Stay warm and limber on the sidelines like der FCB in this men's football windbreaker. Built with lightweight polyester, the jacket's drawcord hood, elastic cuffs and droptail hem provide full coverage from the weather. It's finished with an FC Bayern München crest.


I have started to recycle different containers for plant pots as advised by Top Veg. Here are my efforts so far.
Recycled cream pot with sunflower seedling.
Recycled cress tub with tomato seedling.
Recycled strawberry punnet with pepper seedling.
Recycled yoghurt pot with pepper seedling.
Another recycled yogurt pot with pepper seedling.
I don't know why I didn't think of recycling these pots before now, because not only is this environmentally friendly but it is also financally friendly aswell!

Game Freaks 365
- Observer: System Redux
Observer: System Redux is more of a definitive edition than a full remake. Despite some segments falling flat, it's a tightly-wound narrative that is one of Bloober Team's finest.
- Spirit of the North
Spirit of the North Enhanced Edition takes cues from other adventure games like Journey, but it doesn't offer the same level of replayability. However, it does have a super cute fox.
- Bright Memory
Bright Memory for Xbox Series X|S is an extremely unoptimized and poorly polished launch title. However, the future looks bright for the game. The foundation for something truly special is there.
- Umihara Kawase BaZooKa!
Umihara Kawase Bazooka is a unique, weird little game that manages to overstay its welcome even with the light content included. How this game got priced at $30 is beyond me.
- Yakuza: Like a Dragon
Yakuza: Like a Dragon is almost a soft reboot of an aging franchise. It takes the long-running series in a new direction that works really well as a first outing.
- Assassin's Creed Valhalla
Assassin's Creed Valhalla builds upon what made Odyssey and Origins great, and it removes a good amount of terrible side quests.
- Baldur's Gate 3
Baldur's Gate 3 is a ton of fun if you're willing to invest the time. There are certainly a number of caveats to that. You'll have to be patient in finding the right settings for your rig. You'll also have to be patient while Larian Studios irons out a lot of the technical issues and bugs, and you'll have to be okay with losing your saves when it comes out of early access.
- Watch Dogs: Legion
Watch Dogs: Legion isn't a bad game; it's just not a great one either. I'm still intending to go back through and finish sweeping up the tech points that I've missed so far and recruiting the most random NPCs I can find, but it definitely feels like a step backward from Watch Dogs 2.
- Fight Crab
Fight Crab is one of those games you have to see to believe. But after the charm wears off, you'll be wondering why you're still playing it.
- Kingdoms Of Amalur: Re-Reckoning
Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning might be worth it for those that never got around to the original. It's hard to recommend to returning players as a bare-bones remaster.

Josef Friedrich Schmidtler (* 6. Mai 1942 in München) ist ein deutscher Herpetologe und ehemaliger Regierungsdirektor.

Leben
Schmidtler ist der Sohn des Herpetologen Josef Johann Schmidtler. Er ist studierter Jurist und stieg bis zum leitenden Regierungsdirektor auf. Sein Hauptinteresse gilt jedoch der Herpetofauna, zum einen den Salamandern, Echsen und Schlangen Vorderasiens und zum anderen den Amphibien und Reptilien des Alpenraums. Schmidtler begleitete sowohl seinen Vater als auch die Herpetologen Josef Eiselt und Wolfgang Bischoff auf deren ausgedehnte Exkursionen. Er veröffentlichte über 50 Arbeiten für die Zeitschriften der DGHT, davon rund 23 in der Zeitschrift Salamandra. Bei der DGHT ist er Ehrenmitglied und Ehrenrat sowie Mitglied der Arbeitsgemeinschaften Lacertiden, Urodela sowie Literatur und Geschichte. Schmidtlers Forschungsarbeit umfasst die die morphologische Variation von Schlangen, Echsen, Frosch- und Schwanzlurchen sowie deren zoogeografische Klassifikation, die klimatische und vegetationskundliche Einordnung der Fundorte mit einem möglichen Rückschluss auf die Morphologie und letztendlich auch die Anwendung einer korrekten Nomenklatur. Weitere Studien umfassen die Höhenzonierung und Merkmalsvariationen. Nach einer langen Debatte über den korrekten Gattungsnamen des Bergmolches, legte Schmidtler 2009 Ichthyosaura  als akzeptierten wissenschaftlichen Namen fest, da es sich um den ältesten sich eindeutig auf diese Art beziehenden Gattungsnamen handelt. Während seiner Studienreisen ab den 1960er Jahren, zunächst mit seinem Vater und später mit seiner Frau Hanni, trug er eine große herpetologische Sammlung zusammen, die sich heute zum größten Teil in der Zoologischen Staatssammlung München befindet.

Schmidtler war an den Erstbeschreibungen von 33 Taxa beteiligt, davon sind Bufotes turanensis, Bufotes zugmayeri, Rana pseudodalmatina, Anatololacerta budaki, Darevskia bendimahiensis, Darevskia sapphirina, Eirenis barani, Eirenis eiselti, Eirenis hakkariensis, Eirenis kermanensis, Eirenis levantinus, Eirenis occidentalis, Eirenis thospitis, Lacerta pamphylica sowie Phoenicolacerta cyanisparsa heute noch gültig.

2014 war er Co-Autor der Schriften Die Zeichnungen und Aquarelle von Nikolaus Michael Oppel (1782–1820) I. Geckos von Herbert Rösler sowie Les dessins et aquarelles de Nikolaus Michael Oppel. 2. Les tortues von Roger Bour.

The financial crisis for the pk-12 schools is over as their purchasing power increases. These schools follow CCSS (Common Core State Standards) and NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards). All these standards put emphasis on the depth of understanding and conveying information required for students to construct their knowledge. Institutions are going beyond the education label to meet the standard searching for the fundamental structure to execute the new standards. States that refuse to follow CCSS have changed their focus. On the Talk show, we will present seasoned marketing experts of pK-12 who have followed their trends and speak about the changes in the marketplace.
Here is a story of a woman who used fitness as her wings to fly out in this world. "First Love Yourself! " — She says. Valerie and Jahari explain their realistic story on how they used fitness as an empowerment and gained self confidence. Valarie worries that most women feel they are too small than they actually are and don't open themselves to offer a choice grow and break out of their shell. They very often stay in their comfortable zone. She also says he had accidentally discovered about her hidden talents which she doesn't even knew before. From then on, it has become a new challenge and she was intended to tackle all those. She just left the corporate America and started her own business as a personal trainer and that's is where she is now in gaining confidence and self esteem for herself along with other women.

