Teens plan Aug. 22 benefit at Sinnissippi for Invisible Children
From press release
Two 14-year-old girls, Danielle Hall and Victoria Cox, have spent the summer before their freshman year in a different way than most. It has been consumed by their planning and organizing of a benefit concert for Invisible Children.
Invisible Children is a charity that benefits children in the war-torn area of northern Uganda. There, children are being kidnapped and forced to fight in the civil war. This charity helps build safe places for these children and their families.
Hall said, “When we weren’t texting our friends, we were calling bands and doing interviews.”
Cox added: “We’ve had so many roadblocks being 14. First of all, we couldn’t even drive ourselves to go meet people and check out venues.”
The teens’ hard work will finally pay off beginning at 3:30 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 22, at Sinnissippi Park Music Shell. The event will include performances by Dreams of University, The Fastest Kid Alive, At Cliff’s End, Set It Off and Action Madison.

We launched Black Sheep Cottage, the debut novel by Michelle Angharad Pashley, last night (Friday, 30 September), practically on Cinnamon HQ's doorstep, at the Hen Bost Bookshop in Blaenau Ffestiniog. A sizable and enthusiastic crowd packed the shop to hear Michelle read extracts from the book, share a drink and a chat, and, of course, get their copies of the book signed by the author.
Jane McLaughlin launched her excellent debut poetry collection, Lockdown last Saturday, 24 September, at the ever-friendly Made in Greenwich gallery. There was a handsome and very enthusiastic turn-out, the audience enjoying not only two extracts from Jane's book, but a couple of sets from singer-songwriter Bernadette Reed. As ever, our host, Irene Hill, was welcoming and eternally helpful, and we'd like to offer our thanks to her as well as all who came along to this wonderful, special evening.
You may have noticed, the Cinnamon web site has been suffering from gremlins the last couple of days … in fact, it was suffering from not being there at all when what should have been routine alterations to the web server turned into a crisis and a search around half the globe for the one man who could help us fix the probelm (I kid you not — and a big thank you to Armin Osmancevic for taking time from a holiday in SE Asia to bale us out).
We're to announce that the annual short story prize has been adjudicated. The competition attracted a large number of entrants, so deliberations have been long but enjoyable, with many fine stories to consider and weigh up. This year's judge, Cinnamon's own Adam Craig, had a tough struggle deciding the top places, but he's made his decision, and here it is:
Just one more Cinnamon reading before the summer break and it promises to be a particularly good one: Ian Gregson reading from his novel The Crocodile Princess and Omar Sabbagh reading from Via Negativa — both great books and both authors highly entertaining in person. Promises to be a standout evening … so why miss out?
The result of the EU referendum has left many people frightened, bewildered, and deeply confused as to what is going to happen to them, their families and livelihoods, this country, and Europe as a whole. The Artuo Ui-meets-Père Ubu rise of Trump as US presidential candidate only mirrors the Absurdist figures of England's Farage and Johnson and creates an inescapable sense that the world, once again, has gone insane. In the face of these uncertainties and threats, can one, small imprint respond? Can, and should, Liquorice Fish Books, even attempt to continue, or should it bow to the scale of these changes, admit its irrelevance, and disappear?
At Peirene Press, Meike Viervogel has been gathering signatories from literary and cultural organisations in support of Britain staying within the EU. There is a range of arguments on whether to stay in or leave Europe, but at Cinnamon Press we are with Meike and her colleagues in maintaining that any isolationist impulse is culturally destructive.
It was a tremendous pleasure to return to the Made in Greenwich Gallery last Wednesday (16 March), not least to hear Alex Josephy reading from her pamphlet, Other Blackbirds, but also to see Omar Sabbagh as we officially launched his extraordinary novella, Via Negativa. Alex brought a roomful of people to support her and they all stayed on, listened attentively and were utterly won over by Omar's reading – they bought plenty of books, by both authors, too. So, congratulations to Alex, but most especially to Omar. A wonderful evening.
The theme 'dark interiors' brought in a diverse and intriguing selection of microfictions and poetry, with a huge contingent that focussed on painful memories and disturbed childhoods. The strongest pieces were the subtlest; those that took an oblique look at the subject and produced something fresh.
Home again after an extraordinary — and extraordinarily intense — few months out and about, celebrating Cinnamon's Tenth Anniversary. Thursday, last, saw us installed in the Arts Centre Bookshop, Aberystwyth, with a grand line-up of authors (Maria Apichella, John Barnie, Mark Charlton, Matthew Francis, Ian Gregson, Hazel Manuel, Kathy Miles, Elizabeth Porter, Susan Richardson, plus Jan and, er, me!) for a marathon reading to an appreciative and enthusiastic audience — as you can see for yourself by going to the YouTube vid of the evening. It was a great way to round off our celebrations and a tremendous credit to Jan, who has guided, shaped, and nurtured Cinnamon Press into the respected and valued force it is.
Cinnamon Press is proud to launch a new website to coincide with its tenth anniversary. Over the last five years we've had new design and a great site generously provided by Armin Osmancavic and maintained by Cinnamon author, Adnan Mahmutovic. Earlier this year this lovely site was hacked and, whilst we were going in ever decreasing circles trying to remove the unwanted adverts for prescription medications, Sarah Willans came to the rescue.

