In our day to day lives, cars are incredibly crucial. They help us get right where we want to go, be it for work, travel and play. Cars not just cater to necessity but there are some ostentatious luxury cars available for sale. One such variant is the sports car. These mean machines come with sleek designs, flashy colors and powerful engines. Designed to be a notch higher than your average car, these sports car are usually more aerodynamic, compact and deliver an exceptional performance.
There are some sports cars today that can even compete with the race cars. Though there is no practical reason for the preference of these cars, such cars are usually bought by those who have excess cash to buy them and display them as a symbol of their social status and wealth. But what really makes these cars special is their engine. So, let’s take a quick look at 10 facts about the engine of your sports car.
The stereotype associated with the sports car isn’t always true
Every time you hear the roar of an engine or the shriek of the tires, you might have looked around and seen a brat showing off his fancy sports car. However, this isn’t the truth about the sports car engine. Every engine, even the one in your sedan, has the capacity to produce a thunderous noise. David Warner, who works with company that provides assignment help Australia service owns a Ferrari and says that the softer the engine is, better is the quality of the car. Though soft-spoken, they have incredible power but that is depicted in the rumble of the car and not in the noise that it produces.
The Bugatti Veyron comes with a super-hot engine!
Albert while not busy in completing “write my essay” queries of students enjoys long ride and says that his favorite sports car is the Bugatti Veyron. It is a powerful car which comes equipped with a quad-turbo engine and sixteen cylinders. This makes it one heluva fast car.
But make sure you never run the engine to its full tilt since that can be pretty dangerous and might lead to the melting of the car around it. To ensure that this never happens, the car has 12 radiators installed in the car whereas your usual cars have only one radiator to keep the engine cool.
The 2nd most powerful engine in the world
When people talk about the most powerful engine, the most obvious choice is the Bugatti Veyron. Of course, when an engine has 12 radiators, it is supposed to the best, isn’t it? However, you’ll be surprised to know that Bugatti is third in line when we consider the most power packed engines for the sports cars.
However, you cannot even imagine which one comes at the second spot. It is the Koenigsegg One which is manufactured by a small company from Sweden. This car has a 1,341 horsepower which is the reason behind its magnificent speed.
The most powerful engine in the world
Venom F5 has the most powerful engine in the world. With its engine, you can reach a speed of over 300 miles per hour, with which, you can get around 239 mph in less than 30 seconds. Sounds impossible? Well, it is true. The car comes packed with a Hennessey brand twin Turbo V8 engine which helps it achieve 600 horsepower.
Hennessey special vehicles
Barner working as a research paper writing service provider, owns Audi A8 share his experience confirming that if you purchase a sports car and it doesn’t deliver an experience as imagined, you don’t have to settle for it. Hennessey Special Vehicles is a company which is based in Texas and they have made it their business to provide the customers with modified high-powered cars. If you want your ordinary car to deliver like a Super car or even a hyper car, you must get in touch with them and they’ll help you with your needs. Hennessey Special Vehicles take pride in their ability to modify any engine to assure that it works to its best potential, and even beyond, sometimes.
Most of the engines are located in the same place
Usually, all the sports cars are designed creatively. They come with luxury interiors and exteriors along with some interesting door mechanics. Though, the sports manufacturing companies wish to be creative, there is one component that remains consistent and that is engine placement. Since your sports car are supposed to drive faster than your average car, most of these cars have their engines placed in the front half of the car.
From there, the engine is connected to the rear wheels. In the usual cars, the engine is connected to the front. This is what assures the right balance backed with a smooth pleasurable ride. There are some sports cars that also have their engines placed in the rear half or the center of the vehicle for the same purpose. Shane a blogger says just like checking DigitalOcean review is important before you buy hosting in the same manner checking reviews for the cars is important. So, read all the reviews and decide which sports car you want to buy.
Tiny but speedy
The tiny Honda S500 was released in the year 1963. It is a small two-seater sports car which was the first car made by Honda (a transition from their motorcycles). This car had a minuscule 531cc engine nut that didn’t make it a pushover. It was super-fast car and was capable of delivering 44 bhp at 8,000 rpm and that wasn’t even its fastest which was the 9,500 rpm. Though it had a small engine, it was still capable of delivering a speed equivalent to that of a sports car.
