‘Western learned magic’ in a nutshell: the Leipzig collection of codices magici (Cod. Mag.)
20.03.2019 – 16:15-17:45 at Ülikooli 18-228
The university library of Leipzig hosts one of the most extensive and complete early modern collections of hand-written manuscripts of ‘Western learned magic’. The collection was sold in 1710 for an extraordinary price, and both the selling catalogue entitled ‘catalogus rariorum manuscriptorum’ as well as 134 (of 140) manuscripts have survived. The collection is unique in several ways: with numerous texts going back to late antiquity and the Middle Ages, as well as early modern adaptations and innovations, the collection attests both the longue-durée nature of the textual-ritual tradition of ‘Western learned magic’ as well as its striking adaptability and changeability. With over hundred texts translated into German, it attests processes of vernacularising texts and techniques of ‘learned magic’ in German-speaking Europe that happened significantly earlier than assumed thus far. With over 65 % of the texts devoted to the Solomonic art of conjuring spirits, the collection provides a unique window into ritual knowledge that was highly contested and illegal at the time, and at the same time demonstrates that this knowledge was much more elaborate and versatile in the 17th and 18th centuries than assumed thus far. After an introduction into the concept and tradition of ‘Western learned magic’, the lecture provides an overview over the history and contents of the Leipzig Cod. Mag. collection.
Mapping Modern Magic(k)
21.03.2019 – 16:15-17:45 at Ülikooli 18-228
At this very moment, a global discourse of contemporaneous self-proclaimed ‘magicians’ is flourishing more or less below the radar of the scholarly community and media awareness. These self-proclaimed ‘magicians’ (which may today amount to roughly one million) practice a ritual art usually denoted as ‘magick’ and bear witness to their experiences by means of a large variety of publication activities. The lecture will present findings from a cooperative research project entitled ‘Mapping Modern Magic(k)’ (with Prof. Egil Asprem, Stockholm, and Prof. Marco Pasi, Amsterdam, as co-researchers) that strives to systematically map and analyse the internal structures and networks, the formation of groups and schools, the self-perceptions and experience reports, and the conceptual and ritual dynamics of this discourse. The project is ambitious and challenging insofar as the said discourse is inherently global and transcultural as well as extremely heterogenous. One of the main goals of the project is to develop an analytical matrix that helps to map and organise the manifold material; this matrix will be presented and discussed during the lecture. Finally, a range of explanations will be provided regarding the (unexpected?) persistence, innovativity and popularity of ‘magick’ in the (post-)modern West.
Building blocks of a new cultural theory of magic
22.03.2019 – 12:00-13:30 at Ülikooli 18-228
Whereas ‘Western learned magic’ as well as ‘magick’ could be considered signifiers that refer to a specific (Western) type of religious data on the object level, the third lecture will adopt a more theoretical perspective and ponder whether ‘magic’ could be re-established as an analytical term of cross-cultural and diachronic scope. Of course, we do not want to relapse into out-dated essentialist or Eurocentric definitions, join in the chatter about so-called ‘heuristic’ (but ultimately meaningless) categories, or rely on the vagueness and arbitrariness of everyday language. Against the backdrop of these obstacles, the lecture suggests a methodological pathway that allows for conceptualising ‘magic’ as a comparative category that can be applied to any religious data, independent of its timely, geographical, or cultural contexts. Taking ‘magic’s’ Western history as an analytical starting point (which is the only plausible way to do it), the magic word is ‘conceptual reverse-engineering’: thereby, ‘magic’ is chopped into smaller bits and pieces that may be allocated to three basic domains – the (A) conceptual-intellectual, the (B) discursive, and the (C) ritual domain. The items that we find in these domains – for instance: (A1) ‘ritual’, (A2) ‘power’, (A3) ‘miracle’, and (A4) ‘wish-fulfilment’ in the domain of concepts and ideas – can then be used as tertia comparationis in a comparative framework. Exemplary findings show that this procedure may lead to more nuanced analyses of various ‘same same but different’ phenomena on the object level, but it also raises the question whether – and how – apparent similarities across different times and spaces can be explained. As this is ultimately a theoretical question, the lecture concludes with tentative suggestions of how the suggested methodological procedure may provide building blocks of a new cultural theory of ‘magic’.
Bernd-Christian Otto received his PhD (2009, Heidelberg) and his Habilitation (2017, Erfurt) in the Study of Religion. He is currently Fellow at the Käte Hamburger Kolleg, Bochum University, and an associated fellow at the Max Weber Centre for Advanced Cultural and Social Studies, Erfurt University. His research focuses on the history of magic, where he combines different methodologies such as conceptual history, discourse analysis, social theory, and ritual studies. His book publications include Magie. Rezeptions- und diskursgeschichtliche Analysen von der Antike bis zur Neuzeit (de Gruyter 2011), Defining Magic: A Reader (ed. with Michael Stausberg, Routledge 2013), Magical Manuscripts in Early Modern Europe: The Clandestine Trade in Illegal Book Collections (co-authored with Daniel Bellingradt, Palgrave MacMillan 2017), and Religious Individualisation: Historical Dimensions and Comparative Perspectives (ed. with Jörg Rüpke et al., De Gruyter 2019). He is also interested in methods and theories regarding the historicisation of religion, in the problem of religious experience, and in the history of the Study of Religions. He is a board member of the European Society for the Study of Western Esotericism.

