Interest In Siwelele Defender Mounts
Bloemfontein Celtic’s Alfred Ndengane is being tracked by Cape Town City.
News reaching the Siya crew is that the interest in Bloemfontein Celtic midfielder-cum-defender, Alfred Ndengane, is escalating as he approaches the final 18 months of his contract.
Ndengane had been linked with a move to Orlando Pirates ahead of the 2017/18 season, however, the Soweto giants landed up signing his teammate, Musa Nyatama, instead.
Now, as the 30-year-old enters into the last 18 months of his contract, it seems as though clubs are keeping a close eye on his situation. According to sources in the know, Cape Town City are keeping close tabs on the player’s situation.
“Cape Town City is interested in Alfred Ndengane. The club would like to bring the player back home in Cape Town,” said the source.
Ndengane will see his contract with Siwelele expire at the end of the 2018/19 season and while the club is believed to be keen on extending his stay, they have not agreed to a new deal as yet.
Should the player opt to not sign a new deal, he will be at liberty to sign a pre-contract elsewhere in just over one year.

Internet dating vs real life dating
But the fear that online dating is changing us, collectively, that it's creating unhealthy habits and preferences that aren't in our best interests, is being driven more by paranoia than it is by actual facts.
"There are a lot of theories out there about how online dating is bad for us," Michael Rosenfeld, a sociologist at Stanford who has been conducting a long-running study of online dating, told me the other day.
Simply considered as online meeting people, it makes a ton of sense.
I’ve already expressed my argument for why in two posts: one on how critical it is to find the right life partner and how seriously we should take that quest, and another on why going to bars is a terrible life experience.
Over 40 million Americans have given online dating a try, and over a of the American couples married between 20 met online.
The first prominent online dating site was Match.com, which launched in 1995.
Is it creating a new reality in which people actively avoid real-life interactions?
Of course, others have worried about these sorts of questions before.
So in 2030, I think we’ll be somewhere very different, and I think today’s nine-year-olds will have really incredible ways of finding love when they’re 25.(For gay couples, it's more like two out of every three).The apps have been surprisingly successful -- and in ways many people would not expect."And mostly they're pretty unfounded." Rosenfeld, who has been keeping tabs on the dating lives of more than 3,000 people, has gleaned many insights about the growing role of apps like Tinder.They are important today — roughly one of every four straight couples now meet on the Internet.
Online is a much better way to accomplish that too.

The absorption of water from a slurry into an absorbent substrate is analysed using Sharp Front theory. The analysis describes the relationship between the sorptivity S of the substrate, the desorptivity R of the slurry and the transfer sorptivity A between slurry and substrate, and leads to the relationship 1/A2 ≤ 1/R2 + 1/S2. Experimental data are presented which validate this equation for the practically important case of the absorption of water from soft mortar mixes by fired clay bricks. A unique feature of the experimental work is the measurement of the desorptivity of the mortars at a pressure equal to the wetting front capillary pressure of the clay brick substrate. Analysis of the experimental data also enables, for the first time, the calculation of the capillary potential at the slurry/substrate interface. The analysis has relevance to many aspects of ceramic and mineral processing, industrial filtration and construction engineering.

LED and 3D projectors are down, while bang-for-the-buck projectors increased their market share.
Projector sales are down when compared to the fourth quarter of last year – something to be expected – but are up a full 11 percent from the same quarter in 2011. It’s not the hugely expensive section of the market that’s driving this, but low and mid priced projectors.
720p projectors in general were up, now holding 8.49 percent of the market share. Last year they accounted for just 5.66 percent. 1080p projectors with traditional lamps still own the market, with LED losing traction. LCoS tech gained a six percent share of the market.
“The reality is that consumers can buy a whole lotta projector below $10,000 as well as below $5,000,” says Quixel Research principal researcher Terry Pratt. “It is up to manufacturers to work with their retailers to offer a story to keep the high end of the market healthy.”

The storyline is very predictable. But I did not watch this film hoping for deep insights or for political reasons. The 60's music in the film is fun and carefree and not serious. Like most coming of age movies "Besos" tends to glamorize and hype teen rebellion. I remember the late 60's as being much more conservative. Most college students were much more serious. But then this is like many such stories that are more about "what I wish I had done and said". I was not in Spain in the 60's, but I was in the US and Mexico and there were characters like those in the film. Life was much more spontaneous because we were all more spontaneous when we were younger. The music is a 10, the story is a 5. I cannot comment on Franco's Spain but others who were there tell me it was harsh. Mexico's government was also harsh and corrupt at the time(and still is-a revolution?), and in the US for certain groups of society it was also harsh and corrupt(Mississippi Burning, Harvest of Shame).

