All To Jesus: A Year Of Devotions “Cast all your cares on him.” “Love the Lord with all your heart.” “I can do all things…” You’d be surprised how often the word “all” appears in the Bible—thousands of times. And with each description of God’s comprehensive promises, each reminder of our complete blessing in Christ, each appeal for our full and total surrender, His reputation grows larger before our eyes. We see again what He can do. We see again who we can be. From Robert J. Morgan ( 100 Bible Verses Everyone Should Know by Heart, Then Sings My Soul ) comes All To Jesus, a choice sampling of the Bible’s most “all”-encompassing statements, surrounded each day by inspiring stories, personal reflections, and the encouraging assurance that you are cared for in ways you never imagined. Derived from the pages of real life and a pastor’s heart, each daily reading meets you in an ever-deeper place, revealing God’s immeasurable power and keen attention to the smallest detail. Truly, He is all you need. All year long. Robert J. Morgan B & H

The potential role of glycine-160 of human O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase in reaction with O6-benzylguanine as determined by site-directed mutagenesis and molecular modelling comparisons. AuthorsRafferty, Joseph A Wibley, J E Margison, Geoffrey P Moody, P C Douglas, K T AffiliationCRC Department of Carcinogenesis, Paterson Institute for Cancer Research, Christie Hospital (NHS) Trust, Manchester, UK. MetadataShow full item record AbstractO6-Alkylguanine DNA-alkyltransferase (ATase) repairs toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic O6-alkylguanine (O6-alkG) lesions in DNA by a highly conserved reaction involving the stoichiometric transfer of the alkyl group to the active centre cysteine residue of the ATase protein. In the Escherichia coli Ada ATase, which is effectively refactory to inhibition by O6-benzylguanine (O6-BzG), the residue corresponding to glycine-160 (G160) for the mammalian proteins of this class is replaced by a tryptophan (W). Therefore, to investigate the potential role of the G160 of the human ATase (hAT) protein in determining sensitivity to O6-BzG, site-directed mutagenesis was used to produce a mutant protein (hATG160W) substituted at position 160 with a W residue. The hATG160W mutant was found to be stably expressed and was 3- and 5-fold more sensitive than hAT to inactivation by O6-BzG, in the absence and presence of additional calf-thymus DNA respectively. A similar, DNA dependent increased sensitivity of the hATG160W mutant relative to wild-type was also found for O6-methylguanine mediated inactivation. The potential role of the W160 residue in stabilising the binding of the O6-alkG to the protein is discussed in terms of a homology model of the structure of hAT. The region occupied by G/W-160 forms the site of a putative hinge that could be important in the conformational change that is likely to occur on DNA binding. Three sequence motifs have been identified in this region which may influence O6-BzG access to the active site; YSGG or YSGGG in mammals (YAGG in E. coli Ogt, YAGS in Dat from Bacillus subtilis), YRWG in E. coli Ada and Salmonella typhimurium (but YKWS in Saccharomyces cerevisiae) or YRGGF in AdaB from B. Subtilis. Finally,conformational and stereoelectronic analysis of the putative transition states for the alkyl transfer from a series of inactivators of hAT, including O6-BzG was undertaken to rationalise the unexpected weak inhibition shown by the alpha-pi-unsaturated electrophiles.

An oil well drilling rig is not an abstract idea. A method of operating an oil well drilling rig is also not an abstract idea. This proposition should be clear to all, but in TDE Petroleum Data Solutions v AKM Enterprise, the Federal Circuit held that a method of operating an oil well drilling rig is directed to the abstract idea of “storing data, receiving data, and using mathematics or a computer to organize that data and generate additional information.” Section 101 of the Patent Act has been interpreted to prohibit the patenting of abstract ideas, laws of nature, and natural phenomena. Although recent Supreme Court cases have universally found the patents at issue ineligible, Bilski, Alice and Mayo cite approvingly to a previous Supreme Court case, Diamond v. Diehr, which found a process for molding rubber articles with the aid of a computer to be patent eligible. Alice and Mayo established a now-famous two-part test to determine whether a patent claims ineligible subject matter. The first step of the Alice/Mayo test asks whether the claim is “directed to” one of the prohibited categories. The second step asks whether the claim involves an “inventive concept” sufficient to confer patent eligibility. The Federal Circuit has applied this test with ruthless efficiency to invalidate patents, although sanity is slowly returning as the court has upheld patents improving computer animation of faces and the preservation of liver cells. Unfortunately, the Federal Circuit rarely compares the facts of the cases before it to controlling Supreme Court precedent. The clear similarity between the claims to operating an oil well drilling rig in TDE and the claims to curing rubber in Diehr show how far off course the Federal Circuit has veered in interpreting section 101. In Diehr, the claimed method used a computer to precisely control a rubber molding process. The computer allowed the inventors to measure and recalculate the time to cure the rubber while it was in the mold. At the end of the method, a rubber article was produced. In TDE, the claimed method used a computer to control the drilling of an oil well. The computer permitted the inventors to accurately determine the state of the well operation. Different claims provided for different ends of the method, including adjusting the operation of the drill (claim 30) and selecting the state of the well operation (claim 1). A side-by-side analysis of representative claims from TDE and Diehr at the bottom of this post shows exactly how similar they are. Each claim recites (1) an industrial process that uses (2) initial data combined with (3) newly collected data that is (4) analyzed to (5) improve the output or operation of the industrial process. It is worth repeating: in both Diehr and TDE, the claims were directed to an industrial process. The general industrial processes existed previously in the art. Molding rubber using the defined equation was well known. Drilling an oil well with consideration of the state of the well operation was known. The contributions in both Diehr and TDE were the addition of data collection and analysis to improve the operation of the industrial process. Neither portion of the Federal Circuit’s analysis in TDE cites to Diehr, let alone analyzes the obvious similarities between the claims at issue and those found patent eligible by the Supreme Court. In a single paragraph of analysis regarding step one of the Mayo/Alice test, the Federal Circuit held that claim 1 of the TDE patent was directed to the abstract idea of “storing data, receiving data, and using mathematics or a computer to organize that data and generate additional information.” It completely ignored parts of the claim that required the data to be collected from an oil well drilling operation and to be used for the oil well drilling operation. Of course, ignoring these parts of the claim was required to find that the claim was directed to an abstract idea of data manipulation. Also taking only a single paragraph, the Federal Circuit’s analysis of Mayo/Alice step two was similarly devoid of engagement with the explicit claim requirements of an oil well drilling operation. Instead, it focused only on what the computer was doing in the process, rather than the process as a whole. Diehr, along with many other cases, explicitly requires that the process be considered as a whole in the section 101 analysis. The Federal Circuit’s error here is worse than it was in Ariosa v. Sequenom. In Ariosa, the court engaged with the closest factual Supreme Court precedent, although it felt bound by Mayo to find the claims ineligible. However, the court in TDE completely ignored and disregarded Diehr, the Supreme Court case that aligns in both law and fact with the claims at issue. Had the court analyzed or considered Diehr, it is likely the outcome would have been different. To the extent that one asserts the final method of utilizing the data distinguished claim 1 in Diehr from claim 1 in TDE, dependent claim 30 of the patent at issue in TDE cured this defect. Claim 30 recites: “[t]he method of claim 1, further comprising using the state of the well operation to evaluate parameters and provide control for the well operation.” (emphasis added). Thus, the patent in TDE explicitly claimed the actual operation of the industrial machinery, just as the claim in Diehr. The Federal Circuit stated that it was not considering separately the remaining claims of the patent, ostensibly because TDE did not “distinguish those claims from representative claim 1.” On the contrary, TDE argued claim 30 and related claims separately on precisely the ground that claim 30 “closed [the] loop” and required control of the well. At this point, it is clear that neither the Federal Circuit nor the Supreme Court are going to step in to fix the wayward path of patent eligibility law. It will therefore be up to Congress to affirm what should be apparent to all: an oil rig is not an abstract idea. |Diehr – Claim 1* (US Application No. 05/602,463) |TDE – Claim 1 (US Patent No. 6,892,812) |1 – Preamble |A method of operating a rubber-molding press for precision molded compounds with the aid of a digital computer, comprising: |An automated method for determining the state of a well operation, comprising: |Both claims are directed to industrial processes where the underlying process (rubber molding or oil well drilling) existed prior to the invention |2 – Initial Data |providing said computer with a database for said press, including at least, natural logarithm conversion data (ln), the activation energy constant (C) unique to each batch of said compound being molded, and a constant (x) dependent upon the geometry of the particular mold of the press, |storing a plurality of states for a well operation; |Both claims require data to be provided prior to operation of the method to interpret data collected. |3 – New Data Collection |initiating an interval timer in said computer upon the closure of the press for monitoring the elapsed time of said closure, constantly determining the temperature (Z) of the mold at a location closely adjacent to the mold cavity in the press during molding, constantly providing the computer with the temperature (Z), |receiving mechanical and hydraulic data reported for the well operation from a plurality of systems; |Both claims require collecting data from sources that are specific to the machinery being operated. Therefore, both claims require specific machinery, not just a general purpose computer. |4 – Data Analysis |repetitively calculating in the computer, at frequent intervals during each cure, the Arrhenius equation for reaction time during the cure, which is ln v = CZ + x where v is the total required cure time, repetitively comparing in the computer at said frequent intervals during the cure each said calculation of the total required cure time calculated with the Arrhenius equation and said elapsed time, and |and determining that at least some of the data is valid by comparing the at least some of the data to at least one limit, the at least one limit indicative of a threshold at which the at least some of the data do not accurately represent the mechanical or hydraulic condition purportedly represented by the at least some of the data; and when the at least some of the data are valid, based on the mechanical and hydraulic data, |Both claims analyze the data. Although not apparent on the face of the claims, the underlying data analysis existed in the art for both claims. The Arrhenius equation was well known. Validating well drilling data against a limit was known in the art although its usefulness was disputed. |5 – Utilizing the Data |opening the press automatically when a said comparison indicates equivalence. |automatically selecting one of the states as the state of the well operation. |Both claims use the data generated in the industrial process. Selecting an individual state of a well operation in a necessary component of operating the well. *Claim 1 is representative for both the application in Diehr and the patent in TDE.

Bam Margera, the former “Jackass” star, has reached a significant milestone in his journey to recovery. After a month of sobriety, Margera is not only taking control of his life again but also hitting the skate park with renewed vigor. Bam Margera, former “Jackass” star, has reached the milestone of one month of sobriety and is pursuing his passion for skateboarding again. With newfound support and a personal determination to stay sober, Margera is embracing a healthier lifestyle. A Month of Sober Living Sources close to Margera have revealed that he recently marked one month of sobriety while staying on a farm outside of Philadelphia, owned by another professional skateboarder. During this time, Margera, along with his girlfriend Dannii, has been focused on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. They have been hitting the gym daily, going on invigorating hikes with their dogs, and as a result, Margera has shed a considerable amount of weight. Back to Skateboarding With his improved physical condition, Margera has been able to return to skateboarding. Described as making it look effortless, he is embracing his love for the sport once again. However, what sets Margera’s current journey apart is his commitment to surrounding himself with a supportive and positive circle of friends. A decisive moment came when Dannii presented him with an ultimatum, and Margera chose her over alcohol. A Personal Choice Unlike previous attempts at sobriety, Margera now feels motivated to stay sober for himself. This is a significant shift, as it is not influenced by external factors such as family or friends staging an intervention. Margera’s current journey represents a personal desire to make lasting changes and live a healthier life. In other news, Margera has been grappling with a legal battle over custody of his five-year-old son, Phoenix, with his estranged wife Nikki. Temporary sole custody was granted to Nikki last month following Margera’s arrest and citation for public intoxication on separate occasions. Despite the ongoing custody dispute, Margera has been able to maintain regular contact with his son through FaceTime. Lastly, Margera’s brother, Jess, shared earlier this year that Margera had destroyed a guitar gifted to them by legendary musician Billy Idol in a fit of rage. In a surprising turn of events, Margera and Dannii recently spent time with Idol in Philadelphia after one of his concerts, where Idol graciously signed a new guitar for Margera. As Margera’s journey continues, his accomplishments in sobriety and skateboarding signify a renewed determination to embrace a healthier and more fulfilling life.

Home is more than just a physical space; it is the sanctuary where our stories unfold, and our lives find their rhythm. It is a place where comfort intertwines with memories, creating a unique tapestry of warmth and belonging. In this exploration of the essence of Home, we delve into the multifaceted dimensions that transform a mere structure into a haven of love, growth, and self-discovery. The Physical Shelter At its core, a home is a shelter—a place that shields us from the elements and provides a secure haven. Whether it’s a modest apartment, a suburban house, or a rural cottage, the physical space we call home is the canvas upon which we paint the story of our lives. The walls, the floors, and the roof serve as the silent witnesses to our joys, sorrows, and everything in between. Beyond the bricks and mortar, the arrangement of furniture, the choice of colors, and the play of natural light contribute to the unique character of each home. These elements influence not only the aesthetics but also the emotional atmosphere within the walls. A well-designed home can be a source of inspiration, promoting productivity and creativity. The Emotional Hearth Home is a vessel for emotions, a crucible where relationships are forged and nurtured. It is where we share laughter around the dinner table, seek solace in the embrace of loved ones, and weather storms as a united front. The emotional hearth of a home is stoked by the bonds between family members, friends, and even pets.

