The coronavirus pandemic and quarantine introduced in many countries interfered with Apple’s plans for 2020. At first, the company canceled the presentation of the second-generation iPhone SE scheduled for March and released the long-awaited smartphone only in mid-April and without any noise, and now, it looks like it has postponed the start of production of iPhone 12. At least, sources cited by the authoritative publication speak about this The Wall Street Journal.
A message is detected that restarts iPhone
5G iPad Pro release postponed to 2021
According to The wall Street Journal, because of the coronavirus, Apple decided to postpone the launch of mass production of the iPhone 12 for one month, and therefore, the official announcement will be delayed by about the same amount. Sources say that instead of the previously expected mid-September, Apple will show new flagships closer to the end of October.
Note that Apple has high hopes for the flagship series of iPhone 12. These will be the first smartphones of the company with support for fifth-generation cellular networks. In addition to supporting 5G and the new Apple A14 processor, the new iPhones are waiting for a redesign in the style of the iPad Pro 2020 with the same sharp edges and the appearance of a LiDAR scanner. iPhone 12 will be released in four models, and not three, as the previous generation. It will be two 6.1-inch models and one model with 5.4- and 6.7-inch screens.

another brilliant peice
other than the parts where the vocals became twice as loud as the guitar it was another fantastic peice.
I like it, but... It didn't sound right at the beginning when the voices got louder, but the guitar stayed the same volume...
I know. This one wasn't particularly a great piece. It was one of those where I listened back to it an hour later and slapped myself in the head saying "Damn, man, you should have better finetuned those vocal levels."
Thanks for the review, though.
Please contact me if you would like to use this in a project. We can discuss the details.

“I’m not yet allowed to say what it’s based on,” he says “but religious delusion and schizophrenia play significant roles.” Can’t wait!
Read the full interview here, and stay tuned for more information on this exciting new project.
We’re very excited to report that the Jerome Composers Commissioning Program has just awarded a grant to Darcy James Argue to write a new large-scale work for us for next season. It’s to be called The Sleep Room and will be about the very creepy, CIA-funded MK-ULTRA experiments that took place at McGill University in the 1960s. We’re planning to premiere it in early 2011, and are very excited about the whole project!
For those who don’t know Darcy’s work, definitely check out his recent, much-lauded record on New Amsterdam.

Our amazing percussionist Yuri Yamashita–“who sings bossa nova on the side”–recently took part in the Bang on a Can-organized Asphalt Orchestra, which got rave reviews all around. Yuri received specific mention in the NYTimes review, New York Magazine, and in Playbill.
A month ago, our drummer/composer/director David T. Little was profiled in the New Jersey Star Ledger. Also taking part in the interview was co-director/rockstar Eileen Mack. Give it a read.
Last but not least, about a month and a half ago or so, violinist/singer/composer Caleb Burhans, was awarded a huge and awesome grant from the Annenberg Foundation. More on that here.

DocRoy- I have worked union and non-union jobs. The safer environment by far was at the non-union plant.
Union workers (aka liberals) remove personal responsibility from the risk/reward equation. Their attitude is that management is fully responsible for their safety, and they can sue or otherwise punish a business if they are injured. Many don't even try to be safe.

My husband owned our home before we were married and it is in his name. We lived together for three years in the home and then married. When he cheated and decided to leave, he claims his lawyer advised him to move out and continue paying the mortgage until we divorce and then I would be made to leave and have nothing because it was his. I want to know if this is correct? I gave up my home to move in with him and I have furnished the entire home. Everything that is there belongs to me, except the things my current boyfriend has purchased for me. Can he take any of that?
The home is his separate property as it was purchased before the date of marriage. However, if marital funds were used to pay the mortgage, the home does have a marital component and you can argue that you are entitled to a portion of the equity. Any furniture or personal property that was purchased during the marriage is going to be considered marital property and subject to division; he won’t simply get to just keep everything.

