First, you should know that<<
Thanks for taking the walk over, Father. Although today didn’t turn out the way I’d prayed, this was fine compensation.
Wow – those really are very good shots from inside St. Peter’s! I’ve tried taking pictures in there with a digital camera before, and it really is difficult without a tripod.
Still, I think we should be thankful for this. Also for the return of the tiara, and proper robes for St. Peter’s statue. I think it might be a sign that the liberals at St. Peters’ have lost. (Maybe Marini won’t be back for another term??)
I have one question though. Looking at the Papal altar, I see beautiful tall gold candlesticks, three on either side and cross in the middle, like for the Tridentine Latin Mass. Why is it then, that the altar is not decorated like this usually when the Pope says Mass there? Usually the tall golden candlesticks are on the side, and so is the cross. Lately they’ve used these horrible black candlesticks with thich squat candles that look like the yellow citronella candles we burn Summertimes on the deck at our house in Avalon, NJ. on hot nights to keep mosquitos away. Point is, alittle of this pomp would be nice for Papal Masses too.
Beautiful photos as always; thank you, Father!
Beautiful pictures, Father.
How in the world did they light all those candles and keep them lit?
great pictures ! c’ est magnifique !
Father, magnificent shots of St. Peter’s! I love the decoration on his chair and
Very nice! You are making me a little bit jealous as I wish I could be in Rome.
I now have another entry on griccia.
I am confused. What was it that was torn out that was bronze by the famed artist???
It was Bernini’s altar that was demolished and carted away a few year’s ago. It wasn’t made of bronze, though. It’s the grand baldachin that encases and glorifies the ancient Chair of the Popes (traditionally a chair that St. Peter actually sat in) that is bronze.

en | N/A | N/A | Large cap technology shares have been on a tear in 2020, picking up where they left off in 2019. A strong showing from Microsoft, Apple, Google and Amazon which are responsible for about 17% of the S&P 500, have generated approximately 70% of the index’s gain in 2020. Their strong start to the year has helped propel the S&P 500 to 10 record-high in 2020. The gains in this group of stocks has not gone unnoticed, especially by the US President Donald Trump. Despite the robust gains in US stocks, there have been mixed results for equities across the globe.
US President Donald Trump is very fond of describing the returns of the stock market as a way of describing his job approval. In early February the President touted the MAGA stocks as reflective of a strong stock market. Trump is reflecting on a group of st year. Trump said that owning these stocks withing the S&P 500 index over the past year means that 401Ks that are owned by regular individuals are outperforming due to his policies. He referred to these companies as the trillion-dollar club.
During the past 12-months, stock trading has been upbeat as the S&P 500 index has rallied nearly 30%, driven by huge gains in the MAGA stocks. Amazon and Google are up a robust 33% and 32% respectively, while Microsoft is up a robust 72% and Apple is up a whopping 89%. This trend could easily continue in 2020 as the multiples these stocks are trading at are low relative to history. They also have new growth drivers such as the cloud for Microsoft and Amazon and 5G for Apple and Amazon.
Despite the strong returns in the US markets, the uptrend is not universal. Strong liquidity has driven investors into dollar denominated assets, helping to buoy the US dollar and drive US equities higher. US bonds have also experienced robust gains. US bond prices have rallied, and yields have declined. Unfortunately, Chinese equities have experienced downward pressure on the wake of the spread of the coronavirus. The Shanghai compositive is down more than 4% year to date compared to the S&P 500 index which is up 4% year to date.
European shares have been mixed as capital flows have exited from the EU. Concerns about the European economy has pushed the euro to its weakest level against the dollar since 2017. Impacts from the coronavirus are likely to send Germany into recession. Also weighing on sentiment is a lingering succession battle at the top of the German government.
It appears that growth in the US could stall in the Q1, dropping down to 1.2% but then rebounding in the Q2 of 2020. Part of the decline can be associated to the slow implementation of the phase 1 deal between the US and China which is likely to be delayedPhase 1 China deal in testimony Wednesday before the Senate. Mnuchin said that while there is likely to be some slowdown in the Chinese economy, they would need another 2 to 4-weeks to evaluate the impact of the virus.

en | N/A | N/A | Vaccines. Autism. Controversy. ircles - do vaccines cause autism? If not, what causes autism? Why is it on the rise? And what is autism anyway?
This special excerpt from Baby 411 answers these questions and more, with advice from Dr. r (ASD)is really a collection of several disorders that have three abnormal areas in common: social skills, communication skills, and repetitive or obsessive traits. There's a broad range from mildly to severely affected. Specialists use the terms ASD and Pervasive Developmental Disorders (PDD) interchangeably. And, to get even more confusing, are other categories that fall under the ASD heading.
Asperger's Syndrome: These childrenave trouble reading social cues and making conversation. Asperger's kids often obsess about certain interests.
Q. I've heard autism is on the rise. Why?
To answer succinctly the essence of the rest of the article written by Dr's Fields, is that while there may be some possible genetic markers that have been associated with autism, there are no studies which give any real evidence of an association between autism and vaccines, a causal or even a correlational relationship. There may be many factors, as in many disorders, that might be responsible for a child's autism, however, it wouldn't seem as if vaccines are the reason. |

The North South Bypass Tunnel will not cost ratepayers any more than the $773 million already tabled despite a number of unsettled land compensation claims, Lord Mayor Campbell Newman promised yesterday.
Cr Newman said any unresolved resumptions would not blow out the project costs.
The toll is expected to be indexed to CPI, increasing each year.
However, ratepayers will not have to pay more than the $503 million due in 2010 to complete the construction of Brisbane's first fully-underground road tunnel, despite unsettled land resumptions, Cr Newman said.
Around $200 million of this $503 million will come from a loan n terms of land resumptions I must confess that I am not up on the absolute detail where we are - there will still be matters that will need to be resolved in terms of compensation - I am quite sure of that," Cr Newman said.
Some land owners are taking legal action to resolve their claims against the project, he said.
"And Council is required to pay a cheque of around $503 million on completion of the work. It is a contribution for what is deemed to be council works and that cheque is paid to the (RiverCity Motorway) consortium."
Cr Newman accused the ALP of misleading people on the true cost of the North South Bypass Tunnel, reminding ratepayers that the ALP voted for the project.
"They talk about a $3 billion tunnel," Cr Newman said.
Cr Newman yesterday released an assessment by accounting firm BDO Kendalls of his $463 million in election promises over the next four years, which includes $336 million in new pledges.
Cr Newman estimated $340 million could be found through savings in council processes, through revenue growth estimated at 2.8 per cent and 1.5 per cent in annual growth.
Meanwhile, ALP candidate Greg Rowell is expected to an assessment of his campaign promises tomorrow.
The final debate between Cr Newman, Mr Rowell and Greens mayoral candidate Jo Bragg will be held at 12pm today at City Hall. |

en | N/A | N/A | Conservation treatment of Haydn's The Seven Last Words of Our Savior on The Cross (Cary 508) | The Morgan Library & Museum
This post was created by Justine Provino, Pine Tree Foundation Post Graduate Fellow in Book Conservation in consultation with Maria Fredericks, Drue Heinz Book Conservator and Acting Director of the Thaw Conservation Center.

In 1786, the Clergy of the Cadiz cathedral in Spain commissioned Joseph Haydn (1732–1809) to compose The Seven Last Words of our Saviour on the Cross. In 1791, a copyist’s manuscript of the full orchestral score, with annotations by Haydn himself was prepared for a series of concerts to be held in London. The score was bound into two separate volumes, each with a brown calfskin leather spine and marbled paper sides.
The manuscript entered the Morgan Library & Museum in 1968 as part of the Mary Flagler Cary collection of manuscripts, letters, and printed scores. By this time, both volumes had been extensively repaired using poor-quality materials, resulting in deteriorated bindings and fragile pages that could not be safely handled.
A pre-digitization survey of the music manuscript collection in 2008 drew attention to the poor condition of the Haydn manuscript and its bindings. The leather spines had been replaced with a modern synthetic material, and what remained of the original leather was desiccated and powdery. The 18th-century marbled paper used on the covers was soiled and abraded, while the paperboard covers themselves were delaminating. The sewing in each volume was broken in many areas. Many pages of the score itself were dirty and torn, and had been repaired with stiff machine-made paper that was not compatible with the original. Microchemical testing revealed the presence of unstable iron ions in the brown iron-gall ink used to write the manuscript. These ions accelerate acidic deterioration of both ink and paper. After consultation with the curator, conservators made the decision to disbind the manuscript so that both the paper textblocks and their bindings could be brought to a stable and usable condition. After removal of the damaging prior repairs, the pages were immersed in an alkaline solution of deionized water and calcium hydroxide to reduce acidic components in the paper and the ink. The textblocks were then digitized and stored unbound with the untreated covers until 2015, when a full rebinding treatment was begun.

