Thomas Rickman
British architect
Thomas Rickman, (born June 8, 1776, Maidenhead, Berkshire, Eng.—died Jan. 4, 1841, Birmingham), Gothic Revival architect, whose book An Attempt to Discriminate the Styles of English Architecture (1817) established the classification of English medieval architecture and the use of such terms as decorated and perpendicular Gothic.
Originally a pharmacist's assistant, doctor, and clerk, Rickman became an architect through his interest in sketching and studying medieval buildings. This self-taught architect designed many churches and country houses based on English Gothic architecture, especially of the perpendicular period. His most famous work, however, is the New Court of St. John's College, Cambridge (1826–31), which he built in collaboration with Henry Hutchinson. Rickman's style shows more knowledge of the outward form of Gothic architecture than real acquaintance with or concern for its spirit.

Indian researchers use graphene sieves to turn seawater into drinking water
by Prasad RavindranathPosted on April 3, 2017 April 4, 2017
(From left) Dr. Vasu Siddeswara Kalangi, Jijo Abraham and Prof. Rahul Nair produced molecular sieves by using two techniques to prevent graphene oxide membranes from swelling when in contact with water.
Producing potable water through desalination may become more efficient and less energy intensive if researchers at the University of Manchester are able to successfully use graphene oxide (GO) membranes to filter common salts present in seawater on a commercial scale. When the spacing between two successive graphene oxide sheets was nearly 10 Å (1 angstrom is 0.1 nanometre), more than 97% of table salt (NaCl) was removed from seawater. The removal of salts will be even better when the spacing between two successive sheets is reduced to below 8 Å.
The use of grapene oxide as a molecular sieve to filter common salts from seawater while allowing water to pass through it is already known. But grapene oxide membranes have a tendency to slightly swell when immersed in water and this results in increased spacing between successive sheets (akin to increasing the pore size of a sieve). The increased spacing allows smaller salts to flow through the membrane without being filtered.
A team led by Prof. Rahul Raveendran Nair from the National Graphene Institute, University of Manchester has addressed this problem by developing graphene oxide membranes that do not swell when immersed in water and are able to sieve common salts. In a paper published on April 3 in the journal Nature Nanotechnology, the researchers were able to achieve a desirable interlayer spacing by storing the membranes in high humidity and then physically restraining the membranes from swelling by embedding them in epoxy. "The grapene oxide sheets adjust their interlayer spacing according to the humidity of the air (hygro-responsive property)," Prof. Nair says in an email. Embedding the membranes in epoxy did not alter the rate at which water permeated through the membranes.
Alternative technique
The researchers also tried an alternative technique of adding graphene flakes to graphene oxide to prevent the membranes from swelling. "Though the epoxy coating gives better control over swelling, large area membrane fabrication may be difficult and time-consuming. Producing scalable membranes for desalination application will be possible by adding graphene flakes to graphene oxide instead," he says.
The higher the ion charge, the stronger it attracts water molecules. So ions with higher free energies have water molecules that are strongly bound. The salt ions with water molecules strongly bound have larger diameter and experience larger barriers to enter the tiny space between the sheets. On the other hand, water molecules have weak hydrogen bonding and need very little energy to strip the surrounding water from the water molecules before entering the tiny space between the graphene oxide layers. So water is able to pass through the membrane more easily.
Making use of energy barriers
"Both KCl and NaCl have similar energy barriers and the [rejection] increases with decreasing spacing. Similar to the case of KCl, even the channel with a spacing of 10 Å has a finite energy barrier, but that barrier increases nearly three fold when the spacing is reduced to below 8 Å," Prof. Nair says.
In the case of graphene oxide membranes that have graphene flakes (Gr) added to it, the ion permeation rate was suppressed by two orders of magnitude compared with graphane oxide membranes embedded in epoxy. As a result, salt rejection was as high as 97% in the case of Go-Gr membranes when the spacing was nearly 10 Å. There was about 20% reduction in water permeation rate across the membranes.
Treating wastewater
The graphene oxide-graphene flakes membranes are not mechanically strong and are ill-suited for conventional reverse osmosis process. Instead, they can be used for treating wastewater using forward osmosis (and where hydraulic force is not applied).
"Instead of hydraulic pressure, naturally occurring osmotic pressure due to the concentration gradient of salt/molecular solution present on both sides of the membrane is used to drive water molecules across a membrane," he says. "If we separate wastewater (something needs to be filtered) and sugar solution by using a membrane, then, water from the wastewater solution will flow towards the sugar solution if the concentration of sugar solution is higher than the wastewater solution. This process enables the dilution of sugar solution by pulling the pure water from the wastewater solution to the sugar solution. This technology can be used to separate clean water from the wastewater including sea water. Currently, forward osmosis is mainly using as a pre-treatment to RO process to reduce the energy consumption."
Preliminary experiments by the team found clogging of the membranes with salt was negligible and the membrane can be recovered to the original state by a simple washing process. They do not anticipate any significant fouling due to the inertness of graphene surface. More studies are needed before the membranes can be commercialised.

Q: Suggestions for building and managing complex functions in Excel Far too often, I've got a formula that wraps functions inside of functions inside of functions, and when some new condition requires that I wrap another function around it, I often find myself completely losing track of which parentheses go where, which function applies to which set of parameters and usually find myself debugging a statement for a half hour after my modification produces unexpected results.
What I've BEEN doing is to cut the function into its individual parts in a column...each row representing a single function, and when I'm satisfied that end result is what it needs to be, I copy each piece back into it's respective spot in the preceding cell until I have a completed, and hopefully working, function.
CONSIDER:
         =IF((ISERROR((VLOOKUP(D2,$A$2:$A9,1,0))),(IF((D2=(VLOOKUP(D2,$A$2:$A$9,1,0))),0,D2)),E2)
0        =IF((ISERROR((VLOOKUP(D2,$A$2:$A9,1,0))),L17,E2)
TRUE     =ISERROR((VLOOKUP(D2,$A$2:$A9,1,0))
0        =IF((D2=L18),0,D2)
the      =VLOOKUP(D2,$A$2:$A$9,1,0)

It'd be great to be able to document inline or have something similar to a VBA popup ion which to edit formulae, but since that doesn't exist, I'd be interested to know what other techniques for effectively building complex functions you've found helpful. Thoughts?

