House by Urban Splash appoint Nest to create forward-thinking interiors
An award-winning regeneration company has continued its mission of breathing new life into buildings through its work with Nest Contracts in reimagining the traditional residential sales suite in its House pavilion project.
Located in the new neighbourhood of Inholm in Cambridgeshire, this is the newest neighbourhood being created by House by Urban Splash – the modern housebuilder and sister brand to Urban Splash which is creating new homes using modern methods of construction.
The project will use a combination of touchscreen displays, virtual reality, architectural models and bespoke publications, allowing homebuyers to explore the properties set to reach completion.
Potential buyers will also have the opportunity to explore the future vision for the contemporary Fenland village, delving into the history of the location through the innovations on offer.
The minimalist structure, which welcomes customers into an exposed timber interior, features two oversized pitched roofs, filling the suite with natural light. It houses a state-of-the-art combined reception and multi-media exhibition space, alongside a remote workspace and sales suite.
The pavilion is an architecturally iconic sales centrepiece in which House by Urban Splash will base its sales teams. Working closely with Nest Contracts, the self-serve website which provides exclusive access to the leading international furniture and lighting brands, House by Urban Splash has been able to source luxury furniture and accessories which complement the modern interior.
Brands such as Ferm Living and Muuto, which were used both for their style and availability, allowed the interior designers to incorporate dark bold colours in order to successfully complement the space. Pieces such as the Ferm Living Turn Sofa and Muuto Airy Coffee Table were specified as key sculptural shapes.
A luxury design destination based in South Yorkshire, Nest’s business-to-business arm, Nest Contracts, delivers furniture, lighting and accessory design and installation services to property developers, interior designers, architects and electrical wholesalers across the UK.
Commenting on the project the retailers’ Business Development Consultant, Gemma Trebble, said: “Urban Splash is one of the most innovative and creative regeneration developers in the UK, and we’re delighted to have had the opportunity to work with them to bring their vision for the House Pavilion project to life.”
“We are already working with them on further House projects and are looking forward to see the completion of those.”
Working with clients to complete projects where possible in line with the Covid-19 restrictions, House by Urban Splash is just one of the nation-wide clients that Nest has facilitated installations for in recent months. In 2019, Nest was also appointed to furnish the sales office and showroom of the historic Park Hill building in Sheffield – one of the earliest examples of Brutalist architecture in Britain.


The iPhone 4 Camera was a blockbuster, quickly joined the top ranks of photo sources in the Flickr Community after its June 2010 debut. We talked about this just a few months ago, when the iPhone 4 managed to surpass the Nikon D90 and to become the most popular camera on Flickr.
When October 4th hit us, we expected to see iPhone 5 phone. Instead, Apple let everyone down by releasing the iPhone 4S model, which was the hardware-improved version of iPhone 4 plus the Siri Assistant.
But in the five weeks since its release, the iPhone 4S looks to be a success and sales are not the only reason. Today, we find out from Flickr, that iPhone 4S is now the second-most-popular camera phone among its users, after iPhone 4 camera. Those models are followed by iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, and HTC Evo 4G.


They take the Bible out of elementary and middle school and pat themselves on the back but now that the Book of Mormon is in the crosshairs it’s not all that much fun?
The Bible is pornographic and immoral… for a Satanist. But we must welcome all viewpoints, dont we.
Seems like the headlines are full of adults who want to ban books in schools. That’s the one thing they all agree on. They simply can’t agree which books to ban.
Constitutionally, yes we do.
Constitutionally we do. The Constitution doesnt define how to finance public schools, nor forces attendance. Can you imagine, one day teachers come in and find both their paycheck, and the children to indoctrinate and groom - missing.
Hey, if you want to remove the mandate for a public education because they are governmental agencies to whom the Bill of Rights apply, sure, yet another way conservatives would screw the middle class and the poor for protection against the “woke”. Just look at Florida to see teachers fleeing such a state.
And I would not mind having my taxes go down…
1 I didnt say remove the mandate to educate the public. The public needs to redirect their taxes from failed government schools, to schools of their choice.
2 Teachers, cops, nurses are a group that is very indicative of how well economy does. Cops run to Florida. Though I have not looked at how nurses and teachers do, I strongly suspect it is the same as cops. Care to cite your source?
3 If a teacher is compelled to show kids pornographic material or indoctrinate them against their neighbor - it is not a branch of education, but a felony. I can see why they flee.
- Florida has 5,294 teacher vacancies, the state education association says, compared with 2,217 vacancies in January 2019 when Gov. Ron DeSantis took office.
- Teachers say they are leaving because of low pay and DeSantis’ education policies, dubbed the "war on woke.
Sure , as long as they adhered to the First Amendment as its public funds paying for that school.
As for nurses, seems that they are leaving as well:
See where DeSantis got into it with the woke heckler? I stand behind him. Get your politics out of the schools. Lots of new teachers graduating every year. Give them an incentive to come to FLA, give’m the guidelines to follow and fire them if they don’t. Keep the good, trash the others.
Forgive me for not believing one word printed in Newsweek. What else happened between 2019 and now? Starts with Covid, end with 19.
What was lack of teachers before DeSantis started to push back on CRT and grooming, which started happening in 2022. Also, huge number of families moved TO Florida after 2019, creating a part of this vacancy. I am interested in analysis but not from known liers like Neesweek
And there it is, there will be no source of data that I can present that you will believe as any of them will not fit your agenda.
