Is Amazon Prime video worth getting?
Amazon Prime generally has a more limited selection than Netflix or Hulu, but it also has some originals and a good amount of exclusive content.
So it is worth getting, at least every once and a while, for the content you can’t get from other services.
Amazon Prime has a lot of HBO content..
Why do I have to pay for movies on Amazon Prime?
If you get Prime only for movies then you get it for the wrong reason. When you buy prime you buy it for the convenience of 2 day shipping (one day now for most things). They have since added services to encourage you to spend more time at Amazon and shop. All additional items are to sell services.
Is there a difference between Amazon Video and Amazon Prime?
Amazon Video is divided into two separate parts: Amazon Prime Video, its all-you-can-stream subscription service, and Amazon Instant Video, its pay-per-view store for buying and renting videos. Just because something is listed on Amazon as a video for streaming, that doesn’t mean it’s part of Amazon Prime Video.
How long do movies stay on Amazon Prime?
Viewing Period: For rental videos, you’ll typically have 48 hours to finish watching the video once you have commenced streaming or downloading, provided that in any event you must finish watching the video prior to expiration of the applicable expiration window, which is typically 30 days from your payment of the …
How much do movies cost with Amazon Prime?
Amazon Prime membership costs $99 per year (or about $8.25 per month), but also includes unlimited, free two-day shipping on many items. You also get access to the company’s growing selection of streaming TV shows and movies. Hulu Plus costs $7.99 per month or $95.88 per year.
Is Amazon Prime video better than Netflix?
Video quality is generally very good on Amazon Prime Video, and it’s remarkable that the service doesn’t charge more money for titles that are available to be streamed in up to 4K with HDR and Dolby Atmos. … Video and audio quality on Netflix is superb.
How many movies does Amazon Prime have compared to Netflix?
ContentNetflixPrime VideoNumber of movies*3,75122,876Number of shows*1,5691,984Movies in IMDb Top 2503321TV Shows in IMDb Top 2506947
Is Netflix included in Amazon Prime video?
Netflix. Amazon Prime Video comes with an Amazon Prime membership.
Which is better Hulu or Netflix?
But, generally speaking, Netflix is better for originals while Hulu offers more when it comes to network TV programming. … In addition to add-ons, Hulu also offers a plan with Live TV channels, which is another thing you can’t get with Netflix.
What is free with Amazon Prime?
What are the benefits of Amazon Prime?Prime Now. … Unlimited movie and TV streaming. … Unlimited reading. … One free borrowed e-book per month. … Unlimited music streaming. … Prime Day and Prime Early Access. … Free unlimited photo storage with Prime Photos. … Stock up with Prime Pantry.More items…•

On July 6, the U.S. Homeland Security chief promised that the current administration would “stem the tide” of unaccompanied minors from Central America who have attempted to cross into the United States without documentation over the previous months. The number of undocumented immigrants being apprehended in the Rio Grande Valley in Texas has skyrocketed over these last few months and has caused an intense shake-up in traditional processing procedures.
With such a high number of immigrants, many have had to be transferred to other locations in the Southwest in order to be processed. According to Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, “immigration officials have cut the turnaround time for processing deportation of adult immigrant detainees from about 33 days to four, and are working to add detention capacity for children and teens who arrive on their own.”
As reported on latimes.com, Secretary Johnson was a guest on NBC's “Meet the Press” and stated that although the country wants to help migrant children as much as possible, the United States cannot permit this kind of undocumented immigration. Since October 2013, there have been in excess of 40,000 undocumented, unaccompanied children coming from Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador. In addition, there were 12,000 unaccompanied minors from Mexico since the fall of 2013 who were apprehended as they tried to cross the border. However, U.S. immigration laws allow Mexican minors to be bused back to their country.
When unaccompanied minors from Central America are apprehended while attempting to cross into the U.S., it is next to impossible for them to be deported without first appearing before an immigration judge. Meanwhile, immigration courts have been facing significant backlogs for years and that means many of these minors are sent to live with relatives while they wait.
This surge in apprehensions at the border comes at a time when President Obama is already facing harsh words from critics who disagree with his take on immigration enforcement and policy. Texas Governor Rick Perry stated that he had previously warned the president and his administration in 2012 that “a problem was brewing with unaccompanied minors.” Gov. Perry recently told ABC's “This Week” that he doesn't think that the president “particularly cares whether or not the border of the United States is secure.”
Many Republicans argue that recent policies enacted by the Obama Administration have led to this recent border crisis. One specific policy that is discussed in this context is a 2012 program which allows for those who moved “to the U.S. as children before June 2007 to apply for deportation deferrals.”
In June, the issue came to a head in Murrieta, CA, when protesters surrounded buses that were transferring immigrants to a Border Patrol facility in the area. There were more than 100 protesters and the buses were forced to re-route and take the 140 immigrants to a facility in San Diego.
The mayor of Murrieta stated that the majority of the protesters involved in the event were not residents of the town and those who do live in Murrieta are generally “caring” and “compassionate.”

Lemon Poppy Seed Bread is an easy-to-make quick bread that tastes sweet and full of lemon flavor. It is a great summer dessert to make, made better with the addition of lemon glaze drizzled over the top.
These Lemon Poppy-seed muffins are made healthy by using coconut oil instead of butter, coconut sugar instead of cane sugar, and some gluten free flour replacing some of the all-purpose flour. These make a great snack anytime of the day.
Ingredients: (makes 12 muffins)
½ cup softened coconut oil
½ cup coconut sugar
2 eggs, separated
½ cup + ⅓ cup all purpose flour
½ cup all-purpose gluten-free flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons poppy-seeds
2 tablespoons lemon zest
3 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup buttermilk (to easily make your own buttermilk, see step #_)
1 teaspoon vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease muffin tins, or place little muffin papers in each.
(Optional but preferred: Put the lemon zest and sugar into a food processor and blend until zest is all blended in with the sugar. This is good to impart a more lemony flavor. )
In a large bowl, cream coconut oil and coconut sugar. Add eggs one at a time, until creamy and combined.
Place the egg whites separately in a medium deep bowl.
If you don’t have buttermilk, then you can easily make this substitute, that works just as well:
You’ll need 1/2 cup of buttermilk, so in a liquid measuring glass, pour in 1/2 tablespoon of vinegar. Then pour in the milk till it is filled up to 1/2 cup. Let sit for a few minutes, until curdled.
In a separate medium bowl, mix the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, poppy-seeds, and lemon zest. (if you already blended the lemon zest in with the sugar like I earlier suggested, then obviously, you won’t be putting it into this bowl)
Dump the flour into the sugar/oil mixture. Alternate this with pouring in the buttermilk, and lemon juice, and then vanilla, until everything is combined.
With a high-speed handmixer, whip the egg white until tall peaks form, and it is light and fluffy.
Carefully fold in the egg white into the batter until completely incorporated. Spoon evenly into the 12 muffin tins.
Bake in oven for about 25 minutes, or until golden brown.