Engines aren’t always anti-environment
Now, there is another stereotype associated with the roar of the sports car engine that is these cars burn tons of gas and emit harmful fumes in the air. Though this might have been true about some cars in the past, in the recent times, the cars are cleaner and advanced.
Further, in today’s times, Michel having 5 luxury cars in his garage and doing data science certification online says that the powerful engine of the cars now run on cleaner fuels, electricity or sometimes even a blend of the two. These cars are mostly eco-friendly and yet happen to be more sleek and faster than the non-eco-friendly counterparts.
Sports car engines are built with safety in mind
It is often believed that the sports cars have a natural inherent legacy of being dangerous. Of course, there have been instances of the sports car crashing, but that in no way means that these cars aren’t safe. It is true that the built and the make of the sports car is different from the normal cars but that means that the car is capable of handling exposure different from what an average car is capable of handling.
Though, the built can also be a contributor to its inexperienced drivers crashing, there is also an important safety feature provided in the sports car engines. The fuel tanks of the cars expose the gasoline inside the car to only little air when transporting to the engine. This fact about the sports car makes it less likely to explode or crash and a lot safer than the normal cars.
Early sports cars struggled
For some of you, it might be surprising to know that even though these sports cars are popular today, the engines of the sports car in comparison to the engines over the period, have mostly been unpopular with the people.
In the year, 1936, the T-type MG Midget was released in the market. The car had a phenomenal engine which helped it go over a speed of 100 miles per hour. This was pretty fast for that time. Moreover, this car had an engine which was quieter than the usual cars yet it wasn’t popular in its time. Robert who is an accounting homework help provider and enjoys ride at Mustang says this didn’t dishearten the makers of the car and they persisted until their car was successful in establishing a place for itself in the market.
These are the top 10 most interesting and crucial facts about the sports car engine. If you have more facts to add to this list, do let us know about it in the comment section below.

Kamado Joe is an American company specializing in grills and tools for grilling. Born from a need to have access to top-tier grilling equipment, Kamado Joe offers an extensive line of accessories. These include thermometers to assist with the precise cooking of the Kamado Joe ceramic grills. A Kamado Joe thermometer will require calibration for accuracy.
The easiest way to calibrate a Kamado Joe thermometer is to place it in boiling water. If it does not show the temperature at which water boils (100C/212F), it will require calibration. The screw on the back of the thermometer can be turned until it shows an accurate reading.
If you have a Kamado Joe grill, you may either have a Kamado Joe thermometer included in one, or you may purchase one separately. Ensuring the accuracy of the thermometer can be done through calibration.
How to Calibrate Kamado Joe Thermometer?
Kamado Joe has an extensive line of grills and accessories, with the star of the line being the ceramic grill. Options like the Classic and the Big Joe are some of the most popular versions on the market.
Most Kamado Joe grill options include a handy dome thermometer on the lid, like the KJ-T23. Kamado Joe thermometers ensure a consistent temperature reading across models, which will help get the best grilling results. To achieve this consistency, the thermometer should be calibrated whenever it shows a disparity.
Owners of Kamado Joe grills will notice the success of their dome thermometers, no matter whether they opt for the Classic or Big Joe versions. Dome thermometers work by reading the grill temperature as well as the air temperature inside it, which can cause fluctuations. This is one of the reasons that make calibrating essential.
What Is the Best Way to Calibrate a Kamado Joe Thermometer?
While there are a few different methods to calibrate a Kamado Joe thermometer, there is a traditional tried and tested one. This method tends to give the best results when calibrating and requires a very straightforward process.
Here are the steps to follow when calibrating a Kamado Joe thermometer:
- Open the Kamado Joe grill and remove the dome thermometer by loosening the nut that keeps it secured to the lid. Make sure to keep a hold of the washer around the nut while you do so. This is a quicker step than it may seem because the nut is shorter than it appears.
