NEW YORK (Reuters) – Deutsche Bank AG (DBKGn.DE) plans to lay off 126 employees in New York in the coming months, according to a filing the bank made with New York state that was made public on Thursday.
The 126 employees are being let go for economic reasons and their final day will be between Aug. 7 and Aug. 21, according to a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification that the bank filed with the New York State Department of Labor on July 8.
Deutsche Bank on Monday announced plans to cut 18,000 jobs worldwide, as part of a 7.4 billion euro ($8.3 billion)restructuring Chief Executive Christian Sewing hopes will turn around the bank, whose shares hit a record low last month.
Companies based in New York that have at least 50 employees are required to notify the state Department of Labor if they plan to reduce the local workforce by a significant number. They must file "WARN notices" 90 days ahead of the planned reductions.
Deutsche Bank had 9,275 employees in North America, predominately in New York, at the end of 2018, according to its annual report.

UN to Warn Member Nations on Risk of Flame Computer Virus
A United Nations agency charged with helping member nations secure their national infrastructures plans to issue a sharp warning about the risk of the Flame virus that was recently discovered in Iran and other parts of the Middle East.
"This is the most serious (cyber) warning we have ever put out," said Marco Obiso, cyber security coordinator for the U.N.'s Geneva-based International Telecommunications Union.
The confidential warning will tell member nations that the Flame virus is a dangerous espionage tool that could potentially be used to attack critical infrastructure, he said in an interview.
"They should be on alert," he said.
Evidence suggest that the virus, dubbed Flame, may have been built on behalf of the same nation or nations that commissioned the Stuxnet worm that attacked Iran's nuclear program in 2010, according to Kaspersky Lab, the Russian cyber security software maker that took credit for discovering the infections.
"I think it is a much more serious threat than Stuxnet," Obiso said.
He said the ITU would set up a program to collect data, including virus samples, to track Flame's spread around the globe and observe any changes in its composition.
Kaspersky Lab said it found the Flame infection after the ITU asked the Russian company to investigate recent reports from Tehran that a mysterious virus was responsible for massive data losses on some Iranian computer systems.
So far, the Kaspersky Lab team has not turned up the original data-wiping virus that they were seeking and the Iranian government has not provided Kaspersky a sample of that software, Obiso said.

Illinois State Senator
District Map and General Information

Syverson seeks to empower voters, pushes for fair maps
Every ten years after the U.S. Census is taken, Illinois redraws its Congressional and Legislative District maps. The current process allows the politicians to draw their own legislative districts taking the people totally out of the process. This then makes legislators beholden to their leaders who draw their districts not to the people they represent. While this has worked well for politicians in the past, it has not for the people of this state.
Recently, I signed on as a sponsor for Senate Joint Resolution-Constitutional Amendment 4 that would give voters the opportunity to amend the Constitution to create a new, non-partisan system for drawing legislative maps.
Recognizing that it is time to take politics out of the process, this legislation gives voters the power to establish an independent redistricting commission, increase transparency in the redistricting process and provide for public hearings to allow Illinois residents to weigh in.
After decades of unrepresentative district mapping and uncompetitive elections, it is time to remove politics from the process, and empower the people of Illinois to actively participate.
If this legislation passes, we can put the power to affect change where it belongs – in your hands. In the past, efforts to put redistricting reform on the ballot have been blocked by the courts and entrenched political leaders.
If you believe that you should have a voice in the redistricting process, that you should be able to cast your vote on this issue, visit my website at senatordavesyverson.com and sign the fair maps petition.
Please join me in affecting real change for our state and put an end to district maps drawn for personal interest.

We flew from Cancun to Tuxtla Gutierrez, the capital city of the State of Chiapas.
Many backpackers opt for the overnight bus from Tulum or Playa del Carmen to reach Chiapas. The buses travel to either Tuxtla Gutierrez or San Cristobal De Las Casas. It is a very long journey usually around 16-20 hours. Not worth it if you do not have much time available.
Volaris, the low cost Mexican Airline offers great fares and it only take 1.5 hours to reach the destination. To be honest, sometimes (if not almost all the time), flying is cheaper than the bus and totally worth the time saved on the road.
We planned to spend couple of nights in the capital City as it is closer to the Cañón Del Sumidero (Sumidero Canyon) rather than visiting it from San Cristobal De Las Casas.
We arrived mid afternoon and we went straight to our accommodation – Hostal Tres Central -a great new hostel right behind the Zocalo, in the centre of town. The hostel is very clean and our room was very spacious with a private shower and a shared toilet. The bed was also cozy and comfortable. The staff at reception were also very knowledgeable, they gave us lots of info about the roundabouts and how to get to the Canyon by ourselves.
After a good night sleep we got up reasonably early and ventured to the Canyon.
We walked approximately 10 minutes to the colectivo station and catch one of the local mini vans to take us directly to Chiapa de Corzo where we were going to catch the boat through the Canyon. The journey took approximately one hour and costed approx 20 pesos each.
Once arrived in Chiapa de Corzo, we walked down the pier lane where we booked our trip with one of the boat companies. It is the less touristy way of doing it even if it is still busy as most people opt for this option instead of going on an organized tour. The cost is also reasonably fair, only 190 pesos per person.
The ride through the Canyon was beautiful, the scenery was fantastic. There are some unusual rock formations. Our guide pointed out to a stalactite named "Caballito de Mar" (The Seahorse) due to its shape resembling the cute inhabitant of the sea.
The Christmas Tree is another atypical rock. Its shape is been sculpted by a waterfall streaming down. The waterfall is present only during the rain season (June to November). We visited in February, so we did not get to see the waterfall. Nonetheless, the Christmas Tree was quite impressive.
There is an abundance of wildlife along the way. We spotted crocodiles – which to me looked quite fake until finally one of them closed its jaws and started to swim on the direction of our boat -.
There were monkeys hiding in the trees and a great variety of birds, including some mean vultures.
The Canyon is surely a place not to be missed.
Back from our boat ride we spent sometime walking around the market in Chiapa De Corzo and lunched with a typical "comida corrida", a very inexpensive set lunch.

