The wax is incredible for armada proprietors, because of its life span. </s> We are overcoming Corona and continuing to teach our children throughout winters and summers.
We used to and still believe that education is for all. We used to and still believe that education is stronger than crises. We used to and still believe that education should be during all times. So we launched the summer project in Al-Amal Centers: “Education is stronger than Corona” raising the slogan #Stay_home_and_we_get_education_to_you.
Our summer education is characterized by the ability of being adapted to crises, so we reached the children’s camps by distributing assignments and worksheets, which are illustrated by the following pictures:
</s> TheIn a recent blog post titled, Now this is really good news! Reframing the Gospel, he suggests
“The gospel of Jesus paying the penalty for our sin may have resonated powerfully in mediaeval times through to enormous upheaval in thinking, values and attitudes that emerged in Western society in the 1960s. In our era it has lost resonance.”
I suspect that there is a lot more mediaeval in the articulation of the gospel we proclaim today then we would like to admit. Go back toyou will not hear the gospel described this way. The emphasis is placed firmly on the resurrection as a sign that God had done something extraordinary in the world and that all people should follow Jesus. Was the notion that Christ paid the penalty for our sin part of the follow-on teaching that people received after they converted? Maybe. Maybe not.”

This article was published on January 25, 2021o help the ones that do
Offer support to developers who want to grow.
For some developers, building software is only a small part of their bigger professional purpose. By nature, developers grow things — they make a product come to life, work with multiple moving parts, and constantly nurture projects to their maximum potential.
They also have to regularly help teammates and negotiate deadlines with stakeholders. It’s not surprising then, that some developers discover that they prefer working with humans as well as computers.
Still, it can be difficult to know how to support developers that have expressed an interest in leading people. As research shows, 92% of people, so developers need pathways that enable them to explore, learn, and transition into leadership.
Of course, not every developer aspires to go into leadership, but for those that do, here are a few tips I’ve found work great to help them take the leap:
Start by giving anyership more responsibilities.
Encourage them to give detailed feedback to peers in pull requests, present project updates to the team, or undertake a mentorship role. What you’re trying to do is put them in a scenario where they can get a taste of leadership and sample what their unique style would be.
A big part of leadership is also knowing when to delegate, so developers require circumstances where they can practice. Set up task force groups for upcoming projects and be conscious to rotate the lead position among developers that want to merge into leadership.
Let them be responsible for assigning work to others and dealing with the workflows — this exercise will also be an insight into how they prioritize tasks and how that aligns with your company’s priorities.
Another route is to internally brand certain developers as experts in a particular niche and make an effort to send team members to them for guidance on issues around that topic.
Likewise, invite developers to join meetings where business logistics and goals are discussed (meetings they normally wouldn’t be included in), so that they can better comprehend the ‘why’ behind projects.
A leader not only has to be confident in explaining concepts to others, but also grasping the purpose of processes and knowing how they fit into the larger picture.
By exposing developers to higher-level communication, they can see the strategic side of the company and integrate that as part of their journey towards leadership.
Openly communicate and collaborate
One of the biggest roadblocks for anyone hoping to move into another role is feeling like they don’t have visibility. A simple way to overcome that is to keep an open, ongoing dialogue with developers.
Have regular check-ins to ask them how they envision leadership, to let them showcase moments that week where they’ve led someone, or to share opinions about the current management style.
These instances to provide feedback will help developers realize their potential, as well as determine what it is that they like about — or want from — a leadership role.
With that in mind, communication has to take place beyond two people. A technical lead needs the necessary technical expertise, but they also have to share that knowledge.
An important component in transitioning to leadership is subsequently preparing to be redundant at times. Great leaders should be able to curate a self-sufficient team; one that isn’t bottlenecked if they’re out of office.
For this reason, developers that are hoping to be leaders need to easily cross-collaborate with others and explain complex tasks in a straightforward manner.
Try hosting weekly sessions where developers take turns to present and teach one another their daily duties; you could also host quizzes and surveys at the end to see who has shared their wisdom most effectively.
Offer soft skills training
Developers are highly-qualified when it comes to hard skills, but leadership tends to rely heavily on soft skiIn fact, 75% of long-term job success is dependent on mastering such soft skills.
For developers interested in leadership, there should be clear goals and measurements that involve assessing the development and application of soft skills; this can be done via an in-house scale with metrics tailored to the skills that need the most concentration, or you can utilize more standardized 360-degree feedback tools.
Without a doubt, soft skills need a lot of time to fully mature but with the right training, they can surface faster and more completely. Training sessions like workshops, external speakers, and virtual events can help developers acquire new soft skills, while one-on-ones, peer reviews, and standup meetings can be a chance for them to put those skills into practice.
As developers pick up these skills, you’ll likely see them self-reflect more, be able to work with a bigger variety of individuals, and more efficiently give feedback to other team members.
Maintain the growth trajectory
Technical lead has been ranked as one of the most satisfying careers, so there’s a good possibility that more developers will pivot towards similar leadership roles in the future.
Successfully doing so will require personal effort from them but also the support of those already in the role. As part of the existing leadership team, you are responsible for paving the way for others, and supplying the education and tools to let developers advance.
That said, development management is competitive and can certainly be demanding, so developers need to be prepared for the road ahead. While it’s essential to motivate your engineers in their career development, they also need test environments to check that they are appropriate for the change, and that their expectations match with the vision of leadership in your company.
It’s a delicate balance between welcoming people’s unique talents and confirming that they are adaptable enough to lead well.
Tech leads aren’t created overnight, but with the right opportunities, communication and collaboration, and a focus on soft skills, you’ll have the optimal conditions for more leaders to grow healthily and happily.

ed blocks to better reflect the current mixed-use character of the surrounding neighborhood. Elizabeth Unger, a resident and real estate developer, indicated the need for housing to accommodate growing families who wish to stay in Tribeca. Truffles also noted that a majority of buildings within the rezoning area exceeded the existing restrictions on building size (FAR) and would be brought into compliance by the proposal.
On July 12, 2006, the Commission approved the rezoning by 10-1- 1 with Commissioner Angela R. Cavaluzzi voting no and Commissioner Karen Phillips absent from the vote. Chair Amanda M. Burden described the rezoning and text amendment as providing a critical opportunity to ensure that new development complements and enhances the character of North Tribeca. The Commission determined that manufacturing was “on the wane” in Tribeca and that the
current designation had become obsolete. The Commission approved the special permit for parking but, noting that the requested variation on streetwall height was not warranted, modified the application by reinstating the existing maximum of 102 feet.

We have a system. K shops, then I cook the food.
Which worked well until K got in a rut. I’ve introduced him to dozens of recipes over the years and provided him with ingredient lists for those he pronounced yummy, which theoretically should allow him to keep us supplied for a variety of meals and able to choose the ones that fit best with what’s on sale and in season each week.
So then I recently realized he’d bought the food for the same two dishes – and nothing else – for weeks. And I was getting really tired of having my super-charged marinara/sausage sauce over ravioli, followed by chicken in a cheesy florentine sauce, followed by leftovers of each, followed by wherever we decided to go out Friday night. REALLLLLLY tired of it.
After a week or so of munching bread and cheese for dinner, I started to get inspired this week. So two nights ago, I dug out some old frozen tuna burgers and make a sort of tuna-patty-melt with sharp cheddar, spicy brown mustard, fresh tomato, on toasted rosemary sourdough bread. Yum.
Then tonight I stopped by the market and picked up all these fresh veggies (things K doesn’t really eat) and grilled them up. Mmmmm, squash and peppers and portabella mushrooms. And a huge fresh spinach salad with tangy balsamic vinegarette. MMmmmmm.
Perhaps I’ll just go on a rampage of making something fresh and delicious every night and K will eventually be inspired to join me. Or at least start buying a broader variety of ingredients that HE likes.

Did anyone see this? This photograph of a baby girl in Arizona reaching out of her mother's womb, just on the cusp of her birth brought a tear to my eye.
It's a modern Michelangelo for the iphone generation.
What a beautiful, amazing image.
With me it was a cocktail glass! Actually,it's an amazing photo - luckily the surgeon called the father over to take the photo. Is there anything cuter or more heart-lifting than a little baby hand grasping at life? I love it.
GSL- indeed, the good old days!
A modern Michelangelo indeed. Well said.
Kathy: I do too, especially old hands, I see beauty in the toughened sinews and wrinkle carved skin.
Absolutely beautiful image, and wonderful they managed to get a photo. So rare. Thank you for showing us, I love it!
Oh my. I have tears in my eyes, the tiny grasp, I remember how that feels. When babies keep being born, gripping onto their new life with such enthusiasm, it can only mean we should all have hope, right? Life is a good thing.
Wow, I did not see this. Pretty amazing!
that is just spectacular! thank you for this photograph - certainly makes you want to pause and just take it all in.
My baby was born by planned caesar salad and I cry with joy and emotion whenever I see the photos of him being born- thank God for the nurse who took them for me. He was here, he was healthy, he was mine. It remains the single best day of my life ever! People do not realise that there are about 15 people in the theatre when you have a caesar so there are more than enough people to take photos! xxxx
Mine too planned c sec - best thing ever, I don't think either way of giving birth is easy but at least with a planned C you can be organised (mani/pedi/facial/hair done check!) lol.....
Awesome . I was present when my daughter gave birth to my grandson and it was one of the the most amazing and memorable occasions. To witness the miracle of birth is beyond words.
Yes...great words of Yours...è la magia dell'Amore!
Birth is not always so picture perfect, and in the words of FF, a 'planned caesar salad'. Pushing ain't so pretty! You never forget how painful it is. EVER.
C: I honestly do not know how women do it, I cannot imagine the pain, my mum had 4, natural childbirth, all born quietly at home. Of course dad would have been downstairs with the cigars.
---Jill Ann
Incredible. Glad to know I am not the only one that got teary at seeing that.
That's amazing. Thanks for sharing. I read your blog every day and like.
All my life I had a feeling there was something important, bigger than myself which I was supposed to be doing. Then I had kids.
Had not seen this amazing photo,little baby hand so cute.Ida

I'm attracted to this shop like bees to honey.. it's a cake shop and it's awesome. I visit it daily, and the staff now recognise me. Sometimes when I go for my daily fix the crowd is oozing out the door, today in the middle of siesta time the streets are quiet and I took my chance that they would be open, bingo. I bought two cakes today because I missed out yesterday as I had the day trip to Gibraltar. ( Can't count the proper cinnamon bun yesterday as part of my Spanish cake quota!!
today's cakes!!! The cake on the left is something with vanilla and white chocolate and the raspberry topped one has a mascarpone filling. Each cake comes on a little gold plate, then placed on a white cardboard serving platter before being gift wrapped for takeaway!! The cake shop is literally around the corner from my accom so I turn the kettle on as I go out and tea is virtually ready made to have with my cake(s). Teapot is mine of course!!
Just inside the door is their collection of almond pastries. I sometimes have one of those to eat on the way home!!
And the icing on the cake is to be served by this happy young Jose!!

UW has lost its last three games and isn’t scored more than 17 points in the last six outings. The game before that? A 41-19 loss to a Washington State team with a brilliant midrange passing game.
Utah State has a brilliant midrange passing game for an offense that’s put up 42 points or more against everyone BYU Michigan State. The Aggies scores 31 in the opening season loss.
You’ll have to sweat, but if Utah State plays like it has over the last month, it should get there.
You’re probably going to have to hang on for dear life on this one, but the payoff should be there.
Yeah, four of the five losses were by well over 34 points, and the other loss to Syracuse was by 30. However, USF needed everything in the bag to get by Tulsa 25-24, struggled to put away UMass, and only beat East Carolina by seven and Elon by 20.
This a decent Wolf Pack team that should go bowling, but outside of the blowout over Portland State to start the season, the other two wins over FBS teams were by a total of five points.
It’s late, and it’s Hawaii, and it’s only three points.
And the line keeps going down. Cool.

