold trade possibilities point to Broncos, Panthers
Just three years ago, Sam Darnold was the would-be franchise quarterback savior for the Jets. Now, it looks like he may be on his way out of town.
All signs are pointing to the Jets selecting BYU quarterback Zach Wilson with the No. 2-overall pick in the April 29 draft. Wilson will then get his crack at being the franchise quarterback the Jets have been searching for over the last 45 years.
The question now is what Jets general manager Joe Douglas can get for Darnold in a trade and who the potential trade partners might be. Several teams which looked like possible partners found other options at quarterback over the last month. The Colts, 49ers and Washington all went in other directions after being suggested as landing spots for Darnold.
So, who's left?
Darnold is not going to be viewed as a Day 1 starter by anyone. That is clear. The most likely trade partner is a team that has a starter in place it is not completely sold on. Darnold could provide competition in training camp or be a solid backup who can become the starter if the current QB1 stumbles.
The Broncos make the most sense in this category. They have Drew Lock penciled in at starter right now. Denver liked Darnold when he was coming out in the 2018 draft. The Broncos have had a change at the top since then. George Paton is their new general manager even though John Elway remains with the team.
Denver has the No. 9-overall pick. It is possible the Broncos can draft the fifth quarterback taken this year, or they could attempt to move up. But it feels like the top four picks will all be quarterbacks, so the Broncos may not be able to get high enough to get even their fourth choice.
The Panthers are in a similar situation. The signals were clear that Carolina was going to make a run at Deshaun Watson if the Texans ever made the star quarterback available. That came before Watson faced multiple lawsuits from women alleging sexual harassment and assault. If Watson is off the table, the Panthers may have to go into 2021 with Teddy Bridgwater as their top quarterback. Darnold and Bridgewater competed in training camp in 2018 with the Jets. Could they be reunited in Charlotte? Like the Broncos, the Panthers are in no-man's land when it comes to the draft. They hold the No. 8 pick and could see their top four quarterbacks gone by then.
The scenarios with the Broncos and the Panthers raise the question of timing on any Darnold trade. The Jets have wanted to complete their evaluations of the college quarterbacks before dealing Darnold. Those evaluations are nearly complete. Ohio State's Justin Fields has his pro day on Tuesday. The medical checks will take place April 8-10 in Indianapolis, and Wilson's surgically repaired shoulder will be examined so the Jets can see if there are any issues. The trade window most likely opens wide then.
The Jets may have to wait until Day 2 of the draft to make a deal, though. At that point, they will have Wilson, and teams like the Broncos or the Panthers may be ready to make a move after missing out on a quarterback in the first round the night before. The Jets may be able to get one of their Day 2 picks along with something else. Most people around the NFL project the Jets to be able to get a second-round pick and a mid-round pick. Those picks could come in 2022, though.
Other teams that are possible trade partners would be the Bears and the Steelers. The Bears signed Andy Dalton and are hyping him as their starter, but their No. 2 right now is Nick Foles. Would Chicago rather have Darnold to compete with Dalton? The Jets still need a veteran backup, and maybe Douglas would want Foles back in the trade. He did win a Super Bowl with the Eagles in 2017 with Foles.
The Steelers have Ben Roethlisberger back in 2021, but this looks like it will be his final season. Pittsburgh could take Darnold, evaluate him for a season and try to re-sign him for 2022 if it likes what it sees.

