Beginning in November, Father John Eckert of Sacred Heart Catholic Church and Pastor Rhodes will facilitate a Lutheran-Catholic Dialogue.
Pastor Rhodes is fond of setting context, and this issue is no different. Although the Reformation represents 500 years of division between Lutherans and Catholics, there are many things the denominations have in common. Both are searching for common ground in a time of national divisiveness.
Although Catholics and Lutherans rarely face that level of conflict, they still face the challenge of a divided church. With that in mind, the two church bodies have spent the last two decades developing the ecumenical document, "From Conflict to Communion," published by Lutheran World Federation and the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity.
The first session will take place Nov. 14 at St. John's, while the second session will take place at Sacred Heart Dec. 5. The format of this meeting will include a panel tentatively with professors from Lenoir-Rhyne and Belmont Abbey. The final meeting is a worship service and covered-dish dinner on Jan. 9, location TBA.
Pastor Rhodes agrees. "We use the word 'unity' all the time, but what is unity? How do we live into it?" he says.

For four generations, 54 tribal families of a Gorai hamlet have been waiting for power to light up their homes. Now, the revenue department has finally given its go-ahead to Adani Electricity to power the hamlet for the first time ever.
MUMBAI: For four generations, 54 tribal families of a Gorai hamlet have been waiting for power to light up their homes. Now, the revenue department has finally given its go-ahead to Adani Electricity to power the hamlet for the first time ever.
This week, Adani has commenced work on laying underground cables and using a substation to supply electricity to Jhamjad Pada in a remote hilly area of Gorai.
Ishwar Kisan Nam, a resident of the hamlet, told TOI he is elated that his daughters will no longer have to study at night under kerosene lamps. "My eldest daughter, Anisha, is in Class VII while the younger, Nisha, is in Class II," he said.
Another resident heaved a sigh of relief, saying he can venture out at night without fear. "At present, we use torches and solar-powered light for our homes and to travel at night," he said. Power will also mean the luxury of fans during the summer months.
While most inhabitants have fields where they grow vegetables, some are into fishing and hunting crabs which are then sold in the Gorai market.
The locals had last applied for power connection to Reliance Energy in September 2008. Reliance subsequently sold its power distribution business to Adani Electricity whose officials guided villagers on the documents they needed to submit to the collector's office; the land belongs to the collector.
Political parties helped them with the follow-up work to ensure the files were cleared. Now that the work to lay the cables have begun, a few political parties are likely to include it among their achevements during the forthcoming election campaign, said sources.
The internal land survey was completed by the collector's office through the tehsildar's and the city survey officer, said sources.

