The role of speculative trading in markets is often debated. The recent extremes in the real estate economic cycle has created an ideal setting to investigate the role of speculative trading in the marketplace. Specifically, we focus on speculative trading in REITs during the recent boom and bust in real estate. While we find a strong relationship between speculative trading in REITs and the economic cycle, we do not find evidence that speculative trading is related to future returns. Increased speculative trading is apparent in REITs during the boom years, but the level of speculative trading in REITs is unrelated to the negative returns in REITs exhibited after the bust.

Best FOV settings for Vanguard Season 3
Call of Duty: Vanguard comes with a Field of View slider for both consoles and PC. This setting allows you to see more of the world around you, but having it set wrong can throw your game off. Here are the best FOV settings for Vanguard Season 3.
A Field of View (FOV) slider is a powerful tool in FPS games, as it allows you to see much more of the world around you. Black Ops Cold War featured an FOV slider on all platforms, but it’s missing from the console versions of Warzone and Modern Warfare.
However, Vanguard also features an FOV slider across all platforms and has done since its launch. Here’s everything you need to know about Vanguard’s Field of View slider, including the best settings you can use.
- How to change Vanguard FOV
- Best Vanguard FOV for controller players
- Best Vanguard FOV for mouse & keyboard players
- Does FOV affect PC and console performance?
- What is Affected FOV in Vanguard?
- Will a console FOV slider come to Warzone Pacific?
How to change FOV in CoD: Vanguard
Vanguard comes with an FOV slider for both console and PC players, which can be found in the Settings menu of the game.
Here’s exactly how to change your Field of View in CoD: Vanguard:
- Launch Call of Duty: Vanguard
- Open up ‘Settings’
- Navigate to the ‘Graphics’ tab
- Tab across to ‘Gameplay’
- Scroll down to ‘Field of View’
- Adjust the slider
- Press Square or X to ‘Show More’ features (Affected or Independent)
We’ll explain exactly what Affected and Independent mean further on in the guide.
Best FOV settings for Vanguard controller players
A controller doesn’t feature the fine aim control of a mouse and keyboard, so anywhere between a 95-105 FOV is ideal.
Vanguard will default to an FOV of 80 (the same as Warzone), but players can crank it all the way up to 120. Having such a massive FOV has its pros and cons.
As you increase your FOV, objects and players will appear smaller and further away. As you’re aiming with only your thumb, you won’t get the same fine aim control that a mouse offers. Plus, trying to account for Aim Assist bubbles when hitting these small targets makes it even tougher.
So, once you’ve got the best controller settings locked in, between 95-105 is ideal, as you’ll still get that extra awareness, but player models won’t be so shrunk that they’re hard to hit and track at long range.
Best FOV settings for Vanguard mouse and keyboard players
A mouse offers much more fine aim control, so if you’re accurate enough, we recommend anywhere between 105-115.
If you’re confident with your aim and are sitting close to your monitor, then 120 FOV is certainly an option. However, you’ll find that the world will appear stretched out, so the trade-off isn’t always worth it in the confines of multiplayer maps.
Anywhere between 105-115 is ideal for a PC player, as you can still make micro-adjustments to hit the smaller targets, and will avoid the ‘fish-eye’ effect from a 120 FOV.
Does FOV affect console and PC performance?
Unfortunately, raising your FOV severely affects your console or PC’s performance.
If you’re playing on a last-gen console or have a rig below the recommended settings, having your FOV too high will tank your frame rate. If you’re having this issue, try lowering your FOV until you find a balance between frames and field of view.
But if you’re on the PS5 or Xbox Series consoles, or have a high-end PC, then you should be free to set your FOV to your own preference without worrying about performance.
What is Affected FOV in Vanguard?
Call of Duty: Vanguard allows players to set their FOV to either Independent or Affected. There’s no correct choice here, so we’re breaking down what each setting does to help you decide.
Having your FOV set to Independent means your Field of View will zoom in when you ADS. Vanguard defaults the FOV to 80, and Independent will keep that value for when you’re aiming.
Many players prefer this because it strikes a balance between a high FOV when moving around, and a lower FOV when shooting.
The only downsides are that some players can find it quite jarring zooming from a high to a

Poly aluminium chloride (PAC), the white or yellow powder, is an inorganic polymer coagulant.Compared with traditional inorganic coagulants, fengbai poly aluminum chloride flocculation precipitation speed is fast, the PH value applicable range is wide, water purification effect is obvious and non-corrosive to pipeline equipment.
High efficient Poly Aluminum Chloride PAC for water treatment purification. 2.Application: Poly Aluminium Chloride(PAC) can be used in the clarification of drinking water, polluted industrial wastewater and industrial sewege. 3.Usage: 1) The solid product dissolved in water according to 1:3 for the liquid, together with the 10- 30 times of
In Argentina, where PAC is not used at all as flocculants in potable water treatment, Contec has built two PAC plants and in 5 years almost all the drinking water is treated with PAC. The process. Poly Aluminium Chloride process has been fine tuned by Contec during these years.
1, Aluminium chlorohydrate is a group of salts having the general formula AlnCl(3n-m)(OH)m. It is used in deodorants and antiperspirants and as a flocculant in water purification. 2, Other names for pac are basic aluminium chloride, polybasic aluminium chloride, aluminium hydroxide, and aluminium oxychloride and aluminium chlorohydrate.
Buy Poly Aluminium Chloride(PAC) for Water Treatment If you are going to buy high-quality poly aluminium chloride powder, then company is the best choice for all the customers. we has been focusing on the research, production and sales of water treatment chemicals since 1999.
7. Polyaluminium chloride offers better solubility than aluminium sulfate. 8. The salinity in treated water has limited rise. It is good for ion exchange treatment and high purity water production. Application Polyaluminium chloride often serves as: 1. Water purification chemicals for both domestic water and industrial water 2.
Add water and stir, make the solid dissolved, one ton of PAC can handle 10,000 to 100,000 tons of source water. Packing: 25kg/woven bag with PE inner bag. 22Mt/20 GP container. Usage Instruction: Add water and stir, make the solid dissolved, one ton of PAC can handle 10,000 to 100,000 tons of source water. Storage Caution:
PAC products can be in the range of 5%-65% basicity. As a general rule, the higher the basicity, the higher the polymer content and thus cationic charge density and efficiency. Higher basicity products have a lower aluminium content but are more efficient in clarification of water (i.e. turbidity/suspended solids removal).
At the low end of the basicity scale is ACS, with 0% basicity (which means it is not a PAC). The lowest basicity commercial PAC's are about 10%; most PAC's are in the medium to high basicity range (50-70%). At the top of the scale is aluminum chlorhydrate (ACH): at 83%, it is the highest stable basicity PAC available.
Zero hydroxide is simply aluminum chloride. Aluminum hydroxide (three hydroxides and zero chlorides) has a basicity of 100% with basicity defined as: The basicity of a given PACl product is an averaged parameter with the actual aluminum speciation being a complex mixture that can vary from monomeric aluminum (Al+3) to a range of partially
Comparing to inorganic flocculants, PAC is suitable for water of broad temperature, and is functional in low temperature water. It reduces less basicity less, so less or no basifier needed. There is fewer salts in water treated with PAC, this is good for high purity water purifying and ion-exchange treatment
HIGH EFFICIENT POLY ALUMINUM CHLORIDE (PAC FOR WATER TREATMENT) Advantage and Character : High efficient Poly Aluminum Chloride PAC for water treatment purification manufactory of PAC,low price ISO passed 1.Product Name: High efficient Poly Aluminum Chloride PAC for water treatment purification 2.Application: Poly Aluminium Chloride(PAC) can be used in the clarification of drinking water

Many health-food producers are enamored of soy and its isoflavones, estrogen-mimicking chemicals that account for many of the legume’s purported health benefits. But new research indicates that all those plant hormones might be damaging women’s cardiovascular health.
As Science News reports, some docs recommend isoflavone supplements as an alternative to hormone-replacement therapy for postmenopausal women. But researchers discovered that the women in this age group who had the highest blood concentrations of genistein (one of soy’s main isoflavones) also had reduced blood flow, a symptom of heart disease.
Of course, while this 900-person, decade-long study is definitely something to take seriously, it doesn’t determine whether soy actually causes vascular issues—it could well be that the study volunteers who already had symptoms of heart trouble were more likely to turn to “healthy” foods like soy. Further studies may suss out the connection, but it does seem like there’s a growing number of reasons for women to avoid the bean. And it’s not just a matter of cutting out the tofu and tamari—most processed food contains soy in some form.
There’s less evidence that soy is bad for men, but at least we pretty much know for sure that it doesn’t turn boys gay.

The Best of Both Worlds

There is nothing I like more than getting outside to paint on location. However, we live in Britain and I don't like being cold, and am not too impressed with getting wet, I take any opportunity to rush to the nearest café or pub for warmth and, of course, tea and cake. I have learned to make the most of being outside for some of the time; making colour notes and sketches, taking photographs and even starting a painting in situ. Later I continue with the pure joy and comfort of painting in my studio. I have spent years battling with the elements feeling that I really must paint en plein air to develop as an artist. But I have realised that it is still possible to paint with a sense of the great outdoors, by gathering information from a scene that has captured your attention and imagination, without having to struggle with weather of all types, insects, and wellmeaning people asking “are you painting?” and carrying masses of equipment that you think you just might need. If you haven’t yet discovered that the best of both worlds works for you, why not begin your own painting on location gaining a sense of the actual place. Then with the luxury of time and your imagination and the comfort of your home/studio, combine reality with your imagination. You will, of course, have all of your favourite equipment to hand – what could be better?
On Location at Cadgwith
Whilst tutoring on a recent painting holiday in Cornwall I made the colour sketch (Fig 1) on location at Cadgwith.
The sun was warm and bright but the wind was blowing quite enthusiastically so I just made a colour sketch and took a few photos. Back in my studio I used all the information I had collated and enthusiastically painted a larger piece (Fig 2),
with a sense of realism but also having the time to consider how and where I wanted to add my impression to the scene (fig 3).
I used a small amount of salt to create texture in the foreground coupled with controlled spattering. Living near Dartmoor offers me endless opportunities to gather inspiration, but it is often very cold and far too windy to keep my easel upright (it’s also terrible for my hair!). I am not put off however, and relentlessly attempt to start a painting even if I am hanging onto the board whilst applying large washes in an attempt to capture the mood and atmosphere. I frequently use one colour/monotone for speed to interpret what I see in terms of composition, tonal values, and a general feel for the scene that has captured my imagination. I also take many photographs, (the beauty of digital cameras), and make a few notes on the side of my paper if I need to remember a particular aspect that I want to add in the final painting. All of these help me to either complete the painting in the studio or use the material to inspire a fresh painting.
Dartmoor, near Hound Tor
This is the beginning of a painting I started on Dartmoor (Fig 4).
We had visited Hound Tor but the wind was vigorous to say the least so a walk was enjoyed but no painting. However, as I began to drive away I spotted a group of trees with fabulous limbs reaching gracefully above a rugged granite dry-stone wall, and the colours and texture caught my imagination immediately. Even though it was extremely cold I found a spot that was quite sheltered from the wind and I was able to get the basics of the scene onto paper using a graphite pencil and paint. I took many photos to ensure I had all the information I needed to complete the work (Figs 5 and 6).
On returning home I was able to evaluate and ponder how I was going to proceed. It is easy to see that I have had time to consider where to use tone and texture. I wanted to keep the rugged moorland feel of the scene but also put my slant on it. I so love using strong colour and texture - I am constantly surprised by the depth of colour you can achieve with watercolour as well as the interesting marks you can create using salt and cling film. I used cling film to create textural marks in the wall and bank – something I would have struggled with on location as it would have blown off. I sprinkled a small amount of salt into the foreground and in a controlled manner dribbled on loose paint to help suggest the interesting surface of the foreground. My final touches were a few restrained spatters of Indian Yellow and Scarlet Lake. I

1972 · Canada
Mark Gabriel is a Fine Artist artist from Toronto now residing in Todos Santos, Baja Sur Mexico. At the threshold of the desert and the sea, Gabriel has tapped into the magic of Baja Sur bringing a new raw power to his art. From Marine Salvage Rights, his series of paintings on scavenged pieces of driftwood to the larger panels, his creations are dreamscapes of scraped together memories. Ghosts of the desert and the mysterious movements of celestial bodies inspire flying whales, Ranchero musicians and the new series of tropical jet set socialites. These characters have their own stories to tell - they occupy familiar yet exotic topography - and they will reveal their secrets if you lean in close.
Mark paints mostly with knife. As he scrape’s and slashes the paint - one can see how essential that energy is to his work. Acrylic is also good because it’s fast. The paint goes on thick and wild, then dabs of precision. And if paint isn’t sufficient to the story, Gabriel employs ink, or mono-print, chalk and charcoal and oil stick. Some of the work requires collage and mixing of all of the above.

Fluorescence Sensor Probe for Glucose Sensing
Small Business Information
BIOTEX, INC., 8018 EL RIO ST, HOUSTON, TX, 77054
AbstractDESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease, which currently afflicts some 16 million in the US and 100 million people worldwide. In the US, diabetes and its associated complications are the seventh leading cause of death. Effective management of diabetes requires regular measurement of blood sugar, and improvements in glucose sensing technology will enable superior care and regulation of diabetic blood sugar. The focus of this research project is to develop and characterize a minimally invasive near-infrared fluorescence affinity sensor designed for transcutaneous glucose monitoring in interstitial fluid in subdermal skin tissue. The concept of the proposed implant device is one of the most promising technologies currently pursued in glucose sensor research. Significant long-term performance tests have been previously conducted by one of the principle investigators demonstrating that the glucose-sensitive protein Concanavalin A, the primary component of the sensor, has the capability to stay functional at body temperature for over one year. These stability test data are pivotal for ensuring reliable and accurate performance of the fluorescence affinity sensor over many months. We plan to develop, build, and test a small subcutaneously implantable sensor that will allow rapid and painless glucose sensing based on fluorescence measurements through the skin. The sensor will be specifically designed to be compatible with skin optics and will be amenable to inexpensive instrumentation. In this work, we will test the sensor in vitro and preliminarily in vivo in a rat model. The anticipated results of this study will be a miniaturized, rugged, biocompatible prototype of the affinity sensor for glucose monitoring that remains functional for at least 4 weeks in the hairless rat model with a low re-calibration frequency of approximately once a week.
* information listed above is at the time of submission.

