The recent collision between the Google Car and a Californian bus notwithstanding, autonomous vehicle generally manage to get around quite well. They “see” the world around them in many different angles, analyse it, and respond accordingly. That is, until snow arrives. Snow throws a spanner in the proverbial spokes, sends video analysis systems haywire, and prevents the cars from behaving as they should.
Most driverless car tests take place in sunny California or in controlled environments, where visibility is clear and nothing fazes the AI, but this is untenable if autonomous vehicles are ever to venture in the real world where snow and haze and sleet are not a rare occurrence. Ford has now revealed how it plans to tackle the problem.
“If self-driving cars are to become a reality, and they almost certainly will, they must be able to navigate snow-covered roads,” said the car maker in a statement.
To overcome this challenge Ford is using Lidar technology. Lidar uses lasers to accurately measure distances and to create a 3D maps from data collected in favourable weather conditions. These maps are then used in comparisons with data from other driverless vehicles to identify their positions when visibility is poor.
One issue that all manufacturers face is that Lidar often misidentifies snow and water particles as obstacles to be avoided. To this end, Ford is working with researchers from the University of Michigan to develop algorithms that can recognise the particles and filter out that information which is irrelevant for safety.
To bolster data reliability, Ford combines data from radar, cameras, GPS, and Lidar to monitor road conditions. At the same time, the sensors scan the environment for roadmarks, that, when found, are compared to the existing 3D map database. This gives positioning that Ford claims is more accurate than GPS. Ford calls this sensor fusion, and the fusion system amasses some 600GB of data an hour.
The diffusion of reliance on multiple sensors create for a more accurate and safer reading of the environment. If one sensor goes awry, the system as a whole should still function properly.


This study presents the performance evaluation of a system consisting of a Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) and steam turbine where the fuel cell is powered by synthetic gas from municipal solid waste (MSW). Analysis is performed based on first and second laws of thermodynamics. The modelling of the system is done in a flow sheeting software Cycle Tempo®. This work mainly focusses on the effective utilization of solid waste by producing the Syngas from gasification. Syngas after cleaning is supplied to the SOFC along with air. The syngas undergoes internal reforming at the fuel cell producing hydrogen which acts as fuel for SOFC. The influence of various operating parameters such as compressor pressure ratio, turbine inlet temperature (TIT), upon thermal efficiency and specific power output are studied. Exergy destruction of various components of the system are also evaluated. The evaluation results are helpful for making suitable modification of the parameters for obtaining optimum configuration of the system. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

One of the leading developers announced the development of “an exclusive community offering luxury sky villas to cater to the elite” in an upcoming locality in Bangalore. The proposed project was designed as six imposing tower blocks that offered a panoramic view of the City. As a well-known builder was developing the project, around 200 plus “high net individuals” invested their savings in this project. The plans had received sanction approvals from the City Authorities. The Project was almost completed and many of the apartment owners had started the interior works, when the Government swooped down to claim the property.
According to their reports, the Government had acquired and leased the land to a party for industrial purpose with the aim of generating employment for the local people. The residential apartments that were built on the plot of land was therefore in violation of the City laws and were deemed illegal as they encroached on Government land. Further investigations seemed to point to the fact that the developers had misrepresented the facts before the sanctioning authorities and obtained permission to develop the project.
When the panicked buyers approached the developers, the developers tried to assure them that they planned to file an appeal with the higher court and that the verdict would be in their favor. Unfortunately, the case is now embroiled in the courts and has left the buyers uncertain about their investments.

Synchronization is in every single place! this can be the sensation one may well get as soon as alerted for it. everyone seems to be accustomed to every kind of organic rhythms ('biological clocks') that create a few form of conformity in time and in nature. This comprises for example neural job and mind job, but additionally the cardiac vascular process. sincerely, there are many different examples to be pointed out, occasionally even more arguable just like the claimed synchronicity of the per 30 days interval of nuns in a cloister, etc. Synchronous movement was once most likely first said by means of Huygens (1673), the place he describes an test of 2 (marine) pendulum clocks placing on a gentle weighted beam, and which show (anti-)frequency synchronization after a brief time period. Synchronized sound in within reach organ tubes was once suggested by way of Rayleigh in 1877, who saw related results for 2 electrically or robotically attached tuning forks. within the final century synchronization acquired loads of cognizance within the Russian clinical neighborhood because it was once saw in balanced and rotors and vibro-exciters. probably an enlightening capability new software for coordinated movement is within the use of 1000's of piezo-actuators with a view to receive a wanted movement of a large/heavy mechanical set-up like for example an plane or Mm-scanner, or the coordination of microactuators for manipulation at very small scales. In astronomy synchronization concept is used to give an explanation for the movement of celestial our bodies, similar to orbits and planetary resonances, In biology, biochemistry and drugs many structures may be modelled as oscillatory or vibratory platforms and people structures convey an inclination in the direction of synchronous habit. between evidences of synchronous habit within the flora and fauna, one could reflect on the chorusing of crickets, synchronous flash mild in a gaggle of fire-flies, and the metabolic synchronicity in yeast telephone suspension. the topic of synchronization has acquired large recognition within the final many years, particularly by means of biologists and physicists. This recognition most likely facilities round one of many primary concerns in technological know-how, particularly interest: how come we discover synchronous movement in a wide ensemble of exact platforms? additionally, new avenues of strength use of synchronicity at the moment are being explored. Synchronization has a lot in universal - and is in feel identical to-coordination and cooperation. In precedent days it was once already understood that joint job could permit to hold out projects which are undoable for a person. The authors' curiosity within the topic of synchronization is strongly prompted by means of a wish to comprehend what the fundamental constituents are while coordinated movement is needed in an engineering method. We hence have focused during this publication on synchronization or coordination of mechanical platforms, like in robot platforms. this permits to delve, at the one hand, within the theoretic foundations of synchronous movement, yet, nevertheless, made it attainable to mix the theoretical findings with experimental verification in our learn laboratorium. This ebook concentrates consequently on managed synchronization of mechanical structures which are utilized in undefined. specifically the e-book bargains with robot platforms, which these days are universal and demanding structures in creation approaches. although, the overall principles constructed right here should be prolonged to extra basic mechanical platforms, equivalent to cellular robots, ships, automobiles, microactuators, balanced and unbalanced rotors, vibro-exciters. The ebook is equipped as follows: bankruptcy 1 provides a basic creation approximately synchronization, its definition and the different sorts of synchronization. bankruptcy 2 offers a few easy fabric and effects on which the publication relies. In part 2.1 a few mathematical instruments and balance strategies used in the course of the booklet are awarded. The dynamic versions of inflexible and versatile joint robots are brought in part 2.2, together with their most crucial homes. The experimental set-up that would be utilized in later chapters is brought in part 2.3, the place a short description of the robots and their dynamic types is gifted. bankruptcy three addresses the matter of exterior synchronization of inflexible joint robots. The synchronization scheme shaped through a suggestions controller and version established observers is gifted and a balance facts is built. Simulation and experimental effects on one measure of freedom structures are integrated to teach the applicability and function of the proposed controller. the most contribution of this bankruptcy is a achieve tuning method that guarantees synchronization of the interconnected robotic structures. The case of exterior synchronization for versatile joint robots is addressed in bankruptcy four. The bankruptcy starts off by means of explaining the diversities among inflexible and versatile joint robots and the results at the layout of the synchronization scheme. The synchronization scheme for versatile joint robots and balance research is gifted. The bankruptcy encompasses a achieve tuning strategy that promises synchronization of the interconnected robotic structures. Simulation effects on one measure of freedom structures are incorporated to teach the viability of the controller. the matter of inner (mutual) synchronization of inflexible robots is handled in bankruptcy five. This bankruptcy provides a common synchronization scheme for the case of mutual synchronization of inflexible robots. The bankruptcy contains a basic strategy to decide on the interconnections among the robots to assure synchronization of the multi-composed robotic approach. Simulation and experimental effects on one measure of freedom platforms are integrated to teach the homes of the controller. bankruptcy 6 provides a simulation and experimental research utilizing inflexible robotic manipulators and exhibits the applicability and function of the synchronization schemes for inflexible joint robots. specific realization is given to sensible difficulties that may be encountered in the intervening time of imposing the proposed synchronization schemes. The robots within the experimental setup have 4 levels of freedom, such that the complexity within the implementation is larger than within the simulations and experiments incorporated in Chapters three and five. additional extensions of the synchronization schemes designed listed below are mentioned in bankruptcy 7. a few conclusions concerning synchronization usually and robotic synchronization particularly are offered in bankruptcy eight.

