idea of concept
Renovation of existing park and creation a new charming meeting-area.
The Multimedia Fountain Park is located in an existing park "Plac Dywizji Pancernej" in "Śródmieście" in Warsaw directly on the main street no. 7 along the Vistula with a pond surface of 2200 m². The water basin and the technical rooms were renewed completely. The entire construction contains 385 nozzles, 55 pumps and 216 lamps. Through the perfectly coordinated interplay of pumps thus the fountains, the illumination, the effects of laser and projector and the music you can marvel the inimitably experience of water. On the water film of the Screen-nozzle (30m width/10m high) in the main basin the projector and the laser are projecting pictures and films. 60 nozzles with illumination (Nozzle-Star LED with VarioSwitch) are actuated separately in the Linear Pool. So it is possible to create a so-called wave fast or slow.

The inspiration for the multimedia show 2017 is Warsaw's legend. This year in a performance entitled "Back of the Basilisk" on Podzamcze, a threatening mythical creature appeared, which in a single glance is changing people into a stone. As it turns out, in today's world can no longer cope as well as in the ancients times. The final song under the title "Legends Live in Us" was composed by Piotr Rubik and performed by the National Opera, Aleksandra.
May 1st, 2016 saw the opening of the sixth year of shows at Multimedia Fountain Park in Warsaw. The story of this years' show which revolves around the "Mermaids of Warsaw", refers to the city of today as well as to its history. A symbolic commemoration of Krystyna Krahelska alias 'Danuta", the show also presents the modern, young women of Warsaw, who are active and engaged in the city life.
Around 31,000 people gathered for the opening of the new show " The Wizard of the Empire " at the famous Multimedia fountain in Warsaw. Both tourists and citizens enjoyed the water spectacle. This year's show tells the story of the recently discovered magical kingdom of a wizard. The kingdom, which is under the surface of the fountain , is hidden to human eyes. The wizard provides energizing powers to the city with a complex control system . It was once again a stunning water show with light and many special effects.
Inspired by the legend of the founder of Warsaw, the new show 2014 "The dance of sources" narrates a tale of two characters with extraordinary powers. The girl has control over water and the forces of nature. She has the power of giving life which is contained in water and nature. The boy, on the other hand, possesses the power of light, energy and imagination. His attributes are strength, speed and dynamism - which are necessary to build a new city. Their meeting is the combination of different elements which leads to the formation of new energy.
The new "Water Symphony Show" achieved great success in front of an audience of 30.000 people at the Multimedia Fountain Show of Warsaw on May 3th, 2013. This show presents a lovely story about a family that visit a philharmonic concert. It illustrates how much grandparents, parents and their son are enjoying the concert with their emotions coming alive and describes their passion for the philharmonic orchestra. This great OASE show is a prime example of how the living water makes lasting impressions on people and gives them unforgettable moments at the Multimedia Fountain of Warsaw.

Invoke the spirit of a handwritten greeting! The four corners of this wickedly crafted card are calling – you just gotta put some magic inside! The perfect card for all you weirdos, just listen to Nancy Downs.


During the start-up of factory operations, a fire broke out at the Hattorf site last Friday causing damage to the process control system power supply. Based on current information, repairs will take three to four weeks. During that time, it will not be possible to resume production as planned.
Plant firefighters were able to quickly put out the fire. No one was injured. However, damage was caused to the power supply for the central process control system, which controls the processing plant operations.
The production of Epsom salt from intermediate products supplied has not been affected by the damage as that takes place in a separate operational section of the Hattorf site. Production at the two other Werra plant sites, Wintershall and Unterbreizbach, is continuing normally.
The employees affected, so far as possible, will be deployed at other sites. The damage will be covered by the property and business interruption insurance held by the K+S Group. The insurance policy provides for the reimbursement of the costs of repairs to any property damaged as well as of any costs resulting from the interruption of business operations that can be evidenced.


Retail medical clinics have recently emerged as an alternative to the current healthcare delivery system. They can be found nationwide in major retail chains such as Minute-Clinic (CVS), RediClinic (WalMart) and Take Care (Rite Aide/Walgreens). These retail chains are working with selected U.S. markets, including Tennessee, to test this new delivery system. This article presents a description of a fast-growing alternative healthcare delivery system and the state requirements for physicians who participate by supervising nurse practitioners.
"The clinical care and business models of these clinics vary by operator and location but all have a common value proposition: they offer consumers a limited menu of simple health services within a walk-in retail environment." The in-store clinics have a simple layout consisting of a reception desk and one or two examination rooms. The average floor plan measures between 200 and 500 square feet. Nurse practitioners and physician assistants are generally the on-site staff, supervised by physicians in varying degrees. The clinics treat patients on a walk-in basis, and are often open seven days a week with evening hours.
In theory, these retail clinic models promise to lower costs by doing away with expensive overhead, using less expensive labor and eliminating patient billing. However, from both a business and medical care perspective, the retail clinic model "is still very much in flux." Primary care physicians and pediatricians have been vocal about the downsides of this alternative healthcare service. They have expressed concerns regarding the quality and continuity of care, particularly the treatment of patients with serious or chronic conditions. These physician groups urge close physician oversight of non-physician providers working in the retail clinic setting.
Tennessee must be a Certified Nurse Practitioner (CNP). To be a CNP, the NP must hold a state RN's license; hold a masters degree or higher in a clinical specialty area; have certain minimum pharmacology training; hold national professional nursing certification in the appropriate specialty; and receive from the Board of Nursing an Advanced Practice Nurse (APN) certificate, with a certificate of fitness to prescribe. Once received, NPs must then file a notice with the Board of Nursing containing the name of the supervising physician, and a copy of the formulary describing categories of legend drugs to be prescribed, among other requirements.
In Tennessee, the collaboration requirements do not require the continuous and constant onsite presence of a supervising physician, but the physician must be available to the CNP for consultation at all times or make arrangements for a substitute physician. The supervising physician and CNP are required to jointly develop and approve written protocols that serve as guidelines for medical management. The CNP is required to practice within the scope of these guidelines. These guidelines are to be updated biennially. Supervising physicians are responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable standard of care and developing guidelines, in collaboration with the CNP, that include a method for documenting consultation and referral. Although not required by the regulations, risk management objectives may lead supervising physicians to define the scope of practice for supervisees to exclude certain patient populations.
Supervising physicians are required to personally review at least 20 percent of the charts monitored or written by the CNP every 30 days or every 10 business days when medically indicated, requested by the patient or when certain prescription conditions apply. Supervising physicians are required to visit any remote site at least once every 30 days. Physicians reviewing charts and visiting remote sites should not only examine the quality of care, but also examine compliance with the written protocols established for the practice as well as state regulations. Special attention should be given to the prescribing regulations found at Rules of Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners (Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs), Chapter 0880-6-.02(5)(e), (7)(c)-(e), (11), & (12).
Since the regulations require the supervising physician be responsible for "ensuring compliance with the applicable standard of care" as posted in Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs Chapter 0880-6-.02(5)(b),(6), the physician needs to be aware of the possible liability exposure for malpractice committed by the practitioners they supervise. Thus, supervising physicians and substitute supervising physicians should disclose their supervision responsibilities to their malpractice carriers and should have the nurse practitioner(s) or physician assistant(s) they supervise listed as additional insureds in the declaration of coverage.
Whether or not the retail medical clinic model becomes a permanent feature of the healthcare system, the premise behind it, a limited scope of service in a convenient retail environment, may influence the design of future delivery systems. To ensure quality of care and continuity of services, these clinics must build effective relationships with local primary care physicians and pediatricians in order to treat and track patients who have multiple and chronic medical conditions. Supervising physicians should become familiar with Tennessee state rules and regulations regarding supervision. They should also notify their malpractice carriers of their supervising role.

