SAN DIEGO, Calif., August 23, 2019 – WBO light heavyweight world champion and former unified division champion Sergey “Krusher” Kovalev (33-2-1, 28 KOs) achieves a long time goal on Saturday with a fight at Traktor Arena in his hometown of Chelyabinsk, Russia, his first fight there as a professional.
If the “Krusher” version of Kovalev shows up, mandatory challenger Anthony Yarde of London, England (18-0, 17 KOs) will have a lot to deal with. Known for his power punching proficiency, Kovalev has blasted through the lion’s share of his opponents in both the pro and amateur ranks, and has 15 world title fights under his belt.Fight fans, arrange your weekend errands around an early card – we’ve got boxing for lunch on the East Coast and brunch on the West Coast. Kovalev vs. Yarde will stream live in the United States on ESPN+ beginning at 12:30 p.m. ET/9:30 a.m. PT.
Both fighters made weight, Kovalev at 174.5 pounds and Yarde at 174 pounds. The pair engaged in one of the longest faceoffs in memory. “There’s nothing behind it, I’m just not looking away first,” said Yarde. See it here.
The road to Russia for Kovalev and Ward
Kovalev steamrolled his way through this competitive division, set up by a solid amateur career. Then he ran into Andre Ward, and suffered two losses. The first was a highly questionable decision, the second a controversial stoppage. As Kovalev began to work his way back, he ran into Eleider Alvarez and suffered a stunning knockout loss in November 2018.
To their credit, Alvarez and Kovalev fought a rematch in February. Under the guidance of new trainer Buddy McGirt, Kovalev ignored the crowd and worked behind a snapping jab to put Alvarez in his place with a solid decision victory.
Yarde, an exciting young talent smashing his way through his opponents, is facing a huge step up in a fight against an experienced world champion on his home turf. It is the first fight for Yarde outside England. It’s fair to say he’s faced limited opposition; only one opponent was among the top 50 in a talent-laden division.
Yarde was named Kovalev’s mandatory opponent, and Saturday’s fight was schedule. Then Canelo Alvarez came calling.
Not eager for a third fight with Gennadiy Golovkin, Alvarez instead dangled the prospect of a fight with Kovalev in Las Vegas on September 14, the traditional Mexican Independence Day. Promoters and broadcast partner DAZN were reportedly all for it. But Kovalev and promoter Main Events required more money than Golden Boy Boxing and Alvarez were willing to give up. Kovalev also disliked the idea of bailing out on his long awaited hometown fight and paying Yarde as much at $1 million in step aside money. The match-up is still in play for later this year should Kovalev be successful in beating Yarde, increasing the stakes for Saturday’s title bout.
Kovalev and Yarde: Classic matchup of youth vs. experience
No one would give Yarde a chance against a prime Kovalev. But at age 36 with three losses behind him and a confounding series of disturbing behavior outside the ring without much resolution, Kovalev himself draws in doubts. But the Russian has a lot to fight for. He’s in front of his countrymen at home, with a legacy to protect and a potential major payday on the horizon in a fight against Mexican champion Canelo Alvarez. Worth fighting for? You bet.
“Everything depends on this Saturday,” said Kovalev. “ I have a focus for this fight and next I will be open for each fight, you know. Like for myself, what I see, five more fights to become the undisputed champion. I’m already old you know – 36 years old, just like a couple more years and enough,” said Kovalev.
The confident 28-year-old Yarde is only four years into his pro boxing career, with no appreciable amateur experience. But he’s got the right attitude. “I’m driven by challenges and again to me it’s just fun. Literally, all of this is just fun, going out there and fighting. From when the bell rings, nine times out of ten, everything disappears anyway. It’s just controlling yourself until that moment. Once I get going there is no stopping me.
“I’m going to be extra focused. Come Saturday night, my life changes.”
What is Anthony Yarde made of? Yarde will be made to prove his mettle. On the other side of the ring, Kovalev also has something to prove: how much gas is left in the veteran’s tank. How the script plays itself out gives fans a classic dramatic narrative in boxing.
Prediction: Kovalev by decision
Assessing the fight, Kovalev has the edge in experience, venue, and in Hall of Fame trainer Buddy McGirt. Kovalev knows what it’s like to feel the eyes of the boxing world on him and feel the pressure of expectations. He also knows what it’s like to live through and survive disappointments.
Yarde has youth on his side, which gives him the edge in conditioning against Kovalev, who’s often been criticized for gassing out in later rounds when he can’t stop an opponent. Yarde’s controversial trainer, Babatunde ‘Tunde’ Ajayi has arguably his best ever fighter in Yarde – but inexplicably, bragged they had done no sparring with opponents.
It’s in Kovalev’s best interests to dust off the Alvarez rematch game plan, refined with a few more months of work on it with McGift. Kovalev’s jab is underappreciated and nearly as hard a punch as his power shots. He can keep Yarde off with his jab and his skills all day, as long as he’s in good enough condition. He’s got the ring IQ to frustrate Yarde and draw him into making mistakes.
Yarde can punch, but you need to get to your opponent to deliver the damage. It will take Kovalev making a mistake like he did in the first Alvarez fight, leaving himself open for a punch he doesn’t expect. Yarde has the puncher’s chance, and it will be exciting to watch him try.
But Kovalev has far more to lose than the young Brit, especially the prospect of a fight against Alvarez. Forget the belts, Kovalev can end his career in the ring with Canelo if he gets past Yarde and that’s got to be highly motivating.
We agree with Kovalev’s nemesis, Andre Ward. No one knows Kovalev in the ring better than Ward, and he’s calling the fight for Kovalev based on his ring IQ and experience. We agree – Kovalev will prevail in this fight, setting up the payday he deferred with Alvarez.