A: Normally, I split formulas over multiple columns - each column then contains a part of the formula. I never stuck them into a single cell - while "cleaner" they are impossible to debug.
If the columns are to much, I build a "admin" sheet, which can be hidden.
I dislike the excel formula editor in general - while I really like the power of the formulas, the editor is a pain to use.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) � Chris Paul jumped at the chance to express his love for New Orleans during his annual youth basketball camp yesterday.
Paul said his meeting with Hornets General Manager Dell Demps, Coach Monty Williams and team President Hugh Weber on Monday �went really well.� He added that he was �excited� by Williams� approach to coaching.
Paul even went so far as to say he�s �never been able to envision� continuing his NBA career anywhere but New Orleans, the city where he became an NBA All-Star, the face of his franchise and one of the most popular figures in the community.
�There will be a time,� Paul said, trying to repeatedly to turn the focus of his comments back to his work in the community and his camp at Tulane University.
However, in recent weeks, Paul has said he wants to play for a team that can compete for a title right away and would welcome a trade if the Hornets were unable to make significant improvements this offseason.
With Paul under contract, the NBA has sent a memo to all owners and general managers reminding them of tampering restrictions and specifically warned them about illegal contact with Paul, according to a person familiar with the document. The memo points out that teams interested in Paul must have approval from the Hornets before talking to Paul or his representatives. Any team found in violation faces up to a $5 million fine, the person told The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because the memo is confidential.
Meanwhile, Demps sought to make it clear that the team is not interested in entertaining trade offers for Paul and that he hoped any skepticism of the team�s ability to appease its star guard would subside over time.
Williams, meanwhile, defended Paul�s stance on wanting to play for a winner and brushed aside the notion that the Hornets could wind up stuck with a disgruntled superstar if they refuse to entertain any trade offers for him.
�That�s not in his nature,� Williams said.

The need to adapt to change – in particular the way properties are valued.
No one size fits all – whether you are an occupier, investor or operator.
The difficulty of predicting the future of the workplace in an age of fast-changing technology.
The language in the market, meanwhile, has evolved. Office space has become 'workspace', and tenants are 'customers'.
The valuation matrix needs to change; it is still biased towards a long lease to the institutional investor.
Switch your mindset as to what strength of covenant looks like. For example, 19 years ago Google would not have been seen as having strength of covenant.
Take care of all your customers' employees; not just the decision makers. The workspace market is a people business.
Keep up with trends, as trends "change hearts". All trends – property, business, technology, environmental, social and consumer.
Change your business model to allow your customers' business to thrive.
A full understanding of your customers' needs requires extra resources – both money and people.
With the advance of AI and automation, space will increasingly be about providing employees with an environment to be creative and insightful.
A creative working environment requires high capital expenditure, to bring a fresh, on-trend look and feel.
It's all about offering a high level of service and a flexible space – a space that creates a feeling of community and wellbeing.
What else does the customer need? Privacy and confidentiality? Room to express their corporate identity?
Ask yourself, how can I use building performance data for the benefit of my customer's business? And for my business?
As the market grows, co-working operators are specialising. For example, with the offer of women-only workspaces.
The regions accounted for a quarter of co-working space take-up in the UK last year, according to CoStar.
Apart from London, the big five markets for 2018 were Leeds, Manchester, Berkshire/North Hampshire, Birmingham and Glasgow.
Do I partner with a co-working operator or do I do it myself?
Consider setting up a partnership with a co-working operator. They have the experience and the reputation.
If you decide that you have the scale to set up your own operator team, look at transferring in-house skills and expertise, such as from residential and hospitality teams.
Remember, no one size fits all.

I remember nuts and bolts from my childhood! Thanks for the memories and have a great SITS day!
This looks yummy! And I love liquid smoke. It comes in handy for lots of stuff!
Love this! My mom used to make this every holiday season (with a little different method). I might have to bring back the tradition this year!
Great use of flavorings–I'll have to come up with a gluten-free version. I love these types of mixes!
I remember these from when I was in high school. Nice blast from the past. I may try it at my next party.
Oh man I remember this stuff from when I was a kid. I'm going to have to make it this year. Happy SITS day!
I know just what you mean! Once you taste it, it become one of those very strong taste memories.
P.S. I checked your Family Dinner post and really enjoyed it (said the older mom whose kids can all tie their own shoes). Another truth: family dinners never look like the picture in your head. And that's OK. Great family memories rarely look like the picture.
I've never seen Chex mix made in a paper bag…interesting! Chex mix is one of my all-time fav recipes. My mom (and every other mother in my hometown) made Chex mix for holiday festivities. That time of year was definitely a feast for the snack!
Thank you for stopping in! The paper bag was more of an end-solution: I didn't have a pan big enough to put a whole batch in, and the bag idea worked great, so I just kept doing it.
My mother used to make something just like this when I was a kid! Ha. She called it Trash. We were just talking about it the other day. I'm not sure of everything she used to make it, but I don't think it was much different from yours. Takes me back. AHHH. Visiting from SITS!
Looks so yummy!! Pinned this one!
My mother in law makes this and I just love it!
I'm finding that a lot of Moms made this before ready-made Chex mixes hit the scene. I think it's time to revive the tradition!
I didn't grow up with Chex Mix so I never understood the appeal until I got older, but I always saw it in all of the party planning articles I'd peruse. It's so tasty, and I love that you used cashews instead of peanuts in your recipe! What a great gift to package up and give during the holidays, too.
WHAT!!!? That mouse is the cutest thing I have ever seen!!!
This sounds amazing! I definitely love a good amount of worcestershire sauce in my chex mix – Love keeping hand me down recipes alive!
I remember this from my youth. My great aunt introduced me to it, she baked it in a large Nesco turkey roaster. and it was called Texas Trash. it did not have liquid smoke but it did have a generous helping of chili powder. I wish i had her original recipe but alas it has been lost.
Your little mousie in the pics is THE BEST thing about my week so far!
So glad he made you happy today!