Internal stochastic structure of annual discharge time series of Serbia’s large rivers
Article (Published version)
MetadataShow full item record
The internal structure of hydrologic processes is discussed in the paper. Time series of mean annual river discharges are assessed to determine their stationarity, trend and periodicity. The time series of annual discharges are determined to be non-stationary. The trend varies in different time segments, with changing trend intensity and direction. Hurst analysis shows that the time series of annual discharges have a long memory. Long-term periodicity of annual time series is considered, while macroperiods are determined and classified into four groups of mean values: 9.5, 13.5, 22.5 and 31.5 years. Secondary microperiodicity is found to exist in the interval from 3.6 to 4.9 years.

Through the lens: How 20 years of conflict since 9/11 changed Afghanistan
The Afghanistan war ended just as abruptly as it had begun. Two decades ago, the September 11 terrorist attacks led the U.S. to formulate its controversial counter-terrorism policy, including its longest war in history – the war in Afghanistan.
Twenty years later, the mountainous country nestled in the heartland of Asia has once again come to a crossroads as the U.S. withdrew its troops, with the Taliban reclaiming the power they lost two decades ago.
Afghanistan has long been a battlefield for global powers, but it has never been conquered, hence its moniker – the "Graveyard of Empires."
In the series "Through the lens: Afghanistan 2001-2021," we dive into the scars the war has left on the country, and the fear, wrath and resilience of the Afghan people, in eight episodes.
In decades of war and destitution, opium poppy plantation and production have become a major source of income for local farmers. "Either Afghanistan destroys opium, or opium will destroy Afghanistan," former Afghan President Hamid Karzai once said.
Wars after wars have made migration a norm for the Afghan people. As of 2021, Afghanistan is the third largest source of refugees in the world, with the number of Afghan refugees standing at 2.6 million. Domestically, 4 million internally displaced persons are still in temporary camps.
On April 14, Biden announced the U.S. troop withdrawal would be completed by September 11, marking the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks that sparked the invasion. In the months that followed, the country witnessed massive chaos.
How the new Afghan government deals with the wide range of social, political and economic issues will determine how an Afghanistan under the Taliban will be received by the Afghan people and the world.

THE day of the £50 million lottery jackpot came closer yesterday as the UK’s national lottery operator signed up with counterparts in France and Spain to run a “Euromillions” lottery.
Camelot may be suffering from declining sales in the UK but it hopes that this will be cured by a move into Europe.
It said yesterday that it had signed heads of agreement with La Française des Jeux and Loterías y Apuestas del Estado. The aim is to launch a combined lottery in the first quarter of 2004 and then open it up to other European lottery operators; after that should it continue to grow.
Camelot said that the lottery would be a Lotto-type game with a weekly draw on Friday night. The tickets would…

I love how these retards don't understand how the constitution works. The Second Amendment clearly states that "[...]the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed", so the SCOTUS was probably right in overturning a state's (New York, in this case) law that did infringe said right. However, the constitution says nothing about abortion, and Roe v. Wade was repeatedly criticized for stretching the right to privacy guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment to cover abortions and effectively being "legislation from the bench" meaning that the Court overstepped its boundaries with that decision.
The difference between guns and abortion is that the constitution explicitly guarantees a right to bear guns (yes, it refers to "arms" but that term covers firearms and is usually interpreted as doing so) while it does not make a single mention of abortion. Therefore, it can be argued that the constitution does not confer a right to abortion, and the Supreme Court was right to hand the decision back to the states, in the absence of federal legislation.
That being said, this year truly is the year of the chud.