Als Kautschukboom wird die Zeit von der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts bis Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts im Amazonasgebiet in Südamerika bezeichnet, in der auf Grund der rasant steigenden Nachfrage nach Kautschuk die tropischen Regenwälder des Gebietes für die Nutzung des dort wachsenden Kautschukbaums erschlossen wurden. Der Kautschukboom war mit vielen Opfern für die zwangsverpflichtete indigene Bevölkerung verbunden und endete mit der einsetzenden Ertragsreife von nach Asien geschmuggelten Kautschukpflanzen um 1920.

Voraussetzungen
Das Harz des Kautschukbaumes (Hevea brasiliensis) wurde von den Indigenen Süd- und Mittelamerikas seit Jahrhunderten gesammelt, da sich der Naturkautschuk auf Grund seiner elastischen Eigenschaften für verschiedene Zwecke nutzen ließ, so etwa für Bälle in den traditionellen Ballspielen.

Die Entdeckung der Vulkanisierung durch Charles Goodyear führte nach 1839 zu einem enormen Wachstum der Nachfrage nach Kautschuk für die Industrie in Europa und Nordamerika. Bald war Kautschuk ein wichtiger Rohstoff von vielen Produkten der Industrialisierung. So wurde Gummi für Regenmäntel und Schuhe, später auch für Fahrradreifen und schließlich für Autoreifen verwendet. Ebenso kam Kautschuk im Eisenbahn- und Maschinenbau sowie als Isolator in der Elektroindustrie zur Anwendung.

Die Kautschukproduktion
Der Kautschuk wurde in den tropischen Regenwäldern Amazoniens von wild wachsenden Kautschukbäumen gesammelt. Hierzu wurde die Rinde angeritzt und das langsam ausfließende Harz in Eimern aufgefangen. Das Harz wurde in Manufakturen vor Ort eingedickt und sodann von Großhändlern aufgekauft, die den Kautschuk nach Nordamerika und Europa verschifften.

Die Großhändler gaben regionalen Händlern und diese wiederum den Kautschuksammlern Vorschüsse an Geld und Gütern, die sie mit entsprechenden Mengen an Kautschuk abgelten mussten und so zu Schuldnern wurden. Ebenso wurden Indigene mit Waffen ausgestattet, wofür diese eine Anzahl an Angehörigen verfeindeter Stämme als Zwangsarbeiter einfangen mussten. So waren Schuldknechtschaft und direkte Waffengewalt wichtige Mittel zur Aufrechterhaltung der Arbeit.

Bei der Kautschukgewinnung in Amazonien war man auf die im natürlichen Habitat wachsenden Bäume angewiesen: Die Anlage von Kautschukplantagen stieß auf Probleme, weil der parasitische Rußtaupilz Microcyclus ulei die in Monokultur angebauten Kautschukbäume dahinraffte.

