This good fortune may not last however. In autumn 2017 the south-west state of Baden-Württemberg reintroduced tuition fees for non-EU students, and it's possible other states will follow suit in the coming years. Non-EU students in Baden-Württemberg must now pay tuition fees of €3,000 (~US$3,500) per year, while those gaining a second degree pay a reduced fee of €1,300 (~US$1,600) per year.
While many students can study in Germany for free, living expenses are unavoidable. The cost of living in Germany is more expensive in some areas than others – Munich, for example, is considered the most expensive German city to live in, with living costs averaging about €12,000 (~US$13,900) per year. By comparison, the average annual living costs in Germany are around €10,200 (~US$11,800).
Rent will be your largest monthly expense, though this is cheaper if you live in a shared flat (average rent of €280/~US$340 per month) or a student hall of residence (€234/~US$290 per month).
To find living expenses for specific cities in Germany (and compare them to the average costs in your home city) Numbeo is a useful tool.
You won't need a visa to study in Germany if you're an EU national or citizen of Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland. Otherwise, expect to pay €60 (~US$74) for your student visa, but there are also fee reductions or waivers for Schengen visas. In order to fulfill the visa requirements, you will need to show proof you have, or have access to, around €8,700 (~US$10,680) per year or €725 (~US$890) per month to cover your living costs.
For more information on getting a German student visa, see this article.
You will also need health insurance as a pre-condition of registering at a German university. If you're a resident of a country within the EU or EEA, there should be a social security agreement between your country and Germany. This means that if you have public health insurance, you should be covered in Germany as well (full list here). If your health insurance isn't valid in Germany, expect to pay around €80 (~US$97) per month to cover this.
Although you can study for free at public German universities as an undergraduate, there is a charge per semester for enrolment, confirmation and administration. This is typically no more than €250 (~US$290) per semester, but varies depending on the university.
There may be an additional charge to purchase a "Semesterticket", which covers public transport expenses for six months – the price varies depending upon which Semesterticket option you choose. If you exceed the standard period of study by more than four semesters, you may also face a long-term fee charge, which could be as much as €500 (~US$540) per semester.
Most universities in Germany are public. Private institutions are usually dependent on tuition fees for their funding (though some also receive support from foundations), and set their own fees, which can be anything up to and beyond €20,000 a year (~US$24,400).
The Federal Student Financial Aid Program (BAföG: Bundesausbildungsförderungsgesetz) can be used by both German nationals and EU students, as well as some foreigners under select conditions. Generally, this aid is for those under 30 years old (under 35 if you're studying for a master's degree), but exceptions can be made depending on circumstance. The BAföG is usually split in two, with 50% taking the form of a state grant and the other half being an interest-free loan that must be paid back in instalments when the maximum period of assistance expires.
Master's degrees at German universities are usually free if they are classed as "consecutive" – i.e. following directly on from a related bachelor's degree gained in Germany. Again, there is a small charge per semester for enrolment, confirmation and administration, plus a Semesterticket. Tuition fees for "non-consecutive" master's degrees, for those who have gained their bachelor's degree elsewhere in the world, vary between universities and may be around €20,000 (~US$24,400) per year at public institutions and up to €30,000 (~US$36,600) at private German universities.
For example, Germany's top-ranked institution, the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg, lists fees for non-consecutive master's degrees ranging from €2,500 (US$3,050) per semester for a Master of Arts in American Studies up to €5,000 (US$6,100) per semester for a Master of Medical Education (MME).
At PhD level, tuition is once again free at all universities in Germany – for the first six semesters at least. As at all levels of study, PhD students are also required to make a semester contribution of no more than €250 or so for administration and other costs. You can find out more about studying a PhD in Germany here.
The German Academic Exchange Service, otherwise known as the DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst), provides support for German and international students to gain funding to live and study in Germany for free or at a more affordable cost.
DAAD scholarships to study in Germany are offered to German and international students of all levels, as well as academics and researchers. To find relevant scholarships to study in Germany, you can search based on keywords, study level, country of origin and subject.
Another useful resource is the Federal Ministry of Education and Research or BMBF (Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung), which hosts a site dedicated to providing information on scholarships to study in Germany.
You can also check out our own listing of Scholarships to Study in Germany, which is updated regularly.
Figures contained in this article are averages. The amount you pay will fluctuate depending on the length of your program, your level of study, the German state (Länder) you live in and whether your university is private or public.