Inspiration comes when you least expect it, as long as you are expecting it, that is! There you go, some wisdom in the first sentence of this week’s blog! For me, wisdom came on Saturday morning as I was jogging on the spot on my porch, as the rain bucketed down all around me. I was looking at the rain and enjoying the sounds, sights and smells, and I smiled as it just reinforced to me that no matter what happens in my life, all outcomes are great!
I am going to tell you a really dumb little story to try and make my point this week, but before I do, I want to just share a little of the conversation I had with Nick Bracks on this week’s Podcast called, You can’t lose. Nick is a man who, like many of us, has had a mental health journey to the point where he had serious issues in his life. Nevertheless, now on the other side and helping many people as a result, his attitude inspires me beyond belief. He said that no matter what outcome you achieve in life, it’s always a win. Now, I know many might disagree with that statement, but then it’s all how we look at things, right? He said, for himself, he will either get a successful outcome, or he will get a lesson that will help him in his life. So, for him, he cannot lose. What about you? That’s something to ponder as you deal with the current circumstances in your life.
So, every Saturday for me is ‘Muscle Up Saturday.’ I get up around 6am, jump on my bike and ride to the outdoor chin-up bar at a local park and do my session. I love it, mostly when it’s over, that is! This Saturday, I woke up to the sound of torrential rain. In my younger years I would have braved the weather anyway with my catch-cry that, ‘I am waterproof!’ I have to admit, with no apologies, in recent years, I have softened a little. Not to the point I would use the rain as an excuse, but certainly to the point I would modify my session. I was however in a dilemma as I had no idea what I would do.
The outcome I wanted was to be able to get to the park and do my muscle ups, the outcome I ended up with was just as great, in fact maybe better, as I was proud of my creativity and willingness to find a solution. This is exciting stuff, isn’t it?? I grabbed my 17.5kg (40lb) dumbbell from the garage and went out onto my 2m by 2m undercover porch just outside my front door and, as the rain was pelting down, I did 10 sets of a full-body dumbbell exercise, squats and jogging on the spot. As I was jogging on the spot at the end of the session, trying to get my steps up to reach my goal, I was looking out over the rain-soaked-landscape and thinking, ‘this is an awesome outcome.’
Boring story, I know, and, it’s really not about me telling you how great I am. I just want to reinforce the message you will hear if you listen to the podcast with Nick Bracks, that no matter what outcome you end up with, it’s always great, if you choose it to be. It’s so wonderfully true, if you believe it and expect it to be. In my professional football career, the initial outcome I wanted was to be successful, the one I ended up with was being sacked. The sacking led me to significant self-reflection and learning, and a very fulfilling fitness industry career. An incredible outcome. When I bought a café, the outcome I wanted was for it to be a successful business. The outcome I ended up with was that I was out of business and in $100,000 debt within two short years. It was at that time, as I questioned my next step, that I decided to write my first book, which has totally transformed my life. An amazing outcome.
I could tell you story after story, but I would rather you reflect on your own experiences where you may not have got the outcome you initially wanted, but instead you got one far more exciting and fulfilling, even though the circumstances at the time looked pretty devastating. I want to encourage you to believe in your heart that all outcomes are great. I want to have peace-of-mind and confidence in knowing that whatever you are experiencing right now, you will look back with perspective and gratitude knowing that it led you to an incredible outcome. With the right attitude and a proper perspective, all outcomes you experience are great!

Do you find yourself sitting in traffic for longer and longer on your commute? Do you constantly ask yourself how this can be improved? Well, you are not alone.
Throughout Hillsborough County and the surrounding areas, commute times ARE getting longer according to recently releases U.S. Census data.
On average commuters are spending on average 10 hours more per year in their cars getting to and from work versus five years ago. The average commute time in Hillsborough is about 28.3 minutes a day. To compare, it was at 27.5 minutes in 2016. Trending the other way, Pinellas County’s average daily commute times actually decreased- but only slightly. Currently, it is at 24.2 minutes, down from 24.6 in 2016.
If we account for the entire metro area of Tampa-St.Pete-Clearwater, the commute times have increased to 27.9 minutes on average per day, versus 26.7 minutes in 2016.
So why were these numbers released now? Well in the November midterm elections, there will be a vote to approve or reject a transportation referendum that would offer some solutions to traffic congestion, safety and the lack of transit options in Florida.
What do you find as the most annoying or stressful part of your commute? Is it the congestion, construction or more so the way other drivers are driving?
Being on the road longer, and in more traffic makes everyone more susceptible to be in a car accident. Stay vigilant and defensive as a driver and most importantly, when there is traffic, just breath don’t fly off the handles. Getting mad won’t make the traffic move faster. Just accept it and keep driving.