Barclays becomes the Official Banking Partner of The Championships, Wimbledon from 2023
- New multi-year deal agreed for Barclays to become the Official Banking Partner of Wimbledon
- The deal includes the biggest ever donation made by an official partner to the Wimbledon Foundation, the official charity of The All England Lawn Tennis Club and The Championships
- Adding to Barclays’ investment within community to create opportunities through sport
- Top 20 player and Grand Slam semi-finalist Frances Tiafoe announced as Barclays’ tennis ambassador
Barclays and The All England Lawn Tennis Club today announced a new multi-year deal for the bank to become the Official Banking Partner of The Championships, Wimbledon from 2023. Alongside its partnership with the world-renowned tennis event, Barclays will donate an annual contribution to the Wimbledon Foundation, the official charity of the Club and The Championships, which represents the biggest ever donation made by an official partner.
This impactful partnership unites two iconic British institutions. The first Barclays bank opened 330 years ago and, as the world’s oldest tennis tournament, Wimbledon was first staged in 1877. The beginnings of this banking partnership date back to the 1960s, when Barclays’ first sub-branch in the area was built directly below the stands of Wimbledon’s Centre Court, a unique venue which opened its doors only for the fortnight of The Championships. A new chapter of the partnership now begins, with Barclays and Wimbledon joining forces to celebrate the very best of tennis, while continuing to create and champion opportunities for all.
Helping to launch the partnership, Barclays have enlisted a tennis player who’s no stranger to the Wimbledon courts, Frances Tiafoe.
Tom Corbett, Group Head of Sponsorship and Media at Barclays, says ‘We’re incredibly honoured and excited to be working in partnership with one the world’s most prestigious sporting events and to announce that we’ve signed Frances Tiafoe as our tennis ambassador. Our joint commitment to create legacy, through Barclays’ community programmes and the Wimbledon Foundation, means through this partnership we can deliver lasting impact and continue to create opportunities through Sport.’
Frances Tiafoe says, “I’m thrilled to be working with Barclays to help change the lives of young people who typically wouldn’t have the opportunity to experience the game of tennis. Growing up, playing at Wimbledon was my dream, so to be an Ambassador for Barclays, the new banking partner for Wimbledon, is very special.”
Sally Bolton OBE, Chief Executive of The All England Lawn Tennis Club, says ‘We are delighted to welcome Barclays as the Official Banking Partner of The Championships. Barclays’ commitment to creating access to sport for all is something that we are passionate about and, thanks to their generous support of the Wimbledon Foundation, will be a central theme of our partnership.’
Barclays will work closely with the Wimbledon Foundation to pursue their shared commitment of creating opportunities for more people to grow and thrive in their communities, and often using sport to achieve this. Since 2013, the Wimbledon Foundation has established a strong record of using the collective strength of Wimbledon to make a positive difference to people’s lives year-round at a local, national, and international level.
Paige Murphy, Head of the Wimbledon Foundation, says ‘We are very thankful for Barclays’ commitment to support the Wimbledon Foundation in such a significant way. With our shared ambition of championing and creating opportunities for all in mind, the years ahead will be exciting for us as we work together on a programme that has the potential to make a positive and inspiring impact on the lives of so many.’
With a deep-rooted commitment to foster change, Barclays have been a dedicated force in creating better access to opportunities for all through sport. Beyond its long-term sponsorship of the Premier League, Barclays was a pioneer in its support in women’s and girls’ football with its record investments since 2019 into The Barclays Women’s Super League and the FA Girls’ Football School Partnership with an ambition to give girls equal access to football in schools by 2024.
This year, Barclays has doubled down on its commitment, becoming the first title sponsor of the FA Women’s Championship and rolling out the Barclays Community Football Fund which offers grants and resources to grassroots football groups.

As what was reported as a possibility on June 29th by Pierre LeBrun, Andre Tourigny and the Arizona Coyotes were having intensified talks concerning his future employment with the team.
— Pierre LeBrun (@PierreVLeBrun) June 29, 2021
Andrew Tourigny Named New Head Coach of Arizona Coyotes
Tourigny was named the new head coach of the Arizona Coyotes. He succeeds former head coach Rick Tocchet to be the bench coach of the team. Tourigny formerly was an assistant coach with Team Canada in the recent World Championship won by Canada. He also was an assistant head coach for two seasons in 2013-14, and 2014-15 with the Colorado Avalanche followed by another one-year stint with the Ottawa Senators. He has been the head coach/vice president of hockey operations over the last four years for the OHL’s Ottawa 67’s. Needless to say, his expertise with the mostly young roster in Arizona will serve him well.
The Coyotes have called a news conference for 11 AM Thursday. Sources tell me they will name André Tourigny as their next head coach. I first noted Tourigny’s candidacy on May 10. There have been lots of talks between the team & the Ottawa 67’s/Hockey Canada coach since then. https://t.co/dePCi5p9Vl
— Craig Morgan (@CraigSMorgan) July 1, 2021
Tourigny was named the OHL coach of the year three times and took his Ottawa 67’s team to a combined record of 100-23-7 over the last two seasons. He has the skills the Coyotes were searching for when they began looking for Tocchet’s replacement. He met the guidelines that the Coyotes management was seeking. He’s only 47 years old and this will be his first head coaching job in the NHL.
After a popular choice like Mike Van Ryn was not selected, it was thought that the Dallas Stars assistant Todd Nelson had the inside track to land the job. Apparently the new general manager Bill Armstrong liked what he heard in interviews with Tourigny.
What This Means Going Forward for the Arizona Coyotes
With a new head coach, this team has its work cut out for it to become a competitive team. Tourigny will have some good young and talented players to put out on the ice. He may also have some new players from trades or free agent signings. This is a new beginning for the Desert Dogs, let’s see how they do with Tourigny in charge.

A Hiking we shall go
It’s Golden Week here in Japan. Basically, that means there are abunch of public holidays all around the same date, so pretty much everyone in Japan picks up and travels.
I am really trying to save money, so have avoided travelling out of town for this Golden Week, and have instead decided to expore a bunch of the hiking trails in my local area. Today we explored a trail behind Arima Onsen, a resort town near to where I live.
Due to it being a resort town, and Golden Week, it was really crowded in Arima Onsen itself (well, its really crowded about 80% of the time). The trails, however, weren’t too bad. There were a few tour groups in super fancy hiking outfits, and the odd family, but everyone was really friendly.
We arrived at the station and headed toward the hike. Unfortunately my memory of how to get there served me slightly wrong, meaning we were lucky to see all sorts of non-touristy parts of Arima Onsen on the way. Unfortunately in this case, non-touristy means more streets of houses, car parks and backs of hotels, as opposed to wonderful, tucked away experiences and places off the beaten path.
Eventually, after following our instinct around the town, we finally found the entrance to the trail (and the road we should have gone down to get there) directly and easily. The trail started behind a shrine up a mountain. We got to the base of the mountain, and saw the steps up to the shrine. It didn’t look too bad.
Where we thought the stairs ended. Sigh.
Except that, unfortunately, the landing where we thought the shrine was turned out to be wrong. Quite wrong. We were probably only about 1/3 of the way there.
So we trudged on up, feeling very, very sorry for ourselves. Thankfully the temple at the top, whilst small and understated, was really pretty and had a great view.
The start of the official hiking trail.
We started along the trail, full of optimism. This soon dissipated. The trail was much harder than we anticipated – steep, with a lot of dirt and giant tree roots. After scrambling up it for about 15 minutes (which felt much, much longer), we eventually came to another trail. This was a much wider and smoother trail – the kind found more commonly in Japan.
Celebrating the wide, easy trail 😀
View from the (almost) top.
We turned around, and somehow merged with a group of engineering students from Osaka who spoke excellent English on the way down. We reached the bottom, left our new friends, and decided to actually go to the onsen, being that the entire town revolves around it (super logical, desu!)
These guys were waiting at the bottom. I’m rather fond.
We ended up having a very short bath in the onsen, as it was just too hot. We did enjoy the massage chairs afterward though. We went to the gold onsen. There are minerals in the water that turn the water a rusty golden colour. It’s so thick that the water is completely opaque.
We stumbled out of the onsen hungry and found ourselves in 7-11, where we bought amazing, soft, gooey chocolate-man buns.
Ridiculously good. Seriously.
And then, it was time to head home. But thankfully it’s only the beginning of Golden Week – there are many more adventures to come 🙂

Teach Your Dog a Reliable Recall
We have all been there haven’t we? That horrible experience of a complete and utter recall disaster. Yes, that moment when you are out and about with your dog who is enjoying themselves exploring the countryside or the local park. Suddenly it starts absolutely pouring it down with rain and sensibly you want to put your dog back on their lead and head home to dry off. All very logical and simple surely? Um well it would be if your dog came when called instead of bounding off in the opposite direction. Typical!
Perhaps you are walking your dog before work and you have an important meeting which you must not be late for. Your walk has been going so well, your dog is by your side, behaving perfectly. Time to head back so as not to be late. Suddenly your dog gets a whiff of the the most exciting smell ever in the history of scents known to dogkind. Will they come when called? You guessed it, no!
If neither of these scenarios sound familiar, trust us when we say, wow we are impressed and a little jealous too (getting drenched whilst your dog runs in the opposite direction isn’t fun, trust us)!
What is Reliable Recall?
Very simply, reliable recall is when you call your dog to come and they respond by coming, no matter what the situation. Whilst it is one of the most important aspects to train your dog in, it’s also most probably the most frustrating and can prove to be challenging to get a dog to do it reliably.
Teaching your dog to come to you when called in your garden or during a group obedience training is not the hard part and most dogs will achieve this beautiful in such settings.
Then you enter the real world with your dog and the perfect recall during a formal training session is ignored, forgotten, and you are left scratching your head as to whether your recall training was in fact just a dream.
No it wasn’t a dream, not at all. You are, however, in the real world now with your dog, you are no longer in the ‘classroom’. Life is exciting, your recall is falling on deaf ears, there are so many fun and exciting distractions in the real world.
The Importance of Recall
One of the first things the team at Benafim Dogs say to adopters is to not let their new furry family member off the lead too soon. We ask all adopters to wait until they are certain they have trained their dog to come when called. Until that moment we recommend either a long lead or an extendable one so that your dog still gets to enjoy more freedom on walks.
Reliable recall is so important for one main reason:
Safety – Reliable recall can prevent a number of dangerous and life-threatening situations. Being hit by a car, running away, getting lost, roaming, approaching or being approached by an aggressive dog, interacting with wildlife, getting into in dog fights, hurting someone, falling into the wrong hands to name a few.
Why Do Some Dogs Ignore Recall?
When you call your dog, you have to understand that your dog will be wanting to know what is in it for them? It may sound selfish from a human perspective but dogs don’t have an understanding or need of selfish, sharing and what’s right or wrong for example.
What your dog is doing when you call them is weighing up the situation, the reward versus what they are currently doing. If you are at home in your garden, the likelihood is what you have to offer: dinner, a walk, a cuddle perhaps, is going to be more rewarding than ‘not having much to do in the garden’. A successful recall takes place, you feel confident, happy and think you have got this supposedly challenging recall training sussed.
But the next day you take your dog to the park and let them off the lead confident they will come back when called. Your dog suddenly gets the scent of a rabbit or finds some friends to play with and when you call your dog you do not get the response you were hoping for – that they come bounding back to you immediately. Instead they glance at you briefly holding the lead and continue to ignore you.
At this moment your dog is faced with two choices:
- Go back to an unhappy looking you and to have their lead put on and taken home or,
- Continue to play with their friends or follow the scent of the rabbit they are so eager to find.
We know what we would choose if we were the dog in this situation. The second option of course! But your dog isn’t human. Absolutely no emotion, punishment, loyalty or any humanistic trait came into play when they decided to ignore you. It was purely based on what the highest reward was to them at that very moment.
It is important to not take your dog’s choice personally. They are not ignoring you out of spite or to be mean or because they

Cold with snow for some
Staying cold over the next few days with showers or longer spells of rain, sleet and snow for most.
Ice warnings have been issued for northern and western parts of the UK for Wednesday night. Warnings for snow and ice have been issued for many parts of the UK on Thursday and Friday.
Many have seen wintry showers today (Wednesday) with the snow impacting airports in northwest England and Ireland. A widespread frost is expected tonight.
A snow and ice warning has been issued for the southern half of the UK from Thursday afternoon and into Friday. Rain and snow will move into the UK from southwest, perhaps persisting across some southern areas on Friday. The timing of rain and snow clearing on Friday is currently uncertain.
Chief Meteorologist Steve Ramsdale said: “Areas could see rain and snow for periods of 6 to 9 hours, with 1–3 cms of snow gathering in places within the warning area and the potential for 5-10 cm, perhaps most likely in the South West and over Wales. Snow amounts will vary with many places seeing very little.”

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of whether the conferences and briefings given by the British Wind Energy Association to local authorities are compatible with the Nolan report recommendations that planners should be impartial and seen to be impartial. [HL5523]
We would expect local authorities in England to be guided by the advice issued by the Local Government Association in May 2009. The guidance from the LGA is intended to avoid bias or the perception of bias in decisions on planning applications while reflecting local authorities' roles as place shapers. The guidance therefore recognises councillors' ability to participate in discussions prior to the receipt of a planning application on behalf of their communities and engage in spatial planning policy formulation. Planning elsewhere in the UK is a matter for the devolved Administrations.

Back when the distinction between governments, armies and companies was less precise, the British-based East India Company sailed into Penang harbour and took over the 28-sq-km island as its first settlement on the Malay peninsula, a move intended to break Dutch Melaka’s monopoly of the spice trade.
What evolved on the formerly unpopulated ‘Betel Nut Island’ was a bustling port. Entrepreneurs of every imaginable ethnicity, most notably Chinese, flocked to this new land, creating wealth and cultural hybrids. Like many company settlements, Penang wilted after the collapse of the British Empire. Today it’s become the ‘Silicon Valley’ of Malaysia although this high-tech world is scarcely noticeable to the casual traveller. Beyond the capital Georgetown’s heat and decay are beach resorts, such as Batu Ferringhi, and the sleepy Malay fishing village of Teluk Bahang.

