60 Hudson Street, anteriormente conocido como el Western Union Building, es un edificio de telecomunicaciones que abarca toda la manzana entre Hudson Street, Thomas Street, Worth Street y West Broadway en el barrio de Tribeca en Manhattan, Nueva York. Fue construido entre 1928 y 1930 y diseñado por Ralph Walker, del estudio arquitectónico Voorhees, Gmelin and Walker como la sede de Western Union, función que cumplió hasta 1973. El edificio contiene oficinas, un auditorio, cafetería, tiendas y salas de equipo, junto con 70 millones de metros de cable.

El diseño del edificio muestra la influencia del expresionismo alemán, mientras que el detalle es art decó. Los ladrillos exteriores del edificio combinan tonos oscuros y claros a medida que el edificio se eleva, con una combinación de 19 colores en la fachada. Tanto el interior como el exterior del edificio, que ahora es uno de los concentradores de internet más importantes del mundo, fueron designados monumentos de Nueva York en 1991.

Concentrador de Internet
Durante el apogeo del telégrafo, el Western Union Building era el primer nexo de comunicaciones en todo el mundo. Desde que Western Union trasladó su sede a Nueva Jersey, el edificio se ha convertido en un centro de colocación, donde más de 100 empresas de telecomunicaciones tienen oficinas y pueden intercambiar tráfico de internet a través de una Meet-me-room y líneas de fibra óptica individuales. Es una vez más el primer nexo de comunicaciones en todo el mundo. La habitación se encuentra en la novena planta en una zona de 15.000 metros cuadrados que es alimentada por una planta de energía de 10.000 amperios. En 2012, un equipo de negociación algorítimica se instaló en edificios cerca de éste con el fin de llevar a cabo el tráfico de microsegundos más rápidamente que Wall Street a una milla de distancia.

En 2006, un jurado de la ciudad de Nueva York aprobó el almacenamiento de cerca de 7.500 litros de combustible diesel en seis plantas del edificio, parte de 300.000 litros de aceite combustible almacenados en el edificio. Hubo una gran oposición por parte de la comunidad, ya que la presencia de aceite combustible ocasionaba un riesgo de incendio que podría resultar en una falla catastrófica del edificio, similar a lo que le sucedió al World Trade Center 7, que se derrumbó tras los atentados del 11 de septiembre de 2001.

Want an idea for using that mesh ribbon you have leftover and don't know what to do with? Something that doesn't involve a POUFY wreath or garland? Why not make a Mesh Ribbon Angel! So pretty and easy to do!
Cut out five trapezoid-like shapes approximately 3 inches x 12 inches making sure you include the side borders of the ribbon.
Fold over the edges to form cone shapes and seal with clear drying fabric glue, making sure one of the narrow openings will fit the shank end of a ball ornament. It's easier if you glue together starting at the bottom of the cone with a triangular shape forming a point and move up.
Glue the ball ornament into the narrow end of the cone for the head.
This is the main body.
Attach cones to the left and right of main body, matching ends and points (see picture).
Next, cut away half of forth cone, discarding the top portion, and place inside of the middle body cone just at the edge and glue at the back edge.
Insert the fifth and final cone into the fourth cone and glue to back.
Shape a ribbon into a bow and glue behind the base of the ball for the wings.
Add accessories or embellishments to your angel.
For the halo, I dipped jute twine in mod podge and wrapped it around a glad wrap covered rod and let dry - for a quicker way, use a pipe cleaner.
Elastic loop for hanging is added to the back.
This color of mesh ribbon reminds me of sheer burlap (if that's possible) for an elegant rustic look.
The finished angel is approximately 16 inches long from top to bottom tip.
This mesh ribbon angel is a larger variation to the ribbon angel ornaments I made here.
Imagine the possibilities in making and decorating these adorable mesh ribbon angels.
So have some fun and make lots!
you never cease to amaze girl! So pretty!
Great way to use all those little bits and pieces. The angel would make a great tree topper.
Cute Gail! You have given me some much needed inspiration for Christmas! Thanks so much!
That is a lovely angel and you made it look so easy. :) Wow, that is a lot of linky's you connect with. You keep yourself super busy huh? I'm stopping by via the craft and shop hop hosted by Melissa.
Thanks Sara! I know the linky lists looks overwhelming but I don't connect with all of them. They come and go. I'm such a novice with my blogging posts and for me listing them this way saves me time. Wish I could come up with a better way.
Gail, it's precious! I'm starting to like the mesh crafts.
Those are neat! BTW I'm popping in from the Friday Follow Along link-up.
Oh I love your angel Gail! She's rustic and elegant at the same time. Just beautiful!
Your angel is precious...congrats on the feature over @ lifeonlakeshoredrive!
Very clever way to use smaller pieces of mesh ribbon up! What type of glue did you use to join the pieces of mesh ribbon together?

Don Drummond est né le  à Kingston, Jamaïque, dans le quartier de Trenchtown. Il est mort le  à Kingston. C'est un tromboniste et compositeur jamaïcain issu du jazz, il restera une des plus grandes légendes du ska et de la musique jamaïcaine pour son œuvre individuelle ainsi que pour sa carrière au sein des Skatalites, groupe mythique formé en 1963.

Biographie
Don Drummond était parmi les figures les plus représentatives du ska et un des membres fondateurs des Skatalites. Il fut le compositeur le plus prolifique dans son genre, avec près de 300 titres sous son nom.
Même avant la naissance du ska, Drummond était déjà considéré comme une légende jamaïcaine pour ses prouesses en jazz et en tant que professeur des jeunes orphelins de l'Alpha Boys School de Kingston. C'est d'abord en tant qu'élève qu'il fréquente cet établissement sous la direction de Rupert Anderson. La tradition veut que les anciens pensionnaires deviennent par la suite professeurs. Il enseigne alors à Rico Rodriguez, Vernon Muller, Joe Harriott et Vincent Gordon.

Don Drummond intègre par la suite les orchestres locaux tel que le Colony Club Orchestra d'Eric Dean ou le Tony Brown Orchestra. Aimant le jazz, il forme un groupe, le Don Drummond Four et est élu meilleur tromboniste de l'année 1954. Clement Dodd le repère lors d'un de ses shows et l'embauche dans ses groupes de studio (les Blues Blasters, The City Slickers ou le Studio One Orchestra), où officient plusieurs futurs Skatalites. Sa carrière de studio commence en 1956, il a principalement enregistré des specials (enregistrements originaux et exclusivement pour sound system). En 1959, cependant, ces specials ont commencé à être commercialisées pour la Jamaïque puis l'Angleterre. Drummond enregistre également pour les producteurs Leslie Kong (Spitfire), Vincent Chin (Don't Bury Me, Dandy Don D.), Prince Buster (That Man Is Back, Dewdrops, Corner Stone), Justin Yap (Ringo, Confucious, Ska-Ra-Van) et Duke Reid (Eastern Standart Time, Occupation, Let Georges Do It).

Ses premières influences viennent de grands jazzmen américains tels Jay Jay Johnson ou Kai Winding. Le génie de Don Drummond n'est pas venu sans prix, il fut un homme notoirement excentrique qui a souffert de schizophrénie, son comportement erratique lui ayant valu le surnom de "Don Cosmic" de la part de Dodd. Il était fréquent que lors de concerts, il s'arrête de jouer et reste immobile sur la scène devant un public remuant. Il est l'un des premiers musiciens rasta et fréquente les groundations de Count Ossie. Ses titres King Solomon, African Beat, Mesopotamia ou Addis Ababa rendent hommage à l'Afrique et quant à Marcus Junior et Garvey Burial, dédiés à Marcus Garvey, ils témoignent de ses convictions et de sa foi.

