Former Pakistan bowler Danish Kaneria praised Indian duo Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer for performing big in the first T20I and also explained why they got a big amount in IPL 2022 auction.
“Both Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer fetched lucrative contracts at the IPL auction. With their performance against Sri Lanka, they proved once again why they are rated so highly in T20 cricket,” said the former Pakistan spinner on his YouTube channel.
Ishan Kishan was the biggest buy-in the recently concluded IPL auction. The keeper, who had represented Mumbai Indians earlier, will return to the franchise after MI went on a bidding battle to bring the keeper back. Kishan, as a result, bagged INR 15.2 Crore contract. Shreyas Iyer went to Kolkata Knight Riders after a big war among different franchises. Finally, KKR signed him up for INR 12.25 crore. The franchise has also named him the captain for the upcoming season.
Kaneria then went on to praise Kishan for the way he had batted in the first T20I, said that he made the batting look very simple.
“Kishan made batting look very simple during his stay at the crease. The wicket was slow and the ball wasn’t coming onto the bat nicely. In spite of that, Kishan batted outstandingly, Kaneria said.
He knows the importance of this series: Kaneria about Kishan
After defeating West Indies, India had opted to rest Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant, which had opened the door of opportunities for other youngsters who have been knocking on doors for a while now. Ishan Kishan became the immediate selection into the playing eleven. Talking about it, Kaneria said that Kishan knows the importance of this opportunity and therefore, he will be keen to make the most of it.
“He knows the importance of this series as Rishabh Pant is still the number 1 keeper for India. He needs to make the most of his chances. While the West Indies series proved to be underwhelming for him, he has started off brilliantly against Sri Lanka,” he concluded.
India took on Sri Lanka in the 1st T20I at Lucknow where the hosts batted first. Ishan Kishan began well and showed some intent right from ball one. On the other hand, Rohit Sharma was happy to play the perfect second fiddle for him. Kishan ended the innings with 56-ball 89. He had 10 fours and 3 sixes.
On the other hand, Shreyas Iyer has promoted up the order in the absence of Suryakumar Yadav and he made the most of the opportunity. Iyer, who had to warm the bench in recent West Indies T20Is, made a mark for himself when he smashed an unbeaten 57 from just 28 deliveries. After Kishan’s knock, he helped India to keep up the run rate and took them close to 200. Chasing a mammoth total, Sri Lanka tumbled in front of some good bowling from the Indian team and as a result, they fell 62 runs short of the target.
Shreyas Iyer continued to smash the bowlers in the second T20I as well. This time, the situation was completely different as India was chasing and the team had lost a couple of wickets. He had a herculean task ahead of him at that time. Initially, he did struggle to time the ball but hung in there until he got freebies. He dispatched them and made sure to keep the scoreboard ticking. With the help of Samson, he rebuilt India’s innings and stood at one end while Jadeja finished the job for the team. Iyer remained unbeaten for the second time in a row and this time, he ended with an unbeaten 74 from just 44 deliveries, helping India to take an unassailable lead in the second match.
India and Sri Lanka will go again for the third and final T20I on Sunday. After the series, the team will battle it out in the two-match Test series. India has already announced the squad for the Tests and they have dropped Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane for the first time in years. This has certainly opened doors for Shreyas Iyer to grab a permanent spot in the middle order.

Just as there is a vast gap between the poetry of art and the poetry of the folk, so is there a vast difference between the music of the Sourwood Mountain fiddler and the music of art.
This antique musician knows little about Wagner and the musical drama and the Italian melodists, and cares less. His music causes a feeling of ennui to steal over one, but he is giving his hearers something they can understand. His strains are the outbursts from the depths of a being that is sincere, and he fiddles and sings because he feels.
In the words of Svenstrupp, the great Danish authority on folksongs, the words of these canticles of love and woe “talk like a mother crooning to her babe, and have scarcely a kenning.” It is related that when the maidservant used to sing “Barbara Allen’s Cruelty” to little Oliver Goldsmith, he would shed tears; that the recital of “Chevy Chace” moved Sir Philip Sidney as nothing else could move him.
But the transition to a new and enlightened age is inevitable.comments

This rug shaped like a tightly coiled piece heats up to kill dust mites lurking in its fibres. We conducted research into the effect of textiles on the domestic environment and found that asthmatic people can sometimes struggle to live with upholstered home furnishings.
“Pillows, curtains, upholstery, mattresses and carpets all add to the emotional value of the home. But people who suffer from asthma have a problem with textiles. Should their homes stay cold and impersonal?,”
“During our research we came across an asthmatic person. Because of his disease he is not able to use textiles like rugs, couches and curtains so his house felt very impersonal and unsociable. We found it challenging to give him back textiles, so he also would be able to make it homey and cosy for himself without having allergic reactions all the time,” they said.
Two lengths of rope dipped in a rubber coating unravel from the edge of the circular mat. Connections on the ends of these pipes connect the rug to the heat source, circulating warm water through the braided piping.
“We decided to use the radiator because it’s a heating system already, so that was a logical step,” Lenders told Dezeen. “When you take it off the radiator the hydraulic connection closes itself and will not leak or spoil water anymore.”
When the mat is not connected to the radiator, the two lengths of rope can be linked to form a loop and prevent water leakage.