A debit card merchant account is a specialized account which enables your business the option of accepting payments from a debit card.Businesses depend on receiving payments for services they've rendered, and for products they've sold. Without this structure a business would be unable to stay open. Those payments are being made every day in the form of cash and credit cards. It's nice to receive the instant gratification of paper money, but it's even more satisfying to have a merchant account setup, so that your customer can instantly send the balance of their payment into your bank. Almost everyone has a bank account, so they'll have a debit card of some kind in their purse or wallet.
The use of a debit card merchant account is quite simply an additional means for your business to receive payment. Businesses survive and thrive by embracing technology and having a firm financial foundation. This means you'll have talked to your bank or financial institution and have come to the realization that you need the flexibility and security that comes with an ecommerce merchant account.
You can check with your own bank for their merchant account facilities, weighing the convenience of working with your own bank, or use a specialized merchant service provider, dedicated to providing a complete merchant package. Specialized organizations do offer bonus options to their ecommerce merchant account that you won't find at a bank. They may provide flexible leasing of the card processing equipment, or a wider range of acceptable debit cards. They also offer dedicated helplines with twenty four hour technical support. These decisions are all part of the process in your choosing the correct option for a provider. Take your time.
Once you know who your merchant service provider is, it's time to sit down and work out the details. There will be ample guidance and discussion on the advantages of establishing your account. A qualified ecommerce agent will clearly define the first steps that you need to complete before you open your debit card merchant account. Their job is to ensure that you're aware of the payment processing plans that fit your business, so that you can focus on the work of continued financial growth.
The payment processor has relationships with all of the various organizations that will be required to bring your account into operation. They ensure that you have the card processing equipment and superior service required to ensure a smooth and efficient service. All you need is a customer with a debit card.

Frogmore or Beaufort Stew?
I was asked this week if I had any Gullah Recipes. If you don't know what Gullah is, it's an African-American culture that took root soon after the days of slavery. The Gullah settled mainly in the islands along the shores of South Carolina and Georgia, among them: . This gave them privacy to preserve their culture and customs; like basket weaving, cultivating rice, trapping and trading especially shrimp.
When I worked for a trucking company in the '90s, I had a driver that was from the islands around Edisto. His 'handle' on the radio was 'Geechee'.
This is a word to describe the Gullah dialect, also a word to descibe perfectly how he talked.
On the island of St. Helena, where my Mama began a yearly pilgrimage many years ago, you can find the Gullah settlement of Frogmore. It is a simple crossroads with a two-story white country store on one side and a post office on the other. This is the birthplace of Frogmore stew, a boil of assorted seafood, pork sausage, and corn on the cob. My family in Rimini, SC, has always called this a Beaufort Stew. There is the Louisiana Crawfish Boil and the Lowcountry Boil. The names go on forever, and the fight for the origin of each name does also. I believe that when you get to the 'outer banks' or islands of any southern state, if you look hard and deep enough, you will find the deep hidden cultures of time gone past.
Here is my families way of doing this classic Gullah inspired dish!
•crawfish (½ pound per person) If Elliott's Landing has any left, they go fast!
This is usually done outside over an intense heat such as a propane burner. That's the only way to cook this much food all together! Fill a large steamer pot halfway with water. Add crab-boil seasoning. Add halved lemons may. 20 minutes; then add 2" slices of spicy smoked sausage and boil for 5-10 minutes. Add the corn and boil another 5 minutes. Then add the shrimp. Cook for 3 minutes. (Don't wait for it to boil again or you will overcook the shrimp.) Drain, and pile on a tablern, cocktail sauce for the shrimp, and sour cream for the potatoes. ALSO VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure to have a bottle of killer hot sauce for the cousin who's gonna say, "Aw that ain't nothin'!" Then pour it to 'em!!!

1. The cost is lower than the construction of all thermal materials.
4. It can be used in RF applications that require the RF loss characteristics of the PTFE outer surface.
5. Use component windows in aluminum to contain through-hole components. This allows connectors and cables to pass the connector through the substrate, while welding rounded corners to create a seal, without the need for special gaskets or other expensive adapters.

Before lamination, electroplating and dielectric filling of aluminum are stopped in advance. Thermal materials or sub-components can be laminated to both sides of aluminum using thermal adhesive materials. Once laminated, the finished component is drilled similar to a traditional multilayer aluminum substrate.

Thapplication fields, including life sciences, point of care (POC) diagnostics, and environmental applications. They offer many advantages over the existing macroscale systems, including compact size, disposability, higher speed and parallelism of analyses, increased functionality and decreased sample/reagent volumes. In the life sciences, recent research efforts have focused on bio/chemical analyses, pharmaceutical high-throughput systems, and biomaterial surface modification. The interaction of microsystems with living cells and tissues opens a pathway to novel methods of medical diagnostics and therapeutics. Thus, the range of interests has expanded from the molecular scale over single cells to more complex biological systems, and finally, living organisms. Further, several conventional methods in medical engineering for diagnosis and therapy have also been shifting towards miniaturization and MEMS, in vivo and ex vivo monitoring, and smart implants. Last, but not least, environmental applications have focused on developing inexpensive sensors for in situ monitoring of contaminants in the environment for public safety or measuring a person’s exposure to environmental contamination.

More parents are realising their young children are not engaging with nature enough.
This presents a serious problem, and in this 21st century when everything has to be named, the problem even has a name. It’s called Nature Deficit Disorder.
But instead of creating a new malady to explain a situation we have caused ourselves, how about we just say “kids need to get out more” and then do something about it?

Dermal Fb were isolated from 4-mm punch biopsies of skin or from 300-µ–. MSC were obtained from BM mononuclear cells isolated over Lymphoprep (Fresenius Kabi) according to established protocols (42). Humanand in accordance with a favorable ethical opinion from North Tyneside Research Ethics Committee. Fb and MSC were passaged in RPMI 1640 with 20% FCS, or Poietics MSC medium with MSC growth supplements, glutamine, penicillin, and streptomycin (Cambrex). In fibroblast CFU (CFU-F) assays, 103

Dermal Fb were found to be potent suppressors of allogeneic T cell responses to mature moDC. Suppression of proliferation was observed at cell ratios of 1 Fb to 10 T cells, comparable with the effect of BM MSC (Fig. 1C), and Fb did not merely skew the kinetics of T cell stimulation (Fig. 1D). Other components of the skin, such as keratinocytes, did not suppress T cell proliferation at similar cell ratios (Fig. 1F), i.e., a Fb:T cell ratio of 2:1, greatly in excess of that used in the experiments described. Confocal microscopy also confirmed that Fb were closely apposed to dermal T cells and DC in situ (Fig. 1G).

The downstream effects of IFD) but 1-MT at least partially reversed the suppressive effect of stromal cells indicating a potential role for IDO (Fig. 2E). In support of this, immunoblot confirmed that coculture with activated T cells induced IFN-

MoDC-primed T cells cultured with third-party skin showed changes indistinguishable to that of unprimed T cell control (Fig. 4A) demonstrating the host Ag-specific nature of this assay.A) and had identical surface phenotype: MHC class I+, CD73+, CD90+, CD105+, CD14–, CD19–, CD31–, CD34–, CD45–, and HLA DR– (Fig. 5B). Up to 30% of freshly isolated Fb expressed CD271 (Fig. 5B), a marker of BM MSC reported to be associated with higher proliferative and transdifferentiation potential (49). In our hands, primary Fb readily when cultured in appropriate medium (Fig. 5C). Dermal Fb were also easily expanded to high numbers in vitro; up to 109 dermal Fb were grown from a single 5-mm punch biopsy of the skin in 3 wk (Fig. 5D).

The devil attacked Jesus after His 40 days fast when the body was famished.
Satan tried to get Jesus to abandon God by trying to convince Him to seek provision apart from God and not trust or wait on the LORD to provide food at the proper time.
Satan convinced the Israelites that in Egypt they had all they wanted to eat so that their flesh can be satisfied. The devil persuaded them to abandon God to satisfy their hunger.
All I can say is ~ Wow!! This was excellent. Liked the analogy of the dam and the back story with the Exodus.
Amen, hawk2017…our dependence is on Christ strength. Another awesome thing about our God is that He fights all our battles if we give it to Him. Prayer and the reading of Scripture are to sides of the same coin. We cannot do one without the other.
Water and concrete, flesh and faith.! Love it .

The reports of landslides, slope failures, and blocked train tracks has attracted a lot of attention by the news media this winter. Burlington Northern officials suggest this is one of the worst slide seasons in one-hundred years, with a particular focus on their tracks between Edmonds and Everett. Nearly 200 slides have occurred this winter, with 56 of them large enough to reach the tracks. On Sunday another slide stopped trains service between Seattle and Everett, after a very rainy day on Saturday. A huge slide on southern Whidbey Island has isolated dozens of homes and even Governor Inslee came to take a look. Yesterday, I got a call from a reporter (from KUOW of all places!) wanting
If we go back 6 months, the region around Everett stands out more, reaching 130-150% of normal. Yes, a bit wet, but I suspect we could find other periods to equal it.
As a next step, I plottedt the cumulative precipitation at Paine Field in Everett. For the last twelve weeks, it has been drier than normal (by about an inch).
Plotting the last six months, we see that the cumulative precipitation is substantially above normal (about 5 inches), with the big contributor being in November and December).
At nearby Everett Junior College 8.61 inches fell in December, the most since 1933 (when 10.81 inches hit the gauge).
Now there has been a lot of loose talk about all these slides having something to do with a trend in precipitation, perhaps associated with global warming. Well, let's use a tool on the Washington State Climatologist site to plot the trend of precipitation at Everett (see below). The trend is downward...it is getting a bit DRIER at this location over the past century. So no reason to expect increasing precipitation trouble in the near future for that area and no reason to place the blame on human-induced global warming.
As the summer and fall months rapidly approach, the natural concern is about water:
Will there be enough water to maintain stream flow for fish and to support the large (and growing) agriculture east of the Cascade crest?
Will our demands have enough water for effective power generation and modest rates?
We now have enough information to answer these questions: We are in good shape.
Let's begin by looking at the current state of the snow pack, or more specifically the snow water equivalent (SWE)--also known as snow water content. Snow melt is the main source of water during the dry part of the year. As seen below, Washington has near normal snow water content, ranging from 129% in the Olympics, to roughly 110% in the Cascades, and approximately 85% in eastern Washington. Oregon and Idaho are a bit below normal, with only the southeast corner of Oregon being seriously dry. We can thank a wet November and December for putting the NW in a good position.
California is in trouble with Sierra snow water contents between 50-70%.
Strong Winds Buffet California
It is well known that Californians are weather wimps compared to tough, hearty Northwesterners. So when I started getting calls today of powerful, damaging winds hitting the Bay Area and southern California, I was ready to dismiss it as the baseless complaints of hot-tub lovers in lotus land. No strong oceanic cyclone was in sight! But when I looked into the matter more carefully I was surprised by what I found and the somewhat unusual nature of the winds.
Most of these winds were from the north and northwest, a somewhat unusual direction for powerful winds in that region. No Santa Annas or Pacific cyclones.
Twelve hours later the trough made it to California and a huge height (pressure) gradient developed over coastal California. Such gradients are associated with very strong winds at this level and below.
Well, gorgeous weather is in store for the Golden State after this storm passes, and our weather looks decent for a few days. But the latest model runs suggest that NW weather will turn cool and wet over the weekend, with the potential for very low snow levels by Sunday and Monday. Perhaps the last hope for TV news snow hypesters!

We are in for a wet period during the next day as a low pressure system moves across northern Oregon. Here is the 24-h rainfall ending 5 PM on Sunday....a soaker in the Cascades and western Oregon.

But I have an idea. We have the technology to provide graphic simulations of forecast weather and many of you have the technology in your homes right now....video game systems. The idea first occurred to me when I was watching my kids play with a game on their Xbox system. It was one of these (excessively) violent war games and I noticed that it had all kinds of weather effects built in...clouds, winds, sandstorms, precipitation...and some of the renderings were quite realistic.
EA Sport's Football game allows one to download real-time weather information from the Weather Channel and to see that weather during the simulated game (information here). Better than that, the weather conditions alter the game play.
There is even academic articles on simulating weather in video games (link here).

The Wettest Place in the U.S.
Mount Waialeale is usually engulfed in clouds!
As moist subtropical/tropical air ascends the eastern/northeastern slopes it is cooled to saturation, resulting in clouds and persistent precipitation on the windward slopes and over the crest. In contrast, precipitation declines rapidly on the lee side away from the incoming wind (see precipitation map). So on eastern side from Lihue (southeast side, the biggest town) to Princeville (on the northern side) 40-100 inches a year is observed. In contrast, the southern side from Poipu to Barking Sands Navy base is much drier, with some locations getting less than 25 inches. Barking Sands is the venue for top secret military activities.
When the air is less stable, the lifting causes stronger cumulus and cumulonimbus clouds to form and the windward side and mountain crests become engulfed in clouds. Here is an example of such conditions on March 22nd, when I was trying to enjoy some sun. As a meteorologist, I retreated to the sunny southwest side of the island to a Kauai coffee plantation. You have to do what you have to do.
Now, trade winds from the east to northeast don't always blow, particularly during the winter and early spring when weather disturbances can move past the islands to the north.
In fact, on Saturday the remains of a front moved through Kauai and the winds switched to the north. The result? The clouds moved more to the northern side of the island...here is the associated satellite image (from today, April 2). See the difference?
There is a National Weather Service radar on Kauai, but for some reason it is located on the southern, dry side of the island and thus unable to view approaching trade wind showers and the heavy precipitation on the northeast side of the island since the terrain blocks the radar. Go figure. Here is a sample image from this radar.