And your 2nd source identifies as "West central Florida’s NPR station ". I have stopped listening to NPR back in 2005, it is one of the worst in spinning, misrepresenting and shamelessly lying.
Did Florida ban the Book of Mormon from Elementary and Junior High Schools?
No that is not what he said. He said he doesn’t trust/believe Newsweek. How does not trusting a liberal rag translate to not trusting all news. Seems like he doesn’t like your favorite rag.
Went back and read my OP, it still says Davis County Utah…
I have no agenda, but certainly am not going to make a fool out of myself, listening or reading disreputable and discredited sources!
If this is all you read and listen to, I dont know if I am interested in further debate.
Newsweek was bought at a fire sell by a right wing owners in 2018…
Okay, prove it still isn’t a left leaning rag dishing out trash.
I listen to mostly right wing news sources, Newsmax, instapundit and such.
I am very liberal, I don’t need to read left wing politics as I already know the arguments,…

Researchers identify compound in bitter melon that can lower blood sugar effectively
(Natural News) Momordica charantia, or bitter melon, is a tropical vine whose fruit is commonly used in Asian cuisine. Despite its strong, bitter taste, many people still choose to eat this unusual vegetable because of its many health benefits. One of the best-known properties of bitter melon is its ability to lower blood sugar levels. This has been demonstrated in numerous studies and has led to bitter melon extracts being used as dietary supplements, especially by diabetics.
In a recent study, researchers from France and Congo investigated the active components of bitter melon grown in Congo and evaluated the antidiabetic properties of its ethanol extract. Their aim is to confirm the presence of a compound called charantine, which has been identified as the main anti-diabetic component of bitter melon. The researchers reported their findings in an article published in the Journal of Medicinal Plants Research.
Locally grown bitter melon in Congo contains anti-diabetic charantine
Bitter melon belongs to the gourd (Cucurbitaceae) family and is closely related to common garden fruits like cucumber, pumpkin, squash and zucchini. It is widely grown in tropical regions in Africa and is also used as a vegetable as well as a natural medicine. In Congo, bitter melon is known as a traditional treatment for diabetes and is also used a remedy for various ailments, such as constipation, malaria and parasitic worm infections.
However, despite the widespread use of locally grown bitter melon as folk medicine, no studies have been done to analyze its chemical and biological properties. To address this, the researchers decided to conduct several experiments using ethanol extracts derived from the leaves of bitter melon. According to literature, bitter melons from China and India are rich in bioactive components, such as alkaloids, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, plant steroids, saponins and tannins.
Phytochemical studies of bitter melon extracts eventually led to the identification of various compounds, such as momordicosides, momordenol, momordicin, cucurbitacin and charantine. Among these, charantine is the only compound that has been reported to exert anti-diabetic effects. Charantine can be isolated from the seeds, fruits and leaves of the bitter melon plant.
For their experiment, the researchers analyzed the ethanol extract of locally grown bitter melon using gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. They confirmed the presence of charantine in the extract. To test its anti-diabetic activities, the researchers treated rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes with the bitter melon extract. They reported that the extract reduced blood sugar levels in the diabetic mice by 51.62 percent after three hours.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that the presence of anti-diabetic charantine in bitter melon growing in Congo justifies its use in Traditional Congolese Medicine.

Here at Cheaper Than Dirt! we often get the question “which AR-15 is best?” That’s a dangerous question to ask a bunch of gun nuts like us. Pretty soon one guy is ranting about which guns the Navy SEALS use now, another guy is trying to explain about which barrel twist rate is best, and a third guy is talking about boycotting a company because they supported a politician he didn’t like 10 years ago. It’s hard to get a straight answer, we know. But the invisible hand of capitalism provides us with one kind of answer—perhaps the “best” AR-15 is the one that gun owners purchase the most. We ran a computer report of our best-selling long guns, dug into it looking for the AR-15s, and here are the results. All of these rifles represent an excellent value for the money, as proven by the fact that they were chosen most often!
#5 — Stag Model 3
The Stag Model 3 comes with a chrome lined barrel, but the twist rate is 1/9, not optimal for shooting the heavier 70 grain and up 5.56 rounds that are currently all the rage with hunters and precision shooters. If you’re just going to be shooting 55 grain pills you won’t notice a difference. The great value of the Stag Model 3 is that it comes with a railed forend and railed gas block from the factory, so it’s completely ready to be accessorized. The disadvantage is, you HAVE to accessorize it immediately—with no factory sights included you’ll need to sink extra money into some way to aim this thing before you ever tote it to the range.
#4 — S&W M&P 15X
The Smith & Wesson M&P 15 X is a lot like the Stag, but with iron sights! A traditional A-frame sight up front and a high quality Troy unit in the rear which folds down out-of-the-way so you have a clear view through your optic of choice. Again we have a chrome-lined M4 style carbine barrel, and again we have that pesky civilian 1/9 twist rate. The M&P comes in at just under a thousand bucks. Not bad but as you’ll see, not enough to make it quite to the top in terms of value either.
