Dogs can sniff out stress
4th October, 2022
Dogs are so finely tuned to our feelings, and have such a powerful sense of smell, that they can smell stress from human sweat and breath.
In a study by researchers at Queen’s University Belfast, four dogs were given samples of sweat and breath taken from participants before and after they tried to solve a difficult maths problem. The researchers only used samples where the person’s blood pressure and heart rate had increased.
The dogs were taught how to search a scent line-up and alert researchers to the correct sample. Then, in every test session, each dog was given one person’s relaxed and stressed samples, taken only four minutes apart. In more than 650 out of 700 trials, the dogs successfully identified a sample of sweat or breath from a stressed person.
It’s further evidence that dogs experience their world through smell.
“The research highlights that dogs do not need visual or audio cues to pick up on human stress,” said lead researcher Clara Wilson, a PhD student in the School of Psychology at Queen’s. “This is the first study of its kind and it provides evidence that dogs can smell stress from breath and sweat alone, which could be useful when training service dogs and therapy dogs.
“It also helps to shed more light on the human-dog relationship and adds to our understanding of how dogs may interpret and interact with human psychological states.”

He didn’t get the win.
But Mike Soroka did Calgary — and Canada — proud Friday afternoon.
The pitcher from Alberta put together one of the best opening-day performances for a Canadian in Major League Baseball history by starting the game for the Atlanta Braves and allowing no runs on four hits over six innings.
He also fanned three batters in the 1-0 loss to the host New York Mets at Citi Field.
The former Calgary West Little League and Redbirds star faced reigning National League Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom in what amounted to a thrilling pitchers’ duel.
“For me, he matched up with the game’s best right there, and it was pretty impressive on both sides,” Braves manager Brian Snitker told Atlanta Braves Radio Network host Grant McAuley.
Soroka told McAuley it was the first time he’d gotten up and down six times in a game since last season and he expects his pitch count to rise in the future. He threw 69 pitches, 48 for strikes, on Friday.
He added he was comfortable working with catcher Alex Jackson, who he has been paired with in the minors. He complimented Jackson’s work behind the plate and said they were on the same page throughout the game.
The only run plated in the contest came on Yoenis Cespedes’ seventh-inning solo home run off Braves relief pitcher Chris Martin.
Soroka, 22, became the youngest player in Braves franchise history and the youngest Canadian-born pitcher to start on opening day in MLB history.
By game’s end, he became the youngest pitcher with an outing of six-plus scoreless innings pitched on opening day since a 20-year-old Félix Hernández accomplished the feat for the Seattle Mariners in 2007.
“Mike continues to get better,” Braves outfielder Ender Inciarte told McAuley. “He looks like a veteran in the clubhouse. He’s a confident, mature guy. It’s fun to watch him pitch out there.”
Meanwhile, Soroka thanked Inciarte for his catch against the centre-field wall that appeared to take a home run away from the Mets’ J.D. Davis in the fifth inning.
“Wow … I mean that’s an Ender catch,” the pitcher told McAuley. “Talking to him before the game even, I told him, ‘We’re going to need you today’… I mean, that’s him. We’ve gotten used to that, and that was pretty special.”
In 1976, fellow Canuck Ferguson Jenkins didn’t surrender a run on three hits while striking out seven in an eight-inning effort that got him the win for the Boston Red Sox.
Five years earlier, the National Baseball Hall of Fame pitcher from Chatham-Kent, Ont., went 10 innings on opening day, allowing just one run and three hits while fanning 10 for the Chicago Cubs.
Like Jenkins on those two occasions, Soroka didn’t allow a walk.
In 2012, Ryan Dempster, of Gibsons, B.C., went nearly eight innings on opening day for the Cubs, tossing a two-hitter while allowing one run, walking just three and striking out 10.

Announcement. Xiaomi 12 Pro (Dimensity) - some more confusion - Mobile News World - Helpix
In addition to the 12S series devices, Xiaomi also introduced a smartphone called Xiaomi 12 Pro 天玑版, which translates from hieroglyphs into English as Xiaomi 12 Pro Dimensity) at the event the day before yesterday, a>.
As you might guess from the name, the smartphone runs on the Dimensity chipset. More specifically, this is the debut of the MediaTek Dimensity 9000+ chipset, which is a slightly overclocked version of the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset. No performance data yet. But in general, we are waiting in AnTuTu in the region of a million points. So yes, the performance here is flagship.
Unfortunately, Xiaomi 12 Pro Dimensity) is another marketing smartphone from the "let's confuse everything" series. Unraveling.
1. We already have a couple of twin smartphones Xiaomi 12 Pro based on Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset and Xiaomi 12S Pro based on Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset. It would be logical to assume that the newcomer should differ from them only in the chipset. But no. It has an even bigger battery, slower charging and a different set of cameras.
2. The set of cameras, as far as I can tell, is identical to that used in a smartphone Xiaomi 12S. True, there is a nuance. Xiaomi 12S (like all devices of the 12S series) was made in collaboration with Leica. Here, there is no coveted inscription on the body. So it is possible that the quality of the shooting is different. Well, we don’t know how to shoot 8K video.
Let's go through the rest of the characteristics.
Camera set - 50+13+5 MP. The main sensor is a solid Sony IMX707 with optical stabilization. The other two rear cameras are not so interesting. These are standard wide and macro. Macro, however, with autofocus. Well, the front camera seems to be identical to those used in smartphones of the 12S series, it has a resolution of 32 MP.
There is a lot of memory. 8 or 12 GB RAM. 128 or 256 GB permanent. No memory card support.
Screen - LTPO2 AMOLED with dynamically changing refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz. 6.73" (109 cm²) diagonal, 1440x3200 ultra high resolution (521 ppi).
Battery. The capacity is not bad, 5160 mAh. Wired charging is fast, although sometimes faster - 67 watts. Plus there is wireless charging. And it is also, to put it mildly, not slow - 50 W.
From sad - perhaps a fingerprint scanner hidden under the screen. Everything else is available. NFC, Wi-Fi 6, etc.
From "our" �There is no LTE band Band 20. All the rest, it seems, are in place.
Chinese prices are ¥3999 (₽35800, $611) and ¥4499 (₽40200, $688) for the 8+128 and 12+256 GB varieties, respectively.

