Jim Furlong: His Greatest Victory |
en | N/A | N/A | An Iowa teenager found dead after running away from home suffered 'blunt force head trauma' after falling from a communication tower.
Corey Brown, 13, was found dead Sunday, five days after he ran away from home during a snowstorm after having a disagreement with his parents.
Searchers discovered his body on January 27 at the communication tower site located in the 900-1000 block of West Iowa Avenue in Marshalltown.
Police say their investigation determined Brown climbed over a secure fence to enter the site and climbed the communication tower, then fell from an undetermined height, KCCI reported.
A preliminary autopsy revealed he fell and suffered a significant head injury. His cause of death was likely blunt force trauma,aid they of the incident remains active, but police said there is no information that indicates criminal activity played a role in Brown’s death.
Services for Brown are being held Friday and Saturday in Marshalltown, where Corey lived with his family.
Theat 10:30 a.m at St. Henry’s Catholic Church.
Brown went missing on the night of January 22 aFootage from the family's security system showed Corey walking away from their home Tuesday night after he was scolded.
His parents Michelle and Craig Brown, along with investigators, held a news conference locally to raise awareness about their missing son earlier in the week.
His mother told KCCI: 'Corey, you know how much we love you. And I’m not going to stop until we find you. If you’re out there, please come home.

en | N/A | N/A | What Is Enzyme Exfoliation and How Does It Work?
Enzymes vs. AHAs: What's the Difference?
Sometimes, navigating the world of skin care can seem like chemistry class. This rings true when you're learning about the different forms of chemical exfoliation. Should you use products that contain alpha-hydroxy-acids (AHAs), beta-hydroxy-acids (BHAs) or enzymes?
What are enzymes and how can they benefit the skin?
"Most enzymes used in skin care and pumpkin," says Dr. King. She explains that they help break down proteins on the outer layer of skin. "This helps slough off dead surface skin cells, leaving the skin smoother and softer, and helps decrease discoloration."
How do enzymes compare to chemical exfoliants like AHAs and BHAs?
If you're looking for a more intense exfoliation, you may want to choose hydroxy-acids instead. "Alpha- and beta-hydroxy-acids are generally more potent, so they can offer more dramatic results," says Dr. King, "however, these can result in potential irritation." |

In 2018, the Commission granted SpaceX authorization to “construct, deploy, and operate” its proposed satellite system, “rld” and the rights to do so over certain spectrum within the Ku- and Ka-band frequencies. In exchange for these rights and authorizations, the Commission mandated that SpaceX meet certain conditions related to, among other things, deployment milestone and geographic coverage requirements. Specifically, the Commission’s rules require SpaceX to launch and operate “50 percent of” no later than 6 years after grant of the authorization” and “to provide service coverage to (i) all locations as far north as 70 degrees latitude and as far south at 55 degrees latitude for at least 75% of ever 24-hour period and (ii) on a continuous basis through the”
GeoLinks urges the Commission to craft its rules in a way that protects RDOF funding from would-be bidders that seek to subsidize broadband infrastructure that they have already made commitments to the Commission to deploy in exchange for something of value (i.e. operating authority, merger approval, usage rights, etc.). While GeoLinks does not oppose making RDOF funding available for service providers proposing new projects in RDOF-eligible areas (separate and apart from any previously made commitments), GeoLinks believes that allowing service providers to apply for RDOF funds to complete commitments already made would result in wasteful use of finite universal service support and promote “double dipping.”

en | N/A | N/A | By Melissa Rivera I thought I’d built my family a pretty comprehensive family emergency kit. I pictured us after a disaster, waving off offers of additional assistance and, in fact, sharing with others less prepared. (Admit it: you’ve imagined the same thing.) Then I tested it. My family tried to live from our 72-hour emergency kit while we moved from Utah to Virginia. I was oh, so wrong. My original plan was to wait to open the emergency kit until we were on the road, to simulate a disaster. That was a fail the minute we tried to pack the minivan. The kit didn’t fit. I’d designed my emergency kit around surviving an earthquake and the fact that we could just jump our back fence to get to an evacuation point. The kit’s three huge buckets and two plastic totes filled the trunk even before we added camping gear and clothes. We dragged everything back into the house and dumped it out, trashing the place right before some friends came over to help clean the house. We had a lot of junk we didn’t need. For some reason, we had boxes of votive candles. Nothing to place them in, mind you. But, hey, if some church came a-calling, we’d be so ready. For lighting, we had a lantern with the wrong size batteries and two broken flashlights. For cooking we had three can openers, but no scissors or utility knife, two stoves and a box of Sterno cans that stank up the whole room. My third child jammed her finger. As the digit swelled, I grabbed the first-aid kit for medical tape. The kit contained an ankle wrap, a piece of an asthma inhaler and three foil blankets. Fortunately, we still had masking tape around. My children saw the food. My 14-year- old’s reaction was universal. “I don’t want to eat food that’s over a year old,” he grumbled. To be fair, the raisin granola bars were really nasty after they turned stale. The chocolate chip ones weren’t bad, though. They vetoed most of the food, including almost anything that required cooking. However, by the next morning they’d already downed most of the kit’s three-day supply of crackers and dumped out half the breakfast cereal. We had just three hours’ notice for a moving truck’s arrival. In the mad scramble that followed, we accidentally packed every pair of my eldest daughter’s shoes. Hey, no problem, she had a pair of tennis shoes in her emergency kit backpack. Well, ok, it would have been no problem if they still fit her. It wasn’t all bad. When we accidentally threw away my daughter’s toothbrush, we replaced it from the emergency kit. And the kids loved the bubbles, toys, and games I’d packed in the kit. If you want to keep young kids happy, bring lots of bubbles. But one day before we left for our great cross-country adventure, one in which we were supposed to live out of our emergency kit, I had to start over. I learned an emergency kit is not something you just throw together. My kit contained Halloween plates and napkins because I’d tossed them in, thinking they could be useful. But I forgot I already had a few weeks’ supply of disposable dishes. The Halloween dishes were just taking up space. Plan exactly what you’re going to put in your kit, and buy what you need as you plan. Keep track of where supplies are located and how old they are. I learned to consult my children about our food. The kit contained two hot meals per day for the whole family. I didn’t want to cook, and my kids didn’t want to eat the food anyway. We ended up keeping only one of the hot meals and buying picnic-style food my children would eat. I should have updated the emergency kit annually. None of my children’s emergency shoes fit. I learned a well-stocked first aid kit is vital. After my daughter’s finger adventure, I rebuilt my first-aid kit with what I thought was plenty of everything, including all our prescription medicines. Well, a few days later a spider bit my thumb, and I had nothing for the abominable itching and swelling. I learned you never want to buy a solar charger on Amazon. It lasted one day. The thing charged only one device on one day then it wouldn't recharge itself whether we plugged it in or put it in the sun. We had to buy a new battery-powered charger en route. During our week-long trip, my family’s emergency kit helped us through flash flooding, power outage, boredom, stultifying heat and far too many picnics. (None of us wanted to look at peanut butter or granola bars after day five.) Yet we still needed almost-daily shopping trips. So it wasn’t successful. Hopefully I’ll remember this experiment as I begin building a new emergency kit in a new home – and hopefully I won’t need it for Hurricane Irma. |

Larry Jo Pearson
August 27, 1937 — November 5, 2020
Larry J. Pearson
Larry Jo Pearson 83 of Lamar, Colorado passed awayhusband to Dixie Jo Pearson of Lamar, Colorado.
Born August 27, 1937 in the small town of Clyde, Kansas he was the son of Joe and Edna Pearson. Larry’s parents were both survivors of the Depression Era and they would raise Larry to have a strong faith, to know the importance of family, to be a hard worker, and to be tough as nails. Larry did not have a lot growing up, but what he lacked in material possessions he made up ten-fold with the things he did have. The blessings he had were a house filled with love, strong family bonds, faith, growing up in the country and along the banks of the Republican River, and the belief that dreams can come true. Larry’s childhood was filled with adventures that most little boys can only dream of. Larry graduated from Clyde High School in 1955 and would go onto attend college during his senior year that he crossed paths with the incoming freshman Dixie Larson. Dixie would be the one to steal his heart and it would be the beginning of their story together that would last sixty wonderful years. Larry and Dixie wasted no time in getting married. They were wed in August of 1959. Soon after they packed their bags and headed for Chicago, Illinois where Larry began his studies to become a minister. It was during this time Larry realized his true calling in life which was to work with the youth in the education field. At the end of their first year in Chicago they headed to the town of Brighton, Colorado where they would live with Dixie’s parents while Larryaster’s, in Education Administration. Larry was soon hired to be a Social Studies teacher at Lamar High School. It was at this time that Larry and Dixie would begin a new chapter of their lives in the small town of Lamar and they would quickly grow to love the community and people within this town. Larry would go on to serve 32 years in the school district most kids and adults knew him as the Lamar Middle School assistant principal. Once Larry established himself with his education career it was time for him to go after his boyhood dream of owning his own land and farms. Larry accomplished this in 1979 when he and Dixie purchased their first farm north of Lamar. He was proud of his farms and he was grateful for the opportunity to own his own land. It was his dream come true.
Larry was many things in the community of Lamar. He was a dedicated member of the Methodist Church for most of his life. Serving the church and the Lord in whatever ways he could help to spread the Lord’s message. Larry also served on Lamar’s Board of Education for two terms to help Lamar Schools be the best they could be for the students who attended the schools. In his later years he enjoyed spending time volunteering at the Lamar Welcome center visiting with people traveling through and sharing with them all the great things to know about Lamar.
Larry learned at a young age that a person did not need a lot to live a great life and to leave an impact on the people around you. Throughout his 55 years in Lamar and throughout his life Larry did just that whether you knew him as a student going through the school system, a co-worker who worked with him, a person in the community who would see him at the Savage football or basketball games, Larry, loved this town of Lamar and the community. Larry enjoyed hunting, fishing, gardening, farming, reading, growing his faith, traveling, playing cards, and playing and watching sports. Most of all though Larry enjoyed being a family man. His greatest titles in life were Son to Joe and Edna, Husband to Dixie, Father to Saralynn, Marc, Renee, and Jill, and Grandpa to his 14 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren. There are some peoplLarry Pearson our Dad had this impact on many and his light will stay bright for a long time to come. Our family would like to invite anyone who had the opportunity to know Larry to join us for his Celebration of Life on February 20th at 11:00 a.m. at the Elks Club located at 28157 US-287 in Lamar, Colorado. The service will begin at 11:00 to be followed by a taco buffet and time to visit with friends and family immediately afterwards. For those who are unable to make it but would like to watch the service we will have a live feed on Facebook and a zoom link to view it. We look forward to celebrating Larry with all his family, friends, and acquaintances.

