Is it possible to change my Philips DSX 6170/68A DVB to a free to air or other CI i.e Viacess?
Presently my receiver has a cyprtoworks system. I want to know
if it can be change to Free to Air or other CI.
All receivers can receive FTA transmissions. They are simply the unencrypted signals.
Some receivers can additionally receive encrypted transmissions, and decrypt them using various kinds of Conditional Access Modules (CAMs)
Receivers which have only "embedded" CAMs are the least flexible. These include the Sky digiboxes, which have embedded Videouard CAMs. They will not accept any other kind of decryption module, and the embedded CAM can not be re-coded in any way (it is hardware-constrained).
But some receivers have slots for the so-called Common Interface CAMs (CI CAMs). A CI-CAM is interchangeable. If your receiver is a CI-type and has a removable Cryptoworks CAM then you can simply replace that CAM with a different kind of CI CAM (eg Seca, Irdeto, Nagravision, Viaccess,...). That's why they call it a Common Interface CAM.

Priced at an average €500
Style is romantic and edgy
Claire Tagg has got to be one of the most promising designers we have seen. We attended London Fashion Week and spotted her at the Fashion Scout Runway - and we were blown away. Her designs are inspired by her previous life as an airhostess and that can be depicted in the abstract prints and use of buckles. The cuts are absolutely gorgeous and so flattering that trust us, you should definitely get your hands on one before its too late!
" My designs combine both destruction with glamour. Primarily print based with rich textures and elaborate embellishment. My graduate collection was based on the concept of my journey as an air hostess. I created a series of illustrations to show how I once perceived myself as an air stewardess, looking elegant whilst wearing my airline uniform with pride. The illustrations are combined with destructive textures to represent how my dream got torn apart when I experienced the harsh reality of this difficult job. The cut of my collection explores the airline uniform that I once admired, inspired by structured airline jackets which are combined with softer fabrics. The garments are heavily embellished to show elements of glamour contrasted against ripped/worn textures. My style of designing shows a preference to craft, all my prints are hand dawn/painted and are hand stitched with ornate decoration. My graduate collection attracts a lot of attention for its unusual elements such as my creative use of airline seat belts however I am aware that my designs need to become more wearable. Moving forward I will continue to create beautiful one off pieces which look like works of art rather than wearable garments and combine them with designs which are wearable but just as glamorous.