Indeed, stress versus sleep relationship can be a vicious cycle. The more stressed you are - the harder it is to sleep. Lack of sleep, in turn, intensifies the stress you feel because your sleep-deprived body generates more stress hormones.
Prescription drugs like anti-depressants and sleeping pills should be a last resort and best avoided if at all possible. They can be harmful and highly addictive when taken over time. Instead, we recommend the following natural techniques to reduce stress, encourage sleep and get your life back in balance.
Techniques to quickly reduce stress
1. Move the body
Exercise has been proven to lower anxiety and gear the body for sleep. Morning or afternoon is the best time to exercise. Just before bedtime, try movement that ends in quiet meditation, like a yoga stretch, to relax the body and mind.
2. Set the scene
Environmental factors such as light, sound and temperature all affect the body’s ability to unwind and rest. A dark, quiet and cool (but not cold) bedroom setting is best. Clean, fresh linen also helps. And taking a shower or bath just before bed can relax and moderate the body’s temperature, which brings about sleep more readily.
3. Avoid stimulants
Too much caffeine or alcohol can increase anxiety, raise the heart rate and inhibit sleep. It would also help to avoid screens at least an hour before bed. TVs, tablets, smartphones emit a short-wavelength. This artificial blue light keeps the brain awake and suppresses the release of the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin. Try listening to music or reading a book instead.
4. Relax the mind
Mindfulness meditation, yoga and breathing exercises offer easy and effective tools to reach a non-stressed, relaxed state. Calm can also be achieved by taking a walk. When you practice techniques for soothing the mind during the day, it’s easier to unwind and trigger the relaxation response at night.
5. Don’t forget your essentials
As well as aiding natural sleeping rhythms, certain essential plant oils can also effectively, and naturally, help towards reducing anxiety and stress. They integrate seamlessly with the body’s innate control systems and act organically the same way as the body’s own hormones to influence the areas of physiology that are linked to mood and sleep. We love Absolute Essentials in Organic Lavender True, Organic Dream Time and Organic Stress Less.

Founded in 1988 by Natural Health Practitioner, Dr Bo Hendgen D.O. N.D. A.M., Absolute Essential is a company built on sustainability principles to promote health and wellbeing for our global future.
A doctor of Osteopathy and Naturopathy with qualifications in Aromatic Medicine from France, Bo came to New Zealand 35 years ago with two young children (a 3 year old and a 3 month old), a backpack and $50 in her pocket. Early on, while setting up her holistic healthcare practice here, Bo struggled to find the level of quality, pure-state essential oils that she needed (and that she’d been used to dealing with in France) in order to operate her clinic professionally. So she decided to source her own – and Absolute Essential was born.

Feeling sad does not build bridges, nor will it win a war that needs fighting. Dedicating time to dwell on past hurts also rarely brings home a paycheck (unless you’re a therapist). In a consumer, growth-oriented society, sadness seems a luxury we can ill afford in our restless race for more goods, more happiness, more distraction. We grow quickly uncomfortable in the presence of others’ sorrow. Rightly or wrongly, we all learn to keep feelings of genuine sadness to ourselves.
Yet the truth is we are hardwired for a depth and complexity that can be found nowhere more clearly than in sadness. Ask the great comedians where they discovered the roots of their humor. Almost universally, their answer is in sorrow. It is the volume of our sadness that gives dimension to our sense of joy, peace, love, as well as the full palette of human emotion.
Honoring That Which Transcends
Sadness is unique in its capacity to draw the outside world to our side. Even if our friends and family haven’t the capacity to cue in when we are deeply grieved, the environment itself leans in. Unashamed by our social ranking, dogs will tend to approach us when we have dropped our guard. Wild animals grow curious as our manic productivity ceases and we bend our heads earthward. If the sky has been dark, it may be our very tears that signal the start of a summer squall. We look up from soul-drenched misery to find a dove murmuring at her perch, watching and harmonizing with our pain. Never too direct. The dove quickly averts her gaze and takes flight, the arc of her wings nodding her approval. We see a remarkable law of call and response at play here. Nature responds well to fully expressed sorrow.
Sadness, when fully expressed, connects us even beyond the animal realm. Our small travails reflect greater laments—to the injustices, the brutal losses, and the painful ephemeral facts that constrain all life. Watch a small child howl uncontrollably after she is denied a friend’s toy. No amount of explaining can remedy such injustice. Our scolding and attempts to redirect fall on deaf ears. As we detect the absence of ploy or force in her screams, our parental instincts grow respectfully mute. We give pause before the depth of her feeling. Pure anguish. We shudder at the timelessness of her state and take side with awe at the purity of her misery. Helpless, we wait for the deep emotion to subside on its own. In her sobbing, we hear the horrifying music of galaxies clashing and collapsing into nothingness, the despair of lonely asteroids, the careless weight of entropy triumphing over all creation. If the universe needs a heart and voice to expel its pain, she is its instrument.
Sometimes we just don’t get to play with other friends’ toys! But we do get to feel sad about it.
When you attend to the depths of your sorrow, you partake in a profound transmigration of feeling. The quantum spin of one electron is entangled—via observation—with the spin of other electrons regardless of locality. Similarly, our sadness entangles with the sadness of others we have never met.
Feel It Fully to Let It Pass
Among our fellow humans, the attempt to console is fraught with mishap. Have mercy for those wishing to respond well to the tears within you. Try as they might, their brains are too advanced for the archaic wisdom that sadness requires. Aid, when it arrives too soon, interrupts the needed revelation. Arriving too late, it loses all value. The chance for misattunements are legion, and too often we are obliged to console the consoler and thus lose the true message of our sadness.
Instead, when powerful sadness wells up from within, take a meandering walk. Trust nature’s way with you as you traverse the barriers between you and your deeper self. Here are some of the barriers and passageways you may find familiar in your hunt for real sadness.
- Anger: After misfortune and before your honest response, your imagination first compels you to repeat the details of the affront. Eons of self-preservation dictate that you can’t feel sad until you have first rehearsed the problem and invested in your own safety. Go ahead then. Blame the universe for your condition (if there’s no human perpetrator to pin it on). Compound your defeat with memories of any and all related past hurts. Recount the underlying patterns that hold you forever confined. And, of course, plan your perfect revenge. People call anger a secondary emotion, but what better avenue to divest from the rational mind and unleash your primal self?
- Indignation: Eventually, your vision widens. All on its own, attention lifts above anger’s narrow hold and exposes you to a shakier view.

We've all had a pet that feels just as important as any other member of the family.
But what do you do when the worst happens to that pet? I'm not talking about when the pet dies. I mean what happens if the pet gets kidnapped?
CBS reports on Mario Cifuentes, a man who is "heartbroken" after watching footage of his pet macaw, Baby, being kidnapped.
Cifuentes says, "In the beginning, we thought maybe a cat or dog got him".
After they checked their security cameras, they saw a burglar take the bird in some sort of bag.
Cifuentes commented on how "brutal" the kidnapping was and says, "We are hoping we can get him back safe and uninjured".
Listen to Bryan Suits recap this story and talk about his run-ins with macaws below!

Edmunds has offered up what may be promising news for Sirius XM investors. According to the automotive website December auto sales may set up to be among the best performing months of 2011. Historically December ranks at about the 8th best month of the year in terms of sales. However, the last two years have shown that December is quite capable of being one of the highlights. In 2009 December was the best month. Last year it was the second best month with sales of about 1,145,000.
The best month in 2011 has been March with auto sales topping 1,245,000. That sets the bar high, but even if auto sales approach this number, it will be welcomed news. With October bringing in just over 1 million, and November bringing in just below that number, Q4 of 2011 is presenting some challenges for Sirius XM in getting to their subscriber guidance of 1.6 million.
If the auto sector can deliver sales approaching 1.2 million in December it would certainly go a long way in allowing Sirius XM to meet their guidance in a much easier fashion. If sales come in at just over 1 million, the challenges I laid out on Seeking Alpha will be very real. Thus, the magic question is what will December of 2011 deliver?
While it is still to early to tell, we can look at the previous quarters to see how sales have stacked up this year and how that relates to Sirius XM. In Q1 the auto sector sold 3.06 million cars and Sirius XM reported subscriber gains of 373,000. In Q2 auto sales came in at 3.27 million with sub gains of 452,000. Q3 saw auto sales at 3.18 million with the subscriber number coming in at 333,000. With just one month to go Q4 auto sales are at 2.01 million. In order to meet the Q3 total auto sales would need to come in at 1,168,000. This would make December the second best month of the year. To meet the best auto quarter, and Sirius XM's best subscriber quarter (Q2), auto sales would need to come in at 1,257,000, which would be an impressive feat.
There were some readers (muscle) that felt that I was not taking production into consideration when I stated that Sirius XM meeting guidance would be a challenge. I did, and ALWAYS do, take production into consideration. I am the one that has tracked the auto sector more closely than most, and grasp that production only matters from certain companies. The companies where production matters are called "LEADING". Ford is Sirius XM biggest "LEADING" partner. Prior to today the company had outlined a production increase of only 4,000 units in Q4 as compared to Q3 (656,000 vs 660,000). The company did announce a production increase today. They have bumped it up from 660,000 to 674,000, an increase of just over 2%. That additional 14,000 cars will bring about 9,100 additional promotional subscribers (assuming a 65% penetration rate). This added production does not really help move the bar.
What can move the bar this quarter is SALES. This is where we need to look to GM, Honda as the two biggest point of sale partners. From October to November GM sales dropped 3.5% and Honda dropped about 15%. The December projections by Edmunds offer some promise, but the company will still need to be aggressive with retention, increase take rate, and minimize churn to beat guidance of 1.6 million subscribers.

Japan's biggest mobile carrier NTT DoCoMo hopes to make life easier for tourists with glasses that automatically translate foreign languages. (Courtesy: RTV/CBS)
Japan's biggest mobile carrier NTT DoCoMo hopes to make life easier for tourists with glasses that automatically translate foreign languages.
The company unveiled its prototype "Intelligent Glasses" at Japan's Ceatec consumer electronics expo this week, and says it hopes to have the device ready for foreigners travelling to Tokyo during the 2020 Summer Olympic Games.
The device can translate Japanese, English, Korean and Chinese, DoCoMo says.
"We'd already developed this Augmented Reality app for smartphones which translated text where you pointed your camera, but it felt really unnatural. So instead of walking around the street pointing your phone at signs and things we thought it would feel more natural to make glasses which could mimic the way we see things in real life," NTT DoCoMo engineer Shinji Kimura told Reuters.
"When foreigners come to Japan for international events like the Olympics, we feel it would be really useful if they could look at menus and things in Japanese and be able to automatically read them in their own language. So that's our goal, and we're trying to get development finished in time for that."
Users attach a headset and images from an tiny eye-level camera are sent to NTT DoCoMo's cloud server. Writing is analysed in realtime by the company's translation software and alternate language versions displayed for users in a small viewfinder.
Kimura says the company hopes to capitalise on a rising awareness of wearable technology like Google's "Google Glass", but Kimura admits DoCoMo still has challenges ahead to win over an emerging market.
"To popularise the glasses more widely, the quality of design is of course going to be important - and it's true they're a little bit big at the moment. But we're hoping to make them more stylish in the future," he said.

BOTTOM LINE: A solid story about relationships from a promising playwright.
Anyone who has ever spent significant time in a train station knows that there are hundreds of stories going on in any waiting room. Playwright Emily Comisar chose to mine this surprisingly untouched area in her play Track Twelve, currently playing at Teatro Circulo as part of this year’s Fringe Festival. This promising play brings together siblings heading to their mother’s wedding and business partners on their way to a meeting, when a snowstorm delays their train.
Set in Penn Station, the storyline of bohemian wedding photographer Jenny (played by Keelie A. Sheridan) and her older banker brother Simon (played by Leo Goodman) focuses on their relationship with their parents as they head to the family gathering. The parallel story is about consultants Lindsay (played by Sarah Sanders) and Mike (Charlie Gorrilla), business partners once engaged to be married. The storylines eventually collide while the four are waiting for their delayed train, as Jenny and Mike hit it off and Simon gives Lindsay some professional advice. Sheridan and Gorrilla share strong chemistry as the unexpected couple. The characters are surprisingly well drawn for a one-act play; we see different shades of all four characters as different aspects of their personal lives are revealed.
Though the ending of the play feels a little unfinished, the concept and the characters are all clever and unique. Moments of dialogue, specifically when the characters are arguing, can tend toward cliché or unrealistic, but overall the script serves the talented actors well. The 90-minute show speeds along, nicely directed by Josh Penzell.
Track Twelve is the sort of Fringe show I would recommend to festival or theatre newbies. It is an engaging play about regular people facing real life problems, told in an entertaining way. I look forward to following the career of playwright Comisar.
(Track Twelve plays at Teatro Circular, 64 East 4th Street, through August 23, 2013. Remaining performances are August 15th at 8:45PM, August 18th at 8:45PM, August 21st at 5PM, and August 23rd at 2PM. Tickets are $15 in advance, $18 at the door, and are available at fringenyc.org or by calling 866.468.7191.)

Today I am in Angrogna (in Torino province) to tell you something about the Waldesian temple which rises up in the middle of the town. As you can see, the name of the temple is traditionally “he one of the centre”, to distinguish from another Waldesian religious building located in the same town, and, because it’s a Protestant worship place, it’s not associated to the name of the hamlet, which is San Lorenzo!
It is said that this is the oldest temple in the Waldesian valleys and in the whole Italy, because the earliest historical statements talking about it tell us that it had been built in 1555 on the basis of a small chapel.
Its history is troubled: it was destroyed in 1561 and immediately rebuilt after the Cavour Agreement, devasted again in 1655 during the so-called Pasque piemontesi (literally “Piedmontese Easters”) and a third time in 1686. Only in 1708 it was reconstructed on the ruins of the older one. In the meanwhile, the rituals took place in a small cabin.
In Nineteenth century it was in an awful condition: the windows hadn’t glasses anymore and were closed by greaseproof paper, and the floor was deprived from tiles, and so on the ground – where wedding and baptisms took place – you could see the tracks and the footprints of the observants. Moreover, there wasn neither the ceil nor a heating system.
Thanks to a benefactor, in 1847 it became possible to proceed with a first restoration, and in 1880 a fence was erected to stop the livestock which used to graze in the temple’s garden.
How to get here:
from Provincial Road 161, between Torre Pellice and Luserna San Giovanni, at the roundabout take the road to Angrogna; follow the road and you’ll get to the main square of San Lorenzo, then turn to right.