YESTERDAY’S unique date of 12/12/12 was more memorable than most for a couple who met in Moreton.
For Sophia Scarsbrook, aged 36, and Martyn Brandrick, 42, from Falkirk, were set to get married at Ellenborough Park, near Cheltenham, on the 12th day of the 12th month of the year 2012, after a decade together.
They were one of eight couples across Gloucestershire who tied the knot on the eyecatching date, along with two civil partnerships.
The couple met when Sophia was living in Moreton and Martyn, now a Group Commander in Central Scotland Fire and Rescue Service, came to the town for a course at the Fire Service College. Although the couple, who have a two-year-old daughter named Gracie- Rose, moved to Falkirk six years ago, they decided to get married at Cheltenham’s Ellenborough Park as Sophia’s parents live in the town.
Yesterday’s ceremony was connected to Martyn’s proposal which took place last year at 11:11am on 11/11/11.
“I never told Sophia I was going to propose, but I decided on the date and time,” he said. “I decided wherever she was, I was going to go to her at 11:11am on that day.
“The theme of our wedding is ‘keep calm and carry on’ and I wore a T-shirt saying ‘keep calm and marry me’ under my uniform.
“He said he had visited the soft play area where Sophia and Gracie were enjoying a day out with other mums and toddlers and began to take his shirt off. Sophia went mad and couldn’t read the Tshirt.
Once she’d realised what was happening and said ‘yes’ there was uproar.”
Sophia and Martyn will be honeymooning in New York, USA and Cancun, Mexico.
- 12/12/12 is the last of memorable dates which see the same numbers repeated this century with 9/9/9 a hit for weddings for members of the emergency services.

PERIOD V. 1789-1861. NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT.
6. In 1819 a convention with Great Britain was ratified, securing to citizens of the United States, with some restriction, the right of fishing on the coast of British America, and establishing parallel 49o north as the boundary between the United States and British America, from the Lake of the Woods to the Rocky Mountains. The same year Spain agreed to relinquish Florida1 to the United States, on the condition that the American government should pay to citizens of the United States five millions of dollars, due them from Spain, and give up all claim to the present State of Texas.
Two years later, Spain ratified the treaty, and at the same time the boundary between the Louisiana Purchase2 and the Spanish province of Mexico was defined.
7. The president, in his annual message to Congress, December, 1823, alluding to the Spanish colonies of America, recently recognized as sovereign powers, declared that "the American continents, by the free and independent position which they have assumed and maintain, are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonization by any European powers." He also declared that it is impossible for the powers of Europe to "extend their political system to any portion of either continent without endangering our peace and happiness," and that "it is equally impossible, therefore, that we should behold such interposition, in any form, with indifference." This has since been known as the Monroe doctrine, the authorship of which, however, belonged to the secretary of state, John Quincy Adams.
8. In August, 1824, Lafayette came to the United States as the guest of the nation whose independence he had assisted in gaining with his blood and his fortune. He visited each of the twenty-four states, and was everywhere received with enthusiastic greetings of gratitude and joy. He remained in the country a little more than a year, and when ready to return, the president3 placed at his disposal a frigate, named, in compliment to him, Brandywine,4 to carry him back to France. Congress manifested still further their appreciation of his services by voting him a township of land and two hundred thousand dollars.
9. When the time came to choose a successor to Mr. Monroe, four candidates were in the field, neither of whom received a majority of the electoral vote. The choice then