FACES aims to excel in providing quality care, exceed expectations, and support seniors, their families, and the community to overcome barriers and promote a purpose driven life for seniors receiving supports.
Describe what FACES does. FACES provides day services to seniors with varying medical conditions to ensure optimal care, supervision, socialization, maintenance of skills, and new skills in a comfortable, home-like atmosphere. For some participants we may assist with activities of daily living, such as hygiene, meal preparation, and mobility. Other participants may need to experience increased socialization and exposure to creative environments and modalities to reinforce skills.
How did you get started in this business? Co-owners, Aundrea Scholem and Jennifer Madaj, met while working in parallel director roles at a local community organization that specializes in providing supports to adults with intellectual disabilities. As the demographics in programs, began having increasing numbers of seniors, we decided that there should be a better programming "fit" for senior adults, who may not have disabilities, and instead are dealing with issues and barriers related to aging. We also support local groups and organizations by providing volunteer support when we are available. We like to participate in food and supply drives, as well as walks and runs to promote education and awareness of diseases, disorders, and issues related to aging.
How did you both get started?
Aundrea Scholem is a nurse who has worked as the Professional Services Director and Case Management Supervisor for several years. Prior to these roles, Aundrea worked in various healthcare settings including hospice, geriatrics, home health, PICU, and surgery. Jennifer Madaj is a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist with a background developing and implementing therapeutic programming for various groups including children,adolescents and seniors in a variety of settings including mental and behavioral health, substance abuse treatment, rehabilitation, and community settings.
Describe your customers. Our customers are senior adults who require supports, supervision, or socialization during daytime, weekday hours. Our customers are also the families and caregivers of the senior receiving supports. We want to provide a multitude of services which provide support and respite to caregivers. The community is our final customer. We work with other organizations and professionals to provide adequate care planning and referral information as needed.
What outside factors impact the business environment you work in? We are applying to provide CHOICES benefits for adults who receive benefits under a medical plan including Tenncare/Medicare. The rate of adult day care equates to slightly more than $8/hr for adults who receive a full day of services. Currently we are waiving application, admission, supply, and assessment fees until 2016. We offer part time care for families who need supports and do not qualify for or have long term care insurance options. Funding changes at the state level could eventually have an impact on our census distribution (how many people we can take who have Medicare or Tenncare) as cuts are made to Tenncare.
What do you enjoy the most? We enjoy providing supports to adults in an environment that has not been available to most aging adults in Blount County. We enjoy the crafts and programing, but there is a real charm about speaking with the people we support, and realizing that they have been through most of the same things that we are going through. All of the participants have been able to give us amazing advice, often unsolicited, but we feel like we are gaining an infinite amount of knowledge from the lessons and experiences that the participants are willing to share with us.
Any additional comments? We do have slots open for full-time and part-time participants. If you don't know what adult day care is, or if you are curious to see how our program operates, we are happy to show you around. We are hosting a holiday open house on December 12th from 3:00pm- 7:00pm. We will be serving hot chocolate, cider, coffee, and desserts. We would love to have as many people from the community as possible, pop in, let us introduce ourselves, and take a look at our facility while it is all snazzed up for the holidays!! We are located at 1732 W Broadway Avenue. Our phone number is (865) 980-8023.