Angelina Jolie’s wickedly entertaining performance fails to save Disney’s Maleficent from disappointing mediocrity.
It is a story with which we are all familiar. Disney’s 1959 classic Sleeping Beauty has been watched, and loved, by generations. Much like Wicked, the musical which tells the back story of Wicked Witch of the West, Maleficent is Disney’s attempt at giving us a classic story from a more villainous point of view. However, in doing so, Disney takes a well-loved story and mangles it almost beyond recognition for the sake of Maleficent’s unneeded redemption.
Maleficent is so effective as a villain because, in Sleeping Beauty, her motives are few. She is unpredictable, and wicked for the sake of wickedness. She does not require humanising, her appeal is in her immorality. Maleficent attempts to get us rooting for her through making her a woman scorned, then redeeming her through her attempts to rid Aurora of her curse. When Maleficent is truly wicked, however, she is utterly enthralling. Jolie’s performance is enough to make us love Maleficent for all of her heinousness, even without giving her a redemptive backstory. Her appearance in the baby shower scene echos back to the 1959 original enough to remind us of why we love her as a villain, and it’s thrilling. Jolie has such presence that we cannot help but root for her. Disney has shied away from giving us a truly evil Maleficent, instead choosing to water her down and make her more palatable. A bolder, and more interesting move, would have been to give us pure, sharp-tongued and exhilarating villainy.
However, the film’s problems lie not only with its character choices, but with its visuals. Directed by Robert Stromberg, who worked as production designer on Oz: The Great and Powerful and Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, does not lose his penchant for excessive CGI here. I am not one of those who dislikes CGI in all its forms- to the contrary, I admire it- but its use here intrudes on the viewing experience. There is so much CGI that it detracts from Jolie’s performance, and the few natural-looking landscapes are a palate cleanser for the eyes. It would have been refreshing to see such a dark story told in a natural setting as opposed to a phosphorescent wonderland. I found myself more impressed by Jolie’s prosthetic cheekbones than any of the Avataresque CGI backdrops.
Ultimately, Maleficent’s faults outstrip its merits, and what we are left with is a disappointingly forgettable take on Disney’s most iconic villain.

