en | N/A | N/A | The present thesis is concerned with the founding process of Deutschlandradio in the context of German reunification. It was established as a merger of the three existing radio stations Deutschlandfunk and RIAS (Western Germany) as well as Deutschlandsender Kultur (East Germany) in 1994. Together with its forerunners, Deutschlandradio was an intermediate institution that bridged the two societies before, during and after the unification. Due to the many interest groups involved, it took four years to negotiate the structure of the new radio station. Those years were marked by the same severe conflicts and power asymmetries that were prevalent in the unification process. Therefore, I argue that the founding procedure of Deutschlandradio was a “unification on a small scale”.
While there are many studies that address large-scale societal processes after 1989, there are only few studies that focus on how people made unification work in daily life, and how they made sense of the changes. Hence, the present thesis studies the merging process on three levels: First, using Bourdieu’s concept of the forms of capital, it analyses the institution-building process on a structural level. Secondly, taking up an ethnographic approach, the thesis analyses the experiences people made during that time. Thirdly, it qualitatively examines the broadcasts of RIAS, DS Kultur und DLF to show how the “unification on a large scale” was framed in East and West German media outlets.
The Deutschlandradio and its forerunners are considered to be platforms that mediated the societal, political and medial transformation. By addressing the rapid changes that took place in East Germany, journalist negotiated German-German realities and identities. This thesis shows how unified Germany was constructed and articulated in the founding process of an all-German media institution, and how individuals reinforced, subverted or contested these constructions, thus engaging with what it meant to be German. |

username_0: following code snipper works using 'node' command, but not works using 'sjs' commanda `read()` function similar to Bash's [read](http://linuxcommand.org/lc3_man_pages/readh.html). If anyone can open a PR, I'll gladly reviewad from stdin synchronously. I was expecting that `cat` called without filepaths would do it. Since I haven't found a way to do it with `shelljs` I have used [a stackoverflow snippet](http://stackoverflow.com/a/16048083/1815446) showing a cross-platform way of reading stdin synchronously. Would you be interested in a PR for making `cat` reading from stdin when called withoutthing we'd be interested in :+1:
<issue_comment>username_1: Please ping this thread if you run into any issues_2: pointing that out.
If you can implement it to work with `-` as a file name, I'll try to modify the the internal function for reading from the left-hand-side of a pipe to also check standard input if it's not in a pipe.
(Sorry to interject)...
Here's the problem with that: `cat -` is async, it doesn't return until you tell it to... I'm not sure how that would integrate with shelljs.
<issue_comment>username_1: How is cat async? It blocks while it reads input, and returns when it receives EOF.
<issue_comment>username_3: ---> Blah Blah Blah
---> ^C # Now this doesn't work, it kills node instead.
Done # This never happenssending EOF is to use `^D` instead. If we really wanted, we could write a signal handler for `^C`, but I'd prefer to hold off, especially since this is a less-common use-case. We can implement that if there are feature requests down the road.
<issue_comment>username_3: Ok, That works for me.
Thanks! Ari </s> <issue_start><issue_comment>Title: All vocabs should have summary.txt and ARTICLE:
username_0: It would be great if all vocabs had a summary.txt and a basic "what is this" help article.
<issue_comment>username_0: Or a single metadata.txt for each vocab. Or make metadata a top level tag.
<issue_comment>username_1: to use one `metadata.txt` sounds like a good idea, because new sections can be added later without needing new files
fields could be on a line ending with a colon, and their data could be terminated by blank lines
Interfaces for IPC
bitmap.spr
could also just use the INI parser for that, but INI isn't really suited for multiple-value items
<issue_comment>username_1: yaml seems like overkill to me, but maybe that's an even better idea ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
<issue_comment>username_2: Let's not do YAML please. I'm not a YAML hater, but it's incredible overkill for what we need here.
<issue_comment>username_3: https://eno-lang.org
<issue_comment>username_1: the previous solution was a series of named text files, so any sort of 'language' more complicated than a flat INI-like file is going to be too slow and clunky for the application (thousands of these files are read every second)
we'd also separately need an entire eno parser vocab, which sounds cool but overkill for this
<issue_comment>username_4: The file could be in Factor itself.
summary"Interfaces for IPC"
authors{
"networking"
platforms{ unix }
resources{
<issue_comment>username_0: Is that Factor?!
<issue_comment>username_4: Sure why not?
<issue_comment>username_0: Mostly since I think types (strings or string arrays) are different than their assigned names (summary, tags, etc).
But also because I’m just having fun about 0.99.
<issue_comment>username_1: I had assumed the reason for not making the metadata files Factor source from the start (or putting the information in `-docs` files) was to improve performance and avoid calling the Factor parser for every disk vocab.
If there's no historical or technical reason to avoid writing the metadata in Factor then that seems the obvious answer?
<issue_comment>username_0: Current parser can’t separate a parsing pass that extracts certain top level forms |

en | N/A | N/A | I've known the esteemed Mr. Tubb for years on-line. Many of you will know him better as bronsont. He's the best of eggs.
On most Fridays you can hear him calling out his beloved lobster bisque for lunch, causing all within earshot jealousy we're not with him during this particular repast. We all drool a bit, grumble a lot and then go about our business ... albeit a bit sadder.
Regarding a bio, Mr. Tubb declined, instead stating only this about his post below: "Just tell 'em it was a dare & they should learn from this to never make a dare."
I proposed a posting on the Bonus Depreciation available to taxpayers in tax year 2011. Now I ask you, who in their right mind would allow such to be included in their pride and joy of a Blog? The answer to that is simple … Rupe!
b. you ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS have a “deemed sale” of the property involved and need to account for it being sold on the tax return. Either by schedule D or form 4797 whatever is appropriate for the type of property. Remember the term “deemed sale” as it is important.
E. Any amounts not excluded must then be included in income on line #21 Other Income and added to your total income.
2. Taxpayer gets a 1099-C or combination of 1099-A and 1099-C for their personal residence.
I. If the home was not repossessed but the bank simply reduced the amount that the taxpayer owed to them to get the payments down.
B. You need to account for either a 1099A or a 1099 C to show the sale. Usually this is done on a schedule D if there is a profit then you can add a line showing a section 121 exclusion (assuming they qualify). The section 121 exclusion is the $250,000 if single, or $500,000 if married filing jointly of profit on the sale of a primary residence which is tax free if the house has been owned by the taxpayer and used as a primary residence for at least 2 years of the 5 years before the sale. If you have a loss on the sale, it is a non-deductible personal loss. You cannot assume the IRS knows this is a personal home that is not taxable you must account for the sale somewhere on the return.
a. Someone buys a home for 200,000 and has a 150,000 mortgage on it. That is all QMD.
c. When their Mortgage balance is 125,000 they hit the lottery and pay off the mortgage. Several years later their finances have eroded and they need cash so they refinance the home for 200,000. NONE of this amount is QMD.
3. Special case - BUT they have non QMD debt that was forgiven.
You would complete the return using the methods already outlined in #2 and/or #4.
no difference in the end result. And…yes you would need a “Federal Statement” to explain the 1099C disposition and tell how you entered it as income on the Sch E.
- at the beginning of the next tax year.
Note: Just because you are insolvent does NOT mean that ALL of the cancellation of debt is forgiven as taxable income.
(150,000-95,000) 55,000 of taxable cancellation of debt income.
Line 18c is the lower of line 18a or 18b assuming you were insolvent.
Sorry, Bronson, but Rupe's post beat yours for sheer unreadability. I actually found yours to be interesting and I even understood most of it. But then, my tax law professor in law school was a real IRS buff (the kind who reads tax law changes with his breakfast) and he made DAMN SURE we understood it all. Great post!
Oh... and your post needs more lobster bisque. Just sayin'.
You had me at happenstance. Okay, and moonshine.
Good stuff, Mr. Tubb.
I have to agree with mehitabel on this one, bronsont, but you have to be the second bestest comment I've ever seen.
This reminded me of a Scientific American article I read once for lack of other available material. [Hubby had left the magazine within reach of the WC, and I was desperate.] I understood every sentence of the first paragraph, comprehended most of the second paragraph, could pronounce most of the words in the third paragraph, understood the dictionary definition of some words in the fourth paragraph, then suddenly realized the author was just warming up.
Best advertisement for hiring someone to do your taxes I have ever seen. Have a prosperous tax season!
Luckily for me, I only have to deal with Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs.
I think UK's revenue and customs are more generous on loans and re-mortgage.