- Put a pot on the stove and wait for it to boil. Once it boils, the temperature of the water will hit 100c.
- When the water boils, take its temperature with the thermometer by carefully placing it in the water. If it reads 100c, it is accurately calibrated, and you can ignore the next steps. If it does not, it requires calibration, and you should continue with the process.
- If the temperature reading is inaccurate, make a note of it. This will help you know how much it needs to be calibrated.
- Grab a flat head screwdriver and turn the screw on the back of the thermometer until it reads 100c when you do the boiling water test once more.
With these easy steps, your Kamado Joe thermometer will be accurately calibrated. Remember to use tongs and heat-resistant gloves when handling the thermometer in boiling water.
How Do I Know if My Kamado Joe Thermometer Is Accurate?
Once you have undertaken the method of calibrating your Kamado Joe thermometer, you will want to check that it provides accurate readings. To check this, you can use a wireless probe like the Meater to establish if there is a big discrepancy between the ambient temperature and the Kamado Joe thermometer.
If the discrepancy is a minor one of about 5 to 10 degrees, it won’t present a problem in the accuracy of your Kamado Joe thermometer. Anything above a 20-degree disparity will indicate that there is an issue with the accurate calibration of the Kamado Joe thermometer.
An obvious disparity between temperature readings can negatively impact the grilling results. If you notice a big gap when you check the temperature, you should perform the calibration method once more.
Ensuring the Accuracy of a Kamado Joe Thermometer
There are a few things you can do to avoid having to calibrate the Kamado Joe thermometer on a regular basis. Here are a few quick tips to keep the thermometer as accurate as possible for longer:
- Don’t open the lid frequently during the grilling process. The longer you leave the dome closed, the more accurate the temperature readings.
- Try not to use a deflector plate or drip pan. These will create higher temperatures right next to the thermometer.
- Use recipes tested on dome thermometers. This will prevent issues with adapting temperatures and not getting the right readings.
To calibrate a Kamado Joe thermometer accurately, you should unscrew it from the lid then place it in boiling water to test the temperature reading. If it is not accurate, you should turn the screw on the back with a flathead screwdriver until it shows the correct temperature.

It's ten years since Switzerland decided to take a hard look at its behaviour during the Second World War by creating an independent commission of experts.
The committee, which was set up by the Swiss government and parliament in December 1996 after harsh criticism of the country as a war profiteer, sparked heated debate and scientific research.
During its five years of work, the Independent Commission of Experts Switzerland – Second World War published 25 volumes, some of which were critical of Switzerland's economic and refugee policies from 1933 to 1945.
The commission's findings were published as the Bergier report, named after Swiss historian Jean-François Bergier who led the research.
In 1995, 50 years after the end of the war, Jewish organisations began to ask Swiss banks questions about dormant accounts belonging to the victims of Nazism.
"Since the banks were very difficult to approach and out of their depth in their deplorable handling of the crisis, there was an escalation of the criticism which went as far as the government and the Swiss National Bank.
"It reached a climax in 1996," recalled Hans-Ulrich Jost, a leftwing Lausanne University professor who is renowned for his knowledge of 20th century Swiss history.
Jost chaired a panel in Bern on Friday that took stock of the impact of the Bergier report.
Ten years ago emotions had reached such a high point that then-cabinet minister Jean-Pascal Delamuraz spoke publicly of "blackmail and threat" against Switzerland.
But Jost believes that everything had begun in the 1960s well before international criticism, threatened class action suits and threats of a boycott of Swiss banks in the United States.
"It was even said in this terrible atmosphere of cheating that Switzerland had been impeccable during the war, that the questions raised were all about details and that they had already been adequately dealt with," Jost told swissinfo.
He confessed to have "laughed a little" himself when he heard Swiss Foreign Minister Flavio Cotti calling for "all the truth".
"Anyone who had read the history books of the time should have known the truth," he added.
Parliament approved the setting up of the independent commission on December 13, 1996.
And on December 19 the commission was named by the government to "shed light in an exhaustive manner on the role of Switzerland as a financial centre during and after the Nazi regime".
