- Show that two long, straight, and parallel conductors conducting direct current in the same direction attract each other.
- Two circuits are shown in Figure 3. Both circuits contain resistors, capacitors, and coils. The values of resistor R, capacitance and inductance are the same in both circuits. Each circuit contains an AC voltage source. These sources are identical with same frequency and rms voltage. Frequency to AC voltage sources are very small. In which circuit does the AC power source provide the largest rms current? Explain your answer.
A coil with 10 windings lies in a magnetic field B with size 1.0 mT which points in the positive y-direction, as shown in figure 4. The coil has an end diameter of 1.0 cm and a resistance of 0.20 W.The coil is connected to an uncharged capacitor with a capacitance of 1.0 μF. The coil is quickly pulled to the right (x-direction) out of the magnetic field.
- Find the direction of the induced current, as well as the voltage induced across the capacitor and the charge on the capacitor

October is National Bullying Prevention Month. Do you know how to recognize and prevent cyberbullying?
Several teen suicides have been linked to cyberbullying, but the reality may be more complicated. According to a report from the American Academy of Pediatrics, cyberbullying is rarely the sole factor contributing to suicide. In cases where suicide is linked with cyberbullying, other factors exist, such as offline bullying and mental health issues, such as depression.
Bullying has negative repercussions, especially for kids who are struggling with a variety of issues. Unfortunately, both online and offline bullying is pretty prevalent, though suicide attempts are fairly rare. Certain types of social media — such as question sites that allow kids to pose questions anonymously — seem to attract destructive behavior.
What should you do if you’re concerned about your child?
- Look for warning signs. Take note of your child’s attitudes, behaviors and moods.
- The tween and teen years can be rocky, so you might have to probe a little to determine whether something more serious is going on.
- Talk to your kid about her social media experiences, help her set limits on how much time she spends online and who her online friends are and get her involved in offline activities. Steer her away from sites that aren’t positive and productive.
- The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline offers comprehensive information and counseling.
Find age-specific guidelines, videos and articles to help with tough conversations at Common Sense Media’s cyberbullying content hub.

Alcis Sports is finding success in making sportswear out of plastic bottles, Quartz reports.
Based in India, the company is determined to make 90% of apparel out of recycled polyethylene terephthalate bottles (also known as PET bottles), in the next two years. After coming up with the resourceful idea in 2016, now up to 50% of clothing from Paragon Apparels (its parent company) is made of recycled PET bottles.
Alcis Sports has already proven to be profitable and made $250 million in 2017, according to Quartz. It’s predicted to bring in twice as much money for 2018.
Take Action: Take the Plastic Pledge: #UnplasticthePlanet
Roshan Baid, the owner of Paragon Apparels and Alcis Sports melts recycled plastic for yarn at a small plant in Mumbai using technology that makes garments breathable, light, and moisture-wicking. Eight PET plastic bottles can be turned into one athletic T-shirt.
In 2016, Paragon Apparels landed a deal to manufacture all of Reebok’s Indian sportswear. Around that time, Baid became fed up with plastic’s negative impact on the environment. The National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) graduate hasn’t stopped finding innovative ways to use recycled materials ever since.
When it comes to the Dussehra spirit of the victory of good, there's nothing quite as wonderful as the #WonderTee, which is made from 8 recycled plastic bottles. Celebrate this Dussehra by being a part of this initiative by #AlcisPerformanceWear #BeTheGame #HappyDussehra #fitclothing #clothing #fashionblogger #fitnessblog #plastic #plasticbottle #reuse #recycle #reusereducerecycle #banplastic #zumbafitness #fitnessfashion #comfort #comfortwear #bhopal #dussehra #dussera #victoryday #destroyevil #ayodhya #mumbaifashionblogger
Plastic bottles are known to endanger marine life and threaten human health. One study found certain types of plastics could take 450 years to break down. More than 380 million metric tons of plastic are produced every year, and plastic production is expected to increase by 40% over the next decade.
Clothing made out of recycled plastic might not completely solve the problem — their microfibres are thought to shed in washing machines and spread to the ocean, too.
India alone produced over 15,324 tons of plastic waste every day, according to The Energy and Resources Institute (Teri). The country produced about 1,500 kilotons of PET between 2015 and 2016 alone, which was much higher than the previous year’s production (982 kilotons). The country is on track to minimize the country’s use and will ban all single-use plastics by 2022.
But Baid wanted to bring it one step further than banning plastics. He realized using yarn made of recycled plastic was more sustainable than polyester, a material commonly used for sportswear because it’s stretchy. Polyester, however, requires a lot of water, chemicals and, fossil fuels to make that result in toxic byproducts.
Clothing made out of recycled plastic, on the other, hand is more efficient, reduces carbon emissions by over 54% and energy consumption by 50%, and saves 27 liters of water per item, according to Quartz.
Other companies have been quick to jump on the trend. In October, the retailer Everlane released its ReNew outerwear collection, which will be produced from 3 million recycled plastic bottles. That still leaves a lot of clothing production opportunities sitting in dumpsters right now — start designing.