Der Kautschukboom in Peru

Die kommerzielle Nutzung des Kautschuks in den Regenwäldern Perus begann um 1832. Zunächst war Moyobamba das wichtigste Zentrum des Kautschukhandels in Ostperu, bis 1870 die rasant wachsende Stadt Iquitos am peruanischen Amazonas, die Hauptstadt des neu gebildeten Departamento Loreto, diese Rolle übernahm. Zur Erschließung der Arbeitskraft der Indigenen Amazoniens wurden Gesetze und Verordnungen erlassen, die auch Zwangsarbeit vorsahen, so etwa in einem Dekret des Unterpräfekten von Moyobamba vom 12. September 1832, in dem dies unter anderem mit der Nacktheit, Faulheit, dem schrecklichen Elend und Mangel an Zivilisation der Indios begründet wird. Kautschukhändler teilten die Urwaldregion Perus unter sich auf und kontrollierten mit ihren bewaffneten Privatarmeen riesige Areale, wo sie auch mit Waffengewalt die indigene Bevölkerung zum Sammeln des Naturkautschuks in den Wäldern zwangen. Der wohl größte "Kautschukbaron" Perus war Julio César Arana, der ein erstes Unternehmen 1881 in Yurimaguas eröffnete und 1889 mit britischem Kapital die Peruvian Amazon Company gründete. Er kontrollierte schließlich in der Region um den Putumayo ein Gebiet von etwa 113.000 km², in dem er seine indigenen Zwangsarbeiter durch bewaffnete Männer zur Arbeit anhielt. Über 30.000 Menschen, mehrheitlich Boras und Huitotos, kamen allein in diesem Gebiet zwischen 1881 und 1915 durch Krankheiten und Misshandlungen um. Ein weiterer wichtiger "Kautschukbaron" Perus war Carlos Fermín Fitzcarrald, der 1888 als der reichste Kautschukproduzent am Ucayali galt. Für den "Kautschukbaron" Fitzcarrald waren es bewaffnete Asháninka (damals unter der Bezeichnung Campa bekannt) und Piros, welche die "wilden" Mashcos (Amarakaeri, Toyoeri) einfingen und der Zwangsarbeit zuführten. 1913 waren von insgesamt 28.000 indigenen Arbeitskräften im peruanischen Amazonasgebiet 22.000 als Kautschuksammler beschäftigt.

Aufstieg der Stadt Manaus

Im Kaiserreich Brasilien war die Stadt Manaus am Amazonas wichtigstes Zentrum für Produktion und Handel mit Kautschuk. Um 1890 wurde aus dem kleinen Dorf Manaus eine weltweit bekannte und reiche Großstadt mit breiten Straßen, einer elektrischen Straßenbahn und elektrischen Straßenlampen.

Der Kautschukboom wurde gerade durch die extravagante Lebensart der Kautschukbarone geprägt. Das Bild, eine Zigarre mit Geldscheinen anzuzünden, wurde dadurch bekannt. Waldemar Scholz eignete sich einen Löwen, ein Motorboot und eine Yacht an. Ein weiterer Baron ließ einen Palast für seine Pferde bauen, der so imposant wurde, dass er selbst einzog. In Manaus lebten in der Blütezeit bis zu fünf Prozent Ausländer.

Den Höhepunkt der Extravaganz stellte der Bau des Teatro Amazonas in Manaus dar. Als großes Opernhaus mitten in Amazonien besteht es zu einem Großteil aus importierten Baumitteln, unter anderem italienischem Marmor. Dieser Bau kostete etwa zwei Millionen Dollar, eine für damalige Verhältnisse enorme Summe.

Ende des Kautschukbooms in Südamerika
Der Kautschukboom endete zwanzig Jahre nachdem 1876 Henry Wickham von Joseph Hooker beauftragt wurde, Samen des Kautschukbaums zu sammeln. Henry Wickham schaffte es, über 70.000 Samen zu sammeln, aus denen über 2.000 kleine Bäume in Gewächshäusern in London heranwuchsen und zuerst nach British Malaya verschifft wurden. Die lange Überfahrt schafften lediglich 8 Kautschukpflanzen, die bis heute den Grundstock für sämtliche Kautschukplantagen in Südostasien bilden. Beginnend im Jahre 1910 verfiel der Kautschukpreis, was unter den Kautschukbaronen Panik auslöste. Asien hatte die bis dahin bestehende Monopolstellung Brasiliens aufgebrochen und beendete dadurch den südamerikanischen Kautschukboom. Der Historiker Guillaume Blanc der Universität Rennes 2 bezeichnet auch die Ausbreitung der Kautschukpflanzung im Indochina der 1900er Jahre als Kautschukboom.

Heute sind für die meisten Zwecke, für die anfangs Naturkautschuk verwendet wurde, synthetische Materialien verfügbar. Allerdings werden insbesondere Seitenwände von Autoreifen und Flugzeugreifen aus Naturkautschuk hergestellt, da dort enorme Kräfte wirken, denen die Synthetikgummis nicht genügend Widerstand entgegensetzen. Die Laufflächen hingegen sind Abriebsflächen und werden von gängigen Herstellern aus Synthetikgummi aufvulkanisiert.

Literarisches Echo
Der deutsche Schriftsteller Karl Aloys Schenzinger beschreibt in seinem Roman Bei I.G. Farben die Mission des Henry Wickham zur Beschaffung der Kautschukbaumsamen und gleichzeitig den Reichtum der Kautschukexporteure Brasiliens in der Form einer Abenteuererzählung.