Brenda Frese, Alyssa Thomas earn ACC Player, Coach of the Year awards
The Maryland Terrapins women's basketball team will begin their run toward an ACC title on Friday, but on Thursday, they prefaced the postseason by earning two major awards from the conference.
Head coach Brenda Frese was named the ACC's 2013 Coach of the Year on Thursday, her first such honor in her 11 years at the helm of the Terrapins. At the same time, junior forward Alyssa Thomas was named the league's Player of the Year.
Maryland enters the 2013 postseason boasting a 23-6 overall record with a 14-4 mark in the ACC. That's good enough for the #2 seed in the conference tournament, which begins Thursday in Greensboro.
Frese, who led the Terrapins to their first and only national championship in 2006, previously won the AP's National Coach of the Year award as the head coach of the Minnesota Golden Gophers.
"This is an individual award, but it's really about every person in our program," Frese said. "I couldn't be prouder of how we've fought to get better each and every day, no matter the circumstance."
Thomas, who also won this award last year, leads the ACC in rebounding, grabbing an average of 10.4 boards per game in 2012-13. She's also third in scoring with 17.7 points per game and second in assists with just over 5 per contest. She's leading the league in each of those categories during conference play and has recorded 17 double-doubles.
"To be voted this honor again is really special because there a lot of really good players in our league," Thomas said. "I just work hard every day to make my team better and be the best I can."
Maryland opens up ACC Tournament play at 6 p.m. Friday. They'll play the winner of Thursday's Georgia Tech/Wake Forest first-round game.

Community pharmacists to share best practice at NICE awards
Monday 9 May 2016
Pharmacists working with vulnerable older people across Lambeth and Southwark will be sharing their expertise at the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) Shared Learning Awards in July.
The team of community health services pharmacists have been shortlisted from more than 70 entries. They will present the findings of their project on managing older patients’ medication at the awards event.
The project looks at the support given to older patients so they take their medicines correctly and avoid being admitted to hospital. The patients seen by the team are often frail, have complex health problems and are mostly over 75 and living alone.
Lelly Oboh, consultant pharmacist, says: “We work alongside community nurses, staff from the Enhanced Rapid Response Service, GPs, hospital staff and social care teams to co-ordinate the care we provide to older people.
“When older patients are discharged from hospital they may be confused about the medicine they should be taking. We visit patients at home, assess whether they need support to take their medicines, review their medicines, and arrange for GPs to make adjustments if necessary.
“We also work with community nurses to monitor the patient so we know that the medication is working properly.
“By joining up the way we manage the medicines given to older people we can reduce the amount of tablets which patients take every day. This means that we are providing the best possible care.”

What I could not then, or now, or ever understand is the lousy treatment received by those who went off to war. I mean these were the men and women who did what their leaders asked of them and more and still were treated like crap when they got home.
After, during and between wars there is always some investigation into why health care for veterans is so crummy. Lots of reports or written. Outrage is expressed. Recommendations are passed on. Changes are made.
Come the next war its business as usual.
While Bush gets his intestines checked out and the trusted media waits breathlessly for the doctors reports, veterans just wait and wait and wait and wait...
In Seattle, folks took their feelings to the street yesterday.
Why they weren't even more angry is beyond me.
But hey, unlike most of us, at least they were out there.
The following comes from the Seattle Times.
Protesters seek better health care for veterans
By Keith Ervin
Seattle Times staff reporter
Veterans of the Iraq war marched at the head of a protest on Beacon Hill Saturday calling for an end to the war and full funding of veterans' health-care needs.
About 200 protesters chanted, "Fund the wounded, not the war!" as they walked along South Columbian Way past the Department of Veterans Affairs medical center.
The demonstration, supported by the union that represents local VA workers, drew veterans from several earlier wars. The march placed stronger emphasis on veterans' issues than did previous local protests.
VA Secretary Jim Nicholson announced his resignation earlier this month amid complaints about his agency's treatment of veterans' health complaints. The agency also was under fire for failing to correctly estimate how many vets would seek care, a large backlog in disability payments, the theft of 26 million veterans' personal data, and bonuses paid to officials responsible for a $1.3 billion budget shortfall in 2005.
Iraq veterans sued the VA last Monday, saying the agency was providing care only for a small portion of the hundreds of thousands of returning vets at risk for post-traumatic stress disorder. Chanan Suarez Diaz, president of the Seattle chapter of Iraq Veterans Against the War, said Saturday that soldiers suffering from PTSD are often told by the armed forces that they actually have personality disorders.
"Post-traumatic stress disorder is a big, very real danger, and the military is trying to curb the benefits servicemen get," said Suarez Diaz, whose tour of duty as a Navy medic in a Marine unit in Ramadi was shortened by wounds suffered from a rocket-propelled grenade attack in 2005.
"This war is for oil, at the cost of Americans' lives and innocent Iraqis' lives," Suarez Diaz said.
Evan Knappenberger, an Army intelligence analyst in Iraq, said he enlisted at the start of the war when he had "no idea what was going on." He became disillusioned when he clashed with superiors who weren't happy with his reports on civilian casualties and downplaying of armed clashes.
"I used to think it was good that we went in and deposed Saddam," Knappenberger said. "I've come to realize that nothing we've done there is good."
John Metcalf, a World War II Navy veteran, said he marched to end the war and help veterans.
The demonstration was organized by the Troops Home Now Coalition, which also held marches in January and March.