The rapid growth of wind turbines in terms of turbine size, number of installations and rated capacity has a huge impact on its operations and maintenance costs. Monitoring the performance of wind turbines and early fault prediction is highly desirable. To date, traditional maintenance strategies such as reactive maintenance, periodic maintenance etc. are more prevalent in wind industry. However, over the last couple of years, the research pertaining to wind turbine has been shifted towards the condition monitoring and maintenance.
Condition monitoring approaches have shown their potential in wind industry by providing continuous monitoring of the wind turbines, and identifying fault signatures in the event of faults. However, most of the studies reported in literature are based on the simulated dataset, or in constrained experiments. In reality, the external environment plays an important role in governing the turbine operations. Moreover, the cost associated with condition monitoring cannot be justified as it often requires installations of specific sensors, equipment. Another stream of research focuses on utilizing historical turbine data for turbine performance assessment in real time. The cost associated with such approaches is almost negligible as most of the wind farms are equipped with SCADA systems which records turbine performance data in regular time-interval. Such approaches are called as performance monitoring.
In this dissertation, the performance monitoring of wind turbines is accomplished using the historical wind turbine data. The information from SCADA operational data, and fault logs is used to construct accurate models predicting the critical wind turbine faults. Depending upon the nature of turbine faults, monitoring wind turbines with different objectives is studied to accomplish different research goals.
Two research directions of wind turbines performance are pursued, (1) identification and prediction of critical turbine faults, and (2) monitoring the performance of overall wind farm. The goal of predicting critical faults is to facilitate planned maintenance, whereas, monitoring the performance of overall wind farm provides the status-quo of all wind turbines installed in a wind farm. Depending on the requirement, the performance of overall wind farm can be assessed on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Solution methodologies presented in the dissertation are generic enough to be applicable to other industries such as wastewater treatment facilities, flood prediction, etc.

New Wiring Adds Risk When Replacing Pacemaker
Complications most likely when new lead is needed in heart devices, researchers find
SUNDAY, Nov. 15, 2009 (HealthDay News) -- Replacing or adding wiring increases the risk of major complications for patients having surgery to replace a pacemaker or other heart rhythm-stabilizing device, a new study finds.
U.S. researchers analyzed complication rates among patients enrolled in the REPLACE prospective multicenter registry who underwent replacement of a pacemaker, implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), or cardiac resynchronization (CRT) generator. One group of patients required no new wiring while the other group did.
Major complications occurred in 15.3 percent of the 713 patients who needed wiring. The highest rate of major complications occurred in patients whose replacement procedure required a lead to connect a CRT generator to the left ventricle. Minor complications occurred in 7.6 percent of the wiring patients, said the University of Washington, Seattle researchers.
The average age of the patients needing wiring was 69.5 years at the time of enrollment. Of that group, 75.9 percent were male, 40.1 percent had previously suffered a heart attack, 30.4 percent had diabetes, and 55.7 percent had serious congestive heart failure.
The study was to be presented Sunday at the American Heart Association's meeting in Orlando, Fla.
The Heart Rhythm Society has more about treatments for heart rhythm disorders.

Written by the Winners, Wrestlemania Edition – “Wrestlemania Rewind Episode 1”
(Today is my 18th wedding anniversary, so I don’t really have time to review anything new. However, since today is ALSO the 9th anniversary of the WWE Network, here’s my review of the first show ever broadcast on it, Wrestlemania Rewind about the first Wrestlemania! Originally written for Inside the Ropes Magazine back in March 2021 and published there.).
Hey, it’s Wrestlemania season, so let’s look at an early WWE Network documentary series about the Grandest Daddy of all Stages, although I somehow doubt they can add much more to the story than they’ve gone over a million times before. But they do love to celebrate themselves.
So the idea here is that WWE takes a famous Wrestlemania main event and does a whole history of the match and buildup to it, and then shows the complete match to fill the rest of the hour. Fair enough. The first selection is of course Hulk Hogan & Mr. T v. Rowdy Roddy Piper & Paul Orndorff from the first Wrestlemania.
Of course we get the requisite talking heads putting over how Wrestlemania is “the World Cup, World Series and Super Bowl” all rolled into one! Otherwise I wouldn’t have known.
Back to 1985 we go, as Mean Gene explains to us the “unwritten rules” of promoters having territories, which were then shattered by cable TV. OK, not to be pedantic about this, but the rules actually WERE written. That was the entire point of the National Wrestling Alliance, which the WWF was supposedly a part of for a long time, as they had actual defined territories for the member groups. Anyway, Vince McMahon saw Hulk Hogan in Rocky III and decided he was going to be the biggest star in the world for the WWF. That’s some amazing scouting there. Really took a huge risk on that one. Pat Patterson admits that Vince took a lot of heat from the other promoters for stealing their stars, but WWF was innovating stuff like “closed circuit”, which was absolutely not done by any other wrestling promotion beforehand.
Next up, innovating the first ever wrestling supercard, Wrestlemania, which was also a concept never done by any other wrestling promotion beforehand. And also they add a story about how wrestlers were “nervous” about working the show because they didn’t want to get blackballed by the promotions they left. And they also add in the story about how Vince was gambling his entire company and future on the show if it didn’t sell out, which has since been debunked many times over. I mean, it’s a good story, but Vince failed bigger before and came back from it.
This leads to the introduction of Cyndi Lauper and her involvement with the Rock N Wrestling Connection, and from there Rowdy Roddy Piper. There’s actually a clip of him on Tuesday Night Titans with an amazing quote: “They say you aren’t supposed to blow your own horn. Well, who better knows the tune?” They should just do an hour of Piper quotes from the shows on Network instead of this. So after Piper attacks Lauper and Captain Lou Albano, the media was all abuzz and celebrities were lining up to join the show as tickets sold at a record pace! But also the show was potentially going to flop until the last minute and Vince could lose his fortune, don’t forget. Man, they can’t even keep their narrative straight from one segment to another.
This all leads up to the signing of the main event, with Roddy Piper and Paul Orndorff facing Hulk Hogan and Mr. T. Poor Orndorff doesn’t even get mentioned in the buildup portion here, basically just existing as a guy involved in the match while they put over Muhammad Ali as the special referee instead. No wonder he was so bitter at Hulk Hogan and turned on him later. Anyway, Hulk talks about “building the story slowly” at the War to Settle the Score, which was a month before Wrestlemania. They also don’t really explain how Mr. T got involved in the match from a storyline perspective, instead just kind of saying “Mr. T was a big star and teamed with Hogan because reasons”. Hulk talks about how the wrestlers backstage all resented Mr. T and he wanted to make sure T didn’t get beat up and run off by them, which is of course complete nonsense aside from Dr. D causing trouble once.
And with all that out of the way, we spend the other 35 minutes of the show watching the main event match, followed by Hogan returning to add his comments about how great everything turned out.
So as a “documentary” piece, this was all over the place. It didn’t add any insight into the show or the match itself that we haven’t heard a million times before on other “documentaries”. It did a pretty lousy job of explaining the motivations and buildup to the main event match and why it came about (basically amounting to “Roddy Piper hates rock n roll and also Mr. T was there”) and didn’t go into any particular detail on what actually ended up making the first Wrestlemania into a success. Plus they lied about a bunch of stuff on top of it.