Relax? Relax! You're having a baby.
It should come as no surprise that the period of time from conception through a baby's first 18 months of life is critical to proper brain development – especially the neural pathways responsible for emotional self-regulation and attention control. The science isn't definitive yet, but our increasingly frenzied and stressful culture may very well be a significant factor in today's prevalence of ADD, ADHD, and other learning disabilities.
Research shows that expectant mothers who have a significantly stressful event or chronic levels of high stress during their pregnancy are much more likely to have a premature or low weight baby. A study published in the September – October 2009 issue of Psychosomatic Medicine found a link between expectant mothers with high cortisol levels (a stress related hormone) and lower weight babies. The indication from all of this research is quite clear: like it or not the effects of stress on mom are being passed along to her unborn baby.
While cortisol plays an important role in our bodies response to stress, it is just one side of the equation. A healthy nervous system responds quickly to stress: Fight or flight. Yet once the stressor or danger has passed, a healthy, balanced nervous system will quickly return the body to a relaxed state. Unfortunately, in our current high-stress culture, the body's stress response is activated so often that the body doesn't always have a chance to return to normal, resulting in a state of chronic stress.
Before you get stressed about all this stress, take a breath and read on. There's plenty we can do to help you reduce the effects of stress during (or even before) your pregnancy and for the rest of your life.
For years, chiropractic care has helped reduce the effects of stress on peoples' health. Today, however, we are able to provide far more effective care than just a few short years ago. Our office offers a state-of-the art exam called a Stress Response Evaluation. This exam measures your nervous system in three different states: a relaxed baseline reading, under stress, and during recovery. This information will show us a great deal about your nervous system balance : over aroused, under aroused, balanced, unstable, or exhausted. From this information we will make recommendations on how best to proceed with your care.
to it – is often half the battle. While reviewing your Stress Response Evaluation you will be able to see how your nervous system responded to stress – as well as how it recovered. Even though the information is invaluable for the doctor, this process alone is enlightening for many of our patients. Being able to actually watch your reaction on screen can be powerful. This isn't about how you feel you reacted to stress. This is exactly how you reacted.
For the record, most patients' perceived stress is much different than their actual stress.
In certain cases, your doctor may feel that individual feedback sessions may be warranted depending on the results of the test. These are noninvasive sessions to help you learn to control your nervous system.
The benefits of a stress free pregnancy are clear – for both mom and child. Take a moment to speak with us about what we can do to help you at this important time in your life. We will provide a safety net of care, support, education, and technology to make your pregnancy as stress free as possible.

Q: sphero sprk+ isn't discoverable in macbook pro bluetooth I'm trying to connect to Sphero Sprk+ device with gobot.io, like this example: https://gobot.io/documentation/platforms/sprkplus/
The code cannot connect to the device, so I checked in the visible bluetooth devices from Bluetooth Preferences in MacBook, and Sphero isn't listed there.
Sphero is visible from android devices, and is visible from the MacBook via Sphero EDU application, but not directly from the bluetooth console.
What do I miss?
Thanks

A: SPRK+ communicates via BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). BLE comes with concept of 'profiles'. There are public (documented, well-known, standard) profiles, like SPP (serial port profile), A2DP (audio profile), etc. If the device supports these profiles, you can see it in system BT preferences.
However, SPRK+ (Sphero) features it's own private communication profile, not known to Apple nor Google.
That's why the EDU application can 'see' the  device, but you cannot find it in BT preferences.

Microbiota therapy is gaining acceptance for preventing recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (CDI).
RBX2660 is a microbiota-based drug derived from healthy human donors using a standardized, quality-controlled manufacturing process.
One dose of RBX2660 was demonstrated to be safe and effective for preventing rCDI in a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study (PUNCH CD 2; reported by Dubberke et al., ID Week, Oct 2016).
Recent microbiota-based trials suggested suggested that outcomes may correlate with patient demographics.
Key demographics of subjects treated in the PUNCH CD 2 trial were evaluated for impact on treatment.
A total of 133 patients with recurrent CDI were enrolled in the PUNCH CD 2 clinical trial at 21 sites in the USA and Canada (Trial #: NCT02299570).
Patients were randomized to receive: 2 doses of RBX2660 (Group A); 2 doses of placebo (Group B); or 1 dose of RBX2660 followed by 1 dose of placebo (Group C).
Therapies were administered via enema 7 days apart.
The first blinded treatment dose was administered 24-48 hours after completion of antibiotic treatment.
Success was defined as the absence of C. difficile-associated diarrhea at 8 weeks following completion of the last blinded treatment.
Demographic information was collected at the time of enrollment, with success and failure designations applied after the study blind was lifted.
Logistic regression was used to determine whether outcomes correlated with specific demographic characteristics.
RBX2660
One dose of RBX2660 contains 50 g of human stool per 150 mL of suspension in a single-dose ready-to-use enema bag.
Stored frozen at ≤−80°C at the manufacturer and shipped frozen to the site as needed in a temperature-controlled container.
Manufactured using standardized, quality-controlled processes with guaranteed minimum quantity of microbes.
Logistic regression analysis was conducted with data from 127 patients treated in the blinded phase of the PUNCH CD 2 trial.
(See tables in poster)
The efficacy outcome of RBX2660 did not depend on sex, age, region of the clinical trial center, or the antibiotic regimen completed prior to RBX2660 treatment.
The broad benefit of RBX2660 among patient demographics underscores its merit for further clinical evaluation for preventing rCDI.


One competitor from each team starts the match; eliminations may occur by pin fall, submission or throwing a competitor over the top rope where both feet must hit the floor. After short 90 second periods another competitor will join the match from isolation until all competitors are in the ring, then the match turns into a sudden death match which may be won by pin fall or submission anywhere in the building.

