+{"text": "Knowledge Management Models Supporting Causal Analysis in Project Design Creation\nKeywords:knowledge management models, causal analysis frameworks, logic models, project design, ICT systems modeling\nCorrect implementation of the processes of building causal analysis frameworks is one of the critical elements to ensure success in the proper preparation of project designs. These frameworks are the foundations on which the provisions of the theory of change are based, and logic models illustrating causal links between input resources, activities, outputs, results (outcomes) and impacts, as well as identified problems related to the needs of stakeholders and their proposed solutions. The proper run of causal analyzes requires collecting and using significant resources of explicit and tacit knowledge related to the conducted community mapping, stakeholder analyzes (their needs and expectations), priorities of financing organizations, feasibility studies, and strategic analyzes of internal and external factors. Adequate support for managing this type of knowledge is essential to ensure the possibility of appropriate improvement of the planning, monitoring, and evaluation systems of projects and programs. One of the potentially available directions for developing research in supporting the management of valuable knowledge in the processes of causal analysis in project design creation may be solutions applying the extensive achievements of ICT systems modeling. The study discussed in this paper was carried out to find answers to the following research question: what is the possibility of using selected knowledge management models to support practical causal analysis that is beneficial in project design preparation? The primary purpose of this paper was to develop and pre-examine knowledge management and logic models in terms of their usefulness in the implementation of project design creation processes. Theoretical considerations related to the proposed models were supplemented with the offered possibilities of their implementation and the development of further research on the potential of improving designing systems, in particular when taking into account explicit and tacit knowledge valuable in the correct implementation of stakeholder expectations management processes for the success of projects and programs.\nCopyright (c) 2022 European Conference on Knowledge Management\nThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License."}

Throughout history, these differences have been a source of community strength and personal identity. They have also been the basis for discrimination and oppression. The idea of \u201crace\u201d has been used historically to describe these differences and justify mistreatment of people and even genocide. Today, contemporary scientific understanding of human variation is beginning to challenge \u201cracial\u201d differences, and even question the very concept of race.\nCurrently appearing at the San Diego Museum of Man (SDMoM), the award-winning and thought-provoking \u201cRACE: Are We So Different?\u201d exhibit, brings together the everyday experience of living with race, its history as an idea, the role of science in that history, and the findings of contemporary science that are challenging its foundations.\nOn Saturday, March 19, Dr. Roberto Alvarez will speak about historic \u201cLemon Grove Incident,\u201d the nation\u2019s first successful school desegregation court case.\nDr. Alvarez will provide an overview of the court case in the context of race desegregation in the U.S. prior to 1954 Brown vs. the Board. The presentation emphasizes the role of the Mexican-American and Immigrant populations in U.S. school desegregation.\nDr. Alvarez\u2019s research interests revolve around personal and academic interests that began on the California U.S. \u2013 Mexico Border. This includes the continuing study of the settlement and long-term accommodation of immigrant communities along the California-Mexico Border. Applying anthropology especially in underrepresented and minority communities in the United States and the long-range empowerment of local peoples is central to Alvarez\u2019s teaching and work. Dr. Alvarez is currently Professor of Ethnic Studies and Director of the Center for Global California Studies at UCSD.\nThe Lecture will begin at 11a.m. in the Gill Auditorium and is open to the public and free with paid admission to the museum.\nLocated beneath the ornate 200-foot California Tower, the SDMoM is the city\u2019s only museum devoted to anthropology and archeology. With its Spanish colonial and mission style architecture, the landmark building was originally constructed for the 1915-16 Panama-California Exposition. Today, a key focus of the SDMoM is to create and display dynamic and educational anthropological exhibits about people and places throughout the Americas and around the world.

+{"text": "Stories of Unsung Heroes Fighting for the Planet\nIn the fight against climate change, the world cannot wait for some hoped-for perfect solution in the future. The crisis is upon us, and we need action now.\nWe need as many different strategies, tools, and ideas as possible; and we need them working right away. We need an all-of-the-above solution.\nOne such solution is the Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM).\nThe VCM is not the solution to climate change. But it is a solution.\nIn Carbon Done Correctly, Richard H. Lawrence, Jr. introduces the VCM through the lens of unsung heroes around the globe who are on the front lines of the fight against climate change.\nThe story begins in Honduras, where Proyecto Mirador builds fuel-efficient cookstoves in rural communities. Richard tells how a medical mission in the wake of Hurricane Mitch in 1998 spawned a multi-decade venture to build better, cleaner stoves which improve the lives of people in Honduras while reducing carbon emissions into our atmosphere. Always at the center of the story are the remarkable people who made it all possible.\nBut Proyecto Mirador needed funding to continue its work. Enter the VCM. Richard describes the process of Gold Standard Certification, by which an organization becomes eligible to sell carbon credits, and the subsequent establishing of Cool Effect, a crowdfunding marketplace for carbon-reducing projects around the world.\nAs Richard shows, for the VCM to succeed and reach its true global potential, transparency and quality must be at the heart of carbon-reducing projects: these projects must reach the Top of the Pyramid.\nIn Carbon Done Correctly, you will be inspired by the stories of the work that people are doing to combat climate change, and you will see how the VCM provides an essential tool in helping them, and other people in the future, continue and improve that work for the benefit of our planet.\nRichard H. Lawrence, Jr., is a director and co-founder of several non-profit organizations with specific focus on climate change mitigation. In 2004 Richard and his wife, Dee, founded Proyecto Mirador Foundation, a non-profit that has built over 300,000 fuel-efficient stoves in rural communities across Honduras, Guatemala and Nicaragua. In 2016 the Lawrences founded Cool Effect, a non-profit online platform that enables individuals, SMEs and Fortune 500 companies to offset their carbon emissions through the highest quality carbon reduction projects worldwide. In 2017 they established High Tide Foundation, a non-profit organization involved in the fight against climate change. In 2020 Richard founded the non-profit Carbon Mapper, which develops satellite technology to pinpoint and track point source emissions, particularly methane. In 2021 he helped establish Global Methane Hub with over $200 million in philanthropic funds to support methane advocacy and mitigation.\nRichard H. Lawrence, Jr., photo courtesy of the publicist."}
+{"text": "A technique for simulating extreme-temperature operation of integrated circuits that incorporate silicon carbide (SiC) junction field-effect transistors (JFETs) has been developed. The technique involves modification of NGSPICE, which is an open-source version of the popular Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis (SPICE) general-purpose analog-integrated-circuit-simulating software. NGSPICE in its unmodified form is used for simulating and designing circuits made from silicon-based transistors that operate at or near room temperature.\nTwo rapid modifications of NGSPICE source code enable SiC JFETs to be simulated to 500 \u00b0C using the well-known \u201cLevel 1\u201d model for silicon metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). First, the default value of the MOSFET surface potential must be changed. In the unmodified source code, this parameter has a value of 0.6, which corresponds to slightly more than half the bandgap of silicon. In NGSPICE modified to simulate SiC JFETs, this parameter is changed to a value of 1.6, corresponding to slightly more than half the bandgap of SiC. The second modification consists of changing the temperature dependence of MOSFET transconductance and saturation parameters. The unmodified NGSPICE source code implements a T\u20131.5 temperature dependence for these parameters. In order to mimic the temperature behavior of experimental SiC JFETs, a T\u20131.3 temperature dependence must be implemented in the NGSPICE source code.\nFollowing these two simple modifications, the \u201cLevel 1\u201d MOSFET model of the NGSPICE circuit simulation program reasonably approximates the measured high-temperature behavior of experimental SiC JFETs properly operated with zero or reverse bias applied to the gate terminal. Modification of additional silicon parameters in the NGSPICE source code was not necessary to model experimental SiC JFET current-voltage performance across the entire temperature range from 25 to 500 \u00b0C.\nThis work was done by Philip G. Neudeck of Glenn Research Center.\nInquiries concerning rights for the commercial use of this invention should be addressed to NASA Glenn Research Center, Innovative Partnerships Office, Attn: Steve Fedor, Mail Stop 4\u20138, 21000 Brookpark Road, Cleveland, Ohio 44135.

A sharp reversal in risk sentiment could lead to higher funding costs for New Zealand banks and an increase in domestic borrowing costs. New Zealand\u2019s banks are vulnerable to these risks because of their increasing reliance on offshore funding for credit growth,\u201d Mr Wheeler said.\n\u201cHouse price growth has slowed in the past eight months, in response to tighter loan-to-value ratio (LVR) restrictions, and a more general tightening in credit and affordability pressures in parts of the country. While residential building activity has continued to increase, the rate of house building remains insufficient to meet rapid population growth and the existing housing shortage. House prices remain elevated relative to incomes and rents, and any resurgence would be of concern.\n\u201cDairy prices have recovered significantly in the past 12 months, and the majority of dairy farms are likely to have returned to profitability in the 2016/17 season. However, parts of the dairy sector are carrying excessive debt burdens, and remain vulnerable to a fall in income or an increase in costs. Banks should continue to closely monitor and maintain full provisioning against lending to high risk farms,\u201d he said.\nDeputy Governor Grant Spencer said \u201cThe banking system maintains strong capital and funding buffers, and profitability remains robust. The banking system appears to be operating efficiently when compared with other OECD countries, based on metrics such as cost-to-income ratios, non-performing loans and interest rate spreads.\n\u201cBanks have generally tightened credit conditions in light of funding constraints and the increasing risks around housing. Banks are seeking to reduce their reliance on offshore funding and have raised deposit rates. The Reserve Bank supports a cautious approach to managing foreign debt, in light of lessons learned in the GFC.\n\u201cWhile the LVR restrictions have increased the banks\u2019 resilience to any fall in house prices, a significant share of housing loans are being made at high debt-to-income (DTI) ratios. Such borrowers tend to be more vulnerable to any increase in interest rates or declines in income. The Reserve Bank will soon release a consultation paper proposing the addition of DTI restrictions to our macro-prudential toolkit.\n\u201cThe Reserve Bank is making progress on a number of other initiatives. A review of bank capital requirements is underway and we recently released an issues paper on the intended scope of the review.

With its mellow rocker, wide, stable outline, shallow single to double, to vee in the tail, the Sub Scorcher is as easy paddling, easy planing and easy riding as a modern, pointed nose shortboard gets.\nWe started with our OG Sub Scorcher swallow and introduced the STING. We added a bit of width through the center, some extra rail rocker and injected the radical, area reducing STING at about 18\u201d (1/4 of the way up) from the tail. The STING is followed by a gradual tail curve, into a 6\u201d wide, shallow swallow.\nThe extra width in center assures easy entry and quick planing out of the gate. The STING makes a sharp reduction in width and creates an acute angle for jamming quick, radical, controlled turns into tight sections, or out on the waves open face.

+{"text": "An Expressive and Modular Layer Activation Mechanism for Context-Oriented Programming\nContext. There is a trend in the software industry towards building systems that dynamically adapt their behavior in response to their surrounding environment, given the proliferation of various technological devices, such as notebooks, smartphones, and wearables, capable of capturing their execution context. Context-oriented Programming (COP) allows developers to use layer abstractions to adapt software behavior to the context. A layer is associated with a context and can be dynamically activated in direct response to gathered information from its surrounding execution environment. However, most existing layer activation mechanisms have been tailored specifically to address a particular concern; implying that developers need to tweak layer definitions in contortive ways or create new specialized activation mechanisms altogether if their specific needs are not supported.\nObjective. Complementing ideas to expressively declare activation mechanism models with interfaces that define conditionals of activation mechanisms modularly, this paper proposes an Expressive and Modular Activation mechanism, named EMA.\nMethod. To propose EMA, we analyze existing activation mechanisms in COP regarding activation features and scope strategies. After, we propose the design of EMA and validate it with a case study discussion.\nConclusions. Our proposed mechanism allows developers to instantiate different activation scope strategies and interfaces to decouple the declaration of activation mechanism conditionals from the base code.\nThu 5 OctDisplayed time zone: Bogota, Lima, Quito, Rio Branco change\n15:30 - 17:00\n|Slicing Shared-Memory Concurrent Programs, The Threaded System Dependence Graph Revisited\n|An Expressive and Modular Layer Activation Mechanism for Context-Oriented Programming\nJournal First Track\nPaul Leger Universidad Cat\u00f3lica del Norte, Chile, Nicol\u00e1s Cardozo Universidad de los Andes, Hidehiko Masuhara Tokyo Institute of TechnologyLink to publication DOI\n|Dynamic Slicing of WebAssembly Binaries\nQuentin Sti\u00e9venart Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al (UQAM), David Binkley Loyola University Maryland, Coen De Roover Vrije Universiteit BrusselPre-print\n|OLA: Property Directed Outer Loop Abstraction for Efficient Verification of Reactive Systems\n|A Component-Sensitive Static Analysis Based Approach for Modeling Intents in Android Apps"}

+{"text": "Everywhere you go, everyone has a \u201cnew\u201d way of doing something. Everything has to be faster, better, and more supreme than the proven way of making money. This is why so many people fail, because they think they can just put up a website, put their link into an autoblaster, and get rich overnight. It doesn\u2019t work like that. Even worst is when people join an affiliate network, sign up to promote a particular product, and then just blast their affiliate link all over the place.\nAnd yes, there are high priced internet marketing training programs that advise this kind of marketing. It\u2019s frightening isn\u2019t it? It makes new age marketers like myself look bad and frowned upon, because my methods work, and it doesn\u2019t take a genius to implement them and see results. Whenever you come across an internet marketing training program, you have to keep an eye out for a few things.\nYou should look to see if the person has something free to offer you \u2013 to sample. This way you can \u201ctest drive\u201d their expertise, and take a peek to see what they have to say. Then you should be able to take what you\u2019ve learned from their free sample, and be able to apply it to your business. This is crucial, because just because you pay for an internet marketing program, doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re going to learn the important stuff.\nThere\u2019s a well-known marketer online (who\u2019s name I won\u2019t disclose) who had an online business program. He had tons of testimonials from people who used his strategies and were making thousands of dollars per month. Some of them were making thousands of dollars per day. Actually\u2026 some of them were making over $10,000 per day \u2013 and they attributed their success to this guy\u2019s course.\nSo I bought the course for $39 (out of intrigue), and what did I find? I found a glorified sales pitch to purchase his $995 \u201cadvanced course\u201d about making executive marketing recruiters money on the internet. The material in the course that I bought only talked about why most people aren\u2019t making money online, and how people promote products that they want to promote \u2013 INSTEAD of selling what people are looking for.\nWho doesn\u2019t know that? What business owner would sell something that nobody desires? This is simple market research. So I bought the $39 course and was highly disappointed, and quite mad because of the testimonials that I saw that were associated with this course. So these are some of the games and gimmicks some of the new age \u201cgurus\u201d like to play in order to boost their bank account, and take advantage of people.\nSo this was certainly not the best internet marketing training program I\u2019ve seen. The old age internet marketer\u2019s actually delivered when it came to value, and that is why they are legendary and are in the \u201chall of fame\u201d of marketing. Nowadays you can go to YouTube and find over 100 gurus who have an internet marketing \u201csuccess system\u201d that is unique from everybody else\u2019s. If you take a look at the ads, they all sound the same. And when you buy the products, most of them is just rehashed information.\nThere are a lot internet marketing training programs on the internet, and you can\u2019t trust just anybody. If you\u2019re going to follow someone, make sure they have a real website \u2013 and not just an ugly affiliate link. Make sure they have an email newsletter that you can subscribe to and learn from. Make sure they have training articles and free materials that you can learn from. Make sure you can reach them by email and via social media. And make sure they are current and on top of the latest trends in the internet marketing industry."}

+{"text": "Monday, July 30, 2007\nPostcards from Congress\nMuch has been made of Iraqi lawmakers taking a long vacation in the midst of chaos.\nSome have also questioned the August recess of our own noble US legislators. In the midst of a war spiraling out of control, a collapsing Department of Justice, a continuing attempt to consolidate power by the Executive Branch, an ongoing threat to our civil liberties, I think it would be appropriate for the House and Senate to abbreviate their August hiatus.\nWhat harm would come in shortening their journey back to their home territories. I doubt there would be many complaints from constituents who want something done about the war, the Attorney General, the President and yes, when the Bear starts sliding, our economy.\nIn Connecticut, we know our Senators will be out of touch. Dodd's on his quixotic run for President, so he'll likely be visiting other home territories, and Creepy Joe Lieberman, he'll pop up in places he knows folks won't scream at him. Don't expect to find Creepy Joe at the local diner. He doesn't need your vote this year.\nAs for our Representatives, sure they deserve a week or two to visit Hammonasset, but will they be doing the work of the people for a month, or will it be junkets and margaritas on the Vineyard?\nSometime this week, give your representative a call and ask them to shorten the traditional Congressional break (instituted, by the way, in a time before air conditioning when DC was a fetid swamp in August...oh right, air conditioning hasn't changed that), and return to the life or death work that waits on their desks. At the very least, ask for a schedule of what your representative will be doing in August. Maybe they'll send you a postcard."}
+{"text": "Gun \u201cbuy back\u201d programs (which are ill named as you can\u2019t buy something back unless you previously owned it) are one of the dumbest ideas that government agencies have ever conjured up to fight crime. Anybody with working cognitive capabilities could tell you that criminals aren\u2019t the ones who will turn in their firearms for the measly offering made by the state. Well it appears as though one police department has figured out that many guns that have been turned in are actually non-functional shit. That\u2019s their claimed reason for offering less money at least although I\u2019d say it\u2019s likely they are just getting cheap:\nInstead of offering $50 per gun, the city will pay $50 per person.\nThis is being done to discourage people who might misuse the program as a way to unload defective weapons, said Martha Earnhardt, a spokeswoman for the Montgomery Department of Public Safety. A news release about the buyback program states that the city specifically forbids gun dealers from participating in the buyback.\nIf you have a firearm you wish to rid yourself of be smart and sell it to somebody who will give you fair market value for it. Most firearms are worth more than $50.00 and frankly I find the actions being performed by departments doing these gun \u201cbuy back\u201d programs to be fraudulent. They are taking advantage of people who haven\u2019t a clue what firearms are worth which is something the state often decries when private individuals do it.\nPersonally I find handing over completely broken and non-fixable firearms to the state a great idea. It\u2019s kind of like getting stolen money back, you dump a broken gun and receive $50.00 of your taxpayer money back. On top of that no functional firearm is needlessly destroyed.\nA tip of the hat goes to The Truth About Guns for bringing this article to light."}

She started out in vet school because of her focus on biology and nature in general after being apart of an experimental surgery for a heart defect at as a child. However, quickly realized that it wasn\u2019t for her. After her first year of college, another divorce in the family, and her step father suffering a stroke she found herself with no motivation, no money and no job.\nAfter dropping out, 6 months of job hunting ensued. During this time she started painting and drawing, picking random colors and just scribbling to see what came out. Eventually she found a job as a cashier at the local co-op which would solidify that art was her path and throw her into even more situation that inspired growth. She made her first sales to people there and many of the other employees were artists which gave her hope. Fast forward a few years after leaving a toxic relationship, COVID came about. This gave her the time to really focus on art and the space to discover she is Autistic and ADHD, springing her to change her life and how she goes about handling the chaos of it all. She got her degree in marketing management, moved to help her stepfather, and started making art her main focus.\nShe now owns three businesses. RudeMaye is the main focus which is a collection of her work. She also makes natural stone aquarium decor and is a billing specialist for therapists. Her love of color is very apparent in her work and lifestyle, focusing her interests on ethereal creations that incorporate historical, scientific, and natural references. She enjoys painting the \u201cotherness\u201d of people in surreal portraiture and creating abstract or geometric backgrounds for them to land on. Funny enough she still likes to pick colors at random, she\u2019s a firm believer that art makes itself to some degree. As she says:\n\u201cIt always works out. The random colors consistently create something unexpected and end up being cohesive. I just have to figure out how they want to be applied, although sometimes they do it for themselves. The amount of random spills and paint bottle explosions that turn into amazing things is shocking. If you roll with the punches beautiful things can happen.\u201d"}

And so it came as it had to come. The trained watchmaker noticed that the process of cleaning watches and their small parts was laborious. And so it made sense for him to build a product. This was the birth of his own company, the Factory of Electrical Machines, Elma. His first product, the Elma Super Elite, paved the way for the young company\u2019s success. The name Elma became a household word among watchmakers, and today there is hardly a watchmaker who does not know Elma.\nElma\u2019s success story started in Singen (Hohentwiel) and developed continuously over the years. In the early 1960s, the first successful steps were taken in the field of ultrasonic technology, the core competence of today\u2019s Elma.

+{"text": "Residential Playground Swing Parts\nResidential swing sets are a classic part of most playground set-ups, as it appeals to a wide range of ages.\nFrom traditional swings to trapeze bars and rings, backyard swing sets can be much more than the old image you might conjure when you hear the term. Swing sets are the backbone of the modern residential playground, including everything from discs to teeter totters.\nOne of the top reasons to invest in a backyard swing set is the modular nature of its construction. Rather than buying an entire playset, swings can be put together component by component. Rather than dropping big money on heavy duty swing set kits, take the time to shop around and design the swing set of your dreams from scratch.\nHere\u2019s what you need:\nConnectors: This is the component that links your seat to the suspension chain and the suspension chain to the hanger. We recommend the Clevis Shackle over the typical S-hooks as it guarantees safety and long-lasting durability\nChain: This is where the fun comes from. A galvanized steel chain is the safest and most cost-efficient method for long-term swing set optimization.\nSwing Hanger: This component helps to reduce friction by eliminating contact between the chains and the support rails. We recommend the Clevis Pendulum for maximum safety and range of motion.\nOf course, you will need a base structure with a support rail. In the old days, it was common for rope swings to be tied directly to a tree branch. These days, there are far safer (and more fun) options for your kids.\nAnother main benefit of residential swing sets is the easy maintenance.\nThe main challenge associated with swing sets upkeep is rust. Galvanized steel and aluminum are exceptionally impervious to rust and decay, and most modern swing sets for sale are going to be made primarily from these materials. For all other types of metal, Zinc additives are a great method for combating rust. Owners of metal swing sets should take additional measures to ensure any moving parts are regularly oiled and greased.\nIf your backyard playground equipment is wood-based, then you will need to apply extra layers of protective paint, as weather and general exposure will wear upon wooden structures over time.\nWhile the safety regulations for residential swing sets are not nearly as strict and carefully defined as rules for commercial manufacturers, there are still guidelines, presented by the CPSC. that should be taken into account when designing your backyard playscape.\nIt is advised that swings with limited sideways motion have a lateral use zone of 8\u201d, while swings such as disc swings increase that clearance to 24\u201d. It is also highly recommended that at least 8\u201d is left between the swing seat and the ground surfacing."}
+{"text": "Prediction No. 1: Jarrett Allen is discussed but not traded\nIf Donovan Mitchell stays put, then Jarrett Allen is the largest domino with a chance to fall; that's not a reference to his prodigious height, but rather to his standing as one of the core four players this roster was built around. It's easy to forget that Allen made an All-Star Game two seasons ago.\nAllen is the anchor of the Cavaliers' defense, and there is no question that he and Evan Mobley together reach a defensive height that they cannot reach apart. Allen's size and positioning inside make it possible for Mobley to be a dangerous roamer in space and a devastating weakside shot-blocker.\nThe issue is of course on offense, where both Mobley and Allen are purely interior scorers. Mobley floating to the corner doesn't worry defenses one bit, and he has decreased his already-low number of midrange jumpers. Both Allen and Mobley are gifted interior scorers, but when both are on the court it strangles Cleveland's offense. It's possible, if not likely, that the Cavs cannot reach their playoff ceiling with both Mobley and Allen in the starting lineup.\nThe Cavaliers see this, and while they still believe in the pairing, they will continue to ask hard questions about the future of the team. That will include real trade discussions with other teams about the possibility of trading Jarrett Allen. Could the Cavs get back a combo forward to pair with Mobley? Do they target 3-and-D help on the perimeter? Allen as a center won't fetch a return commensurate with his talent level, but the Cavaliers could get a better balance in their starting lineup and rotation from moving Allen.\nUltimately, however, the inability to gain more data on the Allen-Mobley pairing before the Trade Deadline (Mobley isn't expected back until sometime later in February at the earliest) and the belief in this team's defensive upside will stay the Cavaliers' hand. Jarrett Allen and all five of this team's starters will be staying put at this year's Trade Deadline."}
+{"text": "Successful prediction of the future performance of condensate reservoirs requires accurate values of dew point pressures of the interesting reservoirs. Although the dew point pressure can be determined experimentally from collected laboratory samples, these measurements are frequently not available. In these cases, fluid reservoir properties are determined with the use of empirical correlations or determined iteratively using an equation of state (EOS).\nThe objective of this paper is to present an application of genetic programming (GP)-Orthogonal Least Squares algorithm (OLS) to generate linear-in-parameters dew point pressure model represented by tree structures. The GP-OLS based gas condensate reservoir dew point pressure model was generated as a function of reservoir fluid composition (in terms of mol fractions of methane through heptanes-plus, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulphide, and the molecular weight of the heptanes-plus fraction), and reservoir temperature. The new model was developed using experimentally measurements of 245 gas condensate systems covering a wide range of gas properties and reservoir temperatures. One hundred-thirty five gas condensate systems that not introduced in building the new model were used to test and validate it against the other early published correlations. The validity test shows that the new model is more accurate than the other tested correlations, whereas the new model has the lowest average absolute relative error. Therefore, the new model can be considered an alternative method to estimate the dew point pressure when the experimentally measurement is not available."}
+{"text": "There are 24 different letters in the first cipher text and 24 different letter in the second one.\nThere are 42504 (24!/((24-5)! 5!)) possibilities to choose 5 letters from set of 24 different letters.\nSo this problem is solvable by the most basic brute-force checking all 42504 possibilities.\nEach possibility is represented by a ciphertext from which 5 different letters has been removed.\n(each 5-letter set represents possible guess for camouflage letters of which we get rid off)\nWe do not have to solve both ciphertexts, because if we found solution for the first one, then using same key for decryption we can decipher also the second one.\nSo there are 42504 possibilities to check for possible monoalphabetic substitution.\nI think it is possible to solve it by brute-force.\nAnother way to solve it:\nThe camouflage alphabet is very short compared to the plaintext alphabet. The shorter the camouflage alphabet is the bigger number of occurrence there is for particular letter of camouflage.\nFor example if camouflage alphabet was only one letter long, say \"a\", than to camouflage whole text we need to use it many times, which increase its occurrence it the ciphertext, so it means that the letter with the most frequency of occurrence would be with high probability the camouflage one.\nHere we have camouflage alphabet of length 5, which means that there is high probability that letters that represents camouflage are among the more frequent letters.\nOther way said, letters in ciphertext with small frequency are most likely the meaningful one (i.e. not camouflage). But there is still chance that, say ,one letter of camouflage can occur among the letters of small frequency.\nSo we count occurrence of letters of both ciphertexts separately, then choose upper bound for occurrence, say 3, and we presume that all characters that occur less or equal to 3 are the meaningful one.\nOther way said, we presume that all camouflage letter are among letters of occurrence 4 or more.\nSo we have two sets\u2026 one set represents most frequent letters from first cipher text and second one from second ciphertext.\nWe know that both ciphertext contain same letters of camouflage, so we make an intersection of the mentioned two sets. This intersection reduces the possibilities of letters from we have to choose 5 letters that represents camouflage.\nSo now we do not have to check all 42504 cases, but we reduced it to number slightly bigger than 100 possibilities to check. (we do not have to choose 5 from 24, but 5 from much smaller number)\nNow we can use brute-force attack only on those reduced set.\nBut we have additional information that there is a word of same spelling in both ciphertexts and we know that plaintexts have same meaning so it is probable that there are words in English which have their equivalents in German. All this additional should help you to find the solution even without a brute-force.\nHope it is understandable. My Explanation in English is limited.\nIf this was not enough then I will disclose one letter of camouflage, but I hope this would not be necessary."}

+{"text": "- Kids & Teens\n- Programs & Events\n- Gift Cards\n- My Account\nBefore a surfing accident caused thirty-three-year-old Devon Raney to lose all but 15 percent of his vision, he had already lived an extraordinary life. Time and again he'd gone against the grain to maximize time for his passions--surfing, skateboarding, and snowboarding--bringing him into the direct path of colorful characters, unexpected adventures, and even the occasional brush with death. Through it all, Devon's commitment to outdoor adventure never wavered. If anything, he learned to approach the other commitments he would make in life--as a husband and as a father--with the same passion and dedication he'd applied to board sports.\nSo when facing a devastating mid-life challenge, Devon once again went against the grain -- sideways. Instead of retreating into a life made smaller by the things he could no longer do--drive, build houses, read to his young daughter--Devon resolved to keep his commitments to the same passions that had defined and sustained him. Using his remaining peripheral vision, he developed a style of tandem snowboarding, figured out how to read the waves, and carried himself through his daily life in such a way that few people other than his close friends and family were aware of his vision loss.\nStill Sideways makes the case for the sustaining power of nature for a new generation of outdoor enthusiasts: the late Gen X / early millennial generation that has one foot firmly in adulthood and the other foot buckled into a binding. Readers will relate to Devon's stubborn refusal to organize his life around convention and will be inspired by how his dogged devotion to shredding brings him salvation, not comeuppance, when it all hits the fan. A must-read for any mid-life adventurer, Still Sideways intersperses a gripping narrative of Devon's incredible decade and flashbacks of formative experiences from his youth and young adulthood with humor, candor, and authenticity."}

+{"text": "Our attorneys have filed a mass tort lawsuit on behalf of individuals who took the blood thinner Xarelto (rivaroxaban) and suffered severe bleeding events. Pharmaceutical companies, including the makers of Xarelto, have a duty to ensure that their drugs are reasonably protected for use \u2013 and failure to complete so may possibly be grounds for compensation. Our lawyers are operating challenging to have those hurt by the drug the compensation they are entitled to.\nWhilst bleeding is actually a typical complication connected with anticoagulants, it has been alleged that Xarelto is a lot more dangerous than standard blood thinners since no antidote exists to reverse its blood-thinning effects. This indicates that, inside the occasion of an emergency, individuals may be at danger for irreversible bleeding problems, including life-threatening internal and gastrointestinal hemorrhaging.\nShould you or perhaps a loved one suffered a serious bleeding event soon after taking Xarelto, you might have legal recourse. For much more information, get in touch with us these days to have your case reviewed, cost-free of charge.\nxarelto-compensation-photoThe plaintiffs in these lawsuits are looking for compensation from Bayer and Janssen for previous and future health-related bills, lost wages, discomfort and suffering and, in circumstances of death, funeral expenditures. Moreover, they are looking for punitive damages, that are generally awarded to punish the defendant and deter other firms from acting similarly.\nWhy Are Lawsuits Becoming Filed?\nBayer and Johnson & Johnson\u2019s Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. are facing several xarelto heart valve lawsuits alleging that the drug is unsafe and defective. The plaintiffs claim that, unlike classic anticoagulants (e.g. warfarin, Coumadin) whose blood-thinning effects can be reversed using vitamin K, there is no antidote available for Xarelto. Due to the fact of this, the lawsuits claim, doctors have no effective implies of stopping Xarelto users from bleeding within the event of an emergency. Plaintiffs within the lawsuits allege significant and fatal injuries, like cerebral hemorrhaging and gastrointestinal bleeds, from use of the drug.\nIn addition to these risks, lawsuits against Bayer and Johnson & Johnson\u2019s Janssen Pharmaceuticals are alleging:\nThe manufacturers of Xarelto marketed the drug as a superior in the field of anticoagulants despite studies finding higher rates of gastrointestinal (GI tract) bleeding and transfusions in Xarelto users than users of certain competitors.\nThe makers of the drug continue to market Xarelto as a safe anticoagulant option.\nDoctors and healthcare staff were not properly made aware of methods to stabilize and treat a Xarelto user within the occasion of a bleeding complication.\nUsers of Xarelto were not adequately warned of the health risks of suffering a fatal bleeding event.\nXarelto is linked to critical bleeding complications, excessive blood loss, intracranial hemorrhaging, eye bleeding (vitreous hemorrhage), stomach bleeding, gastrointestinal bleeding, wound infections from inhibited clotting, and lack of effectiveness in preventing harmful clotting.\nVisit this page for much more info on the alleged health risks of Xarelto.\nMultidistrict Litigation Trial Dates Set\nThe attorneys within the Complex Litigation Group have filed lawsuits on behalf of injured clients.

+{"text": "When astronomers cast their telescope towards an infant star, they were surprised to find that it was nursing a smaller stellar companion within its massive stellar disk. The amazing discovery marks the first time scientists have observed a star forming out of the fragmented disk of another.\nMega star and mini star\nSome solar systems have two stars \u2014 they generally have a common center of gravity around which planets, asteroids, and other celestial bodies orbit. Such binary systems are quite common in the universe and astronomers believe that they usually form from the same molecular cloud.\nOnce a star or binary system settles, it starts forming planets out of the dense disk of gas and dust that surrounds them. Imagine the surprise of astronomers from the University of Leeds when they zoomed in on a young star called MM 1a and found a much smaller star, MM1b, lurking in the outer accretion disk where planets should normally form.\n\u201cStars form within large clouds of gas and dust in interstellar space,\u201d said Dr. Ilee, from the School of Physics and Astronomy at Leeds, said in a statement.\n\u201cWhen these clouds collapse under gravity, they begin to rotate faster, forming a disc around them. In low mass stars like our Sun, it is in these discs that planets can form.\u201d\n\u201cIn this case, the star and disc we have observed is so massive that, rather than witnessing a planet forming in the disc, we are seeing another star being born.\u201d\nThe astronomers used turned to the Atacama Large Millimetre/submillimetre Array (ALMA), nested atop the Chilean desert, to spot the unusual stellar pairing. This unique instrument exploits a phenomenon called interferometry which enables 66 individual dishes to mimic the power of a single telescope with a theoretical diameter of 4 kilometers.\nThe researchers were able to calculate the mass of both stars by measuring the amount of radiation emitted by the fragmented disk, as well as the very subtle shifts in the frequency of light emitted by disk\u2019s gas. They found that MM 1a is 40 times more massive than the Sun while its companion star, MM 1b, weighs less than half the mass of the Sun.\nBinary stars are often very similar in mass, meaning they likely formed as siblings. In this particular case, the mass ratio of the two stars is 80 to 1, clearly suggesting an entirely different process of formation for the two cosmic objects.\nThe British researchers came to the conclusion that the most favorable formation process for MM1b is in the outer regions of the massive accretion disk. In this outmost region, the disk can be gravitationally unstable, thereby collapsing under its own weight, forming a new star.\nWhat\u2019s more, the researchers believe that the small, young star could be surrounded by an accretion disk, which could lead to the formation of planets of its own. That\u2019s a hypothesis that will need to be verified by subsequent observations. But even if such planets are in the process of forming or already exist, they\u2019ll be shortlived.\n\u201cStars as massive as MM 1a only live for around a million years before exploding as powerful supernovae, so while MM 1b may have the potential to form its own planetary system in the future, it won\u2019t be around for long,\u201d Dr. Ilee said.\nThe rare binary system was described in the Astrophysical Journal Letters.\nWas this helpful?"}
+{"text": "\u2018What is civil litigation\u2019 is a question everyone but lawyers ask. Litigation refers to the process of resolving a dispute in court. Civil disputes focus on wrongs, which are not criminal in nature and civil lawsuits and civil lawyers are dealing with issues that are not classified as crimes. A typical civil lawsuit deals with issues such as a breach of contract or negligence and covers a wide range of law categories whether it\u2019s injury, business, employment or other.\nFor example, there was a dispute between a Falmouth landowner against the Town of Falmouth and the Falmouth Conservation Commission. The land was a beautiful spot with water views of Buzzards Bay and one of the last undeveloped lots in a residential area that was inherited by the landowner after being in the family since 1975. The landowner applied for permission to build a small home but was denied for the reason that the application didn\u2019t comply with the Conservation Commission\u2019s wetland regulations.

If our manager sees a new employee struggling a little bit, she approves them to carry on their orientation period longer. I remember one time we had one employee who stayed on orientation for six months.\nThat gives you a small example of how supportive our department and managers are.\nWhat makes your Sharp Experience unique?\nWhat makes Sharp different from other facilities within our area is the fact that they have a mission. And that mission is to create a patient-centered environment.\nI have learned to foster a lot of good relationships with my peers. The things we do as nurses and the things we see throughout the day \u2014 our families don't quite understand what's going on out there.

They\u2019re not always by choice. But if you share custody or have visitation rights with children from a previous marriage, what\u2019s to stop your ex from leaving town-or the state-with your son and/or daughter?\nIt\u2019s probably something you\u2019ve worried about or dreaded. You want to maintain a close connection to your children. How can you do that when they\u2019re hundreds of miles away?\nWays to protect your rights\nThere are many laws regarding relocation, in order to protect both children and parents. Many people include a relocation clause as part of their divorce order so that everyone is clear about what is allowed in a specific case and what is not. If you are just beginning divorce proceedings and you think this may come up and want to include a clause, be sure to investigate your options by talking to a lawyer.\nYour ex will have to follow a prescribed course of action and do everything by the book in order to relocate with your child:\n- 60-day notice is required (there are exceptions, so check with a lawyer).\n- Parents cannot move the child during the first 30 days after giving this notice, unless there is a court order or proof that the non-custodial parent does not object to the move.\n- The parent is allowed to move away with the child after 30 days only if no objection is filed.\n- But if an objection is filed, the parent cannot move unless he/she receives a temporary order allowing the relocation while the case is sorted out.\nOne of the most important things for you to remember is that you have only 30 days to file an objection once you are informed of the desired move.\nYou can also petition to modify your parenting plan because of the relocation, or you can request a temporary order that would stop your child\u2019s move.\nThis wasn\u2019t the (parenting) plan\nIf you have a good, amicable relationship with your ex, it may work to talk things through yourselves and come up with a new parenting plan, ensuring you maintain your same visitation rights or add extended periods with the kids in order to compensate for not seeing them as often. Just as you\u2019re worried about the effects the move will have on your children, and your relationship with them, most likely so is your ex. No matter how hard the conversations may be, they\u2019re worth having.\nAs with the original parenting plan, the key thing to keep in focus is the best interests of the children. If you find you\u2019re not happy with the proposed arrangement or feel overwhelmed by the process, consult a lawyer.

Lasing pulses of the order of tens of microseconds were generated by passing the current pulses through a wiggler and resonator combination. The change in lasing power as a result of postsaturation variation of the energy of the electron beam during the lasing period is presented in this paper in the form of experimental measurements and simulations. In the experiments, the initial electron beam energy was 1.4 MeV and the current was 1.13 A, whilst the lasing frequency was always close to 102 GHz. It is shown that postsaturation, positively ramping the beam energy increases the radiation extraction efficiency by around 50%.

The two British destroyers were accompanying HMS Glorious on convoy. I also became aware of a huge conspiracy as to why 1531 servicemen were killed, and only 43 servicemen survived without Admiralty intervention.\nDuring the lockdown of 2020-2021, I decided to do some of my own research on the worst British naval catastrophe of WW2, and I began to write The Mystery Of Operation Alphabet to bring to life 8th June 1940. I did this by putting photographs on as many names of the war dead and survivors as possible to bring them to life too. I also wrote down stories from books and articles of what happened to the war dead and survivors in their own words, and also of their loved ones, rather than writing using my own words, as I wanted the servicemen to have their own voice.\nThe Mystery of Operation Alphabet has endless photos of the different ships, lists of the war dead, and also I have written down as many explanations and conspiracy theories as possible as to why the three ships were blown up and 1531 men were killed. I did this by bringing to light the opinions and theories of Admiralty, naval historians, government officials, and members of the GLARAC Association so you can make up your own minds as to what happened.\nOne of my main aims is to bring to light the bravery of commanders Barker and Glasfurd of HMS Ardent, and HMS Acasta, plus Nick Carter, leading seaman of HMS Acasta, the man who shot the Scharnhorst, to hopefully get the government to give these men military honour and recognition for what they did on 8th June 1940. Amazingly, even the commanders of the German battleships saluted the British ships HMS Glorious, HMS Ardent and especially HMS Acasta as they sunk in the Norwegian fjords to honour their bravery.\nLast but not least, I would like to uncover why the government has kept the ships\u2019 records under lock and key since 1940, and why they aren\u2019t going to be made public until 2040/41.\nSo why not read this interesting and intriguing book to find out more?\nElaine Merrikin Trimlett Glover."}

Two species of brown frog (Rana dalmatina and R. temporaria) and the common toad (Bufo bufo) were involved, all raised in the laboratory from fertilized eggs collected in their natural habitat. Taxonomic identification was confirmed by the DNA barcoding method with the 16S rRNA sequence as the gene marker. Interested to compare the methodologies for quantification and description of morphological differences among tadpoles of mentioned species, we aimed to: 1) calculate interspecies genetic distances as the most relevant measurement for species differentiation, 2) determine and describe size and shape variation, 3) identify relationships among the analyzed species at the morphological level and 4) assess their classification accuracy. Within the framework of the specified aims, both methodologies produced very similar results, i.e., the smallest divergence was between R. dalmatina and R. temporaria, while the most discriminative were B. bufo and R. temporaria. However, we observed subtle shape variation of the distal region of the tail that was detected only by the geometric morphometrics. Our findings support the following. Geometric morphometric method captures more subtle shape differences that were unable to be recovered from linear measurements. It performs slightly better in classification rate. Although it was not quantified, it stands to reason that there is no difference in time investment between the two approaches. Geometric morphometrics provides more information that can be leveraged to answer further questions and it has a clear advantage in visualizing."}

I help with the hard words if I can guess from her try at pronunciation what word it might be, and we go on the adventure together.\nMontgomery has an interesting concept. He has designed 38 different storylines in this one book. The first couple of pages are the set-up. We find out what the mystery is all about and get recruited to help. Then the first choice comes: \u201cIf you agree to go on tomorrow\u2019s plane for Paris, go on to the next page. If you demand more time, information, and extra help, turn to page nine.\u201d\nAnd so it goes. Every few pages there is a choice to be made.

To continue the story, you have to choose and choose again, yet you and the author work as a team to get you to the end, however deadly or delightful that end might be.\nBut remember, at any time, you can go back and make another choice. You can change the path of your story and affect its outcome. The new choice may take you over familiar ground for a while until you come to a turning point and a choice that changes everything.\nGod gave R.A. Montgomery the idea for this exciting series of books. God is an old hand at crafting adventure stories. He is the author of your life story, crafting both the beginning and the end. Your story starts in Love and ends in Love. You choose the many middle parts.\nYou never really know where your story will take you, but God the Author does. He is the one who has written the story. He is the one who imagined and planned it from the beginning. He knows every alternative offered. He knows every ending.\nAnd every one of those endings is designed to end you up in the lap of God. It is His design to have you for His own forever.\nYour life is an adventure that your choices write. The choices are daily\u2014sometimes difficult, sometimes delightful. They may seem accidental, coincidental, or random. In reality they were planned before you were born. You choose, and then God the Author takes over. God is committed to anyway that will bring you home in the end. He has written that part where you get saved by a hero who sacrifices his own well-being to preserve and prosper yours.\nIt is all through the narrative, all through the story. Hiding in every choice you are given is that Hero who is always there to save and love you.\nSo choose. Choose to come safely home. Bring others with you. Involve the world in your happy ending."}

(WAM)\nABU DHABI -The Abu Dhabi Stem Cell Centre (ADSCC) announced this week that it had succeeded in ramping up the number of coronavirus treatments from 73 in initial clinical trial.\nThis breakthrough comes following a decision by the Emirati government to make treatment available free of charge for all moderate-to-high risk COVID-19 patients in the country.\nA treatment, branded UAECell19, has previously demonstrated efficacy with no significant changes in adverse events reported, an absence of any unexpected serious reactions (such as anaphylaxis, allergies or sudden death) and no reports of any lung complications as determined by radiological exams from inhalation of the nebulised product.\nADSCC has now treated more than 2000 patients suffering from COVID-19, with 1200 already fully recovered from the effects of the virus.\nA team of doctors and researchers at ADSCC, led by doctor Yendry Ventura, announced in May they had developed a new treatment for COVID-19 patients.\nUAECell19, an autologous stem cells based therapy, appears to help the body fight the virus and make the disease less harmful.\nFollowing an initial trial, researchers were able to conclude that UAECell19 reduced the duration of hospitalisation from 22 days to just six, when compared to patients who had received standard treatment.\nFurther analyses revealed that patients treated with the stem cells were 3,1 times more likely to recover in less than seven days than those treated with standard therapy.\n67 percent of the patients who received the stem cells treatment owed their recovery to the new treatment.\nADSCC has since secured intellectual property rights protection for UAECell19, which opens the way for the treatment to be shared widely so more patients can benefit.\nADSCC said researchers are at various stages of several investigatory efforts to establish effectiveness (Phase 3 trial), optimal efficacy of dosage, and efficacy to treat other respiratory diseases such asthma, COPD, and cystic fibrosis.\nThese were the details of the news Abu Dhabi makes groundbreaking progress in stem cell treatment of COVID-19 for this day.

+{"text": "Organizational decision support systems (ODSS) are a new type of decision support systems (DSS) focusing on the organization wide issues rather than individual, group, or departmental issues. Because of its organization wide scope, a typical ODSS cuts across organizational functions or hierarchical layers. Thus, seamless integration with organization's diverse IS applications running on heterogeneous platforms becomes a critical issue for building a successful ODSS. We analyze the Korea Telecom (KT)'s Operations and Maintenance (O&M) division focusing on its investment strategies. We develop a conceptual framework which links O&M investment decisions to performance of its operational branches across the nation. In this framework, performance of each local branch is evaluated on two dimensions: quality of service (QOS) and difficulty of the local operating environment (CDI: context difficulty index). This approach will enable O&M management to explicate the major causes behind differences in service quality among local branches and to determine proper scale and area of O&M investment for competing branches. To support the above framework, we also develop a prototype for the KTOM-ODSS with an EIS like user friendly interface. When a complete ODSS is implemented on top of various KT transaction processing systems, it will become a critical component of the O&M Integrated Decision Support Environment (IDSE).\n|Title of host publication\n|Information Systems - Organizational Systems and Technology\n|IEEE Computer Society\n|Number of pages\n|Published - 1996\n|29th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, HICSS 1996 - Wailea, United States\nDuration: 1996 Jan 3 \u2192 1996 Jan 6\n|Proceedings of the Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences\n|29th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, HICSS 1996\n|96/1/3 \u2192 96/1/6\nBibliographical notePublisher Copyright:\n\u00a9 1996 IEEE.\nAll Science Journal Classification (ASJC) codes\n- General Engineering"}
+{"text": "James Tubbs: the turbulent life of the great bow maker and master of the English school\nEnglish bow maker James Tubbs (1835-1921) is seen as the only European master bow maker who was able to create an independent tradition that could hold its own against the great French tradition of the 19th century. James Tubbs was the greatest member of a family with a five-generation history of bow making, and at the same time, James Tubbs, sometimes dubbed the \u201cEnglish Tourte\u201d, was also the embodiment of the English school alongside his legendary predecessor John Dodd.\nJames Tubbs early years: William II. Tubbs and W. E. Hill & Sons\nJames Tubbs was born in London on 25 March 1835, the eldest of eleven children in a poor family that had eked out a meagre living for two generations with its bow making. James Tubbs grew up in a part of town that inspired Charles Dickens' depictions of poverty in Oliver Twist. He learned the trade of making bows from his father, William Tubbs, Jr. (1814-1878) and was probably either unemployed or a day labourer when he began working for W. E. Hill & Sons around 1858. The bows of the talented young master quickly won important awards for the highly esteemed company.\nJames Tubbs and the Hill bow\nTubbs worked for the Hills but in an atelier of his own, and it can be assumed that he was not their employee; instead, he had a tenuous arrangement in which the Hills provided him work. This may explain the minor scandal which James Tubbs caused in his later years: decades after working for the Hills, he managed to acquire some of the Hill bows he had created then and marked them his own seal.\nJames Tubbs own bow model\nDespite the difficult circumstances of his early career, James Tubbs successes allowed him to move to new addresses in London until he ultimately set up his workshop in Wardour Street No. 94 in the 1870s. Immediately before this last move, he had finally begun working for himself; he developed his own bow model that did not deny its debt to Tourte but was still a stand-alone achievement in the history of European bow making.\nJames Tubbs most successful years\nTubbs celebrated his greatest accomplishments in the 1880s, when he built bows for famous musicians such as August Wilhelmj and was appointed the court bow maker for the Duke of Edinburgh. In the 1890s, he continued to refine the design of his bow by integrating the mathematic findings of W. S. B. Woolhouse, who \u2013 much like Vuillaume's studies on Tourte \u2013 recommended applying a logarithmic to the stick. On his birthdays, James Tubbs crafted especially elaborate, gold- and silver-mounted bows with artistic engravings and inlays; between 1876 and 1910, similar pieces were presented as prizes to the best students at the London Guildhall School and the Royal Academy of Music.\nJames Tubbs son Alfred\nIn 1891, his then 28-year-old son Alfred joined the company, which was subsequently renamed James Tubbs and Son. Around the turn of the century, Tubbs senior retired to Ashford near Staines, leaving the family business to Alfred and working on only the occasional bow. After Alfred's sudden death on 3 November 1911, James Tubbs returned to his atelier for a few years; one reason for resuming work was to help support his daughter-in-law, who in turn took care of the ageing master until his death in 1921.\nW.E.

+{"text": "This vulnerability assessment is an initial science-based effort to identify how and why focal resources (ecosystems, species populations, and ecosystem services) across the Sierra Nevada region are likely to be affected by future climate conditions. This assessment centers on the Sierra Nevada region of California, from foothills to crests, including ten national forests and two national parks. Twenty\u2010seven focal resources including eight ecosystems, populations of fifteen species, and four ecosystem services were identified as important by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) as part of their forest plan revision process or by Sierra Nevada stakeholders and are considered in this assessment. Vulnerabilities of these resources were evaluated during the Vulnerability Assessment Workshop (held March 5-7, 2013); resources included 8 ecosystems (alpine/subalpine, yellow pine/mixed conifer, red fir, wet meadows and fens, oak woodlands, chaparral, sagebrush, and aquatic), 15 species (fisher, marten, bighorn sheep, wood rat, willow flycatcher, mountain quail, sage grouse, Sierra Nevada yellow-legged frog, mountain yellow-legged frog, red fir, blue oak, black oak, whitebark pine, bristlecone pine, and aspen), and 4 ecosystem services (timber and wood products, carbon, fire, and recreation).\nThe vulnerability assessment results are comprised of evaluations and comments from a participant breakout group during the workshop, peer-review comments following the workshop from at least one additional expert in the subject area, and relevant references from the literature. The resulting documents are not comprehensive; rather they are an initial evaluation of vulnerability based on existing information and expert input. They are intended to be living documents that can be revised and expanded upon as new information becomes available.\nThe overarching goal is to help resource managers and stakeholders plan their management of these focal resources in light of a changing climate. Specifically, this information can facilitate priority setting for management action and responses, helping to sustain optimal conditions for and productivity of focal resources.\nClick on title to download individual files attached to this item.\nOriginal ISO Metadata"}

This is very interesting and some research has gone into these particular chapters as the author describes the daily lives of those serving and the barrack routines at that time. Of particular interest is the cavalry trooper\u2019s preparation for inspection and the \u2018spit and polish\u2019 required for various parades.\nThe book also takes in turbulent periods in our nation\u2019s history such as the Rising, the War of Independence, the Civil War and the handing over of the barracks to the National Army. The decades that followed are also covered, with the history continuing up to modern-day.\nDaly has enlisted military historian and a regular contributor to An Cosant\u00f3ir, Paul O\u2019Brien, whose writing skills make this publication a very easy and enjoyable read.\nBoth authors, Daly and O\u2019Brien, must be commended for this work and I hope that this book, it\u2019s content and layout, will be a template for future barrack histories as a series is long overdue."}

+{"text": "Naniwa is known for making quality water stones. The Naniwa Standard Traditional Water Stone is no exception. If you're looking for a quality water stone, the Naniwa Traditional is a great value.\nThe Naniwa Standard Traditional Water Stones are an excellent balance between price and features. You still get the quality and attention that Naniwa gives all their stones but don't have to pay the higher price of their more expensive lines of stones. Unlike the Super Stones (now called Sharpening Stones) these have a traditional water stone bond, the tradition bond absorbs water and thus requires soaking before use. The coarser grits readily absorb water quite readily while the 8000 grit very slowly absorbs water.\nEach stone measures 8 1/4\" long, 2 3/4\" wide and 3/4\" thick. The stone is thick enough to provide many years of sharpening.\nMade in Japan.\nKit Include following grits:\n220 Extra Coarse Grit - This grit is excellent for establishing a new bevel angle on a tool or knife. We also recommend it for sharpening extremely dull or nicked blades. The 220 grit sharpens very quickly.\n1500 Medium Fine Grit - This stone is fine enough for many applications. In the kitchen, this stone will leave your knife with an edge better than many factory edges. At this grit size, this stone is considerably finer than many stones marked \"fine\" that you will find in stores.\n8000 Extremely Fine Grit - This white stone is extremely fine. This is a wonderful final stage for most knives or tool edges. It differs in feel and cost from the rest of the line of Naniwa Traditional Water Stones. It technically does absorb water, but not absorb water like the other stones in the line, this stone polishes well and is worthy of the difference in price."}

However, models commonly found in the literature are too general and neglect imperfections in the windings. Aiming to predict the stimulation sites in patients requires precise modeling of the electric field (E-field), and a proper calibration to adequate to the empirical data of the particular coil employed. Furthermore, most fabricators do not provide precise information about the coil geometries, and even using X-ray images may lead to subjective interpretations. We measured the three components of the vector magnetic field induced by a TMS figure-8 coil with spatial resolutions of up to 1 mm. Starting from a computerized tomography-based coil model, we applied a multivariate optimization algorithm to automatically modify the original model and obtain one that optimally fits the measurements. Differences between models were assessed in a human brain mesh using the finite-elements method showing up to 6% variations in the E-field magnitude. Our calibrated model could increase the precision of the estimated E-field induced in the brain during TMS, enhance the accuracy of delivered stimulation during functional brain mapping, and improve dosimetry for repetitive TMS.\"\nCALIBRACION, CAMPOS MAGNETICOS, MAPEO CEREBRAL"}

Rapid changes to care pathways and processes needed for protection of staff and patients may be facilitated by a translational simulation approach-diagnosing changes needed, developing and testing new processes and then embedding new systems and teamwork through training. However, there are also practical constraints on running in situ simulations during a pandemic-the need for physical distancing, rigorous infection control for manikins and training equipment and awareness of heightened anxiety among simulation participants. We describe our institution's simulation strategy for COVID-19 preparation and reflect on the lessons learned-for simulation programs and for health services seeking to utilise translational simulation during and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic. We offer practical suggestions for a translational simulation strategy and simulation delivery within pandemic constraints. We also suggest simulation programs develop robust strategies, governance and relationships for managing change within institutions-balancing clinician engagement, systems engineering expertise and the power of translational simulation for diagnosing, testing and embedding changes."}
+{"text": "January 4 marks the first birthday of the Food Safety Modernization Act. I imagine most manufacturers that produce, market or import petfood to the US aren\u2019t celebrating the milestone, because the new law means new regulations to comply with, along with the added costs of doing so (including myriad new fees from the Food and Drug Administration).\nIt might help to know, however, that a 2011 study showed US consumers would be willing to spend collectively US$4,500 to US$6,000 to prevent each case of short-term illness caused by contaminated food. The study, conducted by Kevin Haninger and James Hammitt of the Harvard Center for Risk Analysis and originally published in Risk Analysis International Journal, addressed human food safety, but the results would probably extend to petfood, at least on a smaller scale.\nReported in the October edition of FSMeDigest from Food Safety Magazine (www.foodsafetymagazine.com/article.asp?id=4363&sub=sub1#Article1), the study started with the seemingly simple goal of examining the \u201cmonetary value that consumers place on a safer food supply,\u201d the authors wrote. Of course, doing so in a scientifically and statistically sound way gets pretty complex and detailed, and the article provides an overview of all that, including the two main methods or metrics for examining the valuation consumers put on safe food.\nOn its own, the finding that 2,858 randomly selected US adults are willing to pay more for safer human foods is important, though it should be emphasized that the amounts cited are collective. But the authors said their methods can lead to an estimate of what individuals would be willing to pay.\nFor the petfood industry, perhaps the critical implication in this study is the reason for conducting it in the first place. \u201cFederal agencies are required to assess the costs and benefits of major regulations they develop to reduce the risks of foodborne illnesses,\u201d the authors wrote. \u201cAccording to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about one in six Americans (or 48 million people) become ill from such an illness each year. By estimating the individual willingness to pay to reduce these risks, analysts can determine whether the benefits of regulations exceed the costs imposed on consumers, food producers and others.\u201d\nIn light of FSMA and its new regulations, this cost-benefit requirement is significant. Will that apply to buyers and producers of petfood, too? Will petfood manufacturers who have to make investments to comply with new regulations be able to access evidence, ideally provided by FDA, that the benefits justify the costs? And will that evidence be available in such a way that you can communicate it to consumers and potentially reap benefits yourselves via increased petfood sales?\nBecause, judging by the overwhelming consumer response to the 2007 melamine-related petfood recalls\u2014which in turn has led to a continuing explosion of websites, blogs and other Internet forums touting so-called experts and expertise on petfood and pet nutrition\u2014pet owners would very likely welcome marketing messages and other information that includes such evidence of safer petfood. And hopefully, they would put their money where many of them say their hearts are: providing the best, safest, most wholesome nutrition for their pets."}

With this case study, the modularity and adaptability of the framework, originally intended for city-scale simulations, are tested on a large facility venue. As a proof of concept, several statistical techniques and an agent-based simulation platform are coupled to simulate a crowd in the stadium, and a process of four steps is followed to build the case study. Both the conceptual (interdomain) and technical (domain specific) layers of the digital twin are defined and connected in a nonlinear process so that they represent the complexity of the object to be simulated. &e result obtained is a strategy to build a digital twin from the domain point of view, paving the way for more complex, more ambitious simulators\nCitationMeta, I.