TN001 cropping photographs on the computer
Ali Lindley's talk on painting from photographs involved selecting the part of the photograph to be painted using a pair of L shaped masks made from mounting board. This requires a fairly big print especially if cropping down to a small part of the photograph. Ali also used the 'rule of thirds' to help position the cropping area to come up with a reasonable composition.
Since we are all using digital cameras it can be an advantage to do this cropping in the computer and then make a print of just the area you want.
I use a freeware program called Faststone Image Viewer (www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm) for much of my photographic work and its cropping tool is the best I have come across. It has two main advantages, the outside of the crop area can be dimmed from full brightness down to full black, I have it about half way which allows me to see the rest of the picture without being too distracted by it. The second feature is the superposition of a 'rule of thirds' grid which automatically adjusts as the cropping is changed. Click on the image to get a full size view.
The cropping can either be freehand or to a fixed ratio, a selection of ratio and sizes are built in but you can add your own which can be useful if you use a fixed selection of paper sizes.

A lavish reception held at the presidential palace has drawn outrage on social media, with thousands of users slamming the Turkish government for having a feast when poverty is on the rise across the country.
The footage of the reception showed Turkish and Iraqi officials, including President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi, having dinner accompanied by live music.
While the person who recorded the footage remains unknown, it prompted outrage as soon as it became widely shared on social media. Thousands drew attention to the tables filled with luxurious food, as well as the officials' disregard for COVID-19 measures.
Unemployment and poverty have been steadily increasing in Turkey, with reports of people committing suicide due to economic hardships and images of people searching for food from dumpsters on the streets becoming more frequent.
The government, however, has been turning a blind eye to the people's economic woes, with a ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) deputy going as far as to say that eating dry bread is suffice to say that there is no poverty and hunger.
It also brought Erdoğan's previous remarks on the issue to mind. In October, Erdoğan told a worker to enjoy a nice cup of tea as the latter complained of not being able to bring home bread. The president's words evoked the infamous quote of French ruler Marie-Antoinette von Österreich-Lothringen, who said that her people should eat cake if they can't find bread.
Also in October, the president said that a Muslim's duty is to be patient in the face of poverty.
The main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) slammed the reception held for the Iraqi PM, with CHP deputy leader Ali Öztunç saying that all the people experiencing economic hardships must watch the footage of the feast.
"The people are in need of bread, but a feast is going on in the palace," Öztunç tweeted on Dec. 19.
TBMM’de Saray sofrası ve şatafatını anlattığım günün akşamında Saray’da ki eğlence ve şatafat... Ama sanatçı bölümünü eksik söylemişim. Millet kuru ekmeğe muhtaç sarayda ise zevki sefa...— Ali Öztunç (@Ali_Oztunc) December 19, 2020
Yiyin efendiler yiyin... pic.twitter.com/oKuEtwFtkE
Social media users also likened the incident to the Ottoman Empire's "Tulip Era," the period between 1718 and 1730 that has become a term to describe mindless joy and pleasure.

EU Fails to Blame Russia for Nerve Gas Attack
Βυ Alex GORKA
EU foreign ministers have expressed solidarity with the UK but failed to take the final step. They have fallen short of offering their unanimous support for the allegations that Russia was behind the Salisbury spy poisoning. Moscow is being urged to answer London’s questions. Brussels will keep a close eye on the issue, but its statement does not accuse Moscow of guilt. No punitive measures have been agreed upon. Although Western “unity” receives its usual praise, in reality the bloc has once again been split.
Prior to that meeting, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas had called Russia “a difficult partner,” but also noted that “dialog” with Moscow ought to continue. According to him, it was up to Moscow and London to sift through the details of the evidence “bilaterally.” Greece objected to the allegations that Russia was responsible. It asked for watertight evidence. Austrian Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl stated that the accusations against Russia were premature. Vienna did not back London at the meeting. Spain’s Alfonso Dastis stressed the need for more evidence before reaching conclusions. He believes the EU should wait until the OPCW conducts a thorough examination of all elements involved.
The new Italian government wants the sanctions on Russia eased or lifted. It has economic reasons to justify such a stance.
Austria’s government strongly advocates doing away with the sanctions and launching a constructive dialog with Moscow. Spain, Greece, and Cyprus also see the sanctions on Russia as a problem.
At the same time, some EU members turned out to be more British than the British themselves. Despite not being directly involved in the dispute, Warsaw has announced its readiness to expel Russian diplomats and introduce its own sanctions against Moscow. It has deprived its own footballers of the chance to play in the World Cup games that will be held in Russia this year. That’s a move that’s unlikely to make any athletes or fans happy, but that’s what the government has done.
And the reason for such unfriendly moves? Forget about the Polish football fans and businesses that will be hurt by the sanctions. There are more important issues driving Poland’s aggression toward Russia. Warsaw wants to express its solidarity with London. It needs no evidence whatsoever to support its accusations. It does not even want to wait a couple of weeks until the OPCW finishes the investigation.
It does need evidence because the Polish government is always happy to attack Russia, whatever the pretext. But it’s far from being delighted about becoming the first member state in EU history to face sanctions in accordance with article 7.1 of the EU treaty for establishing political control of its courts and judges. There is a good chance that this spring Poland will no longer qualify as an EU member state — something never seen before in the EU’s 61-year history. Poland is the one EU member that is putting the bloc at risk of falling apart.
Add to this the problem of Hungary, another bloc member that is clashing with the European Commission on issues ranging from migration to the rule of law.
The UK gets vigorous support from outside the EU. Georgian President Giorgi Margvelashvili is calling for a common front against Russia. He wants the West to wake up to what he calls the Russian security threat. The Georgian leadership’s desire to obtain EU and NATO membership is so strong that it also needs no evidence. It is much more pro-Western than the leading European nations that have a long history of membership in the organization.
It did not take Ukraine long to unconditionally back the UK and call for a boycott of the World Cup. It is even offering its help in the investigation. Kiev is ready for anything, except rolling up its sleeves and redoubling its efforts to fight the problem of corruption and inefficiency that is turning Ukraine into a cumbersome burden for the West.
On March 19, the EU failed to blame Moscow for the spy poisoning in the UK. Nor could it reach an agreement regarding President Putin’s re-election. The EU disagreements over the Nord Stream gas pipeline project have heated up recently. Does such a thing as European unity exist? Is there a single issue the EU members see eye to eye on? If so, Russia clearly isn’t it. The EU FMs’ meeting on March 19 once again showed that “the West vs. Russia” paradigm does not exist.