Case Study of Active Rock Anchor in Basement

Ground anchors, earth pressures, axial capacity, tiedowns, seismic design, design of ground anchor
A rock anchor is a long, high capacity reinforcement comprising a bar (or tube) fixed into rock and tensioned to a predetermined load. Rock anchors are used widely to improve the stability and load bearing characteristics of a rock mass. Cable rock anchors utilise bundles of steel wires or fibre glass rods to form a fixed anchorage at depth. The inherent flexibility of cable rock anchors allows long unjointed bolts to be installed where there are cramped working conditions or where access is difficult. Rock anchors were first introduced in mining starting in the 1890s. Rock anchors are always installed in a pattern, the design of which depends on the rock quality designation and the type of excavation. Rock anchors work by knitting the rock mass together sufficiently before it can move enough to loosen and fail by unraveling (piece by piece).
Our system aims at the automatic detection of text. This is done by the algorithm. Fig. 1 shows the flow diagram of text detection algorithm. The algorithm steps are summarized as follows. Rock anchors are formed from high yield or mild steels rather than the high tensile prestressing grades of steel that are commonly used for ground anchorages; the latter are more susceptible to stress corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement. Rock anchors in new permanent structures are designed for a service life of 120 years but in structural maintenance applications - corrosion protection should take account of the aggressivity of the ground and groundwater, the required service life and the consequences of failure
In Pune, due to growing need for space which is at its peak but the land being limited, it arises a problem of space for car parking which is a mandatory requirement today put forth by the Municipal authority. So to make full and proper use of the given limited space, we need to go below ground level and create basements to accommodate the ever growing number of cars in the city. To get a dry and functional basement we need to resist underground water pressure in basement area. In this region hard basalt rock is found approximately at a depth of 3 to 4 meter below ground level, so by taking advantage of this hard rock, rock bolts/ rock anchors will be functionally feasible to resist underground water pressure in basements. The column loads of building can be directly transferred to hard basalt rock through individual column footings and it is not necessary to provide raft foundation for transferring column load to natural foundation. However, we need to consider the uplift water pressure that may be developing on the basement structure provided for accommodating cars. To resist this uplift water pressure on basement, a new concept of providing rock anchors is introduced. The basement structure will have isolated column footings which will be transferring the load to foundation and slab anchored to the parent rock by means of rock bolt to take care of underground water pressure. As one of the most widely used application, it is proposed to study design application of rock anchors for the project Sadhu Vaswani Education complex at PCNTDA, Boradewadi, Pune.
As per the project design, the architectural drawings proposed two basement levels for car parking. The proposed basements are 8 to 9 meter below ground level. Therefore to resist this 8 to 9 meter head of water we are proposing use of post-tensioned rock anchors. As per the proposal by M/s Vascon Engineers Limited, column's loads are taken by isolated footings and the underground water pressure is resisted by the raft and the rock anchors. As we are getting rock present below as foundation strata, safe bearing capacity for the same is approximately 1500 KN/m2 and size of the footings are in the range of 2 to 3 meter and column grades are 10.5 meter by 10.5 meter i.e. centre to centre spacing. Thus, proposal of isolated footing to transfer the loads is advisable.
To resist water pressure of 8 to 9 meter head, approximately 3 to 4 meter depth of dead load considering concrete density as 25 KN/m3 is attained which is very high as rock present as strata is very difficult to excavate and going 3 to 4 meter further down in such a compact rock is very uneconomical and time consuming process. So by providing rock anchors depth can be reduced substantially and further excavation is avoided. Now it is to be decided which type of rock anchor would be better suited for the given conditions. As passive rock anchor (or rock bolt) are of low capacity and viable for 2 to 3 meter of water head only, whereas in our case water head will be of 8 to 9 meter approximately. Thus, we will have to go for active rock anchors. Proposal of rock anchors is even more suited by anchoring the cables in the rock below and with the proposed raft at lower basement level. So we are proposing post tensioned cables connected with rock mass below and lower basement raft above and we will be designing the same further.
TEXT INPAINTING
1. SITE DETAILS
Location – "Proposed Building for Sadhu Vaswani Education complex at PCNTDA, Boradewadi, Pune.
During sub-surface investigation it sometimes happens that boreholes do not show presence of water at a point but during excavation water is found to be present at the same place.
To avoid such a condition, introduction of Rock Anchors furthers its cause to neutralize the upward water pressure due to seasonal variations as well as topography of the city.
Two basement levels are proposed by M/s Vascon Engineers to facilitate parking for its commercial tower as a mandatory requirement today put forth by the Municipal authority having a requirement of large amount space for parking.
In this region hard basalt rock is found approximately at a depth of 3 to 4 meter below ground level, so by taking advantage of this hard rock, rock bolts/ rock anchors will be functionally feasible to resist underground water pressure in basements.
The basement structure will have isolated column footings which will be transferring the load to foundation and slab anchored to the parent rock by means of rock bolt to take care of underground water pressure.
A sleeve/sheath is placed while concreting for making raft so as to facilitate drilling of boreholes upto 10 metres in the parent rock for insertion of tendons without affecting the raft later.
Water was found in the excavation pit for elevator, continuously water was pumped out and plump concreting of the area was carried out.
DRILLING OF BOREHOLES
1. Drilling is carried out by means of pneumatically operated rigs at the locations demarcated through the sleeves provided in the RCC raft as shown in fig. 2.
2. The Length and diameter of the borehole are specified in the approved drawings i.e. 10m and 150mm respectively.
3. Fixed length is calculated and was obtained to be 7 meter, free length is taken between 3 to 4 meter and thus we take it to be 3 meter. Therefore, we take total length as 10 meter.
The Borehole is flushed properly with water and air before withdrawal of DTH bit.
3. FABRICATION & INSTALLATION OF TENDONS
The Pre stressing strands of 15.24mm diameter are cut into lengths including free length (4.43m), bonded length (5.57m) and allowance for stressing length as per the design.
Free Length of the prestressing strand is covered annularly with the PVC flexible transparent ¾"hose pipe. The pipe shall be properly sealed at the bottom with OPP tape.
The Bond length of the prestressing strands remains uncovered. The strands shall be untwisted for the specified unsplit length.
The required number of strands are grouped with centralizers spaced @ 1.5m c/c throughout the length of the tendon.
For grouting, 3/4" semi rigid primary hose pipe is tied along the length of the tendons and ensure it protrudes out of the hole after installation of Tendons.
The tendons are lowered into the boreholes immediately after drilling.
Grout is mixed according to the Design Mix.
Cement - 50kgs (53 Grade)
Water - 22ltrs.
CeraExpan250 - 225gm (N.S.additive)
Water cement ratio – 0.42
The water is put into the container first and then the non-shrink additive is added. Then the cement is slowly added and mixed thoroughly with water as shown in fig.3.
Grout is mixed for at least two minutes until a colloidal consistency is produced.
The grout is pumped inside the borehole through the primary hose provided upto the bottom of the hole. The grout is filled from the bottom of the hole replacing the water entrapped inside the hole.
The grout is allowed to overflow until the same consistency of grout overflows from the borehole.
Six numbers of grout cubes are casted and the same can be tested for checking the strength achieved by the grout.
5. STRESSING
Bearing Plate of 20mm thickness is placed at the top of RCC raft. On the top of the bearing plate Single barrels along with wedges prior to stressing.
The prestressing force is not applied to a member until it has attained the specified strength at transfer.
Only personnel trained and experienced in this type of work perform the stressing operations. Special care is taken to apply the tensioning force smoothly and evenly.
Stressing is carried out by single pull jack in two stages in order to appreciate the load in adjacent strand unit.
Under no circumstances, the maximum jacking force exceeds the rated capacity of the jacking equipment being used, or 80% of the specified minimum ultimate strength of the tendon whichever is the lesser.
Proper care is taken during stressing to ensure the safety of all personal engaged in the work.
The operation of jacks, the measurements of elongation and associated operations are carried out in such a manner and from such positions that the safety of all is ensured.
Extra strand length provided for stressing is cut off after completion of stressing.

