The first play that Bell Shakespeare ever performed was Hamlet. Staged in a circus tent in the Sydney Showgrounds in January 1991, the production was directed by John Bell with John Polson as Hamlet, and played in repertoire with The Merchant of Venice.
To celebrate its 30th anniversary, Bell Shakespeare is opening its 2020 season with a new production of Hamlet, directed by the company’s current Artistic Director Peter Evans. It’s the seventh time Bell Shakespeare has staged the play (or the 10th including the Education Program) with Christopher Stollery, Leon Ford, Brendan Cowell and Josh McConville among those playing Denmark’s “sweet prince”.

This time, Harriet Gordon-Anderson takes on the title role, and turns in a dazzling performance. It’s not the first time, by any means, that a female actor has played Hamlet, but it’s an inspired piece of casting. Gordon-Anderson doesn’t play the character as a woman, nor does she throw in macho mannerisms. She simply is Hamlet. Her short hair, black trousers and black polo neck jumper give her something of an androgynous look anyway, and in next to no time you think of her only as the son of Gertrude and King Hamlet. At the same time, perhaps there is a subtle underpinning to the production as the result of her casting, relating to the way men and women tend to deal differently with emotion.
Evans sets the play in 1960s Denmark, which makes for a stylish looking aesthetic. Anna Tregloan has designed a beautiful, wintry set, with snowy fir trees painted onto a backdrop, a white shag pile carpet suggesting the frozen ground, and the metal frame of what looks like a glass house in the centre of the stage to suggest the royal family’s living room. Inside that frame are a rug, modish chairs and a drinks trolley. Snow falls for much of the production, slowly layering the carpet and dusting the furniture and actors.

The costumes are 60s chic, creating a glamorous look for the women. Gertrude (Lisa McCune) looks elegant in a pale blue dress with matching shoes. Ophelia (Sophie Wilde) wears a yellow and white mini-dress with white tights and headband, and Guildenstern – also played by a female actor (Jane Mahady) – wears a green dress and white tights.
Video imagery is screened now and then on the back walls – primarily featuring nostalgic home footage of Hamlet as a young boy playing at the seaside with Gertrude, as well as images of Hamlet and Ophelia together. When images of Gertrude playing with her young son roll at the end as Hamlet’s death approaches, the joy from those lost times brings a lump to the throat.
Evans directs a beautifully paced, eloquent production, with lighting by Benjamin Cisterne, and sound design by Max Lyandvert. The storytelling is exceptionally clear, and each of the well-chosen cast is comfortable with the poetry. Gordon-Anderson uses the language with consummate ease. Hamlet has to utter lines that are so famous they can sometimes sound almost trite, but Gordon-Anderson makes everything sound fresh and highly intelligible, drawing you into the workings of the character’s mind through his complex soliloquies. She delivers the “to be, or not to be” speech sitting on the edge of the stage, and makes it sound spontaneous.
This Hamlet is far from mad. He is grieving, angry, quick-witted, touchingly youthful, devastated at his mother’s betrayal of his father, and determined to avenge his father’s murder. Keenly aware of what is transpiring, after the revelations from his father’s ghost, he quickly sees through Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, and plays with them by using slightly manic, sometimes sardonic humour to unsettle them. At the same time Gordon-Anderson makes Hamlet’s love for Ophelia abundantly plain with a telling expression to the audience, before the “get thee to a nunnery” scene.

Lisa McCune is a sympathetic, sensuous Gertrude, who clearly desires her new husband. She and James Lugton, as Claudius, are constantly touching each other, gently holding hands, while he often puts his arm around her protectively. Yet she is devoted to her son. In an early scene, when Claudius is berating Hamlet, McCune gently touches Lugton’s chest with her head as if to | [

So… you think kids are the only ones who cite 'no network' when they don’t want to be contacted? Think again!
I have had a frantic week searching for one of my cats who seemingly disappeared. She went out early last Saturday morning and today, a week later, she is still no-where to be seen. Much worrying and searching has been going on during that time in our household. We have been posting on our local community facebook page, putting up posters and giving out flyers.
Oh, and did I mention, I am an animal communicator..? So, it’s particularly frustrating when you can’t connect with your own. I did everything that has worked for me to date. I cleared time. I did a quick check in – nothing. A formal connection – nothing. A meditative energetic connection – nothing.
I started doubting my own abilities… as we humans tend to do. I wondered if I’d lost the skill, if I’d done something to block it; was I too emotionally invested in this one to make a difference?
I bothered my other cat incessantly; asking her to make a connection for me and ‘let me know’ – funnily enough, I got nothing from her either! This was all becoming very strange.
I worked on balancing and realigning my energy centres. I sat in quiet contemplation. I felt I did everything within my power to cleanse myself, quiet my mind, and connect – with permission – to my sweet kitty.
I reminded myself of my own code of ethics. How I should trust what I get, follow through on any information given, never make demands and always, always ask permission. Check, check, check and more check!
The silence was getting louder and louder – so I had to accept that too. The positive was that I felt calm internally and took this as a sign that all was well. But why then was she not home relaxing in comfort? Instead, being outside in well over 100 degrees and sleeping rough?
I had kept my mentor abreast of developments, and all the techniques I was using to make contact; I felt I had hit a brick wall and so reached out for a formal session.
Waiting for the connection, I had all sorts running through my mind – until I heard Jill say ‘I’ve got her… she says she hasn’t got long – she’s busy!’… I had to laugh!
The next part was particularly interesting, as in response to questioning her about whether she had heard my calls, she presented herself wearing a space helmet and told Jill that she has indeed been blocking me.
Turns out she is apparently somewhere close by and looking to bring some other animals into my energy space to offer them help. She is with them and gaining their trust. She sees it as a mission and that if she connected with me, I would simply go and get her, and bring her back home.
I’ve had to make a promise to her, that if she allows me to connect, in return I do not grab her and force her back, should I see her on one of my nightly walks. Reluctantly, I agreed with the caveat, that if she is hurt or in trouble she checks in and leads me to her. She agreed.
Reflecting today, I was drawn to how very special we all are. We are all individuals within this great cosmos and even though we are connected at an energetic level; the part of us that is projected into whatever form we take, has indeed got free will.
Her spirit chose to help, to be out there; to sacrifice the comfortable life, in order to follow her instincts. And that’s exactly what it is - instinctual. The animal kingdom lives and dies by its instincts, so who am I to interfere? We are each here on our own spiritual path and unique journey. Having the freedom to complete that, or at least continue on a forward trajectory, is a gift we should all give ourselves and each other.
Until she returns, I will hold her in the light and send her my love. I will stay alert but not step in and alter the direction or purpose of her mission.
Oh, and my other cat… she just refused to talk to me until I asked her something other than ‘can you please contact your sister?’! I guess that can get a bit tiresome…
So I will spend this time, chewing the fat with my fur baby who’s relaxing next to me and officially celebrate when her wandering sibling comes home. Lots of cuddles all around! | [

Long-Termers: Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV GX4hS
In its time on our fleet, this plug-in hybrid SUV has proved a remarkably good big car at going the distance on electric. For once, the makers’ claims can be backed up by action.
I regularly got more than 20 miles on electric, and up to 25 on some occasions. Just as Mitsubishi said I would. On longer trips, the petrol engine cuts in and you won’t get much more than 35mpg in total. Just as Mitsubishi said I would.
So this is a car for a specific need, which is somebody looking to save thousands of pounds in BiK, but not doing vast distances every day. If that is your drivers, then it fulfills that role.
Also, it is a big car with lots of space front, rear and boot and the hybrid powertain is as smooth as any out there. It’s actually pretty difficult to work out when it is running on petrol and on electric, it really is silent. Also, in these winter months I’ve loved the pre-heating facility that defrosts the car from the house with a dab on the iPod controller.
There are some less impressive aspects though. If your drivers are used to Germanic levels of build quality in their 30 grand cars, then they won’t find it here. Some of the plastics really aren’t very good and the infotainment and nav system is slow, fiddly and arcane. It certainly feels at least a generation or three back from the best in the premium sector.
That said, could you put up with some tinny construction and a decade old map screen in return for spending most of the time in saintly EV running mode, and a vast saving on tax bills? I know I could. Mitsubishi has come out of nowhere with this car, and put itself right in the fleet frame. | [

Has anyone used a yoshimura exhaust on there quad? I read the shoot-out in Dirtwheels on the 400Ex and the Yoshimura looked like a good pipe. Anyone who has used this pipe on Any quad please help me with your comments
Thanks for the helping Jake
I saw that article, there didn't seem to be too much difference in the performance of the all the pipes. I have a Stroker on my 400ex, with the K&N and a bigger jet, there was definite improvement in the quad's performance. That article didn't indicate much of horsepower gain for any of the pipes. Here are a couple of pics. | [

- Long history of the sport, and its embeddedness in the cultural economy of the Tamils.:
- The earliest evidence of the sport comes from Kalithogai, an anthology of 150 poems, which is part of the corpus of Tamil Sangam poetry.
- Dating to the early centuries of the common era, Kalithogai poems are found in the section on ‘Mullai’ — poems set in pastoral land — and provide the earliest descriptions of an ancient sport called eru thazhuvuthal (literally, ‘embracing the bull’).
- Attributed to poet Nalluruthiran, the five poems, totalling some 350 lines, conjure up the thrill, tumult and breathless pace of jallikattu. In the 14th century, the phenomenally erudite Nachinarkiniyar, praised as ‘star commentator among scholars’, provided glossary and elucidation — testimony that jallikattu was a continuing tradition.
- From these nearly 2000-year-old poems and their medieval commentary, it is striking how little the sport has changed: the mad rush of the bulls into the ring, the enthusiasm of the young men out to tame them, the spilt blood as man meets bull, the honour and lives at stake, the egging on by spectators… perhaps only foreign tourists are missing! | [

The NFL fined New England Patriots wide receiver Danny Amendola for a big block he unleashed on Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Jamell Fleming on a punt play in the second quarter of Patriots' Divisional Round victory. The Patriots receiver told Mike Reiss of ESPN that he received notice of the fine this week and that he plans to appeal. The amount of Amendola's fine was not reported, though the standard fine for a hit on a defenseless player is $23,152.
Amendola was flagged for unnecessary roughness, but the penalty only cost the Patriots two yards because the hit occurred on the four-yard line. The penalty of the foul was half the distance of the goal.
According to the NFL bylaws, unnecessary roughness can be called when a player launches himself into an opponent who "should not have reasonably anticipated such contact by an opponent, before or after the ball is dead." The penalty can also be called when a player uses his helmet or face mask to "butt, spear, or ram an opponent violently or unnecessarily."
It appears as if Amendola led with his shoulder, so it's fair to surmise the referees flagged for unnecessary roughness because they didn't think Fleming was expecting to be hit. It's worth mentioning, though, the NFL doesn't categorize players on the kicking team as defenseless.
After the game, Fleming said Amendola's vicious block was calculated. "Of course he knows he stuck me and everything," Fleming said, via the Boston Globe. "And the crowd knows it, but there’s nothing I can do about it. We have one of the best pooch-area punt teams, of course, and I find the ball very good. Of course that was calculated. That wasn’t no fluke play. Everybody knows that, your own fans know that. So that’s how you know it’s bad."
If Vontaze Burfict got suspended for 3 games for a shoulder. What yall think this weak dude should get? https://t.co/8GAwUtlQtg— JamellFleming (@JamellFleming) January 17, 2016
Amendola, meanwhile, is adamant it was a clean hit. Bill Belichick defended Amendola after the game as well.
"Saw him trying to block the guy trying to down the ball" Belichick said, via WEEI.com. "It’s hard to tell from the coaching film where the hit occurred. It was a legal play. We’re allowed to block him. [Amendola] didn’t give a fair catch signal so he’s allowed to block."
Last week, the NFL suspended Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict three games for a vicious helmet-to-helmet hit he unleashed on Pittsburgh Steelers wideout Antonio Brown. Burfict was likely suspended instead of fined because he's a repeat offender, racking up the most unnecessary roughness penalties in the league since 2012.
Amendola says he'll appeal any fine the league hands down on him. Let's see if he's a man of his word. | [

Egypt's President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi attended on Wednesday the inauguration of production at the West Nile Delta (WND) Project, the largest gas field in the Mediterranean Sea.
The project is expected to cover one quarter of Egypt's gas needs upon the completion of all phases. Gas extraction from the West Delta fields is being carried out in cooperation with British Petroleum (BP) and Germany's DEA group.
The project involves the development of gas and condensate fields located within West Mediterranean Deepwater concessions approximately 75 kilometres off the coast of Alexandria.
The president, who gave the first signal via video conference to start production at the field, expressed appreciation for the Egyptian people and everyone who worked to accomplish the first phase of the giant project before its scheduled deadline.
El-Sisi also urged participant companies in the project to accomplish the second phase in 2018. The CEOs of BP and DEA said they were honoured to participate in the project, describing it as a turning point in Egypt's history of gas production.
In March 2015, the two European companies inked the final agreement of the project with the Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum, General Petroleum Corporation and the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company, investing $12 billion for the first phase. The project is planned to develop 5 trillion cubic feet (tcf) of gas and 55 million barrels (mmbbl) of condensate reserves in its first phase.
Peak production is expected to reach 1.2 billion cubic feet a day (bcf/d) of gas, which is equivalent to approximately 25% of Egypt's current gas production. | [

Work will start next week on demolishing The Rocket pub in Coventry.
The once popular sports boozer will be flattened as part of the next phase of regeneration work around Coventry railway station.
Demolition is due to start in the week starting Monday June 29 and will last for approximately eleven weeks.
Once completed, the site will be occupied by contractors who will be using the area as a working and storage site whilst building a new access tunnel beneath Warwick Road.
A new widened pedestrian tunnel will be installed to provide clearer access between the station and Central Six retail Park. During both the demolition and the build of the tunnel, there will also be some slight changes to pedestrian routes, to enable safe working practices.
Cllr Rachel Lancaster, Cabinet Member for Public Services said: “With the successful application for further external grant funding, we are now able to install the new pedestrian tunnel beneath Warwick Road which will provide both an increased and safer access route between the station and city centre to the retail park, replacing the older darker subways which have recently been closed and filled in.
“This will begin another exciting phase of work on the ongoing regeneration of this area of the city, on top of the recently opened new bridge deck and the continuing demolition work taking place on the Friargate project.
''With the amount of work that has taken place around Junction 6 of the ring road and the station with the build of the new bridge deck and the demolition of Copthall House, the whole area is now almost unrecognisable from how it looked just over 18 months ago.
“This next phase will enable us to continue the ongoing regeneration and improvements we are making both here and across Coventry, giving residents a city they can be proud of and visitors a warm and inviting welcome, with the hope they will return again and again”
While the demolition is taking place, the site will be fully enclosed and a daily cleaning regime will be implemented by the contractor to minimise dust and working hours will be between 8am and 6pm Monday to Friday to try to keep any disruption to a minimum. | [

