In Grade 11, we studied the motion of objects in free fall and saw that such an object has a constant gravitational acceleration of g. We now study the motion of objects that are moving upwards or downwards while experiencing a force due to gravity. We call this projectile motion. We will only consider the case where objects move vertically upwards and/or downwards – meaning that there is no horizontal displacement of the object, only vertical displacement. When we talk about a projectile we mean a body or particle that is project or launched and then moves under the inﬂuence of only gravity.
We know from Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation that an object in the Earth’s gravitational ﬁeld experiences a force pulling it towards the centre of the Earth. If this is the only force acting on the object then the object will accelerate towards the centre of the Earth. A person standing on the Earth’s surface will interpret this acceleration as objects always falling downwards. In Grade 11, we showed that the value of the acceleration due to gravity can be treated as a having a constant magnitude of g = 9,8 m.s-2
In reality, if you go very far away from the Earth’s surface, the magnitude of g would change, but, for everyday problems, we can safely treat it as constant. We also ignore any effects that air resistance (drag) might have.
This means that if an object is moving upwards with some initial velocity in the vertical direction, the magnitude of the velocity in the vertical direction decreases until it stops (v = 0 m.s-1 ) for an instant. The point at which the velocity is reduced to zero corresponds with the maximum height, hmax , that the object reaches. After this, the object starts to fall. It is very important to remember that the acceleration is constant but the velocity vector has changed in magnitude and direction. At the maximum height where the velocity is zero the acceleration is still .
Consider an object thrown upwards from a vertical height h. We have said that the object will travel upwards with decreasing vertical velocity until it stops, and then starts moving vertically downwards. The time that it takes for the object to fall back down to height hi is the same as the time taken for the object to reach its maximum height from height hi. This is known as time symmetry. This is a consequence of the uniform acceleration the projectile experiences. This has two implications for projectiles that pass through a point on both the upward and downward part of their motion when in free-fall:
time symmetry: the time intervals during the upward motion and the downward motion are the same, for example it will take the same time to rise from initial position to maximum height as it will to drop back to the initial position. This applies to any point as shown by the pink dot in Figure 3.2. The time interval between the projectile passing the point and being at maximum height is the same, t.
magnitude of velocity: the magnitude of the velocity at the same point on the upward and downward motion will be the same, the direction will be reversed, as indicated by the shaded region in Figure 3.2.
This is very useful when solving problems because if you have any information about the upward motion you can learn something about the downward motion as well and vice versa.
1. Work with a friend. Copy the table below into your workbook.
2. Clamp the timer to the table to allow the tape to fall through the staples on the timer such that the ticker tape will be perpendicular to the ﬂoor. Plug in the timer.
3. Thread a piece of ticker tape through the staples. Make sure the tape is under the carbon disc. The length of the tape should be the distance from the timer to the ﬂoor.
4. Using masking tape attach a 100 g mass to the end of the tape closest to the ﬂoor.
5. Position the foam cushion directly below the mass. (The cushion will protect your masses and your ﬂoor)
6. Hold the tape so that it is vertical and will easily pass through the staples.
7. Turn on the timer.
8. Let go of the tape with the mass, allowing it to drop to the ﬂoor.
9. Turn off the timer.
11. Take each tape and ﬁnd the ﬁrst clear dot nearest the mass end of the tape. Circle this ﬁrst clear dot and label it as zero. Then count ﬁve dots and label the ﬁfth dot as number 1. Count another 5 dots and label the ﬁfth dot number 2. Continue this procedure.
12. On each piece of tape, measure the distance between successive dots. Note these distances in the table below.
13. Use the frequency of the ticker timer to work out the time intervals between successive dots. Note these times in the table below.
14. Work out the average of the two distance values between successive numbered dots.
15. The time interval between two dots is 0,02 s so the time between numbered dots is 0,1 s.
16. Use the average distance between numbered dots and the known time interval to calculate velocity.
17. Use the magnitude of the velocity and time values to plot a graph of “Velocity vs Time” onto graph paper. Stick the graph paper into your workbook.
18. Draw the best straight line through your data points.
19. Determine the slope of the straight line. This is the magnitude of the acceleration.

American Airlines flight AA1497 was diverted to Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport (AMA) on January 3rd after a seemingly intoxicated passenger repeatedly punched a flight attendant. The belligerent passenger had to be restricted by passengers and flight crew as the plane had to make a stop other than its intended destination, Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN).
ABC News is reporting that Keith Edward Fagiana is charged with interfering with a flight crew. He admitted to drinking Captain Morgan at several Las Vegas bars, but did not remember punching the flight attendant when questioned by the FBI upon landing. The male flight attendant told the FBI that another passenger complained Fagiana was “violently kicking” their seat. The flight attendant asked Fagiana to stop and instead of complying, he punched him four times.
Other passengers assisted with getting Fagiana into flex cuffs. Once taken into custody, he complained that the flex cuffs were hurting him. Police swapped them for regular handcuffs, but not before he kicked an airport police officer in the groin and spit on others. Bizarrely, he admitted that he fought the officers because he did not want to be arrested. After he was deplaned, the flight proceeded to Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN).
There must be something in the air this week as I wrote about a teenager who assaulted a family member on an Air Canada flight yesterday (more here).
Anthony’s Take: This year is off to a seemingly more violent start in the air. People need to settle down and watch a movie or the clouds go by instead of freaking out on planes.