Properties of Metals: Mechanical, Electrical, Thermal, Magnetic, Chemical Properties [PDF]
List of materials properties
The Science and Engineering of Materials
They are available chemically combined with other elements. Metals are extracted from there ores. The properties of the metal are defined as the special qualities or characteristics of metals that determine their suitability for a specific engineering application.
Although metals have a wide range of properties, the knowledge of the important properties will be helpful in the section of the metals for a specific application. Mechanical properties of metal indicate the nature of its inherent behavior under the action of the external force.
This property of the metals by virtue of which they are able to regain the original shape and size after the removal of the load is called elasticity. It is a very important property, since all cutting tools and metallic objects to maintain their original shape while working and after the removal of the applied force.
For every metal, there will be a maximum limit up to which the force applied will not leave any deformation after it ceases to exist. This is the maximum limit is called the elastic limit [External Link]. If the Force Applied beyond the elastic limit the metal will retain the deformation even after the removal of applied forces. The plasticity may be defined as the property of metal by virtue of which a permanent deformation takes place without fracture whenever it is subjected to the action of external forces.
Most of the metals have been found to possess good plasticity. This property is very important in forming shaping an extruding operation. Many metals are shaped in hot conditions, for example, rolling of structural steel shapes and the forging of certain machine parts. The ductility may be defined as the property of metals by virtue of which they can be drawn into wires or elongated before rupture takes place.
This property depends largely upon tenacity and to some extent on hardness. Ductility of metal is higher when cold than hot, hence wires are drawn in cold condition. The brittleness may be defined as the property of metal by virtue of which it will fracture suddenly without any appreciable deformation [External Link].
Metals that are less ductile will be brittle. Cast iron is one of the best examples of brittle metals. The hardness may be defined as the property of metal by virtue of which resist, abrasion, indentation, and scratch by relatively harder materials.
It is expressed related to the hardness of some standard minerals. Diamond, quartz, corundum, etc. The hardness is an important property for cutting tool materials and the metallic component which have to resist wear while working. Toughness may be defined as the property of the metal by virtue of which we can observe maximum energy before fracture [External link] takes place.
It is measured by the amount of energy that is a unit volume of material has after being stressed up to the point of fracture. Toughness decreases with an increase in temperature. It may be defined as the property by virtue of which the metal will not deform or deflect when the load is applied. Although still is stronger than cast iron, the later is preferred for machine beds and frames because it is more rigid and less likely to deflect with consequent loss of alignment and accuracy. Resilience may be defined as the property of metal by virtue of which it stores energy and resists shock and impact loads [External Link].
It is measured by the amount of energy that can be stored per unit volume after stressed up to the elastic limit [External Link]. The material of higher resistance is used for spring. The creep may be defined as the property of metal by virtue of which it deforms continuously and slowly under a steady load. Metal generally exhibit creep at Higher temperatures. The characteristic of a metal which enables the flow of electric current through it is called electrical properties.
The most important electrical properties of metals are conductivity, Resistivity and dielectric strength [Both links are External]. The conductivity may be defined as the electrical property of the metal by virtue of which allows the flow of electric current. It is also defined as the reciprocal of resistance. The resistivity may be defined as Electrical property of the metal by virtue of which it impedes or resists the flow of electric current.
It is also defined as the reciprocal of conductivity. It increases linearly with an increase in temperature.
If the operating voltage is increased gradually, at some voltage it loses its insulating property. The minimum voltage that can be applied to the insulating material which results in the destruction of the insulating properties of the material is defined as the dielectric strength.
It is used in the selection of insulating materials. The thermal properties of the metals are the characteristics of the metal which are influenced by the application of heat.
Pure metals show only small changes in thermal conductivity with temperature. The thermal conductivity of Copper and Aluminium increases as the temperature decreases until a maximum reached.
All metals and alloys to a greater or lesser extent, expand when heated and contract when cooled. The amount of expansion and contraction will be proportional to the change in temperature.
The thermal expansion is the characteristic of metals and alloys. This property of the metals will be useful in the application such as shrink-fit and bi-metal alloys. The specific heat of a metal may be defined as the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance through 1 Degree Celsius.
The melting point is defined as the temperature at which it begins to melt when the heat is added to it. Magnetic properties refer to the metal and alloys such as iron, steel and associated alloying elements such as cobalt and Nickel. All other materials are non-magnetic.
Metals and alloys are classified as either hard or soft. Hard magnetic materials retail magnetism after the initial magnetism has been removed. Soft magnetic materials can be easily magnetized or demagnetized and the retain actually no magnetism when the magnetizing force is removed. Magnetic materials are used in a large variety of electrical and electronic components like computers, televisions, video cassettes, and a transducer, etc. Magnetic permeability is defined as a measure that indicates the ease in which magnetism may be developed in the materials.
Hard magnetic materials have a low permeability Where are soft magnetic materials have a high permeability. It is applied to remove previous magnetization or residual magnetism.
The Coercive force must be very small in magnetic materials. When a ferromagnetic material is subjected to a gradually increasing magnetic field, simultaneously there will be a corresponding increase in the intensity of magnetization. When the field strength is decreased to zero. In order to reduce it to zero, a certain amount of magnetic field is applied in the reverse direction. The change in the intensity of magnetization always lags behind the change in the magnetic field strength.
This phenomenon of magnetic materials called hysteresis. Some of the important chemical properties considered in the selection of materials are corrosion, composition and acidity and alkalinity. A considerable amount of energy is spent during the extraction process. As a result of pure metals possess more energy compared to their ores.
As a result, pure metals have a tendency to revert back to their natural state. When pure metals are exposed to the atmosphere of our environment containing liquid and gases, the surface of the metal starts deteriorating due to the chemical reaction. The two simple examples of corrosion resulting in iron and formation of a green film on the surface of copper. The properties of metal depending on the chemical composition of the elements present in the metals and alloys.
Acidity is the Acid characteristics of the metals. Alkaline is the characteristic that neutralizes the acidity. Corrosion of steel is minimized by mentioning the boiler water alkaline. So in this article, I mentioned all the Mechanical properties of Metal , and also describe each one of those, now I want to hear from you, feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section, I will love to see those.
The five properties of metals are: 1. Mechanical properties of metals 2. Chemical properties. It can be classified into: 1. Creep 2. Toughness 3. Hardness 4. Brittleness 5. Elasticity 6. Plasticity 7. Read More…. Melting Point 2. Thermal Conductivity 3. Thermal Expansion 4. Specific Heat 5.

