It will require approximately 50 billion Libyan dinars. The overalousing throughout the country is estimated at 450 billion Libyan dinars. One of the major challenges is that this government is an interim government, soaffect the next 10 to 15 years, do you see yourself making this kind of decisions or would you want to wait until there is a proper government in place?
Actually we have already made such long-term decisions, for example the railway is going to take more than 10 years to complete. The underground projects in Tripoli and Benghazi will take almost 12 years to complete and the go ahead for this should happen soon. Therefore the Ministry of Transportation will have to make many important decisions for strategic projects over the next few months. Of course it will take time to see those projects up and running but the decisions will be made very soon. Therefore the government is willing to make long-term decisions. How do you perceivse projects?
We in the government see that it is very important, although the culture of Libyan society is very conservative in this particular respect. Whenever you talk about the private sector, people don't seem to be happy with the idea because the government during the Gaddafi era was taking on everything without giving any shares to the private sector. People are afraid of the private sector taking over these projects but we are changing that culture by organizing workshops, participating in interviews and trying to explain to people that countries cannot be built by governments only and that the private sector must be involved, for example by helping the government to build infrastructure. How do you see the role of foreign countries in reconstructing the transportation sector?
I would say that time is our main challenge. This interim government has a very short amount of time to work with and we would like to achieve everything, which is almost impossible. We will try at least to start most of the projects that we have submitted to the government. Finally, what is your personal vision and what would you like to be your footprint when you leave your tenure as a Minister?

[model.parallelize()] RuntimeError: Expected all tensors to be on the same device, but found at least two devices, cuda:0 and cuda:1!
Katerina_Margatina (Katerina Margatina) February 15, 2023, 9:59pm 1
Hello, I’m really struggling with setting up model parallelism for a large T5 model. I have 2 GPUs and I want to evaluate (inference only) a flan-t5-large model (as it does not fit in one GPU).
I load the model:
model = T5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained
I put the inputs in the gpu:
input_ids=batch[0].to
attention_mask=batch[1].to
labels=batch[3].to
But during the forward function
outputs = self.model
I get RuntimeError: Expected all tensors to be on the same device, but found at least two devices, cuda:0 and cuda:1!.
I check that all input tensors are in device='cuda:0' and as for the model:
model.device_map
{0: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, ...], 1: [12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, ...]}
The error is specifically in line 260 in modeling_t5.py where I see that self.weight is in 'cuda:0' and hidden_states in 'cuda:1'.
I would really appreciate some help with this! Thanks in advance.

Calling model.parallelize() and then model.to(device) immediately after looks suspicious as you would be trampling over the parallelize function’s own .to() call so I would consider removing the model.to(device) call in your script.

She took it out from her drawer and wrapped it in a piece of tissue before giving it away. The one having her period nodded before leaving the room.
If you’re an Indonesian woman, you must understand what I’m talking about. In Indonesia, menstruation is not something to talk about openly. It belongs to whispers and secret conversations between women. If a woman is having her period, she wouldn’t even say it frankly. She would use a metaphor like “lagi dapet” (literally just meant she’s having something). Or she would tell people she is currently not performing the salat, or the prayer, because Muslim women on her period are exempted from having to perform the daily prayers.
I never lied about my menstruation after that, but I still unconsciously cover it up from time to time, like most women in Indonesia. I used a metaphor when I talked about period. I quickly and discreetly shove sanitary napkins in my pocket where no one could see it when I had to carry them around. I pushed through stomach cramps and took painkillers so I could still go to work.

It is the first time that such a large selection of Carl ANDRE's work has left the United States to be exhibited in France: the Museum of Modern Art in Paris is hosting a major retrospective of the American artist until 12 February 2017 Around forty monumental works and smaller sculptures can be seen alongside detailed documentation bringing together the early works of this major American artist, notably manuscripts and poems. Take advantage of the last weeks of this exhibition to discover a large portion of his work, largely unseen until now…
One of the major collections of art in the world is on show at the Krakow Museum in Poland. A collection assembled by Princess Izabela Czartoryska from all over Europe more than 200 years ago: a rich collection of 250,000 manuscripts and historical documents and 593 major art works, as Joanna Berendt writes in The New York Times. No less than Rembrandt, Raphael, Dürer, Renoir, François Clouet, Pieter Brueghel…all these masterpieces now belong to Poland due to the recent signing of an agreement between the Polish government, represented by the Minister of Culture Piotr Glinski and the heirs to the famous Czartoryski collection. The cost of the transaction is said to be around 200 million, bearing in mind that a masterpiece such as Lady with an Ermine (1489-1490) by Leonardo da Vinci , which now belongs to the Polish state, would largely exceed this amount alone if it appeared on the market…

His business had run out of money.\nMike owned a deli with a cult following. Every week customers waited in long lines to buy one of his sandwiches. Anyone familiar with Mike’s deli assumed he was “killing it.”\nInstead he was broke. How could this be?\nWas someone stealing money? Were his books being “cooked”?\nNobody knew. So, Mike started to investigate.\nIt didn’t take long to figure out what was wrong.\nThe first problem was bookkeeping. Yes, he had professional looking financial statements. But they didn’t match reality. Invoices were missing. Statements weren’t reconciled. Deposits were off.\nNot only did Mike lack a strong grasp of his business’ finances, he was making decisions based on numbers that didn’t exist. It was a recipe for disaster.\nThe second problem was debt. Six months earlier Mike borrowed money to expand his business. But he didn’t borrow enough. His bookkeeper should have sounded alarm bells. Instead she played “whack-a-mole” with outstanding bills. Whichever vendor complained the most got paid with the limited cash on hand. Bills kept piling up until the finances were swamped.\nLastly, payroll was bloated. Some of this was intentional. Mike was training additional staff to further expand his business. This was a good idea, but you need to have spare cash to do it. It was a luxury he couldn’t afford.\nOnce Mike knew the causes of his problems, he felt overwhelmed. He asked me a simple question. “Am I done?”\nThe answer was clear to me. “Absolutely, not”\n1. Sales are half the battle.\nMike had done an awesome job of building sales. This is hard to do. If your business has no sales, it’s a legit reason to close. But this wasn’t his case. The problem was bad financial management. For the past several years Mike was so focused on operations he had taken his eye off of the numbers. This was on him and he knew it. Although the situation wasn’t good, its easier to fix a bookkeeping problem than building sales.\nWhen my bakery first opened our sales were terrible. On our six month anniversary the business was barely surviving financially. What our bank statements didn’t show was how much our customers loved us. We just didn’t have enough of them. We soldiered on, word spread and sales grew. Two years later, things were going so well, we moved to a larger location.\nMike’s business has a cult like following. Some of his customers buy from his multiple times per week. Its easy to assume if sales are strong your customers love you. Not true. My local Walgreens is always busy. When was the last time you heard someone say they love Walgreens?\nA customer base that loves your business is a big asset. Their loyalty can be the foundation of long term success. This is something that shouldn’t be disregarded.\n3. Cash poor, asset rich.\nMike was broke but he wasn’t poor. His business had a great brand and sales were strong. He also owned 100% of his company.\nIf you’re in Mike’s shoes and you need cash, there’s two options: Borrow money or sell equity in your business.\nBecause Mike’s financial problems are fixable he shouldn’t have a hard time getting capital. Even if a bank isn’t willing to lend him money, I bet he could find an investor in his community. Best of all he doesn’t need to sell a huge stake of equity to solve his financial problems. In other words, he could still be the majority owner.\n4. Do you want to keep going?\nWhen things are tough, you have to make a simple decision: Keep going or go home.\nMike didn’t want to give up. He loved running his deli. But he didn’t want to make his situation worse. Once he understood how to overcome his challenges he was excited to get to work.\nThat was a few months ago. Today things are getting better. In a few years I’m sure he will be doing great.\nHave you closed a business? Are you struggling to keep on going? Send me an email with you experiences.\nhttps://makegreatdough.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/fancycrave-584274-unsplash-e1534368574178.jpg 512 768 Ian Gurfield http://makegreatdough.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Wordmark.jpg Ian Gurfield2018-08-15 16:30:402018-08-15 16:30:40When to close a business" |

Groups and one-to-one sessions for Children & Young People
Step into the world of the horse…
Adventures with Horses engage with, and understand the language of horses and ponies in a natural environment.
Explore being with horses... learning from horses... and connecting with horses...
We provide a safe natural environment with horses and ponies f Suitable for those who have had very little to do with horses in the past, or those who have already ridden at a riding school, but never got the opportunity to really engage with a horse or pony. We do not offer horse riding, but there are also some good local riding stables close by.
We also Further information is on the next page Please click here
What is the Art of Horse Whispering?
In our Art of Horse Whispering sessions children and young people• Observing and interpreting how horses communicate
• Understanding how horses behave naturally in a herd
For one-to-one sessions from £45 for one hour and then each additional 30 mins £15
Full day/five hours for 2-4 people - £75 per person
On our Art of Horse Whispering workshops and sessions for children and young people we adventure and explore how to enter a relationship with horses which is power with, not power over.
Becoming a horse whisperer takes a life time of being around horses, there are no quick routes, but many of the great horse whisperers' developed their skills at a young age by getting the chance to learn how to connect with horses in nature - and that is the part we will be exploring.
In modern times not that many of us get the chance to grow up around horses and just "be" with them and learn from them. In these workshops and sessions children and young people get the chance to do just that. They learn horse connection in away that is safe, informative and creative. They will not be riding the horses or learning to train or control them, instead, by paying attention to the horses subtle nuances, they will be learning to become their co-creative partners.
We are based in a beautiful natural environment on Dartmoor. The venue is unique in the fact it is not part of a commercial equestrian centre, though it does have good facilities, and is professionally run, it offers a peaceful, quiet, private undisturbed space to be with horses.
Although our Art of Horse Whispering courses are not framed to offer learning or therapy, the horses by their natural biological make-up will be asking us to stay connected, authentic and mindful and this can be very therapeutic.

Q: Type Bitmap an) I get this error on the 3rd line of code in Eclipse:
The method createScaledBitmap(Bitmap, int, int, boolean) in the t
int newWidth = myWallpaperManager.getDesiredMinimumWidth();
int newHeight = myWallpaperManager.getDesiredMinimumHeight();R.drawable.kabacloseup, newWidth, newHeight, false);
myWallpaperManager.setResource(resizedBitmap);
Can you tell me how to make createScaledBitmap accept the arguments?
I also get this error on the 4th line:
The method setResource(int) in the type WallpaperManager is not applicable for the arguments (Bitmap)
opt.outopt.outbabacloseup, opt);
myWallpaperManager.setBitmap(b);
myCurrentImageName = "kabacloseup";
A: You have used Resource id(R.drawable.kabacloseup which is int) instead of Bitmap in createScaledBitmap(Bitmap, int, int, boolean) method.
WallpaperManager setResource(int resid) method takes resource id, not bitmap.
A: I think you want to do this : myWallpaperManager.setImageBitmap(resizedBitmap);
nop ?
for the Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(... you can't pass R.drawable.kabacloseup as an argument, you have to retrieve it as a bitmap before :kabacloseup)
A: You need to create a Bitmap from your drawable first:
Bitmap b);
And then use it in Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(). Hope this helps.