Oracle compresses a block in batch mode rather than compressing data every single time a write operation takes place. A newly initialized block remains uncompressed until data in the block reaches an internally controlled threshold.

+{"text": "If you\u2019re a business professional, entrepreneur or marketer, then hopefully you are taking time from work to spend with your loved ones this holiday season. While work is definitely a value in life, family and friends matter even more, because they give us people to share it with.\nHowever, some people and companies often fail to see the value in time away from work\u2014even during the holidays. This could not be further from the truth. In fact, objective studies have shown the positive effect time off can have on a person\u2019s work. To explain, we developed six benefits of time off for the holidays.\n1. Closer family relationships.\nOne major benefit from taking time off of work is more family bonding time to build closer family relationships. When workers spend genuine, quality time with their loved ones, they establish closer relationships overall, which can actually influence their work. Family time together\u2014such as over the holidays\u2014can increase family bonding and establish positive familial ties. This makes workers happier, healthier and more focused during their work hours.\n2. Mental reset.\nOf course, taking time off during the holidays is also a great mental reset for workers. When employees are constantly stuck in work mode, their brains can feel overwhelmed with stress, anxiety or information with everything going on. However, having time to relax and clear their heads gives employees the rest they need to mentally reset during the holidays.\n3. More productivity.\nNot to mention, this mental reset often results in more productivity when employees return to work after the holidays. According to The New York Times, \u201cThe importance of restoration is rooted in our physiology. Human beings aren\u2019t designed to expend energy continuously. Rather, we\u2019re meant to pulse between spending and recovering energy.\u201d Simply put, when employees take time off, they come back more ready-than-ever to work hard.\n4. Better work/life balance.\nNumerous researchers and studies have discussed the importance of a healthy work/life balance. When employees have time off from work, they re-establish their identities as people, rather than just workers. This balance makes us feel more holistic, relaxed and capable of performing well in all areas of our lives.\n5. Increased creativity.\nWhen employees come back after taking time off, their mental reset and increased productivity can also influence their level of creativity. Have you ever been frustrated with a project, then taken a few steps away, and after a while came back with a whole new idea? It\u2019s the exact same case with time off. Time away boosts workers\u2019 creativity when they return.\n6. New perspective.\nOftentimes in business, a new perspective is necessary for problem-solving, marketing and even sales. When workers take time away during the holiday season, they often return to work refreshed and with a new perspective in mind. CNN stated that this scenario is similar to asking a friend for advice on a situation. Because the friend is removed from the event, he or she has a fresh perspective in order to offer sound advice.\nWhile work is an important part of life, nothing beats the value loved ones bring to the table. This holiday season, keep these benefits in mind as you take time off to celebrate with loved ones. Not only will you be happy for time off, but the company will be grateful, as well."}

+{"text": "The impact of sectoral heterogeneities in economic growth and catching up: Empirical evidence for Latin American manufacturing industries\nBuilding on different strands of literature this paper proposes an\napproach to characterize the structural patterns followed by the\nmanufacturing sector of Latin American largest economies \u00a1VArgentina,\nBrazil and Mexico\u00a1V during the last decades. The main focus of this\napproach relies on the evolution of technological gaps with the world\nfrontier. Measures of relative labour productivity with respect to the\nUS (as a proxy for technological gaps) are used to identify industries\nwith different degrees of modernity and to analyze their distribution in\ndifferent points of time in order to establish stylized patterns in\ntheir structural trajectories.\nThe empirical analysis provides evidence supporting the hypothesis that the economies of the region are characterized by high and persistent sectoral heterogeneities. Moreover, it suggests that the manufacturing sector of these economies had followed a trajectory of partial catching-up with structural polarization. In short, these economies are lagging behind at the aggregate manufacturing level, but show very heterogeneous trends within their own structures. While a small fraction of industries seems to be using technologies close to the frontier or has managed to achieve fast reductions in the technological gap, the remaining industries are far away from the technological frontier and keep lagging further behind.\nKeywords: Latin America; Manufacturing; Structural change; Catching-up\nJEL Classification: L16 (Industrial Structure and Structural Change); O14 (Industrialization); N66 (Manufacturing and Construction in Latin America)"}

This requires time and resources in the source system. Under certain conditions, this sorting can be omitted.\nIn this context, generated jobs adapt to changes, even if, for example, a DB change, a release change or other changes have taken place. Nevertheless, once created copy jobs can be reused, which minimizes the maintenance effort and a certain susceptibility to errors. This is also the case when switching from one Any DB to another or when moving from an Any DB to Hana.\nBefore shutting down the target system\nFact: BDLS is a kind of \"time eater\" for system copies (except when using Hana). An important first step is to integrate the BDLS run into the system copy. Once the copy is effectively through, the BDLS is automatically started.\nThe task of a system copy created for updates is a carefully integrated system that takes on a specific role in an SAP system landscape. That is why customizing the SAP database of the target system differs significantly from customizing the database of the production system. In a system copy-based update, the database of the target system is completely overwritten with the contents of the production system. Therefore, all SAP-specific customization of the target system must be performed after the update with the system copy. The pre- and post-processing is often performed manually while the target system is running. Specific SAP transactions are used to customize the system. Execution can take a long time and is a source of human error. To automate most transactions, UC4 Automated System Copy for SAP can also be used. Before the update, UC4 Automated System Copy takes care of downloading the required content for the SAP customization from the target system and after the update is complete, uploading the content back to the system.\nWith \"Shortcut for SAP Systems\" you get additional functions for the SAP system copy.\nBackup and restore are performed at the SAN device level and supported by HP System Copy software.\nSAP Basis refers to the administration of SAP system that includes activities like installation and configuration, load balancing, and performance of SAP applications running on Java stack and SAP ABAP.

There is no doubt it must be because of the calmness and the silent and happy environment that you find there. However, immigration to Quebec isn\u2019t that easy and involves a great deal of legal formalities that must be dealt with ease and in a proper manner. Many do even look out to find the Quebec Skilled Worker Visa but they fail to get it. Thus, we have brought forward you the opportunity to get it without much issue. The work needed to deal by you is giving us all the required documents and your full faith on us. Nile Immigration will handle the rest of the matters that aren\u2019t easy for a common man.\nWell, if you are moving to Quebec, you should know of the fact about it. For your help, we have mentioned some of the greatest things that you must know about Quebec.\nQuebec is a part of Canada and comes under the list of thirteen Provinces and territories of Canada. It can be said to be a island as it is well surrounded by Bay throughout. To the West, it is bordered by the province of Ontario and waterbodies of Hudson Bay and James Bay. To the east of this province, we can find the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the beautiful Newfoundland and Labrador. Well, the greatest of all fact is that Quebec is the largest province by area that Canada ever had and specially second largest administrative division. Along with Ontario, historically, this province is considered to be the part of Central Canada.\nMore about Quebec\nQuebec is no doubtedly the most populated province of Canada after Ontario in the list. In Canada, it is quite difficult to find a whole population speaking in French but with the time, Quebec got involved much more in speaking French. In fact, French is the sole provincial official language of Quebec which is definitely a boast for the French speaking population. You will even find English speaking population and they are mostly found towards the west of the island of Montreal but majority of them can be found in Outaouais, Eastern Townships, and Gaspe regions.\nSpeaking of the Quebec Skilled Worker Immigration Processing Time is not more than 13 months. Hardly does it take more than 3 months when there are certain problems with the documents required otherwise once the required fund is provided the immigrant can immigrate to Quebec without facing any issue. However, even if any of the minimum requirements hasn\u2019t been met then the immigration may be cancelled. Same happens with the restriction opposed by the province, if anyone violate the restriction they immigration will be terminated after proper procedure conducted. However, with the help of Nile Immigration, you won\u2019t have to face any of the following. So, its time to cheer up."}
+{"text": "Many patients who suffer from chronic symptoms have had the experience of going to the doctor, getting diagnostic tests, and then being told, \u201call the tests are normal\u201d.\nHow can this be? How can someone feel so poorly, yet have normal tests?\nHere is the main reason. Almost every test and diagnostic procedure in conventional medicine is focused on uncovering a disease. In other words, the tests and procedures are looking for pathology. They are looking for something that is broken. They are looking for something that will show evidence of organ or structural damage. They are also looking for markers that indicate a \u201cdisease\u201d.\nFor example, a blood test can show a high sugar level, elevated cholesterol, or a poorly functioning kidney. A cardiac catheterization can reveal a blocked artery, a bone density scan will see if you have osteoporosis.\nHowever, none of these tests will show why you have these problems, and certainly none of these tests will be abnormal until you actually have a pathological condition (a disease).\nFunctional tests, on the hand are looking for imbalances in physiology, biochemistry, energy, and anatomy and, of course functionality.\nFunctional tests can detect imbalances that can lead to disease. These imbalances may precede true pathological (disease) manifestations by years or decades. By addressing (correcting) these imbalances early enough, wellness can be restored and overt disease prevented.\nHere are some examples of some functional tests:\nA comprehensive digestive stool analysis (CDSA)- this is a battery of tests which measure chemicals in a stool sample. This test can detect species of bacteria and fungus, digestive enzyme levels, PH, absorption of fat, digestion of protein and several other parameters.\nSerum homocysteine levels- homocysteineis a toxic amino acid that becomes elevated when B vitamin function is suboptimal. Elevated homocysteine is a surrogate marker for lack of available methyl groups in the system. These methyl groups are normally utilized to produce neurotransmitters, detoxify tissues, and serve as anti-oxidants and a long list of other functions. When methyl groups are depleted (and homocysteine is elevated) diseases such as coronary artery disease, birth defects, diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, kidney problems and many others can result.\nMetabolically Directed Functional Testing- This is a method of assessing several different mechanisms that control biochemical and physiological function. Acid-base balance, autonomic balance, anabolic-catabolic balance, electrolyte balance and blood sugar regulation can all be quantified through this method. Imbalances in any of the aforementioned control mechanisms can lead to a multitude of symptoms and long-term damage.\nA Chinese Medicine evaluation based on characteristic signs in tongue diagnosis, pulses diagnosis, facial complexion, and body structure.\nFunctional testing can reveal imbalances in physiology, biochemistry, structure, energy and function. Once these imbalances are identified, a program to reverse them can be developed.\nThere is an ancient saying \u201can ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure\u201d. Utilizing functional testing methods can lead to true prevention of health problems.\nSchedule a Free Consult\nComplete this quick form to schedule a\nnon-obligation 15 minutes phone consultation."}

Demolition of the old bridge is underway this week, and the calendar is full of bridge work in the next couple of weeks as some big pours go in.

Elmore Park, and maybe noted the new sidewalk and driveway from Front St. into Burden\u2019s.\nAlong First near Pacific, the curbing in front of the Pioneer Museum is coming together nicely, and the intricate radial pattern that is designed for that space should be coming soon. On the Post Office side, the brick wall is being finished this week, and the next couple of weeks includes the electrical work, concrete and track for the new gate that will be installed into the rear parking area.\nOn Main, the heating oil tank that was discovered in front of Everything Pets has been addressed, and that space filled so progress on the remaining vaults and northern stretch of sidewalk can move forward. Access to Tangled Yarns will shift from the north (Second St. south along Main to the door) to the south (so you will approach from Third, passing Sunflower Flats, Annie\u2019s Country Sportswear, and Everything Pets). Decisions about how to handle the more massive tank between Third and Fourth are still being made.\nMeanwhile, excavation crews have plenty to do tackling the clearing and beginning of the trail making process for the new \u201cCrosstown Connections\u201d path.

The genocide in Gaza is another chapter in this 100-year war.\n02 December 2023 | Chris Hedges Report\nThe conflict between the Palestinians and Israel, which has reached a terrifying crescendo with the savage obliteration of Gaza, is the outcome of a 100-year-old colonial occupation by Jewish Zionists in Israel backed by major imperial powers, starting with the British and a century later with the United States. This century-long assault by Israel has one objective \u2013 to force an indigenous people from their land. The historian Rashid Khalid breaks what he calls \u201cthe hundred years of war on Palestine\u201d into six periods. The first is the British support for Jewish Zionists during the British occupation of Palestine from 1917 and 1939. The second declaration of war is the 1947-1948 Nakbeh, or catastrophe, that saw Zionist militias ethnically cleanse 750,000 Palestinians from historic Palestine and carry out a series of massacres. The third is 1967 war when Israel seized the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza and expelled another 250,000 Palestinians. The fourth declaration of war on Palestine was Ariel Sharon\u2019s invasion of Lebanon and the siege of Beirut, followed by the departure of Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) fighters to Tunisia and the 1982 massacre at the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps. The fourth war against the Palestinians began with the first intifada, or uprising in 1987, continued with the second intifada and is taking place with the Israeli brutal assault on Gaza. The backdrop to this century of war by Israel on the Palestinians is the failure by Arab leaders to offer meaningful support to the Palestinians, in fact these leaders often colluded with Israel to weaken the Palestinian resistance movement. Joining me in the studio to discuss Israel\u2019s settler colonial project, how it is being played out in Gaza and its consequences, is Rashid Khalidi, the Edward Said Professor of Modern Arab Studies at Columbia University and the author of \u201cThe Hundred Years\u2019 War on Palestine: A History of Settler Colonization and Resistance, 1917-2017.\u201d"}

However, there are some differences between the two specifications. According to the two specifications ,the effective widthes of a simple supported bridge, a continuous girder bridge with two spans and a continuous girder bridge with three spans are discussed. From the results, we can draw the conclusion that it is pessimistic and simple to calculate effective width of simple support beam according to Japanese specifications.The wide span ratio is the key factor for effective width of box girder bridge in British and Japanese specifications. It is more accurate to calculate the effective width of box girder bridge with British specifications.\n- \u00a9 2018, the Authors.

+{"text": "Until now, there was no clear reason why sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) occurs. In a paper published today in the journal Brain, researchers have identified key aspects of fatal and non-fatal seizures.\nSUDEP is unusual, occurring without warning in up to 12 per cent of people with epilepsy and up to 40 per cent of people with uncontrolled seizures, such as those not managed with medication or surgery (refractory epilepsy). SUDEP leaves no anatomical clues behind, making it difficult to understand how a seizure becomes life-threatening.\nBuilding on CURE Epilepsy- and BC Epilepsy Society-funded research that Dr. Stuart Cain and Prof. Terrance Snutch began in 2014, the team has now identified regions of the brain that become inactive after seizures in mouse models. Depolarization of neurons is part of the process by which signals in the brain are normally transmitted between nerve cells. However, following seizures or traumatic brain injury, a severe and long lasting \u201cspreading depolarization\u201d occurs which instead silences activity as it moves through specific brain regions. This new research confirms that if spreading depolarization engages the brainstem, the result is fatal.\nSeizures and migraine can engage similar processes in the brain, and so the team took a model with a genetic mutation found in humans causing chronic migraines and severe seizures, then monitored brain cell swelling that occurs simultaneously with spreading depolarization in real time via diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). What they found was that during fatal seizure events, depolarization spread to the brainstem, first arresting breathing; cardiac arrest followed, leading to death within a minute of the seizure. The brainstem plays an important role in regulating cardiovascular and respiratory function. In non-fatal seizures, depolarization did not spread to the brainstem.\n\u201cSpreading depolarization is the result of an intense excitement of the neurons, such as a seizure, followed by a long-lasting period of inactivity that travels outward to neighbouring neurons from the excitement point,\u201d explains Dr. Cain. \u201cIt moves outward like a wave across the brain; the downstream silencing effect of the seizure depends on what region of the brain is affected by the wave.\u201d\nDr. Cain and Prof. Snutch are hopeful that by identifying regions affected by cellular inactivity after seizure their team will be able to find a therapeutic target to prevent sudden death post-seizure. The next phase of this project aims to investigate potential drugs that may prevent the spread of depolarization into the brainstem. Dr. Cain is now involved in the next phase of drug development for neurological disorders at the Centre for Drug Research and Development (CDRD), where they are driving discoveries from the lab into new therapies in the clinic.\n\u201cAt this stage we\u2019re encouraged that our SUDEP model seems to be effective; these findings add to the fundamental understanding of the processes underlying SUDEP risk, and our model shows promise towards helping us identify predictive biomarkers in people with epilepsy at risk of SUDEP in the future,\u201d says Dr. Cain.\n- Brainstem spreading depolarization and cortical dynamics during fatal seizures in Cacna1a S218L mice (Brain, February 1, 2019)\n- Commentary: Brainstem spreading depolarization: rapid descent into the shadow of SUDEP (Dr. Jeffrey Noebels, Brain.

The executor's role revolves around guaranteeing that the instructions in the will are implemented.\nThe person named as executor of an estate usually has some work ahead of them. To ensure that they actually follow through on their commitments, most people name as executor the person who will get the most money, or other benefit, if the will is given effect as written. Because an estate can't be distributed until the administration process is complete, the executor has an incentive to see it through.\nWhat if The Will Does Not Name an Executor?\nIf a Dyer, Indiana will does not assign anyone to serve as executor, or there is no will, the court has to choose someone to fill that role.\nThis is most often the person who stands to gain the most from the will, or who would inherit the most under Indiana's intestacy laws. Intestacy is the system that every state has in order to deal with the property of people who die without a will. It usually distributes the property to the closest living relatives of the decedent, assuming they can be located.\nIf no executor is named in the will, anyone with a share in the will can apply to the court in Dyer, Indiana to be the executor of the estate, if they wish.\nWhoever is assigned to serve as executor, it is their job to act as the representative of the estate.

And mom\u2019s influence may be conveyed through the maternal germline, which means that future generations could consume healthy diets and still be predisposed to obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease.\nNew research shows that a mother's obesity\u2014and its associated metabolic problems\u2014can be inherited through mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) present in the unfertilized oocyte, or egg. This finding comes from a mouse study that was conducted at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, where scientists fed female mice a high-fat, high-sugar diet from before conception until weaning and then followed the outcomes in the next three generations of offspring, all fed a control diet.\nFrom 6 weeks prior to conception until weaning, the scientists fed mice a high-fat, high-sugar diet comprised of about 60% fat and 20% sugar. \u201cThis mimics more of the Western diet,\u201d said Kelle H. Moley, M.D., the School of Medicine's James P. Crane Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology. \u201cBasically, it's like eating fast food every day.\u201d\nThe results of a study led by Dr. Moley appeared June 16 in the journal Cell Reports, in an article entitled, \u201cMaternal Metabolic Syndrome Programs Mitochondrial Dysfunction via Germline Changes across Three Generations.\u201d\n\u201cWe found that, despite consuming a normal diet, the first, second, and third generations of female offspring developed mitochondrial dysfunction and abnormal mitochondrial morphology in their skeletal muscle,\u201d wrote the article\u2019s authors. \u201cMoreover, the mitochondrial dynamic proteins DRP-1 and OPA1 were misexpressed in the skeletal muscles of F1, F2, and F3 mice, suggesting an imbalance of fission and fusion. Mitochondrial abnormalities were also present in the germ cells of F1 and F2 females, suggesting that transmission of the mitochondrial phenotype occurred through the maternal germline.\u201d\nMore research is needed to determine if a consistent diet low in fat and sugar, as well as regular exercise, may reverse genetic metabolic abnormalities.\n\u201cIt's important to note that in humans, in which the diets of children closely mirror those of their parents, the effects of maternal metabolic syndrome may be greater than in our mouse model,\u201d Dr. Moley noted. \u201cIn any case, eating nutritiously is critical.\u201d\n\u201cResearch, including this study, points to poor maternal nutrition and a predisposition to obesity,\u201d Dr. Morely continued. \u201cOur findings indicate that a mother's obesity can impair the health of later generations. This is particularly important because more than two-thirds of reproductive-age women in the United States are overweight or obese.\u201d\nIn the current study, Dr. Morely and colleagues considered the possibility tha tearly-life exposure to maternal obesity affects the epigenome. There is already evidence that changes to the nuclear epigenome may promote metabolic disease in offspring. In addition, there could be changes to mtDNA. Such changes, which are inherited through the maternal germline, may provide a mechanism for transmission of metabolic dysfunction.\n\u201cAlthough we did not examine the epigenetic mechanisms leading to inheritance of abnormal mitochondrial phenotypes,\u201d wrote the authors, \u201cour data showing altered mitochondrial metabolism, morphology, and OPA1 expression in offspring germ cells suggest that both modification of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes and altered mtDNA play a role.\u201d"}

However, harnessing the energy source on Earth\u2014let alone in space\u2014has proven difficult, with only one net energy fusion reaction ever achieved.\nMini-sun engines: If and when it can be mastered, fusion could offer a near-inexhaustible energy source, potentially revolutionizing space propulsion by allowing spacecraft to travel farther, faster.\n\u201cIn the space sector, fusion propulsion has been the holy grail since the 60s,\u201d Helicity cofounder Stephane Lintner told Payload. \u201cFusion is the only reaction that gets you a level of energy that allows you to break away from the limits that we have right now with chemical.\u201d\n- Conventional chemical propulsion generates very high power but expends fuel quickly.\n- Electric propulsion is fuel-efficient but is limited by power and thrust.\nMars, Jupiter, interstellar: The company says that when its Helicity Drive engines are operational (at least 10+ years out), it could propel a spacecraft to Mars in two months, Jupiter in one year, and interstellar space in just ten years. For comparison, it took NASA\u2019s Perseverance rover about seven months to reach the Red Planet.\nThe company and its investors are well aware of the magnitude of the work ahead. Helicity will have to master the fusion reaction before it can look ahead to developing operational engines. The company\u2019s product roadmap:\n- 2026: Demo its plasma jets reconnecting\u2014before fusion net gain.\n- 2032: Test flight with fusion augmenting solar electric propulsion.\n- 2040s: Self-sustaining engines.\nGeek out: Helicity\u2019s fusion engines will employ a pulsed magneto-inertial confinement technique. How it works:\n- Multiple plasma jets are shot along a track in the engine.\n- The jets merge and compress, reaching fusion conditions at 100M degrees Fahrenheit.\n- The fusion reaction fuses deuterium (hydrogen) atoms, resulting in energy for direct thrust."}
+{"text": "A study printed within the 2010 publication of the Australian Dental Journal says about 16% of adults around australia have a very high dental fear. Such dental anxiety might not appear just like a serious problem, yet it will have major implications on the healthiness of many Australians.\nIf somebody is scared of going to the dental professional, he/she\u2019d finish up getting poorer dental health in addition to going to the dental professional less regularly. Fundamental essentials sort of people that simply do not show up for his or her scheduled appointments using the dental professional or perhaps cancel such appointments.\nWhy People Fear Dentists\nIndividuals who fear dentists have different causes of their fear. In a few instances, adults have painful recollections, etched inside their minds, of bad encounters they experienced when going to the dental professional throughout their childhood years. Indeed, children could be deeply impacted by painful encounters as a result of united nations-empathic dentists, that will keep on into the adult years.\nIn some cases, many people might have the mistaken thought that dental care would hurt. Fortunately, dental professionals are more and more conscious of their patients\u2019 fear. Dentists are adopting effective, patient-friendly ways of provide stress-free and mild dental hygiene to any or all patients.\nThrough a number of methods, dental professionals can effectively identify and counter dental anxiety in patients.\nNeed For Dental professional Visits\nA realization of the significance of regular dental check-up may help you overcome your fear. Being able to access services is instrumental in making certain good dental health. Indeed, the Ada recommends that adults must have a verbal visit at least one time inside a 6-month period.\nYou need to understand that dentists don\u2019t merely treat dental health problems. Additionally they serve the vital role of assisting you maintain healthy teeth and gums. Which means that regular dental visits could make you less vulnerable to poor dental health.\nSome Other Reasons For Staying away from Dentists\nFear is not the only real reason people avoid dentists. A number of other reasons exist, including cost constraints. A 2011 report printed within the Australian Institute of Health insurance and Welfare reveals which more than one-third of Australian dentate adults either delayed or completely prevented going to the dental professional due to cost issues.\nNot getting dental insurance plans is yet another component that plays a role in avoidance of dental visits. A 2011 study through the Australian Institute of Health insurance and Welfare reveals that double the amount number of uninsured adults (45%) prevented going to the dental professional, when compared with insured adults (22.9%). This highlights the critical role that insurance plays in dental health. Upfront barriers, particularly, really are a potential barrier that insurance will help overcome.\nPatient indifference is yet another aspect that includes to avoidance of dental visits. This kind of indifference towards dentistry can adversely affect dental health.\nThere also exist instances by which people only go to the dental professional like a last measure. Instead of opting for regular dental check-ups, they merely go to the dental professional when impacted by particular dental issues. This is not advisable since protection against dental issues (permitted through regular dental visits) is a far greater dental health plan when compared with management of dental issues."}

+{"text": "Knot theory is a branch of topology that deals with mathematical knots and links. A knot is an embedding of a circle into the 3-dimensional space. A union of knots is called a link or a catenane. As the chromosome of E. coli is closed circular, the core axis of its double stranded DNA can be considered as a knot. A site-specific recombination of DNA can be modeled mathematically by using a band surgery, a local move on a knot or a link as in the figure below. In biological experiments it is observed that some site-specific recombination reactions change the topology of DNA. Using this topological information, we can characterize the mechanisms of the site-specific recombination reactions as applications of results on band surgeries.\nIn our recent study, applying new mathematical results we characterized unlinking of replicated chromosome of E. coli by the FtsK-dependent XerC/XerD-dif recombination. There we determined the number of recombination steps needed to unlink replication catenanes. We showed that the stepwise unlinking as in the figure is the only possible pathway if we assume that the crossing number of DNA knot or link is reduced at each recombination. We also characterized the topological mechanism for these unlinking reactions.\nReference: \u201cFtsK-dependent XerCD-dif recombination unlinks replication catenanes in a stepwise manner\u201d, Koya Shimokawa, Kai Ishihara, Ian Grainge, David J.

As with the Brexit and Trump\u2019s election, gold spiked up but came down sharply, giving fuel to the conspiracy theorists\u2019 claims that the financial and governmental elite is working in suppress the global gold price.\nStrength in gold is seen as recognition that the global economy is in a dangerous state, and neither the big money nor the politicians want to see this interpretation gain credence. For the former it would mean a market collapse, destroying wealth, and for the latter it would damage the perception that all is well with the global economy, despite indicators that this is not the case.\nModern day politics is about perception. If people believe that all is well they will spend at levels that will help the economy. In the US there is plenty of evidence that the average person is worse off than they were a few years ago. Yet there was a consumer spending splurge on Cyber Monday that broke all records. This is unsustainable, but when will the myth that all is well with the world be understood by public?\nA comfortable existence may be on the way out. There are votes against the establishment, but in no case has the majority been large enough to carry much more than 50% of the vote, so there are still a substantial number of people who are happy with the status quo. The protest vote will have to grow if there is to be any serious perception change.\nPart of the underperformance of gold after the Italian result has been put down to dollar strength, given a sharp fall in the euro, as the result is seen as having the potential to upset the euro and precipitate an Italian banking system meltdown, with an adverse effect on the whole European banking sector, to which the Italian banks are severely in debt.

It began in 1911 with a donation of $25,000 by Catherine and Henry Hand for the erection of a hospital building. In 1918 the construction of Hand Hospital was complete.\nThis early facility had very simple equipment, with no laboratory or x-ray capabilities, and only a skylight for illumination in the operating room. By 1920, thirteen doctors served at the hospital. Many miracles were performed and lives were saved, despite treacherous mud roads leading to the hospital, no antibiotics, and limited resources.\nIn 1976, changes in medical care and advances in technology moved the hospital to consider extensive updates. A fundraising drive resulted in a gift of 10 acres from Jack Foster, an adjoining 1.2 acre gift by Edward May, and $3.5 million from donations and bond sales. A new, 44-bed hospital with improved facilities was constructed and opened in 1979. The new building was renamed Shenandoah Memorial Hospital.\nThroughout the years following, renovations and improvements continued. In 1993, the hospital announced plans for an expansion to provide state-of-the-art treatment of cancer and kidney dysfunction, launching the Clarkson Cancer Institute and Kidney Dialysis Center the following year. In 1998, the Shenandoah Outpatient Clinic facility was opened. In 2004, a new Disease Prevention & Wellness Center was completed, and in 2006, a new women\u2019s health clinic was launched. The hospital was renamed Shenandoah Medical Center.\nWhile facilities and technologies have changed over the years, our dedication to the Shenandoah area has remained consistent and unwavering.

+{"text": "Dying without a will can have a devastating impact on a family. Without a will, property is divided according to state law, without regard to your wishes or expectations. Beloved family members and friends who do not fall under the intestate succession laws could be left with nothing while distant, unknown or estranged family members may inherit your property. A simple will can help avoid dying intestate and keep your family together after your death.\nThe loss of a friend or family member can be a tragic time. However, fighting over their money and property can bring out the worst in people. When an individual prepares a clear estate plan to distribute their property, everyone involved understands that the property was distributed according to the decedent's wishes. Without an estate plan, battles over property distribution can tear a family apart.\nAn individual who dies without a will is considered to have died \u201cintestate\u201d. Without an estate plan in place to transfer property, the courts will step in to distribute the decedent's property through a process known as probate. This can be an expensive and drawn-out process that leaves grieving friends and family in limbo for months or years.\nDuring probate, the court will identify and inventory property, appraise the value of property, pay out any debts and taxes, deduct court, legal and probate fees, and distribute any property left over according to state intestacy laws.\nUnder California intestate succession laws, a surviving spouse generally receives the decedent's share of community property. If there are no surviving children, parents, siblings or children of siblings, the surviving spouse receives the decedent's separate property. If the decedent left at least one parent, child, sibling or child(ren) of a sibling, the surviving spouse gets either (a) half of the separate property; or (b) one-third, if the decedent left more than one such issue.\nWithout a surviving spouse, the distribution of property can be more complicated, depending on the number of descendants, children, grandchildren, parents, siblings, grandparents or nieces and nephews. If there are no surviving heirs, the decedent's property is usually distributed to the State of California.\nCalifornia's intestacy laws can be confusing, especially given the makeup of modern families. A couple separated for years may still be considered married under the law, while a long-term partner may have no legal claim for property of the estate. If the individual or couple moved between states over the years, their property accumulated over that time may be partially considered individual property or common property. This can lead to unintended and unequal distribution of their property after death and cause fighting between family members.\nThere are separate considerations regarding half blood relatives, adopted children and individuals who do not survive very long after the decedent passes away. Individuals involved in killing the decedent, or abusing an elderly decedent may be prevented from benefiting from their actions. Talk to your attorney with any questions about intestate succession or property transfers after death.\nIf you have any questions about estate planning, making a will or preparing a trust, contact Butterfield Schechter LLP.

Korean used to say, if you make pretty Songpyeon, you will meet pretty or handsome partner in the future. This diction made all the young men and women to make Songpyeon on Chuseok holiday with all their heart.\nThe origin of Songpyeon\nNo one knows exact origin of Songpyeon. However, it is known that people started to make Songpyeon in Koryo period. Korean also made Songpyeon on the 15th of the New Year according to the lunar calendar and distributed to servants. That was another way of requesting devotion to their servant for coming year. Songpyeon also used on baby\u00a1\u00afs first birthday. People hoped that the child becomes intelligent and full of knowledge in their head, just like Songpyeon is full of stuffing. This custom is still delivered in present time.\nThe kinds of Songpyeon\nSongpyeon is divided into several categories depending on its stuffing. There are red bean, sesame, beans, Chinese dates, chest nuts and many more. Songpyeon made with the first harvested rice was used in a worship service for family ancestors on Chuseok morning. The shape of Songpyeon also varies in each different regions. There are shellfish shaped Songpyeon in Seoul, Mandu shaped in Gangwon and HwangHae Provinces. Also the sizes is smaller in Seoul area and rather tough and thick in Hwanghae, Gyeongsang and Gangwon areas.\nSteamed Songpyeon on a Layer of Pine Needles\nSteaming Songpyeon on a layer of pine needles is another traditional custom. First, spread pine needles on rice steamer and put one layer of Songpyeon on it. And spread again pine needles and other layer of Songpyeon on the top of it and repeat same procedure. The flavor of pine needles helps to enjoy the taste of Songpyeon.\nSteaming with pine needles was scientifically proved as a good cooking method. All the plant produce various chemical substances to protect from outer side, this is called phytoncide. Pine trees produce this chemical ten times stronger than any other trees. That is why pine tree also symbolizes the purification which expels all the bad lucks.\nPhytoncide from pine tree is used as pain killer, extermination of insects, antibiosis, control of blood pressure and tranquilizer. It is easy to guess the wisdom of Korean, just by looking at Songpyeon with a layer of pine needles."}

While CBD is not a 100% cure for any medical condition, research has shown that it may effectively treat various health issues. Here are some of the medical conditions that CBD can help treat:\nAnxiety & Depression\nAnxiety and depression are two of the most common mental health disorders worldwide. It has been shown that CBD can help reduce anxiety and depression symptoms in both animal and human studies. CBD interacts with the brain\u2019s serotonin receptors, which help regulate mood and social behaviour. By increasing serotonin levels, CBD can help improve symptoms of anxiety and depression. There are many ways to take CBD, from eating gummies and edibles, tablets, patches, or a CBD vape from Vapoholic.\nCBD has been found to have pain-relieving properties, making it a potential treatment for chronic pain conditions such as arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and fibromyalgia. CBD interacts with the body\u2019s endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in regulating pain and inflammation. CBD can help reduce inflammation and pain by inhibiting the body\u2019s production of inflammatory cytokines.\nEpilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by seizures. CBD has been found to reduce the frequency and severity of seizures in people with epilepsy. The FDA has approved a CBD-based medication called Epidiolex for treating two rare forms of epilepsy, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and Dravet syndrome.\nCBD has been found to have sleep-inducing properties, making it a potential treatment for insomnia. CBD interacts with the body\u2019s endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in regulating sleep. CBD can help improve sleep by reducing anxiety and pain, which can interfere with sleep.\nAcne is a common skin condition that affects millions of people worldwide. CBD has been found to have anti-inflammatory properties, making it a potential acne treatment. CBD can help reduce inflammation and sebum production, both of which can contribute to the development of acne.\nCBD has been found to have neuroprotective properties, making it a potential treatment for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer\u2019s and Parkinson\u2019s. CBD can help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, both of which can contribute to the development and progression of these diseases.\nCBD has been found to have anticancer properties, making it a potential cancer treatment. CBD can help induce apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in cancer cells while leaving healthy cells unharmed. CBD can also help reduce the growth and spread of cancer cells by inhibiting the formation of new blood vessels.\nCBD is a natural compound with potential therapeutic benefits for various medical conditions. While more research is needed to understand the extent of its therapeutic effects fully, the existing evidence suggests that CBD can be a safe and effective treatment option for many people. When considering CBD to treat a medical condition, it is important to speak with your doctor first to ensure it is safe and determine the appropriate dosage and best way to take it."}

+{"text": "Volatility is the ease with which a substance is converted to the gaseous, or vapor, state. The term is usually used to describe the speed with which a liquid evaporates, but it can also apply to the process of a solid changing to a gas, known as sublimation. Liquids that boil at low temperatures, such as gasoline, are volatile liquids, while liquids that boil at higher temperatures, such as water, are less volatile or nonvolatile. Extremely volatile substances have such low boiling points that they exist as gases at room temperature, such as oxygen gas.\nSeveral factors affect the volatility of a liquid. In general, larger molecules are less volatile than smaller ones among molecules that share similar composition and construction. For example, ethyl alcohol is more volatile and evaporates more readily than a larger alcohol such as decanol. Almost every chemical is more volatile at higher temperatures than at lower ones. Water, which evaporates faster on a hot day than on a cold one, is a good example of this. Volatility is also affected by atmospheric pressure. Liquids are more volatile at higher altitudes, where atmospheric pressure is less. Some substances that are liquids at sea level will evaporate very quickly on top of a high mountain, assuming no change in other factors such as temperature.\nSome compounds, such as water, are extremely non-volatile; often this is because of strong chemical bonds between the molecules\u2014the most common of which are hydrogen bonds\u2014that resist the tendencies of individual molecules to enter the gaseous state."}

Behind all the glowing candles and twinkling lights stands an even brighter light, the Light of the World, Jesus Christ. Though the world may debate who He was and what is coming meant, for the believer, there can be no doubt. Others will assign him the tag \u2018good teacher, moral leader or religious leader.\nThe testimony of Scripture is that He is the Son of God the Messiah, the Anointed One come to redeem us from our sin. The coming of Christ is excellent news of great joy. Though surrounded by supernatural angelic announcers He was born in the lowliest of conditions namely a barn-like shed with animals and straw. He was visited by the marginalized of society the shepherds who moments before had been watching their sheep as they did every evening. Shepherds were considered outsiders because their work meant they were most of the time ceremonially unclean and therefore unable to be around religious people. God does His best work at the margins. One of the side notes, be it a significant side note: Jesus loves the outcast, the unclean, the marginalized.\nIt is true today; God does His best work on the margins. If you are not convinced that this is true, look at your own story! Better yet, look at the ministry of Jesus. Gentiles, women, lepers, and the lame. He embraced children, and the broken and welcomed them all gladly. He embodied the truth of John 3:16 \u201cFor God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life\u201d.\nWhosoever is a Christmas word! He did not come for those living in palaces only, He came for those living in public parks as well. He did not come only for those who were expecting Him; He came to those who had lost all expectation of hope. He came not only to those who were in the right places; He went to those who found themselves in places they never imagined and offered them, Hope.\nThere are a lot of things in short supply in our world today, but none more scarce than hope. If you hope in money, it may run out. If your faith is in people, they may run out as well. If your hope is in politicians, we pray they will run out! The only hope in and for this world 2000 years later is the same message of hope delivered to Shepherds keeping watch over their flocks by night: \u201cDo not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.\"\nIn a frightening world, we hear the announcement, \u201cDo Not Be Afraid!\u201d Do not let fear be Lord of your life, let Jesus be the Lord of your life! The end of the angelic announcement states these two words, \u201cthe Lord.\u201d\nAllow Him to be Lord of your life!\nThat is the message of Advent!\nThis post was written by Dr Ron Blake.

Today\u2019s aircraft are the work of hundreds, sometimes thousands, of people who turn ideas into aircraft that fly. Engineers put ideas onto paper. Manufacturers turn those drawings into real-life parts that get put together and become today\u2019s balloons, gliders, aerobatic planes, microlights, and helicopters.

+{"text": "This decision came following a Nov. 18 runoff election where Democrat candidate Henry Whitehorn emerged victorious against Republican opponent John Nickelson, winning by just one vote, KTAL NBC 6 reports.\nBleich, serving as Judge \"ad hoc\" for the First Judicial District Court, explained in his ruling that because the runoff election ended in a one-vote difference, \u201cIt was proven beyond any doubt that there were at least 11 illegal votes cast and counted.\u201d\nThus, it \u201cis legally impossible to know what the true vote should have been.\u201d\nA recount took place shortly after the Nov. 18 election, with the final margin being the same yet again after both candidates gained three votes. Nickelson, however, had a request for a hand recount denied by the Board of Election Supervisors over \"time restraints,\" according to the outlet.\nNickelson promptly filed a lawsuit to both contest the results and call for a special election. The Republican candidate charged that the process had been rushed, and that illegal votes had been counted in the election.\nNumerous people were discovered to have voted both in person and by mail, according to KTAL NBC 6.\n\u201cThe unofficial results of the sheriff race between me and my opponent indicated a one-vote margin out of more than 43,000 votes,\u201d Nickelson said in a media release put out after the Nov. 18 election. \u201cThat\u2019s something that hasn\u2019t happened as far as we can tell in more than a century in this country, it\u2019s truly unprecedented.\u201d\nWhitehorn had argued in a brief submitted to the First Judicial District Court: \u201cThe judiciary should not decide elections. Louisiana courts have made it clear that the results of an election are to be disturbed only under extraordinary circumstances where a plaintiff introduces compelling evidence that is sufficient to change the result in the election.\u201d\nBleich justified his ruling to bring a new election by pointing to an existing statute in Louisiana state law that pertinently states: \"A. If the trial judge in an action contesting an election determines that: (1) it is impossible to determine the result of election, or (2) the number of qualified voters who were denied the right to vote by the election officials was sufficient to change the result in the election, if they had been allowed to vote, or (3) the number of unqualified voters who were allowed to vote by the election officials was sufficient to change the result of the election if they had not been allowed to vote ... the judge may render a final judgment declaring the election void and ordering a new primary or general election for all the candidates...\"\nInitially, four judges recused themselves from the case because they reportedly were friends with Nickelson. The Louisiana Supreme Court eventually put Bleich on the case.\nWhitehorn's team is expected to appeal Bleich's ruling.\nJoin and support independent free thinkers!\nWe\u2019re independent and can\u2019t be cancelled. The establishment media is increasingly dedicated to divisive cancel culture, corporate wokeism, and political correctness, all while covering up corruption from the corridors of power.

As reported by FoodSafetyNews.com, the contaminaited chcken salad prodcuts in question were made August 23rd, 2013 to October 14th, 2013 and were shipped to wholesalers in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Despite the fact that some of the products included in this recall may be expired, the U.S. Department of Agriculture\u2019s Food Safetey and Inspection Service is worried that some of these products may have made their way to retail or consumer freezers. If that is the case, containing the contamination will prove to be more challenging.\nInfection with listeria, or Listeriosis is with antibiotics and any high risk person who has flu-like symptoms after eating contaminated food should contact healthcare providers or emergency medical services. Some common signs of Listeriosis are loss of balance, convulsions,fever, muscle aches, and confusion. The infection caused by listeria monocytogenes can cause miscarriages, stillbirths, and premature delivery of the baby. Older adults or people with a weakened immune system are at a higher risk of listeriosis, an infection caused by listeria monocytogenes. Pregnant women and their babies are also more likely to be infected than people with normal immune system strength.\nThe New Hampshire Department of Public Healh first discovered the contamination when two samples that had not been in contact both tested positive for listeria. Once the New Hampshire Department of Public Health had become aware of the problem, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health was contacted, and intact samples of the product were tested.\nAfter this evaluation found two samples that tested positive for listeria, the U.S. Department of Agriculture\u2019s Food Safetey and Inspection Service was contacted. As of yet, no details have been made public but further investigation may have identified a source of the contamination. Federal and state public health partners such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the New Hampshire/Massachusetts health departments have been closley working together on the investigation.\nThankfully, to-date there have not been any reports of illnesses from the contaminated products."}

+{"text": "A bridge discovered on the Lunar surface holds promise for a Lunar expedition and possibly habitation on the moon, or rather in it. The bridge discovered by NASA suggests there may be even more about the moon than we thought. And it carries with it promise for an incredible expedition and even a permanent installation on the Moon.\nThe bridge may not seem like much more than a Lunar anomaly to most, but the real question is how was it formed? Generally since land bridges are nothing more than a combination of high winds and sediment settling through erosion, they are fairly common on Earth where both are present in abundance. But what about the moon where neither wind nor erosion due to precipitation are present? Scientists at NASA have decided the answer must lie in an alternative \u2013 magma tubes.\nThe images were taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) as it surveyed the Lunar surface in search of features exactly like this land bridge that may spell promise for future missions. Previously the LRO had already confirmed the idea that magma tubes interlace the moon, suggesting there may be more to our oldest satellite than meets the eye. With the moon filled with tunnels, it seems there\u2019s more space for lunar real estate than had ever been previously expected.\nAnd tunnels beneath the surface could provide structures colonists or explorers could pressurize and use for human habitation both as living space and protection against solar flares. A colony beneath the moon\u2019s surface could cut costs of Lunar expeditions by several factors. And the natural tubes would provide far stronger shelters than the previously proposed \u201cinflatable\u201d houses that would have previously dotted the Lunar surface.\nWhy colonize the moon? Aside from the wealth of natural resources, research potential, and space concerns, there is a drive that the human race has always exhibited to reach for the unattainable and explore new worlds. A Lunar colony could be the next generation\u2019s manifestation of this drive. And with a far lower gravity than Earth, the fuel accelerant rich Moon could be a launching point for several missions to other planets, including Mars.\nBut there\u2019s another question that comes up when examining the prospect of massive tunnels underneath the Moon\u2019s surface. Could something else be down there already? Some have pointed to the tunnels as the perfect place for an alien civilization to launch operations studying and influencing Earth. Is it possible an expedition to the moon\u2019s lava tubes could unearth far more than they could have ever expected? What if they truly are filled with a massive underground base complete with structures that have been there for years?\nStill, even without the potential for more sensational discoveries the moon\u2019s lava tubes are an excellent point of exploration for future missions (be they manned or simply robotic probes).\nIt seems NASA will have its work cut out for it on this mission, but the potential wealth of information and benefit is endless."}

The\nfindings indicate that there is potential unmet need for lung cancer specialist\nnurses, who comprise only 11% of the Cancer Nurse Specialists in England,\nthough lung cancer is the second most common cancer in the UK.\ncross-referenced patient access to lung cancer specialist nurses with a range\nof healthcare factors, including patient age, stage of disease, referral route,\ntiming of diagnosis, treatment method, trust size and the level of seniority\namong nursing staff.\nKey findings from the study include:\nA clear association between the age of patients and the likelihood of receiving an assessment by a lung cancer specialist nurse, with those over the age of 75 significantly less likely to be assessed than those aged 65 and under.\nPatients twice as likely to have been assessed in trusts where the majority of work is done by band 8 nurses, compared to bands 6 and 7.\nPatients referred by an emergency route 57% less likely to receive an assessment, compared to those referred by a GP.\nPatients first seen in Trusts with an annual lung cancer caseload of \u2265 265 were less likely to be assessed compared with smaller trusts.\nProfessor of Healthcare Modelling at LSBU, commented: \u201cLung\nCancer Nurse Specialists play a vitally important role in the case management\nof lung cancer patients. The specialist care they provide is proven to reduce\nunnecessary hospital admissions and doctor consultations, and improve patient\n\u201cIt may be of\nconcern that there is potential unmet need for specialist nurse assessment among\nsome patients, as flagged by this study. To meet the needs of all people with\nlung cancer it is therefore vital to expand the current lung cancer specialist\nnurse workforce, and to ensure that experienced professionals are retained as\nan integral part of patient care teams.\u201d"}
+{"text": "I\u2019d like to thank Galaxy Media and Inner Traditions for including me on this tour. All opinions are, of course, my own.\nWhen I Was Someone Else: The Incredible True Story of Past Life Connection\nPublication Date: February 9, 2021\nLength: 392 pages\nPublisher: Park Street Press\nWhile on a spiritual retreat in Peru, journalist St\u00e9phane Allix experienced a vivid waking vision of a soldier dying on a snowy battlefield, followed by scenes from the soldier\u2019s earlier life. He also clearly saw the man\u2019s name, Alexander Herrmann, and felt a disturbing sense of closeness with the soldier.\nObsessed by the power of this extremely real vision, Allix began an intensive investigation that revealed this individual had actually existed: a German soldier who died in World War II during the 1941 Russian campaign. As he began retracing Herrmann\u2019s past, he found that the other images accompanying the battle scene were also of people who had truly existed and were close to the man who died. Diving deep into German military archives, meeting the man\u2019s surviving family members, and following his own intuitive hunches, the author also discovered that the soldier was part of the Waffen S.S., the infamous Totenkopf Brigade, and his investigation broadened to explore what drove Herrmann to become part of such an organization.\nWhile Allix\u2019s initial impression is that this German soldier was a past life, as he progresses in his rigorous investigation and his decoding of the events surrounding it, he realizes that it was actually his own work with the paranormal and his unresolved feelings over the death of his brother and his father that made him particularly sensitive to the veil between life and death, culminating in the soul of this dead soldier coming to him in search of forgiveness and healing. Allix realizes that his mission is not to bring about the rebirth of this person but to heal him\u2013and the victims of his ignominious actions during the war.\nOffering a fascinating exploration of visions, synchronicities, reincarnation, and the connections between the spiritual and physical planes, When I Was Someone Else shares a powerful message of healing after death along with the profound epiphany that light needs darkness to be perceived.\nSt\u00e9phane Allix is a journalist, former war correspondent, and founder of the Institute for Research on Extraordinary Experiences (INREES). He is the author of The Test: Incredible Proof of the Afterlife and the writer and director of the French television series Extraordinary Investigations (Enqu\u00eates extraordinaires). He lives in France.\nMy Thoughts & Takeaways\nWhen I Was Someone Else by St\u00e9phane Allix is unlike any other book I\u2019ve read I think. But, I\u2019m highly intrigued by World War II history and stories and reincarnation also interests me.\nThe book is a deep dive based on a dream the author has during a retreat in Peru. During the dream (vision), he encounters a young Nazi and it felt like a very intense vision so much so that he started wondering if he had possibly been a Nazi in a past life.\nThat\u2019s what leads Allix on the search for answers eventually leading him to finding the individual he had envisioned \u2014 a German soldier who died in WWII.\nThis book will make you consider the possibilities of visions, reincarnation, and spiritual planes.\nThere were a lot of details that I had a hard time keeping straight or focused, but overall I enjoyed this read of something I possibly wouldn\u2019t have even considered before."}

G.E.T. owners have been building hydroponic plant foods for over 25 years and have tried the same formulas with different manufactures fertilizer salts, achieving different results and now we only build our plant foods with these proven mineral salts.\nSO LET'S GET STARTED Many manufacturers of plant food build their plant food to be pH stable. pH buffers such as 2-(N_morpholino) ethanesulfonic acid - abbreviated to MES will stabilize the nutrient solution. We, at Growing Edge Technologies (G.E.T.) build our plant food without pH stabilization capabilities, allowing the grower to monitor the nutrient solution and fix a situation before it becomes a problem with their yield. By monitoring the pH of the hydroponic nutrient solution, the grower can monitor the health of a plant. If the pH of the nutrient solution continuously rises then the plant is healthy and actively feeding. Do not allow the nutrient solution to climb above pH 6.5. Change nutrient solution, even if it is before the regular nutrient schedule change. There are two main reasons why the nutrient solution can drop in ph value. One is by not providing adequate volume of nutrient solution. If the volume of water containing mineral elements is not enough then the alkaline ions, such as, Ammonium Nitrate (NH4+), Potassium (K+), Calcium (Ca2+), Magnesium (Mg2+) will be utilized by the plant or plants quicker. Use a Parts Per Million (PPM) Electrical Conductor Meter to monitor the strength of nutrient solution. When the nutrient solution drops by 200-ppm you have to change the nutrient solution. Use 2 litre of nutrient solution per 4 days on small or young plants and up to 10 litres for large tomato plants. The second reason is that the plant is fighting off an invasion of bad bacteria in the root zone.\ntop of page\nbottom of page"}

We formulated seven prompts (AI search questions) asking about five specific enslaved people and two localities for which there is significant documentation from the Northeast Slavery Records Index (NESRI) and other internet sources. We submitted the prompts to three AI programs, ChatGTP, Microsoft Bing and Google Bard, and compared the results to descriptions readily available elsewhere.

When campus officials model and normalize slavery, this is an important educational message to students, who as alumni bring these values and norms back to their home communities. Thus, slavery at the campus can promote slavery in distant communities. This is particularly true when the campuses are educating future ministers and religious leaders, who then model and espouse slavery to their congregations and home communities.\nThe Northeast Slavery Records Index (NESRI) is assembling records of enslavement associated with universities, colleges and schools, and developing online reports of the records we index. We include records of enslavement by college officials and by students in their home communities. The project is starting with colonial universities and colleges, and those founded in the early decades of the USA.\nRead more \u2192"}

This development is a significant win, as it ensures that independent contractors can continue to operate without undue constraints, particularly amidst the current housing crisis.\nMaster Builders Australia extend their heartfelt gratitude to the thousands of Australians (including many KBDi members) who signed a petition, emailed/called/visited their local member of parliament, participated in media interviews, or spread the word with their networks.\nTogether, we have demonstrated the power of collective action in safeguarding the rights and interests of independent contractors.\nThank you once again for your dedication and commitment.\nOne more webinar\nWith the changes now law there are range of changes, including last minute amendments, and start dates that you will need to get your head across.

This study described the communication strategies employed in the utterances of Filipino students in their classroom discourses as a basis for an enhancement module on strategic competence. Furthermore, it utilized a descriptive-quantitative approach. Third-year college students under the Bachelor in Secondary Education major in English program of four purposively selected higher education institutions in Region XII, the Philippines were the participants of the study, who were observed with video recordings. Transcription of students\u2019 utterances provided the data for analysis through the use of the taxonomy of communication strategies. Based on the results, English majors possess strategic competence as evidenced by their use of varied communication strategies, with fillers being the most lavishly employed. However, the analysis also conveyed that students incline to overuse three communication strategies (use of fillers/hesitation devices, self-repetition, mumbling) which resulted in observable message distortions, unsuccessful information transfers, and even total communication breakdowns. The results of this study became the basis to come up with an enhancement module on the strategic competence of English majors. The findings suggest that the proposed enhancement module on strategic competence be implemented in the selected higher education institutions in the Philippines and further studies on other aspects of communicative competence (linguistic, socio-linguistic, and discourse) be conducted with a more significant sample of students taking other courses and coming from various groups and ages."}
+{"text": "12 February 2014\nA Papyrus Puzzle and Some Purple Parchment\nAmong the many treasures in the Cotton collection of manuscripts, the contents of Cotton MS Titus C XV (new to Digitised Manuscripts) are particularly intriguing. Consisting now of five folios, drawn from three different manuscripts, Cotton MS Titus C XV is good evidence of Sir Robert Cotton\u2019s habits of collection and dismemberment. Folios 2-5 are four leaves of the so-called Codex Purpureus Petropolitanus, a copy of the Four Gospels in Greek written on purple parchment in the sixth century (possibly at Antioch). This manuscript, dismembered in the high Byzantine era, is now scattered across the world (the bulk of the leaves being in the National Library of Russia in Saint Petersburg, hence the manuscript\u2019s name).\nFragment of the Codex Purpureus Petropolitanus, 6th century, Cotton MS Titus C XV, f. 4v\nPerhaps even more intriguing is the first folio. Mounted on a blank sheet of parchment is a border cut from the Breviary of Margaret of York, a 15th-century manuscript written in Ghent. And inside the border is a small scrap of papyrus (125 x 60 mm), dating from the late 6th or early 7th century:\nDetail of a papyrus fragment surrounded by a border from the Breviary of Margaret of York, Cotton MS Titus C XV, f. 1r\nThis may well be the first papyrus to enter the British Museum, given that the Cotton library formed one of the foundation collections of the Museum when it was established in 1753. Somewhat surprisingly, though, it was not until 2000 that this fragment was edited and published, by Robert Babcock, in an article in Scriptorium (54.2, pp. 280-88). He identified it as a fragment from a papyrus codex of Pope Gregory the Great\u2019s Forty Homiles on the Gospels. Given the date suggested by the hand, it is very likely that this codex was copied in Gregory\u2019s own lifetime. The hand also suggests that the codex was written in France or Italy, raising the tantalising possibility that Gregory himself may have been responsible for its commissioning.\nDetail of the papyrus fragment, Cotton MS Titus C XV, f. 1r\nHow did the papyrus end up in Cotton\u2019s collection? There are no records that might help us, here, unfortunately, but Babcock argues that it is most likely that the papyrus was already in England when Cotton acquired it \u2013 and if so, it may well have been in England for centuries. At this point we are into the realm of educated guesswork and speculation. But it is not impossible that the codex could have come over with early missionaries sent to England by Gregory. It could even be the case that it was an early copy of the Homilies (completed in 592-3) brought over by Augustine of Canterbury when he arrived in Kent in 597. But if nothing else, we have here the earliest attestation for Gregory\u2019s Homilies on the Gospels, and a fascinating story about a very unusual papyrus.\n- Cillian O\u2019Hogan\nThe Medieval Manuscripts Blog is delighted to be shortlisted for the National UK Blog Awards (Arts & Culture category).

+{"text": "Investing in Quality Tyres is Essential for Safe Driving\nWhen it comes to ensuring a safe driving experience, one of the most important factors to consider is the quality of your tyres. Whether you are driving a compact car or a luxury vehicle like a 5 Series BMW, the condition of your tyres plays a crucial role in maintaining control and stability on the road. Additionally, changing brake pads and discs in a timely manner is equally important to ensure optimum braking performance. In this article, we will discuss why investing in quality tyres and keeping your brake pads and discs in good condition is essential for safe driving.\nOne of the main reasons to invest in high-quality tyres is for improved traction and grip. Tyres that are worn out or of poor quality can significantly decrease your ability to control your vehicle, especially on wet or slippery surfaces. This increases the risk of accidents, as you may experience difficulty in steering and braking properly. Moreover, investing in tyres designed for specific weather conditions, such as winter or all-season tyres, can further enhance your safety on the road, providing better traction in adverse conditions.\nEqually important is the regular inspection and maintenance of brake pads and discs. The brakes are one of the most critical safety components of a vehicle, and failing brakes can have disastrous consequences. As soon as you notice any signs of wear or reduced braking efficiency, it is crucial to have your brake pads and discs replaced promptly. Neglecting this maintenance can increase your stopping distance, making it difficult to avoid collisions or stop in unexpected situations.\nIn the case of a 5 Series BMW, choosing the right brake pads and discs is essential due to the high performance and power of the vehicle. OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) brake pads and discs or high-quality aftermarket options specifically designed for BMW models should be used. This ensures proper fitment and compatibility, allowing your BMW to perform at its best in terms of braking efficiency and responsiveness.\nIn conclusion, investing in quality tyres and promptly changing brake pads and discs is crucial for safe driving. By doing so, you can greatly improve your vehicle\u2019s handling, control, and braking performance. Whether you are driving a 5 Series BMW or any other car, it is essential to choose tyres that are appropriate for your driving conditions and vehicle requirements. Additionally, regularly inspecting and maintaining your brake pads and discs will ensure that your braking system is functioning optimally, reducing the risk of accidents. Remember, when it comes to your safety and the safety of others on the road, it is always worth investing in quality tyres and maintaining your braking system to the highest standards possible.\nFor more information visit:\nRealdeal Mobile Tyres and Mechanics/Auto Electrics | mobile tyre fitting | Green Wrythe Lane, Carshalton, UK\nRealdeal Mobile Tyres and Mechanicals Service Ltd provides Mobile Tyre Fitting, Mechanics, and Auto Electrical services in Carshalton, Wallington, Sutton, Morden, and surrounding areas.

