The Effect of Wollastonite and Manganese Dioxide on Rice Grown on a Flooded Acid Sulfate Soil
특이산성토(特異酸性土)(답(沓))에 생육(生育)한 수도(水稻)에 대(對)한 규회석(珪灰石) 및 MnO2의 효과

The effect of wollastonite and manganese dioxide on the growth of rice on an acid sulfate soil were investigated in pot experiment. 1. Since aluminum content in the leachate of soil was reduced with increasing the pH and these chemical changes in the leachate were more pronounced by applying wollastonite, aluminum toxicity in flooded paddy rice was overcome by applying wollastonite, or flooding. 2. Poor growth of rice with iron toxicity-like symptoms on the untreated acid sulfate soil may be caused by excess iron and sulfur. Plants applied wollastonite, however, grew normally and did not show any symptoms. Iron and sulfur contents in the plant was reduced by applying wollastonite. 3. Because of the iron content in the both leachate and plant can be lowered by applying wollastonite, iron-toxicity was averted by applying the wollastonite. 4. Application of manganese dioxide in combination with wollastonite did not counteracted iron content in the plant as compared with the wollastonite treatment. 5. The application of wollastonite increased the dry weight of straw and grain yield. Manganese dioxide with wollastonite caused the increase of number of spickelets per panicles and ripened grains as compared with wollastonite. 6. From these results it can be concluded that the major cause of the poor growth of rice on acid sulfate soil is iron toxicity and the Fe-toxicity can be reduced by application of wollastonite.

Spend time practicing with an editing software program, there are many programs available, for beginners and experts.
For a list of free ones click here:
Free Editing Software
If you have a program, practice something that you have not tried before, here is an example from Nick McDonald
I’ve been trying to improve my editing skills by following tutorials in Practical Photography magazine, using images from my collection.
The idea here was to take two shots from the same viewpoint at different times of the day and then blend them into one image.
I had shots of the power station, taken several years ago, over the space of about an hour around sunset. I selected two and blended them in Photoshop by aligning the two images as separate layers and then applying a layer mask and then applying the gradient tool.

First read January 2005
This book does three ambitious things.
1. It takes the Old Testament of the Bible as inspiration for its mythical geo-historical content, but instead of an angry bearded guy in charge, it has a super-advanced utopian-collectivist space-travelling civilization colonising Earth and then struggling to maintain a shadow of hope and stability through thousands of literally star-crossed years when the unfortunate planet is fed on and influenced by another, evil space-travelling civilization.
2. It attempts to realistically predict the Old-Testament apocalypse playing out some time in the immediate future with the disintegration of most the structures of international organisation, collapse of Europe, rise of China, epidemics, famine, culmination in World War III, and the aftermath. Lessing actually bothers to imagine the details
3. It does these things while breaking and rebuilding the form of the novel. The principle subtext to the plot, coarsely outlined above in points 1 and 2, is a nuanced but severe indictment of the crimes of European and especially English imperialism. Its condemnation of wanton, wasteful, greedy, arrogant, careless behaviour, and the uncomfortable plea (one that cannot be reasonably made by a White person, and is accordingly made very un-reasonably here) to the systematically oppressed peoples of the Earth not to slaughter White people in revenge, could have been the subject of a sanctimonious essay.
There is nothing of the essay about Shikasta. There is no author voice. The book presents itself as ‘documents relating to visit by Johor…’ and much of it is narrated by this Johor, emissary, envoy, agent of Canopus, the benevolent interstellar coloniser of Earth. That he is an unreliable narrator is reiterated several times. He often speaks of being ‘affected’ by ’emanations’ and circumstances on Shikasta, and ‘The Archivists’ who narrate the various extracts from Canopean official documents comment on Johor’s judgement. The Archivists are not reliable either. For one thing, they are concerned with the broad sweep of events on a global scale, and for another Johor and other agents’ reports criticise them for their imperfect understanding of local conditions.
When Johor is incarnated, Christlike, as George, we know we can’t rely on him as we know he will not ‘remember’ being Johor, his life experience will affect him, and we have already seen one of his colleagues wander from the path planned for him by Canopus. In fact, George might have been the best choice of narrator for the time of the ‘Last Days’, but Lessing abandons direct narration altogether at this point and instead has the last 200 pages worth of events unfold through a variety of documents, principally the diary of George’s (yes, of course unreliable) younger sister.
Perhaps most importantly, we are not made to assume that Canopus represents Lessing. Canopus is concerned that the ‘White races’ escape extermination because they are ‘genetically useful’ animals for the overall health of the species. This ‘eugeneticist’ stance, revealed only towards the end of the book, casts a slightly sinister shadow over Canopus’ return to power over Earth.
Finally, I will comment on the picture painted here of human beings, through multiple sources and events. It is a dim one. We are weak, foolish and highly suggestible animals, neither wise and kind enough to build our own geometrically pleasing anarchist utopia (Johor calls power hierarchies ‘the Degenerative Disease’) without the vital flow of substance-of-we-feeling (fellow-feeling) from Canopus, nor wicked and stupid enough to build our own hell (the present state of humanity on Earth) without the influence of an evil parasitic influence feeding on violence and waste.
It was as if I had been given the task of telling someone in perfect health that he would shortly become a moron, but that he must do his best to remember some useful facts, which were a… b…. c…
so says Johor of the time when the ancient, utopian civilisation began to collapse. The best a Shikastan can do is struggle to thrive and support her brothers and sisters against all the odds, and wait for the return of Canopus.
This premise of human dependency is problematic for me, but I think it contains its own negation – since the book is *actually* written by a Shikastan. Lessing asserts the unreliability of all her narrators, allowing a space for the weak-human thesis to be a colonial misunderstanding of the colonised.

