Magnetic lead screw (MLS) is the upcoming alternative technology to conventional lead screw technology in modern engineering. MLSs use the principle of magnetic levitation for achieving the linear motion of the nut by converting the rotary motion of the screw. The advantage of magnetic levitation in the MLSs eliminates the contact between the screw and the nut by resulting in zero contact force, longer life with less operational maintenance and costs. This review presents the advancements in the Magnetic lead screw technologies which elaborate the design parameters, manufacturing procedures, and areas of applications of the MLS.
Lead screw has a wide range of applications in the industrial sector ranging from conventional lathe machines, servo motors to wave energy conversion systems. The recent advancements in the lead screw technology for converting the rotary motion to linear motion and vice versa include the development of contactless Magnetic Lead Screw (MLS) technology. The construction of MLS consists of several helically cut permanent magnets (PMs) attached to the outer surface of the screw and the inner surface of the nut. The working principle utilizes the magnetic levitation in between the screw and the nut, such that due to the helical cut of the PMs the rotating motion of the screw results in achieving the lead for the nut as shown in Figure 1. The performance of the screw depends on various design parameters, methodologies, and the alignment of the magnetic field which causes the translatory motion for the nut (moving body).
The design parameters which influence the performance rate of the MLS are the Rotor Radius, Translatory Radius, Permanent Magnet Width , Permanent Magnet Thickness, Air Gap, Force Density, and Pole Pitch (Pitch between two adjacent poles) . The parameter force density defines the ratio between the thrust force on the screw to the total volume of the MLSs permanent magnets and the Rotor radius. It is a significant parameter that affects the air gap between the screw and the nut to maintain optimal magnetic flux for achieving the linear motion. Zhu et.al  mentioned a significant increase in thrust force and a decrease in force density which is observed with a change in rotor radius. The thrust force increases with an increase in magnetic thickness and width. Gao et.al showed the the usage of parallelly magnetized permanent magnets results in distortion of air-gap flux density and decrease in average thrust force and torque values, whereas the radially magnetized permanent magnets resulted in smooth air gap flux density and thrust forces . The difference between the parallelly magnetized and radially magnetized magnetic fields is shown in Figure 2.
Few more designs are shown in Figure 3 where a single helix magnetic lead screw system  is proposed for a wave energy converting system and a magnetically levitated lead screw system  is proposed to eliminate the number of magnets by using a coil in between the two adjacent magnets.
This review reports the advancements in the Magnetic lead screw technologies by highlighting the design parameters, design methodologies of various types of Magnetic lead screw mechanisms. The Magnetic Lead Screw is more advantageous compared to Conventional lead screw mechanisms for its wide range of applications which utilizes a non-contact type of actuation.

The Machu Picchu hike is one of the most famous hikes in the World for good reason. Built by the Incans before the Spanish invasion, the ancient civilisation of Machu Picchu is a true Wonder of the World.
The ruins are positioned more than 2000 metres high on the top of a lush green mountain, which is in many ways makes visiting Machu Picchu more astonishing than the remaining structures themselves. Efforts made in a Machu Picchu hike are rewarded as possibly one of the best things you will do in your lifetime.
There are a few options for completing a Machu Picchu hike. No matter how you complete yours there are some things to know beforehand.
Machu Picchu Permits
Visiting Machu Picchu is strictly limited to 2500 visitors per year. Given how enormously popular this UNESCO World Heritage Site is, you might understand the importance of purchasing a ticket in advance to avoid disappointment. There is no guarantee that you will receive a ticket if you wait until you arrive, in fact it would be quite unlikely. We recommend booking trips to Machu Picchu before departing your home country.
Tickets are approximately USD$70/adult and are purchased for either a 6am – 12 noon shift or a 12 noon – afternoon shift. Your ticket allows entrance irrespective of doing the Machu Picchu hike or catching the train to the entrance.
Machu Picchu stands on top of a mountain 2430 metres above sea level which means acclimatising to the lack of oxygen is needed.
Because the city of Cusco is above sea level this is a popular place to spend a few nights before travelling to Machu Picchu. Aguas Caliente is the closest town to Machu Picchu and also an option for spending time to acclimatise before a Machu Picchu hike.
Altitude sickness is as individual as the person. While it is said that greater levels of fitness reduce altitude sickness, in theory this makes perfect sense. But in practice a person can be considered fit but still notice altitude sickness. There are a few ways to improve the chances of avoiding altitude sickness:
- Improve levels of cardiovascular fitness before arriving in Peru. The more oxygen that the heart and lungs can take per heart beat maximises oxygen flow to muscles, which is not as easy at high altitude.
- Drink plenty of water. Water is enriched with oxygen, which is exactly what there is less of at high altitude. Drinking plenty of water improves oxygen stores within the bodies tissues.
- Acclimatise at steady increments. This is where it is valuable to spend a few days at lower altitude before your Machu Picchu hike because acclimatisation gives the body time to condition itself to the reduced oxygen levels.
- Take it slow. Rushing will use up oxygen stores in the muscles and tissues at a rate which is faster than it can receive through breathing in air. Take your time; there is no rush.
How To Get To Machu Picchu
Visiting Machu Picchu by train or bus is easy. Aguas Calientes is the closest town to Machu Picchu and there is a train station linking the two together. A train will drop you off close enough to the site to have a short hike to the ruins. Train tickets and timetables can be arranged through Peru Rail. A train from Cusco to Machu Picchu is also available through Peru Rail.
Lima to Machu Picchu can also be done by train but it is recommended instead to travel from Lima to Cusco first. This will give an opportunity to acclimatise before the hike and enjoy a highlight of Peru.
A bus to Machu Picchu is the best option for those who are not fit enough to do a Machu Picchu hike. Buses leave from Aguas Caliente and arrive up at Machu Picchu. departure is usually 5:30am from Aguas Caliente in attempts to see sunrise at Machu Picchu.
A Machu Picchu hike is part of the entire experience of getting to Machu Picchu and although a bus or train can get you close, a hike is a popular option. A Machu Picchu hike takes you on a journey up Peruvian mountains that are surrounded by lush green nature; a stunning experience within the country.
Best Time to Visit Machu Picchu
The best time of year to visit Machu Picchu is between April and October. This is when the weather is warmer, less rain is expected, and you have the best opportunity to take classic photos of this Seventh Wonder of the World like you have many times before. Although the hottest temperatures are experienced from November to March, this also brings dense rain showers. Hotter temperatures don’t necessarily equate to better weather for a Machu Picchu hike.
From June until August Machu Picchu experiences peak season. Crowds of travellers can bring long waits to view the ruins and more difficulty to move around. If you have the luxury of visiting between April – June or August – October you’ll have the best Machu Picchu hike experience.
What to Expect in a Machu Picchu Hike
A Machu Picchu hike generally takes around 3-4 days. This time frame ensures safe acclimatisation, particularly because the trail is steep; Machu Picchu is perched at the top of a mountain remember.
You can’t do a Machu Picchu hike on your own but there are countless tour companies ready to book you in. It is recommended to book in advance and we work with some of the best companies in the World (Intrepid Travel and G Adventures for example), to provide the best treks to you. Reach out through our contact page for packages.
Some of the overnight camp spots are clearly well used and quite grotty. In some places you will be perched in a tent on the edge of a narrow track with plenty of others people around. Don’t expect high end camping! You’ll need to be well prepared with warm layers, a sub zero temperature sleeping bag and quality hiking boots. Take your own snacks too.
Regardless of the camping areas needing a little love, doing a Machu Picchu hike is an experience you will never forget.
Machu Picchu With Kids
Entrance to Machu Picchu free for kids age 7 years and under. The means that Machu Picchu for kids is free. That said; if you are travelling with kids under 8 we recommend taking a bus to the site as the hike is not suitable for children of that age.
The Machu Picchu hike is step, dirty, narrow and challenging; for some of the hike an adult may need to carry exhausted children and that would be far from ideal for an adult too. The actual site of Machu Picchu is fine for children to walk and explore, but it would be very difficult to have a pram or buggy.