Drummond est devenu par la suite un des chefs créateurs et spirituels des Skatalites. En 1964, le Ska inonde les ondes hertziennes jamaïcaines tout au long de l'année, et il participe à des dizaines de séances d'enregistrement. Les Skatalites accompagneront les stars jamaïcaines de l'époque tel que Joe Higgs ou Jackie Opel mais également une nouvelle génération où l'on retrouve Delroy Wilson, The Wailers, Lee 'Scratch' Perry et Ken Boothe.

Man in the Street, composition de Drummond, rentre dans le Top 10 au Royaume-Uni en 1964, et un an après, son adaptation du thème du film "Guns of Navarone" réussit le même exploit en Angleterre.

Le nouvel an 1965, il se rend au commissariat pour le meurtre de sa femme, une danseuse nommée Anita 'Margarita' Mahfood (que l'on peut entendre sur le titre Woman A Come), poignardée. Son corps a été trouvé dans sa maison, la victime avait de multiples blessures causées par des coups violents. Drummond a été considéré comme non-responsable de ses actes par le tribunal et interné au Bellevue Hospital.

Il meurt le  à l'âge de 37 ans. Sa mort a suscité d'étranges rumeurs (notamment une vengeance de la famille de sa concubine ou un suicide), la version officielle étant une mort naturelle. Heather Augustyn, auteur d'une biographie exhaustive de Don Drummond parue à l'été 2013, affirme avoir la preuve que la mort de Don Drummond fut causée par les médicaments administrés à l'hôpital de Bellevue et qu'il était impossible que la famille d'Anita Mahfood ait été derrière un meurtre de vengeance.

Springbank 18 Year Old Single Malt (700ml)
Scotch Learn More
Springbank is one of the few surviving distilleries in the Campelton region which was once the epicenter for illegal stills and by far the highest producing whisky region in Scotland. In 1828, the Reid brothers (in-laws of the Mitchell family) and Archibald and Hugh Mitchell built the legal Springbank distillery on the site of a former illicit still in Campbeltown. A decade later, the Reids fell on hard times and sold their remaining shares to the Mitchell family who still own and operate the distillery today.
A combination of an excess of low quality Cambeltown whisky and prohibition hit the region hard in the early 20th century and the Springbank distillery went on hiatus from 1926 – 1933. Many other Cambeltown distilleries were not so lucky and never reopened, and this led to the near collapse of the whisky industry in the region.
Today, Springbank remains one of the only family-owned single malt distilleries in Scotland and is one of only two distilleries (the other being Kilchoman) that carries out every step of its production on-site. They still use in-house floor-malting for all of their barley and even bottle their whisky on-site. As a result, they are one of the most sought-after by whisky lovers but also one of the best places to learn the entire whisky-making process from grain to bottle for aspiring distillers.
This dram is a deep amber hue with loads of berry fruit (red and blue), yogurt, turkish apricots, vanilla, and a subtle bonfire smoke accent on the nose. The Palate is rich, oily, and powerful with flavours of toffee cakes, marzipan, prunes, and chocolate giving way to stranger savoury notes of mushroom and oyster shells. The finish is bold and long with waves of saltwater toffee, honey, and peppery anise and smoky cloves.
This is certainly a thinking dram as the sherried fruit and richness leap out at you at first but there are tons of mysterious and savoury elements that lurk in the background. A bit like playing "Where's Waldo" trying to figure exactly what that flavour you're tasting is.
There are a few Scottish distilleries that still malt their own barley but Springbank is one of only two distilleries which malts 100% of its own barley, using the traditional floor maltings. The whole production process: malting, milling, mashing, fermentation, distillation, maturation and bottling happens on site in Campbeltown. A small portion of the malt for Springbank is peat-kilned lending the finished spirit a subtle coastal, briney, and smokey flavour.
Springbank uses two 6000 liter copper pot stills with a speyside shape (wide bottomed with relatively tall conical necks) to make their spirit but are once again unqiue in that they use a distinctive two and a half times distillation method to preserve complexity while creating a smooth-textured spirit.
In the case of the Springbank 18 year, a combination of ex-sherry casks (80%) and ex-bourbon barrels (20%) are used for maturation to impart depth of fruit without obscuring the distillery characteristics. After a minimum of 18 years maturation, the whisky is diluted to 46% alcohol by volume and bottled. None of Springbank's bottlings are chill-filtered nor is any additions for colour stabilization or caramel used.
It is a poorly-kept secret that although I love wine, whisky was my first love. As the air gets crisp each autumn, I return to it. There is no better way to celebrate Halifax's best-dressed season than with a dram of whisky. This year I've chosen the exclusive (9000 bottles made) Springbank 14 Bourbon Wood. The nose has plenty of warming spices, vanilla, and baked pear richness but doesn't forsake the sooty and sea-breeze driven profile of all good Campbelltown whisky. The palate has an added toasty sweetness and depth that helps balance the creosote, liquorice, and more challenging phenolic flavours of Springbank without obscuring them. This is like a liquid wood-stove ready to warm you up just as the chill sets in.

Cal State LA celebrates seven decades of alumni art at 'Legacies' exhibition
California State University, Los Angeles is celebrating acclaimed alumni who have made lasting contributions to the world of art with the "Legacies" exhibition.
The Cal State LA Fine Arts Gallery was packed with more than 300 guests who admired a wide range of work at the September 9 opening.
The exhibit, organized in commemoration of the University's 70th anniversary, was conceived and curated by renowned artist and Cal State LA alumnus Mark Steven Greenfield. "Legacies" showcases work from different genres that spans seven decades and will be on display at the Fine Arts Gallery until September 30, Monday through Friday from noon to 5 p.m.
Greenfield said "Legacies" is a testament to the exceptional talent that has emerged from the Cal State LA Department of Art. "What I want to do is really focus attention on that," he told guests at the exhibition.
Legacies features works by distinguished artists Linda Arreola, Joan Carl, Kim Dingle, Daniel Douke, Kathi Flood, Mark Steven Greenfield, Calista Lyon, Kaz Oshiro, John Thomas Riddle, Jr., Frank Romero, Ben Sakoguchi, Norman Schwab, Kent Twitchell, Lisa Diane Wedgeworth and La Monte Westmoreland.
"These are all artists I wanted to show with for a long time," said Greenfield, whose art teacher in high school was Riddle.
Greenfield earned a Master of Fine Arts in painting and drawing from Cal State LA in 1987. He was an arts administrator for the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, serving first as the director of the Watts Towers Arts Center and the Towers of Simon Rodia, and later as director of the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery. His work has been exhibited in museums and galleries internationally and across the United States.
A highlight of "Legacies" is Riddle's collection of ammunition boxes created during the height of the Vietnam War. This installation has rarely been shown in its entirety and is made possible through the generous cooperation of the California African American Museum.
Among the featured pieces is Red Chevy, a colorful oil-on-wood depiction of a stylish lowrider by Romero, a pioneering Chicano artist. Other works contain a more somber message, such as Towers by Sakoguchi. The acrylic-on-canvas piece uses vivid imagery to portray several internment camps where people of Japanese ancestry were incarcerated during World War II, including the camp in Poston, Arizona, where Sakoguchi and his family were held.
As he stood next to his pencil-on-board sketches of Sammy Davis, Jr. and Steve McQueen, Twitchell expressed his appreciation for the education he received at Cal State LA and the opportunity to have his art displayed at "Legacies."
"I am just humbly honored to be part of this exhibit and have my work shown with these incredible artists," Twitchell said.

