Sandbox John gave me the tip that signage was in place at the Wiehle station. The typography appears to be a mix of the heavier-weight Helvetica that has been used in the system from the start (over the station entrance) and a lighter weight on the pylon. I’m also seeing this fresh-looking lighter weight in new platform location signs along the Blue and Orange Lines downtown; the signs set aside empty space for the Silver Line route information to be added when the Line goes live.
John also reports:
The north end of the pedestrian bridge at the Wiehle-Reston East station is a little interesting. It just ends at the corner of the plaza of the Comstock Partners Reston Station property. No sloping canopy like at the bottom of the escalators at the entrance pavilions. There also is no entrance pylon marking its purpose. Adjacent to the end of the pedestrian bridge is a set of stairs that descend to the loading dock access road to the buildings that have not been built yet. Not sure why it is there, best guess is it there to allow access to the north side of the station from the location where the fire trucks would connect fire hoses from the fire hydrant to the dry standpipe.

e|5 to Showcase UV, EB Technologies
CHEVY CHASE, Md., March 17, 2006 -- Wearable displays, radio frequency identification (RFID), military textiles, inkjet for printed electronics, and biological and chemical hazard detection and suppression for body armor will be among topics presented at the e|5 2006 ultraviolet (UV) and electron beam (EB) technology exposition and conference, to be held April 24-26 at McCormick Place in Chicago.
"From fiber optics fabrication to super fast, environmentally friendly printing technologies, Chicago area companies are at the forefront of developing -- and using -- technologies to help US business become and stay more competitive," said the event's sponsor, RadTech, an association for UV and EB processes. "By replacing energy-draining and inefficient traditional methods of curing materials with innovative, safe EB and UV sources, manufactures are becoming more competitive and helping the environment. While electron beams and ultraviolet photons may sound futurisitic, area corporate giants and local firms in industries such as aerospace/defense, printing and packaging, wood, plastics, metal, homeland security, nanotechnology, LEDs and electronics, along with hundreds of other area businesses, are developing and refining these methods to not only improve corporate efficiency, but to make new products," the association said.
More than 3000 technologists and manufactures from 30 nations are expected to attend e|5 2006.
The application of nanotechnology and of LEDs to UV and EB will also be discussed, and a full day will be devoted to technical developments from Japan (presented in simultaneous translation). In addition, a variety of UV- and EB-enabled products will be on display by more than 100 exhibitors.

I think we have enough of this kind of thing in our daily lives ,why should anyone pay for a ticket to watch a movie about 4 useless chicks... oh wait, it's because it's ticking all the feminist boxes. How many movies will need to be made before everyone realises that this kind of thing is never funny?
Not sure what exactly in this movie is supposed to make people laugh or
even smile, but it does give a fairly accurate portrayal of your
typical shallow-water British brat,together with her lack of purpose,
direction, values and morals.
There's more and more movies being classed as comedies that can only get one depressed, and this is certainly one of them.
I must say I expected a sub-Pixar animated feature,but Tad has
surprised me on so many levels that I actually rated it higher than the
recent Disney/Pixar films.
the characters are well developed and animated superbly,but I was particularly impressed by the set designs,although the whole production has been done with so much imagination and artistic flair...it's true that it's a cartoon-y take on I.Jones/TombRaider theme but the attention to detail in every shot is simply staggering,and on top of it all it is a very cute looking movie.
It'll take a second viewing to process all the details I must have missed the first time,as it's really fast-paced.
the visuals are lavish and immaculate.
the story was clearly written by a vengeful feminist without any sense of direction.It's so bad and obvious that it insults one's intelligence...perhaps the intent WAS to insult???
Unless you're into computer animation or indeed feminism,you'll find very little value in this movie.
Brave is a total disappointment.
there's more and more animated features that rely on cg and vfx to sell a totally non-existent plots and stories,and Brave is one of them.
Sure,some Scottish accents/themes were thrown in in another attempt to pull the wool over our eyes but nonetheless,I feel cheated out of my money.
I don't really care how well choreographed scenes of serial mutilation
are,this movie offers very little value,and even Kate Beckinsale in it
doesn't look all that appealing or impressive... In fact she was a lot
more imposing as an actor and a person in Serendipity than in this
It makes one wonder whom these movies overloaded with gore and violence are made for - do people really find them interesting to watch? It seems that video games are driving the whole entertainment industry to its most vulgar and violent extremes.
Most people do not ever see a stabbing in their lives,yet on the screen that's like common courtesy.
The first three Underworld movies are a lot better than this one.
While I accept that the series might have provided a silly
entertainment to a fan base of sorts,this effort lacks so much in so
many departments that I wouldn't even consider it a film.
For anyone unfamiliar with the series,the characters and their respective actors offer absolutely nothing of any value,and neither does the "plot".
It just paints a very grim picture of British youth and deteriorating British culture,forcing the audience to watch the British humour being reduced to a mixture of awkwardness,scatology and frustrated bing-drinking twats desperate to indulge in mindless sex in any shape or form.
A truly horrible thing to watch and waste your time on.
I give this movie 3 out of 10.
The characters and animation are really high end,everything else is not.
This is not an animated film for kids,the dialogues and humour are not suitable for children,and,lets face it,the characters are simply too rancid and disgusting looking to have your kids exposed to them.
And yet,the movie's story is so shallow that I don't see it suitable for adults either.In other words,it's just your regular empty-headed animated feature,and the audience is expected to be in awe just because there are digital characters rendered on screen and acting out real actor's voice over.
I'd say that Toy Story 1 conveyed more emotions and story than Rango,despite it being released ages ago and despite it being more technically ground-braking in terms of digital animation for its time.
Digital features have been around long enough for me not to be impressed by the 3D visuals only,I thought ILM would know better than that.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
I love Kate Beckinsale in Underworld series,but this movie irritated
I don't understand how movies like this ever get the green light,and I wonder how many more of the same pointless projects will be funded,produced and then served to mindless audiences around the world.
5 minutes into the movie I thought to myself: Not another female American cop flick in which she cares more about her career than her own life,going into dark places where killers lurk armed only with the torchlight,and looking all-pretty even after days without sleep and loosing a finger? Who on earth wants to see more of that?
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
1. It starts off well,and the newscasts give it a certain sense of realism.
2. South Africa is a refreshing choice of location (not in America,for once).
3. the idea of aliens struggling here on Earth seems quite plausible.
4. occasionally,some eye-pleasing visuals are on offer.
1. Alien creature design is flawed,it makes it very difficult for them to emote - which in turn makes it hard for us to relate to them until very late into the movie...quite frankly their look evokes disgust throughout,which lingers on for hours after the film.
2. No character (be it human or alien) was given sufficient depth,they just run around like in a cheap action movie.
3. The storyline is totally linear and thus totally predictable,offering the same kind of message as seen in bucket-loads of other action movies.Plot holes abound.
4. Visually,the sets are decidedly CyberPunk,whilst props,robot,weaponry and action sequences are mired deep in video game references...detailed and trendy but not original or groundbreaking by any standard.
5. Self mutilation and graphic injuries is another attempt to tick the trendy boxes...the time could have been better spent developing the character.
6. this is,in the end,just another alien movie - it would have been just another zombie movie if it had zombies in it instead of aliens - but it is cliché none the less.
7. Predator had only one alien,with a lot less screen time given,yet its character was infinitely more developed than 2.5 million aliens we saw in this movie from start to finish.
Weapons,costumes and CG explosions do not automatically make for a good movie...it isn't terrible to watch because it has its moments,but overall it under-delivered.
I think that achieving the level of suspense from previous Alien movies
was a tall order,simply because you cannot go on repeating the same
scenario over and over again.
W.S. Anderson made a brave attempt to do a movie based not so much on the 2 franchises,but on the concept from a comic book instead...he also did make every effort to provide continuity and consistency with other alien and predator movies,but it was difficult to marry the two.
AvP at least has heaps of handcrafted art carved into the movie sets,it has bags of eye-candy not previously seen in any of the original movies - but was ruined by unconvincing characters/acting.
Although considerable screen time was given to character build-up,the viewer doesn't get to bond with either one of them.
The predator from the first movie also possessed hell of a lot more mystique and personality,compared to the ones in AvP.
All in all,Avp it makes for a good comic book to cinema conversion,and it looks very good.
8 out of 10 from me