3. John Quincy Adams, who had succeeded to the presidency during Lafayette's visit.
4 See p. 125, ¶ 14.
QUESTIONS. -- 6. What convention was ratified with England in 1819? What was secured and what established by this convention? When did Florida come into the possession of the United States? On what condition? What boundary was defined at the same time? 7. What is the Monroe doctrine? 8. What can you tell of Lafayette's visit to the United States? 9. At the next presidential election how many candidates were in the field?
CHAPTER VI. ADAMS'S ADMINISTRATION.
devolved on the House of Representatives,1 and that body elected John Quincy Adams, of Massachusetts, president. John Caldwell Calhoun,2 of South Carolina, was chosen vice president by the electors.
The candidates were General Jackson, then a United States senator, Mr. Adams, secretary of state, William H. Crawford, secretary of the treasury, and Henry Clay, the speaker of the House of Representatives.3
JOHN QUINCY ADAMS'S ADMINISTRATION.4 1825-1829.
1. EARLY in this administration the question of the supremacy of the nation over the state -- a question that frequently meets us during this period5 -- was again forced upon the people, by a controversy with Georgia concerning the Creek lands.
In pursuance of a treaty, obtained, without the consent of the Creeks, from a few of their chiefs, Georgia determined to remove these Indians by force from the lands they occupied, and in 1827 declared her intention to resist the authority of the United States, Which had been interposed, by the president, to protect the Creeks. The difficulty was, however, adjusted for the time, the Indians consenting to remove beyond the Mississippi, in consideration of a large annuity to be paid them from the national treasury.
2. The fiftieth anniversary of the national independence, July 4, 1826, was made specially memorable by the deaths of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, which occurred on that day. The coincidences of the lives of these eminent patriots were strikingly com-
1 See Appendix, p. 16. Art. XII., Amendments Const. U. S. 2 See p. 171, ¶ 2.
3 They had respectively, ninety-nine, eighty-four, forty-one, and thirty-seven electoral votes.
4 In the House of Representatives, thirteen states voted for Mr. Adams. see Appendix, p. 20.
5 See p. 165, ¶ 5; p. 197, ¶ 8; p. 198, ¶ 9; p. 227, ¶ 10, and p. 232, ¶¶ 5, 6.
QUESTIONS. -- Who was elected president for the next term? Vice-president? What is said of Mr. Adams's election? Chap. VI. 1. What question was forced upon the people early in Adams's administration? By what controversy? -- Give an account of this controversy and its adjustment? 2. For what is the fiftieth anniversary of the national independence memorable?
PERIOD V. 1789-1861. NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT.
pleted in the coincidence of their deaths. Both were early enlisted in their country's cause. Both were bold, ardent, unyielding patriots. Where others doubted, they were resolved; where others hesitated, they pressed forward. They were both members of the committee to prepare the Declaration of Independence, and they constituted the sub-committee appointed by the other members to make the draugbt of it. Jefferson was the author of the Declaration; Adams its great supporter on the floor of Congress. Both had been ministers abroad; both vice-presidents, and both presidents; both had lived to a great age.1
3. The policy of protecting home manufactures, by imposing heavy duties upon articles of the same kind imported, was carried to its height, under the name of the American system, by the tariff of 1828. All assent to the propriety of levying duties for revenue merely, but the principle of a protective tariff, nearly ever since the passage of this act, has been a subject of contention between political parties. Having the most of its friends in the manufacturing Northern and Middle States, and the most of its enemies in the agricultural South, it has proved a fruitful source of sectional strife.
4. This administration, more than any preceding it, fostered measures of internal improvement. State and individual enterprise took the same direction. While Mr. Adams was president the first railroad in the United States was completed; 2 and New York, chiefly through the exertions of her distinguished son, De Witt Clinton, opened the Erie Canal, which became the highway to the grain fields of the west.
5. The country had never enjoyed greater prosperity than during the presidency of Mr. Adams. The national debt was rapidly diminishing, and the national treasury held a surplus of over five millions of dollars. Yet Mr. Adams failed of a reëlection. The era of good feeling had passed away, and party spirit again burst forth with increased bitterness.
At the next presidential election, Andrew Jackson, of Tennessee, after a contest of unexampled violence, was chosen president, and Mr. Calhoun was reëlected vice-president.
1 Adams was nearly ninety-one, Jefferson nearly eighty-three.
2 The first railroad in the United States was in Quincy, Massachusetts, and was completed in 1827. The first steam locomotive used in the United states was put on the road from Carbondale to Honesdale, Pennsylvania, by the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company, in 1829.
QUESTIONS. -- What coincidences of the lives of Adams and Jefferson can you mention? 3. What is meant by the American system? To what do all assent? What has been the subject of contention between political parties? Why was the protective tariff a source of sectional strife? 4. What is said of internal improvement? 5. Of the country during Mr. Adams's presidency? Of party spirit? -- Who were elected president and vice-president for the next term?
CHAPTER VII. JACKSON'S ADMINISTRATION.
JACKSON'S ADMINISTRATION.1 1829-1837.
1. PRESIDENT Jackson, on entering upon the duties of his high position, removed from office2 many of those who had opposed his election, and appointed his political adherents in their stead; thus giving his administration, at the outset, a more strictly party character than had been attempted by his predecessors. This has continued to be the policy of each new administration.
2. In his domestic policy, Jackson was opposed to devoting the public revenue to internal improvements, and in several instances interposed his veto3 to arrest congressional appropriations for that purpose, believing them to be unconstitutional and inexpedient. His foreign policy was bold and vigorous.
The payment of indemnities for spoliation of American commerce4 was secured, and, except from France, without difficulty. This nation had acknowledged the justice of the American claim to five millions of dollars, but refused to make appropriation for payment. At this, the president proposed that reprisals should be made upon French property till the American claim was liquidated. Affairs seemed threatening, when both nations agreed to accept the proffered mediation of Great Britain. Meanwhile, France appropriated the money, and the claim was paid.
3. The subject of Indian removals5 had not ceased to disturb the country. First a difficulty arose between Georgia
1 see Appendix, p. 20.
2 During he first year of this administration, there were nearly seven hundred removals from office not including subordinate clerks. During the forty years preceding, there had been sixty-four.

