125 minors went missing in the first 4 months of 2017, according to data released by Greek police on occasion of International Missing Children’s Day, May 25.
The data showed that a total of 241 children went missing in 2016, from which 147 were girls and 94 boys. Of these 204 were found by Police. But the issue that raises concerns is the fact that only in the first 4 months of the year the number of children gone missing are over half that of 2016. Of the 125 missing so far, 101 have been found. Another factor is that the vast majority of the children missing were of foreign ethnic background.

Realising safe & optimal electric operations
In 2023 Smart-Ship installed its force-feedback Azimuth controls on board of two very special, fully electric ferries Gorichem XII and Altena VI’. The vessels are currently sailing between Gorinchem, Sleeuwijk, Hardinxveld, Werkendam and Woudrichem.
Optimal battery usage
In the next steps a system will be implemented where operators can be actively guided on optimal battery usage. As can be seen in the video below, the operators will be warned when requesting too much battery power in relation to the current capacity and the distance that is to be traveled.


Butina, a Russian nationwide who analyzed at American University in Washington, pleaded responsible last year to conspiracy to act as an agent of a overseas govt soon after she tried using to infiltrate conservative political groups, together with the Countrywide Rifle Association, and encourage Russian pursuits. Butina was sentenced to 18 months in jail previously this calendar year and has been in custody considering the fact that her arrest on July 15, 2018.
The 30-year-outdated gun rights fanatic was the very first Russian citizen convicted of crimes relating to the 2016 election, despite the fact that her attempts seemed to be independent from the sweeping election-meddling outlined in former particular counsel Robert Mueller’s report.
Butina intends to return to her hometown of Barnaul in Siberia.
“I am not a circus bear,” Butina stated.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has earlier criticized the circumstance and Butina’s sentence, calling it “arbitrary,” in accordance to condition news company Ria-Novosti.
“They took, grabbed her, place the female in jail, but there was very little to show for it,” Putin reported.
Decide Tanya Chutkan, who sentenced Butina previously this yr, stated she engaged in work on behalf of a Russian official that was both “sophisticated” and “perilous.”
“This was no easy misunderstanding by an overeager overseas scholar,” Chutkan stated.
In interviews and court appearances Butina has insisted she has no unwell experience towards the US, telling CNN in April that she may well tutor Russian college students who want to study in America. Inspite of its difficulties, she also put a rosier spin on some aspects of her incarceration, referring to jail as a “aspiration diet regime.” But, she has reported that the extra salacious allegations levied in opposition to her by prosecutors have been additional challenging to confront.
Butina has cooperated thoroughly with the US federal government as part of her plea deal, and a source acquainted previously instructed CNN that she largely furnished data about her boyfriend, Republican political operative Paul Erickson.
Erickson was indicted in February for wire fraud and funds laundering in a independent case in South Dakota. He has pleaded not guilty.
But for Butina, the body weight of her criminal offense, incarceration and accompanying media protection has been evident. Her voice wavered in courtroom during her sentence earlier this yr.
“I have a few levels but now I am a convicted felon with no revenue, no position and no freedom,” Butina reported at the time. “My name is ruined.”

Lindsay Lohan isn't the only original Mean Girls cast member publicly voicing her interest in doing a sequel to the film. Rachel McAdams, who played iconic head Plastic Regina George, said she would also be interested in revisiting the role during an interview this weekend. McAdams was speaking on the Heroes of Health: COVID-19 Stream-a-thon.
She said, according to Entertainment Weekly, that "it would be fun to play Regina George later in her life and see where life took her!" There have been discussions but “in joking…not quite seriously,” she said.
She admitted that she didn't anticipate Mean Girls or The Notebook having a long-lasting effect on people 15 years later. “Let’s hope Mean Girls has helped girls to be nicer to each other, not the other way around," she quipped when asked whether she thought the movies would be as culturally defining as they were. "Yeah, it’s really bizarre. I feel really lucky to have been a part of something that’s stuck around—even a little bit. That was never anything I imagined happening in life. So yeah, it’s strange and surreal still.”
McAdams' remarks come days after Lindsay Lohan, who played Cady Heron, spoke about her interest in reprising her Mean Girls role. "I think I was hanging on to [Mean Girls] for a really long idea," she told David Spade on Lights Out with David Spade. "I wanted to come back with a Mean Girls 2 with the same cast, work with Tina [Fey], and the whole crew again, and [Mean Girls director] Mark Waters. That was really what I wanted; I was excited to do that. But that's all in their hands, really." Lohan is returning to acting herself in Frame.