GUAIMARO, Cuba — After two papal visits, the Roman Catholic Church enjoys growing support from long-suffering Cubans yet support from the Communist Party that rules this island nation can be described as reluctant at best.
There's a strain here on what elsewhere in the Americas is taken for granted — whether it's being forced to celebrate Mass in someone's crumbling home, or having government agents sitting in on sermons to keep a leash on what's said from the pulpit.
"This place is at zero as far as I'm concerned," said Rev. Alberto Reyes, a 44-year-old parish priest in the central Cuban town of Guaimaro, 250 miles east of Havana.
"It's distinct because ... it's not a neutral place," he said of the homes in which Mass is offered. "The place is small, there is no silence (for reflection). People get distracted. The neighbor plays music, or they are talking. And there's the unpleasant smell of pigs."
Catholic Church's role in Cuba has grown since last papal visit
"They view us as a threat," the diminutive priest said. Of particular concern, he said, is any message against abortion, a central tenet of the church.
Cuba officially was an atheist state until a constitutional change in 1992 that declared the nation secular. Abortion is a state-provided service, along with inexpensive birth control offered at state companies. It's an issue that government officials do not welcome discussion on, and Santana said he's twice been the subject of complaints to his superiors from government minders.
"It's like we are starting over," said Santana, who noted last year was the first time in 53 years that the church was allowed to send the statue of Our Lady of Charity of Cobre — Cuba's patron saint — to parishes across all of Cuba
"People want to express their religiosity but have not been sufficiently able," he said.
Cuba's Roman Catholic leaders say being allowed to build new churches, rather than just restore ones that are in varying degrees of ruin, would be a start. So would be allowing the church to offer education in parallel with public schools, or having some exposure to religious tenets in schools.
"That's the million-dollar question," said Alfredo, 47, a Jehovah's Witness in Havana who practiced his faith clandestinely for most of his life but now is more public about his beliefs.
Jehovah's Witnesses, known for going door-to-door to preach their faith, have been allowed large temporary assemblies in Cuba but like the Catholic Church are prohibited from building new churches. They must conduct services in makeshift fashion. Concerned about retribution, Alfredo asked that his surname not be used.

plaining Efficient Search for Conjunctions of..."
Abstract Dent, Humphreys, and Braithwaite (2011)showed substantial costs to search when a moving target shared its color with a group of ignored static distractors. The present study further explored the conditions under which such costs to performance occur. Experiment 1 tested whether the negative color-sharing effect was specific to cases in which search showed a highly serial pattern. The results showed that the negative color-sharing effect persisted in the case of a target defined as a conjunction of movement and form, even when search was highly efficient. In Experiment 2, the ease with which participants could find an odd-colored target amongst a moving group was examined. Participants searched for a moving target amongst moving and stationary distractors. In Experiment 2A, participants performed a highly serial search through a group of similarly shaped moving letters. Performance was much slower when the target shared its color with a set of ignored static distractors. The exact same displays were used in Experiment 2B; however, participants now responded "present" for targets that shared the color of the static distractors. The same targets that had previously been difficult to find were now found efficiently. The results are interpreted in a flexible framework for attentional control. Targets that are linked with irrelevant distractors by color tend to be ignored. However, this cost can be overridden by top-down control settings.
Human behavior takes place in a complex, cluttered, dynamic environment. The human visual system can not simultaneous- ly process all of this information (see, e.g., Broadbent 1958; Tsotos, 1990). Mechanisms of selection are required in order to prioritize relevant and to deprioritize irrelevant stimuli for further processing and action. The visual search task (see Chan & Hayward, 2013; Wolfe, 1998; Wolfe & Horowitz, 2004, for reviews), in which an observer is required to find a target amongst a set of spatially distributed distractors, has been used extensively to characterize these mechanisms of selection. In the visual search task, the slope of the function relating the number of potential targets to RT (search slope) is the primary measure of the efficiency of a given search. Certain targets may be detected highly efficiently, with little increase of RT as the number of items increases. In the extreme, when the search slope is close to zero, all of the items in a display may be processed in parallel. For example, the visual system is highly sensitive to differences in the gross features of objects; a single red item amongst green items may "pop out" effortlessly from a display, and may be very difficult to ignore (e.g., Theeuwes, 1992; see Theeuwes, 2010,fora review). (FIT; Treisman & Gelade, 1980; Treisman, 2006) and its derivatives (e.g., Guided Search [GS], Wolfe, 1994, 2007; dimension weighting [DW], Müller, Heller, & Ziegler, 1995; Krummenacher & Müller, 2012), these basic features are represented in distinct feature maps within dimensional mod- ules that code the gross distribution of a particular feature in the environment; thus, these feature maps alone may signal the presence of unique features. In contrast, recovering more detailed information, including how multiple features are con- joined, requires spatial selection, producing search slopes greater than zero, as single items or small groups of items are inspected in turn.

The Curious Case Of A Missing Academy Award 4:24
< The Curious Case Of A Missing Academy Award
February 22, 200912:01 AM ET
Academy Award history is littered with fascinating stories including more than a few about missing and stolen Oscars.
Just days before the 2000 ceremony, 55 statuettes disappeared from a Los Angeles loading dock. All but two were later recovered. Then, there's the case of Hattie McDaniel. The native of Wichita, Kansas got her statuette as Best Supporting Actress for the 1939 epic, "Gone with the Wind." She was the first African-American to win an Oscar, but hers has been missing for some 40 years. Carla Eckels of member-station KMUW in Wichita looks into the mystery.
CARLA ECKELS: Hattie McDaniel acted in more than 300 movies, but she's best known for her role as Mammy, the maid in "Gone with the Wind."
Ms. VIVIEN LEIGH (Actor): (As Scarlett O'Hara): Mammy, darling.
Ms. HATTIE McDANIEL (Actor): (As Mammy) No use to try to sweet talk me, Miss Scarlett. I know you ever since I put the first pair of diapers on you. I said I was going to Atlanta with you, and going I am.
ECKELS: Carlton Jackson, author of "Hattie: The Life of Hattie McDaniel," says he thinks the actress sensed she was in the running for an Academy Award.
Mr. CARLTON JACKSON (Author, "Hattie: The Life of Hattie McDaniel"): She wrote to some of her friends that she was sort of holding her breath waiting for the announcement, but she didn't make a big deal of it until she got it. Then she made that speech where she could just barely finish because she was overcome emotionally.
(Soundbite of Academy Award Ceremony)
Ms. McDANIEL
ECKELS: In the years before World War II, winners in the Supporting Actress category received plaques, not the Oscar statuettes. McDaniel proudly displayed hers at her home. Towards the end of her life, author Carlton Jackson says she became ill from breast cancer.
Mr. JACKSON: She began to parcel out various of her worldly goods, and s
ECKELS: The plaque went on display at Howard's fine arts complex. Thomas Battle is the currentd. He says that exactly when the award disappeared remains a mystery.
Mr. THOMAS BATTLE (Director: The understanding that I've developed has been that it was probably in the late 1960s or early 1970s or perhaps during a period of student unrest at the university. But unfortunately, all of the principals who would have been involved at the university at that time, administrators and others, are no longer with us, and we have not been able to get the kind of direct information that we would like to be able to pursue this investigation further.
ECKELS: Denise Randle was there. Beginning in 1972, she was responsible for tracking the university's inventory of artifacts. If the plaque did disappear during the student unrest of the late '60s, Randle says it might have been thrown away by someone upset that the award was for a black woman's role as a servant.
Ms. DENISE RANDLE: The sentiment at the time, if it was during the upheaval, it's quite possible, someone being upset with her role. At that time, it was black power, black power, but they may not have understood where she really stood in the film industry and the pioneer that she was.
ECKELS: But Randle, who now lives in Wichita, says she thinks McDaniel's Academy Award was simply misplaced.
Ms. RANDLE: I think it was someone who moved it to a safe place and then didn't tell anyone where they moved it and then since either retired or forgot about it. But in looking at the fine arts department where it would be the most logical place, we couldn't find it.
ECKELS: For nearly 20 years, Wichita actress Karla Burns has portrayed Hattie McDaniel in one-woman shows. She has her own theory about what happened to the plaque.
Ms. KARLA BURNS (Actress): I do not believe that Hattie McDaniel's Oscar was thrown away. I believe that it was stolen. The representation of African-American people at that time was very powerful because she had done something no one else had ever done. And the next African-American woman to win was 51 years later with Whoopi Goldberg.
ECKELS: But there's one more possibility. Everyone could have been looking for an Oscar statuette and overlooked the plaque McDaniel actually received. For NPR News, I'm Carla Eckels in Wichita.

On most building projects skirting and crown mouldings are required. PVC skirting and moulding is a great decorative material that has many advantages. Also, UPVC panels can be a great choice for outdoor wall panelling or ceilings. In this article we want to show that PVC in form of skirting board or panels can be a great alternative to traditional alternatives.
PVC Skirting helps to keep corners clean – especially in bathrooms it is draining dirt and water to the floor. A. Further, is protects the wall when mopping the floor and cleaning. Thus, skirting is being used in all commercial buildings and mostly also in residential ones. Crown Moulding on the other hand is mostly used for an aesthetic purpose. Here PVC as material that is commonly used because of its attributes. PVC skirting and moulding are made of PVC foam, which is super durable and doesn’t require a lot of care. This makes it to a perfect material for these purposes.
PVC Panels are often used as ceiling cladding in offices and other commercial areas. They are cheaper than aluminium ceiling, easy to install and very durable. Due to its resistance to water, PVC panels are also suitable for bathroom, pool areas or others rooms with a high humidity. Further, WPC panels can be used outdoor, because it’s UV-resistant, while it can imitate natural materials such as wood. But the real value lies in its simple installation. Like a click flooring system, the panels can be applied on an existing wall, without much effort. These wall cladding systems don’t require glue or mounting brackets and everything is set up within a short time. Thus, these panelling and wall systems are perfect for utility areas, workshops, refurbishments and showrooms/ retail stores.

We strive to understand the personas of your typical targeted recipients. Who are they? What do they like? Where do they get information?
Then, we ask someone with a similar persona at Email Authors to review every message after it is written.
For example, “Fitness Joanne” might look at a message about a new yoga studio.

Much prefer Dia’s look…the shoes on Parineeti drown the presentation.
Parineeti all the way. Dia wears the same ole same ole frock like she is still a teen.
Parineeti needs to vary her poses a little. She is always seen with her legs crossed and lately with hands on her waist believing that it gives the impression of her being smaller.
I find Parineeti very natural and fun in general, but I continue to be baffled by her shoe choices. Why always a size bigger than they need to be? And this one should’ve been in a colour that popped.!! </s> Sloppy JoeWatch Full Episode

This book is a tragic tale of friendship, determination and power. It had me on the edge of my seat the whole way. This makes me feel certain that this book was full of suspense and cliffhangers. Even though my heart was in my mouth with terror, I kept on reading, because it made me feel like I had to finish it.
All will be revealed in Hitler's Angel, a fast paced book, which will leave you with tears of joy and anguish dripping down your face!