Well, I didn’t think this would be the first challenge I signed up for in 2020, but I was anticipating its announcement. Keely at A Common Reader is hosting a Russian Literature Challenge for 2020. Yay! I signed up for her Ancient Greek Challenge in 2016 and it was a great success. I can’t wait for the chance to read some more Russian Literature to add to that which I’ve already read. Keely at We Went Outside and Saw The Stars is hosting a Russian Literature Challenge for 2017 about which I’m very excited! In the past couple of years, I’ve continued reading Tolstoy, have begun to delve into Dostoyevsky, have explored some of Chekhov’s works, and have aspirations to read more Pushkin. What better way to accomplish my plans than the Russian Literature Challenge? Here are the levels to aim for: - Level One (Tolstoy): 1-3 books - Level Two (Chekov): 4-6 books - Level Three (Dostoevsky): 7-11 books - Level Four (Turgenev): 12+ books You can count short stories, poetry, novels, novellas and plays in your book count. As for my planned reads? Ugh, I don’t really like plans because for me they always change, but I’ll list a few possibilities I might chose: - Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky and a short story or two (my annoyance with D is turning into fascination) - The Kreutzer Sonata by Leo Tolstoy & a short story or two - Anna Akhmatova (poetry) - The Diary of A Superfluous Man by Ivan Turgenev - The Queen of Spades by Alexander Pushkin and others - A Hero of Our Time by Mikhail Lermontov - Dead Souls by Nikolia Gogol - Oblomov by Ivan Goncharov - Chekhov’s works - Dr. Zhivago by Boris Pasternak - Heart of A Dog by Mikhail Bulgakov - something by Vladimir Nabokov - One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovitch by Alexsandr Solzhenitsyn - The Gulag Archipelago by Alexsandr Solzhenitsyn - We by Yevgeny Zamyatin Before I start, I’d also love to read Lectures on Russian Literature by Vladimir Nabokov. I’m having many wishful thoughts, I know. For someone who was complaining about not having enough challenges for 2017, my slate seems to be filling up rapidly. I just hope I can keep up! “Well, Prince, so Genoa and Lucca are now just family estates of the Buonapartes …..” I am very hesitant to even attempt to review this book. How can one do even the slightest bit of justice to an epic like this? How can one even touch on the depth of the myriad of characters, not to mention communicate the complexities of a war that even the participants had difficulty distinguishing? And how do you review such an epic tale without producing an epic review? War and Peace follows the lives of five families of Tsarist Russia: the Rostovs, the Bolkonskis, the Bezukhovs, the Kuragins and the Drubetskoys, their interactions and struggles, and the afflictions suffered by each set among the events leading up to and during Napoleon’s invasive campaign in the year of 1812. Pierre Bezukhov is the illegitimate son of a nobleman and, through a series of circumstances, inherits a great fortune. His new position in society chafes against his natural character of simplicity, naiveté, and introspection. The Rostov family is a well-respected family, yet are in financial difficulties. The son, Nikolai, joins the Russian army, his brother, Petya, will soon follow, and their daughter, Natasha, a joyful free-spirit, becomes attached to a number of men throughout the story. Sophia, an orphaned niece, is raised by the Rostovs, and shows a steady and loyal character as she pledges her love to Nikolai early in the novel. Bolkonsky senior is a crochety old count who attempts to control his son, Andrei, and terrorizes his daughter, Maria. |Natasha Rostova (c. 1914) And so begins the dance between the cast of characters, sometimes a smooth waltz, and at others a frenzied tango. There is contrast between generations, between old and new ideas, between life and its purpose, yet Tolstoy is adept as showing the gray tones overshadowing the blacks and whites; that situations are not always as they appear. Tolstoy’s highest attribute is his ability to peel off the layers of each person and look into his soul. His characters are crafted with such depth and such human motivations that the reader can only marvel at his skill. And not only can he give birth to such characters, he understands them. The scenes involving the Russian peasantry, who act completely contrary to reason, yet with such humanness, are evidence of Tolstoys profound comprehension of human nature and the human condition. |Count Leo Tolstoy, 1908 I love how Tolstoy lets humanity and compassion show through the animosity and the bloodletting of war. One of my favourite characters of the novel was Ramballe, the French officer whom Pierre met in Bazdeev’s house and who showed brotherhood and goodwill despite that fact that, given the circumstances, they should have been pitted against each other as sworn enemies. Originally, Pierre is portrayed somewhat as a bumbling oaf, a man of a lower class who, by luck and circumstances has managed to rise to a position of prestige yet has never been able to cast aside his peasant-like origins. However by his actions in the novel, he becomes admirable, echoing a segment of humanity that shows kindness, goodness, bravery and integrity that shines out from the avariciousness and shallowness of high society. Tolstoy himself was very ambiguous about his masterpiece stating that it was, “not a novel, even less is it a poem, and still less an historical chronicle.” He believed that if the work was masterful, it could not conform to accepted standards and therefore could not be labelled. The Battle of Borodino by Louise-Françoise, Baron Lejeune, 1822 “It is natural for us who were not living in those days to imagine that when half Russia had been conquered and the inhabitants were fleeing to distant provinces, and one levy after another was being raised for the desense of the fatherland, all Russians from the greatest to the least were solely engaged in sacrificing themselves, saving their fatherland, or weeping over its downfall. The tales and descriptions speak only of the self-sacrifice, patriotic devotion, despair, grief, and the heroism of the Russians. But it was not really so. It appears so to us because we see only the general historic interest of that time and do not see all the personal human interests that people had. Yet in reality those personal interest of the moment so much transcend the general interests that they always prevent the public interest from being felt or even noticed. Most of the people at that time paid not attention to the general progress of events but were guided by their own private interests, and they were the very people whose activities at that period were most useful. Those who tried to understand the general course of events and to take part in it by self-sacrifice and heroism were the most useless members of society, they saw everything upside-down, and all they did for the common good turned out to be useless and foolish …….. Even those, fond of intellectual talk and of expressing their feelings, who discussed Russia’s position at the time involuntarily introduced into their conversation either a shade of pre tense and falsehood or useless condemnation and anger directed against people accused of actions no one could possibly be guilty of. ……… Only unconscious action bears fruit, and he who plays a part in an historic event never understands its significance. If he tries to realize it his efforts are fruitless. The more closely a man was engaged in the events then taking place in Russia the less did he realize their significance ……….” |Napoleon’s Retreat from Moscow Perhaps Tolstoy is showing us that people are imperfect, with human vice and human foibles and that, in spite of trying to find heroics in war, the actions are only the actions of people trying to survive. It is history looking backwards that make the heroes, but in reality, the characters in these trials of life are all people acting out their parts in a very human way. There is no glory in war, only people trying to deal with the circumstances as best they can, and to get by with a little human dignity. Success can be more a matter of chance than planning, and it is often luck or misfortune that places people in either the bright spotlight of fame, or the dark dungeons of villainy. I know that many people shy away from War and Peace because of its length, and I did too for a long time. Another criticism is that Tolstoy’s “war” parts are monotonous. It certainly is a lengthy novel but by doing some cursive research on this period of Russian history, the reader can gain enough of a base to allow him to relax and be pulled into the story. And by viewing the wars scenes, not only as history, but as a chance to learn from people’s reactions in situations of stress and conflict, I think they can give us more of an insight into human motivations. So pick it up and let yourself be swept away into the Russia Empire of the early 1800s. You won’t be disappointed! (translated by Aylmer & Louise Maude) Another challenge check-in and another challenge going along well. My, it’s nice to get these check-ins on near completed challenges instead of the ones I’m struggling through. My challenge goal was to read three Russian novels and so far I have read three, so my challenge, theoretically is complete. Both Eugene Onegin and Doctor Zhivago were re-reads. I think I’m becoming a re-read advocate because each book that I’ve re-read has given me such a deeper understanding of the work, which, of course, increases my appreciation of it. This quote pretty much sums up my experience: “In truly good writing no matter how many times you read it you do not know how it is done. That is beacause there is a mystery in all great writing and that mystery does not dis-sect out. It continues and it is always valid. Each time you re-read you see or learn something new.” ~ Ernest Hemingway |Palace Square in winter But, of course, I’m not done; I’m going to continue with the challenge. At least before the end of the year I have Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turgenev planned and in the summer I want to read Russian Thinkers by Isaiah Berlin. The latter would count as a book for this challenge too ……. wouldn’t it ……???? Does anyone have any other suggestions of Russian books that I simply must read? Any suggestions are welcome! I was so happy to get the chance to participate in Marian at Tanglewood’s Read-Along for my second read of Eugene Onegin in six months. My first time I read the translation by Charles Johnston and this time chose to read James A. Falen’s translation. But more comparisons on the two later. It was such a joy to read such a lively and often tongue-in-cheek poem, yet Pushkin weaves his jaunty remarks throughout a tale of serious love, serious death and serious coming-of-age, crafting a remarkable masterpiece. Since I already reviewed Eugene Onegin the first time I read it, I will simply cover a couple of areas that stood out for me from a second read, that were not initially apparent. |First Edition of the novel Comparing the two translations, I must say I enjoyed Falen more than Johnston. Johnston’s words have a loftier tone and are perhaps more beautiful, but I think Falen captures the spirit of the poem more accurately. A couple of times, his choice of words appeared awkward, yet he communicated the grave situations in balance with the bouncy, cheekiness of the narrator, with flair and apparent ease. I would recommend him for a first-time reader. This second read I noticed numerous instances of juxtaposition ………. Tatyana reading books that lead her to form a romantic infatuation with a man she’s barely spoken to vs. Tatyana reading books that lead her to a more mature and formed view of Onegin’s character; Tatyana’s love of the country and woods vs. her marital residence being in the city; Tatyana’s letter vs. Onegin’s letter; Onegin’s rejection of Tatyana, and then Tatyana’s rejection of Onegin; Onegin’s volatile response to a friend’s challenge that leads to that friend’s death vs. Onegin’s wish to seduce a friend’s wife which could have led to a similar circumstance. It really became apparent to me this time that Onegin hadn’t learned anything. It was clear to Tatyana, too. She asks him pointedly, why he is suddenly pursuing her, and her harsh words demonstrate her mistrust of his motives: ” Why mark me out for your attention? Is it perhaps my new ascension To circles that you find more swank; Or that I now have wealth and rank; Or that my husband, maimed in battle, Is held in high esteem at Court? Or would my fall perhaps be sport, A cause for all the monde to tattle — Which might in turn bring you some claim To social scandal’s kind of fame?” Until he saw Tatyana the second time, he was the same foppish young man, sinking in ennui. She revived him briefly, yet even in the ardent fog of love, his actions are not the actions of a man who has gone through a self-examination from the tragedy that had come from his initial conduct (the duel). If he had managed to convince Tatyana to begin a relationship with him, it would have ended in another duel and another possible death of a friend. I think Tatyana was wise enough to ascertain the baseness of his behaviour and foresaw the consequences. She loved him as a man, yet rejected his ignoble character. |Statue of Alexander Pushkin photo courtesy of Cliff (Flickr) Creative Commons License This quote by Onegin sums up his character throughout the poem: “Yet I in futile dullness squander These days allotted me by fate …..” There is a pathos in his words and actions with which the reader can sympathize, hoping for a reversal in his chosen path, but at the end he is still walking the road of self-gratification and boredom, and we can only watch him disappear into the thickening mist ….. Everyone is probably wondering why on earth would I join another challenge? I was wondering the same thing, but his one is too good to pass up. I have been making my way through the Russian literary greats but much too slowly, and this challenge will help me focus and give me connection with friends who are doing the same thing as I. What better reason to join? The requirements are as follows: Because this is a classics blog, I would limit it to classic literature. It can be a novel by a Russian author or a novel set in Russia, and how you choose to define “classic” is up to you. And, of course, you can use books from any other challenge you’ve set yourself. Finally, you can list list your books before you start, or, like me, you can just explore and read whatever comes your way. There are four levels: - Level one: 1 – 3 books - Level two: 4 – 6 books - Level three: 7 – 12 books - Level four: 12 + books I am going to go completely against my nature and be conservative, aiming for Level One. 2. The Idiot – Fyodor Dostoyevsky 3. Doctor Zhivago – Boris Pasternak 5. Fathers and Sons – Ivan Turgenev The Eugene Onegin Read-Along will soon give me my first Russian book for the year. Best of luck with the challenge, everyone! And thanks to O for creating it!

The neatness of your carpet speaks volumes about you specifically and your home in general. While it is a convention to sweep your carpet, busy people or business organizations tend to hire a professional organization to use equipment and machines for a perfect carpet cleaning. Nevertheless, many seek out professionals when it comes to carpet cleaning for special occasions such as festive periods, holding a party, hosting visitors, and above all, maintain perfect hygiene. Apart from that, a carpet cleaner will do a better job in using equipment such as machines, vanish, and steam to clean your carpet and make it practically new again. When searching for a professional carpet cleaner, Clean2Shine has been prominent in offering services that have gotten lots of positive reviews from clients and customers. Carpet cleaning is a very technical job because if care is not taken, a cleaner may end up damaging the carpet. And the best way to go about it from Clean2Shine perspective is to use the best techniques that work based on the carpet’s outlook. The state of your carpet determines a lot in your home; for example, if your carpet is filled with dirt, wasted food and stains, ants and other harmful substances begin to set in. They can go as far as causing damage to your furniture, clothes and books, and above all, it negates the carefully crafted ambience of your home. You might want to ask yourself, “What do I do?” There are two choices before you: Buy or Rent a Carpet Cleaner? Let’s discuss! Buy or Rent a Carpet Cleaner If you decide to clean the carpet yourself, two options lie before you; you can choose to buy a machine or rent one. Purchasing a carpet cleaning machine comes with the advantage of cost-effectiveness because you won’t have to pay carpet cleaners anymore and you can have a perfect carpet cleaning whenever you decide to clean at your convenience. However, the disadvantage of having your carpet cleaning machine is the cost of maintenance, and mainly, the cleaning device you buy as a single owner is different from the carpet cleaning organization in terms of efficiency and durability. Although, you do not need a commercial-grade carpet cleaning machine, but if it is essential, you can decide to clean more manually if you are the type that appreciates a clean environment every time, but do not appreciate the stress. The option is to rent from a reputable company like Clean2Shine that makes use of high-quality carpet cleaning machines to clean a carpet in a professional way that brings back the feeling of buying your carpet for the first time. As much as renting the machine is advisable, you may not be able to handle the machine to get that perfect cleaning you are looking for. So, it is advisable to hire the service of Clean2Shine to make your home look habitable again. Hiring a professional cleaner is the preferred option among several people. Effective Carpet Cleaning Methods Before cleaning your carpet, it is essential to know the method you want to use. The method you are using to clean will help you understand how to go about the cleaning and will serve as a guide in order not to cause any damage when cleaning. Here are some popular methods you can use to get perfect cleaning: Hot Water Extraction Method Dry Carpet Cleaning Method This method is an upgrade on the hot water method as it helps to avoid any form of water damage to your carpet. It involves the use of detergents on your carpet, the part which soil particles are clinging to. The dry cleaning method ensures that your carpet is entirely vacuumed, which leaves it perfectly clean and scenting nicely. This method is also referred to as a buffer, and it is a specially made buffing machine along with spray chemicals for a perfect carpet cleaning. Bonnet cleaning requires a special cleaning agent during cleaning. However, only professionals like Clean2Shine can handle it because people who hold this bonnet cleaning are specially trained. It is essential to state that a method of cleaning a carpet is different from how to clean a carpet. Methods are ways in which one can go about cleaning a carpet, while how to clean is the practical aspect. In other words, “methods” is the theoretical while “how” is practical. Foam Cleaning Methods Although this method has not caught on, especially among business organizations, it is common in households as it appears to be a quick way for cleaning carpets. The process of foam cleaning involves two ways of using a cleaning detergent: either spreading a cleaning detergent on the carpet evenly or mixing the detergent into a bucket of water until it is soapy. If you are spreading a cleaning detergent, the foam is usually attached to a particular machine brush and is carefully placed into the carpet fibres. Through this, the foam is allowed to stay on the carpet for a short period, and dirt is removed faster due to the effect of the vacuum cleaner it is attached to. This method is usually effective because the dry foam is made of 10% liquid and 90% air, so there is low moisture which means there won’t be a residue of heat on the carpet after all is done. This method is a manual process. The foam is dipped gradually into the bucket where cleaning detergent and water is mixed, brought out and squeezed, then pressed intensely on the carpet to bring out dirt, and then squeezed into another bucket of water. However, this is also an old method that is only common with people who are unable to afford professional cleaning services. The problem is that it doesn’t clean a carpet well as it may leave behind some dirt if the foam is not squeezed well. How to do Carpet Cleaning in Your Home These simple processes can help you wash your carpet and get the desired result you are hoping for after cleaning: - Test your Carpet for Colorfastness Carpets are sometimes like a cloth whereby, after washing they lose colour quality, mostly if you use detergents and not bar soap. The same goes for carpet cleaning. Before you start, do a colourfastness test to check the durability of colour on your carpet. Endeavour to test the carpet on some parts. Through this, you will determine the level of detergents that will be used to clean it. Do not skip this part for any reason unless you want to have a faded carpet after washing. - Move Aside Your Furniture and other things After you are done with the colour testing and your carpet can withstand what cleaning detergent you are using, the next thing is to move the furniture in your room to a safer place. Protect all other things such as television, flower vase, and most importantly, cover the sockets that connect electricity to your electrical products to avoid electrocution. The main thing is to prevent your furniture from contacting excess water because it may damage them. - Clean the Unaffected Areas First To make things easier, you should clean the areas that are not stained with dirt, and after then, you can focus on the areas that are affected. The reason why you should do this first is that areas that are not affected won’t give much stress; neither do you need to apply much detergent or water. - Put in Extra Effort for Efficient Cleaning on Affected Areas Areas where furniture is sitting on, hallways, dining areas, sitting room carpets are always liable to get more dirt because people often make use of this space. Therefore, it is advisable to use a spot cleaner to treat this area for effective cleaning. For instance, Clean2Shine has a unique method of doing with the use of hot water in the treatment of these parts on a carpet, and after cleaning, there won’t be telltale signs that the carpet was cleaned. - Take your time cleaning the carpet until it is spotless Cleaning a carpet is not something you plan a specific hour of your time for; it is something you make time to do because some carpets can be very stubborn to clean. Depending on the method you plan to use, you must ensure that you do not use excessive water to ensure that you take out all the dirt hiding in the carpet fibres and use ideal cleaning detergents that suit your carpet type. Whatever method you are using to clean, be it dry or hot method, ensure that your washing is done effectively and it covers all areas that need to be washed. Even after washing, inspect the dirty parts to see if it does not need further scrubbing. - After Cleaning, Follow the After-Use Instructions One careless mistake after cleaning can ruin every effort made to keep the carpet clean, particularly if you do not follow the instructions as stated on your products or on the machine used to carry out the cleaning. Therefore, before cleaning, it is advisable to plan effectively so that you don’t accidentally step on the cleaned area while washing or after. The reality is that whether in a home or an organization, your carpet defines your level of hygiene; therefore, after-use instruction is more important because a single mistake can make all efforts go to waste. Consequently, it is best when you employ the services of a professional carpet cleaning service of a prominent firm like Clean2Shine. Your carpet is in safe hands. Important Advice while Cleaning your Carpet Common Problems with Carpet Cleaning Carpet cleaning is a technique, and that is why it is advisable to hire a carpet cleaner to help you maintain your carpet, so you don’t incur additional expense. Here are the common problems faced during carpet cleaning: Shrinkage in the Carpet The main reason why carpet shrinkage occurs is due to too much moisture which has caused it to get too wet during cleaning. Only professional cleaners can determine the amount of water that is needed to wash a carpet during cleaning. At Clean2Shine, we have experts that ensure that your carpet is examined thoroughly before washing and we get rid of moisture through the use of an extractor vacuum. Faster re-soiling often occurs in carpet cleaning, and this is due to many residues not adequately removed when rinsing. This error majorly occurs from carpet cleaners who are not professional enough in carpet cleaning. They often use too much cleaning agent or too much soap concentration. It often results in unresolved cleaning, which leaves behind some residue that causes faster re-soiling. As a professional cleaning carpet firm, Clean2Shine ensures that no standard process is skipped to ensure that your carpet does not lose quality after washing. For instance, we often use hot water to get rid of the leftover residue in the carpet, so the chances of faster re-soiling happening are zero. Bubbles and Ripples after wash Bubbles and ripples usually show up as the carpet begins to dry-off. Although they fade away as soon as the carpet is dry, it is often advised by Clean2Shine experts to wash your carpet thoroughly because your carpet needs re-stretching before cleaning. Advantage of Hiring Carpet Cleaner As a homeowner or company executive, you are responsible for the proper hygiene of your carpet, which is why you should employ a reputable firm that boasts experts in carpet cleaning. Here are the benefits of hiring a carpet cleaner: Carpet cleaning goes beyond using machines, vanish and vacuum cleaners, you need to understand the carpet texture, the level of water to use, and the best method that clean it up without damaging it. Carpet cleaning is also not about hard work, it is about smart work, and that is why you should hire a professional to clean your carpet. Professionals boast technical acumen allied with consummate experience to ensure that you get the best results every time. Removing Tough Stains with Ease Those who have tried carpet cleaning can testify to the neck and back pain that comes with it. A professional carpet cleaner knows how to clean the carpet with tactics that will make your carpet as good as new. The DIY process will leave you drained but carpet cleaners have tough cleaning agents that can remove tough stains without stress. Prevention of Mold Growth One of the reasons why mold grows on carpets is due to unprofessional cleaning, which usually involves the use of water to saturate the carpet and not allowing it to dry correctly. This results in mold growth and mildew that can cause complications to health. However, the good news is that professional cleaners like us can do an excellent job on your carpet. It Saves Time and Money If you are busy, hiring professional cleaners saves you time and money. You will get quality cleaning that will improve hygiene, whether at home or in the office. The main thing is that it saves you money from buying another expensive carpet, and above all, allows you time to focus on other things. At a time like this, when we have to do whatever we can to stay safe, a clean and healthy work or living space can go a long way and professional carpet cleaning is a great way to ensure this. It is, therefore, a good idea to invest in a service that practically guarantees your comfort and safety.

Billionaire investor Carl Icahn, in a bid to force Michael Dell to sweeten his $24.4 billion buyout proposal for Dell Inc., said he’ll come up with a higher offer for the PC maker by Friday morning. The new bid will be “vastly superior” to the founder’s offer, Icahn said Thursday on Bloomberg Television’s “Street Smart” with Trish Regan. “We’re going to come in and add into the package — which we think is superior already.” Icahn, who holds an 8.7 percent stake in Dell, has been agitating for months to try to force Michael Dell and buyout partner Silver Lake Management LLC to sweeten their $13.65-a- share offer. His latest plan would offer Dell shareholders $14 or the ability to retain equity in a publicly traded portion of the company — rather than the buyout group’s deal that takes all the shares off the table for outside investors. The increased offer will include a warrant, Icahn said. “We think the warrant will be around $20, to buy the stock at $20, and we’re going to give the shareholders a piece of that warrant,” Icahn said in the interview. “We think that will make it definitely superior. We think, after talking to a number of shareholders, that this should win the day for us. But you can’t be sure obviously.” This would be the fourth effort by Icahn to scuttle Dell’s buyout. In March, Icahn offered $15 a share in cash for as much as 58.1 percent of the stock. Then, in May, he teamed up with Southeastern Asset Management Inc. to offer investors $12 a share in cash or additional Dell stock while letting them retain stakes in a public company. Last month, he offered to help finance the last $14-a-share buyback proposal. Shareholders are set to vote on the Silver Lake-led offer next week, after an earlier effort by Icahn to block the deal in Delaware court failed. The court argued that Icahn’s offer can’t be superior to Michael Dell’s because it’s not a full takeover. Proxy advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. recommended Dell shareholders vote for the $24.4 billion buyout by Dell and Silver Lake. Glass, Lewis & Co., another shareholder adviser, also backed the buyout proposal. A vote will be held at Dell’s Round Rock, Texas, headquarters July 18. “From a public company shareholder’s perspective, if your CEO is willing to buy your falling knife for the privilege of catching it, there is probably a price at which you should let him,” ISS said in its July 7 report. In a letter to Dell shareholders, Icahn urged them to seek a higher price for their shares in court, by exercising so- called “appraisal” rights available to shareholders of companies incorporated in Delaware. An October closing date for the deal would give investors until December to decide whether they want Dell’s price or a court appraisal, he said. © Copyright 2024 Bloomberg News. All rights reserved.

