Legend of the Dragon is a series produced by BKN International for CBBC consisting of 39 episodes. A third season was cancelled, leaving the show on a cliffhanger.

Synopsis
The show starts when the previous Golden Dragon has passed on to the afterlife and Ang and Ling Leung, seventeen-year-old fraternal twins, born in the year of the Dragon, are next in line for the Golden Dragon power band and user of its mystical abilities to defend the mortal world from evil. Ang has no belief that he will become the Golden Dragon, as Ling is the best fighter at the Dragon dojo. Ling is positive that she will become the Golden Dragon. However, when Master Chin Ho calls upon the power of the Golden Dragon to choose who will be the next golden Dragon, it chooses Ang. Humiliated and furious, Ling storms out of the temple and is tempted by the ultimate dark and evil power of the shadow Dragon. From then on, Ang is forced to fight his own twin sister.

In episode twenty-six,"Double Dragon", Ling is overtaken by even greater shadow magic by the revived Emperor of the Darkest Yin, who orders her to win the mystical power-band of the Golden Dragon from Ang. However, Master Chin reveals to Ling that the only way for her to rightfully claim the power-band is to kill him. Horrified, Ling fully breaks free of the darkness that has overwhelmed her so long, as she cannot end her own twin brother. Impressed, Chin says how it was all a test for Ling to follow her true path. He explains that, as Ang's twin sister, she can now become a Golden Dragon herself. Chin merging both the positive and negative energies of the Golden Dragon power-band and the Shadow Dragon band bestows even greater Dragon firepower onto Ang and Ling as double/twin Golden Dragons; and are now twice as strong when they work together as one.

The second season (which consisted of just thirteen episodes) begins with the reformed Ling finally back home as one of the Twin Golden Dragon alongside her twin brother. Now they, Chin, and the fellow Guardians of the Tiger and Monkey Temples are ready to put an end to the Zodiac Master and the Emperor of the Darkest Yin once and for all. However, the Emperor is on the move to regroup at the Temple of the Shadow Dragon, but not before he attacks and disintegrates the Temple of the Golden Dragons, leaving Ang and Ling's powerbands on the verge of powerlessness permanently. Luckily, Chin suggests going to long-lost Temple of the Shadow Dragon and utilize its vast amounts of negative energy to re-energize their powerbands fully.

As Ling was exposed to the evil energies of the Shadow Dragon for quite some time, she became easily tempted by the temple's negative influence on both her mind and spirit. However, with the wisdom of Master Chin, she and Ang successfully recharge their powerbands with no negative effects whatsoever. Elsewhere, the Emperor manages to release his younger sister Yin Wi, the Guardian of the Shadow Rat, who had been imprisoned by one of the previous Golden Dragons for a thousand years. The two siblings concoct plans to conquer the modern world and have their vengeance on all twelve guardians of yang; the Golden Dragon in particular. As they head to the Temple of the Shadow Wolf, the heroes get there first and encounter K-Lo, the Shadow Wolf Guardian who was one of Ling's allies during her dark times as the Shadow Dragon and who seems to have quite an interest in her, now that she has become one of the twin Golden Dragons.

Ultimately, the Emperor of the Darkest Yin and Me Yin succeed in finding the ancient Heart of the Black Dragon which greatly amplifies their strength tenfold. As a last resort to save all of humanity, Ang and Ling activate the dormant mystical Heart of the Golden Dragon within themselves and turn into a gigantic red-and-yellow dragon with two heads. However, the Emperor and Yin Wi escape with the great mystical powers of the Heart of the Black Dragon still at their disposal.