TACOMA, Wash. (AP) -- A spectacular railcar fire fueled by 30,000 gallons of spilled alcohol sent flames high into the air, prompting the evacuation of nearby businesses and halting traffic in an industrial area.
No one was injured in the Wednesday afternoon blaze, which started near a Burlington Northern Santa Fe tanker railcar. The cause was under investigation.
The railcar contained denatured alcohol, a fuel additive that made for a roaring blaze but did not pose any significant health threat from fumes, said Bill Dunbar, an Environmental Protection Agency spokesman.
Businesses within a six-block area were temporarily evacuated as a precaution, said Fire Deputy Chief Gary Schiesz. The main rail line through the area was shut down for about two hours and an overpass was damaged in the fire.
About 30,000 gallons of alcohol spilled and an unknown amount that did not burn soaked into the ground or the nearby Puyallup River, said Sandy Howard, a spokeswoman for the state Ecology Department.
The burning car was isolated from the rest of the 20-car string that included nine tank cars, said Gus Melonas of Burlington Northern Santa Fe. The alcohol was considered toxic and safety crews were checking for any effects.


The Tennessee Titans (5-3) pass the midway point of their season this week as they host the Denver Broncos (3-5) for the first time since 2016. Kickoff at Nissan Stadium (capacity 69,143) is scheduled for noon CST on Sunday, Nov. 13.
Since the Broncos last visited Tennessee, the clubs have squared off on two occasions in Denver. Most recently, the Titans opened the 2020 campaign on a Monday night in Denver with a 16-14 win. In 2019, they were shut out 16-0 in the last game the Titans played before Ryan Tannehill was installed as the starting quarterback. Since then, the Titans' 35-16 record (.686) ranks fourth in the NFL.

Challenge: Pick a place from this list, and send it to a couple of your favorite people along with a date to go there next year. Have a great 2015!
All the photos were taken by the author.
#1 Canmore, Alberta
I can’t even begin to explain how awesome this place is in the summer. Most people who visit the area go to nearby Banff, which is great in itself, but Canmore is where you should go. This place is an outdoor wonderland. You can go whitewater rafting, take endless scenic drives, go hiking, fishing, and more.
The big horned sheep looked up at me and said, “It’s all about being in the right place at the right time.”
Pro tip: For a very special occasion, there is a helicopter company called Alpine Helicopters that takes you up to see the Three Sisters Peaks, a 9,600 ft. mountain sitting above the Bow River. Though it’s not the cheapest way to get around, they have discounts available, just mention The Jack Reynolds Special! There was a married couple taking off while we were there and we danced with them in our 14-city adventure video. It’s kind of a life changing experience.
#2 El Pescadero, Mexico
Back in April, I traveled to the Baja Peninsula on a whim with my friend Jake. We had no other plans except to find a few good places to surf. After a quick Google search when we arrived at the Los Cabos Airport, we found this place called Pescadero Surf Camp. While it was kind of a pain in the ass figuring out a way to get there due to our lack of preparation, we eventually found a little bus that took us straight there. It took about an hour and a half and was pretty fun.
Get on the bus that takes you to the bus station. From there, buy a ticket to El Pescadero. Have the bus driver drop you off at Km.64, then walk up the hill to the Surf Camp.
That’s right, you literally ask the bus driver to stop on the side of the road at kilometer marker 64 and get out on the side of the highway. Jake and I met some of the most incredible people from all over the world there, and we all became a little family over those few days.
Pro tip: Pescadero Surf Camp is super affordable, but they only take cash. Be sure to get pesos in advance! Tell Jamie we said hello. That’s pronounced “high may”. This place is amazing year round.
#3 Telluride, Colorado
It has become a personal goal to visit Telluride once per year in the Fall. The most important thing to know about this place is that all the surrounding areas are insanely beautiful. From approximately September 15 to October 30th, you’ll find one of the most amazing colored mountain foliage you’ve ever seen.
This is god’s country.
There’s a little something for everyone. It is home to the Telluride Bluegrass Festival, which is one of the largest of its kind. There’s a Mushroom Festival and, needless to say, some of the best skiing and hiking in the country.
Pro tip: The Peaks Resort has a freaking indoor waterslide! That isn’t the pro tip. The pro tip is that they don’t monitor it very well, so you can go down backwards, face first, and scream. It is pricey, but the off-season has amazing deals. Also, Colorado locals get a significant discount. This is great for skiing during the winter and everything else during the summer.
#4 Catalina Island (California)
Catalina Island is thirty miles off the coast of Southern California. When it’s not cloudy or smoggy, you can see it clearly from the mainland side. With a peak of over 2,000 ft, it jets out of the sea — it’s sort of an anomaly. I’m sure most people from the area probably have a stigma about it, as its main ‘city’ of Avalon is pretty touristy.
Catalina has golf carts everywhere instead of cars. It’s like a mini world less than three square miles in size.
What to do there? There’s everything from a submarine tour, to one of the largest zip-lines on the West coast, to amazing camping and hiking. I visited Catalina on the 14-city Adventure I wrote about here where we were able to experience the Zip-line, and it’s totally worth it for the expansive views alone.
Pro tip: Take a helicopter there in fifteen minutes. Flying over the deep ocean and seeing the mountains jet out on a sunny day is nothing short of incredible. It isn’t the cheapest way to get there, but for a special occasion, you can’t beat it. The other option is the ferry, of course. This is great year round.
#5 Big Sur, California
When people hear about California, they usually think of San Francisco or Los Angeles right off the bat. Here’s the thing – it’s the third largest state in the U.S. This means that there’s a lot to see. While “Big Sur” isn’t very well defined, it refers to the 90~ mile stretch of coastal land going south from Monterey. You could drive it in a day, or you could spend your entire life there. There’s really nothing specific about it I can mention; you just have to go there to see.
This is the way life goes in Big Sur. Waiting for the mail, watching the sea-lions in the surf or the freighters on the horizon, sitting in the tubs at Hot Springs, once in a while a bit of drink – and, most of the time, working at what ever it is that you came here to work on, whether it be painting, writing, gardening or the simple art of living your own life. – Hunter S. Thompson
The most important thing to know is to look for locally-owned accommodations on Google (and not on a major site like Priceline). If you’re up for it, camping is even better (and way cheaper).
Pro tip: Stay at Limekiln State Park. It’s like a magical forest from ‘Alice in Wonderland’ where fresh mountain-jungle water flows into the ocean. Also, it’s way better if you can plan to go without any phone/internet access. This is a nice option year-round.
#6 Olympic Peninsula, Washington
This is hand-in-hand with #5, Big Sur. They are part of the Pacific Coast Highway (California Route 1) that stretches nearly the entire west coast. That said, Washington and the Olympic Peninsula have their own distinct take on the matter, very different from Big Sur. Its astonishing beauty, unbelievable changes in ocean tides, and rural charm will make your 2015 that much better.
I thought I’d have a quick stop at Ruby Beach and take a few pictures. I ended up sitting on the same rock for five hours, where I watched the most beautiful sunset I’d ever seen unfold in front of me.
The photo above was taken about fifteen minutes after the sun disappeared behind the ocean, and I wasn’t even prepared for how amazing that truly was. The sand was a mirror of the sky, separated by a sliver of ocean over a hundred yards away. Notice the ‘real’ photographer taking a shot much closer to the water.
Pro tip: Spend more time on the peninsula than I did. I had literally done no research before I visited. I just borrowed a friend’s car from Seattle and hit the road without knowing anything about the area. Go to Ruby Beach, and avoid the winter season.
The MOST Pro Tip:
All of the locations on this list are in the western region (except for maybe Telluride). Find a way to visit more than one during your travel. Remember the challenge: pick somewhere on this list right now, and share it with a friend with the intent of visiting it next year. Include a date, even if it’s tentative.

