What Is Social Media Marketing?
The Different Types of Social Media Marketing
media ✓ Twitter ✓ social ✓ customers ✓ platform ✓ platforms ✓ Instagram ✓ content ✓ brands ✓ marketing ✓ brand ✓ users ✓ PHOTO ✓ Facebook ✓ people
At Intellifluence we dog food everything we do, so a significant portion of our traffic comes from having our own community of influencers share their experiences on Facebook in order to engage that audience, on Twitter to expand reach, on Linked In to appeal to professionals, and so much more, he explained. For instance, Wendys does an incredible job on Twitter engaging with their audience via their own account…sometimes theyll amplify the work of influencers as well and will utilize paid ads, but their focus is on delivering snark, explained Sinkwitz. Social media marketing can be as simple as a pre-scheduled content with a certain attainable/measurable business objective, e.g. to increase reach, brand awareness, convert users to sales, drive more traffic to websites, explained Raad.

 The Different Types of Social Media Marketing ✓ The Different Types of Social Media Marketing

 How is social media marketing important to brands? The number of social media users in the United States is expected to reach 2. According to a new report from social media analytics firm Intellifluence, more than half of US adults use social media to connect with friends and family. Social media has transformed the way we interact with each other. Social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn are still important for brands to use in their social media marketing. In our series of letters from African-American journalists, journalist and columnist David Sinkwitz explains the three prongs of social media marketing. The H1N1 swine flu outbreak in the United States and Canada in 2009 changed the way people looked at the world. In our series of letters from African journalists, filmmaker and columnist Farai Sevenzo looks at the importance of social media for brands. Social media is a great way for brands to connect with their customers. A social media marketing campaign is an attempt by a company to engage with its target audience on social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. In our series of letters from African journalists, Kelvin Chan, CMO at Training.com, looks at the changing landscape of social media marketing. In an exclusive interview with the BBC, Hong Kong-based social media expert and founder of social media consultancy firm Chan Media Group, Kevin Chan, said that it is best to focus on one or two social media platforms at a time. In our series of letters from African journalists, film-maker and columnist Ahmed Rashid looks at some of the most popular social media platforms. A new study suggests that different businesses are more likely to do well on different social media platforms. Social media is a great way for brands to connect with their customers online.

Robb GP, Steinberg I. A practical method of visualization of the chambers of the heart, the pulmonary circulation, and the great vessels in man. J Clin Invest., 1938, 17, 507
Dotter CT, Steinberg I. Angiocardiography. Annals of Roentgenology, vol 20., New York, Paul B. Hoeber.1952
Steinberg and Robb, physicians at Bellvue and New York University Hospital, described the technique of angicardiography for the first time in 1938. The procedure consisted of the radiologic examination of the cardiac chambers and thoracic great vessels during the opacification by an intravenously injected radio-opaque solution. This improved visualization of cardiovascular structures enabled cardiologists to diagnose a variety of congenital and acquired cardiac diseases with a greater precision. The opacification of esophagus with injection of barium sulphate was also performed to enhance the delineation of the borders of the cardiac chambers, particularly the left atrium.
In 1952, Dotter and Steinberg published their book entitled "Angiocardiography" which is the most authoritative work on that topic to date and still very informative. The book is divided into 14 chapters with detailed description of imaging findings in patients with cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases.
A section of the chapter seven deals with angiocardiographic findings in patients with rheumatic valve disease, mostly mitral stenosis and regurgitation. Their studies demonstrated the anatomic changes responsible for the characteristic cardiac silhouette in mitral stenosis.
Dotter and Steinberg observed that on lateral chest X-ray the prominence of the anterior heart border encroaching upon the retrosternal space was largely due to left atrial dilatation with anterior displacement of the superior vena cava and the right heart chambers. Prior to their study, this imaging finding was attributed to right ventricular dilatation and its pulmonary conus.
They also were able to show that the prominence in the left midcardiac border seen in frontal view was caused by the dilated left atrial appendage and dilated pulmonary artery and not the pulmonary conus.
They also showed several cases of valvular heart disease with characteristic findings in cinecardioangiography.
The introduction of cardiac catheterization in 1940's and 50's combining imaging studies and hemodynamic measurements was a major advance in the precise diagnosis of valvular heart disease rendering the use of angiocardiography obsolete.