Hitler's Angel is a fascinating story set in World War 2. It is about a boy and a girl whose undercover names are Otto and Leni. They have both been specially picked out to embark on a dangerous mission to retrieve a girl from a small German island. This is a girl who could bring down Hitler himself! During their quest they undergo many conflicts and life threatening dangers. Will Otto and Leni fulfil their mission and bring back this most important girl in time and with their lives in tact?
Overall, I enjoyed Hitler's Angel. The plot was both captivating and original. I would recommend this book to Michael Morpurgo fans. This is most certainly a good book for probably nine to fifteen year olds. by William Osborne.
Reviewed by Mackenzie.
When they agree to go on the mission, they don't know what they've got themselves into. It all begins with training where they learn how to shoot a gun and much more. As soon as they are in Germany, they get a boat out to the convent where the girl is held. They have a few problems getting her out, but are soon on the way back. When you get deeper into the story there is more danger, adventure and the most feared man in German is out to get them.
I loved reading every page of this book. Every chapter has its own great adventure. The fabulous description makes it a book to enjoy. I would recommend this book to 8-13 year olds.
Hitler's Angel is very mysterious, something I like in a book; neither you nor the characters know much of what is happening for the best part of the book. I think that the plot moves slightly too slowly at the start. Most of the action occurs in the latter chapters of the book.
Both boys and girls will enjoy this book, but it does contain some guns and pain. This is all part of the drama of the plot and the drama of the war but considering this, boys might find it more appealing and prefer the style of writing, but it all depends on what you like in a book. Personally, I enjoy more fictional and mysterious books rather than historical facts, but I found that this book was the perfect balance between the two. It contains real people, places and interesting facts (I learnt a lot whilst reading) but the actual plot is fictional.
Because the book is set in Germany, it contains many German words, places and well known German people. This is good as it adds to the sense of reality, but I do not know many German words, places or well-known German people, so I think that there should be more translations or maybe footnotes. These were really the only bad points but overall I felt it was an upbeat page turner that I learned plenty from and it made me want to read on.oo.

In Twilight of the Idols Nietzsche discusses his views on Christianity, other philosophers, and authors of his time. Nietzsche’s main focus, however, is on Christianity and how its actions and views are means to an end. He uses eloquent diction that sometimes loses the reader (he makes up for his articulate word usage with elementary sentences which describe his views very efficiently) along with syntax which is very informal - for the time - to describe his views on subjects quite exquisitely. His logic is the logic which is always right; he never contradicts himself or makes a statement without support. Nietzsche’s use of rhetorical strategies [i.e. diction, syntax, and figures of speech] helps him to make his points and support them in a style which help him attain his underlying goal: to make the reader think.
Nietzsche uses an elevated level of diction to help him achieve his purpose, he uses Latin in many passages to make the reader look to the bottom of the page and thus think about what he is proposing. His combination of elevated diction along with deductive reasoning can sometimes lose the reader, but just as fast as the reader is lost Nietzsche offers forth a formula which helps the reader follow his thinking. Nietzsche believes that a person’s "virtue is the consequence of happiness," or that a person’s emotions are the product of their beliefs. Nietzsche’s uses consequence to mean something more like cause than effect. He interchanges monosyllabic and polysyllabic - in the form of metaphors - words in connotation to sometimes differ the reader from the beaten track of thinking. He believes in a set course "that he became ill, that he failed to resist the illness," for humans and that they cannot deter from it (this is very far left in a time of conservative Europeans, late 19th century). Even in his "formulas" Nietzsche’s meaning is not as straight forward as it seems. It seems that he believes that individuals genetically are means to an end, but this is more of a metaphor for humanity, or that humanity is their own means to an end.
Nietzsche use interesting syntax to evoke thought from his reader. His dependent clauses (in this excerpt, but not in others) relate back to the main clauses causing the reader to re-read the sentence or begin to formulate their own ideas (based upon what they just read).
"On Religion: Rhetorical Devices." 123HelpMe.com. 21 Sep 2017
Rhetorical Choices in Political Speeches - Every four years during any US Presidential election overzealous patriotism hits an all time high, and it truly shows with the citizen turnout at the newly elected President’s inaugural ceremony. In the months leading up to election day, Presidential candidates attempt to persuade voters to cast ballots in their favor through different forms of advertising which contains strategic rhetoric and political language. Political language otherwise known as “political propaganda”, is designed to influence masses of people within a nation, and even across the globe....

A Rhetorical Analysis of Barack Obama's "Interfaith Prayer Vigil" Essay - ... Because he named each specific victim, gave his prayers, and offered his love, Barack Obama was successful in his use of eulogy in this speech. Considering that this speech was a eulogy, Obama was able to appeal to his audience on an emotional level as well, and allude to the Bible and to God, in order to capture his audience. He started this by opening the speech with scripture and saying, "For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven..." He quoted this to help introduce the remembrance of the victims, and to share his feelings of sadness.... [tags: rememebering the tragedies]
Essay on Rhetorical Devices and Ambiguity - Rhetorical devices are used in almost everything that we read, watch, or listen to. Literary Devices (2014) defines rhetoric as “Rhetoric is technique of using language effectively and persuasively in spoken or written form. It is an art of discourse, which studies and employs various methods to convince, influence or please an audience” (para. 1). While the history of rhetoric dates back to ancient Greece and was reserved to be used by only noble people today we see it used everywhere. Some of the more common rhetorical devices that are used today include oxymoron, sarcasm, irony, and contradiction.... [tags: language, discourse, pathos]
Essay about Comparsion of Voltaire and Gronniosaw´s Philosophy - ... Voltaire’s choice of character names is also significant. For instance, Candide implies pureness and simplicity.

However, despite ‘sound judgement,’ he is over optimistic, and no matter what conflict he endures, it never affects his enthusiasm. However, when faced with a crisis Candide does not know how to react, subsequently his naivety completely paralyses his sound judgement.... [tags: language, techniques, religion, satirical]
"Everything good…" relates perfectly to his previously mentioned view that the church and morality are forcing people to think and react in a certain way. He writes in a deductive, repetitious way that helps the reader to slowly understand what he is saying. He starts with a general statement "The most general formula…" which goes into his idea that the church and religion kills instinct and ends the piece with "Everything good is instinct…" which shows Nietzsche repeating his beginning formula [although there is one more sentence after this beginning with "Effort is an objection," the sentence is foreshadowing the next section about what people can do to retain their individuality). He uses repetition only to build emphasis that he sees the losing of instinct as the evil religion has done to humanity and that humanity without religion would be instinctual. Nietzsche also uses parallel structure, in the form of italics, to make his point ring clear. He believes himself to be the only ‘German with intelligence’ and proves himself with "My restored reason:…" which shows he is arrogant and self righteous. The fact that he was arrogant doesn’t do much to defer from his point, although it does add some irony to his words. Nietzsche uses antithesis as his basis for writing. He heavily contrasts any point he makes with the ‘flaws’ of Christianity. He makes points that refute the divinity of Christianity by pointing out "The Church and morality say:…" and then "My restored reason:…" which heavily shows contrast between his reasoning and the church’s.
Nietzsche further uses non-traditional figures of speech to get his reader to formulate ideas based on his writing. Nietzsche employs analogies, which are sometimes hard to follow, to help his views to impress the reader over his opposition. Such is the case in "His friends say:…" and "I say:…" which is an analogy about human existence. He means that the church is killing mankind because it is taking away man’s instinct and because of that man won’t survive. In the passage Nietzsche equally states his opponents views with his own which has an effect of making the reader think that he is trying to be "equal." For every view he presents he offers the church’s version then offers his view and why he think that way. "Every morality…" comes after a statement of what religion’s paradigm is (he refutes with equal exposure for both his position and the opposition). Nietzsche uses oxymoron to show how religion is actually hurting the people it thinks is doing good. He points out that the church isn’t necessarily suppressing its members, but moreover it is slowly weakening its members instinct. Nietzsche points out that "the party will ruin itself…" and means that is religion’s paradigm of the atheist.
Nietzsche doesn’t necessarily try to make the reader think that his way is right, as pointed out in the introduction. His goal is to make the reader think, even if it’s against his views. Nietzsche is successful in making his reader think, any reader would agree. He meets his goal most successfully because he was an outstanding author who could make his points in a very effective way.

As per my previous entry below, spent pretty much the entirety of the Memorial Day weekend working on the Cherub shoot: three straight 12-hour days full of fun, mayhem, vampires, interdimensional portals, eye-impaling pencils, pirate treasure, witches, evil Santas, haunted rolls of toilet paper, naked Swedish booze twister, corrupt lawyers, teddy bears, tiki bars, and gin-drinking zombies.
But seriously, these kids make up in sheer moxie, determination and enthusiasm what they lack in knowledge, experience and common-sense (because nobody in their right mind would attempt to pull off what they're doing); and even there the learning curve is so steep that you can literally see the process improving on a daily basis.
I wasn't involved in the first "season" shooting, so I only have the recollections of those who were there to go by, but by all accounts, this second go-round is decidedly more ambitious both in scope and execution. For example, last time, they shot with a single High-Definition video camera, while this time, they're using two, which makes getting all the different setups and angles go much quicker. Also, they've secured the services of a bona-fide Director of Photography, which again, has streamlined the process tremendously, as well as ensuring some really nice footage. And finally, they've expanded the production to include a whole range of support personnel: assistant camera operators, grips (the people who move lighting equipment & scenery around), props managers, production assistants, food services, etc., etc., so not only are there more bodies involved, but there are now people assigned to specific tasks, thus freeing up the cast and director from having to do all of this themselves, which is pretty much how they handled things previously.
So, we've generally had roughly 15 - 20 people involved in each day's shooting, including actors, crew & support staff. That's miniscule by professional standards, but by just about any other measure it represents a tremendous amount of logisticalwork gets done on-schedule. Because the producers have alloted a mere 10 days to complete principle photography for a 13 episode "season", there's very little margin for error; one bad session (as happened on Sunday - see Scotto's journal entry for more details) can throw the whole process into chaos. Fortunately, we were able to make up some of the lost time, but as of yesterday when we broke, pretty much all of the cushion of extra time set aside for just this contingency has now been filled, which means the remaining 7 days have to go exactly according to plan.
Which, even by the most optimistic estimation is pretty much impossible.
What's even more impressive, however is that when they complete the shoot by (hopefully) the end of next weekend, they fully intend to have the first episode edited and ready for downloading by the middle of June - which surely is going to bring several of the primary participants close to the edge of physical and mental exhaustion, but again, it just goes to show how much they believe in what they're doing that they'd even attempt such a feat.
Because you know what? I think they might just be crazy enough to pull it off.

The city of Wharton, Texas, is 60 miles southwest of Houston on the northern banks of the Lower Colorado River. Although a heavy toll on Wharton — like so many other communities in that area of Texas — flooding is a recurrent problem, particularly for the city's West End neighborhood.
Much of the flooding in Wharton occurs because of extreme rain events upriver. After another significant flood in 1998, all levels of government came together to conduct a feasibility study to find a solution. The city, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and Texas Water Development Board resulting in a 2006 conceptual plan for a flood protection system, including internal drainage and channel improvements, levees, and floodwalls.
After many years of advocacy and damage from more flooding events, in July 2018 the Army Corps of Engineers allocated $73 million to the city for the flood protection system. The city wants to leverage the large engineering project by aligning other plans and projects that will benefit the community. The city wants to identify opportunities to integrate and connect new hazard mitigation infrastructure with existing greenways, empty lots, parks, potential future public spaces, and primary hubs for public services.
The Wharton "Recovery Planning Assistance Team" project is one of the APA Foundation's 2018 Disaster Recovery Grant recipients. The project is supported by the Pisces Foundation through a grant awarded to the APA Foundation that focuses on building back better with green infrastructure after disasters.
Team leader Ennis Davis, AICP, and APA programs manager Ryan Scherzinger, AICP, conducted a preliminary visit to Wharton on November 16, 2018.
Following the preliminary visit, Davis and Scherzinger recruited additional volunteer team members (listed below) with specific expertise for the project. The full team visited Wharton on February 22–25, 2019. They met with stakeholders across the city whose input will help inform the team's recommendations. The team's final report is forthcoming.

DAL.Files.File file = new DAL.Files.FileAccess().GetById(Id);
return File(file.Content, file.FileType);
GetById method return a file from SQL DB, when the file type is text or picture every thing is OK and correctly shown file, but when the file type is different like PDF that show some Unicode, so how can I shown PDF file correctly, or let the user download it?
A: The second argument to the File() method needs to be a mime type. So say your file is a PDF, it should work if you do this:
// assuming file is a PDF
return File(file.Content, "application/pdf");
To force a download instead, use the File() overload that takes a 3rd argument:
return File(file.Content, "application/pdf", "some-pdf-file.pdf");
A: As mentioned above you need to add the appklication/pdf, however I also needed the headers to be correct.