NEW DELHI – At least for a while, the World Wide Web wasn’t so worldwide.
Two cables that carry Internet traffic deep under the Mediterranean Sea snapped, disrupting service Thursday across a swath of Asia and the Middle East.
India took one of the biggest hits, and the damage from its slowdowns and outages rippled to some U.S. and European companies that rely on its lucrative outsourcing industry to handle customer service calls and other operations.
“There’s definitely been a slowdown,” said Anurag Kuthiala, a system engineer at the New Delhi office of Symantec Corp., a security software maker based in California. “We’re able to work, but the system is very slow.”
While the cause of the damage was not yet known, the scope was wide: Traffic slowed on the Dubai stock exchange, and there was concern that workers who labor for the well-off in the Mideast might not be able to send money home to poor relatives.
Although disruptions to larger U.S. firms were not widespread, the outage raised questions about the vulnerability of the infrastructure of the Internet. One analyst called it a “wake-up call,” and another cautioned that no one was immune.
The cables, which lie undersea north of the Egyptian port of Alexandria, were snapped Wednesday just as the working day was ending in India, so the full impact was not apparent until Thursday.
There was speculation a ship’s anchor might be to blame.


2019 RAM 1500 MPG
With the 2019 Ram 1500, drivers can expect their truck to be capable of 20 MPG/25 MPG (city/highway) when equipped with a standard 3.6L V6 Pentastar engine, eTorque capability, and RWD. Through each trim and version of the Ram 1500, this Ram truck offers great fuel efficiency, including the best-in-class fuel economy for a 4×4 pickup truck. Let the experts at Santa Cruz Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram walk you through the entire EPA-estimated MPG ratings of the Ram 1500, and discover how you can go further with fewer stops at Watsonville gas stations.
RAM 1500 Fuel Economy Overview
The 2019 Ram 1500 is available with three engines, and the so its fuel economy is different depending on what’s under the hood. Here are the gas mileage ratings for the Ram 1500 when equipped with each engine:
- 3.6L Pentastar V6 Engine with eTorque
- Fuel Efficiency with 4X2 configuration: 20 MPG/25 MPG (city/highway)
- Fuel Efficiency with 4X4 configuration: 19 MPG/24 MPG (city/highway)
- 5.7L HEMI V8 Engine
- Fuel Efficiency with 4X2 configuration: 15 MPG/22 MPG (city/highway)
- Fuel Efficiency with 4X4 configuration: 15 MPG/21 MPG (city/highway)
- 5.7L HEMI V8 Engine with eTorque
- Fuel Efficiency with 4X2 configuration: 17 MPG/23 MPG (city/highway)
- Fuel Efficiency with 4X4 configuration: 17 MPG/22 MPG (city/highway)
The above fuel efficiency ratings are among the best in its class, and so Ram 1500 drivers are assured they will have fewer trips to the gas station, in turn saving them more money. This can be especially valuable for businesses in need of commercial fleets, as it will result in less budget having to be spent on fuel.
What Is An eTorque System?
The eTorque system uses a battery-powered, 48-volt belt-driven motor instead of an alternator, and is a major factor in how the Ram 1500 is able to have such impressive fuel efficiency ratings. The eTorque system also allows for higher torque capabilities, as well as a better maximum weight in terms of both payload and towing capacity.
RAM 1500 Efficiency Systems
Here are some other aspects that help the Ram 1500 achieve its best-in-class MPG ratings:
- In terms of transmission, the Ram 1500 comes standard with TorqueFlite, which is an 8-speed automatic transmission that adjusts shift points and results in better performance and fuel efficiency.
- The design of the 2019 Ram 1500 also helps its fuel economy by having an elevated hood and redesigned roof that work in tandem to lower the truck’s drag coefficient.

Racism, Political Communication, and American Presidential Elections
George Klay Kieh, Jr.
Since the seventeenth century, racism has been an enduring and ubiquitous contour of the American capitalist political economy. The racist scourge is deeply embedded in every facet and sector of American life—institutions, law, and culture (Click 2003: 1). Given the long history of the phenomenon, Cupich (2008: 1), using a biblical metaphor, refers to it as the United States’ “own original sin.” One of the major sectors that reflects the ubiquity of race in the American body politic is the electoral arena. John Judis provides a poignant description of the strangulating hold racism has on American elections—federal, state and municipal, legislative and presidential:
The issue of race is the longest-lasting cleavage in American politics. It is also perhaps the least understood. The open exploitation of racist sentiment by vote-hungry politicians was for centuries a durable American tradition. More recently race has assumed a subtle often unspoken form during campaign season (Judis 2001: 1).
Political advertisement serves as the instrumentarium through which the images that emanate from the architecture of racism are used as the terra firma for framing messages that seek to influence voting behavior. From the repository of elections, two cases are instructive. During the 1990 North Carolina senatorial race between white incumbent Jesse Helm, and Black Democratic challenger Harvey Gantt, Helms used a notorious racist political “White Hands” ad The ad showed the arms and hands of a white man opening and crumpling up a rejection letter (Kiley 2008: 1). The voiceover says, “You needed that job, and you were the best qualified. But they had to give it to a minority because of a racial quota. Is that really fair?” During the 2006 Tennessee senatorial contest between Harold Ford, a Black Democratic candidate, and Bob Corker, the white Republican candidate, there were videos juxtaposing Ford with young white women (New York Times 2008: 1).
Against this background, the purpose of this chapter is twofold. First, it examines the racism-political advertisement nexus, especially its use as an instrument for priming and conditioning white voting behavior in presidential elections. In other words, how did racist political advertisement seek to shape voting preferences of white voters in past American presidential elections? Second, it assesses the impact of the election of Barack Obama as the first African American U.S. president on the use of racist political ads in future presidential elections. Has Obama’s election made racist ads anachronistic?


