The Scholars-in-Residence program began in 2016 as a collaboration between Victoria College and the Jackman Humanities Institute at the University of Toronto. In 2017, in only its second year of operation, 1,000 applications were received for 50 openings in the program. Clearly, there is a critical need for this type of humanities research opportunity at the undergraduate level. The Bader Endowment for the Scholars-in-Residence program will provide the funding needed to ensure students have access to the residency and co-curricular components of the program. Further, the endowed support offered by the Bader Endowment guarantees the program's ongoing growth and success while maintaining the highest standards of creative inquiry and engaged learning.
This immersive and intensive program for upper-year undergraduates promotes interdisciplinary humanities and social-science research. Working in teams of five, participants in the program engage in faculty-led research, thus acquiring advanced research skills and experience while collaborating with an intellectually vibrant community of peers, professors and research professionals. Students receive hands-on instruction in research techniques, and group activities include multidisciplinary workshops on research methodologies and professional communication.
The Bader family has a long tradition of supporting Victoria College. The Isabel Bader Theatre bears the name of Isabel (Overton) Bader, an alumna and recipient of an honorary doctorate degree from Victoria University. In addition, Isabel Bader has been extraordinarily generous in her support of students through the funding of many scholarships and bursaries. Hundreds of Victoria College students have received assistance over the years because of her unparalleled support. "Isabel and my father recognize the importance of creating traditional and unconventional experiences that open one's mind to explore what is possible in the world," said Daniel J. Bader, president and CEO of Bader Philanthropies. "The Scholars-in-Residence program, which spurs intellectual curiosity, complements the bricks and mortar that bear our family's name." Now, thanks to Bader Philanthropies, and the Isabel and Alfred Bader Fund, every student participating in the Scholars-in-Residence program can live in residence and be part of this transformational program which students have described as "life changing," "intensely rewarding" and "perhaps the most valuable experience of my undergraduate career." The Bader Endowment for the Scholars-in-Residence program contributes significantly to Victoria's vision for transforming undergraduate education.

A physiological measurement display comprises: a strip having: at least one conductive portion at an inner side thereof; an electronic device connected to the conductive portion; the electronic device having at least one physiological measure unit; and a display panel at an outer side of the electronic device for displaying physiological data from the physiological measure unit. The electronic device is installed with a level meter, or alarm lights or a speaker. The display panel is pivotally installed to the electronic device and is turnable for viewing. Two ends of the electronic device have buckling grooves and two ends of the strip have buckles engageable to the buckling grooves. The buckles and buckling grooves are conductive. The electronic device is installed with an auxiliary conductive portion or a conductive rubber.
The present invention relates to a physiological measurement display, wherein physiological measurement display provides the function of display, alarm light, speaker and level meter so as to provide various information to users. Furthermore, the display is turnable so that the user can view the data at different views.
The prior art physiological measurement strip has an elastic strip and a measure unit. The measure unit has a main body and a signal processor. The main body is made of flexible material and a backside thereof has two conductive cloths. The signal processor is installed at a front side of the main body and is electrically conductive to the conductive cloth. Two ends of the elastic strip are buckled to the main body for being worn on the breast of the user. The conductive cloths of the measure unit are adhered to the skin of the user so as to measure physiological data. The data is transferred to a computer, a PDA, a handset, etc. wirelessly so that the user and medical persons can assure the state of the users.
However, the prior art physiological measurement strip can measure physiological information to prevent accidents. As a whole, it is not an ideal one, this is because the physiological measurement display has only one LCD display light to indicate whether it is operated normally, but no display is installed to show the data real time. Thus various forms of receivers are used. However this is inconvenient.
Furthermore in emergency, the physiological measurement unit of the prior art has no auxiliary function to alert the user or medical persons. Furthermore, the design of the prior art can not be matched to persons of different sizes. For those persons with great sizes, they are not suitable for wearing the physiological measurement unit and thus the measurement data are not accuracy.
Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a physiological measurement display, wherein physiological measurement display provides the function of display, alarm light, speaker and level meter so as to provide various information to users. Furthermore, the display is turnable so that the user can view the data at different views.
To achieve above objects, the present invention provides a physiological measurement display which comprises: a strip having: at least one conductive portion at an inner side thereof; an electronic device connected to the conductive portion; the electronic device having at least one physiological measure unit; and a display panel at an outer side of the electronic device for displaying physiological data from the physiological measure unit. The electronic device is installed with a level meter, or alarm lights or a speaker. The display panel is pivotally installed to the electronic device and is turnable for viewing. Two ends of the electronic device have buckling grooves and two ends of the strip have buckles engageable to the buckling grooves; the buckles and buckling grooves are conductive. The electronic device is installed with an auxiliary conductive portion or a conductive rubber.
The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the appended drawing.