Rebinding started with the attachment of new Japanese paper guards to the spine edge of each paper leaf, using wheat starch paste to reinforce the spine folds for sewing. The two volumes were re-sewn, using flax cords as the supports. The re-sewn spines were lined with long-fibered Japanese paper, then with natural linen fabric, leaving an overhanging flange on each side. This flange was used to help attach the textblock to the new covers later in the conservation process.

To save the original 18th-century marbled cover papers, the old brittle paperboards were peeled away in layers from the reverse, using a combination of dry and wet techniques. The marbled paper was faced with Japanese paper and paste to keep it together during this phase of treatment. Once freed from the old paperboard, the marbled papers were placed face down on a sheet of Tek-Wipe® (polyester and cellulose non-woven textile) supported by a Plexiglas® "slant board". Warm deionized water and gentle brushing was used to remove adhesive and paperboard residues from the verso. The facing was then removed from the recto of the marbled paper. During this process, the hand written labels were released, revealing the brilliant, unfaded original colors of the marbled paper below.

This paper was weak with many losses, and a lightweight Japanese paper lining was needed to add strength and flexibility to the original cover material. The lining paper was toned with acrylic paint to blend with the ovreall tone of the faded marbled paper.

New cover boards were built by laminating a 4-ply rag board core between sheets of a smooth, soft, cotton rag paper. Holes were punched in the covers and the linen cord sewing supports were laced through to form the attachment.
A strip of brown vegetable-tanned calfskin, similar in color to the original leather, was used to cover the spine. The lined marbled paper and the original paper title labels were mounted onto the new covers to complete the binding.

This time- and labor-intensive approach to treatment preserves the material authenticity of Haydn’s score, creating two conservation bindings that retain as much as possible of the original material while making the score safe to handle and display. Although the acidic boards and the original leather were too deteriorated to save, the 18th century marbled papers and handwritten labels were mounted onto new structures that were carefully designed to open flat, without undue flexing of the fragile manuscript leaves.Thanks to comprehensive digital imaging which has provided online access to the manuscript's content and conservation treatment that answers the long-term preservation of the artifact itself, scholars and exhibition visitors may now experience the score in both digital and material forms.

"The outcome of the conservation treatment of the Haydn manuscript is truly stunning. Not only has the manuscript's appearance been miraculously rejuvenated, but most importantly it can be easily handled now without fear of stressing the original."

en | N/A | N/A | HomeCar NewsHyundai i20 N Line Takes On The Gata Loops In Ladakh -...
It is to be noted that the i20 N Line is the first N Line model which India will be receiving. This further opens up the possibility of having more N Line trims coming in from Hyundai’s stable in the future. Bookings of i20 N Line have officially opened from today.
What enthusiasts might miss upon would be the performance focused N range from Hyundai, which includes mechanical changes and makes the cars a lot more agile and sportier. It remains to be seen if the N range will ever come to India or not.
Talking about the N Line, it brings in a sportier and funkier feel to the i20, however brings almost no mechanical changes. The sporty feel of the N Line starts right from the front. It gets a front grille with a chequered flag pattern and an N-Line badge. Other major highlights of the i20 N Line include new dual-tone alloys, faux diffuser at rear bumper, dual exhaust tailpipe, gloss black inserts on the air scoop, deep-set fog lamp housing at front, sporty colour options with a contrasting roof colour.
Suspension have been retuned for better performance around the corners. Braking power has been improved, thanks to all four discs. Exhaust sound has also been modified. Take look at the new Hyundai i20 N Line in the official TVC video below, where it shows it performance by taking on the Gata Loops in Ladakh.
Available exterior monotone colour options include Titan Grey, Fiery Red, Polar White and Thunder Blue. The latter is an all new colour option for the i20 in India, and is exclusive to the N Line. Dual tone options are on offer with Red and Blue, with Black roof. On the inside too, the i20 N Line gets sporty cosmetic highlights like bucket-style front seats, bespoke steering wheel, N branded upholstery, metal pedals, prominent red highlights and a leather stitched gear lever.
The i20 N Line will be offered in two different trim levels, N6 and N8. The N6 will come along with only a 6-speed iMT gearbox while the N8 trim will be available with both iMT and a 7-speed DCT autoWhat you get, are paddle shifters with the DCT option.
One single engine option, the 3 cylinder 1 litre GDI turbo petrol motor which churns out 118 hp and 172 Nm of max torque will be offered as standard. The N6 trim is technically based upon the Sportz trim while the N8 DCT and N8 iMT will be based upon the Asta (O) and Asta trims of the standard i20.
Hyundai hasn’t revealed the exact price of the i20 N Line as of now. Launch of the N Line is expected to take place in September’21. Pricing is expected to cost around INR 80K – 1 lakh higher than the standard trims of the i20. Current top-of the line i20 Asta (O) costs INR 11.4 lakhs (ex-showroom). Currently, there is almost no direct competition to the i20 N Line.
Even in terms of pricing, the standard i20 sits on the far-end of the price spectrum and hence with the addition of the N Line trim, there will be no other model which will be a direct rival to the hot-hatch at that price point.
However, customers will land up evaluating the i20 N Line vs multiple compact and sub compact SUVs as well, solely due to the expected pricing. After the launch of the i20 N Line, Hyundai is expected to bring in the Casper, which will be a direct rival to the soon to be launched Tata Punch. |

en | N/A | N/A | The revived 8-Series is a surprise package.
BMW needed a new hero, so it revived the 8-Series badge that had been dormant since 1999.
This is the flagship of the Bavarian brand’s range, replacing the old 6-Series and sitting about the smaller, less powerful Z4 convertible (which shares its underpinnings with the new Toyota Supra.
We’re driving the current top-of-the-range model, the M850i xDrive – which means its powered by the brand’s V8 engine, has all-wheel drive and a few tweaks from M Division to ensure it goes as fast as it looks.
That’s because this is meant to be a proper sports car, unlike the 6-Series that ended up as more of a grand tourer. The M850i is designed to go head-to-head with the Porsche 911 Carrera – at least until the M8 arrives in early 2020.
More so than perhaps any other BMW ever. That may sound like a big call given the brand’s long history in motor racing (especially touring cars) but the M850i was developed at the same time as the M8 GTE race car. In fact, the M8 GTE hit the track months before the road car was finished and ready to be revealed to the public.
Engineers from the motorsport program fed information back to the 8-Series development team that the company claims helped fine-tune the body structure, driveline and suspension. The company claims the end result is a genuine sports car.
To ram home the connection between the two cars, the production 8-Series was unveiled to the public at the 2018 24 Hours of Le Mans.
BMW has simplified its engine line-up in recent years and the 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 is the go-to for its bigger performance cars. Not only does it power the M850i you’ll find it in the 7-Series, 5-Series, X5, X6 and X7.
But just because it’s shared around that doesn’t mean it’s unsuitable for the job. Tuned to produce 390kW of power and 750Nm of torque it has so much grunt it makes you wonder how the M8 is going to be significantly faster.
From the outside the M850i looks like a big car, but when you put your foot down it launches with the kind of ferocity you expect from something smaller and lighter. All that torque shoves you back in your seat and keeps the speedo needle racing around the dial until you reign yourself in.
Because pM Sport rear differential it feels effortless. There’s no wheelspin or clunky shifts, just a buttery smooth delivery of all that performance.
And it makes a sensational noise doing it, a refined V8 growl that speaks to BMW’s heritage. But it’s only there when you need it, when you stand on the throttle and unleash the horses. Cruising around town the gearbox finds a high gear and the engine just quietly ticks along.
A claimed combined urban/highway average of 10.4-litres per 100km is realistic when driven sensibly. But if you unleash the engine expect to be a regular visitor to the bowser.
BMW weren’t fooling around when they said the M8 GTE helped shape the development of the M850i. Aside from the motorsport engineers feeding information on the suspension and drivetrain, the 8-Series features a carbon fibre transmission tunnel that helps make the car stiffer, which helps responsiveness, while cutting some weight.
It’s clear when you drive the new 8-Series that it’s benefited from some high-quality tuning because it turns sharper and with more responsive than you’d rightfully expect such a large car.
I’ll admit that before I drove it I expected a grand tourer, something comfortable but powerful for a lazy weekend drive in the countryside. But having spent a week in M850i I was ready to go hunting twisty mountain roads. The steering is nicely sorted and the combination of the adaptive M suspension, as well as the massive tyres, helps make the car handle corners with the ease of a smaller machine.
The M850i feels built for a fast flowing racetrack like Phillip Island. It would make light work of the Gardner Straight but would equally have no trouble tackling the Hairpin or Lukey Heights.
It’s more luxury coupe than sports car inside, with plenty of leather and hi-tech equipment; such as an excellent infotainment system and adjustable ambient lighting. It feels suitably premium for what is one of the most expensive models in BMW’s range. The leather is high quality, as are the metallic trim elements. But the standout item is the gear selector, which is designed to look like cut glass.
The seats are sporty and comfortable with plenty of support when you throw the M850i into some corners. On paper it’s a 2+2 but in reality even kids need to be crammed into the back seats, so if you need room for four buy an M5.
At just over $270k the M850i isn’t cheap, that’s more money than a Porsche 911 Carrera S and a Mercedes-AMG GT. But it not only holds its own against those cars, in many respects it out-performs them. The BMW is easier to live with than either of those two rivals while still boasting sports car levels of performance and handling, so it’s hard to argue the M850i isn’t good value.
Lots of cars claim to be a ‘Porsche 911 fighter’ but few can actually live up to it. The M850i may not be quite as good as the German sports car’s benchmark but it exceeded this reviewer’s expectations with its sharp handling. Add to that the bonkers engine performance and you have a very tempting sports car proposition.
Ultimately, the Porsche is the better pick but you couldn’t blame anyone for becoming besotted by this big coupe. |