What is a presentation about? Shortened, you could say that you first want to attract the attention of the audience. After that, it’s all about creating a deeper interest in your presentation topicthat triggers an emotion in your viewers. Ideally, this will then lead to an action you want. This scheme is old hat, so to speak, but still works great today. We know this setup from elevator positioning, the elevator pitch.
Are you ready for a little test?
Please try to summarize in a few sentences what your next presentation will be about. What is the Core of your messages and what do you want viewers to take away? Can you sum it up succinctly?
You need to know yourself exactly what your presentation is about.
If you floundered during this little exercise, it’s a sign that you need to get the gist of your presentation more accurately. If you can’t name the key messages, it will be hard for you to clearly structure your presentation and the individual slides.
HEBEN SIE IHRE PRÄSENTATION AUFS NÄCHSTE LEVEL!
The Elevator Pitch is a helpful way to get to the heart of your presentation topics.
The Elevator Pitch originated in the USA. The goal behind it was, enable a sales representative to convince customers or decision-makers of his or her value proposition for the duration of an elevator ride. Since even in skyscrapers the time in the elevator is usually no more than 60 seconds, all important information had to be conveyed briefly and comprehensibly in this time span. Salespeople were trained to get to the point. This was so successful that the principle of the Elevator Pitch is now used worldwide. You can use the structure and principles of this technique to prepare your presentation. This will give you the clarity you need at the very beginning of your PowerPoint presentation preparations to give your slides and your dramaturgy a convincing structure.
The structure of an elevator pitch and how to use the structure for your presentation
What do you want to say to your audience, in what way, and with what desired effect? You should know this before you design the first slide. Use the individual steps of the Elevator Pitch to prepare.
The elevator positioning or elevator pitch is divided into four steps:
Step 1: Create attention
Why should your audience listen to you? What do you want to offer? When you start your presentation, you should arouse your audience’s curiosity about what is about to come. This has to be really good, otherwise you’ll only have half the attention right from the start. What could you announce? A world first? A completely new way of looking at a subject? What do you want to use to generate interest?
Step 2: Arouse interest
What hard facts and information can you offer? What do you use to support the expectations you created in step 1? Work out the important key messages that are essential to get across.
Step 3: Trigger emotions
Hard facts are important, but only half the battle. You need to get to the feelings of your audience. What feelings would be desirable for your presentation goal? Joy? Fear? Outrage? Greed?
Step 4: Call To Action
You should always include a call to action at the end of your presentation. After all, you don’t just want your audience to be passively sprinkled by you. The audience should be prompted to take an action that is in your best interest. This can start with little things, like signing up for your newsletter. It could also be buying a product or signing up for training. It’s important that you don’t leave it up to the audience to make the right moves. They should already call for action.
If you are good at summing up your goal and approach to preparing your PowerPoint presentation, you will also know exactly what information needs to go on your slides and what is unnecessary. In the early stages of planning, be really goal-oriented and be specific about what you want to achieve and how you want to achieve it. | [

Bridging Vehicles and Infrastructure with Car2X-Communication at ATTC Information Event
At April, 24th an exclusive information event of the ATTC (Austrian Traffic Telematics Cluster) about the introduction of Car2X-communication technologies in 2019 took place at the ÖAMTC center for driving techniques. The event was organized by ANDATA in close cooperation with Volkswagen, ASFINAG, Swarco Futurit, Automotive Safety Technologies, ÖAMTC and the project Connecting Austria.
It had been shown how the series solution for the upcoming product launches of Car2X-communication in 2019 will look like. The functions had been demonstrated live upon the examples of warnings for construction site trailers, breakdown cars, and emergency service vehicles. In addition the functions were shown in virtual reality and vehicles for the development of such connected, cooperative functions from ANDATA and ASTech accompanied the presentations and discussions with the attendant experts.
After the reduction of crash consequences (by structural vehicle measures, airbags, etc.) and the collision avoidance and mitigation (by autonomous emergency braking and collision warning, etc.) now the next level in automotive safety on the way to Vision Zero is launched. Namely Car2X-communication will be used for the active avoidance of dangerous situations.
The implementation of Car2X-communication delivers an essential technology component for future's cooperative, connected, (semi-)automated driving, which is promoted amongst others in the Austrian lead project Connecting Austria. This aims to put into effect common improvements in traffic and vehicle efficiency as well as in safety.
The contribution of ANDATA in the field is the integral development and safeguarding of the various functions and disciplines by the according control algorithms for (semi-)automated driving, reaching from sensor fusion and classification, localization, situation interpretation over manoeuvre planning to the predictive control of certain actions.

We specialize in therapy for the following:
Depression and Anxiety
Grief and Loss
Panic attacks and Phobias
Parenting and Family Issues
Work and Career Issues
This list is not exhaustive so please contact us to discuss your individual situation.
We specialise in Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), MIndfulness, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
Human living involves experiencing a variety of situations, events, and emotions. Painful events such as loss, fear, and upset, occur. We can struggle against these difficulties, and try and use our ability to think and reason (which is very useful for some areas of life) to overcome them. We can try and get rid of them by trying to avoid the event that triggered them and remove the associated thoughts and emotions that we view as being negative. However,
"When it becomes important that we do not think or feel a certain way, and we nevertheless find ourselves thinking or feeling that way, our minds can become consumed with efforts to eliminate these experiences. However, in the focused effort to eliminate these experiences, we tend to actually propagate and grow the very demons we wish to destroy" (p. 2 Luoma et al, 2007).
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, known as ‘ACT’ (pronounced as the word ‘act’) is a mindfulness based cognitive behavioural therapy that has a major emphasis on values, forgiveness, acceptance, compassion, living in the present moment, and accessing a transcendent sense of self. These skills are taught and practised in therapy to help clients create and live a rich and meaningful life guided by their values, while accepting the pain that inevitably goes with it. Barriers to valued living such as unwanted and difficult internal experiences (thoughts, images, sensations, memories) are identified and mindfulness skills taught as an effective way of coping with these and help us to change our relationship with them, thus reducing their impact and influence over our life.
ACT has proven effective with a variety of problems including pain, addictions, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, anxiety and stress.
CBT is a talking therapy which can help people who are experiencing a variety of mental health difficulties. It is based on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviour - specifically that what a person thinks can affect how they feel and behave. A person can feel stuck in a 'vicious cycle' of patterns of unhelpful thinking and behaviour which can prolong distress. CBT practitioners can help a person to identify these patterns and learn specific psychological and practical skills that enable the client to address their problems. The approach is empowering which is why it is sometimes referred to as 'teaching the client to become their own therapist'.
Mindfulness can be defined as a state of awareness that involves consciously and purposefully focusing one's attention on what is being experienced moment by moment. This state is developed through regular mindfulness meditation practice. We can learn to cultivate awareness of, and freedom from, the thoughts and feelings that arise in our experience (some of which stem from our automatic, habitual, and unconscious, patterns of thinking). This awareness can help us to recognise that the nature of our minds is to experience a flow of thoughts, and learn that we are not our thoughts. Mindful attention includes a stance of acceptance, non judgement, compassion, and openheartedness toward the present moment experience, regardless of how aversive or pleasant it may be.
Mindfulness based cognitive behavioural therapies integrate mindfulness with some of the principles and techniques of CBT. These include mindfulness-based stress reduction (MSBR, Kabat-Zinn, 1982; 1990), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT, Seagal, Williams, & Teasdale, 2002), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT, Linehan, 1993), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT, Hayes, Strosahl, & Wilson, 1999).
There is an extensive research base that demonstrates the effectiveness and efficacy of CBT and Mindfulness Based CBT therapies for a range of problems including; anxiety disorders, depression, post traumatic stress disorder, anger, obsessive compulsive disorder. As such, the UK National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommend using CBT and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (see www.nice.org.uk) | [

For a first order reaction if the time for 50%, 75% and 87.5% changes are t1, t2 and t3 respectively then what would be the value of t1: t2: t3?
Recall, for a first order elementary reaction,
Without more data, I couldn't give you a real value, but I could give you one as a factor of
We can conceptually assume that
Consider a first-order reaction
The time required for the initial concentration
#1/2["A"]_0#is one half-life #1/4["A"]_0#is two half-lives #1/8["A"]_0#is three half-lives
The ratios are
Here is a typical plot for a first-order reaction.
The initial concentration is 1.7.
- 400 s for the concentration to drop by 50 % (to 0.85)
- 800 s for the concentration to drop by 75 % (0.42)
- 400 s for the concentration to drop by 87.5 % (to 0.21)

Let LGUs and Business Help in Vaccine Drive
Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez III was quoted last week as saying that “aside from our health-care workers, we will prioritize vaccinating our economic front-line workforce.” Sec. Dominguez, who heads President Rodrigo Duterte’s economic team, also reported that they are fast-tracking the rollout of the country’s vaccination program noting that “the doses we are acquiring are more than enough to inoculate 100 percent of the country’s adult population (70 million people out of our total population of 110 million people).”
There are important things that we can glean from the statement of the hardworking secretary of finance. One is that the vaccination of our economic frontliners, and the entire population in general, is critical to our economic recovery. I agree with the assessment of President Duterte’s economic team that we need to reopen a bigger chunk of the economy in order to arrest the slide we are experiencing due to a year-long lockdown that has crippled our economy, wiped out our past economic gains, and if we are not careful, bring us to “a debt crisis farther down the road.” This is the only way we can address the lack of food and jobs many of our countrymen are experiencing.
How do we fast-track our vaccine program thereby ensuring that our population is inoculated from the coronavirus? One practical step government can take is to encourage the participation of local government units and the private sector in the vaccination program. The LGUs have been playing a critical role in the fight against COVID-19. They have been in charge of implementing localized lockdowns once infections spread in certain areas of their jurisdictions. They have been drafting and implementing rules to enforce health protocols—some more zealously than others, in fact.
Let the local officials be assessed by the voting public in terms of their performance in addressing virus infections, in inoculating their population, and equally important, in terms of economic performance. This is a practical way to fast-track the rollout of the vaccine program.
Competition brings out the best in people. Let cities, municipalities, and even barangays compete who can vaccinate the most, who can prevent infections the most, and who can revive the economy better. That, in fact, should be the true test of governance. We are in a crisis so let us assess those seeking public office, or those seeking the consent of the governed, on the basis of how they can address this crisis.
The second thing is that we should encourage the private sector to participate in the vaccine program by removing bureaucratic red tape that will impede their ability to purchase the vaccines for their employees—the country’s economic frontliners. I have no doubt in my mind that the private sector will do an extremely good job of increasing the number of people inoculated.
Businesses have a lot of interest in protecting their employees from the virus because it will allow them to increase production, improve operations, and begin the rebuilding process. From the public’s end, this will increase our ability to stop the infections because these are the people who frequently interact with the consumers, with the public. A lot of big businesses are willing and have the ability to purchase the vaccines themselves and even donate to small and medium businesses to ensure that the vaccines are distributed across the board.
The government can benefit from the help of LGUs and the private sector in making sure that we protect our people from the virus. All that is needed is for government to make sure that we empower rather than impede these partners who can help our country finally turn the tide in our battle against this pandemic. | [

After delivering a once-in-a-lifetime performance in the summit clash of ICC Cricket World Cup 2019, England’s star all-rounder Ben Stokes is set to receive one of the highest honours for an English sportsperson – ‘a knighthood’. On Sunday, Stokes, under pressure produced one of the most memorable performances in the history of English sport to power the hosts to their maiden world title.
A day after being crowned as world champions, Stokes is set for another glory as he has emerged as the front-runner in the race to bag the elusive ‘knighthood’ title. Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt – the two contenders to be the next prime minister of the UK confirmed the news that they will more than happy to celebrate the allrounder’s achievement by conferring him a knighthood.
During a debate hosted by The Sun and talkRADIO, Johnson and Hunt – both in the race to replace Theresa May as Britain’s Prime Minister later this month – were asked if they would considering giving Stokes a knighthood.
Johnson replied first by saying: “I will give dukedoms, whatever – I will go to the maximum, to, what, the Garter King of Arms. Yes is the answer, absolutely”.
After him, Hunt said: “Of course”.
If he is knighted, Stokes would become the 12th English cricketer to receive the honour, the most recent being Alastair Cook this year.
Chasing 242 to win versus New Zealand at Lord’s, Stokes played a sensational knock of unbeaten 84 during England’s innings. His partnership alongside Jos Buttler was the cornerstone to the revival of the home side. And when the game dramatically went to an unprecedented Super Over, Stokes stepped up once again.
He and Buttler hit 15 off of Trent Boult’s six balls, with New Zealand only able to level the score and handing England their maiden World Cup win due to scoring less boundaries. | [