#3 — Bushmaster ORC
Coming in at number three on our list is the a Bushmaster ORC. I personally think it would be cool if they tied it in to Lord of the Rings somehow, but I’m a dork that way. ORC stands for Optics Ready Carbine, which is shorthand for “hope you don’t like iron sights at all” because there’s no way to put irons on this gun without at least buying a railed forend. So why does it outsell the Smith & Wesson and Stag Arms guns? This rifle sports a chrome lined, 1/9 twist (sigh) barrel and quality components throughout. If you know before you buy that you’ll never want to shoot this gun using iron sights, why not save a couple hundred bucks over its competitors?
#2 — Colt SP6920
The Colt 6920 is the closest thing the American citizen can get to the rifle issued to our soldiers fighting around the world. It is the highest quality rifle on this list. Barrel twist rate (finally!) is 1/7, one complete bullet revolution per seven inches of barrel, which is the military specification and which will effectively stabilize bullets from 55 grains to 77 grains in weight. They say the devil is in the details, and a detailed analysis of this gun will show it to be made of superior materials and workmanship. For nearly two decades now the 6920 has stood as the epitome of the “M4 Carbine,” and the loyalty to Colt and their design shows in the sales of this model.
#1 — CMMG M4 LE
The number one selling AR-15 at Cheaper Than Dirt for 2011 was Central Missouri Machine Gun’s M4 LE. This proves the wisdom of its customers, because the CMMG is built to exacting specifications yet saves over $200 compared to the Colt 6920. The M4 LE comes with a folding back up sight from Magpul instead of the Colt’s detachable carry handle, and there are a few other differences. For example, instead of chrome lining the barrel is nitrided in a process CMMG calls their “WASP” finish, which provides for excellent corrosion resistance and improved accuracy over a chrome lined barrel. I honestly can’t think of an AR-15 that’s a better value per dollar spent. Maybe I’m biased, since I have owned many CMMG guns over the years, but obviously I’m not the only one who feels this way—more Cheaper Than Dirt! customers bought CMMG rifles than any other AR-15 this year!

Bruce Rauner narrowly won the Republican primary for governor. He'll face Governor Pat Quinn, who is aiming for a second full-term. Neither of the wins were surprising, but the margins were.
Quinn was basically guaranteed Democrat's nod, after former White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley dropped out of the running in September.
Still Quinn's so-called "token" opponent, Tio Hardiman — who had no money to really run a campaign — grabbed 28 percent of the vote. That's largely being viewed more as "anti-Quinn" than "pro-Hardiman."
Gov. Pat Quinn's challenger in the March primary says the Chicago Democrat's claims that ``Illinois is making a comeback'' don't add up.
Tio Hardiman is a Hillside Democrat and the former director of a Chicago anti-violence program. He spoke following Quinn's State of the State address Wednesday in Springfield. Quinn said during the speech that Illinois has improved since he took office.
Among this week's topics: Republican Gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner's statements on whether or not he used his clout to get his daughter into an elite school, Tio Hardiman's challenge to Governor Pat Quinn as the possible Democratic candidate for governor, and also new political endorsements from Illinois unions.
A Democratic challenger to incumbent Governor Pat Quinn says he received the "best news in the world" Thursday morning, he gets to remain on the ballot. Not anyone can run for office in Illinois. Getting on the ballot requires turning in paperwork, including signatures of registered voters. Tio Hardiman, the former director of the anti-violence group Ceasefire, says he did that.
"We put a lot of work into this campaign. We've traveled the entire state, it's not like we just jumped up overnight and said let's run for governor," Hardiman said.
Republicans, including (from left) Tres. Dan Rutherford's running mate Steve Kim, Sen. Kirk Dillard and Sen. Bill Brady - both of whom are running for governor - stood in line to file their elections paperwork late last year.
Some candidates sent surrogates to file their petitions; others went themselves, including lieutenant governor candidate Steve Kim ( who is GOP Tres. Dan Rutherford's running mate) and Republican gubernatorial candidates Sen. Kirk Dillard of Hinsdale and Sen. Bill Brady of Bloomington.
Candidates looking to run in the March primary began filing their paperwork today (11/25) with the State Board of Elections. Anyone who was in line by 8 a.m. gets a chance at the top spot on the ballot. Six men who want to be Illinois' next governor made that deadline.
Campaigns waited in a long line, despite a forecast of snow, so that they could get their petitions in. Some candidates send staffers as surrogates, including Democratic incumbent Pat Quinn and one of his four Republican challengers, Bruce Rauner.

The EU’s unified Neighborhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument (NDICI) provides the means to secure the Africa-EU Infrastructure for Geoscience (AEIG) programme within the framework of the Africa-Europe Radio Astronomy Program (AERAP). This programme promotes partnership with Sub-Saharan Africa and directly addresses, actions linked to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the global challenges of training women and climate change. It is in line with UN SDG 17, “partnerships for the goals” and the African Union’s Agenda 2063 for socio-economic transformation.
The foundation for this strong and enduring partnership needs to be rooted in our shared Earth, informed by the knowledge of what science and technology can bring. Geoscience is required to justly achieve the green transition and the digital transformation while delivering the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals for our planet home.
Specifically the programme would address:
1. Synergies between African and European geological surveys and research consortia.
2. Human capital development including designated funding for development of young women geoscientists and young researchers
3. Support for water security, agricultural sustainability, energy security, raw materials availability especially with regards the critical minerals necessary for decarbonisation, the blue economy, and community safety from geohazards including climate change and the Green Deal.Human capital development including designated funding for development of young women geoscientists and young researchers.