We’ve seen road-clearing operations ramping up in the past few weeks following President Rodrigo Duterte’s orders to reclaim all public roads that are being used by private entities. In line with this, Senator Win Gatchalian recently requested the President to fast-track the passing of the Proof-of-Parking Space Act into law.
“Passing this bill will be a big boost to the administration’s campaign of reclaiming public roads and help ease the perennial traffic woes we are experiencing in Metro Manila,” said the senator. “I hope President Duterte will certify this bill as urgent as it is very much aligned with his vision of alleviating the constant struggles of the commuting public.”
Senate Bill No. 368, which was filed by Gatchalian last month, is the most recent version of the Proof-of-Parking Space Act; an earlier version was in the works late last year. If passed into law, it will require all potential vehicle buyers—both individuals and businesses—to present proof that they have proper parking spaces for their intended purchases. This will be in the form of an affidavit confirming the existence of an available parking area that has been acquired by the car buyer through purchase or lease.
SBN 368 will also mandate the Land Transportation Office and the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority to conduct regular inspections of major and minor thoroughfares around the metro to remove illegally parked vehicles—an operation that some local government units have already begun in compliance with the Department of Interior and Local Government’s 60-day deadline for the road cleanup.
“Motor vehicle owners should be made responsible to provide permanent parking space for their private vehicles, whether this is made an integral part of their house or building structure, or a leased facility,” Gatchalian said. “The street is primarily intended for vehicular or foot traffic and should not be appropriated as personal parking spaces for these vehicles.
“The present administration is in a good position to achieve real, tangible change by overhauling Metro Manila's outdated public transportation system,” the lawmaker concluded
Check out more details on the Senate Bill here, then tell us what you think in the comments.