en | N/A | N/A | Rachel Corsie: Scotland still haven't dealt with 'unique and horrible' World Cup exit
Rachel Corsie (C) after the Argentina game. (Photo by Marcio Machado/Getty Images)
It's been eight months since Scotland crashed out of the World Cup in heartbreaking fashion. It takes longer than that to get over such trauma…
By 11pm, everything had collapsed. And not just collapsed, but collapsed in the cruelest fashion: Argentina pulled one back through a neat Milagros Menendez finish, then Lee Alexander was wrong-footed by a Florencia Bonsegundo effort that hit the bar and went in off the Scotland keeper. Then the real pain started.
Injury-time was well underway when Sophie Howard lunged in on Aldana Cometti: initially there was nothing from the referee, but eventually she consulted with the VAR monitor and pointed to the spot. Bonsegundo stepped up, and not only did Alexander save the initial kick but she beat away the rebound too.
Eight months have passed since that night. Are the Scotland team over it yet?
"I had a meeting today with Shelley Kerr, and that came up," Scotland captain Rachel Corsie told the Totally Scottish Football Show this week, still with an element of disbelief in her voice. "I actually don't think many of us have truthfully dealt with it. It was a blessing that we immediately had qualifiers for the Euros, that were about four or five weeks later. I was also in the middle of my US season so I virtually jumped on a plane and flew straight back and was involved in club football.
"In a way that was good at the time because it didn't allow you to feel the full emotional, overwhelming feelings that were there. But at the same time I'm a little bit nervous that at one point in time it's all going to come to a head.
"I think it's one of these things in life and sport that you go through disappointments, and there's no real way to explain it. It was unique and horrible."
It's tricky to turn that sort of situation into any sort of positive, but could they? Did it act as a bonding experience?
"I don't think it necessarily brought us closer: we have a really great group who are really close, which I think is even unique in a club environment, so to have it with an international team is even more rare.
"We all have a lot of self-belief, we have some great players at the moment: it's one of these spells where the youngsters coming through have all matured at a time where there are four or five players [who can deliver]. In one game it might be Caroline Weir who does something spectacular, then it's Erin Cuthbert, Kim Little, Claire Emslie – there are so many who can individually change a game who are all coming into their prime at once.
"That's really exciting, and it's something that motivates us and keeps us encouraged, and keeps us driving forwards. We're so desperate to qualify for the Euros again this time round: we have a favourable group, and we believe we can get through that."
Ah yes, the Euros. Qualification has started well, with 5-0 and 8-0 gubbings over Albania and Cyprus respectively already in the bag, but it sounds like both the World Cup disappointment and the quality in the squad is providing inspiration for the tournament in 2021.
Further encouragement is provided by the recent announcement that Celtic have joined Rangers in making their women's team fully professional, and while that might not mean that young Scottish players will automatically play at home, Corsie thinks there will inevitably be some positive benefits.
"I'm intrigued to how that translates and how it looks. 'Professional' has a lot of different meanings I think, and it will be interesting to see what parameters they put in place to promote their programme. We need that to happen, but I think similarly to men's football, England and abroad may always be appealing.
"But one of the major things is having a professional league in Scotland, it does allow youngsters, little girls and boys, to dream of growing up and playing professionally. When I was growing up, I didn't really think about that: I loved football so I watched men's football.
"That was great, and I've got to where I've got to, but it will be really helpful and encouraging. We'll have more interest in the sport, and if there's more interest there are more people playing, and the more people playing you have more chance of more quality and so forth. Hopefully that will open a lot of doors, and allow players coming through in the net five, ten, 20 years to achieve things far beyond what we've achieved.

en | N/A | N/A | Month: April 2012 The Story Cottage April 27, 2012 ~ writerlyderv ~ Leave a comment I arrived there fresh from a Masters in Journalism which hadn’t proved quite the golden career ticket I’d originally imagined. I’d dutifully sent out my CVs and Cormac McConnell, an old-school journalist, was one of the few to reply. He was Head of News at a local radio station and invited me down for a week’s trial. When I asked what accommodation was available, he told me I could stay with himself and his wife, at the aforementioned cottage.
Cormac met me at the bus station, a glorious stereotype of a journalist: white beard, cigarette in hand, coffee at the ready. In true journalistic style, he shot straight from the hip. Within minutes, he told me he couldn’t give me a job, because he needed someone who could see well enough to chase ambulances around the back roads of Co. Clare. But during that week, he taught me how to tell my own story and I still think of that week as one of the greatest in my life.
On my last day, a man rang in with some trifling complaint about traffic. In the course of his chat, he let slip that he was a cycling postman. Cormac seized on this gem and tapped into a story about a way of life that’s now almost extinct. The man’s father had been a cycling postman and his grandfather had been a walking postman. The man painted a vivid portrait of men braving all weathers to bring people a link to the outside world. That was when I felt the true power of story: simple, beautiful, eloquent.
How to Sell Yourself Without Selling Out April 20, 2012April 19, 2012 ~ writerlyderv ~ Leave a comment T.
Unfortunately, or so it seems to me at least, that mentality is now gone. Artists are expected to fit in with society. That means they usually have to do another job with their art to make ends meet. Grants are getting scarcer and scarcer. When an artist finishes a piece of art, they’re is expected to treat their work as a product and promote it. In other words, they have to sell themselves, a concept that fills many of them with curdling resentment to be in people’s faces. You just tell them about your work, the thing you are most passionate about.
When you’ve done that, there are some wonderful free tools you can use to tell your story. You’ll be familiar with these already. The social media tools: Facebook, Twitter, blogs. Then the good old traditional media. Your local newspaper or radio station will be your greatest champion. Make sure you accompany your words with good pictures. That’s what’ll really speak to people.
You’ve worked hard to get to this point. Wouldn’t it be a shame if that work went unrecognised. This is where artists have lessons to learn from the business community. Business people aren’t afraid to put a value on their work. If artists do the same, their status will rise and they will get the following they deserve.

V.M. Morozov
Abstract It is shown that the effect of dissipative and gyroscopic forces on a certain class of potential linear time-varying system differs considerably from the effect of these forces on a time-invariant system. Examples are considered. In the first of these, the equations of motion of a disk, attached to a rotating weightless elastic shaft, are investigated, taking external friction into account. The results obtained are compared with the results obtained previously by others when considering this problem. In the second example, certain problems of the stability of rotation of a Lagrange top on a base subjected to vertical harmonic vibrations are investigated. |

Don't wait for pain to see the dentist; schedule regular checkups and cleanings once or twice a year. And be sure to tell your dentist about medicines you take: Dry mouth ― a common cause of cavities in older adults ― is a side effect in about 500 drugs, including those for allergies, asthma, blood pressure, cholesterol, pain and Alzheimer's disease. To relieve dry-mouth symptoms, drink more water or chew sugar-free gum.
Drinking sugar. Bacteria in your mouth that feed on the sugar in sodas and sweetened fruit drinks make after you're done drinking, says the American Dental Association. Repeated attacks weaken enamel, leading to cavities and sensitive teeth. Research also suggests that the high acidity of energy and sports drinks can erode enamel. The best tooth-friendly thirst-quencher is water ― preferably with fluoride. This mineral occurs naturally in all water sources, and research shows it helps prevent cavities. Check bottled water labels for fluoride; if you use a filter for tap water, get one that doesn't remove fluoride.

