As of Feb. 6, the World Health Organization has calculated the death toll in China from the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak at 564, up from 500 the day before. According to the New York Times, 28,060 cases have been confirmed in the country and 225 cases (including one death) have been confirmed beyond China's borders.
The virus' impact on travel and hospitality has been palpable: The World Health Organization has issued a "do not travel" advisory for the entire country, and most commercial air carriers have reduced or suspended routes to and from China. Preliminary data and analysis from STR found a hotel occupancy decline of 75 percent in mainland China from Jan. 14-26, and performance during the Chinese New Year holiday period was down significantly.
While the Chinese New Year holiday week normally sees a "significant shift in travel patterns," the report noted, with a rebound generally following. "The week [of] Chinese New Year had low occupancy, as expected," Jan Freitag, STR's SVP of lodging insights, told Hotel Management. "But the following week, the occupancy actually dropped and did not sharply rebound as we had seen in a normal travel year." On Jan. 26, STR reported occupancy of just 17 percent in mainland China, meaning that—on average—eight of 10 rooms were left unoccupied.
Given the travel restrictions and warnings, it should come as no surprise that inbound travel to China has sharply declined. According to business intelligence firm ForwardKeys, inbound bookings for the Chinese New Year period were 4.5 percent ahead of where they were at the same time last year up to Jan. 19. A week later, they were 7.2 percent behind. Bookings from the Americas alone fell from 0.4 percent ahead to 13.4 percent behind. Asia Pacific, China's largest source market with a 65 percent share of visitors, dropped from 6 percent ahead to 6.2 percent behind.
Earlier this week, the NYU School of Professional Studies decided to postpone the NYU April 2020 Hospitality and Real Estate Investment Conference that had been scheduled for NYU Shanghai. In a statement, the school said the measure "must be taken to safeguard the health and well-being of those who would have attended the conference, as well as those who would have participated as speakers and panelists." The school expects to reschedule the event for April 2021.
Nicholas Graf, associate dean of NYUSPS, noted the "gigantic amount of uncertainty about the pandemic" and how the virus is likely to spread. Given that, and due to the timing restrictions of registering for a conference and booking flights, "we thought it would be very impractical for people to plan attending given that many airlines have suspended flights." By postponing, he said, the conference—and the industry—will have "ample time to recover" as things get back to normal. Significant events like these, he added, tend to have a short- to medium-term impact on travel in general. "I do not expect the virus to cause any long-term trend."
Outbound Travel
Outbound Chinese travel has been a powerful force in hospitality in recent years, so the new restrictions are likely to have an impact on hotels worldwide. "China is now the world's biggest and highest-spending outbound travel market, so the presence of Chinese visitors is eagerly anticipated by the tourism industry globally," said Olivier Ponti, VP of insights at ForwardKeys, noting the economic impact could have been worse if the outbreak had happened even weeks earlier.
According to data from ForwardKeys, outbound travel from China was set to break all records for the season before the travel restrictions were implemented: Up to Jan. 19, outbound travel bookings from China (excluding Hong Kong and Taiwan, where political unrest has affected travel) were 7.3 percent ahead, benchmarked against the equivalent period in 2019. As of Jan. 26, when Wuhan airport was closed and the Chinese government stopped outbound tour groups from traveling, bookings for the Chinese holiday period were 6.8 percent behind.
But while the records weren't broken, David Tarsh, managing director of Tarsh Consulting, which works with ForwardKeys, told Hotel Management the year could still be "a pretty decent year" for outbound Chinese travel. "An awful lot of Chinese [people] have successfully left China to go on their New Year holiday," he said.
Lessons from SARS
The hospitality industry has already dealt with an Asian virus that affected travel trends, and may be able to take some lessons from history. The 2003 SARS outbreak caused a 28 percent drop in travel demand, Freitag said, citing data from STR partner Tourism Economics.
If the industry reacts to the coronavirus in the same way it reacted to SARS, hotels in the U.S. can expect a 28 percent drop in inbound Chinese travelers, 4.6 million fewer roomnights sold and a $5.8 billion drop in visitor spending—"which then equates to roughly 0.3 percent demand decline," he said. While this may not seem like a huge percentage, Freitag said that STR had recently, for the first time since 2009, predicted flat revenue per available room growth for U.S. hotels in the coming year. "If you have a negative influence on the room demand data, no matter where it comes from, that would then curtail total room demand, occupancy and then therefore RevPAR, so that's why this is significant," he said. "It's small, but it could shift the data from flat growth to neg to decline."
"While it is understandable to look for comparisons with the SARS outbreak that began in 2002, it is important to consider the significant differences in the market over the last two decades," Jesper Palmqvist, STR's area director – Asia Pacific, said in a statement. "Dependence on smartphone technology, the widespread use of social media, significant differences in hotel inventory, greater volume in international arrivals to mainland China and overall economic conditions make it difficult to use that previous outbreak as an indicator this time around. There is also greater potential for hotel performance impact in other markets around the world because of the increase in Chinese outbound travelers."
Graf, for his part, expects to see the effects of the virus for the next several months. "If history can tell us something [about] these viruses, the impact on travel tends to last months [after] the peak of the epidemic," he said. "Even if it peaks within a month, the effect on travel will likely be felt through the spring and likely through the summer."
But the hospitality industry has emerged from crises before. At the time of the SARS outbreak, David Tarsh was working with the World Travel & Tourism Council, and recalls that the travel industry was "truly on its knees" due to fears of contagion. "That's not the case now," he said, and noted how Bill Marriott advised hoteliers to close off the lower floors of their properties if they were struggling for bookings. "In doing that, you're giving your guests an upgraded experience from what they would normally get, but you continue to trade."

Андреас Сеппи (; родился 21 февраля 1984 года в Больцано, Италия) — итальянский профессиональный теннисист; победитель четырёх турниров ATP (из них три в одиночном разряде).

Общая информация
Андреас — старший из двух детей Уго и Мариалуис Сеппи; его сестру зовут Мария. Сеппи-младший родился и вырос в немецкоязычном регионе страны.

Итальянец в теннисе с семи лет. Любимые покрытия — грунт и хард, лучший удар — форхенд. Своим кумиром в мире тенниса Андреас называет Евгения Кафельникова за его бэкхенд.

Спортивная карьера

Начало карьеры

Профессиональная карьера Андреаса Сеппи началась в 2002 году. В этом году он выиграл первый одиночный «сателлит», а в следующем году первый титул серии «фьючерс» в Мюнхене. В сентябре 2002 года в парном разряде турнира в Палермо Андреас дебютировал на основных соревнованиях ATP-тура. В апреле 2004 года Сеппи дебютировал в составе сборную Италии в отборочных матчах на Кубок Дэвиса. В августе итальянец дебютирует в основной сетке на турнире Большого шлема в США, где доходит до второго раунда, победив в первом круге № 12 в мире на тот момент Райнера Шуттлера — 3-6, 4-6, 7-6(5), 7-6(1), 6-1. В сентябре он впервые сумел добраться до четвертьфинала на турнире АТП в Палермо.