Amber Rose and her new boo, rapper 21 Savage, are some seriously big spenders. The new (or maybe not so new) couple recently hit the strip club together and spent tens of thousands of dollars over the course of the night.
TMZ reports that Amber and Savage paid a visit to Atlanta's Club Crucial on Monday night to promote Savage's upcoming release, Issa Album. While on stage, the couple reportedly began throwing cash into the crowd, parting with $22,000. It's apparently a Monday night tradition at the club. No, seriously — there's video proof and everything. Check it out below.
Things are getting pretty serious between these two; they go heavy on the Instagram PDA and are already in the 'meet the family' stage of their relationship. Rose even went with Savage to visit his grandma recently. Take a look below.

Swine Production: List of Pig Farming Equipment
It is essential having the right equipment for pig production. The equipment are basic and easy to source in the local market. Some are locally fabricated based on the need of the farmer.
The equipment is for feeding, water, vet services, handling, weighing and housing. Here is a list of things you need to start a successful pig farm.
Read also: Processing cassava for pig feed
Pig Farming Equipment
- Pig farrowing crate
- Pig ventilation, cooler
- Piglet heating equipment
- Disposable boots
- Farrowing crate
- Medical equipment
There are two ways to farm swine either free range or housed. You can build a wooden pen, metal or block pen. The pen could be outdoors or indoors depending on the geographical area and weather conditions.
The pen needs a shelter roof and height should not exceed 5 ft. Free range pigs require a sturdy perimeter fence. You can electrify the fence to prevent escape or predators getting into the enclosure. You need a power washer to remove dirt or manure from the facility.
Types of Pen
To effectively provide medical or management of the pig you need a pig snare. The snare helps restrain the animal for a procedure.
To temporary mark and identify the pigs use livestock marking crayon. This is important during medical procedure or when administering vaccines.
The amount and quality of feed would determine the growth rate of the swine. You need to provide a feeding area and mechanisms for eating. The mechanisms could be automated or manual depending on the pen construction.
The automatic cylinder feeder should have a regulating system and base plate. Regulate the feeding time and speed control of the device. You need feeding pans, troughs and feeders.
Other equipment is feed scale to measure exact portion fed to the animal and a feed scoop. The function of a feed scope is to move feed from the bag to a feeder unit or bucket. Use a bucket to carry water or feed to the animals. A good steel or aluminium bucket with a handle will surface.
Pig Feeding Equipment
- Automated or manual feeder
- speed control device
- feeding pans
- Troughs and feeders
- measuring scale
- feed scoop
- Aluminium bucket
- Heating Unit
Farmers interested in farrowing sows need a heating unit for the young pigs. You should provide a supplementary source of heat for the piglets. Provide adequate sleeping area for them and introduce the heater lamps or bulbs. Adequate heating helps resist diseases and reduces heat waste.
Disposable Boots and Boot Dip
There are lots of diseases that affect swine which are caused by bacteria, virus or parasites. The farmer and visitors to the facility should wear disposable plastic boots as a bio security measure. This measure prevents dangerous microbes that attach to the sole of their shoe or sandals.
Alternately place a dip boot with appropriate disinfectant for visitor to insert their shoes before entering the farm. The farmer also needs to maintain this protocol anytime he enters the farm.
Use disinfectants between stocking to keep bacteria loads at a minimum. The boots and cloths should be limited only to farm use.
The comfort of the animal is paramount therefore provide appropriate bedding. Provide straw, hay, shredded paper work well and sawdust. Use plastic manure dropping boards to manage the pen feces.