Rarely had an issue been tackled so promptly in a country that is known for the slowness of its federal system.
At the time, parliament did not discuss the problem in any depth and it was the same when the Bergier report came out just over five years later.
Jost recalls, however, that it was written in the commission's mandate that there would be a final parliamentary debate. "But at the outset any eventuality of Swiss "guilt" was excluded."
Bank secrecy in investigating dormant accounts from the period was lifted for five years and the experts could investigate gold and currency transactions of the national bank and other banks, business relations with Germany and the government's attitude towards refugees.
The pressure was enormous. "There was no reflection on the way to lead historical research and so the proceedings went on in a bureaucratic fashion," Jost said.
"Urgency does not create ideal conditions but the result is respectable," Jost commented about the 25-volume final report.
Since its publication, articles and books have continued to appear. But Jost is disappointed by the indifference the report has received from both universities and the media.
Jost does not mince his words when he refers to attacks from the rightwing Swiss People's Party "which openly spoke of burning the Bergier report without anyone protesting".
"Switzerland does not want to know, even experts do not want to dig too deep," Jost noted. But he is consoled by the hope that "in 50 years time, young researchers will reread it and can fuel public debate".
swissinfo, Isabelle Eichenberger
The Independent Commission of Experts Switzerland – Second World War was led by Swiss historian Jean-François Bergier.
The Swiss members: Helen B. Junz, economist (from February 2001); Georg Kreis, historian; Jacques Picard, historian; Jakob Tanner, historian; Daniel Thürer, jurist (from April 2001); Myrtha Welti, Secretary General.
Foreign historians: Wladyslaw Bartoszewski (Poland), Saul Friedländer (Israel/United States), Harold James (Britain).
December 13, 1996: Parliament approved a decree on historic and judicial research into the assets that arrived in Switzerland as a result of the National Socialist regime in Germany.
December 19: The government named the independent commission of experts. They took up their task in May, 1997.
May 1998: Presentation of the intermediate report entitled "Switzerland and gold transactions during the Second World War".
December 1999: Presentation of the second intermediate report, which concerned Swiss policy towards refugees.
December 19, 2001: The definitive report was handed in.
March 2002: The commission gave the government its final report – 600 pages, which complemented the 11,000 of the 25 volumes published.
The commission was disbanded after a five-year operation that cost SFr22 million ($18.3 million).

Crypto mining operations in the United States account for between 0.9% and 1.7% of the nation’s total power consumption, according to a report released today by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy detailing the environmental impact of crypto assets. The output is similar to the energy usage of all home computers or all residential lighting in the U.S.
The report, which was commissioned by the Biden administration as part of a March executive order on digital asset regulation, warned that crypto-related electricity usage is detrimental to efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
“Crypto assets could hinder broader efforts to achieve net-zero carbon pollution consistent with U.S. climate commitments and goals,” the report said.
Furthermore, crypto electricity output is increasing, with estimates that global usage has quadrupled since 2018. With China banning cryptocurrencies in 2021, the U.S. mining share of Bitcoin has risen from 3.5% in 2020 to 38% today.
The environmental impact is exacerbated by the fact that electricity demand driven by crypto mining is causing more natural gas and coal power plants to be put into use by electricity system operations, which cost more and pollute more than average grid electricity, according to the report.
As climate change worsens—including an estimated $145 billion in damage caused by climate disasters in the U.S. in 2021—the report warned that crypto mining threatens government actions to curb the crisis.
Much of crypto electricity usage is driven by consensus mechanisms, or the technology that verifies transactions on the distributed ledger known as the blockchain. Currently, the two largest cryptocurrencies by market cap, Bitcoin and Ethereum, use a proof-of-work mechanism, which requires significant computing power. Ethereum is planning to switch to a proof-of-stake mechanism later this month, which could reduce energy consumption by more than 99%.
Even with Ethereum’s planned shift, the energy output of Bitcoin remains a concern. As of last month, Bitcoin is estimated to account for up to 77% of global crypto-asset electricity usage.