Know that God's Word has to be front and center. We have to be thinking about it, be able to quote it. Refuse to let fear and discouragement hold us back; for wherever we go, God will be with us.- Lysa TerKeurst.
Last week, I introduced you to TerKeurst's book, The Best Yes, which challenged me in the area of priorities. My running friend gave me a daily calendar based on the book to help me focus daily on some key principles.
The above quote reminded me that I not only need to train physically for this half marathon, but I also need to prepare mentally for the spiritual endurance life demands. Together, we've challenged ourselves to memorize the book of Ephesians during the training weeks ahead.
As a teen, I committed books of the Bible to memory through the Christian Alliance Church's Bible quiz team. Those years memorizing God's Word built a foundation of Scripture and truth in my life that have seen me through some tough times. Recently, though, I haven't been intentional about memorizing God's Word, and I want to change that.
Why should we know God's Word by heart? Psalm 119 reveals Scripture's priceless value and offers several truths that show why we need the "living and powerful" Word (Hebrews 4:12) to be active in our lives.
Cleanses (Psalm 119:9). If we stray from a path or lifestyle that's pleasing to God, we can immerse ourselves in the cleansing power of Scripture.
Guards (Psalm 119:11). There's a sign in my chiropractor's office that says, "Prevention: the best cure for disease." We hide God's Word in our hearts so we won't go places and do things that contradict God's will.
Revives (Psalm 119:25). Have you ever felt worn out with life's trials? God's Word provides a source of comfort and refreshment like nothing else can offer.
Strengthens (Psalm 119:28). We can't build physical endurance if we don't exercise, nor can we grow our spiritual "muscles" if we don't spend time in God's instruction book.
Prepares (Psalm 119:42). We can't know what challenges, conflict, and criticism we're going to face from people. God's Word equips us to answer beyond our own wisdom. It won't return to us void (Isaiah 55:11).
Gives life (Psalm 119:50). The Gospel of John describes Jesus as the Word who "became flesh" (John 1:14). He came, lived, and died so that we can enjoy eternal life. Maybe the here and now presents problems that threaten to overwhelm us, but we can rest in the assurance of our eternal life, if we know Jesus as our Savior.
Offers hope. (Psalm 119:76, 81). The Bible is full of "precious promises" (2 Peter 1:4) that we can pray. God's mercy today is just as deep and wide as it was thousands of years ago, and the Word provides us with hope for tomorrow.
We're privileged to live in a time where the Bible is more readily accessible than ever before. With a few keystrokes, we can look it up online, download it on our portable devices, and even have Scripture texted directly to our phones throughout the day (with apps like GoTandem).
Yet its availability sometimes gives us a complacency regarding its worth.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God (NKJV).
The only way we can renew our minds and discern God's will is to know God's Word.
Will you join me? You don't even have to start with a whole book. Choose a chapter or a few verses. I encourage you to comment with your favorite passage that you'd like to know by heart.
Thanks for daring to challenge yourself–and us–to memorize God's Word. Lately, I've been drawn to Romans 11:36, "For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen." This Scripture reminds me that everything we are, and everything we do, come from Him, is through His power, and will return to Him. May His Spirit store the Word in your mind and heart, make it alive to you, and bring it to mind when you need it.

6 Athletes To Watch For In The 2021 Olympic and Paralympic Games
Gymnastics, Olympic Athletes, Paralympic Athletes, Sports, Swimming, Track & Field sportfuelslife 0
As the 2021 Olympic and Paralympic games draw near, we're keeping our eye out for up and coming athletes. Whether it's gymnastics, wheelchair racing and beyond, these athletes are hopeful for the opportunities ahead. Check out these 6 Olympic and Paralympic athletes who are aiming to compete in the 2021 games.
Luca Urlando
A swimmer with a long family history of Olympic competition, 18-year-old Luca Urlando is a 2021 Olympic hopeful. Multiple members of Urlando's family have represented Italy; his grandfather was a hammer thrower, his grandmother threw javelin and his father was a world class discus thrower. Luca Urlando decided to take to the pool instead of the field; his race of choice is the 200-m butterfly.
He began swimming in his grandparents pool in Sacramento, California with his younger sister when he was little. As Urlando got older he started playing more sports, but ultimately returned to swimming, citing the individuality as to why. Due to his family history, Luca has dual citizenship in the US and Italy. Despite the Italian Swimming Federations interest in Urlando, he declined to be a part of Team USA.
Hannah McFadden
"I really just like going fast." says Hannah McFadden, a 2 time paralympic wheelchair racer. McFadden was born with a bone deformity leading to an above the knee amputation. She was adopted out of Albania as a baby. Growing up she was involved in a lot of different sports until finding a passion for wheelchair racing.
This will be McFadden's third time competing in the paralympics. In her first games, her and her sister made history by being the first siblings to compete in the Paralympic Games. Her sister, Tatyana McFadden, is a 5-time paralympian. Hannah states that she is close and competitive with her sister and hopes that 2021 will be the year she finally beats her.
Sunisa Lee
The day before gymnast Sunisa Lee, a Southeast Asian America from the Hmong community, was off to the gymnastics national championship her dad fell off a ladder and was paralyzed from the chest down. Despite the accident, she traveled to Missouri and competed to her fullest potential. She finished second all-around event behind Simone Biles and first in the uneven bars. She cited her father as her inspiration to compete at the highest level.
After proving herself as a great asset in the 2019 championship, Sunisa got the tap to be a part of the USA 2020 Olympic team, a dream she's had since she was 6 years old. Like so many of us COVID has made her life and her training a lot more difficult. Lee says she's had to adapt her training as much as possible to the stay-at-home orders. She's begun incorporating running into her training for the first time, but has limited access to gymnastic training. She eagerly awaits the opportunity to get back in the gym with her teammates.
The son of two college track athletes, Michael Norman was destined to run. At 23, Norman is an all-star sprinter. After finishing up a strong college career at University of Southern California, Norman went pro. In his first professional season he ran a PR 400 and some strong 200s that allowed him to compete in the 2019 T&F World Championships. Unfortunately, during the 400 Norman suffered an injury causing him to back off and not qualify for the finals. At the start of the 2020 season, Norman came in strong and ran a record 9.86 second 100m. Due to the Coronavirus this was the only race Michael Norman would get to run in 2020.
Norman has used the pandemic to reevaluate his previous seasons and up his training. Him and his roommate from USC have continued to train with Coach Watts and Gilbert from USC. Norman credits both coaches with his huge successes during his time in college and now as he begins to cement his professional career. The biggest decision to be made prior to the 2021 games? Which distances Norman will run in.
Morgan Hurd
Morgan Hurd began gymnastics at just 3-years-old. After being adopted from Wuzhou, China, Hurd joined a gymnastics class in Delaware. She quickly impressed her coaches and peers with her dedication and focus and at age 5 moved to a bigger gym to focus on her training. As her training increased, so did her passion for the sport. Her most notable achievement: becoming the 2017 World All-Around Champion. Hurd's strength lies in her consistency across all events.
Since then she has struggled some with injury, but the delaying of the Olympic games might benefit her. Hurd is looking at the delay as a time to build her strength and confidence. Though it is difficult to find somewhere to train, she is hoping to upgrade during this time.
Ezra Frech
Paralympic hopeful Ezra Frech is just 15 years old and an advocate for those with disabilities. Frech was born with congenital limb differences; missing both his left knee and fibula as well as fingers on his left hand. At 11 months, he received his first prosthetic leg and he has been playing sports, particularly track & field, nonstop since. His passion for all sports led to him and his family starting the Angel City Sports group and the Angel City Games to allow para-athletes to compete in sports year-round.
Frech has set records in field events over the years. He competes in high jump, long jump and more. In 2019, Frech was a part of the World Para Athletics Junior Championships where he won gold in high jump and bronze in both long jump and the 100m. He also competed in the 2019 World Para Athletics Championships in Dubai, but did not medal.