kind of suburban.
Please stop the snide comments and misinformation.
"In a time of financial distress, why shouldn't the RTA be scaled back to its core service area, sparing it the potshots and endless yawping from knuckleheads in Kane and McHenry Counties."
O.K., here's the deal. The suburban areas take care of the approximately $40 million Pace deficit and $60 million Metra one, and decide among themselves how to spit it. Chicago, you are on the hook for the burgeoning $155 million CTA deficit and pension problems, problems which Daley appointees created. Tell Daley and friends to quit yawping.
I meant split it. Also, from your later post, it is apparently only a $32 million Pace problem and $40 million Metra one. Chicago, you are still on the hook for $155 million.
9:36/10:17--
If suburban Cook County funds your proposed deficit solution in proportion to its CTA/Metra/Pace ridership shares I suspect you might have a deal.
An important part of any long-term solution is to find a way to stop the identification of service boards with either the City of Chicago or the suburbs. Consider combining Pace bus and CTA bus into one operating unit and Metra rail and CTA rail into one operating unit and tuck both into a regional transit authority that has operational responsibilities and hence direct financial accountability.
Currently, the RTA has financial oversight responsibility but no "skin in the game" as it were. Other than perhaps a measure of public censure from a few cranky bloggers, the RTA has not felt any adverse consequences from its wrongheaded and possibly unlawful decision to approve seriously unbalanced 2007 service board budgets.
When you have to make payroll, it concentrates your attention a bit more than the RTA Board has demonstrated.
10:17 here, now we are closer to making a deal.
However, there are several conditions:
1. I have no problem with a unified transit system, even with separate bus and rail operating divisions. However, its governing body must be properly apportioned--including abolishing the CTA Board and the mayor's control over it. Also, other players are not entitled to political set asides. Are Daley and Stroger willing to settle for that in return for tax increases for the RTA, and are Blagojevich, Madigan and Jones willing to exert enough leadership to put that through? I think we both agree that the current RTA board doesn't have what it takes to accomplish the proposed increased role, and should be reconstituted, as it was in 1983. Giving the unions a platform for the "job action" threat shows where the RTA's priorities lie.
2. Any idea that suburban Cook County is responsible for a proportion of the CTA's deficit depends on (a) an accurate measure of its share, and (b) eliminating service overlap with Pace, as the Auditor General recommended and the legislature flubbed. It must be based on passenger miles, not boardings, and it must be based on some authority mandating which agency serves which area.
Of course, if we get the unified transit system, your suggestion that suburban Cook County subsidize its undefined portion of the CTA becomes moot. In any event, SB572 is so out of tune with the proper approach of one operating entity, or at least assuring efficiently run agencies, that now I have little care about what happens to it in its current form.
The second blogger and Mr. Jones hit the nail on the head. Yaers and years of mis-management, patronage and bloat at the expense of all. Sure, it's conviemnent to rail on suburbanites and "take your eye off the ball" as Daley wants us to do.
11/17 9:25 a.m.--
I can't speak to the vanpool costs, but surely the demand response services have a cost structure similar to ADA paratransit, e.g., roughly $25/ride. It may be true that Pace's current share of the cost of demand response service provided by local communities is less than that full cost. My focus, however, was not on Pace's current share of those costs but rather at the costly nature of the service itself.
The suburban communities that want more demand response service and no doubt struggle to pay the high cost of such service are trying to off-load those costs to the region. The current version of SB 572 allocates $20 million annually to the Suburban Community Mobility Fund to pay for such service. Likely a portion of the $10 million set aside annually for the Innovation, Coordination and Enhancement Fund will be used to fund such demand response services.
The juxtaposition of cutting Pace and CTA bus routes that cost say $5/ride in the name of efficiency while expanding suburban demand response service that costs several times as much would be interesting to say the least. Senator Hendon no doubt would have something to say about that once the demographic effects of that shift in service modes were realized.
In sum, I question the wisdom of tacking on more demand response service to an already inadequate funding stream for mainline transit service. That is why I support letting Kane and McHenry Counties out of the RTA so they can build and fund demand response service which no doubt is better suited to their areas for the most part than mainline service.
Considering that the South Cook-Will plan suggests putting DAR in places like Phoenix, Olympia Fields, and West Joliet, what is the racism isssue? More misinformation..

I am trying to find the most efficient way to sort the t smallest integers of an unsorted array of length n.
If t is considerably smaller than n you can find those t elements in one traverse over the array, always saving the t smallest items and getting rid of bigger integers - many data structures are available for this, BST for example.
Then the run time will be min(O(n), O(t log(t)))
Run something like quickselect to find the t-th element and then partition the data to extract the t smallest elements. This can be done in O(n) time (average case).
Then you'll still need to sort the t elements, which can be done with, for example, quicksort or mergesort, giving a running time of O(t log t).
The total running time will be O(n + t log t) - you probably can't do much better than that.

Discover how you can use application whitelisting as a strategy to prevent and fix security gaps, including the best tools available.
An application whitelist is a list of authorized or permitted applications to install or execute on a host according to a well-defined baseline. The goal of application whitelisting technologies is to stop the execution of malware and other unauthorized applications.
Unlike application blacklisting, which blocks unwanted applications from executing, application whitelisting technologies are designed to ensure that only explicitly permitted applications run or execute. In fact, with an application whitelist, you are essentially blacklisting everything else except the applications you enable. s are called whitelisting software.
The whitelisting software can distinguish between allowed and disallowed applications using various application file and folder attributes such as the file name, file path, file size, digital signature or publisher, and cryptographic hash.
The application of this level of control is one of the modern cybersecurity approaches to prevent several critical threats. Whitelisting is usually enforced at Layer 7 of the OSI model. The purpose of this article is to help organizations understand, evaluate, select, and implement the correct application whitelisting solution for their business.
Why is Application Whitelisting Important?
Nowadays, a signature-based approach to security is no longer considered strong enough to protect systems from modern cyber threats. This is why many organizations embrace the principles of the zero-trust security model in their security strategy. However, the recent malware statistics and cybercrime trends show that they are still a significant problem worldwide. With over 350,000 new malware discovered every day, it’s practically impossible for anti-virus applications to keep tabs on these new and emerging threats. This is where application whitelisting plays a key role.
Application whitelisting is a powerful tool deployed to defend your systems from known and unknown thrfileless attacks, zero-day and ransomware attacks, especially in high-risk environments where maximum security is required. If an application is found to have an unknown reputation, its execution will be denied. The default-deny policy of application whitelisting technologies makes it difficult for zero-day and ransomware attacks to execute.
The scope of application whitelisting doesn’t just end with malware protection. They alss and processes on your host systems and allow you to monitor changes made to those application files and could either prevent the files from being changed or alert security teams for further investigation. This helps security admins to fine-tune their security policies and update their whitelists accordingly.
While application whitelisting can be very restrictive. Every time the user needs to run a legitimate application that is not on the whitelist, they need to contact the admin. This can make a system difficult to use and create operational bottlenecks, inefficiency, and frustration. In addition, the whitelisting solution can be a massive failure if end users are constantly unable to perform essential business functions on a day-to-day basis.
Creating a comprehensive whitelist and keeping it updated can be quite a challenging and demanding task to handle for the security admin. This explains why most organizations prefer to adopt blacklisting instead of going through the headaches involved in whitelisting. But these headaches can be significantly reduced if the whitelisting solution has pre-existing policy templates or the capability for security admins to pre-approve known applications that are considered safe. Then, when users attempt to install them, it proceeds without any restrictions.
What Does it Take to Successfully Deploy Application Whitelisting Solution?
Initiation The purpose of this phase is to identify the current and future needs for application whitelisting through requirements analysis and to determine how those needs can best be met, including a policy document that captures all of those decisions. The outcome of the requirements analysis should help in determining the types of threats the application whitelisting should protect against; the types of applications or application components (executables, libraries, registry entries, configuration files, etc.) that need to be monitored; and the types of application whitelisting that should be used to balance security, usability, and maintainability. At the end of this phase, you should identify a suitable application whitelisting technology that your organization requires.
Design Once the needs have been identified and the appropriate application whitelisting technologies have been chosen, the next step is to design a solution that meets those needs. Some of the critical design decisions to consider include solution architecture, whitelist management, cryptography policy, and security. If these design decisions are flawed, then the application whitelisting implementation will be more vulnerable to failure.
Testing After the solution has been designed, the next step is to test a prototype of the design solution to ensure that it meets the design requirements and solution architecture in critical areas such as functionality, management, performance, security, and usability. The testing should be carried out in a test environment before migrating to production systems or servers.
Deployment Once the testing is completed and all issues are resolved, the next step is to deploy the application whitelisting solution. NIST recommends a gradual rollout of the solution. This provides security administrators an opportunity to measure the impact of the solution and resolve issues before enterprise-wide deployment. It also includes time for the IT staff and users to be trained and become accustomed to the operational lifecycle of the implementation.
Management After the solution has been deployed, it is now time to manage it throughout its lifecycle. Executing the solution involves operating the application, updating the whitelist, policies, software, and other solution components. Other key activities include patch management, key management, and adapting policies as requirements change. The entire implementation process is repeated when enhancements or significant changes need to be incorporated into the solution.
With various application whitelisting tools oWhat fits perfectly from a price, feature, and functionality standpoint for one project or company may not work for another. Therefore, when evaluating and selecting an application whitelisting solution, you need to ensure that the various functionalities . In addition, you don’t want to get caught up in the sales and marketing hype that tends to surround most security products.
What are the long-term maintenance demands for running the solution? This is important, considering the significant costs associated with maintenance. The amount of maintenance needed must be balanced with the effectiveness of the solution.

of three distinct phases. At early times,
the GC inspirals towards the galaxy centre due to dynamical friction
from the background stars. When the cluster starts losing stars from
the Lagrangian point L1, an inner structure forms around the SMBH made
of deposited GC stars. Tidal torques become efficient and lead to the
formation of tidal tails and streams from the GC. Eventually, the GC
can be considered disrupted and stars have been deposited around the
SMBH. At the same time, stars are lost from the system through the
Lagrangian point L2. The same qualitative behaviour is seen in models
S1b and S1c, however the inspiral is much faster in the case of the
eccentric orbit, as expected. From the snapshots, the time of GC
disruption is about 50 Myr in model S1a and about 3 Myr in model
S1b.
As the cluster inspirals, it loses mass due to tidal stripping.
This can be seen in Fig.\,\ref{fig:mloss}, where we show the GC mass
enclosed within the cluster's tidal radius as a function of
galactocentric distance during the inspiral.
\centering \includegraphics[width=8cm]{IMBH_MGC.eps}
\caption{GC mass enclosed within its tidal radius as a function of its
radial distance to the SMBH, for three different values of the IMBH
mass: $10^4\ensuremath{\,\textrm{M}_{\odot}}$ (red triangles), $10^3\ensuremath{\,\textrm{M}_{\odot}}$ (cyan squares) and no
IMBH (black filled circles). The GC mass and distance are normalised
to their initial values.}
We compare simulations S1a, S2a and an additional simulation performed
with no IMBH but with the same configuration. We find that the mass
loss experienced by the cluster is modest and completely unaffected by
the presence of an IMBH, regardless of its mass (for the mass values
considered here). This is due to the fact that at early times the orbital
decay is due to dynamical friction acting on the cluster as a whole,
and the presence of a central IMBH does not affect this phase. As we
will show, it is only after the GC is disrupted that the presence and
mass of an IMBH affects the evolution of the cluster remnant.
The mass deposited by the cluster around the SMBH in the centre can be
quite significant, and is well visible in the density profile of the
system. Fig.\,\ref{fig:density} shows the radial density profile for
model S1a at the start of the simulations and at a late time,
comparing the mass density of the GC and galaxy.
\includegraphics[width=8cm]{density_time.eps}
\caption{Density profile of the galaxy (dashed black line), and of the
GC (solid red line), for model S1a at $T=0$ (top panel) and
$T=150$ Myr (bottom panel).}
We find that the GC deposits stars along the inspiral and dominates
the total mass density in the inner few parsecs at late times.
\includegraphics[width=5.5cm]{cumulative_GCS_CIR.eps}
\includegraphics[width=5.5cm]{cumulative_GCS_ECCRAD.eps}
\caption{Mass profile of GC stars as a function of distance from the
SMBH in simulations S1a (left), S1b (middle) and S1c (right), at
different times during the inspiral. The simulations considered
here differ only for the initial eccentricity of the GC orbit.}
\label{fig:masspS1}
\includegraphics[width=5.5cm]{cumulative_GCS_CIR_1e3_1e3.eps}
\caption{Same as Fig.\,\ref{fig:masspS1}, but for simulations S2a
(left), S2b (middle) and S2c (right).}
\label{fig:masspS2}
The radial mass distribution of stars in the GC is shown in
Fig.\,\ref{fig:masspS1} and \ref{fig:masspS2} for models S1 and S2,
where each panel refers to a different orbital eccentricity. As time
progresses and the GC inspirals, more and more mass is deposited
around the SMBH, but mass is also lost from the system. At late times,
the mass deposited in the central $10\ensuremath{\,\textrm{pc}}$ of the galaxy is about
$50\%$ of the initial GC mass, with little or no dependence on the
mass of the IMBH. The initial orbital eccentricity of the cluster has
some effect, with the circular orbits resulting in slightly lower
($\sim 40\%$) fractions of deposited mass at late times in the
\includegraphics[width=8cm]{megan2_m10pc_compS1aS2a.eps}\\
\caption{Mass in GC stars enclosed within $10\ensuremath{\,\textrm{pc}}$ of the central SMBH
as a function of time during cluster inspiral, for the simulations
with an initial circular orbit: S1a (blue dotted line), S2a (green
dashed line) and the simulation without an IMBH (red solid line).}
Similarly, fig.\,\ref{fig:menc} shows the mass in GC stars within
$10\ensuremath{\,\textrm{pc}}$ of the SMBH as a function of time during the inspiral for the
simulations with an initial circular orbit. Initially, the enclosed
mass oscillates significantly due to the motion of the GC and reaches
a peak value as high as $90\%$ of the total GC mass. It then decreases
steadily as the cluster settles in the centre, reaching values of
about $50\%$ after $\sim 40$ Myr. This is due to the fact that, while
the cluster inspirals and deposits stars around the SMBH through the
Lagrangian point L1, stars are lost through the Lagrangian point L2,
due to the effects of tidal forces and the presence of an IMBH (see
also Fig.\,\ref{fig:traj}). At later times, slingshot encounters with
stars become important. These are strong encounters with low angular
momentum stars that typically result in the ejection of the stars to
large distances, while the binary shrinks its separation. The mass in
stars that can be ejected with slingshot encounters is of the order of
the total mass of the binary, and is therefore higher in the case of
the most massive IMBH. This likely explains the observed small
dependence of the final deposited mass on IMBH mass.
\includegraphics[width=8.5cm]{diskyornot.eps}
\caption{GC orbits after $140$ Myr in models S1a (left panels) and S2a
(right panels). The empty white circle represents the central SMBH, the
filled black circle represents the IMBH whereas the smaller red dots
indicate the GC particles.}
Figure \ref{fig:tilt} shows snapshots of the GC in models S1a and S2a
(in all three orbital projections) at the late time of $140$ Myr. The
models differ only for the mass of the IMBH. Both models appear
flattened as a
result of the inspiral, with a similar scale height. Model S2 appears
more centrally concentrated, likely a consequence of the slingshot
ejections phase. Since the

