Jodi Hildebrandt License on Probation Jodi Nan Hildebrandt had her license put on probation by the Utah Clinical Mental Health Counselor Licensing Board for 18 months effective January 25, 2012. Below is detailed information on the probation situation and resolution. (Original Article archived on Salt Lake Tribune) Porn therapist Jodi Hildebrandt violated state law and disciplined for telling LDS church, BYU about man A "porn addiction" therapist has been reprimanded by the state for discussing a patient — without his permission — with his LDS Church leaders and Brigham Young University. All of the claims made by Jodi Nan Hildebrandt were false, the man asserts, but they led to his loss of privileges in the church and his ejection from BYU. "She just lied wherever she went to [further] an agenda to destroy my life," said the man, who objected to bills that were as high as $2,000 a month. "We came there for marriage counseling, and she pulled us into her porn marathon." Hildebrandt, a professional counselor, is on probation for 18 months and must meet 22 conditions or she could lose her license. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints said Wednesday that Hildebrandt is no longer on LDS Family Services' referral list due to the case. She is the director of LifeStar Utah County, a franchisee of a national company based in Utah that specializes in pornography and sexual addiction. Excessive use of pornography is not recognized as a disorder by the American Psychiatric Association. The conditions on Hildebrandt's license include working under a supervisor approved by the Utah Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing. The supervisor will sit in on, videotape or audiotape at least one clinical session a month and review 20 percent of her patient files, according to a January order from DOPL. The supervisor will also instruct her on issues related to confidentiality, boundaries and relationships. She may also need to undergo a psychological evaluation and complete treatment if necessary. Hildebrandt did not return a phone call or email message. In the DOPL order, she agreed that her actions violated state law and the American Counseling Association's code of ethics. Hildebrandt's lawyer, Robert Harrison, said in an email that her license is "active and her practice has and will continue without interruption." In 2008, Hildebrandt provided therapy to a married couple, identified by DOPL only as John and Jane Doe, who later divorced. John Doe agreed to an interview but asked not to be identified because he fears repercussions from the therapist. He has subsequently been told he can return to study at BYU if he chooses, and he is currently a member of the church. Between 2008 and 2010, Hildebrandt repeatedly discussed the couple with their LDS clergy and other mental health therapists, without having signed authorization, the DOPL order said. In 2009, she talked about John Doe to the Honor Code Office at BYU. In those conversations, Doe said she accused him of having serious problems but never actually diagnosed him or spent enough time with him to do so. "She spent hardly any time knowing about my life," he said. "She didn't want to talk about my personal goals or my progress. She would only threaten me that if I didn't take more sessions and have my wife take more sessions, the alleged addiction would destroy my life." In addition, while Hildebrandt was providing therapy to Jane Doe, she allowed the woman to work in her clinic without documenting whether she had given the patient information about the benefits or risks of blurring their therapeutic relationship. In an interview, John Doe said the couple had been referred to LifeStar for marriage counseling by their LDS bishop, whose brother co-founded the Murray-based national LifeStar Network. It licenses others to use its counseling materials. John Doe said he did not have addiction issues, and once he began to question Hildebrandt's therapy — which cost $1,200 to $2,000 a month — his personal life started to unravel. He believes Hildebrandt was using his marriage as leverage "for me to pay for everything." Todd Olson, with LifeStar Network in Murray, said he is aware of the discipline order against Hildebrandt. He said she is licensed to use the company's materials but she is not an employee, and he has no authority over her Utah County office. Olson said LifeStar is on the LDS Church's authorized referral list for sex addiction therapy. The church has recently emphasized the dangers of pornography. Hildebrandt was listed as a speaker, addressing pornography, at the 2010 BYU Women's Conference. [email protected] — To be licensed in Utah as a "professional counselor," a therapist must have a master's degree or a doctorate in mental health counseling, or an equivalent degree. It must be from a school accredited by one of several professional councils selected by the Utah Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing. DOPL also sets standards for the types of coursework required. Stipulation Order Except: 7. Respondent admits the following facts are true: Respondent was first licensed as a professional counselor in the State of Utah on or about July 7th 2005 On our about April 10, 2008 respondent begame a clinical relationship providing mental health therapy to a married couple hereinafter referred to as John and Jane Doe. John and Jane Doe are now divorced Between April 2008 and March 2010, on multiple occasions in the State of Utah, respondent, without having received signed authorizations, discussed sensitive private information about John and Jane Doe with the clergy of John Doe and Jane Doe, and two other mental health therapists. On or about March 11, 2009 respondent, without having received signed authorizations or any other type of permission from John Doe, disclosed sensitive confidential information about John Doe, including a medical diagnosis, with administrators at the university located in Utah. The disclosure of the information was detrimental to John Doe and not in John Doe's best interest. Between about November 2009 and about March 2010, while respondent was providing mental health therapy to Jane Doe, respondent permitted Jane Doe, who was then a mental health therapy student, to perform a clinical practicum at the clinic owned by respondent. Respondent determined that this arrangement would be beneficial to Jane Doe due to the fact that Jane Doe that attended therapy groups and community support groups at the facility, that Jane Doe was comfortable with issues of the clients. Respondent failed to document the informed consent, benefits, and risks of such a relationship in Jane Doe's patient chart. Respondent admits that the Respondent's conduct and described above is unprofessional (Original Stipulation order on dopl.gov website) Stipulation and Order of License on Probation Clinical Mental Health Counselor Licensing Board – Jodi Hildebrandt, new probation interview Ms. Jodi Hildebrandt is in compliance with her stipulation. The Board needs to review her October and November supervisor reports. The Board needs to review any proposed CEs. She needs to have these completed by January 1, 2013. Discussion: The Board discussed Ms. Hildebrandt completing the AMHCA CE course, noting that this course deals with her boundary violations. This was a webinar that was held the week of December 10, 2012. She still needs to complete her essay. Ms. Hildebrandt met with the Board. Mr. King conducted the interview. Ms. Hildebrandt expressed concern regarding the students in attendance at this Board meeting. She was advised that the Board meetings are open to the public. She may request her interview with the Board be closed to discuss the character, professional competence, or physical or mental health of an individual. Ms. Hildebrandt stated she was okay with the meeting remaining open at this time. Ms. Hildebrandt noted that currently a former client and the inability to protect herself and her family from him stalking her is the biggest stress in her life. She believes that confidentiality laws prohibit her from identifying him to legal authorities at this time. She continues to be concerned about herself and her family's safety because she believes that she is still being stalked. She believes that he has been to her home 2 times since her meeting with the Board in September. Ms. Hildebrandt stated she continues working with law enforcement for assistance in this matter. Currently her local police department has 18 calls from her regarding the stalking and vandalisms. She attended 2 ethics courses and talked with the instructors regarding the stalking. They gave her the same feedback as the association lawyers and Board. One of the instructors stated he would research this further to see how other mental health therapists in other states handle this. Ms. Hildebrandt stated she regularly consults with her supervisor. They review her cases. The Board reminded Ms. Hildebrandt that when she is called into court, she should only share how a client is doing in treatment and if the court wants a recommendation, she should refer them to a mental health professional, licensed to provide custody evaluations. To do anything further would be a conflict of interest. The Board also advised Ms. Hildebrandt that it is appropriate for her to request a court order before responding to an attorney's request for client information. Ms. Hildebrandt stated that she manages her stress by exercising, looking to friends for support and talking with seasoned therapists. Ms. Hildebrandt stated she took a vacation out of state and found this very helpful. The Board noted that her supervisor reports are positive. Ms. Hildebrandt gave the Board a certificate showing she completed a continuing education course and will provide the Board with another one when she is able to get it printed. The Board encouraged Ms. Hildebrandt to review the Mental Health Practice Act, Exemptions for Confidentiality, 58-60-114 (2)(a)(i) reporting under Title 62A, Chapter 3, Part 3, Abuse, Neglect, or Exploitation of a Vulnerable Adult to see if her circumstances would fall under this category, and to consult with her liability provider attorney. The Board asked to see Ms. Hildebrandt on March 19, 2013. Ms. Hildebrandt is in compliance with her stipulation. (Original minutes on the dopl.gov website) Jodi Hildebrandt, second probation interview Ms. Hildebrandt met with the Board. Mr. King conducted the interview. Ms. Hildebrandt stated things are going well. She continues to deal with the issues of the stalker who comes to her home. Ms. Hildebrandt stated she is setting her own personal boundaries. She is being proactive in obtaining the appropriate releases. She is working to stay current on the laws and she interacts with people who know what the current laws are. The Board encouraged Ms. Hildebrandt to look at the written ethical standards and case studies. To contact the state chapter and national chapter as well as those within her community for input. Make sure she reviews the pros and cons with the client before she releases information. The Board noted Ms. Hildebrandt has completed her continuing education requirement. The Board reviewed her essay and felt it was done very well. The Board noted Ms. Hildebrandt's probation is for one year and is scheduled to end July 27, 2013.

She needs to have her supervisor include a note stating she supports Ms. Hildebrandt being released from probation. The Board advised Ms. Hildebrandt that supervisor reports are protected.

In the summer, my favourite salad is the Quinoa Salad. During these winter days, I wanted to try something different with this salad. Sauteing the vegetables first, and keeping the quinoa warm when serving allows for a great winter salad. Step 1: Add the quinoa and water to a pot. Bring to a boil for 4 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the quinoa absorb all the water. This may take roughly 20 minutes. Step 2: While the quinoa is cooking, in a large frying pan over medium heat, add 2 tbsp of olive oil. Add your chopped onion and season with salt and pepper. Saute for 3-4 minutes, until the onion is starting to look cooked and clear. Add all of the chopped bell peppers. Mix and saute for 3 minutes. Step 3: Add the clove of garlic, mix around and saute for another minute. Take the frying pan off the heat. Step 4: Zest the lemon into the cooked, warm quinoa. Juice the lemon into a measuring cup. Add the same amount of olive oil to the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper and whisk together until well incorporated. Step 5: Add the cooked vegetables to the quinoa and pour over the lemon and oil mixture. Mix to combine. Step 6: Add the crumbled feta and chopped cilantro and mix. Taste test...does it need more lemon? Cilantro?Etc.

Women Are More Practical Shoppers, But Men Get Better Deals: Infographic Jan. 24, 2012, 11:00 AM UPDATED: See below* So, you're in the market for a new car. You've skimmed through our extensive collection of news and reviews, and you're ready to hit the showroom. What should you expect? If you're a man, you might negotiate a slightly sweeter deal, however, your female friends will probably pay less because they've configured a more cost-efficient ride. That's according to new data from CarWoo. We first mentioned CarWoo a little over a year ago. It's a website that allows shoppers to solicit competing offers from auto dealers, a little like Lending Tree does for home loans. So, you tell CarWoo what sort of vehicle you're looking for, and CarWoo asks dealerships in your area to make their best offer. (Interestingly, when CarWoo debuted, there was a fee to use it, which made us somewhat skeptical about its prospects. Now, that fee seems to have been removed, or it's been pushed deep into the sale transaction*.) After crunching numbers for cars bought through CarWoo in 2011, data hounds found that women pay less for their wheels -- around $28,306, compared to $31,911 for men. That's mostly because women chose less expensive options and packages than their male counterparts. However, men did score ever-so-slightly better when it came to haggling. On average, men paid 10.3% below MSRP, while women got 10.2% off. That's pretty solidly in keeping with last year's stats, which found that "Only about one out of five dealerships offered a significantly different ($500+) price to one gender versus the other." This may have something to do with the fact that CarWoo's bidding process is anonymous, so dealers don't know a bidder's gender. Secret shoppers have found greater disparities in the way that salespeople treat men and women in person. Our suggestion? Don't rely on your gender to score a great deal. Instead, you're better off looking to specific brands. As we saw just a few weeks ago, Chrysler and Nissan offer substantially better discounts than other makes: the average Jeep customer saved 17.7% in 2011, while Nissan shoppers saved 15.7%, and Chrysler customers saved 14.2%. For a full rundown of CarWoo's 2011 shopping stats, check the infographic at left. UPDATE 1: When we reviewed CarWoo in 2010, we seem to recall the site's pricing plans being prominently displayed. This time around, when we entered from the front page, we found no mention of fees at all. However, a reader confirms that CarWoo still charges customers a usage fee -- $49.00 or $99.00, depending on the level of service. Thanks for the tip! UPDATE 2: Megan from CarWoo wrote in to clarify that CarWoo only charges customers who need to compare bids on more than one car. Comparing two cars runs $49, comparing three is $99. If you're just looking for bids on one vehicle, though, that's free. Capisce? This story originally appeared at The Car Connection Read more posts on The Car Connection »

Me & my fiance went to Bruno Mars and Janelle Monae's concert! I must say Bruno Mars is A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!!! His voice is really really really good!!! He was also fun and interacted with the audience. Ok let's start from the beginning. The opening act was Mayer Hawthrone. His music is a combination of blues, jazz, and soul – reminding me of my dad's favorite music. This was the first time I heard his name and I quite like him. After almost 20 minutes break, the main star, Bruno Mars, emerged from the stage. He pretty much covered all of the songs from his album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans, started with The Other Side and I Wanna be a Billionare, then: gentle-sweet Our First Time, Runaway Baby, Marry You, The Lazy Song, Count on Me, Liquor Store Blues, Nothing on You, Grenade, and ended with Just the Way You Are. For a moment, we thought the concert was over. The stage was darkened BUT the whole room was still dark. My fiance was ready to go but I insisted to stay for a while. My instinct was RIGHT! Bruno Mars & his band came back to the stage and sing the very last song Talking to the Moon with a big moon & tree at the background. His show felt so alive. The audiences sang along with him and some of them danced 🙂 Lesson learned: NEVER go out from the arena BEFORE the curtains go down and the lights in the room are ON!!!

Dr. Messina: Studies conducted in the 1970s and 1980s conferred to environmental surfaces a marginal role in the transmission of health care associated infections (HAIs). Today, it is demonstrated that several pathogens such as C. difficile, VRE (Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus) and MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) can survive even for months on inanimate surfaces. Up to 40% of HAIs can be spread by the hands of doctors and hospital staff after touching infected patient and/or contaminated surfaces; furthermore, people hospitalized in rooms previously occupied by patients infected by microorganism that can persist on surfaces present an increased risk to develop HAIs. iii) on acceptable levels of contamination of a specific surface. The need to provide validated methods to define the level of cleanliness of health care facilities is strongly felt due to the common practice of outsourcing hospital cleaning services and to hospital cost-saving policy. Several methods to assess cleanliness have been suggested, such as visual inspection, microbial count and bioluminescence. In our study we demonstrated that a fluorescent marker could be a valid tool for assessing the successful removal of dirt/microbial contamination. In addition, the method is inexpensive and easy to apply; it also allows a rapid assessment and does not require special training for proper use. Dr. Messina: In our study we suggested how to implement fluorescent marker with bioluminescence and microbiological methods. The use of one of these procedures should not exclude the others, since each analyses different aspects of the operations required to achieve environmental cleanliness. Dr. Messina: In assessing hospital cleanliness, studies shown that results obtained with fluorescent marker, bioluminescence and microbiological methods do not often correlate: further studies are needed to verify whether it is possible to standardize, and consequently to make proper comparisons among the 3 different methods, within several health care settings.

Looks Decadently delicious a feast for the eyes! I like it. Xoxo. Thanks for your warm welcome! I am excited to enter your world. And yes, I do like Enya! Chocolate and rainbows! What more can you ask for on a holiday? And that "flat" rainbow was probably flat because it had a heavy bucket of gold at each end weighing it down! Not a big fan of chocolate desserts, but it certainly looks yummy.

Culture is all … especially when it comes to cooking. Look how we fell in love with curry and Chinese, Thai and so on. Tattie (potato) scones are YUM … here's back at you, world, from Scottish cuisine. Easier to make than tossing the caber: Tattie Scones are simple, incredibly tasty and can accompany a wide variety of foods. Here's how to make a basic version. By the way: if you don't enjoy the tactile pleasures of tweaking and squidging stuff with your hands, this recipe probably isn't for you. In Scotland, tattie scones often accompany a fry-up. What's a fry up? Here's a photo of one from the Cafe 21 in Leven, Fife (near the #EastNeuk). If you're going to make these, all the usual: be-sensible-and-safe admonitions apply, hot griddles being what they are. That's all you need. Down stream we can explore variations. Mash your potatoes (cold or hot it doesn't matter to me – does to others). Are the skins tenacious? Leave 'em on. It can help to dice potatoes with strong skin. Add the flour and mix well – a wooden spoon handle works well at the beginning. Flour a spot of your work surface. Flatten the mix. You can press it down with your hands or roll it with a rolling pin. Alternative inventive suggestions will get a free audiobook of Angels Cut (9.5 hours long and read by a great British actor) . Comment your ideas to me. The judges decision is final … but bribery can work. Heat griddle. Lightly wipe butter onto the griddle. Paper towel works quite well. Once it's warm, ease up on the heat. Griddle everything (about 4/5 minutes each side) and lay on rack to cool. When you're ready you can toast, oven-warm or fry your tattie scones. YUM. You can vary amount you make as long as you keep to the proportions and adjust for the binding you want. Start by weighing your potatoes and calculate from there. As you work the mixture, don't be scared to add more flour if it is too wet. What I call "wetness" is when the mixture is too loose and won't bind into a dough-like ball. A bit of flour at a time will soon bind the mix. You achieve a consistent texture before cooking using flour (as in binding) to get it just right. I've found that an increase of flour, by roughly half works for wetter tatties. Just chuck flour in, mix it and make your dough. This has taken longer to write than it does to make tattie scones. Have a go. Enjoy. Bask in the admiring glances of the people who eat your creations. Here's mine. Previous Previous post: Ticket to Ride – best deal?

Brookstone is returning for a third time to Phipps Plaza. Brookstone, the gift and gadget emporium, will open a new store in the mall's first level in a month or so. The store opens in place of Michael Stars (which relocated to the former Carter Barnes) and is said to be only a temporary holiday store. Brookstone was for many years located next to where they will now open, but today Lilly Pulitzer occupies that space. That original space closed early last year, but during the holiday season, Brookstone re-opened in the former Armani Exchange space on the upper level. A few months ago, Brookstone relocated their Lenox Square space, previously adjacent to the Apple store, and now located alongside Crocs and Gap kids, still on the upper level. The store sports the new, more contemporary design, and appears to have a slightly larger sales area. Their former space will soon open as a first of its kind Tumi store, designed by Dror Benshetrit, an award-winning designer and architect. The Sharper Image, once a main competitor of Brookstone and occupant of multiple area malls, is today without a brick & mortar presence following their bankruptcy. The Sharper Image lives on as a brand via assorted retail partnerships. Went to Phipps today. Probably a good idea just to have a holiday store. It is a much smaller space than they had before. I get annoyed every time I go to Phipps now. Such a contrast with the nice expensive peaceful stores vs the lego land children. I did notice today that they put a permanent sign up on the new rug store in the former Cold Water Creek location.

liabilities being, in the main, infrequent capital calls when state budgets go into the red. In marked contrast to these conservative and endowment-styled sovereign vehicles sits a third group, a ragtag platoon of smaller funds that often fall under the umbrella of a larger, more diversified parent. It is a group that shares at least three common traits: leverage, investments chosen as much for prestige as returns, and, with few exceptions, domicile within the miniscule Emirate of Dubai. Young and chock-full of investment types seen more regularly in Manhattan than the Middle East, they are often private equity vehicles like Istithmar. foreign acquisitions that border on the absurd. In the Turkish restaurant with Karim and Jason, the one example of such excess that keeps arising is Istithmar's purchase of Barneys, the high-end global retailer. "The Barneys investment," groans Jason. "Man, we screwed up." Bought for $940 million in 2007, Barneys has shown thus far only its downside to its new owner. "It was an investment done for prestige, not return," says Karim. "Jackson thought that the people of Dubai would like such a flashy and Western investment. The returns were subpar, but it wasn't chosen for its returns." Although Jackson denies that Barneys is being shopped, Istithmar sources say otherwise. Jason, for one, laughs at Jackson's repeated assertions that Istithmar is not looking for a Barneys buyer. "It's like that guy in Iraq—what's his name? Oh yeah, Baghdad Bob—who kept saying 'the Americans are nowhere near Baghdad, they are slaughtering themselves on the city gates', and you can literally see the bombs going off behind him." The truth, however, is that Jackson can say whatever he wants—he answers only to Sheikh Mohammed, whose face adorns every second billboard in the Emirate. would never yield to bear. Property played an outsized role in Dubai's growth story. With no exclusivity on contracts and no transparency in process, real estate agents were in the bubble-creation business, happily representing both buyers and sellers in the same transaction. As in America's sand states, everyone seemed to be a real estate agent, and properties were increasingly bought not to own but to flip. Tower after tower was built by state-owned companies like Nakheel (which appears to have laid off up to 90% of its workforce) and Emaar Properties. The world watched as Dubai built the tallest building on the planet and made islands in the sea shaped like palms and maps of the globe. Even in the go-go days, there was something awry with Dubai's ascent. For a few delusional months, however, investors worldwide seemed to think that the Persian Gulf—including Dubai—might be spared the violence rattling global markets. The Gulf had oil, that logic went, and offered banking diversification and a tourist play. It turned out differently. While cash rushed into these once-diminutive markets following the first inklings of the American property and credit collapse and on speculation of depegged currencies, the autumn of 2008 saw the end of the dream. The crash has hit all parts of the Gulf now, just as it has affected every corner of the globe. It arrived not with a bang but with the slowly building whimper of falling oil prices and faltering capital flows. The entire region has struggled, but nowhere has it been felt more than in Dubai, levered to the tune of $80 billion, more than 100% of its GDP and upward of 10% of a quickly shrinking asset base. Like Hassan the bull, Dubai now sees simple survival as the order of the day.