В мае 2005 года Сеппи удачно сыграл на турнире серии Мастерс в Гамбурге. Во втором раунде он обыграл теннисиста из Топ-10 Гильермо Каньяса, а по итогу смог выйти в четвертьфинал. После турнира 21-летний итальянский теннисист впервые поднялся в первую сотню мирового рейтинга. В июле он дважды добрался до стадии 1/4 финала на турнирах Гштаде и Штутгарте. Осенью он сыграл в полуфинале турнира в Палермо и четвертьфинале в Меце. В 2005 году финиширует в сотне лучших теннисистов по итогам года (69-е место).

На старте сезона 2006 года Сеппи смог выйти в четвертьфинал в Аделаиде и полуфинал в Сиднее, где смог в 1/4 финала обыграть № 4 в мире Ллейтон Хьюитт. Несмотря на хорошую форму, на Открытом чемпионате Австралии Сеппи проиграл в первом раунде в пятисетовом поединке Янко Типсаревичу. В феврале на турнире в Загребе он смог выйти в четвертьфинал, а в парном разряде вместе с Давиде Сангинетти вышел в финал. В апреле Андреас доиграл до четвертьфинала турнира в Валенсии. В июне он попал в полуфинал турнира на траве в Ноттингеме.

В июле 2007 года Сеппи сыграл свой первый финал ATP в одиночном разряде. Произошло это событие на турнире в Гштаде. В финальном матче он проиграл французскому теннисисту Полю-Анри Матьё со счётом 7-6(1), 4-6, 5-7. В том же месяце итальянец достиг четвертьфинала на турнире Кицбюэле. В октябре на турнире в Вене Сеппи вышел в полуфинал.

В феврале 2008 года в Бергамо Сеппи выигрывает первый титул на турнире серии «челленджер». На турнире АТП в Роттердаме он смог переиграть вторую ракетку мира Рафаэля Надаля (3-6, 6-3, 6-4) и вышел в четвертьфинал. В мае Андреас неплохо сыграл на серии Мастерс в Гамбурге. Он обыграл четырёх теннисистов, в том числе и № 9 в мире Ришара Гаске, и вышел в полуфинал. На этой стадии итальянца останавливает лидер мировой классификации Роджер Федерер. Затем она дошла до стадии четвертьфинала в Пёрчах-ам-Вёртер-Зе. В июне в Ноттингеме Сеппи также выходит в 1/4 финала в Ноттингеме. На Уимблдонском турнире он впервые вышел в третий раунд Большого шлема. Летом итальянец принимает участие в Олимпийских играх в Пекине, где на теннисном турнире в одиночном разряде доходит до второго раунда, а в парном проигрывает уже в первом. В августе он сыграл в 1/4 финала в Нью-Хэйвене. На Открытом чемпионате США он вышел в третий раунд. По итогам сезона он занял 35-ю строчку.

2009—2012 (первый титул АТП)
В январе 2009 года Сеппи на Открытом чемпионате Австралии вместе с Симоне Болелли сумел дойти до четвертьфинала в соревнованиях мужского парного разряда. В первый личный полуфинал в сезоне он выходит в мае на грунтовом турнире в Белграде. На Уимблдоне Андреас второй год подряд проходит в третий раунд. В конце июля он вышел в полуфинал грунтового турнира в Умаге, а в августе побеждает на «челленджере» в Сан-Марино.

Сезон 2010 года начался для Сеппи не лучшим образом. Первого четвертьфинала он достигает уже в июле на турнире в Бостаде. Там же он вместе с Симоне Ваньоцци выходит в финал парных соревнований. Через неделю Андреас смог пройти в полуфинал турнира в Гамбурге, а затем в полуфинал в Умаге. В начале августа итальянец взял «челленджер» в Кицбюэле. В октябре он вышел в дуэте с Дмитрием Турсуновым в парный финал турнира в Токио.

Ещё в один парный финал Сеппи попадает в январе 2011 года на турнире в Дохе в партнёрстве с Даниэле Браччали. В феврале он выигрывает «челленджер» в Бергамо. На основных соревнованиях ассоциации Андреас добился успеха в июне. На травяном турнире в Истобрне он смог выиграть дебютный титул АТП. В финале Сеппи сразился с Янко Типсаревичем, который почти доиграл матч, но отказался от продолжения при счёте 7-6(5), 3-6, 5-3 в пользу итальянца. В Истборне Сеппи вышел и в парный финал с Григором Димитровом, но уступил его. Летом он дважды сыграл в четвертьфинале на турнирах в Умаге и Кицбюэле. В парном розыгрыше Открытого чемпионата США Сеппи в альянсе с испанцем Давидом Марреро вышел в четвертьфинальную стадию. В сентябре он сыграл в 1/4 финала в Бухаресте. В октябре Андреас побеждает на «челленджере» в Монсе и выходит в четвертьфинал турнира в Санкт-Петербурге.

Сеппи стартовал в 2012 году с четвертьфинала турнира в Дохе. В феврале до этой же стадии он дошёл на зальном турнире в Роттердаме, а в апреле на грунтовом турнире в Бухаресте. В начале мая в Белграде Сеппи смог выиграть второй титул АТП. В финале он переиграл французского теннисиста Бенуа Пера — 6-3, 6-2. В том же месяце на Мастерсе в Риме Андреас смог обыграть № 10 в мире Джона Изнера, № 20 Станисласа Вавринку и выйти в четвертьфинал, где его обыгрывает Роджер Федерер. На Открытом чемпионате Франции итальянец впервые пробился в четвёртый раунд, одержав в двух встречах победу в пяти сетах. На этой стадии он навязал серьезную борьбу лидеру мировой классификации Новаку Джоковичу. Сеппи смог выиграть первые два сета, но затем проиграл последующие три — 6-4, 7-6(5), 3-6, 5-7, 3-6, и выбыл с турнира. Их матч продолжался 4 часа 18 минут. В июне на турнире в Истборне Андреас остановился в шаге от защиты прошлогоднего титула. В финале он проиграл Энди Роддику (3-6, 2-6). В августе 28-летний итальянец выступил на Олимпиаде, которая проводилась в Лондоне. Во втором раунде он проиграл Хуану Мартину дель Потро. В конце сентября Сеппи вышел ещё в один финал на турнире в Меце, где в борьбе за титул уступил седьмой ракетке мира Жо-Вильфриду Тсонга — 1-6, 2-6. Завоевать титул ему удалось в октябре на другом зальном турнире в Москве. В решающей встрече за кубок Кремля он обыграл бразильца Томаса Беллуччи — 3-6, 7-6(3), 6-3. Сезон 2012 года стал самым успешным в карьере итальянца и по его итогам он занял 23-е место в рейтинге.

2013—2017

В январе 2013 года Сеппи прошёл в полуфинал турнира в Сиднее. На Открытом чемпионате Австралии в третьем раунде в пяти сетах он смог обыграть № 12 посева Марина Чилича и впервые на турнире вышел в четвёртый раунд. После выступления в Австралии Сеппи впервые поднялся в Топ-20 мирового рейтинга, заняв 18-е место. В феврале он сыграл в четвертьфинале турнира в Дубае. Лучшим результатом грунтовой части сезона стал полуфинал в Оэйраше, а на Ролан Гаррос он вышел в третий раунд, одержав две пятисетовые победы. В Истборне в июне итальянец вышел в полуфинал, а на Уимблдоне смог выиграть три матча, в том числе и у № 12 посева Кэя Нисикори. В четвертом раунде он проигрывает Хуану Мартину дель Потро. В июле Андреас сыграл в полуфинале. На Открытом чемпионате США в матче третьего раунда он проиграл Денису Истомину. Этот матч стал третьим в сезоне их пятисетовом противостоянием. До этого в Австралии и на Уимблдоне побеждал Сеппи. В начале октября в партнёрстве с Фабио Фоньини он вышел в парный финал в Пекине. На кубке Кремля он вышел на защиту прошлогоднего титула, но смог в этом розыгрыше дойти до полуфинала. В ноябре сыграл на «челленджере» в Ортизеи и стал его победителем.

