States told a partnership means holding up their end of the bargain
During the Housing Ministers meeting in Darwin today Minister for Community Services, Senator Nigel Scullion reiterated the Australian Government’s preparedness to work with the states and territories and said he expected the same from them.
‘Everybody recognises that we can’t comprehensively address housing issues in this country if all levels of Government do not act on the levers available to them.
‘The state and territory Ministers came to Darwin to beat their chests and say they will work in partnership to address housing affordability, but whether they go back home and press their Treasurers to take action on a state front is another matter.
‘I don’t intend to take part in a political blame-shifting exercise, but it needs to be pointed out that the states are able to act to ease housing affordability and they continue to sit on their hands.
‘The meeting heard good discussion of creative ideas such as shared equity schemes, which the states know is being progressed through the Policy and Research Working Group and has been supported by the Australian Government through the CSHA.’
Senator Scullion said states and territories need to pull their weight as the Commonwealth has done all the heavy lifting with regard to housing over the past 10 years:
- Rent Assistance – $2.3 billion for 2007/08 alone
- Commonwealth State Housing Agreement (CSHA) around $1 billion per year for the last 10 years.
- In 2005/06, for every $1 the states and territories contributed, the Australian Government funded $4.
Senator Scullion said the states and territories need to take action to improve housing affordability for home buyers, especially first home buyers. In 2006/07 the states and territories collected nearly $17 billion in housing specific taxes and charges.
‘States and local governments can immediately improve housing affordability by releasing more land for development and by improving planning approval and development processes.
‘State housing authorities need to be more efficient in using the Commonwealth’s $1 billion a year contribution, through the CSHA, to increase housing stock. For example there were 13 less houses in 2004/05 (Australia wide) than there were in 1996/97.
‘State and territory CSHA administration costs increased to $923 million in 2004/05. This means that 98 per cent of the money we give to the states to build public housing is gobbled up by administration.
‘The Commonwealth is looking to the states and territories to play a real and meaningful part in contributing to better housing outcomes for all Australians,’ Senator Scullion said.

Twenty-one people riding bicycles have been killed this year on the streets of New York City. That’s more than double the number of bike fatalities in all of 2018. In early July, after a terrible week in which three people on bicycles were killed in quick succession, more than a thousand demonstrators showed up in Lower Manhattan’s Washington Square Park for a “Die-In” to demand that officials take more aggressive action to make streets safe. In this episode, we hear from Die-In participants and Doug, Sarah and Aaron talk about advocacy, activism and change-making. Is it better to be polite and work within the system or disobedient and disruptive? Who in city government should be the target of these urgent calls to action, the politicians or the police? What can we learn from the work of other grassroots social and political movements throughout history? And do NYPD bicycle cops ever actually ride their bikes or do they only use them as crowd control barricades?

Customer: accounting agency.Description: The customer needed a system to provide the full cycle of accounting information processing: input, checking, online publishing, delivery to clients.Our team developed a software package that runs on desktop computers as well as on mobile devices (Android and iOS platforms).The system includes:
Update server (to generate updated content and provide it to users)
Client applications for Windows, Android and iOS.
The system runs on Windows, Android and iOS.Technologies: C++, Java, JDBC, MySQL, Android SDK, Eclipse.
Client: a USA startup in social media sphere.Task: The idea of the project was to create an event-based social network with the focus on locations and easy sharing between users. Users have had an option to create new events and lock them with a password to share only between people they want to. The outstanding feature was the ‘searching for an event’ based on location within the specific radius and your own preferences (categories). It had integration with maps and other social networks (like Facebook and Twitter) to help users navigate and share photos, videos and moments with others.Our company developed a web site and mobile native applications for iOS, Android and Windows Phone. The project was considered as high load, and the architecture was built to meet this requirement.
Customer: world’s leading anti-spam service provider.
Task: The Customer requested our team to enhance and support its product
Solution: The RELEX team designed and developed the low level (kernel) of the incoming e-mail analysis system. Based on the kernel was created a new email scanner. To improve the filtering quality, the following functions were implemented in the system:
Message language auto-detection (without impairing the performance),
Natural language parsing
Collecting statistics based on the parser results.
These functional modules became the basis for an artificial intelligence system and containers for storing and accessing the accumulated statistics. Our team successfully resolved the task of filtering messages in Eastern languages (Chinese, Korean, Japanese etc.). The final application, besides the high email filtering quality and additional services, can process over 500 messages per second with full content analysis in the integrated target system.It also uses traditional methods of spam traffic limitation, like filtering the incoming TCP/IP traffic by the incoming IP address, which helps narrowing down the channel for unknown or suspicious traffic sources.Along with spam filtering, the system can identify messages of some specific categories, such as phishing, mail/safe-list and bounce/backscatter auto-generated.
Problem: Infection control in hospitals.Task: In order to provide robust and reliable supervision over the situation, the report and management tools are vital.
The Portal we made track the state of a medical device (sanitized, not sanitized, due etc.) among many other features. The core of the system is a database storage that aggregates the input information and provides access to historical data. We developed the full stack application (from database to web portal) to track information about mobile devices and their current state – sanitized and not sanitized - with notifications to responsible persons in hospitals to take action.LINUX OS and Linux virtual machines have been used throughout the project, including testing.

I've got a post planned for sometime in the near future. I was going to write it tonight, but I just don't feel like it.
What will it be about? An exploration of how I feel about music and what it means to me.
Why don't I feel like it tonight? A combination of things, really. The last twenty-four hours or so have been a roller coaster ride; lots of ups and downs. I accomplished a lot last night at work. Read a chapter of Don Quijote. Did some writing. Felt good about myself. Once the end of my shift drew near, things got worse. A whole bunch of things happened that I probably shouldn't let affect me, but they did.
This evening was going well. I received a new disc of Eli Stone episodes in the mail from Netflix. I already watched them, too. Great show. I really enjoy it and I am starting to really draw inspiration from it. I came in to work two hours early. I read two chapters of Don Quijote. I'm actually starting to enjoy reading this book. It's slow going, but I like it. That's a plus. I didn't think I'd enjoy reading it after the disastrous class I took on the book eight years ago.
But now? I'm just tired. And a little depressed. And I just don't feel like searching myself to find and describe how I feel about music.