Mysterious All
KNOW THE MYSTERIOUS WORLD
← Parade of Planets in 2012 could be the end of the world
The biggest mystery of civilization, or we all came from Lemuria? →
What happened to the-Mary Celeste?-Ghosts of the seas
A History of Mary Celeste – perhaps was the most mystical and mysterious in the history of navigation. Unravel this mystery, we may not be never. Many writers have described the world in his works that in their opinion, there was the famous ship. One of these authors is that everyone knows about Arthur Conan Doyle.
But where do you all begin?
November 10, 1872 the brigantine "Mary Celeste" was published in New York with a cargo of rectified spirit in casks and headed for Genoa. The crew of the brigantine was composed of eight people. The captain of the brigantine was Benjamin Briggs, who was by then twenty years of experience sailing on sailboats. On that memorable flight Briggs took with him his wife and daughter swimming.
A strange discovery
Ship "Mary Celeste" was found without a team December 4, 1872, 400 miles from the Straits of Gibraltar, the ship "Dey Grace." In the logbook of the last record was listed November 24, 1872. Judging from her ship, ten days before its discovery, has headed east, and the sailors met him walking on the west.
On deck, the hatch was open bow hold, it was about three feet of water. There was no single boat. On the starboard side railings were made by deep notches with an ax. All the windows were closed superstructure aft canvas, and boarded up. Along the sides of the brigantine were cuts inch wide, two meters in length on each. Detectives have established that these cuts have been made by some carpentry tool around in late November, just at a time when the ship's log was made last record.
Living in cabins located in their seats, beds were neatly tucked, clothes hung on hangers. In the drawing-room looked as if people just left. At the dinner table was laid out plates, cups, knives and forks. Inside I was a sewing machine with an unfinished work – children's shirts. The floor was littered toys. In the drawer was made of wood, inlaid with mother of pearl box, in which, besides jewels, was found a thick bundle of banknotes, which completely rejects the possibility of attacks by pirates. It is amazing and the fact that the sailors did bring pipes, which they never leave!
A week before the discovery of the vessel in the vicinity of the Azores was no storms, and on board all stood in their places. All the dishes were also intact. Underwater inspection of the vessel led to the conclusion that it is not faced with anything.
Unfortunately, the information has come down to our days, the exact description of the brigantine found – is controversial. For example, according to one version, one of the barrels were opened and it did not have a third, but on the other – the last barrel was completely empty.
If the barrel was opened, it can be assumed that the sailors on the ship could be in a state of intoxication. Lack of boat shows, the team left the ship on it. Broken compass, the absence of any documentation other than the ship's log shows that the vessel was abandoned in a hurry, but it is not clear why the team did not take it with you drinking water? The reason why the team left the ship in a hurry, maybe which was in the bilge water, perhaps, the team suggested that the vessel is in danger of flooding. However, another reason why the team could leave the ship, and could be a wave of infrasound, which inspires fear and incredible crew team in a rush down with the ship. About this phenomenon I mentioned in an article on "Flying Dutchman".
Captain Morehouse towed into Gibraltar brigantine port, where the Admiralty authorities immediately launched a thorough investigation that lasted 11 years, but has not issued any definite verdict. Here's the final word commission: "In the absence of any data that could shed light on this matter to be feared that the fate of the crew of" Mary Celeste "will increase the number of the mysteries of the ocean themselves, which will be opened only in that great day when the sea give up their dead. If the crime was committed, what makes the suspect lot, there is little hope that the perpetrators were brought to justice. "
The most successful version of the incident
It would have sunk into oblivion, this mysterious story, if not for the investigation of Arnold Phillimore, English historian and essayist. He studied many such mysteries, and not having avoided the famous "Mary Celeste".
During the investigation it came to a startling discovery. Exploring various sources and documents of the time, he came to the conclusion that this whole mysterious story was not mysticism, and common history of smuggling. According to Phillimore, ship carried an empty keg from under the false spirit of the brand.
In addition, Phillimore, and explains the mysterious disappearance of the crew of the ship. It turns out that the Italian authorities were informed about the illegal cargo, released from New York to Genoa, and sent a police boat to intercept the brigantine. But the criminals on alert and were also aware of plans by police to intercept the brigantine. They, in turn, sent the schooner "Lombardy" in the interception of the brigantine, which he reached the final, took all of its inhabitants and its precious cargo on board. But here's the fate of the schooner, unfortunately, was not as happy as the fate of "Mary Celeste". The ship hit a storm and all its inhabitants were killed, along with valuable cargo – marks.

Macau Property prices 'too high' but no immediate action to be taken
The 6th meeting of the Macau-Portugal Joint Commission meeting, which was held in Lisbon on Wednesday, concluded with consensus on the further fostering of bilateral cooperation, including in economic and trade matters and Portuguese-language education, according to a statement by the Macau Government Information Bureau (GCS) yesterday.
The meeting was co-chaired by Chief Executive Fernando Chui Sai On and Portuguese Foreign Minister Augusto Santos Silva.
Chui is leading a Macau government delegation on a nine-day official visit to Portugal ending on Sunday.
During Wednesday's meeting, Chui and Santos Silva witnessed the signing of a bilateral agreement on the surrender of fugitive offenders and a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on the automatic reciprocal recognition of diplomas and academic degrees.
Chui said that the two accords signed on Wednesday and another MOU signed on Tuesday – were the outcome of joint efforts by Macau and Portugal over a long period of time.
According to the GCS statement, Chui and Santos Silva briefed the media after the closed-door meeting. The chief executive said the two sides would work more closely in order to deepen cooperation, on the basis it would be mutually beneficial.
The meeting also reviewed several areas of Macau-Portugal cooperation.
Chui told the media the areas included economics and trade, financial services, education and promotion of the Portuguese language, cultural exchanges, science and technology, mutual assistance on judicial affairs, healthcare, and sports.
Chui said the role of the Macau-based Forum for Economic and Trade Co-operation between China and Portuguese-speaking Countries was expanding in importance.
Chui noted that trade last year between China and Portuguese-speaking countries reached US$147.3 billion, 13 times more than in 2003, when the forum was set up.
Chui also said the Macau government would support Portuguese youth entrepreneurship projects involving Macau and other cities in the central government's Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area (GBA) conurbation project, which comprises nine cities in Guangdong as well as Macau and Hong Kong
Santos Silva told reporters the meeting focused on economic cooperation and Portuguese language teaching and education.
Strengthening bilateral economic and trade exchanges would contribute to Macau's ongoing effort to diversify its economy, Santos Silva said.
GBA initiative
The two sides also explored, during the meeting, opportunities arising from the Greater Bay Area initiative. Santos Silva said he believed the city-cluster initiative would not only bring new opportunities for economic development, but also create new prospects for closer ties between Portugal and China as a whole and his country and Macau. In future, Portugal would deepen its links with provinces in mainland China, he added.
Secretary for Administration and Justice Sónia Chan Hoi Fan, Secretary for Social Affairs and Culture Alexis Tam Chon Weng, Chui's Chief-of-Office O Lam, GCS Director Victor Chan Chi Ping, Lisbon-based Macau Economic and Trade Office Director O Tin Lin and Chui's advisor Chan Sao Iok attended the meeting.
The Macau-Portugal Joint Commission was established under the Framework Agreement of Cooperation between the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Portuguese Republic, with the aim of strengthening cooperation between the two sides.