“There is a high probability that typhoons generated close to Taiwan will get here, all being a type of the sudden and powerful autumn typhoon,” stated in the article published by the WRA on Feb. 18.
The article stated that this year’s weather will be influenced by the La Nina phenomenon (extensive changes occurring in), which could trigger several autumn typhoons this year. After the typhoon is formed, it could hit Taiwan in a short period of two or three days, resulting in great difficulties in preventing disasters, the agency added.
The WRA is not only suspected of violating the meteorology law, but the false report might also have brought about unnecessary confusions in typhoon preparations, the Liberty Times reported. According to the article XVIII of meteorology law, agencies, schools, organizations and individuals licensed by the CWB are permitted to release information on climate or marine forecast, but are not allowed to announce news on alerts and any predictions of disastrous weather conditions. The head of the Weather Forecast Center Zheng Ming-dian said that last year’s La Nina phenomenon will weaken or entirely disappear this year. Typhoons may be more frequent, but arrive earlier and less will possibly hit Taiwan. Therefore, the typhoonyear and must be followed by different response measures.
The WRA confirmed that they released improper news, affecting disaster prevention preparation. WRA Deputy Director Wu Yue-hsi said that the information was based on observations provided by NASA as well as on the serious floods in the Southern hemisphere. Wu said the agency was informing the president on water disaster prevention and its report did not involve professional meteorological forecasts.

Mahomes, Herbert on primetime stage as Chiefs visit Chargers
Kansas City committed four turnovers in the first meeting that led to 21 Los Angeles points, but Mahomes and company have been rolling since overcoming their early season struggles.
“I think we could continue to play better and better. You want to keep building as the season goes on,” said Mahomes, who is fifth in the league with 3,642 passing yards.
“We’re facing a really good Chiefs team on Thursday, so it’s going to take all of us,” said Herbert, fourth in the league in passing yards with 3,822. “pretty good football.”
Herbert is the first player to reach 30 touchdown passes in his first two seasons and has the most completions by a player through his first two seasons (734). With 8,158 passing yards, he needs 39 to surpass Andrew Luck for most in a player’s first two years.
COVID-19 TOLL
Chargers OT Rashawn Slater and Chiefs WR Josh Gordon tested positive Monday while Kansas City DT Chris Jones entered league protocols Tuesday. Chiefs LB Willie Gay Jr. was added Wednesday.
Gordon has been a bit player in the Chiefs offense, but Jones is perhaps their best pass rusher, putting more pressure on defensive ends Frank Clark and Melvin Ingram. Nick Bolton and Ben Niemann should get most of Gay’s snaps.
“Probably the only guy you can compare him to is Aaron Donald,” Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu said of Jones. “You’re talking about inside dominance. It’s going to be a big challenge to replace him but we’re healthier than ever defensively.”
“Obviously he’s hurting from the situation,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. “He was very close to his brother. But like I’ve said, he’s on his way back and I think it’l”
REELING IT IN?
Herbert is 7 of 11 with two touchdowns on deep passes (in the air at least 20 yards) over the past two weeks, but he has struggled against the Chiefs. He is 2 of 9 on deep balls in his matchups against Kansas City.
Kansas City has allowed only 18 completions on deep passes this season, which is tied for 10th-best in the league.

I’m using the OSSC with my original xbox. The 480p image it puts out is really nice. However I do have an issue. I can’t adjust the monitor using the OSD controls enough to actually completely fill the screen horizontally. I don’t really know how it works, but I’m assuming it’s because the OSSC is outputing a wider image than what is actually being displayed if that makes any sense.
Is there anything I can do to correct this? It’s not terrible, since it’s probably half an inch off the width of the monitor, so it’s fairly large still, but I would like to fix it if possible.
If you’re trying to display a 16:9-ratio 480p image, and your monitor doesn’t have an aspect ratio control, there really isn’t much you can do; anamorphic widescreen video is compressed into a 4:3 frame, which is then intended to be stretched horizontally by the display, which means you need a display that can do that.
Normally, I’d say that the OSSC’s lack of a framebuffer prevents it from doing these kinds of transformations, but I would think a horizontal stretch/reframe would be quite possible with its linebuffer.
But said the H adjustment on my monitor is already at about 80 and if I stretch it all the way to 100 it doesn’t quite reach.
I’ve seen suggestions that you can adjust the sampling rate but honestly I have no idea where to start.
You have a Crt monitor with DVI-D input or you’re using a HDMI to analog converter?
I don’t quite know if the active area has any practical meaning in the analog realm (I’m guessing it does not) but you can try changing h.active to 704. Likewise, increasing h.samplerate may not do anything either, because in analog it’s not the amount of samples originally that matters, rather the total time of the scanline, and this cannot be changed by the OSSC.
Yep, it’s running through a HDMI to VGA converter.
I’ll try editing those, I’m fairly sure I’ve messed about with them on here and had little success.
The annoying thing is I had an iiyama CRT that worked great and I could widen the image enough, although thinking about it the Dell CRT I have no is two inches bigger so the screen size is still probably larger than the iiyama.
Oh it’s a 4:3 CRT.
A Dell P1130 to be exact, but surely that should be able to take image from the OSSC? Or is it the case that despite the game being 4:3, the image the OSSC outputs is 16:9. and the CRT is just trying to accomodate that?
I would consider an additional processor if such a one would exist that would work easily between the OSSC and the monitor, however I’m guessing one that would work nicely for gaming would be really expensive?
Some games fill the screen perfectly. Odd.
If you’ve got the Xbox set to allow widescreen, it’ll output anamorphic widescreen in compatible games/menus, which is still a 4:3 frame (and the OSSC doesn’t read the aspect ratio metadata from the Xbox’s component output, so it has no idea it’s not 4:3), so that’ll give you that horizontal squishing in those instances.
Okay, I’m wondering now if it’s just due to the internal rendering resolution of the game. Halo and TimeSplitters both render perfectly to the edge of the screen. Mortal Kombat doesn’t. These are all NTSC copies running in 480p, so it should all be the same.
Thanks for thetip RE the DTV thing. Unfortunately there was no difference. Looking at it here next to me now, it really is just a half a centimeter away from filling the screen, so it’s more of an annoyance than a real issue. I wonder if there’s a way I can configure the monitor internally to stretch the image more.
I’m not so sure with the Xbox, but I know PS2 games often had overscan built in, because that was normal back then. It wouldn’t surprise me if there were some games on the Xbox that still did that; that was an awkward generation, as far as video output goes.
Yeah, PS2 it definitely is like that. I tried a game I think Mortal Kombat in 480i, and I get junk pixels in the top left (normal I believe) which are rendered right to the edge of the screen, even though the game image itself doesn’t stretch that far.
Definitely some odd behaviour though. Vertically stretching Halo enough to get the image just perfect, I then load another game and its waaaaay stretched vertically.
Just a quick update, I tried my Xbox directly into my TV, cutting out the OSSC completely. Seems that some games do indeed render differently, despite being the same output resolution. Not a problem in the end, but interesting to know.

A.R.T.evolution Artist Reception at Corporate Center
Brushfire, Acrylic on Canvas, Bonnie Kelso
Amid the hors d'oeuvres (served by) the assembled guests viewed a large and varied body of artwork, displayed in two buildings on three different floors.
Porcupine, Welded Steel, Barry Ferich
Carlos De Las Heras, a Madrid native and UNLV graduate, creates pictures of icons like Jesus, Mohammad, and even Death, dressed unconventionally and holding items not usually associated with their legend. His mixed media paintings are three-dimensional in some areas, heaped with compounds that contrast with the flat surface, creating alternative spaces.
Original Bookmarks, Carlos De Las Heras
ay: “O…wall sculptures satisfy an urge to make sense of my surroundings.” He is the owner and designer of Ology Design Studio and currently exhibits at The Venetian.
Bonnie Kelso’s paintings can vary in size from a jewelry box to a giant work incorporating four pieces. They can be abstract landscapes of color or depictions of stylized sea life. Some of them have visible strokes through thick paint layers, which Kelso says she creates with a plastic tool, eliciting another manner of composition to the piece.
The petite redhead’s work evokes a sensation in the viewer that nurtures a connection or relatability. Kelso works in acrylics and frequently creates painting in three or four pieces which comprise one larger work. Kelso, an alumna of Rhode Island School of Design, has had shows in Las Vegas and California. She donates a percentage of her profits to nature conservation programs
Bean, Acrylic on Canvas, by Bonnie Kelso
Barry Ferich and Windswept (aluminum)
Ferich incorporates the rebar (reinforced steel) used in political signs in some of his projects, forming them into an urban/medieval blend of armor and utility, as if they were his own legion of contemporary knights. You could say this metal army takes up the artistic fight against the mundane and the boring. He melds, he welds, he recycles, and he’ll show his art at his private local studio by appointment only.
Kelp Forest, Aluminum, Barry Ferich
Buddha with Stone in Bowl, William Haugse
He uses French Watercolor Paper (aka Archival 100% Rag) and Archival Photo Paper to capture his images, which invade the space between frames with bursts of color and organically (sometimes geometrically) delineated artscapes within the bigger picture. The more you gaze at a Haugse, the more you’ll discover. He’s had shows in California and Las Vegas.
New Floral #1, William Haugse
The evening’ “I’m short,” he’’s favorite earth tone is “monk’s robe orange.”25% of all of the evening’s sales were donated to The Odyssey Foundation, founded by BRAND founder and CEO, Virginia Martino. Prices ranged from $15 (bookmarks) to $5000 (large acrylic).

I wanted to create some more electronic music to listen to while at work. Electric Shake is a simple ambient beat to relax to. As always, uploaded to my ACIDplanet.com site for your's and mine enjoyment.
So I picked up an Android phone this weekend and said to myself, "Hey, can I get music on this thing?" The answer, obviously, is yes. But, if you remember, I use iTunes and iPods. I bravely went off looking for iTunes to Android sync utilities…

Fly Me To The Moon Soundtrack
I uploaded a slightly longer version of the "Fly Me To the Moon" song to ACIDplanet.com. It isn't much of a soundtrack since there is only one song. I created this version first but it was too long for the animation. The shorter version in the video was an edited remix of this one.

I added a new song to my ACID Planet site last Tuesday called Hate You Again. It is my submission to the Distorted Reality Contest. I really liked the vocals and tried to use them to drive the song. The "hate you again" stood out to me and I used it to frame the mix. Enjoy.

Well, I didn't add any new songs, but I did add a new image to my ACID Planet site. I used a photo I took when camping a few years back. I played around with filters and special effects in Microsoft Digital Image Suite to set the mood I was looking for. I think it came out pretty nicely.

This FM 2016 player profile of Pione Sisto shows a winger with great speed, skill and crossing ability. You know what you are going to get with this kid. In my test save he developed fantastic pace, agility, acceleration, flair, dribbling and crossing. Sisto will carry the ball and take on his man, he can deliver a great cross and create space for others. Not the highest potential player but worth a punt if you need an instant impact out wide and don't mind the £6 million asking price.
Do you have any player suggestions?
I'd just suggest searching through the wonderkids list by position its what we made it for. Depends on so many factors you'd be better off taking a look.

The rule of thumb about weight carrying capability is that a person in good shape can carry 20% of their body weight without discomfort or feeling overloaded. This proportion of weight can be carried "forever"; the carrier doesn't even really feel its presence. Let's call this our "Easy-carry-load". Since I weigh about 170 lb., my Easy-carry-load is 34 lb. Helen's Easy-carry-load is 22 lb. At loads of 60 and 40 lb. respectively, we are both overloaded. When we were young, we could tough it out. So we got sore in places, and were tired at the end of the day. So what? So as we got older, the soreness increased, and eventually we decided that it was no longer fun to carry so much.
If you move down in load to your Easy-carry-load, (20% of your body weight, as long as you are not overweight yourself!), you no longer need a backpack capable of carrying 60+ pounds. We gave up our big packs, and moved to smaller internal frame bags, that can double as a suitcase. Our bags still have the usual shoulder straps, and a padded waistband. However, a zippered flap can cover all this up, so on the airplane or in the hotel it looks just like a piece of soft luggage. On ours, a smaller daypack also zips onto the main bag, so you have a still smaller bag to use for day trips.

