Can Dogs See Ghosts? Busting Myths & More
With their heightened senses, dogs are capable of sensing things we can't - but are ghosts one of them? Here's a deep dive into our furry friends' extraordinary sensory superpowers.
As Halloween creeps closer and the nights get spookier, you might find yourself paying extra attention whenever your dog perks up at some unseen sight, sound, or smell. (And they’re always in the dark corners, aren’t they? You know, the ones where things always seem to go bump at night.) It’s enough to make you wonder, “Can dogs see ghosts? What can dogs see that humans can’t?”
It’s tempting to consider our dogs as paranormal superheroes – sniffing out ghosts and goblins from every corner. In fact, the idea that dogs can see or “sense” spirits has fascinated humans for centuries. But in this post, we’re going to bust some myths – including whether these claims are real or just the stuff of legend.
Because yes, even if your buddy is barking at a dark corner of your room, the reasons are likely way less creepy than you think. Let’s get snooping.

So…can dogs see spirits?
Firstly, no – there’s no scientific evidence that supports the claim that dogs can see ghosts or spirits. (No matter what Hollywood, Netflix, or the Ghostbusters might tell you.) But it’s understandable if you think so. After all, dogs tend to have heightened senses that are way sharper and better developed than our own. So how do you explain it when your dog, say, barks at a dark corner of your house – or continues to interact with the belongings of someone who’s passed away?
What can dogs “see” that humans can’t?
Besides their keen sense of smell, dogs are sensitive to a bunch of stimuli in our environment. Much of which we aren’t really aware of ourselves. Here are a couple.
Movement & motion – especially in the dark
Dogs can see a broader spectrum of light than humans. Their eyes are built to detect more subtle shifts in light and shadow, even in dark, dimly-lit areas.1 Plus, dogs can also see at a distance up to eight times further than humans. Because of this, your dog is better able to navigate in the dark than you are. It’s also why you’ll see wild dogs or wolves active around nighttime. They hunt and travel as they might during the day.
Dogs are also highly sensitive to motions in the environment.2 So they’re better at picking up on moving objects than still ones. This, combined with their ability to see better in the dark, means they’re more sensitive to subtle changes in shadowy areas. Besides this, your dog also has a wider field of vision than you. So they can more easily detect a “threat” or prey approaching from a distance or the side. (While you might have to turn your head to spot it.)
So the next time you see your dog barking or even growling at a shadowy corner of your house, don’t fret. It’s more likely to be the movement of some household pest, bug, or a bit of dust. (Or even the pile of laundry you’ve dumped on your desk chair.) Movements that might otherwise be undetectable (or invisible) to the human eye.
Sounds too high-pitched for us to hear
Your dog’s sense of hearing is their next superpower. In fact, it’s close to a hundred times better than that of humans! Dogs are capable of picking up higher-pitched or higher-frequency sounds at much greater distances than us.3 (Like, for example, dog whistles.) Dogs can hear sounds up to 64,000 Hz – humans only around 20,000.
Which is why high-pitched or intermittent sounds might be more likely to spook your dog instead.4 You might’ve seen this watching them bark or hide or whimper when your smoke detector battery signals it’s low. Other examples of high-frequency sounds in your household are doors creaking, indoor alarms, or the humming of your ceiling fan.
So if your dog cocks their head expectantly as if listening to something unseen, rest assured. They’re most likely trying to figure out if there’s a problem with your air freshener. (They just can’t help doing it when it happens to be dark around your house.)
Scents & smells we can’t perceive
Dogs’ noses have close to 300 million olfactory receptors. (While humans, in comparison, have only around 6 million.) In fact, an entire portion of your dog’s brain is designed to pick up and sort out smells alone. But while it’s arguably their ultimate superpower, your dog still doesn’t qualify as the next Ghostbuster. Rather, they’re actually capable of “smelling” out different health conditions – and even our emotions.
Our bodies actually tend to give off a certain scent (or chemosignals) when we’re feeling happy or scared. In fact, a 2018 study even found that Golden Labs and Retrievers are able to “smell” human emotions – including fear.5 The researchers found that when dogs were more exposed to the “scent” of someone in a state of fear or stress, they were more likely to respond with stress themselves. So if your buddy tends to get spooked when you two are walking out late at night together – it’s more likely they’re responding to your fear. (And not Casper the friendly ghost.)
In fact, dogs’ ability to sense emotions are one part of why they’re emotionally intelligent in general. It’s why they make excellent therapy dogs and emotional support dogs. But did you know that some dogs can even be trained to detect health conditions early on? With their sense of smell, they can sniff out the chemosignals from people’s bodies that might indicate the presence of cancer cells.6 Medical detection dogs7 are trained to detect a variety of infectious and non-infectious diseases from people’s breath, bodily fluids, and even blood.8
So while your dog can’t sniff out your neighborhood-friendly Moaning Myrtle, they’re more likely to pick up on the signs that someone might not be well. Which, in the long run, can even help save someone’s life.
Low-frequency vibrations in the environment
You might’ve read stories of how dogs have alerted their parents to earthquakes and other natural disasters. And it’s another one of your buddy’s superpowers. Aka, dogs’ sensitivity to subtle shifts in the wider environment. Which include low-frequency vibrations that we might not “hear’, but rather sense unconsciously.
Low-frequency sound waves cause a physical vibration in the environment.9 (Like, for example the rumble of an airplane taking off or even your air conditioner.) Among low frequency sounds are infrasonic sounds, which fall below 20 Hz. So while your dog can’t “hear” them, they can pick up on these vibrations through sensory organs like their whiskers or even their paws.
In fact, infrasound is why you might find yourself with “chills” when you’re attending a live concert. It’s just how our bodies react to sounds at a certain frequency. A British study tested how audience members responded to music containing infrasound.10 The participants were more likely to feel anxious, sad, and uneasy when exposed to it. So while you can’t hear it consciously, it’s enough to make your brain let off some alarm bells all the same.
Even the creaking of old pipes can emit low-frequency infrasonic sound waves. Which might explain the creepy feeling you get passing by that old house in your neighborhood. You and your dog both can’t consciously “hear” these vibrations, since they fall just below the threshold of our senses. But since your brain can’t find its source, it’s why you (and your dog) might feel anxious, spooked, or alert instead.11
That said, dogs – and other animals – can still be sensitive to impending natural disasters, like earthquakes and tsunamis. It’s why they’re likely to hide or flee before it strikes. (Since they’re sensitive to low-frequency vibrations that signal what’s to come.)
Do dogs have a sixth sense? Explaining your dog’s “gut” feeling