The Age of Radiance: The Epic Rise and Dramatic Fall of the Atomic Era
by Craig Nelson
“Your family is radioactive; your friends are radioactive; your pets are radioactive; and the earth itself throws off a gaseous froth of radon,” writes journalist Nelson in this history of the atomic age. The book begins with the 1890s discovery of the first known radioactive elements and traces humankind's manipulation of radiation through to the 2011 nuclear disaster in Fukushima, Japan. Along the way, Nelson explains the science behind nuclear power, radiotherapy and the atomic bomb and brings to life the historical figures, such as Marie and Pierre Curie, Albert Einstein and J. Robert Oppenheimer, who defined the era. Ultimately Nelson argues that the atomic age is in its twilight and that eventually both nuclear power and nuclear weapons will be nearly eradicated.


It should also be noted that some old keyboards will not work as the parts used inside the old keyboards will not generate the required cock timings required for the motherboard to comply with it. I was having such problem and decided to find a solution for it. Nice mod sir, congrats: Will this work the other way around?

Problem is device driver availability. Someone published an usb ball mouse steering wheel mod very nice, and I’m thinking this mouse circuit board could be used for the Joystick.
USB to PS/2 Convertor
It does NOT work. But again if you have already bought it then this instructables is gonna teach you how to accomplish the feat. Sometimes the keys did not function properly and sometimes it would automatically eject saitek st220 digital joystick. Hence USB will give message device not recognized. Is it possible to follow the same circuit diagram for that.
We have a be nice ditital.
Did you make this project? It has clock and data lines. That is correct, and it has nothing to do with how recent the keyboard model is.
I have an USB keyboard and an arduino to control the keyboard. You ralkut are arguing that he has not read your instructable properly, but you have in fact not read his comment properly and assume that s2t20 is saying that your instructable will not work.
Will this work the other way saitek st220 digital joystick
Otherwise, theoretically it seems impossible because of different topologies in these two types of keyboards, which prevent them from interchanging interfaces USB to PS2, or vice versa. It should also be noted that some old keyboards will not work as the parts used inside the old keyboards will not generate the saitek st220 digital joystick cock timings required for the motherboard to comply with it.
This will not work. Share it with us! Anyway, thanks for writing a detailed instructable. Since the flaws for buying a USB keyboard are i It is gonna occupy one of the USB slots in your computer and hence there will be no space for USB when you are connecting multiple com ports. His comment is likely an answer to saitek st220 digital joystick question above. I was having such problem and decided to find a solution for it.
And thanks for you comment. Haunted Robotic Teddy Bear.
Can I use this to make the USB keyboard working? These are quite cheap and work VERY well.
After intensive search no one seems to have published a mod like that. Nice mod sir, congrats: And saitek st220 digital joystick your DIY cable is complete. You are then done. The Situation I had actually bought a flexible keyboard from the market and i had no idea that it saitek st220 digital joystick a USB socket to the output.
I was using this USB keyboard for a couple of days digitxl after using it for some time it was giving me trouble.
USB to PS/2 Convertor
I have a question: I have already mentioned in my instructable that only some recent usb keyboard can joystkck adapted for this method. But most digotal the Keyboard will definitely work. And Using the mouse as USB bothers me because it ejects it’s self automatically after about 30 seconds and makes That sound when you eject a device, saitek st220 digital joystick once you move the mouse that irritating sound once again emits and begins functioning after a brief pause.