Sacramento Leaders Join White House Signing Of Violence Prevention Legislation
by Casey Murray July 15, 2022August 5, 2022
Les Simmons, senior pastor at the South Sacramento Christian Center and director of the Simmons Center, joined President Joe Biden this week to sign the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act at the White House.
Two local violence prevention leaders joined President Joe Biden on Monday to sign the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, which seeks to strengthen certain gun laws and expand mental health resources for those impacted by gun violence.
Les Simmons, senior pastor at the South Sacramento Christian Center and director of the Simmons Center, and Julius Thibodeaux-Hasan, director of Movement 4 Life, were invited to attend the signing of the bill, which Congress passed last month.
“It was some of the biggest changes over the last 30 years around gun control,” Simmons said. “To represent our community in that space, with the hopes of both celebrating, which we did, but also securing resources from the Safe Communities Act to be really targeted towards community-led violence and interruption work here in Sacramento, it felt great. It was an honor.”
Simmons and Thibodeaux both partner with the Sierra Health Foundation, which helps distribute funding and support organizations in Northern California to reduce violence and promote racial equity in health.
The foundation said in a release that the two were invited in “recognition of their leadership and success in creating safe and healthy youth activities and alternatives to gun violence.”
“Their leadership in Sacramento gives our neighborhoods and community members the support, hope and connection they need to build community power and face complex issues like gun violence,” Chet P. Hewitt, president and CEO of Sierra Health Foundation and The Center, said in the release. “South Sacramento Christian Center and Movement 4 Life are incredible examples of why we prioritize funding and partnering with community-led organizations with the trust and established relationships to really make a difference.”
Simmons said that the bill is a victory, and one that took years of work to accomplish, but that it’s far from a complete solution.
“I think this is a start. It’s not the ending,” he said. “We don’t stop here. We grow from here.”
While the bill may represent a valuable opportunity to fund local violence prevention, it also underscores the changing priorities of Sacramento’s city government amidst recent violence.
“After the downtown shooting, which left multiple people dead and wounded, the City of Sacramento changed directions from supporting community-led violence reduction strategies and youth pop-ups, which is a move in the wrong direction,” Simmons said in the release. “I’m hopeful that the Safe Communities Act is a sign that precious resources for community mental health, crisis intervention workers and violence interrupters are on the way to save lives.”
Before the pandemic, Sacramento had gone more than two years without any youth homicides, but that changed after the pandemic. Now, the city seems to be shifting funding away from violence prevention efforts. 1`
The city’s most recently posted proposed budget, since approved, allocated a significant funding boost of more than $14 million to the police department while the Office of Violence Prevention lost about $4,000.
“I think it’s about time we learn from our mistakes, and we move on from here unify together,” Simmons said. “I would encourage our city leaders to really think about that. I would encourage them to really dig deep into say ‘how can we partner and be better partners?’”

en | N/A | N/A | How can we prove this ?
I read this theorem as a important note but the proof was ommited
Hey Maths Lover.
What can you say about the span of the space and a set of linear independent vectors with regard to the dimensionality of the space?
(Hint: How can you relate span to dimensionality and linear independence to said dimensionality of your vector space)?
Chiro, I think the results you suggest to be used are consequences of this theorem.
I know of two different proofs. One is based upon the thereom which says that a linear homogeneous equation system with more unknowns than equations has nontrivial solutions.
Another proof goes like this:
For each k (0<=k<=m), let Sk = {w1, w2, ... , wk, v1, v2, ... , vn}
Each Sk spans W, since S does.
Now, for each k (0<=k<=m), let Tk be the result when we remove from Sk all vectors which are linear combinations of the previous vectors in Sk. Then, each Tk is linearly independent. Since L is linearly independent, no wi will ever be removed when we form Tk, so w1, w2, ... wk in Tk for all k (0<=k<=m). But when we form T(k+1) (0<=k<m), we must remove at least all vectors from S(k+1) which we remove when we form Tk from Sk. But this is not enough, for if we only remove these vectors from S(k+1) to form T(k+1), w(k+1) would still be a linear combination of the other vectors in T(k+1), i.e. of the vectors in Tk, which contradicts that T(k+1) is linearly independent. Thus, we must remove at least one vector more to obtain T(k+1).
It follows that for each k (1<=k<=m), we must remove at least k vectors from Sk to form Tk, but none of the wi:s will be removed. In particular Tm contains all the vectors w1, w2, ... wm, and still it contains at least m vectors fewer than Sm, which contains m+n vectors. It follows that m<=(m+n)-m=m, that is: m<=n,
"... if we only remove these vectors from S(k+1) to form T(k+1), w(k+1) would still be a linear combination of the other vectors in T(k+1), i.e. of the vectors in Tk,..."
it might help to state why this claim is true, i.e. Tk is not only independent but also spans.
You can get lost iin a sea of notation here. If we are talking about finite dimension vector spaces (whcih seems a reasonable assumption, from the notation of "m" and "n" vectors) then:
If the vectors in S are linearly independent, the dimension of V is n, and there can not be more than n independsnt vectors in L.
If the vectors in S are not linearly dependent, remove vectors from S one at a time until you are left with a set of k < n independent vectors that span V. Repeating the previous argument, there can not be more than k indepedent vectors in L.
But you cannot prove this without the theorem in the OP. It is this theorem which makes it possible to talk about "the dimension" of a vector space. Without it, we wouldn't know that all bases have the same number of elements.
The definition of "dimension" that I use is that dim V=n if V contains a linearly independent set with cardinality n, but no linearly independent set with cardinality n+1. With this definition, we don't need a theorem to make it possible to talk about "the dimension" of a vector space.
OK, we can have such a definition. But it does not á priori exclude that there exists a linearly independent set with k<n elements which cannot be extended to a linearly independent set with k+1 elements. We need a theorem like the one above, with a complex proof like the one above, to ensure this.
Erland said:
OK, we can have such a definition. But it does not á priori exclude that there exists a linearly independent set with k<n elements which cannot be extended to a linearly independent set with k+1 elements.
If a linearly independent set of vectors S spans a vector space, then every vector in the space has a unique representation as a linear combination of the vectors in S. (If there were two different representations, you could subtract them and get a linear dependency between the vectors in S).
You can use that fact to make a proof of the OP's theorem, by translating the argument about linear homegenous equations (which you mentioned) into the language of vector algebra.
People may have different opinions about whether that is a "simpler" proof than your (or Riemann's) proof, of course.

You can try with this proof (apagoge).
Suppose m > n.
Each vector of L is a linear combination of vectors v1, ... , vn, then:
w1 = a1(v1) + ... + an
At least one a_i coefficient is not zero (wlog, suppose a1 ≠ 0). Let's multiply both sides of equation by (a1)^(-1):
a1(v1) = w1 - a2(v2) - ... - an
[(a1)^(-1)](a1)(v1) = [(a1)^(-1)][w1 - a2(v2) - ... - an(vn)]
v1 = [(a1)^(-1)][w1 - a2(v2) - ... - an(vn)]
Each vector of V is a linear combination of vectors v1, ... , vn, then:
v = b1(v1) + ... + bn
Recall the last result about v1:
v = b1(v1) + ... + bn(vn) = (b1)[(a1)^(-1)][w1 - a2(v2) - ... - an(vn)] + ... + bn
that is a linear combination of L1 = {w1, v2, ... vn}. This is another spanning set of V.
Let's express w2 as linear combination of L1 vectors:
w2 = c1(w1) + c2(v2) + ... + cn
There is at least one nonzero coefficient among c2...cn (otherwise w1 and w2 would not be linearly independent vectors). We can reiterate the procedure used to obtain (*), then L2 = {w1, w2, v3, ... vn} is another spanning set of V.
Replay this procedure n times, then Ln = L = {w1, ... , wn} is a spanning set of V.
Then, each vector of V is a linear combination of vectors of L, then
v = h1(w1) + ... + hn
In this case, it is true that
w_(n+1) = k1(w1) + ... + kn
but we supposed L to be a set of linearly independent vectors, then the last result is impossible and we proved the theorem.
the problem with Fredrik's definition is it is not clear that R^n has dimension n, without this theorem.

