I do like this idea for a couple tattoo. Diff location, and probably smaller but still. the King & his Queen always make it through <3
Every man needs a woman when his life is a mess, because just like in a game of chess; the queen protects the king. I took my boyfriend to get this as one of his suprises for his 25th birthday. We loved the quote and thought it would be the perfect matching tattoo

More risk management jobs are opening up in Singapore as banks hire staff to tackle a growing range of risks and an ever-changing regulatory burden.
As a result, risk professionals in the city state are often able to move banks with comparative ease – and pick up large pay rises.
But if you work in the function, how do you know whether your Singapore risk salary is still competitive?
We've averaged out Singapore salary surveys from six recruitment agencies across credit, market and operational risk to produce the table below, which shows base pay from analyst to director level.
If you want to work in the function that currently pays the most at all seniority levels and which offers the best prospects of future salary rises, try market risk.
Pay increases for candidates moving banks in Singapore average between 10% and 15% in credit and operational risk, while in market risk you can expect 15% or above, say recruiters.
"There's a smaller talent pool and there's high demand for market risk professionals with experience of the Volcker Rule, OTC derivatives reforms, and Basel implementation," says Lynne Roeder, managing director of recruitment firm Hays in Singapore.
Within credit risk, professionals with credit-approval authority or experience are "highly valued" by banks in Singapore, says Roeder.
"So are those with experience in running the full credit cycle, from putting up credit papers through to post-approval monitoring," she says. "And there's been a recent spike in demand for credit risk candidates in specialised areas like marine, shipping and aviation finance, which has put more upward pressure on pay."
Roeder adds: "Banks in Singapore are also starting to group their operational risk and compliance functions together, particularly at the senior level. So ops risk candidates with hybrid skill sets in compliance, or in areas such as project management and change management, are becoming more sought after."
Technology risk is a key area of emerging demand within risk management, says Orelia Chan, senior manager of legal, compliance, audit and risk at recruiters Robert Walters in Singapore. Banks have increased their hiring since the Monetary Authority of Singapore revised its Technology Risk Management Guidelines in November last year.
Singapore's status as a wealth management hub means much of the current risk hiring is into private banks, adds Chan.
Most analyst and associates working in risk in Singapore receive bonuses of 12.5% to 15% of salary, while VPs get 16% to 30%. At director level risk bonuses range between 30% and 50%.

FORWARD OPERATING BASE MAREZ, Iraq, Dec. 21 -- It was a brilliant, sunny day with a blue sky and warmer-than-usual temperatures in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul.
Hundreds of U.S. soldiers had just sat down for lunch in their giant chow hall tent.
It was about noon Tuesday when insurgents hit the tent with a suspected rocket attack. The force of the explosions knocked soldiers off their feet and out of their seats. A fireball enveloped the top of the tent, and shrapnel sprayed into the troops.
Amid the screaming and thick smoke that followed, quick-thinking soldiers turned their lunch tables upside down, placed the wounded on them and gently carried them into the parking lot.
"Medic! Medic!" soldiers shouted.
Medics rushed into the tent and hustled the rest of the wounded out on stretchers.
Scores of troops crammed into concrete bomb shelters outside. Others wobbled around the tent and collapsed, dazed by the blast.
"I can't hear! I can't hear!" one female soldier cried as a friend hugged her.
Near the front entrance to the chow hall, troops tended a soldier with a gaping head wound. Within minutes, they zipped him into a black body bag. Three more bodies were in the parking lot.
Soldiers scrambled back into the hall to check for more wounded. The explosions blew out a huge hole in the roof of the tent. Puddles of bright red blood, lunch trays and overturned tables and chairs covered the floor.
Grim-faced soldiers growled angrily about the attack as they stomped away.
Sgt. Evan Byler, of the 276th Engineer Battalion, based in Richmond, steadied himself on one of the concrete bomb shelters. He was eating chicken tenders and macaroni when the bomb hit. The blast knocked him out of his chair. When the smoke cleared, Byler took off his shirt and wrapped it around a seriously wounded soldier.
Byler held the bloody shirt in his hand, not quite sure what to do with it.
"It's not the first close call I have had here," said Byler, a Fauquier County resident who survived a roadside bomb blast while riding in a vehicle earlier this year.