Dates are a nutritious and well-balanced snack choice for expectant mothers. They contain natural fructose, which doesn't cause rapid spikes in blood sugar levels. Various types of dates are available, each offering valuable nutritional benefits to support a healthy pregnancy.
During pregnancy, it's perfectly safe to enjoy dates in moderation. Furthermore, the nutritional profile of dates indicates that these dried fruits offer a favorable calorie content, with just a handful providing essential nutrients for both the mother and the baby. They also make for an ideal snack choice due to their sugar content, which breaks down efficiently, supplying the body with a balanced energy boost without causing significant spikes in blood sugar levels.
Are Dates Safe During Pregnancy?
Dates are a crucial component of a healthy diet, packed with tons of nutrients that play a pivotal role in supporting overall well-being, especially during pregnancy.
Among the essential nutrients found in dates are:
Potassium: This electrolyte helps maintain a balanced equilibrium of water and salt in your body, contributing to healthy bodily functions.
Vitamin K: A vital nutrient, especially for newborns who may lack it at birth. Consuming dates during pregnancy can provide your baby with an early supply of vitamin K before they take their first breath.
Fatty Acids: Dates contain healthy forms of fatty acids that work wonders in sustaining energy levels and ensuring consistent vitality throughout the day, helping you combat fatigue.
Calcium: During pregnancy, your body transfers calcium to support your growing baby's needs. It's crucial to consume calcium-rich foods since your body doesn't naturally produce this mineral. Adequate calcium intake is essential for maintaining strong teeth and bones, benefiting both you and your baby's health.
BENEFITS OF EATING DATES DURING PREGNANCY
1. Dates provide energy
Dates are an excellent source of energy, as they provide your body with the necessary sugars without adding excessive calories. This energy boost is particularly beneficial during pregnancy when your energy needs are higher than usual, making dates a valuable addition to your diet for meeting those increased energy requirements.
2. It keeps constipation away
Dates can be particularly beneficial in preventing and managing constipation during pregnancy. Pregnant women often experience constipation due to hormonal changes and increased pressure on the digestive tract. Dates are a natural source of dietary fiber, which can help soften stools, promote regular bowel movements, and alleviate constipation discomfort. Including dates as part of a balanced diet during pregnancy can contribute to digestive health and overall well-being.
3.Bones and teeth in the baby
Magnesium is another essential mineral as it helps in the formation of teeth and bone health maintenance. It also helps in blood sugar management and regulates your blood pressure levels. Dates help in preventing magnesium deficiency in pregnancy, which may otherwise increase the risk of chronic hypertension, preeclampsia, placental dysfunction, and premature labor.
4. Contains iron
Dates contain a moderate amount of iron and phytochemicals, making them potentially beneficial in preventing anemia during pregnancy. Iron is essential for maintaining healthy hemoglobin levels in the body, ensuring proper oxygen transport. Adequate iron intake also provides immune system support for both you and your developing baby, contributing to overall health during pregnancy.
5. Promotes healthier skin
Dates are rich in vitamins, including vitamin C and D. Both of these vitamins are important in maintaining a healthy skin. There are several outbreaks on the skin during pregnancy. And it is not very effective to take chemical treatments to get rid of those breakouts. Dates are a natural and healthy means to keep skin problems at bay. Including a few dates in your diet can keep your skin healthy and hydrated.
How To Eat Dates During Pregnancy?
Dates can be eaten in many ways.
Smoothie: Dates with yogurt can be a great smoothie combo.
Date Energy Balls: Mix dates with nuts, seeds, and other healthy ingredients to make homemade energy balls. These can be a convenient and portable snack during pregnancy.
Date Desserts: Use dates to sweeten desserts naturally. For instance, you can make date-based bars, cakes, or cookies.
Date Salad: Chop dates and add them to your salads for a sweet and nutritious twist.
Date Syrup: Simmer dates with water and then strain to make a date syrup that can be drizzled over pancakes, waffles, or yogurt.
Date Snacks: Carry a small container of dates with you for a quick and healthy on-the-go snack.
Pie crust: Puree dates and nuts in a blender and mix with pie crust dough.
Stuffed Dates: Stuffing dates with nuts like almonds or walnuts can add a delightful crunch and extra nutrients. This combination offers a balance of sweetness and protein.
When To Eat Dates During Pregnancy?
Eating Dates in the First Trimester
During the first trimester, constipation becomes an alarming issue. Consume dates as dessert or in the morning to ensure the necessary fiber required for healthy bowel movement. But if you have diabetic symptoms are group B strep infection, reduce the number of dates consumed daily.
Eating Dates in the Second Trimester
If your blood sugar levels are on the rise during the second trimester, avoid consuming dates, as it will increase the risk of gestational diabetes.
If that is not the case, you may include a few dates, once every 2 days.
Eating Dates in the Third Trimester
During your third trimester, make sure you consume dates as it will help in reducing the lobar time and increases your tolerance to pain.
It is recommended to consume up to 6 dates from the 36th week from the estimated date of delivery in order to ensure less discomfort.
In conclusion, dates can be a valuable addition to a pregnant woman's diet. They offer numerous benefits, including a rich supply of essential nutrients like fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Consuming dates during pregnancy can help prevent and alleviate issues such as constipation, anemia, and skin problems.
Additionally, dates may play a role in potentially reducing labor duration and promoting cervical ripening, though more research is needed to confirm these effects. However, it's crucial to enjoy dates in moderation as part of a balanced diet, as they are calorie-dense.