Hey all! I just wanted to pop in a give you a quick recap of my recent girls trip to NYC! About a month ago my mom, younger sister and I took a girls trip to The Big Apple! Since flights can be kind of pricey we decided to drive. Let me just tell you it's amazing the amount of work you can get done while confined in a car for 9 hours with no distractions.
Any who! I think we pretty much covered the entire burrow of Manhattan plus more! It took weeks for my feet to recover from blisters. (Note to self: next time pack comfier shoes). We saw the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, visited the 911 Memorial and Freedom Tower, saw the view from atop the Empire State Building, caught an evening showing of The Lion King on Broadway, ate at plenty of quaint NYC restaurants, made a pit stop at Carlos' Bakery (NYC), took a stroll through central park, hit the Museum of Modern Art (so I could get my Warhol fix) and of course did lots of shopping!
It was so nice to get away and refresh for a couple of days. Between working full-time, Ivory House and grad school my schedule tends to be lacking for free time! So this was a much needed trip away!
Next time I hope to take my husband back so we can tour Madison Square Garden and possibly ice skate at Rockefeller Center!
Have you ever been to NYC? What were your favorite attractions, restaurants or other must see spots?

May 29, 2008 – Investments to tool up semiconductor fabs will be down about -17% this year (a mild downgrade from earlier projections of -15%), but look for a rebound of +12% growth in 2009 as postponed fab projects come back into focus, according to data from SEMI’s World Fab Forecast.
Samsung, the Toshiba/SanDisk “Flash Alliance” JV, and Intel are seen as the biggest capex spenders in 2008. Most are investing overseas, though a big chunk of Samsung’s spending is going to its Austin, TX facility, while Intel is upgrading its fabs in Arizona and New Mexico.
In 2009, look for more spending from those three companies, as well as major projects from Rexchip, TSMC and UMC, Promos, and Hynix.
Geographically, worst hit regions for fab investment declines are Southeast Asia (-40%) and Taiwan (-33%), though each also will enjoy a resulting surge in 2009 (50% and 80%, respectively). Spending in the Americas is seen declining both this year and next, while China and Europe/Mideast are seen growing both years. Spending in Japan and South Korea is seen as slow but improving, from negative double-digits in 2008 to negative single-digits in 2009.
In terms of fab construction, look for increases in Southeast Asia (+160%, mainly due to IM Flash’s planned megafab in Singapore), and also in South Korea
Meanwhile, while spending and construction are down, global fab capacity should eke out slight growth in 2008 (after a +17% jump in 2007) and in 2009, in the high single to low double-digit range. Look for the long-awaited crossover of 200mm vs. 300mm capacity in 3Q08, SEMI says.

LONDON — The way the Women’s World Cup final played out a year ago in Germany was exactly as the U.S. women’s soccer team wins games: a second-half equalizer, a goal in extra time, then a massive celebration.
But the celebration back then was for the Japanese, upstarts in the sport who thrust themselves into international prominence by stunning the Americans in the game’s waning moments. as time seemed to be ticking away. It is a loss that has colored the London Olympics for the American women, even as they arrived in London for the first time in advance of Thursday night’s gold medal game against those very same Japanese.
“First couple days, as we were waking up after that tough loss, you think to yourself, ‘Was that real?’ ” star forward Abby Wambach said. “‘Did that just happen?’”
Indeed, it did, and the particulars of that game — in the midst of what has been a rough-and-tumble tournament — have hovered over this tournament for the Americans. Wambach initially said she had nightmares about it. Immediately after the Americans’ narrow semifinal win over Canada, midfielder Carli Lloyd used the words “revenge” and “redemption” in close proximity.
“Sometimes I just go back and think, ‘How did that happen?’ ” forward Megan Rapinoe said. “We want to kind of right that. We feel like we should’ve won that game. Feel like we could’ve, and we kind of let it go at the end, and we don’t want to have that happen again.”
In the World Cup final in Frankfurt, the Americans were tied with the Japanese 1-1 after regulation. In the 104th minute, Wambach put the United States on top, and the mission was simply to hold on.
But the Americans couldn’t. In the 117th minute — essentially, with three minutes left in extra time — Homare Sawa tied the score again. So the Women’s World Cup, which the United States hadn’t won since its seminal victory in 1999, went to penalty kicks. Wambach was the only one of four American shooters to convert her chance. The Japanese converted three. And the United States had a loss on which to stew.
There will be, though, a lack of anger translated onto the pitch Thursday at Wembley Stadium, where more than 80,000 fans are expected. The Americans — who played games in Glasgow, Scotland; and Manchester and Newcastle, England, before arriving in London — seem to genuinely like the Japanese. That’s something of an oddity given that this Olympic tournament has been marked by a bit of violence, first when Colombia’s Lady Andrade sucker-punched Wambach in the eye — a move that resulted in a two-game suspension for Andrade — and then when Canadian forward Melissa Tancredi stepped on Lloyd’s head as she lay on the ground in the semifinals.
Asked Wednesday if, after she watched film, she believed Tancredi’s move to be deliberate, Lloyd replied, “Yes.”
Japan is known for a controlled, possession-oriented style of play. When players from both teams appeared before the media Wednesday, they posed for photos with their arms around each other — one American, then a Japanese, then an American, back and forth.
“I can almost guarantee none of that will happen tomorrow,” Wambach said.
What Wambach can’t guarantee: that the United States will handle Japan without any theatrics. The Americans began this tournament by conceding the first two goals against France before reeling off four straight in that game — and 10 straight in the tournament — en route to four consecutive victories. They then allowed Canada to take the lead once, twice and three times, each time figuring out a way to tie the score and eventually using Alex Morgan’s goal at the last possible moment — in injury time at the end of overtime, the 123rd minute — to push their way into the gold-medal game.
“I want the drama to be over,” veteran defender Christie Rampone said. “I want it to be exciting, but not that exciting.”
The United States, though, believes some of those scares have helped, even as they go all the way back to the loss to Japan a year ago. Back then, Morgan was just a part-time player. Now, she trails only Wambach in goals scored in this tournament. In three matches against Japan this year, the Americans have a 1-0 loss, a 1-1 tie and a 4-1 win. It might be convenient spin in the hours prior to another championship match, but the Americans believe they are better because of the path that led here.
“This team has something inside of it,” Wambach said. “The young players learned a lot from that loss. I think the older players gained a lot of respect from the young players. Because guess what? We need everybody. The older players aren’t the ones that are carrying this team right now. It’s Alex Morgan. It’s Megan Rapinoe. Players that you maybe never heard of over a year ago.”
Thursday night comes their latest chance to be heard.
“Hopefully,” Wambach said, “people will become legends tomorrow night.”

