Experience better results for increased physical function and joint mobility with NutraMedix BioSOLVE CurcuminTM.
Unless a turmeric supplement is carefully formulated, the body can only absorb a fraction of the active compounds— but not anymore. The excellent bioavailability of NutraMedix BioSOLVE CurcuminTM through proprietary BioSOLVE technology ensures solubility, bioavailability, and in vivo performance that is not dependent on any surfactants or emulsifying agents like other brands. With NutraMedix Curcumin, the research-supported benefits of turmeric can be realized by people who include this supplement as a part of their daily wellness practice, offering a higher-strength absorption at lower doses.
A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE BACK YOUR HEALTH:
Support your lifestyle in the healthiest way possible! With this potent antioxidant and healthy inflammatory response support supplement, you can keep on with the things you love the most without discomfort and support your overall health while you do it.
High strength, dispersible, and bioavailable, curcumin has been used for thousands of years supporting healthy joints and more.
Curcumin is the active polyphenol in turmeric (Curcuma longa). An ancient spice related to ginger, it is often called the ‘Golden Spice’ due to its vibrant yellow-orange color. As a polyphenol, curcumin’s plant-based antioxidant properties have been widely studied for its role in helping to maintain inflammation and continues to gain recognition in modern medicine.
Indigenous to Southeastern and Eastern Asia, NutraMedix’s curcumin is designed for maximum absorption through a proprietary method, ensuring solubility and bioavailability unlike any other curcumin supplement on the market today. As a natural extract, the drawbacks in solubility and bioavailability are well-known, but through a developed method, NutraMedix has created a platform to convert the poorly soluble curcumin to 95% soluble and dispersible curcumin powder, leading to rapid dispersibility followed by enhanced therapeutic benefits including antioxidant support, inflammatory response support, joint and muscle support (musculoskeletal), liver and heart function support, immune support, gastric support, healthy weight management, and neurological support.

Plans are being drawn up for a major commercial, residential and leisure development in the capital, to be called New Tripoli. The mega project will encompass six separate zones, covering 2.2 million square metres along Tripoli’s coastline, four kilometres from the city centre.Designed to revitalise the city, the development is set to be one of the most ambitious projects ever carried out in the country. The conceptual masterplan drawn up by private developer Dubai Reality International (DRI),calls for the construction of office facilities, commercial, retail and lake districts, leisure and entertainment areas and a major golfing complex. Major infrastructure work will also be required, including improvements and expansion of Tripoli’s road, water, sanitation, telecommunications and power infrastructure. DRI has already received proposals from international firms for the project management consultancy (PMC) contract, with an award due by year-end. Requests for proposals (RFPs) for the masterplanning architecture, coastal modelling, topographical survey and geotechnical consultancy contracts are expected to be released soon. The project schedule envisages a fast-track approach. Selection of contractors for the dredging and landfilling packages is expected by the second quarter of 2005. Awards for most of the infrastructure packages, including the main construction contracts, are due to be made later the same year. The project is scheduled for completion by mid-2008. Libya is keen to attract international investment after years of isolation. The New Tripoli development is just one of a number of tourist and infrastructure projects planned following the lifting of sanctions (MEED 29:10:04, Cover Story).


Consumer Reports (CR) has published its annual vehicle reliability survey. The survey ranked cars, trucks, and SUV models on 17 potential trouble spots including engine, power equipment, body, and electronics. The cumulative score of a company’s models determines the brand’s overall reliability ranking for 2021 models.
The NX300 is a crossover vehicle that has been rated at an 88 percent out of 100 for reliability. 2019 Toyota RAV4. The 2019 Toyota RAV4 has forged ahead of some of the most reliable SUVs for the 2019 model year to land in sixth place. It has achieved a top score of 90 percent out of 100 in terms of reliability.
- Ditto the 2016 BMW X3. In the VDS’s Compact Premium SUV segment, this popular crossover earned the highest score for dependability based on owner feedback, beating the Porsche Macan and Infiniti QX50 in the process.
- The Chevrolet Equinoxhas a history of reliability making it a smart choice for those in need of a dependable crossover. It has an affordable starting price of $23,100 and includes a 7-inch color touchscreen, OnStar and 4G LTE with a 3-month trial subscription, daytime running lights, and deluxe front bucket seats as standard features.
The CR survey, which includes over 300,000 vehicles, determines predicted reliability for new vehicles on a 0-100 scale, with the average vehicle being between 41 and 60 points. The fewer the problems, the higher the score. Due to insufficient data, or brands not having enough vehicles, some brands and models were not included in these ratings.
The Most Reliable 2021 SUV
In the survey findings, the Lexus NX. The NX is the company’s entry-level compact crossover with a starting price under $40,000.
The NX blends interior comforts, with lots of standard safety features, and great reliability. It was just one model that helped push Lexus to 3rd overall in brand reliability ratings.
Overall, the top 5 most reliable SUVs in the reliability survey were the NX, Buick Encore, Lexus GX, Honda HR-V, and Hyundai Kona. These models cover the subcompact, compact, luxury, and full-size SUV categories.
The Least Reliable 2021 SUV
The CR survey found that the Ford Explorer was the least reliable SUV. The Explorer was plagued with problems in its engines, electronics, power equipment, body, and transmission. It scored a paltry 1 out of 100 in the reliability survey.
The Explorer, which was redesigned for 2020, was plagued by a rushed production. More specifically, this caused problems with faulty seats, digital displays with buggy software, and loose wiring harnesses.
“The Ford Explorer, redesigned for 2020, is one of the lowest scoring models from any manufacturer — domestic or foreign — this year” – Consumer Reports
The redesigned Ford Escape compact crossover didn’t perform much better. And the subcompact Ecosport crossover was another downer. Overall as a company, Ford did poorly finishing in the bottom 5.
The other lease reliable SUVs based on the survey were the Subaru Ascent, Volkswagen Atlas, Jeep Compass, and Volvo XC90.
The Least Reliable Car Brand
Ford’s luxury brand, Lincoln, finished as the lowest-rated brand for reliability overall. However, there were other manufacturers they didn’t have enough data to rank including Fiat, Chrysler, Alfa Romeo, Jaguar, Mitsubishi, and Land Rover.
Lincolns were plagued with similar problems as described with the Explorer with the Aviator and Corsair having poor reliability.
Mazda Has the Most Reliable Cars
Overall, for the first time ever, Mazda ranked first as the brand with the most reliable vehicles. This is a big win for the Japanese automaker to dethrone Toyota and Lexus at the top spot of the annual vehicle reliability survey.
Mazda’s small CX-3, still subcompact CX-30, and compact CX-5 also performed well in reliability ratings, all scoring 85 or better.
These types of consistent results helped push Mazda into the most reliable car brand spot. We recently ranked the CX-30 on our best SUV list.
The Top 5 Most Reliable Car Brands
In 2020, Lexus took the top spot in the survey. The LS model didn’t fare as well this year and that contributed to dropping the luxury automaker to the third spot. Lexus’ parent company Toyota finished second in the reliability survey for 2021 models.
Buick and Honda rounded out the top five most reliable car brands. Honda’s midsize crossover, the Passport, had reported reliability problems.
What Helped Mazda Have the Most Reliable Vehicles?
Based on the survey Mazda’s success with reliable vehicles is due in part to their use of more durable, six-speed automatic transmissions in lieu of continuously variable transmissions (CVTs).
CVT use is growing in popularity among automakers but they tend to be more fragile and less reliable. That means more repairs, more expense, and a lower reliability score.
Mazda has accomplished while still maintaining above-average fuel economy in their vehicles. And with their crisp handling and quality fit and finish, their vehicles are known to be fun to drive.
CR also noted that Mazda takes an iterative approach to vehicle design. Instead of making wholesale changes on models, they take a more gradual approach to change. This has lead to less flaws with defects and other unexpected flaws due to new technology.
Despite having less emphasis on cabin tech, Mazda still garners excellent safety ratings. It’s subcompact CX-3 model earned an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick+ award for its crash test ratings.
However, if you like touch screens, large infotainment systems, or other advanced tech, Mazda may not be the brand for you.
The Most Improved 2021 SUV
Buick was the most improved brand for reliability, jumping up 14 spots to the 4th spot overall among carmakers. Its subcompact crossover, the Encore, showed significant improvements in reliability and came in as the second most reliable crossover model.
Other brands that showed improvement in reliability included BMW, with its midsize X5 model making gains, Volvo, with its XC40 performing well, and Jeep with the Wrangler doing better.
German SUV Reliability
Porsche was the highest-ranked European automaker finishing 9th overall among automotive brands in the reliability survey.
Audi was in the middle of the pack. The A5 and A4 models both rated above average. However, its reliability rating was hurt by the subcompact Q3 crossover, the new tech-heavy midsize coupe crossover Q8, and its e-tron electric SUV. These models were found to have below or well below average reliability in the study.
Mercedes may do well on the innovation, comfort, and technology side but they didn’t fare well in reliability. Mercedes finished last among German automakers in the 20th spot.
Tesla’s new Model Y crossover, unfortunately, didn’t fare so well in the CR reliability survey. Reported issues with fit and finish including misaligned body panels and mismatched paint tanked its rating.
The Model Y’s rating was much worse than average. It dragged the electric automaker down to the penultimate spot in the reliability rankings, ahead of only Lincoln.