'Kong: Skull Island': Official Trailer Released
By The Movie God | @ | November 17th, 2016 at 1:40 am
Back in July during San Diego Comic-Con the first trailer for Kong: Skull Island was released to the masses. The movie is directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts (The Kings of Summer), and stars Tom Hiddleston (Thor, Crimson Peak), Brie Larson (Room, United States of Tara), Samuel L. Jackson (Pulp Fiction, The Hateful Eight), John Goodman (10 Cloverfield Lane, Monsters Inc.), Corey Hawkins (Straight Outta Compton, The Walking Dead), Toby Kebbell (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Warcraft), Jason Mitchell (Straight Outta Compton, Keanu), Shea Whigham (Boardwalk Empire, True Detective), and John C. Reilly (Step Brothers, Wreck-It Ralph).
Now the official trailer for the movie has been unleashed by Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures, and can be seen below. The new trailer is only slightly longer than the first trailer's 2:19 run time, but includes a bunch of good looks at King Kong, who we previously only had one good peek at in that recent image, as well as some other creatures who call Skull Island home. In addition to the new trailer, a pair of new posters have also been released. Continue below to check them out.

First Official 'Kong: Skull Island' Image Shows How Massive King Kong Might Be
By The Movie God | @ | July 15th, 2016 at 2:30 pm
When we found out that there was plans to make a Godzilla vs. King Kong movie, many wondered how Kong would stand a chance against Godzilla considering how insanely big the lizard was in the 2014 reboot. Clearly Kong was going to need a big size boost if they were going to make it interesting.
Then last month the size of the new Kong in the upcoming Kong: Skull Island was revealed to be around 100 feet. Though much bigger than the usual 25 to 50 feet, it was still nowhere Godzilla's 350+ feet. Whether Godzilla vs. King Kong will ever get made is unknown. But for today we have the first official Skull Island image, and it offers an idea of just how huge Kong might be. It's one thing for someone to say 100 feet. It's another thing entirely to actually see what it might look like. Check out the image below.

A guide showing how to power the iPhone 5 with a Beninese power outlet using the Apple USB Lightning cable and a Type C Europlug power charger and how to charge the iPhone 5 using a Type E USB charger.
Different standards and sockets can often lead to confusion when planning to travel to another country if you've never been there before. This page has been specifically written to prevent you needing to worry if you'll be able to charge the iPhone 5 when you are visiting abroad.The following instructions shows you how to charge your iPhone 5 when staying in Benin using the standard E or C type Beninese 220 volt 50Hz plug outlets. If you are visiting Benin from a different region please double check your iPhone 5 can be charged using a 240v supply. If the iPhone 5 was purchased in a country which uses a lower voltage such as 120 volts make sure your iPhone 5 is dual voltage (indicated by 100-240 volts) otherwise you may need to use an additional power transformer to stop the device from being damaged when powering up. These instructions assume you are running Apple iOS 7 or greater on the iPhone 5.
Can the iPhone 5 be used in Benin?
What is the best power adapter for recharging the iPhone 5 in Benin?
Yes, you can connect the iPhone 5 to a Beninese power outlet by using a power adaptor.
If you are travelling to more than one country or bringing more than your iPhone 5 the best international travel charger for Benin to buy is a multiple USB adapter which includes compatible plugs like a 4 port USB travel charger . Beninois use two different standards of wall outlets (types E and C) and bringing this ensures that you are covered for type C. As these chargers are supplied with interchangeable plugs and handle from 100 volts - 240 volts will mean that you can travel to multiple countries in North America, Europe, Asia and Africa simply by changing the included plugs over. If your iPhone 5 can support Fast Charge (note not all USB devices can) then you'll benefit from much quicker recharging times by using one of these USB travel chargers, and compatibility with certain power demanding devices like tablets. This will also allow you to power more than one device simultaneously without needing to pack multiple power chargers on your Beninese trip. Only packing a single international travel charger will also keep the overall weight down, making it ideal to store in hand luggage. Because of their space saving flexibility these types of travel chargers can be used when back at home as well as abroad so when you're not on holiday they can sit overnight charging multiple smartphones and tablets without needing an additional power outlet.
We recommend searching for this type of flexible travel charger at an electronics retailer. The travel charger illustrated here is the 4 Port USB Wall Charger  which has been tested successfully for charging multiple USB devices in numerous countries around the world.
BESTEK Portable International Travel Voltage Converter - The BESTEK travel adaptor has 4 USB charging ports with 3 AC power outlets and is the most popular portable option for travellers originating from America going to Benin using type B US plug sockets.
BESTEK International USB Travel Power Strip - This power strip has just 2 AC outlets but offers 5 USB charging ports. This versatile power strip is compatible with both American plugs and popular plug types A, D,E/F, G, H, I, L and N making it suitable for most travellers from around the world visiting Benin.
A guide showing you how to recharge your iPhone 5 with a Beninese power outlet with a Lightning Apple cable and a Europlug Type C USB charger.
In order to supply power to your iPhone 5 from a Beninese power outlet you will need to use a Type C USB power adapter  and a USB to Apple Lightning cable  (Apple usually include the cable when you buy your iPhone 5).
First you'll need to insert the Type C USB power adapter in the power outlet. You can identify the power supply by the 2 circular adjacent holes where the twin pins go.
Then connect the USB end of the USB to Apple Lightning cable into the USB mains adapter and the other end into the Lightning connector on the iPhone 5. The iPhone 5 Lightning connector can be found at bottom of your iPhone 5 under the home button.
The battery icon which appears in the top right hand corner of your iPhone 5 will display a charge icon to indicate that the iPhone 5 is charging which takes between 1 to 4 hours to completely recharge to full capacity.
Using the Apple Lightning cable and a Type E USB adapter to power the iPhone 5 from a Beninese power outlet.
If you want to supply power to the iPhone 5 using a Beninese power outlet you'll need a Type E USB power adapter  and a USB to Apple Lightning cable  - typically already included with the iPhone 5.
Begin the process by taking the Type E USB power adapter and inserting it in the Beninese power outlet. You can recognise this power outlet by two large holes 19mm adjacent to each other and a single metal grounding pin protruding the top in a triangular pattern.
Plug in one end of the Apple Lightning power cord into the bottom of the power adapter and the other end into the Lightning connector on the iPhone 5. The iPhone 5 Lightning connector is situated at bottom of your iPhone 5 under the home button.
The battery icon that you'll find in the top right hand corner of the phone will display a charging icon to indicate that the phone is recharging taking around 60 to 240 minutes to completely recharge.
Type E USB power adapter - Provides USB power from a type E mains power outlet, estimated cost between $15 to $20.

