Fairbanks Morse, a United States-based manufacturing company, will this week introduce its its ‘PoweReliability-as-a-Service’ platform to Africa at an event dubbed the Power & Electricity World Africa conference in Johannesburg.
Fairbanks states that the platform will deliver affordable, reliable power to underserved populations or disaster-prone locations worldwide.
Fairbanks Morse has sent representatives to the South Africa conference, slated for March 27th and March 28th, 2018. The firm will be presenting its PoweReliability-as-a-Service platform, which is famous for its fuel-efficient architecture.
“The Fairbanks Morse PoweReliability-as-a-Service platform delivers distributed power generation for independent power producers or large commercial and industrial (C&I) organizations,” the organisation said in a statement.
“Backed by fuel efficiency and reliability guarantees that are monitored in the cloud-based platform, PoweReliability-as-a-Service reduces risk and operating expenses for end users who want to generate their own power,” the company added.
Using the service, Fairbanks Morse projects $35 million in savings to be achieved in fuel consumption and increased reliability.
“Coupling the launch of our ground-breaking Trident OP engine with the PoweReliability-as-a-Service platform is the next evolution in Fairbanks Morse’s long history of providing affordable and reliable distributed power generation,” said Fairbanks Morse President Marvin Riley.
“This platform-based approach will allow us to accelerate our corporate mission to deliver power where it is needed most,” he added.
“This first-of-its-kind solution enables our customers to become reliable independent power producers – even in the most remote areas of the world that do not have access to a dependable grid. We believe PoweReliability-as-a-Service can empower economic growth, access to clean water and healthcare, and community safety,” Riley continued.
The announcement comes at a time when, 1.2 billion people across the globe lack access to power and another billion only have access to intermittent power.
These emerging economies are expected to see a 41% increase in energy demand through 2040. Alternatively, in the United States where energy demand is flat, an aging grid and superstorms are causing power reliability issues with increasing frequency.
“This platform-based approach is transforming the way electricity is produced and consumed globally. The result is an emerging grid that is cleaner, more distributed, and increasingly intelligent – also known as the Energy Cloud,” said Adam Forni, Senior Research Analyst with Navigant Research.
“Generator manufacturers like Fairbanks Morse are pushing disruption by providing new platform-based solutions that are efficient, flexible, and leverage remote monitoring, controls, and predictive analytics. The platform-based approach will allow them to unlock new business models and position them to serve growing demand from commercial and industrial facilities for both grid-tied and remote applications,” he explained.

Hi! I’m Sarah!
A follower of Jesus, wife to the best man I know and mummy to two small, rambunctious boys. And I know it’s a cliche, but being a mother is the best and hardest thing I’ve ever done. These crazy, snotty and hilarious gifts demand almost all that I am and have (my sleep, my ice cream and sometimes even my sanity).
Aside from the regular ups and downs of having small kiddos, I’ve struggled with depression through pregnancy and during the first year of each boy’s life. Thankfully, it’s never lasted more than a few months at a time, but there have been some pretty dark days. I’ve relied on short, encouraging phrases to keep me just doing the next thing, and brief, desperate prayers asking for God’s strength to get through the next 5 minutes. And I know that I’m not alone in this. Whether it’s depression, or exhaustion or just plain old busyness, we all need constant reminders of the things that really matter, and a breath-by-breath reliance on God for the grace and strength to live right here, right now where He has placed us.
So, when I started to learn handlettering at the beginning of this year I was thrilled to find that the process of carefully drawing and arranging the words of Scripture or other encouraging phrases helped me to actually meditate on them! The words just kept buzzing around in my head, and I found myself genuinely encouraged. So I framed the art that I was creating and left it around the house as extra reminders of the things that really matter in life, and the eternal perspective that needs to be applied to each moment.
After a while, I figured that maybe these designs could be a blessing to more than just me. And so I’m in the process of making them available for anyone who just needs a Small Encouragement! You’ll find that many of the designs fit nicely into those mini frames you can buy at Micheal’s and Walmart, and they are small enough to perch by your kitchen sink or nightstand, or on your desk or mantelpiece without taking up too much room.
I’m always on the look out for perky and pithy phrases to work into new designs, so let me know if there’s a Scripture or quote that you’d like me to work on, and I’ll add it to my list! You can email me through my contact page, or just leave me a comment!
Finally, I do love to work on custom pieces – larger pieces of art and also logos. Let me know what I can help you with!

NASA spacecraft enters orbit around Mars
By Alicia Chang, Associated Press Science Writer
PASADENA, Calif. — A NASA spacecraft successfully slipped into orbit around Mars Friday, joining a trio of orbiters already circling the red planet.
"It was picture perfect," project manager Jim Graf said.