4. Critical information for global, national region and local government policymakers, land-use and natural resources management and regulators;
5. Digital and sensor infrastructure for geo-and related sciences.
Viable solutions to ensure carbon neutrality in Europe by 2050 must be based on accurate, reliable Earth-related data. Strategically collecting the vast amounts of necessary data will involve developing and constructing cutting-edge analytical platforms and ICT infrastructure. It will also require a step-change to empower African and European citizens to engage in citizen projects throughout our two continents. The production of young new geoscientists, particularly women, with data analysis and management skills will accelerate sustainable growth, create new jobs, and provides the promise of more virtual mobility through the availability of the new data.
Beyond the direct data and related societally important knowledge gained, an AU-EU geoscience partnership would also yield exciting new insights in fields such as geodesy and geodynamics and is likely to influence existing fundamental scientific paradigms in myriad other fields from astronomy to zoology.

Graphs are networks that represent relationships between objects through some events. In the real world, graphs are ubiquitous; they can be seen in complex forms such as social networks, biological processes, cybersecurity linkages, fiber optics, and as simple as nature's life cycle.
Since graphs have greater expressivity than images or texts, Graph Neural Network (GNN) applications have increased tremendously in the past decade. They are actively used in drug discovery, human-object interaction, text classification, point cloud classification and segmentation, and so on, all of which are discussed in detail later.
Here’s what we'll cover:

Ready to streamline AI product deployment right away? Check out:
A graph comprises nodes (objects or entities) and the links that determine relationships between nodes. Mathematically, the nodes are called ‘Vertices,’ and the links are called ‘Edges.’ Graphs can be of two forms—Directed or Undirected.
Directed graphs denote the direction of dependency between nodes. It can either be uni-directed or bi-directed.
A real-world example of directed graphs can be Followers on Instagram.
The above figure shows an example of a unidirectional link: Joan follows Justin Bieber, but Justin Bieber does not follow Joan back. Since Justin Bieber follows Kanye and Kanye follows Justin Bieber back, they are bi-directionally linked.
Undirected graphs do not have any directions of dependencies; the nodes can be considered mutually linked.
A real-world example of undirected graphs can be Followers on LinkedIn.
There are mainly three possible types of graph prediction problems—Graph-level, Node-level, and Edge-level. The basic building block for these graph prediction problems is Graph Convolution. Let’s dive right into it.
Since images comprise pixels, graph nodes can be analogously considered as pixels - each node (pixel) is connected to adjacent nodes (pixels). Convolution in Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is a simple sliding window method over the whole image that multiplies the image pixels with the filter weights. Similarly, graph convolution uses information from the neighboring nodes to predict features of a given node xi. Convolution is an operation that happens on euclidean data since data in graphs is unordered and dynamic; it is non-euclidean data. Hence, a function needs to be applied to the node’s features to transform them into a latent space hi, which can then be used for further algorithmic computation.
A graph-level task involves predicting some property for the complete graph. An example of such a task could be determining whether a social network group comprises ‘friends,’ ‘family,’ or ‘corporates.’ With images, the graph-level prediction would be analogous to image classification by assigning image labels such as ‘rainy,’ ‘sunny,’ or ‘snowy’ to images of different seasons. Similarly, for text, it could mean predicting the context of the text, whether it belongs to the ‘news,’ ‘law,’ or ‘education’ category.
Let’s talk about a specific task under graph-level prediction, i.e., Graph Classification.
All the node features are aggregated to obtain a classification label for the complete graph, and some permutation-invariant (i.e., indifferent to the order of inputs) function such as mean, sum, or pooling is applied to them.
A node-level task involves predicting some property for the node or the node object itself. Let’s consider an example from chemistry. In a graph containing the biomolecular structure of a substance comprising two compounds, A and B, predicting whether a node (a molecule) belongs to compound A or compound B denotes node-level prediction. In the case of images, this task is analogous to predicting the class of all individual pixels, such as semantic segmentation, whereas, with text, this is similar to predicting parts of speech.
To predict a label for an individual node denoted by Zi, the function f is applied to the individual node features hi.
An edge-level prediction involves predicting the relationship between different node objects. For example, imagine a cricket scene with a batsman, a bowler, a fielder, an umpire, and the audience. In the graph world, all of these can be represented as nodes having some links with each other. Now, predicting the facts that the bowler “is bowling” to the batsman, or a fielder “is catching the ball,” or the audience “is watching” the match is an example of edge-level prediction. This is analogous to action recognition or scene understanding in images and predicting the dependency tree for words in texts.
To predict the labels for edges, the function f is applied over the features aggregated from the nodes connecting the edge as well as the existing edge features if there are any.
One of the significant challenges in analyzing a graph is the non-euclidean nature of the data.
The size of the graph is dynamic. The number of nodes can range from tens or hundreds to the order of millions; similarly, each node can have a variable number of edges. Due to this property, it is challenging to represent and analyze graphs by existing standard methods for images and texts.
Images and texts have a fixed number of attributes whereas graphs can expand or contract with respect to time. Therefore, representing graphs by an adjacency matrix is inefficient as it can create very sparse matrices. Also, there can be multiple adjacency matrices representing the same graph. They are not permutation invariant as there is no certainty that they will generate the same result. To deal with this problem, adjacency lists can be used to represent graphs as they can handle the problem of sparsity and permutation invariance.