A few years ago I had the privilege to have a public discussion about evolution at McMaster University with Dr. Jonathan Stone who is a computational biologist, the professor at Mac who teaches biological evolution, and who is also the associate director of the Origins Institute at McMaster. We had the discussion recorded and I just got around to uploading it.
This declaration has made its way into almost every university textbook on evolution. So Jonathan and I thought that this statement would be an ideal one to frame our discussion around. He defended the proposition while I refuted it. We had 30 minutes each for our opening arguments and then shorter intervals where we could rebut the others' points.
It was a pleasure to share the platform that night with Dr. Stone in a public venue on campus. Though we had opposite convictions on this issue I found him to be a gracious speaker who stuck to the issues.
For some time I have been wanting to put this up so that others interested in this topic can view our discussion. You can view the entire 97 minute event as one video here, or you can view it in chunks below since I broke the evening down into three main sections: Jonathan's opening argument, my opening argument, and then our rebuttals. Unfortunately the last minute or so was cut off in the last video. I hope you find it that it stimulates your thinking on this topic.

Book review: "Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal" by Christopher Moore
March 22, 2017 Patrick T Reardon 0
As Biff notes at the beginning of Christopher Moore's comic 2002 novel Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal, his friend's name was Joshua.
Jesus, he explains, is a Greek translation of the Hebrew name Yeshua. Also, Christ isn't his last name. It's Greek for the Hebrew word messiah, meaning anointed. Biff goes on:
I have no idea what the "H" in Jesus H. Christ stood for. It's one of the things I should have asked him.
That gives you an idea of the general tone of Lamb and of Levi who is called Biff, one in a long line of Christopher Moore characters who are ribald, raunchy, cheeky, confused, intrepid, vibrant and — did I mention? — randy smart alecks with a heart of gold.
Here, for instance, is how Biff summarizes the gist of virtually every sermon he ever heard Joshua give:
"You should be nice to people, even creeps."
Generations of Christian theologians would probably nit-pick that teaching to death, and, yet, really, isn't that the heart of Christianity?
"Lush blossoms"
Here's the thing about Lamb:
It's very funny and outrageous and in the worst possible taste, as in this scene:
The new guy…noticed some flowers growing where Joshua had just relieved himself. Lush blossoms of a half dozen vibrant colors stood surrounded by the deadest landscape on the planet. "Hey, were those there yesterday?"
"That always happens," I said. "We don't talk about it."
At the same time, though, in its own weird and wacky way, Lamb is a reverent attempt to tell and understand the story of Jesus.
Real-life angst
In some of his novels, Moore approaches his task with the sole aim of having zany fun. In others, though, there's an added layer of real-life angst that he appears to be dealing with.
For instance, his 2006 book A Dirty Job is about death. It's hilarious, but it grapples in a real way with the fact and mystery that humans live their lives, knowing they will die. And then they die.
In his 2009 novel Fool, Moore tackles a related subject, the pain and terror of growing old. It's a re-telling — a randy and raucous re-telling — of Shakespeare's King Lear, and, like Lear, Moore rages at the deterioration that comes with age and the death that follows.
Something similar is going on in Lamb. The bulk of this book deals with the 30 years that Joshua lived before starting his public ministry, years about which very little is known.
Moore uses the few pieces of information from the Gospels and other non-Biblical Christian accounts as a thin framework on which to describe Joshua and Biff as children, their friendship with Mary Magdalene (called Maggie) and their nearly two decades of wandering in the East where, under the tutelage of the three Wise Men, they study Buddhism and other spiritual traditions.
Swarming with frogs?
Biff is the sort of best friend of a goody-two-shoes guy who gets into trouble so the goody-two-shoes guy doesn't have to. For instance, Joshua remains celibate throughout their journeyings. Biff, not. (What a surprise!)
Joshua can be witty now and again, but Biff takes those bon mots as invasions of his personal territory because, if nothing else, Levi who is known as Biff is always ready with a wisecrack.
Often, when he says something truly off the wall and Joshua looks at him with a raised eyebrow, Biff will cite chapter and verse from the Bible — although it's a Bible no one else has read:
Dalmatians 9:7
Imbeciles 3:7
Excretions 3:6
Amphibians 5:7
(One does wonder what a biblical book of Amphibians might feature — a land swarming with frogs? a prophet inside a whale? a lying serpent? Oh, wait,….)
(One does not really want to consider the subject matter of the book of Excretions.)
"Torah!"
Of course, Biff's Creator — no, not Joshua's Dad; I mean Christopher Moore — engages in his own sorts of silliness, such as his need, every once in a while, to let loose a big fat pun:
Quipping to a Roman soldier, Biff says, "Semper fido."
Later, in a similar situation, to indicate his own lack of threat to the soldier, Biff says, "Whimper fidelis."
With the Buddhist monks, Biff is taught a special martial art created just for him, called "Jew-do, meaning the way of the Jew."
One chapter opens with an epigraph: "Torah! Torah! Torah!" — war cry of the kamikaze rabbis.
"A crock of rancid yak butter"
Less silly, but also funny, are moments seeded into the story in which Joshua hears or experiences something that, the reader knows, will later pop up in the Gospels, such as:
Hearing Biff's construction foreman father talk about the stupidity of one of his clients in building on sand, Joshua says, "I'll have to remember that."
After knocking at the door of a Buddhist monastery and being forced to wait three days in the cold, Joshua decides, "When I'm in charge, if someone knocks, they will be able to come in. Making someone who is seeking comfort stand out in the cold is a crock of rancid yak butter." To which, Biff adds, "Amen."
A yeti is so happy to have Joshua as a friend that he licks Joshua's cheek again and again. Biff says, "I guess that the creature must have a tongue as rough as a cat's as Joshua's cheek was going pink with abrasion. 'Turn the other cheek, Josh,' I said."
When Biff is going to masquerade as an Indian goddess to save a bunch of children, Joshua says, "They're not going to buy that a burr-headed Jewish kid is their goddess of destruction." To which, Biff responds, "O ye of little faith."
Another scene will sound familiar to those familiar with the Gospels, but not exactly as you may remember it.
Joshua is talking with a prostitute and tells her, "Go, and sin no more."
"Right," she says, and what do I do for a living then, shovel shit?"
"I should have known right then"
Amid and within the humor in Lamb is a kind of aching for Joshua, a recognition by Biff (and Moore) that life as the messiah couldn't have been all that easy.
At one point, Biff admonishes Maggie, "You shouldn't make fun of him. He's trying very hard."
At another, Joshua says somewhat plaintively to Biff, "I think I understand hope. I'm just not sure that I am allowed to have any."
When the two boys are at the Temple with their families to sacrifice a lamb, Biff has a panic attack thinking of the innocent creature going to the slaughter.
Joshua grabs him and says, "It's God's will." Then he lays his hands on Biff's head, and his friend calms down and is able to breathe again. "It's all right, Biff. God's will," Joshua says and smiles. Biff goes on:
Joshua had put the lamb he'd been carrying on the ground, but it didn't run away. I suppose I should have known right then.
You can read Lamb for Christopher Moore's wit and wackiness.
You can read it for how he goes right to the edge of propriety — and then jumps over the line with both feet.
You can read it as a clever way of bringing a modern sensibility to a story told over and over again for thousands of years.
But you won't come away from Lamb without feeling sad.
Biff loves Joshua and is grief-stricken at what happens to his gentle, funny, smart and loving friend.
All the wit in the world wouldn't erase that, and I don't think Biff (or Moore) would want it to.
The story of Jesus is a sad story, even if you factor the resurrection into the narrative. Either way, an innocent lamb is led to the slaughter.
As Joshua is fond of saying, "It's God's will."