September 11 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series "One Last Race to Make The Chase" to be Titled Air Guard 400
Richmond, VA (August 4, 2010)--In a historic skydiving stunt into Richmond International Raceway, track president Doug Fritz and Air Guard representative MSgt Matt Leas announced today the Air Guard will hold the race entitlement for the September 11, 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at America's Premier Short Track. With the help of NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver David Stremme, the trio unveiled the new Air Guard 400 race logo for the "One Last Race to Make The Chase" NASCAR Doubleheader Weekend, September 10 -- 11.
"We are excited to announce a new partnership with the Air Guard for our September 11 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race," said Fritz. "The Air Guard is a great organization that allows Americans to serve our country and their community. Many of our first responders are also members of the Air Guard and we're proud to bring them on as a new partner at Richmond International Raceway."
"It's going to be very exciting to have a race that's named after the Air Guard," said Air Force Capt. Rondal Perry, the chief of the marketing and advertising branch of the Air National Guard. "The Air Guard is picking up speed in an effort to increase its public awareness. The Air Guard 400 will give our recruiters an exciting chance to showcase all of the opportunities that we have to offer."
The Air Guard allows Americans to serve part-time, providing flexibility to live life on their terms while serving their community and country with honor and pride. With more than 140 units in the United States, Air Guard members can serve where they live. Serving in the Air Guard helps Americans earn money for college, receive world-class training for a high-tech world and gain the discipline and confidence to be successful in life.
NASCAR returns to Richmond International Raceway September 10-11 for one of the most anticipated race weekends of the season, highlighted by the Saturday, September 11, Air Guard 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race "under the lights." This race is "One Last Race to Make The Chase" for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. Once the checkered flag drops, the field will be set for the 2010 championship.

Last weekend before Chinese New Year and my Facebook page was flooded with interesting Chinese New Year craft ideas! But the one that really stood out (for me at least) was an origami Fortune God that my friend made! I asked her for the instruction and it was readily available on YouTube:
I didn't have a piece of paper that was red on one side and white on the other side, so I improvised and used the free red packets I got at the POSB pop-up ATMs. You would need 2 red packets to make 1 Fortune God. What's so good about these POSB red packets was that it had design on one side and was totally white on the other side, and when cut opened, it formed a perfect square!
Following the YouTube instruction, this was the end-product. KAWAII!! Love it to bits!
Since it was year of the
sheep goat sheep, whatever… I searched YouTube for origami sheep or goat. Some of them were pretty complicated, but I finally found one that was easy peasy:
Still using the POSB red packets, this time I only needed half a red packet for one sheep. So same thing, cut it open and remove the flap, but this time I cut it into two rectangles.
And following the YouTube instruction, I made 2 sheep!
Here's wishing all my reader a very Happy Chinese New Year! Have fun crafting these Ang Pow origami sheep and Fortune God with your kids!

Plumbing Made Simple – Tips To Help You On Your Plumbing ProjectsCategories Plumbing
Good plumbing maintenance is relatively easy, but failing to keep up with it can mean costly repairs. Here are some good ways you can take care of your plumbing, either yourself or with the help of a licensed professional. Take care of your house now and it will beneift you in the future.
On very cold winter nights, allow your faucets to trickle slightly, especially if your pipes are located in a crawlspace. The running water prevents the pipes from freezing as quickly as they would otherwise. You can catch the water and use it for other household needs to prevent wasting it.
During the winter, preventing frozen pipes when you live in a small dwelling can be something good to know. Frozen pipes will not only stop your flow of water but can crack and damage pipes. By running a little water out of every faucet during the coldest parts of the day, you can avoid this.
Avoid dumping oil, fat, and grease in your drain. These substances will harden as soon as they cool down, and clog your drains. This is very true for garbage disposal, since fat will make the blades run less quickly and efficiently. To keep your drain running efficiently, dispose of fats and oils in other ways besides pouring them down the drain.
If your toilet is constantly developing moisture on the outside, you may want to consider turning up the heat in your bathroom. The biggest cause of "sweaty" toilets is cool and moist air. Believe it or not, this moisture could actually cause damage to your toilet, so it is crucial that you fix the problem.
If your sewer is backed up, there are things you can do to troubleshoot and clean, including renting equipment like a main line cable. However, often times this does not fully take care of the problem. A professional needs to assess the issue then, using a camera method, and thoroughly cleaning the main line.
To avoid freezing pipes in the winter, make sure to insulate any exposed pipes in you basement before winter comes. Pay extra attention to pipes near the outside walls. If you have had a problem with any particular pipe freezing in the past, apply some heat tape to insulate those pipes.
When chilly weather approaches, it is time to disconnect your water hoses from your outside faucets. If you forget to do this, water in the hoses can freeze and expand. This can cause the faucets and the connecting pipes inside your house to freeze and break. By simply rolling up your garden hoses and storing them for the winter, you can help prevent costly plumbing repairs.
Always check for leaks in and around your toilets. A great way to do to this is to drop a couple of food coloring drops into your toilet tank. If colored water appears in the toilet bowl, this means your toilet is leaking.
When getting an estimate from a contractor on a job, make sure to ask how long the written estimate is good for. For big jobs you usually want to get estimates from a few different plumbers. Knowing how long your estimate is valid will help you know what your time limit is for making a decision on who to hire.
If you are looking into becoming a plumber, there are a few things that you should know first. The most important thing is that plumbers who work for companies do not make a high salary. You should try to find a way to work for yourself, in order to increase your earnings.
Many people don't fully understand plumbing, so they pay whatever the plumber asks for. If you own your home, you should definitely be sure to learn enough to understand what the professional is accomplishing. You will not lose any money this way.
If the water pressure on your street exceeds 60 pounds, you many want to consider installing a pressure reducing valve. Too much water pressure is actually harmful to your plumbing system and could cause excess water pressure. A pressure reducing valve cuts down your water pressure by almost 50 percent.
Run dishwashers and washing machines at night, or during times when people are not using that much water. This will keep water pressure strong for showers and other things, while making sure that dishwashing and laundry still takes place in a timely manner. It also preserves energy costs and use.
To prepare for the cold weather, properly drain all outside faucet bibs and turn off the water supply to those faucets. A piece of foam taped to the outside bib can provide excellent insulation to prevent any remaining water from freezing or splurge for a specialty cover that comes complete with velcro closures.
When it comes to plumbing a great choice is to invest in brass fittings. Sure, they may be more expensive upfront, however their longevity is amazing compared to the alternatives, so you end up saving money. As an added bonus, the brass fittings look so much better than the other alternatives.
When it comes to plumbing an ounce of prevention is the best thing to prevent things from going haywire. In order to prevent clogging avoid doing things that would clog drains. Do not pour oil down the kitchen sink, and install hair catching filters in all your bath tubs. This will prevent a lot of unnecessary clogs.
Whenever you work outdoors for a prolonged period of time, take a break in a place where you will not be exposed to the sun. It may be easy to forget the sun's heat when you get focused on your work, but overexposure is still extremely dangerous.
As mentioned above, most periodic plumbing maintenance is simple and straightforward. Most repairs resulting from serious damage to your plumbing are not. Now that you know how to deal with the plubming issues in your home, you should be more prepared to prevent or mitigate the more serious problems that can result.