ATHENS — Georgia football senior receiver Terry Godwin looks to be slipping from the “questionable” to “doubtful” category for Saturday’s season-opening game against Austin Peay.
Coach Kirby Smart revealed following Tuesday’s practice that Godwin was held out on account of a calf strain, and injury that is best treated with rest.
It’s a reminder of how finely tuned explosive athletes like Godwin are, as one injury can easily have an affect or complicate another, as seems to be the case in this instance.
RELATED: Georgia senior Terry Godwin represents high standard of leadership
The No. 3-ranked Bulldogs are a prohibitive favorite over the FCS-level Governors, so conventional wisdom would suggest Georgia would want to rest Godwin to ensure he’s as close to 100 percent as possible for the Sept. 8 showdown at South Carolina.
“We think he’s close, [but] he’s come back twice and it’s just bothering him,” said Smart, who revealed before the start of fall drills that Godwin would be out on account of a knee injury. “It’s not really his [knee] injury as much as it is the ret of his body around it.
“He’s dealing with a cal strain right now, it’s not his knee. Every time he comes back, he’s just struggling with other things.”
Godwin is the Bulldogs’ leading returning receiver, having made 38 catches for 639 yards and 6 touchdowns last season, and he provides a leadership element Smart covets.
Georgia receivers Kearis Jackson (hamstring) and Jayson Stanley (quad) were also mentioned as questionable for the Bulldogs opener at Sanford Stadium.
Smart ruled out defensive back Tyrque McGhee, who suffered a broken bone in his foot in the first scrimmage.

|Title||"Modernising" away gender pay inequality? Some evidence from the local government sector on using job evaluation|
Purpose – This paper aims to focus on the use of job evaluation used as a mechanism to increase gender pay equality, drawing on data from the UK local government sector.
Design/methodology/approach – Several research methods are used to collect data, including requesting information from local councils using the Freedom of Information Act, 2000, together with document analyses and interview data.
Findings – While the paper questions the effectiveness of job evaluation in achieving pay equality objectives, within a pay and labour market that tends to favour male-dominated jobs, it nevertheless finds some pay improvements for women resulting from job-evaluated pay system changes and suggests the use of pay progression systems could lead to further pay advancements for women.
Research limitations/implications – This research has a number of limitations and further inquiries are needed to assess the impact of the slow progress of pay and grading reviews within local government. Methodologically isolating the effect of job evaluation from that of the other pay determination factors presents a significant challenge.
Originality/value – Focuses on the implementation in the local government sector of the 1997 single status agreement (SSA), which has been very slow. While overall funding and resources to implement the agreement have been low, there are, it is argued in this paper, other issues, centering on assumptions about job evaluation and its use to reduce gender pay inequality, which contribute to implementation difficulties.