The report instructed various departments, including the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy, to work with local governments and the crypto industry to develop environmental performance standards moving forward to regulate energy usage. However, it warned that should this prove ineffective, the White House and Congress should consider legislation to “limit or eliminate the use of high energy intensity consensus mechanisms for crypto-asset mining”—a move that could have existential implications for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Subject: H-ISLAMART:demands for the "ethnic" partition of cultural
patrimony in Bosnia [Andras Riedlmayer]
Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 14:24:31 -0500 (EST)
From: Andras Riedlmayer <riedlmay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Although thousands of other precious manuscripts and cultural treasures
were destroyed or looted in the 1992-95 war, the most famous manuscript in
Bosnia - known as the Sarajevo Haggadah - survived. During the shelling
of the National Museum by the Serb nationalist forces besieging Sarajevo,
it was moved to the relative safety of a vault in the National Bank.
Now the heirs of those who sought to destroy the National Museum (and
succeeded in burning the National Library, the Oriental Institute, and
scores of other museums and libraries) are demanding the "partition" of
the Sarajevo Haggadah. The Bosnian Serb authorities have put forward a
demand that the ancient manuscript be taken to Banja Luka a third of each
year to be exhibited in "their" museum.
The Banja Luka museum, known before the war as the regional museum of the
Bosanska Krajina, is now called Muzej Republike Srpske. Its non-Serb
staff members were fired in the first year of the war. The institution's
new approach to cultural patrimony is exemplified by an exhibition it held
at the beginning of 1994, a month after the last of Banja Luka's sixteen
ancient mosques and other Islamic monuments had been blown up by the Serb
nationalists who control the city. That exhibition, entitled "Banja Luka,
centar Vrbaske banovine 1929.-1941." (Banja Luka, capital of the Vrbas
province, 1929-1941) included dozens of historic photographs of the city,
taken at a time when Banja Luka had 30 mosques. Not one of the photographs
exhibited showed any sign of mosques or minarets -- not content with the
erasure of the physical buildings, those responsible for the exhibition
had also "corrected" the historical record to show that Banja Luka had
always been purely Serb. (The "correction" of historic photographs to
construct an ideologically convenient version of the past is, of course,
not limited to the former Yugoslavia; cf. David King. _The Commissar
Vanishes: The Falsification of Photographs and Art in Stalin's Russia_
New York: Metropolitan Books, 1997.)
The demand for a "share" of the Haggadah MS by the Serb nationalist
authorities was preceded by other demands for the ethnic partition of
Bosnia's cultural patrimony.
In October 1996, Helen Watasek and Dr Marian Wenzel were commissioned by
the Committee on Culture and Education of the European Parliament to visit
and report on the situation of museums in the Republika Srpska. Their
report noted (without inquiring into the reasons) that the museums they
visited had "lost staff in varying percentages of up to 60% in one case."
Museum directors in Banja Luka told Wenzel and Watasek that they would
like to gain access to documentation of museums and art galleries in
the Federation "to see what works they held by [ethnic] Serbian artists."
They ... indicated that they would then, through their
Ministry of Culture, like to arrange permanent exchanges
of works of art, so that their institutions could gain
ownership of works of Serbian artists held in Federation
museums, and in return would give objects by those artists
whose works they no longer wished to hold.
The director of the Art Gallery of the Serbian Republic
in Banja Luka made the (false) analogy that this desire
to acquire the works of [ethnic] Serbian artists held
in the collections of Federation galleries was the same
as the desire of the Egyptians or Greeks to see the return
of their cultural artefacts (such as the Elgin Marbles)
which were held in museums in Europe.
[Tenth Information Report on War Damage to the
Cultural Heritage in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina,
CoE Parliamentary Assembly doc. 7740, pp. 17-18]
The AP report (below) perpetuates several myths concerning the Haggadah
(incl. a new variant on the legends about its rescue during World War II).
