Now that the Inflation Reduction Act has given the left a little bit of their mojo back and given them a little more bounce in their step, they are back to clutching their pearls, wailing at the moon, and claiming that Republicans are some variant of actually Hitler.
One such liberal was MSNBC’s Tiffany Cross, who claimed recently on her show that the civil war is already underway because Republicans have been using social media to spread hate and that Fox News Channel, OAN, and Newsmax are propaganda outlets.
“And I agree with you, but it’s not really rhetoric you can deal with. You have millions of people tuning into a propaganda network every night. And then, as if that were not bad enough, that’s an extremist network itself, you have these fringe pop-up outlets from OAN to Newsmax, then you have the social media component.That train has left the station. There is no, ‘Let’s deal with the rhetoric.’ At this point, I do think we have to have serious conversations around preparing for actual violence.”
She further mentioned that we can look at what has happened just in the past week alone. There have been two people who declared was with FBI field offices. She said that at this point, no one will just pack their bags up and go home.
Remember that the MSNBC hack who said it was absurd to have to hear the perspectives of white people after the notorious Will Smith Chris Rock slap is the same one who is now clutching her pearls about the condition of American debate and how Americans are no longer united.
Since when are the Oscars a black-only family gathering with no white attendees? Aren’t these people usually whining about how white the Oscars are?
In any event, it reveals Tiffany Cross’ personality and sheds fresh insight on her remarks about the civil war. She is merely a leftist who hates white people and conservatism; she doesn’t desire harmony and peace.

An eating disorder is a compulsion to eat, or avoid eating, that negatively affects both your physical and mental health. Eating disorders are all encompassing and affect every part of your life. Although many people associate eating disorders with teenage girls, these serious and often life-threatening disorders affect women in their 30's, 40's, 50's and beyond. Eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating.

Feeling lonely can exact a devastating psychological toll, and a new study indicates that it may have negative physical consequences as well.
Recent research published in the journal SLEEP suggests that those who have one or more indicators of loneliness (as self-identified in a survey) are significantly more likely to suffer from fragmented sleep. This means they are regularly roused from deeper stages of sleep, but not necessarily fully awakened. Although that might not seem alarming in the short term, the potential long-term health effects could be considerable, says lead researcher Lianne Kurina, PhD, assistant professor of epidemiology in the Department of Health Studies at the University of Chicago.
“Having more fragmented sleep could put people at risk for downstream health outcomes, such as metabolism changes or even type 2 diabetes,” Kurina says.
While the reasons behind the findings aren’t completely clear, Kurina believes it might be linked to common characteristics found in people who feel lonely. “We know that during waking hours, lonely people are more attuned to threats and feel more vulnerable,” she says. “It’s possible that during the nighttime, this increased vigilance manifests itself as lots of micro-awakenings and more restless sleep.”
Making lifestyle adjustments that promote better-quality sleep can help (read “Getting to Sleep”), but, says Kurina, those suffering from loneliness-related sleep disturbance can get even better and more sustainable results from directly addressing their emotional state and its root causes.

Israel's insistence on Palestinian recognition of its Jewish character and the Palestinian refusal to comply is threatening bring about the collapse of US-led peace talks.
The Palestinians recognised the state of Israel at the start of the peace process in the early 1990s, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has insisted they recognise its religious character and give up on the "right of return" of Palestinian refugees.
"I will not accept an agreement that does not cancel the right of return and which does not include Palestinian recognition of the Jewish state," Netanyahu said Tuesday.
"In light of the latest statements by the Palestinians, we are getting further away from an agreement."
His remarks were made a day after Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas reiterated his refusal to recognise the "Jewishness" of Israel in a speech to the Revolutionary Council of his Fatah party, echoing a similar statement over the weekend by the Arab League.
US Secretary of State John Kerry is facing an uphill battle to keep peace talks on track beyond an April 29 deadline, with the negotiations waylaid over several key issues, including the question of recognition.
Abbas, who will meet US President Barack Obama at the White House on March 17, reassured delegates on Monday that at the age of 79 he wasn't going to "back down on his people's rights or betray their cause."
But Netanyahu has placed the recognition dispute at the forefront of the talks, describing Arab rejection of the Jewish state as the "root of the conflict."
For the Palestinians, accepting Israel as a Jewish state would mean accepting the Nakba, or "catastrophe," that befell them when 760,000 of their people fled or were forced out of their homes in the war that accompanied Israel's establishment in 1948.
They also recall the Palestinian leadership recognised "the right of the State of Israel to exist in peace and security" in 1993 at the start of the Oslo peace process.

The demand to recognise Israel as Jewish was not made of Egypt or Jordan, the only two Arab countries to have signed a peace treaty with Israel.
- 'Down Palestinian throats' -
Israel is also divided over the matter, with President Shimon Peres reportedly saying the demand was "unnecessary" and could risk derailing the negotiations.
Earlier this week, David Landau, former editor-in-chief of Haaretz newspaper, chided Netanyahu for trying to force his version of Zionism "down Palestinian throats".
"Many Israelis and Palestinians believe that Netanyahu's broaching of the 'Jewish state' issue was intended deliberately to slow the negotiations or thwart an agreement," he wrote in a column in his former newspaper.
Writing in the same paper, Ari Shavit said the Palestinians would never give up on their demand for the right of return as the Nakba was "the experience that moulded them".
"Because it is actually impossible to demand from the Palestinians that they change... it is required to demand they recognise this: that the Jewish people is a people of this land, and did not arrive here from Mars.. that the Jews are not colonialists but legal neighbours."
Washington has accepted Israel's demand that Palestinian recognition of a Jewish state be written into any deal, and such a clause is understood to be part of Kerry's framework proposal for extending the talks beyond April.
"The United States believes a lasting peace will involve two states -- Israel as a Jewish and a democratic state and the state of Palestine," White House spokesman Jay Carney said Tuesday.
"It is our hope that the prime minister and president Abbas can reach past any remaining differences and arrive at a framework that moves the process forward towards peace," Carney said, noting the "incredibly difficult and complex issues" facing both leaders.
But in order for the deadline to be extended, both Israel and the Palestinians have to first accept the framework proposal -- and without a formula to satisfy both sides, it looks unlikely to happen.

