Duck Donuts unveils its spring assortment
Wednesday, March 7, 2018
Duck Donuts, 420 E. Arlington Blvd., is a hot spot for those with a sweet tooth. Nestled in Arlington Shoppes next to Baby Bump, this sweet-smelling store cranks out an average of 8,000 doughnuts a week.
The first store opened 12 years ago in Duck, hence the name. There are now more than 15 stores in North Carolina, including five along the Outer Banks, and additional locations up and down the East Coast.
Walk into the Greenville store on any given day and breathe in the aroma of sizzling hot, fresh doughnuts, coffee brewing and all the sweet smells you can imagine. Doughnuts are one of those foods that we flock to to help change our moods. If you need a pick-me-up, eat a doughnut. If you are sad or had a bad day, a doughnut turns that frown upside down. Celebrating? Doughnuts for everyone.
Store Manager Maranda Long has been the head of this doughnut shop for more than two years and has enjoyed the fun that goes into working in an environment that serves up treats and smiles on a daily basis.
The basic Duck doughnut is a cake style with a denser middle. Pick from 12 coatings including powdered sugar, chocolate, maple, strawberry, lemon, blueberry, peanut butter, glazed, powdered sugar, vanilla or a seasonal flavor. Next, choose your topping. There are rainbow sprinkles, chocolate, shredded coconut, crushed graham cracker, chopped peanuts, Oreo crumbles, chopped bacon or a seasonal topping. The final step is the top drizzle. Choose from raspberry, blackberry, salted caramel, marshmallow, hot fudge or the seasonal drizzle.
Here is my favorite part. You don’t have to pick just one of each. You can have your cake doughnut the way you want with all the glitz, glamour and flavors you’re craving. Add multiple coatings, drizzles and toppings and pay no additional fee. I asked Maranda how many combinations you can put together and she said “the possibilities are endless.”
Customer favorites include the cinnamon-sugar doughnuts with vanilla icing dusted with cinnamon sugar, or maybe the lemon iced doughnuts with raspberry drizzle, or the vanilla iced with crushed Oreos and hot fudge drizzle. There also is a visual menu of 12 signature doughnuts in an easy size to drool over. Some additional ones include the Beach Ball with vanilla icing, chocolate drizzle and rainbow sprinkles; and the French Toast with maple icing, cinnamon sugar and powdered sugar.
Single doughnuts cost $1.40, a half dozen is $7.50 and a dozen is $13.50. You can also choose a bucketload of 18 for $21. OK, so they’re not actually served in a bucket. That was the initial idea, to serve 18 in a bucket. There was not a bucket that worked, but the name stuck.
Duck Donuts has unveiled its spring assortment, just in time for the season. There are some jazzy, fruity and fancy combinations with colored spring sprinkles at the core. Choose from 12 fun-named combinations. One seasonal icing is the Key lime, which is tart and luscious, or try the gooey chocolate iced doughnut topped with pastel sprinkles. The sprinkles are not just the small sugar-based kind; they are round, hollow, candy-coated sprinkles that break open like a malted milk ball. For my food-tasting extravaganza, I sampled three doughnuts from the spring assortment.
First, I tried the Key lime with graham cracker crumbles. The Key lime icing is bright green, tart and tangy and you get a nice buttery crunch from the graham cracker crumbs. It tasted just like a piece of Key lime pie. Duck Donuts uses fresh fruit juices in all its icings, so you are getting that bright, authentic taste.
The next option I sampled was the maple with bacon. This is one of the most popular doughnuts, and there is no doubt it’s because it has bacon on it. Mixing maple and bacon is a win-win in any food book. This combination just works, and it’s a perfect choice for your sweet breakfast treat, tasting just like soft French toast drizzled with warm maple syrup mixed with a smokey bacon flavor.
The last doughnut I sampled was the lemon iced topped with shredded coconut. This combination was as pretty as was it tasty. Coconut is probably one of the most underrated food items on the planet, but it’s snowy and light with a nice wet chew to it. The lemon icing is a soft yellow made with pure lemon juice and was also tart and dreamy. This one got my top honors. I suggest adding some raspberry drizzle to give your taste buds a spring treat.
Duck Donuts also serves a variety of coffees and espresso-based lattes that go great with the food. There is fresh ground light and dark roasted coffee as well as decaf, plus a seasonal roast. The current seasonal roast is medium-bodied Papua New Guinea coffee with hints of fruit. You can also select from various lattes including vanilla and white chocolate.
Feeling a little saucy? Choose the chocolate hazelnut mocha with dark chocolate sauce, hazelnut syrup, two shots of espresso and 12 ounces of steamed milk. It was sweet, creamy and warm all over with great chocolate flavor. Feeling a little nutty? Choose the caramel nut latte with three pumps of caramel syrup, toffee nut syrup, two shots of espresso and 12 ounces of steamed milk. It was silky, smooth and had a complex buttery flavor that was rich and rewarding. The honey cinnamon latte with honey sweetener, cinnamon sugar, two shots of espresso and 12 ounces of steamed milk was warm and inviting. Like a cozy hug wrapped in sweet honey and sugar, this one is Winnie the Pooh approved! Coffees and lattes cost $4.25 for a regular and $4.75 for a large.
Duck Donuts is open from 6 a.m.-9 p.m. Mondays-Thursdays, 6 a.m.-10 p.m. Fridays-Saturdays and 7 a.m.-9 p.m. Sundays. Duck Donuts is available to cater your next event, or choose it for your wedding and serve doughnuts instead of cake. There is an expansive catering menu that includes Little Duckling doughnut holes and coffee by the bucket. For more information, visit www.duckdonuts.com or call 689-6305.
The Humane Society of Eastern Carolina (HSEC) will host a Bone Appetit fundraising event from 4-9 p.m. March 21 at Villa Verde, 2601 E. 10th St. Ten percent of all food and drink sales will be donated to HSEC. Write “for HSEC” on the receipt and alert the server.