One notable... um... note is that this version also marks a change in my build system. As I do most development in Linux I was originally having to switch OS to build the executable. I've now got a setup which lets me use Wine to build the executable natively, and am using that. One slight problem is that it seems that, at least on my current version of Wine, I'm unable to actually test the executable natively. I have checked with the current version that it runs etc, but I may not with other versions (as it takes a fair amount of time). As Python is highly portable, I'm not too concerned about this, as things will almost certainly work anywhere... but if there's a crash with really obscure errors, that's probably what's happened.

Share this Story: Interpretive centre plan moves forward
Interpretive centre plan moves forward
Apr 09, 2013 • April 9, 2013 • 2 minute read
The dream of an interpretive centre showcasing Brantford's role as a 19th and 20th century manufacturing hub at the former home of the Cockshutt Plow Co. is taking a significant step forward.
The community services committee agreed this week to negotiate a lease of the timekeeper's building and the portico of the old Cockshutt office building plus 0.8 hectares (two acres) of land at 66 Mohawk St. with the Canadian Industrial Heritage Centre. The goal is to establish an interpretive centre in the building that would showcase the region's significant role in industry.
"There were 15 to 20 large companies that made this city very important between 1850 and 1950," CIHC's John Kneale said.
"Many are still here, but that's the principal period we'd be addressing. This could become, although a very small facility, a very attractive and informative centre."
The CIHC submitted its proposal to Brantford in September to take the building, along with the portico, once $37,200 of remediation and some emergency repairs are complete and establish the centre. A fundraising campaign would bring the remaining money needed to complete the needed renovations to the building and grounds at no additional cost to the city.
Kneale said the CIHC was seeking a solid assurance of a lease from the city before it began the fundraising campaign, which will have to wait until an outstanding but stalled Ontario Municipal Board appeal is either withdrawn or proceeds. The OMB appeal was filed after the entire Greenwich-Mohawk brownfield was rezoned when the city had entered into an agreement with Terrasan Corp.
Manager of policy planning Paul Moore told councillors the city cannot at this point lease any part of the land that would require a change of use like the one needed for an interpretive centre until the open file before the OMB is closed or settled. A lease can be negotiated and presented to council in draft form, but it cannot be signed until the other matter is settled.
"From council's point of view there is no downside," Ward 3 Coun. Dan McCreary said.
"This will complete a piece of the puzzle that's been hounding the residents of this neighbourhood for almost two decades.
"This is the genesis of something great in that neighbourhood. Everyone should be pleased about this, there is no downside."
There was some resistance around the council table, since resolving the zoning question could still put a delay on how soon the CIHC could take possession of the site and begin cleaning up the exterior. Kneale said as soon as the centre could legally do so, it would make the site and building presentable while interior renovations were done.

6 Facts about James Mattis, Trump's Choice for Secretary of Defense
Photo credit: Getty
From ELLE
While you were weeping into your Cheerios and trying to find out whether humans can survive on Mars yet, Donald Trump was interviewing potential cabinet members. A few weeks back, he met with former Marine General James Mattis for an hour and capped the meeting by tweeting about it, of course.
General James "Mad Dog" Mattis, who is being considered for Secretary of Defense, was very impressive yesterday. A true General's General!
- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 20, 2016
Outside the estate where Trump held court this weekend, Trump deemed Mattis "the real deal." How sweet. Here are 6 more facts you need to know about him:
1. He served over four decades in the marines.
Mattis spent 44 years in the Marine Corps, rising in the ranks and ultimately running the U.S. Central Command. He retired from the post in 2013, which means...
2. Technically, he's not eligible for this job.
Federal law stipulates that the secretary of defense cannot have been on active duty for at least seven years, so, if Mattis is confirmed, he'll need Congress to issue him a waiver in order to take the position. Given that Republicans control both chambers, it doesn't seem Mattis has reason to be worried about it. It "would likely be a formality," according to CNN. Rules-why bother!
3. His nicknames are "Warrior Monk" and "Mad Dog," so you know he's chill.
At 66, Mattis has never been married and has no children. His single-minded focus on and penchant for combat have earned him these cute nicknames. Really paints a picture of just the kind of slow and cautious dude I want to guide of our armed forces.
4. He thinks it's "fun to shoot some people."
Discussing the use of force in Afghanistan, Mattis said in 2005 that he enjoyed the violence. "You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil," he said. "You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left, anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them. Actually, it's a lot of fun to fight. You know, it's a hell of a hoot."
"It's fun to shoot some people," he added. "I'll be right up front with you; I like brawling."
The comments generated considerable controversy. Responding, Mattis later said that he should have chosen his words more carefully.
5. He's a reader!
Some good news! Mattis is a "voracious reader," according to the Telegraph. He has at least 6,000 books in his personal library and likes to carry a book of quotes from Marcus Aurelius, the Roman emperor and stoic, into battle.
6. He's a critic of the Iran deal (but he doesn't think we can scrap it).
Delivering a speech at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in April 2016, Mattis said that he believed the Obama administration had been too lenient with Iran and was naïve to accept the terms of the nuclear deal. But he isn't about to propose America start from scratch. "What we achieved was a nuclear pause, not a nuclear halt. We're going to have to plan for the worst," he said.

What Biden can and can't get from an evenly divided Senate
So what does a 50-50 Senate get President-elect Joe Biden? Washington has barely had time to process the implications of Democratic control after two Georgia runoff elections that are delivering the Senate to Democrats. The unexpected new balance of power giving Democrats only the barest control of Congress has big consequences for the president-elect — easy confirmation of his Cabinet most importantly — but the road ahead for his ambitious legislative agenda remains complicated and murky.

Jacques Salbigoton Quesné, né à Pavilly (Seine-Maritime) le  et mort à Saint-Germain-en-Laye (Yvelines) le , est un homme de lettres français.