Types of Pig Bedding
- Shredded paper work well
To prevent accident like the sow lying on the piglets use a farrowing crate. Sows are rather massive and are sometimes a danger to their young. You could construct one from wood or buy a readymade metal crate.
Medical Pig Farming Equipment
There is much pig farming equipment used for treatment, grooming or medical procedures. Common equipment is pliers, dressing, scalpel handles, blades and syringes. To prevent a condition known as boar taint in puberty the males pig is castrated with the scalpel.
Most boar piglets are castrated 1 week of age. You need side-cutting pliers to blunt the tips of their teeth. The reason is to prevent damage during scratches, cuts and bruises during fights between piglets.
Introduce ear notching pliers to cut notches on piglets for easy identification. The syringe is an essential tool in administering vaccinations or injections. Use multiple dose syringes or disposable injections.
The syringe capacity range from 10cc to 50 cc and needle size depends on size of the animal. You need wound dressing to prevent infection in wounds or during a medical procedure. Provide good storage area for medication like shelves and refrigeration for vaccines.
- Scalpel handles
- Side-cutting pliers
- Ear notching pliers
- Multiple dose syringes
- Disposable injections
- wound dressing
- Medicine shelves
- Refrigeration for vaccines
A wheelbarrow is a useful tool to move feed, bedding and clear manure. You need pitchfork, scoop shovel to move hay, manure or to clean the pen.
an important pig farming equipment is the installation of a nipple dispensing system or provide water manually. There are also automatic systems to provide adequate water throughout the day. Pigs require lots of clean drinking water.
1 week old piglets require 250 g water per kg weight, fattening pigs 12 L water, pregnant sows 17L water per night. You can introduce a corrosion resistant duck billed pig drinker. Make sure you have a polypropylene (piglets) or stainless steel watering bowl for the adults.
Mature pigs are huge, heavy animals and require proper handling equipment. You need a loading area to transport or load them on a truck. The loading area should have sliding gate adjustable to floor area. Invest in hand held hurdle of 6 x 30 inch plywood to herd pigs.

text: Drawing from historical and private collections around the country, Samella Lewis has gathered an impressive representation of the work of African American artists, from the 18th century to the present. For this edition she has provided a new chapter on art of the last decade. Handsomely and generously illustrated, this book reveals a rich legacy of work by African American painters, sculptors, and graphic artists. "Art historical scholarship is greatly advanced by Samella Lewis'sAfrican American Art and Artistsin that it foregrounds the work of artists who have been influencing the texture of art in the United States during the last two decades of the 20th century. ThroughoutAfrican American Art and Artists, Lewis interrogates the issue of identity by presenting the biographical sketch, which locates the individual artistic personality within a specific cultural background with its own peculiar dynamics, giving a face to two cities of Black American art. Without polemics Lewis presents women artists--Edmonia Lewis to Allison Saar--as principal players in constructing an African American visual arts legacy. Here Lewis sufficiently defines the visual arts in order that they may assume their rightful place alongside African American music, literature and folklore as cultural expressions that have helped to give American culture its distinct character."--from the foreword by Floyd Coleman, Harvard University.Lewis, Samella S. is the author of 'African American Art and Artists', published 1994 under ISBN 9780520085329 and ISBN 0520085329.

The physical toll on officers who defended the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 attack by a pro-Trump mob is becoming clearer, with reports by police officials and federal prosecutors indicating that about 140 officers were injured, the head of Capitol Police officers’ union said Wednesday.
“I have officers who were not issued helmets prior to the attack who have sustained head injuries,” Gus Papathanasiou, union chairman, said in a statement Wednesday. “One officer has two cracked ribs and two smashed spinal discs and another was stabbed with a metal fence stake, to name some of the injuries.”
Capitol Police Officer Brian D. Sicknick died after trying to defend the Capitol from rioters. One Capitol Police officer and one D.C. police officer have died by suicide since the attack.
And since Jan. 6, 38 Capitol Police employees have tested positive for the coronavirus, almost entirely officers and supervisors who responded to the riot, Papathanasiou said.
At least 81 Capitol Police officers were assaulted during the siege of the Capitol, according to filings by federal prosecutors. The filings did not detail injuries sustained by officers and a Capitol Police spokeswoman did not respond to a request for comment on officer injuries.
About 65 officers from the D.C. police also suffered injuries on Jan. 6, including several concussions from head blows from various objects, including metal poles ripped from inauguration-related scaffolding and even a pole with an American flag attached, D.C. police officials have said. Other injuries included swollen ankles and wrists, bruised arms and legs, and irritated lungs from bear and pepper spray.
Reports say officers were pushed downstairs, trampled by rioters, punched and run over in a stampede. One D.C. police officer who was at the riot took his own life in the aftermath of Jan. 6. “I’ve talked to officers who have done two tours in Iraq, who said this was scarier to them than their time in combat,” acting D.C. police chief Robert J. Contee III said at a news conference earlier this month.
Papathanasiou said the admission from acting Capitol Police chief Yogananda Pittman that the department had advance warning of the “strong potential for violence” Jan. 6, including the possible use of firearms, was “unconscionable. The fact they did not relay this information to the officers on duty prior to the insurrection is inexcusable.”
The union head also contested Pittman’s claim that she ordered a lockdown of the Capitol. “To be clear, it was actually Inspector [Thomas] Lloyd who initially ordered the Capitol lockdown approximately one hour prior to Chief Pittman’s order,” said Papathanasiou. “That was the only time that day I heard Pittman on the radio.”
“The officers are angry, and I don’t blame them. The entire executive team failed us, and they must be held accountable,” he said. “Their inaction cost one officer his life, and we have almost 140 responding officers injured. They have a lot to atone for.”
A spokeswoman for the Capitol Police also did not respond to requests for information on officer coronavirus diagnoses.