What Does Cooling Tower Mean?
This is a structure that is used for extracting waste heat from a system, in which a process that utilizes energy takes place. The tower has an open top, which allows hot water to escape to the atmosphere. It eradicates excess heat by condensing steam or cooling hot water streams to lower temperatures. A cooling tower is used in refrigeration and air conditioning to provide a continuous flow of heat transfer in domestic and commercial facilities. It should be perfectly designed and well-maintained to prevent damage by corrosion.
Corrosionpedia Explains Cooling Tower
The cooling tower is an essential structure in industrial processes. It eliminates waste heat by distributing the hot water in the cooling tower and also evaporates some by using air. The most common cooling tower uses nozzles at the deck, which evenly distribute the received water into the fill.
The fill reduces the flow speed of the water to maximize the air-water contact. The fill improves the thermal efficiency and the evaporation rate by the use of close packed forms that eventually end in thin streams into the cold water basin. The cycle is repeated by pumping water back into the cooling tower for further heat rejection.
Corrosion is a major factor in limiting the efficiency of the cooling tower. The selection of material in the fill will determine the distribution of the hot water. Therefore, the fill is seen to be made of fiberglass, plastic, or wood. The most common corrosion types found in the cooling tower include:
- Galvanic erosion
- Erosion or Selective Leaching corrosion
- Microbiologically erosion
- Pitting erosion
- Stress Corrosion
- Crevice Corrosion
Control of corrosion will help to prevent the failure expected in these systems. The absorbed materials in the cooling water may also accelerate the rate of corrosion.

I live in WA. My real concern is the despite the spin, the results will turn out to be rather pedestrian and that we shouldn't expect very much that's new from the established players.
I feel that fuel price and availability is a looming issue that few of the major domestic players is addressing in any substantial way.
Having said that, I have more faith in Toyota to be a front runner and most elligible for a big slice of the innovation fund.
I'm out of my box now.
Recently the talk at GMH was E85 (it's part of the problem, not a solution), Diesel, 4 cylinder commodore (hey didn't I have one of those in the '80s - it was a dog) and a hybrid version (no details, but I can guess). There's a lot of scope for tinkering without doing anything very worthwhile.
The glimpses of what Detroit is doing makes me think that they're reading from the wrong book.
The 2008 Detroit motor show, the 4-seat Chrysler Voyager electric is claimed to be 65km/charge, 200KW with a 9.5 second 0-100 time, meaning that it's really heavy, probably about 2.5 tonnes! Anybody suggesting this isn't talking 'green', that was 2008.
Which gets me to a more local issue:
In 60 years, the fuel efficiency of holdens has gone backwards, largely due to the weight gain. The 2009 'Omega' (prophecy?) Commodore weighs 1700kg vs 1050 for the 1948 FX and burns 10.5 l/100km vs 9.5 in 1948. It's better to crash, a lot more expensive to fix and has a heater, but I have difficulty swallowing the marketing hype.
Generally the market analyses revolve around the recovery time of the additional cost of an innovation such as a hybrid. If the more expensive hybrid only reduces the fuel consumption by 20-30%, it's actually not very valuable, since the cost of ownership and level of oil dependency isn't much different.
Without addressing the fundamentals of what the industry is making, this is likely to remain the case.
My analysis of EV performance shows that weight is the critical determinant. It is particularly important at low speed, where most cars spend most of thier time. The weight makes a recent commodore a lousy conversion candidate. The implication is that it'll also make it a lousy hybrid, probably between 7 and 8 l/100km, and likely worse if the hybrid bit is really no more than engine-off idling.
Mass is such a problem because it consumes resourses and results in an uncomfortable escalation of body, suspension and driveline component size, weight and cost.
For this reason I feel that the makers have to address weight before anything else they do will be substantial. And it needs to be substantial like 40 percent.
Hopefully, from the current chaos, new players with some real novelty and elegant solutions may emerge.
The world of electric car components, well established light weight composite manufacturing, which suits low to medium volume, will help enable start-up operators that can deliver what the entrenched makers are unwilling or unable to. It should make for interesting times.
Now to don my asbestos suit for the inevitable retort...

Another year brought another jump in Canada’s emissions of climate-warming gases, making our international commitments seem even harder to reach.
Figures published this month show we emitted 729 million tonnes of greenhouse gases in 2018, the latest figures available. That was an increase of 15 million tonnes from the previous year.
tap here to see other videos from our team.
Environment and Climate Change Canada blamed a cold winter in 2018, and said the carbon tax and other measures had not yet taken effect.
Still, Canada has not shown progress. Back in 2005, we promised to cut our emissions by 17 per cent by this current year. However, the latest figures show we reduced emissions by only about one million tonnes, a fraction of one per cent, by 2018.
We have even more ambitious targets ahead. By 2030, the Paris Agreement commits us to reducing our emissions by 30 per cent from 2005. And by 2050, the Liberal government has promised to reach “net zero” — not adding any more greenhouse gases than we remove from the air.
The stubbornly high emission level “is a reminder that it’s easier to make targets than it is to achieve them,” said Monica Gattinger, who studies energy policy at the University of Ottawa. She is director of a research group called Positive Energy .
“There are a lot of economic, political, social and technical realities to reducing emissions.”
“Committing to targets is one thing. Actually achieving them, I think, is another.”
As for the models of the future, “the only thing that is certain is what emissions have done to date. Nobody has a crystal ball.” If a government predicts that a given policy will have a known impact on emissions, “that remains to be seen. There’s a faith in projections that is unwarranted.”
Progress is still possible, Gattinger said.
“People underestimate what a true accomplishment it was” for the federal and provincial governments to agree on a national framework that gave us a carbon tax, she said. “That was a huge achievement for the country,” although there has been “pushback” from some provincial leaders.
“It’s surprising to me sometimes that we still don’t seem to have grasped that this is much more difficult to do in practice than it is in theory.”
Jason Dion, another energy policy researcher, sees some hope in the latest numbers.
At least, he said, Canada has prevented emissions from rising over the past decade and a half. Dion is director of the mitigation program at the Canadian Institute for Climate Choices , a research group.
“It’s certainly not welcome news that emissions are not going down,” he said. “But I think it’s important for people to bear in mind where they would be if we had chosen to do nothing” years ago, he added.
“The reality is, our emissions would be higher. The economy has been growing, our population has been growing. So the fact that we are only where we were in 2005 — we certainly want more, but it’s not nothing.”
Ontario’s phase-out of coal-fired electricity “had a huge impact,” and so did British Columbia’s carbon tax, he said.
And he expects to see improvements starting soon resulting from policies created later than 2018.
“Some big things like the federal carbon tax and methane regulations hadn’t kicked in” by 2018, he said.
Still, “this is not what we hoped to be seeing and it underscores that we have to do more.”