Q: Run bash script from php I want to run a shell script within a php webpage to check some processes running on my system (Ubuntu 12.04). Googleing I've found about shell_exec() but I can't manage to run the script when loading php.
This is the php code I use.
$output = shell_exec('./dirlist.bash');
echo "
$output
";

and the piece of html I get

Also tried $output = shell_exec('sudo -u www-data ./dirlist.bash');
dirlist.bash does ls -l     (just for testing script and shell_exec)
I think it is not a permission problem. Running directory grants write and execute privileges for all users (I should be careful here).
drwxrwxrwx  4 meteo meteo 4096 mar 11 15:20 RAMS

User www-data has been added to sudoers file in case it was needed
www-data ALL = (meteo) NOPASSWD: /home/meteo/www/RAMS/dirlist.bash

Thanks in advance

A: You probably need to chdir to the correct directory before calling the script. This way you can ensure what directory your script is "in" before calling the shell command.
$old_path = getcwd();
chdir('/my/path/');
$output = shell_exec('./script.sh var1 var2');
chdir($old_path);
echo "
$output
";

Texas Astronomers Discover an Ancient Solar System
Published February 3, 2015 at 7:54 AM CST
Kepler-444 hosts 5 earth-sized planets. The planetary system is over two times as old as our solar system. (Credit: Tiago Campante/Peter Divine.)
It's been a busy start to the new year for astronomers at the McDonald Observatory near Fort Davis.
In January, researchers announced their discovery of what they describe as a black hole "choking" on a star, and the observatory has also helped spot an ancient solar system that has changed what astronomers thought about when the first planets formed in the universe.
William Cochran is a professor of astronomy at the University of Texas at Austin, which operates the McDonald Observatory. He and his colleagues used the Kepler spacecraft, a telescope orbiting the sun that searches for planetary systems in our galaxy.
What Kepler looks for is a very slight dimming of light from stars; a sign that a planet has passed directly between it and the star. Then, instruments at McDonald Observatory analyze some of these stars, to find out how big and bright they are, and whether they contain the necessary elements to form planets.
Since its launch in 2009, Kepler has found more than one thousand confirmed planetary systems, but the solar system that Dr. Cochran and his colleagues found stands out.
"The really remarkable thing about this planetary system is that it is very very old. It is about 11.2 billion years old. For a point of reference, our sun and earth are both about 4.5 billions years old," says Cochran.
"So this thing is about two and a half times as old as our solar system. Right now, this is the oldest planetary system that we know of. And what it tells us is that planetary systems started forming very very early in the history of our galaxy and thus in the history of the universe"
The system is about 120 light years away from Earth,. There are 5 earth-sized planets orbiting a star they named Kepler-444.
The planets are all very close to the star, orbiting it in 10 days or less - not the ideal conditions for life to emerge.
"These planets are much too close to the star, and therefore much too hot to be habitable," explains Cochran.
But that doesn't mean there aren't habitable planets in the Kepler-444 system. Cochran says there may be more planets orbiting Kepler-444 that just haven't been detected.
It's possible that liquid water could exist on the surface of these planet. If so, they could harbor ancient life forms.
"We believe that on earth, life got started just as soon as it possibly could have," says Cochran. "If the same thing happened on possible habitable planets in this system, then that tells us that life got started very early in the history of the universe."
Even if Kepler-444 isn't harboring any life-sustaining planets, the discovery shows there are likely more ancient solar systems in our galaxy. This means it's possible that somewhere out there, there may be life that is 6 billion years older than anything here on Earth.

On June 29, 2017, the FDA authorized the marketing of ClearLLab Reagents (from Beckman Coulter, Inc), the first test that is agency approved to aid flow cytometry in the marking and detecting of several blood cancers, including chronic leukemia, acute leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, myeloma, myelodysplastic syndrome, and myeloproliferative neoplasms.
The ClearLLab test, which uses a fluorescent dye to mark proteins on the surface of cells for further analysis with a flow cytometer, identifies cancerous cells in blood, bone marrow, and lymph nodes, and gives clinicians information about the type of leukemia or lymphoma that is present.
"This represents a major step forward for the hematology-oncology community. Laboratories and health care professionals now have access to an FDA-validated test that provides consistent results to aid in the diagnoses of these serious cancers," said Alberto Gutierrez, PhD, Director of the FDA Center for Devices and Radiological Health.
The ClearLLab test approval was based on a study showing that the ClearLLab test's results accurately detected the presence of cancer 84.2% of the time.
The FDA notes that ClearLLab Reagents test results must be reviewed by trained professionals.