What is an Orthopedic Surgeon?
Orthopedics deals with conditions of the musculoskeletal system and often focuses on the degeneration or injury of bones and bone joints. You may need to see an orthopedic surgeon if you have certain congenital disorders, trauma, infections and tumors including osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and sports injuries.
Short and Long Term Recovery From Knee Replacement
A Local Orthopedic Surgeons after a knee replacement, when you go home, you should use lots of ice or an ice therapy machine or whatever your surgeon recommends for cold therapy for the knee. That is very helpful with controlling the pain and controlling the swelling.
A Local Orthopedic Surgeons patients will have a nice simple dressing on top of the wound, where they have either staples or sutures under the skin with tapes. And that dressing can generally be left on for seven days after it’s applied. And it’s generally waterproof, and you can shower with it on.
A Local Orthopedic Surgeons before you assume that your dressing is waterproof, please make sure that you consult with the nurses in the hospital ward, to make sure that this is indeed the case. After seven days, the dressing can be removed and generally you can just leave it exposed.
A Local Orthopedic Surgeons if there are sutures or staples that need to be removed, they can be removed two weeks after surgery, by a physician, or sometimes by a physical therapist or a nurse.
It’s very important to do the exercises after surgery and to bend the knee despite the pain. Very important to avoid stiffness. You will have pain, and most surgeons tend to give lots of analgesics to make sure the patient is comfortable after surgery.
A Orthopedic surgeon a rule, we tend to give two types of painkiller: a stronger painkiller such as OxyContin or hydromorphone, which you should come off as quickly as you can, because of their addictive nature.
In addition, you may be given a week of painkillers, such as Tylenol NO. 3 or tramadol, which is a weaker narcotic, not as addictive, but nonetheless it is still a narcotic. And you can transition from the stronger narcotics to the weaker narcotics as you see fit.
A Local Orthopedic Surgeons A lot of times, you may need the painkillers only before physiotherapy or after physiotherapy. It’s important when taking the weaker painkillers such as Tylenol NO. 3 or Tramacet, to avoid taking Tylenol in addition.
A Local Orthopedic Surgeons in other words, if you’re taking Tylenol or acetaminophen, the total daily dose of anything that contains acetaminophen, such as Tylenol NO. 3 or regular Tylenol, or the regular Tramacet and the regular Tylenol, should not exceed eight tablets per day, because of the potential risk of acetaminophen to the liver.
A Local Orthopedic Surgeons with time, the narcotic requirements will become much less, and you can simply switch to extra strength Tylenol for the next few months after surgery. If you still need a week of analgesic or a week of narcotic once in awhile to help you sleep for the first six months after surgery, that’s okay, but is not always required in every patient.
A Local Orthopedic Surgeons you will likely also be given a prescription for blood thinners to reduce the risk of a blood clot, for up to 14 days after surgery, so use as directed. And if you have any further questions, or if you have any questions during your recovery, don’t be afraid to contact your surgeon.

The Real Housewives of Miami's Joanna Krupa exclusively tells In Touch that she’s pulled the plug on her five-and-a-half-year engagement to Miami club impresario Romain Zago.
“We got in a huge fight, and I just pretty much got fed up with it,” the Real Housewives of Miami star confides exclusively to the new issue of In Touch, on newsstands tomorrow.
A tearful Joanna tells In Touch, “He loves me to death, he wants to be with me, but there’s something that’s holding him from committing 100 percent."
The former Playboy model, 33, knew deep down she wasn’t going to get her fairy-tale ending: “It’s been more than five years, we don’t have a wedding date set … Nothing was going to change.”
Romain had his own side to the story. “I don’t know if it’s over forever but I’m pretty pissed,” he exclusively tells In Touch. “She is traveling all over the place anyway. There is no way anyone can be with her like this. That’s her choice."

We previously reported on the EPA‘s long-anticipated proposed rule to designate PFOA and PFOS as “hazardous substances” under CERCLA. The public comment period for the CERCLA PFAS proposed rule closed on November 7, 2022, and the EPA is now undertaking a review of the comments and will have the opportunity to determine whether to modify the rule before issuing a final rule.
In February 2023, the EPA also submitted a final proposal to the White House’s Office of Management and Budget indicating that it wishes to publish in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking requesting public input on whether the EPA should consider designating PFAS beyond just PFOA and PFOS as “hazardous substances” under CERCLA, and whether information exists to allow the EPA to consider designating PFAS as a class or subclass under CERCLA. On March 24, 2023, the OMB cleared the proposal, signaling that the EPA can now open for comment the notion of potentially expanding the CERCLA PFAS scope.
We have already written extensively on the enormous impacts that just a PFOA and PFOS designation under CERCLA will have on businesses. Now, with the EPA eyeing potentially adding many more PFAS to the CERCLA list, corporations, insurers, investment firms, and private equity alike must pay attention to this future potential change in law when considering risk issues.
CERCLA PFAS Scope Designation To Date
On January 10, 2022, the EPA submitted a plan for a PFAS Superfund designation to the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) when it indicated an intent to designate two legacy PFAS – PFOA and PFOS – as “hazardous substances” under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation & Liability Act (CERCLA, also known as the Superfund law). The EPA previously stated its intent to make the proposed designation by March 2022 when it introduced its PFAS Roadmap in October 2021. Under the Roadmap, the EPA planned to issue its proposed CERCLA designation in the spring of 2022. On August 12, 2022, a CERCLA PFAS designation took a significant step forward when the OMB approved the EPA’s plan for PFOA and PFOS designation. This step opened the door for the EPA to put forth its proposed designation of PFOA and PFOS under CERCLA and engage in the required public comment period.
When OMB initially contemplated approving the EPA’s proposed rule, it designated the rule as “other significant”, which meant that the rule was predicted to have costs or benefits less than $100 million annually. However, the OMB received several pieces of feedback expressing concern that such an estimate fa undervalued the impact that such a designation will have. More specifically, the Chamber of Commerce provided its own estimate that the CERCLA designation would have a cost impact of over $700 million annually. As a result, the OMB changed its designation of the EPA’s propose rule to “economically significant”, which triggered the EPA to have to conduct a RIA prior to proposing the PFAS CERCLA designation. Under the RIA, the EPA will have to provide support for its position that a CERCLA designation is justified to achieve EPA goals and to provide support for the contention that such a designation is the least burdensome and most cost-effective way to achieve the EPA’s goals.
Despite the call for a RIA by the OMB, the EPA nevertheless released its proposed CERCLA designation, leading many to believe that in the months when the OMB was reviewing the EPA’s proposal, the EPA was working on the necessary RIA analysis so as to not delay release of the proposed rule.
Additional CERCLA Designation
In February 2023, the EPA sent a proposed rule to the OMB that states the following:
“EPA plans to publish in the Federal Register an advance notice of proposed rulemaking requesting public input on whether the agency should consider designating as hazardous substances precursors to PFOA and PFOS, whether the agency should consider designating other PFAS as CERCLA hazardous substances and whether there is information that would allow the agency to designate PFAS as a class or subclass.”
The OMB reviewed the proposal and on March 24, 2023, approved the proposal so as to permit the EPA to proceed with publishing the Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM).
Opposition to CERCLA Designation
Since the EPA’s submission of its intent to designate PFOA and PFOS as hazardous substance to the OMB, the EPA has been met with industry pushback on the proposal. Three industries met with the OMB earlier in 2022 to explain the enormity of regulatory and cleanup costs that the industries would face with a CERCLA designation of PFOA and PFOS – water utilities, waste management companies, and the International Liquid Terminals Association

Getting the following error message when I enable the firewall:
Exception /tmp/iptables.out wasn’t created File:/var/www/html/admin/modules/firewall/drivers/iptables.class.php:1073
This makes the overview not work, either. Overview does work when the firewall is disabled.
Iptables from the command line is completely empty, except for Fail2ban…Fail2ban does appears to be working.
I’m also having an additional issue where system updates under system admin is stuck on ‘system is updating’ and will not allow me to upgrade, I have the same issue when I try to invoke the update from the command line. I have rebooted the system several times.
I have also tried fwconsole chown and just about every option from the command line. Modules are 100% up to date.

Water flow refers to the amount of water passing through a specific location within a given period of time. It is an essential indicator of the speed and quantity of water movement. The magnitude of water flow is influenced by various factors, including pipe diameter, water pressure, pipe resistance, and fluid viscosity. Accurate measurement of water flow is crucial for ensuring proper water supply, whether in residential water systems, agricultural irrigation, or industrial applications. Understanding and mastering the concept and measurement methods of water flow can help determine and regulate the appropriate flow to meet different needs.
Pressure tanks are essential components in water systems, playing a crucial role in maintaining consistent water flow. In this article, we will explore the significance of pressure tanks in optimizing water flow efficiency. We will discuss how pressure tanks work, their benefits, and their impact on overall system performance.
The Role of Pressure Tanks in Water Flow:
Pressure tanks act as buffers within water systems, regulating water flow and pressure. When the pump activates, it fills the pressure tank, compressing the air inside. As water is drawn from the tank, the compressed air pushes it out, maintaining a steady flow and water pressure. The pressure tank eliminates the need for the pump to start and stop frequently, reducing wear and tear on the pump and ensuring a smooth water flow.
Benefits of Pressure Tanks:
Pressure tanks offer several benefits that contribute to efficient water flow. Firstly, they provide a constant supply of water by reducing pressure fluctuations caused by pump cycling. This eliminates water hammer, ensuring a consistent and steady flow throughout the system. Secondly, pressure tanks improve energy efficiency by reducing the number of pump starts and stops. The pump operates for longer periods, consuming less energy and reducing operational costs. Thirdly, pressure tanks extend the lifespan of the pump by reducing its workload. With less frequent cycling, the pump experiences less strain and operates more efficiently, leading to a longer service life.
Impact on System Performance:
Pressure tanks play a vital role in maintaining optimal system performance. They help to meet peak water demands by storing excess water when usage is low and releasing it during periods of high demand. This ensures that water is readily available at a consistent pressure, preventing pressure drops and maintaining adequate flow rates. In addition, pressure tanks improve water quality by reducing the possibility of backflow and contamination. By preventing water from flowing backward into the system, pressure tanks help to maintain the integrity and cleanliness of the water supply.
Choosing the Right Pressure Tank:
To optimize water flow efficiency, selecting the right pressure tank is crucial. Factors such as tank capacity, material, and pre-charge pressure should be considered. The tank capacity should match the system's water demand to ensure sufficient storage and flow capacity. The material of the tank should be corrosion-resistant and suitable for the specific water conditions. Pre-charge pressure should be set appropriately based on the desired water pressure. Consulting with a professional and considering system requirements will help in choosing the ideal pressure tank for optimal water flow.
Pressure tanks are indispensable for achieving efficient water flow in water systems. Their ability to regulate pressure, reduce pump cycling, and store excess water ensures a consistent and reliable water supply. By choosing the right pressure tank and properly maintaining it, you can enhance water flow efficiency and optimize the performance of your water system.

Ioana Angela Similea (born July 9, 1946, December 1, Ilfov, Romania) is a Romanian singer of light music, very successful in the ’70s and’ 80s. Her big hits include: “Welcome Sunbeam,” “Unbearable Sadness,” “When the Boys Look at Us,” “Infinite Blue,” “If You Weren’t There,” “Hurry Up and Come,” “The Ballad of Open Love,” “Recall Me and I’ll Be Back,” “I’ll Sing for the Third Millennium,” “Don’t Take My Love,” “Life Goes Loving Before,” “The Last Tram,” or “Die of Love injured “.
Childhood and adolescence (1946 – 1969)
Born on July 9, 1946 in the commune of 1 Decembrie in Ilfov County, Angela Similea was the eldest of the three children of the couple Petre and Gherghina Similea, with two younger brothers. She has been attracted to music since childhood, when, although very shy, she used to sing when traveling by tram, to the displeasure of her mother, who always tried to make her stop. As a teenager, her mother’s severity, as well as the fact that she did not let her go out to tea with her friends, caused her an inferiority complex. A great influence in choosing the career of a singer was when she first attended a concert by Maria Tanase. However, due to her mother’s categorical refusal to let her pursue a career that did not provide her with material security, telling her that she had to have a “decent job”, she wanted to attend medical school to become a pediatrician.
During high school, music teacher Marin Teofil discovered her talent, guiding her to the composer George Grigoriu, who then conducted the UTC ensemble.He arranged for Angela Similea to take singing lessons with Florica Orăscu, who worked with many other performers from the same generation such as Aura Urziceanu, Dida Drăgan, Mihai Constantinescu and Olimpia Panciu.Because Florica Orăscu considered that the future artist had a “too crystalline” voice, she recommended that she start smoking in order to gain gravity. After a relatively short period, Angela Similea’s voice matured, descending and becoming deeper. He started singing in 1965 in the amateur movement, asserting himself within the Festival of amateur artists, obtaining the third place with the song “Plain under the moon” by V. Veselovski, then obtaining the first prize at the Bucharest Spring competition.
The debut of “The Golden Deer” and “An Infinite Blue” (1970 – 1979)
He achieved his first success with the second prize at the International Festival “Golden Stag”, in 1970 when he won the Silver Stag for performing the songs “After the night, the day comes” and “Twilight”. He debuted on television in the show-contest Emotions for the first time with the songs “Așa ești tu” and “Guantanamera”.
In 1971 he released George Grigoriu’s Twilight, with which he won the Special Jury Prize at the Ancora Děčín Competition in Czechoslovakia.
In 1972, at the Golden Orphan Festival in Bulgaria, she won second place with the song “You are my spring” by Florin Bogardo, her participation being mentioned by Billboard magazine.
In 1977, he released the song “Un albastru infinit”, composed by Marcel Dragomir, with which he would win the first prize at the Mamaia Festival. The musician also participated in the Sopot Festival in Poland where she had to perform the song “Un albastru infinit” and “Țurai” with Marius Țeicu and Olimpia Panciu. As the orchestra’s scores for “An Infinite Blue” did not arrive in time, although they were sent through the embassy, Țeicu performed the songs for the a cappella song “Pastel”, the night before the festival, to be performed by the Polish choir, the orchestration for “An Infinite Blue” being much more complex and difficult to play, so that Similea could participate. On the morning of the festival, the organizers decided to move Similea to the opening of the concert, but she refused. She would win the “Miss Zoom” award.
The apogee (1980 – 1990)
In 1981 he joined the cast of the musical Corina made by the composer Edmond Deda and Cella Tănăsescu after The Holiday Game (Mihail Sebastian), then My Brother, Charles (after the comedy The School of Gossip by Richard Rinsley Sher

