In a study that sounds almost too bizarre to be true, a group of researchers at Zheijang University in Zhejiang Sheng, China, reported a breakthrough in Brain Machine Interfaces. The researchers implanted micro-electrodes to the rat's brain, and had a human hook up to a computer. The human was then able to mind control the rat by thinking about moving their left arm, which caused the rat to turn left in the maze, detailed The Sun. This was possible because the computer would send the signal between the human to the rat.
While the rat had an electrode attached to their brain, the humans didn't have to deal with any invasive technology to get hooked up to the computer, according to Discover Magazine.
"The results showed that rat cyborgs could be smoothly and successfully navigated by the human mind to complete a navigation task in a complex maze. Our experiments indicated that the cooperation through transmitting multidimensional information between two brains by computer-assisted brain-machine interfaces is promising."
At this point, it's unclear whether there are any health risks to the rat having implants on their brain, or what the scientists' goals are in the long run in developing this technology.
"The holy grail of BBI would be sharing rich content that cannot be better expressed in words, such as emotions and feelings. We are still so far from that, but, of course, that would be the dream," the University of Washington's Andrea Stocco explained.
And here I was thinking "Rat Cyborg" was an 80's punk rock band with a bit of vision.https://t.co/hxpNyimjsw— Derek M. Hansen (@DerekMHansen) February 23, 2019
The technology is refined enough that the rats are able to move through complex mazes with "tight turns, multiple levels and a specific prescribed path." Discover Magazine called them "rat cyborgs," which is an interesting take on these animals that appear to be under mind control.
With all this being said, Stocco stood up for the Chinese researchers.
"The Zhang paper IS for real, and I don't see anything unplausible [sic] about it," Stocco said. The scientist also suggested that the technology could be used to remotely control a surgeon's hand. Additionally, Harvard lab director Seung-Schik Yoo noted that the technology could be a double-edged sword. Meanwhile, Stocco said that we are very far away from the technology being applied to humans.
After all, the rats have implants on their brains, and replicating that in humans would be much more complicated. Besides the physical implant process, the technology could raise a series of ethical and moral questions about whether it's acceptable for human use.
https://t.co/SCBAOLKSes Chinese scientists developed what they call a "rat cyborg" that can be controlled wirelessly by a human mind. Researchers wearing an EEG hat navigated the rodents through a maze using blinks and shoulder shrugs.

As I have said, I love soup! So does my Honey… but, my son always said he hated soup. I tried and tried and finally he did try this one and he really likes it, two bowls tonight. One of the ones he asked me to actually make again. This is such a delicious soup, it reminds me of fall, but is delicious most anytime of the year, especially when it is COLD! Today it was cold! Again!! My Honey enjoys a big hearty bowl of soup after working outside all day so, here it is.
2 Tbsp olive oil
One sweet Onion diced
2 stalks celery chopped
2 carrots chopped
1 clove garlic
1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
1 Tbsp minced fresh rosemary
1 tsp oregano
1 bay leaf
1 Cup left over pork, tenderloin, shoulder, roast
½ cup dry white wine
4 cups beef broth
1 tsp savory
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup cooked wild rice blend (or ½ cup whole grain rice with a half cup of wild rice)cooked.
1 cup fresh spinach julienned
½ cup light cream
Cube or shred pork into bite size pieces, set aside. In large stock pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion, celery, carrots and stir, cook until onions are slightly translucent.
Add garlic, parsley, rosemary and oregano. Continue to cook until herbs become fragrant being careful not to burn garlic, approximately one to two minutes.
Add pork to pot, pour in wine to deglaze pot.
Pour in beef broth add savory, salt and pepper to taste and bay leaf. Cover and simmer for thirty minutes, stirring occasionally.
Now put the spinach in the pot and stir in, heat until it softens.
Add in rice and heat through about five more minutes
Stir in cream.
Serve hot, great with some crusty warm garlic Parmesan rounds or just a loaf of bread!
You could use chicken or vegetable broth I just think that the beef broth gives it an incredible richness.

Blogging from the Caymans Again…
This is the sunset last night from the back porch of where I stay in Grand Cayman. I'm down here again for the next two weeks. Why? Regenexx Cayman is the world's most advanced interventional orthopedics site. Let me explain.
Culture-Expanded Stem Cells
Stem cells can be grown to greater numbers in culture. The vast majority of what we do to treat orthopedic injuries and diseases uses the patient's own bone marrow stem cells in the same day. However, for certain conditions and when there are many areas to treat, growing the stem cells to higher numbers can make a big difference.
The World's Most Advanced Interventional Orthopedics Site
Stem cells that have been culture expanded are not permitted to be used in the U.S. However, there are a slew of countries in Central and South America as well as Asia and a few in Europe that allow this type of therapy. However, none of those sites have physicians trained in interventional and nonsurgical orthopedics. In fact, most have local physicians who have no specific training in this area. What is interventional orthopedics, and how does it differ from surgical orthopedics? See my video below:
Details from This Two Weeks
This next two weeks, I'll be treating a professional athlete, several patients with severe hip arthritis, and many patients who need multiple areas treated with stem cells. The professional athlete has his cells stored here, so he's coming in for an off-season tune-up. The hip arthritis patients all have disease that is far too severe for same-day stem cells. Finally, patients with many sites to be treated would never be able to be treated with high concentrations of stem cells in all of these different areas.
Insurance Coverage
While all of our Regenexx US-based procedures are covered under the employer contracts we are signing every day, this out-of-country treatment is not covered. There are no plans to add this at this time, as in the next few years, it will be available in the U.S. Hence, all treatment down here at this licensed Grand Cayman site is the patient's responsibility.
The upshot? The sunsets are beautiful, the air is warm, and the sound of the surf lulls me to sleep each night. Add in that this is the most advanced interventional orthopedics site, it's no wonder why I travel down three times a year to see some of my patients.