To create these monochrome drawings on brown package paper, my 7th-grade students used three pencils: one white, one brown, and one black.
In the video tutorial below you can follow every step of the activity. You need a photocopy of still life, a sheet of brown package paper, carbon paper, and pencils. You can find other videos on my YouTube channel Miriam Paternoster.
To copy the main lines of the picture you can use carbon paper, tracing the outlines of the objects on the wrapping paper. You can also copy the picture with a free-hand drawing or with a grid, depend on the time you have to complete the drawing.
First, we copy the LIGHTS with the white pencil, then we color the middle tones with the brown and the darker shadows with the black. At every step we see the drawing being more realistic and increasing the three-dimensional effect.
Here we have the students’ drawings

What is your current state of mind?
Besides doing my part to isolate socially, so much of this whole situation is outside my control. I’ve become at peace with that and it allows me to feel less anxious and fearful but instead just take each day as it comes.

I’m limiting my exposure socially, but not limiting my time in the outdoors. I’m making sure my new routine includes some intentional time outside to stay grounded and take advantage of the beautiful area we live in.
How has your perspective changed over the last few weeks?
I’ve realized the severity of the situation as time has progressed. It’s really important for all of us to take it seriously.
What is your most pressing concern?
I’m concerned for the amount of people in vulnerable situations that are facing so much extra stress during this time.
What are you hopeful about?
I am feeling optimistic and grateful for the love in our community. I am excited to be surprised by the unique ways we come together during and after this time to come out on the other side and to live with more kindness for our neighbors.

Our idea was to use the Haveli wall background to give a royal setup, and the outfit was selected accordingly. Rather than have a front profile we decided to get the shoulder glance to work as Priya walks away from the camera. Rather than being still in that pose she had to walk many times and turn and give a casual glance, this was important so as to get the correct body posture and feet position. At the same time the face should be expressionless with alluring eyes. Took quite a few clicks to get this working. I am extremely happy with the final snap and kudos to Priya for the brilliant pose. I don’t think anyone else could have done justice to this snap. The background with the wall colors which and lighting on one side, the dark steps on the other, the brass pot, the leaves, the pillars with light effects all worked in our favour.
Below is another snap we clicked in the same Haveli
Another part of the Haveli in Jodhpur, the fountain scene had to be playful. Capturing water droplets is easy but only from a close shot. With a wide angle shot the problem is the droplets might be too small to be visible correctly. Again we had to make a few attempts before we managed to get enough droplets to make this work.
Both the snaps were clicked at Pal Haveli at Jodhpur.

After a fun and rigorous core semester, it’s finally winter break, but I’m not hitting the slopes or soaking up the sun on a beach somewhere warm. Instead, I signed up to go to Seattle with 17 other MIT Sloan students on a technology career trek. While this may sound like an unusual way to spend our vacation time, it’s actually a great opportunity for MBA students to learn more about the technology industry and what it would be like to work for a tech company.
For businesses that use them, non-compete agreements, which typically bar their employees from joining rival companies for one to two years, offer a clear benefit: They prevent employees from going to a rival with the knowledge and skills they have acquired on the job. But these agreements also carry a high cost for the employees, many of whom did not realize they would be bound by them until after they accepted the job offer. According to my new study of more than 1,000 engineers, about one-third of workers who have signed non-compete agreements end up leaving their chosen industry altogether when they change jobs, often at significant financial cost.