Biographie
Après avoir été clerc de notaire et commis marchand à Rouen, il s'engage à l'âge de seize ans dans la marine marchande, où il subit coup sur coup deux naufrages. Il abandonne alors la marine, puis, atteint par la conscription, sert quelque temps dans l'infanterie. S'étant fait remplacer en 1800, il s'établit à Paris pour se consacrer à la littérature. En 1804, il devient inspecteur des droits réunis dans les départements de la Creuse, du Cantal et de la Roer. Il prend sa retraite en 1812 pour ne plus s'occuper que de littérature. Entre 1831 et 1834, il tient à Bruxelles une succursale de la Librairie parisienne.

Écrivain polygraphe et prolifique, il est jugé « trop fécond romancier » et n'est guère apprécié, bien que certains de ses ouvrages, tels son Busiris, ou le Nouveau Télémaque et sa Lettre à Mme de Fronville sur le psychisme, aient connu une certaine vogue avant de tomber dans l'oubli.

Legendary Slade frontman Noddy Holder has been crowned this year's King of the Sizzle and will champion the 14th annual British Sausage Week, which runs from October 31 to November 6. The event comes at just the right time for those Halloween and Bonfire Night weekend motorhome trips.
A life-long sausage fan, Noddy joins the British Sausage Appreciation Society to celebrate the British Banger and judge the finest banger recipes across the country, awarding worthy contenders with a 2011 British Sausage Week Gold Disc.
Cider and Sausage Festival (October 28-30) with prizes for the best Halloween costume and best carved pumpkin, games, entertainment and live music, on the Friday night at the Crown and Stirrup, Clay Hill, Lyndhurst, SO43 7DE, at 7pm.
Create your own sausage recipe and get it made by Oakwood Butchers in Brockenhurst. Using New Forest Marque pork as the main ingredient, let your imagination run wild with seasoning and spices and email your own unique sausage recipe to New Forest Marque today (October 21). During British Sausage Week, the finalists' sausages will be made by butchers and judged by panellists including James Golding, Head Chef at newly launched The Pig – a country house hotel with a modern twist. The prize includes a voucher for 'bangers and mash' for a family of four (two adults and two children) at The Drift Inn at Beaulieu Road, as well as a New Forest Marque apron and cookbook.
During British Sausage Week, choose from classic sausage, mash and onion gravy or more modern sausage fajitas, blackened Cajun peppers, onions, soft tortilla wraps, salsa, sour cream and guacamole served beside a roaring log fire at the historic Drift Inn in the heart of the New Forest. Walking boots, wellies and waggy tails welcome.
Sausages are a vital ingredient in the New Forest Breakfast designed by New Forest chefs to include at least three foods with the New Forest Marque stamp of quality, which are often free range and organic and always local, right down to the bread.
Take a taste of the New Forest home with a copy of More Seasoning, a new cook book featuring recipes, such as Sausage Pockets.
You can buy local sausages at Longdown Activity Farm Shop, Setley Ridge Vineyard and Farm Shop and other New Forest outlets.
Sandy Balls Holiday Centre, Godshill, Fordingbridge SP6 2JZ.
With its swimming pools, 200 hardstanding pitches, pub and restaurant. It's a five-star park, open all year and popular with families and anyone who likes a spot of gentle cycling, horseriding, walking or angling. On our Caravan Sitefinder website one of our readers wrote: "Sandy Balls (despite a name you can't help childishly sniggering at) is, and always has been, a beautiful haven in which people can get away from the stresses and strains of modern life and get closer to nature and it's surroundings. I have been going for years."
Red Shoot Camping Park, Linwood, Ringwood, Hants BH24 3QT. Possibly the most exciting thing about this simple little campsite is that it is next to The Red Shoot Inn, with its micro-brewery, and is right in the heart of the New Forest, with ponies wandering freely around the pub. It's open until October 31. A reader wrote on our Caravan Sitefinder: "We stayed here whilst visiting the New Forest and it was a well run and clean site. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and we had a wonderful and relaxing time. There is so much here and I wish we had stayed longer!"
Many of the New Forest's Forest Holidays campsites close on September 26, but here are two gems that stay open until Halloween.
Setthorns Caravan & Camping Site, Wootton, New Milton BH25 5WA.
This secluded four-star Forest Holidays site has no toilets or showers, but there are premium pitches available. Open all year, this site offers a chance to get close to the wild deer and ponies roaming around.
Holmsley Caravan & Camping Site, Forest Road, Thorney Hill, Bransgore, Christchurch BH23 7EQ.
Sausages are now so popular that five million British people eat them every day.
The nickname 'Bangers' came about during World War II, when the high water-content in the sausages turned to steam during cooking, making the sausages pop and sizzle in the pan.
There are 470 known recipes for sausages, but some of the most popular ones are the curly Cumberland, peppered Yorkshire, herby Lincolnshire and West Country Pork and Apple varieties.
Wherever you're touring between Halloween and Bonfire Night, there's bound to be a sizzling hot sausage-related event near you.

Firefly Lane: Plot, The Songs, And More
by Alvina Jennifer
Credit: Digital mafia tricks
Firefly Lane explores the boulevard of love, loss, and the magic of friendship. Thus, the Netflix series traverses across the lane of Life. In the turbulent summer of 1974, Kate Mularkey retired in silence to her place at the bottom of the eighth-grade social food chain. However, to her great surprise, the most fascinating girl in the world moves in across the street and wishes to be her friend. Indeed, Tully Hart apparently has it all. She is beautiful. She is intelligent. Adding to her charm, she is a strong-willed girl who has her eyes set on her ambition in life. Indeed, Tully and Kate are poles apart. But that's just the surface, the visible part of the iceberg.
Kate is stripped of the glamour that Tully has. Although Kate's family loves her, it mortifies her at every turn. Indeed, Kate is damned to be forever uncool. On the other hand, Tully is glamorous. Indeed, she has this air of mystery about her that appeals to everyone she meets. However, a secret is nibbling at the fabric of her life. A gnawing secret holds her hostage.
Firefly Lane is the touching, powerful story of two women and the friendship that becomes the embankment of their lives. Their friendship provides them an emotional anchor.
The songs
Credit: The epitaph
We see Tully sailing and tossing through a desperate need to prove her worth to the world. The theme of abandonment runs like an umbilical cord through her life. Indeed, her mother deserted her at an early age. Thus, ever since that instance of desertion Tully desires unconditional love. The longing has woven itself into her life. Thus, the Firefly Lane explores the existential themes of loneliness and longing. Initially, Tully looks to men to fill the wound of void in her soul. However, later we see it is television news that arrests her attention. Thus, she will make a pilgrimage to New York and around the globe to follow her own blind ambition. Indeed, she will find fame and success. However, almost nothing will heal the loneliness. In fact, in the glamour of fame and success , she will rediscover the mysterious human condition – man is enisled across the sea of life.
From the beginning, Kate knows her life will be nothing special. In fact, all she really wants is to sail on with an ordinary life. She wants to fall in love, explore the labyrinths of the act of loving, have children, and walk along the lane of an ordinary life. However, what she does not know is how being a wife and mother will compel her to depart from herself. She doesn't know how adapting to the new roles will change her, make her lose sight of who she once was. She will be an unaccommodated woman. Again, existential. A misfit. She will cultivate envy from her new life. Her famous best friend will start to haunt her.
If you religiously watch Firefly Lane, it will unfurl for you all your personal secrets. Thus, the series has received universal acclaim from both the critics and audiences.