A Fun Coming of Age Film, The Music will take you Way Back
Decent though uneven movie about some Medicine students and their lovely adventures during the sixties
Three young students (Eloy Azorín, Roberto Hoyas , Iñaki Font) are studying Medicine at the University of Cadiz when there are rebellion and protests against the expulsion of notorious professors called Tierno Galvan , Aranguren and Garcia Calvo . Meanwhile , they share a small house along with some call-girls (Emma Suarez , Chusa Barbero) working at a nearby club . The main protagonist protagonist results to be Ramon (Eloy Azorin) , a religious boy who has a pregnant girlfriend (Pilar Lopez Ayala) but falls in love for a showgirl named Vicky (Emma Suarez) .
This is an agreeable as well as uneven comedy in less than 100 minutes of length and yet with an air of naturalness and credibility rarely match . The film moves in fits and starts most of which would be desirable , with more traps the viewer resists any kind, and some moments of enjoyment and others quite a few embarrassing . It tends to glamorize the 60s with its music , spectacles , parties , dances and youth riot . Here the late 60's seems to be much more amusing and fun than it really happened ; in fact , it was a conservative and repressed society . The flick gives a short description about lives of young people under the focus of three Medicine students . There are brief moments of drama , but predominates comedy and coming-of-age situations , including some love scenes ; above all, the biggest problem with the film is an aimless wandering in its central part that makes the viewer to wander and for a few moments longer interested in a story that does not seem to know where to go until the ending . The main cast is pretty well and support cast is frankly good such as Joaquín Climent as Governor , Ana Wagener as Landlady and special mention to a unknown Luis Tosar as El Bombilla .
Colorful and glowing cinematography by Hans Burmann which heightens the ambiance, being shot on location in Cadiz . Burmann is deemed to be one of the best Spanish cameraman ; Hans has photographed notorious films such as Tesis , Abre Los Ojos , Guantanamera , Paris Tombuctu and various pictures directed by Jaime Chavarri . Evocative as well as emotive musical score by Carles Cases (Dagon , Caricias , Camaron , Año de Diluvio) and with plenty of known songs from the 60s . The motion picture produced and written by Manolo Matji was decently directed Jaime Chavarri , though with no originality . His first professional movie was ¨Los Viajes Escolares¨ (1974), with an autobiographical touch but it was misunderstood by most critics . Later he worked with the producers 'Elías Querejeta' in prestigious documentary titled ¨El Desencanto¨ (1976)) and Alfredo Matas in a successful costumer titled ¨Bearn¨ (1983), adapted from the novel by Llorenç Vilallong a. With the last mentioned film he also had success in terms of the numbers who saw the film . He also directed intense dramas such as ¨Dedicatoria¨ and ¨A un Dios Desconocido¨ . To change the genre he also filmed the musical, ¨Las Cosas del Querer¨ (1989) , being followed by ¨Cosas Del Querer 2¨ (1995) , along with a Tango film as ¨Tangos Are for Two¨ . And adapted from the theatre play by Fernando Fernán Gómez in his most popular film titled ¨Bicicletas Son Para Verano¨ . His last picture was a biography about ¨Camarón¨ (2005) .
Tainted and abused past, this film goes astray
With an excellent cast of young actors now becoming famous everywhere, and the expertise of a much-experienced Jaime Chávarri, one would expect something less trite and something which did not fall back on the overly-used scapegoat of the dying years of the Franco Regime. It should also be expected that the story be somewhat more faithful to the ambience of the period in question - the mid sixties - and the behavioural context of that time in general and in Cádiz in particular. However, this little adventure embarks on a spree which, I suppose, might be called a comedy, but really only sparks off triviality and a certain feeling of having been betrayed somewhere.
I was 25 when I arrived in Spain, just five years later than the story being told in this film, precisely in a small city in the provinces. In no way could I compare the situations being enacted by those wonderfully fortunate people in the film, with what in effect was being lived by the real young people at that time. Life was far more serious than as painted in this film.
The acting is good - you have some of the best actors of Spain today in `Besos para Todos'. But my complaint stands firm: sorry, Sr. Chávarri, you have stepped out of line here, you have mixed up reality and fantasy and clothed it as a comedy.
If on the other hand you only want a film depicting young people about to set off on amorous adventures, without any hint of historical background, you might well enjoy this film.
I was only aggravated, annoyed. Perhaps it is just my peculiar attitude and memories of those `early years', tainted by parochial provincialism immersed in the shadows of a worn out tottering totalitarianism being assaulted by quasi-mystical songs from Joan Manuel Serrat.