Fortnite Basketball Hoop Guide: Where to Find the Basketball Courts?
The second week of Fortnite's Season 5 has begun. This Fortnite Basketball Hoop Guide will let the players find the location of the hoops in Fortnite. The second week of Fortnite season 5 has begun and with it, a new series of challenges is here as well. Among these challenges, there is one which will ask the players to score through various basket ball hoops. The challenge isn't about scoring at all. Instead, the real problem lies in finding these hoops. This Fortnite Basketball Hoop Guide will help lead the players straight to the locations of these hoops.
Fortnite Basketball Hoop Guide: Location
Fortnite Season 5 introduced a number of toys in the game. Among them is a basketball as well. Although, the players can play with the basketball anywhere but the challenge is to shoot them through 5 different Basket Ball Hoops at various locations. These hoops have scattered all around the map. Moreover, there are more than 5 hoops around the map. So, finding them will be easy if players know the locations.
The location of nine different places is below to help players to find the basketball hoops.
One basketball court is at the northeast side of the Greasy Grove.
One of the courts is at the northeast corner of Junk Junction. It is quite easily visible to the players from above the air.
A court is also present at the northwest side of the Tilted Towers. Although, it is difficult to score in this location initially as a lot of players land here.
Go to the north side of the Snobby Shores to locate the basketball court. It was once a peaceful location. But now it has gained the attention of the players.
One location of the basketball hoop is towards the south of Salty Springs on the hill.
Retail Row also has a basketball court the south edge. Players can try to directly land in the court.
Tilted Tower features another basketball court. On the west side of this place, there's a Football Pitch. The court is right on the west side of this pitch.
In Paradise Palms head towards the east side until the basketball court is in sight. This is also a good way for the players to explore this place who haven't spent much time here.
Like Tilted Towers, Retail Row also has a second basketball court. At the east side of Retail Row, there's a cluster of small buildings. The court is located right outside this cluster.
The basketball hoops locate at these nine places. Score any 5 of them to complete the challenge. Make sure to always score at different points to complete the challenge. Players cannot score two points by throwing the balls through 2 opposite hoops of the same court. It has to be a different court every time to make a point count. The completion of the challenge will give players new season 5 items and add to the stars of Battle Pass. We hope that this Fortnite Basketball Hoop Guide will help players to locate the hoops.