YuLife, the tech-driven insurance company on a mission to inspire life, today announced the results of a survey conducted in conjunction with YouGov which investigated the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on employees’ wellbeing in the workplace. The survey was conducted to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the UK’s first nationwide lockdown in March 2020.
The survey found that almost a quarter of UK office workers (22%) don’t take any breaks during their working day, apart from lunch breaks, and around half (46%) of people said that their employers and line managers do not encourage them to take breaks. 42% of people are more stressed at work than they were before the onset of the pandemic. Against this backdrop, some 93% of people say that employers have an obligation to safeguard employees’ wellbeing – rising to 97% among women.
Additional findings include:
Changing Lifestyle Habits
● Netflix Nation. 53% are watching more TV now than they were before the pandemic.
● Bedtime Blues. 38% of people say that their sleep quality is more disturbed than before the pandemic. 25% responded they are both sleeping less and that their sleep quality is more disrupted.
● Healthy Intentions. 69% of people say they plan healthier behavioural habits once restrictions loosen (including healthy eating, losing weight, or exercising or meditating more), rising to 82% among 18 to 24-year-olds.
Wellbeing at Work:
● Zoom Fatigue. 30% believe the lack of in-person interaction with colleagues as a result of working from home has negatively affected their wellbeing.
● Low Motivation. 33% of people say that they are less motivated in the workplace than before the pandemic.
● Help Out to Work Out. 25% believe that opportunities to exercise or improve their physical wellbeing constitute the most beneficial service employers could provide to boost their health.
“Rising stress, reduced sleep, fewer breaks and more time spent in front of screens are combining to take their toll on Britons’ wellbeing,” added Dr. Rangan Chatterjee, Chief Wellbeing Officer, YuLife. “Employers must now take the lead in encouraging employees to take simple but necessary steps to enhance their wellbeing in the workplace.”
Commenting on the findings, YuLife CEO and Founder Sammy Rubin said: “A year of widespread disruption in the wake of the pandemic has had a clear and pronounced impact on wellbeing in the workplace and on individual lifestyle habits. Employers must heed this wake-up call and strive to find solutions that respond to employees’ changing needs, ensuring that they are supported whether working from home or the office.”

Summary: My son is 6 and is an avid video game player already. He really likes Wreck it Ralph and plays it quite often, but my husband and I thought it was a little too old school. We were surprised he liked it so much because it pretty basic. We realize the its based on a game from the 80s but we thought there would still be more options like being able to race a car in Sugar Rush. Its for one player only and you basically navigate your way through obstacles on each level.
Summary: This game should have been great. Ironically its about video games and technology changing in our society. Well its badly put together. Its a platformer but its not like a platformer you'd get like popular Mario games or Sonic games. You don't get the awesome shooting you would find in Hero's Duty. No. You get a very dull constructed platformer that was poorly made. The graphics are on the Wii so you cannot attack it at full. The sound effects are fun.
Summary: My 11 year old and I saw the movie and loved it. I bought the game thinking it would be the Wreck-It Ralph game and Sugar Rush game. I ordered it online without closely reading the description. The games seen in the movie are NOT part of this game. This is a single person game and wasn't very exciting. I doubt she'll ever play it a second time.
Summary: at least i was expecting better graphics... not to mention of the flows within game.... plus it is too hard for 3 years old kid and too easy for 5 years.. my son played it once and now dosnt want to play with it... better to have mario then this one...

Jon and Kate plus Eight.
Who are these people? Where did they come from?
Jon & Kate plus WHO CARES?
Doesn’t your life have enough drama? Is this the kind of TV you want to watch?
The couple is on every channel seemingly around the clock.
I put on Headline News expecting to find out if Congress is ram-rodding health care down my throat and instead, there is crazy Nancy Grace going ga ga over Jon and Kate go to court.
Bright graphics cover the screen like a spider web of snot. You’d think NYC was attacked by a plane load of H1N1 infected Al Quaida.
Nope, the serious topic before me is Jon and What’s her name and their so what life.
Grace is in the center of the crazy, alarming graphic and she’s rolling her eyes making that face that seems better suited for Saturday Night Live.
Breaking news graphics flash:
Jon Gosselin ordered to return money to Kate.
Another breaking news graphic says: Now judge rules Jon must give back $180 thousand.
I find myself laughing. I don’t care. I don’t know why Jon allegedly owes Kate money, and Im not sure why the judge feels he should pay it back. All I know is that the papparazzi is following this guy across the street and they are acting like he’s Michael Jackson’s sleep doctor.
What’s crazier than this? People are calling in from all over the country. They know the story and they know the nuances and they feel like they must voice their opinion. It kind of makes me sad, that this is the mentallity in the country. It makes me think of Jay Walking with Jay Leno. Jay asks people questions they should know like who discovered America. Instead Americans show thier ass. How stupid is this country? They don’t know who won the Civil War but these same street walking idiots know all about Kate and Jon plus eight kids.
One of the guys in the video box is a lawyer and he is hot under the collar about this issue saying, “They have no talent or skills, so this video train wreck is the only way they can make money.”
I am not sure what he is commenting on, but I agree that these two have no talent and no skills that I can see.
Nancy Grace is a crazed Zombie as she stares at the experts in the video boxes that seemingly swirl around her head.
Video shows the couple walking into rooms and across the street. Every where they go there is a gaggle of cameras following behind. You’d think that Princess Di had come back from the dead.
Beside the sadness I have for the American Public who apparently knows this story, I have saddness for the eight kids who now have a mom and dad going through a very public seperation that is augmented by scary graphics and idiotic commentary.
That’s not crazy. It’s just sad.

The Vermont Transportation Board at 6 p.m. on November 16 will hold a public forum in White River Junction on transportation policy associated with trains, both passenger and freight. The Board wants to discuss railroad related issues with the public – including passenger expansion to Montreal, rail-side economic development and living with railroads as neighbors – to determine how future policy can be shaped to best position Vermont’s rail interests to meet the needs of the state residents.
The forum, which will be held at the Hotel Coolidge at 39 South Main Street, is one of seven such public conversations the Board is holding around the state. Topics the Board plans to discuss include:
- Living with railroads as neighbors, and the issues they present.
- Passenger rail expansion along Vermont’s western corridor between Rutland and Burlington.
- Passenger rail expansion from various points in Vermont to Montreal.
- Truck traffic through villages and town centers, and the effect of rail expansion.
- Adjacent rail-side economic development and planning for increased rail activity.
- Starting commuter rail service linking Brattleboro to various points in Massachusetts.
- Rail Safety, including crossings, trespassing and response to potential emergency incidents.
“Vermont is poised to significantly expand passenger rail in the very near future, while at the same time the state also is seeking growth opportunities for both the movement and off-loading of freight,” said David Coen, Acting Chair of the Transportation Board. “As a result, we want to have a conversation with Vermonters to both hear their suggestions as well as understand their concerns regarding these new services and how the state uses its rail lines.”
People who cannot attend a forum can submit written comment by visiting the Board’s website at http://tboard.vermont.gov/. For more information, contact John Zicconi at email@example.com or by calling 802-828-2942.