Первого четвертьфинала в сезоне 2014 года Сеппи достиг весной на турнире в Мюнхене и затем на турнире в Дюссельдорфе. На кортах Ролан Гаррос Андреас в третьем раунде проиграл № 5 в мире Давиду Ферреру. В июле он, не одержав ни одной победы из-за отказа соперника на турнире в Кицбюэле, оказался в четвертьфинале, где проиграл Хуану Монако. В августе для выхода в четвертьфинал в Уинстон-Сейлеме потребовалось одержать две победы. Осенью он дважды выходил в четвертьфинал на турнирах в Шэньчжэне и Москве. В концовке сезона он стал победителем «челленджера» в Ортизеи.

На старте сезона 2015 года Сеппи смог выйти в полуфинал в Дохе. На Открытом чемпионате Австралии в матче третьго раунда он сотворил сенсацию, обыграв Роджера Федерера в четырёх сетах — 6-4 7-6(5) 4-6 7-6(5). В следующем раунде он сам проиграл в упорной борьбе Нику Кирьосу (7-5, 6-4, 3-6, 6-7(5), 6-8). В начале феврале на зальном турнире в Загребе итальянец добрался до финала, где проиграл Гильермо Гарсие-Лопесу (6-7(4), 3-6). Следующий раз в финал он попадает в июне на турнире в Халле. Два матча перед этим он выиграл из-за отказов соперников: 1/4 финала не смог доиграть Гаэль Монфис, а 1/2 Кэй Нисикори. В решающей встрече Сеппи проиграл Роджеру Федереру — 6-7(1), 4-6. На Уимблдоне он доиграл до третьего раунда, где проиграл третьей ракетке мира Энди Маррею. Летом на грунтовом турнире в Гамбурге Сеппи успешно выступал до полуфинала, где его выбил Рафаэль Надаль. На Открытом чемпионате США ему также не очень повезло со жребием, в третьем раунде он уступил № 1 в рейтинге Новаку Джоковичу.

На Открытом чемпионате Австралии Сеппи смог пройти в третий раунд, где проиграл Джоковичу. Первого четвертьфинала в сезоне он достиг в феврале в Софии, а следующий раз в мае на турнире в Ницце. В феврале он также смог выиграть первый парный титул АТП, завоевав его в Дубае в команде с Симоне Болелли. В июне на траве в Халле Андреас вышел в четвертьфинал, а в Ноттингеме в полуфинал. В августе на Олимпийских играх в Рио-де-Жанейро Сеппи во втором раунде уступил Рафаэлю Надалю, а в парах смог выйти в четвертьфинал совместно с Фабио Фоньини. До конца сезона он ещё раз вышел в 1/4 финала на турнире в Антверпене.

В январе 2017 года Сеппи в матче второго раунда Открытого чемпионата Австралии одержал сложную победу над № 13 в мире Ником Кирьосом — 1-6, 6-7(1), 6-4, 6-2, 10-8. В четвёртом раунде на трёх тай-брейках он проиграл Стэну Вавринке. В июне итальянец смог выйти в полуфинал турнира в Анталье.

2018—2019

Второй год подряд Андреас Сеппи на Открытом чемпионате Австралии доходит до четвёртого круг, где проиграл Кайлу Эдмунду из Великобритании.

В начале января 2019 года на турнире в Сиднее, итальянец сумел добраться до финала, в котором уступил в двух сетах более молодому австралийцу Алексу де Минору. На Открытом чемпионате Австралии дошёл до 3 круга, где проиграл американцу Фрэнсису Тиафо. В начале февраля выиграл оба матча Кубка Дэвиса против сборной Индии. На турнире в Делрей-Бич (США) дошёл до четвертьфинала, где уступил Дэниелю Эвансу из Великобритании в двух сетах. В октябре 2019 года дошёл до полуфинала Кубка Кремля, но проиграл французу Адриану Маннарино.

Ester Dean: 'I Can't Make You Love Me'
October 19, 2012 / 16 Comments
After having spent the last several years writing hit singles for some of music's biggest names, five-time Grammy Award nominated, Ester Dean, one of the music industry's most in-demand songwriters, is finally ready to step into the spotlight with the release of her new single "I Can't Make You Love Me." The cover originally recorded by Bonnie Raitt will be the lead single off Ester's debut Interscope Records EP, due out early next year. Set over a synth-heavy dance beat, "I Can't Make You Love Me" is more of an explosive revamp than just a straight-up cover. It's undeniably a club banga and serves as a perfect introduction for anyone still unaware of the fierce newcomer. What do you guys think?

"One of the music industry's most in-demand songwriters" released a cover as her first single. Lame.
bLaine kelley
completely agree!!! wtf?!?!
The Music Prophet
I agree … But I love the song! If anything I'd use this as a promo … Not an official lead… But time will tell!
@The MUSIC PROPHET … totally agree with you. Should be a promo single and not the offical lead single… I think her lead debut needs to be something FIERCE by Dr. Luke and/or Stargate. Because let's face it, they make hits!
Lame.
Squigster
I agree. Leave the covers alone and be original on your debut single.
Kalvin
I like it but I wonder why she didn't just write her own song for her debut single…seems alil weird to me.
cascada called. she wants her schtick back
This is just plain ironic. Wtf?
I have to agree…I can't understand how an industry heavyweight would choose to do a simple cover as her introduction…the Cascada comment is spot on.
sambaya
this is tanks song 'can't make you love me'….i actually love this version so i'm not going to agree uall
This is not Tank's song. Wtf. Tank covered it.
Anyways, I actually like this version. It's funny how some of the people commenting think artists who aren't already well established (not just as song writers) have a ton of choice in what their single is going to be. Noobs.
What about "Drop It Low (featuring Chris Brown)" single / video that came out last year? Technically, that would have been her 1st single which was an original song. This song is blah just like all of the other similar sounding songs being released now.
You would think one of the industry's most in-demand writers could write herself an original for her debut.
Guess not though lol.
Please fix the link !