Often in life, it’s the things we love most that can be the most frustrating. As a little girl, I’m sure my wife must have prayed to find a man who could cross only one eye, and yet she becomes frustrated when after a passionate kiss, she opens her eyes to find one eye looking longingly back at her and the other pinned against my nose. I tell her she looks “twice as beautiful with my eyes crossed,” but that rarely helps ease her frustration. And so it is with wine. The thing I love most about wine is the communal aspect. It comes in large bottles designed for sharing with people. Yet, trying to find a bottle to please everyone at your party can become a headache. So here are some tips: Go Light. When people say they don’t like red wines, they often cite the bitterness caused by the tannins. (Tannins are also found in tea, which can lead to that mouth-puckering bitterness when over-steeped.) Pinot Noirs and other grapes like, Gamay (found in Beaujolais), are lower in tannins. Look for California Pinot Noirs which tend to be more fruit-forward then their European counterparts. Go Old. As vines get older, they produce less fruit. So, the fruit they do produce tends to be concentrated with flavor. Wineries are proud of these wines and will often put “old vines” on the label. Now here’s the trick, old vines can produce big, bold reds which can be a turn off to some of your guests, so try to find old vine wines that have an alcohol level around 13.5%. These are usually medium-bodied fruit-driven wines with soft tannins. Pinot Gris- Pinot Gris, or Pinot Grigio as it is called in Italy, is a crowd-pleaser. Pinot Gris offers flavors of lemon and lime, along with green apple and stone fruits. It isn’t as acidic as Sauvignon Blanc, or as big or oaky as a Chardonnay. There’s a lot to like, and not much to dislike. Note: While they are the same grape, Pinot Grigios typically have more subdued fruit. For the Sweet Drinkers- If you have one sweet drinker in the bunch, while everyone else enjoys dry wines, things just got complicated. If you don’t mind going a little sweeter than what you would typically drink, try a German Riesling Kabinett. This should have enough sweetness to appease your guest, but have enough acidity to cut through the sweetness. Otherwise, just stick with the pinot gris, chances are by the end of the second glass, they will like it too. One last thing, if you are asking people to try a wine that they wouldn’t drink on their own. Prepare them. When I was little my dad told me to close my eyes and open my mouth. He gave me an olive. I love olives, but I was expecting candy, and that olive tasted awful. Taste the wine ahead of time, pick out the prevailing fruit, then as you hand them a glass, say “This is so good, it tastes like ______.” If a person is used to drinking something sweet, many wines come across as tart or bitter, so their immediate reaction will be one of disgust. By saying “This tastes like green apple” it gives them some context for what they are about to taste. I mean, who doesn’t like green apples? Final tip, when all else fails, make Sangria.

So you decided to give Scrivener a shot but found the interface quite daunting, right? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. It’s common for many writers to start rolling their eyes when they first come across the busy interface of Scrivener. That’s why most of them either drop out or spend cold hard cash to learn the program. But why would you pay someone when you can learn it for free? Yeah, you heard that right! In this post, I’ll show you how to make the most out of Scrivener step-by-step on both Windows and Mac. And by the time you finish this article, you’ll have a complete grasp of most of the functionalities of Scrivener, writing on it, editing and creating versions, and finally, export in your favorite format. So, you ready? Let’s get going. Scrivener is not as complex as it looks. It’s pretty easy and intuitive once you get the hang of it. TABLE OF CONTENTS How to get started with Scrivener Before we dive deep, it’s important to let you know that the swamped interface of Scrivener is merely a mirage. Because 99.9% of the time, you won’t need most of the functions. It takes only 5-6 tools to create a ready-to-publish piece from scratch. So, my focus will be on these essential tools so you can get a concise roadmap to use the software. You can ignore other features as most of the authors do. Let’s get started by getting familiar with the different functions of Scrivener. As soon as you open the Scrivener app, it asks you to create a project by giving it a name and selecting a template from the repository. Unless you’re working on a novel or screenplay, choose the blank page, name your project, and hit ‘create’. Once you create the project, it takes you inside the app, and this is what you come across: A blank page with lots of icons around it. Starting with the menu bar at the top, let me break down everything section-by-section. At the top we have a menu bar that consists of: - In the left side, you see standard menus like ‘File’, ‘Edit’, ‘View’, ‘Insert’, etc. to go to different functions. But don’t get intimidated because, in Scrivener, the only time you would visit this part is when you want to import or export files or if you want to take snapshots (I’ll come to it later). - Just beneath the menu options, we have a toolbar with a handful of icons. Again, the only tools we are going to need is the “Full-Screen” icon and “Compile” which is second from right and extreme right, respectively. - In the middle of the bar, we have different modes of Scrivener where the left icon is for ‘Editor Mode’, the mid one is ‘Corkboard’, and the right one is ‘Outliner’. We’ll talk about these three modes in detail in the “How to organize content” section. - And finally, at the right side, we have a tiny search bar to search within a document or project. And a big blue ‘i’ icon that opens the inspector pane. Now, coming down to the left portion of the interface. You see a panel called ‘Binder’. Binder is the control room of your project. It’s divided into three categories: - Draft: This is where all your actual writing is stored. - Research: As the name suggests, the place where you can store all your research notes, images, and even web pages. - Trash: The place where all your deleted files end up in. It’s like the ‘Recycle Bin’ of your computer. Binder is basically the navigation bar of Scrivener where you can create or navigate through all the sections of your document. At the bottom, there’s a gear, folder, and document icon. While the folder and document icon can be used to add a separate folder and document to the project respectively, you can use the gear icon to rename an existing document or folder, and also to send it to trash. Now, we have conquered the left panel, shift your focus to the right where the inspector panel is waiting for us. You won’t be able to see it until you click the big blue ‘i’ icon on the top right corner. Once you click on it, it opens a whole different set of features that might make your head spin for a while. But fret not, it’s not as messy as it looks. The inspector panel has three different sections. 1. Synopsis: You can write a short description of a particular chapter or section of the project. 2. General Meta-Data: This section is handy if you write multiple drafts of your novel or screenplay in the same project. That way, you can add labels (as Chapter or rough) and status (like first draft, second draft, finished, etc.) to your documents. Otherwise, keep it as is. 3. The third section depends on which function you choose from the toolbar just above the Synopsis section. By default, it remains in ‘Notes’ that opens a yellow text box at the bottom where you can enter all your notes on the go while writing. It looks something like this: Besides ‘Notes’, it has the ‘Reference’, ‘Keyword’, ‘Custom Meta-Data’, ‘Snapshot’, and ‘Comment & Footnotes’ sign. While the Reference tool enables you to add a local file, folder, or webpage for future reference, ‘Keyword’ lets you tag specific keywords to your files. It is useful when you have a pile of documents, and you are looking for a specific one. Just enter the keyword tagged with that doc in the search box, and it returns all the files tagged with that particular keyword. It narrow down your search and save time. Its neighbor feature ‘Meta-Data’ also performs similarly. However, I would advise you to ignore the Meta-Data’ part to simplify the whole writing and organizing process. Next to the meta-data field, there’s a camera icon that denotes the Snapshots section. This is where you can find all the snapshots (I’ll talk about it in a moment). And finally, at extreme right, you can find the comment tool that allows you to add comments as well as footnotes to your doc. The process is the same as you do in Word or Google Doc. Select a word or phrase and click ‘+’ in the top right corner to add a comment. If you want to remove it, hit ‘-’ and the job is done. As simple as that! At last, it’s time to explore the minimalist bottom bar. As you can see in the picture above, there’s nothing special here to mention. In the right side, there’s a small circle (looks like a dartboard) that lets you set a maximum word limit for a particular document. Use it when you’re working on a blog post or short story that has a specific word limit associated with it. Otherwise, I don’t prefer touching it. The mid section of the bottom bar indicates the total number of words written in the current doc. And in far left, you have the option to bump up the size of fonts. And finally, the big white space is where all the action happens. The text formatting pane is just above it, and it’s the same ordinary one that we see in any word processor. And in the far right, you have the facility to split the screen vertically or horizontally. When should you do it? I’ll let you know in a moment. So with that, you are now fully aware of the Scrivener interface. I hope it won’t haunt you anymore. Now you can start doing what you’ve bought it for: write and organize content. How to start writing content You can either start typing words right away or import your existing work on Scrivener. Since it supports almost all the popular formats, you shouldn’t face any issues importing your files even if you’ve written it on Final Draft (another screenwriting app). Go to File, select Import from the drop-down menu, and click ‘Files…’. Select the file you want to work on and click Import in the next window. Within a few seconds, your chosen file will be there on your Scrivener screen. In case, if you want to add some quick notes while writing, open the inspector pane by clicking the blue ‘i’ icon on the far right, and dump everything there. However, keep in mind that you can add only text notes. You can’t insert images or add webpages. For that, Scrivener provides you a dedicated section in the Binder pane marked as ‘Research’. Right click on it, point over Add, and click ‘New Text’. It’ll open a document where you can store all your notes whether they’re images or words. It also lets you keep webpages. All you need to do is repeat the same process, but instead of ‘New Text’, pick Add webpage and enter the URL and title in the new window and click ‘okay’. The funny part is, you can access the webpage even when you’re offline. Now, you might be wondering, “Hey, do I always need to flip back and forth between my research and writing doc while working? The answer is no. Whenever I write a piece that requires heavy research, I always split the screen vertically, and while the left part shows my actual writing; I keep my research doc open on the right side. And how do I do that? Simple, just click on the white space inside the right side screen and click on the research doc in Binder. It’ll open that doc on the right side of the screen. This is how I save at least half an hour every day and keep my momentum going. And I would recommend you to follow the same steps unless you want to waste hours jumping between multiple docs. Now many of us have this habit of working on sessions, and we set a goal to write a specific number of words in one go. Scrivener knows it very well that’s why it lets you create sessions and monitor word count if you go to Document > Project Target. Set a specific target according to your capacity and click okay. I love using sessions whenever I work on a long-form blog post like an ultimate guide or an eBook. It helps me finish long writing assignments in a short time without feeling overwhelming. And you know the best part? Scrivener saves everything automatically. So there’s no chance of damage even if you forgot to hit ‘Ctrl S’ after a rigorous writing session. Similar to Sessions, I can’t imagine writing without the Full-Screen mode of Scrivener. Because personally, my focus game is so fragile that I can get distracted even by the ping of a notification. That’s why to block all these interruptions and of course, to escape from the jam-packed interface of Scrivener, I turn the full-screen mode on by clicking on the arrow icon. It blurs the background and pushes it backward, so the only thing you see is the current page you’re working on. Additionally, you can control how much screen the page captures and how blurry the background should be by increasing or decreasing the paper width and background fade at the bottom (just move your mouse to the bottom, and it’ll show up). Now the question is: How can I have my notes on the same screen when the full-screen mode is on? Do I need to go on and off full-screen mode just to confirm a source or take a quick look at my notes? Again, the answer is no? Hover your mouse down and click on the inspector (i) icon and there you go. You have all your notes next to your writing doc. And just beside the inspector icon, you have the ‘Go to’ option, that takes you straight to your research docs or any document while the full-screen mode remains intact. So this is how you can make full use of the full-screen mode. And once you’re done writing the first part or chapter, always write the next chapter or section in a different doc. Don’t worry about how you’ll export all the bits and pieces together because when you hit ‘compile’, it’ll stitch the whole document together. So create a new text file by right-clicking on your current doc in the Binder, hover your mouse over Add and click Add New Text. It makes the organizing part a breeze. Wanna see how? How to organize content Scrivener’s ability to organize content is the primary attribute that separates it from other software. Before I show you how to use this power, take a quick flashback to the first section where I introduced you to the three different modes of Scrivener – Editor, Corkboard, and Outliner. This is where these three modes come handy. It doesn’t matter where you’re organizing your project; there’s only one way to do it – drag and drop. When you’re in the editor, shift your entire focus in the Binder panel. It contains all your documents, so select the one you want to change, drag it, and drop it where you want to place that section. For example, if you want to interchange the spots of section 5 with section 3. For this, select section 5, drag it, and drop it between section 2 and 3. If you drop it just over section 3, it’ll become a sub-section of section 3. So, always drop the document beyond the section that you want to replace while arranging docs in editor mode. If you find it challenging to arrange documents in Binder, Corkboard could be your favorite place to organize content. It lays out your entire project as index cards where each card, has the document title on it with a synopsis (if you’ve added any). Again, select a card, drag it, and drop it over another card to exchange their spots. You can see these changes take place in the Binder when you shift again to editor mode. And finally, the Outliner mode is where you will find the headings and subheadings of your project as a spreadsheet. It’s similar to the ‘list view’ we see on our computers. To re-arrange different sections, perform the same process you do in Binder. Yes, not just drag and drop over the section, but go a little further. And that’s how you organize your content in Scrivener. Just remember three words – ‘drag and drop’. How to create versions and export It’s a common scenario for a writer to spend an hour writing a paragraph, scrap everything out in the next moment. Write another paragraph, and finally scrap out that para too to go back to the older one. It’s damn annoying to go back and forth between different versions when you’re not sure about the perfect copy. But with Scrivener, it’s a breeze. If you’re not sure about the latest version of your document, save it as a snapshot and use it later, in case the future copy doesn’t turn out as per your expectation. Go to Document > Snapshot > Take a Snapshot. In a second, it stores the current doc as a snapshot. Similarly, you can take as many snapshots as you want, and you can find all of them in the inspector panel under the Snapshot section (yes, the camera icon). If you want, you can rename each snapshot by double-clicking on it. And when you select one (single-click), it shows the copy in the text box below. If a particular version seems a better fit for your project, hit ‘Roll Back’ in the top-right corner, and it’ll restore that version. At last, when the editing part is done, you are ready to export your documents in your favorite formats. One of the significant benefits of using Scrivener is, it makes formatting effortless. For example, if you format your document on MS Word for e-reading devices, it may take hours depending upon the size of your document. But with Scrivener, it takes seconds. Go to Compile and in the pop-up wizard choose an appropriate format in the ‘Format as’ field- for example, ePub and Mobi for eBooks, print-ready PDF for paperbacks or the plain Word document. Next, choose a format in the ‘Format for’ field,click Compile. And within a minute your file will be there in your desired folder. Now, you’re free to send that doc to your publisher, editor or even to your friend; the choice is yours. If you are on the market for an app that allows you to export from Google Docs to WordPress in 1-click, then we recommend checking out Wordable. It will not only clean and properly format your HTML, but also compress images, open links in a new tab, automatically set featured images, or create a table of contents, and lots more. Wow… that was easy, ha! Scrivener is not as complex as it looks. It’s pretty easy and intuitive once you get the hang of it. Of course, there are other features that I didn’t cover in this post, but the real question is: Do you really need them? Not even the pro authors use all the features of Scrivener. They stick to most of the tools we discussed here. In fact, I’ve also been using Scrivener for the last couple of months, and even I don’t know when was the last time I added meta-data to my documents or used the collection tool. So fret not. Go through the entire tutorial while keeping the Scrivener app open for faster learning and you’ll be able to tackle any writing project successfully. (And if you still want something more simple, check out these Scrivener alternatives instead.)

By Gwendolyn Hawks-Blue Diversity and Inclusion Team co-chair Millions of lives have been affected by the actions and work of Black people of African descent. Many people know little of this history. When we become aware of it, we see more accurately the important part Black people played in developing modern society. The individuals in this article made Responsible Choices that brought good into the world. They initiated or created processes and inventions that saved lives, established opportunities for ethnicities to work together, labored to build God’s shalom and unity among ethnic groups, and helped eliminate discrimination. I am so pleased we are acknowledging and celebrating a few of their actions. Enslaved Onesimus was a gift to Puritan minister Cotton Mather from his congregation in 1706. Onesimus told Mather about the centuries-old tradition of inoculation practiced in Africa. Mather persuaded Zabdiel Boylston to experiment with the procedure when smallpox hit Boston in 1721. Onesimus’s traditional African practice was used to inoculate American soldiers during the Revolutionary War, introducing the concept of inoculation to the USA. (See www.pbs.org/video/benjamin-franklins-tragic-association-with-inoculation-ldjsc.) Dr. Daniel Hale Williams practiced at a time when Black people could not receive care at White hospitals, and Black doctors and nurses could not practice at them. Columbia University Irving Medical Center reports: Determined that Chicago should have a hospital where both [B]lack and [W]hite doctors could study and where [B]lack nurses could receive training, Williams rallied for a hospital open to all races. After several months of hard work, he opened Provident Hospital and Training School for Nurses on May 4, 1891, the country’s first interracial hospital and nursing school. Provident also was the first Black-owned and operated hospital in the USA. George Graves and William Fuller, appointees of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, succeeded in creating congregations made of White and Black people in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Although challenged by racial prejudices and the mindsets of the day that cautioned against interracial engagements, both men expressed the desire to take the gospel to all and to engage with other religious groups. Graves wrote: In the name of Jesus Christ, let all Christians unite, and let us as ministers of Christ gather people together, high and low, rich and poor, to the glory of Christ and the benefit of humanity. Harry Passman was among the White converts William Fuller baptized into the church. Because of his Jewish heritage, Passman represented the Reorganized Church in Palestine throughout the 1920s. Garrett Morgan in 1912 invented the “Safety Hood and Breathing Device,” which came to be known as the gas mask. Also, after seeing an automobile collide with a horse and carriage, he invented an automatic traffic signal and sold the device to General Electric. Today’s modern traffic signal lights are based on his design. Dr. Charles Drew in 1939 developed a technique that dramatically increased the shelf life of blood and plasma. His development of the blood plasma bank has given a second chance of life to millions. Pauli Murray’s vision was for a society that valued diversity and rallied around common human virtues. A graduate of Yale Law School, Murray’s written works profoundly challenged the legal foundation of racial discrimination and contributed immensely to the dismantling of segregation and discrimination. The first Black woman ordained as an Episcopal priest, Murray also co-founded the National Organization for Women. This minuscule bit of history helps dispel myths, inaccuracies, and damaging omissions that distort perceptions about Black people. Individuals recognized in this article focused beyond themselves and demonstrated courage, perseverance, and commitment to live their unique callings. Facing tremendous challenges, they each made Responsible Choices that were for the good of all. Their accomplishments show how all of society benefits when individuals are able to develop their talents and have their gifts received. Hopefully, awareness of these stories will expand our appreciation and celebration of the rich diversity of history and inspire us to make choices for the good of all, even when challenged.

