Xiaomi just unveiled a number of new products earlier today. Of course, the new Xiaomi Mi router was the highlight of the launches, but alongside it, we got to see several other accessories as well.
First up is the Xiaomi Yeelight Bedside Lamp. This smart lamp supports 16 million kinds of color changes. Inside, you get a high-quality OSRAM lamp, which is one of the leading lighting companies in the world. You have touch based controls on top of the lamp, or you can use your smartphone connected via Bluetooth to control the color shades of the bedside lamp. You have multiple color shade options such as cool or warm. The Xiaomi Bedside smart lamp will go on sale for 249 Yuan in the near future.
Next up is the Xiaomi Wi-Fi Mi Amplifier. Like its name suggests, this particular device works with the Xiaomi Mi router to extent the range of the device. This can come in handy in large homes, where Wi-Fi signal may not reach all the corners. So, to avoid dead signal areas, you can use this Wi-Fi amplifier from Xiaomi.
The device is pretty easy to use. You can plug into the Xiaomi Router to automatically pair both the devices. Then, all you have to do is connect the amplifier to a USB power source, and your signal strength will be nearly doubled. The device will start at 39 Yuan and will go on sale alongside the Xiaomi Mi Wi-fi Router.
The third accessory released today is the Xiaomi Mi Bluetooth Headset. This particular headset has won the prestigious 2015 German IF Design Award and features a special anti-stain coating in an one piece housing. The overall device measures 56 x 10 x 8mm and weighs just 6.5 grams making it ultra portable. You get 3 medical grade silicone ear caps as well.
The headset supports the latest Bluetooth 4.1 connection, which reportedly solves the problem of interference with 4G network signals. It comes with automatic noise reduction and can connect to two phones simultaneously. As for talktime, the company claims that the device can run for 5 hours continuously on a single charge. To full charge it from zero percent, it will take about two hours. It boasts of 1 week of standby and can operate at a maximum distance of 10 meters. The Xiaomi Bluetooth headset will go on sale from June 18 for a price tag of 79 Yuan.
Finally, near the end of the event, the company surprisingly made another announcement, this time a set of smart home products for just 199 Yuan. The smart home kit contains a number of smart sensors which can be used to achieve 30 different kinds of functions. For example, the motion detectors along with the gateway can perform functions such as switching on a light at night when it detect motion. Another example would be to use the door sensors and the connected air ventilator to start or stop as you enter or leave your house. The smart home kit will go on sale on June 18 alongside the Bluetooth headset.
Overall, it looks like Xiaomi wants a product in almost every category, with a special focus on smart home devices. The company already has a ton of products in the market and this should further increase the choices for customers.

Neath Port Talbot Council has been successful in securing a European grant of £1.1million towards the cost of new street furniture in Station Road and Forge Road and refurbishment of the existing shopfront canopy in Station Road.
Station Road and Forge Road now have new stainless steel and wooden street furniture including benches, tables, bollards, bins and lighting pillars as well as planters.
The main feature of the works is the refurbishment of the shopfront canopy along the pedestrian section of Station Road.
The existing structure has been remodelled and decorated to make it look more attractive and in keeping with the new street furniture. The curved plastic cover has been removed and replaced with straight panels of laminate glass creating more light and a more pleasant shopping experience.
Port Talbot Parkway Station
Plans for the multi million pound investment for Port Talbot railway station have been given the green light.
The station was the subject of extensive renewal works in the 1960s and was designated as a ‘Parkway’ in the 1980’s. Around ½ million passengers use the station every year and the proposed redevelopment has been welcomed.
The Regeneration team manages a number of property grant schemes aimed at improving business premises in commercial areas. The emphasis of the initiatives is on encouraging business growth and new ventures, creating employment and enhancing the commercial environment through high standard property improvements. The grants will complement other work being undertaken to regenerate town centres.

If you see the human problems, we cannot say why are we here. What's the purpose of our life? That's why many people try to find their identity, which I think is a real thing - one has to do is to find your own identity, why are you here on this earth. Science cannot answer this question. Why are we on this earth? What are we doing on this earth? What is the purpose of human life? What is the purpose of evolution? These questions cannot be answered by science.

A group of researchers from Max Born Institute (MBI), Berlin, and Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), Hamburg, has actually now observed a brand-new type of such wave blending procedure involving soft x-rays. Overlapping ultrashort pulses of soft x-rays and infrared radiation in a single crystal of lithium fluoride (LiF), they see how energy from two infrared photons is transferred to or from the x-ray photon, altering the x-ray “color” in a so-called third-order nonlinear procedure. Not just do they observe this specific process with x-rays for the first time, they were also able to draw up its performance when altering the color of the inbound x-rays.
It ends up that the blending signals are just detectable when the process includes an inner-shell electron from a lithium atom being promoted into a state where this electron is firmly bound to the vacancy it left– a state understood as exciton. Contrast with theory reveals that an otherwise “optically prohibited” transition of an inner-shell electron contributes to the wave blending process.
Via analysis of this resonant four-wave blending procedure, the researchers get a detailed photo of where the optically excited electron travels in its extremely short life time. “Only if the fired up electron is localized in the immediate area of the hole it has left behind do we observe the four-wave mixing signal,” says Robin Engel, a PhD student included in the work, “and because we have used a specific color of x-rays, we understand that this hole is extremely near the atomic nucleus of the lithium atom.”
Due to the ability of x-rays to excite inner shell electrons selectively at the various atomic species in a product, the shown approach enables researchers to track electrons moving around in molecules or solids after they have actually been stimulated by an ultrafast laser pulse. Precisely such procedures– electrons moving towards different atoms after having been delighted by light– are essential steps in photochemical responses or applications such as light harvesting, e.g., via photovoltaics or direct solar fuel generation.
” As our wave-mixing spectroscopy method can be scaled to much higher photon energies at x-ray lasers, several atoms of the table of elements can be selectively excited. In this method we expect that it will be possible to track the transient presence of electrons at numerous various atoms of a more complex product, giving brand-new insight into these crucial processes,” discusses Daniel Schick, researcher at MBI.

This is various for very intense laser pulses which fulfill in an ideal “nonlinear material”– here, beams can be deflected and brand-new beams of various color can be created in a procedure called wave-mixing. Scientists from MBI and DESY have actually now observed how an x-ray beam interacts with a laser beam, paving a route to atom-selective research studies of ultrafast procedures in the future. Credit: Anne Riemann, Forschungsverbund Berlin e.V.
Unlike fictional laser swords, real laser beams do not interact engage each other when they cross– unless the beams meet within a suitable ideal that allows permits nonlinear light-matter interaction.
Wave-mixing procedures between different light beams are one foundation of the field of nonlinear optics, which has ended up being strongly developed since the extensive availability of lasers. In this procedure, energy and momentum can be exchanged, giving increase to extra laser beams emerging from the interaction zone in different instructions and with different frequencies, which is seen in the noticeable spectral variety as various colors.
Just as important, the analysis of the emerging light beams in wave mixing phenomena provides insights into the nature of the material in which the wave mixing procedure takes place. Such wave-mixing based spectroscopy allows researchers to understand the complexities of the electronic structure of a specimen and how light can communicate and excite with the material. Far, nevertheless, these methods have actually been barely used outside of the infrared or noticeable spectral range.

After partnering with Qualcomm for developing an autonomous driving technology, South Korea-based LG has now announced a partnership with HERE Technologies. Both the companies will now work on a next-generation telematics solution for autonomous vehicles.
In this partnership, LG will use its advanced telematics technology with high-precision map data, while the location services will be powered by the HERE Open Location Platform.
Telematics deals with integrating telecommunications with informatics for providing services such as navigation and entertainment. It uses technologies such as GPS, Bluetooth, WiFi and DMB.
Lee Woo-jong, President of LG’s Vehicle Components Company, said,
We’re excited to present a new standard for autonomous mobile communication solutions in cooperation with HERE, which has unsurpassed cutting-edge automotive guidance technology. With partners like HERE, LG can continue to advance the next generation of connected car technologies to help prepare automakers for the self-driving era.
HERE is working on developing HD Live Map — a cloud-based map service that supports connected advanced driver assistance systems and automated driving solutions.
It’s the same system that LG intends to deploy in the new solution. This will enable automakers to identify all roads and surroundings such as lane markings, stop signs, crosswalks, speed signs, traffic lights, etc.
Moon Lee, VP of HERE Technologies, said:
We believe our Open Location Platform-powered services can play a critical role in next-generation telematics technology for autonomous vehicles, and we’re excited to be working with LG to make this a reality.
Using this next-gen telematics offering, cars will be able to use their ADAS (Advanced Driving Assistance Services) to collect information on the road, along with information on cars surrounding them using the V2X (Vehicle to Everything platform).
The collected information will then be sent to the cloud servers. Them, LG and HERE’s telematics solution will analyze the collected data and send customized driving information to the car.

Though recorded in 2014, it was only after Allan Browne’s death that Julien Wilson revisited the recordings and decided that this album should be released. Thankfully for all of us, this decision was made. Recorded live in Sydney on a promotional tour for his Bell Award winning CD This Is Always with the same personnel, the group performed a completely new set of eight Wilson originals.
The result, a fine quartet recording, brimming with sophistication and muscularity. Wilson’s flowing fluid tenor; McAll’s scrumptious playing, supported by a dream team rhythm section, all add up to a major win. But, that being said – it takes worthy compositions to showcase quality players such as this and Wilson again proves he is a gifted composer. Prolific melodic flair and the ability to compose in almost any style, is a key ingredient in this masterful recipe, the slow paced opener “Rainman” is an epilogue to the up-tempo “McGod” and continues through the list of tunes that continue to prove the groups overall like mindedness and Wilson’s keen composition ideas. He closes the album with the appropriately titled “Farewell” on clarinet further peaking my interest at the same time begging the question, why doesn’t he play it more often.
A welcome follow-up to the quartet’s award winning predecessor, and one that establishes Wilson with firm footing as one of the leading tenor saxophonist. In combination with McAll and the late Browne, the outcome of this recording is a fitting tribute to one lost in the musical journey, but a standing remembrance and a befitting farewell to a friend.

Rideau Canal National Historic Site of Canada
The History of the Rideau Canal
Specifications of the Lockstation:
One lock with a lift of five feet.
Lockmaster's house©Parks Canada
This site's original name was First Rapids, so called because it is the first lockstation encountered in a descent toward Ottawa on the Rideau system."First Rapids" was used interchangeably with "Poonamalie" until the late 1850s, after which the latter name dominated. Tradition has it that this name is also a reflection of one of the physical characteristics of the site – an officer of the Royal Engineers who had served in India named it after a place he had seen on the subcontinent, a site with similar cedar-lined roads.
The defensible lockmaster's house at Poonamalie was built around 1842. A frame second storey was added in the late 19th century (1893).
The one and a half mile artificial channel and lock chamber bypassed the original rapids. A natural depression was used to start the channel. The lock required no major repair during the 19th century. The dam, however, has undergone extensive repairs since the mid-1800's. This structure is of great importance because it restrains the waters of the Big Rideau and Lower Rideau Lakes, and it controls the water supply from Poonamalie to the Ottawa Locks. The dam's location at the lower end of the Rideau Lakes makes it extremely vulnerable to the heavy spring runoffs common throughout the canal. In the spring of 1869 part of the embankment at the top of the cut was washed away. Local residents helped to repair the break and navigation was soon restored. Low water levels posed a problem in 1904 when a large sheet of ice broke part of the main timber dam. When the ice broke up in the spring, instead of flowing over the dam, it struck against the back of the dam and destroyed 3/4 of the structure. The break in the dam caused damage to roads and bridges in Smiths Falls and even as far downstream as Merrickville. A new dam of concrete replaced the old timber structure.

Grafting of poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers (PET) with 2-methyl-5-vinylpyridine (MVP) was carried out using γ rays and benzoyl peroxide independently for the initiation of grafting. The poly(MVP)-PET graft copolymers were analyzed for density, moisture regain, and dyeability. Radiation-induced grafting yielded copolymers with densities and moisture regain appreciably higher than those produced by benzoyl peroxide. The same results occurred when acid dyes were used. The behavior of (MVP)-PET graft copolymers towards some reactive dyes was also studied. The extent and rate of dyeing were dependent of pH of the dye bath, nature of the dye and the magnitude of grafting. Dyeing occurs through formation of salt linkages between the pyridine moieties and the solubilizing groups (usually sulfonate groups) in the dye molecule.

What does it mean to be moral? It would seem that most people agree on some common ideas most of the time: tell the truth, do not harm others, and help out those in need. Yet, there are two divergent schools of thought on many moral questions: deontological and consequentialist. In this post, I want to consider whether it is possible for there to be a moral framework based on duties and obligations without a God.
Atheists of course do not believe in God while deontologists evaluate moral actions based upon duties. Consequentialists believe that the most moral action in a given situation is that which produces the best consequences. For someone who believes in God, it is relatively easy to be a deontologist. The Bible, the Quran, and the Torah give out clear guidelines for duties that people have in life. An omnipotent, omniscient being is telling us what the right thing to do is.
If there is no God, then people have to decide in some way what duties and obligations there are in life. There are a couple of ways possible. First, we could decide what duties and obligations we have based upon what the majority of people want. In the same way that majorities of citizens decide which clothing is fashionable, or what our healthcare system should be like, majorities would then decide our moral duties.
The problem is that majoritarianism can produce all manner of unjust arrangements. One need only look at the majority of Southerners who supported Jim Crow laws, or the majority of Germans who approved of anti-Semitism. For every example I give here, there are probably dozens of others. Is this record particularly inspiring?
The second way would be more subject to individual interpretation. Even if the majority of citizens felt one way about morality, perhaps individuals could by themselves reason what duties and obligations they had. They would not be able to merely assert that duties exist based upon their feelings; they would have to figure their duties out through reflection and thought, and be able to prove them through argument and debate. There are a few problems though. First, many if not most people lack the time for this. They have jobs and families to support. Will they really be able to devote the time to reasoning through what their moral duties are?
Second, invoking reason gives a person ample opportunity to consider a consequentialist framework for a moral decision. If a person is busy trying to derive the moral duties he ought to live by through reason, then that same reason will cause him to consider self-interest as well as costs and benefits to a moral decision.
Indeed, reason will require that he do so since he cannot make a reasonable decision without having taken these things into account. This means that for many if not most people, concern about consequences will have a chance to also inject itself into the moral decision-making process. If this concern drives the process even a little bit, then it is difficult to envision the final decision being based entirely on duties and obligations.
Perhaps ironically given these difficulties, to believe that most people can uphold a deontological framework absent a God most of the time may require an act of faith. Of course, this does not mean it is impossible for someone who doesn't believe in God to make decisions based on duties and obligations. Perhaps most importantly, it doesn't tell us whether deontology is the right framework to evaluate moral decisisions.