The Green Bay Packers and Carolina Panthers meet in a Week 2 NFL clash. The Packers are coming off a thrilling 42-34 victory over the New Orleans Saints in the season opener while the Panthers watched Cam Newton have a terrific first start in a 28-21 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.
Where: Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C.
When: Sunday, Sept. 18 at 1 p.m. EDT
Listen: Packers—WIXX (101.1 FM) and WTAQ (1360 AM); Panthers— WCMC (99.9 FM) and WBT (1110 AM); Sirius Satellite Radio—Packers XM 94 (Internet 873), Panthers XM 117 (Internet 874)
Live Streaming Audio: NFL.com Audio Pass ($29.99 for year, $27.99 team specific, $9.99 a month)
Betting Line: Panthers +10
What's at Stake?
The Packers will have to deal with a tough division and don't want to fall behind a game early. Both the Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions had solid Week 1 performances, making the NFC North a three-team race, at least for now.
Aaron Rodgers was brilliant from the first possession and James Starks was the more effective running back with a touchdown and averaging nearly five yards per carry. The emergence of Randall Cobb makes an already deep receiving core more explosive.
The concern for Green Bay will be on defense. Granted they were going up one of the league's best offenses in New Orleans, but Clay Matthews didn't record a sack and the unit allowed the Saints to convert on 64 percent of third down attempts.
For the Panthers, there's a little less at stake in short-term picture. Even though Carolina won't be contending for the playoffs this season, Newton's performance proved there is hope for the future. The resurgence of Steve Smith, who was once one of the league's biggest deep threats, was also promising.
DeAngelo Williams was signed to a big extension in the offseason but failed to find any running room. He gained just 30 yards on 12 carries and didn't have a single rush over eight yards. Backup Jonathan Stewart didn't fare much better, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Mike Goodson get a few carries.
For the Panthers to succeed, the pass defense will need to improve. Chris Gamble did a great job shadowing Larry Fitzgerald, but the rest of the secondary failed to hold up their end of the bargain. Charles Johnson, who is trying to live up to a $76 million extension, picked up a sack.
Packers Injury Report
Questionable: DB Tramon Williams (shoulder), DL Mike Neal (knee), LB Vic So'oto (back)
Panthers Injury Report
Out: LB Jon Beason, WR Kealoha Pilares (ankle), DB Brandon Hogan (knee)
Fantasy: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em and Sleeper
Start 'Em: RB James Starks – Packers
An unheralded rookie out of Buffalo for most of last season, Starks emerged during the playoffs and has worked himself into a time share with Ryan Grant. Thanks to bulking up during the lockout, Starks will probably get more carries near the goal line, making him worthy of a fantasy play.
Prediction: 15 carries for 65 yards and a TD
Sit 'Em: WR Randall Cobb – Packers
Cobb has a fantastic performance in front of a huge television audience and became a hot fantasy commodity. The problem is that he only had two catches. You can't count on another kickoff return touchdown, and with so few targets the bust potential is high.
Prediction: three catches for 43 yards
Sleeper: TE Greg Olsen – Panthers
The Packers will have Charles Woodson following Steve Smith wherever he goes after his huge Week 1 performance. That means somebody else will have to step up and become Newton's main target. With the Panthers likely playing from behind, tight end Greg Olsen should get a lot of looks.
Prediction: six catches for 85 yards and a TD
What They're Saying
Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel discusses the Packers division and how they aren't likely to run away with it like some predicted in the preseason.
And from what he saw in his NFC North counterparts, McCarthy was impressed. The season is only 1 week old. But based on first impressions alone, it appears the Green Bay Packers will indeed have some company in the division.
It's far too premature to categorize who's phony and who's for real. But both the Lions and Bears may have nixed the notion that the Packers would simply waltz through the NFC North unscathed.
As teams learn every season, games are played on the field, not in the media. The Packers should know they'll have to keep their intensity level up all season in what's shaping up to be a tough division.
Scott Fowler of the Charlotte Observer plays a “Panthers by the numbers” game, which includes several interesting tidbits about Carolina's Week 1 loss to Arizona.
1.9 – I had this in my column today focusing on Cam Mania, but 1.9 was the average number of pass plays of 20 yards or more the Panthers had per game in 2010. They had eight 20-yard plus pass plays Sunday.
It will be important for Panthers fans to stick with Newton when he goes through the inevitable rough patches during the season. He illustrated how much talent he has, but don't forget he's still a rookie.
Packers Player to Watch: TE Jermichael Finley
Finley was bothered by an ankle injury heading into the opener and finished the game with just three catches. It's unclear how much the ailment hindered his performance against the Saints, but he should be fully recovered after more than a week off and could have a big game.
Panthers Player to Watch: QB Cam Newton
Who else? Newton passed for more than 400 yards in his first NFL game and showed every bit of potential that the Panthers expected when selecting him first overall. While he'll come back down to earth this week, he's the main reason Carolina fans should be excited for this game.
Key Matchup: Steve Smith vs Charles Woodson
Smith had his biggest game in four years last week and looked to have his game-changing burst back. The Packers will do their best to contain him, likely with Woodson on him all game with safety help over the top. Like Newton, Smith won't be able to approach his Week 1 numbers.
On the Hot Seat: RB Ryan Grant – Packers
Even though Grant is still listed as the starting running back on the Packers depth chart, Starks received more carries and found the end zone against the Saints. Grant will need to outshine his counterpart this week if the plans on maintaining at least half of the backfield duties.
Prediction: Green Bay Packers 31 Carolina Panthers 20