Does your website look great on mobile phones, tablets, desktops, or a giant projector? If you can’t answer “yes” to all of these questions, your website isn’t responsive. You’ll need a responsive web design partner to make it happen. Responsive Websites From Start To Finish What Is “Responsive Website Design”? You know it when you see it. Responsive web design is when a website is easily navigable and recognizable on any device or screen used. If you have a presentation to do, and want to show your website on a 10-foot diagonal projector screen, it should look stunning. If you want to show a potential client your site on their iPhone 3G from 2008 that they still have for some unknown reason, it should look good on that too. To make a responsive website, you need an expert. That’s where Cohlab comes in. You can’t know the size of every device that will visit your website. You can’t predict what future screen sizes will be created either. So you won’t be able to set a specific pixel or inch cut-off for when the website will make changes to it’s layout. That’s why proportional changes are extremely important to responsive web design. Assigning a proportion of the screen to your website sections allows them to flex slightly as different sized screens visit the site. Then, set a hard cut-off at a specific pixel width where a different set of proportions take over, i.e. sections no longer sit side-by-side but stack for mobile devices. In this way, while you can’t predict future screen sizes, you can give each class of devices a website layout which works best for them, while flexing between similar-sized screens without loss of functionality or design. Similarly to proportional changes, you can convert your menu from a header of items into a drop-down hamburger-style menu, where a single tap or click drops a menu list down over the website, allowing for easy navigation while not cluttering a small screen. Easily the most important part of a responsive website is speed. You have to have a fast website which quickly recognizes the size or type of device being used, and adjusts the responsive web design on the fly. Besides – the point behind responsive web design is to make the experience great for users of every type of device. And every type of device loves a fast website. Your images will need to be highly-curated. In order to work in a responsive web design, images must be high fidelity to not become blurry in larger screens, while maintaining a small size to increase your website’s speed. Images should also be well-framed, to ensure must-see content isn’t cut-off in various screen sizes and remains centered. Responsive Website Tech Learn how we at Cohlab design responsive websites, what platforms we use, and tools we use to audit responsive websites. Responsive Website Design CMS / Platforms Trustdyx Responsive Websites Cohlab’s very own Trustdyx CMS was built from the ground-up right here in Central Minnesota, by Minnesotan hands and Minnesotan minds. While Trustdyx’s main feature is high security, it is also a natively responsive website platform, purpose built to be lightweight and mobile-friendly out of the box. WordPress Responsive Websites WordPress is the most popular CMS platform in the world, with more than 35% of the internet using it to power their websites. While WordPress websites are popular and vary widely in design, we use a tried and tested custom theme which is flexible enough to handle any screen size. Responsive Website Tools ‘Toggle Device’ In Google Chrome Dev Tools While the website is still in testing phases, you can test your responsive website within Google Chrome’s website development tools. Using the “Toggle Device Toolbar”, you can view your test website using a variety of devices, from the Motorola G4 to iPhone X, iPad Pro, or Samsung Galaxy Fold. You can also set it directly to “Responsive” and then adjust the pixels to the screen you may be testing for. Once the website is live, you can definitely test it across an array of devices by borrowing them from friends, or asking friends or coworkers to complete specific tasks on the website. This can give you a broad range of real user feedback. Google Lighthouse Audit After a website is live, running a Google Lighthouse Audit through both the Desktop and Mobile options can help you better understand where you can improve your responsive web design most. A Google Lighthouse Audit looks at performance, accessibility, best practices, and SEO from Google’s perspective of search results. They want the best of the best, so when you run a lighthouse audit from their emulated mobile device, you’re going to get great advice on code and script fixes you may never notice with the naked eye. Responsive Website Design FAQ How do I make my website responsive? If you’re creating a simple website, some DIY website providers will be able to be responsive out of the box. If the website you’re planning is extensive in any way or needs special features, you’re going to want to partner with a responsive web design firm who can build a responsive website from the ground up. Does Google prefer responsive websites? Yes, definitively. Google knows that most website visits and searches are done via mobile device, and have been for years. Therefore, a website which looks good and is easy-to-use on any device is going to be preferred to a desktop-only website. You cannot win in search results with a non-responsive website. How can you tell if a website is responsive? You can test the website yourself by using a desktop computer and a mobile device to see if it’s just as easy to use on both. Or you can scroll up on this page to the “Responsive Website Tools” section and try one of those. Where are some responsive website design examples?

Friend.tech has spread out to the entire Crypto community on X platform like a storm. It has been getting attractions, capital inflows, and bringing opportunities for everyone involved. So, what exactly is Friend.tech? What is Friend.tech? Friend.tech is a new social app built on Base, the new Layer 2 network from Coinbase which was launched recently. The app allows users to tokenize their social network. In essence, people can sell “shares” of themselves, and these share owners can privately chat with the person they own shares in. To initiate engagement, users must acquire an invitation code and link their X accounts (formerly known as Twitter). Upon satisfying these initial steps, users are required to inject a minimum of 0.01 $ETH into the Base network. The deposit grants users access to the Friend.tech application and its array of features. How do people monetize with Friend.tech? There are currently two ways to make money with Friend.tech - “Buy low and Sell high” shares of others Users can choose to join certain channels, earning a share of the selected channel by paying the base price. This base amount serves as the participation fee. If users later decide to leave the channel, they can liquidate their group shares. By this method, whenever a user buys a share at such a price and sells it higher, he would profit from that trade, and vice versa. - Own a quality account The fee on Friend.tech is distributed as follows: - 5% of the share price goes to the Friend Tech treasury. - 5% of the share price goes to the person that you’re buying or selling the share from. Obviously, the more dynamically a share is traded, the more revenue the share owner receives. Some of the top accounts have now generated up to $27K in revenue. Friend.tech also distributed “points” for users every Friday. It’s still unclear what actually contributes to getting these points, but supposedly it’s mostly based on the fees you generate by buying and selling shares. Several Friend.tech statistics The below statistics are cited from our homemade source on Dune. Until now, there have been over 1M cumulative transactions on Friend.tech, making a total of over $6M in fees. The market has been so dynamic these days with over 50K transactions per day, whereas the figure last week had only been around 15K transactions. More and more traders are participating in Friend.tech, making this app hotter than ever. Currently, there are a total of 94K traders on Friend.tech.

To enable a number of emerging applications, efforts from industry and academia have started to focus on defining 6G systems, in which more stringent requirements than those imposed on 5G systems are being considered. In particular, some 6G applications may require extremely low-latency on the order of 0.1ms, through which practical designs of channel coding can be investigated based on Finite-Blocklength Coding (FBC). In this paper, we focus on a joint FBC scheme over multi-user downlinks in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), in which only several symbol durations are available for users within a requirement of extremely low-latency. Since a higher coding rate is obtained by enlarging the blocklength of FBC, we jointly encode users' data bits over their allocated resources, through which an enlarged blocklength is attained. Specifically, we first formulate the multi-user joint encoding design with a matrix-based method. Then, we present the optimal power-constrained throughput within the extremely low-latency requirement by formulating a nonlinear bipartite matching problem. We finally demonstrate the benefit resulting from the joint FBC in terms of each user's maximum obtainable distance. With the distance to each user varying, we also perform an analysis of the variation of the optimal power-constrained throughput.

The topological magnetoelectric effect in a three-dimensional topological insulator is a novel phenomenon, where an electric field induces a magnetic field in the same direction, with a universal coefficient of proportionality quantized in units of e2/2h. Here, we propose that the topological magnetoelectric effect can be realized in the zero-plateau quantum anomalous Hall state of magnetic topological insulators or a ferromagnet-topological insulator heterostructure. The finite-size effect is also studied numerically, where the magnetoelectric coefficient is shown to converge to a quantized value when the thickness of the topological insulator film increases. We further propose a device setup to eliminate nontopological contributions from the side surface. |Physical Review B - Condensed Matter and Materials Physics |Published - Aug 10 2015 All Science Journal Classification (ASJC) codes - Electronic, Optical and Magnetic Materials - Condensed Matter Physics

Thanos tells the Silver Surfer of the imbalance Death was speaking of. The Surfer blasts him to show that he is powerful and will not be tricked, but Thanos is unfazed by the attack. He takes the Surfer to Earth as a demonstration. He says the populations of the universe are growing incredible and people are living longer. They are only setting themselves up for population disasters and their own extinction. He shows Surfer the future of a destroyed world. He then takes him to the planet Salaria. The inhabitants are peaceful creatures that do nothing but reproduce. He estimates that in the near future the planet will resort to famine and cannibalism. This further proves that all planets are part of the imbalance. What he plans to do for Death is destroy fifty percent of the universe's population. Surfer says he will stop him from doing this. Thanos tells him that not only will he allow it, he will help him. He informs the Surfer that when he transported from Earth to Salaria, a bacteria on the Silver Surfer's skin that is harmless on Earth while cause great pestilence on Salaria. He tells Surfer they can either fight or Surfer can rush to Salaria and save the remains of the population. He claims that he he manipulated the position of the time flow and half of the residents should be dead by now. The Surfer returns to find piles of bodies. He cures them of their disease. Thanos laughs at his triumph and is heard by him enemy, the godlike Chronos. Knowing that Thanos is alive again he resurrects Drax the Destroyer to combat him.

Lebanon is now in the throes of a deep political and economic crisis that had been brewing for years, and the communication industry is hit hard. Naji Boulos, founder of Jicebe Creative Consultancy, former Managing Director of Memac Ogilvy Lebanon, and past president of the IAA-Lebanon chapter gives a harsh but realistic assessment. What is the impact of the current political/social crisis on the advertising and media industries? Following years of economic mismanagement, Lebanon is facing dark days and the impact on all businesses is catastrophic. For the advertising industry, it’s a disaster – something that we have never seen before. 2020 will be the worst year since the end of the [civil] war [in 1990]. In the past, the industry always recovered quickly from market turmoil, because there was hope and the Lebanese were confident in their future. But today’s deteriorating economic conditions and the deep financial crisis are strong signals that the economy will take time to recover. This crisis is enormously damaging consumer confidence, the workforce, and companies’ cash flow and bottom lines. It will need months to get back to normal. What’s the estimated drop in ad spend? For the first time in more than 22 years, in 2019, Lebanon’s estimated advertising spend in media went below $100 million, a drop of 40% from $150/160 million; and since the beginning of the crisis [in October], we are witnessing a [additional] 90% drop. The [next] government will have an enormous challenge to regain market confidence and boost the economy. What are the economic mechanisms behind the crisis? To understand the situation, we need to draw a parallel between 1987 and 2019, both years that saw the Lebanese pound (LBP) crash. Tracing back the events between 1975 and 1987, it is evident that, despite the ongoing conflict, the Lebanese economy was stable and people’s spending power remained relatively constant. In 1987, however, things took a turn for the worse all of a sudden. The dramatic devaluation of the Lebanese pound, coupled with a high inflation rate, presented a serious danger to the wealth of individuals and companies, who then sought refuge in the US dollar, using it as a replacement for the LBP as a means of exchange and even as a unit of account. Advertising became one of the first services to be ‘dollarized’ in late 1987, which proved to be a successful bid to create stability in the midst of a 730% hyperinflation of the LBP. Against all odds, by 1988, the market had improved. Today, the situation is completely different. Due to a shortage of dollars in the market, banks are maintaining a certain level of dollars liquidity to buy imports. People are going back to using the LBP. If the pegged exchange rate, in place since 1997, is still LBP1,507 to $1, the real price of the dollar climbed to LBP2,500 to 1$, creating a 50% inflation in some categories – mainly food. Under these circumstances, advertisers have other priorities than spending their money on advertising – like securing merchandise, paying salaries and other expenses. How are different players affected? For example, are independent agencies more exposed than international networks? The crisis started well before October 17th; most of the agencies had already taken some strict measures to downsize their operations. The revolution accelerated the process even further. Multinationals can manage to survive by outsourcing their services to their network or by servicing clients outside Lebanon. This is probably the only way to sustain their operations. What worries me is that the majority of historical regional agencies are not owned by Lebanese admen anymore, so the emotional link with Lebanon doesn’t exist anymore. Today, holdings are under tremendous financial pressure and Lebanon is not a priority market anymore. Independent agencies will have more difficulties in the short term due to the volatility of their revenue scheme. Some have already downsized their operation or cut salaries by half. There is no other way. What strategies can industry players put in place to survive this crisis? Creative agencies have to find ways to export their services, which is doable as they have a double competitive edge: talent and prices. Media is in a more difficult situation because they cannot rely on foreign revenue unless they change their business model. The list of [media] closures in 2019 (even before the revolution) is dramatic: Future TV, LDC TV, Al Moustakbal newspaper, Femme, Noun, Elle Oriental, L’Officiel, Snob Hasna’ magazines, Al Jaras radio, to name a few. The few print media that are still available should fight for their survival by asking shareholders to provide financial support until business gets better. However, since print advertising is in decline worldwide, print media should push their digital versions further. The situation in audiovisual media is odd. Viewership increased by 107% during the first weeks of the revolution, but this didn’t materialize into more revenue for the obvious reasons listed above. The threat is that TV stations will rely more and more on political financing and funding. Radios are in a slightly better position and might survive because of their low operational costs and by cutting their expenses (canceling most of the programs). Outdoor companies should drastically reduce the number of billboards in the streets – Lebanon is one of the most cluttered outdoor scenes in the world, with thousands of panels – with the double objective of decreasing their expenses (rent and municipality license fees) and lowering the supply to increase market prices. What would be the upside, if any, to this crisis? I am optimistic and positive by nature but in this situation, I don’t see any upside except maybe one: the revolution has revealed so many talents! It has proved that we’ve moved from an era of communication dictatorship to an era of participative communication democracy, where each citizen becomes a transmitter, constantly exchanging with thousands of other compatriots on social media. Each citizen has turned into a copywriter, graphic designer, tagger, musician, singer photographer, filmmaker, writer, blogger… thus becoming a creator of images and messages. Creativity has become everyone’s business; the situation on the ground has become a source of inspiration and an inexhaustible reservoir of ideas. The amount of content created, ranging from amateur to professional work, is massive. Anonymous people seeking neither recognition nor glory wanted to express, in their own way, their state of mind at the moment. What outcome do you foresee, if possible, for the industry? Every crisis has an end. Look at what’s happening in Greece or Cyprus. Lebanon will prevail, as usual; it might take some time for the country to bounce back but there’s always hope. Lebanon is known to be a resilient country and the Lebanese to be creative and able to adapt to any situation. This is one of the most difficult periods the country has ever gone through. Things will never be the same, especially for the media industry that lost many players. More than ever, industry players should unite to position Lebanon as the creative, digital and tech cluster of the region, because Beirut is home to the talent that can best adapt to different cultural backgrounds. This will not only boost employment and foreign investments but will have a major impact on Lebanon’s economic recovery.

virtual server config i have a requirement wherein the url https://xyz.com:9999 will be accessed over the internet. Now once the NATing is done by the firewall, the traffic will be passed to virtual server (188.8.131.52:443) with client and server ssl profiles applied. Now the question is do i need to apply the pool with server:port (10.10.10.10:9999) under the resource tab of the VS? Also the virtual server destination port should be 443 or 9999 ? I am confused here. any help will be appreciated . Well, this is up to you. Per my experience, some customers prefer to offload the SSL decryption task to the F5 unit, so that they don't have to perform additional decriptyon on the backend server farm, saving resources. This is usually also allows more agile administration, because you'll only need to renew the certificates on one appliance (BIG-IP) instead of every server. Other customers prefer to perform SSL encryption in the backend as well because they prioritize information security across the whole network. You might want to discuss this with your engineering team, and if your servers require the SSL handshake to be performed, you'll need a serverSSL profile.

Hi, I am new here, I would like to know how to do do a console app using openfl. I read that I need to override the create method in my application class. So could anyone show an “Hello World” example of how to do this? This is possible – we use it for the OpenFL and Lime command-line tools. The easiest example I know of are the OpenFL SWF processing tools. First you need an HXML file, such as this one: -cp .. you will want -lib openfl probably The next thing is a Haxe class for your tools. There are two main components to this, the standard static function main entry point, but also the __init__ function if you need any of the Lime native binaries (which you will need if you do Lime has the lime.tools.helpers package, which has a lot of helpers we use in the command-line tools for Lime and OpenFL for running processes, creating directories, copying files and other useful utility functions. I am interested in making this easier in the future, perhaps an official Lime command-line build target? Wow, Thank you, It works! An official Lime command-line build target would be nice!

Financials Cloud Cash Management - VAT/GST on External Transactions SummaryCatering for VAT/GST for transactions such as Bank Fees or Merchant Charges Our client has configured Bank Statement Transaction Creation Rules to cater for the charges such as bank fees or merchant charges. These transactions would contain a tax component (VAT/GST) which needs to be recognized. External transactions do not cater for tax currently. One work-around would be to use AR Miscellaneous receipt transactions to allow for the allocation of a tax component, however due to the volume of the charges coming through (client is in retail and owns hundreds of stores which then incur charges across each merchant card i.e. amex, visa/mastercard etc) and the process is manual being somewhat manual i.e. manual entry via form, or entry via spreadsheet the overhead becomes unacceptable.