Just days ago, Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich vowed to tell his side of the story. Today, a defiant governor stepped up to a microphone and vowed to fight the corruption charges against him.
"I am not guilty of any criminal wrongdoing," Blagojevich said at a news conference in Chicago.
Federal prosecutors accuse the governor of trying to sell President-elect Barack Obama's now vacant Senate seat.
"I will fight until I take my last breath," he said.
The governor said he was "not going to quit the job the people have hired me to do."
"I am dying to answer these charges. I am dying to show you how innocent I am," the governor said. "I intend to answer every allegation that comes my way. However, I intend to answer them in the appropriate forum," he added.
"I have on my side the most powerful ally there is, and it's the truth. And besides, I have the personal knowledge that I have not done anything wrong," said Blagojevich.
He took no questions from reporters.
One of Blagojevich's attorneys, Sam Adam Jr., told reporters after the governor spoke that the U.S. attorney's office hasn't given them the tapes mentioned in the criminal complaint filed 10 days ago - the day Blagojevich was arrested.
On the tapes are phone calls involving the governor's alleged efforts to sell the Senate seat.
"It is conduct that would make Lincoln roll over in his grave," said U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald last week when announcing the charges against Blagoveich.
Do you think the governor is innocent?
Is he the victim of a "political lynch mob" as he suggested today?

Future is bright for Ross Sutherland’s young squad
Easier access to your trusted, local news. Subscribe to a digital package and support local news publishing.
Ross Sutherland Rugby Club chairman John Scott believes there were enough signs over the 2021/22 season to be optimistic that the future is bright.
The Invergordon outfit ended up fourth in Caledonia North Two, right in the middle of the seven-team division – not in title contention but well clear of a repeat of 2019/20’s relegation battle.
In that sense, progress has been made at the Naval Grounds, but there was also a sense that they could have been closer to the top.
With Aberdeenshire winning promotion coupling with an extra year of development for Ross Sutherland’s youngsters, then, Scott is looking forward to what is in store next season.
“It was an interesting year,” he reasoned.
“We played some excellent rugby throughout the season in the senior team.
“In parts, we were really, really good. We struggled a little bit with availability at times due to injuries and a nervousness post-Covid.
“That’s fair enough – some guys couldn’t always be there because of work commitments.
“I think a mid-table finish, post-Covid and with the age of squad we had, was quite exceptional and probably a fair reflection.
“Hand on heart, we were capable of finishing in the top three, so I’m a little bit disappointed we didn’t get that, but we have to be content with where we are.
“The availability of players and coaches was a struggle at times because of Covid and work commitments.
“The one big thing for us though has been the unearthing of new talent and new players coming to the club. We had under-18s before Covid who are now 20-year-olds coming through into the squad and really making their mark.
“If we had everybody available, we could probably have a squad where eight to 10 of our under-18s two years ago start for the first 15. That’s exciting for the future.”

My name is Natasha and I would like to thank you so much for visiting my page. Here you will find delicious, quick, and healthy recipes that I have created over the years for my family to share with you.
Some of us like art, fine wines, travelling, and antiques. I appreciate and enjoy all of those things but at the root of it all my passion lives with FOOD and so recipe creating and writing became my exciting hobby that I fell into while raising my two absolutely amazing daughters and working from home as the Business Administrator for my husband's business.
My story line before that is simple. I am the only child from a traditional Italian family where the roots of my European cooking style began.
Before my husband and I got married I spent some time considering culinary school however I decided to go to business school and graduated with a Business Administration Diploma.
My interest, desire and passion for cooking never ceased and so with any additional time I had in between my busy work schedule I would study food preparation, recipes and many culinary techniques.
Once we settled into married life and had our first daughter an entire new culinary journey began. My household became busier like most and so my goal each and every day was to create delicious, simple and quick recipes without the fuss and complication because after all, I like to simplify the complicated.
I welcome you to join me on this journey as I continue to create and share recipes from our kitchen table to yours.

