A perusal of expenditure details, furnished by candidates who contested the Assembly elections, before the Election Department, points out that none of the candidates has spent any where near the prescribed limit of Rs. 8 lakh. In fact, only five candidates have spent 50 per cent of the amount permitted by the Election Commission.
Former Home Minister E. Valsaraj, who won the Mahe seat, tops the list of five candidates, who spent more than Rs. 4 lakh.
While Mr. Valsaraj (Congress) incurred an expenditure of Rs. 5.3 lakh, G. Nehru alias Kuppusamy (AINRC), who represents Orleanpet constituency, incurred an expenditure of Rs. 5.12 lakh.
Minister M. Chandrakasu, who represents Nedungadu (AINRC), spent Rs. 4.49 lakh, while his party colleague P.R Siva, who won the Thirunallar seat, incurred an expenditure of Rs. 4.44 lakh.
Another AIRNC member V. Sabapathy alias Kothandaraman representing Ariankuppam constituency spent Rs. 4.41 lakh.
Chief Minister N. Rangasamy (AINRC) spent a sum of Rs 3.3 lakh in Kadirgamam, and Rs. 2.77 lakh in his second constituency, Indira Nagar. The poll expenditure details of other Ministers in Mr. Rangasamy's Cabinet are as follows:
P. Rajavelou, who won the Embalam constituency, spent Rs. 2.9 lakh and N.G. Pannirselvam representing Ozhukarai, spent Rs. 2.29 lakh.
The poll expenditure of other political heavyweights in the Union Territory is as follows:
Former Chief Minister V. Vathilingam, representing Kamaraj Nagar constituency, spent a sum of Rs. 2.07 lakh; former Ministers K. Lakshminarayanan, representing Raj Bhavan constituency, incurred an expenditure of Rs. 2.02 lakh; Malladi Krishna Rao, representing Yanam, spent a sum of Rs. 1.58 lakh.
Former Ministers, who unsuccessfully contested this time, M. Kandasamy and M.O.H.F. Shahjahan, incurred an expenditure of Rs. 2.73 lakh and Rs. 2.89 lakh respectively.
Two members of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam, A. Anbalagan, representing Uppalam, and Om Sakthi Segar, representing Nellithope, spent a sum of Rs. 2.28 and Rs. 2.52 lakh. The least amount of Rs. 1.55 lakh was incurred by Nanda T. Saravanan, who won the Muthialpet constituency. The department had posted the list of candidates and expenditure details on the government website, www.pon.nic.in.
Officials in the Election Department told The Hindu that the poll expenditure submitted by the candidates would be cross checked with the details collected by the expenditure monitoring committee of the Elections Department.
Returning officers would submit a report and it would be sent to the Election Commission.
Meanwhile, the Department would send notices to 13 candidates who have not submitted expenditure details.

It has been just 20 months since “The Professor”, as Romano Prodi is known in Italy, came to power for a second time, heading a 13-party coalition after a general election. The unifying factor? A common desire to overturn the right-wing government of Silvio Berlusconi. He won the gamble, but at what price?
The following day, the newspapers tempered any victory celebrations, already talking about the difficulties to come. With a majority of barely 30 seats in the lower house, and just two seats in the senate, the winning margin was tiny.
And the anti-Berlusconi feeling which linked the partners – proved insufficient to drive through reforms. Straightaway, voting became mired in in-fighting, and back-biting, and each attempt to bring about change got bogged down.
Political commentators point the finger at the electoral system itself as being a major contributor to the government’s woes. Parties only have to cross a very low threshhold of votes to claim their place in Parliament.
That proved the stumbling block for the coalition last February, when the lack of a majority in the senate and lack of consensus on foreign policy led to Prodi’s resignation – only to be persuaded to stay by the President.
Left wingers were angry about Italy’s involvement in Afghanistan, and also opposed the enlargement of an American military base in northern Italy. The next stage was still fraught with fragility.
The united party of the left, which Prodi wanted to counter Berlusconi’s Forza Italia, was born, and at the helm, the relatively youthful Mayor of Rome, Walter Veltroni. On the international stage, Prodi restored Italy’s credibility, especially in Europe.
He cut the public deficit in half, and cleaned up the country’s finances.
And he began a programme of modernising and liberalising services, business and certain professions like the law. They might be essential reforms for Italians, but they’re painful nonetheless.

What Happened To the Steam Box?
Back in March, when Joshua's Exclusive scoop about the Valve hardware box ran, I was, to put it lightly, thrilled out of my gourd.
The possibility is great. An "affordable" piece of hardware that runs any game I can get on Steam, bridging the gap between the glorious PC gaming master race and dirty console gaming peasants.
The original article didn't give much away as far as Joshua's sources, or a time table, but he then followed up with a tweet that read:
All I can say is that I've seen even more than I can reveal in that post for now.
That was 5 months ago.
GDC has come and gone without a console announcement, and I haven't seen any real followup on the idea of a Steam Box from either The Verge or the rest of the gadget news community.
We've seen a few developments that could suggest Valve is moving in this direction. Gabe called Windows 8 "a catastrophe" and decided to launch Steam on Linux. And they've finally announced a beta of the long-awaited "Big Picture" mode for Steam.
But that's still a far cry from a Steam Box being announced at GDC. So what's going on? Was Josh wrong? Did Valve's plans change? Or is Valve just operating on Valve Time?