Nowadays cloud architectures are more serverless than ever before. We deploy our products using CloudFormation templates and deployment scripts, and the ideal architecture has no servers to maintain. We leverage serverless storage like Amazon S3, serverless computing power such as Amazon Lambda, why not using a serverless RDBMS?In August 2018 AWS released Aurora Serverless, a serverless relational DBMS to finally make applications that require a relational database fully serverless.Aurora Serverless promises to make the database autoscaling possible and efficient, but is it really a silver bullet? To answer this question we need to deep dive into the service operation.Let's start with the basics.
What is Aurora Serverless?Amazon Aurora Serverless is an on-demand, auto-scaling configuration for Amazon Aurora (MySQL-compatible and PostgreSQL-compatible editions), where the database will automatically start up, shut down, and scale capacity up or down based on your application's needs. It enables you to run your database in the cloud without managing any database instances. It's a simple, cost-effective option for infrequent, intermittent, or unpredictable workloads.
How does it scale automatically?Aurora Serverless can scale automatically using AWS provided metrics, so you are not required to design and maintain a suitable autoscaling policy. The service creates an Aurora storage volume replicated across multiple AZs to provide the auto-scaling capability. It creates an endpoint in your VPC for the application to connect to and it configures a Network Load Balancer (invisible to the customer) behind that endpoint. Aurora Serverless also configures multi-tenant request routers to route database traffic to the underlying instances.When the cluster needs to autoscale up or down or resume after a pause, Aurora Serverless grabs capacity from a pool of already available nodes and adds them to the request routers. This process takes almost no time and since the storage is shared between nodes Aurora can scale up or down in seconds for most workloads.The cluster scales up when capacity constraints are seen in CPU, connections, or memory. It also scales up when it detects performance issues that can be resolved by scaling up.After scaling up, the cooldown period for scaling down is 15 minutes, and after scaling down, the cooldown period for scaling down again is 310 seconds.This is a completely automated process managed by AWS itself, you can only set a range of ACUs (minimum and maximum values) as boundaries during the autoscaling action. By default, the autoscaling mechanism described above works only when a scaling point is available.A scaling point is a point in time at which the database can safely initiate the scaling operation. Under specific conditions, Aurora Serverless might not be able to find a scaling point. For example when Long-running queries or transactions are in progress, or when temporary tables or table locks are in use.In these circumstances, Aurora Serverless continues to try to find a scaling point so that it can initiate the scaling operation. It does this for as long as it determines that the DB cluster should be scaled.You can also choose to apply capacity changes even when a scaling point is not found. If you opt to forcibly apply capacity changes, active connections to your database may get dropped. This configuration could be used to more readily scale the capacity of your Aurora Serverless clusters if your application is resilient to connection drops.However, while the default behavior may cover a lot of use cases, there are specific scenarios in which Aurora Serverless will not be able to scale properly using only the AWS managed auto-scaling.In those situations, the DevOps can aid the autoscaling process by leveraging insights from the application.
How to aid the autoscaling of Aurora ServerlessIf your application operates in a corner case, and the autoscaling isn't performing good enough, you may want to consider some way to help the mechanism.In practice, you can increase the cluster "desired ACUs" parameter. The autoscaling will then continue to operate normally, scaling the cluster up or down as needed.An example of a quite common corner case is when an application needs to face sudden and sharp traffic spikes; in this case, especially if the allocated ACUs are very low, the autoscaling will not be able to react fast enough causing some of the traffic to experience errors.If the spikes are predictable, the Aurora Serverless cluster can be prewarmed to achieve optimal performances and avoid errors; the scaling operation may be initiated manually or in an automated/scheduled manner.In other situations, the application may be aware of an incoming traffic spike, and so, it can take action to change the "Desired ACUs" of the DB cluster.If the application has access to metrics that can forecast the need for a scaling operation, then you can collect and push them out as CloudWatch custom metrics. You can then use the metrics to setup CloudWatch alarms to trigger a Lambda function. In the Lambda function, you can implement your custom scaling logic.
A real-world scenarioWe would like to end the article with a real-world example.In this project, we had to make a system to elaborate and store data in an RDBMS. The starting point of the data flow is a producer app.We leveraged Amazon SQS to enqueue the raw data and trigger a fleet of Lambda function used to elaborate it and then save the results on Aurora Serverless.Since the process is human triggered, the cluster would remain almost with no traffic until someone starts a new analysis on the producer application. When the process started a huge number of Lambda functions reading the raw data and connecting to the cluster to save the result were started. Anyway, the sudden peak caused Aurora Serverless to scale up, but in the meantime, a lot of lambdas failed due to connection errors.To solve the problem, we used the producer application to scale the DB. We also configured the SQS visibility delay of each message to allow the cluster to scale before flooding it with connections.In the end, the solution turned out to be very performing: the autoscaling scales up properly after the external intervention and it scales down to the minimum at the end of the task.With Aurora Serverless AWS succeded in covering the last gap remained in creating Serverless application: it finally provided us with a Serverless RDMS.Now it's time to have a try!Let us know what do you think about this service!See you, guys!

Mighty Mite bass neck. Relic'ed.
Awesome neck but I got too many parts and projects laying around here. Sprayed with tint nitro and brass nut added. Vintage inlay stickers by Jockmo.
Experimented with relic treatment on this one. Frets are in great shape ( Leveled ) as well. Truss works fine and I had this baby set up with crazy low action. Small chunk taken out on the bass side d/t a screw up with nut removal.
Drilled for both standard tuners and American Standard/Deluxe Fenders. (Drilled by pro luthier) I believe I had Shaller standard tuners on this first.
Asking $130 shipped US 48. Paypal OK.
Couple pics of neck strung up. Click to enlarge. ( Hardware not included.)
Looks nice... What's the nut width?
1 5/8" I believe.
However, The profile on the MM P necks are slim. Slimmer than my 2012 US J-bass. Very comfy.