ANGOLA, Ind. - Facing their toughest contest of the year, the Trine University men’s soccer team gave seventh ranked Olivet College all it could handle as they fell 2-1. The loss drops the Thunder to 4-7-1 on the season and 2-4-1 in conference play.
Olivet would score quickly, netting the first goal just 41 seconds into the game.
Trine senior Andre Hilson (Bremen, Ind./Bremen) would answer back in the 19th minute. Hilson ripped a shot from nearly 35 yards out on the far right side of the field that found the left side of the net for his sixth goal of the season.
Defense would play a big role all night for both teams as they managed a combine 22 shots, but just five came on goal. Olivet would score the game-winner on a scramble in front of the net off a throw-in as the ball deflected off one Comet player right to another who was just a few feet away from the open goal.
Sophomore goalie Chris Stewart (Rochester Hills, Mich./Rochester) made a save of the night.
The goal by Hilson was the first goal allowed by Olivet in 590 minutes and 40 seconds of play over the course of nine games.
Trine will get back to work when they travel to Kalamazoo for another night game at 7:00 p.m. on October 10.

Annie Camp has been a member of the fine arts faculty since 2006. She holds a B.M. and M.M. from The Juilliard School in New York where she was a student of Leonard Rose and Lorne Munroe. She was previously cellist for LYRA String Quartet, Dal Segno Piano Trio, Da Capo String Quartet, and the all-string jazz ensemble Jazz a Cordes of New York City. Camp played with the Alabama Symphony for seven years and has performed with the Atlanta Symphony, Greenville Symphony, Atlanta Opera, Atlanta Ballet, and Atlanta Chamber Orchestra. She has performed as a soloist with Lee University Chamber Orchestra, DeKalb Community Orchestra and Rome Symphony Orchestra, and currently performs with Rome Symphony Orchestra and Chattanooga Symphony and Opera. She holds a teaching certificate from the New York School for Strings, studying with Louise Behrend, a pupil of the renowned Shinichi Suzuki. Camp implemented her own original string program in the New York Public School System through Brooklyn Conservatory of Music. She also studied techniques in implementing our current string method with one of the authors, Robert Gillespie, in a GMEA-sponsored workshop. She and her husband Will, director of instrumental programs at Darlington, have four children.
When and how did you become interested in music?
I became interested in music when I was very little. Both my parents played musical instruments. My dad is a minister by vocation but he played bassoon in the community orchestra and played his own jazz compositions on the piano every spare moment he could find, and my mom played viola. They played records and the radio constantly and talked about the different musical pieces with us kids. My mom used to play a game with me to see if I could guess the composer. Back then I really didn't know what I was doing at all! But we had fun together.
What instruments do you play and which one would you consider your favorite to play?
I play all of the string instruments and the piano but of course the cello is my absolute favorite, and it's my specialty. All of us kids—there were six of us—were required to take two years of piano lessons and then we could choose another instrument after that. My mom played in a string quartet that would come over to our house to play together and when the cellist would take her cello out of the case I was absolutely mesmerized, so naturally I chose the cello. I still remember vividly the day I was given my first cello. I thought the wood grain was so pretty and the smell of the varnish was, and still is, such a pleasant part of working with the wooden string instruments. They are all handcrafted and hand-carved, and a lot of work goes into making them. The border all around the top has a decorative inlay called purfling, which is hard to do. String instruments have been around for centuries and have a long tradition; in fact the violin can be found deep in the history of many cultures all over the world.
Did you always aspire to teach music?
I taught cello lessons when I was still in high school, and continued to teach cello lessons all through my college years as well. I didn't discover the classroom string environment until I had already graduated. I was "gigging" in New York, and a colleague, a very sweet friend of mine, kept trying to tell me about her teaching studies at the New York School for Strings, located in Hell's Kitchen at the time. I humored her and listened to her stories, but never thought much of it. She would say, "You really should check it out," but I didn't pay any attention. One day I finally heard her, and called them. I went right over and loved it, and signed up. They taught me very specific methods for teaching and gave me my first coaching classes. I sat in on many classes taught by the director of the school, Louise Behrends, who studied with none other than Shinichi Suzuki in Japan! She was a fountain of teaching knowledge. I don't even think I truly appreciated her wisdom at the time. It was during my two years studying there that I realized how much I love teaching and decided to make developing strings programs my passion. I launched two programs while in New York and then came to this area and began this one at Darlington.