3rd ODI (D/N), New Zealand tour of India at Kanpur, Oct 29 2017
331/7 (50 ov)
India won by 6 runs
Rohit SharmaIndia
Hawk-EyeHawk-Eye
Bumrah, Kohli, Rohit keep India's streak going
The Report by Karthik Krishnaswamy
India 337 for 6 (Rohit 147, Kohli 113, Santner 2-58) beat New Zealand 331 for 7 (Munro 75, Latham 65, Williamson 64, Bumrah 3-47, Chahal 2-47) by six runs
Scorecard and ball-by-ball details
Agarkar: India would feel they got out of jail
India beat New Zealand by six runs to seal the three-match ODI series 2-1 in Kanpur
Elation, after a seventh straight bilateral ODI series win, for India. Heartbreak for a New Zealand side that has been among the best prepared and most tenacious limited-overs teams to visit the country in recent years. Why is this only a three-match series?
New Zealand came to Kanpur with a poor record in ODI deciders in India. In each of their three previous attempts, their batting had let them down: they fell short of 200 in both 1995 and 1999 and, on this day last year, imploded to 79 all out.
It's not the proudest record, and on Sunday New Zealand were set quite a task to break their decider duck in India. With Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli scoring hundreds and becoming the first ODI pair to combine in four double-century stands, India set them 338 to win. They had only completed two bigger successful chases.
That set the stage for the two teams to trade punch and counter-punch in a riveting microcosm of the entire series.
Colin Munro set things rolling by stepping out and carting the third ball of the innings over the midwicket boundary. The next three balls disappeared for fours, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar - steady, dependable Bhuvneshwar Kumar - was dazed and bemused. Trying to somehow cramp Munro for room with round-the-wicket bouncers, he sent down three wides in his third over, and by the end of his first spell was nursing figures of 0 for 51 in five.
But at the other end, Jasprit Bumrah kept things sane, extracting whatever little help a flat Green Park pitch could give him by hitting it hard with maximum backspin or, in the case of his slower offcutter, sidespin. His first spell read 4-0-12-1, Martin Guptill an excellent choice for 50th ODI wicket.

New Zealand remained on track, with Munro and Kane Williamson adding 109 for the second wicket and moving the score to 153 for 1 in the 25th over. The counter-punch, this time, came from Yuzvendra Chahal, the only other bowler apart from Bumrah to get something out of the surface. He did this by means of hard-spun legbreaks - one drifted away from Munro and broke back in to bowl him through the gate, the other, dangled slower and wider, forced Williamson to miscue a slog-sweep. New Zealand, suddenly, were 168 for 3.
Enter Tom Latham, New Zealand's most improved and most impressive batsman on this tour. In Mumbai he had swept his way to a match-winning hundred; his innings here was perhaps even better, showcasing not just deftness against spin but also pristine timing against the fast bowlers, particularly square on the off side and off his legs. He dominated a 79-run stand with Ross Taylor, and then added 59, off just 40 balls, with the scrappy and highly effective Henry Nicholls.
When Bhuvneshwar, producing the perfect yorker on a day when little else went right for him, ended that stand, New Zealand needed 32 off 19 to win. Not the worst time for your biggest hitter to walk in.
Except it wasn't to be Colin de Grandhomme's day; his indecision played a part in Latham being run out for 65 off 52, and he didn't seem to have his hitting gloves on either. With Bhuvneshwar and Bumrah landing a dew-sodden ball there or thereabouts in the closing overs, the target slipped away from New Zealand's reach. It came down to 15 off the last over, but they were never going to get it against Bumrah in this sort of form.
New Zealand could have been chasing significantly more than 338 had their bowlers not pulled India back through the last 10 overs, in which they took five wickets while conceding only 85.
Three of those were the result of catches at long-off - a not insignificant detail, for it encapsulated the value of the fifth boundary fielder in the third Powerplay. In the last five overs of the second Powerplay, when mid-off was usually inside the circle, Rohit and Kohli had hit six fours and a six in the arc between deep extra-cover and long-off. India scored 56 in that five-over period, and Kohli and Rohit looked unstoppable.
In his 28th match, Jasprit Bumrah became the second fastest Indian to 50 wickets BCCI
But the relaxation of field restrictions gave New Zealand a bit more control. Rohit and Hardik Pandya fell to Mitchell Santner's changes of pace and trajectory while going for big hits, while a Tim Southee slower ball undid Kohli's attempt at clearing long-off. Between the end of the 40th over and Kohli's dismissal, India had only managed three boundaries. MS Dhoni and Kedar Jadhav manufactured three fours and a six thereafter, and India picked up 35 off the last 20 legal balls of their innings. Those runs would prove quite handy.
Rohit and Kohli came together in the seventh over of India's innings, when Shikhar Dhawan spooned Southee to mid-off, and immediately gave the sense of settling themselves for a long stay.
Kohli looked in rare form right from the time he walked in, flicking an off-stump ball to the right of midwicket to get off the mark and then punching Southee through the gap between cover point and extra-cover, but despite this he slipped into a sidekick role, happy to get off strike and watch Rohit do his thing. He did, however, become the fastest player to 9000 runs in one-day cricket.
Rohit's innings contained all the classic Rohit ingredients - the back-foot punches, the front-foot pulls in front of square, the drives down the ground - and also a determination to rectify the mistakes of his previous two innings. He had been out playing across the line in the first two ODIs, and didn't repeat that mistake here. In the eighth over, for instance, he got a full, middle-and-leg ball from Trent Boult, similar to the one he flicked in the air in Pune, only this time he showed the full face of the bat and picked up four to the left of mid-on.
Once he got his eye in, boundaries flowed to all parts. The fifty came up off 52 balls, the hundred off 106, and with Kohli following in his slipstream a total in the 350-370 range looked possible. India didn't get that far, but they eventually got far enough. Just about.
Sustained pressure helps India break pattern
India's tendency to lose while defending big totals in good batting conditions was halted in Kanpur because of small changes at crucial junctures
New Zealand captain pleased with fight shown despite losing a second successive ODI series decider in India
Kohli, Rohit and record double century stands
Individually and as a pair, Kohli and Rohit continue to rack up astonishing numbers

Floral tributes have been left in memory of a young man who died in a motorbike crash.
More than half a dozen bunches of flowers have been tied to a post at the spot where Ainsley Martin tragically lost his life on Monday evening.
The 21-year-old, from Delabole, was involved in a single-vehicle collision late on Monday evening on High Street, Camelford.
Members of the local community have left several bouquets of flowers at the scene of the tragedy.

A touching message left on one card reads: "Sadly missed. Rest easy."
Ainsley Martin
Ainsley's mother has thanked the local community for its support and all those who tried to save her son.
In a post on the Facebook page lovecamelford, Julie Martin Evans, paid tribute to the emergency services and people who left flowers at the scene.
Cornwall birth centre closed for major refurbishment
"We just wanted to say thank you to people who have placed flowers in Camelford where our son sadly died," Julie wrote.
"Ainsley Martin would have been chuffed that anybody cared that much. He had many mental struggles but all he ever wanted was a true friend that didn't need to be bought with a pint and job.
"I would also like to thank the people at the scene from the bottom of my heart, I know [they] did what they could but it was too late.
"So thank you from both of us we are grateful to the good people of Camelford."
Specialist paramedics rushed to the scene shortly after 11.30pm.
Officers from the Roads Policing Team and a Forensic Collision Investigator also attended and the road was closed for several hours whilst a specialist examination took place.
Devon and Cornwall Police are asking any witnesses to the incident to contact them on 101, or email 101@dc.police.uk, quoting log number 994 of 27/05/19.