Targeting colorectal cancer stem cells using curcumin and curcumin analogues: insights into the mechanism of the therapeutic efficacy.
Cancer Cell Int. 2015 ;15:96. Epub 2015 Oct 9. PMID: 26457069
Thamil Selvee Ramasamy
Colorectal cancer is one of the commonest cancers in the world and it is also a common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Despite advanced treatment strategies, the disease is rarely cured completely due to recurrence. Evidence shows that this is due to a small population of cells, called cancer stem cells (CSCs), in the tumour mass that have the self-renewal and differentiation potential to give rise to a new tumour population. Many pre-clinical and clinical studies have used curcumin and its analogues as anti-cancer agents in various types of cancer, including colorectal cancer. Intriguingly, curcumin and its analogues have also recently been shown to be effective in lowering tumour recurrence by targeting the CSC population, hence inhibiting tumour growth. In this review, we highlight the efficacy of curcumin and its analogues in targeting colorectal CSC and also the underlying molecular mechanism involved. Curcumin, in the presence or absence of other anti-cancer agents, has been shown to reduce the size of tumour mass and growth in both in vivo and in vitro studies by affecting many intracellular events that are associated with cancer progression and CSC formation. An insight into the molecular mechanism has unraveled the mode of action via which curcumin could affect the key regulators in CSC, importantly; (1) the signaling pathways, including Wnt/β-catenin, Sonic Hedgehog, Notch and PI3K/Akt/mTOR, (2) microRNA and (3) the epithelial-mesenchymal transition at multiple levels. Therefore, curcumin could play a role as chemosensitiser whereby the colorectal CSCs are now sensitised towards the anti-cancer therapy, therefore, combination therapyusing anti-cancer agent with curcumin could be much more effective than treatment using a single cancer agent. This potential treatment modality can be further developed by employing an effective delivery system using a nanotechnology based approach to treat colorectal cancer.

Wind power captures the natural wind in our atmosphere and converts it into mechanical energy, then into electricity. Wind power started with windmills, which pumped water, ground grain and did other work. Today’s wind turbine typically has three blades, sit atop a steel tower and range in height from 35 feet to over 300 feet tall.Watch Energy 101: Wind Turbines
Airfoil – The cross section profile of the leeward side of a wind generator blade, designed to provide low drag and good lift. Also found on an airplane wing.
Anemometer – An instrument used to measure the velocity or speed of the wind.
Blades – The flat panels on a wind turbine that are connected to a center shaft that converts the push of the wind into a circular motion in a wind turbine.
Braking System – A device to slow a wind turbine’s shaft speed down to safe levels (electrically or mechanically).
Cut-in Speed – The wind speed at which the turbine blades begin to rotate and produce electricity, typically around 10 miles per hour.
Cut-out Speed – The wind speed at which some wind turbines automatically stop the blades from turning and rotates out of the wind to avoid damage to the turbine, typically around 55 to 65 miles per hour.
Furling – The act of a wind generator yawing out of the wind, either horizontally or vertically, to protect itself from high wind speeds.
Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) – A wind turbine design in which the shaft (axis of rotation) is parallel to the ground and the blades are perpendicular to the ground.
Hub – The central part of the wind turbine, which supports the turbine blades on the outside and connects to the low-speed rotor shaft inside the nacelle.
Hub Height – Measuring from the ground, the tower height of the hub or central part of a horizontal axis wind turbine.
MET Tower – A tower with a group of instruments (including anemometers and wind vanes) attached that collectively measure various meteorological parameters such as wind speed, wind direction and temperature at various heights above the ground.
Nacelle – The structure at the top of the wind turbine tower just behind (or, in some cases, in front of) the wind turbine blades. It houses the key components of the wind turbine, including the rotor shaft, gearbox and generator.
Power Curve – A graphic displaying the instantaneous power output of a specific turbine design at various wind speeds; used with the wind resource data to determine the potential for electricity generation at a project site.
Production Tax Credit (PTC) – A provision included in the Energy Policy Act of 1992; a commercial tax credit that applies to wholesale electrical generators of wind energy facilities based on the amount of energy generated.
Rated Wind Speed – The wind speed at which a wind turbine reaches its nameplate-rated level of power production. For most small wind turbines, this is around 30 to 35 miles per hour.
Start-up Speed – The wind speed at which a wind turbine rotor starts to rotate. The turbine does not necessarily produce any power until the wind reaches cut-in speed.
Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) – A wind generator design in which the rotating shaft (axis of rotation) is perpendicular to the ground and the cups or blades rotate parallel to the ground.
Wind Power Class – A system designed to rate the quality of the wind resource in an area, based on the average annual wind speed. The scale ranges from 1 to 7 with 1 being the poorest wind energy resources and 7 representing exceptional wind energy resources.
Wind Resource Assessment – The process of characterizing the wind resource and its energy potential for a site of geographical area.
Wind Rose – A circular plot used to portray certain characteristics about wind speed and direction observed at a monitoring location.
Wind Shear – A term and calculation used to describe how wind speed increases with height above the surface of the earth. The degree of wind shear is a factor of the complexity of the terrain as well as the actual heights measured. Wind shear increases as friction between the wind and the ground becomes greater. Wind shear is not a measure of the wind speed at a site.
Wind Vane – A device used to measure wind direction.
Yaw – The rotation of a horizontal axis wind turbine about its tower or vertical axis.