we are planning a project with the iMX DUAL. Low energy consumption is very important in some device states.
Therefore the following question:
Is it possible to transfer via SPI received data (rate 500kHz) via DMA to one of the internal RAMs (TCM or OCRAM) during System Idle mode or even during Low Power Idle mode ?
System Idle mode power consumption is around 30mW
Low Power Idle mode is around 3mW
10.1.4.3 Low Power Modes
The ECSPI does not operate under low power mode.
Thanks in advance


Laser-sintering for hybrid sports car.
A problem that Westfield needed to solve--and which Stephen Lambert, a research engineer at Warwick Manufacturing Group (www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/wmg) took on-was how to keep the 396 lithium-ion phosphate cells that power the electric motors from overheating, because heat can sap the power and the available time of the batteries.
Lambert initially stored the cells in rows, side by side, in two battery boxes machined from solid plastic. A box would be dedicated to each motor. But then engineers from EOS (eos.info), a producer of laser-sintering machines, suggested another solution: two arrays of 11 plastic modules; each module would accommodate 18 cells, each in its own cylindrical cavity.
They used an EOSINT P-series laser sintering machine to produce the modules with layers of fused EOS PA 2200 polyamide powder, based on data from a CAD model. By using this additive approach rather than machining, they were able to create air channels between each cell cylinder and between adjacent modules when they are bolted together. The consequent enhanced air cooling of the 3.6-volt cells helps boost the performance of the batteries and the electric motors.
According to Lambert, "By adding drive to the front wheels, we have managed to increase acceleration significantly From a standing start, the Westfield Hybrid in four-wheel drive mode achieves 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, compared with 5.5 seconds when only the rear wheels are driven."
The Westfield hybrid project is being jointly funded by the Warwick Innovative Manufacturing Research Centre and Potenza Technology (potenza.co.uk/technology/home.htm).


In past years, when the Nationals did not have the best record in baseball, Opera in the Outfield was about the most exciting thing going on in September on the field at Nationals Park. But with the Nats looking more and more like a playoff lock, this year’s Opera in the Outfield is just one more good reason to spend an evening at the ballpark.
Today, the Washington National Opera announced new details for this year’s simulcast of “Don Giovanni,” the tale of a self-important philanderer on the brink of a serious smackdown by karma (or its 17th-century Spanish equivalent).
This year, Brightest Young Things is co-hosting the free event, and there will be a plethora of pregame activities, including stage-fighting demos, flamenco dancing by Furia Flamenca and a pre-party in the Stars & Stripes Club starting at 5 p.m.
Want to pregame the pregame? Check out our list of spots for food and drinks around Nationals Park.