« Sanibel artist featured at F... Game show event returns to i...»
Sanibel Music Festival to offer world-class concerts in March
By TIFFANY REPECKI (trepecki@breezenewspapers.com) , Island Reporter, Captiva Current, Sanibel-Captiva Islander
An opportunity to experience the highest standard of classical music is just around the corner.
The 33rd annual Sanibel Music Festival will kick off on March 2 with the first of seven concerts planned throughout March. Held on Tuesdays and Saturdays, each of the performances will take place at 7:30 p.m. at Sanibel Congregational United Church of Christ, at 2050 Periwinkle Way, Sanibel.
Jana Stone, president of the board, explained that the festival began with a female musician and impresario. Violist Marilyn Lauriente would visit Sanibel during the month of March, but found it lacked something. So, she began inviting her friends and they would play concerts on the beach.
Jon Nakamatsu and Jon Manasse
Horszowski Piano Trio
Wu Han and Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center
The Handel and Haydn Society of Boston
New York Brass Arts Trio
"From there it started to grow," she said, noting that the festival incorporated in 1986.
For the past two decades or so, the performances have been held at the church.
"It's the perfect venue for it," Stone said. "The acoustics are wonderful."
Piano-clarinet duo Jon Nakamatsu and Jon Manasse will start off the series, followed by the Horszowski Piano Trio, Wu Han and Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, and The Handel and Haydn Society of Boston. The Opera Theater of Connecticut's "Singing Sondheim on Sanibel" and "Star-Crossed Lovers in Opera" are next, with the New York Brass Arts Trio wrapping it up.
The committee assigned with picking the acts aims for balance and variety.
"It is classical chamber music, but we try to vary the program with string quartets, brass trios, opera," she said of the top-notch entertainment. "We are also in the business of nurturing young artists."
"We like to mix those up-and-comers with the tried-and-true," Stone added.
She pointed out Nakamatsu and Manasse.
"They are just outstanding, they are phenomenal together," Stone said, adding that Nakamatsu has a strong following in Southwest Florida and has played in Naples, Sarasota and other communities.
She noted that Han is another popular figure in the field.
"The audiences love her, she's very flamboyant," Stone said. "That should be an outstanding program."
As for the Opera Theater of Connecticut's performances, the festival schedules one standard opera repertoire - "Star-Crossed Lovers in Opera" for this year - and one classical musical theater.
"Singing Sondheim on Sanibel" will focus on the body of work of Stephen Sondheim.
"To sing musical comedy or musical theater, you have to have the right kind of voice," she said.
Stone added that OTC provides young up-and-coming professionals with stage opportunities.
"These are people whose careers are just beginning, but they have the talent," she said.
The New York Brass Arts Trio, which is concluding this year's series, is a group Stone learned about while attending a chamber music festival in New York. She attends every year and picks up ideas.
"I was blown away by the group two years ago," Stone said.
"They got a standing screaming ovation," she added.
Comprised of trumpeter Joe Burgstaller, French hornist David Jolley and trombonist Haim Avitsur, the New York Brass Arts Trio are three, world-class virtuoso soloists - with a very wide musical range.
"They can do Bach like they can do Duke Ellington," Stone said.
"I know they are going to be a smash hit," she added.
Tickets are only $50 per concert.
"Our goal is to bring classical music to the public at affordable prices," Stone said.
The church seats about 350 people, and seating is first come, first served.
The community is encouraged to pick up their tickets and be awed.
"You're getting the best in the field," she said. "You will never be able to see these artists at these kind of ticket prices anywhere - and you will come away with such a wonderful feeling."
"We're really proud of the artists that we present," Stone added. "They really are world-class."
Tickets can be purchased at www.sanibelmusicfestival.org; they are also available at Bank of the Islands, at 1699 Periwinkle Way, Sanibel, but cash and check only accepted. Ticket order forms with envelopes are also available from Sanibel Captiva Community Bank, 2475 Library Way, Sanibel.
This year's concerts are sponsored by Gene and Lee Seidler and Janet and Joseph Davie, Patricia and Davis Thurber, Sue and Tom Pick, Jackie and Roy Sweeney Fund of the Greater Cincinnati Foundation and Gaye and Jim Pigott, the LAT Foundation and Lee Ann Tauck, and Estate of Christine Johnson.
The festival receives support from the Lee County Tourist Development Council.
For information, call 239-344-7025 or visit www.sanibelmusicfestival.org.
The 2019 Sanibel Music Festival lineup is as follows:
- March 2: Jon Nakamatsu and Jon Manasse
Comprised of two of America's most distinguished artists, the piano-clarinet duo established itself with a highly-regarded 2004 performance in Boston. Pianist Jon Nakamatsu first performed for the festival in 1998, after he won the gold medal in the tenth Cliburn International. Jon Manasse has served as principal clarinetist of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra under James Levine. The two have played some of the country's most prestigious series, including New York City's Mostly Mozart Festival and D.C.'s Dumbarton Oaks and National Gallery of Art. The artists serve as co-directors of the Cape Cod Chamber Music Festival. They have lengthy discographies and are dedicated to expanding the concert repertoire for the beautiful sound of their combined instruments.
Program to include Brahms' "Sonata for Clarinet and Piano in f minor, Op. 120 No. 1," Chopin's "Nocturne in F-sharp Major, Op. 15, No. 2" and "Scherzo No. 3 in c-sharp minor, Op. 39," L. Bernstein's "Sonata for Clarinet and Piano (1942)," G. Goodwin's "Four Views for Clarinet and Piano" and J. Novacek's "Full Stride Ahead from Four Rags for Two Jons."
- March 5: Horszowski Piano Trio