Faced with the need to find out the magnitude of the voltage on a section of an electrical circuit, many are wondering: how to connect a voltmeter? It's very simple, but you need to know a few simple rules.
Digital voltmeter circuit.
This device belongs to the measuring. It is used to read, measure voltage and electromotive force in electrical networks. It is connected in parallel with the load or power source.
Main characteristics of the device
Correctly connect a voltmeter will help knowledge of its structure and principles of operation. The type of conventional portable voltmeter is known to everyone. This is a rectangular box with a frontal screen, levers, buttons and connectors for contacts. It is equipped with a handle on which it can be put in a raised position, it also serves to carry it. There are also very compact options, similar to an ammeter. It's just a little box with terminals and a scale with an arrow.
Some devices similar to an ammeter can be distinguished by the sign V on the display. In schemes, he is depicted in the same letter, but in a circle. Just like the first, at one end there is a “+” sign. It must be connected to the positive end of the source, that is, to a point with a positive value of the circuit. Otherwise, the pointer will point in the opposite direction.
Table of characteristics of a digital voltmeter.
The greater the resistance inside the device, the better, because in this case the resistance has the least effect on the object of measurement, therefore its readings are more accurate and the range of application is wider.
There are quite a number of modifications:
- according to the principle of operation (electromechanical, static, electronic);
- by purpose (pulsed, DC / AC, phase-sensitive, selective, universal);
- stationary, shield, portable.
A more technical definition of a voltmeter sounds like this: a galvanometer with high sensitivity, considerable resistance, equipped with a display, which displays indicators of potential difference, or an electrical excitatory indicator in volts.Back to table of contents
The principle of operation of the voltmeter
It measures the various values of the current flowing through the device. The principle of operation is the same for all devices, and the design can be very diverse.
Wiring diagram of a voltmeter with a pulse stabilizer.
Some such devices of outdated production consist of a coil of thin wire; it is located between the ends of a magnet in the shape of a horseshoe with an iron arrow that moves on an axis. Current flows in this coil. The magnetized pointer moves on the current: the stronger it is, the greater its deviation (that is, the greater the potential difference between the ends of the coil wire).
Some do not have magnets, the current passes through the coil, taking in a thin metal tube, in other words, the cylinder of metal, located on the axis, moves relative to the coil.
In devices designed for alternating current, the current is passed through a specially installed wire, which causes it to heat up, thereby changing its size, which the indicator displays.
When measuring, it is necessary to take into account the resistance during heating and to calculate the correction, therefore, the design of some devices is already done in such a way as to measure with the amendment.
Back to table of contents
Connecting a voltmeter to the circuit: recommendations
The first thing you need to know: if you turn on the device in a chain in a sequential way, it can fail.
Parallel connection is used because it reduces the current.
Connection diagram of the voltmeter to the circuit.
The voltmeter is connected in such a way that its powerful resistance does not change the measurement results. With a serial connection, the current capacity in the circuit will be minimal.
Correctly the device is connected to the circuit parallel to its part: it does not affect the flow of currents, therefore, the resistance is necessary large. Do not confuse a voltmeter with an ammeter, which is connected in series, because there should be a minimum resistance in it.
The current that flows through the device is much less than that flowing through the test area of the circuit. There are no influencing forces inside it. The difference of the ends of the terminals is the same with the voltage, because it measures it.
Connecting the device looks like this. To measure the voltage, which is between the two selected points in the electrical circuit, it simply needs to be connected to them so that such a connection is parallel to the power source. A voltmeter has virtually no effect on the current, due to its passage through itself, since it is created specifically for this with considerable resistance. Therefore, it does not cause any loss of energy.
In order to extend the range of measurements consistently to the winding of the device, an additional resistor is mounted. In this case, only a part of the measured current goes to the meter, it is proportional to the resistance of the device. With a known resistor resistance of a voltmeter, a voltage indicator is determined.
Such a resistor is built into the device, it is simultaneously used to reduce the influence of medium temperatures on the voltmeter. To do this, it is made of a material with a low temperature coefficient, its resistance is less than that in a coil, and therefore the total resistance of the device is almost independent of temperature.Back to table of contents
Voltmeter for a regular car
To measure the current in the automotive network will help voltmeter. How to connect it, every driver must know. For a machine with a computer on board, this is not a problem, since the computer will show the voltage of the on-board network, but there are many cars without a computer that have to use a voltmeter.
The whole body of the car is a "minus", so the negative pole is connected to it, that is, at any point it is "mass". The positive terminal from the voltmeter is connected to the positive of the generator: they immediately recognize the voltage they produce, as a rule, it is 14 volts. Plugged wires are recommended to choose thicker, it will reduce errors in measurements. If the device does not have a fuse, it should be installed in the circuit. Regarding the voltage in the onboard network, we recall that it should be greater than on the battery terminals.
When working with electricity, you must adhere to safety rules: do not touch bare wires, use rubber gloves and other means of protection.

