No matter what it’s called – Photorejuvenation, Fotofacial or Intense Pulsed Light laser – the IPL device emits a range of light waves that are then tuned and targeted at hemoglobin – the red blood cells in the blood vessels, or melanin – the brown pigment in freckles and age spots. The light beam passes through the skin and is absorbed by either hemoglobin or melanin resulting in damage to the vessel wall or fragmenting of melanin pigment. These tiny vessels and the melanin pigment are then absorbed by the body, rendering them less visible.
When done properly, almost always consists of a series of 3-5 treatments, every four to six weeks. The benefits of photorejuvenation treatments are achieved with little discomfort and minimal risk.
Intense Light Therapy for Sun Damage, Rosacea and Age Spots
Treatment time: 30-60 minutes • Recommended: 3-5 treatments • Frequency: 4-6 weeks • Downtime: Minimal
Intense Pulsed Light Laser FAQs
What is the IPL laser Used For?
Lightening and removing sun spots, age spots, and brown blotches on the face, neck, chest, hands and other areas of the body. IPL can also reduce the redness of and lightens rosacea. Rosacea is dilated blood vessels and “broken” blood vessels on the face, neck, and chest.
How Many Treatments to I Need?
Best results consist of a full series of 3-5 treatment spaced four weeks apart. Some improvement will be seen with each treatment, but it’s common for your response to be slightly different to each treatment. The more sun damage or redness you have, the more likely you are to need a full five treatments. Some cases of severe redness or brown spots require more than five treatments. Expect to see gradual clearing over time.
What Do IPL Treatments Feel Like?
There may be mild discomfort during the treatment, but most patients tolerate very easily. You might feel a slight “zing” during the treatment. As your skin begins to clear, the treatments usually become even more comfortable. We do offer topical numbing cream if preferred to make the treatment more comfortable.
How Long Does it Take?
Treatments usually take 30-90 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
What Should I Expect?
A cool gel is then placed on the skin being treated followed by goggles to cover your eyes from the bright light. The cool glass surface of the handpiece is gently applied to your skin and pulses of light flash. You may feel a very slight sting, like the snapping of a small rubber band. The treatment is quick and is generally very tolerable.
When Will I See Results?
You feel tightening immediately, however, results will improve dramatically over the next few months as new collagen is formed. It is normal for spots to become darker post-treatment. These spots will either lighten or flake off completely within two weeks. Do not pick or peel flaking, instead, let it heal naturally.
Is There Any Downtime?
There is little to no downtime, however, you should expect to stay out of the sun and wear sunscreen 4 weeks before and 4 weeks after the treatment. You may have redness, typical to a sunburn, for 24-48 hours and darkening of freckles/sun spots. These spots will lighten or flake off within the next couple weeks. Makeup can be worn immediately post-treatment.

An argument under the Christmas tree leads to an accidental massive head-bop for six young children. Where they end up and how they get back is the stuff of legend. Or at least of a really good Christmas story.
Nine-year-old Hailey suddenly finds herself in a strange, snow-covered land. She is soon joined by her cousins Isaiah and Bubba. Together they go in search of the rest of the group, for they are certain that the rest of them wound up in the same place.
Sure enough, they find five-year Arhiana in the lower branches of a huge tree that is ablaze with many-colored lights. Moving further on, they rescue three-year-old Hayden from the conductor cabin of a train that is running circles around a pleasant-looking little town.
Things get even stranger when they cross the bridge into the town and find it filled with people dressed in 19th-century garb. When they find two-year-old Harper, what happens next shocks the two oldest of the group beyond their wildest dreams.

This was a sweet story, with very likeable characters. And as good stories should, it had a lesson to convey. “From the mouths of babes” – that phrase has great significance here. The reader is easily drawn into the predicament surrounding the band of unwilling adventurers, and will love the ending. I have read this story a couple of times, and still get chills at the end.

Correct Answer: True
It’s true once Google Analytics processes data, it’s stored in a database where it can’t be modified.
Google gives access to control the data retention. It basically gives you the ability to set the amount of time before user-level and event-level data stored by Google Analytics is automatically deleted from Analytics servers.