Patrick Doherty Inherited A Devastating Disease. A Breakthrough Stopped It
By Rob Stein
Published June 28, 2021 at 6:35 AM CDT
Scientists are reporting another big advance using the revolutionary gene-editing technique called CRISPR to treat diseases. For the first time, doctors have simply infused CRISPR into patients' bloodstreams to try and help them. And it appears to have worked.
NPR health correspondent, Rob Stein, has more.
ROB STEIN, BYLINE: Patrick Doherty had always been really active - trekking the Himalayas, hiking trails in Spain. But he suddenly started feeling pins and needles in his fingers and toes. And his feet got cold. And then one day, he noticed he was running out of breath just walking his dog in County Donegal in Ireland, where he lives.
PATRICK DOHERTY: I'm kind of getting a bit breathless going up a small hillside here in Donegal, which - there are many (laughter). So I realized something was wrong. Something was wrong.
STEIN: Turns out, he had inherited a rare but devastating disease that killed his dad, known as amyloidosis. A deformed protein was damaging parts of his body, like nerves in his fingers and toes and his heart. He had watched two uncles and neighbors also die awful deaths from amyloidosis.
DOHERTY: It's just dreadful.
STEIN: So Doherty, who's 65, was thrilled when he found out that doctors were testing a new way to treat amyloidosis, using CRISPR, which allows scientists to make very precise changes in DNA.
DOHERTY: I thought, fantastic. I couldn't believe my luck.
STEIN: CRISPR has already started helping patients suffering from the blood disorders sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia. And doctors are trying to use it to treat cancer and restore vision to people blinded by a rare genetic disorder. But those experiments involve taking cells out of the body, editing them in the lab and infusing them back in, or injecting CRISPR directly into cells that need fixing. The study Doherty volunteered for is the first in which doctors are simply infusing the gene editor and letting it find its own way to the right gene in the right place - in this case, a gene in cells in the liver pumping out the destructive protein.
John Leonard is the CEO of Intellia Therapeutics, the company sponsoring the study.
JOHN LEONARD: This is the first example in which CRISPR-Cas9 is injected the into the bloodstream - in other words, systemic administration, where we use it as a way to reach a tissue that's far away from the site of injection and very specifically edit particular disease-causing genes.
STEIN: And it looks like it worked. Doctors infused billions of microscopic structures, known as nanoparticles, into Doherty and five other volunteers. Each nanoparticle carried the genetic code for the CRISPR gene editor. The nanoparticles made their way to the liver and unleashed an army of CRISPR gene editors, which honed in on the target gene to disable it. Within weeks, the levels of bad protein causing the disease plummeted.
JULIAN GILLMORE: It's amazing. It's - you know, it's phenomenal. It really is exciting.
STEIN: Dr. Julian Gillmore is leading the study at the University College London.
GILLMORE: This has the potential to completely revolutionize the outcome for these patients who have lived with this disease in their family for many generations. You know, it's decimated some families that I've been looking after. So, you know, this is amazing.
STEIN: The patients will have to be followed much longer, and many more patients will have to be treated, to make sure the treatment's as safe as it looks and to determine how much it's helping patients. But, Gillmore says, the approach could help those struck by a far more common version of the disease and provides the first good evidence that CRISPR could be used like this to treat many other, much more common diseases for which taking cells out of the body or directly injecting CRISPR isn't realistic, like heart disease, muscular dystrophy and maybe even brain disorders like Alzheimer's.
FYODOR URNOV: This is a wonderful day for the future of gene editing as a medicine.
STEIN: Fyodor Urnov is a professor of genetics at the University of California, Berkeley.
URNOV: What's striking about these new data is not merely the evidence of safety and efficacy but the avenues or highways it opens up for us in terms of traveling to new destinations in the world of genomic medicine.
STEIN: He says, it's a new world.
URNOV: We as a species are watching this remarkable new show called "Our Gene-Edited Future."
STEIN: For his part, Patrick Doherty is thrilled.
DOHERTY: I feel fantastic. I feel fantastic.
STEIN: He started feeling better within weeks of the treatment.
DOHERTY: I definitely notice an improvement in terms of my mobility, my heart, my moving about. I'm walking again. I do 15,000, 20,000 steps a day - weekend I go up again hill-walking with the dog.
STEIN: Doherty's looking forward to the future again.
DOHERTY: I'm really thankful for it - really thankful for it.
STEIN: And he hopes CRISPR will help some of his friends and relatives avoid the terrible fate his father, uncles and friends suffered.

Q: Verificar se input file esta com arquivo ou não Estou precisando fazer uma validação no campo file, caso o mesmo não tenha anexo me mostre uma mensagem na tela obrigando a anexar, já tentei algumas alternativas e não consegui.

      <input name="arquivo" type="file"  class="form-control-anexo"  input/>

Esse campo só aparece se no assunto eu seleciono a opção Trabalhe Conosco.
No js esta assim:
// Contact form com anexo e sem anexo
var form = $('#main-contact-form');
form.submit(function(event){
    event.preventDefault();
    var data;
    var form_status = $('

');
    data = $("#main-contact-form").serialize();
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: $(this).attr('action'),
        data: new FormData(this),
        processData: false,
        contentType: false,
        beforeSend: function(){
            if ($('#mySelect').val() == 'Trabalhe Conosco')
            {
               if ($('#arquivo').val() == null)
               {
                  alert("É Obrigatório Anexar Seu Currículo!" );
               }
            }
            else
            {
            form.prepend( form_status.html('
 Enviando Mensagem...
').fadeIn() );
            }
        }
    }).done(function(data){
        form_status.html('
Mensagem enviada. O mais breve possível retornaremos o contato.
').delay(9000).fadeOut();
    });
});

A: if ($('#arquivo').files.length === 0) {
   alert("É Obrigatório Anexar Seu Currículo!" )
}

A: Atribua um id e um atributo required ao seu <input type="file"> e verifique se é valido...caso não tenha um arquivo, não será valido.
Podes verificar se a entrada é (ou não) valida usando validity.valid...caso não seja então podes lançar seu alerta e observar um evento de mudança.

var form = $('#main-contact-form');
let file = document.getElementById('fileupload')
form.submit(function(event){
    event.preventDefault()
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: $(this).attr('action'),
        data: new FormData(this),
        processData: false,
        contentType: false,
        beforeSend: function(){
            if ( file.validity.valid ) {
                //... ok [send]
            } else {
                // observe file change
                file.addEventListener('change', function(evt) {
                    if ( evt.target.result.length > 0 ) {
                        //... ok
                    }
                })
            }
        }
    }).done(function(data)  {
        //...
    })
})

<form id="main-contact-form" action="#">

        <input id="fileupload" name="arquivo" type="file" required>

    <button type="submit">Enviar</button>
</form>

Você pode também definir o tipo de arquivo com o attributo accept=""

A: Se você acrescentar o atributo "required" a tag input, o próprio navegador já irá validar a obrigatoriedade do campo:

    <input name="arquivo" type="file" class="form-control-anexo" required>

A: Tem problemas no seu código:
Erro de sintaxe no input:
<input name="arquivo" type="file"  class="form-control-anexo"  input/>
                                                                 ↑

O correto seria:
<input name="arquivo" type="file" class="form-control-anexo">

Você está chamando o campo file por um id que não existe:
if ($('#arquivo').val() == null)
          ↑

Você poderia inserir um id ao campo file, mas não é necessário, porque você pode pegar pelo name:
if ($('input[name="arquivo"]').val() == null)