New research shows that we throw away, on average, twice as much water per year in the form of uneaten food as we use for washing and drinking.
What is worse, increasing amounts of our food comes from countries where water is scarce, meaning the food we discard has a huge hidden impact on the depletion of valuable water resources across the world.
According to the first comprehensive study into the impact of the “embedded water” in the UK’s food waste on world water supplies, more than a 5% of the water used by the UK is thrown away in the form of uneaten food.
Such passages are widespread enough in the pages of American periodicals that at least one longtime film publicist, Jeremy Walker, has coined a term of art for them: the documented instance of public eating, or DIPE. Consider, for example, Cate Blanchett impulse-ordering a side of Parmesan-fried zucchini at a restaurant in London and impishly telling a writer from Vogue that she doesn’t intend to share: “I think we’d each better get our own, or things could get ugly.”
Even when an actress doesn’t overtly chow down, it is not unusual for her to gush about her fondness for doing so. “I actually really love to lie in bed, watch TV, be a total sloth, and eat my favorite food: Kraft macaroni and cheese,” Drew Barrymore told Harper’s Bazaar in the October 2010 issue. “Last night I was watching ‘The Next Food Network Star,’ eating mac and cheese, and feeling grand.” Cameron Diaz, it seems, cannot resist a burger and fries. Gearing up to play Etta James in “Cadillac Records,” Beyoncé Knowles relied on butter pecan ice cream. “I just learned what guanciale is, when I was in New Orleans,” Christina Hendricks mused in Esquire in 2009. “It’s the pig jowl. I went to this butcher there, and I came home with lots of sausages: a big andouille and a blood sausage.”
Term given to a boycott of onions in Mumbai’s suburbs by way of protest against their soaring price.
[Kanda means "onion" in Marathi; Satyagraha is a Hindi term used by Gandhi to describe the concept underlying non-violent resistance.]
In The Mumbai Mirror, Yogesh Sadhwani reported “citizens across Mumbai’s suburbs have decided to send a pungent message to the government for failing to control the runaway onion prices”:
Kanda Satyagraha – striking onions off all meals – is the new buzzword in citizen activism in true Gandhian spirit.
It started with a simple SMS campaign late last year, and has now blown into a full-fledged campaign with more and more families joining in by going off onions at least for a week, even if they can still afford to buy the exorbitantly priced vegetable.
But it may have staying power; the signs and portents are there. Vegans, freegans, locavores — meet the invasivores.
Some divers in the Florida Keys recently held a lionfish derby, the idea being to kill and eat lionfish, an invasive species. Local chefs cooperated by promoting the lionfish as a tasty entree. The idea drew editorial support from Andrew Revkin in a post on The Times’s Dot Earth blog in which he also mentioned an attempt by some fisheries biologists to rename the invading Asian carp “Kentucky tuna” to make it more appealing to diners. And the Utne Reader recently ran an article about Chicago chefs turning their attention to the same invasive fish.
The rumblings go further back, of course, as rumblings always do. The idea of eating kudzu and the recipes for it have been around for decades. More recently, at the beginning of 2009, a San Francisco blogger on matters ecological, animal and political, Rachel Kesel, posted a nicely turned argument for the “invasive species diet.”
Commenting on some of the less-appetising options available to would-be invasivores in the Northeast – zebra mussels and Didymosphenia geminata algae – Gorman observed:
I don’t see the beginning of a menu there. But if we broaden the definition of invasives to include the things that invade the average suburbanite’s yard and golf course, a world of possibilities open up – deer, raccoons, opossums, squirrels, skunks, rabbits and woodchucks.
I learned a new acronym: SoFAS (Solid Fats and Added Sugars), which are the main parts of our American diet we need to eat less of, according to the newest 2010 report of the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee. And here’s a scary statistic: We Americans drink 500 times as many soft drinks today as we did 50 years ago.
SoFAS (added sugars and solid fats) contribute approximately 35 percent of calories to the American diet … Reducing the intake of SoFAS can lead to a badly needed reduction in energy intake and inclusion of more healthful foods into the total diet.
After about half a minute, once the stuff has gotten most of the way to frozen, your ice cream masher starts scraping up the frozen puddle. Watch closely because this is the really beautiful part of the experience: The frozen puddle breaks up into long, stiff crystals, and it looks sort of like a miniature version of Superman’s Fortress of Solitude rising from the ice.
Then your masher really goes to work. He’s got two kinds of terrifying implements – like large paint scrapers, but sharper, like what some evil chef-villain would wield in a “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” movie. And he proceeds to chop, flip, pound and mash the heck out of your ice cream until it’s utterly smooth.
At some point, he has placed your single whole peanut butter cup on top of the mess and then proceeded to chop and pound it into oblivion with the rest. It’s now clear that we need a word for this new job. I suggest cremista.
You know a new dining phenomenon is legitimate when it gets a portmanteau name. “Linner” or “dunch” is served between 3-5 p.m., often a time for restaurants to close and prepare for dinner rush. “Linner” (I prefer that over “dunch”) is becoming such a trend in New York City that the New York Post went out to find some notable places selling it.
Actress Tilda Swinton’s description of a lustful food scene in the movie “I am Love.”
Discussing Luca Guadagnino’s movie “I am Love,” in which British actress Tilda Swinton stars, The Times’s Brooks Barnes wrote:
With its close-ups of gorgeous cooking, “I Am Love” could easily be categorized as a foodie movie, an Italian counterpart to Ang Lee’s “Eat Drink Man Woman,” which showcases Chinese haute cuisine. (Critics have singled out one scene, in which Ms. Swinton’s character dines on glazed prawns, as a particular showstopper. Ms. Swinton herself calls the moment “prawn-ography.”) Some of the food scenes, she said, were inspired by Pixar’s “Ratatouille.”
Carlo Cracco, the chef behind the Cracco restaurant in Milan, served as an adviser to Mr. Guadagnino, who calls food “a tool to express the utter giving that a lover can display to the other without words.”
But “I Am Love” aims much higher than food porn. Ms. Swinton and Mr. Guadagnino wanted to modernize the old-fashioned melodrama.
No, not from Michelin. These stars are awarded by Japan’s latest hit TV show, “Kitanachelin,” in which Tokyo’s cheapest, filthiest, but most delicious eateries are visited and rated by a bunch of comics and TV stars dressed in evening wear more suitable for dinner at The Ritz.
The title combines the Japanese word for dirty (kitanai) with the name of the hallowed French foodie guide, which launched a Tokyo edition in 2007. …
The Fuji TV show cheekily sports a riff on the Michelin man for its logo. It started as a segment on a popular comedy program and grew into a series of hour-long specials, tapping into a recent trend toward what locals are calling, B-kyu gurume, or B-class gourmet – good, cheap, unfussy food, That goes along with the wider trend of budget-conscious Japanese consumers shunning department stores and luxury goods in favor of Uniqlo clothing and 99-yen grocery stores.
High-end restaurant cuisine that is delicately prepared and presented – often literally with tweezers.
In a passionate take-down of Sam Sifton’s review of the New York restaurant Sho Shaun Hergatt, foodie Josh Ozersky deployed the term “tweezer food” to describe the precision of certain eateries that serve “international rich person food.”
I ate in that restaurant, and that is a three-star restaurant. Now, you can say “I don’t like tweezer food, I’d rather have a taco,” … Great! Great! Go have a taco! … This is a restaurant that has an army of people working in lock-step perfection …
In January, Oliver Strand wrote a splendid piece for The Times on the mechanics of using tweezers in food preparation:
The most recent cross-disciplinary tool in a chef’s batterie de cuisine comes from the operating room: medical tweezers. In some of the country’s most ambitious restaurants, a pair of them allows a chef to put the final, seemingly impossible touches on a dish. …
Tweezers are altering how chefs move around the kitchens in restaurants like Corton, in New York; and McCrady’s, in Charleston, S.C.; and Manresa, in Los Gatos, Calif. Sit at the counter of Commis in Oakland, Calif., and you can watch the chef, James Syhabout, and his staff in the open kitchen intently assembling each dish with a series of almost soundless movements. When all the cooks are bent over one plate, tweezers poised, it looks like a silent game of Operation played backwards.
You can watch Ozersky have his cake and make his point below:
Writing for Wired, Lore Sjöberg marveled at the invention of KFC’s Double Down sandwich – which substitutes fried chicken for bread – and conceded:
Still, you can’t put the genie back in the grease-stained bottle, so I say let’s go for it. Anything goes from here on out, and I for one don’t intend to be left behind by the salty tides of suicide cuisine.
Sjöberg offered further “suggestions for future fatty fun foods,” including “bacon-wrapped bacon balls” and “butter buddies” (edible toys).
The fear of looking like a ruminant when eating watercress.
(Ermintrude is a cow in the psychedelic children’s television animation, “The Magic Roundabout.”)
Writing for The Times of London, Tony Turnbull observed:
I don’t know about you, but I’ve never had any trouble eating watercress. I’ve always enjoyed its peppery kick, the ferrous bite of its leaves and fresh crunch of its stalks. Indeed, I’d go so far as to describe it as the perfect salad leaf.
But while I’ve been happily munching away, a large swath of the nation has not. Apparently, the so-called “Ermintrude effect” has put off would-be watercress eaters in their thousands. Some people find it very difficult to deal with delicately, and end up with stalks sticking out of the corners of their mouths in an unattractive, four-legged-ruminant kind of way.
According to Turnbull, a company named Steve’s Leaves is now producing “fork-friendly” baby watercress.
Those unfamiliar with Ermintrude can see her in the clip below; she is the one in the blue hat, beating a drum.
Middle class French Muslims of North African descent who are fueling demand for halal products – i.e., those permitted under Islamic law.
Writing in The Guardian, Kim Willsher attributed the increase in sales of Halal food and drink in France to the emergence of “an affluent middle class of young Muslims”:
Known as the beurgeois – a play on bourgeois and the word beur, slang for a French person of North African descent – these new consumers are behind a rapidly expanding and highly profitable market in halal food and drinks.
With spending power worth an estimated €5.5bn [$7.3bn] a year, according to the opinion pollsters Solis, these under-40s are forcing international food suppliers to cater for their demands.
Among those responding to these demands are supermarkets such as Carrefour and Casino, and the fast food chain Quick, which has opened a number of halal-only burger bars. According to Willsher:
Muslim corner shops selling exclusively halal foods and drinks including eggs, turkey bacon and pork-free sausages as well as alcohol-free “champagne,” known as Cham’Alal, are also flourishing.
One young Frenchman of Algerian descent, Yanis Bouarbi, told Willsher that many second and third generation North Africans have good jobs and money to spend and “want to go out and profit from French culture without compromising our religious beliefs. We don’t just want cheap kebabs, we want Japanese, Thai, French food; we want to be like the rest of you.” Bouarbi runs a Web site listing over 400 restaurants in and around Paris which serve halal food. He also said:
“Supermarkets aren’t benevolent charities, they’re in it for the money. … And they’ve discovered halal sells.”