This guide will explain what KPI Analytics is and how you can use it to look at both Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and the metrics that go along with them. We’ll explain about why companies do KPI analysis and what benefits it brings. We’ll also discuss about the most effective KPI analysis strategies and how to use them in your company.
What does KPI Analytics mean?
The process of analysing Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), including the data and metrics used in KPI formulas, is called KPI Analytics. When these metrics are analysed, they explain differences in graphs and charts that are usually used to show KPIs. Senior managers and data analysts use KPI analytics to learn more about processes, make them more efficient, and find new opportunities.
KPI analytics is an important part of keeping an eye on the health of a business or project, and it was mostly used to find out why things went wrong. But now, businesses use KPI analysis to make better products for their customers, reduce risk, and make more money. When done right, analysis can help you make much better decisions than KPIs alone.
Why do businesses analyze KPIs?
Companies do much better than their competitors when they use KPIs and look at the data. In particular, businesses use KPI Analytics with three main goals in mind:
- To find new business opportunities. KPIs are usually used by companies to track their progress toward a specific goal. In many cases, this means keeping track of things like how well they’re meeting sales goals. But companies now have many data points to use when analysing performance. They will use the metrics that feed the revenue KPIs to look for sales niches that could be taken advantage of by marketing or sales promotions.
- To look into the data and find ways to work more efficiently. They use this information to figure out where more work needs to be done. Companies will then use this information to make plans for their growth in the future.
- To help improve the effectiveness of operations. By looking for things that are going well and things that need work, they can make better use of their resources and keep up high levels of performance.
What are the advantages of using KPI Analytics?
KPI Analystics has a wide range of benefits, some of which are as simple as making sure that performance is on track. Or, they can be as complex as digging deep into data to find small changes in outputs that, if tweaked, could slightly improve performance. But when a company uses a KPI Analytics strategy, they usually get the most out of five main areas.
- Mitigating Risk. By using KPI analytics, companies can better measure and calculate where they stand in terms of risk. These steps help to reduce risks before they become problems or losses.
- Getting services or products to customers or making changes to them. Almost every business’s success comes from being able to give customers what they want. So, it’s important to find out from customers which products or services work and which ones need to be changed or made better. These insights help you understand how customers think and what the market wants, which drives your strategy for developing new products.
- Getting the customer experience right and making it better. By looking at customer interactions from the points of view of “What Happened,” “What Might Happen,” and “What Might Be Done,” companies can give customers a more consistent and personalised experience and make their operations run more smoothly.
- Making better decisions. Companies use KPI Analytics to make decisions faster and based on facts. For example, they use KPI data to drive product development to match consumer markets, and they use data to personalise services. For instance, KPI reporting and dashboards can help find connections between data, giving managers facts on which to base decisions that would not be possible otherwise.
- Better financial knowledge, reduced corners, and increased profits. Using balance sheets, cash flow, and budgets to do a detailed analysis can help a business figure out how healthy its finances are. By digging deeper into expenses like the cost of materials, you can cut costs and make more money.
How to analyze KPIs, metrics, and measures
There are two main types of KPIs that can be looked at. With the reactive method, data is only looked at when there is a problem. It doesn’t help the company do better. Instead, it solves problems as they come up.
The proactive approach is when a company regularly looks at its data to find problems that could happen and fixes them before they do. Both ways can be broken down into 5 main steps:
- Setout your goals. Before you start to analyse, you’ll need to set clear goals that cover the problem or issue you’re trying to solve. This will then give you a plan for the information you will need.
- Define your measurements. For example, if you need to figure out how much each agent is selling, you might want to dig into the data to find out how long each sales cycle takes for each rep. Then, compare each rep’s sales to the average of the whole team.
- Collect your data. The goals set out in step 1 should be taken into account when defining and collecting data. Most of the relevant information will already be in apps, databases, and spreadsheets. Quality is king here. It’s worth the time to check data for accuracy and clean it up where necessary.
- Analyze your data. Dashboards and reports are great ways to start digging into your data with KPI Analytics tools. Most of them will already have some automation and templates to help you get started. Some of them will already talk about the many ways you can look at your strategy. Once you have a method, you can use an app or do it on your own.
- Visualize your KPIs and the results. Once you have the data, the method, and the goal, you can start putting together the cool-looking stuff. Most of the time, this is done with the help of KPI dashboards, which turn complicated data into visuals that are easy for all stakeholders to understand. On the other hand, KPI reports are often used to summarise the data in a table format.
KPI Analytics Software's most important features
Using KPI Analytics software is good for businesses, their stakeholders, and their employees. But what are the most important things to look for in KPI Analytics software?
The most important thing is to keep things simple. Being intuitive and flexible will get you up and running faster. A good KPI analytics app should be flexible enough to let the user make different charts or reports for different teams or departments.
The information should be easy to separate, store, and share in a safe way. The data will be put into a format that can be analysed with other related data by a wide range of automated data sources. With a flexible KPI Dashboard, you can see how your data is being analysed, which makes it easy to share insights with colleagues.
When KPIs are looked at on a regular basis, organisations can find out what is working and what needs to be changed. Now, it’s easier than ever to get this data because both data integration providers and analysis tools are making this process easier to automate.
Because of these improvements, analysing KPIs is no longer just for big companies. Now, any business can do it. Companies can now use their data to improve their processes, reduce risk, and make better choices.
Set your goals first, and then let KPI software like DoerHRM take care of managing and displaying your analysis. Try it out for free to discover how easy it is to monitor KPIs using dashboards and reports.