After coming close to the 'Calendar Grand Slam' last year, Novak Djokovic had to deal with some difficult moments. 2022 did not start in the best way for the Serbian phenomenon, which paid a very high price for its choice not to get vaccinated against the Coronavirus. The world number 1 was unable to defend his title at the Australian Open, as well as suffering serious damage to his image. As if that weren't enough, the 34-year-old from Belgrade had to watch helplessly as his eternal rival Rafael Nadal triumphs at Melbourne Park. Nole made his season debut in Dubai, but his race stopped already in the quarterfinals at the hands of a wild Jiri Vesely. The 20-time Grand Slam champion then took part in the Masters 1000 in Monte Carlo and the ATP 250 in Belgrade, showing a physical condition far from 100%. The great goal of 'Djoker' is obviously Roland Garros, where he will be called to defend the title won in 2021. To the microphones of the Tennis Channel, former world number 1 in doubles Mark Knowles has analyzed in detail the latest performances of Novak.
Nole Djokovic will play the Mutua Madrid Open
"Well I think I'm a little surprised," Knowles said. "It's come out that Novak Djokovic mentioned that he's been battling illness, which kind of makes a little bit more sense, because obviously, we know that he's limited in matches, having been out for a long time, obviously he's dealt with a lot of off-court stress with figuring out when he can and can't play based on COVID protocols or so forth. I maybe wasn't as surprised in Monte-Carlo that he didn't have enough in the tank to withstand Davidovich Fokina. I just felt that maybe by Belgrade, couple more weeks, getting used to matches, even though he did have some tough matches as we know, throughout the week, I was just surprised to see him go away physically in that third set." It’s always exciting to get the news about a potential match between Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. However, before that, Nadal could face the fiery teenager, Alcaraz, in the quarterfinal. Previously, both of them faced each other at the Indian Wells semi-final. Nadal got the win by a narrow margin. Meanwhile, Djokovic never faced the young Spaniard, as he’s looking to get his form back before the French Open. Right now, in men’s tennis, world no.9 Carlos Alcaraz is the most in-form player who could hurt the top players with his aggressive playing style.

A power MOSFET with the industry's lowest on-resistance for a 60-V device in a package with double-sided cooling was released today by Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. The new SiE876DF, which comes in an SO-8 sized PolarPAK® package, boasts maximum on-resistance of 6.1 milliohms at a 10-V gate drive, a 13 % improvement over the next best comparable device on the market.
The n-channel SiE876DF is targeted at industrial-type power supplies, motor control circuits, AC/DC power supplies for servers and routers, and systems using point-of-load (POL) power conversion. It will also be used as a primary side switch or for secondary side rectification in higher voltage intermediate bus conversion (IBC) designs.
In each of these applications, the low on-resistance of the SiE876DF will translate into lower conduction losses and thus save on energy. In addition to the low conduction losses provided by its TrenchFET® silicon, the double-sided cooling provided by the PolarPAK package enables better thermal performance for high-current applications. This allows for operation with a lower junction temperature. The PolarPAK's leadframe-based, encapsulated design also offers increased protection and reliability, in addition to simplifying manufacturing, since the die is not exposed. The device offers the same layout as other PolarPAK devices with a drain-source voltage rating under 150 V, thus simplifying PCB design. The SiE876DF is also 100 % Rg- and UIS-tested.Samples and production quantities of the SiE876DF 60-V are available now, with lead times of 10 to 12 weeks for larger orders. Pricing in 100,000-piece quantities for U.S. delivery starts at $0.96.


Derek Moulton (Fellow and Tutor in Mathematics) has published a study that explains how the interlocking shells of bivalve shells are created.
A striking feature of bivalved seashells is that the two valves fit together perfectly when closed. The two sides meet with no gaps or overlaps, despite the fact that each valve may present ornamental patterns of varying regularity and size; and they continue to interlock throughout the shell’s development, even when the shell edge becomes irregular because of injury or other environmental influences.
The study by Derek Moulton and his team, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, explains that this feature – seen in the shells of brachiopods and of bivalve molluscs, such as clams, mussels, oysters and scallops, which derive from a common ancestor – provides a protective role against predators and environmental events. But although this functional advantage is understood, it has not been known how the interlocking feature is formed. By creating a mathematical model of shell growth, the team have been able to explain how geometry and mechanical forces combine to generate the shells and to provide insight into the biophysical processes involved.

An Informative Note of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the Failed Coup Attempt:
Statement on the Coup Attempt , 17.07.2016
On the evening of July 15th, a faction of the Turkish Armed Forces attempted to stage a coup in various cities of Turkey, particularly in Ankara and İstanbul.
It was understood in a short time that this was more than a treacherous plot: It was a terrorist campaign. The perpetrators fired at their own people, stabbed their commanders in the back and bombed the National Parliament and the Office of the Presidency.
From the very beginning, the command chain and vast majority of the Turkish Armed Forces stood up against the coup attempt. It was merely some elements of the Air Forces, Gendarmerie and armored units that joined the violent conspiracy. Both the police and public prosecutors immediately took necessary measures to foil the attempt.
Above all, it was the Turkish nation who thwarted the plot. They displayed a historic solidarity as they took to the streets and remained defiant. They stood bravely in front of the tanks and reclaimed their democratic rights.
The terrorists tried to broadcast their message by taking over studios of the state TV (TRT) and raiding private media outlets. Yet the plotters’ attempt to control media did not last long. It must be noted that the Turkish media also played a key role in subsiding the coup attempt.
Throughout the process, all the political parties and Members of the Turkish Grand National Assembly stood firmly by democracy, democratic politics, democratic institutions and the Constitution. A Joint Declaration in defense of democracy was issued during the extraordinary meeting of the General Assembly on the 16th of July.
During the operations held against the terrorist group, more than 6000 have been detained so far and more than 100 coup plotters were captured dead. The operations continue.
Unfortunately, more than 190 of our citizens were left dead and more than 1400 wounded.
A group of eight involved in the coup attempt fled to Greece onboard a helicopter that they stole. Necessary steps have been taken for the return of the suspects and the helicopter.
This coup attempt was staged in no uncertain terms by the Fethullah Gülen Terrorist Organization (FETÖ). Our Government has been constantly exposing the real motives of this terrorist group and its leader, Fethullah Gülen, to all allies and partners. The foiled coup is the latest criminal act revealing the danger posed by FETÖ.
Our President, Prime Minister, Government, Members of Turkish Grand National Assembly and the Turkish people all together defeated this coup attempt and stood by democracy and rule of law.
The terrorists will be punished in accordance with the law.