PGIMER is overloaded as Punjab and other States’ management is lacking behind
Chandigarh Situation is at stake
Noted Advocate and Activist of Chandigarh, Member Rogi Kalyan Smiti, Advocate Ajay Jagga, today wrote a letter to Dr. Harsh Vardhan on the worsening COVID condition of Chandigarh. Though As per him, the administration and PGIMER are on the toe and how long will they be able to sustain as cases are surging like fire in city and PGIMER is not only handling city burden but also handling neighboring States’ COVID cases as well.
Talking only about PGIMER, it has 200 Beds in Nehru Extension Block which is COVID Hospital, managed as 160 for moderate and severe and 40 Beds for Critical cases. Talking on the PGIMER situation, the official Spokesperson Prof Ashok Kumar says that there are no two opinions that with daily cases crossing now even 100, we are in the midst of a big challenge, which can be met only with collaborative efforts. With already having 200 bed dedicated COVID hospital, we are working on modalities to increase the capacity by 100 more beds as directed by the administration.
As on date, 30-bed capacity has already been earmarked in Advanced Paediatric Centre and another 80-bed capacity has been earmarked in NHE, the dedicated COVID Hospital. The other modalities like skill training, deployment of man-power, etc. are already underway to make this additional bed capacity functional soon.
However, in the long run, we have to take care of Non-COVID patients, the services of which have been disturbed since March 2020. It would be in the fitness of things that a model may be adopted where one critical COVID centre for patient capacity as per estimates is developed without hampering the non-COVID services at PGIMER.
Heres the Letter written by Adv Ajay Jagga to Health Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan
Sh. Harsh Vardhan, Union Health Minister, New Delhi
Subject: MEDICAL EMERGENCY IN CHANDIGARH : Critical Care Facilities for COVID-19 Patents of Chandigarh in bad shape; situation is likely to worsen and go out of hands within 15 days, if emergency steps are not taken.
As a resident of Chandigarh and citizen of India and even as Member of Rogi Kalyan Samiti, I feel it is my primary duty, under Constitution of India, to convey that a bizarre situation is developing in Chandigarh, as the premier health care centre for COVID patients i.e. Nehru Hospital under the management of PGIMER Chandigarh and even at Special COVID Hospital/Centre in Sector 48, Chandigarh, has NO BEDS for Chandigarh residents who require critical care due to COVID-19. As per my information in the Nehru Hospital (COVID Centre) out of 140 critical care patients facility only patients 50 are from Chandigarh and rest are from other states. Similarly in COVID CENTRE of Sector 48, under the GMCH-32, Chandigarh, out of 34 COVID patients facility, only 20 patients are from Chandigarh and rest from other states. Even in OPD side, in GMCH-32, out of 177 patients admitted ( in August – 2020) in GMCH-32 (non-Covid) app 62 are from Chandigarh and rest from other states.
Now, the way number of patients is going up in Chandigarh i.e. app 100 per day, in another 15 days, we may have 1500 patients from Chandigarh, and even is 1/3rd require critical care or hospitalization where do they do go.
Sir, it is humbly prayed that emergent instructions may please be issued to PGIMER and GMCH to think of Chandigarh Resident and some beds likes minimum 50% should be kept for Chandigarh, otherwise where will the residents of Chandigarh go.
Sir, situation will become worst from bad, if nothing is done, for residents of Chandigarh. Sir, if 75% beds or space is given to residents from other states, then Chandigarh residents has not place to go for Critical care.
Sir, situation is very alarming and require not urgent but emergent attention, so that there is enough space for the resident of Chandigarh in COVID-19 hospitals i.e. Nehru Hospital under PGIMER and Sector 48 Covid Care Centre. And even OPD facilities/beds etc should be there for residents of Chandigarh.
THE PRAYER IS THAT THE NEHRU HOSPITAL UNDER PGI, COVID-CENTRE 48 SECTOR, GMCH-32 must ramp up the facilities for residents of Chandigarh. Sir, at least 500 beds for Chandigarh residents are a must as of now apart from the existing (if 50% is kept for Chandigarh residents). If workable a day to day situation of beds and their occupants be declared online so that there is complete transparency. PGIMER is an autonomous body, hence only Min of Health, GOI, can save the residents of Chandigarh.
Sir, you may call for a ground report of entire COVID facilities at Chandigarh.
Thanking you. Yours truly AJAY JAGGA, Member, ROGI KALYAN SAMITI

Finding a place to sit and rest our tired legs turned out to be difficult as most of the food outlets are crowded with people standing and queuing for seats.
Spotted this relatively new restaurant that serves some variety of dim sum and food items.
Ordered the following :
- Deep Fried Mango Prawn Roll ( $5.80 ) - quite a disappointment as we hardly taste any mango. Only saw a few thin strips with small bits of prawns.
- Crispy Duck Roll ( $4.80 ) - this item is much better with the soft texture of duck meat and right sauce. It was palatable.
- Yuzu Marmite Chicken ( $15.50 ) - expensive considering that these are bite sized chicken meat but the marmite seasoning was well coated on the semi crispy meat.
- Baby French Beans with Dried Shrimps ( $12.80 ) - another expensive dish but serving was quite a big portion.
Overall, we may visit again for other dim sum items but not the dishes as most of them are over-pr...

‘If we abandon a cross-section of the community in our inner cities, they have a way of bringing themselves back into the political narrative-a way that is not good for them or for society’
– Diane Abbott MP
“I know how difficult it is to bring children up in this area where there are limited resources. However, this young man stood out like a beacon and would have been a role model for all the young people who live around here”
The words of former Tower Hamlets Mayor, Doros Ullah, as he commented on the murder of Ajmol Alom, a 16 year old student who was fatally stabbed several days ago. Mr Ullah went on to criticise the government for not resourcing youth services well enough and was joined in his criticisms by Rukan Hassan, a gang mediation project co-ordinator. According to him the severe cuts left his programme of summer projects effectively ‘running on fumes’.
£877m the sum spent on youth services throughout Britain between 2011 and 2012, £177m more than the monies set aside by the DfE for the construction of one academy; considerably less than the amount overspent by the DfE on all the schools which have converted to academies in the same period (£1bn).
£1,184m the amount of money invested in youth services two years ago, 26% higher than it is now. It might be hard for some to understand why youth workers, MPs, members of various communities and youth project co-ordinators are complaining so bitterly about these cuts.
After all, it is clear that young people are increasingly immersed in social networking, texting frenetically on their Smart Phones and Blackberrys as if their lives depended on it. Surely this diminishes any need for the extensive provision of youth services across the country? But then many of the youth service projects being run have little to do with the affluent youngsters whose parents can afford to keep them entertained at home and so keep them safe.
After the riots in August 2011, it became clear that one child’s Blackberry is another child’s crime facilitator.
‘Everyone in edmonton enfield wood green everywhere in north link up [meet] at enfield town station at 4 o clock sharp!! Start leaving ur yards [homes] n linking up with your niggas. Fuck da feds [police], bring your ballys and your bag trollys, cars vans, hammers the lot!!’
The message was sent through the free BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) network, a network which whilst intended for decidedly benign usuage became a key tool for many who participated in the riots. One ex-gang member explained how it was that she and many others from economically deprived communities across England were able to afford a handset.
“I pay £5 a month then I get to use it for a month. I can go on the internet as well, for a fiver.”
The cheap price of some of the hand sets helped massively, on the black market a Blackberry Curve handset could cost on average £60.00. With the help of BBM rioters were able to co-ordinate their rioting and looting with a degree of accuracy that left many wondering exactly why these youngsters were failing to engage successfully with society at large.
It was suggested by a partner at DLA Piper that the rioters weren’t using BBM because they thought it was secure, and he’s right they weren’t, they were using it because they knew it was. The police having considerable knowledge about organised crime gangs were able to use the same service to track down rioters with consent from the company who created it.
After the riots it became clear that of the four thousand people arrested, 42% were between 10 and 21 years old. Two thirds of the youngsters involved had special needs and almost all of them had been excluded from school. These were the kinds of youngsters for whom the provision of youth services would have been key and yet the government had made it clear that the provision of these services was not a priority.
Camila Batmanghelidjh, is the founder of Kids Company, a charity which currently supports 17,000 children, 97% of whom come off the streets (rather than being referred by social services) having heard about the charity through school, and 87% of whom are homeless, as well as being mentally and emotionally traumatised in any number of ways. Unsurprisingly, many of the children accessing the charity’s services are not doing very well at school, and are prone to demonstrating ‘anti-social’ behaviour.
Behaviour which though some may perceive it to be morally perverse , actually enables them to survive in communities that are severely impoverished and dangerous places for these youngsters to survive let alone thrive in. In such communities the only thing that counts is survival, any attempt to define these children as morally flawed must fail, since these children are constantly having to radically adapt to their environments in order to survive.
In order for their behaviour to be transformed they need the long term support of a range of professionals, from teaching staff, to psychologists, social workers, foster carers and even lawyers. However, the cuts to council services are such that frequently the charity has difficulty persuading ‘commissioning agents’ to provide funding for the basic care of such children.
Camila had this to say about the kind of world we are creating for some children and their families,
“What you’ve done is you’ve made large numbers of people so exhausted with living, so fed up with being disenfranchised, so disempowered, that they’ve gotten to a point where they don’t care anymore about what happens to them and they can fight dirty.”
Ironically, it wouldn’t take much to turn this situation around, perhaps a grant or two to professionals like Miss Batmanghelidjh, allocated funding for youth centres and refuge centres for children such as these, oh, and maybe a boarding school? £700 million in funding ought to cover that much I reckon.
The point being that when it comes to enabling the nation’s youth to achieve and aspire there really are two sides to the equation. And how easy it is to forget that and wind up with a situation where somebody’s talented son or daughter fails to realise their future; because they had the misfortune to cross the path of a young person whose future was never given much thought, since it was not really considered a ‘priority’.

