Ken Adam is acknowledged as the world's greatest living production designer: creator of the look of the James Bond films, winner of Oscars for Stanley Kubrick's Barry Lyndon and the film version of Alan Bennett's The Madness Of King George. Now he explains his own extraordinary contribution to the art of cinema. He left Germany in the 1930s - and his work was heavily influenced by the German Expressionist cinema of that time. After serving in the RAF during the war, he became involved in production design in 1948, getting his first Art Director credit on Around The World In Eighty Days in 1956. Since then he has designed 75 films, creating the bold and revolutionary designs for the first seven James Bond movies, as well as the startling war room in Kubrick's Dr Strangelove. Since 1999 an exhibition of Adam's work has been travelling around the world, but his achievements in cinema have not been properly acknowledged until this book, in which Christopher Frayling expertly conducts a career-length interview with a man whose designs have enriched some of the great films of our time.
A must for anyone interested in classic design Follows the huge success of the Saul Bass exhibition at the Design Museum in London - here is the work of a designer whose work has been perhaps even more influential Bond fans, Kubrick fans and anyone interested in the art of cinema will love this book The classic account of a design genius in his own words, essential for both film and design sections

Tropical Storm Karen weakens; Bay declares emergency 'just in case'
Oct 4, 2013, 12:04
Tropical Storm Karen has slowed, according to the most recent National Hurricane Center forecast, but at 11;30 a.m. Friday, the city of Bay St. Louis declared a state of emergency, in case the storm strengthens again or changes direction.
"Right now, we think the worst of it is going to be higher tides, maybe three-to-five feet above normal ...," Mayor Les Fillingame said. "I don't think we will have a lot of wind-driven clean-up, but we're going to be ready, just in case."
By declaring a state of emergency, the city will be eligible for assistance from the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency, should the need arise.
The National Weather Service's latest forecast indicates Karen has slowed to about 50 mile-per-hour winds.

Iran says exporting radiopharmaceuticals to Europe, India
Iran’s nuclear chief has highlighted the country’s achievements in the field of nuclear medicine, saying Iran is now exporting its homegrown radiopharmaceuticals to several countries in the world.
According to Press TV, Ali Akbar Salehi, the Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), said India, Lebanon, Iraq, and some European countries are among customers of Iranian radiopharmaceuticals.
In the near future, he said, Iran will turn into a major exporter of radiopharmaceuticals in a wider scale, as the number of Iranian-made radiopharmaceuticals is increasing every year.
Speaking in a televised interview on Saturday marking the National Day of Nuclear Technology, Salehi referred to Lutetium-177 as one of the domestically-developed pharmaceuticals unveiled on Saturday, and said every single dose of Lutetium-177 can cost prostate cancer patients 15,000 euros if they are bought from other countries.
He said Iran is prepared to move forward in the nuclear industry, and is on the verge of industrializing nuclear energy.
“Iran is now competing with Argentina, Brazil, Pakistan, and India,” he said, highlighting the country’s design and development of research reactors.
“Based on the law approved by the Parliament, we should prepare and install 1,000 IR-6 centrifuges, and we are working on that… Today we have increased our uranium enrichment capacity to 16,500 SWU, and we are moving forward with slow and calculated steps,” he added.
According to Salehi, Iran currently has 15 types of centrifuges including IR-8, IR-9, IR-S, IR-5, and IR-7 as well as a full cascade of IR-6 which has been launched.
Salehi’s comments came a few hours after the Iranian president unveiled 133 new nuclear achievements made by the country’s experts in different areas of the nuclear industry, including quantum, enrichment, heavy water and deuterium compounds, radiopharmaceuticals, lasers, etc.
In a video conference call earlier in the day, President Hassan Rouhani unveiled the nuclear achievements in the Provinces of Tehran, Markazi, Isfahan, Alborz and Qom to mark the 15th anniversary of the National Nuclear Technology Day.

CHICAGO – Let’s face it, life does suck. But what can we do about that? How do we survive? Lookingglass Theatre Company’s latest stage presentation tries to answer those thorny questions through a group of fellow travelers, flung together at a cabin retreat, trying to figure out why (indeed) “Life Sucks.”
A Clockwork Orange
CHICAGO – Does it say something about the current market of Blu-rays that nine of our top ten releases of the year (and, honestly, most of the runner-ups considered) are for catalog releases and special editions instead of films produced in the current era? More and more often, modern releases seem kind of lackluster. Throw on a featurette, maybe a deleted scene or two, and put it on the shelf.
CHICAGO – When film lovers hear the name of one of the great masters of the form — Stanley Kubrick — their mind usually races to one of his most famous flicks, whether it be “2001: A Space Odyssey,” “A Clockwork Orange,” “Dr. Strangelove,” “The Shining,” or even “Full Metal Jacket.” But where did one of our most beloved directors hone his craft? In a series of smaller films, two of which are now available in a single Criterion Blu-ray or DVD release — “The Killing” and “Killer’s Kiss.”
CHICAGO – Malcolm McDowell will probably be best remembered for his rebellious breakout as a young star, with his one-of-a-kind performances in “If…,” “A Clockwork Orange” and “O Lucky Man!,” but the distinct character actor has been working ever since.
CHICAGO – To coincide with the Blu-ray box set of Stanley Kubrick films (including “2001: A Space Odyssey,” “The Shining,” and eight more films), Warner Bros. has released a very special edition of “A Clockwork Orange,” timed to the four-decade anniversary of one of the most influential movies ever made. With stellar new special features, a great transfer, and a timeless film, this is one of the best Blu-ray releases of the year to date.
CHICAGO – “Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel.” No film has as succinctly captured the truth of this brilliant Samuel Johnson quote as Stanley Kubrick’s masterful “Paths of Glory,” one of the best anti-war films ever made. It’s a work that often gets overlooked by the flashier projects like “2001: A Space Odyssey,” “A Clockwork Orange,” or “The Shining” that Kubrick would make later in his career, but it’s easily one the best works from one of history’s best directors and the Criterion Collection Blu-ray release of the film is another stunning beauty.

Daglish was born in North East England. He became a member of the Institution of Civil Engineers in 1830. He died at Orrell on 28 December 1865 and is buried at the Church of St Thomas the Martyr, Upholland. He had married Margaret Twizel in 1804. Their children included George (1805-1870), who became a surgeon and Robert.
Dalglish moved to Lancashire in 1804 where he was employed by Lord Balcarres to manage Haigh Foundry and the adjacent Brock Mill Forge. While at Haigh he built pumping, winding and blast engines which in their day were described as "improved and efficient machines".
Around 1810, Daglish moved to Orrell where he was appointed manager of John Clarke's Orrell Colliery. Having seen the rack locomotives John Blenkinsop designed for the Middleton Railway near Leeds in 1812, under licence, he built the Yorkshire Horse to the same design as Blenkinsop's Salamanca. He converted the colliery wagonway between the collieries at Winstanley and the Leeds and Liverpool Canal at Crooke to a running track with stone sleepers and iron rails. The locomotive was built at Haigh Foundry. Under Daglish's management the colliery was extremely profitable. He built a second locomotive and said they each did the work of 14 horses saving the company about £500 per year.
Dalglish supervised much of the construction work on the Bolton and Leigh Railway which opened in 1828. he rebuilt the locomotive, Novelty, for the St Helens and Runcorn Gap Railway in 1833. With his son, Robert who erected the machinery for that railway's inclined planes, they operated the line from 1839 until 1848. Dalglish was consulted by other railway companies such as the Newcastle & Carlisle Railway in 1832 and the Great North of England Railway. He won a prize in the London and Birmingham Railway's competition for the best design for rail chairs. In North America, Dalglish was consulted by the Baltimore and Susquehanna, the Boston and Providence, the New York and Harlem and Norwich and Worcester Railroads.
Robert Daglish (1809-1883)
Daglish's son, Robert (1809-1883) was also an engineer. He trained with Hick and Rothwell in Bolton before moving to Lee Watson and Company's St Helens Iron Foundry. The foundry supplied machinery for mills, mines, waterworks, glassworks, and railways. Iron lattice truss bridges were supplied to the Liverpool and Bury Railway in 1846. He was also a railway contractor.

VALUE YOUR SEX LIFE TODAY
Sex is an important bonding component in marriage. So even if you feel somewhat separated from your spouse, sex can often be the experience that restores your bond, it allow both of you to feel closer, get affection and stimulate a sense of intimacy.
The world today offers conflict, pressure, disappointment, rejection, bitterness, performance evaluation of different source in marriage. Sexuality in marriage can be the antidote. To know and be known – physically, emotionally, and spiritually – I call it the healing balm in marriage, it performs one of the most healing aspects of a healthy marriage.
For most men who are the introvert in relationships, sex can help them open up a little.
From a biological point of view, sex has a very positive effect on brain chemistry that can make an important contribution to the on-going health of your marriage. Sex primes the pump for intimacy and healing in marriage.
Marriages that don’t maintain their sexual vitality are very much at risk. Plan together to protect and promote your sex life (stayhitched.com)
The more you think about sex, the more you will want it, so be sure to take time to think
It would be short sighted for couples to get married and talk about "till death do us part" if they didn't consider what they were going to do to keep their sex life interesting. Yet, that is what happens to most couples who wed.
Couples talk about their new place settings, TVs, and bedrooms sets etc, but are naive about the issues that will have a huge impact on their ability to keep their marriage healthy.
Married sex has the capacity to be the best sex, but only if the couple values its importance. Do value yours today

(AFTERWARDS EARL OF MANSFIELD.)
Not to admire, is all the art I know, To make men happy, and to keep them so.' (Plain truth, dear Murray! needs no flowers of speech,
So take it in the very words of Creech.)
This vault of air, this congregated ball,
Self-centred sun, and stars that rise and fall,
There are, my friend! whose philosophic eyes
Look through, and trust the Ruler with his skies;
To him commit the hour, the day, the year,
And view this dreadful all-without a fear.
Admire we then what earth's low entrails hold, Arabian shores, or Indian seas infold;
All the mad trade of fools and slaves for gold?
Or popularity? or stars and strings?
The mob's applauses, or the gifts of kings?
Say with what eyes we ought at courts to gaze,
And pay the great our homage of amaze?
If weak the pleasure that from these can spring,
The fear to want them is as weak a thing:
Whether we dread, or whether we desire,
In either case, believe me, we admire :
Whether we joy or grieve, the same the curse,
Surprised at better, or surprised at worse.
Thus good or bad, to one extreme betray
The' unbalanced mind, and snatch the man away;
For Virtue's self may too much zeal be had;
The worst of madmen is a saint run mad.
Go then, and if you can, admire the state
Of beaming diamonds and reflected plate;
Procure a taste to double the surprise,
And gaze on Parian charms with learned eyes;
Be struck with bright brocade on Tyrian dye,
Our birth-day nobles' splendid livery.
If not so pleased, at council-board rejoice
To see their judgments hang upon thy voice;
From morn to night, at senate, rolls, and hall,
Plead much, read more, dine late, or not at all.
But wherefore all this labour, all this strife?
For fame, for riches, for a noble wife?
Shall one whom nature, learning, birth, conspired
To form, not to admire, but be admired,
Sigh while his Chloe, blind to wit and worth,
Weds the rich dulness of some son of earth?
Yet Time ennobles or degrades each line;
It brighten'd Craggs's, and may darken thine.
And what is fame? the meanest have their day;
The greatest can but blaze, and pass away.
Graced as thou art with all the power of words,
So known, so honour'd, at the house of lords;
Conspicuous scene! another yet is nigh,
(More silent far) where kings and poets lie;
Where Murray (long enough his country's pride)
Shall be no more than Tully or than Hyde!
Rack'd with sciatics, martyr'd with the stone, Will any mortal let himself alone?
See Ward, by batter'd beaux invited over,
And desperate misery lays hold on Dover.
The case is easier in the mind's disease;
There all men may be cured whene'er they please.
Would ye be bless'd? despise low joys, low gains';
Disdain whatever Cornbury disdains;
Be virtuous, and be happy for your pains.
But art thou one whom new opinions sway,
One who believes as Tindal leads the way,
Who virtue and a church alike disowns,
Thinks that but words, and this but brick and stones?
Fly then on all the wings of wild desire,
Admire whate'er the maddest can admire.
Is wealth thy passion? hence! from pole to pole,
Where winds can carry, or where waves can roll;
For Indian spices, for Peruvian gold,
Prevent the greedy, and outbid the bold;
Advance the golden mountain to the skies;
On the broad base of fifty thousand rise;
Add one round hundred, and (if that's not fair)
Add fifty more, and bring it to a square:
For, mark the' advantage; just so many score
Will gain a wife with half as many more,
Procure her beauty, make that beauty chaste,
And then such friends-
s—as cannot fail to last.
A man of wealth is dubb'd a man of worth;
Venus shall give him form, and Anstis birth.
(Believe me many a German prince is worse,
Who proud of pedigree is poor of purse.)
His wealth brave Timon gloriously confounds;
Ask'd for a groat, he gives a hundred pounds;
Or if three ladies like a luckless play,
Takes the whole house upon the poet's day.
Now, in such exigencies not to need,
Upon my word you must be rich indeed:
A noble superfluity it craves,
Not for yourself, but for your fools and knaves ;
Something which for your honour they may cheat,
And which it much becomes you to forget.
If wealth alone then make and keep us bless'd,
Still, still be getting; never, never rest.
But if to power and place your passion lie,
If in the pomp of life consist the joy;
Then hire a slave, or (if you will) a lord,
To do the honours, and to give the word;
Tell at your levee, as the crowds approach,
To whom to nod, whom take into your coach,
Whom honour with your hand; to make remarks,
Who rules in Cornwall, or who rules in Berks:
This may be troublesome, is near the chair; That makes three members, this can choose a mayor.'
Instructed thus, you bow, embrace, protest,
Adopt him son, or cousin, at the least,
Then turn about, and laugh at your own jest.
Or if your life be one continued treat,
If to live well means nothing but to eat;
Up, up! cries Gluttony, 'tis break of day,
Go drive the deer, and drag the finny prey:
With hounds and horns go hunt an appetite-
So Russel did, but could not eat at night;
Call'd happy dog the beggar at his door,
And envied thirst and hunger to the poor.
Or shall we every decency confound, [round?
Through taverns, stews, and bagnios, take our
Go dine with Chartres, in each vice outdo
K**I's lewd cargo, or Ty**y's crew;
From Latian sirens, French Circæan feasts,
Return'd well travell'd, and transform'd to beasts; Or for a titled punk or foreign flame
Renounce our country, and degrade our name?
If, after all, we must with Wilmot' own The cordial drop of life is love alone; And Swift cry wisely, Vive la bagatelle! The man that loves and laughs must sure do well. Adieu-if this advice appear the worst,
E'en take the counsel which I gave you
Or better precepts if you can impart;
Why do; I'll follow them with all my heart.
IN THE MANNER OF DR. SWIFT.
"Tis true, my lord, I gave my word
I would be with you June the third;
Changed it to August, and (in short)
Have kept it as you do at court.
You humour me when I am sick,
Why not when I am splenetic?
In town what objects could I meet?
The shops shut up in every street,
And funerals blackening all the doors,
And yet more melancholy whores:
And what a dust in every place?
And a thin court that wants your face,
And fevers raging up and down,
And W* and H** both in town!
'The dog days are no more the case.'
"Tis true, but winter comes apace:
Then southward let your bard retire,
Hold out some months 'twixt sun and fire;

Like a lot of ghost stories, the tale of Henry Vignes, who is said to haunt New Orleans’ St. Louis Cemetery, is a sad one.
Vignes, a sailor during the nineteenth century, trusted the wrong person with keeping his important documents, including the deeds to his family tomb, according to Ghost City Tours’ website.
The swindler sold the deeds and Vignes died before he could reclaim ownership. Instead of being placed in his family tomb, the sailor was buried in an unmarked grave in the St. Louis Cemetery.
Since his death, visitors of the cemetery have claimed to see Vignes looking for his grave. Some even say his ghost will approach the living and ask if they know where the Vignes tomb is. Others said his apparition can be heard saying “I need to rest!” as he wanders through the tombs.