Analyzing graphs is difficult due to their dynamic nature. Standard convolution that is applied on images cannot be applied here. There have been several attempts to modify convolutions to suit the graph data structure.
One is adopting depthwise separable convolutions to handle the dynamic data dimensions.
Another strategy was to use dilated convolutions to increase the receptive field for capturing more features for increasing graph dimensions.
Unfortunately, both these attempts failed because the kernel sizes and dilation rates need to be set up manually depending on the graph, which is undoable in real scenarios. Hence, Graph Neural Networks were proposed to deal with graph prediction problems effectively.
A Graph Neural Network (GNN) is a ‘Graph In, Graph Out’ network. It takes the input graph comprising embeddings for edges, nodes, and global context and generates the output graph with transformed and updated embeddings by preserving the graph symmetry. GNNs are efficient architectures for solving different graph prediction problems for graph-level, node-level, and edge-level tasks.
GNN architectures can mainly be categorized into Spectral, Spatial, and Sampling methods.
Let’s understand each of them and look at some of the most common GNN architectures.
To understand this domain of methods, let’s first briefly understand some graph theory.
Spectral methods perform graph convolution in the spectral domain. Graphs are converted from spatial domain to spectral domain using the concept of discrete Fourier transform. As the graph is projected to an orthogonal space, a feature matrix U will be obtained from a spectral decomposition of a Laplacian matrix. Hence, U is a matrix comprising eigenvalues of corresponding eigenvectors. The graph Fourier transform is obtained by taking a dot product of eigenvalues with a function f that maps the graph vertices to some number on the real line which can ultimately represent as:
Since we have obtained the Fourier transform, graph convolution in the spectral domain is simply a multiplication of the spectral input signal and the spectral convolution kernel.
The above equation represents that convolution operation in the spatial domain changes to the product of the Fourier transform of signal (F1) and kernel (F2) in the spectral domain.
Now that you know what spectral methods are, let's understand the two most common GNN architectures under this category.
This method replaces the spectral convolutional kernel with a self-learning diagonal matrix. It allows learning the convolutional filters for graph prediction tasks.
The modified convolutional kernel is represented as:
Here, gθ is the set of self-learning parameters. X is an N-dimensional input vector. U is the matrix for eigen vectors, and 𝛬 is the diagonal matrix.
Given the advantage that the kernel is learnable, there are also some significant disadvantages that make this method inefficient.
Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) is one of the most commonly used methods due to its simple, scalable architecture and computational efficiency.
The simplest GCN has three layers:
First, convolution is performed for each node in the convolution layer graph. The feature information from the neighbors of the nodes is aggregated and the nodes are updated likewise. Next, a non-linear activation function such as ReLU is applied to the output of the convolution layer. Similarly, multiple convolutions and non-linear activation layers can be stacked to reach optimal accuracy.
GCNs can perform node-level as well as graph-level prediction tasks. Node-level classification is possible with local output functions which classify individual node features to predict a tag. For graph-level classification, features from the entire graph are aggregated using differentiable pooling, which is then used to predict a label for the complete graph.
While GCNs are easier to code and implement, there are certain limitations accompanying them:
Spectral methods have the following disadvantages:
Therefore, let’s look at what spatial methods offer and which are commonly used architectures under this category.
Spatial methods follow the standard approach of graph convolution used under graph topology—transforming the node’s features with a permutation-invariant function and aggregating those features to update the node’s feature values.
Message-passing phenomena in the graphs are essential to utilize graph connectivity's potential fully. Specific information can be encoded in the edges or nearby nodes relevant to the prediction task. Hence, message passing can supply information to the particular node or edge.
Intuitively, message passing is similar to convolution for images. Convolution operation in images parses over the entire image; likewise, in message passing after k layers, a node will be aware of the information in nodes k steps away from it. Mathematically, a message mij sent across the edges i and j can be defined as:
Here f is a small Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP).
When messages arrive at nodes, the feature representation of the node will update to contain these messages. All the messages are combined using a permutation-invariant aggregator function such as sum. The messages are combined with the existing feature vectors of the node, and they are passed into another MLP to output the final feature vector of the node.
MPNN is a compelling framework to use as it’s very generic, however, it suffers from scalability issues because it needs to process and store edge features as well as node features.
GAT introduces the concept of attention mechanism in graph networks. In typical algorithms, the same convolutional kernel parameters are applied over all nodes of the graph; however, in real scenarios, they can either lead to loss or overestimation of certain information. Therefore, adopting different convolutional parameters would allow adjusting the degree of association between nodes and determining the corresponding importance of nodes.
The attention coefficients are calculated by passing node or edge features into an attention function. The softmax function is applied over the obtained value to give the final weights.
Mathematically, the update rule of GAT is represented as:
Here, 𝛼ijk denotes the attention coefficients, Wk is the weight matrix, and hj is the node features.
Overall, GATs are scalable, computationally efficient, and invariant to the choice of attention function used.
In the real world, graphs are usually complex and contain a massive number of nodes and edges. Because of their dynamic nature, they can even expand to larger sizes. In such scenarios, computing feature vectors of nodes by aggregating features from all the neighboring nodes would be computationally inefficient. Hence, to handle the scalability issues, we will sample and use only a subset of nodes instead of all.