USA TODAY Travel asked editors at The Huffington Post to share some of their top travel stories this week. Here are their picks:
Searching for New York's best slice of pizza: Trying to narrow down the best pizza in NYC is like trying to select the best apples from an orchard during U-pick season. The options are limitless. That said, I have sampled my fair share of NYC slices and have come to a few conclusions. There's a different pizza for every mood and appetite. If you're visiting the city and don't have time to sample around, these top five slice joints, classy restaurants, and old-school institutions will do the trick.

America out the train window: By the end of World War II, trains had become a commonality; today, train travel is a commodity. For long-distance travel, aerial crafts have replaced terrestrial vehicles. Consequently, we now think in terms of destinations rather than journeys. The images that fall in this category aim to recreate landscapes a passenger would see when traveling by train. The scenery would be difficult to see from any other form of transportation, as it is indistinguishable from a plane and inaccessible by car.

A guide To America's oddest 'Capitals Of The World': Washington D.C. is frequently discussed with scorn by the career politicians who spend most of the year in Georgetown brownstones. This is what America's capital city has received in exchange for its service, a heaping helpful of disdain and a reputation as the ultimate corrupting force. But Washington isn't the only U.S. capital that can't seem to get any respect, there are a number of "Capitals of the World" within our borders that labor in such obscurity that pols don't even bother to badmouth them.

Welcome fellow survivors of the recent apocalypse! On Friday 25 November, we gathered at the Cambridge Union Society —the last building standing—in preparation to hoist our life raft into the Cam and sail away to a new land, to build a new society from the ground up. Suddenly . . . Five more survivors were found; they had been at a "Global Health" conference when the building collapsed, trapping them in the rubble! With our life raft full, we asked if we could risk making space for one more person, whose expertise was indispensable to the health of our future society. Although our Devil's Advocate made a case for us to leave them all behind . . .
The event 'Global Poverty and ICTs' was held in Cambridge on 26 October 2010. It was the launch of a themed year on ICT4D (ICT for Development) run by the Humanitarian Centre in partnership with ARM. www.humcentre.org/ict4d