What is your favorite part about teaching music?
My very favorite part about teaching music is the life-changing effect it has on a student. I really enjoy igniting a love of music and of playing music in students. Watching them grow in their appreciation is very satisfying. I feel like I make a difference in the lives of others. Music isn't just an "extra," it feeds your soul! And music isn't just for professionals, it's for everybody.
How would you describe your experience at The Juilliard School?
Juilliard was a great place. It was a real eye-opener for me as a Georgia girl to go to the Big Apple and get to rub shoulders with all of the talented young musicians that flock there. It's a huge musical scene and on any given evening there's always something happening, someone performing. Juilliard is in Lincoln Center, the heart of everything. I went to jazz clubs in the Village to hear great jazz musicians like Dizzy Gillespie, who I actually played with, Avery Fisher Hall where I experienced famous touring artists like Itzhak Perlman, saw plays on Broadway and off-Broadway, great operas at the "Met," attended Yankee games, had meals of every imaginable ethnic background, including street hot dogs—Chinatown, Little Italy, Little India, Greek food in Astoria. There was truly something for every taste, whether it was music, food, visual art, dance, or drama. The kids I went to school with at Juilliard were training to be part of the next generation of artists. It was an exciting time for me and a real privilege. I waited a lot of tables while I was there, as did many of my colleagues, and dealt with the public on a nose-to-nose level, so to speak. That certainly kept it real.
What was it like to learn from great musicians like Leonard Rose or Lorne Munroe while attending The Juilliard School?
Juilliard's faculty is a smorgasbord of great names, many of whom kept up rigorous touring schedules while still maintaining a studio at the school. They had real-life concert experience to share with us. I watched many brilliant teachers give priceless music lessons. They could hear a student play and fix things you couldn't even see. They could tell what set of muscles you were using in your bow arm, and how to warm up the sound by changing the angle of your elbow. It was humbling, and enlightening. Leonard Rose would teach with his cello in hand, and when he played a simple demonstration, that famous sound he had would flow from his cello and just melt your face. Lorne Munroe, who had 12 children by the way, had to have a house specially built for his family in Philadelphia, and they couldn't move to New York because they didn't want to leave that house—he was brilliant in the various "gold nuggets" he would come up with. You'd play for him and he wouldn't say anything for awhile and then he'd say something like, "You could fix that shift if you stop focusing on it and focus on the note before the shift and just stabilize your hand," and you'd try it and voilà, problem solved. He gave me a lot of gold nuggets that I teach from today.
What would you say to students that are interested in learning an instrument?
I encourage music students to stick with it, enjoy the ride but drive toward the horizon. In music, when you're working to master an instrument, just like any other endeavor, there are good days and bad days, but if you stay in the game, there are very rich rewards and memories to be made. I just traveled to Alpharetta this past weekend with seven eighth-graders to a GISA-sponsored string clinic. In just 24 hours, they were transformed! Those kids came back so pumped, so excited to learn more, and accomplished new levels. And so we are learning new skills and having fun getting better every week. That's what I like to see.


What we do.
Analytical & Extraction Chemistry.
Our analytical and extraction chemistry group is at the heart of what we do at Conagen. In our quest to uncover metabolic pathways in nature and to develop new natural products, reliable quantification and qualification of target molecules is paramount. The downstream processing requirements of reaction mixtures or fermentation broths are different for every product and, therefore, need to be individually optimized. We track product titer and quality at every step using the most sensitive, high-throughput analytical instruments available.
Small molecules are most often separated by simple gas chromatography or high pressure liquid chromatography and detected by flame ionization, ultraviolet/visible light absorption spectroscopy, evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD), or mass spectrometry (MS).
Larger or more complex molecules like oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, and proteins require more rigorous analytical techniques such as matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization and time-of-flight analysis (MALDI-TOF). Even larger analytes such as whole cells are analyzed and selected by various high-throughput, fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) techniques. We are always adding new analytical capabilities as the field advances and needs arise.