In your "Blogging from the Cayman's Again" you wrote, "There are no plans to add this at this time, as in the next few years, it will be available in the U.S." Are you saying that you expect culture-expanded stem cells are going to be approved for use here in the U.S. in the next few years?↓

I had 81 joints (I think) treated in the Grand Cayman in December. Most of them are doing fantastic and getting big results. A few didn't appreciate it when I tried to increase my activity level. See you in the next few years in the U.S. One day you'll do a patient success blog post on me!!↓

MP Congress:Pol Khol Abhiyan soon
Jabalpur: The Madhya Pradesh Congress President, Kantilal Bhuria, has said that his party would soon launch a "Pol Khol Abhiyan" to expose the alleged corrupt practises of the BJP government in the State. Bhuria told reporters here last evening that party workers have been asked to collect evidence from the districts about any irregularities in the centrally-sponsored schemes. He said the process of gathering evidence would go on and no time limit has been set for it.
The state Congress president also said that after Diwali, the Congress would stage demonstrations all over the State to protest against irregular power supply and inadequate supply of fertilisers to farmers. Bhuria also demanded a probe into the use of funds for veteran BJP leader L K Advani`s Jana Chetna Yatra in the State.

6/21/2015 -
I'm primarily a High School Senior Photographer and a Boudoir Photographer, but my dearest friend and her lovely daughters have been keeping me busy as a Wedding Photographer lately!
Earlier this month I had the absolute privilege to photograph the Comeaux-Harris wedding. Ravyn is our beautiful little 'earth mother' and one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet. Handsome Treaver is just darling and almost as sweet as Rae, they complement each other perfectly. Truly a match made in heaven.
We started the wedding weekend on Friday with the rehearsal at The Admiral in Seabrook where the wedding would take place. The picture perfect couple was dressed impeccably and the rehearsal went off without a hitch. The rehearsal dinner was held at a nearby Italian restaurant. After dinner the bride and her maids retired to the hotel for some girlfriend time on her last night as a single girl! First there was slumber party fun that included girl talk, laughing, a pillow fight, and jumping on the bed. Oh to be twenty-something again! Then we did a mini Boudoir marathon for the Bride and some of her maids, rawr! Treaver is one lucky man!
Saturday began with decorating The Admiral. The hair and makeup artist showed up shortly after to beautify the girls. Ravyn was a bride on this day but she's a mother too and I loved it that she didn't hesitate to nurse Zane while she was getting her make up done when he was hungry. The phrase "birds of a feather" is so apropos for Rae's bridesmaids, they are all just as sweet as she is. They were sharing the love as they admired her dress. The DJ was setting up while everyone was decorating and when he played "Let It Go", mommy and Emma had a sweet mother/daughter moment of dancing.
Once the girls were dressed and the ceremony was about to begin, Ravyn asked everyone to join hands for a moment of prayer. I love that she sought God on such an important day. A quick touch up to her lipstick and it was time!
There ceremony was overlooking the water and was simply stunning! They not only had vows for each other, but Ravyn & Treaver also wrote vows to their children, Emma and Zane. There wasn't a dry eye in the room. I love the fist in the air to celebrate marrying the girl of his dreams. And the socks on the boys were FANTASTIC!! (You simply must click on the image to enlarge it and see for yourself!) LOL
The Admiral was such a beautifully scenic place to hold a wedding and Ravyn and Treaver were gorgeous on the deck over the water. The night carried on with music, dancing, love, and fun. They had a bubble exit and Treaver scooped Ravyn up in his arms to the cheers of family and friends.
It was a wonderful weekend filled with love and happy tears, and I'm so blessed to have been able to capture these moments for them. I love you, Ravyn & Treaver, God bless your union.

DEED's Appeal Envelopes Are Yellow: Unemployment Tip #016
Getting MN unemployment appeal documents, including notices and evidence, generally come in yellow envelopes. However, knowing what to do with [Read More]
Appeal unemployment benefits because it generally does not cost any money, right?
Believe it or not, unemployment benefits in Minnesota are far too valuable for applicants and families to rely on hope.
Generally, the issue is determining the appeal process, gathering the right kind of evidence, and using the law to win an appeal hearing.
As an unemployment lawyer, my goal is to educate and inspire a conversation with applicants seeking help.
I believe the best way to approach the various postings is to understand the type of appeal being sought.
This includes: (1) phone appeal, (2) reconsideration, (3) an appeal to the Minnesota Court of Appeals, and (4) and appeal to Minnesota's Supreme Court.
Another important concept to consider when reviewing these postings, is Minnesota unemployment statute 268.105. The reason this law is important is because it addresses parts of the appeal process.
Thus, please grab a cup of coffee, review my posts, and contact me one-on-one feedback.

Lupita Nyong'o's Stunning New Campaign For Lancôme — First Pic
Lancome ambassadress, Lupita Nyong'o, has stunned us once again with another flawless campaign. We know she broke through as an actress, but she's looking more like a top model! What do you think about the goregous photo?
Lupita Nyong'o, 31, looks amazing on her latest ad as the face of L'Absolu Rouge, Lancome's most classic lipstick. We are so in love with her look and even more, the behind-the-scenes secrets she revealed about her favorite products and her new celebrity status. Get all of the deets below!
Lupita Nyong'o For Lancome Campaign
This beautiful still of Lupita laying in a bed of colored roses was captured by high fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot. The vibrant colors look amazing against Lupita's deep skin tone, including her L'Absolu Rouge in Rouge Amour lipstick.
A bronzy chocolate palette was used on her lids, and her skin was made blemish-free with Lancome's lightweight Teint Idole Ultra 24H foundation.
In a behind-the-scenes video for Lancome, Lupita revealed that she indulges in experimenting with makeup.
Lupita Nyong'o: 'Lipstick Makes Me Feel Well Dressed'
She said, "Make-up for me is like the frame of an art piece. Wearing lipstick makes me feel well dressed… If lipsticks can be your best friend then Absolu Rouge may be that!"
Lupita also was candid enough to admit that she's still getting used to her life in the spotlight!
"I haven't yet figured out how to be a celebrity; that's something I'm learning, and I wish there were a course on how to handle it." We love how humble she is!
We couldn't think of a better ambassador for this campaign. Are you as obsessed with this ad as we are, HollywoodLifers?

some time ago, in the network, a hubbub of things, that is, Tencent, Baidu, Sina and other Internet giants into the network literature. A lot of fiction collection station owners feel very worried, the prospects are slim.
for the Internet, why there are so many giants to enter the novel station? I think they see a profit model of them or see a future trend, then the individual stationmaster should continue to do the novel website? I think, with the increasingly fierce competition in the future, said in a small station. And you see, Baidu is also doing novel stand, is how cool literary network, has been on-line.