+{"text": "The initiative \"Youth against Substance Abuse in Nigeria\" addresses Substance Abuse in Nigeria by sensitizing and empowering youth leaders in the country. Youths are targeted because of their strategic roles in influencing their peers. The goal of the project is to significantly reduce substance abuse among youths in Nigeria. The project comprises a mass sensitization campaign, a workshop & a contest. The project is expected to directly impact 100 youth leaders and 5,000 youths indirectly\nThe recent investigative report released by the BBC confirmed what we at HEI already suspected, that the drug abuse by youths (defined as being between the ages of 18-35) in Nigeria is widespread and even on the rise. This poses a major problem for an already struggling economy as this age group form the major part of the productive populace of Nigeria. The long term effects are enormous; such vices are known to affect productivity of an individual, and places a burden on public health systems\nThis project strategically targets youths across various sectors in Nigeria. We intend to do an online and offline sensitization campaign, hold a contest for these youth leaders to submit a socially impactful idea to curb substance abuse, and then hold a workshop to train them on preventing and addressing the subject matter in their various organizations. By targeting youth leaders, we will be indirectly reaching those under them, and possibly those engaged in the vice.\nWe believe that these youth leaders can act as ambassadors of the message of substance abuse prevention for a long time. We hope that the ideas submitted for the socially impactful projects will form the basis of advocacy to the government on the best course of action to take in solving this menace. This project has the potential to become a national initiative reaching far and wide across Nigeria, and can even be extended to smaller age groups."}

Political instability, natural disasters, and internal ethnic infighting have led to a devastating lack of opportunity for the people of Myanmar.\nPoverty and political unrest are at the heart of Myanmar's human trafficking crisis, which has only grown more severe over recent years. The economic collapse, brought on by the pandemic and political crisis, has exacerbated the level of human trafficking and the need for non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and other not-for-profit organizations like Eden to fill this void and provide essential support to victims of human trafficking and sexual exploitation.\nThrough a relationship-focused and trauma-informed approach to programming, Eden is able to reach both individuals at high risk of trafficking and victims of human trafficking in the red-light districts of Yangon, and Northern and Eastern Shan state. This access has allowed Eden to identify and assist previously unknown victims of human trafficking, as well as collect vital migration tracking data. This unique design of programming is proven to address the root cause of their trafficking by reducing re-trafficking rates and facilitating sustainable reintegration after program graduation.\nAll profits from our jewelry sales directly benefit the women at Eden and support the following programs:\n- Drop-in Centers\n- Emergency Shelters\n- Trauma Counseling\n- Vocational Training\n- Economic Empowerment\n- Community Education\nFREE postage Australia wide for all purchases over $100!\nFlat rate shipping within Australia is $15 for orders under $100.We also offer worldwide shipping, which is calculated at a custom rate at checkout.\nEmail us as soon as you can.

+{"text": "Photo Caption: A four-hour SAE Baja race is a muddy marathon.\nSafety goggles are required gear in many campus labs. Mechanical engineering graduate student Sam Markkula and his teammates just prefer one that also requires a helmet, rollbars and lots of mud.\nMarkkula is a member of the UMBC chapter of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), a student club of hands-on engineers who design, build and race an off-road vehicle for Baja SAE, a series of annual endurance races against national and international competition.\nThe group just returned triumphant from the SAE Baja East race in Auburn, Alabama, with the best overall score (7th out of 100 teams) in UMBC SAE history. Team UMBC finished ahead of cars from Georgia Tech, Auburn University, Johns Hopkins, Cornell, Bucknell, Virginia Tech and other prestigious universities.\n\u201cOur months and countless hours of hard work have definitely paid off,\u201d said Mark Foster, a senior mechanical engineering major and president of UMBC Baja SAE.\nIn addition to a four-hour long endurance race, Baja SAE teams are graded on their cars\u2019 maneuverability, suspension, traction, speed, ergonomics and production cost. The 2009 UMBC team continued its tradition of excelling in the cost category, achieving their Top 10 overall results with the cheapest-to-produce car in the field.\n\u201cUMBC's Baja SAE team is now in the top 10 nationwide, but in our eyes, they are number one,\u201d said Shlomo Carmi, professor and chair of mechanical engineering. \u201cIt is especially impressive that during this difficult budget cycle, they delivered again on the \u2018best bang for the buck.\u2019 We are so proud of this team of outstanding students.\u201d\nThe Baja SAE endurance race is a sensory overload of noise and nerves. Drivers have to resist the urge to drive at top speeds so the car can last the entire duration without being disqualified, tumbling down steep hills, or crashing into logs, rocks and other cars. Other team members serve as pit crew for fuel or repair stops.\n\u201cImagine over 100 lawnmowers all running in close proximity,\u201d said Markkula. \u201cIt\u2019s quite loud. We cleaned off at least 30 pounds of mud from each car, and the drivers probably have breathed in at least a half pound by the end of the race.\u201d\nThis year\u2019s team owes a tip of the helmet to nearby Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC) Catonsville. A change to an independent rear suspension required moving and custom-designing the gearbox. The UMBC team was fortunate to receive help from Bill Werneke, an expert machinist and instructor of CCBC-Catonsville\u2019s manufacturing technology program.\nWerneke programmed blueprints for the gearbox design into computer-assisted manufacturing and design software, and built the rig in the workshop with the help of his students. Werneke and the CCBC program serve as an apprenticeship path and hands-on training for future machinists from across Maryland.\nBaja SAE is open to graduate or undergraduate students willing to contribute their time, learn how to operate the shop tools and who are in good academic standing. UMBC Baja SAE is advised by mechanical engineering professor Tony Farquhar.\nThe UMBC team\u2019s next race is in Wisconsin in June.

+{"text": "God is our refuge and strength,\na very present help in trouble.\n2 Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way,\nthough the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea,\n3 though its waters roar and foam,\nthough the mountains tremble at its swelling. \u2013 Psalm 46:1-3\nHave you ever been caught in an unexpected downpour of rain? This happened to me one summer evening as I was walking back to my car after dinner with some friends. Without any rain gear or an umbrella, we were totally exposed to this sudden rainstorm. When we finally got to the car, we were overcome with a sense of relief \u2013 we had found refuge, a place of protection and security. Every inch of our body was soaked through, but we were safe.\nRight now, the world feels like we are caught in an unexpected summer shower (or perhaps an unexpected hurricane). We feel exposed, vulnerable, unsure of where we are truly safe. For most of us, this fear of exposure to disease is a new sensation; we have never faced the reality of an invisible virus that could be lurking around any corner. Normal life activities that once seemed mundane \u2013 like running errands or being with our friends \u2013 now might make us feel anxious and insecure.\nPsalm 46 reminds us that we have a hope in Jesus as our refuge, a place we can run to for protection from life\u2019s unexpected and scary moments. Even when we feel totally exposed\u2014like being caught in a summer shower without an umbrella\u2014we have a very present refuge in Jesus. Later in the psalm, the psalmist describes Jesus as a fortress, indicating that Jesus is strong enough to protect us from the fiercest of our enemies. Yet there is also a great tenderness about our refuge in Jesus: His presence is not only strong, but safe and comforting, like burying yourself the warmth of your bed on a cold evening.\nUnlike an umbrella that might blow away with the wind, Jesus is a refuge that can never be moved. Because He is the God of the universe, the One who \u201cupholds the universe by the word of his power,\u201d we have the assurance that running to Jesus for refuge is the safest place we could ever be (Hebrews 1:3). And because we are united to Jesus by faith, we don\u2019t have to run far to find shelter\u2014we have access to the stronghold of Jesus at all times in all places. As we live in these uncertain times, let us fix our eyes on where our truest safety is found: our refuge Jesus Christ. Psalm 46 reminds us that when we feel unsafe, scared, or unprotected, we can run to Jesus and rest in the presence of His perfect protection. We can take refuge in His Word, ask Him to be our shelter in prayer, and remind ourselves\u2014as well as our family in Christ\u2014that God is the best place to find our sense of peace and security.\nPsalm 46 ends with a charge to \u201cbe still, and know that I am God.\u201d What a comfort! Taking refuge in God, our fortress, means we can rest, be still, and know that He is God. We are praying this over your community today as we all gather for refuge in the shelter of our strong and comforting God.\n- Where are some places you typically run for refuge when you are feeling scared or anxious? Your phone? A friend? Burying yourself in school work? How is God a far more secure shelter than the other places we look for refuge?\n- When was the last time you felt afraid or unprotected and you found refuge in God? How did God end up protecting you?\n- What is the place of your life that feels the most unprotected or unstable right now? How can you run to God and take shelter in Him today?"}

Louisa Iris Arde on 11th May, 2023 led officials of the National Youth Authority (NYA) headed by the Western Regional Director, Mr. Edwin Amponsah to inspect a site earmarked for the construction of a Youth Resource Centre at Elubo.\nAccording to a research conducted by the National Youth Authority, it has been identified that there are a lot of crime related activities in Elubo including drug trafficking and illegal mining. Recently, there have been cases of human trafficking where Ghanaians and other foreign nationals were arrested for attempting to traffic young girls to Cote D\u2019Ivoire for prostitution. Ghana has been losing thousands if not millions of cedis to smugglers who are mostly unemployed youth at various unapproved routes at Elubo.\nThe causal factors include:\nlack of access to youth resource centres\nLack of support systems and business opportunities\nInadequate psycho-social counsellors.\nInadequate knowledge of SRH issues\nweak institutional linkages\nPer the research, it is evident that there is the need for the establishment of a youth resource centre in Elubo to address these challenges. Taking cognisance of the vital ingredients that go into the establishment of such centres, strategic partnerships should be built to ensure their functionality.\nThe project goal is to provide youth friendly services and economic empowerment opportunities to the border communities of both countries.\nThe project aims to construct a well-equipped youth resource center where young people can have access to ASRH information, psycho-social counselling, job opportunities and business support services. Volunteers will be recruited through NYA\u2019s National Youth Volunteer Program to execute this project.

+{"text": "Prostate cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the prostate gland, which is a small walnut-shaped gland located below the bladder in men. The prostate gland produces seminal fluid that nourishes and transports sperm. Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men, but with early detection and appropriate treatment, many cases can be effectively managed.\nCauses and Risk Factors\nThe exact cause of prostate cancer is not fully understood, but certain risk factors can increase the likelihood of its development:\n- Age: Prostate cancer is more common in older men, with the risk increasing significantly after the age of 50.\n- Family History: Having a family history of prostate cancer, especially in a first-degree relative, can increase the risk.\n- Race/Ethnicity: African American men have a higher risk of developing prostate cancer, and it often tends to be more aggressive in this population.\n- Obesity: Being overweight or obese may increase the risk of developing aggressive forms of prostate cancer.\nIn the early stages, prostate cancer may not cause noticeable symptoms. As the cancer progresses, symptoms might include:\n- Frequent urination, especially at night.\n- Difficulty starting or stopping urination.\n- Weak or interrupted urine flow.\n- Blood in the urine or semen.\n- Erectile dysfunction.\n- Discomfort or pain in the pelvic area.\n- Prostate cancer is often detected through routine screenings, primarily the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test and digital rectal examination (DRE).\n- If the PSA level is elevated or if an abnormality is felt during the DRE, further tests, such as a prostate biopsy, may be recommended.\nStaging and Grading\n- Staging determines the extent and spread of the cancer within the prostate and nearby tissues. The TNM system (Tumor, Node, Metastasis) is commonly used for staging.\n- Grading is done using the Gleason score, which assesses the appearance of cancer cells under a microscope. The score helps predict how aggressive the cancer is.\n- Treatment options for prostate cancer depend on factors such as the stage of the cancer, the patient\u2019s overall health, and individual preferences.\n- Active Surveillance: For low-risk cases, especially in older men, active surveillance involves closely monitoring the cancer without immediate treatment.\n- Surgery: Surgical removal of the prostate (prostatectomy) is a common treatment option, which can be done through open surgery or minimally invasive techniques like robotic-assisted surgery.\n- Radiation Therapy: High-energy radiation is used to target and kill cancer cells.\n- Hormone Therapy: Reducing levels of male hormones (androgens) can slow the growth of prostate cancer cells.\n- Chemotherapy: Medications are used to kill cancer cells or slow their growth.\n- Immunotherapy and Targeted Therapy: These newer approaches harness the immune system or target specific molecules involved in cancer growth.\nThe prognosis for prostate cancer varies widely based on factors like the stage at diagnosis, the aggressiveness of the cancer, and the effectiveness of treatment. Many cases of prostate cancer are slow-growing and may not require immediate aggressive treatment.\nScreening, early detection, and open communication with healthcare providers are key factors in managing prostate cancer effectively. Regular check-ups and discussions with a healthcare provider can help determine the best course of action based on individual circumstances and preferences."}

However, it is interesting to know that that tense inertia tends to go from the material to the spiritual, up to where it is accessible through experience.\nThe critical-analytical talent of Virgo is formidable and among the great geniuses of this sign is Goethe who succeeded in transcending the material, inertia, and entered high scientific spirituality.\nNonetheless, all Virgo natives are not Goethe. Ordinarily, the materialists, atheists and enemies of everything that smells of spirituality abound among the mediocre of this sign.\nThe egotism of the mediocre people of Virgo is something too grotesque and repugnant, but the Goethe of Virgo are genial and highly altruistic and profoundly disinterested.\n\"Esoteric Treatise of Hermetic Astrology\" - SAMAEL AUN WEOR\nGoto Image Gallery Astrology and Zodiac - Johfra Bosschart\n|< Zodiacal Sign of LEO\n|Zodiacal Sign of LIBRA >\n|\u0928\u094b\u0938\u093f\u0938 \u0914\u0930 \u0928\u094b\u0938\u094d\u0924\u093f\u0938\u093f\u0938\u094d\u092e\n|\u092e\u093e\u0928\u0938\u093f\u0915\u0924\u093e \u0914\u0930 \u0906\u0924\u094d\u092e\u091c\u094d\u091e\u093e\u0928\n|\u091a\u0947\u0924\u0928\u093e \u0915\u093e \u092a\u0930\u093f\u0935\u0930\u094d\u0924\u0928\n|\u0915\u093e\u092c\u0932\u093e\u0939 \u0914\u0930 \u092e\u0928\u0941\u0937\u094d\u092f \u0915\u0940 \u0930\u091a\u0928\u093e\n|\u0906\u0924\u094d\u092e\u093e \u0915\u093e \u0905\u0927\u094d\u092f\u092f\u0928\n|\u091c\u0940\u0935\u0928 \u0914\u0930 \u092e\u0943\u0924\u094d\u092f\u0941 \u0915\u0947 \u0930\u0942\u092a\n|\u091c\u094d\u092f\u094b\u0924\u093f\u0937 \u0935\u093f\u0926\u094d\u092f\u093e/ \u091c\u094d\u092f\u094b\u0924\u093f\u0937 \u091a\u0915\u094d\u0930\n|\u0938\u093e\u0930\u094d\u0935\u0932\u094c\u0915\u093f\u0915 \u0928\u094b\u0938\u094d\u0924\u093f\u0938\u093f\u0938\u094d\u092e \u0915\u0947 \u092e\u0939\u093e\u0928 \u0917\u0941\u0923\n|\u0905\u092d\u094d\u092f\u093e\u0938\u093f\u0915 \u0928\u094b\u0938\u093f\u0938 \u0914\u0930 \u0927\u094d\u092f\u093e\u0928"}

+{"text": "In 1991, when Details of Classic Boat Construction first appeared (published by W.W. Norton), I rushed to get a copy. I wasn\u2019t disappointed. Larry Pardey and his wife, Lin, built their cutter, Seraffyn, themselves, the old fashioned way \u2013 plank on frame. And what a beautiful job they did on her. What\u2019s more, they\u2019ve lived aboard and cruised extensively for many hard ocean miles. This combination of practical boatbuilding combined with practical voyaging gives Larry a unique and valuable perspective.\nThe current, slightly revised, edition is very similar to the first edition of the book. It provides one of very finest step-by-step explanations of the hows and the whys of traditional carvel boatbuilding ever published. Extraordinarily clear process photos and line drawings make things plainer still.\nI did have reservations about a couple of items. Larry includes lists of the pros and cons of various construction methods and options. I found these lists to be weighted toward traditional techniques. Such traditional techniques are excellent, but I could redo many of the pro-and-con lists quite differently, reaching substantially different conclusions.\nThe other reservation is that Larry comes out full-bore and guns blazing against the use of modern marine epoxy for virtually any boatbuilding application. Indeed, this \u2014 he stated \u2014 was one of the reasons he revised and reissued Details of Classic Boat Construction. He provides examples of epoxy failures and lists many epoxy shortcomings. As with his comparative lists, however \u2013 strong as his condemnation of epoxy is \u2013 I, and the boatbuilders I work with, can\u2019t agree. I have designed several entirely wood-epoxy craft, now many years old. One 42-footer, for instance, has over 10,000 miles on her, 70 percent of them in southern waters, and she\u2019s good as new. Yards like Rybovitch Spencer, Covey Island Boatworks, Van Dam Marine, and many others have built literally hundreds of wood-epoxy vessels, which have proven incredibly tough, long-lived, and maintenance-free.\nSo, do these two reservations detract seriously from the book as a whole? Not at all. The explanations of plank-on-frame construction are so clear and comprehensive that everyone who owns a traditional wooden boat, is repairing one, or is building one really should have a copy of this book for reference. Even builders of modern wood-epoxy boats will benefit from the superb construction information in Details of Classic Boat Construction \u2013 The Hull. I consider it a must-read and hope Larry will go on and write future volumes on the cabin and fitting out."}
+{"text": "- Gradient Descent Finds Global Minima for Generalizable Deep Neural Networks of Practical Sizes(arXiv)\nAbstract : In this paper, we theoretically prove that gradient descent can find a global minimum of non-convex optimization of all layers for nonlinear deep neural networks of sizes commonly encountered in practice. The theory developed in this paper only requires the practical degrees of over-parameterization unlike previous theories. Our theory only requires the number of trainable parameters to increase linearly as the number of training samples increases. This allows the size of the deep neural networks to be consistent with practice and to be several orders of magnitude smaller than that required by the previous theories. Moreover, we prove that the linear increase of the size of the network is the optimal rate and that it cannot be improved, except by a logarithmic factor. Furthermore, deep neural networks with the trainability guarantee are shown to generalize well to unseen test samples with a natural dataset but not a random dataset.\n2. Gradient Descent Finds Global Minima of Deep Neural Networks (arXiv)\nAbstract : Gradient descent finds a global minimum in training deep neural networks despite the objective function being non-convex. The current paper proves gradient descent achieves zero training loss in polynomial time for a deep over-parameterized neural network with residual connections (ResNet). Our analysis relies on the particular structure of the Gram matrix induced by the neural network architecture. This structure allows us to show the Gram matrix is stable throughout the training process and this stability implies the global optimality of the gradient descent algorithm. We further extend our analysis to deep residual convolutional neural networks and obtain a similar convergence resul"}

It\u2019s quite low gravity, only around seven units, and very cold.\nThe world orbits a dwarf star in the thin band of warmth sufficient for the surface of the planet to support oxygen, water, and other things to keep the planet\u2019s Human populace alive. Humanity, however, has to cling to the equatorial (approximately) one-third of the surface as the more polar regions can reach incredibly low temperatures \u2013 during some years, low enough to precipitate some of the vital gasses out of the atmosphere at the poles themselves.\nDespite this, the planet has a remarkably robust biosphere, even more amazingly it possesses such a biosphere from pole to pole.\nNear the equator the biology of the world is largely a mix of tundras, cold-swamps, and ice-jungle, with typical temperate zones hugging the few degrees above and below the actual equator. Approaching the poles you find a shift toward silicate life, and other ice-world biologies as well as unusual forms extremophilic carbon/water life. Plants on Nor\u0135ek are more closely related to ferns, and some do not metabolise carbon dioxide, but various ammonia-based gases instead. Most life on the planet is found under its considerable ocean, which is exceedingly deep for a world so small and filled with geothermal vents than keep the lower reaches liquid. Underwater all forms of life from bacteria to fungus to reptiles to mammals can be found. On the surface it is primarily insects, saurians, and a few mammals as well as the fern-like planets.\nGeologically there are two major continents and one minor one which have only separated from a single continent in the last 500,000 standard years so are fairly close together. There are also numerous archipelagos of volcanic islands scattered around the ocean. Geysers abound on the landmasses, and the hot springs tend to be the population centres for the Nor\u0135ek\u00e9 whether you mean Human or animal.\nEconomically the world is part of the Galfarran Union and while on the poorer end of the spectrum is still considered \u201caverage wealth\u201d by the Galfarran Trade Council. Their major exports are in a few exotic alloys that are produced in the planet\u2019s mantle and collected at lava flows (for example, Nor\u0135ek is the best source for bleth\u0135\u015d); their woodcrafts have long been a powerful artisan market as the profoundly long and isolating winters leave plenty of time to perfect handcrafts which couples well with the extreme beauty of the wood of Nor\u0135ek\u2019s few species of tree; they also produce many raw goods needed by various cosmetics industries in the form of oils, volcanic rocks, etc.\nNo worlds in the Nor\u0135ek system have moons, but the first four planets, Nor\u0135ek being the third, are all so close to each other and their star that they can be seen quite clearly in one another\u2019s skies.\nNor\u0135ek\u2019s orbit, being so small, does give it a very short year, being only slightly longer than a standard korva, and it has a rotation of approximately 29 nulaire 7\u2154 saenead."}
+{"text": "In Advanced LIGO, detection and astrophysical source parameter estimation of the binary black hole merger GW150914 requires a calibrated estimate of the gravitational-wave strain sensed by the detectors. Producing an estimate from each detector's differential arm length control loop readout signals requires applying time domain filters, which are designed from a frequency domain model of the detector's gravitational-wave response. The gravitational-wave response model is determined by the detector's opto-mechanical response and the properties of its feedback control system. The measurements used to validate the model and characterize its uncertainty are derived primarily from a dedicated photon radiation pressure actuator, with cross-checks provided by optical and radio frequency references. We describe how the gravitational-wave readout signal is calibrated into equivalent gravitational-wave-induced strain and how the statistical uncertainties and systematic errors are assessed. Detector data collected over 38 calendar days, from September 12 to October 20, 2015, contain the event GW150914 and approximately 16 days of coincident data used to estimate the event false alarm probability. The calibration uncertainty is less than 10% in magnitude and 10\u00b0 in phase across the relevant frequency band, 20 Hz to 1 kHz.\nASJC Scopus subject areas\n- Physics and Astronomy (miscellaneous)"}
+{"text": "The method looks to vastly improve on current conventional methods of drug delivery such as tablets or injections. Whilst convenient and relatively cheap to manufacture, this method of drug delivery suffers from an initial spike of therapeutic agent followed by a period of decay.\nDosage is also frequently limited by adverse side effects caused by the sudden elevation of drug suddenly introduced to the body.\nThe patent details an alternative that uses a polymer made from microspheres/nanospheres. Following administration via ingestion or injection, the polymer is slowly eroded by body fluids to yield biocompatible the therapeutic product. The drug is then released from a polymeric particle by diffusion through the polymer matrix as well as by surface erosion.\nIn producing the polymer, Aphios uses supercritical fluids - a material which can be either liquid or gas that exhibit unique properties under certain conditions. It is used in a state above the critical temperature and critical pressure where gases and liquids can coexist.\nBy dissolving a biodegradable polymer such as PLGA in the fluid and mixing it with the therapeutic, polymer nanospheres are formed after undergoing a number of processes. These polymer nanospheres encapsulate the protein therapeutics.\n\u201cIn addition to reduction or elimination of organic solvent usage, use of SuperFluids for making nanospheres imparts advantages of no residual toxic organic solvent and pathogen safety,\u201d Aphios claimed.\n\u201cThe SuperFluids polymer nanospheres (PNS) process can be utilised for improving the oral bioavailability of peptides and proteins, depot delivery of peptides and proteins for sustained, controlled release and the subcutaneous and/or oral delivery of sensitive vaccine antigens,\u201d they added.\nThe use of degradable polymers as a method for controlled release of therapeutic agents is an area of great importance to the pharmaceutical industry, and the patients that depend on the medication.\nThese polymers that use supercritical fluids in their production are currently being applied in numerous ways, such as increasing bioavailability of poorly soluble molecules, to designing formulations for sustained release.\nThe most difficult challenges relate to therapeutic proteins, which are complex to deliver due to their instability and very short half-life when introduced to the human body.\nIndustrial-wise, current conventional large-scale production of polymeric microspheres that utilise numerous processing steps and large quantities of organic solvents is very time consuming, costly and inefficient.\nIn addition, the exposure of therapeutic agents to organic solvent adversely effects protein integrity and bioactivity.\nThe patent: \u201cPolymer Microspheres/Nanospheres and Encapsulating Therapeutic Proteins Therein,\u201d can be viewed here."}

+{"text": "From classical antiquity, through early fables such as Johannes Kepler\u2019s Somnium (1634) or Francis Godwin\u2019s The Man in the Moone (1638), to Martian invasions like the one described by H. G. Wells, for most of our history we have taken for granted that the worlds closest to Earth must be inhabited. There was no reason to think otherwise\u2014that is, until science actually began finding them. For a planet to be habitable, several circumstances that are not particularly abundant have to come together. Today we know that there is no intelligent life on the Moon, Venus and Mars, but we also know that in our galaxy alone there are possibly billions of planets. With today\u2019s science, how many of them might resemble our own world and even harbour beings with whom we could communicate?\nIn 1995, astronomers Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz detected the first exoplanet in a Sun-like star, 51 Pegasi b (today called Dimidium). Three years earlier, Aleksander Wolszczan and Dale Frail had discovered the first confirmed extrasolar planets, but these orbited around a pulsar, so they were not suitable for life. And although with an estimated surface temperature of nearly 1,000\u00b0C the planet discovered by Mayor and Queloz is also an uninhabitable hell, their discovery launched the hunt for possible terrestrial twins.\nAs of this writing in October 2021, 4,852 exoplanets have been confirmed in 3,586 star systems, 800 of which have more than one planet, but these numbers are growing steadily. The vast majority have been detected by the transit method\u2014when a planet crosses in front of its star from our point of view, the star\u2019s light dims slightly. This method therefore finds gas giant planets more easily and is limited to those whose transit is visible from Earth. With the data obtained, astronomers can estimate certain characteristics, such as mass, size, possible composition, proximity to the star and temperature. In this way astronomers can ascertain whether a planet is a candidate to harbour life as we know it.\nAmong the telescopes that have been used to detect exoplanets, the biggest hunter of other worlds has been NASA\u2019s Kepler space telescope. Launched in 2009, its mission was planned for three and a half years, during which it would survey some 150,000 stars in a region of the sky near the constellation Cygnus (the swan). Despite certain mechanical problems that limited its functionality, the mission was able to be extended until October 2018, when the telescope finally exhausted its fuel. During its more than nine years of life, Kepler observed 530,506 stars and discovered 2,662 new worlds. In 2018, NASA\u2019s TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) took over from Kepler, and in 2019 the European Space Agency (ESA) launched CHEOPS (CHaracterising ExOPlanets Satellite) to characterise already known exoplanets.\nOf all the confirmed exoplanets, only a small minority are terrestrial (rocky). Although we can never know the total number of these planets in the whole universe, let alone whether there is life on them, advances in science allow us to narrow down the estimates. One 2020 study that analysed Kepler data calculated that the Milky Way could harbour as many as six billion Earth-like planets, while another estimated the number of potentially habitable planets in our galaxy at about 300 million. But we are only just beginning to scratch the surface of the universe."}

Anyone relate to this?\nLife became so full of sleeping schedules (sorry, what schedules?!), nappies, cute smiles then laughter (oh my goodness \u2013 when Noa first started laughing!), shower time, bath time and finding my feet as a mum.\nFor someone who prior to having a baby spent pretty much ALL her time catering retreats, driving to new locations, creating events, and thinking about sharing her love of food with the world, it was quite a shocking change (I think it\u2019s a shock for most mammas to be fair, I mean we USED to sleep through the night!).\nAt first there was a stunning feeling of euphoria, having this deliciously tiny being to look after. It was something I\u2019d dreamt of for a very long time and it was entirely blissful. But after a few months I noticed that I felt out of practice professionally and fear began to creep in that my days of running my beautiful business were numbered. Really. Thoughts like \u2018my ship has sailed\u2019 moved through my mind and I wholeheartedly believed them for a while.\nSitting back in my fear with a small baby to care for was hard, and sitting there watching all my amazing friends and colleagues kicking professional goals (while over the moon for them), just played into these insecurities even more.\nFear drove my mind space for a while, until I remembered something\u2026\nIt\u2019s all made up!\nYup, it\u2019s all made up. Meaning, if I say my ship has sailed, then so be it; but if I say the best is yet to come, then so be that. And I say, the BEST is yet to come!\nI laughed so hard on remembering that. Even with the hundreds of hours of personal development training I\u2019ve done over the last 10 years, I still let that old chestnut drive from time to time.\nAnd just like that, I watched myself switch back on.\nI\u2019m here to share my love of nourishment with the world, and to live a life of purpose. That\u2019s what fulfils me. It\u2019s what inspires me. Reminding yourself that it\u2019s all made up is important when you are creating the life you want.\nSo next time life doesn\u2019t go the way you plan: remember that the plan was made up anyway, so go make up a new one!

+{"text": "Probabilistic safety via stochastic reachability: Application to autonomous systems and to physiological systems\nAdd to Google Calendar\nAssurances of safety in autonomous systems are complicated by stochasticity, from human-on-the-loop actions, disturbance effects, and inevitable limitations in mathematical models. Nascent theoretical results have been limited by computational complexity, as the underlying solution is based on dynamic programming with a multiplicative cost function. We describe an approach based in Fourier transforms, which provides an exact solution for uncontrolled systems, and an underapproximation for systems with a control input. This method enables high dimensional stochastic viability and reachability calculations, and has been applied to problems in collaborative robot navigation, dynamic target capture, satellite rendezvous and docking, and circadian entrainment. Applying these methods to physiological systems is complicated by characterization of the underlying dynamical system. We describe efforts to characterize feedback mechanisms in Parkinson's disease, with the ultimate goal of synthesizing probabilistically safe controllers to mitigate motor symptoms. When coupled with methods for characterization of human action and response, methods for probabilistic safety could form the basis for analysis and design of high-dimensional human-in-the-loop systems.\nMeeko Oishi is an Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of New Mexico.

+{"text": "The hormone estrogen can sharpen mental performance, and now scientists think they know why. Estrogen may boost the number of connections between brain cells, improving communication in the brain.\nThe work was presented today (Nov. 17) at the Society for Neuroscience meeting in San Diego.\nPrevious work has shown that giving estrogen to both animals and people can improve their memory and increase accuracy on tests.\nIn the new study, researchers at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine treated rat brain cells grown in a dish with a compound similar to estrogen. The compound activated the cells' estrogen receptors, setting off a chain of chemical reactions inside the cells. This in turn caused an increase in the cell's number of dendritic spines hair-like protrusions on the surface of cells that allow them to talk to each other.\n\"What this told us is that if you specifically activated the [estrogen receptor] you can potentially increase the amount of information that could go from one cell to another,\" study researcher Deepak Srivastava said.\nIt has also been theorized that estrogen treatments could improve symptoms of Alzheimer's and schizophrenia. However, long-term use of estrogen as a therapy has been shown to be problematic results from the Women's Health Initiative in 2002 found that women taking estrogen to relieve symptoms of menopause were at increased risk for breast cancer , stroke and heart attack.\nBecause of these risks, researchers have been searching for a way to activate the estrogen receptors without using estrogen itself. This would allow patients to get the benefits of estrogen without the detrimental effects, Srivastava said.\nThe compound in the study does indeed provide a way to mimic estrogen's effects. However, the researchers noted they cannot be sure whether this compound would also cause side effects similar to those of estrogen.\nAnd much more research needs to be done to determine if the same effect an increase in communication between cells would occur inside people's brains.\nBut the researchers have reason to believe boosting the number of dendirtic spines in Alzheimer's and schizophrenia patients may be beneficial.

+{"text": "Tuesday, 11 February 2003\nA LEO-LEO Occultation Observing System for Characterizing Atmospheric Humidity, Clouds, Temperature, Geopotential, and Ozone\nOur quest towards a deeper understanding of weather and climate and a significantly improved skill to predict their future behavior depends critically on our knowledge of the present structure of atmospheric water and its variations. Here we present and discuss a particular implementation of the spacecraft radio occultation technique designed to characterize the thermodynamic and compositional structure of the atmosphere referred to as BRIGHTOC (Bi-static Radar Imaging of Geopotential, Humidity, Temperature, Ozone and Clouds). The concept works by transmitting tones near the 22 and 183 GHz water lines from one LEO across the limb of the atmosphere to another LEO. The measured delay and attenuation of the signal experienced as it propagates through the atmosphere can be inverted to recover atmospheric moisture, temperature and the geopotential of pressure surfaces. In clear sky conditions, our analysis indicates this limb-viewing system will retrieve horizontally-averaged water vapor concentrations to ~1-2% precision with ~250 m or better diffraction-limited vertical resolution from near the surface well into the mesosphere (Kursinski etr al., 2002a). Absolute accuracy of better than 1% will be achieved through the use of calibration tones and on orbit spectroscopic calibration. Relative humidity can be retrieved to a few % limited primarily by the retrieved temperature accuracy. In cloudy conditions, the performance will be within a factor of ~2 of clear sky performance and allow characterization of cloud liquid water to ~0.04 g/m3 or better near the surface and significantly better at higher altitudes (Kursinski et al., 2002b). The technique complements nadir viewing sounders which provide better horizontal resolution. Its unique features are well suited to characterizing the present distribution of atmospheric moisture and its variations at unprecedented levels of precision and accuracy. The technique will provide substantial observational constraints on the mechanisms controlling the distribution of atmospheric moisture. A portion of our concept is presently being considered for demonstration in the ESA ACE+ mission to launch in 2007. We will describe the technique and summarize its expected capabilities.\nKursinski, E. R., S. Syndergaard, D. Flittner, D. Feng, G. Hajj, B. Herman, D. Ward, and T.

+{"text": "If you would like to know all about granite countertop including its basic key characteristics, and the processing of granite at quarry, you may find this article quite informative.\nGranite is a natural stone that is extremely durable, making it ideal for many interior and exterior applications. Granite makes an excellent choice for stone countertops, due its beautiful patterns and colors, as well as its durable characteristics.\nWhen it comes to the origins of granite, you may be surprised to know that granite is formed deep inside the earth. Due to the extreme heat and pressure applied by the surrounding over millions of years, liquid magma is molten between other layers of rock, and then hardened as it cools down. Therefore, Granite is considered an igneous rock that is extremely hard, scratch, acid, and heat resistant.\nGranite consists of different elements in nature, such as feldspar, mica, quartz, and other minerals. The process of cooling process is very slow. The suspended mineral elements inside the magma result in the crystalline look of granite. Granite is hard in nature due to its harsh origins and lengthy process that suspends several stabilizing elements within it.\nAs soon as the raw granite is removed from the earth, the first stage of granite processing starts, known as cutting. Here, the large portions of granite cut into manageable blocks. Thereafter, these blocks of granite are cut into slabs with various thicknesses, for their market . Sizes of the slabs vary depending on the size of the block that the quarry was able to process. Thickness of slabs for countertop use varies throughout the US. Part of the country use 2cm (3/4\u2033) slabs for countertops, while in Washington DC metro area a 3cm (1 1/4\u2033) slabs are more common.\nOnce granite blocks are cut into slabs, they are resin coated and then each slab undergoes large multi-head polishing machines that brings out the shine to one side of the granite slabs.\nOnce the process of cutting and polishing is over, six or seven slabs from the same granite block, called bundle, are crated together and get shipped to the stone importers and fabricators across the globe. Stone fabricators, such as Euro Stone Craft factory in Herndon VA, are the last stage for transforming granite slabs into countertops. Through sophisticated CNC machines and waterjets, the slabs are cut to the custom shape of each countertop, edges are profiled and polished, and finally installed at your home, for your enjoyment.\nGranite countertops are ideal for kitchen countertops. Due to the characteristics of the granite, of being scratch, stain, heat, and etch resistant, granite countertops require very little maintenance, and they keep their original appearance for many years to come.\nCare and maintenance of the granite countertops is very simple. A mild PH balance cleaner should be used to clean your countertops. Although the granite countertops are relatively non-porous, we recommend sealing the granite, with a high-quality sealer impregnator."}

All other markings are nonconforming markings. An authorized marking that is not in the form, or differs in substance, from the marking requirements in the clause at 252.227-7014 is also a nonconforming marking.\n(2) The correction of nonconforming markings on computer software is not subject to 252.227-7019 , Validation of Asserted Restrictions\u2014Computer Software, and the correction of nonconforming markings on computer software documentation (technical data) is not subject to 252.227-7037 , Validation of Restrictive Markings on Technical Data. To the extent practicable, the contracting officer should return computer software or computer software documentation bearing nonconforming markings to the person who has placed the nonconforming markings on the software or documentation to provide that person an opportunity to correct or strike the nonconforming markings at that person's expense. If that person fails to correct the nonconformity and return the corrected software or documentation within 60 days following the person's receipt of the software or documentation, the contracting officer may correct or strike the nonconformity at that person's expense.

For example, a restricted rights legend placed on computer software developed under a Government contract either exclusively at Government expense or with mixed funding (situations under which the Government obtains unlimited or government purpose rights) is an unjustified marking.\n(2) Contracting officers have the right to review and challenge the validity of unjustified markings. However, at any time during performance of a contract and notwithstanding existence of a challenge, the contracting officer and the person who has asserted a restrictive marking may agree that the restrictive marking is not justified. Upon such agreement, the contracting officer may, at his or her election, either\u2014\n(i) Strike or correct the unjustified marking at that person's expense; or\n(ii) Return the computer software or computer software documentation to the person asserting the restriction for correction at that person's expense.

+{"text": "A darkly mirthful and alphabetical approach to very bad things from comedian Charles Demers.\nComedian-author Charlie Demers, whose brain-bending brand of black humour will be familiar to followers of CBC Radio's The Debaters, offers his madcap perspective in a new collection of essays highlighting a wide range of topics under the heading of Bad Things. The Horrors is presented abecedarian-style, despoiling a beloved children's book tradition in order to explore personal hangups that range from the slightly awkward to the down-right terrible.\nBeginning with \u2018A\u2019 for \u2018Adolescence,\u2019 Demers recalls his sexless teenage years spent in a Trotskyist sect, and \u2018B\u2019 for \u2018Bombing\u2019 offers a first-person account of the agonies of stand- up comedy gone wrong. \u2018E\u2019 for \u2018End of the World\u2019 explores the wacky world of Preppers (YouTube how-to-prepare-for- the-apocalypse experts), while \u2018F\u2019 for \u2018Fat\u2019 explains what life is like for those with both testicles and breasts. Other essays creep toward the pain side of the hilarity/agony line: \u2018D\u2019 for \u2018Depression\u2019 and \u2018M\u2019 for \u2018Motherlessness\u2019 traverse topics that more balanced minds might hesitate to make light of.\nFortunately, Demers does not let tact or sensibility deter him from pushing humour to its hysterical limit in order to examine our deepest fears. With artful insight, he never minimizes the very real pain inherent in some topics and uses comedy as a catharsis rather than a numbing agent. Dark, smart and funny, in the sunny world of The Book of Awesome and The Happiness Project, The Horrors will be a shadow...or at least a shadow puppet.\nAbout the author\nCharles Demers was born and raised in Vancouver.

+{"text": "As Prepared for Delivery on February 17, 2022\nThank you, Scott. for your presentation.\nI\u2019m supportive of this proposed rule for several reasons.\nFirst, the relative risk to the share insurance fund today for a $15 billion federally insured credit union represents the same relative risk as a $10 billion federally insured credit union did in 2013when tier 1 credit unions first transitioned to the Office of National Examinations and Supervision\u2019s (ONES) supervision.\nSecond, this adjustment will allow NCUA to manage its resources more efficiently by continuing to supervise most tier 1 covered credit union through the Regional Offices. Without this adjustment, the number of covered credit unions supervised by ONES would nearly double in calendar year 2023, requiring substantial reallocation of agency resources. That reallocation would, of course, impact the budget.\nAlso, the regulatory requirements for $10 billion credit unions are not affected by the proposed rule. For example, capital planning and stress testing are triggered at $10 billion in assets. These requirements will remain in effect regardless of supervisory office.\nRight now, the proposed rule contemplates federally insured credit union s between $10 billion and $15 billion that have already transitioned to ONES supervision will remain under ONES supervision. Leaving these credit unions with ONES rather than transitioning them back to the regions is less disruptive to both the credit unions and NCUA.\nScott, how will this change affect tier 1 state- chartered credit unions and supervisors?\nThank you. Mr. Chairman, this concludes my remarks."}
+{"text": "This paper analyzes the maximum steady throughput and optimum media access control (MAC) of a random access system over channels with retransmission gain. The channel is defined by the packet detection probability of each user as a function of the numbers of packet transmissions and collisions. The maximum steady throughput and stability region for two-user channels are obtained in closed form. The conditions that the maximum throughput is reached with control-free MAC are obtained. The well-known results of the orthogonal and the ALOHA channels are shown to be special instances of our results. The throughputs of multiuser symmetric channels and the general multiuser asymmetric channel are further obtained. A practical random access CDMA channel exploiting retransmission diversity is analyzed based on the model. Numerical result confirms with the analytical results. It is conclude that retransmission gain can significantly increase throughput and expand stability region."}

Members of the ITPA groups are chosen by each ITER party as representative top experts of their sub-fields. In the coming 2 years, Citrin will facilitate the group collaboration for updating the Physics Basis for ITER, a once-a-decade review of the status of the field.\nFuture fusion power plants will mimic the nuclear fusion process at the heart of the sun to generate clean energy from abundant resources. In a fusion reactor, careful attention needs to be given to how -for instance- temperature, density, and electric current are distributed throughout the hot fuel mass (a hot, ionized gas called a plasma).\nThe ITPA Transport and Confinement group provides insights from internationally coordinated experiments and modelling on the transport of heat, particles, momentum, and impurities in the fusion plasma. It uses those insights to design further experiments, improve fully predictive computer codes to predict transport in the plasma, and extrapolate to advanced scenarios to operate fusion reactors at high performance."}

+{"text": "Remark code M7 indicates that no further rental payments will be made for a medical item that has been purchased, returned, or when the sum of rental payments made to date equals the purchase price of the item. This means that the payer has determined that the financial obligations for renting the item have been fulfilled and no additional rental reimbursement will be provided.\nCommon causes of code M7 are typically related to the billing and reimbursement process for durable medical equipment (DME). These causes may include:\n1. Incorrect billing of rental items: The healthcare provider may have continued to bill for rental payments even after the purchase price has been met or the item has been returned.\n2. Miscommunication between the provider and the payer: There may have been a lack of clarity or an oversight regarding the terms of the rental agreement, leading to continued billing beyond the agreed terms.\n3. System errors: Automated billing systems may fail to stop rental billing once the purchase price has been reached or if the item is no longer in the patient's possession.\n4. Inaccurate tracking of rental payments: The provider may not have accurately tracked the total amount of rental payments received, resulting in overbilling.\n5. Failure to update the billing status: The provider might not have updated the billing status to reflect that the item has been purchased or returned, causing continued rental charges to be issued.\n6. Delay in processing the purchase or return: There may be a delay in processing the transaction that indicates the item has been purchased or returned, leading to additional rental charges being billed in error.\nAddressing these issues requires careful attention to billing practices, clear communication with payers, and accurate record-keeping to ensure that rental payments are stopped at the appropriate time.\nWays to mitigate code M7 include implementing a robust tracking system for rental and purchased medical equipment. Ensure that your billing department has real-time access to patient equipment records, including rental start and end dates, purchase transactions, and return documentation. Regularly reconcile equipment status with billing records to prevent rental charges post-purchase or return. Establish clear communication channels between the clinical staff responsible for equipment management and the billing team to promptly update any changes in equipment status. Additionally, set up automated alerts to notify the billing department when the total rental payments are approaching the purchase price to avoid overpayments.\nThe steps to address code M7 involve a thorough review of the patient's account to ensure that the billing aligns with the actual status of the medical equipment in question. First, verify the dates of service and the equipment rental period to confirm that no rental claims were submitted after the purchase date or after the rental payments equaled the purchase price. If an overpayment has occurred, process a refund to the payer. If the claim was denied in error, gather documentation that proves the rental was within the appropriate period and resubmit the claim with a detailed explanation. Additionally, update the billing system to reflect the equipment's purchase status to prevent future incorrect rental billings."}

+{"text": "Wabi Sabi is a Japanese aesthetic philosophy that celebrates the beauty of imperfection and impermanence. It values simplicity, natural materials, and the acceptance of transience and decay. Etsy, on the other hand, is an online marketplace that connects buyers and sellers of handmade and vintage items. In this article, we will explore how the Wabi Sabi philosophy is manifested in the products sold on Etsy, how it reflects a cultural trend towards eclecticism and sustainability, and how it has influenced the way we think about beauty and consumerism.\nThe Wabi Sabi Philosophy\nWabi Sabi is grounded in the traditional Japanese worldview that emphasizes the transitory nature of life, the value of simplicity and austerity, and the appreciation of the beauty of natural processes. It is expressed through simple, organic shapes, muted colors, and a sense of rustic elegance. Wabi Sabi values the beauty of imperfection in all its forms, from cracks in pottery to the uneven texture of handmade paper.\nOn Etsy, we can see this philosophy reflected in the use of natural materials like wood, stone, and linen, as well as the prevalence of handmade and vintage items that have a sense of history and authenticity. Many Etsy sellers use traditional crafts techniques and emphasize the unique qualities of each individual piece. Overall, the Wabi Sabi philosophy is reflected in a preference for items that are imperfect, individual, and unique.\nEtsy and Eclecticism\nEtsy is part of a larger cultural trend towards eclecticism and individuality in consumer culture. Many people today reject the mass-produced, uniform products of big-box stores and instead seek out handmade, artisanal, and vintage items that have character, meaning, and a sense of history. Etsy reflects this trend by providing a platform for small-scale producers to connect with consumers who appreciate their unique vision and craftsmanship.\nAt the same time, Etsy has also become a source of inspiration and influence for larger retailers who are trying to tap into the demand for handmade and unique items. For example, many big-box stores have created their own lines of \u201chandmade\u201d products that imitate the aesthetic of Etsy sellers. This has led to a tension between the desire for unique and authentic products and the commodification of that desire.\nThe Sustainability Imperative\nAnother way in which Etsy reflects contemporary cultural trends is through its emphasis on sustainability and environmental responsibility. Many Etsy sellers use recycled materials or work with sustainable practices to reduce their impact on the environment. For example, some sewers use scraps of fabric to create patchwork quilts, while others use natural dyes to color their textiles. These practices reflect a broader concern for the environmental impact of consumer culture.\nIn addition, Etsy supports small-scale producers who often use less energy and resources in their production than large factories. When you buy a handmade item from Etsy, you are supporting a small business and helping to reduce the carbon footprint of consumer goods.\nWabi Sabi Etsy is a celebration of the beauty of imperfection, individuality, and sustainability. It reflects a cultural trend towards eclecticism and a rejection of mass-produced goods. By embracing the Wabi Sabi aesthetic and supporting small-scale, sustainable producers, we can create a more meaningful and authentic consumer culture."}

+{"text": "Alternative splicing (AS) is a key regulatory mechanism that contributes to transcriptome and proteome diversity. As very few genome-wide studies analyzing AS in plants are available, we have performed high-throughput sequencing of a normalized cDNA library which resulted in a high coverage transcriptome map of Arabidopsis. We detect similar to 150,000 splice junctions derived mostly from typical plant introns, including an eightfold increase in the number of U12 introns (2069). Around 61% of multiexonic genes are alternatively spliced under normal growth conditions. Moreover, we provide experimental validation of 540 AS transcripts (from 256 genes coding for important regulatory factors) using high-resolution RT-PCR and Sanger sequencing. Intron retention (IR) is the most frequent AS event (similar to 40%), but many IRs have relatively low read coverage and are less well-represented in assembled transcripts. Additionally, similar to 51% of Arabidopsis genes produce AS transcripts which do not involve IR. Therefore, the significance of IR in generating transcript diversity was generally overestimated in previous assessments. IR analysis allowed the identification of a large set of cryptic introns inside annotated coding exons. Importantly, a significant fraction of these cryptic introns are spliced out in frame, indicating a role in protein diversity. Furthermore, we show extensive AS coupled to nonsense-mediated decay in AFC2, encoding a highly conserved LAMMER kinase which phosphorylates splicing factors, thus establishing a complex loop in AS regulation. We provide the most comprehensive analysis of AS to date which will serve as a valuable resource for the plant community to study transcriptome complexity and gene regulation."}

This can be a costly mistake you will have to deal with for the duration of your lease. Hiring an expert in landlord-tenant law in NYC like Gary J. Wachtel is one way to make sure you are well aware of the most important tenant rights. Let\u2019s take a look at 4 of the most important tenant rights below.\nEqual Security Deposits for All Tenants\nWhen you are renting property, it\u2019s common for the landlord to request a security deposit in the event of damages to the property during your time inhabiting it. It\u2019s totally normal to pay a security deposit in order to reserve your property. Pets are an example of something that can increase your security deposit. If the landlord wants to keep some of your security deposit, you are entitled to receive written documentation explaining why. If you have any questions about security deposits, contact Gary J. Wachtel today, the premiere New York real estate attorney.\nIf you are applying to rent real estate, one of your rights as a tenant is that you can\u2019t be rejected based on religion, race, sex, national origin, family status, or mental and physical disabilities based on the federal Fair Housing Act. You can be rejected based on your credit score but your landlord has to tell you if that is indeed the case. If you feel like you might have been discriminated against during a real estate transaction, talking to an expert in landlord-tenant law in NYC can be a great decision.\nIf you are a renter, one of the most important tenant rights you have is the right to a habitable residence. The home or space should be safe to reside in at all times. If not, your landlord is responsible for making it safe via repairs.\nProtection from Unlawful Eviction\nEviction is when your landlord effectively removes you from your property. There are only a few scenarios that actually warrant an eviction, and as a tenant, you are protected from unlawful evictions. Being late for a payment is a lawful reason to support the process of eviction. It\u2019s very important to understand what is lawful and what is unlawful when it comes to eviction notices. If you would like professional help in dealing with unlawful evictions, a New York real estate attorney like Gary J. Wachtel is the answer."}

During the Sel\u00e7uk period, the city was so important that it became the capital of the Sel\u00e7uk\u2019s. In particular, roads, inns and castles were built in order to let the maritime trade into Anatolia. The Ottoman period did not start too early, unlike many known ones.

It explains in dept how the body works when it is under the control of a sexual addiction. Little did I know that as I was reading his book, Mark was in the process of developing a program to help people more than understand sexual addiction but actually overcome it for good.\nThe program that Mark and his colleagues developed is called Candeo and is now part of Joinfortify.com. I actually personally met Mark before starting his program. When I met him we had a conversation about all the people, including myself, that were looking for help but didn\u2019t have access to a therapist who specialized in sexual addictions. His idea was to bring the solution to people through the internet.\nI remember thinking to myself \u201cHow can a program on the Internet help me if the Internet is part of my problem\u201d. While I had doubts I decided to give it a try anyway since I had tried everything. Wow, was I surprised! As I started to go through the 6 week course, which I blazed through even faster, I started to feel a new hope I hadn\u2019t felt in a long time. My confidence in myself and life began to be restored. Life became exciting again as this program unlocked the truth of my addictions and the truth of how to overcome them.\nThe program is set up in a very logical and progressive way so that no important steps are skipped. First you gain a great understanding of what is actually happening in your body and how you\u2019re not just some pervert without a heart. Then you move into the really good stuff and that is the correct steps to actually overcoming sexual or porn addiction.\nI gotta tell you, it is such a great feeling to get things under control and not feel scared around a computer with internet access. I can look at beautiful women with calmness and confidence without letting my sexual urges and thoughts get out of control. Life looks so different now. Its full of hope and excitement with friends, family, hobbies and many other things that got neglected because I was previously dark and isolated.\nI now consider Mark Kastleman one of the leading experts in sexual addiction in the World.

They don't speak to customers or hot prospects to be able to determine what may be a useful group of keywords. Your keywords have to match your organization strategy.

He then went to the University of Colorado at Boulder and their JILA institute where he and Eric Cornell began the collaboration that eventually led to their prize-winning discoveries.\n\u201cCarl began the research that eventually led to his Nobel Prize work here at Michigan, although of course it was in its very early stages then, and many of the key advances happened several years after he went to Colorado,\u201d said Professor Philip Bucksbaum.\n\u201cNevertheless, he is still a member of our Michigan family. He has returned regularly for conferences and colloquia, and I\u2019ve always considered him a friend of the department.