Spoiler alert:Spoilers ahead"hurry upNow in theaters.
- Do you believe in ghosts? asked Agent Monica Fuentes (Eva Mendes) at the end of Fast Five in 2011. I just introduced Agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) and a surveillance photo of Letty (Michelle Rodriguez), who was presumed dead after a horrific accident in 2009's fourth film, The Fast and the Furious.
In the end credits, the Fast franchise has established that if you can't see a body, no one is really dead.
(In fact, Rodriguez recently revealed that she didn't know about the third-act plot twist until she saw Fast Five in theaters. She said in February"Fast X" trailer released.incident, explaining that he called producers and starswine dieselInstantly. "Can I just go to the movies and find out, Wen?" she asked him. )
Fast X, directed by Louis Leterrier, has promised to be the biggest installment yet, with a cast that includes Fast Family members Diesel, Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, John Cena, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Tyrese Gibson, Sung Kang, Scott Eastwood and Nathalie. Emanuel joins Jason Statham, Helen Mirren and Charlize Theron as the supervillain Codex.
Newcomers to the action-packed stage include Alan Richson (Ames, the agency's no-nonsense new boss who sees "family" as just "car cult"), Brie Larson (Tess, Kurt Russell's headstrong daughter, Mr. Nobody), Rita Moreno (as Dom's grandmother Abuelita Toretto) and Daniela Melchior (Isabel, a street racer with ties to her family). Jason Momoa stars as the film's main villain, Dante, who takes revenge on Dom and his family over two and a half hours.
So now that we've got the background, who's resurrecting "Fast X"?
[This is your final spoiler alert...]
Get ready for Fast Fam, as "Fast X" returns not once but twice, featuring Hobbs and Dwayne Johnson, andGal GadotGiselle.
In an action-packed chase scene, Dom escapes Dante's final trap (two large remotes threatening to crush him and his son, Brian Jr. (Leo Abelo Perry), using NO to steer/pilot his The car leaves the dam and enters the waters below, the villain detonates a series of bombs, and the film cuts to black.
Letty and Cipher follow, wandering the icy landscape after escaping from a maximum security prison in Antarctica. They crossed the ridge when suddenly a large submarine surfaced. Who should climb out of the hatch to save her? Giselle.
"You still think my plan is terrible," Cipher broke down, and Letty looked confused.
Before becoming Wonder Woman, Gadot made her big-screen debut in the fourth Fast & Furious movie, in which she played Gisele, an intelligence operative and weapons specialist who has become an integral part of the Sun racing family. When the character died in 2013 in Fast & Furious 6, when the crew fell off a cliff while trying to shoot down the plane, his time in the high-octane franchise seemed to be over.
Most Fast fans will be quick to point out that Gisele's beloved Han (Kang) had a near-death experience in the latest 2021 installment of F9: The Fast Saga. So with the third resurrection, the series officially kicked off.
It also raises the question of whether Han knew Giselle was alive all along. Only time and the next movie will tell.
Also, with Letty and Cipher striking a truce at Fast X, does Gisele's reappearance bring things closer to fan-favorite female-centric flicks? perhaps.
Gadot confirmed her return on Saturday, posting photos of Gisele and the team on social media. "I miss my fast food family! I'm so thrilled," she wrote. "To my fans, this journey is fueled by your continued love and support. This is a tribute to the legacy we have built together, the fans and the Fast Family!
But the biggest surprise was Johnson's return after him.Publicly reject Diesel's requestRejoining the action series in a December 2021 interview with CNN after a very public feud between the two action stars.
"The world is waiting for the end of 'Quick 10,'" Diesel wrote on Instagram in November 2021. "Years ago, I said I would keep my word to Pablo [the late Paul Walker] Promise. I vowed in the finale, which is the 10th, that we will realize and embody the best "fast"!
in the interviewJohnson explained that he had spoken privately with Diesel. "My words are strong but sincere, and I say I will always support the cast, always support the success of the series, but I will never go back," he said, blessing the "Fast & Furious" franchise. Good luck and success for the next chapter. "
A chapter from Johnson is now obviously included.
A scene in the "Fast X" end credits follows the tactical team as they search for something (or someone) in a movie theater while Roy Rogers and Dale Evans' "Happy Trails" plays in the background. One of the officers, dressed head-to-toe in black with a mask and glasses to conceal his identity, reached for a ringing cell phone. The screen says "No Caller ID," but the voice on the other end is definitely Dante.
"You did something bad and dirty, Sheriff. Dom was driving the car, but you pulled the trigger," Dante said, while "Fast Five" footage showed Hobbs shooting Dante's father , the villain in that movie, Hernan Reyes. "Now I'll make you suffer," he said Dante. "The devil has come for you, lawyer."
As he prepares to return, the camera presses harder and harder on Johnson's face, and he grows more and more angry. "Well, I'm not hard to find, bitch!" Johnson growled.
Considering the film marks Johnson's franchise debut, using Fast Five to bring Hobbs back into the game makes perfect sense. In the movie, his character Hobbs starts off as an antagonist to Team Dom, trying to bring them to justice after a botched job, but as the show progresses, he sides with our heroes. Johnson later rode with the "family" in 2013's Fast and Furious 6 and 2015's Fast and Furious 7, but stepped down from the main series after 2017's Fast and the Furious, and in 2019 He reunited with Statham in the 2019 spin-off The Fast and the Furious. . : Hobbs and Shaw.
So not only does Fast X's mid-credits scene bring Hobbs back into the main plot, but it also opens up multiple possibilities for the path forward for the upcoming 11th film.
But the bigger question is when will Dom and Hobbs meet on screen? Or will they travel on parallel paths for most of the next movie, then collide at the end? who will say
(If these returns somehow prove to be one-offs, like Mendes' reappearance, then at least fans can still hope that Johnson and Gadot star alongside Ryan ReynoldsThere are also two "Red Notice" movies.Netflix）。
The next part of "Quick" will again be presented by Letterier, zKristina Hodson and Oren Uzier wrote the screenplay.on the red carpet for Diesel's Rome premiere last weekteases the possibility of a 12th movie, making "Fast X" the final trilogy of movies that sent the Torettos into the twilight.

A number of garden-related grants are available. Hurry; some of the deadlines are coming up fast.
Planting fruit trees
Grants for planting fruit trees are available for nonprofit organizations, public or nonprofit schools, or government entities from the Fruit Tree Planting Foundation.
The grant recipients must 1) own the planting site (or have long-term arrangements to remain at the planting site), 2) be committed to caring for the trees in perpetuity, 3) have a source of irrigation nearby, 4) and be able to help coordinate local volunteers to join the Tree Planting Foundation on the day of planting.
The Tree Planting Foundation is dedicated to planting fruitful trees and plants to alleviate world hunger, combat global warming, strengthen communities, and improve the surrounding air, soil, and water. They aim to situate orchards where the harvest will best serve communities for generations, at places such as community gardens, public schools, city and state parks, low-income neighborhoods, Native American reservations, international hunger relief sites and animal sanctuaries.
The deadlines are rolling.
Youth start veggie gardens to feed people in need
Katie’s Krops Grants offers grants to youth between the ages of 9 and 16 in the United States to start vegetable gardens with the harvest donated to feed people in need. The winners will be awarded a gift card to a garden center in their area (up to $500), support from Katie’s Krops, and a digital camera to document the garden and the harvest. Applications for all types of vegetable gardens, such as a container garden if you live in a city, or a vegetable garden located in your neighborhood or at your school, will be considered.
The deadline is Dec. 31.
Youth service projects
Youth ages 18 and younger can apply for funding for community service projects, such as turning a vacant lot into a community garden, through the Karma for Cara Foundation. Funding from $250 and $1,000 is available.
There are rolling deadlines.
Grants for teaching on herbs
The Herb Society of America offers funding for individuals, groups or small businesses to develop and deliver learning experiences to the public. Each year, the Grant Committee anticipates funding one or two grants for a total of $5,000.
The grant rewards innovative projects that enhance herbal education in school systems, in communities or in any public forum (electronic or person-to-person). It requires learning goals and a mechanism to measure the educational outcomes.
Applications are requested from educators (formal or informal teachers), persons engaged/employed in botanical or horticultural activities, museum directors, botanical or garden writers and small herbal business owners.
The mission of the Herb Society of America is to promote the knowledge, use and delight of herbs through educational programs, research, and sharing the experience of its members with the community.
The deadline is Dec. 31.