Touchless Solutions: Managing building entry and exit using face authentication
- Table of Contents
The spread of COVID-19 has brought various changes to our daily lives and awareness. Wearing masks, measuring temperatures, and sanitizing one’s hands have become more common to prevent infection, and people have become intensely aware of the importance of avoiding the 3Cs (closed spaces, crowding, and close contact) and physical contact within buildings.
Under these circumstances, Touchless Solutions—launched by Hitachi, Ltd. and Hitachi Building Systems Co., Ltd. and forming a systemized approach to touchless products and services for office and residential buildings—have recently been attracting attention. As the name "touchless" implies, these solutions are aimed at enabling people to move without touching elevator buttons or other common indoor facilities in order to reduce contact with other people and contact histories.
Enabling office entry without an entry pass by using face authentication
Among the several solutions that are available, a particularly distinctive one is Hitachi’s Image Analysis Service that incorporates face authentication. In the past few years, the accuracy of face authentication has made great leaps forward, making it a technology with broad potential.
This service offers many capabilities. To begin with, it allows building entry by presenting one's face at an authentication terminal mounted at the entrance doors of an office or residential building. In the case of an office building, this reduces the action of taking an ID card from handbag or a pocket, moreover even no need to bring the card. It can also be linked* to employee attendance management systems.
In addition, the service can be applied to visitors management system by registering their facial image data in advance, thus greatly reducing work such as that performed at a reception, including the handling of applications for admission and the issuing of entry passes.
Touchless travel to destination floors and analyzing people flow to avoid the 3Cs
By registering the destination floor for each of their “faces,” this system helps everyone avoid pressing an elevator button to call an elevator. In addition, it can reduce waiting times based on information exchanged during passage through the entrance gate and the designation elevator to take. This system also analyzes people flow and ascertains congestion states to control the 3Cs in the elevator hall and inside elevators.
Entry and exit to individual offices within a building can also be managed using face authentication, making it possible to minimize contact with common areas while moving from building entrance to elevator and then to the office.
Behind its ability to provide such services* is Hitachi’s expertise, which has a long history of operating elevator remote monitoring system nationwide as well as its building facility management system.
Instant image analysis using existing surveillance cameras
This type of solution delivers major advantages to not only users, but also to system delivery phase. It also has components capabilities of using existing IP surveillance cameras, allowing reductions in implementation cost that supported cameras are already in place.
With this system, image analysis is not processed at the camera. Rather, it is conducted at a separate edge AI terminal. A single edge AI terminal supports connection to up to four cameras, which is an advantage missing from other providers of face authentication services.
The system achieves an accuracy under specified conditions of over 99% and an authentication speed of less than one second. It also fulfills the needs for the COVID-19 era by enabling a single-camera processing of both face authentication and body temperature measurement, which is achieved by using a surveillance camera equipped with a thermal camera.
Shingo Kato, Senior Engineer in the Field Service Division of Hitachi Building Systems and a participant in system development, says "The speed of commercialization was accelerated due to COVID-19. Though we started the development of face authentication software in 2019, we released it far ahead of schedule because of COVID-19 and its surge of cases at the beginning of 2020."
The biggest challenge concerned was how to handle face recognition when a mask is worn—something they had not initially given serious consideration.
Kato continues: "The difficulty lays in the balance of raising accuracy with masked face and sustaining desire of security level. Through extensive demonstration testing, we were able to achieve an almost entirely satisfactory authentication accuracy in the new version, making this service a fantastic promise as a “surveillance” and “touchless” solution during the COVID-19 pandemic."
Likewise, COVID-19 has engendered changes not only in people's daily lives but also in the management of office and residential buildings.
*Linkage of elevators and attendance management systems is a customized option.
Note：Touchless Solutions introduced in the article operate exclusively in Japan.

Merchant Services : Reviews and Expectations
The primary costs to a merchant of merchant accounts are discount rate and transactions fees. The merchant account provider has a lot of latitude in the pricing structure.
Three tier pricing of Merchant Services is one of the most common pricing schemes. Using 3 tiers pricing, the merchant account provider groups the transactions into 3 groups (tiers) and assigns a rate to each tier. The three tiers are qualified, mid-qualified and non-qualified rates.
A qualified rate is the lowest tier. It is what a merchant is charged when processing a consumer credit card in a way that has been defined as standard by the merchant account provider. The qualified rates is what is usually quoted by merchant account salespeople. A mid-qualified rate is what the merchant is charged if processing a transaction outside of standard parameters. A mid-qualified rate may apply to rewards or corporate cards, which can comprise up to 40% of the cards used for purchases. The Merchant Services, of course, has no control over what card a consumer uses.
In case you are thinking of setting your own website to sell goods or services online, probably you are even thinking of accepting credit cards on your website. Accepting credit cards is one of the best ways to attract the impulse buyers and international customers.
There are two ways by which you can accept credit cards on your site. They are: Using your own merchant account: To accept credit card payments on your website, you will first need a bank that will allow you to open a merchant account. Check with the local banks for more information on this.
Accepting credit card payments on your website accords your business with a certain amount of professionalism. And, as mentioned earlier, your transaction costs are usually much lower.
Merchant Services : Reviews and What to look for in a Merchant Account ?
Merchant Account Aggregation is something when number of merchants is clustered under a master merchant account by a payment service provider. The credit card companies are quite keen on finding that their credit card accounts are aggregated or not. The merchants, who aggregate so, can also end up losing the services of the service provider without any prior notice.
There is basically no exact procedure through which it could be found that the credit card payment service provider is aggregating the accounts. It is just the matter of luck that they are caught otherwise the processes through which they are driven are quite vague to the customers and all type of charges are not explicitly shared to the customer while the account is opened in his name. Also, there are defined policies against the system of banks that plays it this way.
And if the requirements are not actually matching, this might be the case the payment service provider is aggregating your account. And under which along with the payment service provider, you could also be at loss in a number of ways which should be neglected by any means. It is just your ignorance which let you indulge into such conditions otherwise you can avoid such situation by properly handling the documents.