When I lived in London, one of the things I missed most about the United States was peanut butter. Yes, there was peanut butter in the UK, but it was different and it wasn’t the sort of difference you could look past. And, as I came to find out, I wasn’t the only one who felt that way. In fact, American peanut butter was a hot commodity; whenever someone would go home on holiday or have visitors from the US, we would put in our peanut butter orders and wait impatiently until we could get our hands on what we knew and loved.
It makes sense that Americans have a unique relationship with peanut butter. It was, after all, John Harvey Kellogg, a physician and vegetarian, who began giving his patients nut butters in the 1890s to provide them with a healthy, easy-to-eat source of protein.1 Simultaneously, he began supplying peanut grinders to health food stores, allowing a relatively small market of niche, expensive peanut butters to flourish.
Mass commercialization, however, didn’t happen until the 1920s, when Joseph Rosefield introduced the use of hydrogenated fat in the peanut butter manufacturing process, preventing oil separation and drastically increasing the appeal of the product. Rosefield’s invention came just in time; “as the scarcity of meat [during WWII] required citizens and soldiers to seek protein alternatives.”2 From that point on, peanut butter took off. Today Americans spend over $1.8 billion on peanut butter annually – more than any other nation in the world – and over half of peanuts grown in the United States are destined to be made into peanut butter.3
This history is noteworthy because it informs how Americans approach peanut butter and guides the purchasing decisions of consumers. Peanut butter is not seen as an exotic food eaten on rare occasion, but as a staple that is consumed throughout life, something we remember from our grade school lunch boxes, something we eat as comfort food, and something that has become inextricably linked to our culture. It is familiar and beloved. As such, consumers have very specific expectations of peanut butter products and strong preferences regarding what it should taste, look, and smell like, preferences that have typically been ingrained from childhood. The color of peanut butter in particular is of utmost importance when it comes to influencing consumer choice and experience.
The Importance of Color in Peanut Butter Grading
What peanut butter should look like isn’t simply an arbitrary matter of personal choice, but an instrumental part of peanut butter quality assessments made by the USDA. As Norman Whetzel of HunterLab says, “The USDA quality system assigns peanut butter quality ratings of USDA Grade A, Grade B and Other based on 4 attributes that total 100 points”:
- Color: 20 points
- Consistency: 20 points
- Absence of defects: 30 points
- Flavor and aroma: 30 points
While the color of peanut butter accounts for only 20% of the USDA score, that 20% is vitally important. Color, after all, is the only attribute readily apparent to consumers prior to purchase and even slight color variations can significantly diminish appeal. Simultaneously, color can be an important indicator of product taste, as it is directly influenced by roasting and other process variables; unexpected or undesirable color isn’t just a matter of aesthetics, but can be a very real sign of diminished quality. As such, adhering to color standards is critical to commercial success as well as achieving Grade A classification.
Quantifying the Color of Peanut Butter
To facilitate color assessment, the USDA has developed a set of color standards in the form of four plastic chips that act as guideposts. Designed to be compared visually to the color of peanut butter, these color standards are inherently unreliable; a wide range of variables can interfere with accurate matching, including light conditions, viewing environment, and color vision differences between viewers. In contrast, spectrophotometers allow you to precisely assess the color the same way every time, removing the variables that compromise accuracy, and providing an objective basis of analysis. Today, spectrophotometric color analysis is the gold standard within the peanut industry, significantly expanding your quality control capabilities.
However, your internal peanut butter color standards should not be based solely on spectrophotometric color measurements of the plastic chips. Whetzel explains:
A USDA Peanut Butter Color standard i[…] is different in appearance from actual peanut butter. While you can measure the color of the Peanut Butter Color chips as a direct approximation, the best correlation method is have several peanut butter quality experts visually evaluate the color of the peanut butter using the USDA Peanut Butter visual guides for your product color range of interest. Then measure the color of the peanut butter using your standard method and look at the correlation of Hunter L or CIE L* (lightness) to the consensus grades of the quality group. This will give you the best correlation to these USDA Peanut Butter grades, and you should be able to report to a single decimal place if you are doing instrumental measurement.
This process may be intricate, but it will allow you to create a reliable metric for satisfactory peanut butter color that you can then use to assess subsequent batches, ensuring the highest degree of precision and consistency.
HunterLab has been a pioneer in the field of spectrophotometry for over 60 years. Our dedication to innovation and technological excellence has led us to develop an extraordinary lineup of instruments that give our users the accuracy and flexibility they need to implement rigorous color control protocols. With a complete range of portable, benchtop, and inline spectrophotometers to choose from, we provide the peanut industry with the tools it needs to monitor color quality throughout the manufacturing process, resulting in both higher quality products and increased efficiency.

Cummins Inc. continues to build on its legacy of powering medium-duty trucks by unveiling the next generation of the most dependable engines in the industry. Cummins introduced the 2017 B6.7 and L9 engines at the NTEA Work Truck Show. These engines will be the next chapter in a long line of diesel and natural gas products proven in applications all around the world. Over the past 32 years, Cummins has produced more than 16 million MidRange engines. This crucial, real-world experience enables constant innovation and refinement to make these engines more reliable and dependable than ever.
"Medium-duty truck customers have made Cummins their engine manufacturer of choice due to the unparalleled uptime they have experienced with our B and L Series engines. This is the legacy that Cummins has created over nearly a century of engine innovation and more than 30 years of B Series and L Series availability," says Brett Merritt, Executive Director - On-Highway Business. "And that's why Cummins is redefining classics - by introducing the newest-generation B and L Series engines - the B6.7 and L9."
The B6.7, with a 200-325 hp, 520-750 lbs.-ft. ratings range, is the next generation in a proven line of B Series engines, dating back to the introduction of the 6BT5.9 in 1984. Stable architecture design from experience gained over the past decades leads to further refinement to deliver one of the most dependable engines in the industry. New for 2017 is an increase in fuel economy for the entire range of B6.7 ratings. Optimized for stop-and-go duty cycles, the B6.7 efficiency ratings - 200-260 hp - offer an increase in fuel economy of up to 7% over current product. The B6.7 performance ratings - 280-325 hp - also offer enhanced efficiency while still meeting demanding duty cycles; customers can expect up to a 5% increase without sacrificing power. Further fuel-economy improvements can be realized with innovations like the Stop-Start system, now capable on the 2017 B6.7. This technology allows the engine to operate only when necessary - saving fuel while creating a quieter ride for the driver.
With ratings from 260-380 hp and 720-1,250 lbs.-ft., the 2017 L9 will continue to lead its class with the highest power-to-weight ratio, offering optimized ratings for some of the toughest duty cycles. New for 2017 is a 350 hp/1,150 lbs.-ft. rating that maintains more power and torque across a wider rpm range, ideally suited for tough vocational duty cycles. With some further enhancements in reliability on an already proven heavy-duty design, the L9 will continue to be the productivity champion, especially in the most demanding work truck applications.
2017 Single Module Aftertreatment
The Single Module aftertreatment system is a customer-voice-driven design that combines the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC), Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems into a single canister. This MidRange system features up to 70% reduction in space claim and up to 30% reduction in weight over current aftertreatment systems. Simple and optimized Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) dosing with the UL2 Urea Dosing System eliminates the need for engine coolant lines to and from the DEF injector, reducing installation complexity and allowing for easier serviceability. The injector's proprietary atomization nozzle minimizes the risk of deposit formation, and offers a freeze-robust design and improved reliability. Furthermore, a range of systems ideally sized for the engine and rating ensures the most efficient operation, for improved fuel efficiency across a diverse range of applications.
All Cummins engines are backed by the largest and most capable support network in North America, with over 3,500 authorized repair locations to service vehicles. Dependable and accessible diesel and alternative-fuel experts help get trucks out on the road faster and keep them there. And Cummins Care, at 1-800-DIESELS (1-800-343-7357), is available 24/7/365. A representative will help locate the nearest available and authorized facility any time of day or night.
Medium-Duty Truck Market, Redefined
In 2017, Cummins will continue to deliver the broadest range of MidRange products, from the diesel V5.0, B6.7 and L9 engines to the natural gas ISB6.7 G and ISL G Near Zero engines. "'The B Series platform has been and will continue to be the classic American workhorse. All of our MidRange engines are rooted in a proven legacy of dependability, and we will continue to provide class-leading products for decades to come," says Amy Boerger, Vice President - North American Engine Business.
Coupled with products like the Single Module aftertreatment system and Connected Diagnostics, these next-generation engines will maximize uptime, improve operational efficiency and deliver class-leading productivity for every customer. Everything is backed by the largest service and support network in North America. In 2017, Cummins isn't just launching an impressive line of new products, they're redefining an industry.