A material's property or material property is an intensive property of some material , i. These quantitative properties may be used as a metric by which the benefits of one material versus another can be compared, thereby aiding in materials selection. A property may be a constant or may be a function of one or more independent variables , such as temperature. Materials properties often vary to some degree according to the direction in the material in which they are measured, a condition referred to as anisotropy. Materials properties that relate to different physical phenomena often behave linearly or approximately so in a given operating range [ further explanation needed ]. Modeling them as linear can significantly simplify the differential constitutive equations that the property describes. Some materials are used in relevant equations to predict the attributes of a system a priori.
Хватка на горле Сьюзан слегка ослабла. Стратмор выключил телефон и сунул его за пояс.
Быстро пришлите сюда людей. Да, да, прямо. К тому же у нас вышел из строя генератор. Я требую направить сюда всю энергию из внешних источников. Все системы должны заработать через пять минут.
К своему будущему. Шифровалка снова купалась в ярких огнях. Внизу фреон протекал сквозь дымящийся ТРАНСТЕКСТ, как обогащенная кислородом кровь. Стратмор знал, что охладителю потребуется несколько минут, чтобы достичь нижней части корпуса и не дать воспламениться расположенным там процессорам. Он был уверен, что все сделал вовремя, и усмехнулся.
Вы думаете, он, умирая, до последний секунды переживал за несчастное АНБ. - Распадается туннельный блок! - послышался возглас одного из техников. - Полная незащищенность наступит максимум через пятнадцать минут.
Он поймал себя на том, что непроизвольно пятится от незнакомцев. Тот, что был пониже ростом, смерил его холодным взглядом. - Сюда, мистер Беккер. Быстрее. Беккер повернулся и побежал, но успел сделать только один шаг.
Разве не так, коммандер. - Ни в коем случае! - отрезал Стратмор. Хейл вскипел: - Послушайте меня, старина. Вы отпускаете меня и Сьюзан на вашем лифте, мы уезжаем, и через несколько часов я ее отпускаю.
Беккер прижался к стене спиной, внезапно ощутив все камушки под подошвами, все бугорки штукатурки на стене, впившиеся в спину. Мысли его перенеслись назад, в детство. Родители… Сьюзан. О Боже… Сьюзан. Впервые с детских лет Беккер начал молиться.

A type that can be iterated with a for...in loop.
SequenceType makes no requirement on conforming types regarding whether they will be destructively "consumed" by iteration. To ensure non-destructive iteration, constrain your sequence to CollectionType.
// Not guaranteed to continue from the next element.
SequenceType makes no requirement about the behavior in that case. It is not correct to assume that a sequence will either be "consumable" and will resume iteration, or that a sequence is a collection and will restart iteration from the first element. A conforming sequence that is not a collection is allowed to produce an arbitrary sequence of elements from the second generator.
A type that represents a subsequence of some of the elements.