Pleasanton Mayor Jerry Thorne joined other city, civic and regional leaders this week in officially marking the completion of the first phase of widening State Route 84 between the I-580 and I-680 freeways.
With this widening project, the Isabel Avenue segment of Hwy. 84 is completed as a four-and six-lane throughway from I-580 to Stanley Boulevard.
The next phase of improvement will widen the roadway to four lanes to the Ruby Hill Eastgate entry point at Pleasanton's eastern edge. Eventually, plans call for widening Hwy. 84 to I-680, turning the thoroughfare into a junior expressway.
"This project will build a vital connection between Interstate 580 in Livermore and Interstate 680 through Pleasanton to Sunol," Mayor Jerry Thorne said at last Monday's ceremonies. "These projects improve public safety and efficiency and provide multiple community benefits."
Alameda County Supervisor Scott Haggerty said that with the improvements to Hwy. 84, the roadway reaches expressway standards of 55 mile-per-hour drive speeds."
"These investments benefit Tri-Valley residents and Bay Area commuters alike," Haggerty said. "A healthy economy depends on a reliable transportation system and it is in our best interests to see that people and products move safely and efficiently throughout Alameda County. These projects help us meet that goal."
Other speakers included Mayors John Marchand of Livermore and Tim Sbranti of Dublin, Caltrans District 4 Director Bijan Sartipi and Alameda County Metropolitan Transportation Commission chairwoman Amy Rein Worth.
Citing the Measure BB transportation tax measure on Tuesday's Alameda County ballot, Thorne said the county's transportation commission "has made its case with its 25-year track record of delivering projects efficiently and cost-effectively."
"I'm proud that the Pleasanton City Council unanimously supported the 2014 transportation expenditure plan on next week's ballot," Thorne added."
"We know that economic growth happens when we invest in infrastructure," Thorne said. "The 20124 plan will provide $8 billion, yielding $20 billion in economic activity for our region, and 150,000 jobs. That's a strong return on our investment."
The expressway widening project is the third of five in a series of projects to improve Hwy. 84. The first four projects, beginning with the 580/Isabel Avenue interchange completed in March 2012, are funded by a combination of local Measure B, state and federal funds.
If voters approve the Alameda County 2014 Transportation Expenditure Plan next Tuesday, the final segment of will be funded, completing the entire corridor between I-580 and I-680, Haggerty said.

Rectangular-shaped fish in tins, salted meats or pressed into cubes, dry fruits, potatoes stored under straw, vegetables hidden under the sand for better conservation… During the Great War, the eating habits of the Belgians changed as the conflict dragged on; the arrival of previously unknown imported products and the development of "homemade" recipes for conserving foods were all part of the efforts to combat shortages.
Early in the morning, the private and public markets in the cities and villages open their doors to provide the population with the foods overlooked by the German requisitions, and the thefts of whole wagons. Whether from the countryside or from private vegetable gardens in town, the meats, cereals, fruits and vegetables used on a seasonal basis during the conflict are still eaten today; in the collective memory of the oldest generations of the population, some of these foods still maintain the link between taste and the idea of shortages, as is the case of chicory.
Between 1914 and 1918, food supplies for the vast majority of Belgian households was a daily battle against the threat of scarcity. In the minds of organisations such as the CNSA and of Belgians knowledgeable in the field of nutrition, the danger of famine prompted the desire to teach the population about the importance of including new products such as rice and corn in their daily meals, and how to prepare foods that were available and in keeping with the principles of economical and rational cuisine. These lessons included advice on preparing more nutritional soups, about trusting the metallic cans that contained reduced fibre fish, and even the importance of giving priority to rainwater as opposed to the water from springs that had been contaminated by dynamite and the passage of military boots.
Still with the needs of rationing in mind, the flavours of the war depended on the economical abilities of homemakers. Despite the reality of shortages, the sense of need and uncertainty ended up instilling new habits and food-related customs that are still reflected on plates and in glasses to this very day.

Kickstarter Project: “Librii: A New Kind Of Digital Library For The Developing World”
This new library-in-a-shipping-container plans on using growing Internet access in Africa to create a new model for making available both electronic information and physical books.
It’s a conundrum that library advocates have struggled with for years: in many areas in the developing world, libraries run on donations, which means they often end up with irrelevant books that never even get removed from their boxes. People still come to libraries in these places for a quiet place to read and study, but certainly not because of the resources they provide. Recently, a crop of initiatives have launched that aim to make libraries more relevant again. Librii, a project from Libraries Across Africa that’s seeking $50,000 in funding from Kickstarter, is one of them.
Much of the online portal’s content will be free, but Librii plans on charging a small fee for some of it to generate revenue. That’s the model: Librii thinks it can move away from a more philanthropic set-up by generating enough cash from its libraries to keep them going. Revenue will also allow Librii to keep its online content up to date.

