San Juan Capistrano, a small city in southern California, is famous for the swallows that arrive and depart every year with predictable consistency. As Capistrano is inscribed in the genetic material of a swallow, so eternity is written deeply in the souls of all people.
San Juan Capistrano, a small city in southern California, is famous for the swallows that arrive and depart every year with predictable consistency. Around March 19, they can be expected to arrive, and around October 23 (the day that Saint John of Capistrano died in 1456), they can be expected to depart. "Like swallows returning to Capistrano" is a proverbial way to speak of that which is done by nature or by instinct.
Fortunately, we do not cycle between the northern and southern hemispheres on an annual basis! Indeed, we are distinguished from the animal kingdom by our ability to choose our destinations—where, when, and with whom we will go. The ability to choose reflects the image of our Creator God, and contributes significantly to an identity which sets apart from everything else that has life. However, there is one destination which all of the earth's peoples seek instinctively—one yearning which makes us like the swallows of Capistrano—and that is our "instinctive" yearning for eternity.
Don Richardson, a modern missionary-anthropologist, has studied human cultures in the most remote parts of the world. His book, Eternity In Their Hearts, shows how people all over the world—from the Stone Age tribes in New Guinea to the sophisticated secularists of the West—demonstrate a yearning for God. They may not know the true God, but they know he exists. Why is this so? Because God has "set eternity in the hearts of men." If there is no God, why do peoples of all cultures seek him? They seek him because he made them. As Capistrano is inscribed in the genetic material of a swallow, so eternity is written deeply in the souls of all people. A longing for God is the one part of a person's identity which cannot be "turned off." It can be denied, resisted, even cursed—but it cannot be removed.
If you long for heaven, it is because the God who made you is there. But he is also here, confirming that part of who we are is a seeker after him.

Imran Aslam: Lessons in journalism from a life and legacy transcending borders across Southasia
By Abdullah Zahid
12 January 2023: In the good old days when there was a regular exchange of theatre productions between India and Pakistan, the Pakistani satire 'Lines Out of Control' – ostensibly, a children's play – was staged in Delhi.
The cheeky title was typical of the scriptwriter Imran Aslam. The play was part of the legendary Grips Theatre repertoire from Karachi, the children's theatre inspired by a tradition from Berlin, Germany.
The Indian audience was a bit snooty, recalls actor Faiza Kazi. Some told the visitors that the play better be good, or they would leave. But everyone stayed. "They were simply mesmerised."
"It's good to see Indians in their natural habitat," quipped Imran Aslam later, making a pun on the venue, the India Habitat Center.
More than a playwright
Both the play's title and the quip were typical of a man who was much more than a playwright, as friends, colleagues and family members testified recently, at the Karachi Arts Council for a tribute to Tippu, as he was also known.
Faiza Kazi, who worked in more than 50 Grips plays scripted by Aslam, said: "All plays reflected his love for Pakistan, the conviction that it was his country – good or bad – and that he had to work for it."
Imran Aslam's passing from cancer on 2 December 2022 is a huge loss to the world of diverse, inclusive and accessible journalism. Less than a month later, many in Karachi turned out to pay homage to Imran Aslam, his life and legacy on his birthday, 4 January. The tribute was put together by friends of Imran Aslam in collaboration with Geo TV network and Karachi Arts Council.
The rich two-hour event had much to offer a young journalist like myself on how to remain steadfast and professional. Today, when I look at the industry for mentors, opportunities and encouragement, Imran Aslam's legacy shines a light.
Deeply saddened 💔to hear about Imran Aslam's passing in Karachi. Describing what he was or what he excelled in is beyond this space. Tippu as he was known, was a polymath,as well as a dear friend from decades of journalism together. Pakistan's cultural space lost a big creator.

Many present also remembered Talat Aslam, Imran Aslam's younger brother who passed away just six months earlier on 25 May 2022 and had served as editor of The News for over 15 years. He too had started out writing columns for The Star.
Imran Aslam's life and legacy transcended borders across Southasia. Born to an illustrious family in Madras (later called Chennai, India) in 1951 – not 1952 as mentioned in some obituaries – he spent his childhood in East Pakistan, going to school in Chittagong. The family moved to Lahore in 1967 and he attended Government College (now University) there.
It was at the GC open-air theatre that another student, Usmaan Peerzada, came across the young Imran reciting Shakespeare and Hamlet to the bemusement of some students from small towns like Sahiwal and Mian Channu.
Not an ordinary person
Aslam went on to London for higher studies, transferring to the London School of Economics from a smaller school.
"It's quite obvious that Tippu was not an ordinary person. A transfer from a south London college to the LSE should not be mistaken for a walkover," commented Hameed Haroon, CEO, Dawn Media Group.
At LSE too, Imran Aslam was involved in the theatrical club, Haroon recounted. "He would start every rehearsal with a half-hour of acting drills dragging the other cast members along, which Tippu was very enthused about. Nobody exercised in London in 1971, save from those who played in experimental or professional theatres."
Imran Aslam went on to contribute more than 60 plays for Pakistan's TV and theatre, scripts that are regarded as historical classics.
After LSE and before turning to journalism, Imran oversaw personal flight operations for Abu Dhabi's Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. Moving back to Pakistan in 1982, he began writing for the eveninger The Star, and was later appointed editor. Along with a small team of courageous journalists and columnists, he used wit and satire to defy the heavy media censorship imposed by General Zia ul Haq's military regime.
Gutted to hear that Imran Aslam is no more. He was my first editor at @thenews_intl. What a talented and creative man! Had a huge impact on the Pakistani media. From censorship days under Gen Zia at Daily Star to The News & finally 2 decades as the head of Geo TV. 🥀 pic.twitter.com/V7K2RfDWtL
— ShahzebJillani (@ShahzebJillani) December 2, 2022
"A person who never had done journalism has altered the overall culture of journalism," said senior journalist Mazhar Abbas who had reported under Aslam at The Star. He recalled how Imran learnt the ropes and "produced a daily which had enormous clarity on the political outlook."