I found out about the talented artist Happy Menocal from the owner of one of my favorite boutiques in Georgetown — WINK. Happy actually did the watercolor that is on WINK’s website. Once I saw Happy’s website and the rest of her work I fell completely in love with it. I’m especially a fan of her matadors (above and below), but this venus fly trap (below) is also a favorite. You can purchase her prints or cards on her shop here and she also does custom work and pet portraits. She also has work available via Jonathan Adler (another person I love!).

Several Queens elected officials are calling on Gov. Andrew Cuomo to step down in the wake of three women accusing him of sexual harassment.
Politicians — such as state Sen. Jessica Ramos, Assemblywoman Jessica González-Rojas and Council Member Jimmy Van Bramer — have said that he should resign.
Meanwhile, others — including U.S. Reps. Carolyn Maloney, Grace Meng and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as well as Assembly members Nily Rozic and Catalina Cruz — have called for an independent investigation — a move that is currently in the works.

Tokyo & Washington to limit North Korean access to oil - media
Along with South Korea, the countries have agreed it is time to put more pressure on North Korea, according to Nikkei.
On Tuesday, Japan's UN Ambassador Koro Bessho urged for additional sanctions against Pyongyang.
When asked by reporters about the possibility of an oil embargo, Bessho suggested that was an option.
China has opposed the embargo, saying it can worsen the lives of ordinary North Korean citizens.
On Tuesday, North Korea launched an intermediate-range Hwasong-12 ballistic missile which passed through Japan’s northern airspace. This was the fifth time North Korean missiles have flown over Japan.
Pyongyang hinted the next missile could hit the US Pacific territory of Guam.
China supplies most of North Korea’s crude, although Beijing no longer reports its oil shipments to the isolated country. According to South Korean data, China supplies about 500,000 tons of crude oil annually. China also exports over 200,000 tons of oil products, according to United Nations data.
In June, Reuters reported Chinese national oil corporation CNPC significantly cut fuel sales to North Korea. According to the agency, the decision was made more for business reasons rather than political. CNPC demands upfront payments, and North Korea has failed to pay recently.
North Korea has some limited crude oil exploration, according to the Energy Information Administration, but doesn’t produce petroleum.
During the country’s industrial peak in the 1970s and 1980s, it imported oil from China and the Soviet Union at below-market prices.
However, the deals ended after the Cold War, and North Korea's oil consumption dropped from 76,000 barrels per day in 1991 to an estimated 15,000 in 2016, the EIA reports.
China has also slashed coal imports from North Korea. Shipments of coal slumped by 75 percent in the first half of the year. Coal sales are the biggest source of foreign currency for Pyongyang.
However, China-North Korea trade surged 10 percent to $2.6 billion in the first half of the year, angering US President Donald Trump.
Beijing said the surge was mainly due to an increase in textile exports and no international sanctions were broken.