Our daughter has always been friendly and outgoing , but she has also been a very high energy and demanding child. The Howards have been able to highlight her best qualities and draw out the values we hold as a family. Her energy and drive have been channeled into this healthy sport. Sending our daughter to the Howards ATA school haTaekwondo has become an extension of our expectations for our daughter. Our daughter loves the Howard family, the sport, and the competition of taekwondo. She understands what it takes to succeed thanks to this amazing family/school. I often say, "I played every sport when I was younger but taekwondo. I wish I would have found the sport sooner because it would have had a major impact on my life... I know it has positively impacted our daughter!" Thank you Howard family! We enjoy your school, incredible talent, and education! We highly encourage you to choose O'Fallon ATA - you'll be happy you did!!

So why do you get frizzy hair? When hair is dry and porous, it sucks the moisture from the air and causes the hair strand to swell.
Our hairs natural oils help to protect our hair and are important. Instead of washing every day, use a dry shampoo to stretch your washing times to an extra day or even two.
Don't rough up your hair
If you can't live without your hair dryer/sraightener/curler, then make sure you use quality hair tools, or it will do more damage to your hair. Choose a hair dryer/straightener/curler that allows you to change the temperature. Always go for a lower temperature to limit the damage to your hair. And always use a heat protectant spray.

What is Closing the Gap?
Closing the Gap ‘building blocks’
The National Partnership Agreements (NPAs) are agreements between the Commonwealth of Australia and the states and territories. They ensure that all levels of government are committed to the same framework of outcomes, measure of progress, and policy directions. NPAs build on current initiatives, address shortfalls, and may provide additional funding.
The six agreements included in the Closing the Gap policy are detailed below. These agreements are applicable from 2009.
Indigenous early childhood development [1]
Through this agreement, the parties are committed to the following objectives:
improving developmental outcomes for Indigenous children and achieving key targets
achieving sustained improvement in pregnancy and birth outcomes for Indigenous women and infants
improving Indigenous families' use of the early childhood development services they need to optimise the development of their children
contributing to COAG's social inclusion, early childhood development, education, health, housing, and safety agendas, by identifying models and reforms that will improve outcomes for Indigenous children.
This agreement seeks to contribute to the following overarching outcomes:
Indigenous children have the same health outcomes as non-Indigenous children
Indigenous children acquire the basic skills for life and learning
Indigenous families have ready access to suitable and culturally adequate early childhood and family support.
Three key elements are at the core of the desired outputs:
integration of early childhood services through children and family centres
increased access to antenatal care, and pre-pregnancy and teenage sexual and reproductive health
increased access to and use of maternal and child health services by Indigenous families.
To achieve the objectives of this agreement, each party has specific responsibilities:
the Commonwealth will be responsible for providing financial contributions to the states and the Northern Territory (participating in consultation when appropriate), and participating in the planning of bilaterally agreed implementation plans, in consultation with Indigenous communities and other stakeholders.
The states and territories will be responsible for providing financial contributions and planning and implementing bilaterally agreed implementation plans, in consultation with Indigenous communities and other stakeholders.
The states, the territories and the Commonwealth will:
share the responsibilities for ensuring the effective implementation of this agreement
evaluate the outcomes of the agreement, at both national and local levels
review annually the implementation process, and re-align it with COAG reform when appropriate
provide sufficient data to allow national comparisons for evaluations.
The performance indicators are:
increased proportion of Indigenous children attending the Children and Family Centres who have had all age‐appropriate health checks and vaccinations
increased proportion of Indigenous three and four year olds participating in quality early childhood education and development and child care services
increased proportion of Indigenous children attending the Children and Family Centres who go on to attend school regularly
increased proportion of Indigenous children and families accessing a range of services offered at or through Children and Family Centres, including childcare, early learning, child and maternal health, and parent and family support services
increased proportion of pregnant Indigenous women with an antenatal contact in the first trimester of pregnancy
increased proportion of Indigenous teenagers accessing sexual and reproductive health programs and services
reduced proportion of Indigenous babies born with low birth weight each
reduced mortality rate of Indigenous infants
reduced proportion of Indigenous women who use substances (tobacco, alcohol, illicit drugs) during pregnancy
reduced proportion of hospital admissions of Indigenous children aged 0‐4 years.
Remote service delivery [2]
A total of $291.2 million over six years has been allocated to support improvements across 26 remote locations across the Northern Territory, Western Australia, Queensland, New South Wales and South Australia. Coordination and delivery of services in these remote locations will be improved at all levels of government. There will be a focus on reforms to service delivery in early childhood, schooling, housing and health. Importantly, engagement with local communities will include attention to governance and leadership within Indigenous organisations. Through this agreement, COAG seeks to contribute to the following objectives:
improve the access of Indigenous families to a full range of suitable and culturally adequate services
raise the standard and range of services accessible to Indigenous families to the level provided to the other Australian families
improve the level of governance and leadership within Indigenous communities and organisations
provide better and simpler access to government services in remote Indigenous communities
increase social and economic participation to promote personal engagement, responsibility and, more broadly, positive social norms.
In addressing these objectives the Commonwealth will be responsible for:
working with the states and the Northern Territory to establish a new integrated service planning and delivery mechanism
providing financial contribution to the states and the Northern Territory, as stated in the implementation plans
dedication of staff to the new integrated service delivery mechanisms
establishing mechanisms for problem-solving with concordance of the states and the Northern Territory and ensure the development and implementation of service delivery
baseline mapping, building and maintaining the evidence base, monitoring, and evaluation in identified locations
providing advice to governments on local and systemic issues associated with cultural adequacy and cross-cultural training materials
introducing a national framework for the correct use of Indigenous interpreters and translators (including related protocols).
The states and the Northern Territory will be responsible for:
working with the Commonwealth to establish a new integrated service planning and delivery mechanism
providing financial contributions as stated in the agreement
dedicating staff to operate new integrated service delivery mechanisms
delivering all the land tenure components
assisting in the creation of coordination mechanisms.
The Commonwealth and the states and the Northern Territory will share the responsibility for:
completing reporting against performance indicators and timelines, as well as fund allocation
creating an interface for interactions between communities and all government agencies, including one or more senior business manager to coordinate the implementation of the agreement
establishing whole-of-government, regionally-based operation centres to ensure the timelines and accountability of implementation plans
working with selected communities to feed into local implementation plan processes
establishing programs to develop community leadership skills
providing translation services and cultural awareness training in the identified locations
providing technical support and funding to establish and maintain appropriate structures and capacity for corporate governance, when appropriate
participation in consultation, when appropriate
planning and implementing bilateral plans
identifying and sharing good practice across all parties
providing sufficient data to enable effective planning and a thorough evaluation of the outcomes of this agreement, at both national and local level.
Performance indicators will vary between jurisdictions and will be detailed inspecific implementation plans.
Indigenous economic participation [3]
COAG has committed $228.8 million over five years to improve opportunities for Indigenous people to engage in private and public sector jobs. This agreement comprises four elements to significantly contribute to halving the employment gap between Indigenous and other Australians:
creating real, sustainable employment areas of government service delivery that have previously relied on subsidisation through Community development employment projects (CDEP)
strengthening current government procurement policies to maximise Indigenous employment
incorporating Indigenous workforce strategies into all new major COAG reforms contributing to the Closing the Gap targets
reviewing all public sector Indigenous employment and career development strategies to increase employment to reflect population proportions by 2015.
In terms of roles and responsibilities, both the Commonwealth and the states and territories will be responsible for the creation of service delivery jobs by 1 July 2009. They will be jointly responsible for:
the development of sustainable strategies with private sector, local government and Indigenous communities to improve Indigenous employment outcomes
creating properly paid jobs for service delivery that previously relied on CDEP scheme
creating specific, transition strategies for communities especially affected by the CDEP reforms
informing current partner employers on employment reforms
incorporating Indigenous workforce principles in the government services
developing Indigenous workforce strategies.
To achieve the performance benchmark of halving the employment gap, this National Partnership Agreement is expected to assist up to 13,000 Indigenous people into employment over a five-year period. Specific performance indicators and administrative data are used for each of the four elements. The individual states and territories will contribute in varied proportions.
Remote Indigenous housing [4]
COAG has committed $1.94 billion over ten years for housing reform and infrastructure arrangements in remote Indigenous communities. This is expected to:
address severe overcrowding by increasing the availability of new houses
improve the condition of current houses
ensure rental houses in remote Indigenous communities are well maintained and managed.
These three objectives should contribute to the improvement of amenity and reduction of overcrowding, particularly in remote and discrete communities.
To achieve these objectives, the agreement stipulates:
supply of safe and adequate housing
robust and standardised tenancy management of all remote Indigenous housing to be consistent with public housing standards
a program of ongoing maintenance and repairs to increase life cycles of Indigenous remote public housing from 7 years to 30 years
construction and ongoing maintenance of new houses in remote Indigenous communities
increased employment opportunities for local residents in remote Indigenous communities
accommodation, such as hostels and subsidised rental housing, to allow Indigenous people from remote areas to move to regional centres to access education, training and support services
progressive land tenure on remote community-titled land to best secure government and commercial investment, economic development and home ownership in economically sustainable communities
upgraded housing and related infrastructure in town camps where appropriate
improved data collection for three-yearly community housing and infrastructure need surveys.
The Commonwealth is responsible for:
funding of additional housing and related infrastructure in remote Australia to ensure unmet needs are met within the ten years on the agreement
funding for the provision of some municipal and essential services for community audits for specific need assessments of required housing and related infrastructure
agreeing on the modalities of the municipal and essential services for community audits for specific need assessments of required housing and related infrastructure.
The states and the Northern Territory are responsible for:
provision of housing via their housing authorities as the major deliverers of housing for Indigenous people in remote areas
ensuring the consistency of housing and related deliveries with the public housing standards of tenancy management
developing and implementing land tenure arrangements to facilitate effective asset management, essential services and economic development opportunities.
Commonwealth, states and the Northern Territory are sharing the responsibility for:
reporting back to COAG by December 2009 on a proposal for clearer roles, responsibilities and funding with respect to the various municipal services in remote areas, and a timeframe for future implementation to be in place for 1 July 2012
refining the performance indicators and providing data to better reach the desired outcomes of the agreement
maintaining a national minimum data set to allow jurisdictional comparisons
Performance benchmarks and indicators include reduction of:
the average occupancy per remote dwellings, by 2018
the incidence of homelessness by 50% in 2018
overcrowded dwellings by 4,200 in 2018
4,200 new housing construction completed by 2018
4,876 repairs and replacements completed by 2014
tenancy management, rent collection and tenancy support services in place for all existing and repaired and replaced housing by 2015
comprehensive rolling program of repairs and maintenance by 2010
all communities connected to operating water, sewerage, power and rubbish disposal by 2018
a number of hostel-style and family-style accommodation at affordable prices in regional centres and 100% available for Indigenous people from remote communities
20% of new housing construction employment roles occupied by local Indigenous people.
Indigenous health outcomes [5]
COAG has committed $1.57 billion over four years to contribute to 'closing the gap' in health outcomes. This NPA expired on 30 June 2013. It aimed to achieve the following five key objectives:
preventive health: reduction of the factors that contribute to chronic disease, including tobacco, and an integrated alcohol, drugs and mental health services
primary health care: access expansion and coordination of comprehensive culturally appropriate health care, services and allied services
hospital and related care: delivery of better outcomes through quality improvement, cultural appropriateness of hospitals and related care
patient experience; ensuring the cultural appropriateness of the health care workforce by engagement in genuine partnerships with Indigenous communities in order to allow the most vulnerable people to re-engage with hospital and related services
sustainability: augmentation of Indigenous people in the health care workforce, reform and improvement of health care supply, creation of sustainable programs and funding schemes and performance benchmarks and indicators to best respond to the changing need of Indigenous people's service need.
The objectives of the agreement are expected to be achieved by tackling tobacco use, ensuring healthy transition to adulthood, making Indigenous health everyone's business, making a primary health care service more effective, and fixing the gaps in continuity of care and improving the patient journey. The implementation of these objectives is predominantly the responsibility of the states and territories apart from some discrete intervention that will be under the umbrella of COAG. Performance indicators are various and specific to each objective, these are for:
the incidence and prevalence of a wide range of health issues (including preventable diseases and injury, babies born with low birth weight, and teenage birth rate)
health service attendance (including immunisation rates, cancer screenings, number of women attending antenatal visits in the first trimester of pregnancy)
additional indicators (tobacco smoking during pregnancy, social and emotional wellbeing, and health promotion)
access to general practitioners (GPs), dental and other primary health care professionals
prevalence of diabetes and chronic disease management
time between GP/specialist visits
hospital and related care:
selected adverse events in acute and sub-acute care settings
unplanned readmissions within 28 days of surgical admissions
survival rates of people with cancer
rates of services provided by private/public hospitals
rate of discharge from hospital against medical advice
level of patient satisfaction
barriers to accessing care
Indigenous people in the healthcare workforce
expenditure on health services
Indigenous people in tertiary education for health-related disciplines
Remote Indigenous public internet access [6]
COAG has committed $6.967 million over four years to expand and maintain public access to the internet. This NPA seeks to:
increase social inclusion and wellbeing of remote Indigenous communities
improve access to basic information and communication services required for Indigenous participation in contemporary Australian economic, political and social life
reduce barriers to basic information and communication services
increase the understanding of the benefits of the effective use of the internet and associated hardware and software in remote Indigenous communities.
The desired outcome for internet access is to be a lever to increase educational, health, economic and social capital, doing so through both enhanced computer literacy and greater public information use. It also seeks to facilitate communication with government agencies, businesses, communities and families. Installation of internet facilities will be coupled with the appropriate filtering facilities for illegal and offensive materials. Importantly, maintenance of the internet facilities will be provided, as well as training sessions tailored to the individual community needs.
In delivering public internet access, priority will be given to remote communities of 100 people or more that have no public internet access.
To achieve these objectives each party has specific roles. The Commonwealth will:
provide financial contribution to the states and the Northern Territory
hold intergovernmental consultations regarding the implementation
assess the eligibility and priority of the remote communities.
The states and the Northern Territory will:
identify and nominate eligible communities
administer the funding and organise service delivery and implementation
deliver the full value of the Commonwealth financial contribution
monitor and assess the performance in delivering the facilities and services.
The Commonwealth, states and the Northern Territory will:
share the responsibility of consultation with Indigenous communities and other stakeholders
plan and agree on bilateral implementation plans
agree on nomination and priority for service delivery to remote Indigenous communities
conduct evaluations and reviews of the service delivery of the agreement.
The performance indicators are threefold:
reduction in the number of remote Indigenous communities that have limited or no public internet access
increased number of people in remote Indigenous communities that have received training in information technology and internet use
increase in the transactions and communication between remote Indigenous communities and government agencies, businesses, communities and families.
The Australian Government has committed $807.4 million over the three years areas to fund a variety of programs, including:
remote policing and substance use
community law and justice
improving child and family health
welfare reform and employment
This NPA was agreed between the Commonwealth and the Northern Territory Government in July 2009. It will continue the Northern Territory Emergency Response (NTER), which originated with the Australian Government in June 2007, but aims to ensure the benefits are sustainable and driven by community aspirations. The agreement maintains and strengthens core NTER measures while placing a greater emphasis on community engagement and partnerships, and building capability and leadership within Indigenous communities.
ensure the protection of women and children
reduce violence and improve family and community safety, including restrictions of alcohol and pornography, enhancing compliance and community education
improve the quality of education, increase school participation and employment outcomes
improve health and wellbeing, particularly that of children
promote positive behaviours among Indigenous youth
improved safety, health and wellbeing of Indigenous children
improved school engagement and performance
sustainable communities to support children and youth including through education and employment pathways.
The objectives and outcomes of this agreement will be achieved by:
income management and welfare reform:
maintenance and extension of income management consistent with the Racial Discrimination Act, after consultation, to eligible recipients in communities
assessing, licensing and monitoring community stores and ensuring food security in communities without a store
additional language, literacy and numeracy training to enhance sustainable employment by improving skills