Want to see what I painted yesterday? Three new paintings have gone up in the Jellypark Store which I did on Saturday while the boys were out and I had a nice quiet house to myself. I do draw an awful lot of fairies but I can't resist them, not sure why as I was never a girlie sort of girl at all.
This picture reminds me of jumping in crunchy leaves as a kid, is anything more tempting than a huge pile of crisp autumn leaves? Joy of being a parent means you can still do it but mine are getting a older now so not sure how much longer I can get away with that.
There is a new painting in the shop too of a little boy playing football in the park. he is wearing an Arsenal kit - well no surprises there!


Local radio 'needs to find new ways to reach audiences'
In 20 years local commercial radio has gone from 40% of the market to less than 25%, and many stations have disappeared or been absorbed into consolidated "network centres".
With the majority of commercial stations reducing their local output, in some areas the BBC has been the only remaining local broadcaster.
Chris Burns, head of audio and digital for BBC England, said in the future content could be delivered in "bite-sized form" using tools such as the BBC Sounds service.

Yuliy Tsank, Miguel Eckstein; Optimal point of fixation to faces for vision with a simulated central scotoma. Journal of Vision 2015;15(12):933. doi: 10.1167/15.12.933.
Download citation file:
© ARVO (1962-2015); The Authors (2016-present)
When identifying a face the majority of humans initially look at a point of fixation (just below the eyes) that optimizes perceptual performance as predicted by a theoretical foveated ideal observer (Peterson & Eckstein, 2012). Here, we use a simulated scotoma paradigm to investigate the potential effects of macular degeneration on human optimal points of fixation (OPF) in face identification and compare these to the predictions of a foveated ideal observer with a central scotoma (S-FIO). We also evaluate observers' ability to adapt to the scotoma and learn new initial fixation strategies to optimize recognition performance. Methods: Seven observers completed a 1 of 10 face (15 deg) identification task in luminance noise with a gaze contingent display which simulated a central scotoma (radius = 8 deg). In the first study, observers made free eye movements in eight alternating blocks (1000 trials) with face viewing times of 350ms and 1500ms. In the second study, we assessed the OPFs by having observers fixate 1 out of 4 horizontally centered positions on the face (~375 trials for forehead, eyes, nose, and mouth in random order) for 350ms. Finally, observers repeated the free eye movement study. Results: The human forced fixation study showed that the simulated scotoma shifted the OPF downwards toward the tip of the nose (p < 0.05) which was predicted by the S-FIO model. However, surprisingly, observers failed to change their eye movement strategy (first and third studies) to initially fixate the new scotoma-induced optimal point of fixation. Conclusions: Our findings show unlike object following and search tasks (Kwon et al, 2013 ), humans have difficulty adapting to the scotoma and re-learning optimal fixations for face identification. Results show the potential use of the S-FIO as a benchmark to evaluate changes in OPFs for humans with low vision disorders.

Most cases of bone spurs do not cause any signs or symptoms.
You may not even be aware of your bone spurs until an X-ray for another condition reveals the growths.
Rarely, bone spurs may lead to pain and restricted movements in your joints if they rub against other bones.
Specific symptoms vary and are based on where the bone spurs are located.
Knee: Bone spurs in your knees may cause pain when you try to extend or bend your leg. The bony growths may intervene with the bones and tendons that keep your knee operating smoothly.
Spine: Bone spurs on your spinal vertebrae may cause narrowing of the space that holds your spinal cord. These bone spurs may squeeze or pinch the spinal cord or its nerve roots, leading to weakness or numbness in your arms or legs.
Hip: Bone spurs can cause pain while moving your hip, although pain may also be felt in your knee. Depending on their location, bone spurs decrease the range of motion in your hip joint.
Shoulder: Bone spurs can rub against your rotator cuff, a group of muscles and tendons that help control the shoulder movements. This can lead to swelling (tendinitis) or a rotator cuff tear.
Fingers: Bone spurs in the fingers appear as hard lumps under your skin, and make the finger joints look knobby.
Schedule an appointment with your doctor if you feel pain or swelling in one or more of your joints or if there is difficulty in moving a joint.
Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent or slow down further damage to the joints.
The most common cause for the formation of bone spurs is damage in the joints caused by osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis results in damage to the cartilage, which acts as a cushion between two bones and allows easy movement of the joint.
In response to this, your body starts recovering the loss by forming new bone around the damaged joint.
This new bone forms as a projection called a bone spur.
There are several treatment methods for bone spurs.
If there is pain associated with bone spurs, your doctor will recommend over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol, others), ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) or naproxen sodium (Aleve, others).
The surgical removal of bone spurs that limit your range of motion or impinge on your nerves will be advised.
Physical therapy exercises may be advised to strengthen the muscles surrounding the affected joint and improve its range of motion.

Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala on Tuesday at a virtual conference meeting raised fresh concerns about vaccine equity.
WTO DG, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala calls for vaccine equity
Omicron variant raises vaccine equity concerns for the former Nigerian minister.
The meeting where she made the speech was scheduled to hold physically but moved online due to concerns about the emergence of the newly discovered variant of the coronavirus. She mentioned that the new situation raises global concerns over equity in the availability of vaccines since the vaccine response began.
The former Nigerian minister was responding to questions from journalists covering the event which was for the highest calibre, minister-level meeting of the WTO ranks that was meant to hold at a physical venue in Geneva.
“We need to use all tools at our disposal to make sure we solve this problem of access to vaccines. This is a call for us to move faster and that is why we are not waiting for a Ministerial Conference, we are just going to push along. We have one goal in common, which is to save lives. We need to use all tools at our disposal to make sure we solve this problem of access to vaccines,” she opined.
Although she also conceded that the issue was complicated over the intellectual property issues that are surrounding the production of the vaccines. She however promised that the organization is already working on a waiver that would make that easier.