What really happened at XCell-Center in Germany, formerly the largest stem cell clinic in Europe?
A baby died after receiving treatment there. Why? Was the death in any way connected to stem cells? (update: note that since post originally went up, quite a few more patient deaths both a clinics and in clinical trials have been reported.)
A commenter on a recent post of mine on reports of the possible deaths from stem cell interventions in Germany of three politicians from the Philippines, provided some fresh details on the now closed German clinic called XCell-Center. Whether the details are factual remains unclear at this time, but they might be.
The commenter even defended XCell and said it had gotten a “bad rap”.
The commenter, named XCell-Info, had this to say about XCell, showing some apparent very detailed, in depth knowledge of the place and their practices:
The XCell-Center primarily used autologous CD34+ stem cells from bone marrow. The cells were spun out (not expanded) in a certified GMP lab. Very few MSCs are found in the bone marrow.
To set the record straight, that particular patient died neither from stem cells nor from their injection. The death resulted from bleeding that was caused by the neurosurgeon while attempting to surgically open a brain ventricle blockage. Stem cells were never injected into that patient. Even though brain injections represented a tiny fraction of procedures performed at XCell, I strongly disagreed with their use and my opinion on that remains unchanged today.
The vast majority of patients were treated systemically and/or intrathecally depending on their particular disease or disorder. Some were treated via cardiac catheter by a licensed, experienced cardiologist in a cath lab, the standards of which, along with the rest of XCell’s treatment facilities, met or surpassed those found at US facilities. Many orthopedic conditions were treated by injecting the cells into the affected joint(s), a procedure not unlike that XXXX US orthopedists routinely use in the US today.
Despite the bad rap the XCell gets from reporters, bloggers and certain patient forums with axes to grind, for the most part, XCell did nothing more than treat patients with their own bone-marrow derived stem cells under pristine lab conditions in world-class treatment facilities.
It goes without saying that their upper management left a lot to be desired, to say the least. However, at least in my somewhat more informed opinion than almost anyone else, XCell does not deserve the categorical bad rap it routinely gets unless one believes that no patient should be treated with their own bone marrow-derived stem cells for things like arthritis, MS, heart conditions, knee problems, COPD, etc.
The “XXXX” is an edit by me to maintain consistency with our blog policy. I thought readers would find many aspects of this comment interesting. Reactions?
I for one am not convinced that XCell got a bad rap, but it is important to get as much detail as to the facts of the case as possible.
Is the comment above factual? Frankly, I’m not entirely sure at this point and am looking for more information. What do you think?

Piers Morgan named Larry King replacement
British television host Piers Morgan is to replace veteran CNN talk show host Larry King in January, bringing what is expected to be a more acerbic tone to the long-running prime time US interview show.
CNN said that Morgan, 45, a former British tabloid newspaper editor and currently a judge on the popular NBC show America's Got Talent, will start his CNN show in January. King announced in June he would end Larry King Live after a 25-year reign.
Morgan said he would bring "journalistic rigor" to the job and said he would like one of his first interviews to be with US President Barack Obama.
"Outside of America, people love him (Obama)... I think he's an amazing charismatic figure who's going through a tough time at the moment, and the midterm elections are coming... I'd love to sit down with him and have a frank interview," Morgan told The Hollywood Reporter.
He also said he would love to be the first to interview "Mel Gibson or Lindsay Lohan or whoever is in the news who is relevant and current."
The name of Morgan's CNN show, which will air weekdays at 9pm, has not been announced but it was billed by CNN as a "candid, in-depth newsmaker interview program" based in New York with Morgan also working from London and Los Angeles.
Morgan has hosted a variety of shows in Britain and has a reputation on America's Got Talent as a caustic critic in the vein of fellow Briton Simon Cowell. He has also appeared alongside Cowell on Britain's Got Talent since 2007.
Morgan will keep his job with America's Got Talent. But he is expected to leave his four-year long judging stint on sister show Britain's Got Talent, which is scheduled to resume in January 2011, according to industry sources.
The winner of Donald Trump's The Celebrity Apprentice reality show in 2008, Morgan will however keep his job on British network ITV, where his program Life Stories has included interviews with celebrities and politicians, the New York Times said.
The 76-year old King, who forged a reputation for nonconfrontational interviews, will host his last show in mid December, CNN said.
Morgan said in a statement he had "dreamed of one day filling the legendary suspenders of the man I consider to be the greatest TV interviewer of them all."
Morgan beat other candidates said to be in the running for the prime time TV job, including American Idol host Ryan Seacrest and CBS television news anchor Katie Couric.
Morgan's career has not been without controversy.
He was fired from his post as editor of Britain's Daily Mirror in 2004 after the paper ran photos, later revealed as fake, of British soldiers apparently abusing an Iraqi detainee. Several years earlier, he was investigated for, and later cleared of, charges of insider trading relating to shares tipped in a Daily Mirror financial column.

Washington was born in Pennsylvania and began his career in vaudeville as a master of ceremonies. Having started his songwriting career with Earl Carroll's Vanities on Broadway in the late 1920s, he joined the ASCAP in 1930. He would become one of the giants of Tin Pan Alley and contributed numerous popular standards to jazz and to the big band scene. During these tenures, he collaborated with many of the great composers of the era, including Hoagy Carmichael, Victor Young, Max Steiner, and Dimitri Tiomkin. His catalogue includes titles, such as "I'm Getting Sentimental Over You" (theme song for bandleader Tommy Dorsey), "Singin in the Bathtub", "I Don't Stand a Ghost of a Chance With You", "The Nearness of You" (made popular by Glenn Miller), "Stella By Starlight", "Green Dolphin Street", "La Cucaracha", and "My Foolish Heart.
In 1934, he relocated to Los Angeles where he began writing full scores for feature films, as well as songs, like Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, Town Without Pity, Circus World, Brazil, The Young Land, Wild Is the Wind, Miss Sadie Thompson, The High and the Mighty, High Noon, My Foolish Heart, Let's Do It Again, Tropic Holiday, The Big Show, Return to Paradise, Round-Up Time in Texas, Romance in the Dark, and Night at the Opera. Washington was nominated for eleven Academy Awards from 1940 to 1962. He won the Best Original Song award twice.
He also co-wrote theme song for the television shows: Naked City, Gunslinger, Temple Houston, and Rawhide.
He also served as a director of the ASCAP from 1957 until his death in 1976 of a heart ailment. He also served as a member of the Songwriters Hall of Fame of which he was inducted in 1972.

Keywords: Canal; Flow Resistance; Friction Factor; Reservoir and Settling Basin
Abstract: Withdrawal of water from a river into a canal involves the construction of a barrage or a dam across the river depending on whether the river is perennial or not. The design of the reservoir upstream of the dam and of the canal requires consideration of the sediment load carried by the river in case the river is sedimentladen. The basic equations concerning morphological changes in such rivers are discussed with particular reference to computation of reservoir sedimentation. The hydraulics of lined canals carrying wash load is examined from the point of view of limiting transport capacity and changes in frictional resistance. Lastly, the methods of design of sediment extraction devices like settling basins and vortex chambers are presented.

This present invention relates to a technique for monitoring activity on mobile vehicles. More particularly, the invention is illustrated in an example related to monitoring rail track defects using a locatable rail car coupled to motion sensors.
The fixed rail transportation industry has been around in the United States since the industrial revolution. This type of transportation is used extensively today in moving both cargo and people from one geographical location to another geographical location. In the United States, numerous rail companies move millions of pounds of cargo, and thousands or even millions of people, throughout the continental United States yearly. In more densely populated countries such as Japan, "bullet trains" are used extensively to transport people from a busy metropolitan area such as Tokyo to Osaka or the like. In France, high speed rail systems such as the TGV continue to become more important as the population of the country increases. As such, there are literally thousands or even millions of miles of railroad tracks traversing the United States, among numerous other countries.
These railroad tracks, however, must be routinely inspected to prevent a possibility of track failure. Track failure often occurs by way of soil and gravel displacement, or erosion of timber that is used underlying the railroad tracks, for example. Unfortunately, track failure occurs at an alarming rate, which often leads to significant property damage and even death, in some cases.
In the United States, for instance, there are literally thousands of train related accidents due to track failures yearly. Literally tens of thousands of people are affected by way of environmental contamination caused by derailing train cars from track failure. Property damage caused by track failure is often in the millions of even billions of dollars yearly.
An article in the Los Angeles Times headlined "Tragedy on the Rails." This article stated that an eight car train carrying dangerous chemicals plunged from the rails and exploded in flames before dawn hurling a noxious cloud into the sky which forced the closing an interstate highway. Two bodies were found near the derailed train. A monstrous fire, throwing flames 600 to 800 feet in the air, burned bad and high causing significant damage to person and property. This article is merely one example of the type of damage caused by track failure.
Accordingly, industry has proposed some techniques in an attempt to prevent track failure. One of these techniques is to merely perform a visual inspection of the track during maintenance rounds. This visual inspection often involves railroad workers that walk down the track and visually look for possible track failures. This technique often requires large human capital and is not generally efficient for predicting the behavior of railroad tracks in a routine manner.
Other techniques have been proposed to detect certain defects in a rail way system using sensors. These techniques are, however, limited. In particular, they can only provide information for chronic or severe defects, which must be repaired immediately. These sensors are essentially "dumb" and cannot really be used to predict the future behavior of the railway system. Additionally, the techniques are generally in terms of providing sensing techniques for the rail car unit itself, similar to sensors used to track engine oil pressure, temperature, and the like. Accordingly, there are simply no effective techniques for identifying potential defects in the railroad assembly.
From the above, it can be seen that a technique for identifying potential defects on a railway system is often desirable.
According to the present invention, a technique including a device and method for detecting anomalies in a railway car system is provided. The present technique uses a sensing device including a tilt sensor and an accelerometer coupled to a global positioning sensor for detecting a presence of anomalies in a moving rail car vehicle.
In a specific embodiment, the invention provides a device for monitoring anomalies in a railway system using a unique sensing device. The device includes motion sensors, including a tilt sensor and an accelerometer operably coupled to a chassis of a rail car to detect an event, which is, for example, a sudden change in rail car acceleration and/or angle caused by a defect in the railway. The event may correspond to an anomaly (e.g., broken track, displaced gravel, weak rail tie cracked track), which tends to cause the railroad track to "give" as the weight or load of the rail car traverses over the anomaly. The device also includes a global positioning system sensor (GPS) operably coupled to the chassis to detect a geographical location of the rail car corresponding to the event. A processor is operably coupled to the motion sensor to direct a signal corresponding to the event. The processor is also operably coupled to the GPS sensor to direct the geographical location corresponding to the event of the rail car. A recorder is operably coupled to the processor to log the signal which may correspond to the anomaly and the geographical location of the rail car.
In an alternative specific embodiment, the present invention provides a method for detecting anomalies in a railway system. The method includes detecting an event from a moving rail car using a motion sensor having a tilt sensor. The event may correspond to an anomaly, such as a broken track, displaced gravel, weak rail tie cracked track, which tends to cause the railroad track to "give" as the weight or load of the rail car traverses over the anomaly. The motion sensor is operably coupled to a chassis of the moving rail car. The method also has a step to transmit an event signal corresponding to the event from the motion sensor to a recorder, and to transmit a location signal to the recorder a track location of the event. The track location is a geographical location from a global positioning sensor (GPS) operably coupled to the chassis.
In yet another alternative embodiment, the present invention provides a method for tracking rail car vehicle, where the method for tracking includes a method for retrofitting a tracking device onto a rail car. The tracking device has a housing having a flange, a motion sensor having a tilt sensor and a linear accelerometer operably coupled to the housing. A global positioning system sensor (GPS) is operably coupled to the housing. A processor is operably coupled to the motion sensor and coupled to the GPS sensor. The method then installs the tracking device onto a chassis of a rail car by attaching the flange to the rail car. This method provides an easy procedure for attaching a tracking device onto a conventional rail car.
Numerous benefits are achieved over pre-existing techniques using the present invention. In particular, the present invention provides a unique sensor arrangement for detecting anomalies over time in a railway system using a moving rail car. This technique can be implemented in conventional rail cars using simple bolt-on tools, which allow for easy retrofitting of conventional rail cars. Additionally, the unique sensor arrangement provides automatic logging of events over time which may correspond to anomalies in an easy and accurate manner, without the use of human railway workers, who must generally walk down the rail track to identify possible defects thereon.
Furthermore, the present invention substantially reduces or even eliminates any subjectivity of analyzing a defect, which is often present using conventional human inspection techniques. Moreover, the present invention provides data to railway workers who can repair or replace possibly damaged sections of railroads to prevent the occurrence of accidents that can cause damage to railroad equipment, environment, and human beings, in some cases. Accordingly, the present invention uses the unique sensing device and tracking system for overcoming defects in present railway systems, thereby saving costs related to damage, possible damage to the environment from accidents, and human lives. These benefits and others are further described throughout this specification.
The present invention achieves these benefits in the context of known process technology. However, a further understanding of the nature and advantages of the present invention may be realized by reference to the latter portions of the specification and attached drawings.