Mas você ainda pode fazer desta forma:
if(!$('input[name="arquivo"]').val()){

O ! irá retornar true caso o campo file esteja vazio.
Exemplo:

var form = $('#main-contact-form');
form.submit(function(event){
   event.preventDefault();
   if(!$('input[name="arquivo"]').val()){
      alert("É Obrigatório Anexar Seu Currículo!" );
   }else{
      alert("Arquivo anexado!" );
   }
});

<form id="main-contact-form">
<input name="arquivo" type="file" class="form-control-anexo" />

<button>Enviar</button>
</form>

Right in the Feels: Black Son Reunites with Mom at the FIFA World Cup
Here is a happy viral video to get you through the mid-week slump. U.S. Women's Soccer player Jessica McDonald shared her heart-warming reunion with her son during the FIFA World Cup.
Currently in France prepping for their next game, the look on her son's face when he sees his mom is the best thing you will see all day. While we cheer on our players during their games, we cannot forget that there are family members and friends waiting for them to return.
The U.S. Women's Soccer Team is currently undefeated as they face the quarterfinals this week. This is a historic feat that the U.S. Men's Soccer Team has yet to accomplish. In fact, the U.S. Men's Team did not even qualify for their World Cup.
As extraordinarily successful as the women's soccer team has proven to be, they are still extremely under appreciated compared to their male counterparts.
The USWNT currently has a lawsuit against U.S. Soccer for "years of ongoing institutionalized gender discrimination," in which there is a substantial pay difference between the men's and women's teams. The lawsuit follows an initial wage complaint filed in 2015 to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

08.Nov
Auf Wiedersehen plastic bags!
Plastic bags are on the way out. The German federal government voted last week for a ban on all plastic bags in supermarkets, apart from those used for fruit and fresh produce. They are the "epitome of resource waste" said the Environment Minister Schulze, and he's right: there are mass produced objects, made of oil, which are only used for a few minutes, and then discarded, despite their inability to biodegrade. Even the so-called 'environmentally-friendly' plastic bags are damaging, being only partly made up of biodegradable material.
There will be a six-month phase out period of the bags. Asked why fresh produce plastic bags can remain, the ministry answered that phasing them out would lead to more plastic packaging.
In 2015, many German supermarkets voluntarily gave up on offering customers plastic bags. This led to the average annual use of plastic bags per person in Germany going down to 20 in 2018 from 68 in 2016. So there is a demonstrable impact of such measures, and of course it is a positive step in helping the environment.
While the ban addresses resource waste, and also the problems of an unclean and unsafe environment (where animals consume plastic waste, for example), it does not make a significant dent in Germany's approach to energy in general. This is an important distinction, as politicians will use the ban as a way of demonstrating Germany's general commitment to greener energy, even though the two issues are only superficially related.
It's actually rather easy to institute a nationwide ban on such objects, and to claim superiority in the fight against resource waste and climate change. Nevertheless, it does not address underlying structural issues such as reliance on fossil fuels, nor does it seriously put a dent in Germany's carbon footprint.
Germany still relies on coal power in many regions, it still relies on gas piped in from Russia, and it still falls well below the climate goals it set for itself after the Kyoto protocols were agreed upon. Very much like the recent environmental plan announced by Angela Merkel, the plastic bag ban is a welcome step, but it does very little in actual terms to mitigate the climate crisis.
Nevertheless, it is a positive step. It may seem a little late in the day to institute a country-wide ban on plastic bags, given we're so deep into a climate crisis, but it will have an impact on the behaviour of an entire nation. There will be more bans coming in the following years, if the climate crisis is taken seriously: perhaps all plastics will be banned from supermarkets, maybe cars will be banned from city roads, we might even see nationwide bans on the use of central-heating at certain hours of the day. Seeing that the first plastic bags ever made still won't have degraded by the time of publication (and still won't for several more decades), it's worth taking these necessary measures.
The philosopher and cultural critic Slavoj Žižek, among others, has frequently mocked the European sense of commitment to green policies embedded in capitalism: recycling glass and plastic and feeling superior, whilst still being reliant on fossil fuels. It might be a hard pill to swallow, but he is right. We should recognise these bans for what they are: positive steps, but not nearly enough.
We all still have to do more to fight climate change and resource waste.

The Asia Pacific Geoparks Network (APGN) is the regional geopark network of the Global Geoparks Network (GGN) and the UNESCO International Geosciences and Geoparks Programme (UNESCO-IGGP). Its main role is to coordinate the activities of GGN in the UNESCO regions of Asia and the Pacific, to promote networking between global geoparks and geopark professionals in the region and to provide support for sustainable economic development in geopark areas. As of 2020 February, the APGN had 60 institutional members (UNESCO Global Geoparks) in countries. The Pacific region is currently not represented by a global geopark, but there are ongoing geopark projects, just as in other countries of Asia.

Organization
The APGN was founded in 2007 based on the proposal at the 1st Asia Pacific Geoparks Symposium in Langkawi (Malaysia). It was endorsed by GGN in 2008 and became its official regional geopark network in 2013, in compliance with its Rules of Operation.

Governing bodies
The governing bodies of the regional network as an agency are:
 Advisory Committee: comprises the representatives of the founding members of the APGN, who meet annually to make the decisions on memberships and supporting programmes on geoheritage conservation, promotion of geoheritage education and awareness, and monitor the progress of the network
 Coordination Committee: made up of two official nominated representatives from each UNESCO Global Geopark of the network(a geoscientist and a specialist on geoparks development or governance) and a representative from UNESCO. It meets twice a year and overviews the admission of new members to the network and has an advisory role of geopark governance.
 Secretariat: providing the daily management of the network, supported by the Chinese Geoparks Network and the office of GGN in Beijing.

Regional Administrative Members
The personnel recognized as official members of the regional agency are:
 Institutional Members: UNESCO Global Geoparks (UGGp) located in the Asia Pacific Region.
 Individual Members:  professionals of geoconservation, sustainable development, tourism development, and environmental issues of GGN in Asia and the Pacific
 Honorary Members: individuals who have rendered exceptional service to the UNESCO Global Geoparks community or to the GGN from the Asia Pacific region
 National Representatives: nominated by member countries to represent them in the Advisory Committee (AC) and Coordination Committee (CC).
 Cooperating Members: international organizations, institutions, or individuals providing substantial financial or other assistance to GGN/APGN.

List of geoparks in the Asia Pacific region

The region only approximately follows continental guidelines. Turkey and Russia are in the European network. Iran is in the Asia Pacific. Otherwise the country distribution is Australasia.

Map of Asia Pacific geoparks

Asia Pacific geoparks by nation
The member states of the APGN have established national geopark networks. By UNESCO rules a geopark must first apply for membership in the national geopark network and be accredited there before it can apply to membership in the regional geopark network. Having been accredited in the latter they may apply to the global network. This bottom-up method helps to insure that the member nations organize the activities of GGN on a national level first.

Meetings and activities
As a regional geopark network, APGN is the organizer of several workshops and seminars, capacity building activities, common projects, promotional activities, and common publications between the member countries and UNESCO Global Geoparks. Besides the regular meetings of the Advisor and Coordination Committees, the most important events of the network are the biennial symposiums, a place of exchange on research activities and management practices in geoparks.