The New York Times hailed the young trio as "impressive, lithe, persuasive" when they played together for the first time. Two-time Grammy-nominated violinist Jesse Mills first performed with Raman Ramakrishnan, founding cellist of the prize-winning Daedalus Quartet, at the Kinhaven Music School over 20 years ago when they were children. In New York City, they met pianist Reiko
Alzawa, who had made her United States debuts at the Kennedy Center and Carnegie Hall. She was the last pupil of legendary pianist Mieczyslaw Horszowski at the Curtis Institute. In the four-year period following their debut performance, they were booked for almost 200 concerts in the states and tours in India and Japan. They will make their European debut this year. The trio is ensemble-in-residence at the Longy School of Music of Bard College.
Program to include Shostakovich's "Trio No. 2," Mendelssohn's "Trio No. 2" and Germaine Tailleferre's "Trio."
- March 9: Wu Han and Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center
Pianist Wu Han ranks among the most influential classical musicians in the world today. Leading an unusually multifaceted artistic career, she has risen to international prominence as a concert performer, artistic director, recording artist, educator and cultural entrepreneur. She tours extensively with her husband, Emerson Quartet founding member David Finkel, with whom she serves as co-artistic director of the Chamber Music of Lincoln Center and founding co-artistic director of Music@Menlo. She is the recipient of Musical America's Musician of the Year award. Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts recently appointed her artistic director for Chamber Music of the Barns. This year, she joins Chamber Music of Lincoln Center violinists Arnaud Sussman and Alexander Sitkovetsky, violist Matthew Lipman and cellist Nicholas Canellakis in a program titled "Russian Mastery."
Program to include Rachmaninov's "Trio elegiaque in G minor for Piano, Violin and Cello," Tchaikovsky's "Souvenir d'un lieu cher for Violin and Piano, Op. 42," Prokofiev's "Sonata in C Major for Two violins, Op. 56," and Taneyev's "Quintet in G minor for Piano, Two Violins, Viola and Cello, Op. 30."
- March 12: The Handel and Haydn Society of Boston
Founded in Boston in 1815, Handel and Haydn is among the oldest continuously performing classical music ensembles in the United States. It is a period-instrument orchestra, originally formed as a choral society, which has a fresh and vital take on Baroque and early Classical period music. Its orchestra and chorus delight over 50,000 listeners each year with a nine-concert subscription series at Symphony Hall and other leading venues, in addition to a robust program of events in museums, schools and community centers. Under the leadership of Artistic Director Harry Christophers, the ensemble embraces historically informed performance, bringing classical music to life with the same immediacy it had the day it was written. The concert will feature a rarely heard Baroque trumpet concerto.
Program to include Arcangelo Corelli's "Concerto Grosso in B-flat major, Op. 6, no 11," Guiseppe Torelli's "Sonata for Trumpet in D Major, G.1," Francesco Geminiani's "Concerto gross in e minor, Op. 3, No. 3," Antonio Vivaldi's "Concerto for violoncello, strings, and basso continuo in G, RV 413," Georg Phillip Telemann's "Overture - Suite 'Burlesque de Don Quixotte,' TWV 55:G10" and Johann Sebastian Bach's "Concerto for violin, strings, and basso continuo in a minor, BWV 1041."
- March 19: "Singing Sondheim on Sanibel"
Stephen Sondheim is described by Frank Rich of the New York Times as "the greatest and perhaps best-known artist in American Music Theater." Celebrate Sondheim's amazing career with Opera Theater of Connecticut and a group of first-rate professional singers through an exciting selection of pieces from his acclaimed shows, including "Sweeney Todd," "Follies," "Into the Woods," "A Little Night Music," "Merrily We Roll Along" and "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum." Artistic Director Alan Mann will add his unique and informative comments from the stage.
- March 23: "Star-Crossed Lovers in Opera"
The truly thrilling characters in the world of opera are the ill-fated star-crossed lovers whose lives and loves are challenged by insurmountable obstacles. It makes for great drama and music for Puccini's Mimi and Rodolfo, Gounod's Romeo and Juliet, Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor and Edgardo, Verdi's Violetta and Alfredo, and, happily, for the would-be lovers in "The Elixir of Love" and "The Merry Widow." Presented by the Opera Theater of Connecticut, these and more will be performed by six professional opera singers in an evening of best-known and best-loved arias and ensembles, all with projected supertitles. Alan Mann, noted opera historian, will add informative narration.
- March 26: New York Brass Arts Trio
Three world-class virtuoso soloists have come together to revolutionize the brass trio and are being hailed as the first brass group ever to play with the sensitivity and musicality of a string quartet. Trumpeter Joe Burgstaller, French hornist David Jolley and trombonist Haim Avitsur all bring great experience to the table. Burgstaller is a former featured trumpeter and arranger with the legendary Canadian Brass, has performed with many notable orchestras and has recording credentials that include solo CDs, three Top-10 Billboard hits and a Top-50 Jazz Radio hit. Jolley is the pre-eminent horn soloist of his generation, performing as a soloist with major orchestras, collaborating with Guarneri, Orion and American string quartets, and is a founding member of the Grammy-winning Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. Avitsur is the only trombonist named a 2005 and 2007 emerging artist by Symphony Magazine and has premiered over 80 compositions.
Program to include Johann Sebastian Bach (arr. Jolley)'s "Three Sinfonias," Ludwig van Beethoven (arr. Avitsur)'s "Trio in C Major, Op. 87," Richard Strauss (arr. Jolley)'s "Till Eulenspiegel," Igor Stravinsky (arr. Jolley)'s "Selection from Pulcinella Suite," Bela Bartok's "Romanian Folk Dances," Chick Corea (b.1941) (Arr. Burgstaller)'s "Three Children's Songs," George Gershwin's "Selections from Porgy and Bess" and Astor Piazzola (arr. Burgstaller)'s "Libertango."