The 2021 Nissan Silvia project might actually become a reality much sooner than expected. This was one of the more legendary brands that the Nissan auto company had in its recent years, but unfortunately the car was pulled from production and it was never heard of again. The last model was sold from 1999 to 2003 and although it still offered great sales numbers, they have decided to pull the plug on the car in order to make room for the upcoming GT-R, 350 and 370Z models that Nissan was focusing on.
Although the brand has perhaps been lost, the interest for this model has never subsided with the fans. Seeing this car back is actually a dream come true for most, it seems like it has been a whole lifetime waiting for it to come back. The released pictures of the model showcase the cars new potential and the spy photos were actually the trigger that made all this hype and the return of the Nissan Silvia a reality.
The plans for the original were that the Nissan Silvia was supposed to be the company’s flagship car, but these plans did not materialize. The second run might prove to be much more effective for the production of the new Silvia brand. The release date is still far away but it seems like a perfect time to offer a review to our fans so they get prepared for the release.
When is the Release Date for the 2021 Nissan Silvia Planned for?
The newest and upcoming 2021 Nissan Silvia is a model that people have been waiting for years, so they will not mind a few more. Based on the current information the car has just finished its early stages of development and is entering the second phase. But even this places the release date two years away, somewhere at the start or middle of 2021.
Potential Price of the Car
It is still too early to talk about the price numbers of the 2021 Nissan Silvia model, but we can make predictions. It will possible start sales at around 24,000 dollars, but these rates may escalate to a bit more, depending on the enhancements that they implement in the end.
What is the Exterior Redesign?
The newest 2021 Nissan Silvia will probably adopt a combination of features for its final product. The model adopts some elements from the original version and also combines them with some newer Nissan model cues. A marriage of some heritage details and some modern ones is the perfect balance for the car. The original model was a small car with a low roof and a coupe shape. Some of these elements will be visible for the final product, but it remains to be see which ones.
The exterior design might also adopt some elements seen in the current GT-R and 370Z versions. These cars are already adopting a new “V-Motion” design scheme which will be seen in these models for the first time. We might see it continued in the given model and it might also improve this new car immensely.
The interior of the 2021 Nissan Silvia will receive a lot of updates. The original model had a very minimalistic design, but the contemporary version will change that. The previous look was not so interesting to the crowds but now they are not only making the interior fun to drive in but also very much functional. But they also want to keep the offer in the same price region as some other similar Nissan models, so we can base the offer on that.
The car will also adopt a slew of modern elements and features which are supposed to address the infotainment factor and also the functionality. The comfort rates will be made by adding new materials and soft touch surfaces for the majority of the cabin. We are looking at a very nice update for the Silvia which will be a joy to drive in.
The future of the 2021 Nissan Silvia will probably come with an all new modern powertrain version. For now there are no official confirmations made but some leaks say that the chosen product might be the 1.6 liter turbocharged inline 4 petrol engine. This engine was previously used for some Renault cars and in that sense was able to make 225 hp, and the goal is to make the output beyond 200 horsepower and 200 lb-ft of torque for this car. One of the more certain things is that this is going to be a rear-wheel drive car and will probably use a six speed manual transmission.
0-60 mph Acceleration and Specs
The acceleration ability of the new 2021 Nissan Silvia was not measured and it probably will not be until the release date comes. What is certain is that this car will be fast and maybe faster than other models in the segment. This will probably mean that we are looking at a 0-60 mph acceleration ability of under 4 seconds and a top speed which might coincide with 160 mph.
Possible Fuel Economy
This is yet another thing which is hard to predict for the 2021 Nissan Silvia. The car will not be fuel efficient, no matter how small it is or how light it gets. It will help it to become fast but the fuel that it uses will come in loads. This is not a priority for the model and we can say that it will not matter for the people who want this car. The estimated EPA ratings will be given once some more light is shed on the powertrain of the vehicle.
Are there going to be Some Dimension Changes?
There is a great possibility that the 2021 Nissan Silvia gets some dimension changes. The car will be more then suitable to expand the length and overall size. The old model was a very small one and people would like to see more space on the inside. There are talks of a new platform also being used and it will certainly help the car get more space on the inside. The comfort will be a great upgrade for the car and it will more than certainly be one of the better moves that Nissan will pull with the redesigned Silvia.
The newest 2021 Nissan Silvia will have to address the safety factors. Since the old car was discontinued back in 2003, we do not have any reliable rates to go into. The safety crash scores will be made as soon as the car is established and ready for testing. But until then we can predict an expanded safety offer for the car which will include some standard forms of equipment and also an expanded offer which will probably provide us with an advanced setup. The model will also include some specific safety technology seen in the newest Nissan models as well.
With the 2021 Nissan Silvia model there are a lot of similar vehicles that are already present in the market. This segment is already packed with a lot of great vehicles so it will take something special for the new Silvia to emerge as one of the best. It did not work the last time so we will see how they fare this time and whether they manage to offer something special for this new car. The models to look into in the segment include Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ.