Hello my rosy cheeked babes!
Here I am back with me and my incessant fascination with roses, and everything rose! And if I claim to be overtly obsessed with rose, I am sure many of you here would be guilty of sharing the same obsession! And why not? Roses are one of those beautiful gifts of Mother Nature which have the ability to say so much with so less words! Being a literature student, I can go on for hours bragging about roses and their vitality in a human life, but my aim today is not that!
I am here to share with you gorgeous people the ways in which we can use rose water (gulaab jal) for our cutely adorable peepers which we stress upon so much! Our eyes have to go through a lot on a daily basis and thanks to such natural things like rose water; our eyes have some scope of relaxation too!
Let us read to know more!
Relax, de-stress and calm your peepers down of the day's fatigue!
Rose water and relaxation sound almost synonymous to me! I seem to get relaxed at the very mention of rose water, and when it comes to rose water for your eyes. I don't see any reason to pass on it! Purchase some good quality cotton pad or liquid-diffusing cotton balls for all your beauty needs. But if you do not want to purchase anything, your good old cotton will do the job almost well!
Dip your cotton balls in ample rose water (yes dip, and not spray them with rosewater). Squeeze off the excess rosewater and place the dampened cotton on to your eyelids. Let it stay for a good 20 minutes, sit back, relax, and listen to some good soothing music for the best relaxation possible.
This would even help keep bacterial infections at bay as rose water has miraculous anti-bacterial and anti-septic properties to say the least! It will also reduce the inflammation of the eyes or any redness which might be there!
Say goodbye to those pesky dark circles!
Who knew dark circles could be gets done away with by using an ingredient as simple as rosewater? Stunning, and bizarre if you ask my first impression about this trick! But with weeks of following this routine, I can affirmatively say that it works slowly, but surely!
Mix equal parts of milk and pure rosewater in a small bowl! Now dip your cotton pad or ball in the prepared concoction and sweep the cotton under your eyes to clean up the skin of all the dead skin cells. Keep weeping the swab till the mixture starts getting absorbed in the skin.
You can also mix milk and rosewater in a spray bottle, shake things up a bit and spray it onto the eyelids and use circulatory motions for the mixture to get absorbed in the skin. Regular usage will show even results in just 3-4 weeks!
Eye drops to the rescue!
Now that we have already discussed the relaxing, soothing and not to forget anti-septic properties of gulab-jal or rose water, it seems more than sensible to use rosewater as THE ultimate eye drops for any given person, at any given time. Drop in a couple of rosewater drops into your peepers and lie down in a comfortable position without attempting to open your eyes.
The rose water will rejuvenate your eyes and make them appear more fresh and sparkly. It has the potency to clear off all the miniscule dust particles which may have accumulated in your eyes during the course of the day, and which can be difficult to remove suing just plain water! A must try trick in the old beauty books!
Bring that oxidant enriched glow to your peepers!
Yes, undoubtedly rosewater is an utmost beneficiary to your peepers. But that doesn't mean that other good things cannot be added to it in order to intensify its rosy goodness all the more! We all know about the goodness of the anti-oxidant boosted green tea, and when mixed with rose water it can do wonders for your skin.
Spray the mix of 3 parts rose water and I part cooled green tea to your peepers to instantaneously freshen them up; or use a cotton pad soaked in the concoction to soothe your eyes.
Okay, let's get one thing clear! One can have pigmentation around the eyes but still not suffer from dark circles and vice-versa. So what works for someone suffering from dark circles is not necessarily bound to work for your pigmented eye area!
Use a paste of sandal-wood and rose water and apply it to your eye-area. Let it set for about 15 minutes and them wash it off with cold water. What this does is relieve your eye of all the pigmentation with frequent usage. It also helps with the fine lines or crow's feet around your eyes!
Do you have any more ways in which we can use Rose Water for eyes?
yes you are right rose water really helps to get rid of dark circles, I used it by my self and recommend you all to use it when you are going to bed. it also help to get rid of itchy eyes as well.

The car: We love it; we hate it.
While embracing our own, we resent others for clogging the freeways, turning our neighborhood streets into speedways, parking in front of our house or condo, or in the space most convenient to our favorite stores, services and diversions.
It is not surprising that accommodating the car dominates most debates over planning and development, be the issue a regional shopping center, a modest expansion of a local business, a request for restrictive parking or installing a stop sign or a speed bump.
Questions on the appropriateness of proposed architectural styles might be interesting and, in the course of a building's life, more important. There is also the consideration of what needs the building might serve, and the jobs and revenues to be generated.
But aesthetics and economics notwithstanding, more immediate and critical to the development process these days is how many parking spaces are provided and how the surrounding streets will handle the expected increase in traffic.
The debates seem never-ending, especially in my hometown of Santa Monica, where the civic stew is a spicy mix of contentiousness and pretentiousness, fired by ideologues of all hues.
Just recently, a well-promoted plan for a 1.2-million-square-foot office complex adjacent to the Santa Monica Airport crashed after its traffic projections and proposed solutions were shot full of holes by a resolute battery of nearby residents.
And this despite the plan having gone through a series of hoops and reviews, to be blessed by the city's Planning Commission and City Council, and given permission to land. In the end, no amount of compromise and political maneuverings could clear the runway.
The latest controversy concerned a request last month for the creation of a permit-parking district on 17th Street, north of Montana Avenue to Alta Avenue.
The scenario there was a variation on a common complaint from residents in Santa Monica and elsewhere who live on streets next to commercial strips.
From early morning to late afternoon, it seems, the parking spaces on 17th Street are being snapped up by Montana Avenue employees and shoppers, a situation heightened by the avenue's increasing popularity.
Once simply a strip of relatively modest neighborhood-oriented establishments, such as drugstores, shoe repairs shops and markets, Montana from 7th to 17th streets now also houses a range of trendy boutiques and galleries with a regional appeal.
"We sympathize with the residents, but the parking is vital, especially for the older establishments," said Lou Moench, of the Montana Avenue Merchants Committee, and owner of the popular pub Father's Office.
He noted that most of the stores between 16th and 17th streets, some with more than 50 years' service to the community, don't provide parking and never have. They have always depended on spaces being available on adjacent streets.
However, the situation south of Montana has long been impossible, because spaces there are more or less used for permanent parking by residents of local apartment complexes. Because most were built when no or little off-street parking was required, few offer it.
In addition, many of the garages in the alleys are now used illegally for storage and bootleg apartments.
Aggravating the problem north of Montana is the recent replacement there of existing older homes with oversized and overstuffed houses, providing at best minimum parking. Garages there also have been converted illegally for storage, home offices and staff quarters. The result is that residents tandem park in their driveways or on the street.
But because of the shopper and employee parking, residents complained at the City Council hearing on permits, that they couldn't park in front of their own house, nor could their gardeners, messengers, repairmen, friends or relatives.
As for the tandem parking, they said, it was awkward and inconvenient.
They added that the shoppers and the employees should have to park elsewhere, perhaps the latter in municipal garages in downtown Santa Monica, and be bused to their jobs on Montana.
The residents' comments, offered in the spirit of a Leona Helmsley charm school, suggested that those who work on Montana--the clerks, the beauticians, the waitresses, manicurists and others who served them--were the "little people."
There also was the implication by the residents that when they bought their house (present prices for nouveau mansions there are $1.5 million), they got as a bonus the curb space in front of it.
In reply, most of the merchants testifying reluctantly accepted the concept of permit parking for residents, but argued for a two-hour limit for others, to provide some parking for customers.
The council opted for the permit parking for residents, with a one-hour limit for others, even though a few members labeled it a Band-Aid solution. "We are going to end up 'incrementalling' the city to death," said Councilwoman Christine Reed.
But for now it appears that lunches and window-shopping on Montana for those who park on the side streets are going to be less leisurely.
As for the employees, they most likely will just park on a street beyond the permit zone and walk a few extra blocks to work. No doubt, as a consequence, they will be more fit to serve the north-of-Montana crowd.
Meanwhile, the city is exploring increasing parking requirements for both residential and commercial developments, and more flexible permit parking, including the commercial use of the streets during the day and residential use at night, as was recently instituted adjacent to Melrose Avenue.
There also is talk of redesigning Montana for diagonal parking, at least on one side of the street, which would have the double advantage of providing more parking while slowing traffic.
The avenue, which widens from two to four lanes between 7th and 20th streets, has become a notorious speedway, and is even listed in a book on Los Angeles shortcuts as a quick and easy way to get to the beach from Brentwood and Westwood.
The last time diagonal parking was suggested, residents north of Montana complained that it was dangerous and would divert through traffic to local streets, such as Alta. Although it was shown how such traffic can be controlled, residents there are the type of people who seldom hear the word no, and the idea was shelved by the city.
But now the city is armed with a thorough traffic study by the consultant firm of Crain & Associates that suggests a variety of measures to protect neighborhoods from what they call "traffic intrusion." These include turn restrictions, diverters, one-way streets, cul-de-sacs and closures.
"Obviously, parking and traffic are entwined, and that something broad and dramatic has to be done, particularly to protect neighborhoods," said City Manager John Jailli. "The problem is that whatever we come up with is going to inconvenience someone."
Given the growth of Los Angeles, it is time for cars to start giving some ground, to be inconvenienced.
The good life here doesn't have to mean a parking space wherever you want it, to zip in and out in a soundproof, climate-controlled capsulated car.
Perhaps it will mean parking a few blocks away and walking along the street, pausing to say "hello" to your neighbors and the local merchants, and all the people who make a parking district and traffic zone a neighborhood.