260-RSC : Recommendations for use of superabsorbent polymers in concrete construction
Technical Committee 260-RSC
Chair: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Viktor MECHTCHERINE
Deputy Chair: Dr. Mateusz WYRZYKOWSKI
Activity ending in: 2021
Cluster A
The introduction of Superabsorbent Polymers (SAP) as a new component for the production of concrete materials makes available a number of new possibilities with respect to water control and, as a result, to the control over the rheological properties of fresh concrete, in addition to purposeful water absorption and/or delayed water release in either fresh or hardened concrete. As examples of this, inducing of an abrupt change in rheological behavior during shotcreting and the internal curing(IC) of High-Performance Concrete (HPC) might be given here, respectively, but the potential for innovation is far wider, e.g.for creating in concrete of appropriately size-designed pore systems which could improve its durability, especially in terms of freeze-thaw resistance. Pore systems built up as a result of SAP addition seem to remain stable regardless of the consistency ofthe concrete, the addition of superplasticizer, or the method of placement and compacting. Further applications have been proposed, some as vague ideas as well as some supported by preliminary investigations. An example of such suggestions is the utilization of SAP as micro-reservoirs for chemical substances which would be released under specific conditions such as temperature, changes of the chemical composition of pore solutions, passage of time, etc., to improve the durability and overall performance of concrete. Also, the use of SAP as a multifunctional additive has been recently demonstrated.
The increasing interest in the use of SAP as a concrete additive and the need for intensive scientific exchange among research groups led in 2007 to the initiation of the RILEM Technical Committee 225-SAP "Application of Superabsorbent Polymers in Concrete Construction". The committee's objective was to coordinate research efforts and compile the results of studies with respect to the effects of SAP addition on the properties of concrete in its fresh and hardened states. The main product of the committee's work was a State-of-the-Art Report which summarized the available information and knowledge in the area and provided as well a solid basis and a good reference for further research. Also, it served as starting point for further activity of RILEM TC 225-SAP, including two round-robin tests. The first round-robin test was performed by 13 international research groups. All found a considerable decrease in autogenous shrinkage of HPC attributable to internal curing with SAP. This demonstrates that internal curing using SAP is a robust approach, working independently of some variations in the concretes'raw materials, production process, or measuring techniques. Furthermore, effects of internal curing on other properties ofconcrete in its fresh and hardened states were investigated. The second round-robin test run at 14 international laboratories has focused on the durability aspects, specifically on the freeze-thaw resistance with and without de-icing salt. The results of the tests are being evaluated currently and an article for Materials and Structures is in preparation. Furthermore, RILEM TC 225-SAP organised an International RILEM Conference on "Use of Superabsorbent Polymers and Other New Additives in Concrete", Lyngby, Denmark, 15-18 August 2010. Another conference on this topic is being organised by the TC in Dresden,Germany, 14-17 September 2014. The proceedings of these conferences provide additional references to that constituted by the State-of-the-Art Report.
Researchers and practitioners in different countries around the world are presently investigating possibilities and limits of using SAP for solving various problems encountered by practitioners in the field. There are also first promising pilot applications which encourage companies and scientists to move forward the use of this new additives in concrete construction.However, the step from the research lab into the practice of construction requires considerable efforts. At the first place, the practitioners need clear recommendations in which cases and how SAP can or should be used, how to consider addition of SAPand possibly IC water in concrete mix design, how to estimate the effect of SAP addition on various properties of concrete infresh and hardened state.
The main objectives of the committee are (1) to collect and analyze information on applications of SAP in concrete, (2) toinitiate necessary research activities for clarifying open questions related with practical use of SAP, and (3) to develop practical recommendations for utilizing SAP in concrete construction. These recommendations will mainly address technological procedures (e.g. storing of SAP, mixing procedure, pumping, spraying, curing), concrete mix design (e.g.optimization of the type, dosage and properties of SAP, the amount of additional water) and testing methods for specific material properties which may be affected by the use of SAP, as well as the specification of SAP for practical applications. In doing so, numerous interacting phenomena such as shrinkage, creep, thermal effects, cracking, and interface quality should beinvestigated and taken into account.
In summary, the aim is to produce recommendations on the use of SAP as a practical guide to assist material technologists, design engineers and researchers. The conclusions of the TC are expected within 4 to 5 working years.
The members to be recruited for the TC will be recognized experts in the domain. In order to take into account the different practices and standards in Europe, Japan and North America as well as their respective spheres of influence, including ISO, EN and ASTM standards, the TC will include representatives from the aforementioned world regions.
Since the main goal of the new TC is the elaboration/generation of recommendations for engineers and practitioners, their participation is necessary. Actions are expected in the different geographical areas covered by the members of the TC to initiate local (national or multi-national) groups involving practitioners. These groups will work complimentarily to the TC.The close information exchange between the TC and the practitioners groups will enable recognizing the most relevant and current practical problems on one hand, and implementation of the recent findings and recommendations of the TC in practice on the other hand.
The work of the TC will focus on bringing together the expertise and knowledge of all participating members. The first synthesis of expertise will be done at the inaugural TC meeting.
On this base, the TC will simultaneously address the following items:
- Recommendations for testing of SAP (methods, characteristic parameters, description of properties, etc.)
- Recommendations for material design and manufacturing of concrete with addition of SAP for various purposes
- Recommendation on considering effects of SAP addition on workability (incl. pumping and spraying), setting time and early age properties of concrete
- Round-robin test for the effect of SAP addition on plastic shrinkage and recommendations on curing of SAP concrete in early age
- Recommendations on considering effects of SAP on concrete properties in the hardened state.
Activities of the committee will include organizing an international RILEM conference on Application of Super Absorbent Polymers in Concrete Construction.
The proposed TC is a follow-up of TC 225-SAP "Application of Superabsorbent Polymers in Concrete Construction" lead by Prof. V. Mechtcherine. The state-of-the-art report of the RILEM TC 225-SAP gave an account of the positive effects of the use of SAP in concrete construction as an efficient internal curing agent, agent for formation of stable pore systems, additive for regulating workability of concrete. Also other potential applications of SAP in concrete were proposed.
The work of the committee is related to a number of other technical committees of RILEM. The following RILEM committees are identified to be relevant for the present project:
Technical Committee SIF: Surface delamination of concrete industrial floors
Technical Committee SPF: Spalling of concrete due to fire: testing and modelling
Technical Committee MCT: Multi-component transport and chemical equilibrium in cement based materials
Technical Committee 230-PSC: Performance-based specifications and control of concrete durability
Technical Committee 248-MMB: Methods of measuring moisture in building materials and structures
The work on recommendations will provide input to relevant standardization and pre-standardization work within ACI, ISO, fib, ASTM, NIST etc.
The work will be carried out in connection with national or multi-national local groups involving practitioners as mentioned in Section 3.
Expected achievement:
- Recommendations for the practitioner
- Reports on results of round-robin tests
- International RILEM conference
- RILEM PhD Course
Results diffusion:
- During the tenure of the TC: publication and presentations of the ongoing results by their respective authors (in scientific journals and conferences)
- Reports in "Materials and Structures"
- Proceedings of the RILEM Conference
- At the end of the TC tenure: Publication of Recommendations.
The targeted users are researchers, practitioners and standardization bodies in the field of concrete technology.
Reliable rules and recommendations for the utilization of SAP in concrete should enable the introduction of this new additive into the practice of construction. The use of SAP offers new possibilities with regard to enhancing the durability of building materials as well as the confident steering of other relevant properties in fresh and hardened state. A considerable economic impact can be expected due to the benefits connected with the utilization of SAP.
Through the local national or multi-national groups specified in Section 3, the practitioners are envisaged to implement the TC's recommendations in their respective countries until the adoption of national or international standards.