en | N/A | N/A | Some one Put My personal Photos To make A fake Tinder Membership, And it Can happen For your requirements - Words Liive
September 17, 2022|In texas review|8 Minutes
I understand it’s hard locate some one considering a good pictures, but Tinder did not promote just one love that it phony account
That afternoon We heard the new common voice out of a facebook content from my laptop thus i looked at observe a good message claiming “Kelly have you been into Questionnaire?”. Quickly I became baffled, considering that I got went returning to Colorado and you will my pals know in which I was. We immediately responded of 100 free dating sites in Texas the saying no and you will inquiring as to why my friend got asked me personally you to definitely. Exactly what the guy replied straight back which have, We never ever noticed future.
Turns out when you are swiping to Tinder eventually among my loved ones receive a profile using my images. I quickly asked my pal to help you swipe best so we you may get more info, but seem to he swiped kept which meant you to people communication ranging from one pal and you may fake myself could be gone forever.
Regardless if We understood it actually was an extended take to since every We had is actually a graphic, I figured it absolutely was worth an attempt correct? Tinder should at least reasonably worry about the safety away from it’s pages incase some one playing with other’s identities? Let’s be honest right here, it is an online dating site usually are not knows just what someone having fun with a phony relationship membership is using they to own. I thought they’ve been probably by using the account for junk e-mail, however it is particular tough to get a hold of when you’re on the 8,500 far-away.
“Hello Tinder Assistance! I’m Kelly — and i accept that people is using my personal photographs for a good fake Tinder account. I currently have a beneficial Tinder account connected with my personal fb, yet not has just my good friend discovered various other membership using one out-of my personal photo. Unfortunately for my situation he swiped kept, leaving myself zero genuine way to song her or him. The things i do know for sure is because they are utilizing new photo You will find affixed contained in this email address, to begin with out of this Url: (website link might have been got rid of) Brand new fake myself is within Quarterly report, Australia (in which I before stayed), not We now live in Colorado.
I don’t know everything you males can really do just like the all of the You will find is actually an image and you can a place, but any advice you can offer are considerably preferred. As you can imagine it’s rather troubling knowing anyone is utilizing your images to the a matchmaking software having who knows exactly what need in a country which i no further are now living in! Many thanks for any guidance or recommendations you could potentially provide me personally.”
“Beloved Kelly, Per Tinder reputation is associated with a special Myspace account. When someone is impersonating your, excite contact Facebook’s help center to file a research. Best wishes, –“
Perception more a small creeped away I thought i’d email Tinder to see if they may render any help
I tried to check out Myspace in order to statement, however you desire a real Myspace web page to report. There is not really a means to connect good Tinder account so you can Facebook, making this have a look essentially inactive. Positively I am unable to become very first person for it getting took place in order to, positively they need to possess some variety of policy for phony membership unlike a contact basically stating “not our disease”. Once more I want to concern just what one is having fun with an excellent fake relationships make up? So far an educated I can extremely expect is spamming anyone rather than something way more nefarious. I understand that once I set a photo on the web it is totally free games, however, knowing there can be anybody with my photographs and possibly pretending in order to be me inside a country We not inhabit was quite creepy. Perform I’m sure this person, is it a pal from a buddy or particular random who taken place to track down myself? What’s the area regarding an artificial Tinder membership anyways?
Which sense have kept me personally with so many inquiries too just like the an indication how weird the internet will get. Before I tried so you’re able to rally my friends to see if they could find “me” and check out and have a conversation together with her. Not one from my friends during the Questionnaire told you they actually receive “me” therefore at best I could pledge the latest membership provides shut down. With the impressive shortage of any care and attention off Tinder no answer to sealed it upon Facebook, I might never truly learn who this person was otherwise exactly what they might be using it to have. However, hey perhaps if i ever go back to Sydney I’ll has many dates in-line for me, best?
To get reasonable, this new images they took cannot give away excessively. Anyone could easily pretend that the try them provided you simply can’t come across my complete face. In some way that renders the challenge somewhat weirder. Did they favor so it image especially in order that if they were requested about as to why they appear different from the latest photos they might say you can’t really comprehend the deal with on image otherwise anything of these characteristics? That knows, I most likely never will. |
en | N/A | N/A | A CERTAIN SLANT OF LIGHT: "LAW AND ORDER" -- WHAT A "TURKEY!"
A case in point: this Associated Press (AP) story about the long-jailed gunman -- Mehmet Ali Agca --Originally imprisoned in Italy for nearly twenty years for seriously wounding the Pope in the failed attempt to kill him, Agca was subsequently extradited to Turkey in 2000 and is serving time there now for earlier crimes committed in his native land, among them "for the 1979 murder of a prominent Turkish newspaper editor" and "for commandeering a taxi and an Istanbul robbery." Nice fellow!
But what offends one's sensibilities and thoroughly confounds one's notion of justice, is the conclusion of the AP report: "Agca's attorneys claim he could be released from jail as early as this year because of recent changes to Turkish law, although it was unclear if authorities would agree to free him."
UNCLEAR?AGREE TO FREE HIM?
I can just hear the winds of ratiocination blowing in from the secular Left -- "if the Pope can forgive him, why shouldn't society?" |
en | N/A | N/A | Well, it appears that we can finally put to rest all the back and forth over Jude Law's Captain Marvel role, as a leaked image of Hasbro's Marvel Legends Series figure packaging has arrived online which confirms that the British actor is NOT playing Mar-Vell (as previously suggested by a recent promo poster), but rather the Kree villain Yon-Rogg (as previously suggested by a Pop! Vinyl leak).
Yon-Rogg is a Kree military commander who in the comic books has a deep hatred of Mar-Vell and also played an instrumental role in Carol Danvers gaining her powers. Having kidnapped the Air Force pilot, Yon-Rogg battled Mar-Vell, which resulted in Carol being knocked into the Psyche-Magnitron, a Kree device that altered her genetic structure and granted her superhuman abilities.
Quite how closely the movie will stick to that origin story remains to be seen, particularly as it now seems that Mar-Vell could be absent from the film. However, we'd have to assume that however things play out, Captain Marvel and Yon-Rogg will find themselves on opposing sides by the end of the movie. |

</s> A federal judge has rejected Oracle's request to see some internal documents that were part of the military's JEDI cloud computing initiative procurement process and depose two witnesses the computing giant argued had conflicts of interest in favor of rival Amazon Web Services.
The order written by Judge Eric Bruggink, released Monday after it was first issued under seal last week, finds Oracle did not demonstrate the existing administrative record of JEDI procurement is incomplete, or there are grounds to conduct discovery during what remains an "early evaluation period" for the contract.
Ubhi served as JEDI project manager at the DoD, but previously worked for AWS;was a consultant for AWS before being tapped by the DoD.
AWS, which voluntarily joined the suit as a co-defendant of the federal government, recently argued both their roles in the JEDI process were "wildly overstated."
They include any documents involving DeMartino, Ubhi, or Sally Donnelly, formerly a senior advisor to former Secretary of Defense James Mattis, that relate to the preparation of a DoD memorandum from September of 2017 called "Accelerating Enterprise Cloud Adoption."
Oracle also wanted to see documents related to the trio’s involvement in Mattis' visit to Amazon's Seattle campus in 2017, as well as any communications the three had with AWS.
Oracle also asked the court to grant access to a Google Drive folder—or at least an index of its documents and metadata—that shed more light on who prepared documents involving the JEDI initiative.
All the relevant decisions throughout the process, however, are thoroughly, contemporaneously documented in a "voluminous" administrative record, AWS argued.<< </s> Sleep Apnea

en | N/A | N/A | Do you love scouring the Internet in search of neat, fun, and unique hand made items? If so, then you will love Box Of Happies. Box Of Happies is a subscription box that brings you 4-6 handmade items in every box. The items are considered Happies. Happies are items that make you smile and cheer you up. Each Box Of Happies subscription boxhold your Happies items or store other miscellaneous items around the house. Every product that is featured in Box Of Happies subscription boxes is handmade and can include accessories, bath and body products, jewelry, products for the home, and more. Keep each month’s Box Of Happies contents to yourself or share them with a friend or relative. Box Of Happies subscription boxes also make great gifts.
I (Jeni) was sent a Box Of Happies subscription box to test and review, and I couldn’t be happier!
I love really unique, hard to find items, and I have a huge appreciation for hand made items that you won’t find in big box stores. When my Box Of Happies subscription box arrived, I couldn’t wait to open it to find out what was inside. The Box Of Happies subscription box starts with the box, a clear plastic storage box that is perfect for keeping your Happies or other small items. Inside of the box, I found everything neatly wrapped in bright colors for a really nice, gift worthy presentation. My Box Of Happies contained 4 items. Included in my box was a small pouch, a pair of earrings, soap, and a necklace.
My Box Of Happies necklace came packaged inside of a bright blue mesh pouch that is more than gift worthy, if I didn’t want to keep the necklace for myself. The necklace is a beautiful silver chain with a lobster claw clasp and features a white stone pendant in the shape of a crystal. The chain is a great length, not too short and not too long. The necklace was definitely my favorite item in my Box Of Happies. My box also contained an adorable little round pouch with a blue, white, and brown zig zag pattern on it. The pouch has a key clip style key chain that allowed me to clip it inside of my purse. It’s 3.5” in diameter and the perfect size for holding small items like loose change, lip gloss, ear buds, and more. The pouch was wrapped in plastic so that I could give it as a gift if I wanted to, but this pouch is too cute not to keep for myself.
One of the nicest things in my Box Of Happies was a beautiful purple bar of soap in the shape of a group of rock crystals. It’s purple in color, and I love the color and scent of it. My soap is Black Raspberry and Vanilla and has a very sweet, dessert like scent without being overpowering or smelly. It lathers really well as both a hand soap and in the shower, and makes my skin really soft. Rock Hound Soaps are inspired by nature in shapes such as geodes, crystals, and amethyst and come in 70 different scents. It’s definitely a soap line that I will be taking a closer look at. The final item in my Box Of Happies was a beautiful pair of silver rose shaped earrings on a card. These earrings are so cute, they will match so many outfits and can be dressed up or down.
I loved my Box Of Happies subscription box, and I appreciated the mixture between items that were fun to wear like the necklace and items that had a practical purpose like the Rock Hound soap. All though I am keeping all of the items in my Box Of Happies for myself, you could easily divide up a single subscription box into multiple gifts. The presentation is beautiful and well thought out, and the items are unique, and items I may not ever have heard about had I not received them in this box. If you like hand made items like I do, then I am sure you will love Box Of Happies subscription boxes.
Box Of Happies subscription boxes are available in 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 month subscriptions. You can start with a single box to see if you like it or go for a longer subscription right away. Box Of Happies limits the number of boxes that they send out each month, and all though they don’t disclose what that number is, you want to make sure to sign up for yours early so that you don’t miss out. Every subscription box contains 4-6 items and they are always handmade items.
If you ayou can purchase individual jewelry items on their website as well as an item that they call Surprise Me 3. Surprise Me 3 lets you choose product categories that you want your handmade items to be from, and then they send you 3 items of their choosing in a surprise grab bag. Surprise Me 3 is a great way to see what Box Of Happies has to offer without committing to a subscription box. Box Of Happies subscription boxes start at $24 a box, and the longer your subscription, the cheaper the per box cost becomes. Surprise Me 3 bags are just $18.50 and individual jewelry items are only $8.
Right now, when you visit the Box Of Happies website and you make a purchase of $20 or more, you’ll receive a free silver key necklace when you use the coupon code KEYNECKLACE. If you want something to be happy about each month, then definitely check out Box Of Happies subscriptions boxes, you won’t be disappointed! |

en | N/A | N/A | New VA hospital likely in Aurora
By Marsha Austin
Aurora – A major medical center proposed for Colorado veterans is likely to find a home somewhere on the Fitzsimons campus, federal and local officials said Wednesday.
Since then, the VA has been working with the Fitzsimons Redevelopment Authority, which controls the rest of the campus, to find a site.
The proposed $328 million VA hospital has been in the works for seven years.
University and VApecifically, the VA wanted 38 acres on what is now a golf course. That land is earmarked to become a future private business park for biotech and pharmaceutical companies, a deal that would bring major tax dollars to Aurora.
In a meeting Wednesday with The Denver Post’s editorial board, Beauprez said negotiations are going well between the VA and the Fitzsimons authority. The Colorado Republican said one location, in particular, “is a good site, and it can accommodate their needs.”

