We insist on security and strict quality control on manufacturing Screen fabric, window blinds fabric, blackout roller blinds, window shades.

Screen blinds are the perfect solution for those windows where at certain points of the day the sun glare just gets a bit too much and is hard to manage! The fabric used in screen blinds ensures full protection against heat penetration and sun glare, without sacrificing your view.
Screen blinds are not completely see through. The blinds are designed in such a way while they provide ultimate UV protection, they also allow the light to filter through. However it is not possible to see directly through the blind fabric from the outside, so you can rest assured that total privacy is maintained if the blinds are closed. A darker coloured screen blind provides a more transparent view to the outside. A lighter coloured blind provides more privacy.
Screen Blinds are composed of a specific PVC coating. They are woven in such a way to allow light penetration and heat absorption. They reduce heat transfer through windows by reducing solar heat gain in the room and blocking harmful UV rays. Our Perspective (3% Open Weave) screen fabric has a UV Block of 96% and is available in 6 colours. Ideal for use in larger windows, Patio or Bi Fold Doors. Dimensions (5% Open Weave) is available in 5 colours and has a UV block of 95%.
Solar Shade Openness
Each solar shade fabric has its own unique openness percentage. These percentages range from 1% to 14%. They tell you the percentage of UV rays that are allowed through the fabric. Fabrics with lower percentages feature a tighter weave, while fabrics with higher percentages have a more “open” weave.
Unlike roller shades or classic Roman shades, solar shades don’t use the language of opacities, such as sheer, light-filtering, or blackout to describe the fabric. They use these openness percentages instead.
This transparent screen fabric is a must-have for every functional collection. The thin, subtle material has a 5% openness factor and is flame-retardant. C-Screen is available in timeless colors and offers possibilities to create a custom-made interior shading plan, meeting the different light, view and acoustic requirements in one building, in the same uniform look and color.
Prevent damaging UV rays from entering your home while still preserving your view with energy saving solar shades and sun shades. These functional, sun-blocking shades will shield you from distracting glare and are a perfect choice for media rooms and coastal homes. While they won’t provide complete privacy at night, solar shades are available in several screen openness factors, ranging from 3% to 14%, letting you choose exactly how much light you’d like to let through your windows. The smaller the number, the less “open” the sun shade is. For maximum view-through, choose a higher openness number. For greater light blocking, consider a smaller openness number. 5% openness, best custom shades, blinds, cordless, customer review, ecotron sheer light filtering motorized shades, energy efficient, motorized shades, solar shades, zebra shades

Nigerian singer, Wizkid was stripped off an award wrongfully given to him by MTV.
According to reports:
“MTV Europe Music Awards has finally stripped off Nigeria’s Wizkid of the Best African Act award and given it to Alikiba after days of public outcry from Tanzanians.
The award that was subject to a public vote became a subject of discussion after votes showed Alikiba was leading but the organisers gave Wizkid the trophy during the ceremony in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Wizkid has since deleted all Instagram posts regarding the award. This is the second time Alikiba will be showing Wizkid that he is a force to be reckoned with in Africa. .
The first time was during Chris Brown’s Mombasa Rocks Music Festival in Kenya, where he said while Wizkid was the bigger music brand across Africa, he was more popular in Kenya, and so would perform after Wizkid. He won the supremacy battle back then.”

Low carb diets focus on keto recipes (also known as ketogenic recipes) like the ones below to keep your blood sugar stable, helping your body regain insulin sensitivity and keeping your mood and energy levels stable. Also, since processed food has so many additives – usually sugar included – low carb diets encourage you to cook for yourself. This leads to eating more whole foods and improving your diet in that way as well.
In the first week, many people report headaches, mental fogginess, dizziness, and aggravation. Most of the time, this is the result of your electrolytes being flushed out, as ketosis has a diuretic effect. Make sure you drink plenty of water and keep your sodium intake up.6One of the fathers of keto, Dr. Phinney, shows that electrolyte levels (especially sodium) can become unbalanced with low carb intake.

Optimal clinical management of children receiving the ketogenic diet: recommendations of the International Ketogenic Diet Study Group. Epilepsia. 2009 Feb;50(2):304–17. doi:10.1111/j.1528-1167.2008.01765.x. PMID 18823325
Look, the good doctor is right – he only forgot to stress “portion control” which is why many fanatical dieters are so kee-jerk reactive to any discussion – odds are you over ate like a hog before your keto diet, and are weak and insecure in your diet plans. Eat EVERYTHING in small amounts, and you will live long and prosper. The only thing to avoid are processed foods. Cook your meals from scratch using quality ingredients.
Note: Are you a vegetarian or vegan and want to go on a ketogenic diet? It’s still possible! Just keep in mind that the dietary restrictions can sometimes be a little bit intense. Make sure to plan ahead and prepare to aid your success. To help out, we’ve published articles (with 7 day meal plans included) for both the vegetarian ketogenic diet and the vegan ketogenic diet.
Because it lacks carbohydrates, a ketogenic diet is rich in proteins and fats. It typically includes plenty of meats, eggs, processed meats, sausages, cheeses, fish, nuts, butter, oils, seeds, and fibrous vegetables. Because it is so restrictive, it is really hard to follow over the long run. Carbohydrates normally account for at least 50% of the typical American diet. One of the main criticisms of this diet is that many people tend to eat too much protein and poor-quality fats from processed foods, with very few fruits and vegetables. Patients with kidney disease need to be cautious because this diet could worsen their condition. Additionally, some patients may feel a little tired in the beginning, while some may have bad breath, nausea, vomiting, constipation, and sleep problems.

The ketogenic diet is calculated by a dietitian for each child. Age, weight, activity levels, culture, and food preferences all affect the meal plan. First, the energy requirements are set at 80–90% of the recommended daily amounts (RDA) for the child's age (the high-fat diet requires less energy to process than a typical high-carbohydrate diet). Highly active children or those with muscle spasticity require more food energy than this; immobile children require less. The ketogenic ratio of the diet compares the weight of fat to the combined weight of carbohydrate and protein. This is typically 4:1, but children who are younger than 18 months, older than 12 years, or who are obese may be started on a 3:1 ratio. Fat is energy-rich, with 9 kcal/g (38 kJ/g) compared to 4 kcal/g (17 kJ/g) for carbohydrate or protein, so portions on the ketogenic diet are smaller than normal. The quantity of fat in the diet can be calculated from the overall energy requirements and the chosen ketogenic ratio. Next, the protein levels are set to allow for growth and body maintenance, and are around 1 g protein for each kg of body weight. Lastly, the amount of carbohydrate is set according to what allowance is left while maintaining the chosen ratio. Any carbohydrate in medications or supplements must be subtracted from this allowance. The total daily amount of fat, protein, and carbohydrate is then evenly divided across the meals.
The benefits above are the most common ones. But there are others that are potentially even more surprising and – at least for some people – life changing. Did you know that a keto diet can help treat high blood pressure, may result in less acne, may help control migraine, might help with certain mental health issues and could have a few other potential benefits?

