I would recommend this course as it really helped to dispel myths and preconceived ideas. SRtRC staff in Wales are delighted to be delivering Equality training to staff at Newport City Council as part of their staff development training programme. We successfully tendered to deliver their on-going Equalities training programme for the next 12 months, with one course per month. The half-day training sessions are focused on the Equality Act 2010 and how to apply it as an employee and when dealing with members of the public who access services. So far, we have delivered 4 sessions as part of the organisations proactive commitment to creating a positive working environment and improving their customers’ experience. One of the key elements of the training was breaking down the stereotypes that persist around people with certain protected characteristics and how these can lead to prejudice. Each of the delegates received a comprehensive training pack at the end of the course for future reference. There have been some fantastic discussions and debates as part of the course in a safe, non-judgemental environment. The feedback from the delegates at the end of the course has been outstanding with 100% of delegates rating the content and usefulness as Excellent or Very Good. We are looking forward to delivering the remaining courses in the partnership and will continue to improve the course. For more information about our equality training or any other training we provide email –ian@theredcardwales.org or call 029 2035 1616.

Without climate change mitigation policies, half of the world could face extreme water scarcity before the end of the century, a study has found. However, researchers from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) also warned that poorly planned policies could exacerbate the crisis. The study, which was carried out with the help of the Joint Global Change Research Institute, is comprehensive and used unique modelling technology. The model linked economic, energy, land-use and climate systems to demonstrate impacts on water scarcity. The findings show that without any climate policy to curb carbon greenhouse gas emissions, half of the world could be living with extreme water scarcity by 2095. The scientists also found that some climate policies could make water scarcity worse, such as increasing the use of biofuels, which require a lot of water to grow. Mohamad Hejazi, lead author and climate scientist at PNNL, said, “All high-resolution global integrated assessment models lack any representation of water systems. The researchers explained that factoring in water scarcity is vital when considering climate change policies, because many technology strategies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions rely on plentiful water. As a result, availability could impose severe limits on both emissions mitigation and climate adaption. Previous studies have also warned of the risks around climate change and water resources. One study predicted that a changing climate could put 40% more people across the world at risk of water scarcity because of changes in rainfall and evaporation.

Plot: Summer 2018. As the tension between Greece and Turkey escalates, a big earthquake brings a small island to the surface of the Aegean sea. Both Greeks and Turks rush in to conquer the island, but since none of the countries wish to disrupt the summer, both sides are left alone on the island.

Which of the following is an influence on a person's political beliefs and ideology. All of the other answers. A person's political beliefs, being multifaceted and complicated, are shaped by a variety of factors, including religious background, education, employment history, and income level. In fact, almost anything, from homeownership to family size, has a direct influence on a person's voting behavior and political involvement. Which of these election issues is most likely to demonstrate a gender gap in voting? The issue of gun ownership and gun rights is most likely to create a massive gender gap in the pattern of voting. Women are generally against gun ownership, whereas men are generally in favor of it; of course, this is a broad generalization. Perhaps surprisingly, there is a small, but not massive, gender gap on issues such as women’s rights and gay rights. Followers of which of these religions are most likely to have liberal attitudes in contemporary America? Followers of Judaism are by far the most likely religious group in contemporary America to have liberal opinions on issues and to vote for liberal candidates. The religious right, predominantly Southern Protestants, are the most likely group to vote conservatively on issues. Which of these statements about the gender gap is true? Men are less likely to support foreign intervention by the United States military. Women are more likely to support gun ownership rights. Women are more likely to support increased social spending. Women are more likely to vote for reducing government involvement in higher education. Men are more likely to support prohibition of drugs or alcohol. "Gender gap," refers to the consistent differences between the voting patterns of men and women. For example, women are much more likely to vote for increased restrictions on gun ownership. Women are also, particularly in contemporary times, less likely to vote conservative than men. The only statement above that is true is that women are more likely to support an increase in government spending on social welfare. African-American voters have recently been more likely to support __________. African-American votes have shown a strong tendency in recent years to support Democratic Party candidates who lean heavily to the left. Unlike white Democratic Party voters, who are more likely to support a moderate candidate. Women are currently more likely than men to support all of the following issues EXCEPT __________. Women are more likely to support all of these issues. There is a growing gender gap in American politics. To oversimplify, women are more likely to vote Democratic and support liberal positions on economic and social issues, while men are more likely to vote Republican and support conservative positions on economic and social issues. The greatest gender gap can be evidenced in the large majority of women who favor major restrictions on gun ownerships, versus far fewer men. Which of these statements about the voting gender gap is most true? In recent elections women have been much more likely than men to vote for the Democratic Party. Men vote roughly equally for Republicans and Democrats, whereas women’s voting patterns change dramatically every election cycle. Men are more likely to vote for gun ownership rights, whereas women are more likely to vote for decreased role of government. Men are more likely to support affirmative action to encourage racial and social equality. In recent elections women have been much less likely than men to vote for the Democratic Party. Since the 1980 election, there has been a very clear voting pattern in American general elections, where women are much more likely than men to vote for a candidate from the Democratic Party. The two largest gender discrepancies in American history have occurred during the successful elections of Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. Men are more likely to vote for gun ownership rights, but men are also more likely to vote for a decreased role of government. Women are more likely to support affirmative action to encourage racial and social equality. The term, Solid South, historically refers to __________. The term, Solid South, was historically used, from the end of the Civil War until the middle of the 1960s, to refer to the fact that the South almost always voted for the Democratic Party. This was born, in part, out of the South’s response to the Republican party’s northern associations during the Civil War and its aftermath. These days, the "Solid South" could just as easily be applied to the fact that the South very consistently votes Republican. Fiscal conservatives favor which of the following? Modern fiscal conservatives favor reducing spending, reducing taxation and regulation, lowering national debt, and lowering and balancing budgets. John Locke wrote in the Second Treatise on Government (1689) that “Whoever has the…supreme power…is bound to govern by established standing laws," reinforcing the idea that? This question is designed to test reading skills as well as subject knowledge. John Locke wrote extensively about the legitimacy of government as well as ways in which it should operate. All information needed is contained within the question. Locke is clearly stating his views regarding a rulers place within the law.

WWF Australia is asking you to make your voice heard and help them tell the Australian government that their Strategic Assessment for Perth must be used to protect the endangered species that call this area home. With it’s huge range of animals and plants that can only be found in this South West corner of Western Australia, it is imperative that this area of bushland is preserved. The wetland system in south Perth is one of the most important area for waterbirds in the whole of Australia, giving home to some of the countries most unique animals and plants. Between 2001 to 2009, bushland in Perth has been cleared at a rate of over ten cricket fields a week and it needs to stop before it becomes too late.

Brief Synopsis – An intimate view of how one of the most influential men in the world advises the President of the US. My Take on it – Having always been fascinated by the Presidency and its history, I knew I had to see this as soon as I heard about it. This documentary interviews all 20 living presidential chiefs of staff and gives us an insider’s perspective on many of the pivotal presidential decisions and events over the past 50 years. This movie clocks in at close to 3 hours and despite it telling us so much about the events depicted, it is still clear that they dont even scratch the surface of the position of the president’s right hand man. For any fan of US history and the Presidency, there are so many interesting facts of the behind the scenes action in some of the most pivotal events facing the Presidency since the 1960’s. Bottom Line – Amazing movie that chronicles some of the most powerful events in US history over the last 50 years. Despite its length, it doesn’t even come close to being as comprehensive as it could be. Has some great behind the scenes information about the Presidency and its decisions over the years. Highly recommended!