Catalonia's leader has accused Madrid of imposing a "de facto state of emergency" in the Spanish region and said the arrests were a "shameful attack" on its autonomy.
"We condemn and reject the anti-democratic and totalitarian actions of the Spanish state," Catalan President Carles Puigdemont said in a televised address.
Among those detained are Josep Maria Jove, the Catalonian secretary general of economic affairs, and Vice President Oriol Junqueras.
The region is seeking a vote to secede from Spain on 1 October.
Recent crackdowns have included forcing internet service providers to block access to websites advertising the vote, and Spanish authorities are seeking to prevent voting cards being posted out.
Hundreds of protesters gathered outside the regional government offices in the centre of Barcelona's tourist district following the arrests.
According to Sky sources, three government yachts with members of the Policia Nacional, the primary anti-riot body in Spain, have docked in Barcelona.
The Spanish interior ministry has said all time off and vacation will be suspended for Policia Nacional and Guardia Civil members stationed in Catalonia until 5 October.
"They are basically occupying the streets with cops," one Barcelona resident told Sky News.
Barcelona football club has condemned the actions of the police, saying the club supports the right to free expression.
But Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy has described the independence movement as intolerable.
"There's no democratic state in the world that would accept what these people are planning," he said.
And foreign minister Alfonso Dastis told Bloomberg that referendums were the "weapon of choice of dictators".
The Spanish government is backed by the nation's constitutional court in declaring the referendum illegal.
Catalonian secessionists complain that appointments to the court are made by the largest political parties in Madrid, and are therefore not independent.


The poly(A) tail at 3' ends of eukaryotic mRNAs promotes their nuclear export, stability and translational efficiency, and changes in its length can strongly impact gene expression. The Arabidopsis thaliana genome encodes three canonical nuclear poly(A) polymerases, PAPS1, PAPS2 and PAPS4. As shown by their different mutant phenotypes, these three isoforms are functionally specialized, with PAPS1 modifying organ growth and suppressing a constitutive immune response. However, the molecular basis of this specialization is largely unknown. Here, we have estimated poly(A)-tail lengths on a transcriptome-wide scale in wild-type and paps1 mutants. This identified categories of genes as particularly strongly affected in paps1 mutants, including genes encoding ribosomal proteins, cell-division factors and major carbohydrate-metabolic proteins. We experimentally verified two novel functions of PAPS1 in ribosome biogenesis and redox homoeostasis that were predicted based on the analysis of poly(A)-tail length changes in paps1 mutants. When overlaying the PAPS1-dependent effects observed here with coexpression analysis based on independent microarray data, the two clusters of transcripts that are most closely coexpressed with PAPS1 show the strongest change in poly(A)-tail length and transcript abundance in paps1 mutants in our analysis. This suggests that their coexpression reflects at least partly the preferential polyadenylation of these transcripts by PAPS1 versus the other two poly(A)-polymerase isoforms. Thus, transcriptomewide analysis of poly(A)-tail lengths identifies novel biological functions and likely target transcripts for polyadenylation by PAPS1. Data integration with large-scale coexpression data suggests that changes in the relative activities of the isoforms are used as an endogenous mechanism to co-ordinately modulate plant gene expression.

Q: Expansion of inner product for polynomial kernel for SVMs On page 424 in "The Elements of Statistical Learning" by Hastie et al (2013) (https://web.stanford.edu/~hastie/Papers/ESLII.pdf), we see the following expansion of a polynomial kernel with degree 2:

I don't understand the second line in this expansion. Why is it possible to expand the inner product $\langle X, X^\prime\rangle$ to $X_1 X^\prime_1 + X_2 X_2^\prime$?

A: When it is the usual inner product we commonly use in linear algebra, i.e. $<x,y>=x^Ty$, and the vectors are of dimension $2$, you can write $$<x^Ty>=x_1y_1+x_2y_2$$, because in general we have $$x^Ty=\sum x_iy_i$$
Here, $x=X, y=X'$.


NEW ENGLAND - A survey conducted by Opinion Dynamics for the New England Energy Alliance found New Englanders have solid support for electricity and energy infrastructure development in the region.
Wind farms are preferred by an overwhelming majority and construction of LNG terminals shows substantial support. A narrow majority support transmission line construction as well as nuclear plant license renewal. However, support for constructing new nuclear plants and clean coal generating facilities remains mixed.
New England relies on nuclear energy plants to generate 27% of the region's electricity — the second largest source of supply. Supporters of nuclear energy point to the fact that this generating technology emits no greenhouse gases, has an excellent safety record, and 18 plants with evolutionary designs offering significant safety enhancements have recently applied for construction licenses outside of New England. Opponents say there is still no workable solution for disposing of nuclear waste, that the plants are very expensive to build, and that an accident cannot be ruled out.
Forty-eight percent (48%) of New Englanders surveyed said they at least somewhat favor the construction of new nuclear plants in the region. Men were found to favor new nuclear plant construction more so than women — 59% versus 38%. Republican respondents were more supportive — 61% compared to 50% of Independents and 39% of Democrats. New Hampshire survey respondents were found to be the most supportive, where 60% of those surveyed were at least somewhat in favor of new nuclear plant construction.
The 40-year license term of nuclear plants was originally established to reflect the amortization period that was traditionally used by electric utility companies for large capital investment — and not on a facility's anticipated operating life, which is longer.
The NRC formally reviews all license renewal applications in a stringent process that can last up to three years. To date, the NRC has approved license renewal for dozens of plants including Millstone Units 2 and 3 in Connecticut. License renewal applications of both Pilgrim in Massachusetts and Vermont Yankee are undergoing review as the operating licenses for those plants will expire in 2012.
License renewal supporters point to the fact that nuclear plants are operating better than ever, must meet rigorous regulatory inspection requirements to gain renewal, and they don't contribute to global warming. Opponents argue that nuclear technology is out-dated and older plants are too dangerous to continue operating.
For decades, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) has been vital in maintaining a balance between the region's natural gas supply and demand. LNG is delivered by tanker from the Caribbean country of Trinidad and Tobago through Boston Harbor to the Distrigas terminal in Everett. Offshore deepwater LNG ports in New England include the recently completed Northeast Gateway facility located off Cape Ann, Massachusetts and the Neptune LNG port, being built approximately 10 miles off the coast of Gloucester, Massachusetts.
Supporters of LNG terminals point to the fact that LNG currently supplies 30% of the region's natural gas on a cold winter day, has a proven track record of safety all over the world, and that we need to expand supplies of natural gas. Opponents point to safety concerns like vulnerability to a terrorist threat.
Sixty-five percent (65%) of New Englanders surveyed are in favor of building new LNG facilities in the region — with 35% strongly in favor. Survey respondents in Rhode Island seemed to be the most supportive — with almost 70% at least somewhat in favor.
Technology advancements along with federal and state subsidies have enabled wind-generating facilities to produce electricity that is now cost competitive with other sources of generation. Wind facilities have no fuel costs, but they do have maintenance and capital development costs that must be recovered over periods of intermittent operation (as electricity generation can be highly variable depending on wind speeds).
Wind generation currently comprises less than 1% of New England's electricity supply. Because the best locations for wind generation tend to be in scenic mountain and ocean-side areas, the siting of turbines has often proven to be controversial. About two-thirds of New Englanders remain concerned that the Cape Wind project has been blocked by a "not in my backyard" attitude.
Supporters of large wind farms say that they don't emit greenhouse gases, the wind is free and unlimited, and new advances in technology make this a more viable source of electricity supply. Opponents point to the fact that wind farms are aesthetically unappealing, they are expensive — even with taxpayer subsidies — and that they only operate about 30% to 40% of the time.
Eighty-four percent (84%) of survey respondents said they are in favor of constructing large wind farms. Overall favorability remained the same as last year — but the "strongly favor" portion increased by 10 percentage points to 61%. In terms of favorability, there seems to be no difference between the desirability of small land-based versus large off-shore wind farms. The public simply seems to strongly like wind energy in general.
Coal plants currently generate about 11% of New England's electricity. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been invested in the region in emission control equipment, to significantly reduce the by-products of coal combustion including sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and particulate emissions. Coal burning, however, does produce significant carbon dioxide emissions, a leading global warming gas.
Clean coal is chemically washed of impurities or gasified, burned and then treated with steam to remove sulfur dioxide and re-burned so as to make the carbon dioxide in the flue gas recoverable. The Brayton Point Station located in Somerset, Massachusetts is hosting a pilot-scale clean coal gasification plant — to demonstrate the conversion of coal into natural gas. The process prevents the release of carbon dioxide and captures other by-products.
Clean coal supporters point to the fact that clean coal plants reduce greenhouse gas emissions by about 50% from existing technology, it is a low-cost domestic source of fuel, and the plants are easy to build and operate. Opponents say clean coal plants still produce considerable amounts of greenhouse gases, and that mining coal damages the environment.
Fortynine (49%) of survey respondents said they favor building clean coal plants in New England — with 26% strongly in favor. Republicans seem more inclined to support clean coal facilities — with 71% at least somewhat in favor of them, compared to only 40% of Democrats and 49% of Independents. Survey respondents in Rhode Island were the most supportive — with 61% at least somewhat in favor.
The region's transmission system serves two vital roles: to ensure reliable delivery of electricity from power plants to where it is needed, and to facilitate the trading and delivery of the commodity in the region's wholesale market. Without a reliable and efficient transmission system to move electricity as a tradable commodity, the ability to meet electricity demand reliably and economically is diminished. Over the past few years, significant progress has been made to expand and upgrade the region's transmission system. But more is needed.
Supporters say congestion on existing transmission lines costs consumers hundreds of millions of dollars each year and jeopardizes reliability, and that new lines would solve this. In addition, new lines could bring in electricity generated by renewable hydroelectric and wind facilities in Canada as well as from wind farms located in the Midwest.
Opponents say transmission lines are aesthetically unappealing; require rights of way through many communities, pose health risks, and their expensive construction could be avoided if we simply reduce our use of electricity.
Sixty percent (60%) of respondents said they at least somewhat favor the construction of new transmission lines in the region, with support strongest in Maine and Rhode Island — both at 67%.