EUCLID, Ohio - A Euclid police officer committed suicide inside that city's police station Wednesday morning.
The man was identified as Sgt. Kevin Blakeley, a 28-year veteran of the force, and sources tell newsnet5.com that he had been notified that charges against him were imminent related to cash missing from the police evidence room. Moments later, he turned his gun on himself and took his own life.
The Euclid Police Department will address the incident during a press conference Thursday at 11 a.m.
"Police officers, it's tough for them," Euclid Mayor Bill Cervenik said. "They are a family and they lost a member today."
Cervenik said Blakeley spent the bulk of his nearly three decades in the department working in narcotics and vice.
"A great part of what he did was he worked for our sweeps, where we had problems in certain neighborhoods. Kevin would lead those details and be able to make people who are causing trouble in the neighborhoods understand that this isn't where they ought to be."
Earlier in the day Cervenik released the following statement:
"The city of Euclid and the Euclid Police Department are saddened by the tragic passing of this officer. Our hearts go out to the officers that work with this individual. The entire city is mourning the loss of this public servant. On the behalf of the entire city of Euclid, I extend our deepest sympathy, thoughts and prayers to the officer's family."
The city is flying all flags at half staff.
"Regardless of the circumstances and the fact that we don't understand why certain things happen in a person's life, and what decisions they make, he's still one of ours and always will be," Cervenik said.
The Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Office is handling the death investigation.

What can white people do right now?
We can talk to our children about white privilege.
Not to make them ashamed of who they are or to make them apologise for being white
But to make them aware that this privilege, like so many other social privileges, was constructed a long time ago in order to benefit people like them at the cost of people not like them.
And to make them aware that they haven’t earned this privilege, nor do they deserve it because of their colour
As much as men haven’t earned their male privilege, or wealthy people their socio-economic privilege.
And we can point out that it doesn’t mean their lives won’t ever be hard
But they’re unlikely to be hard for these reasons.
We can tell them that these privileges do not help society move forward
But that they still exist because some of the people who benefit enjoy the privilege more than they care about the people who are oppressed by it
And that it will continue to be like this for a thousand more lifetimes if privileged people do nothing.
They need to know that with this privilege comes responsibility.
A responsibility to question
A responsibility to learn
A responsibility to make unheard voices heard
And unseen people seen
And not to speak FOR others, but to afford others the right and the platform and the time to speak for themselves
Until the world listens
And maybe if we have these conversations with our children now, they won’t need to have them with their own.
This is something that white people can do.

JOY – LIVING CREATIVELY THROUGH THE SIX SENSES
“Love is joy and pleasure. It is Eros – passion, attachment, desire even lust that makes us really alive.”
– Carol Pearson, Awakening the Heroes Within
In this special retreat on the island of Lesvos, four friends want to give you the greatest gift we can give you, that is to connect you to your passion. We want to inspire and guide you to find what brings you joy, connect you to your passion and the desire’s in your heart and to show you that everybody is creative (including you).
Long-time residents of Lesvos Claire Lloyd and Matthew Usmar Walkswithdogs offer an invitation to share their lives in a beautiful authentic Greek village where community is paramount. They are opening their home, their hearts, the places they love and their creativity to give you a true insight into the reality of living creatively in every sense.
Together with my hubby, Francesco Cataldi the four of us combine our expertise as artists, photographers, creators of beautiful spaces, naturopath and life coach to help you uncover your deep desires, embrace them and how your passion and creativity can drive the next part of your life. The goal is JOY!
Passion is the ultimate connector to life, it connects us to the people around us, our creativity, to achieving how we want to live in life, to getting up and dancing, and most importantly it connects us to what’s in our hearts.
Passion makes you feel really, really alive. We are all potential geniuses if we find our true passion!
One of the things that we are rarely told in life, is that we are creators. We may hear that we are creative but rarely that we are creators and our lives are a form of art and the best way to create them is with passion.
Most of us pass our lives NOT understanding what our true LIFE’S DESIRES are how to ignite that passion within us.
We invite you to slow down and switch off, do a stock-take on how far you have actually come and then to set sail in your new direction and consciously create the next part of your life through the glorious vehicle of art and awakening your six senses.
Each day will be a mix of focus sessions to inspire and motivate you, art lessons, healthy delicious local food, yoga or swimming, walks, boat trips and long table lunches in our favourite tavernas and at Claire and Matthew’s home. There will be breathing and grounding techniques to assist you to access your intuition and downtime to reflect on our discussions, about your path, practice your new found love of drawing and art. The evenings will be spent together around a table reflecting on the day, enjoying local food and the thing the Greeks do so well, Kephi (enjoying life in the moment). Oh, and did we mention there will be Greek dancing!
Yoga will be taught by an experienced yoga practitioner Marjaana Makela, who studied under Angela farmer, art lessons will be led by Matthew Usmar Walkswithdogs and other focus sessions will be shared between Claire Lloyd, Carla Coulson, and Francesco Cataldi.
It’s not about going faster, achieving things that no longer count, it’s about going slower, really hearing the words of a conversation or birdsong, feeling what your gut is truly saying, tasting food like it’s the first time you have ever eaten and being revived and refreshed by a dip in the Aegean’s transparent waters. It’s about putting pen to paper or trying your first painting and learning to cut through the noise to find out what you really want.
Claire Lloyd creator of nurturing spaces and photographer, artist Matthew Usmar Walkswithdogs, Naturopath Francesco Cataldi and photographer and life coach Carla Coulson, all know about changing their lives to continue to go after what is in their hearts. It’s their connection to joy, creativity and their true life’s desires that continue to drive and create the lives they wish for.
With the sound of church bells on an authentic Greek Island as the backdrop we want to chip away at the person you want to become and explore the idea of living creatively by tapping into your passion. We will show you how to bring creativity to your everyday life whether it’s doing a painting you a proud of, decorating a beautiful table for lunch in a unique way or opening up to an untapped source within you that allows you to access a new ‘language’ or way of expressing yourself. Michelangelo once said ‘Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it.’
Our wish is that you will be inspired, refreshed and revived and go home with passion in your heart for how good the next part of your life can be, a journal full of notes, an art book full of beauty, and unique travel memories to last a lifetime. You will know and believe you are creative, had the chance to sit front row in the lives of others, now a new tribe of creative souls and that you have the ability to create the life you desire.
CREATIVITY –You are born a creator! Creativity is not an exclusive club, you don’t need a badge or to be born into a special family. Creativity opens your heart to new experiences, people, relationships and self-esteem. It connects you to a passionate part of your soul with a feeling akin to love. All of us are creative souls and when we allow our creativity we get access to a part of ourselves that we have kept locked away. We encourage, inspire and challenge you to live a creative life and show you how and what is holding you back from living a more creative life.
YOUR LIFE’S DESIRES – Uncover and fine tune the desires in your heart and make them a big YES. We take stock of where you are in life, challenge you to think bigger and remember your dreams. We show you how to connect your desires to passion so that it will drive the next chapter of your life.
CONSCIOUS LIVING – We let you in on the secret that allows us to continually go after our dreams and make them our reality. It’s our thoughts and beliefs that hold us back from our dreams and we show you how you can transform them and start heading in the direction of your true desires. We show you how we tap into our intuition to make better life decisions and how to direct our energy.
WELLBEING – Our bodies are the temples that house our souls!!! When you connect your mind, body and spirit you embrace true well-being. Saying yes to a bigger life full of desires means embracing your health. When you nurture your well-being you empower your soul, confidence, and self-belief. We touch on diet, exercise, breath, the nervous system, and the importance of self-care all with joy and a new way of looking at it.
JOY – Imagine if you could get more of what you want in life by having more fun and joy! Hard work will get you so far but joy, beauty and pleasure will fast-track it. Joy is a state of being. When you feel joy, you are present, physically and emotionally. When you tap into joy you are at one with yourself and source energy. We show you how to embrace, beauty, pleasure in your daily life to being you more joy.