Studio: Jeff Koons Jeff Koons, Balloon Venus Lespugue (Red), 2013–2019 (detail) Studio is an online series highlighting recent works by gallery artists. Focusing on a different solo project each time, the series situates artists' work in their current studio practices through personal snapshots, audio/video recordings, and reference materials. This special, expanded edition of Studio illuminated for the first time a large-scale balloon sculpture recently completed by Jeff Koons of the goddess Venus, a figure that has recurred in the artist's work since the 1970s. Featuring process videos, the artist's preparatory drawings, and Koon's own voice as a guide, this presentation offers an unprecedented look at his practice and work. Explore the Viewing Room Hulk (Yoke) Hulk (Yoke), 2004 - 2014 Polychromed bronze, wood, stainless steel, and live flowering plants 70 1/2 x 72 7/8 x 26 inches (179.1 x 185.1 x 66 cm) American artist Jeff Koons (b. 1955) is widely regarded for his bold paintings and monumental sculptures that hold a mirror up to contemporary culture. Using the photorealistic and commercial aesthetic familiar from an earlier generation of Pop artists, Koons has generated his own universally recognizable style that frequently comprises smooth, highly reflective surfaces and bright, saturated colors. Koons typically works in series, tapping into subject matter from popular culture and art history that is frequently reminiscent of childhood in order to empower the viewer towards achieving a state of personal transcendence. The present work belongs to a Koons's "Hulk Elvis" series—a body of paintings and sculptures begun in 2004, some of which depict The Incredible Hulk, a character first introduced in a 1962 comic book. Koons describes the Hulk Elvis figures as being also inspired by the guardian gods of Eastern philosophy, and as such they are meant to convey tremendous power and testosterone. Made from polychrome bronze, Hulk (Yoke) depicts the superhero in a stereotypical macho pose with his legs apart, hands tightened in fists, and muscles flexed, as though ready for a confrontation or battle. Despite the solidity of the material, the figure appears inflated, with minute creases and folds creating a trompe l'oeil effect that heightens its hyper-realistic appearance. Based on a blow-up toy, anatomical features have been outlined with paint rather than carved, juxtaposing flatness and volume. The figure carries a yoke across his shoulders with buckets of live flowers hanging by a chain from each side. This series marks the first time that Koons has included live flowers as part of indoor sculptures. Their ephemeral delicacy provide a stark contrast to the aggressive demonstration of power by the Hulk figure. Koons notes on the tension implicit in his Hulk figures: "I do think that there are many polarities coexisting in a work of art—the more it emulates life, the more real it is. The Hulk is like a guardian god. For these Hulks to have the ability to be a guardian, they have to be able to protect, and to protect means to maintain and shelter and preserve. But at the same time it means they have to have to ability for violence, to be able to withstand any pressure....[T]hat type of tension is part of our day-to-day animal existence, part of what it means to be a human and alive and to be able to survive and to depend on instinct and stay in contact with feelings."¹ ¹ Hans Ulrich Obrist, "Interview with Jeff Koons," in Jeff Koons: Hulk Elvis. Exh. cat. (New York: Rizzoli, 2009), p. 126. Jeff Koons: A Retrospective The artist's first major retrospective in New York organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art Installation view of Jeff Koons: A Retrospective at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York (2014) Jeff Koons: A Retrospective, which presented almost 150 works from 1978-2014 at the Whitney Museum of American Art, was the most comprehensive exhibition to date of the artist's groundbreaking practice, and his first major museum survey in New York. The exhibition was also the largest ever devoted to a single artist at the Whitney, and the final show to be held at the museum's historic Madison Avenue location prior to its move to the Meatpacking District in 2015. Organized by Scott Rothkopf, Curator and Associate Director of Programs at the Whitney Museum, the exhibition traveled to the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao in 2014-2015. By reconstituting all of Koons's most iconic works and significant series in a chronological narrative, the retrospective allowed visitors to understand his remarkably diverse output as a multifaceted whole. "He's a marvelous artist," said Peter Schjeldahl in The New Yorker, "a master with formidable aesthetic intelligence and a very great deal of nerve." Writing in The New York Times, Roberta Smith described the exhibition as "lucid, challenging, [and] brilliantly installed." A fully illustrated publication accompanying the exhibition includes texts by Scott Rothkopf, Antonio Damasio, Jeffrey Deitch, Isabelle Graw, Achim Hochdörfer, Michelle Kuo, Rachel Kushner, Pamela M. Lee, Alexander Nagel, and James Surowiecki. Also included are preparatory sketches and plans for selected works, as well as installation photographs that shed light on the artist's process and development. Published by the Whitney Museum of American Art Jeff Koons: Gazing Ball A publication created in collaboration with the artist to accompany his first solo exhibition with the gallery Gazing Ball was published on the occasion of the artist's first solo exhibition at David Zwirner. Held in New York in 2013, the show marked the international debut of the Gazing Ball series. In this body of work, large plaster sculptures modeled after iconic works from the Greco-Roman era and quotidian objects such as garden ornaments are each anchored by a blue "gazing ball" of hand-blown glass. These are conceptually derived from the mirrored ornaments of the kind seen on suburban lawns, including those of Koons's childhood hometown in rural Pennsylvania. Created in close collaboration with the artist, this fully illustrated publication echoes the classic design of a Picasso catalogue from 1970 admired by Koons, and features an essay by Francesco Bonami. "While all of the sculptures are grounded in their own distinct narratives, derived from art history and suburban towns," Bonami writes, "the seemingly fragile and delicate gazing ball establishes that sense of uncertain equilibrium that exists between history and fantasy, magic and materiality, mass culture and exclusive beauty." Published by David Zwirner Books Appearance Stripped Bare: Desire and the Object in the Work of Marcel Duchamp and Jeff Koons, Even Museo Jumex, Mexico City May 19–September 29, 2019 Appearance Stripped Bare: Desire and the Object in the Work of Marcel Duchamp and Jeff Koons, Even presented more than seventy works by both artists. The exhibition was curated by Massimiliano Gioni, Artistic Director at the New Museum in New York. The exhibition at Museo Jumex, according to the press release, placed the work of Koons and Duchamp "side by side, as in a hall of mirrors that reflects, distorts, and amplifies the artists' similarities and differences within a complex 'regime of coincidences,' to borrow one of Duchamp's peculiar expressions." The exhibition's title, too, borrows from Duchamp's famous work The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even (The Large Glass) (1915–1923). "It is a unique opportunity to be able to bring together the work of Marcel Duchamp and Jeff Koons," Gioni states; "Appearance Stripped Bare is less preoccupied with grafting family trees than with understanding how our attitudes toward objects have changed over the past century, and how the objects that we surround ourselves with are reflections of our desires." The show was accompanied by a daylong conference at IFAL, the French Institute of Latin America, on May 18, starting at 10:30 AM. A full program of conversations featuring curators, scholars, and writers includes Jeffrey Deitch, who has worked frequently with Koons and who contributed an essay to the Whitney Museum's retrospective catalogue, and Francis Naumann, a New York–based scholar specializing in Duchamp and New York Dada.

The title of the series referenced a work by Allen Ruppersberg, whose first New York survey exhibition was held at the museum in 1985. The talks took place on December 2 and December 3, 2017. The conversation between George Condo and Jeff Koons was covered in ARTNEWS, including sound bites from Koons about his debut exhibition in New York—"I wanted people to have a feeling of coming across something that was in some ways better prepared to survive than yourself"—and Condo's recollections of working for Andy Warhol's Factory. Earlier in 2017, the New Museum presented the major solo exhibition Raymond Pettibon: A Pen of All Work, featuring over seven hundred drawings from the 1960s to the present and marking the artist's first museum survey in New York. In 2016, The Keeper featured a sculptural installation by Carol Bove created in response to the work of Carlo Scarpa. The New Museum also presented The New—Jeff Koons's first solo exhibition in New York—in 1980.

Q: Weighted average vs. weighted mean Is there a formal difference between weighted average and weighted mean? I get corrected to the latter if I type in the former in wikipedia, and then there is a lot of stuff about the name "average" so I'm not sure about anything anymore. As a small bonus question: Logically, what is the field which introduces weighted averages? To associate it with measure theory seems a little over the top. A: As far as I know average and mean informally are interchangeable terms. As far as weighing, the classical Greeks already were aware of not only arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means but possibly as many as 10 different types. As discussed in Graziani and Veronese in "How to compute a mean? The Chisini approach and its applications" Am Stat 2009: "(Oscar) Chisini in 1929 pointed out that in a practical context a mean should simplify the problem under investigation (by replacing several observations by a single value) so that the overall evaluation of the problem itself remains unchanged. Therefore, the main issue is the specification of the invariance requirement, being a function of the observation, that we want to remain unchanged while replacing the observations by their mean" The authors also write: "The approach has a double advantage. First by discouraging any automatic procedure it makes students understand the substance of the problem for which a mean is required. Second, it does not require a preliminary (and necessariy imcomplete) list of different mean formulas." Examples of invariance requirements and resulting means listed in Table 1 include weighed arithmetic, weighed quadratic, weighed harmonic, weighed geometric, weighed power, weighed exponential. The paper works through several easily followed practical applications including Mean Traveling Speed, Mean Interest Rate, Mean Exchange Rate and others. Finally, the authors note that Chisini Mean does not directly address important statistics like mode and median, but generalization by A. Herzel in 1961 (A paper I've been searching for) recasts the invariance constraint as an optimization problem to handle these.

OSSAA Coverage D1 Baseball/Prep Baseball Report Top 100 Tue May 30, 2017 D1Baseball.com and Prep Baseball Report are teaming up on some preview coverage of the 2017 Major League Baseball Draft, which takes place June 12-14. First up is a Top 100 ranking, combining the respective college and high school lists put together by Frankie Piliere and Nathan Rode. Both will also participate in a chat with readers, which can be found here. The 2017 MLB Draft is less than two weeks away and the only thing that seems to be clear is who the top five prospects are. In what order they will be picked is still anybody's guess. The inaugural D1Baseball.com/Prep Baseball Report Top 100 starts with RHP Hunter Greene (Notre Dame HS, CA). The UCLA recruit would become the first high school righty taken with the first pick, if that's the way the Minnesota Twins decide to go. Greene has been in the spotlight for a few years now, playing with the USA Baseball 15U and 18U National Teams, hitting triple digits during his senior season and becoming the fourth high school baseball player to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated. He's an excellent athlete and would be considered a top-three round prospect as an infielder if his ceiling on the mound wasn't so high. Checking in at No. 2 on our list is the top college prospect in RHP Kyle Wright (Vanderbilt), who entered the season as the consensus top arm in the class, struggled out of the gate, but kicked things back into gear and caught fire at just the right time. Wright is the combination of polish, command, and swing-and-miss stuff that scouts dream about. Armed with a 92-97 mph fastball, swing-and-miss breaking ball and quickly developing changeup, Wright has the stuff and command that will allow him to advance up the minor league ladder at a rapid rate. LHP MacKenzie Gore (Whiteville HS, NC) is one of the biggest risers in the 2017 class. He made the rounds on the showcase circuit as an athletic, projectable lefty. Odds were that he would wind up at East Carolina, but his stuff took a step forward this spring and his starts have been heavily attended by teams with top 10 picks. He is comfortably pitching in the low 90s while mixing in a curveball, slider and changeup, all of which he commands well. While Greene, Wright and LHP/1B Brendan McKay have been mentioned the most as potential No. 1 picks, Gore is a darkhorse and belongs in the conversation at the very least. McKay presents arguably the most fascinating case study for scouts in recent memory, as he makes a legitimate case as a first-round talent as both a hitter and pitcher. The sense in the industry is that he'll be selected as a pitcher, but there is also a solid chance that he'll be given a chance to be one of the rare true two-way players at the professional level in baseball history. His three-pitch mix, including a 90-93 mph fastball, and above-average command will make him another fast-track candidate from the college ranks. With or without the bat, he's a phenomenal pitching talent. Rounding out the top five is SS Royce Lewis (JSerra HS, CA), a UC Irvine recruit. He isn't a lock to stay at shortstop, but he has the speed to play center field and his offense would profile anywhere on the diamond. His bat is quick through the zone and he has plus power from the right side. What this class has working heavily in its favor is a group of college players who have provided clarity to the overall crop. The college bats stepped up and became one of the strengths of the class, with two Virginia sluggers in Pavin Smith and Adam Haseley putting together monster springs and flying up into the top 10 overall picture. OF Keston Hiura (UC Irvine) and 3B Jake Burger (Missouri State) give teams even more choices if they're looking for polished college sluggers. And, if you're looking for raw tools and upside, OF Jeren Kendall (Vanderbilt) has a combination of speed and power that continues to entice scouts. The pitching has stepped up as well, as 6-foot-6 southpaw and strikeout artist David Peterson and RHP Griffin Canning (UCLA) have both significantly upped their stock this spring. To no one's surprise, RHP J.B. Bukauskas (North Carolina) continued to dominate this spring and his all-world slider and mid-90s fastball combination has made him the most sought after college pitcher beyond Wright and McKay. The high school crop is muddled after Greene, Gore and Lewis, with several having a shot at getting picked in the first round. Toolsy outfielders like Austin Beck (North Davidson HS, NC), Jordon Adell (Ballard HS, KY) and Bubba Thompson (McGill-Toolen HS, AL) offer plenty of upside, but questions remain about how much they'll hit. 1B Nick Pratto (Huntington Beach HS, CA) has one of the purest bats in the country, college included, while also projecting to be at least a plus defender at first base. On the mound, RHPs Shane Baz (Concordia Lutheran HS, TX), Blayne Enlow (St. Amant HS, LA) and Sam Carlson (Burnsville HS, MN), as well as LHPs Trevor Rogers (Carlsbad HS, NM) and D.L. Hall (Valdosta HS, GA) all project to have average or better fastballs and secondary stuff. Rank Name Pos.

An architect producing subtle and sophisticated buildings, with a sensitivity for materials and an awareness of their environment. He is looking for architecture that lasts, that resists the culture of spectacle. David Chipperfield's first substantial project was the long demolished shop designed for Issey Miyake on Sloane Street in 1983. With its veined white marble, generously proportioned timber floorboards and an intricate palette for the supporting cast of materials, it might seem a little rich for the Chipperfield of today, but it remains a sophisticated exercise in place-making, and in its intentions and ambitions are not so far from what he would be doing now. Even then, Chipperfield was ready to say that it was important not to do too much. All that a shop might need would be a really beautiful floor. That introduction to Issey Miyake was to take him to Japan, where he was one of the early arrivals in the wave of Western architects sucked into the Tokyo of the Bubble Economy. He built two substantial buildings — an art gallery and an office building. It was enough to keep his office in London afloat, though he built very little in Britain at that time: a house for the photographer Nick Knight, the River and Rowing Museum in Henley, and a little office building in Camden. Chipperfield had an office in the same semi-derelict building as Blueprint Magazine. With space to spare, he turned the basement of the building into the architecture gallery, 9H. For the London of those days, where a self-regarding insularity gave it an unjustified faith in its own pre-eminence as an architectural centre, the bracing astringency of 9H was something of a departure. Named after the hardest of hard lead pencils, 9H was determined to bring the unsentimental architectural sensibility of what were then seen as obscure Swiss firms, such as Herzog and de Meuron, and assorted Austrians, to the blinkered attention of the Anglo Saxon world. It was not an easy task. And indeed, 9H's policy was to have some piquantly unintended consequences. It was Herzog and de Meuron who were selected to rebuild the derelict Bankside power station as Tate Modern, rather than Chipperfield who had put everything that he could into his competition submission, even a last minute plan to amputate the building's landmark chimney, in a move to create the kind of generously proportioned gallery spaces that Tate Modern still lacks in sufficient quantity. His response to the difficult climate of the 1980s when he started in practice, after training at Kingston University and at the Architectural Association, followed by time spent working for both Richard Rogers and Norman Foster, was not to compromise with the Prince of Wales and his acolytes or with the cynical commercial developers of the period. Instead he stuck with the restrained, quiet, thoughtfulness of the architecture that the 9H team championed. There were a couple of bruising encounters with the militantly philistine nature of the British way of doing things. When Chipperfield designed Nick Knight's house in an undistinguished suburban street, the neighbours, unabashed by the banality of their own homes, did all that they could to prevent it from being built. Chipperfield had an equally hard time building his own offices in a mews in Camden, with the London evening paper gleefully egging on opponents of what was described as his 'aggressively modernist and out-of-scale design'. In the process, Chipperfield realised that to have any chance of building, or indeed surviving, he would have to look beyond Britain to mainland Europe, where he could see himself as part of a group of architects who brought a seriousness and intellectual ambition to their work that went beyond stylistic mannerisms. Chipperfield today heads a substantial international practice. He is building, or has built, in China, America, Japan, Italy, Spain and Germany, though comparatively little in Britain. And so, Chipperfield, who is in so many ways quintessentially English, has become the most European of British architects. His office in Berlin — established a decade ago to work on the most complex project he has ever addressed, the reconstruction of the Neues Museum, Berlin's archaeological museum, bombed in the Second World War and never restored — is now larger than his London operation. It is a complex position in which to find himself, especially for an architect who believes in rooting his work in place, memory, and material qualities. When you have joined the international flying circus, how do you resist the tendency it encourages toward the showy gesture, and the quick fix? Chipperfield's work could be seen as conservative in the best sense. He is looking for architecture that lasts, that resists the culture of spectacle. Presenting his design for a new headquarters for the BBC in Glasgow to a competition jury, with a site on the edge of a derelict enclosed dock on the fringes of the city, surrounded by a howling void of anonymous and banal business parks and apartment towers, Chipperfield described his task as trying to find a way to give some sense of permanence and place to an environment, which looked, as he put it, as if it might blow away with the first gust of wind. Given the restrictions of the budget, and the brutal simple-mindedness of a procurement procedure that saw the BBC outsourcing the project to a finance house, there were not too many options for Chipperfield. But he came up with a project that made the most of its interior. Like an Adolf Loos raumplan, he took the fixed elements of the brief — the studios — and placed them on the floor of the building like giant steps. He put the social spaces of the building on top of them in a cascading sequence that raises the height of the interior. In the process he made somewhere out of nowhere. The challenge for his two early Japanese buildings was almost the reverse — how to create a moment of stillness in the midst of the chaotic life of the suburban fringes of contemporary Japanese cities. He did it by creating a world within a world. As Chipperfield's practice has grown and matured, he has stepped up to the challenge of exploring new types of brief, and developing his own distinctive voice. The most complex, and hard to categorise, is the Neues Museum in Berlin, which undoubtedly stands as his first mature landmark, and perhaps also the building in which he has taken the biggest conceptual risks and come up with solutions that are both traditional, in that they refer back to the strategies for dealing with the restoration of old buildings advocated by William Morris when he set up the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings in the 19th century, and yet have an entirely contemporary astringence. The Neues Museum, with its obsessively painstaking approach to preserving every flake of damaged paint from a building mutilated by war, and dissolving in the rain of decades of post-war neglect, is like nothing previously attempted in its attitude to history and its attempt to make something new out of it. Equally original in its own way is the emergence of a group of buildings that began with the Museum of Modern Literature in Marbach, Germany. With a cliff-top setting, alongside a classical neighbour, Chipperfield broke the greatest post-war taboo of German architecture, and introduced what can only be understood as a modernised classical building, with colonnade, though no entablature, or capitals on its columns. Chipperfield is uncomfortable about having too much made of this, but it is clearly a vocabulary which is set to recur in other projects that he is working on. This kind of disciplined tectonic approach is only one strand to his work. The building he did for Valencia's waterfront when that city hosted the America's Cup is a reminder of his interest in the relationship of architecture with urbanism, and also a concern for the social aspects of a building. Chipperfield gently subverted what was intended to be a viewing platform for an elite group of sponsors for the yacht racing season, by tying it into the city around and making it partly permeable to the public. For Chipperfield, a master plan is not merely the disposition of blocks on a map, a kind of large scale architecture, rather it is a means of articulating a shared vision about what a university might be like, or how a cultural centre can be part of the life of a city. He is a pragmatist of course. Anybody with a large office to maintain has to be that. He is ready to make silk purses out of the sow's ear projects; bringing a certain dignity to affordable mass housing projects on the edge of Madrid, at the same time as engaging in the intellectually sophisticated challenge of making a studio for the artist Antony Gormley. But he has stuck to his belief in architecture of substance. With a style that is restrained, quiet and thoughtful, David Chipperfield is of one of Britain's leading architects. He has a huge international reputation and completed buildings in China, Japan, Italy, USA, Spain and Germany. Chipperfield produces subtle and sophisticated buildings, from museums to homes, with an acute sensitivity for materials and a powerful awareness of their environment. This comprehensive overview looked at key moments in his development as well as at major recent projects including the Museum of Modern Literature in Marbach, Germany, the America's Cup Building in Valencia, Spain, the newly completed Neues Museum in Berlin and the Hepworth Museum in Wakefield, Yorkshire. Zaha Hadid (1950-2016) defined a radically new approach to architecture by creating buildings, such as the Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in Cincinnati, with multiple perspective points and fragmented geometry to evoke the chaos of modern life.

Faithful to my Homeland, the Republic of Poland Political cooperation Learn Polish in the UK Education and qualifications Home News #Polka100 Basia Lalik "For years nobody has ever questioned the fact that women received smaller wages. Time is up – and it is high time for us to do something about it. We do deserve to get the equal pay. I do not understand how is that even a controversial view." I moved to Britain mostly for personal reasons, but when I did I signed up for a media course at the University of Brighton. Back then there was no similar course available in Poland, perhaps except for the Film Academy in Łódź, where securing a place was nearly impossible anyway. The first few years in this industry are particularly hard. I worked as a trainee for 60 hours per week, earning little above the minimum wage. Many of my friends gave up in the process, especially women, as the work was so demanding, and the pay - inadequate. My nationality was a part of the story, too. I was the only Pole training for a professional position, whilst even a job of a receptionist was out of my reach because of my foreign accent. That was truly difficult time. I remember seeing my friends working in the hospitality industry earning twice the amount of money I did. I was literally on the verge of giving up when I was offered a position with the BBC to work on Holtby City, the TV series. I would dare to say that it was that particular moment that detemined my whole career. For a girl from Poland getting a contract with the BBC was a dream come true in itself - but looking back it was just the beginning. In the next few years I worked on some truly great series as Made in Chelsea or award-winning Veep. That is when I received a call asking me to join the team of Game of Thrones. I could not believe my luck: the series was winning awards all over the world and was regarded as the ultimate TV experience - and here I am! Sometimes I felt like pinching myself was the only way to check if is this really happening or is it just a beautiful dream. From there I went on to work on the second season of "The Crown", and recently completed my first feature film, "Yardie". During the cast and crew screening I felt really special as it was the first time I have ever seen my name in the credits at the end in a cinema. It is just a split second, but you are so proud that you forget how hard it was to get as far as this. With Netflix, Amazon and HBO changing the entertainment industry, the situation now is entirely different than it was when I was starting. Obviously, I regret nothing, but would I be ready to go through the whole thing once again? I do not know. The costs one has to bear on the way up surely result in less women getting to the top jobs in the industry. I have been working on major productions for many years now, but even today it sometimes happens that I feel a bit overwhelmed when I enter a room and almost only men are sitting at the meeting table. Fortunately, all the campaigns about gender pay gap in the media are shaking my professional world. For years nobody has even questioned the fact that women received smaller wages for the same job. Time is up – and it is high time for us to do something about it. We do deserve to get equal pay. I do not understand how is that even a controversial view in 2018. I am now working with two female colleagues within their own company and I already know we are expecting to work on an amazing new show featuring actresses who were my childhood heroes. I think I might have to pinch myself again to believe this is really happening.

Scott C: We've got another Scott on the show, a buddy of mine, Scott Bower, who is the host of the InvestThis podcast and also the owner of Southwest Property Buyers who does a tremendous job. This cat is closing over $20 million in transactions and does an amazing job not only as an investor of investors but also as a show host for his podcast. I was honored to be a guest on InvestThis and getting a lot of great feedback from that. I'm honored to return the favor and have Scott on the Note Closers Show podcast. What's going on? Scott B: I appreciate you having me on here. 2019 is starting off strong. I'm excited to get things going. Scott C: Why don't you share with people a little bit of your journey, how you got into real estate and your journey to where you're at now? Scott B:I started back in 2000. I moved to Arizona at the beginning of 2012. I've been here for several years. I moved here right after college. I moved out to Arizona. I'm originally from Iowa. I went to the University of Iowa. I got three degrees in four-and-a-half years. Scott C: What are the three degrees in? Scott B: Business Communications, Entrepreneurial Management and Health Promotion with an emphasis in Nutrition, a little bit different. Three different colleges but ended up being that way. I was an entrepreneur from a young age. I started a car detailing company back when I was a junior in high school. Entrepreneurship has always been my thing. While I was in college, I met my first mentor who happened to be the president of a large logistics company based out of Iowa called Jacobson Logistics. When I was in college, I interned with them every year. When I graduated he said, "Where do you want to go to the country? We'll make a job anywhere you want to go." I narrowed it down to three different options: Atlanta, Georgia, Phoenix, Arizona or Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Naturally, Phoenix, Arizona was the winner of the three and I ended up here. I was doing that for about a year or so. I worked for that company before I got tired of working for the man, working for somebody else. I got my real estate license. I started there with a realtor for a little bit and gradually progressed. Scott C: You talk about how you became a realtor. It wasn't your cup of tea then I take it. Phoenix, Arizona when you moved there over the last several years, that area has gone through a tremendous amount of change in the real estate side. I can remember buying $300,000 properties I was picking up for $30,000 back in the day. Scott B: Phoenix is one of those areas that are boom or bust. When I moved here in 2012, which was the beginning of when things started to uptick, I didn't have the pleasure of being here and knowing what I know now. Back in '08 to '11, we could buy these things that literally cents on the dollar. I have been able to see the increase in value. Phoenix has changed tremendously since I've been here. It's been cool to see it. It's been cool to be part of it. We're trying to see where is it going to go? Everything has happened in the past is done and over with. You no longer can control that. We only try to control what's in the future. Trying to nail down where we're at and making sure we're making safe investments now that aren't going to put us in a hole if something wants to correct in the market.