With an epidemic of Alzheimer's disease lying in wait, some researchers are calling for a new era of prevention research—research in which people with a particular genetic fate would be vital participants. Adrian Burton reports.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects one in ten people over 65 years of age and about half of people over 85. With people living longer than ever, the number of patients with AD could double every 20 years, potentially leading to a financially overwhelming epidemic. Against this backdrop, some researchers are calling for a fundamental change in the way AD preventive treatment trials are done and in the evidence that bodies such as the US Food and Drug Administration should accept before licensing treatments. But who would have thought that much of this change would depend on a few people living in a remote part of South America?
“Now is the time to launch the era of Alzheimer's prevention research”, says Eric Reiman (Banner Alzheimer's Institute [BAI], Phoenix, AZ, USA), a leading voice in the call for change under the flag of the Alzheimer's Prevention Initiative
. “Currently, it takes too many cognitively normal people, too much money, and too much time—longer than the life of a drug product's patent—to evaluate presymptomatic AD treatments in a randomised trial using clinical endpoints. We need to establish the means to evaluate a range of promising presymptomatic treatments using AD biomarkers that are reasonably likely to predict a clinical benefit [if we are to] find a treatment that works as quickly as possible, [and create] an accelerated regulatory approval pathway.”
AD trials have suffered from serious problems. Most have involved people who are close to developing or already showing the first signs of the disease—when it might be too late for a treatment to have much effect—and those involving clearly presymptomatic people have been encumbered by the numbers of participants required (only one in ten people might naturally develop AD by 65 years of age). Furthermore, regulatory bodies require that clinical benefit be shown before a treatment is approved, meaning that preventive trials in presymptomatic people would need to run for years, incurring huge financial burdens.
Reiman and his colleagues at the BAI suggest something quite different should be done: that promising treatments should be tested in presymptomatic trials lasting just 2 years in groups of people who are very likely to develop AD, that a range of AD biomarkers be simultaneously followed over this period, and that the extent to which their movement predicts the clinical benefit a treatment might have be recorded.
But are there any such biomarkers? And do such people exist? “Right now, we have several potential biomarkers for tracking changes over time in AD”, explains Pierre Tariot, also of the BAI. “These include fluordeoxyglucose-PET (FDG-PET) measurements of the decline in cerebral glucose metabolism, MRI measurements of regional or whole brain shrinkage, recently developed PET methods for the assessment of amyloid plaque burden, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) measurements of amyloid β42, total tau and phosphotau levels, alone or in combination.”
And, sadly, people who have genetic defects that put them at much greater risk of developing AD do exist. About 2—3% of the population, carry two copies of the APOE ɛ4 allele and are 20 times more likely to develop AD in old age. Putting together a registry of APOE ɛ4 homozygous people would provide one—albeit geographically spread out—population in which to undertake these new trials.
Further, about 500 families worldwide are known to carry a dominant mutation of the presenilin-1 gene—the E280A PS1 allele—that almost certainly leads to early-onset AD in those who inherit it. The largest so-called extended family with this mutation lives in Antioquía in northwestern Colombia; all are thought to be the descendents of a single person. Those who carry the mutation develop AD at around 48 years of age. About 40% of the affected kindred live in or close to the city of Medellín, whereas the others live in mountain villages in what is even now a genetically isolated region. However, the misfortune of these people provides a relatively large, localised population in which the proposed trials could be done—and perhaps ultimately help them. 1235 present members of this kindred have now been genotyped and over 480 have been identified as carriers of the mutation; about 1000 carriers might eventually be identified. Trials in this population would involve people as young as 18—25 years of age.
Although doing trials that would require monitoring by neuroimaging or CSF collection from people living in a remote part of Colombia might not immediately seem feasible, Francisco Lopera
(University of Antioquía
), who discovered their plight in the early 1980s, allays concerns: “We are looking for options that promise the best possibilities of success. In Medellín we have good capacity to undertake functional magnetic resonance studies, and within 18 months we will have Pittsburgh compound B-PET and FDG-PET capabilities. We will select those patients who live close by for the imaging part of the study, but we could bring in residents who live further away if required. Some would have to stay overnight, but we can book them into hotels in Medellín if necessary.”
Lopera also explains that CSF samples could be collected in local health clinics, and that a network of family members armed with trial plans and mobile phones is already in place, liaising between participants and researchers to make sure everyone attends appointments and knows what is happening next. “[These families] have been participating for 15 years in studies with little hope”, says Lopera. “Seeing that [this project] offers the hope of a solution they will surely continue to be involved.”
However, even the most promising of potential AD drugs and anti-amyloid vaccines have failed to produce the desired results in more traditional trials. Could researchers honestly hope these drugs and vaccines would fare any better as presymptomatic treatments? “There is a growing concern that many of these treatments might be too little too late to have a profound effect by the time people have symptoms and extensive brain pathology”, explains Tariot. “If a treatment appears to have an anti-amyloid effect or another promising mechanism of action, and if it is sufficiently safe, it should be considered in presymptomatic trials whether or not it works in clinically affected patients.”
Certainly, deciding which of the two potential trial populations should receive which treatment raises some problems. “Although many of the treatments to try have already been shown safe in other populations, safety in the homozygous APOE ɛ4 group would not necessarily be the same as safety in the Colombian group”, warns Francisco Wandosell (CIBERNED-Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain). “For example, the difference in the age of these two experimental populations means their physiology is different, and certainly [the Colombian group] is still of reproductive age, so the researchers will have to take some care deciding which treatment each group can receive. Secondly, APOE ɛ4 is still only a risk factor, meaning that the number of homozygous people enrolled in a particular trial needs to be high enough to ensure an accurate statistical analysis.”
“These trials are an excellent idea and offer a singular opportunity, though they must obviously adhere to ethical regulations”, remarks Jesús Ávila, of the Centro de Biología Molecular Severo Ochoa (CSIC-Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain). “And unfortunately there might be a problem of keeping people involved in ever-changing trials. If a treatment were seen to be doing little in terms of the biomarkers followed, the researchers could drop it and start with another using the same participants. But staying involved would require much self-sacrifice on the part of these people. Another problem is that the authorities may not license a treatment based on biomarker evidence alone; they may still want clinical evidence. Convincing them might be tough—but what other hope do these homozygous carriers of APOE ɛ4 or E280A PS1 carriers have?”
Reiman concedes these challenges, and also recognises that any findings made in these groups of genetically at-risk people might not be generalisable to the larger population. However, the sense behind considering the first use of investigational treatments in people at the highest imminent risk of AD is hard to counter, and if regulatory agencies were to become convinced that the movement of one or more biomarkers predicted clinical benefit reasonably well, this might provide a way to test many candidate treatments and seek the accelerated approval of those that show promise. If predicted clinical benefits eventually became a reality, the benefit could be enormous.
“Initiatives such as this should be seen as an urgent priority”, remarks Facundo Manes (Favaloro University, Buenos Aires, Argentina). “We must urgently find a way to increase the speed with which we evaluate AD treatments or we will be engulfed by a wave of disease that is travelling much faster than our present trials system. If these proposed trials can be performed and help us find something that delays the onset of AD by even 5 years we could halve the number of people who at any one time have the disease. Imagine if we could delay it for longer, or even indefinitely. The debt the world would owe to these populations of tragically afflicted people would be incalculable.”


A leading electronics components manufacturer invests in high performance connectors after a period of high sales growth.
The CMM series micro connectors from Nicomatic are the connectors in question. They are typically used in the defence and aerospace fields.
Nicomatic, a manufacturer and designer of innovative interconnect solutions, has announced their decision to invest over one million Euros into new moulding and new CNC machines.
“Our connectors are sold in a 2mm pitch and allow over 15 million standard arrangements,” said Oliver Nicollin, Nicomatic CEO.
The connectors have a space and weight saving feature which makes them essential for use in certain applications. These applications such as avionics are used in many on-board electronics systems, in flight controls for example.
FADEC units, HUDs, IFES, radars and electro-optical sighting systems are other electronic applications which require the specific features of the CMM series micro connectors.
Nicomatic boasts great experience in the avionics and space activities sector with their electronic solutions. They are a member of the Online Aerospace Supplier Information System (OASIS), and recently were awarded the maximum mark of 100 out of 100.
“Only a few companies reach such an excellent mark and I would like to congratulate the whole Nicomatic team for this result,” Mr Nicollin added.
“It is also the result of more than a year of hard work that is visible today.”
Challenger Components stocks Nicomatic solutions, and stocks many electronic components for clients’ requirements.
They specialise in certain areas such as static control and cooling solutions, and have 50 years experience in supplying relevant connectors to clients in a range of industries. These industries include the aviation and automotive sector.