NASA plans to return to the moon in the next decade, and it will not be for a quick visit this time. The agency wants to establish a long-term human presence on and in the space around the the moonbut that will require new technologies. NASA's Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) program aims to develop these technologies. Two NAIC projects have just moved on to Phase III, the most advanced they have ever had.
The first phase III proposal comes from Carnegie Mellon University and focuses on creating accurate models of craters on the moon's surface. The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) has mapped the moon for a decade, but the so-called Skylight mission (above) would use to go further by using high resolution cameras on a rover to create complete 3D models of craters.
NASA believes that such surface models would help determine the craters best suited for robotic and human exploration. This could be essential for finding and exploiting the ice deposits that exist on the moon. Back on Earth, the same technology could perhaps monitor mines and quarries.
The other project is also connected to in situ resource use The Mini Bee concept is a mission focused on "optical mining" that uses solar reflectors to power its mining operations. Based on the work of Californian company TransAstra Corporation, the Mini Bee could demonstrate ways to exploit asteroids to extract water and other volatile substances. An eventual version of the technology would collect the asteroid resources in an air bag before meeting NASA's Gateway Station in lunar orbit.
None of these technologies exist yet in real life. During Phase III development, NASA will award each team up to $ 2 million in grants to refine the designs over a two-year period. At that point, NASA will decide whether to continue development.
This will not be the last projects of NIAC to go forward either. NASA will advance at least one more project to Phase III per year as it moves toward a lunar mission. NASA's Artemis program aims to land on the Moon by 2024 with a human presence in place by 2028. What NASA is learning from Artemis will shed light on its way of planning and putting in place his future missions on Mars.

Jennifer did a fantastic job! She definitely knows what she’s doing! My dog’s cut was even, well rounded and came out so soft. Jennifer is very friendly and the salon is very clean!
Definitely a positive experience we called around to a lot of different groomers none of them answered their phones or called us back. Our Kitty had overnight grown a bunch of mats on her Fur that we could not get out we needed her shaved rather than risk cutting too close to the skin. We honestly felt guilty having thought our cat was overweight lol she's pretty healthy. And she almost immediately felt better at having all that weight of her hair gone she is much happier we can tell she snuggles with us more now crawls into bed with us, crawls into smaller housing places I know she loves her her new doo!
Elizabeth is the BEST! She loves my Molly like she's her own fur baby. She is kind, patient & always happy. Molly always gets excited when I mention Elizabeth's name ♥️

U.S. Oil Giants Poised to Gain on Keystone Pipeline
The following is an excerpt from the National Journal.
Three major American oil companies are poised to gain big if the Obama administration green-lights a controversial pipeline that would send 700,000 barrels of oil a day from the oil sands of Alberta, Canada, to refineries in Texas.
Shell, Valero, and ConocoPhillips are expected to ship oil via the Keystone XL pipeline if it’s approved, according to the companies and TransCanada, the Canadian company seeking to build the pipeline. Two Canadian companies, Canadian Natural Resources Limited and Cenovus Energy, also have signaled interest in using the pipeline.
The U.S. State Department has said it will decide by the end of the year whether to approve the pipeline. Its approval is needed because the pipeline would cross international borders.
Debate over the project has focused largely on its environmental and economic impacts. It would more than double the oil capacity—from 591,000 barrels to 1.3 million barrels a day—being shipped through the TransCanada pipeline system, a branch of which is already operating from Alberta to Illinois and Oklahoma. TransCanada hopes to start operating Keystone XL by 2013, which would run 1,700 miles in total from Alberta to Texas.
Some congressional Democrats and environmental groups oppose the Keystone XL project because of concerns about the extraction and production of oil sands, with processes that are more detrimental to the environment than conventional oil drilling. The method emits more greenhouse gases and damages the land around the extraction area. Supporters of the project say it is critical to weaning the U.S. off oil from unstable areas like the Middle East.
Little attention has been paid to what specific companies are positioned to benefit the most should the project be approved, and what that could mean for the oil shipped through the pipeline.
Shell is more than doubling its refining capacity—from 275,000 to 600,000 barrels of oil a day—at a refinery in Port Arthur, Texas. Port Arthur is one of two destinations for oil that would be shipped via Keystone XL. That refinery is half-owned by Saudi Aramco, the state-owned oil company of Saudi Arabia. The final destination for the additional oil refined at Port Arthur remains to be seen. But the connection between Shell and Saudi Aramco is galvanizing environmentalists.
“Oil companies say this will reduce our dependence on Middle Eastern oil, but in reality the pipeline will shift tar sands oil coming into America’s Midwest and send it instead to port refineries controlled by Saudi Arabia, who can then charge higher prices or ship it anywhere in the world,” said Jeremy Symons, senior vice president for conservation and education at the National Wildlife Federation. “America is becoming the middleman in the global oil business.”

There are 5 dog food options that are best for your English Bulldog.
The best English Bulldog food should at the very least include 25% to 35% protein. But this is not optimal for most healthy Bulldogs.
The biggest dietary concern in regards to feeding your English bulldog is controlling their weight. Choosing a quality brand of food with the essential nutrients and feeding healthy portions is the best way to keep your dog from getting chubby. Since this breed isn’t known for their self-control, it’s up to you to be in charge!
Bulldogs may be small, but they are also muscular. For this reason, it is important that English Bulldogs receive the proper amount of protein. They need to eat adequately to maintain their weight and body shape. The only problem with this is that many Bulldogs actually end up developing. This can make it difficult to find foods that work. Fish is the best source of protein for English Bulldogs.
Isn’t this just one of the best dog food for English Bulldogs
BEST Dog food for my English Bulldog puppy?
They don't call it the incredible edible egg for nothing! :) Eggs really are the best source of nutrition for an English Bulldog, as they are high in Omega 3 fatty acids and they contain needed vitamins in a natural form. About 100% of the nutrition in every egg is used by your dog's body, unlike processed supplements and dog foods. Finding the best dog food for English bulldogs can be a bit of a chore, since this breed suffers from a few common health problems. Plus, the put on weight pretty easy, so it often takes a bit of work to keep them lean.If you’ve just adopted or bought an English Bulldog, you’re probably already wondering about a hundred things like what kind of food is the best dog food for Bulldogs, what is their personality like or what kind of toys they want.Most pet owners head to their local grocery store to find a dog food with a low-price tag. Food is food, right? No, the first consideration should not be the price, rather, owners need to look at the ingredient list. As mentioned above, having specific ingredients can mean everything to the English Bulldog owner. Here are some of the best products on the market for this breed of dog.If you want to be sure you’re feeding your English bulldog the best canned or dried food, you need to carefully read the label. Terms like "gourmet," "super-premium," or "natural" don’t really tell you anything about what’s in the dog food. In the USA, pet food labeling is regulated on a federal (FDA) and state-by-state basis, with guidance from the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO). However, AAFCO provides only minimum requirements. The reality is that dog food producers very commonly use terms that are undefined by the regulations, in order to improve their product's image in the market. The AAFCO warns on their website that "it is not rare at all that labeling and marketing information is designed to appeal to the latest trend in marketing human products." In other words, the focus tends to be more on appealing to OUR preferences than on whether or not the food is suitable for YOUR English bulldog. For this reason, learn to look behind the marketing hype and find the real substance of the nutrition status within the dog food brands. On that note, English bulldogs should have a lower protein diet, under 25%.Though the English bull is not prone to have dry skin, the Fromm’s Four Star Surf and Turf formula is very helpful in keeping the coat shiny and moisturized. The protein content in this food is by far the best. It has mostly fish, which accounts for more than 30 percent of the calories. Though some foods have more than 70 percent in their protein content, 30 percent fall into the perfect category. Because the English bull often has weight problems, giving them a food with a higher protein content is always best. One thing reviewers talked about with this food is the fact that it pulls its carbohydrates from sweet potatoes. Also, this is another dog food that uses carrots to help with eyesight. Dogs like this food because of the tasty mix of fruits and veggies. This brand is a good blend of everything the bulldog needs.

Indian Epistemology and Metaphysics introduces the reader to new perspectives on Indian philosophy based on philological research within the last twenty years.
Concentrating on topics such as perception, inference, skepticism, consciousness, self, mind, and universals, some of the most notable scholars working in classical Indian philosophy today examine core epistemological and metaphysical issues. Philosophical theories and arguments from a comprehensive range of Indian philosophical traditions (including the Nyaya, Mimamsa, Saiva, Vedanta, Samkhya, Jain, Buddhist, materialist and skeptical traditions, as well as some 20th century thought) are covered. The contributors to this volume approach the topics from both a philosophical and a philological perspective. They demonstrate the importance of the subject matter for an understanding of Indian thought in general and they highlight its wider philosophical significance.
By developing an appreciation of classical Indian philosophy in its own terms, set against the background of its unique assumptions and historical and cultural development, Indian Epistemology and Metaphysics is an invaluable guide to the current state of scholarship on Indian philosophy. It is a timely and much-needed reference resource, the first of its kind.

It features MYCO coated seed for ultimate seedling protection, plus a combination of 3 elite tall fescue mixture: Justice, Rebel Exeda and Penn1901 which offers denser turf for improved sod production and greener color. These varieties are fine-textured, sufficiently low growing and persistent which is great for home lawns, parks, athletic fields, golf course, roughs, and sod production. It promotes low maintenance of turf, plus it ensures resistance to wear and diseases like Net Blotch, Brown Patch, and Fusarium Patch. It also has a high tolerance even with the toughest environmental conditions, heavy traffic, and low water input. It also provides superb performance in the transition zone. Available in 50 lb. bag.
Sow in sun or shade in spring or fall. Mid-summer sowing is not recommended except for areas of dense shade that can be well watered. Lime soil to 5.5 – 6.0 pH and follow soil test recommendations for fertilization. Maintain adequate soil moisture for proper germination. Under ideal conditions, germination may begin in as few as 9 days. Full germination may take up to 21 days. First mowing is suggested when plants reach approximately 2 inches. (7.5 cm).
Best when managed at 2.5 inches, though will tolerate lower heights.
is it to late to plant now (nov. 7 in northwest al.
We apologize but we are not familar enough with your region to know when the best time to apply the seed would be. You would want to reach out to a local master gardener in your area or cooperative extension or Department of Agriculture to find out the best times for applying seed to your lawn.

We wanted to shoot by the airport to incorporate Ann and Jamie's long distance love. After an interesting (and short!) ferry ride to Toronto's island airport, we found picturesque spots that also featured Toronto's beautiful skyline. Ann and Jamie came prepared and colour coordinated to show the motif for their spring wedding. We're hoping to do a Jersey themed shoot for their next session.

“How much stone will I need for the gabion cages?”
- Depending on the size of the gabion cage(s) and quantity ordered will determine the volume of material required to fill them.
- Volume is calculated on cubic metres (Length x Width x Height)
- Example 1 – Gabion Cage Size 1000 x 500 x 500
- Calculation – 1 x.5 x.5 = 0.25
- Material Volume Required = 0.25 cubic metre (approx.)
- Note – for low set or decorative gabion features (non structural) you can back fill the cage with old bricks | pavers | concrete etc to reduce internal volume. Decorative stone can be installed around the outer face of the gabion.
“Is the Elmich green wall (Versiwall) easy to install”
- The Elmich Versiwall is the most economical greenwall system available on the market. The easy to install wall brackets provide simple mounting to any wall type with suitable fasteners. Suitable for private residence as DIY or with larger commercial installations we can offer the services of suitable contractors to assist with installation.
“How high can I build a gabion retaining wall prior to council approval?”
- The general height rule for building a gabion retaining wall system (or any wall) is 1m prior to seeking approval from council etc.
- Please check with your local council as regulations may differ in your area.
“What tools will I require for assembling my Urban Kubez Gabion Cages?”
- The Urban Kubez range of gabion cages are the easiest gabions on the market to assemble. The only tools required is pliers for closing off the loop on the bracing wire and gloves to keep your hands safe while packing the stone into the gabion cage.
“Do I need to prepare footings for my Gabion Cages?”
- We recommend a solid and level foundation to lay the gabion cages onto. Using compact road base is the most efficient and cost effective method to achieve a solid base to work from.
- Preparation work is important in achieving a gabion wall with aesthetic value.
- If the gabion retaining wall is significant in height an engineer may require the gabions to be keyed (slightly buried) into the earth for additional stability against lateral pressures or concrete footing to support the weight of the wall.
“Whats the best way to fill the cages with stone?”
- Ultimately a gabion cage whether its an individual unit or a large retaining wall will perform best through hand packing the stone tight and neatly. This ensure the gabion is safe, functions correctly and offers aesthetic value.
“What type of stone do I use?”
- If the gabion wall is structural you will need to source aggregate such as basalt, blue stone, granite and other similar material that will not break down over time. These types of stone offer other benefits such as irregular sizes, angular

George Romney Galleries
By 1757 he was becoming well-known as a portraitist. He fell ill during his apprenticeship and was nursed back to health by Mary Abbott, daughter of his landlady.
In 1762, by which time he was married with two children, he went to London, and saw early success with a painting, The Death of General Wolfe which won a prize from the Royal Society of Arts. Romney soon had a thriving portrait business in Long Acre.
Despite his great success George Romney was never invited to join the Royal Academy nor did he ever apply to join. While there has been much speculation about his relationship with the Academy there is no doubt that he normally remained aloof maintaining that a good artist should succeed without being a member. His own career certainly supported this belief and it was only towards the end of his life that he expressed the slightest regret for his views
Portrait of Miss Juliana Willoughby, 1781-83 (National Gallery of Art, Washington DC)
Emma Hamilton as a bacchante by George Romney, 1785In 1773 he travelled to Italy with fellow artist Ozias Humphrey to study art in Rome and Parma, returning to London in 1775 to resume business, this time in Cavendish Square (in a house formerly owned by noted portraitist Francis Cotes). In 1782 he met Emma Hamilton (then called Emma Hart) who became his muse. He painted over 60 portraits of her in various poses, sometimes playing the part of historical or mythological figures. He also painted many other contemporaries, including fellow artist Mary Moser. After an absence of almost forty years, he returned to his family in Kendal in the summer of 1799. He was greeted by his loyal, devoted and unquestioning wife. George Romney is a kinsman of Mitt Romney, U.S politician.