The latest Ford Mustang is powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The next Chevrolet Camaro is rumored to be smaller, lighter and likely powered by a four-cylinder engine. But when Dodge updated the Challenger coupe for 2015, its new addition wasn’t a four-cylinder engine — it was the tire-smoking SRT Hellcat model, powered by a jaw-dropping 707-horsepower, supercharged V-8. That’s what Dodge thinks of the smaller, lighter, more efficient trend, and kudos to the automaker. Who knows how much longer we’ll have cars like these on the road, given increasingly stringent fuel-economy mandates?
Dodge updated the Challenger inside and out, with a mild nose job and butt lift and a thoroughly new interior with modern conveniences. Powertrains mostly remain the same, with a new eight-speed automatic transmission replacing the old five-speed auto in the 2014 model. But with an all-new Mustang just around the corner and the Camaro not far behind, has Dodge gone far enough in updating the Challenger to keep it relevant and competitive?
There are several flavors of Challenger to choose from, and I drove them all at a recent press launch of the car in and around Portland, Ore., including track time at Portland International Raceway’s road course and drag strip. The car comes with one V-6 and three V-8 options for 2015, and any of the selections is highly entertaining. But we know there’s one version everyone wants to hear about first.
2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat
Featuring a supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V-8, it develops a whopping 707 hp and 650 pounds-feet of torque. At full throttle, it makes a roar like God’s own temper tantrum. Driving behind one, you’ll wince from hundreds of feet away at the bellowing wall of sound coming out of it. There are actual racecars that don’t make this much glorious noise. On the street, it’s as docile as the V-6 model — an easy daily driver that if driven calmly will get about 20 mpg highway with little fuss or drama, according to Dodge. On the track, it is an absolute monster: Even skilled drivers will likely never approach the limits of its ability, and amateurs will be rightly intimidated.
The speed it can produce is mind-boggling: My one and only Hellcat run at the drag strip scored a zero-to-60-mph time of 4.2 seconds and a 12.1-second quarter-mile at 116 mph. It’s faster than this, too, as another journalist achieved an 11.9-second quarter-mile with a better launch. The SRT cars feature standard Launch Control, an adjustable electronic program that allows a driver to brake-torque the transmission for an easily repeatable drag strip launch again and again. The SRT Performance Pages also feature electronic timers to record your performance, even allowing you to save and upload the stats to a computer.
The V-8 options, of course, don’t begin and end with the Hellcat. They actually start with the R/T. It gets a 372-hp, 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 and some additional styling and trim improvements over the V-6 models, but opt for the Scat Pack and you’ll get last year’s SRT engine — a 485-hp, 6.4-liter Hemi V-8, as well as a load of suspension and chassis improvements that basically provide equipment from 2014’s SRT Core model for nearly $2,800 less, according to Dodge.
As decent as the acceleration is in the V-6 model, it’s nothing compared to the thrust of the V-8 models. The standard six-speed manual transmission is notchy and smooth, with a clutch that’s neither too heavy nor too light and allows for easy operation in traffic or for beginners unfamiliar with shifting. The eight-speed automatic almost seems better suited to these cars, however; engaging the Sport mode will retune the transmission control computer (along with the engine management and electronic steering control) for a more aggressive experience. On the track or around town, the automatic never hunted for the right gear. It always seemed to know exactly what the conditions were and was ready to help the engine provide the necessary power when called upon. It is well-matched to the V-8’s power.
The real magic starts with the SRT models. Moving up from the R/T Scat Pack, which starts at $39,490 well equipped, is another screaming performance deal, the SRT 392. To set it apart from the lesser V-8 models, it features the 6.4-liter engine and a number of unique interior and chassis features such as a flat-bottom steering wheel, the largest brakes — 15.4 inches — ever fitted to a Chrysler vehicle, active suspension, an 18-speaker Harmon Kardon audio system, Nappa leather interior and more. The improvements to the suspension and brake system make it a lot of fun around a track, despite steering that’s still a little overboosted.
It’s a fast car — my instrumented drag-strip runs clocked the SRT 392 with a zero-to-60-mph time of 4.7 seconds, with a quarter-mile time of 12.9 seconds at 107 mph. This was at the end of a long day of road-course use as well, with the car thoroughly heat soaked; it’s almost certainly faster than this.
‘Settle’ for a V-6
The new entry level is the Challenger SXT (the SE trim is gone), packing the 305-hp, 3.6-liter V-6 engine and standard eight-speed automatic transmission. The V-6 model is the lightest of the bunch and feels like it.
Acceleration is brisk, with Chrysler stating that the car can do zero to 60 mph in 6.0 seconds flat, yet also achieve 30 mpg on the highway. Ride and handling are impressively solid, with none of the rattling or floatiness that one would expect from such a large coupe. Brakes are strong across the range, even in the V-6 model, and an optional Super Track Pack adds all the high-performance suspension and brake bits from the R/T trim to the V-6 to make it an entertaining sports coupe.
Out on the raceway’s road course, the V-6 SXT with the Super Track Pack was flat and maneuverable, easily able to keep its momentum between bends and impressively fast down the long straightaways. Steering feel is still a bit vague, with not as much feedback through the wheel and less effort required than the Challenger’s more agile competitors. Perhaps most impressively, one can option up a V-6 model to extremely well-equipped levels (including navigation, leather interior, automatic cruise control, 20-inch wheels and more) for just around $34,000, making it an interesting alternative to a Honda Accord EX-L V-6 coupe and a relative performance bargain.
All this performance potential is wrapped around a brand-new cockpit; the updated interior banishes the cheap, awful plastic of the 2014 model with the latest Chrysler shapes and electronics. It mostly works well — some testers were less than pleased with the new seats that felt unsupportive and the hard-plastic-molded bottleholders in the doors that rubbed against the passengers’ shins — and there’s genuine space for four people in there, five in a pinch.
The faux metal hexagonal trim looks a little sketchy, but the retro-style gauges make up for it, as does the excellent Chrysler Uconnect system available on all models. The variety of interior trim colors is also welcome. After years of somber grays for the Challenger, now you can get white, red, black or brown interiors depending on trim level. Outward visibility is better than in the Camaro and is comparable to the Mustang, which is to say not bad, but you’ll never forget you’re driving a big car, not with that long flat hood stretching out in front of you.
Some pundits say the Challenger’s heft and size are a detriment, that it’s not the light, tossable rear-wheel-drive car that a Hyundai Genesis Coupe or Mazda MX-5 Miata is. And they’re right; the Challenger is more of a boulevard cruiser than a track star. But with the latest updates to the big coupe, it no longer embarrasses itself when called on to negotiate twisty roads or keep up with traffic on a track day, and combined with its vastly upgraded interior and screaming bargain pricing, it looks as if Dodge has produced a worthy and differentiated alternative to the Mustang and Camaro.

Amy Schumer decided to play a hilarious prank on Kim Kardashian and Kanye West at the Time 100 Gala in New York City yesterday.
The event took place last night, and while we all thought the prank was classic, we're not so sure Kimye saw the funny side.
The comedian threw herself at the feet of the couple after discussing it with her publicist.
She told Time: "I saw them and said to my publicist, 'Can I pretend to fall?' and she said, 'I can't stop you.'"
According to Us Weekly, the famous pair did not fully appreciate the humour. Kim smiled a little, but Kanye remained completely serious.
Kim looked absolutely stunning at the event in a plunging, black Sophie Theallet gown.
However, this dress caused problems at the start of the night when a photographer accidentally stood on the back of it, almost causing it to rip. Luckily, the dress survived and Kim continued to look super glamorous.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has issued a 40-year license to Erie Boulevard Hydropower LP to operate six hydropower dams on the Oswegatchie River.
The license, which includes specific improvements to protect wildlife and increase recreational opportunities, covers dams at Browns Falls, Flat Rock, South Edwards, Oswegatchie, Heuvelton and Eel Weir. Erie Boulevard Hydropower is owned by Brookfield Renewable Energy.
The company is pleased by the issuance of the license, said Joanne S. Walsh, communications specialist with Brookfield.
Issuance of the new operating license completes a five-year process that will provide enough clean, renewable energy to power more than 22,000 homes while balancing the recreational and environmental needs of state, county and local stakeholders, she wrote in an email. Brookfield is proud of its presence on the Oswegatchie River and remains committed to being a responsible and engaged business leader in St. Lawrence County.
Brookfield has no other projects in the county pending re-licensure, she said.
The state Department of Environmental Conservation was among a number of environmental and government groups that were part of a settlement agreement reached with Brookfield last year as part of the relicensing.
Aquatic species will benefit from adjusted base flows at all six projects that will be closer to the natural flow of the river, DEC spokesman Stephen W. Litwhiler said.
All projects will eventually be upgraded to one-inch trash racks which will prevent larger fish from going through the hydro plants, he wrote in an email.
Upstream and downstream passages will be developed at Heuvelton and Eel Weir giving migratory fish, particularly lake sturgeon and American eel, access to more of the river.
The license requires loon nesting rafts on impoundments that are big enough for the birds to use.
A management plan is included to keep invasive species at bay so that the natural ecosystem remains for native fish and wildlife, he said. The license also calls for implementation of a plan to protect eagle and osprey nests.
Erie also proposes to construct or improve portage routes around each project dam, to improve two existing informal parking areas and provide a picnic table at Browns Falls, to install an accessible picnic table, parking space, seasonal floating dock, and an educational kiosk at Flat Rock, construct a day-use area with parking and two picnic tables, a foot trail and a car-top boat launch at South Edwards, and to build a boat launch and parking area at Heuvelton.
Erie applied for the license Dec. 30, 2010. The previous license, issued in 1983, expires Dec. 31.