FIG. 1 is a simplified diagram of a rail car system 100 according to the present invention. This diagram is merely an illustration and should not limit the scope of the claims herein. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize other variations, modifications, and alternatives.
The rail car system 100 includes a variety of elements such as a rail car(s) 101, a tracking station 104, a tracking device(s) 105, a satellite 107, among other elements. As shown, the rail car 101 connects to one or more cars in a conventional manner and traverses along a track 109. In common terms, the connection of various rail cars as a unit is referred to as a train. The train often include a locomotive or engine car, which pulls or provides power to other car units. Storage cars connect to the engine car for carrying goods, chemical, people, and the like from one track location to another track location. A caboose connected to the end oversees the train operation.
Each rail car 101 includes typical elements such as ground wheels 111, which can run along track 109. The rail car 101 travels along railroad tracks found in almost any country and state. The rail car 101 also includes a tracking device 105, which monitors a variety of information derived from the rail car and the track. The tracking station 104 stores and analyzes the information derived from the tracking device on the rail car over time.
FIG. 1A is a simplified front-view diagram of the rail car of FIG. 1 according to the present invention. This diagram is merely an illustration and should not limit the scope of the claims herein. This diagram is shown to illustrate the changes in acceleration and angle that the rail car undergoes when the rail car travels over an anomaly (e.g., broken track, displaced gravel, weak rail tie, cracked track) in the railroad track.
The rail car 101 traverses along track 109, which is placed on a railroad tie 113. Railroad tie 113 is provided on a bed of gravel 115 or the like. This gravel is often called packing. As the railroad tie or packing becomes defective, the rail car flexes the track portion with the anomaly, which deflects the rail car 101 in an angle θ 123 between a line 121 relative to a z-axis 117. The tracking device 105 includes a motion sensor that can detect the angle 123 and relative acceleration of the rail car 101. As the railroad tie 113 or packing 115 becomes even more defective, the angle of deflection or rail car acceleration can become even greater, which may indicate even a higher probability of track failure or the like.
Rail car variables are kept at relatively constant values as the rail car travels over the track section with the anomaly so that the motion sensor detects any slight changes to the anomaly over time. These variables include, among others, a speed of the rail car, weight of the rail car, sensor or tracking device placement (e.g., height and position relative to the underlying track). In a preferred embodiment, the tracking device 105 is mounted onto the rail car which has a relatively constant mass 127 relative to other trains and over time. An example of a constant mass car is the locomotive. In most cases, the weight of the locomotive is generally constant, except for the weight of the fuel. The constant mass car provides a similar ride for the motion sensor or the tracking device. Accordingly, the rail car should experience greater movement only as a result of more severe damage to the underlying railroad assembly having the anomaly.
Preferably, the tracking device is placed near a top region of a locomotive, which allows for easier transmission of data from the tracking device to a wireless network, for example. In addition, the top of the locomotive has the greatest relative movement as compared to other car locations, which tends to provide better movement data. In other embodiments, the motion sensor is placed near the top region of the locomotive or other relatively constant mass cars. The tracking device or motion sensor should be placed at a certain height 125 and location 131 relative to the underlying railroad regardless of the type of rail car being used. This allows the tracking device to experience a similar height 125 and placement 131 environment regardless of the rail car.
Additionally, the rail car travels along a selected area of the railroad assembly, which has the anomaly, within a relatively constant speed range. This speed range should not vary greatly to provide accurate motion measurements based upon any change in the anomaly itself. The speed range should not vary greater than about a few miles per hour. A relatively constant speed range tends to ensure that the motion detector senses any change in the anomaly over time, which is independent of the speed of the rail car.
FIG. 2 is a simplified diagram of a tracking device 105 according to the present invention. This is merely an example of a tracking device, which should not limit the scope of the claims herein. The tracking device 105 includes a housing 201. The housing 201 is made from a material that is suitable for use in an environment outside the rail car. The housing 201 can be made of a plastic or steel with sufficient resistance to weather and foreign objects, which can impact the housing 201 while the rail car traverse down the railroad track. The housing 201 is provided upon a flange 202, which includes a plurality of bolt holes 204 for fastening to an upper portion of the rail car. The flange 202 and bolt-on aspects of the housing allows for easy placement and removal of the tracking device 105 from the rail car for repair or analysis purposes.
The housing includes a variety of electronic elements, which are used for tracking information derived from the moving rail car unit. These electronic elements include an accelerometer 207 operably coupled to an interface board 205, which is coupled to a central processing board 203. The accelerometer 207 provides rail car movement information to the central processing board 203 from the moving rail car. The movement information includes sudden changes in rail car acceleration, shock motion experienced by the rail car, and rail car vibration, in some cases. The movement information derived from the accelerometer can be sent to a memory 215 or logging device in housing 201, or sent to an outside user through a radio modem 211, which transmits the movement information via a wireless communication network.
As merely an example, the accelerometer may utilize variable capacitance microsensors. The accelerometer is designed for measurement of a relatively low level acceleration in a rail car unit in a railway system. The accelerometer also can detect sudden shock motion, constant acceleration, and even vibrations from the rail car unit caused by the rail car or an anomaly in the track. A product available which has these features is a variable capacitance accelerometer sold under the name of Endevco Model 7290A. This accelerometer can operate from 9.5 V to 18.0 V and provide a high level, low impedance output. A +/-2 volt differential output is dc coupled at a dc bias of approximately 3.6 volt. Frequency response is controlled by near-critical damped sensors. The use of gas damping results in a small thermally-induced change from frequency response. Again, the Endevco Model 7290A is merely an example, and should not limit the scope of the claims herein.
The tracking device 105 also includes a tilt sensor 209, which provides angular movement information to the central processing board 203 through the interface board 205. Similar to the information from the accelerometer, the angular movement information can be transferred to memory 215 for logging purposes, or sent to an outside user through the radio modem 211. A tilt sensor is generally a proportional non-linear sensor. The tilt sensor should be able to detect slight changes in angle, which ranges from about 0 to about 2 degrees from a position normal to gravity. In certain embodiments, the tilt sensor should be operable in a range from about 0 to about 5 degrees.
The tilt sensor also should be able to operate in a variety of ambient conditions. In particular, the tilt sensor should operate in a temperature range from about -55 to about 100° C., which is much greater than temperatures encountered by a typical rail car unit. In most cases, however, the tilt sensor operates in a temperature range from about -55 to about 55° C. A characteristic time associated with the tilt sensor should be able to allow the meter to recover from changes in the tilt sensor angle. The characteristic time is preferably less than about 1 second and more preferably less than about 0.5 second. An output from the tilt sensor can be in voltage units or the like, depending upon the application. An example of a tilt sensor is a product sold by the Fredericks Company. This product is commonly referred to as a "single axis sensor." This sensor comes in Series 0711 and 0713 designs, which provide for proportional non-linear sensing.
A global positioning system sensor (GPS) 213 is provided in the tracking device 105 to track a global position of the tracking device or of the moving rail car. GPS 213 includes a GPS transceiver 216, among other elements. GPS 213 provides location information (e.g., longitude and latitude) to the central processing board 203 through the interface board 205. The location information is generally stored in memory 215, or transmitted to an outside user using the radio modem 211.
As merely an example, the GPS can be a product sold under the tradename of Placer™ GPS 300 made by Trimble Navigation. The GPS is a low-cost and high performance receiver and antenna. It is sufficiently rugged and lightweight, and housed all in a single package. The GPS mounts on both flat and curved surfaces, which may be ideal for the rail car. The GPS includes a standard RS-232 interface that outputs vehicle location messages in ASCII characters. Six channels allow for continuous tracking of the moving rail car. Output data includes a latitude, a longitude, a speed, a time, and a travel direction (e.g., north, south, east, west). Data acquisition time is less than two seconds in most cases. Position data can be updated once per second. Data can be transferred at baud rates of 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, and others. Positional accuracy is within 2-5 meters under steady state conditions and about 15 meters under non-steady state conditions.
The GPS 300 can operate under a variety of conditions. For instance, it operates in a -40° C. to 70° C. temperature range. A non-operating temperature range is -55° C. to 85° C. The GPS can experience a shock of about 30 grams for 6 milliseconds. Operation also occurs in altitudes ranging from about -400 to +5,000 meters relative to sea level. Humidity can be 98%/66° C. The GPS is also generally weather-proof and dust proof, which are desirable features.
Power to the tracking device 105 is provided by way of various power sources. In particular, a photovoltaic array 218 may provide power to some of the electronic elements described above. The rail car also provides power to the tracking device 105 using a standard connection device 220. Optionally, the tracking device 205 includes a backup battery power supply for times when the main power sources are not available. Additionally, the battery power supply allows for the removal of the tracking device without any loss of information from memory 215.
A display 217 is coupled to the central processing board 203 through the interface board 205. The display can be a flat panel display or a cathode ray tube-type display. In preferred embodiments, the display is a flat panel display, which is generally more durable and resistant to the natural environment. The display is used to output information from the memory 215 and to program software for the present methods, which will be described in more detail below.
A keyboard 223 allows a user to access memory 215 of the tracking device 105 through the central processing board 203. Optionally, a mouse 225 is used to access information from memory 215 through the central processing board 203. The keyboard 223 and mouse 225 are easily connected to the tracking device 105 by way of ports 229 and 227, respectively. These ports are generally sealed to prevent foreign contaminants (e.g., water, dust, dirt) from entering housing 201 while the rail car is in operation.
FIG. 3 is a more detailed block diagram 300 of hardware for the tracking device according to the present invention. This block diagram is merely an illustration and should not limit the scope of the claims herein. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize other variations, modifications, and alternatives.
The block diagram 300 includes numerous common elements to the ones described in FIG. 2, for example. Many of these elements are referenced using the same numerals for easy reading and cross-referencing. As shown, the block diagram includes devices, which would be found on the central processing board 203 and interface board 205. For instance, the central processing board 203 would include a microprocessor 301.
Microprocessor 301 is connected to a clock or oscillator 303 for providing clock signals to the microprocessor 301. A variety of memory chips, including a random access memory chip 305, a read only memory chip 307, and a programmable logic chip 309, are connected or coupled to the microprocessor 301. An LCD controller chip 311 interfaces between the microprocessor and display 217, which is an LCD panel in this embodiment. The RS-232 port is coupled to the microprocessor. The keyboard 223 and mouse 225 are also coupled to the microprocessor. Additionally, the accelerometer 207 and the tilt sensor 209 are coupled to the microprocessor 301 through A/D converters 313, which change the analog signals from these devices into digital.
Modem 211 is a cellular facsimile and data modem, which is connected to the microprocessor 301. Modem 211 transmits 315 and receives 317 signals from a user at a tracking station or central processing office, for example. These signals include data related to time, location (e.g., latitude and longitude), speed, direction, acceleration, tilt, and others. Additionally, control signals may be transmitted and received from the modem 211.
The GPS sensor, including a transceiver 216 and antenna 319, are coupled to the microprocessor 301. Power is provided to the above devices using the photovoltaic array or solar cell 218. Backup battery power is provided using a battery power source 321. To ensure that the power is maintained reliably, a power controller 323 interfaces between the power sources and the devices, e.g., microprocessor, memory. Data storage is provided using a memory 215 in the form of a random access memory disk data storage unit.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram of a rail car monitoring system 400 according to an alternative aspect of the present invention. The rail car monitoring system 400 includes 400 a plurality of tracking devices (D1, D2, D3, D4 . . . DN) 105, the tracking station or central processing facility 104, among other features. This diagram and merely an illustration and should not limit the scope of the claims.
Each of the tracking devices 105 is fitted onto a rail car such as the one described. The rail car traverses successively along a railway route depending upon the train schedule. The tracking device monitors rail car information as the rail car traverses along the track. Each of the rail cars provide rail car information about a selected section of track and time to the tracking station, which records and analyzes the rail car information over time.
The tracking station 104 receives the rail car information from the tracking device in each rail car 105 through a variety of techniques. In particular, the tracking device transmits the rail car information via modem directly to the tracking station in a continuous or in-situ manner. Alternatively, the tracking device transmits the rail car information directly to the tracking station in a periodic manner, e.g., time, location, amount of data. Alternatively, the tracking device stores the rail car information within memory, which will be stored there until the information is transferred at the tracking station 104. Alternatively, the tracking device transmits the rail car information through a depository 421, which is in communication with the central office 104. The depository 421 can be defined along the railway system and transmits the rail car information via a communication network such as a satellite network, a wireless network, a wide area network, a cellular network, the Internet, and the like to the tracking station 104.
Tracking station 104 includes a large processing device 401, which processes a large quantity of rail car information from the numerous rail cars in tracking devices in the railway system. The large processing device is often a main frame computer such as a UNIX machine, a high end workstation, or a personal computer, in some cases. The processing device 401 stores the rail car information in a storage device 403. The storage device 403 can be in the form a disk storage (e.g., RAID), a floppy storage, a tape storage, CD ROM, or the like. The storage device 403 preferably has sufficient memory capability and is easily upgradable for higher levels of memory. Rail car information can be output from the storage device 403 through the processing device 401 to a printer 417 or other output devices. A user interface in the form of a display 405 is coupled to the processing device 401. The user interface also includes a keyboard 413 and a mouse 415.
The processing device 401 accesses specialized software that analyzes the rail car information to identify a potential defect in the railway system, e.g., track. The defect can be defined as an anomaly in the track or track assembly that requires at least a detailed inspection of the track and may require repair of the track to prevent a possibility of track failure. In an embodiment, the processing device 401 displays the defect in the form of an icon 409 on a computer aided map 407, which displays the icon based upon latitude and longitude data 411 from the GPS sensor. The processing device 401 can also be coupled to a common wide area network 419 using a TCP/IP transmission scheme. Further techniques using the rail car monitoring system are described below and illustrated by way of FIGS. 5-6.
A method according to the present invention may be briefly outlined as follow:
1. Provide a tracking device on a rail car;
2. Move rail car in standard railway system;
3. Monitor rail car information (e.g., acceleration, tilt, geographical location, speed, direction, time) using the tracking device;
4. Detect a change in acceleration using an accelerometer coupled to the rail car;
5. Detect a change in angle using a tilt sensor coupled to the rail car;
6. Identify geographical location of the rail car using a GPS unit coupled to the rail car;
7. Correlate the changes in acceleration an/or tilt to the geographical location;
8. Store rail car information in memory;
9. Transmit rail car information to a depository or tracking station;
10. Store information at tracking station for analysis.
The above sequence of steps uses a unique sensing device for tracking rail car information from a moving rail car unit. The rail car information is stored into memory or transmitted to a tracking station or depository for analysis. This analysis can be used to detect any potential failures in a railway system by way of rail car information. Details of this sequence of steps are provided below using FIG. 5, for example.
FIG. 5 is a simplified flow diagram 500 of a rail car monitoring method according to the present invention. This flow diagram is merely an illustration and should not limit the scope of the claims herein. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize other modifications, variations, and alternatives.
The method begins at step 501, for example. The method includes a step of providing (step 502) a tracking device on a rail car. The tracking device can be similar to the one described above, but also can be others. The rail car is a unit in a train, which moves the rail car along standard railway system. As the rail car travels down the railway system, the tracking device monitors (step 503) the rail car information (e.g., acceleration, tilt, geographical location, speed, direction, time).
As the rail car travels, it may, at times, travel over an anomaly in the railway system or rail road track, as shown in step 505. In most cases, the rail car deflects a portion of the track as it travels over the anomaly. As the rail car deflects the track portion, the rail car changes in angle and/or acceleration (step 507). The tracking device detects (step 509) changes in acceleration of the rail car using an accelerometer coupled to the rail car chassis. The tracking device also detects (step 511) a change in angle of the rail car using a tilt sensor coupled to the rail car. Geographical location (i.e., latitude and longitude) is detected (step 513) using a GPS unit coupled to the rail car. A processor correlates (step 515) the changes in acceleration an/or tilt to the geographical location of the tracks the location of the track. That is, the geographical location of the anomaly is tracked by way of the GPS sensor.
The tracking device stores the rail car information in memory (step 517). Now, memory from the tracking device can be downloaded at a tracking station for analysis purposes. Alternatively, the tracking device transmits (step 519) the rail car information to a depository or tracking station. In an embodiment, a radio modem can transmit the rail car information to the tracking station. The tracking station stores the information for analysis. Analysis can occur to possibly detect a presence of a defective track from the rail car information.
The tracking device is described in terms of a combination of hardware and software elements. These hardware and software elements are not intended to limit the scope of the claims. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that the functionality of the hardware and software elements can be further combined, or even separated, in additional hardware or software features.
The invention has now been explained with reference to specific embodiments. Other embodiments will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art in light of the disclosure. In particular, the above hardware and software can be separated by functions for certain applications or further combined, if necessary. It is therefore not intended that this invention be limited, except as indicated by the appended claims.