Google Search Supports Phonetic Typing
Google surprised me today, showing Arabic suggestions while I typed in English. So I tried typing something in Kuwait. It's not really accurate yet, if you type "soog" it won't give you any Arabic results. This will really come in handy, specially since my keyboard doesn't have Arabic letter prints. So I can't tell which key types what letter. Thank you for the unpleasant surprise Best Buy.
Google translate also supports this feature. Just make sure phonetic typing is checked. I used to use Yamli to do the translating, might as well stick with it for the time being too. As they have a lot more experience with translating English letters to Arabic words.

The aim of this volume is to cover the standard topics of mechanics of materials as well as subject matter of a more advanced and specialized nature. The topics discussed include the analysis and design of structural members subjected to axial loads, torsion and bending, as well as such fundamental concepts as stress, strain, elastic and inelastic behaviour and strain energy. Other topics of general interest are the transformations of stress and strain, stress concentrations, deflections of beams, behaviour of columns and energy methods. More specialized subjects are thermal and prestrain effects, pressure vessels, nonprismatic members, discontinuity functions, shear centre and inelastic bending. The book is designed in such a way that teachers have the opportunity to select the topics that they feel are the most fundamental and relevant. Each section includes a number of problems for homework assignments and discussions.

The most popular design is the roped elevator. In roped elevators, the car is raised and lowered by traction steel ropes rather than pushed from below. The ropes are attached to the car, and looped around a sheave. The sheave is connected to an electric motor. When the motor turns one way, the sheave raises the elevator; when the motor turns the other way, the sheave lowers the elevator. In gearless elevators, the motor rotates the sheaves directly. In geared elevators, the motor turns a gear train that rotates the sheave. Typically, the sheave, the motor and the control system are all housed in a machine room above the elevator shaft.

Mixed-species foraging groups are well known for a broad range of taxonomic groups. Explanations have focused around 2 primary mechanisms: Anti-predator behaviour and maximising foraging efficiency. In the ocean, feeding assemblages can involve seabirds, fish, cetaceans, pinnipeds and combinations of these groups. Here we examine association patterns between North Atlantic minke whales and seabirds. Based on the unique feeding strategies of different seabird guilds, predictions were made on the relationship between seabirds and whales in joint feeding assemblages (who profits from whom). These predictions were tested by modelling the presence of a whale with seabird aggregations using logistic regressions, involving presence/absence of seabird guilds, group sizes and measures of diversity as explanatory variables. A strong positive relationship was found between the presence of a whale with a seabird aggregation and the presence and group size of auks, the only seabird group able to concentrate fish on their own. No other seabird guild was relevant in predicting the presence of a whale. This suggests that 'beater' or 'pirate' theory best explains the relationship, with minke whales taking advantage of prey concentrations generated by the feeding behaviour of auks, and other bird groups taking advantage of dead, stunned or scattered prey left by the whales. © Inter-Research 2011.