American painter. He was physically handicapped and confined to his house until his doctor advised a wheelchair, which, when placed on a railway carriage, allowed him to travel. He took painting lessons as therapy from Franklin White, a pupil of Chester Harding, and became proficient as an artist. This enabled him to make a living painting portraits, landscapes and miniatures throughout New England and part of New York State. He kept a journal that lists 912 examples of his work executed between 1832 and 1846, with the names of his sitters, canvas sizes, the prices charged and where the pictures were painted. No examples of his landscapes have survived and only a few of his 80 miniatures have been located. The earliest miniatures date from 1836, but most were executed in 1842 and 1845 when he lived in New Bedford, MA. Few American primitive artists of the 19th century were as productive as Stock.ragnar sandberg
Ragnar Sandberg, född 16 februari 1902 i Sanne församling, Göteborgs och Bohus län, död 1972 i Stockholm, var en svensk konstnär.
Ragnar Sandberg var son till August och Johanna Sandberg (född Schagerholm). Familjen flyttade till Stenungsund och där de drev en diversehandel.
Sandberg studerade vid Valand för Tor Bjurström under 1920-talet. Han flyttade till Stockholm i slutet av 1940-talet och blev professor i teckning 1947 och sedermera i måleri vid Konstakademin. Sandberg ingår i den grupp av konstnärer som kallas "Göteborgskoloristerna".
Sandbergs första äktenskap ingicks med Elsa Sandberg (född Karlsson). I det äktenskapet föddes en dotter. Hans andra äktenskap ingicks med Birgit Broms Sandberg, och de har en dotter.

The Size of the Largest Land Animal
J. E. I. HOKKANEN
Department of Theoretical Physics, University of Helsinki,
Siltavuorenpenger 20, SF-00170 Helsinki 17, Finland
(Received 27 July 1985)
The upper mass limit to terrestrial animals is studied using physical arguments and allometric laws for bone and muscle strength and animal locomotion. The limit is suggested to lie between 105 and 106 kg. A possibility for a still higher mass, in case of new adaptations, is not excluded.
1. Qualitative Mass Limits
Since Galilei (1637) it has been claimed that the 100-ton blue whale can reach its size only because of the supportive aid of water. Land animals of similar weight would be crushed by the earth's gravitational field. Recent measurements of land mammals and dinosaurs, with some help from elementary physics, can be used in evaluation of the upper limit to their mass.
FIG. 1. An animal of mass M and leg bone diameter D.
For the kind of animals on land we know, a maximum weight necessarily exists. Let us examine, for the sake of simplicity, the case of the one-legged animal in Fig. 1. The force Mg due to the animal's mass M acting on a bone of diameter D and cross-sectional area A loads it in axial compression s
s= (Mg/A)µ (M/D2) (1)
µDenoting proportionality (g is the gravitational acceleration). Suppose our animal grows while keeping its shape unaltered. Constant shape means M µ D3, because D grows just like any other linear dimension of the animal. From equation (1), a steadily growing stress s µ D results, and the leg fails when s exceeds some critical value. To achieve a constant stress, the leg should scale as Mµ D. In the long run this will not do the leg would soon be too thick and heavy for any use.
Even more serious a limitation to animal size is the relative weakening of muscle strength. Stress in leg muscles obeys equation (1), too, but the relative size of muscles is more restricted, for the following reason: muscle mass Mm, like most morphological and physiological variables in biology, has so-called allometric dependence on body mass M
Mm = aMb (2)
where a, b are parameters to be determined from theory or measurements (see e.g. Schmidt-Nielsen, 1984). Now, the ratio Mm/M is about 0.4 irrespective of body size (Munro, 1969), so a 10 kg animal has 4 kg as Mm. According to the Dµ M1/2 law (b = 1.5) a 60 kg animal of the same shape would be nothing but muscle! A much weaker allometric dependence, b = 1.1, produces a large elephant (weighing 10 tons) of 80% muscle-bone would fill the rest of the body.
2. Quantitative Mass Limits
It is human nature to be curious about the exact mass for the biggest animal which could possibly survive on land. Were the biggest dinosaurs semiaquatic? Could they have been any bigger? In the last few years a study of mammal bone and muscle dimensions has been completed (Alexander et al., 1979, 1981). The material covers mammals from shrews to elephants. A comparison of dinosaur and extrapolated mammal leg bone dimensions is also available (Alexander, 1985). Quantitative results of bone failure and the relative weakening of muscle strength in large animals are derivable from the data.
(A) BONE FAILURE
Suppose M. is the mass producing the maximum compression in equation (1). It will then be the animal mass and the heaviest load the animal can carry combined. Denoting the allometric exponent for bone diameter D by d and using the proportionality from (1)
Mµ D2 (3)
we have for M.
Mx = aM2d (4)
Alexander et al (1979) found 0.32< d<0.38, so the value of 2d is below one and M grows faster than Mx. When M exceeds Mx, the animal collapses under its own weight. The parameter a remains to be found.
The strength of an animal is the strength of its weakest part. On the other hand, it would be poor economics to have some bones unnecessarily thick, so the bones involved tend to be under stresses of a kind. We choose here the tibia of a 50kg animal for our calculations. A bone can be considered as a hollow tube. The ratio of its inner and outer diameters is, for our animal, about 0.35 (Alexander, 1977). The allometric equations (with 95% confidence limits to exponents) for mammal bone length L and outer diameter D are
L=74× M0.32± 0.02, D = 4.

A video of Ghanaian international superstar, Black Sherif, alongside Burna Boy performing during Afronation Miami has sparked hilarious reactions online.
The two mega stars took to the stage for a performance of their monster hit, ‘Second Sermon remix’.
Blacko and Odogwu as usual brought their massive energy to their performance, delighting the capacity crowd at the venue.
Yet, social media trolled them despite their epic performance with one fan claiming ‘weed’ is the fuel behind their performance.
The netizen wrote: “Two wee boys working hard 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂,”
Despite the hilarity, other fans showed their support. One Ghanaian praised Burna Boy for his constant love for Black Shefi and said it is a characteristic of Nigerians to be very loyal.
“I love Nigerians if they say they will support you they do it with their full chest👌” another added.
Watch the two stars performing below…

Scarface is a 1983 American crime film directed by Brian De Palma, written by Oliver Stone, produced by Martin Bregman, and starring Al Pacino as Tony Montana. A remake of the 1932 film of the same name, the film tells the story of a Cuban refugee who comes to Miami in 1980 with the Mariel Boatlift, and becomes a drug cartel kingpin during the cocaine boom of the 1980s. The film is dedicated to Howard Hawks and Ben Hecht, the director and principal screenwriter, respectively, of the original film.
The initial critical response to Scarface was mixed, with criticism over excessive violence and graphic language. Some Cuban expatriates in Miami objected to the film’s portrayal of Cubans as criminals and drug traffickers.

Anyone that uses HVAC systems in a house knows what it means to have it running right. If an HVAC is not running well, it will cost plenty of money. To fully understand what you can do to have a smooth operating HVAC system, check out the useful tips in this article.
Know what you need before you hire a contractor. It will be difficult for an HVAC contractor to provide you with an estimate on the phone without knowing what your current setup is. It will be even harder if you cannot explain what you have done. So be aware of this information ahead of time.
Regularly remove debris from outside condenser units. You don’t know the amount of stuff that can pile up right after heavy winds or a storm. Overheating may be the result if you don’t.
When you are cutting the grass, be sure not to cover your outdoor units with clippings. Aim the grass clippings in the other direction. The same thing should go on when you blow leaves, so take your time when you’re working around HVAC units that are around when you’re blowing debris around.
Look for shade when placing a compressor outdoors. The cooler the air that the unit is able to access, the less work it has to perform.
For maximum efficiency, place outdoor units in a shady spot. It will help you save on your energy bill when you do this.
Now that you went through this article on HVAC, it shouldn’t be hard to understand what you need to do to keep things running well for a while. A malfunctioning HVAC system is not something you want, since that can run up your stress and budget. Keep these tips for referral so you can get your HVAC system to last a long time.

Does Achieving Fiscal Equity by Rural Litigant School Districts Diminish Student Achievement Gaps with Non-Litigant Districts?
Peevely, Gary L.
On March 22, 1993, the Tennessee Supreme Court found the method used by the state to fund local school districts to be unconstitutional. This finding culminated litigation filed by 77 mostly small, rural school districts known as the Tennessee Small School Systems (TSSS), claiming that the state's system of funding education was inequitable and violated the equal protection clause of the state constitution. The TSSS maintained that the inequity in funding was a determining factor in an apparent gap in achievement levels between the plaintiffs and those districts perceived to have adequate revenues. In 1992, the Tennessee legislature enacted legislation mandating a more equalized funding formula with a 5-year phase-in for full funding, and a new assessment system, the Tennessee Value Added Assessment System (TVAAS). A study compared TVAAS scores for grades 2-8 by year and grade level for the rural litigant and non-litigant districts during the 5-year phase-in period in the areas of mathematics, reading, language, science, and social studies. Findings indicate that the gap in standardized test scores between the two groups showed no real change as funding was equalized. (TD)

Melissa’s mom stumbled upon a tiny, flea-covered kitten while walking her daughter’s dog, Penny. Little did she know that this chance encounter would lead to an unexpected and heartwarming friendship between the two animals. Melissa’s mom, a strong and resilient woman who immigrated to the United States with nothing, had always been an animal lover. Over time, her love for animals grew stronger, and she became particularly fond of cats. However, her daughter didn’t want a cat. She wanted to get Penny a puppy instead, believing a dog would make a better companion. She couldn’t have predicted what would happen next, and neither could her mother!
Initially, Melissa was hesitant about her mother bringing the kitten home, unsure how Penny would react. But as she watched Penny’s excitement and curiosity around the tiny kitten, she knew she couldn’t resist. And so, the kitten, named Tangy after her tangerine-colored fur, became a part of the family.
Penny and Tangy’s relationship was surprising from the start. Despite Penny’s love for her human family, she had never shown much interest in other animals. However, with Tangy, it was different. The two formed an instant bond, with Tangy even playfully biting Penny’s toes – and Penny not minding at all.
It quickly became clear that Tangy was the baby sister Penny never knew she needed. Their relationship was not only unexpected but also deeply heartwarming. Over time, their bond grew stronger, and they began to do everything together. Tangy, who had been found in a place where her fate could have been very different, was now thriving in her new home. The once flea-covered kitten was now healthy and happy, thanks to the love and care she received from her human and canine family members.
One particularly endearing aspect of Penny and Tangy’s relationship was Tangy’s ability to fetch, a behavior not typically seen in cats. Over a year later, Penny and Tangy’s bond remains as strong as ever. They continue to cuddle, play, and spend every day together, proving that their unlikely friendship was meant to be. Through their beautiful relationship, they’ve shown that love knows no boundaries, even between different species.

City of Hope is a portrait of a typical middle-sized American city of the present day. The crux of the story is an old apartment block which stands in the way of a major commercial development. Joe Rinaldi is the building contractor who owns the buildings, and is being pressured to torch them to permit the development to occur. His estranged son, Nick, soon becomes a pawn in the power politics of the city. Corrupt Mayor Baci and policeman O’Brien are determined to push the development, while idealistic city councilman Wynn soon finds himself torn between what he knows is right and what his black constituents want.
User Reviews: A fantastic movie. Superb. Excellent. A keeper. I am definitely going to rent and re-view Brother from Another Planet. Ensemble type of movie. Low-key score. Dead on performances–everybody tight and sticking to the story, no histrionics or dopey movie-star closeups. If there’s a continuum of corruption movies with On the Waterfront on one extreme (intrusive score, ridiculous script, pandering to gorgeous movie stars) and Hands Over the City on the other (realistic portrayal of life with Rod Steiger and lots of extras), then this movie was closer to Hands Over the City. It’s not neo-realism, but the way in which everyone’s history haunts and thwarts them was excellent. And of course, the last scene is something to rewind and watch over and over again.

BEAT THE EXAM STRESS
Exams round the corner? Feeling stressed out? Scared? Baffled? Panic and anxiety attacks? Relax! Exams are an inevitable part of student life. Use the stress to motivate you to improve your work and performance.
So put all negative feelings at bay. Release the heightened tension. Try one of these to break the monotony of studying.
- Listen to good, soothing music to elevate your mood and boost your brain power.
- Take a quick walk down the road or run down the garden path. A good exercise can boost your memory.
- Create a study plan/time table. As you keep track of your progress, you will feel motivated to do better.
- Get good sleep. Don’t skip sleep. Sleep (5-6 hours) can help your brain to assimilate new knowledge into your long term memory.
- Meditation for a few minutes can help your mind to relax in the midst of all the flurry.
- You’ll love this. Eat some good, dark bitter chocolate. It acts as a natural stress fighter. Eat the right food. Say ‘No’ to junk.
- Break free from distractions like Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp. It leads to a significant waste of time. Instead speak to a family member to enlist moral support which can work wonders for you.
Now go ahead. Organise you time. Do your best. No exam is a ‘monster’ or ‘death trap’. Lets get excited about conquering exam stress, much like you’re ready to conquer the highest mountain. Take it as an exciting challenge.
And don’t forget, there is life after exams. This too will pass.
Good Luck!