Our belly plays a major role in immune health, accounting for 50% of the body’s immune response, along with 25% of the body’s immune cells. Here is some more trivia for you: our gut contains 100 trillion bacteria, with over 400 species of bacteria! There are tenWhy is this information so important? Without optimal digestive function, our immunity decreases and our susceptibility to disease increases. Chatting about our colon may cause some to squirm, butmaintaining wellness and longevity. An unbalanced diet, stress, fatigue, aging and bacteria-contaminated food can wreak havoc on our precious body. My clients often complain about bloating and indigestion, despite eating like rock stars. While we are all biologically unique creatures, the following general tips might provide some relief and insight to help you and your beautiful belly live more peacefully.
Avoid sugar-free foods that contain sugar alcohols, also known as “polyols.” While s, you will also find them in multiple diet products, such as sugarless gum. Ssystem and eventually ferment. This results in bloating and cramping. Mannitol, xylitol, sorbitol and erythritol are some common polyols found in these products.
C), legumes, and beans are notorious for causing bloating. While they contain a treasure trove of nutrients, they can also cause cramping and discomfort. I suggest steaming the vegetables until they are fork-tender. Start by consuming ½ cup and notice how your body feels for the next few hours. You may also try pureeing these vegetables as a delicious soup, to facilitate digestion. If your belly is a war zone with beans start by adding 1-2 tablespoons to your meal. You may also puree them instead of eating them whole, and pay attention to any discomfort.
Limit sodium because it causes water retention and contributes to bloating. Use sea salt sparingly and get accustomed to cooking with herbs and spices to flavor foods. Remember that most commercially produced food products contain excess amounts of sodium. Look for “sodium-free” on labels and aim for no more than 5% sodium per serving on the nutrition facts label.
Our gut contains a beautiful garden of flora (bacteria) that acts like an ecosystem to maintain homeostasis. Probiotics (friendly bacteria) found in fermented foods like kefir, yogurt, miso, kombucha, sauerkraut and kimchi might help this garden flourish properly. Beware of sweetened probiotic drinks, cereals, juices and frozen yogurts that claim to contain these friendly bacteria.
Give your belly some tender loving care with a massage. Start by placing your hands on top of one another on the lower left hand side of your hipbone. Apply very little pressure and start with slow clockwise circular motions, across your lower abdomen as you move towards the right. Once you reach your right hipbone, continue the circular motion upwards until you reach your lower rib cage. Continue massaging across your upper abdominal area moving towards the left. Once you reach the left side move all the way down to your starting position by your left hipbone. Repeat this massage several times. It will help to move any trapped gas bubbles as well as stimulate a bowel movement.
Wishing you all Healthy Cravings & Blessings!

Psychologists shared seven tips for managing this "covanxiety."
"When you are in a stressed and anxious place, you are seeing everything through a lens of fear," Seppala, who works as the science direcd. "You are going to be more prone to messages that also have that lens."
"Everybody has an to draw the line," Ritmo said. "If someone is pushing you past that, then that's not being respectful, and you have to really look at: Is this a relationship that really works for you?Or is this somebody who's really looking out for themselves?"
"Life's unpredictable. Current events are unpredictable," she said. "The only thing you can take care of is the state of your own mind."

In the most frank assessment to date of the weeks ahead, health authorities have revealed they expect thousands of Queenslanders with COVID-19 will be admitted to hospitals across the state at the peak of the Omicron wave.
Chief Health Officer John Gerrard said plans were in place for a significant increase on the 819 COVID patients already in hospital on Tuesday.
The state reported a record 16 new deaths from COVID on Tuesday, with the pandemic toll almost doubling in two days. A total of 15,962 new infections were also reported.
While the number of people in hospital represented a “substantial increase” on Monday’s figure of 702, Dr Gerrard said the data often appeared inflated after the weekend due to lags in patients being discharged.
Of the 819 cases in hospital – an almost 55 per cent jump in one week – 50 were in intensive care, 18 of whom were on ventilators.
Some hospitals have already used tents outside to triage new patients in a safe waiting area to avoid congestion inside. Visitors have now also been limited to two per patient in wards, and one in emergency departments, with exceptions for end-of-life and maternity visits.
Alongside about 8000 public hospital beds that authorities believe could be made available to COVID patients if need be, the state has also begun tapping into the 5000 to 6000 beds in the private sector.
While fluctuating daily, awe earlier this month, with the ability to expand up to about 950.
“So across both the public and private sectors, we are comfortable, based on modelling, that we can see this peak through,n Tu had activated an agreement with the private hospital sector to make tens of thousands of staff available to hard-hit areas nationwide.
The announcement came just hours after Victoria’s hospital system called a statewide code brown – usually reserved for shorter-term emergencies such as train crashes or bushfires – to ease pressure and allow staff to be called back from leave.
A total of 1152 COVID-positive patients were hospitalised in that state on Tuesday, with forecasts suggesting the figure could more than double in weeks. About 4000 staff are furloughed due to infections or isolation rules.
In NSW, hospitalisation levels are expected to plateau this week and are tracking below best-case scenarios included in recent modelling that suggested a peak of 4700 hospital admissions, including 273 in ICUs.
Representative bodies for Queensland’s health workforce say staff are already “running on empty” with weeks still left before the wave peaks in the Gold Coast and Brisbane before moving on throughout the rest of the state.

Bamford had his chances: PardewhH
LONDON • Alan Pardew insists on-loan forward Patrick Bamford was given "every chance" to make an impact during his loan spell at Crystal Palace.
The 22-year-old has returned to Chelsea after failing to hit the target in nine appearances for the Eagles, and after Monday's goalless draw with Swansea, he said that his five months with Palace had been "terrible".
Bamford - who had only two League Cup starts at Palace - later retracted his comments, apologising and adding: "I couldn't have been at a nicer club. I'm just disappointed I couldn't do more for the team."
Pardew has accepted the apology and said: "Patrick made a slight error after the game. He was a little emotional. He has addressed that and I appreciate it.
Pardew, though, insists Bamford has a future in the Premier League.
" last season, step up," he said.
Palace stunned Chelsea with a 2-1 victory in August, but Pardew believes completing the double over the Blues is unlikely.
"Chelsea looked a bit more stable and assured against Manchester United, so they are favourites for this game," he said.
"Having said that, we are difficult to play at home atBamford had his chances: Pardew'. Print Edition | Subscribe

The French constructed Fort Rosalie on the Mississippi River in 1716 near the site of Natchez. Imagellustrated map of Fort Rosalie in French Natchez with seal, circa 1729. Image courtesy of the Natchez Historical Society, Scharff Collection, P-14.
Free black people occupied the lowest rung in Natchez’s free society, yet they often did invaluable work for the community. They served as warriors, farm hands, midwives, maids, traders, and as companions in a frontier town starved of white female settlers. Free blacks saw their fates twist in the wind as French, British, Spanish, and American customs and laws broadly influenced their legal standing in society. With the governance of Natchez changing hands at alarmingly frequent intervals, they had to brave these changes head on. As the imperial rulers of Natchez shifted, the liberty of free people of color remained on unstable footing. Free African Americans, however, are an important part of Mississippi’s history, and by studying their lives, it allows us to open a window into a world often ignored by contemporary Mississippians. Following the stories of free people of color leads to evidence of the struggle that was the settlement of Natchez, the violence it entailed, and the instability of personal fortunes in the Old Southwest. By tracing the personal fates of free black people in Natchez in relation to social upheaval and imperial changeorigin of Mississippi’s society. Unlike common perception—or misconception—Mississippi’s origins are not found in the mansions of antebellum plantations, but in the fight to survive colonial disorder. Free people of color were always a part of that story, and their frequent absence in Natchez’s printed history should be remedied.
In the aftermath of the rebellion, France essentially vacated the district, and there are no records of free Africans in the area until Natchez became part of British West Florida under the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The British tried unsuccessfully to establish plantations and to bring a larger slave population to Natchez. Although records are few, there were at least two free people of color present in Natchez between 1763 and 1779. One, a woman named Nelly Price, is of particular note. She challenged social norms and openly defied a leading English merchant. Although Price’s stand ultimately led to a physical altercation, she managed to escape further punishment and reappeared frequently in Spanish records.
Nelly Price was the first in a long line of black women in Natchez who fought for the right to be treated fairly in commerce and to be afforded human dignity. In a society that stacked the odds against them, these free black women sought ways to survive after bondage, often opting to attach their fate to that of other white settlers. Seeking protection and maybe companionship, these women faced tremendous challenges, but often remained triumphant. Price is a good example of that struggle. While she endured physical altercations with white male settlers in order to maintain her struggling enterprises under English government, her hard times changed in 1779 when Spain conquered Natchez. Almost immediately, Spanish laws allowed free people of color to use the courts to remedy their complaints. Price often made use of the courts and frequently received a favorable verdict. She was not the first black woman, however, to obtain justice in Natchez.
Jeanette used the Spanish courts in 1782 to free her son, Narcisse, from slavery. Narcisse registered his freedom under the watchful eye of his father, Charles de Gran Pre, the military commandant of Natchez at the time. Jeanette set a precedent for women by proving that Spanish courts would hear free blacks’ pleas and act in accordance with the law, something that English law rarely provided. Narcisse and his mother joined a growing population of free people of color in the small town, which rocketed from two in 1779 to well over 150 in the first census taken by the Americans in 1801.
Ultimately, Spain’s hold on Natchez proved tenuous. In 1795, the American republic successfully negotiated the deliverance of NatchezSan Lorenzo (also called Pickney’s Treaty), and American law followed. The fortunes of Amy Lewis, a supposedly free black woman, and her son fell victim to that change. After the death of Ashael Lewis, Amy’s master and her son’s father, Amy and her son were freeBut their freedom was quickly in peril, as white relatives of Ashael Lewis fought the will in court. Under Spanish rule, both mother and son remained free for the duration of the court case, and the odds were good to maintain their liberty. However, the case was filed in 1795 and dragged on through 1798, thereby crossing the intersection of the Natchez District’s territorial transition to the United States. Under the American territorial courts, Amy was re-enslaved, and her son, then a minor, was set free to fend for himself.
Free people of color played important roles on the frontier. The study of their stories provides a better understanding of the world on the banks of the Mississippi River in a much deeper way. Although their enslaved brothers and sisters often remain unknown, their stories hidden in the past, Natchez’s free blacks proved that liberty could be taken, not just bestowed, and they were public reminders of the inhuman system that was slavery. As they fought for their own rights and freedoms, they put the injustice of chattel slavery on public displayns.

As first-do. We found Wendy online and she has been brilliant. At our first meeting, I asked her if buying was better than renting and she laid out all the pros and cons!I was worried we wouldn't have enough saved, but she did everything for us, and held our hands all the way to bank approval and was able to use our strong rental payment history as proof of our ability to pay a mortgage. Wendy is trustworthy and approachable. She responded to all my queries quickly, even on weekends. My family now lives in a very comfortable house, all thanks to Wendy!

White Rock, located about 1 mile north of Hamilton, just off Highway 43, is noted for having been a prison camp during the Civil War.
The location is appropriately named, as it consists of a series of white rock bluffs that stretch out along the Buttahatchee.
White Rock is also noted as the site where the notorious Ham Carpenter was put to death. Carpenter, a southerner, became a feared terrorist during the Civil War. He not only was opposed to those of the Yankee team wishing to stay neutral, but to each and every one wanting to stay neutral on the general situation.
Carpenter became renowned as he covered the countryside burning people out of their homes, destroying their life supporting crops, and worst of all, killing many innocent people. He became a self-appointed truant officer, picking up men who did not want to fight and giving them only a short time to join his side. If they refused, they were killed.
Carpenter was known and feared all through Northwest Alabama. He was a mean man, brutally killing men, women and children as he and his bad of men crossed the country-side.
The terrorist finally struck one time too many when he attacked a Colonel’s wife and left her to die, along with a baby boy.
The Colonel, upon finding his wife and son, gathered the men of the community and set out to capture Carpenter.
In a short time, the enraged Colonel and his men captured Carpenter and his entire band of men. Carpenter was taken to the camp at White Rock where he was put to his death.

PEC practices what it preaches on solar energy
By Cassandra Brown, Staff Journalist, Fauquier Now
By investing in renewable energy, the PEC hopes to encourage homeowners, businesses and farms to consider that option through its “Solarize Piedmont” campaign.
“It’s largely a matter of doing what we are preaching,” PEC Senior Energy Policy Analyst Rob Marmet said. “We created more (energy) demand by increasing the size of our building and wanted to offset that.”
“Our purchase of electricity from Dominion is expected to be cut in half,” PEC President Chris Miller said.
More than 300 home and business owners showed interested and 11 installed solar panels during the first program.