To safeguard the welfare of finishing pigs, known for their strong motivation to explore, provision of an adequate quantity of enrichment material is important. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of the accessibility of straw provided in racks on exploratory behaviour in pigs. Two hundred and sixteen finishing pigs with undocked tails were housed in eight groups of 27 pigs each for 12 weeks. They were kept in pens with a partly slatted floor and access to an outdoor area and were fed with liquid feed twice daily. To vary accessibility of enrichment material the number of filled straw racks (one, three, six or eight) provided in a pen was changed in each group every 21 days using a cross-over Latin square design. Video recordings were made for 16.5. h on the 2nd and 18th day after changing the number of filled racks. The number of pigs showing exploratory behaviour towards the racks ("exploring filled rack") as well as towards straw which dropped from the racks onto the lying area ("exploring straw on the floor") was recorded by 10. min scan sampling. Displacements from the racks were recorded continuously. Data were analysed using linear mixed-effects models. Exploratory behaviour followed a daily biperiodical pattern with the highest levels recorded 3. h after morning feeding (7:00-10:00. h) and about 2. h before and after feeding in the afternoon (14:30-19:00. h). The proportion of pigs per scan exploring filled racks (p<0.001) as well as exploring straw on the floor (p<0.007) increased monotonically as the number of filled racks increased. The rate of displacements from the rack tended to decrease monotonically with an increasing number of racks (p=0.083). It seems that provision of more enrichment material increasingly stimulates the exploratory behaviour of finishing pigs at least up to 19. cm rack space per pig. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

In this study, the effects on the claw health of dairy cows of three different floor types and access to pasture were investigated on 35 farms. The farms were fitted with a given floor type in the indoor walking area of a cubicle housing system: a solid rubber, mastic asphalt or slatted concrete floor. Because we chose farms on which the given floor type was in good condition, the data presented show what can be achieved on these types of floors under ideal circumstances. Cows on half of the farms per floor type had access to pasture during the grazing period. Each farm was visited three times at approx. 6-month intervals at the end of the winter indoor-housing period and at the end of the summer period, i.e. after the period with access to pasture on half of the farms. During each visit, the claw health of the same 10 cows per farm was assessed on the occasion of routine claw trimming. The proportion of cows with haemorrhages increased from mastic asphalt to rubber and slatted concrete floors. A lower proportion of cows kept on mastic asphalt was affected by white-line fissures and needed intermittent claw-trimming, an indicator for lameness. Cows housed in cubicle systems with slatted concrete floors were at the lowest risk of having heel-horn erosions. Access to pasture was associated with a lower incidence of slight white-line fissures and dermatitis digitalis. A higher proportion of cows with sole haemorrhages and sole ulcers were found on all floor types at the end of the summer period than at the end of the winter indoor-housing period. Floor type did not influence the presence of sole ulcers and deep white-line fissures. In conclusion, the effect of floor type on claw health was slight, and none of the investigated floor types was clearly superior to the others. Access to pasture was not effective in reducing the presence of most types of claw lesions associated with the floor type used in the indoor walking area. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

In this study, we investigated whether goats can distinguish a member of their own group from one belonging to a different group even when the head of the goat in question cannot be seen. In the experiment, a total of 45 adult female goats (walkers) were trained to walk along a passageway at the end of which they learnt to expect food (trial run). Walking down this corridor, they passed another adult female goat (stimulus goat) whose trunk and hind legs alone were visible. Using 19 individuals, ten pairs of stimulus goats consisting of one goat from the walker's group and one from a different group were matched in terms of body size, constitution, colour and coat length. In addition, the stimulus goat from the same group as the walker had to be higher ranking than the latter to avoid being attacked. The walkers completed two, four or six trial runs depending on the number of pairs suitable for a given walker. The walker's exploratory behaviour (observing and sniffing at the stimulus goat) was recorded. Data from 109 trial runs were analysed using generalised linear mixed-effects models with crossed random effects. On average, the walker spent a total of 8.7 s exploring the stimulus goat visually and olfactorily if the latter was from a different group and only about half as long (4.2 s) if it was from her own group. In particular, the time a walker spent observing a stimulus goat whilst approaching the latter was significantly longer if the stimulus goat belonged to a different group than to her own (2.5 s as opposed to 1.4 s). Moreover, a stimulus goat from a different group was sniffed at significantly longer (4.6 s) than one from the same group (1.9 s). Results suggest that goats can easily discriminate between members of their own group and those of a different group even when the latter's heads are hidden. Olfactory and visual cues are probably important for identifying group members. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.