The Caterpillar 740 Ejector Articulated Truck is Caterpillar's second generation of articulated dump truck (dump truck) (ADT) to have a system that pushes material out the back of the body. It is the largest articulated dump truck offered by Caterpillar; The larger capacity trucks use a rigid chaise. The ejector uses a 4 cylinder hydraulic ram and blade to dump the material out, a similar system to Cat's wheel tractor-scrapers. The 740 Ejector is sold as separate model from the usual 740.
History Edit
Caterpillar introduced an ejector version of its D400E in 2001. In 2002/2003, the DX00 series of trucks were replaced with the 7XX range. Currently Caterpillar manufactures ADT's in 6 versions; 725, 730, 735, 740 and 730 Ejector, 740 Ejector versions. The 7XX truck series uses the same cab design across all types. These are all manufactured in the UK, at the Peterlee factory, in County Durham.
- Total power is 436 hp (325 kW),
- Total operating weight is 162,280 lb (73,610 kg),
- Payload is 42 short tons (38 tonnes),
- Capacity is 37.3 yd³ (28.5 m³) at a 1:1 heap.
- Top forward speed is 34 mph (55 km/h).
Advantages and Disadvantages Edit
Current advantages
- Lower risk of tipping over on slopes when dumping.
- Ability to spread the material out over a distance.
- Dumping does not increase the risk of contacting overhead obstacles (power lines, bridges, etc).
- Virtually eliminate any material remaining in the body after dumping.
- Dumping and returning can be done without slowing down.
Current disadvantages
- Reduction in types of materials suited for hauling, large rocks can wedge between sidewall and ejector causing damage.
- Winter operations may cause wet material to freeze on sidewall jamming ejector.
- More complicated operation, additional parts to maintain.
- Body can be damaged from contact while loading, preventing ejection.

Serial Killers on the Prairie
One of my Facebook friends posted an article about the Bender Family on my timeline this weekend, asking if I'd ever heard of their story before. I'm sure she thought of me because of the connection to Spiritualism. (She read my book We Hear the Dead about the Fox sisters.)
I had not heard this story before, and it is chilling and gruesome.
Because I'm hurting for post topics this week — drowning in student work to grade — preparing for parent-teacher conferences — and trying to make a little progress on my WIP, I'm going to link to the article for your morbid amusement instead of writing a real post.
At first, I was confused by the reference to Laura Ingalls Wilder at the beginning, because these people have nothing to do with the Ingalls family. But then I got it.
This is a twisted version of Little House on the Prairie, with an evil Ma and Pa, and a little house where visitors were welcomed … killed … and buried.
From Mental Floss: The Bloody Benders, America's First Serial Killers.
Thank you, Katrina Dix!

I have never heard of this family either. I want to read up about them now! Thanks for the link.
I saw "Serial Killer" pop up on my blog roll and raced right over here! lol
Because I'm a weirdo who watches tons of true crime shows, I've heard of this family, but I enjoyed reading the scary article very much! (FYI, there's also a "first" US serial killer who lived in Chicago and killed lady guests of the 1893 World's Fair. But now I guess he wasn't really the first.)
Good luck on all your grading, conferences, and writing! 🙂
LOL I'm the same as Lexa. You had me at serial killer. I've never heard of the family. Now don't they sound adorable. 😛
Wow! I've never heard of this story either. It doesn't seem like they'd make enough money to make their murders worthwhile? Maybe another story idea for you? I'm most curious about Ma, though the daughter seemed quite interesting as well.
Best of luck surviving your crazy week of conferences, writing, and grading!
That was quite a gruesome story.
I don't think serial killers kill for the money. The Benders support that theory. I think that they just like killing. Taking the goods was just another way of removing evidence that those folks were there. Sounds like they sold most of it (hence the "accessories" mentioned), so it wasn't envy that motivated them.
It's totally like the evil Ingalls family.
btw, meant to email you. YES, that email was actually sent to my son's teacher. Glad to hear some teachers would be amused 🙂
Yikes! That sounds gruesome and delightful. I'm headed over now!
Well that was … disturbing. LOL. Crazy family!
Yes, it's a disturbing story, made worse by the fact that after someone finally caught on, they disappeared without a trace. It gives me the shivers.
Shivers. So creeptastic and awesome!!
Hi Dianne .. that is some set of circumstances .. and as the article notes we'll never know exactly what happened …
Just dreadful … and sad – good luck with all that grading et al .. cheers Hilary
I've never heard of this family. I went and read the story about them and it gave me cold chills.
Horrifying. I want to know what turned them into killers. Greed? Mental disease? Just plain crazy?
I've heard about this case as I've been doing some advanced research for a future book that involves serial killers. The topic is fascinating to me, but it also gives me nightmares at night.
Jeez, I've heard of families so hospitable, their guests never want to leave, but the Benders actually kept 'em. Those folks who refused to sit in the "seat of honor" were some kinda lucky.

Presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz is visiting our state this week and made a stop this morning in Raleigh. Reporter Matt Caulder was there as a member of the media and covered the story for NC Capitol Connection.
The event included a town hall format with Megyn Kelly of Foxnews, who interviewed Sen. Cruz on stage in front of the crowd of over 500, with over 300 being turned away outside.
However, if you had only read reports of this event from Laura Leslie and WRAL, you would believe that:
- The Cruz rally was cancelled (replaced by a town hall)
- That the crowd was a few hundred (nothing to say of the 300 outside)
- That the event was "closed to other media"
Strange… If it was closed to other media, how did NC Capitol Connection's Matt Caulder report from the event? I sent a tweet to point this out.
WRAL now admits their claim that the event was closed to media was in fact dishonest. Thankfully, they will correct that part of their story. Hopefully they will correct other inaccuracies as well.

How personal values and the principles contribute to the work in the health and social care settings
This essay will provide an overview of the influence of the individual's personal values and the principles and how do they contribute to the work in the health and social care settings. This essay will also discuss the impact of new development and changes to the personal values of the work in the health and social care. Moreover this essay will also assess that how the personal culture and experience may influence the own roles of the supporting users of the services in health and social care settings.
Personal values and principles include Respect, dignity, confidentiality etc. We will start with confidentiality. Confidentiality is very much important in the health and social care settings. Since it seems quite complex, this is why it leads to misapplication and misunderstanding. The health and social care sectors also lays emphasis in order to train their employees in such a way so that they can maintain a high level of confidentiality in the organization.
In health care settings the word confidentiality relates to the personal information of patients. The main problem in the health care sector arises when the administration has to decide the mode of communication of this information among the core staff members. The aim of the confidential care service is to protect the information of their patients and to restrict unauthorized access to it (Craig, 2011).
This is why to make this process easy the health care units informs all the consumers about the information that is being procured for them and how will they use it. But the matter of confidentiality becomes tedious at times when the patients refuse to provide their consent for the use of their information.
The dignity is primarily to human conditions and it is a function of human reasons. This is a fundamental concept of the Universal Declaration of human Rights and the Medical Association International of code of Medical Ethics. When the people are in urgent need of health and social care services, the people are in the most of the danger of losing their dignity and self respect. The people who are most vulnerable are in the need for the health care services and such times respect for dignity is particularly important.
Dignity is equally essential for all those who are on the front line and those running health care organizations. The only thing that they need to understand is that what they mean when they say "dignity in care". However the concept of dignity has different connotations to different consumers of the health services. The older and vulnerable people who are left in pain, ignored, or distressed by a lack of privacy emerge so often they cannot be dismissed as isolated cases. This makes it clear that many older people suffer routine lapses of dignity in care (HSJ, 2009).
Thus in order to improve the health and social care settings, it is important to maintain the dignity of older people who are consuming health and social care services. In order to maintain dignity of older people the health care units are required to assess and evaluate the health care settings using the these criteria. Help the Aged research has identified nine important criteria: autonomy and choice; communication; eating and nutrition; end of life care; pain management; personal care; personal hygiene, bathing and using the toilet; privacy; and social inclusion.
Thus, respect and dignity are two major components while evaluating the services of health and social care settings. If the consumers or the patients are being treated kindly as opposed to being treated rudely then they would definitely exhibit a positive response in relation and this appears to have a marked influence on the eventual health-related outcomes.
It is clear that being treated with dignity, as well as being involved in decisions are factors that are both independently associated with positive clinically relevant outcomes (Nelson, et al., 2009). If the patients are involved in the process of decision making then it can also become an important element of respecting a patient's autonomy; it is also of great importance to respect patients more broadly by ensuring that they are treated with dignity.
The culture may influence the working of health and social care settings. The cultural issues are related to the issues regarding culture, race, gender, and sexual orientation. If a nurse wants to become a cultural competent server then she is required to achieve the ability to effectively work within the cultural context of an individual, family, or community from a diverse cultural/ethnic background (Waine, et al., 2005).
An individual who belongs to a particular cultural background is not similar to the other. A person's identity is also shaped by, among other things, their own personality, education, family experience, socioeconomic status and life experience (Health, 2012). Thus it is important to be aware of the sensitive and cultural backgrounds of the individuals in the health care sectors because it is likely that in all units there are several staff members who belongs to different cultural groups and thus it is important to understand the needs of each every individual.
While working in the organization, every staff member experiences different situations in the health care settings. For example if the staff member belongs to a specific culture and understands a particular language then it would create problems for an outsider if he enters into the organization. He would have to experience problems related to communication and accessibility.
Moreover, he may also experience the problems related to the diet and medicines provided by the organization. For instance if the consumer of the services belongs to the cultural group where there is a ban on taking alcohol, then this would create a problem for him.
Also the gender, age and education also influence the working with people in the heath care settings. They might have to experience such situations in which they are required to treat people of opposite sex/gender or who older than them and are unable to communicate because of the lack of knowledge and education.
There are also certain situations where life events and death are involved. Thus it is required for every staff member to comply with such situations and does not get emotionally attached to such situations (Redding, 2012). Instead they need to be trained to withstand during the situations of death and life events so that they could easily manage with such times.
Legislations and Policies
Data protection Act 1998: the data protection act was formulated in 1998 in the UK was enacted to protect the information to the consumers of the heath and social care settings and to keep that information confidential. The information which is disclosed by a patient to a doctor is regarded as confidential and can be passed to someone else only with the patient's consent for a particular purpose or if the recipient of the information is concerned with the patient's care and treatment. The information can also be transferred to a third person only on order of court or is required by the statute.
As per this legislation, if the information is shared, there is an implied understanding that the information will not be used except where it is strictly needed to help the professional provide the service. Each member of the team, and any person who provides administrative or secretarial support, has an obligation to treat the information as confidential (Health, 2000).
Equality Act 2010: this act was brought into effect in October 2010 in order to protect the people from being discriminated against cultural issues such as race, sex, disability, religion, age, sexual orientation etc. It also strengthens the law in certain situations, including increased protection for disabled people, and new measures protecting carers of disabled or elderly people.
While formulating Equality Act 2010, it was proposed that there should be no specific exceptions in health and social care. However they could can continue to treat people differently because of their age but are required to to show, if challenged, that there is a good reason ("objective justification") for that different treatment. The main aim of adding this approach was to ensure that high quality, dignified and compassionate care services are provided on the basis of need (Crown, 2010).
After discussing each and every aspect of the requirement of confidentiality, dignity and respect it would not be wrong to say that these three components are very important in the working for the health and social care settings. The privacy of every individual is essential for every individual thus it is the prime duty of every heath care unit to protect the information of every individual and keep it confidential. Moreover the dignity has to be considered primarily from the patient's or client's perspective. People need to be listened to and understood in terms of what is important to them. Thus every individual wants his privacy to be respected and time to build relationships with nursing staff members. When dignity and respect are absent from care, people feel devalued, lack control and comfort. They may feel humiliated, embarrassed and ashamed and are unable to make decisions for themselves because of lack of confidence among them.