In light of this steep burden, it is unreasonable to suggest that gubernatorial consideration of an applicant's bankruptcy—a component of her personal history—could not e responsibilities associated with the office at issue entail maintaining financial and public land records and collecting and disbursing substantial sums of money, including recording fees and transfer taxes. The fact that a candidate for this appointment has filed bankruptcy, coupled with the fact that the desired public office involves management of a staff responsible for significant sums of money, conceivably raises questions regarding the practical—and political—wisdom of appointing that applicant. While the parties dispute whether the position's duties are “ministerial” or not, it is apparent from the definition of its defined duties in Wis. Stat. § 59.43 that the position of Register demands—at minimum—supervisory and financial responsibility.
Alternatively, and despite the fact that the appointment in question is awarded by the elected head of state, Chasensky asserts that neither gubernatorial concern about the potential appointee's ultimate electability nor Walker's desire to avoid adverse political repercussions from unwise appointments is a legitimate governmental interest. We disagree. “[I].” Id. Chasensky argues that pure partisan political interests and legitimate governmental interests in Elrod v. Burns, 427 U.S. 347 (1976). But it is precisely because these interests are aligned here that we must respect the weight appointment decisions made by elected and politicallyaccountable individuals are due. Chasensky implies that in practice wise appointment decisions inure principally to the benefit of the elected official, not the citizenry. But that perspective fails to appreciate what should be obvious: both the official and the citizenry are better off when elected officials avoid poor appointment decisions that have |

ED ESHUYS may have set some ambitious performance goals over the four years that he was chief executive of the gold producer St Barbara Ltd, but in the tumultuous year of 2008 he may have been too ambitious.
St Barbara’s production and budgetary targets were not met, cash was tight, and with a global crisis of confidence paralysing the banking sector there were grim prospects of refinancing the company’s facilities. As the Victorian Supreme Court heard yesterday, disappointment followed disappointment at St Barbara in 2008.
A five-year management budget did not meet Mr Eshuys’ standards, so was deferred; a multimillion-dollar accounting error emerged in October; and there were difficulties mining ore at the company’s West Australia operations.
A letter from Mr Eshuys’ lawyers to St Barbara’s lawyers in December 2008, which was tendered in court, contended Mr Eshuys ”is meeting the milestones” set out in his performance contract, namely gold production targets and the company’s cash position.

Curtis, 53, saw his gamble start to pay off last year when China slashed rare earth exports, causing prices to surge as much as 13-fold and setting off a scramble to lock in alternative sources of the metals used in missile guidance systems, iPods and hybrid cars.
“I’d pictured the need for order in the industry, that these were important metals that would ultimately need a stable, secure non-China supply chain,” said Curtis, whoydney.
Forrest “epitomises going long where China is short, which was the right move,” Curtis said. “I went long where China is ultra-long, which was the wrong move for the particular time” about 2002.
Global demand for rare earths is forecast to rise to $US11.2 billion by 2014 from $US7.8 billion last year, Lynas said in a presentation last month.
To be sure, prices of some rare earths, including lanthanum, may start to drop by 2013 as additional production creates a “vast oversupply,” Western Minerals Group, a Canadian exploration company, forecast last month.
“We were insiders when no one else could penetrate China,” said Jake Klein, the former CEO of Sino Gold and now the chairman of Conquest Mining and board director of Lynas.
“This being a strategic resource with existing supplies controlled by China, sophisticated investors got the story in a nanosecond and the deal built its own momentum,” said Alan Young, head of natural resources & infrastructure in Sydney for JPMorgan Chase, which managed and underwrote the $450 million share sale.
China Non-ferrous Metal offered to pay $252 million for a 51.6 per cent stake in Lynas. The company has a market value today of $3.5 billion.
That is up by $2.1 billion on the same period last financial yearrch, 2011. |

Curious about your Library? 2019 was one for the books! Here are some fun facts and trends about borrowing and usage from the past year.
Halifax Public Libraries has over 730,000 items to borrow. And in 2019, items were borrowed over 3.2 million times! 2019 was not only a busy year for borrowing—our branches saw over 2.8 million visitors, and community members asked Library staff for help finding their next read over 130,000 times. And to top it off, our Interlibrary Loan team borrowed over 5,600 items from other library systems for our users.
Most Popular Genre: From cozy couch mysteries to cliffhanging whodunits, Mystery takes the win for print books! However, when it comes to e-book demand, romance rises to the top.
Most Popular Non-Fiction Subject: Folks in HRM are passionate about biographies and autobiographies, both in print and e-book. Reading about someone’s experience, culture, and history can provide a lot of insight into the world around us.
Most Popular Collection: From whimsical stories to serious life lessons, picture books are the most borrowed children’s books. You’re never too old to enjoy a picture book!
Most Popular Non-Fiction Subject: Social sciences tops the charts for youth of all ages (teens too!). Included in this subject area are books on the environment, cultures, activism, bullying, and social media.
Trends: Of our three graphic novel collections (Children, Teen, and Adult), children’s graphic novels are the most borrowed. We can’t keep them on our shelves! Reading graphic novels takes skill—simultaneously reading the words, the graphics, and the white space between panels (where all that is not said is said)—and the children of HRM have the skills.
Streaming services have not dampened our love of DVDs. In 2019, DVDs were borrowed over 930,000 times.
Top Picks: Action movies are the most borrowed genre of adult DVDs and comedies are the most borrowed genre of children’s DVDs.
While our customers still prefer print material, the demand for our e-book and downloadable audiobook collection is growing by leaps and bounds. OverDrive saw over 840,000 checkouts in 2019, while RBdigital came in at over 100,000, and hoopla had over 18,000. |

en | N/A | N/A | Such a Good Boy: Crom [1991-2004]
Crom posing, as he would on demand, one late afternoon in Stanley Park, Vancouver, B.C.
His name was Crom, but I called him other things over the years as well. "Dogboy," "Soupy," "Patous" — the last some inexplicable faux Cajun endearment that often became "'Tee Patous." He was "Swee' Pea" to me and "Handsome" to his vet.
My son, who referred to him as "my little black brother" and outweighed him by at most thirty pounds, called him "Kid." My stepdaughter called him "Cromster" and "Cromula," but not to his face. Women who knew him called him "Crommie." I explained his name, during introductions, as "like Cromwell," but it wasn't. I would call him "Babe" during our conversations on walks, and one day a stranger asked if I named him for Paul Bunyan's blue ox. He weighed 135 pounds.
His name was Crom, for my childhood obsession with Conan, fueled and revived by a recent movie. In our imagined conversations, he called me "Pop," more a term of respect and endearment than a description of our relationship. We were friends, companions, codependents. Perhaps I had most of the power and all the money (and the danged opposable thumbs), but I was his child as much as he was mine. We grew, and grew old, together. And we loved each other. I am an educated, sensible man, not given to romantic fantasies like anthropomorphism, but there was no question that he would have given his life for me, and I for him. Now he is dead, and I'm not, so this memorial.
This area of the Dancing Badger website will be the repository of memories and observations. It includes links to essays I've written about him and a gallery of photographs I put up two years ago for his friends. I want to write about our life together, what he taught me — about intelligence, about love, about respect for our four-legged brothers and sisters, about living as one species among many. His example taught me that we might aspire to live like dogs, and the world would be better for it.
I've been accused of "elevating" animals to the level of humans; this is an "accusation" because it is always described, inexplicably, as "demeaning" or "trivializing" human beings. This first time I ever did it, I was sixteen and my mother had announced, in the heat of an argument, that I obviously thought "we were no better than animals." I said, in effect, "I've know some pretty good animals. What's wrong with that?" She played her trump card, retreating to the bathroom to have hysterics. She never answered my question. Nor has anyone else.
Animals better than people? If I think so, it's beside the point, which is that people are not "better" than animals. But that is an argument for another time and place. Crom would have found the notion that dogs have more right to the planet than squirrels amusing, though he might have agreed with regard to starlings (the bane of the boneyard). If he could understand that his species made him a second-class lifeform in the eyes of humans, he would have shrugged it off sadly.
A friend, after meeting Crom, told me what he called a favorite prayer: "Lord, help me be the man my dog thinks I am." There is much we could learn about "being human" by studying animals, who seldom match homo sapiens for sheer "inhumanity." Perhaps these pages will help you see how I came to think so, and perhaps they will persuade you to agree. That is not their purpose, though. They are a memorial to a life well lived by a creature of great goodness. To the degree that I tell you who Crom was, they will be successful.