Mumbai: Prakash Jha, filmmaker-producer has taken a dig at some renowned Bollywood actors for endorsing pan masala brands. He said that they don’t have a particular reason to care about the content of their films as they have Rs 50 crores in their bank accounts after endorsing a pan masala brand. “What are these legendary actors doing?” he questioned.
In an interview with ETimes, Prakash said, “There are five or six actors who will never work in one of my films because they are busy minting money from guthka ads.”
He said that the ads done by the popular actors have a real impact on the public. He narrated a story about a school principal who had asked him, “What are you guys doing in the Mumbai film industry?” According to the principle, because of the big hoardings of stars endorsing pan masala brands, the children in the area had developed bad habits.
Talking about the declining quality of recent Bollywood films, Jha said, “A star will not bother about the content when he knows that he has already made Rs 400 crore after signing on to four films.”
Although, he further stated, “Anyway, an actor is not a content producer. It’s the writer and director. If that writer and director take time then they can create something good.”
When asked about the boycott trends, the director said that when you have a good story to tell, there is no need to be bothered about any trends. “You can’t make real films in the corporate world of films and TV. Sirf bakwaas banta hai.” He highlighted that when an actor makes three films a year, there is no time to work on the story, and said, “They get the rights to remakes. Nowadays they bring the director as well along with the remake rights,” he added.
Recently, Akshay Kumar, Shah Rukh Khan, and Ajay Devgn were trolled for their appearance in an advertisement for a pan masala brand. The internet dug out an old video of Akshay saying how he will never do a guthka ad. The actor subsequently apologized to his fans, and said, “I would like to apologise to you, all my fans and well-wishers. Your reaction over the past few days has deeply affected me. While I have not and will not endorse tobacco, I respect the outpouring of your feelings in light of my association with Vimal Elaichi. With all humility, I step back.” | [

For centuries the world has been Mateo’s prison, holding him hostage with immortality.
Danger only entices his body to shapeshift. He fearlessly walks on the thin line between life and death, challenging his abilities to keep him alive as he stalks his own demise. Each day haunts him with memories of a past he can’t escape. Each breath holds a future where he is the only survivor. Violent weather epidemics wreck havoc in his vicinity every time hate, agony, and rage slips through the cracks of his soul. The unexplainable connection is perilous for the innocent lives surrounding him as death pursues them. He scours the world to find someone strong enough to finally put him six feet under. Will he finally take his spot in the ground? Or will he take another’s life and watch as death escapes again. | [

NEWPORT — Research scientists recently had the first confirmed sighting of a True’s beaked whale that was combined with a verified recording of the whale’s sounds.
“The whales are very far offshore and can spend one to three hours below the surface without coming up,” said Debra Palka, a research biologist with the Northeast Fisheries Science Center in Woods Hole, Mass. “The whales are not seen very often.”
Palka was among a team of scientists that just completed a 54-day trip at sea aboard the 209-foot National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration research vessel Henry B. Bigelow, which was welcomed back home Friday at a ceremony that featured U.S. Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I.; Rear Adm. Anita Lopez, deputy director for operations in NOAA’s Office of Marine and Aviation Operations; and Lt. Cmdr. Jeffrey Taylor, Bigelow’s commanding officer, as the speakers.
Reed announced in April that Bigelow’s new home port would be Newport, moving here permanently from Woods Hole. He lobbied for several years to have the ship here because the waterfront at Naval Station Newport is an integral part of operations for both NOAA and Coast Guard vessels, he said.
Reed praised the partnership between NOAA, the Coast Guard and the Navy.
“They are working together so the advanced science technology of this ship can be harnessed for the benefit of commerce, scientific studies, data collection and management of fisheries,” he said.
Reed told the invited guests that he would like to bring additional NOAA ships to Newport, and is working on the federal fiscal 2017 budget to possibly make that happen.
Lopez talked about the ship’s mission and asked participants of the trip to explain some of what took place. Taylor and his crew members afterwards took small groups on a tour of the ship.
“We were collecting visual sightings of whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals, turtles, sea birds and larger fish that come to the surface, like tuna,” Palka said about the recent journey.
To collect the sounds of whales and other marine animals, the ship dragged a 300-meter-long cable with a hydrophone at one end that connects to a computer.
The ship’s survey area for the mission was in the North Atlantic from Georges Bank east to about 250 miles offshore, from the Canadian waters south to the latitude of Delaware Bay.
“We covered more than 16,000 nautical miles,” Taylor said. “We had university scientists, representatives from National Marine Fisheries, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, and others with us. This was a big inter-agency trip.”
The ship’s next mission will be an autumn bottom trawl survey that begins the day after Labor Day and will mean 70 days at sea, bringing up ground fish such as flounder, fluke, cod, halibut, haddock and other species for study. Besides the 16 crew members, there will be 17 scientists on the voyage.
“A lot of our crew used to be commercial fishermen,” Taylor said. “They want to do the best work possible and gather the best data for setting catch limits. It comes down to the livelihood of the people they once worked with.”
Chief Boatswain Adrian Martyn-Fisher is one of the former commercial fisherman on the Bigelow’s crew. They trawl for fish down to a depth of about 400 feet, using modern equipment and nets that can be operated from the ship’s bridge. They bring the catch up to the ship’s large “wet lab,” where the fish are sorted by species, weighed and measured.
Scientific samples of the marine life are put in the lab’s large freezers, and about 8,000 samples are gathered on such a trip. The scientists work 12 hours a day and then have 12 hours off in staggered shifts so it’s an around-the-clock operation.
“It’s amazing to see how much work they do,” Taylor said.
All the data is computerized and a comprehensive report of the mission is ready in two months. The purpose of such missions is to keep the fisheries sustainable, he said.
The ship has an acoustics laboratory that uses five different frequencies of sonar to help get an accurate count of fish populations. The scientist identify fish species from the sound signature of the fish.
“The idea is to get to a point in this technology where we can do an abundance survey without sacrificing any animals,” Taylor said.
This is more likely to happen with herring, menhaden and other fish that travel in schools, he said.
The Henry B. Bigelow replaced the NOAA ship Albatross IV, which conducted fisheries research cruises in the Northeast from 1962 until its decommissioning in the fall of 2008. When he | [

Impact of urban growth-driven landuse change on microclimate and extreme precipitation — A sensitivity study

More than half of the humanity lives in cities and many cities are growing in size at a phenomenal rate. Urbanisation-driven landuse change influences the local hydrometeorological processes, changes the urban micro-climate and sometimes affects the precipitation significantly. Understanding the feedback of urbanisation driven micro-climatic changes on the rainfall process is a timely challenge. In this study we attempt to investigate the impact of urban growth driven landuse change on the changes in the extreme rainfall in and around cities, by means of sensitivity studies. We conduct three sets of controlled numerical experiments using a mesoscale atmospheric model coupled with a land surface model to investigate the hypothesis that the increasing urbanisation causes a significant increase of extreme rainfall values. First we conduct an ensemble of purely idealised simulations where we show that there is a significant increase of high intensity rainfall with the increase of urban landuse. Then four selected extreme rainfall events of different tropical cities were simulated with first current level of urbanisation and then (ideally) expanded urban areas. Three out of the four cases show a significant increase of local extreme rainfall when the urban area is increased. Finally, we conducted a focused study on the city of Mumbai, India: A landscape dynamics model Dinamica-EGO was used to develop a future urban growth scenario based on past trends. The predicted future landuse changes, with current landuse as control, were used as an input to the atmospheric model. The model was integrated for four historical cases which showed that, had these events occurred with the future landuse, the extreme rainfall outcome would have been significantly more severe. An analysis of extreme rainfall showed that hourly 10-year and 50-year rainfall would increase in frequency to 3-year and 22-year respectively.

Do you know that ice cubes do wonders for your skin? Read further to know the best use of ice cubes during monsoon.
Using ice cubes is one of the easiest and quickest ways to work wonders on your skin. You can make the most of this beauty procedure by using some mashed vegetables or fruits with water and freezing them. This works as a skin miracle especially during the humid monsoon season.
We share with you the best uses of ice cubes on your skin, as suggested by Make-up Expert Aashmeen Munjaal.
- Open skin pores and tanning is a common problem faced by many of us. Blend a potato, cucumber and tomato and make a paste of it by adding water. Freeze the paste on an ice tray to make ice cubes. Now rub these cubes on your skin for wonders. Make sure the water you use is drinking water or RO purified and not hard, or it may result in skin breakouts and patches.
- Rub ice cubes all over your face, leave it for 20 minutes and then rinse. Doing it twice daily will work as a cleanser and toner. Dry skin? You can add a paste of 2-3 almonds to the water. Almonds work like a boon on your skin.
- Those with oily skin can add some lime juice to water and freeze. Lime will keep your skin odour-free and well-nourished. You can also rub the cubes on your underarms to control the excessive sweat and odour.
- Patchy skin? Sunburn? Add aloe vera juice to water and freeze to make ice cubes. This will nourish your skin and also act like a medicinal cure. For more benefits, add jasmine or neem oil that work excellent on your skin. Rub the cubes all over your skin, neck, knuckles, and elbows and leave for 15-20 minutes. It will help remove the tan on hour skin.
- For puffy eyes, ice cubes work like magic. Prepare an ice cube pack with milk and green tea. Store the mixture tea in an ice tray and apply it whenever needed. Later on, pat your skin dry with a clean towel.
- Ice cubes also work on acne pores. These also help in the resultant redness and swelling caused by acne. Before applying ice, make sure you rinse and dry your face clean. You need to keep applying this ice cube mix at regular intervals for added benefits.
- Waxing is one of the best ways to get rid of unwanted hair from the face and body. However, it is important to take care of your skin when you wax, especially if your skin is sensitive. Using ice cubes is a brilliant way to pamper your skin. Rub them on the waxed area to get relief from the discomfort and redness caused after waxing.
- Want to make your foundation last longer during the hot, humid season? Very simple. After cleansing your skin, apply astringent toner on your face with the help of cotton. Post that, wrap an ice cube in a clean, cotton cloth and gently apply it on your face for a few seconds. You’ll notice that your foundation remains for longer than usual. | [

About future of bitcoin.
If anyone thinks of being a very risky'stock' or'share' of Bitcoin, which today can make Amir a fakir tomorrow, in which almost everything is tax evasion and fraud, then he can not be blamed at all.
Since such a thing is happening, again the news is being made and people are spreading in the face. The risk is not wrong, Amir / Fakir's prediction is also correct. Those who are part of the bits of coins, they are also saying. But none of these is 'Bitcoin', that's what's going on with bit coins.
Bit coins are one of the most inventive, 'block chains' technology, the first 'cryptocurrency' based on them. Bitcoin is a secure software. Experts agree that the 'block chain' technology at the root of the bits of coins is revolutionary, very reliable. Banks, financial institutions, should also use 'block chains' technology.
Recently, suddenly all of his incredible price blast took place. Nobody can take a walk on this. The Chicago Exchanges have been allowed to sell futures for bitter coins.
Many renowned institutions including Marily Lynch, Bank of America, say this is not 'bubbub'. There is reason behind this increase in prices. Because there is a reason, because there is too much depth.
As much as economic, its equivalent or more technical and scientific. This 'crypto coin' has the power to change society and the economy. Already 'block-chain' has been adopted as a new potential technology. There is a lot of research and concrete discussions on which to contribute in some areas.
Crypto-currency discovery efforts have long been running. It is possible to discover such a coin from 'cryptography' (cryptography), researchers know that in the eighties.
But some of the problems they failed to solve. In two or eight eight years, an unknown researcher resolved all those problems and sent a research paper to the Internet forum.
Wonderfully his solution is useful. His name is "Block-chain" Based on the block-chain, the first 'crypto-coin' is invented, whose name is Bitakayne. Due to its sky-high prices, and due to high frequency, most of the people in this present time are considered as assets without thinking of money.
Then many more crypto-coins have been invented, such as Etherium, Ripol, Light Coins etc. But Bitcoin was the first crypto currency, and many researchers were ahead of others because of attracting investors' attention. But another crypto-coin can suddenly bitcoin completely bankrupt by stepping up, that is a big risk factor for investing.
No one can say who will go forward. Now there are some hundred crypt-coins in the market again, and of course there will be many more new currencies imported. So, making sure about investing is not easy. Many people ask, what is this currency look like? There is no real existance of this currency.
It's a computer software. In many of the pictures, the gold barges in the English B character to be written, even Souvenir can be found. That's not a bitcoin. | [

Spectroscopic Confirmation of M31N 2015-10a
ATel #8141; S. C. Williams (LJMU), M. J. Darnley (LJMU)
on 8 Oct 2015; 09:08 UT
Credential Certification: Matt Darnley ([email protected])
Subjects: Optical, Nova, Transient
We obtained a spectrum of the luminous nova candidate M31N 2015-10a (PNV J00415937+4117026; see CBAT TOCP and ATel #8134) with the SPRAT spectrograph on the 2m Liverpool Telescope (Steele et al. 2004) on 2015 October 7.9 UT.
The spectrum shows strong Balmer emission, with the FWHM of the Hα estimated at ~ 2,700 km/s. Numerous Fe II lines are also detected in emission (e.g. 4629, 4924, 5018, 5169 and 5317 Å), along with O I features (7477 and 7773 Å).
This spectrum confirms M31N 2015-10a is a luminous classical nova in M31. The emission lines suggest this is a member of the Fe II spectroscopic class, although the Hα emission is broader than that of a standard Fe II nova, implying it may be an Fe IIb nova. Fe IIb or `hybrid' novae sometimes develop He/N type spectra later in the eruption (Williams 1992), therefore continued spectroscopic follow-up of this luminous nova is encouraged. | [

Great option for serious rigidity
The Truvativ Descendant DH 35 bar is part of a fleet of bigger bore models in both carbon and alloy, with plenty pro rider signature geometries and widths.
SRAM’s Truvativ gravity wing took longer than most to release a 35mm handlebar, insisting for years the standard 31.8mm diameter bar was both stiff and strong enough. Pressure to meet the growing number of 35mm stems kicking around and momentum behind oversized bars presumably led them to finally manufacture options for 2018.
The Descendant DH model is 800mm across with almost identical numbers to the Chromag Fubar OSX 35, except 1-degree more backsweep. SRAM don’t specify the exact type of aluminium, so it’s unclear whether it’s the same blend as the more expensive, exactly-the-same-shape, CoLab bar listed as 7050 alloy, but the exterior finish looks a little more grainy and coarse to the naked eye.
Steering is super-precise, and, leaning hard, the bar really drives the bike from side to side. There’s minimal defection (even at the end of an uncut 800mm bar) hitting the hardest turns or blasting the roughest sections. The 31.8mm Descendant CoLab bar is a personal favourite, but this thicker model feels not necessarily stiffer, but somehow harder, and delivers marginally more feedback and buzz from the trails. This makes it just the wrong side of positive and solid for me, and I’m a pretty chunky and strong 82kg unit.
That said, the Descendant bar is far from the most brutal 35mm option around, and if you’re a really big rider wanting serious rigidity might be great option, but I prefer a slightly more damped feel. | [

Release of Washington Referendum 71 Initiative Signatures Stayed Pending Appeal
Until the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals hears the dispute over Referendum 71, an effort to overturn a bill granting state registered domestic partners all rights, responsibilities and obligations granted or imposed by state law on married couples, state election officials cannot release the signatures and addresses of the people who signed 11 statewide initiatives ruled Thurston County Superior Court Judge Richard Hicks.
The Olympian reports: "Hicks said there is a clear conflict between the state Supreme Court's likely interpretation of state public-records law and what U.S. District Court Judge Benjamin Settle ruled last month in the dispute over releasing names and signatures of voters who signed Referendum 71."