Below we have a few tweaks you can make, that could be the difference between having less or more in the bank at the end of the day.\nOptimise your machinery & bags to achieve higher production output:\nMany pack-houses in the industry have invested in high-quality automatic wicket onion bagging presenters. Although there is capital expenditure, your return on investment will be quickly realised by increases in productivity and decreases reliance on labor. To ensure you get the production output you are after on your automated wicket machines, it is important to have high quality wicket bags. Smart Pack\u2019s wicket bags come very well packed in bales to ensure the bags present seamlessly to the machine, maximizing production outputs.\nUtilise Full-Graphic Custom Branding (Our design & print service)\nMarketing is no doubt a great way to get your bags to stand out. We\u2019ve developed a new design with full-graphic print to help with this and to bring something new and fresh to the industry for your generic bag requirements.\nIf you are looking to perosnalise your onion bags with branding, contact Smart Packs Graphic Design team who can support you in achieving the desired look and feel. Sometimes it just takes a small tweak, like using high-quality print and the same amount of effort to maximise on this area of your packaging. And at little to no extra cost to growers, it\u2019s a win, win in our books!\nAnalyze your weave quality:\nAre your onion bags under or over specified?\nIf your bags are under specified, you may see the leno mesh stretching too much. This will cause issues with stacking the bags as the bags will fail to hold their shape. It may also result in damaged onions, decreasing customer satisfaction.\nIf your bags are over specified, there may be some cost benefits that Smart Pack can assist you with, whilst still ensuring the bag is still fit for purpose. Smart Pack can identify this by analysing both the weight and weave pattern of your current bags.\nConsider using non-baffle bulk bags instead of baffle bulk bags:\nAre you exporting or packing bags for export to Europe? Many of these are transported in ventilated bulk bags, predominantly with internal baffles. Baffle bulk bags are ideal for this as they hold their form well, however they are considerably more expensive than un-baffled bulk bags.\nSmart Pack have developed a new option for un-baffled onion bulk bags. The superior weave on our un-baffled onion bulk bags ensures the bag holds it\u2019s structure and shape when being transported, fits well in the containers and will save you considerably on cost.\nIf you are looking for support on any of the above or if you would like to request samples of our onion bags, talk to the team today \u2013 06 356 9835 | email@example.com"}
+{"text": "Telecoms Security Act\nThe Telecoms Security Act came into force in November 2021. The law has introduced a stronger security framework for networks and services providers and tighter restrictions on the supply of services by \"high risk vendors\".\nUsing the powers granted to it under the Act, the UK government introduced the Electronic Communications (Security Measures) Regulations and Telecommunications Security Code of Practice in 2022, and a new set of Telecoms Security rules has seen a step-change in the expectations on the communications sector with respect to assessing and reducing risks of security compromises on networks and services.\nThe regulations and the Code of Practice have been developed in conjunction with the National Cyber Security Centre, who published guidance in 2018 regarding supply chain security, and Ofcom, the telecoms regulator. Ofcom have since published its own guidance on how it will exercise its functions in ensuring security compliance.\nThe Code of Practice gives guidance on how telecoms providers can comply with the regulations. It also takes into account the differences between the sizes of providers and how critical they are to the UK's network as a whole by using a three-tier system which ranks providers based on their annual revenue.\nTier 1 providers (companies caught by the Act with an annual revenue over \u00a31bn) must implement the first set of regulation requirements by 31 March 2024. These requirements are generally seen as the most straightforward and least resource intensive measures (for example, maintaining accurate records of all externally-facing systems).\nAlthough the implementation timeframes for Tier 2 (companies with annual revenue over \u00a350m) and Tier 3 providers are further away than for Tier 1, this is in recognition that it may take these providers longer to achieve compliance. Suppliers who provide services or equipment to Tier 1 and Tier 2 providers also face a countdown to the looming deadlines, as providers will need to implement measures that relate to their supply chain.\nIn order to support with your ongoing compliance exercises, we have put together a number of insights, podcasts and webinar recordings which take a deeper dive into some of the key areas of the Telecoms Security framework.\nHow the UK Telecoms Security Act will impact suppliers to the telecoms sector\nImpact of the Consumer Credit Act on the Communication sector"}
+{"text": "The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) has announced Aug. 20-26 as the dates for this year\u2019s Brake Safety Week. Brake Safety Week is an annual commercial motor vehicle brake safety inspection, enforcement and education initiative conducted by law enforcement jurisdictions in Canada, Mexico and the U.S.\nDuring Brake Safety Week, inspectors will conduct normal North American Standard Level I and V Inspections and report brake-related data to CVSA. The results will be released in the fall.\n\"The focus of this year's Brake Safety Week is on the condition of the brake lining and pad,\" said CVSA President Maj. Chris Nordloh with the Texas Department of Public Safety. \"Brake lining and pad issues may result in vehicle violations and could affect a motor carrier's safety rating.\"\nWhen inspectors conduct the brake portion of their inspections, they will:\n- Check for missing, non-functioning, loose or cracked parts.\n- Check for contaminated, worn, cracked and missing linings or pads.\n- Check for S-cam flipover.\n- Listen for audible air leaks around brake components and lines.\n- Check that slack adjusters are the same length (from center of S-cam to center of clevis pin) and the air chambers on each axle are the same size.\n- Ensure the brake system maintains air pressure between 90-100 psi (620-690 kPa) and measure pushrod travel.\n- Inspect for non-manufactured holes (e.g., rust holes, holes created by rubbing or friction, etc.) and broken springs in the spring brake housing section of the parking brake.\n- Inspect required brake system warning devices, such as anti-lock braking system (ABS) malfunction lamp(s) and low air-pressure warning devices.\n- Inspect the tractor protection system, including the bleedback system on the trailer.\n- Ensure the breakaway system is operable on the trailer.\nBrake safety awareness, education and outreach are very important elements of the Brake Safety Week campaign. CVSA has outlined the brake system inspection procedure so that drivers and motor carriers know exactly what inspectors will be checking during roadside inspections.\nThis transparency aims to remind drivers and motor carriers to take proactive steps to ensure their commercial motor vehicles are safe and compliant with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations. Improperly installed or poorly maintained brake systems can reduce the braking capacity and stopping distance of trucks or buses, which poses a serious safety risk for everyone on the road."}

+{"text": "In the age of online tutorials and DIY enthusiasts, homeowners in Agoura Hills, CA may be tempted to tackle various household issues independently. Slab leaks, however, present a unique challenge that requires specialized knowledge and equipment. In this article, we will explore whether DIY methods are effective for Slab Leak Detection In Agoura Hills, CA and shed light on the importance of professional plumbers in addressing this plumbing concern.\n1. Understanding the Complexity of Slab Leaks:\nSlab leaks occur beneath a home\u2019s foundation, making them challenging to detect without the right tools and expertise. DIY methods, such as visual inspections or basic water tests, may not be sufficient to identify the exact location and extent of a slab leak. Professional plumbers in Agoura Hills are equipped with advanced technologies, including electronic leak detection and ground-penetrating radar, enabling them to pinpoint slab leaks with precision.\n2. Risks of Inaccurate Detection:\nAttempting to detect and address slab leaks without proper knowledge and tools can lead to inaccurate results and, consequently, misguided repairs. Misdiagnosing the source of the leak may result in unnecessary excavation, potentially causing damage to the foundation and escalating repair costs. Professional plumbers possess the expertise to conduct accurate assessments, ensuring that repairs are targeted and effective.\n3. Importance of Timely Detection:\nSlab leaks, when left untreated, can lead to extensive damage to a home\u2019s foundation, flooring, and even structural elements. DIY methods may lack the timeliness needed to catch slab leaks in their early stages. Professional plumbers are trained to recognize subtle signs and utilize advanced detection methods, allowing them to intervene promptly and prevent further damage to your property.\n4. Utilizing Specialized Equipment:\nSlab leak detection requires specialized equipment that may not be readily available to homeowners. Professional plumbers utilize tools such as acoustic leak detectors, thermal imaging cameras, and electronic amplification devices to identify leaks accurately. DIY enthusiasts may lack access to these tools, making it challenging to achieve the level of precision required for effective slab leak detection.\n5. Compliance with Local Regulations:\nIn Agoura Hills, CA, plumbing repairs and detection activities are subject to local regulations and building codes. Professional plumbers are familiar with these codes and ensure that their work complies with all requirements. Attempting DIY slab leak detection without knowledge of local regulations may result in non-compliance and potential legal issues.\nWhile the allure of DIY projects is undeniable, Slab Leak Detection In Agoura Hills, CA is a task best left to the professionals. The complexity of detecting hidden leaks beneath the foundation, coupled with the potential risks of inaccurate detection and non-compliance with local regulations, emphasizes the importance of relying on experienced plumbers for this specific task. When it comes to safeguarding your home from the damaging effects of slab leaks, the expertise of a professional plumber is an investment in accurate detection, timely intervention, and long-term peace of mind."}
+{"text": "Neglecting water damage untreated for quite a long time may be a costly mistake for your home or business. A tiny leak leading to what might seem as minor damage can instantly result in a large scale mould problem. The end result of even the tiniest water damage episode may costs thousands in repairs and put your family or personnel as elevated health hazards. Here are only a few the things you may expect when water damage goes untreated.\nWater damage lowers the value of your home. Water damage in Capristano Beach may be a terror. It is hard to paint over. An inspector may recognize it and will record water damage if not properly addressed. Potential buyers will give you less money or worse, not consider purchasing your home at all.\nWater damaged ceilings. The longer you wait to begin with water damage cleanup, the more the wall and ceiling paint will fade, plaster will bulge. In addition, damage can happen to attached lights and ceiling fans. Mold growth can lead quickly in untreated water damage.\nDripping water may result in holes on your concrete. Never minimize a small trickle. If left unattended long enough it can eat through concrete. Worse it may affect the foundation and create your home structurally unsound.\nWater can corrode pipes. This begins a vicious cycle. Once pipes are corroded they tend to flow which may result in more water damage and a greater need for water damage restoration. This cycle can become fairly costly also.\nBreak down of carpet. Carpets are durable but to some point. Carpet isn\u2019t meant to be consistently moisted, therefore leaving water damage untreated water damage untreated in home} will cause your carpeting to break down. Leave it for too long and the padding beneath the carpeting and subfloor will start to weaken, loosen, decay and warp. A water damaged carpet may be a long-term headache.\nWater damage can ruin your electrical system. We all know water and electricity do not play well together. Water damage left neglected too long may cause electrical shorts and damage to your own frequencies. Would you say fire hazard? The less damage that the better, so staying on top of water damage cleanup is vital.\nWater weakens wooden walls and floors. Wood acts as a sponge so water damage to wood flooring is common. Because wood is really absorbent, the longer you wait around for water damage cleanup the more it spreads through your floor system, warping and buckling. Wait too long and the building materials of your home can become endangered.\nWater damage can ruin your drywall. Drywall does not need much vulnerability to water in order for it to turn fragile, swell and mould. Deformed, mold-infested water damaged walls are the result if left untreated.\nHealth hazards. Floodwaters can have unhealthy bacteria and microbes that may cause you to get sick and linger in your own belongings. Toxins, compounds, and contaminants remain on water damaged furniture long after they\u2019ve been dried. Leave that water in your home too long and mould, bugs, and fungus is going to appear. They can be the source for your allergies worse, cause respiratory problems, and add to a host of other health difficulties."}
+{"text": "When a blood clot or thrombus is formed, strands of fibrin anchor one red blood cell to another. It is these fibrin strands that form the lattice or structural matrix of the blood clot. The formation or deposition of these clots in the arterial vessels of the brain is one of the primary causes of ischemic stroke. Intravenous thrombolytic therapy (tPA/alteplase, the only approved drug for the treatment of ischemic stroke) works by converting plasminogen in the blood stream to plasmin, the active enzyme that dissolves fibrin. Clinical studies in stroke patients have demonstrated that when transcranial ultrasound energy is directed at the occlusion during conventional intravenous tPA thrombolytic therapy, there is a dramatic improvement in the ability to dissolve blood clots and restore blood flow to the ischemic regions of the brain. Ultrasound-potentiated thrombolysis or \u201csonolysis\u201d is the result of ultrasound pressure waves traveling through tissue that induce a mechanical force, which in turn causes the tissues to displace or strain.\nWhen the tissue contains fluid compartments (such as blood), the energy of the ultrasound beam is transformed into energy of fluid motion. This is called acoustic streaming. At very low pressures this streaming inside the confined areas of complex tissues such as the brain will cause a mild streaming effect. Acoustic streaming is believed to be one of the primary means of ultrasound-potentiated thrombolysis in which additional fibrin binding sites are exposed to plasmin at the site of the clot.\nSonolysis represents a fundamentally different approach to the treatment of ischemic stroke in which externally applied ultrasound energy can significantly enhance the clot lysis potential of conventional thrombolytic therapy.\nSelect Published Research Articles:\n- Ultrasound-Enhanced Thrombolysis for Acute Ischemic Stroke: Phase I.

+{"text": "Landlords of rental properties in the City of Westminster need to be aware of new additional HMO licensing requirements coming into force in Westminster with effect from 30 August 2021.\nAn HMO is a house in multiple occupation. This means that any house or individual flat in Westminster that is let to three or more people forming more than one household with shared facilities will need a section 254 HMO license from 30 August. This includes flats in multiple occupation in purpose-built blocks.\nA household is defined as occupiers of the same family and includes spouses, cohabitees, same-sex couples and any blood relative.\nThis differs from a mandatory section 257 HMO licence introduced in England by the Housing Act 2004 where there are five or more people comprising two or more households sharing facilities. A mandatory licence is also required for a building converted into self-contained flats where the conversion did not comply with relevant Building Regulations in force at that time and still does not comply and where less than two thirds of the flats are owner occupied.\nThe purpose behind HMO licensing is to improve living standards in rental accommodation and to prove that landlords are \u2018fit and proper\u2019 persons to operate these properties. As part of the licence application, Westminster will usually carry out an inspection of the common parts of the HMO property to check it meets certain standards, such as the presence of fire doors and smoke detectors.\nThe person applying for the licence will in most cases be the party receiving the rent (the landlord or managing agent).\nA fee is payable to Westminster for a section 254 licence. The licence will in most cases be valid for five years.\nIt is an offence to operate a licensable HMO without a licence and doing so could result in an unlimited fine on conviction or a civil penalty of up to \u00a330,000.\nHMO licensing rules are not consistent across every London borough as each borough can create its own set of rules."}

+{"text": "There is a huge difference between making disciples of all nations and making disciples in all nations. Making all peoples disciples is totally different concept from making disciples from all peoples.\nFrom the dawn of creation to the death of Jesus Christ, and then to the ministry of the apostles it is obvious that not every person will become believers of God and followers of Jesus. During the time of Jesus Christ on the earth, not everyone in Palestine became His followers. In fact, He only focused His ministry on the 12, and only 120 disciples were waiting for the coming of the Hoy Spirit after the ascension of Jesus Christ. When the church began to grow in its early stage of history, not everyone became disciples regardless of the thousands that become followers of The Way. Many thousands more did not turn to faith in Christ. Despite the aggressive advance of the Gospel, the majority remained non-Christians. As the church moves on, persecution against Christianity persisted. From God\u2019s stand point, He does not force every person to be saved. The history proves this from the dawn of creation till this very day. Jesus came into the world because He loves everyone, and there is no other way to get to the Father except through Him. Yet God didn\u2019t save everyone. John 3:16 didn\u2019t say, \u201cFor God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten son so that ALL will be saved...\u201d Everyone who believes in Jesus and all that believes will be saved but not all will be saved because not all will believe.\nTo \u201cgo and make disciples in all nations\u201d is the mandate!

+{"text": "Mining difficulty is a measure of how many attempts on average it is required to find the proof-of-work solution required to mine a block and receive the mining reward. One can define the Difficulty as the inverse probability of a random solution being the correct one. Thus, a difficulty of 100 means that one in 100 tries should produce a valid block in average.\nWhy change the difficulty?\nIn Proof of Work blockchains, the difficulty is a dynamic parameter, periodically retargeted to reflect the fluctuations in the total computational power of all the miners. Accounting for changes in mining competition, as well as improvements in mining technology.\nThe goal of updating the difficulty is to keep the average block time at a certain value. In Beam, the target block time is 60 seconds, which underpins a constant currency issuance and the transaction settlement time of the network.\nHere\u2019s an example. Let\u2019s assume we have 100 miners in our network. They are trying different random solutions and find one roughly every minute. Now 100 more miners join, the hashrate of the network doubles, and it will take just 30 seconds to find the solution in average. And if 200 and more join, the time will halve into 15 seconds, and so on.\nTo mitigate that, Beam nodes adjust shall we mention that they reach consensus here?the difficulty, increasing the difficulty of the proof of work algorithm as more miners join, and lowering it if the number of miners decreases.\nHow Difficulty is calculated in Beam\nIn Beam, the difficulty is reassessed with every block, by every client independently The algorithm looks at the average time and the average difficulty the last 1440 blocks. f the time required to mine the last 1440 blocks is higher or lower than 24 hours, the difficulty is retargeted accordingly.\nThe detailed algorithm is outlined below:\n- Look at the last 7 blocks. Identify the block that has the median block time. This is the Window End block.\n- Look at blocks from 127 to 120 before the current block (7 blocks altogether). Identify the block that has the median block time out of those. This will be the Window Start block.\n- Sum all the difficulties of the blocks from Window Start to Window End. This is Delta Work.\n- Calculate the time difference between Window Start and Window End blocks. This is Delta Time.\n- Calculate the difficulty for next block as: NewDifficulty = (Delta Work / Delta Time) * 60seconds.\n- The Delta Time is bounded by 1 hour and 4 hours. I.e. if the difference is less than 1 hour, 1 hours is still used as Delta Time, same for differences larger than 4 hours. This is done to prevent extreme changes in difficulty.\nThe algorithm above ensures that as the total solution power of the network fluctuates, the difficulty is gradually adjusted and thus the target block time is ensured."}

It is a powerful, profound visualization.\nUse it firstly on the relationship with your mother and then use it over, and over ~ if you choose ~ on all your other relationships.\nIf it is someone you no longer wish to have in your life then you cut them free and with no intent other than unconditional love send them on their way \u2026 with love!\nThis is extremely important or you will be hooked up with them again!\nSend them on their way.

+{"text": "The architectural design of the exterior fa\u00e7ade in particular plays a central role in an apartment building like the one in Mouscron, Belgium. All the elements of the exterior present a coherent picture here. In addition to the basic design of the apartment building, the provision of parking spaces also plays a central role in Mouscron. In 2020, the owner therefore decided to have a VERTICAR car lift from L\u00f6dige Industries installed in the apartment building.\nThis is how sufficient car parking space was gained while preserving architectural design.\nThere are only a few car parking spaces available in the residential area in Mouscron. Also, the property of the apartment building itself did not have any additional parking spaces for cars of the residents. Due to the limited floor space, the owner was dependent on a space-saving parking solution in order to be able to realise all the required parking spaces. The basement of the building therefore lent itself to the realisation of an underground car park. To avoid the space requirement of an access ramp, a car lift was considered.\nThe VERTICAR car lift from L\u00f6dige Industries is suitable for this project in many respects. This car lift is based on a scissor lift with a maximum lifting height of 3,500 mm, as well as a maximum rated load of 3,000 kg, and is therefore ideal for overcoming a parking level by car. Especially buildings with a limited floor space benefit from this compact car lift with cabin dimensions of only 3,000 mm x 6,000 mm x 2,000 mm. In addition, the VERTICAR has a significantly reduced shaft headroom, which means that valuable living space can be gained above the lift solution.\nAnother key criterion for the apartment building was the integration of the parking solution into the building's fa\u00e7ade. Thanks to the individual design options of the roller doors, the existing design of the exterior fa\u00e7ade could be continued throughout.\nVia an app, the residents of the apartment building can conveniently call the car lift by smartphone. The annoying search for the remote control to open the garage door is no longer necessary.\n- The owner of the apartment building was in need of a space-saving parking solution, as there was not enough room for the required parking spaces either on the property itself or in the surrounding residential area.\n- Although sufficient parking space is available in the basement of the building, a space-saving parking solution first had to be found as an alternative to a conventional access ramp\n- In addition, the parking solution was to be embedded in the overall appearance of the exterior fa\u00e7ade\n- The installation of a VERTICAR car lift has significantly reduced the space required for access to the underground car park.\n- The owner also benefits from the compact shaft dimensions and the small shaft head, which means that valuable living space can be saved.\n- The roller doors of the VERTICAR car lift were individually adapted to the facade of the building, so that the access to the underground car park disappears in the overall appearance of the facade\nWe look forward to your message.\nExplore our full portfolio to discover the best solution for your project.\nOptimum use of floor space for underground car parks, residential, multi-purpose or public buildings\nNo space or desire for an access ramp? Transport cars up or down with our space saving, reliable car lifts.\nGrant easy access to your inner city buildings with our proven lorry lifts up to 100 tonnes.\nOur service solutions ensure your parking solution keeps working for you."}

Further, she hadn't been informed of the support and resources for available for MAiD loss at the time, and found the grief to be unlike any other.\nAs a certified coach trained in emotional processing, grief, and healing, Rebecca has made the decision to volunteer with Bridge C-14, offering peer support to others navigating similar experiences. Drawing from personal experience and insights, Rebecca aims to provide compassionate support, understanding, and resources to ensure that individuals facing the unique grief of MAiD don't feel alone and can find healing in their journey."}

After his primary education he joined the Pallipuram seminary attached to Saint Mary\u2019s Church, Cherthala. Father Thomas Palackal was his malpan (professor of sacred sciences). He received his sub-diaconate in 1827 and diaconate in 1828. On 29 November 1829, he was ordained a priest at Saint Andrews Church, Arthunkal. From a very young age,Kuriakose was instructed to chant the name \u2018Jesus\u2019, as a result of which he eagerly wished to live a life dedicated to Jesus and the Church.\nAfter his priestly ordination, he joined Father Thomas Palackal and Father Thomas Porukara, his malpans, and laid the foundation for a spiritual movement at Mannanam.. They established a residence at Mannanam in the year 1831 and named it \u2018Beth Rauma\u2019 (house on the hilltop). Beth Rauma had a humble beginning and grew into a dwelling place for a group of religious priests who, later, came to be known as Servants of the Immaculate Conception. This religious community at Mannanam laid the foundation for the congregation of Carmelites of Mary Immaculate (CMI). Father Thomas Palackal and Father Thomas Porukara died in 1841 and 1846 respectively.\n. From 1831 onwards Father Kuriakose engaged in various spiritual and welfare activities, such as starting a Sanskrit school at Mannanam for the educational development of the area, establishing the first wooden press in Kerala, renewing the Order of the Liturgy, popularising Sunday sermons and organizing annual retreats in parishes to facilitate the spiritual renewal of the people. In 1866, he founded the first Indian religious congregation for women, the Congregation of Mother of Carmel (CMC).\nSaint Kuriakose spent the last seven years of his life at Koonammavu, Kerala, where he died on 3 January 1871 and was buried in Saint Philomena\u2019s Church, Koonammavu. Later, on 24 May 1889, his mortal remains were transferred from Koonammavu and re\u00acin\u00acterred in the Saint Joseph\u2019s Monastery Chapel at Mannanam, the mother house of the CMI congregation.\nSaint Kuriakose Elias was well known for his sacrificial life and continues to be a modelof Christian virtue and a solace for many in their trials and tribulations. Many favours have been received through his intercession. SaintAlphonsa, the first saint of India, sought the intercession of Saint Kuriakose and was instantly cured of her illness. She had certified this cure by her own handwritten testimonial.\nThe canonization process of Father Kuriakose Elias Chavara began in 1956 and, on 8 February 1986, he was beatified by Pope John Paul II at Kottayam, Kerala.\nThe miraculous cure of the crippled feet of Joseph Pennaparampil from Calicut, Kerala, through the intercession of Saint Kuriakose was approved for the beatification. The miraculous cure of the alternating convergent squint eyes of Maria Jose Kottarathil from Pala, Kerala, was approved by the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, Vatican, for the canonization of Saint Kuriakose. On 18 March 2014, Pope Francis signed the Decree approving Blessed Kuriakose Elias Chavara to be declared a saint.\nOn 23 November 2014, Kuriakose Elias Chavara was canonized at Rome by Pope Francis.

Its history, in fact, comes to life from the popular legend of the Saracen giants who conquered the Ursino Castle. In fact, Frederick II of Swabia had this majestic and imposing castle built which overlooked the entire Gulf of Catania from the coast, dominating it. Due to its position, it was called, precisely, Castello del Golfo, or \"Castrum sinus\" in Latin. Over time, it lost its original pronunciation, acquiring the current name of the Bourbon building: Castello Ursino. For the people of Catania and their galloping imagination, however, the castle took its name rather from the disturbing presence of the Ursini Giants, who had occupied the fortress. At this point in history, we find the figure of the brave Uzeta who faced the terrible giants, defeating them with strength and vigor, and finally freeing the Castle from the oppressors. The paladin Uzeta thus won the benevolence of the King who in exchange granted him the hand of his daughter.\nThe legend of Paladin Uzeda is represented in one of the four artistic candelabra in Piazza Universit\u00e0 in Catania."}
+{"text": "Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God. (NIV)\nOne common misunderstanding about faithful marriages is that such marriages are between two utterly compatible people who share most common interests and who think alike on most things.\nThere are such marriages, and such compatibility can help a relationship function smoothly.\nHowever, other marriages survive and even flourish as unions of two very different individuals. One such marriage has been described as a rusty trellis propping up a thorned rose! Somehow the partnership works. The essence of such relationships is not easy compatibility but consistent acceptance.\nOur text today refers to differences within the church and points to something beyond these differences. God accepts very different people and invites them to serve Jesus and one another, not letting differences divide but rather enrich.\nSo it can be with a marriage. We may marry a person believing certain things about them and discover over many years that our first impressions have to be modified. After all, none of us remains just the same, no relationships are immune from change. And so we need to learn to live with differences.\nSuch changes can cause couples to wonder if they made some \u201cmistake\u201d. Is this person the right person for me?

+{"text": "Visualizing molecular polar order in tissues via electromechanical coupling\n10T12:19:24Z June 2013\nElectron microscopy (EM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques have long been used to characterize collagen fibril ordering and alignment in connective tissues. These techniques, however, are unable to map collagen fibril polarity, i.e., the polar orientation that is directed from the amine to the carboxyl termini. Using a voltage modulated AFM-based technique called piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM), we show it is possible to visualize both the alignment of collagen fibrils within a tissue and the polar orientation of the fibrils with minimal sample preparation. We demonstrate the technique on rat tail tendon and porcine eye tissues in ambient conditions. In each sample, fibrils are arranged into domains whereby neighboring domains exhibit opposite polarizations, which in some cases extend to the individual fibrillar level. Uniform polarity has not been observed in any of the tissues studied. Evidence of anti-parallel ordering of the amine to carboxyl polarity in bundles of fibrils or in individual fibrils is found in all tissues, which has relevance for understanding mechanical and biofunctional properties and the formation of connective tissues. The technique can be applied to any biological material containing piezoelectric biopolymers or polysaccharides.\nType of Material\nJournal of Structural Biology\nCopyright (Published Version)\n2012 Elsevier Inc.\nStatus of Item\nThis item is made available under a Creative Commons License"}
+{"text": "Towards Zero Bridge Fatalities\nOne of the main challenges is that most existing bridge decks have not been designed with the structural capacity to meet the needs of higher capacity, traditionally designed bridge traffic barriers.\nThe reason: transfer of impact energy. Put simply, the energy of an impact into a traditional bridge traffic barrier affects more that the just the traffic barrier itself. It flows through the barrier to the bridge deck and then the greater structure.\nIn many cases, the increase in load from the traffic barrier is too great for the bridge deck capacity, and the bridge deck will be damaged. Thus, the grater majority of existing bridges are unable to be fitted with higher capacity, traditionally designed barriers without first being fitted with additional reinforcement such as carbon fibre \u2013 an expensive solution in terms of both time and cost. In some instances, increasing the capacity of the traditional bridge traffic barrier would necessitate a complete replacement of the bridge deck.\nThe solution: The innovative solution to this common problem has come in the form of a bridge traffic barrier system developed by Belgian bridge engineer, David De Saedeleer, a director of Belgian manufacturer Desami.\nWorking with world-renowned FEA specialists Global Design Solutions (GDTech), Desami developed a ground-breaking design that restricts the energy from the vehicle impact to a fraction of the capacity of the bridge deck, resulting in a low load in the bridge deck.\nKnown as the DOLRE Low Stress Parapet System, this world-leading bridge traffic barrier system has been fully crash tested to European Standards and simulated to US MASH TL4 requirements, and has been Approved by ASBAP for use throughout Australia.\nIdeal for bridge refurbishment projects, the DOLRE Low Stress Parapet System offers a cost-effective and easy to install method of upgrading existing bridges to meet the current Standard without the need for significant and expensive deck strengthening or deck replacement works. DOLRE also offers the added advantage of being easy to dismantle and remove in times of flood, thereby helping to significantly reduce the risk of damage to valuable bridge assets."}
+{"text": "Did Jacob Arminius move the church away from Augustine and toward Pelagius? To what degree?\nYour question is beyond the scope of our discussions, but we might say that from the records of history, Arminius was one who, during the Sixteenth Century, disagreed openly with the doctrine of predestination as it was being taught by Calvin and others. Though he did not understand all the true teachings of the Bible, he could see that this doctrine was grossly in error, that the Bible taught the free will of man, man\u2019s own free choice and man\u2019s ability to choose either to do right or wrong. We are not prepared to comment on the effects of his teachings, though we might say that his thinking was more in line with Pelagius than other teachers of the early centuries.\nThe Bible tells of the drastic turning away from the doctrine which occurred during the early centuries of our era, following the ascension of Christ. The apostle Paul predicted that even among his own church people there would be \u201cmen coming forward who will distort the truth to induce the disciples to break away and follow them\u201d (Acts 20:30,). He said also, speaking prophetically, that the \u201ctime will come when they will not stand wholesome teaching, but will follow their own fancy and gather a crowd of teachers to tickle their ears.

Now he is requesting unemployment compensation benefits under California law. Is an employee entitled to these benefits if he or she is no longer employed, regardless of the circumstances?\nA. California provides unemployment compensation benefits to certain employees who are no longer employed, but there are several situations that can prevent an individual from receiving such benefits.\nThe California Unemployment Insurance Code specifically disqualifies certain employees from receiving unemployment compensation benefits, including those who were discharged for misconduct, left work voluntarily and without good cause, refused to accept suitable employment without good cause or failed to apply for suitable employment when notified by a public employment office.\nFurther, an employee cannot claim unemployment insurance benefits if he or she was unable or unavailable to work during the week for which he or she is claiming benefits.\nQ. Now I know that our former employee may not be eligible for unemployment benefits, as he was discharged for misconduct. What behavior qualifies as misconduct sufficient to deny unemployment insurance benefits under California law?\nA. Under California Code of Regulations Title 22 Section 1256-30, an employer must establish the following elements to demonstrate that a former employee engaged in misconduct:\n- The individual owed a material duty to the employer under his or her employment contract.\n- There was a substantial breach of this duty.\n- The breach was \u201ca willful or wanton disregard of that duty.\u201d\n- The breach disregarded the employer\u2019s interests and injured or tended to injure the employer\u2019s interests.\nThere also needs to be a causal connection between the individual\u2019s breach of duty and his or her discharge to demonstrate that the discharge was for misconduct.\nExamples of misconduct severe enough to preclude collection of unemployment benefits may include stealing from an employer, intoxication at work, sleeping on the job, creating false records and sexual harassment.\nMisconduct is not likely to be established and preclude collection of unemployment benefits if the employee was simply inefficient, unable to perform adequately, made a mistake, was ordinarily negligent on occasion or made a good-faith error. For example, a clerk who failed to file properly a document and was discharged for his error would not have been discharged for misconduct, and thus his error would not be sufficient to impede his right to collect unemployment compensation benefits."}

Operators are increasingly partnering with hyperscalers to embed new efficiencies and intelligence into their networks enabled by Cloud technology advances. Similarly, vendors are redesigning their solutions to be Cloud-based to support this evolution of the telco ecosystem.\nIn this paper, we lay out how the promises of 5G are progressing rapidly to become reality and are benefitting significantly from optimised Cloud-driven scale. We also describe how Amdocs\u2019 Cloud-native 5G Charging solution, in collaboration with Amazon Web Services, is successfully demonstrating at scale capacity of 12 billion complex charging transactions daily."}

The town was abandoned in 1500 as result of plague and its resurrection began to take place at the end of the nineteenth century and has continued up until the present day. The gardens are built around the remains of the original buildings. It is a magical, peaceful place, one hour from the bustle of modern day Rome. Access is restricted as the garden is a natural reserve. The Garden of Ninfa traces the history of the garden and the family who created it using archive photographs.

These studies might also reveal basic mechanisms of disease that could inspire new drug development efforts. We proposed to use two cutting edge methods in stem cell biology to accomplish this: cloning and direct reprogramming (generation of induced pluripotent stem cells with reprogramming factors). At the time, methods for direct reprogramming were in their infancy and it was not possible to generate mice entirely from these cells. Because reprogramming neurons is likely to be inefficient and difficult, we proposed to generate entire mice derived from reprogrammed cells. Al cell types, including neurons in these mice would carry special genes to allow us to then turn their neurons into stem cell lines. We have successfully generate such mice and in doing so, we became the first to show that fertile adult mice could be generated from skin cells using induced pluripotent stem cells. This result helps to validate the utility of stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells and represents the achievement of a critical milestone in our project timeline. Present efforts will use these mice as a unique resource to achieve the goal of the application."}

In a relatively young age, a child mentally / psychologically is not ready to face marriage. Early marriage increases the risk of maternal and child mortality. The quality of children born is low.\nLenny N. Rosalin, Deputy for Child Growth and Development at the Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection, said that early marriage is believed to extend the poverty chain.\n\"Children who get married at an early age can no longer get the right to education. In fact, besides being able to become a ladder for society to change their social status, education is the most important thing to shape personality, gain experience, and form a brilliant generation of nation. \"he said in Jakarta, Monday (08/06/2018).\nHe said the Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection (PPPA) in collaboration with the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) in 2016 had collected information about the level of education taken by women aged 20 24 years who had ever married who had married under or above 18 years.\nHe said, the results were quite alarming, as much as 94.72% of women aged 20 24 years who had ever married who were married under the age of 18 or the age of the children were no longer attending school, while those who were still attending school were only 4.38%.\nWomen aged 20 24 years who have ever married who are married at the age of children also tend to have lower education than those who marry above the age of 18.\nSo far, the Minister of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection, Yohana Yembise is pushing for a revision of Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage, especially the article that regulates the age limit for marriage.\n\"We recommend that the minimum marriage limit be increased, especially for women, because the age of 16 is still classified as a child or not yet an adult,\" he said."}

+{"text": "Microwave-Supported Acid Hydrolysis for Proteomics\nPublication or External Link\nOur goal is to develop, optimize and demonstrate workflows that incorporate rapid Asp-selective chemical proteolysis into proteomic studies of complex mixtures. This can be further divided into several specific aims. The first aim is to develop and optimize the sample preparation, mass spectrometric, and bioinformatic methods required for complex mixture analysis of peptides resulting from acid digestion both in solution and in polyacrylamide gels. Second, the optimized methods will be applied to three model systems. In the first application, the large peptides derived from microwave-supported acid hydrolysis of human ribosomes isolated from MCF-7 breast cancer cells are analyzed. Secondly, acid hydrolysis will be applied to characterize Lys63 linkages in polyubiquitins. Finally, all the above methods will be combined for the analysis of extracellular vesicles shed by myeloid derived suppressor cells from a murine mammary carcinoma model.\nAfter optimizing the mass spectrometric and bioinformatic methods required for analysis of peptides resulting from acid hydrolysis, the most comprehensive analysis using this digestion technique to date was achieved both for in gel and in solution analysis. In gel digestion resulted in identification of over twelve hundred peptides representing 642 proteins, and in solution digestion via mass biased partitioning allowed identification of over 300 proteins. Mass biased partitioning also resulted in two distinct peptide populations from the high and low mass analyses implemented.\nNearly 90% of the predicted human ribosomal proteins were identified after acid hydrolysis. High resolution analysis of both precursor and product ions resulted in an average sequence coverage of 46% among identified proteins. It was also demonstrated that microwave-supported acid hydrolysis facilitates a more informative method for analysis of Lys63 linked polyubiquitin. After acid hydrolysis, ~629 Da mass shifts were found to be indicative of isopeptides. These isopeptides were easily identified from complex mixtures using tandem mass spectrometry and diagnostic b ions. Extracellular vesicles from a murine carcinoma model were then analyzed using in gel microwave-supported acid hydrolysis, mass biased partitioning after in solution digestion, and the sample was interrogated for the presence of ubiquitinated peptides."}

The biggest reason is the deeper the roots in the community, the more solid ground the business is on. The businesses untethered to their communities risk losing everything when the community finds a business seeking to connect. Therefore, a coworking space has unique value propositions allowing it to connect to the community and create bonds lasting a long time.\nCatered Lunches and Promotions\nThe easiest way to bring people together is with food. Members love a catered lunch, and a local restaurant loves the idea of catering lunch. There are many opportunities to build relationships, but the easiest way is to make a deal with local restaurants to provide discounts to members. The members get a taste for the restaurant with the catered lunch. Ultimately, these partnerships work for both entities, and it develops roots in the community.\nCoworking spaces are perfect for hosting many different types of events. Getting in touch with community leaders helps with the building of different types of events. For example, there are several types of events, fundraisers, and other ways for the community to gather. The facilities at a coworking space are ideal for keeping people inside, feeling like they have space and yet intimately gathered. The community feels the coworking space invests in them, and the coworking space gets community members to check out what the coworking space offers.\nSponsoring Events and Teams\nYouth sports is an incredibly effective method for deepening ties to a community. Same with events too. When people see the name of a business on the back of a jersey or as a title sponsor for an event, they know the business cares about them. Thanks to these sponsorships, the community literally feels the investment made by the coworking space. In turn, when people need a place to do business, the coworking space that\u2019s top of mind is the one with it\u2019s roots in the community.\nThere are plenty of ways coworking spaces involve themselves in the community similar to Venture X.

+{"text": "The article \u2018Analysing the influence of the presentation of fashion garments on young consumers\u2019 online behaviour\u2019 by McCormick and Livett seeks to identify the web experience elements that aid the interaction between the consumer and fashion garments online (McCormick & Livett, 2012). The basic argument presented is that by consumers exposed to both practical and aesthetic garment attributes can increase the consumer\u2019s satisfaction (McCormick & Livett, 2012).\nTo accomplish this purpose the following method was used: evaluation of published research in literature review and then design and implementation of research strategy utilizing in-depth interviews.The information and thought process presented in the introduction lead coherently to the purpose originally aimed in the study. The research informs clearly the reader of its objectives and thorough terminology is defined.\nA diverse literature review is provided with reports of previous findings and comparisons between the authors\u2019 research and prior research findings. The research presented in the paper aims to provide a theoretical explanation of the effects of the interaction between the consumer and fashion garments online since this aspect has not been recorded in the collection of the so-far studies (McCormick & Livett, 2012). This is an elaborate and of high importance issue, since the incorporation of internet is inevitable and inseparable in all business sectors and specifically in apparel industry. Thus the research can be considered as suitable and adequate.Sampling strategy is clearly defined regarding the age and sex of the participants.\nAlthough the authors recognize that its target group is the most common group of e-shoppers, they miss out to take into consideration -or mention in the article- other criteria that should probably be taken into consideration while choosing the participants, e.g. how often do these participants shop online, as this information can determine whether their answers will be well-thought and representative of their real beliefs. Additionally, \u2018high fashion interest consumers\u2019 (McCormick & Livett, 2012, p.\n25) constitutes a generic criterion. However, it is recognized in the paper that the findings cannot be generalized.The research method is qualitative in nature; however additional quantitative findings could contribute and validate the findings. The evaluation of the significance of the findings would increase objectivity.The presentation of the research findings is objective, reasonable and credible since all of the participants\u2019 responses are illustrated in the article. Considering ethics, no ethical issues are addressed or mentioned in the article, thus leaving undefined whether ethical standards were met or not.The research contributes to the literature to date with new theoretical understanding of the interaction between the consumer and fashion garments online and raises additional questions for future work (McCormick & Livett, 2012).\nThe suggestion to expand the research to multi-channel retailers can add valuable insight to the study of the interaction between garment industry and consumer\u2019s behaviour, as the interaction between the channels is inevitable. Overall the article is well-structured and organized and the research procedures well documented rendering the study replicable (Kawamura, 2011). The authors were able to test and support their hypothesis and the research findings validate the authors\u2019 conclusions.?"}
+{"text": "This paper proposes a new model which can approximate the delay time distribution in the Internet. It is well known that the delay time in communication links follows the exponential distribution. However, the earlier models cannot explain the distribution when a communication link is heavily overloaded. This paper proposes to use the M/M/S(m) model for the Internet. We have applied our model to the measurement results. This paper deals with one-way delay because it reflects the actual characteristics of communication links. Most measurement statistics in the Internet have been based on roundtrip time delay between two end nodes. These characteristics are easily measured by sending sample packets from one node to the other. The receiver side echoes back the packets. However, the results are not always useful. A long distance communication link, such as a leased line, has two different fibers or wires for each direction: an incoming link, and an outgoing link. When the link is overloaded, the traffic in each link is quite different. The measurement of one-way delay is especially important for multimedia communications, because audio and video transmissions are essentially one-way traffic.\n|IEICE Transactions on Information and Systems\n|Published - 1999\nASJC Scopus subject areas\n- \u30b3\u30f3\u30d4\u30e5\u30fc\u30bf \u30b0\u30e9\u30d5\u30a3\u30c3\u30af\u30b9\u304a\u3088\u3073\u30b3\u30f3\u30d4\u30e5\u30fc\u30bf\u652f\u63f4\u8a2d\u8a08"}
+{"text": "Indebtedness of Americans Nearing Retirement Has Risen Sharply, Increasing Risk of Bankruptcies\nFor Americans aged 56\u201361, median indebtedness rose sharply from 1992 to 2004. For the top quartile, debt doubled between 1992 and 2004, and almost tripled by 2010.\nIn Debt and Financial Vulnerability on the Verge of Retirement (NBER Working Paper No. 23664), Annamaria Lusardi, Olivia S. Mitchell, and Noemi Oggero show that, in recent decades, more and more Americans are entering retirement with significant debt. Debt-to-asset and debt-to-income ratios, as well as total debt, have been on the rise. Most seniors seem to be paying off their debt in retirement, but the trends reflect a higher risk of default and bankruptcy, especially for those faced with variable interest rates and falling incomes.\nDrawing upon data from the Health and Retirement Study, the researchers examined the debt patterns of three different cohorts \u2014 Americans on the verge of retirement (aged 56\u201361) in 1992, 2004, and 2010. They also studied the debt patterns of older respondents (aged 62\u201366) to better analyze retirement security. To learn more about older individuals' ability to manage debt and shield themselves from financial shocks, they also analyzed responses to the 2012 and 2015 waves of the National Financial Capability Study.\nIndicators of total debt\u2014 including the percentage of individuals arriving at retirement with debt, the median amount of debt, and the debt held by the top quartile and the top 10 percent \u2014 increased with each cohort. The increase in the median amount of debt was particularly sharp from 1992 to 2004, from $6,800 to $31,200. Top-quartile debt doubled between 1992 and 2004, and almost tripled by 2010.\nIndicators of debt burden, such as the ratio of debt to liquid assets and the ratio of debt to total income, also increased. Primary-residence mortgage debt rose in part because people were buying more expensive homes with lower down payments; this also meant that the home represented a progressively greater percentage of total assets. Incidence and median amounts of credit card and other non-mortgage debt, including high-interest non-collateralized debt, also increased. In 2010, many more senior households held non-mortgage debt equaling or exceeding their liquid assets, suggesting missed opportunities to reduce high-interest debt. The median ratio of debt to total income jumped from 14 percent in 1992 to 45 percent in 2004, and to 50 percent in 2010, making many more households potentially vulnerable to interest-rate increases or financial shocks.\nDespite the rise in debt levels, most retirement-age borrowers seemed to be servicing their debt. The researchers found that those in the 62\u201366 age group carried less debt than those aged 56\u201361, even though they carried more debt than their counterparts from previous years. They were also less likely to report carrying credit card debt, incurring late fees, and using high-cost borrowing methods such as paying only the minimum due or using their credit cards for cash advances.\n\u2014 Deborah Kreuze"}

+{"text": "UN food program to provide more than 60,000 Ukrainian students with school lunches\nThe World Food Programme (WFP) has signed agreements to support daily school meals for over 60,000 children in 420 schools across 11 regions of Ukraine.\nDuring the 2023-2024 academic year, the WFP will finance 30% of daily hot meals for students in grades 1-4, Rubryka reports, citing the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine.\nSchools will allocate the funds received through the program to improve the quality of nutrition and reduce the cost of meals covered by parents.\nThe support program will operate in schools in Kyiv, Lviv, Zakarpattia, Ternopil, Khmelnytskyi, Chernihiv, Chernivtsi, Cherkasy, Mykolaiv, Odesa, and Poltava regions.\nThe selection of regions was based on various criteria, including the level of food security and the number of internally displaced persons.\nThe WFP supported the Ukrainian school nutrition reform during the previous academic year, financing the preparation of meals for 12,000 children in 58 schools in the Kyiv region. This academic year, the support has expanded.\nUkraine recently presented the School Nutrition Reform Strategy, approved at the end of October. The reform aims to ensure diverse, balanced, and high-quality nutrition in schools and preschool institutions.\nThe Kyiv region became a pilot province, which was among the first to implement changes in the organization of the nutrition system in educational institutions and showed positive results.\nDuring the presentation, Minister of Education and Science Oksana Liovochkina explained that the government was trying to provide free healthy meals for all students in grades 1-4 and children in privileged categories.\nHowever, Ukraine currently lacks the resources due to the number of such children. Since 650,000 students in grades 1-11 belong to vulnerable categories, including over 223,000 children with IDP status. Also, a new category of children who suffered from military actions received privileged status.\nThe total cost of hot meals for children in these categories is \u20b413.87 billion. The support of donors and partners, including the World Food Programme of the UN in Ukraine, is crucial, said the minister.\nWhat do we know about the reform of school nutrition in Ukraine?\nThe reform of school nutrition in Ukraine started in 2020 at the initiative of First Lady Olena Zelenska.\nOn January 1, 2022, updated menus for students were introduced in Ukrainian schools, developed by Ukrainian chef Yevhen Klopotenko. The key feature of the changes was a shift towards healthier nutrition: less sugar, salt, bread, fats, and by-products.\nNot all parents reacted positively to the reform, sparking a debate around school nutrition.\nIn the comments on the \"New School\" page, one can find many angry comments directed at both Klopotenko and the First Lady.\nAllegedly, children go home hungry, and during breaks, they run to kiosks to buy snacks. There are also complaints about the increase in prices for school meals.\nOn October 31, 2023, the Cabinet of Ministers approved the strategy for reforming the school nutrition system for 2023-2027."}
+{"text": "Real Property Taxes\nAll real property located within the town limits is subject to taxation, except that which is specifically exempt. Each property is reassessed every three years by the State Department of Assessments and Taxation (SDAT). The property assessment used by the town to calculate the tax represents 100% of full cash value. The real property tax is levied annually on all taxable land and improvements. The tax rate, which is set each year by the Board of Town Commissioners, is currently $0.54 per $100 of assessed value.\nAll property within the town limits is located in Harford County, District 03. The town uses the same property identification number as Harford County, in a format such as \u201c03-123456\u201d.\nIf you wish to change your mailing address, as the \"Owner\" of the property, please complete the Address Change Request Form. Please forward the completed form to the Town via email to email@example.com\nSemi-Annual Tax Payment PlanAs of July 1, 2000, the State of Maryland authorized a mandatory semi-annual tax payment plan, whereby a property owner of an owner-occupied property can pay 50% of their property tax by September 30 and the remaining 50% (with an additional service charge) by December 31. The service charge calculated by the town must be approved by the state and is approved by the Board of Town Commissioners each year as part of the final budget resolution.\nIn the event that the second installment is not timely paid by December 31, interest, at the rate of 1.5% per month, will start to accrue on the unpaid balance. Property owners not wishing to pay on a semi-annual basis must expressly opt out by notifying their mortgage company. The department mails reminder notices for the second installment during the first week of December each year.\nAs of July 1, 2012, the State of Maryland passed a bill that gave businesses with a cumulative (town, county, and state) real estate tax less than $100,000 an option to pay the taxes semi-annually.\nPayment InformationReal property taxes are assessed and billed in advance on a fiscal year basis, commencing July 1 of each year, and the town bills and collects its own real property taxes. Interest will start to accrue, at the rate of 1.5% per month, on October 1 of each year for annual and for the first installment for semi-annual payers.\nTaxes shall become delinquent on April 1, nine months after they have been levied. Properties with delinquent taxes will be advertised six times between April and June and will be taken to tax sale on the third Monday of June if they remain unpaid. Taxpayers whose accounts have been advertised and/or go to tax sale will be responsible for advertising costs. The department mails delinquent notices for unpaid taxes during the first week of March each year. After March 31, checks will no longer be accepted as a form of payment for delinquent accounts. The liability for timely payment is the responsibility of the property owner, irrespective of whether a mortgage lender customarily makes payment from an escrow.\nThe Town provides for exemptions under State law for disabled veterans and blind persons, as well as credits certified by the Town\u2019s Historic District Commission. The State also administers a Homeowner\u2019s Property Tax Credit Program and the Homestead Tax Credit Program. For the State\u2019s credit or exemption programs, please visit the State Department of Assessments and Taxation website."}

If true, for many species, this would be a significant northward shift into tundra habitats where they are currently absent.\n\u201cSmall mammal species such as shrews and voles, and larger species like wolverine and marmots have been in Alaska for many thousands of years and have responded to past climate cycles just as they are responding to the current warming trend,\u201d said Dr. Andrew Hope, lead author of the study and former researcher with the U.S. Geological Survey.\n\u201cSince these mammals experienced past climate cycles, we were able to interpret signatures of population level responses to those climate events recorded in their DNA, and then also use that information to predict likely shifts in animal distributions throughout Alaska into the future,\u201d said Hope.\nResearchers that participated in the study with Hope examined at total of 28 mammal species including those from both northern tundra and relatively more southern boreal forest habitats. The scientists determined the northern movement by looking at current geographic distribution of the animals, coupled with their historical range, and then interpreted from genetic signatures of response to past climate changes to predict where they will likely be found in 2050 and 2080.\nHope worked on the project with researchers from the USGS, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service\u2019s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, the City College of New York, the University of Nevada-Reno, and the University of New Mexico. The study leveraged genetic data collected over the past several decades in multiple laboratories.\n\u201cThis approach allowed us to examine the consistency among predicted changes to mammal distributions and determine if there are differences in management implications across regions,\u201d said David Payer, chair of the Arctic Landscape Conservation Cooperative and a co-author of the study.\nThis study highlights the value of analyzing many species associated with discrete ecological communities that each share different evolutionary histories.\nHope conducted the research as a post-doctoral fellow at the USGS.\nThe study was published in the Ecological Society of America\u2019s journal Ecosphere.\nVisit the USGS Alaska Science Center for more information."}
+{"text": "|V838 Mon: aftermath of a stellar merger\n|V838 Mon is one of the most enigmatic objects observed in stellar astrophysics in recent decades. It came to attention when it underwent a powerful eruptive outburst in Jan. 2002, increasing in luminosity by a factor of 100 over a period of 3 months. Immediately following this event a spectacular light echo was formed from the outburst light reflecting off the surrounding dust. Hubble Space Telescope images following this expanding light echo have brought V838 Mon to public attention. What makes V838 Mon an unusual star is that the outburst is not of any type heretofore seen; the scenarios of a nova-like event or thermonuclear runaway have been discounted, on the basis of the stellar type and outburst details. The theories that best explain the outburst are a giant star engulfing a planetary system or, more likely, a merger between a very low mass star and a very young, maybe pre-main sequence low-intermediate mass star. Observations show that the envelope of the star expanded in response to the stellar impact, and than it may now be beginning to contract. Many O-bearing molecules, dust, an SiO maser and possibly a jet have been observed from the star. If the outburst was indeed caused by the merging of two stars, this is an extremely rare event. Herschel observations of this star will allow us to model the kinematics, chemistry, temperature and density structure of the stellar photosphere and the cool envelope surrounding the star. These will help answer questions still remaining about the stellar impact, and will also allow us to understand more about how a star responds to such a violent event.\n|On the properties of dust and gas in the environs of V838 Monocerotis .

The progress of science and technology as a path to peace\nSacred Scripture attests that God bestowed his Spirit upon human beings so that they might have \u201cskill and understanding and knowledge in every craft\u201d (Ex 35:31). Human intelligence is an expression of the dignity with which we have been endowed by the Creator, who made us in his own image and likeness (cf. Gen 1:26), and enabled us to respond consciously and freely to his love. In a particular way, science and technology manifest this fundamentally relational quality of human intelligence; they are brilliant products of its creative potential.\nIn its Pastoral Constitution Gaudium et Spes, the Second Vatican Council restated this truth, declaring that \u201cthrough its labours and its native endowments, humanity has ceaselessly sought to better its life\u201d.  When human beings, \u201cwith the aid of technology\u201d, endeavour to make \u201cthe earth a dwelling worthy of the whole human family\u201d,  they carry out God\u2019s plan and cooperate with his will to perfect creation and bring about peace among peoples. Progress in science and technology, insofar as it contributes to greater order in human society and greater fraternal communion and freedom, thus leads to the betterment of humanity and the transformation of the world.\nWe rightly rejoice and give thanks for the impressive achievements of science and technology, as a result of which countless ills that formerly plagued human life and caused great suffering have been remedied. At the same time, techno-scientific advances, by making it possible to exercise hitherto unprecedented control over reality, are placing in human hands a vast array of options, including some that may pose a risk to our survival and endanger our common home. \nThe remarkable advances in new information technologies, particularly in the digital sphere, thus offer exciting opportunities and grave risks, with serious implications for the pursuit of justice and harmony among peoples. Any number of urgent questions need to be asked. What will be the consequences, in the medium and long term, of these new digital technologies? And what impact will they have on individual lives and on societies, on international stability and peace? \u2026\u2026\nRead Pope Francis\u2019s Full Message HERE"}
+{"text": "Your idea of planning for the future may include vacations and visits to family and friends \u2014 estate planning, not so much. However, it should, advises Real Simple in the article \u201cEverything You Need to Know About Estate Planning\u2014and Why You Should Start Now.\u201d Estate planning concerns decisions about distributing your property when you die, and while that\u2019s not as much fun as planning a trip to an adventure park, it\u2019s become increasingly important for adults of all ages.\nA survey by Caring.com found that the number of young adults with a will (ages 18-34) increased by 63 percent since 2020. Many tough lessons were learned through the pandemic, and the importance of having an estate plan was one of them.\nMassachusetts estate planning is more than documents for when you die. There are also documents for what should happen if you become disabled. A will or a trust is one piece of the larger estate plan. An estate plan is also an opportunity to plan for wealth accumulation and building generational wealth, at any level.\nMassachusetts estate planning is for every resident, regardless of their net worth. People with lower incomes actually need estate planning more than the wealthy. There\u2019s less room for error with the proper estate planning. Estate planning is everything from where you want your money to go, to who will be in charge of it and who will be in charge of your minor children, if you have a young family.\nIt may be rare for both parents to die at the same time, but it does happen. Your will is also used to name a guardian to raise your minor children. With no will, the court will decide who raises them.\nIf you\u2019ve filled out 401(k) and life insurance paperwork at work, you\u2019ve started estate planning already. Any document that asks you to name a beneficiary in case of your death is part of your estate plan. Be certain to update these documents. Young adults often name their parents and then neglect to change the beneficiaries when they get married or have children.\nFor single people, estate planning is even more important. If you have no estate plan and no children, everything you own will go to your parents. What if you have a partner or best friend and want them to receive your assets? Without an estate plan, they have no legal rights. An estate planning attorney will know how to plan so your wishes are followed.\nEstate planning includes planning for disability, also known as \u201cincapacity.\u201d If you become too sick to manage your affairs, bills still need to be paid. Who can do that for you? Without an estate plan, a family member will need to go to court to be assigned that role \u2014 or someone you don\u2019t even know may be assigned that role. Your will names an executor to manage your affairs after you die.\nWork with an experienced estate planning attorney to have your will, power of attorney, health care proxy, and other parts of your estate plan created. The court system and processes are complex, and the laws are different in every state. Trying to do it yourself or using a template that you download, could leave you with an invalid will, which will cause more problems than it solves.\nAs a skilled and experienced Massachusetts estate planning attorney, I\u2019ll work with you to create an estate plan that meets your specific needs and protects you, your loved ones, and your assets.