What is Retinoblastoma Cancer?
Occurrence Rate of Retinoblastoma Cancer
Retinoblastoma is a rare disease and is indicated by a white dot on the retina and a squint. It accounts for almost 2% of all cancer occurrences in children below the age of 15. Globally, there are 11 cases per million children below 5 years of age, who have retinoblastoma. It may relieve the mind of many to know the rarity of this disease.
ICongenital (hereditary) Retinoblastoma:
For about 33% of children with Retinoblastoma, the abnormality in the RB1 gene isthe cells of both retinas. This is known as a germline mutation.
Sporadic (non-hereditary) Retinoblastoma
In about 66in only a cell in one eye. The causes of this change are still under scrutinization. A child who has sporadic retinoblastoma develops only one tumor in one eye. This type of Retinoblastoma is often found at a later age than the hereditary form.
Anatomy of Retinoblastoma Cancer
What are the general symptoms of Retinoblastoma Cancer?
Leukocoria Misaligned eyes (strabismus)
SqRedness or inflammation of eyes
The colored part of the eye and pupil look cloudy.
What are the general causes of Retinoblastoma Cancer?toma.
Heredity: 40% of ReThese patients are typically diagnosed before 1 year of age. Patients with hereditary Retinoblastoma may pass this disease to their children.
Can Retinoblastoma Cancer be prevented?
Since the causative and risk factors for Retinoblastoma are all natural and we have no control over them, so it becomes almost impossible to prevent the occurrence of Retinoblastoma Cancer. However, it brings a sigh of relief to know that the success rate of treatment is quite high when the cancer is diagnosed at its early stage. So the best prevention is through early detection.
General eye exam of the eyes of babies at birth and after 6 -12 months helps in detecting any serious congenital problems. Adults are advised to take their babies for a regular eye examination at least once a year or more often if one has any eye issues.
What are the stages of Retinoblastoma Cancer?
Recurrent Retinoblastoma: Recurrent disease means that cancer has come back or progress or elsewhere in the body.
Stage II: The tumor is in the eye only. The eye needs to be removed, yet there are cancer cells left that can be seen only with a microscope.
In stage IVa, cancer has spread to the blood but not to the brain or spinal cord. One or more tumors or liver.
Survival rates of Retinoblastoma Cancer?
The survival.
Can Retinoblastoma Cancer be detected early?
Ophthalmoscopy: The inside of the eye is carefully observed using a small magnifying lens and a light to check the retina and optic nerve.
Blood testa change in the RB1 gene.
CT scan (CAT scan): In this procedure, a series of detailed pictures of the eye are
Local Therapy: For smaller tumors, treatment is given to the eye itself. One of the following methods may be used:
Cryotherapy/Focal Therapy: It is the treatment with laser therapy or freezing treatments (cryotherapy) while under anesthesia. These focal therapies may continue even after chemotherapy is complete. Sometimes, the tumors in the eye are small enough to be treated with only focal therapy.
Laser Therapy: A laser is directed through the pupil and used to heat the tumour. A number of sessions of laser therapy are recommended at intervals of 3 to 4 weeks.
Plaque:
Thermotherapyr.
Anti-Cancer drugs are used to destroy Cancer cells. It Retinoblastoma are carboplatin, etoposide and vincristine. Some of the most common chemotherapies used are:
Ophthalmic artery infusion chemotherapy
Enucleation (Surgery)
If the tumor is very large and the vision in the eye is lost, an operation to remove the eye is recommended. The specialist will only do this if it is absolutely necessary. An artificial eye is then fitted.
Is there curative treatment for Retinoblastoma Cancer?
Retinoblastoma is a very rare disease having a high curative rate. When detected at an early stage it can be cured with surgery, chemotherapy, focal therapy and radiation without causing much harm to the eyes.
In case of experiencing any of the mentioned symptoms or having a familial history of Retinoblastoma Cancer, a complete diagnostic is recommended once in a year.
The age of the patients is generally very low, so the parents and relatives should take responsibility to keep a vigilant eye on the child’s behavior and consult the doctor in case of any suspicion.

en | N/A | N/A | The Crime of Cheating! So it seems that in America we have a conscience. Albeit a conditional conscience, but nevertheless a conscience.
Well, Tiger Woods was the latest victim. Sad to say for me I won’t see him and golf the same anymore. The reason is not what you think. I DO NOT condone cheating on your spouse, but it happens. I don’t condone lying either, but guess what? It happens. However, here we have this rich guy, who has made this woman rich beyond her wildest imagination. He’s a very powerful man who does many charitable things – including a state of the art school for inner city kids to provide them with a first-class education. One reporter made the comment that he shouldn’t have the school anymore because he’s not a good role model. Seriously?!?
It’s not even our business. Some argue that this is the price for fame. It’s not. He is a victim of circumstance. Seventy years ago, this wouldn’t have made the news. Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth and many other athletes, rich folks, presidents and famous actors cheated. Men particularly would cheat because they could without much of a penalty back then. There were not even laws to take care of the victims back then. So guess what the victims did? They stayed. They made adjustments and they remained married. It was what men did and women were expected to take it and be thankful for what they had. (Rent the movie Mona Lisa Smile for more info on this).

en | N/A | N/A | Home › About Natchez › History
Natchez, the birthplace of Mississippi, is known internationally as a quaint, Southern town with a rich culture and heritage shaped by people of African, French, British and Spanish descent.
Shortly after French settlers joined the Natchez Indians on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River, they brought people from western Africa as slaves to provide labor for development. These members of the Bambara tribe — whose name means “those who accept no master” — were the first Africans in what would become the State of Mississippi. Known for their abilities to cultivate the earth, the Bambarans contributed greatly to the economic growth of the region and the nation.
As the settlement grew, French, English and Spanish residents began constructing homes and buildings in the styles with which they were familiar, leaving several architectural influences and creating the unique backdrop to the city with which our residents and visitors enjoy today.
Today, the legacy of these original settlers lives on in the historical sites that enrich Natchez and its surroundings — including the churches of the state’s oldest Black-Baptist and Catholic congregations — and in the lives of the area’s vibrant community.
Visitors can explore Natchez history, including the community’s cultural, economic and political growth through the Natchez Visitor Center, the Natchez National Historical Park, Natchez African American History and Culture Museum and Natchez Pilgrimage Tours. These fascinating learning opportunities are complimented by celebrations and events throughout the year, including Fall and Spring Pilgrimage, The Natchez Literary and Cinema Celebration and many more. |
en | N/A | N/A | Jane Got a Gun ist ein US-amerikanischer Western von Gavin O'Connor aus dem Jahr 2015.
Sie verlassen die Stadt zur Hammond-Farm, wo Bill im Bett mit dem Tode ringt. Es wird offensichtlich, dass Jane und Dan eine gemeinsame Vergangenheit verbindet, und während sie sich auf die Ankunft der Bishop-Bande vorbereiten, erfährt man in mehreren Rückblenden die Vorgeschichte:
Vor etwa zehn Jahren waren Jane und Dan ein Paar und wollten heiraten. Doch Dan wollte zuvor in den Bürgerkrieg ziehen und schon nach wenigen Monaten zurückkehren. Als er jedoch nach drei Jahren immer noch nicht zurück war, ging Jane von seinem Tod aus und wollte ihre Heimat Missouri verlassen. Zwei Monate nach Dans Abreise hatte sie erfahren, dass sie ein Kind erwartete, und nun wollte sie nach dem vermeintlichen Tod ihres Verlobten mit ihrer inzwischen zweijährigen Tochter Mary mit einem Wagenzug gen Westen ziehen. Der dubiose Geschäftsmann John Bishop hatte den Wagenzug organisiert, um in New Mexico eine Stadt aufzubauen, die unter seiner Kontrolle steht. Mit Jane hatte er jedoch andere Pläne; sie sollte in seinem geplanten Bordell für Umsatz sorgen. Bill Hammond, damals einer von Bishops Vertrauten, hatte ein Auge auf Jane geworfen, konnte jedoch nicht verhindern, dass sie am Ende ihrer Reise von Bishops Männern in das Bordell verschleppt wurde. Die kleine Mary hingegen wurde von Bishops jüngerem Bruder Vic augenscheinlich ertränkt. Als Bill dies erfuhr, drang er in das Bordell ein, erschoss vier von Bishops Männern und floh mit Jane aus dem Einflussbereich Bishops.
Beide, Jane und Dan, sind offensichtlich bestürzt, die Geschichte voller Missverständnisse und Vorwürfe des jeweils anderen zu erfahren. Dan, der Bill gegenüber immer sehr ablehnend eingestellt war, da er ein ehemaliger Verbrecher ist und ihm seine große Liebe weggenommen hat, scheint seine Meinung zu ändern. Zusammen mit Jane rüstet er die Farm gegen den bevorstehenden Angriff der Bishop-Bande, die den Tod ihrer Kumpane rächen und Jane in das Bordell zurückbringen wollen. Da das Anwesen neben einem unpassierbaren Graben liegt und von einem steilen Höhenzug umgeben ist, kann es nur über eine Engstelle erreicht werden. Deshalb präpariert er den Vorplatz des Farmhauses mit Sprengfallen aus Petroleum, Schießpulver, Glasscherben und Nägeln, und versucht, Jane das Schießen mit dem Revolver beizubringen.
Bishop lässt seine Männer die Gegend nach Hammonds Farm absuchen, und am nächsten Tag erreicht einer davon das Anwesen. Er erkennt Jane und wird daher von Dan vom Pferd geschossen. Dennoch weiß Bishop nun, wo er die Farm finden kann, und greift nachts überraschend mit seinen Leuten an. Hierbei wird Dan verwundet, kann jedoch die Sprengfallen zünden und einen Großteil der Bande töten. Er und Jane verschanzen sich im Haus. Im Kugelhagel schleppen sie Bill in den Vorratskeller, doch der stirbt kurz darauf an seinen Verletzungen. Dan schleicht sich nach draußen, trifft dort auf Vic Bishop und tötet ihn, wird unmittelbar darauf jedoch vom letzten der Bande, John Bishop, gestellt. Bevor der abdrücken kann, steht Jane mit gezücktem Revolver hinter ihm und zwingt ihn zur Aufgabe. Um sein Leben zu retten, verrät John, dass Mary damals nicht ertrunken ist, sondern lebt. Daraufhin schießt Jane ihm mehrmals in Arme und Beine, um Marys Aufenthaltsort zu erfahren, den er schließlich preisgibt, woraufhin sie ihn tötet.
Nachdem sie Bill begraben haben, finden Jane und Dan tatsächlich ihre tot geglaubte Tochter Mary wieder. Jane lässt sich beim Marshall das nicht unerhebliche Kopfgeld für die Bishop-Bande auszahlen und macht sich mit Dan und ihren beiden Töchtern in einem Planwagen auf in Richtung Westen, um am Pazifik ein neues Leben anzufangen.

en | N/A | N/A | The danger with ‘management consultancy’ is that it often brings up everyone’s favourite joke. Of course it’s great being a consultant.
Sadly we’ve not found that to be very successful – clients tend not to ask you back if you take that approach.
Strange as it may sound it’s almost impossible for business owners and managers truly engaged with the business, to take a back step and view the business from the perspective of the ‘fifth’ chair. They will always – rightly in many cases – see the issues form their perspective and the perspective of their division or team.
Typically our consultancy interventions involve taking that objective perspective and then developing that capability within the business so people can take it for themselves – a really business-changing intervention. |

