We present the most comprehensive recovery and treatment tools in the area. All these services are hand-picked based on evidence and effectiveness. Most of these services do not require additional costs or appointments unless specified.
The NormaTec Pulse Recovery System helps you recover faster between workouts by reducing muscle soreness and improving circulation. Try it for yourself at RXSR and confirm the hype. This science-backed recovery tool has demonstrated accelerating recovery, upregulating muscle function, improve range-of-motion, and increase blood-flow.
At RXSR we deliver the entire experience with providing the legs, hips, and/or arms. We can help with any region of your body in need of recovery.
The Compex USA units otherwise known as neuromuscular electric stimulation, muscle stim, or e-stim, is delivered through a small device that sends electric pulses to your nerve fibers in order to create involuntary, non-fatiguing muscle contractions.
Regular usage at RXSR can speed up recovery by flushing waste products, generate endorphin production, and increase blood-flow. Rehabbing or recovering an injury? Stimulate muscle fibers such as Type I (endurance) or Type II (power & explosiveness) to introduce muscle responsiveness and strength.
Gone are the days athletes plunge in an ice tub for recovery. Contrast therapy creates vasodilation (opening) and vasoconstriction (closing) of vessels in the body. Combine the tubs as a sequence and create circulation to increase blood flow for powerful recovery. Our contrast whirlpools temperatures are closely monitored for maximum benefits that have been scientifically proven for effectiveness [Read Here]. Upgrade your water submersion recovery at RXSR.
Finish your recovery session at RXSR with the infrared sauna. This sauna is one of our most valuable players as it stimulates cell metabolism via infrared light. Evidence indicates cells absorb photons from light and transform to adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the form of energy that cells utilize. While you sit, your cells are repairing and regenerating. The benefits do not stop at pain control and tissue repair. Other uses include weight loss, detox, relaxation, and improved circulation.
You will have a hard time going back to your basic foam roller after using our Hyperice vibrating foam rollers and Hypervolt hand-held massager. Enhance and expedite your recovery from tight or sore muscles with these myofascial tools to increase range of motion and blood flow.
The Theragun is not a massager. It is locked and loaded to deliver the best neuro-muscluar treatment there is. It has the perfect amplitude, frequency and torque to deliver percussion vibration therapy for recovery and muscle activation. It is roaming around the facility and you can grab it anytime to use or our staff can help reach those hard-to-reach areas such as hamstrings.
Cupping is a therapeutic suction technique used across many practices to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, and relaxation and well-being. For our athletes, this modality is helpful for tendonitis, tight muscles, tight fascia, and increasing blood flow to an area. We manipulate the cups in a variety of ways such as keeping the cup still and moving the body part, moving the cup while the body part is still, or keeping the cup still while the athlete moves their own body part.

Kinesio Tape application is a technique used to provide support and stability to joints and muscles without restricting range of motion. Typical uses for kinesio taping at RXSR is posture stability, tendinitis, ligament sprains, inflammation, or muscle strains. We also provide instruction on best taping techniques for you to apply yourself at home. Click here for cost.
RXSR partners with Cactus Spine & Sport, P.C. and Kristen Valentin, PT DPT to provide Trigger Point Dry Needling services.
Another option for your musculoskeletal injury. A myofascial trigger point consists of multiple contraction knots which are related to the production and maintenance of the pain cycle and general muscle function. TPDN is inserting the needle into the skin and muscle, directly at a myofascial trigger point.
Training over time can result in tight muscles and "knots" that may cause pain, limit mobility, and result in poor postural alignment, which all have a negative effect on your training and performance. TPDN can decrease pain and increase mobility to aid in returning you to training and competing at your highest level. By appointment only. Click here for cost.
This is the latest evidence-based practice in rehabilitative and performance settings. The idea is if you restrict the muscle blood flow, it performs anaerobically (without oxygen). Functioning anaerobically increases the use of Type II fibers and more secretion of human growth hormone. This is crucial for muscle rehabilitation because simple movements yield max gains. Blood flow restriction training is commonly used for muscle strains, tendinitis, and hypertrophy (growth/strength) of a weak muscle group.
Discover recovery by methods of sports massage. Our therapists have experience with athletes of all levels. Massage sessions are conveniently offered onsite at RX Sports Recovery by Unlock | Bodyworks, a massage therapy group based in Denver. Contact RX Sports Recovery about scheduling onsite.

Flossing has replaced applying ice to an area for swelling. Don't believe us? Try it for yourself. Ridding the body of swelling requires lymphatic stimulation and the best way to deliver that is compression with movement. These voodoo floss bands are great for common joints (ankle, knee) to increase range of motion, reduce swelling, and maximize strength. The definite MVP for common ankle sprains.


Griffith resident Pinkal Patel is adamant that only new construction and a drop in the price of leases for rental houses will allow people to live in suitable and desirable housing. Having run his business in town for the last three years Mr Patel said he has become aware of several instances in which families of new immigrants to Australia have been lying to their landlords about the number of people they intend to have living in their homes. Although he believes the housing situation works for some people Mr Patel says it's a practice which needs to stop. "I have seen a couple of families where when they apply for a house, say on paper its four people (living there). But, when you go inside there are 10 or 15 people living inside the house," Mr Patel said. His main concerns are that such situations damage houses and drive down their value. He also believes such situations are unpleasant for many residents forced to live with unwanted and sometimes abusive family members, being unable to pay the rent and even find a house available to move out buy themselves. "People need to understand that they have to abide by the laws, it does more damage (to houses) for sure." Among the solutions being aired in the federal election, Labor candidate for Farrer Kieran Drabsch is pushing for more social housing to be built. If elected Mr Drasch said he will increase funding for the NSW Family and Community Services (FACS) as well as the Linking Communities Network to provide more social and crisis housing in Griffith. With Labor promising to deliver $1.7 billion of investment into social housing if they win at the federal election Mr Drabsch said he has been lobbying his colleagues in Canberra this week, requesting some of the cheddar to be sent this way. If he wins Mr Drabsch said he will be willing to work with Member for Murray Helen Dalton to deliver more funding for FACS and the LCN. However, he did not give a dollar figure. Related Mr Drabsch also said if elected he will lobby to extend the period over which providers of housing services can receive tenders for their services to the government, and will fight to reduce the level of competition facing providers to deliver services at lower costs. "We need to look at ways at which we can create a more secure funding for the providers of these services," Mr Drabsch said. "Groups that have long track record of delivering quality service shouldn't be made to be at each other's throats, the idea that every community every three years can have this wonderful competitive process that is going to deliver cheaper dividends and better outcomes is flawed." Responding to the comments Member for Farrer Sussan Ley said "the only difference in (Labor's) housing policy is Labor's $32 billion in housing taxes which will abolish negative gearing, reduce the value of homes and push up rents." When asked whether Labor's plans to remove negative gearing will create less intensive for developers in the private housing sector Mr Drabsch disagreed. "I'll think you'll find a lot of that lower interest in housing is to do with the banking royal commission also the global economy is slowing down, investors are becoming more risk averse in general," Mr Drabsch said.