CONGRESSWOMAN ELISE STEFANIK
On Saturday, September 28, 2013 the House will consider H.R. 2848, the Department of State Operations and Embassy Security Authorization Act, Fiscal Year 2014,under a suspension of the rules. The bill was introduced on July 30, 2013 by Rep. Ed Royce (R-CA) and referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, which ordered the bill reported by unanimous consent.
H.R. 2848 authorizes overall reduced appropriations for the Department of State at fiscally responsible levels, while fully funding critical embassy security enhancements. Included in this authorization and in concert with both the House and Senate Appropriations Committees, is $2.65 billion for embassy security, which includes $1.383 billion in capital cost sharing for new embassy facilities where current facilities do not meet security standards, and $101 million for embassy security upgrades.
This bill prioritizes the improvement of U.S. facilities in high risk areas and requires the State Department to designate “high risk, high threat” posts for purposes of enhanced contingency planning and training. The State Department will be required to ensure that these posts have sufficient funding, in line with the post-Benghazi Accountability Review Board (ARB) recommendations.
This legislation also requires the State Department to conduct a review of the Bureau of Diplomatic Security to ensure that it is meeting the security needs of overseas facilities, and allows the State Department to award contracts based upon value over cost. Moreover, it authorizes funding for an additional 156 Marine Corps Security Guards (MSG) and the construction of 26 new Marine-operated access points at high-risk posts.
Finally, the bill allows the Secretary to suspend without pay Foreign Service Officers who are “credibly accused of a crime”, and caps the amount of locality pay that Foreign Service Officers are able to receive while stationed overseas.
The last State Department authorization was enacted in 2002. This bill will remedy that 11-year lapse, during which Departmental budgets have grown unsupervised, and reassert critical Congressional oversight leverage. H.R. 2848 authorizes funding levels approximately 9% ($1.4 billion) below the levels appropriated in FY 2012 and 2013. This includes an approximate 22% cut ($2.4 billion) for Diplomatic and Consular Programs. This legislation was drafted as a result of numerous Committee oversight hearings.
The CBO estimates this legislation would “have discretionary costs of $14.6 billion over the 2014-2018 period, assuming the appropriation of the specified and estimated amounts.”

When it comes to food and drink, such as meats, cheeses, wine, and whiskey, we’ve all experienced the wonders that the aged or vintage option has to offer. I’ve always been drawn to the vintage section of the liquor or foods store, where the world’s finest wines and cured meats are displayed. These aged items often have a wonderful story behind them, it’s like bringing a bit of history home to enjoy.
As familiar as I am to the world of vintages in food and drink, I’ve not yet experienced aged coffee and that’s why I’m so pleased to share that for the first time Nespresso has released SELECTION VINTAGE 2014, a limited edition collection Arabica coffee that was harvested three years ago. Due to the aging process, this coffee exhibits a complex taste with tinges of woodiness, fruity notes, and an incredibly decadent velvety texture.
How would you pair this rare breed of aged coffee to expose its most distinctive taste you ask?
Read more to find out!
The advice of my fellow Nespresso coffee connoisseurs is that SELECTION VINTAGE 2014, currently available for OriginalLine and coming soon for VertuoLine should be enjoyed black. I decided to combine my love for aged meats and cheese and paired this special release with a perfectly curated charcuterie board.
The mix of saltiness from the cured meats and cheeses, together with the slight tartness from an assorted selection of antipasto such as olives, mushrooms, sundried tomatoes and the added sweetness of fresh cherries, paired exceptionally well with the dark intensity (level 7) and woodiness that SELECTION VINTAGE 2014 is best known for.
Preparing a charcuterie board is like a work of art. Selecting the meats, cheeses, crackers is definitely an important task, however the assembly process is certainly my favourite. There is so much creative liberty when it comes to this crowd pleaser, and adding a SELECTION VINTAGE 2014 will sure be an element of surprise.
Swapping out a glass of wine with a cup of hot, intense, aged Nespresso coffee was a fantastic way to enjoy a weekend afternoon while catching up with friends.

Phoma blight in plants is particularly damaging to a number of crops and ornamentals, especially to vinca groundcover. There are some preventative measures you can take in the garden and things you can do if you already see the infection. These may help save your plantings.
What is Phoma Blight?
Phoma blight disease is a fungal infection caused by various Phoma species. Infections by this fungus are most common in wet and cool conditions. It survives in soil and in the old plant debris that is under your plantings. The signs of a phoma infection include wilting, browning, and death of runners and entire plants. If it is phoma blight, you’ll also see dark brown to black lesions that girdle the stems. The lesions usually appear close to the soil line. Leaves will have dark colored spots as well. Phoma blight spreads rapidly, and any health part of a plant that is touching infected soil is at risk of succumbing. Plants that are most likely to be infected are those with wounds or that are stressed by growing conditions, such as overwatering or nutrient-poor soil.
How to Stop Phoma Blight
Stopping the spread of the fungal disease is difficult. It tends to spread rapidly through beds, and it also persists for a long time because the fungi survive well in the soil and debris under the plants. Preventative steps are important and include avoiding overhead watering and ensuring air flow in the bed. Remove overhanging plants that restrict air movement and thin plants whenever necessary. It is also important to remove debris from under the plants, although this is difficult to do. Pull out any diseased or dead plant material underneath healthy plants to prevent further spread of the disease. Treating phoma blight with fungicides may have mixed results. Copper fungicides are generally recommended, but be sure to check with your local nursery to get the right chemical for use on specific plants like periwinkle. There may also be other fungicides that will help control the spread of the disease. If phoma blight does become a big issue in your beds, you may want to consider pulling out all of the plants and putting in alternative disease resistant ones.

Piezoelectric Thin Film Hydroacoustic Sensors for Acoustic and Turbulent Boundary Layer InvestigationsWednesday (07.06.2017) 20:30 - 20:33 Förde I Part of:
Piezoelectric materials have been used for decades in hydroacoustic sensors, mostly as cut bulk sensors or in cylindrical or spherical form made of PZT. Water flow around the sensors causes turbulences in the boundary layer and leads to hydrodynamic pressure variations. Using single sensors these pressure variations cannot be distinguished from acoustic signals and are therefore a noise source of major concern in measurements, especially in the low frequency range which is of interest in the field of underwater noise monitoring.
In this work, piezoelectric thin films sensors are used for measurements of the turbulent boundary layer as well as acoustic signals. Separation of these components is achieved by a time-dependent data analysis of simultaneous recorded signals from multiple sensors, which have a flush-mounted design to minimize the influence on the turbulent boundary layer. The sensor array provides an improved spatial resolution compared to arrangements of traditional flush mounted hydrophones due to the size of the individual sensor elements. In spite of the sensor size a good sensitivity can be reached. To study the performance of the sensors, measurements of the turbulent boundary layer and acoustics have been conducted with an acoustic transducer under laboratory conditions and in salt water with free-field conditions.

Perambur is a neighbourhood located in the northern region of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.
In Tamil, pirambu (பிரம்பு) means bamboo, and ur (ஊர்) means city or place. Before British rule, this place was widely regarded as a place that was a bamboo forest, around the Huzur Gardens area, which currently houses the Simpsons Pvt. Ltd. This area was annexed to Chennai in 1742 CE.
Perambur is located at an altitude of 10 m above mean sea level.
Some of the major connecting roads and streets include: Paper Mills Road, Perambur High Road, Madhavaram High Road, Paddy Field Road, Patel Road, School Road, Bharathi Road, Siruvallur High Road, Raghava Street, B.B. Road, and Bunder Garden Street. Apart from these, Perambur also has a road named after Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scout Movement. The road is well known as BP Road.
This neighbourhood is well connected to all parts of Chennai by bus services operated by the Metropolitan Transport Corporation. Its proximity to the Chennai Central railway station makes it an important transport hub.
Perambur has a notable railway town in the Indian Railways landscape as it is home to the Vande Bharat Express, produced at the Integral Coach Factory located here and also the presence of Chennai Rail Museum, in addition to the railway station serving to decongest the Chennai Central station by serving as a major alighting point for long distance trains passing through or terminating in the city from the North-Western end. The Perambur railway station is considered as the oldest railway station in the city after Royapuram.
Perambur is one of the earliest British settlements in Chennai, mainly because of the railway establishments during the 1850s. Perambur is noted for having the largest presence of Anglo-Indians in Chennai (and arguably in South India) because of the erstwhile British settlements in and around Perambur, during the construction and operation of the Integral Coach Factory (ICF). The ICF is located only in Perambur, with an ancillary unit in Kolkata in India. ICF, Chennai is also home to Vande Bharat Express also known as Train 18, the indigenously produced trainset of the Indian Railways. Perambur also houses the Chennai Rail Museum which has a large collection of vintage coaches, engines and a railway coach themed restaurant. Perambur has two (Carriage Works and Loco Works) of the three railway workshops serving Indian Railways' Southern Railway Zone.
Perambur is served by three railway stations: Perambur railway station, Perambur Carriage Works railway station and Perambur Loco Works railway station. Perambur railway station is one of the major railway hubs in Chennai because of ICF and because express and superfast trains stop there. It is the fifth largest station in Chennai in passenger volume after Chennai Central, Chennai Egmore railway station, Tambaram and Mambalam.

FAVELA is a writer and singer who has managed to generate an array of melodic sounds, reaching keen listeners across the globe.
His music boasts layers of warm and impactful production, resulting in millions of Spotify streams and key tastemaker support from worldwide radio such as the UK’s BBC Radio 1.
To celebrate 8 Years Of T.H.E – Music Essentials, FAVELA shares 8 albums that have deeply inspired him.
From Frank Ocean’s “Blonde” to Gold Panda’s “Lucky Shiner”, these albums go a long way towards describing FAVELA as an artist, and his thought process!
1. Bon Iver – For Emma, Forever Ago
This is one of my all-time favourite albums, that I never seem to tire of. I love the messiness of the recording, Justin Vernon’s choice of falsetto, that fools the listener into forgetting that these songs are essentially pop songs or ballads. I love that the lyrics are difficult to hear, and once you look them up or finally make sense of them, they’re somewhat indecipherable. Skinny Love for instance – ‘Come on skinny love just last the year’ is enough of a beautiful sentiment to capture an emotion instantly. Yet there is so much emotion in Vernon’s voice, his melodies and chords. Lump Sum features a sort of four to the floor kick drum, which gives it a wonderfully subtle drive, alongside the acoustic guitar, and pushes the slow melodies along. It inspires me to make beautiful music, not to overthink my lyrics, and to think about how to veil my more pop-tinged melodies with different instrumentation.
2. Rosalía – El Mal Querer
I was absolutely blown away by this record when I first heard it and it has quickly become one of my favourite albums. The production by El Guincho on it is just incredible. He manages to blend Spanish traditions with pop and R&B music. Rosalía chooses very interesting melodies and inflections which are a breath of fresh air amidst all the other western music I hear. ‘Que No Salga La Luna’ is mind-blowing. I hear even Middle Eastern and Asian influences which dip in and out of more Western melodies, over the top of a very repetitive guitar loop. At one point her melody just shifts to the major key, and speaks to my inner music-nerd in wonderful ways! This album inspires me sonically, melodically and again encourages my production to stay creative and different.
3. Frank Ocean – Blonde
It almost goes without saying that this album is a modern classic. Frank Ocean as an artist in terms of his output and career interests me greatly, but this album particularly is a huge inspiration. It took me a while to really get into it, and I really like that. Some tracks I’ve had to grapple with and try and understand them, and I think that’s what great music should do. It should encourage you to keep coming back to it and think about what it’s saying and doing. ‘Nights’ is a particular favourite, especially how he establishes a certain hook or melody, then flips the track up on itself and moves into a completely different sound and section, but then returns to that original melody. I think it’s an album that will provide new discoveries and creative ideas for many years to come for me.
4. The National – High Violet
I couldn’t really choose a specific album by The National because they are all so inspirational to me. My live band and I always have jokes / discussions / arguments about this band because I feel that those who like them are basically die-hard fans, and those that aren’t don’t particularly understand their magnetic pull! This album introduced me to them. Firstly I love how they seem to fit in multiple choruses or hooks into a single song, which feels very counter-cultural, and secondly lyrically Matt Berninger is a genius. The lyrics are always so bleak and yet tongue-in-cheek, and always paint such a vivid picture. Take ‘Lemonworld’ for instance: ’Lay me on a table, put flowers in my mouth and we can say that we invented a summer-loving torture party.’ Need I say anymore?!
5. Corinne Bailey Rae – The Sea
I think Corinne Bailey Rae can be quite an overlooked artist, as this album is a real gem. It arose from a very difficult time in her life and the result is stunning. The emotion captured in each song is extremely tangible and the production is so perfectly understated. ‘I Would Like To Call It Beauty’ is a personal favourite – it sounds like a Van Morrison track and her vocal is laid so bare it lets the emotion hit hard. For me it’s a lesson in how to produce in order to support a | [