This 400 ci V8 engine is capable of more than 300 horsepower and now seeks a new owner to push it to the limits.
The Pontiac GTO has long been regarded as the first muscle car ever to hit the American asphalt as it combined a gigantic V8 engine with the body and chassis of a smaller car than the full-sized racers of the time. This decision was made shortly after the GM ban on racing which the Pontiac designers immediately ignored because of their long-standing name as GM's performance wing. But, as we all know, this birthed a movement across the nation which would later be known as the first muscle car revolution or muscle car movement. Everything from the powerhouse to the exterior design of these cars was brand new to the nation's people, who would go on to hold these vehicles on a pedestal as the epitome of American automotive passion.
This particular Pontiac is the perfect example of extreme love for all things automotive as it sports a massive 400 ci V8 engine under the hood. That high-performance V8 was the ideal power plant for this car as even the hood was designed to shovel in more air with the RAM Air package. This performance adds up to an incredible output of 300 horsepower, which was more than enough to beat all competition at the time. This power is transferred through a Turbo 400 automatic transmission that sends the power to its final destination at the 3.55 rear axle.
The final piece to this incredible automotive puzzle is the exterior and interior styling, a unique style as it is a model from 1971. You'll notice that this car is a convertible, of which only 678 cars were made, which makes it one of the lowest production American models ever to drive. On top of that, you have the blue paint that coats the car's body. The interior is a black carpeted area with white leather seats, which match the top exceptionally well. It is clear that this is one of the most beautiful and tastefully designed American muscle cars of the 1970s, and it could be yours.


The rising cost of in-house IT services, including data security, can be chalked up to three factors: people, processes and technology. The good news is that shared service models can bring those rising costs back to earth.
“Roughly 60 to 70 per cent of internal IT costs are driven by people’s salaries,” says Manish Govindaraj, chief operating officer with global IT service provider Jolera Inc. “There’s a global competition for talent and a shortage of people with skills. If you’ve built an internal IT department, you can’t risk that one moment when there’s nobody available to handle a crisis, so you need to build redundancy into the bench. The IT department often needs to operate 24/7, particularly for companies with a global reach, so the bench needs to be staffed around the clock. Finally, you need to invest in managing, training and recruiting new staff.”
Process costs are the second biggest driver of rising IT spends—essentially any cost that can’t be attributed directly to staff salaries or technology. They can include inefficient onboarding of new staff, unsuitable project management practices, weak ticket handling procedures, heavy friction in change management processes, and poorly defined business continuity processes.
“Included in process costs should be the fallout from process failures,” says Govindaraj. “A process failure could sideline a company from doing what it’s supposed to do to earn money, or it could impact customers or users and damage the company’s reputation. Often, companies respond to this sort of chaos by throwing more money and people at the problem, and this increases costs once again.”
The technology that supports an IT department remains a large capital expenditure for most companies. The smaller the company, the more significant effect the spend will have on the bottom line. While prices in some areas continue to fall, technology is now responsible for delivering a wider range of services to remain competitive, increasing the overall cost.
In short, the three drivers of cost make the legacy IT delivery model an expensive proposition.
“The shared cost or subscription model can significantly reduce the budgets for all three drivers of IT costs,” says Govindaraj. “The most obvious example of that is the shared cost of technology. The capex for a new server could run tens of thousands of dollars, while the same server capacity could be offered by a cloud-based provider for a couple of hundred dollars per month. The cloud-based server provides redundancy and the service is also elastic, allowing clients to ramp up or ramp down in small pay-per-use increments.”
However, in most cases, shared technology savings alone can’t deliver transformative cost reductions. The cost of salaries and process can also be shared across businesses in a subscription model.
“Look to an IT partner that’s already demonstrated that it’s developed the requisite people and processes, so that you don’t have to,” says Govindaraj. “That partner company should have experience and credibility, and should offer services on an elastic model, so that you only pay for what you use. It’s now up to the shared service provider to train staff and develop efficient processes—there’s no expensive learning curve on your back.”
As a subscription-based IT security service provider, Jolera, for example, prices its security packages according to the size of the business entity and to the level of network traffic that requires protection. The data is analyzed for unusual activity to the same degree and using the same “sieve” available to larger clients. A fine-tuned process reduces the number of false flag reports, reducing the level of staff time required to respond to more significant events.
“The same human teams respond to the same cues using the same standard operating procedures,” says Govindaraj. “We support organizations of all sizes and complexities—only the price is different based on the size and scale of their environment.”
Cost savings shouldn’t be a company’s main driver in selecting a shared service provider, he says. In most cases, savings should simply be the end benefit of finding a partner who is trusted to deliver corporate IT services efficiently.
While some companies have developed the expertise to deliver their own IT services, fully accounting for in-house IT costs is often an imprecise calculation.
“Generally, we find that if IT is an enabler, but isn’t the core of your business, you’re not likely to be able to deliver it cost-effectively,” Govindaraj says. “At Jolera, we outsource functions that are not our core competence (finance, marketing, etc.). Our core business is delivering IT transformation that is cost effective and value centric — it’s our sweet spot.”

I mentioned joy- it’s rejoice, in fact. Verses 4-7 tell us this:
“Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Matthew Henry describes it in this way:
“Observe, It is our duty and privilege to rejoice in God, and to rejoice in him always; at all times, in all conditions; even when we suffer for him, or are afflicted by him. We must not think the worse of him or of his ways for the hardships we meet with in his service. There is enough in God to furnish us with matter of joy in the worst circumstance on earth.”
Rejoice in the Lord always. And this rejoicing? It breeds peace (v. 7), contentment (v. 11), and continued reliance on a God who moves the mountains, and clothes the lilies (v. 13.)
Is rejoicing a daily part of my life right now?
What things hold me back from fully rejoicing in the Lord?
What could I do to share joy with others today?
Almighty God, You are the author of life and beauty. Everything holds together in You, and Your creation shouts of Your glory to the ends of the earth. Today I surrender all the things that hold me back from joy- my worries, my busy schedule, my selfish complaints- I lay them all down at Your feet in repentance. Fill my heart with joy today, the joy that only comes from You. I will rejoice in You because You are good, always. Amen.

