Complete Story
Broadband Stimulus Gets First-Round Extension Until Aug. 20
By: Mike Farrell, Multichannel News
The two federal agencies administering the $7.2 billion broadband stimulus program have extended the deadline for the first round of grant applications to Aug. 20, in part because of heavy volume.
The initial round of the broadband programs, a $7.2 billion initiative carved out of the nearly $800 billion economic stimulus package, had set a deadline of 5 p.m. on Aug 14 for applications. The National Telecommunications and Information Administration and the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service are administering the plans. The initial round was mainly for last mile and middle mile projects in unserved and underserved areas of the country.
The NTIA is expected to dole out about $1.6 billion in funding for the first round through the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP), with the RUS awarding about $2.4 billion through the Broadband Initiatives Program (BIP). The agencies have said that up to two additional rounds of funding will commence before Sept. 30, 2010.
According to a joint statement from NTIA and RUS, over the last several days the online application system (the Easygrants System) of the programs "has experienced service delays due to the volume of activity from potential applicants." The agencies have added additional servers to address the capacity issues, but both decided it was necessary to extend the deadline for online applications "in an effort to give applicants that have already started the electronic application submission process prior to the application closing deadline an opportunity to complete the submission of those applications." The extension is only for those applicants with applications pending in the Easygrants system as of 5 p.m. on Aug. 14.
It was feared that many small cable operators (among the constituents the broadband program was created to help) were holding back on filing applications in the first round because of their concerns over some of the conditions of the stimulus.
NTIA spokesman Mark Tolbert said that heavy volume is what prompted the decision to extend the deadline. He added that the agency plans to submit its BTOP quarterly report to Congress on Aug. 17, which also should have additional details on the program's progress and a milestone schedule.
Tolbert added that the agency hasn't fully quantified the number of applications it has received so far but plans to do so in the next few days, including a breakdown of the types of applicants that are filing. Tolbert added that the NTIA also plans to post executive summaries of each application on its Web site (www.ntia.doc.gov ) in that same time frame.

Mastermind Networking Lib
A networking lib designed to be simple to use.
Ian Mallett
I made this library partially for fun, partially for pyweek, partially for utility, and partly so I would know more about networking. Networking is a lot harder than you would think, so I have spent a past week or so developing this library, which should make the tricky stuff automatically done behind the scenes.
Includes fully customizable output for server and client events.
See Docs.txt for help on making networked programs.

awsome, thanks!
Neccarus 2012-12-27 21:05:38
Lol, the chat windows look very similar to mine. I will probably check this out though, I started up my own little networking projects and am interested to see how you are handling certain things. :)
Ozminer 2013-05-02 08:56:03
Do you mind if I use this for my games networking and I will try help u I will use two versions of it 1. I want to use it to send positions and display it on another computer quite hard but I can do it 2. Reason chat for my game
Ian Mallett 2013-06-29 19:46:36
Please go ahead and use the library (that's what it's here for)! Mastermind is capable of sending arbitrary data across a network--anything stored in RAM. This means, for example, that entire Python data structures (classes, lists, dictionaries, etc.) can be sent. You should look at the included examples for guidance.
Whenever I call server.accepting_allow() it freezes the program. What am I doing wrong?
Ian Mallett 2018-10-17 02:28:53.742248`.accepting_allow()` starts a new thread to handle accepting new connections, and I can neither reproduce the problem nor see how it could occur. Did you perhaps mean `.accepting_allow_wait_forever()`, which does block the main thread (it's supposed to)? Feel free to email with a more-complete problem description.
Cokai 2015-12-01 14:01:48
Thank you a lot for this library. I love you. :D