We will look at two of the most exciting sampling methods—GraphSage and DeepWalk.
GraphSage employs a basic strategy of uniform sampling. The nodes obtained from uniform sampling will only contribute to feature information. The aggregated feature information from these nodes would finally be used to perform node or graph classification.
GraphSage extends the neighborhood depth k on each layer. The algorithm will learn feature information from k nodes away with every additional layer. This approach saves a lot of computation time as all nodes are not involved in computation for each layer.
Depending on the task, this algorithm is flexible enough to be trained in either a supervised or unsupervised manner. There is also a possibility to train the following aggregation functions alongside—mean aggregator, LSTM aggregator, and max pooling aggregator. This facility will allow the model to learn which aggregator function will aggregate the features better for a specific task.
This algorithm works in two stages. The first corresponds to discovering the local graph structure, and the second involves applying a skip-gram model to the sequences detected in the first stage.
Stage 1: Random Walks
The network is traversed through random walks. To begin with, a node is selected randomly, then out of all its neighboring nodes, and another node is selected randomly. Likewise, it goes on until the sequence length reaches its limit. The number of random walks is given by parameter ‘k,’ and the length of each sequence is denoted by parameter ‘l.’ Increasing the parameter ‘k’ would lead to a broader graph exploration, whereas increasing ‘l’ means distant nodes are also similar.
Stage 2: Skip-gram model
Skip-gram is a popular method used to learn word embeddings. This is used here because the distribution of the words in a corpus and the nodes in a graph both follow the power law. In the context of the text, given a corpus and window size, the words that appear in the same window tend to have similar meanings and closer word embeddings. Likewise, skip-gram attempts to maximize the similarity of the nodes that occur in the same random walk.
Thereafter, a set of random vectors are generated for each node to learn the node embeddings using the skip-gram method. Next, gradient descent is applied to these vectors to update the node embeddings and maximize the probability of the neighboring nodes given a node by using a softmax function. When all walks are covered, further optimization can be continued on the same new random walks that can be generated.
Let’s go through a few most common uses of Graph Neural Networks.
LiDAR sensors are prevalent because of their applications in environment perception, for example, in self-driving cars. They plot the real-world data in 3D point clouds used for 3D segmentation tasks. GNNs can be used to represent these points as a graph and classify them for segmentation. The figure below shows an example of how a GNN model converts the point clouds to give classification tags.
A corpus of words can be represented in the form of a graph, having nodes as words and edges as the connections between them. Classification can be performed on the node level or graph level. Text classification with GNNs can be used for real-world applications such as news categorization, product recommendation, or disease detection from symptoms. GNNs provides the advantage of learning about long-distance semantic relationships and give a more precise visualization of the interdependencies of words in a text.
Since graphs consist of links (edges) between objects (nodes) they are a great way to represent interactions between them. In a scene, humans and objects can be modeled as nodes, and their relationship (represented by edges) can be identified using edge prediction. In computer vision, GNNs can be used to solve the problem of Human Activity Recognition.
GNNs can be used to extract the relations between words in NLP. It refers to predicting the text's semantic relations, which could be contextual or grammatical, such as establishing a dependency tree. The figure below shows a GNN architecture for the specific task of dialogue relation extraction.
GNNs is an active field of research in the domain of Particle Physics. It deals with studying laws related to particle interactions which can be very well represented with graphs. For example, GNNs can be used to predict the system properties of collision dynamics. Currently, GNNs are being used at the Large Hadron Collider to detect interesting particles from the images produced by various particle physics experiments.
Drug discovery is one of the most pressing challenges in chemistry and society. The fact that billions of dollars are invested annually in research for drug discovery, and once begun, it takes nearly 10-12 years for the drug to be released to the public calls for some automation. AI using GNNs can help reduce the time taken for research and assist in feedback or screening processes. GNNs can address questions such as ‘Is X drug safe?’, ‘What are the possible combinations of bonds to generate a drug Y similar to X?’, ‘Which drug can be used to treat disease Z?’ and so on.
The given figure shows the role of GNN in inferring a question about a drug based on the existing relational data between drugs and diseases.

Robbie Robertson, best known as the lead guitarist for the Band (formed in 1967), died on August 9, at 80 years of age, from prostate cancer. The group with which he was most famously associated officially broke up in 1976, an action largely motivated by Robertson himself.
The Band’s “farewell” performance was held at the Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco on Thanksgiving night 1976, billed as The Last Waltz. It was a five-hour-long extravaganza, featuring some of the most popular musical artists of the day—Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Muddy Waters, Paul Butterfield, Eric Clapton, Dr. John, Van Morrison, Ringo Starr and even popular singer-songwriter Neil Diamond. The event was filmed by Martin Scorsese and released in 1978 under the same title. It also featured post-production performances by the Staple Singers and Emmylou Harris.
The farewell concert and ensuing documentary were the beginning of a new stage in Robertson’s musical career, a less remarkable and tumultuous musical period but perhaps more remunerative. He worked with Scorsese on the music for several films, including Raging Bull, The King of Comedy and The Color of Money, and years later, Shutter Island, The Wolf of Wall Street and others.
Signing with Geffen Records in the 1980s, he recorded several albums, none of which were as successful, musically or otherwise, as those put out in the name of the Band. After the release of The Last Waltz, he produced two top-selling albums for Diamond.