This blog serves many audiences: Parent who are searching for the right schools for their children. Community members who want to elevate the educational attainment of young people in San Antonio. Educators who want to work at schools where they can do the most good. But we all need to have a consensus around some basic facts, and that's what this FAQ is for.
If you're wondering 'What is the difference between charter and public schools?,' a charter school is a public school. The charter schools discussed on this blog are mostly open-enrollment public charter schools authorized by the Texas Commissioner of Education under Subchapter D. Some are Subchapter C charters authorized and run by independent school districts.
Every charter school has an enrollment area, but it's usually a large area—a county, a group of counties, or even the entire state. Charter schools have the freedom to innovate and create new learning models to help students succeed.
Charter schools are tuition-free. They are supported by state tax money, not local property taxes. Charter schools receive less funding per per student than traditional public schools.
Students at charter schools take the same standardized tests as other public school students. Charter schools are subject to state and federal accountability standards. A campus that does not meet standards for several years will be forced to close.
All students are welcome, including special needs students and English language learners. There are no entrance exams. They are not religious schools and they can not discriminate against protected groups of students.
Charter schools have a limited number of seats. When more students apply than there are spaces available, the school holds a random lottery to determine which students get offers. The other students are placed on a waiting list, and they might get an offer during the school year.
How do I choose a school for my child?
Word of mouth—ask your friends where their kids go to school.
School rankings—find out whether a school's quality matches its reputation. Rankings are often heavily based on standardized test scores, so they have their limitations, but they give you an objective basis of comparison.
Academic model—learn about the school's specialization and curriculum, whether it's STEM, classical education, college preparatory, foreign language, Montessori, etc.
School culture—visit a campus and get a feel for what a classroom is like, what the teachers are like, and how the students interact with their teachers.
Everything else—transportation, sports, music, clubs, after-school care, meals, the parent support organization, etc.
How do I enroll my child at a charter school?
Most charter schools begin accepting applications several months—sometimes almost a year—before the school year starts. Around that time, they will also offer school tours, information sessions, and open houses for parents to learn more.
The best time to apply is during the open enrollment period. All of the applications submitted during open enrollment will be entered into a random lottery to determine which students get offers. Students who don't get offers are placed on the waiting list; they may get an offer later. Applications submitted after the end of open enrollment are added to the bottom of the waiting list.
If space opens up during the school year, a student on the waiting list may get an offer to enroll. The waiting list does not carry over to the next year. A student who applies after the open enrollment period ends will be placed on the waiting list. Some charter schools have thousands of students on their waiting lists.
Since there is so much uncertainty about applications, lotteries, and waiting lists, it's a good idea to apply to three or more schools to improve your child's chances of getting an offer at a high-quality school.

Buying a new HVAC system is a great opportunity to upgrade. In the case of new construction, it's an opportunity to design an energy-efficient residential or commercial structure from the ground up. HVAC maintenance and repair contractor Shackelford Heating shares the factors you should consider when buying a new HVAC system.
Every home has a "Goldilocks zone" when it comes to choosing the appropriate size of HVAC system; it has to be just right. An HVAC system that's too small will end up redlining all the time, which can lead to premature failure. Pick a system that's too big, on the other hand, and you'll have a system that heats and cools your home too fast, which makes it turn on and off too often. This phenomenon is known as "short cycling". A capable HVAC technician can determine the type of system that your home needs.
Different HVAC systems have different maintenance requirements, and scheduling regular HVAC maintenance is something you must commit to if you expect your air conditioning system to reliably keep your home comfortable all year round. Consider hiring a contractor who offers scheduled maintenance as a service.
SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) — The higher the SEER rating, the more efficient the air conditioner will be. Choose an air conditioner with a minimum SEER rating of 13. You might find SEER ratings indicated along with heating system ratings if you're planning on getting a combined system such as a heat pump.
AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) — AFUE applies to fuel-based furnaces, including electric ones. The higher the rating, the more heating you get for your dollar. For example, a furnace with a 90% AFUE rating means ten cents per dollar of fuel you spend on heating gets converted to exhaust processes or heat emissions. Electric furnaces will almost always have close to 100% AFUE as it doesn't actually burn consumable fuel.
HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) — HSPF applies to heat pumps. Units manufactured after 2005 should have a minimum of 7.7. For recently-manufactured models, choose heat pumps with at least 8.2 HSPF.