Forever Christmas
- Christine Lynxwiler Author
- 2007 18 Dec
EDITOR'S NOTE: The following is an excerpt from Christine Lynxwiler's Forever Christmas (Barbour Publishing).
Chapter 1
Besides Jesus, I've had three real loves in my life. I married the first one, the winter we turned ten, in a Christmas wedding at the top of Snowy Mountain. In exchange for my heart, the sweet, green-eyed boy gave me a pop-top ring. But the sun came out, the snowman preacher melted, and I lost the ring in the slush. After that, my heart remained unscathed for thirteen years, a record I blew when I fell madly in love with a starving artist during my second year in law school. The ring he gave me wasn't made from a pop-top, but it might as well have been when I caught him kissing his old girlfriend the night before our wedding.
Other than a whirlwind summer romance with my best friend's brother—can you say rebound relationship?—I've never even been tempted to risk it all again. Well, technically I guess I risked it all again this year when I ditched law school and inherited a new hometown, my true true earthly love—Jingle Bells, Arkansas. Which works perfectly, because how can a town break your heart?
So at twenty-six, I'm done with runaway-bride excitement and planning my life to suit other people. I'm content to live out my days in my favorite place in the world, where the spirit of Christmas lives in our hearts all year long. Yes, that's straight off the Jingle Bells welcome sign out on the main highway. And it's corny. But true.
It's especially true here in my shop—aptly named Forever Christmas. The front is the store section,about fifteen hundred square feet of all things Christmas. But in the back, I have my workshop— just call me Santa—where I paint, sculpt a little, and make ornaments. And upstairs is the three-bedroom apartment, where my grandmother babysat me during most of my childhood. Now it's mine and filled to overflowing with happy memories. Other than wishing I could pay the bills the postman brings every day about this time, who could ask for anything more?
I sift through the mail. Everyone around here still sends out Christmas cards, so this time of year the cards tend to outnumber the bills, which is nice. Today, though, nestled amid the bright colors, a white business envelope catches my eye. It's addressed not to the shop but to me—Kristianna Harrington, Town Council Member— and the return address is Mayor Augustus Harding, City Hall.
In Jingle Bells, we conduct town business with meetings and phone calls, or even a holler down the street, but the United States Postal Service isn't normally involved. Few things are important enough to warrant a stamp. Wouldn't it be nice if Uncle Gus were officially confirming the rumor going around about a new business buying the old Banning Building out on Crystal Lake? The economy has gone downhill since the distribution center closed. Maybe this is the news we've been waiting for.
Propping my hip against the counter, I snag a snowman letter opener from my pen-and-pencil cup and rip open the letter.
Dear Town Council Members:
As you all know, Jingle Bells has been steadily losing tourist trade and employment opportunities since the distribution center closed a year ago. A new opportunity. . .blah, blah, blah. . .Online company Summer Valley Outdoors is interested in acquiring the empty Benning Building and opening their first brick-and-mortar store in our fair town.
Yep. I called that one, didn't I? An early Christmas present for Jingle Bells. "Investor surveys"… blah, blah, blah ... His letters are just like his speeches—a lot of words to say a little.
We would do well to set aside sentimentality for the sake of the people we represent and consider their petition to change the name of Jingle Bells to Summer Valley.
Change the name of Jingle Bells? I sink to the stool at my workbench and stare blindly at the words.
Please let this be an elaborate practical joke.
Another examination of the envelope reveals the mayor's official seal beside his name. No one would dare to forge that.
I spin the stool around, the letter clutched against my paint smock.
My best friend, Ami Manchester, stands in the doorway of my workshop, holding two steaming coffees. "Girl, you look terrible."
"Thanks," I mutter.
She hurries over to me. "Bad news?"
"The mail came while you were gone." I trade her the letter for one of the coffees, grateful to inhale the calming aroma.
She reads the paper, then looks up at me, her hazel eyes puzzled but reflecting none of the panic currently twisting through me. "Change the name of the town? Has Uncle Gus lost his mind? Why would he even consider such a thing?"
Mayor Augustus Harding isn't blood kin to either of us, but like most Jingle Bells natives, he might as well be. I sigh. Just like with real relatives, I know his weak spot. "Easy enough. He owns that empty building. He probably had a hard time typing this letter for the dollar signs in his eyes." Can't fight city hall. The old phrase flits through my mind and hits me like a punch.
"Well, he'll have to sell the building without changing the town name. People won't go along with a crazy plan like this." Ami calmly spoons sugar into her coffee, then holds another spoonful over my cup until I nod for her to dump it in.
"Not if I have anything to say about it." I pick up my phone, run my finger down the ragged list Scotch-taped to the wall, and punch in the number for city hall.
While it rings, Ami retrieves the half-and-half from my tiny fridge and pours creamer in our drinks, then stirs them. I'm amazed by how unrattled she is. I'm a Jingle Bells resident by way of inheritance and love. But she was born here. Where's her outrage?
She passes me my doctored coffee. "There's no way people will go for this."
I appreciate her confidence, but as the daughter of two hardball lawyers, I'm also a realist. Money talks. Jingle Bells has been hard hit by losing the Benning Distribution Center. Our unemployment rate is atrocious. People are vulnerable.
"Open Monday through Friday," I growl the message aloud and push the Off button. "Why did I think he'd be there on a Saturday?"
I give the list on the wall another quick scan. Next to the city hall number, I find the words Augustus Mobile with a local cell number scribbled beside them in Gran's handwriting. With any luck, he still has the same number. Things change slowly around here.
I glance at the hateful letter lying on top of some half-finished Christmas ornaments. The call goes to voice mail, and I slam the phone down. "Let's go."
"To deal with Uncle Gus."
"You going to make him an offer he can't refuse?" Ami says in her best raspy mobster voice.
"Hey, if the concrete shoe fits ... " I reach for my coat. "Seriously, come on."
"Kristianna, wait." Her voice is soft, but I spin around. "You know this whole name-change thing isn't going to come to anything. Why don't you just wait until Monday? We've got some wedding favors to finish."
"I'll get the favors done. But we have to take care of this." Tears prick my eyelids, but if I've learned one thing from my parents, it's that crying is a weakness. I blink hard. "Now."
She shakes her head. "This is Jingle Bells. It's always been Jingle Bells. It's always going to be Jingle Bells."
When she says that, I feel so stupid. Surely she's right. I raise my shoulders and relax them to try to stop the jitters that are coursing through me. "Maybe so."
"Definitely so." She pushes my cup toward me. "You're just in a no-caffeine haze."
I offer a wobbly grin and take a sip of my coffee. Definitely the best part of waking up today. "Okay, for now the ornaments. Later, Uncle Gus is going down." I sigh and retrieve a snowpeople bride-and-groom ornament from the counter." What do you think?"
Ami grins, a perfect white smile. A bride smile. "I think you're going to a lot of trouble for me. They're beautiful."
"You know I love doing it. Passing out ornaments to all your wedding guests is such a cool idea." With my paintbrush, I start shading in the details, determined to ignore the uneasiness inside me.
"Way cooler since you're hand making them. Everyone in town will show up for the ceremony just to get a Kristianna original. Especially since you'll be in the wedding party ..."
Is that doubt I hear? Just because I can't make it down the aisle for my own weddings doesn't mean I'll do something stupid at hers. Does it? "You don't have to butter me up. I already told you I'd make as many as you need." I pause and meet her gaze. "And you know I'll be there."
"Yeah, I know. So what's up with the mistletoe back here?" Ami points toward the little green sprig above the counter.