en | N/A | N/A | Why are some shows 21 and up only? I used to like it, but when it means Sam can't go, I don't.
21+ shows are the bane of my existance. and will continue to be for the next couple years.
i know with local shows i can't go cos they're all at places where they serve beer. not just bars either...everywhere that serves alcohol. and even if you're not going to try to buy alcohol, you're not allowed in to see the band. my favourite local band broke up in september and they played their last gig which was 21+. i went and said "hi, my name's kim, i'm a big fan of the band, i'm not old enough to go to the show, but i just want to say that i really liked geting to hear you when you played all ages gigs". they were really sorry that they couldn't sneak me in (cos the people at the door are really strict about i.ds) and chatted a while outside (except the drummer who needed to set up his drums) and the drummer even wrote that the singer and bassist talked with a poor 18 year old university student who came by just to say hi...
i was really hoping they'd sneak me into the show...
I'll just tie Sam up outside the door.
its 18+ in Australia...just move here, you'll get to see Idlewild in really small venues too!
why? how old is sam?
And don't tempt me, brettig!!!!!
They are just trying to sort out the riff raff..............
A younger man, eh?
A lot of canadian venues are 19+ (our drinking age) which made it a real pain in the...when I wanted to see shows. and my birthday is near the end of the year (end of Spet) too, so that made me wait even longer to see some shows. Turning 19 was the happiest day of my life (well, not really, but it was close).
Just think meg. In a few months you'll be living in England and wI can't even get into 16+ movies.
In Singapore, there are about four places where you can actually have a decent concert - the Indoor Stadium (big indoor arena), Kallang Theatre (small venue) and Fort Canning Park (outdoor shows). Anything 21+ they'll just dump into the Zouk disco.
This used to suck. I missed some good bnds. :cry:
Hey, I suddenly remembered how they're stricter with the age requirement in Southeast Asia for the movies (I'm originally from the Philippines). The funny thing is that we never had an age requirement to drink. I think the first time I went to a bar was when I was 13 or 14.

en | N/A | N/A | Baby boomers got dream-creamed in the 2008/9 stock market crash. Their blue chip stocks dropped 45% on average – the juniors dropped even more. These are the same investors whose Wealthy Barber's Buy and Hold approach drove the stock markets up, up and away in the 1990s. Their long range financial plans called for compounding returns of 7% or 8% so they could retire rich, like Warren Buffet. The 1990s mutual funds craze lulled a whole generation of investors into the dream of getting rich in the stock market. But the 2008/9 nightmare changed all that.
Since the low in March of 2009, the TSX 60 index has recovered about 85% of the 2008/9 loss. The two year recovery since then (March 2009 to March 2011) has been relatively easy for traders. These Renaissance traders have, by and large, done fine. And those die-hard buyers and holders who just kept on holding have done okay too. If the stock market keeps on going up, they could break even this year. Our concern is that these neophyte traders don't understand how risky trading is.
Consider the past year's action. This is a chart of the Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) representing America's 500 biggest blue chip stocks. It covers the two years from the 2009 low to March 2011. |

We lawyers love to make rules for ourselves.
Despite the relatively clear nature of the rule, courts have not treated it uniformly and its bounds are not well-defined. Without fail, pure non-competition agreements are invalid. Therefore, lawyers cannot be bound by agreements that restrict their practice area or ability to service specific clients.
For its part, Maine goes further than California and declined to adopt an ethics rule similar to Rule 5.6. Lawyers, therefore, are free to sign non-competes without running afoul of that state's code of conduct. Just recently, a federal court in the District of Columbia - which had not addressed the scope of Rule 5.6 - predicted that it would follow New York's majority rule and bar indirect restraints.

en | N/A | N/A | Traversing Tokyo on Day Eighty-Two
Sitting here in the coffee shop thinking about what to say about my day yesterday. It was a day on which I decided to explore the city srtreets and some of the neighborhoods that are prominent in the tour guides. There was some energy stirred within me that needed an outlet.
Tokyo is a big city an amalgamation of some twenty-three prefectures along with some outlying islands and a bit of the surrounding area. The city swells each day as people living in outlying areas travel into it for work and pleasure. It’s not unlike London in this respect.
My ‘hood that I’m staying in is called Akasaka. It lies close to Ginza an area renowned for its food and shopping. That was the first destination. Walking along one can’t help to be looking at all the things all around. Thinking about it now I don’t think I had anything in particular going through my head. Just a focus on heading in the right direction.
Ginza is every bit the shopping district that it’s made out to be. There are numerous little streets as well as large boulevards filled with shops and boutiques selling all kinds of fashions and accessories. It’s kind of bewildering to walk around in. The usual suspects are there. Those luxury brands that everyone covets as if they were exclusive and unique but the only thing that makes them so is the barrier put up by their price.
Moving on through this district I went by Tokyo Station but this time from the financial district side. The tall blocks of buildings square and imposing look the part of the suit and tie men that inhabit them. There is some flair and variation here and there but their imposing height and size speak to the power that is wielded here. I kept walking in a zig-zag line spotting a place to take a shot or something worth examining more catching my eye.
Taking breaks in coffee shops that were not name brand but more comfortable with their wood paneled walls and jazz softly playing in the background. These are little oases for those who enjoy a bit of fresh air as they talk about their day. These activities are not allowed when walking down the street but only in designated spots where all those congregate. These breaks allowed me to read up more about the places I’d be visiting along this walk.
Somehow zig-zagging along I ended up by Ochanomizu station and liked the flavor of the area there. It was time to eat and I found a little place to get some food. It’s amazing how little space is needed for a restaurant. There is no waitress just a vending machine where you purchase your ticket from and then give it to the lady behind the counter who then prepares it with the cook. The portion was nice and when you’re done you give the tray back to them and make space for the next person to eat. It’s like a fast food joint in that respect and there are many of these all over the place. Here in Tokyo it is proper etiquette to clean up after yourself. If you have a cup of coffee or anything else you put your remains in the space provided. There is someone who comes around to wipe the tables but they are not there to pick up and clean up everyone’s mess all the time. I just have a picture of people too lazy to throw away their cup and just leaving it there as they go.
Akihabara station was close and in that area is a large concentration of Anime places. The area was packed with people who now we’re leaving work and going out to play. I was amazed by the sights and sounds there. Women were dressed in those little outfits handing out flyers to go to visit their establishment. It’s all role playing and have your picture taken with them there. I guess one has to be into that whole genre to really understand the costumes and culture on display. Sadly I am not one of those people. I may have an idea of who and what these characters are and maybe I understand the appeal of escaping into these roles. To escape the reality of this imperfect world as organized and designed as it may be into a world even more idealized. The one thing that does strike me though is that these characters are all cute. Cute in the sense that the phenomenon portrays an impossible feminine ideal with an innocence on the exterior. It may hide the inner darkness that is not exposed but hidden in those rooms up on the upper floors at a high rate per hour for your eyes only. It may be why I find bits of the culture with respect to men and women kind of strange.
What a trip though. Walking along there was one of these girls signing autographs and displaying herself. I couldn’t believe the crowd of men gathered around snapping away. I joined in to examine later what the fuss was about. Is this where our western society is headed or are we already there? It’s one thing to desire esthetic beauty but at the same time are we forgetting something else that’s more important? To me it seems like western women are a bit more empowered. There is a bit more ease to communicate and interact. I find that if I make eye contact their eyes here quickly look away never to return their gaze.
Eventually I made it to an area under the tracks that sold handicraft stuff. It’s called 2k540 and it is in the Ueno area. It is elegant and quiet in there. All the stores there are independent operators selling their wares. They had their little machines there on display. There were a lot of wood and leather products along with an assortment of jewelry and clothing stores. I’m interested in this as it is the means by which new industries will form. Big conglomerates and major brands have come to dominate our culture and choices. In a way they are good as they for the most part try to have a standard but in other ways with their dominance they have eliminated uniqueness from our lives. We feel like individuals but express it with the same fashion and the same look. These big brands are found in every country I’ve been to so far on my trip.
The last destination on my trip today was the Skytree. This is a new tower that was built to replace Tokyo Tower in order to broadcast television signals. It is over six hundred meters tall and is now the second tallest structure on the planet. The clouds were low and rain was immanent so I never paid the price to go up there to see the lights of the city from above. I did however stop and take some pictures by the riverside with it in the background.
It was late now and fortunately it was easy to get back to the hotel. When I got out the rain was falling and people were rushing to get somewhere else with their umbrellas out. I got myself a drink at a local pub if I could call it that. I watched the spectacle unfold before me. The place was crowded and the waitress was having trouble keeping up. It was a nice way to end the day even though there wasn’t anyone to try to engage in a conversation with. Not worried though people will come along…

</s> Chapter 2: Envisioning Your Novell to Windows Migration Project
Setting Up the Core Project Team for a Novell to Windows Migration Project
This sectionrequired to complete the first phase, the Envisioning Phase, of a Novell NetWare to Windows Server 2003 project.
By the end of the phase, the team and all major stakeholders for the project should have agreed upon the following conceptual areas and documented their understanding in a vision/scope document:
Describes the current state of the environment (at a high level) with respect to the technology being considered.
A solution concept
Describes at a high level how the solution will solve the business problem in terms of the approaches it will take to build and deliver the solution.
Together, these conceptual areas comprise a high-level description of the project that will form the basis for further planning. They represent a baseline and may need to be revised as planning progresses and new information dictates—thus the vision/scope docuchange, subject to change control.
Envisioning Phase Major Milestone: Vision/Scope Approved
The number of project team members for a Novell to Windows Server 2003 migration . In small organizations, a project team may only consist of a manager and a developer. In contrast, a large organization may have multiple participants from any number of departments. In fact, the entire team may not be set up until the Envisioning Phase is well under way. The UMPG defines a clear process for setting up a team.
Sk (SAN) (if applicable in your environment)
Before you can migrate to ayou must first determine what that environment will look like and then develop a migration strategy for how to get there.
A Vision for the Solution
Defining the Goals
Typical business goals for a migration from Novell to Windows include but are not limited to:
What is the cost of system maintenance? How many people would you need to maintain the system?
Increasing the usability of the system
The applications on the system should be easy to develop and use. Systems that offer integrated security and development environments for applications are optimal.
The system should provide easy, secure, reliable, and scalable ways for the administrators to install, manage, and maintain the operating system, new software, existing software, and patches.