Q: Converting invalid json to json or javascript object I have below string which doesn't have quotes around keys and values. How can I convert it to json?
"{1000:{FUEL LINE: NR, FUEL LEVEL: I, THROTTLE OPERATION: NR, CHOKE OPERATION: NR, AIR CLEANER: NR, CRANKCASE BREATHER:
NR , SPARK PLUG: NR, VALVE CLEARANCE: I, ENGINE OIL: R, ENGINE OIL STRAINER SCREEN: C, SUSPENSION: I, NUTS, BOLTS FASTENERS: I, WHEEL/TYRES: I, STEERING HEAD BEARINGS: NR}
}"

I tried below code but not working.
JSON.parse(JSON.string(data))['100']
It's not working giving me 100th element, still treating it as string.

A: Your JSON has some major issues - for example:

SUSPENSION: NR, NUTS, BOLTS FASTENERS: I, WHEEL/TYRES: NR, STEERING
  HEAD BEARINGS: I

Where does the key / value start and end?
I think it should be something like this:

SUSPENSION: [NR, NUTS, BOLTS], FASTENERS: I, WHEEL/TYRES: [NR, STEERING,
  HEAD], BEARINGS: I

When you repaired the String logically you can add the missing ' with something like:
data.replace(/[\w\d]+/gi, "'$&'")
But in your case I think this regex would do a better job:
data.replace(/((\w|\d|\/)+[\s\w\d\/]*)+/gi, "'$&'")
In your current data string it would result in:
    "{'1000':{'FUEL LINE': 'NR', 'FUEL LEVEL': 'I', 'THROTTLE OPERATION': 'NR', 'CHOKE OPERATION': 'NR', 'AIR CLEANER': 'NR', 'CRANKCASE BREATHER':'NR ', 'SPARK PLUG': 'NR', 'VALVE CLEARANCE': 'I', 'ENGINE OIL': 'R', 'ENGINE OIL STRAINER SCREEN': 'C', 'ENGINE IDLE SPEED': 'I',

A: *

*You first need to manage the errors i.e. SUSPENSION: NR, NUTS, BOLTS FASTENERS: I. (You need to decide what the correct format is, I've just removed it altogether).