Excite brings the F-35 display, and image fusion technology to cockpits of future helicopters, such as Future Attack & Reconnaissance Aircraft (FARA) and Future Vertical Lift (FVL), both families are expected to appear in the US and European market in the next decade.
Malaysia and the Philippines are considering the acquisition of new helicopters for maritime surveillance and anti-submarine warfare. Following its win in South Korea, AgustaWestland's AW-159 is a strong contender on both programs.
Airbus Helicopters (formerly Eurocopter) is displaying its newest newest military helicopter at Eurosatory, the twin-engine EC645 T2, which has been ordered by Germany for Special Forces Command (Kommando Spezialkräfte). Airbus is scheduled to deliver the first helicopters under this order next year
The Russian Rosvertol company completed production of the first newly modernized Mi-28UB 'Night Hunter' attack helicopter toward delivery to the Russian military. Unlike the standard attack helicopter, the UB has dual controls in the front and back seats, to enable better training of flight personnel.
Unveiled yesterday at Eurosatory 2016 by Israel based Bird Aerosystems, SPREOS combines a radar based verification sensor and an active laser effector to form a directional, infrared countermeasure (DIRCM) system. Mounted on the same optical path, the laser 'fires׳ right through the center of the radar panel, enabling significant cost saving in maintaining separate aiming devices.
Israel is seeking US approval for the supply of eight SH-60F Sea-Hawk Helicopters from US Navy surplus to support the Israeli Navy security operations in the Mediterranean Sea. The helicopters will initially operate with the four new Meko-100 Class Magen corvettes Israel will receive from Germany by 2020.
Russian Helicopters' MIL division has begun flight testing of a experimental version of a Mi-24K helicopter that could increase the helicopter's cruising speed by up to 30 percent. The blue painted helicopter testbed made its maiden flight from MIL's test center in Tomilino, on 23 December 2015.
The UK has mothballed a quarter of its AgustaWestland-Boeing WAH-64 Apache Longbow AH.1 helicopters following the end of combat operations in Afghanistan. According to IHS Jane's, 16 of the Army's 66 Apaches were placed into storage, leaving a force of 50 helicopters. These helicopters are likely to provide replacement parts, maintaining the operational fleet until the next upgrading of the British Apache fleet.
Twenty-eight Israeli companies will present a wide range of advanced technologies – many of them operational – including sophisticated sensors and systems protecting borders and sensitive facilities, robotic and automotive logistics, electro-optics for artillery and infantry, airborne satellite communications, fire control solutions, tactical medical equipment, and more. See Defense-Update video coverage of Defexpo.
Sikorsky Aircraft yesterday unveiled the first of two S-97 Raider helicopter prototypes, signaling the start of activities in the program’s test flight phase and a major step toward demonstrating the new – and first – armed reconnaissance rotorcraft featuring X2 Technology designed for military missions.
The Airbus Group has submitted the C295W light transport plane to the Indian AIr Force, as part of its teaming agreement with Tata Advanced Systems. The group also proposes different helicopters to be manufactured by Mahindra Defence.
Boeing will soon deliver the first new build MH-47G configuration to the US Special Operations Command. The modernized Chinook incorporates a number of production improvements to include the digital advanced flight control system, more robust, improved monolithic machined-frames, and improved air transportability

Nell - Well, the first thing we've picked out is a really interesting story about quadruplex DNA which sounds like this big new, exciting thing, but in actual fact, not quite as new and exciting as some of the reports made out.
Kat - It was like, "Oh my God! It's the new DNA helix. Everything we know is wrong." It's not.
Nell - DNA 2.0.
Kat - People have known about this for quite a long time and in fact, this isn't actually the first time they found quadruplex DNA in humans because they did that in 2011, the same group. But what is quadruplex DNA?
Nell - So, this is a type of DNA, so that instead of being two halves curled into a nice little spiral - how everyone sees it in cool little 'sciency' bits of films and on TV.
Kat - The double helix.
Nell - Exactly. It's curved around. It's almost like a circle, so it's got four sides to it. So, it's kind of a square-ish circle sort of formation and it's to do with what that particular section of DNA is actually made up of. So, if it has a lot of guanine in it, it could be that that's what makes it curl up into this particular shape.
Kat - So, it's the physical properties of the chemicals that are making up that stretch of DNA and it turns out, there's a lot of these guanine, or G-rich, sequences in telomeres at the ends of our chromosomes. And funnily enough, that's obviously where they found them and they've done a really nice technique. This is a research from Shankar Balasubramanian and Giulia Biffi. Tell me a bit about what they actually did to spy on this DNA in cells.
Nell - So, you mentioned that we have already seen evidence that human cells can have this kind of quadruplex DNA and we already knew that some other forms of life - so small organisms, single-celled organisms - might have it. But now, we know it's in human cells too. We did already have evidence of this, but what the new research has done is actually looked at when the quadruplex DNA is produced. So, which stage of the cell cycle, when it appears, when it disappears, and they've been able to tag it with a fluorescent marker so they can essentially watch it appearing, disappearing, moving around.
Kat - And when is it mostly turning up?
Nell - So, it's in a phase called S-phase. 'S' stands for synthesis and essentially, what's happening then is all the DNA in a cell is being copied. And this is quite interesting because in terms of relevance to cancer, it's a stage when a lot of cancer drugs will act on the cell and they'll stop various things from happening in the cell at that point in time.
Kat - So, that's also quite a good opportunity to intervene as well if you wanted to maybe get drugs that stuck to the quadruplex DNA or interfered with it in some way. That would be pretty good.
Nell - Exactly, so the idea here is that if it turns out that quadruplex DNA is playing a role in driving cancer cells, making them grow, making them divide, it could be a chance for people to develop drugs that perhaps latch onto the quadruplex DNA, block it from doing whatever it's up to in the cell, and that could be a new way to tackle cancer cells.
Kat - Or even if it's not driving them, if it's just there, if it's maybe some kind of marker that happens to be there more in cancer cells - we don't really know. It's very interesting. That came out in Nature Chemistry this week from the team at the University of Cambridge.

Trump Admits That He’s Responsible – “You have to take the children away…”by Jake Johnson, staff writer Common Dreams June 19, 2018
After weeks of evasions and outright lies aimed at avoiding responsibility for the torture he has inflicted upon immigrant families, President Donald Trump finally admitted in an off-the-rails speech on Tuesday that the thousands of family separations that have taken place on his watch are a direct consequence of his administration’s decision to prosecute parents who cross the U.S.-Mexico border illegally.
The president also attacked the press for publishing images from his own government showing children in cages and threatened to cut off funding for Central American nations.
As Brianna Rennix of Current Affairs has noted, family separations are hardly an unintended result of the Trump administration’s so-called “zero-tolerance” policy, as the president suggested when he claimed in his speech that he doesn’t “want children taken away from parents.”
“When you prosecute the parents for coming in illegally—which should happen—you have to take the children away,” Trump said before the National Federation of Independent Business. “Now you don’t have to prosecute them, but then you’re not prosecuting them for coming in illegally. That’s not good.”
“The Trump administration’s decision to prosecute parents for illegal entry was taken in order to create an excuse to separate mothers from children” so they could keep the mothers detained, Rennix observed on Sunday in a detailed analysis of the White House’s immigration policies.
In addition to conceding that his administration’s policy shift is responsible for the thousands of family separations that have taken place over the past six weeks alone, Trump also threatened to cut off “funding” for Central American nations that “send” migrants to the United States and slammed the press for daring to publish photos and videos of children detained in cages.
“They are helping these smugglers and these traffickers like nobody would believe,” Trump said of the media, which has circulated photos released by his own government.
As a finale to his defense of cruelly separating children from their parents, Trump danced to one side of the stage and literally hugged an American flag:


text: So, I was talking to my friend and he had an old Polaroid EE100 to give away! There was a little battery corrosion which I fixed up, and everything is working properly, but I have a few questions... First off, there are the pinholes... How do I fix them? Should I even try to fix them, or try to enjoy the result? If I try with the pinholes unsealed, would I be able to remove the pack and load it into my Colorpack II in the darkroom, and be able to shoot the rest of the pack unmolested if I didn't like the light leak effect? Also, I noticed that the switch shoots iso 75, 3000, and past 3000 it goes to ER. What is ER? It seems to just remove the 3000 speed pinhole and shoot back at the normal aperture. Is that all it does, for low lighting? I bought a bunch of instant film, so this time next week I should have 'roids. Any advice is greatly apppreciated. (PS, covering up the Electric eye, with it turned all the way to lighten, I can do 1:47 second long exposures, and this model has a tripod release and a cable! Woohoo!) **Edit** It's an EE100 special! Cool!

What are greek coins called
Greek settlers established colonies in western Asia Minor before 1000 BC. These colonists were called Ionians, and tradition says that they fled to Asia Minor from the mainland of Greece to escape the invading Dorians. Athens claimed to be the mother city of all the Ionian colonists, but modern scholars believe that the Ionians were actually a mixed group (mainly from Attica and Boeotia) and that after migrating they were further mixed by intermarriage with native groups, such as the Carians. Nevertheless, they spoke the same distinctive form of Greek that was spoken in Attica and Euboea, and their culture was always distinguished from that of the Dorians and Aeolians. There came to be 12 major cities. Miletus, Myus, Priene, Samos, Ephesus, Colophon, Lebedos, Teos, Erythrae, Khios, Clazomenae and Phocaea. A religious league (which reached its full power in the 8th cent. B.C.) was formed, with its center at the temple of Poseidon near Mycale. Smyrna, originally an Aeolian colony, later joined the league. The fertility of the region and its excellent harbors brought prosperity to the cities. Traders and colonists traveled the Mediterranean as far west as Spain and up to the shores of the Black Sea.
In the 7th cent. B.C. the Ionian cities were invaded by the Cimmerians, but they survived. In the same century Gyges, king of Lydia, invaded, but it was not until the time of Kroisos (Croesus) that their subjugation was completed. When Kroisos was conquered (before 546 B.C.) by Cyrus the Great of Persia, the Greek cities came under Persian rule. The Ionians are mentioned in the catalogue of subject people in the Behistun inscription of the Persian king Darios I the Great. This confirms what we know from the Histories of the Greek researcher Herodotos of Halikarnassos: the Ionians had been subjected by the Persian king Cyrus the Great in the middle of the sixth century. Another confirmation is the precense of Ionian stonemasons at Pasargadae, the capital of Persia. According to Herodotos, the Ionian Greeks were grouped together in one tax district with the Pamphylians, Lykians, Magnesians, Aeolians, Milesians and Karians. The Persian rule was not very exacting, but it was despotic in nature, and at the beginning of the 5th cent. BC the cities rose in revolt against Darios I.
The Ionian Revolt . Around BC 500, Artaphrenes, ruler of the western capital of Persia (Sardis) met with other leaders of Ionia and made them agree not to attack each other. In BC 499, Aristagoras, the ruler of the Ionian city Miletos, yearned to control the city of Naxos. He tried to gain help from surrounding cities but failed. Fearing punishment from Darios I (Persian Emperor from BC 521-486) or Artaphrenes, for breaking the agreement, he incited a rebellion. Aristagoras encouraged the Ionians to remove their leaders. In response, many cities in the area rebelled and ousted their Persian rulers. Knowing that it would not be long until Darios retaliated, Aristagoras traveled to Sparta and appealed to King Kleomenes for aid. When the Spartan leader learned of the distance his army would travel to reinforce the Ionians, he declined the request for aid. Aristagoras, now desperate for support, went to Athens for help. The Athenians, fearing an inevitable attack by the Persians, decided to support Aristagoras and sent ships. The Ionian fleet, bolstered by Athenian and Eretrian ships, sailed to Ephesos in BC 498. The ships were moored at the port of Coressus and the soldiers followed the river Kayster to Sardis, where the Allied Greek force marched into the city meeting little resistance. As they marched deeper, they finally engaged Artaphrenes (ruler of Sardis) who was defending the citadel. Not able to capture the citadel, the Ionians set the city ablaze and retreated to Ephesos. Persians troops in the area met the Greeks at Ephesos and massacred most of them. The remaining Ionians scattered to the surrounding cities.
Despite the great setback of losing so many men, Aristagoras continued his fight against Persia. He encouraged more revolts in Western Asia Minor, Thrace and Cyprus. Aristagoras sent part of his fleet to aid the Cyprians, but the Persians thoroughly defeated the Cyprian army. Darios I decided
to attack Karia, a region with close ties to Miletos. When the Karians learned of this plan, they ambushed the Persian army at night and annihilated it, killing four Persian generals in the battle. Although their deaths were a great loss, Persia continued to reclaim cities. Seeing his rebellion collapse and fearing for his life, Aristagoras fled to Mycrinus. He gave command of Miletos over to Pythagoras, a mathematician. Aristagoras, frustrated with his failed rebellion, attacked the Thracians, but in time, he and his army were cut off and destroyed. After Aristagoras left Miletos, the Persian fleet sailed to Lade and destroyed the Greek fleet defending the city. Darios and his army captured Miletos in BC 494. After the city-state fell, the revolts in the Persian Empire crumbled, due to a lack of leadership. The revolt was easily put down, and the Persians set out to punish the allies (Athens and Eretria) of the cities.
The Persian Wars resulted. In 480, Darios' son and successor Xerxes tried to conquer the Greek mainland and invaded Thessaly. The Ionian army that guarded the Tempe ravine, evacuated the road before the enemy arrived. Not much later, Thessaly surrendered. The Greek navy was defeated at Artemisium and an elite army consisting of Spartans was annihilated at Thermopylae after a three days' fight. Boeotia and Delphi were added to the Achaemenid empire, and in September, Athens fell. There was one setback, however: the Persian navy was attacked and suffered heavily. In spite of the losses at Salamis, Xerxes could truthfully state in the Daiva inscription that, by the favor of Ahuramazda. he ruled " all the Yaunâ (Ionians), those who dwell on this side of the sea and those who dwell across the sea ." Whatever the reason, the Persian forces in Europe were not strong enough and the Persian general Mardonius was defeated in the summer of 479 (battle of Plataea). A Greek naval expedition to the east liberated the Ionian towns in Asia Minor.
Although there was to be more fighting in the fifth century, the spheres of influence were clear. Greek pirates sometimes looted ports in the Achaemenid empire and the Athenians on several occasions attacked Cyprus and Egypt, but these attacks never really changed the balance. The status quo was recognized by the Athenians and the Persian king Artaxerxes I Makrocheir (465-424) in a formal peace treaty (449/448, Peace of Callias). The details of this treaty, however, are obscure. During the Peloponnesian war (431-404), the Athenians and Spartans were at each others throats. In 421, the Athenians seemed to have won the war, and they felt strong enough to interfere in the Persian zone of influence again. When a certain Amorges, son of Pissuthnes, revolted, he received Athenian support (414). The Persian king Darios II Nothus retaliated by supporting Sparta. In the treaty that his satrap Tissaphernes concluded with the Spartans, the latter allowed the Persians to reoccupy Ionia. However, when Sparta had won the war, its king Agesilaos invaded the Achaemenid empire (396-394). He was recalled when the Persian king Artaxerxes II Mnemon started to support Athens and gave it a new navy. When Athens became too powerful, the Persians started to pay the Spartans again. Finally, in 387, the Persian king dictated peace conditions to all the Greeks. T hose 'who dwelt on this side of the sea' remained Persian subjects, and 'those who dwelt across the sea ' were to be controlled by Sparta. This treaty regulated the relations between the Persians and Greeks for half a century.
During various Greek uprisings, most of the Ionian cities gained a brief freedom, but their fate continued to be subject to treaties with the Persians and changed as Persian fortunes waxed and waned. Alexander the Great easily took (ca. 335 BC) all the Ionian cities in his power, and the Diadochi quarreled over them for years to come. The cities continued to be rich and important through the time of the Roman empire (where they became part of the Roman province of Asia) and later in the Byzantine empire. It was only after the Turkish conquest in the 15th cent. AD that their culture was destroyed.Source: asiaminorcoins.com