I laugh. "It's not Christmas without mistletoe, but since no one ever comes back here, I figure I'm pretty safe."
She smiles. "I should have known. You and your relationship safety nets." She ducks her head and touches the back of her hair in a way I recognize.
Something in her tone makes me set the ornament on the work counter. "Yeah?"
"Are you sure you're okay with being my maid of honor?" Her eyes bore through me with the penetrating power of Superman's X-ray vision.
How many more times will we go over this? "Yep." I retrieve the ornament and start painting again.
She snatches a stool from the counter and perches beside me. "You still having … the Dream?"
Sigh. So much for her taking the hint. Ever since I caught my first fiancé kissing his ex-girlfriend at the wedding rehearsal, I've had the Dream at least once a month. It didn't go away even when I was engaged briefly to Ami's older brother, Nathan. And it's been more frequent since we mutually broke off our obvious—to everyone but us—rebound engagement. One day, in a weak moment, I told Ami about the Dream—how everything seems perfect until I get halfway to the front of the church; then I turn and sprint back down the aisle. I always wake up out of breath and shaking. And I just had it again a couple of nights ago. "Why yes, Dr. Phil, I am. But I'm ignoring it."
She gives me her best Dr. Phil grin. "And how's that working for you?"
I pretend to spill my coffee on her, but she doesn't even move. "Fine. It's working just fine for me."
She holds up her hands. "Okay, subject dropped. Other than worrying about the Dream, do you really want to be in the wedding?"
"Who else is going to be your maid of honor? Garrett?" The three of us have been best friends since early childhood. But I picture six-foot-two, former-football-player Garrett holding a bouquet and smiling. "Mark's already claimed him as the best man. Besides, he'd look pretty funny in that gorgeous green dress. It would match his eyes perfectly, wouldn't it?"
She gives me the look—the one she uses on her third graders when she wants the truth and she wants it now.
Am I dreading standing by my best friend as she marries the man she loves? No way. Does my crazy recurring dream have me a little paranoid about messing up Ami's wedding? Um, yeah. Is there a small part of me that wishes I was the bride walking down the holly-lined aisle, without reservation, to meet my perfect guy? Oh, come on, I'm human.
But Ami is way more important than silly jealousy or irrational fear. "Are you kidding? We're Lucy and Ethel, Monica and Rachel, Thelma and Louise." When will I ever learn to stop the analogies while I'm ahead? "Okay, forget Thelma and Louise. But do you really think I'd let you get married without me by your side?"
Ami drains her coffee. "You've always wanted a Christmas wedding, though. I could have waited until June."
I carefully place the snowcouple on the counter and look at her sparkling eyes. "Yeah, right. The wedding's just a week away, and with every breath you're wishing you were married already."
Her cheeks turn pink. "It's that obvious?"
Only if you're not blind. "Maybe just a little. I've had my chance, Ami. This is your moment."
"You know, now that Garrett's moved back, the two of you might—"
I put my finger to her lips. "Shh. Every few years, you come up with this crazy theory."
"You did marry him once." Ami raises her chin stubbornly.
"We were ten. I hardly think that qualifies for a successful trip down the aisle. Besides, Garrett and I are best friends. Just like you and me. I'm not desperate." Well, not desperate to get married, anyway. If people saw my bank account, they might see why I'm a little desperate about the whole town issue. "If you don't drop this subject, I'll paint a mustache on every snowbride and Garrett can be your maid of honor."
"I just think—"
I raise my paintbrush toward the ornament, and Ami fakes a flinch, then sighs. "Look at the bright side, when you do find the perfect man, you already have a dress."
My wince is not fake. "Two dresses, if we're counting." Although as soon as Garrett shows me how to do more than just buy on eBay, I plan to rectify that. "With my track record, I'd better quit while I'm ahead. Two broken engagements make me quirky. Three would cross over to pathetic." Some things in life I can't do anything about. But in spite of what Ami says, I intend to fix the things I can. I push to my feet and yank off my paint smock. "Let's go."
I wave to the ornaments. "I'll work around the clock on these, but I have to get this settled today. Right now. Please go with me."
She looks like she wants to argue, but I guess she sees something in my expression that convinces her it's hopeless.
She sighs. "Okay, I'm in. We're off to beard the lion in his den."
I give her a quick hug. "Thanks." I grab my jacket off its hook and toss Ami's to her. "He's not in the office. But that doesn't mean he's untouchable."
"You're going to his house?"
"We're going to his house." I push against the double doors that open from my workshop into the store and holler toward the back corner. "Sarah!"
"Yes?" In her midforties, Sarah's a quietly serious woman who has an amazing talent with fabric. Gran rented a corner of Forever Christmas to Sarah for her quilting years ago, and since I'm not an idiot who wants to change things that don't need changing, I kept the arrangement when I became the new proprietor. When she's out, I sell her quilts for her. When I need to be gone, she minds the store for me. It works for both of us.
"I need to go out for a while. Will you watch the store?"
"Is it going to do tricks?"
"Was that a joke?" I mouth to Ami.
"I think so," she mouths back.
"That was a joke," Sarah calls in a wry voice. "I'm a little rusty but thought I'd give it a try."
I laugh. "I like it!"
"I'll be glad to mind the store."
I drag Ami out of the shop and into the cold air. Gray clouds hang low in the sky today, matching my mood perfectly.
As we walk down the sidewalk, I point at the shop we're passing. "Just think, Blizzard Barbecue would probably have to change to Sandcastle Sandwiches."
Ami gives me a puzzled look.
"If this stupid name change goes through. What do you think they'd call Reindeer Games and Toy Store?" I shake my head. That's such a cool name."
She sighs.
"Wouldn't you hate for it to become Fun in the Sun Toys?"
"That would be awful."
"Are you being sarcastic? Look over there. I don't even want to think about what Snow Place Like Home Pet Boarding would be renamed. But I bet it wouldn't be pretty."
Ami smiles. "Actually I've always wondered about that name. Doesn't it kind of indicate that you should keep your dog at home instead of leaving it in their kennel?"
I shake my head. "You're missing the principle."
"Because I really don't see this as a possibility."
"Just the idea of it should terrify you."
She doesn't look terrified, but I keep up a running commentary, unable to stop imagining the horrors that would come with the name Summer Valley.
I don't shut up until we stand in front of the huge white manor. Each of the four columns is as big around as a good-sized tree. Beautifully filigreed lattice borders the second-story balcony. It feels like we've been transported back to the days of hoopskirts and lemonade on the porch.
"Does the town own this place, or is it personal property?" Ami whispers.
"I'm not really sure. Uncle Gus has been the mayor ever since I can remember. And his daddy was the mayor before him."
"Your drawl seems thicker here."
I nod. "Yours, too."
"I never noticed how huge the house is," Ami says, still whispering. "Remember those watercolor paintings you did of the mansion and the grounds when you were first learning to paint?"
I nod. I still have them in the back of my closet, to be honest.
"You used to want to be married here."
"I had good taste." A new flare of anger raises my voice to normal and gets me back in the real world. "And Uncle Gus should be ashamed. Willing to sell out his heritage—our heritage." I grab her arm. "C'mon."
At the front door, I bypass the doorbell button and grab the handle on the lion's head door knocker, happy to bang it against the door several times. Somehow the loud, hollow knocking suits my mood more than a delicate chime.
Inside the house, we hear a familiar male voice yell, "Where's my jacket?"
"The lion is in his den," I murmur.
A minute later, Mrs. Harding opens the door. "Can I help you?" For every ounce that Uncle Gus is a "good ol' boy," Mrs. Harding is "high society." I always thought the phrase "looking down her nose" was just an expression, but she really does it, her beady eyes glinting.
I give her my own glare. "We need to see the mayor."
"I'm sorry, but he's not here," she says, beginning to close the door.