Plastipak, an international producer of plastic bottles, has extended its lease of industrial and administrative space in hall 12. Plastipak has been active on the Czech market for 9 years and has been successfully operating from Business Park Rudná for the same amount of time.

Energy positive means that the solar panels on the roof of the vehicle can actually produce more energy than the vehicle consumes while driving. To achieve positive energy output, Solar Team Eindhoven designed the Stella Lux to be extremely aerodynamic and used lightweight materials such as carbon fiber and aluminium. The vehicle is also equipped with a battery pack. When the solar panels are producing more electricity than the vehicle needs, the energy is stored in the battery pack to increase the range of the vehicle. Later this month, the team will put the Stella to the test through the World Solar Challenge. Solar Team Eindhoven will compete in the Cruiser Class and travel 3000 km (1864 miles) from Darwin to Adelaide through the desert of Australia. Teams participating in the “Cruiser Class” can only charge their battery packs once along the trip, meaning that they must travel 1500 km (930 miles) only on solar energy and a full battery pack. The team will need to reach seven checkpoints along the way and they are only allowed to travel between 8am and 5pm. Solar Team Eindhoven won the competition in 2013 and now they are defending their tittle with the new and improved Stella Lux. You can follow their progress on Twitter via @SolarEHV.

The yellow belly turtle is one of the many turtle species out there. Generally this type of turtle is found in the Eastern United States, but, is also found in the UK. They have different names according to the region including Slider and Yellow Bellied Terrapin. Its scientific name or Latin name is Trachemys scripta elegans. Female yellow bellied turtles are normally larger than the males thus making it a bit easier when identifying the gender of these animals. The adult males are generally in a range between about 5 to 8 inches long while the adult females are around 8 to 13 inches long. This particular species can live for 100 years and up, especially when properly cared for. Their average lifespan is currently around 25 years or so. Yellow bellied turtles, eating habits vary depending on the age and their environment. These turtles are omnivorous. In the case of young turtles, they tend to feed more on meat as the protein is important for early development. As they age and grow to become adults vegetation tends to become their preference. Some of the varieties of things they feed on are amphibian larvae, snails, insect larvae, fish fry and small crustaceans along with the land and water plants. In addition to these things, crickets, meal worms, wax worms, blood worms, and daphnia are also a nice addition to their pallet. Keeping a Yellow Belly Turtle as a pet requires a bit of focus on their diet. Providing them with commercial food is generally enough, but a variety surely would be appreciated. Serving some meat and fish in small portions and on occasion is good for them as there are a lot of nutrients in them. Veggies and commercial food will be fine to fill the remaining gap. Adult males are normally more carnivorous and adult females are more herbivorous. It is an aquatic freshwater turtle species and hence normally prefers to live in warmer waters found in the UK. Even though they are good at swimming, they want to spend most of their time by basking in the sun on logs and rocks for relaxation. These turtles are normally social, but can still bite. If bitten, there is no danger as the turtles don’t have any poison but you may have a sore finger. Small groups of turtles can be kept together. But, it is necessary to consider the size of tank and filtration systems. As they grow, they will produce more waste and require more space to exercise as well as have their own place for basking. If you are planning to have multiple turtles, a custom setup would be the best choice. It is important to keep this in mind, imaging if you had kept the same shirt or pair of shoes from when you were 12 years old. Some final thoughts on the habitat are: size of the tank, diet, lighting, water filtration and climate. Adding decor such as live pond plants can be very good not just from an asthetics point of view but also from a filtration standpoing as well as maybe a snack too. You can see a few different types in our turtle habitat section. The young turtles can be easily consumed by herons, big fish and large turtles. This is due to the imbalanced shell, which doesn’t close all the way. But, in the case of adults it provides little protection from the mammalian predators including domestic dogs, raccoon’s and foxes.

Concept: Wind cool your car faster. Detail: One of the prime effects of wind is to lower the temperature of an object...including that of your car's engine...to the air temperature at a much faster rate, therefore, if the temperature of the air is zero degrees on a calm night, your car will cool down relatively slow. However, with a 40 mph wind howling, the car's engine will cool to zero degrees at a rate appropriate to a temperature of -30�F (in calm air). Thus, while it cannot cool below 0�F, it can get there much faster. The bottom line? Either be sure to get your car in a garage, have a dip tick heater, or plan to make several extra trips outside to start your car up and warm the engine during the night. In winter...what joy...running outside into a cold car at 3:00 A.M. just to war it up! And windy nights are the worst!

I love rain. I live for rainy days, constantly checking the 10-day forecast for even the slightest of chances. It has been pouring down rain in Lubbock since yesterday. Most of the streets are flooded because a drainage system in Lubbock doesn't exist. Even though the driving has been frustrating, it's been a lot of fun! We never get this much rain!! how frustrating! Maybe ya'll can bust out some umbrellas and galoshes and get some cute pictures of you hanging out in the rain? hope it all works out! Too bad the rain comes on the exact weekend for planned outdoor activities. I think all will work out even so. Have tons of fun.

One of the drawbacks of living in London (and most other major metropolises) is that the ambient light from the buildings, street lamps, etc, make it impossible to see the stars in the sky at night. So when designer Oscar Lhermitte applied to the London chapter of the Awesome Foundation, of which I am a proud trustee, with the proposal “to recreate the missing stars in London”, we knew we had something Awesome to consider. Oscar’s The Big Dipper project is an ongoing project which uses a combination of balloons, LEDs, and various control mechanisms to recreate stars and constellations in the night time sky over London. He presented his project at the Awesome Foundation London award ceremony earlier this month along with four other strong contenders, and at the end of the evening, walked away with the Awesome Fellowship to advance his work. If you were unable to make it to the awards, you can see his presentation here on slideshare, and view his video overview of the project below on vimeo here. Congratulations to Oscar for an inspiring and Awesome idea.

Talking about women like this is considered normal. Talking about another man’s wife like this is considered a compliment – to the man. Talking about a woman as though she is an object there to please a man is normal conversation. This is Malta – and I can’t even say we’re stuck in the 19th century, because back then if you had said in public or anywhere else that another man’s wife is worth a f**k, you would find yourself at the wrong end of a gun. And if you said it about a senior figure’s wife, you would probably find yourself behind bars. As for the rest, we’re stuck firmly in the 19th century.

282 pp., ISBN: 978-1-933251-44-8, Softcover. $24.95. Climb every mountain... or fifty state highpoints. Douglas Butler set out on a quest - a long-held dream - to hike, trek or climb to the highest geographical point of each state. His, however, was not a rushed excursion from state summit to state summit instead a journey of discovery along “blue highways” and secondary roads, exploring our nation and meeting its people. He carried a journal and camera along with an innate curiosity and love of adventure. A Walk Atop America - Fifty State Summits and a Dream to Reach Them All details that journey. In this book, author Douglas Butler vividly describes the challenges he faced trying to reach each state’s highest point, difficulties that ranged from blizzards and forest fires to obtaining permission from private landowners and forest service managers. He also recounts the people he met, the sites visited and the events that made this a life-changing adventure. Twenty-four black-and-white photographs and eight pages of color images taken by the author, an award-winning photographer, complement the text. Write Your Personalization in the Order Notes. The fifty state summits vary greatly in popularity, accessibility and difficulty. Four million people stand atop Tennessee’s Clingmans Dome each year - many without realizing that this Great Smoky Mountains attraction is a state highpoint - while hundreds of thousands of tourists reach Mt. Washington’s windy summit annually. Florida’s state highpoint is a sandy knoll, Delaware’s a street intersection. Yet state summits such as Mt. McKinley, also known as Denali (20,320 feet), Mt. Rainier (14,410 feet) and Mt. Hood (11,239 feet) challenge even the most experienced mountaineers. Thousands of “highpointers,” as these hikers and climbers call themselves, are members of the The Highpointers Club. However, reaching all fifty state summits is not easy. Since 1966 when John Hoeman became the first “completer,” fewer than 170 individuals have stood atop each of the fifty states. Douglas Butler is an adventure travel writer and award-winning photographer whose hiking, trekking and climbing journeys have taken him to five continents. A love of people, sensitivity to native cultures and joy in exploring remote and pristine areas are shared through his prose and photography, work that has appeared in numerous regional and national publications. He has also published Ashe County - Discovering the Lost Province, a book about the North Carolina mountain region he calls home. An emergency and family medicine physician, Dr. Butler continues to work with underserved populations on American Indian reservations.