Dear Newsweek, My parents passed away in 2021, both in the same year. They were survived by me and my four siblings. They left their house in the will for the five of us to be shared equally.
My brother (the only son) and his wife have been living with my parents since they got married. Mom helped them to look after their only daughter, who is now married and moved out seven years ago. According to my brother and his wife, it was my mother that asked them to move in with my parents. However, mom told me when she was alive that she had actually asked them to get their own place, but they had both asked if they could continue to live with mom and dad, because they wanted to live in bigger house. Mom didn’t have the heart to reject them and said as long as everyone in the house could get along, they could live there.
During the 40 years they lived with my parents, my brother had some marital problems. About 15 years ago there was an incident which cause his wife to begin behaving quite irresponsibly, treating my parents’ house like a hotel and being disrespectful. My brother’s wife was unhappy but wouldn’t divorce him because she was enjoying the house and lifestyle. My poor parents put up with this until they passed away.
Roughly three years before they passed away, my father unexpectedly asked me to help him to sell the house because he wanted to give us all the profits in cash. He hadn’t thought it all the way through and had nowhere else to go if we sold the house so I convinced him to stay and assured him we would all work together and do the right thing when the time comes.
Flash forward back to now, and my elder sister and my brother are joint executors. My elder sister, myself and another sister all agree that we want to sell the house according to my parents will, and split it equally. My youngest sister has no opinion.
My brother and his wife however, have been bombarding us, shouting and screaming that they both have no intention of shifting,
This is doing my head in and all three of us are feeling very helpless!! Taking him to court is the last thing we want and will try to avoid it but we’re running out of options.
This is doing my head in and three of us are feeling very helpless!! Taking him to court is the last thing we want and we try to avoid it at all cost!!

Mediation Is Quicker and Less Expensive Than Litigation
Haitham (Sam) Amin is a trial attorney and a social media legal influencer based in California. He is the founder and principal attorney of Amin Law, P.C. S
I have a proposed solution for your legal woes—mediation!
Mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution that is often preferred over litigation for several reasons. First, mediation is typically quicker and less expensive than litigation. Mediation sessions can be scheduled more quickly than court dates, and the process is less formal and less expensive than a trial.
Another advantage of mediation is that it allows the parties to come to a mutually acceptable resolution—(hopefully). In litigation, the outcome is decided by a judge or jury, and one party may feel that they did not receive a fair outcome.
Furthermore, mediation can be beneficial for ongoing relationships, such as in business or family disputes. In litigation, the relationship between the parties can become damaged and it can be hard to rebuild. In mediation, the parties work together to find a solution that is acceptable to both of them, which can help to preserve the relationship.
Overall, mediation is often a better option than litigation for resolving disputes because it is quicker, less expensive, more private, allows for a mutually acceptable resolution, gives the parties control over the process, and can help preserve relationships.
The catch: Getting everyone to agree to mediate.
One suggestion: Invite your siblings to dinner at the family’s favorite childhood restaurant—the one where all of you used to dine at with your parents. During the meal, make the suggestion that mediation would be the better option for the reasons outlined above.
You Can Still Be in Control of the Situation
Peter J. Glennon is a trust and estate litigation attorney at the Glennon Law Firm, in New York.
Family disputes after loved ones pass are always the most challenging, even more so for siblings when parents pass away. The challenges tend to arise during the grieving process often when long-harbored feelings come to the surface among family members.
Often parents are the authority in a family, making the decision but when they are no longer there, adult children may develop false confidence in their respective positions and believe they are driven by the principle of “doing what mom and dad would want.” This is especially common with the older sibling.
This can lead to disagreements among the siblings and sometimes a dividing line of “us versus them” among differing siblings. This can be made more challenging when one or two siblings are the fiduciary or executor of the estate.
If it is any comfort, your situation while incredibly frustrating, is not uncommon. However, you do have options and you can still be in control of the situation.
I understand that nobody wants to go to court. It can exasperate the current tensions and cost time, money, and be emotionally draining during an already difficult time.
I believe your best move is to work with your Estate Attorney or to hire a Trusts & Estates (T&E) litigation attorney. You need legal advice about your jurisdiction’s relevant procedural and substantive law, but with that advice, you can start to devise a strategy to attain your person goals.
For your informational purposes, you might want to seek legal and strategic advice on the following topics:
- Valuing the house
- Selling the house
- Selling the house to your brother residing there
- Selling the house to your brother and holding the mortgage
- Leasing the house to your brother and his wife, treating them like any other tenant
If none of the above works, then you must know what the law in your jurisdiction provides for in the Estate context and/or real estate law. There are options, including possibly evicting your brother and his wife or seeking a real property partition.
These are all considerations for you to discuss with an attorney.
Avoiding court is possible if the proper message is communicated effectively, perhaps one that signals respect and understanding of the brother’s perspective and needs without appearing pushy, bossy, or controlling.