Female genital mutilation (FGM): An analysis of the silences in maternity care experiences of FGM survivors and the silences of health care professionals providing maternity care to FGM survivors
MetadataShow full item record
AbstractThe consequences of female genital mutilation (FGM) during the perinatal period are significant, but the experiences of FGM survivors accessing maternity care are under-reported in the literature. This thesis reports on the analysis of experiences of FGM survivors in maternity care and the experiences of health care professionals providing such care. This qualitative study was methodologically structured around the Sound of Silence framework which was developed for research with marginalised groups and communities. Two separate cohorts of participants took part in this study; 20 FGM survivors and eight health care professionals. FGM survivors met the inclusion criteria if, (i) they had given birth within the previous few days of data collection, (ii) they and their baby were of sufficient health to be discharged home and, (iii) were able to communicate in one of the languages identified for use in this study; namely Arabic, English and/or French. Health care professionals were excluded from this study if they had provided maternity care within the service where they FGM survivor participants had accessed care. Data analysis was conducted using a combination of thematic and discourse analysis to interpret overarching themes and elicit silences in the dominant discourses that were interpreted across the data. The findings from the analysis suggest that health care professionals’ education and training lacks the cultural context of FGM which seems to have an impact on the provision of maternity services for FGM survivors. Although risk assessments appeared to be dominant in the discourse of maternity care, this discourse appears to constrain health care professionals in maternity services from providing culturally responsive care. This appeared to lead to a silence of cultural sensitivity when providing care to FGM survivors. Themes that were interpreted from the data suggest that mental health services are not seamless in maternity services for FGM survivors which appeared to relate to constraints in care provision as well as knowledge and education and communication issues with and amongst health care professionals. This finding led to the conception of a novel model of cultural silence around FGM which can be used to determine cultural dissonance in health care settings. Furthermore, recommendations include the development of working groups of FGM survivors and key stakeholders in the co-design and production of clinical guidance and education for health care professionals. Strategic planning for the implementation of mental health care collaboration in maternity services is recommended as well as the requirement of further research of mental health care in maternity services for FGM survivors.

text: BACKGROUND There is currently no information on the lifetime diet of ultra-endurance exercisers. This study describes changes in diet across the lifetime of current ultra-endurance exercisers and the relationship between diet and physical activity (specifically ultra-endurance exercise [UEE]). METHODS Lifetime physical activity and diet were assessed in current ultra-endurance exercisers (N.=120; ages 21-74 years) over six life periods (5-12, 13-18, 19-30, 31-45, 46-60, 61-75 years). Using the life period having the largest absolute increase in UEE (IUEE), diet was assessed according to food category scores and dietary patterns. Changes in lifetime diet were described by comparing food category scores between adjacent life periods. Differences in food category scores were investigated between the life period for each IUEE group and the preceding life period and associations between dietary patterns and UEE were investigated within each IUEE group. Relationships between lifetime diet and UEE were investigated by examining associations between lifetime food category scores and lifetime UEE. RESULTS The participant group had significant increases in all food category scores from 13-18 to 19-30 years and significant decreases in all food category scores from 19-30 to 31-45 years. UEE correlated negatively with the Western style dietary pattern in the IUEE19-30 group and positively with the fruit and vegetable dietary pattern in the IUEE31-45 group. There was a positive correlation between lifetime UEE and lifetime vegetables and fruit category scores. CONCLUSIONS The ultra-endurance exercisers in this study exhibited changes in diet similar to general populations, which appear to reflect typical nutritional requirements across the lifespan.

Plate Theory and Extensions - Resolving Power of a Column > Page 62
Curves relating (n) and (k'A) for solute pairs having separation ratios of 1.02, 1.03, 1.05 and 1.07, calculated using equation (55) are shown in Figure 18. As the separation becomes more difficult (i.e., the separation ratio (aA/B) becomes smaller), the necessary efficiency (n) for resolution increases rapidly. This is due to the fact that as (aA/B) becomes smaller, the peaks become closer, consequently dispersion must be more constrained to reduce their width. To do this, the column must be made more efficient. Nevertheless, the dramatic increase in (n) when the capacity factor becomes small is not so obvious. This makes achieving short analysis times very difficult, as fast elution is achieved with small (k') values. However, the greater efficiencies needed at lower (k') values will require longer columns which will extend the analysis times. To resolve a solute pair with a separation ratio of 1.02, an efficiency of 360,000 theoretical would be required if the (k') value was 0.5. GC Capillary columns can provide such efficiencies but, in LC, such efficiencies would be extremely difficult and costly to produce. It follows that the phase system should be chosen so that the closest eluted solutes are not eluted at low (k') values. Less efficiency will be needed and, thus, shorter columns and consequently, shorter analysis times will be achieved. At (k') values that exceed 10, the required efficiency changes little as the capacity ratio increases. Thus, for fast analyses, the phase system provide a large separation ratio, but the first peak should elute at a (k') of 10 or more. The phase system should have high selectivity and retentive capacity so that minimum efficiency is required and the column can be as short as possible.