Atrioventricular blocks are a set of disorders of the cardiac conduction system that cause the atrial electrical stimulus to the ventricles to be delayed or interrupted 1.
They are caused by an alteration in the atrioventricular node or in the bundle of His, although they can also be caused by malfunctions in other heart structures (see cardiac conduction system) or metabolic alterations such as hyperkalemia.
There are three types of AV blocks based on their severity.
In First degree atrioventricular block there is a delay in the stimulus as it moves through the AV node or the His-Purjinke system, delaying the appearance of the QRS complex.
The distinctive alteration on the electrocardiogram is the prolonged PR interval, with a narrow QRS complex if no other alteration is present.
Furthermore, in first Ddegree atrioventricular block there is no AV conduction interruption, so all P waves are followed by a QRS complex, in contrast to the other two types of AV blocks.
More information: First degree AV block.
In second degree atrioventricular block a discontinued interruption of the stimulus on its way from the atria to the ventricles is observed. Non-conducted P waves (not followed by QRS complexes) can be seen on the electrocardiogram.
They are classified into second degree AV block type I and type II according to their characteristics on the electrocardiogram.
Progressive slowing of the atrioventricular conduction until the impulse fails to be conducted is observed during the second degree AV block, type I.
Progressive prolongation of the PR interval until a P wave is blocked.
The RR interval progressively shortens until a P wave is blocked.
Normal QRS complex, if no other alteration is present.
The RR interval containing the blocked P wave is shorter than the previous two RR intervals.
Second degree AV block type II is less frequent than the aforementioned and generally implies underlying cardiac pathology 3.
This type of atrioventricular Block is noted for an abrupt block of the AV conduction, without previous PR interval prolongation.
Blocked P wave with previous and subsequent PR intervals of similar duration.
The PR interval following the blocked P wave is of similar duration to those previous.
The RR interval surrounding the blocked P is equal to the two preceding ones.
In certain cases a particular sequence might follow — a blocked P wave every three normal QRS complexes. There may be no pattern in those high grade AV blocks (advanced) where more than one consecutive P wave might appear.
This kind of AV block might unexpectedly progress to complete AV block and normally requires a permanent pacemaker.
Third degree atrioventricular block — or vomplete AVbBlock — is noted for the complete interruption of the AV conduction. No atrium-generated stimuli is conducted to the ventricle, which means that both atria and ventricles contract at their own pace.
The ventricular rate will depend on the originating point of the escape beat (AV node, bundle of His or a bundle branch). The higher the location of the AV block, the faster and and narrower the QRS complexes.
Morphology and frequency of the QRS complexes will depend on the originating point of the escape beat. If coming from the AV node, higher frequency and narrower QRS complexes. If coming from the bundle branches, severe bradycardia and QRS complexes similar to those in bundle branch blocks.
First degree and second degree atrioventricular blocks type I (Wenckebach) do not usually require treatment, although they both can progress to higher degree AV blocks.
Electronic pacemaker implantation is indicated in patients with third degree or second degree type 2 AV block irrespective of symptoms 4.
Before indicating a permanent pacemaker as treatment, other reversible causes for AV block should be discarded, such as antiarrhythmic agents or ischemic heart disease.

Q: Why I am not able to Download multiple files in WPF C# (Pause and Resume not working properly)? I am developing a Download Manager. It works fine for one single file but, for multiple files it is not working properly: what is wrong?
When I enter first url, it works fine, but when I click on pause and try a second url after clicking on download, the first file's progress bar starts from 0, and the first file starts downloading automatically without clicking on resume.
When I click on pause, both files pause, when I click on resume both files start downloading. Why this is happening? When I click pause on first url downloading window, I want only the first file to pause, and when I click on resume, only that file should be resumed.