The Council, on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the European Parliament and the Economic and Social Committee, shall adopt the provisions referred to in Article 187.
The European Parliament and the Council, acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure and after consulting the Economic and Social Committee, shall adopt the provisions referred to in Articles 183, 184 and 185. Adoption of the supplementary programmes shall require the agreement of the Member States concerned.

The budget – Really a Comeback?
by Dr Steve McCabe, Birmingham City Business School
For many who listened to yesterday's budget there may be a feeling that they are living in a parallel universe. George Osborne's claim that we have never been better off will be disputed by those whose incomes have fallen in the years since the catastrophe caused by economic turmoil caused by the collapse of banks. The fact that we have a trillion pound debt was caused by the hubris of speculative investors and so called "casino banks".
That the last government had to save the banks is known but largely forgotten in the spiteful narrative that accompanies contemporary politics.
By and large this was a fairly predictable budget. Most people will feel neutral about their immediate prospects for becoming wealthier. For sure we all benefit from not paying tax on savings. But the rates are so abysmal who really cares?
One significant change that did emerge was the fact that the chancellor lopped £23 billion off his plan to shrink public spending in the next parliament which will reduce the potential impact of spending cuts. Though these cuts will still be severe this is all in the future and who can predict what will happen in the next few years. Be warned, recessions occur every seven to 10 years so we are due another one in the next few years.
What we really need to cure our problems in the long-term is investment in the sort of industries that create real things, like manufacturing that suffered so much under previous governments both Labour and Conservative.
Therefore some of the announcements made today concerning investment in future innovation and research are to be applauded. One in particular caught my attention. This was that loans of up to £25,000 will be available for UK students who study PhDs and research-based master's degrees.
As George Osborne recognises, ensuring that we cultivate the next generation of skilled and talented scientists and engineers is essential to future success.
It is this sort of initiative that may mean we experience a comeback.
The trouble is, welcome though this announcement is, it may be too little, too late.

Top Tech for Today's Cars
There's no doubt that technology today has come to practically every object we use in our lives. Car makers in particular have felt the pressure to stay on top of the trends to satisfy consumers, and they've definitely taken their efforts to the next level. Find out what's going with technology today both in terms of the good (fun) stuff, and in terms of the practical (safety) stuff.
Auto-Driving Cars
The fact that these cars are already here, if not used in the public mainstream just yet, is probably one of the coolest feats of technology today. Manufacturers who don't have official autonomous cars on the market just yet have already implemented a lot of the technology into their cars today. Systems like blind-spot monitoring, lane departure warning, and automatic braking features all take the onus off the driver to be completely perfect when on the road. And while smaller car companies like Tesla may have their models currently on the market, manufacturers like Ford have the capabilities to scale their production line for mass production — putting them somewhat ahead of bringing affordable autonomous cars to the masses.
More Voice Controlled Features
This is in part a safety thing, but it's also neat to be able to chat with your car in a productive way. They are also included in the top benefits of driving for the TLC. While these voice features are not where they need to be to be entirely perfect, they are getting better every day. For those who aren't in a car that drives on its own just yet, using voice controlled features means that you can do practically whatever you want without having to fuss around with your phone using your hands. That doesn't stop people completely from texting or trying to find the live version of the song they want to listen to and not the radio version, but it can be an immense help.
Getting away from our dependence on oil, a reserve that can't last forever anyway, is one of the best possible things that we can do for our future. While charging stations are scarce in a variety of places, that's changing in states like California and Colorado. The more we can accommodate these cars without having to stop at the pump, the more we save our wallets from the brutal fill-up, and the more we become independent of fossil fuels that hurt our environment and make us subject to price changes and whims based on politics, greed and corruption.
MAX Motor Dreams
This one actually has nothing to do with the technology of a car that's on the road, but we feel it's worth mentioning. It's a crib designed for a baby to simulate the constant, steady motion of driving. Since most infants don't have a problem falling asleep in the car, it was only a matter of time before a car company aimed to bring the experience to them without making the parents drive at 2 in the morning. Ford's cribs actually pick up on your particular car's movement patterns and then simulate them in this highly-advanced crib.
Technology is just one subject matter in today'straffic school and defensive driving courses. The instructors are keeping up with what's new and modern in your car, meaning you definitely will not get a lesson about how to keep your 8-track player from distracting you on the road. Consider taking a course to dismiss a traffic ticket or to potentially lower your insurance premiums.