Whether its making games, designing furniture or doing architecture, having a vision of what you want to create is always a strong advantage. Most times, what we have to work with is a flat, two-dimensional image that can’t give us as much information as we’d like.
Having a three-dimensional image, though, can go a long way when we go into the design aspect, giving us greater insight as to how it would play out before we actually get down to making it.
You may also want to take a look at our electrical CAD software package list here.
Draw It Out
With things coming and going, designs tend to change and when you’re working on a construction project or a furniture design, your plans on paper can change drastically. Going three-dimensional is one way to ease the load and help you see problems in the plans before they actually happen.
To help address the issue of three-dimensional creations, CAD software, or Computer-Aided Design software, has been developed to help you out when things get down to the designing and planning.
- Through Unbuilt Walls
You are able to go through your design in the three-dimensional virtual space as if the design had already been created, giving you an idea of how it would look like if it were made in real life.
- What has Yet to Exist
Three-dimensional renderings of your designed furniture can help you map out how the actual thing should look and scale up to, allowing you to see how the finished product will look like from different angles.
- Miniature On-Hand
Having a three-dimensional version of what you are trying to create is one of the best ways to sell your product or plan, allowing you to show what a scaled model of what you’re creating looks like.
LibreCAD For Mac
3DCrafter For Windows
AutoCAD 360 For Android
Sculptris – Most Popular Software
Not Limited to the Lifeless
While mostly used for designing furniture and inanimate objects, CAD software packages are able to be used to render three-dimensional designs for living, breathing things for movies or gaming.
The three-dimensional models created by the CAD software packages can be animated with the use of other software or by the CAD software itself depending on the software package you have. Here are a few uses for those not in the furniture or architectural fields:
- It Lives!
Three-dimensional models created by the CAD software packages can easily be animated on a three-dimensional virtual field, allowing you to simulate movement or even add collisions.
Animation with some, if not most, CAD software packages include the ability incorporate physics on impact, letting you send you animations flying depending on what you set up.
- It Has Thumbs!
Most CAD software packages are able to merge three-dimensional models, allowing them too look like they are attached to one another or even holding each other. With the use of some tweaking on physics aspect as well, giving something opacity, you are able to make one three-dimensional model actually hold something instead of just attaching it!

There’s a huge chance that the Jacksonville Jaguars will be able to pick up DeeJay Dallas in the NFL Draft. For Dallas and a multitude of Jaguars fans, having him join the team he’s supported most of his life would be a dream situation.
As Dallas and the rest of the rookies went through the strenuous NFL Combine, the press managed to get a hold of Dallas, asking him about the opportunity to play for his hometown Jaguars.
Jacksonville(dot)com wrote about his thoughts, and the young running back is thrilled by the thought:
″It would mean a lot if I go to the Jaguars,″ Dallas said Wednesday via the Florida Times-Union. ″I just feel like I would be a hometown hero, honestly. That’s my area – Jacksonville, South Georgia area, North Florida. That’s where I made my mark.″
Dallas would be a terrific option for the Jaguars if they decide to pick him up. In his final year with Miami, Dallas carried the ball 115 times for 693 rushing yards and eight touchdowns. His 140 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns also make him a viable receiving option for teams.
Hopefully, Dallas will be available by the time the Jaguars decide to burn a pick on him. However, nothing ever works as planned. Whichever team picks him will acquire a talented running back to boost their depth.

Patrick, Tori, and Kaiya started their Wednesday with an early AM snorkel off the “Galant Lady.” Getting in the water first thing in the morning was something we’ve all been eager to do, and this was the perfect morning to do it! Among the highlights of the snorkel were an apprehensive barracuda, a stingray, some split-crown feather dusters, some comb jellies, as well as an assortment of colorful fish. After that, it was time to get some coffee and get to work.
After working on some of the Bimini dolphin photo-ID logs, and data entry for a few hours, it was time to break for lunch and then head over to the Sea Crest, where Kel was hosting a DCP information session with this week’s eco-tour group. It was a great opportunity to connect with the guests we’d been accompanying all week, and it also gave them a chance to get to know more about us and what exactly the Dolphin Communication Project is all about. It was also fun to introduce them to our Adopt-A-Dolphins. Thank you to everyone for your great questions, stories and support!
Once the guests were ready to go, Nicole led us down to the dock for our boat departure, and we were off in search of dolphins. Once under way, we were able to rotate between positions and responsibilities, each spending time with the sighting sheet and surface camera, and Patrick and Kaiya were able to get to get in the water during the only encounter of the day. Kaiya was able to test her skills with the DCP video camera and try for some focal follows with a group of crater-feeding bottlenose dolphins, with one spotted dolphin in amongst them. With both Patrick and Kaiya in the water documenting the activity, Tori was on the bridge snapping pictures with the surface camera. Though it was the only encounter of the day, it was quite eventful, with the bottlenose exhibiting some aggressive behaviors towards each other, such as jaw-clapping.
As it started to get late, the captains opted to start heading back in, in the hopes we’d find some spotted dolphins while en route to the dock. Instead of the spotted, however, we had a brief sighting of 2 more bottlenose (thanks to Nicole’s keen eye), one of which was riding our bow, just as we entered the channel in the homestretch. All in all, it was another glorious day at the office, made even better by the guava birthday pastry given to Kaiya for her 23rd birthday today! (Happy Birthday Kaiya!) Hopefully tomorrow we’ll spot some spotteds.
Patrick, Tori, Kaiya, Kel & Nicole signing off.