Juice & Shakes, an old-style shake shop, is coming to Laguna Beach. The brainchild of restaurateur and resident Chris Keller will offer shakes, cold-pressed juices and healthy meals.
Renovations are expected to be completed in June at a former Haagen-Dazs location at 154 S. Coast Highway, and the shop will open soon after, Keller said.
The idea has been in Keller’s mind for a couple of years, and when the site opened up, it was hard to resist, he said.
“I think maybe it’s the best location in Laguna Beach,” said Keller, who also owns House of Big Fish & Ice Cold Beer, K’ya Bistro and La Casa del Camino, among others.
Though Juice & Shakes will be the third in a string of juice shops to announce openings in downtown Laguna in the past year – Nekter Juice Bar is at a former Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt location at 272 Broadway, and Living Juice is to open Thursday at 384 Forest Ave. – Keller said his will be different.
“We have all these juice shops that are opening now and I’m very much a juicer myself,” said Keller, 42. “It’s something I wanted to do, but I wanted to appeal to a wider audience.”
The shop will have shakes that may appeal to kids and juice for adults, he said. There also will be food for the health-conscious, such as acai bowls, kale bowls and quinoa vegetable bowls.
It will be reminiscent of a 1950s soda fountain, with white marble countertops, frosted white globe lighting, chrome fixtures, hardwood floors, and tiled walls and ceilings.
Nekter offers juices, smoothies and acai bowls. Living Juice, sold at the Laguna Beach farmers market, took over the former Laguna Beach Dog Co. location, where it will serve bottled raw and organic juices created offsite.
Though the juice shops are within a mile or so of one another, city officials said the issue of possible saturation hasn’t been raised.
The Planning Commission approved Juice & Shakes’ conditional use permit last Wednesday. There is a 14-day appeal period that ends May 22.

While Apple’s upcoming iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models are widely-expected to receive a camera upgrade to 48 megapixels, they could still have a smaller sensor than the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, says a new rumor posted on Weibo.
The claim comes from Weibo user “Digital Chat Station,” a Weibo user responsible for multiple details about the camera technology of upcoming iPhone models.
The user claims that the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will retain the same 1/1.28-inch 48-megapixel sensor as the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
There have been reports from multiple sources, such as industry analysts Ming-Chi Kuo and Jeff Pu, that the two standard iPhone 15 models will receive a camera upgrade to 48 megapixels, which will put them on par with the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max.
According to Digital Chat Station, while the non-Pro models will be upgraded to 48 megapixels, the two standard models will continue to have a smaller stacked CMOS image sensor (CIS) than the Pro models at 1/1.5 inches.
Since the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus both sport a 12-megapixel sensor that is 1/1.9 inches in size, the standard iPhone 15 models could boast a 27% larger sensor, which, while a substantial increase, will still not be equal to the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro models.
A larger image sensor results in improved image quality, as it captures more light, leading to greater detail and less noise, this is especially true in low-light conditions, while also providing a wider dynamic range and improved color accuracy.

"I am extremely excited and very honored to have the opportunity to be mayor of Covington. I want to thank all the citizens for the overwhelming support and trust they put in me," Johnston said.
Sigman could not be reached for comment.
Both council races were tight, but the incumbents ultimately prevailed.
In the Post 2, East Ward race, incumbent Mike Whatley barely bested Ron Martin with 50.88 percent of the vote. Whatley won by 17 votes, getting 433 votes to Martin's 416. There were two write-in votes.
"Of course I would love to thank each and every one of my supporters that got out and voted today. It took every single vote to win," Whatley said.
Whatley congratulated his opponent for running "a clean and professional race."
Martin could not be reached for comment.
Incumbent Keith Dalton beat Lamar Brown in the Post 3, East Ward race by 21 votes, getting 440 votes to Brown's 419. There were two write-in votes.
"I want to thank everybody who supported and voted for me," Dalton said. "I appreciate it with all my heart. We are excited to be able to serve the citizens of Covington for four more years."
Brown also thanked his supporters.
"When I first started this journey I didn't know what to expect. As soon as I put my name out there the supporters started coming out of the woodwork. I'm overjoyed at the amount of support I received," he said.
Brown said he was discouraged by the low voter turnout of 21.4 percent.
A total of 1,364 votes were cast. Covington has 6,372 registered voters.

Before Brexit, of course, there was Grexit: the possibility, one year ago, that Greeks defying the will of E.U. bureaucrats bankers would fall right out of Europe.
Yanis Varoufakis was the finance minister of Greece’s radical left government during that heady summer of 2015. He got famous first for his flair: open shirt, shaved head, and motorcycle jacket — but then really famous for playing chicken with his nations’ creditors in Brussels and Berlin.
His line was that Greece could not and should not be forced to take on huge new loans to pay off bad old ones as a price of staying in the European Union. “Fiscal waterboarding” he called it: periods of intense austerity that crippled the Greek economy in exchange for bailout money that went to big banks.
See Varoufakis and Tsipras in Paul Mason‘s film about the Greek crisis:
Greek voters loved him, but his prime minister, Alexis Tsipras,rolled over in the crunch. Varoufakis lost his battle and gave up his ministry, but the third phase of his fame had just begun — as the exceptional political figure who could articulate in principled defeat the brutal logic of finance for finance’s sake. He is more visible than ever in politics this summer as the leading figure of the pan-European democracy movement known as “DiEM 25.”
He’s at it in the US in book form, his title drawn from the inhuman code of Athens’ ancient warfare with Sparta: “the strong do what they want,” meaning today the banks and the rich; “and the weak suffer what they must.” On the cover of his book, he adds a question mark. In the book, Varoufakis argues that the fight for the glorious European project — England’s Brexit vote against union is part of it, he says — between the spirit of democracy and the power of wealth.