For a recent scholarly examination of those Haggadah legends, and of more
recent tales about its fate during the recent war, see Kemal Bakarsic,
"The Story of the Sarajevo Haggada," Judaica Librarianship, 9 (1994-95),
The current condition of the National Museum (Zemaljski muzej) in Sarajevo
is also less dire than the AP story would lead one to believe. The National
Museum -- like all "national" institutions in post-Dayton Bosnia -- is
indeed starved for funds. However it is not in ruins and it continues
its activities, albeit on a limited basis. The Council of Europe report
cited above has this to say about its condition one year after the war:
There were great improvements in the situation at the
Zemaljski Muzej, though there is still much work to be done
to the fabric of the building. However, while the consultants
were there the repair of the museum roofs was completed, with
funding from Unesco. There is now glass in the windows, and
due to the lucky chance that the museum was selected as the
site for meetings of the Presidency, parts of the museum
(mainly the library) have been painted, carpeted and curtained.
Collections have largely been removed from their basement stores
and brought to upper levels for inspection and cleaning before
being restored in their original cupboards. ... At the time
of the consultants' visit there was a display of town costumes
from Sarajevo in the foyer of the museum. Staff morale is
greatly improved. One staff member in the Natural Sciences
Department has returned from abroad and the botanic garden has
been given more assistance.
During their visit to the Republika Srpska, Wenzel and Watasek "were able
to inform museum staff [in the RS] how museums in the Federation had
fared. ... There was particular interest in the Zemaljski Muzej, and
surprise was expressed on a number of occasions that so many Serb curators
had chosen to stay in Sarajevo and that they were still working at the
museum (as at other museums in Sarajevo and elsewhere in the Federation)."
In the brave new world of ethnic partition, it is indeed a matter for
great consternation that not only works of art but the people who care
for these objects continue to remain in "ethnically-mixed" circumstances.
Let's hope that those circumstances continue to endure, and that the ever-
hopeful "ethnically-pure" museums of Republika Srpska and "Herceg-Bosna"
continue to be confounded in their desire to partition Bosnia's heritage.

Bosnian Groups Clash Over Treasure
By Aida Cerkez-Robinson
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Dec. 22 (AP) -- After carving up
Bosnia's territory, the rival ethnic groups are now fighting over one of
the country's cultural treasures -- a 600-year-old Jewish holy book.
The Sarajevo Haggadah, handwritten on bleached calfskin, dates
back to the once-thriving Jewish community in Spain. A Haggadah
tells the story of the exodus of the Jews from ancient Egypt, and
Jews recite from it during the Passover holiday.
The 109-page Sarajevo Haggadah was carried to Italy in 1492
after King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain expelled the
country's Jews. It was brought to Bosnia by a rabbi and passed down
through his family until a descendant, Joseph Kohen, sold it to the
National Museum in 1894.
As part of the museum's collection, the priceless manuscript
belongs to the government of Bosnia-Herzogovina.
The 1995 Dayton peace agreement, however, effectively
partitioned the country along ethnic lines -- Serb, Muslim and Croat.
Now the Bosnian Serbs are demanding one-third ownership of the
manuscript and are insisting it be exhibited in Banja Luka, capital
of their mini-state, every third year.
In principle, the Haggadah would also be exhibited every third
year in Mostar, the unofficial Bosnian Croat capital. The Muslims
would prefer the Haggadah be kept in what had been its traditional
home -- the National Museum in Sarajevo.
But the National Museum was heavily damaged during the wartime
siege of Sarajevo, and the bullet-scarred structure from the
Austro-Hungarian era has not been rebuilt. For now, the manuscript
is kept in the vault of the National Bank.
Jakob Finci, the head of Sarajevo's Jewish Community, wants
the manuscript to remain in the national capital. Finci says Bosnian
Serb and Bosnian Croat nationalists have a record of destroying
cultural and religious monuments of rival groups during the
1992-1995 Bosnian war.
``They (the Serbs) blew up the Ferhadija, the others (the
Croats) blew up the Old Bridge,'' Finci said, referring to an
ancient mosque in Banja Luka and the world-renowned Ottoman bridge
in Mostar, which were both more than 400 years old. UNESCO had
designated the span a ``world heritage site.''