Friends are on the way over tonight- you do not have time to whip up appetizers, but you do have some great wine. What to do? Stop by your local grocer and pick up a round loaf of sour dough bread., a bunch of green onions, make you you have mayonnaise and parmesan cheese as well.
Cut it but across from side to side, but not cutting to bottom, turn around and do it again. End result is a loaf with lots of little cubes. Set aside. Grab a bunch of green onions and chop fine all the way to the ends. Set aside. Grab some parmesan cheese flakes, ½ cup, grab 1 full cup of your favorite mayonnaise. Mix the mayo, green onions and parmesan cheese flakes together, salt and pepper. Take mixture and spoon into the crevices of the bread cubes, wrap with foil put in oven 10 min on 350. Take out, let set, pour the wine and open the top gently. The cheesy, easy bread is done, guests will be asking “how did you make this?”

What’s something that really annoys you? Perhaps its paying for something you don’t use, maybe its wasting time sitting in traffic congestion or maybe its trying to find a car parking space. Wasting time and money really annoys me.
Owning a car means spending money; car registration fees, car insurance, servicing fees, repairs and maintenance, fuel purchases, renting or buying a garage/car storage and car parking fees. Buying mobility can leave us underspent not overspent. It has the potential to change our spending and transform our savings. Being Underspent is something I’m really passionate about!
- The average car is parked 90% of the time
- The average Australian adult spends the first 8 weeks of each year working just to pay for their car.
- Our car is the second most expensive item we buy. An average new medium sized car costs $20,000.00
- The national average cost of comprehensive car insurance in RateCity’s comparison is $735.60, with Sydney remaining the most expensive city in Australia to insure your car with an average cost of $1142.55.
- The average car registration is around $800 per year
- Cars need a service every 6 – 12 months and repairs can be a costly especially when labour is $151.04 per hour.
- Motoring organisations suggest the total running costs for a medium sized car are $200 per week
So how can we buy mobility rather than buying car metal? The Mobility Revolution, a move toward environmentally-aware, quality-of-life enhancing electric, autonomous and shared vehicles is here. It’s going to changes how we live, work. move and play. The opportunities are endless: community car share schemes, by the day car rental, by the hour car sharing like GoGet, one way car sharing, ride sharing like Uber, peer-2-peer car parking, on-demand public transport, bike sharing and e-bicycles to name but a few.
Check out Kutsuplus ( Helsinki, Finland) one of world’s first attempts to provide on-demand buses and RadioBus (Czech Republic) operated like line bus transport with a regular timetable but every ride is held only when somebody confirms by telephone or internet that it will be used.
Clicking ‘LIKE’ on Facebook does NOTHING. If you want to buy mobility please share this with your Mayor.

text: The Twin Cities are blessed with good Japanese restaurants. Seriously, more than any other branch of cuisine, it can truly be said of local Japanese spots: They're all good. Our favorite, however, is homey underdog Midori's Floating World. Why? They do all the basics just right: The agedashi tofu ($4.50) trembles with freshness; the salmon nigiri ($4.50) is silky and sea-scented; the grilled mackerel dinner bento box combo ($15.25) is as sturdy and filling as a country diner blue-plate special. The service in the tiny spot off Lake Street is always sweet and makes you feel like one of the family. In addition to those basics, Midori's Floating World offers a number of specials that we crave in the night: The green tea ochazuke with salmon ($8.25), in which a broth of green tea unites rice and creamy baked salmon, is the ultimate comfort food for fish lovers, offering all the comfy notes of soft, yummy, and soothing; the Sunday night street-food special of okonomiyaki ($9.95) draws Japanese expats and former English teachers from the five-state area who pine for that particular rustic cabbage omelette; and the vegan rainbow roll ($5.50), is just catnip and heart's balm to anyone fresh from a difficult day shopping for leather-free and petroleum-product-free shoes. More points in Midori's favor? Low, low prices for hearty dinner entrees; lots of good NA beverages, like the yummy ginger-honey latte ($2.25), available iced or hot; plenty of full-on alcoholic beverages; and a willingness to bend over backward for take-out orders, especially if you call in the not-busy afternoons. They may be all good, but Midori's Floating World proves that it's the little things that elevate good to great.

Korpisalo makes 36 saves as Blue Jackets beat Lightning 4-2
Zac Dalpe scored for the first time in 4 1/2 years, Joonas Korpisalo made 36 saves and the Columbus Blue Jackets beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-2 on Tuesday night.
Max Domi and Jack Roslovic each had a goal and an assist for the Blue Jackets, who rebounded after losing three in a row. Nick Foligno also scored.
Tampa Bay has dropped two straight and five of seven overall while relinquishing first place in the Central Division to the Florida Panthers. Ross Colton and Luke Schenn scored for the Lightning, and Andrei Vasilevskiy had 26 saves.
Dalpe converted one a late first-period rush for his first NHL goal since Oct. 20, 2016, for Minnesota. Max Domi put a pass on his tape and he finished from the slot.
Dalpe was playing in just his fourth game this season after shuttling between Columbus and the AHL affiliate in Cleveland in recent years. He was recalled from the taxi squad when center Riley Nash was placed on injured reserve.
“I still want to prove to people and myself that I can play at this level, so I guess getting the goals is the cherry on top,” the 31-year-old Dalpe said. “So now it’s just waking up and trying to be that consistent player I’ve been searching to be my whole career.”
Roslovic, who was a healthy scratch for Saturday’s game, got his seventh of the season early in the third when he beat Vasilevskiy after Cam Atkinson forced a turnover and swept the puck out to him from the backboards.
Domi scored on a third-period power play, ripping a shot from the left circle that went in off the near post. Foligno got an empty-netter with 6:30 left, shortly before Tampa Bay got on the board with Colton’s shot over Korpisalo’s shoulder.
Schenn got the second for Tampa Bay with 19 seconds left.
The Lightning outshot Columbus 38-30 and had a 63-40 edge in shot attempts, with Korpisalo surviving a late 6-on-4 power play.
“When the scoring dries up a little bit you’re looking for answers,” Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said. “The big thing is when that happens, you can’t change your game.”
Dalpe said the sixth-place Blue Jackets, despite sliding down the standings in the past couple weeks, shouldn’t be counted out with 15 dates left on the regular-season schedule.
“You never know at this time of year, you have a handful of games left, if you can get on a good roll here, get some momentum, a lot can happen,” he said.