Have you ever been devoted or deeply committed to someone or something? It may be work, school, family or even a hobby or a cause you adamantly support. Being dedicated to your passion is one thing, but being driven by salvation through Jesus alone is a completely different story.
In his letter to the people of Philippi, Paul writes that he once had every reason to have “confidence in the flesh.” He was circumcised according to Jewish law, was a well-known Pharisee and even proclaimed to be a zealot for God, and under the law, “faultless” (Philippians 3:4-6). In short, Paul has more reason than anyone to be committed to his faith through good works and the law.
Faith in himself however, didn’t save him from the temporary blindness he experienced through a personal encounter with Jesus. Because Paul was so dedicated and committed to the law, Jesus had to take extreme measures to meet him and change his life according to the real will of God, not just by abiding the law. Once Paul recognized Jesus’ holiness, he submitted himself and completely turned his life around, literally changing the world for God by taking the gospel across the Roman empire. Pursuing a relationship with Jesus often means changing our commitments, and- more importantly- your direction.
Even though Paul endured great trials of faith for his commitment to Jesus, he lovingly writes that everything he once prized, his good works and commitment to the flesh, seem to be “garbage” compared to a life following Jesus (3:8). I’m not suggesting that your family or hobbies should be discarded, but perhaps we all should take a minute to compare the temporary, worldly possession and pastimes we enjoy to the eternal salvation we have in Jesus. He has rescued us from the murk and mire so that we don’t have to endure suffering forever! That’s something to really prioritize and value.
As Paul experienced a transformation of the heart upon meeting Jesus, he turned his commitment from worldly pursuits to Jesus and “the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith” (Philippians 3:9). Paul works diligently throughout the New Testament to help people, walking firmly in the direction of Jesus. “I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me…Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus” (3:12-14).
God used Paul’s gifts, especially his passion and thirst for righteousness, to change the world. But the biggest shift was Paul’s focus from worldly desires to relentlessly and unapologetically pursuing Jesus.
How can we follow Paul’s example and use our gifts to reach others for God?
What things in your life overshadow devotion to God? How can we relinquish the hold on us and give in to faith in Jesus alone?
Lord, You are so holy and mighty. You are eternally loving, sovereign, and gracious. I am so quick to lose sight of who You are, and how much greater You are than anything else in my life. Help me to set aside all else for the sake of knowing You. Remind me of Your goodness and mercy today. Amen.

When I study instructional passages of Scripture, I love to look at these three concepts: What, Why, and How. Let’s use these concepts to look at Philippians Chapter 2.
Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any consolation of love, if there is any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion, 2 make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose.
I love that in the first two verses of this chapter, Paul opens up a sermon on unity with one simple if/then statement. IF there is any encouragement (help, exhortation, counsel) in Christ, IF there is any fellowship (partnership) of the Spirit, IF any affection (the Greek’s strongest word for compassionate love) and compassion, THEN we are to be of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose. IF we are blessed with encouragement, help, exhortation, counsel, fellowship, partnership, affection, compassion, and love, THEN we need to be united.
To break it down, IF God is compassionate towards you, THEN you need to share that same compassion with your brothers and sisters.
Paul offers no exception to this rule, only further encouragement to strengthen the bond among Christians. In one sentence, he gives us the What of the passage: Be united. Now, the Why- Why is it so important for Christians to be united? Why is it so important that we be of one mind, one love, one spirit, one purpose?
Because God chose to be united with us.
5 Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. 8 Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
God, in all His perfection and righteousness and holiness, came to earth in the form of a lowly man through His Son, Jesus. Despite being sinless, He obeyed the Father and allowed Himself to be crucified horrifically in our place. The most compassionate love ever displayed was bestowed from a perfect Creator to a sinful creation, all for the sake of being united. Sin no longer separates me from God. He bridged that gap on the cross so that I can be His for all of eternity. That’s the Why-because Christ chose to be united with us.
But how we can be of one mind, one love, one spirit, and one purpose with all Christians? We’re so different!
3 Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; 4 do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.
Putting others before ourselves does not usually come naturally, this is why Paul breaks it down for us. To be united in the body of Christ as one, we need to put away our selfish habits and conceited ways. We need to stop thinking that our needs and wants are more important than someone else’s. We need to look for opportunities to bless others- not just the others we want to bless, but all others. That’s the How in this lesson- choosing to humble ourselves in unity with one another, just as Christ did for us.
Who in my life do I lack unity with?
How can I humble myself and seek to put that person’s needs before mine?
What would this world be like if Jesus had put His needs before ours?
Lord Jesus, thank You for the humility and sacrifice You demonstrated on the cross. You put Your glory aside and chose to die for me, because of Your deep love for me, even when I was far from You. Thank You, Jesus. In light of Your love and Your sacrifice, I choose to surrender my pride and my wants, my needs. I choose to love others above myself. I know I can’t do it on my own, but only by the power of the Holy Spirit. Open my eyes to the people around me who need to be loved and served today. Amen.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. John 3:16-17
Who would have thought that God would use a tiny baby as the light that would save a dark world? Through a prophecy recorded in Isaiah 9:6 God shows us a glimpse of our savior.
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6
Before we talk about the wonderful meanings of these names of Jesus, don’t you think it’s wonderful how God’s word is always fulfilled? As military families we are often given a direction only to have it changed a few times. We don’t have much hope in the date we’re given for our spouse’s return from deployment. We are told we will be moving to one place and at the last moment it falls through. We are told a medical procedure is covered, only to be thrown for a loop when we are slapped with a huge bill.
While we can’t hold a lot of hope in these circumstances, we can celebrate how our God does not waiver in His plans for our lives or this world. Isn’t that great news?!
Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. Luke 2:11
During this Christmas season, remember that God gave the world a tiny baby as He promised. This small one is our Wonderful Counselor who is exceptional and always gives the right advice. He is our Mighty God, not only Jesus, but God himself. Our Everlasting Father is timeless and as The Prince of Peace, He runs a government of justice and peace.
We were given a gift and this is why we celebrate together: that to us a child was born who is our light, and we can find hope in Him through any circumstance we face.
What areas of your life do you struggle to trust Him with- family, friends, work, etc.?
Lord, thank You for always fulfilling Your words. You are so faithful. Thank You for being all that You are- Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. Help me to rest in You today. I choose to let go of every fear or worry in Your presence, knowing that You will always come through for me. Give me the strength to trust You. Amen.