I’ve owned a first generation My Cloud (single disk) for years and it has been plugged into my router with a fixed IP of 192.168.1.2 without many issues for all that time. We had a power cut last night. Before the power cut the NAS was accessible, afterwards it is not. The power came back on and the front LED on the device remains a solid white - it never goes blue. I believe that this means the device has begun its startup - but it never changes. I have left it overnight and it remains a solid white this morning. The device does not appear in the router’s list of connected devices. The LAN port on the back of the My Cloud only has a single flashing green LED indicating activity. The other LED is not on - I believe that indicates no link has been established. This morning I have also tried a power cycle of the device without having any LAN cable plugged in. I wanted to check if the LED eventually changed to blinking amber - which should indicate a network cable is not plugged in - but it doesn’t. Nor is there a solid red light, indicating a fault, either. The My Cloud front LED remains a solid white all the time. The green LED on the LAN port indicating an established link is not lit at any time except for about 8 seconds or so after power cable is inserted, then it goes off and only the activity LED flashes. I have tried a different port at the router side, and a switch. I have tried to press the recessed reset switch for 5 seconds - nothing appeared to happen. Can anyone recommend next steps? My objective would be to have access to the data. I have just attempted the 40-second reset… removing power, holding the recessed button down for 40 seconds while power is restored. Still a solid white light and no indication that anything is going on. Check the network router or gateway administration page to see if it indicates the My Cloud obtaining an IP address. If the network router/gateway indicates the My Cloud is connected to the local network try accessing the My Cloud Dashboard. Single-Bay My Cloud OS 3 Dashboard Access It is also possible the My Cloud is scanning and fixing drive issues or indexing the drive after being powered on that may result in the My Cloud not showing a front blue LED. Sometimes that drive check/index could take a considerable amount of time (hours to a day depending on # of files and drive capacity). Thanks. Yeah, I’ve already confirmed there’s no IP address being assigned to it - my suspicion has been all along that, somehow, the network interface got fried. The single flashing LED on the LAN port was the biggest clue. I don’t know that for sure, but no 4 second or 40 second reset seems to do anything in that regard. I’ve moved beyond this stage in the last hour… I’ve ordered a 2-bay QNAP from Amazon and some disks - it’s time to retire this poor WD darling, I don’t mind - she’s served me very well for years, but I think the best strategy going forward is some kind of mirrored setup with easily removable disks. But first - can I access the data on this disk? Well, I’ve broken the disk out of its WD casing… and plugged it into a Windows 7 PC via a UGREEN USB IDE/SATA gadget… it could have been hit-or-miss. But the drive, when given power, starts and Windows has shown up drive letters of D:, E:, F:, G:, H: and I: - they are all an unrecognised file system - no surprise there. Next steps… as I don’t have Linux… will be to grab some utility to allow Windows to ‘see’ the data, yes? If you have any advice, I’ll be grateful. I saw someone else comment that the disk inside one of these isn’t a WD Red - but mine definitely is. Using Paragon’s Linux File Systems for Windows trial software… managed to mount L: and see a folder called shares which seems to contain all my data. Copying over now… For future knowledge you could have created a Linux boot disc or boot flash drive to boot the computer with to access the extracted My Cloud Hard Drive. Most people found WD Red’s within their older single bay My Clouds. Example of how to create a bootable Linux distro on a DVD or USB flash drive: Here is the User Manual. You need to look at chapter two LEDs. Did you have it set up for use on your home network only? I’ve kinda moved on, now… it was definitely never getting an IP address, no matter what I did. The case is in bits on the floor… the disk has been removed and plugged into a USB gizmo and I’ve moved the data to two USB disks in preparation for when my QNAP basic model arrives. I feel OK, now, as I have no NAS, but I do have the data across physical devices. I’ve depended on the My Cloud doing its thing for too long - time to bite the bullet and try and do things more properly from now on.

“Ireland’s Broadsheet: New ‘Shallow Hype’ on the George Gibney Story,” July 15, https://concussioninc.net/?p=14541 by Irvin Muchnick Last week we looked at the latest iteration of the now two-year-old contorted defense, by Swimming World editor Craig Lord, of the person and entity most credibly suspected of having engineered the 1995 Colorado coaching job of disgraced Irish Olympic coach George Gibney. That would be John Leonard and the American Swimming Coaches Association (ASCA), of which the elderly Leonard is the former boss. As Charles R. Breyer, a senior federal judge who is the brother of Supreme Court Associate Justice Stephen Breyer, put it in 2016, ASCA is accused of having “greased the wheels for Gibney’s relocation.” The suspicion flows most powerfully from a coaching job offer letter in Gibney’s immigration file, as revealed in my Freedom of Information Act lawsuit before Judge Breyer against the Department of Homeland Security. Since the letter was released by the government in almost completely redacted form, we don’t yet know who sent it and why. What we do know, however, is that trouble-shooting coaches’ visas and placing them in jobs abroad has long been ASCA’s stock-in-trade. We also know that Leonard brazenly proclaimed to me in 2012 that ASCA has “no investigatory powers, funds, or responsibility…. We do not have an organization that deals directly with children, nor is that part of our purpose in any way, shape, or form, according to our formative documents from 1958 and thereafter.” Really? A trade group of swimming coaches has “no responsibility” for dealings “with children”? Not in “any way, shape, or form”? Finally, we know that Gibney’s former assistant coach in Ireland, Peter Banks, has bounced back and forth from high positions in both Irish and American swimming, and was one of Leonard’s top aides at ASCA during the period of Gibney’s passage here on a mysterious diversity lottery visa. None of the foregoing got addressed in 2018 by Craig Lord, a former British newspaper journalist, when he wrote, on his soon-to-be-shuttered website SwimVortex, that Leonard had shown him documents exonerating ASCA in the Gibney affair. Lord refused to publish the alleged documents in his possession, or to quote and contextualize them. Gibney’s tenure with USA Swimming’s North Jeffco club in Arvada, Colorado, ended disastrously almost as soon as it began in 1995 — marking the apparent finale of a coaching career dotted by dozens of cases of sexual abuse on two continents. Might it be that it was only at that point that Leonard and ASCA decided they no longer wished to continue enabling Gibney? In his new article last week, Lord, who joined Swimming World after closing SwimVortex, added a non sequitur doubling down on his weirdly self-conclusory Leonard apologia. “In the course of our own research,” Lord wrote at the end of a piece almost entirely devoted to something else, “Swimming World has had sight of letters in which the American Swimming Coaches Association alerts potential employers to Gibney’s past, as well as other exchanges in which Gibney complains, through a lawyer, to ASCA that he is being prevented from gaining work by ASCA’s interventions.” Once again, Lord is playing the card “I have in my hands documents …” — yet not disclosing the actual contents of this purported reverse smoking gun. The reference to ASCA came at the end of last week’s Swimming World piece piling onto hype published a few days earlier, in the Irish Times, of an upcoming podcast documentary series on Gibney from BBC Sounds. Just to be clear once again, I do not know if the podcast, Where Is George Gibney?, will have anything substantially new. But regardless of whether this Anglo-Irish production has anything substantially new, I recognize that the mere existence of contemporary Gibney coverage at major media platforms, even if incomplete and inadequate from my perspective, could help push over the top the current U.S. federal government investigation of Gibney’s Catch-22 resident alien status. (Gibney was denied naturalized citizenship in 2010 after failing to disclose on his application that he had been indicted in Ireland in 1993 on 27 counts of unlawful carnal knowledge of minors. But this material lie on his citizenship application was not enough to cause his removal from the country, Immigration and Customs Enforcement said in a letter to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, because Gibney was never “convicted of a crime.”) The current probe has been reported by Concussion Inc. as being under the purview of Jane Khodarkovsky, human trafficking finance specialist at the Department of Justice’s Money Laundering and Asset Recovery Section (MLARS). The MLARS investigation, in turn, is related to the work of a grand jury, under the direction of the U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York, which is determining whether there are grounds for criminal charges against USA Swimming and its leadership for decades of insurance fraud, asset hiding, and abuse cover-ups. The grand jury was reported last fall by the Wall Street Journal and other American newspapers. But they have not joined this reporter in noting a connection to Gibney. To the American audience, he remains “George who?” Dr. Gary O’Toole, the leading Irish swimmer of the period who took it upon himself to blow the whistle on Gibney starting in 1991, is the focus of the new Irish Times and Swimming World articles. I was honored to spend time with O’Toole during my visit to Dublin last summer. I take no exception, on its own terms, to the victory lap given O’Toole by Times sports columnist Johnny Watterson. I also salute Watterson, along with another Irish journalist, Justine McCarthy (now with London’s Sunday Times), for providing the seminal public oxygen for the scandals of Gibney and the country’s other national swim program bad actors (several of whom landed in prison — though Gibney himself did not). All I’m pointing out is that a rehash of O’Toole’s brave efforts to take down Gibney a quarter of a century ago is not the story in 2020. Not while the evil coach remains on the loose, and as American authorities close in on decisions about what to do next in response to a two-continent campaign to bring him to justice. One output for the feds could be prosecution of Gibney for his one known instance of youth sex crime in America: his 1991 rape and impregnation of a 17-year-old swimmer from his Irish team of the time, the Trojans, out of Newpark Comprehensive School in Blackrock, County Dublin, during a training trip in Tampa, Florida. Another output could be Gibney’s extradition back to Ireland to revisit or expand on his original 27-count indictment; that indictment got dropped in 1994, thanks to a controversial and nepotistic procedural ruling by the Irish Supreme Court. Extradition would involve coordination with Ireland’s director of public prosecutions (DPP). In 2015 the DPP began its latest of several reviews of Gibney matters over the years. This one was at the behest of now-retired Irish legislator Maureen O’Sullivan. In 2017, on the heels of my appellate settlement with the government of the FOIA case in the U.S., Ireland’s then deputy prime minister and foreign minister, Simon Coveney, told O’Sullivan on the floor of the Dáil Éireann that the government would move responsibly on new information. When it comes to the Irish news media today, they are just worn out and weak — and hence behind the curve on Gibney. Swimming World and Craig Lord, by contrast, are corrupt. Earlier in July, Swimming World had published another article under the headline “Mark Schubert and John Leonard Issue Denials Over Robert Allard Abuse-Related Accusations.” See https://www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/news/mark-schubert-and-john-leonard-issue-denials-over-allard-abuse-related-accusations/. Oddly, the piece had no byline. But Lord’s linguistic fingerprints are evident in British-English usage: for example, the sentence stating that Schubert “is minded” to file a defamation lawsuit against Allard. Bob Allard is the leading American lawyer representing plaintiffs in lawsuits alleging abuse by USA Swimming coaches, as well as negligence or cover-up by the organization itself. In March, Allard and his client Ariana Kukors settled out of court her sensational and 100 percent truthful claim that she had been groomed and abused for years, starting when she was underage, by her youth coach, Sean Hutchison. Allard’s California law firm, Corsiglia McMahon & Allard, recently published “An Open Letter to USA Swimming and its CEO Tim Hinchey.” See https://childmolestationattorneys.com/open-letter-tim-hinchey/. Allard demanded therein that Hinchey “fix the root cause of the sexual abuse epidemic which continues to afflict the sport of swimming. Having been deeply involved in the handling of sex abuse claims against USA Swimming for more than a decade, it is clear to us that there remains a deeply embedded culture within your organization which condones the criminal sexual behavior of coaches towards its underage athletes.” As it happens, Allard’s laundry list of allegations against Leonard involves things other than ASCA’s suspected support of Gibney. But the Irish coach does get name-checked in reference to Schubert, the national coach from 2006 until his firing in 2010. “When Schubert was in a position to effect positive change within USA Swimming,” the open letter states, “he remained silent and took no action against the following coaches known by him to be predators: George Gibney, Scott MacFarland, Daniel Adam Dusenbury, Will Colebank, Murray Stephens, Richard Quick, Paul Bergen, Andy King and Mitch Ivey.” In the Swimming World story, Schubert “denied even knowing Irish coach George Gibney, accused of abuse by various swimmers back home, and didn’t think he had even ever met him.” But the pertinent question isn’t whether Schubert ever met Gibney. Schubert settled a wrongful termination suit by his former assistant, Dia Rianda. She was dismissed for demanding action against a coach Schubert was protecting, Bill Jewell, who later would be suspended by USA Swimming for predatory behavior. Rianda has told me and many others that in hours of Schubert’s confiding in her, following his bitter resignation as national team director, he talked at length about the way the swimming establishment circled the wagons around Gibney. This was subsequent to a 2010 flare-up of Gibney publicity in Florida, but years before I began reporting on Gibney in 2015. With John Leonard, the unsigned author of Swimming World‘s July 3 story exploited the familiar rhetorical card trick of the ASCA boss and his apologists when it comes to addressing known incidents involving famous coaches, and the failure to prosecute or administratively discipline them. That trick is to make the failure itself the circular and definitive answer to the allegations — when the point of those exposing abuse is that the allegations were truthful and should have resulted in prosecution or bans. Leaning into the criminal standard of “beyond a reasonable doubt” frustrates critics who seek to change abuse culture. And it is the wrong standard for certifying authority figures in youth-serving activities. Unless, that is, you buy into the mentality that swimming coaches have no responsibility for dealings with children, in any way, shape, or form. Murray Stephens, founder of the North Baltimore Aquatic Club — later the home of Michael Phelps — was secretly pushed off pool decks following 2012 reports of his abuses. But in Leonard-speak, as ventriloquized by Lord, the takeaway is: “I am not aware of anything banning Murray anywhere. He is not on the banned list. I am not, nor have I ever been, aware of any accusations of Murray in this regard.” THE GEORGE GIBNEY CHRONICLES: What the Hunt For the Most Notorious At-Large Sex Criminal in the History of Global Sports Has Told Us About the Sports Establishments and Governments on Two Continents — order the ebook at Amazon Kindle, https://www.amazon.com/George-Gibney-Chronicles-Establishments-Governments-ebook/dp/B07NZ6S3PJ, or get an emailed PDF copy by remitting US $3.49 via PayPal to [email protected].

Last week, a troupe of young, inquisitive scientists walked across the street to campus from Jefferson Middle School. These young students were on hand for an after-school camp, Cyclones Science Investigations, hosted by Columbia College. For five days, about 20 students participated in hands-on activities with Columbia College science, nursing, forensic science and mathematics faculty. Tracy Worthington, a social studies teacher at Jefferson Middle School, had the idea for the camp. Worthington, who said the middle school has identified a need to improve science literacy among its students, approached Teresa VanDover about developing an after-school program with Columbia College science faculty. VanDover, an associate professor of education at Columbia College and chair of the college’s Partners in Education committee, was excited about the camp. “I am enthusiastic about this work because it provides hands-on, authentic learning for our Middle School Students, and increases the opportunities for Columbia College to engage with the broader educational community,” said VanDover. Each day of the week brought new activities to introduce the middle schoolers to various fields of science jobs in those fields. Monday and Tuesday, Criminal Justice instructor Mark Himmel showed students the technologies used to detect fingerprints, calculate bullet trajectories, identify footprints and spot clues not visible to the naked eye. Wednesday brought an exercise in applied physics and math with”bungie-jumping Barbies,” as Professor of Mathematics, Dr. Ann Schlemper, taught students to measure the distance a Barbie doll falls when connected to a chain of rubber bands. The students used their measurements to create scatter plots and linear regressions. Columbia College students even got in on the action, as Dr. Curtis Mason, assistant professor of Education, brought some of his students to assist with the activity and practice their teaching skills. Dr. Joyce Gentry, associate professor of Nursing, took the lead on Thursday by showing the students how to check each other’s blood pressure, reflexes and pupillary responses. They also had the opportunity to interact with Simon the SimMan, the nursing lab’s interactive patient simulator. To wrap up the week, Dr. Chris Babayco, assistant professor of chemistry, wowed students by demonstrating how different elements emit different colors when burned. They also made “elephant’s toothpaste,” a catalyzed reaction of household ingredients that creates a fast-expanding foam. To participate in the camp, interested middle schoolers had to write an essay about why they wanted to attend, as well as acquire a teacher recommendation. Worthington believes the camp showed great success in its pilot year. “Students [who hadn’t applied to the program] keep coming to me wanting to get in,” Worthington said during the week. And of those who did attend, “They’ve been really engaged and asked a lot of good questions about science in the real world.” To read more about the week of activities, check out the April 2 Missourian Article: Columbia College teachers hold a science camp for Jefferson Middle School students

SOLAR ENERGY THAT IS SMART, MOBILE AND HIGHLY FLEXIBLE In recent years, Power-Blox as a social entrepreneur has successfully implemented electrification projects in Vanuatu, Laos, Mozambique, Ethiopia, Uganda, and in more than 20 other countries in Sub Sahara Africa, South es Asia, and the Pacific region. Power-Blox has partnered successfully with companies from the private sector as well as with NGOs, the German GIZ, and UN organizations to develop a holistic ecosystem of solutions that “ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all”. “Together with our partners we have developed and tested several business models from kilowatt-based tariffs to lease-to-own models,” says Alessandro Medici, CTO, and founder of Power-Blox. To run those models in extremely remote spots, further products and services have followed, like a smart electricity metering solution, a cloud-based energy sales platform, and gateways that enable remote monitoring, over-the-air updates as well as predictive maintenance solutions based on the data provided. “Our holistic solution combined with connectivity allows us to serve even the most remote places across the globe with reliable and resilient renewable electricity.” says Alessandro Medici and adds: “Especially during the COVID-Lockdowns when going on site was impossible, our connectivity solutions were essential to operate and maintain our systems. Power-Blox was facing three major challenges: - How to provide globally available energy management on thousands of single and clustered Power-Blox units while having to negotiate with hundreds of Mobile Network Operators and dozens of price plans? - How to provide a globally stable and 24/7/365 available energy management, monitoring, and trading platform? - Security? Data coming from and going to a Power-Blox have to be handled confidentially. Power-Blox wants to ensure its client's best possible privacy. Each PBX cluster consists of one to nine PBX devices, controlled by an embedded Linux gateway, responsible for the device and cloud communication. All actors and sensors within a PBX exchange their data with the gateway via a PBX internal Bluetooth transceiver. The gateway connects to a locally available WiFi network and in case of WiFi unavailability automatically switches to the globally accessible mobile network provided by ConnectedYou. ConnectedYou acts as a single point of contact for the best global and local mobile network operators. Its unique IoT service platform consolidates the best services and solutions of these MNO partners. “ConnectedYou offers the best possible prices paired with an excellent and reliable service, seamless connectivity around the globe, today and in the future with the possibility to change Mobile-Network-Providers anytime, flexibly over the air (OTA)” said Markus Parzefall, Head of R&D at Power-Blox WHAT KIND OF DATA IS TRANSMITTED Two kinds of data are transmitted: - In the beginning, the data volume will concentrate on small data in order to control and monitor the PBX devices in a bi-directional way. - “In the future, we can imagine providing even Internet access over the same gateway infrastructure,” said Markus Parzefall. FIRST DEPLOYMENTS - - Power supply for telephone communication to 200 – 300 Mountain huts for Swisscom in Switzerland - Village electrification projects in Vanuatu, Laos, Mozambique, Mali, Uganda, Rwanda, and Tanzania - Electrification of 42 remote health centers in Mozambique - Special equipment for disaster relief agencies such as the DEZA, Médecins sans frontières (doctors without borders), and the red cross - Electrification projects in refugee settlements for UNDP / UNHCR and the International Lifeline Fund, with a focus on the productive use of energy applications - Various projects within the UN’s 17 sustainable development goals WHY CONNECTEDYOU WAS CHOSEN - One single partner for all global data communication (M2M) - Cost-efficient scale-up to larger data volumes - Real-time SIM card management - Secure communication with devices - Efficient data visualization In order to fulfill the project goals in a short time and professional way, it is very important for Power-Blox to have a partner like ConnectedYou, who provides flexible and secure connectivity and data management on a global scale. Thanks to ConnectedYou, Power-Blox is able to create a great business package for their partners and clients on a global scale, and react fast and professionally to their communication in a rapidly growing IoT B2B market. Especially the advanced real-time SIM card management tools by ConnectedYou make it very practical for Power-Blox to manage devices and their data consumption in real time around the globe. In the future, Power-Blox plans to embed the SIM modules into their PBX-Gateways. This will greatly reduce the SIM logistic because there will be no physical SIM handling. All SIM services will be managed over the air, directly and 100% flexible. Power-Blox is an award-winning Swiss company that develops, produces, and distributes intelligent swarm electrification solutions. It has developed a ground-breaking, potentially disruptive technology, which supported by an algorithm, allows the setup of a swarm grid with a decentralized architecture and no centralized control (i.e. master/slave principle). This enables automated and decentralized power regulation and storage within the grid. We call it “the internet of energy” as it follows the principles of the Arpanet. The system is self-learning and self-regulating; it regulates power production, consumption, and distribution in the grid intelligently and autonomously. Moreover, it allows to easily combine different energy sources and battery systems, without the need for configuration. Power-Blox has already won several awards (Intersolar Smarter E Award 2019, Axpo Energy Award 2014, UN National Energy Globe Award of Tanzania 2015). The nearly endless scalability of the Power-Blox system represents a breakthrough in energy technology. It allows scalable growth based on increasing energy demands, without the need of modifying/replacing existing installations. Power-Blox was founded in July 2015 by Alessandro Medici and Armand Martin. It is a privately held company headquartered in Frick, Switzerland.