The Hungry Heartland | Kansas City
Late-night channel surfing once led me to Union Pacific, Cecil B. DeMille's 1939 saga about the construction of the transcontinental railroad. But real life gave me the opportunity to create my own epic: my architectural firm recently designed a restaurant outside Kansas City's Union Station, once the second-largest railway station in the United States.
The restaurant, Lidia's (101 22nd St.; 816-221-3722), is the newest venture by Lidia Bastianich and her son, Joseph, the owners of Felidia, Becco and Frico Bar in Manhattan. The location is the Freight House, an abandoned brick building near the railroad tracks. The Freight House Arts District, an area of spectacular redevelopment, is home to a burgeoning creative community, and a $250 million science museum is currently under construction there.
Bastianich was determined that her restaurant pay tribute to both the past and the future of Kansas City. My team and I followed her lead by restoring the shell of the Freight House to its original state while also giving it a clean, contemporary feel: there's an exposed pitched roof, plus light fixtures from a local artist who uses found materials, mainly industrial metal, in his designs. The menu, with such items as air-dried beef salad with truffle oil and saltimbocca (thin slices of veal seasoned with sage), features the northern Italian recipes that have made the Bastianich empire so successful.
On a trip last summer with some of my architects to check out the future site of Lidia's (scheduled to open in late October), we met up with David Wagner, the Bastianiches' business partner, and Mary Simpson, the restaurant manager. Passing a Folgers plant that filled the air with the delicious aroma of roasting coffee, we headed to the Freight House, where workers were busily sandblasting the ceiling, restoring the wood to its pristine glory.
As soon as we announced that we were from New York, the workers began to put down Krispy Kreme, the chain of doughnut shops that has become a Manhattan favorite. They informed me that Kansas City's 65-year-old LaMar's Donuts (with 12 branches in town) puts Krispy Kreme to shame. Warner and Simpson suggested we purchase a batch for the crew. The light, fluffy, greasy confections were superb.
After visiting an antiques showroom, we started to get hungry again. Our next stop, the American Restaurant (2501 Grand Ave.; 816-426-1133), is in Crown Center, a downtown development owned by the Hall family of Hallmark fame. Michael Smith and Debbie Gold, two of the Midwest's best chefs, have been here for four years, and they're so committed to quality ingredients that they fly in fresh fish daily. The feast they prepared for us included risotto with quail, truffles and chanterelles as well as foie gras with plums. The restaurant was built in 1974, and it's a study in classic Seventies design, filled with mirrors, glass, brass, chrome and bentwood Gothic arches.
We opted to follow this elegant meal with something down-home. When we announced that we were heading to L.C.'s (5800 Blue Pkwy.; 816-923-4484), Smith and Gold whipped off their chef's whites and joined us.
An old metal smoker sits in front of L.C.'s, from behind which L.C. Richardson once peddled barbecue to passersby. In addition to his tender, tangy ribs, which swim in a rich sweet-and-sour sauce, we ate brisket ends on white bread and goopy pork sandwiches and swilled strawberry soda. As we left, we spotted L.C. at the smoker and tried to speak with him, only to be told he was too busy cooking. Creating great barbecue clearly requires undivided attention.
Even though we were smeared with sauce, we moved on to Arthur Bryant's Barbecue (1727 Brooklyn Ave.; 816-231-1123). If L.C.'s is a cool dive, Arthur Bryant's feels like a tourist attraction, with Jimmy Carter and Steven Spielberg staring out from photographs on the walls. Spoiled by L.C.'s, I found Bryant's food to be sweeter and not as flavorful.
While Kansas City is famous for its jazz as well as for its barbecue (the Kansas City Jazz Museum and the Blue Room jazz club are both must-sees), the city's ethnic diversity is often overlooked. Hispanics, for instance, make their home on the West Side, where a string of Mexican restaurants lines the main artery, Southwest Boulevard. On our last day in town, we decided to check out El Pequeño Guadalajara (701 Southwest Blvd.; 816-842-8141), which seats only 10 people--it may be the smallest restaurant I've ever been in. Having spent eight formative years growing up in Guadalajara, I felt qualified to judge the cuisine. I gave the tacos, tostadas, burritos and enchiladas an A+ for authenticity.
The tour came to an end in Little Italy, now populated largely by Vietnamese. We stopped at Kim Nguyen Deli(522 Campbell St.; 816-471-4466), a cheery Vietnamese restaurant with neat rows of booths. We ate delicate spring rolls, crisp fried shrimp wrapped in lettuce leaves and dipped into a spicy sauce and marvelous fried sweet potatoes that were genuinely sweet.
Finally we poked our heads into LaSala's Deli (910 E. Fifth St.; 816-421-2189), one of the last Italian outposts in Little Italy. I had time to down a delicious meatball sandwich before heading to the airport. I was sad to leave but knew that if I lingered any longer, there'd be no going back.

The oil pressure switch is a hydraulic-electric conversion element that uses the pressure of the liquid to open and close the electrical contacts. When the system pressure reaches the setting value of the pressure switch, an electrical signal is sent to make the electrical components (such as electromagnets, motors, time relays, electromagnetic clutches, etc.) actuate, depressurize and reverse the oil circuit, and the actuators realize sequential actions. Or turn off the motor to stop the system and play a safety protection role.

Ukrainian Bogdan Senchukov wants to carve his way into the Guinness Records: by making the world's biggest collection of musical instruments from matchsticks.
Already, 15 of his real-sized instruments, including two guitars, accordions, violin and drums, are played by a band of musicians which prides itself as the only "match music band" in Ukraine.
"When the instrument plays ... I cannot find words to express my feelings when something made of these tiny sticks plays as an ordinary musical instrument does.
Senchukov's hobby started at school and he has since then handcrafted items recreated in minute detail, including a tank from The World of Tanks computer game and a miniature Eiffel Tower, but his real passion is musical instruments.
"(What I love) is to carve, to glue, to make it hold the shape, to take into account microns of a millimetre and to make it play in the end," Senchukov, 29, told Reuters as he worked on his second violin.
"When the instrument plays ... I cannot find words to express my feelings when something made of these tiny sticks plays as an ordinary musical instrument does."
While most modern musical instruments are made of beech or acacia wood, Senchukov's instruments are made of what experts say is the least 'musical' wood, aspen, commonly used to make matches.
It took Senchukov six months and 27,000 matchsticks to create a bass musical instrument in the shape of a trident, the Ukrainian coat of arms, which he now plays in the band.
He said the most challenging part of his work was when some elements require more than 10 hours of continuous work. For example, a violin or guitar string plate has to be produced in one sitting, otherwise it will lose its shape.
Another time-consuming process was cleaning the match heads, but Senchukov's art and efforts did not go unnoticed, and one Ukrainian factory now provides him with matchwood.
A holder of three national records, Senchukov is collecting documents to prove to the Guinness World Records that he has the biggest collection of musical instruments made of matchsticks.
N2N Gallery, Abu Dhabi, in collaboration with Coya Abu Dhabi has launched Spirit Animals, an exhibition of the artworks of Ukrainian artist Nina Murashkina
This autumn the famous K-pop stars Song Min-ho and Kang Seung-yoon will exhibit their paintings and photographs at London.
Here is a round-up of all the words people typically get wrong in famous songs, are you one of them?
In recent years, the cartoon series has become known for its uncanny ability to seemingly guess what will happen in the future.
Rasika says: "Jharkhand is a beautiful and culturally rich state - national parks, waterfalls, dance forms, art forms and the best food."