There was talk of going into Brighton today, but the weather and the sheer hassle and bother of going anywhere at all put an end to that idea.
So it's gonna be a big, fat, lazy day around here.
I've been very contemplative and reflective in the past couple of weeks.
I keep returning to my childhood.
I remember so many things I might have forgotten by now if it wasn't for my ability to absorb things somewhat cinematically.
I can recall details of where I was, the decor of the room, the dust floating in the sunlight that was streaming thru the window, how tall I was in relation to someone's knee or belt buckle.
Too many things like that to get into.
I suppose I'm thru going a normal phase.
And, to tell you the truth, my present tense is informed pretty heavily by my past every day.
Always has been.
Something about remaining closely and emotionally connected to those images and sounds has always help assure me that haven't been lost to everything else I've known since.
Like I'm still here.
I'm not talking about memories of being on the road or anything even as recent as the Dr Hook days.
That all happened after the fact in the timeframe I'm referring to.
Early relationships, both personal and professional, were still not as far back in time as I mean.
I took those responsibilities on as an adult, albeit a rather childish one at times.
Made lots of mistakes, some still spookily relevant today I'm loathe to admit.
But that's not what I'm talking about.
It's the memories of that kid who was shaped by everything he saw, heard, smelled, tasted and touched that have been flooding back.
In many of the interviews I've been doing since forming the new band and hitting the road playing the Hook stuff I've used the term 'sense memory' a lot, in a effort to express what part I think the music plays in people's lives.
The smell of chicken soup takes you back to your grandmother's house.
That kind of thing.
Maybe the music is doing it to me as well.
But it's not taking me back to what I was doing at the time Hook was successful.
It's thrown me back into 'pre-quel' mode.
What came before all that.
When I look at it chronolgicallyI can see that what I'm doing now, presenting the music I used to play, in a good many instances to new audiences who never had the chance to see the original band but have always loved the music, is my 'Hook 'sequel' of sorts.
What comes next.
It's all we really have, provided tomorrow comes.
If not, start the tally! The results are in!
Yeah, YouTube is fine and everyone can watch those clips long after we're all gone.
And, by 'all' I mean Ray, Rik and me.
I've seen a few lists of previous members of Hook that include names of people I've never met.
According to a handful of revisionaries it seems anyone who ever played in a band with Ray, George or Billy down in Mississippi or Alabama are now to be considered former members of Hook even tho they never actually played in a band with that name.
As a matter of fact, one of them was offered the drumming gig before our first album was recorded and he turned it down.
So, he went from probably kicking himself to kind of being 'in the band' anyway.
It's ludicrous, really.
But, if that's how things have fallen, I'd like to offer a couple of names who were an important part of my very early musical days.
So, please welcome Rob McCloskey (bass) and Billy Sheehan (drums) to the Hallowed Halls Of Hook.
We had a band called Gretchen.
We even recorded some self penned but never released tracks.
McC is still my closest friend today, tho not geographically speaking.
He's in San Francisco, my favourite US city, but we talk all the time.
Sheehan, who I haven't seen since I was about 19, is the captain of a riverboat in New Jersey and, from what I've read, has been positively involved in the environment, focussing on the condition of the fresh flowing waters in that state.
Both of those guys, by the way, actually played with the early bar band version of Dr Hook And The Medicine Show.
McC filled in for me on bass the night I got married.
First he played at my wedding reception, then he went to the Band Box in the Tranfer Station and played the night with Ray and George.
As a bit of accurate timeline, Billy hadn't even come up from Biloxi, Mississippi yet..
On another occasion, Sheehan showed up and sat in with the three of us for a couple of songs in that same Union City club.
Given the sketchy criteria previously adopted to augment members list I would say that my mates both qualify as much, probably more than anyone else for the position of 'ex-members of Dr Hook', wouldn't you?
Like I said, my mind has been running all over the place between the years of 1952 to 1969.
Exhilerating and debilitatiing
Innocent folly and melancholy.
But very, very necessary
Trust me, the day I'm sitting in the corner, drooling and singing one line of a song over and over it's more likely to be 'The Wheels On The Bus' than Sylvia's bleeding Mother.
By the way, I have discovered a brand new love of singing that song - Sylvia, not Wheels - with the new band.
The music and the harmonies are brilliant.
It was always a solo performance for me, even with Hook.
Listen to our one and only 'live' album.
There was a bit of studio 'doctoring' done on it (how appropriate!) before it's release, but Sylvia was taken from the solo spot I always used to do in the middle of every Hook show.
It's a great song and has held up as a guitar/vocal number all the way thru Hook and into my solo career because of the compelling story it tells.
From time to time I've gotten frustrated with trying to wring every ounce of emotion out of the lyrics with no help from the swelling harmonies and heart wrenching string arrqngement of the original track, but it's all there now.
For the first time in decades.
And it's very cool to tell that story with the proper musical settng.
Even for me.
Maybe especially for me. ~