To some, Russia and China make a perfect couple - a marriage between the world's-largest energy producer and the world's-largest energy consumer.Under deals signed in recent days, Russia will soon be supplying 10 percent of China's imported oil and coal. In other deals, China is investing billions of dollars in Russian iron mines, aluminum smelters, timber companies, and corporate farms.During the past decade, trade between Russia and China increased 12-fold, allowing China to dethrone Germany as Russia's top trading partner. Since 2007, the fastest growing region in Russia has been the Far East, the section of Siberia that borders China.But Russian sales of cars and weapons to China have fallen dramatically. Moscow-based economic analyst Chris Weafer says Russians do not like to look in the mirror and see themselves as raw materials supplier to China, the factory to the world. No Chinese commitments beyond energy
"President Medvedev and the Russian side, they wanted to talk more about China's involvement in the modernization and investment into Russian industry, beyond energy. But when they got there, all the Chinese wanted to talk about was how to get more energy,'' Weafer said. In the only manufacturing deal announced, a Chinese company agreed to help build trucks in the Urals.If China is not interested in helping Russians build better products, it appears to have unlimited appetite for importing Russian energy - oil, gas, and electricity.At present, the bulk of China's imported oil and gas comes by tankers passing through a geographic chokepoint: the Straits of Malacca. To cut this strategic weakness, China wants to develop energy imports by land.Last week, the presidents of Russia and China symbolically inaugurated the first oil pipeline from Russia. Beginning in January, Siberian oil is to move 1,000 kilometers through this pipeline to Northeast China.The Chinese want this to be followed by a gas pipeline. Both sides promise a deal will be cut by next summer, but negotiations about price have continued for 10 years. " Cutting Russia's bargaining power
While Russia holds out for the best price, gas demand in Europe is weak, shale gas makes North America self-sufficient in gas, and shiploads of liquefied natural gas cruise the oceans looking for buyers. Further cutting Russia's bargaining power, new gas and oil pipelines stretch thousands of kilometers from Central Asia to China. Chris Weafer again. a." A fact highlighted while Mr. Medvedev visited Beijing, Turkmenistan's president inaugurated a compression station what will boost that nation's gas exporting capacity to China to 40 billion cubic meters a year - more than the entire volume Russia agreed long ago to sell to China. |

TEHRAN, Iran -The caricatures of the prophet,at cited freedom of expression, have outraged Muslims and generated protests worldwide.
An Iranian Web site for cartoonists carried a reproduction of the Brazilian entry and printed a notice at the top of the page that indicated it might also be connected to a conference sponsored by Iran's Foreign Ministry to examine what it called the scientific evidence surrounding the Holocaust.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060213/...NlYwN5bmNhdA--
Now, in this article there was a entry from a Brazilian and reports of an Australian putting in cartoons. But there was no reports of Iranians putting in cartoons.
So it is kind of interesting what is going on, because this is not iran anymore, it is a global cartoon contest.

en | N/A | N/A | ‘The Office’ Series Finale Spoilers: Steve Carell Explains Decision to Not Return
We’d be surprised if ‘The Office‘ series finale didn’t find some way to either include, or pay tribute to departed series star Steve Carell in the series’ final hour, but now Carell himself has even jumped on the recent bandwagon of denying character Michael Scott will appear before Dunder-Mifflin closes its doors this May. Carell recently spoke out about his decision not to return to ‘The Office’ series finale, but should we believe him? Judge for yourself inside!
NBC president Bob Greenblatt was the one to dash our ‘Office’ hopes of seeing Steve Carell’s Michael Scott one last time when the long-running NBC comedy airs its series finale this May, but now Carell himself has gone on record explaining his apparent decision not to reprise the character one last time..
We’re still keeping an eyebrow raised that ‘The Office’ will still find a small place for Carell to appear, potentially over Skype as with Stephen Colbert’s recent appearance, but we’ll take the actor’s statements at face value for now. ‘The Office’ series finale will air as a one-hour episode in May.
What say you? Do you think Carell is bluffing about his ‘Office’ return? How would you like to see the Dunder-Mifflin crew close out the series? Give us your ‘Office’ finale predictions in the comments! |

Abstract. In this paper we implement a degree day snow and glacier melt model into the Dyology (DECIPHeR) model. The purpose is to develop a h, yet is computationally efficient enough to include model uncertainty in streamflow predictions. The model is evaluated by simulating monthly discharge at six gauging stations in the Naryn River catchment (57,833 km2) in Central Asia over the period 1951 to a variable end date between 1980 and 1995 depending on the availability of discharge observations. The spatial distribution of simulated snow cover is validated against MODIS weekly snow extent for the years 2001–2007. Discharge is calibrated by selecting parameter sets using Latin Hypercube sampling and assessing the model performance using six evaluation metrics.
The model shows good performance at simulating monthly discharge for the evaluation period (NSE is 0.74 < NSE < 0.87) and validation period (0.7 < NSE < 0.9) where the range of NSE values represent the 5th–95th percentile prediction limits across the gauging stations. The exception is the Uch-Kurgan station which exhibits a reduction in model performance during the validation period attributed to commissioning of the Toktugal reservoir in 1975 which impacted the observations. % of the snow extent on average (2001–20 t.

So I'm assuming that the novelty is the model ishe other point regards the application of GLUE and the use of the top 0.5% of model simulations to represent a population of behavioural models. The 0.5% seems arbitrary and, therefore, it's not clear to me what the merit of including these in the analysis is. What do the uncertainty bounds of an arbitrary population of models mean? Could the authors please justify the use of using the top 0.5% of simulations rather than, say, defining a more objective set of "good behaviour" criteria e.g. based on the different metrics of model performance used in the study.

en | N/A | N/A | Q: How soon after an occupational exposure should the health care worker be tested?
How often should you be tested for PPD?
If you are a health care worker, this should be done yearly. Otherwise, every 5- 10 years is usually acceptable. As always, consult your physician for your particular circumstances.
How often should lead aprons be tested?
The only way for someone to find out if they have HIV or AIDS is to get tested. If you want to know if your boyfriend has HIV, you should ask him; you may also suggest that you go get tested for all STIs -- including HIV -- together.
What does it mean to be tested positive?
LSD is tested for with a urine test. However, LSD is rarely tested for.
How soon after an occupational exposure should health care worker be tested?
It depends on the type of exposure and the standard testing guidelines in use at that time. Workers would be tested "as soon as possible" but within the standard testing guidelines. For example, the test for HIV-AIDS must give time for the virus to establish itself and the body to respond to the virus. So there is no immediate or rapid test. Scientists work to decrease the amount of time between exposure and test, but they can't create such a test if the pathogen needs time to develop and the body needs time to respond.
No. There is an incubation period. That is why you should get tested every 3 months for an entire year after suspected exposure. Really, it would not hurt to get tested immediately after the potential exposure as well in case you contracted it before then.
Can you marry if you were 11 months HIV tested negative?
It is advised that you get tested for HIV/AIDS 3 months after your last potential exposure. This means that when you get tested the test only covers you for dates up to three months before this date. So you should be fine if you have tested negative 11 months after a potential exposure.
Hard hats are tested to withstand how many foot-pounds of impact?

Should you get tested for swine flu if you have chickenpox with fever and throat pain?
If you have chickenpox, you should stay home unless you have contacted your health care provider who specifically advised you to come into the office. |

OVERVIEW: What is a Borrible?.
Borribles form their own groups, which are like tiny little clans. These groups protect each other at all costs and even have their own claimed territory.
One of the first things that stands out about The Borribles is it is an extremely violent, gritty novel. I was surprised when I learned that many people classified it as a children's book. It definitely has a lot of violent, bloody scenes and the life the Borribles live is not all rainbows and butterflies. This book would probably be classified as a YA book by today's standards.
What is there to like about The Borribles? It has a detailed, solid plot that moves at warp speed. It was amazing just how fast I was getting through the novel and before I knew it, it was over. The adventure scenes are detailed, but not to the point that they are over-fluffed up. Readers are given a sense of adventuring alongside The Borribles, but they aren't experiencing every, single mind-numbing part of the adventure.
When the novel ends, there is a desire to pick up the second book right away. And I highly recommend doing that, as one novel completes and blends right into the second novel. It also helps to relieve some of the nagging questions some readers may have about the Borribles and their world.
Now, there is probably a concern that a book written in 1976 might not be relevant in today's world, especially an urban fantasy. The Borribles really fits in with today's world. Sure, some of the social commentary might be a bit dated, but for the most part, The Borribles is just as good when read today as it was back in 1976. This is probably because the world in the novel is unique. People will be able to relate it to London, but there are aspects that make it unique and fun to read.
I've been looking for under the radar older works of science-fiction and fantasy to read, lately - thanks for the head's up! The Borribles sounds like something to try on, especially if the world-building is unique, as you say.
You are welcome. I am glad you are enjoying the lookback series. I plan on highlighting titles every 2 weeks (roughly).
And considering its only 250 pages, it isn't like you put a huge time commitment into reading it. </s> Li50 percent of livestockCommodity subsidies in Essex County, Massachusetts totaled $2.851y |