Choo Choo Train

Steam, Slight glow from the lights at night
How To Get It
Only available through trading
The Choo Choo Train is a six-seater legendary vehicle in Adopt Me! that could have been obtained from an old rotation of Gifts at Santa's gift display.
Much like the other temporary Gifts Display legendary vehicles, it was only available for one week at a time, and if a player did not purchase it before the deadline, they had to wait before it becomes available as a prize again. Previously, it was on rotation with the Banana Car and the Hoverboard.
As of the 2021 Gift Refresh update, the Choo Choo Train was replaced with another rotation of legendary vehicles. It can now only be obtained through trading.
1 Handling & Speed
3 Pros & Cons
Handling & Speed
The Choo Choo Train is one of the slowest vehicles in the game and can be outrun by most other multi-passenger vehicles. Its sheer length makes it almost impossible to maneuver, and its railcars have the tendency to get stuck, especially when it is initially spawned. The Choo Choo Train, like the Travelling House, is incredibly impractical for actual use due to its sheer size and is therefore mostly used for roleplaying or trading.
The Choo Choo Train is headed by an antique steam-powered locomotive with a navy blue base, a gold trim, and two lanterns attached to it, one in the front and one on the left side. The lanterns glow at night, and steam blows out of the blast-pipe when the Train is moving. The design seems to be based on typical American steam locomotives built in the 19th century (the 1800s). The Choo Choo Train has 5 box-shaped railcars connected to it. Five out of the six available seats are railcars, with the driver's seat being in the locomotive. The railcars have the same color pattern as the locomotive itself, also sharing the same wheels. The railcars of the Choo Choo Train don't resemble any sort of real-life railcar, but they do share a similarity to mine-carts (despite the fact that mine-carts aren't pulled by steam locomotives).
Easy to control Hard to obtain
Can seat up to 5 passengers Large size
Legendary Slow
Can carry many people including pets Cannot be spawned in small areas
Has steam effect
The Choo Choo Train is currently one of the three vehicles in Adopt Me! that has a total of six seats, the other ones being the Limo and the Camper Van.
The Choo Choo Train doesn't change the size when the player is playing as a baby. The only other vehicles that don't change size are the Ice Cream Truck and the Travelling House.
It is the only vehicle that is shrunken while on display at the gift stand.

Q: Problems finding JobDefinition in WebApplication-Feature in SharePoint 2010 I got a SharePoint-Feature under the WebApplication-Scope that should create a Timer-Job.
On feature-activation (before creating that Job) and on feature-deaktivation I want to delete the job if it already exists. This is the feature-activation-Code:
public class myJob : SPJobDefinition
  public myJob() : base("JobName", SPAdministrationWebApplication.Local, null, SPJobLockType.Job) {}
}

public class JobFeature : SPFeatureReceiver
{
  public override void FeatureActivated(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)
  {
    SPWebApplication application = properties.Feature.Parent as SPWebApplication;
    // 1. Delete old Job if exists
    foreach (SPJobDefinition job in application.JobDefinitions)
    {
      if (string.Equals(job.Name, "JobName"))
      {
        job.Delete();   // NEVER GETS HERE
      }
    }
    // 2. Install job
    myJob deploymentJob = new myJob();
    SPMinuteSchedule schedule = new SPMinuteSchedule { BeginSecond = 0, EndSecond = 59, Interval = 5 };
    deploymentJob.Schedule = schedule;
    deploymentJob.Update(); // CRASHES
  }
}

The Problem is: The code that should delete the job is never reached. The job just does not seem to be in application.JobDefinitions. ("// NEVER GETS HERE" in the code above)
But when I try to create the deploymentjob I got an exception that the job already exists ("// CRASHES" in the code above):
{"An object of the type myJob named \"JobName\" already exists under the parent Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPAdministrationWebApplication named \"\".  Rename your object or delete the existing object."}

Where is the error?

A: When using another constructor it works...
public myJob(SPWebApplication application)
            : base("JobName", application, null, SPJobLockType.Job)
        {

        }

Seneca Valley seniors are semifinalists for scholarship
September 13, 2018 Cranberry Breaking News
JACKSON TWP — Six Seneca Valley High School seniors are semifinalists in the 2019 National Merit Scholarship Program.
Officials of National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) announced Katherine Bablak, Victoria Beck, Jacob Geil, Ryan Lipscomb, Scott McElhinny and Rishin Sharma as having the opportunity to continue in the competition for some of the 7,5000 scholarships worth more than $31 million that will be offered in the spring, according to a Thursday news release from the district.
Four other seniors, Tiffany Eaton, Bradley Hartman, Jarrett Johnston and Sneha Padamati, were named National Merit Scholarship Qualifiers and may be candidates for special scholarships provided by corporate and business sponsors later in the year.
About 1.6 million juniors in more than 22,000 high schools entered the 64th annual scholarship program by taking the 2017 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, which serves as an initial screen of program entrants.
The nationwide pool of semifinalists, representing less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors, includes the highest scoring entrants in each state. The number of semifinalists in a state is proportional to the state's percentage of the national total of graduating seniors.
From the semifinalists, about 15,000 students are expected to advance to the finalist level. In February, they will be notified of this designation.