Financial sustainability, a new funding model for Forsyth Barr Stadium and detecting potential fraud might be its highest priorities risks, Audit NZ has suggested to the Dunedin City Council's new audit and risk subcommittee.
Complying with legislation was not such an issue for the council, but it should work on putting all its management policies and procedures into one document so there was broad understanding of everything happening in that area, Audit NZ audit director Ian Lothian said.
Mr Lothian made the comments to the subcommittee at its first meeting yesterday, after being asked by chairwoman and independent member Susie Johnstone, an accountant, what he would prioritise given he had earlier in the meeting outlined a substantial list of potential tasks for the new subcommittee.
The other members of the subcommittee, which was re-formed by the council after a hiatus last term, are councillors Richard Thomson, Chris Staynes and Hilary Calvert, and Invercargill-based employment law specialist Janet Copeland.
Lee Vandervis also sat in and contributed to the meeting.
Although he is not a member of the committee, as a councillor he is entitled to sit in and speak if he wishes, but not to vote.
Mr Lothian emphasised the importance of strong and appropriate governance and audit controls, particularly internally.
Ratepayers needed to know the council was doing its work effectively, wanted to be secure in the knowledge that when they asked for information it was there to be acted on and to know they were getting as good a service as any other ratepayers would get from other councils, he said.
Financial stability was still a significant risk, although the council had already done some good work in reviewing the governance of its subsidiaries and having the chief financial officer overseeing the companies' as well as the council's finances.
Stadium finances were still clearly a risk for the council, but it was doing the right thing in reviewing the stadium's financial and operating models.
On fraud, it was ''sadly'' the case that organisations sometimes thought it could not happen to them.
However, things could go awry, especially when cash was being handled, he said.
It was better to avoid having any ''expectation gap'' in that area and the most common way of finding any fraud was to have strong internal controls.
The subcommittee also considered its terms of reference and agreed it would likely recommend to council they be redefined.
They also discussed meeting schedules and requested a paper on the council's various health and safety policies and procedures.
Topics discussed at the first meeting were broad, Mrs Johnstone said, but that was the nature of the first meeting of a new entity, and members would consider matters more specifically as they went along.

Wybory parlamentarne w Izraelu we wrześniu 2019 roku – wybory do Knesetu XXII kadencji odbyły się 17 września.

W kwietniu 2019 odbyły się przyśpieszone wybory parlamentarne, które wyłoniły Kneset dwudziestej pierwszej kadencji. Ponieważ w wyznaczonym terminie Binjaminowi Netanjahu z Likudu nie udało się sformować nowego rządu, 29 maja Kneset przegłosował większością 74:25 samorozwiązanie. Nowe wybory parlamentarne zaplanowano na 17 września.

W wrześniowych wyborach zwyciężyła koalicja Niebiesko-Biali (33 mandaty), przed Likudem (32) i arabską Zjednoczoną Listą (13). Do Knesetu dostały się także Szas (9), Nasz Dom Izrael (8), Zjednoczony Judaizm Tory (7), Jamina (7), Partia Pracy-Geszer (6) oraz Obóz Demokratyczny (5).

Ponieważ w wyznaczonym terminie ani Binjaminowi Netanjahu z Likudu, ani przywódcy Niebiesko-Białych Beniemu Gancowi nie udało się sformować nowego rządu, 12 grudnia Kneset przegłosował samorozwiązanie. Nowe wybory parlamentarne zaplanowano na 2 marca 2020.

Tło wydarzeń
Od 30 kwietnia do 30 maja 2019 roku Binjamin Netanjahu miał czas na utworzenie koalicji rządzącej na nową kadencję XXI Knesetu. 15 kwietnia 2019 roku partie ortodoksyjne (Szas i Zjednoczony Judaizm Tory) osiągnęły porozumienie z Unią Partii Prawicowych, że utworzą wspólny blok negocjacyjny tworzący przeciwwagę dla postulatów Awigdora Libermana i jego partii Nasz Dom Izrael. Najdłuższe rozmowy prowadzone były właśnie przez ugrupowanie Liebermana i Likud. Netanjahu chcąc utrzymać przychylność partii ortodoksyjnych nie chciał zgodzić się na przegłosowanie zaproponowanego przez Nasz Dom Izrael, w poprzedniej kadencji, prawa poboru Żydów ortodoksyjnych do armii. Lieberman uznał, że warunkiem przystąpienia jego ugrupowania do koalicji jest wprowadzenie tego prawa w życie. Doprowadziło to do sytuacji patowej, która zmusiła Netanjahu i Likud do przegłosowania ustawy o rozwiązaniu Knesetu. Ostatecznie Lieberman oskarżył Likud o skapitulowanie wobec ortodoksji. Negocjatorzy Likudu uznali żądania Naszego Domu Izrael za szalone, a Netanjahu stwierdził, iż Lieberman jest winny niepowodzenia utworzenia prawicowej koalicji, co stawia go na równi z lewicą. Z kolei lider Szasu – Arje Deri – oskarżył Liebermana o antysemityzm i reprezentowanie grup społecznych, których wkład w życie państwa jest znikomy.

System wyborczy
120 deputowanych do Knesetu wybieranych jest w ordynacji proporcjonalnej z zamkniętych list w jednym ogólnokrajowym okręgu wyborczym. Próg wyborczy w wyborach wynosi 3,25%. Prawo zgłaszania list kandydatów posiadają partie lub koalicje wyborcze, które zadecydowały o starcie w wyborach. Prawo partii politycznych z 1992 roku pozwala na start każdej partii, która nie neguje Państwa Izrael jako państwa żydowskiego i demokratycznego, nie podżega do rasizmu i nie wspiera lub nie bierze udziału w działalności przeciw niemu. Lista, która przekroczy próg wyborczy otrzymuje liczbę mandatów równą jej wyborczej sile. Dochodzi do tego poprzez podział ważnych głosów oddanych na listy, z wynikiem pozwalającym na przekroczenie progu, w celu ustalenia ile głosów było potrzebnych na otrzymanie jednego mandatu przez listę. Podział mandatów odbywa się metodą D'Hondta, która w Izraelu jest znana jako metoda Badera-Ofera od nazwisk posłów, którzy zaproponowali jej zastosowanie (Jochanan Bader i Awraham Ofer).

W celu zwiększenia swoich szans na zdobycie większej ilości mandatów partie mogą podpisać tzw. porozumienia o nadwyżce głosów. W myśl prawa porozumienie to zawiera się między dwoma partiami w celu podziału głosów, które nie wystarczyły na zdobycie kolejnego mandatu. Na tej zasadzie mniejsza partia przekazuje swoją nadwyżkę większej partii, z którą zawarła porozumienie. Podział głosów rozwiązuje się wtedy, dzieląc całkowitą liczbę ważnych głosów przyznanych obu listom w parach, które zawarły takie porozumienie, przez liczbę miejsc przyznanych obu listom, plus 1. Para list o najwyższym wskaźniku otrzymuje nadwyżkę miejsca.