continuation of the Mobile Child Protection Team
continuation of the Remote Aboriginal Family and Community Worker program in at least 13 communities
youth projects, services, organisations and infrastructure to promote positive behaviours among young people
services to improve families’ skills and educate young people about pregnancy, birth and parenting, including playgroups
improving child and family health:continuation of the primary health care services initiatives
providing ear and hearing services and specialist care
continuing follow up dental care for children
strengthening the Mobile Outreach Service to address child abuse related trauma
the construction of at least 22 extra houses for teachers in remote communities
continuation of the school nutrition program supporting improved school attendance
accelerating literacy and numeracy programs and quality teaching initiatives
continuation of government business managers
building capacity of interpreter services to support engagement between Indigenous communities and government and non-government agencies
Commonwealth Ombudsman outreach visits to remote Indigenous communities
implementation of the NPA on remote service delivery oversighted by Commonwealth and Northern Territory Coordinators General for Remote Service Delivery
NPA on remote service delivery involving governments working together to implement a new remote service delivery model initially in 26 priority locations
leadership development, engagement and community development workshops to build local capacity and support people on the ground
employment and training of 30 Indigenous Engagement Officers
To achieve the objectives of this agreement, each party has specific responsibilities. The Commonwealth will be responsible for:
providing funding to the Northern Territory Government for certain projects
delivering and funding certain services
development and conduct of the monitoring plan and evaluation strategy
providing funding to the Northern Territory Government for the implementation of quality teaching and accelerated literacy
investing $28.4 million over three years for the delivery of a comprehensive youth strategy.

Ubiquitin and Ubiquitin-Like Proteins
PhosphoSitePlus® Database
Overview of Ubiquitin and Ubiquitin-Like Proteins
Ubiquitin can be linked to a substrate as a single unit, monoubiquitination, or as a branched chain, polyubquitination. Substrate proteins are linked to ubiquitin using seven distinct ubiquitin l). Formation of a polyubiquitin chain occurs when a lysine residue of ubiquitin is linked to the carboxy-terminal glycine of another ubiquitin. Polyubiquitinated proteins have distinct fates depending upon the nature of the ubiquitin linkage through which they are conjugated; K48-linked polyubiquitin chains mainly target proteins for proteasomal degradation while K63-linked polyubiquitin typically r although this linkage sometimes results in proteasomal degradation as well.
Deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) reverse the process of ubiquitination by removing ubiquitin from its substrate protein. DUB activity maintains ubiquitin recycling and ensures the cellular pool of ubiquitin molecules remains steadyM, each with a specific tissue and substrate specificity. The 26S proteasome is a highly abundantP). The CP forms a cylindrical catalytic chamber. The RP includes a base and a lid. The base functions to unfold the substrate and open the gate, thus allowing entry of the unfolded substrate into the catalytic chamber. The lid is predominantly involved in specific recognition of the ubiquitin signal. In addition to the 19S cap, other proteins and complexes bind to the end of the 20S cylinder and activate it by facilitating opening of the gate. Furthermore, proteasome associated DUBs and E3s can remodel substrate-anchored polyubiquitin chains, which may modulate their susceptibility to degradation.

You can review any item that still has a page on Eden, though it won't be as helpful to the masses. You can not do a video review on a discontinued item, and you can not request it for review, but if you have the item and you want to do a written review go ahead!
I just bought a product that arrived a few days ago and I just found out it is now discontinued. I did a review but it wouldn't let me upload an image.....Is there a way to go about this?I feel not being able to show product pics will hinder my review helpfulness...

True story: While sitting in the hot tub Wednesday night, we got an alert that Scruff’s game show Hosting was about to start. We’d never played the HQ-style trivia game, so we thought, why not? We’ve got nothing to do but wait for our appendages to shrivel in the chlorinated water. The game itself was fun, but that night’s host […]
The soundtrack for your weekend is here! The new album, Love Is Love, from openly gay artist Trey Peterson brings us so much joy! It’s his first solo album and filled with powerful songs, especially the title track. Check out the music video for the LGBTQ anthem, Love Is Love, below. Then get to clicking to buy the entire album. Openly gay artist Trey […]
Lemonade Ain’t Just for Beyoncé
The visual album may just be our new favorite thing. Beyoncé may have popularized the format with the mass consumption and media buzz, but Indiana Queen’s new album does the genre good. Founder and sole member, Kevin Thornton, already faces an uphill battle as a gay performer in the country music world but his third album, Summon Without Sorrow, allows […]
Sia To Believe It
One singer’s trash is sometimes the songwriter’s treasure. That’s the story behind much of Sia’s new album, This Is Acting, out today. Some of pop music’s biggest hits have been written by the Australian artist, including Rihanna’s “Diamonds,” Kelly Clarkson’s “Invincible,” David Guetta’s “Titanium,” Rita Ora’s “Radioactive” and Beyoncé’s “Pretty Hurts.” But sometimes superstars don’t record every song she gives […]
Win A Copy of “25” Album from Adele
We love guys with Woodies. And the London-based trio of bassist Mikey Goldsworthy, keyboard player Emre Turkmen, and vocalist Olly Alexander have a really big one, as in the Artist to Watch Woodie award from mtvU. Their debut album, Communion, has been hotly anticipated ever since they received the recognition. And the wait was worth it. It’s an electronic pop wonder. Just check […]
Where There’s A Willam…
Clearly, this is the Golden Age of Drag. From queens on America’s Got Talent to the rise of superstar-in-the-making, Pearl, men in heels are everywhere. But today, it’s all about the latest in the world of super-talented, ultra-sexy, uproariously hilarious Willam. Known for outrageous parodies like “Chow Down (at Chick-fil-A),” Willam’s back with a new album called Shartistry in Motion […]
Get High With Adam Lambert
We love trying before we buy. Which is evident by the walk-in freezer we have dedicated entirely to Costco purchases. Damn them and their free samples! Well, today, you can pick up a frilly toothpick with Adam Lambert on the other end. His new album, The Original High, doesn’t debut until Tuesday, but you can start listening to the entire […]
Murphy’s La La La
You know how some people pick wines based on the label? Or those who bet on horses because of their names? Well, we can be that way sometimes with albums. We mean, come on, how could we not give a listen to an album titled Hairless Toys? What’s great, though, is that this first album in eight years from Roisin […]