Ukraine's shale gas development looks promising and the alternative gas may change the eastern European country's energy picture, an expert said Monday, according to Xinhua.
Andrew Chubik, executive director of the Kiev-bases analytical center Strategy XXI, told Xinhua that Ukraine, which is believed to have Europe's third-largest shale gas reserves of 1.2 trillion cubic meters, may produce up to 15 billion cubic meters of unconventional gas annually.
"Ukraine may produce from 7 to 15 billion cubic meters of shale gas per year. It is a great figure given Ukraine's current annual natural gas output of 20 billion cubic meters," Chubik said.
The country would likely launch shale gas production on an industrial scale in 2022, the expert said, adding that unconventional gas may be a long-term solution to Ukraine's energy security issues.
"The escalation of shale gas development may eliminate the need of gas imports and thus reduce gas price for households and commercial clients," Chubik said.
Although shale gas extraction is an opportunity for Ukraine to obtain its energy independence, it may bring a lot of environmental threats.
Fracking, a technology that involves injecting water and chemicals to break rock formations and extract shale gas, can cause minor earthquakes and contaminate underground water supplies and air, opponents say.
"Of course, shale gas extraction has environmental risks, just as production of other hydrocarbons. The greatest environmental risk is opaque work in this area. If gas companies, the government and the public will control production, the risks are minimal," Chubik said.
Kiev signed a major shale gas deal with Royal Dutch Shell in January to extract gas trapped underground in Ukraine's eastern Yuzovska area.

Our contributor, Mr K S Wood, of the Studio Gainsborough has set himself the task of painting pictures of all the windmills in the country. His only means of locomotion is a pedal cycle and recently he made a fortnights tour on his machine through eight counties, painting views of roadside mills. In this and future articles he tells of some of his experiences. The title of this article is that of a book on windmills, which Mr Wood is writing.
The extraordinary interest of the public in the windmills from the use of which the modern science of engineering developed has led to me being asked to give an account of my most recent trip on a pedal cycle in search of these fast passing relics of the past. Why pedal cycle? so many ask. Why not a motor car? Chiefly, I will reply, because I have learnt that unless one works for a thing it is scarcely worth the having. Then, the exercise keeps one fit, one sees the country, one can get to places impossible to the motor car; and several other reasons.
Well it so happened that set off at 6-30a.m. the first day of the recent heat wave. To be at Newark just after eight o'clock, attired for a cycling holiday (shorts, and all that) observing most folk about to commence their days work, seemed as pleasant as the gradual slipping away of consciousness under an anaesthetic. From here my course lay along the Great North Road, the finest road in the British Isles. Between Long Bennington and Foston I met a 'hiker' who was walking from London to York. He had started on Sunday, and was walking lame, and had apparently averaged 30 miles per day. What struck one, already, was the greenness of the countryside. I have never seen such a green August the trees seemed to be exactly as they were in June. Grantham by 9-30, over what I have seen described as the steepest gradient on the Great North Road, but which I believe to be excelled by the hill south of Grantham, over the G.N.R south of Grantham, over the G.N.R. bridge. I rode the first but could not manage the second. The country here is very charming. Colsterworth was my first objective, so I turned to the right just after the railway bridge, seven miles from Grantham, and painted my first subject.
This was the remains of a well-built stone tower mill, in which a horse was sheltering from the sun, now growing fierce. The other mill of the village has left no trace.
Leicestershire's Bad Record
South Witham, where there was a typical Lincolnshire mill, in ruins, next claimed my presence, followed by a Wymonham, where the mill and cottage made a pretty group. Here the heat was excessive, and I began to realise that Sol cannot treat everyone alike with his favours, for his rays decidedly did not suit me. The road now took on a bad surface, and here I will remark on the state of the roads of the eighteen counties through which I rode. In the 'Gainsborough News' of August 17th, 1928, there is a note that Leicestershire was the worst county (for road surface) of any which the writer had to traverse, and it still maintains that unenviable position. It is, in fact, worse now than then; or it was on this particular day. For more miles I rode on a surface scattered with broken pebbles, each covered with an oily black liquid, which spurted up my stockings, in my shoes, in the innermost parts of my cycle (and my shorts).
This was a main road, and when a motor car or lorry passed, the shower of stones even flew down one's neck. When this disagreeable experience was over, the roads took on a peculiar flinty unevenness that never see in counties other than Leicestershire. In 1928 I praised Lincolnshire roads and still do so, with more emphasis than then, for they have much improved, quite 40 percent, and I can truly say that I know of no other county where the least frequented by-roads can be found with such good surfaces. Nottingham, of course, is ahead of most counties, and Somerset and Gloucester are good. Devon is not so satisfactory, though Cornwall is better than one expects. But to return to our muttons. The bad roads of Leicester then had at least an end, and I found, after all, that even they could be ameliorated by the sight of the magnificent church of Queniborough, after painting the mill at Ashby Folville. Barnsby's and Syston's mills have left no traces. The city of Leicester saw me at 5 p.m., and here I stayed my first night.
"I'll go to_____"
Off by eight o'clock, on the Fosse Road now, to Broughton Astley, Sapcotes and Sharnford, where not one of the mills formerly there have left any remains. When I was young, I often heard, after a statement, the phrase "Well, I'll go to Hinckley" for which town, some folk substitute "blazes". Here I was then anxious to see what Hinckley was like, as it was so distinguished, and must confess the town might just as well have been Gainsborough or Newark. Here one
gets on to the Holyhead road, a splendid highway. My side of it was pale pink, the other half was brilliant blue, and for miles this two coloured ribbon stretched before me, its peculiarity being due to the fact that one half (my half) was in Warwickshire, and the other in Leicestershire. But it was a good surface and did not run streams of tar, though it was the hottest day of the year.
I turned off at Caldecote hill and painted the mill on the top after an al-fresco lunch on a canal bridge, and a really painful toil up a grassy, but glass sprinkled hillside.
Here it was frankly too hot to finish the subject entirely, so I left it when I had got the chief features done. The heat literally dried the paint on the brush before it could be got properly on the paper. Baxterley was the next place, where a splendid old post mill, gaunt and bare awaited my attentions. A nearby cottager kindly allowed me to sit in her garden, and gave me spring water to drink in copious measure.
The next place for a mill was Little Payton, where there was the lower part of a tower mill, and where the spring water turned to homemade ginger beer. I seemed to be in luck, especially as they brought me a seat to sit on into the bargain.