Prince Edward Island is Canada’s largest potato-growing province, famous for its red, sandy soil. But heavy rainfall and a vast system of waterways mean that farmers need to take precautions to stop tilled soil from running into streams and rivers. One important practice that supports stream environments and reduces the risk of soil runoff is planting strips of vegetation along the edges of farm properties and waterways.
These areas not only help to stop field soil slipping into waterways, but also provide food and habitat for a variety of wildlife and pollinating insects.
The Prince Edward Island Stream Restoration Project – conducted in partnership with experts from the Kensington North Watersheds Association and the Bedeque Bay Environmental Management Association – supports farmers in implementing practices that enhance biodiversity and keep the soil where it belongs: in their fields.

A ROADMAP has leaked out of Intel's glorious plans to take the mobile chip market by storm this year.
According to a slide found by Engadget, specifications for Chipzilla's entire fall collection of mobile chips have tipped up.
It looks like the Core i7s and Core i5s will end up for mobile use, but the 2.66GHz / 3.33 GHz Core i5-580M won't be the only dual-core CPU to look for in your Christmas stocking.
There will be a 2.8GHz Core i7-640M that turbos to 3.46GHz and the 2.66GHz / 3.2GHz Core i5-560M. These beasts will draw 35 watts.
There will also be a 15W CULV chip and there might be more of those in development than Intel has been talking about.
There is a high end Core i7-680UM that starts at 1.46GHz and a 1.33GHz Core i5-560UM, plus a 25W 2.26GHz Core i7-660LM low voltage chip.
All of these dual-core chips will have on-die Intel HD Graphics until Intel's 32nm "Huron River" platform appears next year. According to the roadmap that is when we will see WiMAX, WiDi and Intel Bluetooth.
There is also a new idea that Intel calls Zero Power ODD, which promises a power-saving sleep mode for optical disks drives. Intel thinks that it will provide enough battery life to play two full Blu-ray discs on a single charge.
We are hoping to collar Intel about all of this at Computex. µ

The Hoffman Center is the embodiment of Intelligent Medicine. Located in Midtown Manhattan, it’s a virtual living laboratory for the healing principles set forth in Dr. Hoffman’s radio show, podcasts, articles, lectures and books. For over 30 years, patients with a wide gamut of challenging medical problems have achieved remarkable recoveries using the best of natural medicine, judiciously combined with high-tech innovations. Breakthroughs are often achieved even after patients have consulted a myriad of mainstream specialists and holistic practitioners. Key modalities include lifestyle modification, customized diets, detoxification, oral and intravenous supplementation, and custom-compounded bio-identical hormones.
The Hoffman Center prides itself on its approach to wellness, emphasizing precise nutritional and metabolic assessment tools, culminating in a program that will maximize your well-being and lifespan potential.
At your first visit you will meet with Dr. Hoffman for a consultation and a physical examination. He will take an extensive history and review any tests that you bring to the visit, and order the tests that he will need to develop your treatment plan. Patients also visit with the Center’s nutritionist Leyla Muedin RD, MS, for a complete diet assessment. Upon completion of your tests, you will return to the Center for an extensive results visit to formulate your therapeutic program. A pathway is also available for economical, independent consultation with Leyla for advice about diet and supplements–you need not be a medical patient to avail yourself of her services.
776 Sixth Avenue
New York, New York 10001
“I’ve been a patient of Dr. Hoffman’s and if not for him we probably wouldn’t have our first born or probably be married at this time. He is now a straight A fifth grade student and a star soccer player! Our journey started 12 years ago when we were handed an adoption card saying this is our only chance. We took the train from DC to NY on the advice of a friend. Thanks to Dr. Hoffman we now have two beautiful children!!! Dr. Hoffman is soooo far in front of the usual medical profession that’s hard to comprehend.”
“Perhaps the best medical diagnostician in New York City. Professional and caring as well. Excellent choice for those seeking a holistic/alternative physician who also uses traditional medicine to help his patients.”
“I think Dr. Hoffman is excellent. I was very sick, had no idea what was wrong with me. Tired, exhausted really, aches, pains, swollen joints. I had gone to many doctors for 2 years. All put me on a rx and referred me to another specialist. I was told had arthritis, fibromyalgia, many different things, none right. Dr. Hoffman spent more time with me than any doctor I had seen. Very quickly he told me I most likely had Gluten Allergy. He did tests to confirm this and rule out other diseases. Gave me nutrition advice and vitamins. I feel wonderful and owe it all to him. I never felt like he was making me buy anything. I highly recommend him. If you don’t have your health you have nothing and I owe mine to him. No prescriptions, just nutrition and vitamins.”
“I am often too busy lately to comment individually, but I want to let you know your podcasts and Saturday show have been OUTSTANDING! SO informative. I deeply appreciate your combing through the research and making recommendations, suggestions etc based on SCIENCE instead of the politically correct health view at the moment. I am impressed that you are willing to modify your views as we learn more about different aspects of nutrition and the body – instead of becoming hardened into a position a la Ancel Keys and others. I continue to recommend your podcasts to numerous people who are not being helped as they should be by the mainstream medical community.”