"Oh I am very relieved," project manager Jim Graf said minutes later. "It was picture perfect." (Videoroject managers rejoice)
The two-ton spacecraft is the most sophisticated ever to arrive at Mars and is expected to gather more data on the Red Planet than all previous Martian missions combined.
It will explore Mars in low orbit for four years and is expected to churn out the most detailed information ever about the planet and its climate and landscape.
In the fall, the orbiter will begin exploring the Martian atmosphere, scan the surface for evidence of ancient water and scout for future landing sites to send robotic and possibly human explorers.
The $720 million mission is managed by JPL in Pasadena.
After a seven-month, 310 million-mile journey, the orbiter arrived at Mars Friday for the risky orbit insertion phase. Project managers had been nervous because of Mars' reputation of swallowing scientific probes.
But the Reconnaissance Orbiter performed the move without problem.
As it neared the planet, it fired its main propulsion engines for 27 minutes to slow itself down so that the planet's gravity could pull it into orbit. At one point during the burn, the spacecraft disappeared behind Mars — as engineers had planned — and was temporarily out of radio contact with controllers.
Mission control was visibly tense as it awaited word from the orbiter, which reappeared and signaled that it had entered into an elliptical orbit around Mars that will swing it as close as 250 miles above the surface.
The spacecraft will spend seven months dipping into the upper atmosphere to shrink the orbit.
The successful mission was welcome news for NASA, which has a mixed record of putting spacecraft into orbit around Mars.
In the last 15 years, NASA lost two orbiters back-to-back — the Mars Observer in 1993 and the Mars Climate Orbiter in 1999 — during the orbit insertion phase.
The Reconnaissance Orbiter is the fourth eye on the Martian sky, joining NASA's Mars Global Surveyor and Mars Odyssey and the European Space Agency's Mars Express, which have been mapping the planet the past few years. On the surface, the NASA rovers Spirit and Opportunity, continue their robotic geology missions.
The newest orbiter is loaded with the most advanced science instruments ever sent to another planet including a telescopic camera to photograph the surface in unprecedented detail and radar to probe underground for ice and possible evidence of liquid water.
The spacecraft won't beam back images or data until November. Like previous space probes before it, it will seek for evidence of ancient water and other signs that the planet could have been hospitable to life.
It will also scan for potential spots to land the next generation of robotic rovers and determine whether human outposts can survive on the dusty planet.
Present-day Mars is dry and cold with large caps of frozen water at its poles, but scientists believe the planet once was warmer and wetter eons ago — conditions that might have been suitable for life.
During the mission's second phase, the orbiter will transmit data between Earth and Mars. It is expected to serve as a communication relay for the Phoenix Mars Scout, which will explore the icy north pole in 2008 and the Mars Science Laboratory, an advanced rover scheduled to launch in 2009.
The Reconnaissance Orbiter's primary mission will end in 2010.

Great, three orbiters to map....what exactly?
...and if we discover that at some time in the distant past 4 billion years Mars was inhabited by a bug of some kind...this benefits us...how?

Exactly. Water on Mars, water on a moon of Saturn...... Who gives a ****?
Stop putting money into finding out how Earth was formed millions of years ago, and put money into trying to keep the planet around for another billion years.

Actually, I am something of a science buff...this all sounds pretty exciting.
At the very least, it's a great step up from sending quarter-billion dollar kamikaze missions to the Mars arctic.

Asking for It
I absolutely loved Louise O’Neill’s debut novel Only Ever Yours so when I learned about Asking for It, I knew I needed to read it. My first question was, is it as hard-hitting as her first book? The answer I received: Absolutely - it’s even more scarily on-point.
O’Neill is fantastically outspoken, just follow her on social media and see. I love the pithy comments she makes and her shrewd but devastatingly true insights about society. From these I should’ve known that Asking for It was going to be a tough read. It was not going to be a nice book to read. But it was going to be an important book to read.
Asking for It is set in the world as we know it; in small-town Ireland. Emma is our lead and she is 18, beautiful and popular. There’s a party that everyone at her school attends and Emma drinks as she always does, but this party is different. She awakens on the porch of her house the next morning with no memory of what happened the night before. She wakes bruised and in pain. What happened? Emma’s party exploits are all online for everyone to see: She’s in many photos, in all sorts of half-clothed, compromising positions, all with faceless male figures and all things that she doesn’t remember doing.
What follows is a horrible story of Emma’s (drunken) word against those of the boys in the photos; most of who are the sons of some of the most powerfully placed people in the town. It’s a story of no one believing what happened or, worse, saying that she was probably acting like she deserved it – like she was asking for it.
Asking for It is a book that needed to be written a long time ago about a subject that needs to be talked about. It is an utterly mesmerising and powerful book, but it was not an enjoyable read. O’Neill writes her teenage characters in a scarily accurate light. They speak and act just right and are so believable that you can imagine them being at your bus stop in the morning. But, they are also rather abhorrent. Emma included, if I am honest.
She has been put through an experience that no one should be put through. She is treated utterly cruelly and she has next to no support at home and because the book is set in such a small town, everyone knows everyone’s business. The spotlight is well and truly on Emma and her family and her parents don’t like that. They just want their life to return to normal. They want Emma to drop the case and forget about it. It’s one against the many and the many are adamant that Emma is at fault.
The only character I liked in this book was Emma’s brother. He’s the only one who has her back. Everyone else is weak, cruel or, as said earlier, completely abhorrent. Even Emma’s own actions, not in regards to that night but in the aftermath are irritatingly feeble. She is crippled by self-doubt and a weakness of character, which is completely understandable as she has no one to hold her hand, no one who believes her and no one who is going to help her. But it does make for a very gritted teeth read.
I read somewhere that another author described O’Neill’s writing as if “she writes with a scalpel.” This is most definitely the case for Asking for It. It’s an emotionally raw and painful read. Each word cut me deeper and made me want to yell with outrage and cry with pity and frustration until I finally settled my face on something between a frown and an open-mouthed pose of shock. This book hit me and hit me hard. It made me really question the society that we live in and how things like this (because things like this definitely happen) are allowed to happen and, worse, go unpunished.
Although challenging, Asking For It hasn’t put me off O’Neill’s work. She’s an author that I will constantly watch out for. As soon as she’s released a new book, I’ll be there in the bookshop, instantly handing over my money so that I can have another taste of her incredible talent.