Characters

Main characters
Ang Leung (voiced by Alan Marriott) is seventeen years old. He is highly accomplished in martial arts and knows of the ancient philosophies of the Golden Dragon, along with his twin sister, Ling. Ang has always thought that Ling would be the next Golden Dragon, mainly because she is the better fighter. They both go with Master Chin to the Dragon Temple to select the Temple's new Guardian: to the amazement of both twins, the Powerband selects Ang as the next Golden Dragon, not Ling. To power up, Ang must say "Empower the Dragon". His Powerband is gold colored with an orange-gold gemstone which makes him muscular, lets him shoot orange/gold fire blasts and fly ("Dragon Fire"). Ang is torn once he finds out that Ling has joined the Zodiac Master and become the Shadow Dragon. Throughout the first season, Ang tries again and again to bring Ling back to the light of yang, but Ling, though she does help him out from time to time, is still bent on getting his Powerband. Ang still strongly cares about her, even if she is working for Zodiac Master. In Season 2, Ling has become the second Golden Dragon making them "Double Golden Dragons". With new abilities, they can fly, teleport, as well as become a Dragon. Ang's best friends are Xuan Chi, Guardian of the Temple of the Monkeys, as well as Beingal, Guardian of the Temple of the Tigers. Ang likes computer games and music: in fact, he devotes much of his spare time to these activities.
Ling Leung (voiced by Larissa Murray) is seventeen years old. She is highly accomplished in martial arts and knowledgeable of the ancient philosophies of the Golden Dragon. She has a twin named Ang. Ling has always thought that, since she was the better fighter, she would be the next Golden Dragon. When Ang is selected, she is left filled with hatred, depression, anger and humiliation. After leaving the Dragon Dojo, Ling is approached by the Zodiac Master, who asks her to join him with the promise that he will make her a Dragon. Ling agrees and becomes the Shadow Dragon. Her first attack on Ang fails, as he defeats her with one energy blast: she sticks with the Zodiac Master, who is trying to gain at least four of the Powerbands (preferably all of them) and revive the Emperor of Darkest Yin. Ling still cares about her twin brother, even though they are now enemies by her choice. Ling loves animals and will never harm an innocent animal. Her allegiance to the Zodiac Master often wavers based on personal or family issues. Most of the time, she fights for him, but there are occasions when she helps Ang and his friends. To power-up, Ling must say, "Empower the Shadow Dragon". Her Powerband is a dark blue/gold color. Later, she also becomes a golden Dragon and returns to the side of good, this time when they are together they must say "Empower the Double Golden Dragon" to power up. Her powerband now looks just like Ang's. In the series finale, "The Heart of the Dragon," they can use their "Double Golden Dragon" powers to turn into a Dragon with two heads, a red body and a golden stomach. Ling's only romantic interest seems to be K-ho the Shadow wolf guardian. Whenever the team needs to split up, Ling is always willing to partner with K-ho. In the last episode, Ling is seen shopping for clothes that K-ho will find attractive.
Beingal (voiced by Lucy Porter first season, Elly Fairman second season) is the barefoot Guardian of the Temple of the Tiger. The Temple is hidden on an island far away, deep in the jungle behind a waterfall. The Temple is filled with Tiger statues down each side of the aisle. She is tough and when transformed, she can fire long nails from her hands to injure her enemies. She has fallen in love with Ang, getting very angry when another girl wants to steal Ang away. She is seen to be pretty by all the other temple guardians but Ang does not notice because he has always known her. Throughout the series, subtle hints that something is going to happen between her and Ang are given away. To Power up, Beingal must say, "Empower the Tiger". Her Powerband is green colored with a red/orange gemstone, gives her Tiger stripes, lets her fire her Tiger claws at her enemies and shoot green power blasts. All of the guardians can shoot power blasts which are the color of their powerbands gemstone. An exception is Beingal whose power blasts are green.
Xuan Chi (voiced by Marc Silk) is the barefoot Guardian of the Temple of the Monkey. He is the only Temple Guardian that does not wear his Powerband, mainly because Temple Raiders raided his Temple and supposedly took his band when they kidnapped him. He escaped from them and went to the Dragon Dojo for help. Later on, he travels back to his temple to discover his Powerband was always there. The Temple Raiders came back to take it, but they lost it and Xuan has since been on a wild goose chase for his Powerband, eventually managing to get it back from the Zodiac Master. During the two-part episode "The temple of the shadow Dragon" the Emperor of the Darkest Yin, the Zodiac Master and some backup attempt to destroy the Dragon temple so that no one will be able to defeat him in the future. When a power blast from the Emperor and the Double Golden Dragons hit Xuan Chi, the power from these blasts was enough to turn him into a Monkey. His Powerband is white colored with a light green gemstone and gives him extra agility. Xuan loves his bananas and often acts like a Monkey. He is sometimes seen by others as rude and stupid, but he has been Ang's best friend since they met. His role in the series is mostly comedy relief.
Master Chin Ho (voiced by Dan Russell) used to be the Guardian of the Temple of the Pig. He now runs a little dojo/school for younger people to be hopeful future Guardians, such as Ling, Ang and Beingal. He taught Ang and Ling as their personal mentor. He is skilled in fighting and often uses old proverbs to teach Ang and his friends. He teaches Ang how to be the Golden Dragon and how to improve his skills. He is always ready for every attack. Ironically, he taught Zodiac Master before he turned evil.
The Zodiac Master (voiced by Dan Russell) is the main antagonist in season 1 of Legend of the Dragon. He got demoted to a secondary villain when his evil master, the Emperor of the Darkest Yin, immediately took over and deposed his loyal underling to his place. The Zodiac Master's real name is Woo Yin. He was born in the year of the Snake and thought he was going to be the Snake Guardian. Ultimately, the Snake Powerband selected someone different, thus he chose the powers of the darkest yin as a result. His dream is to get all the Powerbands of the Chinese Zodiac, making him invincible. His main goal is clear: Get four Powerbands and revive the Emperor of the Darkest Yin. He mainly goes after the Snake Powerband since he feels it should be his. He has a pet Snake called King Cobra and uses it as a spy or to help him in fights. When empowering a stolen Powerband, like the Snake, he would normally say "Empower the Darkest Yin, Snake". He is always a great threat to every Guardian, but Ang the Golden Dragon often saves the day. On an interesting note, despite supposedly being very powerful, he is often easily defeated even in situations in which he has the clear advantage (such as having three Powerbands to Ang only using his Dragon Powerband).
The Emperor of the Darkest Yin (voiced by Gary Martin) is the main antagonist from Episodes 26-39 in a total of fourteen episodes. He was the previous shadow Dragon prior to Ling before being locked up and he also has a younger sister named Yin Wi, the shapeshifting Shadow Rat Guardian.
Lo Wang is the Guardian of the Temple of the Rooster, an excellent strategist. His appearance and voice are based upon a young Sean Connery. His Powerband color is white with a purple/blue gemstone and gives him armor that resembles a Rooster. His character is an obvious parody of James Bond.
Chow (voiced by Dan Russell) is the Guardian of the Temple of the Dog. His Powerband is gold colored with a purple/blue gemstone and gives him more body hair, longer claws and longer teeth.
Shoong is the Guardian of the Temple of the Pig. His Powerband is black colored with a light purple gemstone, makes him more muscular than fat and gives him armor. In one episode, Shoong appears to be Ang and Xuan Chi's Master.