England, Daily Report
Leaving England
Friday, 10-07-2015 — Sunday, 12-07-2015.
Day 324—Day 326.
Upon departing Glasgow, we pointed the car south and headed toward Newcastle-upon-Tyne. We'd heard from another traveling family about Game On 2.0, an exhibit at Newcastle's Life Science Centre all about video games.
Newcastle's Life Science Center
Game On 2.0
Upon arriving, we picked up a family pass for £31.50, which allowed us to play as many video games as we wanted for as long as we wanted, all for about $10 USD a person. Remembering how fast I'd burn through quarters in the arcades of my youth, that seemed like a pretty good deal.
The exhibit was pretty cool. It started with Pong (of course), showcased some early console games, and featured a whole mess of playable games from numerous platforms like Atari, PlayStation, Dreamcast, Xbox, and Nintendo 64. If you could think of a game, it's a good bet they had it on display. The only one I'd hoped to find was Time Pilot (one of my all time favorites), but it was not in the collection, sadly. But they did have a copy of Tempest (another old favorite) you could play on the Atari Jaguar (a console I'd never heard of). I also played way too much Defender, a game I was never good when I was a kid. Turns out I'm no good as an adult, either.
Collection of cabinet games at Game On 2.0
There were very few people at the exhibit, which allowed us to play pretty much anything we wanted without waiting. So, naturally, we spent a lot of time here, but even video games get boring eventually.
After we'd finished playing around, we hit the road to London. Traffic got pretty gridlocked for a good long wile, and once we were through there wasn't enough time for us to get all the way back to London at a reasonable hour. So we split the difference and spent an uneventful night in Leicester.
English Gridlock
Our Last Night in London
Back in London, we once again enjoyed the hospitality of our friends Sam and Fran. They live near Heathrow, so they offered us to stay with them for the night. We definitely appreciated the convenience of not having to find a (probably expensive) hotel room near the airport, and it was good to spend a little more time with our friends before we left England. It was an enjoyable evening, except for one wrinkle ...
While the adults were enjoying conversation and making dinner, the kids had gone outside to play ... until Frankie came inside holding her wrist with a pained look on her face. She'd slipped on a skateboard and the likelihood of a broken wrist seemed high. So, on our last full day in England, we got to experience the National Health Service at St. Mary's NHS Treatment Centre. They took x-rays, but it was too early to determine if there was a fracture. So for the rest of the trip, Frankie had to keep her arm wrapped in a splint.
After that, the rest of the night was rather mild. The next day, our flight out of England didn't leave until later in the evening, so we had a leisurely morning taking care of a few last-minute things (like getting Persephone a good wash) before heading to Heathrow.
Our last day with Persephone
We had to return the car before we could head to the airport. We were a little concerned that no one was in the office when we arrived to drop the car off. We'd been waiting for some time and were starting to get worried about time—we still had to clear customs and immigration—when an employee showed up.
If you remember, I'd scraped up the side of the car in Italy while extracting her from a very tiny parking structure. I worried about it quite a bit during our European tour, but it turned out to be a non-issue, which was a big relief.
Handing the car over was hassle-free—the gent even gave us a ride to the airport. If you're going to be spending any length of time in Europe, look into Auto France's Open Europe Program. It worked really well for us.
Once we went through the process of officially exiting England, we had enough time for one last English meal in the airport lounge before we took off for Iceland.

Watford reveal one player and two staff tested positive for coronavirus | Football
Watford have said one of their players and two staff members tested positive for coronavirus. The trio are among six individuals across three Premier League clubs to have tested positive for Covid-19, with the Burnley assistant manager Ian Woan the only person identified as having done so.
Watford have been one of the most outspoken clubs regarding plans to restart the Premier League in June. The squad are due return to training on Wednesday but the captain, Troy Deeney, has said he will not participate and the manager, Nigel Pearson, has raised concerns about a coronavirus-related death in the league.
Watford said all three club members would isolate for seven days before being tested again, in line with Premier League guidelines.
This week Deeney said he had raised questions at a meeting involving the league and captains and had not been satisfied it was safe to train. "We're due back in this week; I've said I'm not going," he told Eddie Hearn and Tony Bellew on their Talk the Talk YouTube show. "Within the meeting I asked very simple questions. For Black, Asian and mixed ethnicities they are four times more likely to get the illness and twice as likely to have long lasting illness. Is there any additional screening? Heart stuff, to see if anyone has a problem?
"I feel that should be addressed. I can't get a haircut until mid-July but I can go and get in a box with 19 people and jump for a header? I don't know how that works. No one could answer the questions – not because they didn't want to, because they didn't have the information. I just said: 'If you don't know the information, why would I put myself at risk?'"
Pearson told the Times in an article published last Saturday: "God forbid we have a fatality. People are closing their eyes to the threat. Yes, we would like to restart it but it's got to be safe. We should be cautious. To ignore possibilities is foolhardy. It's about safeguarding people's health."
Premier League protocols have been drawn up in consultation with the government and health officials. Covid-19 tests were conducted on 748 players and staff at 19 clubs on Sunday and Monday and the 20th club completed testing on Tuesday; their figures will be included in the results from a second round of testing, due to be published on Saturday.
Burnley said of Woan: "Ian is asymptomatic and is currently safe and well at home. He will remain in close communication with club personnel regarding his re-engagement in training once he is clear of the virus."
Premier League clubs were allowed to resume training, on a physically distanced basis, on Tuesday.

This scene, in which the Transformer "Bumblebee" protects Sam and Mikaela near a bridge, was filmed in the dry bed of the Los Angeles River, below the Cesar Chavez Avenue bridge. (In the photo above, the camera is looking northeast.)
One Autobot hides beneath the bridge (while helicopters search for them), while Sam's "car" races along the side of the river bed. When the hiding robot drops the kids, Bumblebee catches them, but is then captured by the military.
The bridge is on the northeast side of downtown Los Angeles, just east of Union Station. The address would be approximately 875 E. Cesar Chavez Avenue. *
Sam & Mikaela are then taken into custody and brought to a secret government lab
beneath a dam, where they have hidden a frozen Transformer (which later escapes).
Now, given all the L.A. locations, you might think that this dam was a local one, perhaps
the Hansen Dam (that was seen in "Charlie's Angels 2"). But it's not.
This is the Hoover Dam, on Lake Mead, about 25 miles southeast outside of Las Vegas, Nevada.
When the evil Transformer ("Megatron") escapes from the dam, a Transformer chase / battle ensues between the evil Decepticons and the good Autobots.
Part of that chase takes place on a freeway, as the robots "roller skate" down the freeway and rip a bus in two (resulting in a fiery explosion).
These freeway fight scenes were shot mainly in San Bernardino County, on an empty stretch of the Foothill (210) Freeway, which was still under construction when the movie was made. These scenes were shot at the east end of the freeway, in Rialto & Fontana, between Sierra Avenue (on the west) and Linden Avenue (on the east).
(That's about 50 miles east/northeast of downtown L.A.)
But when we see the freeway interchange below, suddenly we're not in San Bernardino County any more.
Instead, they jumped 60 miles away, to the interchange of the Harbor (110) Freeway & the Century (105) Freeway, in the Athens / Willowbrook area of south L.A.
(In the photo above, the camera is looking north, up the Harbor Freeway.)