You say you hate decompressed storytelling and long for the days of done-in-one stories? Well, Christos Gage has written the comic for you as not only is it self-contained, it takes what could have been two separate issues, and makes them two chapters in this single issue. It's quite the feat as Gage demonstrates just how much you can pack into 22 pages of a superhero comic book.
This issue shows how Norman Osborn's newly taken over Initiative handles Blastaar's conquering of 42, the Negative Zone prison Tony Stark created during "Civil War," first, by spotlighting a lesser-known, somewhat pathetic z-grade supervillain who's joined up, and, then, by showing the actual battle. The strong lead-up to the actual fight for 42 gives it some added weight when it finally happens, because we're emotionally invested in these villains and their fight.
The first half of the issue, titled "Even the Losers," is narrated by Johnny Guitar, a lame villain who fought Dazzler with his partner, Dr. Sax, "back when she looked good." His story may be one you're familiar with, but Gage tells it through his voice very well. There's the right mix of pathos and self-pity in Johnny's story of wanting to be a rock star, but getting stuck as some crappy villain that went nowhere now given a chance to finally make something out of himself under Norman Osborn's Initiative.
Johnny is a sympathetic character despite his bad choices. His friendship with Dr. Sax is very endearing. Gage finds something interesting to say in these somewhat obscure Dazzler villains and he's our window into the mission to reclaim 42.
The second half focuses on that mission and doesn't really match up to its lead-in. Cage includes numerous funny moments and some solid strategies on the parts of the villains, but after Johnny's story, it feels a little empty and deflating.
Rafa Sandoval's art is full of crisp, clean lines. He has a real knack for creating shots that work with Gage's writing. Since a lot of the issue is Johnny's story, Sandoval provides illustrations that have to cover a lot of ground and time periods. His opening splash page featuring the duo fighting Dazzler is full of energy and kicks things off right. Sometimes, though, his panels get a little too cramped and what's going on becomes unclear. This is especially problematic during the fight for 42, which is chaotic in a confusing way. He's a very dynamic artist, though, and does some good work in the issue.
"Avengers: The Initiative" #27 is a fantastic done-in-one issue that compresses a two-part story into a single issue without feeling rushed. If you haven't tried this book yet, this issue is completely new reader friendly and definitely worth paying three bucks for.