+{"text": "Our memories are rich in detail: we can vividly recall the color of our home, the layout of our kitchen, or the front of our favorite caf\u00e9. How the brain encodes this information has long puzzled neuroscientists.\nPrior to this work, the classic understanding of brain organization was that perceptual regions of the brain represent the world \u201cas it is,\u201d with the brain\u2019s visual cortex representing the external world based on how light falls on the retina, \u201cretinotopically.\u201d In contrast, it was thought that the brain\u2019s memory areas represent information in an abstract format, stripped of details about its physical nature. However, according to the co-authors, this explanation fails to take into account that as information is encoded or recalled, these regions may in fact, share a common code in the brain.\n\u201cWe found that memory-related brain areas encode the world like a \u2018photographic negative\u2019 in space,\u201d says co-lead author Adam Steel, a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences and fellow in the Neukom Institute for Computational Science at Dartmouth. \u201cAnd that \u2018negative\u2019 is part of the mechanics that move information in and out of memory, and between perceptual and memory systems.\u201d\nIn a series of experiments, participants were tested on perception and memory while their brain activity was recorded using a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanner. The team identified an opposing push-pull like coding mechanism, which governs the interaction between perceptual and memory areas in the brain.\nThe results showed that when light hits the retina, visual areas of the brain respond by increasing their activity to represent the pattern of light. Memory areas of the brain also respond to visual stimulation, but, unlike visual areas, their neural activity decreases when processing the same visual pattern.\nThe co-authors report that the study has three unusual findings. The first is their discovery that a visual coding principle is preserved in memory systems.\nThe second is that this visual code is upside-down in memory systems. \u201cWhen you see something in your visual field, neurons in the visual cortex are driving while those in the memory system are quieted,\u201d says senior author Caroline Robertson, an assistant professor of psychological and brain sciences at Dartmouth.\nThird, this relationship flips during memory recall. \u201cIf you close your eyes and remember that visual stimuli in the same space, you\u2019ll flip the relationship: your memory system will be driving, suppressing the neurons in perceptual regions,\u201d says Robertson.\n\u201cOur results provide a clear example of how shared visual information is used by memory systems to bring recalled memories in and out of focus,\u201d says co-lead author Ed Silson, a lecturer of human cognitive neuroscience at the University of Edinburgh.\nMoving forward, the team plans to explore how this push and pull dynamic between perception and memory may contribute to challenges in clinical conditions, including in Alzheimer\u2019s."}

+{"text": "Lazy Wheels Mobile Home Park was supposed to be erased from the Ceres landscape by now and Ceres resident John Warren asked the Ceres Planning Commission why it hasn\u2019t.\nThe Lazy Wheels Mobile Home Park, which sits east of Highway 99 and can be seen across the expansive field in front of Ceres High School considered a community eyesore by the city for decades, is still not gone despite the city ordering its removal no later than 2018.\nWarren had a copy of the minutes of the Aug. 5, 2013 the Ceres Planning Commission agenda in which it approved an action to file a Notice of Nonconformance which limited the park\u2019s use to no more than five years \u2013 meaning it had to be gone by 2018. The city determined that the park, which has been around for 74 years, is no longer a non-conforming use for its zoning and had to be abated by 2018.\n\u201cThe city attorney at that time, Mr. Lyions, explained that if this is adopted and the time limit is set for five years, the new owner will have to acquire it with the knowledge that the use as a mobile home park will be ending and must end within five years,\u201d said Warren. \u201cIt passed. The establishment is still there \u2026 when the new owner took possession it was only 16 months remaining until the end of the five-year period.\u201d\nWarren finished addressing the commission saying \u201cwe\u2019re nine years out and the problem is still there\u201d and asking the commission to \u201ctake some action.\u201d\nCommission Chairwoman Laurie Smith responded by saying staff will investigate and report back at the next meeting.\nThe history of the project involves the state\u2019s purchase of a chunk of land across from Ceres High School north of Whitmore Avenue to change the footprint of the Whitmore interchange as well as the link to local surface streets. The state found it simpler to buy the entire property rather than pieces of what was needed for right-of-way. Some of that land included Lazy Wheels. The state has since sold the land to Sugarman Asset Group which invested in it to either sell or develop the freeway commercial sites.\nThe owner of the property was holding through the process of evictions as dictated by the state Housing and Community Development Department, then COVID-19 hit.\nPart of the delay in abolishing the park resulted from the COVID pandemic and the governor freezing all tenant evictions. That freeze has since been lifted.\nThis was not the first time the state aggravated city\u2019s attempts to have the trailer park abandoned. In 2011 city officials discussed using redevelopment funds to buy the site and remove the coaches \u2013 until Gov. Jerry Brown robbed cites of such funds and the city could not afford the purchase for economic development purposes.\nThe new owners of Lazy Wheels will be required to follow the specific requirements of the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for the closure of mobile home parks. That process will take at least a year or longer, and all residents will be provided with notice as prescribed by HCD. It also requires the owner to make the arrangements for any relocation of residents.\nThe state\u2019s purchase of the park is what triggered the city\u2019s move to declare it is non-conforming to zoning so that a new owner would know that the mobile home park use was not what the city intended to be long-term, even though the park has been around for seven decades.\nSome of the units at the park were purchased and moved off by the state, which never had an intention to own the park for long."}

+{"text": "Dental Instagram Marketing\nToday, it seems like dental clinics are popping up all over the place. This is good news for patients who know that they now have more options, but more dental clinics means that there is more competition for dental practices. To attract new dental patients, many dental practices have been convinced to engage in gimmicky marketing tactics that have minimal efficacy at best. In this sense, there is plenty of room to stand out from the pack for dental clinics that use the right marketing strategies, such as dental Instagram marketing.\nAre You Taking Advantage of Instagram Marketing for Your Dental Practice?\nOf the many popular social media platforms today, Instagram can help your dental practice to establish itself as the trusted authority and to build your brand and promote growth. More people today search for dental clinics on social media than on Google. In addition to dental patients, local businesses also review these posts, and the opinion they share with customers can have a substantial impact on new patient growth.\nInstagram is one of the most powerful networking tools available to any dental clinic. Instagram shares photos and videos to help you connect with your local community. Plus, the informal setting of Instagram reveals the genuine nature of a brand. Patients and new patients can meet your employees, peek at the inner-workings, and over time, a good reputation can earn you referrals from local businesses.\nHow to Do Dental Instagram Marketing\nInstagram enables dental clinics to boost posts and advertisements to increases views. One of the most powerful aspects of social media is its ability to network small businesses. These days, Instagram is connecting businesses virtually. In a very short period, a small business (such as a dental practice), can attract loyal followers and gain recognition from influential voices in town.\nNetworking on Instagram is all about making connections with people and their businesses. On Instagram, you can build relationships and trust over time by sharing moments of life and showing support to others. Dental clinics should be reaching out to other businesses on Instagram, starting with hair salons, restaurants, and real estate agents within a 7-mile radius. These competitive industries will be thankful for your online support and help in keeping them relevant. In turn, they will likely agree to promote your clinic to its customers. The key is to create posts that show professionalism, enthusiasm, and high standards.\nLet Luxate Digital Marketing Help You Be Successful on Instagram\nLet's face it; managing social media is strenuous and time-consuming. That's why Luxate Digital Marketing offers dental Instagram marketing and management. Rather than spending hours each day sharing and contributing on Instagram, you can hire Luxate Digital Marketing to do it for you for a nominal fee. We know how to market on Instagram, and Luxate Digital Marketing works exclusively with dental practices. Contact us today to speak with a dental Instagram marketing pro to discuss your goals."}

It really suited him.\nHe is the reason I do this job. He had quite extreme mental health conditions throughout his life- when he was younger he was diagnosed with schizophrenia and as he got older it became bipolar disorder. They basically couldn\u2019t put him in a box. He had wild episodes of mania that would last months and periods of depression that lasted years. The doctors said they hadn\u2019t seen such an extreme case. In the 70s he had electric shock treatment which he was still very angry about in his 60s. He would get the train to London to talk to the Prime Minister and give away his jumper and guitar to homeless people on the way. He would burgle our house and give away the stuff to new families on the street. Once he ran away and lived at Piccadilly Station for a couple of weeks and wrote me poems every day and left the last line free so I could finish it off (I could never find the words). When he was in hospital he thought he was Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over the Cuckoo\u2019s Nest, playing a game, like he wanted to be there. He looked just like him too. The staff and patients loved him; he was very charismatic.\nWhen my parents split up he got a council flat and some benefits and he stayed active in his local community, ferrying kids to the seaside for Bolton Community Transport and being a care worker. His law degree hung up in the bathroom, never used. He had an episode in 2000 that he never really recovered from, and then he didn\u2019t really leave his flat for 15 years. He became the roots of our family tree, like an Ent from Lord of the Rings. He died 5 years ago.\nMy Dad had a huge loving family that were able to care for him. He was allowed to take time out from life to be poorly then get stuck back in, being a valued member of his community and family. He was afforded this life because of things like the welfare benefits system, social housing, mental health care and all those things that keep a person going. And that\u2019s why I like to help people do these things."}
+{"text": "Torrington is situated on the top of a hill overlooking the River Torridge, after which it is named. The name of the river comes from the old word \u2018toric\u2019 meaning \u2018noisy\u2019 and \u2018violent, rough stream\u2019 as opposed to its companion river, the Taw which means \u2018smooth, placid\u2019. The sources of the two rivers are about 26 miles apart and they follow very different routes before meeting in a broad estuary.\nThe River Torridge rises on the border of north Devon and north Cornwall, just east of the A39, only some 15 miles from where it meets the sea. Brimford Bridge is the first of the Torridge\u2019s many bridges and the river is rather hidden as it meanders through the countryside until it reaches Woodford Bridge. Below the village of Meeth the Torridge is joined by the River Okement bringing waters from Dartmoor.\nThe river approaches Torrington from the direction of Beaford and flows under New Bridge near Orford Mill at the junction on the A386 where the B3124 turns off towards Exeter. This bridge is a majestic structure built very high above the water because of the provision of a dry arch to take the canal (in use 1827-1871) which was on a higher level than the river. The next bridge to cross the river is the one at Taddiport probably built in the 13th century and originally known as Town Bridge. The river then flows under the old railway bridge (now part of the Tarka Trail) before passing under Rolle Bridge opened in 1928 which carries the main road from Torrington to Bideford. Just beyond this bridge is the old Rothern Bridge which, with Taddiport Bridge, was one of the town\u2019s original bridges and dates from at least the 14th century.\nThe river continues on to Weare Giffard, looping through woodland and meadows and crossed three times by the Tarka Trail. Weare Giffard marks the tidal limit of the River Torridge and, being low-lying, the village has suffered flooding on many occasions.\nBideford Long Bridge dates from the latter part of the 15th century and has been widened at various times and in a variety of ways to cope with the demands of modern traffic. Before the building of the present stone bridge, there were at least three different wooden structures which were in use from the late 13th century. Further downstream is the new Bideford bridge, a soaring curve high up above the river which was opened in 1987. The Taw and the Torridge meet just beyond Appledore and Instow and flow together out through Barnstaple or Bideford Bay to the Atlantic."}

+{"text": "Carbon fiber has revolutionized industries with its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, making it a popular choice for various applications, including car parts. However, misconceptions often surround this material, with one prevailing question: Does carbon fiber crack easily? In this blog, we'll debunk this myth and explore the durability of carbon fiber, particularly in the context of automotive parts sold by Feral Industries.\nUnderstanding Carbon Fiber Composition\nCarbon fiber is composed of thin strands of carbon tightly woven together and held in place by a polymer resin. This unique structure gives it unparalleled strength, making it an ideal choice for high-performance applications. Contrary to common belief, the composition of carbon fiber doesn't predispose it to easy cracking.\nFlexibility and Impact Resistance\nOne of the key attributes of carbon fiber is its flexibility. Unlike traditional materials, carbon fiber doesn't deform or crack easily under stress. Instead, it tends to flex, making it highly resistant to impact. This property is crucial for automotive applications, where parts are subjected to varying degrees of stress and strain.\nQuality Manufacturing Matters\nThe durability of carbon fiber products, including car parts, depends significantly on the manufacturing process. Feral Industries is committed to delivering high-quality carbon fiber components. Our manufacturing standards ensure proper resin impregnation, precise layering, and meticulous curing, minimizing the risk of cracking or structural issues.\nEnvironmental Factors and UV Resistance\nSome materials are prone to degradation when exposed to environmental elements. Carbon fiber, however, boasts excellent resistance to UV rays and harsh weather conditions. This resistance ensures that carbon fiber car parts remain structurally sound over time, reducing the likelihood of cracks due to environmental factors.\nRegular Maintenance and Care\nWhile carbon fiber is inherently robust, proper care is essential for maintaining its integrity. Regular inspections and timely maintenance can identify potential issues before they escalate. Feral Industries provides guidelines for the care of carbon fiber car parts to ensure longevity and optimal performance.\nIn conclusion, the myth that carbon fiber cracks easily is dispelled by understanding its composition, flexibility, and impact resistance. Feral Industries stands behind the durability of its carbon fiber car parts, emphasizing the importance of quality manufacturing, UV resistance, and proper maintenance.\nCarbon Fiber Car Parts From Feral Industries\nFor automotive enthusiasts seeking reliable and durable carbon fiber car parts, Feral Industries is your trusted source. Explore our collection of high-quality components that combine performance with longevity. Contact us today to elevate your driving experience with Feral Industries' top-notch carbon fiber solutions.

+{"text": "There\u2019s no question that drones are going to change the way that people live and businesses work. These light flying devices have already been trialled for delivering vehicle parts to service technicians, and online shopping items to customers. According to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), 2.85 million small drones could fill the sky by 2022 and 450 000 of them will be used for commercial purposes.\n\u201cDrones are shaping the way business is done across a variety of sectors,\u201d explains Vera Nagtegaal, executive head of online comparison website Hippo.co.za. \u201cThe insurance industry is no exception to this, with some insurance companies having already started to use drones to assess damages and claims.\u201d\nNagtegaal points out that insurers have already been experimenting with drones \u2013 or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) \u2013 for about five years.\n\u201cIn the United States, for example, the FAA loosened regulations on drones used commercially and, as a result, many insurers started using them as a way to assist in building risk profiles and assessing claims.\u201d\nIn South Africa, Old Mutual iWYZE passed the operational audit and demonstration flights required by the South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) and is now in the process of obtaining its remotely piloted aircraft licence. Once complete, the drones will be used in the assessment of car accidents.\n\u201cDrones are also extremely helpful for property insurance assessments in hard-to-reach places like roofs, as well as large structures like warehouses, office buildings or commercial boilers, which can be several stories high,\u201d says Nagtegaal.\n\u201cThey can also assist with inspections of damage in the wake of disasters like earthquakes or flooding.\u201d\nShe adds that, previously, these types of inspections or assessments required scaffolding to be built, risky constructions to be scaled, or larger aircraft to be chartered. \u201cDrones, however, do away with all of these requirements.\u201d\nDrones are cheaper to use, they can travel faster and they are able to access unsafe areas unlike insurance assessors, who for instance are unable to visit hazardous sites after a disaster has occurred.\n\u201cDrones cut costs and time spent on inspections, allowing insurers to utilise resources more effectively. This ultimately has a benefit to the end consumer with their claims being processed more efficiently,\u201d says Nagtegaal.\nInsurance fraud can also be limited if drones are employed effectively. Insurers will be able to capture aerial images of properties when policies are taken out, and these can be compared to drone camera images after any damage has occurred. In doing so, this ensures that policyholders do not claim for existing damage to property.\n\u201cAs with any advancement in insurance, the introduction of drones will serve to reduce false claims and expedite claims processes, which will contribute to the long-term efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the industry,\u201d says Nagtegaal.\n\u201cWhile the costs of establishing a functional drone service will be borne by insurance companies, this is the price of progress,\u201d she says. \u201cI do believe that this benefit everyone in the insurance value chain, including the employees who no longer have to place themselves in dangerous situations to assess damages.\u201d"}

The bill also extends the period of time that post-9/11 combat veterans have to enroll in VA Care from 5 years to 10 years post-discharge. The bill is intended to help veterans who were exposed to burn pits, Agent Orange and other toxic substances.\n\"Coverage for those issues had been a point of contention for years,\" the Military Times reported. \"In particular, veterans advocates lamented that too many serious problems believed linked to burn pit exposure were being ignored by VA leaders because of incomplete science linking the health problems with the toxic smoke from the waste fires.\"\nSince Biden signed the act Aug. 10, more than 185,000 veterans have applied for related benefits. In four months, more than 660,000 veterans have received the new PACT Act VA toxic exposure screenings, with nearly 39% reporting a concern of exposure, said Terrence L.

+{"text": "This paradox of \u201chunger in the midst of plenty\u201d surfaced recently with a textbook shortage in Philadelphia\u2019s school district \u2014 the eighth-largest in the U.S.\nIn 2013, the average school here had only 27 percent of textbooks recommended by the district\u2019s curriculum. Ten schools had no books at all while others had books deemed obsolete.\nIn 2013, Philadelphia\u2019s School Reform Commission authorized just $18 million for textbooks for 242 schools \u2014 roughly one-quarter of the amount needed. By year\u2019s end, the book budget was eliminated. Budgets in 2014 and 2015 contained no allocations for books.\nAccording to the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers, teachers spent $300 to $1,000 of their own money supplementing their meager budgets for books and classroom supplies.\nNow it seems, the books were available all along. Thousands of books, many still shrink wrapped, were recently discovered gathering dust in the blockwide basement of the school district\u2019s headquarters and in empty classrooms, hallways and library shelves of Bok High School, closed in 2013. (Philly.com, Mar. 18)\nThis surplus came to light after one teacher, tired of using fundraising websites to buy books for her students, began asking questions. She\u2019d heard about the warehoused books and wanted some.\nIn a district where nearly 60 percent of students read below grade level, the science, algebra and literature textbooks found piled in boxes could make a difference. The PFT is calling on its members to distribute the discarded books to classrooms where they are needed.\nThree years of massive funding cuts and the layoff of over 5,000 Philadelphia school employees left the district without staff to inventory the textbooks.\nIn addition to books, pianos and band instruments were warehoused at Bok, items badly needed by schools that closed music programs for lack of supplies.\nProfit motive is part of the problem\nIn response to the outcry over the stockpiled books, school district spokespeople responded that many of the texts were \u201coutdated.\u201d But, parents and teachers asked, aren\u2019t older literary classics and math and science books better than no books at all?\nThe answer lies with the profit motive driving Common Core testing. While basic subjects like science, math and literature have not changed, the questions found on standardized tests have. CTB McGraw Hill, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and Pearson Education, who write and grade these tests, also publish the books that students need to prepare for them. Test questions are often taken verbatim from these textbooks.\nIn 2013, Houghton Mifflin earned $1.38 million from textbooks that students needed to pass its tests. McGraw-Hill, which produces the branded math curriculum used by most of Philadelphia\u2019s K-5 schools, is part of a Pennsylvania consortium given a $186 million federal contract to write and grade standardized tests.\nIn 2013, more than half of Philadelphia students scored less than proficient on the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment tests because they lacked access to the books containing the standardized answers.\nTextbook shortages are not unique to Philadelphia. School districts in New York City, the District of Columbia, Chicago, Los Angeles and other major cities also lack money to buy books. Students should not suffer from a failed system that puts profits before people\u2019s needs. Make the greedy corporations pay!"}

+{"text": "The end of the life of a lock is reached when the lock breaks or is outdated. An outdated lock must be replaced because it no longer protects against the latest burglary methods. An outdated lock still works. You can lock the house and enter. But because burglars have invented new ways to open locks, an old lock no longer offers the required degree of protection.\nTo prevent the wear of locks or to postpone other defects in your locks as long as possible, it is best to choose high-quality locks at the time of purchase. A significant indicator of this is the quality mark.\nCommon problems with locks\nWith high-quality locks, you won\u2019t have any problems. However, there are always things that can happen due to which a lock can no longer function properly. For example, it can happen that a key can suddenly no longer turn in the lock or that the key does turn, but the lock no longer locks the door (the door can no longer be closed properly).\nAnother common problem in the cold Tampa is frozen locks. But even with the warm weather, one can run into the problem that the door frames in the house expand so that a door no longer closes. However, there are specific actions that you can perform yourself that can prevent these problems and extend the life of a lock.\n1. Copy keys\nA common problem with a lock is that you can no longer turn the key in the lock. This problem can have several causes. We often see that the problem is not caused by the lock but by the key used. The key can be damaged or worn out due to frequent use. As a result, the key no longer fits properly in the lock\u2019s cylinder. One way to avoid this problem is only to copy the original keys.\nEvery household sometimes has keys duplicated so that all family members have their keys with them. By keeping an actual key for possible copying, you ensure that the copy keys resemble the original as closely as possible. When a used or copied key is used, it will show more and more deviations. It can lead to the problem that you can no longer turn the key properly in the lock.\n2. Maintenance of your lock\nWhen you notice that a key no longer turns easily in the lock, you can ensure that this does not happen more often in the future with a bit of maintenance now and then. For example, spray lubricating oil into the lock so that its mechanism functions smoothly again. A lubricant can also offer a solution for a frozen lock\n3. Enlist the help of a locksmith in time\nIf none of these actions solve your troubles, you can always approach a Locksmith. In case of issues that you cannot solve yourself, or for some extra advice on how best to maintain your locks, it is best to call in one of our Locksmith Largo FL. Our expert technician can solve your problem so that you do not have to purchase a new cylinder or lock.\nWe often see people run off with the cylinders themselves without actually knowing what they are doing. This often causes even more problems and especially a lot of unnecessary damage to the lock. And one usually has to have a new cylinder placed because the mechanic can no longer make your lock. All in all, with doubts or situations that you cannot solve yourself, always call All In One Locksmith! We will be happy to help you."}

+{"text": "I felt it this weekend.\nI sat high in the football stand, scanning the crowd below, watching the players move the ball. I knew in that moment I was in love\u2013with a town, as if love could be as wide as streets and people and fight songs and friends.\nI\u2019m terrified to admit this.\nBecause I fear being happy in a place. I moved as a child, too much for my liking (as if I could control that). The nature of moving uproots me, rips out my roots, sometimes leaving tendrils of them still in the soil I\u2019m torn from. Once married, we continued the tradition, new towns, new states, a new country. The move to France fully ripped me apart in every hard, yet good way.

+{"text": "Hitomi, a body-mind-soul therapist\nI first encountered alternative therapy in 2011 when I went to England to study Facial Reflexology created by Lone Sorensen. There I met a reflexologist, Angela Sellens Drake, and then started to travel to England repeatedly to have private intensive tuition from her in Norwich. I was impressed with Angela's style of light touch reflexology inspired by the idea of Chris Stormer's 'Language of the Feet'.\nLearning light touch reflexology from Angela made me interested in Maternity reflexology where light touch technique was absolutely required. I attended Suzanne Enzer's Part 1 course for qualified reflexologists in 2013 and then her successor, Jenni Tribe's Part 2 course in 2015.\nHaving found myself unbalanced both physically and emotionally after losing my grandmother, I started to explore new modalities besides reflexology/massage and learn kinesiology from 2015.\nI found that it was not enough just to passively receive relaxing session in order to recover form such state and take a step forward into a new life. The necessary thing was to get over the old pattern we had had from the very beginning of our life. When I was learning about primitive reflexes, I was very surprised to know that it could date back to the time when we were fetus in the uterus, unconsciously acquiring our own patterns with regards to how to perceive, move our body, and behave, which would then be applied to every moment in our lifetime. When we are stressed or faced with unexpected events, unintegrated primitive reflexes tend to be reactivated, and then we often feel lost, finding difficult to get out of the pattern and explore a new life.\nSince then my passion of offering sessions comes from the purpose of empowering women, freeing them from their survival patterns. I did three important courses.\nFirstly I became qualified as a Brain Gym\u00ae in Melbourne, Australia, in 2017. Brain Gym\u00ae is a modality by which people can optimize their ability with a combination of goal setting and doing symple physical activities to reactivate their nerve systems.\nSecondly, I learnt Aura-Soma Cranio Sacral touch from Maria Darbellay in Italy in 2017. Craniosacral therapy has a good effect on relaxing the brain, the nerves, the spine, and the sacrum and freeing people from their survival patterns and traumatic memories including birth trauma.\nThirdly, I became qualified as a Metamorphic Technique\u00ae practitioner in England in 2018. Metamorphic Technique\u00ae is a modality to exclusively work on the spinal reflexes where prenatal patterns are believed to be embedded.\nFinally I completed my journey of learning by reattending Jenni Tribe's course in Belfast in 2018 to be qualified as a maternity reflexologist.\nI started my practice in 2021 and am still attending online meetings held all over the world."}

For their heart studieth destruction, and their lips talk of mischief.\nOUTLOOK ON THE IN BOOK:\nThe riches of the world can entice anyone. You might be saying, \u201cNo, not me.\u201d However, if someone came up with just the right offer, it could even be you. It is often not so much a desire to be filthy rich, just richer. It is not to have it all, just more. It is not to be the greatest, just better. What drives most people today is the thought of, \u201cI just want a little more.\u201d Most people today are a little better off than they were five or ten years ago. Yet isn\u2019t it funny we still want just a little more. The question then is, when does it ever end?\nBeing successful and having things, even by the world\u2019s standards, is not in itself a sin. However, falling into the trap of allowing our desires to take over to the point where we will do almost anything to get more, is when it becomes greed and sin.\nThe Bible warns us against wanting so much that we end up following after or joining with sinful men to get it. Why? It\u2019s because their end will be destruction. Prov. 24:20 says, \u201cFor there shall be no reward to the evil man.\u201d\nThe world has little in common with you as a Christian. They desire to glorify self, while you should be glorifying God. Their desire is to lay up treasure here on earth, and yours should be to lay up treasures in heaven. They will compromise anything to get ahead; you should never be willing to compromise your testimony to get anything. They love man and want what man can offer; you love God and all He offers. They want people to help them get ahead in life; you want to help people get ahead in this life and eternally. There is little you have in common except this, both of you have eternal life. One has chosen eternal life in heaven with Christ; one has by default chosen an eternal life in hell.\nTHE WORD WALKING IN ME:\nAs you make decisions which may seem very innocent on the surface, remember, what you decide today and whom you decide to do it with, may make a difference in your life, and the lives of others for years to come. Let\u2019s be thankful for what God has given us today and be not envious of the world.\nGOD TALKING TO ME: September 29, 2020\nTHROUGH THE BIBLE WITH DAILY PROVERBS\nMatthew 13 \u2013 14 / Proverbs 24:1-2\nTHROUGH THE BIBLE OLD & NEW TESTAMENT DAILY\nSong of So. 5-8 / Gal. 6\nLiving In His Word Ministries\n\u201cGetting people into the Word of God\u2026\n\u2026 and the Word of God into people.\u201d\nDr. Franklin J.

This is to reduce the risk of localised reactions which are more common via the subcutaneous route.\n- If the patient has a bleeding disorder then a subcutaneous route is preferred.\nDosage immunisation schedule (in most circumstances, a total of five doses of vaccine should give long-term protection, WHO recommends 6):\n- 1st, 2nd and 3rd dose should be given 1 month apart (usually at 2, 3 and 4 months of age as a DTaP/IPV/Hib).\n- If this time frame is missed it can be initiated at any time after 2 months of age.\n- If the schedule is interrupted it should be resumed and not repeated.\n- The first booster should be given 3 years after completion of the primary course. Or if there has been delay in the primary course, 1 year after completion.\n- The second booster should be given 10 years after the first booster. If there has been a delay in the usual regimen then the second booster may be given 5 years as a minimum interval after the first booster.\nImmunisation recommendations for clean and tetanus prone wounds (UK):\nTetanus prone wounds:\n- Wounds or burns that require surgical intervention that is delayed for more than 6 hours.\n- Wounds or burns that show a significant degree of devitalised tissue or a puncture-type injury, particularly where there has been contact with soil or manure.\n- Wounds containing foreign bodies.\n- Compound fractures.\n- Wounds or burns in patients who have systemic sepsis.\nHigh risk is regarded as any wound mentioned above that is heavily contained with material likely to contain tetanus spores and/or extensive devitalised tissue.\nContraindications or complications and special populations:\n- Other vaccines can be given at the same time.\n- It is safe in pregnancy and in breastfeeding mothers.\n- Intravenous drug users should be given regular boosters and this should be asked regularly when they do attend a practitioner.\n- HIV patients should be discussed with a specialist if they develop tetanus or have a tetanus prone wound to review their antibody response.\n- Contraindications include a confirmed anaphylactic reaction to a previous tetanus containing vaccine or confirmed anaphylactic reaction to neomycin, streptomycin or polymyxin B.

Downstream operation principally made up of Port operation and Bunkering, while the upstream consists of Insurance, connectivity logistics and shipping activities.\nDue to a number of inherent challenges,the Port operation is not performing optimally as Nigeria operates only in the port operation aspect of downstream operation.\n\u201cToday, Nigeria has not fully utilized the opportunity offered by the upstream maritime economy. This explains why Maritime sector has not contributed substantially to Nigerian economy.\n\u201cIn an effort to reposition Nigerian economy particularly the maritime sector, the managers of our economy need to pay requisite attention\u201d,Bello \u2013 Koko stressed.\nHe added that the electronic Truck-traffic Call-up system in Lagos Pilotage District towards addressing Truck congestion along the port access road has been effective saying that management has licensed of Thirty-Seven Satellite Truck Parks (with the capacity to accommodate 7,000 trucks) to service the incoming trucks to the ports in Lagos under the Electronic Truck Call-Up System (ETO) which became operational in July, 2021.\nAccording to the Managing Director,the registration and licensing of Twenty-Eight empty containers holding bays with a total capacity of 137,000 TEUs has also come on stream to tackle traffic situation along the port corridors."}

Differences in color, grain, appearance and texture are inherent in all natural woodwork, and should be expected. Variances in these qualities are not deemed manufacturing defects, and will not be accepted as valid reasons to return or exchange any LACAVA wood bathroom furnishings. Wood samples provided by LACAVA are intended to represent the average appearance of each wood finish, and should not be viewed as exact representations of every individual piece of woodwork.\nWe offer a wide range of natural, stained and painted finishes for bath furnishings made of wood.\nNatural woods gradually change color over time depending on the initial wood color and element exposure. It's a natural aging process and should be expected. Generally, dark woods become lighter, light woods become darker, and direct sunlight will have a bleaching effect on any wood, as the UV light waves break down the chemical bonds of elements.\nThere is no one color-change definition that fits all woods species equally though; for example, natural cherry wood starts with light yellow, orange, and pink hues and over time becomes reddish and brown when exposed to natural light. Bamboo also darkens over time, while natural walnut starts with darker hues and becomes lighter with time. If the color change inherent to natural woods is not desired, stained woods offer a better color stability; nonetheless, stained colors will also change over long periods of time depending on the element and light exposure.\nFurniture pieces intended to be installed in the same room, especially when adjacent to one another, should be ordered at the same time to be produced in the same batch. This will ensure close match of patterns, wood grain, and color hues. Furniture pieces coming from different batches might have slight variances in color hues and different wood grain patterns. This is normal manufacturing process and should be taken into consideration when ordering wood furniture.\nOptional fluttini pattern on front and/or sides available for all finishes except weathered oak, driftwood, textured finishes.

According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) between 2005 and 2009 juvenile firesetters were responsible on average for 56,300 fires annually and, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, over the past twenty years more than half of juvenile arrests have been for arson. The Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) Juvenile Firesetter Intervention Handbook provides risk assessment tools to assess future firesetting involvement. The fire service, because of its role in fire suppression and investigation, is often the initial contact for these juveniles. This study examined the characteristics, operations, and utility of the Handbook's assessment instruments. Findings were that while programs operate according to FEMA\u2019s guidelines, fewer than half utilized FEMA's assessment instruments."}
+{"text": "A team at UC Riverside led by computer science assistant professor Ahmed Eldawy is collaborating with researchers at Stanford University and Vanderbilt University to develop a dataset that uses data science to study the spread of wildfires. The dataset can be used to simulate the spread of wildfires to help firefighters plan emergency response and conduct evacuation. It can also help simulate how fires might spread in the near future under the effects of deforestation and climate change, and aid risk assessment and planning of new infrastructure development.\nThe open-source dataset, named WildfireDB, contains over 17 million data points that capture how fires have spread in the contiguous United States over the last decade. The dataset can be used to train machine learning models to predict the spread of wildfires.\n\u201cOne of the biggest challenges is to have a detailed and curated dataset that can be used by machine learning algorithms,\u201d said Eldawy. \u201cWildfireDB is the first comprehensive and open-source dataset that relates historical fire data with relevant covariates such as weather, vegetation, and topography.\u201d\nFirst responders depend on understanding and predicting how a wildfire spreads to save lives and property and to stop the fire from spreading. They need to figure out the best way to allocate limited resources across large areas. Traditionally, fire spread is modeled by tools that use physics-based modeling. This method could be improved with the addition of more variables, but until now, there was no comprehensive, open-source data source that combines fire occurrences with geo-spatial features such as mountains, rivers, towns, fuel levels, vegetation, and weather.\nEldawy, along with UCR doctoral student Samriddhi Singla and undergraduate researcher Vinayak Gajjewar, utilized a novel system called Raptor, which was developed at UCR to process high-resolution satellite data such as vegetation and weather. Using Raptor, they combined historical wildfires with other geospatial features, such as weather, topography, and vegetation, to build a dataset at a scale that included the most of the United States.\nWildfireDB has mapped historical fire data in the contiguous United States between 2012 to 2017 with spatial and temporal resolutions that allow researchers to home in on the daily behavior of fire in regions as small as 375-meter square polygons. Each fire occurrence includes type of vegetation, fuel type, and topography. The dataset does not include Alaska or Hawaii.\nTo use the dataset, researchers or firefighters can select information relevant to their situation from WildfireDB and train machine learning models that can model the spread of wildfires. These trained models can then be used by firefighters or researchers to predict the spread of wildfires in real time.\n\u201cPredicting the spread of wildfire in real time will allow firefighters to allocate resources accordingly and minimize loss of life and property\u201d said Singla, the paper\u2019s first author.\nThe paper, \u201cWildfireDB: an open-source dataset connecting wildfire spread with relevant determinants,\u201d will be presented at the 35th Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS 2021) Track on Datasets and Benchmarks and is available here. A visualization of the dataset is available here.

+{"text": "Introducing a call for papers for the proposed workshop on Self-Programming in AGI Systems. The workshop will be part of the next conference on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), hosted by Google, Inc. August 3-6th, at its headquarter facilities in Mountain view, California, USA.\nA compact description of areas of interest is included in this post, and full descriptions, questions of interest, information and submission guidelines can be found on our dedicated workshop page.\nSelf-Programming in AGI Systems \u2013 Call for Papers\nThe behavior of a computer system consists of a sequence of operations. A major difference between conventional systems and intelligent systems is that the former follow predetermined programs provided by human programmers, while the latter systems are capable of \u201cself-programming\u201d in the sense that their behavior is not always explicitly specified by a human, but rather \u201cdecided by the system itself\u201d to various degrees. In a broad sense many existing AI techniques can be considered as capable of \u201cself-programming\u201d, including, for example, abilities for searching, planning, production systems, genetic programming, inductive logic programming, reinforcement learning, reactive agent/robot, adaptive agent/robot and so on. Therefore, self-programming is often achieved via learning, though there are other possibilities.\nArtificial General Intelligence\nThe term \u201cartificial general intelligence\u201d (AGI) refers to general-purpose systems with an integrative and holistic intellectual and cognitive abilities. For a system to be considered AGI, some form of self-programming is necessary component, since such systems have to be capable of learning whole new skill-sets from experience, not simply improving performance on a single or a small set of pre-programmed tasks. Existing AI techniques can only achieve this to a certain degree and many problems remain unsolved. Many techniques are yet to be discovered to achieve advanced levels of system autonomy. Given the special requirements of AGI, we need to compare and evaluate alternative answers to fundamental questions related to self-programming processes.\nThe proposed AGI-11 Workshop on \u201cSelf-Programming in AGI Systems\u201d provides an opportunity for AGI researchers to discuss these questions. Please see our dedicated workshop page for further information.\nThe AGI conference, the 4th in its series, will be held August 3-6th (Wed-Sat), 2011. The exact date of the workshop has yet to be determined. Information is provided on the official AGI Conference Website.\nWorkshop Organizing Committee\nKristinn R.

It is a book to recommend to your friends in industry - even to your bosses - but not to your competitors.\nAlex Rogo is a harried plant manager working ever more desperately to try improve performance. His factory is rapidly heading for disaster. So is his marriage. He has ninety days to save his plant - or it will be closed by corporate HQ, with hundreds of job losses. It takes a chance meeting with a professor from student days - Jonah - to help him break out of conventional ways of thinking to see what needs to be done. The story of Alex's fight to save his plant is more than compulsive reading. It contains a serious message for all managers in industry and explains the ideas, which underline the Theory of Constraints (TOC), developed by Eli Goldratt.\nOne of Eli Goldratt s convictions was that the goal of an individual or an organization should not be defined in absolute terms. A good definition of a goal is one that sets us on a path of ongoing improvement.\nPursuing such a goal necessitates more than one breakthrough. In fact it requires many. To be in a position to identify these breakthroughs we should have a deep understanding of the underlying rules of our environment. Twenty-five years after writing The Goal, Dr. Goldratt wrote Standing on the Shoulders of Giants. In this article he provided the underlying rules of operations.

+{"text": "Embeddings Among Toruses and Meshes\nToruses and meshes include graphs of many varieties of topologies, with lines, rings, and hypercubes being special cases. Given a d-dimensional torus or mesh G and a c-dimensional torus or mesh H of the same size, we study the problem of embedding G in H to minimize the dilation cost. For increasing dimension cases (d < c) in which the shapes of G and H satisfy the condition of expansion, the dilation costs of our embeddings are either 1 or 2, depending on the types of graphs of G and H. These embeddings a,re optimal except when G is a torus of even size and H is a mesh. For lowering dimension cases (d > c) in which the shapes of G and H satisfy the condition of reduction, the dilation costs of our embeddings depend on the shapes of G and H. These embeddings, however, are not optimal in general. For the special cases in which G and H are square, the embedding results above can always be used to construct embeddings of G in H: these embeddings are all optimal for increasing dimension cases in which the dimension of H is divisible by the dimension of G, and all optimal to within a constant for fixed values of d and c for lowering dimension cases. Our main analysis technique is based on a generalization of Gray code for radix-2 (binary) numbering system to similar sequences for mixed-radix numbering systems."}

Typically interposed between a US parent company and a Canadian operating company, these entities quietly function to make such structures more tax efficient. They are facilitated by Nova Scotia's venerable Companies Act, which has allowed for the incorporation of corporations with unlimited liability for over a hundred years. Unlimited liability of shareholders is the singular defining characteristic of the ULC, but the precise nature of ULC shareholder liability was apparently regarded as something of a technicality and rarely, if ever, closely examined in the professional or academic literature or considered by the courts. Perhaps unlimited liability was considered too familiar a concept to require detailed analysis, or perhaps it was considered irrelevant in practice because the debts of modern ULCs are typically guaranteed by their parent companies. In such a structure, the liability of the parent company seems clear This apparent clarity proved illusory, however, following the recent financial crisis, when a number of ULC parent companies faced bankruptcy and restructuring and the precise nature of their unlimited liability was suddenly the subject of intense scrutiny and conflict.\nSarah P.

Nearly 90% of people who only owned handguns used a firearm in their suicide death, compared to about 82% of those who only owned shotguns.\nThe study, published online Feb. 11 in the journal Archives of Suicide Research, also found that the more firearms a person owned, the less likely they were to use one to take their own life.\nThe finding surprised study author Michael Anestis. He is executive director of the New Jersey Gun Violence Research Center at Rutgers University, in West Piscataway.\n\"Although such stockpiling may increase the odds of other problematic outcomes, it appears from our results that the risk for firearm suicide may actually be highest among those who own only one or a small number of firearms,\" Anestis said in a university news release.\nSuicide deaths have increased 33% in the United States in the last 18 years, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.\nIn an attempt to reduce suicides, researchers are trying to identify factors that affect whether a person uses a firearm or other methods to take their own life, Anestis noted.\n\"It is clear that firearm access increases risk of suicide death overall, but little is known about what differentiates firearm owners who die by suicide using a firearm from those who choose another method despite having firearm access,\" he explained.\nShotguns, which tend to be used mainly for recreational purposes like hunting, are often stored in hunting lodges or with locking devices, Anestis said. That makes them less accessible than handguns, which are often bought for protection and may be stored loaded and easily accessible.\n\"It also may simply be that any firearm in the home bestows risk of use as a suicide method, but that when multiple types of firearms are owned, an individual is likely to default to handguns due to logistical issues or ease of access,\" he suggested.\nThe findings may help improve knowledge about which people at risk for suicide are most likely to use firearms, which could lead to more effective interventions, Anestis added.\nThe U.S. National Institute of Mental Health has more on suicide prevention.\nSOURCE: Rutgers University, news release, Feb. 11, 2021"}

+{"text": "***MA - ACTION ALERT***\nRaw Milk Hearing in Framingham, MA, This Wednesday, December 16\nDear Raw Milk Fans,\nWE NEED YOU NOW!\nThere will be a hearing this Wednesday night, December 16, at 7PM, that will determine whether or not Doug Stephan is granted a license to sell raw milk from his farm in Framingham, Massachusetts, a town of 70,000 or so people 20 miles west of Boston.\nThe meeting will be in the Blumer Room in the Town Hall, 150 Concord St, Framingham, MA. Click here for a map and directions. There's a train that leaves South Station, Boston at 6:15PM and arrives in Framingham at 6:52PM; the town hall is a few minutes' walk from the train station. This sounds like a good option. Bring a book for the train ride. Might I suggest The Raw Milk Revolution, by David E. Gumpert?\nTHE MORE PEOPLE SHOW UP AT THIS HEARING TO SUPPORT DOUG, THE BETTER HIS CHANCES.\nPersonally, I would be thrilled to have a 30-cow raw milk dairy within 20 minutes of my house in Cambridge. The closest one right now is 40 minutes away (Oake Knoll Ayrshires in Foxoro), and is quite small\u201410 cows last I herd (sic). Stephan's farm would only be the 26th raw milk dairy in Massachusetts, a bellwether state on many issues.\nSO IF YOU ARE AVAILABLE WEDNESDAY NIGHT, PLEASE COME TO THE MEETING!\nSPREAD THE WORD!\nClick here for the meeting agenda. There will be stuff going on at the meeting besides the raw milk hearing\u2014but I can guarantee that the raw milk part will be the highlight!\nSome additional background:\nMy understanding is that this is the first time anyone in Framingham has applied to the city Board of Health for such a license. As such, precedent will be set. There are three possible outcomes: the board could grant the license; the board could grant the license, but with town-specific requirements that are tougher than the state requirements; or the board could deny the license. This hearing is a very important one in Massachusetts, and could point the way for future such hearings.\nDoug will make the case that his dairy farm cannot survive selling milk for pasteurization. In the past year and a half, the price paid to him by dairy corporations has dropped from $28 or $29 for a hundredweight, to $12 or $13 for a hundredweight. It costs him $24 per hundredweight to produce the milk.\nHere are some articles on the issue:\nThe outcome of this case will have bearing on all of our ability to get raw milk, and to get the food we want, the way we want it, not just in Massachusetts, but around the US. Now is the time to act."}

Experts believe the term has been in constant use since the times that the Romans built the aqueducts. We wonder if there has always been confusion over its meaning in the hundreds of years since.\nHere\u2019s another way to break it down. Think of the word \u201cpotable\u201d as an assurance that the water is safe. On the other hand, consider \u201cnon-potable\u201d to be a warning \u2013 it may as well have a red flag attached to the sign. If a faucet, fountain, spigot, or hose is labeled simply as \u201cwater,\u201d that leaves some doubt.\nYou can treat the water with a few drops of chlorine bleach or iodine. Others prefer to use calcium hypochlorite in a granular form. In addition, a few different companies produce water purification tablets to disinfect non-potable water.\nHeating water to the boiling point of 212 degrees Fahrenheit is one of the most common ways of removing potentially harmful contaminants. It\u2019s effective and doesn\u2019t require any additional chemicals.

+{"text": "Researchers presented their findings on pre-seroconversion window in patients with acute HCV infection at the Conference on Retrovirus and Opportunistic Infections in Seattle, Washington.\nResearchers from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases used various assay algorithms in the aims of better understanding the pre-seroconversion window in patients with acute hepatitis C (HCV) infection.\nPre-seroconversion window is the amount of time when a patient is virologically positive but IgG antibody (Ab) negative, this depends on the testing method used. The research team\u2019s findings were presented at the Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI 2017) in Seattle, Washington.\nIndividuals tend to develop acute HCV between 2 weeks to 6 months after viremia. Acute HCV infection does not always lead to chronic HCV; however, since acute infection is mostly asymptomatic and rarely diagnosed, many individuals go on to develop chronic HCV. In those who do present with symptoms, acute HCV can cause jaundice, dark urine, white stool, nausea, and upper abdomen pain for anywhere between 2 and 12 weeks.\nThe researchers pulled data from studies on commercially available HCV seroconversion panels. They evaluated primary viral infection and subsequent IgG Ab seroconversion. Laboratory results were gathered from 82 repeat donors, making up 754 visits. Thirty-nine of them were excluded\u201423 were HCV RNA positive at baseline, 12 remained HCV negative during the study period, and four whose interval to estimate the initial infection date more than 30 days.\nThe 43 donors who remained had acute HCV infection with a median of four days in between clinic visits.\nDate of detectable infection was estimated using HCV RNA positivity (nucleic acid testing (NAT) by any assay) and Murex HCV Ag/Ab Combo Assay. Date of detectable seroconversion was estimated using the Architect Anti-HCV Assay, Ortho HCV Version 3.0 ELISA, and Murex 4.0 ELISA.\n\u201cThe average time spent in the RNA +/Ab- stage prior to positivity by the Murex HCV Ag/Ab Combo assay was estimated to be 18 days and 25 days from the binomial regression models fitted with logit-cubic link function and log-log link function, respectively,\u201d the researchers explained.\nThe team estimated the mean duration of recent infection (MDRI) prior to seroconversion with six different testing algorithms. The results showed that MDRI point estimates with the NAT (considered the gold standard) ranged from 29 to 41 days. The Murex HCV Ag/Ab Combo assay showed 25 to 45 days.\nThe Architect Anti-HCV assay and Murex 4.0 ELISA had equivalent MDRI point estimates and 95% confidence intervals\u201440 to 45 days\u2014for patients tested with all assays, except Ortho. NAT and Murex HCV Ag/Ab Combo assay also had similar MDRI estimates.\n\u201cOur estimates regarding the pre-seroconversion window period of acute HCV infection are in agreement with the published literature (~45 days), including previous estimates calculated among people who inject drugs,\u201d the team confirmed.\nThe assays had fairly consisted of MDRI point estimates. The Ag/Ab assay may be a more cost-effective option than NAT for the HCV seronegative populations. Confidence intervals were also similar, but more investigation is needed due to some inconsistency, the researchers said.\nAlthough up to 80% of acute HCV infections develop into chronic cases, concentrating on the short-term infections is important in order to reach the World Health Organization\u2019s goal of 90% reduction in HCV cases by 2030."}
+{"text": "Renewable energy resources, such as wind, are available worldwide. Locating areas with high and continual wind sources are crucial in pre-planning of wind farms. Vast offshore areas are characterized with higher and more reliable wind resources in comparison with continental areas. However, offshore wind energy production is in a quite preliminary phase. Elaborating the potential productivity of wind farms over such areas is challenging due to sparse in situ observations. Mediterranean basin is not an exception. The overall aim of this thesis is to perform analysis in model efficiency in estimation of wind energy from regional to local scale.\nFirst, we are proposing numerical simulations of near-surface wind fields from regional climate models (RCMs) in order to obtain and fill the gaps in observations over the Mediterranean basin. Four simulations produced with two regional climate models are examined. Remote sensing observations (QuikSCAT satellite) are used to assess the skill of the simulated fields. A technique in estimation the potential energy from the wind fields over the region is introduced locating the three potentially interesting sub-regions for wind farms.\nThen, we use local-scale model (large-eddy simulation) with implemented parameterization of wind turbine in order to simulate real case flow in theoretical wind farm. Information reported with regional climate model would be used to create inflow conditions for the selected sub-region of the Mediterranean Sea for simulating theoretical offshore wind farm.\nFinally, we would compare the estimation of wind power potential obtained by regional climate model and power production of theoretical wind farm obtained with large-eddy simulations for chosen sub-region. Within this multi-scale approach, we would present different numerical computational efficiency in application of wind energy and justification in usage of both regional and local scale models. The novelty of this multi-model methodological approach could be considered in offering significant information for wind industry."}

Some levelling and manipulation of the site was required to achieve a cohesive integration between the house and landscape which resulted in a double storey house to the front of the site and a single storey extension to the rear.\nLinked by a corridor, the extension presents as a single-storey pavilion situated within a landscaped garden.

In 2018, while taking a walk through Jenkintown PA, she came across a beautiful space with a For Rent sign and knew that this was the perfect space for the brick and mortar version of the truck. After doing a lot of research and discovering that Jenkintown did not have a coffee shop or ice cream shop, she and her husband secured the space and the White Horse Coffee & Creamery cafe was born.\nIn March 2021, Jean started roasting her own coffee and by September had grown so much that White Horse further expanded to an additional location housing a USDA organic roaster and sustainable marketplace.

+{"text": "A weighty issue \u2013 is obesity a disability?\nCan an employer be held liable for discriminating against an employee on grounds of their weight? Ian Machray looks at a recent decision of the Employment Appeal Tribunal.\nThere is no specific law against \u201cweight discrimination\u201d, but the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) recently considered the extent to which an obese employee could qualify as disabled. If an obese employee is considered disabled they would qualify for protection from discrimination, harassment, victimisation and the employer would have to consider reasonable adjustments to help ensure the employee is not at a disadvantage in the workplace.\nThe EAT was clear that weight by itself could not be a disability, but it could lead to conditions that might qualify the employee for protection. Possible examples could include a long-term obese employee who suffers from mobility or breathing difficulties which has a substantial impact on their day-to-day activities. In this case, the employee suffered from many conditions \u2013 asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure, chronic fatigue syndrome, bowel and stomach problems, anxiety and depression, sacro-iliac joint pains among others \u2013 which resulted in symptoms such as shortness of breath, constant fatigue, poor concentration and memory together with pain in many areas of his body.\nThe key is to focus on the impairment(s) from which the employee suffers and not the cause of the condition(s). Practically speaking, from the employee\u2019s perspective, if the cause of their condition has not been diagnosed it is often harder for them to provide appropriate medical evidence but employers should not be tempted to assume that this means the employee is not disabled. The same principle of focusing on the impairment not the cause is illustrated when dealing with alcohol dependency, where the condition itself is expressly excluded from protection, but accompanying conditions, such as liver disease or depression, can mean that the employee is disabled.\nThe case serves as a useful reminder to employers that the definition of disability under employment law is wider than often expected. Any employee who suffers from a physical or mental impairment, which has a substantial and long-term effect on their ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities, will qualify as disabled.\nA final point to consider about obese employees is potential indirect sex discrimination as there are more obese women than men in the UK. So employers should ensure that any workplace rules which have a greater impact on obese employees can be justified, for example, on health and safety grounds."}

+{"text": "As a leader in the gas grill segment, it\u2019s important for Weber to keep improving the functionality of gas grills. Last week CookOut News reported on a dual-burner assembly that Weber developed and now there\u2019s another patent to improve gas grills. A patent has been released showing Weber has developed an L-shaped smoker box with an attached water pan to increase smoke times.\nA smoker box is a simple way to add more smoke to your food when grilling. Traditionally rectangular in shape, they are filled with wood chunks or pellets that smolder inside of the box to create smoke. They are most often used with gas grills but can be used in other applications such as pellet grills or even electric grills.\nWhile the basic rectangular design works well, and is even integrated in some gas grills, Weber thinks there may be advantages of an L-shaped design.\nAs can be seen in the above diagram from Weber\u2019s patent the smoker box is placed across the grease deflector bars in a gas grill. It\u2019s positioned so that the left side of the smoker box and water pan are resting on a deflector bar (labeled 2224) without a burner beneath it. The right side of the smoker box rests on a deflector bar (labeled 2222) above a burner (labeled 2214), creating zones within smoker box.\nSmoker Box Zones\nThe placement shown above makes it so there are 3 zones within the smoker box. The zones are named as follows in the patent.\n- Ignition zone \u2013 labeled 1308\n- Transition zone \u2013 labeled 1310\n- End zone \u2013 labeled 1312\nWhat\u2019s advantageous of the zoned setup is it slows the burn rate within the smoker box, allowing for longer smoke times. The ignition zone is directly over a burner, so the smolder starts there first, then slowly follows along the L shape. It eventually reaches the end zone, once all of the content of the smoker box are done burning.\nThe water pan (labeled 1400) that\u2019s attached the smoker box design in the figure shown above is detachable to make it easier to fill. People often use water pans to increase the moisture content within the grill, in the hopes of making their food juicier. The patent alleges that the increased moisture content enables smoke to better adhere to food being cooked.\nThis is a nice design because it tucks the water pan away, under the grill grates. Often when a water pan is used in smoking it takes up cooking space because it\u2019s just set on the grill grates.\nIf the L-shaped smoker box design works as the patent claims, it\u2019s a great way to increase smoke times in a gas grill. The attached water pan is an elegant solution to free up more grill space. As with all patents, we don\u2019t know if this will ever make it to market. We hope that it does though."}

However, Doyle gives readers the flavor of late-Victorian London when Holmes and Watson venture outside to examine Wilson\u2019s pawnshop and its surroundings. We catch glimpses of the bustling commercial district, gas-lit evening streets, and the Underground (subway). The most fully developed setting is the bank vault, where increasing detail draws out the story\u2019s climax and increases suspense."}

Their writings vary widely in theme, setting, and voice; nevertheless these writers share a distinct tradition that is in part defined by their isolation due to both geography and gender and is wholly different from their male counterparts'.\nThe survey begins with pioneer diarists who chronicled their experiences on the Texas frontier, and it ends with the postmodernists and a glimpse of the new directions in which Texas' women writers are now heading. In between are critical-biographical portraits of the lives and careers of individual writers both major and minor: from novelists, dramatists, and poets, to writers of short stories, children's books, and creative nonfiction. The survey covers the developmental history of major genres in the region and chronologically reviews each generation and the particular challenges of time and place that shaped their work. The careers of African American and Tejana writers are also examined as part of newly emerging literary traditions.\nEdited by Lou Halsell Rodenberger and Sylvia Ann Grider, this volume brings together a host of contributors comprising some of the region's most prominent scholar-writers. The editors also list primary and important secondary material in perhaps the most comprehensive bibliography ever devoted to Texas women's literature.

+{"text": "5 events that should prompt a review of your estate plan in Pennsylvania\n10/25/2016 | Articles & Alerts\nAccording to a recent report from CBNC, more than half of the people in the United States will pass away without having a will in place. A will is one of the most basic components of estate planning, though many people in Pennsylvania fail to take the steps to put one together.\nEven those who have a will, trust or other document in place may not realize how important it is too keep these items updated. Here are five times that people should revisit their end-of-life plans:\n1. Marriage and divorce\nOne of the most common reasons people rethink their estate plans is because they get married or get divorced. For many people, a spouse is often the key beneficiary to insurance plans, or the spouse co-owns properties and accounts. As Consumer Reports points out, accounts that list beneficiaries will be distributed to those people regardless of what a will states. Therefore, not only does a trust or will need to be updated following a marriage or divorce, but all accounts should be as well.\n2. Births and deaths\nWhen someone significant passes away, one item to address after the mourning period is to update the estate plan to remove the name of that person. This may sound cold, but remembering to do so can eliminate heartache and confusion down the road.\nThe same goes for when there is a new life brought into the family, such as a child or grandchild. The new family member may need to be added in to inheritance.\n3. New laws\nThere are state and federal laws that govern the way certain estate planning items are calculated. For example, as the Ohio Department of Taxation points out, there is no longer a state estate tax for people who pass away. There is still a federal estate tax, however, that could apply. Keeping an eye on these and other laws is key for people whose assets may be affected.\n4. Changes to assets\nIt is quite possible that someone\u2019s estate plan today could look drastically different even just five years from now, based solely on the property listed in the plan. Homes are purchased and sold, cars come and go. Someone may take up a new hobby collecting valuable art, or a certain stock account could greatly decrease in value. Anytime there is a significant change or an acquisition or a sale of key property, experts advise revisiting the plan.\n5. The end of the year\nThen end of the calendar year is a time for people to make resolutions and set goals. This is also a good time to review the estate plan to ensure no major changes are necessary. Setting an annual time to review or simply reviewing the plan every other year is a good reminder in case someone misses the chance to do so after a major life event.\nBy and large, an estate plan is typically only effective when it is accurate and up to date. Anyone with questions about this issue should speak to an estate planning attorney in Ohio."}

+{"text": "Kazuki Takahashi, the original creator of the Yu-Gi-Oh manga, was found adrift at sea in July 2022. New reports have revealed that this unfortunate event happened while trying to aid a US Army Officer who rescued 3 people from a riptide.\nThe military-focused publication \u201cStar and Stripes\u201d recently posted an article congratulating Major Robert Bourgeau for his actions in saving 3 lives on June 2022. Maj. Bourgeau was a diving instructor, who noticed three people including a mother and her 11-year-old daughter caught in a riptide and ran into the water to help. He has been recognized with the Soldier\u2019s Medal recognizing his heroism in successfully rescuing these people, and it can\u2019t be understated the bravery of the US Officer in these actions.\nUnfortunately, according to onlookers including Maj. Bourgeau\u2019s diving students, the 60-year-old mangaka Kazuki Takahashi was also seen running into the water trying to help and wasn\u2019t able to escape the current. He was swept to sea, and his body was later recovered by the Japanese Coast Guard. He lost his life trying to help save others in the attempt to aid Maj. Bourgeau.\nThe staff at YGOrganization would once again like to pass on our respects to the family of Takahashi and hope they can find some consolation in these facts coming to light. I can only hope the community remembers this selfless bravery of both Maj. Bourgeau and the sadly deceased Kazuki Takahashi in the years to come.\nThis article uses information from the following article by Matthew M. Burke and Keishi Koja, and I would personally recommend reading it for more information on the subject."}
+{"text": ".Com Strategies Podcast where you will learn key insights into valuing, marketing, brokering and selling your domain names.\nIn today\u2019s episode I talk about what is a domain buy service.\nPOINT #1: What is Domain Buy Service?\n- Although this seams like a basic question to avid domain investors, this is the question that kicks off most domain acquisitions: \u201c How do I get that domain name?\u201d\n- Domain investors already understand the concept of a domain buy service or domain acquisition, but the people who need to know are the startups and other brands who do not own their exact match domain name.\n- This needs to be a question you ask yourself every time you as an investor go after a domain name, or you as a startup out to acquire your perfect domain for the first time.\nPOINT #2: First Decision: Your domain name\n- The first thing you need to figure out is what domain you want and who has it. You have to do this because every different type of owner has a different approach to acquiring the domain.\n- When you do start trying to decide your domain, give yourself a few options; preferable your exact match domain and one or two other choices. If one option is not available, then you can try to go after the other ones and not be in the same position as before\nPoint #3: Domain Brokers and Domain Buy Service\n- If you don\u2019t know how to deal with the different types of owners, don\u2019t want them to raise the price on you because they see that you might have a lot of funding, or just plain and simply don\u2019t want to be told no, then you want to get a professional domain broker to help you get your domain name.\n- This is what domain brokers do. Chris said that 40% of what Media Options does is domain buy services, or domain acquisition.\nQUESTION OF THE DAY:\nDo you know what domain you want? Do you know who owns it?\nQUOTE OF THE DAY:\n\u201c The concept of Pain and Pleasure is the essence of marketing and selling anything, especially a domain name.\u201d"}

+{"text": "F. David Peat: Infinite Potential\nThe Life and Times of David Bohm\nThis is the biography of David Bohm, written by his friend and fellow physicist F. David Peat. It is a story of an extraordinary scientist, original thinker, who made influential contributions to physics, philosophy, consciousness, psychology, language, and education.\nPeat describes how David Bohm came to believe that the traditional interpretation of quantum mechanics--with its barriers of uncertainty--was incomplete. In a bold step that turned quantum mechanics on its head, he introduced the \"implicate order\" which created a storm of controversy, yet may well have opened the door to a much deeper theory of the nature of reality.\nIn the book, the general reader will obtain the first clear, non-mathematical explanation of Bohm's brilliant theory, which gave new hope of finding the elusive \"hidden variables\" theory, the missing piece of the quantum mechanics puzzle for which Albert Einstein had spent decades searching. As Peat shows, Einstein had such high regard for Bohm and his work that he made Bohm his close collaborator and friend."}

Leaving aside the fact that this verdict seems to be making an example of and taking a stand against the activities of Actionism, we do not wish to involve ourselves in the discussion about the appropriateness of this result. We also know very little about M\u00fchl\u2019s prison conditions. All the same, it seems that, in prison, it is possible for M\u00fchl to continue his artistic work. The imprisonment is not leading to a state of exception; the production is going on. For us M\u00fchl has created a graphic, showing Duchamp\u2019s pissoir filled with brown content as well as a suggested drain pipe. Thus M\u00fchl signalises that neither improvement nor remorse can be expected from him. What is banned by society and displaced aside is still his main focus. M\u00fchl seems to recall that Duchamp\u2019s Urinal had a specific function, which Duchamp himself then eliminated and which is being brought up again by M\u00fchl. M\u00fchl\u2019s stay in prison does lead to the fact though, that his transgressions now remain aesthetic ones. In his Urinal work at least, there are no indications of any form of communal life and the power relationships inherent to the latter. Therefore the thesis of M\u00fchl\u2019s incorrigibility is not quite correct: He now only seeks aesthetic transgression and stays predictable because of that.Just like a classical artist, struggling with tradition, he jumps into the discussion on Duchamp\u2019s legacy: Was it the Ready-made or institutional critique that became possible through Duchamp?