The Giants have continued their busy offseason with the signing of former Indians outfielder Austin Jackson.
The veteran free agent Austin Jackson signed a two-year $6 million contract and could earn an additional $2.5 million in escalators and bonuses.
In 2017, with the Cleveland Indians, Jackson hit a slash line of.318/.387/.482 with 7 home runs and 46 runs scored in just 280 at-bats. Jackson also had a.387 on-base percentage with 89 hits, 35 RBI, a 1.9 WAR, and a 126 OPS+ (100 is league average).
The 31-year-old veteran is a career.275 hitter with 62 homers, 349 RBIs, 111 steals, and 24.1 WAR in 999 career games.
This acquisition was somewhat surprising after the Giants seemed to be top competitors for Royals free agent centerfielder Lorenzo Cain, even after the McCutchen trade, but it is also sensible since the Giants reportedly do not want to go over the $197 million Luxury Tax threshold.
The San Francisco Giants have made a plethora of offseason acquisitions and trades, including former Pirates centerfielder Andrew McCutchen and former Rays third baseman Evan Longoria. After this acquisition, the 2018 Giants lineup, if the season were to start today, will look something like this…
- 2B Joe Panik
- RF Andrew McCutchen
- C Buster Posey
- 3B Evan Longoria
- 1B Brandon Belt
- LF Hunter Pence
- SS Brandon Crawford
- CF Austin Jackson
The Giants had a National League-worst 64-98 record with an atrocious.395 win-loss percentage in 2017, and the Giants front office is desperately striving to prove to the baseball world that their laughable 2017 season was nothing more than a fluke.
The reality of the matter is, whether you like it or not, the Giants have immensely improved their lineup from 2017, and while they have virtually no chance at catching their division rival Los Angeles Dodgers, they have a good shot at a Wild Card berth. Austin Jackson will give the Giants a solid bat and glove in the outfield and will bring a veteran presence to a team that is going to be competing for a playoff spot in the best division in baseball in 2018. | [

Expanded polystyrene, eco-friendly & economical building material
As the core of 3D panel, expanded polystyrene (EPS) is one of the most inexpensive materials having good mechanical and electrical insulation properties and a significant structural flexibility. The installation process is simple and requires no special tools or skilled labor.
As eco-friendly material, it is indispensable for thermal insulation of underground parts of buildings, foundations, walls, basement, floor. It is adaptable to all types of structures from affordable housing or upscale homes, motels, condominiums and warehouses as well as schools and strip malls, and low cost concrete privacy walls.
Construction of building from expanded polystyrene 3D panel with concrete blocks is strong, reliable, economical and comfortable. It has thermal insulation and high strength, excellent sound insulation and very good resists moisture.
Expanded polystyrene is widely used in:
- The repair and construction of roads and streets, runways, industrial areas as an insulating material. Effectively protects the base of roads from freezing and can withstand the load of heavy vehicles.
- For the repair and construction of railways, as well as for railway transport (cars, trains).
- To improve the coverage of the soil (used for strengthening, for example. Embankment slopes extreme foundations of bridges, thus achieving efficiency design).
- During the construction of refrigerating equipment (display cases, freezers, cars - refrigerators, coolers, containers for the transport of dry ice, warehouses).
- For refrigeration (refrigerated trucks, refrigerated vans).
- In the shipbuilding industry for the device floating jetties and pontoons.
- As a packaging material is quite possible extension of the scope expanded polystyrene as to further improve its insulating qualities, strength and deformability characteristics. | [

ISO 14403-2:2012 specifies methods for the determination of cyanide in various types of water (such as ground, drinking, surface, leachate, and waste water) with cyanide concentrations usually from 2 µg/l to 500 µg/l expressed as cyanide ions in the undiluted sample. The range of application can be changed by varying the operation conditions, e.g. by diluting the original sample or changing the pathlength of the flow cell.
In this method, a suitable mass concentration range from10 µg/l to 100 µg/l is described.
Seawater can be analysed with possible changes in sensitivity and adaptation of the reagent and calibration solutions to the salinity of the samples.

Fracking boom prompts $5B Dominion gas pipeline
Spurred by the nation's fracking boom, Dominion proposed Tuesday its largest natural gas pipeline — a nearly $5 billion project to move vast supplies produced in the mid-Atlantic to the Southeast.
Dominion and Duke Energy, along with two other partners, are seeking federal approval for a 550-mile pipeline — called the Atlantic Coast Pipeline — that would stretch from Harrison County, W.Va., through Virginia and North Carolina to Robeson County, near the South Carolina border.
"This will be one of the largest pipelines to take advantage of the abundant supply of natural gas in the Marcellus and Utica shale fields in West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania," says Dominion spokesman Jim Norvelle.
The combined use of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing or fracking, which can extract oil and gas from underground rock, are a major reason why these two shale formations now generate more than a quarter of the nation's natural gas.
"This new technology of getting natural gas out of the ground is a game changer," says Norvelle, noting manufacturers are using this energy to power factories. He says Duke Energy is looking to close a number of coal-fired power plants and use natural gas plants instead.
The fracking boom is prompting a flurry of pipeline projects that alter how natural gas flows nationwide. Last month, for example, the 1,700-mile Rockies Express requested federal permission to move gas westward from eastern Ohio instead of eastward from Colorado.
"There's a re-plumbing of the system to reflect a shift in supply and demand," says Donald Santa, president and CEO of the Interstate Natural Gas Association of America, an industry group. Previously, the Southeast got most of its gas from Louisiana, Texas and Oklahoma.
A Goldman Sachs report in June said that while 85% of the growth in U.S. natural gas production in the next four years will come from Appalachia, 60% of the growth in demand for it will come from the Gulf Coast. As a result, it expects $21 billion in pipeline investment to move natural gas from the Marcellus Shale, $16 billion of which will involve reversing the flow of existing infrastructure.
Santa says such investments are occurring, because natural gas is not only replacing coal in some areas but also reviving the petrochemical industry and raising prospects for U.S. liquefied natural gas exports. Among the more than a dozen pending projects, he says Dominion's is "significant," because it's a long, large-diameter new pipeline.
The Atlantic Coast Pipeline would be the first for Dominion, which already has 8,000 miles of transmission pipelines, to be as wide as 42 inches. It would reach that width in the West Virginia and Virginia stretches but fall to 36 inches in the North Carolina portion.
"We're expecting approval to take two years," Norvelle says, noting Dominion plans a formal application next year to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and aims to have the pipeline operational in late 2018. The pipeline partners include Piedmont Natural Gas and AGL Resources.
The pipeline, slated to cost between $4.5 billion and $5.0 billion, would carry 1.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas a day. That's a small but notable share of the 71 billion cubic feet of gas that the Energy Department says was consumed nationwide per day last year.
Santa says he doesn't expect the pipeline to engender the same controversy that has held up approval of the northern leg of the Keystone pipeline, which would carry tar sands oil from Canada to the upper Midwest.
"It's a different situation," he says, noting the Dominion-led project does not cross a national border so it does not need an environmental review and permit from the U.S. State Department. He says FERC has a good track record of authorizing gas pipelines, and there's public demand for natural gas deliveries.
As natural gas prices have fallen and the federal government has proposed limits on heat-trapping carbon dioxide emissions from power plants, more utilities are preparing to move away from coal.
Natural gas burns much cleaner than coal, but its pipeline leaks can emit pollutants that contribute to climate change. Fracking has also raised concerns about potential water contamination and its copious use of water in places with limited supply.
The pipeline's customers will include six utilities, including Duke Energy subsidiaries, Piedmont Natural Gas, Dominion's Virginia Power and PSNC Energy, which will use the gas to produce electricity for industrial and residential customers. | [

Three hundred and seventy-four flips per second or 22,440 rpm: That’s how quickly globular springtails spin when they jump from standing position. How does that compare with a helicopter rotor or racecar engines? Globular springtails are spinning faster. See them in their slow-mo glory and learn more about this small omnivorous hexapod in this video by AntLab‘s Dr. Adrian Smith.
Collembola are one of the most widely spread and numerous of all animals in the world. They live virtually everywhere. Car parks and city streets, in sand, up trees, on water, in houses, on plants. And in and around soil, of course. Wherever you go, looking with a hand-lens, there will most likely be a springtail scampering away from you.
“They’re officially the deepest living land animal, with a new species, Plutomurus ortobalaganensis, found in Krubera-Veronja cave in the Western Caucacus at a depth of 1,980 metres (6,500 feet) below ground. It was tempted out using cheese.”
Desoria species of Collembola happily live on the summit of Mount Everest, while another genus in Tasmania lives for a certain part of its life, underwater, eating crunchy diatoms.
Collembola are one of nature’s ultimate niche fillers, able to find a way into almost any environment in the world, given time. And time is something they’ve had a lot of. In 1919 a fossil collembolan, Rhyniella praecursor was found in the Rhynie chert. The chert dates to around 410 million years old, meaning that collembolans were one of the very first arthropods to become terrestrial.

Difference between 4G and LTE
While 2G and 3G networks were popular in the past few years, the demand for themhas reduced in recent times. Most 2G networks allow you to send text messages, make calls, and transfer small amounts of data over a protocol called Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS).
However, 2G networks were soon overpoweredby 3G networks, which enabled a number of larger data formats like videos, HTML pages, and music to become more accessible.
With furtherdevelopmentintechnology, the demand for4G LTE network in India has increased over 2G and 3G networks. The network is designed toimprove4G data connection speedsand offers a high degree of convenience.
4G stands for fourth generation of wireless mobile telecommunications technology. Instead of deploying circuit-switched technology,4G high speed internet networks are based on an all-Internet protocol (IP) packet switching. The speeds offered by 4G enable smooth handovers across various networks without any data loss, thereby providing better coverage and service quality.
The International Telecommunications Union-Radio communications sector (ITU-R) created a set of standards known as International Mobile Telecommunications Advanced (IMT-Advanced) that networks have to meet in order to be considered as 4G. The network must utilize Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (OFDMA) multi-carrier transmission methods or other frequency-domain equalization (FDE) methods. Also, connection speeds of devices like smartphones and tablets using 4G must have a peak of at least 100 megabits per second. For a user with wireless access or nomadic connection like hotspots, the connection speed needs to have a peak of 1 gigabit per second.
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is a technology developed by Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). LTE is designed to support roaming Internet access via smartphones and handheld devices. This network supports Web browsing, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), and otherIP-based services. LTE offers around30 Mbps upstream and 100 Mbps downstream data rates.Besides, this 3GPP-developed network provides extensible bandwidth capacity, reduced latency, as well as backwards compatibility with UMTS and GSM technology.
Difference between 4G and LTE
4G comprises several technologies like WiMAX, HSPA+, and LTE. Out of these, 4G LTE network is the most advanced in terms of speed. Other first generation 4G technologies like HSPA+ and WiMAX do not meet the performance standards displayed by LTE. Compared to other 4G technologies, LTE is also used to facilitate high-definition voice calls, which is not a feature supported by the rest.
If you seek seamless speed, you couldpurchase a smartphone that supports LTE network. It is also imperative to check the coverage maps for different carriers in order to identify which carrier offers LTE in your area.
Telecommunication carriers are already in the process of testing the fifth generation (5G) of mobile broadband connectivity. This network will be capable of providing a speed of 1 gigabit per second andwill also support numerous devices at once. Though no standards have yet been set, it is most likely that such a high-speed network will be introduced in India by 2020. For now, 4G-LTE is witnessing a growing demand both for its performance and affordability. | [

Fränzi was the most favoured model of the Brücke artists during the most significant late Dresden period. Lina Franziska Fehrmann, born in Dresden in 1900, met the artists in 1909. Heckel spoke many years later of their meeting “In my memory…she is a special event in 1909”. Gerd Presler writes that “Heckel was particularly inspired by the ‘child’ Fränzi” and that, as we know, both he and Kirchner and Pechstein would paint her standing side by side, even using the same paints. She first accompanied the artists on their visits to the Moritzburg lakes in the summer of 1909 and ever since has become an emblem of this period of Brücke art. She modeled in the Studio in Dresden and returned with the artists to the lakes again in the summer of 1910. The artists produced numerous sketches and paintings of Fränzi in a short period. Gerd Presler writes “Finally he (Heckel) achieved the creative event that Fränzi had set in motion, the high point in two colour woodcuts and among the best of Brücke Expressionist prints: ‘Stehendes Kind (Fränzi stehend) (Standing Child) and Fränzi liegend (Fränzi reclining)”. This period at the Moritzburg lakes was the decisive period for the artists as a group. “Never before and never afterwards were they so close to each other, both personally and artistically” and Fränzi is the ultimate symbol of this period. (see Gerd Presler, Fränzi, End of an error. Three “Brücke” Artists – One Model, Presler 2015).
The Brücke group was founded in Dresden in 1905. Membership of the group was designed to be both ‘active’ and ‘passive’. Apart from the founding members Kirchner, Fritz Bleyl, Heckel and Schmidt-Rottluff, later Pechstein, Nolde and Otto Mueller, the small group of ‘active’ members temporarily also included artists from further afield, such as the Swiss Cuno Amiet and the Finnish painter Akseli Gallén-Kallela. The group of ‘passive’ members on the other hand was to be drawn from the artist’s circle of friends and patrons, with the intention of establishing a body of firm and loyal supporters. Their membership fee was to provide a regular and vital, albeit small, source of income for the artists. In return for their annual subscription of initially 12 Marks, increased in 1911 to 25 Marks, the members would receive a membership card as well as an annual report and a presentation of three or four prints. In 1906-08, the prints were by various artists, in 1909-12 the presentation consisted of three prints by one artist, contained within a paper wrapper with a woodcut title by another artist of the group.The VI Jahresmappe of 1911 was dedicated to Erich Heckel and included the colour woodcut Stehendes Kind as well as a lithograph, Szene im Wald (D. 153) and the drypoint Strasse am Hafen (D. 91), all from 1910. The woodcut cover on blue paper was provided by Max Pechstein. The exact size of the edition is not known. However, Kirchner’s four woodcut lists of the ‘passive members’ (D. 700-704; published 1910 in the Brücke exhibition catalogue of Galerie Arnold, Dresden), cut between 1907 and 1910 as their numbers grew, name a total of 68 supporters. It seems safe to assume that a year later, in 1911, the number of members and hence the edition of the VI. Jahresmappe would not have greatly exceeded a total of seventy. | [