How Much Are Braces in Arkansas?
Having a beautiful smile is something everyone desires. It boosts confidence and improves overall oral health. However, for those who need orthodontic treatment, the cost of braces can often be a concern. If you live in Arkansas and are wondering how much braces cost in the state, this article will provide you with the information you need.
The Cost of Braces in Arkansas
The cost of braces can vary depending on several factors, including the type of braces, the severity of the orthodontic issues, the duration of the treatment, and the location of the orthodontist. In Arkansas, the cost of braces typically ranges from $3,000 to $7,000.
Metal braces, the most traditional type of braces, are usually the most affordable option. They consist of metal brackets and wires and are known for their durability and effectiveness. On average, metal braces in Arkansas can cost between $3,000 and $5,500.
Ceramic braces, which are less noticeable than metal braces because the brackets are made of tooth-colored ceramic material, are a popular choice for those concerned about aesthetics. However, they tend to be slightly more expensive than metal braces. In Arkansas, ceramic braces can typically cost between $4,000 and $6,500.
Invisalign, a clear aligner system that is virtually invisible, is another popular option for orthodontic treatment. Invisalign is known for its comfort and convenience as the aligners can be easily removed for eating and cleaning. However, due to its advanced technology, Invisalign tends to be more expensive than traditional braces. In Arkansas, Invisalign treatment can range from $4,000 to $7,000.
Factors Affecting the Cost of Braces
As mentioned earlier, several factors can influence the cost of braces. The severity of the orthodontic issues plays a significant role in determining the overall cost. If a patient requires more complex treatment, such as significant jaw alignment or extensive tooth movement, the cost may be higher.
The duration of the treatment also affects the cost. Typically, longer treatment plans require more visits and adjustments, leading to higher costs. Additionally, the location of the orthodontist’s practice can impact the price. Orthodontists in larger cities or more affluent areas may charge higher fees compared to those in smaller towns.
Insurance Coverage for Braces
Dental insurance plans often provide coverage for orthodontic treatment, including braces. However, coverage varies depending on the insurance provider and the specific policy. Some insurance plans cover a percentage of the total cost, while others may provide a fixed amount.
Before starting treatment, it is essential to contact your insurance provider to understand the extent of coverage for orthodontic treatment. Additionally, many orthodontic practices offer flexible payment plans to help patients manage the cost of braces.
Q: At what age should I consider braces for my child?
A: The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children to have their first orthodontic evaluation by the age of seven. However, the appropriate age for braces depends on each individual’s dental development and needs. Your orthodontist will determine the best time to start treatment.
Q: How long does orthodontic treatment usually last?
A: The duration of orthodontic treatment varies depending on the complexity of the case. On average, treatment can last between one to three years. Your orthodontist will provide a more accurate estimate after evaluating your specific needs.
Q: Are there any alternatives to traditional braces?
A: Yes, there are alternatives to traditional braces, such as Invisalign or lingual braces. Invisalign uses clear aligners to gradually move teeth, while lingual braces are placed on the backside of the teeth, making them less visible.
Q: Are braces only for cosmetic purposes?
A: No, braces are not solely for cosmetic purposes. They can also address functional issues, such as misaligned bites and overcrowded teeth. Orthodontic treatment improves overall oral health by making it easier to clean teeth and reducing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
Q: Can adults get braces?
A: Absolutely! Orthodontic treatment is not limited to children and teenagers. Many adults choose to get braces to correct alignment issues and improve their smile. Adult orthodontic treatment has become increasingly popular in recent years.
In conclusion, the cost of braces in Arkansas can range from $3,000 to $7,000, depending on various factors. Metal braces are usually the most affordable option, while ceramic braces and Invisalign tend to be slightly more expensive. Insurance coverage and flexible payment plans can help manage the cost. It is essential to consult with an orthodontist to determine the best treatment option and get an accurate estimate for your specific needs. Remember, investing in a beautiful smile is an investment in your confidence and oral health.

Former Cambridge United favourite Kevin Roberts has been signed by Wrexham from Halifax for an undisclosed fee.
Right-back Roberts joined United in 2010 and helped the club clinch promotion from the Conference Premier via the play-offs and lift the FA Trophy in 2014 only to be released that summer.
He joined the Shaymen, who United had beaten in the play-off semi-finals, and had remained there since.
But after helping Halifax return to the top flight of the Vanarama National League following a season in National League North, Wrexham have splashed out for Roberts’ services on a two-year deal.
Roberts told the North Wales Daily Post: “I’ve played against Wrexham plenty of times, while at Chester and Cambridge.
“One season we (United) played four games against them, including the FA Cup ties.
“I have played against Wrexham on numerous occasions and that is one other thing that stood out for me, because I’ve always enjoyed playing there.
“It is one of the grounds you look forward to playing at, it is a great ground, and it will be nice to have the fans on my side rather than against me there for once.”


Do Speedos Have Rights?
Comptroller told me that the UCW-Wrestling videos I was directing you to in earlier posts had been removed due to violations of the YouTube Community Standards prohibiting "sexually explicit" material.
I would hardly call the footage sexually explicit, but then I am a man of debased values and an admitted perv. Sure, the sight of fit guys in Speedos wrestling turns me on, but by that same measure Tarzan and Mighty Mouse have turned me on at certain impressionable points in my life too--and I'm pretty sure they're not (yet) YouTaboo. Perhaps we should also ban footage of candles, champagne, and moonlight, while we're at it.
Don't Speedos have rights in this country? Aren't bulges protected forms of "free expression"? We live in a society where you can burn the flag, tell sensitive children that they or their friends, neighbors, and teachers are in danger of eternal hellfire, and brandish firearms in front of the President ... but evidence of anatomical correctness--even under Lycra with reinforced seams--is tantamount to pornography?
I have removed most of the affected embeds and links--in just a few cases removing the entire post--and will hunt down the ones I've overlooked sometime later. However, "G-rated" versions of these match previews began appearing under UCW's new profile theucwwrestling at the beginning of the month.