In alpine regions, bells are used to relocate free-ranging grazers like cows and goats. Considering that goats have a well-developed hearing capacity, sounds (e.g. a chime of a bell) may act as stressors depending on their characteristics. The aim of this study was to test whether a non-uniform sound (chime of a bell) varying in amplitude and frequency and a uniform sound (sinusoidal tone) with continuously increasing amplitude and constant frequency lead to stress responses in terms of behaviour and heartbeat. Twenty-nine goats were tested individually in a test arena in two sessions, each lasting five consecutive days with one trial per day. A day before the first trial, reference values were collected without playback. During the following five trials, playbacks were conducted. Differences in behaviour and heartbeat parameters between test and reference values were analysed by using generalised linear mixed-effects models. During the first trial, the relative feeding duration was decreased and the relative alertness duration was increased during both stimuli, but more when goats were exposed to the non-uniform than the uniform sound. For both stimuli, the relative feeding duration increased (trial. ×. stimulus: P=. 0.05) and the relative alertness duration decreased (trial. ×. stimulus: P=. 0.004) from the first to the fifth trial but returned to the levels of the reference values sooner when goats were exposed to the uniform than the non-uniform sound. Cardiac activity was not affected by the stimuli. Altogether, the chime of a bell led to higher behavioural arousal than the uniform sinusoidal tone, indicating a potential of the chime to being more aversive to goats than a uniform sound. With repeated exposure to the stimuli, goats habituated to both stimuli, but habituation was faster to the sinusoidal sound than to the chime of a bell. Free-ranging goats in alpine regions usually are equipped with bells 24. h a day during the summer season. Thus, the question arises whether the long-term exposure to the chime of a bell might have negative effects on animal welfare. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.

From an agricultural and environmental policy perspective there is a pressing need for up-to-date emission data on ammonia (NH 3) from dairy farming. The main aim of this study was to determine NH 3 emissions for the most common dairy farming situation in Switzerland of loose housing with an outdoor exercise area. Measurements were taken on six commercial farms, in naturally ventilated cubicle loose housing systems with solid floors and an outdoor exercise area located alongside the housing. The variation in climate over the course of a year was covered by a total of twelve measuring periods, in two out of three seasons (summer, transition period, winter) per farm. A tracer ratio method with two tracer gases (SF 6, SF 5CF 3) was employed to determine emissions from two areas of different source intensity. A variety of accompanying parameters was used to characterise each measuring situation and to derive the relevant influencing variables. The daily average NH 3 emission across all farms varied from 31 to 67-g LU -1-d -1 in summer, from 16 to 44-g LU -1-d -1 in the transition period, and from 6 to 23-g LU -1-d -1 in winter (1 LU-=-500-kg live weight). From a linear mixed-effects model the wind speed in the housing (p-<-0.001) and the interaction of outside temperature and the urea content of the tank milk (p-<-0.001) emerged as significant variables influencing NH 3 emission. A model-based calculation with bootstrapped variance components was used to calculate yearly averaged emission factors for two mountain and plain regions and two wind speeds (0.3 and 0.5-m-s -1). The model input was based on milk urea contents from commercial dairy farms and air temperatures over a five-year period. The calculated NH 3 emission factors, which thus accounted for regional differences due to climatic conditions and feeding levels, ranged between 22 and 25-g LU -1-d -1. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

In a semi-natural environment, a lot of the daily activity of pigs is spent in exploratory and foraging behaviour. Providing enrichment material attractive to the pigs both over the short and long term is therefore important in intensive housing systems. This study aimed to investigate the effect of four types of point-source enrichment materials and four types of litter on the behaviour of finishing pigs. In experiment 1, pigs were offered cut straw or cut straw enriched with maize kernels as litter on the lying area, as well as a cylindrical dispenser filled with a compressed straw block or a straw rack filled with cut straw. In experiment 2, chopped straw or chopped Miscanthus giganteus was provided as litter on the lying area, along with a straw-pellet dispenser or bark compost in a trough. In both experiments, 96 finishing pigs with undocked tails were housed in groups of six pigs in pens with partly-slatted floors. Half of the groups were fed restrictively, the other half ad libitum. Every three weeks, the enrichment materials were replaced. Exploratory behaviour directed towards the enrichment material, the pen equipment and pen mates was videorecorded and analysed by means of one-minute focal-scan sampling on the second and eighteenth day after provision of a new enrichment material. Data were analysed using linear mixed-effect models. In both experiments, the frequency with which the enrichment material was explored was influenced by the interaction of type of material and day (p< 0.001). On the second day after provision of enrichment, the favoured material was cut straw enriched with maize kernels in experiment 1, and the straw-pellet dispenser in experiment 2. On day 18, straw as litter with or without maize, the straw rack, chopped straw, chopped Miscanthus giganteus and the pellet dispenser were used with a similar, and still relatively high, frequency. The least-explored materials were the straw block and bark compost. In both experiments, pigs fed ad libitum explored the materials less than half as frequently as those fed restrictively (p< 0.001). Manipulation of the pen showed a pattern inverse to that of manipulation of the material, but a similar pattern with respect to feeding regime. Materials had no discernible influence on the manipulation of pen mates. In conclusion, our results indicate that both the point-source enrichment and the litter materials provided constituted adequate enrichment for small groups of finishing pigs. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