My Favorite Dancer on A Chance to Dance – Laura Gruener
In case some of you missed my tweet about Laura Gruener, I'm absolutely in love with her dancing and personality and can't wait to see her dance in the finale of Chance to Dance tonight. If you've missed the previous episodes of Chance to Dance, you can still stream them on Facebook for really cheap. It's well worth the investment and you can watch all the episodes commercial free.
I think you have to see the whole series to know why I just adore Laura. From what I can tell she's a real sweetheart that's incredibly sincere. I think the picture below does a great job capturing the special, natural happiness that she has:
I also did a little searching online to try and find out more about Laura before she was on Chance to Dance. I found a few pictures of her including one when she must have been 11 years old in some ballet company:
Even better is that I found a couple YouTube videos of Laura Gruener dancing at the PA School of Performing Arts. I think you'll enjoy the videos of her dancing:
Now I'd really love to see her audition for So You Think You Can Dance. I'd love to see her do other genres. Either way, I look forward to seeing her dance tonight in the finale of A Chance to Dance.

The mentally ill vs. those who love them
By Christine M. Flowers
http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | (MCT) I once knew someone, many years ago, who was sent to a "rest home" by her aggravated husband. Today, you and I would call that "involuntary commitment," and the fellow was able to do it with relative ease because he was an important person, knew the right people, and the laws were on his side. This was a time, the 1970s, when a woman couldn't even be raped by her husband in a number of states and teenagers could be "grounded" all the way to the psychiatric hospital. It was a time when horrific places like Pennhurst were still operating, and anyone who grew up in the Philadelphia area knows what I'm talking about. More dungeon of horrors than medical facility, Dante himself couldn't have conjured up something as infernal as this "hospital" where the patients were chained to their beds and starved for days on end.
All of this is to show that I am not insensitive to the plight of the mentally ill. I have had people in my own circle who have dealt with the problem, a serious and heartbreaking one. Until recently, the laws were weighted far too heavily against the afflicted. You'll forgive the pun, but a mere generation ago the general rule seemed to be "out of mind, out of sight." It was preferable to hide the people with invisible yet debilitating wounds instead of treating them compassionately.
But as with most things, the corrective pendulum has swung too far in the opposite direction. With the ACLU at the head of the charge, civil rights activists have caused a sea change in the way that we deal with the mentally ill. Too often, while understandably focusing on the rights and needs of the patients, we ignore the people who live with and love them. We lose sight of the pain and damage an unbalanced person can cause in the lives of his family and friends. Yes, we've abandoned as archaic laws that used to allow involuntary commitment for subjective reasons, and once-accepted practices like lobotomy and electro-shock therapies would now be barred by the International Convention Against Torture.
These are good things.
What is not good, however, is the fact that civil rights now trump public safety when it comes to those who are potentially violent. The laws generally allow you to commit someone against their will if they have proven to be a danger to themselves or to others, which essentially means that someone has to take a steak knife to your throat or put the kitty in the microwave before they can be admitted against their will. These ex-post-facto determinations are never adequate when dealing with a diseased mind. It is ridiculous to have to wait until someone actually commits a crime before minimizing the chances that they will be able to wreak mayhem, as Adam Lanza did on a cold December morning in Connecticut.
Of course, that doesn't sit well with the activists. In a recent column on Newtown I criticized the ACLU for their campaign on behalf of the "fabricated right to be a public danger." Not surprisingly, the civil libertarians came out in full force, attacking my insensitivity to the "rights of the disabled." One acquaintance sent me an email that dripped with sarcasm and naivete when she wrote, "Really? You think the ACLU invented the rights of the disabled? ... I often disagree with your positions, as you know, but this was a purely gratuitous slam at the ACLU, which I think disgusting from any quarter, but more so from a person who claims to be thoughtful."
Personally, what I find much more disgusting than any "gratuitous slam" at an organization that prides itself on addressing "rights" is the way that the ACLU and other such groups set up obstacles to families desperate for a way to help their diseased and troubled loved ones. The ACLU is impervious to their rights, and it is quite possible that Nancy Lanza ran into one of those obstacles in Connecticut. The ACLU chapter in that state actively opposed a law which would have made it easier for Connecticut to institutionalize or even treat on an outpatient basis a mentally ill patient if it had enough evidence to believe that the person was dangerous.
The ACLU said that the bill would "infringe on patients' privacy rights." And so, it went down to defeat months before Adam Lanza went on his rampage.
This is not to say that we need to return to the days of Pennhurst. It is not a call for mass institutionalization of the quirky-but-harmless. As a noted psychiatrist wrote in the New York Times this week, the vast majority of the mentally ill are not dangerous, although they are disproportionately represented among those who commit violent crimes.
This is simply a plea to recognize how far the pendulum has swung in favor of those who think that murdered kindergartners is a fair price to pay for personal liberty.