Work environments of the future offer numerous applications of intentional forgetting (IF) with many benefits for organizations, teams, and individuals. In order to manage increasing amounts of information, IF can be applied as a method to improve performance of work systems or to extend cognitive capacities of humans and/or technical systems. Different technology aided approaches have been suggested for assisting IF, such as: (1) suppressing of irrelevant or distressful information (e.g., by hiding or deleting information), (2) delegating or rearranging information, roles, or tasks to a digital system, or (3) by systematic placement of retrieval cues or triggers to generate or replace behavior. The implementation of IF can thus differ substantially between work areas or systems.
From the perspective of industrial and organizational psychology, it can be argued that IF systems should be designed based on the needs of the human user. Depending on their unique properties, technological systems have been shown to have an impact on human behavior, affective reactions towards a system, and the users' willingness to use the technology (Venkatesh & Bala, 2008). The aim of the present research program is to classify and compare characteristics of different IF systems. Additionally, psychological effects on users' behavior, experience, and affective reactions will be studied.
For that purpose, the IF systems of six psychological research groups within the research network of the DFG SPP 1921, representing these three approaches, are compared: IF systems focussing on (1) suppressing irrelevant information (Managed forgetting, Frings et al.; Dare2Del, Niessen et al.), (2) delegating/rearranging information or tasks (AdaptPRO, Ellwart et a.; Getrost Vergessen, Hertel et al.), and (3) placement of retrieval cues or triggers (Intentional Forgetting, Routines & Retrieval Cues, Kluge et al.; iVAA, Sonnentag et al.). On a conceptual level, we first examine the characteristics in which the IF systems differ (research question 1). In future experimental studies a research design is applied across the six research projects, to study and compare the systems' effects on psychological experiences and behavior (research question 2). The conceptual approach as well as the planned experiment will be part of this presentation.
Theoretical framework: IF systems are compared and connected to theoretical models of technology acceptance (TAM; Venkatesh & Bala, 2008). Key characteristics are (1) application level of the system (e.g., team vs. individual), (2) level of user control over the system, as well as (3) the system functioning as a facilitator of forgetting (systematic placement of cues) or as an inhibitor of certain behaviors (e.g., by hiding or deleting information). Based on the TAM it is assumed that these characteristics affect individuals' acceptance of the IF system as well as their willingness to work with it.
Procedure & Design: Each research group is conducting experimental applications of IF systems differing in the described characteristics. Following the initial experiment (lasting 60-120 mins), participants receive a vignette describing the situation of being in a future work environment using the IF system participants have worked with in the initial experiment. Participants are asked to rate their behavioral and affective reactions, their trust in the system, as well as their willingness to use the system. Comparing behavioral and affective reactions across different IF settings allows us to evaluate system characteristics leading to different user reactions.
Value: With growing amounts of information processing requirements at work, IF systems become increasingly important. However, the systems can differ substantially in their characteristics. In order to gain a better understanding of how IF systems impact human behavior and reactions, it is necessary to (1) differentiate between IF system characteristics and (2) gain an understanding of how these characteristics have an impact on users.


I saw that this said safe for sensitive skin on it so I was ready to try this moisturizer out and I am so glad I did! I love the colours of the little foil package which is always something that catches my attention first.
The smell was awesome. It is weird for me because I don't like the smell of coconut but I did like the smell of this. It isn't very strong but it is noticeable. A little goes a long way with this product and as you can tell from the picture I totally squeezed out too much but whatever. I just spread it onto my neck and my hands too.
My skin felt so nice after using this and I'm thinking about buying the full sized version. I do want to try it one more time to make sure it wasn't a fluke though. I'm very careful with what I put on my face because there are some products that cause really bad reactions.
Another good thing about this product is that it is cruelty free! This is the first product that I have used from First Aid Beauty and I can't wait to try out more from them!
This just might be my Holy Grail moisture, what are yours?

The comedy production powerhouse team Art & Industry (Shannon Hartman and Michelle Caputo) was hired to create a stand-up show that would not only give John the vehicle he deserved, but also serve as a showcase for John's favorite up-and-coming young comedians. In addition to Mr. Oliver, the show has featured popular comics such as Hari Kondabolu, Marc Maron, Iliza Shlesinger, Hannibal Buress and Wyatt Cenac, among many others. Three seasons later, the viewers still can't get enough.
The show was shot before a live audience at NYU's very well-equipped Skirball Auditorium, in the shadow of New York's Washington Square Park.

2016 was a year to remember for the men from the Ministry.
We launched our most successful independent product yet – Blood Eagle, In Her Majesty's Name and Daishō continued to sell well and, we attended more shows than ever before.
We unified the blogs into this common location. We also still have an active presence on several popular for a including the dedicated IHMN board on Lead Adventures and, the Wargames Website.
Articles on IHMN and Blood Eagle appeared in various magazines including Wargames, Soldiers and Strategy (thanks Guy) and Wargames Illustrated (thanks Wayne).
The Facebook pages continued to grow; IHMN has 1,293 members; Blood Eagle 884, and; Daishō 482. Each of them have grown into courteous and helpful communities in their own rights, and we are proud of how members have behaved on them. Well done one and all!
At Salute, we shall launch the first supplement for IHMN for three years, the long-awaited Gothic. We shall bring you more information on this as we get closer to the launch.
We shall hopefully be attending even more shows. We are just awaiting for confirmations from a few before producing a list for you. There shall be a new board just for Gothic to supplement Bill Harrington's fantastic Gothic cemetery – we are serialising its production on this blog. And, there may also be a surprise new board for Blood Eagle – more news when this is ready.
We will begin work on the next book – watch this space for news of that (and comment below if you have any ideas you would like to see fulfilled).
Once our friendly local retailer is ready we are going to release PDF copies of Blood Eagle and Daishō for you to use on your pads and PCs. The beautiful hard copies shall still be available from North Star Miniatures and all good retailers.
For those who need to know these things: - I'll never see 50 again. - I'm tall enough to see well in crowds and fat enough to leave a wake. - I'm well married to a woman with twice my smarts, three delightful and challenging children (er-hem), and one cat overlord. - I am Welsh. - I have to work for a living, but do nothing that makes me perspire.