Confined goats spend a substantial part of the day feeding. A poorly designed feeding place increases the risk of feeding in nonphysiological body postures, and even injury. Scientifically validated information on suitable dimensions of feeding places for loose-housed goats is almost absent from the literature. The aim of the present study was, therefore, to determine feeding place dimensions that would allow goats to feed in a species-appropriate, relaxed body posture. A total of 27 goats with a height at the withers of 62 to 80 cm were included in the study. Goats were tested individually in an experimental feeding stall that allowed the height difference between the feed table, the standing area of the forelegs, and a feeding area step (difference in height between forelegs and hind legs) to be varied. The goats accessed the feed table via a palisade feeding barrier. The feed table was equipped with recesses at varying distances to the feeding barrier (5-55 cm in 5-cm steps) at angles of 30, 60, 90, 120, or 150 (feeding angle), which were filled with the goats preferred food. In 18 trials, balanced for order across animals, each animal underwent all possible combinations of feeding area step (3 levels: 0, 10, and 20 cm) and of difference in height between feed table and standing area of forelegs (6 levels: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 cm). The minimum and maximum reach at which the animals could reach feed on the table with a relaxed body posture was determined for each combination. Statistical analysis was performed using mixed-effects models. The animals were able to feed with a relaxed posture when the feed table was at least 10 cm higher than the standing height of the goats forelegs. Larger goats achieved smaller minimum reaches and minimum reach increased if the goats head and neck were angled. Maximum reach increased with increasing height at withers and height of the feed table. The presence of a feeding area step had no influence on minimum and maximum reach. Based on these results, the goats feeding place can be designed to ensure that the animals are able to reach all of the feed in the manger or on the feed table with a relaxed posture, thus avoiding injuries and nonphysiological stress on joints and hooves. A feeding area step up to a maximum of 20 cm need not be taken into account in terms of feeding reach. However, the feed table must be raised at least 10 cm above the standing area to allow the goats to feed in a species-appropriate, relaxed posture.

In barns with an automatic milking system (AMS), both the milking frequency and the number of nighttime milkings vary between cows. A low milking frequency might indicate problems in gaining access to the milking unit. Also, nighttime lighting in the waiting area of the AMS and in the milking unit increases exposure to light at night and could suppress nocturnal melatonin synthesis. These effects could result in increased stress, suppressed immune response, and poor udder health. A total of 125 cows (14-16/farm) on 8 farms with AMS were selected based on their average milking frequency. Eight to 10 saliva samples per cow were taken over the course of 4 days, and cortisol, IgA and melatonin concentrations were determined. Somatic cell counts (SCC) were determined in milk samples. Milking frequency had no significant relationship with mean cortisol and IgA levels, but a higher milking frequency tended to be associated with lower SCC levels. Nocturnal melatonin levels tended to be negatively associated with the number of nighttime milkings. In conclusion, no indication of increased stress or reduced immune defense was found in relation to milking frequency on farms with an AMS.