A Student Council
Seated, left to right-Lola Mae Turner, John Howes, President, Mr. E-dmundson,
Advisor, Wilma Sellers, Secretary, John McKean. '
Second row-Earnest Linden, Darlene Linden, Tom Nevitt, Mary Ellen Calhoun,
. Richard Owens.
"Ask the Student Council" is a fam-
iliar saying when new suggestions or
questions arise in any class or club. They
also sponsor Big Brother and Sister Day,
The Carnival, Home Coming and the Bra-
Two events that members of the stu-
dent Council always look forward to are
the District and State Conventions. At the
district meeting in East Peoria this fall
we not only received much interesting in-
forimation about council organization, soc-
ial :problems in the schools, and financing
student coun-cil activities, but also Lola
Mae Turner was elected secretary of the
Pekin District, Mr. Edmundson and three
delegates will attend the state convention
which is held at Carbondale in Afpril. We
feel that we received a great deal of valu-
able information here besides meeting stu-
dents from schools all over the state,
The annual home coming and carnival
was the big event of the year for the stu-
dent council. This was especially exciting
this year for we played our rival, T-oulon,
in the afternoon. Of course nothing could
stir up more enthusiasm than the parade
-at noon. This consisted of clever floats
from the various classes, clubs and indiv-
uals. The band leading the parade, start-
ed from the school, marched through the
main streets, and back to school before
the game started, During the intermission
at the half the bicycle floats paraded
around the field and the winners of the
parade were announced.
Although much excitement was aroused
during the day, this was mild compared
to the usual excitement aroused at a
good carnival. The first part of the eve-
ning was spent in enjoying the variety of
booths, confetti, dancing and bingo. The
student council was in charge of the bingo
g-ame and the winners were 'pleased with
their nice prizes. The carnival king and
queen, Jerry Holland and Helen Alex-
ander were crowned at eleven o'clock.
One of the student council's biggest
projects is Big Brother and Sister Day.
This is held each spring. The student
council visits the different grade schools
in the Bradford High School territory and
invites all eighth grade students to at-
tend the high school for one day. The
visitors are taken by the freshmen and
shown around the school. They visit all
the classes they will attend next year as
Another responsibility of the student
council is the printing of -the annual. We
publish this as a visual description of
student life-so that all students after
graduation may look back on their school
The student council wishes to be re-
membered by all students as a clearing
house of all friction in the school between
classes or otherwise. Its motto is a "'Big-
ger and Better B. H. S."

“Winds amongst the alive and mostly dead trees of Auger Falls Trail System.”
— Tony Blankers
Easy. Flowy. Close to parking.
This singletrack branches off of the Koda's Trail
and Porcupine Trail
junction and connects to the Auger Falls Trail parking lot. It winds amongst primarily dead, but a few living trees near a mostly dry creek bed. Look for a few optional rock features along the side. It can also be done in reverse.


By Ingrid Sapona
Are you the type who tends to live by the motto: if it ain’t
broke, don’t fix it? Or are you more inclined to replace things before they
brake? I used to think that everyone fit into one of these two camps. Now I
realize, however, that there’s a third camp: the “it doesn’t really matter, you
can’t win” camp.
My natural inclination is to replace things before they
brake. This position is rational on a number of levels, I think. First off,
things wear out. So, if you accept that something will need replacing within a
given timeframe – why not replace it before it breaks?
The main reason for replacing things on a schedule is to avoid
inconvenience. Isn’t there some variation on Murphy’s Law that says things always
break at the most inopportune times? So if you can avoid the inconvenience, why
not? Actually, sometimes inconvenience is the least of the problem – some breakdowns
can be dangerous. (Like an alternator belt that snaps while you’re in the fast
lane on the highway!) And of course, if you plan when you’ll repair or replace
things, you can budget for them.
As I get older, I’ve become more of a “don’t fix it till it’s
broke” type. Again, there are a couple reasons this approach makes more sense
to me now. For starters, there have been a number of times when I’ve had something
– a car, computer, t.v., and so on – misbehave but when I’ve taken it to be “fixed”,
the problem, squeak, or glitch doesn’t seem evident. So, the repairperson is
left guessing – and that can be time consuming and costly. I’m sure you’ve had a service person (whether
through honesty or laziness) tell you, “Your best bet is to bring it back when
Because the desire to avoid inconvenience coupled with underlying
insecurity still looms large in my life, I’ve not adopted the wait till it’s
broke mantra in every instance. So, for some things, I do seek routine testing
that others might not bother with. My boat batteries are a prime example. Over
the winter I trickle charge them. Every spring, as Dad used to, before
installing them I take them to be tested to see if they are holding a charge.
So, on Sunday I dutifully brought them to Canadian Tire, the
store where I bought them. The technician put the first one on the testing
machine, hooked it up, and keyed in the battery type. He said the test can take
from a couple minutes to about 90, depending on the shape the battery is in.
The machine does its thing and within a couple minutes, out comes a receipt-size
printout. Given that I had charged it all winter, I figured the test was quick
because the battery must be in good shape.
The technician then read the results aloud: Replace Battery.
He tears off the receipt and hands it to me. According to the report, the 650
amp battery is only measuring 74 amps. So, do I take a chance that it’ll last
the summer, or do I replace it this year? One battery was getting up there in
years, so I kind of figured I’d be buying one this year. Maybe it’s time I
replace that one.
Meanwhile, he hooks up the second one. A few short minutes
later, out comes the report: Replace Battery. Given that the second one tested
was the newer one, I assumed it would at least read higher than 74 amps. I was
speechless when it read 0 amps!
My initial thought was that maybe I fried that battery. In
my trunk was the Canadian Tire charger I used. I brought it in to show him. He
reassured me that I used the right charger settings. Feeling overwhelmed and frustrated,
I told him I needed to think about it and so I loaded them back in my trunk. Replacing
both would cost just under $300.
As I headed home, I still couldn’t believe the one registered
a 0. So, I decided to take them to another place to be re-tested. Since
Canadian Tire is the only place I know that does this, I went to another
Canadian Tire across town.
The guy there was only too happy to help. He hooked up the
first one and in minutes, out came the report. He smiled and said, “Good
Battery”, handing me the printout. That was the battery that previously showed
74 amps. On his machine it showed 634 amps. He hooked up the second battery and
same result: “Good Battery”, with 630 amps. I couldn’t believe it.
I showed him the previous test results. He shrugged and said
he was confident the tester he used is fast and accurate. He also said that maybe
the other guy keyed in something wrong but, in any event, he wouldn’t worry
about the batteries. I told him he made my day and I thanked him for saving me
a whack of money.
In the end, I decided to believe the results of the second
set of tests, but should I? Is it any more logical to assume – based on those
tests – that both batteries will see me through the sailing season with no
problems? Or, should I just bite the bullet and get a new one to replace the
older of the two? Or, might the first guy have keyed in something a bit wonky
thinking a woman might take failing results at face value, rather than question
them? Stuff like this doesn’t make decision-making easier, that’s for sure.
If anything, incidents like this just push me into that
third camp and they remind me that Doris Day had it right when she sang Que