A permanent resident of Paphos, who wants to remain anonymous has donated €10,000 to Paphos municipality to help those in need.
The gift was made in the form of vouchers which will be allocated to residents facing tough times, ‘especially during these difficult days in our society,” said an announcement from the municipality.
Residents of Paphos who are experiencing problems due to the coronavirus pandemic and also in view of the Easter holidays will be helped, it said.
“Our European compatriot contacted the Mayor of Paphos, Phedonas Phedonos, by telephone to tell him of his decision and asked that his name not be made public.”
The mayor warmly congratulated the donor for his kind gesture, which, he said, is an act of practical solidarity and genuine altruism, and also an additional proof of his sincere love for Paphos and its residents.

Falls among the elderly are prevalent, dangerous, and can diminish their ability to lead an active and independent life. About one in three seniors above age 65, and nearly one in two seniors over age 80, will fall at least once this year, many times with disastrous consequences. Physical therapists can help prevent falls with evaluation and development of individualized treatment plans including exercises to improve strength, mobility, and balance.
Risk factors associated with falls:
- Conditions associated with aging
- Muscle weakness
- Difficulty with balance or walking
- Vision problems
- Pre-existing medical conditions that limit mobility, such as Parkinson disease, stroke, or diabetes
- Conditions that cause confusion (dementia, Alzheimer’s, etc…)
- Being on more than four medications at the same time
- Use of an assistive walking device
- Environmental hazards (e.g., throw rugs, pets)
- Difficulty completing activities of daily living
- Low blood pressure
Maintaining Physical Activity
Maintaining physical activity is critical in helping to prevent falls. Physical therapists recommend
activities of any fitness level, including gardening, line dancing, and yoga to help improve balance
Test Your Balance
Balance may be improved with exercises that strengthen the ankle, knee, and hip muscles and
with exercises that improve the function of the vestibular (balance) system. A simple assessment
of your current balance can be done at home.
Do not attempt to do this test alone—make sure that you have someone next to you to
decrease the potential risk of falling.
Perform this test standing with a counter surface in front of you:
- Stand tall, wearing flat, closed shoes, with your arms folded across your chest. Keep your eyes open, focus on an object in front of you, raise one leg, bending the knee about 45 degrees, and start a stopwatch.
- Remain on one leg, stopping the watch immediately if you uncross your arms, tilt sideways more than 45 degrees, move the leg you are standing on, or touch the raised leg to the floor.
- Repeat this test with the other leg.
- Compare your performance to normal results for various ages:
– 20 to 59 years old (28 to 29 seconds)
– 60 to 69 years (27 seconds)
– 70 to 79 years (15 seconds)
– 80 and older (6 seconds)
How a Physical Therapist Can Help
Once a physical therapist has reviewed your medical history and completed a thorough
examination, he or she will design an individualized program of exercises and functional activities
for you. This program may focus on strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, and walking.
If necessary, the physical therapist will refer you to other medical professionals, such as an
ophthalmologist or neurologist.

Star of 2002 predicts share bounce
STAR manager Mark Hall, the top performing UK stock-picker of 2002, is banking on a short-term bounce in financial stocks HBOS and Royal Bank of Scotland and drugs giant GlaxoSmithKline. But he warns any rally will be short-lived and instead has built a treasure chest of other shares to deliver steadier returns over the next three or four years.
Hall's BWD Aggressive Growth fund was one of only two UK-focused funds to make money last year, with a 6.3% return, according to the Investment Management Association.
Most of the fund, around two-thirds, is invested in stocks with promising long-term stories. But the remainder is gambled on larger stocks. Hall believes that any sign of resolution over Iraq will send FTSE 100 stocks shooting up first. However, Hall warns that market confidence remains fragile. 'I can't remember a time of less conviction in the market,' he says.
Hall's long-term plays include AngloIrish bank, nursing home owner NHP, property firm CLS Holdings and Johnston Press.