Alert! America might have a french fry shortage, report says
Remember all the bad weather the United States had this year? It could lead to a french fry shortage, according to Bloomberg.
Combine a bad crop year and higher demand in Canada, that means the price of potatoes could also jump.
It might be time to hit the freezer aisle for the frozen potato section.
"Cool conditions started to hit growing regions in October, lashing potatoes with frost. Farmers in Alberta and Idaho were able to dig up some damaged crops for storage. But growers in Manitoba, North Dakota and Minnesota received snow and rain, forcing them to abandon some supplies in fields," Bloomberg reported.
According to Bloomberg, The United Potato Growers of Canada estimated 18% of the province’s planted area were left unharvested. The U.S. Department of Agriculture says domestic output also forecasted a drop of 6.1%.
Travis Blacker, of the Idaho Potato Commission, told Bloomberg: “French fry demand has just been outstanding lately, and so supplies can’t meet the demand."

The majority of ice on the earth is contained on ice sheets. They are a type of glaciers which are currently the largest of glaciers. The volume of ice sheets changes continuously due to the addition of snow and ice at the base or terminus. Hence, glaciers have dynamic characterizes, which make it possible to compare and contrast the drainage systems of Haut Glacier d’Arolla and the Greenland Ice Sheet.
From geolocation and physical features contrasting perspective, the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) is polythermal (Greve, 1997, p.901). The ice sheet exists in polar, sub-polar, temperate and sub-temperate at different regions in at different times, but it is generally windy and dry (Lenaerts, Medley, Broeke and Wouters, 2019, p. 377). Also, the GrIS covers an area of 1.7 million km2 and has basal water forms of about one meter wide, and three centimetres deep. (Bowling, Livingstone, Sole and Chu, 2019, p. 2). In contrast, the Haut Glacier d’Arolla (HGA) covers 6.3 km2, in the Swiss Alps (Richards et al., 1996, p.480). It has a basin feeding to the north and has an elevation of about 2550 to 3500 meters above sea level. They are warmer than the GrIs and hence more subglacial underground water sources (Bartholomew et al., 2010, p. 409).
A further contrast between the Haut Glacier d’Arolla (HGA) and the GrIS is revealed in the flow of water within the systems. Notably, the flow of water is dependent on the potential difference due to the sloping features of the glacier. The HGA is generally topographically higher than GrIS (Nienow, Sole, Slater and Cowton, 2017, p.332). Hence there is more water flows in the former than the latter. Also, although HGA has a higher rate of flow, the GrIS have been found to have four subglacial lakes (Bowling, Livingstone, Sole and Chu, 2019, p.1). Since there is no recorded change in pathways for subglacial water flow in HGA, it appears that the topographic conditions of GrIS are changing faster than of HGA. Lastly, the water flow in HGA has been found at the proximity of the ice margin. In GrIS, the water flow to the ice margin is less significant, due to the formation of subglacial lakes and its size in comparison to HGA (Smith et al., 2015, p.1002).
Concerning similarities, both HGA and GrIS, are well comparable in seasonal evolution. The evolution of both ice sheets cycles between the meeting and freezing seasons. During winter, both ice sheets experience enhanced sliding and reduced basal tractions. These experiences are caused by overwhelming surface melting, which increases water pressure (Hoffman et al., 2016, p.2). Also, the melting tales place in inefficient waterways that are characterized by a long, inefficient pathway. During the melt season, GrIS surface melt increases, the water-ice friction reduces, and the melt pathways are more efficient (Nienow, Sole, Slater and Cowton, 2017, P.333).
ORDER A CUSTOM ESSAY NOW
HIRE ESSAY TYPERS AND ENJOT EXCELLENT GRADES
In the same way, the HGA manifest reversed inefficiency during the melting season unlike during the freezing season. According to Nienow, Sharp and Willis (1998, p.404), the seasonal variation for HGA is such that at one season, the meltwater ways are constrained in time and space, and in another, they are not. Also, subglacial drainage is possible to occur on any part viable part of the ice sheets, as long as the basal temperature has reached the melting point (Pattyn, 2010). Hence, the flow of meltwater in both HGA and GrIS is influenced by temperate conditions in the same way.
Both HGA and GrIS have comparable feeding systems and atmospheric flow. In both ice sheets, the subglacial macroporous drainage systems occur through the supraglacial and englacial structures (Hoffman et al., 2016, p.9; Bowling, Livingstone, Sole and Chu, 2019, p.2). The surface waters ways on the surface streams and moulins in which water flows to enlarged surfaces undergo transition. Also, both ice sheets experienced similar atmospheric flow, regarding the various topographies they are formed. For instance, a relatively raised HGA or GrIS to approximately 100 km in length may lead to orographic precipitation (Lenaerts, Medley, Broeke and Wouters, 2019, p.382). In other studies, the atmospheric flow over the glacial impacts both ice sheets the same way (Richards et al., 1996, p.486). For instance, the impact of atmospheric flow on either sheet depends on topographic roughness and dimensions.
To sum up, HGA and GrIS are comparable through physical features and processes. Both exhibit different geolocation and features. They are similar in their evolution cycles, and both have comparable feeding systems and atmospheric flow.