Today, major manufacturers of automobiles began to make cars, change tires that need only two times per year: winter to summer and vice versa – it is easy to patch a puncture with special shawl or sealant. 99% motorists in that case just change the wheel. As if there were not, but without the jack going. when and what will happen to the wheel, unaware of any motorist. So always have a jack and the "spare tire" is a must. But jack jack – are different. And one turns the wheel assembly in the devil's torments, the other can be useful in an unpredictable situation.
take a look at what are the jacks, which one and how to use them properly. On the principle of actuation of the hoisting mechanism, they are divided into mechanical and hydraulic. Mechanical jacks – they all mans car coming off the conveyor car factories. Which, in turn, divided into parallelogram lever and or folding. Lever is now almost not produced or sold, and sold a great variety of folding. they are used to service the small vehicles, whose gross weight does not more than two tons. A relatively small load is compensated by the simplicity, small size and reliability.
For larger vehicles used hydraulic jacks. They are much stronger, however, and much more influential. Hydraulic jacks are also divided into two types – and telescopic lever or movable. The role of the first lifting mechanism is hydraulic piston mechanism directly, the other hydraulic cylinder pushes for lifting the lever, which in turn raises the car.
The new line consists of three systems – Lockus F1, Lockus F2 and Lockus F3, differing in the way of management and functional richness. Lockus alarm installed on the Ford Focus cars and various configurations can significantly increase possible full-time security equipment. Lockus F1 car alarm is recommended for installation in cars Ford, not equipped with full-time security package. Management system is four-button keyfob with a dynamic coded control signals. Car alarm Lockus F2 is recommended for installation in cars Ford Focus, equipped with the function of remote control central locking system (these machines are equipped with safety package 1, 4, or Number 5). Arming and Disarming is regular remote control car Ford (the system automatically determines when locking and unlocking central locking system, and thus will enable or disable the protection). The most powerful and functionally rich system in the new line is Lockus F3. This system is aimed at car owners the highest requirements for anti-theft equipment.
It is not just car alarm and a burglar and anti-theft complex. In fact, Lockus F3 combines the immobilizer and slave-signaling, and includes the most modern technologies used in the elite anti-theft systems, Black Bug. Lockus F3 is recommended for installation in cars Ford Focus, equipped with remote control function of the central locking. Enabling and disabling alarms are also carried out with the regular remote central locking. High level of protection against theft provides remotely controlled relay HOOK-UP. Number installed in the vehicle anti-theft devices are not restricted. Lockus F3 also provides protection against seizure, and in the critical situation of ownership does not require any action to lock the engine. In addition, Lockus F3 is protected from electronic intrusion of the second generation technology, DID, and the backup L-channel provides confident identification tag, even the presence of noise in the air.
The newest car alarms car full control and provide an electronic lock on the engine. Function provides confirmation disarm, which can insure owner in case of theft or full-time remote key fob Ford signaling (by the owner of the regime can be switched off only after clicking on a secret button and the electronic identification tags, or both). For implementation of additional service functions in the car alarm has two programmable Lockus timer channel that can be included on a pre-programmed events, and with the key fob (or by phone at system is connected Reef GSM). 'Altonika' supplies car alarms to a central warehouse Lockus Ford Motor Company with a programmed set of optimal settings that will suit completely most of the cars. If there need to add or disable any features and modes, the default settings can be quickly changed on the computer. Installation of the required minimum intervention in the wiring of the car, as well as eliminates the need to run additional wires. In the car alarm Lockus use the most modern element base, which has high reliability, operating in extended temperature range and resistant to external influences. Car alarm Lockus fully comply with process standards of Ford.

NASA Is Planning the First-Ever Interstellar Mission
NASA wants to send a probe to an exoplanet to mark the 100th anniversary of Apollo 11. However, a brand new means of propulsion — and other advanced technologies — will be necessary if this project is to come to pass.
100 YEARS ON
NASA is in the earliest stages of planning an exoplanet expedition, set to mark the 100th anniversary of its first crewed Moon landing, Apollo 11. A small team based at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) hopes to send a spacecraft to a distant planet in search of life.
In 2016, a funding bill was passed that called upon NASA to investigate methods of interstellar travel that could reach at least 10 percent of the speed of light by 2069. It also requested a mission to Alpha Centauri, the closest star system to our own.
A probe is set to be sent to the chosen exoplanet to determine whether or not life is present. A few years after its launch, NASA will send a large telescope into deep space, which will use gravitational lensing to offer a full view of the exoplanet.
At present, there's some debate as to whether Alpha Centauri or another system will be selected, as there are several candidates being considered. Of course, there are some big questions to be answered before this mission becomes a reality.
The basic concept for the 2069 exoplanet expedition was presented by JPL's Anthony Freeman at the 2017 American Geophysical Union conference. He later described its current status as "nebulous" in an interview with New Scientist.
"We don't know whether the mission objectives will be stable," Freeman told Futurism via email. "We would find out a lot while the spacecraft is en route, which will change the questions that we need to answer before it arrives at its destination. All this makes it hard to pin down exactly what the mission concept should look like – hence my comment that it is nebulous."