Barbican, Rollins and Mileage
Posted: Sun 17 January, 2016 | Author: Lyle | Filed under: Day Trips, Domestic, Driving, Food, Getting Organised, Gigs, London, M1, M25, Travel | Leave a comment »
All told though, it went really smoothly. I’d booked pretty much everything in advance, including the train tickets and reserving a table at the restaurant of choice, so it was as organised as humanly possible.
The three-course meal was great – particularly the venison haunch, and their sticky toffee pudding was amazing. (as was the accompanying mince-pie ice cream, which has to be tasted to be believed) Knowing how easy it is for me to drive to Barbican in general, I will be returning. Several times.
The gig itself was great – Rollins spoke for three full hours, with no breaks. The show was about 50% the same as the one I saw last week in Bath, but I can live with that – it’s better than being entirely the same!
Another London Run
Posted: Mon 19 October, 2015London, M1, M25, Parking, Reviews(ish), Travel | Leave a comment »
Yesterday was yet another day spent in London. Thankfully, it was also a different area (again) which helps to keep things fresh.
This time, it was Hammersmith, primarily to see an American comedian called Gabriel Iglesias at the Hammersmith Eventim Apollo with a friend (who was the one who knew of Iglesias first) who was doing a one-off, rare (and sold out) London gig
It’s a long time since I’ve been to the Apollo – December 2008, from the look of it – and Hammersmith has changed a bit since last time. The places I’d used to use for parking had – unsurprisingly – changed, and disappeared, so it was time for a bit of a new explore.
Had a decent meal, a couple of drinks, and then to the Apollo for what turned out to be a brilliant show – thoroughly enjoyed. (Although lots of people doing American-ised whoops at lots of things, which isn’t really my thing at all) Paid a small fortune for parking – which is taking the piss, as that parking wasn’t being used for anything else – and a pretty simple escape. Certainly nothing like as bad as getting out of Wembley…
And then a straight motorway blat home, dropping off friends at houses along the way (we’d met another couple of people at the gig) so I got home at about 1am, and didn’t get to sleep ’til gone 2.
It’s fair to say I am not fully awake today…

In a conversation the other day about driving – and motorway driving in particular – I was told I was too callous and calculating. I’m not sure this is true, but I’m interested…
So. When I’m driving motorways, and even more so at night, I usually let someone else go in front who’s driving faster than I am, and let them be the testing point for whether there are any active speed cameras or unmarked police cars around.
Surely I’m not the only driver that does this?

On Sunday, I trolled off down to Brighton for the day. I haven’t been there in years – the last time was a flying visit five years ago for an interview, and before that it had been a number of years too – but realised it’s just about the same distance as Felixstowe is (they’re both a two-hour drive time) to get to, so what the hell.
Coastal – Brighton
That’s the plan, anyway. I’ll update later/tomorrow with how it goes, and any relevant photos etc.
Posted: Fri 29 August, 2014 | Author: Lyle | Filed under: Commuting, Cynicism, Driving, Literacy, M1, M25, weeks one of the motorway gantries on my route (the ones with speed cameras on) has been out of action, so there’s been a small – but noticeable if you pay attention – yellow sign saying
Camera now in use

Yesterday I did – yet another – circumnavigation of the M25 in one day. It’s quite a childish thing, allbeit not something I do on a whim, but sometimes it amuses me. The main difference this time was that I did it anti-clockwise, which for some reason I do less often.
Yesterday was a drive from home to parents in Oxford, collect them and drive them to Dover (they’re off on a holiday) and then back round to the M1 to go home. It also involved a trip into the office – that’s a post for another time – so all told I covered about 350 miles in the day.

100% Pumpkin (not the spiced pumpkin for pies) is very good for your dogs for many reasons, but we are going to concentrate on three. While most people consider pumpkins as vegetable, they are really a fruit born from vine plants of the genus Cucurbita, part of the gourd family.
Pumpkins are rich in carotenoids, beta-carotene, alpha-carotene, fiber, zinc, iron, vitamin A and potassium. In fact, you can tell the pumpkin is rich in the antioxidant beta-carotene, just by looking at its bright orange color. While you can buy a fresh pumpkin and cook it, canned pumpkin is really simple to feed to your dog. Canned pumpkin is just as packed with nutrients as fresh pumpkin.
If you buy fresh pumpkin, you will want to puree so it is easy to mix in your dog’s food, like the canned pumpkin. You can even roast the pumpkin seeds and grind them up, but do not add salt. The leaves and stems should not be given to dogs because of the sharp hairs that will irritate your dog.
1. Give it to your dog as a treat: or use it as an ingredient when you make your dog treats. When first introducing as a new food, only feed a small quantity at first to see if it causes your dog stomach upset, such as gas.
We keep canned pumpkin and fresh frozen pumpkin at all times. It is one of the basic must haves in my home for the following reasons:
2. Dog diarrhea and constipation: Pumpkin has high fiber and water content, which are good for correcting and preventing constipation or even diarrhea in dogs, plus it can help bulk up your dog’s stool. Start with feeding your dog 1 or 2 tablespoons of pureed pumpkin a day, depending on your dog’s size. NOTE: Pumpkin may not help your dog with diarrhea or constipation if there is an underlying medical condition.
3. Helping your dog lose weight: Some dogs need to lose weight, but their owners don’t want them to feel hungry. Pumpkin is a great low-fat treat that fills a dog up due to its being high in fiber. The proper amount of pumpkin to feed depends on the size of your dog and dietary needs.
As with anything related to your dogs health be sure and consult your veterinarian for how much or how often to use for diarrhea, constipation or weight loss.

I think of two reasons because of which it has gotten this widespread adoption, (1) we didn’t have anything better than backpropagation, & (2) it worked. Backpropagation is based on the chain rule of differentiation.
The problem lies in the implementation of the Backpropagation algorithm itself. To calculate gradients of the current layer we need gradients of the next layer, so the current layer is locked and we can’t calculate gradients until and unless we have gradients for the next layer. If we have 1000s of layers in our network, our 1st layer has to wait till eternity to get its weights updated. First few layers in the neural networks are miserable ones and don’t get updated properly. Sometimes, in case of the Sigmoid activation function, when we propagate back, gradient vanishes or explodes.
When we make decisions, we make decisions based on our current observation and our previous learning. Current neural networks or deep learning algorithms are not designed the way we make decisions. Our experience defines our decisions. For example, when we walk we use vision, audio, and sensory inputs to take decisions. We use learning from one task to learn other tasks.
It is slow, all previous layers are locked until gradients for the current layer is calculated
It suffers from vanishing or exploding gradients problem
It suffers from overfitting & underfitting problem
It considers predicted value & actual value only to calculate error and to calculate gradients, related to the objective function, partially related to the Backpropagation algorithm
It doesn’t consider the spatial, associative and dis-associative relationship between classes while calculating errors, related to the objective function, partially related to the Backpropagation algorithm
DeepMind’s synthetic gradients show a workaround, but it is not a solution. In my opinion, we have to think from scratch and design a new learning algorithm which can learn efficiently and can help our network learn in real time.

SEX, DRUGS BUT NO ROCK 'N ROLL
By Leona Salazar July 8, 2010 14 CommentIH, will pay Excuse me, in this grant prostitutes are referred to as “female sex workers” and their handlers/pimps as “gatekeepers.” The grant’s intennd has three components: “(1) gfemale sex workers trainingsbehavioral skillsidual skills.”
The NIH is funding $400,000 to study drinking and sex habits of homosexuals in Argentina. The two-year study will end this August and its Among other things, the study seeks to identify which factors contribute to alcohol consumption and sexual behavior in the bars.
The people at the NIH, Gob bless their souls, are spending $117,876 to study “party drug” use in Brazil. Their focus is on the use of ecstasy, LSD and other “party drugs.” According to the NIH summary of the grant, “the topic is interesting and the data will be useful to understand the emerging problem of club drugs and raves in Brazil.” The summary also said “the proposal states that they will distribute ‘harm reduction’ literature at club events and that is positive. However, plans are not fully laid out for developing an intervention that is culturally appropriate and effective for this population.”
Again, with the help of our government ATM machine, the NIH h is examining the “social milieu” . The study focuses on in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The project began in July 2008 and continues until March 2012.
The NIH has spent over $2 million on a study that seeks to increase condom use among intravenous drug users in, you guessed it, Kazakhstan! Yep, I’ll bet each and every one of you can point to Kazakhstan on the map. Just look for the U.S. dollars signs! Eligible participants in the s
The National Science Foundation – not part of the NIH – received a grant of $600,000 to study, over five years, ground squirrels in Africa! According to Jane Waterman, the researcher who will be studying Fred’s relatives in Africa, the furry animals are fascinating because male African squirrels are so friendly to each other. The only time they spend with females is for sex and they don’t fight over females as American squirrels do. “They hang out in large male bands and they like each other.” She believes that studying the evolution of squirrel breeding gives
I guess my Fred could learn a little from his African brethren.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t get how any of these studies or projects has any effect on one American and I don’t get why the government is so interested in the sex lives of just about every person (and squirrel) on the planet. And, if you do, God bless you.

Hutcheson's Dublin: Who was Francis Hutcheson?
Francis Hutcheson has been called "the Father of the Scottish Enlightenment". He influenced Adam Smith (a pupil of his) and David Hume. He is credited with being the first to denounce slavery from a human rights perspective. His thought has been linked to the American Founding Fathers and to the United Irishmen. But who was he?

In the eyes of a child… there is joy… there is laughter. And to see that joy and laughter is a very precious moment for any proud parent. That is why, all around the globe, there are products made and are still being made to give that joy and laughter to children. From traditional children swing sets
to modern day technologies for children, the reactions elicited by a child when they receive a gift is one in the same... Pure Excitement.
For small girls and boys, they squeal with delight when they receive gifts that are of dolls and bears. Little girls smile with excitement as they lovingly stroke their doll’s hair and baptize these dolls with their chosen names. Cuddly bears are also popular gift items for children. Bears that are sold in the market today, all come in different sizes and colors. Just like the others, dolls have their own evolution. Back in the very, very early days when plastic were yet to be discovered, dolls were basically made from clay, fur, and wood. Archaeological findings revealed the presence of dolls even in the early Egyptian, Greek, and Roman times. In the 16th and 17th century, Europe became the major location for doll production. From wooden dolls during the 16th and 17th century, to wax dolls in the 17th and 18th century. But at the start of the 19th century, porcelain dolls were born. During this time, French Bebe dolls were very popular. It was the Germans who were the geniuses behind these dolls and were more sought-after compared to their French rivals. They could produce French Bebe dolls that were of a higher-quality but at a more affordable price. On the other hand, mothers around the globe have been making their very own dolls for a very long time. These are called rag dolls, made from any fabric available. These dolls may not be as expensive or sophisticated as the other dolls manufactured, but they are most-loved by children. When World War II ended, doll-making has entered another phase of evolution. In the 1940’s, plastic was now the main substance in producing dolls. Aside from plastics, other materials were from rubber, foam rubber, and vinyl. The production of dolls using vinyl was another turning point for doll-making. Vinyl enables doll makers to put hair roots instead of the usual hair painting or the use of wigs. There are some websites that offer porcelain dolls in different designs, and in some, porcelain dolls of different cultures. The prices for some of these dolls do not exceed $60. But as for the very popular French Bebe dolls, prices are a little steep which is quite understandable considering that these dolls are very antique. Some French Bebe dolls may range from a thousand dollars to higher than that. As for stuffed animals such as bears, the name Teddy Bear cam Everything started with a hunting incident and an American Black Bear. Former President Roosevelt was asked to shoot the caught and already clubbed, tied-to-a- tree bear. But he refused to do so. Instead, he gave instructions to put the bear out of its misery.
A man named Morris Michtom was the one who made a small stuffed bear cub and put it on display on his window shop, with a tag “Teddy’s bear”. This had turned out to be a huge success. But during this time, a German toy firm named Steiff also produced their own stuffed bears using the sketches of Richard Steiff. Today, mass production of teddy bears is being done in China and Indonesia. But production of these stuffed animals should pass rigid quality control to ensure the safety of the children clients. Stuffed animals such as teddy bears can be made using mohair and alpaca. Mohair yarns are durable and exhibits high quality luster. These are derived from the hair of the Angora goat. As for alpaca, these are obtained from the hair of alpacas that look like llamas. Another source of joy and laughter for children are stuffed animals called Beanie Babies. These stuffed animals have fillings made from plastic pellets. Beanie Babies made their debut on January 8, 1993 under Ty Inc.
The market for products aimed at children forms an understandably massive presence on the world stage. As populations continue to increase in size, and move demand ever in favour of supplying the perceived needs of youngsters, the industries that drive supplies grow with them and diversify to meet the needs of different consumer groups. Ultimately, at the centre of the whole process is the child, whose needs and wants are typically at the heart of their parents. These needs could feasibly include a whole host of recreational, educational, necessity and health demands. In terms of recreational needs, it is widely accepted that the ability to play is profitable to a chilFor many years, entire industries have been devoted to making it possible for parents to afford play time to their children. The price of such goods varies depending on who made them and how desirable they are to either the children or to the parents buying them. For example, a child may have a favourite toy, or a parent may have a favourite dress that the child wears. While the level of influence affected by fashions and trends is debatable, it is basically taken as fact by many that what the child wants; the child will get, within reason and financial means. However, what the child wants, or just a well the parent for them, might easily be dictated by what is channelled into their interests by means of TV, Internet, Radio and other forms of media. Regarding educational material, the focus on educating the child from an early stage has developed and grown in recent years within the public realm of demand and imagination. Although the desire for a child to develop normally or ahead of his / her peers is obviously a natural one, the cost of promoting such gains in the child’s lifestyle may not always have been affordable. Dominant forms of educational material in this portion of the market have included and continue to include age-tailored reading material, and both games and toys which require problem solving, learning facts and mental stimulation. Many companies, like Lakeside Collection have realized the positive effect that toys and games have on children, and sell toys and games that can help a child develop cognitive abilities. In terms of necessity, what we are referring to here is the everyday goods which are made with the child in mind, for their consumption. These can include prepared foods and drinks, supplies such as diapers or medicines, equipment and clothing. The ability to afford necessities is often at the forefront of missions by charitable organisations around the world seeking to relieve the needs of impoverished groups and communities, where the most vulnerable members are children. Where the ability to acquire necessities for child consumers is lacking, usually the priority is placed of supplying essential prepared foods such as baby milk powders, foods for toddlers and other examples of the most basic amenities. Necessities can be tied in with health demands, and by extension, health and safety. Requirementons and the environments. For example, a mosquito net for a child might be of little consequence in New York, but in Botswana inre malaria is concerned. Keeping the child safe at all times is a natural concern for any parent, and to this extent, it would be expected that almost all forms of baby and child products e being released for general consumption by the public. However, expectation does not always meet with reality, and the final responsibility must rest with the parent to decide what constitutes reasonable risk. In deciding how to care for a child, the general consensus for many people would be to ensure that the child receives the appropriate products for its necessity, health, education, and recreation. How to establish a repertoire of such products would depend largely on what the parents could afford and what the specific demands of their child are. However, in essence, all children should be getting a good mix of basic products for each requirement, regardless of how cheap or how expensive they are. The parent may be well advised to select recreational items for their children that are within their financial means, whilst keeping any savings aside to serve a child should they one day request something that is in fashion, and / or expensive. Exceptional treats or rewards for good behaviour, good academic performance or celebrations such as birthdays / festivals would also be a good time to invest something expanding, rather than reinforcing, what is available for the child’s recreation. In other words – introducing the child to a new experience, rather than just getting a toy identical to the last one. Lastly, and on the same note, the parent might use such opportunities to use available children’s products to identify potential talents. Musical instruments, art materials, writing materials and educational products are a must, if the parent is to observe and realise what a child is capable of excelling at from an early age.