I’ve found it really difficult to listen to anything but the new Everything Everything album over the past 4 days. Actually, I’ve reunited myself with Wild Beasts’ second album too, but I’m getting off topic. Come on, focus. Point is, it’s taken me a little longer than usual to getting round to writing this blog post. But yeah.
I was introduced to Josh Flowers & The Wild on Monday night, the night they happened to unveil a video for new song The Cold. Let me first go on record saying that I think this video is downright sublime. It begins with the male protagonist taking his pet bird for a stroll through a labyrinth of dark caves, before he finds an absolute babe in a conveniently well lit cave. They then proceed to dance their troubles away, before the caves start to, well, cave in on them, literally. I’m sure it’s all a loose metaphor for something, but visually, it’s very impressive.
The song itself, ‘The Cold’ which comes off their forthcoming EP Young Bones (set for release in March) is a stunning folk inflected rock ballad. Instrumentally it reminds me of The National in places, but with a much poppier and more accessible feel to it. Flowers’ vocals and lyrics are equal parts endearing and fragile, and compliment the rest of the song with aplomb. I can’t wait to hear the rest of this EP, and no doubt we’ll all be hearing a lot more about Josh Flowers & The Wild in 2013.
Download The Cold for free over at the band’s bandcamp, and watch the video for the track below.