Campaign promise: what to expect
Kyriakos Mitsotakis’s New Democracy party has focused its campaign on making Greece more business-friendly, hoping for prosperity to come from economic development. His main pledges are to cut taxes, specifically those in place to cover last year’s bailout, and to restructure Greece’s bureaucracy allowing for privatisation and foreign investment. He expects his government to close a painful bailout-era and lead the Greek population to a future of prosperity and growth.
In good news for the European Union, Kyriakos Mitsotakis is considered to be a firm supporter of the European bloc and believes that further integration is needed. In a time when populist governments have been flourishing increasing the risks to the stability of the Eurozone, the surge of a Euro-backing government is always welcome. But as Greece has been the country that has most heavily relied on Europe’s support over the last 10 years, one would assume that the country would appreciate the favourable terms it has received when borrowing more funds than it has been able to make in revenue through its lacklustre taxing system. The main concern is how the Eurozone’s leading economies feel about the need to continuously rescue those countries that get trapped in a recessionary cycle, and further integration is unlikely to be welcomed by them.. </s> Strong 3DSV2 authentication:

When Shelley Pinder thinks about her goals as an instructional design consultant, she has an unlikely inspiration.
It’s a fitting comparison. When Shelley works with a client to plan a new training course or e-learning experience, she has to manage a lot of moving parts – including the complex needs of the organization and the learner. Her aim is to eliminate the clutter and design a program that’s engaging and effective (and hopefully even sparks a little joy).
It would be easy to get overwhelmed by all the competing needs, objectives and possibilities she must consider. That’s why Span™ Workspace has become her new favorite tool for planning and organizing learning initiatives with clients.
A veteran of instructional design, Shelleyctors. Throughout the years her mission has remained steady – to make learning and development a valuable part of people’s work lives.
Recently she took a big leap into the world of consulting. As she began working with multiple clients, cutting through the noise to deeply understand an organization’s needs became increasingly important.
Then BalancePoint Partners introduced her to Span Workspace, an expansive cloud-based canvas for teams to map out ideas and visualize plans in real time.
As a consultant trying to balance client needs while building her own business, Shelley finds time is always in short supply. It wasn’t until she used Span Workspace that she realized just how much more efficient things could be.
Each new project usually begins with a client meeting to gather information – including needs assessments, sharing current training assets and clarifying goals and objectives. But then the dreaded document delivery spiral would start.
By keeping the process collaborative and halting the rally of the Word docs, Shelley reclaimed a huge amount of valuable time. Span Workspace is also dead simple to use, and clients can quickly get in there and collaborate without having to learn the software.
These efficiencies were just the beginning. She also found Span Workspace was a natural tool for one of her favorite things – telling a story.
The ability to pan horizontally through a canvas, rather than clicking through multiple PowerPoint® slides, made it easier for Shelley to craft a story of how a learning initiative would unfold.
Beyond the value of the large space, Shelley found that the flexible canvas was particularly well suited for her mindset when she designs courses.
Using Span Workspace means Shelley can place items anywhere and show how they’re connected. She can use images and sketches. And she can dig into ideas and think big – without getting caught up on formatting issues.
Using Span Workspace has also helped Shelley make instructional design more collaborative – something she values. She never wants to return to the days of waterfall project management.
Span Workspace is tailor-made for a new agile approach – one that involves the client every step of the way. Ideas are transparent and accessible, so any misalignment or change in strategy is caught immediately.
With every convert, Shelley is hoping her new tool can help other instructional designers spark collaboration and limit paperwork. Seems like a very Marie Kondo thing to do.

so earlier in the week I decided that I would take a day off and drive up to TN to see the wife who has missed me a lot in the last couple of weeks. I do not inform her of my plans, instead I try to arrange everything in secret. But, wouldn't you know it, Amanda went and figured it out anyways. Turns out I had told my sister about driving up there this weekend but failed to inform her that it was a secret so she told Amanda. Finally after a few moments of being questioning by my wife I broke down and informed her that I am going to be there for the weekend to visit and take another car load of stuff to FL. I will have to say though that after hearing me tell her that she would see me this weekend her attitude did a complete 180 and she has been talking about it ever since then.
Moral of the story is, if you are going to try to surprise Amanda you better have all your basis covered.

Hello, hello, mic check, one, two. Is this thing on? Does this still work? Check. Check.
Bless me folks, for I have been lazy. It’s been nearly 1,035 since my last baseball blog post. Since that last time, I’ve only been to a handful of minor league and indy games, and while I have taken pictures and tweeted out, I haven’t done an official post (wrestling posts not withstanding).
Not much has changed since my first visit in 2015. But in this case, that’s a good thing! It’s still a baseball museum doubling as a stadium. It still has a great pre game vibe in their food court. And yes, they still have the Crazy Hot Dog Vendor! Everything that I was looking forward to. Just what was needed to jump start the blog again.
Even the seats are old timey. Yep, reserved seats, but no cup holders. I didn’t mind, the fans and the view were great!
There are plenty of pre game and in game eat and drink options! When you enter the ballpark, you move along the first base side along a few vendors, then it opens up to a wide courtyard with more options and a bandstand. In my first visit, there was a live band playing, not sure if I missed it but nothing going when I arrived. Still, plenty of food and drink options for the game!
Instead of doing something that would require Tommy John surgery, I checked out all the food and drink options. Pretty amazing stuff! I have to say that the Churger sounded pretty good, but it sounds like enough to feed a small refuge family!
In the end, I went with the basic hot dog and some delicious crabby fries!
FirstEnergy really is a family friendly park. Unlike a couple of parks I’ve been to, I didn’t witness any heckling of the other team, which is a big plus in my book. Folks are there to see a game, take in the sights, maybe swim in the pool, and meet the famous Crazy Hot Dog Vendor!
Pups in the park NEVER gets old!
They do have a pool in right field and everyone was having a great time! Although I didn’t see any homeruns hit the splash zone.
Love it when you see someone wearing the shirt of your favorite ballplayer at the park!
The obligatory outfield selfie.
Raise your kids right, take them to the ballpark!
I was able to get a few good snaps during the game. The Phils were hosting the Rumble Ponies, and the Phils were wearing their special Hot Dog jerseys. The visitors put up a 6 spot in the second inning, but couldn’t get the shut down inning as Reading scored 1 in the bottom of the frame. Top of the third, Binghamton scores again to make it 7-1, but Reading scored 2 in the third and 2 in the fourth to close the gap to 7-5. In the sixth, the Ponies struck again for 2 more, but Reading rallied for another, making it 9-6.
In the bottom of the ninth, Rumble Ponies RF makes a great throw to save a run.
Reading rallied for one run in the ninth, with the entire bullpen looking on. But that’s all they could come up with as Binghamton wins 9-7.
Although this was my second trip to Reading, it felt like visiting an old friend. This is a great venue to see a game, and close enough to the DC area that it’s definetely worth the drive! Oh, and the swag is pretty sweet too!

The importance of grandmothers….
These days, with increasing economic pressures adding to the strain on young families and escalating divorce rates, grandmothers often As a society, we are indebted to these strong, principled women, whose deep-rooted sense ir worldview. These are women who have already raised their own children and finally have ths, to do as they please; but, rather than spend their remaining years pursuing hobbies or taking cruises - they find the greatest satisfaction in spending time with their grandchildren.
Such is their complicity that my daughter quite often tells her grandmother about the important events in her life before she tells me. At times, this has caused me to feel sidelined and overlooked, but Ieasier to confide to a grandmother than to a mother. Furthermore, grandmothers are usually better listeners and have the wisdom to know how to advise without appearing to interfere. They are also able to maintain a degree of emotional detachment from their grandchildren and, unlike mothers, do not hold themselves responsible for their every mistake!
! Rag!). At the time, I did not feel patronised or ridiculed for my childish dreams of escape – on the contrary, my grandmother always lent a sympathetic ear to my problems; however, she never failed in her duty to remind me that, despite my parents many imperfections, their love for me was unquestionable. She also never failed to reassure me that – if things got tough – I could always seek refuge at ‘grandma’s house’.
For my daughter, the reality of this statement is sadly poignant. She has a wide network of relatives on her father’s side that she has never met – including her paternal grandparents. In fact, she was planning to travel to Colombia next year to visit them but just last weekend, her sister wrote to say that their grandmother had died. In view of the fact that she had never even spoken to her father’s mother, the depth of her grief took my daughter by surprise. However, it seems to me that the reason she feels this loss so deeply is because she knows how precious and irreplaceable a grandmother can be. She is mourning the relationship she might have had with her Colombia grandmother, if only she been given the chance to meet her.

Abstract: Nucleophosmin (NPM/B23, NPM1) is an important nucleolar phosphoprotein with pleiotropic functions involving in a board range of cellular regulation and cell cycle regulation. Our previous results have shown that NPM/B23 plays an important role in resistance to UV-induced cell death by up-regulating PCNA through YY1 and thereby enhancing nucleotide excision repair (NER) activity (Weng and Yung, 2005; Wu and Yung, 200 unclear. Here we show that NPM/B23 drives PCNA promoter activity depending on its acetylation state. NPM/B23 cooperates with the transcription factor YY1 at an upstream YY1 binding site and regulates the PCNA promoter. The treatment by UV irradiation increased expression level and acetylation state of NPM/B23, and this alteration was accompanied by an increase in PCNA. Additionally, the p300 was bound to PCNA promoter and enhanced the recruitment of NPM/B23 and YY1 to promoter upon UV irradiation. p300 is a transcriptionrefore, the PCNA promoter activity in p300 knockdown condition and in NPM/B23 deacetylation-mimicking mutants was examined as compared to wild-type. At 48 h after the addition of p300 shRNA, PCNA promoter activity was significantly decreased (P<0.05). NPM/B23 deacetylation-mimicking mutants which defects in p300 HAT activity, the PCNA promoter activity and subsequently, DNA repair capacity was decreased after UV treatment. These results demonstrate that p300 is importantly participated in PCNA up-regulation by triggering NPM/B23 acetylation. Taken together, we anticipate our findings may be a starting point for anti-cancer treatment. A combination therapy with NPM/B23 antisense and HAT inhibitor to impair the expression level and the acetylation state of NPM/B23ng recurrence and drug resistance.

In a separate Twitter post, Femi Adesina also slammed those he referred to as armchair critics of the President who "use their mouths to divide the country."
"His inability to manage diversity effectively is one of the issues I have with him. I am not the first person to disagree with his policies; his wife also did, so these guys should not sermonise when Nigerians are suffering."
"I have made an offer for them to choose the venue and time to sit down and talk about Nigeria. The job of the spokesman is to publicize Federal Government policies and clarification. These are the only spokesmen that have involved in all types of writing, never talking to the issue. They are used to just talking rather than clarifying policies. They just second-guess the President while they do the job in an appalling way."

Germany Finally Starts to Turn from Russian Gas
There was no alternative for Germany to buying gas from Vladimir Putin, until there was. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has reminded policymakers in Berlin that emergency action in the energy sector is possible./BP
In September 2018 then German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said, “there is no German dependence on Russia, certainly not in energy questions.” Yet by March 2022forced to admit: “The bitter news is: We still need Russian gas … it takes more than three weeks to undo the strategic mistakes of previous decades.”
Well, for a start, Maas was misleading his audience. Germany does depend on Russian gas: 55 percent of the gas consumed in the country comes from Russia, and 25 percent of Germany’s final energy comes from gas. In the short-term it would be physically impossible to replace all that Russian gas with alternative supplies, and therefore German Chancellor Olaf Scholz opposes an energy embargo that he says would “plunge our country and all of Europe into a recession.” Germany, Scholz says, must be able to maintain the sanctions it imposes, which “must not hit the European countries harder than the Russian leadership.”
Some European Union member states and some German economists make a good case that an embargo would be worth the cost, arguing that Russia’s energy sales are helping Putin soften the blow of other sanctions. The debate is tricky: It is far from clear that an embargo (or punitive tariffs) would get Russia to halt its invasion of Ukraine. It is clear that losing Russian gas would damage the German economy and be incredibly costly and difficult for the German government to manage. This is dependence, or perhaps co-dependence, since Russia has so far been content to continue selling a vital resource to those on the other side of a European war, although Putin’s March 23 demand to be paid in rubles for gas deliveries has made an interruption of trade more likely.
Pipelines for Gas
Since the arrival of those first Soviet gas deliveries in 1973, imports from the USSR and then Russia have increased steadily. Russians and Europeans built new pipelines to bypass Ukraine, an important goal of the . In 2005hröder signed an agreement to build the Nord Stream 1 to Germany. For Schröder, this was the start of a lucrative friendship with the Russian dictator. Schröder’s successor Angela Merkel attended the opening ceremony for Nord Stream 1 in 2011 and supported its controversial sister pipeline throughout her time in office, describing it for years as a “purely private enterprise.”
Over recent decades, gas—and Russian gas—have become more important to the German economy. WhenBundestag for “an embargo on everything that finances this war”—the EU has spent over €20 bi—German leaders were not in a position to grant his request. This is dependence.
The main reasons Germany has bought gas from Putin’s Russia are that it is relatively close, and its gas is relatively cheap. Canada felt able to ban Russian oil imports on February 28 because it is far away and possesses huge hydrocarbon reserves. Germany, on the other hand, does not have much gas on its own territory, and is already importing about as much as it can from allies and partners like Norway and the Netherlands. EU member states even closer to Russia, like Bulgaria, Finland, and Latvia, are even more dependent on Russian imports despite security concerns.
Eight Lost Years
The last time Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine, in 2014, it appeared that Germany might make a serious effort to give up Russian gas, which at that time made up 38 percent of domestic consumption. Merkel acknowledged Europe’s “dependence” on Russian oil and gas, saying Germany would take a “fresh look at its whole energy policy.” In the face of German-backed EU sanctions and political pressure, the German chemical giant BASF halted its plans to trade Germany’s largest gas storage facility in exchange for shares of gas fields in Russia.
Never mind that the pipeline was already completed—the European energy companies that financed it had to simply write down billion dollar loans for the sake of national security. The CDU, Merkel’s party, now wants to shut down Nord Stream 1. The FDP, a party of fiscal hawks, are backing expensive moves to subsidize energy efficient improvements in homes and speed up the switch to 100 percent renewable electricity, with party leader Finance Minister Christian Lindner dubbing renewables “freedom energy.”
The Feebleness of “Alternativlos”
One of Merkel’s characteristic words was “alternativlos,” literally “alternative-less.” She used it most to describe Germany’s policy during the euro crisis of the early 2010s. Sigmar Gabriel, who served as her economy minister at the time of the Crimea annexation and later as foreign minister, used a variation of the term in 2014 to claim there were “no reasonable alternatives” to importing gas from Russiat and an associate .