Yung Gravy
Spitting smooth and slippery rhymes dedicated to MILF's and filtering old school samples through gritty trap beats, Yung Gravy might very well be the most unique MC to emerge in decades.
Upholding the longstanding hip-hop tradition of competition, the Minnesota-born rapper recognized a void in 2016 when he first picked up the mic…
"I really felt like there was something missing," he explains. "I wasn't hearing what I wanted to hear, so I stepped up to the plate and actually started doing it myself."
Inspired by everyone from OutKast, Nate Dogg, Curren$y, and Action Bronson to Patrice Rushen and The Blackbyrds, Gravy took to SoundCloud to begin releasing music. The first song he uploaded, "Karen", quickly garnished new fans and stirred a palpable buzz online. His first EP, Mr. Clean, went viral on the strength of "Continental Breakfast" — which cracked the 1-million mark on Soundcloud. Sandwiching a sample of The Chordettes' "Mr. Sandman" between raunchy and raw rhymes, the title track "Mr. Clean" soundtracked countless fan videos and ignited 15.1 million Spotify streams and 6.7 million Soundcloud plays in under a year.
Throughout 2017, he prolifically unleashed a string of nonstop music, including Thanksgiving's Eve, Yung Gravity EP, and Baby Gravy EP. Soon, he reached #1 on Indify and had labels knocking at his door. Gravy kicked off 2018 with the sizzling single "1 Thot 2 Thot Red Thot Blue Thot."
Flipping the Dr. Seuss limerick upside down, the hook proves immediately infectious, but it's the opening line that sets the stage for his formal arrival: "Now I'm off probation…and I'm fucking with some Asians."
"I was at a house party in Georgia that got broken up by the cops," he recalls. "We were accused of burglary, and I spent the night in jail. I got probation with community service. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, so all of the felonies were expunged, but I still got charged with 'Criminal Trespassing' and 'Underage Drinking.' The day I got off probation, I was super hyped and inspired. This is my freedom song."
Now that he's free, he's ready to leave a lasting impression on the game — and maybe a MILF or three…
"At the end of the day, this is all meant to make people feel good," he leaves off. "This is party music, and everyone's invited."

Q: Unity 5.5 obsolete particle system code Before 5.5 particle system variables could be accessed via ParticleSystem and were read/write. Now they're accessed via ParticleSystem.MainModule and thus a lot of code has become obsolete. The API Updater has not been able to fix most of the issues. I've read through the new documentation but I can't figure out how the new variable types are supposed to be used. For example in JetParticleEffect.cs this line causes a warning:
// set the original properties from the particle system
m_OriginalLifetime = m_System.startLifetime;

The warning states: 'ParticleSystem.startLifetime' is obsolete: 'startLifetime property is deprecated. Use main.startLifetime or main.startLifetimeMultiplier instead.'
I've tried the following:
m_OriginalLifetime = m_System.main.startLifetime;
// error: Cannot implicitly convert type 'UnityEngine.ParticleSystem.MinMaxCurve' to 'float'

I believe the answer has something to do with the minMaxCurve constant variables as this compiles:
m_OriginalLifetime = m_System.main.startLifetime.constant;

But there is almost no explaination in the docs. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Also, where do the new multipliers fit in? I assume where previously you could do this:
particle.startSize *= myMultiplier

... you should now do this?
particle.main.startSizeMultiplier = myMultiplier

A: particle.startLifetime:
First of all, what Unity did in Unity 5.5 was to add new futures to the ParticleSystem. They also exposed some ParticleSystem API that was hidden before.
ParticleSystem.MainModule.startLifetime is now a type of MinMaxCurve instead of float like ParticleSystem.startLifetime.
By doing this, you are now given more options such as modifying the startLifetime as a curve.
Reading or writing to ParticleSystem.MainModule.startLifetime depends on the value of ParticleSystem.MainModule.startLifetime.mode which is set through the Editor or via code.

The default value of ParticleSystem.MainModule.startLifetime.mode is ParticleSystemCurveMode.Constant
So your m_OriginalLifetime = m_System.main.startLifetime.constant; is fine.
If startLifetime is dynamically or randomly changed to another mode during run-time, then you will have to do something like this:
ParticleSystem m_System = GetComponent<ParticleSystem>();
ParticleSystem.MainModule main = m_System.main;

ParticleSystem.MinMaxCurve minMaxCurve = main.startLifetime;

if (minMaxCurve.mode == ParticleSystemCurveMode.Constant)
{
    m_OriginalLifetime = m_System.main.startLifetime.constant;
}
else if (minMaxCurve.mode == ParticleSystemCurveMode.Curve)
{
    AnimationCurve animCurveLifetime = m_System.main.startLifetime.curve;
}
...

particle.startSize:
The-same thing apply to particle.startSize.
The particle.startSize property is now m_System.main.startSize;
Although you can't do m_System.main.startSize.constant *= myMultiplier; because your old code was particle.startSize *= myMultiplier.
You need to get m_System.main.startSize, modify it then assign the modified m_System.main.startSize back to m_System.main.startSize.
particle.startSize *= myMultiplier should be:
ParticleSystem m_System = GetComponent<ParticleSystem>();
ParticleSystem.MainModule main = m_System.main;

ParticleSystem.MinMaxCurve minMaxCurve = main.startSize; //Get Size

minMaxCurve.constant *= myMultiplier; //Modify Size
main.startSize = minMaxCurve; //Assign the modified startSize back

Then, what are particle.main.startSizeMultiplier and particle.main.startSize used for?
This two variables can also be used to change startLifetime and startSize. It's main advantage is that it is very efficient. It does not not require that you make a copy of MinMaxCurve like we did above, in order to change startSize or startSizeMultiplier.
ParticleSystem m_System = GetComponent<ParticleSystem>();
ParticleSystem.MainModule main = m_System.main;
main.startSizeMultiplier = 5;

and
ParticleSystem m_System = GetComponent<ParticleSystem>();
ParticleSystem.MainModule main = m_System.main;
main.startLifetimeMultiplier = 8;

Use them if your ParticleSystem.MainModule.startLifetime.mode is constant. This will to change the overall lifetime multiplier or the the overall size multiplier efficiently.