With all their enhanced senses, you might be wondering if dogs have a sixth sense. (Or a gut feeling that alerts them when something is wrong.) But more often than not, it’s simply your dog reacting with their regular five senses. This combines with their attunement to our emotional states – along with some good old fashioned habits they’ve picked up.
Old habits & behaviors
Your dog’s learned behaviors are why you’ll see, for example, them continuing to lie on the side of the bed of someone who’s passed away – or cock their head towards a chair they’d usually sit on, long after they’ve passed.
Rather than “sensing” something supernatural, your dog is more likely following deeply-rooted behavioral patterns. If that’s where a loved one used to sit and interact with them, your dog might continue to go there expecting it without fully understanding they’re gone.
Dogs are also keenly attuned to our moods. (Which explains why they just seem to be around just at the right time we need a hug.) It’s why they make such excellent emotional support animals. Besides, your dog is more likely to learn that giving you cuddles when you’re upset gets them cuddles right back. (So win-win both ways.)
Ever come back home unexpectedly from work and find your dog waiting at the door – as if they’d know you were on your way home? It’s a phenomenon researchers have observed even among untrained dogs. And it can come across as if dogs seem to intuitively know what’s going to happen. But like we’ve covered, it’s more likely the case they picked up your scent approaching from down the block. (And ran to position in advance.)
It’s how, for example, service dogs are trained to pick up on signs that their parent might be ill. (Even before they drop by the clinic.) Aka, a combination of training, superior senses, and knowledge of their parent’s regular schedule, routine, and activities. But even untrained pet dogs can show similar behaviors out of instinct. (Like sensitivity to upcoming changes in the weather or changes in their parent’s mood.)
And since dogs are sensitive to fear as our bodies signal it, it’s more likely they’re reacting to you. They can pick up even the subtlest changes in your body language or behavior. (Which might make it seem as though they’re reacting to something spooky – when it might just be our own unspoken cues.)
Why else could my dog hide or get spooked by something in the dark?
It could be the vacuum cleaner – it could be something more serious. But if you’re finding your dog hiding or cowering a bit more than usual – or, on the other hand, bolting off into the dark to investigate something – here are two reasons why.
Your dog might hide because they’re sick
Dogs might hide or cower for as many reasons as they might experience fear or anxiety. But your dog might also be likely to hide because they’re trying to mask an illness or infection.
It’s a tendency that’s hardwired into your dog’s evolutionary history. Aka, wild dogs and wolves are more likely to withdraw to hide any signs of sickness or injury. Doing so would simply make them vulnerable to other predators. And since your dog might hide their signs of sickness from you, it’s easy to miss out on their symptoms until it’s too late.
Which is why vets always recommend tracking observable behaviors like your dog’s sleep and activity. With this data at hand, you’re more easily able to pick up on dips, spikes, and changes – and pick up on a change in your dog’s behavior even if they seem happy and healthy. So you can take action and get them to a vet before their condition worsens and they hide from you to handle it themselves.
It’s how Tractive pet parents around the world are staying on top of their dog’s health. With its Wellness Monitoring features, your Tractive GPS helps you identify your dog’s regular levels of sleep and activity – so you can catch on to a change quickly.
Here’s a story from one of our pet parents who caught on to a subtle change in her Beagle’s behavior, which helped her catch a medical emergency early on.
“When I looked at Ruby’s Wellness profile, the data showed that her activity level was low and that she hadn’t slept well. I was concerned and watched her carefully.
Early the next morning, she had blood in her urine and was lethargic. We visited the emergency veterinarian, and Ruby was diagnosed with a UTI.
She received antibiotics and pain medication and is feeling much better. Her tracker data made me aware that she was not acting normally and that something could be wrong with her.
I love her tracker, and I will always have one for any dog I ever own.“– Katie J, Delaware
Your dog might bolt off into the dark due to their prey drive
Some dogs have a higher prey drive than others. Breeds like Retrievers, Irish Setters, Border Collies, Pointers, and Australian Shepherds have keen hunting instincts. They’ve been trained over centuries to hunt, chase down, and capture prey. Which makes these dogs a bit more challenging to handle when walking through the neighborhood. (Since they’re more likely to bolt.)
It’s one of the reasons you might find your dog on alert, ears cocked, listening keenly – while staring into the creepy dark forest or some poorly-lit urban area at nighttime. And if you’re in the habit of taking them out on walks at night, it’s less likely they’re sniffing out ghosts and more likely investigating the local squirrel population instead.
It’s how Imogen, a high-energy Borzoi, found herself bolting the fence from her yard – and crashing through the ice in a frozen lake nearby. But luckily, with a little help from her Tractive GPS (and some neighbors), her mum was able to find her immediately and rescue her from freezing and drowning.
Tractive also has you covered if you find yourself (literally) in the dark, looking for your dog. With its Light and Sound functions, you can locate your dog with an LED light in case they’ve run off somewhere past sunset. And with its LIVE tracking, you can breathe safely knowing that you can track your dog in real-time – every 2-3 seconds and no matter where you are in the world.
Always know where your dog is
Follow every step in real-time with unlimited range. Get alerts if they wander too far. Keep them happy & healthy with Wellness Monitoring. And let others – like walkers or sitters – keep an eye on your dog too.
“Everything we build puts pets and pet parents first. It’s why we’ve built one device that tracks all aspects of your pet’s safety, from location to wellness. So you can holistically keep them both safe and happy.“– Sebastian Raab, Product Manager at Tractive & occasional pet-sitter
Celebrate your buddy’s sensory superpowers this spooky season
So, can dogs see ghosts? Not really. But what they lack in Ghostbusting, they make up for with their incredible senses and their profound connection to us. While they might not qualify as the next Scooby Doo, they’re able to detect subtle changes in the environment, sense our emotions – and even save lives. All of which count as superpowers, if you ask us.
Your dog’s senses, combined with their intelligence, training, and emotional attachment to us result in their “spooky” behaviors. So, for example, if you see your dog bolting off into the woods in the dark, it’s more likely due to their prey drive. (And not them running late to their Hound of the Baskervilles audition.)
But if you’re noticing your buddy cowering or hiding more than usual, make sure to keep an eye out for any health concerns. With Tractive, you can both stay on top of your buddy’s nighttime wanderings – and also track their activity and sleep patterns. Which can help you catch on to a health problem early.
Your bond with your dog is a special one. And their unique abilities to sense emotions, changes in our environment, and even subtle movements only add to the magic of this connection. So whether or not your dog can see ghosts, their regular old superpowers offer us something that’s way more special than anything supernatural.
Still curious about your dog’s senses? Here are 8 things dogs can sense – that we can’t:

Preclinical studies with recombinant murine interleukin 4 (IL4) in models of cancer have shown potent tumor growth inhibition. However, systemic administration of human IL4 to cancer patients exhibited modest antitumor activity and considerable toxicities. To improve the therapeutic index and reduce side effects of this cytokine, we developed of a novel "immunocytokine" based on sequential fusion of murine IL4 with the antibody fragment F8 (specific to the alternatively spliced extra-domain A of fibronectin, a marker for tumor-angiogenesis) in diabody format. The resulting fusion protein, termed F8-IL4, retained full antigen-binding activity and cytokine bioactivity and was able to selectively localize on solid tumors in vivo. When used as single agent, F8-IL4 inhibited tumor growth in three different immunocompetent murine cancer models (F9 teratocarcinoma, CT26 colon carcinoma and A20 lymphoma). Furthermore, F8-IL4 showed synergistic effects when coadministered with immunocytokines based on IL2 and IL12. Indeed, combination therapy with an IL12-based immunocytokine yielded complete tumor eradication, in spite of the fact that IL4 and IL12 display opposite immunological mechanisms of action in terms of their polarization of T-cell based responses. No weight loss or any signs of toxicity were observed in treated mice, both in monotherapy and in combination, indicating a good tolerability of the immunocytokine treatment. Interestingly, mice cured from CT26 tumors acquired a durable protective antitumor immunity. Depletion experiments indicated that the antitumor activity was mediated by CD8+ T cells and by NK cells.

James Shields pitched six shutout innings and received a whole mess of run support as the Padres beat the Braves 9-0 to take the series win. Melvin Upton, replacing the traded Will Venable in the starting lineup, came up big against his former team, recording 5 RBI on a single and two home runs. The 5 RBI were his most in nearly four years; it had been almost two years since he had even three in a game.
The Padres broke through with the first run of the game in the bottom of the third inning. Cory Spangenberg hit a one-out triple, then made it home on a fly ball by Matt Kemp to old friend Cameron Maybin. That lead looked as good as gone in the top of the fourth when Shields loaded the bases with no outs before proceeding to collect his sixth strikeout and then induce a classic 6-4-3 double play to escape unscathed.
San Diego doubled their lead in their half of the fourth on a one-out double from Derek Norris followed by a Melvin Upton single. The 2-0 score held until the sixth, at which point the game was, in the words of Ted Leitner, "ba-lown open!" The two Uptons teamed up to start the scoring. Justin led off with a double off reliever David Aardsma, then two outs later older brother Melvin hit his fourth homer of the year for the Bro-B-I and a 4-0 lead. Aardsma gave up a single to Alexi Amarista before getting the hook, then Ross Detwiler came in and walked Brett Wallace, who was pinch-hitting for Shields. With two on, Yangervis Solarte broke out of his series-long 0-fer in a big way. He blasted a 408-foot home run for the Padres' fifth, sixth, and seventh runs of the game. Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez stuck with Detwiler for three more batters, which resulted in Padres on every pillow. Andrew McKirahan came in and stopped the bleeding by getting Yonder Alonso -- the Padres' eleventh batter of the inning -- to ground out. Alonso also made the first out of the inning, making him the soggy bread on the runs sandwich.
They tacked on two more "insurance" runs the very next inning. Derek Norris doubled again and came home on Melvin's second homer of the day. That would hold for the final tally as the Padres decided to be good hosts in the bottom of the eighth and not embarrass them any further.
Shields held Atlanta scoreless by scattering four singles and a double along with two walks over his six innings. He exited after 95 pitches (59 strikes) and seven strikeouts under his belt. His record is now 9-5 while former Padres prospect Matt Wisler fell to 5-3. Odrisamer Despaigne took over and kept the Braves off the board for the next two innings, allowing two singles and a double. Kevin Quackenbush came in for the ninth and closed the door.
The Padres will go for the sweep tomorrow at 12:40pm, with Tyson Ross and Julio Teheran taking turns on the mound.