Nanoprotect AG for automotive glass from Nanotec has been successfully used on car windscreens in Canada. Nanotec partner Répare Bris has been extensively using this product under the full range of Northern Hemisphere conditions, with stunning results.
Nanoprotect AG is a unique, transparent, water repellent nanotechnology treatment specifically developed for automotive glass. Nanoparticles adhere directly to the glass and assemble into an invisible, ultra-thin, three dimensional mesh which provides a hydrophobic (water repelling) surface. The glass maintains its original clarity, while being protected against the elements. Water runs off easily from the treated surface and most dirt particles are washed off by rain or when rinsed with water.

Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight has teased that the story is 'not yet over' for the Cillian Murphy phenomenon on the 10th anniversary of the show amid rumours it's getting a movie.
Wrapping up its sixth and supposedly final season last year, a staggering 3.7 million people tuned in to see what happened to Murphy's Tommy Selby.
Today's top videos
STORY CONTINUES BELOW
Beginning life as a hidden gem on the BBC, the show blew up following it being picked up by Netflix and gaining fans from all corners of the world.
Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, the show's creator Steven told fans to 'watch this space' as the story 'is not yet over' for the gang.
'It hardly seems believable that it’s ten years since Tommy Shelby first rode that black horse through the streets of Birmingham. The phenomenal global success of the show is down to the brilliance and hard work of the loyal team that makes it happen.
'Ten years on and the story is not yet over. Watch this space... A decade today since Series 1 Episode 1 of Peaky Blinders first aired, on BBC Two.
'Huge thanks to our incredible fans for the past ten years. Here’s to the next ten,' he said.
A movie version of the series has been rumoured for many years, with fans demanding it following the ambiguous ending of the show's final season.
Despite being the face of one of the biggest programmes of the 2010s, Irish actor Murphy has one particular pet peeve with the show's fanbase.
He told the Radio Times last year: 'That’s probably the worst thing about Peaky Blinders – getting asked about the movie all the time!'
'I would love to do a movie if there’s more story to tell. I’ll wait and see but I have no update for you on that.'
Murphy is currently leading the pack as favourite to land Best Actor at next year's Academy Awards for his performance in Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer.
Perhaps he could be getting his second nomination in the future for his work as the character he's played for a decade?