Vietnam’s local PVC market dips to more than 3-month low
Weakness in economic conditions, limited demand and the downturn across global PVC markets were cited as factors that pulled the Vietnamese market further down. Plus, a major Taiwanese producer’s decision to cut its November PVC offers visibly to the Asian markets was followed by several other regional producers, reinforcing the bearish sentiment.
A Vietnamese converter reported that November PVC offers they received from a local producer decreased by VND400,000/ton ($18/ton) when compared to last month. “Although demand for our end-products slightly improved through the year-end, we still keep our purchases limited to our urgent needs,” he added.
A compounder said, “Demand towards our end products has somewhat slowed when compared to last year. However, this is a general case for the market due to Vietnam’s weak economic performance. We are not planning to make any purchases from the local market despite attractive prices as we have previously covered some stocks from the import market.”
Another converter commented, “We are only purchasing based on our needs as we think prices have still room for further decreases.”

I can live each moment as it comes. I can live only in today. Today is all I have.
“Try to work out which is your habitual response to change which you see as dangerous, so that as you dare to explore you don’t suddenly find yourself running away to the safety of old ways, or resisting the new ideas with old prejudices.( 3)
CLARIFICATION OF THOUGHT
I find that when I am depressed I find all the comfort in the predictable and the familiar. Right now, I am in battle for my life and I am going to stay and work things out. My feelings are agitated and make me feel very uncomfortable, but I know that it is only by feeling them and accepting them (not run away) that I will, and can in time, begin to taste the freedom of a new me beginning to be born. I believe that by desiring change, this desire will produce a greater motivation in my self to think and feel differently.
This is an important concept when I am depressed. I desire the safety of the familiar and the predictable.
God, help me to live in the peace and the serenity of the present moment. And let us be aware of the moment when we begin to depress ourselves. Alert us to the moment that we can CHOOSE to turn our minds to something more constructive.
SOURCE: Higher Thoughts for down days(c). (March 17).
Dr. Rowe in her book WHAT SHOULD I BELIEVE, asked her client Julie this question:
“Suppose you were faced with a situation where you could act only in one of two ways. If you acted one way people would like you, but you wouldn’t respect yourself, and if you acted the way people wouldn’t like you but you would respect yourself. If you were faced with that, which would you choose, respecting yourself or other people liking you?”
Julie answered immediately, “Respecting myself. That’s one of my standards. I realized that at university. One thing about depression, it does make you independent because you don’t care about popularity. You must function without other people anyway, so it doesn’t really matter about other people. I suppose you just live like an observer, observing people, the way they live, and just get a bit cynical. I am very scornful of people who do things just to be popular. I analyze myself and other people constantly, and “honesty and integrity” is the byword. ….” Page 203-204.
Hugh’s comment follows
Julie makes an interesting statement where she says that “depression, it does make you independent.” That statement, like the one in the above paragraph made me stop and reflect on my own experience with depression. Did the experience, painful and immobilizing as it happened to be, did it make me more independent? In some ways I think it did. Like, I was more sure of myself as I learned more about my character and how some areas of my negative thinking and behavior were the cause of the spiraling downward of my person into the dark pit of depression. First of all, I became more aware of my thinking processes and nailed the times that I was beating myself up or not watching the way I ate and the fact of my great need of exercise which I was neglecting. No matter what, I now am embarked on a healthier lifestyle and am convinced that the Twelve Steps continually help me assess my strengths and defects of character. Yes, Julie is right. I am more independent. Now, instead of going about my life in a mindless fashion I am mindful of what prevents me from being in the present moment. I now try to center myself, by my daily prayer and meditation times. All this is critical to my staying sane and serene. What do you think?

Binghamton, NY (WBNG Binghamton) The Greenman Senior Center has been vacant for two years. After failed attempts, Binghamton City Council said Monday they're ready to sell the building to the best bidder.
Three entities presented their ideas for the former senior center at 37 Pine St., during the council's work session.
"Whomever we decide to sell the building to, how much will that revitalize the neighborhood?" said Binghamton City Councilman Bill Berg. "Will it fit in? Will it be compatible with what the neighborhood has? Will it add to the downtown?"
Two of the bidders were out of town and called in.
The first to present was Angela Testani from California. She placed a bid of $138,500 to buy the building and lease it out to Opportunities for Broome. Testani and OFB want to use the space to start a program that trains people who are unemployed in the restaurant and food service industry. Testani says the Greenman Center is perfect for her plan because of the large kitchen.
OFB has bid on the building and failed four times.
The second and highest bid at $152,000 was submitted by Keith and Theresa Bovier. The couple wants to transform the building into a hub for prospective business and their own two businesses: A catering company and a coffee roasting company. They say they would like to hold events, like weddings, in the future.
"We really enjoy the building, it's something that kind of encompasses both my dreams and her dreams as well, and together I think it would just be a lot of fun to make that into a community place, a place that's really thriving," said Keith Bovier.
Lastly, was Jon Layish, who bid $140,000. Layish wants to use the building to house the Red Barn Technology Group. He said the business would use the space as its headquarters and offices, and potentially some retail space.
A major expense that remains is fixing the H-VAC system, which played a prominent role in why the center shut down in the first place.
The city engineer estimated it would cost between $100,000 and $150,000 to fix.
The Board of Estimates and Apportionment will meet on Wednesday to discuss the three bids.
City Council is hopeful they will accept a bid Wednesday night.