Understanding and mitigating risk is at the forefront of any financial services institution. However, as previously discussed in the first blog of this two-part series, banks today are still struggling to keep up with the emerging risks and threats facing their business. Plagued by the limitations of on-premises infrastructure and legacy technologies, banks until recently have not had the tools to effectively build a modern risk management practice. Luckily, a better alternative exists today based on open-source technologies powered by cloud-native infrastructure. This Modern Risk Management framework enables intraday views, aggregations on demand and an ability to future proof/scale risk management. In this two-part blog series, we demonstrate how to modernize traditional value-at-risk calculation through the use of Delta Lake, Apache SparkTM and MLflow in order to enable a more agile and forward looking approach to risk management.

Cloud computing has fundamentally changed how companies operate – users are no longer subject to the restrictions of on-premises hardware deployments such as physical limits of resources and onerous environment upgrade processes. With the convenience and flexibility of cloud services comes challenges on how to properly monitor how your users utilize these conveniently available resources. Failure to do so could result in problematic and costly anti-patterns (with both cloud provider core resources and a PaaS like Databricks). Databricks is cloud-native by design and thus tightly coupled with the public cloud providers, such as Microsoft and Amazon Web Services, fully taking advantage of this new paradigm, and the audit logs capability provides administrators a centralized way to understand and govern activity happening on the platform. Administrators could use Databricks audit logs to monitor patterns like the number of clusters or jobs in a given day, the users who performed those actions, and any users who were denied authorization into the workspace.

With Netflix CEO Reed Hastings doing a mea-culpa unlike many (if any) seen before, his company has actually apologized by announcing a new company, Qwikster. The company will be a sister company of Netflix with Netflix retaining the streaming of movies component and Qwikster taking on the physical DVD distribution business. The nice addition for the larger company is that Qwikster will also offer video games for Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3.
We won’t mention how the new company name harkens other Xsters that are now out of business. The whole chain of events is just bizarre and it seems to not be done yet. Hastings and his team set up this well-known brand in Netflix and not only have made a complete name change for its once core service, they have made life even harder for their consumers. While the sites are under the same umbrella company, users will need separate logins for each and the search and list functionalities will not work across both.
There was a huge upheaval regarding the cost hike announced a few weeks ago for both delivery and streaming – causing consumers to stop using the service because of the economy (among other things) and forcing the stock price to take a hit. And the solution is an apology and the announcement that the prices will remain elevated? And now the consumers must fiddle with separate accounts to do what they were once able to do all in one site?
Facebook has used mea-culpas as a business strategy to push the envelope and make changes – always knowing they can retreat if they cause a stir. Have the rest of the new media players decided that they can follow suit and offer complete business changes affecting the consumers and stock holders? Was any thought put into this? The added costs for delivery of physical and streaming and the finance issues those cause are understandable. This should probably have taken more time to roll out. At least Coca-Cola reverted back to the original formula when New Coke was bashed – there certainly has got to be a case study there regarding how important the thoughts of your consumers are.
This certainly brings Groveling to the extreme and not matter how much Hastings “messed up” before, the extent of it remains to be seen. He spoke with joy about the continuation of the beloved red envelopes with only the change to the new name. There will probably be a huge amount of people who will be seeing a bunch more red than what is on the envelope…
[UPDATE 10/10/11] And… Its gone. In what has been one of the most public corporate self-mutilations, Netflix announced this morning that they will NOT be spinning off the DVD business as Qwikster. Netflix will remain as one site, one service with both streaming and DVD. They are most definitely hoping everything will blow over. We’ve all done things where we wish we could turn back time to right before it happened so we can stop ourselves from doing it and magically exit from the mess we’ve gotten ourselves into. Mr. Hastings is now looking for a time machine.