en | N/A | N/A | If any one thinks that the DEMOCRATS are not selfish, then they are not paying attention to what is going on or they are not listening to what they are really saying.
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. – Weeks after his harsh remarks toward the GOP, a Florida congressman’s popularity with Democrats isn’t dying quickly.
Grayson complied, “Don’t get sick. The crowd cheered.
It’s pretty clear Republicans are getting sick of the name calling. Kevin Madden, a Washington-based GOP strategist, sent a message on Twitter when he heard about Grayson’s suggestion for a new name for the Republican Party.
“Alan Grayson calling anyone else selfish is laughable,” said state GOP spokeswoman Katie Betta.
Kevin Baker, 38, of Palm Beach Gardens knew nothing about Grayson two weeks ago. He’s now a fan. He doesn’t live in Grayson’s district, but waited in line to get a picture with him, saying afterward that Grayson says aloud what most Democrats think. |
en | N/A | N/A | “The tribes declaratively stated that they are choosing to exercise their rights for the tribal assumption of the IHS,” the Great Plains Tribal Chairmen’s Health Board said last week in announcing the move.
According to IHS, the tribes have known long in advance about the changes in service while demolition and construction takes place. Sioux San has only been funded to provide “ambulatory care” in the last three budgets, the agency said in a report to Congress.
“Because the facility will not be providing inpatient services, the replacement facility is ineligible to participate in Medicare as a hospital,” the report stated.
In 2016, the Spirit Lake Nation became the first in the Great Plains to enter into a self-governance compact with the IHS. The tribe is managing the Spirit Lake Health Center in North Dakota.
ing on Capitol Hill that focused on the IHS, arguing ts in the Great Plains due to bureaucratic holdups on the federal level.
The hospital that serves the Oglala Sioux Tribe was also in jeopardy. At another Capitol Hill hearing, the temporary leader of the IHS reported what he said was “progress” at the Pine Ridge Hospital.
The facility is “back in compliance” with federal standards and is awaiting a “full survey” to determine whether it has maintained those standards, Michael Weahkee said on April 17. He did not offer a prognosis on Winnebago, however.
Weahkee, who is a career bureaucrat at the IHS, is serving as its “acting” director because the Trump administration has so far failed to secure a permanent leader for the agency, more than a year after the new president took office.
The IHS has seen “four acting directors since 2015,” noted writes the agency's funding bill. She is alsowith a strong interest in Indian issues.
The #Omnprovides more than $5.5 billion to the IHS, reversing cuts which President Trump had sought a year ago.
The bill includes provisions that address tribal consultation,removal and discipline authorities for troublesome employees. Some leaders in the Great Plains have called the region a “dumping ground” for bad actors.
“The health care crisis facing many IHS facilities in the Great Plains and in Indian Country is a concern this committee takes very seriously,” said Sen. Tom Udall (D-New Mexico), the panel's vice chairman, at a business meeting.
Separately, a facility in Udall's home state of New Mexico is facing quality of care issues. The emergency department atcitizens of the Navajo Nation and the Pueblo of Zuni, has been determined to be “out of compliance,” Weahkee said last week.
Over in the House, the companion to S.1250 is H.R.2662. The bill got a hearing last June but has not advanced further in the chamber. |
en | N/A | N/A | Something that you generally don’t really see anymore is one model of car with multiple, significantly different body styles. Like this 1980 Toyota Celica, which you could have in liftback or coupé form, and the body changes were significant, with everything different from the B-pillar back. This isn’t some VW Atlas/Atlas Cross Sport situation where you need a tape measure to know which version you’re looking at.
What if the new Supra, for example, came in a fastback and coupé form? Or if you could get a notchback version of the Kia Soul? Or even two- and four-door versions of the same car? That’s pretty much gone, too.
Is that bad? Good? Honestly, I don’t even know anymore. Maybe it was confusing, maybe it was fun? Probably both.
Well the Supra used to be a Celica. Now I hear it’s a BMW.
This just makes me miss my 1982 L-Type Celica Supra. Loved the wheels and stock rear louvers on that thing. Oh, and the digital speedo/information center still worked fine! In fact, so did the pop-up headlights. Very impressive. Sure, it only had the 5M-GE, but it was a sedate mate for the semi-sporty touring aspirations of that lovely cruiser.
My 1983 Celica GT notch is still perhaps favorite car I’ve ever owned.
The late 80s- early 90’s S13 240sx was offered in a hatch, coupe, and eventually convertible. The hatch and coupe looked very different as they were based on the 180sx and Silvia in foreign markets but brought to North America under the same model name.
Shoot, I remember when it was available as a wagon. I *had* that wagon. Other cars were available as wagons too!
I had the wagon too until it was taken away in 2017. For the past 4.5 years I’ve been telling everyone, including Subaru, how much I miss it.
The 1980’s Celica actually was available in five wildly different body styles.
Notchback (SA6x,) hatchback (RA6x,) AA6x coupe, TA6x coupe, and RA6x convertible (done by ASC.) That’s not even touching on the fact that the TA6x was built as live rear axle and IRS at the same time.
It’s also quite possibly the first time a Japanese company gave North America a car that could not be bought in Japan or Europe – the GT-S convertible was only ever sold in the United States.
Was that one the “Sunchaser” model?
Another car that was built as live axle and IRS at the same time is the 1984 Nissan 200SX. Base-model 2.0L cars had a solid rear axle and rear drum brakes, while 200SX turbos had rear discs and IRS.
For 1985 onward they used the IRS and rear discs in all models.
Only three bodystyles AFAIK (notch, hatch, convertible), and the initial leading letters in the chassis numbers indicate engine family – SA6x having S-series engines, TA6x T-series and so on. Earlier Toyotas did receive different numbers for different bodystyles, but Toyota found themselves running out of numbers and stopped that practice. Commercial versions and major chassis changes still merited different numbers.
Fox body Mustangs came in hatch and notch variants – not really my bag so I’m not sure if they were always sold at the same time. Now what is my jam is late 80’s Nissan Pulsar’s! Hatch, Sportback, Naked – all the versions!
I believe both coupe and hatch were sold for the entire run of Foxes from 79-93. FYI, the convertible was added in 83 and ran through 93, so 3 body styles for 10 yearsextra body cladding the GTs got from 89-93, and the unique styling features of the SVO that ran from 84-86.
Ha Ha! I totally forgot there were convertible versions of the Foxstang.
Yes, and I seem to remember that the pursuit versions were always the notchback.
For the hardcore performance type, the notchback was always preferred as the lightest possible variant.
Hence the popularity of the LX 5.0 over the actual GT model with that crowd.
Yup, the notches were stiffer, probably lighter, and a little cheaper. I don’t even think Ford bothered making a pursuit-spec hatch.
I think these days most people don’t really care what the model badge says so much as what the manufacturer badge is. Coupled with 4-door sedans being called ‘coupes’ etc. and it’s kind of a moot point.
That said, I dig those Celicas!
The very early 70s Celica’s ruled with their Camaro-esque styling.
The first gen cars were definitely some of the coolest, I like the later 70’s ones where they look like someone stuck a Mustang in a copier and pressed 60%.
Hey now! The Mustang comes in a 2-door coupe, a 2-door convertible, and a 4-door crossover EV that is totally a real Mustang and not just a marketing gimmick!
Perhaps it is the opposite, manufacturers are not constraining their platforms to fit the same model. Instead of having a Golf SUV, VW just calls it the Skoda Yeti externally, and P35Q internally.
Seriously, I had to look it up, and on the Wikipedia page, the list of models (and brands) on each platform just gets bigger and bigger – maybe it is a testament to better modularity on the platform, or better/blander marketing targeting.
I sure do miss having an obvious connection between wildly different body styles, but maybe this is just because I saw that a lot while I was growing up. I still remember my glee when I realized that the original VW T2 was actually meant to resemble a Beetle. Look: | o \ / o | and (o\_/o) !
Does anyone sell a fastback hatchback any more? I mean, my FRS is is fastback (pretty much) but it has a trunk, My first car, my CRX, had a hatch, as did my Eagle Talon. And Mom’s horrible Datsun F10 was a hatch, and Dad’s 944, which my nephew now has. But does anything, even the exotics, come with a hatch now?
I was a teenager in the ’80s, so I always just assumed hatchback coupes would just exist forever. I’m sad at how wrong I was. Back in those days, even economy cars were offered with them (e.g. the Chevy Cavalier Type 10).
With the end of the Fox body, the Mustang hatchback got replaced with a semi-fastback style that’s a sorta reinterpretation of the orignals from the ’60s – lots of raked glass with a small trunklid at the end.
Unfortunately the people who actually pay for cars new decided having vehicles that were (relatively) fast, practical and inexpensive were for lame/poor people who could only afford one car.
Is Mercedes not the king of this kind of thing? You can get an E class coupe, sedan, or wagon. You can get a C class coupe or sedan.
My Buick Regal TourX also has a sedan version which is completely different behind the C pillar. As is my V90 Cross Country… although I guess technically the S90 is a different model. Obviously, this happens a lot in Europe from which these two cars originate.
Not much has changed at Toyota. Today they offer the Corolla, Corolla Hatchback, and Corolla Cross. All very different bodies under the same nameplate.
I had a 81 Celica GT notch with the 22R, and a 85 Celica GT hatch with the 22RE. The later version was a much better car. Better built. Rode better, was faster.
I know this is a crappy example but I remember the Chevy Cavalier from the mid-80’s being available as a 2 door coupe, 2 door hatchback, sedan, wagon, convertible, and even in a faux sporty Z-24 trim. Being a Cavalier, those are probably all bad choices but at least there were choices.
I had an ’86 hatchback with the Iron Duke. I envied the rich kids who had the Z24. It had a V6 and nearly twice the horsepower, 80 something versus 140ish.
Yes! The Type 10 was handsome for what it was, and had bad-ass steel wheels that I still to this day adore.
I’ve got a better one: the Oldsmobile Cutlass. In the early 1970s, it could be had in hardtop fastback coupe, hardtop notchback coupe, convertible, four-door sedan, and station wagon versions. And hell, in the midst of the 1988 switch over from the G-body platform to the W-body platform, you could buy one in rear OR front wheel drive.
Jason- you forgot to mention that these Celicas were one of the first (if not THE first) Toyotas styled in America (CALTY office), and it was designed by a former child actor, David Stollery.
And while it’s subjective, I thought the chiseled previous generation was much more attractive. I was pretty disappointed the first time I saw the new bar of soap profile.
….why do I have the urge to make myself comfortable and come to where the flavor is?
I love these ’70s and early ’80s Japanese cars for some reason, especially the spartan, RWD coupes. My ex had a Plymouth Colt hatchback, an ’83 I believe, and when I learned the prior generation was RWD I went on a hunt to track one down, but I digress.
It’d be nice if there were more options when it came to body styles, four doors is two too many. Makes me wonder what a Kia Stinger coupé would have looked like, or if it would have sold well.
Remember when the Chrysler Sebring was available as a coupe, convertible and sedan, but the coupe wasn’t even the same platform as the convertible and sedan?
Creado y regado de Los Angeles, Juana’s Addicción…..
Sorry, I read Stop, and Janes Addiction popped into my cranium. Anyways, how about a 2+2 version of the new Z. Though, the proportions of the original S30 2+2 was “off”, maybe the new Z could look sexy as a 2+2. On the flipside, a 2+2 Corvette or SUV could make it rain money for GM.
Nissan has the Infiniti Q60 that is a 2-door 2+2 on the same platform as the Z, so it wouldn’t much more than new sheet-metal stampings to reintroduce a 2+2 Z.
As for a 2+2 Corvette? Not too many 2+2 mid-engine cars in the world. It would take some major redesign to do it, and it would be huge (see the MegaTrack). Besides, isn’t the Camaro essentially the 4-seat Corvette? Of course, GM could take the Ford approach and just slap some Corvette design cues on an CUV EV and call it a day. |