In my old Honda Civic the high beams would come on every time it rained. Whether I was in the car or not. If it rained overnight, I would come out of the house to a dead battery. I never could figure out what caused it, so eventually I put a quick-release clamp on one of the terminals and started disconnecting the battery every night.

Shake your sillies, play games, and indulge in funny movies with your kids. A team of French scientists has discovered that using humor appears to help toddlers learn new tasks, reports a new study in the journal Cognition and Emotion. Building on the knowledge that making older children laugh can enhance many aspects of cognition, Rana Esseily and her colleagues designed an experiment to see whether using humor could also have an effect on the ability of infants to learn. Each of the 18-month-olds selected to participate in the final part of the study observed an adult using a tool to grab an out-of-reach toy. In one group the adult simply played with the toy after retrieving it; but in the other group, the adult threw the toy immediately on the floor, which made half the children in that group laugh. When Esseily and her colleagues studied their data, they found that the children who laughed at the antics of the adults were able to repeat the action themselves more successfully than those who didn’t laugh, as well as those who were included in the ‘humorless’ control group. Parents such as myself, about to embark on the un-funny business of toilet training might want to keep laughing – no matter what!!

This paper proposes a new algorithm that is able to smoothly and realistically transit the scene from one viewpoint to another in the panorama based navigation system. The proposed algorithm is divided into two steps: one is the prewarping that aligns the viewing direction in two panorama images, and the other is the bidirectional disparity morphing(BDM) that generates the intermediate scene with the prewarped panorama images. In the prewarping, we first analyze the phase relation of two images using the fast Fourier transform (FFT), and then compute the scale, the rotational movement, and the translation between two images. These information make two images to be aligned. In the BDM, we estimate the block based disparity vector (DV) and use two occluding patterns in order to correct the DV for the occluded block. We make an experiment on the proposed algorithm with the panorama images and as a result, the user can move naturally from one panorama image to another.

Frank Spiteri on the days final climb. Photo by Loren Henry. “A stage for the sprinters” is how Columbia Hills Road Race, Stage 1 of the 2011 Mt. Hood Cycling Classic was advertised to us. As soon as we hit the first climb of the day, it was obvious that this was not going to be the case. With me sitting at 12th overall after the prologue, and Jesse Miller-Smith our obvious choice for GC leader, the two of us went into the stage as the protected riders. The team did a great job cover attacks, helping each other bridge across any missed splits, and some even sacrificing themselves as water carriers. A few miles before the final big climb of the stage, some riders countered a move by Lunner and I jumped on. I did what I could to drive the pace of the break to establish a sizeable gap before hitting the base of the climb. We hit the bottom of the climb with a 1:20 gap on the chasing field. Nearing the top of the 7-mile climb, Nate English, who had attacked out of the peloton, caught and passed our group like we were sitting still. At this point, I knew Jesse would be coming from behind shortly. Once I was able to see Jesse from behind, realizing he wouldn’t be able to make it onto the back of our group before the top of the climb, I dropped off the back of the lead group and waited for Jesse’s group to catch me. As soon as he made contact, I drilled it as hard as I could on the descent to bring Jesse up to the leaders. Finally by the bottom of the grade, we were on the front group which was now about 30 riders. Our split was able to stay away to the finish line, where I was able to sprint for 5th place on the day. For me it was more exciting to cross the line knowing that our tactics had worked, and we had placed two riders in the front split, including our team GC leader Jesse.

Many people who have been infected with HIV display no signs and symptoms of the infection. The only way to confirm an HIV infection is by doing an HIV test. HIV testing can be done in Sexual health clinics (Genito Urinary Medicine Clinics), contraception and young people’s clinics, or antenatal clinics for pregnant women. An HIV test requires the collection of a blood sample from the individual under test. Though the HIV test can be done using a saliva or urine sample, a standard blood test is a must for confirmation of the infection. HIV test results must be confirmed with a follow up test to avoid the chances of false positives as well as false negatives. Once an individual gets exposed to an HIV infection, he may take a few weeks to a few months to develop antibodies. This period is called the window period. During this period, an HIV test shows negative results for antibodies even when the patient has an HIV infection. It is important to remember that patient can transmit the virus to others at this stage. ELISA is a test that detects the presence of antibodies, which are developed by the immune system to fight against HIV, in the blood (serum). ELISA is a highly sensitive test i.e. it detects the antibodies even if they are very few in number. But there are chances that the test might a give false positive result. This makes it necessary that a positive ELISA test be confirmed by another HIV test like the Western Blot or Indirect Immunofluorescence Assay. During the window period of the infection, the test gives negative results. For this reason, in case of a negative result the first time, the ELISA test should be repeated after 1- 3 months before ruling out the infection. Western blot is an HIV test similar to ELISA. It detects antibodies in the serum sample. It is used to double check the results of a positive ELISA test. In this HIV test, HIV proteins are separated and immobilized. If the patient’s serum has anti-HIV antibodies, they bind to the immobilized antigen. This indicates a positive test result that can be visualized in an electrified slab of gel. PCR detects the genetic material of HIV. A PCR test gives a positive result sooner than an antibody test, usually within two to three weeks of infection. It is expensive but more specific or definitive. Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR), branched DNA (bDNA), and Nucleic Acid Sequence-Based Amplification assay (NASBA) are some of the PCR tests that measure HIV viral load in the blood. The basic principle here is to detect HIV using DNA sequences that bind specifically to those in the virus. This test is also used to monitor treatment. The viral load test should be done two to four weeks after starting treatment, then every four to eight weeks. If the treatment is effective, the viral load should decrease to undetectable levels in the blood. This test is highly reliable during the early stages of exposure to HIV, around the time the antibody tests appear negative. This test is used for diagnosis as well as monitoring treatment. An antigen of HIV named P 24 is detected by ELISA Techniques, using monoclonal antibodies (synthesized antibodies) that bind specifically to P 24. The antigen detection test is not generally used for diagnosis as it is not very sensitive and is effective only before the patient starts developing anti-p24 antibodies. Rapid tests detect antibodies in the blood or saliva much faster than other tests, often within 20 minutes or so. They work on the same principle as other antibody tests. It is important to remember that the results of rapid tests have to be confirmed with a different follow up test. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved a home test called the Home Access Express Test (the Home Access HIV-1 Test System). This test requires you to prick your finger with a special needle, put a few drops of blood on a collection card, and mail the card to a laboratory. In about a week, you can get the results of the test by calling a toll-free number specified by the USFDA. This test is used to measure the count of CD4 cells in the blood. HIV destroys CD4 cells during the course of the infection. When the cell count falls below 200, HIV progresses to AIDS. CD4 count ranges from 500 to 1000 cells per cubic millimetre of blood, in a normal healthy individual. If the CD4 cell count is below this range, it could indicate an HIV infection. This blood test is used to determine whether the HIV strain is resistant to the anti-HIV medications that are prescribed. It also helps the physician decide which medication may be more effective for treatment. When HIV has progressed to AIDS, the doctor might recommend certain tests to check for other infections or complications, including tuberculosis, hepatitis, sexually transmitted diseases, toxoplasmosis, urinary tract infections, and liver or kidney damage. The home HIV test has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. In addition to the tests listed above, here are some of the other tests that are used to monitor the health of the patient. Complete Blood Count Test – It is performed to measure the count of white and red blood cells, hemoglobin, and platelets and to check for anemia and other blood-related conditions. Blood Chemistry Tests – They are used to measure the levels of sodium, potassium, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and albumin in the blood. Urine Tests – These are done to check for abnormal kidney function and for infections. Diagnosing an HIV infection at its early stages is very important to start medication. This can delay the progression of HIV to AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome). For this reason, an HIV test must be done at the earliest when an HIV infection is suspected.