House Republicans complain Biden's door-to-door vaccine outreach is 'about power'
‘It’s NONE of the governments business knowing who has or hasn’t been vaccinated,’ tweeted Rep. Andy Biggs.
House Republicans are livid over Biden administration measures aimed at helping Americans get COVID vaccines and are suggesting they amount to tyranny.
On Tuesday, Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene made headlines for suggesting that the administration’s use of door-to-door outreach to encourage people to voluntarily get immunized against the coronavirus was comparable to Nazi “brownshirts.”
“People have a choice, they don’t need your medical brown shirts showing up at their door ordering vaccinations,” she tweeted. “You can’t force people to be part of the human experiment.” She also claimed she was qualified to offer health advice, tweeting:
As a former gym owner, I’ve helped countless people lose weight, gain strength, and be healthy again. The number 1 risk factor for death from #COVID19 is OBESITY, at nearly 80%! … So when Biden’s vaccine police show up at your door to ask you medical questions that invade your HIPAA rights and try to force you take a NON-FDA approved vaccine say this: I’m taking advice from MTG! I’m meal prepping and working out to protect my health from covid.
But it is not just Greene likening a public health campaign to dangerous government oppression.
“Big red flags anytime the federal government is ‘going door to door,'” warned Rep. Pat Fallon (R-TX).
“Wait a minute. So the Trump administration can’t even ask who is a US citizen – while doing the census – but the Biden administration can go door to door to know who isn’t vaccinated? This might just be about power to some people…” tweeted Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH).
“Right. Door-to-door by feds only really contemplated in Constitution for the census… and to protect our rights, eg 3rd & 4th Amendments…” said Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), who also shared an image of the Texas “Come and take it” banner, redesigned with a picture of a hypodermic needle and the defiant phrase “Come and inject it.”
“How about don’t knock on my door. You’re not my parents. You’re the government,” scolded Texas Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw. “Make the vaccine available, and let people be free to choose. Why is that concept so hard for the left?”
“Door to door to vaccinate Americans this year… door to door to confiscate guns next year?” tweeted Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), adding, “The government now wants to go door-to-door to convince you to get an ‘optional’ vaccine.”
“It’s NONE of the governments business knowing who has or hasn’t been vaccinated,” said Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ). He also tweeted, “In 2021, the nine most terrifying words in the English language: ‘I’m from the government, have you been vaccinated yet?'”
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) tweeted, “A lot of people have big government antibodies. Don’t knock on those doors.”
Biden has never suggested any effort to coerce people to get vaccinated against their will. In remarks on Tuesday, he said, “We are continuing to wind down the mass vaccination sites that did so much in the spring to rapidly vaccinate those eager to get their first shot — and their second shot, for that matter, if they needed a second.
“Now we need to go to community by community, neighborhood by neighborhood, and oftentimes, door to door — literally knocking on doors — to get help to the remaining people protected from the virus. Look, equity, equality — it remains at the heart of our responsibility of ensuring that communities that are the hardest hit by the virus have the information and the access to get vaccinated.”
Contrary to GOP lawmakers’ accusations, this is nothing sinister or new.
Since May, the administration has been utilizing what the Department of Health and Human Services calls its COVID-19 “community corps” to provide vaccination options for Americans. In cities such as Detroit, New Orleans, and Philadelphia, these teams have knocked on doors to explain how the shots work, help people arrange to get them, and even sometimes vaccinate people at home.
The latest attacks on the program come as some Republicans in Congress have been discouraging people from getting vaccinated at all.
Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin hosted a news conference on June 28 to warn against side effects of the coronavirus vaccines. Massie tweeted on Saturday, “I’ve been contacted by members of our voluntary military who say they will quit if the COVID vaccine is mandated. I introduced HR 3860 to prohibit any mandatory requirement that a member of the Armed Forces receive a vaccination against COVID-19. It now has 24 sponsors.”
Many have downplayed the severity of the threat of the pandemic. Greene tweeted on Monday, “No one cares about the Delta Variant or any other variant. They are over covid & there is no amount of fear based screaming from the media that will ever force Americans to shut down again.”
As the Delta variant is becoming dominant across the country, GOP-leaning areas, where far fewer people are opting to get vaccinated, are seeing a spike in new coronavirus cases. Democratic-leaning areas with high vaccination rates are seeing much lower numbers of new infections.
According to a Washington Post-ABC News poll released Wednesday, 93% of Democrats say they have already been vaccinated against COVID-19 or plan to be, while just 49% of Republicans do.

The testing of internal combustion engines is an important part of research, development and teaching of the subject. Engine test facilities vary widely. The facilities used for research can have very comprehensive instrumentation, with computer control of the test and computer data acquisition. On the other hand, a more traditional test cell with the engine controlled manually, and the data recorded by the operator, can be better for educational purposes. This second type of test cell is covered in some detail by Greene and Lucas (1969), and is dealt with first in this chapter. The chapter ends with a case study of an advanced engine test system using microprocessor engine control and data acquisition. A final class of test facility not separately discussed here is those used for acceptance tests. Most engines are tested immediately after manufacture to check power output and fuel consumption; the main requirement here is ease of installation.

instruction on implementation of technology.
the Creation of an art collage "Company" a convenient form of sociometric diagnosticheskaia when working with the team. Each participant creates his art-a collage group. On separate pieces of paper draw simplified or the comic image of all group members (family, class, work team, etc.), cuts them and puts it on a separate shared large sheet of A4 paper. br>
All images are recorded on the sheet using double-sided tape or glue.
This technique acts as an alternative form of analysis of relations, the method of sociometric analysis of the status in the team. So leaders, usually placed in the center of a sheet of paper. People with problems in adaptation, do not fit on the sheet or badly hide behind the images of other group members.
the Psychologist receives a lot of information on the portrait view of the participants and the location on the General sheet. An important part of the analysis is the analysis of the possible neighborhood that indicates the priority of this participant in relation to other members of the group.
What is important to note when working with the art collage "Company":
- people, who are the largest (a sign of significance and importance for the team of this person);
- people who are not pictured in the collage, but in reality participate in collective life (a sign of ignoring the person or excluding collective space);- who is depicted with detail, and who symbolically;br>
- analysis of the colours of a portrait;
- cutting the images of certain members of the group;
- comparison of the work of the whole group;
- analysis of a portrait of each of the participants can be performed by drawing the technique of "Self".
analysis Questions techniques:
1. How to create portraits?
2. Whose portrait create was hard and whose easy?
3. Which portrait I liked the most and whose picture failed?
4. Who would you like to change or redraw why?
5. What collages are the group members similar and what?
6. That gave the group perform such a technique?
7. Learned new about each other?
8. What can you conclude?
the Implementation of this technique acts as a psychological cut relations in the team, and reveals the secret, internal communication. To update the relevant partnership mechanisms for the formation of the team for a productive overall performance. It is important to discuss the problematic issues to prevent latent conflicts in.

CHOOSING BETWEEN COSMETIC DENTAL PROCEDURES CAN BE A DAUNTING TASK. At first glance, it’s hard to distinguish between the options. Crowns, bonding, dental veneers--what’s the difference? Though not a one-size-fits-all solution, perhaps the most versatile option is dental veneers. The shortest (though by no means perfect) answer is that crowns are for the major stuff, bonding is for the minor stuff, and veneers are for everything in between.
It’s fairly easy to tell when a crown is the right way to go. ...