Hi there - I got into astronomy rather late; around 1999. From there on, I have been trying to learn as much and as fast as possible.
Why doesn't anyone do more on this subject? We waste electricity illuminating the skies; and ruin astronomy for the generations to come. Why do people still purchase the "bulb" type spots for their gardens, and why do people put projectors on the ground, pointing it to trees and statues? Don't they realise that what leaks around the tree and statues ends up polluting our dark skies?

Startup Weekend, the weekend-long, hands-on experience where entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs find out if startup ideas are viable, will take place in eight Canadian cities this month.
In fact, in just hours, two of those eight events will begin, as Startup Weekends in both Calgary and St. Johns will begin around 5 PM.
Beginning with open mic pitches on Friday, attendees bring their best ideas and inspire others to join their team. Over Saturday and Sunday teams focus on customer development, validating their ideas, practicing “LEAN Startup Methodologies” and building a minimal viable product. On Sunday evening teams demo their prototypes and receive valuable feedback from a panel of experts.
November is proving to be a particularly receptive month for the global, grassroots initiative, 100 percent put on through the work of volunteers.
Here’s a list of the remaining six Startup Weekend
November 15- Moncton, NB, Prince George, BC, Sherbrooke, QC, Vancouver, BC
November 22- Quebec City, QC
November 29- Regina, SK
Headquarted in Seattle, Washington, 1068 Startup Weekend events have now been completed in 478 cities worldwide, involving over 100,000 entrepreneurs. According to the organization, over 8,190 startups have been created as a result. Over 36% of Startup Weekend startups are still going strong after 3 months. Roughly 80% of participants plan on continuing working with their team or startup after the weekend.
This weekend’s events in Calgary is pretty cool for one particular reason: it’s organized by an all-women team. Organizer Kylie Toh, whether by decision or just by coincidence, has four speakers in Tara Kelly (SPLICE Software), Alice Reimer (Evoco), Shauna Causey (Decide.com) and Anette Ceraficki (Confab). On top of that, all five judges are female and all 12 coaches are as well. I can only imagine that such vocal women-in-tech advocates like Hootsuite’s Ryan Holmes and MaRS’s Aron Solomon would be pleased.
Meanwhile in St. John’s tonight, organizers Jason Jones, Roger Power, Chris Gardner, Sarah Murphy and Ryan Murphy will kick off a Maritimes edition of Startup Weekend.

Whether we like it or not we live in an ever-increasing diverse society. Some of us welcome this diversity with open arms, seeing in it the opportunities and excitement of being different, while others may be somewhat more resistant to it. This blog shall focus more on the latter and what can help us appreciate diversity better.
First and foremost, we need to acknowledge that we are prejudiced. Throughout our life, and through various experiences, we learned stereotyped beliefs that have formed the way we perceive and understand others who are different from us. Perhaps we assimilated such beliefs before we learnt how to think critically. Acknowledging that we have prejudices rather than denying them or feeling guilty about them is the first step to moving towards being more open to diversity.
We then need to challenge such prejudicial thoughts. Stereotypes and general statements about groups of people tend to be untrue. Learn about these groups you tend to feel prejudiced about – read and expose yourself to these groups, speak and listen to them and allow yourself to understand their points of view and beliefs.
Most of the time, our prejudice stems from fear. Anything that we are not used to, that is different from how we always knew it to be or from what we believe to be true, makes us feel unsafe and scared. Therefore, before embracing diversity, we need to develop a strong sense of security. When we feel secure about who we are and our beliefs, then we do not fear difference. On the contrary, we are more likely to welcome anybody with diverse views and ways of life since we will see this as complimenting and enriching what we know and are used to.
Once we stand firmly in who we are and what we believe in, then we are safe to know that one truth does not necessarily exclude someone else’s truth, no matter how different from each other they may be. Being able to accept diverse truths, which may actually be contradictory to each other, increases our tolerance for and acceptance of others. This will turn, facilitate being together in harmony, in spite of or because of, being so different.
When we feel secure in ourselves we do not feel the need to defend who we are or what we believe in, neither do we feel the need to blame others for having a different point of view or choosing to lead a different lifestyle. On the contrary, when we feel safe in ourselves, we are in a better position to be open to understand why someone else is different from us. Such openness may actually surprise us, especially if it leads us to an understanding that we are in fact not as different as we thought we might be. When we really allow ourselves to by-pass our differences and connect on a human level, regardless of age, sex, race, religion, etc., we will realise that we have more in common than we dare to admit. Try it!