This application is based on co-pending German Patent Application 19750 592.9 filed Nov. 17, 1997.
1. Technical Field
The invention relates to a device for depositing sheets output by an office machine, such as a computer printer or copier, according to the preamble of claim 1.
2. Background Art
In the case of numerous office machines, such as printers, telecopiers, copying devices etc., the sheets provided by the office machine with recordings are deposited in stacked form. If successive sheets which belong to different processes are deposited on the stack, it is necessary to select laboriously from the stack the sheet groups belonging to the individual processes. This is the case, for example, if several monitor work stations are connected to a common central printer, if different printing jobs are associated with different operators or if different documents are copied successively.
From Patents Abstracts of Japan M-657 (JP 62-167170 A) a copying device is known which comprises a supply tray for copying paper and a supply tray for separating films. After a group of associated copies have been deposited in stacked form in a deposit tray of the copying device, a separating film is deposited under control onto the stack. The separating films are longer than the sheets of the copying paper so that the separating films project from the stack in the deposit tray. In this way the associated sheets of a group can be readily separated and removed. The tray for the separating films is disposed at the supply tray for the copying paper. The separating films are transported through the copying device via the same transporting path as the copying paper. The separating films must therefore have substantially the same dimensions of width and the same material properties as the copying paper. The separating films are therefore not well suited for multiple use. Accordingly, simple placement of the used separating films back into the supply tray is not provided. From CH 647 735 A5 is known an arrangement for stacking folded printed sheets, in which the printed sheets drop into a stacking receptacle at the end of a conveying path and are stacked there. An associated group of printed sheets is each held together by an upper and a lower end plate. The end plates are individually supplied from a tray disposed above the stacking receptacle in holding devices, which deposit the end plates onto the stack of the printed sheets. The end plates have the same dimensions as the printed sheets and do not serve for dividing the stack but rather for pressing together the printed sheets.
From Patents Abstracts of Japan M-1168 (JP 3-166 164 A) is known an office machine in which at the holding bin for the recording paper also a holding bin for separating films is provided. After a group of sheets has been provided with recordings and deposited in stacked form in a deposit tray, a separating film is deposited under control onto the deposit stacking order to be able to separate the stack more readily. The separating films are transported from the holding bin through the office machine to the deposit tray with the separating films being transported by means of a shunt system past the recording station of the office machine. The arrangement for supplying the separating films is complicated and expensive. The dimensions of the separating film and the material properties are determined by the transport of the separating films through the office machine and cannot be freely selected. Accordingly, the separating films are poorly suited for multiple and repeated use and a simple placing-back of the used separating films into the supply bin is not provided.
In the case of all of these known arrangements the tray for the separating films is integrated into the office machine and the supply of the separating films to the sheet depository takes place through the office machine. It is therefore not possible, or at least very difficult to develop the same office machine optionally with or without a supply mechanism for separating films.
Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement for the deposition of sheets output by an office machine, to enable as an option selectively the deposition of separating films for separating the sheets deposited in stacked form.
The invention relates to the disposing of a tray or container for receiving separating films at the sheet depository and combining it with the latter to provide the capability of building or adding onto a commercially available office machine, alternatively to a conventional sheet depository for separating films. A guiding device of the structural unit serves for the purpose of supplying the sheets output by the office machine and, upon a control command, to supply the particular separating film to an ejection device, which conveys the sheets or the separating films into the sheet depository and deposit them on the stack.
The above mentioned and other objects and features of this invention and the manner of attaining them will become apparent, and the invention itself will be best understood by reference to the following description of the embodiment of the invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
In the following the invention will be described in further detail in conjunction with an embodiment example depicted in the drawing. FIG. 1 shows schematically the arrangement in vertical section.
A commercially available office machine 10 is depicted only schematically. This office machine can be, for example, a printer or a copier. The office machine 10 comprises a sheet output 12 via which are output the sheets provided in the office machine 10 with recordings.
Adjoining the sheet output 12 the arrangement according to the invention is built or added onto the office machine 10 which is disposed in a housing 14.
The arrangement comprises a sheet depository 16 into which the sheets 18, output by the office machine 10, are deposited so as to be stacked. The sheet depository 16 is accessible on the side of the housing 14 facing away from the office machine 10 such that the stack of sheets 18 can be removed at this side. In order to be able to separate in simple manner associated groups of sheets 18 deposited on the stack, separating films 20 are provided which, in at least one dimension, have greater dimensions than the sheets 18 such that they project beyond the edge of the stack of sheets 18 and permit the simple separation of the stack.
The separating films 20 are kept in a tray 22 which is disposed in the housing 14 above the sheet depository 16. The tray 22 accepts a stack of separating films 20. The tray 22 comprises a singling device 24 by means of which the separating films 20 can be pulled singly from the tray 22. The singling device 24 can be realized in any manner known to the person skilled in the art. Since the separating films 20 can be used repeatedly, the separating films 20 comprise preferably synthetic material including thermoplastic material, paper or thin cardboard such that they have sufficient durability and stressability. The separating films 20 usefully comprise intrinsic rigidity and are resiliently flexible. The singling device 24 can be adapted to the dimensions and material properties of the separating films 20. By lifting the separating films 20 at their margin projecting beyond the stack of sheets 18, the stack can therefore be searched readily in order to find the desired group of sheets 18 and to pull them out of the stack. The tray 22 comprises a receptacle, open at the top, for the separating films 20 which receptacle is preferably freely accessible at the top of housing 14 such that the separating films 20, removed from the deposition stack and no longer required, can be readily placed back into the tray 22 and are available for further use in the tray 22.
In housing 14 there is further disposed a guiding device 26, which is combined with the sheet depository 16 and the tray 22 in the housing 14 to form a structural unit. The guiding device 26 serves the purpose of guiding the sheets 18 arriving from the sheet output 12 of the office machine 10 and, alternatively, the separating films 20 output by the tray 22 via its singling device 24 to the sheet depository 16 where the sheets 18, respectively the separating films 20, are grasped by ejection means 28, for example in the form of pairs of rollers, and transported to the sheet depository 16 and are there deposited on the stack.
After the housing 14 is added to the office machine 10, the guiding device 26 adjoins the sheet output 12 of the office machine 10. The guiding device 26 comprises a first sheet guide 30 which adjoins the sheet output 12 and which accepts the sheets 18 exiting from the sheet output 12. The first sheet guide 30 branches into a second sheet guide 32 and a third sheet guide 34. The second sheet guide 32 guides the sheets 18 downwardly to the ejection means 28. The third sheet guide 34 guides the sheets 18 to a turning station 36.
At the branching of the first sheet guide 30 into the second sheet guide 32 and the third sheet guide 34 a shunt 38 is disposed which can be switched over in order to direct or guide, under control, the sheets 18 entering from the sheet output 12 into the first sheet guide 30 optionally into the second sheet guide 32 or the third sheet guide 34. If the sheets 18 are supplied via the second sheet guide 32 directly to the ejection means 28 and transported by them into the sheet depository 16, the sheets 18 are deposited in the sheet depository 16 with the same orientation in which they are output by the office machine 10. If the sheets 18 are to be deposited after having been turned, the sheets 18 coming from the sheet output 12 are guided by means of shunt 38 via the third sheet guide 34 into the turning station 36.
After sheet 18 has been transported with its entire length into the turning station 36, sheet 18 is supplied by means of transport rollers 40 via a fourth sheet guide 42 to the ejection means 28. Therein the originally trailing rear edge of the sheet 18 is turned toward the front and its originally upper side is turned downwardly and deposited by the ejection means 28 in the sheet depository 16. The tray 22 is disposed in the housing 14 above the sheet depository 16 and the turning station 36 in such a manner that the singling device 24 supplies the separating films 20 from the tray 22 via a film guide 44 to the guiding device 26. The film guide 44 intersects in the guiding device 26 the third sheet guide 34 and terminates jointly with the second sheet guide 32 and the fourth sheet guide 42 in the direction of the ejection means 28.
While particular embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed, it is to be understood that various different modifications are possible and are contemplated within the true spirit and scope of the appended claims. There is no intention, therefore, of limitations to the exact abstract or disclosure herein presented.