On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the University of Milan Bicocca, the Vittorio Veneto Liceo Scientifico, the European Commission and the BlueMissionMed Coordination and Support Action have organised a major event to promote intergenerational dialogue inspired by the European Mission: Restore our Oceans and Waters by 2030.
The event aimed to highlight the potential of the oceans, seas and rivers as important components of the European economy and emphasise the collective responsibility to protect and restore these vital ecosystems. By showcasing different Mission Lighthouses, it aimed to inspire future ocean leaders and provide insights into the diverse job opportunities of the Blue Economy.
A key part of the event was an intergenerational dialogue for the exchange of knowledge and expertise, involving various Mission-related projects and engaging young leaders in discussions focused on innovative solutions and scientific advances.
Under the guidance of experienced scientists and representatives from the private sector, students and young researchers worked together in different classrooms, each dedicated to one of the four thematic challenges – The role and management of marine protected areas, Marine Biodiversity Inland Waters and Plastic pollution.
The A-AAGORA project was part of the classroom on marine biodiversity. A-AAGORA is structured to support the European Commission’s mission to “Restore our Oceans and Waters by 2030” as part of the “Atlantic-Arctic Basin lighthouse”. | [

The Starry Night So Iconic
The Starry Night is a painting by Vincent van Gogh, created in 1889. It is one of the most iconic paintings in history and is considered a masterpiece of Western art. The painting depicts the view from his room at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France, where he was a patient. The painting is known for its swirling brushstrokes, vibrant colors, and incredible depth. But what makes The Starry Night so iconic?
The Unique Style of Vincent van Gogh
Vincent van Gogh was a Dutch painter who lived from 1853 to 1890. He is famous for his unique style, which included thick brushstrokes, bold colors, and dramatic compositions. Van Gogh used his art as a way to express his emotions and his view of the world. His paintings were often inspired by nature and his surroundings, and he sought to capture the essence of his subjects rather than just their physical appearance.
The Emotional Impact of The Starry Night
The Starry Night is a perfect example of Van Gogh’s emotional approach to painting. The painting conveys a deep sense of emotion and movement through its swirling brushstrokes and vibrant colors. The sky is depicted as a swirling mass of stars and clouds, and the village below looks calm and peaceful in comparison. This contrast creates a feeling of tension and drama in the painting.
The painting also has a dreamlike quality that adds to its emotional impact. The landscape is distorted and the colors are exaggerated, giving the painting a surreal and otherworldly feel. This dreamlike quality adds to the emotional impact of the painting, as it creates a sense of mystery and wonder.
The Influence of The Starry Night
The Starry Night has had a profound influence on the art world and popular culture. The painting has been reproduced countless times, and has been featured in movies, television shows, and even on clothing. The painting has become a symbol of the power of art to touch people’s hearts and minds.
The painting has also influenced other artists, who have been inspired by its unique style and emotional impact. The painting has been the subject of countless imitations and parodies, but none have been able to capture its magic. | [

I have experimented with different types of papers. Draw a little bit over the border to make a color gradient. Here’s a short video showing how I trowel it on, scratch blend it in and remove a … When you become proficient or decide that you really like the medium, then it's time to upgrade, experiment, and compare different brands, quality, etc. Underpainting. In fact, oil pastels can be used to teach some of the painterly techniques commonly taught with acrylic or oil paint. Oil pastels are a fun and exciting choice for all beginners that will uplift your inspiration and send you on your way to become a great artist. Continue around the painting, adding initial colors with the oil pastels, finger blending and brush blending with a tad bit of OMS to dissolve the stubborn areas. Here’s a quick lesson that uses this technique. The magic happens when you apply the canola oil with a brush onto the pastel and watch the pastel melt into a liquid form. A broomstick works quite well. Start out with sketching a contour drawing on watercolour paper, sanded pastel paper or your choice of surface. Oil pastels are the perfect medium to create simple but interesting landscapes. Learn how to make a Pastel Oil Painting. Instructions for making oil pastels: 1. Make sure to use a small bristle brush…soft brushes will not have the strength to handle the scrubbing. You can blend colours by layering the oil pastels. Step 3: paint with pastels! If you want to color with oil pastels you should first make sure you have a sketch book, oil pastels, cotton swabs and an eraser. 6. However, this does make watercolour paper a great option for a quick activity with school students when there is minimal time for work to dry. Keep It Tidy. In my example video below you will see I alternate between applying oil pastel and using the brush to blend my colours. Wait for some time, then take a stick or a sharp-tipped tool and start scratching the black surface slowly. Cover the cloud area with white pastel and overlap white onto other areas to blend the sky and make it look more like a painting. What Are Oil Pastels? It is all about mixing one painting medium over the other and see how it works on the final picture. Mix Media: Acrylics And Pastels Together. But like chalk, oil pastels have a tendency to smudge. This page is for all those questions. Oil pastels and oil paints may be used together, but never mix oil pastels with acrylic paints because … Do not apply too much oil at once or you will thin out your colours too much. But, it doesn’t have to be … Allow the picture to take shape under your scrutiny while trying to get it all right. Dip your cotton bud in a little bit of oil, wipe off the drips then rub it over your drawing and watch the oil pastels magically turn to paint! I did fix it with Krylon workable fixative. But like starting any new hobby, first, assemble the basics. Also use the newspaper to ‘clean’ the oil pastels. Next, … Add detail on top. You can always use just either one of them. Have you try adding pastels or other media to your watercolors? 1. Oil painting can get messy. It is perfect for use with oil pastels because its shape is very similar to that of a brush.

You can mix colors by layering them, here green and blue, but you always get a bit of a “broken” color. When you decide to start painting or drawing with pastels, the choice of art supplies available can be overwhelming and confusing. Gather your supplies with the following materials list: oil pastels (any brand of oil pastel works, I have used the Micador range in the tutorial), canola oil (any cooking oil or baby oil is suitable). Since oil pastels contain a non-drying binder, the product doesn't purport to fully dry out the oil pastels, but it does fix and harden the oil pastels to reduce smudging and protect the surface against dust. The baby oil will liquefy the paint a bit and allow it to spread around nicely. These layers of broken colour can either work | [

What is the minimum area of a shape that can cover every unit-length curve?
Moser's worm problem (also known as mother worm's blanket problem) is an unsolved problem in geometry formulated by the Austrian-Canadian mathematician Leo Moser in 1966. The problem asks for the region of smallest area that can accommodate every plane curve of length 1. Here "accommodate" means that the curve may be rotated and translated to fit inside the region. In some variations of the problem, the region is restricted to be convex.
For example, a circular disk of radius 1/2 can accommodate any plane curve of length 1 by placing the midpoint of the curve at the center of the disk. Another possible solution has the shape of a rhombus with vertex angles of 60 and 120 degrees (π/3 and 2π/3 radians) and with a long diagonal of unit length. However, these are not optimal solutions; other shapes are known that solve the problem with smaller areas.
It is not completely trivial that a solution exists – an alternative possibility would be that there is some minimal area that can be approached but not actually attained. However, in the convex case, the existence of a solution follows from the Blaschke selection theorem.
It is also not trivial to determine whether a given shape forms a solution. Gerriets & Poole (1974) conjectured that a shape accommodates every unit-length curve if and only if it accommodates every unit-length polygonal chain with three segments, a more easily tested condition, but Panraksa, Wetzel & Wichiramala (2007) showed that no finite bound on the number of segments in a polychain would suffice for this test.
The problem remains open, but over a sequence of papers researchers have tightened the gap between the known lower and upper bounds. In particular, Norwood & Poole (2003) constructed a (nonconvex) universal cover and showed that the minimum shape has area at most 0.260437; Gerriets & Poole (1974) and Norwood, Poole & Laidacker (1992) gave weaker upper bounds. In the convex case, Wang (2006) improved an upper bound to 0.270911861. Khandhawit, Pagonakis & Sriswasdi (2013) used a min-max strategy for area of a convex set containing a segment, a triangle and a rectangle to show a lower bound of 0.232239 for a convex cover.
In the 1970s, John Wetzel conjectured that a 30 degree circular sector of unit radius is a cover with area. Two proofs of the conjecture were independently claimed by Movshovich & Wetzel (2017) and by Panraksa & Wichiramala (2019). If confirmed, this will reduce the upper bound for the convex cover by about 3%.

[JURIST] The government of Norway has proposed new legislation that would allow embryonic stem cell research [JURIST news archive] to potentially find cures for various diseases. Norwegian Minister of Health and Care Services Silvia Brustad [official website, English version] said late last week that the government hoped researchers could use the stem cells to find potential cures for AIDS, cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. Under current Norwegian law, fertilized eggs or stem cells are not able to be used in research, and eggs created for artificial insemination must be destroyed. Brustad said passing the legislation would bring Norway more in line with other European nations, including Germany, Italy and Slovenia, which approved [JURIST report] an EU research budget to fund stem cell research last year.
The proposed legislation would require consent from parents before stem cells are used for research and also requires a national ethics panel to approve the research before it commences. The legislation would also prohibit the fertilization of eggs specifically for research; only extra embryos of poor quality produced through in vitro fertilization [Wikipedia backgrounder] or extras that have been stored for over five years may be used. The ruling coalition currently has the necessary majority to pass the legislation, but it is unknown whether any lawmakers from the Labour, Center or Socialist parties will oppose the controversial amendment. AP has more.
Last year Australia lifted its restrictions on stem cell research [JURIST report] and also approved the therapeutic cloning of human embryos. In the United States, the House of Representatives passed a bill earlier this month which would amend the Public Health Service Act to allow for additional embryonic stem cell research [JURIST report]. The White House has promised to veto the bill. President Bush vetoed an earlier embryonic stem cell research bill [JURIST report] last summer. | [

PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa says his government is looking beyond mining diamonds to research, polishing and cutting of the mineral to achieve a 12-billion-dollar industry by the year 2023.
Speaking during the re-launch of Anjin investments in Chiadzwa this Saturday, President Mnangagwa said the Minister of State for Manicaland Province, Dr Ellen Gwaradzimba has since forwarded plans for the establishment of a centre in Mutare where diamonds will be processed, polished and cut for export.
Cde Mnangagwa also said the re-launch of the company will benefit the mining industry as Anjin has vast experience in the diamond mining industry.
He said before the company’s closure in 2016, it used to contribute close to 200 million us dollars to the country’s Gross Domestic Product.
The President added that the local mining industry should not only produce enough for the local market but also aim for the export market through capacitating the Zimbabwe Consolidated Diamond Company.
“I am informed that there is a place in India where there is no diamond mine, but they have a US$5 billion diamond industry. I’m told Zimbabwe contributes a lot of diamonds there. I don’t know how those diamonds get there.
“We need that value addition done here in Zimbabwe, not elsewhere so that we extract the maximum value of the minerals which we have. With unity of purpose, hard, honest work and greater determination, the realisation of the US$12 billion mining economy and the attainment of our national vision 2030 will soon become a reality.”
He also spoke on corruption saying those found on the wrong side of the law should be brought to book despite their social, financial or political status.
Anjin has so far invested US$38 million to resuscitate operations and will soon employ about 500 people.
President Mnangagwa implored the company and other firms operating in Chiadzwa to prioritise the employment of locals, especially women and youths.
“I urge Anjin and other companies here to ensure that women and youths are the largest beneficiaries of employment opportunities being created. I urge mining firms to undertake relevant responsive corporate social responsibility programmes for the benefit of local communities,” said the President.
The commissioning ceremony was attended by Vice President Dr Constantino Chiwenga, Mines and Mining Development Minister Winston Chitando, Defence and War Veterans Affairs Minister Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri, Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube and Minister of State for Manicaland Provincial Affairs and Devolution Ellen Gwaradzimba.
Yesterday’s visit to Manicaland was the President’s last stop in an economic projects tour which began in Victoria Falls on Thursday where he officially launched the National Tourism Recovery and Growth Strategy.
The President led the restart of the sector, whose contribution to the national economy has been heavily crippled by the outbreak of Covid-19.
Earlier on President Mnangagwa had toured tourism facilities in the resort town before commissioning the 19-suite luxurious Mbano Manor Hotel, which was built using local funding.
He also visited the massive 146-room Palm Lodge facility, which is still under construction and is estimated to cost close to US$24 million.
On Friday, the President commissioned a 32,2km stretch of the Harare-Masvingo-Beitbridge Highway under Phase One of the rehabilitation, upgrading and widening project. The work is being done by local contractors. The President had a stopover in Chivhu where Fossil Contracting has completed a 9km of which 7,2km has been opened for traffic, while Masimba Construction, Exodus and Company, and Tensor Systems are at priming stage and will start surfacing this month. | [

If George Eliot hadn’t pretended to be male, she may never have been published at all. If J.K. Rowling hadn’t taken her publisher’s advice to obscure her gender, she may not have created the Harry Potter franchise and become a billionaire and then a millionaire because she gave so much money away. If rape survivors choose to publicly tell their stories, with their real names and photos they risk a lifelong victimization by a sexist culture.
I wish this culture didn’t make it so preferable for women to keep their stories and gender secret and hidden.
I’m grateful to every woman who publicly tells her story.
Thank you to Madeleine Smith, a graduate of Harvard University who was raped while attending college and spoke at the release of the first report of the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault. You’re a hero and you’re changing the world for women, something you can’t do without a face and a name. Other women will hear you and see you and they will choose to tell their secret stories too. Seeing you puts the shame where it belongs, back on the perpetrators.
Thank you to another hero, Ashley Sapp of the Survivor Stories Blog Interview Project. In honor of Mother’s Day, the project features an interview per day with a survivor of any form of violence against women (VAW) including domestic violence, rape, sexual assault, female genital mutilation, forced/child marriage, and sex trafficking.
When women stay silent and invisible, all women and girls are affected. We all learn that our stories– whatever they may be– are not important and don’t matter. When women tell the truth publicly, they give us all permission and inspiration to do the same. | [