Versatile Columbus forward Boone Jenner left with 7 1/2 minutes left after getting hit with a hard shot from teammate Patrik Laine.
“Not sure we’re going to get good news there,” coach John Tortorella said.
HOME SWEET HOME
The Blue Jackets returned home after a disastrous six-game trip. They were swept by lowly Detroit in a two-game set, split a series at Tampa Bay and dropped two to Carolina. At 15-18-8, Columbus is still only five points out of the fourth playoff spot.
“When you come off a long trip like that, the first one always seems to be a tough game,” Tortorella said. “It gave us some energy. (Korpisalo) was outstanding, giving us a chance.”
The teams wrap up a two-game series Thursday night.

No cooking recipe is restricted to either the Horde or the Alliance, but some are much easier to obtain for one of them than the other. This has several reasons - a recipe may be sold by a single faction-aligned NPC, rewarded from a faction-aligned quest, or perhaps dropped in in a zone especially populated by a specific faction. Often, these recipes are available from a neutral auction house.
As of Pilgrim's Bounty (2009), the total number of recipes actually in the game was 169. With the recent implements of Cataclysm, the number of recipes increased to 202 with the additional three new recipes from Cooking Trainers, two Feasts from guild achievements, and 28 from new Cooking Dailies. For new players, however, the number of obtainable recipes is slightly less; not only were the quests yielding some recipes removed in 4.0.3a, some vendors selling recipes were also removed due to change to their location (some of these recipes returned in 4.0.6). In addition, one recipe turned out to be bugged and was removed shortly after the expansion launched to be worked on (it later returned in 4.0.6 as well). Some others were returned in 4.1.0. 4.2.0 removed another recipe and returned two more, which places the number of recipes currently available to new chefs (non-Rogues, see below) at 200. Also, keep in mind that some recipes are only available during seasonal events.
Patch 8.0.1 (2018-07-17): Each expansion now has a separate profession skill bar, with smaller caps for each expansion, instead of one gigantic profession skill bar for all expansions put together
Patch 4.2.0 (2011-06-28): The ability to make [Sporeling Snack]s has been removed from the game, and [Recipe: Sporeling Snack] in a player's inventory has been changed into a "Ruined Recipe", a gray quality item. Existing Sporeling Snacks in an inventory have also become gray items with no use, and their flavor text have changed from "Pets love sporeling snacks!" to "Pets hate sporeling snacks!" Thus, Sporeggar (faction) does not offer any cooking recipes past skill 300 anymore. Sporeling Snack has also been removed from [The Outland Gourmet]. [Recipe: Dig Rat Stew] and [Recipe: Undermine Clam Chowder] are now obtainable again. [Kibler's Bits] has been changed to just make your pet larger for 5 min, from previously increasing your pet's happiness (the happiness-system was removed in 4.1). Recipes (and related items) purchased with [Chef's Award] are now sold by NPCs in Darnassus, Ironforge, Thunder Bluff and Undercity in addition to the previous vendors in Stormwind City and Orgrimmar.

Hair: Tresemme stylists created the hair for the show. The look was soft and feminine, with loose waves and an overall 70's bohemian vibe. To achieve such tresses, hair pros used several products from the 24 Hour Body line, including the mousse and hairspray, as well as their Anti-Frizz Smoothing Cream, Spray Gel, and Fresh Start Dry Shampoo. The desired hair was natural, almost as if the models had styled it themselves. The look evoked images of 70's decadence and carried as well a "nomadic" vibe, as some models donned wrapped turbans.
According to one of the head stylists, this three-step method was employed:
1. The hair was prepped with a lightweight mousse to add texture/shine, and the hair was blown out with a round brush.
2. The hair was sectioned and wrapped around a barrel curling iron, leaving the ends rough.
3. The waves were pulled through to relax the look. Dry shampoo was used to absorb any excess oils left behind by the other styling products. Removing the moisture would result in a "just woke up" type of feel.
Makeup: Sephora Pro artists created the beauty looks to accompany the ensemble. According to Gilbert Soliz, Sephora Pro Beauty team leader, there were three components that went into the overall look which he deemed "raw, organic, and natural." Again, the intention with the makeup was to give the sense that the models did it themselves. Firstly, there was the "70's eye," consisting of monochromatic browns, with the colors "fan tailing together." The brows were then left untouched and bushy, simply brushed up, without being filled in at all. Secondly, the look of the lips was "fleshy," achieved simply by the addition of a Sephora balm. Finally, the skin was left dewy and natural, sheer with an almost "see-through" effect to round out what Soliz called a "poetically pretty" face.
The following products were used: For the eyes, Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes in Pearly Brown 2L created a "soft winged eye." Diorshow mascara was added to the lashes to give volume and complete the winged eye look. For lips, Sephora FACE Very Sexy Nourishing Lip Balm SPF 15 gave the pout a natural and soft appearance.
Nails: China Glaze was in charge of the manicures. The nails were painted using a nude/beige polish, with subtle opalescence, called III, a natural shade, which China Glaze manicurist Julie Kandalec said was used to again achieve a "monochromatic" effect, an "extension of the skin of the finger", so to speak.