Abstract: The quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) plays an important role in affecting the interannual variability of boreal-winter stratospheric polar vortex. Multiple mechanisms have been proposed for this so-called “Holton–Tan effect”, i.e. the stratospheric polar vortex tends to be stronger when the lower-stratospheric QBO is in its westerly phase but weaker when the QBO is easterly. So far, most of the existing mechanisms focus on changes in the waveguide and the planetary-scale Rossby waves. These mechanisms are often approached mainly from the viewpoint of wave mean-flow interaction, i.e. the polar vortex is weakened by the wave drag via enhanced Eliassen‐Palm flux convergence. However, it remains puzzling as why the Holton–Tan effect is noticeably weaker in climate models though these large-scale processes should supposedly be resolvable.
In this talk, we reveal some new, additional processes from the viewpoints of potential vorticity (PV). We call attention to a pronounced and significant region where nonlinear wave-wave interaction and finite-amplitude effects prevail. Evidence will be provided to show that wave breaking in the lowermost stratosphere can lead to both irreversible PV mixing and internal wave generation, i.e. wave decay is closely related to wave growth following wave-breaking events. Evidence will also be provided to show that these processes are systematically modulated by the QBO. The nonlinear processes will lead to enhanced net wave forcing on the stratospheric polar vortex and more frequent stratospheric sudden warmings during easterly QBO. Based on these results, we would conclude that the “Holton–Tan effect” is mainly associated with the QBO-induced secondary circulation, instead of a change in the stratospheric waveguide originally proposed by Holton and Tan (1980).

A HEARTS AND MINDS APPROACH
Dr. Jehan Perera draws attention to containing globally inspired terrorism
The sudden deterioration of Sri Lanka’s security situation has come as a shock to citizens as well as the international community. Moreover, the targeting of churches and hotels in the Easter Sunday attacks, and the high level of casualties, has generated mass global media attention.
Indeed, the suicide explosions have brought Sri Lanka into the orbit of global Islamic extremism. It is frightening to find ourselves being dragged into an international conflict that we didn’t think about too much and over which we seem to have little control.
Why was Sri Lanka chosen as an Islamic State (IS) target? And why did the suicide bombers want to give up their lives to attack Christians in a country where they are a minority of a little over seven percent of the population?
Christian-Muslim relations in Sri Lanka have been largely cordial and accommodative even as they join hands in common causes affecting them as minorities. Both Christians and Muslims, who represent an estimated 9.3 percent of the population, have faced problems with the majority community and localised violence at times. But strangely, Christians became the targets of the Muslim suicide bombers and this has given rise to conspiracy theories.
In the Catholic Church, which suffered attacks on two of its houses of worship, there’s speculation that they were targeted because of their support for the anti-drug campaign initiated by President Maithripala Sirisena.
Sri Lanka has become a transit point for the global drug trade, and the president’s campaign has netted large quantities of drugs and led to dozens of drug dealer arrests. In some circles, the loss of income and personnel is thought to have precipitated attacks by drug syndicates linked to IS.
Today, with national security given the highest priority, hardly any objections will be voiced publicly against the vesting of emergency powers with the security forces. Public sentiment is to ensure that the apprehension of terrorists is priority number one.
In a bid to contain the security threat, the government brought in emergency regulations that give special powers to the security forces. Soldiers who have limited training in dealing with civilians are entering people’s homes in cordon and search operations. And there are reports that the military are being tough on Muslims when visiting their homes.
The danger is that unless they’re conducted with professionalism and courtesy, such search operations can alienate Muslims and lead more youth to join the ranks of militant organisations. This will be a throwback to the past – to the nearly three decade long civil war that the Sri Lankan state waged against Tamil rebels. There were search operations then that led to allegations of human rights violations that further alienated the targeted people.
As a way to remedy the past, for the last four years or so Sri Lanka has committed and recommitted itself to abide by international norms in regard to dealing with human rights issues.
The reported failure of the security apparatus and intelligence agencies to share information with political leaders, and engage in proactive security measures, was shocking. And the opposition charges that this was due to the government’s over-deference to working within the global human rights framework set by the international community.
Dealing with religion based extremism requires a nuanced approach in which human rights considerations must moderate national security imperatives. Civic, moral and religious leaders of all communities should reflect on areas where each community could do more to improve engagement and relationships with others.
We should not repeat the mistakes of the past. In 1979, the late President J. R. Jayewardene issued orders for the security forces to eradicate terrorism in the north within six months. However, the alienation that set in due to heavy-handed counterterrorism action alienated the people – and the seeds of a protracted war were sown.
Sri Lanka is not alone in facing multiple terrorist bombings – even developed, wealthy and more powerful nations have suffered a similar fate. We can expect their support as our problem is also theirs.
The government’s task is to deploy security forces personnel who can operate within the law and take action that yields results. So the challenge of governance – and to the security forces – is to act within the framework of the law and human rights norms, and prevent acts of terrorism through a combination of national security, international cooperation, and domestic ‘hearts and minds’ strategies.