Then there was this night when I knew stars wander not just in skies but on the muddy soils of tiny villages in Tamil Nadu. Not that I was unaware of the tiny dots and zig zag lines that adorn the humble courtyards of South Indian homes, but the realisation these everyday artists knew very little of the grandeur they created in little over 30 minutes in an unknown corner of the universe.
Maariamma is a housewife and agricultural labourer from the lower strata of a tiny village in Tamil Nadu traditionally segmented class and caste wise. Our conversation over a tea constantly clashed between my curiosity over her kolam practice sans mistakes and her curiosity over my hair cropped world. “A few scribbles on a piece of paper for a few minutes, that’s it!”, she mentioned on her preparation for the annual kolam competition that run among the neighbours of her tiny village on the Pongal day.
All I could remember is the edge she started the Kolam and the centre point where she completed the labyrinth of wiggly lines. A yard brimming with a beautiful crochet mat soon to vanish in the muddle of a village day!
At the suburban alleys of islet Mulavukad, the air still carries the sights and smell of Portugese legacy across the lagoons. Leisurely evenings at this suburban neighbourhood of Kochi buzz with the murmurs of chapel goers and neighbourhood tea-time chit chats. It was not hard to single out Baby Correya from among the churchgoer lot. She really stood out in her red- check thuni and blouse, otherwise known as Kebaya or Kavaya as pronounced in Kerala.
In her late 70s, Baby is perhaps one among the last few Kochin Anglo Indians of Portugese descent still wearing the age old dress called Kavaya. It is nothing but a full sleeve, close fitting, knee length jacket worn with a double layered wraparound (thuni) similar to the Lungi of Kerala men or Dakmanda worn by Garo women of Meghalaya. Baby continues to love wearing Kavaya even while a generation of her friends moved on to frocks, saris and then churidhar. “Some of us may be the last few to wear a Kavaya. A tradition will vanish with us”, says Baby with much anguish. Her neighbour Thresia D’silva aged 80, equally nods her love for Kavaya but laments about the unavailability of the thuni these days.
Kochi based Anglo Indian Voice Magazine presents Kavaya as introduced by Eurasian Nonas of Malacca and Macao many of whom were brought to Kerala and given in marriage to Portugese settlers. Even today Kavaya is the regular dress of Malayasian and Indonesian women. From Kollam to Kannur, this was the trademark dress of Parangi women. It has slowly given way to Indian saris, frocks and other western dresses. While Kavaya in south-east Asia comes in vibrant colours and floral patterns, Kochin Kavaya traditionally remained in just two colours – deep red and black checks. The red one along with floral jackets is for daily use and the black (along with a black jacket) is worn for a year after the death of someone in the immediate family. Baby remembers the last time she wore a black Kavaya was 17 years ago when her husband passed away. Within the last decade, black Kavaya has slowly disappeared from its usage among choochis (elderly anglo Indian women) and subsequently from the market. Kavaya was originally worn with gold buttons interconnected with a gold chain. They also used accompanying ornaments like the Cotinha ( a type of gold chain ) and Alpaneth (a brooch like accessory), along with a bun hairstyle.
The executive director of Anglo Indian Voice Magazine Declin Rodrigues says, “Kavaya’s unusual extended legacy in the state owes to ordinary anglo Indians of Kerala deeply inclined to the culture and traditions of the state. Similar attire in Goa succumbed to western influence much earlier than we do.” According to his estimate, around 100 nonas continue to wear this dress till date and 80% of them live in and around Kochi.
As the number of choochis wearing Kavaya plunged in the recent years, many stores have stopped selling Kavaya thuni. Earlier, stores such as Janatha at the heart of the city used to sell the thuni brought from Thevara and Madras. These days the only remaining outlet to buy Kavaya thuni is the erstwhile Gregory’s store, now renamed as Swapana, at Elamkunnapuza. These days orders for the thuni peaks only during pre-christmas months as sons and daughters prep to gift their aged mommanjis at the festive occasion.
Baby D’Cotha, an 82 year old native of Elakunnapuzha remembers the local church gathering of fourteen Kavaya wearing choochis held a couple of years ago. She remembers the gathering to be the largest to have held in recent times. A few of the participants from the meeting passed away since then leaving her with fewer friends in her age group. As generations wither and traditions fade, Kavaya may shrink to memories in a photo album or in a local museum in the years to come. Till then it is for us to hear the last remaining stories from a passing generation clad in red checks and floral jackets.