1 of 2 | Humza Yousaf was formally nominated as Scotland's next first minister on Tuesday. File photo by Robert Perry/EPA-EFE
March 28 (UPI) -- Scottish Parliament on Tuesday voted to officially nominate Humza Yousaf as its next first minister.
Members of parliament voted 71-57 to select Yousaf out of a field of four nominees after he was narrowly elected to serve as the head of the Scottish National Party on Monday.
"This is a really proud day for me and my family," Yousaf said in a statement. "I hope it is also a proud day for Scotland, as it speaks to our values as a country as I stand here as the first ever Muslim to lead a western democratic nation."
Yousaf will be formally appointed with a royal warrant from King Charles III on Tuesday and sworn in as the new first minister on Wednesday.
Yousaf said he will appoint Shona Robison as deputy first minister, saying that her counsel and cross-government experience have been "indispensable to me" so far.
"I look forward to working together as we deliver for the people of Scotland," Yousaf said. "The parliament has given me the opportunity to help steer this nation's course, as we make the next stage of that journey together."
Robison said she looks forward to working in Yousaf's cabinet and expressed confidence in Yousaf's leadership.
"I look forward to working with him and our cabinet on the issues that matter most to the people of Scotland," Robison said. "I have served alongside Humza for a long time and I know that his leadership will build on the solid foundations we have been left by the former first minister and deputy first minister."
Yousaf said he wanted to protect his fellow Scots from Britain's cost-of-living crisis and promised to reform the National Health Services. He also promised to extend childcare, improve rural housing, support small businesses, and boost innovation.
"On Thursday, I will nominate the team of ministers who will deliver on those priorities," Yousaf said. "I will then set out more detailed policies to this chamber in the first week after the Easter recess."
A staunch nationalist, Yousaf has pledged to continue to fight for Scotland to break free from the union with England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
In his campaign for leadership he said that Scotland could jettison the monarchy within five years of gaining independence.
"My solemn commitment to you is that I will kickstart our grassroots, civic-led movement and ensure our drive for independence is in fifth gear," Yousaf said in his victory speech.
"The people of Scotland need independence now more than ever before and we will be the generation that delivers it."
Yousaf was nominated after his predecessor, Nicola Sturgeon, left Bute House in Edinburgh for the last time Tuesday after handing in her official resignation letter after more than eight years in office.
"Just signed my formal letter of resignation and departed Bute House for the final time," Sturgeon said in a Twitter post.
In her resignation letter, which is addressed to the king, Sturgeon said it had been her "pleasure" to serve him and the late Queen Elizabeth II as first minister.

Revolutional light sources
Our luminaires are made in Vaasa, the leading energy cluster in Finland. Therefore, it is likely that these luminaires utilize innovative technology that can boost your energy savings up to
These quality luminaires are made almost exclusively of aluminum. They utilize innovative design features and have patented heat transfer solutions. All the elements together quarantee a long lifespan and a broad range of working environments from freezing colds to extreme heats.
The actual light is produced with a unified LeS – Light Emitting Surface. The LeS chip has its components inserted into a unique plate to ensure maximum heat transfer. Our dual cooling system maintains the temperature of the luminaire close to room temperature levels. There is no need to make the luminaire large in size. An extruded aluminum profile, with a very high material density, enabled us to create a relatively small heat transfer profile that still functions in all conditions.
With versatile reflectors and optics we are able to spread the light evenly or focus it on a smaller area.
With our technology you cannot fail.
Here you can inspect the effect of ambient temperature to the expected lifespan of a product. As you can see, Array LeS technology outperforms LED in every temperature.
LumiTar has an Array LeS chip that can produce up to 220 lumens per watt. This is the current maximum value of efficacy that is achieved in tests. We continue innovating new solutions to raise the efficacy even higher. The best LED we know has an efficacy of about
Our luminaires can produce a CRI up to 98,5. This value can be achieved in luminaires which use power less than 80 W. The big difference is in powerful lighting. This is where Array LeS® technology can still produce CRi's up to 92.
One of the biggest differencies between Array LeS and LED is the fact that Array LeS® can carry light further than LEDs. We have installed our Array LeS products as far as 42 meters from the ground. This is, as far as we know it, almost impossible with current LED solutions. Array LeS® technology utilizes a different wave lenght and the light comes from one source, which means that it can be optimized with the help of different optics. LED technology utilizes multiple small individual light sources, which each have their own optics.
It is a known fact that LED solutions lose light intensity over time and the higher the working temperature, the higher the loss is. This loss of intensity does not occur in Array LeS® technology. When inspecting a span of 5 years, LED solutions that have been used 24/7 can barely produce
In lighting, heat management is important. To produce an even amount of light in different environments the luminaire needs to stay cool. This is why LumiTar has designed effective dual cooling solutions and patented heat transfer profiles. This enables us to give
With our Array LeS® technology there will be no flicker and also the glare is minimal. Think about the video quality with these luminaires – no flicker and amazing Color Rendering Index. Super slow motion is going to look extra good. Our every luminaire has this feature, without extra costs.
On the video you can see STADI luminaires installed next to