So what exactly has received within the initiative to change Paris itself?
Some time ago, they had many different disastrous fires in squats while in the city centre causing tragic circumstances. The centre right government immediately decided eradicate any remaining squats following a incidents, and in this were improving general security and increasing police presence during the city.
Step-By-Step No-Hassle Secrets Of France’s social efforts
France had for ages been controlled by a centre left Socialist party who tended to use a relaxed attitude to police presence and security, giving a slightly higher priority to social security and keeping generous state pension plans instead. The current changes in the present day reflect the popular priorities in French life.

摘要：Water poverty is difficult to evaluate because it is multidimensional. It is determined not only by the availability of water sources but also whether communities have adequate access to clean, uncontaminated water. It is also dependent on the resource needs of those using the water. Under the premise that water scarcity is multidimensional, we use a Water Poverty Index approach using Principal Component Analysis to develop an index at the household level in 10 villages in one large farming community to examine each household's subjective view of well being as a result of water poverty. This paper reviews how water resources endowments and depletion because of indiscriminate disposal of untreated industrial wastewater, household sewage and climate change are posing serious threats to water poverty at the household level in developing agrarian economies like Pakistan. We report from our results that both the perceived level of pollution and the proximity to clean and polluted water sources matter significantly for subjective well-being in rural households of Pakistan. The villages closer to polluted water sources are unhappier while the villages, which have better access to fresh water, have relatively higher subjective well-being. A strong implementation of environmental protection measures and regional strategies are suggested to alleviate water poverty and increase subjective well-being in local communities.

Ashley Tisdale checked in on set of her music video for ‘It’s Alright, It’s OK’ off her new album ‘Guilty Pleasure’. The ‘High School Musical’ alum was really tired after a long day of shooting, videotaping her message at 1:40 AM suggesting there were several more hours of shooting left.
“It’s like twenty to two. I’m getting really tired and we’re not even halfway done, so I’m gonna have to have some coffee to stay awake,” Ashley admitted. “It’s kind of been crazy. We just did my performance part and now we’re doing little bits and pieces. It went really well. I was freezing cold I was in the cold for so long. But I’m doing good. I’m having fun. I can’t wait to finish it and go to bed, which will probably be 9 in the morning.”

Do Candy Cane corals flow?
Candy Canes generally do best when placed in areas with moderate flow & lighting, however they can be slowly acclimated to accept either lower or higher lighting & flow.
Is my candy cane coral splitting?
yep it’s splitting alright. Leave it alone and you will have 2 heafs in no time.
Do Candy Cane corals need to be fed?
They do get some of the food and energy they need from the light because they have symbiotic zooxanthellate, but like most LPS corals, the candy cane coral also should be fed a few times a week with small particles of a meaty saltwater fish or coral food.
Are Candy Cane corals aggressive?
Are Candy Cane Corals Considered Aggressive? Candy Cane corals do have sweeper tentacles that could sting a coral. With that said, the Candy Cane sweeping tentacles are very short and could only affect corals located extremely close to them.
Why is my candy cane coral turning white?
If they are old, then the spectrum has changed and could be bleaching them. If they are new bulbs, you have to acculmate them to light or they will bleach. If the shroom and candy are close enough they could have chemical warfare.
How fast does candy cane coral grow?
Mine grew very slowly under CF lighting. I used to feed it like crazy, had good flow, and god calcium and magnesium. It went from 2 heads to 7 or 8 in about 18 months.
How fast do Trumpet corals grow?
IME they seem pretty slow, maybe 2 to 3 months for the whole process. But it will seem faster the more heads you get.
What do you feed candy cane corals?
Like many other LPS, candy cane corals can be fed a mix of meaty foods such as mysis or krill. Here at Tidal Gardens we do not go out of our way to spot feed these corals, but it can be accomplished easily. Candy canes open up and extend feeding tentacles when they detect food in the water.
Where should I place candy cane coral?
To begin with, we recommend that you place your Candy Cane corals in a shaded, low-flow area of your aquarium and then slowly move them to your preferred location over a period of several weeks. If the corals’ polyps retreat, move the Candy Canes lower down in the tank where the lighting is more subdued.
Why is my candy cane coral not opening up?
If you don’t see the feeding tentacles extended, it is worth checking out the tank, after dark, to see if the coral opens up then, or if the tentacles can be coaxed out by feeding. If you literally never see the feeding tentacles, this may be a sign of stress. Close up of Candy cane coral feeding polyps.
What should I Feed my candy cane coral?
When feeding a Candy Cane coral, you should consider some tips. First of all, you should feed them frequently, with small pieces of fresh marine food or coral food. Brine and Mysis shrimps are a recommended food. Feeding a couple to several times a week will be fine.
How big does a candy cane coral get?
A healthy candy cane coral colony (say that tongue-twister 5 times in a row) will create additional branches as it grows. They are considered to be large polyp stony corals.

Activities Week 2012
This year, we had our activities week on 14 – 16 May. We have lots of fun on the activites week watching and being involved on the program. On 14 and 15 May, a night concert was held too on the function room inviting the parents and other guests.
On 14 May in the morning was the Science Day. On the Science Day, we made an interactive science project by partner which is presented on the function room. My partner was Faris and we made Anti-Gravity Water project This project shows how a water in a round glass covered with a handkerchief and when the glass is turned upside-down, the water stays inside the glass without falling. Some audiences gave us some stars which means that our project was one of their favorite projects. There are other more interesting projects too made by my classmates. At night, we have a concert. The concert was Angklung Festival which is performed by Grade 1 to Grade 6 and the orchestra. They are presenting different songs in angklung followed by an interactive angklung playing where the audiences play Tanah Airku with angklung accompanied with the orchestra and all the performers singing Tanah Airku.
The next day was 15 May and it was Library Day. We celebrate the Library Day by having a costume parade. We are wearing costumes worn by a book or movie character. While waiting for the costume parade, we are playing some games, then we went out for costume parade while the judges chose the best costume and give prize to the winners. After the costume parade, its time for lucky draw. I almost got it, but I wasn’t really listening carefully, so I miss the prize, but I’m hoping that next year I’ll got it. After the morning program, we have another night concert. Now is our turn, the Junior High School with the guitar class, violin class, dance class, orchestra and some students from SLB. In this concert, I was performing ‘You’ song with my friends and the Grade 8.
Finally we came to the last day of the activities week, 16 May. It was International Day followed by potluck lunch. In this day I was performing Malay dance and singing ‘Je Veux’ which is a French song sang by the French class of Grade 7 and 8. The Malay dance was the opening program of the Inernational Day, we had a hard time putting on the costumes and the make up, but over all we did a great performance. After our Malay dance, we change our costumes into a black T-shirt and blue jeans for our next performance. We also did a great job singing ‘Je Veux’. After the performance, we came to the end of the program, the potluck lunch. We had our lunch together, the foods are from different cultures.
This activities week gave us some fun and some things to learn. On the Science Day, we learnt about science in an interesting way through experiments which is enjoyed by everybody who watched it. On the Library Day, we learnt about new books and it’s authors and we are encouraged to read more book. And on the International Day, we learnt about different songs sang in different countries in the world. We also learnt about some foods of other cultures. But from this International Day, the most important thing we learnt is to appreciate other people’s culture. It was a fun activities week and I hope we can have a better activities week next year.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Illinois Conservation Police Cite Businesses That Violate Aquatic Invasive Species Laws
SPRINGFIELD, IL � Three out-of-state businesses have been prosecuted for violating Illinois laws governing the importation of fish species that can become invasive, or can potentially spread Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia (VHS). Investigations by the Illinois Conservation Police have resulted in fines of nearly $30,000, with the potential for additional fines as the remaining case is adjudicated.
Sweetwater Springs Fish Farm of Peru, Indiana was fined $25,000 for selling or importing over $153,000 worth of aquatic life without required licenses or permits in Illinois. The business entered a guilty plea in Cook County court to unlawful import of Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia (VHS) susceptible species without import permits. Realistic Bait, LLC of Lowell, Indiana was fined $4,000 for failure to possess a non-resident aquatic life dealer�s permit, VHS import permit, or restricted species permit. Farm Cat, Inc. of Lonoke, Arkansas also was cited for importing fish without the proper permits. Charges are pending.
�Illinois Conservation Police will take a strong stand against Aquatic Nuisance Species, and will take all steps necessary to prevent the spread of invasive species of fish and disease,� said Rafael Gutierrez, Chief of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources Office of Law Enforcement. �We expect those who import fish into Illinois will strictly follow all rules and procedures to keep these invasive species out of Illinois ponds, lakes, streams and rivers.�
All cases have been or are currently being prosecuted with the assistance of the Environmental Crimes Bureau of Illinois Attorney General�s Office.
Realistic Bait, LLC / Owner Phillip Taylor
Realistic Bait, LLC unlawfully imported minnows and grass carp into Illinois without required permits. Realistic Bait, LLC also did not possess a non-resident aquatic life dealer�s license, VHS import permit, or restricted species permit. The investigation revealed Realistic Bait, LLC was delivering bait fish to seven different businesses in Will and Grundy Counties. The invoices gathered from those businesses totaled over $14,000. On June 18, 2013, an employee of Realistic Bait, LLC was observed selling live bait at a business in Will County. Conservation Police seized Golden Shiners, Fathead Minnows, and White Suckers. The minnows were tested for VHS and the results were negative. Both the owner and company entered guilty pleas on August 19, 2014, to the unlawful importation of Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia (VHS) susceptible species without import permits. Fines totaled $4,000.
Sweetwater Springs Fish Farm / Owner Mark Eikenberry
Compliance checks conducted on fish markets in Chicago in 2012 revealed Sweetwater Springs Fish Farm and owner Mark Eikenberry were supplying grass carp, bluegill, channel catfish, largemouth bass, striped bass, bighead carp, tilapia, eels, and turtles to those markets. Eikenberry did not have a VHS or Restricted Species permit. Eikenberry�s non-resident aquatic life dealer�s license was also expired. In September of 2012, Sweetwater Springs Fish Farm was stopped in Effingham County while hauling live grass carp, largemouth bass, hybrid bluegill, channel catfish, and turtles without a VHS or Restricted Species permit. VHS results for the fish were negative. An additional test of the sampled grass carp revealed they were diploids, meaning they could reproduce. Further investigation revealed Sweetwater Springs Fish Farm had sold or imported over $153,000 worth of aquatic life without required licenses or permits in Illinois. On January 30, 2014, Sweetwater Springs Fish Farm and Eikenberry entered a guilty plea in Cook County court to unlawful import of Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia (VHS) susceptible species without import permits. Fines totaled $25,000.
Farm Cat, Inc. / Owner Thad Finley
In February of 2014, Illinois Conservation Police learned Farm Cat, Inc. had delivered live channel catfish to a Chicago fish market without a VHS import permit and non-resident aquatic life dealer�s license. Invoices gathered from six different businesses showed Farm Cat, Inc. had delivered largemouth bass, grass carp, channel catfish, and tilapia. Further investigation revealed that between January of 2013 and April of 2014, Farm Cat, Inc. had imported and sold over $712,000 worth of aquatic life without the required dealer�s license and or VHS import permit. Charges against Farm Cat, Inc. and owner, Thad Finley, are currently pending.

how the bend test is performed on API 5l x52 psl2 pipe?
The metal pipes have certain limitations. The standards and specifications specify the limitations for each grade. The x52 line pipe also has some limitations for the load. After a certain level of external or internal force, the pipe will start to bend or deform. This mandates a bending test to be performed to know the minimum force needed to bend a pipe so that it is carefully applied in the application not to bend the api5lx52 pipe at unnecessary places. A sample of the pipe is presented on the universal bending machine. There are 3-point loading and 4-point loading test methods. The force or load is applied on 3 points or 4 points of the sample at intervals equal to 10 times the outer diameter of the pipe. When the force is applied, the deformation, ductility, and uniformity of the pipes are.

The Dark Side of Social Media
What I can not deny is that yes, social media has brought great opportunities for the world such as reconnecting with old friends, staying in touch with relatives, marketing for new products, events & musicians, a few memes or even just simply a place to write & share photos from our vacations & day to day experiences. But at what cost has social media truly charged us? Social media has become one of the largest causes for modern day loneliness, insecurity, & narcissism.
From Facebook to Twitter, social media has made us more easily networked than ever. We have the ability to connect with anyone at anytime. Yet with all this connectivity to billions of people, we somehow have never been more lonelier. Eric Klinenberg, a sociologist at New York University, wrote:
“Reams of published research show that it is the quality, not the quantity of social interaction, that best predicts loneliness.”
What we call our “friends”, have become merely a stamp of a face in a book. Overtime, it is as if we are simply collecting stamps or in results, friends. During our interactions on these social networking sites, we have suppressed the real meaning of intimacy within a friendship by exchanging 10 second photos, 6 second videos, & 140 characters. By doing so, we are sacrificing conversation for unfulfilling connection. 3,500 friend requests later, we once claimed to have friends but in fact we are lonely.
Based on Dunbar’s Number theory,
“Dunbar has found 150 to be the sweet spot for hunter-gatherer societies all over the world. From the Bushmen of Southern Africa to Native American tribes, a typical community is about 150 people. Amish & Hutterite communities — even most military companies around the world — seem to follow the same rule.
The reason 150 is the optimal number for a community comes from our primate ancestors, Dunbar says. In smaller groups, primates could work together to solve problems & evade predators. Today, 150 seems to be the number at which our brains just max out on memory.”
Based on further research, to have 3,500 friends is just not mentally & emotionally fulfilling as we think it should be. Which in fact & in the end we are only damaging our psyche.
Jon Negroni, world famous internet blogger wrote:
“Plenty have researched the link between social media sites & depression. A 2012 study found that there is, in fact, a high correlation between depression & use of major social network, Facebook. The study assessed the risk of depression among highschoolers & compared the risk rate to links between depression & TV use, to name one.
Other studies somewhat disagree. Huffington Post discussed a few related findings & found that there seems to be a stronger case that social media doesn’t cause anxiety or depression, it just pushes already at-risk people off the figurative cliff.”
Regardless of what studies are true, social media is respectfully quite a recipe for disaster with the average insecure teenager.
Now imagine this scenario: You post a photo on Instagram & every hour you scroll through the list of people who liked or commented on the photo that you posted. In surprisingly common cases, that hour is actually every 5 minutes.”
“Oh, I got 19 likes…. Oh I got 10 more! Oh… so and so commented!”
Insecure people are always seeking approval for the things they do and social media is an easy way to set fuel to the fire of addiction.
As I stated earlier, conversation in social media was a large factor into this recipe for disaster. So what is the big deal about having a face to face conversation?
You can’t control what happens. However, with social media all of these websites let us control how people view us. Social media lets us present ourselves as the cool kid we all wish to be. With social media we get to edit & that means we get to delete. We get to rewrite our status five times before posting & we get to use blemish fix & Snapchat filters for our photos.
During an interview with John Cacioppo, a professor at the University of Chicago, he talks about the Science of Loneliness, “…now most people use Facebook to leverage face-to-face interactions, but some use it as a substitute. Metaphorically, that’s like eating celery. If you’re hungry, it’s better than nothing, but it doesn’t provide enough nutrition.”
Over time, we become psychologically conditioned; I have to take a picture of my food when I eat, I have to post my baby picture only on Thursday, I have talk about my crush only on Wednesday, and so forth. We increasingly define ourselves in terms of our social media profiles & feel the need to share constantly to feel heard & embraced; “I share, therefore I am.” Now at what point does constantly seeking admiration from others become narcissistic?