Reserve up to two hours per day on the CNC router, and four hours total per week. For longer jobs, please check-in with staff before starting your project. All reservations stop 30 minutes before closing for cleanup.
You can also come in to see if the CNC router is available for walk-ins, if the machine is not reserved it is available on a first-come, first-served basis!
Our Carvey CNC router. This machine carves wood, MDF, and other materials, even some metals, using a router bit and an online computer program called Easel. It can cut materials up to 8 inches wide, 12 inches long, and 1.5 inches deep. We provide several types of bits for different kinds of cutting.
CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control. A computer converts a two or three dimensional design to coordinates on a graph. Technically, the laser cutter and 3D printers are also CNC machines, but since wood carvers have been around for far longer, they've adopted the name. The machine then uses motors to move the manufacturing device (extruder, laser lens, router bit) to those coordinates to produce the desired result. This, folks, is why math is AWESOME. Learn how this works.
How do patrons use the CNC machine?
Patrons can reserve time on the Carvey by clicking the 'reserve the CNC' button above. If you've never used it before and/or are unsure of the process, feel free to stop by the MakerSpace and speak with our staff about your project.
Patrons will provide their own items to be cut/engraved. We have included a list below of allowable materials. Patrons will also need to have files in order to create the cutting tracks. The machine uses an online program called Easel to prepare files for cutting. See the section 'How do I set up my files?' below.
We provide the bits required for all allowable materials including smaller, more precise printed circuit board bits for making circuit boards.
Be prepared to spend your first session working on your file and testing! MakerSpace staff can help you with settings and some amount of setup. Also know that since this method cuts materials, you may want to bring scrap or extra for your first project.
The Carvey is paired with a very easy-to-use cloud-based free software called Easel. With Easel, you can create simple files (words, shapes, etc.), import SVG files, or even import CAM files directly. You can set up your own account and create projects and log in from the MakerSpace computers OR you can come with your files and use the library's account. If you're working on a project you'd like to keep over time or do again, we recommend creating an account. It is free to set up an account.
What materials can I cut?
You will find a list of allowable materials below. Please note that ONLY these materials can be cut. If you're unsure of what a material is, we will not cut it. MakerSpace staff is not qualified to determine what materials are made of. Some materials can break bits and/or are not appropriate for this kind of technique.
I've never used this thing before--will there be someone to help me?
Of course! We don't expect everyone to be familiar with CNC machines. Feel free to stop by with questions about your project or if you'd like to stop by just to see how it works and get some ideas, we'll be happy to help.
How large/deep/wide can it cut?
It can accommodate materials eight inches by twelve inches and can cut up to a 2.75 inches deep. It does require some space around the design to allow for clamping, so you'll get less mileage out of that piece than, say, the laser cutter.
The time it takes varies on the size of the project, whether you are cutting or engraving, and the file. We haven't spent a lot of time with it yet, so we don't really know! It seems to take a while, though, depending on how large, deep, and surface area intensive your design is.
The CNC is free to use. Patrons must bring their own materials for cutting/engraving. We provide the bits.
How do I get/make a cutting file?
Check out our section above called 'How do I set up my files?'. Basically, you can create files using the free software Easel by importing SVG files into it. You can also download cutting projects from various sources on the web including Thingiverse and Inventables.You can find many SVG files online or make them using software like Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape, or Corel Draw (you can find all of these in the MakerSpace).
Learn how to create files in Easel to work with the Carvey.
Don't know how to use the software? Check out Lynda.com with free online tutorials for all patrons with a library card!