Japan ‘rooting for Donald Trump’ in China trade war, but urges US not to ‘monopolise’ any benefits
- Tamaki Tsukada, deputy director general for economic affairs within Japan’s foreign ministry, is keeping a close eye on any deal with President Xi Jinping
- Chinese economists and officials are studying the history of Japan’s own trade war with the US in the 1980s for guidance on the current situation
A Japanese minister has urged the United States not to “monopolise” the concessions it extracts from China as part of any trade war deal, urging US President Donald Trump to share them with the rest of the world.
Tamaki Tsukada, deputy director general for economic affairs within Japan’s foreign ministry, said: “We should be vigilant about what kind of agreement is reached between the US and China, and make sure that Trump will not monopolise whatever benefits he extracts out of China.”
Tsukada, speaking at an event in Hong Kong on Thursday, said that while most countries are against any form of trade conflict in theory, many will be “rooting for Trump” in his ongoing tariff war with China, hoping that it leads to real structural reform within China, the benefits of which can be enjoyed by other trading nations.
“We need to recognise that all the heavy lifting will have to be done by the US. There’s a kind of alter ego of criticising on the surface, but at the same time rooting for Trump to get more out of China,” Tsukada told the Asia Trade Summit, organised by The Economist magazine.
Negotiations between the US and China are continuing, with the US suspending the planned tariff increase from 10 per cent to 25 per cent.
The deadline was due to be on Friday, but no further hard deadline will be imposed, the office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) confirmed this week.
The South China Morning Post’s publishing partner POLITICO reported on Thursday that a document detailing the proposed trade deal, stretching to 140 pages, has been written and that it includes a “significant enforcement mechanism”.
If China is found to violate any provision of the deal, tariffs would “snap back” into place, or even be expanded.
China, meanwhile, would not be allowed to retaliate with tariffs, under the terms of the deal, POLITICO reported.
The deal is pending the agreement of President Xi Jinping, who is expected to meet with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida later this month.
Many are looking at the US-Japan trade war in the 1980s for historical guidance as to what will happen and indeed, the parallels are great.
“It is important that [the deal] is transparent, and the benefits are extended, that’s the lesson we can share with our Chinese colleagues out of our lessons in the 1980s and 1990s,” Tsukada said.
Japan was, at the time, an exporting powerhouse, a world leader in the production of many household items, cars and cutting edge technology such as semiconductors.
At its peak, Japan accounted for nearly 60 per cent of America’s total trade deficit through the late-1980s and early-1990s.
But it in the mid-80s, it agreed to punitive trade reform that would scythe the deficit, under pressure from then US president Ronald Reagan and his trade negotiators, among whom was current US trade representative Robert Lighthizer.
Under the terms of 1985’s Plaza Accord, Japan agreed to strengthen the yen against the US dollar, in order to make its exports more expensive and cut the trade deficit.
It also agreed to open up key parts of its economy, including its semiconductor market, in a move that allowed US companies to gain greater market share in Japan.
The response to these measures are often blamed for Japan’s “lost decade” in economic terms. The Bank of Japan lowered interest rates, causing bubbles in the property and stock markets, then years of deflation.
Masahiro Kawai, director general at the Economic Research Institute for Northeast Asia and former Japanese deputy vice-minister for finance, said on the sidelines of this week’s Asia Trade Summit that Chinese officials and economists are studying the Japanese response to the US-Japan trade war very closely.
“I speak to a lot of private companies and economists in the Chinese government and they want reform,” he said, adding that officials within the People’s Bank of China, the central bank, are aggressively seeking structural reforms.
Kawai said that the US-Japan trade war in itself was not to blame for Japan’s lost decade, rather it was the Bank of Japan’s delayed reaction to the bubbles in the market.
In the case of the US-China trade war, Kawai suggested that even if Trump and Xi finalise an agreement at the mooted Mar-a-Lago signing ceremony, it is unlikely to ease tensions significantly.
“I expect some kind of deal between China and the US, but the structural, fundamental issues are very difficult to resolve,” Kawai said.
“So even after Trump-Xi meeting, the conflict will continue, which will have negative impact on investment sentiment. Many companies have to continue to search the best way to adjust.”

|Falcons soar in OT to drop Twisters into tie atop 14A |
|Posted: Wednesday, February 3, 2010 5:28 pm |
|Union City now has company atop the District 14A standings. |
Ninth-ranked Lake County outscored the No. 5 Tornadoes 13-4 in overtime and dropped them into a first-place tie with Humboldt after beating UC 84-75 Tuesday night in Tiptonville.
The loss, which also snapped a seven-game winning streak, left the Twisters (16-9, 10-2) and No. 2 H’boldt (16-6, 10-2) deadlocked for the top spot in 14A with just two league games to play before the postseason begins.
LC (18-9, 9-3) is now a game back in third place after beating Union City for the first time in three meetings this season.
Should UC and Humboldt both win its remaining district games, a coin flip will decide the No. 1 seed in the 14A tournament. That flip will actually happen this morning in a meeting of league coaches to determine the particulars of the event.
After erasing an eight-point deficit in the final 48 seconds and forcing the extra session on Rakim Gaston’s tip-in at the regulation buzzer, the Tornadoes finally fell victim to their own inability to stop LC’s dribble penetration and the Falcons’ superior rebounding.
“We had ourselves in a good position as far as winning the district after playing well for a good stretch, but then we just failed to execute the basic fundamentals,” UC head coach Shane Sisco said of his team’s hard-fought loss.
“We’d talked about the penetration and rebounding specifically for several days and worked on it extensively. We just didn’t get the job done.”
Lake County ended up out-rebounding the locals 52-39, and the Twisters made just 7-of-33 3-point shots as key factors in their demise.
Union City led by as much as 25-14 in the first half behind eight quick points from K.J. Brooks and 12 more over the first two frames from Gaston, who finished with a career-high 22.
A 17-6 Falcon burst before intermission, though, left the count deadlocked at 31 at the break.
LC pulled out to a 53-46 lead in the third stanza and expanded that to 10 early in the fourth. Gaston’s third-chance follow shot sent the contest in OT, though, after the host team had committed a critical turnover at the five-second mark.
Josh Battee had 15 points and Tyler Steward 13 to give Union City three players in double digits.
Patrick Robertson matched Gaston’s 22-point outing for Lake County, which had three players score 20 or more.
Lake Co. 64, UC 23 (G)
The fifth-ranked Lady Falcons (23-3, 11-1) maintained their stranglehold on the District 14A lead with a convincing triumph over the struggling UC girls.
Union City was missing head coach Eddie Suiter as he served the first of a state-mandated two-game suspension after being ejected the team’s last outing vs. Humboldt.
The Lady Twisters (8-17, 3-9) were guilty of five more turnovers (28) than they had points and made just 24 percent of their shots in losing for the seventh time in their last nine games.
Just four Union City players scored in the contest with Shenisha Huff tallying a team-high 14 markers as the only one with more than four.
LC scored the game’s first seven points and never looked back.
In contrast, UC didn’t make its first basket until nearly seven minutes were gone in the opening quarter.
Already up 16-5 at the first-quarter horn, Lake County got three consecutive 3-pointers from Mariah Matthews — who made five from beyond the arc in the first half alone — to take a commanding 35-12 at the half.
The outcome was never in doubt afterward.
Union City will play a makeup game at home vs. Greenfield on Thursday, then hosts Halls Friday night.