-Jessica </s> 3D TV Is Dead (cnet.com) 399. </s> Hi, I looked into rAltmetric library and realized it can be used to retrieve counts for different values. If I go to Altmetric website, they ask for different level of subscription to access such data. I am wondering if using rAltmetric library without a subscription is legal.
Hi Javed,I was just replying to your email as well. Yes, what we're doing is legal. We are using API keys provided by altmetric.com themselves and there is no issue distributing them with the R package. We are also not the only ones using it. However, it would be worth noting that these keys are severely rate limited. Meaning that you cannot only make a small number of requests per day. Given that the keys ship with the package, this limit is shared by every single person that uses the package. So, for any serious and sustained research, it wont really work (unless you do a little bit each day). It would be similar to one being able to read a few NY times articles a month for free. For a very casual reader this might be fine. But for a regular reader a paid subscription would be required. I hope this answers your question. Happy to discuss more.

en | N/A | N/A | You know those times when you are struck with a brilliant, life-altering, million-dollar, save-the-world idea at the exact moment when you can’t do anything about it? As a person who works with ideas, you will probably have more brilliant ideas than you can ever put into action. Paradoxically, we’ve all had the experience of finally “getting in writing mode” and realizing that the ideas just won’t come. I think this is because the “inspiration” and the “perspiration” parts of your brain seldom come to work on the same day, and good note-taking is the key to helping them work together.
By capturing ideas in an organized way, you can come back to your “inspiration” moments while you are in your “perspiration” mode– thereby tearing down the barriers to getting started.
1) You can take it with you everywhere. This is where systems like a little paper notebook, voice recorder, or cell-phone based idea-catcher work best. I always have my smartphone with me, so I can always capture voice, photo, and text-based notes on Evernote (my favorite idea-catcher of them all). My best friend carries a folded piece of paper in his pocket and swears it holds his whole life together. It doesn’t matter what it is, just that you have it on you at all times.
2) It doesn’t take much thought to get started. You don’t want an idea-catcher that requires too many steps (like remembering a password, logging in, checking your email) before you can record this idea. If it takes more than 10 seconds or two steps to get started, you may lose that precious idea. I like making voice notes to myself, so I keep ReQall.com on speed dial on my phone. One click and I am dictating voice notes to myself.
3) It can store ideas of all types. You want an idea-catcher (or catcherS) well suited to the many forms your ideas may come in. You may find it more effective to use a suite of tools to capture to-do’s, interesting website bookmarks, snippets of writing, tweets, audio recordings, photos, videos, and whatever else you need to save.
4) You can easily come back & review your ideas. Saving your ideas is great, but a good idea-catcher system should make it easy to come back and view your ideas in an organized way. You don’t want to wade through a mess of weird files and scrawlings when your “perspiration” mind just wants to get started!
This is where Web 2.0 technologies really shine, because they make it easy to tag, categorize, and search your notes. My beloved Evernote is my repository for everything from song lyrics, to do’s, business cards, blog posts-to-be, meeting minutes, etc. etc. etc. I have a tag for “song ideas”, so when I am sitting down at my home studio looking for some lyrics to sing, I can fire up Evernote and be recording in seconds.
While Evernote is great for that, many blogs, tumblelogs, online office apps, and even microblogging services (like Twitter) allow you to tag & search your ideas for future review.
Evernote— ideally suited for everything I’ve discussed here. The more you work with it, the more you’ll find it can do!
Voice Mail- call yourself and dictate notes!
Twitter– easy to do, easy to review!
Google Voice – A revolutionary mixture of phone, voice mail, email, SMS, and awesome. Great for catching ideas!
Don’t Forget the Perspiration!
We’ve done a pretty good job of storing our “Inspiration”, but remember that this is only 1% of the job. Your job as a creative individual is to take these pieces of inspiration and weave them into something that the world can use. As Merlin Mann so eloquently states (and I’m paraphrasing), there is no magic tool for this. You just have to do it. A lot. A lot. The people who find ways to move through this ugly, challenging phase of creation become the masters of their craft.

"You definitely learn a lot and start with a clean slate the first time you have a race weekend on fresh pavement. For us, I think that we'll be a lot better this time around since we didn't have the results we wanted at Texas back in April, but we learned a lot that race weekend. …Turns 1 and 2 are so much flatter now than it is in Turns 3 and 4, so before the track was somewhat symmetrical in both ends, but now, it's not at all." |
en | N/A | N/A | and resources, and lots of thoughts, deep thoughts.
Mini – rant …. I was really frustrated by the way I kept searching for films about “girls” and kept coming up with films about women. As if they were interchangeable. I tackled this life-long conundrum in college. Why are women called girls? But young men are not called boys – they are usually guys. In fact it feels like woman is a bad word. So many people use lady or girl but there are not many other alternatives. I think when you say “woman” people read “feminist”. Perhaps I should research how the two are used. I don’t know. I’m not a sociologist.
So, I’m just going to start at my beginning – films about girls of color.
As I’ve searched several on-line “lists” of films, I find very few narrative films that include girls of color (17 and under) as the main or even secondary protagonists. I know there aren’t a lot out there. But I’m going to make my own list (in no particular order).
I’d like to see what is really available for girls of color to watch. And for boys of color. Most of the films on this list have very adult themes and language. What can little girls watch? Where can they see themselves as the protagonist, as the hero?
I’d like to see if any of this is even relevant anymore because so many young people get their media from the internet now –youtube or Netflix or Hulu. If five minute videos or 6 second vines are our future, does it mass media representation matte anymore?
Thank you HBO Signature Channel. I was cruising through the cable guide (as I occasionally do, looking for old favorites, cool stuff I missed or intriguing new movies/shows) when I saw this description, “Latina teens Yolanda and Mari enter into a romance that’s threatened by external factors as a crucial turning point in both their lives.” So I DVR’d it of course.
It is so much sweeter than it’s description. “Romance” would be exaggerating the relationship they have. It’s a slippery slope friendship where the one “good” girl has a crush, and quietly pursues a friendship with a harder edged lonely girl who moves in across the street. This story felt so familiar to me, the writer/director Aurora Guerrero got it so “right” to me. Feelings are not really expressed, and there is only the barest of a touch towards the end of the film but all the ache of first love is there. The desire to help, to be important to the other person, to have a secret life separate from your parents. It’s a sweet story and the actresses do a great job handling the subtlety and restraint the roles call for.
There are not enough films about little girls of color – black girls, Asian girls, Latina girls, Native American girls. And while there are more about little white girls, too many are about their victimization. Sometimes our world is so messed up and I could dwell on it, and sometimes I do, and sometimes I will but not today. Today, it’s about courage.
You can learn a lot about how the film was made and the filmmaker’s methods there.
When I first saw “Beasts” it was in a movie theater, which, because I have small kids and never leave the house, was a big deal. And better yet, my filmmaker friend Jason just happened to be in town so we caught it together. Jason has two girls under ten, as do I, so had many lenses through which to view the film.
2014 Update - Saw Frozen with my kids - you guessed it, parents were killed off early.
I’m jumping back into film study with an eye towards what has been going on in films about girls and women since I’ve gotten distracted by having children. That was about 9 years ago. Now my children are all in full-time elementary school and I feel a bit out of touch.
But I decided to begin in my comfort zone – animation, mostly Disney and Pixar (now the same thing), and I have become painfully aware of a device used to tell many, many stories. I will call it, “Killing off the Mom”.
Happy Feet – Mom lives and is nice!
I'm a teacher of video production but a student of film. And now that I'm a parent, I'm a careful critic of all things media. It's a weird position to be in but I view most things through many lenses. Professor and parent, filmmaker and movie fan.
I'm not interested in critique so much as celebration and study of the films and media in our world. I hope to be a voice, a resource and a supporter. |

en | N/A | N/A | “ two one tw itIn Portugese the word “saudade” is romanticized and mythologized as being impossible to translate. While the true meaning may be culturally specific, a rough translation is something like a nostalgic remembrance that goes hand-in-hand with longing, yearning or an absence of something or someone. “Saudade” is an active, enveloping, not-exactly-sadness. One feels it about a person that’s remembered but long-gone, or maybe even about a love one has never experienced but hopes for in the future. In his essay “Aesthetics of Saudade” Brazilian translator and linguist Leandro Feldmann ascribes this feeling to the natural: “Thus, ‘the naited’. So, saudade incorporates this feeling of idealization of childhood, combining the desire of being naïve and the remembrance of ourselves in a time that we were pure, in other words, pure nature.” |

2005 Malaysia Airlines incident raises questions about pilot training
The search for wreckage of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 resumed Wednesday, with search planes traveling to the suspected crash site 1,500 miles off the Australian coast.
Finding this debris is critical when it comes to determining what went wrong. Was it pilot error?
OutFront has been looking at an incident from 2005 involving a Boeing 777 that raises questions about the training pilots are getting.
According to the Australian Transportation Safety Bureau, the incident happened on a flight from Perth to Kuala Lumpur.
It's said to have been an issue with the auto-pilot.
The takeaway from the report: "When the hardware failure occurred, combined with the software anomaly, the crew were faced with an unexpected situation that had not been foreseen. Subsequently, the crew had not been trained to respond to a specific situation of this type..."
Boeing did not return our request for a comment on the incident.
But if there was some sort of mechanical failure with Flight 370 would the pilots have known what to do?

Cloud computing with I-Phone technology stores everything, including the location of your cell phone in the event of loss. With built-in GPS, could cell-phone technology not be used to find the location of passenger's "lost phones", thus lost plane?

Be grateful for all that you have because it is more than most and certainly greater than you deserve.
So always say; “Thank You“.

Inversely, never expect thanks or gratitude. Such behavior infers that you are greedy. Greedy means that you are treated poorly. See, easy enough path to follow?