Last month, Battlecrank started a comment contest to recognize and reward high-effort and thought-provoking contributors. Three of the best comments are picked every month and winners receive their choice of a Champion Chest or Legendary Chest.
This time, we celebrate Ronald, danl9rm, and wuzzle!
Ronald commented on Here’s Proof Why 3v3 Is Better for Competitive Battlerite, expressing his skepticism and offering a counterpoint to the article’s conclusion. The comment was well-constructed enough that it could’ve been its own blog post, and he argued his points without any negativity sarcasm:
I think this article has an interesting premise, though I’m not sure how compelling its conclusion really is. The premise is that by observing the win rates of the top players, you can deduce how consistently they can win and measure the competitiveness of the game. In a perfectly consistent game with perfectly consistent players, the most skilled player of the game would have a 100% win rate by definition. Since “competitiveness” is a measure of how much skill affects the outcome of the match, I agree that observing win consistency of the top players can serve to measure the competitiveness of the game.
However, Battlerite is hardly a perfectly consistent game played by perfectly consistent players. In fact, no game is, since people are terribly inconsistent things. Certainly, this doesn’t mean that all analysis is useless, but there are a number of factors that should be controlled before trying to draw any conclusions. For example, you did not take into consideration casual matches when observing win rates. This makes sense, as players will play casual matches for a variety of reasons beyond simply trying to win (trying experimental strategies, new heroes, playing with less competitive friends, playing while drunk, etc.) which will reduce the consistency. Unless I’ve misunderstood, you only look at the win rates of the top players in solo queue where that player only accounts for 33-50% of the total players on the team. A team where at least half of its members are chosen randomly is hardly consistent. I’m not sure to what extent this skews the overall results, but it seems to me that observing the top teams would lead to more reliable results than only observing the top players.
Similarly, you point out that “any serious esports event increases the number of maps/matches played to determine a winner.” Clearly larger sample sizes will yield results that are more reliable. Considering this, it seems a bit dubious to be drawing conclusions from a comparison of 2v2 and 3v3 win rates when the sample size for 2v2 matches of every player you’ve included in the article is considerably larger than the sample size of their 3v3 matches. In fact, all of the players you’ve included have played at least 4x the amount of 2v2 matches as 3v3 matches, with one playing as many as 20x more 2v2 matches. Again, perhaps even with the disparity in sample sizes the analysis is “good enough,” but it serves to undermine the overall conclusion.
Moreover, this says nothing about the particular methodology that was used to determine the “top 100” players. Perhaps whichever ranking algorithm battlerite-stats.ru is using to select the top 100 players happens to reward players that perform better in 3v3 than 2v2. Perhaps the players in the “top 100” are simply better at 3v3 than 2v2. Maybe 2v2 has a higher skill ceiling than 3v3, such that the top players are not skilled enough at it to play consistently. Personally, these things seem unlikely to me, but they serve to illustrate some more things that the article doesn’t acknowledge or account for before drawing its conclusion.
Furthermore, the article doesn’t only attempt to establish that 3v3 is more competitive, but also that 3v3 is more fun and also that 3v3 is the best “primary mode” because it is both more fun and competitive. I do not believe that you say anything to suggest that modes that are more competitive are inherently more fun, nor anything to suggest that 3v3 is somehow more fun for other reasons. Additionally, I don’t think that it’s a given that more competitive games are even better for the competitive scene, as contradictory as that may sound. Consistency and competitiveness go hand in hand, but on the other side of the coin is uncertainty and uncertainty brings excitement. Excitement brings viewers and viewers bring cash, which serves as an incentive for players and the cycle continues. I could go on from here, but I think that’s beyond the scope of this response.
Overall, I do think this was an interesting article. Similar to “Will F2P Save Battlerite? Maybe We’re Asking the Wrong Question,” I’m always glad to see articles that attempt to use actual factual data to support a point. I obviously have a few issues with it, but to be fair, you can only do so much to tackle such a large and involved topic in a single ~1000 word article. Hope to see more.
danl9rm’s winning comment was posted on the same article, also showing skepticism of the article’s points and presenting a counter-argument that could explain the same data while arriving at a different conclusion:
I think you’re missing a huge correlation that essentially explains away every conclusion you’ve made: # of games played in each queue.
Every one of your examples has more games played in 2v2 than 3v3. If you do some more digging through the numbers, you’ll see it’s very common, almost universal even, for a player’s winrate to go down with # of games played.
This makes sense because even if you can climb to GC with 100% winrate, you must then face many more other GC players than you did while climbing. The more you play after your climb, the less those initial “free wins” count in the statistics. Most, no, almost all, GC level 3v3 teams only climb to GC, if they ever make it past Champion due to queue times, and then stop playing for the season.
Moreover, many higher level 3v3 teams tend not to play as much until later in the season. This is harder to prove, but I’ve noticed the creme de la creme are busy climbing solo or even 2’s at the very start of the season, when there is 0 rank inflation and climbing is the most difficult.
Also of interest here is how many high level players have “mains” whose winrates are lower than that other multiple other champions, even with 100s of games played on these off-champs. I would be loathe to debate, however, that their skill level was higher with these other champions.
Lastly, it’s also possible that when high level players gather two of their buddies vs just one, that their aggregate skill level is much higher compared to other teams that also have to come up with three players. In short, high level players may have better winrates on their 3’s teams compared to their 2’s because everyone else’s 3’s team is worse. This doesn’t even take into account the tournament level experience high level 3v3 teams have over and above the general population.
As for wuzzle, his helpful comment was posted to 5 Tips for Making Solo Queue More Enjoyable, where he provides additional thoughts and tips for dealing with the frustrations of solo queue:
I can stomach the solo Q with one mindset: I am the sole reason we win or lose. Even if my teammates play bad, my enemies all ride lions. I can make the difference. If I can’t I don’t deserve the win.
It’s a bit drastic as sometimes you really lose games because one of your mates trolls and spins into the enemies without doing a thing. To compensate for that is quite unmanageable and you can’t fully compensate assholery. Then again, take the big picture. Your enemies you just lost to most likely had the same experiences as you did. If happenstance is not too far off you won’t suffer any more “Queue luck” than all others.
Lastly it also helps to sometimes take a break from Solo Q to breathe some fresh air. Yesterday I was quite a bit frustrated as I could not hold up my mindset as I felt I played my part of the matches, regularly outperforming both of my mates by factors of 4:1 and still losing. I started just short of Dia 1 and ended up bottom Dia 4 and was in a downward spiral. Then I queued up with two people from my friendlist and we won quite a few games in the 3v3 team queue. A few of those against triple lion riding overlords.
Obviously that greatly improved my mood.
And if everything goes to hell: Eat a Pizza. Read a good Book (Suggestion for Fantasy: Malazan Book of the Fallen) and do something else entirely. A walk through the woods or the park can do wonders, too. After that you may be ready to carry again 8)
Thanks all for your high-quality contributions! The contest continues into November.

Italy's song was decent, glad it won over the France and Switzerland, neither of which I liked.
My favourites were
- Serbia, Greece, Lithuania (I think) - for the catchy, dance-y stuff that Eurovision does so well
- Finland - for the nu metal nostalgia
- Ukraine - for the atmosphere, and generally just a great song

What does EPS stand for satellite?
The primary role of the Electrical Power System (EPS) is to supply other systems in the satellite with the necessary electrical power to operate effectively. The source of the power is the energy collected from the solar panels which are exposed to direct solar radiation or to indirect radiation from albedo.
How the satellite and power system is related?
Description. Satellites harness power from solar panels to power spacecrafts. This high voltage supply needs to be stored and converted for all the onboard electronics. Our large portfolio of space-qualified devices and reference designs help you maximize your system performance.
What is a power conditioning module?
Power Conditioning Module Downstream of the PGM is a PCM that functions as an interface between the fuel cell stack and the load (Figure 1). It has several major functions. First, it converts the stack DC output voltage (unregulated) to the customer-required DC input voltage (regulated).
What is the power source on a satellite?
Spacecraft that orbit Earth, called satellites, are close enough to the Sun that they can often use solar power. These spacecraft have solar panels which convert the Sun’s energy into electricity that powers the spacecraft. The electricity from the solar panels charges a battery in the spacecraft.
What is EPS in CubeSat?
Electrical Power Supply (EPS) The Electrical Power Supply, or EPS of the CubeSat is composed by three modules which are the PCC (Power Control Circuit), the PV (photovoltaic panel) and the BAT (Battery). The role of the EPS is to generate, store and distribute the electricity produced by the solar panels.
What is EPS inverter?
EPS is the fire emergency power supply, and UPS is the uninterruptible power supply.
How much power does a satellite use?
between 1 and 1.5 kilowatts
Today’s satellites are frugal with power, which is usually supplied by arrays of solar cells. A typical communications satellite needs between 1 and 1.5 kilowatts of electricity, and the space shuttle manages on 12.5 kilowatts.
What are the two important ways of getting electricity supply in a satellite?
Most common source of power in satellites is solar. Solar panels use sunlight to generate electricity required to power the satellite. Photovoltaic modules use light energy (photons) from the Sun to generate electricity through the photovoltaic effect.
What is the purpose of a power conditioner?
A power conditioner is a device used to protect sensitive loads by smoothing out voltage fluctuations such as spikes, transients and electrical noise. It can be electronic or transformer-based.
Is a power conditioner necessary?
So do you need a power conditioner for a home theater? Yes, a power conditioner is a vital piece of equipment that filters out the “dirty” power and keeps your expensive equipment safer and functioning more efficiently. It helps to ensure that your equipment lasts for as long as possible.
How much power can a satellite generate?
Over the course of one orbit, the average power generated a little less than half of the maximum value, around 2.5 kW. The spacecraft must spend some part of its orbit in the Earth’s shadow, and for that time there will be no solar generation.
How much power does it take to power a satellite?