It was Usmaan Peerzada who introduced Imran Aslam to Mir Shakilur Rehman when the latter was launching Jang/The News in 1990. This was the first Pakistani publication to install computers in newsrooms, a "technological revolution" recalled Ghazi Salahuddin who was the first editor of the paper. Aslam joined as news editor.
Computer phobia
Ironically, Imran himself was apprehensive of computers, testified his former personal assistant Yaqoob Haroon, who now heads Geo TV's outstation reporters' team – for which he credits Imran Aslam.
Outlining the thought process behind putting together a 'dream team', Salahuddin said, "We selected a group of people with a diversity of viewpoints who did not all come from the same dominating ideology, political party, or geographic region."
When columnist Nadeem Farooq Paracha, who had first met Imran at The Star, began working for The News, Imran assigned him the task of writing a story on how women are treated at Sindh's shrines.
As Paracha was leaving, Imran asked him to wait. "After about 30 minutes, Imran handed me a burqa and told me to put it on, saying: You will learn what really transpires with them."
When Paracha completed the piece, the editorial board objected, saying it could not be published. "Imran insisted it would be printed without changing a single full stop."
The iconic poet Zehra Nigah talked about her friendship with Imran Aslam and the pain of losing someone younger. Creative director of the Lux Style Awards Frieha Altaf shared video clips of Imran Aslam speaking at her shows.
I met Imran Aslam first in my theater days. When @thenews_intl was launched on February 11, 1991, he was my first news editor. He was a wordsmith. Imran's wit, punchlines and quality of jokes was unmatched. I have lost a friend with over 3 decades friendship. Remember his smiles. pic.twitter.com/U01WCOSBud
— Murtaza Solangi (@murtazasolangi) December 2, 2022
The cross-media turnout of those present was a testament to Aslam's stature that connected even rival media houses. Those present ranged from the top media executives to actors and artists from various cultural fields, including Sajeeruddin Khalifa of Grips Theatre, award-winning writer and artist Sehba Sarwar, journalists Fifi Haroon, Shahzeb Jillani, Muhammad Hanif, and Najia Ashar, among others
The video clips included a discussion between Aslam's friends for over 50 years, since their Government College days – Salman Shahid, Sarwat Ali, and Usmaan Peerzada – sent for the occasion by Samina Peerzada. "I never knew Imran to raise his voice," said Salman Shahid, remembering Aslam's generous love and hospitality.
Literary critic Sarwat Ali praised his wit and conversational approach. "He stood for a unique universe to me," he added. Imran could talk about anything, from modern theatre and art, to the German-British psychologist Eysenck.

Great passion
Indian journalist Rajdeep Sardesai also sent a video message. He said that he and Imran were "soul brothers" hailing from the "twin cities" of Mumbai and Karachi respectively. He remembered the "kind and enriching" interactions with Imran whenever they crossed into the other's country.
"Imran was always full, bubbling with energy, ideas and had a great passion for the world of news and entertainment and so much more. Pakistani journalism and journalism in the subcontinent has lost someone who was a trendsetter in every sense of the word," Sardesai said.
Another video clip was the trailer of the unreleased series of 25 five-minute films Sincerely Yours, M. A. Jinnah, produced by advertising guru Anwar Rammal, based on Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah's letters. Imran played the lead role, directed by his youngest brother Nasser Aslam.
Imran Aslam also wrote the script for blockbuster Parey Hut Love (ARY films, 2019), a clip from which featuring his cameo appearance was screened at the end of the event. The film garnered widespread local and international acclaim and bagged the "Best film on wholesome entertainment" award at the 2020 South Asia Forum for Art and Creative Heritage (SAFACH).
I came away with a sense of Aslam's strong work ethic and soft skills – he possessed a herculean firmness and the politeness of Hermes. One may be super talented, a born genius or a prodigy, but it takes a team-player attitude, good communication skills, and solution-oriented approach to inspire people – and he did that through mentorship, love and understanding, said Ghazi Salahuddin.
From what I learnt, Aslam didn't waste his energy impressing others. He competed with himself, and his past self. In other words, when you are in competition with others, you exude bad energy. When you focus on yourself and defeat your own weakness, you develop yourself.
During Imran's tenure as President of Geo TV, from the network's launch in 2002 until his demise, he oversaw many projects including the groundbreaking Aman Ki Asha (hope for peace), which promoted good relations and cross-cultural exchanges between Pakistan and India.
Despite Geo TV being bogged down in legal battles and financial crises for years, Imran stayed steadfast and confronted the censorship head on.
Speakers mentioned that Imran had a talent for connecting to people and resolving their problems through motivational dialogues that left the other person better off for having met him.
People don't overnight become prosperous, as I learned from a brief, moving biography of Imran's life that the Geo TV team produced for the occasion. The voyage is replete with high and lows; in order to effectively navigate it, one must be consistent, work hard, be willing to make sacrifices, and be flexible enough to constantly evolve and adapt.
Another thing I picked up from Imran Aslam's personality is that if you stay true to who you are and work to always be your best self, you will find your tribe – those who share your core values and are on the same wavelength as you.

Dr Hilary Jones says he won't see his children yet because he's 'trying to be sensible'
"I haven't been able to see my kids but I'm trying to be sensible"
Good Morning Britain's Dr Hilary Jones has admitted that he still isn't allowing himself to see his children, because he's 'trying to be sensible'.
The health expert was speaking to Kate Garraway and Ben Shephard about the rise in cases across the UK.