Corn rootworm egg hatch in Iowa typically occurs from late May to the middle of June, with an average peak hatching date of June 6 in central Iowa. Development is driven by soil temperature and measured by growing degree days (GDDs). Research suggests about 50% of egg hatch occurs between 684-767 accumulated GDDs (since January 1; base 52°F, soil). Most areas within Iowa have reached peak egg hatch for corn rootworm (Figure 1), and we have heard several reports of folks finding larvae by digging roots in cornfields.
A severe corn rootworm larval infestation can destroy nodes 4-6 (the nodes closest to the soil surface). Root pruning interferes with water and nutrient uptake and makes the plant unstable (Figure 2). Recent research predicts a 15% yield loss for every node pruned back to 1 ½ inches of the stalk. Corn rootworm survival is greater when soil is dry, and dry conditions can increase the yield impact of root pruning.
Regardless of practices used to suppress corn rootworm (e.g., crop rotation, Bt hybrids, or soil-applied insecticides), every corn field should be scouted for corn rootworm root injury to assess whether management tactics worked this spring. Fields in continuous corn production and areas with Bt trait performance issues are the highest priority for inspection. Continue reading for an overview of scouting techniques, or watch this video to dive deeper into corn rootworm scouting and management.
Scouting for larvae
Right now, farmers can assess larval activity in the field a few ways. One method is called the float test. This is when plants and surrounding soil are removed from the field and placed in a bucket of water. After some time, larvae will float on the surface if there are larvae feeding in the field. Be careful to distinguish corn rootworm larvae from other small, white worms or plant roots (Photo 1).
Similar to the float test, farmers can also dig up plants and the surrounding soil and place it on a black garbage bag or other dark surface. Gently sift around the soil and plant roots to find the white larvae. Read more about this method here.
Looking at root injury
Assessing root injury while it is fresh is the best way to know the extent of corn rootworm larval injury in the field. It is ideal to look at corn roots 10-14 days after peak egg hatch, or just after feeding is done (usually when you start to see adults in the area). On some hybrids, corn roots can grow back and make it difficult to assess feeding injury later in the season. Use the ISU 0 to 3 Node Injury Scale to assess injury:
- Look at nodes 4-6 (the three nodes closest to the soil surface). For each node, count the number of roots pruned back to within 1.5 inches of the soil line or stalk and divide by the total number of roots on that node. Add the rating for all three nodes to achieve a final root rating.
- A rating of 0.25 is equal to the economic injury level.
- A rating of 0.50 is considered unacceptable by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for pyramided transgenic hybrids (multiple belowground Bt traits or Bt + RNAi).
A more detailed description of how to assess root injury can be found in this blog article. Assessing root injury or looking for larvae in first year corn fields is the only way to confirm whether a variant population exists in the field (a population of either western or northern corn rootworm that is resistant to crop rotation).
Monitoring adult activity
We recommend looking for larvae and/or assessing root injury to understand the extent of larval feeding in the field but also to assess management tactics used this year. However, we also recommend that farmers use yellow sticky traps to monitor adult activity in the field to make management decisions for the following growing season. The goal is to gain a representative sample of the field and to check traps during peak emergence. Consider multiple transects of traps and begin scouting 3-4 weeks after first adult emergence in the area. Capturing more than 2 beetles/trap/day is the threshold to consider a different management tactic next year (crop rotation or a different larval management tactic if corn will be planted). More information on trapping for adult corn rootworm and where to purchase traps can be found in this blog post or the corn rootworm IPM website. It is usually not economical to apply insecticide for adult control, so sticky trap monitoring should focus on making management decisions for the following growing season.

Rich Nations Truant on Climate Pledges
Analysis is finding that, amid the historic neglect that rich nations show toward the poor, developing countries have received less than 10 percent of the funds promised to them by the developed world. This comes as countries in the global south struggle to respond to the myriad concerns about global warming.
Your support matters…
Developing countries have received less than 10% of the money promised by rich countries to help them adapt to global warming, an analysis by the Guardian has found.
The failure is fostering deep distrust between rich and poor nations and is seriously undermining key negotiations on a global climate deal.
The world’s richest countries have together pledged nearly $18bn (£12.5bn) in the last seven years, but despite world leaders’ rhetoric that the finance is vital, less than $0.9bn has been disbursed and long delays are plaguing many funds.
The lack of action is causing growing concern among diplomats and UN climate talks negotiators who have warned that a global agreement on climate change to succeed the Kyoto treaty is at risk if rich countries do not make the money available.

What a great word! It's defined by Merriam-Wedster's 11th Collegiate Dictionary as "the faculty or phenomenon of finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for".
I had a bit of serendipity today. My wife and I took advantage of beautiful weather during the early part of the afternoon to take bicycles from Northampton to Florence on the bike path, all the way up to Look Park, a privately-owned but open to the public facility which is one of the gems of this area. It's a great park.
As we were riding the paved road around the outer edge of the park, what should we come upon but a show of vintage japanese motorcycles! I had no idea such a thing was happening at Look Park today. and had to stop and check out the old iron.
Fortunately, I had my digital camera with me (well, I very nearly always do -- it's one of the handy things about wearing shirts with four pockets) and was able to snap a few shots of some of the cool bikes. Here are two of them:
I consider the Honda CB750 to be one of the -- if not THE -- most beautiful motorcycles ever produced. And not only is it a gorgeous piece of two-wheeled artistry, it's also a model which changed the face of motorcycling when it was released.
This other Honda is an SL350, the same model I had in high school and college and a few years afterwards. It's even the same color as the one that I had. That SL was a great bike -- I beat the crap out of it and it kept running with very little upkeep. It was my first "grown-up" motorcycle. (And as I was preparing the photograph of the SL350 for this blog post, I noticed that there's a Segway leaning against the tree directly behind it. Cool!)
Actually, the more I look at this photo, the more I think this may be the first model of the SL350, with electric start -- I had the second model with just a kick starter and a different type of frame.
Serendipity... you gotta love it! -- PL

A startup incubator built to help you succeed
From a portfolio manager who knows your business to a mentor who knows your industry and direct access to business customers in your target market, the LaunchLab’s incubation programme gives you the connections you need to start, build and grow your business.
We are privileged to be in the position to work with several student thought leaders from Stellenbosch University as well as students from other universities in South Africa.
This year we are offering the Stellenbosch University Fellowship Programme and a number of other students focused programmes.
Cycle to work, hang up your bike, shower, grab a flat white and a breakfast, work hard all morning, have that meeting over lunch at the cafe, push through the afternoon, get together with friends for a fascinating evening talk about running a startup, meet people who can help you do amazing things.
It all happens at the LaunchLab.
Dozens of LaunchLab-incubated companies got funding in 2017 – from brand new ideas to revenue generating businesses. Yours could be next.
Right now, more than 30 leading investors and funds are in our investor network and are regularly looking at LaunchLab-incubated companies. As part of our incubation programme, we introduce our founders to angel investors, VCs and our corporate partners to help them take their company to the next stage.
Our corporate partners have laid down the innovation challenges in their industries. Take the challenge and pitch your idea to a panel of experts, and even take it to a live audience of other startups and potential investors. Get it right, and a cash prize, support, and LaunchLab incubation are all up for grabs.
Our own Countdown Programme pulls the best from startup service providers together to build a 15 week programme to help startups put all of the structures and controls together to bring on large clients and take on investment.
The LaunchLab Makerspace, sponsored by RS Components, has been created for innovators and entrepreneurs to build prototypes to take to market. Any innovator is welcome and collaboration is encouraged.
*Consumables are not provided e.g. sandpaper, grinder blades, welding rods.

A spectacular meteor shower the likes the world has never seen is forecast for the skies over the Setouchi area of Hiroshima Prefecture in the early summer of 2019.
In a world first experiment, Tokyo-based Ale Co. plans to create artificial shooting stars through new technology by shooting pellets measuring 1 centimeter from a satellite.
Since the speed of the balls will be slower than meteoroids entering the atmosphere, they will be visible from the Earth longer. They may be seen streaking across the sky for five seconds or so in a light-polluted night sky and for more than 10 seconds in a dark sky from the ground in a 100-kilometer radius of the targeted point, according to the company.
The particles emit the most light at an altitude of around 60 km, and burn out completely in the Earth's atmosphere before reaching the ground.
The venture will send aloft a satellite carrying 300 to 400 pellets sometime between the end of 2018 and the beginning of 2019.

Released 07/12/2019 Rated: R
I found the trailer on YouTube a few months back. I started it up going “what in the world is this??” As I watched it I pegged it as terrible; a creature-feature. Typical man vs nature. But halfway through it I thought: I still want to see this. Like, I really wanted to see it.
Crawl is about a young woman who travels back home to search for her father who has been radio silent since a category 5 hurricane made landfall in Florida. She tracks him down under the crawlspace of their old house only to discover something else has taken up residence down there as well.
This movie was done really well. It sets up the situation and takes off. Without disrupting the pace of the film it lets us get to know the characters and their relationships with each other which makes us care when things start happening. There wasn’t much that screamed CGI at me, mainly just one scene that seemed a bit sped-up. It’s not perfect, but for the most part I totally believed that the gators were actually on set. Seeing them in the water…damn they did a fantastic job making this look real!!
Not gonna lie, I totally forgot how vicious these creatures get when they go for a kill. Holy crap! I grew up watching Animal Planet and “The Crocodile Hunter,” so how in the world did I forget this?? Obviously there’s a good amount of gore, but thankfully it’s paced out well enough. Other than the violence the worst thing in this film is one character gets his arm chomped off. Actually, I take that back: there’s a scene involving spiders. That’s the scene I couldn’t handle. LOL!
This movie has an edge-of-your-seat tensity that I loved. The threat felt real and the action intense. You really feel for these characters and want them to make it out alive. My husband might need a breather after this one, but I’d totally visit it again.

Their meeting comes at a time when dozens of large Catholic Church institutions have engaged in class action lawsuits against the government requirement that religious institutions offer insurance including birth control devices the church opposes, even for celibate priests and nuns who would have no use for the devices.
The papal audience comes just months after Catholic Cardinal Raymond Burke, prefect of the Vatican's Apostolic Signatura (Vatican's high court), told Polonia Christiana magazine on January 7 of this year, “It is true that the policies of the President of the United States of America have become progressively more hostile toward Christian civilization. He appears to be a totally secularized man who aggressively promotes anti-life and anti-family policies.”
President Obama and Pope Francis also exchanged small gifts during the meeting, though disagreements were discussed before the meeting with one of the Vatican's cardinals. “I think His Holiness and the Vatican have been clear about their position on a range of issues, some of them I differ with, most I heartily agree with,” Obama noted at a press conference after the meeting. Obama said after his meeting that he only discussed “income inequality,” immigration, and foreign policy with the pope. “And he actually did not touch in detail on the Affordable Care Act. In my meeting with the Secretary of State, Cardinal Parolin, we discussed briefly the issue of making sure that conscience and religious freedom was observed in the context of applying the law. And I explained to him that most religious organizations are entirely exempt.”
But Obama's remarks were materially false, as at least 43 Catholic organizations, including Notre Dame University and the Archdiocese of New York, have filed a lawsuit against the Obama administration seeking the exemption that Obama claims they are already entitled to receive.

COVID restrictions meant a much anticipated farmer workshop investigating soil status had to be held virtually in 2022. Farmers were able to draw on knowledge from experts in soil fertility to understand their soil requirements for the season ahead.
A total of 32 farmers from the high rainfall areas of the Peel-Harvey catchment were selected for subsidised soil sampling which took place over summer. Participants typically graze cattle and are reliant on fertiliser to boost pasture production, which can influence the health of our rivers and estuaries due to nutrient run-off from excess fertiliser application.
The program provided landholders with important soil nutrient analysis on a paddock by paddock basis. A report with easy to read, colour coded maps was provided containing soil status information including soil acidity, environmental risk and soil nutrients essential for healthy pasture. To ensure participants understood their results, an online workshop was provided with experts in soil structure, fertility and acidity. Two workshops were held in March which allowed farmers to ask any questions, as well as individually evaluate their results.
The majority of farmers discovered their soils contained excess amounts of phosphorus, meaning increased application of phosphorus would not improve production. The most common way to improve soils was addressing soil acidity. When pH is lower than 5.5 plants are unable to utilise all the nutrients in the soil, the addition of calcium carbonate (lime) will help to neutralise the soil and improve yield.
There has been an overwhelmingly positive response from participants in the project who will now also have access to an agronomist consultation as part of the project. With the large increase in fertiliser costs this season, money which may have been spent on unneeded phosphorus-based fertiliser can now be allocated to address other limiting nutrients or lime to increase pasture productivity. The reduced application of phosphorus rich fertiliser will also reduce the amount of nutrients leaching into our waterways. This may result in reduced algal blooms and oxygen poor water which can kill our aquatic life.
The program is a collaboration between the Peel-Harvey Catchment Council, Department of Water and Environmental Regulation, and Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development.
For more information about the program or if you are a farmer interested in applying for the next round of soil testing contact Megan LeRoy, Peel-Harvey Catchment Council’s Healthy Farms and Habitats Coordinator on 6369 8800 or firstname.lastname@example.org
This project is a part of the Healthy Estuaries WA program funded through the State Government’s Royalties for Regions.