The President has power to call special meetings of the Faculty and has a duty to call such meetings at the written request of no fewer than eight of the members of the Faculty.
The concurrence of the President is necessary to all acts and resolutions of the Faculty, unless, after on-concurrence, the act or resolution shall again be passed by a two-thirds vote of the Faculty, a quorum being present, at the same or at the next succeeding meeting thereof. In all cases where there shall be a non-concurrence between the President and a majority of the Faculty present at the time, the names of those voting on each side of the question shall be entered in the minutes, and each member shall be entitled to have entered in the minutes the reason for his or her vote.

New mixer guide
In the complex process of mixing for wastewater treatment, small errors make a big difference. But making a useful handbook for stakeholders is a balancing act.
"You must avoid the pitfalls of oversimplifying on the one hand and showing off on the other. A handbook is only a handbook if it ads real value," says Christian Schou, Application Manager at Grundfos.
He is part of the group behind a new Grundfos handbook, "Design Recommendations for Mixing." The wastewater experts have translated years of accumulated knowledge and complex mathematical formulas into user-friendly rules and guidelines.
"This handbook was written for everyone working with installation and optimisation of wastewater treatment plants. Not just the scholars. In a very straightforward way, it provides the insights you need to choose the right mixer and position it correctly in your specific tank. To my knowledge, this has never been done before," he says.
Triple threat
In modern wastewater treatment, proper mixing is paramount and faulty installation of mixing equipment can be very bad for business.
"If you do not add enough thrust force to the tank dead zones occur and solid particles start to settle. This prevents you from utilizing the full potential of the tank, effectively reducing the speed at which you process. On top of this, the risk of vibrations increases, which might lead to mechanical overload and damage to both motor and shaft," says Christian Schou.
"Also, you have to consider the energy factor. If the mixer is incorrectly installed, it will not operate to its full potential. And then you can add increased energy bills to your rising service costs. With the handbook, we can help our customers minimise all three risk factors."
User-friendly optimisation
Grundfos designed the handbook for all stakeholders in the business – from plant managers and personnel to contractors and specifiers. It is both a diagnostic tool and a manual for new-build as well as refurbishment projects.
"Say you have a system with four mixers, one of which experiences frequent breakdowns. With the mixer handbook, you can go through the installation, sort of like a checklist, to find out what is causing the damage. You can also use it to quality check the blueprints from a contractor. Or simply to brush up on your knowledge," Christian Schou explains.
By combining theory and practical examples, the handbook takes the reader through the basics of mixing and provides guidelines for installing, measuring and optimising performance. It also introduces the readers to the world of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), an advanced simulation model that Grundfos applies when optimizing sustainable solutions to complex applications.
"We have put a lot of effort into the models, validating their predictions in our labs and in the real world. With the CFD models, we are able to offer our customers precise positioning of their mixers in cases where the handbook alone does not suffice," Christian Schou explains.
This handbook was written for everyone working with installation and optimisation of wastewater treatment plants. Not just the scholars
Christian Schou, Grundfos Application Manager
Knowledge at your doorstep
In order for a handbook to add value, it has to be user-friendly, operational, and, of course, easy to get one's hands on. That is why Grundfos offers the handbook free of charge to everyone with an interest in the subject.
"Optimisation is at the heart of what we do, and it's what we encourage our customers to do," says Christian Schou. "We hope this handbook will make it a little easier for wastewater treatment professionals to design and maintain the most cost-efficient, energy-efficient systems possible."