The course covers topics from the recent developments in high-frequency econometrics. We will review the econometrics of non-parametric estimation of the variation of asset prices. This very active literature has been stimulated by the recent advent of complete records of transaction prices, quote data and order books. The interaction of the new data sources with new econometrics methodology is leading to a paradigm shift in one of the most important areas in econometrics: Volatility measurement, modeling and forecasting using high-frequency data. Careful data cleaning is one of the most important aspects of volatility estimation from high-frequency data. The most challenging problem in this context is dealing with various forms of market frictions, which obscure the latent price from the econometrician. We will characterize types of statistical models of friction and discuss how econometricians have been attempting to overcome them. The main data focus will be on the TAQ data base.

What You Need to Know When it Comes to Motorcycle Helmets The main purpose motorcycle helmets is to protect the head from injuries or trauma that it can obtain in case an accident happens. In earlier times, a lot of people do not like to use helmets due to the fact that they were not really that good looking and stylish. Nonetheless, the advancements made with technology, as well as the latest sleek designs caused more people to wear helmets these days. Moreover, motorcycles are also not complete if not coupled with helmets. There are different shapes and styles when it pertains to motorcycle helmets and they are full lace, bell, scorpion and flip-up. A flip-up type helmet was made so that riders can properly communicate with others without the need to raise his or her entire helmet. By pushing a certain button, the thin plastic shield that it contains will raise and the face will be shown as a result. There are a lot of riders who consider this particular kind of helmet as very useful, especially when they are greeting each other as a sort of tradition that they follow. Another type of helmet is the full-lace which is commonly made of aluminum even though there are other materials that are also used to construct it. Since the design of this type of helmet comes with modern bells and whistles, it also more expensive than the others. The design of this particular helmet is an oval shape which can make the face fir perfectly. You can even wear this kind of helmet for a long period of time without being annoyed or feeling uncomfortable because it has a brow and face ventilation. Moreover, the face shield it has can also protect the rider from UV rays and can help in having a better vision for driving. It cannot be denied that most riders are having fogging problems that occurs when they breath while they are driving. Thus, if you want to prevent fogging in your helmet, you must use the full-face type because it contains removable breath guards.

Churns are structures in the game which allow you to make Butter and Cheese. To make a churn, combine a piece of wood with a bucket. Place a bucket of milk inside the churn to make Butter and Cheese. You must double click the churn 30 times to make butter, and 50 times to make cheese.

Compared with seamless pipes, high frequency welded pipes are characterized by high continuity, high efficiency and low cost. At the same time, the production of raw material strip is developing rapidly, and the proportion of welded pipes in the whole pipe is increasing. The production of high frequency welded pipe mill line has the characteristics of no pollution and low noise, and does not produce waste water and waste gas. Circulating water cooling is used in production, which is energy-saving, environmental protection and labor-saving. Only 5-8 people are needed for one shift. In application, with the improvement of weld quality and non-destructive testing reliability of welded pipe, the use of welded pipe is more and more widely. It replaces seamless pipe in more fields and uses. High frequency welding can not only improve the welding speed, but also obtain small heat affected zone and good burn-through weld. In terms of quality, the high frequency welded pipe mill line has the advantages of good weld quality, small internal and external burrs, high welding speed and low power consumption, which can be widely used and promoted. High-frequency welded pipe unit can normally produce round pipes, while also square and rectangular pipes are produced. Because square and rectangular pipes have large section modulus, can withstand greater bending force, can save a lot of metal, save processing time and reduce the weight of components, etc., so they are widely used in industry and agriculture area. For the maintenance of high frequency welded pipe mill line, we should learn three points as below. First of all, in the process of use, we must strictly operate according to the operating procedures in the instruction manual, not to overload and operate the machine. And we have to check the machinery before complaining about production or mechanical operation. Whether the parts can work normally, whether there is any fault, only when the various parts and indicators of the machine are normal, the machine can be started up and put into production, otherwise it will cause mechanical loss. Secondly, after checking all parts of the high pipe mill line, we should start running again. In the process of production, we should ensure the stability of the temperature and production condition of the mill line equipment. If the equipment fails, we must stop production and check which part of the mill line is out of order to avoid causing greater losses. The main faults include the unstable operation of mill line, the grinding of equipment, and whether there are abnormal noises in the operation process. If there are any problems, they should be checked in time. Thirdly, after the mill line has been used for a period of time, we should pay attention to the regular lubrication and cleaning of the mill line to ensure its cleanliness. Only in this way can the machine run normally and be more portable in its production. For the aging parts of the mill line, we must replace them in time to ensure that the whole line can run normally at any time.

While it is one of the most important milestones in your life, planning your marriage is sure to be one the most taxing events ever. It is true that there are wedding planners who can organize the entire event from beginning to end but there are still things that need your opinion; from the interior decoration to the outfit that needs to be designed for the bridesmaid. There is also the problem of a high living cost that makes people try to cut down the overall cost of weddings which means most couples tend to avoid hiring wedding planners and instead organize the whole event by themselves. On paper it does seem like an overwhelming event and it actually with the potential for multiple things to go wrong but by planning ahead and developing a basic idea of how the process is supposed to go, you can take steps and measures to ensure the event finishes flawlessly. The first course of action should be to finalize the guest list. Most people would call you out reasoning that it is premature but many decisions regarding the wedding depend on the guest list. For an instance the amount of guests you are planning to invite will help you decide on suitable wedding location and also help you finalize the quantity of the meals. Pay attention to the location of the venue. Think about the distance for the majority of the people and plan the venue accordingly. On the same leaf, you should keep in mind that not everyone you invite is bound to come to the wedding. You can make a rough estimate by thinking carefully about each person and the likelihood of him or her making it to the wedding. Many miss out on weddings due to work commitments, sickness or that the distance might be too long. While it is understandable that you might want to do everything by yourself to keep down costs, a wedding stylist is absolutely necessary to ensure you are looking your best at your memorable moment. An amateur stylist or your best friend will not be able to replicate the professional look that you desire especially in an event of such a magnitude. Music is an absolute necessity at any wedding. One of the easiest ways to up the prevailing atmosphere present in the party, it does not matter if you have a band playing on stage or you are just playing music from your smartphone. It is important though that you play music that goes along with the mood and the type of guests you are inviting.