In addition to their superior sense of smell, dogs can hear sound frequencies at least three times as high compared to the human ear. Just like with thunderstorms, many dogs’ fear of vacuums stems from the loud, high-frequency noises the machine makes.
How do I get my dog to not be afraid of the vacuum?
Here’s how to turn your dog’s angst into anticipation—the happy kind—when the vacuum is in use. Movement, No Noise. Introduce the vacuum at a distance while it’s off. Heel With Vacuum. Vacuum Check Without Sound. Vacuum On Signals Play. Self-Initiated Play. Position and Move Vacuum and Treat. Reward Ears up. Nozzle Attachment.
Why are dogs scared of vacuums and brooms?
Prey drive is a very strong instinctive behavior in many breeds of dog. Now your dog thinks he is being attacked by the broom. In an animal’s mind, this is going down the fight or flight mode of reaction and before you know it you have a dog that fears the broom and needs to attack.
Is it OK to vacuum a dog?
Never vacuum your pet hair with the ordinary attachment on your vacuum. It will unnerve the dog, but at the same time, it’s possibly hurtful and doesn’t work particularly well. You’re better off putting some money into a specific vacuum that uses softer bristles made especially for your dog’s skin and hair.
Why are animals scared of vacuums?
Dogs and cats are scared of loud noises, and vacuums are loud. This is kind of an obvious one, but the main reason dogs and cats are so afraid of vacuums is probably the loud, crumb-guzzling sounds they make. This fear of loud noises isn’t unique to the vacuum, of course.
What happens if you yell at your dog?
Yelling at your dog does not work because it will just get him more stressed or it will only increase his energy level and how excited he is about the situation. Instead, your Bark Busters dog trainer can teach you how to use a calm yet firm voice to refocus your dog and to teach the desired behavior.
Can a dog be mad at you?
Your dog is definitely capable of emotion and may feel upset, but they are not “mad” at you. If your dog acts out when you leave, it’s not anger fueling that activity — it’s boredom. Dogs live in the moment, so any negative emotion they experience will go away as soon as the cause of the upset is removed.
Is there a phobia of vacuums?
Zuigerphobia, or the fear of vacuum cleaners, is a specific phobia. A specific phobia is an irrational, yet excessive fear of a particular object.
Do dogs get used to Roomba?
Most dogs can adapt to a robotic vacuum quickly unlike with a traditional vacuum. One of the major reasons for that is because the robot does not seem much of a threat to them. On top of that, it will not produce as much noise as your upright vacuum. Dogs have sensitive ears and traditional vacs are usually very loud.
Why are dogs so loyal?
The simple explanation: you give them food. The simplest explanation for your dog’s loyalty is that you give them food and shelter. There is a scientific basis for this: domestic dogs are descended from wolves, which man once took in and tamed with shelter and food in return for them acting as guard dogs.
Why do dogs lick you?
“Dogs often lick people to show affection, as a greeting, or to simply get our attention. Of course, if you happen to have a little food, lotion, or salty sweat on your skin, that may play a role as well.” Along with affection, these are some other things your dog actually wants from you.
Will vacuuming my dog get rid of fleas?
Finally, a study shows vacuuming is indeed an effective weapon. Experiments conducted by Ohio State University researchers on the cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis)—the most common type of flea plaguing companion animals, such as dogs and cats, and humans—showed that vacuuming killed fleas in all stages of life.
Can I vacuum my dog Dyson?
If you really like to pamper your pooch, then it’s time to hoover your hound. The Dyson Groom tool is a vacuum-cleaner attachment that takes care of your dog’s hair, keeping your moulting mutt from messing up your home.
Why do dogs hate the mailman?
Intruder Alert! The most common reason why dogs hate postal workers is that they’re entering your property. Since the beginning of time, canines have protected their resources. In the wild, wolves and wild dogs will show aggressive behavior any time a person or animal gets near something they believe is theirs.
Why do dogs hate the middle finger?
Yes, it’s true, dogs do get mad when you show them the middle finger. It confuses them because they don’t really understand what you’re trying to communicate. So if you do show your dog the middle finger, just make sure you’re balancing one of his favorite treats on it.
Can I vacuum cat?
You wrote asking if it is okay to vacuum your cat as a method to control hair in your home. The answer is yes, as long as your cat doesn’t mind. Some cats are terrified of the vacuum and others don’t mind it.
How do dogs say sorry?
Dogs apologise by having droopy years, wide eyes, and they stop panting or wagging their tails. That is sign one. If the person does not forgive them yet, they start pawing and rubbing their faces against the leg. Instead of just saying sorry as humans do, dogs acknowledge that they have done a mistake.
Do dogs know when they hurt you?
Dogs do not know when they hurt you because they do not understand the concept of pain in the same way humans do. They can feel fear, shame, or relief but cannot truly know when something is harmful. Although it seems like dogs know when they inflict pain, it is, in reality, a trained reaction.
Do dogs forgive abusers?
A dog cannot “forgive” an abusive owner in the way humans might think of forgiveness, but the dog will also only associate that abusive behavior with the specific circumstances surrounding the abuser. Dogs forgive, but not quite as much as they forget.
How do I tell my dog I love him?
5 Ways to Tell Your Dog You Love Him Rub His Ears. Instead of patting your pup on the top of the head, try giving him a gentle rub behind the ears. Lean on Him. Has your dog ever pressed up against your legs or leaned into you while you were sitting together? Gaze Softy Into His Eyes. Have Fun Together. Snuggle.
Do dogs get sad when you yell at them?
When our dogs act up, one of the first instinctive reactions is to shout. However, experts have revealed that shouting at your dog can actually do more harm then good when trying to teach your pup to be well behaved. In fact, not only is it likely to make them naughtier, it can even lead to even stress and depression.
Can dogs get jealous?
But do dogs also exhibit some of the negative side effects of deep love, such as jealousy? A study published in Psychological Science says yes. The researchers found that dogs will go so far as to show jealousy even when they can only imagine their owners are interacting with a potential rival.

The Difference is that a heliocentric model says that the sun is in the center but not the exact center and all the other planets and the moon orbit the sun. But a geocentric model states that the earth was in the center and that the sun moon and stars all went around earth. That is the difference.
Also, All the planets revolve around the sun.
Stars are very much farther away than the Sun.
Any motion of the stars is a result of the Earth's rotation.
Any movement of the Sun is due to Earth's rotation and revolution about the sun.
The heliocentric model were ellipses NOT circular orbits.

About 90 cases of an intestinal illness in Illinois have been tied to McDonald’s salads, health officials said Thursday.
Since mid-May, cases have been reported in counties across Illinois, the health department statement said.
“If you ate a salad from McDonald’s since mid-May and developed diarrhea and fatigue, contact a health care provider about testing and treatment,” Nirav D. Shah, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, said.
McDonald’s is in the process of removing potentially contaminated salads from its restaurants, and re-supplying them.
Cyclosporiasis is an intestinal illness caused by the Cyclospora parasite. People can get infected by consuming food or water contaminated with feces that contains the parasite — it does not spread from one person to another. If not treated with antibiotics, it could last between a few days to a month or longer.
There are some of the symptoms, which usually begin about a week after exposure:
- Frequent diarrhea (most common)
- Loss of appetite
- Cramping, bloating, increased gas
- Low-grade fever

Dr. Kathy Mann, working for the National Institutes of Health, has discovered that children’s brains reorganize as they are learning math. That means experience does matter and drilling children at home on simple addition and multiplication really could pay off in the long run, says Lauren Neergaard writing for the Associated Press.
You can read more here, but the big take away is that the Common Core math standards run completely counter to this research. The new conceptual method Common core champions are backwards and counterproductive. They are not appropriate for how children actually learn, which is what experts have been saying from the beginning. The Common Core math standards undermine the way children learn naturally and effectively. But homeschoolers have already known this. I wonder how supporters will answer this latest setback.


Republic of Korea also known as South Korea hits China for trying to influence the possible deployment of a United States missile defense system, Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense (THAAD). US deems necessary to install a missile defense system in South Korea to counter the North Korean threat. THAAD is an anti-ballistic missile system designed to shoot down short, medium, and intermediate ballistic missiles in their terminal phase using a hit-to-kill approach.
“A neighboring country can have its own opinion on the possible deployment of the Thaad system here by the U.S. forces in South Korea,” South Korean Defense Ministry spokesman Kim Min-seok said in a regular press briefing as quoted by Yonhap News. “But it should not try to influence our security policy.”
“China holds a consistent and clear stance on the anti-missile issue. When pursuing its own security interests, one country should take into account other’s security concerns as well as regional peace and stability. We hope certain countries can be prudent when handling relevant issues,” Chinese Foreign Ministry said as response to SoKor Defense Ministry’s statement.
US Assistant Secretary of State Daniel Russel said he finds “it curious that a third country would presume to make strong presentations about a security system that has not been put in place and that is still a matter of theory.”