One of the biggest challenges is developing a spacecraft that's capable of reaching speeds that are even a fraction of light speed. Freeman questions whether it will even be possible to build a craft that can survive in the interstellar medium while travelling at these speeds, as particle impacts could prove to be a major problem.
Antimatter-matter collisions, nuclear propulsion, and laser-powered light sails are all being considered as technologies that could potentially help a craft reach the speeds that are required. It still remains to be seen whether any of these options will prove to be feasible, but at present NASA believes that the sails are the most promising.
Even if the craft can travel fast enough to make the journey to another system, the trip would likely take centuries. The process of solely decelerating the vehicle enough to make a safe entry into the exoplanet's orbit is expected to add decades onto the overall travel time.
PREREQUISITE TECHNOLOGIES
An appropriately speedy propulsion method is crucial to this mission, but there are various other technologies that need to be put in place as well.
Freeman lists optical communication, reconfigurable spacecraft, compact space-qualified 3D printing capabilities, genomic programming, and artificial intelligence as some of prerequisites for the 2069 mission. A journey to an exoplanet is certainly ambitious, and the amount of research and development required to facilitate such a voyage reflects that.
Of course, the rewards could potentially be great. Proof of alien life is just one goal. The mission would also allow for a greater knowledge of the exoplanet in question, opportunities to study matter and radiation encountered en-route, and tests of the theory of relativity.
It will be no small feat to develop the propulsion technology necessary to get this project off the ground, and the practicalities of carrying out a mission that will last decades upon decades offer up their own challenges. However, it's the scope of this project that makes it so alluring. Aiming for 2069, an anniversary that Freeman describes as still having a "certain resonance" for NASA's current crop of scientists and engineers, ties this proposal to the sense of ambition that allowed for humankind's prior accomplishments in stretching out into the stars.

The Most Detailed Map Of The Universe Is Here
Oumuamua First alien object to visit our solar system is wrapped in strange organic coat

To us, the Sun alone seems perfectly normal, but our solar system is actually a strange exception.
Most stars in the Milky Way galaxy have at least one companion star. In a system 1,800 light-years away, astronomers have finally confirmed the existence of a gas giant planet orbiting stars in a triple star system.
Called KOI-5, the system is located in the constellation Cygnus, and the exoplanet was confirmed ten years after it was first detected by the Kepler space telescope.
In fact, the planet – now known as KOI-5Ab – was discovered by Kepler when it began operations back in 2009.
"KOI-5Ab was dropped because it was difficult and we had thousands of other candidates," astronomer David Siardi of NASA's Exoplanet Science Institute said.
"There were lighter dives than the KOI-5Ab, and every day we learned something new from Kepler, so the KOI-5 was almost forgotten."
Exoplanet hunters tend to avoid the complexities of multi-star systems; of the more than 4,300 exoplanets confirmed to date, less than 10 percent are multi-star systems, although such systems dominate the galaxy. As a result, little is known about the properties of exoplanets in multi-star systems compared to those orbiting a lone star.
After Kepler's discovery, Chardy and other astronomers used ground-based telescopes such as the Palomar Observatory, Keck Observatory, and the Gemini North Telescope to study the system. By 2014, they had identified two companion stars, KOI-5B and KOI-5C.
Scientists were able to establish that the planet KOI-5Ab, is a gas giant that is about half the mass of Saturn and 7 times the size of Earth, and is in a very close five-day orbit around KOI-5A. KOI-5A and KOI-5B, both of roughly the same mass as the Sun, form a relatively close binary system with an orbital period of about 30 years.
A third star, KOI-5C, orbits the binary system at a much greater distance, with a period of about 400 years – slightly longer than Pluto's 248-year orbit.
"By studying this system in more detail, perhaps we can understand how planets are created in the universe."
The discovery was announced at the 237th meeting of the American Astronomical Society.