Europe's SECOND WAVE fears: New Sweden COVID-19 spike hits after cases were 'almost zero' – Express.co.uk
The small municipality of Gallivare, 1,000 km (620 miles) north of the capital and home to about 17,000 people, said on its web page the spread was out of control and dangerous. "From a situation two weeks ago where we were down to close to zero cases, we now see uncontrolled spread," said Stefan Nieminen head of crisis communication at Gallivare district. An increasing number of people in Gallivare were absent from work due to sickness, he said, adding this suggested the infection was more widespread than official statistics showed – Gallivare has had 128 confirmed cases since the pandemic began.
"We are very, very concerned," he said, adding not all sick people had been tested.
The Norrbotten region, where Gallivare is located, said it had recorded 55 new cases and four deaths between Tuesday and Wednesday. Norrbotten, home to about 250,000 people, has had 800 cases and 63 deaths since the start of the pandemic, including the new cases and deaths.
The Gallivare website described the latest Norrbotten data as "an alarming frequency of new cases".
Nieminen said Gallivare was looking into the possibility of stopping public transport to and from Gallivare and would have more information later on Wednesday.
The outbreak comes at an awkward time for Swedish authorities as nationwide travel restrictions were eased earlier this week. Sweden's Nordic neighbours have kept their borders closed to Sweden, citing the high level of spread.

Within the MySQL data directory, the InnoDB storage engine creates two types of files — the data files and the redo log files. Each data file (or ibd file) belongs to exactly one tablespace. Each tablespace is given a unique identifier called the space_id. One tablespace can have 1 or more data files. If a tablespace has more than one data file, then the data files have a specific order or sequence. The data files can be thought of as being concatenated to each other in that specific order.
The data file is made up of a series of equal sized pages. Each page in the data file is given a unique number identifier called the page number (page_no). The first page of the first ibd file is given the page_no of 0. The page number of the first page of the second ibd file of the tablespace is one more than the page number of the last page of the first ibd file and so on. So the page number is unique within a tablespace even if it has multiple data files. Given the combination of "space_id, page_no", a single page in any data file can be uniquely identified within the given data directory.
The data files contain user data and system data. The user data is what the database applications and users will store in the database. The system data is what InnoDB creates and maintains in order to implement its storage engine features (for example: the page headers, tablespace headers, segment information, and undo logs). Each individual page is also categorized into a given page type based on how that particular page is used. One such page type is an extent descriptor (xdes) page. In this post we'll examine the details of an extent descriptor page; we'll look at both the its structure and its contents.
An InnoDB data file or ibd file is a sequence of equal sized pages (supported page sizes). These pages are grouped into extents and segments. One extent is a contiguous sequence of pages in an ibd file. The number of pages belonging to an extent depends on the page size. The following table provides the relationship between page size and extent size (in pages and megabytes). The extent size is accessed by using the macro FSP_EXTENT_SIZE in the source code.
An extent is the basic unit of file space allocation in InnoDB. A segment is made up of a sequence of extents. A segment can contain non-contiguous extents. Refer to Data Organization in InnoDB for more details.
The identifier of the segment to which the extent belongs.
The location of the previous extent descriptor within the same segment.
The location of the next extent descriptor within the same segment.
The state of the extent.
The allocation bitmap of the pages within the extent. The size of this bitmap depends on the number of pages in the extent. For each page, 2 bits (XDES_BITS_PER_PAGE) are used. So if the extent has 64 pages, then the size of this allocation bitmap per extent is 16 bytes.
For each page, the allocation bitmap has 2 bits — XDES_FREE_BIT and XDES_CLEAN_BIT. The XDES_CLEAN_BIT is currently unused. The XDES_FREE_BIT tells you whether the page is free or it's currently in use. So the extent descriptor is what tells us whether each page is free or used within that extent. Thus the extent descriptor helps to locate free pages within an extent.
XDES_FREE — The extent is in the free list and the space can be used.
XDES_FSEG — The extent belongs to a segment.
XDES_FREE_FRAG — The extent belongs to the free fragment list.
XDES_FULL_FRAG — The extent belongs to the full fragment list.
When an extent is yet to be used by any segments, it will be in the XDES_FREE state, meaning that it is "free space". When the whole extent is allocated to a segment, then it will go into the XDES_FSEG state. There are situations in which InnoDB will decide that individual pages within a particular extent can be allocated to different segments. Such an extent will then be put in the free fragment list using the XDES_FREE_FRAG state. When a fragmented extent is completely used (no free pages), then it will go into the XDES_FULL_FRAG state.
The file page header (38 bytes).
An array of extent descriptors (variable, depending on the page size).
The file page trailer (8 bytes).
The following table provides information about the number of extent descriptors that will be stored in an extent descriptor page, for each given page size.
In the above sample code, the first xdes page (with page number 0) is being read into memory. The two headers (the page header and the space header) are being skipped and the first extent descriptor is read. The byte order conversion is then performed and the state of the extent descriptor is printed.
This article provided information about the extent descriptor (xdes) pages in InnoDB. The list of free and used pages within data (ibd file) files can be identified by making use of the allocation bitmap within an xdes page.
I hope that this has been interesting and proves helpful! Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. As always, THANK YOU for using MySQL!
For the convenience of the reader, I am providing the complete compilable code sample by combining the code snippets above. I have hard coded the page size to the default 16K bytes. I have tested it on Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn).
Disclaimer: The code snippet and sample program in this article is provided for educational purposes only. While I tested the code on my laptop, it is not guaranteed to work on all platforms. While the above sample program uses GCC's __attribute__((__packed__)) , InnoDB does not use them. So using the packed attribute could potentially introduce data alignment issues, thus making the code somewhat platform dependent.