Liver Cleansing Diet Menu
A liver cleansing diet menu revives your liver the natural way!
The difference between a liver cleanse and a full-body cleanse may not be easy to detect. While both rely on natural, whole foods, a liver cleanse uses certain ingredients and herbs which are known to benefit and clear out the liver. The goal is to cleanse and heal your liver from the thousands of toxins your body encounters every day!
Your liver works very hard. Hopefully, you are already aware of this organ's important role in keeping your whole body healthy and detoxed. It plays a huge part in filtering and removing toxins from your body and blood before they cause harm. Unfortunately, these days, most of us are asking too much of our livers. As we continually eat poor diets, forgo exercise, and take in excessive alcoholic and sugary beverages, we tax and tax our livers to the point of overload. And, let's face it: Most of us don't drink enough water, either.
So, what do you think happens when your liver is overwhelmed by toxins? It makes perfect sense that it stops doing its job. Instead of pulling toxins away from your blood stream, it may start leaking them in. If you experience moodiness, chronic fatigue, acne, psoriasis, or other skin problems, your liver is the likely culprit. The best news is that you can do something about it.
While many health professionals will have you take drugs, hormones, or expensive medications to combat some skin conditions, these are almost never necessary. You can cleanse your liver and improve your skin and your health with nothing but whole, natural foods. All you need is fresh, raw ingredients, and a commitment to see it through until your liver is better than ever. My incredible liver cleanse lasts 30 days. That means just 30 days until you see all of your toxic liver symptoms disappear entirely. The best part is most of your ailments will be gone even sooner!
The liver cleansing diet menu helps you take control of your daily eating habits!
Chances are, if you know you need a liver cleanse, you already know why. In fact, the moment you actually start to be honest with yourself and admit your eating and drinking habits could use some work, you are ready to begin a cleanse. It is not that hard. Like I said before, your liver is ready and willing to filter away toxins. Whatever may be hindering it can be gotten rid of the moment you stop eating liver-stressing foods, and start giving your body the healthy, cleansing ingredients it needs.
My meaning is simple: Some foods harm and some heal. Healing foods, which contain vitamins, antioxidants, astringent or anti-parastic properties, and promote cell renewal, will naturally cleanse your liver. Other substances, like caffeine, dairy, refined flour, pesticides, or food additives, will make your liver stress more. To cleanse, all you need to do is eat more liver supporting foods, like berries, melon, and garlic or ginger, and stop consuming the things that are overloading this vital organ.
Yes, in truth, it is easier said than done, but if you want to feel and look healthy, you need a healthy liver. You must give up alcohol and other refined sugars, and start eating leafy greens, like kale, which help heal and renew liver cells. This cleanse helps you find a way to let go of poor eating habits and start focusing on ingesting the things that benefit you the most.
The advantages of a healthy liver are numerous: More energy, better skin, clearer eyes, and more mental alertness are just a few. You also get better digestion and elimination, which makes your metabolism faster. For every favorite, refined food you temporarily give up while you cleanse, you get one great benefit. This becomes more true when you let a liver cleanse lead you into a holistic, full-body cleanse. If you are ready for a better, healthier, more rewarding lifestyle, let go of those refined foods in favor of better health and increased energy.
A liver cleanse diet menu is the perfect place to start!
This simple menu will give you plenty of foods to choose from, while also creating a daily eating cycle that helps your liver renew itself. While a full body cleanse and a liver cleanse are different, when you help your liver, you are really helping your entire body. Here are a few examples of what you can eat on a liver cleanse:
Breakfast foods:
Fresh berries, such as raspberries, blackberries, kiwi, blueberries, or strawberries
Honey dew melon, papaya, or cantaloupe
Hot water with ¼ fresh squeezed lemon
Blended orange/carrot smoothie
Berry smoothie
Any raw fruit except for bananas
Snack foods:
Any dark, leafy green, especially kale, spinach or broccoli, raw
Decaffeinated liver detox tea or herbal tea
1 small avocado
2 chopped, peeled carrots
Pumpkin seeds
Lunch foods:
Carrot, parsley, apple smoothie
Spinach and basil salad with olive oil, sea salt, and lemon juice
Any fresh, raw vegetable
Raw artichoke (yes, you can eat artichoke raw. It is very much like eating a cooked one, and very good for you.)
Healthy Dinners:
Chicken breast
Lightly steamed vegetables, like broccoli, bell pepper, carrots, cauliflower
Lightly steamed kale with salt and pepper
A combination of these foods!
Remember: During a liver cleanse, it is key to drink plenty of healthy, cleansing liquids. Caffeinated beverages strain your liver and dehydrate your body. They are best avoided, as are sugary drinks, like soda, bottled juice, and sports drinks. By skipping these and taking in herbal teas, liver support teas, and a lot of fresh, cool water instead, you will help your body flush toxins much faster. You can also benefit from adding a fresh slice of lemon to your water for a boost of antioxidants and vitamin C. Believe me, you have nothing to lose. For a full, 30 day liver cleanse diet menu, a full body detox diet plan, and professional support, try the Total Wellness Cleanse today!

- Incident
SSS: Person under Mukhtar pseudonym accused of terrorism extradited to Azerbaijan - PHOTO
The complex measures are being continued by the State Security Service in the area of timely detection and prevention of threats directed to national security interests of the Republic of Azerbaijan and terrorist and provocative and other sabotage activity, as well as fight against international terrorism, APA reports citing SSS.
Based on the collected materials about the choosing of citizens of the Republic of Azerbaijan under the supervision of foreign secretive agencies and the involvement of the former in implementation of military training beyond the country's boundaries through inculcation into them of radical and extremist religious ideas, and their involvement in military operations on the territory of other states under various names hiding their identities, the investigative and operational measures are being implemented currently under the criminal case initiated on grounds of relevant clauses of the Criminal Court of the Republic of Azerbaijan.
As a result of the investigations, the grounded suspicions have been determined regarding the receiving of training by the citizen of the Republic of Azerbaijan Shukurov Mehdi Aflatun in the methods of committing of criminal terrorist acts, and preparedness for use of fire arms, explosive substances and devices, as well as other generally dangerous methods and technical facilities in order to violate public security, create panic among people, and to exert influence on making of decisions by state authorities or international organizations, and his participation in activity of the illegal armed unit established in order to commit grave and especially grave crimes beyond the country's boundaries under the pseudonym of Mukhtar.
Mehdi Shukurov was charged under Articles 12.3,214-3.1 (training outside the Republic of Azerbaijan for terrorist purposes) and 12.1,279.1 (participation in the activities of armed groups outside the Republic of Azerbaijan) of the Criminal Code of The Republic of Azerbaijan, the court issued an arrest warrant on him and he was declared internationally wanted person.
The place where Mehdi Shukurov was hiding after crossing into the territory of the Russian Federation was identified, he was detained as part of a mutual legal assistance procedure on an international search and extradited to the Republic of Azerbaijan on July 28, 2020.
Currently, an investigation over criminal case is underway.

Spurgeon at the Metropolitan Tabernacle: 365 Sermons
'Whereas the Lord was there.' Ezekiel 35:10
Suggested Further Reading: Jeremiah 17:5–13
Old Adam has given you many a grip in the side, as though he would tear the heart out of you, but you have held on your way despite all that he could do. How is this? Why, God was in you, and if he had not been there, then indeed you would have been a prey unto your adversaries. I went last week into the lighthouse at Holyhead and marked the lights that warn the mariner crossing the sea, or guide him in time of storm into the haven. I noticed in the second storey of the lighthouse many large vats filled with oil laid up in store that the lamps might be constantly trimmed for months to come, and I compared that in my own mind to that gracious provision of divine grace which the Lord lays up in store for his people. The lamps would go out but Jehovah-shammah, the Lord is there—we have the all-sufficiency of God laying up a store of oil, that our lights may be always trimmed. A Christian is something like an express train. On some of our railroads you know there are express trains which do not stop to take water; the water lies in a trench in the middle between the rails, and as the train runs it sucks up its own supply of cold water, and so continues its course without a pause. Our God in grace has forestalled our needs; he prepares supplies for his own people, so that without their stopping to seek the streams of creature confidence, sometimes without the use of means, he is pleased to speed them on their pathway towards heaven, fed by a divine arrangement of grace. O it is blessed to think that if God be there, everything a Christian can want for his final persevering, for his eternal life, is ready at hand.
For meditation: The Lord was there with his people in the wilderness and sustained them for forty years (Nehemiah 9:19–21). He can still meet every need that his people face today (Philippians 4:19). Paul had proved that God's grace and strength were sufficient for him (2 Corinthians 12:9; Philippians 4:13).
Sermon no. 536
25 October (1863)