Behavior At 16 Bits / 44.1 KHz
We made measurements at these settings because they correspond to the CD Audio digital format, which is the one most of your music will be in. Obviously, 16-bit quantification limits the performance of a modern sound card, especially high-performance cards like the X-Fi. The parameters that suffer most are obviously signal-to-noise ratio and dynamic range. On the other hand, with an X-Fi, the parasitic waves that hurt the response of earlier Creative models are gone.
- Frequency response (40 Hz - 15 kHz) : +0.01, -0.07 dB
- Weighted signal-to-noise ratio : 94.6 dB(A)
- Distortion : 0.0008%
- Stereo separation : 94.9 dB
Frequency response : Response was perfectly linear over the entire audio spectrum!
Noise level : Noise level was very low and perfectly regular
Dynamic range : A perfect score given the quantification settings!
Distortion : Distortion was extremely low (H3 around -110 dB!); you can't ask for much better...
Intermodulation : Intermodulation distortion won't cause you any problems!
Stereo separation : Stereo crosstalk increases slightly in the upper part of the spectrum but is still low enough not to be perceptible

Coral zombies may spell doom for coral reefs around world. Scientists have known for a while that coral reefs around the world are dying, and in a worst-case scenario they were counting on large, healthy-looking corals to repopulate.
But a new study presented at the 13th International Coral Reef Symposium in Honolulu today shows that these seemingly healthy colonies are “Coral Zombies” with no reproductive ability, which makes them useless in a recovery effort. Coral zombies may spell doom for coral reefs around world
“It’s pretty discouraging,” said University of Central Florida biologist John E. Fauth, one of the researchers who sampled 34 sites across the Caribbean for the study. “This is not good news.”
Cheryl M. Woodley, a marine biologist with NOAA’s National Ocean Service led the study, which sampled 327 coral colonies off the coasts of Florida, Puerto Rico, and St. Thomas, St. John and St. Croix in the US. Virgin Islands. The researchers analyzed the samples to determine the reproductive ability of elkhorn coral (Acropora palmata), which is a threatened species. Coral zombies may spell doom for coral reefs around world
In some places – including two sites in the Florida Keys – the coral had no eggs or sperm. The study suggests that with no ability to propogate, elkhorn corals in those spots will eventually die out – like zombies, they essentially are walking dead. Two samples from a more remote area in St. Croix found the coral had 100 percent reproduction ability.
“Basically the places with the heaviest tourism had the most severe damage,” Fauth said. He dove and took samples from all of the Puerto Rican sites in the study, along with marine biologists Michael Nemeth and Katie Flynn.
This study adds to growing evidence that coral reefs frequented by divers are in peril. Last year a study found that oxybenzone, a common UV-filtering compound in sunscreen, is in high concentrations in the waters around the more popular coral reefs in Hawaii and the Caribbean. The chemical not only kills coral, it causes DNA damage in adult corral and deforms the larval stage, making it unlikely they can develop properly. The highest concentrations of oxybenzone were found in reefs most popular with tourists. Fauth was a co-investigator of that 2015 study, which was published in the journal Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology.
Oxybenzone also causes coral bleaching, which is a prime cause of coral mortality worldwide. Corals bleach when they lose or expel the algae that normally live inside them, thus losing a valuable source of nutrition.
In another study presented at the symposium on Monday, researchers found the same sunscreen chemical is common in Hawaii, Florida and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and concentrations peak during high tide.
“It’s almost counterintuitive,” said Fauth, who is a co-author of that study as well. “We think that aerosol sunscreen is to blame.” When you spray sunscreen, much of it lands on the sand or water, Fauth said. So when the high tide comes in, it collects all the overspray and pulls it back out to sea.
Together, the two new studies show that coral reefs are in more danger than already thought. Several species of coral are listed as threatened under the U.S. Endangered Species Act.
Reproductive failure in Caribbean coral already was identified as a critical factor preventing their recovery. The news that even corals that appear healthy may be incapable of reproducing and that a chemical linked to coral decline commonly occurs at high concentrations is a double blow, Fauth said.
“We have to act now,” Fauth said. “It is simple things like not using chemicals that harm our coral. Wear rash guards or go without sunscreen during dives. And it is making a serious commitment to conservation and management of our reefs. Coral reefs are the world’s most productive marine ecosystems and support commercial and recreational fisheries and tourism. We want to do everything we can to ensure that the underwater beauty we see today is around for generations to come.”
Other members of the Coral Zombie study include: A.R. Burnett, S. Griffin, L.A. May and Z. Moffitt of the NOAA NOS, M. Brandt from the University of the Virgin Islands, C.A. Downs from the Haereticus Environmental Laboratory, Z. Hillis-Starr from the National Park Service, K.S. Lunz of Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute and Z. Miller, A. Moulding, M. Nemeth and D. Williams of NOAA Fisheries.

Category: Residential Generation
In Peru, 30% of the population is without electricity and beyond the reach of a viable grid. To address this, the Peruvian government is embarking on an ambitions and unprecedented rural electrification program—the largest off-grid project on the planet, with some half million renewable energy systems planned. The first phase involves 175,000 homes and 3,000 community buildings, and will provide electricity to almost one million Peruvians.
The plan calls for three different solar powered energy centers: two higher capacity versions for clinics, schools and community centers, and a high-volume residential Energy Box sized for individual homes. This is a complete, self-contained turnkey energy solution consisting of a pole-mounted solar panel and enclosed, integrated charge controller/battery system feeding house wiring and lighting for a safe, home-friendly electricity source. This solar rural electrification project is being supplied and installed by Tozzi Green of Italy, who provides the systems at no cost to Peruvian homeowners through an arrangement with the government. Pennsylvania-based Morningstar Corporation is a partner in the project, manufacturing the charging system and enclosure.
The end users for this project had no previous experience with electricity or solar powered battery systems. In order to assist with user education of energy management, and maintain the desired battery life, Morningstar worked with Tozzi Green to develop software to optimize the daily energy usage, enough for two 10W lamps for 10 hours per day. When coupled with the LED battery gauge, the users can learn to better manage their available battery energy and prolong the system life. Future designs can be customized for user needs including data logging capabilities as well as the consumption based energy management. The ability to provide cell phone charging is a huge benefit.
To meet the five-year rural electrification goal, the Government of Peru imposed a tight delivery schedule. Morningstar completed the final design and manufacture of the first 2,300 custom units within 90 days of contract signing, and delivered the initial 50,000 units within six months.

Colossal Cave Adventure (also known as ADVENT, Colossal Cave, or Adventure) is a text adventure game, developed originally in 1976, by Will Crowther for the PDP-10 mainframe. The game was expanded upon in 1977, with help from Don Woods, and other programmers created variations on the game and ports to other systems in the following years.In the game, the player controls a character through simple text commands to explore a cave rumored to be filled with wealth. Players earn predetermined points for acquiring treasure and escaping the cave alive, with the goal to earn the maximum amount of points offered. The concept bore out from Crowther's background as a caving enthusiast, with the game's cave structured loosely around the Mammoth Cave system in Kentucky.Colossal Cave Adventure is the first known work of interactive fiction and, as the first text adventure game, is considered the precursor for the adventure game genre. Colossal Cave Adventure also contributed towards the role playing and roguelike genres.

Here’s an interesting way to have your eggs in the morning from the photographer Shannon Calvert who has produced this picture called Eggregation.
She made a mould using paperboard to create the shape of the world famous Yin Yang symbol and then placed two egg whites before cutting out the circle. The yolk was also placed in the pan.
Speaking about her idea, Calvert said: “Dichotomy is a tough concept to illustrate! The yin yang symbol encompasses the ideas of dark and light, good and evil, etc., but it's a total cliche by now. I wanted to do something different. I tried to think of things you separate, and when I thought of separating eggs it just clicked.”
NFTs have taken the digital realm by storm, with many of the crypto-assets being sold for astronomical fees. But how can restaurants and food professionals explore the possibilities of this new technology? FDL takes a look.

IT innovation can drive new revenue streams, provide flexibility and agility in a fast-paced competitive environment, and boost employee collaboration and productivity. However, for many businesses, maintaining – and growing – IT infrastructure can become a drain on resources, and in some case, a disaster waiting to happen. Downtime can impact revenue, reputation, customer experience, and ultimately put your business at risk.
So it is perhaps surprising that so few company owners have an accurate picture of how their IT infrastructure is performing. The only time they might become aware of it, is often when there is a problem – by which time it could be too late.
Network and infrastructure monitoring is therefore essential for optimising performance of your IT network, and detecting and avoiding IT events that could impact the business even before they occur. Done properly, it offers end-to-end visibility across the entire network, providing insight into potential faults, performance levels, capacity limits, latencies, security, and so on.
Investing in new technologies is always a risk for a business, so the ability to use network monitoring to manage and analyse new technologies in order to assess performance and detect faults is vital to protecting that investment and, ultimately, revenues. Being able to rapidly and successfully deploy new technologies and services could mean the difference between success and failure.
Monitoring can help to optimise network capacity by highlighting latencies, managing bandwidth for business-critical applications, and detecting bottlenecks and poor performance. In turn, this can boost productivity and performance.
It can also help to mitigate risk and ensure that performance metrics and SLAs are being met. Without the ability to continuously monitor your IT infrastructure any breach of SLAs, or poor customer experience, could have serious repercussions for the business, including financial penalties and loss of customer trust.
Conversely, being able to show that you can deliver new and unique services to customers by providing PKIs that show consistently excellent performance levels can enhance customer acquisition and retention.
Preventing business disruption is another essential benefit of network and infrastructure monitoring. Downtime impacts employee productivity, revenue, customer experience and loyalty, and organisational reputation. By proactively assessing and trouble-shooting the network on a continuous basis, organisations can avoid potential faults and problems before they become a threat to the business.
Finally, network monitoring can help to shape your entire IT strategy, by helping you to benchmark performance, and better understand the future IT requirements of your business.

Microsoft Azure is an open, secure and flexible cloud platform that allows businesses of any size to quickly build, deploy and manage solutions, which are then hosted on Microsoft’s global network of datacenters.
Azure is a growing collection of integrated cloud services – analytics, computing, database, disaster recovery, mobile, networking, storage and web – that offers integrated tools, pre-built templates and managed services to make it easier for developers and IT professionals to build and manage enterprise, mobile, web and Internet of Things (IoT) apps faster, using the skills they already have.
But the real benefit is gained by the business. By reducing infrastructure costs, IT resources, and by providing scalability, Azure offers SMEs the flexibility, agility, and enterprise-grade IT capabilities that would normally be out of their reach.
Using Azure as a cloud-based solution, can save capital expenditure and operational expenditure by removing the need for infrastructure investments, a significant benefit for SMEs with limited budget. It can also reduce space, power and electricity costs for maintaining racks of servers.
Furthermore, resources can be turned up or down almost immediately, so that not only can Azure grow with your business, it can also be upscaled and downscaled to meet peaks and troughs in demand on the fly.
A hosted Azure solution can also help to reduce the cost of hiring highly skilled, but expensive, IT professionals, as it can automate many of the basic processes required to build a software solution or app. In turn, mundane tasks such as storage backup, updating server firmware, maintaining OS and security patches are also removed, again reducing the human resources required for IT. At the same time, it can free up existing IT professionals to concentrate on creating solutions to help grow the company and meet strategic business goals.
Microsoft Azure can also bring a ‘stamp of credibility’ to many SMEs, who are often competing against much larger enterprises for business. Microsoft is a global brand, and has over 15 years’ experience of running extensive cloud-based networks.
Other benefits include 99.95 per cent monthly SLA guarantees so you’re your business can relax in the knowledge that your applications and services will be constantly available. In the event of an unexpected event, Azure also offers an affordable option for SMEs to implement business continuity and disaster recovery plans, which they probably could not otherwise afford.
Azure can also boost mobile productivity and collaboration through its Azure RemoteApp Service, which securely makes business applications available to remote employees, partners and customers.
What are you waiting for? If you would like to find out more about how Aztech IT can help your business make the most of Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, and other managed services, please visit us at www.aztechit.co.uk.
According to weather forecasters, this Winter could be one of the coldest for 50 years with predictions for several months of snow, due to the knock-on effect of the strongest El Nino event on record.
Whether those predictions transpire remains to be seen, but every Winter the UK’s lack of preparation leads to chaos on the transport network, with the ultimate effect that UK companies lose millions of pounds in business due to time wasted commuting or employees being unable to get into the office. For forward-thinking companies, however, the hours of time wasted trying to commute into the office in bad weather could be transformed into productive time spent working from home. The obvious solution is to prepare to allow your employees to work remotely from home through unified communications, and hosted or cloud-based productivity tools, such as Office 365.
However, many organisations are still failing to provide any kind of remote working for employees. According to CBI data, for example, 41 per cent of UK companies are yet to implement any kind of remote working technology, from VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) to hosted or cloud applications. The only requirement for employees stuck at home is an internet connection allowing access to remote working tools.
Office 365 as a cloud or hosted solution, for example, allows employees to collaborate, communicate, and share corporate data as if they were in the office. Likewise, UC tools, such as Skype for Business, enable audio and video conferences, meaning that no-one has to miss a meeting even if they are stuck at home due to bad weather.
Of course, many companies consider security to be a major threat to allowing remote access to corporate data. However, most hosted and cloud-based productivity solutions come with built-in security features that are often stronger than on-premise security protocols. Furthermore, contracts with hosted and cloud solution providers should be sealed by a tight set of SLAs and performance indicators, meaning that corporate apps and data are always available to home-working employees, regardless of the weather. Allowing remote working is not just about bad weather, of course, with multiple studies showing that employees are often more productive from home, are more satisfied with their work-life balance, and less likely to move to a competitor that does offer flexible working.
So why not visit www.aztechit.co.uk and find out how our collaboration and productivity services and solutions can not only help you to keep your company keep running productively and efficiently throughout Winter, but also throughout the rest of the year.

MILPITAS, Calif. (CBS.MW) -- Contract manufacturer Solectron provided Friday higher guidance for its fiscal-year 2001 sales but lowered its net earnings expectations, citing the potential impact of recently announced strategic deals.
Shares of the company fell 88 cents to close at $44.13.
Solectron SLR, +4.23% an electronics manufacturing services provider, expects to report full-year sales above $23 billion, ahead of the company's earlier guidance of $20 billion.
However, earnings expectations, including goodwill and other charges, now range from 99 cents to $1.02 per share for the fiscal year ending Sept. 30, 2001, down from the company's earlier guidance of $1.12 to $1.15, Solectron said.
Meanwhile, Solectron said cash earnings per share, which exclude goodwill amortization and other charges, will likely be in the range of $1.22 to $1.25, up from earlier guidance of $1.18 to $1.21. Analysts surveyed by First Call had been looking for the company to report a per-share profit of $1.18 for the full fiscal year, excluding goodwill.
Everyone knew the NatSteel acquisition would be dilutive, but "I don't think anyone really knew what the impact was going to be," said Tony Boase, an analyst at A.G. Edwards & Sons.
Some people may have expected the transaction to be dilutive to net EPS by 10 cents, although A.G. Edwards & Sons predicted a dilution of 15 cents, Boase said. Therefore "the latest earnings guidance may not have been within other people's expectations."
"The company basically confirmed our first pass analysis regarding the financial impact of the NatSteel acquisition," said Boase, who had pegged his expectations for revenue at $22.5 billion , with cash earnings per share at $1.23 including NatSteel.
"The one unknown is what Sony's contribution is," he added. "We may have actually had Sony is our numbers, but on a NatSteel basis, I still think it'll be neutral to cash EPS. I think Sony will actually be accretive to cash EPS."
Adjusting for deals
Solectron emphasized that the new forecasts are contingent on the completion of two recently announced transactions, which are expected to close in the fiscal 2001 second quarter. The deals reflect Solectron's strategy for building a leading position in the fast-growing "outsourcing" services market.
On Oct. 18, Solectron said it would acquire two manufacturing facilities from Sony Corp. SNE, -0.02% and would provide Sony with manufacturing and supply-chain services.
Earlier this week, the company announced its intention to acquire the Singapore-based firm NatSteel Electronics in a deal worth $2.4 billion. See full story.

This pudding delivers a double delight of caramel flavor -- first in the crunchy, candylike top, then in the pudding itself.
You can find curry paste and rice-paper wrappers at most Asian markets.
From the South, where nearly 80 percent of America's rice is grown, comes this combination of two regional favorites: rich, tomato-infused rice from Savannah, Georgia, and Crawfish etouffee from Louisiana.
Short- and medium-grain rices, which are stickier than long grain, create just the right texture to showcase the sweet-tart mixture of cherries and chicken.
Long, slow cooking is the key to producing the creamiest results in this classic Italian dish.
This homey, hearty combination is bound to become a family favorite.
Crisp vegetables serve as tiny containers for the flavored rice in this fresh spin on sushi. The wasabi used in the sauce is available as either a powder or paste in Asian markets or large supermarkets.
Lemon peel and juice add a subtle tang to the delicate flavor of jasmine rice. You will find jasmine rice in larger supermarkets, some Asian and Indian groceries, and health food and gourmet stores. Basil oil is sold in larger groceries and gourmet stores.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – Hundreds of people took part this afternoon in the 35th Greater Indianapolis CROP Hunger Walk.
Their main goal was to raise $100,000 to help end world hunger.
Reverend Brooks Barrick organized the walk. He told us his congregation at Olive Branch Christian Church serves about 250 families a month and says there’s such a great need locally for more help.
“Awareness about these issues is really important, not only giving of your time, spending time on this beautiful fall day walking, but also having yourself educated and having awareness of what this cause is in our world,” said Barrick.
Anyone can help by donating non-perishable food items at local food pantries or food banks or make a donation online.
Money raised at Sunday’s walk will be donated to local and global missions to help end hunger.