Word is already out: Black Friday sales, which traditionally begin the Friday after Thanksgiving, have been leaked to websites and news outlets throughout the country. If you want to find out what discounts your favorite store is offering, chances are that a little digging online will reveal them. BlackFriday2010.com, which is run by coupon site Brad's Deals, already lists discounts from Ace Hardware and Sears.
[In Pictures: 12 Money Mistakes Almost Everyone Makes.]
Before you give too much credit to the sleuthing skills of the websites that post these early deals, consider this: Many retailers leak their sales early, on purpose. Sears, for example, started offering its Black Friday deals on Fridays and Saturdays starting at the end of October, and scored a lot of free publicity as a result. (The company also ran television ads promoting its early start on the shopping holiday.)
Early leaks are a relatively new strategy says Ellen Davis, vice president at the National Retail Federation, and even now, retailers still want to control buzz about their discounts as much as possible. "They don't want their Black Friday deals to get out too early because then you tip your hand to the competition. If you're offering $9 crockpots, then your competition might offer them for $8," she says.
Sometimes the leaks are unauthorized. "Retailers found that the circulars were leaked by a vendor who might have been printing them, or someone inside the company who didn't have permission to do so," says Davis.
Early previews that aren't endorsed can be frustrating for retailers, she says, because they might change their mind about sales as the date gets closer, or their promotions might vary by location. That's one reason many stores keep their biggest discounts under wraps until the day of the sale.
And not every store wants their sales leaked early. Wal-Mart, for example, is notorious for keeping its deals private and even issuing warnings to any websites that post information.
[For more money-saving tips, visit the U.S. News Alpha Consumer blog.]
"One of the tactical things they can do to get more attention for their own sales is to let it out really quickly, or pull a Wal-Mart and try to keep it as under wraps as they can until a few days before," says Brad Wilson, publisher of Brad's Deals. He says he usually gets early information about sales from companies themselves. Sometimes, employees from the companies pretend to be average consumers who have discovered sale information in the hopes of promoting it on his site, he says.
Along with the early leaks, many companies are also offering earlier-than-usual sales themselves. In addition to Sears, Amazon, Target, and Toys 'R Us are getting a head start on Black Friday by discounting their sale items weeks ahead of Thanksgiving.
For shoppers, though, part of the secret to mastering Black Friday sales is to ignore a lot of the early hype. The National Retail Federation's Davis says consumers shouldn't put too much trust into third-party websites that sometimes post incorrect information. The best source is retailers' websites, she says.
All Black Friday information will be released by Monday or Tuesday of Thanksgiving week, says Dan de Grandpre, founder of DealNews.com. "There are a lot of rumors ahead of time, but they're not always accurate," he says. If you see details of a leaked ad online, it might be an early draft of sales that could change.
[Visit the U.S. News Personal Finance site for more insight and money management tips.]
PriceGrabber.com's president Laura Conrad recommends following the Twitter feeds of your favorite retailers so you can be first to receive their deal announcements. The Shopping Blog website also runs a popular Black Friday Twitter feed (@BlackFriday).
To nab the best deals, you'll probably need to get out of bed early and shop in-person, says Wilson of Brad's Deals. "Ninety-five percent of Black Friday items are available online, but some of the best limited-quantity deals are in-store only," he says.

Numerous reports during the last 60 years have reported a strong association between idiopathic nephrotic syndrome and atopic disorders. Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome can be precipitated by allergic reactions and has been associated with both aeroallergens (pollens, mold, and dust) and food allergies. Patients with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome also may show increased serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels. A review of the literature suggests that although some idiopathic nephrotic syndrome cases may be associated with allergies, evidence that it is a type of allergic disorder or can be induced by a specific allergen is weak. Rather, it is likely that the proteinuria and increased IgE levels in patients with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome are caused by increased levels of interleukin 13 observed in these patients. Recent studies suggest that interleukin 13, a known stimulator of IgE response, may mediate proteinuria in patients with minimal change disease because of its ability to directly induce CD80 expression on the podocyte.

DELRAY BEACH -- Louis Kichton gets choked up and teary eyed whenever he has to present a folded American flag to a child during a funeral service.
"It's the most difficult thing you have to do," said Kichton, commander of Veterans Foreign War Post 4141.
The folded flag, which recognizes one who has died during or after service to the community or country, is a symbol that will be permanent at Veterans' Park if a new civic group raises $20,000 to buy and erect a bronze statue.
The statue of a boy with the flag, called "A Field of Blue," could be placed in the children's park at the Intracoastal Waterway on July 4 to honor community service.
Kichton is one of the civic leaders who has been asked to raise money for the Community Memorial Fund.
"It's quite appropriate as far as the veterans are concerned," Kichton said. "It's certainly a tribute to those who have served for their country, state or city."
Although the bronze statue of the boy will be the first from the group, other tributes could range from art work and plaques throughout the city.
Frances Bourque, who is also helping to raise money, said the acquisition of the art will signify a new era in the city.
"We want to begin an initiative to place good pieces of sculptures in public places," said Bourque, who is chairman of the board of directors of Old School Square. "We want the community to rally around this cause. It's to honor the nurses, teachers, heroes, the young people who've saved lives on the beach, all those who have contributed by saving a life, or have lost a life in the line of duty."
The statue is the work of George Lundeen, a renowned sculptor. Placed on a pedestal, the 4-foot boy will stand about 8 feet high, Bourque said.
Besides buying art work, the group may opt to give out service awards, give scholarships to children of family members who have died in service or to support a family who has lost a family member in service.
The group also hopes the statue will encourage teachers to bring children to Veterans' Park.
"It's a unique way to give and to teach what service and commitment are all about," Bourque said of the project.
The fund has been set up to buy art and plaques that will be placed throughout the city to honor community service. Old School Square Cultural Arts Center is the non-profit collector.
-- TO DONATE: Checks should be made payable to the Community Memorial Fund at Old School Square. They can be dropped off at the following locations downtown during the Delray Affair this weekend:
-- Old School Square Cornell Museum of Art and History.
-- City of Delray Beach booth, fire and police department.
-- City of Delray Beach recycling booth.
-- Chamber of Commerce booth.
After the Delray Affair, contributions can be mailed to Old School Square at 51 N. Swinton Ave., Delray Beach, 33444.
-- CALL: Old School Square at 243-7922 or the Chamber of Commerce at 278-0424.