Keeping the Spirit Alive: Roleplaying on WoW Private Servers in 2020
08. 19. 2021
World of Warcraft (WoW) has captivated millions of players worldwide since its release in 2004. Over the years, the game has evolved and undergone numerous expansions, shaping a vast and immersive virtual world. While the official servers offer a wealth of content and a thriving player base, some players have found a different kind of experience on private servers. In this article, we will delve into the world of roleplaying on WoW private servers in 2020 and explore how it keeps the spirit of immersive storytelling alive.
A Nostalgic Return to Classic WoW:
WoW private servers often provide players with the opportunity to experience the game in its original form. These servers focus on the Classic WoW era, recreating the gameplay, mechanics, and world of Azeroth as it was back in 2004. By immersing themselves in this nostalgic atmosphere, players can relive the magic and sense of wonder that accompanied their first steps into the vast realms of Warcraft. Roleplaying on these servers allows players to tap into the rich lore and engage in storytelling that resonates with the game's early days.
Thriving Roleplaying Communities:
One of the key aspects that make WoW private servers a haven for roleplaying enthusiasts is the vibrant and dedicated community. These servers attract players who share a passion for immersive storytelling, character development, and world-building. Roleplaying guilds and events are commonplace, providing platforms for like-minded individuals to come together and breathe life into their characters. The strong sense of community fosters camaraderie, encouraging players to collaborate and create captivating storylines that span across the expansive world of Azeroth.
Customization and Freedom:
Private servers often offer additional customization options that empower players to personalize their characters and environments. With custom items, quests, and modifications, players can tailor their experience to suit their roleplaying aspirations. This level of freedom allows individuals to craft unique narratives and create characters that are distinct from the mainstream WoW experience. Whether it's adopting a new persona, designing elaborate backstories, or building custom locations, the flexibility provided by private servers unlocks a world of creative possibilities for roleplayers.
Enhanced Roleplaying Tools:
To further enrich the roleplaying experience, private servers have implemented a range of tools and add-ons. These enhancements facilitate immersive interactions between players, such as emote systems, character animations, and dedicated chat channels for in-character communication. Additionally, server-specific rules and guidelines often govern player behavior during roleplaying events, ensuring a respectful and engaging environment for all participants. The availability of these tools encourages deep immersion and elevates the quality of roleplaying interactions on private servers.
Ongoing Development and Updates:
The developers behind private servers are passionate WoW enthusiasts who continuously strive to improve the player experience. They actively listen to player feedback and invest time and effort into refining gameplay mechanics, fixing bugs, and introducing new content. This dedication ensures that the private server community enjoys a stable and evolving environment for their roleplaying endeavors. With regular updates and a commitment to maintaining server integrity, players can embark on their roleplaying adventures with confidence and enthusiasm.
Roleplaying on WoW private servers in 2020 offers a unique opportunity for players to relive the magic of Classic WoW while immersing themselves in rich storytelling and character development. The nostalgic return to the game's roots, the thriving roleplaying communities, the customization options, and the enhanced roleplaying tools all contribute to an experience that captures the spirit of immersive storytelling. As private servers continue to evolve and attract passionate roleplayers, the world of Azeroth will continue to thrive with captivating narratives, memorable characters, and an enduring commitment to keeping the spirit of WoW roleplaying alive.

The firm argues in a note to clients that the millions the manufacturers will spend on new or upgraded plants will largely go toward making factories more automated and not create as many jobs as President-elect Donald Trump may be expecting.
"With wage pressures building alongside a strong dollar, U.S. companies will need to invest in automation," the team, led by Chief Global Equity Strategist Sean Darby wrote.
The note is in response to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV's announcement that it will invest $1bn in U.S. factories that will create 2,000 additional jobs in the Midwest. The move comes after Ford Motor Co. said it will invest in Michigan production and canceled plans to build a $1bn plant in Mexico. In each case, Trump took to Twitter to take credit for or express his pleasure in the moves as evidence that manufacturing is about to blossom in America.
Wall Street is skeptical that will produce jobs for Midwestern autoworkers.

Jail terms for assaults on YCOs
The latest in a string of mandatory sentencing laws to be introduced by the State Government will see assaults on youth custodial officers punished with a three month term in jail or detention.
The announcement proposing amendments to the Criminal Code comes days after young offenders went on a violent rampage at the State’s only juvenile detention centre, Banksia Hill.
Corrective Services Minister Murray Cowper today said the decision was made following a spike of attacks on YCOs in 2012.
“While the approval to draft this legislation was sent to State Cabinet before the incident at Banksia Hill on Sunday, the events at the juvenile detention centre certainly highlighted the need for the new laws,” Mr Cowper said in a statement.
“This Government will not tolerate violent behaviour in our detention centres.”
He said the Government sought to introduce the laws “as a matter of priority”.
The State already has mandatory jail terms for assaults against police, ambulance officers, transit guards, court security officers and prison officers, and drivers who kill or injure anyone while fleeing police.
Critics of mandatory sentencing say it removes the discretion of the judiciary.
But the State Government says there has been a 28 per cent drop in reported assaults against police since the offence attracted a mandatory jail term.

Getting rid of your old cell phone can be a problem. What to do with it? Put it in a back closet, the basement, or take it to a special public trash bin set up for such electronic materials. But, one Nigerian-born businessman in Britain has a different idea and his charity, "Recycling 4 Africa" counts on discarded old phones to help Africa. Mandy Clark reports from Britain's seaside city of Brighton.
Ambrose Harcourt has made it. He arrived in Britain alone, nearly 40 years ago as a high school student and now runs three companies -- involving public relations, events organizing and wedding planning.
But when he returned to his native Nigeria a few years ago to a hero's welcome, he says he realized he needed to give something back."I felt guilty in many, many ways. They were treating me like a big hero, but in my heart of hearts I really hadn't done anything for them," says Harcourt, founder of Recycling 4 Africa.
Harcourt saw that the country's health-care system was stretched to the limit. He had just inherited a piece of land in Nigeria and an idea took shape -- he thought it would be the perfect place for a hospital.
Harcourt says he wants to start construction in 2010 and needs $2 million to build it. But Harcourt decided to not simply ask for donations. Instead, he founded Recycling 4 Africa, a charity that does not raise funds, but phones. Once a month he collects unwanted cell phones, chargers and batteries from local stores in Brighton. The large haul is helped by Britons' love affair with their phones and their tendency to upgrade them.
Harcourt also set up a workshop in Lagos to turn these used phones into jobs, skills and profit.
"I've got two or three people who work in the center. They have recruited a few other people, shown them new skills so they have required new skills from working at our Recycling 4 Africa workshops," he said.
Back in Brighton, the community has come together to help the charity. Harcourt's colleagues built more collection boxes and his artist neighbor, Julie Anne Gilbert, put her skills to use. She got Harcourt to pose for a painting, with nothing more than an old phone.
She wanted to raise the charity's profile, a few eyebrows and maybe a little cash. She says, "If you sell this, if someone wants a nice happy picture of Ambrose on their wall, that will give money direct to charity."
Harcourt says he does not mind what people think as long as it will help reach his dream of a hospital for local Nigerians. "In this country, you can go to the pharmacy and get medicine. It's not so easy over there and they have to go miles and sometimes they have to live without. If we can help them survive a bit longer and bring a bit of happiness to their lives, it will be worthwhile," he said.
Building a lifeline with phone links may be unconventional, but Ambrose Harcourt thinks it might just work.