Fusion Power Could Be the Answer
Shouldn’t We Get On Board ITER?
Sometimes, it felt like the Bush administration believed blood-letting could purge a man of all evil humors and the universe revolved around the sun. At least government policies supporting scientific research seemed to reflect as much — that we were still stuck in an era where dogma rather than science drove progress.
So what a breath of fresh air it was to hear that the Obama administration was renewing funding for research on all stem cell lines, and that combating climate change would be a top priority. Obama even tapped Steven Chu, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, as his Secretary of Energy.
This is more than enough to convince me that the President understands that long-term solutions are required to ensure the United States has a safe, clean, and independent energy infrastructure. But if the Obama administration is truly committed to exploring a comprehensive set of options for ensuring that kind of energy future, fusion energy must be on that list.
I’m not Course XXII, so I won’t try to explain fusion energy myself. I did, however, recently visit the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center (PSFC), which describes fusion as “the energy source of the sun and other stars … a reaction process that converts matter into energy.”
Nuclear fusion differs from fission, the type of reaction that provides 14% of the world’s energy today, in several important ways. Fission relies on the principle that energy is released when heavy atomic nuclei are split apart, whereas fusion relies on the fusing of two hydrogen isotope nuclei (i.e. deuterium or tritium) to release energy.
Fusion yields far fewer radioactive byproducts, cannot be easily weaponized, and has the potential to produce large amounts of energy with cheap fuel. In the future, fusion power plants may even be used to dispose of the radioactive waste produced in fission plants. The PSFC claims fusion has “enormous potential as an energy source” and offers a “safe, virtually inexhaustible, long-term energy option with major environmental advantages.”
The problem is, it has thus far proven difficult, and expensive, to build fusion reactors. No current experimental reactor has yet provided a model for a viable energy source and all require large amounts of input energy to operate. Some even claim fusion can never be a viable, cost-effective energy source. Because of this, fusion research has received inconsistent or minimal funding.
So why choose fusion over fission? Nobody denies that modern fission plants are a highly efficient source of energy, are economical, and have much smaller environmental footprints than fossil fuel-based plants. But it is also clear that there is a powerful cultural and political stigma around fission plants — no matter how inaccurate that judgment may be.
For example, in 1998, the City of Cambridge voted by more than 2:1 to move MIT’s research nuclear reactor out of the city, despite the fact that it posed no threat to city residents. Just like fusion, fission plants have their own troubles to contend with. Fusion, however, may prove to be the road towards an efficient energy source that is politically and psychologically appealing to our government and our country.
The very nature of scientific progress suggests that current hurdles to creating a fusion plant may not last. Despite funding difficulties, fusion research has come a long way since pioneering experiments in the 1950s. And it’s impossible to predict what kind of advances in the fusion technology — and related fields — might allow us to build cheaper, more efficient, and viable fusion reactors. The enthusiasm for fusion at MIT and other research centers and its enormous promise as a safe, clean, and abundant source of energy make it impossible to ignore.
But ignored it has been by Congress. The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) — a large, multilateral project currently underway — is the world’s first step towards designing a functional, effective fusion power plant. Initially sponsored by the US, EU, India, Japan, China, Russia, and South Korea in 2006, ITER is targeted to begin operation in 2018.
However, in 2007, Congress included “$0 for the U.S. contribution to ITER,” formerly $610 million, in the 2008 budget and provided that “Funding may not be reprogrammed from other activities within Fusion Energy Science to restore the US contribution to ITER” (see HR 2764).
Although it is true that the United States still supports some domestic fusion research, the ITER project is not only an important step in fusion development beyond our projects at home, but it is also symbolic of the international need to cooperate to solve the energy crisis. Participation in ITER, therefore, is partially a matter of investing in a promising yet difficult challenge, but also an investment in our standing on the world stage.
Don’t take my word for it. Twenty leading fusion scientists, in a letter to the Bush administration in 2008, described ITER as “the pathway to the future of fusion energy.” “For the sake of the international and domestic fusion effort and for the sake of the US reputation in the international scientific community, we most respectfully urge that funding be provided for continued U.S. participation in ITER,” the letter stated. The letter was signed by MIT’s own Miklos Porkolab, professor of physics and director of the PSFC.
The letter may have been sent to President Bush, but Obama and today’s Congress should heed its words. Even if a fusion power plant may seem like an economic or physical impossibility today, the promise of a brighter energy future is well worth the risk of failure. In fact, I’d say any promise for a brighter energy future is well worth 0.4 percent of AIG’s bailout money.

Ryan Blaney is going out this season for the Most Popular driver award. The Team Penske driver who failed to secure a single official race win this year is one of the top 10 drivers running for the prize. He and cup champion Joey Logano will be hoping to halt the run of HMS driver Chase Elliott, who is hoping for his fifth consecutive award.
Ryan Blaney has come up with short video ad campaigns attacking Elliott on some silly thing to gather support for him. His hilarious ads have been successful in accumulating attention toward Blaney’s cause. So far has released three videos, the latest of which has taken it to the next level.
In the latest video posted on his social media, Ryan Blaney claims that Chase Elliott doesn’t even like Chicken wings and is too extreme for NASCAR. Hooter, one of the prominent restaurant chains in the USA and the 2022 Regular season champions, was not impressed by Blaney’s attack.
“Hootie,” the Twitter handle of Hooters mascot commented on the latest video of Blaney. “And now I’m warning you, Blaney,” Hootie commented. Chicken Wings are one of the best sellers in their restaurant, so it’s no surprise that they didn’t like Blaney’s claim that their brand ambassador doesn’t even like it.
Ryan Blaney has already released two comical ad campaigns
The 2022 All-Star Race winner released a hilarious video slamming Elliott on Nov 16. “NASCAR’s most popular driver Chase Elliott uses a fork and knife to eat his wings. Not Ryan Blaney. He uses his hands. This election season, vote for a man willing to get a little dirty,” was the message from the video.
He then released a second video where he called Elliott Mr. Fork and Knife and suggested that the 2020 cup champion can handle the heat of parmesan garlic. He then demanded that the fans vote for someone like him who could take the heat.
The odds of Blaney pulling a massive upset on Chase Elliott are less. He has stiff competition from his teammate Joey Logano who won the 2022 cup championship. Elliott is hoping for a 5th consecutive win. He will also be looking at the possibilities equalling the records of his father, Bill Elliott, who is a 16-time winner of the prestigious NASCAR award.

Earlier this week, she also penned an op-ed for The Talkhouse about her experience as an Asian American in the music industry (LINK). Her fall tour, which kicks off this Friday Oct. 7th with a headlining show at Brooklyn Night Bazaar, includes dates in Boston, Philadelphia, Toronto and more (full schedule below). ?For ticket information, click onto http://kayeofficial.com/
The ‘Honey’ EP is out now worldwide via Votiv: http://smarturl.it/KAYEHoney
The “Honey” official video — a shot-for-shot recreation of Spike Jonze’s 1994 music video for Weezer’s “The Sweater Song” that premiered viaThe AV Club – can be seen here: http://vevo.ly/DY5Bak
?The ?UUU? official video that premiered via ELLE.com can be seen here: http://vevo.ly/8MPj4b
?The ‘Honey’ EP– demoed on KAYE’s laptop while on tours with San Fermin — is a five-song introduction to the next phase in her evolution as a songwriter and powerhouse singer. The EP is a palette of polarities, reflecting the taste of a musician who was once equally as obsessed with Destiny’s Child as she was with Nine Inch Nails. “Honey? is a fierce self-love anthem featuring scuzzy guitars and doo-wop harmonies, while “UUU” employs grunge bass flecked with the skittery percussion of 80s-era Janet Jackson. Standout opener “Armies” features KAYE’s acrobatic voice detailing manipulative emotional warfare as cause of a crumbling relationship. There are worlds to explore within each song, and it’s only the beginning.
?KAYE Tour Dates:
10/07 – Brooklyn, NY @ Brooklyn Night Bazaar
11/28 – Boston, MA @ Brighton Music Hall^
11/30 – Philadelphia, PA – The Foundry^
12/01 – Albany, NY @ Lucky Strike Social^

* with The Moth and the Flame
“Impressive? – Billboard
?She sings beautifully.. [her] varying sensibilities combine wonderfully? grungy bass, the ?80s dance pop of Paula Abdul, and intricate percussion.? – Stereogum
“One of the finest examples of indie pop” – Consequence of Sound
?[?Honey?] infuses her infectious pop sound with glam, indie, dance, and R&B, layering it all together with introspective lyrics.? – She Shreds
“Straight up awesome pop? great music and a wonderful vocal performance.” – Ghettoblaster
Apple Music?s ?Best of the Week?
Spotify?s ?New Music Friday?
Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, KAYE spent her childhood all over the globe, relocating to Singapore, Hong Kong, Arizona and Michigan all before she turned 18. Growing up in the suburbs of Phoenix, she became a full-fledged music obsessive, playing classical piano and teaching herself punk songs on her mother’s nylon string guitar. Upon moving to New York, KAYE began playing bass and guitar in a few groups, where a mutual friend connected her with San Fermin’s Ellis Ludwig-Leone. Impressed, Ludwig-Leone invited her to be San Fermin’s new lead female vocalist as part of a European tour, leading to a long-term relationship, including a collaboration on their most recent album, ‘Jackrabbit’ (Downtown).
As frontwoman, Charlene Kaye has played network television, major festivals like Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits, and many sold-out shows. Tours with St. Vincent, Arctic Monkeys, and alt-J, among others, have earned her rave reviews from the likes of Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal and more.

Umno A Racist Party?
I have been reading far too many comments on the internet stating that Umno is a racist party. Is it really so? Is Umno a racist party?
What about MCA or Gerakan? Don’t we ever forget how the Gerakan governs Penang. Just look at how the Gerakan treats the Malays there. Slowly but surely, the Malays are being sidelined or marginalized socially and economically!
Then look at the MCA. See how MCA ministers manipulate issues to benefit them. Check how Chua Soi Lek and his MCA-backed company monopolizes the production of methadone – the pill to reduce heroin and morphine addiction.
Any medical doctor in the Klang Valley can verify this story. They will tell you which company produces methadone in Malaysia. Is it not MCA-backed company?
The sad part is that addicts who want to get away from morphine or heroin addiction are now hooked on methadone.
What is this? Is it not MCA’s doing to reap the addicts’ money through legalizing another drug called methadone?
Then you see Foong Chan Onn. He has created so many business opportunities for his MCA croonies under the pretext of having a prudent labor management in the country. You think this is not a racist move?
Well, well, well!!! What are you going to call these MCA’s racists? Chow-kows? Are they not chow-kows? Yes, they are racists. They are suckers!!!
I also suspect some non-Malaysians too are making comments on the nets that Umno is a racist party. Don’t you ever think that some of our local netsphere are being infested by kiasus chow-kows?
You know kiasus? To the hokkiens say, kiasu means persons who can’t see other people to grow and prosper.
When these individuals adopt the kiasu mentality, they also become kiasi – i.e. people who are scared to die. So, they will do anything - anything at all - in order to survive.
Sad still is that our current leadership is so buddy-buddy with these kiasus and kiasis. They are given so much face. So much to extend they are being given the southern part of Johore to become their economic playground.
So, are the Umno racists really racists when they are willingly handing over part of their independent and sovereign motherland to the kiasus and kiasis?
You tell me.. Is Umno a racist party?

Computational Social Science
WILEY Interdisciplinary Reviews: Computational Statistics, Vol. 2, No. 3, pp. 259-271, May/June 2010
13 Pages Posted: 14 Nov 2010
Date Written: November 12, 2010
The social sciences investigate human and social dynamics and organization at all levels of analysis (consilience), including cognition, decision making, behavior, groups, organizations, societies, and the world system. Computational social science is the integrated, interdisciplinary pursuit of social inquiry with emphasis on information processing and through the medium of advanced computation. Themain computational social science areas are automated information extraction systems, social network analysis, social geographic information systems (GIS), complexity modeling, and social simulation models. Just like Galileo exploited the telescope as the key instrument for observing and gaining a deeper and empirically truthful understanding of the physical universe, computational social scientists are learning to exploit the advanced and increasingly powerful instruments of computation to see beyond the visible spectrum of more traditional disciplinary analyses.
Keywords: computational social science, agent-based modeling, social network analysis, social computing, social complexity, automated information extraction, text and data mining

I found this really helpful in understanding Bogost after reading his Alien Phenomenology, Or What It’s Like to be a Thing.
PBS’s How is everything interconnected was also helpful in explaining it in very simple terms. I like that it also went into radical empathy! Radical empathy for all things - feel for things even when we are inundated with things. If we are connected then radical empathy is useful to correct the way we have treated other groups of ppl, other species, nature, things.
Yes, the whole idea behind building these anthropomorphized objects that make sounds and act like a living system is to create an opportunity to look at objects - new objects - closely (the way we don’t look at familiar objects anymore because we have become desensitized by their quantity), to learn what they are, to use them to one’s satisfaction while reflecting on how one relates to other things and species. In a way, I’m creating in physical space what Bogost creates in virtual spaces. Or at least that’s the goal.
If stopping to pay attention and be delighted can help, then let’s keep making these exercises and make radical empathy a practice that our culture can benefit from, especially in the current rise of fascism and the continual decline of biodiversity.
Here is the full Atlantic Article about the game Everything, which the PBS program mentioned above goes into.
Characteristics of the Everything video game that overlap with my project:
Enjoyment in structured constraint
Observe, learn what they are make use of them in gratifying ways
Think with things and as them

Rather than considering the relationship between the three branches of government in the abstract, Beatty focuses on legal practice as it functions in labour law, and shows how the Charter could be used both to reform labour law and to protect against attempts to reverse gains made in labour legislation in the past. Beatty's critical analysis rests on two principles: that the Charter provides equal liberty for all workers to participate in determining the conditions that govern their working life, and that fundamental rights should be limited only by laws employing the least repressibe alternative. These principles are applied to the constitutional validity of rules that prohibit discrimination: those requiring payment of minimum wages, excluding groups from collective bargaining laws, mandating retirment at a specific age, and requiring membership in trade unions. Beatty argues that the current model of collective bargaining cannot be constitutionally sustained and that voluntary and/or plural representation of employee interests is more compatible with the Charter.

Deepwater Production TTR Design Event: Deepwater Production TTR Design Date: June 2014 Author: A. Blaquiere, D. Reagan, R. Thethi As the majority of “easy access” reservoirs have been discovered, deep water exploration and production is at the forefront of the Oil & Gas industry. Operators have utilized Top Tensioned Riser (TTR) systems in deepwater on Spar and TLP platforms and are now well established in the US Gulf of Mexico (GoM), West Africa and Asia. However, new reservoirs, particularly in the US Gulf, will be discovered in ultra-deep water (~10,000 ft) with high pressure (HP) (>15 ksi) and high temperature (HT) (>284 ºF). In such conditions, the criticality and complexity of a production TTR system is significantly increased. This paper addresses key design issues and considerations including wall thickness sizing, material selection, manufacturing capabilities, interface management and qualification testing.