hoto of the week for Feb 28, 2014
To close out the last week of February (thank baby Jesus), we chose this gorgeous shot by @chicagomatt. Taken from Northery Island, this photo shows a view of our lovely skyline we don't often get to see. In the foreground is one of three sculptures by Chicago artist Dessa Kirk called Daphne Garden, made from old car parts.

for the great majority. The 9,732 survivors were repatriated. But what that 42 percent had lived through during the war was only the beginning of their trials.
Physically, more former POWs suffer from tuberculosis and cirrhosis of the liver than their peers who were not prisoners. They have a higher than normal incidence of cancer and heart problems. Their general state of health is average at best. They suffer from a laundry list of psychological difficulties. Studies of "prisoner of war syndrome" have shown it to be progressive and unpredictable. The long-term effects of starvation, malnutrition, maltreatment, disease, and mental stress can manifest themselves at any time. It is an unfortunate state of affairs that these men and women, who gave so much at the most pivotal point of the twentieth century, have had to live constantly with the consequences of their sacrifices.
As soon as Myers arrived back on American soil, he phoned his family from the naval base in Oakland, California, to let them know he was on his way home. A train took him from Oakland to Chicago, and another took him from there to Louisville. Since all POWs were automatically given a one rank promotion, Myers arrived home as a Pharmacist's Mate First Class. In early November, he was honored along with other veterans in an Armistice Day parade in Louisville, and then reported to the naval hospital in Memphis for more examinations.
The hospital found him "mentally and physically qualified to perform all the duties of his rate" and recommended that "he be returned to full duty." He continued the prescribed rehabilitation and on March 13, 1946, was honorably separated from the Navy. Myers was awarAmerican Campaign Ribbon. He was presented with three bronze stars for "meritorious service as a Hospital Corpsman" during the hell ship ordeal. James Forrestal, Secretary of the Navy, made this commendation on behalf of President Truman on January 18, 1947:
> Myers made every effort possibles and sustain their morale, despite his own intense suffering. Stouthearted and courageous throughout this perilous voyage, Myers by his outstanding fortitude and self-sacrificing devotion to his fellow men, served as an inspiration to all prisoners on boardHis military chapter closed, Myers began rebuilding his personal life. As happened to many of the POWs, the girl he had left behind feared him dead, and married someone else. Myers met another woman, married her soon after, and their family grew to include seven children. His interest in medicine had been piqued during the war. He became a chiropractor and built a practice in the Louisville area.
Myers' spirit was willing, but like so many former POWs, his body had been weakened by years in Japanese prison camps. He developed bronchial difficulties one damp Kentucky winter, and the problem grew worse each year. Finally, in 1959, he packed up his family and moved to the sunshine and dry air of Phoenix, Arizona.
Although surrounded by his own family as well as those of his brothers Ken and Orville, Myers' physical problems continued. He suffered one heart attack and then two more, finally developing lung cancer. On September 12, 1973, Estel Myers died after suffering his fourth heart attack. He was fifty-three years old.
Friends and family alike marveled that despite the horrors he had experienced, he never complained about his lot in life. They remembered him having a ready smile, always being willing to help out a fellow human being. Myers wasn't a hero or a celebrity; he was more than that. He was a good man, one of the thousands who, between 1941 and 1945, made unfathomable personal sacrifices for a good cause.
After Myers' death, a letter surfaced that he had written to his children several months earlier. In it he listed what he felt would help them live happy and successful lives—things undoubtedly learned from his own life's experiences:
> _Believe with all your heart in God, country and family. Be truthful. Be loving, patient ntry; be papa_.

"If she doesn't get all of her work done while I'm practicing," says Asia, "she sometimes stays up until 2 a.m., after we get back to Sierra Vista."
"We had no choice but to start driving to Tucson," says Holly. "I asked Asia, 'How serious are you about soccer?Are you willing to drive to Tucson three days a week and get home about midnight?'"
There is more to this than soccer and a flawless GPA. Asia is also the student manager of the Buena High School football team; she is secretary of the school's National Honor Society; she is involved in the Robotics club and the Key club. She also goes to weight-training classes twice a week."

"She's the complete package; an all-around good kid."

So, this was my attempt at doing some kind of justice to Royal Bakery’s gorgeous golf cake! Hers had an additional tier below of course (that honestly, I was kind of bummed I didn’t get to do!) but my folks just didn’t need quite that much cake, so I left off the bottom of her design. Lemon poundaccents. The grass is buttercream, colored piping gel water hazard and crushed graham cracker sand trap. I loved making the fondant trees via Royal Bakery’s method – worked like a charm! :)

i just recently learned about this guy and its very sad that two bears had to die because of him. i really think he would have not wanted that to happen. i do understand why they did it though. when i watched his movie last night, there were two parts that disturbed me, i was fore warned about the bear poop scene so it didnt bother me as much as it did when he got upset someone had wrote a message to him on a piece of log. that person was honestly just being friendly and he was seeing as a sign that someone was out to hurt him. i was like really? with him being surrounded by bears and he was only worried about people finding him. seriously? the other part that disturbed me was when the ex gf jewel got his watch from the guy and she put it on like it was nothing. i dont know why it bothered me but it did. i felt her emotions about getting the watch were a little weird, that watch was attached to an arm that was once living. i guess its the knowing how the watch was found that bothered me. can you imagine just looking for what happened and stumbling upon just a hand with a watch on it? omg i would flip. i wonder if the people who found them need counseling after seeing such a horrible scene like that.
At least they didn't pull it out of the poop. Doubt you could ever get the band clean.
It would be a great Timex commercial.
Reb, which movie is this? I thought I had seen it but don't remember those parts...
I've watched the movie, the GM diaries, and read every available book about Treadwell. A good guy but a seriously depressed and confused individual who based his importance in life as how close he could get to those bears.
If this guy could have conquered his inner demons he may not have been killed, and maybe went on to better things for himself and the animals. But this guy was out there, he really thought that if a bear ate him, he'd be part of that world forever. Really what he became was a benchmark of how not to behave around wild animals. Even one of his favorite bears (Letterman) was killed because of his death.
I also thought this was a reference to Grizzly Man but I do not remember a scene where the ex gets his watch in that particular movie. There is a very funny parody on youtube of Grizzly Man where an ex gets his belongings including a cd and a cooler which still has cold drinks in it! The Herzog parody and "Age of Aquarius" dance montage at the end make it one of the funniest parodies I've ever seen.
I had already seen "Grizzly Man Diaries" which I thought was "the movie" It's not. Watch "Grizzly Man" for the ex getting the watch, bear crap scenes & more craziness from TT.
The end when TT & Amy is actually filmed with the bear they think killed them? Bizarre.
Omg. I laughed my arse off! Lol @ the narrator.
L - the narrator (Herzog) has a lot of stuff out there on TT. He's hilarious. I loved the Aquarius montage as well.
read a elk hunter and his sons were charged by a grizzly in yellowstone recently.article said they sprayed it twice before he shot it.
about the performance i expected out of "bear repellent".
Thanks Geeky! This story still fascinates me.
At least Grizzly Adams didn't get killed.
I prefer Grizzly Adams over Grizzly Treadwell.
I heard at one point that she had already destroyed the tape.
booooo... doesn't this person realize how much WE wanna hear it? selfish much?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SJiOZdAWco hmmm apparently she did destroy it.

I think I heard that she did not destroy the tape, instead she has it stored in a safety deposit box.
That audio has too many voices/people. You hear a distant male voice, a distant female voice and a person very obviously blowing into the mic, and that is the person closest to the mic that's picking up the audio.
From what I've gathered, the audio should either have come from the remote mic Tim was wearing {thus he would be the dominant audio level on the recording} or from the camera, which was located in the camera bag at the campsite and likely would have been protected from the the gale-force winds we're supposedly hearing.
I also note a distant lack of real "nature sounds" that you'd expect to hear. No leaves blowing, no branches creaking, nothing rustling on the ground, no splat of rain on dried leaves, no crickets or night birds or frogs, etc.
I can't think of any situation where {like at 37-38seconds} where the "wind" or "air" would stop, "gasp" and then continue. Or stop, catch its breath and continue {like 48-49s, 57-58s, 1:10-1:13, 1:24}, or pant/wheeze {1:05, 1:16, 1:19, 1:32, 1:38, 1:40}.
There's also no "short conversation" between the first {where Amy screams to "play dead"} and second attack {where Amy screams to "fight back"} and the reported audio duration should be just about 6 minutes.
Looks like someone else already took it to task, too.

If they could have tossed a 12 pack of Charmin TP at the bear they would still be alive.
I seem to recall hearing a portion of this audio on a television special once. Isn't there a snippet of it available?
Of him being eaten? No.
m's soundtrack) and then urges Palovak to destroy it. In the follow-up mini-series, The Grizzly Man Diaries, Palovak admits she still owns the tape but has not listened to its contents and says she hopes she never does. Herzog has stated that Palovak later "separated herself from the tape" by putting it in a bank vault.
When Herzog is listening to the recording on headphones, I could hear a little background noise which could have been coming from the tape. This might be the snippet you are thinking of.
Yes, Pepper, you are correct based on what Wikipedia reports.

It will not be anything special. Just the usual being eaten by a bear vocalization.
Yes. Let me give you a sample................ " AAAAAAACCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK !!!!! " You're welcome.
His last scream was ( damn, maybe I was wrong) ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
All kidding aside, thanks for the link. Interesting read.
Heard on the tape: Just take the picnic basket and go!
I love watching Grizzly Man, it is so funny!
My husband loves the part where he tells off the park service and acts all butch and everything. It completely cracks him up.
When the news of Steve's death broke, I found out that there were quite a few death hags working with me......We LOLed all day long about Steve dying the way he did and of course Treadwell was brought up........We laughed all damn week @ both of them......By the way I was working @ A. G. Edwards and sons, inc......A financial institution for Christ Sakes.....

My favorite bit is when he goes nuts over the poop.
Help an aging brain out here. Who was the guy who did the age of Aquarius montage based on Timmy Treadwell. The hilarious one of this guy dressed up in phoney bear suits running through a park? Pleeeeze?
I had not seen that vid. That's funny.

A friend of mine who knows that I used to live in Alaska and miss it sometimes sent me this link. You can watch all sorts of animals, but I love the bears the most. I don't think we would have been able to witness Tim's demise, but its pretty awesome to see these bears. Y'all should check it out.
I never actually watched the documentary but my best friend has and she said "This guy was so annoying, about halfway through I was thinking, when's the bear gonna hurry up and eat this guy?"
Umm under videos you may like on U tube is the last moments of Timothy Treadwell. Sound only of course. Oh yes I had to listen. After reading above posts I think it is fake. I hope it is fake. Yikes.
Thanks cindyt. Wow.