Writing by Jodie Matthews // Photograph by Pipi Gimenez
Growing up and presenting as heterosexual enabled me to have the standard coming of age sexual experience. My virginity was touted around as if I had a precious gem stapled to my hymen, and it was my job to cross my legs as tightly as possible, to ensure that no floppy-haired, guitar-playing teenage boy could steal it away before he’d promised my family a decent sized dowry. When I came out in my late teens, I already understood the way society treats women and sex; I was aware that I was surrounded by hetero-normativity but, perhaps foolishly, I wasn’t quite conscious of the effects it could have.
I found myself in conversations with friends, who had been having sex for years, but were told by others that they were virgins, as they had never slept with men. There appears to be great debate among heterosexuals about whether or not what we do “is even actually sex.” Of course, everyone has their own opinion on what for them, personally, “counts” as sex, however the problem that can arise from these differing opinions is when they begin to infringe upon the lives of others. People have been known to state that lesbians do not even have sex, mockingly referring to their actions as glorified foreplay. Moreover, without the added charm of a penis, how could we possibly finish? The concept of fingers, tongues, fists, mouths, and bodies are not considered a means to an end, but simply stepping stones to reach the holy grail that is straight-cis-guy-dick.
The idea that what we do will never be enough is one that is frequently projected onto us, whether it’s by heterosexual friends informing us that our relationships don’t really count, or porn teaching us that our sexuality exists to provide pleasure to heterosexual men– to the extent that the actors in “girl on girl porn” aren’t even queer women, they are straight women. Apparently, we can’t even sexualise ourselves suitably.
As it stands, queer women appear to be homogenised into two groups– masculine and unattractive (read as: not seen as “real women”) or fetishised commodities for the male voyeur.
With this amount of pressure and attention placed on our physicality, it seems only natural that gender expression could start to become an issue. For a while, I felt extremely uncomfortable in my own skin. Body dysphoria can affect anyone, regardless of whether they are trans or cis. At that time, I was writing a lot about how I didn’t feel comfortable inhabiting the space of either woman or man, how I felt like I belonged in a “grey-area.” I hid my breasts, cut my hair, and lived on the edge of trans-masculine. I wrote that I was “frustrated with carrying around femininity like it’s branded on my skin.” During this time, I experienced sex in an entirely different light to anything from before– not culturally accepted cis heterosexual sex, not lesbian sex, but queer sex. When someone shouted “gay” at me and ex-partner on the street, I wanted to tell them that they had no idea just how gay we could be.
When you are having sex outside of the binary, it’s as if your body takes upon a new form– nothing is what it seemed before, there are new words, new ways to be touched, new definitions. Everything becomes fluid, in a way that biology once taught you wasn’t possible.
Now, like the changing of a season, my identity has once again found a new balance. I have come to embrace my femininity fiercely and proudly allow that brand to shine through my skin. That experience also gave me the ability to see sex as a fluid thing, rather than a stoic meeting of two parts fashioned to fit together. Sex, like gender, is not a presentation, but an expression. Entirely personal, entirely deserving of respect.

Amid all the attention on this month’s elections in Wisconsin and Illinois, one outcome with major implications for 2024 flew under the national radar: School board candidates who ran culture-war campaigns flamed out.
Democrats and teachers’ unions boasted candidates they backed in Midwestern suburbs trounced their opponents in the once-sleepy races. The winning record, they said, was particularly noticeable in elections where conservative candidates emphasized agendas packed with race, gender identity and parental involvement in classrooms.
While there’s no official overall tally of school board results in states that held an array of elections on April 4, two conservative national education groups did not dispute that their candidates posted a losing record. Liberals are now making the case that their winning bids for school board seats in Illinois and Wisconsin show they can beat back Republican attacks on divisive education issues.
The results could also serve as a renewed warning to Republican presidential hopefuls like Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis: General election voters are less interested in crusades against critical race theory and transgender students than they are in funding schools and ensuring they are safe.

A successful pilot program has driven local leaders to pick up the Wheels for Wellness program full time.
The program, which began in Comox in 1997, helps medical patients living in rural communities get to their non-emergency medical appointments out of town.
Patients are picked up at their door and returned home in a Wheels for Wellness van helmed by volunteer drivers. The service is free though donations are encouraged.
All operational costs, including gas, are paid for through grants secured by the Wheels for Wellness society but the West Coast must pay a one-time $34,000 tab to buy the van that will be used.
The districts of Ucluelet and Tofino have each agreed to put $5,000 towards the cause and Electoral Area C will pitch in another $2,000.
Possible grants are being sniffed out and local businesses are mulling over sponsorship opportunities to make up the remaining $22,000 needed for the program to be offered locally.
“It looks like there are enough potential funding sources that this can move forward,” said Ucluelet Coun. Marilyn McEwen.
Wheels for Wellness society member Don Buchner brought the program to the West Coast for a three-month pilot program that kicked off in January.
The program saw 24 participants in January and 41 in February and McEwen expects these numbers to continue rising.
“There hasn’t been a lot of advertising for this because they didn’t want to advertise something that was not going to continue here on the West Coast but now that the parties have agreed to continue the program there will be a lot more advertising and information,” she said.
Tofino’s manager of community sustainability Aaron Rodgers told the Westerly News the program would provide a valuable service to West Coasters.
“The Wheels for Wellness program allows us to address medical travel at no cost to the residents other than this initial seed money,” he said.
“We think this is a valuable program to maintain and increase health outcomes in Tofino; we know that transportation is a problem for a lot of people.”
He noted the program has proven successful in other communities and said the West Coast’s participation will connect locals to a larger network of care providers.
“This will be the first brick in the wall for solving some of our regional transportation problems and we’re looking forward to getting this done,” he said.
“We see it as a piece of the regional transportation puzzle and one that is an achievable first step for us.”
He said the “shelf-ready” program carried a relatively low cost and he agreed with McEwen that the participant numbers would likely rise as more people become aware of the service.
“As we publicize this it’s going to, most likely, continue to increase,” he said.
He said the West Coast would continue tackling transportation issues and noted Tofino has invested $2,000 of this year’s budget into exploring a regional transit system between Tofino and Ucluelet.
Don Buchner was thrilled to see the West Coast pick up the program and told the Westerly he was “amazed” by the local support.
“The community spirit is just awesome,” he said.
“They’ve stepped up to the plate. Other places that we’ve gone to do the same kind of pilot project haven’t done that; they expected it all to be given to them, but here they were willing to do something for it so we’re really tickled with that.”
He said the program’s three-month pilot project proved the service is needed on the Coast.
“From our perspective, if we get 10 per cent of the total population over a 12-month period we’re doing good,” he said.
“Costs are not as high as I anticipated and, as far as the overall picture is concerned, I would expect it to go over the 10 per cent. If we can go 600-700 passengers a year it’ll be great.”
He said volunteer drivers are needed and anyone willing to lend a hand is encouraged to contact him at email@example.com or 250-897-6359.