Contempt for the nouveau riche is hardly limited to China, but the Chinese version is distinctive. Thanks to the legacy of Communism, almost all wealth is new wealth. There are no old aristocracies to emulate, no templates for how to spend. I asked some of the women on “Ultra Rich Asian Girls” about being the objects of both envy and censure. “In Web forums about the show, people are always, like, Why do they have to show off like that?” Weymi said with a shrug. “I don’t think I’m showing off. I’m just living my life.”
But in an important sense, the term is apt. On one level, the “Dark” in Dark Age refers not to artistic regression but to a shift toward darker themes, graphic violence, sexual explicitness, and a generally cynical tone, an approach commonly summed up by professionals and fans with two words: grim and gritty. This metonymical expression has inspired portmanteau neologisms like “grimdark” as well as related phrases like “darker and edgier” or its counterpart in superhero film, “grounded and realistic.” If Moore and Miller are the creators most responsible for this grim and gritty turn, both are ambivalent about its legacy.
On Mothering Sunday, 1924, with one war not long past and a second waiting over the horizon, young Jane Fairchild – foundling, maid to the Niven household in the green home counties, and the narrator and protagonist of Graham Swift’s enchanted novella – has no mother to go to. Instead she has “her simple liberty”, along with a book and half a crown in her pocket bestowed by a kindly employer who, his sons dead in France and his domestic staff reduced, is inclined to be indulgent to her youth.
Part of this is a mirror trick – I suddenly see myself peering back – but the rest of it is down to the effective use of space that follows when you fill bookshops with – well, books, rather than books plus stationery plus lattes. Oddly, given the disparity in size and grandeur, it has a touch of Lello, the bookshop in Porto that always appears high on lists of the world’s most beautiful places to buy books.

When Beyoncé took to the stage to headline 2018 Coachella, she brought Black history and culture to the forefront. She followed this with the release of Beyoncé’s Homecoming documentary on Netflix and her surprise 40-track Homecoming: The Live Album. Now, she has pulled another one on us. Queen B has now released exclusive Homecoming merchandise.
Beyoncé’s Homecoming merch features short sleeve t-shirts, cropped long-sleeved and short-sleeved tees, tank tops, crewneck sweaters and hoodies. The silhouettes have details of Homecoming branding and fraternity-inspired motifs, with Egyptian and African symbolism.

Well not really. Today it was announced that Governor Jerry Brown and the Democratically controlled legislature of California were forced via a "gun to the head" to pass a moratorium on new soda taxes and an added provision that will do the same for packaging like the effective ban on plastic bags passed by ballot measure two years ago (it actually just forces shoppers to subsidize retailers' plastic bags purchases to the tune of ten cents a bag). The hyperbole surrounding this legislation is incredible. All of this was done as an effort to put a stop to a measure the soda companies were trying to fund which would prevent local taxes from being raised without a two thirds majority vote, just like is currently done on the state level.
In a state that has been controlled by the left for several decades, the 2/3 vote requirement for raising taxes has been the only thing preventing taxes from being raised even higher than the already high taxes we deal with here. Honestly I wish the corporations would have told Brown and the Democrats to take their deal and shove it, and had rather moved forward with the initiative.
In my eyes, this tax is like one of the "sin taxes" we have in things like cigarettes and alcohol, and even gasoline taxes. Politicians think correctly that voters believe it's the government's job to run people's personal lives and dictate what they should do with their own bodies as long as it's "for their own good". Take this from a guy who doesn't eat anything with sugar in it, who doesn't drink or smoke anymore either, taxing these substances will do little more than cost poor people a lot of money they don't have enough of, and give voters an emotional charge for having done nothing useful.
Back when I was a smoker living in upstate NY, I actually just figured out a way to circumvent the taxes altogether (which were several hundred percent by the way). There were cigarettes manufactured and sold by Native Americans on the nearby reservation (the Rez as we called it) that I switched to when the taxes got out of control. Some of my friends also resorted to literally rolling their own cigarettes to get around the exorbitant taxes. I didn't quit because it was an expensive habit for my wallet (it wasn't due to my circumventing), I quit because I wanted to. Nothing the government tried would have convinced me otherwise, and the taxes even gave me reason to want to shove it in everyone's faces that I was still gonna smoke no matter what they said.
Given my experience with smoking and my belief in The human right to self determination, the effort to get people to quit eating too much sugar while combating obesity should be conducted by voluntary means. Not only will those efforts end up being cheaper and more efficient, they will afford people with the respect and human decency that they deserve.
In short, choose peace. Choose human decency and respect. Love your fellow man by offering them a way to help themselves through voluntary means. Coercive force is never the answer.