I've been drawing & painting like mad over the past few days. I'd love to show and tell, but there's a lot of angst and negativity involved and I feel like I've been overstating that side of me, lately... These are times of transition, of growth and growing pains for me. I'm channelling lots of stuff into my art journal in stead of into words, and that's a huge step up. I'm slowly letting go of the idea that - if I can word things, I can grasp and control them. So I'm drawing them. It feels good, and I'm getting drawing practise in at the same time :)
But while dealing with things - or: look, pick apart, disect and study the remains - is a big part of who I've always been, life definitely isn't all bad. There's just not enough time in a day to draw all that and sweet smelling roses!
So for the sake of something completely different, I'm sharing our smallest room with you today :)
I'm trying to make it a happier place, seeing that we spend so many hours there, in a lifetime. The (ceramic) houses and cars are the latest addition, I stuck them up with double sided tape just this morning. We brought them home from South Africa, as an odd souvenir :)
My awesome neighbour and friend Tamar says Dutch toilets are the cleanest, but also the most boring in the world. She ought to know, she's a self-proclaimed, well-travelled expert on the subject ;)*
I started decorating toilets long before I met her, and it's a work in progress, but I'm bent on proving her wrong, anyway :)
*she said so in this awesome bit of stand-up comedy (sadly only for the Dutch speakers among you!):

I’m not a huge fan of cream bread (pastry bread that has soft cream filling), but when my sister, my mom, and I were shopping in Shinjuku the other day, we saw the booth of Hattendo (八天堂）, and my sister immediately said we have to buy some, like we were tricked–it’s that good. So we bought a few.
The bread is airy even if time has passed since it was purchased, and the cream filling is not too heavy, and the whole thing can be consumed in under a minute. We ate one for breakfast, too, and that’s doable for anyone, not just for the sweet-tooth like us.
Flavors come in variety, and we bought: plain, matcha, fresh cream, and chocolate (all flavors of the filling; the bread is the same). My favorite is the fresh cream, which I had first. The airy-ness of the cream bread ranks #1 on my list.

DETROIT — Let’s see if we can follow the trail of shame.
The Yankees got swept in embarrassing fashion by the Tigers, who in turn got swept in just slightly less embarrassing fashion by the Giants — who are stunningly your World Series champions for the second times in three seasons after outlasting the Tigers, 4-3 in 10 innings, in Game 4 at Comerica Park.
Does this chain of events make the Yankees look even worse, that they couldn’t keep up with a club that subsequently keep up with a team that starts Ryan Theriot as its designated hitter? Or does it shed some sympathetic light on the Yankees and the month of October as a whole, strengthening the notion that the postseason is so random that it’s a fool’s errand to try to derive any sense from it?
Put my vote in the latter column.
“This game is nuts,” said former Yankees left-hander Phil Coke, who suffered the season-ending loss despite pitching extremely well over the month. “This game is crazy. No matter how good a pitch you throw, the dude at the other and is just as good.”
The critical dude at the other end on this night was someone who boosted his Q rating exponentially this month: Marco Scutaro, the decent middle infielder, who stroked a single to center field to score Theriot from second base. Sergio Romo pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the inning, and the Giants celebrated in front of an impressively large contingent of Giants fans in enemy territory.
The Tigers’ swing in fortune was as dizzying on the inside as it seemed from the outside, veteran manager Jim Leyland confirmed.
“I’m a little bit flabbergasted, to be honest with you,” Leyland said. “In both of those series, I never would have thought that we would have swept the New York Yankees, and I never would have thought that the Giants would have swept us, but it happened.
“It’s a freaky game, and it happened, and so be it.”
The Tigers seemed sad, but not shocked, as had the Yankees in this very building 11 days prior.
“We played hard,” said Prince Fielder, who went 1-for-14 in the Fall Classic. “You can’t try harder.”
Said American League Triple Crown winner Miguel Cabrera, who struck out looking to end the series and wound up 3-for-13 with three walks: “We never found our game. We never played our best baseball. We want to win a World Series for Detroit here.”
Are these the words of losers? Not self-critical enough? Eh.
“If somebody told me in spring training that we would be in the World Series, I would have had to say I’ll take that,” Leyland said. “It was kind of a weird way that we got there because we were a little inconsistent all year. Then we played pretty good when we had to get the division, and we obviously played pretty good through the first two rounds of the playoffs. We got to the World Series and we just sputtered offensively.”
Only one team gets to celebrate last each season. The Giants, remarkably, have earned that right in both 2010 and 2012. Yet that hardly makes them favorites for next year. They’ll have decisions to make this winter and then will need some breaks to fall their way next season.
The same goes for the Tigers, and for the Yankees, whose hitters were accused by many of some sort of moral failing simply because they didn’t hit. The younger, more intimidating duo of Cabrera and Fielder proved just as susceptible to the October blues as did Alex Rodriguez, Robinson Cano, Curtis Granderson and Nick Swisher.
“You expand the strike zone,” Cabrera said. “That’s why you see a lot of strikeouts, because you want to make something happen. To me, that’s the worst thing you can do.”
Cabrera struck out in his final three at-bats last night.
Back at ’em next year for everyone. A fresh start and, if they can survive the regular-season marathon, a fresh October. And the best path to missing October altogether is obsessing over what went wrong the previous October.
“We did everything we could,” Fielder said. “We can go to sleep at night.” As should the other 28 teams that won’t spend the winter celebrating.