\section{Introduction} Among a number of problems dealt with the surface diffusion, which occurs either due to thermally activated \cite{PhysA195,Ferrando} or tunnelling mechanisms \cite{Ferrando,single}, one can single out the investigation of the frustrated translational mode (T-mode) of the adsorbate \cite{T-mode-1,T-mode-2}. The T-mode is known to appear when the adparticle moves between two stable positions at the surface within one adsorption site (for instance, between the atop position and the saddle point \cite{single}) due to interaction with phonons or electronic subsystem of the substrate. This motion of the adsorbate is being detected during inelastic helium atom scattering (IHAS) \cite{IHAS-1,IHAS-2} as an additional peak in the dynamic structure factor \cite{T-mode-2,Sfactor-1,Sfactor-2}. The vibrational nature of the T-mode allows to refer this excitation to the external (low frequency) modes of the adsorbate \cite{exMode-1,exMode-2}, which are more or less temperature dependent and dispersionless with homogeneous broadening at low coverages \cite{T-mode-2}. In the last years the T-mode became a subject of the intensive studies of both experimentalists and theorists. For instance, in the recent scanning tunnelling spectroscopy experiments \cite{Komeda} the excitation of the T-mode in polyatomic molecules CO/Pd(110) has been explained in terms of the energy transfer from the C-O stretch mode to the frustrated translational one due to the anharmonic coupling between normal modes. A certain intrigue is introduced by the fact that the T-mode is observed even in such ``classical'' systems as CO/Cu(001) and CO/Pt(111) \cite{Csystems}, though the underlying mechanism of the T-mode formation is purely quantum mechanical: the transitions between ground and excited states within a well. This stimulated a creation of the models based on classical \cite{Csystems} or quantum \cite{Micha19} Langevin equations, the transition state theory (TST) \cite{Kramers}, where anharmonicity of the lattice potential is taken into account, leading to the temperature induced shift and broadening of the T-mode \cite{T-mode-1}. At the same time, a theoretical approach for the T-mode description has been proposed \cite{T-mode-2} from purely quantum mechanical concepts. This method allows to extrapolate the results obtained at $T\ne 0$ to the zero temperature limit, yielding information about the ``adsorbate-substrate'' interaction strength and vibrational frequency from the IHAS data. Much effort has been put \cite{T-mode-2} into description of the T-mode temperature dependence. It is known that unlike diffusion the vibrational damping is not an activated process \cite{T-mode-2,JCP2}. Nevertheless, the temperature induced T-peak shifts towards lower frequencies, and almost linear broadening is observed \cite{Csystems} for the Na/Cu(001) system in a region between 0 K and 200 K, while for the CO/Cu(001) and CO/Pt(111) systems the T-mode is {\it blue}-shifted with temperature. It is believed that at low temperatures the shape of the T-mode is dominated by a frictional damping, characterized by the nonadiabatic coupling to the substrate excitations \cite{T-mode-2}. At high temperatures the anharmonicity of the static lattice potential plays a dominant role \cite{T-mode-1}. Summarizing, it could be stated that up to now there is no unique viewpoint which factors (phonon and/or e-h excitations, anharmonic contributions, or memory effects) are predominant in the T-mode development at different temperatures, couplings and interaction regimes. Last but not least, one can relate the existence of the T-mode to multiple jumps of the adsorbate. The onset of multi-\-hops was associated with an inelastic peak of the dynamic structure factor at frequency $\omega_{osc}$ of the adparticle oscillations at the well bottom \cite{PhysA195,SurScience311}. If the T-mode is well resolved on the dynamic structure factor and not overlapped by the central quasi-elastic peak, it could be said that thermalization of the adsorbate velocity has not taken place yet, and multiple jumps contribute significantly to the diffusion coefficient. In the present paper we study the conditions of the T-mode formation, its temperature dependence, and its connection with the nature of the ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction. We explore a two-level model of the light particle coupled non-adiabatically to the surface phonons \cite{JCP1,PRE2009,PRE2011}. The other kinds of ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction, like electronic friction or nonlinear phonon coupling, will be also considered. The underbarrier hopping to the nearest adsorption sites is postulated to be a ``driving force'' of the surface motion of the adsorbate. We consider non-Markovian effects of the adsorbate motion, dealt with retarded relaxation of the lattice excitations, to be the main reason of the T-mode origin. Since this one-particle excitation is very sensitive to the form of the kinetic kernels, rigorous numerical evaluation of the T-mode temperature behavior is carried out without any approximation (e.g., like Wigner-Weisskopff one \cite{T-mode-2,Micha19}). On the other hand, both zero temperature and semiclassical limits for the kinetic kernels are considered in our paper that allows us to obtain the analytical expressions for the T-mode characteristics at low ``adsorbate--substrate'' coupling. We perform our analysis in terms of the generalized diffusion coefficients (which are related to the ``velocity--velocity'' autocorrelation functions) rather than dynamic structure factor. The latest approach is often complicated due to the overlap of quasi-elastic and inelastic peaks of the dynamic structure factor \cite{PhysA195}, while the method of generalized diffusion coefficients allows one to study the T-mode in more detail, being focused on the adsorbate motion at the well bottom. We propose a physical interpretation of the observed temperature induced shift of the T-mode on the basis of a comparative analysis of two typical timescales of the system dynamics: a time of decay $\tau_v$ of the generalized diffusion coefficients and a correlation time $\tau_{cor}$ of the thermal bath random forces. The obtained results reveal a close connection between the direction of the T-mode shift and the nature of the ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction. Our paper is organized in the following way. In Sec. II we present the generalized diffusion coefficient of a light particle derived by the method of quantum kinetic equations \cite{PRE2009,PRE2011} on the basis of two-level dissipative model of adparticle coupled to substrate phonons. In Sec. III we consider different correlation functions of the thermal bath random forces, which depend on the nature of the ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction. In the next Section we attribute the T-mode of the adsorbate to the coherent part of the generalized diffusion coefficient and calculate its temperature dependence numerically at different values of ohmicity index $n$. A comparison of the obtained results with the experimental data and the results of similar theoretical approaches is provided in this Section. In Sec.~V we calculate the T-mode frequency and width analytically in zero and high temperature limits for strongly sub-Ohmic (ohmicity index $n=0$), Ohmic, and the super-Ohmic systems with $n=2$. In Sec. VI, according to Refs. \cite{PhysA195,SurScience311}, we relate the T-mode to the onset of multiple jumps of the adsorbate and generalize the conditions of the multiple hopping to the case of quantum surface diffusion. In the last Section we discuss briefly the obtained results and draw final conclusions. \section{Generalized quantum surface diffusion coefficients} \setcounter{equation}{0} We consider a light particle, which performs underbarrier hopping to the nearest adsorption site, oscillates between ground and excited states within the potential well, and interacts with the lattice vibrations. Hamiltonian of the system is chosen as follows ~\cite{JCP1,JCP2} \bea\label{H} H=H_A+H_{int}+H_B, \eea where the adsorbate is described by the two-band constituent \bea\label{H_A} H_A\!\!=\!\!\! \sum_{\langle ss'\rangle}(-t_ 0 a^{\dagger}_{s 0}a_{s' 0}+t_1 a^{\dagger}_{s 1}a_{s' 1})\! +\!\! \sum_s\!\frac{\hbar\Omega}{2}(n_{s 1}-n_{s 0}). \eea Here $s$ denotes the site of the lattice; 0 and 1 are the ground and excited states within a given well, and $\langle ss'\rangle$ denotes a sum over the nearest-neighbor sites. The quantum states within a well are referred to as ``vibrational'' ones with the vibrational frequency $\Omega$. $a^{\dagger}_{s i}$ ($a_{s i}$) creates (destroys) a particle on the site $s$ in the vibrational state $i$; $n_{s i}=a^{\dagger}_{s i}a_{s i}$ is the number operator for this state, and $n_{s}=n_{s 0}+n_{s 1}$. Hereafter we will deal with a single adparticle only, hence the adparticle statistics becomes irrelevant. $t_0$ and $t_1$ are the nearest-neighbor tunnel\-ling amplitudes in the ground and the first excited states, respectively, and we expect that $t_1\gg t_0$. The coupling to phonons is considered to be local within each well. Phonons may couple both to the adsorbate density operators and to the vibrations within a quantum well. The interaction Hamiltonian is \cite{JCP1} \bea\nonumber\label{H_int}&&H_{int}=\sum_{s}\!\left\{\! n_ s\sum_q\gamma_{s q}(b_q+b^{\dagger}_q)+(a^{\dagger}_{s 0}a_{s 1}+ a^{\dagger}_{s 1} a_{s 0})\right. \\ &&\left.\times\sum_q \chi_{s q}(b_q+b^{\dagger}_q)\!\right\}, \eea where $b^{\dagger}_q$ ($b_q$) creates (destroys) a phonon with a normal mode frequency $\omega_q$. The strengths $\gamma_{s q}$ ($\chi_{s q}$) describe coupling of phonons to the density (oscillation) modes of the adsorbate. The bandwidths $t_0$, $t_1$ and vibrational frequency $\Omega$ can be evaluated in the framework of the eigenvector-eigenvalue problem for a periodic potential, felt by an adsorbate due to the static lattice. The coupling strengths are expressed via the mean values $\Gamma=\langle s,i|V_{int}^s|s,j\rangle$ of the lattice distortion potential $V_{int}^s$ over the localized Wannier states $|s,j\rangle$ times the phase factor depending on the site number $s$ and wave-vector $q$ \cite{JCP1}. Likewise, we suppose $\Gamma$ to be the same for different quantum states $ \{i,j\}=\{0,1\}$ and use the dimensionless coupling parameter \bea\label{Gamma} G=\frac{\Gamma^2}{M\omega^3_{max}} \eea to characterize the ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction. Here $\omega_{max}$ stands for the Debye frequency, and $M$ denotes the mass of the substrate atom. The last term in Eq.~(\ref{H}) \bea\label{H_B} H_B=\sum_q\hbar\omega_q b^{\dagger}_q b_q \eea corresponds to the phonon bath; longitudinal acoustic phonons only are taken into account in this model. Since the tunnelling amplitudes are always much smaller than the coupling strengths, the interaction part of Hamiltonian (\ref{H_int}) cannot be considered as a perturbation and has to be taken into account exactly. The most refined method consists in performing unitary transformations in order to exclude the linear over the interaction terms from the system Hamiltonian. In the unitary transformed Hamiltonian the tunnelling processes can be considered as those with emmision/adsorption of the vir\-tual phonons, and the same is true for the vibrational processes. It is also useful to pass to the hybrid set of states for each site: \bea\label{a_LR} a_{s {L\atop R}}\equiv \frac{1}{\sqrt 2}(a_{s 0}\pm a_{s 1}),\eea and similarly for the creation operators. The designation $L$ or $R$ means that a single adparticle is now localized on the left or right side of the given well. We will refer to the vibrational transitions with $i\ne j$, $\{i,j\}=\{L,R\}$, as the end-changing processes, supplying them afterwards by the subscript (c), and transitions with $i=j$ will be termed as the end-preserving ones with the corresponding subscript (p). Using the method of the reduced density matrix \cite{MorozovBook} it is possible \cite{JCP2,PRE2009,PRE2011} to obtain the chain of quantum kinetic equations for diagonal $f_{s,s}(t)=\sum_{i=L,R}\langle a^{\dagger}_{s i} a_{s i}\rangle^t_S$ and off-diagonal $f_{s,s'}(t)=\sum_{i=L,R}\langle a^{\dagger}_{s' i} a_{s i}\rangle^t_S$ one-particle non-equilibrium distribution functions, where the averaging is taken with the statistical operator $\rho_S(t)$ of the adsorbate. These integro-differential equations are linear in $f_{s,s}(t)$, $f_{s,s'}(t)$ but are non-local in time; hence it is useful to perform the Laplace transformation $\tilde f(z)=\int_0^{\infty}\exp(-z t)f(t) dt$. Solving the equations for the off-diagonal distribution functions and inserting the obtained results into the equation for the diagonal ones, one can obtain \cite{PRE2009,PRE2011} an expression for the generalized (frequency dependent) diffusion coefficient: \bea\label{Dgen} &&\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\tilde D(z)=\tilde D_{coh}(z)+D_{in}(z)\nonumber \\ &&\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!= \frac{a^2}{4}\!\left[\frac{2 t_{inter}^2/\hbar^2}{z+\tilde{\gamma}_{inter}(z)+\tilde{\gamma}_{intra}(z)+\tilde{\gamma}_{LL}^+(z)} +\tilde{\gamma}_{inter}(z)\right]. \eea The first term $\tilde D_{coh}(z)$ in (\ref{Dgen}) describes a coherent contribution to the generalized diffusion coefficient. It can be interpreted \cite{JCP2,PRE2009} in terms of a simple model of band-type motion limited by scattering from the lattice (with interatomic spacing $a$) at temperatures large relative to the bandwidth $t_{inter}$, which is narrowed due to polaronic effect. The kinetic kernel \bea\label{GamInter} \tilde{\gamma}_{inter}(z)=4\tilde{\gamma}_{LL}(z)+2\tilde{\gamma}_{LR}(z)+2\tilde{\gamma}_{RL}(z)\eea corresponds to the dissipative intersite motion of the adsorbate and describes processes, when the adparticle performs random site-to-site hopping (with or without the change of its quantum state) owing to the interaction with the bath. The kinetic kernel $\tilde{\gamma}_{intra}(z)$ in Eq.~(\ref{Dgen}) describes a dissipative intrasite dynamics, when the adsorbate during its scattering from the lattice gets enough energy from the bath to be excited from the ground state to the upper level within the same adsorption site (the opposite process of particle de-excitation with a phonon emission is also taken into consideration). The second term $\tilde{D}_{in}(z)$ in Eq.~(\ref{Dgen}) is an incoherent contribution to the generalized diffusion coefficient. This is the result expected from the random walk model for diffusion with site-to-site hopping rate $\tilde{\gamma}_{inter}(z)$, describ\-ing processes of the surface phonon creation/annihilation, when the particle performs a transition from one Wannier state to another. The rates $\tilde{\gamma}_{intra}(z)$, $\tilde{\gamma}_{inter}(z)$ can be obtained from the Laplace transformation of the kinetic kernels \be\label{Gamx} \gamma_x(\tau)=\omega_{max}\lambda_x^2 \mbox{Re}\{\exp[ -(\varphi_x(0)-\varphi_x(\tau))]-\exp[-\varphi_x(0)]\}, \ee \be\label{GamLLPlus} \gamma_{LL}^+(\tau)\!=\omega_{max}t_{1}^2 \mbox{Re}\{\exp[ -(\varphi_{LL}(0)+\varphi_{LL}(\tau))]-\exp[-\varphi_{LL}(0)]\},\ee where \bea\label{phi} \varphi_x(\tau)\!=\!\!\!\int\limits_{0}^1\!\!\frac{J_x(\omega)}{\omega^2}\!\left[\coth\!\left( \frac{\hbar\omega}{2 k_B T}\!\right)\!\cos(\omega \tau)-i\sin(\omega \tau) \!\right],\eea and one-particle parameters $\lambda_x=\{t_1,\Omega\}$ are related to the corresponding end-changing/end-preserving processes (see also Table in Ref.~\cite{PRE2009}). The exponential form of the rates (\ref{Gamx})-(\ref{GamLLPlus}) is a result of averag\-ing of the lattice time correlation functions \cite{JCP2,PRE2009} over the bath variables that yields the temperature dependent factor in Eq.~(\ref{phi}). Hereafter we use dimensionless frequencies in the units of $\omega_{max}$ and temperatures in the units of $\hbar\omega_{max}/k_B$. The ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction enters the kinetic rates via spectral weight functions \cite{JCP1,JCP2,PRE2009,PRE2011} \be\label{Jintra} J(\omega)=\sum\limits_q\chi^2_{s q}\delta(\omega-\omega_q), \ee \vspace*{-5mm} \bea\label{Jc}\nonumber J_{LR}(\omega)\!=\!\!\sum\limits_q\left[(\gamma_{s q}-\gamma_{s' q})\!+\!(\chi_{s q}+\chi_{s' q}) \right]^2\!\delta(\omega-\omega_q), \\ \\ \nonumber J_{RL}(\omega)\!=\!\!\sum\limits_q\left[(\gamma_{s q}-\gamma_{s' q})\!-\!(\chi_{s q}+\chi_{s' q}) \right]^2\!\delta(\omega-\omega_q), \eea \bea\label{Jp}\nonumber J_{LL}(\omega)\!=\!\!\sum\limits_q\left[(\gamma_{s q}-\gamma_{s' q})\!+\!(\chi_{s q}-\chi_{s' q}) \right]^2\!\delta(\omega-\omega_q), \\ \\ \nonumber J_{RR}(\omega)\nonumber\!=\!\!\sum\limits_q\left[(\gamma_{s q}-\gamma_{s' q})\!-\!(\chi_{s q}-\chi_{s' q}) \right]^2\!\delta(\omega-\omega_q). \eea The function (\ref{Jintra}) describes the intrasite dynamics; the functions (\ref{Jc}) are related to the intersite end-changing processes, while (\ref{Jp}) are dealt with the intersite end-preserving processes. The spectral weight function (\ref{Jintra}) can be considered as site-independent if the system has a translational symmetry, whereas the functions (\ref{Jc})-(\ref{Jp}) depend only on the distance $|s-s'|$ between the nearest neighbor sites $s$ and $s'$ \cite{JCP1,PRE2011}. The system dynamics is governed by the low frequency behavior of the spectral weight functions (\ref{Jintra})-(\ref{Jp}). In Refs.~\cite{JCP1,JCP2,PRE2009,PRE2011} they were chosen to be scaled as \bea\label{JJc} J_c(\omega)\approx \Theta(\omega-\omega_0)\Theta(\omega_{max}-\omega)\eta_c\omega^{D-2}, \eea for the end-changing, and \bea\label{JJp} J_p(\omega)\approx \Theta(\omega-\omega_0)\Theta(\omega_{max}-\omega)\eta_c\omega^{D},\eea for the end-preserving processes with $\eta_c=10 G$, $\eta_p=12.5 G$, and $\Theta(x)$ denoting the Heaviside step function. In Eqs.~(\ref{JJc})-(\ref{JJp}) the power index $D$ equals the system dimensionality. Thus, for a two-dimensional lattice the end-changing spectral weight functions are sub-Ohmic, while the end-preserving ones are super-Ohmic \cite{Leggett}. Such a behavior is a consequence of the equality of the coupling strengths $\Gamma$ for all the quantum states. Moreover, the lattice is assumed to possess a nonzero lowest frequency $\omega_0$, which is introduced to take into account the finite size of the system. It not only removes the divergencies \cite{Leggett}, when the sub-Ohmic spectral functions have the power index $n = 0$, but also allows one to describe the adsorbate-induced surface reconstruction \cite{JCP1}, when the particles become self-trapped due to the overlap of lattice distortions. We would like to note that a sharp cut-off of the spectral weight functions at the Debye frequency $\omega_{max}$ is not a unique one, and plain exponential \cite{Leggett} or algebraic \cite{Weiss} cut-offs are also used. However, the obtained results are found to be rather insensitive to the cut-off form, being governed above all by the low frequency behavior of $J(\omega)$. In the next Section we will consider other values of the power index $n$ in the expressions for spectral weight functions and discuss their relation to the processes of different physical nature. Here we would like to emphasize that there is a one-\-to-\-one correspondence between the low frequency behavior of $J(\omega)$ and the long-time relaxation of the kinetic kernels (\ref{Gamx}). It was pointed out in Ref.~\cite{PRE2011} that at large times we pass from a Gaussian form for $\gamma_x(\tau)$ (for the sub-Ohmic processes with $n=0$) through exponential relaxation of kinetic kernels (for the Ohmic processes) to the power law behavior (in the super-Ohmic case with $n=2$). To conclude this Section, let us note that at a reasonable assumption of an infinitesimal value of the tunnel\-ling amplitude in comparison with vibrational frequency, $t_{1}\ll\hbar\Omega$, the expression (\ref{Dgen}) for the generalized diffusion coefficient can be simplified and presented as follows \bea\label{Dgen1} &&\tilde D(z)\approx \frac{a^2 t_1^2}{2\hbar^2}\left[\frac{\exp(-\varphi_p(0))}{z+\Omega^2\tilde{\gamma}_{c}(z)} +2\left(\tilde{\gamma}_{c}(z)+\tilde{\gamma}_{p}(z)\right)\right], \eea where $\tilde{\gamma}_c(z)$ and $\tilde{\gamma}_p(z)$ mean the Laplace transforms of the end-changing (evaluated with spectral weight functions (\ref{JJc})) and end-preserving (evaluated with spectral weight functions (\ref{JJp})) kernels (\ref{Gamx}) times factor $1/\omega_{max} \lambda_x^2$. A generic form for the coherent contribution to $\tilde D(z)$ has a structure similar to Eq.~(\ref{Dgen1}) even if the other kinds of interaction (like electronic friction and/or anharmonic coupling to phonon subsystem) are taken into account. In the very general case, a denominator in the expression for $\tilde D_{coh}(z)$ will consist of several terms of different physical origin, which describe the vibrational transitions of the adsorbate within the well. In Sec.~IV we attribute the T-mode to the coherent part of the generalized diffusion coefficient, and explore Eq.~(\ref{Dgen1}) to study in detail its features at different types of the ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction. \section{Correlation functions of the thermal bath random forces} \setcounter{equation}{0} We can look at the problem of quantum surface diffusion from another viewpoint. Making use of the solution of the Heisenberg equations of motion for the external degrees of freedom \cite{Chaos27} one can derive the so-called generalized quantum Langevin equation \cite{T-mode-2,Chaos} \bea\label{GQLE} M\ddot{q}(t)+M\int\limits_{t_0}^t\gamma(t-\tau)\dot{q}(\tau)d\tau+\frac{d V(q,t)}{dq}=F_r(t) \eea for the particle with the mass $M$ and a generalized coordinate $q(t)$ moving within the potential $V(q,t)$, where the damping kernel $\gamma(t)$ is expressed via spectral weight function in the following way \bea\label{dkernel} \gamma(t)=\int\limits_{0}^{\infty}\frac{J(\omega)}{\omega}\cos(\omega t)d\omega.\eea The mean value of the operator-valued noise $F_r(t)$ is zero \bea\label{moment1} \langle F_r(t)\rangle_{bath}=0, \eea whereas the time correlation function of the thermal bath random forces can be expressed as follows \bea\label{moment2}\nonumber S_{FF}(t)=\frac{1}{2}\langle F_r(t)F_r(0)+F_r(0)F_r(t)\rangle_{bath}\\ =\frac{M}{\pi}\int\limits_0^{\infty}\frac{J(\omega)}{\omega}\hbar\omega\coth\left(\frac{\hbar\omega}{2 k_B T}\right)\cos(\omega t)d\omega.\eea In the classical limit it converts to the non-Markovian Einstein relation \bea\label{moment2M} S_{FF}^{cl}(t)=M k_B T \gamma(t), \eea where the average in Eqs.~(\ref{moment1})-(\ref{moment2}) is taken with respect to a bath density matrix, which contains shifted oscillators \cite{Chaos}. The relation (\ref{moment2}) implies that modelling of quantum dissipation in the system is possible in terms of macroscopic quantities such as the friction kernel $\gamma(t)$ and temperature $T$. A class of such systems is by no means restricted to the ``adparticle -- linear Debye phonons'' coup\-ling. One can give examples of several types of the ``adsorbate-substrate'' coupling, which are closely related to the low frequency behavior of the spectral weight functions. They range from the systems with a flicker noise \cite{SubOhmic,YK} with $J(\omega)\sim\omega^0$ (like the end-changing spectral functions (\ref{JJc})) through the Ohmic coupling with $J(\omega)\sim\omega^1$, when one takes into account the electronic friction and/or anharmonic terms in ``adsorbate-substrate'' interaction \cite{MorozovBook,Weiss}, to the super-Ohmic systems with $J(\omega)\sim\omega^2$, when coupling to surface Debye phonons is considered \cite{JCP1,PRE2011} (see also the end-preserving spectral functions (\ref{JJp})). At any ohmicity it is useful to introduce the correlation time $\tau_{cor}$ which defines the decay rate of correlation functions (\ref{moment2})-(\ref{moment2M}) of the thermal bath random forces. In other words, at times about $\tau_{cor}$ the excess energy of the lattice relaxes. For instance, in the systems with flicker noise, the corresponding time correlation functions (\ref{moment2M}) have the residual correlations $\tau_{cor}\sim\omega_0^{-1}$ in damping kernels, \bea\label{Tcorr0}\gamma(t)\sim-\eta_c Ci(\omega_0 t), \quad Ci(z)=\int\limits_z^{\infty} dt\frac{\cos t}{t}.\eea The sub-Ohmic case (\ref{Tcorr0}) with the power index $n=0$ implies an introduction of the lower limit $\omega_0$ of frequency, $0<\omega_0\ll\omega_{max}$, which is related to the inverse time of the experiment duration \cite{YK}, or dealt with the finiteness of the system size \cite{JCP1,PRE2009,PRE2011} (see also Eqs.~(\ref{JJc})-(\ref{JJp}) and subsequent explanation). The Ohmic systems have a white-noise-like behavior $\gamma(t)\sim \eta_c\delta(t)$, and there are ultra-short range time correlations in the super-Ohmic case. The super-Ohmic coupling with the power indexes $n>2$ is beyond our consideration. The cases of non-integer $n$, which are typical for fractal systems, will be considered solely for the reason of proper convergence of the numerical calculations. In particular, in the next Section we consider the ohmicity indexes $n=\epsilon$, and $n=2-\epsilon$ with $\epsilon\ll 1$. An alternative way is to use the lower bound cut-off frequency $\omega_0$, as it is done in Sec.~V, where the analytical expressions for the T-mode features in the quasi-classical limit are obtained. There is also another typical time scale of the system dynamics -- the relaxation time $\tau_v$ of the velocity autocorrelation functions. This time will be introduced in the next Section, and along with $\tau_{cor}$ will be used for explanation of the direction of the temperature induced shift of the T-mode on the basis of a comparative analysis between $\tau_{cor}$ and $\tau_v$. \section{T-mode as a coherent part of the generalized diffusion coefficient} \setcounter{equation}{0} As has been already said, the T-mode of the adsorbate is being detected in IHAS experiments as an additional (inelastic) peak in the dynamic structure factor. Thus, to predict theoretically the T-mode features one has to evaluate the dynamic structure factor \bea\label{Sfactor}\nonumber S({\bf k},\omega)=\frac{1}{2\pi}\int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty} \exp^{-i\omega t}I({\bf k},t)dt \\ =\frac{1}{2\pi}\int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-i\omega t} \langle e^{-i{\bf k}\cdot{\bf R}(0)} e^{i{\bf k}\cdot{\bf R}(t)}\rangle dt, \eea which is nothing but the Fourier transform of the intermediate scattering function $I({\bf k},t)$. In Ref.~\cite{T-mode-2} the model of a damped quantum harmonic oscillator bilinearly coupled to a bath of lattice oscillators has been proposed. Non-Markovian equations of motion for the creation/anihilation operators of the adsorbate have been derived, which have a form of the generalized Langevin equation (\ref{GQLE}). The dynamic structure factor of the adsorbate has been found with taking into consideration the memory effects. Temperature dependences of the frequency of the inelastic peak of $S({\bf k},\omega)$ and its full width on half maximum (FWHM) have been studied in detail. Though an investigation of the T-mode features using the dynamic structure factor is closely related to scattering experiments, this approach can sometimes be complicated due to the overlap of quasi-elastic and inelastic peaks. It happens, for instance \cite{PhysA195}, in the quasi-continuous regime of adsorbate motion, at small fric\-tion and high values of $k$, when the quasi-elastic peak of $S({\bf k},\omega)$, dealt with diffusion of the adsorbate, becomes low and broad and cannot be well separated from the inelastic peak at the vibrational frequency $\Omega$. The inelastic peak also becomes indistinguishable at strong coupling due to the impossibility of completing coherent oscillations in the wells. In such a case, investigation of the T-mode features using the Fourier transform $\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)=1/2\pi\,\mbox{Re}\left[\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}e^{i\omega t}C_{vv}(t) dt \right]$ of the velocity autocorrelation function $C_{vv}(t)$ looks more promising, being focused on the adsorbate motion at the bottom of the potential well. For instance, $\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)$ reveals the adsorbate motion in the potential wells also in the overdamped regime at high barriers, when, in spite of large friction, the particle can perform small parts of oscillations with unthermalized velocity \cite{PhysA195}. On the other hand, $\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)$ can be easily obtained from the dynamic structure factor by a simple relation \cite{SurScience311} \bea\label{CtoS}\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)=\omega^2\lim_{k\to 0}\frac{S({\bf k},\omega)}{{\bf k^2}}.\eea It has been pointed out in our previous papers \cite{PRE2009,PRE2011} that the generalized diffusion coefficients are directly related to the velocity autocorrelation function $C_{vv}(t)$, determined at the adsorption site $s$. We will follow this rule, having dealt a time-dependent diffusion coefficient $D(t)$ with $C_{vv}(t)$. Such a definition of the gene\-ralized diffusion coefficient differs from that used in Ref.~\cite{aging}, where the relation $\bar D(t)=\int_0^t C_{vv}(u)du$ has been adopted. However, it is much more useful since it allows one to associate the time of decay of $D(t)$ with the relaxation time $\tau_v$ of the velocity autocorrelation function. On the other hand, the zero frequency limit $D_{exp}=\pi\lim_{\omega\to 0}\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)=\int_0^{\infty} D(t)dt$ determines the experimentally measured diffusion coefficients $D_{exp}$, whose temperature dependence has been studied quite profoundly \cite{Ferrando,single}. In Ref.~\cite{PRE2011} it has been shown that there is a close relation (at least, within the model proposed) between the adparticle dynamics at intermediate times $\tau\ll\tau_v$ and temperature dependence of the diffusion coefficients. Namely, as the coupling strength increases, the adparticle motion (initially oscillatory) becomes more and more smooth, indicating that the temperature behavior of the diffusion coefficients $D_{exp}(T)$ should change from weakly dependent on $T$ to quite a sensitive function of temperature. The oscillatory behavior of the generalized diffusion coefficient has been related to the T-mode onset. In the frequency representation, oscillations of $C_{vv}(t)$ yield the side wings of $\mbox{Re}[\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)]$, localized in the vicinity of the vibrational frequency $\Omega$. The T-mode frequency was found to increase with temperature (see Fig.~3 in Ref.~\cite{PRE2011}). The corresponding side peak of $\mbox{Re}[\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)]$ should be {\it blue}-shifted too. \begin{figure}[htb] \centerline{\includegraphics[height=0.27\textheight]{ignatyuk1.ps}} \caption{Frequency dependence of the Fourier transform of velocity autocorrelation function at Debye temperature $T_D= \hbar\omega_{max}/k_B$, ohmicity index $n=0$, and parameters $t_{1}/\hbar\omega_{max}=10^{-5}$, $\omega_0/\omega_{max}=10^{-4}$, $\eta_c= 10^{-2}$, $\Omega/\omega_{max}=1/\sqrt{2}$.} \label{Tmode(omega)} \end{figure} Thus, there are two peaks of different physical origin in the Fourier transform $\mbox{Re}[\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)]$ of the velocity autocorrelation function, presented in Fig.~\ref{Tmode(omega)}. The central one, localized at $\omega=0$, is related to the processes of adsorbate site-to-site random hopping. This peak is determined by the incoherent contribution \bea\label{Din-t} D_{in}(t)=(a t_{1}/h)^2\mbox{Re}\left[ \gamma_c(t)+\gamma_p(t) \right] \eea to the generalized diffusion coefficient. In a weak coup\-ling limit, at hight temperatures, and at large times the end-changing kinetic kernels decay as \bea\label{PhicApprox} \gamma_c(\tau)\sim\exp\left[-\eta_c|\ln\omega_0|\left(k_B T\tau^2+i\tau \right) \right],\eea while the end-preserving ones decay as \bea\label{PhipApprox1} \gamma_p(\tau)\sim \Theta(\omega_0^{-1}-t)\left(1/\tau^{2\eta_p k_B T}-\omega_0^{2\eta_p k_B T}\right).\eea It is seen from Eqs.~(\ref{PhicApprox})-(\ref{PhipApprox1}) that the relaxation law of the kinetic kernels changes from the Gaussian behavior for the sub-Ohmic case with $n=0$ to the truncated long tails for the super-Ohmic case with $n=2$. It is also easy to show that the kinetic kernels in the Ohmic regime behave as \bea\label{PhiOhmicApprox} \gamma_c(\tau)\sim\exp(-\pi\eta_c T \tau).\eea In a weak coupling limit and at the vibrational frequency large enough there is also an additional maximum of $\mbox{Re}[\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)]$. This peak is determined by the adsorbate scattering from the substrate atoms \cite{JCP2} and corresponds to recrossing processes dealt with the adparticle nonmonotonic dissipative motion \cite{PRE2009,PRE2011}. Hence, a side peak arises due to the coherent contribution to the generalized surface diffusion coefficient (\ref{Dgen1}). The expression for frequency dependence of the T-mode, associated with the above mentioned maximum of $\mbox{Re}[\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)]$ can be easily obtained from Eq.~(\ref{Dgen1}), putting $z=-i\omega+0^+$ \bea\label{TmodeGen} \nonumber &&\tilde C_{vv}^{coh}(\omega)\equiv\mbox{Re}\left[\tilde D_{coh}(\omega)\right]\\ &&= \frac{a^2 t_{inter}^2}{4\hbar^2} \frac{2 R(\omega)}{\left[ \omega-\Omega^2 I(\omega)\right ]^2+\Omega^4 R(\omega)^2},\\ \nonumber && I(\omega)=\int\limits_0^{\infty}\gamma_c(t)\sin(\omega t)dt,\quad R(\omega)=\int\limits_0^{\infty}\gamma_c(t)\cos(\omega t)dt. \eea It is seen from Eq.~(\ref{TmodeGen}) that the T-mode localization in the vicinity of the vibrational frequency $\Omega$ is determined by $I(\omega)$, whereas the T-mode width depends on $R(\omega)$. Let us study the time dependence of the coherent contribution to the generalized diffusion coefficient in more detail. Performing the inverse Laplace transformation, one can obtain the following expression: \bea\label{inverseL}\nonumber && \!\!\!D_{coh}(t)=\!\mbox{Re}\!\left[ \frac{(a t_{inter})^2}{2\pi i\hbar^2}\lim_{\epsilon\to 0}\!\!\int\limits_{\epsilon-i\infty}^{\epsilon+i\infty}\!\! dz\exp(z t)\frac{1}{z+\Omega^2\tilde{\gamma}_{c}(z)}\right] \\ &&\!\!\!=\left(\frac{a t_{inter}}{\hbar}\right)^2\mbox{Re}\left[ \sum_{i=1}^{\infty}\exp(z_i t)\frac{1}{1+\Omega^2\tilde{\gamma}'_{c}(z_i)}\right].\eea The summation in (\ref{inverseL}) in accordance with the residue theorem runs over all poles $z_i$ of the integrand, which obey the condition $\mbox{Re} [z_i]<0$. In a general case, the summation is extended to the infinite number of poles, and the major contribution comes from terms with maxi\-mal values of $\mbox{Re}[z_i]$ and weight factors $[1+\tilde{\gamma}'_c(z_i)]^{-1}$. The expression for $D_{coh}(t)$ can be even more complicated if one deals with higher order poles. Indeed, when the temperature increases, the 2-nd order poles (with rather small weight factors) appear in the integrand. Even though the high order contributions to $D_{coh}(t)$ have a form similar to anharmonic corrections to the velocity autocorrelation function \cite{T-mode-1}, their physical nature is definitely different. Basically, they are of non-Markovian origin, while a skewness of the T-mode peak in Ref.~\cite{T-mode-1} arises due to the anharmonicity of the local lattice potential. Just as relaxation times of the incoherent contributions $D_{in}(t)$ to the generalized diffusion coefficients depend on the ohmicity of the system (see Eqs.~(\ref{Din-t})-(\ref{PhiOhmicApprox})), the damping rates $|\mbox{Re}\,z_i|$ in (\ref{inverseL}) also change over the large range of values depending on nature of the ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction. An additional study shows that at fixed parameters of the model there is a strong inequality, $\mbox{Max}\{\mbox{Re}[z_i(n=0)]\}\ll \mbox{Max}\{\mbox{Re}[z_i(n=1)]\}\ll\mbox{Max}\{\mbox{ Re}[z_i(n=2)]\}$, $\mbox{Re}[z_i(n)]<0$, ordering the damping rates of the coherent term $D_{coh}(t)$ subject to the ohmicity index $n$. Turning back to Fig.~\ref{Tmode(omega)}, let us point out that the T-mode width, which defines the inverse life-time of this one-particle excitation, can increase for two different reasons. At fixed temperature the T-peak is broadened when the ``adsorbate--substrate'' coupling increases, and the coherent motion of the adparticle diminishes. Contrary, one can keep the coupling fixed and increase the system temperature, ``switching on'' more and more bath oscillators until their number reaches the maximum at the Debye temperature $T_D=\hbar\omega_{max}/k_B$. In such a case not only the T-mode width increases due to higher dissipation, but also the peak position shifts with temperature. The temperature dependence of the T-mode frequency and its FWHM are shown in Figs.~\ref{sub-Ohmic}-\ref{Ohmic}. In the sub- and super-Ohmic regimes we used the power indexes $n=0.03$ and $n=1.97$ (which slightly deviate from the corresponding integer values 0 and 2) to eliminate the lower bound cut-off frequency $\omega_0$. The others fitting para\-meters (the vibrational frequency $\Omega$ and the coupling strength $\eta_c$) are chosen to reproduce the experimental data \cite{T-mode-2}. It is seen from Fig.~\ref{sub-Ohmic} that in a strong sub-Ohmic regime the T-mode frequency is {\it blue}-shifted with $T$ up to temperatures of about $\hbar\Omega/k_B$, where the T-mode frequency becomes a descending function of temperature. \begin{figure}[htb] \centerline{\includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{ignatyuk2.ps} \includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{ignatyuk3.ps}} \caption{Left panel: temperature dependence of the T-mode frequency in the sub-Ohmic regime with $n=0.03$, dimensionless vibrational frequency $\Omega/\omega_{max}=0.2$ and coupling constant $\eta_c=0.002$. Right panel: temperature dependence of the T-mode FWHM at the same parameters.} \label{sub-Ohmic} \end{figure} The T-mode FWHM is found to be a nonlinear function of $T$ at all temperatures studied. At $k_B T/\hbar\omega_{max}\sim 0.4$ the T-mode becomes very broad in spite of very small coup\-ling, and almost disappears from the spectrum function $\mbox{Re}[\tilde C_{vv}(\omega)]$ (see next Section for analytic estimations). To explain the T-mode {\it blue}-shift at low-to-moderate temperatures let us recall that in the sub-Ohmic regime with $n=0$ there are residual correlations of the flicker noise \cite{YK}. The correlation time $\tau_{cor}$ of the thermal bath random forces is much larger than the relaxation time $\tau_{v}$ of the velocity autocorrelation functions (see Eqs.~(\ref{PhicApprox}), (\ref{inverseL})). Thus, a non-relaxed energy of the lattice is being delivered to the adparticle increasing its effective vibrational energy until the inverse process begins at the temperatures of about $\hbar\Omega/k_B$. \begin{figure}[htb] \centerline{\includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{ignatyuk4.ps} \includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{ignatyuk5.ps}} \caption{Left panel: temperature dependence of the T-mode frequency in the super-Ohmic regime with $n=1.97$, dimensionless vibrational frequency $\Omega/\omega_{max}=0.2$ and coupling constant $\eta_c=0.166$. Right panel: temperature dependence of the T-mode FWHM at the same parameters.} \label{super-Ohmic} \end{figure} In Fig.~\ref {super-Ohmic} we present the results for the T-mode tempe\-ra\-tu\-re induced shift and broadening in the strong super-Ohmic regime. There are ultra-short range time correlations $\tau_{cor}$ of the thermal bath random forces at super-Ohmic coupling \cite{Weiss}, and much longer times $\tau_v$ at which the velocity of the adparticle decays (see Eqs.~(\ref{PhipApprox1}), (\ref{inverseL})). In such a case the excess energy of the adsorbate is being transferred to the lattice, yielding a decrease of the effective vibrational energy of the adparticle with temperature and, consequently, the {\it red}-shift of the T-mode frequency. The FWHM of the T-mode accommodates to almost a linear function of temperature after a short transition regime at low $T$. At the Ohmic coupling (see Fig.~\ref{Ohmic}) the T-mode is slightly {\it blue}-shifted with temperature, and its FWHM is a linear function of $T$ like in the super-Ohmic case. At the Ohmic coupling the difference between two typical times $\tau_{cor}$ and $\tau_v$ is smaller than in the other regimes. As a result, the T-mode shift is also smaller than in the sub- or super-Ohmic regimes (at the same values of the parameters of the model), which will be shown in the next Section. Such a behavior is consistent with the experimental data of Ref.~\cite{Gadzuk} where the e-h pair contribution (with a weak Ohmic coupling \cite{MorozovBook}) was found to be almost independent of temperature. \begin{figure}[htb] \centerline{\includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{ignatyuk6.ps} \includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{ignatyuk7.ps}} \caption{Left panel: temperature dependence of the T-mode frequency in the Ohmic regime with dimensionless vibrational frequency $\Omega/\omega_{max}=0.141$ and coupling constant $\eta_c=0.0066$. Right panel: temperature dependence of the T-mode FWHM at the same parameters.} \label{Ohmic} \end{figure} Summing up this Section, we would like to discuss the difference between our approach and the one used in Ref.~\cite{T-mode-2} when studying the temperature behavior of the adsorbate T-mode. In Ref.~\cite{T-mode-2} two fitting parameters were used, which characterize the behavior of the spectral weight function $J_x(\omega)$ times a thermal population factor in the vicinity of the T-mode frequency. These parameters were found to depend very weakly on the surface temperature for the three systems studied. Moreover, the dynamic structure factor itself has been calculated in the Wigner-Weisskopff approximation \cite{Micha19}. That introduced an additional inaccuracy in the description of the system dynamics at intermediate times, when the memory effects have to be taken into account rigorously \cite{PRE2009,PRE2011}. Even though in Ref.~\cite{T-mode-2} the quantum model for the adsorbate motion has been proposed, further calculations were carried out in the impulsive collision approximation without reference to the driving Hamiltonian term. The influence of non-selective measurements (e.g. collisions) on the evolution of quantum system was considered more precisely in \cite{Zeno}, where the short- and long-time dynamics of the adsorbate has been studied in the context of quantum Zeno and anti-Zeno effects, however, without taking into account the tunnelling-mediated surface diffusion and memory effects. In our paper we consider a more general case when the ``driving force'' is dealt with slow underbarrier site-to-site hopping of the adsorbate and should be treated on equal footing with other interaction mechanisms. The interaction term (\ref{H_int}) of Hamiltonian is not of a bilinear form in creation/annihilation operators. It takes into account coupling both to density and oscillation modes of the adsorbate that corresponds to more realistic systems \cite{Ferrando,JCP1}. Neither a power series expansion for the spectral weight functions at vibration frequency $\Omega$ nor any approximation for the kinetic kernels (like the Wigner-Weisskopff one) are made in our paper. As a result, we manage to describe the T-mode behavior quite accurately using only one fitting parameter - the dimensionless coupling constant. It is shown in the next Section that its value can be extracted from the residual \cite{T-mode-2} shift and broadening of the T-mode at zero temperature. \section{An analytical evaluation of the T-mode temperature dependence} \setcounter{equation}{0} Analytical results can be obtained in the zero temperature and high temperature limits. In the first case, a thermal population factor from Eq.~(\ref{phi}) is eliminated. On the other hand, at high temperatures the thermal population factor can be approximated as $\coth(\hbar\omega/2 k_B T)\approx 2 k_B T/\hbar\omega$. Then using the long time asymptotics (\ref{PhicApprox})-(\ref{PhiOhmicApprox}) for the kinetic kernels instead of the exact expressions (\ref{Gamx}) we can obtain analytical expressions for the T-mode frequency and FWHM. \subsection{Zero temperature limit} In the Ohmic regime and in the weak coupling limit $\eta_c\ll 1$ the following expression for the T-mode frequency is valid \bea\label{zeroW} \omega_T(0)=\sqrt{\Omega^2- \Delta(0)^2/4}, \eea that coincides with the expression for the frequency of the damped harmonic oscillator. The expression (\ref{zeroW}) for the T-mode localization frequency defines a shift that can be referred to as the residual one, insofar it is present even at 0 K. The corresponding residual (or intrinsic) FWHM in the sub- and Ohmic regimes ($n\le 1$) is scaled as \bea\label{zeroD} \Delta(0)\sim\eta_c\Omega^n. \eea The damping coefficient (\ref {zeroD}) is not zero in the $T\to 0$ limit, because the excited adsorbate can transfer its energy to the lattice, induce excitations from the zero-point motions of the lattice modes, or create e-h excitations in the electron distribution. Let us note that the scaling law (\ref {zeroD}) for the T-mode FWHM agrees completely with the results of Ref.~\cite{T-mode-2} obtained in the zero temperature limit. Besides, a practical significance of such results becomes quite clear: inspect\-ing the T-mode localization, one can draw a conclusion about the vibrational frequency $\Omega$ whereas FWHM includes the information about the ``adsorbate--substrate'' coup\-ling strength $\eta_c$. Our model does not admit a straight zero temperature limit in the super-Ohmic regime because there is no polaron band narrowing in such a case \cite{JCP1}, and a new derivation of the coherent term of the generalized diffusion coefficient becomes indispensable. Nevertheless, the obtained results are quite reliable to be used for the analysis of the low temperature T-mode features from both theoretical and experimental viewpoints. \subsection{High temperature limit} \subsubsection{Sub-Ohmic regime with $n=0$} Taking into account the Gaussian form (\ref{PhicApprox}) of the long time asymptotics for the kinetic kernels and Eq.~(\ref{TmodeGen}) for the frequency dependence of the T-mode it is straightforward to obtain the expansion for the T-mode frequency \bea\label{W_T_0} \omega_T(T)=\Omega+\frac{\eta_c T |\ln \omega_0|}{\Omega}\left\{1-\frac{5}{2}\frac{\eta_c T |\ln \omega_0|}{\Omega^2} \right\} \eea as a series in the coupling strength $\eta_c$. The corresponding FWHM $\Delta(T)$ can be written down as \bea\label{D_T_0} \Delta(T)=\frac{\Omega^2 \exp(-\Omega^2/4 \eta_c T |\ln\omega_0|)}{2\sqrt{\eta_c T |\ln\omega_0|}}; \eea it does not admit the $\eta_c$ series expansion. The T-mode FWHM is found to be a nonlinear function of temperature, which agrees completely with the results presented in Fig.~\ref{sub-Ohmic}. Analyzing the T-mode temperature dependence (\ref{W_T_0}) it is possible to find the temperature \bea\label{Tstar} T^*=\frac{\Omega^2}{5\eta_c|\ln\omega_0|}, \eea at which a maximal shift of the T-mode \bea\label{maxShift0} \Delta\omega_T(T^*)\equiv\omega_T(T^*)-\Omega=\frac{1}{10} \Omega \eea takes place. The shift (\ref{maxShift0}) is quite large, and the T-mode FWHM at this temperature \bea\label{maxD0} \Delta(T^*)=\sqrt\frac{5}{4}\exp\left(-\frac{5}{4}\right)\Omega\approx\frac{1}{3}\Omega \eea approaches the vibrational frequency, leading to a rapid decay of the excitation as it is clearly seen in Fig.~\ref{sub-Ohmic}. \subsubsection{Ohmic regime} Analysis of the T-mode temperature dependence at the Ohmic coupling shows that at reasonable values of the vibrational frequency $\Omega$ the T-mode shift \bea\label{W_T_1}\Delta\omega_T(T)=-\frac{(\pi\eta_c T)^2}{2\Omega} \eea is smaller than in sub- or super-Ohmic systems, since the expansion in (\ref{W_T_1}) starts from a quadratic term in the coupling strength. The FWHM is governed by the expression \be\label{D_T_1} \Delta(T)\sim\eta_c T\Omega^{n-1}, \ee which is also valid for the super-Ohmic systems with $1<n\le 2$. It should be stressed that the temperature dependence of the T-mode frequency (\ref{W_T_1}) differs from the results presented in Fig.~\ref{Ohmic}. The T-mode is {\it red}-shifted in accordance with Eq.~(\ref{W_T_1}), whereas the {\it blue}-shift is observed in Fig.~\ref{Ohmic}. An explanation of this contradiction is quite simple: we used the exponential form (\ref{PhiOhmicApprox}) of the kinetic kernel when calculating (\ref{W_T_1}), while at the numerical evaluation we used the exact expression (\ref{Gamx}), which up to 5-10\% differs from asymptotic value (\ref{PhiOhmicApprox}) at short times. This deviation can be considered negligible when calculating the temperature dependence of the diffusion coefficients \cite{JCP2,PRE2011}. But it is not true when one evaluates the temperature dependence of one-particle excitation of the adsorbate, that once more shows the exceptional sensitivity of the T-mode behavior to any kind of approximations. \subsubsection{Super-Ohmic regime with $n=2$} At the super-Ohmic regime with $n=2$, weak coup\-ling limit $\eta_c\ll 1$, and moderate vibrational frequencies $\Omega<\omega_{max}$, the temperature dependence of the T-mode localization can be presented as \bea\label{W_T_2} \omega_T(T)=\Omega+\eta_c T\Omega\ln(2\Omega). \eea It is seen from the last expression that the T-mode is {\it red}-shifted with temperature up to the vibrational frequencies $\Omega/\omega_{max}=1/2$, being at the same time a strongly nonlinear function of $\Omega$. Exact numerical evaluations show that the $\omega_T(T)$-curve at first reaches a plateau as the vibrational frequency increases and then becomes a decreasing function of temperature at $\Omega\sim \omega_{max}/2$. On the other hand, the T-mode FWHM is very small even at the Debye temperature \bea\label{D_T_2} \Delta(k_B T/\hbar\omega_{max}=1)\sim\eta_c\Omega\ll\Omega. \eea Thus, the T-mode is not broadened too much and should be well defined. It is also to be pointed out that in the super-Ohmic regime the T-mode shift is much smaller than that in the sub-Ohmic case, since $\Omega|\ln\Omega|\ll|\ln\omega_0|/\Omega$. Summarizing, the analytic investigation of the T-mode behavior confirms completely the main tendencies observed in Figs.~\ref{sub-Ohmic}-\ref{Ohmic}. Namely: i) a linear increase of the T-mode FWHM with temperature in the Ohmic and super-Ohmic regimes and a non-linear increase of $\Delta(T)$ in the sub-Ohmic regime; ii) the corresponding {\it red}- or {\it blue}-shifts of the T-mode location; iii) a considerable T-mode broaden\-ing in the sub-Ohmic regime even at weak ``adsorbate--substrate'' coupling and a small broadening at $1\le n\le 2$. Since there is a one-to-one correspondence between the system ohmicity and the kind of the coupling, one can deduce about a nature of the ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction from the temperature induced shift of the T-mode. When several kinds of the ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction act simultaneously, the data obtained could be more complicated than those reported in this Section. However, such a situation is rather infrequent since usually the typical relaxation times of different interactions are separated by several orders of magnitude \cite{Ferrando,T-mode-2}, and it is possible to talk about a single effective interaction. \section{T-mode and multiple adsorbate hopping} \setcounter{equation}{0} Investigation of the adparticle diffusion on the basis of the Klein-Kramers equation \cite{PhysA195,SurScience311,Kramers} allows us to look at the problem of T-mode from another viewpoint, considering this one-particle excitation as a precursor of multiple or long jumps of the adsorbate. Such a jumping regime should not be confused with the situation, when at very low barriers the particle performs a quasi-continuous hopping at several sites \cite{PhysA195,SurScience311}, and a diffusive stage of evolution is not reached. One rather has to talk about the situation when the velocity of the particle, which has localized at a certain adsorption site $s$, is not thermalized yet, and the adsorbate jumps to the next nearest neighboring site $s'$ very soon. Thus, we will use the term ``multiple'' rather than ``long'' hopping of the adsorbate. In Ref.~\cite{SurScience311} two condi\-tions for the multiple jumps of the adsorbate at the thermal activated diffusion have been established, formulated as strong inequalities \bea\label{condC} \tau_{th}\ll\tau_v,\qquad\tau_{osc}\ll\tau_v \eea for three typical times of the system dynamics \bea\label{3timesC} \tau_{osc}=a\sqrt\frac{m}{U},\quad \tau_v\sim \frac{1}{\eta_c}, \quad \tau_{th}=a\sqrt{\frac{m}{k_B T}}, \eea where $\tau_{osc}$ means the period of oscillation of the adparticle with mass $m$ at the bottom of the potential well of the depth $U$; $\tau_v$ is a relaxation time of the velocity autocorrelation function, and $\tau_{th}$ denotes the time taken by the particle to cross over a lattice spacing $a$ with a mean thermal velocity $v_{th}$. It is seen from the presented above analysis that the T-mode is defined by the second inequality of (\ref{condC}). If the system parameters allow the typical times to obey the first inequality too, then the multiple jumps can be observed in the system. Let us suppose that conditions (\ref{condC}) are fulfilled. Then during both the jump to the nearest neighboring site (left inequality) and oscillation within a certain adsorption site (right inequality) the particle does not have enough time to be thermalized, and the multiple hopping scenario of the diffusion can be realized. In such a case, the Einstein-Smoluchowski equation is found to be insufficient \cite{PhysA195,SurScience311} for the description of the adparticle diffusion, and one has to use the Klein-Kramers equation for the distribution function, which depends both on the velocity and on the coordinate of the adsorbate. In the case of quantum diffusion the multiple hopping conditions (\ref{condC}) remain valid too, but the values $\tau_{osc}$ and $\tau_{th}$ from Eq.~(\ref{3timesC}) should be substituted by the typical times \bea\label{2timesQ} \tau_{osc}=\frac{2\pi}{\Omega},\qquad \tau_{tun}=\frac{2\pi\hbar}{t_{inter}},\qquad\eea where $\tau_{osc}$ denotes the inverse vibrational frequency, and $\tau_{tun}$ is a time taken by the particle to perform an underbarrier hopping to the nearest neighboring site. It should be pointed out that Refs.~\cite{PhysA195,SurScience311} were directed mainly to the investigation of inelastic peak of the dynamic structure factor (or, alternatively, the side peak of velocity autocorrelation function) at various coupling constants and barrier heights, and no study of the temperature dependence of the inelastic peak was performed to attribute it to the T-mode features. On the other hand, a generalization of the Klein-Kramers equation to description of the quantum diffusion (especially in the weak coupling limit, when there is the energy-diffusion-controlled regime from the viewpoint of transition state theory \cite{Kramers}) is an intricate problem, which, up to our knowledge, has not been solved yet. In Ref.~\cite{PRE2011} we followed an alternative way, having studied a behavior of the ``velocity--velocity'' time correlation functions, defined on the adjacent sites, with taking into account the memory effects. It has been shown that at given parameters of the model the multiple jumps are absent (the relation $\tau_{tun}\sim\tau_v$ was found to be valid), but they should appear when the tunnelling amplitude increases or the coupling strength decreases. The most interesting question -- about the influence of temperature on the multiple hopping of adsorbate -- can be answered only after an additional analysis of the T-mode behavior. \section{Concluding remarks} In this paper, we carry out numerical and analytical investigation of the temperature dependence of the T-mode of adsorbate which diffuses from one adsorption site to another by a tunnelling mechanism. The T-mode characteristics (its localization frequency and width) are known to depend on temperature \cite{T-mode-1,T-mode-2,PRE2011}. Having adopted a concept that the T-mode appearance is dealt with memory effects of the adsorbate motion, we propose an explanation of either ({\it red} or {\it blue}) temperature induced shifts of the above mentioned one-particle excitation on the basis of comparative analysis of two typical timescales: the correlation time $\tau_{cor}$ of the thermal bath random forces and the relaxation time $\tau_v$ of the velocity autocorrelation functions. We show that in the strong sub-Ohmic regime with $n\ll 1$ the relation $\tau_v\ll\tau_{cor}$ is valid, leading to a {\it blue}-shift of the T-mode with temperature, since the excess energy of the lattice is being delivered to the adparticle, thereby increasing its effective vibrational energy. On the contrary, in the strong super-Ohmic regime with $n\approx 2$ the inequality $\tau_v\gg\tau_{cor}$ becomes valid. At the timescales of about $\tau_{cor}$ the adparticle does not have enough time to be thermalized and starts to transfer its energy to the lattice, yielding the observed {\it red}-shift of the T-mode. We have also analyzed in detail the temperature behavior of the T-mode width, which changes from a strongly nonlinear function of $T$ (in the case of strong sub-Ohmic regime with $n\ll 1$) to the linear dependence in temperature (for Ohmic and super-Ohmic systems). The ohmicity type is closely related to the nature of the ``adsorbate--substrate'' interaction: the case with $n=0$ corresponds to the flicker noise, the Ohmic regime is being realized in the systems with ``electronic'' friction or at the coupling with nonlinear phonons, while the super-Ohmic case with $n=2$ corresponds to the linear Debye phonon coupling. Therefore, one can draw a conclusion about the interaction mechanism from analysis of the temperature induced shift of the T-mode. On the other hand, extrapolating the obtained data to the zero temperature limit, it is possible to evaluate the micro\-scopic parameters (vibrational frequency $\Omega$ and coupling strength $\eta_c$), which govern behavior of the ``adsorbate--substrate'' system. We consider a slow underbarrier site-to-site hopping of the adparticle to be a ``driving force'' of the surface motion of the adsorbate. Unlike the impulsive collision approximation \cite{T-mode-2}, a ``driving term'' (\ref{H_A}) of the Hamiltonian is treated on equal footing with other interaction mechanisms and defines a time evolution of the system. Since there is a lack of data about the T-mode beha\-vior for the case, when the diffusion is mediated by tunnelling, and the non-Markovian effects play an important role \cite{Zeno} (or, what is almost the same, when different regimes of the ohmicity manifest themselves), we believe that our investigations have a good perspective from a viewpoint of the study of transition regimes of the adsorbate. It has to be emphasized that a similar approach should be quite promising in the case of thermally activated diffusion as well. It was shown in Ref.~\cite{Pottier} that in non-Ohmic systems with $0<n<2$, $n\ne 1$, the thermal bath random forces were correlated as $\langle F_r(t) F_r(0)\rangle\sim\frac{\eta_c k_B T}{t^n}$, whereas the long time asymptotics of the velocity autocorrelation functions was scaled as $\langle v(t) v(0)\rangle\sim\frac{\eta_c k_B T}{m} \frac{1}{t^{2-n}}$. Thus, the relations $\tau_v\ll\tau_{cor}$ or $\tau_v\gg\tau_{cor}$ remain valid also at thermally activated diffusion, allowing one to perform a similar comparative analysis of the typi\-cal timescales and to study the temperature behavior of the T-mode. Finally, we relate the T-mode to the onset of the multihops of the adsorbate. If an eventual temperature induced shift of the T-mode toward lower frequencies and its broadening are not too large (quasi- and inelastic peaks of the dynamic structure factor are well resolved), one can state that there is a portion of multihops in the system. The computer simulations within the Monte Carlo wave function formalism \cite{36Ferrando} and direct evaluation of the ``flux--flux'' time correlation functions \cite{JJ-TCF,Japan} support this suggestion. Thus, investigation of the T-mode behavior along with a study of the ``velocity--velocity'' cross correlation functions can shed more light upon the nature of such an interesting phenomenon of the adsorbate motion as a diffusion by the multi-hopping scenario. \section*{Acknowledgement} This work was partially supported by the Project ``Models of the quantum-statistical description of cata\-ly\-tic processes at the metallic surfaces''(Lviv Polytechnic National University), No. 0110U001091.