The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) presents a proposal submitted by five EU Member States to ban the production and use of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) [1,2]. It proposes to ban all PFASs with transition periods ranging from 18 months to 12 years, depending on the availability and suitability of PFAS alternatives. If adopted by the EU Commission, alternatives would have to be found for approximately 10,000 applications, which would be a first, as previous restrictions only applied to individual substances.
What Are PFASs? Why Should They Be Banned?
PFASs are thousands of substances that are water-, dirt-, and/or oil-repellent, making them useful components in countless everyday products such as waterproof clothing, coated pans, cosmetics, fast food packaging, or flame retardants. In recent decades, concerns have arisen about the use of PFAS-containing products. They are hardly degraded in the natural environment and, therefore, accumulate in water and soil  and are transported over large distances by air. High concentrations have been found, for example, in Arctic regions with seemingly pure air in seals and polar bears.
Perfluorocarboxylic acids and perfluorosulfonic acids are among the most stable chemicals we know. Other PFASs are transformed into these. Many PFASs bioaccumulate, meaning they accumulate in food chains, resulting in high concentrations in animals starting from low concentrations in the environment.Because PFASs have very long biological half-lives, for example, a molecule of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) remains in the human body for about a year after it is taken up.
PFASs negatively affect many important life processes, including the immune system and endocrine system. For some compounds, it has been proven that they can have health effects even at low concentrations.
Current Situation and Outlook
So far, there are only restrictions for individual PFASs. For example, the use of PFOA is banned in the EU and the use of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) is only allowed for a few applications in the EU. The risks from the production and use of most PFASs have not yet been controlled.
Now, ECHA’s scientific committees for Risk Assessment (RAC) and for Socio-Economic Analysis (SEAC) will check that the proposal meets the legal requirements of REACH in their meetings in March 2023 . If it does, the committees will begin their scientific evaluation of the proposal. A six-month consultation is planned to start on March 22, 2023. Subsequently, the EU Commission decides together with the EU Member States on legally binding production and usage restrictions.
So far, it has not been communicated what will be seen as substitution strategies for the application areas of PFASs.

Roland Emmerich's Low Budget Sci-Fi Project Shut Down
There won't be a movie made in the vein of "Cloverfield" from Roland Emmerich in foreseeable future. Not long after it was reported that the "2012 (2009)" helmer developed an alien invasion movie "The Zone" which would be presented in found footage, the project is shut down.
The Hollywood Reporter (THR) first breaks the news but there is no elaborate explanation regarding the cancellation. The director's camp simply releases a comment saying, "This is not a project (Emmerich) is pursuing at this time."
The sci-fi movie was said to be made with only $5 million budget, far below Emmerich's latest apocalyptic movie "2012" which cost an estimated $200 million. Additionally, production was well in to the rehearsal stage with shooting due to start next week.
THR then suggests two possible factors in the case. First, the found-footage trope is becoming overplayed, or "The Zone" would have been released scant weeks after another found-footage sci-fi movie, "Apollo 18", which is targeted for May 2011 release.

"Blow the trumpet in Zion and sound the alarm on my Holy Mountain. Get Ready!!! My people will confound the wise of this world. Some men of the world will get angry. Fear Not, for what can man do to you? What can man do to Christ? I am going to protect my people. I am a shield about them. Fear Not! Be Bold and Very Courageous for I live within you. Beating the last enemy is a 'given' for some. And once it starts, it will never end. Those who don't know Me will keep dying off like flies, yet My Sons shall keep on living and living and living.