Sulphur Dioxide Gas is used for Sulphonation in Sugar plants. SO2 will be produced by
Burning Sulphur. The process of SO2 generation is an exothermic reaction and generating
heat energy during production and hence the temperature of produced SO2 is quite high. High
temperature SO2 cannot directly used in the process of Sulphonation and hence produced
SO2 cool down to required temperature by series of coolers. The available heat energy in SO2
gas ultimately goes waste. This waste heat of SO2 gas can be utilized after converting it into
useful energy through a Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) system.
As steam is required for heating in Sulphur Melter station, hence it is proposed to convert the
available waste energy into steam used at Sulphur Melter station.
By installation of waste heat recovery (WHR) system in Sulphur melter station steam
supply from Boiler at station can be deleted and the station will operate by the steam
generated from the Waste energy of SO2 gas.
The WHR System is Based & design on the available heat energy in SO2 gas generated at
Sulphur melter station. The heat energy is used as major heat source for WHR system.
Modification will be done in First stage and second stage coolers to convert these cooler into
computable Economizer and pre heater of WHR system. Electrical heaters are used as start-
up source of energy for WHR system.
Basic Design Data:
The WHR system is designed to recover waste heat from the SO2 gas generating from Film
type Furnace and use the heat for production of Low Pressure steam. The source of heat is
hot SO2 Gas exiting from furnace. These hot gases exchange heat at three stages and
produces steam from the WHR System. The stages of heat exchanges are as under:
Heat recovery unit
Brief process description of each step at WHR system is as under:
Heat Recovery unit:
The proposed heat recovery unit is used for heating of DM water from SO2 gases coming out of Economizer. The duel purpose of the heat recovery unit is heating of Ambient water upto a temp. of 85OC and cool down the SO2 gas passing through it.
Economizer is used for super heating of feed water to Evaporator. Here the hot water coming from heat recovery unit is feed by a feed pump and get super heated upto 145OC before entering to evaporator. Hot SO2 Gases coming from Evaporator is used as heating source at Economizer.
At evaporator Super heated hot water changes its phase from liquid to vapor. Here the entering Super heated water converts in water vapors or low pressure steam. Hot SO2 Gases exiting from So2 furnace is used as source of heat supply for evaporation.Each unit will be designed as per the description of process at the said stage as above. The design parameters for each unit were tabulated in next chapter of basic design data.

This memorandum provides an overview of Human Rights Watch's main concerns with respect to the human rights situation in Uzbekistan, submitted in advance of the EU-Uzbekistan human rights dialogue to be held on June 10, 2009 in Tashkent.
The Uzbek government's human rights record, long marked by repression and abuse, has remained atrocious in the twelve months since the EU last held a human rights dialogue with Uzbekistan. Civil society activists remain the target of constant government intimidation and harassment, and authorities continue to hold more than a dozen human rights defenders, journalists, and other independent civic and political activists on politically motivated grounds. The government persists in its denial of accountability for the massacre of hundreds of mostly unarmed protesters fleeing a demonstration in the city of Andijan in May 2005. It continues to clamp down on media freedoms and suppress religious worship. There continues to be a deeply entrenched culture of impunity for serious human rights violations, including for torture and ill-treatment, which remain rampant. The judiciary lacks independence and the weak parliament does not effectively check executive power. Government-sponsored forced child labor in the cotton sector remains a key human rights concern.
We hope the EU will seize the opportunity of the June 10 human rights dialogue with Uzbekistan to convey its profound concern about the abysmal state of human rights in the country, and urge specific steps to end abuses. In doing so, the EU should be guided by the human rights criteria it has already formulated for Uzbekistan in the various General Affairs and External Relations Council (GAERC) conclusions, making clear that these criteria are still valid and that their fulfillment constitutes a core objective of the EU's engagement with Tashkent-not just in the context of the human rights dialogues, but at all levels and on every occasion. The benchmarks should be articulated publicly, as should the results of the human rights dialogue, so as to ensure full transparency and leave no doubt about the EU's commitment to make the advancement of concrete human rights improvements an integral part of its Uzbekistan policy.
At the conclusion of this overview is a set of recommendations flowing from the concerns highlighted, which we hope to see the EU take up with the Uzbek government during the June 10 human rights dialogue and beyond.
Accountability for the Andijan massacre
The Uzbek government has steadfastly refused to clarify the circumstances surrounding the 2005 massacre by government forces in Andijan, or to hold accountable those responsible for the killings. Instead, it has sought to rewrite history and silence all those who might question its version of the events, launching an intense crackdown in Andijan itself and exerting pressure on all who knew the truth about the events. Several hundred individuals who were convicted and sentenced in closed trials in 2005 and 2006 are believed to remain in prison serving lengthy sentences.
To this date, the Uzbek government continues vigorously to seek out and persecute anyone it deems to have a connection to or information about the Andijan events. This is particularly true for many of the relatives of hundreds of persons who fled to Kyrgyzstan in the immediate aftermath of the massacre and were later resettled in third countries, as well as those who fled but later returned to Andijan. Intense government pressure, taking the form of interrogations, surveillance, ostracism and in at least one case an overt threat to life, has continued to generate new refugees from Andijan, years after the massacre.
In a recent example, on May 26, 2009, within hours of violent incidents, including at least one suicide bombing, that reportedly took place in Andijan that day, police visited at least three homes of family members of individuals either serving sentences for alleged involvement in the May 2005 events or who fled Uzbekistan in the aftermath and have been resettled elsewhere. The government also appears to have shut down or severely restricted mobile phone coverage in the Ferghana Valley in the days that followed the violence, effectively cutting off information flow from and to the area.
Persecution of human rights defenders and repression of civil society activism
In the aftermath of the Andijan massacre, the Uzbek government unleashed a fierce crackdown on civil society unprecedented in its proportions. It imprisoned dozens of human rights defenders, independent journalists, and political activists for speaking out about the Andijan events and calling for accountability for the May 13 killings. The authorities also blocked the activities of local and international nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). Many human rights defenders and other activists have had to flee the country out of fear for their security or that of their loved ones.
As of this writing, the government continues to hold at least thirteen human rights defenders in prison for no reason other than their legitimate human rights work. They are: Solijon Abdurakhmanov, Azam Formonov, Alisher Karamatov, Jamshid Karimov, Norboi Kholjigitov, Abdus

Giancarlo Stanton is another step closer to — and one step away from — history.
The Miami Marlins’ slugging right fielder, the subject of significant trade speculation, was named a finalist for the NL MVP Award Monday night by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America, which votes on the honor. Arizona’s Paul Goldschmidt and Cincinnati’s Joey Votto are the other finalists.
The winner will be announced Nov. 16 at 6 p.m. on MLB Network.
If he wins, Stanton would be the first NL MVP in franchise history. He would also join the Dolphins’ Dan Marino (NFL MVP in 1984) and the Heat’s LeBron James (NBA MVP in 2011-12 and 2012-13) as the only league MVPs for South Florida’s...

Looking for Personalized Health Guidance?
MitoQ Heart features a patented anti-oxidant MitoQ, which is 847 times better than CoQ10 at targeting heart mitochondria. It also contains L-Carnitine, Magnesium and Vitamin D - essential heart health ingredients. MitoQ supports energy and may be suitable for people who have been prescribed statins. Taken regularly, the ingredients in MitoQ Heart can help in the following ways:
- Delivers CoQ10 into the mitochondria, supports endothelial function, supports normal blood pressure, heart rate and cardiovascular protection.
- Is fundamental to the ATP production process and improves cellular energy levels. CoQ10 shuttles electrons back and forth but MitoQ doesn’t do that part of the CoQ10 function. MitoQ is the antioxidant part of the molecule.
- Acts as an antioxidant to protect mitochondrial membranes from free-radical damage.
L-Carnitine: Fundamental to the ATP energy recycling process and helps the body convert fuel to energy by transporting fatty acids across mitochondrial membranes.
Magnesium: Like a spark plug central to the process, Magnesium "turns on" the enzymes that drive the entire metabolic reaction of ATP energy generation.
Vitamin D3: protects the heart via several different mechanisms. It has been shown that normal Vitamin D levels are associated with a healthy cardiovascular system.

Emily was fifteen when she left her Russian orphanage to join our family and her biological younger sisters. (We had adopted them a year-and-a-half earlier.) The Russian social workers informed us that she had behavioral problems and probably even disorders. They told us that she most likely had Reactive Attachment Disorder and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. They said that we shouldn’t take her into our home.

NBA Odds Update: The Best Championship Bets to Make With the Postseason Looming
In this edition of the 2020-21 NBA Championship Odds Update, we’ll look at which teams saw their numberFire title odds move the most over the last six weeks -- that will give us a better snapshot of the landscape of the league. You can read our last update here.
Teams that had strong stretches and are looking like cohesive units will likely see the most upward movement, while those that had it rough could see their odds spiraling.
Now, here's a look at the teams who had the most upward movement in title odds over the month of action.
Current numberFire Championship Probability: 33.7%
Previous numberFire Championship Probability: 21.1%
FanDuel Sportsbook Championship Odds: +650
Though they've certainly had their ups and downs since the All-Star break, the Utah Jazz are (by far) our model's favorite bet to win it all, with their 33.7% likelihood dwarfing the next-closest team -- the Philadelphia 76ers -- by a whopping 18.7 percentage points.
To date, Utah has the league's best net rating at 8.9, 2.6 points better than the next-best team. The Jazz enter today ranking fourth in the Association in offensive efficiency and third on the offensive end. That'll play.
Now, there's a gap the size of the grand canyon between what our model perceives as Utah's chances to win the title and what their betting odds imply. Over at FanDuel Sportsbook, a championship bet on the Jazz is currently listed at +650, which implies a 13.3% probability of occurrence -- again, our algorithm is at 33.7%.
Current numberFire Championship Probability: 8.9%
Previous numberFire Championship Probability: 6.5%
FanDuel Sportsbook Title Odds: +1600
In the last edition of this series, the Phoenix Suns were featured and were priced at 30/1 -- that's essentially been cut in half. That said, our model still sees some value here.
Phoenix has been one of the more consistent teams in the league since the bubble last season, and their net rating of 6.3 ranks behind only the Jazz this season. The Suns are top-seven in both defensive and offensive efficiency, and by all accounts, they look like legitimate title contenders.
At +1600, the Suns have 5.9% implied odds to hoist the Larry O'Brien Trophy when it's all said and done, and that's still a far cry from our model's 8.9% probability. With the Los Angeles Lakers (+460) looking particularly vulnerable in the West, betting on Phoenix is far from the worst idea.
Current numberFire Championship Probability: 15.0%
Previous numberFire Championship Probability: 12.7%
FanDuel Sportsbook Title Odds: +1200
The Philadelphia 76ers have won five in a row and currently possess a one-game lead for home court in the Eastern Conference. Given that the Sixers are 56-11 at home over their last two seasons, getting that advantage would be huge for their title chances.
Philly currently ranks as the second-best defensive team in the league behind only the Lakers. They're no slouch on the offensive end, as their 112.1 rating ranks as slightly above average so far this season.
numberFire's algo gives the 76ers a 15% chance to be crowned champions at the conclusion of the season, which is nearly double that of what is implied by their +1200 odds (7.7%). Like the two teams covered above, there seems to be value in betting on Philadelphia.

What is a tsunami?
A series of large waves that is caused by an underwater earthquake, landslide, or volcanic eruption.
How is it a hazard to humans
It causes major flooding and will drown humans
Most vulnerable regions
The pacific ocean is where tsunamis happen the most.
How is it measured
A tsunami is measured using its intensity, its amplitude, and its magnitude
- December 26, 2004
- A 9.1 underwater earthquake of the coast of Indonesia caused an estimated 1300 Km pond tsunami. The tsunami was at least 50m tall. It caused 10 billion US dollars worth of damage.
North Pacific Coast, Japan
- March 11, 2011
- A 9.0 underwater earthquake caused a tsunami that was traveling at 800Km per hour with 10M high waves that killed over 18,000 people. it caused $235 billion dollars worth of damage.
How to prepare
- Plan an evacuation plan incase of a tsunami
- Make a disaster supplies kit
- Have a tsunami warning system in your home

Laser lithotripsy is a medical procedure for fragmentation of urinary stones with a fiber guided laser pulse of several hundred microseconds long. Using high-speed photography, we present an in-vitro study of bubble dynamics and stone motion induced by Ho:YAG laser lithotripsy. The experiments reveal that detectable stone motion starts only after the bubble collapse, which we relate with the collapse-induced liquid flow. Additionally, we model the bubble formation and dynamics using a set of 2D Rayleigh-Plesset equations with the measured laser pulse profile as an input. The aim is to reduce stone motion through modification of the temporal laser pulse profile, which affects the collapse scenario and consequently the remnant liquid motion.

Road Name History:
The railroad was founded as a land holding company in 1865, later acquiring the Central Pacific Railroad by lease. By 1900 the Southern Pacific Company was a major railroad system incorporating many smaller companies, such as the Texas and New Orleans Railroad and Morgan's Louisiana and Texas Railroad. It extended from New Orleans through Texas to El Paso, across New Mexico and through Tucson, to Los Angeles, through most of California, including San Francisco and Sacramento. Central Pacific lines extended east across Nevada to Ogden, Utah, and reached north through Oregon to Portland. Other subsidiaries eventually included the St. Louis Southwestern Railway (Cotton Belt), the Northwestern Pacific Railroad at 328 miles (528 km), the 1,331 miles (2,142 km) Southern Pacific Railroad of Mexico, and a variety of 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge routes.
In 1929 SP/T&NO operated 13848 route-miles not including Cotton Belt, whose purchase of the Golden State Route circa 1980 nearly doubled its size to 3,085 miles (4,965 km), bringing total SP/SSW mileage to around 13,508 miles (21,739 km).
By the 1980s route mileage had dropped to 10,423 miles (16,774 km), mainly due to the pruning of branch lines. In 1988 the Southern Pacific was taken over by D&RGW parent Rio Grande Industries. The combined railroad kept the Southern Pacific name due to its brand recognition in the railroad industry and with customers of both constituent railroads. Along with the addition of the SPCSL Corporation route from Chicago to St. Louis, the total length of the D&RGW/SP/SSW system was 15,959 miles (25,684 km).
By 1996 years of financial problems had dropped SP's mileage to 13,715 miles (22,072 km), and it was taken over by the Union Pacific Railroad.

How It Works
When water is heated, its density decreases and volume expands. Because water is not compressible, the extra volume created by expansion needs somewhere to go. During no-flow periods in a system, pressure reducing valves, backflow preventers, and other one-way valves are closed, thus eliminating a path for expanded water to flow back to the system supply. That is when system pressure increases, causing a number of undesirable and potentially dangerous problems.
The Difference Between Water Containment & Water Relief Solutions
Water Containment solutions allow for thermal expansion while containing thermally expanded water in the plumbing system. Our full line of thermal expansion tanks are considered water containment devices, requiring no installation of discharge lines or drains.
Water Relief solutions discharge thermally expanded water at a pressure setting that is below the setting of the water heater's temperature and pressure relief valve. We offer variety of water relief solutions that can be installed on the system piping, in a water closet, or on an outside faucet. These products must be piped to a suitable drain or discharge location.
Diaphragm Expansion Tanks
When the water volume increases with nowhere to go, an expansion tank allows excess water to enter the pre-pressurized tank. As the temperature and pressure reaches its maximum, the diaphragm flexes against an air cushion to allow for increased water expansion, because unlike water, air is compressible. When the system is opened again or the water cools, water leaves the tank and returns to the system.
Control Thermal Expansion in Potable Water Heating Systems
Our potable water expansion tanks are designed to absorb the increased volume of water created by thermal expansion and maintain a balanced pressure throughout the potable water supply system. They are used to prevent plumbing system and/or water heater damage as well as unnecessary relief valve discharge caused by excessive pressure from thermal expansion.
Other Potable Water Thermal Expansion Solutions
We offer several alternatives for pressure relief. While unlike an expansion tank such products do not prevent against loss of water, they do limit high pressure and prevent issues associated with thermal expansion.
- The 530C calibrated pressure relief valve
- The LFBRVM1 combination ball valve and relief valve
Control Thermal Expansion in Non-Potable Water Heating Systems
Our non-potable water expansion tanks are designed to absorb the increased volume of water caused by thermal expansion and maintain a balanced pressure throughout the a water heating system. They are used to prevent system damage and unnecessary relief valve discharge caused by excessive pressure from thermal expansion.
Plumbing Code Requirements
Both the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC) require thermal expansion control to be addressed in plumbing systems. A temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve is not considered a thermal expansion device. This is because when water is allowed to continuously drip from the T&P relief valve, minerals from the water can build up on the valve, eventually blocking it. This blockage can render the T&P valve useless and potentially lead to hot water heater explosions.