He warned that the UK was following the same pattern as France in terms of coronavirus cases, which he said was 'concerning'.
"Social distancing is the thing that keeps us safe," he said.
"We've seen two shining examples of people who don't think the rules apply to them.
"We're following the curve of France, which is concerning."
He added: "I haven't been able to see my kids but I'm trying to be sensible."
Dr Hilary then suggested that the UK should be 'stricter' with its rules, saying: "If you look at what's happened in Thailand, South Korea, Finland, where they've been stricter, they've got through it quicker.
"Their GDP has suffered, their economy has survived much better than that of the US and the UK.

"70 years ago we went through a war that was six years long, and people are getting fed up after a few months.
"We just have to be a little more disciplined and a little more patient."

Infant Sleep Consultants was set up to provide expert advice for parents struggling on how to put a baby to sleep to get their little ones to sleep. the program is run by three highly experienced and qualified professionals, each with over twenty years' experience of working with families on a one-to-one basis. we do not have a "one solution fits all" approach as we know every child is different, but work with the parents to create a tailor-made plan that they can manage and one which takes into account the needs of the child and expectations of each family. we have learnt that the key to success is consistency, so know that if it feels manageable, they are going to be able to stick at it! during the course of our careers, we found that although there was much guidance offering parents support through pregnancy, birth and those first tentative weeks of finding your feet, as the babies/children got older, the gentle support that parents had become reliant on had started to evaporate and they were exhausted from many weeks and sometimes months of broken sleep.
Q: can you explain why some babies are awake for hours in the middle of the night?
A: we all naturally wake several times a night. if a baby/child has become dependent on a sleep prop to resettle, when they come into their lighter sleep, they will need the same prop to get back to sleep.
Q: how to get baby to sleep?
A: the recipe to success is to make sure your baby is having the right amount of feeds during the day so you can be confident that they aren't waking from hunger. try to ensure they don't get overtired and are napping well during the day. introduce a calm and consistent bedtime routine. the best way to avoid a sleep problem is to encourage positive sleep associations from the beginning.
Q: what's the best bedtime routine for a new-born vs a toddler?
A: babies and children thrive on familiar routines and the reason a bedtime routine is often successful is they are able to anticipate what will happen next. as the end of the day approaches, keep everything calm and reduce the noise and light in the house (where possible!) give them a bath as it relaxes them and helps to release their sleepy hormone. take them to their room, read them a bedtime story in your arms, feed them, give them a kiss and a cuddle and say goodnight.
Q: does swaddling help baby sleep?
A: swaddling a baby can help them feel secure and mean their startle reflex doesn't disturb them. the guidelines recommend keeping any swaddles loose around their hips, the swaddle doesn't go above their shoulders and all materials are breathable. the aden and anais swaddle is definitely one we would recommend!
Q: how do you support parents whose babies don't sleep through the night?
A: we come to the comfort of our client's home where we can pick apart what has gone wrong and most importantly, how to resolve it. we have heard many stories and try to dispel some of the judgement that is often part of parenthood. we are there to support them through any confidence dips as that is often the reason that it all falls apart in the middle of the night.
what is the point of hiring a sleep consultant? what can you do that parents cannot do?
A: although there are hundreds of websites, many containing conflicting advice, all aimed at assisting tired parents, we have found they become overloaded with information and overwhelmed by what to do next. the key factor that makes us different to many of our competitors is that we are all parents! we have eight children between us so really have been there, done it! we have all had sleepless nights, felt frazzled and at times, wondered if we would ever sleep again!

Friends reunited at Camp Nou for FC Barcelona v Inter Milan
The game between Barça and Inter will see old acquaintances revived in the Champions League
fcbarcelona.com
Barça v Internazionale is a Champions League fixture that will bring together some old friends at Camp Nou. Antoine Griezmann and his former Atlético Madrid team mate Diego Godin, now plying his trade in Serie A, are just one example of the players who will have the chance to catch up with familiar faces on Wednesday evening.
Alexis and Piqué, Busquets, Messi, Sergi Roberto and Jordi Alba
The Chilean striker was part of the Barça squad for three seasons between 2011 and 2014 in which time he claimed six trophies; one league title, a Copa del Rey, a European Super Cup, a FIFA World Club Cup and two Spanish Super Cups. Alexis Sánchez will come up against former team mates Piqué, Busquets, Messi, Jordi Alba and Sergi Roberto from his time as a blaugrana.
Griezmann and Godín
These two former Atlético Madrid stars are good friends and will come face to face for the first time on Wednesday since both decided to leave 'los colchoneros' in the summer. After fives seasons together in the capital, the two players know each other's game perfectly so Wednesday's encounter will be riveting as the striker and centre back will be in direct opposition out on the field at Camp Nou.
Vidal and Asamoah
Two busy, physical players in midfield who played together at Juventus between 2012 and 2015, Vidal and Asamoah were fixtures in the 'Vecchia Signora' of Antonio Conte.
Conte and Vidal
Arturo Vidal was a key member of Antonio Conte's Juventus side between 2012 and 2014, winning successive Serie A titles. Now Conte is in charge at Inter Milan and he is only too aware of the threat posed by the Chilean midfielder.
Aside from former club team mates, several international team mates will come face to face on Wednesday. Barça's Uruguayan striker Luis Suárez faces his fellow 'charrua' internationals Godín and Vecino. Argentines Messi and Lautaro come face to face as do Croatians Rakitic and Brozovic and Dutchmen De Jong and Stefan de Vrij.