How did Rene Descar...
How did Rene Descartes "discover" that the seat of the soul is in the pineal gland?
Why not the center of the heart for example?
it was a guess. Rather inspired. Or maybe it was just fortuitous. How could HE know? He wasn't a biochemist.
Hi. I guess my post got deleted. Anyways, here's from wikipedia. This all stems from Descartes' radical reductionism and mechanistic approach to the philosophy of nature.
He was an ars-soul!
This was pretty much a "default position" on Descartes part.
Descartes philosophy be regarded as "sowing the seeds of science" This is because he was the first philosopher to separate mind from body. The physical from the mental. Modern science largely concentrates on the physical.
Having separated mind from body Descartes was faced with a problem. It was a very basic problem. Now that mind and body are separate entities or different substances (physical and mental) How are they linked? Descartes would have been happy if they remained separate, but as everybody knows they are somehow linked.
At the basic level my mental thoughts are transferred to my body to create action or movement.In exactly the same way my physical activity creates mental thoughts. Descartes knew like everyone else that the physical and mental are linked but the problem was how are they linked? The only unsatisfactory explanation Descartes could come up with is they are linked through the pineal gland.

the energy of the Government is turned to constructive work. The terror has ceased. All power of judgment has been taken away from the extraordinary commission for suppression of the counter-revolution, which now merely accuses suspected counter-revolutionaries, who are tried by the regular, established, legal tribunals. Executions are extremely rare. Good order has been established. The streets are safe. Shooting has ceased. There are few robberies. Prostitution has disappeared from sight. Family life has been unchanged by the revolution, the canard in regard to "nationalization of women" notwithstanding. (Appendix, p. 58.)The theaters, opera, and ballet are performing as in peace. Thousands of new schools have been opened in all parts of Russia and the Soviet Government seems to have done more for the education of the Russian people in a year and a half than czardom did in 50 years. (Appendix, p. 59.)POLITICAL SITUATIONt th the peopl ion. Uss d it has acquired so great a hold on the imagination of the common poung men to die for it.The position of the communist party (formerly Bolsheviki) is also very strong. Blockade and intervention have caused the chief opposition parties, the right social revolutionaries and the menshiviki, to give temporary support to the communists. These opposition parties have both made formal statements against the blockade, intervention, and the support of antisoviet governments by the allied and associated governments. Their leaders, Volsky and Martov, are most vigorous in their demands for the immediate raising of the blockade and peace. (Appendix, p. 60.)ay comes from more radical parties—the left social revolutionaries and the ae d bourgeois gendarmes of the Entente." They attack the communists i l nonrevolutionary governments. They argue that the Entente Governments t an countries to immediate revolution.Within the communist party itself there is a distinct division of opinion in regard to foreign policy, but this disagreement has not developed personal hostility or open breach in the ranks of the party. Trotski, the generals, and many theorists believe the red army should go forward everywhere until more vigorous intervention by the Entente is provoked, which they, too, count upon to bring revolution in France and England. Their attitude is not a little colored by pride in the spirited young army. (Appendix, p. 62.) Lenin, Tchitcherin, and the bulk of the communist party, on the other hand, insist that the essential problem at present is to save the proletariat of Russia, in particular, and the proletariat of Europe, in general, from starvation, and assert that it will benefit the revolution but little to conquer all Europe if the Government of the United States replies by starving all Europe. They advocate, therefore, the conciliation of the United States even at the cost of compromising with many of the principles they hold most dear. And Lenin's prestige in Russia at present is so overwhelming that the Trotski group is forced reluctantly to follow him. (Appendix, p. 63.)Lenin, indeed, as a practical matter, stands well to the right in the existing political life of Russia. He recognizes the undesirability, from the Socialist viewpoint, of the compromises he feels compelled to make; but he is ready to make the compromises. Among the more notable concessions he has already made are: The abandonment of his plan to nationalize the land and the adoption of the policy of dividing it among the peasants, the establishment of savings banks paying 3 per cent interest, the decision to pay all foreign debts, and the decision to give concessions if that shall prove to be necessary to obtain credit abroad. (Appendix, p. 64.)In a word, Lenin feels compelled to retreat from his theoretical position all along the line. He is ready to meet the western Governments half way.PEACE PROPOSALSLenin seized upon the opportunity presented by my trip of investigation to make a definite statement of the position of the Soviet Government. He was opposed by Trotski and the generals, but without much difficulty got the support of the majority of the executive council, and th which was handed to me was finally adopted unanimously.My discussion of this proposal with the leaders of the Soviet Government was so detailed that I feel sure of my ground in saying that it does not represent the minimum terms of the Soviet Government, and that I can point out in detail wherein it may be modified without making it unacceptable to the Soviet Government. For example, the clause under article 5—"and to their own nationals who have been or may be prosecuted for giving help to Soviet Russia"—is certainly not of vital importance. And the clause under article 4, in regard to admission of citizens of the soviet republics of Russia into the allied and associated countries, may certainly be changed in such a way as to reserve all necessary rights to control such immigration to the allied and associated countries, and to confine it to persons who come on legitimate and necessary business, and to exclude definitely all possibility of an influx of propagandists.CONCLUSIONSThe following conclusions are respectfully submitted:1. No government save a socialist government can be set up in Russia to-day except by foreign bayonets, and any governments so set up will fall the moment such support is withdrawn. The Lenin wing of the communist party is to-day as moderate as any socialist government which can control Russia.2. This proposal of the Soviet Government presents —perhaps a unique opportunity.3. If the blockade is lifted and supplies begin to be delivered.* * * * *APPENDIX TO REPORTTRANSPORTLocomotives.—Before the war Russia had 22,000 locomotives. Destruction by war and ordinary wear and tear have reduced the number of locomotives in good order to 5,500. Russia is entirely cut off from supplies of spare parts and materials for repair, facilities for the t is able only with the greatest difficulty to keep in running order the few locomotives at its disposal.Coal.—Soviet Russia is entirely cut off from supplies of coal. Kolchak holds the Perm mining district, although Soviet troops are now on the edge of it. Denikin still holds the larger part of the Donetz coal district which he has evacuated. As a result of this, locomotives, electrical power plants, etc., must be fed with wood, which is enormously expensive and laborious and comparatively ineffectual.Gasoline.—There is a total lack of gasoline, due to the British occupation of Baku. The few automobiles in the cities which are kept running for vital Government business are fed with substitute to miss continually. Almost the entire fleet on the great inland waterway system of Russia was propelled by gasoline. As a result the Volga and the canals, which are so vital a part of Russia's system of transportation, are useless.FOODEveryone is hungry in Moscow and Petrograd, including the people's commissaries themselves. The daily ration of Lenin and the other commissaries is the same as that of a soldier in the army or of a workman at hard labor. In the hotel which is reserved for Government officials the menu is the following: Breakfast—A quarter to half a pound of black bread, which must last all day, and tea without sugar. Dinner—A good soup, a small piece of fish, for which occasionally a diminutive piece of meat is substituted

After just three years, Radical Grace, the South East Asian branch of HOPE for AIDS has become a locally led project. Prasert “Pii Daeng” Dechaboon, a long-time member of the project team, has officially accepted the role of Director while his wife, “Ann” Jutatip Dechaboon has taken over as Project Manager. New Zealander Kenneth Fleck, the project’s founder, will shift his attention to developing other regional branches of HOPE for AIDS.
“I believe the handover…goes a long way towards sustainability and local ownership,” says Marcus Baeder the international coordinator of HOPE for AIDS. This is increasingly crucial as "funding for HIV and AIDS at the international level is decreasing or remaining stagnant".
There are almost half, according to the Bangkok Post, the number is growing by more than 9,000 a year. In this challenging context Daeng and his team are developing a plan to, as he says, "think big and yet be specific and go deep”. They will focus on prevention education – particularly for youths in detention centers and university dorms – and providing holistic care for minorities, ex-prisoners, drug users, young people and Christians affected by HIV.
“[The project] isnr.”
But Kenneth sees the change as vital for the project’s community relationships. “Since leadership has been handed over, doors that I had no key to before have been opened.”