At the start of the eighth standard, one among my friends posted a video on facebook or myspace with the webcam on his own laptop and plenty of graphic impacts as an exciting waste of time. I made the choice to rob his own strategy, making a silly little clip that I designed for only my friends to view. This option choice to generate and publish video replaced every single thing.
I didn’t host the ideal security setting turned on, so anybody could see simple member profile as long as they were going to. Obviously, a couple of school bullies realized the videos, acquired they and re-uploaded they to YouTube with the statements area fired up. A single person authored “Eric is a r***rd that goes to my faculty.” As someone who is found on the Macon chicas escort autism spectrum, that truly injure. People would walk up to me inside the hall, quoting phrases from video and would just have a good laugh at me. It actually was awful, although i really do not just take into account the situation nowadays, I could not prevent considering it for quite some time. This was one specific disturbance in longer particular past of are marginalized and bullied.
About yearly eventually, I started to recognize that I happened to be homosexual. Winston Churchill high-school experienced a Gay-Straight association, and I could possibly have adored to sign up inside. But we stayed off because everybody in the nightclub got quickly presumed is gay. Having been reluctant to be noticed as gay because I previously had been bullied for its videos as well as my personal general sociable clumsiness, and that I recognized are “the gay kid” could simply intensify my favorite scenario. This could be a terrible factor to admit, because no son or daughter deserves to experience intimidated considering their impairment or this lady sex. No son or daughter deserves to think threatened at all after all. But I experienced threatened.
Stuff has significantly improved with my life since highschool. I am happy that We have children that likes me, that I have good friends which help me personally which I live in a progressive community like Montgomery district, Maryland. Many people are less fortunate. If LGBTQ young people with impairments commonly given the esteem the two have earned, the outcomes is actually life-and-death.
As reported by the Trevor task, LGB young people are almost five times as more likely to bring attempted committing suicide compared to heterosexual youthfulness. Forty per cent of transgender older people noted creating made a suicide attempt, 92 % of these vendor period of 25. LGB kids that sourced from extremely rejecting individuals are generally 8.4 moments as prone to have got attempted self-destruction as LGB friends that said no or lower levels of family rejection. And each bout of LGBT adversity, such as actual or mental harassment or mistreatment, boosts the possibility of self-harming activities by 2.5 days generally. These stats is unsatisfactory in 2018, and culture will need to work harder to make certain that everyone knows that they’re highly valued and that they count.
Now I am honestly homosexual, publicly of the autism variety, and proud of which Really. Among lesbian, gay and bisexual grownups, 30 % of men and 36 percentage of women furthermore recognize as possessing a disability. The disability group intersects collectively some other fraction team, while the LGBTQ area isn’t any exclusion.
Needs people to truly have the very same solutions that You will find. However for that to happen, stigmas against LGBTQ customers and people with disabilities have to go away completely. The reason I made the choice becoming a National control man at RespectAbility is that i wish to allow make a world just where no child may need to browse what I experience. Needs every LGBTQ people and each and every guy with a disability feeling comfortable developing being happy with who they are.

We are in the first week of the New Year. A friend sent me this thought that I share below. It has been shared many times. I don’t know who wrote it, but it wasn’t me. I merely found it beautiful. Hopefully, everyone who reads it applies it.
I don’t wish you a wonderful year where everything is good. That is a childish and utopian thought.
I want you to be encouraged to look at yourself and love yourself as you are.
May you have enough self-love to fight many battles and the humility to know that there are unwinnable battles that are not worth fighting for.
I wish you could accept that there are realities that are unchangeable and that there are others, that if you run from the place of the complaint, you can change. That you do not allow the “I cannot” and that you recognize the “I do not want.”
I wish you to listen to your truth and speak it, fully aware that it is only your truth, not that of the other. That you expose yourself to what you fear because it is the only way to overcome fear.
That you learn to tolerate “black spots” in others because you also have yours, which cancels the possibility of making a claim.
Do not condemn yourself for being wrong; you are not almighty.
That you grow, to where and when you want. I do not wish you that 2022 brings you happiness. I wish you to be happy, whatever the reality you have to live.

It was a place conceived in liberty, yet threatened by the forces of oppression and evil. It was a place where fanatics -- political and religious, foreign and domestic--sharpened their swords to attack an innocent populace whose love of freedom was matched only by its lack of irony. It was a sick place in need of sick heroes. And so they came: PORNO GIRL, whose consumption of filth was merely a disguise to conceal her purity of soul...