Patent Filings Provide Clues to Future of EV Batteries
We are in the preliminary stages of an historic transition from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to battery electric vehicles (BEVs). The transition will be expensive and difficult in many ways. Innovation should ease this transition. Recently filed patent applications may provide clues about the direction of BEV innovation.
Most U.S. patent applications are published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) soon after they are filed. This article focuses only on USPTO patent applications, which also reflect BEV innovation just as well as patents filed in other patent offices around the world.
A U.S. patent grants its owner the right to stop others from making, using, selling, or importing products in the U.S. that are covered by the patent. A patent can be asserted against a competing product regardless of whether the product was created without knowledge of the patent. A patent can be an extremely valuable, and it can be exploited by its owner through litigation, licensing to third parties, or other means.
BEVs are powered entirely by electricity. A BEV power train typically includes a traction inverter electrically connected between a rechargeable battery and an electric motor. The battery provides DC power. The electric motor needs AC power to operate. The traction inverter converts DC power from the battery into AC power for the electric motor. The traction inverter also controls the speed and torque of the electric motor.
Batteries are the most important and expensive component of the BEV power train. Batteries are characterized by many factors including cost, recharging time, energy density, power density, safety, and lifespan. Smaller and lighter batteries reduce the cost and weight of BEVs. However, smaller batteries lack the capacity needed to assuage driver range anxiety.
Currently lithium-ion batteries are favored for BEVs. In 2022, numerous press releases announced plans to create new factories in the U.S. for manufacturing lithium-ion batteries. Such announcements increased soon after passage of U.S. Inflation Reduction Act, which places emphasis on domestically-sourced BEV batteries.
Lithium-ion batteries consist of an electrolyte, anode, and cathode. The electrolyte is where ions are exchanged between the anode and cathode while the battery is charged or discharged. Several different materials can be used for the electrolyte and electrodes (i.e., anode and cathode), each with their own advantages and disadvantages. These include:
- Lithium Cobalt Oxide
- Lithium Manganese Oxide
- Lithium Iron Phosphate
- Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide
- Lithium Nickel Cobalt Aluminum Oxide
- Lithium Titanate
The USPTO database indicates a total of 4,301 U.S. patent applications have been filed, which relate to lithium-ion batteries. A number of these patent applications may be directed to peripheral aspects of lithium-ion batteries including methods of recycling, monitoring, etc. However, most of the 4,301 patents are directed to the composition, structure, and methods of manufacturing lithium-ion batteries.
Nearly 40% of the 4,301 patent applications were filed during the last five years, which suggests that innovation in lithium-ion battery technology continues at a rapid pace. This also suggests that lithium-ion batteries will play an important role in BEVs for the foreseeable future. The chart below shows a geographic breakdown by applicant country of lithium-ion battery related patent applications that were filed in the U.S. during the last five years. It seems Japan has taken a leading role in the development of lithium-ion batteries since 2017.
Notwithstanding the importance of lithium-ion battery technology, the USPTO is seeing an increase in the rate at which U.S. patent applications directed to alternative battery technologies are filed, such as solid-state batteries. In contrast to lithium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries use solid-state electrolytes to transfer lithium-ions between the anode and cathode. Solid-state electrolytes provide batteries with a higher energy densities, longer lifespan, and better safety. However, there are some concerns about the price and complexity of manufacturing solid-state batteries at scale.
The USPTO database indicates a total of 1,302 U.S. patent applications related to solid-state batteries were filed, with nearly 74% of those filed during the last five years. The chart below shows a breakdown by applicant country of solid-state battery patent applications during the last five years. Again, Japan leads the charge in the development of solid-state batteries.
The traction inverter is another important and expensive component of the BEV drive train. Traction inverters, as noted above, convert DC power to AC power for operation of an electric motor. A traction inverter typically includes three phases or legs, each of which includes a high-side switch connected to a low

The invention relates to a method to form an efficient photovoltaic cell while minimizing fabrication costs.
For some fabrication techniques, it may be useful to minimize processing temperature during later stages of fabrication. Many standard steps performed during fabrication of photovoltaic cells, such as diffusion doping and oxidation, require high temperature.
There is a need, therefore, to form the structures of a photovoltaic cell while minimizing temperature.
The present invention is defined by the following claims, and nothing in this section should be taken as a limitation on those claims. In general, the invention is directed to a photovoltaic cell comprising a thin lamina having a p-n junction at the back of the cell. In some aspects of the invention, the resistivity of the base region of the cell may be reduced below conventional levels.
A first aspect of the invention provides for a photovoltaic cell comprising: a semiconductor lamina comprising a base region, the base region comprising at least a portion of a base of the photovoltaic cell, wherein the resistivity of the base region of the semiconductor lamina is less than about 0.5 ohm-cm, wherein the semiconductor lamina has a thickness less than about 50 microns.
An embodiment of the invention provides for a method for forming a photovoltaic cell, the method comprising: providing a donor wafer doped to a first conductivity type, wherein the resistivity of the donor wafer is less than about 0.5 ohm-cm; defining a cleave plane within the donor wafer; affixing the first surface of the donor wafer to a receiver element; cleaving a semiconductor lamina from the donor wafer at the cleave plane wherein the semiconductor lamina remains affixed to the receiver element; and completing fabrication of the photovoltaic cell, wherein the photovoltaic cell comprises the semiconductor lamina.
Each of the aspects and embodiments of the invention described herein can be used alone or in combination with one another.

Culture in Evaluation
Cultural Competency Strategy Statement
TCEC strives to practice culturally competent evaluation. This document lays out the steps that TCEC is taking to embed cultural competency in its work.
Culturally Competent Evaluation Workshop
Culturally Competent Evaluation in Tobacco Control Programs
A presentation by Rodney Hopson at TCEC's first workshop on cultural competency held in August 2007.
Culture in Evaluation Guides
The documents in the Culture in Evaluation series were developed with the input of community-based organizations and county health program staff working on tobacco control projects in California. These guides aim at helping organizations conduct evaluation activities with those population groups that the California Department of Public Health has identified as "Priority Populations".
- African American Communities
- American Indian/Alaska Native
- Asian/Pacific Islander Populations
- Culturally Competent Training Observation
- Hispanic/Latino Communities
- LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender) Communities
- Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) Populations
- Rural Communities
- Substance Abuse Facilities
- Making Your Evaluations More Culturally Competent

The Covid-19 pandemic is settling down and our life has returned to its previous state. Many of you might be back to busy work like before, however it is still important to take time to relax and centre yourself. Why not take a trip in search of such a moment?
Hokkaido is a rich land where you can easily get in touch with nature. Sapporo, in particular, is a blessed place where you can visit nearby forests and parks that preserve an abundant natural environment while still having the convenience of a city. Furthermore, there are many cultural facilities where you can have easy access to Japanese culture such as the tea ceremony and Zen meditation. Why not take advantage of this location to experience nature, Zen meditation and a table style tea ceremony in Sapporo, and turn your focus inwards using all five senses? It will surely be an unforgettable experience.
In this tour, you can enjoy the calm of forest bathing, a table style tea ceremony, and a Zen meditation experience.
1. You will walk along a wooden trail in the forest and enjoy forest bathing. In the quiet atmosphere surrounded by trees, you can feel the northern air with all your senses.
2. Next, you’ll experience a table style tea ceremony. You may think of the tea ceremony as something where you sit on tatami mats in Japanese style and drink tea according to complicated rules, but here you can sit on a chair at a table and casually experience the tea ceremony, which is said to be a comprehensive art form of Japanese culture.
3. Lastly, you’ll try zazen (Zen meditation) at a Buddhist temple in Sapporo. At a Soto Zen temple, one of Japan’s representative Zen Buddhist sects, a Zen master fluent in English guides you through how to do Zen meditation. You can choose to sit on a tatami mat with a cushion or use a chair during meditation. By experiencing zazen, which has fascinated Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple Inc., and other Silicon Valley executives, you may be able to find a new perspective on the world.
Sapporo is a big city with a population of 1.9 million, yet it is blessed with nature, with flowers blooming in the city center in the green season, many parks with various kinds of trees and plants, and vast forests in the suburbs. Not only tourists but also locals enjoy strolling through the forests and parks. First, let’s enjoy forest bathing in Maruyama Park, a lush green place of relaxation for local citizens.
Have you ever heard the word “forest bathing” or shinrin-yoku? It is a term that originated in Japan and is an effective way of promoting health by relaxing the mind and body while walking in the midst of forests, somewhat like sunbathing at beaches. In recent years, the term forest bathing or shinrin-yoku has been introduced overseas as well, and is attracting attention as a new health therapy. Walking comfortably through the forest, you can enjoy the green scenery, sounds, and scents of nature using all five senses.
Maruyama Park, where this tour takes place, is home to Maruyama Primeval Forest, which has been designated as a national natural monument. This mixed forest of coniferous and broad-leaved trees has also been designated as a wildlife sanctuary and is home to more than 100 species of birds and wild animals. There is a small 225-meter-high mountain called Mt. Maruyama in the park which has an abundant forest with trees over 100 years old, even though it is located right next to the city center. Trees such as katsura, Japanese elm, and oak grow wild, and birds, squirrels, and other small animals can be seen nearby. The park is also home to Hokkaido Shrine, a representative shrine of Hokkaido, and a zoo, making it a place of recreation and relaxation for the citizens.
Take a leisurely walk through its forest, looking at the greenery and listening to the songs of birds. You may even spot a small animal, such as an Ezo squirrel. Forget about work and all the problems that are bothering you, and just focus on walking in this forest right now.
Close your eyes and listen carefully to the sounds you hear in the forest. Do you hear the wind blowing across the forest? How about the birds? Do you recognize the different voices? How many different kinds of birds are there? You may even hear the sound of woodpeckers pecking at the trees. Listen to the sounds of the forest with your whole body focused on your ears. You will surely be able to concentrate deeply.
In addition, phytoncide emitted from trees is said to have a relaxing and refreshing effect. Feel the fresh air you can sense as you walk in the forest.
In autumn, the leaves of katsura trees give off a

The theory of certain errors involved in interferometric frequency calibration is developed. The origins of these errors are (1) the effective slit width of the monochromator and (2) the height of the slit. For uncoated, low reflecting interferometer plates a complete theory is given. For higher reflecting plates the effect of the slit height has been calculated in detail for one definite choice of reflection coefficient. The results of this calculation are thought to be representative also for other cases.
The main effect both of the slit width and the slit height is a blurring of the interference pattern. But moreover the maxima are displaced on account of the slit height effect. This may cause serious errors in calibrations. Curves are presented, giving the “fractional order” of the maxima for different cases.

Heat Pipe Calculator Use Instructions
Our online heat pipe calculator provides the following heat pipe performance data: heat pipe thermal conductivity by diameter, heat pipe carrying capacity (Qmax) by diameter & orientation, and delta-T from one end of the heat pipe to the other. From this last calculation, it’s simple to arrive at the thermal resistance of the heat pipe. All calculations are for a copper heat pipe using sintered wick material and water as the working fluid.
Heat Pipe | Heat Sink Input Section
Heat Pipe Length – the full length of the heat pipe if the evaporator is at one end.
Evaporator Length – the evaporator length is the length of the actual heat source.
Condenser Length – the distance between the points where the heat pipe enters and exits the condenser.
Heat Pipe Type – Select the heat pipe wick material ‘Standard’ or ‘Performance’ sintered wick material. Standard wicks will allow you to flatten the heat pipe more before affecting the maximum power (Qmax). Note that we can alter the heat pipe wick porosity and thickness to closely match the requirements of your application, although it is not shown here.
Operating Temperature – This is the temperature of the vapor inside of the heat pipe. It is difficult to know this number and the accuracy of this input is not critical. However, use the average of the Tmax ambient and the Tmax case temperature. Sample calculation: 50 oC Max Ambient, 95 oC Max Case = (50 + 95)/2 = 72.5 oC Operating Temperature.
Heat Pipe Results Section
Heat Pipe Effective Thermal Conductivity
The first table calculates heat pipe effective thermal conductivity from 3-10mm diameter. We probably should have put this last as it’s used once you’ve selected the correct diameter. Nonetheless, this figure is used as input into Excel and/or CFD modeling software such as FloTHERM.
Heat Pipe Carrying Capacity (Qmax)
Next, there is a Power vs Angle of Operation graph (shown) and corresponding table (not shown). Essentially this is giving you the maximum heat pipe carrying capacity (Qmax) of a particular diameter heat pipe at various angles. At “+90” degrees the condenser is directly above the evaporator, making it very easy for the condensed vapor (water) to return to the evaporator, hence the high Qmax.
There are a couple of heat pipe design guidelines that will come in handy at this point.
- First, heat pipe Qmax is additive, provided each heat pipe(s) is over the heat source. In our example, this means that one 8mm heat pipe has a Qmax of 62 oC in horizonal operation, while two 8mm pipes have a Qmax of 124 oC.
- Second, build in a safety factor to avoid running the pipe at maximum capacity. Derating the heat pipe Qmax by 20-25% is a good industry standard – in this case a single pipe would be rated at just under 50 watts. Occasional, short power spikes above this are OK so long as they are still below the rated Qmax.
Heat Pipe Thermal Resistance Calculation
The Power vs Delta-T graph and table (shown below) needs to be used in conjunction with the above graph. Let’s say we’ve selected the 8mm heat pipe we talked about earlier: in the horizontal position, it will safely carry just under 50 watts (after being derated). If we put 40 watts into one end, the other end will have a delta-T of 4.3 oC (lower is better). Let’s assume we wanted to use two 8mm heat pipes. In that case we could safely double our heat input to 80 watts. However, then using the chart we would still use the a 40 watt input figure because each heat pipe would carry 40 watts and the delta-T of each heat pipe would be the same 4.3 oC. To calculate the thermal resistance of the 8mm heat pipe, simply divide the detla-T by the input power. In this case it would be 4.3/40 = 0.11 oC per watt.
Flat Heat Pipe
The last bit of information given isn’t a calculation, it’s simply some guidance on how much you can flatten heat pipes of different diameters before the Qmax will be negatively affected. The reason the performance heat pipes suffer degradation before standard pipes has to do with the thicker wick structure of the former.
We hope you find this online heat pipe calculator useful. Visit our Calculators Page to see the heat sink size and heat sink performance calculators.