Wool is simply amazing. It is nature’s duvet, providing you with warmth and cosiness year after year. Wool is a natural and sustainable material, it does not harm the planet. As a society, we are trying to move away from disposable items, and buying products such as a wool blanket for your home is a great step in the right direction. Wool is very hard-wearing and our wool blankets will last for many years, so knowing how to look after them is important. Wool is a naturally breathable material, and because of how it is constructed actually has self-cleaning properties! Pretty impressive! So, you may not need to clean your wool blanket as often as you think. Airing it outside, though avoiding direct sunlight, will help to keep it fresh and sweet-smelling between washes. So, read on, and learn to care for your wool blanket.
Caring For Wool
Before you jump straight into washing your wool blanket, some things can help to keep it in good condition. Spot cleaning works wonders on small spills and stains, without needing to fully wash the whole blanket. Piling or bobbling is a well-known issue with wool, but keeping on top of it will prevent it from getting worse. Keep your wool blanket in tip-top condition with our great tips.
For small spills, simply use a little liquid soap detergent with cold water and rub gently. There are excellent liquid soap detergents designed specifically for washing wool in, and these are worth using to keep your wool blankets looking their best. Don’t rub too hard for too long in the same area as you can cause the wool to stretch. Gentle repetition should remove the stain.
Removing Bobbling / Pilling
Those annoying little bobbles are caused by friction, so they tend to happen in high-wear areas. Think of the underarms on your favourite wool jumper – friction. Fortunately, a lint roller and a de-pilling comb will quickly remove the little bobbles or pills, leaving you with a beautifully soft and bobble-free blanket.
Wool can now be washed at home, as most washing machines have a cold setting. However, if you don’t trust your washing machine, consider hand washing or dry cleaning as an alternative way to clean your wool blanket.
Make sure you choose a detergent specifically for wool, as it has been specially formulated to make your wool feel as lovely as possible. Simply fill a sink, or bath with lukewarm water and add your detergent. Start by just letting your wool blanket soak for around 10 minutes. Remember wool doesn’t like to be aggressively cleaned, so after letting it soak, simply gently move it around, scrunch it in your hands, but don’t rub the wool together, as this can increase bobbling. Rinse your wool blanket twice with cold water, and reshape the blanket whilst it is still damp.
Only use your washing machine to wash your blankets if you trust it! Sometimes the cold setting is not actually cold. Choose the coldest setting, remember your wool-friendly detergent, and away you go. Don’t use too much fabric conditioner, if any, as it can make your wool more prone to pilling or bobbling.
If you are unsure about how to wash your wool blankets, consider taking them to a dry cleaner. Certain types of wool such as merino are dry clean only, so make sure you check the washing instruction label. Dry cleaning wool blankets will prevent that slight change in texture that can occur when washing blankets in water, so it is worth considering.
Drying Wool Blankets
After washing your blanket it is important to dry it properly. Remember to reshape it while damp, then remove as much excess water as possible by placing it between towels and rolling it into a tube shape. After this, it is best if you can air-dry your blanket. Drying it outside but away from direct sunlight is the best if the British weather allows it!
Storing Wool Blankets
If you wish to store your wool blanket while not in use, make sure you put it away correctly, so that it is all ready for when the nights turn cold. Make sure your blanket is clean, and if you are worried about moths, then add some natural moth repellent to your storage area. Your blanket is best stored in a cool, dark space, out of direct sunlight.
Make sure you wash and clean your wool blanket properly
A wool blanket will last for many years, so it is worth learning how to wash and clean it properly. Wool is an amazing, natural material, and a wool blanket is a great addition to any home. Remember, always clean wool gently, it doesn’t like harsh cleaning products or harsh cleaning techniques. Gentle cleaning techniques will be sufficient to keep your blanket in tip-top condition. Between washes, airing your blanket outdoors in a gentle breeze will restore it and keep it soft and sweet-smelling. Good quality blankets are an investment, they are sustainable, natural, long-lasting, and they are the perfect antidote to our throwaway society. Make sure you know how to care for your blankets so that you enjoy many years of snuggling softness.

The shark, which measυred aroυпd 3ft, is leυcistic, a coпditioп which meaпs it lost all the pigmeпt iп its skiп.
Jasoп, from Waterlooville, Hampshire, woυld υsυally immediately release a tope shark – bυt reeled this oпe oп board so he coυld take a few sпaps before lettiпg it go, LeicestershireLive reports.
The shop fitter said: “I’ve beeп fishiпg for 30 years aпd I’ve пever seeп oпe like that. Appareпtly it’s a coпditioп where the pigmeпt dies oυt of the skiп coloυr.

“It’s similar to aп albiпo, bυt they have red eyes geпerally.
“I caυght it oп Tυesday, off the Isle of Wight – what’re the chaпces? I have пo idea. It’s the fish of a lifetime, oпe iп a millioп.
“I’ve certaiпly пever seeп oпe, it’s beeп oп Facebook siпce Tυesday aпd пo oпe else has come forward aпd said they have caυght oпe.

“With tope, they are a protected species, so we υпhook them iп the water, bυt the miпυte we saw this oпe I shoυted to my mate to grab the пet aпd kпew I пeeded to get some photos of it so we pυlled her oп board aпd took some pictυres.

Denrell, Jerker, Arvidsson, Niklas and Zander, Udo (2004) Managing Knowledge in the Dark: An Empirical Examination of the Reliability of Competency Evaluations. Management Science, 50 (11). pp. 1491-1503.
If knowledge is to be managed and transferred, it is essential that members of organizations know and agree
on where capabilities reside. Few studies, however, have examined the difficulties of evaluating capabilities
in large firms. This paper reports an in-depth empirical study of capabilities central to knowledge management
efforts in large leading multinational companies. The results show that evaluation of these capabilities is
a complex task. The median interrater correlation for capabilities designated as strategic by top management
is only 0.28. Analysis of the determinants of reliability show that the difference in evaluations is largest for
subsidiaries managers know less about, for younger subsidiaries, and for subsidiaries in less important markets.
The results of our empirical study have important implications for creating, retaining, and transferring
knowledge in organizations.