Episode 21: The Christopher Halsted and Ronnie Sperling Sessions
Christopher Halsted (left), Ronnie Sperling (right)
When it comes to dynamic duos, these two are truly dynamite! Meet our friends Christopher Halsted and Ronnie Sperling, who just teamed up to write their latest original musical, "Cirque Des Pirates" premiering July 11, 2014 at the Teenage Drama Workshop at California State University, Northridge. You may also know Chris and Ronnie from "A Faery Hunt," Los Angeles' longest-running interactive show for children.
In this podcast, Chris and Ronnie take us through their collaborative process of writing a new musical from concept to completion. And they should know, because this is the fourth original show they've written for the Teenage Drama Workshop. Their previous titles include "Snow White and the Magnificent Seven" (no dwarves, just iconic film cowboys) and "Jacques and the Bean Stock" (in which young Jacques faces the giant threatening his fabulous French restaurant).
We like to say Chris and Ronnie's original shows are 'Fractured Fairy Tales'-meets-'The Simpsons', because they are chock full of clever wordplay, references and jokes that kids and adults can enjoy together.
When they're not writing original musicals, Chris and Ronnie are true renaissance men, working as actors for the stage, TV and film, as well as directors, teachers, writers, producers, musicians and more. Their many commercials have filled the airwaves for years. (You might recognize Ronnie as one of the sick PCs in those iconic Mac vs. PC ads, or Chris as the Chevy Silverado cowboy.) During our free-wheeling chat, Chris talks about his days in Imagineering at Disney and in the Wild West show at Universal Studios, and shares that today, when he's not acting or working with Ronnie, you can find him orchestrating custom corporate events or restoring the many vintage props, instruments or other treasures he acquires. Meanwhile, Ronnie tells us about his early career in acting, working alongside luminaries like Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. And he tells us how all these years later, he's proud to still be a working actor, director, writer and comedian in venues around the country. (We might add that Ronnie's also a highly respected teacher of improv to young people, with many of his students appearing on The Disney Channel and in other TV and film projects.)
Of course, teaching young people is one of Chris and Ronnie's greatest passions. And in our interview, they talk about why theatrical training is so important for young people today. They also offer sage advice to aspiring performers on a variety of topics, from auditioning, to having many sources of income (writing, performing, teaching), and even why it's so important to watch a lot of TV so that you can learn from other actors. Be sure to tell that to your parents, kids!
Sit back and enjoy Chris and Ronnie. Then be sure to call the Associated Students Ticket Office at CSUN at 818/677-2488 to get your tickets for "Cirque des Pirates," because the performances will sell out! The show runs July 11-26, 2014 in Northridge, CA.

The New Year is an appropriate time to review the progress of Humanities 20:20 and to look ahead at plans for 2020. The steering group of Humanities 20:20 is a small group of educators who are passionate about the role which the humanities can and should play in the education of the whole child and the primary curriculum, as set out in the Humanities 20:20 manifesto.
While young children need to become confident readers, writers and mathematicians, the aims of primary education must be much more ambitious. We believe that the humanities provide an excellent context for children to apply and embed the skills associated with literacy and numeracy; and that all children benefit from such a curriculum, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds. We hope to encourage schools and teacher educators to give greater prominence to how young children can learn to be, and become, thoughtful, confident and compassionate citizens. This is especially important in troubled times when the challenges facing the human race are so formidable.
The name Humanities 20:20 tries to capture the idea of a vision whereby the current imbalance in the primary curriculum is corrected. There have been encouraging signs, notably the new Ofsted Inspection Framework's emphasis on schools providing a balanced and broadly-based primary curriculum, especially in Key Stage 2.
We have contacted many other organizations and individuals with similar aims and organized a valuable roundtable discussion. This has convinced us that there is a strong groundswell of opinion supporting our vision, but that many schools and teachers are unsure how to introduce such a curriculum or are worried about doing so. Yet we have also encountered many schools who are doing so in ways which excite and engage children - and their teachers.
We certainly cannot achieve our vision on our own. But we hope to encourage others to join us on our - and their - journey. We are currently planning two events in 2020 called 'Lets Celebrate the Humanities' – one for primary schools to showcase how they are incorporating the humanities within their curriculum, one for teacher educators to enable those becoming primary teachers to understand the importance of the humanities. Details should be available soon,
We will continue to work with Ofsted to argue the case for the humanities throughout primary education and for better support for primary schools, especially humanities leaders. We are planning to write an open letter to politicians and the press and hope that many other educators will support this. We intend once the political climate is more settled to try and gain the support of politicians in Parliament so that teachers and headteachers are enabled and encouraged to provide a much broader and more engaging primary curriculum than many of them feel able to do at present.
While we would like to imagine that 2020 will be the year when the humanities regain their rightful place within the primary curriculum, it is perhaps more realistic to see 2020 as the start of a decade when there is a wider recognition that the humanities are what enables children to think about and cope with the complex often controversial questions and challenges we all face. We urge you to join us in helping to make this vision a reality and tell us about your plans and your achievements.

"Mayor Que Usted" (English: "Older Than You") is a song by Dominican singer Natti Natasha, Puerto Rican rapper Daddy Yankee and Puerto Rican duo Wisin & Yandel, released on June 17, 2022 under Pina Records and Sony Music Latin. It was written by Natti Natasha, Daddy Yankee, Wisin & Yandel, Puerto Rican producers DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz and Ovimael "OMB" Maldonado, Puerto Rican rapper Pusho, Puerto Rican businessman and Natti Natasha's husband Raphy Pina, Kevin Galván, Kedin Maysonet, Wander Méndez and Rafael Salcedo. It was produced by DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz, Raphy Pina and Wisin.