Since his arrival to New York City over a decade ago in June of 2001, Pete Zimmer has established himself amongst the forefront as one of the top-call young drummers in New York's jazz scene. Born and raised in Waukesha, Wisconsin, Zimmer has made his mark locally and internationally as a versatile and articulate drummer, bandleader, sideman, composer, educator, and record label entrepreneur.
Before moving to New York, Zimmer studied both at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, Illinois and also at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, Massachusetts, where he earned his bachelors degree. At the Conservatory he had the good fortune to have apprenticeships with master musicians such as Danilo Perez, Cecil McBee, George Garzone, Bob Moses, Jerry Bergonzi, and Bob Brookmeyer.
Since 2001, Zimmer has performed and recorded with both master jazz legends, as well as up-and-coming, rising jazz stars including: George Garzone, Joel Frahm, Jeremy Pelt, Peter Bernstein, Michael Rodriguez, Jerry Weldon, Dennis Irwin, David Wong, Rick Germanson, Anthony Wonsey, Randy Napoleon, Michael Karn, Julius Tolentino, Gene Perla, Tom Kennedy, Wayne Escoffery, Jaleel Shaw, Dan Nimmer, and many others.
In May of 2004, Pete Zimmer launched his record label, Tippin' Records, and on September 7th, 2004, released his first album as a leader, "Common Man," which was declared "an impressive debut" by the Philadelphia Daily News. Since that time, Zimmer has produced and released three additional CDs as a bandleader, "Burnin' Live at the Jazz Standard" (2006), "Judgment" (2006), and "Chillin' Live @ Jazz Factory" (2008). These CDs, two studio and two live recordings, feature many of his compositions that have brought him a great deal of critical acclaim across the globe. His fifth album as a leader, "Prime of Life," is scheduled to be released in April of 2012.
During 2005-2011 Zimmer led his band on numerous tours throughout the United States as well as the United Kingdom performing at many of the top jazz venues as well as presenting clinics at many collegiate jazz study programs. Some of the major jazz venues he's performed at during this time include: The Blue Note, Iridium, Jazz Standard, The Kitano, Ronnie Scotts, Dazzle Jazz Club, The Jazz Factory, Night Town, Blues Alley, Baker's Keyboard Lounge, Zanzibar Blue, The Blue Wisp, and The Blue Room, among others.
As a Yamaha clinician, Zimmer has been dedicated to educating and developing the talents of students. He presents clinics and workshops at colleges, universities, and conservatoires that have included: Birmingham Conservatoire, Indiana University, Leeds College of Music, Loyola University (New Orleans), Ohio State University, Middlesex University, Northern Illinois University, Royal Academy of Music, Trinity College of Music, University of Colorado at Boulder, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and Wisconsin Conservatory of Music.
All Music Guide has stated, "Pete Zimmer's fourth recording as a bandleader and composer might stake his claim as a modern day version of Art Blakey."

The Queensland Indigenous (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander) Procurement Policy (QIPP) provides a whole-of-government framework to increase procurement with Indigenous businesses to be three per cent of the value of government procurement contracts by 2022. Under the QIPP an Indigenous business is at least fifty per cent owned by Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Under the QIPP we will:
increase the capacity and capability of Indigenous businesses to successfully tender for Queensland Government contracts
grow and develop a diverse and sustainable Indigenous business sector in Queensland by increasing the capacity and capability of Indigenous businesses to supply to the Queensland Government but also to supply to the private sector through supply chains and increased private sector demand
improve employment outcomes and opportunities for Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples to participate in the Queensland economy.
About the QIPP
The Queensland Government is committed to job creation and the development of a diverse economy. While this commitment extends to all Queenslanders, Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples do not participate equally in Queensland's economy or labour market.
An action under Moving Ahead, a whole-of-government strategy to drive improvements in economic participation outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Queenslanders, is to develop a Queensland Indigenous (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander) Procurement Policy that targets an increase in procurement with Indigenous businesses by 2022.
Indigenous businesses are significantly more likely to employ Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples, relative to non-Indigenous businesses. Growing Indigenous businesses is a viable pathway to create employment and increase the economic participation of Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Indigenous Procurement Guide has been produced to assist procurement officers in implementing the QIPP.