4 By Denmark, Naples, Portugal, Spain, and France. 5 See p. 193, 11.
QUESTIONS. -- 1. How did Jackson, at the outset, give his administration a party character? 2. What is said of Jackson's domestic policy? Of his foreign policy? -- What trouble arose with France? What did the president propose? How was the trouble settled? 3. What is said of Indian removals? What difficulty first arose?

and the Cherokees1 within her borders, which was not finally adjusted till the next administration.
These Indians had made considerable advance in civilization. Contrary to law, as interpreted by the Supreme Court,2 Georgia attempted to drive them from their lands. The president and Congress sided with the state. The agent sent to aid in the removal of the Indians was General Scott who, by his conciliatory policy, induced them to migrate peaceably.
4. In the spring of 1832, a war, known as the Black Hawk war, broke out on the north-western frontier, with some tribes led by the celebrated Black Hawk, a chief of the Sacs.3 This war resulted in the removal of the Indians farther westward.
A campaign against them, by Unite States troops and Illinois militia,4 under Generals Scott and Atkinson, gained for the United States a large portion of the present Iowa and Wisconsin, and drove the Indians beyond the Mississippi. Black Hawk was taken prisoner.
5. Near the close of 1835 arose war with the Seminoles,5 under the famous warrior Osceola -- a war more formidable than any in which the United States had ever engaged with the Indians. It was seven years be fore the savages were subdued.6
The cause of the war was ax attempt to remove the Seminoles, in Florida, to lands, west of the Mississippi in accordance with a treaty, the validity of which the Indians denied. The war extended its ravages into Georgia and Alabama. Many of the Creeks joined the Seminoles. From their skulking places in the swamps and the Everglades, where poisonous vapors and venomous reptiles defended them from pursuit, they would dash upon the settlements to rob, murder, and destroy.

5 See p 22, note (See. IV., 2). 6 In 1842, during Tyler's administration.
QUESTIONS. -- Give an account of this difficulty and its settlement? 4. What war broke out in 1832 and where? Result? -- What farther is said of this war? 5. What war arose in 1835? Under what famous warrior? What is said of this war? -- Cause of the war? Where did its ravages extend?
CHAPTER VII. JACKSON'S ADMINISTRATION.
6. At the opening of the war (December 28), Major Dade and more than a hundred men were waylaid near the Wahoo Swamp, and all but four killed. On the same day, the United States agent, General Thompson, and five others, in view of the garrison at Fort King, were set upon, slain, and scalped, by Osceola and a party of Indians. Osceola thus satiated his revenge for an imprisonment he had suffered at the hands of the agent. Soon after, General Clinch marched from Fort Drane against the Indians, and, after defeating them, returned to the fort. The next February, General Gaines came to his assistance, and another action took place, in which the savages were again worsted, near Clinch's battle-ground. The following summer, General Scott marched into the Creek Country, subdued the Indians there, and sent several thousands of them beyond the Mississippi. The Seminoles continued the war. In October, 1837, General Jessup, then in command in Florida, seized the treacherous Osceola, whom no oath could bind nor treaties restrain, while approaching the American camp under a flag of truce, and sent him a prisoner to Fort Moultrie.1 The capture of their leader, though a severe blow to the Seminoles, did not end the war. Colonel Taylor2 pursued them into their almost inaccessible hiding places, and beat them in a hard-fought battle, December 25, 1837, near Lake Okechobee, in the southern part of Florida. After this, several able officers took their turns in pacifying and fighting the Seminoles, before they were brought to terms.3
7. In 1832, that terrible pestilence, the Asiatic cholera, made its first appearance in America, beginning in Canada, and thence sweeping over the United States.
8. This administration was more severely tried than any that had preceded it, by the dangerous dogma of state rights.
The relative powers of the nation and the state came up for discussion in Congress during the winter of 1829-30. Daniel Webster,4 then a

3 Colonels Taylor and Worth, ad Lieutenants Robert Anderson, J. E. Johnston, and George H. Thomas were among those promoted for gallantry in this war. 4 See p. 181, ¶ 24.
QUESTIONS. -- 6. Give an account of the massacre near Wahoo Swamp. Near Fort King. Of the action near Fort Drane. What was done by General Scott in the summer? What was done by General Jessup in 1837? What by Colonel Taylor? What further is said of the war? What is said of the Asiatic cholera? 8. How was this administration severely tried?

Skin is constantly exposed to environmental factors such as pollutants, chemicals and ultra violet radiation (UV), which can induce premature skin aging and increase the risk of skin cancer. One strategy to reduce the effect of oxidative stress produced by environmental exposure is the application of antioxidant molecules. Among the endogenous antioxidants, selenoproteins play a key role in antioxidant defense and in maintaining a reduced cellular environment. Selenium, essential for the activity of selenoproteins, is a trace element that is not synthesized by organisms and must be supplied by diet or supplementation. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Selenium supplementation on skin aging, especially on keratinocytes, the main cells of the epidermis. Our results demonstrate for the first time to our knowledge, the major role of Selenium on the replicative life span of keratinocytes and on aging skin. Selenium protects keratinocyte stem cells (KSCs) against senescence via preservation of their stemness phenotype through adhesion to the basement membrane. Additionally, Selenium supplementation maintains the homeostasis of skin during chronological aging in our senescent skin equivalent model. Controlled supplementation with Selenium could be a new strategy to protect skin against aging.