This contact temperature sensor with 1-Wire / DS18B20 SD 145 digital output is intended for contact surface temperature measurement. The sensors are supplied with an attachment strap and are suitable for measuring the temperature in pipelines. The sensitive element itself is isolated from the environment. Temperature sensors are easy to install thanks to the unique "S-head" design
The sensors consist of a plastic head and a metal measuring box placed in a protective plastic cover made of POLYAMIDE where the detection element (sensor) for measuring the temperature is placed. In the head, there is a terminal block with a converter.
SD 145 - DS18B20 digital temperature sensor, communication via 1-Wire bus
The operating temperature range of the sensors is defined in the table of technical parameters of the different sensor versions. The sensors respond to IP 65 input protection according to EN 60529, as modified. To ensure high accuracy of the measurements, it is recommended to clean the contact surface with a file and use a heat-conducting paste between the measured surface and the metal housing of the sensor.
The sensors are designed to operate in a chemically non-aggressive environment, the use must be chosen according to the temperature and the chemical resistance of the sensor head.

If you’re concerned about privacy, building your own firearm is a smart choice. When it’s just you and your garage, there’s no need for paperwork, waiting periods, or background checks. That’s where JSD Supply’s gunsmith tool kits come in. We ship our 80 lower kits with jigs directly to your door, so you can start customizing your gun right away.
Your Local and State Laws
Dig deep into your local and state laws for gun ownership. Your kit is of no use to you if you can’t assemble the gun in your state or you don’t follow the specific requirements to do so.
For example, in California, while you can purchase an 80% lower receiver, you must apply for and
engrave a serial number on your gun before you complete it. This means a series of steps including filling out a Personal Firearms Eligibility Check, submitting that application, registering with the California Firearms Application Reporting System, completing a serial number application form, and waiting for your serial number to arrive. Gotta love the smell of freedom in the morning.
This sounds like a lot of steps for residents of The Golden State; however, it’s better to complete them and have the AR-15 you built from your gunsmith tool kit be legal instead of facing difficulties down the road.
Fortunately, most other states haven’t made such requirements, so your privacy remains protected, though again, it is vital to check your area’s specific laws before making a purchase.
What Type of Gun You Want to Build
Once you’ve ascertained the legality of building your own gun in your area, decide what type of firearm you want to build. JSD Supply has a wide variety of 80 lower kits with jigs you can choose from, whether you want an
AR-10, AR-15, or a even Glock-compatible kit.
If you want to use your gun primarily for hunting, a
DIY hunting rifle may be perfect for you. Or perhaps you’re a survivalist, so a fully customized gun is ideal for your needs. Whatever your goal is in purchasing a gunsmith tool kit, ensure you’re choosing the correct gun to match.
Invest in a Quality Kit
After you’ve figured out the legal aspects and decided what type of gun you want, look for a respectable company with quality components. Look for billeted 7075 anodized aluminum and high-strength, nylon-based polymer. Finding parts made in the USA is even better. When looking at
jigs, look for high-quality steel and inclusion of drill bits.
Order Your 80 Lower Kit with Jig
JSD Supply has been the home of quality gun parts and kits for years. We’re your trusted source for the parts and gunsmith tool kits you need to design and customize your personal firearm in the privacy of your own home.