Science can be compared to an artist painting what he has never seen, or to a writer describing other people's travels: objects that he has never seen, places where he has never been. Sometimes such scientific "arts" turn out to be beautiful and interesting, but most of them will forever remain only theories, because they are beyond human capabilities.
In fact, science has the right only to speculate: how our universe appeared, how old it is, how many stars and other objects it contains.
Universe model
How many stars are there in the sky?
With an unarmed eye, a person can see about nine thousand stars in the sky in one cloudless and moonless night. And armed with binoculars or a telescope, much more – up to several million. However, this is much less than their true number in the universe. Indeed, only in our one galaxy (the Milky Way) there are about 400 billion stars. The exact amount, of course, is not known to science. And the visible universe contains about 170 billion galaxies.
It is worth clarifying that scientists can see the universe 46 billion light years deep in all directions. And the visible (observable) universe includes the space accessible to our eyes from the moment of the Big Explosion. In other words, only this (accessible to human perception) space science refers to our universe. Science does not consider everything that follows.
It is believed that there are supposedly a ceptillion (10 to 24 degrees) stars in our universe. These are theoretical calculations based on the approximate size and age of the universe. The origin of the universe is explained by the Big Bang theory. This is why the universe is constantly expanding and the more time passes, the more complex the universe and its components become.
It is not entirely correct to consider and perceive this scientific theory "head-on". Scientists always claim that that explosion was not exactly an explosion, and the point that exploded was not the only one. After all, it was everywhere, because space did not exist then. And in general – everything happened quite differently from what is described in the Big Bang theory, but all other descriptions of the origin of the universe are even more incredible and inaccurate.
Separate but interconnected
That which is beyond the reach of human perception is usually discarded by science, or recognized as non-existent. Recognizing one thing, science does not want to recognize the existence of the other, although everything in our world is interconnected and is not able to exist separately – by itself.
Each object of the universe is a part of it much more than an independent, separate object.
Any person, like any material object of our world, consists of components: organs, cells, molecules, atoms. And each of its constituent parts can represent the whole world. Separate, and at the same time connected with all the others.
However, science, as a rule, perceives all the components of the universe – people, animals, plants, objects, the Earth, the Sun, other planets and stars – as separate subjects, thereby limiting itself.
Even what is considered the visible universe, one of the atoms of which could be called our solar system, is not subject to the boundaries of human perception. But perhaps the atom is an exaggeration, and our solar system is not even an atom, but one of its elements!
How, being so far from the truth, can one reason about something with the degree of probability with which science tries to reason about the origin of the universe?
The red planet sways from side to side like a whirligig when it loses speed. The new study allowed scientists to notice that the poles of Mars deviate slightly from the axis of rotation of the planet. On average, they move 10 cm from the center with a period of 200 days.
Such changes are called the Chandler Oscillations – after the American astronomer Seth Chandler, who discovered them in 1891. Previously, they were only seen on Earth. It is known that the displacement of the poles of rotation of our planet occurs with a period of 433 days, while the amplitude reaches 15 meters. There is no exact answer why this is happening. It is believed that the fluctuations are influenced by processes in the ocean and the Earth's atmosphere.
Chandler's wobbles on Mars are equally perplexing. The authors of the study discovered them by comparing data from 18 years of studying the planet. The information was obtained thanks to three spacecraft that orbit the Red Planet: Mars Odyssey, Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and Mars Global Surveyor.
Since Mars has no oceans, it is likely that the Red Planet's wobbly rotation is due to changes in atmospheric pressure. This is the first explanation that researchers have shared. In the future, there should be new details about the fluctuations that have so interested the scientific community.


Having trouble connecting to your HANA tenants DB in the cloud?
First time deploying a HANA MDC instance in the cloud? Getting error trying to create or connect to HANA tenant databases?
administrators user accounts SYSTEM and XS_ADMIN to be able to manage tenants.
For HANA STUDIO connectivity, you need SQL ports opened from internet.
As a reminder, each tenant DB has 3 ports for Internal, SQL and HTTP purposes (with successive numbers in range (3xx40 to 3xx99).
Launch and configure your HANA Studio with access to SYSTEMDB of the HANA instance you are targeting. You can use SYSTEM at first, but be sure to create appropriate technical users with limited privileges for different purposes (backup, monitoring, managing roles and users, etc.).
You can specify the scope to be system wide.
You can add the new connection to your tenant db in HANA Studio, with your user and specifying the targeted Tenant.
I am running SAP HANA Express on GCP and can't connect to the tenant database using HANA Studio.
Connecting to the SystemDB works without issues and also connecting via hdbsql to the tenant database works.
I tried both OS, Ubuntu, and SLES, without success.
I have read that other people had the issue and it was resolved with HANA Studio 2.3.
I upgraded to 2.3 and still have the issue.
I was thinking it could be a Google thing, but I am not sure.
Has anybody successfully connected to HANA Studio on GCP?
Do you have any other advice on what I can try to connect via HANA Studio?
Have you added the map_<host> parameter in from your HANA systemdb connection ?
I've made it work on GCP.


Commonly found on the ground, although can also be an adept climber. Droppings are rod-shaped.
Size: They are round and slender, ranging from 7 to 10 cm long in body length.
Head: Deer mice have a pointed nose and large, black beady eyes. Their ears are large with little fur covering them.
Color: Their bodies are bicolored with a light brownish-reddish top and white underbelly and feet.
Tail: These pests have short tails, distinctly bicolored (dark on top and light on bottom), and covered with short, fine hairs and can be 5 to 13 cm in length.
How Did I Get Deer Mice?
Deer mice are attracted to homes with plenty of vegetation and protective sites with piles of rocks or firewood in the yard. These pests may sneak into cabins and barns as well as homes in residential suburban and rural areas when cold weather hits.
These mice are small and move indoors through tiny openings near the ground. They may also climb to upper floors using vines and tree branches to sneak into attics.
How Serious Are Deer Mice?
Deer mice have several problematic habits inside homes. They build messy nests inside stored furniture or mattresses and cache food indoors. These stored nuts and fruits may attract insects and other pests into the home.
Deer mice may appear harmless, but they are known carriers of dangerous diseases that may spread through mouse parasites or contaminated food. Deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) should not be confused with one of the important reservoirs of Lyme disease, the white-footed deer mouse (Peromyscus leucopus).
These rodents are one of the main carriers of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, an illness transmitted through their waste. People who try to clean up their droppings or who simply live in an infested building may inhale this airborne virus.
How Do I Get Rid of Deer Mice?
Your local Orkin technician is trained to help manage deer mice and similar pests. Since every building or home is different, your Orkin technician will design a unique program for your situation.
Orkin can provide the right solution to keep deer mice in their place and out of your home or business.
Deer mice are most commonly associated with prairies or other bushy, wooded areas. These pests prefer areas with tall grass or brush for cover, particularly in woodlands and grasslands.
Deer mice live an average of two to 24 months, but can live as long as eight years in captivity. They reach sexual maturity in about 7 to 8 weeks. They produce two to four litters a year, usually during warm months. Typical litters contain three to five individuals, but may have as many as eight.