Google Map with its new feature can now display Live Traffic information. Not only it displays traffic information but also gives an accurate forecast of future traffic on a particular road/route. It’s known as Google Map Live and presently it is available for some popular cities around the world.
How Google Maps Live works?
According to the official Google Blog, Google Maps gathers traffic data from users who use Google Maps for Mobile with GPS enabled on their phone. The raw data is then combined together and send back to the users for free. This awesome feature is known as “Crowdsourcing”. Apart from using this feature, Google Maps also collate data from multiple sources like the transportation department, private third parties and etc.
How accurate is Google Maps Live?
Traffic information on Google Maps is updated every minute. But, the actual accuracy depends on number of users using Google Map for mobile. If the numbers of user are less for it to create minimum threshold accuracy then it will not display any traffic data. So in general the more the users are the more accurate is Google Map Live.
Which cities are covered?
Google Maps live Traffic is available across 1000s cities worldwide. In USA this service is available in more than 70 cities, UK and Europe is also covered. In Asia it is available in China, India, Thailand and Japan. To know whether your city is covered or not, you can visit this link – link on Google Maps.
What is Anonymous location collection from Smartphone?
If you are a Smartphone user, who uses Google Maps quiet frequently, then you should be aware that your phone is sending anonymous bit of data back to Google. The data collected from Smartphone does not require GPS activations. This data is then compared with thousands of other data, collected from different Smartphone users in and around your location to provide accurate traffic information. The more the data the more accurate information is provided.
Is it safe for Google to know my location?
Yes, it is. As per Google the data collected is protected with privacy. The data is first made anonymous before it is fed to the server. If, from any particular location Google gets large amount of data, then it combines all the data together, making it hard to distinguish the source.
To know how Google maps help your business then read the post “How can google maps help your business?“.
Google also allows user to opt-out from this service. If any user wants to opt-out from this service, Google will instantly stop collecting data from that user. For more information on how to opt-out? Please visit this link –here.
In the end I would like to add that Google Maps Live Traffic service is a friendly add on service, to take us out of the misery, which we face when we are stuck in the traffic. Not only it is helping us to reach our destination, but also providing us useful information about traffic. I hope this post is helpful and informative. If in case I have missed out on anything related to this topic then please leave your valuable comment.

In preparation for the opening of the season in May, Wright Ferry’s mansion has appointed new CEO James Archer Abbott.
Abbott comes to the historic site of Columbia from the Lewis Historical Society in Lewis, Delaware.
He was curator or director of the Baltimore Museums; Washington, DC; and the Hudson Valley in New York, according to a press release. Other past Abbott positions include director and curator of the Johns Hopkins Evergreen University Museum and Library, curator of the Woodrow Wilson House and curator of decorative arts for the Baltimore Museum of Art.
Abbott has written several books, including his latest, 2021, “Designing Camelot: Rebuilding the Kennedy White House and His Legacy,” co-authored with Elaine Rice Bachmann.
In a press release, the abbot says the mansion “celebrates the colonial design and craftsmanship of the 18th century, as well as an exceptional collection of fine and decorative arts. Immediate grounds provide an important context for the development of American trade and private enterprise.
“Rarely is there an opportunity to celebrate and engage in history at the level provided by Wright Ferry’s mansion,” says Abbott, adding that he hopes to create a visitor center and training gallery in the building adjacent to the mansion.
The colonial mansion was built in 1738 for the original owner Susanna Wright, a Quaker poet, businesswoman and scholar. It is unique in Pennsylvania for its early 18th-century architecture, furniture, and arts and crafts.
The mansion is located at 38 S. Second St., Colombia, maintained by the Louise Steinman von Hess Foundation.

EDMONTON — Opposition parties blasted the notion of appointing unelected members to the new Tory cabinet as undemocratic Monday and said the idea shows the weak hand incoming premier Jim Prentice has been dealt after winning the Progressive Conservative leadership on the weekend. Speaking to reporters at Government House before meeting with Premier Dave Hancock, Prentice said he hoped to soon be sworn in as premier along with his new cabinet, possibly as early as next Monday.
Recently, Toronto-based Lamb Development Corp. announced it would be creating an orchard between the two condo towers on 12th Avenue, next to the Stampede grounds.
EDMONTON — The contest to determine Alberta’s 16th premier is in its final week, but Wednesday is the last day Albertans can purchase Progressive Conservative membership cards to cast a vote on the weekend. Sales of the $10 memberships are cut off at midnight, with online and telephone voting proceeding Friday and Saturday to choose the next Tory leader and de facto premier.
Deng Duot has a lot of influences. That’s because the Calgary painter has lived a lot of lives. There was his childhood, growing up in what is now South Sudan in the 1980s. He was one of the Lost Boys, Sudanese youth who were displaced or orphaned during that country’s 22-year second civil war. Then, there were years spent studying to become a physician in Cuba, before Duot emigrated to Canada in the late ’90s.

Libraries are “just as relevant” to university education today as they were before the world went digital, Mount Royal University’s president says. During Tuesday’s ceremonial groundbreaking for the school’s new 16,000-square-metre, stand-alone library, Mount Royal president David Docherty said the wealth of knowledge, information and data available to students is “no easier to navigate now that it’s digital.”
With progressive votes expected to be up for grabs in the next provincial election, candidates vying to lead the New Democrats are focusing on expanding their seats beyond the party’s Edmonton base. The NDP traditionally had difficulty grabbing seats in southern Alberta, but with the ruling Tories labouring with controversy and the Wildrose Party seen as a right-wing choice, leadership hopeful Rachel Notley believes there’s plenty of opportunity for her party to gain ground.
Finance Minister Doug Horner clearly had responsibility for the provincial government’s aircraft fleet when it was used inappropriately by former premier Alison Redford, says Tory leadership candidate Jim Prentice. Although Horner has claimed he was only responsible for air fleet policy and the bookings of planes, Prentice said in an interview Wednesday he believes the buck stopped with him.

Since its inception a few years ago, the Mount Royal Conservatory’s Wyatt Artist in Residence Concert Series has held a three-concert series during the winter months. Recently, the support for the series has (happily) increased, and it now is possible for the Conservatory to hold a fourth concert, a concert held during the summertime Morningside Music Bridge program. This year this concert was given by Canada’s New Orford String Quartet, beginning a week in which the quartet will be in residence at the Conservatory.
The Wildrose and the Progressive Conservatives were neck-and-neck in fundraising during the spring, as Alberta’s political climate shifted significantly with two leadership races kicking into gear. New financial documents released Wednesday by Elections Alberta show the Opposition Wildrose raked in $680,740 during the second quarter of 2014, while the long-governing PCs took in $637,124 during the April-to-June period.

One of the best things about travelling abroad is the chance to see what other great cities around the world have done to improve their urban environment — both to gain inspiring ideas, as well as to learn from their mistakes.
Calgary’s urban sprawl is unique in that it’s happening both at the edge of the city as well as all around its downtown.
Administrators at Mount Royal University knew for years about bullying allegations against prominent criminology professor John Winterdyk but did little to address the issue, an instructor who works with him said Thursday. Winterdyk, 60, now faces a charge of forcible confinement after a female colleague in the justice studies department accused him of trapping her in her office and verbally assaulting her for two hours in 2012.
The formal submission to the City of Calgary for the massive mixed-used development of Currie Barracks is almost complete and developers are holding a public open house next week to present it to the public. The new plan by Canada Lands Company and Embassy Bosa Inc. calls for 5,600 residential units on the site, up from 3,200 originally planned. There will eventually be 11,000 residents in the community which has increased from the 7,000 in the original plans.