Nov. 8, 2012 | 0 comments Pfizer Animal Health, incontinues to support youth in agriculture through its Performance Pays Spring 2012 program.
The spring program raised $1,173,421 to benefit FFA chapters nationwid, new t.
Since its inception in 2008, the support program has raised more than $4.7 million to benefit students through these organizations.
"The ongoing partnership through this program with veterinary clinics and animal health suppliers has provided much-needed financial support for FFA chapters and veterinary students,"Pfizer Animal Health.
Kelly added, "Each and every veterinary clinic, retailer and animal health distributor understands the growing importance of supporting tomorrow's agricultural leaders, and this program gives them a chance to directly impact these young people."
Between Jan. 1 and March 31, 2012, a portion of funds from purchases of eligible Pfizer Animal Health cattle and equine products was directed to local FFA chapters, and/or veterinary student scholarships through the AABP and AAEP foundations.
As a result, this spring's program means more than 1,300 designated FFA chapters from 46 states collectively received more than $1 million to support chapter activities.
In additionreceived more than $86,500 and the AAEP Foundation received $16,000.
This support makes a difference in the lives of FFA members and veterinary students. It means an opportunity for the Scott Community High School FFA chapter in Scott City, KS, to improve its chapter and community.
"FFA gives students a broad knowledge of agriculture, but it's not just agriculture. It also teaches leadership skills and helps prepare us for later on in life, whether preparing for college or for the workplace," says Tyler Hall, chapter reporter, Scott Community High School FFA. "The support helps a lot. It gives us more time to focus on chapter development instead of just on fundraising."
Financial support also is making a difference for people like Timothy Perano, a formertudent who received a $5,000 scholarship from
The money helped alleviate some financial pressure with the opening of his own practice, Perano Veterinary Practice, located in Jackson, CA, immediately following graduation.
"We are grateful for this opportunity to offer students the chance to focus on their studies and future careers - not the cost of tuition," says C. on chairman. "We want to give every student the opportunity to extend their education, and the c."

Abstract / Description: We present continuum and molecular line observations at 230 and 345 GHz from the Submillimeter Array (SMA) toward three protostars in the Perseus L1448N region. The data are from the large project “Mass Assembly of Stellar Systems and their Evolution with the SMA.” Three dust continuum sources, Source B, Source NW, and Source A, are detected at both frequencies. These sources have corresponding emission peaks in C18O (J=2\to 1), 13CO (J=2\to 1), and HCO+ (J=4\to 3), and have offsets with N2D+ (J=3\to 2) peaks. High angular resolution data from a complementary continuum survey with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array show that Source B is associated with three 8 mm continuum objects, Source NW with two, and Source A remains single. These results suggest that multiplicity in L1448N exists at different spatial scales from a few thousand AU to <100 AU. Velocity gradients in each source obtained from two-dimensional fits to the SMA C18O emission are found to be perpendicular to within 20° of the outflow directions as revealed by 12CO (J=2\to 1). We have observed that Sources B and NW with multiplicity have higher densities than Source A without multiplicity. This suggests that thermal Jeans fragmentation can be relevant in the fragmentation process. However, we have not observed a difference in the ratio between rotational and gravitational energy between sources with and without multiplicity. We also have not observed a trend between non-thermal velocity dispersions and the level of fragmentation. Our study has provided the first direct and comprehensive comparison between multiplicity and core properties in low-mass protostars, although based on small number statistics. |

en | N/A | N/A | With Joe Biden set to become president-elect, each side needs to take stock of where they missed. And I certainly will write about my misses (the Ohio one is terrible) in the weeks ahead.
The lesson of 2020 is that Biden’s voters were correct that Trump’s supporters can’t grasp how much of the country despises Donald Trump. Trump’s loss is built on massive pro-Biden turnout in cities, along with Biden’s gains in the Suburbs. That’s perhaps best encapsulated by Cobb County, Georgia. Hillary Clinton won the county by just over a point. Biden won it by 14.3 points. He won 62,000 more votes there, which will easily surpass his margin in a state that hadn’t gone Democratic since 1996.
The other lesson of 2020 is that Trump’s voters were correct that Biden’s supporters have no idea how many people love Trump. Trump came closer than I thought, and he received way more votes than he did in 2016.
In a period of examination, it’s important to beat back faulty narratives. And “Trafalgar got things right” just won’t die.
That did not happen. Not even close. The exit polls leave a lot to be desired but here is Trump’s Black support in them: 6% (PA), 7% (WI), 9% (MI), 11% (GA). Even if you distrust the exits (which is reasonable), Biden’s winning in most major cities by more than Clinton. From Kansas City to Columbus. From Denver to Atlanta. The story is the same in many other major American metropolitan areas: Biden turned out a ton of people that didn’t vote in 2016, and he won them at high rates. It’s hard to make any convincing case that Trump won over 20% of the Black vote.
The Trafalgar folks would say, in flashing lights, “Well, we barely had Trump up in those states, we were within our margin of error.” But that’s what happens when you basically have every poll as Trump +2 in the states he loses. If he wins, you say, “The liberal media missed again.” And if he wins, then you get to claim nobody understood Trump was as close as you did.
In the 2018 Georgia governor’s race, they had Kemp winning by 12. He won by 1.4. They missed his margin by 10.6 points.
They missed the 2018 Nevada Senate race by eight points, incorrectly predicting a three point Heller win when he lost by five points.
They missed the 2018 Arizona Senate race. They called a McSally win by two points and she lost by 2.3.
Trafalgar missed the 2018 Texas Senate race by 6.4 points. They had Cruz winning by nine points when he won by 2.4.
In their final big miss in 2018, they incorrectly called a two point win for the Republican gubernatorial candidate. Nevada has a Democratic governor—by a 4.1 point margin.
Cahaly really might be on to something with finding different voters. The polls had big misses in places in 2020. Susan Collins trailed in every poll. She’s going to cruise to re-election. Trafalgar has done well in Florida, as they’ve called the last four big races in the state.
But Cahaly won’t release his method. With plenty of big polling misses—including so many in his polls—he should bring his method public. Maybe he’s finding Trump’s white voters or detecting a Cuban shift in Florida. If he has a way to reach those people, then a public dialogue could help him figure out why he’s missed so badly in Georgia and had a map that missed five states. Maybe we’d find out why he thought Minnesota was Kanye dependent.
My fear is that Cahaly will come away from 2020 without anyone looking back at how many races he’s called incorrectly. He proclaimedput Biden over the top. But he shouldn’t proclaim victory. He predicted the wrong candidate would win, and his polls leave a lot to be desired over the two two cycles. Plenty of other pollsters have missed big, but they’re not out there claiming vindication. Cahaly shouldn’t either. Any love for him should be locked down.

The 1995 proposed settlement between the US tobacco industry and the US government, where by the tobacco industry will pay $360 billion dollars over 25 years to local state authorities to cover healthcare services for smokers, was reached in return for considerably limiting the future liability of the cigarette manufacturers.
Essentially the agreement afforded the tobacco industry a release from the growing public sentiment and movement towards mass litigation of smokers suing tobacco manufacturers. While the sums agreed are huge, in return the tobacco manufacturers were freed from a number of legal liabilities, the first to acknowledge and apologize for past misconduct, and the second, to disclose secret documents from inside the industry. |