Which is not a central force?
(ii) Strong nuclear force (p-p, p-n, n-n) are non-central force.
Is central force is conservative?
Not all central force fields are conservative or spherically symmetric. However, a central force is conservative if and only if it is spherically symmetric or rotationally invariant.
Is work a conservative force?
A conservative force exists when the work done by that force on an object is independent of the object’s path. Instead, the work done by a conservative force depends only on the end points of the motion. An example of a conservative force is gravity. Created by David SantoPietro.
Is gravity a central force?
9.2 The Law of Gravity. Therefore, the gravitational force is a central force since its magnitude is proportional only to the distance between the two particles (where one of the particles can be considered as the center of force), and its direction is along the line joining them (toward the center of force).
Is centrifugal force a central force?
In the case of motion in a central potential the Lagrangian centrifugal force has the same form as the fictitious centrifugal force derived in a co-rotating frame. In accordance with Newton’s third law of motion, the body in curved motion exerts an equal and opposite force on the other body.
Is centripetal force a central force?
Explanation: centre force : Central force act centre to centre of two bodies.. CENTRIPETAL FORCE : Force acting on a body in circular motion towards the cenre.
What remains constant in field of central force?
i.e. Angular momentum is constant. Was this answer helpful?
What is a central force give an example?
Central force is the force that is radially pointing and the magnitude is dependent on the distance from the source. Examples of central forces are gravitational force, electrostatic forces, and spring force.
Is central force produce torque?
Central forces do not exert torques (relative to the central point) on the objects they influence, and therefore angular momentum around the central reference point is conserved.
Is magnetic force a central force?
We can see that the force is perpendicular to the line joining the source (current carrying wire) and the point under consideration. Hence magnetic force is not a central force. Here, magnetic force depends not only on the distance, but also on the magnitude of charge. Hence it is not a central force.
Where is the magnetic field the strongest?
What is electro static force?
What is an Electrostatic Force? The electrostatic force is an attractive and repulsive force between particles are caused due to their electric charges. The electric force between stationary charged body is conventionally known as the electrostatic force. It is also referred to as Columb’s force.
How far can a magnet reach?
2 items of any material with the same masses of a metal bar and a magnet will attract each other from a distance of 5m with nothing but gravety. No magnates needed. Behaviours in a magnetic field can be a little funny to predict, but yes, the magnetic field extends to infinity.
What are the laws of a magnet?
When the north pole of a magnet is brought closer to the south pole of another magnet, there is an attractive force that brings the magnets together. If the magnet is turned so that two north poles or two poles are brought closer, they will repel each other.
How does a compass work?
A compass works by detecting and responding to the Earth’s natural magnetic fields. The Earth has an iron core that is part liquid and part solid crystal, due to gravitational pressure. It is believed that movement in the liquid outer core is what produces the Earth’s magnetic field.
How do you know if a compass works?
It should behave like a match floating in the middle of a bowl of water that you twist. How quickly does the needle settle and accurately point north? Ensure it does not ‘stick’ when settling down to the last couple of degrees. A good compass will have a jewelled pivot bearing.
How does a compass help you find your way?
A compass needle aligns itself and points toward the top of Earth’s magnetic field, giving explorers and lost souls a consistent sense of direction.
What is the liquid inside a compass?
Modern compasses usually use a magnetized needle or dial inside a capsule completely filled with a liquid (lamp oil, mineral oil, white spirits, purified kerosene, or ethyl alcohol are common).
Is the liquid in a compass harmful?
It is important to note that this compass fluid may not be compatible with some compasses, user should decide on the usability of this product. DANGER: Harmful or Fatal if swallowed; Combustible. Keep from heat, sparks, open flame, or other ignition sources. Avoid breathing of vapor or contact with skin.
What causes a compass to malfunction?
In navigation manuals, magnetic deviation refers specifically to compass error caused by magnetized iron within a ship or aircraft. This iron has a mixture of permanent magnetization and an induced (temporary) magnetization that is induced by the Earth’s magnetic field.
Can you refill a compass?
An old compass manufactured before the 1950s may be filled with a mixture of alcohol and water, but a modern one uses refined mineral spirits, referred to as compass oil. This fluid evaporates quickly and leaves no sign of a leak except a bubble. You can put off an inevitable repair by refilling the compass yourself.
How do you fix a compass bubble?
Usually, the bubble will disappear when the compass is returned to sea level and/or room temperature. If it doesn’t, place it in a warm spot-like a sunny windowsill-so the liquid can heat, expand, and return to it’s normal volume.
Should a compass have an air bubble?
Small bubbles have no influence on the accuracy of a compass and in most cases will disappear when the compass is returned to sea level and/or warmer temperatures. In fact, compasses are designed in such a way that the development of bubbles is actually both inevitable and desirable.

City-based crop protection products manufacturer Coromandel International Limited on Monday reported a 17% rise in consolidated profit after tax for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, at Rs 589 crore as against Rs 504 crore in the year ago period.

Commenting on the results, Sameer Goel, managing director, Coromandel International Ltd said, “Coromandel had a strong performance in Q2 FY21, despite the unprecedented external environment posed by Covid 19 pandemic. Better than normal rainfall in the country specially in the company’s key markets, good soil moisture conditions and proactive steps taken by the government for agriculture have resulted in increased crop sowing area and very good demand for agricultural inputs.”
However, he added that the excessive and continuous rainfall in September has resulted in crop losses and postponement of
some agricultural applications.