With the emergence of digital economy, the global Internet of Things (IoT) market spend will grow from $625.2 billion in 2015 to $1.29 trillion in 2020 – with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.6 percent, a report revealed on Thursday.
According to International Data Corporation (IDC), in partnership with US-based IoT service provider Aeris, the installed base of IoT endpoints will grow from 12.1 billion at the end of 2015 to more than 30 billion by 2020.
“As CIOs, IT and business leaders move toward transforming their enterprises and expanding their digital footprint, the role of IoT will be a lynchpin for causing disruption and driving transformation,” said Arjun Vishwanathan, Associate Director for Emerging Technologies at IDC India, in a statement.
“There is broad consensus across industries on IoT playing a major role in delivering better efficiencies, productivity and customer experience,” Vishwanathan added.
The report said that increasing realisation of the value that IoT brings with improving customer experience is the key factor for the rising adoption of the technology.
“When you talk about enhancing customer lifetime value, smoothening customer onboarding or even making it easier for businesses to deliver sophisticated customer experiences, IoT technologies lead the way,” added Dr Rishi Bhatnagar, President of Aeris in India.
“Today, IoT has gone way beyond tagging and tracking, and has entered diverse domains and is enabling a range of business benefits,” Bhatnagar noted.

The work of Tim Wes is one of the most rhythmic replies to questions about the future of jazz. With his horn he blows the dust of what some folks might classify as “old people’s music” and in return he presents them tunes that are modern and fresh. At only 18 years old Wes brings us the music of an artist skilled enough to inherit the classics and brave enough to invent their future. With its own sound and trendy take on a vintage feel, his debut album On my way bridges the gap between time and tradition.

The Global Read Aloud is coming this fall (starting October 6 – November 14). For the duration of these 6 weeks, teachers will read aloud a book (or books by a particular author for primary-aged students). Learn more about the Global Read Aloud by watching this video by Pernille Ripp. More information about the timeline can be found here. What makes this even more interesting and engaging for students is the possibility of connecting with others who are also reading these books world-wide. I know many teachers who would like to involve their students in more global connections, but they are a bit afraid or intimidated by the process. The Global Read Aloud takes much of the planning away and allows you to focus on really great books and beginning to take that risk to connect with other classes world-wide.
This summer, I read all but one of the books for the Global Read Aloud (one is not yet been published). This year the grade recommendations have been removed so as to give teachers more flexibility over which book they choose for their students (or which book they choose together). Since I have read the books, I thought I would help people out a bit by telling you what they are each about and what grade I would feel they would be most appropriate (however, you will know best once you meet your students).
First of all, the author study this year is Peter H. Reynolds. He is such an inspiring author and illustrator whose books are filled with wonderful messages. Even though these are recommended for primary-aged students, students of any age would get a lot out of the messages in these books. I would actually propose that older students/adults would probably make the most profound connections with Peter H. Reynold’s messages. Here are the books for the author study. Where possible, I have linked to the reading of each book (or a preview) so you can get to know the story. There are some other great resources for the books here on the FableVision website.
If you enjoy Peter H. Reynold’s books, and their messages, as much as I do, you may want to check out International Dot Day on (or around) September 15 (I already have my Dot Day dress picked out!). This wonderful day is based around the book The Dot. If you have not read this book, you NEED to! The message in this book is a wonderful start to the new school year!
The other books (novels) are:
The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo
This is a sweet story about a fragile china rabbit and his journey in finding love and happiness when he is separated from his young owner who loved him dearly. This story brought a lump in my throat and tears to my eyes. You actually become very connected with this character and long for his happiness in his journey. This story is full of wonderful vocabulary! I would recommend this book to be read aloud to students in Grades 3-5.
One For the Murphys by Lynda Mullaly Hunt
This is a book I will not soon forget. It is about a 12-year-old girl who is put into foster care after a horrendous situation with her mother and her step-father. You read about the struggles she has connecting with this somewhat “perfect” family – far different from her own. Through these challenges, she gets closer and closer to the family and connects to them in a way that she never felt possible. And then, it’s time to go back with her mom… This book brought me to tears many times. Does the “ugly cry” sound familiar to you? Maybe it was just because of the personal connections I made with the book, but it is a great story of survival, personal discovery, and love. I would be cautious about reading this book to a class, depending on the personal experiences of the students you have in your class. It might be a very difficult book for some children to listen to. Perhaps, if you have a student who might connect strongly to the book, a conversation or allowing the student to pre-read the book might be a good idea. I would recommend this book for the middle years – Grades 6-8.
The Fault in our Stars by John Greene
I enjoyed reading this book about a girl with terminal cancer. It was very sad in parts, yet also sweet in others. I would recommend this to be read to students in Grade 8-10. While some younger individual students may enjoy this book, I would be very cautious about reading it aloud. There are some scenes that may not be appropriate for younger students.
The Fourteeth Goldfish by Jennifer L. Holm
I have not yet read this book, as it has not been released yet. Reading the reviews though,
it looks like this book would be good for students in Grade 5-7.
If you have not already done so, you might want to consider signing up for the Global Read Aloud 2014 here. It really is a wonderful, well-organized way to begin making those global connections in a meaningful way! You can really do as little or as much as you want. You can connect online to classes around the world using whichever tool you are most comfortable: Twitter, Edmodo, Google Hangout, Skype, the Wiki, or blogging. Pernille Ripp lists many of the ways you can connect here.
Good luck and I look forward to hearing how you connect or how you encourage the other educators in (or outside of) your building to connect.
2 thoughts on “Global Read Aloud 2014”
Thank you so much for writing this post, it is definitely helpful. I would like to chime in with age group recommendations though. Edward is appropriate from 2nd grade and up. The Fourteenth Goldfish can be 4th and up, One for the Murphy’s can be used with as low as 5th if you have the right type of class.
Thanks so much for taking the time to read and respond to my post. I really hope many teachers involve their students in this worthwhile experience. Such an amazing opportunity that you have started for us all. Thank you! Thank you also for the age group recommendations! I look forward to reading the Fourteenth Goldfish.