China National Offshore Oil Company Limited (CNOOC Ltd.) announced Tuesday that a new oilfield in east China's Bohai Bay has started commercial production.
The Luda (LD) 5-2 is producing at a volume of more than 2,200 barrels of oil per day from four wells, said CNOOC Ltd.
LD 5-2, with a water depth of about 30 meters, is located in the Liaodong Bay of Bohai Bay. It is adjacent to the producing field Suizhong 36-1.
The peak gross production capacity is 9,600 barrels of oil per day with 22 producing wells on line.
To date, LD fields, consisting of three fields, LD 4-2, LD10-1, LD5-2, have come on stream successfully. Owning to the joint development and sharing with Suizhong 36-1 of its producing facilities, the fields are expected to deliver better economic returns.
Liu Jian, executive vice president of the company, said that CNOOC limited discovered and developed the three LD fields independently and it takes only three years to bring them on line.
CNOOC Ltd. holds 100 percent interest of the field and acts as the operator.
Incorporated in Hong Kong, CNOOC Ltd is a 70.64 percent held subsidiary of China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC), China's largest offshore oil corporation.
CNOOC Ltd. is the sole vehicle through which CNOOC carries out oil and gas exploration, development, production and selling activities offshore China and internationally.

I met Muhammad Ali once. Shook his hand, looked up at his face, got a smile and one of those two-fisted, fake-punch, "put up your dukes" gestures from him. The man was old, affected by illness and shuffling slowly up a crowded aisle at the time, and you better believe I still flinched like someone had just tossed a hammer at my face. He's The Champ. He'll always have that kind of power.
Whenever I tell people about meeting Ali, the common reaction is something along the lines of, "Wouldn't it have been great to see him fight?" and I always nod. It would have been. Ali was a legend unlike almost any other. He was an icon, a symbol, the world's star. He wasn't just a boxer; he was boxing. Old videos just aren't enough.
We are fortunate, though, to be living in a time when there is an athlete who has a cache similar to Ali's. It can't be the same because no one can ever be the same as Ali - athletically, politically, socially or poetically - but it isn't far off. By sheer luck, we happen to be living in the time of an athlete who, like Ali, singlehandedly changes the perception of the activity he participates in; who is so good that men, women and children from America to Asia admire him; who has reached a place so lofty that he somehow defies both history and expectation.
An old sports cliché says that no one is bigger than the game, and maybe that is true. But Tiger Woods is surely close.
Woods' return to the PGA Tour today in Arizona has been long-awaited. He won the U.S. Open on the 91st hole against Rocco Mediate last June, then went into seclusion to repair and rehab the shredded left leg and knee that somehow didn't keep him from winning his 14th major.
Now he is back. And while some of the anticipation that has come with his return - ESPN.com had, at one point, a countdown clock to his tee-off time - must be due to February being the slowest month in sports, most of it is due to what Woods represents: legitimacy. To many sports fans, today is the first day genuine professional golf has been played in nearly nine months.
That is not meant to be an insult to Phil Mickelson, Vijay Singh, Padraig Harrington or Sergio Garcia (though I can certainly understand why it might seem that way). All of those men are fantastic golfers who are incredibly talented and have remarkable skills. They just aren't Tiger, the same way George Foreman or Marvin Hagler or Mike Tyson wasn't Ali. Without Woods, golf sales were down, golf ratings were down, golf sponsorships were down. Golf was down. It was reality.
Yesterday, golf rose again. Woods was supposed to meet the media at noon, but showed up nearly an hour late after finishing a practice round on the Dove Mountain course. It was the first time he had walked 18 holes since the U.S. Open. "I forgot how long it takes," he said in full deadpan. The rest of the press conference was a mixture of commentaries on the rigors of rehabbing from ACL surgery ("It's not a whole lot of fun"), the joy of becoming a father for a second time ("This is my week [away] to get some sleep"), the state of his golf swing ("Now I have a leg I can do it on") and whether his charitable foundation was affected by having a partnership with the disgraced Stanford Financial Group ("We're fine").
The most interesting part though, was when one reporter inquired about how the PGA Tour has been hurt by the wilting economy. PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem was quoted recently as saying he thought players needed to do more to help keep the game flourishing, and Woods was asked if he agreed with that assessment.
"I don't know if I can do any more," is how he began, before pausing, just slightly, and then moving into safer ground where he said that of course Finchem was correct, the players must reach out to the tour's sponsors and make them feel "appreciated."
And yet his first instinct was truest. Woods has already done so much for golf, transformed it from niche to something much more. It will never be the same without him as it is with him, but there is no shame in that. It is just the natural order of things when one of these transcendent figures steps away.
Someday, someone will have a chance meeting with a retired Woods. Shake his hand, look into his eyes and imagine what it was like to watch him wear a red shirt on Sunday as he stalked another championship. They will be awed and overwhelmed, and they will wish, more than anything, that they could have seen him way back when.
We get to see that. We get that chance. Two generations removed from the grace of Muhammad Ali, we get to watch another one: Another master. Another luminary. Another athlete so special, he may well define an entire sport forever.