Take Five is The Arctic Institute’s news roundup that gives you everything you need to know about what’s happened in the Arctic this week. Short in length but big on insight, from politics and culture to the environment and security, we look beneath the headlines to see what’s really going on. Published each Friday, our quick and fun redux breaks down the five biggest circumpolar stories with fresh editorial analysis so you can get caught up on the region in under five minutes. Take Five means you’ll never miss a beat on what matters most.
Circumpolar Inuit Economic Summit looks at cross-boundary cooperation
At a recent meeting in Anchorage facilitated by the Inuit Circumpolar Council, Inuit government and business leaders from Canada, Greenland, Russia, and the US gathered at the Circumpolar Inuit Economic Summit to work on a “groundbreaking” idea to start an organization dedicated to trans-boundary economic cooperation (TAJ, TAJ, The Arctic Sounder)*. Given the complexities of working across multiple jurisdictions, the organization, called the International Inuit Business Council, would certainly have its work cut out for it, but once it’s up and running—hopefully by next year—it could be quite a force in helping people across the region create and take advantage of opportunities (ADN).
TAKE 1: But although many Inuit find themselves in difficult economic circumstances, leaders say this is even more than about making money. It’s also about keeping power in the hands of the people and communities where it belongs, rather than continuing to see it go to interests from the south (The Arctic Sounder). For the Inuit, working together across boundaries that were never theirs to begin with is a logical step in this direction.
Oil drilling in Russia’s northernmost Arctic shelf begins
With blessings from President Vladimir Putin, Rosneft, Russia’s giant oil company, began its drilling operations in the Khatanga license area of the Laptev Sea last week, which is at the northernmost part of the Eastern Arctic shelf (Energy Live News). These are exciting times for the oil company: being that this is the first time ever that this particular shelf has been drilled, it’s estimated that there is about 9.5 billion tons of oil equivalent in the Laptev Sea; as for the Arctic shelf itself, in the 28 blocks that Rosneft owns, it’s estimated that there is 34 billion tons of oil equivalent (Oil Price, Arctic.ru). And there are big plans for the Arctic shelf: analysts say that it will make up as much as 30% of all Russian oil production by 2030 (Arctic.ru).
TAKE 2: Putin was quoted as saying that “we are seeing the start of work to develop a whole oil and gas province,” and this seems like no exaggeration (Energy Live News). Though there are many plans either in progress or yet to begin that focus on infrastructure development in Siberia, the Khara-Tumus peninsula, which the drill site is adjacent to, has no seaport: meaning that for the time being, ships will have to carry cargo the whole 3,600 km to Arkhangelsk on the Northern Sea Route. No doubt it’s with an eye towards the future of ambitious projects like this that Moscow is pondering having tighter rules on oil polluters along the Siberian coast (TBO).
Study: Arctic ice melt hastened from below by warm Atlantic water
A report published last week in Science by an international team of researchers found that warmer water, not just warmer atmospheric air, is contributing to the rapid loss of sea ice in the eastern Eurasian basin of the Arctic Ocean. They’ve called it “Atlantification:” while warmer, saltier (and therefore heavier) Atlantic water normally finds its way north into the Arctic Ocean by way of an offshoot of the Gulf Stream, it’s normally well below the ice, insulated by a layer of colder, less-salty water. What they’ve been observing since 2002, however, is that the warmer water is penetrating that top layer of cold water more often, leading to more ice melt (Science, Daily Herald).
TAKE 3: As one scientist uninvolved in the study pointed out, that this happens is nothing terribly new to Arctic Ocean researchers: it’s a well-known phenomenon in the part of the ocean between Greenland and Norway, for example (Washington Post). But, what the study really underlines is how this is now spreading eastwards, and because ocean currents are great at moving heat around, this could help drive more winters with record-low ice.
China and Norway officially agree to normalize relationship, cooperate more
After a diplomatic chill that began in 2010 after the Nobel Committee (based in Oslo) gave political prisoner Liu Xiaobo a Nobel Peace Prize, things have warmed again between China and Norway with an agreement for respect and discussion on cooperation (TAJ)*. Prime Minister Erna Solberg seemed upbeat in advance of the meeting in Beijing with President Li Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang, expressing a desire to go back to working on a bilateral trade agreement with China, Norway’s largest trading partner in Asia. For his part, Premier Li stated China’s interest in, among other things, cooperating along the lines of agriculture, fishery, the business community, and in having a dialogue on energy policy (TAJ)*.
TAKE 4: From expanding businesses in northern Finland to collaborating with Russia on Arctic infrastructure projects and from trying (unsuccessfully) to buy an unused military base in Greenland to President Li’s recent surprise stopover in Alaska (ADN), “near-Arctic” state China has definitely been a growing presence in the region. Coming bearing trade opportunities with its massive economy, it’s also no secret that China is looking high and low for energy to fuel that economy… which the Arctic has an abundance of. A match made in heaven?
Alaska Army brigade to stay intact, after all
Although the Anchorage-based 4th Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division was on the budget chopping block, the US Army has decided to retain their full numbers rather than cut the brigade down to a smaller size as originally planned (KTUU). Needless to say, Alaska’s congressional delegation, which had been pushing to keep it intact since the Army announced in 2015 that it was going to downsize the number of soldiers throughout the entire force by some 40,000, is pretty pleased with the decision (ADN). About 1,500 soldiers from the brigade are slated to be deployed to Afghanistan later in the year to fight in the ongoing war there (ADN, Stars and Stripes).
TAKE 5: Alaska’s congresspeople are pleased because keeping the brigade’s numbers up means that thousands of sorely-needed jobs are going to stay in Alaska (Must Read Alaska). But it’s also a geostrategic move, considering Alaska’s proximity to Russia and North Korea as well as the fact that the brigade, being trained in Arctic combat, is also the US’s only airborne division in the Pacific region (KTUU, ADN).