Cahill begins 7th term as New Brunswick mayor
- James Cahill has served as New Brunswick mayor since 1991.
- Cahill said Rutgers and DEVCO are adding $330 million of construction on the College Avenue campus.
- He said New Brunswick is committed to having a full-service supermarket at the Fresh Grocer location.
- The new $51.2 million Redshaw Elementary School will open Monday.
NEW BRUNSWICK – Mayor James Cahill was sworn in to his seventh term as the city's mayor on Friday and pledged to "give it our all" to continue making the city a great place to live and work.
Accompanied by his family, Cahill, who has served as New Brunswick mayor since 1991, was sworn in to office by retired Superior Court Judge C. Judson Hamlin.
Cahill ran unopposed for mayor in the November general election. He received 2,975 votes, according to the Middlesex County Clerk website.
Also elected were Cahill's running mates, incumbent City Council candidates Kevin Egan and Rebecca Escobar. Egan received 2,931 votes in the general election and Escobar 2,951.
In delivering his State of the City address, Cahill noted the $2 billion invested in the construction of new residential, retail, office, educational and health-care facilities in the city, and tax relief to homeowners and businesses by generating more than $21 million in annual revenue to support government, community services and public schools.
"In just the past 10 years, despite the worst national recession since the Great Depression in 1929, we have created more than 6,500 new jobs, a 29 percent increase in job growth, and reduced our unemployment rate to 5.3 percent. This is the lowest unemployment rate for an urban center in the state and below that of the nation, the state and the region, virtually unheard of for an urban center but has been a reality for use for the past decade," Cahill said.
Cahill said crime has been cut in half and 4,000 new homes, for all incomes levels, have been built. The city's population has increased to 55,000 and taxes have become stable.
He said the city's future looks bright.
"The mergers of Rutgers University and UMDNJ and the university's entry in the Big Ten created a new beacon of health education and cutting-edge research right in the center of our 'Healthcare City,' setting the stage for future creative collaborations and bringing an influx of new visitors to our city, eager to visit our businesses, restaurants, theaters and pubs and enjoy our hotels," Cahill said.
He said Rutgers and DEVCO are adding $330 million of construction on the College Avenue campus. The Aspire near Easton Avenue is nearing completion of 238 residential units, 20 percent to be designated as affordable housing, and 10,000 square feet of retail space.
Cahill said The Hub at New Brunswick Station, a Transit Village initiative, will transform the Ferren Mall into a retail, residential, dining, office and public space.
Although the Fresh Grocer supermarket closed last year, Cahill said he is committed to having a full-service supermarket at that location.
"We are presently in discussions with several potential tenants and I am confident we will see a new supermarket in our downtown in 2015," he said.
Neighborhood revitalization projects also are underway, he said, noting the transformation of the old firehouse at Remsen Avenue and Suydam Street into a neighborhood community center offering English as a Second Language classes, immigration reform forums, crime watch meetings and children's clubs.
The Pine Street Recreation Park will undergo a makeover this year. A multi-purpose field, skate park, water spray area, playground and community garden will be built. Areas for soccer, basketball and picnicking will be added.
A new county park also will be developed at the Wolfson parking garage site.
Work is underway on a county-funded New Brunswick Bikeway Project to create a bike lane connecting the Rutgers University College Avenue and Douglass campuses.
This year, Cahill expects to see the development of a long-term plan to make Livingston Avenue safer for pedestrians. Four lanes of travel were narrowed in three areas last year as part of a pilot program.
On Monday, Redshaw Elementary School students will begin classes in their new $51.2 million neighborhood school building. The Livingston Avenue school has 44 classrooms, an art room, computer lab, gymnasium, cafeteria, auditorium and playground.
"Memorial Stadium will also receive brand-new turf fields that will allow our sports teams to both play and practice on high-quality fields, while we explore options for improvements to locker and stadium facilities," he said.
Cahill said work will continue on the $3 million renovation

Rural Information Centers as Gateways for Agricultural Development and National Transformation in Nigeria: A Theoretical Framework
As a country that is endowed with ample natural and human resources, Nigeria has the potential of being Africa’s most vibrant economy and an active player within the global terrain. Having an expanse of 98 million hectares of land of which about 74 million hectares is arable, agriculture happens to be one of the major source of its national wealth after oil. Yet, it cultivates only 40% of the available farmland that abound and places more emphasis on oil. With the current tumble of global crude oil prices as a result of the oil supply glut however, the future of its economy remains fragile. Since information is a basic prerequisite for development and information centers are the strongholds for attaining coherent and adequate information, the establishment and adequate utilization of rural information centers that would boost the agricultural sector and facilitate a healthy national transformation remains paramount. As such, the premise of this paper is to showcase how rural Information centers can serve as pathways for Agricultural Development and National Transformation in Nigeria. To achieve this, related literature on the concept of Rural Information Centers (RIC's), Agricultural Development and National Transformation were explored. More so, the emergence of Rural Information Centers (RIC's), components of Rural Information Service, and the prospects of establishing adequate rural information centers that would serve the rural agrarian communities in Nigeria amongst others were highlighted. To this end, the paper suggested a blueprint on how to leapfrog into the information paradigm so as to foster a robust agricultural output for national transformation in Nigeria.

ARTS ABROAD; American Bard in Paris Stokes Poetic Home Fires
By ALAN RIDING
Published: October 4, 2000
PARIS— Legion are the young American novelists who have moved to Paris in the belief that this muse-city would release their innate talents. And for a good number of them it did. Far fewer, though, are the American poets who have settled here, almost as if they were fearful that this city's legendary powers of seduction would erode their identity as Americans, perhaps even weaken their resolve to become poets.
C. K. Williams, the New Jersey native who won this year's Pulitzer Prize for poetry, knows all about these dangers. When he first came here in the mid-1950's as a 20-year-old student and aspiring poet, Paris was the most exotic place he had ever known. But after he dropped out of the University of Pennsylvania to move here, the strangeness of the city proved too much for his inchoate writing skills. Five months later he went back to college to learn his craft.
Thirty years later, when he and his French wife, Catherine Mauger, finally did make their home here, Mr. Williams felt that it was now safe for him to be an American poet in Paris, that at 50 his cultural defenses were well in place. Yet soon he was worried. Exposure to Paris made him feel distant from the United States. So his solution was to return home to teach writing for a semester every year, first at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va., then at Princeton University.
''I started to feel I was getting too far from my roots,'' recalled Mr. Williams, 63, who now keeps homes in Princeton and Paris. ''I didn't want to be an expatriate. My poetry is so involved with the substance and texture of American life that if I'm trying to talk about social and political and even emotional realities, and I am not there, immediately there is a barrier between me and the reader. There is an assumption that I am not committed, which I am.''
This twin existence has served him well. Since he first moved to Paris in 1985, he has gained more recognition in the United States. ''Repair,'' his eighth book of poems, won him the Pulitzer Prize and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Poetry last spring. But already, in 1987, his collection of poems ''Flesh and Blood'' had won the National Book Critics Circle Award. (Both books were published by Farrar, Straus & Giroux.)
For five months a year he lives an American life, albeit hardly a typical one, that enables him to hear the language, feel the mood, observe the politics of the United States. Paris then offers a different perspective, a distance that gives him ample cause to meditate on, and worry about, the direction and values of his native land.
Mr. Williams, it has to be said, is a worrier, ''not a pessimist,'' he insists, ''but a worrier.'' But that already suggests a mellowing from the anger that first earned him literary renown in the late 60's and early 70's as a vociferous antiwar poet. His poem ''In the Heart of the Beast,'' about the killing of student protesters at Kent State and Jackson State Universities in 1970, begins challengingly: ''this is fresh meat right mr nixon?''
''At first all I wanted to do was to write poetry; I was oblivious to politics,'' he explained over coffee in the Cafe de Flore in the Left Bank neighborhood of St.-Germain-des-Pres. ''But in the 1960's it was impossible not to think about the Vietnam War, and I really responded strongly. The emotion that really drove me was indignation at the absurdity of it all. When my daughter was born in 1969, that drove me off the edge, the fact wars were going on, and people were killing children. I was in an incredible fury about the world.''
The style as well as the content of his poetry reflected this anger: short sentences, staccato phrasing, minimal punctuation, occasional expletives, urgency. The emotional outpouring, however, drained Mr. Williams. After publication of his collection ''I Am the Bitter Name'' (Houghton Mifflin) in 1972, after the breakup of his first marriage, he fell into a depression, ''a combination of divorce depression and poetry depression and post-book depression,'' as he put it. He even thought of abandoning poetry and trying his hand at film directing.
But he was ''saved,'' to use his word, by changing the form and tone of his poetry, specifically by adopting a stylistic device, long lines, that many critics consider the principal innovation of his poetry.
''For a long time I had been writing poetry that leaves everything out,'' he said. ''It's like a code.

The camera focuses from an interior space towards the broad windows of an abandoned, run-down schoolhouse in Olevano Romano, whereby the mountain range of the Italian landscape is only vaguely visible through the fogged up and stained glass panes. Just with the changing light their silhouette is gradually more highlighted. (Yet, through the opened sliding window, the landscape appears sharply contoured.) In front of the house there is a shade-producing concrete wall, which has arched recesses cut out in front of every window. Thus, the sash bars form a raster, which is sliced through by a wide semicircle. In front of the windows there are remnants of blinds dangling.
At first, the works are montages of photographs in sequences in multiple exposures. Thus, interior and exterior space become equally visible.
The photo series of one window show different situations.
Some videos result from the montage of sequences with minimal movements into the photomasks. The barely noticeable movements of the blinds’ pull cord and the gradually highlighted landscape are the only clues proving that these are not photos but videos. Other videos are created by cross-fading interval shootings. Fixed situations start to dissolve.
The series address the relation between the photo’s statics and the video’s movements: the photo bears the potential of movement in itself. In the video, the movement is reduced to the degree that a standstill is getting palpable. The photo tends towards the video, the video towards the photo.

New Yorkers may remember the industrial complex called 5Points in Long Island City that was covered in over 50 colorful spray-painted murals. The graffiti attracted tourists and local residents alike, helping to transform the neighborhood into a cultural destination. The murals were suddenly whitewashed before being torn down in 2014 to make way for new luxury apartments. Last week, a Brooklyn jury decided that real estate developer Jerry Wolkoff broke the law by violating the Visual Artists Rights Act, which protects public art of “recognized stature” on someone’s property. The suit was filed by the 21 artists who painted at 5pointz and who claimed the developer failed to give them a 90-day notice and thus took away any opportunity to salvage the artwork. They made the case that street artists are descendants of the old masters of Europe and the work they create has the right to be appreciated and treated like any other art. Art adviser and SPS instructor Renee Vara, who was an expert witness in the case, said “This is a win for artists’ rights all across the country. This is a win for the visual artists and their protection under VARA… This is a clear message by the people that the whitewash was a cruel willful act and Jerry Wolkoff was held accountable.” The jury’s decision addresses an important debate about whether graffiti should be protected by federal law and has important implications for other murals, street art, and development projects.
Registration is still open for the following Fall Courses at CALA:

View Full Version : Mooney-Rivilin Constants Calculation
I'm trying to design a EPDM rubber pad with ANSYS to reduce vibration or noise. And I'm going to do planar compression test to get a stress-strain curve.
Then If I have a experimental data, how can I calculate Mooney-Rivilin Constants?
I know how I can calcualte constants with ANSYS. But I want to make Mooney-Rivilin Constants calculation program with MS Excel or Matlab.
My question is when I have an experiment data, how can I calculate Mooney-Rivilin Constants?
First you have to derive a proper stress-strain relation and then find the constants associated with minimal distance between your experimental data and this function. This leads to optimization problem.
Instead of ANSYS, you can also try a freeware fitting utility HYPERFIT that can help you to fit the material constants for various hyperelastic models:
Mooney-Rivilin Constants Calculation
to find the mooney rivlin constants curve fitting method can be used.in that it can be selected for veriable parameters, means 2-parameter model or 3,5,9 parameter models. with this it can observe that the which parameter model is suitable for the model and we can directly get the model constants.to get this we require experimental data.
Have you got the hyperfit exe that run properly,, I tried to download it and dosen't works,
could you share it with me please?..
could you send me your PC configuration? I tried to run the HYPERFIT application on several PCs and it works. In one case however the application did not work (AMD Athlon 64 + WIN XP 32-bit), but I still do not know why. Your configuration may help me to solve that problem. Is there any system-generated error after the instalation?
now is working, it seen because I change the file name.. and run it, it did not reconized it.
now it is working..
call my attetion the 8 moths trial..
I dowloaded from www.hyperfit.wz.cz
But this error msg comes when I try to install it. ( filename change is not doing the trick)
"The setup files are corrupted. please obtain a new copy of the program"
following is my PC config.
Windows XP-SP3 32 bit
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Extreme
I am working with Hyperelastic models for various simulations. Your application seems promising and I would love to try it for my thesis..
Can you kindly send me setup files to firstname.lastname@example.org
thanks a lot
it is nice that (as you wrote me):
"It is working now in my original PC... I didnt do any changes but somehow it is working.."
I hope that HYPERFIT software will be helpful for you.
I am using the Hyperfit v 1.x at to retrieve the Mooney Rivlin
constants for my Uniaxial, biaxial and planar tests on rubber. I can easily extract the
constants for each individual test, but how can I get one set of constants for all three
tests? (as in a set of C10 & C01 that takes into account all three tests). I need this to
represent my material under global loading conditions. Your reply would be very much
sorry for late reply:
you can add more data-sets into one fit of constants to take into
account more tests.
1/ Just push the "Add new data-set" button in
the left top corner of application form and load/add your data-file. Repeat this for any additional
data-set (number of data-sets is not limited). This will add other data into application for further
fitting. Do not forget to change the "Protocol" listbox for individual
2/ Then you can arrange the sub-windows (containing the data-sets)
through menu (Window - Cascade)
3/ When you fit this arrangement now the resulting parameters take into
account all the data-sets.
4/ You can simply "activate" or "deactivate" any data set to try to fit the parameters from only a sub-set of data without the need of deleting and re-loading the data from files.
Regarding Hyperfit, I tried to run it using Wine in Ubuntu Linux, but get the following error:
fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.VC90.CRT"
err:module:import_dll Library MSVCR90.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\Hyperfit\\Hyperfit.exe") not found