FIG. 10 is a schematic view about the conductive plate in the third embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, the physiological measurement display of the present invention is illustrated. The present invention has the following elements.
A strip 10 has two ends which are formed as buckles 11. The buckle 11 is a conductive body. An interior of the strip 10 is installed with two conductive portions 12 made of conductive body. The conductive portions 12 may have a form of a web, a stripe, or a sheet. The conductive portions 12 are in contact with the body of the user for measurement of an electronic device 20. The strip 10 is installed with an adjustment section 13 for adjusting a length of the strip 10.
The electronic device 20 has two ends which are formed as buckling grooves 21 for receiving the buckles 11 of the strip 10. An interior of the buckling grooves 21 are installed with conductive body so that the electronic device 20 is electrically connected to the strip 10 through the buckling grooves 21. The electronic device 20 is installed with a processor therein (not shown) so as to measure the physiological data of the user. An outer side of the electronic device 20 is pivotally installed to one end of a display panel 22. The display panel 22 serves to display the measuring data of the electronic device 20. The display panel 22 is turnable for viewing. The electronic device 20 is installed with alarm lights 23 of various colors and a speaker 24 for indication. The alarm lights 23 include a red light, a green light and a yellow light for showing different levels of alert conditions. The electronic device 20 is installed with a level meter 25 which has buoyant ball for viewing the horizontality and orientation of the users which are not good in equilibrium.
In use of the present invention, the adjustment section 13 is used to adjust the length of the strip 10, as illustrated in FIG. 2. The buckles 22 are buckled with the buckling grooves 21 of the electronic device 20. Then the conductive portions 12 of the strip 10 are conductive to the electronic device 20. The conductive portion 12 is adhered to the surface of the body of the user. Thus the measurement units in the electronic device 20 can measure the physiological data of the user, such as pulse rates, body temperature, etc. Other than wireless transmission functions, the electronic device 20 can provide physiological data through the display panel 22, alarm lights 23, speaker 24 and level meter 25.

It has been hinted that German international Mesut Ozil will be handed the opportunity to start in Arsenal's Europa League clash against BATE Borisov of Belarus on Thursday.
The former Real Madrid man has not been favoured by manager Unai Emery in the for his poor performance in recent time but he could be handed an opportunity to prove his critics wrong.
This, therefore, means that Nigerian international Alex Iwobi will start from the bench so as to be able to accommodate Mesut Ozil and new signing Denis Suarez in the game.
The performance of Mesut Ozil has further divided the fans with some holding the opinion that he be granted an opportunity to prove himself while others line behind the Spanish boss.
It was expected that the German international leave the Emirate Stadium in the last winter window with claims that the former PSG boss wants him out of the club but that has not happened with the star player claiming that he will remain at the club to for his shirt.
However, it is unclear if the German player will remain at the club after this season but this opportunity handed him will determine how much playing time he will get under the Spanish boss.
Ozil has done a lot for the club, one of the big reasons why Arsenal won silverware since his arrival. To waste such talent is a real shame. A manager should know how to use the talent he's got, he should not be in the business of demoralizing that talent and wasting it. In 2014/15 Wenger managed a side with Ozil that had among the best defense in the league. Don't blame Arsenal's poor defending on Ozil, it's 100% about how you setup your team.

SPEAKER, JEFF GOTRO, PH.D., CTO & PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR, ZILA WORKS
The objective of the work was to demonstrate the feasibility of a novel bio-based epoxy resin system derived from hemp seed oil for use in fiber reinforced composites (in this case a full-scale snowboard). Hemp is a renewable resource that is being grown in multiple locations in the United States and Canada. The hemp crop is beneficial to farmers and is carbon sequestering, thus providing a positive environmental impact. The work focused on developing the synthetic pathway to make a bio-based epoxy from commercially available hemp seed oil. A novel bio-based epoxy was synthesized from hemp seed oil. A bio-based epoxy formulation was developed to meet the technical requirements for the ski and snowboard industry. The final epoxy formulation that had greater than 50% bio-epoxy content and was used to build actual snowboards in a full- scale manufacturing production facility. The bio-based epoxy snowboards passed industry accepted testing protocols. The paper will highlight the key aspects of the product development work, scale-up and the snowboard build.

Which European country receives the most refugees?
January 16, 2020 Raymond
Malta – 2.7 per cent. Malta is the Western country that has received the most refugees relative to its population.
Which European country takes in the most refugees 2020?
1. Turkey. Over 3.65 million refugees are currently being hosted in Turkey, including 3.64 million Syrians (the balance largely comes from Iraq and Afghanistan), referred to in-country as "Syrians under temporary protection" by the government.
Which European country takes most immigrants?
"Among the EU Member States, Poland issued the highest number (683 thousand) of first residence permits in 2017, followed by Germany (535 thousand) and the United Kingdom (517 thousand)."
Turkey hosts the largest number of refugees, with 3.7 million people. Colombia is second with more than 1.7 million, including Venezuelans displaced abroad (as of mid-2021)….Welcome to UNHCR's Refugee Population Statistics Database.
Germany 1.2 million
Which is the best country to migrate in 2021?
Here Are Top 10 Countries to Migrate To
Switzerland: For a second time in a raw, Switzerland had been ranked the #1 best country in the world, ranked No.
What is the best country for asylum seeker?
Countries That Accept the Most Migrants. Immigration has roiled politics in countries around the world, as people flee violence, persecution and poverty to seek a better life.
No. 10: Italy.
No. 9: Canada.
No. 8: Chile.
No. 7: Turkey.
No. 6: United Kingdom.
No. 5: South Korea.
No. 4: Japan.
Does Hungary receive refugees?
At the end of 2015, Hungary established two transit zones near the fence along the Serbian border. Here, refugees were able to apply for asylum. However, in recent years, the conditions for staying there had become more and more restrictive. Couples and families were separated; only babies were allowed to stay with their mothers.
Are Hungarians considered white?
So, if they are considered white, so Hungarians are. There are some indigenious population whose skin is darker. Ethnic Roma ( gipsy ) people tend to have brownish skin (some ligher, some darker), but they consider themselves Hungarian, so it is no question that they think they are white.
What do Hungarians look like?
The 'average' look of a Hungarian might be hard to pin down, since Hungary is a very diverse nation ethnically. As a result pretty much any European phenotype can be found in Hungary, so the 'average' Hungarian might look as blonde and blue eyed as a Swede, or might look dark enough to pass as a Turk. What are Hungarian traits?
Where did Hungarians come from?
Most Hungarians live around parts of the area that was formerly known as the Kingdom of Hungary. Hungarians are said to have originated from the West of Ural Mountains migrating into areas around the Don River between the 4th and 6th centuries AD.