She writes: "The actual process of mediation takes place, de Zengotita explains, when what is real is represented through any form of media (think of anything from a home video to a multimillion-dollar biopic). As representations grow in variety, sophistication, and intensity, they create what he calls a "psychic sauna" of experiences, sensations, and options that we glide over the surface of, like "a little god, dipping in here and there. . . ." In a mediated world, the flattered self is the center of the universe—the consumer, the viewer, the holder of the remote control—able to opt in or out whether it be in regard to a television set or reality itself. And indeed, technological advancements make it harder and harder to even tell the difference between the two. (Take a movie like Troy, where it's impossible to distinguish the real sets, which are themselves representations of the real city of Troy, from the computer-generated ones.) And as the flood of representation becomes faster, more sensational and ubiquitous, we rarely even make the time or effort to distinguish between what is real and what is synthetic, simulated, or replicated."


I'm remodeling my basement, in a 1971 house in climate 4c (seattle) and trying to make sure I get the vapor barrier right.
I'm planning to add drywall to that, and am considering whether to do a layer of membrain or other vapor barrier between the plywood and the drywall.
I'm also curious whether the plywood (vapor semi-permeable?) is already creating a vapor barrier (and a non-smart one), and whether that could be a bad thing regardless of whether I add membrain.
The plywood is already a smart vapor retarder. Plywood has variable vapor permeance. No need to add another layer.
Agreed. Wood is one of the original smart vapor retarders. You do still want to seal against air leaks through the plywood layer as much as possible.
Thanks! I'll skip the additional vapor barrier layer, and caulk/foam any penetrations in the plywood.
The relationship between vapor permeability and moisture content of materials is graphed as an adsorption isotherm. If you go here you can see one uploaded by Sam Glass, a topnotch wood scientist from the Forest Products Lab. Great organization, great guy.

Breaking! Coca-Cola, Nestlé, and PepsiCo Named Top Plastic Polluters For The 2nd Year In A Row
By KarenLapizco
Coca-Cola, Nestlé, and PepsiCo were the top 3 most identified companies in global brand audits for the second year in a row, according to a new report "BRANDED Volume II: Identifying the World's Top Corporate Plastic Polluters."
484 cleanups in over 50 countries and 6 continents, organized by the Break Free From Plastic movement in September, identified the top polluting companies. The rest of the companies rounding out the top 10 polluters are: Mondelēz International, Unilever, Mars, Procter & Gamble, Colgate-Palmolive, Philip Morris, and Perfetti Van Melle.
"This report provides more evidence that corporations urgently need to do more to address the plastic pollution crisis they've created. Their continued reliance on single-use plastic packaging translates to pumping more throwaway plastic into the environment. Recycling is not going to solve this problem. Break Free From Plastic's nearly 1,800 member organizations are calling on corporations to urgently reduce their production of single-use plastic and find innovative solutions focused on alternative delivery systems that do not create pollution," said Von Hernandez, global coordinator of the Break Free From Plastic movement in a statement.
This year's most frequently identified companies in the brand audits – Coca-Cola, Nestlé, and PepsiCo – have offered mostly false solutions to the plastics crisis, underscoring how important it is for voices from beyond the consumer goods sector to demand accountability and call for an end to single-use plastics. The list of top polluters is again filled with some of the world's most commonly known brands.
"Recent commitments by corporations like Coca-Cola, Nestlé, and PepsiCo to address the crisis unfortunately continue to rely on false solutions like replacing plastic with paper or bioplastics and relying more heavily on a broken global recycling system. These strategies largely protect the outdated throwaway business model that caused the plastic pollution crisis, and will do nothing to prevent these brands from being named the top polluters again in the future," said Abigail Aguilar, Plastic Campaign Coordinator for Greenpeace Southeast Asia.
"The products and packaging that brands like Coca-Cola, Nestlé, and PepsiCo are churning out is turning our recycling system into garbage. China has effectively banned the import of the U.S. and other exporting countries' 'recycling,' and other countries are now following suit. Plastic is being burned in incinerators across the world, exposing communities to toxic pollution. We must continue to expose these real culprits of our plastic and recycling crisis," said Denise Patel, U.S. Coordinator for the Global Alliance for Incinerator Alternatives (GAIA).

Gottfried is a masculine German given name.
It is derived from the Old High German name , recorded since the 7th century.
The name is composed of the elements  (conflated from the etyma for 'God' and 'good', and possibly further conflated with ) and  ('peace, protection').

Languedoc-Roussillon is de grootste wijnstreek van Frankrijk en komt ongeveer overeen met de voormalige regio Languedoc-Roussillon. Het strekt zich uit langs de zuidoostkust van de Rhône tot aan de Spaanse grens. Het gebied met schrale hellingen, een droog klimaat en veel zon biedt in principe de natuurlijke omstandigheden die nodig zijn voor het maken van wijnen.

Geschiedenis
De wijncultuur in Frankrijk is hier aan het begin de jaartelling begonnen in de buurt van Narbonne. Het hoogtepunt van de wijnbouw kende dit gebied onder de Romeinen toen wijn uit dit gebied bekendheid genoot in Rome en werd geëxporteerd naar Duitsland. Met de val van het Romeinse Rijk verloor het gebied ook zijn bekendheid. In periode erna werd er nog voornamelijk wijn geproduceerd voor regionale consumptie. In de 13e eeuw werden voor het eerst vin doux natural gemaakt in Perpignan. In de 17e eeuw, toen het gebied meer werd ontsloten, kreeg de wijnbouw opnieuw een impuls. Een groot deel van de productie werd echter gedestilleerd tot eau de vie. In de 19e eeuw kwam er met de industrialisatie ook een toenemende vraag naar wijn. Het gebied werd toen het grootste wijngebied ter wereld, maar de kwaliteit was over het algemeen niet goed. Het ging meer om kwantiteit dan kwaliteit en in de loop van de tijd was er zelfs sprake van overproductie. Pas in de jaren zeventig en tachtig van de 20e eeuw ging men zich in toenemende mate toeleggen op het maken van kwalitatief betere wijnen. In 1987 verenigden een aantal wijnboeren zich en creëerden succesvol de vin de pays d'Oc. Daarnaast waren er in dezelfde tijd een aantal individuele wijnboeren die zich gingen toeleggen op het produceren van topwijnen.