Supporting
Ming (voiced by Lucy Porter) is the Guardian of the Temple of the Rat. Her Powerband is black colored with a deep pink gemstone and gives her a long plait like a Rat tail and long metal 'claws' and armour. She also has similar features to the Rat, such as the teeth and her ponytail looking very similar to a Rat tail. The Rat power-band allows Ming to change into whoever she wishes. However this transformation is not perfect as there is always something noticeable one can tell the difference (such as when she turned into a Snake the Gem was seen on the back of her neck, as well as when as Ang she still had her ponytail present). Her counterpart is the Shadow Rat, who happens to be the Yin Emperor's younger sister.
Robbie is the Guardian of the Temple of the Ox. An eight-year-old boy, but when he empowers the Ox, he turns into an older man. His Power-band is gold colored with an orange-pink gemstone and gives him armor with an Ox-horned helmet.
Billy is the current Guardian of the Temple of the Ram. His power-band is gold colored with a turquoise gemstone and makes him look half-Ram half-human with curly Ram horns and rock-like skin, he is able to create small earthquakes. Like all twelve Guardians, he has a natural spiritual connection with past Ram Guardians; such as Ang and Ling's (supposedly) late mother, Mae-Ying. To activate his power-band, he calls out Empower the Ram!.
Cobra (voiced by Larissa Murray) is the Guardian of the Temple of the Snake. Her Powerband is red colored with a bright yellow gemstone and gives her green, Snake-like skin, as well as venom and a very elasticated body.
Hye is the Guardian of the Temple of the Rabbit. Seeing as she cannot afford to allow herself strong emotions, she cannot quite feel anything much for Ang, but tells Beingal that she is Ang's comrade-in-arms, as well as that she can not ever be replaced. Her Powerband is green colored with an orange gemstone but she is never seen empowered. Her first appearance is in the episode "Sister Sister".
Mana-Ho is the Guardian of the Temple of the Horse. A tall blonde woman whose laugh is reminiscent of a Horse's whinny. Her powerband color is red colored with a blue gemstone but she is never seen empowered. However, in "The Last Dragon", the Zodiac Master empowers it along with the Ram band so it probably looks similar to that.
K-Ho (voiced by Alan Marriott) is the Guardian of the Temple of the Shadow Wolf. Ling seems to be head over heels for this handsome young man, but Ang, on the other hand seems to dislike this "Lone Wolf". K-ho shows some signs that he likes Ling but does not let it interfere with his concentration. He is, unlike most of the Shadow Guardians able to care about the universal balance, not taking over the world. In the later episodes K-ho teaches Ang and Ling skills to be better Dragons, teleporting in particular. His powerband is very similar to the old shadow Dragon band before it was turned to a golden Dragon band, with a dark bluish color. To power up, he must say "Empower the Shadow Wolf".
Yin Wi (voiced by Elly Fairman) is the Guardian of the Temple of the Shadow Rat and the Emperor's younger sister. She had been imprisoned for thousands of years by an unnamed Golden Dragon of the distant past.
Victor (voiced by Marc Silk (as human) and Dan Russell (as Shadow Ox)) is the Guardian of the Temple of the Shadow Ox. Like the light Ox guardian he is also a kid.
Chang Wo is the Guardian of the Temple of the Shadow Ape.
Sabre-Claw is the Guardian of the Temple of the Shadow Tiger. He is rather cocky but, loyal towards the Emperor of the Darkest Yin. He is convinced that the power of the tiger is the strongest force to come about. He will stop at nothing to obtain Beingal's power band to unite the power of the Tiger, thus doubling his own power.
The Jaguar God is an ancient Mayan god, possibly Bahlam, worshipped by Mayan kings and their subjects, further hinted to with his mortal/human form resembling a long dead Mayan king, which strongly believed in jaguars. He has two other forms which he can transform into without powering up the Shadow Tiger, and later, Tiger bands as well as switch back with ease. His first form is a powerful black/dark greyish-blue jaguar with no spots, slightly resembling the jaguar statue he was summonded/brought back to life from using the Shadow Tiger power band, with black outlined yellow eyes. His second form is a black/dark grey were-jaguar with black spots on the sides of his torso and no tail. He appears in the episode, "Spellbound", as well as falls in love with Beingal, hypnotizing her so that she becomes his queen consort.
Tex: He is the evil counterpart of the Guardian of the Horse, and is therefore Guardian of the Shadow Stallion Temple. It is not known if Tex is his real name or just an insulting nickname Yin Wi gave him. Similar to K-Ho, he does not want to join forces with the Emperor of the Darkest Yin or Yin Wi, seeming to care more about the universal order and concord.
Mae-Ying: Ang and Ling's mother and the loving wife of the previous Golden Dragon, whose first and last appearance is in Episode 24 Lost and Found. In her younger years, she was the Guardian of the Ram, where she frequently fought alongside the Golden Dragon against the Zodiac Master. In time, she fell madly in love with the powerful Guardian of the Dragon Temple, and he with her. After their marriage and giving birth to her twins Ang and Ling, she chose to step down as Guardian of the Ram to carry out her duties as wife and mother. She was attacked by the Zodiac Master and survived, but forever lost all memory of her husband and twin children. Master Chin had then hid her away to a far off land, where she has been caring for infant goats over the next seventeen years. Although she does not recall her earlier life as Guardian of the Ram Temple, the mystical powerband recognized her as its previous wearer and shielded her from the Zodiac Master's evil magic.
Mr. Leung: He was the previous Guardian of the Golden Dragon Temple, and defender of the world from the Zodiac Master and any other adversaries, whom his own twin son has now succeeded. He eventually befriended and, as time went on, fell in love with the Guardian of the Ram Temple, May Yin. As his twin children began training with Chin, he showed deep concern for their very lives, knowing that his enemies would try to use young Ang and Ling to get to him. Therefore, he had made Chin magically erase all recollection of him from his only children. In The Last Dragon he appeared before his twin son in a vision, telling him to "watch, listen and learn". The hard truth about his actions are revealed in flashbacks between Ang and Ling when they finally regain their childhood memories of their late father. His name remains unknown.

Track information can also be shared with Spotify, adding your vinyl plays to your recently listened to streams.
Vinyl records make big comeback in San Diego: "What some people would call imperfections are to me cool little attributes to listening to a record," said Eric Howard, a local record collector. "A crackle here a pop there." Howard has thousands of records, each in their individual protective sleeves, inside his southeast San Diego home. "Vinyl never went away for me and other people but its super cool to see people that didn't have that experience are into it now," said Howarth. Hundreds of record fanatics show up every month to the Casbah in Little Italy for its record swap. The event features dozens of local shops and collectors on display selling records for between $3 and more than $100 for rare editions.