Detecting lame cows is important in improving animal welfare. Automated tools are potentially useful to enable identification and monitoring of lame cows. The goals of this study were to evaluate the suitability of various physiological and behavioral parameters to automatically detect lameness in dairy cows housed in a cubicle barn. Lame cows suffering from a claw horn lesion (sole ulcer or white line disease) of one claw of the same hind limb (n=32; group L) and 10 nonlame healthy cows (group C) were included in this study. Lying and standing behavior at night by tridimensional accelerometers, weight distribution between hind limbs by the 4-scale weighing platform, feeding behavior at night by the nose band sensor, and heart activity by the Polar device (Polar Electro Oy, Kempele, Finland) were assessed. Either the entire data set or parts of the data collected over a 48-h period were used for statistical analysis, depending upon the parameter in question. The standing time at night over 12 h and the limb weight ratio (LWR) were significantly higher in group C as compared with group L, whereas the lying time at night over 12 h, the mean limb difference (weight), and the standard deviation (SD) of the weight applied on the limb taking less weight were significantly lower in group C as compared with group L. No significant difference was noted between the groups for the parameters of heart activity and feeding behavior at night. The locomotion score of cows in group L was positively correlated with the lying time and weight, whereas it was negatively correlated with LWR and SD. The highest sensitivity (0.97) for lameness detection was found for the parameter SD [specificity of 0.80 and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.84]. The highest specificity (0.90) for lameness detection was present for weight (sensitivity=0.78; AUC=0.88) and LWR (sensitivity=0.81; AUC=0.87). The model considering the data of SD together with lying time at night was the best predictor of cows being lame, accounting for 40% of the variation in the likelihood of a cow being lame (sensitivity=0.94; specificity=0.80; AUC=0.86). In conclusion, the data derived from the 4-scale-weighing platform, either alone or combined with the lying time at night over 12 h, represent the most valuable parameters for automated identification of lame cows suffering from a claw horn lesion of one individual hind limb.

So, I got myself a job. Kinda had to eventually, though doing the freelance thing has been really interesting. (The constant hustle, administrivia, etc. really isn't my bag long-term, though.)
Anyway, I start on Monday, May 14th, as Community Manager, Developer Relations, at RIM.
I'll just give a few of you a moment to enjoy that needle getting yanked off a record sound in your heads.
Yep, I am well aware that I've said I wouldn't work there. (Side note: never bother to use "never" statements in life; it just makes the gods laugh.) There are certainly plenty of areas of the company where I still wouldn't work. I know too much of the history and not enough has changed.
Except then the sneaky bastards went and posted a community management role, and stuck "Developer Relations" onto it. Professional geek wrangling. Which is about as up my alley as jobs get.
Additionally, it's an area of the company that is being built/re-built, and there's a very different feel there. And not a single person I've talked to was wearing rose-coloured glasses of any kind. People know shit's broken. And they're of the "How're we gonna fix it?" and "What're we going to build next?" ilk. Those are my kinda folks. It also didn't hurt that I'd be working in close proximity to some people who're already friends.
Do I have concerns about going back to work for a big company, and one that clearly has some big issues? Sure. I'd be an idiot if I didn't. And I don't tend to drink anybody's Koolaid. But of the offers I received, this one ended up making the most sense. We'll see if my brain and gut were right. 🙂
In the community management game, you learn very quickly that there are two kinds of people who complain: the ones who're genuinely trying to do something, and are just frustrated, and the trolls. If I can help out the folks who are genuinely trying to do something, I'll be happy.
PostRank gave me the opportunity to be a part of building a new industry. It was fascinating and educational stuff (on good days). 🙂 I suspect what there is to learn about rebuilding part of an industry will be even more so. And so it begins…

Congratulations! Be a Shift Disturber!
Welcome to the team – let's rock and roll this!
That's really cool. Although I confess, I do not understand what your job is. I've been out of the industry for a while…
Excellent news! Congrats!! Definitely sounds right up your alley!
Woo – congrats Melle! What a good decision on RIM's part to bring you onto their team. Sounds like a step in the right direction for them 🙂
Awesome news, Melle! Congratulations. Looking forward to seeing you even more now.
Amazing Post! All the best with this new challenge!
Congratulations! For this economy, it seems you got another job really quickly. Large company or small, if I can put my Albert Einstein action figure on the shelf over my desk, it's all good.
Pour yourself a cup of ambition, yawn and stretch and try to come to life….wtg Melle.