Getting ready for your big day is stressful enough, so why spend your entire paycheck on a dress you’ll probably only wear once? More labels than ever before are offering affordable wedding dresses that look just as great as a million dollar gown. Here, some of the best places to snag your dream dress for less.
If you’re looking for a wedding dress that has a lot of detail, Anthropologie’s bridal line, BHLDN, has great great options. The site boasts everything from art deco maxi dresses priced under $300 to off-the-shoulder boho gowns under $2,000. The label also sells things like adorable cat-themed cake toppers and floral table numbers, so you can really make it your one-stop shop for all your wedding needs.
The fast-fashion retailer recently made waves for creating a $300 dupe for Kate Middleton's iconic Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen wedding dress. The fun, however, does not stop there: the recently launched bridal shop has wedding guest ensembles, bridesmaid dresses, flower girl tutus, and yes, bridal gowns. The best part is that it's all mega affordable.
Did you know that you can buy your wedding dress at Nordstrom? Well, you do now. Starting at $162, Nordstrom has a wide array of styles and designers to appease any bride on a budget. Even just browsing through the options will make the most frugal heart beat.
Reformation makes clothes with a cool-girl edge—that are also as environmentally friendly as possible. Think: bodysuits and jumpsuits made of Tencel, a fabric regenerated from wood cellulose. The brand also has an array of wedding and celebratory dresses for the eco-conscious bride, with prices as low as $268 to $648. You’ll find classic cap-sleeved lace dresses and modern two-pieces crafted of silk charmeuse.
Kite and Butterfly
Based in Hollywood, Kite and Butterfly takes inspiration from Parisian style mixed with a bohemian aesthetic. The Australian sisters behind the eponymous label use materials like French lace to craft beautiful, timeless gowns. Most of them verge on the traditional bridal look, so if you’re looking for something classic, this is a great option. Price-wise, most of Kite and Butterfly’s dresses retail from $1,000 to under $2,000. The biggest trend for 2017? “Tiered boho fuffle French lace dresses with whimsical sleeves and elegant vintage tiaras from the 1920s,” the sisters tell Allure.
“We're seeing brides really interested in getting back to solid fabrics like mikado and crepe, and moving away from the more sheer fabrics like tulle,” Molly Kang, the founder of Floravere, tells Allure. “They want more sleek or structured gowns for their upcoming weddings in 2017.” This newly-launched, direct-to-consumer line lets customers try on samples of their affordable wedding dresses, like the architectural H. Golightly for $45, which will then be reimbursed after purchase. After you've selected the style, you can choose to customize the dress to fit your body, from raising the waistline to add or take away pockets and even monogram the inside of your bodice. Prices start at $1,550 and go up to $3,550.
While you may know ASOS as your favorite online retailer for easy-to-wear tees and tried-and-true jeans, the British e-tailer has its own in-house bridal line. The brand also offers accessories, like faux pearl crown headbands and pearl earrings, and even lingerie to go with your perfect dress.

When I stepped onto the 1st tee at Rosebud Country Club this morning, I was gripped by deja vous. ¬†Having played Rosebud‚??s South Course yesterday, and not for the first time on this trip been well and truly beaten, today we tried to get one back on the place by tackling the North Course ‚?? which looked very similar (hence the deja vu), if not a little harder. ¬†If I was being entirely honest ‚?? and I always am ‚?? the front 9 (the Green 9) could easily have been pulled straight from little brother South. ¬†Pleasant without being too challenging. ¬†The fairways are wide; the bunkering mild; and the greens, for the most part, gentle (albeit slippery). ¬†Michael and I hardly tore it up ‚?? but that‚??s by the by. ¬†The back 9 (the Red 9), I‚??m pleased to report was more my type of course, demanding pretty careful shot selection off the tee (particularly if you hit a draw, because there are a few dogleg rights) and into the green. ¬†There were more elephants in the Red greens too, aggravating Michael‚??s putting woes (he had 44 today, including putts from the fringe) and, to a lesser extent, mine.
My take on Rosebud is that it must cater pretty well to its constituents. ¬†If you‚??re 20 years old, hit the ball 300 metres off the tee and play off a 1.2 handicap, playing your golf down the road at one of the championship courses on the Peninsula might make more sense than Rosebud. ¬†But not everyone‚??s Tiger Woods, and for a lot of people ‚?? certainly a good few people that we‚??ve met, particularly back home in NZ ‚?? there‚??s a lot to be said for benign golf played in pleasant surroundings, where one doesn‚??t have to spend 10 minutes after every tee shot looking for that wee white thing. ¬†God knows I‚??ve spent enough time doing that this year to last me a lifetime. ¬†A reflection that takes me to another. ¬†Bare with me. ¬†
When I was a whippersnapper, growing up playing golf on Saturday mornings after short tennis and before football, one of life‚??s great pleasures was finding a new golf ball in the rough. ¬†And one of life‚??s great tragedies was farewelling a recently purchased (or gifted, or even won) ball before its time. ¬†Devastating. ¬†I wondered at the time whether the force of these emotions would subside as I grew longer in the tooth; surely the rollercoaster, like most things as you grow older, would mellow. ¬†Not a bit of it. ¬†Having found a couple of brand new Titleist Pro V1s in recent days ‚?? and lost a couple to balance the equation ‚?? I can say with utter sincerity that the rollercoaster is as thrilling as ever. ¬†Entirely irrational, because I‚??ve probably got more golf balls than I know what to do with. ¬†Pavlovian conditioning, perhaps? ¬†(Didn‚??t pay a huge amount of attention in Psyc 104 all those years ago, so this suggestion may be well off the mark). ¬†You may think I‚??m mad. ¬†You may be right. ¬†But when I find a new Pro V1 the flame of excitement still burns as brightly as it did all those years ago. ¬†
Speaking of emotional rollercoasters, I might also share with you the happenings of our afternoon spent doorknocking along the Mornington Peninsula, hoping to catch someone at a weak moment that would let us rest our heads at their establishment for a night (gratis). ¬†On the back of a couple of minor successes (the good people at the Riviera Motel in Lakes Entrance, and at Rosebud Caravan Park in, erm, Rosebud, kindly put us poor souls up without charge), our tails were up. ¬†When you‚??re spending 365 days on the road, you can‚??t very well pay for accommodation, can you? ¬†Certainly not on our budget. ¬†So. ¬†A‚?? doorknocking we went. ¬†It didn‚??t go well, to the point where Mike got increasingly despondent but by some freaky force of nature I fed off his despondence to become more optimistic and enthusiastic as the sun lowered itself over the bay. ¬†Jekyll and Hyde, if you like. ¬†I found myself telling our story to what seemed like scores of hoteliers, while my sidekick smiled obligingly and tried to look like he wasn‚??t going to slit his wrists when we exited with tails between our legs like a pair of recently scolded Labradors. ¬†
By about the 14th rejection, we eventually called it quits. ¬†I‚??ve never had a day like that before, and maybe never will. ¬†Strangely the experience was an enjoyable one; certainly it was a position I‚??d never pictured myself in, and in a way I felt like the happenings of this afternoon were happenings for someone else, not me. ¬†But what doesn‚??t kill you makes you stronger. ¬†And by happy coincidence we now find ourselves in the company of a good bunch of people in Mornington, courtesy of www.couchsurfers.org. ¬†
Rich and his girlfriend, Sally, are our kind hosts tonight (along with flatmate Jasmine). ¬†Mike and I are 2 of 6 couchsurfers in the house tonight ‚?? the other 4 all being French, a couple and two lads. ¬†Charles, one of the Frenchmen, is a character: resident chef and resident smartass. ¬†He loves to peel potatoes, the first person I‚??ve met with this particular passion. ¬†Tonight‚??s dinner is bubbling away under Charles‚?? watchful eye, while the others practice their tightrope walking skills outside in the garden. ¬†It‚??s a mild night here, and I couldn‚??t be more content. ¬†Playing astronomically good golf courses during the day, then relaxing with down to earth backpackers (and locals) in modest surroundings by night is a contrasting but unusually exciting and satisfying experience. ¬†We‚??re leading an interesting existence at the moment, Michael and I. ¬†Couple this juxtaposition with our growing media profile over here ‚?? we were contacted today by the main breakfast TV show over here (Sunrise) and by Channel 10‚??s Sports Tonight Show, both of whom will be doing a segment on us next week ‚?? and life is truly surreal right now. ¬†We hardly have a dollar to our name ‚?? after having lived well for a couple of years as young corporate lawyers ‚?? but are tremendously rich in other ways. ¬†Life is full of contrasts. ¬†
P.S. Match halved 1.5 each: JP wins putting, MG wins Greens in Reg, Fairways halved (with a meagre 7 each). ¬†MG having lost the putting had the privilege of standing over a 4 footer (downhill, right to left ‚?? not his favourite) on the practice green afterwards, needing to sink 10 in a row before he could move on. ¬†It wasn‚??t pretty, and took a while. ¬†But he needs the practice. ¬†(As I do with Greens in Reg ‚?? 4 on the front 9, none on the back....!)