You may already know that cleaning your carpet can help make it look and smell amazing, but did you know that having your carpet cleaned at least once a year can prolong the life of your flooring? Here are a few more reasons why you need to have your carpet cleaned by a professional. Carpet Cleaning Henderson Nv can help! Your carpet is prone to holding in moisture due to spills, tracked in dirt and mud, and other issues. If your carpet fibers do not have all the moisture removed from them, then it is very likely that you will end up with mold in your flooring. Mold can not only be hazardous to your health, but it can also cause an enormous amount of structural damage. And it can be difficult to get rid of once it appears. For best results, have your carpet cleaned by a professional immediately after your flooring has been exposed to excess water or moisture. Your carpet endures a lot of traffic over time, and that can cause the fibers to sink and not be as soft and fluffy as it originally was when your flooring was first installed. By having your carpet cleaned using a deep steam cleaner, you will be able to revive your old carpet flooring and make the fibers stand back up as they should, causing your carpet to appear fluffier and soft to the touch. If you suffer from seasonal allergies or are allergic to pet dander, then you will need to have your carpet cleaned on a regular basis. Your professional carpet cleaners can safely and efficiently remove harmful dust mites, dander, and other allergens from your carpet that your vacuum cleaner is simply unable to reach. Don't cover up that red wine or juice stain on your white carpet with a throw rug or piece of furniture. Instead, hire a professional carpet crew to take care of the stain for you. They can apply safe and effective carpet cleaning solutions that will eliminate the stain and have your carpet looking good as new in no time. Having a clean carpet that looks and smells nice will help to make your entire home feel cleaner. It can help to brighten up the interior of your home and remove harsh odors from the area so that you can breathe easier. If you are tired of the dirty and dingy condition of your carpet and are ready for an upgrade, then it is time to get in touch with a company that offers reliable Henderson Carpet Cleaning Services. These professionals can help to restore your carpet back to its natural beauty in no time. They will always leave your carpet in better shape than it was when they arrived and will advise you on what you can do to help keep your carpet looking its best all year long.