STORY UPDATED: check for updates below.
Was a German chemist murdered for exposing the truth about graphene hydroxide in COVID-19 vaccines? No, that's not true: There is no evidence Dr. Andreas Noack died from unnatural causes. A spokesperson for the Landespolizeidirektion Kärnten, the state police headquarters in the Austrian state of Carinthia, confirmed Noack's death in a December 7, 2021, phone call to Lead Stories.
Details about the cause of death will not be released due to data protection laws, but the police told Lead Stories that Noack died on the way to the hospital in Wolfsberg, Carinthia, on November 26, 2021, after an ambulance had been called to his residence due to a medical emergency. A doctor ruled that Noack's death was due to natural causes.
The office of the public prosecution in Carinthia, the Staatsanwaltschaft Klagenfurt, had also closed a preliminary investigation as of December 7, 2021, after not finding any indication that a crime had occurred. The only source for the claim that Noack was murdered were two videos that his life partner uploaded to their shared channel on the messenger app Telegram on November 27, 2021, and November 29, 2021. However, these videos contain contradictory information on the manner and time of death.
The claim that Noack was murdered appeared in the title of a video posted to Bitchute on November 28, 2021, titled "MURDER! Just hours after publishing the secret of the Vax the Dr is DEAD" (archived here).
Users on social media only saw this title, description and thumbnail:
Noack became known to social media users worldwide in November 2020, when a video of one of his livestreams being interrupted by a police raid went viral. At the time, rumors circulated that Noack had been arrested for speaking out against government measures to fight the COVID pandemic in Germany.
Lead Stories debunked the arrest claim at the time when police clarified that Noack had not been the target of the raid. After rumors of Noack's murder went viral, some users showed the footage of the police raid from November 2020, falsely claiming it showed an attack by police shortly before Noack's murder by the authorities. There is no footage showing Noack's death, and rumors that he was physically attacked by police were later refuted by his partner.
Shortly after his alleged arrest in 2020, Noack went back to livestreaming content several hours a day, building an increasingly complex mythology about a divine plan to save the world that only he had access to, drawing on a wide range of sources from popular culture and philosophy, such as the Matrix movie trilogy, Pink Floyd songs and Sun Tzu's "The Art of War." Other examples of Noack's content can be seen in this English-language Zoom session and this interview with YouTuber and cult leader Eligio Lee Bishop, also known as Nature Boy.
Noack's livestreams stopped after January 7, 2021. His Telegram channels were taken over by his life partner, known as Anna. In the fall of 2021, Noack reappeared and started posting shorter videos to his Telegram channel. He had also relocated from Langenzenn in Bavaria, Germany, to Carinthia.
In a video posted to Noack's Telegram channel on November 23, 2021, reproduced in the above post with English subtitles, the chemist had claimed that the vaccines against COVID-19 contain graphene oxide, or, as he claims, graphene hydroxide, which allegedly act as nano-sized razorblades inside the body. Lead Stories has debunked claims that COVID vaccines contain graphene oxide before, or, as Noack claims here, graphene hydroxide.
In the video, Noack claimed to be an expert on graphene. He received a Ph.D. in chemistry from TU Darmstadt in 1995, and, according to a short biography on a 2007 flyer announcing a talk at a center for the promotion of nanotechnology, he later founded several companies. For a company called Blue Membranes GmbH, Noack filed several patents, mostly for membranes used to separate fluid mixtures. Up until 2012, he was on the board of another company called Vinna AG, which developed mineral supplements and nutraceuticals. There is no evidence that Noack has published research on graphene or nanotechnology.
Since the mid-2010s, Noack mostly appeared on alternative media outlets in Germany, promoting unconfirmed theories on nutrition and the use of mineral supplements. His last known professional activity was an organization called Ursprunc e.V. through which Noack promoted paid seminars on nutrition and mineral supplements. The website for the organization is no longer online as of December 9, 2021, but an archived version can be found here.
Noack's death was made public by his life partner Anna in a video posted to Telegram on November 27, 2021. A version with English subtitles can be seen here. Around the 1:40 mark, Anna claims that Noack "was heavily, heavily attacked." She goes on to say, "the assault was extremely sneaky and unexpected, and I am burdened with the terrible task to tell you, Andreas did not survive that." This phrasing led social media users to speculate that Noack had been directly and physically attacked, possibly by police. On November 29, 2021, however, Anna posted another video in German, clarifying that Noack was not attacked, but died from a heart attack at the hospital. She alleges that the heart attack was caused by microwaves, offering no proof for the claim.
Below is a partial translation of what Anna says in the video:
It was the day that the graphene hydroxide video was released ... everything was normal. We talked, we laughed, we told each other how much we love each other. And then he wanted to go downstairs to the kitchen to get a snack, and usually, he never stays there for longer than a minute. So, I went downstairs and said jokingly, 'Hey, what are you doing down here, are you eating all my snacks?' That's when he started swaying, and I thought he was kidding, he looked like he just acted as if he was drunk.
I went up to him and kissed him, and went like, 'hahaha,' but he did not stop. I told him it wasn't funny anymore and that he should stop. That's when the power went out. The whole thing happened 20 minutes ... I didn't check the time. And then he just collapsed in my arms. He started moaning, he was in extreme pain, his body started tensing up completely, he couldn't coordinate his movements, he suddenly could not talk anymore.
At first, I thought he had been poisoned. I gave him saline solution and he threw up what little he had eaten that day. I had eaten from it, too, so it could not be poisoning.
I just couldn't do anything, I was with Andreas and had to watch him writhe. I had never seen anything like this, it was torture, it looked like someone was torturing him from outside. This took about half an hour, maybe longer, it seemed like an eternity to me. He could not speak, it was like he was paralyzed, but I can't really describe it. I just held him and made sure he did not hit his head. Eventually, he calmed down, his body was just exhausted from the whole thing. He collected himself for a moment and could get up again, he was still slightly dizzy, went upstairs, he somehow pulled himself up the stairs, and then, yes, he slowly recovered, but was very exhausted and did not want to talk. And yes, I noticed that he was very exhausted. I don't know if he knew what was happening to him. He needed a lot of rest but said he felt fine and did not want anyone to know about this ...
The night of November 25th to the 26th, I noticed that he was very restless in his sleep, that he was also sweating a lot and had a fever. But I did not want to wake him up, he needed his rest. At one point, I can't really tell how much time had passed, anyway, at one point he started breathing really heavily and he was wheezing, and that's when I got really scared ... I started screaming, I screamed at him to get out of it, to come back to me, and then I had to cry because it was so terrible. I cried and he still tried to comfort me. I told him I was going to call an ambulance, I was busy making sure that he could breathe easily, I moved his body into different positions to make sure he was able to breathe, and he had more and more water in his lungs, he was wheezing and then he could not spit out this stuff, I even got it out of him with my hands.
The emergency service called me during that, and they told me to perform CPR on him, and that's what I did. I performed a heart massage and rescue breathing and just did what they told me, it felt like hours ... Then they were there, six people arrived and hooked him up to this automatic ... automatic machine and injected him with all kinds of stuff, adrenaline and stuff. They were wearing their masks the whole time, I told them, take off your masks, you can't even breathe. They were able to ... I kept asking if he was still alive ... they said, not right now, but they were in the process of resuscitating him, and then they had him back. In that moment, they were able to transport him and take him downstairs ... We then drove to Wolfsberg, but I could not see him anyway, because I could not do anything and they had to get him in a room with a ventilator and I was not allowed to enter that. Before they take him inside, I was allowed to see him, and I asked how things looked, and they said they were able to bring him back, and things actually looked good ... Then they brought him out, and I went up to him and put my head on his chest, he was intubated, and I told him how much I love him. Then they wheeled him inside, I had to wait outside, I wasn't even really aware of what was happening. Then the doctors came upstairs and put their heads together, that was right after, as soon as they had him inside, they came back out, and when they talked among themselves, I knew what was going on. They said his large cardiac valve had failed completely, he had a heart attack and died from it.
At this point, a voice from behind the camera asks: "Many people understood that people had come to his place and had attacked him. What you meant, however, was a microwave attack, that was the reason." Anna replies: "I don't know a lot about these things, how something like that works. But he always said they have this kind of technology."
Further evidence of Anna's account has not been released up to this point. It is worth noting, however, that her claims contradict both the official police statement, according to which Noack died on the way to the hospital. The video from November 29, 2021, shows a picture at the beginning, giving Noack's date of death as November 26, 2021. In the video itself, however, Anna's claims that Noack died the day the graphene hydroxide video went online, and the day an interview with a man named Harald Thiers took place. According to posts in the couple's Telegram channel, this would mean Noack died on the 23rd -- a post announcing the interview on that day can be found here, the first upload of the graphene hydroxide video on November 23 is linked here.