Charlie Munger’s Daily Journal cut its stake in Alibaba by 50% in the first quarter
Daily Jornal, owned by legendary billionaire Charlie Munger, has cut its stake in Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba by nearly 50%.
According to a regulatory filing on Monday, Daily Journal owned 300,000 American depositary shares (ADRs) in Alibaba at the end of March, down from 602,060 at the end of the previous year.
The Los Angeles-based company is known for its collection of papers and for selling software to customers that include justice agencies and courts. The business also holds a collection of stocks in addition to its operating businesses.
As a longtime China bull, Munger speaks highly of the Chinese government and is confident about Alibaba’s growth.
In an interview with CNBC in last June, he express hope that the US financial regulators will be more like those of China, and he praised China’s response to the current health crisis. The billionaire said that while “our own wonderful free enterprise economy is letting all these crazy people go to this gross excess,” the Chinese “step in preemptively to stop speculation.”
In the first quarter 2021, Daily Journal initiated a position in Alibaba by buying 165,320 Alibaba ADRs and kept buying more during a time of weakness. At the end of 2021, the company held 602,060 shares of Alibaba, up from 302,060 shares as of September 30. The purchase price ranged from $111.96 to $177.7, with an estimated average price of $145.1.
The NYSE-listed Chinese company closed at $101.55 today, down 1.91%.
Daily Journal’s sell-off also coincided with the outflow of foreign money from China. Citing market data, Nikkei Asia reported that in the January-March period, foreign investors sold a net 38.4 billion yuan ($6.04 billion) of Chinese stocks and bonds, one of the highest such quarterly figures on record.
“Outflows from China on the scale and intensity we are seeing are unprecedented,” the Institute of International Finance said in a report published in late March. “Russia’s invasion of Ukraine may be pushing global markets to look at China in a new light.” It said the latest capital flight is “very unusual” as other emerging economies are not seeing similar outflows.
A resurgence in coronavirus cases in China, with Shanghai imposing strict lockdown measures, could fuel further flight of foreign investment from the country, said Nikkei Asia.

In the foregoing pages we have presented specimens illustrating in detail the several stages of healing bone in amputation stumps.
Within five or six days from the date of operation (W. R. U. 262) the cut surface is rarefied by increased vascularity so fine that, though it is obvious in the roentgenogram, it cannot be seen on the specimen except under magnification. This erosion gradually obliterates the saw cuts and rounds off the margins of the cut face.
By the lapse of eleven days after operation (W. R. U. 864) the erosion, unequally progressive and still permitting evidence of the saw cuts, is plainly most active in those areas of the cut shaft which are thinnest and least injured.
After thirteen days (W. R. U. 319) the saw cuts may be entirely obliterated and callus, both periosteal and endosteal, well developed.
If the amputation has taken place through cancellous tissue and not through the marrow cavity, the lapse of fifteen days (W. R. U. 1019) is enough to permit fair healing with even the commencing appearance of waxy textured bone on the face of the stump.
But if the marrow cavity be opened, seventeen days later the canal is still quite patent, though narrowed somewhat by the development of concentric rings from the endosteal callus (W. R. U. 1585).
After several weeks the endosteal callus has formed an imperfect cap for the medullary cavity and the vascular channels on the eroded cut face are narrowed (W. R. U. 952). This is soon followed by the closure of the vascular channels and by a wax-like transformation of the texture of the new bone (W. R. U. 1519, W. R. U. 1217).

Does the ECU actually count the teeth? It is possible, (and common on
other ECUs) to guess at TDC after making the reference signal by knowing
how fast the engine is turning. The ECU merely trips a timer, and fires
the plug at the prescribed point.

I fully agree with changing the timing maps, since you would be chopping
off 2.6 degrees of range from your knock sensor control.
Do you have the ability to change the timing maps? Where are they on the
chip? I have spare chips....

In the business of marketing and public relations, Alima left her own mark after a career that spanned more than 18 years. The late Alima acquired a Postgraduate Diploma in Marketing from Kingston University, Surrey, as well as a Bachelor of Arts degree in French and Sociology from the University of London.
Before she ventured into Sesema, she had channelled her passion into MMD Marketing Communications and Anderson Soames, two UK-based PR agencies. She also worked in Consumer Product Management for AT&T in the United States, and in Corporate Communications for Guaranty Trust Bank in Nigeria. She was also an educationist and the host of TalkBiz on Smooth 98.1 FM.