It was my interest in rail that led to my involvement in NH politics and what a ride that it has been.
In any case, yesterday I went to what was once one of my favorite and most frequent railfan sites. And this is Wells River, Vermont. Back in the day this was a major railroad junction and nexus. It declined with the rest of the industry after WW II but it sill continued to be a major freight throughfare right through to about 1999.
This is shot that probally represents the epicenter of this important activity. I'm standing on the southern terminus of the Canadian Pacific Railway "Lyndonville Subdivision" that runs south from Canada. I'm looking south at the Boston & Maine line that leads to White River Junction, Vermont and down the Connecticut River to East Deerfield, Mass. The line to the left also belonged to the Boston & Maine and it was their line to the papermills at Berlin, Groveton and there was also some salt and lumber business at Littleton.
Today all this is gone. The successor the the Boston & Maine, New Hampshire & Vermont Railroad abandoned most of the line to Berlin and Groveton and thus severing this connection. The Canadian Pacific evaculated from it's portion and sold their line to the State of Vermont. Later the Boston & Maine and it's owner Guilford Rail System would sell their portion of line from Wells River to White River Junction, VT to the State of Vermont for about $3.2 million dollars.
I used to go to this exact location and see all kinds of rail activity. At one point Ford Motor Company was bringing cars down from Canada via this route. I mean there was autorack after autorack interchanging from the CP to the B&M and it was happening right here. Actually, to get technical, it was CP to the Springfield Terminal Railway (ST). The ST was a successor to the B&M during the last years of operations on this line.
Today, all this is gone. The State of Vermont, as owner, signed a 30 year lease with two options for renewal to the Washington County Railroad, part of the Vermont Rail System. And they do run trains from White River Junction up to Newport, VT. And I don't think anywhere near the scale of what the CP and B&M were doing for traffic but this is only my vision.
I'm sure 'Guest' can point out showing me that I'm wrong. But the history of this area is what is making me think of the proposed Canadian Pacific/Norfolk Southern merger. Which I still hope gets rejected by the Surface Transportation Board.