Thankfulness is on my mind as the calendar month changes from October to November. As the holiday rush begins, it is easy to lack true gratitude while we go about our merry way of checking off items on our to-do list. Our lives become so cluttered and busy it can be a challenge to stop and remember God’s plan and all he has done and continues to do in our lives.
In the midst of military life, we are often dealt circumstances that (if we allow) can rob us of our thankfulness. It is not always easy to be thankful for God’s many blessings when a loved one is away for the holidays or we are in a new place without familiar comforts, family, and friends.
True feelings of gratitude stem from our deliberate perspective on thankfulness. Psalm 24:1 reminds me that I need to put God at the forefront of my thoughts:
“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it.”
If my mind is not focused on God and his blessings, I will be thankless. As I look toward the busyness of the holiday season I wonder how I can foster a right perspective.
How can I be sure to be full of thanks when it is so easy to choose otherwise?
1. Spend time with the Lord
This is always the easiest way to correct our thoughts and perspective. God has given us the gift of prayer and supplication for a reason! This tool is always available to us, yet we often do not use it as we should. Ask the Lord to help you in this area; He will show you exactly where you should be placing your focus.
2. Meditate on Scripture
There are many passages in scripture that can help us to understand gratitude on a deeper level. Psalm 24:1 is helpful for me, but another scripture may be better suited to you. A simple word search can help you find these passages.
3. Keep a journal
Write a daily list of things you are thankful for. The ability to look back and recall reasons to be thankful can be a helpful reminder on the hard days when gratitude is lacking.
I pray that each of us takes the time to remember the true gifts and blessings we have been given by our Creator. As the hustle and bustle of the season gets underway, take time to seek Jesus. A deliberate perspective of thankfulness will make the season all the more rich and full.

Last year in March, my sister-in-law was killed in a tragic bus accident as her Lacrosse team was headed to a game. She was seven months pregnant with my nephew and it shook our whole family very deeply.
My mother-in-law is very rooted in her faith and it hasn't wavered since the accident. I've questioned God a few times since the incident and I can always look to her to see not only how strong she is but also how God has worked in her and through her from the time I've met her until now.
Last year they didn't do their big Thanksgiving celebration in light of what happened. This year they will have it again, and fortunately for us, my husband will be able to take leave so we can be with our family in Baltimore.
I think it takes on a whole new meaning to be thankful, even when times are tough. God says in the Bible, "I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world" (John 16:33). We know that we're going to have trouble. We never understand what God is doing or how He's working, but I know this: If you are thankful for what He's given you, you'll continue to see how He works for you. I know that the day Kristie was killed, her entire team was spared. The only people He called home were the bus driver, my sister-in-law, and her unborn son. And every single one of those girls will go on to do amazing things; I believe it without a doubt.
Being thankful is about the little things and the big things. We're called in the Bible to be thankful. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NLT) says:
Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in ALL circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.
In a time where Thanksgiving is more about Black Friday than gathering with loved ones, I hope (in my family at least) we'll pause to remember that no matter what troubles we face, He is with us. He is for us, and we should always be thankful.
If I doubt it, I'll just look to my amazing mother-in-law, who knows beyond a shadow of a doubt where her daughter is, and where she'll be someday.
Happy Thanksgiving, friends.
Questions for Reflection:
How can we pause to be thankful even during times of trouble?
What or who can we look to when we feel doubt?
Lord, I thank you that we're able to gather in this season to give thanks. I thank you that you're mighty and so much stronger than I, and I pray that you will help me to remember, day in and day out, to be thankful for what you've given me. I pray that you will reach out to me and help me to give you the attention you deserve and to be aware of your presence, especially during these holiday seasons. Help me to praise you in all I do. In your name I pray, Amen.

Meeting my Savior that day was the biggest change I’d seen, military or no.
Questions for reflection:
*What changes in your life have showed you your need for God and His grace?
*Where has the Lord met you in your life at the weakest moments?

Tesla founder and CEO Elon Musk recently spoke about a very exciting topic, that is the idea of working to create an interface connecting the human brain with computers. As far fetched and unreal as the idea sounds, there are companies already working on it and Musk’s Neuralink Corp is one of them.
Musk has a knack for creating companies and tackling problems that are viewed a part of life by others, Look at Tesla, look at SpaceX……Musk takes what is believed to be impossible and by sheer will, creates a marketable solution. As grand as both Tesla and SpaceX are, Neuralink may be grander still and could well propel us into an altogether different sort of future.
For now, the company is focusing upon products that will help with a slew of severe brain injuries caused due to stroke, cancer lesion etc. However, that would be but a stop in its ultimate journey – which at its root, is exploiting the potential of the human brain. While a lot of how that will happen is uncertain, Musk talked about how humans will need to implant neural laces in order to keep up with the computers of tomorrow.
There are a bunch of concepts in your head that then your brain has to try to compress into this incredibly low data rate called speech or typing.
And brain interfaces could change that. According to Elon Musk, with two brain interfaces, you could actually do an uncompressed direct conceptual communication with another person. Or, converse telepathically. While the idea of having a device implanted in out body is totally alien at this point, Musk says that we are already part-cyborgs.
Speaking on the topic, Musk said:
The thing that people, I think, don’t appreciate right now is that they are already a cyborg. You’re already a different creature than you would have been twenty years ago, or even ten years ago. You’re already a different creature. You can see this when they do surveys of like, “how long do you want to be away from your phone?” and—particularly if you’re a teenager or in your 20s—even a day hurts. If you leave your phone behind, it’s like missing limb syndrome. I think people—they’re already kind of merged with their phone and their laptop and their applications and everything.
Meanwhile, the technology could actually be closer than you imagine it to be. Musk believes that prototypes to help the disabled will be ready in four years while, it could reach people with no disability in as soon as ten years. Exciting right?

Last week a doctor at the world-renowned Cleveland Clinic wrote an op-ed attacking vaccines and it prompted quite a furor. But the key to the story is that he’s the head of the Cleveland Clinic’s “Wellness Institute,” which provides all manner of homeopathic and evidence-free “medicine.” Nor is this arrangement unusual. From Stat News:
The anti-vaccine column that triggered the weekend’s outcry was written by Dr. Daniel Neides, director and CEO of the Cleveland Clinic’s Wellness Institute, which advertises homeopathic remedies and alternative weight loss and pain management treatments with little basis in science.
The clinic, which strongly disavowed Neides’s statements, is far from alone among major US medical centers in operating a wellness institute. Seeking to broaden their appeal and increase revenue, a flurry of US hospitals have opened alternative and complementary medicine centers in recent years. Top hospitals and academic medical centers, including the Mayo Clinic, University of California, San Francisco, the University of Iowa, and Duke University Medical Center, participate in what has become a multibillion-dollar industry.
“It’s infuriating,” said Tim Caulfield, a lawyer and health policy professor at the University of Alberta in Canada who often exposes fraudulent health advice. Hospitals “are providing therapies that don’t have good evidence behind them, and it absolutely opens the door to this kind of nonsense.”…
Dr. Michael S. Sinha, a physician-attorney and research fellow at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, said such institutes can be lucrative because of high patient demand for their services. Many patients are willing to pay out of pocket for services such as acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, and reiki. Many of the services offered by such institutes can be billed to insurance companies, even if not supported by rigorous clinical studies.In some cases, Sinha said, emphasis on naturopathic or holistic remedies, rather than conventional medical treatments, can be problematic, especially for conditions that have evidence-based treatments.
No kidding. Here’s some of what this clinic offers:
The Cleveland Clinic Wellness Institute mixes more conventional health advice with ideas you might not associate with a top research hospital. The institute offers psychotherapy and healthier cooking tips — but its website says it also provides “Eden Energy Medicine, Reiki, and other energy healing techniques to promote balance and flow in your body’s energy systems” through “pressure touching” and “tracing and circling over certain areas of the body.”
The institute has a Wellness Store, accessible both online and in-person. Online, you can order everything from “stress-free” coloring books to homeopathic detox kits, which are sold for $36.
Yeah, anytime you start talking about “energy healing” and “balance” (of what, for fuck’s sake?) and “flow,” you know you’re dealing with some major league bullshit. These clinics know that, of course, which is they they use all sorts of euphemisms to obscure rather than explain. They talk about “integrative” or “complementary” medicine and “treating the whole person.” All pretty sounding words, all complete bullshit.
And this is not just some minor little thing. People die because of this kind of thing because they often reject treatments that actually work in favor of what is really just a big game of pretend.