Governor says special session may be needed on Medicaid expansion
Laura Seitz, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — After pitching his plan personally to GOP lawmakers Tuesday, Gov. Gary Herbert said the details of how Medicaid expansion money would be used may have to be sorted out in a special session of the Legislature.
But the governor said he expects "clear direction" before the 2014 Legislature ends March 13 to start negotiations about how the state can use what he says is $258 million available under the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.
"I would like to have them give me that authorization, that blessing, that 'go get 'em cowboy' kind of an approach and see what we can do back in Washington. I'm very optimistic," Herbert said.
His plan to accept all of the federal money offered for a state-administered program to provide health care coverage for low-income Utahns willing to work is competing with proposals from the House and Senate.
House Speaker Becky Lockhart, R-Provo, is pushing a plan to reject the Medicaid expansion money in favor of spending some $35 million in state funds for limited insurance coverage using existing state programs.
And Sen. Brian Shiozawa, R-Cottonwood Heights, wants to use only a portion of the Medicaid expansion money to cover just those Utahns who would otherwise not receive subsidies under Obamacare.
Neither the House nor Senate GOP caucuses could agree which plan to back Tuesday. Herbert met behind closed doors with the Senate GOP caucus and sent Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox, a former state representative, to the House caucus.
"There's three different proposals out there, and we've got eight days to reconcile them. We will," Herbert told reporters, even though that may only be "a plan to have a plan" with few specifics.
"We won't have everybody happy, you know. But we'll have clear direction that the governor needs to go back to Washington and negotiate a deal," Herbert said. "I'm going to go back, and I'm going to do it."
He said the law requires him to make decisions about Medicaid expansion in conjunction with the Legislature.
"I'm not worried about not having authorization or the ability to go back. I will work with the Legislature," Herbert said.
Cox, who spoke to House Republicans before they closed their caucus, started off by saying the issue had become "fairly toxic" and they all should be able to agree that they hate Obamacare.
"I'm here to talk you into the best of four crappy decisions," Cox said, telling the House Republicans repeatedly the governor is looking for their help. "The governor's plan is not set in stone at all."
House members appeared to have little interest in the argument Cox made that Utah taxpayers are already paying more than $800 million a year toward Obamacare and should get some of that money back.
Rep. Brad Wilson, R-Kaysville, said it would be politically difficult to reverse a program created by the governor's plan.
"It seems to be an irreversible decision," Wilson said, adding that those should be made slowly.
And Rep. Ken Ivory, R-West Jordan, warned the federal funding pledged to the states for Medicaid expansion was not sustainable because of the nation's debt.
"It's really just a classic Ponzi scheme," Ivory said.
Rep. Dean Sanpei, R-Provo, who helped draft the House plan, said it appears the governor is focused only on getting the maximum amount of money from the federal government, not the most flexibility for using it.

RICHMOND, Va. — A boost for parents hoping to get their children vaccinated against COVID-19. This week the Commonwealth is expected to start receiving both Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna shots for children younger than five years old.
Vaccines have already arrived at some locations, according to Virginia Department of Health vaccine coordinator Christy Gray.
"We’re really thrilled that parents have the option now to protect the youngest of their family, really against the virus," Gray said.
Before both vaccines received emergency use authorization from the Food and Drug Administration, VDH preordered 102,000 doses, set to be distributed across 200 locations.
However, Gray noted that this rollout is different.
Parents are more likely to turn to their pediatricians to get the shot, rather than attend community clinics or mass vaccination sites.
"This age range of children are usually more often going to the provider," Gray said. "They’re already getting Well Child visits and already have contact with their provider more often, so this is a really different state in which the parents are really going to be having their child vaccinated more in their primary care office.”
However, that could create a lag time.
"You have the intake of the vaccine, you want to check the vaccine to make sure it's in good condition, that it's at the correct temperature during shipment," Gray said. "You want to log it to make sure that you have inventory for it. You want to make sure your staff are trained that they know how to use this product. There's all these different steps that a provider might want to make sure they have squared away before they actually start making appointments."
That lag time is something Dr. Eric Freeman, a pediatrician at Old Dominion Pediatrics, said could frustrate parents eager to get their child vaccinated.
“To be honest, I have had probably 20 or 30 parents in the past two weeks, who have been begging and pleading to get vaccines in my office," Freeman said.
Like many doctors, Dr. Freeman waited for authorization before placing a vaccine order.
Now, he's trying to determine how many doses his practice will need, as well as how they'll manage vaccination scheduling, working with the Richmond and Henrico Health Districts to get shipments.
“It’s our understanding that hopefully over the next week or so, I think shipments will begin to roll out. I think much of that was really waiting for the CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky's blessing," Freeman said. “I think for many of us, it’s going to be a matter of just working out logistics, whether it’s scheduling. I think some practices are going to come up with certain days or times during the day where they will focus on vaccination.”
The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is a three-dose series, with the first two administered 3 weeks apart and the third administered at least two months after the second dose.
The Moderna vaccine is a two-dose series administered four weeks apart.
Gray said providers can choose which vaccine to offer their patients.
"For many families that may be looking to complete their vaccination series before school starts, Moderna might be your most optimal regimen," Dr. Freeman said. "If we're really trying to ensure full vaccination before school starts, Pfizer's going to be a bit more challenging. But I think being able to provide as much choice to our parent consumers is probably going to be the best option that we can present to our patients and families."
Dr. Freeman said he's encouraging families to get their vaccine, even if a patient has had the virus before, citing a low risk of adverse reactions to the shot.
"Just because you've had COVID before, because the virus is mutating, you can get COVID again," he said. "For those individuals who have been infected with COVID, vaccination is actually a good thing for you. Doing a vaccine will actually optimize and accelerate a more maximal immune coverage for you for future outbreaks."

After more than six months on the injured list, Colombia’s Radamel Falcao returned to the soccer pitch, scoring a decisive goal during the Monaco-Arsenal match at Emirates Stadium in London.
The Colombian striker finally left the sidelines where he was kept for 194 days due to a knee injury he acquired in January, Colombia’s El Espectador newspaper reported on Sunday.
Scoring the game-winning goal at the 36 minute mark against Arsenal, “El Tigre” headed his way back into the heart of Monaco fans, who have been waiting to see the Colombian score again. The game was Falcao’s second after returning from injury, in which Monaco beat Arsenal 1-0.
The Colombian got substituted in after 72 minutes in Monaco’s first game during the Emirates Cup against Valencia that ended in a tie, international news website Mail Online reported.
For the winning goal against Arsenal, a completely unmarked Falcao netted the ball with a well-timed run on a free-kick pass by Portuguese midfielder Joao Moutinho.
After the victory, Monaco head coach Leonardo Jardim stated that he was satisfied with the performance of the team and Falcao, whose importance he stressed, according to British soccer site Goal.
“Falcao is indispensable to Monaco. I’m very satisfied with the performance of Falcao and that he scored,” Jardim told reporters.
“Falcao is indispensable to Monaco.”
Falcao played 58 minutes before being replaced by French teammate Valere Germain.
The match was a part of the Emirates Cup arranged by Arsenal, in which Monaco secured third place in the four-team, pre-season tournament.
Recently, Real Madrid have been reported to target the Colombian Falcao to improve their already strong offense and join Colombian national teammate James Rodriguez, who had his first day of practice on Friday with the Madrid club.
Arsenal keeper David Ospina, who also plays for the Colombian national team, has yet to debut for his new British side. Ospina was reported to have had physical discomfort after his arrival in England, according to El Espectador.