Sometime ago I started a thread about a 9mm gun for informal shooting at steel plates at 25 yards. At the end I bought a Beretta M9. Although the Beretta is a very nice gun, it's not very well suited for 25 yard plates due to the trigger and the sights. I do much better with my Colt 1911 .45 (but the .45 ammo prices are killing me). The trigger and the sights on the Beretta can be worked on but I would like to leave the Beretta as is, because it is a very good looking gun that is a very close copy of what our guys carry in the military. I'm considering getting a 1911 in 9mm and the only ones on the market now that are new: are Kimber and Springfield (I have not seen STI guns in my area).Of the two guns, the Kimber 9mm and the Springfield 9mm which one would you pick for 25 yard steel plates?


ST. CLOUD, Minn. - Investigators are trying to make an identification after a man discovered a body while kayaking down the Mississippi River.
The kayaker was out Wednesday night around 8:30 p.m. when he saw the body on the west bank of the river near the St. Cloud Hospital south parking ramp.
Deputies say the body, a man, about 5-foot-6-inches inches tall and around 150 pounds, was lying face down in the water and had been there for some time.
Investigators are working to identify the body.
The man was wearing a white or gray T-shirt, tan jean shorts with stitching on back pockets, and black socks. The body had no identifying marks or tattoos, but appears to be a Caucasian or Native American man.
There was a small campsite near where the man's body was found, but it's not clear if it belonged to him.
Anyone with information on the case is asked to call 320-251-4240 and ask to speak to the on-call investigator.


text: Are dictionaries really an ultimate source of 'correct' language? "Dictionaries as Cultural Products" is the first manuscript of such volume to deal with intentional and unintentional cultural biases and limitations in lexicography. It offers both, a theoretical exploration of word meaning and a practical perspective on dictionaries in use. Although originally written as a thesis for a Master’s degree in English linguistics, this revised version addresses a much broader range of readers. This book might attract not only professional linguists, but also students and teachers of English as a foreign language, as well as native speakers of English interested in explaining words through other words. In addition, this book would provide some helpful guidelines for dictionary-making in various spheres of business and education.

I have an air cooled single cylinder motorcycle with a bogging down(feels like something is pulling back on the bike making it struggle) problem on acceleration. After many many months of having it I can now pin point the circumstances in which it happens.
- It is throttle position specific (roughly 1/4, after this it runs fine).
- It only happens when the engine is up to operating temp (on a cold engine it is fine(first 5mins of riding are problem free))
- Trying to reset the ecm doesn't work (hold throttle 100% open then let go( almost as if the ecm isn't reading it WOT from the tps)
- It doesn't matter what speed I'm going or what the rpm's are at 1/4 throttle it happens
The only sensors on the bike are:
- Throttle position sensor (tested with multimeter and there is no spikes or jumps in voltage when slowly turning throtle, nice and smooth as it should be)
- Intake air temperature (seems to be fine) Engine oil temperature (seems to be fine)
- O2 sensor (not tested)
- Idle air control Valve( ok not a sensor but still pluged in haha)
I have ran redex through multiple times to clean the injectors, tried different petrol and I'm ruling out fuel pressure due to the fact that surely after 1/4 throttle the demands should be higher and effects of bogging be even worse.
I have also tried air intake cleaner(the spray kind) to de-coke the throttkle blade.
The valves are in spec.
Changing the air filter and spark plug makes no difference.
All this happens underload but I tested in neutral (held the throttle at demon position if you will) and I swore I heard a few pops(backfires) although I can't be 100%(I'd say im 80% certain) certain due to the exhaust noise.
Finally the are no DTC's CEL's being thrown.
What else can I check? Im all out of ideas now.
Cheers and thank you if you made it this far
The day after this post I decided to go for a ride with the tps unplugged and as expected there was a delay between throttle twist and acceleration, but the 1/4 throttle bog wasn't there.