His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, yesterday visited a number of the Armed Forces servicemen who were wounded while performing their national duty during the Arab Coalition's 'Operation Restore Hope in Yemen, at Zayed Military Hospital in Abu Dhabi.
Sheikh Mohamed was reassured by attending doctors about the health condition of the wounded soldiers. While talking to them, H.H. praised their steadfastness, heroism and dedication they made while defending the right and supporting their brethren in Yemen.
Sheikh Mohamed was accompanied by H.H. Sheikh Hazza bin Zayed Al Nahyan, National Security Advisor and Deputy Chairman of Abu Dhabi Executive Council, and H.H. Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Presidential Affairs.
The wounded servicemen said during conversations with Sheikh Mohamed that they cannot wait to recover and re-join their units in the battlefield, and pledged loyalty to their fallen brothers.
Sheikh Mohamed praised their bravery and loyalty, and assured them that with such a spirit the UAE will overcome all difficulties, and reach its goals. He wished them a speedy recovery.
Sheikh Mohamed said the wounds of the UAE's soldiers are medals of honour and proof of their sacrifices and gallantry in defending their country's values and principles of solidarity with their Arab brothers in support of their just cause. –End-

THE OXTED PLAYERS
Child Protection Policy
THE OXTED PLAYERS recognises its duty of care under the Children and Young Persons Acts 1933 and 1963, the Children’s Act 1989, the Protection of Children Act 1999, the Criminal Justice Court Services Act 2000 and Children (Performances and Activities) (England) Regulations 2014 For the purposes of the Child Protection Procedures contained within this policy and pursuant to the performance regulations, the definition of “a child” is a young person under the age of 17 who remains of compulsory school age until the last Friday in June of the academic year in which they are 16, the academic year running from 1 September to 31 August inclusive. However, the Society also recognises the need to provide appropriate and proportionate protection to any person who has not reached adulthood (i.e. 18) and will endeavour to ensure that those falling outside the scope of performance legislation by reason of age or status are also suitably and appropriately protected in accordance with the Policy.
The Society is committed to providing a safe environment where children are able to participate in any theatre activity or youth workshop without fear of abuse or harm, giving youngsters the ability to express their views on any issues or decisions that affect them. The Society recognises that abuse can take many forms, whether it be physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse or neglect. The Society is committed to taking positive steps to prevent such abuse of children involved in theatre activities. It is the responsibility of all members of the Society to be aware of and adhere to the child protection policies and procedures currently in force.
The Society will appoint a Child Protection Officer or Officers whose responsibilities are outlined later in this document.
The Society believes that:
• The welfare of the child is paramount;
• All children, whatever their age, culture, disability, gender, language, racial origin, religious beliefs and/or sexual identity have the right to protection from abuse;
• All suspicions and allegations of abuse should be taken seriously and responded to swiftly and appropriately;
• All members and employees of the Society should be clear on how to respond appropriately.
The Society will ensure that:
• All children will be treated equally and with respect;
• The welfare of each child will always be put first;
• A balanced relationship based on mutual trust will be built;
• Bullying will not be accepted or condoned;
• All adult members of the Society provide a positive role model for dealing with other people;
• Action will be taken to stop any inappropriate verbal or physical behaviour;
• It will keep up to date with health and safety legislation;
• It will keep informed of changes in legislation and policies for the protection of children;
• It will undertake relevant development and training;
• It will hold a register of every child involved with the Society and will retain a contact name and number close at hand in case of emergencies;
• It will apply to the appropriate Licensing Authority for performing licences where appropriate
The Society has child protection procedures which accompany this policy. This policy should also be read in conjunction with the Society’s Equal Opportunities Policy and Health and Safety Policy.
The Society will appoint a Child Protection Officer who is in charge of ensuring that the child protection policy and procedures are adhered to.
This policy will be regularly monitored by the Committee of the Society and will be subject to annual review.
CHILD PROTECTION PROCEDURES
Responsibilities of the Society
At the outset of any production or workshop involving children the Society will:
• Undertake a risk assessment and monitor risk throughout the production process
• Identify at the outset the person with designated responsibility for child protection
• Engage in effective recruitment of chaperones and other individuals with responsibility for children
including appropriate vetting.
• Ensure that children are supervised at all times
• Know how to get in touch with the Local Authority Social Services in case it needs to report a concern
• The Society believes it to be important that there is a partnership between parents and the Society.
• Parents are encouraged to be involved in the activities of the Society and to share responsibility for the
care of children. All parents will be given a copy of the Child Protection Policy and procedures.
• All parents have the responsibility to collect (or arrange collection of) their children after rehearsals or
performances. It is NOT the responsibility of the Society to take children home.
• The Society will attempt to ensure that no adult has unsupervised contact with children
• If possible there will always be two adults in the room when working with children.
• If unsupervised contact is unavoidable, steps will be taken to minimise risk. For example, work will
be carried out in a public area or in a designated room with a door open.
• If it is predicted that an individual is likely to require unsupervised contact with children, he or she
may be required to obtain a criminal record disclosure.
• Adults will only touch children when it is absolutely necessary in relation to the particular activity.
• Adults will seek the consent of the child prior to any physical contact and the purpose of the contact
shall be made clear.
Managing Sensitive Information
• The Society has a policy and procedures for the taking, using and storage of photographs or images of
• Permission will be sought from the parents for the use of photographic material featuring children for
promotional or other purposes
• The Society’s web-based materials and activities will be carefully monitored for inappropriate use.
The Society will ensure confidentiality in order to protect the rights of its members, including the safe
handling, storage and disposal of any sensitive information such as criminal record disclosures.
Suspicion of abuse
• If you see or suspect abuse of a child while in the care of the Society, please make this known to a
person with responsibility for child protection. If you suspect that person with responsibility for child
protection is the source of the problem, you should make your concerns known to the Chairman
• Please make a note for your own records of what you witnessed as well as your response in case there
is a follow up in which you are involved.
• If a serious allegation is made against any member of the Society, chaperone, venue staff, etc. that
individual will be suspended immediately until the investigation is concluded. The individual will be excluded from the theatre, rehearsal rooms, etc. and will not have any unsupervised contact with any other children in the production.
Disclosure of abuse
If a child confides in you that abuse has taken place:
• Remain calm and in control but do not delay taking action.
• Listen carefully to what has been said. Allow the child to tell you at their own pace and ask questions only for clarification. Don’t ask questions that suggest a particular answer.
• Don’t promise to keep it a secret. Use the first opportunity you have to share the information with the person with responsibility for child protection. Make it clear to the child that you will need to share this information with others. Make it clear that you will only tell the people who need to know and who should be able to help.
• Reassure the child that “they did the right thing” in telling someone
• Tell the child what you are going to do next
• Speak immediately to the person with responsibility for child protection. It is that person’s responsibility to liaise with the relevant authorities, usually Social Services or the Police.
• As soon as possible after the disclosing conversation, make a note of what was said, using the child’s own words. Note the date, time, any names that were involved or mentioned, and who you gave the information to. Make sure you sign and date your record.
• In all situations, including those in which the cause of concern arises from a disclosure made in confidence, the details of an allegation or reported incident will be recorded, regardless of whether or not the concerns have been shared with a statutory child protection agency.
• An accurate note shall be made of the date and time of the incident or disclosure, the parties involved, what was said or done and by whom, any action taken to investigate the matter, any further action taken, e.g. suspension of an individual, where relevant the reasons why the matter was not referred to a statutory agency, and the name of the persons reporting and to whom it was reported.
• The record will be stored securely and shared only with those who need to know about the incident or allegation.
Rights and Confidentiality
• If a complaint is made against a member of the Society, he or she will be made aware of his rights under the Society’s disciplinary procedures.
• No matter how you may feel about the accusation, both the alleged abuser and the child who is thought to have been abused have the right to confidentiality under the Data Protection Act l998. Remember also that any possible criminal investigation could be compromised through inappropriate information being released.
• In criminal law the Crown or other prosecuting authority has to prove guilt and the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty
• To avoid accidents, chaperones and children will be advised of “house rules” regarding health and safety and will be notified of areas that are out of bounds. Children will be advised of the clothing and footwear appropriate to the work that will be undertaken.
• If a child is injured while in the care of the Society, appropriate measures will be taken to ensure that first aid is administered at the earliest opportunity and the injury will be recorded in the Theatre or premises accident book and in the Society’s accident book. This record will be countersigned by the person with responsibility for child protection.
• If a child joins the production with an obvious physical injury, a record of this will be made in the Society’s accident book. This record will be countersigned by the person with responsibility for child protection. This record can be useful if a formal allegation is made later, and will also be a record that the child did not sustain the injury while participating in the production.
Criminal Record Disclosures
• If the Society believes it is in its best interests to obtain DBS disclosures for their chaperones and personnel (licensed chaperones would already hold current enhanced DBS disclosures) it will inform the individual of the necessary procedures and the level of disclosure required. A Standard Disclosure will apply for anyone with supervised access to children. An Enhanced Disclosure will be required for anyone with unsupervised access.
• The Society will have a written code of practice for the handling of disclosure information.
• The Society will ensure that information contained in the disclosure is not misused.
• Chaperones will be appointed by the Society for the care of the children during the production process. By law the chaperone is acting in loco parentis and should exercise the care which a good parent might be reasonably expected to give to a child. The maximum number of children in the chaperone’s care shall not exceed 12.
• Potential chaperones will ideally be approved and registered by the Licensing Authority and provide proof of their current registration. Chaperones will always be present to supervise children during dress rehearsals and performances. Any other person likely to assist in chaperoning during rehearsals who might potentially have unsupervised access to children in their care will be required to hold current Enhanced DBS disclosure and produce proof of the same together with other identification unless already well known to the Society.
• Chaperones will be made aware of the Society’s Child Protection Policy and Procedures.
• Where chaperones are not satisfied with the conditions for the children, they should bring this to the attention of the director and/or the Society. If changes cannot be made satisfactorily, the chaperone should consider not allowing the child to continue.
• If a chaperone considers that a child is unwell or too tired to continue, the chaperone must inform the director and not allow the child to continue.
• Under the Dangerous Performances Act, no child of compulsory school age is permitted to do anything which may endanger life or limb. This could include working on wires or heavy lifting. Chaperones should tell the director to cease using children in this way and should report the matter to the Committee.
• During performances, registered Chaperones will be responsible for meeting children at the stage door and signing them into the building.
• Children will be kept together at all times except when using separate dressing rooms.
• Chaperones will be aware of where the children are at all times.
• School age children are not to leave the Theatre unsupervised by Chaperones unless in the company of their parents, guardians or appointed representatives.
• Children will be adequately supervised while going to and from the toilets.
• Children will not be allowed to enter the adult dressing rooms unless accompanied by a Chaperone and for the purpose of accessing the stage.
• Chaperones should be aware of the safety arrangements and first aid procedures in the venue, and will ensure that children in their care do not place themselves and others in danger.
• Chaperones should ensure that any accidents are reported to and recorded by the Society.
• Chaperones should keep a record of any accidents which occur and should use their discretion as to whether any child who has sustained an accident should continue and if in doubt call for medically qualified opinion.
• Chaperones should ensure that they have written arrangements for children after and between performances.
• Children should be signed out when leaving and a record made of the person collecting them.
If a child has not been collected, it is the duty of the chaperone to stay with that child until satisfactory arrangements are made to take them home.