Srinivas Bommidala, Group Director, GMR Group, talks about the long-term impacts of privatisation of airports, withdrawal of service tax exemption and the Â´Make in IndiaÂ´ campaign as well as the growth potential of the industry.
The government has announced privatisation of some airports. How will this help the sector?
Privatisation of airports in India has already delivered wide ranging benefits to travellers, airlines, government bodies and the national economy.
a)Post privatisation in 2006, Delhi Airport alone has contributed over Rs 8000 cr to the kitty of Airport Authority of India which can be used for the development of aviation infrastructure in the country.
b)Indian airports have set global benchmarks not only on infrastructure or facilities aspects, but also on service quality. Our airports are now rated amongst the top airports in the world on airport service quality by Airports Council International, with both Delhi and Hyderabad Airports having been rated as first in their respective traffic categories in recent years, and also sustaining the top rankings.
c)Airlines have benefited immensely as the new infrastructure addition has eased air-side congestion and reduced costs due to hovering. The enhanced infrastructure has allowed for faster aircraft turnaround time reflected in the higher asset utilisation factors of airlines.
d)The above developments have ultimately benefited the passengers who are experiencing the best of the facilities, services and air service through these airports. Private airports have taken the lead in aligning themselves with the Â´Digital IndiaÂ´ initiative by adopting new technologies for easing out archaic airport processes, providing a greater level of convenience and empowerment to the passengers, such as E-boarding process at Hyderabad and Delhi Airports.
e)With respect to benefits to community at large, I would like to highlight that National Council of Applied Economic Research conducted an in-depth study which showed that post development, Delhi AirportÂ´s contribution to the state GDP has jumped to 13 per cent and is set to increase to 22 per cent by 2020. Similarly, Hyderabad Airport study has indicated significant benefit and growth potential.
As a company, we are hopeful that privatisation of the AAI airports will lead to similar benefits. The actual outcome will depend on the privatisation model adopted by GoI which should be fair enough to attract required private capital for the development of airport infrastructure and overall growth.
How is the withdrawal of service tax exemption affecting investments?
Undoubtedly, this exemption will drive costs of airport development by about four-five per cent. With the government planning a number of greenfield airports, the move comes at an unfortunate time. The perception that airports and airlines are the playground of the rich has also hurt the sectorÂ´s ability to hold on to this exemption.
Having said that, I am sure the Finance Minister has taken this step keeping in perspective IndiaÂ´s fiscal situation as well as the governmentÂ´s stand to withdraw exemptions and implement lower tax rates across industries.
The government is developing no-frills airports. What kind of opportunities has it generated for the sector?
The no-frills airport concept is still in its nascent stages. While it is being touted as the panacea to all financial troubles for the sector, it is important to note that airport charges account for as little as three-four per cent of an airlineÂ´s overall cost structure.
The no-frills airport concept in general would imply doing away with expensive architectural design for simple boxy warehouse-like design, going for low ceilings, smaller area per passenger, doing away with the glass and steel finish to reduce air conditioning costs, opting for stairways instead of escalators, providing bus gates instead of aerobridges and so on. Essentially, itÂ´s a model which strips away the cost of amenities that passengers want so as to reduce the costs for airlines. The idea has not found many takers. In any case, airport charges are an insignificant portion of an airlineÂ´s cost and do not deterÂ¡mine an airlineÂ´s pricing strategy. Hence, I donÂ´t believe the concept will fundamentally alter the opportunities. Another important dimension on this subject is to recognise that no-frills airports is a model optimal only for smaller regional cities. The larger metro or hub airports that represent gateways to the nation have to provide world-class facilities in line with their global peers. Therefore, the concept of no-frills is more contextual rather than a uniform trend.
To what degree has the Â´Make in IndiaÂ´ campaign helped the sector?
The Â´Make in IndiaÂ´ campaign is one of the most progressive and thoughtful policy initiatives launched by the Government of India. It will boost foreign investment in India, help improve exports and also lead to job creation. The governmentÂ´s boos0t to manufacturing, especially in electronic products, pharmaceuticals, aerospace and defence, is in turn, expected to provide a tremendous boost to air cargo. Secondly, the growth of manufacturing will provide the required impetus to the growth of air cargo in India and also facilitate Indian airports to act as hub cargo airports. Till date, international carriers aggregate our exports at other airports like Dubai, Singapore, and Hong Kong. With the boost in our cargo volumes, Indian cargo airports can transition from feeder to hub airports.
What are the reasons due to which projects get delayed or stalled? Is there a huge chunk of delayed projects?
Land availability, environment clearances and security approvals tend to be the most prominent reasons for delay in completion of airport projects. GMR Group takes pride in the fact that we have delivered both Delhi and Hyderabad Airports within record timelines. The Navi Mumbai Airport is an example of projects delayed due to delay in land acquisition.
What steps do you expect to make the PPP model viable ?
The Government of India has setup the PPP committee under Mr Kelkar, aimed at overhauling the PPP model. I appreciate the governmentÂ´s intention and GMR Group has already shared its views with the committee. As far as airports are concerned, we want the concession document to clearly identify the regulatory till that will be applicable to the project along with clarity on aeronautical versus non aeroÂ¡nautical revenues.
As the airport economic regulator was setup after all four private airport concessions were awarded, the sectorÂ´s biggest concern has been the regulatorÂ´s stance on the economic regulation policy and classification of revenues as aero versus non aero. Having upfront clarity will ensure that the concessioning authority is able to derive maximum value from the privatisation process and ensure that the public and private bodies are not engaged in arbitration for prolonged periods.
What changes in terms of reforms or policies do you expect for bringing the sector on the growth path?
For the aviation sector as a whole, I would like the government to focus on:
a)Clarity on regulation as mentioned above
b)Viability of airports including fair returns that need to be ensured for future growth of the sector
c)Reduction of VAT on ATF to improve the financials of airlines
d)Allowing opportunities to fly abroad by relaxing the 5/25 rule and also promoting open skies with certain nationalities
e)Implementation of a hub policy wrt to metro airports
f)Rationalisation of the applicable tax regime for the sector
g)Facilitating development of airport driven economic centres or airport cities
What is the infrastructure required to realise the growth of the sector?
The Indian aviation sector is poised to emerge as the third largest global market by 2030. To achieve this growth, the sector needs a clear aviation policy which not only addresses the concerns regarding financial viability, but charts out the growth path. The government is well aware of this and consultations for drafting the aviation policy are underway. The top concerns that the policy should address are:
a)Financial viability of airlines
Indian carriers are in financial distress and with addition of new airlines, the market is likely to get more competitive. Since aviation fuel accounts for nearly one-third of airline costs, rationalisation of the taxes imposed on ATF which can range from 15-40 per cent will greatly alleviate the financial situation of airlines.
b)Addressing dampening investor interest
A key factor responsible for low air travel penetration is lack of airport infrastructure, both in state capital cities, prominent trade and tourist centres as well as remote areas such as the North East. Airports are capital-intensive developments which require availability of cheap long-term capital, given the long gestation period of the investment.
While the government has been seeking private investment for airport development, the stance adopted by the regulator has discouraged the foreign investors and they are looking to exit their investments in India, while Indian investors are wading through losses and the erosion of their net worth.
This situation can be improved through adoption of the following steps:
- There must be predictable regulatory regime for an airportÂ´s tariff either by way of dual till or hybrid till. A well-articulated policy which ensures the economic viability of the PPP Airports present and for future developments will incentivise investors.
- Adherence to assurances provided in the concession or project agreement has become a concern area. It is, therefore, very crucial that the government addresses this issue quickly.
c)Developing airports network in a planned manner to drive regional connectivity or feeder network; and at the same time emergence of international hubs in our country.
d)Excellent multi-modal connectivity to airports.
e)Focus on land-side developments to capitalise on growth potential that can be achieved through airport driven economic centres.
What are the projects in the pipeline?
GMR Group is actively exploring airport opportunities in India and overseas in line with our asset lite asset right strategy. India and Philippines are our primary markets. While the process of privatisation is ongoing in Philippines, we have submitted our pre-qualification for Goa and Navi Mumbai Airports and are awaiting the results for the same.