Loneliness and Depressive Symptoms during the COVID-19: the Role of Rumination
Download as PDF
Quarantine is implemented to avoid the spread of the coronavirus, while this act may increase people’s feeling of loneliness and depression. College students as a vulnerable group facing the dramatic change of social interaction are mainly studied. There are three objectives in this study. Firstly, we examine the relationship between loneliness and depression during COVID-19. Secondly, we examine the mediating and moderating role of rumination and its subtypes (i.e., brooding and reflection) in linking loneliness and depression. Third, we examine the role of gender in loneliness, rumination and depression. Method: 1258 participants that are mostly college students participated in any anonymous online survey. Results: Structural equation modeling showed that loneliness was correlated to depression during COVID-19 even after accounting for levels of loneliness before COVID-19. The relation between loneliness and depression was significantly mediated by both brooding and reflection, such that higher levels of loneliness during COVID-19 was associated with increased brooding and reflection which was directly related to higher levels of depression. Regression analysis showed that brooding and reflection moderated the loneliness- depression link, such that the association between loneliness and depression was attenuated for individuals with lower levels of rumination. While gender was not associated with depression severity, although females had higher rumination than male. Conclusion. Rumination is a critical risk factor for individuals who are most vulnerable during the COVID-19 pandemic.

3.2 JTS Ignition coil
Yesterday I had a problem of broken ignition coil. It happened to me for the third time. When I push the engine a bit, at high rpm, get the engine indicator flash and feel the engine not balanced. One or more cylinders less working. Burned ignition coil was found later.
The first time it happend in first gear, around 7.2k rpm. This was informed after we checked the car connected to the computer.
Yesterday, I swear, the engine was not more than 5k.
One thing to mention, I'm from Israel. Yesterday the temperature was quiet high.
Do you know something about this problem? Why does it happen for the third time? Is the ignition coil so sensitive? I wonder why it happes with no any protection before (ignition disconnecting or something).
The car is 159 ti 3.2 manual, 2008 model with 110 thousands kilometers.
I'd appreciate if you have any comments/ideas for that.