This database contains information about 2,465 Polish-Jewish physicians who perished during the Holocaust.
The "Medical Alliance - Association of Jewish Physicians from Poland" was created to assist physicians and their families who emigrated from Poland to the United States after the Nazis invaded Poland. The Alliance was started by a group of Polish physician immigrants living in New York, who arrived in the U.S. one or two generations before the WWII period.
Of the more than 3 million Jewish Poles that perished during the Holocaust, approximately 3,000 were physicians. It was the goal of the Alliance members to memorialize those physicians who perished during the Holocaust. The published volume was the product of the work of the original members of the Alliance, the original US members and those physicians who successfully immigrated to the US after the Nazi invasion. Therefore, this volume can be likened to a yizkor book for Polish Jewish physicians.
Falstein, Louis. The Martyrdom of Jewish Physicians in Poland. Studies by Leon Wulman and Joseph Tenenbaum. Research and documentation by Leopold Lazarowitz and Simon Malowist. (New York: Published for Medical Alliance-Association of Jewish Physicians from Poland, by Exposition Press, 1963). xii, 500 p., ill. OCLC: 528142.
Part Three of the volume is entitled "Martyred Physicians". It is an alphabetical listing of 2,465 summaries of Polish physicians who were known to have perished or disappeared during the Holocaust. Each listing has a short summary of basic biographical information about the physician and the details of the physician's death if known.
Information was extracted from the summaries and into the following fields. Not all records had the same amount of information. The goal of this project was to include as much information as possible on each individual; therefore, the "Other Information" field contains many valuable genealogical details.
Alternate surnames and given names may be due to physicians being known by both their "Polish" name and their "Yiddish" name.
Female physicians' surnames are listed in the surname column only if they were noted as "nee." There were many female physicians who had hyphenated surnames, but we did not assume the second name was a maiden name.
There were a number of physicians who went to more than one university. Either both were listed in the "Graduated From" field, or if there was a special reason, it might be included in the "Other Information" field.
There were a number of physicians who practiced in more than one location and then may have moved a number of times during the occupation. The original location is listed in the "City Where Practiced" field and the subsequent cities and the reason for their moves are listed in the "Other Information" field.
"Other Information" includes all other biographical information available, including alternate reports of the physician's death, movements to and from ghettos during the occupation, relationships to other physicians, secondary universities attended for additional specialties, secondary cities where practiced and details reported about deportation dates and places.
This list was compiled by Nolan Altman and is a result of the data sharing agreement between Yad Vashem and JewishGen.
Thanks to JewishGen Inc. for providing the website and database expertise to make this database accessible. Special thanks to Susan King, Warren Blatt and Michael Tobias for their continued contributions to Jewish genealogy. Particular thanks to the Research Division headed by Joyce Field and the volunteer project coordinators.
This database is searchable via both JewishGen's Holocaust Database and the All Poland Database.