Juliëtte van Duijnhoven, a postdoc researcher at Eindhoven University of Technology, interviewed Jennifer Veitch via Skype on 31st Jan 2020
What makes a good lighting researcher? We learn from Jennifer that a degree in chemistry and low project budgets are not necessarily a hindrance; what can help are a good PhD supervisor, inspirational colleagues and an ability to imagine crazy things.
Jennifer also reminds us of what is probably a common, but commonly ignored, problem in human factors research: "the interpretation of the participants was not what I initially expected it to be."
Aicha Diakite, a PhD student at Technical University Berlin, interviewed Martine Knoop.
What is the most fun: Shaping the new generation? Or creating new knowledge?
Martine tells us about her role models, the benefits of basketball and swimming, and the joy of spreadsheets.
Clotilde Pierson, a PhD student at Université Catholique de Louvain, interviewed Jan Wienold.
Conferences are an essential component of science. Jan describes how informal discussion with enthusiastic researchers can lead to new ideas, and suggests that difficult questions after a presentation can lead to better research.
Jan also raises an issue which should concern us all: "research in the last years is mainly focused on producing very fast results without focussing on the thoroughness".
Michael Kent, a researcher at the Berkeley Education Alliance for Research in Singapore, interviewed Peter Tregenza, formerly chairman of the Lighting Research and Technology editorial board and Head of the Sheffield University School of Architecture.
Peter Says "It is not calculations that are important, a machine can do those. You have got to answer the question 'What is actually happening here?"
Read the interview to find out more about his research achievements, his view on retirement, and the help he had from a winner of the Nobel Prize for economics.
Antonello Durante, a PhD student at Dublin Institute of Technology, interviewed Kit Cuttle over skype on November 28th 2018.
Kit says "It has been the people … that have really driven my interest in lighting" Read the interview to find out how his career was influenced by Derek Philips, Joe Lynes, Mark Rea and Howard Brandston.
Kiran Maini Gerhardsson (Doctoral student in environmental psychology at Lund University; Illustrator/architect at Pecan Studio) met Mark Rea, June 2017.
KMG: Do you wear sun glasses?
MR: I do, but not in the airplane
Read the whole transcript to find out why sun glasses are an interesting topic for lighting researchers
Kiran Maini Gerhardsson (Doctoral student in environmental psychology at Lund University; Illustrator/architect at Pecan Studio) met Steve Fotios, April 2017.
In a wonderful display of shrewd planning, Kiran set up this interview without Steve being aware until the end of the intended purpose.
KMG: Any publication you are particularly proud of ?
SF: … a review of the Kruithof curve … When you look at credible evidence, it is not supported ... But I suspect that conclusion will be ignored because people like a nice simple rule.
About Bright Lights
Bright Lights was set up by Steve Fotios in 2016 with help from Kynthia Chamilothori and Jim Uttley. The aim is to help new lighting, colour and daylight researchers to meet the experts.

1. Contact me on Steve.Fotios@Sheffield.ac.uk to check the proposed interviewee. Ideally they will be well-known in lighting research, probably with at least 15 years' experience. You may have read their papers and have loads of questions for them.
2. Arrange a 10-20 minute interview with them in person, by skype or by phone and let them know you will be recording the talk. You might ask how they became involved in lighting; who or what inspires them; their best achievement so far; their favourite bar in Vienna…
3. Send me an MP3 of the recording, a transcript and photos of the two of you.
Steve Fotios is leader of the Lighting Research Group at the University of Sheffield and is founder of the LumeNet PhD research methods symposium.

With the appearance of the First Order in The Force Awakens, many questions arise about it, including "How did it start?", "Who is involved?", and "How has it been operating?" While very few questions are answered about it in the movie, prompting many further questions about it, we have seen some answers trickle out, primarily in novels.
Last year's novel "Bloodline" clued us in to some of the funding going towards the First Order and its supporters six years prior to The Force Awakens. With the recent novel, "Star Wars Aftermath: Empire's End", we get to see some of what is going on at the demise of the Galactic Empire that lays the seeds for what will become the First Order.
Above the computers is the projection of a three-dimensional star chart that matches no known map here in the galaxy. Which makes sense given that it does not chart the known galaxy, does it?
For decades, these computers have been plotting a journey. Outside the known galaxy is an unexplored infinity, Palpatine explained, one closed off by a labyrinth of solar storms, rogue magnetospheres, black holes, gravity wells, and things far stranger. Any who tried to conquer that maze did not survive. The ships were obliterated, or returned to the galaxy devoid of travelers. Communications from those explorers were incomprehensible, either shot through with such static as to make the content useless, or tilled with enough inane babble to serve as a perfectly clear sign that the explorer had gone utterly mad out there in isolation. But Palpatine had one in the navy who knew something of the Unknown Regions: Admiral Thrawn, an alien with ice-blue skin who came from beyond the borders of the known galaxy. Palpatine only kept that one around because of what he knew of traversing those deadly interstices. Much of what Thrawn knew went into the computations of this machine.
Palpatine said that this galaxy was to be his, but that it was only one among many. Again that phrase arose: the unexplored infinity. This, he noted, was his demesne. The galaxy was his game board.
If he lost this game, the game board was to be broken in half and discarded. A new demesne must then be found.
The computers here have long been searching for a way through the storms and the black spaces. Slowly, surely, they have been putting together a map: a journey into chaos. The Empire has sent probe droids to test the computations as the computers have made them. Many never returned.
But some kept reporting in, pinging the transponder here. Every droid that made it further contributed to the map. And with distance achieved, the computers, through the scanning droids, continued to chart the course and compute the next branches of navigation.
Before Palpatine's demise at the hands of the rebels, the computers finished their calculations, finally finding a way through the unknown. The Emperor was convinced that something waited for him out there – some origin of the Force, some dark presence formed of malevolent substance. He said he could feel the waves of it radiating out now that the way was clear. The Emperor called it a signal conveniently one that only he could hear.
"I still don't understand what's happening," Hux says.
"How can there be a new Empire?" Brendol blusters.
"There are others," Tashu says, singsongy.
They all nod in a simultaneity that both disturbs and thrills Armitage.
"Thank you," Armitage says to Counselor Rax.
The children all turn once more toward Armitage to stare. He fears that this has all been some trickster's ruse, some game played upon him – they won't listen to him. He doesn't command anything or anyone. They'll laugh at him and, as the man said, they'll beat him, claw him, bite him.
He draws in a quick intake of breath and points to one of the children with a wavering finger – the child is a boy like him, but with tar-dark hair and sun-marked skin. "You," Armitage says to him.
"Do you agree to do as I say?" Armitage asks.
The dark-haired boy turns to a sandy-haired, sallow-cheeked lad. Then he raises a list and clubs that other boy in the side of the head. The boy cries out. A line of blood crawls from a small gash in the victim's cheek. Armitage feels a strange and sinister buzz of excitement.
Here, we see Armitage Hux not only commanding for the first time, but also commanding violence, as well as even sort of enjoying it. Of course, in The Force Awakens, we have seen what dozens of years have done….
Then there comes a question of the children: those bright-eyed monsters. They train every day here on board the ship at the urging of both Brendol and his son, Armitage. Armitage has grown more vicious during these months, even for such a small boy.
Sloane likes him. But she worries about him, too.
They could colonize it all.
Their new galaxy will never have known a time without an Empire. That thrills her.
So, from the end of Star Wars Aftermath: Empire's End, we see that the First Order is called as such, since it's the remnants of the Galactic Empire to set-up anew the Galactic Empire, far from the reaches of the known galaxy, and to get it right. We also see that Armitage Hux is given control of other young boys to order them around, under the tutelage of his father. While they are not the only ones,** they are certainly an important core of the establishing of the First Order.