Most Alaska folks don't often think of a tooth as a body part that fluctuates in strength. Our teeth seem to have a steady hardness and dependably grind food whenever we need them. However, teeth are dynamic organisms with chemical processes that occur continually.
At Excellence In Dentistry, we are noticing an increase in cases of serious acid erosion. It is apparent that the typical Alaska diet is becoming more acidic.
Now let's talk about drinks. You probably already know that soda pop and wine are not good for your teeth. Alaska teens that sip soda all day can have acid erosion while their young teeth should be at their strongest. In addition to soda, energy drinks are very popular in Alaska and cosmetic dentists are noticing the effects on their dental patients' tooth enamel.
If your teeth have become more sensitive in general, or in response to hot or cold foods or beverages, you may have acid erosion. To schedule an examination with Dr. Kirk Johnson at Excellence In Dentistry, call (907) 349-0022 today. We can use digital x-rays to assess the condition of your teeth and recommend treatment that will keep your enamel healthy and strong.
We are a full-service cosmetic dental office with hundreds of satisfied clients in Alaska. We offer a variety of dental procedures including dental implants, clear braces, sedation dentistry and tooth whitening. We are located at 1000 Omalley Rd, Ste 101 in Anchorage. We are working to raise awareness of the oral health dangers of acid erosion. We hope you have benefited from this Excellence In Dentistry blog article and look forward to your visit.


With the support of his interdisciplinary studio, Olafur Eliasson produces epic, technically sophisticated sculptures and installations, using natural elements like light, water, and air to alter viewers' sensory perceptions. From 120 foot tall waterfalls floating above New York's East River to chunks of arctic ice installed in a Parisian plaza, his immersive environments, public installations, and architectural projects are motivated by the belief that art has the power to make viewers think differently about the world. Expanding the role of the artist, Eliasson contemplates how art can function as a "civic muscle," offering solutions to global problems like climate change and renewable energy.

When you're an aeronautical engineer: How much will you earn
A chemical engineer's career can be as lucrative as a medical doctor's.
But, with some exceptions, most of the salaries offered for this career are paid at a much lower rate than those of a medical officer.
Photo: Supplied The key to getting the most out of a career as an aerostatic engineer is knowing how to market yourself, according to research published today by research consultancy firm Ipsos.
In the past year, the firm has tracked more than 7,000 careers across a wide range of industries.
"There's a whole range of things that can help you out, so I'm not going to list them all, but they include the way you show off your qualifications, how you approach your job and how you communicate with colleagues," Ipsos managing director Mark Stroud said.
For example, the company said it would offer an "airborne experience" for those who want to fly commercial cargo or deliver medicine.
"Airborne experience involves a small number of people travelling at a very low altitude and flying a helicopter.
It is not as glamorous as a flight of a helicopter or commercial airliner but it is very high-risk, high-reward," Mr Stroud explained.
"It's very easy to get into.
What is a chemical engineer? "
But it is also not one that you want to leave on your doorstep."
A chemical engineering job is an engineering and science discipline that focuses on developing and designing new materials and products.
This is usually a research-oriented role and usually involves the development and production of chemical compounds, such as compounds for new chemicals.
A chemical chemist or a chemical engineering researcher is a person who develops and develops chemical compounds.
Chemicals are usually produced by combining two or more chemicals to produce a compound.
The work involves a large amount of research and often involves the use of laboratory equipment.
Chemists work on chemical compounds to develop new chemicals for use in pharmaceutical, biotechnology and other products.
A biochemist or biophysicist is a scientist who studies the structure and function of biological systems and who is interested in the biological functions of a particular organism.
A chemist is also an engineer.
The roles are often similar to those of chemical engineers, but with a greater emphasis on the use and application of technology.
The key skills to have include: working with a large number of different types of chemicals and their reactions

Unlocking the Growth Trust
Culture of Invitation
The Trust has been founded to educate the Christian church in seeking to encourage the mobilisation of every church member to invite.
Unlocking the Growth Seminars seek to bring into the light the way the church of today thinks and how that thinking is locking down the growth of God. Michael Harvey is a co-founder of Back to Church Sunday in the UK and developed the concept of invitation as a mission tool across seventeen countries. It is estimated that 1 million invitations have been offered and thousands of people have been added to the church. Ten years of research in the area of becoming not just a welcoming but an inviting church has revealed some stunning findings that every church leader needs to know, but at the moment doesn't know! The Seminars include emotional, mental and practical tools to enhance the practice of invitation. Do look on the seminar details page for more information.
The Trust will seek to encourage people to give financially to the work so that countries not yet reached may see thousands of people discover and rediscover a relationship with God.