Where can I buy the bottom plastic shield that covers the engine oil filter/ oil drain plug? Mine fell out recently… I live in Canada. Any answers would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
I can only speak for myself but I would not replace it . Anew one might be a dealer only item and anything from a salvage yard might not last very long. You might ask a local body shop if they can get one.
The Mitsubishi dealer sell this part. You might also find one on RockAuto.com and other places if that part is available from aftermarket sources.
Thanks for the reply guys!
So I’m a little worried because winters are harsher up here in Canada and I use a Nylon based ring for the oil drain plug. I’m afraid that not replacing the shield could cause the ring to be exposed to the elements and crack.
I’ll try a scrapyard but do you know what they are commonly called as a reference so I can search on Rockauto?
I vote scrap yard. If you can’t find a good one go new.
Don’t worry about the nylon drain plug gasket. It can handle winter and the missing under-tray, belly pan, ect will not protect it from much. The part goes by more names than I can even think beyond under-tray and belly pan. There is no standard name for it. IF you can find it in a wreckers, it will likely need new fasteners to secure it. Some cars have special ones for easy access.


Google’s AMP roll out didn’t necessarily dominate world headlines when it happened, but it did send shockwaves through the communities of those that do business online and create content for websites. Knowing what the particular focus and changes are is necessary in order to keep your online business from suffering. In fact, hopefully you can find ways to even take advantage of it when you know the 3 ways of just how Google’s AMP roll out will affect your business. Keep reading to learn the exact specifics that you need to know.
AMP stands for Accelerated Mobile Pages. It’s part of Google’s new focus on mobile devices. For a long time, mobile users of smaller electronics like smartphones and tablets had to suffer downloading web pages meant for desktop computers, whose screens have been growing in size. This made things either really tiny for smartphone users or lots of scrolling and zooming in and out.
AMP is an effort to streamline how pages are created for mobile devices so that they load much faster, which is critical on data-limited plans. Your business can now use AMP HTML to streamline website content to strip out cumbersome various scripts and deliver streamlined content to mobile devices, which poses a choice as to whether or not to do it.
Because the mobile segment of the Internet is the fastest growing segment of online traffic. Look at the sluggish and sometimes slowing growth of desktop sales versus smartphones and tablets. Consider how even desktop and laptop users are spending more time online on their smartphones. If you want to make sales to all these users, you need your content to be there and loading fast.
Even if you currently get some mobile traffic without AMP content, you might be losing out surfers that never wait for your content to load. A third of mobile users back out and go elsewhere if something doesn’t load right away. If content takes as long as 10 seconds, the number of people hitting the X or Back keys or buttons roughly doubles. AMP streamlines content to improve loading times anywhere from 15% to 85%.
This is where things can get a little complicated. It appears for now that sites optimized for organic searching are getting their links and listings posted below AMP content in the search results.
When you consider how few results show up on a mobile screen to start with, you’ll realize that organic links are really suffering here. The flip side of that is that they’re suffering from being below AMP content. Simply by taking part in AMP content, your business can get back on the cutting edge.
Google believes the near future of the Internet is mobile device traffic, and is looking to make things easier for mobile users through AMP and other projects. Stay on top of things about how Google’s AMP will affect your business, and you can maintain and even grow its sales compared to those slow to stick with the cutting edge.

U.S. Steel's Minntac Mine has invested approximately $8 million in a major water return project aimed at improving the water quality in its tailings basin. The project replaces water with high sulfate levels from Mountain Iron Pit with an internal water return system, resulting in long-term water quality improvement.
United States Steel Corp’s Minntac Mine has taken a notable environmental step by voluntarily investing $8 million in a water return project. This initiative aims to replace the existing high-sulfate make-up water from Mountain Iron Pit with an internal water return system.
Previously, water from Mountain Iron Pit was used to supplement the water pumped from the tailings basin to an on-site reservoir and then to the processing plants. This water had high levels of sulfate, which contributed to lesser water quality in the tailings basin.
The newly installed internal water return system is designed to bring significant long-term improvement to the water quality. The idea for this project was conceived back in December 2018 when Minntac received a new tailings basin water permit that had various goals and requirements.
To solve the water return problem, Minntac Mine collaborated with Barr Engineering to develop a computer model that would allow for a greater volume of water to be pumped from the tailings basin to the reservoir feeding the plant. This led to the installation of two new three-mile long pipes, 24 inches in diameter.
The project has been deemed a success. Robert Wilmunen, U.S. Steel Minntac Mine engineering manager, stated that these new pipes could deliver an additional 11,500 gallons of water per minute back to the plants. This alleviates the need to use high-sulfate water from the Mountain Iron Pit, thereby reducing the sulfate load in the tailings basin by 18,000 pounds per day.
The decision to invest in this water return project was not mandated by any permits but was a voluntary act aimed at improving environmental conditions. While immediate effects are not visible due to the large volume of water in the tailings basin, the project is considered a significant step toward long-term environmental benefits.
The $8 million water return project at Minntac Mine represents a commendable effort toward sustainable and responsible mining. Although the immediate impact on water quality may not be easily quantifiable, the project sets a precedent for voluntary environmental stewardship in the mining industry.