Hello, I’m David Saint-Jacques, Canadian Space Agency astronaut. Welcome aboard the International Space Station! The Station is an orbiting laboratory where we conduct hundreds of science experiments and constantly test new technologies. Our research advances space exploration, helps astronauts, and improves life on Earth. For health experiments, we use many types of complex equipment, like heart monitors and activity sensors. Sometimes they can be tricky to put on, interfere
with our movements and take up a lot of our time. Good news: the Canadian Space Agency is leading the way to simplify the process. The Bio-Monitor system is a one-stop-shop for tracking what’s going on with our bodies, and it’s the only tool of its kind in space. And I’m the first one to test it! The shirt has sensors that keep a close eye on our vital signs around the clock. They measure things like: heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, skin temperature, physical activity, even the amount of oxygen in our blood. All that data can be quickly sent back to scientists on Earth. And the benefits aren’t limited to space. Similar technology could eventually be used to monitor patients in remote communities, or athletes, or workers in dangerous environments. The Bio-Monitor is a remarkable new Canadian technology with an 80s twist. Bye bye!

Dir. Robert Oppel, 2010
USA, 78 min.
ONE NIGHT ONLY! WITH RUMI MISSABU IN PERSON!
FRIDAY, APRIL 25 – 8:00 PM
Rumi Missabu of the Cockettes returns to the east coast with a handful of new short features and the full-length documentary Uncle Bob. Produced by Rumi and Abel Ferrara, Uncle Bob is an examination of photographer and gay rights activist Robert Opel as directed by his nephew Robert Oppel (Opel dropped a p from his last name to protect his family). Best known among trivia buffs for streaking during the 1974 Academy Awards show, Uncle Bob examines Opel’s involvement in the San Francisco art scene (he ran a gallery called Fey-Way, produced stage plays with Divine and became friends with Robert Mappelthorpe and Tom of Finland, all of whom are interviewed in the film), his struggle for gay rights (particularly the rights of gay teachers) and his murder during an alleged robbery of his gallery. Robert Oppel investigates multiple scenarios surrounding his uncle’s murder, and by examining both his death and his life, succeeds at providing a glimpse into both his uncle’s life and the climate of San Francisco during the seventies.
SCREENING WITH THE FOLLOWING SHORT FILMS:
* TIP-TOE PAST THE WITCH (work in progress currently in production) from director/animator Kimba Anderson. Running time approx 3-5 minutes
* RUMINATIONS (work in progress currently in production) from director Robert James and Thedore Nguyen. Running time approx 3-5 minutes
* I SCARE MYSELF (music video) co-directed by Rumi Missabu and Mister WA. Running time approx 5 minutes

” TOKYO — Three hundred tons of highly contaminated water has leaked from a storage tank at the ravaged Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant on Japan’s Pacific coast, its operator said Tuesday, prompting regulators to declare a “radiological release incident” for the first time since disaster struck there in 2011 and adding new fears of environmental calamity.
Workers raced to place sandbags around the leaking tank to stem the spread of the water, contaminated by levels of radioactive cesium and strontium many hundreds of times as high as legal safety limits, according to the operator, Tokyo Electric Power, or Tepco. The task was made more urgent by a forecast of heavy rain for the region.
But a Tepco spokesman, Masayuki Ono, acknowledged that much of the contaminated water had seeped into the soil, which would have to be dug up and removed. And he said the tainted water could eventually reach the ocean, adding to the tons of radioactive fluids that have already leaked into the sea from the plant. … “

FOOL FOR LOVE
Ciotta is a master of the fun-to-read romance, and this outing is no exception. She crafts a lovely Vermont town, filled with a charming extended family and lead characters who are genuinely good people with the best of intentions. Readers can snuggle up with the comfort of knowing that these characters will learn from the past and get it together for the future.
Chloe made a commitment in New York — to culinary school and to a serious relationship — only to be kicked to the curb just as she graduated. So she follows up on a job offer in a Vermont tourist town as a personal chef and companion. Soon, she’s charmed by the client, the town and even the uptight grandson who greets her so suspiciously. Devlin has always been the responsible one in his extended family. How could he be so attracted to a flighty gold digger taking advantage of his grandmother — even if she is sweet, lovely and his grandma likes her? And how can his grandmother’s Cupcake Lovers Club cause fistfights? The whole situation seems like a recipe for disaster. Or is it? (ST. MARTIN’S, Sep., 400 pp., $7.99)

Research Analyst Samuel Hickey wrote an op-ed in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists on how the JCPOA could set a new gold standard for ensuring civilian nuclear programs do not pose proliferation threats.
“An underexamined success story from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal negotiations is the effective blocking of Tehran’s ability to collect plutonium for a nuclear bomb. Not only has the nuclear deal, known officially as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), been effective in constraining Iran’s program, but it could, suitably adapted, provide a standard of guidance for research reactor construction that would lower proliferation risks worldwide.
There are two pathways to get the fissile material to fuel a nuclear bomb. The first is to enrich uranium, and the second is to recover plutonium from the spent fuel of a reactor. The JCPOA blocked both pathways. Now, Iran’s advancing enrichment program is the key obstacle for diplomats trying to revive the deal, and those talks have dragged on for months as the program marches forward.
Many nuclear weapons, including that used on Hiroshima, are uranium-based. However, every country that has a nuclear weapon has produced and separated plutonium for weapons. Iran has not reopened this path despite efforts by its conservative-dominated parliament to pressure the United States to lift sanctions in return for nuclear deal compliance. In December 2020, Iran passed a nuclear law requiring a return to a threatening research reactor design. So far, Iran has not adhered to that law because the modifications made to the original design under the JCPOA made the reactor even more efficient. This suggests that even in its weakened state, the JCPOA continues to provide permanent solutions to potential proliferation concerns. Its revival can further cement these gains as a ‘longer and stronger’ deal is sought.” Read more

The metal detectable operating parts are made from a EU10/2011 and FDA conform plastic granulate.
Due to special additives to the plastic granulate, it is possible for metal detectors (induction technology) to detect plastic particles from a size of 0.027 cm³ (3x3x3 mm). This means that in sensitive production sectors, e.g. foodstuff processing, plastic fragments of metal detectable operating parts can be identified and the risk of production downtimes or complaints are significantly reduced.
The metal detectable additive can lead to partial colour variations in the plastic surface.Screw-on dimension "A" applies after grip assembly. In the unassembled state it may deviate through flexural stress by deforming.

HA NOI — During a visit to Mexico last week, Nguyen Thi Kim Ngan, Vietnamese National Assembly Vice Chairwoman, met with Senator Alberto Anaya Gutierrez, General Secretary of the Mexican Labour Party, to review the friendship between the two countries.
Gutierrez suggested Viet Nam and Mexico consider negotiating the signing of a Free Trade Agreement which he believed would help tighten the ties between the two countries.
While reviewing achievements of agricultural co-operation projects between the two countries, he also said that some Mexican States, including Sinaloa, Guerrero and Baja California Sur, wished to learn from Viet Nam's experiences in seafood farming and breeding.
With regard to the East Sea conflict, Gutierrez reaffirmed his support for Viet Nam's position on the issue.
Later in Ha Noi yesterday, General Nguyen Van Rinh, chairman of the Viet Nam Association of Agent Orange/Dioxin Victims, received 120 wheelchairs donated by Gutierrez and a group of Mexican senators and members of the Labour Party. — VNS

Welcome again to another Madala Wellbore Wednesdays. After five articles on extended-reach SAGD wells, we thought we’d look at something entirely different using our PVT engine. Back in 2018, Equinor released their whole dataset for the #Volve field in the North Sea. The data set is here:
This is probably the most comprehensive data set released so far in the industry. In the last few years, a variety of people and organizations have made their own analyses and simulations based on the data. Madala doesn’t just do thermal heavy oil, we also do conventional and unconventional production, so we thought we’d start building our library of demonstration systems with some conventional offshore data.
There’s a good overview of the Black-Oil properties of the Volve PVT data here:
We took the most recent lab analysis from the report: “PVT Analysis of MDT oil samples, May 2008, Well 15/9-F-4” and built the lab assay in our PVT engine. We’re going to build well models based on this assay in the near future. The PVT report has a complete suite of separation, expansion and viscosity analyses. Our first basic analysis is to synthesize the plus fraction based on the lab data, input the corrected reservoir composition and try to duplicate the single-stage separation test at stock-tank conditions.
The plus fraction is provided in Table 4.3.7 of the report:
We synthesized each component from hexanes to C36 based on the MW and standard density. Then we took the recombined assay from the report and simulated a single-stage separation:
We haven’t done any tuning or deep analysis, this was plus component synthesis, set a composition and flash to stock-tank conditions. The values are pretty close, although the oil density is a bit high. For a first pass this is decent. Our bubble-point pressure is out, the lab measured 107 C and 213 bar and we calculated 239 bar, so there’s some tuning required. We also ran a phase envelope:
Next time we’ll start simulation the well performance, based on the as-drilled completion data and this assay, plus water cuts.
In the meantime, if you’d like to learn more about our PVT capabilities, please reach out to Stan Cena, Raj Bal or Damien Hocking for more information. We ran this synthesis on a small, 5 watt ARM #IoTmachine, which could be deployed almost anywhere.

It's been 10 days since the Red Sox made their initial offer to Scott Boras regarding Daisuke Matsuzaka, and they have yet to receive a response.
"[F]rustrated Sox officials were privately wondering whether the player was aware that Boras so far had not made a counter-offer." ... 10 days is 1/3 of the total negotiating window. Weekend talks between the Sox and Boras were "limited and unproductive". I'll bet.
Edes held an online chat today. Two points of interest: Boras told Japanese reporters that Matsuzaka would meet with the media tonight. And DM will take part in the negotiations on Tuesday and Wednesday.
One GM: "From the looks of it, [Boston's] only chance may be if [Matsuzaka] stands up to Boras."
That implies that Boras is going against the wishes of his client. I don't believe that is happening. Boras and DM likely worked out a strategy and they know nothing will happen until the final day or so. Matsuzaka wants to pitch in the US in 2007 and he has the final say on accepting a contract. On Thursday morning, he'll be holding up a #18 Red Sox jersey.
SoSHer Doug Beerabelli: "This is one of those situations where it'd be best as a fan to go for a three or four day hike in the mountains with no access to electronic media, and find out the news when you come off the mountain four days later."
That is probably the sane approach, though not many of us (any?) will do it.
J.D. Drew and Julio Lugo are in Boston today for their physicals.

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk on Thursday said that Starship‘s first launch attempt will be at the end of the third week of April.What Happened: SpaceX will be ready to launch in a few weeks, Elon Musk said in a Twitter reply. Once SpaceX is ready, Starship will need FAA license approval to undertake its first launch attempt.“Assuming that takes a few weeks, [the] first launch attempt will be near [the] end of [the] third week of April, aka …,” Musk responded to a tweet.Some Twitter users interpreted Musk’s unfinished sentence as April 20, which when written as a date would be “4/20,” possibly referring to the unofficial holiday celebrated by marijuana users.
The next Falcon Heavy will launch the ViaSat 3 communication satellite from pad 39A on April 8 at 6:25 p.m. EDT (note that there will not be any landings to see with this mission).

New research support the notion that religious faith is a neurological imperative of being human.
a new study shows through functional MRI scans that such religious and spiritual experiences can be rewarding to your brain.
They activate the same reward systems between your ears as do feelings of love, being moved by music and even doing drugs, according to the study, which was published in the journal Social Neuroscience on Tuesday.
“These are areas of the brain that seem like they should be involved in religious and spiritual experience. But yet, religious neuroscience is such a young field — and there are very few studies — and ours was the first study that showed activation of the nucleus accumbens, an area of the brain that processes reward,” said Dr. Jeffrey Anderson, a neuroradiologist at the University of Utah and lead author of the study.

According to a recent census, the vast majority of Clareview real estate consists of units in apartment buildings, so if you're a first-time homebuyer, a young upstart family, or looking to downsize, this is the neighbourhood for you.
Clareview condos for sale are appealing to many potential buyers because they're both modern and spacious. Most of the buildings in the neighbourhood are newer than in other parts of Edmonton, so they have a clean, contemporary look on both the exterior and interior. However, those who enjoy a quieter atmosphere will be pleased to know that Clareview consists of mostly low-rise buildings. The units inside are, for the most part, around 1,000 square feet with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, along with gorgeous modern flooring and stainless steel appliances, but they're very affordable given the space and luxuries. Prices of these condos start at just above $160,000.
Despite Clareview not having quite the supply of single-family residential homes as other Edmonton neighbourhoods, there are still plenty of attractive options for those wanting their own house or townhouse. Most of these homes are nestled in the peaceful subdivisions near 36 Street NW and are newer than the single-family homes in many other neighbourhoods. This give the homes a more modern look with spacious interiors. The properties also have plenty of green space nearby—which ranges from sports fields to scenic walking paths to Hairsine Park—adding a pleasant view and several recreational opportunities.
Amenities Near Clareview Real Estate
Perhaps the part about Clareview homes for sale is almost all the amenities you'll ever need are right near your doorstep. First and foremost, the Clareview Town Centre Shopping Mall and the area nearby has an abundance of brand name stores, including Costco, Home Depot, Real Canadian Superstore, Best Buy, and much more.
There are also several restaurants and pubs in the area, as well as several cinemas, two schools nearby (John D. Bracco School and Kirkness School), a public library, and Clareview Community Recreation Centre.
Of course, if you need to access other parts of Edmonton and you can't drive, the Clareview LRT station is also just a short walk away.

We've been training marine naturalists since 1994.
Our marine naturalist training course (MNTP) is an intensive 6-day overview of the natural history of the San Juan Islands and the marine waters of Washington and Southern British Columbia (known as the Salish Sea). This course includes an in-depth treatment of the ecology and conservation of local marine species, presented by highly trained local naturalists, environmental educators, and scientists. The upcoming summer session will be a dynamic, high-quality virtual experience that leaves graduates qualified as a regional professional or volunteer naturalist.
Come Interested, Leave Qualified
We are virtual for Summer 2022. You can still earn The Whale Museum naturalist certification by completing an extra 10-hour practicum, which can be arranged during the course. Completion also entitles you to become a member of the Salish Sea Association of Marine Naturalists (SSAMN). Clock hour credits are also available.
August 2022, Marine Naturalist Teachers' Program: A special virtual session for current teachers will be offered for FREE in late August. Registration is open now. Our thanks to NOAA for making this program possible and free for teachers. For more information, download the flyer.
What to Expect for the special Marine Naturalist Teachers' Program
Lectures and site visits will take place virtually through pre-recorded and webinar/videoconferencing platforms Whova. A full schedule with log-on information will be provided to registered students. The main focus of the training is the ecology, current status and conservation of Southern Resident Killer Whales and other local marine species as well as discussions about the environments they live in. The course includes presentations on cetaceans, pinnipeds, otters, intertidal invertebrates, seabirds, and a variety of other topics such as geology and marine conservation. Faculty includes Whale Museum staff, professional naturalists, marine scientists, and environmental educators active in the region. There are no live/in-person requirements for this program. As all presentations are recorded, they can be watched at your leisure. Recordings will be accessible by registered Teacher-participants begining August 22 and will be available for up to 6 months.

LEWIS Hamilton is all revved up over stunning model Florence Mueller — a dead ringer for his ex-girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger.
The Formula 1 champ, 35, was pictured last week enjoying a yacht trip with a woman in Corsica, who The Sun can reveal is Florence.
Lewis, who dated Nicole, 42, for seven years until their split in 2015, has liked a series of her photos on Instagram.
However, sources close to Lewis insist they are not a couple.
An insider said: “Lewis and Florence aren’t dating, they’re just good mates.
“She joined him on the boat as part of a group of pals with Lewis.
“They get on but there’s nothing romantic going on between them at the moment.”
He had been holidaying aboard Sir Philip Green’s yacht Lionheart in Calvi, Corsica with Florence and their friends.
But they were photographed leaving the boat to board a helicopter.
He flew to Italy and today took part in the Tuscan Grand Prix.