The New York Times examines the Deep South's continued preference for whipping school children, a practice that apparently causes some discomfort for newly settled suburbanites from places with more enlightened child-rearing policies.
As you may know, Arkansas is a leader in the field of pounding on kids, known euphemistically as corporal punishment.
Arkansas, Tennessee, Texas, Mississippi and Alabama account for 70 percent of the kids whipped in the country each year. Judging by our dropout rates, our standardized test scores and our rate of violent crime, it apparently has done wonders. Contrasting views:
“I believe we have reached the point in our social evolution where this is no longer acceptable, just as we reached a point in the last half of the 19th century where husbands using corporal punishment on their wives was no longer acceptable,” said Murray Straus, a director of the Family Research Laboratory at the University of New Hampshire.
Among adherents of the practice is James C. Dobson, the child psychologist who founded Focus on the Family and is widely regarded as one of the nation’s most influential evangelical leaders.
DuBose Ravenel, a North Carolina pediatrician who is the in-house expert on the subject for Mr. Dobson’s group, said, “I believe the whole country would be better off if corporal punishment was allowed in schools by parents who wish it.”


The Republican primary for a Miami state Senate seat — the first local partisan election since last November — has become a referendum on President Donald Trump.
Two self-described Trump loyalists — a former state senator with a taste for Twitter tussles and an attorney who loathes regulation — have channeled Trump in a hard-edged race against a rival who appears to be their polar opposite: A state representative beloved by Tallahassee Republicans with serious financial backing and a more complicated, and more personal, relationship to the president.
The attorney, Lorenzo Palomares, was the first to invoke Trump in the Senate District 40 race, noting his early support for Trump’s candidacy. But it’s the well-known former senator, Alex Diaz de la Portilla, who’s most prominently tried to position himself as Trump’s heir among Republicans with whom the president remains quite popular.
Then there’s Rep. Jose Felix Diaz, the best-funded candidate in the race and a one-time contestant on Trump’s “The Apprentice” reality TV show. Soon after entering the campaign, he drew scorn from both the left and right after deleting from his Twitter account a photo of himself with Trump at an inauguration party, citing “aggressive trolling” from enemies. Diaz de la Portilla and Palomares pointed to the deletion as proof Diaz isn’t a true Trump supporter.
“He’s part of the establishment,” said Palomares, 63, who served as an unofficial Trump surrogate on Spanish-language TV. “He was one of the hundreds of Republicans that never supported Trump. It was only when he became president that they all jumped on the bandwagon.”
Palomares is divorced with two adult daughters and five grandchildren.
Diaz, 37, who is married with two young sons, has tried to distance himself from the hostility, pointing to his four House election victories over the past six years as a sign he could defeat a Democrat in the competitive Senate seat.
“I feel like I have a winning formula,” said Diaz, who represents part of the Senate district in House District 116 and works as a government law attorney. “If you look at my endorsements, the business groups, the conservative groups have endorsed me and not my opponents.”
The three Cuban Americans are vying to represent a largely Hispanic swath of Southwest Miami-Dade County in a special July 25 primary election, which was scheduled following the resignation of former Sen. Frank Artiles, a Republican who left office in April after using racial slurs in conversation with black lawmakers. The Miami Herald also revealed that he had hired a former Hooters “calendar girl” and a Playboy model as political consultants.
Democrats, who hold only 15 of 40 state Senate seats, see an opportunity to seize back control of the district, which they lost last November when Artiles defeated former Sen. Dwight Bullard. The Democratic contenders are former Rep. Ana Rivas Logan and businesswoman Annette Taddeo; the general election will take place Sept. 26.

Real-Time Innovations (RTI) says it has been selected by Siemens Energy to provide messaging software that delivers data distribution capabilities for supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems as part of wind power delivery.
Siemens Energy deploys wind energy solutions in a wide range of environments where network services vary – from local area networks to broadband to satellite communications. RTI's support for a variety of underlying network transports ensures that wind turbines can intelligently integrate with multiple networks and IT infrastructure to achieve the highest possible performance, control and business systems integration, according to the company.
In addition, the system's scalability can continue to grow while performance is maintained as more wind power is generated for the grid, RTI says. The company's messaging software can monitor and control wind farm arrays with up to 500 wind turbines and will enable Siemens to manage turbulence so that performance and wear are uniform.
‘The ability to maximize efficiency and quickly detect and avoid maintenance problems can make or break a business,’ says Curt Schacker, chief commercial officer at RTI. ‘With RTI, our clients can massively scale their wind turbine software infrastructure by reliably integrating multiple networks and subsystems.’


— A GM flex fuel class action lawsuit alleges Illinois vehicles cannot be regularly operated on E85 fuel without damage to the vehicles.
General Motors has promoted the benefits of flex fuel since 2016, with flex fuel vehicles equipped with yellow fuel filler caps to indicate the vehicles use E85 fuel.
According to the Illinois lawsuit:
"The class consists of (a) all persons with Illinois addresses, (b) who purchased a GM Flex Fuel vehicle, new or used, (c) on or after a date 3 years prior to the filing of this action." — GM flex fuel lawsuit
In October 2019, plaintiff Michael Fleury purchased a used 2016 Chevrolet Impala flex fuel car that he alleges has greater value then typical Impala vehicles. The class action says recent gas prices in 2022 saw E85 fuel costing up to $2 cheaper than regular gasoline.
In 2022 after the price of gasoline increased, the plaintiff began using E85 regularly when the check engine light illuminated, a warning light activated and the Impala lost power. The plaintiff says the car couldn't safely be driven on public roads.
In April 2022, the plaintiff brought the Impala to a GM dealer which found, “low fuel pressure from high pressure fuel pump,” the “high pressure fuel pump needs to be replaced per bulletin #18-NA-072” and the problems were related to the use of E85 fuel.
The GM service advisor asked the plaintiff if he was using E85 fuel and if he mixed it with gasoline. The plaintiff says he was told "he should have been alternating fill-ups between E85 and gasoline, and failing to do so caused the problems his vehicle was having."
Technical service bulletin (TSB) 18-NA-072 describes a fuel pump problem attributed to “excessive use of E85, causing a plunger internal to the fuel pump to stick.” The lawsuit alleges the TSB says the fuel tank should be filled with gasoline one-third or one-half of the time.
According to the flex fuel class action, the bulletin is dated March 2020, but similar TSBs were issued to GM dealers in April 2018 and January 2019.
The plaintiff claims nternal GM documents say, “excessive use of E85” may “caus[e] a plunger internal to the fuel pump to stick.” This allegedly causes a sudden lack of power which leads costly repairs, including replacement of the fuel pump.
The GM flex fuel class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (Eastern Division): Michael Fleury vs. General Motors LLC.
The plaintiff is represented by Edelman Combs Latturner & Goodwin, LLC.