Perhaps Robertson’s most consequential work of his last four decades was Once Were Brothers, his personal narrative of the Band made into a film. The documentary was largely based on his 2016 memoir, titled Testimony. It was viewed as his response to his late former band member Levon Helm’s 1993 account, This Wheel’s on Fire.
The Band was widely noted as a collective effort of all five musicians. There was no frontman. Helm’s book advanced the argument that Robertson, however talented he was, took more writing credit than he deserved and therefore the lion’s share of the royalties. He maintained that the breakup of the group was engineered by Robertson along with entertainment VIPs who stood to profit from the plan. Helm also asserted that the tragic fates of band members Richard Manuel and Rick Danko (suicide and early death related to substance abuse, respectively) were the direct result.
Robertson was born in Toronto during World War II to a mother, who was a Cayuga and Mohawk, and a father, as he later learned, who was Jewish-American and at some point a professional gambler. His mother lived for a time in Cabbagetown, a major working class neighborhood in downtown Toronto. Robertson made family visits to the Six Nations of the Grand River reserve as a child, where he was taught to play guitar. He grew up an admirer of rock and roll and rhythm and blues.
In 1959, age 16, he met American rockabilly artist Ronnie Hawkins, and it was in Hawkins’ band that the future members of the Band met and coalesced.
A half-century after its entry onto the music scene, the Band still generates a great deal of interest. The group’s music, like a good deal from that period, remains respected and influential. At its best, it combines intimacy, soulfulness and urgency, firmly planted in popular musical traditions but extending and transcending the latter. The Band represents both high-quality, professional musicianship and nuanced intelligence about human relationships.
One year before the release of the Band’s first album, the US had undergone what was dubbed the “long hot summer of ’67.” Ghetto rebellions flared up in many major cities, most notably Detroit, where thousands of National Guardsmen were sent in by President Lyndon Johnson. Simultaneously, the US government and military were escalating the Vietnam War, which was being fought by young working class men, many from urban centers, who were sucked into the increasingly bloody war in Southeast Asia. Protests grew across the US and the world against the war, and the music quickly began to reflect that opposition.
While the Band eschewed direct social commentary, its music emerged at a time when a generally anti-establishment mood prevailed. The transformation of that atmosphere in the late 1970s had an impact, not a generally happy one, on the Band, its music and the lives of its members.
Of course, what became known as the protest era had begun earlier, particularly centered on the struggle for civil rights in the South and beyond. The postwar economic boom ushered in contradictory economic and social conditions that made racial inequality and Jim Crow racism stand out in sharp relief. The rising radicalization of middle class youth in particular was accompanied by folk music, which Peter Yarrow of the trio Peter, Paul and Mary described as the “liturgy of the consciousness of change in America.”
The seat of folk music quickly became the coffee houses and bistros of New York City’s Greenwich Village. Bob Dylan was one of its primary exponents or embodiments, a talented and ambitious young man from Minnesota who adopted the style and personal manner of his hero, the Dustbowl troubadour Woodie Guthrie, and applied his own lyrics to current social issues.
In the early sixties, Dylan was promoted as the “spokesman of a generation,” but quite soon, the most prominent product of the British musical scene—the Beatles—had a huge impact on American popular music.
In response to musical and other cultural changes taking place, Dylan decided to perform at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival with a rock backup band, resulting in an infamous clash of cultures. In a tempestuous performance that evening with his electric backing, he was booed by many in his audience.
Meanwhile, Robertson’s band, then called Levon and the Hawks, consisting of four Canadians and one Arkansan, achieved notoriety as the tightest band around. After the Newport festival, Dylan made up his mind to go electric and sought a band to accompany him. By the end of that summer, the Hawks quit their regular gig in New Jersey and signed on as Dylan’s band.
They went on tour in the US, Europe and Australia performing at huge venues while crowds alternately cheered or booed, and even threw things at the musicians. Dylan was called a sellout and a “Judas,” which made him all the more determined to stay his musical course. Whenever they performed for the next several months, the singer and his band encountered booing and hostility, as well as admiration.
Then, in July 1966, Dylan broke his neck in a motorcycle accident, forcing a hiatus.
Dylan and his backup musicians used the downtime to explore creative possibilities. The latter set up an ad hoc practice and recording studio in the basement of a house in West Saugerties, New York (near Woodstock) known as “Big Pink” and in 1967 began a unique collaboration on recordings, some with Dylan, some without. Musically, it was an environment that could be described as an incubator. In December 1967 Dylan released his long-awaited first album since Blonde on Blonde, John Wesley Harding. The music was a rupture from what he had done previously. It was tuneful and consciously evocative of America’s frontier days. “All Along the Watchtower” and “I Pity the Poor Immigrant” were featured and of a piece with the music that was being hatched out of the basement of the famed “pink house.”
Word had got around that Dylan’s backup group was due to release a groundbreaking album. They had played with him at the Woody Guthrie Memorial Concert in January 1968, creating a strong impression.
The Band’s Music from Big Pink was released to popular acclaim July 1, 1968. Breaking with precedent, the first cut on the album was a ballad, “Tears of Rage.” Dylan wrote the words and Manuel the music. It was the opposite of a protest song, telling the story of the heartbroken parents of a young girl, who left home to be a part of the “counterculture.”