Grains have been a highly controversial and sometimes demonized food over the past decade or so with low carb and “paleo” diets coming into fashion. Despite all the negative claims against grains there stands a grain that provides us with a host of benefits that will make you rethink the moniker “all grains are bad”.
PROTEINS AND AMINO ACIDS
Wild Rice has a great Amino acid profile scoring at 84 whereas white rice comes in at 71. Cooked Wild Rice is 14% protein compared to white rice at 8%. The extra protein and amino acids in Wild Rice help to promote a feeling of fullness with less calories consumed. Because of the amino acid profile in Wild Rice it has a high protein efficiency rate. What this means is that the body can easily and efficiently convert the proteins in wild rice into proteins useable in the human body. This makes Wild Rice and optimal food for recovery from strenuous exercise.
Wild Rice can often be tolerated by individuals who are allergic to other grains. Wheat has been shown to have up to 27 different allergenic compounds the most well known being gluten. Wild Rice contains no gluten and has not been shown to contain higher levels of other allergens. Grain allergy is often the result of hybridization and protein mutations that occur during this process. For example modern wheat has not only been hybridized but it is the result of accidental gamma radiation experiments done to seeds before planting them. This has likely caused in part the massive influx of wheat allergy in the west. Real Wild Rice has of course never been hybridized and is a truly heirloom species. Another factor to consider is that chemicals used in industrial agriculture such as glyphosate have also been implicated in the recent wave of food allergies. Our Wild Rice beds are Certified Organic and on protected land far away from any form of industrial agriculture.
GUT HEALTH AND MICRO-BIOME BALANCING
This is an area where Wild Rice is most valuable - rebuilding and maintaining health of the intestinal tract which as we know leads to optimal health of the whole organism. As noted previously Wild Rice contains a balanced profile of amino acids and a great protein efficiency ratio. What does this do? It has an anti inflammatory effect on the body and directly contributes to the repair and growth of new tissues. This is important because many foods in modern diets are contributing to inflammation and deterioration rather than rebuilding. There are also phyto chemical compounds that have been shown to contribute to tissue repair and further contribute to the anti inflammatory effects of Wild Rice. Wild Rice is also rich in what is known as resistant starch which is a type of carbohydrate that survives the digestive process of our stomach acid and is converted to a short chain fatty acid known as Butyrate. Butyrate has a host of benefits ranging from increased energy levels to anti inflammatory effects throughout the whole body. Resistant starch serves as a prebiotic that feeds and balances the human microbiome.

The Tempest: Allegorical to the Bible Essay examples -- English Litera
The Tempest Allegorical to the BibleThe Tempest is not a pure fantasy tale, but a purposeful allegory. The characters in the contribute are all representative of characters found in the bible. The first, and perhaps approximately persuasive, arguement would be Prospero symbolizing God. Prospero is seen to be a representative of God for several(prenominal) reasons. First, he is obviously in control of the actions and has an omni manful quality. This has been demonstrated by several scenes throughout the play. Consider the power that Prospero possesses, as shown in the epilogue at the closing of the play I have bedimmed The mooontide sun, called forwards the mutinous winds, And twixt the green sea and the azured vault Set roaring war. . . . The strong-based nous Have I made shake, and by the spurs plucked up The waste and cedar. Graves, at my command, Have waked their sleepers, oped and let them forth By my so potent art (V. i. 41-4, 46-50). These are obviously superhuman wagers. In fact, Prospero claims quite emphatically that he possesses the power of mighty Zeus himself, for not only does he say that he can make lightning, but he declares that he has actually used the gods own holleringbolt (Still 6) To the dread rattling thunder Have I given fire, and rifted Joves stout oak With his own bolt. Having already established that Prospero is the possessor of superhuman power, why would Shakespeare include this information provided solely for alligorical purposes (Still 7)? This information serves no purpose except to establish Prospero as a god. Prospero is also seen in the play performing several roles that Christianity traditionally assign to God that of the omnipotent Judge and the Savior of Man. Prospero is revealed to be the Omnipotent Judge through a speech given by Ariel (Still 7) . . . . I and my fellows Are ministers of Fate. . . . The powers, delaying, not forgetting, have Incensed the seas and shores, yea, all the creatures Against your peace. . . and do declaim by me Lingering perdition, worse than any death Can be at one, shall step by step attend You and your ways whose wraths to safeguard you from, Which here, in the most desolate isle, else falls Upon your heads, is nothing, but hearts sorrow, And a buy the farm life ensuing. Shakespeare tells us, through Ariel, that Prospero can pass sentance of lingering perdition, but whose compassion can be ga... ...he exile from the garden of Eden story in the Bible. Both involve two characters who are tempted with great power and knowlege by an evil being--Satan. Both are successfully tempted by the evil foce both(prenominal) eventually suffer for their choices. The Tempest, by William Shakespeare, is a very interest and entertaining story when viewed by its face value. However, when one analyzes the characters, settings, and situations, one realizes the deeper importation intended by Shakespeare in composing the drama. Through his creation of the island microcosm, which is govern by Prospero and undermined by Caliban, the Bard creates a masterful work which glorifies a merciful God, who will forgive sins through repentance. In The Tempest, Shakespeare creates a story that is valuable for more than just entertainment purposes--he creates a work of art. Works Cited Still, Colin.