Lecturer in Typography & Graphic Communication
Lecturing in typeface design, typography, and graphic communication across undergraduate and postgraduate programmes
Room F8, Typography & Graphic Communication
Whiteknights campus (Building 21, TOB2)
My areas of interest include typeface design, typography, lithography, and history of printed letterforms, particularly in the context of languages that have been represented with the Arabic script. I seek to develop diverse and inclusive theoretical and practical outputs by linking an updated understanding of the past with current practices. Central to my work is decolonising the curriculum and promoting diversity by combining expertise in a wide range of related disciplines that reach beyond European visual cultures and the Latin script.
I aim to make knowledge and resources in our field more widely available. I am interested in interdisciplinary collaborations and projects relating to preserving and documenting endangered and ephemeral archival materials, knowledge exchange activities that draw on approaches and methods of digital humanities, and open access scholarly and cultural initiatives that provide equitable and inclusive access to primary materials and learning resources.
Postgraduate supervision
I welcome opportunities to supervise doctoral research in areas including typeface design, typography, and print history in Asian languages and writing systems, specifically those concerned with addressing the textual cultures in underrepresented communities and language-groups that use the Arabic script. I also welcome historical and theoretical enquiries from students keen to address historical gaps, undertake extensive archival research, and explore new avenues to inform current practices through their research outputs.
I teach typeface design, typography, and graphic communication practice across the Department's undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, deliver lectures, seminars, and make workshop contributions, and supervise student dissertations and advise on research projects.
I have been active in art, design, and visual communication since 1999. During this period, I have explored painting, sculpture, photography, and graphic design, as well as typeface design and typography, which I currently practice exclusively.
The topic of my doctoral thesis was the early typographic representation of the Persian language, written with the Arabic script, from the 1590s (onwards) in Europe, and from 1780 in India, 1742 in the Ottoman Empire, and 1818 in Iran. I investigated circumstances that affected the textual identity of the Persian language, including the impact of printing technologies, and the role the Persian language has played in various language communities. I approached the history of Persian printing from a global perspective, which allowed me to explore the history of Persian as well as other languages that have been written in the Arabic script in different parts of the world.
I have presented my doctoral research at international conferences and symposiums in Europe and Asia. I have published my research in English and Persian in specialist academic journals, on widely accessible platforms such as the British Library and BBC websites, and in short essays for Iranian journals and newspapers. I have also been involved in organising and running workshops and exhibitions, including Early lithography around the world: objects, processes, and experiences, 20th-century Persian newspaper types: investigating the design process, and Introduction to non-Latin type design.
Addressing non-academic audiences is a priority I have pursued through social media activities, writing newspaper articles, and being interviewed on TV (BBC World Service). This has been accompanied by interdisciplinary collaborations, including a video interview on translation and transliteration in the exhibition, 'Régions d'être', curated by the Slavs and Tatars art collective. I have also served as a jury member for prestigious typeface design competitions such as Type Directors Club and Granshan.
The critical and interdisciplinary approach that I have employed as a researcher and practitioner has enabled me to use the outcomes of my research to inform my design practice. I have designed several award-winning digital typefaces based on historical research and the close study of stylistic and linguistic requirements of languages written in the Arabic script. Notable work as a typeface designer has included personal and collaborative projects such as the Urdu Nasta'liq typeface, Gulzar (Google Fonts, 2022), Adapter Arabic (Rosetta Type, 2020), Markazi Text (Google Fonts, 2018), Marlik (Rosetta Type, 2018), and Lalezar (Google Fonts, 2016).
My teaching in type design, typography, and graphic communication is informed by my previous experiences in teaching, research, and design practice. From 2016, I have been active as a postgraduate teaching assistant and lecturer in typeface design, supporting and covering for Professor Fiona Ross. I enhance my teaching through the use of collections, both those in the Department of Typography & Graphic Communication and my personal collection of Arabic-script publications in various languages sourced from many countries. With these materials, I have developed the seminar 'Introduction to Arabic typography and Arabic type-design' for postgraduate students in the Department and cohorts taking part in the Type Design intensive (TDi) program. I have also co-led the two-day course, 'Introduction to Non-Latin Type Design', with Professor Fiona Ross and Dr Vaibhav Singh at the British Library.