There's Nothing Wrong With Properly Politicizing a Tragedy
The unthinkable eventually happens. Why not exploit it?
By Kevin Mahnken
Observers of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday were treated to the spectacle of two members, Democrat Patrick Leahy of Vermont and Republican Chuck Grassley of Iowa, accusing one another of using the horrific attack on the Boston Marathon to achieve political goals. The previous week, Grassley had declared that the episode would help us "understand the gaps and loopholes in our immigration system," at a point when even he conceded that the immigration status of the two plotters was undetermined. Leahy, the committee's chairman, accused Republicans of exploiting the bloodshed to obstruct immigration reform, which eventually led Grassley to repeatedly shout, "I didn't say that," at a third committee member, New York Democrat Chuck Schumer. The theatrics generated headlines, as they were intended to do, but provided no insight into the attack, or immigration reform, or why two old colleagues would posture publicly like schoolyard rowdies.
It was inevitable that someone would be vilified for "politicizing" the marathon bombing—the scare quotes are necessary for such a meaningless term, an epithet that career politicians deploy against one another for the crime of seeming political.1 There can be no such thing as "politicizing" such an event, not when its origins and implications concern the public interest that our political system was expressly designed to advance. Virtually all the catastrophes that we deem senseless are, in fact, intrinsically political. Hurricane Katrina may have been an "act of God" to some monotheists and insurance claimants, but the act of appointing the former commissioner of the International Arabian Horse Association to head the nation's emergency preparedness efforts? Not so much. We may never fully understand why Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev did what they did, but we can, and should, account for as much as we possibly can, including how they came to America—and that's a discussion not just for investigators and the media, but Capitol Hill, too.
Little is novel about the dustup between Grassley, Leahy, and Schumer. All three senators have been in public life for decades and have had ample opportunity to play the role of both controversy-monger and solemn scold. Some of us are even old enough to remember when the spry Grassley of yesteryear criticized his friends in the majority for using the deaths in Newtown "to put forward every gun control measure that has been floating around for years." The man has held elected office since the Eisenhower presidency—he is surely savvy enough to realize that there is no essential difference between the two cases. Indeed, even while deflecting Leahy's admonishment, Grassley took exception to the Democrats' oh-so-political discussion of further regulating fertilizer plants in the aftermath of the deadly explosion in West, Texas. But senator, more than a dozen people are dead. By your own logic, isn't it fair to ask why?
There is nothing inherently objectionable about using very sad, heavily publicized incidents to instantiate an argument about public policy. It is the height of cynicism, however, to stand atop the bodies of the freshly killed and, without the benefit of proof, perpetuate a claim that is fantastically false. Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert was certainly guilty of this last week when he compared the Mexican border unfavorably with the security wall between Israel and the West Bank, ludicrously announcing that "Al Qaeda has camps over with the drug cartels on the other side of the Mexican border." Grassley was wrong to speak ominously about the dangers of immigration before the facts were known (both Tsarnaev brothers were legal residents of the United States, Dzhokhar a naturalized citizen while Tamerlan had a green card), but probably deserves a pass; Gohmert, one of the most consistently incendiary House members, actually earned the denunciation his Senate counterpart received.
Democrats should understand the good that can come of forthrightly pegging pieces of legislation to the social ills that precipitated them. It was Rahm Emanuel, after all, who observed that political leaders must never "let a serious crisis go to waste." Democrats would have done well to heed his advice in the wake of the Newtown atrocities: After the slow death of the Manchin-Toomey background check plan, it is difficult not to wonder whether President Barack Obama and his allies in Congress would have been successful had they proposed new gun laws immediately following the shootings, rather than tarry respectfully for a month while public support dwindled.
They are repeating the mistake presently, chastising Republicans for their lack of tact when they ought to be making inquiries about the guns used by the Tsarnaevs to kill and maim police officers in Massachusetts. Neither brother had a permit to own a weapon, as Massachusetts law requires, and Dzhokhar, at 19, would have been too young to obtain one anyway. So politicize away, Democrats. It may be the only way to get anything done.
It is also one of those odious neologisms, like dialoguing or securitizing, that make a hideous verb out of a perfectly honest noun.

Our Statement Against Racial Injustice
By Tom Griffiths
At Hone, like millions around the world, we have been outraged and saddened by the most recent examples of police brutality against black people in the US, and the treatment of protesters who are standing up against these injustices.
Such shameful incidents and their fallout add pain to those who are already hurting from the coronavirus pandemic, where black and brown communities are disproportionately affected in healthcare outcomes and job losses.
We cannot go back to the status quo. We stand with the black community – now and always – and have reflected deeply on how we, as a small company, can do our part.
Hone was founded with the mission of bringing greater access to leadership development, from a belief that education is one of the greatest change-makers and equalizers we have.
We will be offering complimentary leadership training to those who otherwise wouldn't have access, in partnership with organizations supporting such communities. We will also be hosting open sessions to help leaders, managers and talent professionals navigate these unique times. Details to follow, and introductions welcome.
While we already have a range of diversity, inclusion and bias programming, we are redoubling our efforts to deepen and share this work as well as further integrate these universal principles into all our programming.
Internally, we are committed to fostering an even more diverse and inclusive environment as our team grows.
"I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality, and freedom for their spirits."
— Martin Luther King, Jr.