Enthusiasts can’t overcome their amazement at the innovation of electric cars – technology that is 100-plus years old.
In Friday’s edition of the Vancouver Sun, writer Andrew McCredie – who is tooling around in a modern, all-electric Nissan Leaf and blogging about it – marveled at the 1912 electric car produced by the Anderson Car Company, which was on public display at the local “Electrafest” over the weekend. McCredie, seemingly blinded by the nostalgia surrounding the car, ignored the obvious: that its cost, range, and efficiency illustrate that there has been no significant technological advancement, in practical terms for American usefulness, with today’s electric vehicles.
“Perhaps most amazing is that electric cars were, in fact, the norm back in 1912, as gasoline engines were still very much in their infancy…,” McCredie wrote. “This particular car was purchased new by a certain Dr. French in 1912 for the princely sum of $3,200, a price more than a large house of the day.”
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ inflation calculator, that electric car would cost about $75,000 today. Considering the billions of dollars in state and federal government grants and tax breaks for cars like the Leaf and Chevy Volt – which retail roughly for $37,000 and $41,000 respectively – that figure at a minimum aligns with the electric car of 100 years ago. And it may be worse, as the Mackinac Center for Public Policy estimated that each Volt sold through last year had $250,000 in taxpayer subsidies behind it.
So the sales price for electric cars is no better than 100 years ago – what about how far it travels on a full charge? The major all-electric vehicle on the market today, the Leaf, was once touted to get 100 miles on a charge but after 18 months of experience with it, no one can credibly claim it gets more than 80 miles per full charge. In real-life situations when people use their heaters or air conditioners, or must travel up and down hills, it’s much less than that. For example, one Tennessee owner last year needed four recharging stops to travel 180 miles.
So how far have we come since 1912? Not very, as McCredie explained.
“Dr. French’s electric car was originally powered by nickel-iron Edison batteries that provided the car with a respectable range of 161 kilometers, which is similar to the full-charge range of the 2012 Nissan Leaf’s lithium-ion battery pack.”
Another electric car from Dr. French’s era, the 1909 Baker Electric, was showcased a few years ago by “Tonight Show” host and car enthusiast Jay Leno (pictured with the Baker). The video segment is viewable on YouTube.
“It goes 110 miles on a charge,” Leno explains in the video. “As you can see, electric cars haven’t changed a whole lot range-wise.”
Of course where the technology has improved – as it has with gas-powered vehicles – is in size and design, and with the ability to travel at higher speeds. But it hasn’t with the length of time it takes to recharge car batteries. Today’s Leaf and Volt (whose range is extended by gasoline power) require at least four hours for a full recharge, unless you happen upon a so-called “fast charger” that will do the job in 30 minutes. Those are almost impossible to find.
As Kris De Decker of Low Tech Magazine explains, EV recharging at the turn of the century – in some ways – was more efficient.
“If today’s supporters of EVs would dig into the specifications and the sales brochures of early 20th century electric ‘horseless carriages,’ their enthusiasm would quickly disappear,” he wrote in May 2010. “Fast-charged batteries (to 80 percent capacity in 10 minutes), automated battery swapping stations, public charging poles, load balancing,… in-wheel motors, regenerative braking: it was all there in the late 1800s or the early 1900s. It did not help (prevent the demise of EVs). Most surprisingly, however, is the seemingly non-existent progress of battery technology (today).”
Indeed, scores of years and billions of dollars (much of it that once belonged to taxpayers) dedicated to improvement of electricity storage has yielded little, at least as far as its usefulness for human transportation is concerned. Nevertheless the amount of public money that continues to pour into still-obsolete electric vehicles, batteries and chargers is obscene. About $8.5 billion from the Recovery Act was devoted to loan guarantees for the manufacture of electric vehicles, including $1.4 billion for Nissan to retrofit a Tennessee plant to produce the Leaf. When completed this year the company says it will be able to produce up to 150,000 Leafs annually.
Another loan guarantee recipient, Ford Motor Company, was bestowed with $5.9 million in taxpayer backing. The first Ford Focus Electrics began to roll off the lines late last year. Yet the “stimulation” that was supposed to come with the subsidization of electric vehicle production hasn’t materialized – in fact, the Obama administration has over-stimulated battery production as poor EV sales will lead to surplus inventory.
“A looming shakeout in the industry,” reported the Detroit Free Press in April, “which would likely include plant closures and layoffs, is also likely to touch off a fierce debate over whether federal and state government officials made a major error by using more than $1 billion in grants and tax credits to spur massive investments that are not yet needed.”
General Motors sold a paltry 1,860 Volts in May (compared to 29,579 Chevy Malibus as my NLPC colleague Mark Modica noted), while Nissan sold an embarrassing 510 Leafs. Meanwhile Ford has sold only 16 Focus Electrics – total – so far, but the a company official told USA Today it isn’t trying very hard to sell them.
“The marketing of the Focus Electric is to people who buy electric vehicles, not to you and me,” said Jim Farley, Ford head of global marketing.
So there’s something else that hasn’t changed since 1912: people aren’t buying electric cars. That’s billions of taxpayer dollars to fund a technology few people want, and that manufacturers don’t really care if they sell. And this was supposed to go a long way to help fight global warming. We’re doomed.

Travel restrictions may be easing across Australia, however international travel is still a no-go for the foreseeable future.
Now, more than ever, is the opportune time to explore our own backyard and discover the stunning home-grown destinations South Australia has to offer, some of which rival even the most famous tourist attractions across the globe.
Umpherston Sinkhole, Mount Gambier
Some may think scenic sinkholes only exist in Mexico, but they’re yet to witness South Australia’s underground wonder, Umpherston Sinkhole.
Once a typical limestone cave that naturally corroded and collapsed, the hole was transformed into a beautiful underground oasis by James Umpherston in 1886.
Today, the sunken garden is an almost otherworldly green space with statues and perfectly manicured greenery covering the floor of the sinkhole.
Stick around to dusk to watch the possums begin to emerge.
The garden is open every day and remains open until late in the evening.
Free entry. You can find Umpherston Sinkhole via Jubilee Highway East, Mount Gambier, 5290
Instead of the wine region of Provence in France, why not consider South Australia’s Barossa Valley?
France may be known as the centre of the wine-making world, but South Australia offers a great contender with the Barossa.
And while you’re sipping on world-class Shiraz, you can feast on a local cheese board (which sounds a lot more appetising to us than snails and frog’s legs).
Blue Lake, Mount Gambier
If you’re dreaming of a lake that rivals those of Croatia, take a short drive to the Blue Lake.
Inhibiting one of the extinct volcanic craters of Mount Gambier, the Blue Lake boasts a vibrant cobalt blue colour during the months of November through to March each year.
The mysterious colour change of the water is believed to be because of the water temperature of the Lake, but whatever the reason, it’s a breathtaking sight which awes thousands of visitors year after year.
Adelaide Himeji Gardens
A traditional styled Japanese garden, Adelaide Himeji Gardens is a gift from Adelaide’s sister city, Himeji in 1982.
The gardens bloom with features of profound religious significance to the Japanese people and designed to recall the beauty of nature.