Pays d'Oc
Voorheen 'Vin de pays d'Oc' geheten. Deze landwijn wordt erop gemaakt om te voldoen aan de eisen van de moderne consument die hogere eisen stelt aan kwaliteit, maar ook toegankelijke wijnen wil. Hij wordt in de gehele Languedoc-Roussillon geproduceerd. De wettelijke normen voor deze wijn zijn minder zwaar dan die van de appellation. Druivensoorten van buiten de eigen streek kunnen hiervoor gebruikt worden, zoals chardonnay, merlot en cabernet sauvignon. Op het etiket wordt sinds 2013 naast IGP Pays d'Oc ook een logo en de vermelding Vin de France gebruik. Eveneens hebben de producenten besloten in hun communicatie de Franse herkomst te benadrukken met de slogan: "Vin de France par naissance, vin de qualité par conviction".

Languedoc

Het gebied
Languedoc omvat de departementen Aude, Gard en Hérault. Ook weleens aangeduid met De Midi.

De wijnen
De streek kenmerkt zich door min of meer traditionele terroirwijnen die veelal rood zijn. Van deze wijnen was die uit Fitou in 1948 de eerste met een appellation d'origine contrôlée – AOC – in de jaren tachtig volgden Faugères, Saint-Chinian, Minervois, Corbières en Coteaux du Languedoc die sinds 2007 Languedoc heet. Languedoc is met 50.000 ha en 121 gemeenten de grootste appellation. Een aantal gemeenten mogen hun naam aan de appellation toevoegen. Corbières is 15.000 ha groot en het district Fitou ligt hier middenin. Ten noorden hiervan ligt de Minervois (5000 ha) en oostelijk hiervan de kleinere gebieden Saint-Chinian en Faugères. Naast deze terroirwijnen en de eerder genoemde vin de pays d'Oc worden er in het gebied ook mousserende wijnen gemaakt zoals de blanquette en de crémant de Limoux. Natuurlijk zoete wijnen zijn de vin doux naturel (VDN): muscat de Frontignan en de kleinere AOC's Lunel, Mireval en Saint-Jean de Minervois.

De AOC-AOP's
Cabardès (1999)
Clairette du Languedoc (1948)
Corbières (1985)
Corbières-Boutenac (2005)
Faugères (1982 rood en rosé, 2005 wit)
Fitou (1948)
La Clape (2015)
Languedoc (1982 rood en rosé, 2005 wit)
Limoux (1938 Blanquette en Méthode Ancestrale, 1959 wit stil, 1990 Crémant, 2004 rood stil)
Malepère (2006)
Minervois (1985)
Minervois-La Livinière (1999)
Muscat de Frontignan (1936)
Muscat de Lunel (1943)
Muscat de Mireval (1959)
Muscat Saint Jean de Minervois (1948)
Picpoul de Pinet (2013)
Saint-Chinian (1982 rood en rosé, 2005 wit)

Aanvankelijk behoorde de AOC-AOP Costières de Nîmes ook tot die van Languedoc, maar sinds 2004 wordt hij eigenlijk bij de Rhône ingedeeld.

Roussillon

Het gebied
Roussillon komt ongeveer overeen met het departement Pyrénées-Orientales. Ongeveer 40% van de landbouwgrond is hier met wijngaarden beplant.

De wijnen
In 1977 werden de AOC Côtes du Roussillon en Côtes du Roussillon Villages ingevoerd. In de meeste van deze gemeenten wordt ook Rivesaltes geproduceerd. Roussillon is de grootste producent van VDN in Frankrijk, die zowel in rood als in wit en rosé gemaakt worden. Voor sommige wijnen worden uitsluitend muskaatdruiven gebruikt. De AOC zijn muscat de Rivesaltes dat in Languedoc ligt, Maury en Banyuls.

De AOC-AOP's
Banyuls (1972)
Banyuls grand cru (1972)
Collioure (1971)
Côtes du Rousillon (1977)
Côtes du Rousillon Villages (1977)
Maury (1936)

Basically the issue presents itself more, when a user on a domain uses redirected folders, the redirected folders take on the name 'My Documents', rather than for example, their username which Jalapeno Gio M Sep 19, 2014 at 01:51pm Thank you! Also found that users with no folder redirection would not see this.
Both 1 & 3 work nicely, but 3 seems cleaner to me as it doesn't require any extra folders creating just to get round a display issue. At least I can't think of a situation where that would be warranted...very bad practice. Patrick Timms says: 29/11/2014 at 13:25 In my opinion this is a better fix: http://www.edugeek.net/attachments/forums/general-chat/27767d1417262921-desktop-ini-gpp-fix-schermafbeelding-2014-11-29-om-11.52.11.png Richard says: 01/12/2014 at 08:06 @Patrick Timms Hi Patrick, That group policy looks like it would When i log to the client, the redirection works well.
So, at the server things are good; and logged into a workstation as a domain admin, things are also good; but when I log in as a non domain admin user Steps (9 total) 1 Download The PowerShell Script and save it on the server. Richard says: 14/03/2014 at 10:14 That only works on an individual basis though. So, we are a K-12 School District.
When viewed from win2k3 or WinXP the folders are named correctly. However asample vbscript would still be appreciated as there's 200 folders in which I will need to change this.

The time now is 10:42 PM. Adding a filename column only works for you though and not everyone else. You are correct this setting stops synchronization for all effected by the Group Policy. By PiqueABoo in forum How do you do....it?
If I turn the exclusive option off then teachers can't access the student work either because now all 1500 student folders are called "My Documents". Thank you. Thanks again for your help and quick response. Scott Networking: It's not just a job, it's an OBSSESION!
Is there something in the script I need to change? The code we used is: On Error Resume Next Set WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") DocsPath = WSHShell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments") If FSO.FileExists (DocsPath & "\desktop.ini") Then FSO.DeleteFile (DocsPath & "\desktop.ini") End Go to: Group Policy -> User Configuration -> Preferences -> Windows Settings -> Ini Files Create a new Ini File entry, with the following settings: Action: Delete File Path: %homeshare%\desktop.ini Section The best solution I have seen yet.
About Slow logon, desktop.ini and folderredirection Finally solved an issue we had been facing with Slow Logons on Windows 7 machines. I did not write it.