When it comes to legal matters, agreements play a crucial role in defining the rights and obligations of parties involved. From partnerships to rentals and even custody arrangements, agreements are the backbone of a smooth and lawful transaction.
The Pretrial Agreement
One such agreement that holds significant importance in the legal world is the pretrial agreement. It is a document that outlines the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties involved before the trial begins. This agreement often covers aspects like the admission of evidence, stipulations, and trial procedures.
Legality of Partnership Agreement
Partnerships are a common form of business collaboration, but their legality relies on a solid partnership agreement. This agreement outlines the rights, responsibilities, and profit-sharing arrangements between the partners. By setting clear terms, a partnership agreement ensures a fair and lawful partnership.
Bupa Agreement Hospitals
When it comes to healthcare, certain medical providers have agreements with insurance companies. Bupa agreement hospitals refer to hospitals that have entered into an agreement with Bupa, a renowned insurer. These agreements specify the services covered, payment terms, and other relevant details, ensuring seamless healthcare access for policyholders.
Pursuant to Such Agreement
The phrase “pursuant to such agreement” often crops up in legal documents and refers to actions or events that occur according to the terms of a specific agreement. For example, a contract may state that certain actions should be taken “pursuant to such agreement.” This phrase highlights the direct link between the action and the agreed-upon terms. To learn more about its usage, visit this helpful resource.
Standard Victorian Rental Agreement
For people looking to rent a property in Victoria, Australia, understanding the standard Victorian rental agreement is crucial. This agreement outlines the obligations of both landlords and tenants, including rental terms, maintenance responsibilities, and dispute resolution mechanisms. Adhering to a legally binding rental agreement ensures a harmonious landlord-tenant relationship.
Agreement of Trims
In the fashion industry, the agreement of trims refers to a document that defines the types, quantities, and quality of trims (such as buttons, zippers, and embellishments) to be used in garment production. This agreement helps maintain consistency and quality control, ensuring that the final products meet the desired standards.
Housing and Dining Agreement UMD
University of Maryland (UMD) students are familiar with the housing and dining agreement UMD. This agreement outlines the rules and regulations surrounding on-campus housing and dining services. It covers aspects like room assignments, meal plans, and community standards, ensuring a safe and conducive environment for students.
Custody Agreement in Michigan
Divorcing parents in Michigan often turn to a custody agreement to navigate the complexities of co-parenting. Such an agreement outlines the details of child custody and visitation, considering the best interests of the child. By establishing clear guidelines, a custody agreement helps avoid conflicts and ensures the well-being of the children involved.
Owners Pet Agreement
In rental properties where pets are allowed, landlords and tenants often establish an owners pet agreement. This agreement sets forth the responsibilities and rules regarding pet ownership within the rental property. It may cover topics such as pet deposits, restrictions on pet types, and regulations for pet-related damages, helping maintain a peaceful coexistence between pets and other occupants.
Pre-Lease Reservation Agreement
Securing a rental property in advance often involves a pre-lease reservation agreement. This agreement allows prospective tenants to reserve a unit before the official lease signing. It typically covers the reservation period, terms of cancellation, and any associated fees. A pre-lease reservation agreement offers peace of mind to both landlords and tenants during the rental process.

» President Michael D Higgins signs Assisted Decision-Making (Capacity) Bill 2013
President Michael D Higgins signs Assisted Decision-Making (Capacity) Bill 2013
4th January 2016
Offaly ID welcomes the historical enactment of the Assisted Decision-Making (Capacity) Bill 2013 by President Michael D Higgins at Áras an Uachtaráin on December 30th, 2015.
The Assisted Decision-Making (Capacity) Act 2015 brings about the long-awaited repeal of the Victorian-era Lunacy Regulation (Ireland) Act 1871 and the Marriage of Lunatics Act 1811.
This ground-breaking legislation will result in significant improvements in the lives of persons with intellectual disabilities as their ability to make decisions for themselves will be enshrined in law.
The new Act also removes a significant barrier to ratification of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD).
The legislation also demonstrates a seismic cultural shift away from a paternalistic and ‘best interests’ approach towards persons with intellectual disabilities to a right-based approach of choice, control and consent.