Cycling: Branch and Lebentz seal Eastern titles with a round to spare at Milton cyclo-cross
PUBLISHED: 14:28 30 January 2020 | UPDATED: 14:28 30 January 2020
The top women's places in the Eastern Cyclo-Cross League were settled in the penultimate round at Milton near Cambridge where Elvita Branch (Felixstowe) and Martha Lebentz (Bury St Edmunds) both made sure they were unassailable as Senior and Junior Women's Champions.
Runner-up positions are also beyond alteration, whatever happens in the final round at Writtle. Ipswich rider Katie Scotter will be second Senior while Harley Pell (Hargroves Cycles) is next Junior.
None of these won the Cambridge race, however, as Three Peaks Under 23 winner and Cambridge student Ffion James swept round on her MTB to a three minute victory.
James said the mountain bike rolled well over the tree roots - of which there were a lot on this course where competitors climb and descend the wooded bund that protects Milton Country Park from the thunder of traffic on the nearby A14.
Organisers Cambridge Junior Cycling Club had devised a varied and twisting course and saw their member Josh Palfreyman take third in the Youth (Under 16s) race - his best yet.
The Country Park managers welcome cyclists and the course, though no longer marked with tapes, remains available for those who would like to try it. Access to the country park is from the A14/A10 interchange on the northern outskirts of Cambridge.
Callum Laborde (Iceni Velo) had a clear win in the U16s, his first Eastern win since the Mistley race in November, though in between there have been outstanding National Trophy results. Joseph Smith, also from the Iceni club, was second, and is now certain to be runner-up to Laborde in the Eastern League as well.
WXC World Racing dominated the Under 16 Girls results with Phoebe Roche, Abigail Miller, Harriet Limb and Emily Miller taking the top four places, with Miller now assured of the League Championship.
The final race of the day, for Senior (age 18-39) and Junior (16-17) men saw Juniors take eight of the top 15 places with Junior Max Bolton taking the race win. Young riders do well on these sharp climbs and descents.
Watching the field first time over the log obstacle about the first ten in the 55 rider field chose to bunny-hop, staying astride their bikes, the rest dismounting.
Bolton, from Theydon Bois, and his QSW teammate James Madgwick soon opened a gap. Bolton picked his moment to attack and caught Madgwick off-guard. A gap opened, never to be closed, though Madgwick still scored maximum Senior points and remains in position to take the League if he gets a half-decent score in the final round.
Midlander Phil Roach won the Vets 50-Plus race, his determined, analytical approach paying dividends. Top Eastern League rider was Ian Newby who got away from regular winner Jimmy Piper on the technical ridge sections - only the second time in four seasons of cyclo-cross that an Eastern rider has beaten Piper.
However Piper's points as second Eastern finisher were enough to clinch the League V50 Men's Championship, joining Jo Newstead who is already sure of top women's V50 medal.
Likewise Ben Lewis (Forest Side Riders), second to Neil Ellison at Cambridge, is certain of the V40 League win. On Sunday he was too quick for nearest challenger Suffolk rider Stuart Pryce. Darren Rutterford finished next with the next places gong to Stowmarket & District regulars Glenn Davey and Mark Powell, with Colchester's Andy Hurst seventh.
Reliability Trials are now in full swing with good weather attracting 140 riders from 16 clubs to CC Sudbury's events based at Great Cornard - with at least one brave rider choosing to wear shorts.
The East District CA ride from Carbrooke drew another 30-odd, but the prize presentation was poorly supported and the decision has been taken to make the ceremony the last edition.
This Sunday West Suffolk Wheelers have their Suffolk Punch rides based at their club HQ in Shakers Lane, Bury St Edmunds IP32 7BH.

text: The alarm goes off, and you wake up. Stretching your muscles before rising out of your comfy bed. You slide your feet into your warm slippers and stand up. You walk to your bedroom window and touch it with your hand; it's cold. You look out and see most of the leaves are on the ground, and squirrels spurring about collecting nuts. You turn around and shuffle your way to the kitchen where your morning coffee is ready for you to pour in your favorite mug with the saying, "Witches Brew." You wrap your hands around the outside of the mug, warming your palms and fingers. You hear whispering in your ear, you take down another mug with the saying, "Honor Thy Ancestors." You pour another cup of your warm coffee and set it on a table where pictures of your ancestors are in their frames. You offered them the cup of coffee and placed it in the middle. You walk over to your sliding glass door and look out; you see your fire-pit, all ready for the special bonfire on this Samhain night. [Read More]