In Belgern you can visit the sole Roland in the whole of Saxony and in Thorgau you should visit the Hartenfels castle and the castle church. This church was inaugurated by Martin Luther and is regarded to be the first protestant church in Germany.
Today you will cycle to Wittenberg, which stands in direct connection with the name of Martin Luther. We recommend staying longer, so you can spend more time in the world-famous Wörlitzer park, which offers lovely islands, canals, temples and sculptures.
The way leads through the attracting floodplain of the Elbe, along the world famous 'Wörlitzer Park'. A more than 100 hectare large area offers with its islands, channels and temples different attractions. In Dessau you will be delighted if you are interested in architecture - the 'Bauhaus-style' under direction of Walter Gropius accomplished in the 1920's.
In Aken you are going to get by ferry on the right side of the Elbe. Now you are in the biosphere reserve 'Mittlere Elbe', where you - with some luck - will might see an Elbe beaver. Further on you get to Walternienburg, where you cross the Elbe again to get to Barby.
On the right side of the Elbe you cycle along Dornburg and Pretzien. A well established bike way leads you through the nature preserve Kreuzhorst, which is close to Magdeburg your today's destination. Worth seeing are the cathedral, the monastery 'Unser lieben Frauen' and the 'Magdeburger Reiter'.
After breakfast your tour ends in Magdeburg.

Today, artists have an increasingly public role in the development of collaborative, community-inspired, ecologically-driven and socially just worlds. Artists are innovators not simply as individual producers but also as spatial experts, sonic arrangers, institution-builders, project managers, technical inventors, education, housing and health campaigners, practitioners of equality.
Thousands of artists work in different capacities in the cultural field. MFA Fine Art develops artists who recognise the future of cultural work as creative, diverse, economically distinct, collaborative and sociable.
On the BxNU MFA Fine Art students are introduced to a variety of dynamic modes of production and also have the opportunity to develop their skills as researchers. You are provided with flexible studio space as well as a large collective space which you organise, curate and develop as a peer group. In addition, our partnership with BALTIC offers access to a world-class institution’s curators.
Throughout the programme through our partnership with BALTIC there are opportunities to interact with artists, writers and curators as well as technical, archiving, educational, marketing and design teams who are working to develop exhibitions and events at BALTIC and BALTIC 39.
You will also access a broad range of practicing artists, curators and theorists via our weekly visiting lecture series and events in the BxNU Experimental Studio and Gallery North.

What is the challenge of my research project? Why am I eager to do it?
Our research group investigates the phenomenon of photon-echoes from semiconductor nanostructures using four-wave-mixing spectroscopy. In a typical photon-echo experiment, we excite an inhomogenously broadened ensemble of emitters, such as excitons, by a laser pulse. A time-shifted second pulse inverts the subsequent dephasing of the ensemble resulting in the photon-echo - a coherent emission of light. Studies of photon-echoes allow to acquire information about the coherent dynamics of individual emitters in large ensembles. Moreover, the photon-echo protocol fulfills the requirements for quantum memory applications. Quantum memories store qubits and release them on demand, which is essential for synchronizing quantum operations in a computer.
Therefore, I believe that our investigations are placed within a thrilling and promising field of research.