I’m finding it hard to carve out quiet time for writing and other things that require uninterrupted focus since Noah is here with me on these long Summer days. Of course my thoughts continue and I miss the outlet of writing that allows me to weave them together into a more coherent form. Noah is sleeping in this morning which is very unusual so I’ve meandered down to the computer after having my coffee and Bible Study to at least touch base with all of you who are kind enough to take the time to read my thoughts.
One of the things I’ve come to look forward to in Spring is the sweet birds who consistently find their way to our front porch to build their nests and hatch their young. The first year they came was the year Heather left our nest and ventured out on her own. My sorrow and sadness was great and I found soothing comfort from having the opportunity to watch in nature the process that was unfolding in my own life.
I would sit outside on those long hot days and watch as the diligent Mom and Dad birds fretted over their nest. So much work, so much time, so much preparation and care…I would cry silent tears and remember the days, months, and years of my own tender care and loving watchfulness that had brought me to the place I then found myself.
I truly loved watching those bird parents bring food, piece by piece, to their noisy little ones after they hatched out and began to poke their little heads up with open mouths searching for nourishment. I thought, “even those tiny creates are demanding from birth as our own little ones come screaming into the pictures that are our lives.”
So much activity ensued in the days following their emergence. I found myself worrying about the heat and the Mom and Dad bird, but everything that was needed was provided by those unseen hands that had provided all that I had needed in the years I spent raising Heather. Far too quickly according to my timetable, I noticed Mom and Dad bird were demonstrating new behaviors and coaxing their little ones to do the same.
In a flurry of bird songs and the fluttering of wings, the little ones began to expand their wings. Mom and Dad seemingly took turns leading the way from the safety of the nest to the cluster of trees a few feet from the porch until finally one of the strongest and bravest of the brood made her way to the edge of the nest and with what looked like great effort leapt from the perch. The air as a partner aided her tiny wings as she flew haphazardly toward her new destination.
The last one didn’t leave the nest for three more days and would frantically chirp from the perch as the others, already gracefully soaring, encouraged her from the nearby trees. Mom and Dad continued to light for brief moments on the edge of the nest and would encourage again with song and flight to the one who hesitated in fear until that exciting moment when the small one took her flight.
I couldn’t help but smile and cry when I saw the hard work of those diligent parents coming to fruition in the lives of their young. Every year since then, new families of birds have made our home, our front porch, their sanctuary for their precious journey together in continuing the cycle of life. It never fails to inspire me and to remind me of the journey I’ve already taken and the one that yet lies ahead for me and my boy.
May we all be encouraged as we reflect on the gift of life and find our way in fulfilling our purpose in the lives of our children.

What could be better on an windy, rainy autumn weekend then hot toasted muffins. Traditionally muffins are pulled apart without cutting then lightly toasted and buttered yummy!
Muffins work well with both savoury or sweet toppings such as jam or honey.
- 450g/ 1 lb/ 3 1/3 cups Strong white flour
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Sugar
- 1 tsp fast-action dried yeast
- 25g/ 1oz Melted butter
- 300g/ 10oz/ 1 1/3 cups warm water
- 1 tablespoon Semolina or ground rice or cornmeal (for dusting)
Add the melted butter and water and mix to a soft dough.
Knead the dough for 5 minutes and cover with oiled cling-film and leave to stand for approx 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
Knead the dough for a couple of minutes on a lightly floured surface and divide into 12 balls.
Place on a baking tray dusted with half the semolina or ground rice or cornmeal (only use 1 not all 3) sprinkle remain over the top of the muffin, lightly press the muffin to slightly flatten them to roughly 1.5cm/ 3/4 inches thick, cover with a clean tea towel and leave until well risen approx.30 minutes.
Heat a heavy-based frying pan/ flat griddle to a medium heat (not to hot or the base of the muffins will burn). You may find if the muffins stick you can spray your pan with a little oil. Depending on the size of our pan place 3 to 4 muffins (cooking in batches) and cook gently for about 6 - 8 minutes or until they puff up and the bottom is golden brown, turn over and cook the other size for approx. 4 - 6 minutes. I find to make sure the centre is fully cooked I pre-heat my oven to a medium heat then the muffins are cooked I pop them on a baking tray in the oven for a approx 3 - 5 minutes on a medium heat.
Remove from oven, leave to cool.
Un-toasted muffins can stored in an airtight tin/ container for about two days.
Servicing suggestions - split the muffin in half and butter for hot muffin toast lightly for a few minutes before serving.
Great for as a daytime treat buttered with a little jam and a hot cup of tea.
Make a tasty breakfast with a poached egg and crispy bacon (or veggie crispy bacon)