en | N/A | N/A | Smart businesses have an approach to risk management which goes beyond compliance And corporate risk management reporting needs to play a key role in supporting both the risk process and the strategic
Recent studies have demonstrated that and regulations is the main driver bThis comes as no surprise, given government initiatives such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in the US, the Turnbull/Combined Code for corporate governance in the UK and increased London Stock Exchange and SEC mandates for risk management responsibility at board director level.
As a result, many companies are producing central risk management policies and annual risk assessments, detailing their top risks and, in the better cases, providing an overview of what actions have been assigned to the risk committee. While this appears to satisfy the reporting accountants during the annual review, is it going far enough in terms of meeting the interests of good business management and maintaining shareholder value?
Corporate compliance is not enough for business growth
Organisations appear to have identified the fact that if they are found to be non-compliant with corporate governance requirements, shareholders will start to ask uncomfortable questions. If not answered positively, such questions could lead to serious impact on the organisation, with the possible consequences of loss in share value or an increased regulatory reporting regime.
In looking to provide this positive response publicly, a listed organisation requires a management strategy with a high level risk management framework and corporate reporting structure to ensure that it does not fall foul of the new and ever increasing requirements.
This should be encouraging news, as an organisation that is able to demonstrate talent and foresight when dealing with this type of risk through its internal controls and processes, will also be able to deal with all the other risks that an uncertain world throws at the business. Or will it?
History, as well as audits of corporate risk registers of compliantindicate otherwise. Problems in dealing with corporate risks seem to stem from a lack of correlation between the corporate risk register and detailed risk profiles related to underlying business units, assets, functions and programmes.
The top risks identified at board level tend to be highly generic and show no evidence of either being cascaded down to the rest of the business or of having been established following escalation or aggregation of emerging risks within the business. The impression given is that, when confronted with the compliance issue, senior managers gather to brainstorm a set of risks without making reference to the risks the business has already identified.
This same pattern permeates through the exposure assessments against the top risks. In some assessments, risks are scored using a crude qualitative scheme, resulting in an analysis that reveals little more than that the company has some 'red' risks which will soon turn to 'amber' or 'green'.
In other circumstances, detailed quantitative analysis tools are used inappropriately, resulting in Monte Carlo analyses, stating how the company's risk exposure has, for example, been reduced from £213.45m and mitigated down to £98.34m at a 90% confidence level, against a contingency budget of £120m. Such analyses are often based on estimates for individual risks which are rounded to the nearest £10m. This illusory accuracy may provide comfort to the board, but ultimately cannot be relied upon.
In both cases, it is extremely difficult to be assured that the potential impact on theives is well understood at board level. If the board does not truly understand the problems, how can it be expected to solve them?
Audits have also shown that risk executive committee meetings tend to revolve around a superficial review of the generic top risks without much attempt to drill down into the potential problem areas.
These issues are symptomatic of a number of things. Firstly, that an organisation is struggling to communicate its risks between the tiers of management hierarchy. Secondly, and perhaps as a result, the board isrisks and how they will impact upon the objectives of the organisation. Therefore, it would appear that a compliance-driven approach led purely from the board room can result in the attitude that an organisation is healthy so long as the appropriate boxes are ticked.
This implies that there needs to be a change in approach at board level.
Rather than relying solely on their own knowledge to make judgements about impending risks, senior managers need to be aware of risks that are rising up within their organisation.
To be effective, risk information needs to be transparent from executive level, through to the management and operational levels of an organisation (and back up the ladder). It also needs to be open to scrutiny and challenge, as it is only through the transparent communication of risk that the decision-making process can be supported, as it should be, by the risk management process.
This is not to say that the board should be micro-managing risks across the organisation. The board's role is to ensure that the organisation as a whole is managing its risks effectively and to judge when an emerging risk, highlighted for attention by managers within the organisation, has major implications for key business objectives. When managers have identified and prioritised this information for the board, the board must then take this knowledge and use it to develop a risk-informed business strategy to control risk.
The days when risk management could be effectively carried out in a business independently, in silos, are gone. It is not sufficient to identify a set of risks and file them on the risk register. and mitigation.
The culture of the business should support the need (and ease) for every manager to take responsibility, not only for identifying and managing the risks in their own area, but also for understanding the implications of the risk in the wider context of the business. Having the right people know when a risk needs to be escalated and having the process and the tools to do so is essential to good corporate risk management.
In modern businesses, risk information needs to be transparent and available when people require it. It needs to be easily communicated both up through the management hierarchy and across the business. Using a central data repository for risk information including quantified assessments, mitigation plans and responses allows the instant communication of vital information across the enterprise. Ideally, in addition to an escalation process, a drill-down capability should be available, so that someone reviewing the corporate risk register should be able to access the information underlying and supporting these top risks. Categorisation of risks can help identify where connected risks contribute to a large corporate risk. This sort of analysis is essential in providing the data from the business and communicating it to the board. Members of the board are unlikely to trawl through thousands of risks to understand the threat to a single high level objective, so it is important to be able to filter and search the data for relevant information.
A powerful filtering and prioritisation mechanism, to provide an effective tool for slicing and dicing the data is essential. Using established risk categorisation breakdown structures within the recording and search functions will allow common risk themes to be identified across the organisation.
These themes (or pools of common risks) can then be linked to an existing strategic or corporate risk and at the same time improve the definition andof the risk.
Building the information for corporate risks based on greater detail available within the operational levels of business, means better informed business decisions can be made and , which not only deal with the corporate risk, but address the many connected risks around the business. Under a 'silo' compliance approach, where there is no transparency, these opportunities for shared mitigation plans are often overlooked.
Although the approach described above will improve the definition of high level risks and allow effective mitigation plans to be developed, this alone will still not provide an effective corporate view. It is also essential when assessing corporate risks to consider what exactly will be impacted by the risk. In the case of corporate risks it will be the key objectives of the organisation that are impacted.
To achieve an effective approach, the model needs to be extended to support a relationship between the corporate risk register and higher level objectives (HLOs), related keyis will firmly connect the corporate risks to the business plan, which should detail these objectives and indicators. Such a relationship is detailed in the diagram.
The alignment of good quality, well defined corporate risks to key corporate objectives and performance indicators forms the foundation for a risk-based approach to strategic business planning and aligns corporate risk reporting with the business performance reports.
With this information available, reports can be designed to ensure that executives deal with the real threats and opportunities to the success of the business and when a decision is required, it is supported by clear, concise and accessible information.
Once an initial framework has been set up, risks have been identified, assessed, and plans have been put in place, it falls to the corporate risk report to do two things:
- monitor performance against the planned mitigations
- monitor the performance of the planned mitigations.
The first process translates into the question 'Did we do what we said we would?' - it is vital that mitigation plans are not allowed to slip, because to delay mitigation leaves the company exposed.
The second process is highly important in the context of corporate governance.
It is effectively asking the question, 'Did the controls we put in place work as planned?'
The stewardship of this information, in terms of highlighting which key risks have ineffective controls and strategies, will start to focus attention and form the basis of a proactive process of drilling down and getting a real understanding of the key drivers and the effectiveness of the strategies in place. This in turn will facilitate the definition of more cost effective strategies using real and financial options.
In essence, the risk executive committee agenda should comprise a drill-down process on one or two key risks that will provide confidence to the executive body that the framework in place is achieving results in terms of avoiding surprises and adding to shareholder value.
In summary, corporate risk management reporting, as the communication tool between the wider risk process and the board, planning process.
The reports need to communicate, simply, clearly and concisely, in the language of the business, the true nature and magnitude of the threats and opportunities affecting the business objectives, how these affect the company's position overall and what is being done about it.
Alongside this, reports need to assure the board that the risk management process which underpins this information is working effectively by escalating serious issues, actively managing the risks that are not escalated and can provide any necessary further information needed to assist the business decision-making process.
To be effective, the corporate reporting process must be supported by a data repository, with the right tools to support risk management (and the different user communities) throughout the enterprise.
When corporate risk reporting works well, the board will make the right decisions, when it does not, they will be taking a step into the dark.
Smart businesses are going beyond the regulatory requirements such as Turnbull and Sarbanes-Oxley and are now seeking to derive real value from true enterprise risk management reporting.

ERM SYSTEMS
More than a decade ago, the 'balanced scorecard' represented an advance in the field of measuring corporate performance, providing a framework for companies to evaluate both financial and non-financial measures, s. Subsequently, The Conference Board developed its 'dashboard' concept to take the balanced scorecard from a two-dimensional to a three-dimensional view of corporate performance measures.
The Conference Board has now adopted a new approach to developing an enterprise risk management (ERM) system. This goes beyond both the scorecard and dashboard concepts to not only identify strategic success measures, but also to link them to risk factors. This system allows companies to assess where earnings may be vulnerable and to prioritise risk mitigation strategies.
The Conference Board's research report, Enterprise Risk Management Systems: Beyond the Balanced Scorecard, published last year describes this approach.
The report, which is written by Carolyn Kay Brancato is available at=971

IATA CONFERENCE
Enterprise risk management (ERM) is the subject of one of the half-day workshops to be held at the IATA Airline Insurance & Risk Management Conference 2006: Are We There Yet?
The workshop on practical ERM techniques and tools will cover:
- internal environment, objective setting, risk tolerance
- risk identification and assessment techniques (quantitative benchmarking, qualitative)
- risk responses (policies, procedures, etc)
ERM also features in two additional sessions
- 'Enterprise risk management - benchmarking standards', Julia Graham, chief risk officer, DLA Piper Rudnick Gray Cary UK LLP, will discuss the development of risk management standards by the British Standards Institution.
The committee developing the standards, chaired by this speaker, will contribute its workn.
- 'Compliance, management of risk or both? Has your organisation truly embraced the concept of ERM and put it into practice?' will look at whether ERM has been embedded into the corporate culture or whether it is simply a question of corporate governance and compliance.
The conference will be held on 4-5 April. Further details are available at www.iata.org/NR/rdonlyres/E98697B5-57DD-4825-A12C-F2D8CAB52F47/0/AIR06_BRO_WEB.pdf.

en | N/A | N/A | CAUGHT UNAWARES: Loud thunder, fierce lightning changed the Saturday evening climate. —Photo: Surya Sridhar
Hyderabad: Pre-monsoon showers on Saturday gave the city a fleeting glimpse of what could be in store in the coming days.
Heavy claps of thunder, fierce lightning and a shower that caught many unawares on the streets changed the Saturday evening frame in the city, which was wilting under hot and humid conditions over the last couple of days. In fact, the temperature, which had come down last week after a couple of showers, had shot up to be recorded at 40.4 degrees Celsius on Saturday. Things, however, cooled down after the evening showers.
The showers left many areas in the dark with power supply being disrupted, while the traffic too went for a toss at most major junctions and thoroughfares in the city.
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), Hyderabad, while stating there would be no major change in the maximum temperatures on Sunday, has indicated that rain or thundershowers could occur towards evening or in the night. The situation could be the same on Monday as well.
Private weather forecast agency Skymet attributed the weather conditions to moist southwesterly winds that were strengthening formation of thunderclouds. Pre-monsoon showers are expected over the area for the next couple of days, it said. Skymet has also said that with the advancement of the monsoon into more parts of South India, the rains would pick up pace over Telangana, including Hyderabad. The arrival of the monsoon, the agency said, could be between June 5 and June 10.

en | N/A | N/A | What is Reddit's opinion of Baseus Monitor Light Bar Monitor Lamp with Touch Control, Dimmable Screen Desk Light Bar with 3 Light Modes, Computer Monitor Light for Home Office, USB Powered LED Desk Lamp Keyboard Light, Black?
79 reviews of this product found across Reddit:
I wanted to get one but just didn't want to spend the money on the BenQ light bar just to find out that I dont like it. But after a year of use on this amazon one, its damn awesome. I start work pretty early and some late nights, its nice to be able to turn on a light a dim it down. also the 3 color temps are awesome. This one is pretty well built bar itself is aluminum and the clamp is heavy plastic. On sale right now for $39
Got mine in Asia, but it's this same model on Amazon. Looks to be on sale at 50% off which ends up to $19. I have no idea how legit this is, but if it's really the same one I have, then that's a pretty solid deal
Im pretty sure its this one, but I could be wrong.
I have this one, and it does everything I need it to. Three hues, and a variable dimmer for each setting
The one I have is this, it has warm, bright white, and a mix of the two. Its brightness is adjustable and is powered by a USB-C connection. The great thing is it's great quality without breaking the bank, hope it helps!
I actually just found the right placement for the light and used double sided tape so it won’t move because I was having issues clamping with the shell of the monitor being too wide.
You could perhaps get a monitor light bar?. Unrelated, but if desk space is an issue, maybe a monitor arm too
Looks it this one, I have the same one.
No they don't cause glare, they adjust slightly to direct the light down onto the desk. I like them a lot. My desk feels dark without them now. A lot of people opt for the more expensive BenQ lights, but I got these:
Yes the lamp is very comfortable for reading, you can adjust the brightness and temperature!
It has QC problems, coil whine on low brightnesses and can go undead (stop working at lower brightnesses but suddenly working again) if rapidly switch light temperature.
A. I don't eat Cheetos at the desk, and wash my hands like we are in a pandemic.
I did ran into an issue with my BASEUS monitor light not working with this monitor due to the round hump on the back was interfering with the overhang of the monitor light. If your webcam have an overhang support design, it might not work. Here's the link to my monitor light.
I only got it yesterday, so I can’t speak to the longevity. The build quality seems excellent as it’s all aluminum. Given that this light is less than half the price of the BenQ model, I was a bit skeptical, but reviews have said it holds up.