en | N/A | N/A | Is your organization moving toward a less bureaucratic structure? Is it also looking to remove traditional hierarchical decision-making? Congratulations! Many organizations are undertaking this journey to tackle the growing complexity of the modern workplace. In the context of the world we live in, companies must evolve in this direction to survive and thrive.
In this article, we will share some underlying assumptions behind self-organization. We will also share some of the typical "growing pains" of self-organization and how to overcome them.
In our opinion, self-organization is not about loosening or relinquishing control. Nor is it about changing management style to "motivate" or "engage" employees. It is about putting control where it can be best applied: with the people who have the expertise to make decisions on how to best do the work.
At its core, self-organization assumes people can learn to perform many different functions. This includes how to get organized and hold themselves and one another accountable. It is more than a change in human relationships; it is a change in the structure of the system.
There is a big risk in thinking exclusively of self-organization as "getting rid of command and control." Without a suitable alternative in place, we may also be getting rid of clarity of authority and process. Without this clarity, we may no longer know who can decide what, or which processes to follow. Becoming self-organized means that a group of individuals and interactions, also known as "the team," will begin to make the decisions previously made by a manager, process or tool.
Since every self-organizing team works within a unique context, this raises many questions: What exactly is the team responsible for and not responsible for? Which decisions does the team have the authority to make? Which decisions will management make? How can the team both make these decisions, and hold themselves accountable for them? What happens if the team fails? Not taking the time to explore these questions can cause confusion, ambiguity, anxiety and frustration for everyone involved.
The same idea applies to self-organization. It may be necessary to clarify what self-organization means in your specific context in order to arrive at a common understanding. It may also be necessary to identify some of the first steps with your team. What would they like to focus on doing differently? What would they prefer to learn in the first month? In what area would they want to have more authority and take on more responsibility?
Start anywhere! Don't spend a lot of time identifying the "best" place to start; there is no such thing! Simply start where there is the most drive and passion to make a change. This, in fact, is the best place to start. Guide the change by focusing on what can be learned by starting there. Create momentum by building on what you are learning every step of the way.
In the Agile world, this is what Scrum Masters facilitate at every retrospective. It's fine if the team doesn't get everything right at the start of their journey. The key is for the team to embark on a cycle of continuous improvement by starting within their own context.in this type of situation. The first is helping the team learn by doing something useful and valuable. The second is wondering whether they are aiming for perfection because they feel they can't make a mistake and must get it right the first time.
A third challenge teams face is impatience—with themselves, with each other, with the process and with the team as a whole. Self-organization can indeed speed up decision-making processes, and make the organization a faster, more Agile and more resilient learner. However, it won't happen by simply saying so! It takes work—both individual and collective—to change the culture and create new patterns of interaction. "How we work here" will not change in a day.
Collectively, a team must build the capacity to continually improve how it functions as a unit. A few years ago, Google conducted a large research project based on the question, "what makes a team effective?" They found that what really mattered was not so much who is on the team, but rather, how the team works together. In fact, variables such as collocation, consensus, extroversion, individual performance, workload, seniority, team size and tenure did not have a significant impact on team effectiveness.
Building individual and collective capacity is an ongoing process of improvement.
In our coaching work, we are impressed, excited and touched by what self-organization can bring to the workplace. When people "get it" and start taking collective ownership, their workplace transforms. The organization's structure and processes begin to provide better support for the work they love to do. Laughter increases, people take more initiative, reach out and engage with one another.
Teams and managers gain a lot when they become more aware of these three growing pains. It supports them as their processes and structures shift toward self-organization. The good news is that experiencing growing pains means you are actually growing. |

“Arizona has a large share of children in foster care, as well as a high ratio of children living in renter vs owner households,” said WalletHub Analyst Jill Gonzalez. “Other factors that contributed to the state’s poor ranking include the third largest percentage of adolescents who feel sad or hopeless, a high child food insecurity rate, and a large share of uninsured children.
“States in the northeast seem to be doing a better job of addressing the problem of underprivileged children. They have some of the lowest shares of children living in extreme poverty, some of the smallest infant and child death rates, and quality public school systems.”
Arizona has the fourth highest percentage of uninsured children, both the eighth highest child food-insecurity and percentage of children in foster care, the 11th16th highest homeless rate among children and youth.
“Arizona also needs to improve in terms of education,” Ms. Gonzalez said. “Some of the results of its poor quality school system can be seen in the fourth lowest public high school graduation rate, a large share of young children not enrolled in school, and one of the highest percentages of teens who are neither attending school nor working.”
While some single parents handle their children well, Arizona still has the 12th“At a minimum, all children need at least one loving supportive adult in their lives and resources to develop their individual skills and aspirations,” said Trina R. Shanks, Ph.D., a social work faculty member at the University of Michigan. “Unfortunately, due to hugeoften reified by residential segregation, those that have the most need live in the most disadvantaged circumstances.”
As a nation, the United States has the seventh highest rate of child poverty — 29.4% — among economically developed countries, according to a report by UNICEF, which used 2014 estimates that showwas less than 60% of the national median, after taxes and benefits, and adjustments for family size and composition.
With children living in poverty-stricken households, obtaining an early start on education may be a problem.
Neal M. Horen, Ph.brain development.
“We understand from longitudinal studies and form the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study that the impact of negative events early in life has life long consequences into adulthood,” he said. “So, the most efficient and effective programs for equalizing opportunity are those that impact young children in this regard, including home visiting programs.
“Strong early care and education programs particularly high quality child care and the federal Early Head Start/Head Start program are places that enrichile also addressing motor, cognitive, communication and school readiness skills.”
However, in the way of quality education for some children is foster care.
“Children in foster care are more disadvantaged and are more likely to be maltreated or become homeless,” Ms. Gonzalez said. “They also have little to no access to quality healthcare and education, and thus have limited opportunities.”

Denmark and Finland are among the nations with the most generous social expenditures — each spending about one-fifth of their GDP — and the lowest post-tax post-transfer, child poverty rates — both below 4%. The EPI used share of children living in households making below half of a country’s adjusted median income in 2014, as opposed to below 60% by UNICEF’s findings from above.

“Some elected officials pay more attention to underprivileged than others,” Ms. Shanks said. “But very few seem to appreciate how great existing disparities are and the level of investment and coordination across systems that would be necessary to actually make the country more equitable and improve outcomes for children with the greatest need.” |

Vehicle Speed Control Ford 2013
I Purchased A 2013 transit Connect From A ford Dealer This Fall. Still Under ford Warranty And Purchased Extended Warranty Through ford. Today We Got Our First Snow And While Driving The Tcs Kicked In And Basically Disabled The vehicle. I Was Unable To Move, So While I Had My Foot On The Accelerator The vehicles Tvs Light Was On But The vehicle Would Not Move. I Opened The Owners Manual And Looked For The Tcs Shut Off Button Listed In The Manual And My vehicle Does Have One. So Now I Realize I Am In A Dangerous Situation Because I Cannot Move And Other vehicle Including Two Wheel Drive Cars Are Driving Around Me. I Just Invested $20,000 In A vehicle For My Business ( Heating/cooling/electric) And I Cannot Even Get To The Customers House With And Inch Of Snow On The Ground. I Was Able To Finally Reverse To A Driveway And After 30 Minutes Get The vehicle To Move Down The Small Grade. I Literally Was Able To Drive A 14 Year Old Honda Civic That Cost $3200 Up The Slight Slope That A Like New With Only 32k Miles On It transit Connect Would Not Go. I Feel This Is A Safety Hazard And I Do Not Feel Comfortable Driving This vehicle. So Far The Local Dealership And fords Customer Care Line Have No Answers For Me. Why In The Owners Manual Is There A Listed Tcs Shut Off Button And A Location On My Dashboard For It But No Part # Or Option To Add It To My vehicle. I Invested In This ford For My Business And Now I Cannot Even Get To Customers Homes. I Am Afraid To Drive It Now And Not Sure What To Do Since The Dealer Has No Answers And ford Had None Either. I Cannot Believe That The Engineers At ford Motor Company Did Not Think To Out This Tcs Off Button On All vehicle Equipped With Tcs And That The Nhtsa Has Not Fined ford Motor Company They Have Not Issued A Recall. , How Can Engineers Designe A vehicle For The Usa That Will Not Move In An Inch Of Snow?

Hardly a week goes by without a plane somewhere in the US making an emergency landing after hitting birds. As these incidents reach record levels, airportcombating them.A Southwest Airlines plane recently made an emergency return to Tennessee's Nashville International Airport after hitting birds at take-off. There was a similar incident at Chicago's O'Hare Airport a few weeks ago and another involving an AlaskaOakland while en route to Honolulu.bird strikes has increased nearly six-fold since 1990 to a record 10,343 in 2012.
This is blamed on four factors. There are larger populations of some of the birds responsible - for instance, there are twice as many Canada geese in North America now as there were in 1990. And many birds find airports to be attractive habitats.
'There was a boom'
Charlie Hilbrant teaches student pilots in Chicago how to deal with bird strikes. One (above) shattered his windscreen and forced him to return his jet airline back to O'Hare Airport.
There are also more flights, quieter engines and greater awareness which has meant more rigorous reporting. After a US Airways plane was downed by geese and had to land in the Hudson in New York in 2009 - making pilot Chesley Sullenberger an overnight international hero - reports of bird strikes spiked.But in recent years, bird-strike damage to aircraft in the vicinity of airports has fallen, because of success in dispersing the birds, and improving aircraft design. Here's a selection of methods already used or in the pipeline.1. Every airport in the US, and many more across the world, use pyrotechnics daily to drive the birds away, says Michael Begier, national co-ordinator of the airport wildlife hazards programme at the US Department of Agriculture. "The flash, bang kind of stuff immediately gets their attention and pushes them away." Bangers and screamers make a loud explosion, others make a whistling sound, while some emit sparks - different birds respond to different things and some even take flight at the mere sight of the wildlife vehicle. A banger shot from a pistol cartridge can travel 30-40 yards before exploding, while a 12-gauge shotgun can reach 70-100 yards. Waterfowl respond fairly well and after two or three times they relocate. Raptors can be harder to move.
Airport biologist Odin Stephens deploys pyrotechnics at a military airbase 3. Bird distress signals are a pretty effective way of dispersing species that cause these problems, says David Randell, director of Scarecrow, which provides systems to 20-30 British airports. Speakers mounted on a car emit the sounds of up to 20 different species, operated by a driver using a tablet-style device.
Sky's job description - chase birds
4. A border collie called Sky has been chasing birds for five years at Fort Myers, Florida. Since 1999, when dogs were first used, there has been a 17% drop in bird strikes. While the egrets, herons and moorhens can get used to pyrotechnics, they never adapt to the presence of a natural predator like Sky, says Ellen Lindblad, director of planning and environmental compliance at Southwest Florida International Airport. "She seems to love it, day after day. This is what border collies are bred for."5. Pig. Wildlife services had tried harassing them without success, then someone came up with the idea of putting pigs on their island habitat, adjacent to the airport. The pigs trampled and ate the gulls' eggs and are now used for a few weeks every spring as a deterrent. The migrating gulls arrive, see the pigs waiting to eat their eggs, and then go to another location. 6. Eliminating vegetation removes a food source for birds and deters them from settling. At Salt Lake City, 70 acres of grassland was replaced this summer with ground-up asphalt. Grasshoppers, gnats and armyworms attract rodents which in turn attract raptors. An airport in Sandusky, Ohio, has experimented with different types of grass, to identify which mix is least attractive to Canada geese.7. About 300-500 raptors are trapped and relocated each year at Salt Lake City, including red-tail hawks, barn owls and peregrine falcons. Some traps use a rodent to entice the bird and catch their feet in a noose. Others are self-operating, built on top of pigeon coops to attract larger birds - they swoop in, and a door slams shut behind them.
Plane v reptile
About 6% of all reported collisions with wildlife cause a precautionary landing or aborted take-off
Birds were involved in 97%, terrestrial mammals in 2.2% and the rest by bats and reptiles
70% of bird strikes with civil aircraft occurred below 500 feet (152 m)229 aircraft since 1988
Source: FAA, US Dept of Agriculture
8. Achicken gun is used to test the durability of aircraft windscreens and engines. A thawed chicken is fired out of the gun using compressed air, in an effort to simulate the impact of a bird hitting the plane in flight.9. Lights on aircraft could be used to increase their visibility to birds, says Begier. The idea is to manipulate the characteristics of the light by varying the pulse rat and tune these changes to specific bird species. The lights would provide an earlier warning so the birds can detect and avoid the aircraft. Some of these changes to the light might be imperceptible to humans. Evidence collected from dead birds in airports suggests they were trying to evade the planes when they were hit. "We realised that the birds are trying to make the right decision but don't have enough time so what we are trying to do with the light research is give them that time." "We've "n't yet identify the species or numbers. "Th's not quite there is the problemk |