Mania, Substance Abuse, and AUPD: Lex's Story
NOTE FROM THE EDITOR: The subject of this article, who has requested anonymity, told her story over four months' worth of interviews, and has consented to the publication of certain medical details mentioned.
"Do you know what a manic episode feels like?" Lex asks me.
I shake my head no.
"Well, it's like you have a lot of energy pent up and for days at a time. You can't sleep. I've gotten two hours of sleep a night. So you try to do something. You try to work out, you try to study, but it doesn't work. You get physically tired, but there's always this energy inside that's always there. I can't breathe, I'm too aware of everything I do and like other people can read my mind—I'm thinking 'will these people think I'm weird if I reach for my water?'—just thoughts like that. I can't really describe it. It's just a lot of weird energy."
She takes a moment to think. "I feel like there's this big pit in—you know, like an avocado pit? It's like if you stuffed it with anxiety."
Her manic episodes last days at a time. When I asked how long she gets between highs and lows, she told me every 4-5 days.
"I'll be on top of the world filled with energy for like a couple days," she describes. "But then the next morning, I can't bring myself to get out of bed."
On April 16, 2018, Lex walked into the AU Counseling Center during drop-in hours. There wasn't an opening then; none of the counselors were in. A psychiatrist, however, was, and suggested Lex leave and come back with an appointment—in two weeks. Two weeks after April 16 fell flat in the middle of finals week for the Spring 2018 semester, so Lex decided to take a referral to a psychiatrist off-campus.
At the end of April, Lex was diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and prescribed 25 milligrams of Lexapro. Over the summer, she saw a number of psychiatrists both in the District and back home. Her medication was bumped from 25 mg to 50 mg of Lexapro, and she spent the summer working. She kept herself busy by working, she told me, putting in eight to twelve hours a day, five or six days a week.
On August 13th, Lex stopped taking Lexapro altogether, citing ineffectiveness. "[At the time], I just didn't feel like it was working," she told me.
Lex arrived back in Washington, D.C. in mid-August. Her Welcome Week kicked off with a party at a fraternity house on the 22nd. Before and at the party, she told me, she got "cross-faded" and was left immobile toward the end of the night. She showed me a picture of herself, unconscious, on the floor of a bathroom. "I was trying to communicate with my hands, because my face wasn't working," she told me. "And it worked. I flexed some of my fingers in a pattern, and the people who were with me sort of understood."
After that party, Lex went out every night for the next three or four days. The details of what happened and where, she told me, were foggy. The only way to date her own habits, she explained, was by reading timestamps off of photos she had taken during each night out.
One night in late August, Lex told me she found herself sitting on the bathroom floor after her shower, unable to function. She had been off of Lexapro for two weeks at this point, and she had also been snorting hydrocodone-acetaminophen, more commonly known as Vicodin. Lex exited the bathroom and walked over to her living room, where she told me her roommates all were, and told them: "I just don't want to be alive right now."
That night, with her roommates in company, Lex admitted herself into Sibley Hospital, where she was tested and placed in inpatient care. Lex refers to inpatient care as "the psych ward." She was kept inpatient for three days and two nights, and given access to musical therapy and interactive activities with other patients.
"That's the only good thing about being an inpatient in a psych ward," Lex tells me. "You have others around you, and they're similar to you, and you're joking with them, you know?" she chuckles. "Like, we'd say things like 'because we're so filled with medication, we're like high on life, you know?' and stuff like that. It was probably the best part," she sighs. "I don't know."
During the visit, Sibley physicians diagnosed Lex with Bipolar Type II Disorder and replaced her self-discontinued Lexapro with prescriptions for Zoloft and Trazodone. They also discontinued her Vicodin, which had been prescribed to her near the beginning of the semester. She told me she had a history of snorting pills, most prominently Xanax throughout high school.
"Usually, they ease you into the new medicine," Lex tells me. "But I stopped taking the Lexapro on my own, so I guess they didn't think easing into the Zoloft was necessary."
When she returned to campus on August 29th, Lex met with an Assistant Dean of Students, Jaris Williams, who signed off on a Student Readiness to Return form. In the "Academic Readiness" section, a questionnaire determining a student's readiness to take on academic work, Williams indicated the following:
Is the student ready to re-engage in coursework (i.e. attend class, meet deadlines, complete work in a timely fashion, seek assistance as needed)? Yes No
Is the student able to manage a full course load (5 three-credit courses for undergraduates; 3 three-credit courses for graduate students) upon return? Yes No
Do you believe the student would benefit from a reduced course load (fewer than 5 courses for undergraduates and 3 courses for graduate students)? If Yes, how many courses do you believe the student can reasonably handle? Yes No
Is the student able to live independently without close supervision? Yes No
Is the student able to manage his or her own self-care? Yes No
Is the student able to live in a community that can be disruptive to routines (i.e. sleep, study) due to distractions and other causes? Yes No
Is the student able to live in an environment where s/he might be exposed to substances such as alcohol and other drugs? Yes No
Life was quiet for a while for Lex. For almost a full week. At around 10 a.m. on October 3, 2018, an hour before her first class of the day, Lex realized suddenly that she'd been in the library all night and that "something wasn't feeling right," she later told me. She picked up her things, left the library, and walked into the Counseling Center. Because there were no psychiatrists or nurse practitioners in the Counseling Center at the time, Lex was redirected to the Health Center.
Lex called two of her roommates, Abby and Jason (pseudonymous), to bring her medical file from her early September discharge at Sibley, which they did and handed over to the Health Center. Lex explained what felt wrong that morning to a university psychiatrist, Jessica Lu, who proceeded to check her vitals. (Lex told me Lu was the only medical personnel she interacted with in the Health Center that day.) Lu then reportedly deliberated in private with Medical Director David Reitman and a "Ms. Debbie."
All three agreed that Lex should be sent to the emergency room at Sibley Hospital, without explaining to her any details about her condition. Lex, however, resisted the verdict. "I know when I need to go to the hospital," Lex told me. "I didn't need to go." Lex's rationale was: in September, she checked herself into the ER because she was suicidal and was reporting "major depressive symptoms with suicidal ideations," according to the after-visit summary Sibley handed to Lex after her inpatient stay in late August. The morning in early October, however, was different. In contrast to the first visit, she did not report trouble breathing, lightheadedness, or suicidal thoughts.
After checking her vitals, Lu left Lex in a waiting room and talked privately with Reitman to determine the next course of action. In the waiting room, Lex repeatedly called both the non-emergency and emergency numbers of her off-campus psychiatrist, to no avail. (The psychiatrist was the same one referred to her by the Counseling Center the previous semester.)
Instead of acquiescing to Lex's understanding of her situation, Lu brought two AUPD officers back to the waiting room with her. "I was really unprepared for that," Lex later told me. The male officer reportedly sat down next to Lex, while the female officer remained standing. Reportedly, the physician stood furthest away from Lex, blocking the door.
"How are you feeling?" the male officer reportedly asked her. "What should we do next?"
Lex replied that she wasn't feeling well and needed access to a physician or nurse practitioner, but that she didn't need to go to the hospital—because Sibley would have placed her right back in the "psych ward" when she didn't need that form of care. She went on and asked if she could have access to the two roommates she just called, Jason and Abby, who were sitting in the main waiting area right outside.
In response, the male officer reportedly laughed. "Are you serious?" he allegedly asked. "[Your roommates] are 19 years old. We've transported students before. We know more than you."
"You need a plan before you leave this room," the female officer reportedly added. "We have a plan. You don't have a plan."
Under pressure from three adults at once, Lex finally agreed to be escorted to Sibley. The officers agreed to let her bring one of her roommates. Abby joined Lex in the police car. The two were driven in silence to the doorstep of Sibley Hospital, less than two miles away.