Power generation plants play a pivotal role in our modern infrastructure across the world, providing energy to our homes, businesses, and vital institutions. To keep these vital plants operating 24/7 as well as keeping safety at the forefront, we have to look at regular welding maintenance. Ensuring seamless and safe power generation requires diligent care and attention to every welded part that is crucial for a plant to continue functioning. But what are some of the best practices that make this a reality? Let’s explore!
Understanding the Importance of Welding in Power Generation Plants
Welding in power plants serves a dual purpose, holding together critical structures and ensuring the seamless operation of systems. Regular maintenance is paramount for a few reasons:
Critical Areas of Focus: Power plants house various sections, such as Section 1 boundary and B31.1 boundary, with the former being of higher criticality. This section includes high-pressure valves and more intricate components requiring specialized welders. Neglecting maintenance can lead to accelerated corrosion and, eventually, to significant structural failures.
Preventing Catastrophic Failures: Over time, factors like heat and constant operation can weaken welds and the surrounding material. Without regular maintenance and inspection, issues like flow-accelerated corrosion can emerge, causing pipes to blow out, and potentially leading to catastrophic failures.
Spotting Issues Early On
Spotting welding issues early is essential, yet it can be challenging. Many power plant components are enclosed, so visual inspections might not always catch developing problems. Often, by the time audible signs (like internal banging or hissing) become apparent, it might be too late. Regular inspections using advanced tools and technologies are vital. For instance, some plants have begun to incorporate temperature monitoring systems to ensure no section of the infrastructure overheats.
The Role of Quality Control
Quality control in power generation plants goes beyond just checking for errors. It ensures:
All components are welded and installed correctly.
The right filler materials are used.
Everything is torqued to the correct specifications.
A lack of adequate quality control can lead to significant safety and operational issues. For instance, valves installed in the wrong direction can cause inefficient flow, potentially leading to safety hazards due to pressure build-up.
When quality control is consistently applied, it undoubtedly extends the lifespan of the plant’s infrastructure. This not only safeguards the investment made into the plant but ensures a continuous supply of power to the grid.
ARC's Differentiated Approach to Welding Maintenance
When plant managers seek a reliable partner for welding maintenance, we believe that ARC stands out. Here’s why:

SA… series junction boxes are made from aluminium alloy and given an electrostatically applied epoxy coating containing stainless steel particles that is then baked at 200°C. This treatment ensures good UV as well as thermal stability, providing mechanical impact resistance and excellent resistance when exposed either to salt mist or to marine and other damp environments. SA series junction boxes are usually installed in industrial plants where there is a risk of explosion and fire, classified as Zone 1, 2, 21, 22; they are mainly used as junction boxes and/or for routing cables to control rooms for analogue or digital signals and for control, monitoring and signalling associated with equipment such as motors, pumps…etc., or for giving physical readings such as flow rate, level, temperature, pressure, etc…. The thickness of its walls (7mm) means the SAG series is suitable for direct connection with pipes and fittings featuring tapered threads. Cortem’s custom solutions offer ATEX- and IECEx-certified components and application solutions devised for use in explosion hazard areas. The expert Cortem team endeavours to meet all customer requests.
TYPE AND APPLICATION
Choosing an appropriate container is a key step in the project development process, making it essential to approach the decision systematically, evaluating all variables methodically: where our equipment is being installed, the environmental conditions on site, what degree of protection it must have, what space is available and how it is due to be set up. Once you have processed all this information, you should be able to determine which product best suits the design requirements in question.
The first factor to consider is what environmental conditions the equipment is going to be installed in, whether it will be indoors or outside, and what environments it is required to operate in: pharmaceutical, chemical, petrochemical, food, shipbuilding, agricultural industries…
The size of the space available for inserting the enclosure and its components must be determined early on in the process.
Taking into account the technical aspect, product design and appearance is also important in ensuring the equipment to be installed in the enclosure is integrated seamlessly. A Cortem team of experts is on hand every day to address your questions and come up with the best solutions.
Cortem enclosures have passed:
-IP protection testing;
-IK strength testing;
-vibration and impact resistance testing;

Andrew Brunson and his wife, Norine, served as missionaries in Turkey for 23 years. During that time, he was pastor at Izmir Diriliş (Resurrection) Church, a small evangelical Presbyterian congregation in the city of Izmir. While applying for Turkish permanent residency in 2016, Andrew was falsely accused of terrorism, and both he and Norine were arrested. While she was released about two weeks later, he remained imprisoned for two years. After his release, the couple immediately returned to the United States. Andrew has since authored a book titled God’s Hostage: A True Story of Persecution, Imprisonment, and Perseverance. Andrew and Norine have three children.

British artist, Angela Easterling takes photography back to its initial starting points. Working frequently with scientists, recording rare and endangered plants from all over the world, she is inspired by both the technique and objectives of the early pioneers such as Fox Talbot and Anna Atkins.
Her images aim to document, but often display their subjects not abstractly, but in a way not ordinarily seen. Easterling’s work has a clear, simple approach to record the plants she sees. Using modern, colour photographic paper and chemicals, she creates soft lines and pale colours to present nature as she wishes.
‘Poppy’, Photogram, c. 2001
This is an example of Easterling recording of plants. The photogram process is one that can show a huge amount of detail, and she uses this feature to document.
The poppy is centrally positioned, with the stem acting as a line into the piece from the border. On the poppy, the incredible detail of the veins in the flower give a texture and pattern to the image which makes it appear very realistic. A range of tones appear through the piece, helping to show depth and the quality of the plant material.
‘Adam’, Photogram, 2001
Created by Easterling while working at the Eden Project in Cornwall, this image along with ‘Eve’, are direct body prints onto paper. Easterling gives the image depth, with darker, thinner areas away from the paper, with limbs blurring away in to the background.
The shape of the man appears similar to ancient cave paintings, the image depicting an early, fundamental man. Colours are used to give the image quite a cold feel, with purples around the fading areas but weak yellows where the body has reacted with the paper. | [

Roger, you aren't as smart as you think you are. Look into the conditions for perfect competition (the only situation when free markets lead to efficient outcomes). Supply and demand only converge on a fair market price when there are many buyers and sellers. These days in America, there are very few buyers of low-skill labor. This gives them the power to force workers to accept wages below the efficient level. Our labor market is broken and wages stopped reflecting productivity several decades ago: https://thecurrentmoment.files.wordpress.c…
"If these clowns put half the effort and passion into upgrading their skills as they do into this losing proposition, they could make a livable wage."
Perhaps if they had the time and money to do so, they would.
"[E]ven if they did get $15 an hour, inflation would adjust and they would be in the exact situation they are today."
Not actually how it works. Nice job keeping to the talking points though.
Also Dave, there's nothing mysterious about why wages and productivity have decoupled. Globalization, technology, and policy have all worked in tandem to reduce workers' bargaining power. Fewer low-skill jobs and less organization means lower wages. Not to say that globalization and technological improvements are bad, but in addition to their benefits, they have caused a problem that we desperately need to fix. Historically, stagnant wages are exactly what gets the landlord lynched.
"So what's your answer to this great mysterious divide, smart guy? The decoupling of wages and productivity?"
The easy, sloppy way is to raise the minimum wage. The better, harder way is to fix our labor markets by making them more flexible. Higher education, workforce training, transportation, and housing all need to be adequately funded so that workers have access to a wide range of employers. Wages stopped going up because workers are captive. We need to liberate them.
"People are always suffering, and raising the minimum wage will not prevent that. The reasons have been discussed multiple times here so there's no need to repeat."
Broch, this is empirically false: http://www.cepr.net/documents/publications…
You are actively harming America's poor by propagating economic falsehoods. Please educate yourself.
"More people, fewer jobs, fewer people earning incomes. How will many support themselves, much less families?"
More people have to own more capital. The government is going to have to help with that.
"We had this same, exact conversation 20 years ago, when Congress wanted to raise it to $7.25/hr. And now people think going over twice that is going to make things better?"
Mateo, you would do well to learn the difference between nominal and real values.

[one-users] missing security model when using multiple labels
keksior at gmail.com
Thu Jul 3 07:11:18 PDT 2014
I'm upgrading my cluster network from 1 Gb to 10 Gb. So i need to power off
my hypervisor node, change network interfaces and put it back. The problem
is, when i did it on the my first server when i try to migrate VM's to it
or any another server i'm having this error:
migrate: Command "virsh --connect qemu:///system migrate --live one-72
qemu+ssh://node-01/system" failed: error: XML error: missing security model
when using multiple labels
How can i got this working back? Few VM's i can move around my cluster,
but rest of it i cannot migrate live. Before reconnecting my node-01
everything was working fine.

Agartala: Tripura has achieved a significant position in terms of vaccinating the people across the state and vaccinated 89 per cent of people above 45 years against the national average of 35 per cent, said education minister and cabinet spokesperson Ratan Lal Nath.
Speaking with reporters, Nath said that of the total five states that have vaccinated over 60 per cent of people above 45 years of age, Tripura has topped the list by vaccinating 89 per cent population till May 31.
He also said that 40.07 per cent of people have been covered in the vaccination drive with the help of people and their active participation in awareness and mass testing.
“We had a target of 1,04,494 for those above 45 years, and around 90,000 people were vaccinated, which is 86 per cent. For those 60 above, the target of 61,710 people as per the electoral roll was set, and we have vaccinated 64,539 people, which is 104 per cent population,” Nath said.
He also said that it was possible due to the local clubs and people involved in helping the state government by bringing people from their homes to participate in the mass vaccination and testing drive.
“This was no less than a miracle for the state to vaccinate so many people over the last one month time. We have administered a total of 16,06,456 people. A total of 10,98,818 people have received the first dose, while 5,07,638 people received the second dose as of May 31,” Nath added.
He also said that the state presently has a stock of 2,73,390 doses and 1,92,850 more doses in the pipeline, that would be received in June.
Tripura also conducted the highest single-day test 15,683 to trace the infected people on Sunday.
Giving breakups of May, he said that on May 1, 5318 people were tested, on May 18- 10,185, May 19-10,699, May 20-11,438 were tested, May 21- 14,589, on May 29, 13,371 and on May 30 record 15,683 people were tested.
According to the health media bulletin, on May 29 the positivity rate was at 6.39 per cent which reduced to 2.51 on May 30 with the increases in the number of tests.
“On May 29 the West Tripura district had a 16.67 positivity rate, which on May 30 reduced to 3.12 per cent. In the case of Agartala, the rate was 17.48 per cent, and it now stands to 6.40 per cent,” Nath said.
He said that this was possible due to mass vaccination, testing and awareness across the state. He said except for the Khowai district, other districts are in a better position and praised the South Tripura district for conducting 7,102 COVID tests in a single day.

This thesis addresses control design for fixed-wing air-breathing aircraft. Four aircraft with distinct dynamical properties are considered: a scram-jet powered hypersonic (100foot long, X-43 like, wedge shaped) aircraft with flexible modes operating near Mach 8, 85k ft, a NASA HiMAT (Highly Maneuverable Aircraft Technology) F-18 aircraft, a McDonnell Douglas AV-8A Harrier aircraft, and a Vought F-8 Crusader aircraft. A two-input two-output (TITO) longitudinal LTI (linear time invariant) dynamical model is used for each aircraft. Control design trade studies are conducted for each of the aircraft. Emphasis is placed on the hypersonic vehicle because of its complex nonlinear (unstable, non-minimum phase, …

Stunning actress Mena Suvari has fabulous skin – and she’s sharing her secret, here – it’s all about what you eat!
The ‘American Pie Reunion’ star is considered one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood and she says her beauty regime is based on diet first, then cosmetics.
She explained, “My father was European so there was always fresh food in the house. People get caught up in trying to treat themselves from the outside in and it’s really about what you do on the inside.”
Mena protects her complexion by living a healthy lifestyle that includes steering clear of things like alcohol and late nights (more time for that beauty sleep, of course!). Instead, the 33-year-old actress prefers to spend her evenings at home relaxing – “I like staying at home. I’ve definitely been there, done that I don’t drink anymore and I don’t really go out. For me, I know what works.”
Glowing skin and an excuse to get plenty of sleep? Sounds like the perfect beauty remedy to us! | [

Seth Resnick - Great Photographs Are Where You Find Them
Seth Resnick is the consummate professional. His polished and sophisticated images are mostly shot on location, where he works with portable lighting gear and digital cameras.
Solving problems. Seth Resnick's career all comes down to solving problems. The award-winning photographer lives for those opportunities where he can take a situation that poses a challenge and figure out how to make it work with the tools at his disposal. “I like to make something out of nothing,” says Resnick.
With an eye for isolating the critical components of an image, Resnick has proven to be a master of creating extra-ordinary images from ordinary scenes.
The beginning of the digital age in photography marked a major turning point for Resnick. “Digital was a phenomenal step forward,” he says. “With digital, the camera becomes a light table. I used to measure my insecurity by the amount of film I shot. I'd find that I was shooting frame after frame, and when I'd get the images back from the lab, I'd see that they were almost all the same. I wasn't doing anything different; I was just shooting. Or worse than that, I'd have frame after frame of the same shot, only there would be a pole sticking out in the background that I never saw and that I could have fixed just by moving slightly. The same thing happened to me in the darkroom with black-and-white prints. I could spend hours on a print tweaking corners and edges, and later I'd look at all of the dried prints and there was no visible difference in any of them. It was very frustrating. Now, I use the camera's LCD to edit as I go. It's a completely different way of photographing. I can shoot, review, edit and adjust. That gives me a real incentive to shoot all the time.”
Resnick always tries to carry a camera with him for those moments when he walks by a subject or situation that catches his eye. Often, he returns to see if there's a picture, sometimes revisiting a spot several times and experimenting with a variety of compositions. “With digital, the film is free,” he says.
Adds Resnick, who has been totally digital for the last few years, “I don't ever get the ‘I missed it' feeling that I used to get when I shot film. I'll never shoot film again. I have a Canon D30 that I still like to play around with, but when I got the Canon EOS 1D, that made me about 90% digital. When the EOS 1Ds came out, I was 100% digital.”
Resnick is passionate about shooting in RAW only. “RAW is what's needed for ultimate control,” he says. “I want to be able to make my own JPEGs with my own metadata attached rather than the camera's metadata. In the end, it's all about the control. I'm doing a seminar in a few weeks, and we're making up T-shirts that say RAW in big letters. I definitely want to get that point across.” | [