Immigrant Youth Program
Character Program
The Risk Factors
Children Afflicted by Risk Factors face Harsh Futures
Studies show that at-risk teens will drop out of high school earlier than others, and that those students who drop out commit about 75 percent of crimes. Studies also show a close link between students who drop out and poverty, drug and alcohol use, teen pregnancy and gang involvement.*
Prospects are More Daunting for Immigrant Youth
Just 54 percent of immigrant undocumented youth have a high school diploma, compared to 82 percent of their U.S.-born peers. Only 5 to 10 percent of graduates continue their education and enroll in an institution of higher education, and fewer graduate with a degree.*
80,000 immigrant undocumented youth turn 18 and approximately 65,000 graduate from high school every year.*
One in seven of all San Diego children have at least one immigrant parent, and more than half live in poverty.*
In California, children of undocumented immigrants are 13.5 percent of students enrolled in kindergarten through grade 12.*
We provide support through information and guidance to students who have been living in fear and despair for most of their lives. This support gives them tangible hope.
A Caring Confidential Place to Share
Students call them "little family meetings." We provide a safe confidential space where youth share and engage with their peers in a school-based support system.
Personal and Long-Term Support
We accompany students on a personal and relational level through chaotic circumstances, unexpected problems and difficult situations with no easy solutions. Our students count on our commitment to them through high school and beyond.
Connection to Resources
We connect students to critical resources such as legal aid, financial aid for college, transportation, letters of recommendation, housing and many other resources
Why Does the SWOL Program Work So Well?
SWOL has served hundreds of at-risk and immigrant youth, and received volumes of letters and positive feedback from school staff and students. Why are we always asked to return to schools?
We have a genuine love and dedication for marginalized students
We foster a trusting, family atmosphere within our student groups
SWOL'S founder and program facilitator is an attorney and former at-risk youth
SWOL's workshops are known for their energetic positivity that gives students hope and raises self-esteem
Information and resources are conveniently brought to students within their schools
Students are provided with an easy-to-remember method for addressing issues
SWOL is a grassroots organization that offers quality, personal support with big impact
SWOL's goal is to treat the whole person, as opposed to one aspect of students' lives

PoliticsIllegal arms trade, contraband, trafficking pose security challenge
Illegal arms trade, contraband, trafficking pose security challenge
By: Yonas Abiye
In his ten-month report to the House of People's Representatives (HPR), Kassa Teklebirhan, Minister of Federal and Pastoralist Development Affairs (MoPDA), underscored the seriousness of the security threats that are posed by the illegal arms trade and contraband trade across the boarders and the deep-rooted human trafficking activities in the country.
In a comprehensive national security inventory that that the Ministry has conducted for the past ten months, Kassa brought to light some of the unadvertised and publicized security threats to Ethiopia among which an exacerbated level of cross boarder illegal arms trade which is fueling the various regional and national security threats to the nation.
"Among the major factors that exacerbate conflicts, is illegal arms trade. Huge amount of arms are being smuggled into the country in many directions and it is already posing a serious security threats to the nation," Kasaa told MPs.
He further said that in spite of elevated efforts by various regional governments to curb the illegal arms trade, the threat is far from being brought under control. According to Kassa, the scattered efforts by the various regional states and the securities agencies of the federal government are not bearing fruit in the fight against illegal arms trade.
According to Kassa, the challenge starts with the absence of comprehensive and uniform legal framework governing the fire arms sector. He also said that the various regional and federal controlling agencies require a common legal framework to work with and that has not come forth until now.
Similarly, growing contraband trade levels in Ethiopia are also proving to be another source of security problem for Ethiopia, according to the Minister. "The muscle and the tactics that are used by the contrabandists have grown consistently in the past year," Kassa told MPs.
The expanding levels of human trafficking are also another challenging issue for the country's security, Kassa noted in his report. According to his report, in spite of concerted effort to curb human trafficking across the nation, trafficking is among the major challenges that country faces today.
Kassa admitted that trafficking has not shown any signs of decline even with the introduction of a nationwide campaign and efforts to curb the challenges. What was more interesting was the analysis of the Ministry, which suggested that human trafficking is in fact helping out the various armed groups that are waging war against the nation. Most of these groups gain their power from human traffickers working across Ethiopia and the region.
In a grand scale, the report has also covered the number of security shook ups that the country went through during the past ten-moths. Primary among these were the somewhat stretched popular protest in the Amhara and Oromia regional states. Kassa said failure to address fundamental maladministration issues, lack of strong political commitment to address the grievances, poor inter-state coordination and to some extent legal loopholes are to blame for the deterioration of security in the country in the past ten months.
Nevertheless, in complete synchrony with what Prime Minister Hailemariam Dessalegn has said in the parliament few months ago, Kassa also assigned some blame to what he called "anti-peace elements" for seizing the opportunity that was created by the failure of the government at various levels to address grievances created in country.
The recurring conflict between the Nuer and Anwak ethnic groups and the tragic loss of lives there was another issue that Kassa dwelt on in his report. Although most of the issues have been resolved thanks to the intense dialogue that was conducted among security forces in the region, who were alleged to have taken sides in the conflicts, Kassa stressed that lessons have to be drawn from the tragic experience specifically regarding the slow response of federal forces in the face of ensuing violence.

Banned driver caught over the limit in Mansfield after strong home-made wine
Notitngham Road, Mansfield
Published: 15:59 Wednesday 15 May 2019
A banned drink driver downed strong home-made wine before getting behind the wheel of a car in Mansfield, a court heard.
Petru Dragu's Vauxhall Zafira was seen driving erratically on Nottingham Road, at 2am, on March 24.
A test revealed he had 115 mcgs of alcohol in 100 mls of breath, when the legal limit is 35 mcgs.
Prosecutor Leanne Townshend said he was banned for 19 months, in January 2018, after he was caught over the limit.
Probation officer Greta Percival said Dragu had received a gift of strong wine from a Romanian friend, and he drank two mugs of it before driving to a disco in the town centre.
"At no point did he say he felt ashamed of what he has done," she said.
She said he moved to Stevenage to work as a building site labourer in the week, and in a car-wash at weekends, having been in the UK for seven years.
Dragu, 29, of Shackledell, Stevenage, admitted drink driving, and driving without a licence or insurance, when he appeared at Mansfield Magistrates Court, on May 9.
On Wednesday, he was banned for four years.
He was given a 12 month community order, with ten rehabilitation days, and 100 hours of unpaid work.
He must pay £85 court costs and an £85 government surcharge.