``Bosnia's body is our common history. But they are now building
-- let me use a Jewish expression -- three ghettos,'' he said
bitterly. While Western Europe is moving rapidly toward unity,
``only we are going in the other direction,'' he said.
The Sarajevo Haggadah has become a symbol of Bosnia's long
struggle against the forces of religious, cultural and ethnic
During World War II, when the city was occupied by German
troops, a Nazi general demanded that the National Museum surrender
the volume. A museum director, a Catholic Croat, and the Muslim
curator lied, telling the general another German officer had
confiscated the manuscript that morning.
The curator then wrapped the Haggadah in newspapers and
delivered it to a Muslim preacher who lived deep in the Bosnian
mountains. The preacher buried the Haggadah under the doorstep of
the village mosque until the end of the war.
In 1992, when Bosnian Serbs began shelling Sarajevo, the
museum's Muslim director, Enver Imamovic, and three volunteers
braved shell and sniper fire to enter the museum. With the help of
a Bosnian Serb, they broke into the museum vault, removed the
Haggadah and brought it to the National Bank, where it has been
kept ever since.
Although foreign donors and the joint Muslim, Serb and Croat
parliament have made funds available to reconstruct hotels, shops
and government buildings, money has not been provided for the
``Now, everybody wants his own museum and because of it, it's
a shame, but all museums in this city are closed,'' Finci said.
``The Haggadah is proof of the multi-ethnicity in Bosnia,''
Finci said. ``It is a testament that even in worst of times other's
values were not destroyed.''

Jersey Shore: Family Vacation will be returning for a second season, according to MTV, with a two-hour premiere on August 23. If you didn't get enough of the gang last season, this season promises to deliver a lot of good, some bad, and plenty of drama to keep fans on the edge of their seats. For MTV, the reboot was considered to be a bit of a risk prior to the first season as some cast members had personal problems after the cameras stopped rolling, but skeptics were quickly quieted as ratings proved the idea was a success.
According to information reported by Deadline Hollywood, among the show's target demographic of people aged 18-34, the show had its third best quarter ever, going back to when the original version aired in 2011 at the show's peak of popularity. The reboot has become a potential cornerstone for the network for several years to come in their unscripted television department, as they now have four of the top 10 shows of the genre. Along with Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, which is ranked No. 1, Teen Mom 2 is No. 2, Ex on the Beach weighs in at No. 5, and Teen Mom: Young & Pregnant comes in at No. 8.Season 2 of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation will return with Deena Nicole Cortese, Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Jenni "JWoww" Farley, Vinny Guadagnino, Paul "Pauly D" Delvecchio, Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino. According to Just Jared, there will be episodes surrounding some major life events for the housemates. The Pauly D wedding is rumored to be a big one, and there will definitely be the announcement by Deena that she is pregnant. On the downside will be some time spent on Ronnie and his domestic violence problem with his baby momma.
One thing that will be different this season is that even though the Jersey shore will be a part of the show, it isn't going to be like it used to be. There will be no more schlepping up those stairs, as the show only got permits to film in the area for two days. According to Seaside Heights Borough Administrator Christopher Vaz, the town has moved on from Jersey Shore, and Jersey Shore: Family Vacation has to move on from their old house, as reported by Elite Daily.
"...[We] have made a conscious decision to move on from the Jersey Shore reality series because it does not fit with our vision for the community as a family vacation destination. Reality TV thrives on conflict, drama and unpredictability. And in the case of the Jersey Shore, 'Seaside Heights' became a character of the show which is much different than other filming activities where Seaside Heights simply provides the background (ocean, beach, boardwalk) for the scenes."


Use of Proluvial Deposits for Constructing Earth Dams
The natural characteristics of the formation of proluvial deposits necessitates regulating their particle size distribution and moisture content before placement in the dam body. Soil material can be created from proluvial deposits for various zones of the dam body, including rubble-clay soil for impervious components, which with proper compaction, is characterized by high seepage, piping, and mechanical strength as well as small compressibility. It is advisable to carry out quality control of compaction of such soil on the basis of fines.