There are arguments among key industry stakeholders and Political leaders who have called for better tutorial for President Muhammdu Buhari either to appoint knowledgeable persons as aids or take more time to read properly Bills sent by the National Assembly seeking his assent.
They feared that the imbroglio and back and forth Seplat and ExxonMobil deal has exposed poor knowledge of the presidency on sections of the Petroleum Industry Bill which he the president signed into law.
While Seplat Energy PLC – Lagos-based oil and gas company focused on Nigeria – says it has become aware of news and social media reports “alleging impropriety” in the process of securing ministerial consent for Mobil Producing Nigeria Unlimited deal. “Such reports are wholly untrue and the company will pursue legal action against any parties involved in disseminating false information related to its business,” it says.
On Monday, Seplat said Muhammadu Buhari, president of Nigeria, approved that ministerial consent be granted to Seplat Energy Offshore Ltd’s USD1.28 billion acquisition of Mobil Producing Nigeria Unlimited from Exxon Mobil Corp.
Unfortunately and in a most worrisome move, the President again on Wednesday, reversed his authorisation of the acquisition of the entire share capital of Mobil Producing Nigeria Unlimited by Seplat Energy Offshore Limited.
The move puts the Presidency on the side of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited which had earlier declined the $1.3bn transaction.
On Monday, a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, revealed that President Buhari consented to acquisition of Exxon Mobil shares by Seplat Energy Offshore Ltd.
According to the Presidency, Buhari authorised the move in his capacity as Minister of Petroleum as a way to attract Foreign Direct Investment to the country.
But giving an update on the issue, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, hinted that Buhari had reversed the decision and the previous misunderstanding was because the “agencies involved in (the) decision had not coordinated well among themselves.”
Earlier, Shehu, said the President’s reversal of his earlier approval was in line with the position of the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, NUPRC.
According to him, the confusion over ExxonMobil shares was because “the various agencies involved in the decision had not coordinated well among themselves and having looked at all of the facts with all of the ramifications, the president decided the position of the regulator is to be supported.”
NUPRC had, in a statement over Buhari’s earlier approval of the assets acquisition, said, as the sole regulator, it is the one that could deal with such matters. It therefore said the status quo remained.
The statement from the Chief Executive of the NUPRC Engr. Gbenga Komolafe, said the Commission, in line with the provisions of the Petroleum Industry Act 2021, was the sole regulator in dealing with such matters in the Nigerian upstream sector.
NUPRC said: “As it were, the issue at stake is purely a regulatory matter and the Commission had earlier communicated the decline of Ministerial assent to ExxonMobil in this regard. As such the Commission further affirms that the status quo remains.
“The Commission is committed to ensuring predictable and conducive regulatory environment at all times in the Nigerian upstream sector.”
Seplat Energy Plc had, last February, announced an agreement to acquire the entire share capital of Mobil Producing Nigeria Unlimited from Exxon Mobil Corporation, Delaware, for $1.28bn.
The transaction involved the acquisition of ExxonMobil Nigeria’s entire offshore shallow water asset; an established, high-quality operation with a highly skilled local operating team and a track record of safe operations.
The NNPC Limited, however, has a pre-emptive right over the asset and had last month won a court decision temporarily blocking Exxon Mobil Corporation from selling assets in Nigeria to Seplat Energy Plc.
A Judge in Abuja had granted NNPC an “order of interim injunction” on July 6, 2022, barring Exxon Mobil “from completing any divestment” in a unit that ultimately operates four licenses in Nigeria.
Buharis’s Contentious Directive
The Nigerian Upstrean Petroleum Regulatory Commission, NUPRC, which os Nigeria’s energy regulator overruled President Muhammadu Buhari’s approval of a $1.28-billion purchase of Exxon Mobil Corp. assets, in a high-profile disagreement that may discourage investment in the country’s struggling oil and gas industry.
Hours after Buhari’s office approved Seplat Energy Plc’s acquisition of Exxon’s shallow-water business, the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission said the transaction is “purely a regulatory matter.”
In addition, its previous rejection of the deal remains in place, the NUPRC said in a statement on Monday.
The uncertainty created by the conflicting statements comes at a bad time. Buhari’s administration is trying to reverse dwindling oil production that the government blames on rampant crude theft and attract major investment into the sector that generates more than 90 per cent of export earnings.
“It’s not a good look for Nigeria when you’ve got this very public contradiction and in the meantime the two sides of this deal are still unsure as to what’s happening,” Gail Anderson, research director at consultancy Wood Mackenzie Ltd, said by phone. “That has a knock-on effect on other deals that are waiting on the outcome here.”
Buhari, who is also Nigeria’s oil minister, had consented to the deal in an emailed statement sent by his spokesman, Femi Adesina, earlier on Monday.
The president said the sale of four permits by Exxon to Seplat would bring “extensive benefits” to Nigeria’s energy industry.
NUPRC Chief Executive Officer Gbenga Komolafe said that sweeping legislation passed last year made the body “the sole regulator in dealing with such matters.” While the law states that the transfer of permits “shall be granted upon the recommendation” of the agency, it allows the minister to reject its advice.
Should the acquisition go ahead, it would give London- and Lagos-listed Seplat additional production of about 95,000 barrels of oil equivalent from the shallow-water permits that Exxon operates in a joint venture with the state-owned Nigeria National Petroleum Co. That would almost triple the company’s output.
The NNPC has been trying to block the sale and take over the permits itself. A court in the capital, Abuja, granted the state company an interim injunction on July 6 barring Exxon from selling the subsidiary that holds the assets, according to a statement published last month by Seplat.
The presidency, Seplat and the NNPC didn’t respond to requests for comment on the NUPRC’s announcement. Exxon declined to comment.
Before Komolafe released his statement, Seplat had thanked Buhari for his consent, saying the transaction would create one of the largest independent energy companies on the London and Nigerian stock exchanges.
Seplat said Buhari granted his consent under legislation adopted in 1969, which provides the minister with a greater level of discretionary power, rather than the reforms passed last year.
The lasting impact of the impasse on investor confidence “will depend on how long this takes to resolve,” Anderson said. “It could all be resolved tomorrow for all we know.”

A family's love is tested when heroes-turned-criminals are forced to make the hardest decisions of their lives in this unforgettably moving story of love, resistance, and the lasting consequences of the Second World War.
After. Santa Cruz, California, 1953.
Jean-Luc and Charlotte Beauchamps have left their war-torn memories of Paris behind to live a quiet life in America with their son, Sam. They have a house in the suburbs, they've learned to speak English, and they have regular get-togethers with their outgoing American neighbors. Every minute in California erases a minute of their lives before -- before the Germans invaded their French homeland and incited years of violence, hunger, and fear. But their taste of the American Dream shatters when officers from the U.N. Commission on War Crimes pull-up outside their home and bring Jean-Luc in for questioning.
Before. Paris, France, 1944.
Germany has occupied France for four years. Jean-Luc works at the railway station at Bobigny, where thousands of Jews travel each day to be "resettled" in Germany. But Jean-Luc and other railway employees can't ignore the rumors or what they see on the tracks: too many people are packed into the cars, and bodies are sometimes left to be disposed of after a train departs. Jean-Luc's unease turns into full-blown panic when a young woman with bright green eyes bursts from the train one day alongside hundreds of screaming, terrified passengers, and pushes a warm, squirming bundle into his arms.
Told from alternating perspectives, While Paris Slept
reflects on the power of love, loss, and the choices a mother will make to ensure the survival of her child. At once a visceral portrait of family ties and a meditation on nurture's influence over identity, this heartbreaking debut will irreversibly take hold of your heart.

Good morning, DFW-SIM members. This morning a house subcommittee began the review and probable major rework of the Communications Act of 1934 (rewrite 1996). It is ironic this effort began on the heels of the recent judicial decision on net neutrality and the role of the FCC on many of these matters.
The subcommittee and the FCC have requested comments from ALL interested parties. I think that every single SIM member has quite a lot at stake in how the modified Communications ACT will look. I hope we all agree that we must that ensure competition, consumer protection and fostering innovation should be the most important components in ANY rewrite of the Communications ACT. Folks, there are major broadband industries who will want to influence this update to their advantage. Many of these goals would absolutely be counter to the goals and interests of the consuming public, including private enterprise. We must not let that happen.
SIM Dallas should provide a letter with rational comments. We don’t have to make it ridiculously exhaustive, but of all people, WE should be heard. Agree? Would anyone like to join me in writing an opinion and getting our local body to get behind it? PS: I noted Joe Barton is on this subcommittee, maybe we could have a direct connection into this process and be sure we’re heard.