UK - London - Rush hour commuters on London Bridge.
A jogger runs through passing commuters, on the southern end of London Bridge. With his pet dog, the man jogs past down towards the river down nearby steps. The City of London is a geographically small City within Greater London, England, the historic core of London from which, along with Westminster, the modern conurbation grew. The City's boundaries have remained constant since the Middle Ages but it is now only a tiny part of Greater London. This is a major financial centre, often referred to as just the City or as the Square Mile, as it is approximately one square mile (2.6 km) in area. London Bridge's history stretches back to the first crossing over Roman Londinium, close to this site and subsequent wooden and stone bridges have helped modern London become a financial success.Add to Cart Add to Lightbox Download

Next week begins the 2014 extended CSA season. For the next 31 weeks we endeavor to feed the community from our fields. Our best guess for the first share is lettuce, spinach, arugula, Swiss chard, carrots, asparagus, green onions and a choice of herbs.
We also plan to give each extended season share a dozen eggs (if you do not eat eggs, let us know and we will substitute with something else.) It was not the plan to include eggs in the shares, but we are doing it this once because we feel that some of the share items will be smaller than we would like. Such has been this cold starting spring (see last post), and our high tunnel growing learning curve.
If you would like additional eggs they are $5.00/ dozen. Email us with an order and they will be delivered to distribution for you (while current supplies last).
The normal Spring routine of plant, mulch, cover was tested this morning with a low temp. of 24.8 deg. F.
A heavy frost covered most of the fields. It seems all survived intact thanks to the row cover. The perennial crops like the strawberries can handle the frost better and looked fine once the frost melted.
The greenhouse is filling with peppers, eggplant and tomatoes. We are hoping to squeeze the last of the cool-weather crops out to the fields by the end of the week.

Alphabet’s subsidiary Google on Monday unveiled a new program for news publishers that will replace its “First Click Free” policy. The new program targeted at subscription-based websites is called Flexible Sampling and will allow media outlets to select the amount of content the user will be able to browse for free after landing on their websites from the Google’s search results page. There will be no set minimum of articles that the website will have to give its visitors for free before the paywall is enforced and, in case of publishers not offering any free content, enlisting into this program will not affect the website’s ranking on the search engine.
The California-based tech giant has been getting a lot of flak in recent months from outlets like The Wall Street Journal and New York Times for having strict rules related to its previous policy. A growing number of news publishers have been putting their content behind subscriptions and paywalls, which Google’s users could circumvent by accessing the websites via search results. The websites that played by Google’s rules therefore had to let the visitors read up to three articles for free. In case a publisher denied any free content, Google’s bots wouldn’t crawl through the whole contents of the website, therefore lowering the search rank of that company. Contrary to the firm’s previous belief, free samples also didn’t lead to a substantial subscriber increase for publishers. Therefore, media giants like News Corp decided to approach Google and have been discussing possible changes to the program so that both sides could benefit, thus creating Flexible Sampling and relevant search engine policy tweaks.
Flexible Sampling is coming into effect this week along with the discontinuation of the previous policy. Google is also working closely with several major publishers on creating a long-term strategy and a more user-friendly experience of subscribing to news websites. The company says it’s looking into simplifying the process of purchasing subscriptions with tools that should benefit both publishers and readers, along with employing machine learning to drive more customers to the right places. Google claims it’s seeking to treat all news networks equally and help them lead sustainable businesses in in the long term.

Leg-vein disease refers to the varicose and spider veins that form on the legs. Why be concerned about them? Progressed leg-vein disease causes pain, discomfort, swelling, scarring, restlessness, and sometimes-even sores.
There are multiple risk factors for leg-vein disease. Although some risk factors are unavoidable, awareness of some others may help you prevent varicose and spider veins.
Awareness and proactive prevention can help minimize the development and severity of leg-vein disease.
Leg-Vein Disease Risk Factors
Age is an unavoidable risk factor for leg-vein disease. As you get older, you have an increased risk of leg-vein blockage.
While leg-vein disease can affect people of any race, it is most commonly found in Caucasians.
Around 70 percent of leg-vein disease is seen in women and only about 30 percent is seen in men. This means women are 2 ½ times more likely to contract leg-vein disease.
You can’t go back in time and change your family history. Just be aware that genetics do affect the legs. Keep on the lookout as you age if your parents or grandparents have suffered from leg-vein disease.
History of Leg Injury
If you have experienced traumas in your legs or ankles you can have a higher risk of vein disease. Common traumas that can increase your chances are surgical incisions, the impact of a ball, or the result of being kicked by a large animal.
Being Overweight or Obese
Overweight conditions and obesity are certainly a risk factor to consider in avoiding leg-vein disease. Obese patients are more difficult to treat and sometimes have a higher risk of varicose and spider veins returning. Some doctors believe the higher abdominal pressure seen in obese patients can interfere with the rising flow of blood through leg veins. Overweight or obese patients also have swelling in their legs, which can put pressure on the lymph vessels and create blockage issues.
Living a Sedentary Lifestyle or Lacking Exercise
One hundred years ago leg vein issues were far less common. Modern lifestyles often include a lot of time spent either standing at work or sitting down at computers or in cars. Because of this, regular exercise is imperative to combat vein issues by keeping your blood flowing properly. If you do spend a large amount of time either sitting or standing, you may not necessarily contract leg-vein disease, but if you’re genetically prone to leg-vein disease or currently have it, a sedentary lifestyle can quicken or upset leg-vein conditions.
Experiencing Multiple Pregnancies
The risk of developing leg-vein disease increases with each pregnancy. While possible leg-vein disease is probably not a deterrent for most people wanting to have children, awareness and other preventative measures (such as exercising regularly and maintaining a healthy weight) should be considered.
If you have questions regarding the risk factors for leg-vein disease
or would like to make an appointment to see a leg-vein specialist,
contact the Midwest Vein Care office today.