A common practice of President Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is to disregard the constraints of our immigration laws in order to accomplish the administration’s preferred immigration policy. I have detailed a number of examples throughout Biden’s term, including the abusive use of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to grant amnesty-lite to hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens, an unlawful categorical application of the parole authority to allow visa-less aliens into the country, and impermissibly giving U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) asylum officers (instead of immigration judges) the ability to grant asylum to unlawful border crossers.
Emboldened by these past examples, DHS has taken a new regulatory action that all but signals the Biden administration does not believe the rules apply to it. On May 3, USCIS announced a temporary final rule (TFR) that automatically extends the validity period of a work permit from 180 days to 540 days for certain applicants seeking to renew their work permits. Many of the work permit categories eligible for this auto-extension are earmarked for illegal aliens, including those who simply filed an asylum application that the government has yet to adjudicate and those with TPS.
If last week’s press release is the first time you heard about this rule, that’s because DHS published it without giving the American public any advance notice, in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). DHS also failed to show up to a scheduled meeting on April 22 with myself and Jessica Vaughan while the rule was still under the review of the White House’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), as required under Executive Order (EO) 12866.
EO 12866 Meeting No-Show. I will start with the Biden administration’s refusal to convene the 12866 meeting with the Center that it scheduled and confirmed because of how brazen that action is in the scheme of regulatory compliance.
President Bill Clinton issued EO 12866 in 1993 with the preamble saying, “The American people deserve a regulatory system that works for them, not against them. ... We do not have such a regulatory system today.” The preamble continues, “The objectives of this Executive order are to enhance planning and coordination with respect to both new and existing regulations; to reaffirm the primacy of Federal agencies in the regulatory decision-making process; to restore the integrity and legitimacy of regulatory review and oversight; and to make the process more accessible and open to the public.” (Emphasis added.)
Section 6(a) of the EO establishes the responsibilities of the executive branch when pursuing rulemaking, notably that “Each agency shall (consistent with its own rules, regulations, or procedures) provide the public with meaningful participation in the regulatory process. In particular, before issuing a notice of proposed rulemaking, each agency should, where appropriate, seek the involvement of those who are intended to benefit from and those expected to be burdened by any regulation (including, specifically, State, local, and tribal officials).” (Emphasis added.)
In sum, EO 12866, which is still in effect and binding on the executive branch, is meant to empower the American public to be engaged with the federal government during the rulemaking process.
In practice, this EO has been interpreted to allow any member of the regulated public to request a meeting with OIRA and the relevant agency to share their views (for or against) any regulation under OIRA review. Opponents of President Trump’s immigration policies frequently submitted requests for EO 12866 meetings for the numerous immigration regulations we were developing, and every time, we staffed those meetings with career subject matter experts from the originating agency (in my case, USCIS, and also DHS and OIRA). The government is not required to respond to anything raised at these meetings but they are required to show up to a scheduled meeting and let the stakeholder say his or her piece for up to 30 minutes.
The Center had a confirmed EO 12866 meeting for the “Temporary Increase of the Automatic Extension Period of Employment Authorization and Documentation for Certain Renewal Applicants” rule on Friday, April 22, at 3 p.m., the date and time set by the OIRA staffer reviewing the rule on behalf of the White House. The confirmed scheduling of this meeting is public record and in the period between confirming the meeting and the scheduled meeting date, I received numerous emails from aliens with expiring work permits seeking guidance on when the rule will publish and who will benefit. I include this anecdote only to show that people were aware that the Center had this meeting scheduled.
Yet, as detailed by Stephan Dinan in the Washington Times, Vaughan and I tried for 30 minutes to log into the call but OIRA never opened the conference line; numerous emails to our OIRA contact that day and subsequently have been ignored. As I mentioned above, the government only had to send a few staffers to listen to Vaughan's and my spiel for 30 minutes and it would have satisfied their obligations under EO 12866. The brazen no-show is baffling given how easy it is to comply with the meeting requirement, not to mention disrespectful.
Whether the Biden administration likes it or not, opponents of its policies, including former officials from the previous administration, are members of the regulated public and entitled to the same opportunities afforded under EO 12866 as its supporters. Imagine the scandal that would have ensued in the media if Trump’s DHS had behaved the same way.
Bypassing Notice and Comment Violates the APA. If DHS and OIRA had appeared at the EO 12866 meeting, I would have told them that issuing this regulation as a temporary final rule violates the APA’s “notice and comment” requirements. According to the APA, before the executive branch makes a regulatory change it generally must first publish a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) in the Federal Register to “give interested persons an opportunity to participate in the rule making through submission of written data, views, or arguments with or without opportunity for oral presentation.”
An exception to this “notice and comment” requirement exists “when the agency for good cause finds (and incorporates the finding and a brief statement of reasons therefor in the rules issued) that notice and public procedure thereon are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.” A January 2016 Congressional Research Service report entitled, “The Good Cause Exception to Notice and Comment Rulemaking: Judicial Review of Agency Action” concedes that, “What precisely constitutes good cause is not explicit from the APA’s text.” However, the CRS explains that the good cause exception is not a broad, catch-all authority and has constraints, namely that it is applicable for (1) emergencies; (2) “contexts where prior notice would subvert the underlying statutory scheme”; and (3) laws where Congress expressly waives the APA requirement.
What basis does DHS claim it can auto-extend work permits without first seeking notice and comment? The USCIS press release makes no reference to utilizing a good cause exception, but USCIS director Ur Jaddou is quoted as saying, “As USCIS works to address pending [work permit] caseloads, the agency has determined that the current 180-day automatic extension for employment authorization is currently insufficient. This temporary rule will provide those [aliens] otherwise eligible for the automatic extension an opportunity to maintain employment and provide critical support for their families, while avoiding further disruption for U.S. employers.” Reporters received a similar justification from unnamed political appointees, with the Wall Street Journal being told, “We need time to get back to normal or better than normal on our processing times, and no one should lose their ability to work because we need that extra time,” and the Washington Times summarized the USCIS justification as, “The agency said the good cause was the hardship immigrants would face over lost jobs.”
Does this explanation pass muster under the “emergencies” prong of good cause? As explained in the CRS report, the answer is a resounding “No.” Citing a Fifth Circuit case, CRS writes, “the ‘mere existence’ of a deadline is usually insufficient to establish good cause.” Citing Ninth Circuit and D.C. Circuit cases, CRS explains, “Instead, some ‘exigency’ is required, independent of the deadline itself, which merits dispensing with [the notice and comment] requirements.” Using the same D.C. Circuit case, CRS hammers home a critical restriction: “Importantly, courts have precluded efficiency goals and concern for agency convenience from qualifying as exigencies.”
The official position of DHS is that they have “good cause” because USCIS adjudicators are overwhelmed with the volume of work permits to process, both initial ones and renewals. This is nothing new as the USCIS press release notes that for “several years USCIS has been in a precarious financial situation that has impaired the efficient completion of caseloads.” There are two key aspects of this statement that undermine any claim to good cause. First is the reference to “several years”, which shows that the agency has struggled with workloads for some time, not just suddenly and unexpectedly. Additionally, the use of “efficient” as part of the stated goal is precisely one of the words used in the CRS report to show when good cause is not justified.
Given the scrutiny and pushback the career attorneys at DHS and USCIS gave us with every immigration policy the Trump political team pursued, I find it hard to believe not a single one of them was familiar with the above-mentioned case law or the CRS report, which is easily found from a google search of “notice and comment good cause exception”. Did the political attorneys override objections that the good cause argument lacked merit or did no one bother raising it because there is support for the objective this rule purports to achieve?
Unironically, the USCIS press release also explains the need for the rule by stating, “In 2021, before USCIS could recover from these fiscal and operational impacts, there was a sudden and dramatic increase in EAD initial and renewal filings.” You don’t say! President Biden took office in January 2021 and his administration has accelerated the number of new work permits for illegal aliens through TPS initial designations and unlawful “redesignations”, categorical parole of un-vetted Afghans and visa-less Ukrainians, and a continuation of DACA, just to name a few examples.
What happened next was predictable. USCIS was already overworked, but the Biden administration intentionally compounded the problem by allowing close to a million illegal aliens the ability to obtain a work permit. The political pressure to approve initial work permits pushed the renewals down the line and very quickly the clock on those documents began to run out. This led to outcry and pressure from the immigration attorneys and business groups who utilize work-authorized aliens. DHS is trying to avoid accountability by extending existing work permits, but USCIS is never going to catch up because Secretary Mayorkas will undoubtedly continue to allow more illegal aliens the ability to get a work permit.
There is no good cause to change the length of work permits without giving the American people the opportunity to weigh in. This rule should be challenged and successfully struck down (or enjoined) for violating the APA. And any alien whose work authorize lapses as a result of delayed adjudication of a work permit renewal should cast the blame directly at Secretary Mayorkas.


Like many IT Professionals and enthusiasts, I have a lab. Mind happens to sit on my laptop and various components will be spun up / down / torn apart as I need.
One I happened to keep together was my Domain Controller. Sure they're not difficult to spin up and bring online with Windows PowerShell.
But this particular one I had MDT and WDS on there. I used it as a standalone appliance for Deploying Server 2016 as I needed. It works and works well.
Last night I fired it up and went to deploy a Server 2016 box only to find out nothing was grabbing an IP address.
I checked over logs and scanned through. Active Directory was good but over and over DHCP was complaining it couldn't find an Active Directory controller... on the same box.
I did a bit of digging in our local forums and ran across a user with a similar issue. If you looked at the DHCP Server it showed up as a 169.x.x.x (IPIPA) address. Running Ipconfig I couldn't see it anywhere but this user mentioned that the issue turned out to be a second network card, with no cable attached. The answer was "Disable the NIC"
Sure enough on my Virtual box I had a second NIC I installed and forgot about. Disabled it internally on the server, bounced once and life was good.
Silly me, I should have cleaned up my old NIC's 🙂

This study shows that kitchen-based nutrition education delivered in the virtual environment, when compared with in-person programming as well as culinary medicine programming itself, is associated with a higher likelihood of MedDiet adherence and lifestyle medicine counselling competence in medical trainees enrolled at partner sites across the USA. However, further progress is still required as virtual teaching kitchen education was not significantly associated with several important nutritional competencies related to ASCVD risk reduction.
Do you think practical implementation of Virtual teaching kitchen classes for medical trainees to prevent cardiovascular disease is possible ?