This year’s American electoral shakeup sends us looking for deeper economic tremors. Unemployment is down to 4.9%, even as discouraged workers are reentering the market and the average hourly wage rose 7 cents. “More good news,” says The Atlantic.
But retail spending and consumer confidence remain low — as if the recovery were less solid than it appears.
Our guest, the journalist and reader Paul Mason, has a thought. He looks at the present Western economy — defined by global trade, bygone unions, knowledge work, and high finance, of Davos, TED Talks, and creative disruption — and finds a glitch, a transitional crisis long in arriving.
Can our global system keep going without a reworking for the Internet age? Or is Mason’s “post-capitalism” an idea whose time has come?
The Tom Frank take
In preparation for this week’s show, we spoke with Thomas Frank, author of Listen, Liberal: Or What Happened to the Party of thePeople.He points to the Clinton era as neoliberalism’s crystallizing moment:
On Sunday, 62% of Greek votes, encouraged by their radical-left prime minister, Alexis Tsipras and his Syriza party, registered a desperation “no” vote to a swap of further fiscal tightening at home for debt relief from its ...
On Sunday, 62% of Greek votes, encouraged by their radical-left prime minister, Alexis Tsipras and his Syriza party, registered a desperation “no” vote to a swap of further fiscal tightening at home for debt relief from its European creditors. The night of the vote ended in celebrations in Athens’ central Syntagma Square.
But just before showtime on Thursday night, the story shifted with a jolt: after much posturing, Tsipras and the Greek delegation capitulated to many of their creditors’ demands in hopes of staying in the Euro. Syriza’s turn from defiance to compliance may leave the millions of “no” voters — part of what our guest Richard Parker calls a global “neglectorate” — feeling more discouraged than ever before. But it remains to be seen how the Greece situation will shake out.
Mark Blyth wasn’t so convinced that what looked like a final surrender of the radical left in Greece was anything more than one more kick of the can down the road of untenable austerity economics in Europe — one headed for a ‘breakdown’:
I think I recall looking at the BBC website yesterday and happening upon a link that said, “June 23: Greeks at final last stop.” And here we are again. So a proposal has been submitted, which seems to be a bit of capitulation, but it hasn’t been accepted yet. And there has to be the other side of that trade: are they going to get anything back? Because if not, we’re simply doing a rerun of where we were before we had the referendum. And if that’s the case, then there’s going to be a breakdown. We’ve had a situation where the European Central Bank has been squeezing the Greek banks to make sure that by Friday, everyone’s sufficiently freaked out to have them sign whatever they want. But that’s exactly the type of tactics that backfired and brought 61% of people out to vote no. So I’m far from convinced that we’re at the end of the road…
It’s very similar to the Scottish independence referendum. Let me tell you why. If you break this down, the really dramatic thing is the way the different age groups voted. So I saw a poll for Greece, 12 hours before they actually took the vote. 71% of people under 35 were going to vote no. So all the older people are gonna vote yes. The exact same thing happened when they took the Scottish referendum — why? If you’re old, and you’ve got a lot of assets, you don’t want uncertainty over those assets. You don’t want your nice Euro-denominated house to suddenly be new drachmas. If, however, you’ve been through hell and back over the past five years — you’re asset-negative, you’re up to your eyes in debt, and you’re unemployed — asset uncertainty is somebody else’s problem. I’m going to vote no. You have this generational split on top of lots of different asset splits, and that’s the way this worked out.
We do know that those young Greeks are the ones want out of an economic dive as long and painful as our Great Depression. Watch the six-year change in unemployment: in America, 1929 to 1934, versus Greece, 2009 – 2015.
In March 1933, four years into the Depression, Franklin Roosevelt signed the first unemployment relief legislation through “useful public work.” No such luck in Greece: in the poorest Athenian neighborhoods, joblessness has topped 60% this year, and last year at least 1 in 10 Greek children was suffering food insecurity. Hundreds of thousands of well-educated Greeks have left the country, and the future seems to hold only more misery.
Our guest Mark Blyth declared in January that we’re watching the all-but-Homeric battle of austerity and democracy on the southern edge of the Eurozone, where deep budget cuts have become the only possible solution to economic shock. Blyth and our guest, the translator and Europe-watcher Arthur Goldhammer, are concerned about the blowback of EU overreach — not on the left but on the right:
For those who fear Syriza and its left-wing counterparts, it is worth looking at the alternatives on the radical right. From Britain to Hungary, political parties—whose ideology spans the spectrum from the explicitly Nazi (the Golden Dawn in Greece) to the nationalist–populist (the United Kingdom Independence Party and the French National Front)—are busy working to channel public anger in a different direction. Harkening back to Europe’s darkest days, they translate negotiable conflicts over economic policy into non-negotiable conflicts over ethnic identity. They attack European integration even more than the left-wing parties, question the democratic rights of existing citizens, and fan the flames of xenophobia toward ethnic minorities and immigrants. If Europe’s ruling elites want to save the European project, and the Euro at the heart of it, they need to start actively engaging with democratic left-wing parties such as Syriza and Podemos rather than shunning them. If they don’t, they will drive some of these parties into volatile left–right alliances, or, if they fail in their mandates, leave the stage open to political forces whose goals will be far more radical than mere debt restructuring and opposition to austerity.
And Richard Parker— a sage of politics at home and abroad, who once advised George Papandreou and his PASOK party — offers a diagnosis of global democracy: big, bruising institutions, public and private, have created an international “neglectorate” that’s mad as hell and in resistance. Parker hears that voice in on the left and the right, in the Greek no! and the Irish yes! to same-sex marriage, and in the rise of political outsiders sounding the alarm here in America — from Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren to Ted Cruz and Rand Paul.
The last piece of tape we have to Ingrid Rowland, an American art historian based in Rome and a prolific contributor to The New York Review of Books. She told us of a striking performance of Aeschylus’ early drama, The Suppliants, in the ancient Greek theater at Syracuse in Sicily. It seemed to speak to every corner of the European questions at issue: migration, debt, welcome and power. Here’s a trailer for that play:
Tell us: what do you make of the Greek decision to vote “no”? Were you surprised at the decision to sign on to the austerity package after all? what’s up ahead for embattled Europe? Do you feel neglected, and what referendum would you have us all vote yes/no on: bank bailouts, fossil fuels, drones, etc.?