DH 115 S Industrial Dehumidifier
The DH 115 S not only extracts humidity out of the ambient air but this industrial dehumidifier as well reduces unpleasant smells and improves the air quality. Its strong dehumidification performance and a maintenance-friendly construction are highly convincing.
In many industrial processes, manufacturing facilities or storages dry air is required: our professional dehumidifier provides the optimal climatic conditions in larges plants or halls to avoid the softening of carton packaging for example.
Moisture damages during industrial processes can become very expensive. First of all, expensive systems and machines must be protected against moisture as well as condensation and rusting. The DH 115 S is precisely appropriate for that purpose and perfectly applicable for room sizes up to 3,200 m³

Tell Congress to Speak Up for Net Neutrality
Dear U.S. House of Representatives:
We’re at a critical turning point in the future of the internet. To the best of our knowledge:
- None of you own a cable or phone company.
- All of you use the internet.
So what comes next should be pretty easy. We’re calling on you to assert your courage, decency and basic awareness of the will of the people who elected you to office by signing on to the Net Neutrality resolution under the Congressional Review Act (CRA).
This resolution is clearly the will of the people
Not big cable. Not big telecom. Not their lobbyists.
Reversing the Federal Communications Commission vote on Net Neutrality is what we — the millions of people who rely on unfettered access to online health care, employment, education, community, civic engagement and so much more — all want.
In case it’s not clear that when we say all
we really mean all
, consider this: More than 86 percent of people in the United States said in 2018 that they support keeping the rules — including 82 percent of Republicans.1
Nearly 83 percent of voters who self-identified as “very conservative” said they were concerned about the possibility of ISPs having the power to “influence content” online.2
Nearly 7,000 small-business owners signed and delivered a letter expressing support for the CRA to congressional district offices across the country.
More than 50 racial-justice and civil-rights groups wrote the House urging your support for the CRA because the loss of Net Neutrality protections would disproportionately harm communities of color.
120 mayors of cities large and small have signed the Cities Open Internet Pledge, vowing that they will refuse to do business with any internet providers that violate Net Neutrality.
More than 800 tech startups from all 50 states expressed support for the CRA. Sir Tim Berners-Lee — the inventor of the World Wide Web — has called on Congress to restore the open-internet protections.
This issue has united people from every part of the cultural, political, economic and technological spectrum.
Nonetheless, the FCC is determined to make it legal for telecom companies to abuse our digital civil rights and act as the editors of the internet, picking and choosing what information we can and cannot see, deciding which voices are heard.3
The FCC chairman has neglected his duty to the people in so many ways. He failed to convene public hearings on the matter. He ignored rampant corruption in the proceedings, including the millions of fake comments posted to his agency’s public docket.
Chairman Ajit Pai is content to stand on the wrong side of history — alongside his former employers at Verizon.
In the words of one activist, “The FCC doesn’t even seem to be pretending that it’s acting on behalf of the public.”
What about you? Will you act on our behalf?
Are you on Team Internet and in support of the CRA?
Or are you with Team Cable and against the online rights of your constituents?
We demand to know where you stand on the current Net Neutrality CRA, a resolution that would reverse the unscrupulous FCC vote and restore the strong legal foundation and enforcement for these rules.
And please: Don’t insult our intelligence by embracing toothless alternative proposals and sham legislation written by cable lobbyists.
This is the most important vote in the history of the internet, which is the most important innovation of the last century. This is an opportunity to cement your legacy.
We won’t stop until the Net Neutrality protections are restored in full. And we’ll make sure that all of our friends remember your support for the CRA — or lack thereof — on Election Day this November.

Kanye West could soon be in charge of making wannabes Famous with rumours he’s set to join American Idol as a judge.Meet Clare Crawley's 'replacement Tayshia Adams'
The Stronger rapper is reportedly in talks to join Ryan Seacrest’s new revamped version of the show.
Kanye is said to be Seacrest’s favourite to take on the role above Simon Cowell, and NBC are reported to be thrilled with the idea, according to Radar Online.
No doubt Simon Cowell, who created the show, will be furious.
The show, which ended in April after 15 years is thought to be on the verge of making a return with Seacrest in negotiations to relaunch it.
A source from the show said: ‘Ryan Seacrest has put his [Kanye’s] name forward during his negotiations to come back as host and NBC are salivating over it.
‘Kanye is at the very top of the wish list, not Simon Cowell.
‘If Ryan hosting can help get them Kanye, that’s a happy result for NBC.’
Enough about NBC, what does Kanye think about all this?
Well, according to a source, the rapper is considering his options.
‘Kanye’s weighing the options and is even grilling Jennifer Lopez on what’s involved,’ the source said.
‘It’s not an easy gig, but the offer he’s got is proving to be very hard to refuse.’
If he does decide to take a spot on the judging panel it won’t be the first time he’s appeared on the show.
Back in 2015, he did a joke audition for the show giving JLo a bit of a shock.
Surely Kanye is Bound 2 agree?
It’s worth noting that Gossip Cop claim to have heard from Kanye’s people, and say they have dismissed the American Idol reports as ‘bogus’.
Reps for Kanye and Ryan Seacrest have been contacted for comment.

Measurement of the chemical composition of cosmic rays are essential for understanding their origin, transport and interactions in the Galaxy. In particular the Boron to Carbon (B/C) ratio is crucial for modeling the cosmic ray propagation. This book provides a measurement of the B/C ratio in the kinetic energy range 0.35–45 GeV/nucleon. This measurement are based on the data collected by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer AMS-01 during the STS-91 space shuttle flight in 1998 June. The role of light nuclei in the cosmic ray propagation physics are reviewed and discussed.