Saturday 30th December 2017, and the last few shows of the year, brings me back to Cardiff Bay and the magnificent Millenium Centre for two more performances of Miss Saigon. With so many good shows throughout the year, it's been amazing for me to have the opportunity to watch most of them in the comfort of a theatre so close to home.
Miss Saigon (10th performance).
With Christmas over for another year it's Boxing Day today (26th December 2017)Miss Saigon. I arrived early here today to take advantage of the weather changes throughout the day, with the morning dry and bright I managed to indulge myself in another of my pastimes, walking around the Bay, taking photos.
Miss Saigon is such an impressive show, full of action, a fabulous score and scenes to die for (literally). One of the most impressive sights is the sheer size of the set, lighting and sound rigs. I think it's the first time I've ever seen the stage used to its full potential for a touring production. The sound system is also phenomenal, with speakers on every level, producing superb sound quality throughout the auditorium, the helicopter noises are so realistic and actually appear to be moving across the theatre to a distant specification. The lighting also needs to be mentioned, with enough scope to mimic explosions, fireworks, the movement of helicopter rotor blades and many other features.
Talking about the cast, for tonight's show we have the personnel in place as per the program, with the role of Kim played by Sooha Kim. Yet again the show was excellent, it just gets better and better, ten shows down the line and I'm still in tears for most of it, even when I know what's coming up.
The act starts with a real tear jerker in 'Bui Doi' sung by the superb voice of Ryan O'Gorman with back up from the Male Ensemble, every time I hear this it brings a tear to my eye, no matter how many performances I see, it happens to be one of my two top favourite songs in the whole show. As the show moves on we see the rejuvenated Engineer in Bangkok with 'what a waste', yet another brilliant song and a scene so full of activity, it adds to the spectacle of this incredible musical. The scene moves to another beautiful song from Kim and John with 'To much for one heart', a total change from the previous one, but wonderfully sung and yet again a few more tears to add to the collection.
The Wow factor carries on with a spectacular scene for 'Kim's Nightmare', a massive section of the show with the entire cast, some incredible singing from everyone taking part, this has to be seen to believed. As the scene changes again we move on to the second of my top favourite songs in the show, Kim and Ellen start off with 'Room 317' a really emotional piece before Ellen has a solo called 'Maybe', sung, it's this song that, for me is the best song in the show, and has me in tears every time. This is followed ' The Confrontation' yet another fabulous song from Ellen and Chris.
Three more songs spring into life before the end of act one. 'You will not touch him', is another extremely moving piece, a duet between Kim and Thuy, a really powerful performance from both, bringing a tear yet again as the scene ends. The scene moves on to the Engineer and his next piece' If You Want to Die in Bed' a change of tempo to a more comical approach which lifts you a little after the past few sad scenes. We end act one on another tearfest moment as Kim sings 'I'd give my love to you' another beautiful piece of music, bringing the act to a fitting end, which makes me crave more, bring on act two.
After a rather hectic start to the morning with 4 inches of snow in Rhymney, I've finally made it to Cardiff Bay to watch two performances of Miss Saigon at the Millenium Centre. Really can't wait to see this fabulous production again, it's lavish, beautiful, full of amazing scenes, great music played by an incredible orchestra, with a host of truly magnificent singers throughout.
With all the shows I watch I never seem to get bored, in fact the more I see them the more enthralled I get, even when I watch two in the same day. The theatre has a massive influence on myself at the moment, so much so I'm approaching my 5th anniversary of watching amazing shows, mostly at the best theatre in the world (The Millenium Centre in Cardiff Bay).

Normally I find the Lifetime chairs & tables on the side of the warehouse. I found this bench in the middle of Costco next to all the other outdoor stuff. This is one of those great items to have for kids birthday parties or events. Setup a couple of these and throw all the kids on them. They're easy to setup/take down & easy to clean. Costco currently sells these online in a 2 pack. The 2 pack costs $79.99 so you are paying $20 more to buy 2 of them vs in store. The benefit of buying in store is you only need to buy 1 at a time. The ratings are great so far too!Only about 20 reviews, but it's got a 4.8/5 rating!If you can't find these in store or onlinebenches……
2 thoughts on "Costco Folding Bench, Core 6 Foot Fold in Half Bench"
Ya, Costco does that with a lot of items. They bundle them in 2 pack to save on shipping. Can be a little annoying if you're only looking for 1 item. I only saw this item for a month or so & haven't seen it in store since. Seems like a GREAT item for the outdoor, camping family. Hope you end up finding them in store!

NBA Rumors: James Harden Almost a Washington Wizard
It was reported earlier today, as James Harden and the Houston Rockets prepare to take on the Washington Wizards, that Harden almost .
That trade didn’t happen and no one is clear on the exact details except for the parties involved but allow me to fantasize briefly. Harden, Nene Hilario, Trevor Ariza, Emeka Okafor, and a healthy John Wall. Wow!
Now lets get to the steak and potatoes of the “purposed” trade. According to anonymous team sources, the deal would have been Harden for just drafted Bradley Beal and second year player, Chris Singleton. To me this deal would sound like a no-brainer. An unproven rookie and second year role player for Sixth Man of the Year. I tend to believe that some picks may have been involved, but since those have not been spoke of, lets talk about what has, the extension.

Meanwhile Dublin City Council has activated its major emergency plan after main roads and shopping centres became waterlogged during the downpours. Two people, including on Irish police officer, have been killed in the flooding.
The Environment Agency claims that whilst the worst may be over for the south-west, rivers and coastal areas in Scotland, Sce may still be affected.
Flood alerts have also been issued in Cornwall and Devon, as well as parts of Wales.
BBC weather forecaster Chris Fawkes said: “It’s certainly going to become much drierth-west England, but the front is going to become slow-moving across north-east England and eastern Scotland now.

- Do you get irritated by little things?
- Is your smartphone always on and close to you at all times?.
- Let prioritising and self-analysis of productivity become a habit
- Exercise and have a healthy diet. When we’re time starved we cut corners and often that can result in too many fast food meals which can leave us feeling sluggish and demotivated. Drink can also be used as a self-medication for stress but conversely it can add to feelings of depression and hinder a restful night’s sleep.
- Don’t always start with the biggest task or greatest priority. We all perform betterbird and sharp first thing but fade after 4pm make sure you keep those taking tasks to the morning. If you’re otherwise inclined reverse it.
- Reacquaint yourself with the word “No” be polite but assertive if you don’t have the time to take on a particular project don’t be afraid to say so – often things that seem urgent to others are not as pressing as they seem.

The Daily Mail complains about the fact that we can subscribe to BBC iPlayer for a lot less than viewers in Britain pay for the licence fee. The newspaper goes on to say that we have access to archive material that is unavailable in the UK and that is unfair.
It is only later in the article that the Mail points out that we cannot receive live streamed content nor can we get the catch up programmes on our version of iPlayer. OK, we may have 2000 hours of content to watch including some classic programmes but that is hardly the same as getting the full BBC service or the programmes available free on iPlayer in Britain.
Towards the end of the article, the Mail reveals its true gripe with our version of iPlayer. It is a well known fact that the Daily Mail hates everything Apple and of course iPlayer is only available through the apps. store which means that Apple receive 30% of the fee. Sour grapes?
I don't know what it is with DM but they nock everything apple all the time and find some obscure article from the techy sites and twist it around all the time.

will garner many smiles and an occasional loud laugh. Some stories will register louder than others but I’m sure for readers it will be a pleasurable experience.
I recently sent a copy of my book to Ken Burns, the documentary filmmaker, along with a cover letter asking him for any advice regarding promoting my book. His producer informed me that Mr. Burns liked what he read but was presently engaged in working on seven projects at this time. However, in a typed letter (not an email) he wrote that he felt my book had some potential for a movie.

</s> The top ranked Florida baseball team loses a rare home series after losing to Mississippi State 2-1 on Sunday. The Bulldogs take two of three in the series and hand Florida its first home SEC series loss since April of last season against Kentucky. Florida is now 29-5 on the season and 8-4 in conference play.
Dane Dunning got the start on the mound for Florida. Lefty AJ Puk was scheduled but he was held out of his second straight start because of soreness in his back. Dunning pitched into the sixth inning with four strikeouts in an effective start. Dunning gave up a homer in the fifth and after was relieved in the sixth inning first by Kirby Snead and then by righty Brady Singer.
Singer got out of the inning with help from first baseman Pete Alonso, who jumped high to snag a potentially errant throw on a grounder to the infield. in the seventh, the Bulldogs plated a run would hold the bulldogs in the 6th with some help from defense. Peter Alonso would jump up at a over thrown ball getting the out to end the inning. I
Peter Alonso believes Anderson was a big key in keeping the Gators in the game.
Anderson would go on to pitch three innings in the game, giving up no runs. However, despite numerous chances, the Gator offense could not get on the board until a two out solo homer by Alonso in the ninth inning. The Gators would leave 13 runners stranded in the game.
Gator coach Kevin O’Sullivan believe’ s offense just couldn’t come up with a big hit but, Mississippi state’s pitching was tough competition.
Up Next, the Gators will take on Florida State in Tallahassee on Tuesday, trying to sweep the season series. Despite the loss, junior pitcher Shaun Anderson believes the Gators will be ready for the Seminoles.

Grew up... as the only boy with seven sisters in a large Italian-American family in Queens. His dad was a pipefitter. Joey loves his sisters dearly, and is very protective of them and their wellbeing. You had to be bold and loud to be heard in the Tribbiani family, which might have inspired Joey to be an actor.
Living… in Manhattan with his best friend Chandler, across the hall from Monica and Rachel. The two roommates do their best to make it the ideal bachelor pad. They’ve got a foosball table, a big-screen TV with cable, and they even add a chick and a duck to the family.
Profession… a struggling actor who’s success is ever-changing: one day he’s playing Dr. Drake Ramoray on Days of Our Lives, and the next he’s...well, attempting to find a fake identical twin in order to get money from a medical experiment. Yep.
Interests… food and women, not necessarily in that order. Joey knows the power of food firsthand – he (inadvertently) helped save his friend Ross’s life with the help of his meatball sub. A pizza aficionado, Joey is also known as the inventor of the Joey Special: two pizzas.
Relationship Status… typically single by choice, but never lonely. Joey is always on his way to or from a hook-up. One secret is his signature opener, “How you doin’?” (It sounds more impressive coming from him.) His friends marvel at his successes with the ladies. Between his stock lines and prepared stories, he somehow makes himself irresistible. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that he’s a good-looking actor.
Challenge… making it, growing up, and settling down without getting too boring. While his friends move through careers and marriages, Joey generally stays Joey. As the others find themselves with more commitments, Joey can find himself feeling like the third, fifth, or even seventh wheel at times. He often sacrifices his own needs for his friends’ happiness.
Personality… simple, genuine, and fun. It doesn’t take much more than a pizza, a beer, and a football game for Joey to have a good time. While perhaps a bit oblivious at times, and certainly not the brightest knife in the drawer (food reference) Joey is a very loyal companion and is always there to help in his way. Sometimes his, shall we say, “uncomplicated” worldview helps his friends out of their own cluttered headspace.

So, whr books on Bible study?
In John 5:39-40, Jesus states you begin learning and putting these things into practice, I want to encourage you to not become discouraged. Many of the principles I present in this book may be new to you, even if you have been a believer for many years. Don't let yourself worry if you are noor if you are not at the spiritual level you think you should be. Some people struggle with these feelings and thoughts, which occasionally causes them to give up or even fall away from the faith. Giving up is something I went through several times, until I learned this truth. Never give up!

PlayStation recently held a contest for gamers to celebrate the God of War Photo Mode. Contestants were asked to submit the best photos that they had been able to take with the mode. Now, the winners of that contest have been unveiled, and they’re even more impressive than we expected.
The Winners of PlayStation’s God of War Photo Mode Contest
PlayStation recently announced the winners of the God of War Photo Mode contest in an update on their website. “We combed over 100’s of images all over the world and were immensely impressed by your creativity and originality of work we saw,” states the update; “whether it was a quiet, self-reflective moment with Kratos in Midgard to a fierce battle with Atreus in Muspelheim.”
The winners of the contest will each receive two prizes; one of the Cook & Becker high-quality art prints, signed by the team, and a Dark Horse “Art of God of War” book.
From the hundreds of entrants, PlayStation has selected nine contest winners; photos submitted by John. L, @ninjerello, @the_macebook, Ian L., @gatirosho, @thehuntervictor, @libraa_sandrai, @_rosapexa, and @linalyx_. The winning images varied greatly, from quiet shots of Kratos or Atreus to dramatic, mid-combat photos. Subsequently, the full range of winning images were posted online for fans to appreciate.
Of course, God of War has no shortage of high-quality concept art; the game’s impressive collection was published in the very same art book which the contest winners have now won; that published by Dark Horse. The art collection was also featured on ArtStation. Likewise, several pieces of artwork were selected by fine art specialists Cook & Becker to be turned into high-quality prints. The contest winners will also be awarded with one of those prints; signed by members of the God of War team, no less. God of War’s Photo Mode is a relatively recent addition to the game. Nonetheless, it seems appropriate that a game with such gorgeous artwork should help players to create their own impressive artwork as well.