The Spice Girls are to launch their own musical in London's West End, which is bad news for London's West End and even worse news for music.
Ginger Spice Geri Halliwell wants to bring the rags-to-bitches story of the Spice Girls to life on the stage, which is the best definition of stage fright I've heard. And I've sat through Cats.
The relationship between the five girls seems more harmonious, well at least more harmonious than their music, because as they've grown older they've realised they have a lot in common.
Many have had marital difficulties, Sporty and Scary look like they've had learning difficulties, and all have had singing difficulties.
Stories suggest the girls will produce a reality TV show to unearth five youngsters to play the parts of the Spices. They must have the ability to make a song their own and the stage their own but their boobs don't have to be their own.
The girl playing Sporty must look sporty, the girl playing Scary must look scary, and the girl playing Posh must look about six stone.
The West End successes of Joseph and The Sound Of Music demonstrates TV talent programmes boost West End attendances, mainly because no-one's at home watching the telly.
Paddy Power offer just 11-10 the Spice Girls musical will run for more than five years. It's 1-8 that it will just feel like that.
You can get 33-1 it outlives the Cats' record of 21 years in the West End. It doesn't have a dog's chance.

Phew what a wild ride!!
In 2015 we photographed 36 weddings, 24 portrait sessions and over 100 dogs. We raised almost $1000 for shelter pet vet bills and donated over 200 hours of volunteer time. We launched our cinema division and Mike went full time at CLPC creating a true husband + wife team. I took the last photo of my mother I ever will. We celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary and my 3-0. I got my 15 minutes of fame on the news. We traveled to Italy, Paris, Maryland and Colorado.. one of which we even fell in love with as our future place of residence. It’s amazing to think what started with one Orlando wedding photographer has grown to so much more!

While I write, I have the TV going on in the background. There isn’t a rule, one way or the other for this. Some people need silence. Some, music. I know a few folks who build soundtracks for their writing, and use that. I need voices. Not words, but voices. There are two rules for the background shows/movies I have on. First, I need to have seen the show or movie before. I can’t want to watch it.
Second, the show or movie need to be supportive of what I am writing. I write cozy mysteries, so my viewing tends towards Murder She Wrote, Matlock, Hart to Hart, Castle. Of late, I have been on a Diagnosis Murder bender. I haven’t seen Diagnosis Murder for a while, so I’ve been binge watching them while my deadline was approaching. Because of that, I am watching compressed seasons. I’ve noticed, more than I think I’ve noticed on other shows, the difference a showrunner can make. A showrunner works on the overall concept of the season–arching story lines, overall mood. On Diagnosis Murder, one season featured casts of old TV shows being featured. Another season had serial killers, and terrorists. Very different moods, same show.
I’ve been thinking a lot about that. Reader/viewer expectations are built around certain parameters. If you are writing a romance, you need to have a romantic payoff at the end. If you are writing a cozy mystery, justice needs to be served. More than that, if you are writing a series of books (which I am), you build up expectations for your character’s behavior. If you deviate from that behavior, there better be a good reason. You are also risking losing the reader even if the change isn’t a surprise.
Understanding this adds to my role of showrunner for my series. I will be starting to plot Book #3 in August. How much can I deviate from expectations? Have I painted myself into a corner? No matter what, you are your own showrunner. Just understand that it goes beyond plotting. It is about the partnership with your reader.

POINT PLEASANT — Some residents along Jefferson Blvd. have requested the City of Point Pleasant officially abandon a street behind their homes and in the floodplain.
Morgan Bragg who lives along Jefferson Blvd., this week presented Point Pleasant City Council members with a petition, on behalf of himself and other residents, requesting the abandonment of North Street. He said residents had been cleaning, mowing and seeding the area near the street for some time and would like to finally “absorb” the street which had never been officially abandoned by the city.
Council seemed to have no objections on the matter and asked City Attorney R.F. Stein, Jr., to look at the area and draw up the necessary ordinance for council to read, discuss and vote on. If council decides to abandon the street, it would require two readings and a public hearing.
In other council news:
City Inspector Randy Hall reported the city was partnering with the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection for a “free tire take back day” from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., June 18. Collection will be behind the Mason County Career Center.
In other council news, members heard from Chris Rizer from Hartford who is attempting to reestablish a Mason County Historical Society and is reaching out to communities in the county for support and for any projects concerning historical preservation, including preserving cemeteries. Council gave Rizer their support and Mayor Brian Billings asked him to report back about his progress and projects in the county.
Billings reported his office, with help from Administrative Assistant Teka McCauley, has sent letters asking for donations to help establish a spray park at Krodel Park. These letters went to large, area businesses as well as to State Sen. Mike Hall. Billings said Peoples Bank will also be making a donation in the future to the project.
Councilman Bob Rulen reported on progress to the upgrade of the walking trail at Krodel Park, saying the design portion of the trail met with the Americans with Disabilities Act standards and will be sent for review and then out to bid. Though the process has been slow, Rulen said it is “moving forward.”
Billings reported “Mayor’s Night Out,” the free concert series at Riverfront Park, is slated to return this year starting June 10 – Aug. 26 on Friday nights. No shows regatta weekend or the weekend of the Mason County Fair. Lineup to follow.