The statistics show that an average time from calling for help to the arrival of emergency services to the scene of an accident is 8 minutes in a city and about 15 minutes outside the city. Although this is a very short response time, as emphasized by rescuers, in many cases, the injured persons' chances of survival depend on the witnesses and the first aid they can provide before the ambulance reaches the scene. Unfortunately, many of us are still unable to give first aid, which is why to continue educate people is so vital. The organizers of the "Safe Company" Medical Rescue Championships realize it very well and have trained employees on first aid for many years. During the 10th Anniversary Championships, the participants have learned about the significance of the 10 platinum minutes for life.
Statistically, it would be possible to save a half of the people who are in a medical emergency, if witnesses to the events did not wait for an ambulance, but gave first aid on their own. In many cases, such help may be decisive for the chances an injured person has to survive. Performing even the simplest rescue activities increases the injured person's chances to live.
Unfortunately, Poles' activity in terms of first aid is unsatisfactory. Compared to other European countries, we fall far behind. For example, in Europe, about 40% of people with a cardiac arrest fully recover because they receive first aid at the place of an accident. In Poland, this rate is only 4%.
According to the experts, although the first aid statistics for Poland are still below expectations, every year the first aid awareness is gradually increasing. There is also a raise in the number of participants in professional trainings and courses. As emphasized by the organizers of the "Safe Company" Championships, big companies more and more frequently recognize the need for such services.
Companies become increasingly interested in training their employees on first aid. Every year, many representatives from different companies participate in the "Safe Company" medical rescue championships. In the previous years, we have had the opportunity to train over 1,500 people.
Our partners emphasize that the first premedical aid training, apart from its advantages for employees, is also an important element of their business social responsibility and of building a positive image of their companies.

Mykala M. Bator was charged by St. Clair County prosecutors Saturday with felony retail theft over $300, felony possession of a controlled substance and a misdemeanor charge of endangering a child. She is accused of shoplifting from Kohl's around 4:55 p.m.
According to the police report, a loss-prevention officer at Kohl's confronted Bator outside the store on suspicion of shoplifting merchandise. She had a 1-year-old infant with her during the incident and when confronted, she ran to a waiting vehicle, tossed the child into the back seat of the car through an open window, and fled the scene as a passenger in the car.
Yes, the lady threw her one-year-old child through an open window. The kid could have suffered a brain injury. The Juice is angry.
Luckily … The child was not injured, according to Fairview Heights Police Lt. Steve Evans.
Whew. You'll find a mug shot here.


Lets start this step with some simple line shapes. Look at the image and and position the lines exactly how they are shown. There are four lines going across, and three lines going down. These guidelines will allow you to draw the 67 Shelby alot easier.
Now what you want to do here in this step is sketch out and draw the top half of the car using the guidelines you drew. As you can see if you follow the directions this way you should no problem sketching this image.
Now this is where the sketch starts to take more shape. After you draw the hood and roof of the car, start sketching out the front fender, side panels, rear fender, and the outlines for the driver side window. Detail the side panel of the Shelby by drawing a straight line starting right above the front tire, and ending right at the lip of the window frame. Before going onto the next step draw two circles for the tires.
In this step i suggest that you enlarge the image. One thing about the 67 Shelby Mustang is that the body has pocked grooves all over the car, but fortunatly you will only have to sketch out a couple. Right at the end of the door where the handle will be, there is a pocket in the shape of a half square, draw it. Detail the whole side of the car in this step by sketching out the fenders, bumper, passenger side window, tires, and the beginning stripes for the GT500 logo.
Here in this step what you will be doing is detailing the tires and the BF Goodrich tires. This is probably one of the hardest parts to draw in the entire sketch because the letters are so small and the rims are very detailed. Finish off the side stripes on the lower part of the door and sketch in GT500. As you can see the Shelby Mustang is a good looking vehicle. Before moving to the next step draw the door handle.
This is your finished sketch. All you have to do is erase the guidelines and sketch marks made with your pencil. You can color the Shelby Mustang any color you want, I think a nice cherry red or bright blue would look good, but hey that's your choice. The steps below show you how to color your car in adobe photoshop cs. It will show you how to create the shine that is added to the car . Take a look you might learn something new.
First color your car anyway you want. Do this on a separate layer beneath the line art layer. When you're finished coloring the mustang car, select the dodge tool and duplicate your color layer. This will prevent you from making mistakes. If you make a mistake on the only color layer you have, you will have to recolor the colors again. This is reason because with the dodge tool, it highlights your colors. Now if you duplicate your color layer, and you make a mistake, you can delete the duplicated color layer and not have to recolor the colors.
Now, set your dodge tool to these settings. Set it to highlights and the opacity to 24%. This will give your 67 Shelby Mustang GT500 its shine. Remember do this on your duplicated layer, you don't want to do it on the original because you will not be able to modify your image easily the second time around. Lightly shine in parts of the car making it look freshly waxed and polished. You have to have a showroom shine to this piece of machinery.
For a more realistic shine, add smaller shine spots in that giant shine blotch. This will make it look like the sun is hitting it on a hot summers day. Can you fell the heat coming off it? I can and it burns. Now your car looks clean, shinny, and smooth! Always have you high performance vehicles looking like new. It should be an easy process because your the one learning to draw it. Have fun!
The 1967 Shelby Mustang GT-500 is by far one of the most awesome cars around. When you wanna talk about muscle cars, the 67 Shelby is always mentioned. Gone in 60 seconds has a bad Shelby made specifically for the movie, I think it cost like over 150 grand to replicate the original model. This machine came off the factory floor with a 355 horsepower engine. There is a lot more features about this sports car that I'm sure I don't know. Ford has come a long way since 1967, although I have to say I'm not too fond of there newer models at all they seem like cheap wanna be replicas. Mustangs came out with another bad machine, the 1986 SVO; they only made a handful, somewhere around 3,000 I think. Let's get back to talking about the 67 Shelby 500GT, for one they all came with the side strips that read either GT350 or GT500. Back in 1967, if you where looking to purchase the 67 Shelby you had two options to choose from, the GT350 which continued with the 271 horsepower 289 hi-pro, which came with hi-rise aluminum Cobra intakes. Four speeds used 715 cfm Holley's, and the automatics used the 595 cfm. Now with the GT500s, Ford debut the cars with a 428 police interceptor to all Shelby models. The 67 Shelby came with two Holly 600 cfm 4 barrels, and on top of the carburetors there was a finned oval cobra air cleaner to enhance the air intake to help maximize power. The fact remains that this car was and still is a high performance vehicle, and if I could buy one I would, but since I can't all I can do is draw one of my own. This tutorial shows you "how to draw a Ford Mustang". I included detailed step by step instructions on how to draw this model and also how to color the car in adobe Photoshop CS. I know you will have fun with this sketch.