It is tough for a Pakistani to come to terms with calling his restaurant Indian. Hence the name Woodlands International Restaurant. Of course, it is known as Woodlands Indian Restaurant anyway. A Pakistani Muslim family running an Indian Vegetarian Restaurant, and running it very successfully is a good sight. There were at least six, all male, family members from three generations manning this place. They were all over the place: counter, kitchen, and service. An advantage of eating at a family-owned and family-operated restaurant is that the whole team is more than willing to take whatever comes in their stride. A great plus in the restaurant business.
Woodlands has an elaborate south Indian and north Indian menu. Their fame is all over. When we asked our guide for the best Indian restaurant in Hong Kong, she knew what she had to recommend. This place is not a fancy, stylish fine-dining restaurant. It is more like your next door Indian eatery, despite their cloth napkins.
So here we go:
Location: UG 16-17, Wing On Plaza, 62 Mody Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong. It is behind Salisbury Road, within walking distance from the Avenue of Stars.
Interior: Standard semi-formal seating. There is decor, just about. As it is a family-run and family-managed restaurant, you have a family member standing behind the only counter and delivery window.
Reservations: This place gets busy, but I am not sure whether they take reservations. The telephone number: 2369 3718.
Man at the counter: Polite, courteous, very busy.
Staff: No uniforms, all family members wear everyday clothes.
Crockery: Stainless steel plates and bowls, Indian style.
Water Glasses: Everyday-use glass tumblers.
Table and seating: Cramped layout, you can call it efficient too. I would have preferred it to have at least 20% fewer seats.
Food: All the food was absolutely freshly cooked. We had idlis, and they were exactly how good idlis should be. Sambar was tasty and coconut chutney was made from an authentic recipe. They serve three idlis to a portion. The paneer bhurji and roti combination was awesome. The paneer was fresh and right cooked and the rotis were crispy and big enough. The raita was delicious with lot of veggies, including tomatoes. Rava plain dosa was big enough to be a complete meal for one person.
We all loved the food and would definitely go back if and when we are in Hong Kong again.

That feeling of being a scatterbrain has managed to creep its way into every aspect of my life lately. The good news is I think I scared it away, and I have finally gotten some things worked out. For example, I hope you noticed that this site is back. It is brand spanking new, and I am in so many ways starting over. The archives of my old blog are here in case you wanted to go back and sort through some of my past posts, a whopping 10 years of posts! I plan on eventually going through it and putting some links to my favorite posts here. For now though this place is wide open, just waiting for the return of some good stories, photographs, and art!
There have been so many upheavals lately in many aspects of my life. To start, I’ve moved 250 miles to the north to rural Wisconsin. I quit my full-time job to make this move, and am now working full-time as an artist and working on this little biz that I am creating here. Ezra is growing like a weed and is already a toddler and no longer a baby! It is crazy how a fast a year goes, and how much changes in that time. Life has been chock full of change lately, but I feel it is finally settling down, and we are settling into our new home, and life! Just in time for winter. Eeep! I look forward to a bit of hibernating this winter, and some long naps!
We are blessed, and I am forever grateful for all the things that have fallen into place over the past year to make this little dream a reality. I can’t wait to share my art, life, and adventures here with you in this space again. It is so good to be back, and thank you so very very much for joining me!

August 10 (Renewables Now) - Aussie renewables developer Windlab Ltd (ASX:WND) said on Thursday it has signed an off-take term sheet with Flow Power for around 50 MW of the output of its 104-MW Lakeland wind project in Queensland.
The binding power purchase agreement (PPA) term sheet is for a maximum period of 10 years and also covers related large-scale generation certificates from the contracted capacity. The signing of a resultant PPA is subject to the execution of definitive documentation and achieving financial close on the project before October 31.
Windlab’s CEO Roger Price said that the term sheet with electricity retailer Flow Power will enable the company to “work towards finalisation of the debt and equity arrangement for the project.” Windlab has already secured development approvals and a grid connection agreement.
Planned to be installed on the Cape York Peninsula in Far North Queensland, the Lakeland wind farm will use 30 turbines that will be connected to the national power grid. Once operational, it is anticipated to generate enough electricity to supply over 50,000 local homes.

Courtesy of the August air-pocket drop, there's an increased fear of a 2007 like stock market top along with the ensuing crash. What are the odds of a 2007/08 repeat?
Let's start out with a chart comparing the S&P 500 of 2007 with the S&P 500 of 2015.
The biggest parallel between 2007 and 2015 is a nasty summer selloff. The 10% 2015 drop started a month later (compared to 2007), but the panic low (at least initial 2015 panic low) occurred around the same time (Aug. 16 in 2007, Aug. 24 in 2015).
The recovery from the panic low is also similar (at least thus far). In 2007, the S&P 500 was able to rally to a new all-time high before rolling over for good.
Will the S&P 500 rally to new all-time highs like in 2007? Or has the bear market already started?
A new bear market?
Let's answer this question in baby steps. Since the Aug. 24 panic low at 1,867, the S&P rallied as much as 150 points. As of Monday, the S&P was still 100 points above its August low.
So, the first question should be whether the S&P will fall below 1,867.
Sunday's Profit Radar Report mentioned several reasons why the S&P 500 should test or break 1,867. Here are some of them:
Seasonality: Late September/early October is one of the worst times for the S&P 500 in terms of seasonality.
Post triple-witching weakness: Since 1991, there have been 33 Triple Witching Fridays that ended in the red (like last Friday). Twenty-four of them were followed by a weekly loss.
Weak August statistic: The S&P lost more than 5% in August. Since 1928, that's happened 13 times. Nine of 13 times September was down as well.
Based on a number of factors, a test or break of the August lows is likely. What is “supposed” to happen after that?
What about the 2015 fourth quarter?
Here are a few more stats worth considering:
The S&P lost more than 5% in August. Since 1928, that's happened 13 times. Nine of 13 times, September was down as well (yes, this is the same bullet point as above). However, the S&P 500 return from September through year-end was positive 10 of 13 times.
Seasonality is turning positive after October.
Along with stocks, investor sentiment nosedived to extreme bearish levels (bullish for stocks). In fact, according to one sentiment gauge, investors were more bearish in August 2015 than in March 2009, when the S&P traded around 700 (more details here).
A variety of indicators suggest further weakness followed by a fourth-quarter or year-end rally. Does that sound familiar?
The S&P 500 of 2015 may actually mirror 2011 (another pre-election year) more than 2007. In fact, stocks also hit an air pocket in summer of 2011, followed by weeks of choppy sideways trading.
Here's a closer look at 2011, and what the 2011 script says is next: S&P 500 Analysis — The Next Turn

The Rockstead Kon is a fully functional, full tang, fixed blade knife. Utilizing Rocksteads Honzukuri blade shape, this knife is an impressive piece to use, despite it's beautiful looks. The blade is made from ZDP189 powder metallurgic stainless steel, clad in VG10 stainless steel. Rockstead gets the ZDP189 to a Rockwell hardness of around 67HRc through the use of proprietary machines and nanotechnology (though the exact hardness is noted on the certificate, as Rockstead tests each knife individually).
The handle, as well as the sheath are crafted from wood micarta.
Not only the sharpness, but also the edge retention is unlike anything you've seen before. Rockstead has demonstrated this knife in numerous impressive cutting tests, including pushing the knife though a phone book like butter. There was also a test in which they cut tough, multi-strand Manilla rope 780 times. When they tested the edge afterwards, it was relatively unaffected. Despite all this, Rockstead advises against chopping with this ZDP-189 equipped knife. It is best suited for cutting tasks.
The total length of the Rockstead Kon is 254mm. The blade is 133mm, with a thickness of 5.2mm. The knife weighs a total of 236 grams and the sheath weighs 148 grams.