Who wants to watch a show about Space Vampires? (Who may or may not be constantly naked this time?)
Deadline is repoting that Ringleader Studios has purchased rights to adapt Colin Wilson's 1976 novel The Space Vampires for television. Yes, the SAME story that was adapted into the 1985 flick Lifeforce. The series will also be titled Lifeforce and (because this is some weird, new rule all TV shows and movies have to abide by now) will come out with a companion graphic novel and video game.
It you're unfamiliar with the original film the plot is fairly simple: "A group of astronauts discover a derelict spaceship and return to Earth with three humanoid aliens that unleash a life-sucking plague upon humanity." Space Vampires, aw yeah.

Makes about 3 cups.
2 cups sweet paprika
1 tablespoon aji chile powder
3 tablespoons cracked black pepper
5 tablespoons minced dried garlic
3 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons red chile powder
4 tablespoons kosher salt
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients. Apply to steak before grilling.
Makes about 1 cup.
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 green onions, chopped
½ cup minced white onion
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sugar
½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon cayenne powder
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
1 tablespoon arbol chile flakes
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients. Use as a marinade with any meat or chicken.
Makes 4 servings.
3 shallots, peeled and thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced
Salt and freshly ground pepper
¼ cup plus 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar½ cup white wine
1 pound fresh or frozen peas
8 ounces sushi-grade tuna steaks, cut into 1-inch cubes
½ cup Wondra flour
2 jalapeños, finely chopped
4 sprigs mint, finely chopped
1 lime, quartered
Place the shallot and garlic in a large frying pan with ¼ cup slightly salted olive oil. Fry gently until soft and add the vinegar and sugar. Cook down the liquid until you have 1 tablespoon left. Add the wine and cook for a couple of minutes, then add the peas and simmer 5 minutes until you have a thick stew.
Meanwhile, in a separate pan, heat 4 tablespoons olive oil until smoking. Dredge tuna in flour, add tuna to pan and brown on all sides, add the pea mixture and jalapeños. Season with salt and pepper. Add the mint to the pan and toss to incorporate with the pea mixture. Serve warm or at room temperature with a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lime.
From Marcus Samuelsson; makes about 1 1/2 cups.
1 English cucumber
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
1 cup sugar
1 bay leaf
2 allspice berries
Slice the cucumber as thinly as possible; use a mandoline or other vegetable slicer if you have one. Put the slices in a colander, toss them with the salt, and let stand for about 30 minutes over a bowl.
Meanwhile, combine the water, vinegar, sugar, bay leaf and allspice in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and let cool.
Rinse the salt off the cucumbers and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. Put the cucumbers in a medium bowl and add the pickling solution; they should be completely covered by the brine. Cover and refrigerate for 3 to 6 hours before serving.
Give yourself two days to make this recipe. The marinade needs to infuse for 12 hours, and the oysters marinate for 6. Makes 24 servings.
1 1/2 cups canola oil
6 garlic cloves, crushed
1 cup sherry vinegar
2 thyme sprigs
2 bay leaves
1 rosemary sprig
1 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika, plus more for garnish
24 oysters, shucked
1/4 cup finely diced carrots
1/4 cup finely diced onions
1/4 cup finely diced celery
1 tablespoon olive oil
Sea salt, for garnish
Microgreens, for serving
Make the marinade: Combine canola oil and garlic in a large pot. Heat over medium-high heat. When the garlic begins to brown and oil begins boiling, remove from heat. Add the vinegar, herbs and paprika. Season with salt. Allow to infuse for 12 hours, then strain.
Cover the oysters with marinade and allow to marinate for at least 6 hours in the refrigerator.
Place vegetables in a sauté pan, add olive oil and cook gently over low heat until softened but not browned.
Transfer vegetables to a bowl. Top with oysters, arranged side by side. Drizzle marinade on top. Garnish with sweet paprika and sea salt. Top with microgreens.
From Marcus Samuelsson's grandmother Helga. Makes 4-6 servings.
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium red onion, finely chopped
1/2 pound ground beef (chuck or sirloin)
1/2 pound ground veal
1/2 pound ground pork
2 tablespoons honey
1 large egg
Kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup lingonberry preserves (or other berry preserves)
2 tablespoons pickle juice
Kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
Garnish with lingonberries (or the same berries used in the sauce) and quick-pickled cucumbers (see recipe above.)
Make the meatballs. Combine the bread crumbs and heavy cream in a small bowl. Stir in with a fork until all the crumbs are moistened. Set aside.
Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened. Remove from the heat.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, veal, pork, the cooked onion, honey and egg, and mix well with your hands. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add the bread crumb-cream mixture and mix well. With wet hands (to keep the mixture from sticking) shape the mixture into meatballs the size of a golf ball, placing them on a plate lightly moistened with water. You should have about 24 meatballs.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the meatballs, in batches if necessary, and cook, turning frequently, for about 7 minutes, until browned on all sides and cooked through. Transfer the meatballs to a plate, and discard all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet.
Make the sauce. Return the skillet to the heat, whisk in the stock, cream, preserves and pickle juice, and bring to a simmer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the meatballs to the sauce, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly and the meatballs are heated through. Top with lingonberries (or the berries used in the sauce) and quick-pickled cucumbers.