This is where you add information about the products that you want to sell. This step is very important as it helps a buyer make a purchasing decision depending on the information given by you. To know more about the listing please read Product Listing in Marketplaces. If you have trouble with this step, you can get in touch with us. We will help you with cataloging or take professional photographs of your products. Right pricing of your products is one of the most critical components while selling online profitably. You have to calculate the costs involved before pricing the products. Shipping Cost – It completely depends upon the size and weight of the product. It may vary between INR 60 to INR 300 for normal sized products. Marketplace Commission Cost – It again depends upon the category in which your products fall under. For low margin products like electronics items, it can vary between 4% to 10% whereas categories like apparels and clothing it can be as high as 25% – 30%. These commissions are not fixed and may change anytime by the marketplaces. On top of these charges, few of the marketplaces even charge a flat fee on every order. Marketing/Advertisement Cost –In few of the marketplaces, you can opt for internal advertisements which is a form of paid marketing. It can be CPC(Cost per Click) or impressions or banners and posters within the marketplace website. They are very similar to Google's AdWords and is based on keyword research and bidding. Extra Costs – You are penalized monetarily for non-fulfillment of orders on time or in case of stock outs of products after the order is placed by the customer. Photography Cost –Photography of your products is a mandatory activity for selling online and guidelines of the marketplaces have to be followed. For tabletop product photography the cost can vary between INR 80 to INR 150 and products with a model can vary between INR 250 to INR 800 depending upon the service providers. If you are a reseller of other manufacturers you can use images which are already available for reuse on the internet. Listing Cost– If you are using services of third-party vendors for listing, the costs can vary between INR 10 to INR 50 per product per marketplace. Packaging Cost –Depending on the type of product you are planning to sell, you will need to consider the packaging cost. Check the different packing material and calculate how much you will need for one product. Calculate the total cost per product accordingly. Normally it's between INR 10 to INR 45. Storage Cost –Depending on the product, you might need to rent a warehouse or some storage space for your products. Some online marketplaces like Amazon, Flipkart or Snapdeal let you use their warehouses at a small fee. Lost or Damaged products Cost – At times products are damaged or lost in transit. A dispute has to be raised during such instances but there is a 50 % chance that you will have to incur this additional costs. Reverse Logistics Cost – The cost for returns have to be borne by you in most of the cases. It will be between INR 60 to INR 300 normally for each product return. Roughly 20% of the products are returned due to various reasons. Managing of inventory across marketplaces is one of the most crucial activities for selling online which has to be in sync with the physical availability of the inventory in hand. You have to keep track of the inward and outward movement of your inventory. Most of the marketplaces will penalize you for non-fulfillment of orders due to stock out. It impacts the seller rating as well which can impact selling online profitably drastically. Receiving new orders from buyers and confirming the order. Packing that order– adding invoice and shipment label and keeping it ready for dispatch. Dispatching the order by using logistics partners of the marketplaces or self-shipping by using third-party logistics vendors. Downloading/Uploading the manifest to ensure pick up of the right product. Tracking orders until they are delivered to the buyers. Buyer is unavailable during delivery. In case of COD, the buyer might not have cash available with him or her. Buyer has changed his mind and it can be for any reason. Buyer places multiple orders from various marketplaces and only accepts the order which is first delivered to him or her and returns the rest of the products. In case of genuine returns, it may involve refund, exchange or replacement. Returns lead to buyer satisfaction making you a preferred seller but the extra cost incurred for reverse logistics has to be borne by you. Payment cycles vary across all the marketplaces. Very few marketplaces release payment weekly, most of them release payment twice a month. Payments are released after deducting the commission or cancellation fees. Most of the marketplaces have a Seller Protection Program which exists to take care of damages when you are not at fault. Your grievances will be taken into consideration and resolved most of the times but usually, the benefit of the doubt is given to the buyers. You have to track your performance very closely for selling online such as your sales, quality of service and other factors. These help you to become a preferred seller on the marketplaces. Most of the marketplaces provide dashboards to highlight necessary information to check your key performance metrics. You have to constantly strive to maintain good ratings and getting good feedback from buyers for selling online profitably and in a sustainable way. You have to constantly work towards introducing new products to sell online. You can check the various marketplaces which have very good search engine and try to identify gaps where you can introduce these new products. The product gaps need not be only unavailability of a certain category of products, it can be even existing products but at a new price range. An experience with google adwords can really help to manage these promotions. In case you are not comfortable with selling online and promotion of your products in this new channel please get in touch with us. We provide end to end solutions for new and existing sellers like you. Next Next post: 7 Things to consider for product listing in Amazon, Flipkart etc.

'US has decided India is a strategic partner that's why Pak treated differently' - Indica news 'US has decided India is a strategic partner that's why Pak treated differently' IANS- Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan said that the US has decided that India is a strategic partner and that is why Islamabad was being treated differently. "I think that the Americans have decided that India is their strategic partner now, and I think that's why there's a different way of treating Pakistan now," Khan told foreign journalists at his home in Islamabad, a global news wire reported. A political settlement in Afghanistan was looking difficult under current conditions, he added. The Prime minister said he tried to persuade the Taliban leaders when they were visiting Pakistan to reach a settlement. "The condition is that as long as (Afghan President) Ashraf Ghani is there, we (Taliban) are not going to talk to the Afghan government," Khan said quoting the Taliban leaders as telling him. Khan accused the US of seeing Pakistan as useful only in the context of the "mess" it is leaving behind in Afghanistan after 20 years of fighting, the report said Washington has been pressing Islamabad to use its influence over the Taliban to broker an elusive peace deal as negotiations between the insurgents and Afghan government have stalled, and violence in Afghanistan has escalated sharply. "Pakistan is just considered only to be useful in the context of somehow settling this mess which has been left behind after 20 years of trying to find a military solution when there was not one," Khan added. The US will pull out its military by August 31, 20 years after toppling the Taliban government in 2001. But, as the US leaves, the Taliban today control more territory than at any point since then. Khan said Pakistan had "made it very clear" that it does not want any American military bases in Pakistan after US forces exit Afghanistan, the report added.

What do we even mean when we say we want to see the 'real' China? Or the 'real' Scotland? What you are seeing right now, in this moment, is the real China, or the real wherever you are. I often hear people complain about how westernised China is these days (I am also guilty of this on occasion) and how it's just not what they expected it to be. Well, sorry to break it to you but why would it be any other way? The whole world is developing at an absolutely crazy rate, so why should China or Thailand or India be any different? I too, would love it if everyone in China did Kung Fu and wore qi paos (traditional Chinese dresses) and only rode bicycles. But sadly, life goes on. Cultures develop and adapt and borrow from other cultures. People still practice tai chi here, but it's usually outside Walmart, which is nestled between a Starbucks, a KFC and a McDonald's. There is the odd bicycle or two sprinkled amongst the rush hour traffic, and occasionally you might be lucky to see someone adorning the classic qi pao dress. Of course there are places in China where you can go to still catch a glimpse of Chinese life as it always was, but those days are fleeting. Trends catch on. Everyone wants a car and to try a hamburger. Personally I just want a bicycle and a bowl of brown rice, but that's because I grew up with cars and hamburgers. We always want what we don't have, don't we? I want to cycle along a river filled with bamboo rafts and stop at a pagoda for a cup of green tea, then continue on my way to the bottom of the mountain to dabble in a spot of Kung Fu. Meanwhile, my friend Lily from China wants to go to Starbucks and drink coffee, then head to the mall and buy the latest iPhone. Then she might get her hair dyed light brown and consider whether she wants pizza or a steak for dinner. And on it goes. Everyone, the world over, is totally free to decide which cultures they want to flirt with, which languages they wish to learn and which countries they want to travel to next. But we must just keep in mind that they might not be exactly what we had anticipated. More often than not, there will be a McDonald's standing high and mighty at the end of the street, but there will also be a friendly little local restaurant tucked just down that alleyway. Go there! You might be lucky enough to meet some lovely people who can restore your faith in the fact that there are still some people who care enough about preserving their unique culture and sharing it with any curious visitors to the area. So, when you arrive in Shenzhen or Tokyo or Edinburgh or Cape Town and things aren't quite what you expected, don't panic! Rest assured there will be some hidden gems that will be positively oozing 'China' or 'Japan' or 'Scotland' or 'South Africa'. But also, keep an open mind. Don't expect everyone in Scotland to be wearing a kilt and talking with an accent so strong you can't even make out one word. You will come across it, but not around every corner, and that's what makes a place so interesting. You come in with a narrow view of what a place will be like, filled with kilt-wearing, haggis-eating redheads and you should be pleasantly surprised to see that there is more to Scotland than meets the stereotypical eye. We all embrace modernity and development, even if we pretend that we don't. We want to sit cross-legged with the monks at the temple, then run back to our air-con'd rooms and check Facebook. We want to eat with chopsticks to prove that we can, but we also want to eat pasta sometimes too. We want it all. And that's OK. In fact, that's the key, embracing all aspects of a culture, both old and new, and enjoying everything that a country has to offer. Don't blame China or wherever you are for trying to keep up with the rest of the world. It would be nice to be able to live in a small, traditional Chinese temple house, but the reality is: that just doesn't work in the big, bustling cities. And thus it is, we live in skyscraper apartment buildings and commute by bus instead of horse and cart. So, the next time you travel somewhere remote and get upset when you see that giant yellow 'M' or people wearing jeans instead of robes, just remember: we are all moving forward together, and only we can be responsible for preserving and maintaining our unique cultures and languages so that they don't disappear off the edge of our beautiful earth, never to be seen again. On that note, I am a proudly Scottish girl who absolutely loves the country I was brought up in and even though my accent is 'messed-up' (as people like to remind me on a daily basis) and I have lived abroad for almost a decade, I am still Scottish and always will be. However, I also speak Chinese and I need to drink a bowl of Japanese Matcha tea every morning, and I left a chunk of my heart in South Africa and sometimes I think I might actually be Taiwanese I love it that much, and soon I am going to travel to Myanmar and I know there will probably be a Starbucks in every city, but that's totally OK. Because I respect that if I want to embrace a whole assortment of cultures, then so too, does Myanmar, and that includes coffee culture. Plus, just because it's there, doesn't mean I have to give it the time of day. I will happily cycle on and hopefully get lost on some magical road from days gone by. Hypocritical? No. Like I said before- keep an open mind. Don't compare the place you're visiting to history books and travel stories from centuries ago, but when you do have a close encounter with a part of the culture that you hadn't imagined still existed, remember to enjoy it and be respectful of that special moment, because they are rare. p.s. Have you ever travelled somewhere and felt disappointed because it wasn't what you expected? Ah, but that is life. Just try to find the positivity and enjoy whatever experience you are having, because really, you are lucky to just be experiencing it in the first place.

Summer construction start for Durham garden village Infrastructure works linking the development to the nearby A182 can now begin with the first phases of housing commencing early in 2023. The development will bring 1,500 new homes to the area with 750 homes developed for private sale by Miller Homes and Taylor Wimpey and the remaining 750 homes to be of mixed tenure including rent to buy, shared ownership and affordable rent options. Tolent will remain engaged in the project following the sale of the land and has entered into a construction partnership with Karbon Homes to deliver its share of the properties. Paul Webster, CEO at Tolent said: "South Seaham Garden Village will provide a diverse mix of homes providing a vibrant community on the outskirts of Seaham. "The site has been owned by Tolent for a number of years and we have been working in partnership with Durham County Council to create an ambitious garden village that will provide innovation in the local housing market. "Approximately half of the development will be managed green space including play areas and a grassed playing pitch lined by a network of over three miles of landscaped paths and cycleways which coupled with its coastal setting make it an idyllic location." Sarah Robson, Director of Development and Regeneration at Karbon Homes, said: "We're delighted to have bought our share of the land at South Seaham Garden Village and are looking forward to bringing 750 much-needed, affordable homes to the area. "This is the largest development we have embarked on to date and we're excited to be playing a part in bringing this vibrant new community to County Durham." In addition to the planned housing, the project includes a new village centre, which will include the delivery of a two-form entry primary school and a range of community facilities. Russ Hall, Managing Director of Taylor Wimpey North East, said "We are pleased to continue our investment in the North East and the South Seaham Garden Village project is a result of considerable hard work to date that will be evident on the ground soon. "We are excited to be part of the delivery of another major development in the North East and the delivery of a new garden village community." Patrick Arkle, Managing Director, North East at Miller Homes added: "This is a key location for us in the region, Seaham has transformed over the years into a popular beachfront destination and an up-and-coming place to live. "As a team we're excited about South Seaham Garden Village, the scale of the site presents lots of opportunities and we believe it will become a flagship development offering an excellent range of much-needed three, four and five-bed homes." The site is set to be a testbed for future technologies with a range of modern methods of construction planned for use with the potential for off-site panellised solutions and a range of alternative building methodologies currently being considered.