ViewModel:

Linda-Ann Stewart - "Talk Yourself Through It"
After I graduated from high school, I was gifted with a 3-week trip to Europe with a group of high schoolers from around the country. It was an amazing, mind expanding time of my life. One day in Switzerland, we rode a gondola up into the mountain peaks of the Alps. We wandered around and found a steep snow field that hadn't melted yet.
Snowballs flew, we slid up and down the slope, and generally played ourselves out. When the time came to leave, I was so exhausted, I could barely move. I wasn't sure I could climb back up the slope to the gondola.
Every step I took, I slid back in the ice and mud. I imagined how humiliated I would be if I had to have some of the guys carry me up. By talking myself through it, "One more step. You can make it," I finally made it back to the top.
Research shows that motivational self-talk can let an athlete go beyond their point of exhaustion. It certainly did for me. Studies indicate that encouraging yourself during exercise allows the mind to override the fatigue the muscles feel. The statements must be consistent, not haphazard, to be effective. It demonstrates that the mind truly does affect the body.
If encouraging self-talk can help an athlete perform beyond their body's normal limits, imagine what it could do for various areas of your life? What if you systematically told yourself that "I can do it," or "I'm capable?" You'd be encouraging yourself to achieve your goals. And you could make it come true because you believe it.
Self-talk is a powerful tool that can make positive changes in your life. You almost always have some sort of inner dialogue going on. Sometimes it's positive, in which case, you feel good. At other times it's negative, and makes you feel inadequate and insecure. When you notice the demeaning statements, and change them to more positive, you'll notice a constructive shift in the way you feel. You're programming your mind with what you tell yourself, and you have control over those thoughts.
But talking to yourself isn't just for the areas of exercise and personal development. A few years ago, I had a personal crisis happening in my life. Because of my preoccupation with it, when I left my office, many times I wouldn't remember if I'd locked the door or not. My attention would be on where I was going or what I needed to do next, not on what I was doing that moment. Many times, I had to turn around and drive back to check if I'd locked the door.
Then, I started making myself pay attention by talking myself through it. "I've turned off the heater/cooler. I'm locking the deadbolt. I'm locking the doorknob." That focused my attention, and saved me the time of having to retrace my steps.
Self-talk can keep us in the present, which reduces stress. When you're feeling overwhelmed, stop, take a deep breath, and just notice what you're doing at that moment. Talk yourself through your motions to keep your mind focused on what you're doing. This will help ground you and allow you to handle your next priority better.
This is especially helpful when you've fallen down the rabbit hole of multitasking. This modern life addiction seems beneficial, but secretly drains time and productivity from your day. You can only think of one thing at a time, and only be effective doing a single activity. So, although multitasking feels productive, it's really just the opposite.
When multitasking, it takes several minutes to shift from one activity to another, or regain your focus after an interruption. Giving yourself instructions while multitasking can help. Tell yourself, "It's time for me to shift from x to y." This gives you direction and allows you to concentrate on your task.
When you talk to yourself in conscious and affirmative ways, you're taking charge of your thoughts. It affects your belief in yourself, and boosts you physically. Your attention then directs your actions. Who knows, you may make it to the top of a mountain you thought you couldn't climb.

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.
Cardiac Aneurysm
Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.
Coronary Artery Aneurysm
Coronary artery aneurysms are the dilation of the coronary arteries that supply the heart tissue with blood and nutrients. The dilation exceeds 1.5 times the normal artery size. Complications can occur if these aneurysms rupture. Here is the latest research on coronary artery aneurysms.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can be a serious life-threatening condition if not treated. DVT results from a clot forming in one of the deep veins, usually in the lower leg. If the clot breaks free it can lead to a pulmonary embolism and/or post-thrombotic syndrome. Here is the latest research on DVT.
Dissecting Aneurysm
A dissecting aneurism is an injury in which blood enters between the intima and tunica media of the aortic wall. Often, the aorta is affected, and this is referred to as an aortic dissection. This may result in hemorrhage or in vessel occlusion and insufficient blood supply. Management is often both medical and surgical. Find the latest research on dissecting aneurisms here.
Endoleak
An endoleak is a leak into the aneurysm sac after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). There are 5 types of endoleaks. Discover the latest research on endoleaks here.
Iliac Aneurysm
Iliac aneurysm is the weakness and bulging in the iliac artery wall which can be caused as a result of atherosclerosis, infections, or trauma from hip or lower-back surgery. Here is the latest research.
Infected Aneurysm
An infected aneurysm is a bulge on a weakened blood vessel wall that has become infected. Treatment includes antibiotics and surgical intervention. Find the latest research on infected aneurysms here.
Intracranial Aneurysm
Intracranial aneurysm is a cerebrovascular disorder which results due to a localized bulging of the cerebral artery or vein. Here is the latest research.
Microaneurysm
Microaneurysms are small outpouchings of the capillaries and can occur in various different organs. They are the first clinical sign of diabetic non-proliferative eye disease. Here is the latest research.
Myocardial Rupture
Myocardial rupture is a catastrophic complication of acute myocardial infarction that usually results in sudden death. Here is the latest research.
Platelets are a blood cell that can initiate clot formation in response to damage to blood vessels. Following platelet adhesion, platelets become activated before aggregating. Find the latest research on platelet activation here.
Pseudoaneurysm
A pseudoaneurysm or false aneurysm is the pooling of blood between the two outermost layers of the blood vessel, the tunica media and tunica adventitia. Find the latest research on pseudoaneurysms here.
Ruptured Aneurysm
An aneurysm occurs when there is weakening of a blood vessel wall, which causes the formation of a bulge. Aneurysms can rupture, particularly as they become larger, which puts the patient at risk for hemorrhage. Find the latest research on ruptured aneurysms here.
Thrombosis and Hemostasis
Thrombosis, the formation of a blood clot inside a blood vessel that obstructs the flow of blood through the circulatory system, is thought to occur when natural hemostatic mechanisms, which help restrict the clot to the site of injury, are genetically impaired or are overwhelmed by the severity of the initial injury. Discover the latest research on hemostasis and thrombosis here.
Ventricular Aneurysm
Ventricular aneurysms are thin outpouchings that can occur in the left or right ventricle. The aneurysm may require surgical or pharmacological treatment. Discover the latest research on ventricular aneurysms here.