Johannes Droste (Grave, Países Bajos, 28 de mayo de 1886-Leiden, Países Bajos, 16 de septiembre de 1963) fue un matemático neerlandés y la segunda persona, tras Karl Schwarzschild, en resolver la ecuación de Einstein.

Biografía
El 27 de mayo de 1916, siendo estudiante de Hendrik Lorentz en la Universidad de Leiden, Droste presentó en la Real Academia de Artes y Ciencias de los Países Bajos su solución de la ecuación de Einstein. El mismo año obtuvo su doctorado. Entre 1914 y 1919, fue profesor de matemáticas en el gimnasio de Gorcum. Tras ello, regresó a la Universidad de Leiden, donde obtuvo la plaza como profesor de matemáticas en 1930. Se especializó en la enseñanza del análisis matemático, mientras que abandonó su investigación en física, con excepción de algunas contribuciones en elasticidad y en termodinámica.

Higher rates of abnormal lung function in smokers, the annual rate of decline of FEV1 faster, number of deaths from COPD in smokers than non-smokers. Passive smoking may also lead to the occurrence of respiratory symptoms and COPD. Women smoking during pregnancy may affect fetal lung growth and development in utero, and have some influence on the fetal immune system function.
When occupational dusts and chemicals (smoke, allergens and indoor air pollution, industrial emissions, and so on) contact concentration is too large or too long, can lead to the occurrence of COPD unrelated to smoking. Access to certain special substances, organic dust and allergens, irritant substances increased airway responsiveness.


Everolimus-eluting stents (EES, Xience®, Abbott Vascular) has been shown to be clinically superior to other Drug-eluting stents (DES) and bare metal stents (BMS). Although we have previously published pathological features of EES, the duration of stent implantation was ≤3 years. Our aim for this study was to determine if EES induced very late complication.
From the CVPath stent registry, a total of 50 EES lesions were selected and compared to BMS (Vision®, Abbott vascular, 65 lesions) and sirolimus-eluting stents (SES, Cypher®, Johnson & Johnson, 38 lesions) with implant duration ≥ 1years. . Stented coronary segments were embedded in plastic blocks, cut at 3mm interval, microtome sections, 4 to 6 microns were stained with H&E and Movat pentachrome stains.
The median durations for stent implantations (years) was similar in EES, SES and BMS (1.8, 2.0, 2.8, respectively, P=0.28). There was no difference in the indication for stent implantation. Target lesion failures (TLF) was lowest in EES than in SES and BMS (22%, 31%, 45%, respectively, p=0.09) (Table). Stent thrombosis was the least in EES compared to SES and BMS (4%, 14%, 13%, respectively). Restenosis and chronic total occlusion (CTO) were also lower in EES and SES than BMS (restenosis, 10%, 9%, 21%, respectively; CTO, 8%, 9%, 18%, respectively). Prevalence of neoatheroscleosis was significantly higher in EES and SES than in BMS (48%, 60%, 21%, respectively). However, when neoatheroscleosis was categorized into foam cell, fibroatheroma and thin cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) or rupture, EES exhibit less advanced neoatherosclerosis than SES.
Histologically EES showed the best stent outcome with less TLF and advanced neoatherosclerosis than SES or BMS.

With a flair for anecdotes and situations, large politics and the tiny people along the side of the road, Gerd Kroske has filmed a documentary, which refers back to the educational movies of the transit police and footage of surveillance cameras of the state safety and shows much more than a piece of "civil engineering" history.