VIDEO: Nancy Pelosi goes low — really low — with new ‘poo’ comment about Trump
As the most reliable and balanced news aggregation service on the internet, DML News App offers the following information published by NYPost.com:
A day after President Trump said she has “mental problems,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday likened the commander-in-chief to a child with “doggy doo on his shoes.”
The unusual jab escalates tension between Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Trump — after she called Trump “morbidly obese” on Monday.
The article goes on to state the following:
Pelosi launched into an extended attack on Trump at a press conference when asked about his tweet urging police to investigate the 2001 death of an intern who worked for MSNBC host Joe Scarborough, then a Florida GOP congressman.
“You’re asking me about the appropriateness of the actions of this president of the United States? So completely inappropriate in so many ways that it’s almost a given.”
“It’s like a child who comes in with mud on their pants or something — that’s the way it is, they’re outside playing,” Pelosi continued. “He comes in with doggy doo on his shoes and everybody who works with him has that on their shoes, too, for a very long time to come.”

At a US government lab in New Mexico, government scientists race to launch a one megaton nuclear weapon toward a giant asteroid, hoping the massive explosion will save the earth.
While this may sound like the plot of a Hollywood blockbuster, in fact it is the latest hi-tech computer simulation carried out by government scientists.
A team at Los Alamos National Laboratory, a United States Department of Energy facility in New Mexico, used a supercomputer to model a nuclear weapon's anti-asteroid effectiveness.
Scroll down for video
Eminent danger: Scientists are looking into ways to destroy large asteroids heading toward Earth
Massive capacity: 32,000 computers ran the program, which tested whether an atomic blast could break apart an asteroid 500m across
Researchers were told to deal with a 1,650-foot-long (500-meter) space rock using a one-megaton nuclear weapon — about 50 times more powerful than the U.S. blast inflicted on Nagasaki, Japan during World War II.
Thankfully, they say that even though it was only a virtual test, the approach was successful.
'Ultimately this one-megaton blast will disrupt all of the rocks in the rockpile of this asteroid, and if this were an Earth-crossing asteroid, would fully mitigate the hazard represented by the initial asteroid itself,' Los Alamos scientist Bob Weaver said in a recent video released by the lab.
Effectiveness: The blast in theory entered only parts of the asteroid. In actuality, a nuclear explosion would be used as a last resort
Last resort: In the 1998 film Armageddon, staring Bruce Willis, explosives had to be placed on the inside of the asteroid to dissipate it
‘If one of these objects is spotted at a distance of a few months away, there could be potentially devastation on a worldwide scale.’
The team used the labs supercomputer, which has the power of 32,000 processors found in a normal computer, to recreate as accurately as possible exactly what would happen to the asteroid should the blast hit its surface.
Luckily, the plan worked, meaning a weapon may not have to be deposited inside the asteroid as in the 1998 Bruce Willis film 'Armageddon.'
However the team stress the giant nuclear weapon was only a last resort and researchers are also investigating other methods, including using spacecraft or even the gravitational pull of planets to alter its course.

In the February issue of the U.S. Naval Institute’s magazine, Proceedings, the question was asked “What foreign invention or innovation do you think most affected the U.S. naval service?” It is a very interesting question and three inventions come to mind.
The first is the reciprocating steam engine invented by Thomas Newcomen in 1712. It turned steam into up and down motion that could be connected to a shaft. His device was improved upon by another Brit, James Watt and his version enabled factories to be located away from rivers and helped facilitate the Industrial Revolution.
Number two is the marine chronometer. Until John Harrison, another Brit, used bi-metallic strips to control a spiral spring and make the first, accurate marine chronometer in 1761, ship navigators couldn’t precisely determine longitude because there was no means to accurately measuring time over long periods. Harrison’s H4 chronometer was the first practical in terms of both size and utility. You can read more about Harrison and the marine chronometer in an earlier blog https://marcliebman.com/time-the-key-to-…mining-longitude/ .
The third is the screw propeller which has a mixed heritage, i.e. British, Czech, and Swedish and American. The concept dates back to Archimedes and what is known as the Archimedes screw. It was originally designed to move water uphill in a trough for irrigation. The first person to adapt the Archimedes screw in a vessel was David Bushnell. He used a crank to turn a small version in the first submarine called the Turtle during the American Revolution.
An American inventor by the name of John Stevens tried four bladed propellers and in 1802 but decided that paddlewheels were a safer alternative. It was not until 1827 that a Czech forester, Josef Ressel living in Austro-Hungarian Empire attached an Archimedes screw to a long shaft turned by a steam engine. It worked, but was banned by the Austro-Hungarian as dangerous.
Meanwhile, in England, Swedish inventor John Ericsson and a Brit, Francis Stevens were hard at work trying to perfect a practical screw propeller. Both patented their designs six weeks apart in 1835, with Stevens being first. The Royal Navy was not impressed with either Steven’s boat demonstrated on a canal or Ericsson’s demonstration on the River Thames.
However, U.S. Navy Captain Robert Stockton was impressed by Ericsson Francis B. Ogden. Stockton ordered a larger ship named the Robert Stockton. It sailed to the U.S. using both its steam engine/screw propeller and sails. After arriving in the U.S. and Stockton was demonstrated to the U.S. Navy, Ericsson was commissioned to design and build the U.S. Navy’s first screw propelled warship. Named the U.S.S. Princeton, and commissioned in 1843, it carried two 12-inch smooth bore cannons and 12 42-pounder carronades. Not surprising, its first commanding officer was Captain Robert Stockton.
Combined, these three inventions made trips across large lakes and oceans possible without having to depend on currents and wind. The steam engine provided power and the propeller turned it into thrust while the chronometer enabled precise navigation possible. Combined, they changed seafaring forever.