Following your overnight flight from Dublin to Tokyo, you will be transferred to the port in Yokohama to board the 5* Diamond Princess.
Yokohama and Edo began life as sleepy fishing villages. That changed in the early 17th century after Tokugawa Ieyasu became Shogun. Edo became the center of political power in Japan, a position the city retained even after the restoration of Imperial rule in 1866. Contemporary Tokyo may be the most astonishing city on earth. It's a paradoxical mix of ancient tradition and postmodern culture. The Ginza – an international shopping mecca – stands near the serene grounds of the Imperial Palace, and the hyper-speed of 21st century consumerism is mysteriously reconciled with the elegance and serenity of traditional culture. Tokyo provides the traveler with a dizzying experience. With the Meiji Restoration of 1868, Edo was renamed Tokyo, the "Eastern Capital," to distinguish it from the old imperial capital at Kyoto, the "Western Capital."
The largest island in the Ryukyu Archipelago, Okinawa has been a center of trade and a source for conflict through its history. The island has been an independent kingdom, the feudal possession of a Japanese daimyo and a prefecture of Japan following the Meiji Restoration of 1866. Okinawa was the scene of bitter fighting during the closing days of World War II. Over 100,000 civilians perished and the island was left in ruins. A US military possession, Okinawa returned to Japanese rule in 1972. Naha is the island's largest city and the capital of Okinawa Prefecture. Okinawa is the birthplace of karate. One of the world's most popular martial arts, karate is a fusion of Chinese kung fu and traditional island martial arts.
Miyako Island (Miyakojima), the fourth largest in the Okinawa Prefecture, has a rich history that dates to the Jomon Period. The original language is still spoken on the island, which has developed its own cultural heritage; its own version of soba noodles; and its own Otori customs, including a ceremonial drinking of awamori (rice liquor), the island's signature beverage. Miyakojima is most renowned for its spectacular natural scenery. It lays claim to some of Japan's best beaches, 62 miles (100 km.) of coastline fringed by a vibrant coral reef. Its underwater splendor and subtropical year-round climate make it a highly prized diving destination. Sugar cane fields and mangrove groves stretch as far as the eye can see, punctuated by small towns and graceful bridges that connect Miyakojima to four smaller islets, making island hopping a breeze. The Botanical Gardens offers trails lined with over 1,600 types of plants, including the official Prefectural "Deigo" Flower. The island's unique cultural and industrial endeavors are delightfully varied, and visitors can tour a commemorative German Cultural Village, watch the creation of hemp cloth called Miyako-Jofu, which is woven into intricate patterns, and sample and purchase salt products from the factory that produces salt with the highest mineral content in the world. For more traditional souvenirs, shop at one of the large specialty malls offering everything from Japanese mementos to cosmetics, top brand-name apparel and confections. And when you feel like doing nothing at all, just soak in an onsen overlooking the picturesque landscape.
The oldest Chinese reference to Taiwan dates back to the Han Dynasty in the 3rd century B.C. However, it wasn't until the 17th century A.D. that Chinese Hakka traders first settled on the island. These bold merchants were soon followed by European and Asian adventurers seeking to control and colonize the strategic island. The most famous migration of all occurred in 1948, when the government of the Republic of China fled the mainland. Taipei is Taiwan's capital city and one of the world's most important commercial centers. Despite its turbulent history, Taiwan today boasts an economy that is the envy of the world. Modern Taiwan is a world leader in the production of bicycles, computer chips, plastics, chemicals and computer notebooks. Taipei is a sophisticated modern metropolis that has not forgotten its rich traditional past. The port of Keelung is your gateway to Taiwan. Visit the bustling city of Taipei and other interesting areas surrounding on this fascinating island in the East China Sea.
Following your departure from the Diamond Princess, you will be transferred to the airport to catch your flight home to Dublin.
Diamond Princess
Diamond Princess is a treasure trove of exceptional delights waiting to be discovered. Dine on freshly prepared sashimi in Kai Sushi, watch street performers in the dazzling Atrium, or take in a lavish production show in our state-of-the-art theatre.

The Lord said to Moses on Mount Sinai, "Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'When you enter the land I am going to give you, the land itself must observe a sabbath to the Lord. For six years sow your fields, and for six years prune your vineyards and gather their crops. But in the seventh year the land is to have a sabbath of rest, a sabbath to the Lord. Do not sow your fields or prune your vineyards. Do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the grapes of your untended vines. The land is to have a year of rest. (Leviticus 25:1-5)
No sowing or pruning or reaping or harvesting for a whole year. That would have sounded preposterous to the Israelite's and many of them would have started calculating losses or imagining their families going hungry. The Lord knew the thoughts that would run through their minds; so he gave them the solution before they encountered the so called problem. God spoke to them and said,
You may ask, "What will we eat in the seventh year if we do not plant or harvest our crops?" I will send you such a blessing in the sixth year that the land will yield enough for three years. While you plant during the eighth year, you will eat from the old crop and will continue to eat from it until the harvest of the ninth year comes in. (Leviticus 25:20-22)
Amazing, just amazing! They were going to have a yield in the sixth year that would last for 3 years i.e. till the harvest of the ninth year came in.
So what's that problem that you are worried about today? Some job opportunity that slipped through your hands? Some financial gain that you thought you would pocket but it didn't materialize. Relax; God has the solution in place. Not to worry, child of God. Carry on serving the Lord faithfully and you will see God provide all things needed at the right time. He is El Shaddai, God Almighty. He will do great miracles for you and satisfy your righteous desires.
The God who promised great blessings in the 6th year to the Israelite's still bestows wonderful blessings on his children. Trust in him.
......God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19)