Oil patch insider: Enforcer or banker? Some banks defy pressure from climate activists
Following Goldman Sachs mid-December announcement that it would stop financing new Arctic drilling, the big U.S. investment bank began to back-peddle.
On Jan. 21 at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland David Solomon, CEO of Goldman Sachs, told the meeting of business and world leaders that his bank would continue to raise funds for oil and gas companies, per a report in Daily on Energy.
“If you’re looking for a line, there’s not a line. There’s a transition that’s going on, and my view is this is going to be a multi-decade transition where we see changes in the way people allocate capital,” Solomon said in a panel discussion. “Should we not raise money for a company that is a carbon company or a fossil fuel company? The answer is no, we’re not going to (stop doing) that.”
The backlash from banks, Daily on Energy reported, came after climate activists, including 16 year old Greta Thunberg, demanded at Davos that companies, banks, and governments “immediately” halt investments in fossil fuel exploration and production, and divest from fossil fuels. (The theme of this year’s World Economic Forum: Stakeholders for a Cohesive and Sustainable World.)
Mike Corbat, CEO of Citibank, said Jan. 21 in Davos that it is not the role of banks to choose winners and losers.
“I don’t want to be the sharp end of the spear, meaning I don’t want to have to be the one telling (companies) or enforcing standards in an industry or business. … We don’t want to find ourselves being the person that dictates winners and losers,” Corbat said, according to a Financial Times report. “A bank’s job is to support the communities in which it operates. It is not to dictate outcomes.”
According to the FT report, Brian Duperreault, CEO of AIG, “echoed Mr. Solomon’s line: while he stressed that AIG is embracing sustainability (partly under pressure of its own employees), he also said that he is not ready to impose a blanket ban on offering insurance to coal companies yet.”
A week before the Davos conference, BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, promised to make climate change central to its investment strategy. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink met with government and finance officials in Davos to explain the company’s new approach, per press reports.
“Climate change has become a defining factor in companies’ long-term prospects,” he was reported as saying. “Climate change is almost invariably the top issue that clients around the world raise with BlackRock. From Europe to Australia, South America to China, Florida to Oregon, investors are asking how they should modify their portfolios.”
Following the money?A third major financial institution also appeared to cave to pressure from climate activists: Bank of America, but its decision reflected more of a “follow the money” philosophy.
Per a report in Oil and Gas 360, “Bank of America has committed $300 billion to sustainable investments over the next decade. Since 2007, when the company issued its first Environmental Business Initiative, Bank of America has deployed more than $126 billion to environmental business efforts.”
“There is a huge opportunity, whether it is green bonds or different types of financing for solar installations or wind installations,” Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan said, noting that as more companies seek carbon neutrality, it will drive demand for new technology, though it will require power companies, above all, to make real progress, per the Oil and Gas 360 report.
“What we’re trying to say is, you deliver profits and success for customers, employees and shareholders. What managers like Larry Fink are saying is, success is along these dimensions. … The key is to think about the balance and let industry and owners drive it,” Moynihan was quoted as saying in the Oil and Gas 360 report.
Moynihan rejected skepticism about the effort as being more public relations than substantive. “People say, ‘Isn’t this greenwash?’ Which part of $300 billion do you understand is not greenwash? This is not some small process; it is a business force.”
Is the American dream in trouble?
The results of the new Edelman Trust Barometer set the stage for the opening of the forum, per The Hill.
The poll found that a majority of people around the world believe capitalism is doing more harm than good. In the U.S. 47% of those polled believe that capitalism does more harm than good.
Alaska’s reactionWhen Goldman Sachs said in mid-December that it was no longer financing new Arctic drilling, Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy said the state was going to reassess its relationship with Goldman Sachs.
“I think it’s unfortunate,” Dunleavy said in an interview on FOX Business’ Varney & Co. “We do a lot of business with Goldman Sachs. We’re going have to reevaluate that, have a discussion with them.”
So, what is the status of this reevaluation?
Deputy director of communications for the governor’s office, Jeff Turner, told Petroleum News Jan. 21 that “a meeting between the governor’s office and the leadership of Goldman-Sachs will take place to continue the discussion.”

Welded steel pipe arrival and test
After seamless pipe raw materials purchase, today seamless pipe raw materials to the factory again. For some water conservancy projects and other low-pressure pipeline projects, domestic and foreign technology in recent years will generally procure enough technical parameters, relatively low-cost straight seam steel tubes and fittings. Therefore, in the face of the next China Environmental Protection month, our company also makes stock storage in advance. According to the requirements of the company, the straight pipe stock has been strictly checked.
Commonly used detection methods for Welded steel pipe are:
There are many kinds of Welded steel pipe quality inspection methods, among which physical method is also the most commonly used inspection method. Physical inspection is the use of some physical phenomena for testing or testing methods. Generally, NDT is used. The current NDT includes magnetic flaw detection, ultrasonic flaw detection, radiographic inspection, penetrant flaw detection and so on. The following straight seam steel pipe factory introduces you in detail:
Magnetic force test
Magnetic flaw detection can only find defects on and near the surface of magnetic Welded steel pipe, and can only do quantitative analysis of the defects, the nature and depth of the defects can only be estimated according to experience. Magnetic testing is the use of magnetic field magnetized ferromagnetic straight seam pipe produced by magnetic flux leakage to detect defects. According to the different methods of magnetic flux leakage measurement, it can be divided into magnetic powder method, magnetic induction method and magnetic recording method, among which magnetic powder method is the most widely used.
In the propagation of ultrasonic wave in Welded steel pipe and other homogeneous media, reflection occurs at the interface of different media, so ultrasonic wave can be used to detect internal defects. Ultrasound can inspect any welding material, any part of the defect, and can be more sensitive to find the location of the defect, but the nature of the defect, shape and size is difficult to determine. Therefore, ultrasonic inspection of straight steel pipes is often used in conjunction with radiographic examination.
Ray flaw detection
X-ray flaw detection is a kind of flaw detection method which uses the characteristics of ray penetrating material and attenuation in material to find defects. According to the different rays used in flaw detection, it can be divided into three kinds: X-ray flaw detection, gamma-ray flaw detection and high-energy ray flaw detection. Because of the different display methods, each kind of X-ray flaw detection is divided into ionization method, fluorescent screen observation method, photography method and industrial television method. X-ray inspection is mainly used to inspect the cracks, incomplete penetration, porosity, slag inclusion and other defects in Welded steel pipe weld.
Penetration testing is to detect and display Welded steel pipe defects by using the permeability of certain liquids and other physical properties, including coloring test and fluorescence detection, which can be used to check the surface defects of ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic materials.