Found one that works after trying 3 total.
Source: I've been FT WFH for over a decade.
I find it unpleasant to wear headphones for long periods of time. I wear glasses, and they push the frame into the sides of my skull. I don't like earbuds because they're uncomfortable and don't cancel out noise. Instead, I use my desktop speakers. Just make sure your microphone isn't too close to them, or other callers will hear echoing.
Put your microphone and monitors on adjustable arms for optimal layout and configurability. I've rearranged my office dozens of times, at least; I always feel like I can do better, and it's good to have options.
If you prefer standing, make sure you have somewhere to sit when you get tired, sore, etc., even if it's just to take a break. But don't make it too convenient, or you'll fall back into your old ways.
Even with multiple monitors, take advantage of virtual desktops. At a minimum, one for work and one for play. For more complex tasks you may want to branch out into more than two.
Depending on the windows you keep open, you may benefit from additional monitors or higher-resolution monitors. I have four 4K screens, and even with virtual desktops, I still run out of space.
If you have to run a VPN for work, check whether it reroutes your traffic. If it does, run it inside a virtual machine or on another computer.
You can use programs like Synergy to share keyboard, mouse, and clipboard among multiple computers.
When deciding when to take a break or call it a day, try to aim for the end of a task. It sucks to come back to your desk and have no idea where you left off.
Keep your computers off the floor (due to dust), and away from where your beverages might spill.
Windows I find useful to keep open all the time (see my above points about screen space):
IM buddy list / contact list / list of chat windows
One monitor mostly reserved for referencing technical documents, it's super useful to have them side-by-side vs the thing I need to use them for (coding to a spec, etc).
Additional job-specific and task-specific windows
When arranging your workspace and desktop windows, keep this rule in mind: Things you use most often should be directly in front of you. Things you use less often can be further away; it's okay if those require neck-turning or swiveling, depending on frequency and duration.
Get out of the house at least once a week. Spend time outside when your schedule allows. Go for a walk, drive, etc.
Wired things generally work better than wireless things.
I find it helpful to have a central area for charging things, and a central area for plugging portable things in (docking area). I keep these areas separate so I don't confuse the cables. A powered USB charger charges faster than my computer's USB ports, and I don't plug things into my computer just for power (because I'm paranoid).
Get a quality UPS or two, depending on power usage. Make sure your router and other networking stuff is also on a UPS.
Don't put your phone number in your E-mail signature unless you are absolutely required to do so.
Arrange your desk for easy access (see #12 above). L-shaped desks are better than straight/rectangle desks, U-shaped desks are even better. Ideally I would have a circular desk, but I haven't been able to find an affordable one anywhere.
Focused area lighting for tasks, using such products as this over-monitor light and this clamp light. If you like to have the general room lit, indirect lighting is less harsh on the eyes, and reduces glare.
Have a fridge or mini-fridge nearby enough that you can hear what's going on if you're on a call.
If you're like me, and like to have a cold beverage at all times, this product makes the best ice cubes you'll ever see. Good, solid, 2" ice cubes will last for hours.
Consider a wall AC unit. If you can't install one, at minimum, you should have a fan that you can aim at your face when you need it.
A good, mechanical keyboard, with a mute button and a pause button. Just watch out for the sleep button!
Noted! Thanks, do you have any suggestions about the monitor light?
What do you think about this one? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CXL3YQ8/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_dl_H48048JM6AH8JKAFY2GA?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Baseus Monitor Light Bar, Monitor... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CXL3YQ8
Check this one out too. Damn near identical but cheaper. Same color temp and brightness buttons. Had it for almost a year now. No issues.
I went on Amazon to search for one
i just got mine today, fits my Ultrawide 34" perfectly
(Now can;t figure out what to do with the webcam... I see you are going to have the same problem :D)
Do you mean like those monitor lights, or a lamp?
If the first, I have 2 of these on my monitors. Work great.
Nothing against the BenQ brand, but I picked up 2 of these for the price of one of those and I like them a lot.
Some quick details on where I did MANY things on the cheap.
The planters on the shelves are concrete squares (about $6 ea.) with round pots inside (about $5 each) from Home Depot. I painted them using left over paint from the room.
The clock was dark wood (about $18 at Walmart). I removed the hardware and painted the wood using left over paint to lighten it up some.
The carpet, not my first choice, from a discount bin at Home Depot cut down to size with scissors (about $70)
The floor lamps about $40 at the time. Philips Wiz RGB lights in them ($8).
The drapes are about $18, on $9 shower curtain rings so that they slide easier across the rod.
2-$60 Ikea tables on 3-$20 tressels, and one set of Alex drawers (about $60).
"gaming chair" $150 (I wasn't paying $400 for a chair). Came with lumbar support, I added neck support (not seen) for about $13. Very comfy.
The desk lights are these for $40 (not the $80 ones) : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CXL3YQ8/
The futon was where I knew I would have to spend since I wanted this exact one in this exact color. $500. The next week this size and color was listed at $1400. It has since gone back to its normal price of about $650. The most I've ever spent on a futon, but I thought it was worth it to have a decent background for my video calls, and somewhere to take a break or a nap.
With the Computers and other electronics I saved where I could, but it was all put together over time. My PC is 4 years old, still running great. I’ve done some RAM, fan, and storage upgrades over the years. I added the Mac Mini recently when it went on sale for $50 less.
This is what it looked like before COVID lockdown and restrictions. No futon, brown carpet, mismatched tables, using an old bucket as a trash can. And that was fine for me until I was spending every day, all day in here.https://imgur.com/a/67xCTNt
I'm currently using 2-LG monitors that have 1-Display & 2-HDMI inputs. I have my PC plugged into Display Port, and M1 Mac Mini plugged into the HDMI ports. LG settings toggle is easy as pie. When I need to switch between computers I just change the input of the monitor.
I use a Razer "gaming" keyboard and a Logitech trackball. I use Synergy to share them across OS's ( I also run Ubuntu on the PC and it works across all 3).
You can set up whatever shortcuts you want on just the keyboard, but I also have a Streamdeck and set one of the profiles up as shortcuts for my most used programs.
I use Phillips Wiz RGB lights on floor lamps around the room. On my desktop I have these:
I do both phone calls, and video conference calls. I've invested a little money to up my game for video calls, Mirrorless camera, decent lens, mic, lighting, and background furnishings. I also keep one of these around as a back-up. https://www.amazon.com/Jabra-2400-Mono-Wired-Headset/dp/B01090PEZQ
Wireless peripherals are too unreliable for video calls. For best quality, everything should be plugged in including your computer.
For phone calls I just use a decent Bluetooth earpiece. Works fine.
Other advice? Make your space comfortable. Your home office and equipment that you use for work are the most important of everything you own. It needs to be reliable, productive, efficient, and you need to love working with it. These are the tools that you use to make money...the money that finances EVERYTHING else. Set yourself up with nice tools that you love working with.
I've been looking for a way to read while at my keyboard for a while now. Tried many things that were either not bright enough, or too intrusive. Been looking at monitor lights for months and the prices were around $80-$130 and up. Found these Baseus brand on Amazon for $40. They work!
no worries, found one on amazon https://www.amazon.com/Baseus-Computer-Adjustable-Brightness-Temperature/dp/B08CXL3YQ8/
It’s a custom keyboard I built, details here. and yes that’s a lamp, link.
If you are interested, I can recommend it to you.

en | N/A | N/A | 6 Common Mistakes When Seeking a CLM Vendor
by Mark Langsbury
Making new purchases is always hard to do, especially when they can be costly and long term. This is very prominent in businesses and organizations seeking to adopt new technology, software or any type of strategic purchase to benefit the company.
Legal technology has been a popular and upcoming trend that companies are beginning to see a use for, toxample is contract management software systems. When purchasing new products, it’s always important to do your research, and essentially find the best solution for you that gives you what you’re looking for and for maximum cost efficiency. To help you decide the best contract management system for you while doing your research, here are common mistakes people make when seeking a CLM vendor. A CLM system is customized specifically to an organization’s needs and key product initiatives.
1. DON’T CHOOSE A CLM VENDOR THAT CAN’T SUPPLY A FULL END-TO-END SOLUTION.
2. DON’T CHOOSE A CLM VENDOR WITHOUT A CONTRACT AGNOSTIC SYSTEM.
A full end-to-end CLM solution should be able to manage all contract types, both the buy-side and the sale-side of the organization, and both first- and third-party paper (or contracts).
3. DO NOT SELF-SELECT.
4. DO NOT THINK SOLELY ABOUT THE SOFTWARE, BUT ALSO THINK ABOUT WHAT SUPPORT YOU WILL RECEIVE TO IMPLEMENT EFFECTIVELY.
A full end-to-end CLM solution should.
When purchasing new technology, it’s always nice to put it to use right away and get started. But a big issue that comes with advanced technology is the customer not given enough help and support to implement the system or use it properly. Make sure when seeking a vendor that they aid in the implementation process. Not only at the beginning, but throughout your subscription term so your company always has support.
5. DO NOT SOLELY SOLVE FOR “RIGHT NOW.”
Purchasing a new system to solve for present issues only results in having to switch systems down the road as your organization needs change. Or, putting several solutions together – each with their own integration, adoption, support, and maintenance issues. In short, it’s a lot to manage. And will save you from problems that would have been avoidable had you been forward-thinking from the start.
6. DON’T CHOOSE A CLM VENDOR BASED SOLELY ON COST.
That’s easy to say. However, CLM systems that are very large and advanced technology systems aim to solve the majority of organizations’ issues.
A way to do this on investment. Full end to end solutions allow the benefit to stretch far wider than just the legal team alone and can have tremendous gains for departments such as Procurement, Sales, and HR. On top of that, the wider organization is able to make faster and more efficient decisions. Such a wide-reaching ROI means that the cost of the solution versus time on return can make the cost of procurement look very different.
Making sure you have the right system for your organization is not an easy or quick exercise. Check out our Contract Management Primer for the 101 on contract management. Don’t miss the checklist at the end to help you better understand your contract management needs.