Satellites have become smaller, cheaper, and easier to make with commercial off-the-shelf parts. Some even weigh as little as one gram. This means more people can afford to send them into orbit. Now, satellite operators have started launching mega-constellations—groups of hundreds or even thousands of small satellites. Instead of one large satellite, groups of small satellites can provide coverage of the entire planet at once. Civil, military, and private operators are increasingly using constellations to create global and continuous coverage of the Earth. Constellations can provide many functions, including climate monitoring, disaster management, or satellite broadband.
But to provide coverage of the entire planet with small satellites requires a lot of them. On top of this, they have to orbit close to Earth’s surface to reduce interruption of coverage and communication delays. This means they take up an already busy area of space called low Earth orbit, the space 100 to 2,000km above the Earth’s surface.
Satellites are regulated at the national level and through licensing, guided by the principles of the Outer Space Treaty of 1967. Though the terms constellation or mega-constellation are not found in the treaty, they are considered space objects, like all other satellites.
As procedures and regulations vary from country to country, the challenge is how to govern mega-constellations without creating legal fragmentation. It is imperative that the topic is discussed at the international level.
Yet currently, there is no legally binding definition for a satellite constellation, nor for the newer term mega-constellation.
Most satellites in low Earth orbit are operating between 600 and 800km above sea level. This is considered a congested area, as there are lots of satellites there already. Small satellites have shorter lifespans than the larger satellites, which typically orbit above low Earth orbit.
However, it can still take up to about 150 years for satellites to be removed, by re-entering the atmosphere and burning up, if they are about 750km above sea level. Some are removed purposefully, through controlled re-entry, and others are designed to fall in an uncontrolled way.
This is not only true when it comes to physical space, but also radio use. To communicate, satellites use the radio spectrum. With the increase in mega-constellations, there is a danger of operators «warehousing» radio frequencies, stockpiling them before they actually need them.
If low Earth orbit becomes overcrowded with satellite and mega-constellations, avoiding collisions will become more difficult. In September 2019, the European Space Agency had to fire the boosters on one of its satellites to get it out of the way of another satellite, otherwise the two would’ve collided.
Hopefully, mega-constellations will be discussed by member states at the UN as soon as they are able to do so. Though work in the committee can be slow and highly political, international guidelines along with national licensing procedures need to add considerations for mega-constellations.


Bots and trolls aside, some of us may find our devices useful in making sense of the forthcoming election: to research candidates and polling places, request an absentee ballot, or get texts and updates from our favored office-seekers. But the “device”—in its more archaic meaning of an emblem, logo or design—took on a different significance in past American elections.
Late in the 19th century, some Kentuckians could still cast a vote by voice, but others going to the polls were liable to be handed a ballot printed not by an election authority but by a particular political party. One glance at the distinctive colors and markings of such “tickets” allowed voters to quickly register their preference, but unfortunately the process also made their votes public and, once deposited in the box, eligible for remuneration from the candidate with the deepest pockets and fewest scruples.
Kentucky’s mandate of a secret ballot in 1891 sought to diminish opportunities for fraud, but concern remained for the then-large number of voters who were unable to read. Accordingly, the state’s election law of 1892 prescribed the steps by which candidates, whether nominated by a party or put forward by petition, could appear on a ballot: in addition to “a brief name or title of the party or principle which said candidates represent,” they were to include “any simple figure or device by which they shall be designated on the ballots.” It could be “any appropriate symbol,” with a few exceptions: “the coat-of-arms or seal of the State or of the United States, the national flag, or any other emblem common to the people at large, shall not be used as such device.”
In October 1901, the Warren County, Kentucky clerk received instructions from Secretary of State Caleb Breckinridge Hill for balloting in the forthcoming state and local elections. As long as each of four parties had at least one candidate entitled to appear, their devices were to be shown as follows: “a game cock in the act of crowing” for the Democrats; a “Log Cabin” for the Republicans; “the Plow and Hammer” for the People’s Party; and “a Phoenix” for the Prohibition Party. The ballot should further display beneath each emblem the prescribed large circle in which voters could place an “X” indicating their endorsement of the straight party ticket. From there, it was up to the voters. Left to their own devices, on November 5 the county gave the Democratic ticket the lion’s share (or rooster’s, perhaps?) of 2,920 votes cast.
These ballot instructions to the Warren County Clerk are found in the Manuscripts & Folklife Archives of WKU’s Department of Library Special Collections. Click here for a finding aid. For other collections on elections and balloting, search TopSCHOLAR and KenCat.
P. S. Need help this year? Check your ballot. . . the “devices” are still there!