“Happy to inform that 5000 doses of AstraZeneca vaccines handed as a gift to Georgia by Austria safely landed in Tbilisi airport. Austria demonstrated true friendship and solidarity!

Maxi-scooters have been growing in popularity in recent years. Their ease of use and plentiful amenities enable riders to cover a lot of distance in comfort and style. In addition, their bodywork often comes with fairings and adjustable windscreens further adding to the stability of the ride. In the Philippines, scooters like the Yamaha NMAX and Honda PCX 150 serve as popular entry level maxi-scooters.
But what if you wanted to upgrade from the entry level market, and move into something slightly more powerful, but not as overbearing as the likes of the Yamaha TMAX? Honda may have the perfect solution to this in the form of the Forza 250. Launched in Europe and other parts of Asia, this maxi-scooter looks so much bigger than it actually is. Designed to provide maximum comfort to the rider, the Forza 250 features bodywork created to duct wind blast away from the rider. It even comes with a 180mm adjustable windscreen, which can be toggled electronically by the flip of a switch.
Powering the 2021 Honda Forza 250 is a liquid-cooled, 250cc, single-cylinder engine. It features Honda’s Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-Fi) system, and comes with a standard continuously variable transmission (CVT). Producing 21.7 horsepower, the Forza 250 makes for a confidence-inspiring ride on twisty roads and long rural highways. To top it all off, its 11.7-liter fuel tank provides adequate mileage.
The Honda Forza 250’s underpinnings consist of standard telescopic front forks, and a conventional unit swing setup at the rear. Hydraulic front and rear disc brakes with dual-channel ABS come standard, as well. At the moment, Honda doesn’t have a contender in the 200cc to 300cc class of maxi-scooters in the Philippine market. Dominated by the likes of the Yamaha XMAX and Kymco X-Town 300i, Honda stands the chance to offer more variety in the premium maxi-scooter segment with the Forza 250.


Easy indie-rock track, suitable for you. It begins with the duet of acoustic guitar and vibraphone. Then comes the bass and piano and electric guitar in the background. Then they start to sound the drums and, finally, picking up on solo guitar and sounds the whole orchestra! This music is perfect for the sound of many, many commercials, all depends on your imagination!)) Enjoy your work!


* Quarter-final tie lost when V Shem-Wee Kiong failed to get the first point
* Chong Wei continues his winning run
* Koreans whip Malaysia 3-1 in the quarter-finals
South Korea kept their rich tradition of having reached the semi-finals in every edition in the Sudirman Cup mixed team event when they eased past Malaysia 3-1 in the quarter-finals in Dongguan, China on Friday.
It was sweet revenge for the Koreans who were stunned 3-2 by the Malaysians in a preliminary Group D match on Sunday. The second seeded Koreans, however, advance to the quarter-finals with a 4-1 win over India in their second match on Wednesday.
The writing was already on the wall for Malaysia when Goh V Shem-Tan Wee Kiong failed to garner the first point in the men’s doubles and were handed a 18-21, 16-21 beating in 48 minutes.
Malaysia were hoping for the morale boosting first points from the men’s doubles but the Malaysian pair failed to reproduce their form when they stunned World No 1 pair Lee Yong-dae-Yoo Yeon-seong in the group match.
While the Koreans rode on the win in the men’s doubles, it was an uphill task from there on for Malaysia as Tee Jing Yi was no match in her women’s singles match against Sung Ji-hyung in her 17-21, 12-21 defeat in 44 minutes.
As usual it was left to former World No 1 and Malaysia’s top shuttler Datuk Lee Chong Wei inject some inspiration and he once again showed that he has not lost his touch despite laying off from competitive badminton for eight months after failing a doping test during the last World Championships in Copenhagen in August 2014.
The Sudirman Cup is his first tournament and Chong Wei is captaining the young Malaysian team to the mixed team event. Chong Wei secured Malaysia’s solitary point in the quarter-finals with a 21-17, 21-12 win over San Wan-ho in 42 minutes.
Any hopes of keeping Malaysia’s semi-final hopes alive disappeared when Commonwealth Games and SEA Games champions were beaten in the women’s doubles by Chang Ye-na-Jung Kyung Eun who came back strongly from a set down to win 21-23, 21-16, 21-17 in a 69 minute battle.
It was an improved showing by Vivian-Khe Wei who had lost to the Koreans in straight sets 22-20, 21-9 in the group match.