*Then you need to add quotes before and after every one of these characters ({ : ,) that is followed by a letter or number.

*Finally remove the new lines.

*The text is now ready for parsing.

This material is composed of a substratum of reticulated foam to which is grafted a unique hydrogel polymer.
This material is composed of a substratum of reticulated foam to which is grafted a unique hydrogel polymer. Based on the science of hydrophilic polyurethane (HPUR), the composite combines the unique properties of HPUR on a reticulate polyurethane scaffold. The result is a low-pressure drop, high internal surface area, and high void volume architecture with a hydrophilic, chemically active surface. This surface can be a reservoir for active ingredients, a biocompatible surface for cell growth, or a convenient system for the immobilization of active molecules, including enzymes.
This portfolio discloses a material relevant to a variety of technology areas, including advanced medical systems, environmental remediation, and consumer products. While the material as described has many applications, especially in household and personal care products, the true value of the material is in the potential to modify the hydrophilic surface, chemically and physically, including applications for advancements in medical systems and environmental remediation.
Advanced Medical Systems – Pharmaceutical and biotech companies spend approximately $60 billion annually on R&D. Each new drug costs close to $1 billion to develop and market. Part of the high cost is due to the fact that 50-60% of drugs that pass preclinical testing fail in humans. The reason for this is human metabolism and toxicity are difficult to predictin the lab. Traditionally, test methods culture liver cells on two-dimensional surfaces. In such environments, the cells are forced to adopt unnatural flattened morphologies. This is thought to result in false positives in 40-50% of tests.
There is a strong demand for new cell culture platforms that allow cells to grow more naturally. It is widely acknowledged that three-dimensional cell growth is likely to more accurately reflect the natural tissue environments.
The patent portfolio describes a composite material that shows promise as such a material. It is composed of an open-cell foam architecture to which is grafted a biocompatible hydrogel surface. The result is a flow-through device with a coating appropriate for cell growth. Additionally, cell attachment molecules can conveniently be bonded to the hydrogel surface.
Environmental Remediation – The use of bacteria to treat organic pollutants is well documented. The same properties that make it attractive as a substratum for liver cells make it ideal for colonization by waste water degrading bacteria and other remediation organisms. The hydrogel surface is an excellent environment for colonization by bacteria, and the open architecture provides for superior flow-through properties, high surface area, and high void volume, all desirable properties for an engineering material.
Additionally, the composite has the ability to extract polar organic pollutants from water and air. Still further, the material is conveniently reactive with enzymes for the treatment of difficult pollutants.
The technology was developed as an improvement of a commercial polyurethane.
The material has certain advantages of current materials used for cell propagation for medical and environmental remediation.
The enhanced properties give it properties unmatched by the original polyurethane. Specifically the open architecture increases surface area and mass transport properties of the polymer foam.
This is the residual class for: 1. Stock material in the form of a structurally defined web, sheet, rod, strand, fiber, filament, cell, flake, particle not provided elsewhere. 2. Stock material in the form of a web, sheet, mass or layer which consists of or contains a structurally defined constituent or element. 3. A nonstructural laminate defined merely in terms of the composition of one or more layers. 4. An article of manufacture or an intermediate-article not provided for elsewhere. 5. A process for applying an impregnating material to a naturally solid product such as a wood beam, a sheet of leather or a stone, or for applying a coating to a base, and which process includes no significant method step.
This is the generic class for: A. applying or obtaining a coating on a surface. The coating may be hard or soft, permanent or transitory, supplied solely by extraneous materials or supplied wholly or in part by the base material. B. impregnating a base by causing a coating material to extend or penetrate into the base material, or into the interstices of a porous, cellular or foraminous material. C. taking preparatory treatments of the base material, subsequent treatments of the coated base material and other ancillary noncoating operations claimed, per se, processes limited to etching for making a base more compatible with, or adherent to, the coating wherein the base is the substrate (work) onto which a coating is applied are included.