Luke Morris gives us his early thoughts on the All-Weather Championships and a horse he would love to ride on Saturday!
Luke Morris | 20.02.2016
It is just over a month until All-Weather Championships Finals Day takes place on March 25 and we've now got a good idea of who will be turning up at Lingfield. With that in mind, I've had a look through each of the races on Good Friday and picked out the horses I think will be hardest to beat:
3 Year Old Mile Championship
I think this is quite a tight division with no standout horses at the moment. The one that would appeal to me most is Cape Speed. He's won his last two starts and is an improving horse for Mark Johnston. Now he's on the upgrade he may well be good enough to win on Good Friday.
3 Year Old Sprint Championship
Gracious John is still the horse to beat in this division. Even though he got beat at Chelmsford last time I'm sure he's the best horse going for this race. It wasn't ideal how he went around Chelmsford the other day and he's gone around well Lingfield before, so as long as he's physically fine he'll be tough to pass.
Sprint Championship
This is a really competitive tight race. The horses to focus on I think are Goken and Lancelot Du Lac and of the two I would go for Lancelot Du Lac. He's shown a really good level of ability on turf and all-weather and he's is going to be hard for the others to beat.
Mile Championship
Mindurownbusiness was very impressive the last day at Wolverhampton in a conditions race. For me, this horse has improved again since last year when he was unlucky not to win on Finals Day. I'd be very surprised if he was beaten on Good Friday granted normal luck in running.
Marathon Championship
This looks a tricky race and Moonrise Landing looks the one with the most scope for improvement. She was impressive when winning at Wolverhampton, she's probably got a bit more to come and she'll go there fresh and on song. Anglophile would be a solid alternative against her.
Fillies & Mares Championship
It looks like this race may fall apart now with the likes of Lamar and Don't Be retired. For me it leaves it all open for Cold As Ice. She ran very well in a Listed race over six furlongs last time and was slightly unlucky that day as she was a bit further back that ideal in a slowly-run race. I'd don't think she'll be beaten.
Coral Easter Classic
If Let's Go comes back from Dubai he would be respected in this race. In general the race lacks a little bit of depth this year so for me the solid horse in there is the all-weather specialist Grendisar. He's a hostage to fortune in the way he has to be ridden and he was good when winning at Lingfield last time.
Looking at Lingfield this weekend, if I was able to take one ride it would be on Australian Queen in the 1m fillies' maiden (2.00). She's well-bred being the half-sister to Arabian Queen and she's bumped into a couple of nice sorts on her two starts so far. This looks a race where she's more than capable of losing her maiden tag.
If you like the look of Luke's tip this weekend, then head over to Coral to back Australian Queen now!

© Sergei Savostyanov/TASS
MOSCOW, June 15. /TASS/. The Moscow City Court has sentenced US national Paul Whelan to 16 years behind bars for espionage against Russia, TASS reports from the court hall.
"The court has ruled to sentence Whelan to 16 years behind bars in a high-security correctional facility," the ruling reads. Whelan has been found guilty under article 276 of the Russian Criminal Code (Espionage).
Russian prosecutor demands 18-year sentence for US spy suspect Whelan
The prosecution had previously asked the judge to sentence Whelan to 18 years behind bars.
US citizen Paul Whelan, who also holds British, Canadian and Irish passports, is a global security chief at BorgWarner, a Michigan-based automotive components company. The Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) earlier said Whelan had been detained on December 28, 2018 in Moscow while on an alleged spy mission. A criminal investigation was opened against him on espionage charges carrying a punishment of up to 20 years behind bars. Whelan had deemed the case against him "politically motivated."

Somalia's Al-Shabab Claims Baidoa Attack Killing 30
Islamist militant group al-Shabab has said it carried out Sunday's attack in Somalia's southern city of Baidoa that killed at least 30 people.
A car bomb exploded outside a restaurant as people were watching the English Premier League match between Manchester United and Arsenal.
In a second explosion, a suicide bomber blew himself up at a busy junction.
This is the fourth major al-Shabab attack in Somalia since the beginning of the year.
It came on the same day as countries which contribute to the African Union force in Somalia, Amisom, pledged "to reinforce military operations in Somalia, to effectively counter threats from al-Shabab".
President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud held an emergency cabinet meeting on Sunday evening in response to the Baidoa attack, and Security Minister Abdirizak Mohamed Omar called for extra laws to help the government fight the militant group.
AU representative in Somalia Francisco Madeira condemned the attack saying he was "saddened by the loss of innocent lives through acts of terror committed by ruthless individuals who have no value for life".
In addition to the 30 deaths, the attacks injured 60 people who are being treated in hospital, a local journalist told the BBC.
15 January – on a Kenyan base in el-Ade that Somalia's president said killed at least 180 soldiers
21 January – on a restaurant at Mogadishu's Lido beach killing 20 people
26 February – on Mogadishu's SYL hotel killing nine people
28 February – on a restaurant and busy junction in Baidoa killing at least 30 people
Baidoa is being protected by Ethiopian soldiers, who make up part of the 22,000-strong Amisom force.
Troops from Uganda, Kenya, Burundi, Sierra Leone and Djibouti are also part of the force that supports the Somali government in its attempt to gain control over the country.
Heads of state from the troop supplying countries said after a meeting in Djibouti on Sunday that they were concerned about the "decision by the European Union to reduce financial support to Amisom… by 20% especially during this critical phase of operations".
The EU, which pays for troop allowances, decided to cut its funding earlier this month.
The leaders of the countries contributing troops to Amisom have called for an urgent review of their military response to al-Shabab, following weeks of sustained violence.
In addition to the weekend's attacks, jihadi fighters have clashed with Amisom troops in different parts of the country, forcing the peacekeepers to withdraw from some areas.
Somalia's allies now say more needs to be done to stem these attacks.
The Amisom nations agreed at Sunday's meeting in Djibouti that they need more funding and logistical support for their own operations, not to mention helping the Somali National Army stand on its own feet.
The leaders complained that the absence of their troops in some key regions provided a safe haven for al-Shabab.