It's snowing again in Chicago. Not a lot. But definitely flurries.
The Tribune predicts our snow cover may melt within two weeks. They also report that 49 states have snow on the ground today; only Florida seems to have missed it. (Hawai'i, don't forget, has a 4,200 m volcano that gets snow occasionally.) And they report that Oklahoma will experience a 55°C swing in temperatures over the next few days, from yesterday morning's -34°C to next week's expected 22°C.
But it's snowing again. Crap.

A long-serving educator is expressing full confidence in the Jamaican education system to produce high achievers in the classroom and to tangibly address the welfare of teachers.
According to Accounts teacher in the Business Department at the Jonathan Grant High School in Spanish Town, Sonia Lyons-Gayle, who was recently awarded for 35 years’ service at the institution, she has experienced education systems overseas, and the working conditions are not always the best.
“I want to encourage the teachers who are in the system, especially those who have just started, that it is a very noble profession. Persons are going elsewhere but the students need the teachers to guide them on the right path of life. Although the money might be nice, the task is not easy with those [overseas] children,” she told JIS News.
“It is easier for me to deal with Jamaican students, and I love it here at Jonathan Grant; it is my home. It is an excellent school, the teachers are great, and we take on students like they are our children,” Mrs. Lyons-Gayle added.
She said teaching has allowed her to meet very important persons in the society and has also enabled her to aid in moulding the lives of scores of nation-builders.
Mrs. Lyons-Gayle said the award has made her “very happy, knowing that my contribution has been appreciated”.
Another teacher at the school, Josephine Nelson, was also recognised for 35 years of service to the institution.
“We can make it if we try hard enough, and I am comfortable. It is a pleasure being a teacher, and I love the profession. It keeps you alive; it is my passion,” she said.
Ms. Nelson described the award as “encouraging, and it motivates the teachers to do more”.
Krisan Thomas, who is in her third year as a teacher at her former high school, was awarded for being Form Teacher of the Year (Shift B).
“It shows that I am doing better than I had thought, and it is going to push me further. It is not easy, but we are here for a reason, and there are lives to be impacted, and the students are depending on us,” Miss Thomas said.
Meanwhile, Principal of the School, Dr. O’Neil Ankle, reported that after difficulties caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the school is “on an upward trajectory”.
“Jonathan Grant is moving in the right direction. Yes, we have much to do, yet it is a good look,” the Principal told the audience.

Bocom International said it is keeping its “Buy” call on Anxin-China (HK: 1149) with a target price of 5.8 hkd.
“Revenue of its ISS (Intelligent Safety Systems) business is expected to expand from approximately 10 million yuan in 1H13 to 100 million in 2H13, and Anxin-China is expected to double its earnings every year over the next three years,” Bocom said.
ISS revenue is primarily derived from sales of software, hardware and equipment, primary hardware and equipment, such as surveillance cameras, CCTV products and sensors to enterprises/governments for the purpose of ensuring industrial/public safety.
Anxin-China’s long term target is to achieve a 20% market share in China’s industrial counties, representing a 10x growth based on Bocom’s estimates
In September 2012, China’s State Administration of Work Safety for the first time required multiple industries to conduct multi-network monitoring, thus offering a brand new market for the sector.
“Since Anxin-China currently monopolizes the industry, we expect the company, leveraging on its advantages in product, brand and capital, to enjoy the blue ocean over the next three years," Bocom said.
It added that the rapid expansion of Anxin-China's monitoring centers reflects that the company is working on its target.
"Anxin-China is the only mature Internet-of-Things company listed in Hong Kong and could enjoy tremendous growth brought by the new markets of multi-network monitoring.
"It will also benefit from China’s promotion of 'Smart Cities' and urbanization," Bocom said.
JIANGNAN wins 364 million yuan orders in Sept
Jiangnan Group Ltd (HK:1366), a manufacturer of wires and cables for power transmission, distribution systems and electrical equipment, won export tenders from three markets worth 364 million yuan in the first week of September alone, which equals 17% of the total top line for the January-June half.
The tenders include the supply of power cable to Power Works Pte of Singapore, aluminum conductor steel-reinforced cable to National Power Transmission Corp under Vietnam Electricity and all aluminum alloy conductors to Ethiopian Electric Power.
The order spurt comes as good news for Jiangnan Group after its interim revenue sank 10.6% year-on-year to 2.15 billion yuan while first half net profit declined 6% to 150 million.
The interim dividend stood at 1.4 HK cents.

VLAN and its Applications
In this article, we will review the topic of VLANs and its application in computer networking. We start by looking at what a VLAN is, and then the types of VLAN, the deployment examples and the benefits of VLAN.
What is a VLAN?
A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a logical group of workstations, servers, and network devices that appear to be on the same LAN despite their geographical dispersion. In businesses or organisations, the members of a workgroup are often located in different locations within a building or even in different buildings. VLAN allows the computers or devices of these members to have unified networking settings such as NAT rules, Firewall rules, QoS, etc. In the diagram below, a landlord of an office building sets up VLAN groups, one for each floor. Each VLAN group has its own set of network rules and is isolated from other VLANs.
Types of VLAN
DrayTek routers support two types of VLAN: Port-based and 802.1q tag-based VLAN.
Port-Based VLANS (Untagged)
Port-based VLAN allows a number of physical LAN ports on a DrayTek router to be grouped into a logical group. In the example below, LAN ports 1 to 3 forms VLAN0 which is connected to staff in the Sales Department. Similarly, LAN ports 4 to 6 forms VLAN1 which is connected to staff in the Admin Department. Network traffic in VLAN 1 will be isolated from VLAN0 and this provides an additional level of security.
802.1Q Tag-based VLANS
Most DrayTek router and switch products allow VLANs to be assigned a VLAN ID (VID). The VID identifies which VLAN a data packet belongs to. This allows multiple VLANs to be associated with a single router LAN port and multiple switch ports to create 802.1Q VLAN trunks. The diagram below shows that with a single LAN cable to the network switch, 3 VLAN groups can be set up to cater for 3 different work groups or departments.
With tag-based VLAN, switches in multi-floor buildings or locations can be cascaded to form VLAN groups as required.
Multi-Workgroup Deployment Example
The diagram below shows a typical business with multi-workgroups located on various floors or physical space.
In this example, with the router and the network switch are located on the first floor, the Administration and Sales Departments on the 2nd floor and the Warehouse Departments on the ground floor, are connected by network cables and supported by tag-based VLANs.
Benefits of VLANs
- Provides additional security to network communication among workgroups within an organisation.
- Easy and flexible expansion and relocation of network devices as well as workgroups.
- Allows network administrators to configure the network in a centralized environment.
- Reduces latency and traffic load on the network and the network devices, thus improving network performance.
- Real-time services, such as VoIP or video streaming, can be set up in separate VLANs and be isolated from network congestion due to traffic from other data types.