Review: Robin Red – Robin Red – Frontiers Music – Release: Out Now.
Don’t get fooled by the name Robin Red. I immediately saw a red haired female singer in a tight jumpsuit before my eyes. Boy was I wrong.. (hahaha) Robin Red is also known as Robin Ericsson, who is the singer for Swedish melodic rock band Degreed. The band Degreed caught my ears when I first heard ‘Black Cat’ in 2013. I’m a fan since then and saw the band live once in Belgium in 2017 in a package with H.e.a.t. and Black Diamond. I was fond of the twists the band threw in their melodic rock. Robin was thinking about a solo album for many years and sent his demos to Frontiers Music. That resulted very quickly in an album deal. I was curious if he went on a different path….
Robin Red are:
Robin Red – lead vocals, backing vocals & bass
Dave Dalone – guitars, synthesizers, backing vocals and percussion
Mats Eriksson – drums
Erik Modin – percussion
Joan Eriksson – grand piano, background vocals
Jona Tee – organ
Petra Eriksson – background vocals
The opener ‘Don’t Leave Me’ immediately blew me away with it’s fresh sound that brings the golden times for melodic rock in mind. His warm voice is pure ear candy and the guitars from Dave Dalone (H.e.a.t.) are simply irresistible. Even Jona Tee (H.e.a.t.) is audible with subtle organ sounds. The melodic solo from Dave tops it off. And what about that calm sensitive break! Wow, all I can say is gimme more..
‘Bad Habit’ starts with a uber catchy riff and Robin sounds a bit rougher here and that fits the lyrics perfectly. The production sounds warm, full and all instruments get a part in the sounds. The end of the solo even brings the mighty Thin Lizzy in mind! Check out the percussion parts following that solo. It’s that kinda details in the song that triggers my interest.
‘Everlyn’ is granted with a guitar riff that sticks in your head and the chorus is slightly commercial with it’s harmony and background vocals. These first three songs are nearly perfect if you ask me. The piano together with keyboards (also organ) and again that guitar riff are the points of attention in the more mellow ‘Freedom’. But ‘Midnight Train’ is my favourite track, again due to that addictive riff from Dave and that uplifting chorus. ‘Can’t Get Enough’ has a more rocking structure and Robin goes to the higher regions here. We get a beautiful ballad with acoustic guitar and the voice from Robin with ‘Reason To Survive’. If I’m not mistaken I hear some snapping of fingers as well. Simply wonderful!
The sound of the songs goes back to the earlier days from H.e.a.t and ‘Nitelife’ could have been on one of those albums. The relaxed middle section is pure heaven for lovers of the genre. The following ‘Head Over Heels’ with his harmonies and snippets of pop would fit on the ‘Into The Great Unknown’ album from Dave’s band.
Robin shows some attitude in the stomper ‘Livin Dead’, but the blues inspired album closer ‘Living For’ is a real treat. It starts with the guitar from Dave, the voice from Robin and some finger clicks. Later on some percussion (do I hear the tambourine?), addition guitar and organ joins this piece of emotional loaded music. A great way to close an impressive album.
Robin sure surprised me with these dozen songs. The combination of his warm voice and the riffs from Dave Dalone are a match made in melodic rock heaven. All songs immediately sound familiar and lift your mood in a second. The cliché ‘all killer, no filler’ describes this collection best, I think. It would be more than awesome if we could hear those songs on a stage in the nearby future. Robin’s debut will certainly be in the top 3 of my albums of the year list.
Score: 4.85 out of 5
- Don’t Leave Me
- Bad Habit
- Midnight Rain
- Can’t Get Enough
- Reason To Survive
- Heart Of Stone
- Head Over Heels
- Livin Dead
- Living For

A man is suing GW Hospital for alleged wrongful termination after he yelled at a manager because he was denied a day off to observe a religious holiday.
Ibin Qadir-Jackson, a former attendant who worked at the hospital from June 2013 to July 2016, alleges in a one-page complaint filed in the D.C. Superior Court Monday that he was wrongfully terminated after “raising my voice” to protest a shift scheduled on one of two official Muslim holidays. Qadir-Jackson, representing himself, is asking for $70,000 to compensate for lost wages during the 16 months he was unemployed after his termination.
“Other non-Muslim, non-male, non-African American individuals have been treated better than me and were not terminated for ‘raising their voice,’” he said in a discrimination charge to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and Virginia Human Rights Commision.
Qadir-Jackson states in the charge, which was dismissed by the EEOC but attached to the lawsuit, that he was discriminated against on the basis of race, sex, religion and retaliation. He did not return a request for comment.
Qadir-Jackson alleges that he was scheduled to work on July 6, 2016, but later asked for the day off because friends at his mosque wanted him to attend a full-day celebration of Eid-el Fatir – the last day of Ramadan, the Muslim holy month.
A hospital manager declined his request and asked him to report to the medical surgery department. When Jackson arrived for his shift at 7 p.m., the supervisor told him he had been transferred to watch over patients – as a “sitter” – in the emergency room, the EEOC charge states.
Qadir-Jackson said it felt “demeaning” that the hospital refused his request off because his services were needed, only to be told he had to “sit and observe patients.”
“I felt like this was further punishment and retaliation for my religious beliefs,” he said in the charge.
Qadir-Jackson claims he then raised his voice at a staffing specialist in the emergency room, saying that he needed the day off because “today was the day for me to be celebrating Allah” and it was special to him.
“I work really hard, and not be getting the day off and for what?” Qadir-Jackson alleges he asked the specialist. “For this? Anybody can be sitting at the emergency department.”
Qadir-Jackson said in the charge that he typically worked 64 to 80 hours a week at the hospital and received positive performance evaluations.
The specialist told him to calm down and come to her office, where she sent him home because of his “state of mind,” the charge states.
Qadir-Jackson claims the outburst was the first time he had complained about his shift, and he said he apologized to his co-workers for raising his voice. The specialist allegedly took his badge and told him it would be returned after hospital management “figures things out,” according to the EEOC document.
Though Qadir-Jackson was originally scheduled to work July 7 through 10, he later saw on an electronic scheduling portal that he had been suspended. Qadir-Jackson received a call from his manager July 8 alerting him that the hospital was conducting an investigation into his actions and would notify him of the result, the document states.
Qadir-Jackson was also scheduled to work the next week, but he states in the document that he was unable to log in to the portal when he tried to look at his hours on July 10.
The hospital’s human resources manager called Qadir-Jackson the next day to schedule a meeting with him and the department manager to discuss the incident. Qadir-Jackson said the two managers told him that his behavior was “unprofessional and disruptive” and that, because the outburst was the third time he had been written up, he would be fired, the charge states.
Qadir-Jackson alleges that the two prior incidents for which he was written up occurred in 2014 and May 2016. During the first incident, he claims he failed to file a timely inpatient report when a patient sat on the floor in his absence.
During the May incident, Qadir-Jackson alleges that he was written up for leaving a patient alone in a room while he withdrew $20 from an ATM for his co-worker, though he said that the co-worker watched the patient while he was absent.
In an April 18 response to Qadir-Jackson’s discrimination charge, the EEOC determined that they were unable to find evidence of discrimination, according to court documents.
A GW Hospital spokeswoman did not return a request to comment. An initial scheduling conference is set for Oct. 19.

Why is Sustainability Important in Agriculture?
Introduction: The Problem with Modern Agriculture
Modern agriculture is the process of farming that relies on monoculture and the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides. It is often contrasted with traditional agriculture which can be characterized by crop rotation, organic farming techniques, and a reliance on animal manures.
The problem with modern agriculture is that it has become too reliant on chemical fertilizers and pesticides. This has led to several problems including soil depletion, water pollution, increased pesticide resistance in pests, increased likelihood of food-borne illness outbreaks from contaminated produce, and so on.
What is Sustainability?
Sustainability is the ability to maintain a balance between the natural environment and human society.
It is a way of life that allows people to live without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs.
Why is sustainable farming important?
We are living in an era where the population is growing, and the climate is changing. It's time we start thinking about sustainability now.
The world's population has grown from 3 billion to 7 billion people in the last 50 years, and it’s predicted that by 2050, there will be 9 billion people on Earth. This means more food will have to be produced to feed everyone, and it also means more natural resources will be consumed.
In addition to this, global warming is leading to unpredictable weather patterns which can cause crop failures and droughts.
The question of how to feed a growing population without destroying the environment has been debated for decades. One answer is sustainable agriculture, which incorporates three principles:
- use of natural resources for production
- use of renewable resources
- conservation of natural resources by minimizing waste and pollution
Replacing Modern Agriculture with Sustainable Farming Practices Today
We need to make a change in the way we produce our food. We need to move away from modern agriculture and start using sustainable farming practices today.
Organic farming practices can help with this issue because they do not use pesticides or chemical fertilizers which can contribute to climate change.
The organic movement began when research showed that the use of artificial chemicals in agriculture was causing serious environmental problems. Silent Spring, a book by marine biologist Rachel Carlson, documented the harmful effects of pesticides on environment. Organic foods are now grown without the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, growth hormones, or antibiotics. Organic farming also promotes and enhances biodiversity, facilitates carbon sequestration, use of renewable resources and organic matter, provides environmental control using livestock and other non-polluting pest control methods such as encouraging beneficial insects.
The key principles of organic farming are- Farmers should grow plants in ways that will ensure a healthy soil, plant, and animal life, and maintain an ecological balance on the farm. Farmers should not use any inorganic fertilizer or pesticide. They must also raise the animals without using any antibiotics or hormones.
Hence, if we want to protect our environment and keep it intact for our children, then it’s time we switch to gentle and sustainable agricultural practices.

US 4367971 A
There is disclosed in the present application, a retainer for sockets especially useful in connection with socket wrenches and accessories. The retainer, which is added to a male member includes a spring-pressed lever which is depressed as the mating female member or socket is introduced over the lever and then locks into the interior of the socket with a self-energizing form of engagement to resist withdrawal until the spring pressure is overcome to release the lock.
1. A joint for coupling two members comprising a female member formed with a polygonal cavity, a stud having a cross-section complementary to that of the cavity, means defining a longitudinal recess in the stud, a locking lever fitted to the recess, the lever having a forward end pivoted on an abutment in the recess and an intermediate pawl enggaging the cavity at a point rearwardly from the abutment and a resilient means urging the pawl into engagement with the cavity.
2. A joint according to claim 1 further characterized in that the recess is formed with a closed end defining the abutment upon which the lever is pivoted.
3. A joint according to claim 1 further comprising means for retaining the lever in the recess with freedom to pivot about its forward end.
4. A joint according to claim 3 further characterized in that the lever retaining means includes and arcuate slot in the lever and a fixed pin passing loosely through the slot.
5. A joint according to claim 1 further comprising an operating arm on the lever extending rearwardly away from the pawl.
6. A joint according to claim 5 further comprising a plunger formed with a cam surface engaging the operating arm of the lever.
7. A joint according to claim 6 further characterized in that the resilient means is a spring interposed between the plunger and the lever and urging the pawl outwardly into engagement with the cavity and the plunger rearwardly away from the point of engagement of the pawl with the cavity and maintaining the operating arm in engagement with the cam surface.
The present invention relates generally to improvements in joints including retainers or locks for sockets and other female accessories to be retained on the ends of male members, particularly in socket wrenches and the like. The invention relates, in a broader sense, to a lock which is usable with unmodified female parts and provides a self-energizing resistance to separation of the mating parts.
Although, joints according to the present invention may include portions of various male accessories and the female members may include either the female ends of nut-engaging sockets or those of accessories such as extensions, in the interest of simplicity and clarity, male and female members of joints will hereinafter be referred to as studs and sockets respectively.
Conventional quick-release retaining joints for socket wrenches have not been entirely satisfactory for two main reasons, either requiring modified sockets or providing insufficient retention when used with worn sockets. The type of joint including a spherical detent and a socket modified by undercutting to receive the detent is burdensome to use in a typical shop where the sockets are diverse, of various vintages and from different manufacturers. On the other hand, conventional quick-release spherical detents used with unmodified sockets are also objectionable in case of socket wear or of heavy accessories. In such cases, the socket often tends to separate from the stud, thereby causing appreciable delays and frustrations in performing the task at hand.
It is accordingly an object of the present invention to provide a simple and secure joint useful for socket type wrenches but which may also be useful in various analogous environments.
Another object is a joint which is usable with unmodified sockets even after the sockets have become worn.
Still another object is a joint adapted to resist forces tending to cause separation of the socket from the stud, such as a heavy accessory depending from the socket.
In the achievement of the foregoing objects, a feature of the invention relates to a locking lever retained in a slot in the stud and urged toward a position of locking engagement with the socket. The lever, according to a related feature is formed and positioned in such a way that, once it engages the interior of a socket, any tendency of the socket to separate from the stud is resisted by tighter engagement. For this purpose, the lever is formed to pivot at its forwared end at an abutment and to tilt outwardly about the pivot into tight engagement with the body of the mating socket.
The foregoing objects and features will be more fully understood and appreciated from the following detailed description of an illustrative embodiiment, presented by way of example, in connection with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a view, partly in longitudinal section of a stud including a locking device according to the present invention and a mating socket, the parts being shown prior to engagement;
FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. 1 but with the stud shown engaging the socket;
FIG. 3 is a plan view of the

A trapezoid table leg is a leg that is angled so that it appears to be a trapezoid. This is a very popular style of table leg, and it can be very easy to make your own. With a few tools and some basic knowledge of metalworking, you can make a set of trapezoid table legs in no time at all.
The first step is to cut the metal to the correct size. You will need four pieces of metal, each measuring 24 inches long and 6 inches wide. Once you have the metal cut to size, you will need to use a metal saw to cut the metal into a trapezoid shape. To do this, simply cut two of the pieces of metal at a 45 degree angle, and then cut the other two pieces of metal at a 30 degree angle.
Next, you will need to drill holes in the metal for the bolts that will hold the legs together. Drill four holes, one in each corner of the metal. These holes should be big enough to accommodate the bolts that you will be using.
Once the holes are drilled, you will need to bolt the legs together. Place the legs so that the 45 degree angles are pointing inwards, and then bolt the legs together using the holes that you have drilled.
Now that the legs are bolted together, you will need to attach them to the table. To do this, simply drill four holes in the table, one in each corner. These holes should be big enough to accommodate the bolts that you will be using. Once the holes are drilled, bolt the legs to the table using the same bolts that you used to bolt the legs together.
And that's it! You now have a set of trapezoid table legs that you can use to add a unique touch to your home.