My hiatus meant there were fewer votes in this month's poll. It also meant that one cult-favorite game series rose above the rest to earn a spot on my play list. Here are the results from November:
It appears as though the fervor around Metal Gear Solid 5's release hasn't been enough to satiate you Kojima fans! Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, the more action-oriented game from Platinum, will soon be underway by yours truly. I'm a casual Metal Gear fan and an even more casual fan of action games in the style of Devil May Cry or Bayonetta, so I'm curious to see how this one will turn out.
As always, I've created a new poll with new options, allowing you to pick between a new crop of game: Choose between Doom 3: BFG Edition, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, or S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl!
As always, thanks for voting!

The Histadrut’s house of representatives, the upper body of the General Federation of Labor in Israel, last week approved a general labor dispute following a deadlock in negotiations with the Ministry of Finance over collective long-term care insurance.
By declaring a labor dispute the Histadrut can call for a general strike in a number of institutions and bodies, almost all of them in the public sector, following a 14-day cooling-off period. If a strike is in fact declared, just prior to the date it is to begin the coordination and operations committee of the Histadrut’s union section will convene and publish a list of the agencies to be affected. The list is expected to include Ben-Gurion Airport, Israel Railways, the ports, government ministries, universities, municipalities, etc. The Physicians Union and Teacher’s Union also adopted a similarly decision on this working-class issue.
The Histadrut is taking this measure in response to the decision by the Ministry of Finance, specifically that of the Supervisor of Capital Markets, Insurance, and Savings, Dorit Salinger, to implement a neo-liberal reform. Under this reform, the only long-term care insurance policies to be marketed in the future will be for individuals, eliminating collective policies which until now have offered cheaper terms. The Histadrut is demanding a solution not only for holders of collective long-term care insurance policies, but the formulation of a solution involving state-sponsored long-term care insurance.

Sasivekalu Ganesha Temple, Hampi, is a giant monolithic statue of Lord Ganesha. It is one of the popular attractions in Hampi. The statue is 2.4 metres (8 feet) tall. The shrine is located on the southern foothill of the Hemakuta Hill.
The history of the statue of Sasivekalu Ganesha dates back to the 16th century. According to an inscription found near the statue, the pavilion that houses the statue was built in 1506 AD. It was constructed by a merchant from Chandragiri (a place in present day Andhra Pradesh) in memory of the then king of Vijayanagara, Narasimha II.

Can you believe December is already here? Are you ready for it? If you celebrate Christmas, you’d better make sure Santa will easily be able to make his way down and up your chimney on Christmas Eve. What about your teeth? When was the last time you got those cleaned professionally? Sometimes these cleaning dates and the frequency of them are hard to remember. Before the end of the year, it’s important to make sure you’ve taken care of all of your dental needs, including a routine professional dental check-up and cleaning.
Most dental insurance policies will cover two cleanings per year. Few people actually take advantage of this benefit. If you have good oral hygiene habit and a healthy mouth, your dentist and dental hygienist will probably suggest professional teeth cleaning at least twice per year.
Not only do you need daily brushing habits, it is also important to have your teeth professionally cleaned. During these cleanings your dentist and hygienist will help remove hard deposits on your teeth that daily brushing cannot remove. This also helps prevent gum disease. You should have your teeth professionally cleaned twice each year. If your teeth have specific problems, or your dentist has specific concerns you may need to see your dentist more often. During these exams your dentist can also spot potentially damaging and harmful teeth and mouth issues that you may not have known you were experiencing.
Schedule your professional dental cleaning at Mansouri Family Dental Care & Associates before the end of the year.

Place of origin
.425 Westley Richards Semi-rimmed Magnum
The .425 Westley Richards Magnum is one of the classic African big-game rounds. It is a cartridge invented by Leslie Taylor of Westley Richards, a gunmaking firm of Birmingham England in 1909 as a proprietary cartridge for their bolt action rifles. Often referred to as the "Poor Man's Magnum" the round has the unusual characteristic of having a rebated rim, one that is smaller in diameter than the case body. This allowed it to be used in converted Mauser 98 magazine rifles with a standard (.30-06 size) magazine length and bolt face.

HERAKLIO, Greece -- The symbolism is too obvious to overstate. Mia Hamm, the iconic star of the U.S. women's soccer team, ran down the right wing, hanging onto the ball. Heather O'Reilly, who not long ago was one of the thousands of kids with posters of Hamm on her wall, ran toward the goal.
Hamm, now 32, has been in this situation countless time with dozens of different women on the other end, so she did what comes naturally. She laced a pass to O'Reilly -- from the foundation to the future -- and the 19-year-old shot the ball into the net, the goal that gave the United States a 2-1 overtime victory over Germany Monday evening at Pankritio Stadium, putting the Americans one victory from an Olympic gold medal.
The goal and the victory said so much about this team, which -- after Thursday's gold-medal game against Brazil in Athens -- will be bequeathed by veteran players such as Hamm who built the sport to prominence, to players such as O'Reilly, who grew up admiring them.
The U.S. women overcame the loss of captain Julie Foudy, who left in the 65th minute and departed the stadium on crutches, her right ankle tightly wrapped.
They overcame a game-tying goal from Germany's Isabell Bachor in the second minute of injury time, a tally that could have been demoralizing.
And they overcame the memory of their previous game against Germany, a 3-0 loss in the semifinals of the women's World Cup last fall. For more than six months, the Americans have trained together to put that loss behind them.
In the moments before the game, Coach April Heinrichs -- for the first time -- felt it necessary to bring up the women who have been together since the first women's World Cup, back in 1991. She reminded Abby Wambach, Shannon Boxx, Lindsay Tarpley, O'Reilly and others not to let down Foudy, Hamm, Joy Fawcett, Brandi Chastain and Kristine Lilly.
Fawcett, Foudy and Hamm have said they plan to retire from international competition after the Games.
"She doesn't even have to say it," O'Reilly said. "It's in our minds all the time."
Thus, the pass from Hamm to O'Reilly shows everything anybody needs to know about this team. It doesn't matter who gets it done, just that it happens. The team's motto has become, "It's not every four years. It's every day."

· Halloween Bad Girl
I am trying to locate a hot wire styrofoam cutter. If you know where I can purchase a hand held unit, please let me know.
I have a hot wire cutter from HL and I think its works fine....if its too hot it will make a bad cut.Most of the time I just use a box cutter to sculpt my styrofoam, but I've been trying to do some research on good styrofoam hot-wire cutters.
The two that I have currently are very cheap and not very reliable. One is a $5 cutter that requires two "D" batteries to heat the wire. It's not bad for short bursts through thin sheets, but it runs through batteries pretty quick. The other is a cheap Michaels find hot-wire "wand" cutter. It worked pretty good -- until it broke the same afternoon I bought it!
I think the main problem with both of these cutters is they don't get hot enough.
I have found a cutter on eBay for $30 that claims to run at a cutting temperature of 428° F. I know this may be a stupid question, but is that a good temp for styrofoam cutting?
I know my wood burning iron runs at about 750° F and that's probably too hot for finer wire cutting.
My suggestion, for the best price and best results, would be to build the Garage-of-Evil styrofoam hot-wire table. Purchasing the parts isn't too expensive, but being able to push sheets of styrofoam across a flat table to be cut by a perfectly verticle wire is definitely going to help you with those straight cuts. I realize it's not the perfect tool for everything, but the concept of the wire heating element can be adapted to a handheld tool as well.I cut a lot of styrofoam, at different angles and using different sizes. I do want something that is going to last for some time. again I pretty hard on my equipment, I don't need one more thing I have to baby, because I have to hurry and get the job done.
Currently I am using a knife to cut through the styrofoam, and on my pink foam it is leaving very rough ends, which are not a straight cut. I am getting frustrated having to go back and repair the damaged areas.
Keep the ideas coming.

Water everywhere, resulting in social upheaval, anarchy, and political confusion
Type of Spiritual Experience
HERBERT B. GREENHOUSE was born in Chicago, educated at Northwestern University and the University of Southern California, and served in the Army during World War II. He worked as an advertising copywriter, a playwright for stage, radio, and television, and was also a pianist and composer. An avid investigator of psychic phenomena, Mr. Greenhouse was a member of the American Society for Psychical Research and participated in many ESP laboratory experiments. He was also the author of In Defense of Ghosts, Thoughts of the Imitation of Christ, and How to Double Your Vocabulary. He lived in New Jersey and had a retreat in the Berkshires.
This prophecy is intriguing as it was made well before 1971 when Greenhouse wrote the book and well before we knew about the effects of climate change, although some scientists might have been working on this possibility, as such the person who recorded this may have been tapping into the realm of science or have been a scientist speculating - so not a prophecy at all!
A description of the experience
Premonitions: A leap in to the future – Herbert Greenhouse
From the Central Premonitions Registry of the American SPR
Starting with 1972-73 it will be a crucial year for the U.S.A. Water everywhere, resulting in social upheaval, anarchy, and political confusion. The people will be looking for a new leader, but none forthcoming. A new political structure will come into being.
The history of the scientific discovery of climate change began in the early 19th century when ice ages and other natural changes in paleoclimate were first suspected and the natural greenhouse effect first identified. In the late 19th century, scientists first argued that human emissions of greenhouse gases could change the climate. Many other theories of climate change were advanced, involving forces from volcanism to solar variation. In the 1960s, the warming effect of carbon dioxide gas became increasingly convincing. Some scientists also pointed out that human activities that generated atmospheric aerosols (e.g., "pollution") could have cooling effects as well. During the 1970s, scientific opinion increasingly favored the warming viewpoint. By the 1990s, as a result of improving fidelity of computer models and observational work confirming the Milankovitch theory of the ice ages, a consensus position formed: greenhouse gases were deeply involved in most climate changes and human caused emissions were bringing discernible global warming. Since the 1990s, scientific research on climate change has included multiple disciplines and has expanded.

Objectives: To explore the relationship between systolic and diastolic blood pressure and risk of 6-year, all-cause mortality in men and women age 65 to 84 versus those 85 and older.
Design: A population-based longitudinal study.
Setting: This study was conducted at four different sites: East Boston, Massachusetts; New Haven, Connecticut; two rural counties in Iowa; and Piedmont, North Carolina.
Participants: 12,802 community-dwelling persons age 65 and older.
Measurements: Baseline measurements collected include demographics, self-reported chronic medical conditions, blood pressure measurements, medications, health habits, and hospitalizations.
Results: Unadjusted actuarial survival analyses show that men age 65 to 84 years with systolic blood pressure < 130 mmHg have significantly lower mortality compared with those with systolic blood pressure > or = 180 mmHg (P < .0001). In contrast, men 85 and older with systolic blood pressure > or = 180 mmHg have significantly lower mortality compared with those with systolic blood pressure < 130 mmHg (P < .0001). In Cox proportional hazards analyses controlling for other predictors of survival, the hazard of death associated with each 10-mmHg increase in systolic blood pressure is positively associated among men age 65 to 84 years and negatively associated among men age 85 and older (Hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.04 (1.01, 1.07) for younger men vs 0.92 (0.86, 0.99) for older men). Among women age 65 to 84, the hazard of death significantly increased with increase in systolic blood pressure (P < .0001), while there was no relationship between level of systolic blood pressure and survival in women 85 and older. Both men 65 to 84 years old and those 85 and older showed a negative relationship between diastolic blood pressure and all-cause mortality (Hazard ratio 0.93, 95% CI (0.88-0.97) for men age 65-84 years, and Hazard ratio 0.90, 95% CI 0.80-1.02 for men 85 and older).
Conclusion: In men age 85 and older, higher systolic blood pressure is associated with better survival.

Disabled people and professionals differ in their perceptions of rehabilitation needs.
Journal of Public Health Medicine, 22, (3), .
Full text not available from this repository.
Background. This study set out to explore whether there are systematic differences in unmet needs for rehabilitation services and resources as identified by disabled people and nominated key professionals.
Method. A cross-sectional interview survey of 87 pairs of community-dwelling disabled people (aged 16-65) and their nominated key professionals was conducted in southern England. The Southampton Needs Assessment Questionnaire (SNAQ) was used to examine unmet needs and the Office of Population Censuses and Surveys (OPCS) Disability and Severity Scale to Examine level of disability.
Results. Eighty-seven pairs of disabled people and their nominated key professionals participated. People were severely disabled (median OPCS score 8; interquartile range 6-9). Disabled participants reported significantly more unmet needs than did professionals. There was zero concordance on identified unmet needs between disabled participants and professionals in 56 per cent of cases. Concordance between disabled participants and professionals was significantly better if the disabled participant had reported more unmet needs. There was a trend for general practitioners to be poorer at reporting disabled participants' needs than other professionals. There was fair agreement between disabled participants and professionals in five areas of unmet need only (in descending order): adaptations, physiotherapy, equipment, assistance with 'non-care' activities and the use of a day centre. In all the other areas of unmet need the agreement was poor.
Conclusion. Needs for rehabilitation services and resources (for disabled people) are perceived differently by disabled people and professionals. Until we know who is right about rehabilitation needs, it is important to determine both users' and providers' views when planning and commissioning services.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles may provide a more soluble and plant available source of Zn in Zn fertilizers due to their greater reactivity compared to equivalent micron- or millimetre-sized (bulk) particles. However, the effect of soil on solubility, spatial distribution and speciation of ZnO nanoparticles has not yet been investigated. In this study, we examined the diffusion and solid phase speciation of Zn in an alkaline calcareous soil following application of nanoparticulate and bulk ZnO coated fertilizer products (monoammonium phosphate (MAP) and urea) using laboratory-based x-ray techniques and synchrotron-based μ-x-ray fluorescence (μ-XRF) mapping and absorption fine structure spectroscopy (μ-XAFS). Mapping of the soil-fertilizer reaction zones revealed that most of the applied Zn for all treatments remained on the coated fertilizer granule or close to the point of application after five weeks of incubation in soil. Zinc precipitated mainly as scholzite (CaZn2(PO4)2.2H2O) and zinc ammonium phosphate (Zn(NH4)PO4) species at the surface of MAP granules. These reactions reduced dissolution and diffusion of Zn from the MAP granules. Although Zn remained as zincite (ZnO) at the surface of urea granules, limited diffusion of Zn from ZnO-coated urea granules was also observed for both bulk and nanoparticulate ZnO treatments. This might be due to either the high pH of urea granules, which reduced solubility of Zn, or aggregation (due to high ionic strength) of released ZnO nanoparticles around the granule/point of application. The relative proportion of Zn(OH)2 and ZnCO3 species increased for all Zn treatments with increasing distance from coated MAP and urea granules in the calcareous soil. When coated on macronutrient fertilizers, Zn from ZnO nanoparticles (without surface modifiers) was not more mobile or diffusible compared to bulk forms of ZnO. The results also suggest that risk associated with the presence of ZnO NPs in calcareous soils would be the same as bulk sources of ZnO.

Hello, My printer cuts of the top of the page. actually it seems it starts to print before the page gets into place where it suppose to. In other words, it's not synchronized. Can someone please help me ?!?
More aboutfs1020d printer
I would suggest going to your printers website and seeing if there is an updated driver. Also if you have another computer you may try plugging it in and seeing if it does the same thing.
This sounds like a driver partial incompatibility issue though.(3-1 odds) With a real remote chance of it being the printer(100-1 type odds).
Hi, well. I tried with windows 7 the last time but, next time as you suggested, I'll try on windows xp computer. FYI, in their site there are drivers for windows 7 so I guess it's not the drivers but still I'll check your advice. I'll update... Roy

Stability of preconditioned finite volume schemes at low Mach numbers
(Universität Kassel, FB 17, Mathematik/Informatik, 2004)
In , Guillard and Viozat propose a finite volume method for the simulation of inviscid steady as well as unsteady flows at low Mach numbers, based on a preconditioning technique. The scheme satisfies the results of a single scale asymptotic analysis in a discrete sense and comprises the advantage that this can be derived by a slight modification of the dissipation term within the numerical flux function. Unfortunately, it can be observed by numerical experiments that the preconditioned approach combined with an ...