Your child’s oral health starts at home. Our Beaverton Family Dentistry program has received glowing reviews from parents. When it is time for your child’s first dental visit, we are ready with pediatric dental care options, such as sealants and educate you on how to maintain oral health.
We also offer a children’s playroom. Our Golden Treasure Chest is very popular where a quick dig will uncover a young pirate’s fortune – a toy rewards them for their visit to Smiles Northwest.
Our team takes your oral and overall health very seriously, which is why we offer tooth-colored fillings to overcome cavities. Boasting aesthetic and health benefits that metal fillings cannot, tooth-colored fillings are more durable, meaning they are less likely to crack from repeated chewing, preventing potentially harmful bacteria from entering your body. Plus, they do not expand like their metal predecessors, which can cause the filled tooth to crack or even break.
By matching the filling color to your tooth, our dentists can provide you with tooth-colored fillings that not only treat your cavity but work to enhance the appearance of your treated tooth.
Got a missing tooth? Dr. Alan Chen places dental implants with skill and an artistic eye for details. No other option restores both beauty and functionality to your smile the way a dental implant will.
Dr. Chen will surgically place a small titanium post into the jawbone, which acts as a stabilizing "root." The implant’s presence stimulates continued bone and tissue growth, something that normally discontinues and causes rapid bone and gum deterioration following the loss of a tooth.
You want to improve the look of your smile but does the thought of spending months, or even years, in braces sound too much of a hassle? With AcceleDent® Aura, you can speed up your tooth movement by 50%! Combining this pain-free, easy appliance with Invisalign®, you'll achieve your straight smile in no time.
AcceleDent Aura is a light, comfortable, and hands-free appliance that is used 20 minutes per day to complement orthodontics. With patented SoftPulse® Technology, AcceleDent® Aura's micropulses allow your teeth to move more quickly. The best part of AcceleDent® Aura is that it's safe as demonstrated in U.S. clinical trials.
Our Beaverton family dentistry services are not restricted to oral health. We care about your families overall health too. Many patients suffer from headaches and jaw pain, which could be a sign of temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
Our neuromuscular dental expert relaxes the position of the muscles in your face and neck. Aside from relieving your pain, this advanced neuromuscular technique greatly increases the longevity of restorations and natural dentition.
With advanced education, proven experience, and a developed understanding of the complex relationship between the muscles and nerves, our dentist has successfully treated countless TMJ sufferers like you.
We understand many people just like you have concerns or anxieties related to dental treatment. Our dentists have enjoyed specialist training using conscious sedation that makes you feel as though you are in and out of a very comfortable sleep, and yet always conscious with no anxiety.
During your treatment, you will be given a mild sedative that is administered in pill form and will be instructed to take this shortly before your scheduled visit. Once at Smiles Northwest, our sedation dentists closely monitor you and your sedation and will provide you with any needed additional sedation before and during the treatment process.
We are now proud to offer NuCalm® as a natural form of sedation dentistry.
Sleep apnea can have a negative impact on your life. In fact, all across the United States lack of sleep is being blamed on anything from poor work performance to automobile accidents.

You know her well as Natalie in the ‘70s hit series Facts of Life (1979 to 1988). Her role as the sarcastic student, Natalie, was essential for the show’s success. However, it didn’t credit her well for the performance that she had given, as she was typecast in the industry. She struggled to get new roles.
Despite the typecast she continued to pursue acting and balanced her time for school. She managed to earn a degree in Cultural Anthropology. She also founded weSPARK, a cancer support society. She won an Emmy for playing the voice of Velma in the Scooby-Doo animated series.

An angry mob at Namatapa in Bangwe has killed a man who they believed to be a thief.
Police are yet to identify the deceased but say he is 26 years-old.
Assistant spokesperson for Limbe police station Widson Nhlane said the deceased broke into the house of a certain person in the township and stole a Galaxy phone worth K56,000.
“The suspect went into the house of a certain man in the township and stole a Galaxy phone and when the owner discovered this he shouted for help,” said Nhlane.
He further said that people came out and managed to catch the thief. They then severely beat him until he died.
Nhlane added that the body of the deceased is at Queen Elizabeth Central hospital for post-mortem. He said people whose relative is missing can go to the hospital and check if the deceased is their missing family member.
Police has since appealed to the general public not to take the law into their hands and say if anyone is found, they will face the law. The law enforcers have also urged Malawians to always take suspects to police stations in order for the officers to drag the suspects to court for thorough investigations.

Enzymatic hydrolysis at high solids loading has the potential to reduce both capital and operational expenditures. The role of critical factors, that is, inhibitors, enzyme—lignin binding, and viscosity, was investigated during the course of hydrolysis in the batch and fed-batch approaches. This study suggests a sustainable approach for improved hydrolysis at high solids loadings by fine-tuning a simple process. Global energy demand is increasing with an average growth rate of 1. Bioethanol from lignocellulosic biomass LB plays a critical role in meeting this energy demand as a renewable and sustainable source of energy Agrawal et al. One of the primary challenges in producing second-generation biofuels is the recalcitrant nature of the LB, chiefly imposed by the complex lignin-carbohydrate linkages LCCs. The LCCs enhance the integrity and rigidity of the plant cell wall, yielding a complex macromolecular assembly and rendering the recalcitrance for biorefining Li et al.