Late-Time Observations of SN 2006gy: Still Going Strong
Published Web Locationhttps://doi.org/10.1086/590141
Owing to its extremely high luminosity and long duration, supernova (SN) 2006gy radiated more energy in visual light than any other known SN. Two hypotheses to explain its high luminosity at early times - that it was powered by shock interaction with circumstellar material (CSM) as implied by its Type IIn spectrum, or that it was fueled by radioactive decay from a large mass of 56Ni synthesized in a pair-instability SN-predicted different late-time properties. Here we present observations of SN 2006gy obtained more than a year after discovery. We were unable to detect it at visual wavelengths, but clear near-infrared (IR) K′ and H-band detections show that it is still at least as luminous as the peak of a normal Type II SN. We also present spectra giving an upper limit to the late-time Ha luminosity of ≲S10 39 erg s-1. Based on the weak late-time Ha, X-ray, and radio emission, combined with the difficulty of explaining the shift to IR wavelengths, we can rule out ongoing CSM interaction as the primary late-time power source of SN 2006gy. Instead, we propose that the evolution of SN 2006gy is consistent with one of two possible scenarios: (1)apairinstability SN plus modest CSM interaction, where the radioactive decay luminosity shifts to the IR because of dust formation; or (2) an IR echo, where radiation emitted during peak luminosity heats a pre-existing dust shell at radii near 1 light year, requiring the progenitor star to have ejected another shell of ∼10 M ⊙ about 1500 yr before the SN. © 2008.

Many children have not because they don’t even realize the importance of care planning, that is until an emergency occurs and they’re swept into the middle of the crises. It is unfortunate, but sometimes it takes a personal experience to make one accept or appreciate the need to plan ahead. On the other hand, some parents don’t want to have the discussion. If you find yourself in this place, join my weekly radio broadcast on Sundays 10-11am on 630 KHOW called Parenting Your Parents at www.parentingyourparentsradio.com Here we talk about opening up the conversation with your parents about caregiving and related issues.

The concentration of radioactive substances excluding tritium.
The sum of the ratios of the concentration of each radionuclide to the regulatory concentration:
*Nuclides that are voluntarily checked to ensure that they are not significantly present were confirmed not to be significantly present for all target nuclides.
Tritium concentration:13×104 Bq/L
Confirmed to be less than 1 million Bq/L
- ※ALPS treated water with high tritium concentration is to be discharged at a later stage of the discharge period by considering the natural decay of radioactivity over time. This is indicated as the upper limit of 1 million Bq/L in the implementation plan (to be discharged starting from the water with lower tritium concentration)
- ※Pre-dilution ratio of tritium concentration to the regulatory concentration limit(60,000Bq/L) is 2.17 , but the regulatory standard is met by diluting the tritium with large amount of seawater when discharging into the sea. (When diluted 740 times with seawater, ratio of tritium concentration to the regulatory concentration limit drops to 0.0029)
Measurement results from external agencies designated by TEPCO (Kaken)
▶Tritium concentration: One hundred and thirty thousand Bq/L
▶The sum of the ratios of the concentration of each radionuclide to the regulatory concentration excluding tritium: 0.31

Psychological tips for winning big at Poker
One of the hallmarks of a great poker player is possessing a mental toughness to deal with the ups and downs of the game under extreme pressure. But who said you need to read heavy books to beat your opponents in poker tournaments? Presenting to you simple yet effective psychological poker tips to help you emerge as the shark in your river:
Observe other players before seeing your cards
As soon as we are dealt with the cards, we go restless to peep into the hand we have received. But psychology says that it is more useful to observe others while they see their cards. A smile or a grimace on their face can hint a lot about the cards they are holding.
Always keep your ears open
Even if you have missed observing others, always keep your ears open. See if players are sighing or grunting- either of them will signal you what position they are in and help you in deciding on your next moves.
Spot nervousness on other players
If you see any of your opponents suddenly getting nervous, it is likely that they have got a very good hand. Most of the players get nervous when they face a chance of winning by a wide margin.
Calculate the duration of staring at cards
On the other hand, people stare long if they have weak cards. They calculate the possibilities of winning and become extremely conscious about their upcoming moves. But if they are staring at you, it means they have a strong card and will soon bluff.
Stay observant even after you fold
Even if you are not a part of the play, continue observing your opponents. This will help you more in following all of the points mentioned above as you will not be under pressure to win the game.