Fifty Shades of Grey star Jamie Dornan is trialling another rugged look in BBC2 drama Death and Nightingales, from The Fall writer Allan Cubitt.
A “gripping drama” based on Eugene McCabe’s book of the same name, the show takes place in one 24-hour period in 1885 and has a “twisted love triangle” at its heart.
Set in the Irish countryside, the three-parter sees Beth Winters trying to escape her limited life and strict, protestant stepfather Billy, with the help of the charming Liam Ward.
When is Death and Nightingales on TV?
Death and Nightingales airs on Wednesdays at 9pm on BBC2.
RadioTimes.com has launched a new campaign – Women’s Words – celebrating female screenwriters and asking why there aren’t more women’s voices on British TV
Read more: www.radiotimes.com/womenswords
Who’s in the Death and Nightingales cast?
Dornan, who played serial killer Paul Spector in The Fall, has been cast in the part of Liam Ward.
He’s joined by Matthew Rhys (The Americans), who plays Billy, Ann Skelly (Red Rock) as Beth Winters, and is reunited with his The Fall co-star Valene Kane, who plays Beth’s Catholic mother, Catherine.
What is Death and Nightingales about?
If you thought this might be a sweet, coming-of-age story, think again — the synopsis sounds pretty ominous: “As decades of pain and betrayal finally build to a devastating climax, Death and Nightingales is a powerful and gripping drama that follows a woman struggling to control her own destiny and will illuminate tensions that tear both families and nations apart.”
Although when a show has ‘death’ in the title, that might be an initial clue.
“It’s a complex novel that has at its heart a kind of twisted love story and triangle,” explains writer and director Cubitt.
“Billy Winters is… a very troubled man,” Rhys adds, “who lost his wife ten years ago in a horrific accident and raised his step-daughter on his own, sadly we’re not quite sure when, but his feelings for his step-daughter have crossed over into a slightly dark place.”
On joining the cast, Dornan says: “I’m thrilled to be reunited with Allan and his brilliant scripts to play such an intriguing character like Liam Ward.”
Skelly added: “Playing such a strong character as Beth Winters is truly an actor’s dream, and a fantastically intense challenge to be given the opportunity to play. And to get to work with such brilliant actors like Matthew and Jamie, and a director like Allan Cubitt, is just surreal to me. I can’t wait to start!”
Where was Death and Nightingales filmed?
Set in County Fermanagh, the landscape is almost its own character in both Cubitt’s BBC2 series and McCabe’s original novel.
“Beth has a huge attachment to the land,” Ann Skelly told RadioTimes.com, “because I think she associates [it] with her mother… That becomes a huge conflict for Beth in the plan she and Liam hatch together, because Billy is also associated with that [the land], and I think Beth has a huge tie and bond with Billy, even if they don’t like each other sometimes.”
So when it came to filming, “half the trick to pulling [the series] off was finding locations that would really work,” according to Cubitt, who was keen “not make it dark, cold, Northern Ireland”.
The Winters’ home, where Beth and Billy live along with their servant Mercy, was mostly filmed in Springhill House Moneymoore. The seventeenth-century Northern Ireland property, owned by the National Trust, was closed for much of May and June to accommodate the show’s filming schedule.
Filming took place across a range of locations, including Myra Castle in Strangford, Downpatrick, and the National Trust-owned Mid Island, near Portaferry.

Of course, they have little choice, but the Fed said it would keep the stance of policy “until it is confident that the economy has weathered recent events and is on track to achieve its” goals. This does fit into the “bigger is better “category but probably a day late and a dollar short.
The cut to zero not a surprise but for timing the market went into shrug mode as, for the most part, this was priced in the cake.
The asset purchases are a surprise from Friday, but not really.
The Fed can (and likely will) increase the limit as time and circumstances evolve. Which suggests they (Fed) do have what’s left of the markets’ back.
Dollar swap line = Global coordination
Not a surprise as smaller central banks is fraying at the edges due to domestic US dollar funding strains. But the key takeaway here is very positive as that Fed announcement shows global cooperation and that is one of the few bright points today. Still, the mad dash for US dollars will likely move like a wrecking ball through much of EM FX.
Reserve requirements to zero
This change looks super technical and well beyond my pay grade.
Expect the Fed to remain at the ZLB well into 2022
As we enter the worst-case scenario black hole, the US economy will contract significantly in Q2, and with it, a massive chunk of global GDP will evaporate into thin air.
So what next?
I’m heading to Tops to stock up on all my UK -US -NZD and AUS import items before they run out or get marked up 100 %. And then hoping the wise among the G-7 leaders decide to close this mess down for a while as the market is in bad need of a long time out.

Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
is a string of characters that unambiguously identifies a particular resource. To guarantee uniformity, all URIs follow a predefined set of syntax rules, but also maintain extensibility through a separately defined hierarchical naming scheme (e.g.
Such identification enables interaction with representations of the resource over a network, typically the World Wide Web, using specific protocols. Schemes specifying a concrete syntax and associated protocols define each URI. The most common form of URI is the Uniform Resource Locator (URL), frequently referred to informally as a web address. More rarely seen in usage is the Uniform Resource Name (URN), which was designed to complement URLs by providing a mechanism for the identification of resources in particular namespaces.
Uniform Resource Locator (URL)
colloquially termed a web address, is a reference to a web resource that specifies its location on a computer network and a mechanism for retrieving it. A URL is a specific type of Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), although many people use the two terms interchangeably. URLs occur most commonly to reference web pages (http), but are also used for file transfer (ftp), email (mailto), database access (JDBC), and many other applications.
Most web browsers display the URL of a web page above the page in an address bar. A typical URL could have the form
http://www.example.com/index.html, which indicates a protocol (
http), a hostname (
www.example.com), and a file name (
Uniform Resource Locators were defined in RFC 1738 in 1994 by Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web, and the URI working group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), as an outcome of collaboration started at the IETF Living Documents birds of a feather session in 1992.
The format combines the pre-existing system of domain names (created in 1985) with file path syntax, where slashes are used to separate directory and filenames. Conventions already existed where server names could be prefixed to complete file paths, preceded by a double slash (
Berners-Lee later expressed regret at the use of dots to separate the parts of the domain name within URIs, wishing he had used slashes throughout, and also said that, given the colon following the first component of a URI, the two slashes before the domain name were unnecessary.

8,000 chickens culled after dioxin found in Germany
Chicken farms in the western states were shut down on Monday, meaning they are no longer allowed to sell their products.
Share via Email
BERLIN—More than 1,000 chicken farms across Germany have been banned from selling their products and over 8,000 chickens were culled after cancer-causing dioxin was found in chicken chow.
The German news agency DAPD reported on Monday that prosecutors were investigating chicken food producers over having used ingredients contaminated with dioxin.
Chicken farms in the western states of Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia and Schleswig-Holstein were shut down on Monday, meaning they are no longer allowed to sell their products.
In Soest, in western Germany, authorities ordered over 8,000 chickens culled. In eastern Germany authorities said that at least 55 tons of suspect chow had already been fed to the chickens.