The People v. O.J. Simpson Recap: Episode 3 Fact Check
According to Lawrence Schiller’’s house and went to lux L.A. hotspot Chin Chin’s on Father’s “Listen to me,” he tells Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, and Rob, “”ce’s tel“Fame’s complicated.”
Now, moving on to the fact-check of the episode’s highlights, from O.J.’s most famous quote to the drama among the members of Simpson’s defense team.
Tru“Whil “I’m not an American, I’m a black man,”‘I’m not black, I’m O.J.’ ”
“An American Tragedy,” came out. According to Toobin’s’s “clear Time should not have been judged so harshly,” o“”
O.J. Simpson is Kim Kardashian’s godfather.
The evidence Marcia Clark lays out at the press conference: Simpsons blood was found at “Bundy,” i.e., Nicole’s residence, Nicole’s blood was found at Simpson’s Rockingham estate; both Nicole and Ron’s blood were found in Simpson’s Bronco.
Yep, all true. And, according to Robert Kardashian in the future Barbara Walters interview he alludes to during the opening Father’s Day lunch scene, the blood evidence was the most difficult to ignore for him. According to the late Kardashian, Simpson’s other best friend, would-be getaway driver A.C. Cowlings, also found the blood to be evidence of their friend’s probable guilt. As also truthfully shown, the Dream Team’s strategy was to keep the overwhelming DNA evidence either out of court, or to allege its contamination.
F. Lee Bailey’s “most famous client ran.”
True. As Travolta notes with tight-mouth, beady-eyed annoyance, we all saw the movie: The Fugitive. During the 1954 trial that was in many ways a predecessor to the Simpson trial, Dr. Sam Sheppard was convicted of murdering his wife. (In the real trial, he claims to have seen a “bushy-haired man” rather than a one-armed man, as popularized by the television series and movie.) Bailey did not become involved, however, until 1966, nearly a decade after the original trial; he got Sheppard a new trial and an acquittal.

For his career, Williams rushed for 2,321 yards, 16 touchdowns despite missing his entire senior season and getting only 45 carries his freshman year in Fayetteville. </s> A one-game, slap-on-the-wrist suspension isn't enough to stop NHL teams from keeping their banged-up players out of All-Star weekend.
Ovechkin and Toews by rule Pittsburgh Penguins accepted last year with Sidney Crosby. The NHL's rule was first used in 2009 against Detroit Red Wings stars Nicklas Lidstrom and Pavel Datsyuk, and now it has been levied against five of the league's top players.
"We had to make a conscious decision on that," Washington coach Barry Trotz said. ."
Ovechkin and Toews have each appeared at a handful of All-Star Games, and the price of missing a Feb. 2 game is insignificant compared with potential long-term ramifications. Blackhawks physician Michael Terry said Toews left Chicago's game Tuesday with an illness and was symptomatic again Thursday, so he believes ""
Washington will still have three All-Stars, as fellow Russian Evgeny Kuznetsov will replace Ovechkin and join in Nashville. The host Predators now have four representatives, since Toews' replacement is winger James Neal. He joins Nashville defensemen Shea Weber and Roman Josi and goalie Pekka Rinne.
"I think for some players, if you have a lower-back (injury) or groin issues or things like that and you get caught out on some of those long shifts ... you can get caught out there for quite a while," Trotz said. "There's some of those foot races — you take a shot, miss the net or you get a great offensive chance, now there's a race all the way back. When you're fatigued you can probably blow a groin or something. If you have any kind of low-back or groin issues, those are things that could lead to re-injury."
Ovechkin said he hasn't been healthy for a couple of months. As much as he enjoys All-Star weekend, he said he was OK with the organization's decision to hold him out.
"This was a hard decision, but we talk about it, coaching staff, trainers and we tried to battle through it, maybe it's getting better — but it's stayed the same," Ovechkin said. "I h . I don't want to miss important things." </s>ay.

"lucky one".. </s> Leanna Taylor cries as an attorney shows photographs of her son Cooper to the jury M
Leanna Taylor told a jury she tried to be strong for Justin Ross Harris after learning on June 18, 2014, that their only child was dead after Harris left the boy in his car's back seat all day after driving to his job in metro Atlanta.
Taylor, who divorced Harris earlier this year and went back to using her maiden name, acknowledged they had problems in their marriage dealing with sex. He had told her years earlier he frequently wat"If I had, I would have divorced him then," she said.
But Taylor also testified Harris hood. He helped change Cooper's diapers, prepared his meals and would bathe the child. In the mornings, she said, Cooper and his father would sit together in bed watching cartoons.
"He wanted to be the one to push him on a s," Taylor said of her ex-husband. "He wanted to enjoy every second he could with him."
Prosecutors were expected to cross-examine Taylor later Monday afternoon.
On the witness stand, Taylor recalled her son as a cheerful boy who loved to play with toy cars and trucks and often waved and smiled at strangers. When Harris' defense attorney, Madd

Chronic inflammation has been dubbed the deadly, but silent killer because it is most often the inflammation we cannot see. It’s not the pimple on your face or the rash on your arm; it is the inflammation inside of us. Because we don’t have swelling and redness, we may not even be aware that this inflammation exists if it is not causing us pain.
This type of chronic inflammation makes its home in our arteries and makes us more vulnerable to the threat of strokes and heart attacks, either one of which can be fatal. Now, there is a strong link between inflammation and these conditions. Scientists are still working hard to investigate this link. They hope that if they are able to come up with a way to stop inflammation in its tracks, then they can possibly prevent a host of deadly and serious diseases.
It was more than 10 years ago when Time Magazine published an article that showed there was possibly an underlying link between chronic inflammation and many other ailments and diseases. It is believed that inflammation could possibly be linked to arthritis, colon cancer, and Alzheimer’s.
Inflammation is basically our bodies responding to attack. When invaders such as bacteria and infection enter our bodies, the white blood cells rush to combat them. This inflammation – when it is working the way it is supposed to – does its duty and then goes away. What scientists are looking at was when this process goes haywire.
When the inflammation doesn’t disappear, it begins to attack the healthy parts of the body. We call this chronic inflammation and researchers believe this can
Pharmaceutical companies realize that this is a chance for them to make the big money, so they are working to develop cures for inflammation. But their cures involve taking a pill concocted in a laboratory.
There are other, more natural ways to reduce or eliminate chronic inflammation. Nopalea Juice is being hailed as an all-natural anti-inflammatory because its main ingredient – the prickly pear cactus – is known for fighting inflammation.
The prickly pear – also called the Nopal – cactus not only fights inflammation, but is also a natural antioxidant because it contains special pigments called betalains that fight cancer-forming cells. Betalains are also found in Swiss chard and beets, but not many other foods.
Even the infamous Dr. Oz has talked about the benefits of the cactus. He mentions the plant on two episodes of his television show. In one episode, he did a demonstration about how the fibrous plant can help people withn addition, he had comedian Jimmy Fallon on the show and recommended that hangovers be treated with a bit of the cactus juice.
It appears that the prickly pear cactus has helped people who suffer from a host of ailments ranging from acne to migraines to arthritis to fibromyalgia.
Frank Yocanis has been researching and writing about Nopal Juice for the past decade. He has even traveled to the Sonoran desert half a dozen times to study how Nopalea contains amazing properties that help with all kinds of joint pain, including reducing swelling. ife.

'If somebody in your family listens more to your neighbour than you, then doesn't the fault lie with you also? This is what is happening in Kashmir.'

There is a certain edge to his anger and vigour and it electrifies the south Mumbai five-star hotel banquet room, where a small band of anti-current-ideologywallahs -- actor-politician Shatrughan Sinhabusinessman-politician Kamal Morarka, various Congress leaders, as well as many private citizens -- have gathered for the release of Sinha's autobiography, Relentless.
A towering man, clad in kurta, pajamas and a dark blue Nehru jacket, who moves slowly but regally, Sinha dwells on his most important message -- the present Indian's lack of ability to protest.
A day later, in an interview to Rediff.com's Vaihayasi Pande Daniel and Prasanna D Zore, Sinha, articulate and thoughtful, summarises what he feels is wrong with India today:
You were talking at the launch of your book in Mumbai about struggle and protesting.
These days one encounters all kinds of people who have been 'educated' on WhatsApp.
The other day I met a taxi driver who kept telling me that Indira Gandhi was a Muslim, Nehru was a Muslim.
When one hears about the reach of false information on WhatsApp -- and one is hearing that all the time these days -- there are two things that come to mind.
I have never done that in my civil service career. I have always protested when I saw that something wrong was happening. That had led to my transfer from my district in Bihar. That was ultimately what led me to leave that job.
In my civil service career I have said in my book that I have been to jail a number of times.
I didn't go to jail in a corruption case. I went to jail because I was protesting against something and the last term that I served for 17 days was as recently as 2015.
There have been popular protests in this country. The entire galaxy of freedom fighters protested against the excesses of the British regime and wanted India to become independent.
He would have been just another barrister returned from England. But he did that, (he felt) that injustice.
Jayaprakash Narayan protested against the prevailing corruption, the problems in education and staked his life -- in fact he played with his life -- when he was incarcerated and his kidneys were affected.
This is something that should be happening today also with regard to the excesses being committed by the present government on people in Kashmir or the leaders of the Opposition parties.
Politics is playing its role and it is not a sushasan ki sarkar (a government that believes in good governance) but badle ki sarkar (a government that believes in vindictiveness).
So all these are things that should call for a protest. Democracy merely does not mean conducting elections or holding elections once in five years. Democracy means protesting against excesses, whenever those excesses take place instead of waiting for the right time to come. People must be prepared to make that sacrifice.
Point number two: You talked about social media. I will include the entire media -- social, as well as print, as well as video. Social media is, of course, being misused, thoroughly, by the ruling party because they have the resources and they can employ an army of activists on this social media, who are spreading all these false stories, like the one you mentioned about Nehru being a Muslim, Motilal Nehru being a Muslim, Indira Gandhi being a Muslim and all kinds of things, even Mamata Banerjee being a Muslim.
Fake news, totally wrong news, coloured news is being spread through social media, not only through Facebook, but also on Twitter, all forms of social media.
So we will see the newspapers and believe the stories newspapers are dishing out to us, believe the stories that television channels are dishing out to us.
Kashmir is a very good example of that also. There are channels out here, they are going ten steps ahead of the government, in spreading the wrong message given to them.
They have become so utterly unpopular in Kashmir and are doing so much damage to the national cause. But they are not bothered at all, because they are serving the government's cause and they think they are doing good for the country,
WATCH: Yashwant Sinha on why he believes in protest. Video: Rediff.com
They can't do it on the scale at which it is needed, to meet the challenge of the government, because they don't have that kind of resources (to) employ 600 people and place them in Thailand somewhere (laughs) to counter the messages which are being...
I will give you a personal example: Yesterday I was in Mumbai in a public event about the release of the book. And in Pune. I had a very busy and interesting schedule in Pune. The media didn't carry (anything about the event or what was discussed during the book launch).
I met a gentleman on my flight to Delhi today. He said, 'Are you Mr Yashwant Sinha?'
So what could I tell him?!
I am not active because (the media has silenced my voice).
They must have received instructions from somewhere that you must ignore Yashwant Sinha.
Large sections of the media are told what to print, what to discuss, what to write, whose writing should be published, whose writing should not be published.
So in this situation if someone would have told them ignore Yashwant Sinha, would any media house have the courage to carry what I am saying?
IMAGE: Yashwant Sinha on an earlier visit to Kashmir. Photograph: PTI
Why do you think the Modi government is not allowing political leaders like you to meet the Kashmiri people? After all, Kashmiris are also Indian citizens.
The government's revocation of Article 370 has alienated them further. This is not the right approach.
In every report that I have submitted after my visit to Jammu and Kashmir we have emphasised on the importance of dialogue. It is very essential that we engage them in a dialogue and ensure that those who are alienated come back to us.
In a letter written by Jayaprakash Narayan to Indira Gandhi in 1966 he had said very clearly that if we think we will wear them (the Kashmiris) down by force then we are completely mistaken. And that applies as much in 2019.

We provide new results for two-stage games in which firms make capacity investments when demand is uncertain, then, when demand is realized, compete in prices. We consider games with demand rationing schemes ranging from efficient to proportional rationing. In all cases, there is a subgame perfect equilibrium outcome coinciding with the outcome of the Cournot game with demand uncertainty if and only if (i) the fluctuation in absolute market size is small relative to the cost of capacity, or (ii) uncertainty is such that with high probability the market demand is very large and with the remaining probability the market demand is extremely small. Otherwise, equilibria involve mixed strategies. Further, we show under efficient rationing that condition (i) is sufficient for the unique equilibrium outcome to be an equilibrium outcome of the Cournot game with demand uncertainty.