BlackLivesMatter Lawyer Wins Race As Philadelphia Prosecutor
An anti-Trump backlash at the polls this election season has seen a Black Lives Matter lawyer elected as the district attorney of Philadelphia, Philadelphia Magazine reported. Larry Krasner, a longtime civil rights lawyer and thorn in the side of Philly’s City Hall, cruised to victory over Beth Grossman, the Republican candidate.
Though a relatively minor election, the DA race saw big money injected into it by major donors. George Soros, the billionaire philanthropist, donated $14.5 million to a Super PAC that supported Krasner during the Democratic primary.
Krasner won that primary handily, making him a shoo-in for the general election in the overwhelmingly Democratic city.
“I always did this because I think trials should always be fair, and innocent people should not be convicted, and individuals’ civil rights should be preserved,” Krasner, the son of a Jewish father and evangelical minister mother, has said. “I don’t see a big distinction between doing that as a prosecutor and doing it as a defense attorney.”

Maryland senators, Hogan reach deal on 'Road Kill Bill'
ANNAPOLIS — Call it repeal and replace, or call it a compromise, but both sides were calling it victory Wednesday after Senate leaders hammered out an agreement on a transportation-scoring law Gov. Larry Hogan has dubbed the "Road Kill Bill."
Hogan had offered legislation to repeal a measure approved last year that would assign a scoring system to state-funded transportation projects costing more than $5 million.
Proponents said the system would provide more transparency in how projects are ranked for funding.
The problem for local officials was that once all the scoring — in areas such as safety and congestion— was completed, the final score would be multiplied by a population-based factor to determine a project's final ranking.
In other words, all the money would likely go to projects in the heavily populated metropolitan areas of the state.
And that meant priority projects in more rural counties — such as the widening of Interstate 81 and improvements to the Interstate 70-Md. 65 interchange in Washington County — would be in jeopardy.
Last summer, the state Department of Transportation did a preliminary ranking based on scoring criteria that it said proved as much.
The Democratic leadership in the Senate had asked the administration to work with them for a compromise.
But Hogan's Chief Legislative Officer Christopher B. Shank initially said compromise "starts with the word 'repeal.'"
After Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller, D-Prince George's/Charles/Calvert, suggested amendments to Hogan's repeal bill, Sen. Andrew Serafini, R-Washington, offered some final, mostly technical, amendments Wednesday that the administration had requested.
Miller's 13 pages of amendments postpone implementation of the scoring system for two years and six months, while a legislative workgroup compares how projects funded during that time would measure up.
The amendments also:
• Emphasize reduction of congestion.
• Require the scores to be published on the department's website.
• Include a clause stressing the bill would not prevent local transportation priorities from being included in the state's Consolidated Transportation program.
The seven-member workgroup would include the majority and minority leaders of both the House and Senate, or their designees, a representative of the Senate Budget and Taxation Committee, a member of the House Appropriations Committee and the secretary of transportation.
In addition to Maryland system, that group also would study the scoring systems used in North Carolina and Virginia to see how they could be applied in Maryland.
The systems in those two states divide funding among regions, so that rural sections aren't competing directly with urban areas for the same pot of money.
The workgroup also would be looking at regional priority processes, and how they could work in Maryland, according to the amendments.
The panel is to present a report by Jan. 1, 2019. At that point, legislators can determine whether to make changes to the original law.
"Was the bill, as it was last year, repealed? Technically, yes it was," said Serafini, who was involved in the negotiations between Miller and Hogan's office.
"We're agreeing to a pause to say: 'Let's look at different states (that have scoring systems), let's score these things, let's understand how (Interstate) 81 is so low it wouldn't have been funded, let's understand how Baltimore and Prince George's were losing their top priorities, and say 'that's probably not the best model,'" he said.
The Senate still must take a final vote on the measure, which is expected soon. The House would then have to approve the bill.
"They are a very different body," Serafini said. "The accommodating attitude, I would hope, would carry over because it's what we need in our community."

"Without reserve give yourself over with total confidence to the mercy of God, whose personification, by the will of God is the Immaculata. Trust yourself in nothing; be careful, and confide in her without limit, and at every moment or occasion of sin turn to her as a child to its mother and you will never fall."