Žalgiris Arena Water Sports Centre Kaunas City Municipality and Conres have signed a contract for the construction of a water sports centre worth €25.8 million. In the area next to Žalgiris Arena a building featuring exceptional architecture will emerge that will house not only an Olympic-size pool with 500 grandstands seats but also a spa area and a gym. Kaunas City Municipality 18.4 thousand m² 09/2020 - 05/2022 The experience of the contractor is unsurpassed Five companies competed for the opportunity to build this extraordinary object on Nemunas River Island. The general contractor and construction company Conresta, which has extensive experience in implementing ambitious projects, won the competition. Among the most prominent projects implemented by the company are the automated Continental plant, the modern logistics centre for Lietuvos Paštas, the restoration of the historic Pacai Palace and the five-star Pacai Hotel, as well as the Palanga City Swimming Pool with a Wellness Centre and Palanga Concert Hall. “The opportunity to build a swimming pool featuring exceptional architecture represents a positive evaluation of our experience. The preparation for work has been intense. However, with our many years of experience and the competencies of our employees, we will ensure the smooth implementation of the project. Of course, we are certain to uncover some interesting challenges but we are ready for them,” said Lukas Laukaitis, Director of Conresta. The construction of the new water sports and entertainment centre is planned to start in a few months, after the preparation of a detailed work project is completed. Under the contract, the new complex will be built within just 18 months. The total area of the A+ Energy Class single-storey building with a mezzanine will reach 18.4 thousand sq. metres. It will enhance the relief of Nemunas River Island The multifunctional water sports centre will be located next to Žalgiris Arena, on the western side. A passage will connect these spaces, extending from the main entrance to the arena. The new building will have a 50 m 10-lane pool with a 500-seat grandstand for spectators. It will be equipped to host international competitions and national championships. The second, smaller pool will serve as a site for children’s swimming lessons. The swimming pool and the related infrastructure will meet the requirements of the International Swimming Federation (FINA). There will also be a spa area for 300 people with three different temperature-controlled sauna complexes, entertainment pools for children and adults, massage tubs, relaxation rooms and a café. In addition, the water sports centre will have a gym for 200 people. - Concreting in winter - Short construction periods - Construction on an island - Possibility of groundwater - Green roofs - Concrete finishing - Composite metal beams that will support the roof structure over a large pool - Monolithic reinforced concrete columns and walls - Glass facade constructions - Pole foundations - 50-metre long 10-lane pool - 500 seats for spectators in the grandstands - Žalgiris Arena reconstruction work - A building that merges with the natural terrain of an island - Orientation to the south - Creating the sensation of an “open building” - Spa area Economical and functional purposes According to an exclusive idea proposed by architects from E. Miliūnas’ studio, the new building will be integrated into the natural relief of the island. According to the architect Aurimas Ramanauskas, who designed the pool, the unique location has led to some unique architectural solutions. The building uses the existing relief of the island, which merges with the building and becomes its fifth façade consisting of a green roof. “The design of the centre has included modern water treatment technologies, with maximum automation for the all the engineered parts of the building and economical solutions,” the project designer A. Ramanauskas noted. Another feature that makes the whole complex unique is the fact that, during the warm season, the pool expands into a recreational outdoor area with ornamental plants, recreation areas and sports fields.

Combilift has announced the launch of the new Aisle Master-OP (AME-OP), a stand-on electric powered model that combines the advantages of a narrow aisle articulated forklift and an order picker for versatile operation in warehousing applications. The company, which made the official launch in a virtual press conference this month, said the development of the model was influenced by customer feedback, as well as the recent growth of e-commerce. Combilift CEO Martin McVicar said: “Customers already using the Aisle Master for space saving, storage and efficiency in their warehouse asked if we could redevelop the Aisle Master to meet their ever-growing demand for order picking customised orders.” Combilift said the Aisle Master-OP was created based on research and development carried out in 2019 and 2020. The main feature of the unit is the step-through operator compartment which has design copyright protection (European Design Registration No. 002676809-0001) across multiple markets worldwide. Describing the new model, Combilift’s statement added: “The low floor height of just 280mm enables convenient, single step access from both sides of the truck which speeds up order picking compared to the operator having to get on and off from a seated position. The AME-OP truck has all the key advantages of the conventional Aisle Master – indoor/outdoor, for loading/offloading and for stock replenishment at other times during shifts when order picking is complete.” The Aisle Master-OP is available in a number of variants, with lift capacities from 1,500kg to 2,500kg, lift heights up to 12.1m and can operate in aisles as narrow as 1650mm. It features a patented chain steering system, which allows the truck to articulate more than 205°, with an inline drive motor and front drive axle assembly, all of which enable narrower aisle operation. The multifunctional programmable joystick control lever in the operator compartment, which includes controls for the hydraulics and traction, is adjustable to enable comfortable and ergonomic working conditions for operators of all sizes. The Operator Presence Detection floor pad engages the parking brake automatically when the operator steps off the truck to carry out order picking. McVicar added: “Before we officially launch any new model, Combilift carry out extensive field testing on customer’s sites. This was the case with the Aisle Master-OP.” Combilift said the AME-OP is now a production model within its portfolio, with units currently in build for customers in the USA and New Zealand – one of which is Sorted Logistics based in Christchurch New Zealand, a third-party logistics provider and freight forwarder who will be receiving eight AME-OP units shortly. “This is a major innovation in the warehousing sector and the versatility to use the one Aisle Master for multiple applications – narrow aisle operation, truck to rack handling, bulk picking and item order picking – will result in strong demand for this new product in our home and export markets around the world,” McVicar said.

Samsung C27F398 Review - Quick Verdict The Samsung C27F398 is a 27″ curved monitor that is perfect for those who are looking for an immersive viewing experience. The colors are vibrant and the display is perfect for media consumption and gaming. Though a little tweaking is needed, image quality is neat. If you’re going for curved monitors that has the perfect balance of price and features, this Samsung display could be the one for you. Curved monitors are pretty cool and bring some sophistication to your room. In this Samsung C27F398 review, we are going to analyze one such curved monitor that comes with an affordable price tag. With its full HD resolution, it is not the pixel beast, but it sure brings in a good number of features to make an enticing final product. If you’re looking for a curved screen at a price point that’s inexpensive, then this monitor should have your interest. Let’s find out if this display is worth the price. Even though the Samsung C27F398 is a budget monitor, Samsung has made it a point to not cheap out when it comes to the design of this display. In fact, the monitor carries the same design language you can see in the higher-end models. It comes with a glossy black front and a matte black back which gives it a premium look. You can find bezels surrounding the panel, but they’re not that big. Since the entire setup is black, you wouldn’t notice the bezels that much. But this is a cheap monitor, and that shows in the build quality. There is a lot of plastic in the monitor that makes it look and feel a bit cheap. Some might even think of this monitor as fragile. It does stand firm when placed on the table, but all it takes to disturb that serenity is a little push. Then you take a trip to wobble town. The glossy finish you find in the Samsung C27F398 is a smudge magnet. Make a slight adjustment with your hand, and you can see fingerprints all over that glossy surface. The Y-shaped stand takes a lot of space on your desk. Most of the monitors come with height adjustment, but you’ll not find it here. The only thing you can do here is tilting which, sadly, doesn’t give you all the flexibility you need. The VESA mount compatibility is another good thing about the Samsung C27F398. If you can follow instruction, then you can mount this thing on your wall with ease. The Samsung C27F398 curved monitor gives you some connectivity options. The monitor comes with an HDMI and a display port which are much better than having a VGA port or a DVI port. Having these ports enable you to connect this monitor with the latest desktops and laptops with ease. Just take the cord and plug, no need to meddle with screws and such. There is also a headphone jack at the back. You can connect one, but the positioning is not that great. Once you connect your headphone, you might want to leave it there to avoid reaching the back of your monitor every single time. Samsung C27F398 Specs Before we talk about the performance, let’s take a look at what the Samsung C27F398 offer on paper. The monitor is a 27″ display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels which puts it in the full HD category. The panel here is a VA one and not IPS. The display comes with a refresh rate of 60Hz, and a response time of 4ms which is pretty decent. With a contrast ratio of 3000:1, the Samsung C27F398 can go up to a maximum of 250cd/m^2. The monitor has a curve radius of 1800r which is a bit more aggressive than other models on the market, but it doesn’t go as far to distort the images on the screen. If you want this display just for the curvature, then this should be a problem. Having this curved screen does make things a lot better and closer for a more immersive experience. How Does the Display Fare Out of the Box? Out of the box, the display does a decent job, but there is scope for a lot of improvements. For one, the screen produces only 97% of the sRGB color gamut with an accuracy of Delta 3.5. This is not that high quality, but it can be improved by tweaking the settings a bit. After tweaking, you get massive improvements which make this display much better. Gamma is also not right when you first use the display. After careful calibration, you can increase the gamma to the proper levels. This process also reduces the yellowish tint on the screen and makes it more white. Though this is personal preference, you are better off with a screen that is less warm. Samsung C27F398 Performance The monitor’s performance is impressive for the price. The monitor can put out a contrast ratio of 3000:1 at maximum brightness. With this contrast ratio, you get deep blacks and bright whites. You can also see improvements in grayscale performance as well. When you display a full black picture on the screen, it does look a bit brighter on the center. While this can be a minor issue for some, it won’t affect the screen’s performance during gaming or media consumption. Being a VA panel, you’d expect a viewing angle that is better than that of a TN panel. We can say that the viewing angle is definitely better, but you’d expect more in this case. The panel uniformity is a concern here as there is a notable deviation from the center to the sides. While this is not as bad as to break the whole viewing experience for you, it can be a pet peeve for some. The Samsung C27F398 has a response time of 4ms which is not that great. The monitor does come with a 3-stage response time setting which can help reduce any ghosting or smudging. If you’re a fan of action games, then use this feature to improve the quality of your visual output. The monitor comes with FreeSync compatibility. This is similar to Nvidia’s G-Sync but for AMD graphics cards. The monitor can match the GPU’s frame rate and offer a much better gaming experience that is void of ghosting and other problems. Samsung C27F398 Review – Bottomline The Samsung C27F398 27″ curved monitor is what it is. It is an affordable curved monitor that offers a good viewing experience without the bells and whistles. While it doesn’t get too bright, it does have excellent contrast ratio to back it up. The image quality, with a bit of tweaking, can be excellent which is ideal for gaming and other graphics work. If you’re okay with the 1080p resolution and the 60Hz refresh rate, then you won’t have a bad time with this curved monitor from Samsung.

For communities, water related services are also often the biggest energy consumers – underlining the significance of water-energy nexus. It is therefore easy to view waste as a problem to be mitigated, something to be reduced to a tolerable level, and kept out of sight. Another mind-set is possible. Organic waste contains significant quantities of energy embedded in it. The facts that these streams of organic matter are distributed across our communities, trickle down in small streams and have low energy density, have made it difficult to capture that energy anywhere else but in locations with large populations and high population densities. A European project DEMOSOFC showcases a replicable concept by which power generation can be integrated into water services at superb efficiency in small and medium sized facilities, too, making good use of modular nature of fuel cells and fuel flexibility of SOFC technology. The video below presents the concept by an example from Collegno waste water treatment facility of SMAT in Turin region, Italy. Convion Oy, a leading developer of solid oxide fuel cell based products for distributed power generation, is pleased to announce its intention to raise up to 4 million euros with existing and new investors. Convion will raise new capital through offering equity shares via a round facilitated by Springvest Oy.

What is the formal definition of "savory" when used in cooking? I hear a lot about things coming in either sweet or savory forms — e.g. crepes — but in context it doesn't seem that savory is the term for all things that are not sweet. Does it have to do with preparation methods? Ingredients? Taste of the final product? I have been assuming that "sweet" means something like "sugary," as it does in common usage; please correct me if that's not the case here.

Noah Munck hairstyle. Photo via nick. The Noah Munck faux-hawk hair can also be worn as a short and casual hairdo. The young actor is best known for his role as Gibby in iCarly and as a young entrepreneur in charge of lawn care in TruGreen commercials. The hairdo design benefits him in two ways. First, it is a young look without being complicated or messy. In addition, this style helps to offset his very round facial shape. As with many short styles, this becoming hairdo requires frequent and regular trims. In order to maintain the peak, styling gel will be necessary. Holding product also helps to make the locks shiny. The daily styling time is very short, only about ten minutes once a routine is established. The actor’s strands are cut short on the sides and back, using a clipper. The edge is neat and blends smoothly into the somewhat longer top hairs. The cut for the crown of his head is layered so that it can be styled into the faux-mohawk design. The cut can also be designed into a more casual style, simply depending upon the way the top strands are arranged. The style is more appropriate to a younger man. The ability of the design to make a round face look longer and thinner has already bee mentioned. Oval, triangular and heart-shaped face shapes can also take advantage of this style. It is appropriate for medium or fine hair texture. The Noah Munck faux-mohawk hair look is a good choice for men of this age and facial shape. Since the daily styling work requires only a few minutes, the look is easy to maintain. Styling gel is used to smooth the sides and back of the head, while the top hair is lifted up and drawn into the distinctive spine of the Mohawk.

Here are 5 tips for making your business remarkable and getting people talking. I’ll back-up the theory with some practical applications of these ideas for businesses that you don’t typically think of as ‘remarkable’. 1. Do The Unexpected – Surprise, Don’t Shock Don’t allow your business to be an ‘also-ran’ and fade into the background. Find a way to deliver something above and beyond what people expect. It doesn’t have to be extravagant or strange, just surprising. Your customers should say ‘I really didn’t expect them to do that, but I love it!’ Example: Commercial Cleaner Commercial cleaners clean offices and premises late at night when employees have gone home. Their work is rarely witnessed or praised by the office workers who benefit. But what if the cleaner was to do something a little different to leave their mark. What if a cleaner left a foiled wrapped chocolate resting on your keyboard so when you get to work the next day there’s a treat waiting – that’s a nice way to start the day, right? Or each cleaner could be issued with a sticker with their name, photo & message on it – ‘Have an excellent day!’ They could leave a sticker on every desk they clean which reminds the office workers that someone is there at night, working hard for them, and that person has a name. It humanizes an otherwise faceless business. 2. ‘Going The Extra Mile’ = Business As Usual Treat customers with a level of service that they just don’t expect, and act like it’s normal for you to do this. ‘That’s just the kind of business we are!’ When a customer calls you out to their home to do a job, don’t go empty handed. Take them a muffin or cupcakes as a treat. You should act as if you’re a guest in their house; guests are courteous and they bring gifts. It only costs you $0.50 a time to do this and you can bet they’ll remember the next time their faucet breaks they should call the guys with the cakes! 3. Be Bold Not Boring Everything you do is a marketing opportunity and you need to make the most of it. Look at the assets you have from your store front to your branded plastic bags. Do they make people stop and look? Do your customers say ‘hey, great bag, that’s really cool!’ If they don’t, then you’re not doing enough to make your business memorable. Example: Dry Cleaners All dry cleaners use the same sort of polythene bags to protect customers’ clothes, and every customer carries this bag down the street in full public view. Yet every bag from every dry cleaner looks identical – transparent with a logo stuck on it. What a great opportunity to stand out and get noticed. Why not switch colors and go for a glaring bright pink bag, or be bold and get some daring designs printed with people in their underwear (funny & relevant). 4. Work Doesn’t Have To Be Just About Work You want to make your place of work more than just where you work. It should be a social place that people like to come to and has real character. Customers respond to the genuine, personal approach so get out from behind the counter and show them your fun side. You want to build up a relationship with your customers so they both trust you and like you. Why not use your empty store at night for a wine tasting event. Invite your customers in for an evening of fine wines and run it in conjunction with a local wine merchant – they provide the wine and advice, you offer a free & fun evening for your customers. And again, be playful with it – call it ‘Glasses half empty’. 5. Reward Loyalty With REAL Rewards Rewarding loyalty is an obvious thing to do, but don’t do the typical thing of offering customers more of the same. You want to extend your relationship beyond your store so that customers really remember you and appreciate you. Example: Dry Cleaner Create a loyalty scheme which rewards customers for every 10th visit they make to your business. But don’t offer them 1 free clean – that’s so predictable! Again, team up with a friendly local business, maybe a restaurant or a salon and offer a free lunch or beauty treatment (good lead generation for that business). Then when that customer is enjoying their free lunch or getting pampered they’ll think of you. Create Positive Experiences NOT Adverts The more positive experiences you can create for your customers the greater the impact of Social PR on your business. These experiences become stories and these stories get shared which drives new customers to your door, and keeps existing customers coming back. All this and you didn’t have to spend a cent on advertising.