The hairs of the Walnut Caterpillar look menacing, but this fuzzy larva does not sting.
Image Credit: Tim, taken on the Appalachian Trail, Pennslyvania.
Family: Notodontidae
Genus: Datana
Species: intergerrima
The Walnut Caterpillar becomes the Walnut Caterpillar Moth.
black, white, white hairs, fuzzy, black head, wiggle, yellow
Walnut caterpillars feed on the leaves of walnut trees, but also those of pecan and hickory. A female lays hundreds of tiny white eggs in a cluster on the bottom side of a leaf. In the early stages, the caterpillar is red-orange with a black head and faint yellow stripes down the length of the body. It is already covered in fine, white hairs, but these are not stinging hairs. As is matures, the body becomes black and the hairs grow longer and thicker. When threatened, it raises its head and rear end in an effort to frighten a potential predator. Up to three generations are produced in southern parts of their range.
These caterpillars are often seen in clumps on the trunk of the tree they are feeding on. Most often, they feed on leaves high in the canopy, but they crawl down the tree to molt, leaving a hairy ball of shed skins before returning to foliage to continue feeding. This 'hair ball' can be scraped off the trunk with an obliging stick, even with living caterpillars still in it, and discarded at least 8 m or yards away from the tree. Mature caterpillars eventually dig into the soil to pupate. Late season caterpillars pupate underground through winter.
Walnut caterpillars are heavy feeders, but they are eaten by birds and other predators so they are not usually treated with other control methods. A tree that is mostly defoliated more than two years in a row may suffer in health and nut production, however, and intervention may be merited. Pruning off lower branches that are loaded with caterpillars is a good way to reduce their impact.
Walnut Caterpillar Diet
butternut; hickory; pecan; walnut
The map above showcases (in blue) the states and territories of North America where the Walnut Caterpillar may be found (but is not limited to). This sort of data can be useful in seeing concentrations of a particular species over the continent as well as revealing possible migratory patterns over a species' given lifespan. Some species are naturally confined by environment, weather, mating habits, food resources and the like while others see widespread expansion across most, or all, of North America.*NOTE: States/Territories shown above are a general indicator of areas inhabited by the Walnut Caterpillar. Insects generally go where they please, typically driven by diet, environmental changes, and / or mating habits.

Even though corn is native to the Americas, its popularity in the Mediterranean region is so widespread that you would think it originated there. This Italian-inspired version is an updated interpretation of traditional recipes from the northern Italian regions of Veneto, Lombardia, and Fruili. Introduced by the Ottomans in the 900s, corn flour was called grano turco or "Turkish grains" in Italian, and became extremely popular with the Jewish community in Venice. Soon thereafter, it became a poor man's staple throughout Italy.
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil,
2½ cups (305 g) stone ground
100% whole-grain, medium-grind
cornmeal
½ tablespoon (9 g) unrefined
sea salt or salt
2 cups (475 ml) boiling water
¼ cup (14 g) chopped sun-dried
4 ounces (115 g) fresh mozzarella
cheese, shredded by hand into large
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
Grease an 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pan with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
Combine the cornmeal, salt, remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil, baking
powder, and sugar in a large bowl. Add the boiling water and stir to mix
until all of the water is incorporated in the mixture.
Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and mozzarella. Pour the cornmeal
mixture into the prepared pan. Wet your hands and press down to
smooth the top.
Bake for 10 minutes and then cover the pan with aluminum foil and
bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or until golden and firm on top. Allow to
cool slightly and serve warm, or allow to cool and wrap in plastic wrap.
While many Americans find the words healthful bread to be an
oxymoron, this isn't the case in the Mediterranean region. There,
fresh breads made with high-quality grains are enjoyed daily and are
a backbone to the diet. Simple, quick breads such as this one can be
whipped up in minutes and provide a heartier alternative to store-
bought varieties.

Jennifer Carcagno, Girls on the Run St. Louis Coach
Without the incredibly dedicated and committed coaches, there would not be a Girls on the Run St. Louis! Our more than 2,000 volunteer coaches bring the curriculum and practices to life by connecting with their Girls on the Run, embodying the core values and helping each of their girls know and activate her limitless potential. We are privileged to have outstanding women and men who believe in and ensure our mission to empower girls for a lifetime of healthy living. We are excited to recognize Girls on the Run St. Louis Coach and supporter, Jennifer Carcagno.
Since 2009 – 10 amazing seasons! – Jen has enthusiastically ensured the success of the Girls on the Run team at her school, Buder Elementary School in the Ritenour School District where she serves as the physical education teacher. She was drawn to the program, not only as an athlete and PE teacher, but by the evidence-based curriculum that she knew would effectively address the unique needs of her girls. Inspired by the possibility for the amazing girls at Buder Elementary to experience confidence and joy with running, the rest is GOTR history!
If you have the privilege to visit one of the Buder Girls on the Run practices, then you will witness what can only be described as magic. Jen's teams are dynamic, engaged and connected – to one another and Coach Carcagno! Jen models the Girls on the Run core values, is supportive of her girls setting big goals and going after it, and always celebrates the team.
Jen is an outstanding ambassador of the program, ensuring we are providing positive, active role models for all our Girls on the Run. Her sincere passion for the mission and vision of Girls on the Run St. Louis is evident to her girls, fellow coaches, colleagues and anyone who meets Coach Carcagno! However, Jen will be the first to tell you that she is the one inspired by the growth she sees in her girls every, single season and the movement this is creating. "I love knowing that our girls can be part of a team, see themselves as I see them – as strong, smart and capable of anything. I love what Girls on the Run means to my teams and will forever believe in this mission!"
In addition to her coaching and having been a GOTR mom, Jen is a small group facilitator at new coach trainings, ensuring more girls have committed, trained and caring coaches. When not in season, Jen has special place in the finish line of the Girls on the Run 5k, handing out finisher medals and high fives to all the "brave and amazing Girls on the Run!"
Brad Eastman, the Original "Sparkler"
Brad Eastman, a logistics specialist with the U.S. Department of Defense, learned about GOTR in 2006 when his wife became a volunteer coach in the Ferguson-Florissant School District. Eastman joined in the excitement of 5k race day with smiles, encouragement and cheers for all the girls as they entered the final meters of the run. He has volunteered on race day ever since.
"His enthusiasm gets girls smiling and running across the finish line," Berg said. "Often the girls are struggling to keep going. With care and attention to what the girls will respond to, Brad helps each girl in those final moments turn on her positivity and celebrate her achievement. The Girls on the Run finish line is a wonderful, positive place thanks to the sparkling energy of Brad."
"Being a part of the Girls on the Run 5k and this organization is truly a privilege and a joy for me," Eastman said. "I look forward to the 5k and it was something that I was most looking forward to once I had recovered from my cancer surgery and treatment. It is so inspiring to me to see every girl cross that finish line, with a smile, knowing she can accomplish it, do it all herself - even if we are holding hands together - she did it! To be part of those moments and part of Girls on the Run is amazing."
Emerson, Community Partner
Also at the 2018 Power Of One Gala, Emerson will be honored as a champion for Girls on the Run St. Louis for 10 years. Recently, in alignment with the Forward Through Ferguson report, Emerson directed support to sites within north St. Louis County, specifically Bermuda Elementary in the Ferguson-Florissant School District.
Emerson underwrites entire teams that would not otherwise be able to afford the program. Emerson's dedication to the Forward Through Ferguson call to action and their philanthropic support has been an inspiration to Girls on the Run St. Louis.