When is a house too big?
After 3 years of househunting, we have finally found a new home to fit our expanding family, but now I'm having second thoughts: do we really need more space? We will be going from about 1,200 to 2,800 square feet which will put us just above the national average home size of 2,459 square-feet, but given that the average back in 1970 was 1,400 square feet, I know even the average is not necessary.
I am comforted by the fact that our family of 4 is larger than the national average of 2.59, but my doubts stem from my knowledge that even as our family has grown by 2 over the past 3 years, we have accommodated the growth by putting a crib in our home office and have even managed to maintain a guest room.
While I hope our family grows by one more over the next year or two, I like the idea of our kids sharing a room. After all, some of my happiest memories were sharing rooms with nearly every one of my 5 siblings (one year we spent in a 3 bedroom condo with two sets of bunk beds in one room).
Knowing that one of my father's favorite books is The Not So Big House, I called him to get his opinion. While he believes, like the book's author, that you can pretty much have what you want by just being creative with a smaller house, I was surprised when he felt my impending increase in square footage was the right move.
He told me that moving from a 3-bedroom to a 5-bedroom home with us 6 children was the best decision he had ever made.
Not only did us kids, with our bedrooms a safe distance from our parents, have the freedom to set our own bedtimes and create our own lifestyles (including midnight dance parties), a bigger house also allowed my parents to open up their doors and our family to outsiders over the years: a Honduran immigrant, a homeless woman, exchange students from Belgium, Denmark and France and a cousin who became like a sister.
I doubt I will ever replicate my childhood, but I hope to have the freedom to invite guests into our home for extended periods. Whether it's exchange students, displaced people or my siblings visiting for the summer from their homes in Australia or Barcelona, I know that a larger home will allow me to open my doors without fearing for a loss of personal space.
To assuage any residual guilt about our larger footprint, I hope to learn from the example of my pre-carbon-offset-era parents: my father who installed solar panels on our roof in the 1970s (before they came into the vogue that they enjoy now) and my mother who insisted we layer on more clothes instead of turning on the heat.
Perhaps solar in Seattle isn't ideal, but I'm ready to start researching rainwater capture options.
* This February, the National Association of Homebuilders predicted that after over 3 decades of rising square footage, the home size growth spurt in the U.S. has finally come to an end.


FourFourTwo have ranked the 15 most productive players in the Premier League this season with goals and assists per minute.
It comes more surprisingly when you found out that Arsenal player Henrikh Mkhitaryan is better than Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial, meanwhile, Alexandre Laccazette is better than Paul Pogba.
Here is the list of the 15 most productive players of the league.

An intelligent speed limiter recognizes traffic signs meaning it should be almost impossible to get a speeding ticket.
In my experience, speeding tickets always happen when you least expect it. You relax a bit while driving and your foot rests a little too heavily on the gas pedal. Next thing you know, a camera flashes or flashing lights appear in your rear view mirror. Such occurrences could be a thing of the past if Ford's Intelligent Speed Limiter (ISL) system becomes a standard feature, though.
According to Green Car Congress, Ford is introducing its ISL system across Europe, where it will be available for the Kuga, Edge, S-Max, Galaxy, and new models of Fiesta. It offers two options. The first is an adjustable speed limiter the driver can set manually to limit speed to a predefined maximum. That can only do so much, though, as the speed limit can change often during a journey.
The second option is called Traffic Sign Recognition. It allows the car to automatically adjust the upper speed limit based on the traffic signs it detects. If the vehicle also includes onboard navigation, that information is used to better select the maximum speed. There is then a 5mph tolerance around that limit.
Using the vehicle's brakes to lower speed automatically when the maximum is passed wouldn't make for a very pleasant journey. Instead, Ford adjusts the amount of fuel delivered to the engine in order to control torque. By doing so, the speed can be lowered smoothly and without the driver having to do anything beyond realizing they were going too fast. It is possible to override the system by pressing the gas pedal down hard, but that's only a temporary relief when a bit of extra speed is necessary.
According to Stefan Kappes, active safety supervisor at Ford of Europe, the ISL system is proving popular because drivers hate getting speeding tickets.
Ford developed the ISL system in 2015 and first deployed it in the UK on the S-Max. When Car Magazine reviewed it last year, they concluded it definitely worked as a "handy safety net," but the accuracy needed to be improved. Now the system is being made available to more models in more countries, the extra data generated should help Ford continue to tweak and improve the system.