Przed wyborami wrześniowymi porozumienie takie zawarte zostało pomiędzy następującymi listami wyborczymi:
 Likud i Jamina
 Obóz Demokratyczny i Partia Pracy
 Szas i Zjednoczony Judaizm Tory
 Nasz Dom Izrael i Niebiesko-Biali

Kampania
Już 28 kwietnia Likud wraz z partią My Wszyscy (Kulanu) Moszego Kachlona ustalili, że jeżeli dojdzie w przyszłości do nowych wyborów, to obie partie wystartują ze wspólnej listy w celu osiągnięcia lepszego wyniku wyborczego. Wstępnie ustalono, iż posłowie Kachlona otrzymają 4 miejsca na liście, a lider Kulanu otrzyma w ewentualnym przyszłym rządzie stanowisko ministerialne.

Podobne porozumienie osiągnął Beni Ganc z Ja'irem Lapidem. Obaj uznali, że wspólna lista pod nazwą Niebiesko-Biali wystartuje w przyszłych wyborach do Knesetu. Lapid oznajmił jednak, że należy przedyskutować podział miejsc na przyszłej liście, natomiast przywództwo powinno pozostać niezmienne. Według niego kandydatem na premiera powinien pozostać Ganc.

Wszystkie cztery główne arabskie partie (Hadasz, Ta'al, Ra'am i Balad) postanowiły powrócić do rozwiązania z 2015 roku i rozpoczęły negocjacje nad stworzeniem jednej Zjednoczonej Listy celem zdobycia większej liczby mandatów.

2 czerwca premier Netanjahu zdymisjonował Naftalego Bennetta ze stanowiska ministra edukacji i ministra ds. diaspory oraz Ajjelet Szaked ze stanowiska ministra sprawiedliwości. Jak podawał "The Times of Israel" premier nie chciał, aby oboje swoją pracą przyczyniali się do budowania popularności swojej partii – Nowej Prawicy, co mogłoby doprowadzić do odebrania Likudowi głosów.

26 czerwca powrót do polityki zapowiedział były premier Ehud Barak. Uznał, że Niebiesko-Biali nie posiadają dość sił, żeby zmobilizować elektorat przeciw Likudowi. Na konferencji prasowej towarzyszył mu m.in. Ja'ir Golan – były zastępca Szefa Sztabu Sił Obronnych Izraela. 1 lipca swoje poparcie i chęć przystąpienia do nowej partii wyraziła No'a Rotman – wnuczka Icchaka Rabina. Nowa partia nazwała się Demokratyczny Izrael.

9 lipca Perec i Smotricz podpisali porozumienie o wspólnym starcie Żydowskiego Domu i Unii Narodowej we wrześniowych wyborach. Wezwali jednocześnie Naftalego Bennetta i Ajjelet Szaked do rozpoczęcia rozmów w celu utworzenia wspólnej listy.

Na początku lipca doszło do odłączenia się Żydowskiej Siły od Unii Partii Prawicowych. Itamar Ben-Gewir i Micha'el Ben-Ari oskarżyli Rafiego Pereca i Becalela Smotricza o łamanie umowy koalicyjnej i marginalizowanie Żydowskiej Siły. Postanowili nawiązać współpracę z rabinem Cwim Tauem z jesziwy Har ha-Mor, który 7 lipca ogłosił powstanie swojej partii No'am, związanej ze środowiskami jesziwy i chardalim (narodowych ortodoksów).

18 lipca przewodniczący Partii Pracy – Amir Perec – ogłosił, że razem z partią Geszer Orli Lewi-Abekasis utworzy wspólną listę wyborczą. Jednocześnie poinformował, że nie dojdzie do połączenia się z nowym ugrupowaniem Ehuda Baraka ani Merecem.

25 lipca zapadła decyzja o tym, że Demokratyczny Izrael Ehuda Baraka, Merec oraz Ruch Zielonych, na którego czele stanęła dezerterka z Partii Pracy Setaw Szafir, utworzą wspólną listę wyborczą pod nazwą Obóz Demokratyczny (hebr. המחנה הדמוקרטי, Ha-Machane ha-Demokrati). Na czele listy stanął nowo wybrany przewodniczący partii Merec – Niccan Horowic, oprócz niego znalazło się na niej jeszcze 4 mężczyzn i 5 kobiet.

28 lipca doszło do porozumienia Unii Partii Prawicowych z Nową Prawicą o wspólnej liście wyborczej (Zjednoczona Prawica). Tego samego dnia Żydowska Siła poinformowała o wspólnym starcie z No'am.

31 lipca troje posłów partii My Wszyscy: Mosze Kachlon (przewodniczący), Eli Kohen oraz Tali Ploskow przeszło do Likudu. Jifat Szasza-Bitton pozostała w partii w celu utrzymania finansowania i zebrania pieniędzy na kampanię Likudu.

12 sierpnia Zjednoczona Prawica postanowiła zmienić nazwę na Jamina (hebr. יָמִינָה, dosł. Na prawo). Nazwa ma symbolizować ideologiczne położenie partii na prawo od Likudu.

25 sierpnia Sąd Najwyższy Izraela zablokował start Barucha Marzela i Ben Cijjona Gufsztajna z listy Żydowskiej Siły. Swoją decyzję uzasadnił tym, że obaj wygłaszali rasistowskie opinie wobec Arabów. Sąd zablokował petycję mającą w podobny sposób zaskarżyć lidera listy Itamara Ben-Gwira. Na drugie miejsce przesunięto Adwę Biton, a na kolejne odpowiednio: Jicchaka Waserlaufa, Dawida Kuperszmidta i Jicchaka Kroizera.

29 sierpnia Mosze Feiglin wycofał swoją partię Zehut z wyborów parlamentarnych i podpisał umowę o współpracy z Likudem.

15 września partia No'am wycofała się z kampanii i udziału w wyborach, ponieważ jej politycy uznali, że partia ma niskie szanse na dostanie się do Knesetu. Według przewodniczącego partii – Drora Arjego – 70 tys. osób popisało deklarację poparcia partii, a około 250 tys. mogłoby zagłosować na nią.

Kandydaci i listy partyjne

Jamina

Koalicja Unii Partii Prawicowych (Żydowski Dom i Unia Narodowa / Tekuma) z Nową Prawicą.

29 maja Żydowski Dom ogłosił, że nie zmieni kandydatów do wspólnej listy na wrześniowe wybory. Zaproponuje Rafiego Pereca, Idit Silman, Motiego Jogewa i Dawida Ben Cijjona. 21 lipca Żydowski Dom i Unia Narodowa zawarły porozumienie o ponownym starcie ze wspólnej listy. W sprawie składu wspólnej listy toczą się rozmowy pomiędzy liderami Żydowskiego Domu, Unii Narodowej, Żydowskiej Siły oraz Nowej Prawicy. 28 lipca osiągnięto porozumienie z Nową Prawicą, Rafi Perec poinformował, że przekaże pierwsze miejsce na liście i przewodzenie liście przewodniczącej Nowej Prawicy – Ajjelet Szaked. Do 12 sierpnia partia nazywała się Zjednoczona Prawica, później przyjęła nazwę Jamina. Z list Jaminy wystartowali:

Onesphore Manirakiza
Onesphore Manirakiza was born in the first week of the 1972 genocide. As his village was torched, the whole family fled. His Mother was still bleeding from giving birth, and she thought Onesphore was dead. She shouted to her husband that she was going to throw him in the bush, as carrying him was slowing the rest of them down and risking all of them being killed. But his Father said: "No, keep running! We'll always regret it if we threw him away not knowing 100% for sure that he was dead!" When Onesphore was told about it years later, he says he knew he had been saved for a purpose.
The family were nominally religious and as a child Onesphore remembers being aware of spirits and death which left him very fearful. He also recalls, "Unfortunately, those who knew the Good News were from the other ethnic group and could not connect easily with mine." This led to him not fully understanding the challenge and comfort that the gospel presented until a few years later.
Things changed when the church leaders decided to pray for the local families, that their spiritual eyes would be opened. They set up overnight prayer meetings and God answered their requests. Three years later there was revival!
It was at this time that the 15-year-old Onesphore was touched by the Holy Spirit and he gave his life to Jesus along with his siblings. After initial reticence and opposition, Onesphore's parents also became Christians. Onesphore remembers the deep impact of these teenage years and says, "I kept that fire for prayer and fasting".
By the age of twenty, Onesphore was convinced regarding God's calling upon his life and he preached everywhere he could. During National Service, he heard the voice of God and felt led to start a movement for revival. He started the organisation, 'Harvest for Christ', now 'Harvest Initiatives' (HI).
After initial opposition to their preaching and even facing arrest, Onesphore realised that a holistic approach would be needed to engage with hard to reach communities. As well as sharing the good news of Jesus, Harvest offered practical help. This gained the trust of the Batwa (pygmy) community. The team met with members of the Batwa ethnic group to understand what they needed in practical terms. It was clear that the number one priority was housing, followed by food and medicine. Once these needs started to be met the community asked them, "Show us how we can have your peace, love, passion and joy?" Currently, HI serves 650 families in 5 areas and there are Batwa-led churches in three of the areas where HI works.
Onesphore pioneered a summer outreach campaign which has continued to yield extraordinary fruit. Over the last 15 years (apart from 2020 because of Covid), teams averaging 700 young people have gone out across Burundi to preach and serve and pray for the sick. They have witnessed apostolic miracles, with demons being cast out, witchdoctors burning their charms and repenting, cripples being healed, and more. We reckon that 170,000 people have come to Christ over those 15 years, it has been truly remarkable.
Onesphore handed over the leadership of HI in 2015, and he has more recently co-founded Antioch Africa, which is one of GLO's partners (you can read elsewhere about the vision). He has a pivotal role in strengthening the theological rigour and practical effectiveness of a new movement of churches in the nation.
Onesphore currently represents Great Lakes Outreach in Burundi. He has authored several books and is married to Dr Innocente, they have four children.

AWOL Hill meets with Ray
By JOSH FRIEDMAN
San Luis Obispo County Supervisor Adam Hill, who caused the cancellation of an Air Pollution Control District board meeting Wednesday by saying he could not attend, was spotted appearing incognito at a San Luis Obispo coffee shop with a political friend while the meeting would have been occurring.
Around 11 a.m. Wednesday, Hill was spotted at Blackhorse coffee shop on South Broad Street with Caren Ray, an Arroyo Grande councilwoman and candidate to replace Teixeira on both the Board of Supervisors and APCD board. Hill was wearing a black t-shirt, black pants and a black cap that said "Hill" on the back.
Hill and Gibson are currently trying to regain the majority on the Board of Supervisors and the APCD board. If Governor Jerry Brown appoints Ray to replace Teixeira, she would most likely join Hill and Gibson to form a majority voting block on the Board of Supervisors.
Likewise, if Ray receives the appointment and the Grover Beach City Council votes to remove Mayor Debbie Peterson from the APCD board, Hill and Gibson will have reclaimed the APCD board majority.
Adam Hill meeting with Caren Ray while APCD meeting would have occurred
Hill chastised Peterson at the last APCD meeting for asking questions of air district staff and said at a Grover Beach council meeting earlier this month that Peterson created a huge distraction by asking her fellow council members to reevaluate the controversial APCD dust rule.
Hill and Supervisor Bruce Gibson both chose earlier in the week not to attend the APCD meeting Wednesday, causing the 12-member board to lose its seven-person quorum needed to hold a meeting. Hill and Gibson likely would have fallen in the minority on key votes if they attended Wednesday because the majority of the board members planning to attend opposed the two supervisors on major regulatory issues.
Prior to this week, three APCD board members, who usually vote with Hill and Gibson, announced that they would miss the meeting. Supervisor Paul Teixeira, another member of the board, died last month, leaving the expected total of board members at Wednesday's meeting at eight.
If either Gibson or Hill chose to attend, the meeting would have occurred. However, they both skipped, leaving only six members planning to attend the meeting scheduled for 9 a.m. Wednesday.

Gibson and Hill ploy leads to cancellation of APCD meeting
Video fame, misfortune for burglary suspect
Look how many people are willing to explain this away…these kinds of high school student board tactics are wrong. I guess we are so greased up by crooked national politicians that many of us seem to think this is ok. Well it's not. If there is a vote scheduled it should be taken. Just because you think you will lose the vote does not mean you can skip the vote and go have coffee. Hill and Gibson's political tactics mirror the tactics of Pelosi and Reid. Fish rots from the head. I guess this is what I expected from these two anyway. Not surprised. If you will cheat on something as important as your marriage vows I guess it's par for the course that you will cheat on other things.
WiserGuy
You are way off base. What would have been wrong is to allow a vote to be ramrodded through the board when key people on the board were on vacation and could not participate. Kevin Rice was hoping to make that dirty deed happen but didn't count on Hill sitting out in order to scuttle the voting. What was wrong was not canceling the meeting when it was known long beforehand that Smukler, and Marx couldn't make the meeting.
All this was was typical political gamesmanship and in this case Rice was outmaneuvered and is trying his best, with the help of his mindless pawns and tools, to turn this into a sheeeit storm and leverage it for his own selfish purposes.
1inthemiddle
A little perspective and accuracy in reporting is in order.
The photo was sometime after 11. The APCD meeting, had it occurred, is scheduled for 9:00.
The APCD was able to cancel the meeting a day in advance, not last minute.
The reasons for the two supervisors missing is unknown. Political, possibly, unanticipated emergency, maybe, family issue, maybe.
The people discussed as the "minority" are being played as the villain because it is true, they would have been the minority with the other known available members. That did not make them the minority on the board of in the opinion of the people served. Every one of the non attending members would have most likely voted on the same side. This includes Paul, who you all forget had previously voted in favor or the regulation.
So, hoping to take advantage of of the death of one man and the summer schedules of others in an attempt to change the course of things without a full board is a questionable tactic at best. A tactic that certainly does not give on the ethical high ground in this discussion.
Thank you! Absolutely! All readers "on the fence" about this issue should read your comment and realize how Kevin Rice and a few others so unfairly try to mislead people on issues like this, continually trying to make mountains of controversy and ill-will out of molehills of procedure and political strategy.
Canceling that meeting was the smart an fair thing to do. Rice is upset an raising heck because it foiled his scheme to railroad through a vote he hope to bend to the benefit of his own selfish interests, regardless of its fairness.