I love my PowerBook. I have a 17″ 1-GHz G4 AlBook. This isn't my first PowerBook either. I have an old 333-MHz G3 "Lombard" in a bookshelf acting as a file server and remote connection box. There's an even older PowerBook 1400 also floating around. As you might guess, I've been laptop-empowered for a number of years now (it's almost ten!) where I don't have a desktop computer. It's very convenient being able to take your life with you on the go, especially when your life involves multiple areas: web development, university-level teaching, and Ph.D. research.
My only complaint about PowerBooks is the chips in them are usually well behind the desktop in terms of power. Apple's just released a speedbumped PowerBook, but it's still only a G4 chip and 1.6 GHz at that (OK, it's faster than mine, but still!). Compare that with the desktop G5 offerings or even the dual G4 towers. My two-year-old PowerBook is only a little above the minimum specification for playing World of Warcraft. (-: So, as you might gather, this isn't much of a complaint. My Lombard stood me in good stead for all three of my spheres in life for just over three years. This one will probably go that long too. I'm not sorry about the investment in the least, even though laptops are more expensive. Go for it!
Do strongly consider buying AppleCare for your laptop. The only things you can cheaply replace in them are memory and hard drives. Everything else costs big bucks if it has a problem. AppleCare is expensive, but it's worldwide coverage and good peace of mind. I've never been sorry about AppleCare on a portable product.
I ran across this Joy of Tech comic the other day and it started me reminiscing about old hardware sweeties in my life.
Someone mentioned to me, while discussing this comic, that they had a paper white monitor on their old DOS box. I had a few of those paper white monitors. They were so crisp compared to the green screens. I picked them up dirt cheap one day (in the 90s) back at a computer flea market. Siufai and I used to go down to these things on the weekends and then build cheap PCs out of components we'd pay next to nothing for. Do people still do that or are cheap pre-built systems integrators so ubiquitous that it's unnecessary?
While hardly ancient, my old Apple "Lombard" G3 PowerBook from 1999 has been turned into a roving iTunes server for the house, hooked up to our swoopy stereo system in the living room–a poor man's AirPort + AirTunes. We can control it via a web-based interface or use a VNC to pretend that we're right in front of the machine. It's a little awkward (have you noticed how awkward this word is itself?), but it gives us access to a lot of music and to playlists without leaving our chairs.
Our other slightly faster "Lombard" we traded to EinSweetie's mother for her old stationwagon so we have a car when we're in Canada. She's using it to do e-mail and to surf the web, enhancing her guerilla gardening activities.
Someone else commented that their Commodore 64 had the beautiful "blue screen of life". Ah, the blue screen of life, so bright, so vivid! Ah, those were the days. I have a working Commodore 128 packed away in Canada with a working 1571 drive. When nostalgia really hits me hard, I fire up one of my Macintosh C-64 emulators and play games. "Kill him, my robots", anyone?
The most useful piece of kit from my C-128 set-up, though, is the RCA monitor that Commodore branded and shipped with it. That monitor was an excellent RCA television and mine has travelled from Edmonton, to Vancouver, to Regina, back to Edmonton, and is now with me here in England. It had standard RCA inputs, so it makes a good video monitor when hooked up to a DVD player or a VCR! We used it here in England, when we first moved here, to play my North American PlayStation games! It's still going strong!
While newer stuff may be (currently) dearer to our hearts, what are we doing with our former equipment sweeties which is cool/interesting and makes them still useful? Tell us your Hardware Sweetie Stories!

Leticia van de Putte News Conference With Texas Progressive Bloggers
April 8, 2014 By Egberto Willies 1 Comment
Leticia van de Putte
Senator Leticia van de Putte told Texas Progressive bloggers that she is culminating her 9 day 16 city bus tour. She said earlier in her trip she met with Houston Area bloggers. Blogger Stace Medellin wrote about that event at Dos Centavos.
Leticia van de Putte said she needs to get home to do some washing. That was kind of touching. A woman running for Lieutenant Governor of the great state of Texas is still thinking about taking care of home as she campaigns throughout the state.
Leticia van de Putte said as she traveled throughout Texas she spent most of the time listening. She said people on the border were insulted by the rhetoric used by Dan Patrick. She said people in West Texas were concerned that it took so long for officials to realize that the water situation left them in dire straits.
Leticia van de Putte said all over the state people were concerned about the cuts in education. She said in the metro areas people were concerned about the lack of transportation funding. She said all over the state citizens were concerned about the bickering. They were concerned about college affordability for the next generation.
A blogger asked how she intended to attract Republicans. She said simply concentrating on education, transportation, and other specific issues that interests all. She said many Republicans are telling her they do not know what has happened to the GOP. They said they are not Democrats but they want solutions and will be supporting her.
I asked Leticia van de Putte what was her position on the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare). Republican Governor Rick Perry has left over one million Texans uninsured with his refusal to accept the Medicaid expansion to Obamacare. I asked her if she would be running away from the topic. "We are Texas," Leticia van de Putte said. "We do not shy away from anything. And your leaders should not shy away from anything even if it is a challenge."
Leticia van de Putte went on to say that the business community has been begging the governor to accept Medicaid expansion. She said when Rick Perry refused to expand Medicaid, he said no to 200,000 jobs, 68,000 veterans, and over 4 billion dollars the state has already paid in taxes to the federal government. She said other conservative governors sat down with the administration for a solution. Texas should be able to do the same.
I followed my question asking about getting the narrative right. Leticia van de Putte said that there is no way Democrats will win the TV battles. She said however with the help of bloggers and social media the war can be won. She wants to use bloggers and social media to successfully get the message out.

San Diego Rental Market Spotlight: Carlsbad
Rental Spotlight
Micki O'Toole
The San Diego rental market is hot, and it's easy to see why property owners are investing in the greater San Diego county area, but what sets each area apart? Carlsbad is a community of almost 7-mile strip stretching along the Pacific coast and a popular tourism destination. A smaller city in its own right, Carlsbad is home to around 110,000 residents.
Carlsbad Housing History
So who lives in Carlsbad? As part of San Diego county, the Carlsbad community has a long history dating back to Spanish settlements but really gained an identity in when spa-quality water was found in the nearby wells and put to good use by the Carlsbad Land and Water Company, for whom the town was named.
In addition to being a hub for tourists since the 1880's, Carlsbad also has a strong agricultural history including crops such as avocado, citrus, and olive.
Carlsbad Housing Demographics
Over 44,000 housing units call Carlsbad, California home.
Average household size - 2.58
Owner-occupied housing - 62.6%
Population density - 2,792.2 per square mile
While the area is definitely dominated by smaller families and single family homes, it's clear there is still a huge rental market here beyond home owners. The average 2015 home value in Carlsbad is around $700,000 while the average value in California only ranks around $450,000. Even more impressive, this $700k value has risen from an average around $310,000 in 2000. With such a high price point for owning a home, it may be easier for some Carlsbad residents to rent out a residential property. Working with a full-service property management company is a great way for property owners to find tenants for their Del Mar home or condo.
People of Carlsbad
Carlsbad seems like more than just a suburb of San Diego, but who really lives there? The majority of Carlsbad residents work white collar jobs -- 91.41% of the population! And these white collar jobs are highly focused in offices, with 41.06% working in management careers, sales, or administrative capacity. This white collar populations shows through too with an estimated median family income of $96,340 in 2015. With this sort of lifestyle, it's much more common to see single-family homes in this area of San Diego, as opposed to multi-family properties.
Renting in Carlsbad
The average rent in the greater San Diego area is $1,630 per month, up 5.3% over the last year. Average rent doesn't account for location an amenities though, as a 400 square foot beach apartment can easily run as much as $1,650 per month.
Carlsbad specific rent averages $1,762 from 2011-2015. In comparison, in San Diego in January of 2011, two bedroom rentals averaged only $1,323 per month. Population growth holds strong too, rising by 43.5% since 2000.
Carlsbad Attractions and Amenities
Carlsbad is not just a part of the greater San Diego area, but a community in its own right. Enjoy the sunny beach resorts as you relax to the ocean waves or try paddle boards or winding bike paths. Don't forget the world class golfing either!
Carlsbad residents get to enjoy the greater San Diego area too. Families can view flora and fauna at the San Diego Zoo or become a build master at Legoland. Support local marine wildlife at Seaworld or help rescue exotic animals at the Free Flight Exotic Bird Sanctuary where they nurture and resocialize colorful parrots.
It's clear that when you shine a spotlight on Carlsbad -- the sun shines. Carlsbad offers upscale California living that blends the sparkle of Orange County with the relaxed beaches of the San Diego area with a wide array of options for an investment property. With a population that has continued to grow rapidly since 2000, there exists a highly in-demand rental market that will continue to rise.
A qualified property management company can help you price competitively, find tenants, and manage the day to day responsibilities of a property manager.