After spending almost three decades as the world’s sole superpower, the United States of America has finally reached the point where its decline begins. The US economic, military, and political prowess is being rivaled by Russia and China. Abdul Majeed, a political researcher and former member of the Youth Parliament of Pakistan, notes that America’s share in the world economy has fallen from 40% in 1960 to 24% in 2019. Whereas, China’s share is increasing due to the massive infrastructure projects it has undertaken in Asia and Africa. Similar to its economic decline, the US has fallen behind Russia and China in technological development, and the 5G and space race. The author argues that the superpower is no longer the ideal democratic state. Not only has it been marked as a flawed democracy for the fifth consecutive year, but it has also lost its ability to militarily protect its allies, and as Russia and China develop, so do the threats to the US hegemony.
Abdul Majeed is a political researcher with special interests in international relations and economics. A businessman by profession, he derives his understanding of political affairs from his active public life experiences as a former member of the Youth Parliament of Pakistan, former International Representative of JLC Student Union, former Postgraduate Executive of the Warwick Student Union, and as the former Head of Punjab for Rotaract (Youth Wing of Rotary International).

World Wide (Conversation) – All eyes will turn to Rome between 21-24 February, when senior church clerics across the world meet to discuss how to handle the widening sexual abuse crisis in the Catholic Church. Until recently, this has been focused on the abuse of children. But now Pope Francis has admitted – for the first time – sexual abuse by priests against religious women exists and must be acknowledged.
And Catholic women are speaking out, under the #NunsToo hashtag.
Twenty-five years ago, Irish nun, Maura O’Donohue prepared an extensive report for the Vatican on the abuse of nuns internationally by priests. Her report was based on information supplied by priests, doctors and others, and she had been assured records existed for several of the incidents. But the report was covered up.
Here’s my #hero the Irish woman who exposed abuse of nuns by priests 25 years ago Maura #ODonohue. Would the Roman Curia have acted appropriately 25 years ago, many nuns would not have had to suffer, myself included. #Nunstoo https://t.co/45VenRWFBI
— Doris Reisinger (Wagner) (@ReisingerWagner) February 10, 2019
In late November, influenced by the success of the #MeToo movement, a group of women theologians convened a meeting – called Voices of Change – in Rome to share their stories of sexual harassment and abuse at the hands of male clerics, and decry the patriarchy of the Catholic hierarchy.
Doris Wagner, a German theologian, recalled her terror as a young woman in a mixed-gender religious order. A superior of the order entered her room one night and raped her. She knew if she were to report this, she would be told it was her fault, so she kept quiet. Years later, she did tell her superior, who did exactly as she feared – she blamed her, and asked if she had used contraceptives.
Wagner said she was later groomed by priest Hermann Geissler. He worked in the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith, the Vatican organisation that deals with complaints of child sexual abuse. This led to a series of sexual assaults in the confessional, which she reported.
Geissler was found to have acted inappropriately but was not removed from his job, despite working on child sex abuse cases. He was publicly outed and resigned only after Wagner disclosed the story at the meeting in Rome last year. But the priest who committed the rape is still ordained and living in a religious community with young women.
Wagner also read from a report that estimated up to 30% of Catholic sisters had been sexually abused and many more are at risk of clerical sexual abuse.
In Australia, reports suggest the number of Catholic women abused by priests vastly outnumber the survivors of child sexual abuse uncovered by the royal commission into the issue. These women and men often came from strict religious families, and had little experience of the world or sexual matters.
As this group finds its voice and begins to speak out, the leadership of the Church will face another crisis of legitimacy and round of public inquiries.
It is clear the sexual abuse of women, children and vulnerable adults has been normalised in Catholic clerical culture. Abuse is exercised at every level of ministry, from parish priest to the most senior clerics. Perpetrators are protected and victims silenced. This is aided by a culture of clerical entitlement and opportunity.
The child sex abuse royal commission’s final report provided ample evidence of this. It states:
Few survivors of child sexual abuse that occurred before the 1990s described receiving any formal response from the relevant Catholic Church authority when they reported the abuse. Instead, they were often disbelieved, ignored or punished, and in some cases were further abused.
Recently, a number of international cases have seen very senior Catholic clerics accused of protecting perpetrators of child sexual abuse. A Philadelphia Grand Jury recently found Church leaders protected more than 300 priest perpetrators. Australia’s royal commission also noted:
… the avoidance of public scandal, the maintenance of the reputation of the Catholic Church and loyalty to priests… largely determined the responses of Catholic Church authorities when allegations of child sexual abuse arose… Complaints of child sexual abuse were not reported to police or other civil authorities…
There are also cases of high-level clerical sexual abusers, including serial offender US Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, who is now being defrocked, and Argentian bishop Gustavo Zanchetta, who has been accused of sexual misconduct with young seminarians. Pope Francis’ response was to remove Zanchetta from Argentina and promote him to a position of power in the Vatican’s finance office.
Francis has not adequately handled a number of crises. This includes last year, when he defended a Chilean bishop who had covered up cases of child sexual abuse. As US feminist theologian Mary Hunt says, “you can’t make this stuff up”.
Little information has been provided about the agenda for the upcoming, so-called “protection of minors in the Church” meeting in late February. But it’s clear there will be no survivors, lay women or men in attendance – just the bishops, senior Vatican officials and Pope Francis.
This is the cohort who has protected priest perpetrators, covered up hundreds of cases, failed to report criminal activity to the police, blamed victims and promoted the guilty to positions of power. It is clear the answers to this catastrophic problem will not come from Church leaders. Instead, it is victims, survivors, lay people and experts in institutional change that need to be leading the dialogue, and enacting change. And one such group may be the Voices of Faith.