I'm pulling this one out of the archive closet. It really speaks to this newly purposed blog format for the Messy Room. And it also speaks to journaling the journey!
Those of you who signed up for our manifestation series will know what I mean when I say I am working on the first part of the formula. Got to walk the talk, right? So, I want to share a fun awareness that very quietly slipped into view last week – between the waxing moon and full moon.
Anyway, back to wandering the aisles, sipping coffee, and scanning the usual shelves. (Self help. Interior design. Philosophy. Metaphysical.) On my second visit, I found an angel card deck by Doreen Virtue that was not sealed and treated myself to a mini-reading. That must have been where my artist self saw her opportunity to sneak in because immediately afterward I landed in the art section, specifically the craft section, pouring through pages and pages of how to's. Papermaking, hand-bound journals, altered books, collages, artist trading cards. Art decorated with found objects given a new purpose. Bits and pieces of God knows what from God knows where. The funkier the better.
What kind of artist would you be today if you stepped back into your art, Bernadette?
Stepped back into my art? I wasn't aware that I had ever stepped out.
Since then, she has gently led me past my formal training in two-dimensional art and design to the little girl who drew paper dolls, designed their wardrobe, cut them out, and played with them. To the mixed media child who covered shoe boxes (inside and out) with aluminum foil and colored tissue paper and then glued bits of ribbon, broken pieces of jewelry, scraps of netting, plastic flowers (Yep. I'm a survivor of the tacky plastic flower era), rocks, seashells, and any other fair-game-found-objects into her little shadow box world. A world that was often integrated with religious themes; her favorite being those that incorporated a statue of the Virgin Mary from her mother's dresser in a grotto-like setting. (As grotto-like as you can get in a box covered with aluminum foil.) She especially liked to attach little handmade cards with a poem or verse – or better yet, the promise of a novena and gift her creations "To Mom." Creations that only a mother could love – and a blessed mother at that!
Viewing my intrigue for funky, mixed-media expressions of art these last couple of years as an anomaly, her reappearance assures me with a sense of continuity and leaves me with a distinct feeling that, when my life supports a little more time for creative expression of the visual kind, she will be the artist that gets to play.
Why? Because what she finds enthusiasm for is symbolic and rather plentiful in my life right now. Collage-like days that reflect bits and pieces of experiences combined not so much for the purpose of an obviously finished masterpiece but for the pleasure of an obviously unfinished process. Snippets of inspiration. Of this and that pulled together. Magical creations. Mixed-media expressions of a multi-dimensional spirit. Past. Present. Future. Revealed in the spontaneity of the moment. Clip it. Paste it. Throw a little glitter on it. What a wonderful meditative practice her art form could be. I find myself thinking about the kind of workshops she would want to give. Messy ones that tap into and somehow express sanctuary, spirituality, and the goddess – a la Mary and the grotto; prayers included.
So, my awareness in this first cycle? My artistic urges to gather fair-game-found-objects and hide them in shoe boxes in the back of my closet are, in fact, not an anomaly or a childish phase, but a clue. An answer. My artist self was there in the beginning with a purpose and has reappeared with a purpose – and I'm quite curious to see what we will be creating together.
Anybody else want to play? Pull out your shoe boxes and jump right in!
And if you like this, then LIKE this and SHARE it with your friends!
Ephemera, found objects, bits of this and scraps of that. That is who we are and what we are becoming and what we create. My art room is ready now after the move. Each day I walk past the messy room and long to hang out in there for awhile. But each day is filled with obligations from the other side of my life. So I give it a nod and of to the orderly part of the house and the more hectic side of my life. Uh, some day there will be time.
I can hardly wait to see your new messy room, girl … and I have a box of really cool glass jars that you can re-purpose … so clear a shelf for them!
"holds these things in trust for us, waiting for the moment when we are ready. " Thanks for the affirmation!
"Sometimes you've got to let everything go – purge yourself. If you are unhappy with anything . . . whatever is bringing you down, get rid of it. Because you'll find that when you're free, your true creativity, your true self comes out." Tina Turner. Tina Turner?..who knew..?
"The creative process is a process of surrender, not control." hmmm … Do I smell a set up here, Joseph? I can hear the angels laughing, "You know he's got you pegged on this one, B." 🙂 Is there such a thing as controlled surrender?
Lets just say, the more I can surrender the sweeter the creative process is and my 'best' ideas come when I least expect them … perhaps moments of absolute surrender? I think the control challenge as it relates to creativity for me is still one of time. And THAT process of surrender is not so sweet. I paint and write freely in my mind and in my dreams … however in the world of physical bodies I wrestle … so, thank God it's a process. That means I'm not finished and there is still hope. So, what do you think? Have I wriggled off the peg, J?
Well said. 🙂 Thank you for that 'breathing space' Joseph!
Reading this took me back again to my artsy crafty mother who glittered and gilted anything she could get her hands on (not that crafting is a "bad" thing… I made my contribution to the household funds from crafting for several years). And, I also remembered how when we lived at the beach I loved to collect little shells and decorate items – sometimes little boxes – other times little mirrors – with them. BUT, I had glass jars to keep my shells in and that along with my Elmer's glue could be kept out of the way so that everything remained "neat".
I read, with interest, the Julia Cameron quote. For the past week the book "The Vein of Gold" has been calling me… I bought it when it first came out (following The Artist's Way) and read a little and never got around to finishing (as is the case with a lot of books).
Like you, I need a sense of order in my home. (Don't always accomplish it but do try to strive for it.) I have my little sacred places that center me before I go out into the world. In working with people in their homes, I have to be centered or I am of no use to them as we sort through THEIR "shoe boxes & found objects." I often find myself time-traveling with them as they process though the feelings their stuff brings up as we release or re-purpose – so a sense of self and Source is important.
I like to make a distinction between creative clutter and out of control clutter. I have no trouble making a mess while I am working but have to clean up when I'm done. Finding what we need when we need it not only helps in the day-to-day living stuff but it is a must when the creativity bug bites. Nothing will throw a creative plan in the dumper faster than not being able to find one's tools because the critic's voice (that so many creatives fight) has time to gather forces while we are looking.
Who says a dining room has to remain a dining room if we really don't eat in it but twice a year? Ray knows an artist whose whole living room is her studio. You walk into her home and her beautiful mess is there to greet you! She has a den in the back of the house where she and her husband can hang out. Some might say it should be the opposite – studio in the back – but that is not who she is and as a result of her non-traditional dedication of a major portion of her home she is supported in her endeavors as an accomplished portrait artist who stays very busy!
I understand about the repurposing or combining to serve 2 or more purposes. I gave up having a 2nd guest room – where the hand-carved French Provincial furniture that I grew up with – and, became mine when I moved out – would be in order to have a room that would serve as a combination office & music room/recording studio. I'm really fine with not having a space to do other artsy-crafty things…at least for now. I've spent most of my life drawing, painting, doing needle-arts, stained glass, dried & silk arrangements, and much more. On the rare occassion I feel like I want to arrange something or paint something I have no qualms about clearing off either the dining room or kitchen table (by the way – we eat in the kitchen at lunch time and eat in the dining room every night, that we're home… I don't believe in having unused space or things…if it's in the house it gets used). This is the time to focus on music though…singing…drumming…etc… Trust me – if at some point I have a desire to do anyting differently and find or rearrange space, it's not a problem.
I don't know about where y'all are, but it is much too nice outside where I am to even worry about messy rooms right now 🙂 I want to play around with the ephemera found in what Mother Nature has left outdoors and in the warm soil! Of course, alas, it will not last……darn February. Happy Friday.