On November 21st, 2009, Dani and Debbie Oliveira led some members of Hale O Nā Kāula Church in volunteering for the Community Work Day program in Maui. We chose to take care of Pukalani Park , which is close to our church. We removed graffiti, cleaned bathrooms, picked up trash, mowed some of the grass and fixed the basketball hoops. It was a fun day!
It's in our hearts to bless our community, especially the children from Pukalani Elementary who use the park for PE and recess. We look forward to more opportunities like these because we love to spread Aloha! God bless Maui!

Friendfactor — SEF 2010 honoree
Friendfactor is a social-action nonprofit that aims to educate and engage the straight community to act on behalf of their gay friends and family members to end discrimination.

Photo by Kris Krug
I graduated from Harvard feeling privileged for having received an incredible education. But unlike most of my classmates, I wasn't a full citizen of this country. Just for being gay, I could be legally fired in 29 states and evicted from my residence in more than 30 states, and I couldn't marry the person of my choice in all but a handful of states. I knew that at the current pace of change, it could be years before I would have the same rights as my straight classmates. I pulled together my friends and colleagues and asked: What would it take to dramatically accelerate our course to reach full equality? The answer was that it would take more straight people standing up for their LGBT friends. That's how Friendfactor was born.
We've raised $1.5 million in just over two years. In 2010, we enabled more than 10,000 people to call their representatives in support of the successful campaign for marriage equality in New York State. Our social media campaigns have reached 14 million people, and we've won awards for the innovative advocacy technology we've created and built.
What has been most surprising?
What's most surprising is how much a start-up has to fail in order to be successful. It took us several iterations to get there. I was also surprised at the degree to which the private sector accepts or even values start-up failure compared with the nonprofit sector, which is much more risk-averse.
Global Citizen Year — SEF 2009 honoree
Global Citizen Year is disrupting the traditional path to college and creating a new generation of global leaders through a "bridge" year of service learning and leadership training in Africa, Latin America, and Asia.
FALIK: Enabling young people to experience a life-changing "bridge" year abroad.
Photo by Gary Laufman
After high school, I was hungry for experiences to test my limits and spark my sense of purpose. When the Peace Corps turned me down (it typically requires a college degree), I moved to Latin America. The experience blew open my sense of self and what I wanted to do with my life. Ever since, I've been fixated on a single insight: A defining experience before college can unlock a lifetime of potential.
After a decade of experimentation in education and global development, I enrolled at HBS to develop the skills and strategy to bring Global Citizen Year to life. Winning the 2008 Social Enterprise Conference's "Pitch for Change" competition and finding allies in several HBS professors bolstered my confidence to take the leap.
When I graduated, I had nothing but a business plan and the $3,000 pitch prize. Then came the $25,000 HBS fellowship in 2009. Today, we are a $3 million operation with 20 staff across four countries. We have 100 alumni and nearly 100 fellows in the field. We have doubled in size each year, and plan to engage 1,000 fellows in the next five years.
Is there something you're particulalry proud of?
I am most proud of our commitment to diversity: To date, over 80 percent of our fellows have received financial aid.
What's been most surprising?
As with most entrepreneurial plans, the projections in my original business plan were orders of magnitude more ambitious than what was realistic. I'm learning that sometimes we must "go slow to go fast."
Down the road, what will success look like?
One day, success as a Global Citizen Year Fellow will be as distinctive an achievement as completing Teach For America or a Fulbright. It will become a badge of leadership potential, global fluency, and unmatched resilience.
micro Home Solutions — SEF 2011 honoree
Using a combination of consulting, advocacy, design, and construction services, micro Home Solutions works with communities, financial institutions, government, and multilateral agencies to address the housing needs of India's urban poor.

In 2009, I was a second-year student at HBS, about the same time that the affordable housing buzz started in India, along with the Indian president's call for a "slum-free India."
Apprehensive about both government and real-estate developers, my husband, an architect from Italy, and I moved to Delhi and set up micro Home Solutions, aiming to do things differently. We envisioned an interdisciplinary social enterprise, with a mission to create inclusive cities where poor and low-income people had greater housing choices.
At mHS, we emphasize three principles: community, design, and affordability. We have five full-time members, two of whom are American India Foundation Clinton Fellows. Part-time, we also have an urban planner working on policy and an architect. Our annual budget of about $200,000 is part grant-funded and part fees-generated from consulting assignments.
What makes you most proud?
I'm proud that we erred toward action and moved from paper to the ground as quickly as we have. Designing and building modular shelters accommodating over 200 homeless people in Delhi and influencing the World Bank project to take into consideration housing design and safety when financing incremental home loans also makes me proud.
What has been surprising or disappointing?
We work despite the government. There is no experimentation, and we're often told we might be too early for our time.
What lies ahead for you?
For 2013, mHS will help people access technical construction assistance to self-construct their homes. Our longer-term plan is to go international, to other developing countries and to Europe, where there is a growing housing problem.
AbilityTrip — SEF 2010 honoree
Founded in 2008 by husband-and-wife team Darren and Faith Brehm, AbilityTrip is a centralized online resource for accessible travel information for disabled travelers and their companions.
THE BREHMS: On location in Lisbon, working to make the world accessible to individuals with physical challenges.

In 1993, Faith and I were seriously injured in a car accident that left me with a high-level spinal cord injury resulting in quadriplegia. We were determined not to let this injury define or limit us, and we've continued to live life to its fullest, working and traveling around the world. But early on, we found it very difficult to plan trips, as information on the accessibility of hotels, activities, and related logistics of a destination is scattered or nonexistent. We created AbilityTrip in the hope of making information on accessible travel easy to find and update for every destination around the world, and for individuals with all types of physical challenges.
We launched the venture with a founders' contribution of about $10,000 in addition to our 2010 HBS fellowship award of $25,000. Our revenues are about $2,000 annually, and the site gets approximately 100 visits daily. We have a staff of four and make an effort to hire qualified disabled individuals.
People continue to thank us for the information we provide, which confirms there is a real need out there.
Even with a good idea, it's hard to figure out how to make money.
What's the biggest takeaway?
There's never enough cash to try all the things you want to, and it is difficult to do any entrepreneurial venture on a part-time basis, as we do. Also, you have to be passionate about what you are doing to persevere through the tough times. Regardless of what happens, I've learned so much that I can take with me to the next challenge.
What lies ahead?
We just completed a mobile application. We currently offer destination information on Washington, D.C., Chicago, Boston, and London on the mobile app and hope to cover as many as 150 places.
Jana Care — SEF 2012 honoree
Jana Care is in the business of reversing "diabesity"—the twin epidemic of diabetes and obesity that is engulfing the developing world. Jana Care aims to do so by building sensors and apps that can transform a mobile phone into a personal lab and lifestyle coach.
The mobile phone as a key to diagnostics and health-care delivery.