Government is the Cause of “Brexit-Trump Syndrome”
Stephen Michael MacLean delivers some home truths
The Powers that be never fail to demonstrate why they have earned the enmity of the average citizen. Bound up in a cocoon of self-satisfaction and self-denial, their political coup de grâce cannot come soon enough. This self-important élite are flummoxed by the people’s revolt in Britain and America, known respectively as Brexit and the Trump movement. A recent column dispatched from the prestigious London School of Economics and Political Science amply displays their continuing bewilderment.
Coining the term ‘Brexit-Trump Syndrome’, British academics Michael Jacobs and Mariana Mazzucato claim that an inability to understand economic reality explains why average working-class citizens, who suffered lost jobs and wages and failed to bounce back from the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-09 (despite billions spent in stimulus schemes), voted either to exit the European Union or put Donald Trump in the White House. Both described as ‘disastrous’ socio-economic choices. The implications drawn are that people were duped into voting against their financial interests. Au contraire. GDP growth is first examined. American ‘median household incomes are basically the same today as they were a quarter of a century ago’, the authors note, ‘even though GDP has grown by almost 80 per cent over this period.’ Similar statistics can be adduced for Britain, though this divergence is more recent. The problem, however, lies in the manner of calculating GDP, which includes both private and public spending. Not only does this entail double counting, since government revenue is raised through taxing private financial gain, but government does not provide any good or service of added value to the taxpayer.
As the classical economist John Stuart Mill observed, nothing is more patently false than the political nostrum ‘that the more you take from the pockets of the people to spend on your own pleasures, the richer they grow . . .’ GDP exceeds median incomes because stats are swollen by coercive contributions to government redistribution and, adding insult to injury, to compensate the labours of ‘beneficent’ state redistributors.
The dispersal of corporate profit is the next culprit. Our scholars take issue with shareholder dividends and management salaries ‘in record amounts to boost share prices’ at the expense of maximizing profits to ‘reinvest in future productive capacity.’ Add to this the $2 trillion ‘sitting on the books of public companies in the US, rather than being reinvested . . .’
In the United States, government policy accounts for much of this distortion. When corporate taxes can be 35 per cent and applicable taxes of capital gains and dividends strike stock-owners rise to 15 per cent apiece — combined to a maximum tax of 30 per cent — it makes short-term economic sense for corporations to pay the lesser of the two and pay out to individuals rather than be penalised for growing the business. Government’s insatiable appetite for tax revenue makes it impossible for corporations to plan for the long-term and wary of capital-intensive investment. The American public — employers and employees, including state welfare recipients — are hurt by this artificial restraint on economic growth and prosperity.
Corporate tax cuts will repatriate overseas profits, reverse tax inversion, and encourage investment; meanwhile, a sensible tax code (such as a consumption or flat tax) will end the injustice of double taxation, where wholly ‘consumed’ income can be spent guilt-free but financial gains from ‘invested’ income that serves a public good get repeat visits from the tax-collector.
Ironically, Jacobs and Mazzucato’s third indictment of Brexit-Trump is reserved for government itself —that it does too little, rather than too much. Not only has capitalism failed the people, they say, but the commonwealth too, the people’s last, best champion. ‘This private failure to invest is matched by a failure of public investment,’ the authors lament. Critics of government failure have focused on austerity to the detriment of marshalling stimulus in the service of sustained growth when, Jacobs and Mazzucato write, ‘unregulated financial markets are prone to misallocating resources and creating asset bubbles which must inevitably burst.’
So much for progressive economic insight within the academy, overrun with false prophets of the Keynesian faith. J.S. Mill had its measure a century ago. ‘The utility of a large government expenditure, for the purpose of encouraging industry, is no longer maintained,’ he wrote in 1844. ‘It is no longer supposed that you benefit the producer by taking his money, provided you give it to him again in exchange for his goods.’ Unless, that is, you live in ivory towers, where almost anything can be supposed. For it is a utopian fantasy to blame Wall Street financiers when Fed-issued fiat money, by its very ethereal existence, distorts production and causes malinvestment in scarce resources.
Don’t like Brexit-Trump Syndrome? Stagnant wages? Lack of corporate investment? Failed stimulus? The antidote is simple. As are rising real wages, capital accumulation, and investment for economic growth and prosperity. It’s free markets, entrepreneurial innovation, and voluntary exchange. But it’s definitely not government intervention.

This reminds me of the way my grandmother made chicken noodle soup. I did this in two steps--made the stock and deboned the chicken, chilled the stock in the refrigerator and then removed the fat that settled at the top. Next day, I made made the soup. This has such wonderful flavor and would be good anytime, but especially when you feel blah. This is a great recipe-Thanks for sharing it.
This is the BEST Chicken noodle soup ever! Definitely don't hold out on that cream and parmesan--it really makes this a dish to rave about. Also, I use 1 package of the frozen egg noodles for this--the brand we have here is "Grandma's." The frozen noodles are WAY better and truly taste homemade. This is an outstanding 10-star soup!
I have a different way of making broth: I like to use chicken feet/claws. The broth comes high in protein and collagen, and it's easy to do if you have a crockpot. Just let it run overnight. The second day I used Ms. Deen's recipe, cooking the chicken inside the broth from the day before. This left an extremely rich broth. So rich that the creme, parmesan and noodles were overkill. One thing I would add is a couple of tablespoons of habanero infused sherry.
I have been making these for a few years. I have made it more times then I can count- for people that are sick, for potlucks, for families with new babies, etc. It is always a huge hit and they always ask for the recipe. Most proclaim it to be the best chicken noodle soup they have ever had. It's really that good. This is the one of the only recipes that I follow almost exactly (with the exception of seasoning to taste) and I always add the cream and cheese. This with a good piece of bread and a simple salad makes a fabulous meal!

Fabulous! This was just what we all needed, a good thick soup on a cold night.Thick and creamy. This makes a huge batch and we had no leftovers. I used Turkey instead of chicken to use up leftovers and we left out the mushrooms but otherwise followed the recipe, the cheese and cream took it to a whole new lever. we loved it, thanks for sharing.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Hello all, thank you for visiting My Page but forgive me for it is a work in progress! :) As I am sure you have noticed I changed my Chef Name to Manami which means love & beauty. ;) Just thought I should get with the program - my geisha & my icon! :) Don't fret, I won't change it again!