“Live your truth,” “Follow your heart”, “God wants you to be happy”…the list goes on of popular cultural messages that sound so good…but do not line up with Scripture. As harmless as these memes and messages may seem, they have great potential to lead our kids down a very dangerous path. These cultural messages are not only all over on social media and the world of entertainment, but many of them have found their way into Christian communities.
Alisa Childers, once known for her role in the popular Christian band, ZOEgirl, now spends her time writing and speaking on the topic of apologetics. In her recent book, Live Your Truth and Other Lies, Alisa uncovers the most common lies our kids are being raised with. Many of these lies are candy-coated with just enough truth that we often don’t recognize them. In today’s interview, Alisa tackles some of the most common lies our kids are being confronted with and offers us some helpful perspectives and talking points so that we might teach our kids the Truth.
I can’t think of a more important tool for our kids than the ability to compare cultural messages to God’s Word. Alisa is so helpful on this topic, no matter what age your children, I think you’ll get a lot out of this interview! Find show notes and links to Alisa’s books in show notes:

On our first day of the Pre-Summit 2016 Adventure our group departed Anchorage on the Alaska Railroad for a beautiful three hours journey to Talkeetna. After lunch we arrived at the local airport for an incredible flight to the Mt.Denali basecamp. Until recently known as Mt.McKinley , it is tallest mountain in North America, at 20,310 feet. 6249 Meters.
K2 Aviation flew our group in 2 planes.
At Talkeetna the temperature was a relatively mild 53 degrees. At the Basecamp it was 20 degrees ( -7 )C ) with 3 feet ( 1m) of fresh powder .It is always winter here.
TotalAdventure – On Top Of The World.
Extremely difficult ice walls – some of which have never been climbed. K2 Pilots are highly skilled – most have been flying the route for over 20 years. Weather is dangerous at all times of the year and quick decisions have to be made.
TotalAdventure may return to Denali next week with more footage.

Snowflake is pretty fast and can handle updates like all other SQL databases. But the cost of performing updates depends on the number of rewritten micro-partitions. How do I avoid updates and still have data updated?
The main key in the solution is that each row in the table points at its previous version. The table also contains updated and deleted timestamps.
You cannot just query all the data from such table. You need to check if the row you are getting is the newest row. You will do it by checking if any previous pointer does not point at the row.
The performance of such data structure depends on the dynamics of your data and how often you update them. If you have 1 billion rows table and perform 300k inserts and 10k updates once a day, the previous query generates the following query plan.

Donnie Walsh will not return as president of the New York Knicks, who must find someone else to continue the building job he started.
The Knicks announced in a statement Friday that Walsh and Madison Square Garden chairman James Dolan mutually agreed that Walsh will not return when his contract expires at the end of June, a somewhat surprising departure and major loss for a team coming off its best season in a decade.
The 70-year-old Walsh said he decided Thursday that he wasn't up to Dolan's request that he stay on for at least two years.
"I wasn't sure that I wanted to go and devote myself multiyear. On the other hand, I understand why he would want that," Walsh said on a conference call.
On a course with such a fine line between birdies and bogeys, Steve Stricker settled for perfection Friday in the Memorial with a hole-in-one that put him in control at Muirfield Village.
Stricker used a 6-iron on the 188-yard eighth hole - his 17th hole of the second round - then birdied his final hole for a 5-under 67. Instead of being part of a five-way tie for the lead, he wound up three shots clear going into the weekend.
"It's a shock when you see that go in, obviously, but in a good way," Stricker said. "A great way to finish the round."
Stricker said the eighth hole has given him fits over the year, which is just as well. So has this tournament. In 11 previous appearances at the tournament Jack Nicklaus created, Stricker never has finished in the top 10.
He is hoping to change that, and shots like his ace certainly help.
Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne is ready to go racing.
The 20-year-old Bayne said Friday he feels fine and his goal tonight in the STP 300, a Nationwide series event at Chicagoland Speedway, is simple: to win the race.
Bayne hasn't competed since April 23 after fighting a mysterious illness. And even though he spent time at the Mayo Clinic, doctors weren't sure of the causes of the inflammatory condition. Symptoms included impaired vision and initially some numbness in his arm.
Bayne told reporters last week that he went through a series of MRI exams, a spinal tap and at one point had 16 needles in him.
The "Road to Omaha" leads to a new address this year.
The College World Series is moving to a $131 million downtown stadium that's about three miles up the street from the old ballpark where the championship evolved from a niche event supported by locals to one of the nation's great summer sports traditions.
The 24,505-seat TD Ameritrade Park is neither a minor league nor a major league stadium. Some have called it a hybrid of the two.
"I call it a College World Series stadium, built just for that," said the NCAA's Dennis Poppe, who has run the CWS for 25 years.
The 64-team NCAA tournament began Friday with regionals, and next week's super regionals will pare the field to the eight teams that will christen TD Ameritrade Park beginning June 18.
SEOUL, South Korea
Asia's oldest professional football league is wrestling with one of the continent's most serious match-fixing scandals, with fans in South Korea stunned by revelations of bribery and corruption in the K-league.
Already, six players belonging to K-League clubs have been arrested, along with two gambling brokers, and charged with receiving money in exchange for trying to fix the results of their games. A former K-league star linked to the scandal was found dead last week in an apparent suicide.
Compiled from wire reports