Every business wishes they had a decision tree driven customer experience handbook to streamline customer service processes. We’ve compiled the five steps that would be included in any decision tree driven customer experience handbook and is the crux of creative customer support. Yonyx enables organizations to create decision tree driven interactive guides for troubleshooting or how-to related customer self service. 1. Determine common problems of the customer experience. Before you begin any decision tree, you must outline the likely issues that arise to cause the customer to troubleshoot in the first place. 2. Establish logical relationships to create branches of possible solutions. Provide possible solutions to every step of the troubleshooting process that flows in a logical order until the particular issue is resolved. 3. Clarify points and processes with multimedia. Customers do not always understand written text filled with technical jargon. To make the troubleshooting process much easier, the decision tree driven customer experience handbook advises highlighting specific points and steps with supplementary multimedia. 4. Link to supplementary information where helpful. Not all of the information in your decision tree has to come from your company. Do some research on the internet to find resources that may be of help to your customers and provide outbound links where appropriate. 5. Add the option to connect to a helpdesk. The key focus of the decision tree driven customer experience handbook is delivering quality customer support. In order to improve resolution rates, provide the option for customers to connect with a helpdesk representative.

UAE Corporate Tax For Businesses with Extensive Property Assets Jun 09, 2023 / UAE Corporate Tax The government of the United Arab Emirates recently announced the establishment of a maximum net interest rate ceiling for corporation tax, demonstrating the country’s dedication to fostering a favorable business climate. This critical move intends to provide firms functioning in the booming economy of the UAE with more clarity and stability. This essay examines the specifics of this new rule, its effects on businesses, and any possible advantages it may have for the UAE business environment. The Maximum Net Interest Rate Cap For Corporate Tax The UAE government’s introduction of a maximum net interest rate cap for corporate tax is essential to increase transparency and promote economic development. This law limits the interest costs that UAE-based companies may deduct from their taxable revenue. This measure’s primary goal is to limit excessive interest deductions and ensure all businesses are subject to a fair and equal tax system. Benefits for Businesses 1. Improving Tax Planning A maximum net interest rate cap for corporate tax limit gives firms the ability to manage their taxes in a more organized way. Businesses may strategically use their resources, streamline their financial procedures, and make wise investment choices by establishing explicit limits on interest deductions. This rule promotes proactive tax preparation, giving firms more assurance and efficiency when negotiating the tax environment. 2. Promoting Equity Financing Equity funding is essential for fostering long-term company success. By encouraging a transition toward equity-based financing structures, the maximum net interest rate cap for corporate tax limit encourages businesses to look for alternate sources of finance. This change not only improves the financial stability of enterprises but also lessens their reliance on debt financing, possibly decreasing total financial risks and boosting resistance to market swings. 3. Fair Tax Procedures Adopting a maximum net interest rate cap for corporate tax encourages equitable taxation policies across the UAE. This rule assures that all firms, regardless of size or industry, are subject to a fair tax system by prohibiting excessive interest deductions. That creates an appropriate playing field, promotes healthy competition, and cultivates an ethical and open corporate climate. Resulting Effects on the Business Landscape Establishing the maximum net interest rate cap for corporate tax is anticipated to affect the business environment in the United Arab Emirates. Here are some essential things to think about: 1. Transparency and compliance with regulations The new law strongly emphasizes the value of regulatory compliance and openness in corporate practices. Corporations must carefully examine their financial arrangements and comply with the established interest rate limit. By following these rules, companies may show dedication to regulatory compliance, increasing stakeholder confidence and credibility. 2. Enhancing Investor Confidence Investors are likely to see the maximum net interest rate cap’s adoption as a move in the right direction toward fostering a more secure and open business climate. The UAE has become an even more attractive location for foreign direct investment (FDI) with more transparency and less ambiguity. This action may encourage long-term economic development and draw in a larger spectrum of investors. 3. Economic Sustainability and Diversification The UAE has been aggressively pursuing economic diversification policies to lessen its dependence on oil earnings. This more extensive perspective is supported by the implementation of the maximum net interest rate cap for corporate tax limit, which encourages companies to look into other financing options and diversify their sources of income. As a result, the UAE economy is better prepared to withstand shocks and adjust to shifting market dynamics over the long run. The UAE government has shown its dedication to maintaining a beneficial business climate by enacting a maximum net interest rate cap for corporation tax. For companies, this rule offers several benefits, such as improved tax planning, support of equity financing, and promotion of fair taxing procedures. Additionally, it has broad ramifications for the business environment in the UAE, encouraging compliance with regulations, boosting investor confidence, and supporting economic diversification and sustainability. To maintain compliance and maximize their financial strategy, companies must speak with tax experts and consultants as they adjust to this new regulatory environment. By accepting these changes, businesses may position themselves strategically, contribute to the UAE’s economy’s expansion, and prosper in a setting that emphasizes openness, justice, and long-term success.

The October 2009 Interior Appropriations bill (P.L. 111-88) requires the EPA, in consultation with other Federal agencies, to prepare a comprehensive report to Congress on the climate effects of black carbon. Black carbon, or soot, results from incomplete combustion of organic matter such as fossil fuels and biomass. The report to Congress will evaluate and synthesize available information on sources of black carbon, impacts of black carbon on global and regional climate, and the potential utility and cost-effectiveness of mitigation options for reducing climate and public health impacts of black carbon. EPA's Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS) has requested that the Council review the draft Report to Congress on Black Carbon to evaluate the report's scientific rigor and technical accuracy.

I recently encountered a situation where I needed to render a multi select in a grid. We have a license for Kendo so I figured it was a great opportunity to use their MVC Kendo Grid. What I didn’t know was this type of binding is not included out of the box and must be custom built. I was very surprised by this so I wanted to share my solution and hopefully save other developers the time. Figure 1 shows the multi select inside of a grid that we will be building in this post. Figure 1: Kendo Multi Select in a MVC Kendo Grid Setting up the Kendo Grid First, I want to start off with the models (Figure 2). Each MultiSelectGridModel represents a person, or row in the grid. Each person can have many skills, which is the field that will be represented in the multi select. Skills are represented as a List because the user can select multiple options from the multi select control. Figure 2: Models Figure 3: Kendo Instantiation in the CSHTML File (Razor Syntax) Figure 5: Edited Kendo Grid Second, we have the Editor Template (Figure 6). This template is just a view that contains the Kendo Multi Select control with the definition of what to bind to. In this case we will be binding to a variable in the ViewData called SkillsList. Figure 6: Skills Editor Template Now that we have the view and model set up, we need to write the controller method to handle the get request (Figure 7). First, we will build a List that will contain the options present in the multi select. Next we will add the variable to the ViewData so the editor template will be able to access it during runtime. Lastly, we will construct the model and return it with the view. Figure 7: MVC Controller Get Action I’m surprised Kendo UI didn’t come with built-in bindings for these different column types, but they did build out a very flexible platform to create any column type that is desired. The flexibility is proving useful for us as our client has already asked for enhancements on the grid we delivered to them.

Have you ever wondered about the mysteries of life and what happens to us after we die? The concept of reincarnation has fascinated humanity for centuries, offering a glimpse into the possibility of multiple lives and the continuation of the soul’s journey. In this article, I’ll delve into the intriguing topic of the law of reincarnation, exploring its raw and unfiltered essence. Get ready to embark on a thought-provoking exploration that will challenge your beliefs and expand your understanding of the universe. The law of reincarnation is a fundamental principle that suggests that our souls are eternal and undergo a cycle of rebirth into different physical bodies. It proposes that we are not limited to a single lifetime, but rather, we have the opportunity to learn, grow, and evolve through multiple incarnations. This concept is rooted in various spiritual and religious traditions, spanning across cultures and civilizations. Join me as we peel back the layers of this ancient wisdom and uncover the raw truth behind the law of reincarnation. In our quest for knowledge and enlightenment, the law of reincarnation offers a profound perspective on the nature of existence. It challenges us to contemplate the purpose and meaning of our lives, and how our actions in one lifetime may shape our experiences in the next. So, let’s dive deep into the mysteries of the law of reincarnation, embracing its raw and unfiltered essence, as we embark on a journey of self-discovery and spiritual exploration. The Mysteries of Life and Death Life and death are two fundamental aspects of our existence that have puzzled humans for centuries. As I delve deeper into the concept of reincarnation, I can’t help but reflect on the profound mysteries surrounding life and death. 1. The Cycle of Birth and Death: The law of reincarnation teaches us that life is not just a single event, but rather a continuous cycle of birth and death. Each life we lead is only a small part of our eternal journey. It raises questions about where we come from, why we are here, and what happens to us after death. 2. Lessons and Growth: Reincarnation challenges us to consider the purpose and meaning of our lives. It suggests that each lifetime is an opportunity for learning, growth, and soul evolution. The experiences we encounter and the choices we make in one lifetime may influence our path in future lives. This idea encourages self-reflection and self-improvement, as we strive to make the most of this precious existence. 3. The Role of Karma: Karma, the law of cause and effect, plays a crucial role in the concept of reincarnation. It proposes that our actions in one life determine the circumstances and experiences we encounter in the next. In other words, our present circumstances are the consequences of our past actions, and our future will be shaped by the choices we make today. This notion urges us to be mindful of our actions and take responsibility for the effects they may have on our future lives. 4. Unlocking the Past: Reincarnation offers us the possibility of exploring and understanding our past lives. Through past life regression therapy or deep meditation, we can access memories and experiences from previous incarnations. This exploration can provide valuable insights into our current behaviors, patterns, and relationships, helping us to heal and grow on a deeper level. 5. Continuity of the Soul: The belief in reincarnation suggests that our souls are eternal and connected to a higher, universal consciousness. It implies that our individual identities are merely temporary manifestations, and we are part of something much greater. This interconnectedness reminds us that we are not alone in our journey and that our experiences are shared by countless others on their own paths of self-discovery. Exploring the Concept of Reincarnation Reincarnation is a fascinating concept that has captured the imagination of people across cultures and religions for centuries. It offers a fresh perspective on the mysteries of life and death, inviting us to question the purpose and meaning of our existence. 1. The Cycle of Birth and Death Reincarnation is based on the belief that life is not a singular event but rather a continuous cycle of birth and death. When we die, our soul is said to separate from the physical body and embark on a spiritual journey, only to be reborn into a new body in a future life. This cycle repeats itself until we reach a state of spiritual enlightenment or liberation. 2. Karma and Reincarnation Central to the concept of reincarnation is the idea of karma, the law of cause and effect. According to this principle, our actions in this life and past lives shape our future experiences. Positive actions lead to positive outcomes, while negative actions result in suffering or challenges in future lives. Reincarnation offers the opportunity for us to learn from our past mistakes and make amends, ultimately guiding us towards spiritual growth. 3. Unlocking Past Lives One fascinating aspect of reincarnation is the possibility of accessing past lives through regression therapy or deep meditation. By delving into our subconscious minds, we can uncover memories or experiences from previous lifetimes. These glimpses into our past can provide valuable insights, helping us understand recurring patterns, relationships, and unresolved issues in our current life. 4. Eternal Souls and Interconnectedness The belief in reincarnation suggests that our souls are eternal and connected to a higher consciousness. It reminds us that we are not isolated individuals, but rather interconnected beings on a journey of self-discovery. Our shared experiences and interactions with others are part of a larger tapestry of spiritual growth, where each soul has its own unique path. Reincarnation is a concept that encourages us to expand our perspective and explore the deeper mysteries of our existence. It reminds us that our journey does not end with death, but continues through the infinite cycle of birth and rebirth. By embracing the concept of reincarnation, we open ourselves to profound self-exploration and the potential for spiritual evolution. Stay tuned for the next section, where I’ll delve into the different theories surrounding reincarnation and their historical significance. The Law of Reincarnation: A Fundamental Principle The concept of reincarnation has been a fundamental principle in various spiritual traditions and belief systems for centuries. It is based on the idea that after death, the soul is reborn into a new body, beginning a new life cycle. As a firm believer in the law of reincarnation, I find this concept fascinating and profound. Reincarnation offers a different perspective on life and death. It suggests that our existence is not limited to a single lifetime but is part of a continuous journey of growth and evolution. Each life presents us with new opportunities for learning, self-discovery, and spiritual development. One of the key aspects of the law of reincarnation is the idea of karma. Karma is the belief that our actions in this life and past lives shape our future experiences. It operates on the principle of cause and effect, suggesting that the choices we make and the energy we put out into the world have a ripple effect on our future lives. Reincarnation provides a deeply empowering belief system. It suggests that we have the ability to break free from the cycle of birth and death through personal growth, self-awareness, and spiritual transformation. It reminds us that each life is an opportunity to learn from past mistakes and make wiser choices, ultimately leading to soul liberation and enlightenment. With the understanding of reincarnation, we can also gain insights into our current life challenges, relationships, and experiences. By tapping into regression therapy or meditation, we can potentially unlock memories of past lives, gaining a deeper understanding of ourselves and our soul’s journey. Reincarnation also highlights the interconnectedness of all living beings. It suggests that our souls are eternal and connected to a higher consciousness. It’s a reminder that we are not alone in our pursuit of self-discovery and growth. Each individual has their own unique journey, but we are all interconnected, sharing collective experiences and lessons. The law of reincarnation is a fundamental principle that offers a profound perspective on life and death. It provides an empowering belief system based on the principles of karma, personal growth, and interconnectedness. By exploring this concept, we can expand our understanding of existence and unlock the hidden mysteries of our soul’s journey. A Cycle of Rebirth: Understanding the Essence of Reincarnation Reincarnation is a captivating concept that offers a unique perspective on the mysteries of life and death. It suggests that our existence is not confined to a single lifetime, but rather, it is part of a continuous cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. This idea is found in various spiritual traditions and belief systems around the world, each with its own interpretations and understandings. At its core, the concept of reincarnation speaks to the notion that our soul or consciousness is eternal and continues to evolve through multiple lifetimes. It suggests that every individual has lived in previous incarnations and will continue to live in future ones. This understanding of the eternal nature of our being opens up a vast realm of possibilities for personal growth and spiritual transformation. One of the fundamental principles underlying reincarnation is the law of karma. Karma refers to the concept that our actions, thoughts, and intentions have consequences that shape our future experiences. In other words, the choices we make in one lifetime can influence the circumstances and lessons we encounter in subsequent lives. This understanding of karma emphasizes personal responsibility and the importance of living with intention and integrity. While the idea of reincarnation may seem abstract or mystical to some, it has practical implications for how we live our lives. Embracing the concept of reincarnation encourages us to view each experience as an opportunity for growth and learning. It reminds us that our current circumstances are not the result of mere chance, but rather the culmination of past choices and actions. This understanding can inspire us to make conscious decisions that align with our highest values and aspirations. Moreover, the concept of reincarnation highlights the interconnectedness of all living beings. If we accept that we have lived multiple lives and will continue to do so, then it follows that every person we encounter is also on their own unique journey of growth and evolution. This awareness can foster compassion, empathy, and a deeper sense of unity with all of humanity. In the quest to understand the deeper mysteries of existence, the concept of reincarnation offers a profound and thought-provoking framework. It invites us to explore the nature of our soul, the power of our choices, and the potential for endless growth and transformation. By embracing the essence of reincarnation, we embark on a journey of self-discovery and awakening, unlocking the hidden wisdom that resides within us. Unveiling the Ancient Wisdom: Reincarnation in Different Cultures and Civilizations One of the most fascinating aspects of the concept of reincarnation is its presence in various cultures and civilizations throughout history. The belief in multiple lifetimes and the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth can be found in ancient wisdom traditions from all corners of the world. In this section, we will explore some of the different perspectives on reincarnation in different cultural and spiritual traditions. - Hinduism: Reincarnation holds a central place in Hindu philosophy. According to Hindu beliefs, a soul is reborn into a new body after death, with the nature of the next life’s experiences determined by the accumulated karma from previous lives. - Buddhism: Buddhism, which originated from Hinduism, embraces the concept of reincarnation, but with a slightly different interpretation. In Buddhism, the cycle of rebirths, known as Samsara, is seen as a cycle of suffering. The goal is to break free from this cycle by attaining enlightenment, ultimately achieving liberation from the cycle of birth and death. - Ancient Egypt: The ancient Egyptians also held a belief in reincarnation. They believed in the concept of a soul’s journey through different realms and the opportunity for spiritual growth through multiple lifetimes. Egyptians would mummify their deceased loved ones to ensure the preservation of the physical body for the soul’s return in the afterlife. - Native American Traditions: Many Native American cultures embrace the belief in reincarnation. They view death as a transition rather than an end, and the soul is believed to continue its journey in different bodies and forms, including animals and plants. - Druidism: Druidic traditions from the Celtic cultures also encompass the notion of reincarnation. They believe in the cyclical nature of life and death, where the soul leaves one body and enters another, carrying with it the wisdom and experiences gained from previous lifetimes. These are just a few examples of how the concept of reincarnation has permeated different cultural and spiritual traditions across the globe. It is a testament to the universality of this ancient wisdom and the human desire to understand the mysteries of life and death.

Contemplating Our Purpose and Actions in the Context of Reincarnation As I explore the concept of reincarnation further, I am intrigued by how it challenges us to contemplate our purpose and actions in this life. The belief in the law of reincarnation suggests that our present existence is not an isolated event, but rather part of a larger cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. Reincarnation teaches us that our actions in this life have consequences that extend beyond our current existence. It proposes the idea of karma, the law of cause and effect, which suggests that our actions in this lifetime will determine our experiences in future lives. This prompts us to reflect on the choices we make, the impact they have on others, and the long-term consequences they may have for ourselves. Understanding that our actions carry forward into future lives encourages us to live with intention and consideration for others. It reminds us that we are not only responsible for our own well-being, but also for the well-being of our fellow beings and the world we inhabit. This realization empowers us to take an active role in creating a better future for ourselves and future generations. Contemplating reincarnation also leads us to question the purpose of our existence. If we believe in the concept of multiple lives, we must consider why we continue to come back and what lessons we are meant to learn. This line of inquiry invites personal reflection and self-discovery. It encourages us to seek a deeper understanding of ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. In the context of reincarnation, it becomes crucial to live a life aligned with our inner values and higher purpose. When we contemplate the larger cycle of birth and rebirth, we realize that our time here is limited and precious. Each moment becomes an opportunity to grow, learn, and make a positive impact. By embracing the concept of reincarnation, we open ourselves to a richer understanding of our purpose and the interconnectedness of all life. It prompts us to live with consciousness, compassion, and a sense of responsibility.