About L’appel Du Vide
There exists a psychological phenomenon in which perfectly sane people, with no desire to die, find themselves faced with a steep cliff and experience a strong desire to leap. To jump from their safe vantage point into the unknown. This phenomenon is so common in fact, that the french have a term for it: L’appel du Vide – Call of the Void.

Phnom Penh in the rain As you may have heard, the East Coast got some weird weather this weekend (also known as Snoloween). I couldn’t help but feel bad for the poor tourists who must have come to DC expecting a nice fall weekend monument tour and instead had to trek through snow and sleet. I had actually planned to head down to the national mall on Saturday, but because of the weather decided to reschedule for a weekend with sunnier skies. It was nice that since I live here I had this option – obviously when you … Read More
We had planned to spend our first day in Jordan driving down the King’s Highway from Madaba towards Petra. We had been told that the historic road offered interesting scenery and many stopping points of interest. The night before we had worked with our hotel to hire a car to take us on our desired route with stops at a few recommended sites. Afterwards we took a short stroll through the town and pretty soon our clothes were plastered to our bodies and we were exhausted from the intense heat of the Jordanian summer. It was enough to convince us to throw away … Read More

Why it issues: An attention-grabbing article posted at WikiChip discusses the severity of SRAM shrinkage issues within the semiconductor trade. Producer TSMC is reporting that its SRAM transistor scaling has fully flatlined to the purpose the place SRAM caches are staying the identical measurement on a number of nodes, regardless of logic transistor densities persevering with to shrink. This isn’t ideally suited, and it’ll power processor SRAM caches to take up more room on a microchip die. This in flip might improve manufacturing prices of the chips and forestall sure microchip architectures from changing into as small as they might doubtlessly be.
Almost all processors depend on some type of SRAM caching. Caches act as a excessive velocity storage answer with very quick entry occasions because of their strategic placement proper subsequent to the processing cores. Having quick and accessible storage can considerably improve processing efficiency and end in much less wasted time for the cores to do their work.
On the 68th Annual IEEE Worldwide EDM convention, TSMC revealed enormous issues with SRAM scaling. The corporate’s subsequent node it’s growing for 2023, N3B, will embrace the identical SRAM transistor density as its predecessor N5, which is utilized in CPUs like AMD’s Ryzen 7000 sequence.
One other node at the moment in improvement for 2024, N3E shouldn’t be that significantly better, that includes a measly 5% discount in SRAM transistor measurement…
For a broader perspective, WikiChip shared a graph of TSMC’s SRAM scaling historical past from 2011 to 2025. The primary half of the graph — representing TSMC’s 16nm and 7nm days — exhibits how SRAM scaling was not a subject and the way it was getting smaller at a fast tempo. However as soon as the graph hits 2020, scaling mainly flatlines, with three generations of TSMC logic nodes utilizing almost similar SRAM sizes: N5, N3B and N3E.
With logic transistor density nonetheless growing at a fast tempo — as much as 1.7x within the case of N3E — however with out SRAM transistor density following the identical path, SRAM will begin consuming a whole lot of die house as time goes on. Wikichip demonstrated this with a hypothetical 10 billion transistor chip, working on a number of nodes. On N16 (16nm), the die is massive with simply 17.6% of the die space composed of SRAM transistors, on N5, this goes as much as 22.5%, and 28.6% on N3.
WikiChip additionally studies that TSMC is not the one producer with comparable issues. Intel has additionally seen noticeable slowdowns in SRAM transistor shrinkage on its Intel 4 course of.
Except that is someway remedied, we might quickly see SRAM caches consuming as a lot as 40% of a processor’s die house. This may result in chip architectures having to be reworked and add to improvement prices. One other approach producers would possibly cope is to decrease cache capability altogether, which would scale back efficiency. Nevertheless, there are various reminiscence replacements being checked out, together with MRAM, FeRAM, and NRAM, to call a couple of. However for now, it stays a problem with no clear reply within the rapid future.