The 2018 Cruisers Cantius 42 breaks new ground for this luxury sport-cruiser builder.
The Cruisers Yachts Cantius line influenced boat designs world-wide, beginning with the introduction of the original Cantius 48 way back in 2010. Followed by the Cantius 41, the Cantius 45, the Cantius 54, and the flagship Cantius 60, all of these models have followed one simple theme: Maximize interior natural lighting with windows and glass doors all around, and bring that light below-decks with an "atrium" style companionway to the lower cabin. And while the new 42 holds true to these two design traits, the cabin is also completely different from all others in this line. Curious? Check out this First Look Video we shot at the 2017 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, to find out why.
Considering how successful the entire Cantius line has been in the past, why would Cruisers ignore that old adage "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"? Because as time goes on and boats change, people change the way they use them. One of the big changes we've seen among boats of this genre and the boaters who use them is a transition to cooking meals outside, on electric grills. That's one of the reasons the Cantius 42 houses a grill in the transom. And by shifting the dinette into the aft end of the cabin and at the same time utilizing the huge opening provided by those sliding glass doors, the dinette is essentially connected to the cockpit, with its own exterior settee and dinette. Suddenly, you can create an indoor/outdoor party zone with seating and dining space for the entire crowd. Plus, you have easy access to the burgers and dogs the moment they come off the grill, as well as easy access to the indoor galley and its refrigerator full of chilled beverages.
As expected and as is the norm for all Cantius models, even inside the cabin you're treated to sunlight and salt breezes via a huge electrically-opening sunroof. But another surprise for Cantius fans lies to port across from the double-wide helm seat, where on other models you'd have found the dinette that the 42 shifts aft. Here, Cruisers has created a combination forward-facing seating (best for use when the boat's in motion) and an aft-facing lounger (best for when you're kicking back and relaxing at anchor).
The Cruisers Cantius 42 certainly shares many traits with its Cantius brethren, but the layout has some features that are quite unique, too.
The lower cabin isn't too different from those found on other models in this line-up. Transition down the mini-atrium—it's a bit smaller than on its bigger brethren, a natural result of the boat's more compact foot-print—and you'll first spot a forward guest stateroom with a pedestal queen berth, hanging lockers, and of course plenty of ports and windows to ensure copious natural light belowdecks. The master is a full-beam, which is a bit unusual for boats of this size though certainly not unheard-of. That means you get windows on both sides and a surprisingly large berth. Yet another surprise you'll have down here is discovering that both staterooms have their own heads (the guest's is separate and does double-duty as the day-head). On a 50-footer you expect that kind of privacy, but on a 42' boat, not so much.
There are even separate social areas to be enjoyed in privacy in the great outdoors, on the Cantius 42. Yes, of course the cockpit is one of them. But Cruisers also utilizes the bow with the addition of a small but comfortable and functional cushioned bow cockpit. It's mostly limited to fun in the sun for two, with a pair of loungers and cupholders, but even that is more than one usually expects to find in a boat of this size and nature.
Yes, that is a (small) cockpit up on the bow – one that cruisers creates without sacrificing cabin space, the usual cost of adding a cockpit up front.
The 42 was locked in tight at the boat show, so alas, we weren't able to take it through the inlet and give the boat a full-blown sea trial. That said, Cruisers sticks with some very basic parameters when it comes to performance, and assured us that it's no different with the new 42. The first is the use of Volvo-Penta IPS pod drive propulsion, in this case a pair of 370 HP IPS 500 powerplants. This ensures easy dockside handling thanks to joystick control, as well as rather sporty performance. And since these are the exact same powerplants used in the Cantius 41 (which we have tested and have performance numbers for), we can make a pretty solid estimate of cruising speeds in the mid 20-knot range, and a top-end in the low to mid 30-knot range.
Just how comfortable will you be, hitting these speeds in the open ocean? As a rule of thumb Cruisers Yachts provide a solid ride, and we expect it to be no different in this model. There are two reasons why: first off, the Cantius line is based on the same deep-V hullform (which, by the way, was one of the first ever designed specifically for use with IPS pod power), and second, Cruisers constructs these models with forethought and heavy-duty use in mind.
A tour of the Cruisers factory proved this point. While there, we saw various models in different stages of construction and noted several important boat-building techniques being applied. We saw stringer systems bedded in polyester bonding material, the use of isophthalic laminating resin (which is more durable than many other types), hull-to-deck joints bonded all the way around, and liners bonded with methyl-methacrylate adhesives (commonly sold as Plexus—the same stuff they used to attach the heat-protective tiles to the Space Shuttle).
A tour of the engineroom in the 42 also proves quite educational. You'll see extensive use of top-end building materials like stainless-steel, cushioned clamps, and raceways that protect wiring and hoses. You'll also notice that all of the plumbing, wiring, and through-hulls are clearly identified and marked, so future maintenance chores will be as easy as possible. On top of that, filters and maintenance access points for the engines are all easily accessible.
With the introduction of that 48 Cantius, Cruisers Yachts proved it was a ground-breaking company. Since then we've seen their design imitated in numerous boats, built by numerous companies. And if Cruisers wanted to lay on its laurels it could have easily rolled out a new Cantius that was merely the old design in a different size. But they didn't. Instead, an examination of the new 42 proved beyond a doubt that Cruisers is still breaking new ground—and is adapting to the ways people want to use a yacht, rather than forcing people to adapt to the designs that are already out there.
Other Choices: Boat shoppers interested in the 42 Cantius will also want to check out the Tiara 44 Coupe, which places the master stateroom in the bow and the guest amidships. An option with similar accommodations but in a more traditional package can be found in the Hunt 44 Express Cruiser. And slightly smaller options that still support a two-stateroom layout would include the Beneteau Gran Turismo 40, and the Sea Ray 400 Sundancer.