Lavanya was clearly taking advantage of ASR's weakness. Her smile vanished when she saw his calm face. She frowned. Seconds ago he was angry and now he is calm. It was quite weird.
Didn't my words affect him?
"Go on Miss.Lavanya Kashyap" Arnav said in a calm tone.
"Huh?" Lavanya asked.
"You want to tell my wife and my sister about the truth. Go on. I am not stopping you" Arnav said. Lavanya was shocked would be an understatement.
"They wont be able to tolerate that truth Arnav. I hope you realize that. Especially your Di. And what about your wife. What will happen to her when she gets to know how her husband used to treat her before? What.." Arnav cut her in middle.
"Why are you so concerned about my wife and my sister when I have no problem with you telling the truth to them? Go and tell" Arnav said folding his arms.
Arnav knew that Lavanya was trying to blackmail him. He knew she won't do anything of that sort because that would just cause harm to her. The ball was in his court now. He knew that the situation will be tough to handle when Di and Khushi get to know the truth, but at least he didn't have to bow before Lavanya. Marrying Lavanya was the last thing he ever imagined.
"I knew that you would be a tough nut to crack." Lavanya said with a winning smirk.
Everyone was getting tensed. What was happening in RM? All were in a confused state. Shyam was hoping that Lavanya did her work. Khushi was trying to be normal. Her breath hitched when she saw them coming down together. She gulped her throat. Lavanya eye signalled Shyam that their plan worked. Arnav's eyes met Khushi's. He never felt so helpless.
"Chotte, please clear this misunderstanding. What's going on?"
Arnav's gaze was still fixed on Khushi. Why did he always have to hurt her? How he wished he could change the situation! Every time, Khushi was the one who suffered for his deeds. Even this time! Did he deserve her forgiveness? Not at all.
"Lavanya and I love each other" he lied. Shyam's smile became wider. Others gasped in shock. Arnav didn't fail to notice that lone tear which fell from Khushi's eyes. She had expected this, didn't she? But she had not heard it from his mouth and today he himself cleared it. Nani was giving murderous glares to Lavanya and Arnav.
"Chotte, do you think marriage is a game? What is all this? You married Khushi bitiya without our consent and now you say you love Lavanya? What's going on? Before, you broke up with Lavanya and now after marrying Khushi bitiya you say you love Lavanya. What's happening?" Nani asked angrily. She was feeling bad for Khushi.
"Yeah chotte, Nani is right. What's wrong with you? Why are you playing with two girls? At first Lavanya, and now Khushi! Do you know the meaning of marriage? How would you? You don't even believe in marriages! " Anjali said sarcastically.
Payal was watching all this silently. She was so damn confused with whatever was happening.
"Hello hi bye byewa! If you loved miss Kasyap, then bhy did you marry Phatee..I mean Khushi? That too for 6 months" Mami asked.
Arnav looked at Khushi , whereas his mind took him back to the past, when he forcefully pulled her to the temple. She was struggling to get out of his holds, but he didn't listen to her pleads, and instead used Payal as a pawn, to marry her. He remembered her eyes spitting fire at him when he tied the mangalsutra on her neck and covered her partition with the red vermilion. He didn't realize when his eyes became moist. Why did he have to punish her always? Why did he believe Shyam even without trying to know the entire truth? Even today after knowing the truth, he didn't give her anything but pain.

Magnetic Island is the only island on the North Queensland Coast with a blend of untouched National Park, a resident population of about 2,500 and a variety of holiday resorts. And just twenty minutes by fast "Cat" across Cleveland Bay from Townsville.
Although in the Tropics, the Townsville area is in a rain shadow which makes it the sunniest city on the Queensland coast (Magnetic Island averages over 320 days of sunshine per year. More than half of the Island's 5,184 hectares is National Park, with Mt. Cook in the centre rising to 497 metres. Huge granite boulders are softened by tall Hoop pines, eucalypt forest and small patches of rainforest.
There are 24kms of walking track through the park with many spectacular lookouts. The National Park is a haven for wildlife, like rock wallabies, possums, koalas and a wide variety of bird-life. A great 6km walk to do is from Nelly Bay to Arcadia (where you can spot wild koalas), and also from Horseshoe Bay to Radical and Balding Bays. All very beautiful with a feeling of being untouched.
I was there mainly for the scuba diving (Great Barrier Reef, Yongala Wreck) but actually found there was a lot more to do. There was plenty of walking (albeit you had to choose the time of day wisely as the humidity was horrible), lots of beaches to visit (my favourite being Alma Bay), and everything from snorkeling, to hiring a bike/car, to kayaking.
The SS Yongala is one of the best dive sites in the world and in Australia. It is actually considered by many people as THE best wreck dive in the world. The Yongala Shipwreck is a 110m former steel passenger and freight steamer. It sank in 1911 during a tropical cyclone with its 124 passengers. The Shipwreck was found only in 1958 and is now a main tourist attraction in Australia.
The bottom of the wreck is at 33m, with the top at 15m and with very strong currents and visibility from 10-15m. We were lucky and the weather was relatively calm, the currents were good and the visibility was about 10-12m. Aside from the wreck itself, the marine life is amazing - we spotted giant groupers, schools of barracuda, giant trevally, massive wrasse (almost as big as a person's torso), lots of sea snakes and 2-3 turtles (though they were at the surface). The most diverse range of marine life that I've seen in a long time!
I went through the Townsville diving shop - Adrenaline Dive - as dive shops can only go out on certain days so there are not too many divers there at any one time. They are professional, run a tight ship and make sure there are extensive briefings to ensure everyone is aware of how to deal with the strong currents. It is illegal to enter the wreck - the last diver to do that was deported from Australia with a $15,000 fine!
What a chilled and relaxing 6 days. Wish I could have dived another day or two, but alas with flying I had to be careful of when my last dive was. Next time.

Oil and gas company EnQuest has taken a major step in decommissioning the Heather asset in the UK North Sea following the award of a surface removal contract.
EnQuest revealed on Friday that the Heather asset topsides removal contract had been awarded to all the seasowner and operator of what is said to be the largest and most sophisticated heavy lift construction vessel in the world, Pioneering spirit. The award follows an intensive period of evaluation, negotiation and clarification.
This contract will cover all engineering, preparation, removal and disposal of the topsides of the asset, while the removal of the Heather jacket is a separate scope, to be awarded in due course.
EnQuest will utilize the capabilities of the Pioneering Spirit’s 48,000t topside lifting system to remove the Heather topsides in a single lifting operation. Preparations will begin next year with the lift itself slated for 2025.
EnQuest filed its program to dismantle the topsides of the Heather Alpha platform with the UK authorities in April 2021. The plan was approved in July of the same year.
The Heather facility is located in block 2/5 of the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS). It is a fixed facility providing production, drilling and utility facilities. The platform was installed in 1977/78 and the first oil was produced on October 6, 1978.
The Heather field has not been in operation since the end of 2019 following a fire on the platform in which two workers were injured. The platform was to resume production in the first half of 2020.
However, EnQuest in early 2020 decided not to resume production on the platform due to a low oil price environment, which rocked the market in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Allseas also recently won a contract, which represents the UK’s largest offshore continental shelf dismantling contract to date.