I managed a cancer-screening project in southern India as part of my summer internship while at HBS. We used community health workers armed with mobile phones to take pictures of oral cancer patients in rural areas and send them to Bangalore for diagnosis. The results were staggering: In six months, we screened nearly 10,000 patients at less than 50 cents per patient. The experience convinced me that the future of cost-effective health-care delivery in developing countries, especially for chronic diseases, is through the mobile phone. My cofounder, Michal Depa, had similar thoughts, and we realized that it was time to translate ideas into action. Thus began Jana Care!
We are a year old and a team of six—two engineers, one MBA, one designer, one diabetes educator, and one physician. The past year was spent on R&D for our core sensor technology and establishing partnerships with some of India's top medical centers. We've raised $500,000 through private angels and grants from the government of India and the NIH in the United States.
What's been an important move that you've made?
Building the core team has been critical because diabetes is not just a medical problem, it's a lifestyle problem rooted in rapid urbanization, sedentary lives, and bad diets. It requires a holistic approach where engineers, designers, and clinicians work together.
We have a clinical trial coming up to validate our technology, and a series of market pilots lined up with early adopters.
IDinsight — SEF 2012 honoree
IDinsight aims to transform how the global social sector innovates, learns, and improves by giving its practitioners impact-measurement tools to continually improve their social programs.
IDinsight's founders—Andrew Fraker, Buddy Shah, my husband, Paul Wang (MBA 2011), and I—have complementary consulting and research backgrounds and a shared passion to serve the global poor. Together, we decided that IDinsight was the best way for us to make an impact.
This year, we will have 20 employees helping governments and nonprofits around the world. In our work, we aim to make rigorous impact-measurement approaches, like randomized controlled trials, practical and accessible to practitioners. In India, we are helping the State of Bihar improve a $200 million nutrition program. In Zambia, we are partnered with the Clinton Health Access Initiative and the Ministry of Health to test new policies to improve infant HIV testing. Similar initiatives are under way in Uganda and Cambodia. We are a fee-for-service nonprofit and have received start-up support from the Echoing Green and Rainer Arnhold fellowships.
In each engagement, we must learn the ins and outs of a specific client, sector, and geography. This involves understanding how decisions are made, the culture of the decision-makers, and the historical context of the topic. We learn to push boundaries and adapt our services.
What has been most challenging?
Managing geographic spread. We often receive inquiries about interesting projects but have to balance that with our capacity. We are also working to build a strong culture and set of values across our teams to ensure that IDinsight is a great place to work.
It's inspiring to see the sophistication in thought regarding social-sector impact—a major change in recent years.
IDinsight will apply its model in a wide variety of contexts to enable our clients to improve as many lives as possible. We intend to push the boundaries of what is possible and expected in the social sector.
Sustainable Health Enterprises — SEF 2009 honoree
Sustainable Health Enterprises serves as a platform for market-based approaches for improving the well-being of communities in the developing world, particularly by tackling problems that are overlooked or avoided because of cultural norms.

I founded SHE in 2008, and its first initiative, SHE28, was created to stem the significant costs to the health, education, productivity, and dignity of women and girls in the developing world caused by their lack of access to affordable menstrual pads. Having begun operations in 2009, SHE, with a staff of 10 and aiming to reach 3,000 girls this year, has developed a franchise model to manufacture and distribute low-cost, eco-friendly menstrual pads by sourcing local, inexpensive raw materials (e.g., banana fibers) and leveraging existing networks. Coupling these new businesses with education and advocacy for public health and hygiene will have a significant and sustainable social and economic impact on communities.
What aspect of your organization makes you most proud?
People from around the world—from Ethiopian textile engineers, to Indian public health advocates, to Wall Street executives— have helped us accelerate our growth. Also, in our main operating country, Rwanda, we have an all-African staff that's involved in all aspects of our work, including strategy and thought leadership.
What's been disappointing or remains a work in progress?
Tackling the taboos around our first initiative is still an obstacle.
Do you expect to remain in the social enterprise realm or might you move to the private sector or philanthropy?
SHE will likely stay hybrid, both nonprofit and for-profit, though we'd like to grow our for-profit arm into Southeast Asia, maybe Central America, or other African countries. We'd like to create partnerships with budding entrepreneurs globally to start a SHE28 in their communities. After that, I'd like SHE to launch other initiatives similar to SHE28 that tackle unaddressed, taboo issues that have a huge socioeconomic impact.

Re: Rich Leimsider (MBA 2003)


DeWitt Clinton Park is a 5.8-acre (23,000 m2) New York City public park in the Hell's Kitchen, New York neighborhood between West 52nd Street and 54th Street (Manhattan) and Eleventh Avenue (Manhattan) and the West Side Highway in Manhattan.
DeWitt Clinton Park which was one of the first New York City parks in Manhattan on the working waterfront of the Hudson River is named for DeWitt Clinton who had created a business boom of Hudson commerce when he opened the Erie Canal.
It is the biggest New York City park in the neighborhood and since 1959 the neighborhood has frequently been referred to as "Clinton." It is the only park on the west side of Manhattan to have lighted ball fields.
DeWitt Clinton Park was the first community garden in New York City.
DeWitt Clinton Park's original 1901 design by Samuel Parsons Jr. encompassed a bigger park that was much less developed than the current park. DeWitt Clinton Park was dramatically altered by the construction of the New York Passenger Ship Terminal on its west side. Since Navy requirements set length limits on piers, the city was able to lengthen the piers by removing land from Manhattan so that longer piers could be built that would not extend beyond the Navy limits.
In the shrinking of land, a 250-foot (76 m) wide swath on the west of DeWitt Clinton Park was removed in the 1930s for the Terminal and West Side Elevated Highway.
DeWitt Clinton Park is a children's play-ground situated on the banks of the Hudson River, bounded on the west by Twelfth Ave., on the south by 52nd Street, on the east by Eleventh Ave., and on the north by 54th Street, between nine and 10 acres (40,000 m2) in extent. This park is specially well arranged for the introduction of play-grounds. The borders on three sides are more or less steep and through the center extends a level plateau which has been made more level by grading. Walks wind up from all the four corners and at two intermediate points on one side and one on the other. The steepness of the ground makes it possible to produce a picturesque, park-like effect of trees and shrubs over a large extent of the territory. Natural rocks appear in several places throughout its surface. A broad path leads from the center of DeWitt Clinton Park on Eleventh Ave. to a gymnasium ground surrounded by trees; and in front of this, on an undulating lawn of its own, is a fine music stand. Beyond this a farm garden for children has been established and five hundred or more little ones from this neighborhood farm their little plots throughout the season. Beyond this, in turn, on a high, steep bank overlooking the Hudson, extends a long pergola or arbor beneath which are rooms used as night schools by the farm children, where they are taught domestic economy.
DeWitt Clinton Park's Current design unobstructed views of the Hudson River and New Jersey Palisades have been affected by the construction of the New York Passenger Terminal (although a sidewalk along a sycamore lined curved path on the west side side is a popular vantage point for viewing cruise ships at the terminal). The children's garden was removed in 1932. The undulating lawn, music stands, and lengthy arbor have been removed. In their place is a fenced in lighted area for three baseball fields, an asphalt basketball and handball courts and a children's playground as well as a dog park.
The fourth Internalional Quidditch Association's World Cup was held in DeWitt Clinton Park November 13–14, 2010.
In 1930 a sculpture Flanders Field Memorial featuring a doughboy by Burt Johnson, a brother-in-law of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, was dedicated in DeWitt Clinton Park. Johnson also designed a similar statue in Doughboy Park in Woodside, Queens.
The gardens were discontinued in 1932 when 250-foot (76 m) wide swath on the west side of DeWitt Clinton Park was removed to be used as part of the West Side Elevated Highway. The removed earth was transported to Central Park where it was used to fill in the Lower Reservoir for what would become DeWitt Clinton Park's Great Lawn. DeWitt Clinton Park's unobstructed views of the Hudson were further diminished with the construction in 1935 of the New York Passenger Ship Terminal.
In 1959 residents sought to soften the Hell's Kitchen and decided to name the neighborhood after the park.
In the 1980s and 1990s the area around DeWitt Clinton Park had little residential population and it developed a reputation as an outpost for illegal drug use and homeless encampments. In October 1986 three teenagers murdered a homeless man in DeWitt Clinton Park with a kitchen knife.
Various attempts to clean DeWitt Clinton Park included an instance in 1995 a German company set up a tent for seven months on the lawn for a dinner show production of Pomp Duck and Circumstance. The company promised to pay $100,000 for improvements to DeWitt Clinton Park. The dinner show was intensely opposed by residents objected to commercialization of the neighborhood lone major park (Hell's Kitchen is the jurisdiction of Community Board 4 which ranked 57th out of 59 Community Boards for open space in New York City). Following the dinner show DeWitt Clinton Park was extensively renovated with a new Erie Canal Playground designed around a granite outcropping. Other changes included new fencing and gates so that DeWitt Clinton Park could be locked at night. A dog park was added to a converted Bocce court.
In 1998, legislation passed creating the 550-acre (2.2 km2) Hudson River Park across the West Side Highway from DeWitt Clinton Park along the Hudson River between 59th Street (Manhattan) and Battery Park. The new park is a joint New York City and New York State park whereas the DeWitt Clinton Park is a city park. Currently there is no direct connection between the two parks. The New York Passenger Terminal is built along the entire west side.
In 2005, ENK International Trade Events applied to erect a tent for two weeks in September over the handball and basketball courts in exchange for some minor repairs to DeWitt Clinton Park facilities for a Fashion week event. After a subcommittee approved it, a storm of protest prompted the Community Board to veto it.