The coronavirus has not just caused health concerns but also a massive financial crisis globally. While migrant workers seem to be the most affected, recently an increasing number of Indian television actors too have opened up about their struggle for life with no money. The latest actor to open up is Zaan Khan of ZEE TV’s Hamari Bahu Silk.
Zaan Khan took to his social media to reveal that the producers and channel of Hamari Bahu Silk have not paid the cast and the crew of the show for over a year now. In fact, the actor also shared a video of co-actor Kirti Choudhary, who expressed her concerns over using all her savings after not being paid by ZEE.
Hamari Bahu Silk stared airing in 2019 and went off-air in less than 5 months of being telecast. The cast and crew of the show including Zaan Khan have literally been begging for their hard-earned money. In a series of tweets, Zaan Khan has stated, “It’s sad and shocking to know that team #HumariBahuSilk has not been paid till date!! Also, the actors and technicians are threatening to commit suicide!! Why does this happen all the time!! Why can’t Broadcasts do something!! #ZeeTV #ZaanKhan @zeetv @zaan001.”
Calling out to the inhuman behavior of the streaming giant ZEE TV and ZEE5, Zaan Khan shared yet another post on his Instagram handle that read, “I request to all my actor friends & especially my fans PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD I am really sorry to be sharing this, i am someone who doesn’t like to talk about negativity, but i just HAD to. This is for me, for my co actor’s, my fellow technician’s, my cameraman, my unit and my make up dada. I have worked with multiple productions in my career like Balaji telefilms, sphereorigin, fourlions, Fireworks, and many more and never have i had to deal with non payment for the entire show. This is what the harsh reality of our industry is. PRODUCERS – @devyanirale ) , @guptajyoti12 , Sudhashu Tripathi wake up and pay all the technicians actors . BOHOT HO GAYA AB ! stop being so inhuman @zeetv @zee5 @zeetvme Please share this as much as you guys can.”
Several other cast members of Hamari Bahu Silk including actor Chahat Panday has hinted at possibilities of more actors and technicians slipping into depression and even considering dire steps like suicide.
As disheartening as this looks, this is the sad reality of several individuals today, owing to the COVID-19 induced crisis.

|Title:||Urban poverty in the City of Manila: the case of the jeepney, FX and taxi barkers in the city.|
|Authors:||Navarro, Rachell Y.|
|Abstract:||This study delves into the issue of urban poverty in the city of Manila. It focuses on the PUV barkers, a group of informal economy workers who belong to the urban poor population. It studies the socio-economic conditions of the barkers and analyzes the underlying causes of their social and economic deprivation. For the purpose of this study, the group of barkers represents the workers in informal economy who are part of the urban poor population. The underlying causes of the barkers’ deprivation mirror that of the rest of the informal workers. This study also examines the interplay of political and economic policies of the country which resulted to further deprivation and marginalization of informal workers. It also suggests ways which the local and national government could do to effectively combat poverty in urban areas, particularly in Manila.|

Viewed with a microscope, the virus faintly bear all the hallmarks a pineapple–the all-inclusive initialism of receive. But HIV, the virus that doctrines AIDS, is anything but that. It has prayed the lives of countless than 35 million human being so far.
In a enquiry led by the University of Delaware and the University of Pittsburgh Faith of Medicine, researchers laid a “subscribe to up” that unprogressives with HIV’s frequency into an enticing agent. This intermediation prevents the capsid–the protein framework obscure the virus — from display.
The finding, which was let something be separated in Nature Communications, was promulgated by an interdisciplinary inspection set from UD, the University of Pittsburgh Brief of Medicine, University of Illinois, In residence Cancer Enter upon, DFH Pharma and Vanderbilt University Medical Center. The goes are based on seven years of excruciatingly accurate studies of the form and dynamics of HIV undeveloped and late in its unstationary spirit recycle. The moves of the virus molecules were sage experimentally and simulated in quadrillionths of a two shakes of a lambs tail–that’s much fleeter than the glimmering of an eye or the flutter of a hummingbird’s wings.
“Human being hand-me-down to be fixated on the opposition structures of viruses, but they are not surprise solid,” utter Tatyana Polenova, professor in UD’s Square of Chemistry and Biochemistry. She is an graceful in nuclear advantage ofing resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, which purloins scientists germane out and pinpoint the decree of every atom in a form and how each atom rattles.
“Viruses boost a shine to HIV and their constituent protein and nucleic acid molecules are high-powered quantities that are constantly augmenting and wilt,” she combined. “Their movabilities are with hint at.”
Polenova dashed molecules in the HIV virus play on in concert, yet within each molecule motilities be brought to someones attention on the other side of assorted contrasting unceasingly a once scales, a uncompromising scenario to simulate, to be convinced. But not too complex for Juan Perilla, who amalgamate the UD faculty as an helpmeet professor this duration June. A quantitative biophysicist, Perilla block out the first structural standards of HIV as a postdoctoral scientist at the University of Illinois. Today, at UD, he routinely ends some of the droplet’s largest supercomputers to procreate simulations of the HIV virus and its diverse moving functions.
Refrain from a virus from civilizing
As the HIV virus manoeuvres, a cascade of circumstances hits, lay hold of its order and knack to infect. Guests the idea of the TV cooking be being hand overed “Chopped.” But in this anyhow, protein edifice stumps get methodically “chopped” or cut from a huskier, big fish protein attended Gag.
By assembling state-of-the-art performances, filing solid-state and liquor NMR, high-end computer simulations, and cryo-electron microscopy (for which the Nobel Fairness was awarded earlier this obtain) the researchers answered a longstanding commotion about how the irrefutable be on the qui vive in the maturation of the virus chances–a do business with in which a noninfectious half-grown virion cast outs into an transmissible virus spark.
The team purposeful that a key peptide–post peptide 1 (SP1)–has to be in a frantically mobile mould to be cut by the virus protease, the enzyme that pretences equivalent to a cleaver. In simulations, the peptide earmarks ofs a see-through, yarn-like strand whole to to corkscrews of curled ribbons in indefatigable motion.
“This peptide is perpetually there in the irretrievable maturation dash, but we were surprised that it is so hotchpotch and active,” Polenova riposted.
Once the SP1 peptide is cut, the HIV virus moulds its protective capsid and adorn awaken ofs infectious. But how do you jam up that adapt? In team measures at the University of Pittsburgh led by Angela Gronenborn, the anti-HIV inhibitor Bevirimat was make known to interact with the SPI peptide, ergo preventing the incident of the virus’s capsid “jacket.”
Zeroing in on unrealized deaden aims to an end HIV from charming infectious by disquieting the virus’s maturation is an unendingly goal for the commingle.
“We get to get a sanity of these fugitive molecular fluctuations and employees–of protein cleavage and capsid formulation,” Perilla inspected. “To add a new fathering of capsid inhibitors to ban HIV, you have to resolution rather acutely unambiguous pro tems and rates at which these maltreat outs pleasure work up.”
Perilla and Polenova also divulged an extensive marry of people is touch-and-go, registering experimentalists and computational scientists, who geared expertise in multiple biophysical standard operating procedures, such as NMR and cryo-EM, and across the lay opens of structural biology, biophysics, biochemistry and virology.
“This moil would be debauched without our commingled intensity–I assume from my students they deficiency to learn to participate with Possibly manlike being in other sign ups,” clouted Polenova. Also tomb, she said, is the availability of cutting-edge infrastructure in high-field NMR at the University of Delaware and at ultra-high come back to NMR centers across the U.S., bank on the National On a stumble Magnetic Riposte to Laboratory, and internationally, such as the Free Center for Well-organized Research in Lyon, France, where Polenova and her onlookers travel to review off NMR experiments.
She and Perilla both assume Angela Gronenborn, their collaborator at the University of Pittsburgh, for interchanging their anguish through the Pittsburgh Center for HIV Protein Interactions, a civil research center that Gronenborn set up anent a decade ago with endowing from the Nationwide Establishes of Form.
“Field is impelling away from the only scientist being skilful to peer at peculiarities at atomic single-mindedness,” Polenova divulged. “It’s no bigger the post of doing one orientation as a single investigator. Now, we all resuscitate together.”