“I like her but I don’t know if she can win against Trump.”
That’s the response I get when I tell people about my enthusiasm for Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris and the other women running for the Democratic nomination for president. The strange thing is, I get that response most often from other women. It doesn’t come across as dismissal but rather a weariness borne from Donald Trump and the Republican Party’s constant assault on women over the past three years.
I can understand the trepidation. The women of this country had to watch while the first female major party candidate for the presidency was defeated by a man who bragged about sexual assault on camera. As demoralizing as the evening of November 8th, 2016 was, the following years have been even worse with the continual attacks on women’s reproductive freedoms and the confirmation of accused rapist Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.
Yet, while all this was happening, we saw people coming out in the thousands for the nationwide women’s marches, historic numbers of women running and being elected to congress, and a historic number of women running for the Democratic party nomination.
Despite Trump’s absurd claims to the contrary, Hillary Clinton did win the popular vote by almost 3 million votes. Combined with the 1.5 million people who voted for Jill Stein, the majority of people who voted on the last election day wanted a woman to be president. The fact that we wound up with a male misogynist as president is evidence of the flaws in our political system but that’s a reason to fight harder, not compromise.
I understand the temptation to back a “safer” candidate. Joe Biden would be infinitely better than Trump. But he’s not good enough. Women shouldn’t have to settle anymore. Historically, laws and election results have followed the mood of the country, not the other way around. As long we keep saying a woman cannot be elected president, then she never will be.
Hillary seemed to anticipate this in her concession speech when she said, “to all the little girls who are watching this, never doubt that you are valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity in the world to pursue and achieve your own dreams.”
Dr. Kelly Dittmar, a scholar at the Center for American Women and Politics at the Eagleton Institute of Politics told CNBC, “The value of having multiple women candidates is that they force us to think about women candidates in a way that is not monolithic.”
This allows us to view Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Kirsten Gillibrand, Amy Klobuchar, Tulsi Gabbard and Marianne Williamson, as individual candidates. They can be evaluated based on their policy proposals and experience without having to carry the burden of being The Woman Candidate.
Every female political victory paves the way for a new one, with the women’s wave from last year carrying over into the primaries this year. Yet these victories could not have happened if women had let fear of failure overcome their righteous anger.
We don’t have to exchange Donald Trump’s violent misogyny for Joe Biden’s more palatable chauvinism. Don’t let anyone tell you a woman can’t win. #ImStillWithHer

I would have happily waited ten years for another Ryley Walker album if it showed even half the brilliance of 'Primrose Green' but here is another one already. Walker is one of the most vital songwriters out there today and early indications of this oddly titled opus show that his lush ornate guitar playing is intact along with a sound that could be linked to fellow Chicago types Tortoise and Jim O' Rourke. The world should be excited.

Ryley. How does he find the time? Always in conference with the sheep; always improving our diplomatic relations with chickens. The barnyard bureaucrat made Clint’s favourite record of last year and possibly all time with ‘Primrose Green’, a record that couldn’t decide whether to be dye-in-the-wool folk or lopsided lounge jazz -- and so did both simultaneously. Walker’s style, which has roots in artists like Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison and even weirdo wonderboy Jim O’Rourke, is ultimately winning for always batting a chill innings -- even as it reaches into the weirder, more chancy branches of the ‘70s, his music remains lovely, each song co-ordinated like a cycle that must come back ‘round on itself.
‘Golden Sings That Have Been Sung’ doesn’t make much sense as a title but speaks to Walker’s clairvoyant logic -- just as you trust in him to wind his folk tactics up neatly, his absent-minded lyricism seems strangely coherent in its own world’s way. This record is gentle in its adventuring, with the lightly distorted chord progressions of “A Choir Apart” acting as a cosy spot for his voice to collapse onto. “Funny Thing You Said” is quiet, shoe-shuffling ballad, with complacent piano chords dotted about jazz drums that sound like a pebble skimming water. It’s subtle and unyielding, as if Walker has shaken out his more bombastic moments on ‘Primrose Green’ and left the real quiet for this one.
The quiet’s all you need. Bless those guitar picks: bless “I Will Ask You Twice”. Beyond its barebone guitar figure, Walker wrestles with nimble solos and tiny instrumental flourishes, bringing to mind Sufjan and Kozelek in equal measure. It sounds like he’s trying for some reduction, for a minimalism, but is too aware of the melodies and flourishes available to him. The result is a record of startling additions whose complexities are made humble.
10/10 Richard Customer review, 3rd September 2016
An absolute masterpiece straight from the off. I have to admit that I never picked up 'Primrose Green' and dismissed Ryley Walker as looking like another 70s folk wannabe (so wrong on that count), and I slept on this too long too, so missed the Deep Cuts 2LP version from Norman, but thankfully managed to pick up a copy of that version from my local indie store after hearing the album in full at a friend's place.
Opening tracks on both sides 'The Halfwit In Me', & 'I Will Ask You Twice' both remind me so much of the very best of David Grubbs work which can only be a very good thing, but the standout track has to be 'Sullen Mind' which can also be found in extended form on the Deep Cuts version. I did struggle to think how the band could make such a great 6 and a half minute song into a 40 minute version that keeps you enthralled throughout but they somehow manage it. No mean feat indeed. Even if you can't source the Deep Cuts version anymore it's still a must buy for the regular tracks alone.
I'm not going to say much more than that, as previous reviews have already highlighted the greatness found within this record, except to say that this is the LP Mark Kozelek probably thinks he's making with every new release. If only Mark...
One of the best, if not the best of 2016 so far.
9/10 Stephen Customer review, 20th August 2016
This is a marvellous album. Every bit as good as "Primrose Green". However, "Primrose Green" would be played during the headline set in a smoke-filled, bourbon-drenched club. "Golden Sings That Have Been Sung" is what would get played after closing time when there were only a few regulars left and the band decided to play on. Beautifully mellow, but it's not without its wig-outs, "Sullen Mind" being one such track, whilst "A Choir Apart" and "The Halfwit In Me" showcase the mellow. Brilliant stuff.