To assess the prevalence of statin usage, intensity of statin therapy, and serum LDL cholesterol levels achieved in clinical diabetes mellitus population to analyze whether the recommendations of American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association’s cholesterol guidelines 2013 (ACC/AHA cholesterol guidelines 2013) are achieved in them.
Fasting lipid profile values, prevalence of statin usage, and intensity of statin therapy among 306 diabetes mellitus patients in the age group of 40 to 75 years, visiting the medicine department of a secondary care hospital, were noted. Results were analyzed as per the ACC/AHA cholesterol guidelines 2013 using Microsoft excel 2016.
Out of 294 diabetes mellitus patients who qualified for statin therapy, only 68% (199) are on statins. In this group of patients, 22% (44) are on low-intensity, 77% on moderate-intensity, and 1% (3) are on high-intensity statin therapy. When the serum LDL cholesterol levels of the diabetic patients were analyzed, only 21% (64) of them could achieve the level of < 70 mg/dl, below which the risk of developing cardiovascular disease is low.
Dyslipidemia, a risk factor for the development and progression of atherosclerosis among diabetes mellitus patients, is not being treated in secondary care practice as per the ACC/AHA cholesterol guidelines of 2013. Initiating moderate-intensity statin therapy among non-statin users and shifting patients on low-intensity to moderate-intensity statin therapy would help these patients in achieving the desired serum LDL cholesterol level of < 70 mg/dl.

Saima Wazed Hossain, the daughter of Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, is the chair of a new national advisory committee on autism, meant to raise awareness of the developmental disorder in her country and in South Asia.
Advocacy around autism is ramping up in South Asia. The U.S. group Autism Speaks is funding research into autism in many parts of the world, including in India. The nonprofit group, along with the the Bangladesh government and the World Health Organization, organized a conference on the disorder in Dhaka late last month.
India Real Time interviewed Ms. Hossain about these initiatives via email. Edited excerpts.
A study funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health aims to map the extent of neurological disorders in Indian children, and to encourage India to put in place public health programs to diagnose and provide treatment to kids with disabilities early on.
The study, the first of its kind in India, is being carried out by the International Clinical Epidemiology Network Trust, which works on improving health care research in the developing world.
The network’s executive director, pediatrician Narendra K. Arora, said the study will begin diagnosis on a sample population after this year’s monsoon.

CCS and Power Systems
Carbon Capture - Post-Combustion Capture
Application of a Heat Integrated Post-Combustion Carbon Dioxide Capture System with Hitachi Advanced Solvent into Existing Coal-Fired Power Plant
Performer: University of Kentucky
Project No: FE0007395
The University of Kentucky Center for Applied Energy Research (UK CAER) Team will develop a two megawatt thermal (0.7 megawatt electrical [MWe] equivalent) slipstream post-combustion CO2 capture system for a coal-fired power plant using novel concepts coupled with Hitachi’s proprietary solvent (H3-1). An innovative heat integration method will utilize waste heat from the carbon capture system while improving steam turbine efficiency. A two-stage stripping concept will be combined with the heat integration method to increase solvent capacity and capture rate in the CO2 scrubber. The advanced solvent utilized by the process has several advantages over conventional amine solvents such as 30 weight percent (wt%) monoethanolamine (MEA), including exhibiting lower heat of regeneration, higher capacity, and less solvent degradation. Previous laboratory and pilot-scale tests of the H3-1 solvent, as well as results from an initial techno-economic analysis of the capture process, illustrate the potential of this CO2 capture system. Key features of the project are a two-stage stripping process for solvent regeneration and a heat-integrated cooling tower system that recovers waste energy from the carbon capture platform. The two-stage stripping process will increase solvent working capacity by providing a secondary air stripping column following the conventional steam stripping column. The air stripping stream will be sent to the boiler as combustion air to increase the CO2 content in the flue gas exiting the boiler. The integrated cooling tower system will use a liquid desiccant to dry the cooling tower air and waste heat to dry the liquid desiccant. The overall effect will be improved power plant cooling tower and steam turbine efficiency.
The project will be located at LG&E and KU Services Company’s E.W. Brown Generating Station, located near Harrodsburg, Kentucky. The design, start-up, and commissioning of the test facility will be performed with a generic 30 wt% MEA solvent to obtain baseline data for comparison with other proprietary solvents to be tested in the program. Testing will be conducted on two proprietary solvents: Hitachi’s advance amine solvent (H3-1), and a proprietary solvent developed by the CAER as an alternative solvent. Parametric testing and longterm verification campaigns will be conducted for each of the solvents. Corrosion evaluation and solvent degradation studies will be conducted concurrently with the verification runs. The potential heat integration, solvent and water management, and CO2 capture system stability and operability will be the main focal points. Process modeling will be performed to optimize the post-combustion CO2 capture system, determine power plant integration strategies, and conduct sensitivity analyses. The results of the modeling studies will be used to complete an economic analysis of the process to determine its capital and operating costs as well as to estimate the cost of electricity (COE) as compared to the reference MEA process.