The Financial Advisor Opportunity:
With the new year comes the opportunity to make changes to boost your job satisfaction and reach your career potential. One way to reach that potential is by setting up a more productive workspace. Although a cubicle is a great way to collaborate and work alongside your colleagues, you may feel that you've earned the opportunity to work in your own space.
At Edward Jones, we agree. Our financial advisors operate from their own branch offices in the neighborhoods in which they serve. This arrangement offers many benefits, including:
You are trusted to set your schedule, build client relationships, provide exceptional service and be the leader of your branch office. You decide how to best service your clients and community.
Collaboration not competition
The branch office environment fosters collaboration between the financial advisor, branch office administrator who provides essential support services and other experts located in the home office. The focus is on serving clients with the full support of resources that Edward Jones provides. The only limitation is your own ambition.
No more monotony. Some days you may find yourself diligently working in the office, while other days you are out in the community getting to know your existing and potential clientele. The workday can be as interesting as you make it.

CONAN UNCONQUERED Gets Nearly 19 Minutes Of Co-Op Gameplay In This Brand-New Video
While Conan Unconquered will be fully playable solo, gamers, who would like to team up to beat the odds in Hyboria's brutal world, will get the chance to play together online and build a shared stronghold...
someguy | 4/30/2019
Filed Under: "Real-Time Strategy"
In Petroglyph Games' Conan Unconquered, you will naturally be able to embark on a solo journey, but nothing will stop you from playing together online in a two-player co-op mode. With your friend (or stranger), you will have a chance to build a shared stronghold while fending off the enemy hordes.
The IGN crew has released nearly 20 minutes of brand-new footage from Conan Unconquered, putting the spotlight on a big chunk of two-player co-op gameplay, with two of the developers behind Conan trying to stop the savage hordes of Hyboria as one, strong unit. According to Petroglyph Games, both players can build structures freely, research upgrades, walls, and structures that are all shared.
As a reminder, Petroglyph Games is an award-winning Norwegian studio responsible for the critically acclaimed Star Wars: Empire at War, Gray Goo, and the upcoming Command & Conquer remasters.
Without further ado, take a look at over 19 minutes of all-new Conan Unconquered footage below:
Conan Unconquered is a strategy game set in the barbaric world of Conan the Barbarian where you must build your stronghold and assemble an unconquerable army to survive the savage hordes of Hyboria. Wave after wave of increasingly more difficult enemies will rush at your gates and you will need to manage resources, research new technologies to advance your defenses, and recruit an ever-growing army if you are to save survive utter destruction.
Conan Unconquered is coming to PC on May 30, 2019.

André Joyal (* 1943 in  Drummondville) ist ein kanadischer Mathematiker. Er befasst sich mit Kategorientheorie und Topostheorie und Anwendung in Algebra, Logik, Kombinatorik, Topologie (Homotopietheorie).

Joyal ist Professor an der Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM).

Er wandte die Kategorientheorie unter anderem auf kombinatorische Spiele nach John Horton Conway und Kombinatorik (Behandlung Erzeugender Funktionen in der Combinatorial Species Theorie) und gilt als Entdecker der nach ihm und Saul Kripke benannten Kripke-Joyal-Semantik.

Joyal entwickelte über mehrere Jahrzehnte die Theorie der 1973 von J. M. Boardman und Rainer Vogt eingeführten Quasi-Kategorien.

Ende der 1970er Jahre entwickelte er eine Verallgemeinerung der Galoistheorie von Alexander Grothendieck mit Myles Tierney, veröffentlicht 1984 in den Memoirs der American Mathematical Society.

Mit Ross Street befasste er sich in den 1980er und 1990er Jahren mit Kategorien mit Tensorprodukten, Zopfgruppen (Braid) und Quantengruppen-Strukturen, motiviert durch Anwendungen in mathematischer Physik.

In den 1980er Jahren entwickelte er eine Homotopietheorie (vom Typ der Modellkategorien von Daniel Quillen) auf simplizialen Mengen (Joyal-Modellstruktur oder Modellstruktur auf Quasikategorien)

Er ist seit 1993 Fellow der Royal Society of Canada. Für 2022 wurde Joyal der Jeffery-Williams-Preis zugesprochen.

Automobiles are expensive investments that require continuous maintenance. Basic tools and proper knowledge allows a car owner to learn about his/her car, maintain the vehicle, and save more money. A car's maintenance becomes more important as it becomes older. Automotive shops can charge an owner sizeable fees for services – some of which may involve simple fixes that could have been done at home, cheap.
Described below are some automotive repair tools that every car owner must have.
1. A Jack and Jack Stands – Vehicle owners must have these in the car at all times. A simple procedure such as tire rotation can be accomplished at home using a jack. A jack and a spare tire are helpful for convenient tire replacement in case of a flat tire. In the garage, a jack allows the car owner to reach certain areas under the chassis for purposes of maintenance and small repairs.
2. An Oil Wrench – The oil change is an important part of car maintenance. To make sure that the automobile is in top shape, this procedure should be done from time to time (frequency depending on mileage and other factors). An oil wrench takes off the oil filter, thus allowing expedient oil change at home.
3. A Funnel – A funnel should be used when refilling the vehicle's oil. This piece of equipment is also useful when other car fluids such as brake fluid, transmission fluid, etc., need to be replenished. The funnel ensures that no wastage or overfill occurs.
4. A Socket Set – For simple engine maintenance, a socket set allows an owner to access spots that could be hard-to-reach. These tools permit the loosening or tightening of a wide range of bolts under the hood. Various extensions in this tool set enable the owner to obtain the angles needed for torque, thus rendering some jobs easier.
5. A Pair of Vise Grips – When some parts are stubborn and will not loosen or tighten properly, a pair of vise grips can come in handy. These tools afford the owner additional leverage to either tighten or loosen a part, such as a nut or bolt.
With proper tools and some knowledge, even a non-professional can address minor car problems and maintain the vehicle without resorting to the help of a mechanic. These simple and relatively inexpensive tools can lead to a longer life span for one's vehicle, as well as larger savings for the car owner.

Importance: Underutilization of hospice occupational therapy may be attributable to a lack of evidence on efficacy.
Objective: To conduct a scoping review of occupational therapy outcome studies to ascertain how efficacy is captured in the literature.
Data Sources: PubMed, CINAHL, MEDLINE, Scopus, Directory of Open Access Journals, Web of Science, OT Search, and Google Scholar.
Study Selection and Data Collection: Search terms: hospice, palliative care, occupational therapy, rehabilitation, outcome measure, and assessment. Inclusion criteria: research studies in English, centered on adult hospice care, published between January 1997 and September 2017, and investigated occupational therapy efficacy with an outcome measure. Exclusion criteria: systematic reviews, participants not at terminal disease end stages, or intervention program reviews lacking differentiated occupational therapy outcomes.
Findings: Seven articles met the inclusion criteria. Findings include frequent use of noncontrolled, quasi-experimental, prospective research designs; a focus on occupational performance; and no generally accepted hospice occupational therapy outcome measure.
Conclusion and Relevance: Outcome measures of participation in end-of-life occupations and environmental influences on occupational engagement are needed to effectively support occupational therapy practice and research with people who are terminally ill.
What This Article Adds: Occupational therapy in end-of-life care is growing in complexity yet remains low in utilization. This review adds insights into current practice and future research foci for the profession.

UPDATE 12/1/2021
On Tuesday, November 23, 2021, James Hemenes presented POSAC's final recommendations to the Hays County Commissioners Court. The proposed projects are separated by the submission session to avoid any confusion. In total, there are 14 proposed projects from the Summer 2020 ("Round 1") submission session due to significant changes in scope to the City of Kyle project proposal. The City of Kyle's updated project proposals were included in the Summer 2021 ("Round 2") submission session.
Per the Round 2 project proposals, twenty-three out of the twenty-five submitted projects have been recommended for potential funding. The final presentation to Commissioners Court and the list(s) of recommended projects, including the requested funding amount, can be viewed by clicking the links below.