ABI System 100 from boso
The ABI System 100 is an innovative blood pressure monitor by the brand boso. ABI System 100 fills an important gap in cardiovascular diagnostics by determining the ankle brachial index, which is of great significance in predicting heart attacks, strokes, and mortality. The device’s measurement is fast, easy, and precise, ensuring that even asymptomatic patients can receive a diagnosis. In addition, the system automatically transmits further important parameters of the cardiovascular system, e. g. single values of blood pressure on arms and legs. Critical values are highlighted by color coding.
- For detecting PAOD (peripheral arterial occlusive disease)
- Calculation of ankle brachial index
- Fluctuations are reduced to a minimum through an intelligent inflating system and regulated exhaust speed
- Easy handling - also suited for doctor’s assistants
- Transfer of values to a PC via USB port for automatic calculation of the ABI by the application software
- Material (velcro cuffs): nylon
- Measurements: L 290 x W 460 x H 83 mm
- Weight: 3.8 kg (without power supply unit)
- Available in 2 different versions: with and without pulse wave measurement
From a special examination to a routine check
The ankle brachial index (ABI) is currently determined by using the Doppler ultrasound method, which is not only very time consuming but also requires extensive experience in order to offer reliable results. That is why, even on risk groups such as smokers, diabetics, and elderly people, an initial vascular examination is performed so late that an existing PAOD can already lead to symptomatic or asymptomatic diseases of the cardiovascular system. The ABI System 100 provides an acceleration of the process with high-quality results, so that this complex examination method can turn into a routine check.
This measuring method with ABI System 100 achieves its speed through the simultaneous oscillometric blood pressure measurement on all four extremities, which prevents falsifications through blood pressure variability. The ABI System simplifies PAOD examinations to such an extent, that they do not have to occupy the doctor’s valuable time anymore, but can also be carried out by other medical staff members.
The powerful software of ABI System 100 allows for a reliable evaluation of examination data. This data can then automatically be matched with the examined patient via the software. Apart from the ankle brachial index, the software also provides further important parameters of the cardiovascular system and the GDT interface enables the transmission of data to the practice EDP system.
The ABI System 100 is optionally available with the possibility for measuring the ba pulse wave velocity. Measuring the pulse wave velocity can help in diagnosing an arterial stiffness, which increases through advanced arteriosclerosis and causes an increase of the pulse wave velocity.
- Measuring principle: oscillometric
- Systole measuring range: 60 - 240 mmHg
- Diastole measuring range: 40 - 140 mmHg
- Cuff pressure: 0 - 300 mmHg
- System requirements: graphic card, 20 MB free hard disk space, USB port, operating system Microsoft Windows XP or higher
- 1 boso ABI System 100 in the selected version
- 2 nylon velcro cuffs for arms (22 - 42 cm)
- 2 nylon velcro cuffs for legs (18 - 38 cm)
- 1 power supply unit
- 1 USB connection cable
- 1 evaluation software boso profilmanager XD

Engine mounts play a significant role in your car’s handling, performance, and comfort, yet they are an often overlooked item until they fail completely. Factory BMW engine mounts utilize rubber and metal components, and some are even liquid-filled in some applications. These materials are used to minimize engine vibration and provide the most comfortable ride possible.
BMWs are the Ultimate Driving Machine, and many of their customers value a smooth ride just as much as they value performance, so BMW engineers provide the best of both worlds. Just like any other rubber-based parts, such as belts, gaskets, coolant hoses, and tires, your engine mounts will eventually need to be replaced. Due to their location between the engine and the frame of the car, engine mounts are subject to not only stress but also intense heating and cooling cycles which will eventually lead to the need to replace them. Here are five signs to look for and some of the best reasons why you should replace your engine mounts.
If you spend any time under the hood of your car, you might begin to notice that your engine is leaning to one side more than usual or that your engine is sitting lower in the engine bay than normal. You might even begin to feel a slight vibration while your car is running. This is a telltale sign that your engine mounts are starting to collapse. Engine mounts on BMWs produced over the last few decades (E36, E46, E39 models, etc.) were made to allow them to collapse and shrink in size as they fail. This can be a gradual change that might be hard to notice at first, or they can go quickly, but when you notice it, it’s time to replace those old factory mounts before they fail completely.
The most significant sign that you need to replace your engine mounts is if the rubber portion of the mount has separated from the metal part and has completely broken apart. The symptoms that point to this happening are unusual vibrations coming from the drive train at idle or under acceleration and seeing the engine move back and forth in the engine bay when applying throttle. Sometimes the vibrations can even mimic other serious symptoms like a misfire caused by a bad coil pack and can even cause a knocking sound that mimics low oil pressure. The engine moving back and forth more than it is supposed to also adds stress and tension on parts like rubber coolant and power steering lines which could also fail if subjected to too much movement and stress. If one or both engine mounts have failed completely, you will literally feel and need to replace them as soon as possible.
If you are doing any major service work on your BMW, it is worth taking a look at your engine mounts to see if they have collapsed, show any signs of wear, or if the rubber portion of the mount is starting to crack. Many suspension parts on BMWs utilize rubber bushings, and they suffer the same fate as factory engine mounts. All of these parts are under a lot of stress, and while they might not all wear out at the same time, if they are the same age or are original factory parts that are years or even decades old, they might begin to fail one after another. If you are already replacing and upgrading other worn parts on your car, especially suspension parts like control arm bushings or subframe bushings, it might be time to replace your engine and transmission mounts too, and for the best reason possible, to save money! You can purchase multiple parts in a combo from a reputable site like Condor Speed Shop that will save you money.
Wanting to drive your BMW aggressively in a safe environment is a good sign, and also a sign that you need to replace our engine mounts. If you are looking for an upgrade that will aid in handling and performance driving, then replacing your stock engine mounts with upgraded Polyurethane or UHMW (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene) mounts are one of the best pieces of motorsports hardware that you will find. Polyurethane mounts available from Condorspeedshop.com are 30% stiffer than factory mounts, but they still provide the comfort that you will want in a daily driver. Mounts and bushings made from UHMW provide even more stiffness and are some of the most popular BMW Performance Upgrades you can get. Upgrading your engine mounts will increase responsiveness dramatically. If you are looking for that extra edge at an autocross or an occasional track day, UHMW engine mounts available from Condor Speed Shop are the way to go.
BMWs are in their natural habitat on the race track. BMW race cars can be found at tracks across the country every weekend, and they all have BMW racing parts under the hood. If you are building a racing BMW or purchasing one of unknown build quality, it means that you will have to replace your engine mount with upgraded part . Stock rubber engine mounts are comfortable for the street, but will provide way too much movement on the race track. Upgrading to UHMW engine and transmission mounts (and suspension bushings) is a no-brainer for a track car. For specific applications it might even be necessary to upgrade to solid aluminum engine and transmission mounts, use engine riser mounts, install engine mount heat sleeves to protect from intense exhaust heat, or use mounts specifically made for an engine swap. The good news is that Condor Speed Shop offers all these parts and mounts for multiple BMW models, so whatever your plans are for your BMW racing car, you will be able to make it happen with quality made-in-the-USA parts that a knowledgeable enthusiast can install themselves.
Whether your engine mounts on your weekend driver have collapsed, or you plan on racing for 12 Hours at Sebring International Raceway, Condor Speed Shop has the replacement engine mounts for you. Our website features all of the parts mentioned above and offers interesting articles, “how-to” videos, and great photography of some impressive BMWs. Condor Speed Shop will help to keep your car the Ultimate Driving Machine for years to come!