Women in STEM Brewing has become a vast, technical, automated process and in doing so offers huge opportunities for STEM students to create a unique career. We hear from two women working at one of the world's largest drinks producers, Diageo. "I work in the fermentation brewing plant as a process brewer, looking after the maturation and the clarification of the beer. It is a large-scale process, the opposite of craft beer, and fully automated, so I am also responsible for the cleaning and hygiene of the plant, and I control the intake of chemicals used to clean the plant. People tend to think my job is just sitting stirring a pot of Guinness! "After my education, I joined as an intern, went on to work in the science lab and am now a brewer, as there are so many opportunities for career progression. People tend to think my job is on a smaller scale than it is: they think I’m sitting stirring a pot of Guinness! But everything is automated. "In my daily life, no two days are the same; each is unique. We start with a handover from the previous team, which is the most important part, as it sets you up for the day. We talk to the different departments, such as engineering, so it’s a social role too. "Organising decisions is a priority, as is problem solving. For example, at 4am, a piece of plant equipment may stop working. We use root cause analysis and root cause problem solving to boost our efficiency and I am currently doing a Master of Tasting course. "The coolest thing about the job is that the brewery is iconic, and we distribute to 150 countries so, no matter where I go in the world, people know the brand. The scale is such that we brew over three million pints of Guinness a day." "I am an apprentice instrumentation electrician, traditionally a male-dominated role, which involves commissioning, testing and maintaining various systems. I shadow a qualified electrician to know what to expect in my future career. People immediately think of the stereotype: changing light sockets. "When people hear I’m an electrician, they think of the stereotype: changing light sockets in a domestic setting. It is a biased view, completely different from what I actually do, which is to control the whole process of brewing from brew to ferment to keg. All the plants I work in are completely different and my job involves recording temperature, pressure and so on. When we are walking around the plants, part of the job is to check that there are no breakdowns and the process can be continued. "It’s an exciting role. I start the day with a morning meeting and we have a long list to go through, assigning jobs for the day. Then I go to the relevant plant to work on the system, checking temperature, calibrations and pressure flow. When I am calibrating temperature, there are two of us: one on the plant floor and a second upstairs on a computer to bring up the details of the machine we are working on. We calibrate at varying temperatures and record the measurements. If a machine breaks down we get it up and running again, although it’s a temporary fix. "The apprenticeship also involves going to college. The best part of the job is that that the company is a huge part of Irish history and I’m part of that."

Steaming is a great way to cook a whole fish and capture the unique tastes a given species has to offer. Pro tip – the juice from your steamed fish is perfect for pouring over rice. Rinse fish with cold water and pat dry. Salt and pepper the inside and outside of the fish and add half the sliced ginger to the stomach. Prepare your steamer. Fill a large pot with an inch of water, and place a heatproof plate in the middle. Place fish on the plate. If you need to trim the tail off the fish to make it fit, that’s fine. Place the rest of the ginger on top of the fish. Bring water to a boil over high heat, then lower to medium heat (a steady simmer). Cover pot with a tight lid and steam for 8 minutes or until the fish flakes away from the bones easily with a fork. Carefully remove fish from steamer and place on a large plate or platter. Top with scallions. Heat neutral oil until it shimmers, then pour gently over the scallions and fish. Pour soy sauce over that. Serve with rice or by itself.

It got up to 65F today, which is actually warmer than it got in Vista, California, and a record for this date. However, a cold front is moving into the area, so the temperature is expected to keep falling all night and all day tomorrow, finally dropping to about 10F Thursday morning. Yikes.

C3 is a rationally designed buckminsterfullerene derivative of about 1 nanometer in diameter that can be used as a catalytic antioxidant and as a neuroprotective agent. It is non-toxic, water soluble and many times more powerful than the most active natural antioxidants, such as Vitamin C or Vitamin E. C3 is not a nanoparticle. It is similar in size to other small molecule drugs with a molecular size less than 1 nanometer. Nearly all of the drugs that are currently used to treat CNS diseases are either limited in effectiveness or do not work. Many have unpleasant side effects or can produce their own immune responses, which greatly limit or impair what little effectiveness they have. C3 is an ongoing therapeutic treatment designed to prevent further damage or deterioration of tissue. C3 has also been shown to be effective in the treatment of inflammation.

Introducing non-native species into Kentucky waters can upset the balance of the ecosystem, thereby harming the environment. Aquatic nuisance species, such as zebra mussels, quagga mussels, milfoil, and hydrilla, most often spread between waterways by hitching a ride on vessels and trailers. When transplanted into new waters, these organisms proliferate, displacing native species and damaging the water resource.

Does anyone have a method to systematically visit all systems in a Sector? I would like to help with the search for a suitable planet to act as a hub for Sol Invictus as describe by RAM in the Politics Forum. However, I find that trying to systematically survey all the systems in a Sector to be impossible. I have only surveyed my own systems up to now, but if we want exploration to be a viable 'career' for pilots, then I would think that a method to do a systematic survey of a Sector would be vital. I start at the bottom of the sector and work my way up. Seems to make it easy to see and jumping within the sector doesn't take a lot of fuel.

The ancient oasis city of Palmyra was one of the most important cultural centres of the ancient world, but now bears the scars violence and looting. – AFP pic, March 17, 2014.Syria's fabled desert Greco-Roman oasis of Palmyra saw its last tourist in September 2011, six months after the uprising began. Its most recent visitors are violence and looting. The Unesco-listed "pearl of the desert" world heritage site in Homs province, just over 200km northeast of Damascus, was one of the most important cultural centres of the ancient world.

In front of us there is Zijlroede bridge over the channel in the city of Lemmer, which is located on the shores of the artificial freshwater lake of IJsselmeer. It was created at the beginning of the last century on the place of the former Zuiderzee Bay as part of a comprehensive plan of the land reclamation of the country. Lemmer, with a population of only 10 thousand people, is the largest water sports center in the whole of Friesland province. There is a World Heritage Site, Ir.DF Woudagemaal steam pumping station open almost a hundred years ago, and today it is the largest operating plant of this type. On the camera, we see the entrance to Schirm Lemmer B.V. clothing store. Basically business suits of prestigious European brands are sold here. We can say that this is a typical pattern of a Dutch urban road: cyclists are in priority, there are very few cars, and the active life of water transport can be seen on the channels adjacent to the road.

One of the major problems that modern materialistic civilization faces is that of diminishing resources. How and from where to get more for the ever hungry world? Will the civilization die off for want of resources? Can we (the West) maintain our position if the earth’s belly is emptied?