Britain and Cyprus, 1955-1959: Key Themes on the Counter-Insurgency Aspects of the Cyprus Revolt
Karyos, Andreas (2014) Britain and Cyprus, 1955-1959: Key Themes on the Counter-Insurgency Aspects of the Cyprus Revolt. In: Great Power Politics in Cyprus: Foreign Interventions and Domestic Perceptions. Cambridge Scholars Publishing, Newcastle upon Tyne, pp. 33-55. ISBN 978-1-4438-5314-9
Official URL: http://www.cambridgescholars.com/great-power-polit...
The present analysis aims to produce a penetrating enquiry of selected aspects of the British security efforts during the conflict, which proved to be crucial in the British failure to maintain their position in Cyprus and helped widen the divide between the British and the Greek-Cypriot population. In this regard, the historical background to the rebellion is reconstructed, focusing on Britain's strategic plans for Cyprus and how these plans contradicted the political desires of Greek-Cypriots. The research agenda also includes the utility of imposing Law and Order, which was at the core of London's preoccupation with a final settlement of the Cyprus Question. Special mention is made of the measures undertaken to strengthen the Police and the Army as forces of Law and Order. In the final segment, the British counter-insurgency effort is placed under critical examination.

How much horsepower does a semi-truck have?
In today's blog post, we will answer the following question: How much horsepower does a semi-truck have? We will explain the importance of horsepower and torque for semis, but also the difference between the two. We will also review the most powerful semi-truck currently on the market.
A semi-truck can have from 400 up to 600 horsepower, and an average of 1,000 to 2,000 lb-ft of torque. Semi-trucks need to have powerful engines in order to transport very heavy loads, and high horsepower and torque mean better performance overall.
A semi-truck is short for a semi-trailer truck, and it is called that way because its structure is composed of a semi-trailer for carrying the cargo and a semi-tractor for the engine power. The term semi-trailer derives from the fact that the vehicle unloads part of its weight on its axles and starts on the fifth wheel of the road tractor that pulls it; therefore, from a physical point of view, it is only half towed.
What is horsepower and why does it matter for a semi-truck?
In mathematical terms, horsepower is a measure of work that is used to calculate the force and energy necessary to move an object and, at the same time, to assess the displacement of that object in the direction that the force is being exerted.
Ultimately, when it comes to measuring top speed and acceleration, horsepower has to be taken into account, as it is the figure that explains how much an engine manages to move in a given period of time. So if you want to go and accelerate faster, you will need more horsepower.
In case you would like to know the measure of horsepower, a horsepower equals 33,000 pound-feet per minute or 4562 kg/m per minute.
What is torque and why does it matter for a semi-truck?
Torque is a torsional or rotational force produced by the crankshaft of an engine. The amount of torque produced is directly proportional to the air flowing through the motor.
The larger the motor, the more air it will pump out and therefore produce more torque. The more torque the truck you are considering buying has, the greater its ability to get the job done.
This force is what drives trucks to haul heavy loads on the move. Also, the higher this figure, the less fuel your truck will consume.
What is the difference between horsepower and torque?
Simply put, torque is the force or ability to do work, while power (horsepower or HP) is how quickly a strenuous task can be accomplished.
Think of the difference between a racing car and a semi-truck. The former produces an enormous amount of horsepower, but its torque will be used to accelerate and have more momentum since it is not doing some kind of work. When this happens, you will have the power you need for speed.
A semi-truck, on the other hand, will require power to achieve greater strength and thus transport what it needs. It may not reach high speeds, but it will carry large amounts of weight.
Let's see if you understand. An A car has 200 horsepower and a torque of 100-foot pounds, while a B car has 100 horsepower, but torque of 200 foot-pounds. Which of the two will go faster? If your answer was car A, then you were correct.
The importance of torque and horsepower for semi-trucks
Torque and power play an integral role in the automotive market. The numbers are emphasized as ways to illustrate what a cargo truck can do. In reality, these components are more important than most consumers realize. How they function in the world of driving and transportation is defined by how a vehicle's design allows the two concepts to work together.
Torque and horsepower are produced by the engine when you turn the key and press the accelerator. Ignited air and fuel in the combustion chambers cause the crankshaft, transmission, and driveshafts to rotate, initiating energy conversion.
The next time you see a vehicle advertised or are considering buying a semi-truck, think about what it means when it comes to horsepower and torque. There is a relationship between the two: they cannot exist without each other, but they represent very different aspects that allow a truck to function.
What is the most powerful semi-truck?
The most powerful semi-truck currently on the market is the Volvo FH16, as it offers unique performance and fuel economy. This semi-truck is 700 hp of pure diesel muscle.
The Volvo FH16 has rigid and tractor versions, with sleeping cabins, Globetrotter, Globetrotter XL. The maximum authorized mass of the set is 100 tons, so it can handle really wild loads. It is a truck designed for heavy and demanding transport, and for that, it needs a lot of power.
The D16G engine has three power ratings:
540 hp (2,650 Nm max.)
700 hp (3,150 Nm max).
In other words, the most powerful have the same thrust force as three Bugatti Veyrons, which would add 3003 hp. They are six cylinders in line, with a filling capacity of 16.1 litres. A single turbo feeds them and has a heat exchanger (intercooler).
This powerful engine meets Euro V emission regulations thanks to the use of SCR (selective catalytic reduction), with low emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx). 90% of the torque is available in seconds. It has a single-cylinder head, overhead rocker shaft, four valves per cylinder and electronically controlled injection, with the timing at the rear of the engine.
The horsepower of a semi-trailer indicates the operability of a vehicle. It refers to how much force is produced per second, this force is what a vehicle uses to accelerate, so more horsepower gives faster acceleration. How much horsepower you actually need depends on the weight of the semi-trailer and the speed you need.
Torque is the energy developed by a heat engine, it produces a force that is transmitted to the connecting rod and the crankshaft. The reciprocating movement of the pistons is thus transformed into a circular movement; which is called torque or torque.
Inside the engine, the combustion gases generate a pressure inside the cylinders that pushes the pistons with a certain downward force that is transmitted towards the crankshaft, making it rotate due to the generated torque.
We hope that now it is more clear what horsepower and torque are, and why they matter for the optimal operation of a semi-truck.
FAQ on How much horsepower does a semi-truck have?
How much horsepower do busses have?
School buses can have from 235 up to 450 horsepower, depending on the engine. The most common brands of Skoolie engines are Cummins, Caterpillar and International Navistar.
Which is more important: horsepower or torque?
Both horsepower and torque are important. It is obvious that the more power a car develops, the better it will manage the whole, but there are many more important variables. The strength of a vehicle, and therefore its towing capacity, is determined by its engine torque, not by power.
What is the difference between a trailer and a semi-trailer?
The difference between a trailer and a semi-trailer is in the way they are built, their carrying capacity and their purpose of use. Thus, trailers are vehicles without an engine, which are towed or pulled by a tow vehicle (rigid truck). Semi-trailers are vehicles without an engine hooked or coupled on the 5th wheel of a tractor head resting part of its weight on it.
Why is it called a semi-truck?
A semi-truck is short for a semi-trailer truck, and it is called that way because its structure is composed of a semi-trailer for carrying the cargo and a semi-tractor for the engine power.