South Korea on Tuesday said North Korea will send a delegation to next month’s Winter Olympics in the South, a sign of improvement in the relationship between the two countries.
Chun Hae-sung, South Korea’s vice unification minister, said the promise to send the delegation was made during the rare talks at the border on Tuesday, the first such talks since 2015 December. The North’s delegation to the Winter Olympics is to include officials, athletes, cheerleaders and journalists.
Chun said Seoul suggested both Koreas could conduct a joint march during the Game’s openings and closing ceremonies, and to resume temporary reunions of families separated by war. The official also offered another round of talks to reduce tension in frontline areas.
It remains unclear how the North Korean officials will respond.

In the past month two European technology companies have developed robots that can successfully play table tennis. Each arm-like 'bot has sensors that allow the 'hand' to move paddle in sync with the bouncing ball.
Scientist Ulf Hoffman unveiled his robot, UHTTR-1, which took two years of design and is able to hit the ball as it comes toward it with a forehand and backhand.
The German company Kuka released another video of a similar robot that can be seen battling with professional player Timo Boll.
Kuka's robot is much bigger, but its video is heavily edited so it's hard to get a sense of its continuous movement.

‘Misappropriated’ funds put Ferrexpo charity in spotlight
Funds donated by Ferrexpo to its Ukrainian partner charity may have been misappropriated, the iron ore miner has warned.
Ferrexpo published delayed annual results yesterday with a qualified opinion from auditors at Deloitte, who were unable to conclude whether the Blooming Land charity had spent $33.5 million that it had received from the miner on “legitimate business payments for charitable purposes”.
Auditors also raised questions over the relationship between Blooming Land and Kostyantin Zhevago, Ferrexpo’s chief executive, saying that their investigations into the charity had identified “a significant number of potential associations and linkages adjacent” to him. As such, Deloitte was unable to conclude that Mr Zhevago, 45, did not have significant influence over Blooming Land, despite that being the unanimous conclusion reached by the

The osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells consists 1: in an early peak regulating the number of cells, 2: transcription and protein expression of alkaline phosphatase, 3: this is followed by high expression of osteocalcin and osteopontin. Perivascular mesenchymal stem cells and macrophages form niches that harbor dormant and self-renewing HSCs. Bone regeneration is obtained by culture-expanded human mesenchymal stem cells: osteogenic, chondrogenic, adipogenic and mature marrow stromal lineages. Two distinct niches supporting HSCs were identified: the osteoblastic and the vascular niches. They produce daughter cells. Asymmetric division means that they divide into 2 daughter cells; one daughter cell remaining in the niche as a stem cell, while the other leaves the niche to produce a large number of progeny. Symmetric division implies that stem cells divide into 2 identical daughter cells. Recent studies suggested a perivascular nature of the MSC niche, isolated from all tissue types tested. Localization of CD45-/CD31-/Sca-1+/Thy-1+ cells was found, using the markers Stro-1 and CD146, lining blood vessels in human bone marrow and dental pulp. The cells also expressed aSMA and 3G5, a pericyte associated cell-surface marker. The gene expression profiles of Oct4 and Nanog, Runx2, collagen type I, and bone sialoprotein demonstrate that the cells differentiated into osteoblasts and lost their self-renewal capability, as there was no expression of Oct4 and Nanog in the differentiated cells and in the ALP-enriched population, despite the expression of osteoblasts-related genes was enhanced.

My roomate brought home a ton of new nail polishes this afternoon including the new Sally Hansen HD polish. We got "Blu", a see-through sparkly medium blue, and "LCD", a see-though bright pink with tiny tiny blue sparkles in it. I used NYC "Pink Promenade Creme" as a base for my french tips and then topped them off with the "LCD". Then I added some twinkle designs with my striping brush in Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure "Calypso Blue" to bring out the blue sparkles in the pink, but I'm not sure if you can really see it in the pictures. Then I stuck some rhinestones on there and topped everything off with some top coat.
I was playing around before I did all my nails and painted this really cute skull, which I later redid on my roomate when I painted her nails. Enjoi.