Have you accidently lost your house key or forgotten the combination to your office safe? If so, a good locksmith can help. It is easy to search for the best locksmith Aston offers by simply going online and doing a search. You should come up with several locksmiths near the Aston area. Locksmiths have been around for a long time and most countries require a professional locksmith to complete an apprenticeship. They may also need a certification of training or some other proof of competence and skill. Depending upon the type of lock you have, you may require the skills of a particular type of locksmith. If you have lost the keys to your car, you should call an automotive locksmith. These specialists will travel to your location and help you get back into your vehicle. If your car is a newer model, it probably has a keyless entry or automatic locks. The locksmith will either reconfigure the system or repair the lock so that you can get into your car. Most automotive locksmiths are available 24 hours a day, even on the weekends or holidays. If your trouble is with your home lock, then that may require a different type of locksmith. When you lose the keys to your house or if you suspect someone else has a key and you do not want them entering your home, you can call a residential locksmith to change the locks or just get your door open and create another set of keys. These locksmiths are also versed in home security systems and can also install locks on your windows or other points of access. Depending upon your security needs, a residential locksmith can install a variety of different locks. You may live in a quiet neighborhood and not have many security concerns or you may live in the middle of a high-crime area in the city. Either way, a residential locksmith can install the best type of locks on your home to ensure you and your family are safe. Even if you are locked out of your home at night, a residential locksmith will usually provide around-the-clock service so you can get back into your home. Locksmiths can also help if you have a problem at your office or place of business. A commercial locksmith will generally specialize in these types of locks. Locks on commercial buildings and facilities are not like residential locks, so it takes specialized skill to work on a commercial lock. These locks include not only doors but also locks on safes and to secured areas. Some commercial locksmiths will also install vaults and safes, as well as rekey or repair existing locks. When you need the locksmith Aston residents are using, check the local search listings. The type of lock you have – vehicle, residential or commercial – will determine the type of locksmith you should call. Most locksmiths are available 24 hours a day and can come to your location to make repairs, install new locks, or open a lock. Now that you know the differences between the types of locksmiths, you will know who to call when you are locked out.

As owners, we may not want to admit it, but many of our pets our overweight. Obesity has become a very common health problem among our cats and dogs. 40% of dogs in the United States are considered to be overweight or obese and about 30 % of cats are overweight or obese. Rates increase to 50% obesity in cats once they are over the age of 5. Many breeds of dogs are genetically predisposed to obesity including retrievers, dachshunds, basset hounds, boxers, terriers and spaniels. Many owners feel that feeding treats or giving extra at mealtimes, gives the pet happiness and a better quality of life. In fact, it can decrease the cat or dog's life expectancy and in return, the obesity can be a cause, or a symptom of many serious health conditions. Things obesity can cause or escalate are, arthritis, breathing problems, Diabetes Mellitus, cancers, fatty liver disease in cats, increased surgical and anesthetic risk, Cushing's disease, and Hypothyroidism. An overweight or obese pet has unnecessary stress on their joints. Weight loss can often provide an abundance of relief for pets that are experiencing arthritis issues when they have extra weight on their frame. The extra weight also puts unwanted stress on the lungs due to the extra layer of fat that is compressing the rib cage, therefore not allowing the lungs to fully inflate. Extra fat has also been shown to lead to insulin resistance in cats and dogs, which in cats can lead to Diabetes Mellitus. If your dog or cat is overweight or obese, Dr. Melanie Wood and her staff at Main Street Animal Hospital can help you. We have a body condition score chart that we can show you to help determine if your pet is overweight. You should be able to feel the ribs of your dog or cat without being able to see them. When viewing your pet from the side, there should be a slight tuck upwards of their belly. When viewing your pet from above they should have a slight hourglass shape, some vets refer to this as a "coke bottle" appearance. There are several ways to help your pet maintain a healthy weight. An appropriate amount of food for your pet can be determined by Dr. Melanie Wood based on their current weight, age, and amount of exercise they get. It is important to make sure that food is being properly measured in a cup that is measured in ounces so that the amount of food being fed can be accurately kept track of. At Main Street Animal Hospital, we can provide you with a measuring cup. On average, a normal healthy 60 pound dog should be fed about 1 cup twice a day. If determined necessary by Dr. Melanie Wood, there are prescription diets that can be fed to your pet in order to help them lose weight. These foods often have a high fiber content to help the animal feel more satisfied even though they are taking in fewer calories. Regular weight checks are a good idea as well to gauge how well the efforts to lose weight are working. If weight loss is not happening as expected, more adjustments may be needed. If you are concerned at all about the weight or health of your pet please contact us at Main Street Animal Hospital. Dr. Melanie Wood and the staff would be happy to help you with any questions that you may have.

Q: Get a pointer to BSTR from a vector I want to call a COM method which expects a BSTR array and separate parameter specifying the size of the array, it then populates the array. Will the following work properly - it compiles but I want to be sure about the &* since I know sys-strings are generally waiting to trip me up at every opportunity! vector<BSTR> strings(5); BSTR *pStrings = &*strings.begin(); pComInterface->method(strings.size(),pStrings); A: Assuming the COM interface method receives a std::size_t (or equivalent) and a BSTR*, you probably should use std::vector::data() instead of dereferencing an iterator: pComInterface->method(strings.size(), strings.data());

John Aubrey (12 de marzo de 1626 – 7 de junio de 1697) fue un anticuario y escritor inglés, más conocido por ser autor de breves piezas biográficas, usualmente conocidas como Vidas breves. Nació en Easton Piers o Percy, próximo a Malmesbury (Wiltshire), miembro de una familia acaudalada y famosa de la zona. Se educó en la escuela gramática de Malmesbury, bajo la tutela de Robert Latimer, que había tenido a Thomas Hobbes entre sus primeros alumnos. En casa de su profesor, Aubrey se encontró por primera vez con el filósofo cuya biografía redactaría más adelante. Ingresó a la Universidad de Trinity en Oxford, en 1642, pero sus estudios se vieron interrumpidos con el advenimiento de la Guerra Civil británica. Hacia 1646, se convirtió en un estudiante del Middle Temple, aunque nunca fue convocado a su tribunal. Permaneció la mayor parte de su vida entre los confines de su país, y en 1649 prestó atención a los restos megalíticos encontrados en Avebury. Su padre falleció en 1652, dejándole un considerable patrimonio, y con él, algunas complicadas deudas. Aubrey nunca quiso verse involucrado entre la mayoría de los más renombrados escritores, científicos, políticos y aristócratas de su tiempo; y poseía un ojo para el detalle. Si bien su memoria "no era tenaz", mantuvo (desordenadas) notas sobre la apariencia de sus amigos, sus debilidades y, lo más importante, los chismes que les involucraban. De hecho, un amigo y colega suyo, Anthony Wood, predijo que algún día se rompería el cuello corriendo por las escaleras en busca de alguna novedad para su portada. John Aubrey no formó parte de la política, pero de su descripción del encuentro de un club rotativo, fundado por James Harrington (el autor de Oceana), parecía tener connotaciones claramente republicanas. Sus reminiscencias en esta materia datan de la Restauración, y se han ajustado a la perfección. En 1663 se hizo miembro de la Sociedad Real, y al año siguiente conoció a William Somner, "en un mal momento," confiesa. Fue perdiendo su fortuna a causa de reiterados juicios hacia su persona, hasta que en 1670 se separó de su último trozo de propiedad y hogar ancestral, Easton Piers. Desde ese entonces, dependió de la hospitalidad de numerosos amigos. Por 1667 disfrutaría de la compañía de Anthony Wood en Oxford, y cuando este comenzó a juntar materiales para sus Athenae Oxonienses, Aubrey se ofreció para recolectarle información. De vez en cuando componía un memorándum en un estilo desparejo, informal y epistolar, y en 1680 se comprometió a trabajar en "Minutos por Vidas", que emplearía Wood a su discreción.

American Airlines CEO Doug Parker to retire, after 20 years at helm Parker is the longest-serving chief executive of a major U.S. airline. American Airlines CEO Doug Parker during the opening of five new gates at O'Hare International Airport on May 11, 2018 in Chicago.Scott Olson / Getty Images file Dec. 7, 2021, 12:10 PM UTC / Updated Dec. 7, 2021, 1:42 PM UTC By Leslie Josephs, CNBC American Airlines CEO Doug Parker is stepping down next year after two decades running airlines and will be replaced by the carrier's president, Robert Isom, on March 31, the company announced Tuesday. It's the second leadership change for a major airline set for next year. The new CEOs will be tasked with driving airlines' recovery from the Covid pandemic's toll. Southwest Airlines CEO Gary Kelly will step down in February, handing the reins to another long-time executive, Bob Jordan, in February. Parker will continue as chairman of American's board. "It likely would have happened sooner, but the global pandemic — and the devastating impact it had on our industry — delayed those plans," Doug Parker said in a note to staff on Tuesday. American's shares were up more than 3 percent in premarket trading, along with other airlines. Parker's career as an airline CEO spans 20 years, bookended by two crises: 9/11 and the Covid pandemic. In the latter, Parker helped win $54 billion in federal aid to cover payroll expenses. "No other CEO worked as hard, spent as much time with Congress or the administration, or felt the urgency of keeping people connected to our jobs — not once, but three times," wrote Sara Nelson, president of the Association of Flight Attendants, the largest union of cabin crew members, who pushed for the aid package. "The industry is standing today and able to lift us out of the biggest crisis in aviation history." Parker first became CEO of America West less than two weeks before the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks and later oversaw two mergers — with US Airways and American Airlines, the tail-end of a wave of consolidation among U.S. carriers that propelled American to become the largest U.S. carrier. Parker first became CEO of America West less than two weeks before the Sept. 11 attacks. Isom, who has a three-decade career in aviation, will become CEO of an airline that is still losing money as it tries to rebuild a business that collapsed during the pandemic. In the first three quarters of 2021, American has lost almost $4.8 billion after losing $9.5 billion last year when Covid forced countries around the world to ban flights and millions of would be travelers avoided taking flights. "Over the last several years, our airline and our industry have gone through a period of transformative change. And with change comes opportunity," Isom said in a news release announcing the leadership change. For Parker and Isom, the transition is the latest move in two careers that have been connected for more than 20 years, stretching back to their days at America West in the mid 1990s. After the Sept. 11 attacks, while many carriers struggled to rebound, Parker saw the challenging environment as the right opportunity for consolidation. In 2005, Parker oversaw the merger of America West with a bankrupt U.S. Airways, creating the fifth-largest carrier in the country. Parker ran the new U.S. Airways as CEO. Following the Great Recession that ended in 2009, airlines that were saddled with massive debts and high legacy costs spurred a series of bankruptcies and another round of mergers. Once again, Parker saw a rare opportunity to create a larger airline with the size and scale he could never achieve at US Airways. This time, the target was American, which had tumbled into bankruptcy in 2011. Parker engineered a merger between U.S. Airways and a bankrupt American, creating the largest airline in the world when American emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2013. Once again Parker was CEO, while Isom oversaw the integration of the two carriers as chief operating officer.

The stock price index is likely to fall further. However, closed all of the stock index positions. This is because the stock market seems to be getting a lot louder. Only profits here and nothing else. The market is disorderly. The market does not know where to go. Gold: As expected, gold prices have fallen. XAUUSD is likely to drop a little more. They will drop to $ 1269.5 or $ 1250. The gold prices hit the support line of $ 1270. Perhaps, the support line will not be strong. The resistance line dropped to 1290.65. Silver is relatively stronger than gold. XAGUSD stopped dropping on the support line of 14.95. I do not think that support is strong. The silver price will drop a little more. They will fall to at least 14.68. I will hold the sell-position. WTI: The oil market is hot. As expected, the situation in the crude oil market is getting worse. In the near future, the oil market will be in turmoil. So-called they have set fire to the Middle East. Brent oil is likely to go up to $ 79.1 and WTI to $ 71. We need to be interested in Swedish krona. The value of the Krona will continue to decline. Last November, I said that USDSEK started to rise. My prediction was not wrong. If USDSEK falls, it will be a very good buying opportunity. The meaningful line is 9.093. The target price is 10.77. USDSEK is likely to take 1-2 years to reach 10.77. Sweden is rushing towards Cashless (cash ban). I do not know whether such a policy is good or bad for the Swedish public. The Krona exchange rate will be related to such policy. Please read the linked news. Russian rubles are very stable and strong. In the medium term, USDRUB is likely to decline. The resistance line is 67.14. They may not rise over 67.14. The support line is 59.45. If they go up, it would be better to find opportunities to sell. It would be better to do sell-trading. As everyone knows, Russia has sold off most of its dollar assets. Instead, they are buying gold. They have created their own financial system which does not depend on Western financial systems. Of course, Russia also has strong military power. Putin cherishes Russia's sovereignty, and the Russians support Putin and his policies. In short, Russia is independent and strong. The rubles will be stronger in the future.

Swing Trading : a short-term(days to a couple of weeks) trading method and focuses on taking smaller gains. Day Trading : Day trading could make it possible for trader to get some good profits fast. However, it can be very risky. It is very difficult to do and demands a high level of concentration. Trader has to sit in front of computer screens and practically glue their eyes to the price action. Day trader should use a risk-management method keeping capital losses to a minimum. Again, day trading could be Very Risky.

Skywriters wrote 'America is great! Trump is disgusting' over the Rose Parade on Friday, Jan. 1, 2016. PASADENA, CA -- Skywriters had a very distinct message for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump at the 127th Rose Parade on New Year's Day. "America is great! Trump is disgusting," was the message sprawled across the sky in Pasadena as floats paraded in front of cheering fans. Skywriters later wrote "Anybody but Trump." The political message was written before Iowa and Stanford faced off in the 102nd Rose Bowl. Iowa is the first caucus state which will vote on Feb. 1. A company by the name AirSign appears to be behind the writing of the anti-Trump messages on Friday. In a tweet, the aerial ad agency said it was paid for by AnybodyButTrump.com, though it appears the actual web address is AnybodyButTrump.us. AnybodyButTrump.us appears to be funded by the We The People Foundation, according to its website.

Tokyo, Thursday, 06 September, 2012 - Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) will present the global debut of the new Outlander PHEV at the 2012 Paris Motor Show (or "Mondial de L' Automobile 2012") held from Thursday, 27th September, through Sunday, 14th October. The Outlander PHEV uses the Plug-in Hybrid EV System powertrain developed by MMC and derived from its lineup of all-electric models. Outlander PHEV is the world's first plug-in hybrid SUV and offers the best of three worlds: the environmental performance of an electric vehicle (EV), the cruising range of a conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle, and the on- and off-road performance of an SUV. MMC is due to bring Outlander PHEV to market first in Japan early in 2013. Alongside the Outlander PHEV, MMC will be displaying a total of 11 vehicles (seven on press days) on its stand at the Paris Motor Show, including: the new European version of MMC's global compact car (called Mirage in other countries) which makes its debut; the ASX compact crossover which has been refreshed for the 2013 model year; and a display model of the i-MiEV Evolution 100% electric race-car which took part in the 2012 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb held in the United States in August. New Outlander PHEV 2 2 Global premiere. European version of new global compact car 1 2 European premiere. ASX (European version) 1 2 Premiere of refreshed 2013 model. i-MiEV Evolution 1 1 Model of vehicle entered in 2012 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. Pajero - 1 30th anniversary specification model (for France). Montero in Spanish speaking countries. Shogun in the UK. L200 - 1 Triton in some markets. An official method of measuring vehicle fuel consumption introduced by the Japanese government. Most everyday situations" is based on a JCAP (Japan Clean Air Program) study conducted in Japan which showed that on average, 85% of Japanese drivers drove less than 55km per day. The first generation Pajero was launched in Japan in May, 1982 as a 4WD vehicle with the looks and driving qualities of a passenger car. Since its introduction the series has continuously evolved as successive versions have been fitted with cutting-edge functions and equipment, the 4WD system included, allowing it to maintain its position as leader of its class. 2012 marks the 30th anniversary of its debut with some 2.9 million units having been produced. Pajero today continues to enjoy high acclaim from customers in over 170 countries and regions across the world as an all-round SUV which delivers outstanding off-road performance together with levels of high-speed motoring performance and comfort that are on a par with a passenger car.

At Fresno State's annual Constitution Day held at the Satellite Student Union Friday, a panel of professors held competing positions on the constitutionality of the universal health care legislation passed back in March. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) will expand eligibility for Medicaid—government-subsidized health insurance for low income individuals and families—up to 133 percent of the federal poverty line starting in 2014 to help cover the 50 million American adults currently without health insurance. It will also set up state-based exchanges where qualified buyers can purchase private insurance with government subsidies. The most controversial provision in the bill is the mandate requiring individuals, including students not covered by their employer or family's plan, to purchase health insurance, which also goes into effect in 2014. Individuals must provide the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) proof of health insurance when filing their income tax, or be penalized up to $2,000 for a family of four, or 2.5 percent of your income. Twenty-one states have already taken action against the landmark legislation, filing lawsuits on grounds that it exceeds the commerce powers of congress and betrays state sovereignty as articulated in the 10th Amendment of the Bill of Rights. Moderator and Fresno State political science professor Jeffrey Cummins said that as a result of the 1986 legislation which required emergency rooms to accept all comers, the individual mandate is essential. Cummins said there are two ways to provide universal health care: Either apply the individual mandate or a government-based, single-payer system as seen in many western European countries. Political science professor Yishaiya Abosch, who teaches constitutional law at Fresno State, opposes the bill's justification for the individual mandate as a means of regulating commerce. He cited recent supreme-court cases—U.S. v Lopez (1995) and U.S. v Morrison (2000)—which struck down federal provisions that violated the commerce clause stated in Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution. San Joaquin College of Law Professor Jeffrey Purvis defended the constitutionality of the provision, saying that the subject of regulation in the bill is the purchase and sale of health insurance, which is a commercial transaction, and therefore within the confines of the commerce clause. Purvis views some general objections to the individual mandate—that government cannot make you purchase something you do not want, or that one must be engaged in activity in order to be regulated—as not being principles of constitutional law. Purvis cited aspects of the Bush administration's Patriot Act, which received bipartisan support, as an infringement on civil liberties by the federal government that fled the constraints of the constitution. After the event, Abosch told The Collegian that Bush's policies reflected an overarching interest of national defense that should not be equated with health care, and some of these policies were struck down by the courts. He cited Obama's continuation of many of Bush's policies—rendition, not closing Guantanamo Bay prison, intercepting private telecommunications without warrants—being beyond reproach as examples of inconsistent, partisan views of constitutional law. Partisan discourse on previous constitutional abuses has lent itself to obscuring and excusing further abuses from rigorous constitutional analysis. "No matter how necessary or effective [a] law might be, or no matter how much time or political capital was spent in passing it, if the law is outside the scope of power the U.S. constitution assigns national government, it must be declared unconstitutional and void," Abosch said. Purvis told The Collegian he is aware that many constitutional scholars share Abosch's view that this is not a correct ordering of these values, but that such a hierarchy has been well established by the courts. Abosch reiterated that states have powers that the federal government does not. California can mandate drivers to purchase auto insurance, just as Massachusetts can implement a universal health care plan and mandate their residents to purchase a qualifying health plan. This state sovereignty was well intentioned by the framers, said Abosch, because it provides diversity among states in the union; creates better policies since states are more intimately involved and accountable to their constituents; and allows failed experiments to be learned from by other states. Last week Florida Federal Judge Roger Vinson indicated that he would deny the federal government's request to dismiss state lawsuits against the bill, as reported by the New York Times, increasing the likelihood of it eventually being brought before the Supreme Court. Typically in Supreme Court cases, Purvis said, a constitutional challenge would only kill the provisions being challenged, leaving the bill intact. But the impact of losing the individual mandate may leave the program, in effect, inoperative. It would create a major funding hole, and it is unclear as to how Democrats may seek to reconcile losing the individual mandate when implementing PPACA over the next four years.

Q: Mathematica ruins domain after explicit summation? I'm working with this function aExpl[G_,T_] := -2^(G - 2 T) Sum[(-1)^r (2 r - 1) Binomial[G,2 r] Sum[(-1/2)^j Binomial[r, G - T - j] Binomial[G - T - j,T], {j, G - T - r, G - 2 T}], {r, T, G/2}] and I have no problems with it when written like this. Specifically, I get aExpl[0,0] = 1 aExpl[1,0] = -1 aExpl[2,1] = 1 as you can check for yourself. I would like to have my sums evaluated and I tried to do that with and without specifying my conditions in more than one way. But whatever I do, the answer comes out as ((-1)^(1 + G - T) 2^(-1 + G) ((-1 + G - T) (-1 + 2 T) Binomial[G, 2 T] + (1 + T) (1 + 2 T) Binomial[G, 2 (1 + T)]) Gamma[-1 + G - T] Gamma[1/2 + T])/(Sqrt[\[Pi]] Gamma[G]) which obviously doesn't work for those three specific values. I tried redefining the function in parts, so that the above result holds for values that interest me and are defined (G>=2T && G>=3), along with setting problematic values explicitly. aExpl[0,0]:=1 aExpl[1,0]:=-1 aExpl[2,1]:=1 This gives the correct result for all values, but the main reason why I have the function aExpl[G,T] in the first place is to sum it over Gs and Ts. But I can't do that, because Mathematica messes something up again. For Example aExpl[0,T] gives 0, which obviously isn't the case. What in the world is going on here? :O A: alYour result is actually a rather pathological function. The problematic term is the ratio of Gamma[G - T - 1]/Gamma[G] for integer arguments, which gives indeterminate (infinity/infinity) whenever (G == 0 && T [Element] Integer) and infinity (sometimes multiplied by zero from the rest of the result function) whenever (G, T [Element] Integer) && (G <= T + 1). You would have to set explicit values for all cases with G = 0 and all cases with (G, T [Element] Integer) && (G <= T + 1) that 'interest' you. Edit: Now I think there is no real problem here. For all cases (apart from the three you quoted) the result is correct: N[MatrixForm[ Table[{{G, T}, aExpl[G,T], (1/(Sqrt[Pi]*Gamma[G]))*(-1)^(1 + G - T)* 2^(-1 + G)*((-1 + G - T)*(-1 + 2*T)*Binomial[G, 2*T] + (1 + T)*(1 + 2*T)* Binomial[G, 2*(1 + T)])*Gamma[-1 + G - T]*Gamma[1/2 + T]}, {G, 0, 7, 1}, {T, 0, G/2, 1}]]] The three cases have the problem with the Gamma function I described above. And the case (G=0,T) is not covered by your condition (G>=2T && G>=3) and restricts the summation to zero. A: Your summation function has certain peculiar behavior which needs to have special cases beyond the general cases. Your original function (with tweaks): aExp1[G_Integer, T_Integer] := -2^(G - 2 T) Sum[(-1)^r (2 r - 1) Binomial[G, 2 r] Sum[(-1/2)^j Binomial[r, G - T - j] Binomial[G - T - j, T], {j, G - T - r, G - 2 T}], {r, T, G/2}]; My version without explicit summation is the following: aexp1[G_Integer, T_Integer] := If[T<0 || G<2 T, 0, -(-1)^(G+T) 2^(G-2 T-2) If[G<=2, 2, If[T==3, 1/2, 1]] Which[T==0, G-2, T==1, G (G-1), True, G (G-1) (G-2) Product[ G-T-i, {i, 2, T-1}] / If[T<4, Max[1, T], T!]]]; My version returns 0 if T<0 or G<2*T while your version returns non zero results for those cases.