The rule of law is dead: There will be no legal recourse for anyone injured by new covid-19 vaccines
AstraZeneca is one of twenty-five pharmaceutical companies that are entering into liability-free vaccine contracts with governments around the world. These corrupt contracts give the vaccine maker legal immunity when their vaccines harm people, giving pharmaceutical companies power over the courts. The rule of law is officially dead, as millions of victims line up to be injected by experimental inoculations where there will be no legal recourse for any vaccine side effect, reaction, disability, injury or death.
Ruud Dobber, a senior AstraZeneca executive, told Reuters: "In the contracts we have in place, we are asking for indemnification. For most countries it is acceptable to take that risk on their shoulders because it is in their national interest." He added, "This is a unique situation where we as a company simply cannot take the risk if in … four years the vaccine is showing side effects."
FDA threatens to use emergency use provision to get liability-free covid-19 vaccines to market
To make matters worse, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is already declaring that new covid-19 vaccines will likely be rushed to market using the emergency use provision in the FDA "regulations." An exemption provided in 21 CFR 56.104(c) allows a drug or biologic to bypass prior review and approval by the Institutional Review Boards and investigators. Emergency use is designated for an investigational drug or biological product (vaccine) on a human subject who faces a life-threatening situation in which no standard acceptable treatment is available and in which there is not enough time to obtain institutional review board approval. In order to achieve this emergency use designation, there must be sufficient evidence that the biologic is necessary for treating a "severely debilitating" disease that is causing "irreversible morbidity." The problem is that vaccines are not treatments; they are merely a promise of protection against a potential infection. In order to get emergency use authorization, everyone needs to be convinced that they are infected with or at risk at all times to a deadly disease.
This is why effective treatment protocols are being censored online, why independent doctors are being threatened and fired when they come forward with treatment success stories. The situation must look as grim as possible. Covid-19 must have the highest of mortality rates and be perceived as a "severely debilitating" disease that no one is "immune to." This is why there is no discussion on strengthening the human immune response, why there are exaggerated claims of ICUs filling up, and why there is constant media reporting of "hotspots" and "rising case numbers." It's all part of a big, desperate vaccine sell.
Governments guaranteeing vaccine makers legal immunity even when debilitation and death result from the vaccines
The worst part is that none of these vaccine manufacturers will face legal action for the side effects caused by their rushed vaccines. A senior executive for AstraZeneca has already declared that his company is immune from legal action from the side effects caused by the new vaccines.
For the Moderna vaccine, clinical trials already show that 80 percent of vaccine recipients will show symptoms after getting injected, but this science is irrelevant because these vaccines are for emergency use for a disease that no one is supposed to survive! Furthermore, the FDA will approve the vaccines as long as the injections are as effective as a flip of the coin (50%). This means no one will know if they are effective or not.
Twenty-five pharmaceutical companies are already testing their products on humans and receiving authorization to test hundreds of millions more doses on populations around the world. AstraZeneca has already profited $12.6 billion the last six months and the vaccine hasn't even come to fruition or hit the market. Even though they are flush with cash, AstraZeneca will not be held responsible for damages stemming from their "hopeful" vaccine candidate.
Because vaccine manufacturers like AstraZeneca are indemnified from lawsuits when people are harmed by the rushed vaccines, the rule of law is dead. It doesn't matter if the vaccine injury causes sickness, neurological damage, seizures, autoimmune disorders, or severe and life-threatening reactions: The vaccine makers are free from judicial accountability. Their products will continue to enjoy licensure and market exclusivity, harming more people along the way. Some countries are setting up public funds to compensate those injured by the vaccines. These taxpayer-funded systems allow pharmaceutical companies to harm people carte blanche, all for the "greater good."
It's not just the vaccine makers that are corrupt to the core, criminal enterprises run amok. It's the leadership of each country that is abiding by the vaccine maker's demands. In their contracts with each country, AstraZeneca only agrees to supply their vaccines if the leaders of the country guarantee that they will be indemnified, barring any injured party from legal recourse if and when they are harmed by the vaccine. Most countries are succumbing to these demands, throwing away the rule of law and allowing a select few vaccine companies to rule over humanity, to reign by terror, and to maim and kill people at their own will.

I've got an issue with any of our Analysts that use the Outlook Cireson Console.
When they attempt to attach an email to the incident log (private) it comes up the following error once the OK button is clicked, the screen shows up OK to search for the incident but it is just after hitting OK the error happens.
The analysts can "Attach To Incident" perfectly fine.
We are on Service Manager 2012 R2 UR9, Outlook Console 7.6.2012.169.
I was unable to recreate the error in my lab, although I'm using SCSM2016, Outlook 2013 and OC 7.6.2016.169. Can you provide your OC settings set in SCSM/Administration/Settings? I ask because I'd like to further test with your settings.
Also, do you have any 3rd party add-ins running in Outlook? If so, I would disable those to eliminate any conflicts.
Hi there - I downloaded the latest version from https://softwaredownloads.cireson.com/#/ - v8.0.3.2016 and that's resolved the issue. Thanks for your assistance!
Seems to be good now! Randomly started working for all users!
I'm getting the above error also. Add to Incident Log/Add to Service Request Log/Add to Problem Log are all failing with Dean's error (though other options are fine: Attach to Incident/Attach to Service Request/Attach to Problem) .
Your settings appear to be default, which are the same as my settings. Running SCSM2016/Outlook 2016/OC v8.0.2.2016, again unable to reproduce. Can you uninstall OC V8.0.0 and download/install OC V8.0.2.2016? Let us know.