From the northern wastelands of Wisconsin, where the climate change is bipolar and the people are both tougher and crazier, The 4am rises like a party-hardened army. Ska is not dead. Punk is not dead. Rock and Roll will never die. We won't let it and neither will you. So crack a bottle and drink deep of our strange brew - a chaotic orgy of ska, punk, metal, rock, and a little bit of your mom's midnight mixtape. You will have the night of your life today... and a 4 aspirin morning tomorrow.
Formed in early 2009, The 4am sound combines crusty guitar driven riffs with a storm of horns for a high energy act. It's not unusual to come across one of the seven piece collective staggering at odd hours of the night for a final cheap pitcher - after destroying the local dive in a neighborhood near you.

One of the key areas that the Detroit Lions need to address is their defensive backfield. Buck Stanton over here at cover32.com has come up with his list of top 10 defensive backs that are available as free agents.
Though mine would differ a bit, at least in the case of the Lions they are pretty similar overall. I’m still hoping that the Lions will make a strong push to land Jarius Byrd from the Buffalo Bills to replace the released Louis Delmas. I also think Vontae Davis will end up back with the Indianapolis Colts before it’s all said and done too and the odds of seeing him on the home team sideline at Ford Field is very slim.
One thing you will definitely not find here is any of the Detroit Lions current free agents, but it would be unwise to just forget what Rashean Mathis did for the Lions last year when their young core, including Jarius Slay and Chris Houston faltered.
Take a look at his list, and feel free to chime in below.


Reptile Class Destroyer
The Reptile Class Destroyer is the lightest cloaking ship in the lizard fleet. With it's very low hull mass and fairly economic fuel consumption it is made for reconaissance. Like all cloaking ships in the lizard fleet it is capable of towing and killing enemy freighters. Equipped with high-tec beams the Reptile Class Destroyer becomes a reasonable and dirt-cheap minesweeper. Although it's range is below the Lizard and Saurian Class Cruisers, it is still the easiest ship to refuel in enemy territory - as long as it can find weak planets or freighters to actually gain access to Neutronium.
|Reptile Class Destroyer||3||4||0/0||2||50||22||33||15||60||50||120||45||Cl||5|
- Has cloaking device (5 fuel/turn for cloaking)
- Range (ly):
Full / Cloaked: 485
Full / Uncloaked: 680
Empty / Cloaked: 640
Empty / Uncloaked: 990
- Fuel consumption per lightyear:
Full / Cloaked: 0,24kt
Full / Uncloaked: 0,18kt
Empty / Cloaked: 0,19kt
Empty / Uncloaked: 0,12kt
- Ground Attack:
Can capture fully defended planets and starbases with up to 30.000 colonists
- Combat in Lizard hands:
Due to it's very low crew it tends to get captured by torpedo and beam ships.
- Can tow
- Range and consumption are taken from a Reptile Class Destroyer equipped with Heavy Blasters and Transwarp Drive in non-stop-flight.
- The Reptile Destroyer loses about 50% of the normal crew/clans while cloaked inside radiation.

Dunnes winding-up petition in December:When is a company both “robustly solvent” and, under the terms of Section 214 of the Companies Act, deemed unable to pay its debts?
When that company is Dunnes Stores and it refuses to pay some €21.6 million to its creditor, insolvent developer Holtglen Ltd, over a debt for building works at a shopping centre in Kilkenny.
It is fair to say that Mr Justice Peter Kelly wasn’t readily embracing the logic of Dunnes’s argument, which had been earlier summed up by Maurice Collins SC, for Holtglen Ltd, as a “can pay, won’t pay” approach.
“I must say I find your client’s position difficult to understand,” Mr Justice Kelly told Brian O’Moore SC, for Dunnes , although he stressed he was not determining the issues of the case.
“Dunnes Stores is no different than any other litigant,” Mr Justice Kelly added, describing O’Moore’s claim that the retailer had been “stampeded” into becoming the development’s anchor tenant as “extraordinary”.
The retailer had not appealed a summary judgment issued by his court in March, after he dismissed Dunnes’s application to set aside an arbitrator’s award, and therefore the order to pay up was binding, the judge noted.
Dunnes preferred to concentrate on its concerns about the non-viability of the shopping centre, which is located at Ferrybank, Co Kilkenny.
Given that Dunnes is the anchor tenant in several Nama developments, the interests of the retailer and those of the State assets agency, which has taken over Holtglen’s loans, are very much aligned, the court heard.
Mr Justice Kelly did not seem especially keen to hear about the relative merits or otherwise of the development at this particular hearing, nor did he express any sympathy with Dunnes’s argument.
Instead, he observed that Nama’s position was “not unreasonable” in the circumstances.
“Nama, who are now effectively in the shoes of Holtglen, have said they are happy to talk to Dunnes Stores – but first the debt must be paid.”
The contested winding-up petition will now be heard on December 14th. The petition must be advertised by Dunnes seven days ahead of the proceedings so that any other creditors who want to, can come along and get involved in the motion to wind-up this “robustly solvent” company.
The judge’s word – “extraordinary” – seems apposite.
Spotlight still shines on agriculture
The failure to strike a deal on the EU budget last week has put the issue of the Common Agricultural Policy back into the spotlight.
The possibility that the CAP budget may be reduced now threatens to hang over Ireland’s presidency of the EU, even though the prospect of cuts seems to have receded since last week’s meeting.
Nonetheless, the issue highlights the importance the agricultural sector still holds in Ireland. Although the agri-food sector represents only about 7-8 per cent of GDP, its impact on the indigenous economy in terms of jobs and its knock-on effect on the local economy is enormous.
Unlike many multinationals, for example, Ireland’s agri-food industry sources the vast majority of its inputs from the domestic economy, generating significant economic impact.
The role of CAP in supporting Ireland’s largest indigenous industry is also worth keeping in mind as members of Glanbia co-op gather this week in Kilkenny to vote on the second part of the proposal on the hiving off of the company’s dairy division.