It wasn’t until after the first album’s release that the group officially adopted the name “The Band.” That is what they had become known as in the Woodstock area. The recording contract they signed in 1967 with Capitol Records listed them as “The Crackers.”
The Band went on to record six more studio albums before the official breakup in 1976. In an interview with Musician Magazine, Robertson said that he broke up the Band because “we had done it for 16 years, and there was really nothing else to learn from it.”
As a member of the Band, Robertson was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. The only surviving member of the Band is Garth Hudson.

Toyota 5M-GE engines: details and photos
|155 and up
The culmination of fifteen years of development and the production of over 400,000 dual-overhead-cam engines, the 5M-GE engine started out in 1982 Toyota cars with 145 horsepower. It quickly gained efficiency and power, ending up with 175 hp; the engine was known for instant response, thanks to computer-controlled electronic fuel injection and unique hydraulic lash adjusters that kept valve clearance to zero (Toyota’s first use of hydraulic lifters). The cams were driven by fabric/rubber timing belts.
The 2.8 liter engine had hemispherical combustion chambers, which allowed for a cross-flow head (intake valve on one side, exhaust on the other), and a central spark plug location; the design was similar to the monster Chrysler Hemi engines that had been discontinued a decade earlier.
An otherwise standard V6 design, the 5M-GE had two valves per cylinder (in keeping with the hemispherical-head design), activated by dual overhead cams, driven by a belt drive. The engine was only used in the Supra and Cressida.
In 1982, when the 5M-GE was introduced, Toyota was the world's largest maker of DOHC engines (their R-series four-cylinders had also been adapted to have twin cams). They put the camshafts in the 5M-GE on either side of the engine, directly over the valve system, reducing weight and allowing higher revving and quicker response. The gain in power over the 1981 engines was a hefty 25%. Engine noise was reduced by using timing belts instead of chains.
The electronic fuel injection monitored air intake volume, throttle position, collant temperature, air temperature, exhaust oxygen density, injection timing, engine rpm, and engine cranking. Multiple fuel injectors were used to atomize gasoline just before the valve openings; the system was derived from the Bosch L Jetronic system (a descendent of the original Bendix design), but using airflow metering.
As with most engines of the time, electronic ignition eliminated points and condensors, but the 1982 cars had a vacuum-advance distributor. The 1983 cars controlled timing advance electronically, boosting U.S. horsepower ratings to 150 (the company also switched from round to D-shaped intake runners, altered the computer, control, refined the exhaust system, and boosted the compression ratio).
For the 1984 Toyota cars, the original dual V-belt “fan belts” were replaced by seven-rib serpentine belts; the camshaft belt went from square to round tooths; the compression ratio was boosted; a knock sensor was added to deal with substandard fuel; intake runners were modified; and the oil pan was deepened. These changes brought the rating to 160 horsepower. The alternator was also dropped from 65 to 60 amps. Other changes boosted power to 161 hp in 1986 cars, and to 175 hp in the 1987 cars.
The 5M-GE was part of a family of engines known as the “M” engines, starting in 1965 and ending in 1992. They were made in single and dual cam versions, went up to 110 gross horsepower to 267 net horsepower, had either carburetors and fuel injectors, had turbo models, and ranged from 2.0 liters to 3.0 liters.

We spent Thursday with Joe and Olivia, who had taken the day off (thanks guys!) to show us around Denver and the foothills to the west. After a hearty breakfast of crisp bacon and pancakes, we set out towards Morrison and hiked a loop tucked in the foothills. The Turkey Trot trail featured vistas of Denver mixed with areas that could’ve been a hundred miles into the wilderness given the silence and scenery.
Venturing into the foothills west of Denver. Just a short drive from Red Rocks Amphitheatre and the Coors Brewery
After the hike, we refueled with tacos at Torchy’s in Greenwood Village. We finished up a game of Settlers of Catan back at their house and put our feet up for the night.
Arapahoe Basin, or “A-Basin,” was our destination early Friday morning as we left Denver around 6 AM. We hadn’t been skiing in about a year, in addition to never having skied in the West. The drive out was picturesque, with snow coating an array of spruce and pine trees as we pushed up the highway into the mountains.
A-Basin is a bowl-shaped ski area off the beaten path along US-6 just past Loveland Pass and featuring plenty of fresh powder runs. To say we weren’t prepared would be an understatement. With our lack of ski-legs or any recent ski trips, and at an elevation topping 11,000 feet, we tried our best to carve through the clouds beneath our skis. All I can say is that each time we went up, we made it back to the bottom. But if the price of the views from the top of the mountain was taking an occasional digger on the way down, it was well worth it.
Arapahoe Basin is situated in Arapaho National Forest and lies about 60 miles west of Denver.
We wrapped up our last run around 2PM and began our trek back eastbound and down to Denver. It was mind-boggling to see just how much traffic was heading west into the mountains for the weekend, especially considering how remote the surrounding area is. But, in addition to folks making their weekly retreat into the highlands, it’s the weekend of the X-games in Aspen, further swelling the already-hypertense artery that is I-70.
Dinner was at Highland Tap & Burger in the Highlands neighborhood of Denver. Along with Joe and Olivia, we met up with our friend Dave from back east, who had moved out to Boulder last year. The company was second to none, the food was excellent, and we enjoyed some of the local brews to wash it all down.
Our next chapter takes us back west, sliding up over the Rockies and toward Moab, UT. Stay tuned.