Recently our President Pratibha Patel visited German concentration camps where six million Jews had been exterminated. Her visit reminds my days in Germany during my service as Commander of NATO Forces (Holland Sector). During that time I saw a concrete reminder of one of the worst human disasters in modern times. I visited a concentration camp, and I became sick to my stomach.
What Hitler did to the humanity is unspeakable. How did it happen? Where were the civilized people? There are no answers. What I saw there is beyond my ability to tell anyone, and I am sorry that readers have to know about things like this. The event about which I am going to speak is known as the Holocaust. In the Greek language holo means ‘whole’ and caustos means ‘burned’. Originally, it referred to a religious rite in which an offering was entirely consumed by fire. In our modern day society, holocaust relates to any mass human disaster; but when written Holocaust, with the capital ‘H’, it refers to the death of over six million Jews in Nazi Germany's death camps.
In the early 19th century, the Jews of Europe and of Germany in particular, began to be harassed by anti-Semitic race groups in Germany. The word anti-Semitism refers to the racism directed against Jewish people. Many Jewish people were prosperous. Germany had problems, and when people have problems, they often look for someone to blame; so when Hitler came to power in 1933, he began to blame the Jews. Jews were oppressed in many ways, and Hitler developed such a hatred of them that he decided to wipe them out. Even if someone were only part Jewish or married to a Jew, they were characterized as racially impure and a threat to the rest of the German people.
Hitler began by passing laws that discriminated against Jewish people. Jews lost their businesses and couldn't get hired by other people. There were more and more things that became closed to them. When one young Jew assassinated a German diplomat in Paris, there were riots, and synagogues all across Germany were set on fire. Windows of were smashed, and people were beaten up — and all this with the blessing of the government. In fact, it was the Jew who was put in jail. German people could do anything they wanted to Jews and they would not be punished for it.
Jewish people became very afraid, and many fled to other countries for refuge. When the Second World War began, Hitler's army took over many neighbouring nations. In Poland, Jews were forced to move into ghettos surrounded by walls and barbed wire. The houses where they once lived were just taken away from them, and if they had money in the bank, that was taken too. In every country that Hitler took over — and this includes The Netherlands, France, Belgium, Austria and others — it was the same. Then he developed what was called ‘the final solution’. He created huge camps where Jews were taken and killed. He rounded these people up just like they were animals and stuffed them into trains to take them to the camps. The conditions on these trains were so bad that many sick or elderly Jews died before they even got to the death camps. It was a horrible, human tragedy.
I cannot even explain to my readers how I felt when I visited some of these camps. There were many of them, located in Belzec, Sobibor, Treblinka, Majdanek (Lublin), and Auschwitz (Os'wiecim), Kulmhof, Northwest of the Lodz ghetto. Some of them had carbon monoxide gas chambers that could kill hundreds of people in just a few minutes. In Auschwitz alone, the Jewish dead totalled more than a million, and, in all, six million died. Can anyone believe this?
Auschwitz. That was the worst camp. It was located near Krakow in Germany and was the largest of the camps. Unlike the others, it used quick-working hydrogen cyanide for the gassings. The victims of Auschwitz came from all over Europe. They were brought from Norway, France, Hungary, the Lowland Countries, Italy, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Yugoslavia, and Greece. Some were subjected to brutal medical experiments, and lots were sterilized, making them incapable of having children. Many died of starvation or disease, because the camps were filthy. Families were split up, people's heads were shaved, and numbers were tattooed on their arms. Then, most were killed in the gas chambers. To get rid of the many bodies, Hitler constructed large crematoriums, where the bodies could be burned to ashes.

According to popular belief, Mother Shipton lived in Tudor times and foretold many major events in English history. A chapbook of 1641 alleges she was born at Knaresborough (Yorkshire) in 1488 and died in her seventies; however, these details may be inaccurate. A later one (1684) is frankly fabulous, making her a devil's child and a witch. Prophecies attributed to her were exploited in the Civil War.
In 1862 Charles Hindley, a hack writer and publisher, reprinted one of the old chapbooks, adding some rhyming ‘prophecies’ of his own invention, concluding dramatically:The world then to an end shall comeIn eighteen hundred and eighty-one.
These verses caused considerable alarm among the lower classes. Hindley later confessed he had written them himself (N&Q 4s:11 (1873), 355). Even so, there was panic when the Doomsday year arrived, especially around Brighton (Sussex), where Hindley's pamphlet had been printed; people deserted their homes and spent the nights praying in the fields. A few years earlier there had been a brief local panic in Somerset, because Mother Shipton was said to have prophesied that at midday on Good Friday 1879 Ham Hill would be swallowed by an earthquake and Yeovil destroyed by a flood (Pall Mall Gazette (Apr. 1879)).
Mother Shipton is still a tourist attraction at Knaresborough, where pamphlets about her are available; during most of the 20th century the Doomsday prediction appeared, but altered to read ‘In nineteen hundred and ninety-one’.