Residents of Soho, London’s famous neighborhood known for its intense nightlife, can no longer stand the smell of piss on the streets. A good chunk of the nearly £1million the British capital spends on city cleaning each year is dedicated to washing the urine that has collected on walls and pavements.
A project presented by the District Council of Westminster aims to end the practice of using a means of getting back at the men who normally relieve themselves on the street.
It’s an “antipee paint” that promises to repel urine in public places so that it splashes more, reaching, for example, the clothes of those who break the rules. The substance is translucent, so strict bohemians can’t tell which area is “safe” to urinate in.
The peculiar proposal was a response to more than 3,000 complaints from the public to the local legislature and is inspired by similar experiences in Germany. “Obviously the urine is not pleasant. Our residents are angry,” Aicha Less, who holds the equivalent of a councilwoman, told AFP. “We will see the difference in six months and if there will be less smells,” he added, defending the right “to live in a clean and safe environment.”
In Soho there are painted signs saying “This wall is not a urinal”. The warnings complement London legislation which punishes anyone who treats public places as a toilet with fines of between £50 and £80.
According to Tim Lord, leader of a Soho residents’ association, there are more than 400 licensed shops in the neighborhood to sell alcoholic beverages. At least a hundred of them stay open until dawn. “Thousands of people drink here at night, and this summer [do hemisfério Norte], Soho stunk. When antipee paint works, it will reduce the smelly street problem, and that’s something to appreciate.”
Although Soho has several portable urinals dotted at strategic points from Thursday to Sunday night, public toilets have all but disappeared: some were closed during the most critical phase of the Covid pandemic and did not reopen as the health crisis abated.
From Lord’s point of view, it is an “English problem”. “You don’t have to travel far in Europe or North America to find clean, wellmaintained public toilets. Soho is an important historical part of London, built in the 1650s. We just want our council to take care of it.”

It’s about time I posted a video or two in this blog. I stumbled across this amazing video today of a talk presented by Markus Fischer at the TED Global 2011 conference. He, along with his team, have created what they dub SmartBird – a large and lightweight robot based that flies like a bird. Modelled on a seagull, the robot is really quite phenomenal. It’s actually quite large, with a wingspan that seems to resemble that of an eagle, yet it only weighs 450 grams.
If you have never heard of TED talks, then it’s really worth a visit. It’s full of 5-8minute long presentations by some of the greatest scientists, artists and businesspeople from around the world.

Carper Applauds EPA’s Proposed Rule to Safeguard State, Territory, and Tribal Water Resources
WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Senator Tom Carper (D-Del.), Chairman of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, today lauded the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) proposed rule to update the regulatory requirements for water quality certification under Clean Water Act Section 401. This proposed rule would grant stronger control to states, territories, and Tribes to preserve and protect their water resources.
“The Clean Water Act quite clearly gives states, territories, and Tribes the ability to protect their water quality when projects are permitted or licensed,” said Senator Carper. “I commend Administrator Regan and the technical experts at EPA for taking a prudent step to help these governments act to address local water quality.”