Rule number one: Ignore anyone who says being a vegetarian is more expensive than eating meat.
As a former student, I know that being vegetarian was one of my financial concerns upon moving out by myself. I soon learnt that it wasn’t the vegetarian substitutes that were racking up my bill, but the snacks and extras. This can happen to anyone’s bill easily, but maintaining self control played a huge roll here. All you need to do is source out the best prices for the right foods.
I was also concerned about my intake of vitamins in between studying and having some much needed down time. My speedy meals were either pasta and a jar of sauce, toast or a pack of poppadoms with mango chutney. Let’s face it, none of those meals were giving me any form of goodness or vitamins. No wonder I was constantly tired and in a low mood!
There are so many meals you can make that keep your energy levels up as well as your stomach full. And even better, they are simple, quick and super easy, and mostly cost under £5.
As a vegetarian, I can bet that you have heard the ‘meat gives you more vitamins than vegetables’ speil from your relatives. The endless comments about ‘always eating too much rubbish’ when you’re not eating a pepper like an apple.
Well, this post is all about proving them wrong. You can snack, meal prep and sunday roast the hell out of your friends and family, and prove to them that a true vegetarian really knows how to eat well, vitamins and all.
I really believe that you can make anything if you have even just two of these cupboard essentials. Take that from a graduate who is living like a student three years on.
I always make sure I have the following items in my cupboards, mainly because not only can they be the heart of a meal, but they are also full of the correct vitamins, protein, fiber and so forth that you will need for a happy, healthy brain!
- Chickpeas – packed with protein, fiber and vitamins. An amazing main ingredient in currys, or you can spread them on a banking tray in light oil, sprinkle some smoked paprika and garlic over the top and roast for 5-10 minutes!
- Kidney Beans – Vitamins, protein and antioxidants.
Fantastic in a chilli, on jacket potatoes or in a soup!
- Red Split Lentils – Iron, protein, fiber, folic acid. Good for maintaining healthy bones! I use lentils as a ‘replacement’ for minced meat, but it is amazing in a lasagne, chilli or even added into a curry!
- Brown Rice – fiber, aids digestion and reduces risk of blood clots. Can be used as a fried rice based dish, or aside something else!
- Tinned Chopped Tomatoes – Fantastic to make things from scratch- pasta, curry and so much more!
- Nutritional Yeast – This can be bought on Amazon or in Holland and Barrett, but is a perfect addition to almost every meal. I add this into pasta sauces, curries, cheese sauces and so much more. You can even sprinkle it on to of foods!
Nutritional yeast has a cheesy-nuttyness flavour, and is high in protein and added B12.
- Flax Seeds – Again, used much like lentils or nutritional yeast, flax seeds go in most things I make. These are packed with Omega 3, dietary fibre and nutrients, and can play a big part in improving cholesterol and lowering blood pressure.
- Mushrooms – great in protein, fiber and B vitamins. A.K.A, the best food in the world! Mushrooms can also be used as a ‘meat replacement’.
- Spinach – high in protein, vitamins and minerals, and very important for healthy skin, bones and hair. I replaced lettuce with spinach a long time ago in salads, and I will NEVER go back!
- Broccoli – high in both vitamins K and C. Vitamin C creates collagen, which forms tissue and bone and aids the healing of wounds. High in antioxidants, also!
- Red (Bell) Pepper – high in Vitamin C and B6 and packed with antioxidants! Another amazing salad topper, and even better baked!
- Cucumber – promotes hydration, high in vitamins and minerals and also contains antioxidants. Cucumber is great for a mid-study snack!

Rats. My suspicion is this is indeed fuel-related since the supply system is not monitored by the Engine Computer. You said it runs better when it's warmed up. That reminds me of a recall modification on the K-cars years ago where fuel vapors could condense in the hose going to the MAP sensor and block it. Your sensor should be plugged right into the intake manifold so it won't develop that problem, but that is the one with the biggest influence on how much fuel goes into the engine.
It's odd no fault codes set so far. Any chance the battery was disconnected? That would erase any codes.
The next thing is to connect a scanner so you can watch the sensor readings while you're driving and the problem is occurring. I can watch the oxygen sensor readings to see if they're switching between "rich" and "lean" about twice per second, but for the other sensors, I know what "normal" is, but I'm not experienced in watching them while driving. Engine performance specialists will recognize right away when a reading is wrong, and they will introduce artificial lean and rich conditions to see how the sensors and computer responds. You also want to look at the "long-term" and "short-term fuel trim" numbers. Ideal is all zeros meaning the computer is not adding or subtracting fuel from the factory pre-programmed values, which themselves are real close but only approximate for most conditions. You can expect to see plus or minus 2 or 3 percent, but you don't want to see a high number like 8 to 15 percent. Those mean the computer is really modifying the amount of fuel it needs by a lot, but it doesn't know why. That's what we have to figure out. A high positive number means the mixture is way too lean and the computer is commanding more fuel in an attempt to fix that. Low fuel pressure would do that.
For those cam and crank sensors, the better scanners have graphing capabilities that let you watch their signals. As soon as you see what normal looks like, you'll recognize right away when one is breaking up or pulses are missing intermittently. You have an ignition module too, but I'm familiar with that. Anything electronic is prone to failure just because of the environment it lives in. Heat, dust, and vibration are real hard on that stuff and their connectors.
Most of the other experts here will also suggest connecting a fuel pressure gauge so you can watch it while the problem is occurring. Pressure on Chrysler products doesn't have to be perfectly at specs like on some other brands. On my Grand Caravan, for example, when the pickup screen in the gas tank was plugged, the engine still ran fine with no symptoms down to 20 psi. At 15 psi it started to sputter. Normal is 45 to 50 psi, so that's quite a drop.
The other things to consider are ignition-related, but almost all the time those act up when the engine is hot. The crankshaft position sensor and the camshaft position sensor in the distributor often fail by becoming heat-sensitive, then they work again after they cool down for an hour. There was a common problem in the early '90s with worn bushings in the distributors on Dakotas. Those caused erratic ignition timing which caused running problems.

Biometric technology has many opportunities to change banking.
Learn how biometrics is changing the banking world.
Today’s technology has vastly improved security, especially biometric technology. We primary see this technology in smartphones and other mobile devices. However, now biometric technology has the ability to potentially improve various business fields, especially banking. Today, hackers have a lot of resources that can cause you harm, whether it may be identity theft or making fraud purchases. With biometric technology, we can improve the security in the banking industry in various ways.
Biometrics technology is a new and emerging automated technology that focuses on identifying an individual based on a physiological or behavioral characteristic including faces, fingerprints, handwriting, eyes, voices, and a lot more. This technology leverages the fact that these features are distinct and unique for everyone, making it very challenging to replicate or create a fraud.
The general procedure of how a biometric system operates is it first takes an image of the needed body part. It will then compare this to its database to ensure that the image is a match, and if it is, the individual is identified and confirmed. The banking industry is able to leverage this technology to ensure that the right individuals are accessing confidential items. This can drastically decrease identity theft and fraud. Here are some of the ways that biometric technology can impact the banking industry:
Biometric Fingerprint and Banks
Biometric fingerprints is one of the most used methods for user authorization. Recently Lloyds Banking Group, a major financial institution, has teamed up with Microsoft to help their users access their banking services through fingerprints and facial recognition. With this new authorization system, users can authorize payments, as well as, login, which significantly improves the security of the system. With this new system, banks are now able to provide more seamless security experiences for their users.
Wells Fargo and iPhones
Today’s iPhone allows users to access their phones with their fingerprints, thus slowly making long passcodes obsolete for these devices. Recently, Wells Fargo has implemented a new authorization system that allows users to use this fingerprint to sign into their mobile app to access their banking services. Instead of having to log in with a username and password, Wells Fargo leverages Apple’s two factors of authorization to speed up the process.
Korea’s Biometric Iris Authorization
KB, Kookmin Bank, is one of the biggest banks in South Korea. With the help of Samsung, they have been able to implement a new biometric system that can authorize users with their irises. They are able to leverage the new Samsung Galaxy S8’s camera to scan the user’s iris to give them access to their accounts. Previously, users had to go through a tedious multi-step process to access their account. However, with this new feature, their user experience has significantly improved.
Biometrics and ATMs
Ujjivan, one of India’s biggest finance companies, is planning to take ATMs to the next level. Instead of using your debit card to access an ATM, Ujjivan is hoping to implement biometrics to identify and authorize users. While some banks in the United States offer an access code through their mobile devices, biometrics could drastically improve the user experience.