The case has remained unresolved for years, but now the fate of the defendant hangs in the balance.\nTeresa Black went missing in 2002, leaving her family and friends devastated and desperate for answers. For years, her disappearance remained a mystery until new evidence emerged in 2018, leading authorities to the defendant in this trial. The defendant is accused of the heinous crime of kidnapping and murdering Black.\nDuring the trial, the prosecution presented a compelling case against the defendant, supported by testimonies from witnesses, forensic evidence, and expert analysis. The defense, however, has argued that the evidence is circumstantial and lacks definitive proof of the defendant\u2019s guilt. The jury now holds the responsibility of carefully weighing this evidence and reaching a verdict.\nDeliberation in a case of this nature can be a complex process. Jurors must examine the credibility and reliability of the evidence presented, consider varying interpretations, and ultimately determine whether the prosecution has proven the defendant\u2019s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

+{"text": "March 29, 2017\nThere are some hard teachings in the Bible when it comes to following Christ. Here\u2019s one of the hardest:\nAnd everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life. (Matthew 19:29)\nThat\u2019s a lot of people and stuff to just leave. As I looked up the parallel passages in Mark 10:29-30 and Luke 18:29-30, the picture broadens to also sacrificing land, property and wife. That sounds even worse! When I read these verses last week (and I\u2019ve read them often), I was flummoxed. Can this really be? I know God is not asking any of us to break our marriage covenant. He expects us to keep that. God is not asking me to be an irresponsible parent. He gave me three wonderful children to raise and love all my life. What is he really asking of us as followers of Christ?\nOn further study of the context in Matthew 19:16-30, I noticed the disciples\u2019 response. They too had questions. When Jesus said, \u201cIt\u2019s easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God,\u201d scripture says the disciples were astonished. \u201cWho then can be saved?\u201d they asked. And Jesus says, \u201cWith man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.\u201d Peter\u2019s reply to that? \u201cWe have left everything to follow you!\u201d I think he was also flummoxed! Which leads to Jesus\u2019s teaching above. So it seems these words of Jesus were not meant to discourage his followers, but encourage those who had already made the decision to put him first.\nJesus was encouraging his disciples that their decision to put their identity in him, above identity in family, was a good decision. Jesus was encouraging his disciples that putting their security in him, above property and possessions, was a good decision. He didn\u2019t ask them to be irresponsible but to be responsibly committed to him, because with God all things are possible.\nAdmittedly, the first ones I think of who are living this out are our global partners. They have physically left family and property to live out Christ in a different context. Giles and Alison, Van and Jane, Paul and Stacey, Bruce and Alice, Bruce E and Cindy, Dawn, Zach and Haley, Jeremiah, John and Ruth \u2013 all of them felt the call of God to be responsibly committed to him in this way. It was a big ask from Christ, \u201cfor his sake\u201d, and this is how they responded. Two others from our church are preparing to do the same.\nBut this is not just a scripture passage for global workers. We all are required to work this one out. What does it mean to be responsibly committed to Christ? What does it mean for each of us to leave people and possessions for his sake? We all need to settle that question as followers of Christ. It\u2019s a big ask from Christ to each of his flummoxed disciples today. It will look different for each of us.\nTil next week,"}

+{"text": "In this episode of the Recording Academy x EBONY \u201cBlack Music Collective Podcast, music industry change agent Jeff Harleston speaks to the power of agility and flexibility. As the General Counsel and Executive Vice President of Business & Legal Affairs for Universal Music Group, Harleston has worked to cultivate and expand initiatives in support of marginalized communities. Here's what we learned from his podcast session:\nNever Be Afraid to Pivot\nWhen Harleston envisioned his career in law, he always imagined himself in a courtroom. He had aspirations of moving from federal prosecutor to judge. However, that all changed one day when he received an opportunity from a law school classmate to work at MCA Records. \"Me? Come on, I'm a prosecutor. Maybe, I'll be a judge one day,\" Harleston recalled thinking to himself. Still, he sent his resume, and his willingness to be flexible rewarded him by taking him down a path that he'd never imagined for himself. This same ability to pivot would also serve him when the music industry shifted dramatically as a result of Napster and other music-sharing platforms.\nThere Are Many Avenues to Facilitate Change\nHarleston admits that what inspired him to pursue law was his desire to bring about change. He thought that an impactful way to do so would be by being in the courtroom. However, his professional journey quickly revealed that there is more than one road to bringing about change.\n\"I wanted to be involved in something that could help bring about change. I thought, 'Okay, law does that.' I thought that law meant being in the courtroom. Law didn't mean a board room,\" Harleston recalled.\nMentorship is Essential\nHarleston admits that one of the most influential aspects of his career was mentorship. Several Black executives in the industry, such as the late Andre Harell, were adamant about reaching back and investing in those who followed in their footsteps. \"That was wildly instrumental in my growth and development, as was and is for so many people in this business,\" Harleston recalled.\nCatch more of Harleston's gems in the podcast below."}

+{"text": "If your estate is large enough to pay estate taxes when you die, you may need some additional planning.\nOne way to do this is with a Grantor Retained Annuity Trust (GRAT) or Grantor Retained Unitrust (GRUT). These have much in common with the qualified personal residence trust. The main difference is that a GRAT or GRUT lets you transfer any asset (not just your home) out of your taxable estate. And, with a GRAT or GRUT, you receive an income, instead of continuing to live in your home, for a set number of years.\nWhen you set up a GRAT or GRUT, you transfer an income-producing asset (like a family business, stocks or real estate) into an irrevocable trust for a set number of years. During this time, the trust pays you an income.\nIf the income you receive is a set dollar amount and does not fluctuate each year, the trust is a GRAT (Grantor Retained Annuity Trust). If the income is a percentage of the trust assets and the amount of income you receive fluctuates each year, the trust is a GRUT (Grantor Retained Unitrust).\nAt the end of the trust term, the asset will be owned by the beneficiaries of the trust (usually your children) and will not be included in your estate when you die. However, depending on the duration of the trust, if you die before the trust term is over, some or all of the asset may be taxed as part of your estate.\nLike the qualified personal residence trust, the beneficiaries will not receive the asset until sometime in the future (when the trust term is over). So the value of the gift you are making (transferring the asset to the trust is considered a gift) is reduced. This uses less of your federal gift and estate tax exemption than if you had kept the asset (and any future appreciation) in your estate.\nA GRAT or GRUT can be a great way to save estate taxes by transferring an asset (especially a business) and any future appreciation, to your children at a discounted value, especially if you want (or need) the income.\nThe Law Offices of Ronald R.

Long before mortals had ever set foot on the land\u2019s frigid tundra, she had lived countless lifetimes and died as many deaths.

She guarded their lands with pride as they prospered, but such unity could not last forever. The great tribe fractured into three, and after that upheaval, Anivia watched the people of the Freljord become embroiled in battle. As she strove to calm the turmoil tearing her home apart, Anivia began to sense a greater threat: an ancient evil growing deep within the earth. To her horror, she felt the pure magic of the ice itself become blackened and corrupt. Like blood in water, darkness crept into the Freljord. With her destiny so tied to the power of the land, Anivia knew if such evil took root in her home, that same darkness would find its way into her heart.

+{"text": "Why are Variegated Monstera adansonii so expensive but worth it?\nVariegated Monstera adansonii is a rare and highly sought-after houseplant that has captured the hearts of plant enthusiasts worldwide. Its unique variegation, a characteristic that results from a genetic mutation, makes it stand out from other Monstera species. Due to its rarity, the plant commands a high price, which has left many plant enthusiasts wondering whether it is worth the investment. In this post, we will explore why Variegated Monstera adansonii is so expensive but worth it\nUnique and RareOne reason why Variegated Monstera adansonii is so expensive is that it is unique and rare. The plant's variegation is a result of a genetic mutation, which means that it is not easy to propagate. Variegated Monstera adansonii plants are produced by tissue culture or by propagating the plant's stem cuttings. Tissue culture is an expensive and time-consuming process that requires specialized knowledge, skills, and equipment. This means that the limited supply of Variegated Monstera adansonii plants cannot meet the high demand, making the plant expensive\nAesthetic AppealAnother reason why Variegated Monstera adansonii is worth the investment is its aesthetic appeal. The plant's unique variegation creates a striking contrast between the white and green colors of the leaves, which adds a touch of elegance to any space. The plant's trailing vines also make it an excellent choice for hanging baskets or as a climber. Variegated Monstera adansonii's beauty and uniqueness make it a statement piece for any indoor plant collection\nLongevityVariegated Monstera adansonii is a hardy plant that can live for several years with proper care. This makes it a worthwhile investment as it offers long-term enjoyment and satisfaction. The plant is relatively easy to care for and can thrive in a range of conditions, making it an excellent choice for novice plant enthusiasts.\nIn conclusion, Variegated Monstera adansonii is a rare and unique houseplant that commands a high price due to its limited supply and high demand. However, its aesthetic appeal, longevity, and ease of care make it worth the investment for any plant enthusiast looking to add a statement piece to their indoor plant collection. If you're considering adding a Variegated Monstera adansonii to your plant collection, be prepared to invest in its beauty and enjoy its elegance for many years to come."}

A plausible explanation is resource competition between siblings in larger families, as suggested by the resource dilution hypothesis.\nObjective: This study contributes to our understanding of these mechanisms by investigating the association between sibship size and height before, during, and after the fertility decline to test predictions based on the resource dilution hypothesis.\nMethods: The investigation is conducted using information from universal conscript inspections linked to a longitudinal demographic database. Regression analyses estimate a model derived from the resource dilution explanation and analyze the association between sibship size and height among men born in 1821-1950 in southern Sweden.\nResults: The results show that the association between sibship size and height was negative from the mid-nineteenth century until the mid-twentieth century. There is no association in the early nineteenth century. The strength of the association is gradually weakened over time for men born from the 1840s until the 1940s. It is most consistent among men born from 1881-1921, corresponding closely to the time for the fertility decline in the area. The association is not a result of confounding by observable demographic or socioeconomic differences between families.\nConclusions: The results are in line with resource dilution being an important explanation for the negative association between sibship size and height. Resource dilution in larger families still seems to be dependent on the societal and historical context.\nMost recent similar articles in Demographic Research\nCited References: 80\nDownload to Citation Manager"}

+{"text": "I love poetry magnets, those silly little tiles with words on them that end up scattered across your refrigerator door. You kids play with 'em and eventually start to make strange, esoteric-sounding phrases that might be poems. So I was pleased to see that PlusGood, one of my favorite design houses, had written TwitterMagnets, a lovely little toy that simulates those wonderful literary devices. Unfortunately, it lacks a few things: it doesn't resize at all, it's Flash (ugh!), and it allocates a portion of the screen to \"the poetry region.\"\nBut magnetic poetry doesn't have allocated portions of your refrigerator. A magnetic poem is just a collection of tiles assembled in a deliberate and meaningful way. So I decide to write my own equivalent.\nIt resizes when you resize (proportionally, too!), it's not Flash, it still allows you to send your poem as a Tweet (so long as it'll fit), and it detects a poem by the deliberate placement of words(i.e. you moved them) into meaningful patterns (i.e. they're touching).\nThere's a lot of fun stuff in the code: HTML5 Audio, the separate axis theorem (used to determine collisions in game mechanics, here used to create the \"is-a\" poem graph), a desperate (and somewhat unsuccessful) attempt to marry some functional and OO designs, a ton of Coffeescript (I love Coffeescript, gods, please don't ever ask me to write straight JS again), a little application of the \"write-only DOM\" theory, and a nifty chunk of proportionality that lets the zoom feature work its magic. I wrote this for fun, and it is fun.\nBug reports, patches, and the like, are very welcome, as always.\nAs usual, the HTML5 Magnets source code is available at GitHub. Enjoy!"}

In doing so, he has formulated a vital new paradigm regarding chronology, people and events in the first century AD. But the tragedy is that this paradigm, as convincing as it is, has a seemingly impregnable structure of universal belief and faith to assail."}

We provide advocacy for threatened heritage structures, and run successful events, tours and talks for like-minded people who appreciate all our wonderful heritage.\nOtago, and in particular Dunedin, has more heritage structures still standing than any other region in New Zealand, so it makes sense that there is an outlet for all those who share our passion.\nThe Trust has a strong membership and programme of heritage events, both for public and exclusively for Trust members, including the \u014ctepoti Dunedin Heritage Festival which we co-run every two years.\nThe Southern Heritage Trust was set up in December 2002 and incorporated as a Charitable Trust in May 2003. It came about partly as a result of the abolition of the Otago committee of the then Historic Places Trust (now Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga), an organisation we continue to maintain strong links with. In collaboration with others, the Trust has contributed towards a range of heritage issues and projects for the past 20 years.\nWe are also fortunate have a facility in the historic Sexton\u2019s Cottage at Dunedin\u2019s Northern Cemetery. This is by arrangement with the Dunedin City Council, and in return we have developed an information centre, themed walking trails and The Northern Cemetery website where you can browse and search the cemetery's burial records."}

The meeting also provided a platform for people to ask questions on matters that affect them, strengthening the capacity of citizens to advance government accountability at the local government level.\nThe meeting had in attendance youths from ward 3 in Ondo East L.G.A. The issues discussed include Continuous Voters\u2019 Registration Exercise, youth empowerment, and the high rate of poverty prevalence in the local government due to unemployment.\nThe youth lamented being marginalized from the Ondo State scholarship/bursary whereas they benefit maximally from it in the previous administration. The youth decried the high rate of poverty in their community due to the high cost of living and unemployment. Most of their girls are into prostitution for them to make ends meet.\nIn conclusion, the community journalist encouraged the youth to take advantage of the CVR ward devolution to register for their PVC at their respective wards so as to enable them to partake in the next election and vote for the right choice that will represent their interest well. He also encouraged them to engage with their representative and have information about developmental projects initiated in their local government by the federal, state, and local governments, this will help in promoting accountability, transparency, and honesty in governance. The youth resolved to register and collect their PVC for them to be able to vote out the bad representation they are experiencing now.\nCritical Issues Raised During the Meeting\n- Lack of good roads.\n- Lack of potable water.\n- Poor electricity supply.\n- The citizens agreed to continue to use the various opportunities available to engage the local government and councilors to express their grievances to the government.\nLessons for Future Engagements\n- Working more with community institutions such as churches, mosques, traditional leaders, and other opinion groups will help in providing lasting solutions to national issues.\nBelow are pictorial representations of the participants."}

Following this same track in 1805, Napoleon set this way to be built as a carriageable way crossing the Alps in order to allow for troops and arms to flow across the Sempione Mountain Pass.

As the University of Lethbridge Statement of Philosophy declares, someone with a liberal education has developed \u201can attitude that enables the free and critical exploration of ideas. A liberally educated person is someone who is not limited by tradition, orthodoxy or authority. They are free and able to think for themselves\u2014critically.\"\nAs such, liberally educated people can contribute to society with their free-thinking ability to ask questions based on unique information linkages, evaluate answers with a critical eye to various possible outcomes, and add to the decisions made for the benefit of the greater good.\nThis is indeed not to say that someone who has not graduated from a post-secondary institution cannot, or will not, succeed. There are a multitude of examples of highly successful business people\u2014even political leaders\u2014who were university or college drop-outs.\nWhat matters is their exposure to different ideas and philosophies, and their openness to incorporate this knowledge into their decision making to create innovative new solutions to problems. This kind of exposure is precisely what students receive throughout their post-secondary and graduate studies at the University of Lethbridge.\nLiberal education is about the \u2018Big Picture.\u2019 At the U of L, it means breadth. You study in your primary area of interest, and you also learn about various other disciplines to become a well-rounded and well-educated person.\nStudents who participate in liberal education courses will develop:\n- Strong critical thinking skills\n- Strong oral and written communication skills\n- The ability to evaluate and use information effectively\n- The ability to work with quantitative ideas and mathematical relations\n- Skills in integrative thinking\nLiberate your mind!

Alvare\nWritten: December 1, 2014\nHistorically, the U.S. Supreme Court has consistently highlighted the importance of procreation in its consideration of marriage in constitutional cases. Recently, however, litigants seeking same-sex marriage and judicial decisions sympathetic to their arguments have ignored the language and holdings of this long-standing body of law. Instead, they have focused nearly entirely upon adults\u2019 interests in state marriage recognition. To the extent children are mentioned, it is for the purpose of speculating that children living within same-sex marriage households might indirectly benefit from recognition of adults\u2019 rights to same-sex marriage.\nThis Article discusses the importance of states\u2019 interests in procreation and child rearing and the Supreme Court\u2019s constant recognition of those interests. Ultimately, this Article argues that judicial decisions recognizing same-sex marriage have marginalized, or \u201creconceived,\u201d the role of children in marriage, in several important ways, all to the marked disadvantage of children.\n(Read more here)"}

+{"text": "How are your memories of Goetic invocation? After days, weeks, months or even years of preparation, was it all worth it? Were you exhilarated? Were you excited, bored, terrified? Scared witless?\nDid you give up after your first attempt?The stories of Goetic invocation are not for the faint-hearted, so even if you are successful in invoking spirits, would you do it again?\nAsk any sportsman, and they will tell you that the key is repeatability; the ability to kick the ball over the bar, or into the net, the power to run under 10 seconds in the 100 metres, the skill to leap over the bar in the high jump. Singers have to hold high notes, or sing for long periods of time. The ability to sustain technique and be consistent is something that magicians are not as good as they could be. It does not help that Goetic invocation can be traumatic \u2013 assuming something happens, and for the most part nothing does. What carrot does the magician have in these occasions? Very little.\nHealth problems from Goetic Invocation\nThose who are accomplished with Goetic invocation are on record as saying that the involvement has aged them. Who would be daft enough to continue if that was the case? Having invoked the spirit, what guarantee is there that it will comply with the will of the magician? Are you confident it will leave at your behest?\nWith all these kinds of questions, small wonder that while Goetic invocation may be the highlight or measure of competence of the magician; few ever make it, or continue the work. And yet, the measure of success should be the ability to easily and effortlessly invoke and work with spirits. The whole panoply of magical weapons and ritual magic should induce in the magician and the surroundings an atmosphere conducive to invocation. The fact is, this does not seem to happen.\nHealth benefits working with the Jinn\nMy own observations of the Goetia is entirely different. Various Goetic spirits have appeared to me over the years unbidden \u2013 I certainly have never ever performed ritual magick, let alone Goetic invocation. They appeared in forms that resemble the classical descriptions found in the grimoires, and they helped me with whatever problem I had. Sometimes they have informed me of a particular problem and offered to help! I usually felt better afterwards too. I can honestly say that easy familiarity with the Goetia is inspiring and blissful, and the impact on my friends and the environment has always been positive. They go as easily as they appear, which is most comforting as you can imagine. No pact is made, and I have never had to resort to torture in any form.\nI had no idea of how to repeat those experiences, particularly since so many other spiritual transformations were going on synchronistically. The discovery came during the writing of The Tarot and the Magus when there were particularly strong meetings of the spirits, and they had a hand in helping me write the book.\nWhenever you learn a new skill, a huge amount of effort is required, mistakes are made, and you have to concentrate fully. With time, the body and mind seems to remember the experience, so that just doing the preparation will be enough to start to induce the mind-set and experience that will help success.\nYou have the choice \u2013 do you want the pain, misery, boredom or fear with uncertain results, or do you want to enjoy yourself and enter the fascinating world of the Goetia, the spirits who hold the key to meeting your Holy Guardian Angel?"}

The Tesla tiny house, towed by a Tesla Model X, began its inaugural debut in Melbourne, Australia at Federation Square. From here the Tesla combination will make its way across Australia on a tour of the country.\nIf the tiny house seems familiar then you are not wrong, it bears more than a passing resemblance to the mobile design studio that the company introduced last September. This was an Airstream that had been reconfigured to allow people to create their own Tesla vehicle in a concept similar to that of the virtual mobile studio. The tiny house also includes a mobile design studio but in respect of Tesla\u2019s range of domestic solar products; incorporating their solar panels and the Powerwall energy storage battery.\nThe sides of the tiny house are made using an untreated sustainable timber, it weighs in at a hefty 2 tonnes, that\u2019s around the 4,400-pound mark, ad has a solar generation capacity of 2kW using just 6 solar panels. These panels are used to feed the single Powerwall battery that is fixed to the side.\nThe route for the Tesla tour will include destinations in every major city in Australia, but don\u2019t worry if you live in a smaller town, you can ask them to stop by along the way. And whilst Tesla might not offer solar installations in Australia it is evident that they are paving the way; and of course, their Powerwall batteries can currently be purchased to use in conjunction with the solar installations other providers currently offer.\nShould the Tiny House have the desired effect of swaying Australian consumers then it seems likely that the model will be applied to other markets. Tesla are currently in the process of building a large renewable power storage facility that uses Powerpack batteries.

Histopathology remains the gold standard for determining the extent of malignancy, with in vivo imaging to histopathologic correlation enabling spatial comparisons. In this review, the steps necessary for successful imaging to histopathologic correlation are described, including in vivo imaging, resection, fixation, specimen sectioning (sectioning technique, securing technique, orientation matching, slice matching), microtome sectioning and staining, correlation (including image registration) and performance evaluation. The techniques used for each of these steps are also discussed. Hundreds of publications from the past 20 years were surveyed, and 62 selected for detailed analysis. For these 62 publications, each stage of the correlative pathology process (and the sub-steps of specimen sectioning) are listed. A statistical analysis was conducted based on 19 studies that reported target registration error as their performance metric. While some methods promise greater accuracy, they may be expensive.

This means that a resident of this ward would have about twice the political clout of a resident in any other ward, just because he or she lives near a prison.\nIs that fair? Of course not. I just submitted a letter to the editor to the Missourian explaining why:\nCity of Pacific should refuse to use prison in redistricting\nIf you live in the Second or Third Ward, your vote is going to be worth half as much as if you lived next to the prison in the First. [\u201cRedistricting Plan Selected for Ward Boundaries\u201d October 12, 2011] That\u2019s not fair. Districts are supposed to be based on equal numbers of residents. By common sense and the state constitution, prisoners are not residents of the prison.\nThe Missouri state constitution defines residence for people in prison: \u201cno person shall be deemed to have gained or lost a residence by reason of his presence or absence while\u2026 confined in public prison.\u201d (Article VIII, S 6.)\nThe Census counts people in the prison as residents of Pacific, but the federal law does not require the city to use those counts. In fact the Supreme Court has said it\u2019s ok to remove them:\n\u201cNeither in Reynolds v. Sims nor in any other decision has this Court suggested that the States are required to include \u2026 persons denied the vote for conviction of crime in the apportionment base by which their legislators are distributed and against which compliance with the Equal Protection Clause is to be measured. The decision to include or exclude any such group involves choices about the nature of representation with which we have been shown no constitutionally founded reason to interfere.\u201d Burns v Richardson 384 U.S. 73, 92 (1966).\nThe City of Pacific should join the more than 100 counties and cities across the country that refuse to use the Census Bureau\u2019s prison counts when drawing districts.\nThe City may not have known that this solution was legal or common when it prepared the proposed maps, but it should take action quickly to ensure that all residents are given the same power to determine the future of Pacific.\nPrison Policy Initiative"}

But animals are the Northern California artist\u2019s preferred subjects.\nRanlett paints and draws commissioned \u201cpet portraits\u201d and nature images, and she\u2019s one of more than 30 artists from around the world contributing work to a benefit eBay auction to help fund the protection of mountain gorillas in Africa.\nWe talked to her by phone from Newcastle, where she shares a home with her husband, John, border collies Magpie and Patch, and a quarterhorse named Bess.\nQ: Why animals?\nA: I have always been fascinated with animals. I\u2019ve been drawing them since I could hold a crayon. In general, they have kind natures, and that\u2019s why I have an affinity for them. People are good, too, but I don\u2019t do artwork of them.\nQ: You\u2019re a biologist by training?\nA: Yes, and so is my husband. We met at Sac State. The biology background definitely helps with my artwork. I\u2019m a very detail-oriented, scientific person, and that eye for detail works well in my portraits.\nQ: Do you meet most of your animal subjects before painting or drawing them?\nA: If it\u2019s a portrait of someone\u2019s pet, I like to meet the person and the animal to get a sense of the personality. I take a whole bunch of photos, pick four that work well and let the owner make the final decision.\nQ: What types of animals are the most difficult to work with?\nA: Cats are always challenging. They love their own people, but when it comes to anyone else, they would rather go hide under the bed. But I have worked with a couple of older ones who are happy to lie around and look at me.\nDogs are easy. All you need is a tennis ball or a cookie and they are very cooperative.\nQ: What is Art for Critters?\nA: It\u2019s a group of artists who sell their work on eBay and donate portions of the proceeds to various animal organizations and charities. You can find our eBay auctions by searching for \u201cA4C.\u201d\nOne of the members of the group alerted us to the recent killing of members of a family of mountain gorillas in Virunga National Park in the (Democratic Republic of) Congo. The rangers in the park have limited personnel and funds to protect the remaining members of the family and to catch the killers. So artists are joining forces to support them. The new group is called Art Helping Mountain Gorillas.\nQ: How does the project work?\nA: Through (Tuesday), more than 30 very talented artists will be listing art on eBay. There are more than 100 items, most of them animal-themed. If the items sell, the artist donates 10 percent to 100 percent of the proceeds to help the gorillas. I\u2019ll be donating 50 percent.\nTo see the artwork, people should get on eBay and type in \u201cWDGP.\u201d All of the auction items will come up.\nQ: Where can people go for more information about your work and this project?\nA: My Web site is petportraitsbyann.com.

However, the ship runs aground on a shoal and breaks up when they are trying to reach it.\nWhile there is little doubt that this chapter records historic event, \u201cThe Ship\u201d has long been a metaphor for the Church. We see here some interesting illusions within that metaphor. It is Paul, the Church\u2019s minister aboard the ship, who gives the sailors the wise advice. Had they left the ship on at the first sign of danger they very well may have been lost at sea. Staying with the ship longer got them to within sight of shore and even when the ship breaks apart on the shoal it is the pieces of the ship that the survivors cling to that get them to shore. All the people that stayed with the ship and listened to Paul are saved.\nIt is imperative that we stay with the ship until the end. But notice, there was much drama on the ship. Some of the sailors wanted to leave, the guards wanted to kill the prisoners, the ship went through a storm of many days and for a while, the conditions were so bad they were not even able to take food. We are not promised that the journey will be easy, only that we will be saved and arrive safely.\nTomorrow: Acts 28"}

The Brooklyn Bridge, Brooklyn Dodgers, and Coney Island are icons as well known as Manhattan's skyline. Home to more than two million people, the borough\u2014one of five that comprise New York City\u2014has had many faces over the course of its fascinating history. Just across the East River from Manhattan, Brooklyn is an 81-one-square-mile peninsula that also borders New York Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean. In 1834, Brooklyn became a city in its own right and in the second half of the 19th century, a major center of industry. Its green coastline sprouted tall ships, towering grain terminals, glass and porcelain factories, and massive sugar and oil refineries\u2014some of the largest in the world. Thousands of immigrants\u2014 including those from Ireland, Germany, Norway, Italy, Poland, and Russia\u2014poured into the city to work in the factories and refineries. Fueled by shipbuilding and industrial growth, Brooklyn became the nation's third most populous city by the time of the Civil War. It built civic and cultural showpieces, a stately city hall and art museum, and the 526-acre Prospect Park, which rivaled Manhattan's Central Park. But, Brooklyn's city status did not last the century. In 1898, despite fierce opposition from their political leaders, local residents voted by a slim margin to give up their independence and join the great consolidation of boroughs that formed New York City. The new borough maintained its own identity, however, its residents taking pride in calling themselves \"Brooklynites,\" a special breed of New Yorkers. Descendants of 19th-century immigrants keep up the ethnic traditions that have characterized Brooklyn neighborhoods for generations. Brooklyn Then and Now illustrates this vibrant, ever changing borough's transformations.\nMarcia Reiss, the author of eight books about New York City history and architecture, has a long association with Brooklyn. She lived there, in Brooklyn Heights and Park Slope, for more than three decades and began writing about it in the 1970s as a reporter for the Brooklyn Phoenix newspaper. As a director for the New York City Department of Ports and Trade and later for the Parks Council, she worked on plans for converting Brooklyn's vacant industrial waterfront to public parks and ferry landings. She also wrote a series of guides to historic Brooklyn neighborhoods for the Brooklyn Historical Society.

+{"text": "Many people around the world adore cold brew coffee. No matter how cold or how hot the weather gets, people addicted to cold brew coffee will always stick to it. There are several reasons why people adore cold brew coffee over traditionally made hot coffee, and one of the most common answers behind why people choose cold brew coffee is simply because it tastes better.\nWhy Does Cold Brew Coffee Tastes Better?\nLower in Acidity\nSome pieces of research have shown that cold brew coffee is less than 67% acidic as compared to hot brewed coffee. The acidity of regular coffee can be the cause of heartburn, damage to your teeth, and it can even damage the lining of your stomach.\nCold-brew coffees\u2019 lower acidity allows for your body\u2019s PH levels to remain balanced. Many people claim that hot brewed coffee makes their stomach grumble almost immediately, but cold brew coffee does not have such effects.\nSmoother and Sweeter\nSince cold brew coffee beans are not exposed to high temperatures, they become more flavorful and less bitter. Many people claim that they need fewer sweeteners and cream in their coffee when they drink cold brew. This helps people who are on a low sugar diet or are simply trying to watch their weight.\nBlack coffee also tastes better when it is cold brewed as the bitterness reduces. People sometimes even add almond milk to their cold brew coffee to elevate the taste.\nLittle to no Waste\nYou can use cold brew coffee methods to make the coffee as concentrated as you like. Cold-brew coffee can be made one cup at a time and can be used for both cold and hot coffee. The concentrated coffee stays the same even if stored in the fridge for two weeks,\nThis is the best option for when one person loves stronger coffee compared to the other, plus the coffee never needs to go down the drain if an excess of it has been made.\nIt Can Be Served Cold or Hot\nCold Brew Coffee is not only served cold, but it can be served hot as well. The name can sound deceiving, but it does not mean that this type of coffee tastes bad when served hot; it simply means that this is the best technique for cold coffee lovers.\nYou can also make iced coffee with cold brew coffee; all you have to do is add cold water and ice to the coffee concentration. When making hot coffee, you need to boil some water and add it to the cold brew concentrate. You can also simply add room temperature water to the concentrate and then heat it up in the microwave.\nPeople tend to love cold things no matter what the season. Even in winters, people enjoy eating ice cream or other frozen desserts and drinks, which is why the consumption of cold coffee never stops, no matter the time of the year. Other than the taste, cold coffee seems to satiate people\u2019s taste buds like no other form of coffee, which is why it has become a famous drink everywhere."}
+{"text": "You may have seen the recent announcement that Accenture is eliminating its annual evaluation process. The company which employees over 300,000 people globally has said it will implement a more fluid system in which employees receive timely feedback on an on-going basis. During the past couple of years several other large firms including Deloitte, Adobe and Microsoft have announced changes to their performance review processes. Although these firms are still a small minority, a study by the Corporate Executive Board indicated that over 95% of managers were dissatisfied with their companies review process.\nAlthough there may be many objectives for having a review process, ultimately the key goal is to provide performance feedback to employees and drive a higher level of individual and organizational performance. I believe many companies often struggle with achieving a return on the time commitment required for their review process and the desired results. Many companies often have processes that become more of an exercise in completing the process instead of focusing on the objective of performance improvement.\nAfter seeing some of these large companies announce these changes, many leaders may be asking themselves if annual performance reviews are really necessary for their company. In my view, leaders need to recognize that although these companies are either eliminating or changing their process, they are not trying to stop providing feedback to employees. It is unclear exactly how Accenture\u2019s new process will work, it appears to be focus on increasing and improving the delivery of performance feedback.\nDue to the annual timing cycle many review process inherently causes feedback to be delivered at the wrong time. Although the processes suggest for leaders to have on-going performance meetings, my experience is that this is one of the least enforced part of the appraisal process. If an employee receives feedback on their work or project several months after it has occurred, there is large gap during which both the individual and companies performance could have been improved.\nInstead of just following these companies and possibly eliminating annual reviews, leaders should be asking themselves the following questions:\nDoes our review process help to improve individual and organizational performance?\nAre we seeing an appropriate benefit from the time commitment for the process?\nIn my company, what is the most effective way to provide useful and timely feedback to employees?\nWhat additional steps will the company take to help employees improve their performance?\nReflection on these questions can assist leaders in starting to determine whether their current review process is working for them and whether they need to make changes to improve its effectiveness."}
+{"text": "US and Israeli buffer zones under Syrian rebel control designed to contain al Qaeda advances\nDEBKAfile Exclusive Report January 28, 2014, 7:17 PM (GMT+02:00)\nThe Obama administration announced Tuesday, Jan. 28, that selected Syrian rebel militias would receive American light weapons including anti-tank \u2013 but not anti-air \u2013 rockets. And Friday, Jan. 24, an Israeli intelligence officer disclosed that his government was \u201crethinking\u201d its neutrality policy in the Syrian war owing to the massing of 30,000 al Qaeda fighters on its Syrian border.\ndebkafile\u2019s intelligence and counter-terror sources say these disclosures add up to a strong shift in the US and Israeli governments\u2019 non-intervention policies on the Syria conflict. That shift appears already to be evolving into joint action for a limited military venture on Syrian soil \u2013 not by the deployment of their own troops, but through Syrian rebel militias unassociated with radical Islamist organizations.\nThese rebels are already taking delivery of American and Jordanian arms and training, and receiving logistical, medical and possibly intelligence assistance from Israel.\nMostly local militias, they are assigned with manning two security buffer zones taking shape in southern Syria and warding off attempts by al Qaeda-linked Jabhat al-Nusra and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) to reach Jordanian and Israeli borders.\nThe main thrust of this American plan is to create security zones for sealing those borders against both Bashar Assad\u2019s army and the various Islamist militias including al Qaeda, by means of local anti-Islamist rebel groups provided with arms, funding and logistical aid allotted respectively by the US, Israeli and Jordan.\nIsrael for instance will carry on proffering medical aid and evacuating injured Syrians from the south \u2013 its most conspicuous form of support.\nThe plan has taken around 10 months to mature, starting from the deployment of 15,000 US special forces troops at the King Hussein Air Base at Mafraq in April 2013. The incoming units set about converting parts of the base into facilities for Jordanian military instructors to drill Syrian rebel fighters, before sending them back to Syria equipped with American weapons.\nTwo security sectors are taking form in South Syria.\nOne enclave, 45 km long and 75 km wide in the south west, is wedged between the Jordanian and Israeli borders. (See attached map).\nThe difficulty is its situation on the edge of Druze country, where 180,000 tribesmen living in 120 scattered villages, have taken care to stay out of the Syrian civil conflict and held back from acting against the Assad regime - thus far. But initial Al Qaeda encroachments on their territory may have persuaded Druze leaders to get off the fence.\nIf they do decide to throw in their lot with the US-backed rebels controlling this buffer zone, the enclave will acquire strategic depth and this part of southern Syria would grow into a powerful military entity capable of standing up to Assad\u2019s and al Qaeda forces alike.\nThe second enclave is being rolled out further north (see map), to eventually give Syrian rebel militias control of a 30-km wide strip running the 60-km length of the Syrian-Israeli Golan border which, including Quneitra, has a population of around 300,000.\nEventually, US planners expect to connect the two buffer zones as a safe haven and stronghold in southern Syria for moderate Syrian opposition elements, safeguarded by US, Israel and Jordanian military support."}

Through the research on the structure and dynamic characteristics of red birch populations in two regions in the Qinling Mountains of northwestern China, clarifying the age structure characteristics and population dynamic changes, establishing the population development prediction model, and revealing the reason for the natural regeneration obstacle, we provided a theoretical basis for protection and restoration.\nMethod The two B. albo-sinensis populations in Huoditang Forest Farm (Ningshan County, Shaanxi Province) and Taoping Forest Farm (Li County, Gansu Province) were investigated and counted. Then the static life table was drawn, the population age structure and quantitative dynamic changes were analyzed, and a population development prediction model was established. Meanwhile, the development trend was revealed by the population dynamics quantification method and quantitative time series analysis method.\nResult The age structure of the populations in the two regions was the most individuals at age \u2162, and the populations were mainly composed of young individuals. They both first declined and then increased in the early stage, then increased after a short decline in the middle term, and sharply dropped off at the age of \u2165\u2212\u2166 . The Taoping population was more susceptive to environmental factors, entered the decline period earlier than the Huoditang population. Their survival curves tended to be the Deevey-\u2161 type.\nConclusion The age structure of the B. albo-sinensis populations in Huoditang and Taoping both presents irregular pyramids, and the population development is mainly maintained by middle-aged and elderly individuals. They are both growing populations at the current stage and highly dependent on habitat factors, especially obvious for Taoping. In the future, natural regeneration would be untoward for them because of lacking seedlings to various degrees. In response to these problems, several strategies to protect and restore: artificially cultivate seedlings and transplant them into the gaps of the populations; adopt the \u201c5 times in 3 years\u201d tending method for young forests, and the pruning, pruning, mowing, removing irrigation and the like for middle-aged forests. As for stands with a canopy density of more than 0.9, appropriate thinning is required to keep about 1 500 plants per hectare to improve the natural regeneration capacity of the populations."}

Though the U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not entirely discourage women from using antidepressants, it has issued a warning that use of certain SSRI\u2019s (selective serotonin rebuke inhibitor) during pregnancy carry a risk of causing serious birth defects.\nSSRI (selective serotonin rebuke inhibitor) antidepressants such as Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft, Celexa, and Lexapro are commonly prescribed medications used in the treatment of depression. While it is often safe for women to take these medications during their pregnancy, there still lies a risk for the baby. A study done by a Danish research group in 2005 found a significant risk of heart malformation in children born to women who took antidepressants. The study showed that babies born to mothers who had filled prescriptions for more than one SSRI medication had a fourfold increased risk for developing septal heart defects (malformation of the wall that divides the left and right sides of the heart).\nThe research compared the incidence of birth defects among more than 400,000 children born to Danish women who took antidepressants and women who did not take antidepressants during their first trimester of pregnancy (first three months). According to the data collected, 0.5% of children born to mothers not taking medication developed septal heart defects, and 0.9% of children born to mothers who did take medication developed septal heart defects.\nCommon SSRI antidepressants that fall under Category C include: Zoloft, Celexa, Lexapro, Prozac, however another SSRI, Paxil is classified as a Category D medication.\nSeparate reports indicate that a fetus exposed to SSRI antidepressants during the pregnancy may have an increased risk of developing other types of complications that require hospitalization, multiple surgeries, respiratory support, and/or tube feeding. A number of birth defects associated with SSRI antidepressants include:\n\u2022 Atrial Septal Defects (ASD)\n\u2022 Ventral Septal Defects (VSD)\n\u2022 Valve Problems \u2022 Tricuspid Valve \u2022 Mitral Valve \u2022 Transposition of the Great Arteries / Vessels \u2022 Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF)\n\u2022 Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS)\n\u2022 Hypoplastic Right Heart Syndrome (HRHS)\n\u2022 Tricuspid Atresia \u2022 Aortic Stenosis \u2022 Pulmonary Atresia \u2022 Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA)\n\u2022 Coarctation of the Aorta \u2022 Truncus Arteriosus \u2022 Tricuspid Valve Stenosis \u2022 Heart Murmur \u2022 Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn (PPHN)\n\u2022 Pulmonary Stenosis \u2022 Craniosynostosis \u2022 Omphalocele \u2022 Gastroschisis \u2022 Esophageal Stenosis \u2022 Club Foot \u2022 Anal Atresia \u2022 Spina Bifida\nAt the law offices of Altman & Altman we understand that coping with a birth defect can be devastating both emotionally and financially.

+{"text": "- Clinical Pathology - Theses\nNow showing 1 - 1 of 1\nItemHeritable DNA methylation marks associated with familial breast and prostate cancerHosseinpour, Mahnaz ( 2022)The known genetic risk factors for breast and prostate cancer account for less than 50% and 35% of the familial risk respectively. Early candidate gene studies provided evidence that DNA methylation measured in peripheral blood can mimic the effect of cancer predisposition associated with germline pathogenic variants. Key examples included the increased risk of breast cancer associated with both BRCA1 promoter hypermethylation and intragenic DNA methylation in ATM. More recently, the association between heritable DNA methylation marks and breast and/or prostate cancer risk has been reported by genome-wide studies. However, it is not clear how most of these modifications in DNA methylation mediate phenotypes resulting in increased cancer risk. In this thesis, a recently developed analytic approach, based on complex segregation analysis and family structure, was applied to identify 1,000 heritable DNA methylation marks in 57 families with multiple cases of breast and prostate cancer. Using Cox segregation analysis, we found that 229 and 140 methylation marks were associated with breast and prostate cancer respectively and 63 were associated with increased risk of both cancer types. We developed a Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-based strategy using a dCas9-DNA methyltransferase enzyme (DNMT) and a modified sgRNA containing two PP7 hairpins fused with DNMT3A in the synergistic activation mediator (SAM) system to assess whether induction of DNA methylation at these methylation sites resulted in a recognised cancer phenotype (such as DNA damage and proliferation). We first optimised CRISPR mediated DNA methylation by testing three combinations, including fusion of dCas9-DNMT3A, dCas9-DNMT3B and dCas9-DNMT1 with our modified sgRNA and found that SAM-DNMT3A which involves fusion of dCas9-DNMT3A with our modified sgRNA induced highly robust DNA methylation even compared to the previously developed approach, SunTag system, via transfection of HEK293FT cells targeting BRCA1 promoter region. In addition, we performed lentiviral transduction of human mammary breast cell lines using SAM-DNMT3A and sgRNAs targeting BRCA1, PTEN and NF1 regions and demonstrated a significant DNA methylation induction at these regions compared to GFP- sgRNA, targeting non-human genes. We found that the SAM-DNMT3A could also induce higher gene silencing in comparison with CRISPR-inhibition (CRISPRi) tool, involving dCas9-KRAB. A lentiviral delivered sgRNA pooled library, including 10 sgRNAs for each of the 1,000 heritable DNA methylation sites, was generated to perform phenotypic screens in the human mammary epithelial cells, B80-T5 and K5+/K19+ cells using SAM-DNNT3A and CRISPRi tools.We measured the effect of DNA methylation on proliferation and the DNA damage response using a PARP inhibitor synthetic lethal screen. K5+/K19+ cells, showed very low phenotypic changes. Overall, the SAM-DNMT3A tool enabled a systemic high throughput pooled screen of heritable DNA methylation sites mediating breast cancer related phenotypes including proliferation and DNA damage. The findings of this study further characterise the non-genetic component of familial risk of breast and prostate cancer, provides new opportunities to elaborate how tumorigenesis can be affected by DNA methylation and develop epigenetic therapeutics targeting these risk factors, ultimately advancing both precision prevention and medicine."}

+{"text": "Antimatter is like matter on opposite day: it has the same properties as the stuff that makes up planets, stars and galaxies, but one vital piece is different\u2014its charge. The universe supposedly started off with equal parts matter and antimatter, but somehow, matter won out. Most of both substances annihilated each other shortly after the big bang, and left a small surplus of matter remaining.\nThis was answered well in the comments but I'll write it up as a proper answer. There are two main questions here:\n- Why is there an asymmetry between matter and antimatter?\n- given that there's an asymmetry, why did matter win out?\nThe second question is answered rather easily. The Big Bang produced more of one of the two types and everything, from galaxies to human beings, ended up made of this. Since we're made of that type, it is no surprise we ended up calling that one matter and the exotic type antimatter. This is not an intrinsic distinction, though: there is nothing in the lab that distinguishes antimatter from matter.\nThe real question, of course, is why there is more of one type to begin with. Indeed, as far as we can tell, all the pair production mechanisms that would have turned energy into mass just after the Big Bang ought to create equal amounts of matter and antimatter. Nevertheless, we observe more of the former and less of the latter.\nThis question is, alas, completely unresolved. We simply do not know. This 'baryon asymmetry problem' is currently an open and active research field, though no one really knows what the solution might look like. If we do find out, though, be sure that you will hear about it in the news, and that there will be a Nobel prize or two for the people that resolve it.\nStart with baryogenesis. Bottom line: Nobody knows why the universe is not mirror symmetric. We are still exploring how the universe is not mirror symmetric.\nAs to origin...anybody can be a theorist! Massless boson photons detect no vacuum refraction, dispersion, dissipation, dichroism, gyrotropy. Postulate this is exactly true for fermionic matter (quarks). Parity violations, symmetry breakings, chiral anomalies, Chern-Simons repair of Einstein-Hilbert action reveal vacuum trace chirality toward hadrons. Big Bang matter is fundamentally chosen over antimatter. Crazy talk!\nVacuum trace chiral anisotropy selective to fermionic matter alters Noetherian coupling of exact vacuum isotropy to angular momentum conservation. It leaks for matter as MoND's 1.2\u00d710^(-10) m/s^2 Milgrom acceleration. Dark matter curve-fits the Tully-Fisher relation. Crazy talk?\nOpposite shoes embed within chiral vacuum (mount a left foot) with different energies. They vacuum free fall non-identically, exhibiting Equivalence Principle (EP) violation. Crystallography's opposite shoes are visually and chemically identical, single crystal test masses in enantiomorphic space groups: P3(1)21 vs. P3(2)21 alpha-quartz, geometrically right-handed versus left-handed atomic mass distributions.\nTheory only fears experiment.\nTwo geometric E\u00f6tv\u00f6s experiments. 0.113 nm^3 volume/\u03b1-quartz unit cell. 40 grams net as 8 single crystal test masses compare 6.68\u00d710^22 pairs of opposite shoes (pairs of 9-atom enantiomorphic unit cells, the test mass array cube's opposite vertical sides).\nThe significant difference between blowing warm air and respected scholarship\nis that this warm air can be tested within 90 days in existing bench top apparatus using commercial materials.

The tumor-associated stroma is marked by increased expression of CD90/THY1. Isolation and characterization of these stromal cells could provide valuable insight into the biology of the tumor microenvironment.\nProstate CD90+ stromal fibromuscular cells from tumor specimens were isolated by cell-sorting and analyzed by DNA microarray. Dataset analysis was used to compare gene expression between histologically normal and tumor-associated stromal cells. For comparison, stromal cells were also isolated and analyzed from the urinary bladder.\nThe tumor-associated stromal cells were found to have decreased expression of genes involved in smooth muscle differentiation, and those detected in prostate but not bladder. Other differential expression between the stromal cell types included that of the CXC-chemokine genes.\nCD90+ prostate tumor-associated stromal cells differed from their normal counterpart in expression of multiple genes, some of which are potentially involved in organ development.\n- Chambers AA\n- Goo YA\n- Liebeskind ES\n- Liu AY\n- Page LS\n- Pascal LE\n- Takayama TK\n- True LD\n- V\u00eancio RZ"}

Successful implementation of the programmes and projects of the Thirty-Year Long-Term Education Development Plan has resulted in multifaceted development and unprecedented changes in the higher education sub-sector. The plan is making enormous contributions to the development of qualified human resource with higher education institutions reaching out to local communities to equip them with advanced skills and knowledge. The plan has also made appropriate investments for the establishment of the necessary infrastructure and provided the required facilities for the effective utilization of information technology in both learning and teaching. The plan has generated renewed interest in research with the setting of new objectives, upgrading of research facilities and the establishment of new research centres. With the provision of educational and training programmes with convenient hours and flexible entry requirements, the plan is contributing to the emergence of a lifelong learning society. With the introduction of new teaching methodologies, international level curricula and syllabi, new programmes, increase in the number of higher education institutions and facilities and better-trained faculty, the quality of education is being promoted on an extensive basis. In addition, the education sector is contributing to the preservation of national identity and national values through programmes that raise consciousness of the wealth the history of Myanmar, and form strong commitment to the safeguarding of the rich culture of Myanmar and time-tested traditional values.\nThe higher education promotion programmes being undertaken can further serve Myanmar\u2019s needs as it strives to become a modern and developed nation.

Plus, there is seemingly no harm in throwing something in the recycling bin. Someone at the recycling facility can surely figure out how to turn it into a new item on the shelf, right?\nTurns out, there is a name for this phenomenon: wishcycling, or recycling something only in hopes that it\u2019s recyclable. While throwing an unrecyclable plastic straw or a plastic lid into the blue bin seems innocuous, it can cause serious problems. About 25% of recycling in the United States is contaminated by unrecyclable materials, mainly because of wish cycling. Non-recyclable materials clog and damage recycling machines, require more labor and money to sort out, and ultimately deteriorate the ability to turn materials into new products.\nThese issues can make contaminated loads unacceptable by recycling sorting facilities. So, what can we do?\n1. Abide by the mantra \u201cWhen in doubt, throw it out.\u201d If you are unsure if something is recyclable, throw it away.\n2. Learn more about recycling.

+{"text": "Archived: Current state listed species recovering\nAchieving recovery of listed species and preventing further extirpations is a primary function of WDFW. Maintaining species diversity is important because of the many values (esthetic, ecological, educational, historical, recreational, and scientific) that wildlife provides to the citizens of Washington. Recovered species indicate a healthy ecosystem and have less of a regulatory impact on private and public land uses.\nForty-six wildlife species in Washington were listed as endangered, threatened, or sensitive under state law in 2013. A 2016 assessment of population trends in these species by WDFW found that:\n- 16 (34.8%) of these species are recovering\n- 9 (19.6%) are considered stable\n- 9 (19.6%) are continuing to decline\n- 10 (21.7%) have undetermined trends\n- 2 are extirpated from the state.\nUnder this measure, WDFW and its many conservation partners hope to increase the number of recovering species to 17 (35%) by 2020.\n- Protecting and improving habitat for listed species through habitat restoration and land management.\n- Implementation of recovery strategies developed for each species by WDFW and its partners.\n- Researching and monitoring species populations to determine threats, needed recovery actions, and responses to management efforts.\nWashingtonians can help in the recovery of listed species by volunteering to work on or donating to the many conservation programs conducted by WDFW and its conservation partners. They should also encourage their elected officials to devote more resources toward the recovery of listed species.\nThe purchase of personalized license plates and special wildlife background license plates (http://wdfw.wa.gov/license_plates/plp.html) provides funding for projects aimed at the recovery of listed species.\nVolunteers can go to http://wdfw.wa.gov/about/volunteer/ and should examine the Ecological Integrity Monitoring program. WDFW is in the process of developing additional citizen science programs that will allow the public to assist in species and habitat status assessments.

+{"text": "Your home is a reflection of your personality and style, and when it comes to designing your interior space, one of the first things to consider is the overall feeling you want the space to create. From casual to sleek and modern, your interiors set the stage for how you live. Here are four tips from NR Interiors to help you choose the perfect interior design vibe for your home.\n4 Tips for Choosing Your Interior Design Vibe\nConsider Your Lifestyle\nYour home should be a place of comfort and functionality, and the design should reflect that! For example, if you lead a busy and active lifestyle, a minimalistic and clutter-free design may be best for a sense of calm organization. On the other hand, if you entertain and are more relaxed, a cozy and inviting design with plenty of seating options may be more suitable.\nLook for Inspiration\nBefore making any design decisions, it's essential to gather inspiration from various sources. This could be from magazines, design blogs, or even social media platforms like Pinterest and Instagram. Look for spaces that catch your eye and make note of the colors, textures, and styles that appeal to you.\nChoose a Color Palette\nColors have the power to evoke emotions and set the mood for a space. For a cozy and inviting vibe, warm, earthy tones like beige and rust may be a good choice. For a more modern and sleek vibe, a monochromatic color scheme with shades of gray and white can create a clean and sophisticated look. Consider what feel you want your space to have and choose a palette that aligns with it!\nMix and Match Elements\nThe key to creating a unique and personalized interior design vibe is to mix and match different elements. This could include combining different textures, materials, or even styles to add depth and character to your space.\nChoosing your interior design vibe is all about knowing yourself and what you want your home to represent. Remember to have fun and let your creativity shine through the design process, and call NR Interiors today for interior design and styling services!Invest in Modern Home Decor"}

+{"text": "Petrol and fuels are a few substances essential for the functioning of the entire industry and commercial transport and non-commercial of the modern world. Thanks to these fuels, planes can fly, trucks can roll and the boats can sail. Additionally fuel allows the operation of many of the machines and devices that we use for the manufacture of products in the industries of today. All this wouldn\u2019t be possible unless there is petroleum coke. Petroleum coke is the product that results from the petroleum refining and is what allows the use of all the advantages mentioned. As already stated, petroleum coke is the product that is entirely the industrial process of the petroleum refining that is made in oil refineries operating from several years ago.\nIn other words, petroleum coke is already refined petroleum which comes ready for use as fuel in different means of transport and all machines that are used in modern industry. However there is only one type of petroleum coke but that there are several kinds of this same. There are different types of refined petroleum, i.e. of petroleum coke. So, there are combustion petroleum coke, regular petroleum coke, petroleum needle coke and carburetion petroleum coke.\nEach of these types of petroleum coke has a different function and has different types of use. Also, the obtaining of one or another kind of petroleum coke not only depends on the way as this has been refined, but it also depends on the quality of the oil that has been extracted from the oil wells. Thus the quality of crude oil depends on the well where this has been extracted. There are several processes by which different types of coke of petroleum can be obtained. Thus, strictly speaking, there is a special process for the obtaining of petroleum coke making at a place called refinery. There is another process to obtain petroleum coke which is called delayed coking unit. Other known for petroleum coke yielding through refining process is the so-called solera calciner. Through each of these processes for obtaining petroleum coke is that the fuels we use in today for the functioning of our devices obtained. Obtaining petroleum coke is a specialised industrial process for which it is necessary to have both the machinery necessary to succeed as a technology and qualified personnel who can carry out the task of achieving the petroleum coke. Since this process is very specialized and have these requirements, many countries that have good oil wells do not have refineries or industrial and technical equipment necessary for the obtaining of refined oil. That is why these countries are forced to sell their oil in raw form so that other countries processed into petroleum coke. This measure is especially costly for these countries, since they sell crude oil then having to buy this same oil at a price higher."}
+{"text": "Shamah-Elim Bible Studies\nWelcome to Shamah-Elim.info. This site is making Bible studies available to fellow born-again Christian brothers and sisters. We are a group of believers who hold the Bible to be the one, true Word of God and who believe in the coming manifestation of a Glory and Presence of God in the Christian Church that will fulfil God's prophetic promise of a latter-rain remnant.\nThis manifestation, however, has been hampered by man's stubborn tendency to adapt the Word of God to his own carnal interests. This is why the Lord Jesus is about to start a mighty spiritual revolution inside the Church that will tear down human structures so that a Mighty People of God can be raised up, a people full of grace and truth who shine forth the justice of God and who will bring about the greatest revival mankind has ever seen. God will raise up a people who will vindicate His Name, the Name that has been profaned among the nations because of the iniquity of the Church (Ezekiel 36:23).\nThe main purpose of this site is to spread the Word concerning this coming revolution and to show believers what needs to be changed in the Church, according to the Scriptures, so that the revolution can be manifested. We are in spiritual warfare. This is not a war that can be fought with literal guns and missiles. It is a spiritual war that must be fought with prophetic intercession based on wisdom revelation from the Scriptures, fought by soldiers whose only desire is to see God's will established on Earth (Matthew 6:9-10).\nWe encourage you to study the articles and to compare what is being said versus the Scriptures. God calls us to judge all things, but we must judge them with our Spirits, not with our souls. Some of the content in this site might seem \"strange\" to some believers, but we ask that you be willing to withhold final judgement until the Spirit confirms to you whether what is being said is true or not. Remember that groundbreaking principles are generally ideas that are initially rejected because they seem \"ludicrous\". Many people called it lunacy when some began to say that the earth revolved around the sun, and not the other way around. Many called Christopher Columbus a lunatic for wanting to reach the east by going west. This is why the Bible declares that we must not judge according to appearance, but with righteous judgement (John 7:24), and righteous judgement comes from having a heart that hears the Father's judgements and that is bent on doing His will, not the will of men (John 5:30). Groundbreaking principles are paradigm changers, and new paradigms can be set up only after the older paradigms are torn down; this, however, implies fighting against the culture that defends the older paradigms. When humans are not led by the Spirit, they tend to be conformists and lovers of the status quo and tradition, and these traditions and status quo are precisely the things that have tried to hinder God's coming Glory. God, however, has spoken, and He has declared that no status quo or tradition will prevent the fulfilling of His prophetic Word. Amen."}

+{"text": "Their homes had been reduced to rubble, their heritage was in the hands of foreigners, and their holy city lay in ruins. As their captors led them away to an uncertain future the smoke that rose from where Zion once stood threatened to permanently obscure the hope of the nation. The holy city of David, now abandoned and laid waste, bore witness to the sins of the nation; Jeremiah\u2019s oracles, once scoffed at by the rebellious and obstinate people of God, had now arrived in all their horror. As the heap of smoldering rubble grew faint behind them and their pagan captors led them beyond the borders of Israel this was to be seen as more than an image of the tyranny of Babylon; the Promised Land was convulsing, vomiting out its inhabitants.\nThe Babylonian exile was a brutal chapter in the history of the nation Israel. And yet, somehow, this sinful and rebellious people who had been banished from their homeland managed to take hold of hope in their wasteland; a hope that would move them to songs of celebration in the presence of their enemies; a hope that would not only sustain them in their trials but would go on to flow out of the nation to fill the world.\nIsaiah 40-66 is arguably the longest and most glorious sustained oracle of hope in the Bible. It was written for these Babylonian exiles. It speaks of a hope capable of transforming a barren wasteland into a flourishing paradise. It offers profound encouragement and comfort to a people who have nothing left to cling to but the faithfulness of YHWH. Within these glorious chapters the LORD repeatedly affirms his covenant loyalty to his wayward children, assuring them that despite their present circumstances that they remain his chosen people. As the descendants of Abraham his servant, YHWH would prove faithful to his promises to the patriarch; this nation would house the blessing of God for the world.\nAnd in the midst of this glorious oracle of hope we find these words, \u201cThe Sovereign Lord has given me an instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being taught.\u201d (Isaiah 50:4) This vocational reflection of the prophet sums up well the theme of the entire oracle. The words we find in Isaiah 40-66 sustained Israel in the hour of her greatest need. They spoke hope to the ancient exiles; they have particular resonance in that ancient context. But through them they speak to us as well. The church of today needs servants, who in the spirit of the prophet, arise early with ears attentive to the message of hope the LORD will give them for his people. I aim to be one of those voices. It is my prayer that you find encouragement, comfort, and hope here.\n Leviticus 18:25  Isaiah 40-66 could be described as one long song that the prophet sings to the exiles and urges them to sing in response. See also Psalm 74 and the transition to hope at verse 12.  Cf Isaiah 42:1-9; 49:1-7  Isaiah 41:8-20"}

With enhanced sensitivity, broader energy coverage, and improved resolution compared to prior surveys, the eRASS1 Data Release 1 (DR1) catalogue underwent a variability analysis, focusing on a substantial subset of 128,669 sources. We performed multiple variability tests, utilizing conventional normalized excess variance, maximum amplitude variability, and Bayesian excess variance methods. Among the 128,669 DR1 sources, our research identified 557 objects exhibiting variability through NEV and AMPLMAX tests. After applying suitable thresholds, 108 sources demonstrated significant variability via NEV, while 73 did so through AMPLMAX. The utilization of the bexvar method extended our detection capabilities to lower count rates, unveiling a total of 1307 sources manifesting variability. Furthermore, our comparative analysis spanning 2.5 years encompassed observations from consecutive eROSITA surveys, eRASS2, eRASS3, eRASS4, and eRASS5. Notably, the Gamma-ray burst afterglow GRB 200120A, which was the most variable DR1 source, was as expected absent in subsequent eROSITA survey scans. Observations of the Low-Mass X-ray Binary GX 339-4 across various eROSITA survey scans unveiled substantial variability. These outbursts involve the movement of the inner radius of the accretion disk, fluctuating inward and outward. Combining eROSITA and MAXI data reveals that the most effective tracer for monitoring the onset of the outbursts is the softest eROSITA band. Magnetically active stars are commonly found among the more variable X-ray sources. We analyzed the AGN sample to identify variability patterns and instances of efficiency limit violations."}

+{"text": "COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) \u2014 A U.S. military laboratory has helped Swedes confirm what was suspected for years: A woman was among those who died on a 17th-century warship that sank on its maiden voyage, the museum that displays the ship said Tuesday.\nThe wreck of the royal warship Vasa was raised in 1961, and was remarkably well-preserved after more than 300 years underwater in the Stockholm harbor. It has since been place at the Vasa Museum, one of Stockholm\u2019s top tourist attractions where visitors can admire its intricate wooden carvings.\nSome 30 people died when the Vasa keeled over and sank just minutes after leaving port in 1628. They are believed to have been crew members and most of their identities are unknown.\nFor years, there were indications that one of the victims, known as G, was a woman, because of the appearance of the hip bone, Fred Hocker, research leader at the Vasa Museum, said in a statement.\nAnna Maria Forsberg, a historian with the Vasa Museum, told The Associated Press that women were not part of the crew in the Swedish navy in the 17th century, but they could be on board as guests. Seamen were allowed to have their wives with them onboard unless the ship was going into battle or going for a long journey.\n\u201cWe know from written sources that around 30 people died that day,\u201d Forsberg said. \u201cIt is thus likely that she was a seaman\u2019s wife who wanted to come along on the maiden journey of this new, impressive ship.\u201d\nShe said the exact number of people on board that day was not known \u201cbut we think there were around 150 people. An additional 300 soldiers were supposed to board further out in the archipelago,\u201d she said.\nSince 2004, the Vasa Museum collaborated with the Department of Immunology, Genetics and Pathology at Uppsala University, which examined all the skeletons on Vasa in order to find out as much as possible about the various individuals on the doomed vessel.\n\u201cIt is very difficult to extract DNA from bones that have been on the seabed for 333 years, but not impossible,\u201d Marie Allen, professor of forensic genetics at Uppsala University said in the statement. \u201cSimply put, we found no Y chromosomes in G\u2019s genome. But we couldn\u2019t be completely sure and we wanted to have the results confirmed.\u201d\nSo they turned to the Delaware-based Armed Forces DNA Identification Laboratory. And thanks to the forensics laboratory specializing in DNA profiling at the Dover Air Force Base, \u201cwe have been able to confirm that the individual G was a woman, using the new test,\u201d Allen said.\nThe Vasa which was supposed to go to a naval base outside Stockholm to wait for the boarding of the soldiers, is believed to have sunk because it lacked the ballast to counterweigh its heavy guns."}

Wind power uses the kinetic energy of the wind to produce electric energy without generating green house gas emissions. However, when considering the whole life cycle of wind turbines it is obvious that wind energy is not totally clean. With a lifetime of 20\u201325 years for a wind turbine, it is predicted that the cumulative composite waste from blades will be needed to be recycled will be in the tens of thousands of tons worldwide by 2050. This poses a potential significant waste legacy that must be addressed. Solutions to deal with waste from wind turbine blades currently involves the three different pathways, direct deposit in a landfill, incineration, and recycling. Unfortunately, only 30% of fibre-reinforced plastic material commonly used in wind turbine blades can currently be reused to form new composite materials, with most going to the cement industry as filler material. It is important that all involved stakeholders work towards regulations that will address the management of waste coming from wind turbine blades. Fortunately, legislations exist in various jurisdictions which can be used as a model for the creation of a regulative framework for the end-of-life management of wind turbine blades.\nPeter Majewski, Nick Florin, Joytishna Jit, Rodney Anthony Stewart\nPeter Majewski, Nick Florin, Joytishna Jit, Rodney Anthony Stewart.