Surefire X300 B Ultra Weapon Light
The Surefire X300 B Weapon Light is powerful and virtually indestructible. It was primarily designed for handguns, but is also great on long guns and mounts securely to MIL-STD 1913 rail equipped rifles via the T- slot mounting system. Activating this light is done using the ambidextrous switches now wider and shorter for improved convenience at the rear of the body. Simply press the switch on either side for momentary on activation or flip up or down for constant-on activation.
The SureFire X300U-B can be securely attached to a handgun or a long gun via its new mounting system which incorporates a tightening screw and a T slot mounting rail. crossbar wedges are included for Universal and Picatinny rails. Its high strength aerospace aluminum body including the mounting system is Mil Spec hard anodized for superior toughness and its O ring and gasket sealed to keep out dust and moisture.
FITS:The new T slot mounting system fits most railed handguns (and rail equipped long guns) but adapter mounts are available for some non-railed handguns.

If your smartphone is from China, ‘Phone Commerce’ is most common through the messaging app. It is home to Huawei, Alibaba, Baidu, Tencent and Shiomi, and is also home to huge investments in AI, 5G, self-driving cars, robotics, electric vehicles and even Mars. Here are some ways in which rising high-tech China is at the forefront of the rest of the world.
1. A ‘Super-App’
The population of China is 1.4 billion. Of these, 1.1 billion are using WeChat. Take a moment. Globally, Facebook has 2.4 billion users. WhatsApp has 300 million. In China, WeChat (called vixen in Mandarin, which translates as ‘micro-message’) – especially the tech giant (and the world’s fifth largest) is the Tencent-owned messaging service – how people interact… with everything and everyone.
Along with social media, WeChat serves as a mobile payment app, scanning the QR code in the app to make transactions with all retailers – including buses and metros in China. It can be used to book flights and hotels as easily as buying food from a supermarket or street vendor. WeChat balance is now the primary way to pay and receive money in China. Who needs banks?
It has a rival – Alibaba’s Alipay – but with 79% of the market penetrating in China, WeChat is known as China’s ‘digital life force’ but has failed to gain popularity worldwide. It seems to be the fifth most-used app in the world after Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger… but it’s ahead of all that can be done.
China is moving fast. We have all heard stories of how fast its construction companies are working, especially in the building of a 57-storey skyscraper in 19 working days. But these are China’s other mega-tech projects. Take its bullet trains. Japan is still considered the home of the bullet train with its famous shinkansen, but for the past 15 years the Chinese Railway has built a much wider network of high-speed (CRH) and made its own fixing-class bullet trains.
Now the world’s longest high-speed railway network, China’s bullet trains travel between 155–217 mph. Land at Shanghai’s Pudong Airport and you can also sample the future of the ultra-high-speed trail in Shanghai Maglev, a magnetic levitation train that reaches 267 mph.
There are plenty of other megatech projects in China. There is the Three Gorges Dam, a hydroelectric gravity dam that stretches into the Yangtze River and is the world’s largest power station. The Aizai suspension bridge, the world’s tallest and longest suspension bridge and the 16-mile Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao bridge, makes land on two artificial islands. Don’t forget the Shanghai Tower and the world’s largest single dish radio telescope (fast) at 2,073 feet.
What’s more, China’s ‘Belt and Road’ initiative is looking at investing $ 6 trillion in major construction projects such as highways, ports and airports in its neighboring countries.
3. 5G networks and AI
How does 5G work for you so far? After the advertising buzz around 2019 around various network launches, the fuss has subsided. Why? There is really no 5G in the UK and US outside city centers, that is why. Cue China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom have come up with plans to offer high-speed connectivity.
No wonder, China has one of the largest 5G deployments in the world. 5G is already available in 50 cities in China and 130,000 5G base stations are going live. What’s more, China also accounts for two-thirds of global investment into Artificial Intelligence (AI), recently replaced by the US. When it comes to cutting-edge technology, it’s all about China.
4. Dockless bike sharing
ike sharing schemes are now available in thousands of cities around the world. You get the app, sign up, pick up a bike from the rack, use it and give it back. Easy. So why is China going the more high-tech route?
Dockless Bike hire has the latest craze, which eliminates the need for a physical central hub and instead uses virtual mapping, Bluetooth and GPS driven geofencing to find out where they are. Mobike in Shanghai – which has about 1.5 million dockless bikes – has an app that tells riders where they can and can’t park their bikes with them. If they leave them in random places, the bike will be alarmed and they will receive a text message alert. The spread of 5G will only help such schemes.
5. Electric vehicles
Nobody says China is an environmentally friendly country. It has a bad reputation for pollution and it uses half of the world’s concrete. However, it is already the largest market for battery powered cars in the world, the largest manufacturer and buyer of electric vehicles.
It makes almost all electric buses in the world. In short, the electric vehicle revolution is already underway, and China is owning it. Your first electric car? It could possibly be from China.
6. A prestigious space program
hina now launches more rockets every year than any other country, and although the Western media routinely dismisses it, the China National Space Administration (CNSA) – China’s NASA – is definitely going places.
It does not have NASA’s budget, but in 2019 it landed a spacecraft and lunar rover on the far side of the moon, with excellent scientific returns. Not even NASA does that. If all goes to plan in 2020, the CNSA will scoop-up its Chang-5 mission some moon rock and launch it back to Earth. Then it will launch a new space station. Finally, it sends its hooking mission to Mars.
What’s more, all this is happening with the huge space rockets designed and built in China alone. When it comes to technology, China is ahead of most of the world.