Quality Contract Management: What to Look For
Only a few vendors will succeed at truly creating a quality contract management system. Here's what to look for in your search. |
en | N/A | N/A | "Partnering with industry and academia is key to delivering resilient capabilities to the fleet faster and by levehip intermediaries we will improve outcomes for the Navy and the U.S. economy," according to NSWCDD Technical Director John Fiore. "The digital proving grounds will be the foundation of the digital ecosystem and will create opportunities for non-defense industry partners to leverage advanced prototyping and testing capabilities to support their advanced technology portfolios."
"We are excited to see Dahlgren Division's uptick in engagement across the regional ecosystem and the benefits that come with it," saidPresident Curry Robertsincreased economic opportunities this partnership affords our region."
NSWCDD Deputy Technical Director Darren Barnes thanked the intermediaries for attending and detailed the importance the division places on proactive engagement with its collaborators.

"The digital proving grounds we are developing here is just one of the tools we can leverage with our partners."
Dahlgren's Chief Technology Officer Jennifer Clift agrees, "In addition to finding opportunities for collaboration with non-defense industry, aligning with our partnership intermediaries helps us find innovative industry and academia partners to develop capabilities for the warfighter at a relevant pace using the digital proving grounds."

The investments in medical infrastructure and workforce–less than $30 billion for 32 million newly insured, less than $1000 for newly insured–seem an order of magnitude low.
Whate–but the extra health-care workforce needed isn’t there, and the lines start to get longer?
A number of his commenters provide some interesting, and sometimes good, answers. One commenter, John B, noted that the last line in the quote above doesn’t quite make sense: if coverage increases and the extra health-care workforce isn’t there, how exactly does quality increase.
Please don’t compare me to him.
Breaking apart the medical school cartel that leaves the US with lowest number of doctors per-capita of any developed country in the world.
I’m not even convinced this is an obvious problem now, much less 3 years ago. I can see how ACA could drive up costs and how that could be a problem. I can see how ACA could reduce welfare by forcing people to make purchases they wouldn’t have otherwise made. But I am struggling to see how the ACA would prevent labor markets from functioning how they normally do, raising wages and drawing more workers into these fields. Neither David nor Brad have made it especially clear to me why this is what we should be worrying about.
The ACA doesn’t prevent this. The restriction on the number of slots in medical schools and nursing schools does. Brad does raise the possibility of immigration and I’m more hopeful about this than he appears to be.
I peeked at Mr. Delong’s blog. Is it supposed to merely be a quote aggregator of Krugman and Keynes, or is it something more?
Shouldn’t it cost just 10% more to treat 97% of the people than 88%, because 97/88 = 1.1?
The lack of supply of doctors is created by the way in which they are renumerated. The ACA uses Medicaid as the the primary vehicle for expanding healthcare coverage, no most! doctors won’t participate.
Right, and we’d ultimately be forcing people into a lower quality program. But that seems like a Medicaid reimbursement problem not a labor market problem.
And the ACA has “promised” to lower costs.
Furthermore, even if the health costs of that 10% were being covered by government programs prior to the Mass mandates, with “insurance” that group would likely consume more health care. Pre-Mass/Romney Care, there would have been some question as to their personal costs associated with health care. After the Mass/Romney Care, it is clear (for now) that the government will pick up the tab for those who cannot. With lower personal costs, I assume this group would consume more.
Rosen- no it is not 10% more- any businessman can tell you that the costs/benefits of customers is not equally weighted across all the customers- a small %age of customers bring most of the profit & a small %age create a disproportionate amount of the cost.
If the political system were ake actionAlong these lines it could recognize the residencies immigrant doctors have already completed in other countries known to have high-quality training. Or, since most residencies are funded by the VA and HHS, it could just fund a lot more of them. |

It is not recommended that turning the lenses over on the finger.
Practice makes perfect! Multiple practices can make you easier to tell the two sides!
It will discomfort your eyes , even cause eyes diseases if you put wrong side in!
So much for the third class on telling two sides of contact lenses.

We kick off with ominous music, that fades into one of those really creepy 1950s carol recordings, and a shot of a bookcase, all in black and white of course (don’t watch the version where colour has been applied, just embrace the fact but every film needs to have lots of pretty colours), and a mysterious hand takes a copy of A Christmas Carol from the shelf, which has the credits inside it. What better way is there to kick off this story? There isn’t one, so there. Hurst (the director) has a real talent for framing a shot, and he loves a crossfade or two or thirty-eight. Plus he occasionally whips out some really interesting nonsense gems, such as representing time travel by showing an hourglass slowly floating away down a tunnel that all too much resembles the interior of an intestinal tract that is undergoing a blizzard. Come on, this is great.
Honourable mention: Jingle All The Way (1996, Brian Levant)
There are two types of film which star Arnold Schwarzenegger: films about wooden action heroes work pun fixations, who shoot everything and everyone, and films where Arnold Schwarzenegger has been miscast. Sometimes the miscasting is purposeful for comic effect, and sometimes it’s actually funny! And this is one of them. The film is absolute nonsense, but it’s a got a really strong nonsense of fun.
Arnie plays a neglectful father trying to make it up to his son (back on well-trod track). He’s been too wrapped up in his work, which I assume is at a research centre dedicated to working out why a man called Howard Langston, who has clearly been written as an American, has such a strong Austrian accent. But he can make amends if he can get his son the present he wants, a Turbo-man action figure. Along the way he has to fend off the overly amorous next door neighbour (played by the tragically late and great Phil Hartman) and a postman (played by nobody’s favourite 90s comedian, Sinbad). Embrace it for the nonsense it is: the film where Arnold Schwarzenegger shouts “Put the cookie down NOW!”
This, ‘A Christmas Carol’ – regarded as arguably the second best Christmas story of all time (after that one about the baby who gets given some bitter perfume for his birthday. I mean what’s he gonna do with that, eh? Use it to help create a mood which is somber, yet fragrant? No, he’ll drink it and get the shits. I’m watching you, King Balthazar – if that’s even your real name). Yes, three of the top five are incarnations of A Christmas Carol. To be fair, it’s really good – so props to you, Mr Dickens. But if you want to improve on something, there’s a very simple way to do it – add Muppets.

en | N/A | N/A | Who doesn’t love a good magic show? Giving the gospel through sleight of hand is a staple of many fundamentalist children’s outreach programs. Even adults will stop and watch someone perform a gospel presentation via an entertaining act of subterfuge and trickery.
The gospel rope tricks are some of the more popular gimmicks because they are inexpensive, quickly taught and have little risk of a spectator catching on fire. That’s always a something to look for in a magic act. The real risk here is that the trick will go very badly and the whole point will be lost. “Look boys and girls the three ropes are all…uh…well…they should have been the same…you’re all doomed.”
There’s another potential danger to gospel magic acts — they do not translate well into some more superstitious cultures. Missionaries who are a little too good at illusions may meet with charges of witchcraft. In these locations it may be better to stick with handing out Chick Tracts and fake money or run the risk of finding oneself in some very sticky situations indeed.