23 August 2022|In news, Beauly, Inveraray|3 Minutes
Ferguson Transport & Shipping Balliemore Cup Final - Stat Pack & Preview
By Camanachd Association
Inveraray and Beauly face off in the Ferguson Transport & Shipping Balliemoer Cup Final this Saturday at An Aird, Fort William.
Read the below stats to get warmed up for the big fixture!
Made possible by...
Inveraray are scoring an average of 2.88 goals per game and conceding an average of 1.53 goals per game. Their best scoring game came just last week as they shipped 8 past Strathglass in the MOWI National Division.
Beauly are scoring an average of 4.38 goals per game and conceding an average of 0.93 goals per game. Beauly's biggest margin of victory came on the opening day of the season when they defeated Aberdour 9-0 at Silversands.
Peak in the middle
The stats show that Inveraray are at their most lethal in the 15 minutes before and after half time with over 50% of their goals coming in the middle third of the game.
Strong opening to the second
When you also add in the defensive statistics it makes it very clear that Inveraray are strongest in the opening 15 minutes of the 2nd half - their combined goal difference for that period this season is +12 compared to just +4 for their second strongest period (30-45). Whether this is down to rejuvinated energy after the break or because Ruaridh Graham's words are still ringing in 'Aray ears it's impossible to say!
Consistently dangerous
There's no real pattern to read into Beauly's attacking stats but they do seem capable of scoring plenty goals through all periods of the match. Their most potent third is 30-60, the same as Inveraray, so we could be in for a real glut of goals in this period on Saturday.
Slow starters?
Beauly concede double the goals in the opening 15 minutes than they do for 4 of the other 5 periods, they will have to be fast out of the blocks on Saturday if they are to overcome a strong Inveraray side...
Watt a player!
Fraser Watt is head and shoulders Inveraray's top scorer this year and has 7 goals in his last 6 matches going into this weekend's final...
Starboy MacCormick leads the way
Scotland U17 Captain Euan MacCormick is the green and white's top scorer this season with 13 goals slightly ahead of veterans MacLean, Forbes & Stewart.

The Gaffer
Inveraray - Ruaraidh Graham
Ruaraidh (pictured alongside son, also Ruaraidh) has an excellent knowledge of the game having played for Inveraray during the glory days. "Teuch" continues to stay fit to help the team out and has made several appearances already this year at the ripe old age of 48. However, with the potential of the Ferguson Transport & Shipping Balliemore Cup and MOWI National Title on the horizon his coaching accumen looks like it could rival his playing ability.
The Gaffer(s)
Beauly- Gregor MacCormick & Niall MacLennan
Gregor & Niall have been in charge since 2021, reaching the Balliemore Final in both 2021 and 2022. They brought a lot of Beauly's young stars through U14 and U17 level and the impact that the younger players have had on the 1st team is clear to see. Under Gregor and Niall's tutelage the 1st team remain undefeated in the league going into the final.