A Lack of Resolved Near-Infrared Polarization Across the Face of M51
Access full-text files
The galaxy M51 was observed using the Mimir instrument on the Perkins Telescope to constrain the resolved H-band (1.6 mu m) polarization across the galaxy. These observations place an upper limit of P-H < 0.05% on the H-band polarization across the face of M51, at 0.6 arcsec pixel sampling. Even with smoothing to coarser angular resolutions, to reduce polarization uncertainty, the H-band polarization remains undetected. The polarization upper limit at H band, when combined with previous resolved optical polarimetry, rules out a Serkowski-like polarization dependence on wavelength. Other polarization mechanisms cannot account for the observed polarization ratio (P-H/P-VRI less than or similar to 0.05) across the face of M51.


PARSHL follows the amplitude, frequency, and phase3 of the most prominent peaks over time in a series of spectra, computed using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The synthesis part of the program uses the analysis parameters, or their modification, to generate a sinewave for every peak track found.
The steps carried out by PARSHL are as follows:
1. Compute the STFT using the frame size, window type, FFT size, and hop size specified by the user.
2. Compute the squared magnitude spectrum in dB ( ).
3. Find the bin numbers (frequency samples) of the spectral peaks. Parabolic interpolation is used to refine the peak location estimates. Three spectral samples (in dB) consisting of the local peak in the FFT and the samples on either side of it suffice to determine the parabola used.
4. The magnitude and phase of each peak is calculated from the maximum of the parabola determined in the previous step. The parabola is evaluated separately on the real and imaginary parts of the spectrum to provide a complex interpolated spectrum value.
5. Each peak is assigned to a frequency track by matching the peaks of the previous frame with the current one. These tracks can be ``started up,'' ``turned-off'' or ``turned-on'' at any frame by ramping in amplitude from or toward 0.
6. Arbitrary modifications can be applied to the analysis parameters before resynthesis.
7. If additive synthesis is requested, a sinewave is generated for each frequency track, and all are summed into an output buffer. The instantaneous amplitude, frequency, and phase for each sinewave are calculated by interpolating the values from frame to frame. The length of the output buffer is equal to the hop size which is typically some fraction of the window length .
8. Repeat from step 1, advancing samples each iteration until the end of the input sound is reached.

This paper presents a new three-phase inverter based on the Cuk converter. The main feature of the proposed topology is that the energy storage elements, such as inductors and capacitors, can be reduced in order to improve the reliability, and reduce size and total cost. The buck-boost inherent characteristic of the Cuk converter, depending on the time-varying duty ratio, provides flexibility for standalone and grid connected applications when the required output ac voltage is lower or greater than the dc side voltage. This property is not found in the conventional current source inverter when the dc input current is always greater than the ac output or in the conventional voltage source inverter as the output ac voltage is always lower than the dc input. The proposed system allows much smaller, more reliable nonelectrolytic capacitors to be used for energy source filtering. The new three-phase inverter is convenient for photovoltaic applications where continuous input currents are required for maximum power point tracking operation. Average large and small signal models are used to study the Cuk converter's nonlinear operation. The basic structure, control design, and MATLAB/SIMULINK results are presented. Practical results substantiate the design flexibility of the Cuk-based topology controlled by a TMSF280335 DSP.