This article explains how to program a garage door remote opener clicker.
Modern garage gates are designed with an advanced code system. Using the remote clicker, you can send signals for lifting and lowering.
This makes it easy to regulate such doors from the comfort of your car or home. Moreover, the rolling codes will prevent unauthorized access to your home.
Clicker Garage Door Remote Opener Programming
Did you get a new remote clicker for your parking lot gate, or did one of yours go missing? Regardless of the case, you’ll need to reset the device and start or continue using it.
Until then, let’s have a quick overhaul of this gadget.
What’s a Garage Door Clicker Remote
It’s a small handheld device that can run a garage door from a distance. The device transmits a unique code to the opening, which activates the door.
Furthermore, these devices have advanced capabilities, such as a rolling code. It enhances the door’s security by generating a new code anytime the remote is used.
Programming this device may look simple, but it’s technical. Those with little to no knowledge of the system will find it challenging.
Therefore, you’ll need to familiarize yourself with the manufacturer’s instructions on programming your type of control clicker.
While some controls will require traditional configuration, others use auto programming.
Adequate preparation also includes gathering the necessary supplies to succeed in this operation. Some tools you’ll need include a ladder, a pen and paper, and the brand and brand number of the door.
You’ll also need the clicker garage door opener remote.
Guidelines for Programing a Garage Door Remote Clicker
To efficiently configure this device, you’ll need to follow the procedures described below. Once you grasp each step, finishing the job will take a little time.
Let’s take action.
Determine the compatibility of Your Garage Door Opener.
First, you’ll need to verify the adaptability of your parking lot door with the control. You can get such information from the adaptability chart or the user’s manual.
You’ll also get a list of coding principles.
Determine the Computing Mode
Remember, these kinds of doors come in distinct brands and versions. Your device may have a different configuration mode, such as Smart/Learn, DIP Switch, or Rolling Code.
Now, revisit your compatibility chart in the clicker remote’s user guide. There you’ll find the correct computing technique to employ.
Select the Reset Button and LED.
Look for the configuration. Click and light the LED on the motor unit using your ladder.
The key is often tiny and hidden, but it can be uncovered behind or on the side of the motor unit. As for the LED, you can locate it near the setup button.
It is used to signal computing mode and success.
Input the Programing Mode
Now, you must push and let go of the “understand click.” The unit will flash or light up to signal that the computing mode is activated.
After 30 seconds, push and hold the click on the device you want to configure. Only let go of the key when the opening unit buzzes or flashes.
When this happens, release the button on the device. The opening will whirl again to signal that the configuration is successful.
Now you can test the clicker by pressing the reset key. The door will autonomously lift or lower itself. You may reiterate the process for more controls on your clicker if applicable.
Exit the Reset Mode
Once you’re done, you should exit the configuration mode on the unit. The procedure to log out varies based on the class of your device.
However, most brands typically involve pushing and rereleasing the reset button. The LED will stop flashing. It’s a signal that the opener has exited computing mode.
Common Issues with Garage Door Remote Clicker
It’s only sometimes that your configuration will turn out successfully. When you try resetting your device, and it doesn’t work, it may be due to some prevalent troubles.
For instance, if the remote clicker isn’t responding, it may have dead batteries. Therefore, you must change them and ensure the remote is within the opener’s range.
Then if the opener isn’t responding to the command, you’ll need to check if it’s connected to a power source. Also, check if the antenna is clear.
Finally, if your configuration isn’t successful, you’ll need to repeat the process multiple times. Ensure you follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Meanwhile, you must know that some contacts in the remote system may get corrupted due to factors that cause malfunctioning. In this case, you’ll need to polish those connections with a soft surface brush. That way, you’ll get them working again.
You’ll want your remote clicker to operate optimally at all times. It’s possible to achieve that. But you’ll need to imbibe an excellent level of maintenance.
You’re to replace the batteries of your remote clicker always. Next, clean the device surface with a damp and soft cloth. Lastly, store the remote clicker in a safe and dry place.
The Lifespan of a Garage Door Remote Clicker
Do you want to know how long this device should last?
On average, this remote clicker should be workable for 10 to 15 years. However, it may last longer or shorter than this year. It all depends on your level of maintenance.
Cost of Purchasing a New Garage Door Remote Clicker
Luckily, this device doesn’t cost much in the market. It’s obtainable for around $13 to $70.
However, the price may differ due to certain essential factors. They include the brand and model of the device, the location, the vendor you’re purchasing from, and more.
However, the price is only one of the significant factors when getting a new remote clicker for your parking lot gate. You’ll first need to consider its features.
Costly remote clickers often have outstanding features like indicators and several command buttons. You’ll find it easier to use such remote clickers.
Programming a garage door remote clicker is an effortless procedure. However, you can mess up the entire process if you don’t know how to go about it.
Therefore, you’ll need to follow the manufacturer’s directives and troubleshoot common reset issues with your device. That way, you can enhance the safety of your entrance, and the system operates optimally.

Hair loss is something most people hope to avoid as long as they can, but if you’re struggling with it, you’re not alone! We often think of older men when we think of hair loss, but unfortunately it affects men and women of all ages for a variety of different reasons.
Some of the many causes of hair loss (also known as alopecia) are chemotherapy, anesthesia,
scarring, diet, pregnancy or postpartum, inflammation and illness. All of these situations, along with autoimmune diseases, put significant stress on the body. This can put hair follicles into a resting state, causing hair to fall out more easily or stop growing altogether.
Traditional hair loss treatments are often expensive, dangerous, or just don’t work! Those treatments include hair transplants, steroid injections, lasers, vitamins or a medication know as Minoxidil. Minoxidil was used in the 80s as a medication for high blood pressure, but is now marketed as a hair loss treatment. It might make your hair grow, but it also has unwanted side effects and is a blood thinner, making it dangerous for some people to use.
One of the newest hair loss treatments that we’re proud to carry at The Salon Professional Academy in Rapid City, SD is Zenagen. Zenagen is made up of four main natural ingredients: Saw Palmetto, Red Clover, Aloe Leaf Juice Extract and Green Tea Leaf. These ingredients work together to target inflammation and slow down the production of DHT, a hormone responsible for most of the hair loss seen in men and women, while also promoting a healthy scalp and thicker, fuller hair.