Enterprise helps colleges integrate more career-related coursework into their curriculum and uses feedback from its network of Fortune 500 companies, along with third-party job market research, to design much of what it offers. The company creates the courses — and pairs them with expert instructors — to teach students the skills they'll ideally need to fill the jobs of the future.
Previously, Coursera's Enterprise arm has also helped up-skill and re-skill workforces in countries such as Egypt and Pakistan to empower unemployed youth.
According to Belsky, the Workforce Recovery Initiative may help facilitate a pathway into more stable careers in the future. "Significantly, a lot of the jobs that [unemployed workers] left are not necessarily going to exist when the economy comes roaring back to life."
Fedenewly enrolled learnerir courses.
The new initiative gives unemployed workers access to 90% of Coursera's catalog for free. Among the courses available are those that can take beginners from unrelated fields and make them ready for entry-level roles in another, like tech.
Another example is the COVID-19 Contact Tracing course designed by Johns Hopkins that prepares learners to become one of the expected 6,400 to 17,000 Contact Tracers in New York alone. Through Bloomberg Philanthropies, that course — which takes only six hours to complete — is completely free for anyone to take.
The courses themselves are relatively accessible. They're self-paced, are occasionally offered in multiple languages (though English is the vast majority), there's no need to install any software to complete guided projects, and they can be accessed via web, mobile device, or by download.
You can still enroll in classes through Coursera by checking the full course catalog here. It's not covered by the Coursera Workforce Recovery Initiative, but you can audit courses for free or pay a relatively low ($39-$79 on average) priceIf cost is still a concern, you can apply for financial aid for many courses. And anyone at all can enroll in 100 Coursera courses for free — both job-related and not — until December 31 here.
If you plan to take many online classes this year, and they're covered by Coursera Plus, you may want to look into the Coursera annual membership ($399/year) to save money in the longterm.
This isn't the only program of its kind that Coursera is offering to support recovery and skill development throughout the pandemic. The site is giving students with a .edu email access to 90% of its site until September 30, 2020 to empower remote learning, especially as students try to gain valuable experience and skills at the same time many internships are being canceled.

en | N/A | N/A | Interesting attack on minor dwellings from a local councollor.
New Lynn councillor Derek Battersby believes a loophole in the council's district plan is being exploited by developers.
Rules allow people to build minor household units to accommodate family members.
Waitakere city councillor Mr Battersby says the provisions are being taken advantage of.
He says developers are using the rules to create "dogboxes" and selling the properties for profit.
"The reason for minor household units was to allow people to have members of their family living with them, such as grandparents," he says.
"But in most cases it's just developers making a quick buck.
"We've allowed dogbox houses to be built on the front of properties."
A minor household unit must be no bigger than 65 square metres in gross floor area.
Mr Battersby says the problem is evident citywide.
"There's a number of cases where thiat has happened," he says. "The district plan needs to be reviewed.
"I have no problem with infill housing but it's a matter of how you manage it."
Planning and regulatory committee chairwoman Vanessa Neeson says she is willing to look at the issue.
"If that's the case we need to have a good look at the rules and how they are being applied," she says.
"I'm open to all suggestions.
"If it's not working and people are exploiting it, we need to do something about it."
Council spokeswoman Liz Mahoney says there have been district plan provisions for minor household units since 1988, before west Auckland's local body authorities amalgamated.
I would love to know his definition of a 'dogbox'. I also suggest he views one of the Hybrid MDs that I have been building... It is a better quality property than much of the existing stock of houses in West Auckland! Perhaps thats why we get decent rents for them?
I think he is most likely refering to some of the cheap and nasty boxes built by some though! They also will achieve lower rents (and valuations) for their owners too.
I agree Kieran. I have seen some very cheap garage style minor dwellings. |
en | N/A | N/A | Great leather jackets, and shimmery make-up that doesn’t make you look like a Kardashian | Post Magazine | South China Morning Post
How to choose a leather biker, racer or varsity jacket (but never a blazer); plus blushes with just the right amount of sparkle
You’ll never convince me to wear leather pants, but I have been looking for a leather jacket for ages. Guidelines?
Got to Calf It, Sheung Wan
The Dictator rules: Believe me, I don’t want to see you in leather pants. As for jackets, pay attention. The edgy biker jacket, devised to protect motorcyclists, has an asymmetric or diagonal zip closure, large collar and notched lapel with snap buttons, and a belted waist. It’s easy to find but not to wear.
Saint Laurent captures the attitude in its plain but luxe leather biker jackets (from HK$35,500). Claudie Pierlot’s black leather bikers come with or without quilting (HK$5,190 to HK$6,160). Topshop makes them real or faux to suit all budgets (HK$559 to HK$1,899). The racer jacket, featuring a short stand-up collar and straight, centred zip, is generally sleeker and more elegant. Massimo Dutti’s are gorgeous in black or brown leather (HK$2,590), part of a surprisingly broad leather jacket collection. Alice & Olivia’s comes with gold hardware (HK$8,750). Loose zippered bomber, varsity or baseball jackets are still popular, too. Helmut Lang does the look justice in black lambskin (HK$14,400; Lane Crawford), while Coach takes a playful approach (from HK$8,150). Gucci’s this season is a classic on the front with a beaded and bejewelled tiger head on the back (HK$49,000).
Beyond those, the possibilities are only limited by your imagination and bank account. Burberry has re-imagined its trench as a leather jacket (HK$26,500). Céline has a puffy, black “paper-weight” calfskin cape with ruched edges for a mere HK$38,000. Just avoid the leather blazer, or risk looking like a 90s mobster.
I’ve always been afraid shimmery make-up would make me look like a Kardashian. However, I saw someone with slightly sparkly cheeks that looked nice. Do they sell that sort of blush or is it a trick?
The Dictator: Really going out on a limb, aren’t you? It’s best to exercise restraint with make-up. Nothing is less attractive than a face covered in “beauty” products, except maybe a face covered in spots. Start by covering up blemishes and uneven skin tone with natural-looking foundation and concealer. There are blushes made with particles that reflect light, such as super luxury brand Clé de Peau’s Blush Duo with a light-deflecting, soft-shine formula and a semi-matte formula, in five different shades (HK$530; Sogo). It moisturises with argan oil, too. Nars does a duo compact in multiple colours, including some frosted tones (HK$370; Sogo). A trick of the trade every make-up lover should have is the Nars Multiple stick (HK$380), an all-in-one make-up miracleto highlight eyes, cheeks, lips and body, and available in a variety of shimmering shades.
In the realm of multi-purpose make-up, there are some fabulous, versatile compacts. Bobbi Brown’s famous Shimmer Brick and less well known Brightening Finishing Powder (HK$420; Sogo) are composed of different shimmery shades that mix together with a sweep of the brush. None of this is new, ladies. A cunning alternative is to use a frosted lipstick or eyeshadow already in your arsenal.
Just as important as the product, though, is the application. Every face is configured differently, but to apply, try starting at the apples of your cheeks (smile to find them, and never apply past your laugh lines), then blend, blend, blend outwards. |
en | N/A | N/A | Cardi B and Kulture Attended her fourth Birthday Party Dressed In Matching Mermaid Costumes.
like a mermaid, like a mother! The lovely pair were dressed to the nines in adorable mermaid outfits as Cardi B celebrated her daughter Kulture’s fourth birthday in style.
On Sunday, the “Up” singer shared a slideshow of adorable photos from the lavish events—which also included husband Offset and their 10-month-old son, Wave—on Instagram.
With the photographs, the cute birthday girl is sporting a red hair color, a mesh top covered in sea shells, and a pearlescent mermaid tale skirt.
Cardi, meanwhile, wears an outfit with a similar mermaid concept but it is much more in her personal style.
I got your back, your front, and your sides …..BIG 4, the pleased mother captioned the adorable slideshow with a message for her young daughter.
In an interview with Vogue Singapore earlier this week, Cardi discussed why she has never hired a babysitter despite having intended to do so before becoming a mother.
Everyone was quite anxious about my work and future, but I kept telling them that everything will be fine. I will have a nanny, and she will travel with me up and down, believe me. It won’t even be an inconvenience, she claims. “When the baby arrived, I was so scared that anyone other than my family would be around her that I couldn’t even consider hiring a babysitter. For Kulture, I’ve never employed a nanny.
RELATED POST: According to a royal expert, Kate Middleton has been modeling Princess Diana’s parenting style.
Cardi is aware of the help she receives from her husband and family, but she admits she doesn’t abuse her mother Clara Almánzar’s generosity by asking her to watch Kulture and Wave.
“Your parents have already grown up and lived their lives. They are older and lack the vigor of someone in their 20s, she claims. Because it’s my duty as a mother, I’m never far from my children.