Ion-separation with charged mesoporous inorganic membranes
Interview: 27 January 2003
I have been working on fluid (mainly salt solutions) transport through inorganic membranes. In our research group, inorganic materials science, people know a lot about making membranes that function very well, and after that they perform measurements on them. But how these membranes work is something a little more difficult. I worked in a bit different way.
What has your research been about?
I have been working on fluid (mainly salt solutions) transport through inorganic membranes. In our research group, inorganic materials science, people know a lot about making membranes that function very well, and after that they perform measurements on them. But how these membranes work is something a little more difficult. I worked in a bit different way. I used membranes that are being made in our group on a regular basis in and looked at how electrolyte solutions were transported through them. To do this, I needed to know how the membranes worked. Because of that, an important part of my assignment was to design a model that would describe the system.
Our membranes consist of two layers. The bottom layer, the support, provides mechanical strength. The support is formed by vacuum filtration of a particle suspension and subsequent calcination (baking) in an oven, producing a ceramic oxide. The second layer forms the contact layer with the solution that needs to be separated.
A point of interest in the research was the size of the pores in the material. It is difficult to measure this parameter directly but must be between 2 and 4 nanometers. In contrast to conventional membrane separation, the size of the pores of our ceramic membranes does not really play an important role in the separation of electrolyte solutions. The pores have a diameter of about 4 nanometers, while the size of the particles is in the order of 4 Ängstrøm, that is about 10 times smaller. The surface charge is the property of the membrane that is mainly responsible for the separation of the salt ions and the solvent. It also complicates the understanding of the system, since the interaction of the ions and the surface is different for differently charged ions and also changes as a function of electrolyte concentration and pH. I designed a predictive transport model for fluids through inorganic membranes, in which I inserted several important material and solution-material properties, and it turned out that values predicted with the model agreed well with experiments. I would have like to do some more experiments to put my model to the test, but maybe someone else can work on that.
This actually is the first predictive model for systems like these that exists. Earlier people used data from separation experiments, fitted them and were content with the result. With the development of this model I think I have contributed a lot to the understanding of inorganic membranes.
Have you had a collaboration of some kind with other research groups?
In this scientific area there seems to be quite some rivalry. There are some researchers who are thought very highly of, and the rest is mainly following their approach. One time when I was giving a talk at a conference someone asked me the following question: "Why are you doing this research, it has already been shown that your method does not work". We have, however, proven that our method really works and the people who previously followed the same approach overlooked crucial things. To me this is a clear indication of how much people are thinking in standard ways, which leads to a lot of work being done twice, slowing down progress. During my Ph.D. I have really noted how much it pays off to work together with other people, especially interdisciplinary. I have always tried to get in contact with a lot of people. For example I visited a professor in this area in Wageningen a couple of times who is an expert on the charging of ceramic materials. It has been really helpful to be able to use his knowledge.
Did you have the opportunity to visit a lot of nice places for your work?
Not really. I only visited some conferences, in Toulouse, France for example, and in Leiden, in the Netherlands. I do not think that visiting conferences is the most successful way of acquiring knowledge or to get acquainted with someone. In Toulouse there were some 1000 visitors for the conference and I must say that in general the scientific level of the talks was not too high. In Leiden it was far better. We were about 40 people there so we really got to know one another.
What techniques in your research area do you think will boost new developments?
The most important thing will be to gain more control on the growing of your membrane. The most important technique that can provide that is probably templating. It would also be nice if in general we could perform more precise measurements on the surface properties (e.g., pore size, charging characteristics) of a membrane. It would allow us to characterise it better and localize constraints.
What are your plans for the nearby future?
I still remain interested in research and also in this particular area so I plan to stay in contact with it, but only sideways. First I am going to the University of South Australia, in Adelaide as a post-doc. Only for half a year, though. There I want to take a look at the charge properties of composite materials. This work bears a strong relation to my research on membranes.
On the other side I really enjoy to do many different things. I always had a broad range of interests, so after coming back from Australia I would like to work in a company. I am not sure whether I will like it or not, but I will always have the possibility of going back to do research in a university. I am already in the run for a job with Shell. They are quite enthusiastic about me but they do not have any vacancies at the moment. I will have to wait for at least half a year. That is why I am going to Australia in the mean time. Working within a company is much more applied than at a university, a client has a problem and some investigations have to be done to solve it. They will only get involved in projects if they expect results in the near future. The diversity of work at a company is exactly what I like.


Symbolically, Pearls provides a vehicle for wisdom as well as providing a mirror in which to see ourselves, giving us insight into how we appear to others.
In a more literal sense, the "Mother" in the poem is on a mission to 'find herself' through some pearls that she thinks are hidden in the rocks. Her son, who is watching from down below, is trying desperately to communicate, to gain her attention, her love. In fact, he is trying to tell her that she already has pearls, if only she could see them.
The first line of the poem was inspired by a poetry-film on Moving Poems site, so it seemed appropriate to explore my text further through film. I sent the poem to Voiceover Artist and Broadcaster David Wartnaby. A few weeks later, I found exactly the right footage, music and sound and the poetry-film fell into place.

I know this is about samygo software, but maybe someone can give me some hint on my hw problem.
First TV started to forget the channel list. Next day it also fogot how to access the wifi and now it does no longer react on the RC. Instead it reboots every 20 seconds. The picture of the last channel is shown.
Next thing to do would be to replace the main board and/or power board. Is there anything else I can try before I'm going to buy these?
Without debug log it is very hard to say what`s wrong. I guess problem is related to emmc, than other hardware. At least exlink output would suggest more what`s going on. Have you tried to enable debug output to exlink port? I mean if you didn`t set to debug, you get nothing on exlink.
In any case - whatever is the reason on mainboard, here is no way to repair it. What definitely would help - mainboard replacement.

https://mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2018/03/mike-pyle-ufc-222-retirement-fight-two-decades-in-mma
On eve of final fight, Mike Pyle looks back on nearly two decades of testing himself in MMA
[jwplayer UZZIkJxH-FLu19iir]
Back in November 1999, a skinny kid with no pro fights on his record jumped in the ring with a guy by the name of Quinton Jackson hoping to find out what he was made of.
For starters, he was made of about 30 pounds less than the fighter they called "Rampage," a fact this skinny kid was reminded of when he got powerbombed and thrown over the top rope like a high-flying professional wrestler.
Yep, Mike Pyle told himself once that night was over, this MMA fighting stuff sure was fun. Now, nearly two full decades later, he's had enough. At 42, Pyle will retire from the sport following his bout against Zak Ottow at UFC 222 on Saturday night in Las Vegas.
Win, lose, or draw, when he wakes up on Sunday morning, he'll no longer be Mike Pyle the pro fighter – and that's a strange idea to have to get used to all of a sudden.
"I've been identified as a fighter for most of my adult life," Pyle (27-13-1 MMA, 10-8 UFC) told MMAjunkie ahead of his bout with welterweight Zak Ottow (15-5 MMA, 2-2 UFC), which closes out UFC 222's UFC Fight Pass prelims. "That's who Mike Pyle is, what I'm all about. My every day grind was all about getting to that next fight, learning that next technique, working to advance. How's it going to feel without that? I don't know. But I'll be honest: I'm ready to retire. I really am. I could stay in this game, but it's just not worth it for me anymore."
Part of that is a commentary on the state of fighter pay. Pyle made a disclosed payout of $55,000 for a knockout loss to Alex Garcia on the prelims of UFC 207. It was a decent chunk of change, but as Pyle put it, "the juice is no longer worth the squeeze" when you're a middle-aged undercard fighter putting your health on the line against dangerous, hungry younger men.
Mike Pyle started career by fighting 'Rampage' Jackson for $100 and ended up 'like a shoe in a dryer'
"It's risky business," Pyle said. "And for me, the paychecks just aren't big enough for me to continue doing that."
There's also the fact that, unlike some of his peers, Pyle has attractive career options outside of fighting. He's worked occasionally as an actor in films like "Men in Black 3" and "Universal Soldier: Regeneration," and lately his career as a stuntman has really picked up. He may not have fought at all in the UFC in 2017, but he was credited with stunt work in two different TV and film projects.
Plus, especially at his age, that world can give him a future that MMA almost certainly won't.
"It's organized," Pyle said. "There are things at the back end for me. There's retirement. There's all that. It has all those things that fighting didn't have to offer for me, so I'm taking the smarter route."
It's a long way from where he started, training in a makeshift gym in a shed behind his mother's house in Dresden, Tenn. Back then, Pyle said, all he wanted was to be a martial artist. When he felt like he was becoming that, what he wanted was a way to test his skills on other trained humans.
He found that test in MMA, even if it meant getting thrown around by monsters like "Rampage" in the New Daisy Theatre down on Beale Street. His career took him all over the world, from Russia to Japan, from London to Rio de Janeiro, and in fight promotions from the UFC to Strikeforce to the IFL to EliteXC.
Zak Ottow surprised Mike Pyle fighting at UFC 222, honored to serve as final foe
"Just about any organization with any prestige in the world, I fought in it," Pyle said. "I won and lost in them all. I fought whoever they asked me to fight. I gave it my all every time."
Now that it's winding down, Pyle said, he hopes people will remember him that way, as a guy who showed up and fought hard night after night. His fighting career may be ending, but his life as a martial artist never will, even if it won't be his job anymore.
And the journey he set out on all those years ago? He's got no complaints about where it took him, no matter how this one last fight turns out.
"I wouldn't change it for the world," Pyle said. "I was the skinny kid getting slammed by 'Rampage' because I believed that this sport – and at the time, it wasn't even considered a sport – it was a martial art to me.
"And martial arts is a different journey for everyone. Mine was to compete. I wanted to use those skills and those hours on the makeshift mat in my shed out back. It became a job and a paycheck, and through it all I made many friends, developed zero enemies, and now I have no regrets at all about the path I chose. I became what I was meant to be."