A description is given of the solid-state fermentation of wheat bran by Trichoderma reesei QM at constant temperature and relative humidity. A C balance was set up between CO 2 production, based on CPR measurements, CO 2 production as expected on the basis of substrate composition changes and substrate elemental composition in combination with dry-matter weight loss. Glucosamine was used as the measure of biomass. The results indicate that the glucosamine content of fungi in liquid culture cannot be used to estimate the biomass content in solid-state fermentations. Using glucosamine, correlations between fungal growth and respiration kinetics could only partly be described with the linear-growth model of Pirt. The activities of xylanase and protease are linearly related to the glucosamine level. No clear correlations between glucosamine and carboxylmethylcellulose-hydrolysing enzyme activity and amylase activity were found.
The production of fungal metabolites and conidia at an industrial scale requires an adequate yield at relatively low cost. To this end, many factors are examined and the design of the bioreactor to be used for the selected product takes a predominant place in the analysis. One approach to addressing the issue is to integrate the scaling-up procedure according to the biological characteristics of the microorganism considered, i. Indeed, the scaling-up procedure is considered as one of the major bottlenecks in fermentation technology, mainly due to the near impossibility of reproducing the ideal conditions obtained in small reactors designed for research purposes when transposing them to a much larger production scale. The present review seeks to make the point regarding the bioreactor design and its implementation for cultivation of filamentous fungi and the production of fungal metabolites according to different developmental stages of fungi of industrial interest. Solid-state semi-solid , submerged, fermentation and biofilm reactors are analyzed. The different bioreactor designs used for these three processes are also described at the technological level.
On average, mg of cellulase protein is formed per gram of metabolized carbon source, the enzyme has a specific activity of about 0·5 to 1·0 filter paper units per mg protein. On an industrial scale, Trichoderma cellulases are produced by solid state as well as by submersed fermentation.

Metrics details. On-site cellulase production using locally available lignocellulosic biomass LCB is essential for cost-effective production of 2 nd -generation biofuels. Cellulolytic enzymes cellulases and hemicellulases must be produced in fed-batch mode in order to obtain high productivity and yield. To date, the impact of the sugar composition of LCB hydrolysates on cellulolytic enzyme secretion has not been thoroughly investigated in industrial conditions. The effect of sugar mixtures glucose, xylose, inducer on the secretion of cellulolytic enzymes by a glucose-derepressed and cellulase-hyperproducing mutant strain of Trichoderma reesei strain CL was studied using a small-scale protocol representative of the industrial conditions.

Mental illness is one of the leading causes of disability and can significantly impact an individual’s ability to engage in daily life activities. April is OT Month, and occupational therapy is an important but lesser-known component of mental health treatment. Occupational therapists help people develop life skills to live more independently after illness or injury.
What is occupational therapy?
Injury, illness, and big life changes can make it hard to do the things that bring us meaning and purpose in life. Occupational therapists help patients recover from lifechanging illness and disability by restoring their ability to perform occupations, or the everyday activities that we do to occupy time (like cooking, driving, organizing, or working). By focusing on developing these skills, OTs enable people to function more independently and adapt to their changing life circumstances.
Occupational therapy at Sheppard Pratt
At Sheppard Pratt – the birthplace of OT – occupational therapy is an integral part of providing compassionate and comprehensive care to the people we serve. From inpatient and residential units to community services, you’ll find occupational therapists in many different units, helping people navigate the barriers that their mental illnesses may present. They complete functional assessments of a person’s needs and provide interventions to help them understand how mental illness is impacting their participation in meaningful activities. By rebuilding certain skills through occupational therapy, the person is better able to live life to the fullest potential.
Occupational therapy can help anyone no matter their age or illness. At The Retreat at Sheppard Pratt, for example, an occupational therapist may assist an older person who is struggling with mental illness while adjusting to life after retirement. Leaving the workforce can be a big and unexpected change, because work is often the primary source of purpose in someone’s life. An occupational therapist can help that person find other ways to build meaning and connection in their day-to-day lives, like volunteering. If a person is struggling to thrive in college due to depression and anxiety, an occupational therapist can help them determine the ways they can succeed academically and create social connections while taking care of their mental health.
Occupational therapy uses a strength-based approach to aid in a person’s recovery, which means identifying and building upon someone’s abilities rather than their limitations and disabilities.
The history of occupational therapy
Occupational therapy was established at Sheppard Pratt in 1921 by Dr. William Rush Dunton Jr., a psychiatrist and early supporter of moral treatment of people with mental illness.
Inspired by the use of purposeful activities and events to restore individuals’ levels of functioning, Dr. Dunton was a proponent of the idea that “occupation is a basic human need, and that occupation is therapeutic.” Individuals at Sheppard Pratt were encouraged to participate in everyday activities, such as arts and crafts, sports, and more as part of mental health treatment. He went on to jointly establish the American Occupational Therapy Association.
When mental illness or injury gets in the way of performing everyday tasks, occupational therapists are there to help. In assessing, identifying, and addressing the barriers to a healthy and independent life, occupational therapists change lives every day.