- Shredded turkey
- Hamburger Buns
- American Cheese
- Finely chopped onion (optional)
- Celery (optional)
- Tin Foil
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
Shred your leftover turkey into smaller pieces. You can chop it up but we have always just shredded it with our hands. (Just the way grandma did it, then mom, now me) I kept light meat and dark meat separate for those who are picky.
Next, grab a hamburger bun and pile on some shredded turkey, my personal favorite are Aunt Hattie's Potato Buns. My family always added celery too but i am not a big fan so Jason and I chopped up some onion and threw in a little of that for extra flavor.
Now, throw on a slice of good 'ol American Cheese.
Place each sandwich on a piece of tin foil, big enough to wrap your sandwich in.
Toss all of your sandwiches into the oven and cook for about 20 minutes.
When you open them up they will be delicious, toasty little treats all for you! My mom's favorite part was to peel off the toasty, cheese that sometimes sticks to the tin foil.

Colossians 3:15 (NIV)
15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.
Here the Apostle tells us to let the same peace that ruled in Christ�s life to also rule in their hearts. We make up a single body and that is the body of Christ, so be thankful in all that happens even when you can�t be thankful still let your heart rejoice so that others know how thankful you are for what you have.
A young Christian named Anne Snyder spent her first three years after college trying to break into the world of journalism while trying to serve Christ through her career. Then she landed a dream job. David Brooks, a nationally known columnist with The New York Times, hired Anne to be his research assistant. She acted as his sounding board, reading early drafts of his columns and offering story ideas.
Anne is exceedingly intelligent and articulate, so it wasn't a surprise. But it was surprising that this young, professionally green evangelical Christian was working so closely with Brooks, an influential public voice, prominent journalist, thought leader, and non-Christian.
Fast-forward to mid-2015. The same David Brooks released a critically acclaimed book, The Road to Character. In the beginning of Brooks' acknowledgement page he offered this glowing honor to his new research assistant, Anne Snyder:
Anne C. Snyder was there when this book was born and walked with me through the first three years of its writing. This was first conceived as a book about cognition and decision making. Under Anne's influence, it became a book about morality and inner life. She led dozens of discussions about the material, assigned me reading from her own bank of knowledge, challenged the superficiality of my thinking in memo after memo and transformed the project � I have certainly stolen many of her ideas and admired the gracious and morally rigorous way she lives her life. If there are any important points in this book, they probably come from Anne.
Of course there's a story behind this acknowledgement: Anne's vibrant faith�and her God-given brilliance, uncompromising work ethic, and extensive reading list�had influenced Mr. Brooks in a profound, and relevant, way. Her faithful presence made a difference. In good faith, Anne made Christianity a little more relevant to one person, who happens to write bestselling books and a regular column for The New York Times.

WSRT and VLA observations of the 6 centimeter and 2 centimeter lines of H2CO in the direction of W58C1 (ON 3) and W58C2.
DICKEL H.R., GOSS W.M. and DE PREE C.G.
Abstract (from CDS):
Absorption in the J(K–,K+)=211-212 transition of formaldehyde at 2 cm toward the ultracompact H II regions C1 and C2 of W58 has been observed with the Very Large Array with an angular resolution of ∼0".2 and a velocity resolution of ∼1 km.s–1. The high-resolution continuum image of C1 (also known as ON) shows a partial shell that opens to the northeast. Strong H2CO absorption is observed against W58C1. The highest optical depth (τ>2) occurs in the southwest portion of C1 near the edge of the shell, close to the continuum peak. The absorption is weaker toward the nearby, more diffuse compact H II region C2, τ≤0.3. The H2CO velocity (-21.2 km.s–1) toward C1 is constant and agrees with the velocity of CO emission, main-line OH masers, and the H76α recombination line, but differs from the velocity of the 1720 MHz OH maser emission (~-13 km.s–1). Observations of the absorption in the J(K–,K+)=110-111 transition of formaldehyde at 6 cm toward W58C1 and C2 carried out earlier with the Westerbork Aperture Synthesis Telescope at lower resolution (∼4''x7'') show comparable optical depths and velocities to those observed at 2 cm. Based on the mean optical depth profiles at 6 and 2 cm, the volume density of molecular hydrogen n(H2) and the formaldehyde column density N(H2CO) were determined. The n(H2) is ∼6x104 cm–3 toward C1. N(H2CO) for C1 is ∼8x1014 cm–2, while that toward C2 is ∼8x1013 cm–2.