Need a sweet fix? Try your hand at one of these delectable dessert recipes that highlight a staple Caribbean flavor: the coconut. Whether it’s quick and simple coconut kisses, a classic coco quemado or the more involved flan de coco, your taste buds will thank you.
Tía Berta’s Coconut Kisses
In Havana Salsa (2006), author Viviana Carballo shares recipes and stories of her family’s life in Cuba. Food played an integral role in her memories of the island and her eventual exile, underscoring the sweetness of her native land but also the bitter pain of having to leave it. In “Tía Berta’s Coconut Kisses,” Carballo offers a short anecdote about her aunt’s coconut macaroons:
“Since Tía was not welcome in Dulce’s kitchen, she had to… rush in and make a commando raid in the shortest time possible. I was grateful for her kindness… She wasn’t much of a cook either, but these besitos required very little skill and just three ingredients—that much she could handle.”
Indeed, the recipe is simple: combine seven ounces of grated coconut flakes, half a cup of condensed milk and one egg, well beaten, in a bowl while preheating the oven to 300°F. Drop dollops of the mixture on a buttered cookie sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes. The kisses should be firm but still chewy.
Coco Quemado
In this recipe from 1914, José E. Triay brings us another simple coconut dessert preparation, reproduced below:
“Rallado el coco, se le incorporan yemas de huevo batidas, amasándolo, y se echan en almíbar con un poco de canela y vino de Jerez, y se tienen al fuego hasta que espesen; entonces se echan en un plato y se queman por arriba, poniendo sobre ellas la tapadera con unas brasas.”
Flan de coco
Nitza Villapol’s seminal Cocina al minuto (1958) gives us yet another reason to cook with the fruit that keeps on giving. Her flan de coco is a coconut custard that is guaranteed to send you into a delicious sugar coma. Villapol offers brand suggestions for her ingredients, preferring Aspuru sugar and La Dichosa brand eggs for her flan. The ingredients are as follows:
½ taza azúcar blanca Aspuru.
3 huevos de La Dichosa.
1 lata de 14 oz. dulce de coco.
3 yemas de huevo.
Melt the sugar to use as a glaze in the flan mold. Beat the egg yolks lightly and add the syrupy canned coconut shavings. Pour into the mold and double boil at 350°F for an hour and half.

I'm sure there is a thread here somewhere with pictures on removing it. I referred to it when I took the card off my Brera.
From memory it is along these lines.
It's pretty simple, you just have to find all of the screws in the door. Behind the plastic cover in the interior door handle, remove the electric window switch as there is one in there. 3 or 4 along the bottom edge. Remove the puddle light and undo the wiring clip from the back. You may have to remove the plastic trim triangle from mirror part of the door as there may be a screw behind that, I can't remember.
Then tease off the card bit by bit, without using anything narrow to prise it with else you could mark the door card. Don't be afraid to give it a bit of a tug, so long as the pressure is even and all the screws have been removed.
Mine had a rattle which was a loose clip, the rattle was fixed when the clip was re-seated.


Mary Walter co-hosts WMAL’s “Mornings on the Mall” every morning from 5-9 AM. Mary’s radio career began in her home state of New Jersey when she entered a radio station contest and won the Grand Prize – host of the station’s evening relationship advice “Passion Phones” show! She spent five years hosting that program on WKXW (New Jersey 101.5), the powerful talk station which covered the entire area between New York and Philadelphia.
Her next stop was at WCTC, another New Jersey station, where she hosted the morning show for four years as “Mary In The Morning”. In 2006, Mary became a regular guest host for Fox News Radio, Brian Kilmeade and Sirius XM’s Patriot channel. Prior to joining WMAL, Mary hosted on WHAS/Louisville.
Vince Coglianese co-hosts WMAL’s “Mornings on the Mall” every morning from 5-9 AM.
As a journalist and longtime listener, Vince knows firsthand how essential it is to start the day with “Mornings on the Mall.” It’s a legendary show with an important mission — engage, amuse and inform Washington, D.C.
In addition to hosting Washington’s must-hear morning show, Vince was the former editor-in-chief of The Daily Caller (2016-2017). Upon assuming the co-host role for “Mornings on the Mall,” Vince transitioned to become The Daily Caller’s editorial director.
A longtime talk radio fan, Vince’s first foray into the medium came when — as a high school senior — he joined a weekly panel show on “The Talk Station,” WTKF and WJNC, in Morehead City, N.C. Vince also served as the sports anchor for a television program airing on Camp Lejeune, NC’s LCTV-10.
After graduating from DeSales University with a degree in Political Science, Vince joined “The Talk Station” full-time as a host and station manager for the company’s Jacksonville, N.C. presence. While in North Carolina, he also served as the web editor for CarolinaCoastOnline.com.
Vince enjoys Italian food, skeet shooting, and untangling his fly-fishing line from every single tree.
Executive Producer Heather Hunter has been managing WMAL’s popular morning drive show “Mornings on the Mall” and the afternoon-drive show “Drive at Five” on 105.9 FM / AM 630 since she joined WMAL in 2010.
Heather is a veteran radio, television, and film producer. She has been working in media for over 20 years. She previously produced the top Orlando morning-drive talk radio program on 540 WFLA Orlando, various shows for XM Satellite Radio, and three top ten nationally syndicated radio programs: “The G. Gordon Liddy Show”, “The Laura Ingraham Show” and most recently, “The Lars Larson Show.”
She started working in radio at an alternative rock radio station, hosting a sex and relationships talk radio show on WJBX 99X. Prior to working at the rock station, she had founded the radio station at her high school. She later co-founded the online student radio station at her university to counter the university’s non-commercial publicly-funded radio station that did not involve the students.
She moved to Washington, D.C. to work for Fox News Channel, where she produced “Fox News Live” and “Weekend Live with Tony Snow.” She also has produced numerous documentary films hosted by former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and Dick Morris (she produced the film Hillary the Movie — the Citizens United film that led to a pivotal Supreme Court case Citizens United v. FEC). Several of her indie films have been played in the Tambay Film Festival and New Zealand Film Festival. In her most recent documentary, she was a producer on the documentary film Generation Zero directed by Steve Bannon. While in college, she studied film under one of the co-founders of Sundance Film Festival and worked for a production company that produced documentary films and television shows for PBS and Travel Channel.
She has been in front of the microphone having been interviewed on Fox News Channel, MSNBC, and many nationally syndicated talk radio programs about an initiative she spearheaded to mandate American flags in every public classroom in Florida. The Freedom Flag Act was signed into law by Governor Jeb Bush in May 2004. Prior to the flag initiative, she worked on political campaigns.
In addition to producing, she writes for The Daily Caller and LifeZette. She lives in the Washington, D.C. area with her radio host husband Derek and children.