A version of this article appeared in the 08/08/2005 issue of Publishers Weekly under the headline:


It's screening time. This spring, many of the films I shot in the last years, found their way in to cinemas and/or entered the festival circuit.
It was fabulous on every level. Would go into more detail but our producer Laurie and I are fried as we had a 13 hr festival day today! Tomorrow we are going to the beach!
Tomorrow, Saturday the 21st of April, Cheryl Dunye's latest film Mommy is Coming will screen on the IFFF in Cologne. Since I'm nominated for the National Award for Women Cinematographers 2012 for Rüdiger Goerlitz' nicht weit von mir, I am thrilled to be at the IFFF this year for two lovely occasions. Having been sold out four times at Berlinale 2012, Mommy is Coming is touring cinemas in Germany and worldwide currently. – It'll screen in Munich @Werkstattkino opening the 26th of April. There's a Q&A after the screening on Monday, the 30th of April. – For screening times near you, please visit the homepage of the film.
It's kind of sentimental: I love being on set, shooting, telling a story, work with directors, cast&crew. But sometimes it's oh so much fun when you're simply hanging out in the cinema, plunge a bit deeper in to your seat in the dark and see the script unfold like magic on screen. – Movies are amazing!
She first listened to Jennifer Hixson's true story, whilst cooking. A live recording from The Moth, it played on NPR's "This American Life". Hixson's spunky voice made her put the cooking spoon away, sit down and listen. Eventually, the story touched her so strongly, that New York City based director Tawnya Foskett decided, to turn the story in to a film. – Read where the film took Tawnya here.
As the film hits the festival circuit, we're glad to announce that it will have its world-premiere in the town we shot the film in. Girls Who Smoke in Asbury Park @ The Garden State Film Festival this Saturday, March 24th. More info and tickets here.
Read a great interview with director Tawnya Foskett about her movie here. Become a Facebook fan of the movie here.
How will technical setups change your story? Director Cheryl Dunye and I had a great time exploring this with students at the California College of the Arts, where Cheryl holds a seat as Associate Professor. – Here some images of a feature we shot together, Mommy Is Coming, which will have its world premiere at Berlinale 2012.
nicht weit von mir (not far from me) will be screened for cast&crew on the 18th of July in Berlin and on the 21st of July in Munich. Please get in touch to secure your seat.
nicht weit von mir (not far from me), a feature I shot in 2009/2010 in Bavaria, Germany, will be screened in Berlin for all supporters, cast&crew. If you'd like to participate as a gust, please contact me for details.

Williamsburg, Va. – The High Point University women's golf team shot a combined 311 in the first round of the William & Mary Invitational today in Williamsburg, Va., to finish the day ninth out of 11 teams.
"Tan played terrific in today's opening round, with a finishing score of 70 as well as posting a couple birdies," head coach Vici Pate Flesher said. "I know she is anxious to get out and play again tomorrow. The rest of the team needs to settle down and relax to focus on their percentage shots."
Senior Tan Cheeranont carded a two-under 70 in the opening round and was the Panthers' top scorer, finishing in a first place tie. Cheeranont posted three birdies and fourteen pars through 18 holes.
Junior Danielle Fuss finished in a tie for 32nd with an opening round of 78 while sophomore Cayla Smith posted a score of 80. Freshmen Landrie Grace notched a score of 83 as freshman Jenny Zhang posted a 91 on the first day. Unfortunately freshman Patty Treevichaphan stayed out of individual play due to sickness.

Bucknell's Lindsay Dodovich and Kayla Thompson of UNC Wilmington join Cheeranont in a tie for first with matching scores of 70 in the opening round. They hold a one-stroke lead over Anna Gleixner of Eastern Kentucky who carded a 71 through 18 holes.
High Point will return to the Kingsmill Resort Plantation Course on Monday, September 14, for the second of three rounds of the William & Mary Invitational.

OPINION: Don't trust university accreditors to stop for-profit schools from scamming veterans
December 6, 2018 | :
by Matthew Boulay
When U.S. Marine Anselm Caddell completed his tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, all he wanted to do was pursue a degree in criminal justice. It was a path he believed would provide him with the skills and credentials for a career in the security industry. A recruiter from the for-profit Brown Mackie College in Caddell's native Ohio promised him that a degree from this "veteran-friendly" college would enhance his impressive military résumé and guarantee the career in security to which he aspired.
Instead of working toward a brighter future, however, Caddell found himself idling in high school-level courses and sparring with a financial services department that seemed determined to drive him into debt. Worst of all, when he'd had enough and tried to transfer to a California community college to finish his degree, he found that contrary to what Brown Mackie had told him, he was unable to transfer any of the credits and would need to start over from scratch. Caddell's Brown Mackie education had also exhausted his eligibility for student loans.