Final POSAC Presentation November 23, 2021
A new website has been created for the Parks Bond Program and more information is coming soon!

About POSAC
The Hays County Parks and Open Space Advisory Commission (POSAC) was established in February of 2020 by the Hays County Commissioners Court (the "Court"). The role of the Commission in 2020 was to establish a process to study the viability and community interest for a pursuing a potential park, open space, and conservation bond program and to solicit recommendations to the Hays County Commissioners and County Judge. The result of these efforts was Proposition A, commonly referred to as the Hays County 2020 Parks and Open Space Bond, included on the ballot during the November 3, 2020 voting session.
After the bond was approved by voters with a 70 percent margin, the Hays County Commissioners Court restarted POSAC. This advisory commission is charged with slightly different roles and responsibilities, attributed to the Court's intent on performing a second call for projects.
Please read the 2021 POSAC Charter, approved in Commissioners' Court on Tuesday, April 27, 2021 to review these changes. POSAC also amended their 2021 POSAC Bylaws during the April 29, 2021 meeting. The 2020 POSAC Bylaws are also available to the public to view the amendments if they so choose.
POSAC members will soon begin conducting in-depth re-evaluations of proposed projects submitted prior to November 2020 and all project proposals included with Public Information Form (PIF) submissions provided by the announced deadline.
Project proposals will be evaluated per the Scoring Sheet created by POSAC in 2020, created to ensure the evaluation process and score each project receives, was done so by POSAC members determining the degree to which each project meets goals and priorities identified within the Hays County 2012 Parks, Open Spaces, and Natural Areas Master Plan (the "Master Plan").
Once the projects have received their final scores, they will be tiered according to the Master Plan's priorities and ranked to reflect the level of importance of those priorities. These The final funding recommendations this advisory commission will present to Court will have been determined by the above mentioned criteria, with emphasis on whether or not public access is offered, the project sponsor's identified commitment to provide matching funds towards their project's funding request, and projects that can be completed within a 5-year timeframe.
Hays County 2020 Proposition A
Hays County placed Proposition A on the November 2020 ballot, which passed successfully with 70 percent voters' approval. This proposition called for the issuance of $75,000,000 in general bonds, along with other potential funding mechanisms, to establish parks, open spaces, conservation lands, and other recreational opportunities. As part of the $75 million authorized by voters, the County has the potential opportunity to utilize $30 million of Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) Clean State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) monies for the purpose of land acquisition on properties that could provide nonpoint source pollution mitigation and prevention, while still functioning as a low-impact recreational park or open space.
The current and anticipated project opportunities to be established by the above funding sources range from sports fields and sports complexes, municipal parks, multipurpose facilities, connective multi-purpose trails, river access and recreation, open spaces, skate parks, nature centers, dog parks, and conservation lands to protect sensitive natural resources and endangered species habitat.
Activities eligible for funding through Proposition A monies include but are not limited to the following activities related to public park spaces:
Constructing;
Improving;
Renovations;
Equipping;
Acquiring land and interest in land;
Buildings;
Facilities for park and recreational purposes;
Constructing and improving existing parks;
Acquiring conservation easements on land for any authorized purposes.
Establishing conservation easements to ensure its availability for recreational, or open-space use, or to protect wildlife habitat and water quality of creeks, rivers and springs protect natural resources and provides potential opportunities to minimize flood risks and improving flood safety by preventing the development of that property. Conservation land also has the opportunity to improve connectivity through the acquisition of adjacent land, thus providing opportunities for construction and improvement of trails to other connecting trails.
POSAC (2021) Meetings
The next POSAC meeting is scheduled for November 16 at 7:30 p.m. The meeting will be conducted virtually via Zoom and open to the public. An opportunity for public comments will take place during the first 10 minutes of the meeting. See the agenda here.

Mark Kennedy, Hays County resident and County's Legal Counsel.
Alexandra Thompson, Hays County resident and the County's Natural Resources Coordinator.
Projects submitted to Hays County should be consistent with the goals and priorities set forth in the 2012 Hays County Parks, Open Space and Natural Areas Master Plan. Applicants are highly encouraged to review the Master Plan and understand how your project correlates and aligns with the goals and priorities identified within the 2012 Master Plan. Hays County currently has 15 recommended projects by the Parks and Open Space Advisory Commission (POSAC) formed in 2020, prior to the approval of Proposition A by Hays County voters. Additional project submissions are to be expected. This will require POSAC appointed members to conduct in-depth re-evaluation of the above mentioned recommended projects when deemed appropriate, ensure the proposed projects include public access, reflect the identified goals and priorities within the Hays County 2012 Master Plan, and whether or not the sponsor requesting funding has the ability to, or has committed to, allocating matching funds towards their proposed project.
The categorical language of Proposition A is meant to address four different, but often overlapping, project types:
Urban Parks – which includes but is not limited to recreational facilities, courts, or fields, assembly areas for recreation and/or education, pocket parks, and the like;
Conservation and Open Space – this pertains to acquiring acreage to protect and conserve wildlife corridors; to protect rare, threatened and endangered species habitat; and protecting historical and cultural landscapes;
Connectivity – which includes but is not limited to hiking and biking trails, bridges over waterways, and connection to existing trail systems;
Water Quality Protection and Flood Mitigation –This includes but is not limited to investment in water quality and water quantity of our aquifers via the establishment of conserved open spaces with limited, passive public access and conservation and improvement of park areas that also contribute (or, if developed, would contribute) to flooding of populated areas or the degradation of existing waterways within Hays County. A secondary benefit is conservation and improvement of areas that contribute (or, if developed, would contribute) to flooding of populated areas or the degradation of existing waterways within Hays County. This category of project will also qualify as one of the other categories of parkland and will feature some form of public access.
Any project may meet the goals of one or more of these categories, depending on the unique characteristics of that particular project.
♦ The deadline for project proposals and PIF submissions has passed. Hays County will not accept or review any new proposals or funding requests at this time. ♦
For all new project proposals, please submit them to the Hays County Natural Resources Coordinator, Alexandra Thompson, by email at Alexandra.thompson@co.hays.tx.us.
Use the two forms below to assist with preparing your project proposal. The Project Information Form (PIF) will be useful for the POSAC members when it comes time to evaluate and rank the projects for funding and timeline recommendations. Please prepare a PowerPoint or other form of presentation to serve as the project proposal with detailed information about the property, the intended use, if any quotes or master plans have been established as part of the planning process, etc.
If your project does not currently include or have all the information necessary to include in a master plan, the management firm will assist with those details at a later time, so please submit your project even if it is still in the beginning phases of the planning process.
Project Information Form (PIF)
POSAC Evaluation Sheet
Proposal Submission Deadlines
Entities wishing to submit a project proposal to potentially receive funding from the 2020 Parks & Open Space Bond will have until Friday, July 30, 2021 to submit their Project Information Form (PIF) via email to the Hays County Natural Resources Coordinator at Alexandra.thompson@co.hays.tx.us. Please keep in mind that the PIF is meant to serve as a project summary form and is a useful tool for POSAC when it comes time to rank the project. The PIF is not meant to serve as the project proposal, which should be a separate document with detailed project information and include any supplemental information as appendices. If the submitting party's final proposal, supplemental material, GIS shapefiles, CAD files, KMZ files, and POSAC presentation are complete at the time the submitting party submits their PIF, they are more than welcome to turn all materials in at the same time.
The official and final project proposal should be 3-5 pages at a minimum, not including the supplemental material as appendices, and will need to be submitted to the Hays County Natural Resources Coordinator no later than 5 business days before the submitting party is scheduled to conduct their project presentation to POSAC.
Supplemental material in this context refers to the following, if such material is currently available:
i. Land surveys and appraisals,
ii. Engineering reports by licensed professional engineers (PEs), Environmental impact assessments, biological surveys conducted by a U.S. Fish & Wildlife permitted wildlife biologist, geological assessments performed by licensed professional geoscientists (PGs),
iii. Financial budgeting and any quotes received for past of currently planned work related to the project,
iv. Construction plans,
v. Etc.