en | N/A | N/A | Everything is quiet. There is no trouble here.
There will be no war. I wish to return.
In 1897 Frederick Remington, a newspaper cartoonist who had been sent to Cuba by William Randolph Hearst, Sr. to find a war, had cabled back to his boss in New York that he could find no war.
Unperturbed, Hearst nevertheless ordered him to stay in Cuba and assured him that he would be duly furnished with a war. The U.S. battleship Maine was forthwith blown up (Feb. 18, 1898) and, "By Jingo!" Remington had his war. Dewey took Manila and Theodore Roosevelt took Cuba. And meanwhile the pictures kept on coming.
Jim Gallagher of the New York Daily News cried in January 1980 with mixed anger and frustration once he had landed in Kabul and had found the city alive with cars, buses and trollies, and people hustling back and forth, but no soldiers, no "red animal war." The 200 or so other foreign correspondents stationed in Kabul's best hotel, the Intercontinental, were also just as confused, and couldn't tell him either.
Meanwhile Carter in Washington was clamoring for the press to ''build a chorus" of condemnation of the Soviets for "invading" Afghanistan, and the presumption was that Kabul, the capital, was now under armed occupation and the war was raging everywhere. Surely nobody can hide a whole war in our day total electronic surveillance the way Palmerston could in his? The army of foreign correspondents had come expecting to see it right there in front of them: how could you miss seeing tanks rushing against a terrified but heroically resisting populace? They had been told to expect to see Soviet soldiers, bullies in uniform, armed to the teeth, crowding the side walks, butting the sullen people out of the way, shooting down children — tyrants from the land of the working class!
Meanwhile the New York Daily News was champing at the bit: it wanted "pictures," and quickly. But where could you get them? Where was the war hiding? Kabul was as quiet as Sunday at home. How could you build a chorus when there were no notes to build it with?
I, too, came looking for a war. On my way to Kabul I read in my copy of the International Herald Tribune (ownpublished in Paris or, when Paris is on strike, in London — simulcasting itself in five other printing plants, as far off as Hong Kong) that since I landed in Kabul I would find no Afghan soldier with his own gun.
This is what I read on my plane: "Two travelers, arriving in New Delhi reported ... that the few Afghan soldiers that they had seen guarding the airport and public buildings in Kabul in the last two days... " — This was dated Jan. 9 and I arrived next morning — "were conspicuously unarmed. The travelers, both businessmen, said that this seemed to support reports that Afghan units had been disarmed." And this dispatch was datelined New Delhi.
The first thing I saw — almost falling into his arms — as I came down the steps of the plane that had just landed at Kabul airport (I checked to see that it was Kabul airport), drowsy-footed and grainy-eyed from a sleepless night's ride, was an Afghan soldier standing on the tarmac, his bayonet- gleaming rifle at ready. This bared bayonet made him seem conspicuously armed, I thought.
The second thing I saw when I entered the airport waiting room was another Afghan, but this one in civilian clothes though he was obviously no mere civilian. Whoever he was he carried a submachine gun slung over his shoulder as carelessly as a schoolboy slings his satchel of books. Nevertheless he looked conspicuously armed, and unmistakably Afghan.
So, with one foot hardly firmly planted on Kabul soil, I had experienced three surprises.
So it was the very first day. So it would be for the eight days I spent in Kabul in January, and for the almost two weeks I would spend there again in July: searching for a war, searching for the Russians, searching for an oppressed and tyrannized populace.
It was then that I made my first acquaintance with those extraordinary sources of information about Afghanistan whose reliability was to be as unquestioned as their anonymity was absolute: "travelers," "diplomats," "area specialists," "businessmen," "experts," all of whom managed to pass back and forth between Peshawar in Pakistan and Kabul in Afghanistan through the fiercest of battles, tank encirclements and an entire Soviet army encamped in Kabul itself, with greater ease than one can get past the guard at the New York Fifth Avenue library!
Later we will learn more precisely why newsmen were so coy about revealing the identity of their sources — why the "diplomat" they cited remained so tactfully unnamed and why, in fact, "Western diplomats" remained in Kabul at all, especially the Americans after the assassination of Ambassador Adolph Dubs in 1979.
Meanwhile we were in Kabul, and what is Kabul? It is a city of indeterinmate population — estimated at 800,000 to a million — and is tucked inside a valley of the Hindu Kush mountain range, some 1,800 kilometers above sea level. The city itself is between two "local" mountains, the Kohe Azama and the Kohe Sherdarwazah. A broad tree-lined avenue, the Maivand (paved, as were all of Kabul's main streets, by the [Soviets] in 1953), cuts the city in half: it was at Maivand that the Afghans had defeated the British in 1880.
The Kabul River runs through the valley almost up to the border with Pakistan where it turns off into the Peshawar Valley. The valley will take you to the Khyber Pass some 90 miles away where, if you're lucky — or unlucky — you will see a strange mime performed in a few weeks — in February — when a high official of the United States will pose there for the cameras of the world aiming a Chinese machine gun at where you are now standing!
You had read in the press that you would find Kabul choked with Russian tanks and you were prepared to find them, but found none: except when, pushing through the tangled, uncontrolled traffic, you broke into Revolutionary Square, and there it was: that "minimal" Russian tank.
It stood, unquestionably Russian but already congealed in arrested time, slightly greening as though with a first wash — history had been in too much of a hurry to add age. It is the first tank that led the assault on the palace on April 27, 1978 which toppled Prince Daoud, and now stands perched on a pedestal waiting for History.
We shall explore Kabul more carefully later. At the moment we can give its tourist attractions no more than a passing glance.
Though clashes would break out later-especially in February — as far as we could see in the first days of January Kabul was quiet, and no houses' danced. And yet, as we were aware, surface quiet was extraordinarily misleading. For though where we stood all was silence, around us the air was boiling with sound. We took to our transistors where we finally found the war we had been looking for.
We were watching a film whose sound was out of sync, not only with the lips of the performers but with the visible actions as well.
Men and women of over 150 nations at the U.N. were debating "facts" which, one would realize with growing clarity as time slipped by, had no tangibility. Afghanistan, the real Afghanistan of fact, of his old man on his burro coming into town to sell a bundle of firewood, did not exist. Some thing else had been created: a grotesque monster of the new Cold War, so recently disinterred from what had been hoped was its permanent grave, now superimposed over the reality. It was not so much Palmerston's "secret war" which he had managed to conduct out of sight This was something different — an ordered war, a war that was sent for and delivered. It was a war that started as fictional images on TV. A war that took place first in the imaginations of millions of Americans and so became a strange kind of fact after all. And only then did it become "real."
If there had been no intervention here by the West (i.e. the U.S.A.), there would have been no war at all.
The Afghans have a fierce game called Buzkhasi. Mounted on their marvelous horses (so admired by Alexander the Great), they chase a headless calf like a polo ball, which the horses kick from rider to rider, until finally one rider manages to snatch it up and deposit it, bloody, battered and use less, in the winner's circle: food only for dogs. Those correspondents who fell on Afghanistan that week in January and scourged the countryside in a desperate search to find the war that was already blazing in the newspaper headlines of the West were involved in a kind of fierce Buzkhasi of their own.
But instead of a headless calf it was the battered and bloody truth which they deposited in the winner's circle: food only for dogs.

en | N/A | N/A | Divination by numbers on the clock.
When a person searches for something specific on the Internet, for example, tea, children clothes or shoes, after a while the search engine begins to advertise this item actively. This is due to browser settings and human requests. But have you ever paid attention to the fact that under a certain vital request the universe sends signs in the same way? You begin to notice the word that is relevant to you among the phrases of passers-by or on advertising stands. The desired movie or important book appears in front of you. The world is starting to change. The same goes for numbers. Why is New Year's fortune-telling by clock time so popular? What do the same numbers on the dial say? What does it mean if you paid attention to some definite time on the clock? Today we will answer these questions.
Fortune-telling by the clock became popular even in those days when there was not even a mechanical clock. It is believed that by the same numbers you can predict your fate, and also that guardian angels can bring you warnings.
Since numbers are about numerology, and numerology is related to esotericism, this means that unexpectedly catching paired numbers is wonderful. It doesn’t seem to be unusual that you can see how the clock shows the same or mirrored numbers. After all, we all look at these same watches very often. But how often, quite by chance, do you see such a combination? Or vice versa, how often do you see the same numbers on the phone screen.
There are quite a lot of numbers meanings. Much also depends on personal calculations and life situations. A quick divination by the numbers on the clock can give advice on where to turn your attention or how the day will go. For a deeper analysis, it is worth studying each figure separately.
Morning meanings of clock time
Morning is a particularly powerful time in terms of the energy period, when all evil spirits collect their belongings, nature wakes up, and vital energy is activated.
- 06:06 on the clock predicts an invitation to a holiday, great news, or a meeting with a future partner if the person is currently single.
- The number 7 is very harmonious and mysterious. Seeing 07:07 on the clock is a good sign, everything a person has planned can come true, energy will prevail in his body. However, in some situations, the numbers can warn of difficulties with the law.
- The morning 08:08 on the clock reports a career. Soon there will be news about a promotion or an increase in salary. These numbers are related to money. If there is any debt, it will be returned.
- But zeros with nines advise, on the contrary, to be careful with the material. It is better to postpone shopping, it is worth putting things in order, both at home and at work. There is a great chance of losing something important or facing theft. The first half of the day can be very active, and after that a slight breakdown may follow.
- 10:01 on the clock means you should be very careful on the road; If you are going to travel in a company of people, check the first aid kit - you may need emergency help. The clock time 10:10 means that everything is going well, but you should not expect quick results.
- The number 1 always indicates human potential. The combination of 11:11 on the clock predicts that the future is not in the hands of man, it depends on someone else.
Daytime clock meaning
In the period from twelve o'clock till two in the afternoon, it is desirable to consume not only physical food, but also spiritual. If you come across a combination of some numbers during this period, then you should take it seriously.
- 12:12 on the clock draws your attention to the romantic realm of life. Relations with a partner will be very harmonious, fate will soon bring lonely people with an interesting personality. Also in the near future it is desirable to visit a spiritually filled place and feed on its energy.
- 12:21 on the clock advises paying more attention to yourself, your ideas and actions. With discipline, you will be able to achieve the desired heights.
- But 13:13 on the clock advises to save your strength. Some sources claim that this is a big battle with competitors. On the other hand, you just need not to talk about your plans and achievements.
- 13:31 on the clock are excellent numbers for the fulfillment of your long-standing desire. If this combination falls out often, then you should pay attention to the financial side - there may be losses.
In the afternoon, a person is in a more blissful state, his attention is somewhat slow and careless. During this period, different signs from the Angels can be sent.
- 14:14 on the clock. This meaning again refers to love. A person is very happy in his relationship, or he is ready for a new relationship. When this combination falls out constantly, you should not ignore this sign - we are talking about overwork and lack of rest.
- 15:15 on the clock – these excellent numbers predict important advice from the outside.
- The meaning of 15:51 on the clock indicates an interested person next to you.
- Combination 16:16 on the clock is considered a test of strength. There are difficulties ahead, you should be more careful.
- We are talking about a happy person if he noticed 17:17 on the clock. Luck really accompanies you.
Evening clock time meaning
Evening time refers to solitude and sensuality, during this period a person is especially receptive to the signs of the universe.
The 18:18 clock combination advises you to spend your time the way you want at the moment. It is worth distracting from everyday life, going for a walk, reading a book, or just staring at the ceiling.
Double 19 (19:19 on the clock) portends a large number of happy moments. It is important to pay attention to your planning.
The combination 20:02 on the clock indicates a large flow of creative ideas, excessive emotionality. You need to learn meditation practices so that everything is in harmony. But 20:20 on the clock speaks about stability. And it is important to watch what is being said, it can lead to conflicts.
- 21:12 on the clock portends pregnancy. Either a person will soon find out about this, or he will want to continue his family. They talk about a very big and deep love if you see the numbers 21:21 on the clock.
- Four deuces (22:22 on the clock) predict an energetically powerful event. It is impossible to predict which one, you need to be prepared for everything.
- 23:23 on the clock is directly related to personal connections. There can be a very entertaining person in your environment, or, on the contrary, quite an unpleasant one. Some love affairs may not end well.
- Fortune telling by the time 23:32 on the clock indicates the danger associated with a close, dear person. Try to pay as much attention to your family as possible.
- Those very cherished 00:00 on the clock, which are so often loved in the New Year, mean a new path, the birth of something new, the fulfillment of an important dream. Note - the dream should not touch someone's will.
Time meaning during the night period
All people have different regimes, someone works, someone goes to bed very late, or vice versa has insomnia. It is not easy to see paired numbers at night. If you see them all the time, this means a higher power is actively sending you a sign.
- 01:01 on the clock will bring good news, and divination by the time 01:10 on the clock means that at the moment forces are being invested in the wrong direction, there will be no result.
Is it 02:02 on the clock? This means a person can be in certain despondency and he should relax. In the same combination, you can expect an interesting offer from a loved one.
- 02:20 on the clock is dangerous time. You have to be very vigilant in all areas. After seeing the combination, the day can be quite stressful.
- At night, as many as three combinations with threes fall out. The time 03:03 on the clock indicates personal relationships, love and romantic pastime. In some cases, they can predict a coming wedding and pregnancy, but under condition that these numbers come across several times.
- 04:04 on the clock means something is tormenting a person greatly, the problem is constantly spinning in his head. Paired fours advise to look at the situation from the other side. Combinations with fours are not the best, 04:40 on the clock promise a bad day. And three fours (04:44 on the clock) generally advise to postpone all important things during the week - it is likely that the whole week will be unsuccessful.
- The time combination 05:05 on the clock reports some working difficulties. You do not manage to come to terms with someone or it may mean that someone spreads gossip. 05:50 on the clock portends cataclysms, a fire may occur or a neighbor will make a flood. But the magical time 05:55 on the clock indicates a significant meeting and concomitant luck.
In conclusion, an important rule must be said - do not try to deliberately catch the specified time, because its meaning will not come true. Signs for that are signs when they appear unexpectedly. After receiving the information, you should not transfer it to other persons, because it also affects the time meaning. Numerology is about the sacred. By studying it, you can change your life significantly. |
en | N/A | N/A | Which reminds me...Did I ever mention green cabbage leaves before?I'm pretty sure I didn't. Here we are at Cleveland Clinic, a pretty well known and respected hospital in the nation, and what is the remedy recommended by the lactation nurses when milk production is coming to an abrupt end?Green cabbage leaves. Some asked me if they gave me pills to take or what not. Nope. Just to use cabbage leaves to relieve the pressure and help the milk ducts. I'm going to have to talk to her Thursday about how this works, but let me tell you, it does. They also recommended to pump a few minutes here and there to take the edge off, especially at the beginning and all, which also helped. Not to keep the supply going, but just to relieve some pressure. It all has worked even though I didn't open my email about the cabbage leaves until later, but the thought of cabbage leaves just makes me smile. No meds or anything fancy...
Another one is: They were never able to get an IV in her at the ER. Would that have made a difference?Could they have been able to get meds into her to prevent this if they could've got that IV in?They even brought an ultrasound machine in the ER to help find her veins to get an IV in and couldn't do it. Why was she held so long at ACMC if they couldn't make things happen?Just stick her in an ambulance and take her over if the helicopter's not going to be here for another hour or 2. They even told us it would be that long when I asked when the transport would be here. I know I'm sounding riled up, even angry through typing when reading the printed word without hearing the intonation in my voice, but my tone is more of frustration than anything else. What if I brought her in an hour or more earlier?
God will get me and all of us through this. It's just going to take time. God brought me to Psalm 28 this morning. I think I'll close this morning with verses 6 and 7 of this chapter. It's going to be all right. Going to go put on some music, get ready and finish my dishes. I don't know about our picnic this morning since it's now finally raining, but we'll see what the day holds. Love you all! |