As both a recreational sport and thrilling adventure scuba diving is the best way to exploring the enchanting underwater world and enjoy in an unforgettable experience. To ensure you fully enjoy your scuba diving experience and safely explore and discover the beauties and hidden treasures of the mysterious and captivating ocean proper equipment is essential. In this article we will go through all the thing you should consider before you buy scuba gear in Australia and what are the essential accessories you will need to have a great start at this amazing sport. First things first before you hit the stores or search the online shops to buy scuba gear in Australia, it is important to determine the diving conditions, will you be diving at night or during the day? Make a list of all the features you want your scuba gear to have and when shopping take you time and compare prices and specific features like size and material. When it comes to quality and affordable price in this case it is essential to make a purchase from a reliable retailer. You would probably want something that will not only be efficient but long-lasting as well. Size is one of the features that plays a major role I terms of efficiency. Your equipment should not only be comfortable and suit your body shape, but also provide the necessary protection. Therefore make sure you choose tools and accessories that will best fit you and are made from durable and high-quality materials. When talking about scuba diving accessories and tools let's take a look at some of the essential equipment pieces that any diver should have. A quality scuba mask should be at the top of your shopping list just because it has a great influence on the overall diving experience. A high-quality mask allows you to see clearly when exploring the vivid marine life while protecting your eyes at the same time. It should be comfortable to wear and seal properly around your head. As an important part of the safety scuba gear snorkels function as an efficient breathing tool that can save divers from many dangerous situations and allow them to dive a little bit longer. It is best to get snorkels that feature a purge valve on the bottom that is designed to keep the snorkel clean and make diving a much more enjoyable experience. Choosing the right suit is essential for having comfortable and safe dives. Probably the most important feature to look out for is the suit's thickness. Wet suits are quite thin ideal for diving in warm water, however these will not keep you warm in colder conditions. The best option when diving in colder water is to get a combination of dry suit with an undersuit.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one out of every three individuals aged 65 or older will fall at least each year. Unfortunately, this can lead to broken bones, head trauma and other injuries. While a fall can occur anywhere within a home, they commonly occur in bathrooms. This is because it can be hard to get in and out of a bathtub, a floor can be slippery when wet, or their legs give out after sitting on the toilet. It can be nerve wracking to have an elderly parent living on their own. However, there are things that can be done to make the bathroom safer for them. Here are three ways a bathroom can be made safer for your elderly parent or parents who live on their own.

At the end of the tour, participants will travel on a small motor boat down the Lemene River to Concordia Sagittaria. There they will disembark and visit the Municipal Museum, before continuing the guided tour on foot along the archaeological trail through the ancient Roman colony. At the end of the guided tour, there will be a chance to sample local products during a tasting session.

You may think that buying a home air conditioner is simple, but there are more things to consider than just the size and the horsepower. First, you have to consider the size of the room the you want to cool and the air conditioner. If the air conditioner is too small, it may not be able to cool the space. On the other hand, if it is too large, it will cool the room so fast that the unit’s built-in thermostat will shut the air conditioner down before it can adjust the room’s humidity. It may result to a cool room that feels damp or clammy. There are also other details that you have to consider such as the installation type, potability, available settings, chassis type, and BTU output. The BTU is probably one detail that is often overlooked. Room air conditioners are measured according to the capacity to cool a given space and it is expressed in BTU per hour. BTUs determine how much cold air comes out of the unit. Problems occur when the air conditioner is oversized for the space. The more cold air that comes out of the air conditioning unit, the more space it will need to circulate. For an Air Conditioner How Many BTU? Cold air bouncing off walls because of the small space gives the thermostat a false reading. You may be asking now how much BTU and room size you need. For a calculation of the air conditioner’s cooling capacity a space will require, you can use an air conditioning calculator that is available online. There is also BTU measurement guide that shows the room size per square foot, square meter, and the BTU needed on the chart. This will be very helpful in helping you find the right air conditioning unit for your house as well as specific rooms. Remember this vital principle as you choose the right air conditioning unit for your home. It will save you time because you will no longer have to spend time looking for a replacement. You will save yourself some money, not for more maintenance, but also for repairs in case it gets broken. Most of all, you will save yourself from the headaches of making a mistake because you were misinformed.

Abstract: Uncertainty about the future rises in recessions. But is uncertainty a source of business cycle fluctuations or an endogenous response to them, and does the type of uncertainty matter? To address these questions we pursue a novel identification strategy that restricts the behavior of the structural shocks. We find that sharply higher uncertainty about real economic activity in recessions is often an endogenous response to other shocks, while uncertainty about financial markets is a likely source of the fluctuations. These findings point to the need for a better understanding of how uncertainties in financial markets are transmitted to the macroeconomy.

1. Make about ten little incisions in each piece of beef fillet. Push the olive quarters into the incisions and season the beef well with salt and pepper. 2. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the beef over a high heat for 2 minutes each side. While the beef is cooking, chop the orange zest and basil finely and mix the two together. 3. Once the beef is cooked, roll it in the orange zest and basil mixture and set aside. 4. Deglaze the pan with the orange juice and the balsamic vinegar. Scrape off all of the caramelised goodies on the bottom of the pan and boil for a minute. 5. Add the olive oil, the spring onions, the sunblush tomatoes and the broad beans to the pan. Toss for about 30 seconds, season well and turn off the heat. 6. To serve, spread the rocket over a large platter, slice each fillet of beef into four and put it onto the rocket. Spoon over the vegetables with all of the juices and serve.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has revealed how he deals with problem players after reports of Daniel Sturridge’s unhappiness. All seems well between the player and his manager now, with the German praising the striker following his brilliant performance against Villarreal in their Europa League semi-final, but this has not always been the case. And the 48-year-old warned his squad against causing problems in the future during his press conference on Friday. ‘I am a really nice guy but if you complain in the wrong moment you will have a problem with me,’ said Klopp. ‘It’s all about the team’. This comes a week after Sturridge appeared to warn the club that he may look to move if he doesn’t get enough game time. Liverpool players will be looking to keep on the good side of their manager until the end of the season, with the chance to play in the Europa League final at the end of the month.

Some people refer to these as ‘spiderweb’ cracks but the technical name is ‘mapping cracks’. That’s because they can look like a street map. Generally they are much more obvious after rain as water seeps doown into the cracks. These cracks are typically only 2-3mm deep and are as a result of the surface concrete shrinking more, and sometimes faster, than the underlying concrete. ■ Adding water to the mix, when the delivery truck arrives on site, to improve concrete workability. ■ Sprinkling cement powder to soak up ‘bleed water’. ■ Letting the surface dry without Proper Curing . Although the cracking does spoil the look, it is a cosmetic issue and it doesn’t significantly affect the strength of the concrete. See Concrete for more posts.

BEST TIME TO VISIT: Anytime COMMENTS: Many residents on outlying farms, no town anymore except for a grange and old schoolhouse. That old building must be one of the oldest in the county, wooden, still standing and very picturesque. From Tualatin Valley Highway in Hillsboro, take SW River Road until it becomes Scholl�s Ferry Rd. Stop and see the old wooden schoolhouse at the intersection of Tile Flat Rd, next to the Grange. REMAINS: An old, marvelous schoolhouse. Fenced off on private property, but clearly visible and very close to the road. Park at the grange parking lot next door for admiration and photographs, to avoid standing on the busy highway. Twenty million years ago, lava flows from eastern Oregon snaked down the Columbia River and deposited a bed of basalt lava in the area known today as Washington County. During the last ice age, the region was engulfed repeatedly by the raging Missoula Floods, which deposited rich silt and topsoil.

A solid change management process plan will help make any change that is needed during the course of a project to be done as smoothly as possible. This will prevent any possible negative effects on the daily business activities of the business. To create an effective change management process plan a project management template should be used as an effective tool of management. This will allow for the creation of the formal document to be done quickly as possible while still ensuring the path it takes is correct. It is also the best way to ensure all of the details are included to make it an effective plan. The reason a change management process plan has to be created in the first place is so the scope and goals of the project plan as stated in the business case are always followed.

March 22, 2017 - A discovery of three damselflies in amber from Myanmar has given researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences a rare view into the way these tiny 100 million-year-old animals lived. Modern damselflies, close relatives of dragonflies, have a complicated courtship ritual. As reported by the scientists, in these fossil specimens, large spotted structures on the males’ legs would have been an aid in signaling for a mate, in a function similar to a bird’s showy plumage or a deer’s antlers.