+{"text": "Oakdale Cemetery's establishment coincided with one of Hendersonville's most prosperous periods between 1879 and the early twentieth century, when the Spartanburg and Asheville Railroad reached Hendersonville from the east and the railroad connected Hendersonville to Asheville in 1886. This railroad line linked Hendersonville to the Ohio Valley and opened the local business community to national markets.\nThe cemetery's establishment reflects the city government's recognition that there was a need for a public burial ground on the outskirts of the city for both white and African Americans that would be supervised and professionally maintained by white and African American organizations. After the cemetery's establishment, the city drafted an ordinance prohibiting people from being buried within the city's corporate limits, and specifying that they were to be buried only at Oakdale Cemetery. Preventing burials within city limits was an attempt by the city to protect the general health of its citizens, the value of surrounding properties, and prevent any potential nuisances created by these cemeteries. This was a common practice beginning in the 1840s as part of the Rural Cemetery Movement, when cemeteries were \"established around elevated viewsites at the city outskirts\" and \"operated by voluntary associations which sold individual plots to be marked and maintained by private owners according to individual taste.\""}

'washerman'), known in some places as Dhupi or Rajaka ('remover of dirt'), is a group of castes in India and the greater Indian subcontinent whose traditional occupations are washing and ironing clothes.\nThey are a large community, distributed across northern, central, western and eastern India; as well as in Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. A majority of the community associate themselves with Hinduism. Many religiously follow Sant Gadge (Gadge Maharaj), whose jayanti (birth anniversary) they celebrate every 23rd of February.\nThe word dhobi is derived from the Hindi word dhona, which means 'to wash'. As such, Dhobi communities in many areas today come under the status of schedule caste (sc). In 2017, Supreme Court of India noted calling people dhobi was offensive. Throughout India and south-central Asia, dhobi ghat is to refer to any laundry- or washing-place where many launderers or clothes-washers (either as ordinary people or professionals) wash clothes and other linen.

+{"text": "Yes, Platys can change color. Platys are a type of freshwater fish that are popular among aquarium enthusiasts. They are known for their vibrant colors and patterns, which can range from bright orange and yellow to blue and green. However, their coloration can change depending on a variety of factors.\nOne of the main factors that can affect the color of a Platys is their environment. If the water quality in their tank is poor, their colors may become dull or faded. Conversely, if the water is clean and well-maintained, their colors may become more vibrant and intense.\nAnother factor that can impact the color of a Platys is their mood or state of health. If they are stressed or sick, their colors may become muted or even change completely. For example, a normally bright orange Platys may turn pale or even white if they are suffering from a disease or infection.\nIn some cases, Platys may also change color as part of their natural breeding behavior. Male Platys, for example, may become more brightly colored during mating season in order to attract females. Similarly, female Platys may change color during pregnancy or when they are ready to mate.\nOverall, the ability of Platys to change color is a fascinating aspect of their biology. By paying close attention to their environment and behavior, aquarium enthusiasts can help ensure that their Platys remain healthy and vibrant for years to come.\nFrequently Asked Questions About Platy Fish\nPeople who ask \u201cCan Platys change colour?\u201d also ask;"}

The authorities must not jeopardize the lives and rights of thousands of people in need of protection who are detained in these places.\u201d\n\u201cThis arbitrary decision by the National Institute of Migration hinders the fundamental work of legal assistance and verification of the situation of migrants and asylum seekers, and increases the vulnerability of these people, making clear the Mexican government\u2019s intention to evade scrutiny of its compliance with its international obligations to protect human rights.\u201d\n\u201cThe Mexican government should promptly provide clear information about the measures taken to protect the rights of migrants and asylum seekers, and publicly recognize the work of organizations that defend their rights, granting them immediate access to all migrant detention centers.\u201d\nLast Friday, in light of the repeated difficulties that several organizations reported in entering migrant detention centers on the southern border and in Mexico City, Amnesty International published an open letter asking the INM commissioner to guarantee all civil society organizations access to all migrant detention centers, in compliance with the recommendations made by various United Nations mechanisms and procedures.\nHowever, on Monday, the INM decided to formally suspend the admission of all organizations to the country's migrant detention centers. Hours after this information was published, the INM warned that new dates of entry would be \u201crescheduled\u201d, but shortly afterwards the Ministry of the Interior distanced itself from that statement, generating further concern about the lack of coordination and the situation of migrants. The INM took this unilateral decision without clarity about its implementation, just days after the Mexican government stopped the recent migrant caravan, mostly comprised of Hondurans, from entering Mexican territory. Mexican authorities have reportedly deported more than 2,000 people to this country in just nine days.\nFor years, Amnesty International has documented the Mexican authorities violating the human rights of people in need of protection, including violations of their right to seek asylum, through forced returns to their countries of origin, as well as prolonged detentions and the arrest of children in violation of Mexican law.\nFor their part, in recent decades migrant rights organizations in Mexico have repeatedly denounced the ill-treatment, overcrowding and inhumane detention conditions in migrant holding centers that impact on people\u2019s physical and emotional wellbeing, as well as the harassment of asylum seekers aimed at making them abandon their appeals and accept deportation.

+{"text": "In today\u2019s fast-paced world, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed and stressed by the constant demands of work, family, and everyday life. However, finding joy in the ordinary is essential for our well-being and happiness. One way to do this is by pursuing hobbies that bring fulfillment and a sense of purpose.\nHobbies are activities that we engage in for pleasure and relaxation, and they can range from creative pursuits such as painting and writing, to physical activities like gardening and hiking. No matter what the hobby is, it can have a positive impact on our mental and emotional well-being.\nOne of the greatest benefits of hobbies is that they allow us to escape from the stresses and worries of our everyday lives. When we are engrossed in a hobby, we are fully present and in the moment, which can be incredibly therapeutic and calming. Whether it\u2019s knitting a scarf, playing a musical instrument, or cooking a new recipe, hobbies provide a much-needed break from the constant hustle and bustle of modern life.\nIn addition to providing relaxation, hobbies can also bring a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment. Engaging in a hobby allows us to develop new skills and talents, which can boost our confidence and self-esteem. Whether it\u2019s completing a challenging puzzle, mastering a new yoga pose, or growing a successful vegetable garden, hobbies can give us a sense of pride and satisfaction in our abilities.\nFurthermore, hobbies can also provide a sense of purpose and meaning in our lives. They allow us to pursue our passions and interests, and can be a source of joy and creativity. Whether it\u2019s writing a short story, building a model airplane, or learning a new language, hobbies can spark our imagination and broaden our perspective on the world.\nIt\u2019s important to note that finding joy in the ordinary doesn\u2019t require our hobbies to be grand or extravagant. In fact, some of the most fulfilling hobbies are often the simplest. Whether it\u2019s going for a walk in nature, baking a batch of cookies, or working on a puzzle, it\u2019s the act of engaging in the activity that brings us joy, not the size or complexity of the hobby.\nIn conclusion, finding joy in the ordinary through hobbies is a powerful way to bring fulfillment and happiness into our lives. By taking the time to pursue activities that bring us pleasure and relaxation, we can escape from the stresses of everyday life, develop new skills and talents, and find meaning and purpose in our passions. So, whether it\u2019s gardening, painting, or writing, take the time to indulge in a hobby and reap the benefits of finding joy in the ordinary."}
+{"text": "The moustache twiddling decadence caused by extended aristocracy is an issue central to the narrative of Berserk. Regardless of social standing, we all like to dream that we are destined for greatness, to achieve something worthwhile. Aristocracy exists to elongate wealth and protect respect no matter what the cost, and that often includes suppressing the common mans talent to protect one\u2019s position.\nThe beauty of Berserk, and especially the Band of the Hawk, is that these are classic underdogs who dare to have ideas above their stations, chasing their dreams, doing something important with their lives. The truth, as Berserk is clearly documenting, is that anyone can do anything with their lives provided the right amount of skill and desire. It\u2019s such a romantic concept.\nGriffith, the symbolic wings of the Band\u2019s hawk, is talented and has an unquenchable desire to conquer. Despite his peasant roots, he is the future, he is brave enough to fight for his dreams, and others are attracted to that, feel inspired by it or fear it. Most are just content to jump on his back and enjoy the flight; the Hawk that soars ever higher, the view from up there is beautiful, but Guts is different, even now it\u2019s clear that he is a punk, and like Griffith, can never be tamed.\nGuts and Griffith are at once the same and totally different, they enjoy true social freedom and unerring self belief, but Guts is a blood thirsty warrior, only looking at what stands in front of his sword, while the elegant Griffith conducts his army like one would a game of chess, his mind calculating ten moves ahead. The early fight in episode 3 between these two is particularly revealing, especially in Guts case \u2013 he is completely direct, willing to throw mud, bite, kick and punch his way to victory. He refuses to give up, and in the end Griffith is forced to dislocate Guts shoulder to win the fight, Guts could have surrendered, but replies \u201cGo to hell\u201d. Win or bust.\nEpisode three marks the end of the beginning, Guts finally joins the Hawks and we are treated to their comradery. The Band of Hawk isn\u2019t simply a group of mercenaries looking for a quick buck; they are friends fighting for each other, dreaming of a better future, this all comes across really well in episode three. As does Susumu Hirasawa\u2019s excellent score, combining his surreal industrial style with authentic medieval instruments and chants \u2013 the tracks \u201cForces\u201d, \u201cGuts\u201d and \u201cEarth\u201d are all used during the episode, and all are essentially brilliant tunes, ever complimenting the poignancy of experiencing the journey of a lifetime."}

The 283 Ci (4.6 litre) engine has been fitted with a Rochester fuel injector, giving her 315 Ps. This was the top of the range C1 edition, her 315 PS, despite her 60 summers, still making this a seriously fast car. The engine is attached to the rare and very popular manual 4-speed gearbox.

+{"text": "A Notoriously Challenging Task\nUniversity of Nottingham researchers created an AI system that scanned routine medical data to predict which patients would have strokes or heart attacks within 10 years. The AI system beat the standard method of prediction, correctly making calls in 355 more cases than traditional means. Predicting cardiovascular events like strokes and heart attacks is a notoriously challenging task. In fact, the researchers note in their recent paper that around half of all strokes and heart attacks occur in patients who were never identified as being \u201cat risk.\u201d\nThe records included a decade of health outcomes, lab data, drug information, hospital records, and demographic information. The team identified the distinguishing characteristics of patients who experienced strokes and heart attacks using 75 percent of the records. They then tested their models against the standard guidelines using the remaining 25 percent of the records. The standard guidelines scored 0.728 out of 1.0, with the latter signifying 100 percent accuracy. The machine models scored between 0.745 to 0.764, with the neural network making 355 more accurate predictions than the standard guidelines, therefore earning the best score. Had those predictions been made in real time, the patients could have been provided with preventative care.\nAI Changing Medicine\nAccording to lead researcher researcher Stephen Weng, within five years the AI medical tools they are testing in labs will be improving the accuracy of clinicians\u2019 diagnoses and the prognoses of patients. In practice, Weng envisions busy doctors making the most of their time with AI tools that are essentially masters of pattern recognition. \u201c[T]he algorithm can look through the entire patient list, flag this up, and bring this to the attention of the doctor,\u201d he said to IEEE Spectrum. \u201cThis could be done with the patient sitting in front of them during a routine appointment, or in a systematic screen of the entire list.\u201d Although there is already clinical decision support software available, none of it uses AI pattern recognition \u2014 which is at the crux of these more accurate results.\nMajor regulatory hurdles remain before you'll be seeing Dr. AI, however: \u201cThe key barrier to implementation will be managing privacy and patient confidentiality issues, with computer algorithms trawling through vast amounts of patient data which contain confidential and sensitive medical information,\u201d Weng told IEEE Spectrum. Wariness of decision-making capabilities in medical machines on the part of regulators will also be a hurdle for AI technology to clear. For all of these reasons, when, exactly, the tech will be put into practice remains uncertain.\nShare This Article"}

Bawendi of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Louis E. Brus of Columbia University, and Alexei I. Ekimov of Nanocrystals Technology Inc. in New York for the discovery and development of quantum dots.\nThe three scientists each contributed to a \"fundamental discovery in nanotechnology,\" according to officials from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which awards several of the prizes each year. The work they've done has already led to new technology in television screens and in bioimaging.\nReached by phone during a press conference early Wednesday morning, Bawendi offered a stream of reactions: \"Very surprised. Sleepy. Shocked. Unexpected. And very honored.\"\nIn a rare event, the winners' names were leaked to the Swedish media before the official announcement. But Bawendi said he'd been sound asleep, \"so, no, I didn't hear anything about it.\"\nQuantum dots are particles that are so incredibly small that their size actually starts to affect their properties. For example, blue quantum dots and red quantum dots can be made from the exact same material, with the only difference being the size of the particle itself. (The blue quantum dots are smaller than red ones.)\nIn fact, changing the size can alter many different properties beyond just color \u2013 which means that quantum dots could be useful for a variety of applications, including building better solar panels and perhaps even creating fuel by using sunlight (something that plants do to generate sugars).\nWhile it may sound like a subject closer to physics, officials said that it was chemists who did much of the fundamental research in this field.\nThe three scientists will share the prize money of 11 million Swedish kronor (close to $995,000) in equal parts.\nThis is the third science-focused Nobel Prize to be awarded this week. On Tuesday, the physics prize was awarded toAnne L'Huillier, Pierre Agostini and Ferenc Krausz for helping to create super-short pulses of light that offer a glimpse into the incredibly fast and tiny world of electrons.\nAnd on Monday, Katalin Karik\u00f3 and Drew Weissman won the prize in physiology or medicine for discoveries that were key to the development of mRNA vaccines, which proved crucial in the fight against COVID-19.\nOfficials plan to announce the literature prize on Thursday, followed by the peace prize on Friday.

Your focus is on the next chapter of your life and with that, you should also consider how your estate plan needs to change. Failure to update your estate plan could mean that your affairs will not be handled the way you thought they would.\nOften we see people with an estate plan file it away for safekeeping and never think of it again. There are important reasons to periodically review your estate planning documents and ensure that they are current. Typically purchases or sales of real estate, business and other assets, as well as births, deaths, marriage and divorces should be reflected in your updated estate documents.\nMarriage and Divorce\nGenerally, it is a good idea for married couples to have an estate plan. You will want to ensure that your new spouse is addressed, and any children or stepchildren. With separation comes the time to change your estate plan. It is important to at least have a will that directs how your want your estate handled and by whom, otherwise if you die, your spouse is likely to manage your affairs and inherit the bulk of your estate. Once divorced, failure to remove your old spouse from all of your estate documents, could mean that even though you are divorced, your ex may still manage your affairs and take title to your property.\nThe internet has improved our lives in many ways. We have an incredible amount of information at our fingertips. You can now find legal templates online that at first glance may appear cheaper than hiring a lawyer. While tempting, we recommend that you just don\u2019t do it. You are unique and so is your estate plan. Those forms are not.

Using an online template may appear cheaper, but having an incomplete estate plan, or worse, could result in unintended consequences, your wishes not being met and significantly more time and money incurred at the expense of your heirs.\nTypically, people want to avoid it! Probate can be a very long, stressful and expensive process. The length of time involved in resolving issues can drain the estate of resources, so less money is left to your heirs. The time following your death will be difficult and emotional for those who survive you.If you can eliminate probate with your estate plan, that may be the best gift you can leave your family. An experienced estate planning attorney can help you avoid probate and additional expenses, preserving the value of your estate for those who you really want to have it.\nWhat Should I Update?\nIf you are separated or getting a divorce, you may be wondering what needs to be updated. If you already have a comprehensive estate plan, you need to review your Last Will and Testament and, Revocable Living Trust if you have one, Health Care Directive, Power of Attorney, deeds and more. Some other important items to consider may include retirement plans, life insurance policies, bank and financial accounts and perhaps business-related documents.

However, the bulk of the research has yielded results that are often inconsistent. In this prospective, observational study, we assessed the measurement properties of 3 commonly used, pharmacy-based measures of treatment adherence with antipsychotic agents in schizophrenia using data from the Veterans Health Administration during 2000 to 2005. Patients were selected if they were on antipsychotics and diagnosed with schizophrenia (N = 18,425). A gap of \u226530 days (with no filled index medication) was used to define discontinuation of treatment as well as medication \u201cepisodes,\u201d or the number of times a patient returned to the same index agent after discontinuation of treatment within a 1-year period. The study found that the 3 existing measures differed in their approaches in measuring treatment adherence, suggesting that studies using these different measures would generate different levels of treatment adherence across antipsychotic agents. Considering the measurement problems associated with each existing approach, we offered a new, medication episode-specific approach, which would provide a fairer comparison of the levels of treatment adherence across different antipsychotic agents.\nKeywords: medication adherence, antipsychotic agents, schizophrenia\n\u00a9 2009 The Author(s).

He developed the concept of the \"helicopter\" rig and needed an easily driven hull design which would be compatible with the rig.\nThe end result is a very easily driven yacht with a very long waterline, narrow beam and light displacement. The different rig meant that the yacht did not require the same stability as that needed for a conventional rig so a reduction in form stability because of the very narrow beam was not a disadvantage. The lifting bulb keel with a low centre of gravity helps compensate for this reduced form stability and gives a reasonably high point of vanishing stability. It should be possible to safely sail the yacht with the keel in the half raised position and access shallow waters when fully raised.\nThe construction drawings are for a cedar strip hull and an FRP / foam sandwich deck. The yacht was built at Peter Milner's yard in Perth, Western Australia. The R15.2 has an aft boarding platform, tiller steering and long trench cockpit. It is noticeably clear of the usual deck hardware with a simple bridge containing the rig and engine controls. The 38HP sail drive engine is located aft of the accommodation watertight bulkhead with access from the cockpit. Under power it will achieve a speed of 9.4 knots.

+{"text": "November 04, 2010\nFor years, woodland caribou hunting in Newfoundland has been an exciting adventure popular with bowhunters. However, that adventure may well be on hold for a while. Newfoundland's woodland caribou seem to be disappearing. In 1996, an estimated 90,000 woodland caribou roamed across Newfoundland. By 2001, the province issued 7,730 permits to resident and nonresident hunters.\nPhoto courtesy of Craig Boddington\nToday the herd has plummeted to 37,000 animals, and for 2008, the province issued only 1,235 permits, 400 going to nonresidents. In 2008, some areas of the province were closed to caribou hunting, and officials are talking of closing the 2009 caribou season completely.\nSeveral theories might explain the dramatic decline in caribou numbers. One is that timbering and other development have fragmented the habitat to the detriment of caribou. However, no data support that theory. Another possibility is that caribou may have natural cycles, and if that's the case, it would be possible that such a cycle is now in the down trend. Numbers were very low in the 1960s and bounced back, so maybe the animals experience a 50-year cycle. Again, no data exist to support this theory.\nWhen researchers compared the body condition of cows and bulls from areas of major declines to areas of stable populations, they found no difference. Adult caribou health is not the problem.\nHowever, researchers have solid data showing that calf survival for some of the herds is only 10 percent. Calf survival must be at least 15 percent to maintain a stable population of caribou, and it must be higher than that for the population to grow. Apparently, predation on calves is playing a major role in the decline of woodland caribou.\nBiologists estimate that black bears are killing 30-50 percent of the lost calves and that coyotes take about the same, if not more. In some areas, lynx also prey heavily on caribou calves. Coyotes first appeared in Newfoundland around 1988, and their numbers are still on the rise. Obviously, aggressive coyote control would be a step in the right direction to improve caribou calf survival, but when such a program might begin remains in question.\nIn developing a caribou recovery program, the wildlife folks in Newfoundland have budgeted $15 million and set a five-year strategy for implementation. On-going studies include censuses, along with studies of mortality, predator ecology, habitat, and law enforcement.\nIn the early 1990s, more than 40,000 \"Newfies\" lost their jobs when the cod fishing industry collapsed. Some found work with guides and outfitters hunting caribou, moose, and black bears. Now, the loss of the caribou resource will again have a major negative impact on rural employment, and guides and outfitters will suffer. Yes, moose hunting is very good and black bear hunting remains worthwhile, but woodland caribou hunting is what draws many nonresidents, and only time will tell how the caribou de-cline will affect the Newfoundland economy. \"Newfies\" are hardworking, resilient people, and they will survive. However, it appears that things will get worse in the caribou hunting industry before they get better."}

Among the investigated solvents, pyridinium formate showed a higher dissolution capacity (70% w/w) i.e. (710 g/L) at 75 C within 1 h. The results indicated that the introduced solvent is thermally stable, noncorrosive, possesses low viscosity and is easy to recycle. The dissolution process is purely physical and the physicochemical analysis of the regenerated lignin showed high thermal stability, with reduction in polydispersity and the average molecular weight was reduced from 4119 g/mol to 1249 g/mol. FTIR spectroscopy and 1H NMR results proved that the regenerated lignin is less degraded. Moreover the OH vibrations of regenerated lignin showed a weak inter and intramolecular interaction in regenerated lignin, which could positively help in reducing its chemical resistance towards processing for further commercial applications. Due to the higher solubility of lignin and its stability towards recyclability, the pyridinium formate proved that present selective dissolution and regeneration of lignin could significantly enhance the pretreatment techniques for lignocellulosic biomass. 2016 Elsevier B.V.\n|Appears in Collections:\n|1.

+{"text": "Last thursday night, the last Karanavar of my family joined his ancestors. He was a teacher by profession and a painter by persuasion - a professor of zoology and a painter of landscapes. Even after retiring, he was one of the founders of the ICS entrance coaching centre in Cochin and continued teaching. I've never sat in one of his classes, but he was a teacher to me and much more.\nAs a young boy, I used to gravitate towards his house. The first and primary reason was that there was a fridge (where fridges and grandparents meet, there is a likelihood of icecream). But what kept me hanging around was his VCR (also the first one in the neighbourhood). Eventually having run out of Mickey Mouse cartoons to watch, I would end up watching his collections of nature documentaries. I used to while away entire afternoons, watching some of the best documentaries BBC has ever produced. If I've acquired some sense of admiration for nature, it starts from those happy days in the eighties.\nAnd then there was his workshop. He used to play around with electronics (when he was 60+) and one of the first things I saw built was a water level detector for the water tank. Eventually, every house around wanted one of these - encased in old transistor case, hooked up to its speakers to wail out when the water got too full in the tank (while pumping it). For the first time in my life, technology was cool.\nHe was a stickler to healthy living, a strict schedule and regular exercise. Sunrise would find him in the temple, even though he wasn't a blind believer in God. He was an epitome of health, having never suffered from diabetes or blood pressure disorders, which were common in his contemporaries. But then cancer struck its blow. He survived the first onslaught, went under the knife and managed to fight it without chemotherapy. It was not be, here was a secondary, that too in his vertebra.\nBut he still had his legendary nerves of steel. When I visited him a week back, pressure on his spinal cord had cost him use of both his legs. But as I was talking to him, he launched himself into a lecture about the human anatomy and how the hip bears the load of the whole body. What took me by surprise was the obvious conclusion - he will never be able to sit upright, not even in a wheel chair. I haven't met too many who could talk so lightly of their own fate.\nNo matter how many times it happens, it never gets any easier to lose someone. But eventually, you've got to reconcile yourself to carrying a little bit of them inside yourself.\nAnd then, as I helped my uncles lift him to his funeral pyre, the thought came unbidden - Goodbye ... for now.--\nThe Way of the warrior is resolute acceptance of death.\n-- Miyamoto Musashi"}

+{"text": "Digital marketing has become an essential tool for businesses of all sizes in today\u2019s increasingly digital world. With the rise of the internet and social media, more people than ever are engaging with brands online. This has created a significant opportunity for businesses to reach a larger audience and grow their customer base through digital marketing.\nThe importance of digital marketing for businesses lies in its ability to provide a cost-effective way to reach a wider audience. With the right digital marketing strategies in place, businesses can effectively target their ideal customer demographics, allowing them to connect with customers who are most likely to convert into paying customers.\nDigital marketing also provides businesses with valuable insights into their customer behavior and preferences.

This, in turn, can help them create more targeted and effective marketing campaigns that drive results.\nDigital Marketing\u2019s Importance\nOne of the most significant advantages of digital marketing is its ability to measure results in real-time.

This can help foster customer loyalty and increase brand recognition, ultimately leading to increased sales and revenue.\nIn today\u2019s digital age, businesses simply cannot afford to ignore the importance of digital marketing. By leveraging the power of digital channels such as social media, email marketing, and search engines, businesses can effectively reach their target audience, drive sales and revenue, and build a strong brand presence online.\nIn conclusion, digital marketing is essential for businesses looking to stay competitive in today\u2019s digital world.

+{"text": "The OFT has decided to revoke the credit licence of First Step Finance Limited (FSF), a large debt resolution company based in Stockport.\nThe OFT has reached this decision because, among other matters, the company:\n- was not sufficiently transparent when describing its services, including in sales calls\n- failed to comply with OFT Debt Management Guidance, the Consumer Credit Act and other consumer legislation\n- demonstrated a lack of integrity.\nFSF\u2019s business model relies in part upon negotiating \u2018full and final settlements\u2019 for its clients. Under this model consumers make regular payments to FSF and build up a fund, which the company then uses to make offers to creditors in an attempt to settle and repay their debts.\nThe OFT found that FSF\u2019s advertising, marketing and other information failed adequately to highlight the risks associated with this business model. For example, FSF did not adequately inform consumers that there could be a long period of time when their debt would not substantially be reduced, potentially creating further arrears.\nFSF also failed adequately to inform consumers how its services operated, or the costs involved, so that customers might not appreciate the possible financial consequences should they exit a scheme early. Leaving a scheme early could mean that the customer\u2019s debt was not effectively reduced, with the associated risk of further arrears and charges.\nElements of FSF\u2019s advertising and pre-contract information also failed to comply with OFT Debt Management Guidance, including the principle that advice should be given in the best interests of the consumer.\nAn overall theme of the OFT\u2019s Debt Management guidance is for businesses to be transparent so that consumers have all the information necessary to make informed decisions about the most appropriate debt solutions for them given their financial circumstances.\nThe OFT reviewed the debt management sector in 2010 and subsequent intervention has resulted in over 100 businesses exiting (or being refused entry to) the debt management market.\nDavid Fisher, OFT Director of Consumer Credit, said:\n\u2018People in debt are often vulnerable and are entitled to expect the highest levels of integrity and transparency from debt management businesses. First Step Finance did not meet the OFT\u2019s exacting standards or its legal obligations so we are removing their licence.\u2019\nFSF can appeal the determination. Until such time as the appeal process is at an end, FSF remain licensed to engage in credit activities by the OFT.\n- The Consumer Credit Act 1974 places a duty on the OFT to ensure that licences are only given to and retained by those who are fit to hold them.\n- FSF may appeal the OFT\u2019s decision to revoke its licence to the First-tier Tribunal (Consumer Credit). Until such time as the appeal process is at an end, FSF remain licensed to engage in credit activities by the OFT.\n- The debt solution offered by FSF uses a hybrid of claims management, debt counselling and debt adjusting to reduce the debt whilst funds build up in the client account. Once a significant enough sum has built up in the client account, the business then uses this sum to negotiate full and final settlements with those creditors whose debts it believes are enforceable. This type of debt solution is referred to in the industry as a \u2018full and final settlement plan.\u2019"}

Special multiallelic RFLPs produce a DNA fingerprint particularly useful in paternity testing and forensic medicine. PCR has greatly reduced the time and expense to diagnose genetic disorders, and has an enormous number of applications both clinically and at the research level. These techniques along with DNA sequencing are currently being used in the human genome project, which may some day allow 'DNA typing' of individuals for any gene of interest.

Most scientists have not considered how different one person is from another, nor even how different one set of cells in an individual is from a different set of cells in the same person. Personalized Medicine \u2014 \u201cthe right drug at the right dose at the right time for the right person\u201d \u2014 faces the complexity of human biology. Just how different are any two people on the planet?\nThere are perhaps ~1033 different possible fertilized human eggs on the present earth, an astounding number. Six billion people provide 9 x 1018 potential mating pairs (as they are called, delicately) and each sperm and oocyte can contribute one of 8 x 106 (223) possible chromosome combinations to a fertilized egg. Additionally a fertilized egg divides perhaps 1014 times from embryo to adult, providing vast opportunities for somatic mutations that cause cancer and other diseases. That is, 1033 different possible fertilized human eggs have another 1014 cell divisions in which to progress, through mutations or environmental insults, toward disease.\nHumans are different from laboratory mice. While humans seek out breeding opportunities, laboratory mouse strains are inbred to the point of being nearly identical at the level of DNA. This is one dilemma of Personalized Medicine \u2013 the Ins and the Outs. Genomic differences make us persons with a variety of medical conditions and destinies. We experiment on mice who are nearly identical, and then on humans who might as well be from different solar systems. Genomics matter greatly, yet the dimensionality of human genomics is staggering.

+{"text": "Papay was founded by 5 individuals who had a vision of making Pandesal as an alternative for rice. Their forefront idea is to build stores in unreached locations wherein rice is the common food. Fact is, rice is still the staple food of Filipinos all over the country but is now slowly being replaced by a number of substitutes like bread, oat meals, flakes, hot cakes, fruits, and many others especially in highly urbanized areas. This is because Filipinos nowadays are more conscious with their diet thus replacing rice with a much healthier food. This is not the case in the unreached areas. Since the most common means of livelihood in remote areas are farming, instead of cooking or buying food substitute, farmers will just skip breakfast. Farming is not an easy job unlike the job of Filipinos living in the urban areas where they have the luxury of buying or cooking food that can replace rice. Farmers are scarce in everything from money, time and resources. This is not a good practice. Study shows that breakfast is most important meal of the day and skipping breakfast is not healthy for an individual. This drove the founders, Andrea, Oliver, Mon, Len and Rico to address this problem by putting up stores in these areas and sell a simple product \u00e2\u20ac\u201c \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Pandesal\u00e2\u20ac. A simple advocacy of providing food in remote areas that eventually became a profitable business. Due to its simplicity, success was an easy measurement. Putting up store in remote areas captures a ready buyer, selling pandesal uses an excellent product, affordability attracts buyers from any class, low investment makes it easy to set up are some of the key measurement of success.\nMon, honing an excellent skill in baking was able to formulate a very delectable and sumptuous tasting pandesal that is attracting buyers to keep coming back again and again. Oliver, being a project manager uses his expertise in the operation side thus achieving smooth flow of operations in all aspects of the business. Andrea and Rico, who are experts in concept making as well as in strategy building, is involved marketing. This sets Papay apart from other business because with the small cost of setting up a store, many are thinking store appearance will be like an ordinary sari sari store but this is not the case. Every small detail is well thought off making it a cut above the rest and making the business more successful and more attractive to customers. Len, with her people skills, is in charge of inspiring all 100 staffs of Papay to work harmoniously with each other.\nThe company name Papay Bakeshop was established 2012. BRAND was registered on 12/12/12 under the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines. With barely 2 years in operation, Papay Pandesal now has more than 50 company-owned and franchised branches with nearly 200 employees. With its rapid growth, the company decided to open Papay Pandesal for franchising to cope up with the demand for its pandesal. Come and grow with us CONTACT US NOW"}

+{"text": "Norai (Feast) (\u76f4\u4f1a)\nNaorai is an event that is held at the conclusion of a festival at the shrine where everyone who assembled for the Shinto ritual is made to drink sacred sake and eat the sacred food (a ritual to share drink and food). Although it is generally considered to be a closing party after a ritual, the naorai is actually one of the constituent elements of the ritual.\nIt is the same act carried out by people who eat food and drink sake that are offered to their ancestors' grave after paying a visit to the grave. Sharing the food and drink taken by the divine spirits is an act to strengthen the connection with divine spirits, to be given the power of these spirits, and to expect their protection. It also proves that the food and alcohol offered to the gods are edible. The word \"naorau\" is used as a verb when a person receives mochi or other food from a shrine. It has a similar meaning to \"naorai.\"\nJinja saishiki' (Rules for Ritual Procedure at Shrines) by the Jinja Honcho (Association of Shinto Shrines) specifies that the naorai should be performed at any kind of religious festival or ritual. The book also defines a specific procedure of the naorai. Some rituals have their original procedures of the naorai derived from a tradition.\nIn many cases, vegetables and fish of the season are offered to the god and then cooked for the naorai. That is why the naorai dishes of some shrines are the same as their local cuisine.\nIn some rituals, worshippers have a meal with the god. In most rituals, however, the fixed offerings are served and therefore are not not considered to be naorai.\nThe word 'naorai' is usually thought to derive from 'nahoriahi.'\nIt means to the end of saikai (a period of purifying body and mind for ritual) and returning to everyday life. Shinobu ORIKUCHI stated a theory that 'naorai' would refer to the ritual to worship the naobi no kami (god of purification) at the conclusion of a ceremony, as an apology for any offences committed during the ceremony.\nAnother interpretation identifies the first character with the idea of sitting down before a table set for a meal, and the second character with the idea of 'all meeting together.'\nIt states that, if naorai means 'after the conclusion of the ceremonies, people partake of the sacred sake and food offerings presented to the god,' then it does not have any element or meaning of ending purification."}

+{"text": "Opioid addiction has reached the epidemic status in the United States in recent years. A multitude of factors have contributed to an alarming increase in misuse and health issues related to these drugs. Although medications exist to treat some aspects of opioid addiction since long ago, relapse and fatality rates remain very high despite their long-term availability. Therefore, more research devoted to better understanding its neural substrates is needed to aid developing new treatment options. Interestingly, a number of studies show the cerebellum to be involved in the effects of opioids and addiction-related processes, though it is not usually regarded as part of the opioid addiction-related brain circuitry. This review provides a summary of cerebellar anatomy and synaptic organization, followed by discussing the studies reporting cerebellar involvement in opioid effects in animals and humans, and their possible role in opioid addiction. Additionally, future experimental approaches will be proposed. We hope this work will contribute considering the cerebellum as an integral part of the circuitry underlying opioid-related disorders.\nKeywords: Addiction; Cerebellum; Craving; Heroin; Prescription opioids; Withdrawal.\nCopyright \u00a9 2019 Elsevier Ltd.

+{"text": "- \u201cThe Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes\u201d provides intriguing backstories for characters like Tigris, expanding the world of the Hunger Games franchise.\n- The film explores President Snow\u2019s pre-presidential life, including his involvement in the tenth Hunger Games and his time in District 12.\n- Tigris\u2019 character evolves throughout the film, with her final line hinting at her growing disapproval of her cousin and foreshadowing her future as a rebel in \u201cMockingjay: Part 2.\u201d\nThe newest film in The Hunger Games franchise, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, has introduced some very interesting backstories for characters that the original trilogy already introduced, including the rebel and President Snow\u2019s cousin, Tigris. The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is a prequel to The Hunger Games trilogy and follows Coriolanus Snow as he becomes a mentor during the tenth Hunger Games and forms a close relationship with his tribute, District 12\u2019s Lucy Gray Baird. The new movie stars Rachel Zegler, Tom Blyth, Hunter Schafer, Peter Dinklage, and Viola Davis. It is based on a book of the same name by Suzanne Collins.\nWhile much of the film focuses on Coriolanus and his relationship with Lucy Gray, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes succeeds at fleshing out the Panem of the past. Audiences get to see the everyday life of President Snow long before he was president, including his role in the tenth Hunger Games and his time spent in District 12 as a peacekeeper. However, one of the most interesting aspects of Snow\u2019s life the film explores is his home life. Coriolanus lives with his grandmother and his cousin Tigris. As a result, audiences are able to see more about Mockingjay: Part 2\u2019s rebel.\nTigris\u2019 Final Line In Ballad Of Songbirds & Snakes Sets Up Her Rebel Future\nThough Tigris plays the role of supportive cousin and fashionable young woman throughout The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, one of the most significant parts of her character is her growing realization that Coriolanus may not be as heroic as he seems. This is shown especially well by her final line in the film. Coriolanus has just returned to the Capitol as a free man after getting Sejanus killed in District 12 and attempting to kill Lucy Gray as well. After getting dressed in a sharp suit, Tigris tells her cousin that he looks just like his father, who was very much not a good man.\nUltimately, Tigris\u2019 line shows her growing disapproval of her cousin. Earlier in the film, after Coriolanus kills a tribute, Tigris tells him that he doesn\u2019t have to be like his father and that he can be good. Therefore, when she tells him he looks like his father at the end of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, she is saying that he has changed into the evil man his father was. Tigris\u2019 feelings towards her cousin hint at her future. In Mockingjay: Part 2, Tigris appears as an older woman and a rebel, who gives Katniss refuge so that she can continue taking down Snow.\nBallad Of Songbirds & Snakes Makes Tigris A Bigger Character In Mockingjay 2\nTigris\u2019 role in The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes makes her part in Mockingjay: Part 2 much more important. Before, Tigris was nothing more than a stepping stone on Katniss\u2019 journey to defeat Snow, but now, her part has a deeper meaning. The new movie lays the groundwork for how Tigris turned into a rebel, making her appearance in Mockingjay: Part 2 make more sense. Now, audiences have a better understanding of Tigris and what she made her turn on her cousin long before he became the oppressive president in the original The Hunger Games."}
+{"text": "Listen to this page\nIntroduction to Attachment\nAttachment theory is a concept in developmental psychology that concerns the importance of \"attachment\" in regards to personal development. Defining attachment as an emotional bond to another person, the theory makes the claim that the ability for an individual to form an emotional and physical \"attachment\" to another person gives the sense of stability and security necessary to take risks, branch out, grow and develop.\nWhen babies are born into the world they are dependent upon adults for their very survival. More often than not, this adult is their mother, but can be also be another caregiver. Having a primary caregiver that perceives, make sense of and responds to the child, they develop a sense of safety. Through sharing and coordination of nonverbal signs and interactions such as eye contact, facial expressions, tone of voice, touch, timing and intensity of response the carer aligns their internal state with that of the child and gives them a sense of well-being. When these experiences of care are predictable and repeated the child develops what is called a \u2018secure base\u2019. That is, they feel safe in knowing that their needs, physical and emotional, will be meet. This internal model of security \u2013 or healthy attachment \u2013 lays the foundation and enables the child to develop well, learn about themselves and explore the world around them.\nWhy is understanding attachment important?\nOur experiences in the first dozen or so years of our lives, the experiences we have with our parents and other people who care for us, have a powerful impact on the people we become. Furthermore, relationships, in particular attachment relationships, are crucial to brain development and neural functioning throughout the lifecycle. The power of attachment relationships is to create healthy and adaptive functions in our lives, functions that emerge from integration in our brains.\nThe brain becomes literally constructed by interactions with others\u2026 Our neural machinery\u2026is, by evolution, designed to be altered by relationship experiences. Dan Seigel 2003\nAttachment helps us understand and explain how:\n- Human relationships develop from pre-birth onwards throughout their life span\n- Resilience in children is built through the support of an attachment figure and the sense of belonging that comes with it\n- Early patterns of belonging, security and attachment echo throughout our lives and play a major role in how we manage relationships in the future\nIt also highlights the importance of the parent/carer-child relationships during infancy in shaping their:\n- Interaction with other children and have empathy for others\n- Sense of security about exploring the world\n- Resilience to stress\n- Ability to regulate their emotions and be flexible\n- Capacity to have a coherent story that makes sense of their lives and understand themselves\n- Ability to create meaningful interpersonal relationships in the future"}

Recent radiocarbon dating conducted on these tablets at the University of Bologna has shed light on their origins. Remarkably, the wood of one tablet was determined to have been cut down between 1493 and 1509, a significant timeframe preceding the European arrival in the 1720s.\nThis revelation provides substantial support for the theory that the Rapa Nui people independently devised the rongorongo script, free from external influences.\nLead researcher Silvia Ferrara, a philologist from the University of Bologna, emphasized that the distinctiveness of the rongorongo glyphs, bearing no resemblance to European letters, suggests a unique and indigenous origin.\n\u201cThis discovery supports the idea that rongorongo was an original invention by the Rapa Nui islanders rather than being influenced by the writing they\u2019d seen used by Europeans,\u201d Ferrara told Live Science.\nFerrara\u2019s team\u2019s analysis revealed that the wood used in the oldest tablet likely originated from a non-native tree species, possibly driftwood, raising intriguing questions about the island\u2019s ecological history.\nDespite the significance of this discovery, the rongorongo script remains undeciphered, adding to its mystique and intrigue.

+{"text": "Power steering is a vehicle feature that assists the driver in steering by lowering the amount of effort required to turn the steering wheel. It applies hydraulic or electric power to the steering system, making it easier for the driver to turn the wheels.\nThe Importance of Power Steering\nPower steering makes it easier for drivers to turn the steering wheel, especially at low speeds or when making tight turns.\nIt improves vehicle handling and stability, reducing the risk of accidents.\nPower steering reduces wear and tear on steering components and tires, prolonging their lifespan.\nIt is an essential feature that provides drivers with improved comfort, handling, and safety.\nThis can be achieved via hydraulic power steering, electric power steering, or electro-hydraulic power steering. Depending on the vehicle speed and steering angle, both hydraulic and electric power steering systems can give varied degrees of assistance. This contributes to a comfortable and responsive steering feel for the driver, regardless of the driving circumstances.\nPower Steering Repairs\nIf there is a leak in the power steering system, it will need to be repaired or replaced. This can involve replacing a damaged hose, sealing a leaky connection, or replacing the power steering fluid.\nIf the power steering pump is malfunctioning, it may need to be repaired or replaced. This can involve rebuilding or replacing the pump, depending on the severity of the issue.\nIf the steering gear or rack is faulty, it may need to be repaired or replaced. This can involve replacing damaged components or rebuilding the entire steering mechanism.\nIf the power steering belt is broken, it will need to be replaced.\nDriving without power steering is difficult and sometimes dangerous, therefore it is critical to get any power steering difficulties identified and fixed as quickly as possible. Any problems with the power steering system can be detected and repaired by a competent mechanic or automotive expert.\nWe deliver new power steering and repair power steering throughout Ireland.

This is LAUSD\u2019s first all-girls school, for grades 6-12, and is focused on teaching STEM \u2013 Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. It is a rigorous, college preparatory curriculum, and open to any girl in the district. The school is co-located on the historic campus of Los Angeles High School in mid-city. Additional classes are offered in art, architecture, and design, including an innovative Maker Lab with 3D printers. Project based learning make courses feel relevant by solving real life problems as part of the curriculum. Extracurricular clubs and activities include sports, music, robotics, and flight club (with flight simulators).\nWhy is GALA an all-girls school? Research shows that girls do equally as well as boys in math and science in elementary school, but their grades and test scores falter in middle school and fall further in high school. All-girls schools, especially in urban areas, show higher graduation rates and higher enrollment and persistence in STEM courses.\nMy ask is simple. If you know of any girls who might be interested in attending GALA this August, there are still some openings for prospective 9th graders. Please help us get the word out about this wonderful and FREE public school alternative. Apply here.\nIt\u2019s time to change the status quo, and what better way than through K-12 education? I couldn\u2019t be more proud to be a volunteer for GALA."}

+{"text": "If realist novels are the literary avatars of secular science and rational progress, then why are so many canonical realist works organized around a fear of that progress? Realism is openly indebted, at the level of form and content, to imperialist and scientific advances. However, critical emphasis on this has obscured the extent to which major novelists of the period openly worried about the fate of mystery and the dissolution of tradition that accompanied science\u2019s shrinking of the world. Realism\u2019s modernization is inseparable from nostalgia.\nIn Realism\u2019s Empire: Empiricism and Enchantment in the Nineteenth-Century Novel, Geoffrey Baker demonstrates that realist fiction\u2019s stance toward both progress and the foreign or supernatural is much more complex than established scholarship has assumed. The work of Honor\u00e9 de Balzac, Anthony Trollope, and Theodor Fontane explicitly laments the loss of mystery in the world due to increased knowledge and exploration. To counter this loss and to generate the complications required for narrative, these three authors import peripheral, usually colonial figures into the metropolitan centers they otherwise depict as disenchanted and rationalized: Paris, London, and Berlin. Baker\u2019s book examines the consequences of this duel for realist narrative and readers\u2019 understandings of its historical moment. In so doing, Baker shows Balzac, Trollope, and Fontane grappling with new realities that frustrate their inherited means of representation and oversee a significant shift in the development of the novel."}
+{"text": "Ayesha, a 42-year old mother, was relieved to be diagnosed with asthma, but when her symptoms persisted, a CT scan revealed a rare tumour in her windpipe. After a complex surgery, Ayesha cannot breathe effortlessly. The surgery involved resection of the windpipe and stitching the ends together. Misdiagnosis of tracheal tumours as asthma is common.\nMUMBAI: The relief in 42-year-old Ayesha\u2019s laughter is unmissable. Until recently, the mother of a four-year-old couldn\u2019t finish sentences without feeling out of breath. For months altogether, she slept in a recliner, unable to lie down. A diagnosis of asthma, in fact, came as a relief because she thought she would finally start feeling better with medication. But when that didn\u2019t happen for nearly two years, the Kuwait resident hailing from Mumbai, started fearing that something more serious was at play.\nLast August, a CT scan performed by a Mumbai doctor revealed a startling diagnosis: Ayesha had a tumour growing inside the trachea or windpipe. Primary tracheal (windpipe) cancers are rare and account for only 0.2% of all cancers. The tumor, taking up 90% of her windpipe, proved the actual cause of her breathing issues, proving the initial diagnoses of asthma and bronchitis incorrect. After a complex surgery done followed by one-and-a-half-month-long radiotherapy completed recently, Ayesha is now able to talk and breathe effortlessly.\nThe tracheal tube is large and symptoms of blockage do not occur until the tumour occupies 50%-75% of the diameter, said Dr. Deepak Namjoshi, director of Criticare Asia Hospital. He said Ayesha presented with severe breathlessness called stridor, a condition that can lead to death if not treated promptly. A bronchoscopy with biopsy confirmed it to be rare tumour - adenoid cystic cardinoma that has a reported incidence of 4.5 case/lakh individuals. After discussion, doctors decided surgery was the best course of action. Ayesha along with Dr. Shravn Shetty and anaesthesia team led by Dr Chitra Pitale at CritiCare Asia Kurla, said since there is no prosthesis or implant to replace the trachea, the surgery is crucial. \"Any mistake is fatal for the patient, on table being most risky but the risk stays for the least five days,\" she said.\nChallenges for the surgery begin with anesthesia since the wind pipe was nearly completely blocked. The surgery has to be started with local anesthesia and controlled sedation is given eventually. \"The surgery was complex, involving resection of two-third circumference of the windpipe of around 3 cm. Later, the two ends were stitched together,\" Dr. Eshpuniyani said, adding that they kept the chin of the patient stitched to the chest for some days to avoid any sudden jerk of the neck that can give away the stitches and cause death instantly. Post surgery, Ayesha was removed from the ventilator shortly after and she went home after five days.\nAyesha said she consulted with at least seven physicians and pulmonologists and relied on inhalers for two years before receiving an accurate diagnosis. Several global studies have shown that tumours of trachea are often misdiagnosed as asthma and can remain undetected for months or years.\n(Patient name changed)"}

+{"text": "Elderly women can be susceptible to bone breaks. Drugs do exist, however, that are intended to prevent against those bone breaks. The problem is that, according to a study, certain drugs made by Merck & Co., Roche Holding AG and Novartis AG may actually have the opposite effect. Instead of preventing bone breaks, they may actually increase the risk of a rare form of leg fractures. So just how serious is this problem?\nIs Bisphosphonate Use Beneficial?\nA study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association revealed that women 68 years old and older who took the medicines, called bisphosphonates, for five years or more were 2.7 times more likely to be hospitalized for fractures in part of the thigh bone. The bone breaks, known as atypical femur fractures, are rare and the risk is outweighed by the benefits of the drugs for most patients, researchers said.\nAccording to the Los Angeles Times \"Booster Shots\" blog, researchers examined \"205,466 women age 68 and older with osteoporosis who took a bisphosphonate for several years and identified 716 women who had an atypical fracture.\" When compared with a control group of \"3,580 women who had not taken bisphosphonates, the long-term use of the drug was linked to 2.7 times higher odds of hospitalization for an atypical fracture.\" Overall, in women with \"five or more years of bisphosphonate use, an atypical fracture occurred in 0.13% of them in the subsequent year.\"\nWebMD (2/22, Boyles) added that last fall, the Food and Drug Administration announced that it would \"require label changes on bisphosphonates to warn of a \u2018possible risk of atypical thigh bone fracture\u2019 in long-term users.\" Although it is \"not clear whether bisphosphonates are the cause, atypical femur fractures\u2026have been predominantly reported in patients taking bisphosphonates,\" agency officials noted in a news release issued at the time.\nBased on the evidence above there are clearly risks associated with bisphosphonate use. Each individual is different, which is why it is so important that each individual assess the potential effect on his or health independently of the results experienced by other patients.\nIn fact, according to the authors who published the study in the Journal of the American Medical Association, while the risk of atypical fracture is low, the findings \"highlight the need for a thoughtful assessment of individual risk of fracture,\" the authors wrote. \"[L]ong-term use of these drugs may warrant reconsideration, especially in patients at relatively low risk of fracture.\" The authors also recommended that patients consider taking a \"drug holiday\" after five years of bisphosphonate use. However, bisphosphonates are still considered valuable therapy in the appropriate patients, they said.\nBisphosphonates can be effective but failing to consider the potential adverse effect on your individual health would be a big mistake.\nThe Legal Examiner and our Affiliate Network strive to be the place you look to for news, context, and more, wherever your life intersects with the law."}

The results revealed almost the same amount of facilitation for both relatedness conditions. These findings accord with the results of the few studies that have addressed this issue in production in Indo-European languages, as well as previous studies in written word perception in Hebrew.

Their joint work of ministry continued for nearly two more decades, through a series of interim pastorships that took them to Alaska, California, Connecticut, Florida, Montana, and Washington, in addition to a number of further assignments in rural Michigan.\nBert was known to his family and friends as joyful and tenderhearted, easy to smile and quick with a joke, and, in the words of his wife Marie, as a \u201cgood and faithful servant\u201d of the Lord (Matthew 25:23). His deep and booming voice served him well in the pulpit and in the choir, and his love of music extended from the hymns of the Psalter to the sounds of gospel and bluegrass.

This ground-breaking work is led by Dr. John Esdaile, Scientific Director of Arthritis Research Canada.\nWhy is this research important?\nThe number of people with hip OA worldwide is already high and rising. 4.2% of Canadians over 50-years-old have been diagnosed with hip OA.\nHip OA is a disease in which cartilage (a rubbery material surrounding the end of the bones) wears down and can cause pain, stiffness and swelling in the hip joints. It is a major cause of disability, often limiting a person\u2019s ability to stay active and do everyday activities at home and at work.\nKelly Barber, Assistant Chief of Coquitlam Fire & Rescue, shares his story of living with OA:\nThere is no cure for hip OA. Hip replacement surgery is the recommended treatment for severe hip OA. In Canada, hip OA is responsible for more than 90% of hip replacements. Wait times for these surgeries and recovery time can be lengthy, being a burden on the individual and the health care system.\nIMPAKT-HiP researchers believe that prevention of hip OA is possible. The first critical step to delaying or preventing the development of hip OA is to determine the causes of hip pain through IMPAKT-HiP.\nDr. John Esdaile explains how determining the causes of hip pain has important implications for the lives of many:\nLittle is currently known about what causes hip pain. It is suspected, however, that doing certain types of physical activity may interact with a common condition in the hip joint called \u2018femoroacetabular impingement\u2019 (FAI), causing hip pain and leading to hip OA over time.\nIMPAKT-HiP consists of 5 research projects dedicated to finding out more about the link between hip pain, physical activity, FAI, and hip OA."}

+{"text": "Your Divorce Is Finalized: Change Your Beneficiary Now!\nWhat happens if I divorce my spouse and I don\u2019t change the designated beneficiary on my insurance policy?\nEvery state has its own law governing this, but in Pennsylvania the insured\u2019s spouse is considered to have predeceased the insured spouse unless it appears the designation was intended to survive the divorce based on the wording of the designation; a court order a written contract between the individual and the spouse or former spouse, or a designation of a former spouse as a beneficiary after the divorce decree has been issued.\nThe presumption of being predeceased occurs if the divorce decree is final or even if the insured spouse dies during divorce proceedings and grounds have been established as provided by law.\nHowever, federal law, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), may override state law in Pennsylvania and maintain the non-insured spouse as a beneficiary if the policy is part of an employee benefit plan. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court decreed this to be the case in \u201cIn re Estate of Sauers\u201d in 2011.\nThe court reasoned that employers may well operate in several states, the beneficiaries may live in several states and employers deserved the right to be sure what the provisions for beneficiaries would be no matter in which state the insured lives.\nIn the Sauers case, the insured received a final divorce decree, did not change beneficiaries, and died three months later. The beneficiary designation form listed his ex-spouse first and his nephew second. If a private policy had been used, the nephew would have been awarded the money. But it was an employer based policy and the ex-spouse was awarded the $40,000 instead.\nIn a very similar case that began in the state of Washington and ended up in the U.S. Supreme Court, Egelhoff v Egelhoff, the same conclusion was reached.\nThe lesson to be learned is to change beneficiary designations as soon as divorce is final and not depend on state law to make up for lack of due diligence.\nHave a great week!"}

The styling is subtly revised across the lineup with reworked side panels, revised headlight cluster and fuel tank. The Tiger Explorer range looks sharper now, courtesy of the updates.\nAn array of new features come loaded on the 2016 Triumph Tiger Explorer with the most significant being the electrically adjustable windscreen, a first for the adventure bike segment along with heated grips and seats available. You also get cornering ABS, Hill Hold Control (HHC) and traction control. There are now five rider modes, four of which are pre-set while the fifth can be completely customised by the owner. The top 4 variants of the Tiger Explorer are equipped with the Triumph Semi Active Suspension (TSAS) that allows the rider to electronically adjust the front and rear suspension damping while it automatically adapts the rear shock preload setting depending on the surface.\nThe base XR and XC versions though come equipped with a WP suspension setting, missing out on the semi-active unit. In terms of power, the 2016 Triumph Tiger Explorer range uses the same 1215cc in-line three-cylinder, 12-valve engine now upgraded to be a Euro 4 compliant unit.