The two remarkable mistakes that betrayed the secret locations of Soviet nuclear bunkers in Poland
The bunkers were close enough to Western Europe that they could win an initial nuclear conflict before mounting a conventional ground offensive

When generals of the Soviet Union decided in the mid-1960s to install nuclear bunkers in Poland, so as to be closer to their targets in Western Europe in the event of the Cold War heating up, they took nearly every precaution to keep them secret.
But they also erred in two remarkable ways, according to new archeological research on the three Polish bunker sites, which today are either partly demolished or overgrown and stripped of scrap metal by looters.
To keep their nuclear installations secret, the Soviets did not tell the Polish people, who paid for them, but did not find out that they had hosted about 160 tactical nuclear warheads until the Cold War was over and the Soviet Union collapsed. In fact, the Soviets explicitly denied it. The Polish soldiers who built the bunkers had no clue either, as they worked on separate sections with no knowledge about the broader purpose. Many were told they were building barracks for Soviet communications units.

The Soviets ensured that maps of the areas were thoroughly censored, just as they were in the other countries under Soviet control — Czechoslovakia, Hungary, East Germany and Bulgaria. And they built them in areas of heavy forest with low hills to aid in camouflage and ground defence.
They were close enough to Western Europe that, in the event of war, they could win the initial nuclear conflict before mounting a conventional ground offensive.
But then they needed to equip the installations with workers and soldiers, and they were keen that the people running their nuclear operations were psychological stable, so they needed to provide an "illusion of normal life," said Grzegorz Kiarszys of the Department of Archaeology at Szczecin University in Poland, whose research appears in the journal Antiquity.
That meant setting up a life for non-commissioned officers and their young families, evidence of which has been excavated from garbage pits at all three sites, where archeologists have found children's toys. But the Soviets also made the critical error of building football pitches with running tracks around the outside.

In the early days of spy satellites, this was a whopper of a mistake.
"After all the efforts made to keep the location of the base secret, such a decision seems not very astute, at least from a military perspective," Prof. Kiarszys writes in his paper "The destroyer of worlds hidden in the forest: Cold War nuclear warhead sites in Poland."
"A football pitch in the middle of the forest certainly drew the attention of NATO and CIA aerial photograph interpreters," he said.
"It should be kept in mind, however, that although some military structures were recorded using satellite imagery, it does not necessarily mean that the CIA photograph interpreters correctly recognized their function," Kiarszys wrote. "There are no known reports that confirm if and how the structures were interpreted up to the end of the 1970s."
The interior of one of the two "Monolit" bunkers at Podborsko. Grzegorz Kiarszys/Antiquity
The other mistake was similarly goofy. Russians planted spruce trees along the roads that served the bunkers, Kiarszys said, and in Russia's climate this might have made sense, because mature spruce trees can offer very dense cover. But in Poland, one of the sites was in a forest of beech trees, so when they changed colour in the fall, and the spruce did not, satellite photograph interpreters in the U.S. were treated to a clear green line demarcating a top-secret nuclear facility.
"Although these sites are not yet protected by law, their meaning and value is gradually being recognized after many years of neglect," Kiarszys wrote. "Recently, the former Soviet nuclear storage sites have attracted a growing number of tourists who want to experience the material remains of one of the best-guarded secrets of the Cold War in Eastern Europe. They are no longer just the remains of a totalitarian regime or relics of traumatic memories that should be erased. Instead, they speak to a contemporary identity shared throughout Eastern Europe."

Maintaining a hygienic environment at commercial establishments like hospitals, educational institutes, restaurants, hotels, shopping malls & others is extremely important for the health of many – customers & staff alike. Offering pure and clean drinking water devoid of all micro-organisms and chemicals is an important & a basic amenity that needs to be provided at all these facilities. Thus, if you want to run a successful business enterprise then this is one factor that you can't overlook.
Moreover, when one looks at the benefits of commercial RO water purifiers that can be availed by commercial establishments it makes all the more sense to invest in it. Additionally, commercial RO water systems are the best technology to use when the TDS level is greater than 500 ppm as it helps to improve the taste of water by removing dissolved impurities, thus protecting individuals from serious health issues.
Purchasing water purifiers for commercial purposes seems to be more of a norm nowadays rather than an exception. As such, to ensure the optimal health and to make pure drinking water that is clean & taste better available to all – general public and employees one needs to seriously consider installing a commercial UV and RO water purifier in their establishment.
An establishment that takes active measures to provide easy access to safe and pure drinking water is known to enhance customer's experience as well as is able to build trust for its brand. Hence, if you run a commercial business then installing a commercial water filtration system is extremely imperative. A commercial water purifier will ensure that there is no bacteria, dangerous chemicals, corrosive salts or metals in the water. In addition, commercial water filters will also help tackle hard water problems and assist in improving the taste of the water.
With the rise in the awareness of how high TDS level in water can invariably affect the health of many, more industries today such as the food service industry and others are taking active steps to reduce the unnecessary risk that contaminated water can have on an individual's health by purchasing commercial RO water purifiers for their establishments.
Thus, as one of the full-proof methods for providing clean, healthy and pure drinking water on a large scale, if you have yet not purchased a commercial RO water system for your commercial establishment then it is high time that you do so before it inadvertently affects your brand's credibility.