I’ll go out on a limb and say that a majority, if not all of you reading this blog have a mobile device (iOS, Android, Windows, etc.). Are you nodding yes? I’m sure you know, but if not you are carrying in your hands a tiny, powerful computer. Technology has come a long way since 1981. Just imagine carrying around what’s on the left (image below) in your hand.
That device in your pocket, bag, or backpack can be an extremely useful and powerful tool for creating content. Literally, a world of creating is in the palm of your hand!
As an avid photographer, I love my DSLR (digital single-lens reflex) camera and lenses. You can create the most striking images and if you are real good at it, make a decent living. The only drawback is having to lug all the equipment around when traveling, vacationing, or going to an amusement park – enter my iPhone. I’ve come to love the photos taken on the my mobile device. Comparatively speaking, I would never photograph a wedding with my iPhone. Conversely, for my everyday camera the iPhone is fantastic for mobile photography.
Mobile phones offer you the option to capture images and edit them right on your device. Opening up the world of photography to anyone who wants to give it a try. Here are a few apps to try. Some have more creative options than others, but are great nonetheless.
- Camera+ – It’s all about one thing… creating great photos!
- Fyuse (Android) – spatial photography app that allows anyone with a smartphone to capture 3D images. Check out this example.
- Photoshop Mix – The creative editing power of Adobe Photoshop with the freedom of iPhone and iPad. Also available for Android.
- LapseIt – create amazing time lapse and stop motion videos. I created the one below while sitting at my office working.
Another one of my passions is cinematography. A great advantage of having a mobile device is that you basically have a movie studio in your pocket. Having an iPhone has opened up the creative opportunities at any time and at any location. In addition to creating video content is the ability to edit and manipulate to create a final product. There are many amateur and professional filmmakers using mobile devices as their main camera for creating stunning films. If you are brave enough, you can enter your creation in The Original iPhone Film Festival.
For those that want to create and edit one for yourself and/or to share with your friends on Facebook, Twitter, or Youtube, I have some recommended apps and tools for you.
- iMovie – streamlined design and intuitive app.
- FilMic Pro (Android) – best video app in my opinion. Has features found in many high-end cameras. Worth the $10!! Here’s a short film shot entirely with FilMic Pro on an iPhone 6s Plus.
- MoviePro- powerful video recording & film making app with built-in editor.
- Adobe Clip (Android) – makes it fast and fun to create quality videos that can be easily shared. Below is a video I created using Adobe Clip. Took me about 5 minutes to make. Of course the contraption took longer!
- Adobe Spark Video – record your voice in short increments to create an animated story.
There are many applications and/or software that you can use to create graphic designs, illustrations, or artwork. I’ve used many on my laptop or Mac at home. The obvious restriction to this is being tethered to an office or desk. Having a mobile device (phone or tablet) makes creating on –the –go very possible and easy. When ideas strike, there is no need to wait until you get home to work on a desktop. There are many apps you can use to create stunning graphics and digital stories. Here are a few graphics design apps you can try out. Coincidently, I used several of these apps to create the images in my blog.
- Canva – create beautiful designs with Canva. Choose from more than one million layouts, stock photographs and illustrations.
- Retype – use 3D, shadow and multi-color layer fonts to create photo and typography images.
- ComicBook! – transform ordinary images into visually appealing stories.
- Adobe Spark Post – create dazzling graphics for social media, websites, or any occasion.
- Adobe Spark Page – bring your words and images together to create a web story.
- Bamboo Paper (Android) – use your mobile tablet into a notebook and capture ideas. Sketch, take notes as you would on a real piece a paper.
During college, I worked in the graphic communications department. I worked on campus projects for HR, academics, athletics, you name it. In order to create a flyer, poster, or graphic, the whole printing process was time consuming. It began with a pre-production, designing, photography, typesetting, burning printing plates, printing on a press, cutting, packaging, and then shipping. It was a great experience!
Now I can do all that (with few exceptions) on my phone. Whether you are inclined to create a flyer for a parent meeting or staff event; capture life moments with your mobile device camera to create amazing photos; or produce a short film or videos for classroom use, try out some of the apps above. With a little practice, you will be amazed how easy it is to create awesomeness from a device you carry around in your pocket.

Dinosaur is a 2000 American live-action/computer-animated adventure film produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation in collaboration with The Secret Lab. The 39th Disney animated feature film, it follows a young Iguanodon who was adopted and raised by a family of lemurs on a tropical island. After surviving a devastating meteor shower, the family move out for their new home and befriend a herd of dinosaurs along the way while on a journey to the "Nesting Grounds". Unfortunately, they are being hunted down by predators such as Carnotaurus.
The initial idea was conceived in 1986 by Phil Tippett and Paul Verhoeven, where it was conceived as a darker, naturalistic film about dinosaurs. The project underwent numerous iterations with multiple directors attached. In 1994, Walt Disney Feature Animation began development on the project and spent several years developing the software to create the dinosaurs. While the characters in Dinosaur are computer-generated, most of the backgrounds are live-action and were filmed on location. A number of backgrounds were found in various continents such as the Americas and Asia; various tepuis and Angel Falls also appear in the film. With a budget of $127.5 million, Dinosaur was reportedly the most expensive computer-animated film at the time.
Dinosaur was released on May 19, 2000. Critics praised the film's opening sequence and animation, but criticized the story for its lack of originality; some even pointed out similarities with The Land Before Time (1988). The film grossed $350 million worldwide, becoming the fifth highest-grossing film of 2000. It was the fourth best-selling home video release of 2001, selling 10.6 million copies and garnering $198 million in sales.