People from the Bay Area or those who live here are a proud bunch. But how do you define this magical place? Do you use geography to draw the boundaries? Maybe it's about sports teams and their fan bases or where BART goes? The hosts of the Bay Curious podcast at KQED explore the many ways we define the Bay Area.


In our life today, the need to stay fit and healthy is a must, reason why you should make sure that you will be guided accordingly to assure that you will actually achieve your goals at the end of the line, reason why you should make sure that you will know what to consider and what not to assure that you will land on the right personal fitness trainer.
However, locating and finding the best personal trainer will not be that easy to achieve, due to it being that the personality of people and trainers alike vary greatly, which is why you should ensure that you will consider personality traits when you consider to choose a personal trainer. You will find personal fitness trainers who will push you beyond your limits, there also are personal fitness trainers who are just comfortable with whatever you want, and there will also be personal fitness trainers that you can find that just can't work well with other people.
However, even if there is a wide range of possible personalities that you will find, the best one should be where both you and your personal fitness trainer are comfortable with each other because this should then lead to making everyone achieve their goals faster. For you to be able to stay fit, the need to secure that you will find a personal fitness trainer who is patient will surely be recommended because patience plays a major role in defining how the entire program ends, due to it being as well that you just can't stay fit within one or even two days.
Make sure that you really have to consider hiring the right personal fitness trainer because technically speaking, you main goal in enrolling such is to achieve your goals to get fit in the soonest possible time, given that the method used is proven safe. The personal fitness trainer that you will hire should help you with your exercise routine, as well as secure that you will be guided accordingly with the equipment that you will be utilizing to achieve and make your fitness goals come to reality.
You must also ensure that the personal fitness trainer you will hire has excellent communication skills, but not to the extent that they will turn out to be irritating at some point because it will also be their duty to guide you and make you understand on why you do such things and what not. The reason why communication is vital is because it should lead to a number of possible risks, a good example would be that your right arm is weak and that you can't perform well with it, but with communication, possible threat and risk should be avoided.


Like its German counterparts, BMW and Mercedes, Audi has a number of performance level trims on many of their most popular models. However, there aren't very many RS trims available in comparison to it's slightly milder little brother the S option. Oh, and in case you are wondering, RS stands for exactly what you want it to – racing sport.
2018 wasn't a very successful year for Audi. Deliveries fell by 3.5 percent compared to the year before, with Audi blaming the changeover from the NEDC to WLTP test cycle restricting product availability. At the company's Annual General Meeting held in Neckarsulm, Audi reflected on its "unsatisfactory performance in 2018" and outlined how it plans to bounce back this year with a massive product onslaught, in what will be a "transition year" for the company.
This year's most important model launch for Audi will be the e-tron SUV, the automaker's first-ever EV, buy Audi confirmed we can expect more than 20 new or updated models to launch in 2019. These will include refreshed versions of the A4 and Q7, as well as nine new S models and four powerful R and RS models from Audi Sport.
Audi hasn't confirmed which S models will launch this year, but we're expecting to see the S8 along with the SQ8, S7 Sportback and the S6 in both Sedan and Avant variants. The SQ2 facelift will launch in Europe in the first quarter, and the SQ3 could also potentially this year. Keep in mind that camouflaged prototypes of these models have been spied undergoing testing, which suggests they should break cover this year.