Alfaa Water purifiers at our bank's residential premises at Mumbai are working satisfactorily.
Today, water purification is an essential part of residential projects where buyers demand quality construction and standard products & services as amenities. While builders & developers want to offer the best, escalating project costs need attention.
Alfaa UV understands this perspective and offers water purification solutions that appeal to both buyer and developer.
Water Purifiers as a standard amenity fitted in every kitchen, offer pure drinking water at the point of use. Alfaa's Sparkle and Dewdrop RO are favorite models to choose from. Where TDS (total dissolved solids) levels in water are low and the source of water is primarily treated municipal water, Sparkle and Dewdrop RO are suitable for disinfection. Where water is from underground sources, supplied by tankers and high in TDS, Dewdrop RO is useful and often necessary.
To supply purified water in all taps, making it a fully pure home, or to keeps costs low while offering purified water in the kitchen faucet alone, Alfaa's Centralized Purification systems are the ideal choice. Skid mounted, easy to install and maintain, with a plug in, plug out design this solution is an easy and affordable option.
With water shortages on the rise, and the cost of fresh water escalating , builders must look at options to treat wastewater. Sewage Treatment plants have become mandatory, and wastewater treated by the STP is then disinfected with chlorine to reuse for flushing and gardening. Alfaa UV offers the WWR Series to the Developer community to eliminate or minimize the use of chlorine, making disinfection easy, safe, chemical free and more cost effective as compared to chlorine.
Hotels and food retail chains are places where customers experience hospitality services along with the food. Hotels and restaurants try their best to provide the best customer experience. Food and beverages are main reasons why customers visit the outlet regularly. It is very important for food retail chains to maintain proper hygiene along with providing the best tasting food and beverage each time, to maintain loyalty and regularity amongst its customers.
Quality and taste of water served at the food retail outlet, and water used in the preparation of foods/beverages plays very import role in enhancing customer experience. Every hotelier tries to provide clean and healthy water to its customers. Besides water safety, they need to maintain a standard taste across water coolers, cold-drink fountains, & tea-coffee vending machines.
Hard water can be a big issue at some of these outlets. Hard water contains a significant quantity of dissolved minerals, such as calcium and magnesium. In general, hard water is difficult to consume because of its taste which stems from dissolved minerals and other impurities. In cases of high concentrations of minerals and dissolved impurities, Alfaa's RO and water softener units help to reduce total dissolved solvents(TDS), and enhance the taste of water.
Alfaa's UV + RO purification systems are extensively used in food and retail chains in their various formats, besides warehouses and offices, to address the huge cost of bottled water. Today, Alfaa has become the preferred vendor with leading national and international food/retail brands due to its commitment to purity, understanding of water conditions, and timely service response.
Hospitals and educational institutes are places where a large number of people visit regularly. Chances of cross contamination are also high at these places, especially in hospitals where infections are high. Developing and maintaining a hygienic environment is very important for the health of many. Hospital acquired infections (HAI) can be a significant cost for the healthcare industry and is considered a preventable injury.
High chances of infection in hospitals and educational institutes are through air, water and surface contamination. Alfaa UV's UltraHVAC Air Disinfection Systems help prevent airborne contamination and HVAC surface contamination.
Based on the water quality, Alfaa's UV water purification systems destroy microorganisms from water to prevent water borne diseases such as Typhoid, Gastro and Hepatitis. In cases where the dissolved impurities are high, Alfaa's RO water purification systems eliminate chemicals, and dissolved impurities in water.
Most pools and spas depend on chemicals to sanitize them. Traditionally, chlorine has been in use for more than 40 years to create "safe pools". However, it is increasingly being known that during typical chemical disinfection, chlorine and other chemicals react with organic matter to form hundreds of new chemicals- disinfection byproducts such as chloramines, that have been linked to redness and burning of eyes, skin irritation, asthma, allergies and even cancer. New studies show that your swimming pool may turn out to be dangerous water. Some have even compared the risks of pool chemicals to those of second hand smoke.
Ultraviolet or UV is being recognized as a safer, more cost effective and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional chlorination and has become the preferred choice for swimming pool treatment worldwide. Internationally, the pool industry is moving to UV. With regard to pool sanitation, the World Health Organization (WHO) states that "Lower free chlorine concentrations may be health protective when UV is used".
Shopping malls and retail chains are popular places to shop and browse. A mall's success is pretty much dependant on the customers' shopping experience along with the variety of products available in the mall. As similar products are available at most retail chains at standardized prices, it is crucial to give the best shopping experience to the customer.
Considering the rule 'customer is king', many retailers try to provide good facilities to the customers. Proper facility management, hygienic food courts, well maintained and clean restrooms, and a good HVAC system are some ways that one mall can distinguish itself from another. In crowded malls, poor air ventilation or Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) can affect the shopping experience, leaving the shopper with an unexplained headache. In such situations, Alfaa's UltraHVAC Air UV Disinfection Systems provide sterilized air to create a comfortable and safe environment for shoppers.
Providing pure and healthy drinking water is a way to enhance customer experience in malls and saves the customer from buying expensive bottled water. Depending on the water quality , Alfaa provides solutions by offering UV, RO and / or water softening technology as required. The result: pure and safe drinking water to thousands of happy shoppers.
India is growing at rapid speed, which is creating numerous job opportunities. Corporate parks, commercial complexes and IT parks are growing every year. Millions of people are working here day and night. Providing proper water solutions is a major concern while planning and building these facilities.
Imagine the amount of drinking water which is needed for employees working day and night in these corporate parks. For their health and better concentration, pure drinking water is needed. Alfaa's RO and UV series provide the much needed pure drinking water. Alfaa is an expert in providing centralized water purification systems as well as point of use purification systems. Alfaa's point–of–use water purification systems are also used with water coolers, water fountains, tea-coffee vending machines, for food preparation and food washing.
In big commercial complexes water is also essential for maintaining the facilities. Centralized air conditioning systems used in these facilities require huge amounts of water to keep its cooling coils working. This water needs to be processed and reused. Such water can be reused after filtration and UV disinfection. Alfaa UV provides a range of systems to process and reuse this water.
Maintaining a hygienic environment is another important factor for the health of employees. Massive amounts of water is needed to keep the facilities clean. Water is needed for housekeeping, washing utensils and cleaning floors. Hardness of water can become a major challenge for these tasks. Alfaa's RO and Softener series help to remove hardness and TDS of water, making cleaning easier.
Another area is the green space around the complex. Water requirements for landscaped gardens and lawns is huge. Alfaa's waste water series (WWR Series) can be effectively used with sewage treatment plants to disinfect waste water and recycle and reuse for gardening.