Cyberspace - Bootleg online images of Kate Middleton's second trimester brat have been traced to London's Royal Freak Hospital's ultrasound department.
They show a previously unrecorded species gestating in her rent-a-bun-oven amid rumors that a mystery donor was behind its fertilization.
"So far we've counted two horns, four legs and a tail," a BumsNet.con moderator commented, "flailing from a shiny green jellyfish-shaped embryo.
"Still, that's exactly how her firstborn brat - whatssisname, Justin Bieber - looked like before shedding its exoderm scales along with the fangs."
Publication of the snaps has been condemned by Buckingham Palace which hired Kate in an act of desperation to perpetuate a sordid genome long past its sell-by.
Since then millions of pounds of taxpayer dosh has protected Her Royal Irrelevance from public screwtiny.
A copy of the 2011 prenup also posted online 'completely exonerates' Bieber's birth father but names him as David Cameron.

Small-scale hydro developer Green Highland Renewables has generated £55 million for the Highland economy so far this year but warns feed-in tariff cuts will end to development.
The Perth-based company, which has invested more than £117 million in the Highland economy since 2010, is on track to commission ten new projects across the north of Scotland in the coming months, all of which have secured feed-in tariffs.
Green Highland Renewables said it plans to invest a further £13.6 million in a hydro scheme at Loch Eilde Mor in 2017 alongside nine other projects in the area for a total investment of around £40 million.
Chief executive Mark Mathieson said the UK Government's announcement last year it will cut tariffs on hydro development “means there will be near to zero new Highland schemes coming forward for construction from 2018 onwards”. He added: “We expect 80% of all hydro jobs will be gone by 2020.”
The UK Government announced last December is has revised down Feed-In Tariff (FIT) rates for electricity generated from solar, wind, hydro and anaerobic digestion to 4.39 pence per Kilowatt hour (kWh).
Said Kenneth Gibson:
“Only last year hydro feed-in tariff rates for schemes below a capacity of 15 kilowatts was 21.12 pence per kWh and for capacities up to 100 kilowatts was 19.72 pence per kWh. Such drastic reductions impact on the ability of Scotland to develop clean, green renewable technologies. Meanwhile, money seems to be no object in taking forward the astronomically expensive and unproven nuclear technology approved at Hinkley Point.
“If the UK Tory Government is serious about renewables, it should reconsider its feed-in tariff cuts, which are across all renewable technologies and can only impact adversely on the development of renewables and the employment that goes with it.”

In 2008, a cycling accident left bioethicist Margaret Battin's husband quadriplegic and dependent on life support technology. The accident forced Battin, a right-to-die advocate, to reflect on the positions she's taken in the past and decide whether she still believes in them.
Science journalist Emily Anthes talks about how scientists are engineering mice with tumors and working to create pigs that can grow organs for human transplant and insects that could serve as drones for the military.
In a new book, medical ethicist Harriet Washington details how genes and tissues are increasingly being patented by pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Those firms, she argues, are focused more on their profits than on the medical needs of patients.
In 1951, Henrietta Lacks died after a long battle with cervical cancer. Doctors cultured her cells without permission from her family. The story of those cells — known as HeLa cells, in Lacks' honor — and of the medical advances that came from them, is told in Rebecca Skloot's book, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.
In Stem Cell Now, bioethics expert Christopher Thomas Scott explores the possibilities of what some consider the greatest discovery since nuclear fusion: the isolation of embryonic stem cells for research.
Bioethicist George Annas and Director of the Law, Medicine & Ethics Program, Boston University Schools of Medicine, Public Health and Law. "Standard of Care," (Oxford University Press) is his new book which examines how the law has shaped medical practice. ANNAS believes the law has a bigger impact on medical ethics than does philosophy or medicine. For instance, he says because doctors are afraid of litigation, they often don't use sound medical judgement.
Ruth Macklin is an ethicist who helped develop a new philosophical approach to patient-focused care. She advocates for the informed consent model of medical treatment, and advises doctors and medical professionals on the best way to help resolve difficult issues, especially when their desires conflict with those of the patient.