Find out where the tourists will play in South Africa
British & Irish Lions 2021 Venues
The British & Irish Lions 2021 squad will play matches at five different venues.
Their first match is at ‘home’ against Japan on Saturday 26 June at BT Murrayfield in Scotland, then they will play at four different stadiums in South Africa. It would have been more, like a traditional tour, but travel has been reduced to minimise the risks around Covid-19.
Related: New British & Irish 2021 Schedule Confirmed
Here is the lowdown on all the stadiums staging Lions matches in 2021, although the matches in South Africa are expected to be played behind closed doors because of the pandemic.
British & Irish Lions 2021 Venues
Situated in Scotland’s capital Edinburgh, Murrayfield has a capacity of 67,000 and is where the Scottish national team play their home matches.
It was built in 1925, although it had only one stand then. Other stands have been added and redeveloped over the past century.
Due to Covid restrictions, a crowd of 16,500 will be permitted for the Lions’ match against Japan in June.
Emirates Airline Park
The Lions will play their first two tour matches at this 62,000-seater stadium in Johannesburg. They open against Johannesburg-based franchise the Lions – not to be confused with the British & Irish tourists! – on 3 July and then play the Sharks, of Natal, on 7 July.
Known as Ellis Park before the naming rights were put up for sale, this stadium hosted five matches at the 1995 Rugby World Cup, including South Africa’s victory over New Zealand in the final. It was also a venue for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
Loftus Versfeld Stadium
This is the venue for the third match of the tour, against the Bulls on Saturday 10 July.
Situated in Pretoria, it has a capacity of nearly 52,000. The stadium is named after Robert Loftus Owen Versfeld, who founded organised sports in the city.
Like Ellis Park, Loftus Versfeld Stadium was a venue for both the 1995 Rugby World Cup and 2010 FIFA World Cup, and also hosted the famous second Test between the 2009 Lions and Springboks.
Cape Town Stadium
The newest of all the venues, Cape Town Stadium was built specifically for the FIFA World Cup in 2010.
It replaced an older ground, Green Point Stadium, and is located on the city’s waterfront, close to the Atlantic Ocean. It can seat 55,000 spectators.
Cape Town Stadium will host three Lions matches – more than any other venue. On 14 July, the tourists will take on South Africa A and then it’s local franchise the Stormers on 17 July. Cape Town is also the venue for the first of the three Tests, on 24 July.
It is also the venue for the next Sevens World Cup, which will take place in September 2022.
Also known as Soccer City, the First National Bank Stadium will stage the second and third Tests between Warren Gatland’s Lions and Jacques Nienaber’s South Africa.
The stadium first opened in 1989 and was upgraded to increase capacity 20 years later in time for the Football World Cup in 2010, when it hosted the final. It can now house nearly 95,000 people seated, making it one of the largest sports stadiums in the world.

The S-scan dedicated MRI scanner represents the latest development of Esaote’s technology in tomography MRI. It is perfectly in line with today’s strive for efficient and economic health care and a sensible choice for any practice with a substantial musculoskeletal work-load.


Red Moon Theatre Festival at the Ritz Theatre will emphasize the cultural diversity of Jacksonville
Over the course of his career as a playwright, director and actor, Ian Mairs has performed or directed at 18 different Northeast Florida venues. This weekend he adds a 19th with the Red Moon Theatre Festival, which he is co-producing with the Ritz Theatre & Museum.
The festival begins at 8 p.m. Friday with a staged reading of Katori Hall's Broadway hit "The Mountaintop" featuring Cassandra Freeman, an actress who made her film debut in Spike Lee's 2006 movie "Inside Man." Her co-star will be local actor David Girard. "The Mountaintop," which won the 2010 Olivier Award - the English equivalent of the Tony - as best new play, takes place during the last few hours of the life of Martin Luther King Jr.
Saturday will see a 2 p.m. screening of "Theatre of Rice and Beans," a documentary about New York City's three most influential Latino playhouses, directed by University of Florida theater professor Tony Mata. The screening will be followed by a question and answer session with Mata.
Then at 8 p.m. Saturday, and again at 3 p.m. Sunday, "Our Town," Thornton Wilder's 1938 Pulitzer Prize-winning drama, will be performed. The play, which has a multicultural cast, is directed by Mairs.
Wilder's sad but ultimately life-affirming story has become immensely popular, so much so that it is being performed somewhere in America virtually every day of the year, Mairs said. He was inspired to bring it to Jacksonville after attending an "Our Town" production with a multicultural cast that ran two years in New York City.
"I wanted to have a cast that reflected the diversity of Jacksonville," he said.
Though he had never worked at the Ritz Theatre before, Mairs said he was drawn by its proximity to downtown and to rapidly redeveloping Brooklyn.
"It's a pretty great facility that nobody uses enough," he said. "… There are so many intriguing artists working locally, regionally and in the national spotlight. It is time we opened the doors to this beautiful space and let them do what they do best - wow audiences."

Nanovoid formation induces property variation within and across individual silkworm silk threads†
Silk is a unique fiber, having a strength and toughness that exceeds other natural fibers. While inroads have been made in our understanding of silkworm silk structure and function, few studies have measured structure and function at nanoscales. As a consequence, the sources of variation in mechanical properties along single silk fibers remain unresolved at multiple scales. Here we utilized state of the art spectroscopic and microscopic methodologies to show that the silks of species of wild and domesticated silkworms vary in mechanical properties along a single fiber and, what is more, this variation correlates with nanoscale void formations. These results can also explain the strain hardening behaviours observed in the silks where structural features of the proteins could not. We thereupon devised a predictive thermal model and showed that the voids contribute to temperature regulation within the silkworm cocoons.