One of the most common performance issues in electric motors is overheating. Experts suggest that an 18°F (10°C) degree increase in motor winding temperature can directly affect the insulation of the component and reduce its lifespan by 50%.
Do electric motors produce heat?
Electric motors generate motion, not heat.
How do you check if a motor is too hot to touch?
If motor is so constructed that its surface is about 20 C cooler than the winding, the surface temperature would be: 100 – 20 = 80 C (176 F)—i.e., much too hot to touch safely!
Should a fan motor get hot?
All AC ceiling fan motors (the most common ceiling fan motor) operate at temperatures that can be hot to touch. … “Warm to the touch” is a normal operating condition and there is no safety issue nor does the heat shorten the life of our motors.
What is the reason for motor heating?
High or low voltage supply
Power supply may be insufficient due to amp draw. In order to overcome load or inertia at a stand-still, the motor’s running current will be much too high under load. Incorrect voltage supply will make the motor work harder and could cause it to overheat.
Why are electric motors so fast?
Electric vehicles generate much more torque than gas vehicles, which is important because torque is what drives the vehicle forward. … The power goes straight to the wheels for instant acceleration, making EVs quicker on the start.
What happens when an electric motor overheats?
An overheated electric motor will bring your equipment to a screeching halt. And while excessive heat may be the problem confronting you, knowing how and why your motor overheated is imperative. Until you get to the root of the problem, your motor will continue to reach peak temperatures, failing again and again.
How hot is too hot for electric motor?
The surface temperature of a continuously (and correctly) operating general purpose industrial electric motor will easily be 80 C (176 F) and perhaps as high as 100 C (212 F). You can’t keep your hand on a surface that hot long enough to discern differences, and if you try, you could get a nasty burn.
Will a bad capacitor cause a motor to overheat?
Too little capacitance also results in reduced torque, and can also cause the motor to overheat from forcing to work at too high of a slip (roughly speaking, AC induction motor efficiency is reduced from 100% by the slip percentage) and, of course, if the capacitance is really too low then the motor won’t even start, …27 мая 2017 г.
How do I keep my electric motor cool?
Another method to remove heat from electric motors is by providing forced air cooling. This is commonly done by providing an electric fan to blow air over the motor. Force air cooling can reduce the amount of heat transferred into the machine structure and allow the motor to be operated at a higher load point.
Can a fan start a fire?
— If you’re using a fan to stay cool in these hot temps, be warned, they can be a fire hazard! A Consumer Product Safety Commission report says electrical fans were associated with 20,000 structure fires in an 8-year period. … Chief Willis says problems arise when fan motors get over heated. And that can start a fire.
How do I fix my electric fan from overheating?
How do I fix my electric fan from overheating?
- Remove front grill and remove the blades.
- Remove the screws carefully.
- Remove the motor cover.
- Check if the motor has accumulated dust. The dust can make your fan drag endlessly and thus get overheated.
- Brush out the dust. Take care not to damage any connections and cables while you are at it.
Can an electric fan overheat?
Well, yes. Apart from the bushings and the motor, clogged dirt on the blades can also have a serious effect and make your fan overheat.
How do you test if an electric motor is burnt out?
With a multimeter set to low ohms (usually 200), test between each winding terminal and the metal casing of the motor. If there is any reading on any of these then the motor is bad, do not use it. You may find that when it runs ungrounded that the casing becomes live at up to supply voltage.
How do you fix a burnt electric motor?
If an electric motor operates at too high a voltage, excess current flowing through the windings can cause them to become hot and burn out. While it is normally not practical to repair small, direct current (DC) motors that have burned out, other motors can be repaired by rewinding.
How long can an electric motor run continuously?
You should anticipate, given proper attendance, that the motor can run continuously for the life of its brushes, which should be in the range of six months to a year. Presuming that the motor is too small to have its brushes changed by a trained electrician while running.