Are you sure your calipers are installed straight and aligned?
yes, i lined em up, hold lever on and tightened. checked before riding, no brake rubAre you sure your calipers are installed straight and aligned?
i thought about that, i don't usually sand the rotors with new pads i just bed them in with some initial light braking. How i've been taught to bed in new pads. I'll double check the caliper alignment and rotors for good measure.Did you clean and sand the rotors before using with new pad material? Might be a mixed compound interaction..
There are only so many things it can be..if calipers are alighed and tightened to 8nm and rotor is tightened to hub correctly and spokes are tight...then not much else it can be..

FOLLOWING yesterday’s news that a desalination plant was under construction in the Kouklia area of Paphos, it has just been announced that the Cyprus Ministry of Agriculture plans to build a floating desalination plant off the Germasogia coast at Limassol.
Throughout the past summer Limassol, which is on the south coast of Cyprus, was totally dependent for its drinking water on supplies brought in by tankers from Greece.
The plan for the desalination plant will be presented to Parliament today and, according to the Cyprus Mail, it will be constructed using the infrastructure put in place to receive the water from Greece.
If everything goes according to plan, the plant will come on-line in June and will produce between 20,000m3 and 50,000m3 of water a day for the following five years. After that, the permanent desalination planned for Episkopi will take over.
But desalination plants are not without their critics. According to environmental engineer Michalis Loizides, although desalination plants may seem the ideal solution, future generations may be forced to pay for the mishaps of an irresponsible policy which successive governments have promoted.
He said “Desalination is so energy consuming, that for each ton of water purified, three litres of petrol are used. We have committed to limiting our CO2 emissions to the EU. With the planned creation of the two desalination plants in Limassol and Paphos, as well as the desalination facilities for future golf courses, we will be hit with a fine of around €100 million” adding that this was an example of appalling planning by the government.
He went on to say that with the taxpayer footing the bill for any fines imposed by the EU, “people with no vested interests could actually end up subsidising the building of golf courses“.

‘What a resounding victory for India’s women, for all who spoke up and continue to do so’
Leading lawyers and activists on Wednesday welcomed the Delhi court’s judgement acquitting journalist Priya Ramani in a defamation case filed by former Union Minister M. J. Akbar.
Speaking to reporters outside the court, senior advocate Rebecca John, who was also Ms. Ramani’s lawyer said, “I think probably this is the most important case of my career.”
Congratulating Ms. John and Ms. Ramani for “fighting the good and very tough fight for all women”, senior lawyer Vrinda Grover on social media said, “MJ Akbar tried to use the law of criminal defamation to silence women. Women’s truth has won in court today. This is a historic moment in the struggle for equality at the workplace.”
Soon after the judgment was passed, social media was flooded with congratulatory messages.
Senior journalist Namita Bhandare, in a tweet said, “Truth prevails. What a resounding victory for India’s women, for all who spoke up and continue to do so. For Priya Ramani for refusing to be intimidated and giving courage to so many more who will continue to speak up.”
Veteran actor Simi Garewal also took to Twitter to congratulate Ms. Ramani.
“…looking at past history, I was skeptical that justice would be served. But thank you judge Ravindra Kumar Pandey for respecting a woman’s right…something Akbar may be oblivious about…” said Ms. Garewal.
Stating that the judgment would set an important precedent, lawyer Karuna Nandy posted, “Congratulations Priya Ramani, Ghazala and all those who spoke up. This #MeToo victory sets an important precedent for truth, spoken in the public interest.”

Binance, one of the major cryptocurrency exchanges, said on Thursday it has dedicated a team of investigators to track down the SQUID cryptocurrency scammers.
SQUID token which is inspired by the Korean-language Netflix series “Squid Game” surged from $0.01 to almost $3,000 before plummeting to $0 by Monday. The crypto’s website and social media accounts went offline instantly after that, suggesting that a potential “rug pull” where creators ran away with the money.
The Binance investigators will be “deploying blockchain analytics to identify the bad actors”, a spokesperson told Business Insider. Binance will also provide its findings to law enforcement in the relevant jurisdictions.
“Our security team has launched an investigation – as a gesture of goodwill,” a Binance spokesperson told Insider in an emailed response.
SQUID creators flee with $3 million
At what seems like a scam, SQUID creators fled with over $3 million. Victims included a trader who invested his whole life savings of $28,000 in the cryptocurrency.