Embracing the raw and unfiltered essence of this law invites us to explore the depths of our existence and contemplate the intricate tapestry of past lives woven into our present reality. One of the most striking aspects of the law of reincarnation raw is its insistence on the interconnectedness of all living beings. Each rebirth offers us a chance to learn from the experiences of our past lives and carry those lessons into our current existence. This interconnectedness emphasizes the importance of treating others with compassion and empathy, as we are all on our own unique soul journey. By recognizing the inherent value and worth of every individual, we can foster a sense of unity and harmony in our interactions. Furthermore, embracing the raw and unfiltered essence of the law of reincarnation raw challenges us to take responsibility for our actions. The concept of karma, the law of cause and effect, teaches us that our choices and deeds in each lifetime have consequences that will ultimately shape our future experiences. This understanding compels us to approach life with intention and consideration for the well-being of others, knowing that what we put out into the world will inevitably return to us.

Interest receivable is an amount of interest that is owed but has not yet been paid. Usually interest receivable is expected to be paid within a year, making it a current asset. The A/R turnover ratio is a measurement that shows how efficient a company is at collecting its debts. It divides the company’s credit sales in a given period by its average A/R during the same period. The result shows you how many times the company collected its average A/R during that time frame. - If there is a high chance of nonpayment, an offsetting bad debt allowance for a portion of the interest receivable may be necessary, lowering the net amount of the receivable. - In this case, the company creates an adjusting entry by debiting interest expense and crediting interest payable. - When it collects cash against its A/R balance, a company is converting the balance from one current asset to another. - Any investors who purchase the bonds at par are required to pay the issuer accrued interest for the time lapsed. - Similarly, this journal entry raises total assets and income by the same amount. - For example, the company might have an excess of funds that they earn from the operations and they might decide to invest that excess of funds to earn some more money by making a short-term or long-term deposit. In this case, the company creates an adjusting entry by debiting interest expense and crediting interest payable. The size of the entry equals the accrued interest from the date of the loan until Dec. 31. Accrued interest is usually counted as a current asset, for a lender, or a current liability, for a borrower, since it is expected to be received or paid within one year. When analyzed over time or comparatively against competing companies, managers can better understand ways to improve the financial health of a company.

The Entries for Closing a Revenue Account in a Perpetual Inventory System Some companies have a different business model and insist on being paid up front. In this case, the business doesn’t record an A/R transaction but instead enters a liability on its balance sheet to an account known as unearned revenue or prepaid revenue. If you extend credit to a customer or issue a loan, you receive interest payments. When you accrue interest as a lender or borrower, you create a journal entry to reflect the interest amount that accrued during an accounting period. This allows the company to recognize revenue in the period in which it is earned instead of waiting for the cash to be deposited in the bank. Receivables are listed as assets on the company’s balance sheet and carry a debit balance on the general ledger. Interest receivable refers to the interest that has been earned by investments, loans, or overdue invoices but has not actually been paid yet. Put another way, interest receivable is the expected interest revenue a company will receive. If reserves are not enough or need to be increased, more charges need to be made on the company’s income statement. Reserves are used to cover all sorts of issues, ranging from warranty return expectations to bad loan provisions at banks. If the firm’s interest-earning deposit or other receivable has the interest payment date at the month-end, there will be no interest receivable. The company will debit the cash account with the credit of interest revenue. When the company receives the cash paid, they need to reverse the accrued interest receivable from the balance sheet. In the income statement, interest income is recorded separately from the operating income if the income statement that the company uses is a multiple-step income statement. It depends on the interest rate, outstanding loan balance, and coverage period. For borrowers, interest payments represent a cost of borrowing money that must be factored into their overall financial planning. Whether you are a borrower or a lender, understanding interest income is an important part of effective financial management. Since this is the journal entry when the company recognizes interest income while the payment is not received yet. This applies to the trading or other kinds of company that its business model is not a financial institution. If the company is a financial institution, the interest income is the main income and it should be recorded in the income statement under the operating section. Get Your Questions Answered and Book a Free Call if Necessary Under GAAP, revenue is recorded on a company’s books when it’s earned and realizable, reports Accounting Tools. In other words, interest revenue is reported once your business has fulfilled all obligations of a transaction, such as delivering goods to a customer who purchases them on credit. Interest is realizable if you fully expect to receive payment in the future. The amount of accrued interest is posted as adjusting entries by both borrowers and lenders at the end of each month. The entry consists of interest income or interest expense on the income statement, and a receivable or payable account on the balance sheet. Since the payment of accrued interest is generally made within one year, it is classified as a current asset or current liability.

“Responsibility is to keep the ability to respond.” — Robert Duncan One of the greatest challenges on the spiritual path is to realize that you are responsible for your life and your choices. At first this can feel like a heavy burden or assuming you are to blame for everything in your life. The best way to understand responsibility is to realize that be taking responsibility for something you are giving yourself the ability to respond to what it. If you don’t take responsibility, you can’t actually do anything about something for which you are not willing to take responsibility, not for creating it, but for responding to it. When something happens in your life, blaming yourself or looking for who’s at fault simply keeps you stuck in being a victim. Taking responsibility means looking at the choices that you now have before you.. What is the healthiest, sanest, most wholesome choice you can make, from where you are right now? What choice can you make the makes the greatest contribution or makes a difference. Now you aren’t a victim nor are you stuck. Now you are taking responsibility for your life! Reflection: Is there some part of my life for which I don’t want to take responsibility? How could I engage my ability to respond? What new choice does that give me? Affirmation: I am willing and capable of taking responsibility for me life. I have the ability to respond to any situation or circumstance because I have the help and support of Spirit!!

We live in a same world. And we must take care of it all together. This is the main goal of the project SAME World, realized by 13 European NGOs and 12 associated organizations in order to shine a light on a theme which is currently a hot topic: the relationship between migrations and climate changes. The project will be presented during a press conference on Tuesday 20th October at Expo Milano 2015, in Cascina Triulza, the exhibition area dedicated to the Civil Society. SAME World (www.sameworld.eu) is a European-wide project – realized during the European Year of Development 2015 - whose aim is to involve students and teachers in building a new awareness on the relationship between poverty and environmental damages. Wars, overexploitation of natural resources, deforestations, drought: these problems are directly linked to the current model of development, which has a serious impact on the weakest areas of the world, forcing people to move abroad looking for better living conditions. The safeguard of natural resources, the adoption of sustainable development policies, the struggle against poverty and a fairer distribution of wealth: all of these concrete actions represent an effective way to involve governments and citizens in building a new model of development, based on environmental justice. The first step is investing in education: project partners will create an educational kit for students and teachers, which includes topics on environmental justice, environmental migrants and climate change. One of the main goals of the project SAME World is to involve actively citizenship and students: sensitization campaigns and educational activities will be organized in the schools. In addition, virtual education platform, mutual learning sessions, European student camping etc. will be implemented. For more information contact Margit Säre, margit @ ctc.ee

OHS got very different feedback on their Cost Cap project from two outside committees last week. The Healthcare Cabinet, chaired by OHS, was very supportive with one exception. In contrast, members of the Medicaid Oversight Council shared concerns only. In some respects, this reflects the differing experiences with past reforms between Medicaid and commercial plans. Completely controlled by state government and having achieved impressive progress in controlling costs while improving quality, Medicaid has a lot to lose and too often reforms are imposed there (to solve problems that don’t exist there) because policymakers can. In contrast, consumer costs in commercial insurance are high and rising in Connecticut, while quality and value are average at best. However, the state has few levers to improve value in private plans. The difference in receptivity to the Cost Cap is likely also due to very different stakeholders at each table. Cabinet membership is dominated by industries and state agencies with minimal consumer advocacy. MAPOC, on the other hand, has real world providers, decent consumer representation, and a long history of engagement and collaboration while holding administrators accountable. Feedback from the Cabinet last Tuesday, with one exception, focused on provider reimbursements, details of how higher primary care spending will be implemented, how OHS will adjust for the impact of COVID, and dismissing any potential for underservice or other unintended consequences. OHS confirmed that they still intend to pursue controversial Performance Improvement Plans (PIPs) to enforce the Cost Cap. PIPs would be negotiated in secret with any payer or entity OHS says exceeded their Cap. The bill to implement PIPs did not pass this year because the legislative session ended early. OHS’s In contrast, on Friday MAPOC members raised concerns about the Cost Cap including inadequate underservice monitoring, harm to vulnerable Medicaid members, the danger of PIPs to enforce the Cap, the lack of public input in Cost Cap planning, and jeopardizing hard won value improvements in the program. Several members believed that quality improvement should be implemented before the Cost Cap rather than after. OHS’s consultant replied that, while they were not involved in drafting the Governor’s Executive Order, the reason quality reporting is delayed until after the Cost Cap is because it is hard to get consensus among providers about how and what to measure. There was no explanation for why providers, who will be subject to the measures, are driving that process. A concern was offered that doubling primary care spending while reducing the total cost of healthcare is likely to cut other critical care, that research suggests that doubling primary care spending is not likely to start re-orienting the healthcare system toward primary care. Advocates have offered at least 38 better, safer, and more effective ways to support primary care in Connecticut. Concerns about primary care crowding out other critical services, especially important to the Medicaid population, were dismissed. It was suggested that using economic measures to Cap healthcare costs is inappropriate. Healthcare availability should not depend year-to-year on gas prices or unemployment; in fact, a recession with high unemployment is the worst time to limit healthcare services. Another concern centered on granting such extraordinary power to one agency with limited accountability or transparency, lasting into future administrations. Advocates are concerned about OHS’s track record in policymaking including increasing costs for patients and the state and increasing barriers to primary care access for over low-income 25,000 New Haven residents and plans to sell consumers’ sensitive medical records to insurers, large health systems, and potentially others. Concerns were raised about using 2020 and 2021 as benchmark years to calculate the Cap, given the impact of the pandemic on healthcare spending. According to OHS, the rush to implement the Cost Cap was due to public pressure. While it is true that policymakers are hearing strong concerns from voters about the costs of healthcare, it is not clear that voters would approve sacrificing quality or access to care to lower costs. In the past, bare bones insurance plans were not popular. A further concern was raised about how unnecessary care would be identified and cut. A consumer advocate noted that the Cost Cap project is not giving consumers enough credit to know what works. Concerns were raised that although proponents claim that the Cost Cap will result in lower consumers costs, there is no provision for that. It is entirely possible that only corporate entities will see any savings leaving consumers still paying too much. Concerns were also raised about the cost of implementing the Cost Cap, estimated at $3.3 million by OFA five years ago.

The growth of the Android market has increased the demand for testing applications on this platform. Android App Testing is a type of manual testing done by testers and quality analysts to test the application on real smartphones and tablets. Some general tests like usability and compatibility with different screen sizes, screen resolutions, and browsers are executed during this testing. It is challenging for testers with no experience in mobile devices to perform these tests effectively. You’ll need to test your app on as many devices as possible because every device is different and can present different challenges. For Android App Developers who don’t have much knowledge about Android App Testing, this article will prove to be helpful as it covers all the topics discussed above in a simplistic way. Android app testing is testing an Android application before it is released to the public. Android app testing is different from traditional web application testing because of the following reasons: - Android applications are dynamic, which means they behave differently on different devices with different versions of Android OS. - They also have access to different sensors like GPS, camera, etc. - Android apps are more complex than web applications as they can use various services running in the background. - They also connect to various external sources like databases and APIs. - Android apps have user interfaces that must be tested for usability and functionality. It is a vital step in the development cycle and helps ensure that an app is ready for release. There are many benefits of Android app testing, but here are just a few: - Android apps are complex programs with many features and functionalities. As a result, there are bound to be some bugs in them. These bugs can make an app crash or malfunction. It’s essential to identify these bugs so that they can be fixed before releasing the app to the public. - Android app testing helps in ensuring the quality of an application by checking for bugs, errors, usability issues, and other problems. This can be done by testing the application from different perspectives like functionality, performance, security, etc. - Android provides a secure environment for its users by providing several layers of security such as encryption, authentication, etc. However, these features need to be tested to ensure they work properly. - Automated Android App Testing also helps improve user experience by identifying the defects in the application, which may cause problems during execution or after release. This helps to eliminate any bugs and errors from your application so that it can provide a smooth user experience to its users. - Performance optimization is another critical benefit of Android app testing because if there are any performance issues, then they can be identified in advance through this process to avoid any negative impact on users’ experience with your app. Mobile app testing can be performed at different levels: Various types of testing are performed on a mobile app before it’s released for public use. However, functional testing is one of the most important types of testing that should be performed on an Android app. It helps you to ensure that your application works as expected. With functional testing, you can check if your application is performing as planned and that it meets the requirements of the users. Functional testing should be performed on both the new and existing features in your app. Some of the things that you need to test during functional testing include: - Working on each feature (e.g., login, sign up) - Working on all buttons and menus - The responsiveness of different pages or screens of your application Compatibility testing is the process of testing an application across all the devices, operating systems, and platforms that it supports. A mobile app needs to be compatible with all the devices that run on different operating systems. This can only be achieved by compatibility testing. This is especially important when launching an app in multiple countries or regions because there are often differences in device capabilities and operating systems. We need to test our mobile app on different devices because each device has its specifications and screen size, which might not be suitable for our application. Some features might work adequately on one device while they may not work on another device or operating system. To ensure that your app is compatible with different devices, you should test it on as many devices as possible before releasing it. Integration testing is a type of software testing which ensures that all the components of an application work together and integrate well. It is done in the later stages of Android App Automation Testing. Integration Testing helps in ensuring that: - All modules are working as expected - Components are integrated correctly, and their interfaces are compatible with each other - There are no conflicts between different modules or components Performance testing is a process of checking the performance of your product or application. It can be done manually or automated. Performance testing ensures that your product performs well under different conditions and stress tests. Performance testing involves checking the behavior of applications under different levels of load, stress, and resource usage. This helps you to determine what happens when multiple users access the application at the same time. Performance Testing also includes load testing, which is used to determine the maximum number of users that an application can handle without any degradation in its performance. Network testing is the process of testing your app against the real-world internet. This includes ensuring that your app loads quickly, works offline, and can handle errors. Network testing is crucial because it helps you catch issues that would otherwise appear in production after release. Network testing is essential when testing email clients, online games, and other apps that require fast connections. Without network testing, there’s no way of knowing whether your app will work on slow networks or even if it’ll be able to connect at all! - It helps them find out if their app is working correctly or not. - It lets them know if their app is performing well or not in different types of networks. - It tests the performance of an application by simulating real-life scenarios like browsing websites, sending emails, etc. Here are some of the most common issues you need to be aware of: - Slow load times: If your app takes more than 5 seconds to load, users will abandon it. Check to see if your app launches quickly. - Error handling: Make sure that errors are handled and don’t prevent users from using the app. If a user tries to sign in to your app and an error occurs, they will often close their browser or phone and not try again later when they have time. - Offline functionality: Make sure your app works offline and online so users can use it even when there’s no internet connection available (e.g., on a plane). Security testing is a process of identifying vulnerabilities in the application. It is also known as penetration testing, conducted to identify security threats, design flaws, and loopholes that hackers can exploit. Security testing is necessary for all organizations, primarily financial, healthcare, government, and defense industries. The importance of security testing is that it helps detect and prevent any security flaws such as SQL injection attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), cross-site request forgery (CSRF), etc., which can lead to data theft or loss of sensitive information. Hackers can exploit vulnerable code to gain unauthorized access to the application, steal confidential data and manipulate system functionalities. Security testing ensures that an application: - It is developed according to security standards and guidelines; - It does not have any loopholes that attackers can use; and - Has the necessary mechanisms for detecting and preventing attacks on the application’s resources Interrupt testing is the process of identifying and fixing bugs that occur when a user is interacting with your app. An interruption may be caused by a call coming through during a game or while you are writing an email, or any other time when the user is performing a task on their phone. How your app responds to these interruptions can be crucial for its success or failure. The primary purpose of interrupt testing is to check the responsiveness of your app. If a user is tapping on a button or link, the app should respond to that action as soon as possible. Interrupt testing also ensures that there are no crashes or bugs that impede the responsiveness of your app. The ideal time for interrupt testing is when users use your app in a real-world setting. For example, if you have an eCommerce app, then it is essential to perform interrupt testing when users are browsing through items on the website or adding them to their carts. An Android testing framework is a tool that can be used to test Android apps. Automated Android App Testing is a set of classes that helps automate the testing of Android applications. The Android testing framework provides an API for performing functional, system, and acceptance testing. Appium is a prevalent open-source test framework for Android apps. The Appium testing framework can be used to automate any mobile app on any device or emulator. It’s completely free, trustworthy, and simple to use. Robotium is a testing framework for Android applications. Robotium has become one of the most popular Android testing frameworks, used by many developers to perform automated functional and regression tests on their applications. Robotium allows you to write automated UI tests for Android applications in Java through a simple yet powerful API that can test native (C++) and hybrid (Java) apps on real devices or emulators. Key features of the Robotium framework include: - Native, hybrid, and mobile web apps are all supported; - Simple API based on annotations; - This framework can be used to create functions, system test cases, and user acceptance test cases. - Robotium supports all major versions of Android, as well as Dialogs, Menus, and Activities. - This framework automatically manages several Android activities. The following are some basic best practices for Android App Testing are : - Test on multiple devices - Test on multiple OS versions - Test with an actual device, not an emulator - Use different screen sizes, densities, and configurations - Test across different network connections and locations - Test in low-bandwidth conditions (WiFi and mobile) - Test for memory leaks and battery drain Android App Testing is an essential phase of any application development. It should be carried out efficiently and diligently to ensure that the software has no flaws, loopholes, or defects. To complete a testing project, the testers must be skilled, experienced, and knowledgeable in this field. It is a beneficial process that can enhance the development process, increase customer loyalty, and improve your app’s overall user experience. In conclusion, apps are getting more and more complicated these days. Therefore it’s a must to be able to test them efficiently.

In business parlance, “market research” refers to systematically gathering and analysing information on a particular market sector or intended customer base. Insights about supply and demand, industry rivals, similar items on the market, and potential customers are all included. Typically, the price range for ready-made market research papers in Sydney is between $1,000 and $3,000. If a customer necessitates survey work, you may ask for anything from $6,000 to $20,000 to do surveys by email, phone, or snail mail. When you have a new company concept, want to create or launch a new product, or enter a new market, online market research in Sydney is essential. Before embarking on any substantial, potentially risky change, it is essential first to do thorough market research grounded in data analysis. You must conduct continuous market research to discover answers to the issues that will occur throughout the strategy’s development, execution, and optimisation stages. Researching the market may assist you in determining your place in it and validate any assumptions you may have had about your demands. In this case, the primary research question is: Who will find your product most beneficial, and why? It is essential to analyse the size of your target market and the current demand for your product or service. Knowing who you’re selling to helps shape your product and marketing approach. To estimate your market share, you need to know where people are shopping for these goods and how much they are willing to pay.