The country's gas supply can grow substantially as new technology allows companies to produce from large reserves that were too difficult to access until recently.
Australia has an estimated 819 trillion cubic feet (tcf) of gas resources (enough to power a city of 1 million people for 16,000 years). More discoveries are considered likely.
In 2016, Australia's combined domestic and export gas production was 3.2tcf.
Greater development of the country's extensive gas reserves would greatly enhance energy security as gas is not only abundant, but also reliable and flexible.
Gas is unaffected by weather or the time of day, so it can provide constant power. It can also be easily turned on and off to meet spikes in demand or to fill gaps in other forms of power production.


PESHAWAR: Anti Narcotics Force (ANF) Thursday recovered 0.780 kilograms from bottles of talcum powder here at Bacha Khan Airport.

The FF Plus strongly condemns the incident in which an EFF Member of Parliament, Marshall Dlamini, assaulted a policeman in the Parliamentary buildings after the SONA. Police members are deployed at Parliament by the senior management of the Police Service to offer protection and the assault on the policeman, warrant officer Johan Carstens, only goes..
Commander in Chief of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), Julius Malema, said he was ready to die a martyr, if that meant following through on a mandate that the African National Congress (ANC) failed to deliver on.
CAPE TOWN – Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malemahas told supporters that the red berets will not stop until Athol Trollip is removed as Nelson Mandela Bay mayor.
Commander in Chief of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), Julius Malema, said what happens to the land once it is expropriated is nobody else's business.
One cannot help to wonder whether Ramaphosa, Malema and Mngxitama, in saying that land must be "returned to those it was stolen from", actually means that it should go back to the Khoisan people?
That, in fact, would mean that everybody in SA, apart from a few Kalahari Bushmen, would be homeless.
Patriotic UK commentator Katie Hopkins, who is in South Africa, has asked for a meeting with EFF leader Julius Malema to talk about the Kill the farmer song.


This article is about heavy-duty tow trucks. It describes the design requirements that designers and operators need to comply with. It also describes the access requirements that are likely to be applied to tow truck operators by state and territory authorities. There is no federal in-service regulation for tow trucks, so the design is regulated by the states and described in the various State road-safety regulations and guidelines. Furthermore, the NHVR has no specific powers or responsibilities relating to tow trucks. The design requirements arise from the Australian Design Rules and the modifications code Vehicles Standards Bulletin No 6.
1. Dual tyres on the rear axle groups.
2. Suitable spacer bars and safety chains needed to secure the towed vehicle.
3. A flashing amber light.
4. Work lamps that are used during hours of darkness to illuminate the towing point.
5. A suitable light bar that conforms to the lighting requirements in ADR 13/00.
6. Three portable warning devices.
7. Fire extinguisher (min 4.5 l).
8. Class to be marked on the right-hand side. The class is described in the Table.
9. A class 4 tow truck must have a power operated winch and air brake couplings at the rear for connection to have control of the towed vehicle brakes.
10. The crane (which is defined as a machine for raising and lowering heavy weights) shall be in accordance with the requirements of Australian Standard 1418 "Rules for Cranes", Part 1 ("1977-"General Requirements") and Part 5 (1980 – "Mobile Cranes") and be approved by the relevant authority supervising lifting appliances.
This later point 10 obliges the manufacturer to consider the crane requirements in the Australian Standards series 1418. The definition of a crane is broad enough to include a wheel underlift and the winch system.
Tow truck features on new vehicles can be approved under the identification plate (IPA) system (Road Vehicle Certification System – RVCS) that is governed by the Motor Vehicle Standards Act. If a new vehicle carries a valid Identification Plate and if the equipment was accurately described in the IPA application, then the state and territory road agencies should accept the fitment of the equipment without further approval being necessary. The tow truck features will usually be added to a chassis-cab vehicle by a 'second stage manufacturer'.
Tow trucks will usually be constructed by a specialist body-installer rather than an OEM. The applicable vehicle modification code for a modified new (dealer-arranged) or in-service tow truck is VSB 6, Section T.
The design of the tow truck crane must be in accordance with the relevant parts in AS 1418.1, AS 1418.5, AS 1418.11 and AS 1418.20 (which has now been superseded by AS 5400). These standards specify factors of safety for the crane, underlift, winch, steel rope and jib / hook.
Stability under towing is also a factor that needs to be considered. Tow trucks should be designed so that the front axle is not unweighted to less than 60 per cent of the tare weight when a load is lifted at the back with no tray load. Note the heavy tow trucks operating under a type B permit can be eligible for a 7.0 tonne steer axle to assist with steering when towing.
There are no tow truck specific lighting requirements. Beacon lights and additional gantry lights are acceptable assuming they are ADR approved types.
Reinforcement of the chassis rails will be needed at the lifting cross-member.
Air brake couplings are required on a heavy-duty tow truck to control the brakes on the towed vehicle.
As a guide the wheel underlift on a 10 tonne tilt-tray tow truck should not lift more than 1.8 – 2t. This is determined by point 3 above. A design factor of safety of 3 is appropriate so the underlift mechanism should be capable of lifting six tonnes in this example.
Emergency stops must be fitted at all control stations.
The capacity of the under or crane must not exceed the GVM or GCM of the towing vehicle. Any component that has the capacity to lift a load that can exceed these ratings needs to be marked down accordingly with a notice placed in a prominent position.
Adequate safety factors must be applied (e.g. 4x for hydraulic hoses, 2.5x for other hydraulic equipment. Factors of Safety related to structures, cables and hoists should be a minimum of 3 as a general rule. See the table below showing how safety factors can be determined).
Hydraulic equipment and controls shall comply with the relevant requirements in AS1418.
Hydraulic controls are to have operational illustrations.
Pneumatic equipment and controls shall comply with the relevant requirements in AS1418.
The recovery winch shall comply with EN14492-1 or SAE J706 and the information marked on recovery winches must be in SI units.
Chains, ropes, webbing, hooks, and shackles to comply with nominated technical standards and to be marked accordingly (see the Table).
The force needed to pull each tonne of car weight up a 25o ramp assuming a factor of safety of six is 6 x 0.43 = 2.6t.
The following general operational requirements are applicable to heavy- duty tow trucks. Note that there are some requirements that are state and territory specific.
As per state road rules, a vehicle cannot be towed unless the driver can control the movement of the towed vehicle.
If the towed vehicle's laden mass is greater the 3.5 x the towing vehicle's tare mass. The towing, vehicle must be able to control the towed vehicle's brake system.
Tow truck operators must carry equipment such as a broom, shovel or bucket for the removal of debris and glass.
Flat towing or partial lift towing should be conducted when safe to do so in order to minimise axle loadings and resulting stress on bridges. A light-board must be fitted and if towing at night time or low visibility the side marker lamps must be on. If these cannot be switched on, portable side marker lights must be fitted.
Only one vehicle can be towed unless authorised by a police officer or a specific permit.
In addition to both ADR 44/02 and VSB 6, some road agencies specify equipment requirements on heavy vehicle tow-trucks because of their heavy-duty nature.
For example, in Victoria heavy duty tow trucks operating under a type B permit and towing accident damaged or incapacitated vehicles must have an on-board weighing device that measures the load on the rear axles and constantly displays the recording.