History Digital Logic LTD
Digital Logic LTD started as an electronics service back in 1966. in a Serbian town of Aleksandrovac. In the 80's it has moved to city of Požarevac - where it still operates.
In its humble beginnings the Electronics service "Zvonko" had only three employees who were engaged in repairing TVs, radio devices, musical amplifiers and other electronic devices. Also, service was engaged in maintenance of musical instruments based on digital electronics - in this area, Electronics service Zvonko was the first and only in the former Yugoslavia.
Constantly expanding the area of activity, in the early 90's Electronics Service Zvonko contracted with "Telekom Serbia" regarding service of telephone exchanges Ericsson AXE10 on several locations (Požarevac, Belgrade, Novi Sad, Pirot, Batajnica, and Surčin). This collaboration lasted until the year of 2007.
At the same time, the service was among the first in the country engaged in service of GSM devices and developing software for mobile phones. As part of the software development for mobile phone devices, the company quickly developed unique software solutions with a focus on Alcatel production program. Due to the volume of work and growing need to exchange data with customers all over the world, GSM system at that time constantly engaged two computer servers. That was beginning of the IT sector which was constantly growing in the future.
Experiences and ideas generated while working with GSM technologies and supporting IT infrastructure served as the basis for the establishment of a separate company and brand D-Logic - officially launched in the year of 2000. It is also the moment in which the entire company began the transition from service-oriented to a system that integrates the entire production process, from design and development to production and implementation of the final product.
Initially, the D-Logic brand was primarily based on the development and production of the autonomous identification systems (AIS) which were developed by the ambitious five-member team. This production created the basis for the current D-Logic systems with innovative solutions unique in the world. AIS systems were one of the first identification systems on the market which provided protection from the cloning of identification cards, as well as many other unique solutions which nowadays make them distinctive in the market.
At the year of 2006. Electronics Service Zvonko and D-Logic merged and formed the business structure named SR "Electronics service Zvonko".
The requirements of business have caused the change of companies legal form at the end of the year 2013. when it grew into LTD company named "Digital Logic". Today company operates continuously employing nearly 40 employees. The area of its business operation is divided into five main sections:
Manufacture, design, and maintenance of the autonomous identification systems (AIS) and Access Control Systems.
Design, manufacture, and maintenance of Fleet Management Systems which enable the monitoring of vehicle telemetry data, such as geographical location (GPS), engine RPM, temperature, fuel level, and other important parameters.
Design, manufacture, and maintenance of Ticketing systems, which among other things provide electronic ticket payment systems for companies dealing with transport.
Development of new, unique solutions for the electronics industry, which besides improving the existing equipment often results in the development of entirely new devices and business activities related to them.
The future of the company as well as its growth are based on innovative solutions and constantly expanding development and manufacturing programs and successful cooperation with a vast base of domestic and foreign clients.

Ecological Modelling: We aim to understand these basic ecosystem functions using mathematical and conceptual modelling, systems analysis, thermodynamics, computer simulations, and ecological theory. This leads to a preference for process-based models embedded in theory with explicit causative agents as opposed to strictly statistical or correlative descriptions. These modelling methods can be applied to a wide spectrum of issues ranging from basic ecology to human ecology to socio-ecological systems. The journal welcomes research articles, short communications, review articles, letters to the editor, book reviews, and other communications. The journal also supports the activities of the International Society of Ecological Modelling (ISEM).

"First Four" connected for life by trailblazing effort at FSU
J.T. Thomas, Charlie Hunt, Eddie McMillan and Bobby Anderson were candid when addressing their roles as trailblazers at FSU in the early 1970s.