Prime Minister Dimitar Kovacevski declared that the average salary, as calculated by the State Statistics Bureau, has reached 500 EUR. This is the mark that was promised by his predecessor Zoran Zaev during the 2015 Colored Revolution.
The achievement comes at a time of runaway inflation, meaning that event with the 30,000 denars which are now the average salary, living standards have likely gone down.
Few believed that we will have an average salary of 30,000 denars. Those who promised this were mocked by the opposition, which is opposed to increasing wages. But despite their frequent obstructions, we did it. During a major economic crisis, we see how important these policies of increasing wages are. This shields our citizens from the large increase in the prices, Kovacevski said.

Scotty ATL comes through today with a low-key banger, featuring fellow Atlanta native B.o.B. Bobby Ray has been very generous with his music as of late, not only giving away his new album Psychadelik Thoughtz for free, but dropping off a few joints since then. Today he takes a backseat to Scotty ATL's jam, "Bust It Open," which is a twerk-ready anthem. The bouncy production comes from Blac Elvis. The record itself will land on Scotty ATL's upcoming project, which is slated for release at the end of the month. Keep your eyes peeled.

Borussia Dortmund attacker André Schürrle will − pending the clarification of further details − play for newly-promoted English Premier League club Fulham for the next two seasons. The loan will end on 30 June 2020.
"We'd like to thank André for his previous efforts and wish him all the very best for his time in London," explained Sporting Director Michael Zorc.
The 2014 World Cup winner featured in 14 of Borussia Dortmund's 17 matches in the second half of last season, starting eight of them. In his last 12 games for the Black & Yellows, he was involved in five goals (one goal, four assists). Between 2016 and 2018, André Schürrle made 52 competitive appearances for BVB in all competitions, scoring on eight occasions.

New rendering of Parcel 10 building from Waterfront Park
Following a Zoning Commission (ZC) hearing earlier this month, the development team behind the second phase of The Wharf has submitted a few design revisions as well as responses to various concerns raised by neighbors and approval bodies.
Design-wise, the massing of the Morris Adjmi Architects-designed office and retail building planned for Parcel 10 has been modified on the 3rd and 4th floors, with the corner of the building lopped off to provide more separation from it and the newly-delivered condo building at 525 Water.

In response to the Office of Planning’s concerns about shade for the steps on the M Street Landing, five trees have been added to the site plan for this open space and a planted wall has been added to the top of the steps. There is also now a conceptual rendering for a rooftop restaurant and bar atop the ODA-designed apartment-and-hotel building planned on Parcel 8; no operator for the hotel or rooftop space has yet been identified.
A conceptual rendering of the penthouse restaurant/bar at Parcel 8
While no specific signage has been shown, the development team did offer some guidelines, including the commitment to not incorporate digital signage or signage with flickering or moving lights. The developers also clarified that while the terrace atop Water Building 2 is intended to be completely open year-round, a future tenant may opt to utilize sun- and/or windscreens as needed.
A rendering of Water Building 1 as seen from Parcel 6 and 7
In response to DC for Reasonable Development’s assertions that The Wharf will lead to displacement of nearby residents, the developers cited the net gain in multifamily residences that the project will provide, including market rate units, workforce housing capped for households earning 100 and 120 percent of median family income (MFI), and affordable housing for households earning 30, 50, 60 and 80 percent of MFI.
At 16.2 percent of the total residential units, the affordable housing in the development exceeds the typical minimum required by inclusionary zoning. The developers are also presenting two options of subsidy and amenity packages that will benefit existing slipholders on the marina, furthering the commitment not to displace those slipholders during construction and to ensure rents remain affordable.
The second phase of The Wharf is currently under review for second-stage planned-unit development (PUD) approval and approval of a modification of consequence by zoning officials and will join the recently-delivered restaurants, residences, retail and amenities along the southwest waterfront. The PUD would deliver two SHoP Architects-designed office buildings with ground-floor retail on Parcels 6 and 7; 235 rental apartments and 116 hotel rooms atop 26,000 square feet of retail on Parcel 8; 82 condos over 16,000 square feet of retail in a building designed by Rafael Vinoly Architects on Parcel 9; the office-and-retail building on Parcel 10; three buildings containing maritime, retail and dining services along the pier; and open spaces including the M Street Landing, the Grove, and the completed Marina.