I am 70 years young and I live in a nursing home, which is out of this world, I am treated like a princess and the world is my oyster! I have a private room and during the season I do taxes for most of the staff, as well as my personal clients that have been following me since I left the business world about 25 years ago. I was rear-ended by a van and it turned my whole world upside down. Why dwell on that?

I am an American Jew (from NYC) who moved to Havana, Cuba when I was 2 1/2 years old, lived there until a few days after Castro took over and vamoosed it out of that country as fast as my legs would carry me! I was on a forced hiatus from the UofM, due to illness.

From there my sister, mother and I went to NYC to work and my father went to Haiti in Port-Au-Prince, where he and my uncle had purchased some tiny cocoa plantations & a chocolate factory - for the choccolate liquer - to make baking chocolate (the real bitter stuff). We joined my father about 2 months later where I spent 2 of the most carefree & wonderful years of my life! It is the stuff that movies are made of! (A la Grace Kelly - even my clothes were like hers)>

I then continued my studies in upstate NY and hated it because it was too, too cold!:( Went back to NYC to work and see what I wanted to do with my life - I was all of 20 years old and had to drop out of school because of illness and then because of the weather! Yuck - so I got a job in a Textile Buying Office as a receptionist and soon I found myself buying trimmings! Loved it and was very happy with the work I was doing.

However, I got an offer from two young guys who had a factory in Cleveland, Ohio, where they made Maternity Clothes and they wanted me to be in charge of the shipping dept, keep inventory and in my spare time - help with the designing!! I couldn't pass it up - the offer sounded so great and the salary was twice what I was making in the NYC. So I went to Cleveland, got married, had both my children and got a divorce 15 years later.

Then my children and I moved to South Florida and have been here since 1978, I can't count that far back :)

Learned how to do taxes with H&R Block and worked simultaneously as a Supervisor in 2 offices for them for 15 years. Then after the accident everything went spiralling downwards until I could no longer walk alone even with a walker - so the next step was a wheelchair. Stayed at home with a lot of help (nurses, PT therapists) fixed the bathroom so I could bathe myself and fixed the kitchen so I could help warm-up meals (was taught how to cook in rehab) and so forth and so on.

However, the fire department had other plans for me, I called them too often to pick me up off the floor - how embarassing! So they gave me a choice - either a home or they would have to call HRS! :( (very sad)

It was there, in my home where I was robbed!  All my cookbooks (all my Julia Childs Cookbooks, my Settlement Cookbook which had been my mothers - published in 1939 - with all her notes) my mother's cookbooks from Cuba & Haiti, all my handwritten recipes. They also took all my Delft collection, some antiques that I had in the kitchen like my rolling pin, a beautiful old & used wooden bowl, a charcoal-iron that was brought north when my parents left Haiti, it was hand-painted & was gorgeous, as well as all the other things that are too numerous to mention!

That proved to be the last straw & from there it was an ALF, which was horrible, and then on to another home where the administrator of that home became the administrator here and voila, here I am.

I have a beautiful large private room with a private bath, furnished to my liking: eclectic!  My room is large enough to house my office and all the other odds and ends with which I like to surround myself.

During tax season, mostly, my room is always full (of course I love it that way)! I have a blanket my daughter bought for me in New Mexico and that is on my bed. You guessed it - that is where everbody sits or on my great grandfather's arm chair which is in great shape.  Update 01/11/2008 that time is here again :) Have started doing taxes already and not just regular taxes but corporations, partnerships and 1040X - ammended returns! Whoopee! I love the feeling I get when this time comes around and I get into gear!!! I love it! :)

The head chef, the kitchen supervisor & the dietician enjoy the recipes from Zaar; the ones that I post, as well as, the others. We are in the process of changing the menu right now - so we have been doing a lot of figuring. The administrator is so cute because every once in a while she asks for a recipe and then she gives me a pack of paper so I can print them.

I am president of the resident council and most of the family members come to me to take care of their grievances - this way I do my part - and the staff can take care of the larger problems! It has been working for 10 years - why change if it ain't broke?

Well, it's time to say hasta luego folks.


Found in a garden shed where it had been for at least the last thirty years, this WW2 British military throat mic looks a bit sad and dilapidated. The paint is falling off and the steel fittings are rusting, the elastic is past its best, and a hungry woodworm has been drilling into the crumbling leather. So imagine my surprise when I plugged it in and it immediately burst into life!
The M.T.L.L. No 2 was used by the RAF and by the army. The mic was worn around the neck and was designed to pick up vibrations direct from the voice box. The two leather covered sensors were pressed against either side of the throat. The great advantage of the throat mic was that it could be used effectively in very noisy environments, such as inside a tank or an aircraft in combat. Even loud sounds around the wearer would be largely rejected. Although the audio quality is not fabulous, speech has a high degree of intelligibility.
This view below is of the back of one of the sensors with the plastic cover removed. Inside there is a magnet, the polarity of which is marked on the metal case ‘N’ and ‘S’. The wires are identified with red and blue cotton thread. (Hot and cold?)
Below, the strip of steel which picks up vibrations from the throat is sitting on top of the coils and magnet. This assembly is held in place by the leather covering. The result of this ingenious arrangement is a small electrical (audio) output signal appearing at the red and blue wires.
It would be hard to exaggerate the importance of military communications during World War 2 and the crucial role played by the M.T.L.L. No 2 throat microphone.