Eddie McMillan, Charlie Hunt, James "J.T." Thomas and Bobby Anderson don't get together often.
Saturday marked just the second time in over 45 years that the fateful quartet reunited.
But even if they don't see each other often, the first four African American football players to take the field in Florida State history have kept a strong bond.
'We stuck together very closely. We were almost like brothers," Anderson said Saturday when all four were reunited as the guests of honor at FSU's Sod Talk before the Seminoles took on Wake Forest.
Added Hunt, "I think this is brotherhood that will take us to our grave."
All four arrived at FSU in 1969 together hailing from different areas of the south.
Anderson and Thomas were from Georgia, Tifton and Macon, respectively, while Hunt signed with FSU from Jacksonville and McMillan was out of Tampa.
"When they came to recruit me, the recruiters talked to my mother and myself, a little inner-city black guy in the inner-city ghetto and said, 'Hey, if you allow me to take your son to Florida State, he'll leave here as a boy and return as a man and I guarantee you not only will we teach him about football, we'll teach him about the game of life and he will be successful,'" McMillan said.
"That's why I came to Florida State."
Thomas has a different story as to why his loyalties lied firmly with FSU while he was being recruited.
James "J.T." Thomas (Photo: FSU Sports Information)
"My senior year, I had aspirations, but very little options of going to college. A reporter in my hometown called Vince Dooley, the coach at the University of Georgia, and asked him to consider me as their first African American football player. Vince's response was this: 'We're not quite ready for a black football player,'" Thomas said.
"Three days later, I got a call from Coach Bill Peterson from Florida State who said, 'I heard what Vince said, but J.T., we are ready.'
"That was it. Everyone else was off-limits. I shut them down."
In the months after their arrival, they weren't exactly welcomed with open arms.
"A lot of our former teammates didn't want us to be on the team because we were black, but after the first practice that changed," McMillan said.
"We've received letters from our former teammates (since) because it was a different time then."
With FSU on the forefront of desegregation among major universities, it became a central hub of the movement.
Bobby Anderson (Photo: FSU sports information)
"Florida State allowed us the opportunity because they were on the cutting edge of diversity. There were four black athletes at Florida State, but there were only two at the University of Florida and two at the University of Miami," McMillan said.
"What would happen is black students from universities all over the country used to come to Florida State, to the (Black Student Union) house to study our model, to know how to be black student-athletes and black students in white universities."
At this time, the United States was less than a decade removed from the Jim Crow laws being repealed.
Each of the four occasionally used their status as trailblazing members of the FSU football team to help aid the ongoing movement for equality.
Charlie Hunt (Photo: FSU Sports Information)
"Coming here, we were on the forefront of most protests. We were the muscles. We shut down the university a couple times…At times we had our scholarships threatened because we were protesting," Thomas said.
"Some days, we were Martin (Luther King Jr.), some days we were Malcolm (X). That was just kind of the culture at the time."
Added Anderson, "It wasn't overwhelmingly bad. We had some incidents. We did have to influence the administration on some things we thought should happen. We did that, brought about some change. We made the best of things while we were here and as it turns out, we made a difference."
Anderson, McMillan, Hunt and Thomas were all multi-year starters at FSU and McMillan, Hunt and Thomas all went onto NFL careers.
'I think, overall, the coaches that we played under were very good men," Hunt said.
"A lot of times they didn't understand us so we helped them to understand not only us but themselves and how they felt about black athletes."
Eddie McMillan (Photo: FSU sports information)
Thomas had the most prolific career. He set an FSU record with three interceptions in a single game in 1972 that stood for 26 years, was an All-American that same year and went on to win four Super Bowl rings with the "Steel Curtain" of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Hunt has been a football and track coach at Jacksonville Episcopal for 38 years and had the football field named for him in 2015.
McMillan works in public relations in Seattle after a six-year playing career in the NFL with the Los Angeles Rams and the Seattle Seahawks.
Anderson retired six years ago after working for 30-plus years in the insurance business in Atlanta.

Even when they're spread across the country and rarely meet up, their historic ties to FSU unite them.
"We're so grateful for this university and also for its ability to change and transform itself," Thomas said.
Added McMillan, "At that time, we didn't realize what we were doing, but now we've come back and people have told us the difference that it made in their lives.
"The thing that makes us so proud is what Florida State did for us and helped us not only change the culture here, but the culture all over the world."

Brian Hurley - What the club means to me
"I still remember my first morning playing for Castleowen in the Parish Leagues and the sheer excitement surrounding the day - it was probably on the same level as playing in an adult final for Blarney almost 20 years on!!
Throughout the year the club is a hive of activity and particularly on Saturday mornings during the summer where it's amazing to see the amount of effort and organisation being put into coaching the young players of the future within the Club Na Nóg structure. It just reinforces the fact that the club is a constant cycle right from the Club na Nóg through to the underage and adult teams, with no one single event in the calendar more important than another.
A huge amount of effort has gone into the club so far again this year with some very successful fundraising for the development of facilities while on the pitch results for the both the underage and adult teams have been very positive.
The club continues to attract a huge amount of new members every year and this is a great sign that people who move into the area feel like it's something they want to be part of. Blarney GAA has been and always will be a very important and enjoyable part of my life."

"I hope you can envision me sitting in your kitchen telling your screaming mother that you have been killed," the officer wrote on Facebook.
NORTH RIDGEVILLE, Ohio -- A police officer wrote an open letter to a teenager he caught going 100 miles per hour Sunday morning.
The North Ridgeville Police Department shared the letter on Facebook, as the officer hopes the speeding teen constantly thinks about what he did.
"You seemed like a really nice kid who made a bad decision," the officer wrote. "I don't feel bad about this ticket at all. In fact, I'm proud of it. I hope you're paying it off for months and with every payment you think about how it wasn't worth it. I hope you slow down."
The note instantly went viral and has been shared over 65,000 times.