Berube changing up game plan against the Rangers
In an effort to stymie Rangers star Ryan McDonagh, the Flyers coach wants Claude Giroux's line to play more of a dump-in game.
JAKE VORACEK was not shy.
Thinking back to the Flyers' 3-1 loss to the Rangers at Madison Square Garden on March 26, Voracek said New York defenseman Ryan McDonagh "owned" his line.
"We were overthinking it too much against him," Voracek said. "He's a very smart defenseman; he reads the ice very well. He's so good at picking off passes."
With Ray Emery filling in for the injured Steve Mason in Game 1, and even less room for error, McDonagh's stout work at the blue line has forced Flyers coach Craig Berube to alter his game plan. And it might not be all that pretty to watch.
A gritty Flyers-Rangers playoff series: Imagine that.
In one word, Berube described the style he wants Claude Giroux, Voracek and Scott Hartnell to play against McDonagh as "unfulfilling." Unless they have a clear break to carry it in the offensive zone, Berube has instructed his players to dump the puck in New York's end, particularly in McDonagh's direction, to see whether they can pin the should-be Norris Trophy candidate behind his net and create scoring opportunities that way.
Fred Shero employed that tactic 40 years ago on Bobby Orr when the Flyers won their first Stanley Cup. But for a 2014 Flyers team that has evolved into a more possession-conscious team, this will be a marked change of pace.
"You can't let him force turnovers at the blue line, because he's just a killer," Berube said. "It's kind of an unfulfilling way for a player to play - because you don't want to give the puck up. I talked to our team today about grinding it out. Just wait for your opportunities.
"To try to beat him wide with speed, other than Voracek, [McDonagh is] probably going to win that battle a lot of times."
The Flyers' first-round series with the Rangers quite possibly will be won or lost based on their first line's willingness to adhere to Berube's demands and their success at retrieving those pucks dumped in.
The Flyers are 3-0 at Madison Square Garden when Giroux scores a goal; they are 1-12 when he does not.
This designed game plan doesn't necessarily neuter the creativity of Giroux and Voracek off the rush - it just forces them to make a conscious decision in advance of the blue line.
Berube really has no other choice, given the way McDonagh has stymied Giroux this season. Giroux, the fourth-leading scorer in the NHL, collected only two assists in the four-game season series.
He was constantly hounded by McDonagh.
Out of the 88 shifts (76 minutes, 9 seconds) Giroux played against the Rangers, McDonagh was on the ice hawking him for 67 of them (76 percent), according to ShiftChart.com. Most of the shifts Giroux lost McDonagh in the matchup game this season were in the second and third periods of the Flyers' Jan. 12 loss, when New York jumped out to a commanding, 3-0 lead in the first 10 minutes and the Rangers could take their foot off the gas pedal.
On March 26, the Flyers' captain saw only two shifts of open ice - and one was in the third period when McDonagh was in the penalty box. They have only been marginally better in the two home games (combined 11 shifts away from McDonagh), when Berube has the option of last change.
"He's a really good player," Giroux said. "I've got a lot of respect for a player like him; he is talented. For us to get offense, we're going to have to work at it. We know it isn't going to be easy."
Berube's reason for attacking McDonagh is twofold: to wear him down and also see whether the Flyers can aggravate his sore left shoulder. McDonagh, 24, sat out the last five games of the regular season after injuring his shoulder.
"I think you need to just keep making him turn all night," Berube said, referring to McDonagh pivoting back and forth when the puck is chipped behind him. "You have to make him work. [He is] going to play 30 minutes. I think the 30 minutes he plays, they have to be hard minutes. It's not only being hit, we have to grind him out, make him stay out long shifts and battle. That kind of stuff goes a long way."
Berube believes McDonagh is so aggressive in breaking up plays at the blue line because he is such a talented skater and he can recover quickly.
"His anticipation that way is very good," Berube said. "He's got great gaps in the neutral zone. He doesn't give you very much room out there. He's not too worried if a guy beats him, because he knows he can catch him."
This series, like the Flyers' season, will hinge on Giroux' stick. Like anything else in a series, this game plan is not set in stone - and can change with one shift or one stroke on a dry-erase board. For right now, though, it will be a new way of life for the top line.
"You've got to recognize when you have a chance to make the play and beat him," Voracek said. "A lot of times, he plays that very tight gap. If you want to win the game, that's how you've got to play."

TRAVEL GEAR REVIEWS & ARTICLES
Buying the right travel gear is one of the most important steps when planning your first solo trip.
Especially because there’s nothing worse than realising that you’ve arrived completely underprepared or have packed WAY too much after arriving to your travel destination.
Some of the biggest downsides of overpacking (especially when backpacking) is that:
- Your luggage gets really heavy transforming it into a huge burden
- You don’t have much room to buy new things
- You have to pay extra for check-in luggage which can become very costly
But although overpacking has clear disadvantages, so does under-packing. That’s why it’s important to focus on packing only what you’ll truly NEED, rather than the “nice to haves”. I can help you with this.

The energy-efficient fifth-generation Core chips will enable fanless laptops that can be converted into tablets, and a handful of them are on the way.
Intel’s next-generation chip family, the Core M, will arrive in the real world starting next month as Acer, Asus, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo and Toshiba start shipping portable devices built around the power-efficient processor.
Kirk Skaugen, general manager of Intel’s personal computing division, announced the imminent arrival of the new designs during a speech Friday at the the IFA electronics show in Berlin. The premium chip, which consumes a dramatically low 4.5 watts — less than even new power-efficient light bulbs — is geared for a newer class of hybrid computing devices that can act either like tablets or PCs.
by Stephen Shankland September 5, 2014 10:04 AM PDT
“You can get the best of both worlds in one device,” Skaugen said, “but we think there’s been something missing from this category: a purpose-built processor for it.” The chip will enable long battery life — 8 hours of video watching — and machines that run cool enough to forsake noisy cooling fans.
Intel has a lot riding on the chip. The company dominates the PC market, but customers have shifted their gadget spending to smartphones and tablets that typically use processors based on designs from Intel rival ARM. The Core M’s power efficiency could help convince consumers that tablets are an extension of the PC market, since the hybrid “2-in-1” designs feature keyboards that can be detached or flipped out of the way.
If Intel succeeds in its ambitions, laptops could be trendy again. With tablet sales hitting a plateau, that idea isn’t as laughable now as it was a year or two ago.
Among the Core M-powered devices are very slim conventional laptops as well as convertible designs:
- Acer’s Aspire Switch 12, a 2-in-1 notebook with a 12.5-inch display, kickstand and detachable keyboard. The keyboard can be reattached on the back to make a smooth, large tablet.
- Asus’ Zenbook UX305, a 12.3mm-thick laptop with a 13-inch screen, which the company announced earlier this week at IFA.
- Dell Latitude 13 7000 Series laptops, which have a detachable keyboard.
- Two HP Envy x2 models, which have detachable keyboards and a 13.3-inch or 15.6-inch screen.
- Coming in later months will be the Asus Transformer T300 Chi, a 12.5-inch machine with detachable keyboard that’s just 7.3mm thick in tablet configuration.
“You have to ask yourself, ‘Why would I ever buy a tablet again?'” Skaugen said.
Well, presumably because Apple iPads, and tablets powered by Google’s Android operating system, have abundant software, while embracing Microsoft’s touch-capable Windows 8.1 isn’t always a top priority for programmers. But more affordable, capable hybrids could help Microsoft’s vision become a reality.
The Core M processor itself is the first to be built using Intel’s 14-nanometer manufacturing process, which has electronic elements measuring just 14 billionths of a meter across. To deal with the physics challenges of shrinking transistors to that scale, Intel moved to a three-dimensional “tri-gate” design with transistor components poking up out of the plane of the processor. The first move came with the current batch of processors, but the soon-to-arrive Core M will be the second-generation design.
The Core M is the first of the 14nm “Broadwell” family, the fifth generation of the Core-branded line.
Compared with the comparable fourth-generation Core chips, the Intel Core M is 50 percent faster at computing and 40 percent faster at graphics, the company said. But Intel prefers to compare the Core M’s performance to that of the chips in the many 4-year-old laptops still in use today. There, the Core M doubles computing power and improves graphics performance sevenfold, Intel said.
Intel will produce more-powerful Core i3, i5 and i7 versions for other computers that need more processing power or that don’t have such demand for lower power consumption.
“Core i3, i5 and i7 fifth-generation chips are in production and will be shipping in the millions in the fourth quarter,” Skaugen said.