It is a reggaeton and bachata fusion reminiscent of the single "Mayor Que Yo" (2005), in which Daddy Yankee and Wisin & Yandel participated, blending contemporary sounds with those found on that song, as well as "touches of merengue ripiao". Commercially, it peaked at number one in the Dominican Republic, Mexico and Puerto Rico, at nine in Honduras, at 18 in El Salvador and at 29 on the US Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart.

Background and composition
"Mayor Que Usted" was written by Natti Natasha, Daddy Yankee, Wisin & Yandel, DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz's members Edgar Semper and Xavier Semper, Ovimael "OMB" Maldonado, Pusho, Kevin Galván, Kedin Maysonet, Wander Méndez, Rafael Salcedo and Pina Records' CEO Raphy Pina, who is Daddy Yankee's manager and Natti Natasha's husband. It was produced by DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz, Raphy Pina and Wisin. It was recorded and mixed by DJ Luian and Mambo Kingz, with Santo Niño also serving a recording engineer, and was mastered by Puerto Rican audio engineer Esteban Piñero.

Natti Natasha and Daddy Yankee had previously worked together on singles including "Otra Cosa" (2016), "No Lo Trates" and "Runaway" (both 2019), while she also collaborated with Yandel on his Quien Contra Mí 2 track "Diablo En Mujer" (2020), and is her first song with Wisin and both Wisin & Yandel as duo. It will be the last collaboration between Daddy Yankee and Wisin & Yandel, since the former announced that he will retire after the end of his farewell concert tour, La Última Vuelta, and the latters will disband as duo after their tour La Última Misión. The three of them had also worked together on other singles including "No Me Dejes Solo" (2004), "Mayor Que Yo" (2005), "Noche de Entierro" (2006) and "Si Supieras" (2019).

Natti Natasha felt that she was accomplishing something "nearly impossible" by working with Daddy Yankee and Wisin & Yandel, who she referred to as her "referents" and described collaborating with them as "priceless". She also stated that "in this last stage of their careers, now they are the older ones and I am the younger, in charge of continuing to bring my music to the world." Los Angeles Times reported that the collaboration was achieved before Daddy Yankee's retirement announcement in March 2022.

The song's title, chorus and fusion between reggaeton and bachata are reminiscent of "Mayor Que Yo" (2005) by Puerto Rican singer Tony Tun Tun, Wisin & Yandel, Daddy Yankee and Puerto Rican rappers Héctor el Father and Baby Ranks. It also interpolates Wisin & Yandel's singles "Mírala Bien" (2005) and "Ahora Es" (2007) and Daddy Yankee's Talento de Barrio track "Come y Vete" (2008). The collaboration was first announced on June 14, 2022 by Wisin & Yandel on their social media, who posted that it would be with Daddy Yankee and a to-be-announced artist. Daddy Yankee posted that he "could not leave without this collaboration" and Natti Natasha's involvement was announced the following day. It is a reggaeton song with a duration of three minutes and fifty-four seconds that blends modern sounds with those found in "Mayor Que Yo", as well as "touches of merengue ripiao".

Commercial performance
"Mayor Que Usted" debuted at number 46 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs on the issue dated July 2, 2022, becoming Natti Natasha's 24th chart entry, Daddy Yankee's 99th and Wisin & Yandel's 49th, eventually peaking at number 29 on September 3, 2022. It also reached number one in the Dominican Republic, Mexico and Puerto Rico, number nine in Honduras and number 18 in El Salvador.

Live performances
Natti Natasha, Daddy Yankee and Wisin & Yandel performed the song live for the first time at the 19th Premios Juventud, held on July 21, 2022 at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Impact of the Polis System Crisis on the Nature and Line of Economic Activity in the Ancient Greek Poleis of the 5th-4th century BC
Borys Popelniuk Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3003-8985
Keywords: Greek poleis, economic system, crisis, democracy, polis system, import, welfare growth, citizens, urbanization
The impact of the crisis of the polis system as a result of the Greco-Persian Wars, and especially the Peloponnesian War, one of the reasons for which was the contrary economic interests, is analyzed in the paper. While the poleis of the Athenian Maritime Union tried to develop intensive branches of economy and were interested in developing trade and crafts, the Peloponnesian Union, led by Sparta, focused on agriculture and subsistence production, as well as competition in the sales markets between Athens and Corinth. Just those wars were almost the most important factors in the crisis processes, the consequences of which showed up in nearly all spheres of life of ancient Greek society – from social relations, political institutions, ideology and army structure to the economy, and that in turn led to a deep transformation of ancient Greek society.
The main methodological principle in the research is the principle of historicism, which allows determining the importance and place of the problem under research in the overall evolution of ancient Greek poleis economy. Besides, structural, historical-genetic, historical-comparative, and problem-chronological methods are applied, and that makes it possible to identify historical features and specific crisis phenomena in the economy of the Classical period of ancient Greece, structure them chronologically and consider sequentially.
It should be emphasized that among the scholars there is no consensus on the economic processes that took place during the studied period. In particular, the traditional concept emphasizes the overall decline of the economy, some scholars believe that the economic crisis affected not the whole territory of Greece, but only some of its regions, the third group believes that the processes in the economy «were not so global and were not of a radical character» defining the period after the Peloponnesian War as a «crisis of growth» which was not interconnected with economic decline.
It has been proved that, despite the decline of certain sectors of the economy, such as the ruin of agriculture and the rupture of trade relations between the poleis, in general, income per capita increased, living conditions improved, the number of population increased and became more urban, which in turn had affected the development of trade, especially foreign trade. New conditions in the economy brought to the fore the finances which were directly related to money. From that time on, money was the basis of wealth, not land ownership, as it was before. Ongoing military conflicts contributed to shipbuilding, construction, especially of defense structures, military equipment, which also affected the overall technological progress and development of crafts. Therefore, we can assert that in Hellas in the 5th-4th century BCE took place a general economic upheaval.