Today is the first day of autumn. For many people, fall is their favorite season, but fall makes me a little sad because it means the end to summer—my favorite season. However, now that I live in Florida, I’m not quite as sad because we never get snow during our autumn, but it does mean that the water in the pool is sometimes too cold for swimming unless I want to run up the electric bill to heat it. This summer I didn’t have as much time to swim or walk on the beach, so the end of summer hits especially hard this year. I know, I know. I have lots of warm days left to walk on the beach, so I shouldn’t complain. The only thing I miss about living a little further north is the changing color of the leaves. This year we aren’t going to get to take a trip to see any leaves, but here are a few photos I’ve taken of trips we have made in other years. What would fall be without college football? here in Indonesia, we just have two seasons. the spring and summer rains and I like both. in my place, Jayapura, Papua there is no time limit for single season. we enjoy a balanced heat and rain. Theana, thanks so much for stopping by my blog. Sometimes I forget that there are people who read my blog from all over the world. The people in the southern hemisphere are starting spring. The world is a much bigger place now that we can all connect through the internet. Thanks for reminding me about other parts of the world. Those are beautiful photos. The drawback to living in Florida is not getting the fall colors, but the winters there are a definite plus! Living in North Carolina, fall is my second favorite season because of the beautiful colors. Spring is my favorite. Thanks, Connie. Spring is beautiful because of all the flowering trees and shrubs. I know when we lived near Atlanta I loved the dogwood trees. Thanks for your comment.

About 466 million years ago, there was a giant collision in outer space. Something hit an asteroid and broke it apart, sending chunks of rock falling to Earth as meteorites. But what kinds of meteorites were making their way to Earth before that collision? In a study published Jan. 23 in Nature Astronomy, scientists tackled that question by creating the first reconstruction of the distribution of meteorite types before the collision. They discovered that most of the meteorites falling to Earth today are rare, while many meteorites that are rare today were common before the collision. Meteorites are pieces of rock that have fallen to Earth from outer space. They’re formed from the debris of collisions between bodies like asteroids, moons and even planets. There are many different types of meteorites, which reflect the different compositions of their parent bodies. By studying the different meteorites that have made their way to Earth, scientists can develop a better understanding of how the basic building blocks of the solar system formed and evolved. To learn what the meteorite flux was like before the big collision event, Heck and his colleagues analyzed meteorites that fell more than 466 million years ago. Such finds are rare, but the team was able to look at micrometeorites—tiny specks of space-rock less than 2 millimeters in diameter that fell to Earth. They are less rare. Heck’s Swedish and Russian colleagues retrieved samples of rock from an ancient seafloor exposed in a Russian river valley that contained micrometeorites. They then dissolved almost 600 pounds of the rocks in acid so that only microscopic chromite crystals remained. Not having changed during hundreds of millions of years, the crystals revealed the nature of meteorites over time. Analysis of their chemical makeup showed that the meteorites and micrometeorites that fell earlier than 466 million years ago are different from the ones that have fallen since. A full 34 percent of the pre-collision meteorites belong to a meteorite type called primitive achondrites; today, only 0.45 percent of the meteorites that land on Earth are this type. Other micrometeorites sampled turned out to be relics from Vesta—the brightest asteroid visible from Earth, which underwent its own collision event over a billion years ago. —Adapted from a story first published by the Field Museum of Natural History.

Considering a skunk as a pet? Some of the skunk's personality traits can make them a challenge to live with - they are active and curious, and will get into everything. They are also prone to stealing items to make their beds softer. They can be stubborn and headstrong. Fortunately they are also friendly, loving and very entertaining and playful. Skunks are members of the weasel family (Mustelidae). There are four species of skunk in North America: striped skunks (Mephitis mephitis), hooded skunks (M. macroura), spotted skunks (Spilogale putorius), and scarce hognosed skunks (Conepatus mesoleucus). They also dig for insects, especially beetles, larvae, and earthworms. Their diet includes black widow spiders and scorpions. Being carrion eaters, they help keep roadways and neighborhoods clean. An estimated 70 percent of a skunk's diet consists of insects considered harmful to humans. There are four different kinds of skunks found in the United States. The spotted and striped skunks are the most widely distributed and therefore more likely to come into contact with people. The hooded and hog-nosed skunks are rarer and found mostly in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. The spotted skunk prefers the country and spends most of its life near farms. The striped skunk is more adaptable and lives in a variety of habitats. Skunks are placid, retiring and non-aggressive. They try very hard not to get in harm’s way. They have a home range of a few hundred acres at most. They are primarily nocturnal and usually solitary – except when mothers are raising their babies. They are active throughout the year, but in northern areas, they spend the coldest parts of the winter in their dens. Want more information about skunks? Browse our library of articles below.

In a similar vein, the Vatican press hall will not immediately issue an official bulletin, email alert, SMS or tweet to tell the 5,000 accredited journalists and other observers whether "Habemus papam." Jesuit Father Federico Lombardi, Vatican spokesman and head of the press office, said he would prefer people "live the moment" and try to figure out on their own what color the smoke is "rather than have a communique from the press hall." "Therefore, I won't be spending time sending SMSs at that moment; I believe we should be living it," he said to a round of applause from journalists during a news briefing March 9. It was a surprising response from media whose 24/7 schedules and digital demands have long clashed with the Vatican, which still uses faxes, conducts almost all news conferences in Italian and most often closes shop between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. When to see the smoke - Expected "Smoke Schedule" If a pope is elected on the first ballot of the MORNING, the white smoke would billow forth between 10:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. in Rome (4:30 a.m. and 5 a.m. CDT). If the pope is elected on the first ballot of the AFTERNOON, the white smoke would be seen between 5:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. (11:30 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. CDT). Vatican television will be broadcasting the "fumate" (smoke) live with a camera positioned about 10 yards away from the chapel chimney, giving people a shot that's "right in front of your nose." "When the smoke goes up, you'll know what's going down". Sign up and be notified as soon as the smoke turns white!

New Delhi, May 13: Lieutenant General Dalbir Singh is likely to be the successor of General Bikram Singh who is scheduled to retire on July 31. The defence ministry sent his name to the Appointments Committee of Cabinet (ACC) for approval. The 59-year old general's name was sent to the PM-headed ACC, just hours after the Election Commission allowed the government to go ahead with the appointment. Though the decision was under the scanner, especially when BJP had opposed the appointment, things softened down later on. It was being speculated whether the UPA government at the end of its tenure would appoint the new chief in accordance with seniority. The Election Commission had given government the permission to name the senior official on March 27. However, the ministry sought the poll panel's opinion to make the case watertight.

Argentina dentist Dr. Samuel Pelcman and his staff have found that the best way to fight all of these is through communication. A fluent communication relies not only on us, but also on you. It is our responsibility to make you feel comfortable so that you let us know your doubts and fears related to the dental treatment. It is an obligation from the professional to explain and make emphasis on your specific fears, before and during the treatment. The fewer feelings the patient hides from the professional, the softer the tension between both will be. This will diminish the uncertainty, will improve your trusting, and there will consequently be a lower level of stress during the treatment.