Three of Big Tech’s biggest, Facebook, Apple and Google, have joined with Microsoft, Cisco and others to add their voices to the computer and cable chorus asking the FCC not to reconsider its decision to open the entire 6 GHz band to low-power unlicensed–broadband access–devices.
NCTA Tells FCC to Reject Recon Petitions
That came in a filing at the FCC opposing the petitions for reconsideration filed by Verizon, CTIA, the Fixed Wireless Communications Coalition and The Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials-International, Inc. (APCO). (APCO withdrew that petition this week without explanation. An APCO attorney had not returned a request for comment at press time.).
Cable broadband operators have also asked the FCC to reject the petitions and proceed with freeing up all that spectrum for unlicensed Wi-Fi, which is those operators’ primary mobile broadband and home networking play.
The computer companies arge that the petitions fail to justify reconsideration of the 6 GHz order and should be dismissed for procedural defects, which in this case means repeating arguments the FCC has already considered and rejected rather than on the merits, though they argue the petitions fail on that score as well.
“Even where petitioners’ arguments are not barred by these well-established Commission rules, all fail to undermine the compelling analysis in the Commission’s 6 GHz order,” they said.
The FCC voted unanimously April 23 to allow the entire 1200 MHz of the 6 GHz band to be shared with unlicensed Wi-Fi, the FCC’s latest move in freeing up more spectrum for connecting 5G in-home devices–video streaming, video calls–and connecting IoT devices to the internet.
Broadcasters, who use the spectrum for electronic newsgathering, and utility companies, who use it for the electric grid, have gone straight to court to try and reverse the FCC decision to allow unlicensed Wi-Fi in the entire band.

But the Bush/Cheney oil boys are making their mark in history in unprecedented ways. As we look back on our recent past at an impeached president who took some nooky and a current one who invades and terrorizes, w's laundry list continues to grow and our reputation around the world continues to crumble. Yet he goes un-indicted. The teflon don, indeed.
Until 2000 I'd said that Nixon was the worst, and now we have John Dean weighing in - again - on the current administration. He of Watergate fame, and of one of the most infamous administrations in history.
And lest anyone forget, Dean authored a tome about the w administration in 2004. It's title?
"Worse than Watergate: The Secret Presidency of George W. Bush"
Read on below... (via AP)
John Dean Blasts Warrantless Eavesdropping
Watergate Figure John Dean Tells Senate Panel Warrantless
Eavesdropping Exceeds Nixon Wrongdoing
By LAURIE KELLMAN
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON Mar 31, 2006 (AP) - Nixon White House counselor
John Dean, testifying in favor of a Democratic resolution to censure
President Bush, asserted Friday that Bush's conduct in connection
with domestic spying exceeds the wrongdoing that toppled his
former boss from power.
Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, fired back by telling Democrats: "Quit
trying to score political points."
The Senate, Dean said, should censure or officially scold Bush as
proposed by Sen. Russell Feingold's resolution. But if that action
carries too much political baggage, some senatorial warning is in
order, Dean said.
"To me, this is not really and should not be a partisan question,"
Dean told the panel. "I think it's a question of institutional pride of
this body, of the Congress of the United States."
He added in prepared testimony that if Congress doesn't have
the stomach for Feingold's resolution as drafted, it should pass
some measure serving Bush a warning.
"The resolution should be amended, not defeated, because the
president needs to be reminded that separation of powers does
not mean an isolation of powers," Dean said in prepared remarks.
"He needs to be told he cannot simply ignore a law with no
Chairman Arlen Specter, R-Pa., said Feingold's resolution has
"But it provides a forum for the discussion of issues which really
ought to be considered in greater depth than they have been,"
Specter said at the session's open.
At issue is whether Bush's secretive domestic spying program
violates the 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.
Bush has said the National Security Agency's secretive
wiretapping program is aimed at finding terrorists before they
strike on American soil by tapping the phones of people making
calls overseas. He has launched a criminal investigation to find
out who leaked the program's existence to the New York
Times, saying it compromised national security.
Feingold told the panel that censure is not only an appropriate
response, but Congress' duty.
"If we in the Congress don't stand up for ourselves and the
American people, we become complicit in the lawbreaking,"
Feingold said. "The resolution of censure is the appropriate
But Hatch said that passing a censure resolution would do
more harm than good.
"Wartime is not a time to weaken the commander-in-chief,"
The title of Dean's 2004 book, "Worse Than Watergate:
The Secret Presidency of George W. Bush," made his
view of the administration clear even before the
wiretapping program became public.
After The New York Times revealed the program in
December, Dean wrote that "Bush may have outdone
Nixon" and be worthy not just of censure but impeachment.
"Nixon's illegal surveillance was limited; Bush's, it is
developing, may be extraordinarily broad in scope," Dean
wrote in a column for FindLaw.com in December.
Dean served four months in prison for his role in
Watergate, a political scandal that involved illegal
wiretapping, burglary and abuse of power aimed at Nixon
enemies. Administration officials were implicated in the
Nixon resigned Aug. 9, 1974, less than two weeks after
the House Judiciary Committee began approving three
articles of impeachment against him, charging obstruction
of justice as well as abuse of power and withholding evidence.
Dean was summoned to the hearing by Feingold, D-Wis.,
the author of a resolution to censure, or officially scold, Bush.
The measure would condemn Bush's "unlawful authorization
of wiretaps of Americans within the United State without
obtaining the court orders required" by the 1978 Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Act.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said punishing the president,
rather than making sure the FISA law has provisions to
check Bush's power, is counterproductive.
"Censure is destructive," Graham said. "Censure breaks
us apart at a time when we need to be brought together."
The only president ever censured by the Senate was
Andrew Jackson, in 1834, for removing the nation's
money from a private bank in defiance of the Whig-
The censure resolution has attracted only two co-
sponsors, Democratic Sens. Tom Harkin of Iowa
and Barbara Boxer of California. The Senate's
other 41 Democrats have distanced themselves,
many saying they want to first see the results of a
Senate Intelligence Committee investigation of
Privately, Democrats in the House and Senate
have said that embracing a censure resolution
before the facts are known would damage their
credibility this election year.
For his part, Feingold has accused those
Democrats who have not embraced his proposal