Using the RoboRocker™
This video illustrates a typical RoboRocker program. The platform travels to the first tilt angle, pauses for perhaps 15 minutes for the culture medium to perfuse past the 3D cell or organoid culture. The medium empties from the uphill well to the downhill well. After this pause, the platform travels to the reverse angle and pauses for the culture medium to perfuses back through the 3D cell or organoid culture.
The RoboRocker is very easy to use. Just select the program and press Start. Each program can have up to 4 tilt angles, although just 2 tilt angles is most typical. The rate of travel from one tilt angle to the next is programmable from extremely slowly to a gentle rocking speed. Once the tilt angle is reached, the platform can continue to the next tilt angle, or it can pause at that angle for the desired length of time, from one second to many hours.
Run an Existing Program
Starting a run is simple, just follow these steps:
Select a program (A-F).
Choose the starting position.
Create, Edit and Save a Custom Program
Modifying your custom program is quick and easy with an intuitive touch screen. Follow these steps:
First, choose a program and then press Edit Program.
Select the speed, tilt angle, or pause duration to edit.
Program the values then press Enter.
Save the revised program then press Return to go back to the home screen.
Perform Diagnostics and Maintenance Testing
Run a test program by following these steps:
Select the tool icon for the diagnostics screen.
Hold down the arrow buttons to move the platform.
Run the test program by pressing the button.
More information about the RoboRocker is easily accessible on the touch screen.
Select the information icon in the top right corner.
View the model and software revision of your RoboRocker.
Select Operation, Programs, or Pace for quick guides on programming and using the rocker.


The all new Across International AccuTemp-160 series digital vacuum oven is the largest oven in the AT Series and is the perfect solution for labs in need of an oven that can process large amounts of materials at one time.
The gigantic 16 cubic foot oven chamber is made of easy-to-clean stainless steel which provides exceptional durability and ease of maintenance.
This oven comes equipped with 6 well thermo-conducted solid aluminum heated shelves – each with individual in-shelf temperature sensor, heater, and digital temperature controller – with the option to add up to 6 more low-profile, stackable aluminum shelves.
Optimal Vacuum Levels
The Ai AT Series digital vacuum ovens greatly reduce drying time of your extracts by maintaining a deep, consistent vacuum level within the chamber – making them the best choice for curing and converting oil extractions.
Increased Productivity, Quality, and Consistency
These vac ovens also produce deep vacuum levels that allow them to operate at the optimal temperature for allowing the purging process to occur rapidly. The result is an increase in the consistent output of superior quality extracts with a minimal processing time.
Additional Oven Features

Playtech have announced that they will soon be releasing the latest instalment in their DC Super Heroes Jackpot series, The Dark Knight.Based on the immensely popular Batman movie of the same name, the slot goes into direct competition with Microgaming, who already have a Dark Knight slot in their collection.So, how will Playtech’s offering stand out?
How it looks
Using images and cut scenes from the movie itself, and a stunning, dark and gloomy background that perfectly suits the source material, The Dark Knight is an exceptionally good-looking slot game.With five reels and 50 paylines, this slot is linked to the DC Super Heroes Jackpot Network, alongside the likes of Justice League, Batman Begins, Man of Steel, and Superman.Characters from the movie appear on the reels alongside The Dark Knight logo, which acts as the wild symbol and will replace for all but the scatter symbol. Playing card symbols represent the lower values.
There are two different Free Spins features here, firstly The Dark Knight Free Games Bonus, which triggers when bonus symbols land on the last two reels.Land bonus symbols on the second, third, fourth, and fifth reel and you’ll enter the Gotham City Free Games Bonus where the prizes are even bigger.If you manage to trigger the Batman Respins Feature or the Joker Respins Feature, things get really interesting.Both features offer a respin and the chance to trigger one of the four progressive jackpots, the Mini, the Minor, the Major, and the Grand Jackpot, the latter of which can be millions.An exciting slot, joining up with a network that is as enticing for its games as its progressive jackpots, Playtech’s The Dark Knight is going to be well worth a few spins once it’s released.