“It’s all about the relationships. We are family and will probably always be family,” Howard said.
Stepping in to assume the role isJimmy Carter.
Carter was an assistant under Howard the past 14 years. He started with WISD in 1998 at what was then Wylie Junior High. He moved to Wylie High in 2000 as a science teacher and coach.
Before returning to the high school in 2006, he coached in Springdale, Ark. and at Newman Smith High School in Carrollton.
Howard was the second longest tenured coach in school history, just behind Jerry Shaffer.
The first thing they were faced with was changing the mindset of what was expected on and off the field.

Don't bother, they won't appreciate your business!
Better off going to the "real" up north!
WIth that being said, we checked some other places along the lake near Port Austin, and nothing was available. I was forced to pony up the $429 it cost to stay in one of the cabins here 2 nights (on Saturday AND SUNDAY night)!I guess when its summertime it doesnt matter. I agree with the other posts...the rules are excessive and the place is overpriced. The cabins are definitely not luxury, just crusty old cottages that have painted over paneling and vinyl siding to cover up their age. Parking is inconvenient. They give you old blankets with holes in them in case you get cold at night..I wonder if they even spray for bugs because we had a lot of tiny ants and flying critters in the cabin. Cheap furniture and nastiness under the sink, the rest looks clean. At least they have BBQ's on site if you want to pick up some charcoal and save a few bucks by cooking your own meal. Not much to do in this town other than hang on the beach, play putt-putt, or get an ice cream cone. Better off heading up north to Traverse and worth the drive!
Room Tip: Go someplace more interesting or just stay home!
Having traveled around the country.....
Having given this place a fair shake by reading all the other reviews, I can write an update for the 2013 stay. Pool has been updated and new towels have been purchased.........the rest remains "intact." Is clean and the lake is lovely. Period. The rule book remains and rule reminders are posted everywhere. No toys or drinks in the pool area, really?$100 charge if your room is not clean by the time you leave, really?Well, I am not sure why I paid what I did for the "luxury suite" I stayed in. Read the previous reviews for those details. The only Kayak rental place will not rent if there is a distant chance of a storm or if the winds are over 5 miles an hour. Most of the eateries do not take credit and there is a putt putt course to keep you busy for half an hour if haven't found that special something at the dimestore. Unless you are sendentary, alcoholic, newly wed or a long distance runner, this is NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU. Save your dollars and the only nerve you will have left by the time you check out. The parking spaces here are angled toward the lake on both sides of a single entry drive........

en | N/A | N/A | Q: How to store 3D matrix in text file so that it can be imported to Matlab? I have a text file as an output of a c++ program. Its actually a 3x100x200 element matrix. 3x100 2d matrices over 200 timestamps. I want to store this such that I can load it in Matlab workspace and then visualize it in a 3d plot. I am not able to figure out the structure of the text file. As in where should I put a "[..]" and where ";" and where a " " or ",".
Could someone please give an example so that I can print out in the file from the c++ code in a that manner
A: Forget the text file. Instead, write a .mat file using the Matio library. This way you will be able to quickly add some more data fields in case you need to.
If you really want to use a text file, you can first write the matrix dimensions, then all the elements, and finally do some reshaping as suggested here.
A: I found a hack without using any extra libs.
I just output every 2d matrix as outMat(:,:,matIndex) and incremented matIndex in a loop. And then I ran the .m in matlab as a script.
void printArrs(){
// B(:,:,1) = [1 2 3; 4 5 6];
// B(:,:,2) = [7 8 9; 0 0 0];
outFile.open ("forPlot.m", ios::out | ios::app);
matIndex++;
outFile << "outMat(:,:," << matIndex << ") = [";
for(i=0;i<fftLen;i++){
outFile << Mag[0][i] << " ";
outFile << Mag[1][i] << " ";
outFile << Mag[2][i] << ";" << endl;
outFile << "];" << endl;
For some answers I wasnt clear enough I guess, because they assumed I want to write 'from' Matlab and not 'to' Matlab while it was the other way.
A: Try googling ".csv" to find out what a comma separated variable file is. That should help, you can import them into Matlab if I recall correctly.
A: If you really want to use text files, although I suggest you go for the earlier mentioned Matio library, you can save a 3D array by reshaping it to 2D to write, and by reshaping it to 3d after you read. Have a look at this simple MATLAB code. It writes a 3D matrix to a csv file. After writing, the csv file contains a 2D matrix with the second and third dimensions streamed as a vector:
A = rand(3,10,10);
csvwrite('data.txt', A);
B = csvread('data.txt');
% B is now 3 x 100 matrix, so you need to reshape
B = reshape(B, 3, 10, 10);
A: Better to save it to a .mat file. You won't have to bother with the file structure this way.
See the documentation of the save function. Edit: I misread the question and didn't realize you're trying to save the matrix in C++. I suggest you follow Pukku's advice and use the Matio library.
To load a .mat file in Matlab, just use
load('myfile.mat')
Which will put the matrix in your workspace. |

en | N/A | N/A | We've been home for about 24 hours and I am not at all adjusted yet. Vacation is like this incredible paradox, when done right, that sucks you out of reality and let me tell you friends: the best place to lose track of real life is on a cruise ship. This was our first time out, so we were testing the waters (so to speak) with an incredibly cheap deal (under $300 for a week!) on an arguably low-end cruise line. And we've already decided that we will be back and TAKE YOU ALL WITH US.
My friend Mark suggested in which the author takes a cruise for a magazine assignment and comes away a bit scared of the vortex of "luxury" onboard (the steward staff who cleans your room three times a day but whom you never actually see, the porters who are not supposed to let you carry your own bags lest they get 'spoken to' by management for spoiling your vacation, the waiters who practically beg you to switch out your dinner if you're not in love with every bite, etc.) that plucks you from reality and into a micromanaged cavalcade of Things To Do so that you will come away relaxed and refreshed. I agree, it takes some getting used to. But if you don't allow yourself to be jaded (i.e., appreciate the fact that someone else is cooking and cleaning and attending to life's details) it is wonderful. Definitely a luxury I could get used to.
It's like a drug, this "relaxation" thing. If they sold it on the streets, I'd be the biggest junkie out there. I'd be the one sitting on the corner, blissfully reading in the sun, sitting on a pile of trash bags while passersby drop change into my sun hat. If any enterprising individuals are reading this, invent Relaxation In A Can and I'll buy it. That and the scent of suntan lotion and sea air as a cologne.