Trump Lights Up Obama Policies In Front Of First Responders NICHOLAS KAMM/AFP/Getty Images Benny Johnson Columnist, Viral Politics December 27, 2017 8:33 PM ET Donald Trump had no scheduled events on Wednesday, but that did not stop the president from swinging into the local fire department in Palm Beach, Florida. Trump addressed the assembled EMTs and firefighters with a message of encouragement, telling them multiple times that they are doing a "fantastic job." After the pleasantries, Trump opened up the floor for questions. In the course of the Q & A, the president was asked a peppering of questions over how his administration was going. At these questions, Trump took a blowtorch to Obama-era policies and regulations that his administration has repealed. According to the official transcript: Trump on police purchasing military equipment: So the country is really — you have a big, big beautiful ship that we're turning around. And a lot of good things are happening. You know with the military, we're rebuilding our military. It was depleted. You guys were a little bit depleted too. We're giving you — and particularly the police, we're giving them military equipment, which was taken away by the previous administration. You know all about that. And now you're getting the military equipment. They didn't want them to use the military equipment. Somebody will explain why. But now you have the best military equipment, and you're able to use it for the police force. Trump on repealing the Obamacare individual mandate: The repeal of the individual mandate, which is a disaster. That's where you have the privilege of paying a lot of money so that you don't have to buy health insurance. All right? The most unpopular thing, which most people thought should have been unconstitutional. But we repealed it. Trump on drilling in the arctic refuge ANWR: And we got ANWR, which is going to be one of the great drilling sites of the world — great oil reserves. Trump on Obama regulations: In addition, we have a lot of executive orders. We've gotten a lot of the rules and regulations. You people suffered from that to a certain extent, too, in all fairness. But a lot of the regulations were voided. And now you can go back to work and do your jobs. In the case of builders, in the case of farmers, and so many others, they can now go back and do their jobs. So we have the all-time record for stopping ridiculous regulations, and we're very proud of that record. Trump on the stock market: It's doing well, right? They're all doing well. The 401(k)s doing well, the stocks are doing well, a lot of companies coming back into this country. And they're coming back into the country that we love, which is what we care about, and then even before the tax cut. That's one of the reasons the stock market has done, you know, at a record level. It's a record level. We broke it 84 times this year. The stock market hit a new high 84 times since we won the election on November 8th of last year. On tax cuts and corporate taxes: And I tell you, that tax cut bill is something with what's it's kicking in. Literally we know when the big companies — AT&T, Comcast, so many others, Wells Fargo — they're giving thousands of dollars to their employees. And nobody saw that happening right away, but that happened early. And now what's happening is many other companies are following suit. Trump finished his remarks with another compliment to the first responders, "So, again, continue doing what you do better than anybody in the world. We appreciate it a lot. And the safety and the lives that you save — incredible."

Merseyside Police has announced it will get tough on criminal and antisocial use of quads and scrambler bikes this summer. Officers will target places identified by the public as quad and scrambler hotspots, including parks and roads. Both plain-clothes and high-visibility patrols will play a part in the Merseyside-wide Operation Brookdale, gathering intelligence from communities, enforcing traffic laws, preventing illegal riders from topping up at petrol stations, and educating schoolchildren about biking laws. Quad bikes and scramblers are subject to the same rules as other motor vehicles, and drivers mst therefore have a licence, insurance and an up-to-date MOT. Police have also warned that parents who allow their children to ride bikes in a public place risk being prosecuted. Phone your local police station on 101 to report antisocial or criminal use of bikes in your neighbourhood.

Contests on myCharm What is for us chocolate? Pleasure, vigor and beauty. For more than 500 years, Europeans have enjoyed the taste of chocolate, and many even can not imagine how their ancestors lived without it. For 1500 years BC the Gulf of Mexico was inhabited by tribes of the Olmec. Scientists say that they have laid the Indian tradition of lighting his pipe of peace, and the habit of chewing the fruits of stunted trees, which they called - «kakawa». For 1000 years BC, on the same land came the ancestors of the Mayan and Olmec civilization supplanted. In the 600 years of our era, the Maya built cities, castles, and began to grow cocoa plantations. They had a lot of recipes for this drink with a variety of additives. And even had a god who, in their opinion, and raised garden with trees, which grow cocoa beans. But after 1200 the Mayan civilization replaced the Aztecs who inhabited these lands up to the invasion of the Spaniards. In 1521, the Aztec empire was destroyed. The Aztecs cocoa beans replaced the money. Preserved interesting data, such as turkey cost 200 cocoa beans, and services prostitutes - 6 grains. The word chocolate in the Indian language consisted of two words - «choco», foam and «atl», water - probably due to the fact that the original chocolate was only a drink. It is believed that the first European to try chocolate was Christopher Columbus, and it happened in 1502. It is said that the drink is absolutely not like Columbus, but he still prepodnёs cocoa beans from his fourth expedition to the New World to King Ferdinand. However, when this gift no one paid due attention, and they are quite simply lost. Appreciate the Indians managed to drink Fernando Cortes, its flavor and restorative properties have led to the delight colonizer. In 1526, a box of cocoa bean was brought to Spain and won the king and courtiers. Soon, the morning cup of cocoa has become a ritual of the nobility. The Church tried to condemn and prohibit the use of cocoa. The struggle between opponents and defenders of chocolate lasted for as long as a cup of drink not brought the Pope Pius V. After tasting the drink, he said the famous phrase: "Chocolate does not break the fast. It can not bring this stuff to someone fun. " In fact, it brings a lot. Chocolate contains phenylethylamine and theobromine, which promote the development of happiness hormone, causing an increase in a certain mood and euphoria. In the Middle Ages used chocolate as a remedy against colds and even consumption. Men actively treated their sexual problems. For example, Casanova believed that it was a morning cup chocolate allowed him to be known as a tireless lover. The first solid chocolate was introduced to the market the Swiss Daniel Peter in 1879. Since then chocolate march around the world, bringing joy to millions of people around the world. And more chocolate is the cause of beauty . Masks, wraps, massages, baths - women learned to derive enormous benefits of chocolate. - The mask gives the skin a tan Melt a small tile of dark chocolate, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil, stir, cool slightly and apply on face. After ten minutes, rinse with lukewarm water. - Mask for oily skin 2 tbsp. tablespoons of melted dark chocolate mixed with 2 tbsp. spoons pulp kiwi, transformed into a puree. Apply on face for 10 minutes. Rinse with warm water, wash cold. - The mask for dry skin Melt a small tile white chocolate, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil and 2 teaspoons of sour cream and mix. Apply on face for 10 minutes, rinse with lukewarm weak brew green tea. After another 10 minutes, wash with cool water.

Spanberger statement on reported conditions at Border Patrol facilities Front Page » Politics » Spanberger statement on reported conditions at Border Patrol facilities Rep. Abigail Spanberger today released the following statement after reports of poor conditions at U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) facilities near the southern border. "As a current U.S. public official, former federal law enforcement agent, and parent, I am appalled at recent reports coming from our southern border. The cruel conditions at the CBP facility described in the press are beneath the dignity of our great nation and will only serve to exacerbate the intense trauma among detained children and their families—and I'm particularly horrified by the descriptions of unsanitary conditions, untreated illnesses, and overcrowding. "The mistreatment of children is not an American value—and to witness it under the guise of national security priorities is particularly offensive. While there is no question that we can do more to strengthen the security of our borders and ports of entry, treating children with this level of neglect and inhumanity runs counter to who we are as a country. "Congress must take immediate action to provide support that addresses the influx of those legally seeking asylum, as well as those currently detained at CBP facilities. This process must begin by pursuing legislation that would improve conditions for children, while also giving clarity of purpose, purview, and requirements to our Border Patrol agents. I will continue to push the U.S. House to vote on a package to directly address and prevent these dire conditions and to fund the necessary resources to improve conditions at detention facilities—but we must simultaneously work to pass an immigration and security bill that will address the root causes of this crisis, ensure our national security, and uphold our values."

MetaPages From iGeek File:Breitbart News.svg Breitbart news is the CNN, or MSNBC of the right -- if CNN/MSNBC were websites that did more news and less opinion. (Far more a News site than HuffPo). Breitbart was founded by Andrew Breitbart (Jew) to rebut the anti-Jewish and anti-Israel agenda in the mainstream media, which it does well, and it was staffed with an over-representation of Jewish folks. They get painted as a far right site, and they are open about their conservative slant, but their whole purpose is to debunk the regular left leaning slant in most of the rest of the media. Steve Bannon - If you believe the left, Steve Bannon is a homophobic, racist, anti-semite, xenophobe. Or an accomplished naval officer, with two Masters Degrees, an investment banking background, an unapologetic pro-Israel and pro-liberty CEO of Breitbart.com (if you believe the facts). I have found no evidence of the former, though there's certainly more complexity and some things to not love about his political positions. So there's the caricature I usually hear on the likes of NPR or in most of the media... but then places like The Boston Globe did a shockingly fair piece on him. I have never gotten an answer why a racist, anti-semite would have been the editor for Breitbart: founded by Andrew (a Jew) to rebut the anti-Jewish and anti-Israel agenda in the mainstream media. Or why many Jews on staff would defend such an imagined bigot. But when it comes to hating right wingers, things don't need to make sense for the left. Milo Yiannopoulos - Milo Yiannopoulos is a flamboyant gay conservative tech-journalist, entrepreneur, public speaker (whose Dad is Jewish), with a penchant for Black partners. The left calls him a racist, homophobic anti-semite hate-monger, based on his pet causes and perpetual attacks against: political correctness, fascist-feminism, and Social Justice Warriors attacks on him, free speech, and anyone that doesn't agree with them. Alt-right - While many people don't know what the term Alt-Right really means, if they're getting their cues from the mainstream media, they think it's a formal group or caucus that's the Nazi/Racist wing of the Republican party. Though I'm not sure how they can tell that for the normal Republicans, since that's how they're presented as well. But the term "Alt-right" is highly overloaded, and means different things depending on who was saying it and the context and time it was said. 2019.02.18 Laura Logan - CBS's Foreign Correspondent (Laura Logan) admitted that she might be committing political suicide by admitting the political truth (something frowned on at CBS), that the media is widely far-left leaning and under-represents the other side of stories. According to her, you have to actively seek out Breitbart or FoxNews to get a balance and understand both sides of a topic. This is no shock to conservatives or the informed -- the left will now seek to get her fired for telling that obvious truth. 2018.10.03 Breitbart Blacklisted by Wikipedia - You don't have to like Breitbart, to admit that it's a news source that's broken some pretty good scoops, and done some serious investigative journalism. They of course have an obvious bias, but so do all the others. Banning Breitbart as a trusted news source, without being able to site examples of why or what standard they broke that others they tolerate hasn't as well, is pure leftist politics. It's like Joseph Stalin purging figures of people he didn't like from Soviet history. At least while still allowing partisan sources such as CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR, NYT, WaPo and HuffPo. Pick a standard, and ban everyone based on that. But you don't get to have arbitrary standards. So the fact that the latter is blanket allowed, and the former is not, is not a reflection on Breitbart's bias but on Wikipedia's. I would tell anyone to not trust ANY website or news source. Always question, or leave room for doubt. Breitbart is no exception to the rule. But what I like about them is they break news that the other left wing sites suppress, they backup their material more (because they are being held to a higher standard for being right wing), they are open about their biases unlike CNN, NYT or WaPo that likes to pretend they're not biased (while obviously failing). That being said, they have made mistakes -- and corrected them. Most of the hand waiving about errors turns out to pretty pedantic shit, once you look into it. (Where they were materially correct). The biggest gotcha the left has, is that they said they weren't going to allow a platform for the alt-right, long before the alt-right was established into what it later coalesced into. Ah ha! Gotcha. That's like saying that CNN was completely behind Antifa, BLM, SPLC or Jussie Smollett, before they were exposed as hate groups. It might not show great judgement as they should have known what they would devolve into -- but it's a tad unfair to misrepresent it based on what they knew at the time. 📚 References https://www.breitbart.com Retrieved from "http://igeek.com/w/index.php?title=Breitbart&oldid=33036" About iGeek

If you would like to purchase a DVD copy of one of our programs use the contact form here. The Intercommunity Cable Regulatory Commission (ICRC) of Southwest Ohio is a non-profit consortium of 24 communities in the Greater Cincinnati area. The primary mission of the ICRC is to produce and facilitate local cable television programming for its member communities. Funding is received indirectly from the cable television subscribers in the ICRC member communities. The cable subscriber pays a 5% Franchise Fee to the cable provider (Spectrum or Cincinnati Bell) and that money is paid to the community in exchange for using the community's rights of way. For communities who are part of the ICRC, 2 of that 5% (40% of the fee collected by the community) goes to the ICRC. The ICRC programs 6 channels on the Spectrum cable system. Three of these channels, (4, 8, 15) are programmed full time and the other three, (17, 18, 24) are programmed part time on a shared basis with either WCET-TV48 or other area cable access centers. On the Cincinnati Bell Fioptics system the ICRC programs five channels, (834, 838, 845, 847, 848) on a full time basis. The schedule and content is identical between the two cable providers. Just add the number 830 to any Spectrum channel to find the equivalent Cincinnati Bell channel, (Spectrum Channel 4 = Cincy Bell Channel 834). The only exception is Spectrum Channel 24, which is not seen on the Cincinnati Bell system.

Adam Ottavino made some head-scratching comments during the offseason about how he would dominate a head-to-head match-up with Babe Ruth, and now the pitcher and the New York Yankees are having fun with the regrettable chatter. Ottavino, who signed a three-year, $27 million with the Yankees in January, raised eyebrows in December when he cast aspersions about the Sultan of Swat's hitting prowess, arguing he "would strike Babe Ruth out every time," among other boasts. Evidently not enough flak, as the Yankees, with Ottavino's involvement, created a brilliant video in which the pitcher has a dream about facing The Babe. The footage is presented in a style befitting of Ruth's era and it's fantastic. Also, to no surprise, Ottavino does not fare as well against Ruth as he once envisioned. "Did I really say I'd strike Babe Ruth out every time?" Ottavino says in a voiceover, while warming up on the mound at the original Yankee Stadium, while video of Ruth swinging is shown, via the New York Post. In a word, brilliant. Odds are Ottavino has learned his lesson about making such outrageous statements, and the pitcher deserves credit for having such a great sense of humor about his boastful gaffe.

The WordJanuary 1, 2000 issue Seek and You Shall Be Found John R. DonahueJanuary 01, 2000 The liturgical year involves the festal cycle comprising Advent-Christmas and Lent-Paschaltide, and ordinary time, which is the weekly celebration of the extraordinary event of the proclamation of the word, and the eucharistic paschal mystery. After the Baptism of the Lord the readings of the second and third Sundays of this time focus on discipleship, a sign that our "ordinary" lives unfold as a following of Christ. The theme of call and response permeates the readings. Samuel, who was to be the great prophet who anointed David, receives a threefold call while sleeping (an encouraging note to preacher and people on a gray mid-January Sunday) and finally responds: "Speak, Lord for your servant is listening." The Lectionary unfortunately omits 1 Sam. 3:11, the words Samuel hears from God: "I am about to do something in Israel that will cause the ears of everyone to ring." God is literally commissioning a "wake-up" call to the people. The Gospel from John depicts the call and response of Jesus' first followers, as part of a series of initial revelations of Jesus that culminate at the wedding feast at Cana, at which Jesus "revealed his glory and the disciples believed in him." The "calls" reflect distinctive Johannine themes. John is a witness who points out Jesus as "lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world," evoking the suffering servant of Isa. 53:5-12 and the sacrifice of the paschal lamb. The two disciples follow Jesus, but, unlike the Synoptics, Jesus asks, "What are you looking for?" They respond "Rabbi" (an inadequate answer), but Jesus invites them to stay (abide) with him. On the next day Andrew finds his brother Simon, tells him, "We have found the Messiah" and brings him to Jesus, from whom he receives the name Kephas (Peter). This narrative is a Johannine "coming to faith" story not only for John's original readers but for Christians today. The questions and commands highlight the process: "What are you looking for?" "Where are you staying?" "Come and you will see." People come to Jesus on the testimony of others; Jesus enters their lives as a response to their deepest longing, and only after "staying" with him can they confess him as "Christ." This article also appeared in print, under the headline "Seek and You Shall Be Found," in the January 1, 2000, issue. John R. Donahue John R. Donahue, S.J., is professor of New Testament studies at the Jesuit School of Theology and Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, Calif. Salt is the good stuff Feb. 5, 2023, The Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time: In the light of discipleship, salt represents a gift of the highest value. Victor Cancino, S.J.February 01, 2023 When the Bible reverses the status quo Jan. 29, 2023, The Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time: One of the Bible's common motifs is that God honors those whom the world considers disgraced. The readings this Sunday illustrate dramatically this reversal of the status quo. Victor Cancino, S.J.January 25, 2023 What light and darkness represent in the Gospels Jan. 22, 2023, The Third Sunday in Ordinary Time: Like the original disciples, as we observe and discern Jesus' specific actions and words, we can catch glimpses of the light that leads us into the land of the living. The theological landscape of Jesus Like the light of the Mission Mountains, the full experience of Jesus' salvation is a reality that cannot be captured in word or image, but must be entered and experienced to be understood.

Which totally seems my default setting of late. But! In my defense, I've been learning a bunch of new technology and becoming fluent (or, at least, more frequent) in several nerd-verses that I was only casually familiar with before. And, I've taken on 3/4 of the social media for The Rainbow Hub, so that took up a little time since Google+ doesn't have a scheduling feature. Seriously, WTAF, Google? Put in a freakin' scheduling feature. It's, like, basic. I AM THE BUSIEST SQUID! But, I'm okay with that. I have also–in case y'all have missed my freaking out on other social media platforms (of which there are many)–applied for Dashcon. My darling Susi approved of it, and there are few people more difficult to please academically than Susi. I know that I applied late, and I probably won't be accepted because of it, but–OMG–I APPLIED FOR THE ARTIST ALLEY AT A DASHCON. I feel like every moment not spent doing things for The Hub must-needs be spent doing–something. I have, due to really good sales going on, ordered more prints and a freakin' banner. NO ONE CAN DOUBT MY COMMITMENT TO SPARKLE MOTION. The prints are a little less pop-y and a little more abstract, so we'll see how that goes. A PREVIEW! And, I know some people were waiting for that flying fox, so there y'all go. Also, very exciting, I HAVE FINALLY FIGURED OUT REDBUBBLE IN WAYS THAT DON'T END WITH ME IN TEARS and, that means, SHIRTS and STICKERS and CASES! Oh, my! Last weird bit of tentacle-made studios news. I know that there are some people who are wanting me to make a book out of my sketch-a-day series, and I'm thinking about Kickstarter-ing a book(let) fund. So, that's something to be looking for in the near future.

The Kakuma refugee camp in Northern Kenya, one of the largest refugee camps in the region, is more than 20 years old and home to more than 100,000 people, mostly from Somalia and South Sudan. Women and children account for 84% of the population. Last month, I traveled to the Kakuma camp to see firsthand the life-saving work of the United Nations and its partners. The day I visited, more than 1,500 people came across the border into Kenya. Most refugees arrive with very little money or belongings, and UN agencies and their partners work in lockstep to address their needs: providing transportation from the border to the camp, as well as shelter, food, anti-malaria bed nets, and medical attention. 1. The Resilience of Refugees: The families living in the camp impressed me with their dignity, resilience, and desire to find a safe space for their children to grow up. There is self-governance within the camp so refugees can represent their needs and rights, and it's become a place for entrepreneurship, with a thriving marketplace where people sell or barter services from haircuts to Ethiopian food. Refugees are not just residents of the camp, they're partners in building a community. 2. The Importance of Partnerships: The camp is able to provide for refugees because of true partnership between UN agencies and non-governmental aid organizations on the ground. In addition to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), the World Food Programme (WFP) provides rations, UNICEF focuses on education, Film Aid helps spread information accurately and quickly, the Lutheran World Federation provides community services, and the International Rescue Committee runs a hospital. My trip was a reminder of the important role that partners can and must play in supporting the UN. 3. The Spirit of Camp Workers: The workers in the camp, who come from both Kenya and places around the world, are filled with compassion and commitment to helping others survive. We need to acknowledge and support their work. 4. Addressing the Root Causes of Conflict: Many refugees spend most of their lives in the camp. I met one woman who came to the camp from Southern Sudan, when it was still part of Sudan. She grew up in the camp for about 25 years and returned to South Sudan when it became a new nation. Sadly, the violence there has forced her to again return to Kakuma. We need long-term solutions that allow refugees to return home. The global community must work with the UN to tackle the root causes of displacement – and supporting UN peacekeeping is absolutely vital to this effort. 5. We Can Help: Each of us can help the UN help refugees by raising awareness of and resources for the UN's work. For example, supporters of our Nothing But Nets campaign, working with UN partners, have helped provide 280,000 anti-malaria nets to the camp over the last six years. The trip was an important reminder that the UN is there for people when they are most vulnerable. I returned from Kakuma with important lessons and a renewed commitment to supporting the UN's work. We hope you will join us. Follow @unfoundation on Twitter to learn more about our work.

Why Do Ants Carry Dead Insects? By Anaëlle Laurent. March 23, 2020 Ants (Formicidae) are part of the hymenopteran family. They are well known for their interesting social behavior as these insects form large colonies that cooperate as a single unit. This feature has allowed them to take advantage of all available resources and thrive all over the planet. We often see ants collecting a variety of things, such as leaves or dead insects. But, why do they carry dead insects? Do they eat them or bury them? Learn the answer to these question and more in this AnimalWised article. You may also be interested in: Fun and Interesting Facts About Ants Characteristics of ants What do ants eat? Fun facts about ants To understand why ants do certain things, it's necessary to know the basics of their being. Here are the most important characteristics of ants: Anatomy: Their body is divided into three parts: head, metasoma (chest) and mesosoma (abdomen). On the head they contain a pair of antennae, compound eyes and a chewing mouth apparatus. Six legs emerge from the thorax and, only in sexed individuals, two pairs of wings. Metamorphosis: when an ant egg hatches, larvae without legs or heads emerge from it. It increases in size and transforms into immobile pupae. Then, they undergo a series of profound changes until they become adults. Anthills: almost all types of ants form large communities that carry out collective activities. To do this, they build a series of tunnels and rooms, usually on the ground or in trees. There, they take care of the larvae and store food. Breeds: in the same anthill there are three types of ants: workers, drones and a single queen. The queen and the drones are dedicated to reproduction, while the workers carry out all the tasks of the colony: harvesting, caring for the larvae, cleaning and defense. Pheromones: Ants have a complex communication system based on pheromones (hormones). Thanks to that, they can warn each other about a danger, mark the way to find food and more. Unfortunately, there is not one answer to this question. This is due to the fact that there are different types of ants with different diets. Their diet will depend on their species and the environment they live in. Consequently, we are going to show you the different types of ants according to their diet. They are as follows: Granivorous ants Predatory ants Farmer ants Grazing ants Mutual ants What do granivorous ants eat? Granivorous ants are those that feed on seeds. To do this, they collect large amounts of seeds and transport it long distances to their nest. Once there, they store the seeds in their anthill and protect them from fungus. All of these ants are essential for seed dispersal, as a good amount of the seeds they bury will sprout and become plants. Many important species of the genera Messor and Goniomma participate in this important work. What predatory ants eat Many ants are predators. The collecting workers are dedicated to hunting insects or other arthropods. So if you've wondered why ants carry other dead insects, this is the reason. Predatory ants feed off of them. In fact, some ants can even hunt larger animals, such as lizards or small mice. Due to their danger, they usually present the color red as a warning sign for their potential prey. So if you ever wondered what red ants eat, that's the answer. A good example of carnivorous ants are the Ecitoninae and Dorylinae subfamilies, known as soldier ants. These insects form nomadic groups that move continuously. In their path, they hunt the small animals that are found. However, they usually alternate their travels with sedentary phases in which the queen lays large amounts of eggs. What farm ants eat Many species of ants are mushroom farmers. They are dedicated to collecting different types of organic matter, especially leaves. In the anthill, other workers chew the leaves to mix them with their saliva and leave them in their "garden". The goal is to grow mushrooms and then eat them. Some examples of ants that grow mushrooms are the genera Atta and Acromyrmex, known as leaf cutter ants. What grazing ants eat Many ants graze on other arthropods of the Homoptera order, such as aphids or aphids. They gather them in groups and defend them from their predators in exchange for a very succulent food: honey drops. These are sugary substances from the sap of plants that aphids expel through the anus. Some ants, such as Camponotus inflatus, collect leaves full of honey drops and carry them to the anthill. There, caretaker ants use them to feed other workers. This is the "honey pot" ants, whose abdomen is compliant and becomes a kind of pot that they fill with honey. This food is a food reserve for the entire colony. Image: ca.wikipedia.org What mutualistic ants eat Lastly, we cannot forget about mutualistic ants. These are insects that live inside the spines of some plants, such as acacia trees ( Acacia spp.). These provide them with food and shelter in exchange for defending them from herbivorous animals. The Pseudomyrmex ants can fulfill this function very well. Among the foods plants provide to ants are "Beltian bodies," some reddish balls that appear at the tips of the leaves. In addition, these plants often offer a nutritious extrafloral nectar that they secrete through the leaves. Now that we know what ants eat, let's answer some of the most common questions about these eusocial insects. These are just some of many fun facts about them. Why are all worker ants female? As we already know, queens are dedicated to laying eggs. These can be of two types: fertilized by males (diploid) or unfertilized (haploid). Haploid eggs give rise to drones or male ants, whose sole mission is to fertilize the queen for the production of diploid eggs. These give rise to female ants that can be workers or new queens. What differentiates worker ants from the queen? Worker ants receive a regular diet, whereas the queen receives a diet very rich in protein. This difference in feeding activates or inactivates certain genes, causing differences in the development of the larvae. As a result, they will have a different shape and behavior. This is an example of epigenetics. Why are there ants with wings? Only new queens and drones have wings. The new queens are winged because they leave the colony to form a new one. Outside they are paired with a drone, also winged, and carry out the so-called "nuptial flight". During this process copulation takes place. Afterwards, the queen searches for a place to hibernate. Once there, he loses his wings and builds a small anthill where he lays his eggs. These will give rise to the first workers of the new colony. Why don't worker ants lay eggs? In some species, workers are born with atrophied ovaries. However, there are species in which sterility is reversible. In these cases, it is the queen who controls the sterility of the workers through the secretion of inhibitory hormones. In fact, workers who are away from the queen's influence for a time may lay unfertilized eggs, resulting in drones. Can there be different types of workers? Some species have workers of different sizes that fulfill different functions. In these cases, we say that there are subclasses. Usually, the largest are soldiers who defend the colony. The rest can distribute the work between collectors and "housewives". In other species all workers are the same. However, there is also a deal at work. The youngest ants are dedicated to the internal work of the colony, while the oldest ants go outside to collect. Do ants eat their dead? Not only do we see ants carrying other dead insects, but sometimes we see ants carrying other ants. So it's common to ask ourselves whether they eat their dead. The answer is no. Although predatory ants eat other insects and may even hunt other species of ants, they do not eat their own dead ants. When we see them carrying an ant back to their anthill it is because this ant is simply injured, not dead. However, if they are carrying an ant out of their anthill, this is because that ant has died. Ants will carry their dead out of their nesting area as a sanitary measure to prevent diseases or infection from spreading throughout the colony. This social behavior is called necrophoresis.