Eclipse GlassFish Tools enables publishing of Eclipse IDE projects to GlassFish as well as controlling GlassFish server from within Eclipse IDE. It extends Eclipse Web Tools Platform.
Because today's software-intensive automotive systems are still developed in silos by each car manufacturer or OEM in-house, long-term challenges in the industry are yet unresolved. Establishing a standard for car-to-cloud scenarios significantly improves comprehensive domain-related development activities and opens the market to external applications, service provider, and the use of open source software wherever possible without compromising security. Connectivity, OTA maintenance, automated driving, electric mobility, and related approaches increasingly demand technical innovations applicable across automotive players.
The open and secure Eclipse Kuksa project will contain a cloud platform that interconnects a wide range of vehicles to the cloud via in-car and internet connections. This platform will be supported by an integrated open source software development environment including technologies to cope especially with software challenges for vehicles designed in the IoT, Cloud, and digital era.
Eclipse CogniCrypt is planned as a set of Eclipse plugins, which to developers ultimately are meant to provide the following features:
Software engineers spend most of their time learning to understand the software they maintain or depend on (or will depend on). The goal of this learning process is to support decision-making. In this project, we focus on the increasing dependence on open-source software (OSS) over the last years and the decisions related to depending on open-source software. Eclipse CROSSMETER will support the eﬃcient and eﬀective decision-making regarding dependence on OSS projects and components thereof. This entails both decisions on the architecture level (to decide to select and OSS project) and on the code level (to design the use of the OSS project). In particular, CROSSMETER will provide techniques and tools for extracting knowledge from existing open source components, and use such knowledge to properly select and reuse existing software to develop new systems. The activity of the developer will be continuously monitored in order to raise alerts related to the quality of the selected OSS projects and to give suggestions that can reduce the development eﬀort and increase the quality of the ﬁnal software products.
The Eclipse Thingweb project will start with three sub-projects in the toolkit:
node-wot is the official reference implementation of the W3C WoT Working Group and implements the so-called "Servient Architecture":
With 'DATA' being 'the currency of the IOT', having a proper data-sharing technology will be a key-asset in any IOT-platform.
I am proposing to introduce gamification elements to eclipse to educate and encourage users to explore more features of the IDE.
Eclipse Mita is a programming language for the embedded IoT. We combine a declarative setup of system resources (e.g. Bluetooth connectivity or a temperature sensor) with a modern imperative language. We introduce first-class primitives for sensor access and connectivity to other systems, which allows for quick exploration and integration into IoT ecologies. We support embedded algorithm through powerful primitives, e.g. lists, vectors and statistic functions. In order to prevent problems at compile-time Mita has a static strong type-system.
Eclipse Xsemantics is a DSL (implemented in Xtext itself) for writing type systems, reduction rules, interpreters and general relation rules for languages implemented in Xtext. A system definition in Xsemantics is a set of judgment rules which have a conclusion and a set of premises. Xsemantics then generates Java code that can be used in your Xtext-based language for scoping and validation.
Eclipse Xpect is a unit- and integration-testing framework to be used for Xtext-based languages. Test data (e.g. expectations) are embedded into programs written in the DSL under tests. Xpect itself is based on Junit; new test methods can be written in Java and are called by the Xpect framework with the test data.

Extremely useful for completing your weekly challenges at the last minute, Fortnite's Team Rumble mode will be subject to a few changes with the deployment of Chapter 2 Season 2. The information comes from Epic Games developer "DustyDevot", who did a Q&A this week. The employee explains that the Team Rumble mode will be in the spotlight at the beginning of next season, and that it will be quickly made dynamic.
It's true that the mode currently remains unbalanced in terms of action. The first 5 minutes are devoted to collecting materials and weapons and the whole second part of the game is a joyful general fight, in a very small area.
Here are the changes that Epic Games could make on this game mode:
- All players will start the Team Rumble game with several hundred units of materials on them, in order to dive into the action faster.
- All weapons found will be of blue or higher quality.
- Doing a kill will siphon 25 health points.
- The circles will be less systematically "in the center" of the previous one.
- Potential increase in the number of kills giving victory to either team.
- Potential change in the way the Glider is taken into account in the inventory.
These changes are still to be taken with a pinch of salt as Epic Games hasn't officially confirmed their deployment. Chapter 2 Season 2 will start on February 20, and will notably bring a change in the game's physics engine that will allow the destroyed structures to collapse in a realistic way.
What if one of the next Fortnite skins on the show is a Harley Quinn? The battle royale's official Twitter account gave a clue to what might be an upcoming partnership with the DC Universe character.

Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman 2 will hit the screens on November 1, 2019—a month and a half before its original release date.
With the change in date, Wonder Woman 2 faces zero competition.
Warner Bros. had November 1 put up on the calendar with a yet untitled DC movie. Patty Jenkins is on board to direct it and Gadot is locked in to reprise her role as the Daughter of Hippolyta, reports deadline.com.
Earlier, Warner Bros had announced that Wonder Woman 2 will release on December 13, 2019. Now, with the change in date, Wonder Woman 2 faces zero competition.
There were reports that Gadot wouldn't sign for the sequel unless Brett Ratner's name was removed from the franchise. According to deadline.com, this is not true.
"First, Gadot is locked in to star in 'Wonder Woman 2' and there haven't been sour talks between the actress and Warner Bros' officials in regard to Ratner," read the report.
Ratner's production company RatPac-Dune Entertainment helped produce Wonder Woman as part of its co-financing deal with Warner Bros.

During an interview with Fox News, Kushner said Black Lives Matter protesters were just “virtue signalling” after the police killing of George Floyd in May.
“They’d go on Instagram and cry,” he said.
Then, Kushner suggested that Black people in America ― who are “mostly Democrat” ― have to want to be successful.
“President Trump’s policies are the policies that can help people break out of the problems that they’re complaining about,” he said. “But he can’t want them to be successful more than that they want to be successful.”
That, critics noted, was a nod to racist stereotypes. And Twitter users weren’t having it:
Jared Kushner is the face of white privilege and nepotism. He doesn't want to change our racist, broken system because he benefits from it.
He’s the last person that should be lecturing the Black community on the value of “hard work.” https://t.co/KyuTgPZv9a