Set up a meeting with your chief of maintenance or general contractor and other trades to address several issues. Identify the critical parts of the building, such as boiler rooms, computer rooms, and electrical installations. Assign a priority to get to those areas and, when needed, restore or protect them first. Be sure to account for these areas as well so you’re not scrambling during the storm:

I also chaired a panel on The Transmedia Webseries (featuring papers by Aaron Hunter, Myles McNutt, and Louisa Stein) and led meetings for the Teaching Committee and the TV Studies SIG. Another highlight was the Participatory Pedagogy event, which I hope will be repeated in coming years.
My analysis focuses on two case studies: HBO and ABC Family. Specifically, I examine gay and lesbian visibility in the drama Looking (2014-) and in the primetime soap The Fosters (2013-) to investigate how sexual diversity in these programs contributes to HBO and ABC Family's brand maintenance. |
en | N/A | N/A | Bathrooms Stop Suiting Your Needs? 3 Reasons You Might Want To Remodel
When you bought your home, the bathrooms were perfect. They fit all of your family's needs, and there was nothing you would change. Now the years have gone by and you suddenly find that your needs are no longer being met with your current bathrooms. Take a look at some of the features that you can remodel your bathrooms with.
A Jack and Jill Bathroom
Two bathrooms was plenty when you bought your home. However, now you have a few kids and your current bathroom situation just isn't cutting it anymore. Now is the perfect time to add a new bathroom, or simply remodel the one you already have.
If you have two kids sharing the same bathroom, making it into a jack and jill bathroom would be a great way to make sharing a bit easier. Jack and jill bathrooms allow access through two separate doors to bedrooms. This will allow both of your kids to feel like they have their own bathroom. A remodeling contractor will be able to remodel your bathroom into a jack and jill one for you.
Becoming an empty nester is the perfect time to remodel your bathrooms. Not only will you be able to turn the second bathroom into a guest bathroom, you'll also be able to turn your bathroom into the sanctuary you've always wanted. There are a couple of additions that would have you and your guests relaxing in luxury.
Whirlpool Bathtub. Get rid of that old tub that has seen better days, and replace it with a new tub. There's nothing better than soaking in a whirlpool bathtub. Now that you don't have little ones to listen out for, you'll be able to take full advantage of your new tub.
Sauna Shower. If you don't like taking showers, it might be because you've never experienced a sauna shower. Turn your bathroom into the perfect place to relax by having a sauna shower installed in your bathroom.
If your water bill keeps going up each month, it might be due to the outdated fixtures you have in your bathroom. That old toilet could be wasting a lot of water. Your old toilets could be using up to 7 gallons each time they're flushed. Install new toilets and they'll only use about 1.6 gallons. Don't forget to change out all the fixtures when you update your old bathroom.
Whether you're upsizing, downsizing, or just want a change, now is the perfect time to remodel your bathrooms. Speak to a contractor about designing the perfect bathroom for your particular lifestyle needs. |
en | N/A | N/A | To determine the nanomechanical properties of the four bacterial strains of interest in this study, force-distance curves were recorded, converted into force-indentation curves, and subsequently analyzed according to eqs 4 and 5 for determining the bacterial spring constant, related to the inner Turgor pressure of the cell, and the Young modulus that reflects cell surface elasticity/rigidity. Also, use of 3D force volume mode rendered possible the generation of spatial distribution of Young Modulus (elasticity map) at the bacterial surface. Fig 4 shows these elasticity maps for the four cells (a, b, c and d) in 1 mM KNO3 solution, together with the dispersion in Young modulus values as determined within the spatial region indicated by the white windows on the elasticity maps. Also, for the sake of illustration, typical force-indentation curves are given for each strain and were found to be in agreement with the force-indentation relationship expected from Sneddon model (eq 5), thereby rendering possible determination of Young moduli. Consistent with the work of Gaboriaud et al. [65], the force curves recorded on cell surfaces exhibit a non-linear regime at low loading forces (eq 5) followed by a linear regime for higher forces (eq 4). Bacterial spring constant values, kcell, wereforce-versus-piezo displacement curves as described in Material & Methods section. |

en | N/A | N/A | Okay, now that you have a language, you've mastered its basic aspects, you've created smaller projects not related to gaming, what you want to do is build up your proficiency with tackling smaller projects. For example, if you want to make a client-based game, why not makes tic-tac-toe first?That's a very simple one. Tetris clone?Sure!(Just don't call it *tris - it's a trademark.) Alien invaders?Asteroids?Or maybe a side-scroller (similar to mario)?
Q: Do I have to take classes to learn all this?
Q: Are there free technologies or will everything cost me money?
Q: Are there any free graphical libraries?
Q: Is it really so much work just to make a game?
Maxium0CarMeX agrees : Very informational!
Maxium0CarMeX agrees : Nice Breakdown!
Now I want to go learn C/C++. Shouldn't be tooo difficult once I learn syntax?
I'd assume I'd start with command line programs to learn syntax. Then GUI?
A) How hard is it to then GUI with windows and C?Any traps/pitfalls to fall into here?
B) My main question, when would you recommend I try my first 'game project'?Right after GUI?Anything else I need to know?What sort of knowledge would you think I would need to know to make a graphical tic-tac-toe?
A) Depends really. Playing with Windows APIs having never done so before is difficult but there are other alternatives...
B) Sure, tic-tac-toe is a fine first game. What sort of knowledge?
Is there not prgram's out there that make the programming easier. Surely you could get off a "first" project without have to competely do line by line C/C++?
you can start with a good engine though right?
Also quick questions here. I have a book and I'm reading about Java. When one makes games with Java do you mean regular Java or the Java Platform?Also do I need to learn languages such as PHP to turn a regular game onto an online game?Could one theoretically make a games with just Perl Java and Python?(Is Perl even necessary?
Btw while I'm asking..any good colleges people recommend for game development programming? |

en | N/A | N/A | Without Bullets Achievement / Trophy | Just Cause 3
Without Bullets is an achievement in Just Cause 3. To unlock it, you’ll have to destroy every Chaos object in a military base without using weapons, grenades or planted explosives. This means you’ll have to rely on your grappling hook on Without Bullets trophy in Just Cause 3.
How to unlock Without Bullets JC3 achievementTgunning for this trophy:
- Only military bases count – no settlements or outposts.
- If you’ve already cleared much of the bases, you can wait until you finish the story – they’ll reset after the last story mission.
- The Vis Electra base is a good choice. There aren’t many soldiers defending it, and the objects are few as well.
- You can see how many more Chaos objects are left by checking the icons in the upper left corner.
- Make sure you use only the tethers from your grappling hook. Attach the objects to either the ground or explosive barrels and vehicles, then activate them.
- Sometimes you’ll need more than one tether to pull an object.
This achievement is bugged on Xbox one. You can’t get it on any base. Yet another reason games are way overpriced. This game is solid. 7/10, but with the 5 minute load times and 6 min on pc, with the buggy gameplay, from not registering vehicles u drop on a garage to not registering completed quests this is just a huge sandbox of shit. When it does work it’s very fun to play. This “walkthrough” however is obviously missing a lot of info…
-What if an enemy destroys a chaos object with a chopper/tank missile?
-When you have rebel support can you use that since you’re not using a gun/grenade/planted explosive?
If you die during the capture all your progress is moot and you can no longer get the achievement.
-what if I fling a car into a chaos object and it explodes, does that count?
Mayne if you’re gonna write a walkthrough, try to actually walk us through it instead of half assing it by simply refrasing the achievement description. Smh.
Bugged on PS4 as well!
Thanks for the help! I was wondering ways to complete this! |