5G coverage, prediction, and trial measurements
Tristan Curry, Robert Abbas
When planning a 5G network in the sub-6GHz bands, similar cell planning techniques to LTE can be applied. Looking at the Australian environment, the n78 band (3.3-3.8GHz TDD) is approximately 1GHz higher than the 2.6GHz band used in existing LTE networks. As a result, the coverage footprint can be similar, and therefore co-locating 5G NR (New Radio) on existing LTE base stations is a common strategy for initial network rollout. Any difference in coverage can be compensated by beamforming gain, less downtilting, or increasing the gNodeB's transmit power. This paper presents an initial link budget for data services, provides a coverage prediction, and measurements for a 5G NR NSA (Non Stand Alone) trial radiating at 3.5GHz with 60 MHz bandwidth. The coverage prediction is generated using RF planning tool Atoll, which is then compared to coverage measurements from the trial. These findings can be used to help plan a future 5G network in the Sydney metro area or similar environment.

Q: Python: add item in multidimensional list hi I am not very knowledgeable in python. I want to insert the numbers into the multidimensional array (c), with a maximum difference of 0.21% between numbers. However, I want to put the other related numbers of the numbers that are .21 different from each other into the same array.
nums = sorted([47255, 47343, 47865, 47904, 48000, 48001], reverse=True)

i = 0
b = 1

c = []

while i < len(nums):
    while b < len(nums) - i:
        a = ((nums[i] - nums[i+b]) / nums[i+b]) * 100
        if a < 0.21:
            if (nums[i] in x for x in c):
                c.append([])
                c[i].append(str(nums[i]))
                c[i].append(str(nums[i + b]))
            else:
                c.append(str(nums[i]))
                c.append(str(nums[i + b]))
                c.append([])
        b = b + 1
    b = 1
    i = i + 1
print(c)

result:
[['48001', '48000', '48001', '47904'], ['48000', '47904'], ['47904', '47865'], [], ['47343', '47255']]

what i want
[['48001', '48000', '47904', '47865'], ['47343', '47255']]

(48001 48000 max difference %0.21 but more difference %0.21 48001 between 47865) but 47865 .21 47904 .21 48000 and this too max .21 48001 All of these numbers must be in index 1 of the c array.
47343 not max difference .21 47865 then this should also be in the second index.
47343 max %0.21 difference 47255
c = [['48001', '48000', '47904', '47865'], ['47343', '47255']]

img please look
I'm sorry for my bad english.

A: Hoping that I got the question right, I have a solution. The algorithm is simple - when adding a new element in the matrix:

*

*Test every element of every existing array if it meets the (0.21%) condition with the new number

*

*If yes, add the new number to that array

*If the number was not added to any array (no existing numbers met the condition), create a new array only containing the new number

code00.py
#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys

def add_to_array(n, arr2d, ratio=0.0021):
    for arr in arr2d:
        for elem in arr:
            if abs(n - elem) / max(n, elem) <= ratio:
                arr.append(n)
                return
    arr2d.append([n])

def main(*argv):
    nums = sorted([47255, 47343, 47865, 47904, 48000, 48001], reverse=True)
    c = []
    for n in nums:
        add_to_array(n, c)
    print("The matrix:", c)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    print("Python {0:s} {1:d}bit on {2:s}\n".format(" ".join(elem.strip() for elem in sys.version.split("\n")), 64 if sys.maxsize > 0x100000000 else 32, sys.platform))
    rc = main(*sys.argv[1:])
    print("\nDone.")
    sys.exit(rc)

Output:

Coatings are designed with a variety of components, and different component combinations create unique coatings that enhance specific consumer products and industrial solutions. The main films that simplify general routines are non-stick coatings, weatherproof coatings, and PVD options.
In most residential and commercial kitchens, chefs and cooks have to manage cooking temperatures strategically in order to avoiding burning sticky candy. Caramel is one of the toughest products to prepare and cook, as the sugar can easily destroy a pan once the temperature of the boiling liquid burns. Non-stick coatings help cooks and chefs save money during complicated cooking situations because very burnt caramel won't stick to the treated material if a candy product isn't thoroughly managed. If a batch of caramel burns quickly, the solid layer of sugar will slide out of the pan with ease, and the non-stick surface can be cleaned by wiping the material with a damp rag.
Weatherproof coatings benefit builders because they protect building materials when harsh weather strikes. For example, after a protective UV coating is applied onto a bundle of lumber, the wood won't fade or warp, as the UV shield will reflect the effects of the intense solar rays. Coatings for rainy weather are also available; these products are very beneficial since they prevent warping and wood rot.
Many industrial businesses use PVD technologies to make films for various applications. This coating method is unique because it involves the use of vapor and vacuum equipment. When PVD hardware is operated, various phases occur throughout the coating process, and each step creates a layer that provides efficient protection.

Keeping bad habits of past is just a step toward your fail. That is the main reason why you should implement steps that will improve your rankings and give you what your business longs for.
By creating powerful search engine marketing, you will be able to create awareness and to openly dominate competitors by using the key that opens everything: creativity.
First, you have to conduct thorough keyword research. Without doing that, you will fail without any suspicion. This particular step will help you create and laythe groundwork for all further SEO steps. That is why you shouldn't make a mistake right from the start.
Let us understand this is an example. Imagine having a simple word such as "dog food." Okay, most people would use this particular phrase as the search query for seeking information on different types of dog food or other information about it.
However, if you modify this particular phrase and make it like "buy raw dog food," you will create a more specific keyword that will provide you specific target audience you'll need. The best way to choose keyword phrase is to keep it specific and close to your company.
It is also important to give it casual and conversational vibe, and to think whether you would use that phrase to search things online. Another tip that we recommend you is to use long-tail keywords.
It is important to share content casually and to include numerous keywords that will capture a wide array of traffic. That way you will expand the target audience without getting too far.
If you want to obtain perfect rank, you have to follow some rules and regulations. For optimization, you should make unique content. Numerous tools will help you check whether there is existing text anywhere on the web, and when you find the match, the idea is to erase it, because it will affect your search rankings.
If you have in mind that Google priority is to provide useful content to visitors, having duplicate content is counter-effective because it means that you are not following rules. When you fall at the rankings, it is much more difficult to get back up.

I have been too busy practising Search engine optimisation to create about it. Search engine marketing is not dead, it has evolved. I encourage you to commit time learning what Search engine optimisation is and discovering out how it effects net traffic as effectively as ratings on a search engines. With quality Seo and verified white-hat approach, we are proud to serve your enterprise. One thing that many modest and big websites need to have to contemplate is whether authorities of Search engine optimisation need to have to be employed to make sure that they win the Search engine marketing ranking battle.
I've observed situations exactly where Google entirely removed the website because the search engine couldn't figure out what was going on. I've also observed circumstances where the crawler just skipped over the pages and only indexed the residence page. Web site Rank, powered by rankingCoach, generates a customised Search engine marketing method for your site. A web site that does not link out to ANY other internet site could be interpreted accurately to be at least, self-serving. Content asset links are constructed to keep your site ahead of your competitors' and makes it possible for your web site to rank for hugely competitive keywords.
Lastly a Search engine marketing freelancer is much more committed to your web site compared to a Seo business due to much less work stress. That getting said – modest firms can nonetheless succeed if they concentrate on a approach primarily based on depth, rather than breadth relating to how content material is structured web page to web page on a site. Every single section of this guide is crucial to understanding the most efficient practices of search engine optimization. Could not agree much more, they are like the Seo Fox News Channel – it's easier to discover water in the desert, than genuine info in them.
Although I would argue that there are a lot more critical Search engine marketing elements to focus on prior to meta search phrases. No matter no matter whether you want to operate on your current Yahoo advertising or want to start a new 1 in order to attain billions of individuals, Ranking By Search engine optimisation India would be your one particular-cease destination. This information is then analyzed by our Search engine optimization specialists to pick out and assess patterns within your internet site database. In my opinion, this is why most website owners are confused and they either give up with Seo or just do not get the anticipated final results.

Der Puku (Kobus vardonii) ist eine afrikanische Antilope aus der Gattung der Wasserböcke. Mit der wissenschaftlichen Benennung ehrte der Afrika-Forscher David Livingstone seinen Freund, den Großwildjäger Frank Vardon (1813–1860).

Beschreibung
Der Puku erreicht eine Schulterhöhe von bis zu 81 Zentimeter und erreicht ein Gewicht von 73 Kilogramm.

Das Haarkleid ist vorwiegend goldgelb, etwas heller an den Flanken und an der Unterseite grauweiß. Die Kehle ist weiß. Die Läufe sind einheitlich braun und der Wedel ist goldgelb. Männliche Pukus besitzen verhältnismäßig kurze, starke, leierförmige Hörner, die deutliche Ringe tragen. Sie werden bis zu 52 Zentimeter lang. Die Schulterhöhe beträgt etwa 80 Zentimeter. Ihre Verwandtschaft mit dem Wasserbock lässt sich besonders gut am Kopf erkennen.

Verbreitung und Habitat
Die Art ist in Zentralafrika und dem Südlichen Afrika verbreitet, wo sie vor allem in der Demokratischen Republik Kongo, Sambia, Botswana (ausschließlich im Chobe-Nationalpark), Namibia und Angola vorkommt. Das Habitat sind Schwemmebenen und Sümpfe.

Die IUCN stuft die Art als potentiell gefährdet (near threatened) ein.

Verhalten und Nahrung
Die Größe der Weibchen-Herden schwankt zwischen 5 und 30 Tieren. Männchen sind territoriale Einzelgänger. Pukus können sich wie galoppierende Pferde mit einer kurzen Schwebephase fortbewegen. Meist sind sie sehr zutraulich. Sie bevorzugen Gras als Nahrung.