To provide information about the neighbor hoods in which adopted children live, this section reports on whether or not adopted children live in or near urban areas, as well as on whether the children’s neighborhoods are safe, have characteristics indicating poor physical condition, and have amenities. See Appendix Table 6 on page 63 for detailed data on each indicator.14%
Overall, 76 percent of adopted children live in or near urban areas, 79 percent live in safe neighbor hoods, and 75 percent live in neighborhoods with no characteristics of poor physical condition. Poor physical neighborhood conditions include litter or garbage, poorly kept or dilapidated housing, and vandalism. Very few (4 percent) live in neighborhoods with no amenities. Neighborhood amenities include sidewalks or walking paths; parks or playground areas; recreation centers, community centers, or boys’ or girls’ clubs; and libraries or bookmobiles. Adopted children are slightly more likely than children in the general population to live in safe neighborhoods and in neighborhoods that show no poor physical conditions.i Adopted children and children in the general population are equally likely to live in or near urban areas; see Figure 14.
Internationally adopted children are slightly less likely than other adopted children to live in neighborhoods with no amenities, although living in such neighborhoods is very rare among all adopted children (4 percent). The likelihood of living in a safe neighborhood or a neighbor hood with no characteristics of poor physical condition does not vary by adoption type, nor does the percentage living in or near urban areas.
Figure 14. Percentage of children living in neighborhoods with various characteristics, by adoptive status
MEASURES PERTAINING TO NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS
Urban areas: To determine whether children live in or near an urban area, we identified whether the child’s county was part of a Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). MSAs include counties containing an urban area with a population of at least 50,000, as well as adjacent counties that are socially and economically integrated with the urban core. 22 MSA status in the NSCH was suppressed for children living in states with either fewer than 500,000 persons living in MSAs or fewer than 500,000 persons not living in MSAs. Among these children, we assumed that children living in primarily urban states were living in MSAs and that children living in other states were not living in MSAs.
Safe neighborhoods: To assess whether children live in safe neighborhoods, the survey asked parents five questions about their perceptions of their neighborhood. Specifically, parents reported their level of agreement with four statements: 1) “People in this neighborhood help each other out.” 2) “We watch out for each other’s children in this neighborhood.” 3) “There are people I can count on in this neighborhood.” 4) “If my child were outside playing and got hurt or scared, there are adults nearby who I trust to help my child.” Additionally, they reported how frequently they feel their child is “safe in [their] community or neighborhood.” Negative responses to any of the questions (i.e., response of “somewhat” or “definitely disagree” to any of the first four questions, or responses of “never” or “sometimes” to the fifth question) were categorized as not living in safe neighborhoods.
Neighborhoods in poor physical condition: Children were categorized as living in neighborhoods with poor physical conditions if their parents reported that their neighborhood had “litter or garbage on the street or sidewalk”, was “poorly kept or had rundown housing,” or had “vandalism such as broken windows or graffiti.”
Neighborhoods with no amenities: To identify whether children’s neighborhoods had any amenities, parents were asked if “the following places and things are available to children in your neighborhood, even if [their child] does not actually use them:” 1) “sidewalks or walking paths,” 2) “a park or playground area,” 3) “A recreation center, community center, or boys’ or girls’ club,” or 4) “a library or bookmobile.”

Title : The Influence of Attitudes, Beliefs, and Socioeconomic Status on Caregivers' Decision-Making about OTC Medications Cough and Cold Medications in Preschool Children,

Abstract : The use of over-the-counter (OTC) medication is an essential part of health care in the United States. Kogan, Pappas, Yu, and Kotelchuck (1994) reported that nearly $2 billion per year is spent on cold remedies alone, and an estimated 70% of illnesses are treated with OTC medications. The use of OTC medications for children is a particularly important topic as early research found that OTC medications may be used in lieu of obtaining medical care (Maiman, Becker, Cummings, Drachnian, & O'Connor, 1982). Kogan et al. (1994) reported that in a 30 day period 53.7% of all 3 year old children were given some type of OTC medications. When the types of medications received by the children were studied, it was found that Tylenol was given 66.7% of the time, cough and cold medications (CCM) 66.7%, and other pain relievers 6.9%. The reported percentages are greater than 100% because many children received two or more OTC medications in the 30 day period (Kogan et al., 1994). Factors affecting the mother's or caretaker's decision to medicate a child can include attitudes and beliefs regarding children's health, sociodemographic characteristics, and the effectiveness of the medications (Maiman, Becker, & Katlic, 1986). Kogan et al. (1994) and Maiman et al. (1986) found that the use of OTC medication in children is directly related to the educational level and socioeconomic status (SES) of the mother. The researchers concluded that the higher the SES and educational level of the mother the more OTC medications the children were likely to receive.

Incumbents Jennie E. Carlton, David E. Eickholt and Kent Schubert are running unopposed for three Chesaning Board of Education spots in the Tuesday, May 6 school elections.
Or are they?
In five of the last six school elections, Chesaning Union Schools has had at least one write-in challenger for a seat.
Schubert, who is the lone candidate for a three-year term, won election to the panel in 2002 as a write-in candidate. Schubert missed the filing deadline that year and considered running the following year, but residents persuaded him to run as a write-in. He went on to receive the most votes.
Last year, Linda S. Shephard joined the Chesaning race after the filing deadline when only two candidates applied for two seats. She lost.
"You never know," said Carlton, a one-term incumbent and current board president. "Toward the end, you could have or two write-in candidates."
Eickholt, who is seeking a third term, is confident he will not face a write-in opponent in the May vote.
"I'm about 90 percent sure," Eickholt chuckled. "It's not a lot of fun to be on the school board."
Candidates in nine school districts are on the ballot in May. Of those nine, only three districts -- Chesaning, Freeland and Swan Valley -- have uncontested races.
In recent years, other school districts have had write-in candidates join the race late.
The deadline for write-in candidates to apply is 4 p.m. Friday, April 25.
Carlton thinks the community is satisfied with the job the board is doing.
"This is the best board we have had in years," Carlton said. "Maybe people feel that we have a good board and are happy with what we have."

Delhi Metro Resumes After 5 months, Strict Screening, Social Distancing
Nation Now TV September 07, 2020
New Delhi: Metro trains have resumed in select cities of the country today, more than five months after they were stopped, with protective measures against the coronavirus. Only asymptomatic people are allowed to board trains and stations at containment zones will stay shut. The passengers have been asked to download the Aarogya Setu app on their smartphones and will undergo thermal checks at stations.
Based on central guidelines, the metro authorities of Delhi, Noida, Chennai, Kochi, Bengaluru, Mumbai Line-1, Jaipur, Hyderabad, Maha Metro (Nagpur), Kolkata, Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh have prepared their standard operating procedures. Maharashtra will not be resuming metro operation this month.
Under the guidelines, the authorities have decided to discourage cash transactions and tokens. The frequency of trains will be regulated to avoid crowding at stations and in trains.
The Delhi metro, which has the most extensive network, starts with its service on the Yellow Line, which runs from Samaypur Badli in North Delhi to the HUDA City Centre in Haryana’s Gurugram, which is adjacent to the national capital. The next five days will see a staggered resumption of service in other lines.
“I am happy that Delhi Metro services resume today. Metro has made good arrangements. We should not be careless in taking precautions,” Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal tweeted in Hindi.

Was born and died in Athens. He was a pupil of Socrates, 408-399 B.C., founded the Academy, 387-6 B.C., visited Sicily three times, and endeavoured without success to influence Dionysius II. ethically and politically.
Plato's moral philosophy is essentially bound up with his philosophy of the universe, although from many of his Dialogues a clear conception of his moral ideal and ethical teaching can be gathered, without development of the metaphysical background. He illustrates in the highest degree that union of the mystical and scientific genius which some have thought essential to the philosopher.
CRITO. Greek Text: C. F. Hermann. Crito, one of Socrates' friends, visits him in prison and endeavours to persuade him to escape, for which object ample resources have been provided by Socrates' friends.
Crito. But, O Socrates, best of friends, even at this hour be persuaded by me and save yourself. For if you should die, not one misfortune alone would befall me, but in addition to my being bereaved of such a friend as I shall never find again, many who do not know us well, will suppose that though I could have saved you, if I had been willing to spend money, I failed to do so. And what more shameful reputation could there be than this, to value money more than one's friends! For most people will not be persuaded that you have refused to escape in spite of our entreaties.
Socrates. But why, dear Crito, does the opinion of the multitude matter so much to us? For the righteous, whom we ought to regard more, will think that these things have happened as they have happened.
Crito. But you see none the less, Socrates, that it is neces-

We're committed to bringing you dependable power with fewer interruptions.
At Cobb EMC, we're focused on delivering reliable service to our members. We have a resilient energy grid, and we’re working every day to improve and maintain our infrastructure to provide perfect power. That means you experience fewer interruptions, and should the power go out, we get the lights back on as quickly as possible.
Most Reliable Power in the Nation
Cobb EMC is ranked #1 nationally for delivering reliable power and restoring outages quickly, according to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers’ 2023 benchmark year study results. Reliability is more than just our job. It’s our purpose.
Learn how we work to ensure a resilient grid, so you have the power you can rely on:
One of the most important things we do to provide reliable electricity is maintaining and updating our infrastructure. Just like we service our vehicles with regular oil changes and inspections, the electric grid must also be maintained. We regularly inspect, improve and monitor 9,000+ miles of line across five counties. This can include changing old poles, building new substations, or replacing aging underground cables.
Our Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system also increases the efficiency of our system upgrades and maintenance by continuously monitoring equipment status and performance and feeding the information back to our Power Control technicians. Cobb EMC was the first cooperative in Georgia and the first co-op of its size in the nation to implement SCADA. This is just one of the many ways we’re working to bring you reliable power.
Our smart grid includes smart meters, a fiber-optic network for fast and secure communications from the field to the office, and one of the most technologically advanced power control systems in the world. Our Power Control technicians provide centralized monitoring of power system operations and weather 24/7, 365 days a year. Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) technology allows our power control team to monitor the electrical system from our campus. When a meter on our system loses power, we’re immediately notified. In many cases, we can diagnose the problem and re-connect service with the flip of a switch.
Cobb EMC also uses a combination of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Outage Management Systems (OMS) to group outages and predict the outage location. Our mobile workforce management system electronically dispatches outage tickets to crews in the field. The wireless integration of these and other electronic systems enables improved response times and customer service.
Our smart grid includes smart meters, a fiber-optic network for fast and secure communications from the field to the office, and a technologically advanced power control system, which has been studied by utilities across the nation and worldwide. This smart technology helps keep your lights on, even when a problem arises.
Smart meters are digital meters that use the latest advanced metering and communications technologies. This allows our power control team to know exactly when a meter on our system loses power. In many cases, we’re able to diagnose the problem and restore power immediately – all from our campus – through automation.
Smart meters transmit hourly meter readings through secure two-way communications back to Cobb EMC, similar to a cell phone network.
Smart meters also allow you to track electricity use by the hour so you can make smart energy decisions. Reading a smart meter is easy. Once you learn the basics, you can easily measure your own electric use by simply checking your meter. Your smart meter uses a digital readout alternating between two different displays:
- The initial screen will display "888888…" indicating that the unit is functioning properly.
- The next screen shows the total kWh of energy use. This 5-digit number is cumulative and may include leading zeros.
Cobb EMC does not reset the meter each month, so you can see how much electricity you have used by simply subtracting the previous month’s reading from the present reading. Your previous month’s reading can be found on your bill statement.
Cobb EMC strives to bring you innovation and continual improvement. We’re implementing and continue to explore new technology – padmounted distribution substations, drones and satellite imagery – so we can deliver the reliable electricity you expect.
Providing reliable power at an affordable price
Our commitment to our members extends beyond providing reliable electric service – we also strive to do so at an affordable price. To do this, we purchase electricity from several different producers at the best rates we can negotiate. To learn more about our rate options, visit our rate selection tool.

The Kidston Pumped Storage Hydro Project (250MW) is located in Northern Queensland on the site of the historical Kidston Gold Mine. The site is located 270km north west of Townsville near the township of Georgetown.
The Kidston Pumped Storage Hydro Project will consist of an upper and lower reservoir, in addition to an adjacent balancing storage pit. The upper storage reservoir will be created using a 'turkey's nest' type dam, constructed on the waste rock dump to the north of Eldridge Pit. The lower storage reservoir for the project will be the existing Eldridge Pit. Additionally, the project will also utilize the existing Wises Pit to act as a balancing storage to hold excess water and to mitigate flood risks.
Given the significant potential water head differential that the pits offer, and the vast quantity of water the pits can hold, the project has been designed to support 1,500MWh of continuous power generation in a single generation cycle (250MW of peaking power generation over a 6 hour period). Power generated will be sold directly into the NEM.
A concrete lined pressure tunnel will connect the upper reservoir to the underground generation powerhouse. A concrete lined tailrace tunnel will, in turn, connect the powerhouse to the lower reservoir. A shaft from the surface will connect the underground infrastructure to a surface power control room, which will be connected to a transformer station located on an existing pit bench.
During peak power demand periods water will be released from the upper to the lower reservoir, passing through reversible pump/generators acting in generation mode. During off peak periods, water will be pumped back from the lower to the upper reservoir with the pump/generators acting in pumping mode. Initial modelling indicates a change in water level of approximately 8m in the upper reservoir and 44m in the lower reservoir during a full generation cycle, with an average water head of approximately 190m over the course of the cycle.
The Kidston Pumped Storage Hydro Project (250MW) is a closed loop system, which will involve the transfer of water from the upper reservoir to the lower reservoir. This will ensure minimal environmental impact during operation, on what is already a disturbed historical mining site.
The Kidston site benefits from extensive existing onsite infrastructure and materials, mitigating the need for significant capital expenditure normally associated with the building of a large scale pumped storage hydro electric generation scheme. This includes:
An upper reservoir (Turkey's Nest)
A lower Reservoir (Eldridge Pit)
A balancing storage (Wises Pit)
Significant volumes of good quality water currently in pit
An onsite power distribution substation
An existing 132 kV transmission line connecting the site to Powerlink's Ross substation near Townsville
The existing 20,600 ML Copperfield Dam located approximately 18km from the site
A water pipeline from the Copperfield Dam directly to the Kidston site
Existing water rights to draw up to 4,650ML of water annually from the Copperfield Dam
Significant quantities of onsite building materials required for the civil construction process
On site accommodation and catering facilities, roads, fencing, diesel storage facilities, electricity and water
The energy market has evolved significantly since the initial inception of the Project. Going forward, it is anticipated that the market will undergo an intense transition period as the generation mix across the National Energy Market (NEM) shifts from traditional fossil fuel generation towards a fast growing proportion of large scale renewable energy generation. There is a critical need for large scale energy storage, at an affordable cost, to balance the penetration of large scale renewable energy generation into the NEM.