A crunchy, colorful salad.
Prep time: 15 minutes
Serves 4
3 large carrots (or enough to yield about 2 cups processed)
1 large stick celery (or enough to yield 1 to 1 1/2 cups processed)
1 apple cored and cut into wedges
1 cup chopped arugula
1 cup chopped young broccoli leaves
1/4 cup chopped chives
1/4 cup chopped parsley
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
For the salad: Fire up your food processor and, using the thin slicing disk, slice up the carrots, apple, and celery. Of course, slicing with a knife is always an option. Scrape sliced vegetables into a bowl, and add the arugula, broccoli leaves, chives, and parsley.
Drizzle the lemon juice, then the olive oil, over the salad and toss to coat. Distribute to serving plates, sprinkling with pecans and crumbled blue cheese.
Variations: Endless. All kinds of greens (radish greens, lettuce, turnip greens, young kale, escarole) could be used.

May 25, 2015
A recent poll found that smartphone users are increasingly using shopping applications. In 2013, overall app usage grew by 115%, but the rate of growth slowed in 2014 to 76%. However, the opposite was true for shopping and lifestyle apps. Usage grew by 77% in 2013 and jumped in 2014 with a 174% increase, according to data from Flurry. With in-store beacons becoming more prevalent and engaging shoppers in new ways, this mobile growth trend seems set to continue in 2015.
Beacons will continue to power in-store engagement, according to another report, by Forrester Research. Younger shoppers--those between the ages of 18 and 48--are ready and willing to give up information about their locations in exchange for in-store offers. However, retailers must be mindful of the privacy concerns of older shoppers, according to Forrester.
If smartphone users feel as though they're being spammed with too many marketing messages, then they may uninstall a retailer's app or disable Bluetooth and location services on their phones. With that in mind, beacons may present an avenue for marketers to communicate their messages. Beacons and shopping apps could offer marketers the opportunity "to get the right thing to the right person at the right time," according to Peggy Anne Salz, an analyst focused on mobile search, contextual marketing, and business transformation at MobileGroove.
"The most important thing companies need to be aware of is that beacons are worthless without a solid marketing strategy," says Rebecca Schuette, director of marketing for Swirl. Swirl provides an enterprise-level marketing platform. Beacon technology is "just technology" without "a clear, defined set of goals" for the data collected, she says.
Salz offers marketers similar advice. She points out that beacons "are dumb technology. Their value comes in when you implement it in a smart way." Having beacons is not the same as having a location-based strategy, Salz says. The use of beacons must be a part of a much larger strategy to extend and deepen a company's conversations with customers. The correct strategy is not solely focused on promotion-offering coupons and product discounts-but more on customer engagement, she says.
A large part of that engagement involves "reducing the friction in the shopping experience," Salz says. Offering shopping assistance is much more highly valued by customers than promotions. "At one level, beacons offer utility. ... At another level, they become a nuisance. Then you're trying to second-guess what the customer wants," Salz says.
The beacon market at the moment is very fragmented. Some hardware manufacturers only produce the hardware, leaving marketers to figure out the rest. However, some vendors such as Swirl now supply beacons as part of an enterprise-level marketing platform or SaaS. These product and service offerings include some mix of beacon management systems, advertising exchanges, software development kits (SDKs), and CMSs.
Companies need to make the shopping experience as simple as possible, Salz says. Engaging with customers in a smart way involves analyzing all the data signals marketers have, not just beacon location data, she adds. Companies already have a huge amount of data about their customers. Such data can be combined with the information collected through a beacon system.
Marketing efforts also have to engage customers on all their screens: laptops, smartphones, and tablets, Salz says. The strategy must be a multichannel one, she says. "Nothing replaces anything." To make matters more complicated-although they are engaging with customers over multiple channels-marketers must avoid repeating anything.
Beacons must be part of the larger marketing strategy, one that is very information-intensive, according to Salz. CMOs now have an involvement in and need for data capacity and information resources equivalent to that of CIOs. No one else occupying the C-suite needs as much information-processing power.
Such heavy use of resources is more than justified by the results it can produce, Salz mentions. "We're as close to one-to-one marketing as we can ever be." Companies need to sequence their interactions with customers. They also must be mindful of customers' favorite means of connection. Some prefer voice, others prefer text, and still others prefer email.
Societal changes have altered the relationship between companies and consumers. "We are a truly mobile society, meaning we're always on our smartphones," Salz says. "The question is, 'How can we use them to deepen companies' relationships with customers?'"
Beacons can give companies valuable feedback, such as where most customers go a lot of the time. Knowing the paths most customers travel in a store is useful knowledge to have, according to Salz. Such knowledge enables a company to offer certain products in high-traffic areas or plan more compelling store layouts, she says.
Erik McMillan (CEO and founder of Shelfbucks, another beacon services vendor) sees the technology becoming pervasive in 5 to 10 years. He predicts consumers will encounter beacons and location-based apps throughout the grocery store and pharmacy sectors.
McMillan believes the technology most certainly will change. The important thing is not any specific technology but what it can allow companies to do. Retailers will be able to personalize the in-store experience for shoppers, he says. Such technology will offer retailers the ability to reproduce an old-school retail experience, in which the local pharmacist knew everyone's name and his particular needs.
McMillan points out that retail chains can't replicate that kind of service on a large scale with their sales associates. The data collected from beacons could help, he says. In coming years, analytical data from them will give retailers a fuller picture of who their shoppers are and how they interact with the physical store, McMillan says. With that information in hand, a retailer can offer an unprecedented level of customer service.
Swirl's Schuette says the application of beacon technology is ready to leave the testing phase and move on to implementation. "2014 was all about stores experimenting with beacons, and that will continue to some extent into 2015," she says. The pilot programs of 2014 demonstrated that beacon systems do work. Schuette predicts that this year, more companies will embrace the use of beacons.