Humidity is the amount of water vapor (water that has turned from a liquid to an invisible gas) in the air. Absolute humidity is the actual amount of water vapor in a specified volume of air. Relative humidity is the ratio of moisture in the air as compared to the maximum amount of moisture the air can hold, which varies depending on the air temperature. Hotter air, for example, can hold more moisture. The dew point is the temperature the air needs to be cooled to (at constant pressure) in order to achieve a relative humidity (RH) of 100%. At this point the air cannot hold anymore water in the gas form. If the air were to be cooled even more, water vapor would have to come out of the atmosphere in the liquid form, usually as fog or precipitation. The higher the dew point rises, the greater the amount of moisture in the air. This directly effects how "comfortable" it will feel outside. Many times, relative humidity can be misleading. For example, a temperature of 30 and a dew point of 30 will give you a relative humidity of 100%, but a temperature of 80 and a dew point of 60 produces a relative humidity of 50%. It would feel much more "humid" on the 80 degree day with 50% relative humidity than on the 30 degree day with a 100% relative humidity. This is because of the higher dew point. So if you want a real judge of just how "dry" or "humid" it will feel outside, look at the dew point instead of the RH. The higher the dew point, the muggier it will feel.

A major achievement for design engineers is building precise control mechanisms for active processes. Lives depend on the precision in which certain processes are maintained, such as the manufacture of drugs. Even more vital to survival is the human body's complex, integrated system that maintains precise control over the body's temperature even when it generates tremendous quantities of internal heat through strenuous activity or is exposed to wide-ranging external temperatures. The organs in the skull, chest, and abdomen are the most temperature-sensitive organs in the human body. Biochemical processes, particularly enzyme activities, within these organs are essential for life and function best in a narrow temperature range of 96 to 101°F, which is called the "core" body temperature range. For most people, average temperature is 98.6°F, which is the "set point" established by the master temperature regulator within the brain--the hypothalamus. If core body temperature varies by about 10°F above or below this range, it poses a high risk of being lethal. Why? For every 1.8°F increase in the core, crucial chemical reaction rates in organs are deranged and increase by 10 percent. Also, as temperatures rise outside the normal range, proteins--particularly enzymes--start losing both their shape and function, while nerve tissue activity is increasingly depressed. Small children risk going into seizures at about 106°F and most people will be dead if the core reaches 109°F. Conversely, if the core is chilled to below 87°F, electrochemical activity in the heart starts becoming so disrupted that most people will die of cardiac arrest. It is critical to balance the body temperature within the core range. However, the difficulty of that task cannot be fully appreciated without considering the quantity of heat energy the body needs to manage. How much heat does a person generate? Even while sleeping, with skeletal muscles totally relaxed, heat is still produced as a byproduct of basic metabolism. In fact, about 60 percent of daily energy needs--enough heat to raise the temperature of 20 pounds of water about 2°F every hour--is expended just staying alive. Now add on activities. For every one hour of hard work or exercise, the heat generated could raise the temperature of the same water almost 20°F--and well-trained athletes can produce almost twice as much heat. An increased level of heat production lasts several hours even after activity ceases. Some engineers assert that offices built to optimal energy efficiency could be heated through the winter using only the body heat of the occupants themselves. Depending on the external environment surrounding a person, this generated heat can be a friend or foe--but it must be precisely regulated. The whole brain helps regulate body temperature, but the main thermoregulatory center is the hypothalamus (located midline in the brain behind the eyes), which possesses two specialized sections: a heat-losing center and a heat-promoting center. Just like in man-made systems designed to modulate temperature, a means of sensing the actual temperatures must be in place. The body has two distinct specialized cells--heat sensors and cold sensors called "thermoreceptors"--that are capable of detecting a temperature change as low as 0.4°F. To keep surveillance on the outside world, hundreds of thermoreceptors are optimally located in the skin, mucous membranes of the nose and mouth, the eyes, and in some muscles. Sensors send impulses to the brain depending on both how fast and how much the temperature changes--as many as 240 impulses per second for each receptor. Data from these sensors is kept organized by being segregated from other input sent to the brain via exclusive pathways in the nervous system. The data is continuously analyzed by the hypothalamus and converted to information that is compared to a preset bank of information that was present from birth. This allows the hypothalamus to anticipate external temperature changes that may affect core temperature and begin processes to adjust body temperature accordingly. The actual core temperature is monitored by the hypothalamus itself using thermoreceptors that measure the temperature of blood within this core organ. The heat-losing center and heat-promoting center each have body systems under its control that can be regulated to keep heat production equal to heat loss. When one center is stimulated, a concurrent inhibitory signal is sent to the other. So when it is hot outside or increased physical exertion raises the body temperature above the set point, the activated heat-losing center first inhibits the signal to tiny muscle fibers lining blood vessels in the skin. This decreases muscle tone, allowing the vessels to dilate and become flush with warm blood shunted away from the core. The skin acts as a giant radiator that offloads body heat to air currents that carry it away, directly transfers it to cooler objects, or radiates it away as electromagnetic energy. Using body heat to convert liquid water to a vapor is used continuously to maintain the core. The lungs and the skin each exchange almost a half a quart of water per day to cool the body just for basic needs. When a large heat transfer is needed, sweat glands on the skin can be massively recruited to cover the skin in very tiny droplets that can be easily evaporated. This method works best, because evaporating water removes up to ten times more heat than water that simply runs off in large drops from the skin. When heat-stressed, a person could potentially evaporate off up to two quarts of sweat per hour from the skin. When cold conditions threaten to lower the core temperature, the heat-promoting center initiates actions to conserve the heat that is made and produce more heat if it is needed. First, a signal is sent to the muscle fibers around the blood vessels in the skin to constrict and decrease flow. This reduces a large amount of heat loss and warm blood is kept in the deep body areas. Skin temperature begins to approach that of the external environment. If more heat is needed, internal metabolic rates are increased. A rapid increase in cellular metabolism is begun when the hypothalamus sends a nerve signal to the adrenal glands, which sit on top of the kidneys. A quick infusion of hormones from these glands, commonly called "adrenaline," increases cellular "burning" of sugars to make heat. A slower process is started when the thyroid gland is stimulated with a subsequent release of thyroid hormone to increase overall metabolism. Heat can be produced rapidly through an increase in muscle tone. By sending the right neurological signals, the muscle fibers rapidly pull against each another in an involuntary repetitive cycle known as shivering. In just a few minutes this process can raise the heat production rate to over four times the normal rate. Incredibly, all of these processes working together keep a person's core temperature within 2°F of the set point over a 24-hour period. People groups also have some innate genetic capability to adapt over several generations to different climates through selection of variable traits such as basic metabolism, skin color, subcutaneous fat thickness, and behavior modification. The information for these traits and all of the thermoregulatory process could never have been built up gradually through some long evolutionary route of trial and error. For survival's sake, thermoregulation has to be 100 percent in place and functioning. This process incorporates nearly every system in the body--which themselves have to be fully functional. The Lord Jesus' understanding of the human body He created and the magnificent complexities of His design are truly beyond description! * Dr. Guliuzza is National Representative at the Institute for Creation Research.

This is a nice looking little gun. It is the gun known to collectors as the .32 caliber Whitney Model No. 1-1/2 revolver. These were made from 1871 until 1879. According to Flayderman’s guide they only made about 15,000 of this model. This one has the serial number of 424 on the bottom of the handle. The 2-piece rosewood grips are intact and they have a great look. The brass frame still retains some of the original silvered finish in the protected areas. The barrel is full-length at 2-5/8ths inches and across the top you can read the "WHITNEYVILLE ARMORY CT. U.S.A. PAR. MAY 23, 1871”. The action works just as it should. This is the version that fires five shots. This is a lot of gun from the famous Whitney Company.