The 217-213 vote is a significant triumph for Mr Trump, who repeatedly promised during his campaign to repeal and replace former President Barack Obama’s healthcare law. Mr Trump suffered a major setback in March after a vote on an earlier version of the American Health Care Act (AHCA) was dramatically cancelled at the last minute when it failed to gain enough Republican support.
Twenty Republicans voted against the legislation, which was fully rejected by Democrats.
The AHCA now faces an uphill battle in the Senate, but Mr Trump feels confident about the result. “It’s going to an unbelievable victory when we get it through the Senate,” Mr Trump said at a press conference following the House vote.
Pregnancy to cost 425% more under Trump’s healthcare plan
Mr Trump saluted the bill as “a great plan and I think it will get even better”, saying more than once, “make no mistake: this is a repeal and replace of Obamacare”. The US leader also vowed that premiums and deductibles would come down.
“People are suffering so badly with the ravages of Obamacare,” said Mr Trump, whose West Wing staff were eager for the appearances of a victory after a turbulent first 100 days in office. A joyous Mr Trump at one point even turned to the representatives lined up behind him and, suggesting the victory was especially impressive for a novice politician, exclaimed “Hey, I’m President! I’m President! Can you believe it?”
Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell has repeatedly said the upper chamber would work on a healthcare bill if the House passed one, but that it would be difficult.

My partner and I are planning a year out travelling with our sons aged 11,9 and 5. We plan to visit Ethiopia, Tanzania, Mozambique and Zimbabwe (where I was brought up), starting in Sept / Oct 2011, and spending about 5 months in Africa before heading to SE Asia. Does anyone have any experience of travelling in these places with children this age? Any recommendations? With this being a long trip, we will need to watch our budget! We would also like to stay in some places for a longer period, volunteering either as a family or one adult, freeing the other to care for our children. Has anyone any experience of this? Any tips gratefully received! Thank you.

Donald Tusk, president of the European Council, warned the EU was now facing a “critical point” and that the migrant crisis hadn’t even reached its peak.
As he chaired an emergency meeting of EU leaders in Brussels last night Mr Tusk painted a bleak picture of the EU’s future, saying the 28-member bloc was on the verge of breakdown with “recriminations and misunderstanding” pitting nations against one another.
The future of free movement was at stake, he said, as the continent had lost control of its borders as well as a “sense of order”.
He added: “The most urgent question we should ask ourselves…is how to regain control of our external borders.
“Otherwise, it doesn’t make sense to even speak about common migration policy.”
He appeared to lay much of the blame with Germany, accusing Chancellor Angela Merkel of exacerbating the problem by sending the signal to desperate Syrians fleeing their war-torn homeland that Germany had no limit on the number of migrants it would accept.
He added: “We need to correct our policy of open doors and windows.
“Today we are talking about millions of potential refugees trying to reach Europe, not thousands.
“It is likely that more refugees will flow towards Europe, not less. Especially as almost all of them feel invited to Europe.”

At Farmers Market, it’s worth the wait
Lines often form on the sidewalks of Dodge and Nebraska streets as customers line up for fresh-baked bars, raspberry jam, local honey, angel food cake or sugar snap peas. The good news is, that time doesn’t have to be unproductive. Many customers find it’s an excellent opportunity to connect with one another and even share recipe ideas.
This week as I helped customers at my vendor table, I witnessed people sharing some scrumptious ideas for cooking beets. I can’t tell you how much I love seeing this. Watching people chat about how they turn their fresh produce into meals is fun and informational for everyone within earshot and often inspires someone to try a new vegetable. This is one of the things I love about our community and our market ─ people’s willingness to connect and share ideas.

I like these curls and hair color. I love sock buns, but I LOVE the curls they make in my little girls hair! I used two of her socks and made on on top of her head and one down a little lower. That seems to make the most even curls for her small head.
Another hair trick: How to do beachy waves in less than 5 minutes: Divide your hair into two parts. Twist each section and tie with a hair tie. Run your straighter/flat iron over both of the twist a few times. Untie twists, and you're done.

ADS-B Latency Estimation Technique for Surveillance Performance Assessment
- 126 Downloads
Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is one of the key available technologies for aircraft surveillance. ADS-B provides high accurate GNSS positions with high update rate for air traffic control and airline operations. This feature will improve the safety and efficiency of air traffic operations. However, ADS-B user cannot benefit from the accuracy capability because the ADS-B message does not include information of GNSS measured time and because of the latency between the GNSS measured time and ADS-B message arrival time. In this paper, we propose a technique to estimate the variable element of ADS-B latency. Then, the proposed technique is applied to real data obtained by ENRI experimental system. The results of the estimations are presented in support of performance assessment.