JAKARTA (19/9) - Jakarta Capital City Government issues a policy to abolish tax administration sanctions as regulated in the Decree of the Head of Board for Regional Revenue (Bapenda) of Jakarta Number 1588 of 2022 concerning the Abolishment of Regional Tax Administration Sanctions.
This incentive is part of the national economic recovery in the post-Covid19 pandemic, revenue targets acceleration, and a stimulus for taxpayers to increase awareness and compliance in regional tax payment administration.
The Head of Board for Regional Development (Bapenda) of Jakarta, Louisiana Herawati, stated that the abolishment of regional tax administration sanctions policy is valid from September 15th to December 15th 2022.
The policy for administrative sanctions abolishment in 2022 is given automatically by making adjustments in the Regional Tax Management Information System.
“We encourage all taxpayers to immediately fulfill their tax obligations by utilizing the 2022 administrative sanction abolishment policy to ease them in paying off their tax obligations as well as an effort in supporting the economic recovery in Jakarta,” said Lusiana on Wednesday (14/9).
The policy for regional tax administrative sanctions abolishment is as follows:
1) Administrative sanctions in the form of interest from a late payment of tax payable and/or time deposit that have passed due date for the following types of taxes:
2) Administrative sanctions in the form of interest as listed in the notice of local tax collection (STPD) which are not or underpaid for the following types:
3) Administrative sanctions in the form of fines from late registration for the following types:

The European Space Agency offered a preview look Thursday at its powerful Herschel, which, when launched next year, will be the largest space telescope yet put into orbit.
And, get this, it's pretty, too.
A far-infrared and sub-millimeter wavelength facility, Herschel will deepen the data being collected by the ESA's older Infrared Space Observatory, along with the U.S. Spitzer telescope, and Japan's Akari, looking at areas of the spectrum that have yet to be studied in this manner.
Infrared observations are particularly good for peering into the hearts of interstellar dust clouds and the centers of galaxies, able to tease out cool objects such as tiny stars and molecular clouds which emit little if any visible light. This will help scientists understand the process of star formation, the creation and evolution of galaxies, and possibly even provide clues about organic molecules such as those found in the atmospheres of comets.
Slated for launch in French Guiana next July, Herschel will share rocket space with a smaller cousin, Planck, which will be studying the background radiation left behind by the Big Bang, with an eye towards determining whether and how fast the universe is indeed expanding, and whether that's likely to last.
Both will ultimately reach their permanent homes at a stable orbit about 932,000 miles away from the Earth, or four times farther away than the moon at its most distant point
Science history buffs will recognize the name of William Herschel, who discovered Uranus and the existence of infrared radiation, among his other considerable achievements.

Claiming Bereavement Support
The death of a spouse or partner is a very difficult experience. This change in your life can be even harder if it means that you now have no choice but to live on a lower income. You may be entitled to claim Bereavement Support Payment to help ease some of the financial worries you may be facing and get back on your feet again.
The system of claiming bereavement benefits has changed. Previously, you were eligible to claim either Bereavement Allowance (formerly known as Widow’s Pension), Widowed Parent Allowance or Bereavement Payment. These have now been amalgamated to form the Bereavement Support Payment.
What is Bereavement Support Payment?
Bereavement Support Payment is a welfare benefit that you may be able to claim, depending on your relationship with the person who died and whether you were married or in a civil partnership or living with your partner. These benefits are available to anyone, regardless of their income level, and can even apply to those that are not working.
Which benefits and how much you qualify for will also depend on the following factors:
Basic Eligibility Criteria
- the bereavement happened on or after 6 April 2017
- you are aged over 45 but under State Pension age*
- it’s been under three months since the death
*you may be entitled to claim if you are over the State pension age if your late partner was not entitled to a State pension based on their National Insurance contributions.
How Does it Work?
The payment consists of an initial lump sum totalling £2,500 (£3,500 if you have children) and an additional 18 monthly instalments of £100.
The payments are not taxable and are disregarded in the benefit cap when calculating entitlement to means-tested benefit.
To claim Bereavement Allowance, download a BSP1 form from GOV.UK or order a form from your local Jobcentre plus. Then take the completed form to your local Jobcentre plus, or send it to:

- Job Decentralization and Residential Location
This paper addresses an old and central question in urban economics: how does the spatial distribution of employment opportunities influence residential location? Over the past fifty years, both employment and population left central cities for the suburban ring. Between 1960 and 2000, the share of metropolitan Americans who lived in the suburban ring increased from 48 to 68 percent. Over the same period, the share of metropolitan residents who worked outside the city rose from 41 percent to 58 percent. The decentralization of employment and population has led economists to ask whether workers followed jobs out to the suburbs or jobs followed workers. Answering this question is complicated by the fundamental simultaneity of the location decisions of workers and firms.
We adopt a novel approach to disentangling the causal relationship between the location of employment and population. Our main focus is on a single industry—namely, state government—whose primary location is predetermined with respect to current residential patterns. State government is concentrated in capital cities. The choice of capital city was established long before the process of suburbanization began. In many cases, core state buildings, such as the state capitol and the state supreme court, were built in the historic central business district (CBD) well over a century ago and have never been moved. As a result, state workers in capital cities are disproportionately likely to work downtown compared with other workers in the area (75.6 percent [End Page 1] versus 55.4 percent). However, state employees are also present in every major metropolitan area. State workers in noncapital cities are not much more likely than other workers in the area to work in the central city (57.9 percent versus 52.0 percent).1
If job location is an important determinant of residential location, we expect state workers in capital cities to be more likely to live in the central city relative to either state workers in other metropolitan areas or private sector workers in the capital . This set of comparisons naturally suggests a difference-indifferences estimation strategy. The first difference contrasts state workers in capital and noncapital cities to control for socioeconomic characteristics and differences in the taste for urban living that may be unique to state employees. The second difference contrasts state and nonstate workers within metropolitan areas to control for any relevant structural differences between capital and noncapital cities or their residents.
Our main empirical investigation is based on individual census records from the 1980 Integrated Public Use Microdata Series, or IPUMS (Ruggles and others 2008).2 We find that state employees in capital cities are 12 to 14 percentage points more likely than state workers elsewhere to work downtown, relative to others in their metropolitan area, and 3 to 4 points more likely to live downtown. We find no observable differences in age, gender, education level or wage rates that could account for this residential pattern. Furthermore, this residential gap is robust to controlling for the industrial distribution of state workers in capital and noncapital cities. These figures imply that adding 1,000 jobs to the typical central city would increase the number of working residents in the central city by approximately 250 people.
Similar to state capitals, other government or government-related employment is characterized by historically determined locations that are very difficult to alter. We extend our basic analysis by considering employment in defense-related industry and at the United States Postal Service. Shortly after the Second World War, Congress specified that defense contractors should locate outside of existing city centers as a countermeasure against conventional or nuclear [End Page 2] attack (O'Mara 2006). We use census data to identify workers who are likely to have been affected by this policy and demonstrate that they were significantly more likely to both work and live outside of central cities in 1980.
In prior work, we used the location of postal employment to study the role of spatial mismatch in black employment outcomes (Boustan and Margo 2009). Central to our earlier analysis is the fact that postal processing and distribution plants were located in or near central business districts before...


There are two places we can store the captured CO2: deep ocean or underground.
(1) If we sequester CO2 in deep ocean, ocean acidification and oxygen depletion will inevitably endanger the ocean ecosystem. In addition, we cannot avoid leakage from the ocean carbon reservoir.
(2) If we sequester CO2 in underground, the "leakage" of the stored CO2 will impose unanticipated burdens on our offspring. Therefore, the author asserts that sequestering CO2 underground is in essence the same as storing nuclear waste under Yucca Mountain.
I think the message from this research is:
"The carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) cannot be any way to mitigate anthropogenic climate change. Burying CO2 is just another way of hiding our mess from our children."

Summary: This is a practical application commentary of Genesis 1-2:4
The Work of Creation Genesis 1:1–2:1-3
Memory Verse: Genesis 2:3 – “ And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.”
Comments about Genesis 1:1–2:1-3. For its literary arrangement and order, the story of creation is a classic. The Divine order of the arrangement of events cannot be improved upon. No one needs to neither give in to or apologize to the evolutionists nor compromise with the theistic evolutionists concerning the Genesis account of creation. This entire study will be done from the Bible believer’s position.
I. THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE CREATION WORK 1:1-2
A. The Creation has no PRE-EXISTENCE. v. 1
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and
The word “created” means “to do or make” without any pre-existing materials: it means to make something out of nothing. The same word is used in verses 21 and 27.
PRACTICAL APPLICATION: When God did His wonderful creation work, He made all that is - out of nothing. He took nothing and then made something. Isn’t this what really happens when God makes us a new creation. In our total depravity, we are absolutely nothing, but when God saves us, we have a new creation that is in Christ Jesus. A conversion may not seem to be as radical as a creation, but it is just as much a miracle as it was when God created the Heavens and the earth. With God, who is a God of omnipotence, no miracle is either a lesser or greater challenge to Him.
The Creation was with PURPOSE. v. 1
Verses 1 and 2 denote that the creation began with a purpose. These verses describe the beginning of everything in the created realm as it was, is, or shall be. The Lord who is the creator, was also the designer. He knew what creation was to be composed of and had the omnipotence to perform it.
PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Someone asked, “Has it ever occurred to you that nothing has ever occurred to God?” This question illustrates that God is not only all powerful in His omnipotence, but is all knowing in His omniscience. Within the boundaries of His purpose, He knew just what He was going to accomplish. It is thrilling to study any facet of God’s creation and while doing so recognize the greatness of His purpose. The Lord also has great purpose for each of us. He wants to accomplish His purpose in our lives as we give attention to His Word.
C. The Creation was with POWER. v. 2 (cf. v.1)
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and
darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the
Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
The name of God used here, ELOHIM (Hebrew), describes His strength, power, and majesty. Elohim is the name of God, which supports the idea of a Triune God at work in the creation. (cf. John 1:1-3; Heb. 1:10; Col. 1:16-17). When considering God, one should be mindful that the Godhead always works in complete agreement with absolutely no contradiction and that He does it with absolute power.
Albert Einstein introduced how much power is bundled up inside the atom and expressed it with math. His theory was later proven as nuclear energy was harnessed.