Systematik
Obwohl der Puku einst als südliche Variante des Kob angesehen wurde, unterscheidet er sich von diesem vor allem in der Größe und in seinem Sozialverhalten, so dass er heute meistens als eigene Art eingestuft wird.

There are many ways to enjoy being on a water with your stand up paddle board. Do you know them all?
Occasional practice individually or paddling with a group of friends or family, while being next to different types of water. You can practice stand up paddle on flat water (lakes, rivers) or enclosed waters like sea, harbors, marinas, lagoons. This is a great way of spending time together on water with additional benefit – fitness workout. Children all age can join their parents in paddling experience. Boards also provide a lot of joy to children when taken to the beach for their entertainment.
Nature lovers will recognize stand up paddle boarding as a great way to experience water environment. Tours in natural environment are great opportunity to watch wild nature. With no impact to environment you can practice long distance paddling even in national parks admiring the surroundings. Touring on stand up paddle is a great way to also explore the coastline.
Seeking some adrenaline and opportunity to compete with others? Join stand up paddle racing to experience speed and sports atmosphere. Professional stand up paddle races are organized in various water environment: starting from mountain rivers finishing with open sea. Join the tribe of adrenaline junkies.
When feeling like a surfer starting his day by catching the waves, stand up paddle board can be used also for SUP surfing. Riding waves with a paddle gives a great opportunity to catch them all, while other surfers are waiting for the perfect one. Paddle is very helpful in maneuvering the board and getting some speed to make any wave yours.
Yoga practice on stand up paddle boards is an amazing experience. It provides both contact with nature and your own body. Doing Asana on a floating board on water is challenging but brings more self-consciousness and great sense of balance.
How to choose a board?
When you don't want to rent it anymore, when you want to have your own board always available for your use, you should ask yourself an even more relevant question: "how do I want to use my board?" It is then worth stressing the advantages of inflatable boards. They are much more affordable than hard ones and they do not take a lot of storage space as deflated they fit into standard backpack and can be easily stored when not used. Also with a good value for money you do not have to stop yourself after buying one model, either getting another one for you for a different use or for your relative to go and share your experience.
Here come our recommendations for board types accommodating the preference of usage.
For recreational stand up paddle practice we advise to get an all-around board (Bass Breeze model in our shop). This type of board is stable enough for beginners, wide to keep the balance during first stand up paddle experience. Later this board has still a lot to offer as a first board to try to catch the waves or have fun on enclosed water when keeping balance is more challenging than on flat water. This model can be also used as addition to yacht in case you want to paddle to the shore in shallow water. It is a universal board with multiple possibilities of use, yet its advantage is the pointy nose (unique for all-around model) which makes this board fast and easy to maneuver.
Another model great for recreational use and family paddling is Bass Dual. Designed for some family fun on water, it can easily carry one adult person and a child or another adult. The both sides additional stabilizing chambers provide full stability. This is also a good board for fishing or photography expeditions and finally, can also be used as rescue board thanks to its handles on sides.
Cruising on a stand up paddle board were never as easy as with Bass Touring model. The board is more demanding in terms of balance, but provides nice glide on water for long distance paddling. Medium to advanced paddlers seeking for a board with some speed features will be satisfied. The long and profiled shape of this board will make long distance paddling more enjoyable. It is worth mentioning that this model is only few cm shorter than the race one (12'6″), however wider to provide more stability to paddler.
Taking part in stand up paddle competitions requires an ultra fast board. The official length for boards accredited in sup races are 12'6 and 14'. We provide you with inflatable race boards in both sizes (see in our online shop here). As proven on many stand up paddle competitions they are fast, yet they provide stability to easily put a lot of strength on paddle without loosing balance.
For sup surf practice you need a well almond-shaped board which can easily be operated by the movement of your hips and feet. The Bass X-Power model is a very maneuverable sup surfing board, easily taking turns. Good for occasional surfers to catch their waves everywhere all around the world as travelling with inflatable sup surfing board is super convenient (no more "oversized luggage" queue, no more "additional sport equipment" fee). Surfing board as designed by Bass was aimed to be pretty wide to glide on waves and not longer than classical longboard surf model 10'.
If you have an interest in floating yoga practice you should choose a board as wide and stable as possible. We highly recommend specially designed Bass Yoga model soon in the shop or Bass Dual as it gives the experience of stable ground on water. Bass Yoga board was especially designed for Yoginis looking for zen spirit on water. Beautiful lotus flower design and the quietness of water all around brings feelings of spirituality and harmony instantly.

The radical leftists from anti-gun groups have written law that has stripped our rights. Can you imagine the outrage from the media if NRA or SCOPE was writing laws for the government?
Also, the typical game played by the politicians: they will throw us a $350 bone just before elections. We in Wayne County will get a letter from Senator Nozzolio and one from Cuomo "we have given you a tax break of $350...." Blah, blah, blah. We were not born yesterday. This corrupt government is handing over our rights to special interest groups, then trying to bribe us to voting for them again.

Effective approaches for teaching vocabulary to various populations of learners is a topic of current research (Barr, Eslami, & Malatesha, 2012) yet little research is dedicated to students with learning disabilities in the science classroom. Within this study the interactive word wall was used as a tool to build vocabulary and to encourage usage of new subject-specific terminology. The experiment utilized quasi-experimental pre-post test comparison group design using interrupted time-series (Johnson & Christiensen, 2007) due to the inability to randomize participants and establish a clear control group. The data was collected across four units of terminology and with a student satisfaction survey. Students reported at least seventy percent satisfaction with the use of Interactive Word Walls and demonstrated some performance increase in both vocabulary retention and reading comprehension when utilizing Interactive Word Walls.