Drone thermal inspection education license – Industrial as well as Commercial Usages of Drones and also Thermal Imaging
By utilizing a drone thermal assessment of solar thermal power farms by drone it can be a really expense reliable method for testing production effectiveness. The conventional thermal inspection of a solar photovoltaic panel by a ground team is still legitimate, because they are doing essentially the very same task as ground groups do. The primary difference is that drone thermal assessment can not be done from the exact same environment as the actual photovoltaic panel is placed. A ground team can only inspect the panel from certain angles, which might limit the efficiency of their report. A drone thermal examination can do its evaluation from any angle and from any instructions, so it can quickly discover cracks and crevices that the people can not find and see.
Because it needs a lot of hard work to set up the sensors and conduct the survey, the standard thermal examination is relatively costly. This means that you will require to invest a great deal of cash for a professional to get it done, but it will also take up a lot of your valuable time. By using a drone thermal assessment it can be more economical due to the fact that it is self-operated, does not need any extra equipment and can be finished in a brief space of time. It can also cost less due to the fact that the drone can fly out over the whole solar field rather than inspecting each specific photovoltaic cell. This allows them to cover a greater area with less energy utilized, meaning the cost per kilowatt-hour is lower and for that reason more economically practical.
The most common uses for drone thermal imaging are to discover cracks and other kinds of failures in equipment and also heat loss which is an extremely important consider the cost of producing power. It is likewise used to locate and map fault areas and separated areas where the flow of energy can end up being out of balance. The heat loss can take place due to manufacturing faults, lack of cooling and even from faulty devices.
Thermal imaging has actually now been adapted so that it can work along with remote control units which are currently being utilized by some companies. This means that drone thermal electronic cameras can not only discover leaks but can also keep track of operations in making facilities. The operator can also move the drones around inside of a building and spot any areas which may be leaking.
Another use for aerial drone thermal examinations is for commercial applications. This can be particularly useful in the food industry. If there is an issue with the transfer of heat in between equipment or even in equipment getting too hot, this might cause serious problems that could cause equipment failure and ultimately item failure. An example of where drone thermal evaluations could be useful remains in the printing and food preparation markets. If you find that something is going wrong with a piece of equipment since of a getting too hot component or other error, it can frequently be fixed very easily by just replacing it with a brand-new one. If you don’t have this details prior to hand then it can be harmful to replace a malfunctioning part which might lead to your item being unsuited for sale and the loss of thousands of dollars.
As commercial and commercial usages there is another really important factor why you need to think about using drone thermal assessment systems. Having thermal imaging on your solar panels can assist you to determine precisely where any issue locations are so that you can make sure you correct them before they cause major issues.

Recipe: Easy Ramen Noodles with Cheese
Ramen Noodle Soup has always been a quick and easy go-to throughout my college career. It seemed like the easiest and cheapest way to eat when I was pressed for time and on a very tight budget. It wasn't long, though, until I had eaten Ramen Noodle Soup for dinner so often that I began to loathe it. I began to play around with different varieties and ways of cooking them, and this was the best that I came up with:
You Will Need
1 package of your favorite flavored ramen noodles
2. A little bit of shredded cheddar cheese (I use about 1/4 cup)
Sometimes, I only add half the contents of the seasoning packet, substituting the other half with a bit of garlic powder and pepper.
In a small or medium sized pot, boil the noodles for 8 minutes, or until they are soft. Then, drain most of the water from the noodles, leaving a small amount behind.
Next, dump all the noodles and remaining water in a bowl. Stir in packet of seasoning that came in the package of noodles. Season to your liking. Then, mix in shredded cheese, allowing it to melt into the mixture. Add more or less if you'd like.
Now, enjoy! But be careful, it's probably still very hot!
I find this recipe much more enjoyable than the plain Ramen Noodle Soup. So far, my taste buds have failed to tire of my Cheesy Ramen Noodles!