Greece aims to attract between 500,000-600,000 Chinese tourists each year for the next two years, Tourism Minister Elena Kountoura said on Friday, while addressing an event at the Athens Chamber of Tradesmen. Chinese officials, she noted, put this number even higher at one million.
The minister was speaking at an event entitled Alitrip in Greece: Boosting incoming tourism from China to Greece" organised by the Athens Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) and the tradesmen's chamber to present the Chinese travel platform to Greece.
The aim, according to Kountoura, was to capitalise on the contacts between the Greek and Chinese governments, working in cooperation with all the agencies involved, from local government to private businesses.
Presenting the Alitrip platform - part of the Alibaba group - was Alitrip Vice President for European Markets Kai Cui, while 50 top Greek tourism-sector companies and agencies attended.
Given that the Alibaba "ecosystem" currently has more than 500 million Chinese users and the Alitrip platform is one of the largest in China, the company's executives believe that a target of one million tourists to Greece over three years can be met.
Kountoura noted that the number of Chinese tourists to Greece had risen almost ten-fold in the last two years, from 15,000-20,000 in 2015 to some 150,000 at present.
This is a significant increase even if this number does not yet satisfy us, given that the number of Chinese travelling to Europe are 15 million, she added.
A key to further growth in tourism would be the start of a direct flight from Athens to Beijing in the autumn, Kountoura said.
The minister also referred to efforts to open new tourism markets, such as South Korea, China, the Middle East, India and Brazil and rekindle existing markets, such as Russia and the United States.
In the last two years, the growth of Greek tourism was at 7 pct - or double the world average. In 2016 we had 28 million arrivals (with cruises) and increased luxury tourism by more than 10 pct.
We had a spectacular start to 2017, with prebookings and occupancy in hotels exceeding all expectations from all markets, she said.
Three million Germans will visit Greece for summer, according to a report by German magazine Spiegel.
In an article full of praise for Greece, the magazine writes that the number of Germans to the Mediterranean country is expected to be 1 million more than last season.
My sea, my sky, my culture, oh Greece! For another year the white and blue colours will enthuse millions of visitors, writes the magazine lauding the beauties of Greece.
This is where the journey to the most beautiful islands, the serene villages and the special locations will start.
The piece urges even more Germans to choose Greece as their holiday destination, pointing out the love that exists between Greeks and Germans.
Come with us to the most famous beach on the island of Rhodes and marvel the island of Santorini emerge out of the sea, it writes.

Some things to read while finding a better dance partner.
Before I get started this morning, I wanted to take a moment to thank the Admiral, morineko, Jordan, JP, Nicole and Noah for all of their work keeping the site active and current while I spent a week in Arizona. Because of them I was able to relax and recharge a bit, and the site should be better off for it.
With that said, we're 22 days away from Opening Day and Randy Wolf's bat appears to be ready. He pitched four innings, went 2-for-2 in his first plate appearances of the spring and drove in a run in the Brewers' 10-2 win over the Cubs in Mesa yesterday. JP has the recap.
Other notes from the field:
- George Kottaras caught Randy Wolf yesterday and went 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles and five RBI.
- Norichika Aoki went 0-for-4, prompting @Mass_Haas to wonder about the translation of his name.
- Jed Bradley retired the side in order in the seventh in his second Cactus League appearance.
- 11,682 fans paid to see yesterday's game, the largest crowd of the spring at HoHoKam Park.
- It was 80 degrees in Mesa yesterday, roughly the same as it was in Milwaukee.
The Brewers are back on the field again today, with Chris Narveson taking the mound as they host the Padres at 3:05. There's no radio or TV coverage to speak of, but the game will be broadcast live on Brewers.com. Mike Vassallo has the lineup and informs us that Wily Peralta, Tyler Thornburg and Francisco Rodriguez are also expected to pitch.
Meanwhile, The Official Site has a couple of video interviews from Brewer camp:
- Carlos Gomez talks about bouncing back from injury and the 2012 Brewers.
- Mat Gamel discusses moving from third to first base.
Gamel, by the way, scored two runs yesterday and continues to draw attention with his productive spring. Carson Cistulli of FanGraphs has Gamel fifth among all batters this spring in his SCOUT stat, and Cream City Cables listed him among March's most interesting stat lines to this point. Gamel is also the subject of one of Troy Patterson of The Hardball Times' five questions facing the Brewers.
Jonathan Lucroy is also mentioned in that Cream City Cables post, as he's been one of the most productive Brewers this spring. Marc Hulet of FanGraphs notes that he's also one of just ten projected regular catchers in 2012 with collegiate catching experience. Joey Nowak of MLB.com has a story on how having Lucroy and most of 2011's pitchers back gives the Brewers some continuity in camp.
Logan Schafer went 0-for-1 yesterday and is now only hitting .556/.579/.944 in ten games this spring. The Brewers don't really have a place to play Schafer at this point, but Doug Melvin told Tom Haudricourt the team is not considering trading him. Jack Moore of Disciples of Uecker agrees with the decision.
Rickie Weeks had a hit, drew a walk, stole a base and scored two runs yesterday. He was also the subject of the latest post in The Brewer Nation's "Brewers By the (Jersey) Numbers" series.
This is a big spring for Frankie De La Cruz, who is out of options, but it hasn't gone well to this point as he's allowed seven earned runs in his first 3.1 innings. Ron Roenicke told reporters he's still in the mix for a bullpen spot, though. The news isn't as good for Juan Perez, who is out of the hospital but still can't throw for a week or so as he recovers from a partially collapsed lung.
Away from the field, several Brewers worked together this week to collect toys for a local church in Maryvale. Manny Parra has a picture of the result.
In the minors:
- Chasing The Dream has an interview with 2011 fourth round pick and likely 2012 Wisconsin Timber Rattler Nick Ramirez.
- After a few nice days in Appleton the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers turned on the sprinklers at Fox Cities Stadium.
Today in predictions, projections and whatnot:
- Andrew Wagner of FS Wisconsin has the Brewers second in the Central, behind the Reds.
Baseball America has the Brewers finishing third in the Central behind the Reds and Cardinals, and missing the playoffs.
It's a relatively quiet day around baseball, unless you're a Royals fan:
Royals: Catcher Salvador Perez will likely open the season on the DL following knee surgery.
Today in former Brewers:
- Mike Cameron will throw out the first pitch for the Mariners' home opener on April 13.
- Nick Prill of The Brewers Bar celebrated Pi Day with a look at various Brewers with 314's somewhere in their stat lines.
- Takashi Saito gave up back-to-back home runs for the Diamondbacks last night.
The Brewers are in the middle of a strange stretch in their Cactus League schedule, as they play three split-squad doubleheaders and nine games total in seven days. The Reds also had a weird schedule quirk yesterday: They played a split-squad doubleheader with both halves at home.
How about some baseball economics? Larry Stone of the Seattle Times reports that the Mariners lost $7.3 million last season, and drew under 2 million fans to Safeco Field for the first time.
As part of the new collective bargaining agreement Major League Baseball has unveiled a new social media policy for its athletes. Both Craig Calcaterra and I are pleasantly surprised to see that it's a pretty forward thinking, encouraging document.
Here's a reminder of how quickly everything we discuss here can become a side note to something far more important: Big League Stew has pictures of players and spectators at a Mexican League game diving for cover after gunfire erupted nearby.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go outside.