Class of 2018's Advice for the Incoming 2019 Class.
"I cannot be any more grateful for my ATI experience and everything you all have taught us. I look forward to what lies ahead and every new experience and patient encounter."
"I found Mark, Jim, and Kimber to be knowledgeable and patient teachers. Any questions from the student body were entertained and answered to the fullest extent possible. The Hands-on lab experience was invaluable to myself. I learned tips and tricks that I expect to use often in my clinic.
"Thanks to all of you for making my experience at ATI's jumpstart course a memorable one. From my first phone call to Denise to my bitter sweet last day of class. I was made to feel welcome and comfortable.
"I used many materials to prep for the IBHRE®, but ATI's was the most comprehensive by far. If I had to pick just one book to study, ATI's would be it!
"ATI is an unparalleled stepping stone into the world of CRM, providing didactic and practical hands-on training. Attending ATI was, without a doubt, one of the best decisions I have ever made. In my time there, I was able to discover the true depth of the pacing industry-from both technical and patient care perspectives. I was provided with excellent networking resources and a true extended family all over the United States. ATI is definitely more than just a "training" institution. It is a comprehensive and life-changing experience that I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking a position in this field.
"ATI provided me the invaluable opportunity to gain the knowledge and hands-on experience necessary for a successful career in the competitive cardiac device industry. The small class sizes and excellent teaching helped me not only pass the NASPE exam, but also build a nation-wide network of colleagues in the industry. Additionally, I feel that ATI allowed me to hit the ground running with my new job, contribute immediately to the sales process, and physician groups in their management of their patients, and most importantly, provide patients with quality service and care.
"Attending ATI was the best career decision I have made. ATI provided the best opportunity to set myself up for success in the CRM Industry.
"I am proud of the fact that I can claim the honor of being a graduate of ATI. Although U had no prior clinical knowledge, the school, through the instruction of Mark, Jim, and Rick gave me the tools I needed to become an effective member of the CRM community. Prior to the school, CRM representatives were usually selected from "Drug Rep", Nursing, or clinic backgrounds. I was blessed with the unique distinction of being the first student hired directly to industry. As I travel throughout the country in my current position, I am constantly amazed to meet ATI graduates in almost every city I have worked in.
"It is extremely important to include practical hands on field experiences during the training. All the didactic class room studies begin to come together as students apply their new knowledge in real clinical settings. My goal is to provide experiences for the student to "be the rep" and take the lead as much as possible allowing them to feel the role and challenge their new skills helping them discover new things to learn during live scenarios.
"I can simply say what I tell most people who ask me about ATI. I usually say, "ATI was more that a pacemaker school experience, it was a LIFE experience for me and my family." The knowledge I received at ATI from both the classroom and clinical experiences has given me a tremendous advantage at jumpstarting my career with Medtronic.
"ATI not only taught me the technical aspect of pacing, but taught me how to treat the patient and not just the device. I now have a well-rounded knowledge of the cardiac field. I enjoy working in a clinical role because I get to treat patients on a daily basis, which I never dreamed I would be able to do with my engineering degree. ATI gave me the opportunity for a unique role in the medical community, where I can truly make a difference in people's lives every day.
"ATI gave me the opportunity to pursue and attain my goal to enter the CRM industry. The training and coaching provided was first class. I hold the teachers at ATI in the highest regard and value their friendship. Overall it was a great experience and a life changing event in my career.
"Every single day I wake up and think back to the wonderful experience I had at ATI and to all the doors it has opened for my career and life. So, thank you for allowing me that opportunity almost two years ago now!

Azerbaijan celebrates 104th anniversary of its Independence

Azerbaijan Democratic Republic
On 28 May, Azerbaijanis worldwide celebrate the "Independence Day". 104 years ago on this significant day, Azerbaijan Democratic Republic (ADR) – predecessor of the modern Republic of Azerbaijan was proclaimed.
The establishment of the ADR was a historic event for Azerbaijan in many regards:
It was the first democratic republic in the Muslim East. Declaration of Independence, which was adopted by this young republic on 28 May 1918, was an exemplary policy document, reflecting true principles of democracy and rule of law.
For the first time in Islamic world, Azerbaijan granted suffrage to women. This happened in 1918, which was way ahead of many western countries. In comparison, several European countries like the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg granted women right to vote in 1919, France in 1945.
The first Parliament of Azerbaijan was established in 1918. Azerbaijani Parliament was a forum where representatives of many religious and ethnic groups could freely, indiscriminately and equally voice their opinions. The Parliament united members of different ethnicities: Azerbaijanis, Russians, Jews, Armenians and even one German.
The territory of ADR in 1918 was much larger than the current territory of Azerbaijan. It consisted of 114 thousand km². In comparison, Azerbaijan's current territory is only 86.6 thousand km².
ADR succeeded in implementing many progressive reforms in Azerbaijan, despite the geopolitical challenges. However, independence of ADR came to an end after 2 years. In April 1920, Red Army entered Azerbaijan. However, Azerbaijani people never forgot the ideals and principles of democracy taught by their ancestors and still celebrate 28 May as their National Day.