'In-House' Public Defense Proving Cheaper
Clark Tibbits takes a lot of phone calls from people seeking legal advice.
The questions are usually simple: “How do I quash a warrant?” or “How can I get my firearms rights reinstated?”
Most of the calls take only a couple minutes to answer. Tibbits, the supervising attorney for the brand new Kitsap County Office of Public Defense, is happy to help.
It is a service Tibbits can provide thanks in part to grant money the state Legislature began distributing in 2005 to beef up criminal defense for those who can’t afford it.
Kitsap County took the money and began dramatically reshaping how the indigent are represented in criminal court, starting with the creation of the position Tibbits now occupies.
The county once relied solely on contracts with private law firms to handle public defense. But the county has steadily come to handle more cases “in house” with a staff that has now grown to three attorneys.
Tibbits anticipates that the county will hire even more public defenders. The reason is financial: an “in house” attorney can handle up to 150 felony cases per year on a total salary package of about $90,000.
For a privately contracted firm, felonies pay $1,135 per case. At that rate, an attorney handling 150 felonies would cost the county $170,000 — almost double the in-house cost.
The county pays private firms just $225 per misdemeanor case. At that lower cost, there’s not nearly as much incentive for the county’s lawyers to take them on rather than have a private attorney handle them, Tibbits said.
For 2010, the public defender’s office is taking the first 30 felonies every month filed against defendants who can’t afford attorneys. The rest are distributed to private firms.
How many cases the firms get depends on how many the Kitsap County Prosecutor’s Office files. This month, the public defenders office reached its 30-case quota by Jan. 12, Tibbits said. All felonies filed after that will be distributed to private firms.
Ron Ness, a longtime attorney who both handles private work and has a contract with the county, said the direction the county is moving is clear: fewer contracted cases, more in house ones.
“Eventually, it becomes another arm of the county,” he said of the public defender’s office.
He said that he understands the move and believes the county has hired seasoned attorneys. But the firms that depend on the public defense contracts will now live precariously year to year, wondering if they’ll keep the same number of cases as the year before.
Most firms are getting about as many contracted cases in 2010 as they did in 2009 — with one big exception.
Crawford, McGilliard, Petersen and Yelish — perennially the county’s biggest public-defense contract firm — is on retainer for just 30 felonies per month this year, down from 65 per month in 2009.
That has forced the firm to make some cutbacks, according to partner John McGilliard. It now employs seven attorneys, instead of the 12 who previously worked there.
But “whatever happens, this firm will always be here,” he said, noting it has maintained a large private caseload that includes the county’s biggest family law practice.
One attorney, William Houser, left Crawford to join the public defender’s office. Tibbits also hired Shane Silverthorn, a former private Tacoma attorney who accepted cases from Pierce County’s public defense office.
Tibbits has also hired Chris Mace, a private investigator who was once the elected sheriff of Klickitat County, and Vicki Tabert, a long time county clerk’s office employee, who serves as administrative assistant.
Susan Taylor, who was the coordinator of public defense when it was handled exclusively by private firms, has also stayed on as office manager.
The office also recently got a new space in the area of the county courthouse formerly occupied by departments that moved into the county’s administration building.
The office continues to receive grant funds. The office is getting about $200,000 from the state this year, Tibbits said, a big chunk of the total office budget of about $500,000.

We use a utility called Sanur (http://www.commandline.co.uk/sanur/) to
script the Microsoft RunAs facility. Other than custom writing a
service to implement a client side polled scripting or policy
implementation (which is another project I'm working on), this is the
best I've found. Microsoft LogonUser() does not allow users to
impersonate the context of other users any longer unless they're running
as an Administrator or SYSTEM user and as a service, which rules out
making a custom executable with a hardcoded password, or something that
queries via the network an authorized NTLM hash of the password, etc.
At that point, it's easier to just simply write something that will trap
for logins and pull down a set of actions to take (which would be easier
to configure for the desktop admins I've got working in my group than
DOS batch scripts). Anyways, there's my rant on the current state of
Windows Security. There's nothing like sudo which is easily scriptable
I'm afraid, but this Sanur utility is about the next best thing if
you're willing to live with an exposed Administrator password for the
duration the login script exists (about 10 seconds or so in my
installation, as I use root preexec and root postexec in the netlogon
share to create and destroy the script).

The Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, declared on Tuesday that the heightening ethnic and religious tensions in Nigeria are products of political and economic strains in the country.
Aregbesola, who stated this in a statement in Abuja, was reacting to the current crisis in Ondo and parts of Oyo States over the activities of herdsmen.
He said the Federal Government is having a holistic look at the challenges with a view to bring lasting peace and security to all communities.
He also urged all aggrieved parties to exercise restraint in the face of any provocation and vowed that government would effectively deal with problems in the two states.
He said: “The regrettable incidences of heightening ethnic and religious tensions in our country are, in part, outcomes of political and economic strains that have persistently defined our land and continue to exacerbate security challenges, making the task of development more traumatic.
Aregbesola said: “The government is keenly aware and genuinely concerned about these complications that, sadly, have been sharpened by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic through the growth of anxieties about issues, lives, and livelihoods in our communities.
“There will be no tolerance for any act or behaviour capable of jeopardising law and order and security of lives and property in any part of Nigeria.
“Therefore, as the government is fashioning long term answers to address these problems, it urges citizens to appreciate that self-help and lawlessness cannot offer a path to a sustainable solution.
“It can only lead to greater pain as well as costly human and material losses and disruption of the already difficult task of devising responses that will produce tangible peace and development in the country.”