In addition, to project will also secure access to the LUMI supercomputer, the fastest supercomputer in Europe and the third fastest globally (the Top500 list published in May 2023). LUMI is also the seventh greenest supercomputer on the planet (the Green500 list published in May 202).\nAptamers are short RNA or DNA sequences that bind to their target proteins with high affinity and specificity. Traditionally aptamers are screened using a methodology called SELEX that is laborious and random. Here we want to include rational design into the development of aptamers using computational methodologies. By using the 3D structure of the aptamer and the target protein we can optimize the binding interactions and test experimentally only the most promising aptamers. This methodology can revolutionize aptamer design by making it easier, more rational and cheaper.\nMore details can be found here."}

The Viper from Misawa was the second Block 50 jet to achieve that impressive accomplishment, and the third overall F-16 in the United States Air Force.\nThe aircraft that clocked over the 10,000 flying hours last week, was the \u00b4913\u00b4, currently assigned to the 13th Fighter Squadron, 35th Operations Group of the 35th Fighter Wing. The milestone flight was performed by Lt. Col. Jordan Kahn, commander of the 13th FS.\nAirfield in Misawa, located in the northern part of Honshu Island, is a joint air base of the Japan Air Self-Defence Force, the USAF and the US Navy. The base includes the Pacific Air Forces facilities and is the home of the 35th Fighter Wing and its two fighter squadrons, equipped with the F-16 Fighting Falcon jets.\nThe 13th Tactical Fighter Squadron was activated on 2nd May 1966, then being a part of the 388th Tactical Fighter Wing and equipped with F-105 Thunderchief and F-4D Phantom II aircraft. Shortly after achieving the combat ready status, the Squadron took part in the Vietnam War.\nIn 1971, the 13th Squadron adopted a panther as its mascot, nicknamed \u00b4Eldridge\u00b4, after one of its pilots. On 15th August 1985, with its approval by the USAF, the black panther became the official emblem of the unit. According to the Squadron\u00b4s statement, the panther symbolizes the lightning quick reaction to aggression, while the number 13 honours members of the squadron who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.\nThe 13th Squadron is operating from Misawa air base since June of 1985. Over the next years, the unit was many times deployed for combat missions, including Afghanistan, Iraq and Jordan. In 1996 the tail code of the Squadron was changed from \u00b4MJ\u00b4 to \u00b4WW\u00b4, honouring the unit\u00b4s contribution in the Vietnam War and the \u00b4Wild Weasel\u00b4 combat missions performed by the 13th Squadron during that conflict.\nCover photo: A U.S. Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon assigned to the 13th Fighter Squadron (FS) gets inspected on the flight line before taking off to reach its 10,000 flight hour milestone at Misawa Air Base, Japan, Sept. 27, 2022.

After a storm, homeowners are often concerned about the stability and appearance of property, as well as personal safety, when limbs and trees fall due to high winds.\nUnfortunately, disreputable and unscrupulous tree crews make an appearance after stormy weather to make a fast profit off property owners in need of immediate tree help. These dangerous and unprofessional tree crews may have their own truck, a few workers, and some equipment, but they are far from professional, safe, or reliable. In today\u2019s blog post, we\u2019ll look at the four signs of a disreputable tree company to help property owners avoid becoming a victim of unscrupulous tree crews.\nDemanding Payment In Advance\nSoliciting Tree Jobs Door-To-Door\nProvide No Written Estimates or Work Orders\nDisregard Safety Practices and Tree Care Standards\nDisreputable tree crews and amateur workers offering their immediate services will typically not adhere to any OSHA safety standards, performing their work without safety goggles, tree harnesses, or cables and ropes to securely bring down large branches or tree trunks. They will also use unstable ladders and will work too close to power lines, jeopardizing their safety and health. In addition, these amateur tree crews will make recommendations for tree care services not endorsed by the tree care industry, such as tree topping. Tree topping is when the tree crown is cut down to keep limbs or branches from growing too tall, but severely harms the tree\u2019s health.\nProperty owners do themselves and their property a major favor when they can avoid hiring disreputable and unprofessional tree crews to work on their property. When tree emergencies occur, Houston property owners can rely on Embark Services to safely and efficiently remove fallen trees and limbs with professionalism and reliability. Embark Services offers a full range of tree care and landscape services, including emergency tree services, tree pruning, tree removal, tree planting, landscape maintenance, debris removal, cabling and bracing, and tree evaluation.

+{"text": "UK ministers are planning to use cancellation of a made-up debt to help meet their overseas aid target. Sudan currently \u2018owes\u2019 \u00a3678 million ($1bn) to the UK, and might qualify for debt cancellation in the next few years.\nThe Department for International Development (DFID) have admitted in an email to Jubilee Debt Campaign that any debt cancellation for Sudan would contribute to meeting the UK government\u2019s aid targets. Jubilee Debt Campaign calculate that this theoretical money could account for as much as 7% of the aid budget.\nThe debt cancellation would cost the UK government nothing and will not make any more money available to Sudan. No repayments have been made by Sudan since the country defaulted on its debt in 1984. Yet the UK government is charging very high interest rates of 10-12% per year, increasing the original debt from \u00a3173 million to the current theoretical \u00a3678 million.\nThe money is owed to UK Export Finance (formerly ECGD), a unit of Vince Cable\u2019s Department for Business. UK Export Finance backed commercial loans to Sudan during the Cold War to buy British exports. The department say that they do not know what exports the original loans in the 1970s and 1980s were for.\nTim Jones, Senior Policy Officer at the Jubilee Debt Campaign, said:\n\u201cAny debt cancellation for Sudan is not aid. The debt comes from loans to win business for Britain in the Cold War. Most of the debt is made-up money based on ridiculously high interest rates. The debt should be cancelled because it is unjust and unpayable, not used to meet targets and massage figures.\n\u201cVince Cable needs to come clean and audit all the debt claimed by UK Export Finance, to find out who loans really did and did not benefit.\u201d\nSudanese debt to the UK currently stands at \u00a3678m ($1bn), and is growing at \u00a320 million a year. Sudan is expected to enter the international debt relief scheme in the next two years. If, for example, Sudan\u2019s debt were cancelled in 2014, it would stand at \u00a3740m, totalling 7% of the aid budget.\nSudan owes Western governments $12 billion in total. Other countries are charging similarly high interest rates as the UK. If all western countries plan in the same way as the UK to use any debt cancellation to meet aid targets, this could knock $12 billion off aid spending in one year; around 12% of official aid.\n1.Jubilee Debt Campaign is the UK coalition campaigning for cancellation of unjust and unpayable poor country debt.\n3.The UK government says it does not know what it lent money for which led to the original debt being created (seehttp://www.theyworkforyou.com/wrans/?id=2011-01-17d.33178.h andhttp://www.theyworkforyou.com/wrans/?id=2011-03-16a.45330.h)."}

Alonso Moreno was the architect of this and all other buildings in this square.\nOnly the fa\u00e7ade and first bay have been preserved. From the 14th to the late 18th century, the history of the town is linked to the Duchy of Arcos.

+{"text": "The statement of fundamental truths listed below is intended to be a basis of fellowship and voluntary cooperation. The list is derived from the official Assemblies of God Statement of Fundamental Truths which represent the nonnegotiable tenants of faith that all Assemblies of God institutions adhere to.\nThis statement does not claim to contain all Biblical Truth, but the irreducible minimum for all full Gospel ministry. Thus, this statement of faith is essential because it provides an explanation of our understanding of what the Bible teaches, and thereby provides the framework in which our curriculum and instruction occurs.\nWe believe the Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, are verbally inspired of God and are the infallible revelation of God to man, serving as our all sufficient rule for faith and practice.\nNature of God\nWe believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe that Jesus Christ was sent of God, begotten of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, and came into the world as Savior for man\u2019s redemption.\nWhen Christ came to the earth in the incarnation, God\u2019s Life was housed in a body prepared by Mary. He was tested of the devil in every aspect of human life, crucified, resurrected, ascended to the Father and was glorified as the incorruptible seed, the Word of God (I Peter 1:23). This seed of Life is what is planted into the dead spirits of men by the miracle of the new birth.\nMan was created in the image of God and became alienated from God through Adam\u2019s sin. The Lord Jesus Christ came into this world, died for our sins according to the Scripture, giving His Life a sacrifice and shedding His Blood. Being reconciled by His death, the saving Life of Jesus Christ becomes the new nature that is to be fed and developed by the Holy Spirit in each Christian (Romans 5:10).\nWe believe in the ordinance of baptism by immersion as commanded in the Scriptures by our LORD for all believers, to appropriate their death with Christ on Calvary and rise with Him in newness of life.\nResurrection and Return of Christ\nWe believe Christ arose from the dead with a glorified body, ascended into heaven and is on the right hand of the Father as our Advocate and our High Priest. Three appearances of Christ were ordained in the Divine plan: the first was when he came into the world through the miracle of the incarnation; the second will occur when He returns for those who have received the cleansing of His Blood, the impartation of His Life, and have made themselves ready; the third will be when He returns with His saints to reign on earth for one thousand years.\nBaptism of the Holy Spirit and Divine Healing\nWe believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with evidence as in Acts 2:4. We believe that in God\u2019s redemption plan for man He has provided through His Son and by the Holy Spirit the miracle of healing for the body, soul and spirit.\nWe believe there will be a final judgment in which whosoever is not found written in the Book of Life will be consigned to the lake of fire.\nWe believe that God is bringing His Church to completion and expect to see an increasing demonstration of God\u2019s supernatural grace and power in meeting human need."}

Therefore, these are the headline conclusions that we have drawn from the aggregated responses.\nThe key overall findings were:\n- Changing cash usage is a concern for a wide range of central banks across the world, not only those countries experiencing \u201cless cash\u201d already.\n- Better data and information is a key priority to support policy and operational decision making.\n- Cash logistics (sorting, distribution etc.) is a mature activity for central banks with projects focused on delivering quality and efficiency rather than more capacity.\n- Outsourcing is a growing trend with a significant focus on getting the regulations right and in place.\n- It is now normal for new banknote designs to be phased in over time rather than launched simultaneously in a single new family release.\n- Banknote durability is a core focus in almost all of the re-design projects. The number of countries involved in upgrades or new design releases was substantial.\n- Supplier management is more talked about than done.\nAs usual we have donated \u00a330 to UNICEF for each completed survey and we have provided those who took part with a comprehensive report.

To help combat this, there are some helpful tips at https://www.martinlegacyholdings.com/sell-my-house-fast-in-hephzibah-ga/ for sellers who want to and need to sell their homes in these months.\nIt\u2019s not easy selling a house during holiday season. Houses may have been on sale for as long as six months in some cases and buyers\u2019 buying priorities will change over time from family vacations to Christmas gifts when they start looking again in January.\nWhen selling a house in October or December, it may be helpful to be transparent about potential holiday showings and, as much as possible, schedule all showings on weekends. Also, consider advertising that the house will be open for all types of showings during the week between Thanksgiving and Christmas.\nThe Christmas season can also cause buyers to take a break from looking at houses. Potential buyers will take this time to go on family vacations or schedule a vacation for next year.\nWhen thinking about listing a house during the holiday season, it is helpful to start advertising the house as early as possible. Potential buyers may be busy at work with deadlines and other projects, so they may not have time to search listings in October and December. If a house is listed in October or November, it could take more than six months to sell \u2013 much longer than other months throughout the year.\nFor sellers and realtors, the key to selling a house in October or December is to be proactive while also being sensitive to buyer\u2019s needs. With an aggressive marketing plan and an open house policy, these months may be better than others when it comes to selling a home.\nThere are other factors that could come into play for potential buyers\u2019 buying priorities. Potential buyers might want their Christmas shopping done early before beginning their vacation in December or may want to start looking for a new home before their vacation ends. These situations will determine when they are able to search for a new home.\nHow October May Sell a House\nWhen thinking about selling a house in October, there are many advantages to advertising in September or early October. Potential sellers should start advertising the property early, if possible. This will enable them to start generating interest before the busy Thanksgiving season kicks off \u2013 when family may be too distracted to stop by and see homes."}

It does not capture the literary depth of her lyricism, the unique strength of her distinctive voice, or the deftness and versatility of her guitar playing. Nor the fact that she\u2019s one of the most interesting personalities in rock (or folk-rock/folk/folk-jazz, whatever). Mitchell\u2019s biography is riveting; her chatty and cantankerous interviews a treat.\nAnd, if you somehow didn\u2019t know from her many album covers, Mitchell is also an accomplished visual artist. \u201cI have always thought of myself as a painter derailed by circumstance,\u201d she said in 2000. \u201cI sing my sorrow and I paint my joy.\u201d It\u2019s a great quote, though she also sings her joy and paints sorrow\u2014as in the portrait of her hero, Miles Davis, made just after his death. (Davis was a painter too, and they bonded over art.)\nMitchell began selling her work \u201cwhen I was in high school to dentists, doctors\u2014small time,\u201d she told Rolling Stone in 1990. She has written poetry since her teenage years. Her imagistic songwriting came from a love of literary language. \u201cI wrote poetry,\u201d she says, \u201cand I always wanted to make music. But I never put the two things together,\u201d until she heard Dylan\u2019s \u201cPositively Fourth Street\u201d and realized \u201cyou could make your songs literature.\u201d\nPainter, poet, singer, songwriter, guitarist\u2014all of the artistic sides of Mitchell have mingled throughout her career in the visual splendor of her covers, compositions, and lyrics. They also came together in a rare 1971 book. After the release of Blue, Mitchell \u201cgathered more than thirty drawings and watercolors in a ring binder and paired them with handwritten lyrics and bits of poetry,\u201d writes Amanda Petrusich at The New Yorker.\nShe had the book handbound in an edition of 100 copies and gave it to friends for the holidays, calling it \u201cThe Christmas Book.\u201d Now it has a different title, Morning Glory on the Vine, for a new edition to be released October 22nd. Part of the extensive celebrations for Mitchell\u2019s 75th birthday, this edition fulfills a decade-long desire for the artist. \u201cI always wanted to redo it and simplify the presentation,\u201d she tells Petrusich. \u201cWork is meant to be seen.\u201d\nThe collection \u201cfeels consonant with Mitchell\u2019s songwriting\u201d in that it captures \u201ctantalizing details about home,\u201d in this case the home in Laurel Canyon that she shared with Graham Nash, the inspiration for the Crosby, Stills & Nash song \u201cOur House.\u201d Still life compositions and self-portraits, both \u201cvivid\u201d and \u201cintimate,\u201d complement her vulnerable, playful, \u201cfunny and weird,\u201d lyrics and verses.

Their families had settled in the Tolar area when they came to Texas from Tennessee.\nBesides Ed, the Alva Wards were parents of one other son, Howard, who was killed in an automobile accident in 1950 and a daughter, Lemora Joyce McCarty, who resides in Hood River, Oregon.\nOf course, Ed attended school in Lipan. He remembers that he was in the first grade when the bank in Lipan was robbed. In the chase that followed, bullets were fired and some of them went through the windows of the first-grade room. None of the students were injured and Ed says that they were not really frightened because it was over before they knew what was happening.\nAfter graduating from high school in 1935, Ed began farming. He did attend Texas A&M for a short period of time but decided that farming was what he wanted to do. He was one of the first ones in the community to purchase a tractor.\nOn Dec. 9, 1939, Ed married Pauline Elsie Tipton. She was born at Morgan Mill on April 25, 1920. Her parents were William Otis and Lucy Elsie McKenzey Tipton. The family lived for a while at Albany. She attended school there and in the Hassel community and later at Lipan. Pauline has two brothers, Charlie Tipton of Granbury and William Tipton of Waxahachie, and one sister, Martha Bell Queen, who spends most of her time traveling.\nOtis Tipton owned a feed mill in Lipan after moving back to this area from Albany.\nEd and Pauline are the parents of four children. Kevon lives on the original Ward farm east of Lipan, Eddie resides in Fort Worth, Nanetta Carol Pridgeon in Burleson and Edwisa Kay Queen in Arlington. There are eight grandchildren now and another one due by Christmas. There is also one great-grandchild.\nThrough the years besides farming, the Wards were also in the egg business for about 40 years. Deliveries were made twice a week to Fort Worth as well as other places.\nLooking back, the Wards remember Lipan as a bustling little town, especially on Saturdays. The stores were crowded. They remember the store that was owned by Mr. Rippetoe which was located along where Lambertson's store is presently located. It was in that store where people gathered to listen to prize fights, etc. on the radio.\nRastus Cook owned one of the first cafes and also an ice house. A block of ice could be bought for 5 cents. The Bean store is also remembered as well as the \"picture show\" upstairs. Admission was 5 cents.\nEd remembers when his parents purchased their first car, a Model-T, when he was a young man. There were not many cars at that time. People mainly came to town in wagons that had to be parked behind the stores.\nEd and Pauline enjoy traveling. They are members of a travel club but enjoy traveling to other places. They are presently making plans for a trip to the Northwest in the near future.\n~ Web Page by Virginia Hale ~\n2000 HOOD COUNTY TEXAS GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY"}

+{"text": "Nobuko Sasaki is a lecturer at a university in Tokyo. She is the Azure Apostle and former accomplice to the Azure King, her lover, and attempts to ruin the Armed Detective Agency after her lover's death. Sasaki is a young woman of slim build with pale skin and dark brown eyes. She has straight black hair that reaches her mid-back, and long bangs across her forehead brushed slightly to the right. She wears a pale, cream shirt under a white bolero, a knee-length, light grey skirt, black stockings, and black low heels. During her visit to the cemetery, and later her death, she wears a plain white kimono. While Sasaki initially seems a kind, friendly, and a rather patient woman, she is more than meets the eye. An accomplished woman in the criminology field, she's remarkably intelligent and skilled in her field of expertise, giving her an especially profound understanding of people. A resourceful woman, she succeeds in manipulating a number of infamous criminals from behind the scenes, leaving few tracks and no way for her victims to track her down. Having no friends or family to turn to, Sasaki devoted herself to the Azure King's ideology, admitting to having no strong ambitions of her own, instead of appearing to cling to her lover's instead. Consequently, when the Azure King contemplated suicide after failing to change the corrupted government from the inside, Sasaki shows a surprisingly ruthless, drastic side, being the one who arranged many of the Azure King's terrorist attacks. This further emphasises Sasaki's intelligence, manipulating the situation from the background and allowing her lover to 'fulfil' his ideals. She shared his belief that the law system is too flawed to give influential people their due punishments, and had no qualms with schemes that led to not only their deaths but countless other victims. To Sasaki, the end justified the means: punish the so-called 'nonpunishable'. For all her accomplishments and wit, Sasaki, ultimately, feels hollow inside since the death of her lover, the Azure King. Having devoted herself to another person's ideology, Sasaki essentially lost her reason for living after his demise. She exhausted herself in attempts to fulfil her lover's desires and sense of justice, which she herself acknowledges did nothing but hurt her in the end. With no one to truly blame, Sasaki directed her anger and grief towards the Armed Detective Agency, due to their involvement in the Azure King's death, as if she had no one to blame, she felt she'd lose her mind. Nonetheless, Sasaki feels no joy nor sense of accomplishment in severely damaging the Agency's reputation. During her confrontation with Doppo Kunikida and Osamu Dazai, she expresses nothing but a hollow, exhausted sensation, reaching the end of her ropes in trying to fulfil the Azure King's ideals, noting the man never said he loved her to begin with. Her targeting the Agency stems from both resentment and desperation for something to live for, unable to live for her own desires. The victims who suffered because of her she viewed only as a means to an end. Sasaki points out that she could never with an idealist, as she'd always come last compared to their ideals, and ultimately be left behind. To her, the idealism the Azure King and Kunikida shared inevitably led people like Sasaki to feel left behind, always put second to ideals that could never truly be reached. Ironically, it's that exact nature that drew her toward Kunikida, to the point where she attempted to confess her love to him in her dying moments, showing considerable conflicting emotions with her feelings towards idealists."}

Among those caught in the attack was a two-year-old girl named Sadako. In the years after the war Sadako initially seemed to have survived without negative effects; then, despite being an active, athletic young woman, she developed leukemia. While under treatment for her illness, one assumed directly related to the perceived effects of atomic radiation, she began folding origami (folded paper) cranes. Amassing a total of one thousand such cranes was assumed to insure the granting of a wish-and Sadako desperately wanted to live. Unfortunately, despite reaching her goal, she died at the age of sixteen.\nHer classmates and friends continued folding cranes in her honor, then dedicated them as a prayer for peace. Eventually a Childrens\u2019 Peace Memorial, using a model of the folded paper crane as one of its central motifs, was dedicated in Hiroshima\u2019s Peace Park to the hundreds of child victims of the atomic bomb as an eternal prayer for a peaceful future world. Thereafter individuals and groups from around the world began bringing their collections of a thousand paper cranes to the monument as a concrete expression of their own personal or collective prayers for peace.\nYour cranes can unite with thousands of others hanging near the Childrens Peace Memorial in Hiroshima to honor children killed by the atom bomb with a prayer for peace.\nMakela writes, \u201cHow fortunate I feel to have been a part of that chain of circumstance.

Be sure to tie a knot at the end of the string. To separate the cranes on the string, add a 1/4\u2033 piece of a plastic straw or coffee stirrer between each crane.\nBefore sending them to Hiroshima, here are some other ways you can share the story of Sadako, the legend of the crane, and your beautiful display of paper cranes:\n1. Hang them in a school or a public library, and ask the librarian to make a display of books related to Sadako, Japan, World War II, leukemia, and peace.\n2. Bring them to a nursing home or hospital along with instructions for folding the cranes; it\u2019s a wonderful activity to share with others.\n3. Ask your local newspaper to publish a story about why you folded the cranes along with a picture of all the people who participated.\n4. Look for someone traveling to Japan who would be willing to go to Hiroshima to personally place your cranes at the based of the statue. It could be a business person, a student, or someone visiting a relative. Call travel agents to see if they are booking people on flights to Japan, and ask them to help you find someone who might take on your crane mission.\nWhether they are sent to Hiroshima, the President of the United States, the mayor of a small town, or a sick person recovering from an illness, the gift of a thousand paper cranes is a powerful gesture of caring, devotion, and love."}

+{"text": "So what is it really? Social Engineering is the act of exploiting a person\u2019s natural tendency to trust another person or entity. Because the vulnerability exists within people, there is no truly effective method for remediation. That is not to say that you cannot protect your sensitive data, but it is to say that you cannot always prevent your people or even yourself from being successfully conned.\nThe core ingredients required to perform a successful confidence trick are no different today then they were before the advent of the Internet. The con artist must have the victim\u2019s trust, and then trick the victim into performing an action or divulging information. The Internet certainly didn\u2019t create the risk but it does make it easier for the threat to align with the risk.\nBefore the advent of the Internet the con artist (threat) needed to contact the victim (risk) via telephone, in person, via snail mail, etc. Once contact was made a good story needed to be put into place and the victim\u2019s trust needed to be earned. That process could take months or even years and even then success isn\u2019t guaranteed.\nThe advent of the Internet provided the threat with many more avenues through which it could successfully align with the risk. Specifically, the Internet enables the threat to align with hundreds or even thousands of risks simultaneously. That sort of shotgun approach couldn\u2019t be done before and significantly increases an attackers chances of success. One of the most elementary examples of this shotgun approach is the email based phishing attack.\nThe email based phishing attack doesn\u2019t earn the trust of its victims; it steals trust from existing relationships. Those relationships might exist between the victim and their bank, family member, co-worker, employer, etc. In all instances the email based phishing attack hinges on the attacker\u2019s ability to send emails that look like they are coming from a trusted source (exploitation of trust). From a technical perspective, email spoofing and phishing is trivial (click here for a more sophisticated attack example).\nThe reason why it is possible for an attacker to steal trust from a victim instead of earning that trust is because face to face trust isn\u2019t portable to the Internet. For example, most people trust their spouse. Many people talk to their spouse on AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Skype, etc. while at work. How do they know that they are really chatting with their spouse and not a hacker?\nSo how do you protect against the social risks and prevent the threat from successfully aligning with those risks? The truth is that you can\u2019t. Con artists have been conning people since the dawn of man. The better question what are you doing to protect your data from the hacker that does penetrate into your IT Infrastructure?"}

Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons and your daughters, your wives and your homes.\u2019\n15 When our enemies heard that we were aware of their plot and that God had frustrated it, we all returned to the wall, each to his own work.\n16 From that day on, half of my men did the work, while the other half were equipped with spears, shields, bows and armor. The officers posted themselves behind all the people of Judah\n17 who were building the wall. Those who carried materials did their work with one hand and held a weapon in the other,\n18 and each of the builders wore his sword at his side as he worked. But the man who sounded the trumpet stayed with me.\n19 Then I said to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people, \u2018The work is extensive and spread out, and we are widely separated from each other along the wall.\n20 Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, join us there. Our God will fight for us!\u2019\n21 So we continued the work with half the men holding spears, from the first light of dawn till the stars came out.\n22 At that time I also said to the people, \u2018Have every man and his helper stay inside Jerusalem at night, so they can serve us as guards by night and workmen by day.\u2019\n23 Neither I nor my brothers nor my men nor the guards with me took off our clothes; each had his weapon, even when he went for water."}

She attended Clyde School in Melbourne, excelling in sports, as well as academics. In 1933 she met Ernesto Genoni, her life partner. Ernesto had met Rudolf Steiner in Dornach in 1920, and together he and Ileen pioneered biodynamic farming in Australia through the establishment of their Demeter farm in Dandenong (now the site of Springvale Botanical Cemetery). The farm ran from approximately 1934-1954. Ileen had become ill during this time, and was confined to a wheel chair for the remainder of her life. On her death, Ileen bestowed the bulk of her estate to the furthering of Anthroposophy in Australia. After Ernesto\u2019s death in 1975, her close friend and niece Peggy became her devoted carer.

+{"text": "Millennium Metalcraft, Inc. is a leading manufacturer of metal products, offering a wide range of fabrication services. One of the key decisions that clients have to make when ordering metal products is the type of coating they want on their products. In this blog post, we will explore the pros and cons of two common types of coatings: wet paint and powder coating.\nWet paint is the traditional method of coating metal products. It involves the application of a liquid paint on the surface of the metal. The liquid paint is sprayed on the surface of the metal using a spray gun or applied using a brush. The paint then dries and forms a protective layer on the surface of the metal.\nFlexibility: Wet paint offers a wide range of color options, allowing clients to choose the exact color they want for their products.\nCost-effectiveness: Wet paint is relatively cheap compared to other coating options, making it an attractive option for clients on a budget.\nQuick application: Wet paint can be applied quickly, allowing for fast turnaround times on orders.\nDurability: Wet paint is not as durable as other coating options, and the paint can easily chip or fade over time, especially when exposed to harsh weather conditions.\nEnvironmental concerns: Wet paint can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the atmosphere during application, which can be harmful to the environment.\nPowder coating is a newer coating method that has gained popularity in recent years. It involves the application of a dry powder on the surface of the metal. The powder is sprayed on the metal using a spray gun and then baked in an oven to form a protective layer.\nDurability: Powder coating is extremely durable, and the coating can last for many years without chipping or fading.\nEnvironmental friendliness: Powder coating is environmentally friendly, as it does not release VOCs during application.\nAesthetics: Powder coating offers a wide range of color and texture options, allowing clients to choose the exact look they want for their products.\nCost: Powder coating can be more expensive than wet paint, making it less attractive to clients on a budget.\nLimited flexibility: Powder coating does not offer the same level of flexibility in terms of color options as wet paint.\nIn conclusion, the choice between wet paint and powder coating will depend on the specific needs of each client. If cost is a major concern, wet paint may be the best option. However, if durability and environmental friendliness are important, powder coating is the way to go. Ultimately, it is important to work with a reputable metal fabricator like Millennium Metalcraft, Inc. to ensure that the right coating is chosen for each project."}

+{"text": "Bunsen, Robert Wilhelm Eberhard (1811\u20131899)\nRobert Bunsen was a German chemist, born in G\u00f6ttingen, who was a pioneer of chemical spectroscopy. Bunsen began the study of zoology, chemistry, and physics at the university of his native town, and continued them at Paris, Berlin, and Vienna. After having lectured at G\u00f6ttingen and Cassel, he filled the chair of chemistry in succession at Marburg, Breslau, and, from 1852, Heidelberg. His papers on physics and geology, as well as chemistry, are numerous.\nBunsen did important work with organo-arsenic compounds, and along with his friend Berthold in 1837, showed that hydrated iron oxide is an antidote to arsenic poisoning. He was the first to produce magnesium in large quantities; and in 1860 he invented the magnesium light, which proved so important to photography. But the greatest advance with which his name is associated is that of spectrum analysis \u2013 made in conjunction with his colleague Gustav Kirchhoff \u2013 which had such far-reaching consequences in chemistry and astronomy. It was the means by which Bunsen and Kirchhoff discovered cesium (1860) and another alkali metal, rubidium (1861). The Bunsen burner was an invention probably not of Bunsen himself (although Bunsen undoubtedly popularized its use) but of his technician, Peter Desdaga, and based on one by Michael Faraday. Bunsen also invented other kinds of laboratory equipment, such as the Bunsen cell, a carbon-zinc electric cell that was used in arc lamps.\nBesides his original work in chemistry, Bunsen was a brilliant teacher. The government of Baden made him a privy-councilor in 1863."}

+{"text": "This article explores the appearance, in Jonathan Lethem's Chronic City and Ben Lerner's 10:04, of ontological instability and disturbing nonhuman presences in urban space. Developing the work of Brian McHale in Postmodernist Fiction, ontological instability is understood here as shifts in what is deemed as real or unreal in the storyworld, and the resulting uncertainty (for characters as well as for readers) as to the stable ontological attributes of the narrated world. Such shifts feed into broader apocalyptic undercurrents in Lethem's and Lerner's novels. They are also important for an understanding of how early twenty-first-century fictional texts come to grips with complex environmental threats, and have relevance for the relationship between human vision, consciousness, and the environment. In Chronic City and 10:04, I will argue, a sense of unsettling nonhuman presence is realized in continuous references to menacing weather conditions and occurrences that threaten the ontological stability of the narrated storyworld."}

Born on December 11, 1863, in Dover, Delaware, Cannon's journey through the cosmos would unfold as an epic odyssey, leaving an indelible mark on our understanding of the universe.\nAnnie's fascination with the stars sparked at an early age. Encouraged by her mother's love for astronomy, she would spend countless nights under the Delaware sky, dreaming of the mysteries that lay beyond. Little did young Annie know that her curiosity would propel her far beyond the confines of her terrestrial home.\nAnnie's academic journey led her to the hallowed halls of Wellesley College, where she cultivated her passion for the sciences. Graduating in 1884, her insatiable thirst for knowledge beckoned her across the Atlantic to study at the Harvard College Observatory. This sojourn marked the beginning of her cosmic exploration.\nThe late 19th century posed considerable challenges for women in academia, yet Annie Jump Cannon defied conventions with unwavering determination. Joining the Harvard College Observatory in 1896, she embarked on a mission to unravel the secrets of the stars.\nHer breakthrough came in the form of the Henry Draper Catalog, a monumental effort in stellar classification. Collaborating with a cadre of pioneering women astronomers, Cannon developed the spectral classification system that laid the foundation for our contemporary understanding of the cosmos.\nIn her quest to organize the cosmos, Cannon became the maestro of mnemonics. The iconic phrase \"Oh, Be A Fine Girl, Kiss Me\" became the key to deciphering the intricate language of stellar spectra. Her mnemonic brilliance streamlined the classification of stars, turning a complex astronomical puzzle into a harmonious symphony of celestial understanding.\nAnnie Jump Cannon's influence extended beyond the observatory. As a tireless advocate for women's rights, she paved the way for future generations of female astronomers. Cannon's commitment to equality mirrored her cosmic pursuits, breaking through barriers both terrestrial and celestial.\nAnnie Jump Cannon's contributions earned her numerous accolades, including being the first woman to receive an honorary doctorate from Oxford University. Her legacy lives on in the stars she classified, the minds she inspired, and the astronomical pathways she forged.\nAs we cast our eyes heavenward, the constellations whisper the name of Annie Jump Cannon \u2013 a stargazer, a scholar, and a cosmic trailblazer whose odyssey through the universe continues to illuminate the infinite wonders of the night sky."}

+{"text": "The ideal struck string  can be modeled by a zero initial string displacement and a nonzero initial velocity distribution. In concept, an inelastic ``hammer strike'' transfers an ``impulse'' of momentum to the string at time 0 along the striking face of the hammer. (A more realistic model of a struck string will be discussed in \u00a79.3.1.) An example of ``struck'' initial conditions is shown in Fig.6.10 for a striking hammer having a rectangular shape. Since ,7.6the initial velocity distribution can be integrated with respect to from , divided by , and negated in the upper rail to obtain equivalent initial displacement waves . Interestingly, the initial displacement waves are not local (see also Appendix E).\nThe hammer strike itself may be considered to take zero time in the ideal case. A finite spatial width must be admitted for the hammer, however, even in the ideal case, because a zero width and a nonzero momentum transfer sends one (massless) point of the string immediately to infinity under infinite acceleration. In a discrete-time simulation, one sample represents an entire sampling interval, so a one-sample hammer width is well defined.\nIf the hammer velocity is , then the force against the hammer due to pushing against the string wave impedance is . The factor of arises because driving a point in the string's interior is equivalent to driving two string endpoints in ``series,'' i.e., the reaction forces sum. If the hammer is itself a dynamic system which has been ``thrown'' into the string, as discussed in \u00a79.3.1 below, the reaction force slows the hammer over time, and the interaction is not impulsive, but rather the momentum transfer takes place over a period of time.\nThe hammer-string collision is ideally inelastic since the string provides a reaction force that is equivalent to that of a dashpot. In the case of a pure mass striking a single point on the ideal string, the mass velocity decays exponentially, and an exponential wavefront emanates in both directions. In the musical acoustics literature for the piano, the hammer is often taken to be a nonlinear spring in series with a mass, as discuss further in \u00a79.3.2. A commuted waveguide piano model including a linearized piano hammer is described in \u00a79.4-\u00a79.4.4. ``Wave digital hammer'' models, which employ a traveling-wave formulation of a lumped model and therefore analogous to a wave digital filter , are described in [527,56,42].

The Growler remained at NAS Fallon for several years, as refurbishment of this nature had never been done before and there were no processes or procedures on exactly how the repairs could be completed.\nUpon initial inspection, there was little hope the aircraft would be fit to fly due to the complexity of the repairs required following the mishap, as well as weather damage from years of sitting in a desert environment. However, after thorough analysis and continued coordination, the Growler\u2019s road to recovery began when clearance for repair was granted in 2021.

You will find familiar things here; you may also find things that startle and amaze you.\nIn this book, you will find no anecdotes about angels or demons, except those that come out of the Bible. I have refrained from building doctrine either on my own experiences or those of others. Other books that I have read about the subject abound in such stories, but I find many of them unconvincing.\nThe devil and demons has enticed some writers to present normal incidences as quite sensational behaviour and quite speculative notions. I am certain many of those conjectures are spurious, and much of the erratic behaviour reported by some authors are merely psychic. I have grave doubts even about some of the things I have observed in my own ministry of exorcism, let alone what I have seen in the ministry of others. So I resolved in these pages to avoid personal testimony, and to stick to scripture.\nI regret having had more discernible contact over the years with demons than with angels - yet I am confident the holy angels have been continually and effectively active in my life, and I hope what I have written will show this, along with the honour and gratitude I feel toward them.\nWriting these two books has reinforced my belief that it is unwise to desire too much knowledge about either angels or demons. We should be content with what scripture tells us. To yearn for more is perilous, and may lead to deep deception. These pages will serve you well if they do no more (nor any less) than sufficiently expose you to the world of angels to enhance your confidence in God, and to the world of demons to ensure your personal mastery over Satan and all his works.\nThis book is now also available as an ebook from Smashwords Angelology the study of Angels - Ebook version\nAll Scripture is God-breathed and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be perfected, thoroughly furnished to every good work.

+{"text": "Pauline Palmer 1867\u20131938\nStill arguably the best-known Chicago woman artist of her time, Pauline Lennards (or Lennard) Palmer was born in McHenry, Illinois, attended school in Milwaukee, and taught art in Chicago public schools. Her marriage in 1891 to prosperous Chicago physician Albert Palmer enabled her to have a fulltime career as an artist. Palmer studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and began exhibiting there in 1896; she completed her formal training with three years of study in art academies in Paris. On her return to Chicago in 1902, Palmer opened a portrait studio and she quickly established herself as a fixture in the city\u2019s art world. She exhibited regularly in the Art Institute\u2019s three annual exhibitions and in important national and international exhibitions, notably the prestigious Paris Salon. At the Art Institute, she won numerous prizes. Her first solo exhibition was held there in 1913 at the same time as the famous so-called Armory Show of modernist art.\nIn 1917, Palmer joined the influential artists\u2019 community in the Tree Studios building on Chicago\u2019s Near North Side. A leader among local artists, she was the first woman to serve as president of the Chicago Society of Artists, between 1918 and 1921, and she led the Association of Chicago Painters and Sculptors from 1929 to 1931. Palmer and her husband traveled widely, making several visits to Europe. In 1910 she worked in Giverny, France, an international center of impressionist practice where she absorbed the influence of American figural painter Richard Emil Miller. Beginning in 1915, the Palmers spent summers in Provincetown, Massachusetts, a popular seasonal colony for both modernist and conservative artists; after her husband\u2019s death in 1920 she spent more time there, making light-filled figural and landscape paintings.\nPalmer was adept in oil, pastel, tempera, and watercolor. In addition to portraits, she painted numerous studies of women and children as well as landscapes. Her work matured from a dark, tonal, academic approach to a conservative impressionism in which forms are suggested by distinct brushstrokes of brilliant color that emphasize the effects of full sunlight. Known as \u201cChicago\u2019s painter lady,\u201d Palmer was a perennial local favorite for her pleasing subjects and accessible style. In 1926 Chicago Tribune art critic Eleanor Jewett described her as one of \u201cthe two most popular and best liked artists belonging to Chicago\u2019s art colony\u201d (Frederic M. Grant was the other).i At the Art Institute, notwithstanding modernism\u2019s dominance by the 1930s, Palmer was honored with a solo memorial exhibition the year after her death, as well as with one at the Union League Club of Chicago.\nWendy Greenhouse, PhD\ni Eleanor Jewett, \u201cArt and Artists,\u201d Chicago Tribune, Mar. 14, 1926."}

+{"text": "As providers of Medicare services, nursing homes rely heavily on the timely and accurate reimbursement from the government to ensure the provision of top-quality care to their residents. The negative financial implications of claim rejections due to inaccurate provider enrollment cannot be overstated, as nursing homes risk losing millions of dollars, leading to their financial instability and, subsequently, their ability to provide quality care.\nBeginning April 1st, 2023, a claim with any invalid or inaccurate provider information will be rejected for all services for the entire month. This new regulation further emphasizes the need for nursing homes to prioritize accurate provider enrollment, as even minor errors such as misspelled names or outdated addresses can lead to costly claim denials, which can result in significant revenue losses and cash flow issues.\nThe consequences of these denials on nursing homes can be far-reaching, as they heavily rely on Medicare reimbursements to maintain their operations and ensure that their residents receive adequate care. Claim rejections can lead to significant financial losses, impairing the nursing homes\u2019 ability to meet financial obligations and purchase necessary supplies.\nMoreover, correcting inaccuracies in the enrollment information can be a complex and expensive process that can take up valuable time and resources. This often leads to nursing home staff being pulled away from their core duty of providing care to residents, further exacerbating the situation.\nThus, nursing homes must prioritize accurate provider enrollment by working with experts, such as Streamline Verify, to ensure that their provider information remains up-to-date in the Provider Enrollment, Chain, and Ownership System (PECOS). Through this, nursing homes can avoid costly claim rejections and concentrate on providing the best possible care to their residents.\nFurthermore, it is important to note that effective April 1, 2023, Medicare systems will edit institutional claims to ensure that institutional providers do not use any organizational National Provider Identifier (NPI) in the Attending Provider NPI Data Element, except under specific exceptions. Institutional providers must indicate the Attending Provider Name and Identifiers for the patient\u2019s medical care and treatment on institutional claims for any services other than nonscheduled transportation claims. Additionally, on outpatient claims, institutional providers must send the Referring Provider NPI and name when the Referring Provider for the services is different from the Attending Provider.\nIt is crucial for healthcare compliance officers to stay informed of these new regulations and work with their team to ensure that their organization is compliant. Failure to do so can lead to significant revenue losses, cash flow issues, and difficulty in providing quality care to patients."}
+{"text": "Police In The Panopticon\nDr. Brett Stoudt guests. We marvel at the military-grade technologies empowering police to be everywhere at once, and how their Kafkaesque aversion to accountability turns any free world into an e-carcerated state.\n(1:24) Mitch introduces Dr. Brett Stoudt, head of the CUNY Graduate Center's PhD program in Critical Psychology. He rattles off a handful of the NYPD's latest and shadiest technologies, exponentially increasing the power with which law enforcement can bring the city to its fingertips. He points out that some of these use cases are blatant 4th Amendment rights violations, simply basking in the salad days of unsophisticated policy. Examples include surveillance towers, stingrays, LRAD, x-ray vans and heat vision helicopters. Telekinetic's reoccurring theme -- of technologies slowly creeping over centuries to arrive at their current bewildering state -- pops its head out once again. (10:32) We take stock of all these technologies and ask the obvious question: where does the money come from, and why? Mitch reads verbatim a head-scratching example of Pennsylvania State Police nabbing $4 billion from highway and bridge funds. Brett offers an easy-to-internalize concept: we have convinced ourselves that safety & security equates to police, ergo any program or budget containing safety & security as a line item will naturally translate to, \"give this money to police.\" (16:17) Brett shows how the natural progression of making this money and power more invisible is to migrate to surveillance technologies, where accountability can be further abstracted even as power to manipulate the environment increases. He invokes the concepts of e-carceration and school-to-prison pipelines -- how 24/7 surveillance limits its subjects to walking a frighteningly narrow path, and how that path turns into a plank when enough data can be gathered to support biased precedent. (21:47) Mitch's hot take: given the keys to such an astounding amount of data, we should be policing on intent rather than behavior. Brett dismantles this argument with the quickness. (25:44) We talk through a simple, memorable mental model to reform police and communities: ask yourself how much police contribute to safety where you live. De-center police as the assumed answer to crime, and then de-center crime from the concept of harm. From this new lens of observing and analyzing your community through the notion of mitigating harm, you begin to see just how little the police can or should actually be involved, which leads to a reassessment of where community investments should be going instead."}

In one patient an oligoclonal CD4 (+)and CD8(+) T cell infiltration, with a moderate to strongly skewed TCR VII usage was suggestive for an antigen driven infiltration/expansion. Indeed, a number of intraocular CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells responded to crude retinal and choroidal lysates.

JIMENEZ VERDEJO, J.A. PULIDO-ARCAS, C. RUBIO-BELLIDO & FUNO SHUJI\nThe fortified city of Cavite, located in Manila Bay, has played a remarkable role in the history of Spanish walled settlements in East Asia. Due to its geographical location (a peninsula protected from the open sea) and its inner harbour, whose waters allowed anchoring of large draught hulls, this small town flourished for more than 200 years as a commercial and military enclave. Unfortunately, this settlement was obliterated by air raids during World War II, and nowadays just some traces of the former city\u2019s walls and urban fabric can be seen. In this context, this research aims at clarifying the current state of this fortified city and reconstructing the historical process of its formation and transformation. Extensive fieldwork was performed in 2010 to clarify the current condition of this area; consultation of historical maps from archives and databases has provided the main chronological periods which have influenced its historical evolution. As a result, this research features a reconstruction of Cavite from 1659, the date of its oldest graphical representation, to the present time. Also, it identifies the most representative extant structures regarding the fortification system and the urban fabric which it encloses. These outcomes provide a complete database of the scarce elements which have survived in relation to their historical appraisal, thus making a contribution to the conservation and protection of Cavite, a part of the Spanish colonial architectural heritage in the Philippines.\nfortified city, historical evolution, Philippines, Spanish colonial heritage"}

+{"text": "Revealing How C. diff Recognises its Human Target\nComplete the form below to unlock access to ALL audio articles.\nResearchers from the University of California, Irvine and Harvard University have discovered how the Clostridium difficile toxin B (TcdB) recognizes the human Frizzled protein, the receptor it uses to invade intestinal cells and lead to deadly gastrointestinal infections. The findings, published today in Science, could pave the way for new C. diff antitoxins and also show potential for the development of novel anti-cancer drugs.\nIn a C. diff infection (CDI), TcdB targets colonic epithelia and binds to what are called Frizzled (FZD) receptors. Researchers in the labs of Rongsheng Jin, PhD, professor of physiology & biophysics from the UCI School of Medicine, and Min Dong, PhD, from Boston Children\u2019s Hospital - Harvard Medical School, found that during this binding process, the toxin locks certain lipid molecules in FZD, which block critical Wnt signaling that regulates renewal of colonic stem cells and differentiation of the colonic epithelium.\n\u201cThis toxin is indeed very smart. It takes advantage of an important lipid that FZD uses for its own function, to improve its binding affinity and specificity to FZD,\u201d said Jin, \u201cHowever, the need for this lipid also exposes a vulnerability of TcdB that could be exploited to develop antitoxins that block toxin-receptor recognition.\u201d\nJin and Dong believe that the novel FZD-antagonizing mechanism exploited by toxin B could be used to turn this deadly toxin into a potential pharmacological tool for research and therapeutic applications, including anti-cancer drugs.\nThe team\u2019s preliminary data show that a non-toxic fragment of TcdB that they identified could significantly inhibit the growth of some cancer cells with dysregulation in Wnt signaling. A patent application has been filed.\nClostridium difficile causes severe gastrointestinal tract infections and tops the Center for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s list of urgent drug-resistant threats. Clostridium difficile infection has become the most common cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and gastroenteritis-associated death in developed countries, accounting for half-million cases and 29,000 deaths annually in the United States. It is classified as one of the top three \u201curgent threats\u201d by the CDC.\nThis article has been republished from materials provided by University of California - Irvine.

+{"text": "CREATION OF A CATALOGUE OF CRITERIA\nHigh flexibility for ad hoc growth\nThe SAP Basis team handles the entire administration of an SAP system. As a company, you have to decide whether you want to leave the support of your system within your company or place the \"Basis\" in the hands of an SAP expert.\nEspecially in larger companies, which also have multiple locations in different countries, it is often necessary to grant different employees the same permissions for different levels of organisation, such as accounting circles. In order to make maintenance and maintenance of the system easy in such a situation, it is useful to set the inheritance principle for SAP permissions. How does SAP Permissions Inheritance work? An inheritance is always about a master object passing certain properties to a derived (sub) object. Therefore, these properties do not need to be maintained several times. Also, changes to the master object are passed directly to the derived objects. This allows easier maintenance and drastically minimises the error rate. In the case of SAP Permission Inheritance, the required permissions are bundled in a Upper or Master role. Only the organisational levels have to be maintained in the roles derived from them. The permissions are automatically pulled from the master role. Create Inheritance for SAP Permissions The following shows how to create and use inheritances for SAP permissions. This requires only two steps: Creating a master role and defining derived roles. Step 1: Create a master role Inheritance always requires a parent role, because all properties are inherited from it. If this role, in which all shared permissions are bundled, is missing, the first step is to create this master role. To do this, open the PFCG transaction and enter the desired name of the master role in the Name field. It is possible to identify master and derived roles by using naming conventions. The \"Single Role\" button will then be used to create the desired role. In the following example I create the master role \"findepartment_r\".\nHigh Availability ( HA/DR ) concepts\nA partner agreement must be entered into for each supplier in the transaction WE20. Such an agreement shall determine how the electronic data are processed. Select the vendor partner type LI and create a new partner agreement. In this example, a new partner agreement is created for IDES AG as a supplier. Enter the vendor's partner number in the appropriate input field and select LI as the vendor's partner type. The next step is to define the output parameters. These specify how the outgoing data should be processed. The message type defines what kind of messages should be processed. The Output Options tab specifies the port to send the message to and the IDoc type. The IDoc base type ORDERS05 matches the ORDERS message. The Message Control tab defines which application should generate a message. In this case a message should be generated when a new order is created. If an order is placed for a product of IDES AG in the transaction ME21N, this order will be automatically sent in electronic form.\nSAP Basis is structured as a classic three-tier model. It contains the following components:\n\"Shortcut for SAP Systems\" is a PC application that simplifies or even facilitates many activities in the SAP base.\nThis step prompts you to customise your modifications to Repository objects by calling the transaction SPAU.\nI recommend that you schedule the background job PFCG_TIME_DEPENDENCY with the report RHAUTUPD_NEW."}

Eureka Stage\nThe horse and trainer develop a dialog of learning where chains of behavior can be built without extensive repetition. The horse has learned to learn. In this phase the food motivator can become less important as the horse and rider focus on communication and the game at hand."}
+{"text": "Somewhere in between the Tilar\u00e1n Mountain range, Pe\u00f1as Blancas National Park in Costa Rica is a hidden gem on the outskirts of the province of Puntarenas.\nHiking in Pe\u00f1as Blancas is not for the faint of heart. The trails are not regularly maintained, and the topography of the country is unforgiving. The ecosystems of the 2,400 hectares (5,930 acres) park are varied by elevations into the Cordilera de Tilar\u00e1n. Much of the park is tropical dry forest, but in the higher elevations it becomes deciduous moist forest. Camping is allowed at Pe\u00f1as Blancas, but you will need to prepare accordingly for staying here as there are no facilities on site.\nThe wildlife found in Pe\u00f1as Blancas National Park is sparse when compared with some of the other parks in Costa Rica, but when being compared to some of the most biologically dense places on earth, this isn\u2019t a hard feat to accomplish. Still, there are a number of animals to be found in Pe\u00f1as Blancas such as pacas, monkeys, kinkajous, opossums, raccoons and red brocket deer. The rocky and canyon filled terrain of Pe\u00f1as Blancas make it a difficult landscape for even the hardiest of creatures.\nPe\u00f1as Blancas National Park in Costa Rica is also home to a less prolific display of flora than some of its brethren. With that aside, the plants that can be found in the park consist of orchids, bromeliads, the aguacatillo, the balsa and laurel trees. Much of the area is in a process of reforestation after a period of logging depleting much of the forest, and, thus, the habitat for much of the creatures that live in this area. The namesake of the park is based on diatoms, which make up the chalky faces of rocks in the park, and is the remains of algae that was indigenous to the region many years prior.\nVisitors should pack a swim suit, towel, hiking boots and backpacking gear, a tent, rain gear, sun block, thicker clothes for higher elevations and insect repellent. The best time of year to head to Pe\u00f1as Blancas National Park is in the dry season from December to May. The landscape being what it is, you are advised to travel into the area via a four wheel drive vehicle. Nearest to Pe\u00f1as Blancas is the city of Miramar, Costa Rica, but further out are the cities of Macacona, Pitahaya and Barranca.\nLocation: Pe\u00f1as Blancas National Park\nItems to bring: a swim suit, towel, hiking boots and backpacking gear, a tent, rain gear, sun block, thick clothes, insect repellent\nSpecies of fauna: pacas, monkeys, kinkajous, opossums, raccoons, red brocket deer\nSpecies of flora: orchids, bromeliads, the aguacatillo, the balsa, laurel trees\nCities nearby: Miramar, Macacona, Pitahaya, Barranca\nWays to get here: rental car (4WD), taxi (4WD), private shuttle (4WD)"}

+{"text": "WFP Completes Dredging Work at Mogadishu and Berbera Ports (Somalia)\nThe World Food Programme (WFP) has completed dredging works in the port cities of Mogadishu and Berbera, which has allowed larger ships to dock and more cargo to enter Somalia.\nThe clear blue waters of the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean lap Somalia\u2019s enviably long coastline of more than 3,000 kilometres. For years, ports along this coast have been neglected, littered with sunken vessels and general debris. The tide has washed in tons of silt, making the ports less accessible.This has had a damaging effect on the transport of both commercial and humanitarian cargo.\nAs part of a special operation, the World Food Programme rehabilitated the port in Mogadishu and then quickly turned its attention to the north-eastern port of Bossaso.\n\u201cBossaso has become a key entry point for the northern corridor into north central Somalia, where WFP\u2019s operations have significantly increased, especially since the droughts in 2011,\u201d says Paul Wyatt, head of logistics for WFP Somalia.\nA \u201cbucket dredger\u201d and crew removed the silt from the sea floor, scoop by scoop. The sediment was loaded aboard the dredging vessel and then dropped in waters about a mile beyond the coast.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been removing silt from the inner harbour, where small vessels with cargo from Dubai and other places dock, but also the outer harbour where large relief ships dock,\u201d says Dredger Captian Michael Dennis.\nBy removing 160,000 cubic metres of silt, the port depth has been increased overall by about one and a half metres. That means ships with greater drafts can now safely navigate into the port of Bossaso, because the water is deep enough for them to berth even at zero tide. The number of berthing ships has since risen by almost a third. And with bigger ships now able to dock, the tonnage of imports has gone up by 50 percent.\nThis has given a big boost to local trade. For WFP, it has meant the ability to transport greater volumes of food to Somalia at any one time, making its life-saving operations more efficient \u2013 and, importantly, more cost-effective.\nWFP, March 14, 2013"}

+{"text": "\"Intelligent sorting\" is a key technology and development trend in the logistics industry. With the rapid growth of e-commerce and the continuous development of global trade, logistics companies need to process a large number of orders and ensure the quick, accurate, and efficient sorting and delivery of goods. In traditional logistics sorting processes, there is typically a heavy reliance on manual labor, resulting in low efficiency and high costs.\nIntelligent logistics sorting systems integrate advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing, the Internet of Things, and computer networking. Controlled by a central sorting system, these systems utilize machine vision for automated barcode recognition, information input, sorting, and delivery of parcels. This setup enables the modernization and efficiency of logistics management. The system operates without the need for human intervention, ensuring high efficiency and accuracy. Consequently, it significantly improves the speed of logistics sorting and delivery, transforming \"sweat logistics\" into \"smart logistics.\"\nBased on the Intel LGA1200 socket, the new AIoT7-H510 Mini-ITX industrial motherboard is designed for 10th/11th generation i9/i7/i5/i3/G series CPUs. Equipped with machine vision algorithms, it contributes to the development needs in the field of intelligent logistics. Meeting the industry's requirements for precision, efficiency, and flexibility in logistics sorting, it aids customers in achieving comprehensive planning for logistics sorting equipment.\nThe AIoT7-H510 Mini-ITX industrial motherboard comes with dual-channel DDR4 memory slots for unleashing high-speed computing power. The PCIe X16 expansion slot supports PCIe 4.0, enabling the expansion of data acquisition cards, video capture cards, interface cards, and more. With four USB3.2 interfaces, it can connect to intelligent capture cameras, completing package information recognition and collection functions. Dual 2.5Gbps wired networks ensure high-speed and stable data transmission. Six serial ports support various peripherals such as barcode scanners, weighing modules, and infrared systems, enabling functions such as reading courier information and weighing package weights.\nAt various levels of logistics sites, the electromagnetic environment is harsh and the conditions are complex. Therefore, an industrial grade solution with higher quality is quite important. JWIPC's products for Intelligent sorting are featured with\n1. Utilized with high-Tg wide temperature PCB materials for working under wide temperature range from 0 to 60\u2103\n2. Industrial-grade port protection for blocking static electricity and surges"}
+{"text": "Well that took absolutely no time at all. A coalition of conservative groups lead by the Koch-affiliated American Energy Alliance (and including the Koch-affiliated Americans for Prosperity, the Koch-affiliated Competitive Enterprise Institute, among others) are showing up in force against renewable energy, urging congressional Republicans to allow a key wind energy tax credit to expire.\nWind power's Achilles heel, for the time being, is that it's not yet sustainable on its own -- without tax credits, it collapses. According to the American Wind Energy Association, capacity and construction drop a full 84 percent when the wind production tax credit (PTC) isn't available. In a letter addressed to House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), the groups warn that Democrats will try to extend the PTC during the lame-duck session. Forget that doing so will save jobs and promote clean energy, they argue: cooperating would be tantamount to endorsing climate action.\n\"Rejecting efforts to extend the PTC is a meaningful way for this Congress to oppose the president's climate plan,\" the letter reads. \"A vote for extending the PTC is a vote for the president and the majority leader's agenda.\"\nThe incredibly duplicitous thing about this is the way the groups spin wind energy into a climate change issue, when in reality, it's much simpler than that -- and something that, unlike the EPA's power plant rule, has bipartisan support. Last March, 144 Congressional members, lead by Sens. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) and Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Reps. Steve King (R-Iowa) and Dave Loebsack (D-Iowa) called for the PTC's renewal (wind power contributes over 27 percent to Iowa's energy mix, while Colorado's home to major wind turbine manufacturers). Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad, a Republican, once wrote a letter to the Wall Street Journal calling them out for trying to politicize the PTC, when in reality, he argued, the wind industry is \"an American success story that is helping us build our manufacturing base, create jobs, lower energy costs and strengthen our energy security\" -- not, as the AEA letter reads, \"an attack on affordable energy from gas, coal and nuclear.\"\nEven Joni Ernst, Iowa's newly elected Tea Party senator who literally wants to shoot it out with the feds and who has not seen \"proven proof\" that human activity contributes to climate change, has publicly supported the wind credit.\nThe letter itself is proof that the Koch brothers, who are notorious for attacking renewable energy -- precisely because their fossil fuel interests are so threatened by renewable energy -- fear that their cronies in the federal government aren't on their side. \"The letter is, in part, an expression of concern among groups that are usually aligned with Koch (and the conservative movement) that House leadership is starting to stray pretty far off the reservation with respect to tax extenders,\" said Mike McKenna, \"a Republican lobbyist whose clients include a Koch Industries affiliate,\" told E&E News. \"It has the potential to be a significant source of conflict.\""}

This enchanting place is located within the lush forest of the Valle del Treja Regional Park, a protected area that extends over approximately 700 hectares, where nature presents itself in all its splendor, with rivers, woods, wildlife and spectacular water features. It is an oasis of authentic serenity, perfect for relaxing and regenerating away from the chaos of the city.\nThe Monte Gelato waterfalls are a system of jumps and pools with pure, crystalline waters that flow between the limestone boulders of the Treja River, a tributary of the Tiber. In addition to their extraordinary beauty, the entire area boasts a thousand-year history. Visitors can admire the remains of a Roman villa from the 1st century BC, including an ancient water mill built in the 19th century which remained in operation until the 1960s. Today the waterfalls have much to offer - visitors can take walks in the woods, explore scenic routes and stop in special picnic areas along the river banks. Naturally, the park's conservation and management regulations do not allow bathing.\nThe Monte Gelato Waterfalls are easily accessible from Rome and other nearby cities. It is possible to start from Mazzano Romano, a charming medieval village located nearby and then follow the various marked paths. Access to the site is completely free and can be visited every day from 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM all year round - in the Summer to escape the suffocating heat of the city or Autumn to immerse yourself in the magical spectacle of the foliage.