Vsitours.com - Unity Virtual Reality Tutorial. Connected to Unity Virtual Reality Tutorial, Reserving air vacation, earning hotel reservations and arranging vacation travel generally has changed absolutely with the advent of the web and lots of people make an effort to be their own individual travel agents. While you can organize seemingly a lot of your journey on your own, you cannot do in addition as your vacation agent inside a long run!
There are actually two amounts of solutions towards the concern of why people today vacation. The first will be the clear just one, and possibly the key reason why we give ourselves and quote to other folks. We travel in order that we are able to see sights, encounter other cultures, attend occasions and understand more about the globe. These are enjoyable causes. But you can find deeper factors for traveling that have less to perform with what we do whenever we journey, and more to accomplish with what traveling does to us. These five sets of variations to ourselves are for the heart of what would make journey so powerful. This is often associated to Unity Virtual Reality Tutorial.
Journey activities with the Nomad just before the web and the way to preserve and acquire improved assistance, details after the net by heading on to specialist brokers and vacation operators. Introducing a vacation club where you can get free of charge vouchers for discounted vacation in above 70 international locations.See Also: Little Mix Tour 2017
Dependable tourism means all tourism specifically depending on the usage of organic existence e.g. wildlife and landscape. Mother nature based tourism involve eco-tourism and mass tourism.
Tourism is really a booming business. With many travellers flocking to different destinations all over the world, tourism has started to become one among essentially the most feasible small business marketplaces in the globe. However, air journey, automobile journey as well as other facets of tourism are incorporating on the planet's air pollution crisis which has started to become a difficulty. Vacation operators and hospitality corporates realised that some action desired to generally be taken, and Eco-tourism was developed being a alternative to this problem.

Socialism Government Schools
Socialist Government Schools
What does socialist government schools look like? Continuous debate about separation of religion and state started fifty years ago. This caused prayer in schools to be essentially banned. Globalist wrote rigorous stands. School boards cower to the American Civil Liberties Union. As a result, socialist government schools formed. Christian school groups are discouraged. Muslim, atheist, and even Satanist groups are tolerated. The Educational system leftists make no excuse about teaching a socialist agenda. Teachers do not teach the trust history about our nation. Instead, children learn and understand how to put on a condom. Plus they know how to protest about the socialist cause de jour. Socialism is the religion of choice for the government schools. As a result, socialist aim is to undermine our society.
Public school leadership and teachers practice the religion of socialism. For example, they are big on separation of church and state. Furthermore, they protest against those who fit their personal definitions of bigots, racists, misogynists, homophobes, Islamophobes, and anything Biblical. As a result, socialism and communism exist in public education. The Communist Manifesto states: “…Communism abolishes eternal truths, it abolishes all religion, and all morality, instead of constituting them on a new basis.” This is the basis for all socialism and progressivism where the state becomes god. It mixes politics and religion into a social movement. Socialist government schools confused and dumbed down our children.
Think about this example: Leftists fight to make our schools gun free zones. That tells a shooter that he has free reign to attack “soft targets”. That puts targets on our children’s back. When the inevitable happens, these leftists call for the right of self defense and the defense of the defenseless to be taken away. As a result, governmental god refuse to protect and defend the defenseless but have all the power and our freedom. It is senseless. Moreover, the leftists encourage students to walk out of school to protest guns. Guns did not decide to kill those defenseless kids in Florida, or Columbine, or anywhere else for that matter. It was mentally disturbed evil people who used a gun and pulled the trigger.
Furthermore, automobiles cause approximately over 30,000 deaths a year. We don’t ban them. Your chance of dying as an American is over 300% higher from a car or truck than from a gun. The socialist religion has worked to ban Christian religion in the schools. Socialism religion told Christian religion to exist schools. Presently, socialist use free speech to help achieve that goal. Its congregants organizes protests against our electoral system when it doesn’t go their way. They continue to go after the right to bear arms. These teachers, media, politicians manipulate our children into conforming to the religion of socialism. They demand that rights to freedoms be taken away as a strategy. This leads to despotism. Jesus warns in Matthew 24:4, “Take heed that no man deceive you.” A big deception is found in our public schools with the religion of socialism. Americans need to drain another swamp.

By MARY SMITH
The state auditor’s office is recommending additional cost-cutting measures for the school district.
Though the district compares well to four of its peer school districts because it was placed in state fiscal emergency in October 2009 and projected a $2 million deficit for the 2010 fiscal year, the special-performance audit was mandatory, schools Treasurer Brian Stidham said after the audit was released earlier this week.
The district was found to have a “noteworthy accomplishment” of total expenditures per pupil that is lower than the peer average in 2008-09 and “is limiting costs in the areas that have the most-significant impact on its financial condition,” the audit concludes.
The district spends $7,986 per pupil compared with a peer average of $9,014.
The school districts that the state used for the comparison were Bristol and Southington in Trumbull County, Columbiana and Lowellville.
The district’s revenues per pupil were “significantly lower,” the audit reports, primarily because of local taxes. In fiscal year ’08-09, the McDonald local-tax revenues per student were $1,432, which is 51 percent lower than the peer average of $2,949.
The lower per-pupil revenues are due to lower property-tax valuations. The Ohio Department of Taxation’s 2008 report shows McDonald’s total property valuation was $54.5 million with a valuation of $71,690 per student, much lower than the peer averages of $91.1 million and $112,076 valuation per student.
The district’s total expenditures also are significantly lower than the peer average.
The state auditors also urged the district to develop a comprehensive strategic plan that outlines its long-term vision.
The auditor’s report concludes that school-board members, as a collective group, have not been proactively involved in the district’s finances before the 2009-10 school year.
It also recommends the board start to receive regular and consistent training on school-district finance issues, develop policies that could have assisted in recognizing the current financial difficulties and establish an audit committee to oversee finances.
The reports says the district’s financial status had been declining since fiscal year 2002-03, although the district was placed in fiscal emergency in October 2009.
Audited financial statements show deficit-ending balances in the general fund of $664,000 in fiscal year 2002-03, $547,000 in fiscal year 2003-04 and $623,00 in fiscal year 2004-05. Audits for 2006-07 and 2007-08 have not been released yet.
The audit notes the financial statements indicate the district attributed the financial difficulties to the state funding system’s being ruled unconstitutional and declining enrollment among other things.
The audit notes the board did not get routine financial reports by the treasurer and was given the financial forecast with handwritten notes and analyses and the monthly bank statements.
Four board members noted they had asked for additional information from the previous treasurer, but he often was unwilling to provide additional information.
The audit found the district compares high to its peers in custodial staff — averaging a cost per pupil of $928 compared with an average of $759 in peer schools.
The treasurer explained, however, that custodial staff in McDonald cleans and repairs both inside buildings and does outside maintenance and repairs, while other districts hire additional staff members to do outside maintenance at a lower rate.
MCDONALD SCHOOLS | State audit
Other financial recommendations the Ohio auditor’s office suggested for the McDonald school district.
The district said some of the recommendations already have been implemented.
Require the treasurer’s office to approve and issue purchase orders to department heads and record costs in advance of making purchases.
Consider cutting seven teachers. The district to date has cut 71/2 teaching positions.
Negotiate to eliminate health-insurance bonuses, switch all employees to a lower premium plan, which is currently required for employees hired after July 1, 2008, and require all employees to contribute at least 15 percent to the monthly premium costs.
Review the nonbargaining office/clerical salary schedule and job responsibilities and consider negotiating to revise the salary schedule and/or freeze wages for operations staff and reduce the supplemental compensation rates to be more comparable to peer districts.
Do a cost-benefit analysis before offering future early- retirement incentives.
Review the cost of its special-education program and look for overall cost-effective changes, such as hiring with other districts or using in-house or neighboring educational centers or private-sector providers.
Drop down to running one bus from its current two buses for local students and one bus for the Trumbull County Career and Technical Center. This would have to be an item negotiated with nonteaching employees.
Review its compensation rates for supplemental contracts, which are considered “generous” by the audit compared to peers. McDonald’s supplemental salaries are an average of 20.7 percent higher per contract than its peer schools because of a higher base teaching salary and higher percentages paid.

Throughout history many art movements have emerged that artists and styles can be classified under. One large distinguishable movement was that of the Italian Renaissance. The Renaissance is categorised as the period between c. 1450 and c.1600. This period saw great development in our art history, and the recognition of many master talents. The various stages of the Renaissance saw a certain growth towards modernity, that can be illustrated with the consideration of artwork from the Early and High Renaissance paintings such as Masaccio's: The Holy Trinity and Raffaelo's: School of Athens.
The Early Renaissance in Florence was a turbulent time that brought forth some of the most memorable and timeless pieces known to the Western World. Masaccio depicted art much unlike anything proceeding it because it incorporated emotions and feelings. The 1400's as Stirton expresses are said to be the beginning of beautiful attitudes, movements, liveliness and vivacity.
The use of bright colours and revolutionary painting techniques highlighted deep threads of concern for humanist learning and naturalistic thoughts within the society. The application of scientific perspective and the depiction of natural lighting were also an important step towards the development of modernistic painting.
Masaccio's paintings held a firm grasp of humanistic values. Humanists of this era sought "to breathe life into the dimmed legacy of Greece and Rome, a legacy that was locked in texts and monuments." Humanists everywhere emersed themselves in the "written wisdom of classical antiquity," to study the languages of Greek and Latin, peruse classical literature and engage in history and pre-Christian philosophy. "The chief concerns of humanism were human values and interest as distinct from- but not opposed to- the other worldly values of religion." Humanistic values are observed in Masaccio's painting of The Holy Trinity in the emotions, feelings and bright colours; the...

Text description provided by the architects. Site
In most cases, the first impression of the site decides the main direction of the work. It is the most essential moment to decide what part of the site will be occupied, and what posture will be taken toward the city. The first impression of the site for Sunggwang Church was a model of the disordered aspect in the suburb of a large city. Because of all sorts of small commercial facilities and plants, the form, material, and sign were chaotic.
The site for building was a long shape with a bit of slope.Such conflicting two concepts like ‘blocking and communication’ hit my head first. 'Blocking' not to be swept by surrounding noises and confusion, there should be 'communication' to keep the essence of church.
First, for 'blocking', the barrier was established by placing the building lengthily on the front size of the land facing the city. The inner-side of the barrier becomes a cozy yard, and also a parking space.
And, for 'communication', a huge gate was made on the barrier. The gate is an architectural installation to welcome and invite neighbors. Instead of a commonly-seen indifferent glass door, the huge gate showing a cozy yard will be a more active expression for communication.
Form and Materials
The straight roof line, pillars, and cross tower are impressive. It aimed to be a muscular and healthy beauty with a strong physique , instead of a dangerous and insecure plastic beauty.
Simplifying materials as exposed concrete finish and red brick, the process and cost were reduced. The strong and honest feelings of exposed concrete finish were harmonized with the delicacy of bricks elaborately built up. Specially, building up bricks through straight joint, the abstract face was more emphasized than the masonry wall.
Using the exposed concrete finish and red brick for chapel inside, the visual unity was provided. Without attaching additional interior finishing, it was filled with light fragments flowing in from gaps of bricks and the sunlight pouring from the ceiling. It is a space of light only decorated with light. The chapel floor had a slope for a sense of space overcoming the limit of a single-story building.
Buildings should not only play rational roles for users, but also have positive effects on the city where they belong to.
I hope that this church building is usefully used as a space for worship and culture. Moreover, I hope that this place is remembered as a warm red brick wall at daytime, and the night of the city is beautifully decorated with light coming from gaps of bricks at night.

Once upon time, when million-dollar bonuses rained down upon Wall Street, bankers would think nothing of blowing tens of thousands of dollars on an exotic car—or two. Driveways in the Hamptons, Greenwich, and Palo Alto were decorated with gleaming German and Italian machinery. But now, as the bonuses have dried up, so have sales of Mercedes and BMWs. In the harsh new reality confronting the financial sector—salary caps! nationalization of banks! Lehman Brothers!—it will be the rare banker who can afford to take his check and blow it at his local Ferrari dealer—assuming, of course, that he even got enough this year to make a down payment.
Read on to see which cars bankers—and nearly everyone else—will only dream about driving this year.

Stephen Moore is an artist known for the color and light quality in his paintings. He is a native of North Carolina.
Stephen is a graduate of UNC in Chapel Hill and retired from a 34-year career in family medicine in 2015. He was taught by Eleanor Seng, a North Carolina artist who studied with Emil Holzhaurer, a student of Robert Henri. Stephen was taught by Eleanor at a community art center in Burlington, NC. After a hiatus of around 10 years they rekindled their relationship in Chapel Hill. Eleanor was a mentor and dear friend.
Stephen has been painting and showing since 1980. He has traveled and painted extensively in Europe. Painting interests also include coastal and other North Carolina scenes with an emphasis on local color.
Though primarily a landscape painter practicing plein air techniques and studio painter, he is also interested in portrait, figurative, and still-life genres. He works in his studio in Beaufort NC.
His work is held in the corporate collections of SAS, Jordan and Price Lawfirm, Rex Hospital, Family Medical Associates of Raleigh, and Duke Raleigh Hospital to name but a few.

For over sixty years, art therapy has been used in a range of treatment programs to assist people that need help expressing their feelings. Art therapy gives troubled individuals an opportunity to let out what troubles them using paints, clay, chalk – any form of creative visual representation. This is a restorative process that eases mental stress, stabilizes the mind, and allows people to process traumatic experiences.
Art therapy isn’t just for people who’ve gone through tragedy, though. It can be beneficial to anyone who needs to deal with tension and stress. It’s even a useful therapeutic tool for people who struggle with learning disabilities and other psychological disorders.
When executed properly with the right kind of supervision, art therapy can have a transformative effect. Sculpting, taking photographs, drawing, painting, and other forms of artistic expression enable people to explore thoughts and feelings that they otherwise have difficulty facing. It’s often a powerfully healing experience for patients that go through it.
The media listed so far are really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to art therapy. Under the wider banner of “creative therapy,” the visual arts have often been joined by drama, writing, music, dance, and virtually every other form of creative expression. Movement and music therapy, for example, involves expressing one’s feelings through deliberate motion set to accompanying music. It’s all a matter of finding the medium that really suits the patient. When given access to the materials and opportunities they need, people suffering from real psychological issues have the ability to communicate their problems — and deal with them — in a way that would otherwise be impossible. Patients can use art to reveal things about themselves that they would never confide through standard verbal psychotherapy. This mode of therapy is helpful for disabled patients who don’t have the ability to engage in a conventional back-and-forth conversation. Art therapy is even useful in dealing with the psychological fallout attached to terminal medical conditions like HIV or cancer.
There are many groups that can benefit from art therapy. It makes an excellent fit with teenagers who are suffering from considerable mental stress, for example. Children around high school age are famously hesitant to share their feelings and concerns with adults, which can make it difficult to give them the help they need. By expressing themselves through art, teenagers have an opportunity to share their feelings and relieve themselves of considerable psychological burdens. Most teens who engage in art therapy find the experience helpful, and their ability to learn tends to improve after a course of treatment.
A therapeutic process that employs art as a key medium for self-expression allows you to discover your true desires and fears. It becomes much easier to address your emotional and psychological challenges when you have a clear understanding of them. Art therapy is highly beneficial for those who suffer from potentially debilitating psychological conditions including post-traumatic stress disorder and bipolar disorder. It also has a generally positive effect on your overall mental and emotional health. Whether you need to process feelings following a traumatic experience, learn to manage your psychological issues, or simply do a better job of managing stress, art therapy can help.