Manganin is a trademarked name for an alloy of typically 84.2% copper, 12.1% manganese, and 3.7% nickel. It was first developed by Edward Weston in 1892, improving upon his Constantan (1887).

Manganin foil and wire is used in the manufacture of resistors, particularly ammeter shunts, because of its virtually zero temperature coefficient of resistance value and long term stability. Several Manganin resistors served as the legal standard for the ohm in the United States from 1901 to 1990.  Manganin wire is also used as an electrical conductor in cryogenic systems, minimizing heat transfer between points which need electrical connections.

Manganin is also used in gauges for studies of high-pressure shock waves (such as those generated from the detonation of explosives) because it has low strain sensitivity but high hydrostatic pressure sensitivity.

History

In 1887 Edward Weston discovered that metals can have a negative temperature coefficient of resistance, inventing what he called his "Alloy No. 2."
It was produced in Germany where it was renamed "Constantan". Five years later, after experimenting with alloys of copper, nickel, and manganese, he developed Manganin. In May 1893, Weston received a patent for the material and its use for resistors. While Manganin represented a significant advance in technology -- the material was a conductive metal with constant resistance over a wide range of working temperatures, Weston did not receive wide recognition at the time.

George Carlin is one of the most legendary stand-up comedians of all-time and probably the most consistent comedian to ever live. Carlin's stand-up philosophy and brutal honesty helped shaped an entire generation of comedians and his work has been reworked and regurgitated by even some of the best comedians of today. Carlin has a total of twenty comedy albums under his belt and sixteen televised comedy specials which is an insane amount of work for a single act to complete. Think about the next greatest stand-up comedian you could think of, Richard Pryor, Chris Rock, Chappelle… Not sure if they can hold a light to Carlin's flame.Carlin does share a physical liking to English geologist, biologist, and naturalist, Charles Darwin, the man behind the theory of evolution. Darwin believed that through the theory of natural selection the weak are eventually bred out of a species leaving the best to manifest and thrive. Darwin's theory clashed with bible thumpers but yet he's known as one of the most respected and influential people in history.
Keanu Reeves is one of those people that has such a unique aesthetic it's hard to tell what exactly his ethnic background is made up out of. Apparently, his mother is English and his father is of Chinese, Irish, Portuguese, Native Hawaiian, and English descent. Many probably wouldn't have thought that the guy from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure would become one of the world's biggest movie stars but he did and ended up starring in action films like Speed, the revolutionary Matrix trilogy, Constantine, and the John Wick series.So, how could someone with such a complex background possibly look like anyone else on this planet? We're not sure but Keanu Reeves has a doppelganger in French painter and illustrator, Louis-Maurice Boutet de Monvel who was known for his realistic portraits and children's books illustrations. If someone as peculiar looking as Keanu Reeves has a look-a-like then there's no reason in the world to doubt that you too have one as well.
Shia LaBeouf's rise to prominence is not as typical as most child actors' careers. LaBeouf got his big break on the Disney Channel television show, Even Stevens, which later led to him starring in the feature film, Holes, which later led him to a lead role in one of the biggest movie franchises in history in the Transformers series. After raking in the millions, LaBeouf appeared to head into a downward spiral whether it be extreme method acting that pissed off his cast and crew members and getting into public altercations in front of bars. These days, LaBeouf is combating prejudice and has joined the socio-political activism movement.Usually, when people think of Albert Einstein they think about an older gentleman with a thick, white mustache and unkempt hairdo but nobody ever pictures the image of a young Einstein which just so happens to look just like Shia LaBeouf. Check out the uncanny similarities.

When I'm teaching a lesson all of my musical experience comes into play to create an immersive, creative, and thoughtful experience. Both my formal musical training and history of playing in bands helps me incorporate the power of creativity and improvisation into every lesson. My degree in Music Composition has allowed me to create engaging theory/ear-training games and exercises to sharpen a student's ear and musical understanding. My experience in bands over the years ensures a focus on being able to play with others, harmony, and keeping consistent rhythm. It also helps out when learning the chords to the latest pop single! Overall, I make sure learning the instrument is fun, because after all, fun is what kept me playing music consistently all these years.
I've been a musician for 20 years, but found teaching, my latest musical passion, 6 years ago. My introduction into teaching brought it's own challenges as I was in a place where English wasn't the first language. I was volunteering in the Middle East at an arts-focused non-profit teaching kids piano, guitar, and drums. I also helped organize a music and arts focused summer camp along with the other volunteers. This experience made me realize how much I loved sharing the joy of music with others, and particularly hooking kids on music early. Since then, I've taught many amazing students of all ages in both Brooklyn, NY and Seattle, WA on a variety of instruments (guitar, bass guitar, ukulele, piano, group band classes). Wherever and whomever I'm teaching, the focus is sharing the skills needed to be a great musician in a fun, creative, and engaging way.