Fed's Bullard Explains Dissent
St. Louis Fed President James Bullard offered reasoning behind his dissenting vote at the FOMC's policy meeting, saying the Federal Reserve should have waited for more signs of economic strength. David Wessel explains.

... ay ay mm mm ... all ... the MoneyBeat show we all know that the market didn't exactly like what ... the Fed chairman Ben burn Anqi this week earlier ... one of his key lieutenants also wasn't quite so please Oakley said ... the state will look at the St Louis Fed President James Bullard in a statement it was one of the two dissenters in the meeting ... this is what he think about later on the website of the St Louis Fed website ... the more prudent approach would be the way for more tangible signs ... that the economy was strengthening ... and inflation was on a path to return for Target ... that is way said what exactly does it mean how important is that they actually came out made the state is unusual Art Economics ... Editor David Wessel joins us to talk about this one ... I'd David how unusual was it for one of these dissenters to cut come out with their own statement ... well everything is unusual in that that these days any Jim Bollard the same offence president formally dissented from the statement at the meeting ... and today he basically formally dissented from the press conference that followed the me ... what usually happens is the dissenters noted in a statement ... then the explanation doesn't come for three weeks until the Mets are out ... but Mr bowler obviously felt very strongly and I suspect the markets ... plunge has reinforced his view that the Fed ... had made a big mistake this week Brock loves talk about what he said per second ... underscoring the about waiting for more signs of tangible book that miracles ... tangible economic growth ... did ... you see making a strong pointer a lot of people came out and said you know the Fed's usual too optimistic to begin with ... ah how tangible word Bullard's comments ... well I think ... I think what he said was he was just a bad his website at six am this morning and basically he says three things one is ... K guys inflation is law ... our target is two percent inflation is closer to one percent why are we talking about turning off ... the QE stake it now ... secondly he said our forecast for this year is worse than it was up three months ago if the economy isn't getting better and our outlook isn't getting better while returning this second ... and third he didn't like the idea that the Fed chairman ... in his press conference game at Timeline ... later this year we will do this ... he thinks that the Fed should only say ... we will turn the steak and a credit we will pare back quantitative easing when the economy reaches certain points let's not tied to the calendar let's tied to the economic indicators ... inflation is really interesting because he's been very it's very low obvious in some places overseas team ... to serve disinflationary trends ... I how much of a sort of ... how how big a sign of what's going on in the economy ... is that inflationary trend right now David ... I think it's really important to the day ... remember that the Fed added and that goes across the spectrum thinks that it's made its job is largely to create price stability ... for most of my lifetime ... that has referred to getting inflation down to a point where we were at something approaching stable prices ... but for the last several years ... we've been had I not balances cares about deflation falling prices ... Japan has taught us that once you get a CD for nation ... it's a little scary and it's hard to get out ... I think Jim bowler who comes from the ... St Louis Fed which has long been a bastion of mining tourism ... to saying hey if we're serious about avoiding the inflation ... if we're serious about keeping prices from going the inflation rate from going too low ... why are we sounding the alarm bell now why isn't this as bad as it would be if inflation were one point above our target ... I don't think it's a real indicator of how bad the economy is or how good the economy is ... but it's something that the Fed watches closely and Mr. Rene Kyi emphasize that in a press conference ... he said look we're watching this and if inflation or more portly expectations of future inflation don't start to move up our two percent target for to tear up this plan ... to stare back your quantitative easing in the in the end of this year ...

The rotating part of the seal is fixed on the pump shaft and rotates in the liquid during pump operation.
The rotating part of the seal is fixed on the pump shaft and rotates in the liquid during pump operation. The compression of the rubber bellows (8) between the shaft (9) and one of the two torque transmission rings (10) fixes the rotating part to the shaft. The spring (6) transfers the torque between the torque transmission rings (5, 10). The rotating seal ring (4) is mounted together with the rubber bellows (8). The torque transmission ring (5) compresses the rubber bellows (8) to the rotating seal ring (4). The rubber bellows prevents leakage between the shaft (9) and rotating seal ring (4) and ensures axial flexibility despite contamination and deposits. In a rubber bellows seal, axial flexibility is obtained by elastic deformation of the bellows. In an O-ring seal, however, the O-ring slides along the shaft. The compression force from the spring keeps the two seal faces together during pump standstill and operation thanks to the flexibility of the bellows or O-ring. This flexibility also keeps the seal faces together, despite axial movements of the shaft, surface wear, and shaft run out.

What to Do When You Add Too Much Spice
It happens to the best of us. You get a little too excited about adding cayenne powder to your chili to bump up the heat and uh oh—you've gone too far. What was supposed to be a simple kick of zest has now turned into too much of a mouth-burning fire. The entire dish doesn't need to be bound for the trash.
Here are a few ways to remedy the situation.
- Depending on what the dish is, use other ingredients to tone down the heat. If it's a soup, add more broth or stock. Stir in more rice into a stir-fry or canned tomatoes/ beans into a chili.
- Dairy combats heat in your mouth, so also turn to it when trying to bring down the spice of a dish. Whether it's milk, sour cream, or yogurt, incorporate as much of it as you can until the spice has calmed down.
- Some people swear nut butters are able to cut through the excess heat of a dish. If it's appropriate for the dish, try stirring in a couple tablespoons of peanut butter, almond butter, tahini, etc.
- Acid can cut through the heat. Use vinegars, lemon juice, lime juice—whatever you can find that is acidic and won't tamper with the other flavors of the entrée.
- A spoonful of sugar can also go a long way in neutralizing the spice. Proceed with caution, so you don't end up with a massively sweet product. Sugar may be used best in combination with acid.
What have you found to work when you've gone overboard with spice?