XXXTENTACION - 17
17 is the debut studio album by American rapper and singer XXXTentacion. It was released on August 25, 2017, by Bad Vibes Forever and Empire Distribution. With a total length of just under 22 minutes, the album is barely an LP, and does not feature a song longer than three minutes, which is considered unconventional for a studio album. The album was supported by the lead single "Revenge", and is XXXTentacion's second commercial record, following the compilation mixtape of the same name (2017). 17 includes a sole appearance from Trippie Redd and heavy sampling of Shiloh Dynasty, and production was handled by XXXTentacion, among others. The album is built on acoustic and piano-driven songs, rather than the "turn-up" style and distortion bass sounds that was popular in XXXTentacion's native Florida scene. It experiments with a variety of genres, such as emo, lo-fi, indie rock, alternative R&B and grunge, while the lyrics are based around themes such as suicide, failed relationships, and infidelity.[6] XXXTentacion stated that the album's target audience is people who suffer with depression, and that the album is also an "entry" into his mind. The album produced the singles "Jocelyn Flores", and "Fuck Love". "Jocelyn Flores", "Revenge", "Everybody Dies in Their Nightmares", "Depression & Obsession", "Save Me" and "Carry On" all debuted on the Billboard Hot 100. "Jocelyn Flores", "Everybody Dies in Their Nightmares" and "Fuck Love" also debuted in the top 100 of the UK Singles Chart.

2007 mini cooper s convertible blue book. 2007 Mini Cooper Blue Book for Sale 2019-01-11
Friday, January 11, 2019 5:17:25 PM Ethan
It's light, quick, and provides reasonably good feedback. The styling of the car, like that of the , is a retro design that is deliberately reminiscent of the original Mini. It is marketed as a 5-door version of the new 3rd generation Hatch. The retro styling retains other classic Mini touches such as contrasting roof colours, optional , optional rally lights, and black trim around the wheel arches and rocker panels that mimic the wide wheel flares found on many classic Minis. I honestly felt unsafe driving the car. I fully believe he could have sent a money order minus the charge and a form that I would have gladly signed and faxed back to him.
Used 2007 MINI Cooper S Convertible For Sale
Dennoch hat sich der neue Mini eine ordentliche Portion jugendlichen Charme bewahrt. Once 2 of my mechanics advised that the I4 had numerous engine problems, I called and asked him to send me a refund, and he refused, saying I would have to come back in person and sign off in order to get my money back. Exterior Features Front Fog Lamps Body-color bumpers Body-color pwr mirrors Body-color tailgate handle Chrome. The electrically-assisted power steering provides excellent road feel, and the body and suspension provide controlled response in hard cornering. You won't find fur or a tail, but rather a low, squat stance that helps these diminutive British cars cling to the road.
2007 MINI Cooper S Models, Trims, Information, and Details
This was also when the new convertible was introduced; it was never available with the pre-facelift design. Because if it' s not, we won't sell. Boot volume has been increased by more than 30% to 211 litres. Also available are Sport, Cold Weather and high-end Audio Packages. Only the front portion of the sunroof opens but, with the front section in the vent position, the rear section also tilts up to let rear-seat passengers enjoy the breeze. The all-new 2014 Mini Cooper Hardtop comes with the first 3-cylinder engine used in a Mini, while 2014 Cooper S Hardtop models have a new, more powerful 2. The build quality is excellent and the whole feel of the car is very up-market - it is a true value.
Couple the ride's newfound suppleness with the turbo's pulling power, and the car can assault sweeping turns at over 130 mph with complete confidence. The headlights are moved slightly outward and are in-unit with the directional indicators. A wide range of exterior colors are available, including the choice of black, white or body-color roof paint. It still looks compact, cute, and athletic, but now with a slightly more distinctive face. The car was used for events such as the , as well as events, and championships in Britain, Italy and Switzerland.
Verdict: 2007 Mini Cooper S
The boot of the new car has an additional 10 litres 2. Some pined for a manual transmission, while others warmed quickly to the six-speed automatic with paddle shifters and a sport mode designed to hold the revs longer. Visibility is excellent in all directions. I must admit I love this little car. And with their premium nature comes premium pricing above rivals like the Ford Fiesta, Fiat 500, Chevrolet Sonic, Mazda2, Honda Fit and Hyundai Veloster. The Cooper and the Cooper S have 1.
Mini Cooper S Blue Book Value for Sale
My experience over two months for highway driving averages a little less: about 41 mpg. Mini provides free maintenance for up to three years or 36,000 miles, so Spiering was able to keep the credit card in her wallet. The high-back bucket seats and telescopic steering wheel adjust easily, and there's plenty of head- and legroom for drivers six-foot-three-inches and taller. The bullet proof transmission has a geer for every demanding corner and straight-away. The build quality is excellent and the whole feel of the car is very up-market - it is a true value. The car is fun to drive extreamly reliable. For example, the reverse lights would come on while braking.
The old classic Mini was never this good! Those riding in the front seats enjoy excellent head and legroom. It works in conjunction with the dynamic stability control and activates the brake system so it holds you momentarily in place on a hill, thus preventing the car from rolling back when the clutch is first released. Mine was under twenty grand, with nothing special except the heated seats and auto box. In the middle and extremely satisfying are the S models with engines tuned to make 181 horsepower. However, rear passengers may feel cramped with tight shoulder space and limited legroom. The Cooper and the Cooper S have 1.
Plans for an all-new supermini to replace the Metro in the mid 1990s were shelved when Rover was sold to in January 1994, with the existing Metro model gaining a restyle and a new designation. Peak torque is available at only 1600 rpm, resulting in quick and worry-free merging or passing maneuvers. He picked up an empty beer can, cut it in half, stripped off the paint, polished the metal, and glued it to the back of the car. Its only drawback was the tradeoff of good fuel economy for the performance aspect I so much enjoyed. There are numerous styling and badging differences between the models, including the Cooper S having a distinctive cut into the. Welcome to West Ridge Auto Sales! On her way back, in Arizona, the Mini's service light finally came on just after the 17,000-mile mark, and Spiering paid a visit to North Scottsdale Mini for the Cooper S's first service. Mine was under twenty grand, with nothing special except the heated seats and auto box.


Most games in round 1 had a large rating difference so were straightforward wins for the stronger player.
Round 2 possible draw is at the bottom of this post.
Xinyang Liu vs Gordon Morrell – White played an unusual c3 then Na3->c2 line in the Caro-Kann to defend d4 and get a pawn chain. He then completed blocked all lines with pawn chains and Black settled for a draw.
Tim Ha vs Abraham Deng – Black got a better position but settled for a draw.
Olivia Dong returns to chess after a break. She is top rated in the grade.