en | N/A | N/A | by: Joe My girlfriend has a 7 year daughter and a 8 year old boy I also have a 3 year old my problem is I've tried being nice to her ask her to do things with a please and thank you but she seems to not care I've tried everything I was taught as a kid on her to no prevail!
I'm at the point of just ignoring her because I can't deal with it anymore and now my daughter who is 3 is acting the same way what can I do?
I think that when one child is bad that the other 2 should still get reward example desert I think if the other 2 get it and she doesn't it may make her think that if she's good she will get it also I NEED HELP!
I feel like giving up also because I think I already did everything to cope up with her attitude. We are like this everyday!
Me Too – my daughter is 7 and acts awful!
I sent my daughter to a girl scout overnight camping trip this weekend. She was excited to go. My husband picked her up yesterday and asked her how it went. She replied, "Great!
my daughter is 6.5 and has told me she wished she wasnt born, im not a cool mom, her friends all have cool moms, i come from a very lovey and compassionate family and she is not lovey or compassionate and really doesnt like giving me kisses, she's very stubborn. her dad and i are married and she is an only child, she is 75% tomboy and 25% girlie, it hurts my feelings when she says certain things to me and i know i am the adult and know she's just a kid but i find her as being rude, some of the things she says to me i would never think of saying to my mom,she really doesnt get scared or learn from discipline. is this normal?
not know what to do. Anyone have this problem?
God began a good work in us that He is faithful and just to finish!
My 7 year old daughter- I don't know what to do!
My 7 year old daughters behaviour is fairly similar, I am happily married with a son (10) and daughter(7). My daughter has a bad temper that spirals from nowhere she hits and pinches her brother rather badly at times. Everyday she says I love you mummy before school and before bed. She is a dady's girl but she is always saying Ihate you daddy and my husband replies "well i love you"!Sometimes she will also say "i wish i was dead or not born". I do talk to her but she clams up she is just like i was when i was little!Except i came from a very abusive home in more ways than one, I pledged there was no way i was ever going to treat my children the way i was treated, I find it hard to discipline my daughter. I love her to pieces she always wants to be doing something with mummy drawing, art, puzzles but now she says everything is boring. What can i do?
I was glad to read your post. As we have a seven year old with attitude, showing all the same behaves. It's a very difficult time, but patience and a little understaing will go along way I believe…. And maybe time out for mum is needed…
You know sometimes we parents suffer Attention Deficit disorder too. We don't pay enough attention to our kids. Did you know that just 15minutes of 1 on 1 time with your daughter, doing what SHE wants, with none of our "adult" rules will make a world of difference?Also, she might be feeling replaced by the new man in your life. Do you both work to let her know that she is still also your top priority? |

en | N/A | N/A | Failure of the partially finished earthfill Carsington Dam at the beginning of June 1984 was sudden and catastrophic. In the space of 36 hours, a 400m section of the 1,250m long earthfill dam in Derbyshire slipped, leaving a 15m deep, 30m wide chasm along the crest. At its peak, the slip was moving at 120mm per hour.
At first, the reason for the slip was unclear, but detailed analysis revealed that the unusual boot shape of the clay core (with its 'toe' on the upstream side) set up a non uniform distribution of strain through the dam. Under the large strains induced, the foundation clay - for which there had been very limited strength testing - suffered local brittle failure, resulting in progressive failure of the dam's upstream. |

en | N/A | N/A | Following this objective, manufacturers have developed very different types of lenses. The current multifocal lenses available on the market differ from the materials used, the optical purpose (diffraction, refraction), the number of focus (bifocal, trifocal), the filters…and, obviously, they provide a "different vision" to the patient. The question that arises in the patient is: what of these multifocal lenses on the market is the one I am going to get?
What can I expect from my surgery with trifocal lenses?
The surgeon, based on his experience, will recommend you the type and specific model of intraocular lens that best fits your expectations and ocular situation. That is why the patient needs to provide his surgeon with all the information related to his visual expectations (life style, character…). According to your needs, the surgeon will explain you everything related to the surgery as well as the visual expectations that you may have after surgery with the chosen lens (neuroadaptation process, possibility of experiencing halos, the need of better lighting, dependence on glasses… |

February 25, 2021 Timothy Chiu, VP of Marketing
Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) are a traditional application security tool used by many organizations in their arsenal against the cyber attacks inflicted on a continual basis on their infrastructure. When they were introduced, they were seen as the remedy to the cyber attacks facing typical organizations with a web presence. Unfortunately, cyber criminals have evolved, and while WAFs have tried to evolve as well, it seems they are losing the battle. Dark Reading reported on the disappointment with WAFs back in July of 2020, and more recently a newlt they are spending a moderate amount of time on modifications to their WAF, while almost 40% said they spend a lot of time.
These results are actually no surprise to us here at K2 Cyber Security, as this disappointment with WAFs is also what we’re hearing from our customers. Typically we hear that WAFs are less effective at combatting cyber attacks than they have been in the past and require more tweaking and configuration than they have required in the past. Both of these problems are leading the growing dissatisfaction with WAFs as a security tool.
Unfortunately though, we’re also told by the same customers that they have no plans to remove their WAF infrastructure because for many industries, the WAF is a required for compliance reasons. So they will remain in place, even if they are ineffective at securing the application infrastructure.

Reindl of Oshkosh referred to it as "unjust and a blow at the German people."

Babe is also making excellent progress on getting dressed on her own. The undressing bit is almost mastered apart from the T shirts over the head.

Aerial attacks during the Korean and V. The vast formations of heavy bombers common during World War II were seldom used. These wars were fought mainly by Allied ground forces assisted by U.S. Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps fighters and bombers, which provided close support and attacked enemy supply lines.
The helicopter came into its own during these conflicts. It excelled at evacuating wounded ground troops, and in Vietnam the Bell UH-1 Huey provided battlefield mobility in a new type of maneuver warfare. The Huey became the modern-day cavalry for the ground forces. Although air power did not play a decisive role in Korea or Vietnam, U.S. strategic air power did help deter the Soviet Union and China from expanding these wars into global conflicts.

Make your weekend trips to the zoo extra special when you take in the Earn Your Wings show at the Wildlife Theater. Saturdays and Sundays at 2 p.m. are take off time for this show that features hawks, owls and vultures with a side of education and conservation to make the experience a memorable one. No need to register and the cost is included with your admission. Put it on your schedule and make it a date!

Not only is this the perfect distraction for those ZooTunes nights, but the historic carousel, just off the zoo’s west entrance, is a tradition your Littles will love. For $3 a pop, kids can choose their favorite hand-carved horse to ride on, from 9:30 a.m.-2 p.m. on weekdays and 9:30 a.m.-4 p.m. on weekends and holidays. It’s a spin you don’t want to miss!
When you visit the zoo between April 20 and October 7, 2018 you and your crew can marvel at the National Geographic Photo Ark Exhibit. The installation will include 56 over-sized photographs (we’re talking 8’x6’), taken by National Geographic photographer and Fellow, Joel Sartore. Each stunning shot captures rare and endangered species in action, and they’ll be spread out around the zoo’s 92 acres. Our favorite part? Some of Woodland Park Zoo’s own residents are included in the exhibit; keep your eyes peeled for the Matschie’s tree kangaroo, Sumatran orangutan, snow leopard and loveable Humboldt penguin when you visit.