The painting by Florentine artist Alessandro Allori “Madonna and Child”. The size of the painting is 131 x 117 cm, canvas, oil. The painting has another name “Allegory of the Christian faith.” The painting was acquired in the collection of the Hermitage from the collection of the Spanish ambassador to Russia Pais de la Codena in 1834. The word Madonna has long been used in Italy mainly as the name of the Blessed Virgin, the Mother of God in prayer to her, and also serves to designate her icons and statues.
In this second, artistic meaning, the word Madonna passed from the Italian language and into other Western European languages. The most ancient images of the Madonna, dating back to the 2nd and 3rd centuries, are known from the wall paintings of the Roman first Christian catacombs, which represents the Madonna or in the form of an orante – a woman with a veil on her head, with arms spread outward and uplifted, or with a baby Christ in her womb, or the form of a young mother sitting and holding a baby on her lap.
With the awakening of attention to nature and to the monuments of classical antiquity, the images of the Madonna are more and more liberated from Byzantine influence and, becoming one of the most favorite tasks of artistic creativity in Italy, are gaining more and more variety, increasingly reflecting the individuality of their performers.
And finally, at the blossoming of the Renaissance, the images of the Madonna reach a high perfection: Madonna is in the pictures of the painters the ideal of feminine beauty and grace, virginity, humility, prayerful tenderness, parental tenderness – a modest mother, completely immersed in the care of her baby Son, then a young virgin, embraced by a sacred ecstasy, then a majestic but gentle queen, mercifully looking at those who resort to her intercession.

Commercial Satellite Imagery Companies Partner with the U.S. Geological Survey in Support of the International Charter “Space and Major Disasters”
For people caught in the throes of natural or technological disasters, rapid and accurate assessments of conditions on the ground are critical to saving lives and protecting property. Making such assessments just got easier. Two American commercial satellite imagery firms — DigitalGlobe and GeoEye — have joined forces with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in support of the global team of space and satellite agencies that constitute the International Charter “Space and Major Disasters”. The International Charter works to provide emergency response satellite data free of charge to those affected by disasters anywhere in the world.
According to Barbara J. Ryan, USGS’ Associate Director for Geography and current Chair of the International Charter, “The Charter has been activated about 125 times since its inception in November 2000, including here in the United States for Hurricane Katrina in 2005.”
DigitalGlobe, headquartered in Longmont, Colorado, and GeoEye, based in Dulles, Virginia, are remote sensing companies renowned for acquiring and delivering high-quality, map-accurate, high-resolution satellite imagery using state-of-the-art Earth-imaging technology. Their participation in the Charter will advance its goal of getting imagery for disaster response into the hands of the people who need it.
The International Charter currently includes as its members the British National Space Center/Disaster Monitoring Constellation (BNSC/DMC), the French Space Agency Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales (CNES), the Argentine Space Agency Comision Nacional de Actividades Espaciales (CONAE), the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), the European Space Agency (ESA), the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the USGS. Each member agency has committed resources to support the provisions of the Charter and, in so doing, is helping to mitigate the effects of disasters worldwide. These resources include imagery collected by a variety of civilian and commercial satellites.
Many of these satellites capture images at relatively moderate resolutions, making them useful for large-area applications. Precise, smaller-scale analysis of a disaster’s impact, such as assessing damage to buildings and infrastructure following an earthquake, requires a more detailed view. GeoEye and DigitalGlobe own and operate Earth-imaging satellites that acquire very high-resolution images. DigitalGlobe’s QUICKBIRD and GeoEye’s IKONOS satellites, for example, capture panchromatic images with a resolution of one meter or less. While there is normally a cost associated with obtaining high-resolution commercial satellite scenes, the two companies will donate some archived imagery and also provide newly tasked imagery at a reduced cost to USGS and the International Charter. First responders and end users of the Charter’s system will then have access to these data.
Bill Wilt, GeoEye’s Vice President for North American Sales said, “Archived, as well as newly collected imagery, can go a long way in helping people better understand the impact of a disaster on the ground. The International Charter has a great track record in this regard.”
This alliance of U.S. commercial satellite imagery providers and the member agencies of the International Charter represents a unique collaboration between governments and industry in the area of space imaging. The USGS will act as the interface between GeoEye and DigitalGlobe and International Charter operations. “This is a wonderful example of a public-private partnership,” said Ryan, “that benefits thousands, if not tens of thousands, of people worldwide.”

Grid Net, the smart meter software startup that’s betting the smart grid will be built around the wireless standard WiMAX, has scored a major hiring coup. This morning the four-year-old firm, led by former Cisco (s CSCO) and Silver Spring Network executive Ray Bell, announced that Austin Energy’s well-known Chief Information Officer Andres Carvallo will join Grid Net as its Chief Strategy Officer.
Carvallo is known for helping Austin Energy deploy one of the first smart grid networks in the U.S., and says he originally coined the term “smart grid” back in April 2007. Before he joined Austin Energy to lead its smart grid efforts he was an exec at a variety of start-ups and larger tech firms including Philips Electronics (s PHG), Digital Equipment Corporation, and Borland and Carvallo started his career as a product manager for Microsoft (s MSFT). So returning to the world of Silicon Valley and technology isn’t such a stretch.
Carvallo’s addition to Grid Net packs a lot of punch. While Grid Net has been making strides as of late, the startup still has a limited number of utility customers and deployments. Grid Net officially launched itself just last October, unveiling its software product and announcing Australian utility customer SP AusNet, as well as a whole host of partners including GE (s GE), Motorola (s MOTO), Cisco, Intel (s INTC), and WiMAX service provider Clearwire (s CLWR). Grid Net has also been reported to be working on pilots with American utilities American Electric Power, and Consumers Energy.
Carvallo’s addition to the startup, more than anything, will help Grid Net convince utility customers that the wireless standard WiMAX could be a good option for their smart grid networks. Carvallo tells us in a phone interview (full Q&A here) that he will be focused on educating his utility peers on Grid Net and WiMAX. For those of you not familiar with WiMAX, it’s a high-speed wireless technology that service providers are using for the next generation of broadband services. It competes with a high-speed wireless technology being deployed by cell phone companies called Long Term Evolution, or LTE. But for the smart grid, WiMAX can offer utilities a lot of bandwidth and could also ultimately be really cheap because it’s an open standard with a growing ecosystem of large manufacturing partners like GE, Motorola and Intel.
Interest in a WiMAX-enabled smart grid has been gaining over the past couple of months. Earlier this month Arcadian Networks, a startup that owns licensed 700-megahertz spectrum across a swath of the American heartland and is selling smart grid services to utilities, told us it had recently started selling a WiMAX-enabled gateway device. Sprint (s S) wants utilities to eventually use the WiMAX network it’s building in partnership with Clearwire for smart grid applications. Utilities like Texas’s CenterPoint Energy, New England’s National Grid and San Diego Gas & Electric have been testing and looking into deploying WiMAX smart grid networks.
It still remains to be seen to what extent utilities will embrace WiMAX for the smart grid. Carvallo told us in an interview that Grid Net will be looking to roll out other services based on broadband technology like possibly broadband over powerlines and fiber. But given WiMAX is Grid Net’s first (and only for now) offering, Grid Net execs, including Carvallo, are placing a lot of their chips on the WiMAX smart grid bet.

A youth group from Cambodia alongside Good Neighbours Cambodia (GNC), recently revealed the results of a survey they conducted on children’s exposure to drugs in communities. Volunteers from the group interviewed 283 children aged from 13 to 18 in Phnom Penh and the provinces of Banteay Meanchey, Battambang, Kratie and Mondulkiri.
The results of the survey found that 92 percent of respondents said they are aware of issues surrounding drugs, and 80 percent said they have seen drug use and trafficking in the communities they live in. Meanwhile, the survey also found that 72 percent of the children said they are afraid of being introduced, persuaded or forced to use drugs by offenders.
“Drugs are a major obstacle to the development of communities, children and youths. Intervention from the government, police and teachers is most necessary,” Rin Norngkea, head of the volunteer youth group was quoted as saying. She was speaking at a forum organised by GNC and which was attended by representatives of ministries and more than 200 people.

‘Nanodrops,’ a revolutionary eye drop developed by a team at Shaare Zedek Medical Center and @Bar-Ilan University’s Institute of Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials has been shown to improve both short-sightedness and long-sightedness in tests on pigs.
This past week, at Shaare Zedek’s Second Annual Research Conference, Dr. David Smadja, Head of our Ophthalmology Research Unit, shared that the team plans to begin clinical testing later this year and if the drops are found to improve human vision the nanoparticle solution could eliminate the need for eyeglasses.
Dr. Smadja explains that the new concept could revolutionize ophthalmological and optometry treatment of patients with myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) and other refractory conditions. Prospective patients would use a smartphone app to scan their eyes, measure their refraction, create a laser pattern, and then apply a “laser corneal stamping” of an optical pattern onto the corneal surface of their eyes.

A series of experiments was carried out in order to determine the elemental concentration of a sample doped with Cr3+, and to elucidate the nature of the energy transfer process between the Cr3+ and Nd3+ ions in lanthanum lutetium gallium garnets. Elemental concentrations were determined using the instrumental neutron activation and X-ray fluorescence techniques. Nature of the energy transfer was studied by obtaining the spectral data on the single doped samples with Cr3+ and Nd3+, and on the double doped sample with both ions. These data include absorption, luminescence, excitation spectra and pulsed excitation. The Cr --> Nd transfer efficiency, eta, was quantitatively determined to be 0.59 at room temperature.

Most known products that are produced during micropollutant ozonation are unknown, and it is unknown to what extent these compounds can be removed by subsequent adsorption to activated carbon. Based on the adsorption of the labeled carbon, 14 C-labeled micropolutants were ozonated to produce 14 C-labeled OTPs, for which the adsorption of the sum of all 14 C-labeled OTPs to activated carbon could be determined. Bisphenol A, sulfamethoxazole, and sulfadiazine were both identified in the formation of 14 CO 2 by an aromatic ring cleavage. Following ozonation, which was related to a decreased adsorption of dissolved organic matter, increased adsorption of micropollutants to powdered activated carbon, according to the adsorption of dissolved organic matter in adsorption. These results show that adsorption to activated carbon alone is not a viable removal method for a wide variety of ozonation transformation products.

Traditional fertilization management can jeopardize soil stability and result in significant soil erosion. Crop straw returning to the field reduces the negative effects of straw burning and improves soil quality, improving soil quality. Organic carbon, microbial biomass carbon, particulate organic carbon, and easily oxidized organic carbon concentrations by 79. 32 percent, 92. 46 percent, and 104. 32 percent relative to CK, increased the dissolved organic carbon, microbial biomass carbon, particulate organic carbon, and readily oxidized organic carbon concentrations by 79. 32 percent, 82. 36 percent, 96. 32 percent, 96. 32 percent, 104. 32 percent, According to soil microbial community diversity and richness, as well as improved microbial activity, which is also helpful in soil erosion degradation, which is beneficial in soil degradation. Following straw returning, we discovered that soil fungi were more sensitive than bacteria to shifts in soil carbon composition and enzyme activity.

IN THE HOUSE ~ Bill C-9- Budget Implementation Bill
April 22nd, 2010 - 4:00am
40th Parliament, 3rd Session
Context : Motions\Questions and Comments
Mr. Peter Julian (Burnaby—New Westminster, NDP): Mr. Speaker, we in the NDP have subtitled this bill the everything but the kitchen sink bill. They have thrown in virtually everything that the Conservatives wanted to get through on their agenda.
There is also an element that expands the hated HST. I do not need to explain how people in British Columbia are reacting to this appalling abuse, both by the federal Conservatives and provincial B.C. Liberals, to expand the HST, to throw in all of these elements that penalize ordinary families in British Columbia, on average $2,500 per family.
As we know, British Columbians are reacting in an unprecedented way. Over 80% support signing a petition that will force a referendum on this.
My question to the member is very simple. We have a completely inappropriate use of government legislation. The government is throwing in a whole bunch of elements that Canadians reject in the guise of a budget bill. Thankfully the member is bringing forward a motion to split the bill, which is what the government should have done in the first place. The government really should be looking at splitting it in more than one way.
Could the member comment on the appropriateness of expanding the HST when nobody in British Columbia wants it?
Context : Questions and Comments
Mr. Peter Julian (Burnaby—New Westminster, NDP): Madam Speaker, the member for Elmwood—Transcona has pointed out the incoherence of the Conservatives bringing this bill forward when there has only been one problem.
The problem was judicial oversight. The judge was simply not convinced that the minister had done his due diligence. That is it.
We are wasting time in this House of Commons, chewing up debate time because the Conservatives who are so thin-skinned have reacted to one case where a judge did his job and the minister did not. That is why we are here.
I wanted to ask the member about the incoherence of the Conservatives. We have had Conservative members call the police a cult because the police disagree with them. We have had them repeatedly refuse to have the public safety officer compensation fund brought in so that the families of firefighters and police officers who lose their lives are taken care of. The Conservatives give the back of their hands to the firefighters and police officers. We have seen the Conservatives come up and kiss the goons and thugs of the Colombian regime, and try to push this through.
It is rampant hypocrisy. What these Conservatives say they want to do on crime and what they actually do is two completely different things. It is incoherence. It is hypocrisy.
Could the member comment on the absolute hypocrisy of Conservatives on criminal justice matters?