Our onions are starting to bulb up now. Fingers crossed they carry on bulbing up to a good size before they stop growing. However, it probably won’t be that long before they stop throwing up new leaves at which point they won’t swell any more. On that basis, we are giving them a little bit of nitrogen liquid feed every few days to encourage them to bulb up a bit faster.
Our other container crops are also growing along well, and are particularly enjoying the warmer weather. It’s really important to make sure you check on the plants regularly on hot, sunny days though as the compost in the pots can dry out very quickly. As we learnt with the turnips the other day, which completely flopped down by the end of the day! 😦
Hopefully it won’t be long before we get some beetroot, radishes, salad leaves, turnips, carrots and beet leaves.
Our first planting of container courgettes are also almost there! They’re not growing at their quickest pace just yet, but it shouldn’t be too long until they’re in full swing. In the meantime, we’re letting the courgettes grow to a relatively decent size and then taking them off the plant to allow it to develop further and in turn become more capable of growing full sized courgettes!
As seems to happen every year, we had an abundance of female flowers for a start again this year, and no male flowers. Unfortunately this means that the courgettes (which are attached to female flowers) won’t get pollinated and so won’t get to full size. Therefore, the very early courgettes were just cut off carefully to prevent the plant ploughing any more energy into a fruit that wasn’t going to fully form.
We then have an update on our Asian vegetables we’re trying this year, pak choi and chop suey greens. We thought we were going to have to pot the pak choi up further, but they seem to be doing alright in their 3″ pots at the moment and are starting to form heads. We’ll keep an eye on them to see if they need to be potted up over the next couple of weeks of whether we think they’ll grow to maturity in their current pots.
The chop suey greens probably are going to need to be potted up though. In fact, we’re not sure whether we’ve left them a bit long in their current cell trays as they look like they might be going to seed. We’ll see what they’re saying over the weekend and make a decision on potting up.

Ask yourself this question: Will the readers of this publication think this is interesting, entertaining, informative or useful? Self-interested, veiled attempts at promoting your business will fall flat. The media does not care about your company’s success unless their readers care about it. The media does not care about your new product unless you can help them understand how their readers are longing to know about the problems it solves. The following is a list of topics that can help you get a reporter’s attention. If you can find a way to position your potential story ideas using one of these vehicles, you will have a better chance of success.
Have Real News There is nothing that gets the media’s attention like news. Now, what you think is news may not actually be newsworthy, but if you have won a significant contract or licensed a new technology you may indeed have a story that provides a reporter with a news angle. Be First Everyone seems fascinated with things that are first: the first company to feature a technology, the first company to do a certain type of project, the first company in the area to win a national award, etc. Of course, there are ways to be a new kind of first. The first woman- or minority-owned business in your industry to do something of note is also a first.
Be Unique Sometimes you can receive positive publicity by simply doing or offering something that is unique. An unheard-of guarantee, service technicians in tuxedos, balloon telegrams for marketing are all examples of unique practices. Local Angles on National Stories If some aspect of your business is making national headlines, you may be able to weigh in with the local media on a local angle of the story. Local news reporters often prefer to quote local sources even when they are covering a national story. Has some legislation recently passed that impacts your industry? Has a major lawsuit been settled? Is a new product, service, or innovation receiving coverage? It is critical that you watch the national news trends to stay on top of these opportunities. Ties to a Trend Your association and industry publications often report on industry and marketing trends. Reporters love to get a jump on a coming trend. You can put yourself in the middle of a story by simply pointing out something that may be happening in other parts of the country that ties your company or product to a recognized trend. Overcoming Adversity Everyone loves a story with a great ending. If you personally or your firm has overcome some adversity, this may be a great source for a story.
People Stories Promotions, new hires, awards, board appointments, wedding, births, and all other manner of story that involves people in your firm and what they do on and off the job can be a good source for story ideas. Maybe your company’s softball team hasn’t won or lost a game in 10 years. Maybe your firm has repaired eight houses for a charitable organization this year. Perhaps your firm has college tuition reimbursement program that is far better than most, and you have four new college graduates at the firm to prove it. Solving a Common Problem If you have discovered a unique way to solve a problem that your target market has or that impacts other firms in your same industry, you may have a story idea. Business publications in particular are always on the look out for innovative business practices. Don’t just think in terms of some solution to a client need. Maybe you’ve discovered a successful way to attract prospective employees. These stories will often be read by potential clients and really help tell how your firm is different. In addition, it is easy to show how these types of stories can benefit the readership of a publication without appearing too self-serving.

Dust removal performance in counter airflow shear rotating packed bed
A new type of rotating packed bed (RPB), counter airflow shear rotating packed bed (CAS-RPB), was proposed to solve the problem of increasingly serious air pollution. To meet the ultra-low emission (ULE) standard (the outlet particle concentration less than 5 mg Nm(-3)) in a cost-effective way, various operation conditions were conducted in the counter-rotating flow CAS-RPB and the co-rotating flow CAS-RPB, including high gravity factor (beta), gas velocity (v(g)), ratio of liquid to gas (L/G), liquid surface tension (sigma) and liquid viscosity (mu). Besides, empirical correlations for the outlet particle concentrations were also established both in the counter-rotating flow CAS-RPB and the co-rotating flow CAS-RPB. Moreover, the dust removal performance in CAS-RPB was also compared with other types of RPB at the similar operation conditions to further illustrate its superior performance. The promising results were indicated that the CAS-RPB, as a new technology for gas advanced purification, showed excellent performance in much lower outlet particle concentration.

What: Big-screen adaptation of Phillippa Gregory’s historical novel, which looks at the behind-the-scenes manoeuvrings that led to the execution of Henry VIII’s most short-lived wife. It’s a bitter tale of a monarch enjoying the conjugal right to rape, with Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson as Anne and Mary respectively. Eric Bana gives an interestingly alternative reading to the usually jolly monster of legend.
Why:The Other Boleyn Girl did the rounds last spring, but this is another chance to enjoy those incredibly lustrous Sandy Powell-designed costumes on the big screen. It’s a terrific story, too, with Johansson doing her usual startled-bush-baby routine. Plus, there’s the significant Henry VIII connection with Worcester: the fact that his older brother, Arthur, is buried in the city’s cathedral is probably what saved it from the Reformation’s wrecking ball.