R-Rated Hellboy Reboot Announced, Guillermo del Toro and Ron Perlman Console Each Other
By Nick Mangione 05.09.2017 :: 3:45PM EST 05.09.2017
Cropped Cover of Hellboy: Into the Silent Sea. (Artist: Gary Gianni, Colors: Dave Stewart, via Dark Horse)
MovieBob Reviews: 'Hellboy'
'Hellboy' and the History of Heroes From Hell
This morning brought some good news and some bittersweet news for fans of Dark Horse Comics' Hellboy. The good news: We're getting another movie. Hellboy creator Mike Mignola announced that the film series will be rebooted. The slightly less good news: Guillermo del Toro and Ron Perlman won't be involved.
Mignola announced on Facebook Monday evening that the reboot is happening and that it will be rated R. It's exciting that the success of Deadpool and Logan have made studios more comfortable with R-rated superhero movies. Occasionally, the rating better fits the source material than PG-13. I think we can all name a few PG-13 comic book movies that were clearly toned down to achieve the rating. The new Hellboy, it appears won't have that problem. It is kind of a shame that del Toro won't be able to make it though. He's a horror master, and it'd be cool to see what he'd do with Hellboy with less studio involvement.
Fortunately, the new director is no stranger to horror. The reboot will be directed by Neil Marshall. In addition to a couple of episodes of Game of Thrones, Marshall is best known for directing The Descent, an exceptionally terrifying, claustrophobic horror film. He should be able to do some really cool things with Hellboy. The new actor playing Hellboy is an exciting choice as well. David Harbour, who played Hopper in Stranger Things, will star in the movie. I probably don't need to remind anyone that he was fantastic in that series, but remembering his performance now, I can't help imagining him as Hellboy. If we can't have Ron Perlman back, Harbour is probably the closest possible thing to a perfect casting. He has that easygoing humor, ability to intimidate and underlying sadness that's so important in making this character work.
For now, the film has a working title of Hellboy: Rise of the Blood Queen, according to The Hollywood Reporter. There's no release date yet, but the script is currently being written.
As exciting as the team behind the new movie is, it is a shame that Perlman and del Toro won't be returning to the franchise. After they both had campaigned to get a third movie in the series made, del Toro announced in February of this year that it wasn't going to happen. In light of today's news, the pair had consoling words for each other on Twitter.
It started when fans reached out to Perlman, expressing sympathy that he won't be able to play Hellboy anymore. Perlman thanked them for their kind words.
Gettin alotta twitter love 2nite. Feelin it. Diggin it.
Much obliged, you, the faithful…
— Ron Perlman (@perlmutations) May 9, 2017
That's when del Toro reached out too with his own message of support, and Perlman responded.
I LOVE you too Perl- https://t.co/94ljKRb6VI
— Guillermo del Toro (@RealGDT) May 9, 2017
Me too little bother. Together through life… https://t.co/ykKfqbSsZg
You can't tell me that's not adorable. Fans also sent del Toro a few nice messages, for which he was very grateful. It sounds like they even got him thinking about what if he were able to make Hellboy 3, despite his busy schedule. Us too, buddy.
@RealGDT Being busy as fuck means you mind rarely wanders into "what ifs?" But the Tweets are just humbling and beautiful.
For now, it looks like the two really will be "together through life." Perlman is in del Toro's animated Netflix series Trollhunters, which will release its second season later this year.
Check out the newly released Hellboy: Into the Sea while we patiently wait for filming to start!

Marriott Data Breach
December 19th, 2018 InfoStream Security – News and General
Source: WPTV
The data of up to 500 million people who have stayed at Starwood Hotels, could have been compromised. Unauthorized access, within the Starwood Network, has been taking place since 2014 according to Marriott.
On Friday, the company said that credit card numbers and expiration of some guests, may have been taken. This means that for approximately 327 million people, their exposure includes some combination of name, mailing address, phone number, date of birth, gender, arrival and departure dates, reservation date and communication preferences. However, for some guests, data was limited mailing and email address.
Marriot have said there was a breach of its database in September, which stored guest information relating to reservations at Starwood properties on or before September 10.
The Starwood chain operates hotels under the following names: W Hotels, St. Regis, Sheraton Hotels & Resorts, Westin Hotels & Resorts, Element Hotels, Aloft Hotels, The Luxury Collection, Tribute Portfolio, Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts, Four Points by Sheraton and Design Hotels. Starwood timeshare properties are also included.
Through investigation, Marriott International Inc discovered that someone not only copied but encrypted guest information and tried to remove it altogether.
Two years ago, Marriott and Starwood were merged, and attempts to combine the two hotels' loyalty programs have been marred by technical difficulties. CEO Arne Sorenson made a prepared statement on Friday saying that Marriott is still trying to phase out Starwood Systems
Alan Crowetz, WPTVs Internet Security expert with Infostream said that the 'Scope is amazing'. I almost thought it was a mistake, the scope is so large.
He said that anyone who uses the same password for multiple accounts, will be the most vulnerable. The first thing someone is going to try to do with a database such as this, is try all the known banks, using the passwords and usernames.
He also offered some advice for creating a secure password:
At least 10 characters
At least one numeral and symbol
Marriott has since set up a website as well as a call center for anyone who suspects they may be at risk, and on Friday said they would begin sending emails to all those affected.
Marriott's share price saw a 6% drop before the opening bell.


Why C++ and not C? Are there some features of C++ not present in C required for Bitcoin to function as it does?
I can see that a similar question has been asked before but I am more curious as to the specific features of C++ meaning that it was chosen for for Bitcoin's codebase instead of C (under the very large assumption it wasn't written in C++ purely as Satoshi's favourite language).
Maybe yes or maybe not, that is, there is no specific reason sometimes for choosing the programming language (This in general) especially in open source projects the language depends a lot on who is part of the project.
Surely C ++ is a ubiquitous language nowadays, just think that java and python were born from this language. In my opinion, in first the choice of C ++ has been given a lot since the presentation of the idiom to objects, we say that C does not have the classes it is not possible to realize many techniques that are in the everyday reality for current programmers.
Then just think that in 2009 all these "Go" languages were not present.
So my definitive answer is: "I think that in the periods when bitcoin core was released and in the previous one in which C ++ was developed it was a reference language for object-oriented programming and it was probably better to use an object-oriented language for technical reasons. as hereditary polymorphism.
This is just my thought, I may be wrong.
Why are chain parameters hardcoded rather than defined in a configuration file?
What caused CVE-2012-2459? How was it fixed?
Why does the beginning of `git log` for the Bitcoin source on github say 'sirius-m' was the first committer?
What language was it written?