I’ve never tried the rope tricks, but I’ll admit to using an object lesson for children’s church where you add different food coloring to a bowl of water. The colors turn the water a muddy brown representing sin. Then you add bleach (I think) which is supposed to turn the water clear again, signifying Jesus’ forgiveness. It didn’t clear up as well as the illustration said it would thus ruining my point.
I also did Resurrection Cookies with my kids where you tell the story of the crucifixion as you prepare each step, then put them in the stove and seal the stove with masking tape. In the morning, your pastry is supposed to have risen and be all puffy and empty like the empty tomb. Mine didn’t rise. I should never have attempted to illustrate Scriptural truth via cooking.
Those stories are funny! 😆
I am a professional magician that uses illusion to present the Gospel. (I left my IFB church when the pastor told me that he would only allow us to go to other IFB churches, give him a two week notice and give him veto power over our meetings.) We do an hour program, but only the last 15 minutes is message. I believe in earning the right to be heard. I don’t do many rope tricks,but I levitate my wife, stick swords through pastor’s necks etc…
You are right, it freaks out some fundies–especially levitation and card tricks. |
en | N/A | N/A | EDINBURGH, Scotland, May 14, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A ringleader of a pedophile ring unveiled in Scotland was a top advisor to the Scottish Executive on homosexual issues regarding children, reports the Daily Mail.
LifeSiteNews.com reported Monday that James Rennie, the 38-year-old chief executive of LGBT Youth Scotland, was found guilty this month of molesting for four years an infant - beginning when the infant was 3-months-old - whom friends left with Rennie to babysit.
Rennie, who resigned from his position at LGBT Youth following his arrest late last year, lobbied for homosexual issues in the Scottish parliament, and has visited with the Prime Minister of England as "the Executive’s most important and influential adviser on gay issues affecting children," according to the Daily Mail.
Among other issues, the group lobbied for adoption to homosexual couples under Rennie’s leadership.
Rennie and fellow homosexual activist Neil Strachan, who was found guilty of assaulting an 18-month-old boy he was babysitting on New Year’s Eve 2005, are facing maximum sentences of life in prison as the ringleaders of an extensive network of pedophiles.
The two men shared victims and images of the abuse with six other men found guilty in the bust. The group was found guilty last week of over 50 charges, iy. |
en | N/A | N/A | Remodelling your home allows you to increase the home's resale value and have a fresh look without having to buy a brand new home. However, if you are planning on turning it into a DIY project, there are some important things you need to keep in mind. Try to avoid these common home remodelling mistakes.
You have a budget to stick to, so it is easy to try and reduce costs whenever possible. There is nothing wrong with this, but you also need to remember that some costs are worth it. For example, when it comes to building materials, try to buy the best your budget can afford. Don't assume you can turn this into a low-cost remodelling project just because you found really cheap materials that look like more expensive ones. Also consider the lifespan and quality of these materials when considering the cost. If you pay less for low quality materials, they might need to be replaced sooner, which causes you to actually pay more in the long run.
Failing to Prepare For Waste Removal
One of the benefits of using a professional contractor for home remodelling is that they take care of the waste for you. If you are going to do a lot of the work on your own, then you need to plan ahead and figure out how to get the waste out of your home. A budget-friendly option is skip bin hire. Skip bins of various sizes can be parked in your driveway or in front of your house for the length of the remodelling, allowing you to throw away waste as it is accumulated. The skip bin company will deliver it, then pick it up when you are done with it.
Not Enquiring About Permits
Make sure you are allowed to make the renovations you are planning on before you get started or buy materials. Depending on where your home is located, there might be rules about certain types of home remodelling or renovations, such as whether or not you can add an addition, needing a permit before finishing your basement or having regulations about changing the plumbing or electrical system. Keep in mind also that depending on where a skip bin needs to be placed, you may need council permits. Not receiving the appropriate council permissions may mean large fines.
It is also important that you understand your own skills and hire a professional when necessary. While some remodelling projects are fairly easy to do, things like working with the electrical system should be left to a professional. |

en | N/A | N/A | Lumpy and bearish, his clean lines hidden under a jowly beard and 40 pounds of thick middle he put on for the role, George Clooney is an apt visual symbol for his latest film, Syriana, which is a compelling drama partially obscured by excess.
Written and directed by Stephen Gaghan, who also penned the script for Steven Soderbergh's drug-trade drama Traffic, Syriana draws on the multiple storylines and jittery camera style of the previous film, but focuses on a new addiction, the ravenous global market for oil.
Syriana's cast does a fine job of humanizing Gaghan's complex material. Alexander Siddig plays the reform-minded Prince Nasir, chafing against U.S. pressure to sell his country's oil at cut-rate prices; Jeffrey Wright portrays a tightly wound lawyer brokering a merger between two oil companies eager to break ground in Kazakhstan; Matt Damon's financial analyst capitalizes on a family tragedy to become an adviser to Nasir; and Mazhar Munir's young Wasim finds relief from discrimination and poverty in the serene halls of a radical madrassa in Nasir's country. Each is an uncertain hero figure, but none more so than Clooney, whose CIA operative Bob Barnes shambles through the film, learning too late what his body already knows -- that his ideals have long been lost, that the country he thought he was serving turned against him years ago.
No. That is Syriana's greatest strength, and will likely become its most-criticized trait. Gaghan wants to force his audience to live through a dramatized state of contemporary being -- one in which there is no omniscient eye/I to explain what is happening in our world, where we are lied to through overt and covert means. The film offers a tantalizing hint at hidden depths. Loosely based on Robert Baer's tellingly titled CIA memoir, See No Evil, it speeds through terrorism and war, torture and missing missiles, and offers up quiet Americans and loud Texans. But the film doesn't cohere to an overarching conspiracy theory or peel back the curtain on Oz. Nor does it offer a real hero; each of the characters has unclear motives and mingles idealism and greed. What's Wright's lawyer really up to? Does Damon's character truly feel the spark of idealism, or is he just cashing in? As for Clooney's character, he's truly a hero for our times: Barnes is an assassin.
Such stark clues are truly the exception, however, the occasional lifeline thrown in as we're about to drown in the conspiracies, the florid excesses, those forty extra pounds. With his unnervingly smart if uneven film, Gaghan obscures to make us look harder, but offers up only glimpses of insight -- an experience that mirrors only too closely our relationship to our political realities today. |
en | N/A | N/A | [1] – Supreme Court of Canada, 2004
The unanimous decision in the Taku case provided much needed clarification orespect of government decisions, which may impact asserted Aboriginal rights.
Applying Haida Nation, the Court ruled that the Crown owed a duty to consult meaningfullyregarding the decision to re-open the Tulsequah Chief Mine, and to permit Redfern Resources Ltd. (the mine operator) to build a 160 kilometre access road through a portion of their traditional territory. However, the Supreme Court also found that the duty of consultation was met by TRTFN’s extensive involvement in the three and a half year review process conducted under B.C.’s Environmental Assessment Act.
There have been many more cases in the provincial courts across Canada and in the Supreme Court of Canada considering Aboriginal rights and title. This review is of the key Supreme Court rulings on Aboriginal rights and title, going back to Calder. These cases were chosen to illustrate the legal foundation built by the Court outlining the Crown’s duty of consultation, accommodation and negotiation. There is still much discussion and direction to be provided by the court on Aboriginal rights and title. The underlying key message of the Supreme Court in all of these cases has been that these issues are best negotiated rather than litigated.
It may appear that we have a bias towards legal decisions from the West Coast, but that is not the case. Unlike the rest of Canada, where treaties had been entered into between First Nations and Canada, B.C. was relatively untouched. There are a few exceptions in the far north east section of the province and southern Vancouver Island’s Douglas Treaties. It is this significant difference that led First Nations in B.C., and both the federal and provincial governments, to seek clarification from the Supreme Court of Canada as to the parties’ respective rights, title, and obligations. These types of rights, titles, and obligations were generally laid out in the established treaties. Any court action brought by a First Nation under a Treaty would be specific to that Treaty, unlike in B.C., where the disputes, upon reaching the Supreme Court of Canada had country-wide application.
Instead of a bias towards B.C. case law, we have included only those B.C. cases that have significance towards all Aboriginal Peoples. With the legal principles having been established through case law with its origins in B.C., other Aboriginal Peoples began to apply these principles to their historic treaties.

en | N/A | N/A | that orbit of the particle has corner at partonic 2-surface. Corner breaks conformal invariance since one cannot say that curve is light-like at the edge. At the corner neutrino transforms from right-handed to left handed one.
In complete analogy with Ψbar;γtAtΨ vertex for the point-like particle with spin in external field, the amplitude describing nuR-νL transition involves matrix elements of form νbarRΓt(CP2)ZtνL at the vertex of the CP2 part of the modified gamma matrix and classical Z0 field.
The following provides as more detailed view.
Let us denote by ΓtCP2(in/out) the CP2 part of the modified gamma matrix at string at at partonic 2-surface and by Z0t the value of Z0 gauge potential along boundary of string world sheet. The direction of string line in imbedding space changes at the partonic 2-surface. The question is what happens to the modified Dirac action at the vertex.
where the modified Dirac operator is D(in/out)=Γt(in/out)Dt, is assumed. νR corresponds to "in" and νR to "out". It implies that lines corresponds to massless M4 Dirac propagator and one obtains something resembling ordinary perturbation theory.
In the vertex D(in/out) could act in Ψ(out/in) and the natural idea is that νR-νL mixing is due to this so that it would be described the classical weak current couplings νbarR ΓtCP2(out)Z0t(in)νL and νbarR ΓtCP2(out)Z0t(in)νL.
To get some idea about orders of magnitude assume that the CP2 projection of string boundary is geodesic circle thus describable as Φ= ω t, where Φ is angle coordinate for the circle and t is Minkowski time coordinate. The contribution of CP2 to the induced metric gtt is Δ gtt =-R2ω2.
In the first approximation string end is a light-like curve in Minkowski space meaning that CP2 contribution to the induced metric vanishes. Neutrino mixing vanishes at this limit.

IOne generally accepted correction to the harmonic oscillator model is inspired by the assumption that heavier nuclei can be described as a kind of blob of condensed matter obeying equation of state allowing to introduce notions like acoustic waves and surface waves. The nucleon at the unfilled shell would reside at the surface of this blob. The blob has vibrational excitations characterized by multipolarity (spherical harmonic and the radial part of the oscillation amplitude. These excitations give rise to analogs of surface waves in water. Valence nucleons interact with the oscillations and affect the energy levels of the valence nucleons. The predictions of this model are calculable.
In TGD framework ordinary model of nucleus is replaced with what I call nuclear string model. The basic ideas of the nuclear string model are following.
Nuclei consist of string like objects: protons and neutrons connected by color magnetic flux tubes form string like objects, perhaps separately. The color magnetic flux tubes would would be meson-like objects and could even carry net color. They are either neutral (quark and antiquark at the ends of flux tube have opposite charges) or carry em charge.
This predicts a large number of exotic states. The exotic states cannot be distinguished chemically from the isotopes of the nucleus. The energy scale of the excitations could be in keV range: in this case their existence could explain the annual variation of nuclear decay rates which seems to be caused by X rays from Sun. Second possibility is that the energy scale is in MeV range for nuclear energies.
This would be new nuclear physics and perhaps relevant also to the cold fusion. The energy scale would derive from the string tension of the color magnetic flux tube. The lengths of the color magnetic flux tubes corresponding to keV scale would be rather long and correspond color magnetic bodies of the nucleons. If this is the case then the color magnetic energy of the system would depend only weakly on the positions of the nucleons of string inside nuclear volume. This assumption to |