Germany: no punishment for UK, but EU exit good for no one
- by Simon Thompson
- in Finance
- — Jun 20, 2017
After nearly a year of waffling, Britain on Monday finally opens negotiations with its European Union counterparts about leaving the bloc, with the final outcome, due in 2019, as important as it now seems unpredictable.
Mr Hammond appeared to kick the government's 100,000 net migration target into the long grass, saying the focus after Brexit would be to "home-grow the skills we need" before seeking to significantly cut the number of workers entering the UK.
Barnier has said a divorce deal should be ready by October next year to give time for parliamentary approval. The price of such a deal remains unclear. This is however easier said than done, as is the ability to pursue a softer approach in the negotiations. With or without a deal, Britain will be out of the European Union on March 30, 2019. The party has refused to give a time frame for reaching a deal, though May is due in Brussels for an European Union summit on June 22-23 when she will want to show she has a solid grip on power. The prime minister is still trying to secure the support of a fringe party whose votes she needs to form a government.
The sensitive issue has been thrown into further doubt by May's efforts to seek a deal with Northern Ireland's ultra-conservative Democratic Unionist Party to stay in power after the British election.
After facing criticism for not meeting survivors on Thursday, May visited a hospital on Friday to speak to some of the people who escaped the fire.
Britain begins its Brexit negotiations this week in a much weaker position than it was just a month or so ago, though it was weaker than it seemed to imagine.
In the long-term I get the impression that this election result, and what may follow over the course of the next two years and beyond, is now more likely to ensure a far better outcome for the United Kingdom economy than we appeared to be heading for pre-election.
Three key issues will dominate the first phase of the talks.
Asked if that meant no transitional arrangements, she replied: "Well, I'm extremely optimistic that we will find there is a lot we can agree on".
"In my experience recently, businesses that look over the garden fence have gone: "Hmm, (the) grass is not quite as dark and unforgiving as you might expect", Andrew told the BBC.
While the European Union negotiating team led by Barnier has been ready for months, British efforts on Brexit stalled even after it triggered the two-year process on March 29.
But the business community and many lawmakers want to retain closer ties with Europe, and they are heaping pressure on the prime minister to change her approach.
"We should be protecting jobs, protecting economic growth and protecting prosperity", he said in Luxembourg last week.
On her part, Britain's Prime Minister said that she was keen to stick to her planned timetable and would start the Brexit talks in Brussels.
The British side will be led by the Secretary of State for Exiting the EU, David Davis, while the EU side will be led by the chief negotiator, Michel Barnier.
One diplomat said Ms May tried to "hijack" the summit by drawing other leaders into Brexit talks, though European Union officials played down suggestions of any agenda row with London.
Theresa May can ill-afford to alienate this group, or indeed any other within her party.style="text-align: center;"

Euroseas Ltd. Announces the Acquisition of a Drybulk Vessel and Short-term Loan Facility
Euroseas Ltd., an owner and operator of drybulk and container carrier vessels and provider of seaborne transportation for drybulk and containerized cargoes, announced today that it signed a memorandum of agreement to purchase the M/V Capetan Tassos, a Panamax size drybulk carrier of 75,100 dwt built in 2000 in Japan for approximately £4.4 million. The vessel is expected to be delivered to the Company in January 2017. The Company also announced that it reached an agreement with a company affiliated with its CEO to draw a £2 million loan to finance working capital needs.
Interest on the loan is payable quarterly, and there are no principal repayments until January 2018 when the loan matures. The Company may elect to add the interest to the outstanding principal amount. Under certain limited circumstances, the Company can pay principal and interest in equity, and the loan is convertible in common stock of the Company at the option of the lender at certain times.
The agreement was negotiated on an arms-length basis with market terms and is subject to customary legal documentation. Aristides Pittas, Chairman and CEO of Euroseas commented: "We are very pleased to announce the acquisition of M/V Capetan Tassos as we believe the sector is approaching a turning point after a long period of depressed rates.
Furthermore, to facilitate the acquisition and provide additional working capital, we arranged for a short term loan with an affiliated party; the loan was negotiated by an independent committee of our Board of Directors and carries what we believe to be better-than market terms." After the acquisition of M/V Capetan Tassos, the Company's fleet will consist of 13 vessels, including four Panamax drybulk carriers, one Handymax drybulk carrier, one Kamsarmax drybulk carrier, and seven Feeder containerships. Euroseas Ltd. was formed on May 5, 2005 under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands to consolidate the ship owning interests of the Pittas family of Athens, Greece, which has been in the shipping business over the past 140 years.
Euroseas trades on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the ticker ESEA since January 31, 2007. Euroseas operates in the dry cargo, drybulk and container shipping markets. Euroseas' operations are managed by Eurobulk Ltd., an ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 14001:2004 certified affiliated ship management company and Eurobulk (FE) Ltd.
Inc., also an affiliated ship management company, which are responsible for the day-to-day commercial and technical management and operations of the vessels. Euroseas employs its vessels on spot and period charters and through pool arrangements. Including M/V Capetan Tassos, the Company has a fleet of 13 vessels, including 4 Panamax drybulk carriers, 1 Handymax drybulk carrier, 1 Kamsarmax drybulk carrier, and 7 Feeder containerships.
Euroseas 6 drybulk carriers have a total cargo capacity of 426,372 dwt, its 7 containerships have a cargo capacity of 11,525 teu.
The Company has also signed contracts for the construction of one Kamsarmax (82,000 dwt) fuel efficient drybulk carrier.
Including the new-building, the total cargo capacity of the Company's drybulk vessels will be 508,372 dwt.