Does anyone have a functional scheduler/command based structure which uses the PIDCommand/PIDSubsystem class from robotpy as well as using the input from Encoders? We cannot find a clear example. I'm not aware of an example, but the normal WPILib documentation should be pretty close. I don't use command based stuff myself, so I can't provide an example. Do you use a particular framework? We moved from java/command-based to python this year (mostly because of the simulator) and I'm considering ditching the command-based framework as well. I actually think it makes things more confusing for the kids. . Seems to work fine for us. Good to know on the non-lambda as well. Thank you! Command based I think is a good skill but the pid loop part has me beat. Before realizing there was command structure in robotpy we were basing our code around subsystem and command modules just because it made sense for organization to me. Am I correct that target distance shown in your photo is not used? Correct - not used. It was intended (eventually) for encoders to track distance. The design was to use the gyro & a PID loop to drive straight until the encoder said we'd gone as far as needed (the targetDistance). The the command's isFinished() would return True. I created the magicbot framework a few years ago, and it is distributed with RobotPy as part of the robotpy-wpilib-utilities package. See https://robotpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/frameworks/magicbot.html for documentation. It's simpler for some uses, and more complex for others. I've been meaning to build better abstractions for buttons and PID related things, but haven't yet done so. So if the pid.setSetpoint is in the init of a command how do you continuously update the setpoint? In my case I am controlling the velocity of an arm and the velocity it should be at varies continuously. Thus I am unsure how often your setsetpoint is called in your example; I am also unsure how pid.setcontinuous affects how often the pid loop is called in general. Also I can't seem to find setSetpoint in the documentation for PIDController. I assume PIDBase has that function but I can't find that in the docs either. Short answer is, I don't - it's the target value (think your thermostat setting at home). Hence it's constant, called once in initialize(). I suppose you could do something where the execute() method updates it, but I've never tried this, so have little advice to offer. Perhaps others have? Re the frequency the PID loop runs at, IIRC, it runs in its own thread, but I'm not sure if it's synchronized with the Scheduler(). Sorry I couldn't be more help on that. Re the doc - yes, setSetpoint is defined in PIDInterface and implemented in PIDBase. See the Javadoc (this java doc gave me better insight than the Pydocs). I assume PIDBase has that function but I can't find that in the docs either.

'The Situation' Pleads Guilty as 'Jersey Shore' Films 2018 Season Eight years after he introduced a generation to the Gym-Tan-Laundry lifestyle, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino pleaded guilty Friday to tax fraud. Josh Russell / January 19, 2018 NEWARK, N.J. (CN) - Eight years after he introduced a generation to the Gym-Tan-Laundry lifestyle, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino pleaded guilty Friday to tax fraud. Prosecutors accused The Situation and his brother, Marc Sorrentino, in 2014 of evading taxes on income of nearly $9 million, but the men's plea deals in New Jersey are largely silent on numbers. The Situation, 36, faces up to five years in prison after copping to one count of tax evasion. Marc Sorrentino, 38, faces up to three years for aiding in the preparation of a fraudulent tax return. While his brother's deal relates to tax-year 2010, The Situation's plea covers taxable income he earned in 2011. The Situation told U.S. District Judge Susan Wigenton this morning that he tried to hide his financial activities from authorities by making bank deposits in cash amounts of less than $10,000. Three years earlier, accountant Gregg Mark pleaded guilty to filing false tax returns from the Sorrentino brothers between 2010 and 2013. "All of us are required by law to pay our fair share of taxes," U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito said in a statement. "Celebrity status does not provide a free pass from this obligation." Attorneys for The Situation said their client intends to make restitution before sentencing, noting that the formerly hard-partying reality TV star has now been sober for two years. With today's guilty plea, Sorrentino "has come to terms with mistakes he made at a very different and tumultuous time in his life," said Henry Klingeman and Kristen Santillo with the firm Krovatin Klingeman. The attorneys said the terms of agreement "call for a balance between punishing the wrong committed and conditions that facilitate Mike living a productive, law-abiding life moving forward." Sorrentino rose to fame with the December 2009 premiere of MTV's "Jersey Shore." Though the show has been off the air since 2012, news reports say members of the former cast began filming a reunion season in Miami this week. Attorneys for The Situation referenced the upcoming season of "Jersey Shore: Family Vacation" in their statement, promising Sorrentino "will continue to entertain millions on 'Jersey Shore.'" In the 2014 indictment, prosecutors accused the Sorrentinos of wrongly claiming luxury cars, flashy clothes and other swag as business expenses.

Chapter 280: Sudden Reunion The blue sky, the pure white snow and the trees of the forest with their lonely colors peeking out from under their snow caps. Neia was standing on a stump at the edge of the forest in a familiar landscape. "Ah, Smithson-san" "Just a little training, patrolling for monsters" "Training?" "You can maintain your arm and leg strength with simple training and hot springs, but your senses will be clouded if you don't keep them honed. ……While searching for monsters, we use our sensing abilities to the fullest in places like this. Animals, birds, wind, snow……all have information to offer" "……You know how to sense the presence?" "It's a little different, but if you can handle it with the same feeling, it's better than that" Neia closes her eyes and mutters while holding her hat. "The flow of Qi is stable. I'm sure monsters won't be around for a while" "You said you were on patrol, but have you defeated any of them since you got here?" "Yes, a few wolf monsters" ……Unbeknownst to people, it seems that part of Polka's peace was kept by her. "……I'm glad it's not a place where bandits and such roam. People can be a pain" "'In Kalwin, sometimes people would try to steal the crops of other settlements. No one is rich, so they want something to eat even if they have to do that. ……Moreover if it is revealed, they are guilty of death. If they are docile, they will let the villagers dispose of them. ……It's lawless. There are some who are so desperate that they will turn on the villagers who are like family to them. It's also the role of the Hero to execute such people" It's a story that can be told anywhere. Now that transportation has improved, the probability of getting food from other places has also improved and localized droughts and famines caused by storms do not often develop into serious situations. Still, there are times when they do. Whenever I hear of a crime that has occurred due to such circumstances, it is always depressing. "People pretend to be something they are not. I'm sure you'll agree. ……We, heroes, are also deceived. But the one who is robbed is too helpless to remain deceived. And those who have been robbed and done well will get a taste and repeat the same thing and eventually, we will judge them. ……Have you ever killed anyone, Smithson-san?" "'……I have. I don't think I've killed fifty people yet" It's not that I haven't had the opportunity to kill people, like in military service, or even in a counterattack against bandits sometime. And the crossbow is an excellent weapon and Dianne is an excellent commander. If we fight, it will be a one-sided battle that we win. I have no doubt that I and of course Anzeros and Keiron, have killed more than we can use with both hands. "……Even for someone like you, it's still true" "'I'm a soldier. And Celesta is not very safe" "I've probably cut down about a hundred people" Neia pulled her hat a little deeper into her eyes. "I can only do so much. A hero can only face his problems with a blade. ……I'm sure there's no place for me in a future where everyone is happy because that's all I can do" "Neia" "……No, I'm talking to myself. Forget it" Neia raises the brim of her hat and hides behind a bright smile. ……I was trying to say something comforting to her, but I couldn't……think of anything, so I fumbled with my lips. "……Shoes are ready, come to old Harry" Eventually, she runs off on her errand. Even though I'm known as a quote maker, I'm still 「Shallow」. I'm not sure how far I can go to get to the really heavy problems that may not be solved by just being there for them. ……Though I think that thinking that way may be a big deal. "That, please let go. It's hard to walk" "No. Your hands are too cold" "It's not like I'm getting frostbite" 『……Neia. I think it's perfectly acceptable to have your hands warmed up』 "Shut up, Flash Sword! Rather, don't speak suddenly before I make a voice barrier!" The shoes seemed to be well received by Neia. "I……this, these are boots that are easy to move. It's like wearing socks" "Well-fitted footwear always feels that way, because you can't wear something that doesn't fit. They're made to be soft, though, so be careful of sprains and strains" "Yes……thank you!" The boots fit Neia's feet perfectly, with very little adjustment. They were not only soft, but sturdy and they were designed to keep the greaves from shifting when they were put together. It's a test for me to work hard enough to fit these. ……I'm excited. Top-notch work is inspirational. "Thank you, old man. I'm sure you'll get your payment from Celesta's accounting department" "Hoohoohoo. It's been a while since I've had the pleasure of working with you. I'm the one who should thank you, Andy" The handshake was firm. I can feel the spirit of a first-class craftsman and the passion of a Polka-dot child in his hands. Old man Harry's will to do a good job for good tits. Neia didn't seem to understand the deepening friendship between me and the old man. The Baron will have a feast on the last night before the departure. "Come on, Andy. You're coming home safely this time" This person is generous, but I wonder if it's okay. ……However, it seems that the territory here is quite large as a barony territory. I'm not sure if it's something I should be worried about. "Don't feel lonely just because I'm not here. If you want, you can start now……." "Irina! How dare you impose on me alone?" "I, I'm just kidding, don't get angry, Christie. ……I've brought in a housekeeper from my clan for your house. The foundation has already been laid and I expect it to take shape within two weeks at the earliest" "Like that" "Isaac is clearing away the snow. Besides, the ogre from Dianne's unit is helping with the heavy lifting. It's good to know that someone can handle a log alone" It seems that before I knew it, they had started building my new house. They're so quick with their hands. "I wanted to think about the layout and stuff……" "If you want, you can build an addition later. I've made it so that about ten people can sleep and wake up comfortably for now" "Ten people?" It may or may not be enough. Either way, I don't have to let the Renfangas group or the four elf girls live there yet. "Oh, it's about Andy's new house. Don't worry, if it's not enough, I'll make arrangements for you to have a separate house" The Baron was being generous. "But if it's too big, it's hard to take care of the house" On the other hand, it means Aurora is dressed in a maid outfit. ……Is she becoming more and more worried about housework? "Leave it to us" "I'll do my best while you're away♪" And then, the four elf slaves in maid's uniforms smilingly entered the conversation. I'm not sure why the maids are all over the place around me and Irina. "It's a good thing that Fennel and Aurora are okay, but Savory and the others aren't maids here, so wouldn't it be annoying if they looked confusing?" "Don't worry. We're just here to help serving♪" "I can't help you with your military work, so I want to be able to do these things properly" Savory, Oregano and Laurier all strike a motivational pose at once. I don't think the pose of raising and stretching arms while standing on the tip of the toe is the correct attitude as a maid, but the baron and the invited guests, Polka's uncles and aunts, were all clapping their hands in a gorgeous atmosphere. "Umm. I'd like to see the maids of my house do this kind of pose……ouch" "Dear, these are precious daughters entrusted to you by a stranger" "I, I know, let go of my beard" The Baron's plot was immediately shot down by his wife. The next morning. We split up into carriages and took off from Polka. "I'll be waiting for your souvenirs" "Don't forget it!" The masturbation brothers, who hold a towel with a basin and say, 「I'm going to a hot spring」, are waving while saying something illustrious. It is true that they ordered Celesta's cigarettes, liquor and ham as souvenirs, but they should have a little more respect for their boss. Also, the cat girls and elf girls have gathered and are waving. They said, 「Come back soon」, in a safe and very modest way. "Don't worry, they'll be back soon" "That's right. We're a little busy, though" Luna and Hilda are muttering. ……No, wasn't it supposed to be that way? "No, it's not a call for me to come back!?" "Ah, yeah. But you'll be back soon, right?" "Good luck, Andy-kun☆" ……If I think about it, assuming that it is mainly a call to me, it also means that I should come back soon and have sex with them. I feel that it is neither modest nor safe at all. "Give my regards to Kate and Rinne and to Boyd, too" Isaac is also quite selfish, but I feel that it is quite common sense compared to others. First, without crossing the Snake Mountains, we headed for Basson along the mountain range, riding a steady air current. Laila and Maia each have a separate carriage. We're riding in one of them, but in terms of the original number of people, one carriage is enough. The other carriage is for transporting the cat beasts. We'll move our base to Basson, where we'll give everyone a few days of free time while we move the injured and sick from the cat beast colony to Polka. Then, once everyone has been treated, we'll return to Basson and reenter Renfangas to greet people and gather information. In some cases, it was Diane's plan to drop the Gauntlets and return to Polka to formulate the next action plan. ……We feel free to use that super-mobility, but it can be said that it is impossible in this era. "But if it weren't for the dragons, we'd have to go, come back and make a detour and the winter would be over just getting around" "Depending on the weather, we might not even be able to move" Naris and Tetes muttered to themselves. "It's really different, but is it okay to drive around a dragon so flashy? 100-man commander Dianne" "Politically, we've taken some steps. The fact that Andy is a rider is an international secret" "We know that, though" Tetes points at herself with a smile. It's like trying. But Dianne is relaxed. "I don't care if you do, but I don't think anyone in Renfangas, including Tetes and Sir Buster, will benefit from exposing it" "Well, that's right" "There are many people who know that Andy is a dragon rider in that sense. Both in the royal capital and in Celesta. But as long as you keep it a secret, there are more people who benefit from it. If they really want to ruin Andy's life, they can go to the politicians of the anti-Dark Elf faction in Celesta. Most likely, though, it'll just cause their base to retract from Polka into the northern forest" "……Umm. So you're in a bit of a strange position, 10-man captain Smithson" "Who said that you make three times as many allies as enemies? Andy is really getting around in that sense. He has a lot of allies, not the least of which are me and Laila. Some of them, no matter how much political or financial power they have, can rarely be controlled. It's a state of affairs that is more advantageous for many mundanes to exploit indirectly than to touch" "……That's right. Umm" Tetes groaned at Dianne's explanation. She glances at me wondering why such a person. I agree with her, though. "A man like that makes it his ultimate goal to become a blacksmith in the countryside. It's strange" Almeida chuckled. It's true that I'm in the middle of a lot of big things, but I'm not in a very good position. "It's not all about gaining power, you know. It's just that Smithson-san understands that you don't have to armor yourself with worldly power to achieve happiness……" Sharon has a very favorable view of me. But, well. "I'm sure it's a bit of a struggle when you're not making that much money" The truth leaked out. I'd like to be great if I could, but I know I'm not cut out for that. Laila and Maia are strong, but when they ask me to start a fight with them, I'm not someone who can shake my head. I don't have the capacity to really wield the 「Power」 that I have. So, I'm going to become someone who can at least make as much money as others. That's all. I'm sure that if I maintain my current harem, I'll need a huge amount of support, including from slaves, barons and dragons and I won't be able to rely on that. Even so, I want to make sure that I can manage my own situation. In a way, it's a small pride, a vicious struggle. "Ah, Andy is getting darker and darker……" "It's okay. What you lack, I make up for. That's what makes a good woman, a good slave" Anzeros and Aurora comforted me. Yes. You guys are sensitive and a little too meddlesome, but I'm glad. "……I wonder if it's 10-man captain Smithson´s ability to make all kinds of strong people say that……" "Ah. Tetes, the righteous knight. You should not try to dismiss Smithson with a single word in many ways. ……The more you look at these guys, the more you misjudge them" Tetes and Becker are having an unfamiliar conversation. No, I wonder if 100-man special duty commander Becker knows that Tetes was an intelligence agent called Blue Arm. In the evening, we arrived near Basson's corps building. "Okay, everyone rest until tomorrow. You can spend the day as you like. I want older sister to finish her shopping and other errands by tomorrow night" "Yes☆ H, Hey, Andy-kun, do you want a drink?" "Hilda-san, you know what……" It had been a long time since she had been to Celesta and now that she had a vacation almost exclusively for herself, Hilda was very excited. "I'm coming with you. I'm more worried about Andy than my older sister. He might get carried away with Celeste's drink after so long" "You don't trust me……" I'm not going to say anything back, because before I lost my virginity, all I did was drink. "I'll let you know how Mikagami and the others are doing. It might be helpful in the future" "Oh my God, are you getting ready to get pregnant, Anzeros-san?" "No, not at all! It's just that Andy might impregnate a few feline children in Polka……" "Anzeros-san, you're a real softie when it comes to……other people's children" "Ah, Andy's kids are my kids!" Apple and Aurora are dumbfounded by Anzeros. Luna is the only one nodding her head in agreement. Perhaps influenced by the colony's family values. "Is there a bathroom here?" "Ho, I believe we do. There are no men in the squadron now, so there's no need to wait in shifts" "Yay. But I'm also curious about Celesta's drink" "See you tomorrow, Naris. We have some time to kill anyway" "I'm afraid that if I go out too much in Celesta……I'll end up with a broken face" "I think Al-chan is probably okay, though. But there weren't many white elves in Celesta, right?" Neia, Laila and the gauntlets are heading to the bath. I'm sure it's for the exclusive use of Mikagami and the others now. Then, with 100-man commander Becker, Dark Elf Sisters and Maia, I head to the familiar bar. Occasionally, I'm at Celesta and I'm used to it, and alcohol is good. It's been a while since I've been to the bar, and it's as crowded as ever. Basson is a growing city, so it never seems to be deserted even when the crossbow corps isn't around. "Oya, 100-man commander Dianne. A little good man♪" The lady at the tavern looked at Becker and broke into a smile. Yes. It's not that I'm disappointed that she didn't look at me or anything. I'm familiar with her. "Older sister, a glass of ogre killer. And some snacks" I think that 100-man commander Becker who makes a quick flattery and earns a favorable impression is truly a good man. ……While we are having a good time, I hear music at the end of the bar. This is unusual. I wonder if some traveling entertainers are here. I stretch my neck to see if it's a traveling entertainer. "Why aren't we much further north than the desert!?" Dianne and Hilda rolled their eyes. In silence, the head of 100-man commander Becker also widened his eyes. There, accompanied by a band, she was dressed in a see-through costume. She has the appearance of a dark elf woman smiling in a hatefully picturesque pose. "Oh, unexpected meeting♪" She smiled and started dancing and she was undoubtedly called the jewel butterfly of the desert……its Nord-san. Previous chapter – ToC – Next chapter

Advice on dealing with your worst nightmare - a tax enquiry! Late payment penalty fines – will HMRC have to pay you back? What types of enquiry are there? Enquiries can be raised into company or personal tax, national insurance or VAT affairs. These will either be questions about a particular aspect of your tax affairs or else a general enquiry into all of your finances. They arise for a variety of reasons, the most basic being that the tax inspector saw an unusual ratio or pattern in the accounts presented and wanted more information. Ensure that he is entitled to ask the questions and for the information he is requesting. You would be surprised at how often there is a statutory defence to the questions asked. He will rely on the Inland Revenue manuals for handling the enquiry. Always ensure that this is backed up by tax law. At the end of the day enquiries are either about missing or incorrect information that has been supplied or they centre on interpretation of the tax code. At Parker Chartered Accountants we have great experience in this area and handle enquires into most areas of tax. Using experts, experienced in this field will mean your enquiry will progress more quickly and save you valuable time and resources. Our enquiry close rate is something that we are very pleased with and in many instances we have closed enquiries with minimal adjustment to tax.

Health education is the process by which people learn about their health and more specifically, motivate them with whatever interests they may have to improve their health and living conditions. Health education is critically important in improving the health of individuals and communities. Health education attempts to increase knowledge on the subject which leads to a change in attitudes about healthy and unhealthy behaviors. This change in attitude ideally leads to a change in behaviors from unhealthy to healthy, leading to an improvement in health, which is the ultimate goal of health education.

Senior: I love this small school! I've gone here my whole life and the community is unlike any other. The academics are superior, athletics programs are great, and the teachers and faculty are so invested in each student's excellence. Niche User: Ozark High School had the best teachers, especially in the math and science department, such as but not limited to Mr. Highfill and Ms. Smith.They were both very, VERY knowledgeable in their fields, made learning fun, and encouraged the continuance of absorbing knowledge past high school. Not college specifically--though that was mentioned numerous times--but the essence that a person can actually go beyond learning-applying-repeat, to actually considering the knowledge given and going on step further and manipulating and actually TRYING. That was the atmosphere I connected with most. Also, the councilor Cindy Kramer is all around awesome for what she does--even after I graduated, she helped me gain another scholarship to help cover my tuition costs later. Senior: Ever since I moved here my Junior year, it has been nothing but great! I've learned so much more than my old school ever offered me.

The basic idea of purchasing power parity (PPP) theory is that money, as such, has no value. It is merely a piece of metal, paper, or plastic—or even a phantasmic electronic entry. What gives money value is what you can do with it—what and how much you can purchase. PPP theory says simply that the exchange rate for a currency, in the long run, is based on the comparison of its purchasing power versus that of another currency. In the simplest example, if a basket of goods and services can be purchased for Rs 78,000 in India, and the same basket of goods and services can be purchased in the US for $1,000, then the PPP theoretical exchange rate should be $1 = Rs 78. Unfortunately, all monies (currencies) eventually lose value through a mysterious process called "inflation." Inflation is the erosion of a currency's purchasing power over time, typically years. The complication is that different currencies lose purchasing power at different rates. In short, the currency that has a higher inflation rate, such as the Indian rupee, should (and indeed will, in the long run), according to PPP theory, devalue against a reference currency, such as the US dollar (USD), that suffers lower inflation. A simple way of calculating this is to take the difference between the inflation rate of the rupee and that of the reference currency (e.g., USD) over a suitable period. According to the calculation of a thoughtful Indian business publication, LiveMint,* the Indian rupee should have devalued at a rate proportionate to the difference in the inflation between India and the US, calculated as an average annual 4.15 difference, as shown in the graph (click graph to see larger version in article*). If this is so, each year, on average, the Indian rupee should have devalued by 4.15 percent. However, it did not. The rupee devalued more slowly—less than it should have according to PPP theory. That means the rupee is somewhat overvalued. The author of the LiveMint article also tracks the rupee's real effective exchange rate (REER), not just against the US dollar, but against a mix of India's trading partner currencies. That analysis also reaches the same conclusion: that the rupee is overvalued. Inflation in the Indian economy has moderated recently, but remains higher than in the US. If this continues in the long run, the theory says, we should expect the rupee to continue to devalue against the dollar. *See Rajadhyaksha, N. (2018). Is the rupee undervalued or is it overvalued? (October 8).