There are many plants that can be used in a garden, and each has its own unique features that make it perfect for a specific area or use. Some of the best plants to choose include roses, lilies, begonias, ferns, Miltonia and hibiscus. Each plant has its own care requirements that need to be followed in order to keep it healthy and thriving. Some of the most important things to do when caring for a plant are to water it regularly, fertilize it monthly with a balanced fertilizer and reduce watering in dry weather. It is also important to mulch your plants in the fall and winter to help protect them from freezing temperatures and provide them with added protection from direct sunlight.
The Three Essential Functions of Gardening Gardening is an essential part of any homestead, as it provides fresh vegetables and fruits, flowers, and ornamental plants. There are three essential functions that gardening performs: Weeding, fertilizing, and watering. Weeding is necessary to remove unwanted growth from your garden, including weeds, flowers, and saplings. Fertilizing helps to promote healthy plants by supplying them with the nutrients they need to grow. Watering keeps your plants moist and able to properly absorb nutrients.
A border or flower bed can really spruce up a garden. Not only will it add visual interest, but it can also provide privacy and protection from the elements. If you're looking to add one, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, make sure the border or bed is large enough to accommodate your plants. Second, choose plants that will grow well in the area you're planting them in, and be sure to water them regularly. Finally, make sure the border or bed is properly maintained; frequent fertilization and watering are essential for keeping it looking great.
Weather can be harsh on plants, causing them to suffer from dehydration and pests. To protect your plants from the weather, you can use a garden cover. A garden cover is a durable fabric that is stretched over a garden bed and helps to protect the plants from the weather. A garden cover also helps to insulate the plants from the cold weather and protects them from pests. You can purchase a garden cover in many stores or online.
A garden can be a tranquil oasis in the hustle and bustle of city life. The mix of fresh air, peaceful surroundings, and congenial company can be refreshing and calming. Whether you are looking for a place to relax or to get some exercise, a garden is a great place to do both.
Gardening requires patience, dedication, and a bit of elbow grease. Not to mention, youll need to have soil ready to go and plants that are suited for your climate. But if you have the right tools, planting vegetables and flowers in a garden can provide you with fresh produce all year long! If you live in a temperate area, autumn is the time to plant things like kale, Brussels sprouts, and cabbage. These vegetables will mature over winter and spring, so you can enjoy their flavor all season long! You can also grow tomatoes in warm climates all year round, but they will fruit better during the summer months. In contrast, if you live in a colder climate, start planting things like rhubarb and strawberries in early spring. These plants will grow quickly and produce fruits throughout the summer months. And if you want to grow herbs or flowers indoors all year round, choose plants like basil or jasmine that do well in low light conditions.
Gardening is a great way to use your imagination and broaden your knowledge. By growing plants, you can learn about different aspects of natural life and the world around you. You can also create beautiful landscapes and metropolises with your plants.
Raised bed covers can be used as an attractive addition to any garden or yard. They are a great way to conserve soil moisture and help keep plants warm in cooler weather. When planted with flowering plants, raised bed covers can help deter deer and other predators from eating plants. | [

Morning links: Maryland stomps Virginia in Charlottesville
Virginia was able to halt Jordan Williams's double-double streak, but that was just about all the Cavaliers were able to do in a 66-42 loss, Maryland's biggest win in Charlottesville since 1930.
Thanks to Adrian Bowie's 22 points and a stifling defense, the Terarpins crushed the Cavaliers.
Maryland stifled Virginia's three-point attack, which is about the only type of attack the injury-riddled, rebuilding Cavaliers have these days.
Said Virginia guard Jontel Evans: "I guess they just wanted it more."
Check out the game stats here.
Over at The 68, Eric Prisbell takes a look at Maryland's NCAA tournament chances after the big win. The gist: The Terrapins are heading in the right direction, but still have a ways to go.

M&M you must always remember braver than you believe shirt
I did the same 15 years ago and my life has been so much more peaceful. It took me 43 years to break the chains. 3 years ago, I made the mistake to invite them into my life one more time, only to be screwed over for the last time. it takes another man to put an abuser in his place. I’ve done that once or twice. Men who abuse think they are all that until they square off with another man. And oh boy do they turn around so quick.
It’s your turn now to show Gods love! Your act of kindness can make people feel the pain they imposed on you! You are loved my dear and they will pay a price one day I | [

Nutriment's organic lamb and tripe recipe contains 100% human-grade quality organic lamb meat, offal and bone. Carefully selected by our in-house canine nutritionists, our premium ingredients are biologically appropriate, easily digestible and packed with nutrients, which promotes optimal canine health. Our organic range is free from fillers, grain, additives and preservatives, which are often found in commercially available dog foods and can be potentially harmful to dogs. Our organic meat comes from a certified biodynamic and organic farm in Hampshire, England, where biodiversity and slow, natural growth of animals and plants are the fundamental principles.
This product is a Pet food and VAT is included in the price at 20%
Nutriment - Laverstoke Organic Lamb and Tripe-5kg
- Contains 100% organic fresh meat, offal and bone.
Organic Lamb Breast with Bone (50%), Organic Lamb Tripe (30%), Organic Lamb Heart (10%), Organic Lamb Kidney (5%), Organic Lamb Liver (5%).
Nutriment's organic lamb and tripe recipe contains 100% organic lamb, lamb offal, tripe and bone. The nutrient profile of organic meat makes it a complete meal for dogs, without need for supplementary nutrition from vegetable and superfood sources. We formulate our Laverstoke organic range to consist of an 80/10/10 meat/bone/offal ratio for optimal nutrition.
Organic lamb meat is naturally rich in essential fatty acids such as Omega-3 which promote the health of the skin and coat whilst also providing a source of energy. Lamb is also very rich in niacin, vitamin B12, zinc and selenium, which all contribute to optimal bodily functions. The ground bone contained in our recipe also contributes to great oral health and hygiene which is imperative to the overall health of dogs. Poor oral hygiene can create unpleasant side effects which can affect the digestive and immune system of dogs.
Organic lamb liver, heart and kidney are all fantastic sources of riboflavin, niacin, thiamin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, copper, selenium and iron, as well as being great sources of protein. These are all essential nutrients which contribute to the overall health of dogs, including, heart, skin, bone, blood, digestive, oral and immune system health.
The digestive enzymes, gastric juices and amino acids found in lamb tripe are very nutritious for dogs as they contribute to a dog's own digestion and well as the health of other body functions. Lamb, lamb offal and lamb tripe are all considered complete protein sources for dogs, meaning that they contain all 10 of the essential amino acids that dogs need to consume as part of their diet.
Just like organic human food, there are many health benefits to feeding dogs organic dog food. As well as reducing your dog's exposure to pesticides and maintaining high standards of animal welfare, our organic dog food is nutritionally different, meaning it is complete without the need for supplementary vegetables or superfoods. It may also be more appropriate for dogs who suffer from food allergies and intolerances.
Nutriment's organic Lamb and Tripe recipe is available in 10 x 500g trays. | [

If you’re sorting through which trends are worth investing for spring, then don’t overlook this Instagram-worthy style: cutout tops. Although the wardrobe choice may sound intimidating, designers are recreating this trend in fresh and contemporary ways beyond the usual stigma. These minimal yet revealing details are a welcome departure from the tight and slinky cutouts of past, making them both stylishly unexpected and actually wearable.
This time around, designers stuck to neutral tones and simple fabrics while letting these eccentric cutouts do the talking this season. Some inventive iterations from the Spring 2021 runways included geometric neckline cutouts from Chloé, shoulder-skin details from Khaite, and asymmetrical midriff slashes from Brandon Maxwell. While some designs boasted maximal cutouts with holes and netting, this particular trend is best on its own as a spotlighted detail on a knit dress or a simple top.
In the form of thin, ribbed knitwear and light cotton tanks, cutout tops can easily be integrated into your spring wardrobe in a number of ways: Pair them with jeans and loafers or under a midi slip dress with sneakers for a perfect in-between-seasons 'fit.
As you pull together your capsule wardrobe for spring, keep the cutout tops we chose, below, on your high-priority wishlist.
We only include products that have been independently selected by NYLON's editorial team. However, we may receive a portion of sales if you purchase a product through a link in this article. | [

BANGKOK, Feb 3 – THAI Smile Air, Thai Airways International (THAI)’s new sub-brand carrier, will begin its first operational flight July 1 from Bangkok to Macau.
THAI Executive Vice President for Strategy and Business Development, Chokchai Panyayong, spoke after a board meeting which also approved business plans for both THAI and its new airline.
Flight captains and cabin crew are ready for THAI Smile Air’s operations, he said.
The first route to Macau will operate two flights daily. Tickets will begin being sold in April. The passenger load is expected to reach over 70 per cent per flight.
Four aircraft are to be operated this year for the main routes from the Thai capital to Chiang Mai, Phuket, Kolkata, Jakarta, and Phnom Penh.
The airline’s name ‘THAI Smile Air’ was approved in August last year by the THAI executive board.
According to THAI President Piyasvasti Amranand, the new carrier is positioned to be a light-premium sub-brand of THAI, offering passengers another option for flight services.
The airline’s image will be based on a trendy, friendly and worthy concept, different than the general concept of other low-cost airliners.
Regarding Thai Airways International, the board also approved THAI’s strategic plan for 2012-2018 and its business plan for 2012-2013. Under the plan, the national flag carrier will be modernised, with 51 aircraft to be decommissioned, and a new fleet of 56 aircraft will be acquired, 26 of which will be purchased and 30 will be acquired through leasing. | [

Growing up in the small rural community of Central, Alaska, our school didn’t always have enough students to remain open. And when it did, the students were spread out over a large area.
My family was eight miles at the end of one of three roads, and with one bus, it made our commute rather long. There were a couple of families that lived near us and we all used the same bus stop. So each morning, Clint and I would walk about 3/4 of a mile up the hill and meet with the other kids while we waited for the bus.
It was springtime and we were in between a constant thaw/freeze cycle as temperatures during the day would get just above freezing and drop below at night. This particular morning it was already barely above freezing and the road was covered in slushy ice.
We trudged up the hill, Clint constantly encouraging me to keep up. It was cold enough we needed a coat, but warm enough that we didn’t zip it up. In fact, it was warm enough that most kids had their coat tied around their waist.
Like every other day, we rode to school. Only, today at recess, the temperature kept rising and we were near 50 degrees so no one wore a coat.
After school, we climbed onto the bus and prepared for the long commute home.
I noticed that many of the creeks, which were still frozen, had lots of water flowing over the tops of them and many low places in the road had standing water. All the meltwater had no place to go.
We dropped off everyone else and were nearly home when the bus driver stopped and told us we would have to walk the rest of the way. On this side of the hill, the creek had washed out the road and cars could not get across. Someone had set up a temporary footbridge so that people could cross.
We all climbed out and the bus driver walked us down to where the road had been washed out. The footbridge turned out to be a series of 2x6s and 2x8s that has been laid out across the downstream end of the culverts that had pretty much washed out.
One at a time we crossed the fifteen foot segment of washed out road. It was both thrilling and terrifying, but we all made it across safely and continued the walk home.
The bus driver lived up the road this way too, so she left the bus parked along the road so that we could get picked up there in the morning. Since we had parked on the other side of the hill, she started laughing as we walked along, nearly all of us complaining about having to walk so far.
“Well, at least you can tell your children that in your day, you had to walk uphill both ways to school,” our bus driver continued to laugh.
Our driver walked us all to the bus stop before heading back down to her house with the promise that she would contact our families about the pick up time for the next day.
As it turned out, we didn’t have school the next day because flood waters had washed out multiple bridges and repairs would take a few days to make the road safe.
But, for that one day, we can say that we walked uphill both ways, if not to school, to our bus stop; which I think counts. | [

Personal loans turn out to be a boon when one is facing the issue of huge expenses like renovation of the house, repair of the damaged air conditioner and payment of the income tax. Many online debt consolidation companies have helped people to secure simpler monthly installments with a lower rate of interest on their amount of the debt.
The first thing one must do would be to understand the kind of personal loan one can get when one has got the bad credit report like credit card debt or other consumer debt. Personal loan is unsecured, as you lacks to provide or mortgage anything with all the bank for securing this kind of loan. In order to have a personal loan for poor credit the very first requirement is to fill an application form.
A Personal loan application form requires a complete name from the applicant, social security number, annual income, pan card along with a passport for the address proof. After that, the loan (Accounts) officer decides as to how much loan has to be sanctioned even if a person is facing a bad credit in market.
If one is borrowing the individual loan then its not necessary to go through all the credit report checks. The borrowed funds is deposited into the borrower’s account within twenty-four hours. Only during time of emergencies, one can obtain cash facility. However, the exact amount that is going to be borrowed has limitations in these types of personal loans. Loan officer always assists and guides the borrower. He advises the borrower to either borrow small amounts of money or have the payment of money more than a long period, which reduces the amount of one’s monthly installments. Loan officer determines whether one has regular income or otherwise. If a person has evolved his or her job constantly then the likelihood of obtaining the personal loan becomes less.
Application process for your personal loans presented to the borrower fails to demand a formal closing. Application of the borrower contains an written application, a promissory note as well as a approach to payment. Less paper work is required in securing personal loan unlike a secured loan. Often, it is very easy to get personal loan from some private firm with less annual percentage rate then some nationalized firm. In addition, there is no limit on the amount that can be borrowed from such private firms.
In addition, some firms do not penalize for the early repayment of the borrowed amount. In India, some concession in the rate of interest is granted to the borrowers if they pay for the amount borrowed early. Even some firms usually do not penalize the borrowers even when they defer or delay the payment of the borrowed amount by a few months.
Loan is provided towards the borrowers and could be calculated in a different way. A loan calculator can be used to calculate the loan through the banks. You will find columns for Loan Amount, Annual Interest, Loan term along with a column starting with Month and Year. Full Amortization table using the options of Yes or No can be obtained. Addititionally there is the choice of display, which provides the choices of tables or plain text.

In Mortgage Calculator columns of Amount Borrowed, Annual Interest Rate and also the term or duration of loan in months is given. Furthermore, a column for desired table display is given, that has two options of monthly or yearly and it is calculated as per payment way of the firm (bank). After pressing the radio button, submission gives us the entire figure to be paid at the end of the loan term.