The industry standard for quick, simple and effective machine tool performance verification.
QC20 ballbar testing offers significant performance and operational benefits.
Ballbar testing provides a simple, rapid check of a CNC machine tool's positioning performance to recognised international standards (e.g. ISO, ANSI/ASME, etc). This allows users to benchmark and track the condition of their machines, and to quickly diagnose problems that may require maintenance. It also identifies the error sources that produce them.
Regular testing of machine tools using QC20 ballbar helps to:
- ensure accurate parts, first time, from CNC machines
- reduce machine down-time, scrap and inspection costs
- demonstrate compliance with machine performance and quality management standards
- implement fact based predictive maintenance
Knowing the machine's capability before it cuts parts allows us to minimise scrap and machine downtime. That gives us high part-quality and productivity while keeping manufacturing cost down. It's what Lean Manufacturing is all about - greater customer value.
What is a QC20 ballbar?
The QC20 ballbar consists of:
- the QC20 ballbar (a very high accuracy, telescoping linear sensor with precision balls at each end)
- two precision magnetic mounts, one attached to the machine table and the other to the machine spindle or spindle housing.
In use the balls of the sensor are kinematically located in the magnetic cups. This arrangement enables the ballbar to measure minute variations in radius as the machine follows a programmed circular path around the mount on the machine table.
The Ballbar 20 software calculates the collected data's overall measurements of positioning accuracy (circularity, circular deviation) in accordance with international standards or in Renishaw's own analysis reports. This report uses a unique mathematical analysis to diagnose many additional individual machine errors from the set of linear readings. Data is displayed graphically as well as in numeric format to aid and support diagnosis.
Benefits of ballbar testing
- Bluetooth wireless technology ensures no wire handling issues, closed door operation and reduced possibility for system damage.
- Hardware and software which allows a 'partial arc' (220) test. This provides greater test flexibility:
- Improved Z axis testing (no custom fixturing required).
- Tests where axis travel is limited (typically Z axis on machining centres and X axis on lathes).
- Ability to test 3 planes from a single set up, using 'partial arc' tests for 2 of the tests and present a 'volumetric analysis'.
- Faster data reading for enhanced analysis on small test circle and high feed rates.
- Enhanced Ballbar 20 software includes features for extended testing and detailed analysis reports to diagnose machine errors.
The QC20 ballbar kit includes a 100 mm long ballbar assembly and 50, 150 and 300 mm long extension bars. By assembling the ballbar with different combinations of extension bars it is possible to carry out ballbar tests with 100, 150, 250, 300, 400, 450, 550 or 600 mm radii. With additional extensions it is possible to perform tests up to 1350 mm radius.
The ball mounts have been designed to allow the QC20 ballbar to carry out additional 220° 'partial arc' tests in planes through the centre pivot axis. This allows ballbar tests to be performed quickly in three orthogonal planes without the need to reposition the centre pivot. If carrying out 'partial arc' tests with a radius greater than 150 mm custom fixturing is required.
The ballbar calibrator enhances test analysis. It enables absolute readings for scale errors and provides a quick check that the ballbar is reading nominally correctly.
The ballbar test results can be used in the 'volumetric analysis' report function within Ballbar 20 software with the assurance that all data has been gathered around the same point.
QC20 ballbar can be used in conjunction with Ballbar Trace, a time-based software package which is free of charge to existing users. This offers greater flexibility to many new applications, including 5-axis ballbar verification (to ISO 10791-6) and static monitoring.
Find out how our customers are using our QC20 ballbar to improve their measurement process.
Making QC20 ballbar testing an integral part of machine tool healthchecks has not only helped ensure consistent part conformity, it's also given us the ability to be able to return a machine tool previously deemed unproductive to full operational service.
Using the ballbar's diagnostic software to automatically interpret results and diagnose errors also means machine operators are effectively freed from having to calculate from first principles what the data really means, where the problem lies and how it can be remedied. This helps save a lot of time in component production.

Ballbars have helped us a lot. Since we started using Renishaw QC20 ballbars, we have reduced overall scrap rates by more than thirty percent, and all of this is the result of doing preventative maintenance work. It's important to realise that the quartz is an expensive material that accounts for a significant proportion of the cost of the end products, so cost reductions mean increases in both profits and competitiveness.
We also use QC20 ballbars to analyse every piece of machinery, create reports, and divide machines into high, medium and low categories based on overall performance and efficiency. This makes it easier for us to systematically allocate work to the most appropriate machines when we receive orders, thereby increasing the overall production efficiency.

A Bonnyrigg man who had never boxed before has raised around £45,000 for charity by taking part in boxing bouts across the country.
Bobby “The Hitman” Collins (39) began his career in the sport just 18 months ago.
He said: “I basically started because of my friend Willie Quinn, the former intercontinental world champion.
“His dad was diagnosed with motor neurone disease.
“So to raise money we looked about to get celebrities to do a charity bout with Willie. But some of the money they were asking for was just crazy.
“So although I had never boxed before I said ‘why don’t I do it?’ So we fought at City Nightclub in Edinburgh and raised £3/4,000.
“Unfortunately Willie’s dad passed away. I then did a fight with Willie’s brother Thomas, which raised £2,500.”
Bobby revealed that he is very happy to take punches to help charities.
He said: “As I had never boxed it was really hard to do the training. Getting properly punched for the first time by guys who had boxed for years – it’s quite a shock to the system!
“I don’t do it for any publicity. I enjoy the training. I use a wee gym in Penicuik.
“And obviously if it helps out people then brilliant.
“It’s quite rewarding helping out people less fortunate than yourself.”
Bobby’s boxing career shows no immediate signs of slowing down.
He said: “I have lost count now of how many bouts I’ve done. It must be about eight or nine.
“After that first fight with Willie I then got invited down to Sheffield to fight Billy ‘The Hardman’ Brook. We raised about £8/9,000 for a children’s hospital down there. Then it just went on from there.
“I’m definitely going to continue. My plan is to try
and raise 100 grand before I hang up my gloves.
“I have got a fight in February in Wishaw, another kickboxing versus boxing bout. I’ve done a few of them.
“This one is against a guy called Ronnie White, who has a big following, so we hope to make a few quid for the charities.”
Bobby’s charity bouts have helped a host of good causes, including the Les Hoey Dream Maker Foundation, the Jay Johnson Fund, Motor Neurone Scotland, Sheffield Children’s Hospital and the Anthony Nolan Trust.
Bobby sometimes gets into the ring with some famous faces.
He said: “I boxed (former Hearts footballer) Jose Quitongo twice for the Dream Maker Foundation.
“I fought him at Woodburn Miner’s Club and then again in Wishaw.
“He is a really nice guy, but he can’t box. He is probably the easiest fighter I have taken on!”