Connecting state and local government leaders
Some policies allow students an extra year to participate in both academics and athletics, other measures focus entirely on sports.
Students in Kentucky whose academic—and athletic—careers were disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic could have the option for a do-over under legislation approved Tuesday by state lawmakers.
The bill, passed unanimously by the Senate and by a wide margin in the House, would allow students of all ages to remain at their current grade level next year to retake or supplement classes they took virtually. The measure would also give students an additional year of athletic eligibility. If signed into law, local school boards would have final authority over whether to implement the policy.
“This is an academic-first bill no matter what anyone thinks,” Sen. Max Wise, a Republican and the measure’s main sponsor, told YourSportsEdge.com. “We left local control with the districts to decide what is best for the students in their district. But I want them to have that opportunity to let kids be able to redo this year if they want.”
The legislation, awaiting a signature from Gov. Andy Beshear, is one of a growing number of policies designed to give students and student-athletes the option to recapture a pandemic school year riddled with cancellations and virtual classes. Some measures, like Kentucky’s, focus equally on academics and extracurricular activities, while others address only athletic eligibility.
In Maryland, for example, lawmakers introduced a proposal to allow members of the class of 2021 to play high-school sports next year, provided they were academically eligible when they graduated. The bill, currently in committee, would remain in effect for only a year, and would allow students to return only to the high school they previously attended. Proponents said the measure was designed partly to give student athletes another shot at obtaining college scholarships.
“The students that were forced to sacrifice all or most of their final year of high school sports deserve the opportunity to enjoy their final season, as well as compete for scholarships that may have been lost due to their inability to play,” Del. Haven Shoemaker, a Republican and the House legislation’s main sponsor, said in a statement.
Others are more comprehensive. New Jersey in June passed a law establishing a three-year “bridge year” program to allow some seniors to defer their high school graduation for a year “to participate in an additional year of academic courses and extracurricular activities immediately following their senior year.” Students who opt in to the program must remain enrolled at the same high school they attended during their junior year, and can take a mix of high school and college courses.
“Affording high schoolers, whose educational experiences will look different from their peers as a result of this pandemic, a chance to make up for lost time is how we offset the impact of these unprecedented times,” New Jersey Assemblywomen Pam Lampitt, Mila Jasey and Valerie Vainieri Huttle said in a written statement.
Other states have adjusted athletic policies outside of the legislative process, including Ohio, where the High School Athletic Association loosened the standards that students must meet to remain academically eligible. The policy change, announced in December, waives grade-based eligibility requirements for the remainder of the current school year and grants student-athletes eligibility during the first grading period of the 2021-22 school year, subject to final approval by individual school districts.
“This decision to waive the scholarship bylaw through the school year is being made because we recognize that quarantines, differing educational models, varying access to the internet, etc. have made this a very challenging school year for our student-athletes,” the association said in a statement.

Exact planning guide for planning, design and dimensioning of collection devices and filter systems
Determining the amount and dispersion of industrial emissions is often very complex. In very few cases, measurably verifiable sources are available. The collection technology and extraction systems are often planned on the basis of empirical values.
In many cases this leads to a faulty dimensioning of the plant. The emissions are insufficiently captured, and there are considerable residual emissions (diffuse emissions).

Neural responses associated with cue evoked emotional states and heroin in opiate addicts.
Drug and Alcohol Dependence
Publication types: Clinical Trial ; Journal Article ; Randomized Controlled Trial ; Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov'tPublication Status: ppublish
Ten male opiate addicts, who were current heroin injectors, underwent positron emission tomographic (PET) scanning during exposure to a sequence of six alternating drug related and neutral video cues, on two occasions. After the second scan, each subject received heroin or placebo using a randomised single-blind procedure. This design allowed the investigation of patterns of brain activity during a range of self-reported cue evoked emotional states, both in the presence and absence of heroin. Self-reports of 'urge to use' correlated strongly with increased regional blood flow (rCBF) in the inferior frontal and orbitofrontal cortex target regions of the mesolimbic dopaminergic system, implicated in conditioning and reward. 'Urge to use' was also associated with highly significant increased rCBF in the right pre-cuneus, an area associated with episodic memory retrieval, and in the left insula, implicated in the processing of the emotional components of stimuli. Self-reports of feeling 'high' correlated with rCBF activation in the hippocampus, an area relevant to the acquisition of stimulus-associated reinforcement.

Epic in scope, intimate in detail, heartbreaking in its human drama, this is the first book to recount the history of the nobility caught up the maelstrom of the Bolshevik Revolution and the creation of Stalin's Russia. Former People is a book filled with chilling tales of looted palaces, burning estates, of desperate flights from marauding thugs and Red Army soldiers, of imprisonment, exile, and execution. It is the story of how a centuries'-old elite famous for its glittering wealth, its service to the Tsar and Empire, was dispossessed and destroyed along with the rest of old Russia.
Drawing on the private archives of two great families - the Sheremetovs and the Golitsyns - Former People is also a story of survival, of how many of the tsarist ruling class, so-called 'former people' and 'class enemies,' abandoned, displaced, and repressed, overcame the loss of their world and struggled to find a place for themselves and their families in the new, hostile world of the Soviet Union. It reveals how even at the darkest depths of the terror, daily life went on - people fell in love, children were born and educated, friends gathered, simple pleasures were cherished. Ultimately, Former People is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