Tess and Chris got married last Saturday at Lila's Wood near Tring. This is a fantastic woodland venue with tipi tents, caravan 'gin' bar, rustic tables and benches. It's full of bohemian-inspired details and is the most perfect place for outdoor wedding celebrations.
My favourite highlights were how all the guests were asked to place a flower around Tess and Chris before the ceremony started. Such a lovely personal touch that made the ceremony that extra special. Also, there was a really good amount of confetti which nicely covered the couple. And confetti is always fun. I loved how there was a queue of adults and kids all wanting to have a go at the swing. I did not see it once not being used. Can't wait to share more from this gorgeous wedding day but a small preview for now.

Why was the new culture and recreation tax kept under wraps during the election?
It's time for Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner to explain.
Jun. 26, 2015 8:00 p.m.
Since it is time to pay our property taxes, it is a good opportunity for Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner to explain why she never once mentioned during her pre-election promises that she was imposing a new annual $100 tax for culture and recreation.
The mayor kept saying several times during her speeches that property taxes would be raised by 2.9 per cent, but kept the $100 tax to herself until after the election.
Now is the for Hepner to tell us why she deceived us.

At the Movies: "The Trials of Muhammad Ali"
This week I saw Bill Siegel's documentary The Trials of Muhammad Ali, which was playing in a limited run at the California Theater in Berkeley. I used to live within walking distance of the California, one of the five movie theaters I could walk to from my Berkeley apartment. This time I traveled there in my good ol' Prius, which still has a Berkeley parking sticker that is now years out of date.
The documentary offers an overview of Ali's career from his beginnings as a medal winning Olympian in 1960, up to present day discussions with his adult children. Born Cassius Clay, he became Muhammad Ali after becoming a convert of the Nation of Islam and refusing to call himself by a "white man's name." The movie features extensive interviews with members of the Nation of Islam who brought Ali into the fold, reminding me of the schism between Malcolm X and Nation of Islam founder Elijah Muhammad that likely led to Malcolm's murder. One Nation member denies that the Nation murdered Malcolm but indicates this would have been fine if Elijah Muhammad had ordered it. Scary.
But the heart of the film focuses on Ali's declaration that he will not fight in Viet Nam. Why should he travel 10,000 miles to kill another poor people, at the behest of a white man who still thinks he's a nigger? Ali is eloquent, defiant, and enduring...and all of this when he is in his mid 20's. The government prosecutes him for draft evasion and his case winds up at the Supremew Court.
I vaguely knew all of this history, but not how it ended. In Ali's case Justice Thurgood Marshall, the only African-American justice, recused himself. Ali's defense included the NAACP, and Marshall had once headed its legal defense fund. This meant only 8 justices were on the case, leading to the possibility of a split 4-4 decision. In that event Ali's lower court conviction for draft evasion would be upheld, and he would go to jail.
A 4-4 decision came down, at least at first. But while drafting the opinion Justice John Marshall Harlan learned from his law clerk that the government had granted conscientious objector status to Jehovah's Witnesses and therefore had no legal right to refuse the same to members of the Nation of Islam. Harlan changed his vote, and now Ali had 5 votes in favor.
With that change, Justice Potter Stewart looked more closely at the full legal history of Ali's case. When charges were first brought against Ali, prosecutors alleged he was insincere in his moral objections to war. At the Supreme Court, though, prosecutors had no doubt regarding Ali's sincerity. This was a double standard, a denial of due process. With that fact established, the justices ultimately voted 8-0 in Ali's favor.
I'm not a person who believes that just because something is the law it is just; often the exact opposite is true. (See the Supreme Court's 2000 ruling in Bush v. Gore, for example.) This is where civil disobedience comes in, of the Henry David Thoreau, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King variety. But that makes it especially gratifying when a legal ruling does actually reinforce the underlying moral claims. Hats off to Muhammad Ali, who did indeed float like a butterfly and sting like a bee.