Council president moves to revamp long-inactive civil rights commission
Wilmington City Council President Hanifa Shabazz announced on Thursday her intention to "reinstate and strengthen" the city's long-dormant civil rights commission.
Shabazz will propose an amendment to the city code that will require the civil rights commission to "uphold the principles" of two United Nations documents: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women.
STORY:First woman tapped to lead major Delaware law firm
STORY:Carney proposes pay raises for state workers, no tax hikes
“More than a symbolic nod or gesture, this legislation takes concrete steps to inject these important principles into the laws of our city,” Shabazz said in a statement.
The notice comes after The News Journal reported in November that the civil rights commission had been inactive for years. Like the city ethics commission, it was one of many citizen-led entities that were allowed to disappear when mayors failed to appoint new members.
Four of every 10 boards and commissions charged with overseeing and advising city government essentially do not exist, public records showed.
Staff for Mayor Mike Purzycki said at the time that his staff would review all boards and commissions to determine what vacancies need to be filled, why some haven't met in years and which should be formally dissolved.
Regarding Shabazz's ordinance, John Rago, the mayor's deputy chief of staff for policy and communications said: "We have not had the opportunity to review this proposal in its entirety, however we look forward to working with the Council President on reviving the commission and enhancing its mission.”
RELATED: 4 in 10 Wilmington boards, commissions inactive
Although Shabazz announced her intention to reinstate the civil rights commission, it is the power of the mayor to appoint members.
Shabazz intends to expand the civil rights commission's reach by having members monitor city operations, policies and programs to ensure they conform to United Nations standards.
She also wants the group to develop "human rights education programs for the city government and its residents."
“We cannot understate the importance of our role in ensuring civil and human rights and addressing discrimination in our city, and this legislation is an important step in the right direction," she said in her statement.
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted in 1948, defines a fundamental set of inalienable human rights. The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, a treaty adopted in 1979, describes what constitutes discrimination against women and outlines an agenda for national action to end discrimination.
By incorporating these principles into the city code, the council's press release said the body is showing its commitment to upholding women’s rights in Wilmington and its support of the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements.
STORY: After 10 years of problem behavior, Wilmington cop resigns
Shabazz's ordinance will be introduced at the Feb. 1 council meeting. It will likely be referred to the education, youth and families committee, which will meet on Feb. 14.
The Civil Rights Commission was created in 1985, according to News Journal archives, and for years it took on significant city matters.
In 1987, the council gave the group "wide latitude" to review, among other things, employment, affirmative action and allegations of discrimination in the operation of city programs, archives show.
Two years later, a subcommittee of the commission published a report that reviewed city hiring practices and made recommendations on how to increase minority employment.
In 1995, the group held public comment sessions to discuss the possibility of a civilian review board of the Wilmington Police Department, archives show. A measure to create that board ultimately failed in 1997.
After that, the commission fell off the public radar. City records don't even indicate when it stopped meeting.

The pavilion is designed based on a representation of urban schemata of buildings in a reverse order stretched from the ceiling to the walls and parts of the floor. The form is chosen in order to manifest the reverse process of reviving these residential areas and neighborhoods. The approach is based on not returning to the past but establishing connections between various social and local groups in order to share main problematic issues and cooperate with each other by benefiting from small successes in the augmentation of living quality.
The main interactive wall of the pavilion—considering some stories—consists of a video projection of the story and an interactive bar below. When visitors enter, according to the area touched, one of the stories is selected and played back. Meanwhile, some points will blink on the interactive bar, if the visitor touches any of them more details will be presented on the screen. Some details are also printable whenever the “print” option is available and activated.
Social, political and economic circumstances in the past four decades in Iran, the side effects of Capital Accumulation based on construction, mass sell on city spaces, uncontrolled immigration to big cities and their suburbs, along with urban plans imposed by governmental institutions without taking human and social participation into consideration in dense and deteriorating parts or historical areas of cities like Tehran has led to the major diminution of living quality and the lessening of life spaces. A major part of the regions in these cities are evacuated due to low living qualities and many of them are in danger of being destroyed and turned into commercial centers. Considering the theme of the Biennale, the focus of this work is on reviving movements and develop-based ideas in urban spaces, living areas and deteriorating residential areas in Iran’s big cities in near future. This project has tried to put an end to abrupt non-researched changes and wrong solutions to current problems. Moreover, by undertaking a futuristic and conscious approach it has been taken into consideration architectural spaces’ high quality, living standards and current social insights which might help the expansion of local people’s cooperation in the renovation of these spaces. It has been tried to revive these areas and consider avant-garde movements in the “play” realm of current life worlds in order to recognize people’s innovative ideas and connect them via NGOs and cooperative groups.

You’ve probably heard whispers about some adventurous trails being developed this spring, I’m here to confirm the whispers. Here are 5 new trails that AnnArbor.com announced this week that will be under construction starting this week:
- Northfield Township. A three-phase project, launching north of Ann Arbor, will eventually connect the elementary school to downtown Whitmore Lake along Baker Road.
- Chelsea. Three new paths will be created to connect path segments that currently exist around downtown and Pierce Lake. This includes a full-circle path around the beautiful lake.
- Dexter. Like Chelsea, Dexter is working to connect smaller bike paths to create 10-mile trail from the high school north through Hudson Mills Metropark.
- Saline to Ann Arbor. Starting at the Saline Recreation Center, this 10ft wide paved trail will cut through Pittsfield Township and stretch all the way to Ellsworth road in Ann Arbor.
- Ypsilanti. As part of the Border-to-Border project, a trail just south of Ford Lake will begin at the Wayne County border and stretch to Lakeside Park. There are plans to eventually connect the path to Lake Erie.
I’ll be excited to try out these new trails, but in the mean time, what are your favorite spots to ride in Downtown Ann Arbor? Across Washtenaw County? State-wide?

Acura will launch a new design theme when it unveils a luxury SUV on Jan. 15 at the North American International Auto Show.
Acura calls the vehicle a prototype, but the brand’s auto-show prototypes are always nearly identical to its production models. Acura is Honda’s luxury brand.
The new RDX is expected to go on sale in 2018 as a 2019 model. It was designed and developed in the U.S. and is the first production vehicle to use a design theme that debuted on Acura’s Precision concept in 2016.
The Precision concept featured a long hood, sloping roof, prominent hexagonal grille, narrow lights and sharp creases along the fenders and doors. In a brief video, the production RDX appears to share all those design elements, toned down for easy production and a mainstream audience.
The RDX will use a new architecture that Honda says it developed exclusively for Acura. That would be a significant departure for Acura, which has historically struggled for the corporate resources necessary to develop vehicles competitive with other luxury brands.
The RDX’s interior will build on the looks and features in the Precision Cockpit model Acura introduced in 2016. The Precision Cockpit featured seats similar to Acura’s NSX exotic car and a large screen mounted atop the dashboard with features controlled by a touchpad in the center console.