Double national award success for PR firm
Two prestigious national Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) Excellence Awards, are on their way to Lancashire, after Blackpool PR firm, Catapult PR, added these to the PR Moment Award North it has also won in June 2021.
Catapult has won the national CIPR Excellence Award for the Best Corporate and Business Communications Campaign. Its managing director, Jane Hunt, has also become a two-times winner of the national CIPR Excellence Best Independent PR Practitioner Award. The high-achieving Lancashire PR agency narrowly missed out on a third CIPR Excellence Award for a travel PR campaign.
The CIPR judging panel particularly noted the innovative approach to business promotion that Catapult PR adopted and its diligence in using research to identify a little-known Government recommendation with regard to environmental sustainability and then building a highly strategic campaign around it.
For the Independent PR Practitioner Award, they highlighted the successful business plan and strategies adopted by Catapult PR, its successes for clients and the clarity of vision that Jane Hunt has with regard to her agency.
That clarity has enabled Catapult PR, with offices in Blackpool and Poulton-le-Fylde, to achieve phenomenal success in its 23 years, working with clients across many different sectors, with budgets of sizes and with companies ranging from start-ups to global insurance giants.
The two new national accolades make it a tally of three awards for Catapult PR in June 2021 alone. The consultancy also won a PRMoment Award for the Best Culture, Media, Sport or Travel Marketing Communications Campaign in the Northern PR Moment Awards, held earlier in the month.
At these awards, speaking on behalf of the judges, Claire Fowler, head of communications at Hays, noted that, "This campaign showed the power of a true PR approach, reverting to creative, timely media hooks in difficult circumstances."
Jane Hunt says, “There’s a big buzz to winning any award and already having three awards in 2021, taking our total to 44, is just amazing. The CIPR Excellence Awards are our Holy Grail, however, as they are not only national but extremely hard to win, especially for an agency of our size, working with budgets of the level that our clients have at their disposal. It’s incredible that we have again secured two of these top awards, demonstrating that big spend is not as important as creativity and a compelling strategy.”
Catapult PR has another award scooping opportunity for June, being shortlisted for two awards in the PRCA DARE Awards North 2021. The results of those awards will be revealed on June 29.
To date, Catapult PR has won a stunning 44 awards since its establishment in March 1998.

NOTES ON ALL GENERAL MOTORS HARNESS SYSTEMS We have done a great deal of research on General Motors wiring harnesses in order to provide you with the most authentic wiring systems possible. While doing this research, we had the opportunity to study original harness blueprints and specifications for some General Motors products. All of the data we examined specified that the wire was to have a natural cotton base color (a light tan) braided over the rubber insulation, with tracer colors woven in for wire identification. The tracer colors would consist of a single thread parallel tracer or two single thread crossing tracers, as specified on the harness blueprints. After the cotton braid was applied to the wire it was to be given a protective coating consisting of a heat, oil and water resistant varnish. This protective coating would color with age and cause the original wire to appear dark yellow, orange, or brown. All the wire we use for General Motors vehicles conforms to the original color codes as specified by the manufacturer. One note on our General Motors harness systems: At this time we cannot supply the original type GM twist connectors, the rear body plug, or the turn signal switch plug. We do provide substitute connectors...

|"Picasso's Last Words (Drink to Me)"|
|Song by Paul McCartney and Wings|
|from the album Band on the Run|
|Released||7 December 1973|
|Studio||EMI Studios, Lagos, Nigeria|
|Band on the Run track listing|
"Picasso's Last Words (Drink to Me)" is a song by the British–American rock band Paul McCartney and Wings, released on their 1973 album Band on the Run. The longest track on the album, it was not released as a single. The song includes interpolations of "Jet" and "Mrs. Vandebilt," the second and fourth tracks on the album, respectively. Wings band member Denny Laine covered "Picasso's Last Words (Drink to Me)" in 2007 on his album Performs the Hits of Wings. An abbreviated performance of the song appears on the live album Wings over America.
In an interview on British TV channel ITV1 for the program Wings: Band on the Run, to promote the November 2010 2xCD/2xDVD rerelease of the original album, McCartney says he was on vacation in Montego Bay, Jamaica where he "snuck" onto the set of the film Papillon where he met Dustin Hoffman and Steve McQueen. After a dinner with Hoffman, with McCartney playing around on guitar, Hoffman did not believe that McCartney could write a song "about anything", so Hoffman pulled out a magazine where they saw the story of the death of Pablo Picasso and his famous last words, "Drink to me, drink to my health. You know I can't drink anymore." McCartney created a demo of the song and lyrics on the spot, prompting Hoffman to exclaim to his wife: "…look, he's doing it… he's doing it!"
While recording Band on the Run in Lagos, Nigeria, Wings were invited to former Cream drummer Ginger Baker's ARC Studios in the nearby suburb of Ikeja. While Baker insisted to McCartney that they should record the entire album there, McCartney was reluctant and agreed he would spend one day there. "Picasso's Last Words" was recorded during that time and Baker contributed by playing a tin can full of gravel.