On At the Movies: "Nebraska"


Aircraft in the foreground seems to have a left aileron with the camo pattern shared by the other two aircraft.
Nice picture! The two background aircraft have a different pattern to the aircraft in the foreground. Was there different factory camo patterns?
It looks to me like the dark "painted" area of the port wing is actually a shadow from the fuselage.
A bit of progress. Primed with Alclad Semi Matte Aluminum. Paints are Mr. Paint straight from the bottle.
You are right! That is NOT a Yak- 9M. I don't know what I was thinking.
They look like Su-2s to me. Kate had more wing dihedral than that . the Yak taking off looks like a Yak-9V . The first Yak does look like either a Yak-9M, D or something along those lines, definitely not a Yak-3.
I have had to go to a free VPN service to connect to BM. I have AT&T and when I try to get on normally it times out after getting the DNS address from Sbcglobal.net. I wasn't sure if posting the name of the free VPN was ok so LEt me know if anyone could use it. I've been having this issue for 2 weeks now.
Best/Most accurate FW190D-11 in 1/48?
I have tested using the new Eduard Fw190-A upper wing to the Eduard Fw190-D and it is a perfect fit. So if you had the overtree kit of the New A-8 then you would not have to worry about the separate gun covers.
The HobbyBoss kit does build up nice and easy but it is missing the upper and lower bump for the outboard wing cannons as well as the gun port being too far out on the wing. None of the 1/48 kits got the supercharger intake correct. it would seem that all of them are based on a museum example except for the Revell trimaster based kit which is the closest to what the real supercharger intake looked like.
Very nice work! I couldn't take my eyes off of the nose of the aircraft the finish and weathering is so good! There is only one small problem That I feel compelled to point out.............IT"S NOT ON MY SHELF!!!
That is a tremendous help! Thank you!
Interesting, all the odd number planes in one row in front of the even number planes.
I seem to recall that the B-26G had the wing incident angle changed by 3 degrees to help with landing attitude. My question is this: Where was the center of rotation for changing the angle? In my way of thinking there could be four points that the change could be made from. Leading edge ( least likely since photos would seem to indicate a different location where it meets the fuselage between the two models) Front wing spar ( most likely in my mind ) rear wing spar or trailing edge I ask because I am formulating a plan to alter a monogram kit to a B-26G but the location of the pivot point potentially will make a huge difference in approaching the changes necessary . So does anyone have any input on where the pivot point should be?
Now fortified with Spitfire clipped wing questions!
Thanks to all who replied. I have decided to go with clear covers and colored bulbs/ lenses since I have found proof of this set up on Series I aircraft as in the pictures above. Does anyone have a close up of the museums TT Mk.V wingtip? I am now trying to find out which side the bulb protrudes from under the clear cover.

Network Capital, Decentralized Bank and Renewable Energy Project Pays Interest of 250% Per Month to Holders
Network Capital is an ultimate decentralized project which through the provision of sublime earning opportunities, has managed to amass colossal investments from crypto enthusiasts.
Network Capital, a renewable energy project paying 250% interest to its holders, has announced that the $NETC staking protocol will allow a daily 7% on users' investments.
Network Capital – An Overview
A team of highly proficient crypto experts conducted a workshop that was attended by the top-most investors from around the globe. By talking to these investors the experts were able to conclude that the most popular investment strategy nowadays is to buy stocks during an absolute recession. Numerous investors are of the view that the ideal time to enter the market is during crisis and uncertainty.
Network Capital is an ultimate firm that aspires to benefit investors by stepping foot into the crypto sector at a time when an outbreak is inevitable. The project has already made its fairlaunch in December and is aiming to reach new heights with the next incoming bull run. Currently, the NETC's market cap is at 2.4M, which is expected to achieve greater milestones in coming weeks and months.
Perks of Investing in Network Capital
Network Capital is a sublime investment opportunity for capitalists aiming to go big in 2023. The firm is a safe investment option that carries extremely low risks. Capital Network is a completely decentralized company that has undergone audit and KYC. It is also supported by an esteemed corporation and a bank from New York.
Investors who purchased the NECT tokens in the Fairlaunch can expect 250% staking rewards for the first 4 months starting from 15th January. The rewards will be added to the investor wallet at a rate of 7% per day.
Capitalists who buy the NECT token from any decentralized exchanges will get 160% staking rewards which will be divided into 5.2% each day.
What Sets Network Capital apart from Other Projects
Network Capital renounced its ownership after the firm was launched making it a 100% decentralized project. As opposed to this, many new firms have hazy contracts making their decentralization questionable.
Many tokens currently being transacted have no utilities which make their longevity ambiguous. The experts at Network Capital devoted their 2022 to creating a thriving ecosystem and were able to develop numerous utilities in this time. Network capital is therefore a great option for individuals looking for long-lasting projects.
NETC the native token of Network Capital has a total supply of 1000000. 45% of the total supply is allocated to the staking pool, 38% to the DeFi protocol, 5% to Fairlaunch, 5% to exchange listings, 4% to marketing, and 3% to developments. The firm imposes a 5% tax on sales while the purchases remain devoid of any tax. The taxes have been fixed by contract and cannot be increased.
The KYC and Audit certificates can be viewed on Network Capital's website. Network Capital had its fair launch held on PinkSale.
Innumerable Projects of Network Capital
Network Capital aspires to create the most efficient exchange in the world. To achieve this end, the firm has studied in depth all the leading exchanges of the world, identified their flaws and has come up with innovative solutions to these problems.
The firm has launched a Network Capital debit card that allows investors to easily convert their crypto holdings to traditional currencies like Dollar, Euro, Pound, and others.