The Direct Bank of Industrial Bank Planned to Launch Innovative Trust and Aggregate Wealth Management Products
Time: August 19, 2015 Source: 21st Century Business Herald
The direct bank has witnessed fast development in China since 2014. Now, there are over 30 direct bank institutions represented by Industrial Bank (IB) and China Mingsheng Bank (CMBC). Nonetheless, direct bank institutions also generally face the challenges of homogenized products, limited simple functions, unsatisfactory account opening experience, etc.“It is the core work of IB’s electronic banking to develop internet finance by taking direct bank as the breakthrough point,” said Yang Zhong, General Manager of the Electronic Banking Department of IB in the interview with the reporter of the 21st Century Business Herald recently.
Real-time opening of weak real-name account online
The needs of customers for direct bank are mainly concentrated in the following three aspects: first, product appeal; second, convenience in operation; and third, security.
“Good product, entrance and experience”, Yang summed up the three “footholds” of IB Direct Bank in this way.
Yang indicated that IB Direct Bank was not simply the updated version of other electronic banking channels like mobile banking. The service of mobile banking was only available to the customers of IB, but the service of direct bank was offered to all bank card holders. In the initial preparation period, IB had specified the service model of “direct bank”, namely online direct sale via internet. In terms of product selection, the main products are highly mature wealth management, fund and fixed deposit via internet banking. In the aspect of customer source extension, real-name verification regarding accounts of cardholders of other banks is done via strategic cooperation with third-party payment companies. Yang said: “It was initiated by IB to open weak real-name accounts online on the real-time basis. Now, it is achieved by only a limited number of banks.” It is learnt that most banks require uploading photo ID for examination to open accounts.
Based on cooperation with third-party payment companies, IB Direct Bank can support one-key purchase of customers with cards of 12 banks, such as ICBC, ABC, BOC and CCB, free of registration and logon. Simplifying the account-opening formalities for customers based on third-party verification of password and identity, it can open IB weak real-name accounts for customers with cards of other banks, thus building a channel for them to purchase wealth management products sold by IB online.Of course, there are now some common problems in the whole industry. For instance, upon the first time of purchasing wealth management products from a bank, signing in person is required at the banking outlet concerned; technologically, direct bank has been opened to customers of other banks, but some restrictions can unavoidably be imposed on the capital outflow due to competition among banks. “Now, our direct bank employs the UnionPay payment channel now, and we are considering adding other payment channels, such as the super internet banking of and modern payment system of the PBC.” Yang said, “In the future, we will achieve the function that all bank cards can be used to purchase wealth management products on a real time basis, improving the customer experience constantly.”
Exploring P2P and other innovative products
In terms of product innovation, now IB Direct Bank mainly offers the products of wealth management, fund and fixed deposit, consisting of 7 types in total, namely “Industrial Treasure (Xingyebao)”, Business Boom (Xingyehong), Cash Treasure, “Zhiyingbao”, wealth management, fixed deposit, and fund, of which the wealth management products of Cash Treasure are the most popular ones.
“On the precondition of meeting the customer need of capital security and regulatory requirements, we will launch more financial products suitable to the characteristics of direct bank, such as innovative trust, collective wealth management and assets management products, and precious metal products.” All of these products, Yang said will come from inside IB Group. The third-party wealth management platform is not taken into consideration temporarily, nor would the Bank pursue after a broad coverage of all product families blindly. It will only offer competitive characteristic products.
For direct bank institutions in the banking system, a great challenge is product homogenization. For this reason, IB has always been making active exploration and attempts. Considering policies, now only CMB has launched a product similar to P2P in the whole banking industry and all other banks haven't launched any officially. Nonetheless, banks including IB, SPDB and CMBC all have expressed their intentions to try P2P.
As disclosed by Yang, IB is now considering creating a product by taking the urban construction investment bond as the basic assets, and taking into consideration to launch businesses of P2P nature such as Business Bill and Business Loan.
For P2P, he indicated, IB wouldn't establish a P2P platform itself, but would rather plan to look for cooperation in direct bank with outstanding P2P

Providing access to all areas in a church can be a challenge, especially when there are old staircases, small steps and a floorplan that is difficult to change.
Our lifts are compact and space efficient, which makes it possible to install them almost anywhere. Minimalist Scandinavian design makes them unobtrusive, with the least possible impact on sight lines. They can also be customized to integrate with the overall design of the space, with three different models and hundreds of combinations of glass types, colors and floorings.
Artico lifts also make a minimal impact on the structure and design of a church, since they do not require a separate engine room or shaft. This makes our lifts perfect for a new build or a retrofit to meet new accessibility requirements. It also explains why they generally cost 70 percent less to install than a conventional lift.
Our proven screw-and-nut drive offers reassuring smoothness and reliability. All of our lifts are equipped with our SmartSafety system with features that anticipate situations and prevent accidents.

Title : Preparation and bio-medical application of highly photoluminescent carbon nanodots derived from carbonized bamboo
In the quest to develop carbon nanomaterials, carbon nanodots (CND) are attracting considerable interest for use in nanoscale material, with applications ranging from high-performance electrochemistry to biomaterials. In this study, we will used carbonized bamboo through thermal dissociation followed by aqueous extraction to obtained highly water dispersible and photoluminescent CNDs. Using this approach, we obtained a highly water dispersible aqueous solution of CNDs from the carbonized bamboo black powder, the concentration of which was 0.516 mg/mL; the yield, after extracting 5 g of carbonized bamboo with 100 mL of water, was approximately 1%. Our CNDs exhibited high photoluminescence with a value of λem of 430 nm, a fluorescence quantum yield (QY) of 4.2 %, a particle size of approximately 3–5 nm, and presented both COOH and OH functionalities. The presence of this nanostructure explains the transparency in aqueous media. Our top-down approach using carbonized bamboo allowed the preparation of CNDs having nano-size particles in aqueous solution. When irradiated with a UV lamp (365 nm, 4.5 W), blue PL emission occurred from the aqueous CND solutions. Fluorescence emission spectra of the aqueous CNDs solutions after excitation at wavelengths from 270 nm with an increment of 10 nm; we also obtained corresponding optical fluorescence images of these solutions under UV irradiation at 365 nm. The emission wavelength exhibited excitation wavelength–dependent PL behavior: it ranged from 412 to 430 nm when the excitation wavelength was increased from 270 to 320 nm. In addition, increasing the excitation wavelength increased the intensity of the PL emission. We suspected that the PL behavior of our CNDs could be attributed to many factors, including emissive traps, quantum confinement, and electronically conjugated structures. The XRD pattern of the CNDs displayed a broad peak centered near a value of 2θ of 23.8°, corresponding to the graphitic (002) lattice spacing. This broad XRD peak suggested that the CNDs featured weakly graphitic crystallinity with a d-spacing of approximately 3.8 Å, arising from to the presence of oxygen-containing functional groups on the CND surface. The Raman spectrum of our CNDs exhibits a graphitic band (G band; sp2-hybridized carbon atoms) at 1580 cm–1 and a disorder band (D band; sp3-hybridized carbon atoms) at 1380 cm–1. The relative intensity of the D and G bands, ID/IG, can be used to characterize the quality of defective disorders or graphitization in CND materials. Our value of ID/IG (1.03) reveals a high degree of defects, which we attribute to oxygen-containing functional groups on the CNDs. All of these characterization data suggest the successful preparation of fluorescent CNDs from biosourced carbonized bamboo. Its excellent photoluminescence and biocompatibility provides a bio-medical potential for the cell-image and drug delivery system.
• 0-dimension CNDs is a photoluminescent carbon-based nanomaterial, possessing low cell toxicity, low photobleaching behavior and stable water dispersity.
• CNDs possess excellent photoluminescence and biocompatibility as potential for cell-image and drug delivery.
• Our CNDs could obtained through carbonized bamboo following by aqueous extraction, which possess highly water dispersible, photoluminescent, and 3-5nm particle size.

Sccy's CPX-2 TT pistol is designed to be an affordable 9mm option that still delivers solid, reliable performance. It features an all-metal chassis embedded in a light, polymer frame, and it feels more expensive than its price point when handled. It comes with two 10-round magazines and features highly visible, big white dot sights. It has an internal hammer, so it's double action only, but it has a stable, consistent trigger pull that helps you deliver precise shots. These features, along with its nice small size (1" width, 5.7" overall length) and lightweight design (just 15 ounces) make it an excellent concealed carry option.

KUCHING: Sarawakians have been told that they are fortunate to have a capable state government that has acted immediately to minimise the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Alexander Nanta Linggi were referring to the Sarawakku Sayang Special Aid Package which was announced last Monday.
Nanta said the initiatives should be supported by the people as the government is seriously handling the pandemic and related problems.
“It shows that our chief minister and his Cabinet ministers are working hard to help the people by introducing the special aid,” he said, adding that he was pleased to have received the news about the aid package.
Nanta emphasised that the aid would help people who are badly affected by the movement control order (MCO) and those who are working as frontliners in the fight against the pandemic.
He added that besides the special aid, the state government’s quick actions that mitigate the spread of Covid-19 should be lauded as well.
“We were the first to act. Sarawak took fast actions to restrict tourists coming from infected countries. If not, there would have been many more cases. This is why our people need to be aware of updates from the state government,” he said.
“Another good thing is that we have a very active State Disaster Management Committee chaired by Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas.”

Anyone else feeling hungry after this? This thriller by Thomas Harris and directed by Jonathan Demme, is just fantastic. It’s so good that I think honestly most crime shows and movies take aspects from this film and use it. Jodie Foster does an excellent job as young Agent Starling. Anthony Hopkins shows his inner dark side in a truly creepy role as Hannibal “The Cannibal” Lecter. The script is highly quotable and honestly it’s still a really good thriller compared to today’s standards. An A+ Film.

What is Steam Quality? Steam quality is the proportion of saturated steam (vapor) in a saturated condensate (liquid)/ steam (vapor) mixture. A steam quality of 0 indicates 100 % liquid, (condensate) while a steam quality of 100 indicates 100 % steam. One (1) lb of steam with 95 % steam and 5 % percent of liquid entrainment has a steam quality of 0.95.

These fully automatic unmanned units produce 8 T/h of high quality dry steam and are sequentially controlled to maintain system pressure. They can be started and brought up to full pressure within 5 minutes from a cold start.
The oil heating system distributes heat in three different ways: hot air from the air vents, hot water from the skirt board, or steam from the radiator. Your thermostat detects that the room temperature has fallen below a set point and signals your heating system to provide heating to your home.
Steam purity refers to the amount of solid, liquid, or vaporous contamination in the steam. High-purity steam contains very little contamination. Normally, steam purity is reported as the solids content. Steam purity should not be confused with steam quality. Steam quality is a measure of the amount of moisture in the steam.
The advantage of two steam outlets in the generator and two steam heads with steam shields in your room is to keep the noise level as low as possible. 2 Automatic self cleaning system. 3 Descaling pump for periodic use to keep the generator in 100% efficient condition. 4 Aroma oil pump to provide luxury vapors in your steam room.

Films set to suck in audiences this summer in China include DreamWorks’ animated “Madagascar 3,” which opened in China over the weekend and Relativity Media’s “Mirror Mirror,” a remake of fairy tale “Snow White,” featuring actress Julia Roberts.
Hollywood is looking for brighter days after several big-budget films, such as Warner Brothers’ “Dark Shadows” and Disney’s “John Carter,” have fallen out with U.S. audiences, and China offers it a glimmer of hope.
Chinese movie-goers have already jolted sales for Marvel’s “The Avengers,” which came out in May and had hauled in more than $84 million out of roughly $800 million internationally, according to Box Office Mojo, an online box office reporting service. Despite having roughly three minutes of footage sliced out by the country’s film censors, “Men in Black 3” from Sony/Columbia was also a hit, garnering nearly $22 million in its opening weekend in China versus $54.5 million in the U.S., says Box Office Mojo.
“Hollywood has shown increasing reliance on Chinese audiences because of the quick expansion of screens and the incredible market, and this will only grow in the summer blockbuster season,” says Michael Berry, a Chinese film expert and professor of Chinese cultural studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
Just last month, Chinese conglomerate Dalian Wanda Group Corp. agreed to acquire AMC Entertainment Holdings, the second-largest theater chain in the U.S. and Canada, in a deal valued around $2.6 billion.
But while China’s booming movie market may boost the U.S. industry, its success could negatively affect the domestic market, Mr. Cain said.

It was March 2020 when the TikTok app was in the groundbreaking surge when people were in dire need of finding entertainment. It surpassed the 2 billion downloads on mobile phones. After that, the downloads still stayed on the same scale, as they provided the best entertainment to millennials, Gen Z, and surprisingly even boomers.
But things had started to change when the US government and the Indian government said that the video-sharing app is collecting phone data of the users. Nevertheless, the video-sharing market is never short of the best apps, and here we are going to see the best 17 free video-sharing/editing Apps like TikTok. Buckle up!
Instagram has recently added a new feature in its app called Reels. This is just like a standard version of TikTok, which lets users create short-form videos to music. The duration is 15 seconds long, which is also similar to that of TikTok. Users can add any music to the videos and create a video to sync with the background sound. They can add an array of filters and effects on top of them.
The most significant difference is that it lets the users share these short videos with their friends directly on Instagram. But the only pain point is that it won’t allow the users to upload the songs directly into the app and doesn’t let users “duet” with each other.
It is a free video-sharing app that lets users record and share videos whose length is 21 seconds. The Clashers (that is what the app calls its users) can discover new creators and videos through the app’s main tab.
Clash is different from TikTok, as it lets the users gain actual ownership over their contents. Also, it allows the users to show their love they have for the influencers and creators by a feature called “Drops,” where users can pay or drop any monetary rewards. In this way, it acts as a boost for the creators to create unique content instead of relying on sponsorships.
It is a video editing app just like TikTok. As it offers unique filters, stickers, and special effects, it lets the dancers go crazy over it. Unlike the simple color-changing filters found in any other apps, it offers cutting-edge tools and artificial intelligence. It surpasses the fundamental editing features with great tools like 1,000 video effects like stickers and video filters. As an addition to it, it has features like hair color changing, 4D special effects, etc.
This is a free app but also allows in-app purchases. This is the oldest in the video-sharing app category. It has over a hundred million downloads that prove to us its specialty. It lets users add extra fun and famous sounds to the video, like TV and movie quotes. Users can also add stickers and text overlays to the videos. People can share their videos on other social media networks easily.
It is the most trendsetting app on the social media platform, as it allows users to trim or cut videos and apply upto 50 filters, and it even lets the users draw over the tapes to express creativity. The most famous celebrities like Kevin Hart and Selena Gomez use this platform to record and publish their videos. The app edits the users’ video automatically using AI-powered software.
Though it is a free app, it also allows users to make in-app purchases. Users can chat with their friends. They can upload short videos in the form of “stories” to share their best moments that will only last for 24 hours. People loved this, and looking at its popularity, other social media platforms like Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook also integrated this feature into their platforms.
This app is perfect for the TikTok app beginners. The app contains in-app tutorials using which users can watch popular TikTok videos and learn how to create contents that will be innovative and engaging videos. Not just the tutorial features, but the app also lets users use a considerable number of visual effects, music, filter, etc.
Users can connect to other apps such as TikTok, Instagram, and Snapchat so that people can share their contents to other apps in just easy taps.
MuStar Lip Sync Musical Battle
This app is just similar to TikTok in video effects. However, just like the name suggests, it offers the best lip-sync musical battle of any apps. The music collection of this app is also more significant than that of TikTok’s music collection. The intuitive UI of an app is critical, and proper that the users find the app perfect because of the smooth-sailing experience while navigating through the app.
The app is free to use, and this app’s concept is different and unique from other video social platforms. It is an unbiased, free speech short video-sharing platform that lets users share their opinions. Clapper promotes and protects free and civilized speech.