Deputy Secretary General of the Gerindra Party Andre Rosiade deplored the attitude of women activists, Ratna Sarumpaet, who had lied to his party, including presidential candidate Prabowo Subianto (Prabowo). According to him, his party did not think that the person could bear a false story related to the persecution case which turned out to be a hoax.
"We don't really think, Prabowo is a person who has good prejudice to everyone, with Mbak Ratna, listening to information that there is a 70-year-old parent who was a victim of violence, then he met to hear the story himself," Andre explained in a sad tone when contacted via telephone, Wednesday (3/10).
Moreover, continued Andre, the story built by Ratna Sarumpaet was very sad and of course Prabowo as a former soldier was also concerned. Because, one of the soldier's clauses is to defend women and children. So, it is not surprising that Prabowo was touched by his heart and finally appeared to defend Ratna.
"But, that's the kindness of Prabowo who always has good prejudice turned out to be used by people. So, Pak Prabowo's kindness, it turns out that is his weakness," Andre explained.
Andre said, after Prabowo heard the story from Ratna, immediately asked the police to intervene. In fact, Prabowo also defended him sincerely because he heard of persecution.
Unfortunately, the story conveyed by Ratna to the Gerindra Party Chairperson as well as some of the figures present, one of them is Amien Rais, is a hoax narrative.
"What do you want to do again. The fact is like that, so basically Pak Prabowo has a good prejudice with Mbak Ratna, Pak Prabowo defended Mbak Ratna, defended sincerely because he heard there was persecution, it turns out that the hoaks narrative is out of our control," he complained.
Andre continued, not only was Prabowo's good prejudice reciprocated with an unpleasant attitude. Andre said, Prabowo was also prejudiced against Joko Widodo who is now his opponent in the 2019 Presidential Election, and also to the former Jakarta governor, Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok), but instead stabbed Prabowo.
"Once again this is outside our control, it turns out Mbak Ratna is building a story of lies," he added.
Then, regarding the motive of Ratna Sarumpaet to deceive her party, especially to the public, Andre admitted that he did not know it yet. According to Andre, it is still a deepening process of why Ratna lied.
"He just apologized, be patient. We are also confused whether Mbak Ratna was being lobbied by people to lie or we don't know yet. It is beyond our control, not only Mr. Prabowo, Mr. Amien is also deceived," Andre said.
Previously, Ratna admitted, she had not experienced persecution like the news circulating. Ratna admitted, bruising on her face was not because of being beaten up, but purely due to plastic surgery.
He created lies to give reasons to his son who asked about his bruised face. Ratna hoped that what she conveyed could refute the news that said if she was a victim of persecution.
"Yes, I was at the doctor that day, and when I was scheduled to go home, bruises on my face were still there. I came home to need an excuse for my child and I was answered," Ratna said during a press conference with the media.

I have a broad range of teaching interests and am highly interested in developing new curriculum in new media studies in both theory and practice. With my education and expertise, I believe that I’m qualified to teach any art and communication classes as long as the subject makes me curious. As stated above, I can have my own curiosity, challenge, and commitment to develop a class and teach.
In art education, I’ve dealt with many courses related to new digital technologies, which recent art world demands the most. Also, I am highly interested in developing new curricular that can be beneficial for art students who need to deal with up-to-today technology in real world. In curriculum development, I have focused on materials that students would be interested in. Every semester, I teach two or three Independent Study courses, and these have served me as a channel to get to know what today's students want to learn.
In University of California, San Diego, I taught Introduction to Computing and the Arts and Computer Programming for the Arts as an academic staff. Both courses equipped students with necessary theoretical knowledge and technical application by utilizing recent high-tech digital technologies. In Alfred University, I co-designed a course entitled, Reactive Image with Prof. Xiaowen Chen. This unique course offered students a chance to learn how to adopt electronic skills, including circuit design. Also, students learned how to utilize programmable microcontroller in their artwork. For this course, I invented Sensor Board, a modified keyboard that allows artists to use sensors instead of pushing keys. In University of Wisconsin, Platteville, I designed both theory and studio courses, including History of Imaging, Digital Imaging, Principles of Interactivity, Multimedia Projects, Topics in Communication: Reactive Sound & Image, and Topics in Communication: Nature Photography.

We can’t get enough of Nailed It host Nicole Byer. The comedian/podcaster/TV personality has us howling with her witty observations, dazzling charisma, playful humor, and contagious cackles. On social media, she gets real, she lives her fantasy, and she announces thrilling new projects. The latest of which she teased with a big red ball.
That’s right, Nicole Byer is joining TBS’s Wipeout reboot as a co-host.
ABC’s kooky obstacle course show went off the air in 2014, but TBS announced it’s bouncing back with the signature big red balls and some sensational color commentators. Joining Byer will be WWE superstar John Cena, who’s enchanted us with his comedy stylings in Trainwreck and Blockers. Also on board as host on the field is Camille Kostek (I Feel Pretty). These three follow in the footsteps of OG Wipout hosts John Anderson, John Henson, and Jill Wagner.
Of her new gig, Byer told EW, “Now more than ever we need a ton of fun and laughs. And there’s nothing funnier than people falling over giant red balls. Wipeout is truly insane, and I’m tickled to be a part of this beloved show’s comeback.”
The only bad news is TBS hasn’t yet revealed when we might get new episodes of this hilarious competition show. For now, we’ll have to just keep rewatching Nailed It on Netflix for our Byer fix, and bingeing the original six seasons of Wipeout on Hulu.

And the big question: How do these products and services impact on each other?
When you buy a motor vehicle there are many manufactures and suppliers that combine to create an integrated piece of machinery that has a particular brand name and model!
When the designers start they do not start from nothing because they already have last years model. They have worked out what faults they need to remove and what has worked really well.
So if they are worth their salt they will take what’s best and improve on it!
If they don’t do that they would have to start all over again.
What would that look like? We will never know because our experiences shape our future to a certain extent.
If that is true why have we, as farmers not taken all the really good parts of what we have learned and create a base where we could add in what could enhance what we already have.
That way our integration of what has worked for us can be tested and improved upon.
When something doesn’t work or has a detrimental effect you don’t do it again.
To be able to evolve from your “experience base” you really need to understand your own agricultural business from at least one meter under the surface right to the top of what you produce.
This is called “integration”
If I hadn’t taken that approach when I started farming, I would never have learned how much each part of our farming system impacts on the others.
And The Bottom Line.
You need to know which inputs have which results and what impacts on all parts of your operation.
You wouldn’t see the new car being delivered to be sold without an engine?
For an insight into a system where you can create predictable outcomes