So what's it going to be tonight? The Cubs & Dodgers showdown or the presidential debate? It's all about playoff baseball at my house, just to keep the peace. Did you know that the matchup between John Lackey and Julio Urías is one of the largest age gaps between opposing starters during a postseason game (17 years, 294 days)? Hardly anybody predicted it would happen this way, but the Dodgers are carrying a lot of momentum with last night's victory. There are a lot of Cubs, Dodgers and Indians fans here at EP Minerals, along with several disgruntled San Francisco Giants' fans (the Dodgers' arch enemy)--leading to quite a bit of smack talk.
But, there isn't any smack talk about our Groundskeeper's Choice baseball infield conditioners and products! Only a lot of endorsements for our complete line of 100% natural, high-performance super calcined clay solutions.
We're sure getting some rave reviews on our infield conditioner products from happy customers.
"BallGame Changer with KT3 is a revolutionary clay infield conditioner," said Kitchens. "KT3 is a surface technology that changes how the BallGame Changer product interacts with water. You can apply the normal amount of water and conditioner with BallGame Changer as you use today and maintain a higher moisture level for nine innings, reducing dust and additional maintenance factors," he added.
PlayBall! comes in a drying agent, mound clay, and conditioner. All of the Groundskeeper's Choice infield products are designed to last longer, reduce dust and water usage, and provide better traction for safer playability.
Batter up! The Indians face the Blue Jays in about an hour. Let's get ready for some baseball!


It's a big, ambitious vision: implementing common-sense chemical policies, building markets for the safest products, taking stubborn polluters to court, and changing how business does business.
To protect your family's health, we're challenging the powerful chemical industry and its armies of well-paid lawyers, lobbyists, and PR spin masters. It's a battle that requires a staff of experts in science, public health, and business. It's also one that requires the right mix of strategies and a smart, thoughtful plan that makes the best possible use of our resources.
Building the mandate for common-sense chemical regulations that push businesses to test the safety of their chemicals, disclose the data, and use the safest chemicals available.
Creating incentives for safer energy sources that promote the health of children, families, workers, and communities.
Protecting people nationwide from immediate toxic threats by enforcing current laws.
Expanding the use of safer and environmentally friendly materials as replacements for toxic plastics used in food containers and food packaging.
Ending the use of toxic flame retardant chemicals in furniture and baby products.
Political Will – The development of political will to make environmental health a priority as part of building healthy communities and a healthy economy.
Cultural Shift – The shift, through increased public awareness and engagement, to a culture that values health over short-term profit.
Market Incentives – The creation of market incentives that show businesses that it is in their short-term and long-term interest to protect children, families, workers, and communities from toxic chemicals.
Public Policy – The creation and adoption of chemical regulations that foster the development and use of safer chemicals and products and the allocation of resources to enforce and implement those policies in way that actually protects families from toxic chemicals.
Business Practices – The development of business practices that don't harm people or the environment, and the demonstration of the bottom-line benefit of those practices.


"Plasma Deposition of Amorphous Free Microcrystalline Silicon Films Thinner than 20 nm"

Highly crystallised, thin p-type silicon films are deposited by very high frequency plasma-enhanced CVD. Under high H2 dilution conditions, the effect of chamber contamination is shown to have consequences on the microcrystalline (µc) fraction and electrical characteristics of the deposited films. In view of applications on heterojunction solar cells, p/i double layers a re deposited on silicon and on glass. Optical characterisation shows that the µc fraction is much larger on silicon substrate. A 15 nm amorphous buffer layer deposited on silicon is observed to completely recrystallise upon p-type µc-Si deposition, which is attributed to the effect of undetectable crystalline seeds in the amorphous phase.

Cutting Through the Confusion of Sales Comp Plans
by MSP Business School | Sep 21, 2021 | Sales
When it comes to paying salespeople, it can be difficult to determine the right split between guaranteed income and commission-based earnings. In this episode, the hosts lay out their approach to building sales compensation plans.
As a business owner, it's important to ensure you're attracting top talent while remaining profitable, and knowing whether you're paying your salespeople too much or not enough can be challenging to work out on your own.
Brian asks Tim and Robb to share from their experiences of helping MSP owners devise these structures, diving into the philosophy behind setting base pay, bonuses, and commissions.
2:07 – Tim provides a quick overview of how he and Robb structure a sales person's compensation, highlighting the difference in comps between one-year contracts and two-year contracts.
5:27 – Brian asks Tim and Robb to expand on their reasoning behind the way they handle one-year contract commissions. The guys discuss the importance of adopting a two-year contract minimum from a business perspective.
11:32 – Tim and Robb share their success benchmarks for a sales person, starting with expectations for new hires and moving into what they believe quotas should be for established salespeople. Brian asks them about evaluating a new salesperson's effectiveness and ability at the 90-day mark, and they break down what an owner should see from a new hire at four months, five months, six months, and beyond.
16:54 – Tim lays out how to shift the compensation structure for companies that outsource lead generation and for those times when an owner – or someone else in the company – hands a prospect to a sales person.
20:18 – The guys calculate how much an MSP salesperson should be making annually with a base salary of $40,000, sharing that if they continually fill their pipeline properly and stay on target with closed deals, they could easily be making six figures in their second year. Tim and Robb wrap up the episode with a reminder that a salesperson should be able to figure out their commission in about five minutes, otherwise the compensation structure is too complicated and should be revised.

Erik Benzelius the younger (27 January 1675 in Uppsala – 23 September 1743) was a priest, theologian, librarian, bishop of Linköping, 1731–1742 and Archbishop of Uppsala, Sweden, 1742–1743. He was a highly learned man and one of Sweden's important Enlightenment figures.

Biography
He was the son of Erik Benzelius the elder. The elder Erik also held the office of archbishop, he was a most learned man who had studied in universities around Europe and he was also a professor of theology at the University of Uppsala.

Like his father, the young Erik first studied at Uppsala and in 1697 with a Royal scholarship undertook a three year long educational journey through Europe. The academic world had grown in importance as had the sciences, and many notable people were found at the universities in Europe. Erik met among others Leibniz and Malebranche. He also spent a great deal of time studying books and scripts from large, old libraries.  He bought or copied several of them.

Returning to Uppsala in 1700, he was appointed librarian at the University of Uppsala. He was fond of books and worked to expand the library's collection.  Then he studied to be a priest and was ordained in 1709. He also constantly kept in contact with learned men from Europe and in Uppsala. These included botanists, mathematicians, historians and scientists of other faculties. The correspondence have been kept and were published after his death.

Benzelius married Anna Svedberg in 1703. She was daughter of the Swedish clergyman Jesper Swedberg and sister of the scientist (and later mystic) Emanuel Swedenborg. Erik was a benefactor of Emanuel, and perhaps the only person to pay due respect to his scientific discoveries. Erik was a supporter of all kinds of knowledge and discoveries. There is also evidence to suggest that he had contact with Johan Kemper a Kabbalist and Jewish convert to Christianity who also worked at the University of Uppsala. Some scholars see Kemper as a possible source for apparent Kabbalistic influences on Swedenborg's thought.

Benzelius' theology was marked by his father's orthodox beliefs and he wrote and published several books in theology, as well as in different sciences. For instance, he was the founder of the first scientific magazine in Sweden, Acta literaria Suecia, which existed from 1720 to 1739.

He was also an active member of the Swedish parliament, the Riksdag of the Estates, from 1723 to his death. And he was generally described as being interested in anything that might benefit his country.

In the Riksdag of 1738, he handed a letter of protest from the delegation from the Clergy Estate to Frederick I of Sweden, protesting of the monarch's adultery with Hedvig Taube: he was involved when the matter was raised again during the Riksdag of 1741.

He was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1740, and was its president in 1743.