True Value to offer free fluorescent light bulb recycling
Residents can receive a $10 off coupon towards the purchase of light emitting diodes (LEDs) while coupons last.

Information provided by San Benito County Integrated Waste Management
San Benito County Integrated Waste Management announced residents can now recycle their unbroken fluorescent lamps free at True Value, located at 1260 Fourth Street in Hollister.
The news release said in early 2022, San Benito County Integrated Waste Management (SBCIWM) was awarded a grant from the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) to expand access to recycling opportunities for household hazardous waste, including fluorescent light recycling, and provide eco-friendly alternatives such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
"Fluorescent lights contain mercury, a potent and persistent neurotoxin," the release said. "Fluorescent lights that break pose a serious health risk to consumers and solid waste management workers. Fluorescent lights are considered household hazardous waste at end-of-life and must be disposed of at a designated location. It is illegal to dispose of fluorescent lights in your trash or recycling."
The release said the grant project also includes the distribution of over 600 coupons valued at $10 applicable towards the purchase of LEDs, redeemable at True Value in Hollister.
Waste Management added that LED alternatives are better for you and the environment.
"They do not contain mercury," the release said. "Because LEDs use half as much electricity as fluorescents, retrofitting a small office could save $6,000 over a typical LED lamp's lifetime, while a school could save as much as $24,000. LEDs also reduce replacement costs and waste because they last 2–3 times longer than fluorescents and do not need hazardous waste disposal."
San Benito County residents can also bring their fluorescent lights and other household hazardous waste, including batteries and paint, to the monthly household hazardous waste collection event at John Smith Road Landfill every third Saturday of the month from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.

About this course: This course will teach you find out how to construct models for natural language, audio, and other sequence knowledge. Identify of a supported database vendor that this model is restricted to. Current built-in vendor names are: sqlite, postgresql, mysql, oracle. An Motion COULD have none, one or more refinement property values (of kind Constraint) that refine the semantics of the Action operation.
The intention of the ODRL Information Model is to enable versatile Coverage expressions by allowing the policy author to incorporate as much, or as little, detail in the Policies. Similar varieties of protocols are utilized in each models. Present youngsters images of the parts of the circulatory system in "Photographic Atlas of the Body" by Arran Frood.
Also different from earlier iPhone models, the amount buttons usually are not on a rocker – they are individual buttons which can be marked with a plus and minus sign. For exams involving models with managed=False, it is up to you to ensure the right tables are created as part of the check setup.
The Set Coverage subclass can be the default subclass of Policy (if none is specified). Proper now, I am just content to be a collector of Suydam HO brass traction models. Models are used to cost insurance coverage products and to make sure insurance firms hold enough cash in reserve to pay for claims in the future (and without that your insurance coverage policy could be nugatory).
ManyToManyField requires a positional argument: the class to which the model is expounded. Simply as with Python's subclassing, it's doable for a Django model to inherit from a number of parent models. Youngsters presented sport present themed video games related to the human body or different creative displays, and we had a techniques-of-the-human-physique-themed meal.

Records of hospitals, charities and other caring organisations
London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) hold a vast and diverse collection of archives, records, images, films and maps which can help researchers in all aspects of London's history to develop their knowledge. View just some of the many collections highlights here.
Some of the most important records we hold are from the Church of England parishes spread across the London area. From the records, genealogists can trace records of baptisms, marriages and burials as far back as records begin in many cases. These records can also tell us more about localities and parish administration as well as individuals, and we hold many more records of religion as well.
There is much more depth to the collections at LMA. We hold records of 1000 years of London Government. We have detailed records of buildings, engineering projects and architecture, and highways and transportation including road, rail and waterborne transport is also covered.
LMA is home to records for a large number of organisations concerned with people's individual health and wellbeing, and you can find out more about the care of the sick, dispossessed and destitute.
Educational records, include details of wartime evacuation, school attendance records and records about the organisation and structure of the educational system in London. Records from a wide variety of sources help us to track the social activities of London and Londoners. Similarly, the movement and migration of individuals and communities into and around London is covered in a multitude of sources.
The records of ancient manors and estates are a rich source of information for social, economic, local and family history. Through documents such as court rolls, field surveys and lists of tenants, a researcher can reveal the complexity of a community; identifying officials, witnessing minor crimes, tracing land use and learning who held economic power. They can also track urban development, to reveal how quiet medieval hamlets miles away from the small town of London became suburbs of the vast city. Court and other legal records help trace the development of justice systems in London and beyond, as well as enabling researchers to discover the fates of individuals from all walks of society.
The vast array of business records we hold cover all manner of organisations from giant breweries to the smallest traders.
The LMA Library boasts over 10,000 books specializing on all aspects of London history, and includes many guides and useful information for carrying out your research into whatever aspect of London's amazing history you are interested in.
LMA's collections are designated as being of national and international importance.

Sturgeon says EU should mediate over Catalonia
By Michael Crick
Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has told this programme the EU should mediate an agreement between the Catalan and Spanish governments. There's significant support for the Catalan separatist movement at the SNP annual conference, but the leadership has been careful not to interfere in the dispute that has raged in Spain. Nicola Sturgeon has insisted that her aspiration to call another referendum on Scottish independence has not been erased by the general election, which saw the party lose a third of its Westminster seats. But fighting what she calls "extreme Brexit" is the party's most urgent priority.