Stevie Nicks returned to the historical Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado on Wednesday night, where she performed to an adoring, sold-out crowd. This was the second show on the unnamed summer-fall tour through the nation’s outdoor concert venues. For the first non-festival show of the tour, Stevie added two songs to the set, deep cuts “Soldier’s Angel” and “Moonlight (A Vampire’s Dream).”
Tom Petty’s “Runnin’ Down a Dream” set the tone for the much-anticipated evening, as the prerecorded track played in the background seconds before Stevie took to the stage. Moments later, the enchanting Stevie Nicks appeared and kicked off her set with the “Outside the Rain/Dreams” combo.
Early in the show, Stevie performed her biggest solo hit “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around,” a Billboard Pop Singles No. 3 in 1981. Guitarist Waddy Wachtel served as Stevie’s regular duet partner for the live rendition.
,Next up was “Enchanted,” the tight and reliable ditty from Stevie’s second solo album The Wild Heart (1983).
Near the halfway mark, Stevie performed another combo piece, “Wild Heart” and “Bella Donna,” the title tracks from her second and first solo albums, respectively. Afterwards, Stevie showed off the famous “Bella Donna” cape. “This is the original ‘kimono,'” she said. “It’s in perfect shape. 1981.”
Next, Stevie lit up the night with “Gypsy,” her majestic Fleetwood Mac hit single from Mirage (1982).
A Stevie Nicks show wouldn’t be complete without the unforgettable “Landslide.” Hardly a dry eye in the entire amphitheatre at this point, no doubt!
Another emotional moment came just before Stevie began “Soldier’s Angel,” a track from In Your Dreams (2011). Reading words that she prepared earlier that day, Stevie introduced the personal song, which has proven to be relevant in today’s unsettling world affairs. “This next song was written 14 years ago. Sadly, I knew it would be called back into service at some point in my life. Sometimes it’s easier to say how you feel in music and in pictures. I let the song and the video tell the rest of the story. The sunflower painting, as it was a present from a lady in Ukraine, her name’s Julia… (starts to cry) This is ‘Soldier’s Angel.” Overcome with tears, Stevie appeared to cut the introduction short so that she could proceed with singing the song.
The large monitor showed images of the sunflower painting that Stevie had been gifted, along with scenes of Ukrainian cities in ruins after the Russian invasion.
The pulsating “Stand Back” got the crowd on its feet, as Stevie twirled and kicked in her famous gold-circle cape.
The “Gold Dust Woman” emerged for a performance of what Stevie has described as “the crackhead dance” during the instrumental break.
Stevie explained that it wasn’t often that a movie could inspire her to write a song. But New Moon, the second film in the Twilight trilogy, did just that, as it motivated her to compose the atmospheric “Moonlight (A Vampire’s Dream) back in 2010. She joked that she had lived as a vampire over the last two years, alluding to the pandemic lockdown.
Stevie ended the regular set with the epic “Edge of Seventeen.” While she performs a shorter version of the rock anthem these days to help maintain her voice, it’s still a compelling showstopper in its abbreviated form.
The Red Rocks attendees continued to light up the night with their smartphones illuminating the entire venue just before Stevie returned to the stage for the encores.

For the first of three encores, Stevie honored her muse, the late Tom Petty, performing his 1989 “Free Fallin.'” In 1996, Stevie covered the track, with it later appearing on the release Music from Party of Five. As Stevie sang the distinctive bars of “I’m freeee!” photographic memories of her performing with Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers displayed on the large monitor at the back of the stage.
For the second encore, “Rhiannon,” the fine sky lark, took to the sky like a bird in flight once again.
Stevie ended the night with the Led Zeppelin classic “Rock and Roll,” an homage to another one of Stevie’s musical heroes.

I am a Dutch MA student of North American Studies at Leiden University and very grateful for the opportunity to do this internship at VoW. Not only will I learn a great deal from the internship itself, but I also get to indulge in the Bay Area’s culture and weather. In my spare time I like to draw and do creative writing, and I very much enjoy doing yoga. If I’m brave enough I might pick up running here, but the hills here are very challenging for someone who grew up in the Netherlands, which is a completely flat country.
I’m a long-time admirer of Voice of Witness and a lover of stories. In fact, I spent my first year out of college writing a young adult fantasy novel, drawing inspiration from days spent biking around Oakland and working in a punky cheese shop (yes, there is such a thing). I’m always in search of new ways to tell stories that empower communities and inspire action, and I’m excited to be interning with an organization that does just that. I love Voice of Witness’ forthcoming collection, Palestine Speaks, especially this line from poet Riyam Kafri: “People here are born waiting…waiting to return to a home they still carry a key for in their hand and a memory in their heart, an image hidden in the folds of their dreams.”

Try The New Grill at the Dorchester Hotel
The Grill at the Dorchester Hotel on London’s Park Lane has had a completely new look following an extensive reworking. The first thing that struck me was the background fragrance of quality cooking. It’s hard to describe but the combination of fresh table linen, fine wine wine and high end food has a smell all of its own. The ambience in the Grill at the Dorchester is sophisticated and very much luxury. You are taken on an epicurean journey from beginning to end by polite, knowledgable and professional waiters and staff. The kitchen is laden with suspended copper pans and is smartly placed at the back of the restaurant for diners to look in. On the left there is a long bar with a few bar stools to make you feel like a film star. The food is superb with sides such as bone marrow resting next to the beef which is certainly not your usual find. The bread was plentiful and delightful with different choices available. Desserts such as bread and butter pudding are classic but served with a twist. Dried fruits are served on the side to add to the pudding to your liking. All in all the new grill at The Dorchester was excellent. Choose a quiet time such as a Sunday evening to dine.


In ‘The Effect of Material Fresh Properties and Process Parameters on Buildability and Interlayer Adhesion of 3D Printed Concrete,’ international authors strive to understand more about materials and parameters in relation to concrete—specifically in terms of buildability and inter-layer adhesion properties.
3D printing with concrete is being used by companies and researchers around the globe today as they hope to harness all the classic benefits of 3D printing, from affordability to greater speed in production, and the ability to create more complex geometries—often meaning that products and prototypes not possible before can now be fabricated. And although there is a growing sense of acceptance of the technology, the researchers explain that there is still little data regarding materials and process parameters.
“A soft, flowable material is easy to extrude,” explained the researchers. “On the other hand, a stiff material can sustain the weight of more layers, although it needs more pressure for the extrusion. However, the stiffness of a cementitious material changes with time due to ongoing hydration. As a result, it may not be extrudable after its dormant period. In addition, this sometimes results in poor interface bond strength due to lack of moisture, mechanical contacts, and the presence of pores in the substrate.”
A lack of surface moisture can affect inter-layer strength, as well as process parameters. Inter-layer adhesion is a common challenge, and researchers have suggesting numerous fixes, from increasing mechanical contract between the layers or even spraying cement paste in the affected zone.
For this project, the researchers added a ‘small amount of nanoclay’ to add both strength and thixotropy. The nanoclay showed anisotropic qualities, and showed the greatest compressive strength when tested in the direction of the layer deposition.
“Nanoclay carries a negative charge on its faces and a positive charge on its ends. During the material flow, it tends to separate from each other by the electrical repulsion between similar charges. On the other hand, at rest, it flocculates by oppositely charged ends, while increasing the yield stress and viscosity,” stated the researchers, pointing out that nanoclay is not helpful in increasing the stiffening rate.
The researchers noticed macro pores, theorizing that they were weakening the 3D printed, increasing with materials higher in thixotropy.
“Reducing the standoff distance below the nozzle opening size (width) had a positive impact on improving the bond strength of the NM mix, which can be explained by the decreased porosity in the interface zone,” concluded the researchers. “The impact of the nozzle standoff distance was found to be more pronounced for the material with a higher yield stress value.
“In future work, other parameters such as structuration rate, roughness, environmental conditions, and the effect of chemical additives will be studied to gain new insights into interlayer bond strength in the concrete printing process.”
3D printing with concrete continues to rise in popularity, as users—many in the construction world—innovate with projects such as 3D printed bridges, lightweight structures, and hardware for disaster relief.