Tweet to pay: Is this the future of banks maintaining a competitive edge?
Do customers want off-site banking to be as simple as sending a tweet? A bank in France is making that a reality.
With the significant rise of person-to-person (P2P) payments – allowing a customer the convenience of sending money directly to someone else quickly – news broke earlier this month that Twitter is getting into the game; and yesterday, the details were announced at a press conference. Groupe BPCE, France’s second largest bank (by customers), has utilized the API of the global social media giant Twitter to allow their customers to transfer money via a tweet.
This is certainly an interesting innovation, but many bankers may be asking themselves if it’s a practical one. BPCE allowing their customers to pay a friend, family member or business acquaintance with a tweet will likely entice some French consumers to switch banks. Bankers know that one of the key ways to attract new customers to their financial institution is to remain competitive within the marketplace. Offering convenient ways to bank can be an appealing option to draw in those new customers, particularly for the millennial generation. And while this particular innovation’s longevity is untested, as the platform is just launched, the inspiration could excite some banks in the United States to develop similar programs to get a leg up on their competition as well.
So how does a tweet to pay technology work? Tech site VentureBeat broke down the process that BCPE customers can use to send a P2P payment anywhere in the world.
Nicolas Chatillon, chief executive of S-Money at BPCE, explained that this service, “Offers Twitter users in France a new way to send each other money, irrespective of their bank and without having to enter the beneficiary’s bank details, with a simple tweet.”
The tweet to pay will be managed by the bank’s S-Money mobile payments unit, via their app. The customer then links the app – which will house their financial information such as their credit card number they wish to use – to their Twitter account. Then, in order to process a P2P, the customer tweets the exact symbols and words required:
Another question likely on the minds of both bankers and consumers is if sending money via Twitter is actually secure. BPCE says that this process will abide by the credit card industry’s data security standards.
Twitter’s foray into the on-the-go payment space falls in line with other technology companies launching similar offerings, like Apple’s mobile wallet, Apple Pay, anticipated later this month. PayPal has been a staple in the user-to-user payment option since the late 1990s; and Facebook’s speed to migrate users to their Messenger app is speculated to be the Mark Zuckerberg-run company’s entrance the payment space as well. With so many P2P payment options soon to be available, consumers will have a lot of choices for easy banking.
Bankers planning their 2015 marketing campaigns should take note of this and other innovations, overseas or locally, as remaining competitive as a financial institution may become more challenging. Question what it is that is helping your bank or credit union stand out from the crowd.

Exodus Church and Civil Society Public Theology and Social Theory in the Work of Jürgen Moltmann
This book investigates the intersection of theology and social theory in the work of JÃ¼rgen Moltmann. In particular, it examines the way in which his concept of the "Exodus Church" can illuminate the importance of the idea of civil society for a Christian public theology. The concept of civil society can aid in moving from the narrower category of "political theology," a term used frequently by Moltmann to emphasize the church's public commitment, to a broader understanding of theology's public task, which takes into account the plurality of ends and institutions within society. The idea of the Exodus Church enables deeper understanding of Christian ethical participation within a complex modern society.