Senator Easley has introduced a bill durring the 2009 session that has carried over to the 2010 session that needs to be defeated. Her bill, SJR 3, proposes the complete repeal of term limits currently set for Oklahoma State Representatives.
THREAT LEVEL: This bill will not likely see movement. Senator Easley is in her last term and has had no real legislative victories to brag about. This is likely a last ditch effort to leave a legacy in the Senate.

Fantastic Guidance And Concepts About Fitness That Anyone Can ComprehendGetting into good shape can seem like a lot of hard work. It's possible that all you can think about when it comes to fitness is the endless tedium of doing crunches or a time in the past when you were sedentary and overweight. http://blogs.rediff.com/caitlin21florentina/2017/05/25/focus-on-natural-foods-and-get-healthy/ must let those feelings go and begin enjoying the benefits of a healthy body. This article can help you do that.
When working out, don't rush through weight or general exercise repetitions. For the best result, do them slowly. Make sure you can actually feel the resistance. Try to resist doing them as quickly as possible. This is a common mistake for people to make once they get too tired.
Add music to your fitness routine. Listening to music on your iPod while working out will keep you going for much longer than if you are doing repetitive exercises in a quiet area. Music will make you feel energized and help you keep pace by following the beat. Put together a specific fitness playlist, featuring songs that you know will keep you on track.
Sometimes it can be difficult to determine whether or not your training program is too strenuous for your cardiovascular system. Prior to starting or intensifying a workout program, measure and document your heart rate immediately upon waking. This should be done for at least five days leading up to the change. After you have started or intensified your program, continue to take measurements on the days after your workout. An increase of more than 10 beats per minute indicates that your body may not be recovering from the change as efficiently as it should be.
Great looking abs will get you attention wherever you go. To get great abs, perform this simple exercise for five minutes, every morning. Lie flat on your back on the floor or on a yoga mat. Slowly bicycle your legs up and down in the air, as if you were pedaling a bike up a hill. As you push your legs away, make sure to fully extend your legs so that your knees are straight.
Exercise is great for any female experiencing PMS symptoms. It dose a variety of things that can ease the discomfort and pain associated with PMS.

Work your way up to a higher fitness level. Don't start out trying to run a mile by sheer will power. Start off walking at a brisk pace. Each time, add a few seconds of running every few minutes. Increase the time you are running, and decrease how long you are walking every time you go. Before long you will be able to run the entire mile.
Taking hikes is a good way to improve many aspects of fitness. Hiking will improve strength in ones legs as well as improving ones cardiovascular system. Hiking can also have the added benefit of being a good stress reliever. Also one can adjust the difficulty by adding or removing weight in a backpack.
To get more muscle bulk, eat meat. Research shows that four to eight ounces of meat daily will help you add size to your muscles. A study followed two groups of men who performed the same exercise program. One group ate meat, and the other did not. While both groups grew stronger, the meat-eaters gained more bulk to their muscles. You can eat chicken, fish, turkey, beef, or pork to help add size to your muscles.
A great fitness tip is to not workout when it's too cold. When it's cold, you're muscles need more time to warm up. If you don't properly warm your muscles up, you can risk getting seriously injured. Always be sure to warm up thoroughly when it's cold.
Aim past the hole on straight putts if your preferred fitness sport is golf. Try about 17 inches. This area near the hole will be footprint-free. The grass is much thicker and your ball will go slower.
Your strength program will differ based on your end goals, so figure out what results you are looking for before beginning a program. Heavy weights are better for building larger muscles because they increase the intensity of the movements. If collagen supplement india want to sculpt and tone, simply do more reps with lighter weights.
Never let http://blogs.rediff.com/donnie737giuseppe/2017/06/05/great-tips-about-physical-fitness-that-are-basic-to-comprehend/ in the way when trying to reach a fitness goal. It is normal to feel a little unsure of yourself if you are doing something new. You will have a lot to learn, just remember that once you go at it consistently, you will get more comfortable and make progress.
Make sure that in the initial stages of planning your fitness routine to level off your expectations. If you set your goals too high, you will be putting yourself in a position for a letdown, which could reduce the motivation that you have and curtail the goals that you want to achieve.
Your workouts should be under an hour if you are trying to grow muscle. If you exercise for over an hour, your body will produce more cortisol, a stress hormone, that can result in testosterone-blocking effect. It will also waste your muscle. The best way to avoid this is having short weight workouts.
A great fitness tip is to make sure you're breathing properly while lifting weights. A lot of people who are new to lifting weights don't breathe properly. This makes them tired and clumsy. Always be sure to inhale and exhale properly whenever you decide to lift weights.
Follow a set order throughout your workout. Begin with smaller weights, move up to the larger weights, and then end your workout with the machines. The smaller muscles groups that are stressed with dumbbells tend to fatigue before larger muscle groups. It can help to workout on machines when you experience muscle fatigue to give your smaller muscle groups a reprieve.
An easy way to stay on track with your fitness goals is just to stop making excuses for yourself. Do not allow yourself to think that just because you ate healthy today or worked out hard today is reason to slack tomorrow. Take each day as a new start to keep moving forward with your fitness goals.

My laptop runs Ubuntu 16.04 and has the following specs:
- SSD 256
- i5 7200u
- 8 gb RAM
- nvidia Nvidia GeForce GTX 950M
So ... it properly plays 30fps 4k video on YouTube, but it freezes when I try to play 60fps 4k video though there was no such an issue with it on Windows 10.
I tried different drivers ...
and even different browsers ...
but it still works properly only on Windows ...
but I don't want to go back to Windows!
After having a conversation with NVIDIA support - it was found out that upon YouTube 4k play - Ubuntu highly uses CPU like on this System monitor screenshot:


Macro-Residual Stress in 304 Stainless Steel Coated with ZrO2-CeO2 Thin Films by Sol-Gel Process
X-ray diffraction (XRD) method to measure the residual stress existing in the metal substrate surface layer was introduced and the sol-gel ZrO2-CeO2 thin film was successfully prepared on SUS304 stainless steel substrate by dip-coating process. The macro residual stress existing in metal substrate was analyzed by XRD. It turns out that the compressive stress existing in the metal substrate surface layer increases with the increase of heat-treated temperature. Based on the above study, colored stainless steels of high quality were prepared by sol-gel process.