The expansion vessel
When we talked about storage tanks in thermal plants we meant of course open tanks. Storage tanks also function as “expansion vessels”. The expansion tank has a dual function: thermal and hydraulic. From a thermal point of view its function is to allow water, which is an incompressible fluid, to expand or contract. In order for this to be possible it is necessary for the fluid to be in contact with a gas that can compensate for the expansions and contractions of the fluid. There are three possible configurations: open atmosphere vessel; closed vessel, containing water and air (or other inert gas) without any for of separation (selfpressurization or pressurization with air or gas that is inserted from the outside); closed vessel with a separating membrane between the water and an inert gas (nitrogen)
The volume of the expansion vessels can be calculated by using the following expressions: for a vessel that is open to the atmosphere:
for a closed vessel without a diaphragm:
for a closed vessel with diaphragm:
where: V v = the volume of the expansion vessel (L) V w = the volume of the inside the plant (L) v 1 = the specific volume of the cold water at a lowest temperature t1 (m3 / kg) v 2 = the specific volume of the water at the highest temperature t2 (m3 / kg) α = the coefficient of the expansion of metals (see table) - per steel α = 1,2 . 10- 5 (1/K) - per copper α = 1,65 10- 5 (1/K)
Instead in cooling water circuits: t1 = the maximum water temperature that can be reached when the system is not functioning. In hot water systems the reference temperatures are predominantly: t1 = the temperature during filling. The water’s specific volumes are shown in the following table. www.8/20/13 The expansion vessel : Tempco Blog ∆t = t2 – t1 (°C ) P a = absolute atmospheric pressure (bar) P i = initial absolute pressure at the lowest temperature t1 (bar) P f = absolute pressure while functioning at the highest temperature t2 (bar) The expression: V w [(v 2/v 1) – 1] – 3 α∆t (L) represents the volume variation. 10 °C t2 = the water’s maximum flow temperature 85 : 90 °C In superheated water systems the temperature t2 can reach up to 130 ° C and beyond. for example.5700790882110595703125 2/10 .com/3432/the-expansion-vessel/?doing_wp_cron=1376980215. 7°C .tempcoblog. t2 = the minimum functioning temperature. 35°C .

Should there be many heat generators which run the same plant. This ensures the connection between the generator and the atmosphere either via the safety pipe or via the vent tube. the pipes that connect each generator to the safety pipes must be installed with three-way valves using a passage cross section that is not smaller than the valves on the generator’s security tube. www.tempcoblog.com/3432/the-expansion-vessel/?doing_wp_cron=1376980215.5700790882110595703125 5/10 . only the connections of each generator to the normal safety tube can be sized for the single power. a safety pipe that is sized for the nominal capacity of all the generators can be used. Connecting the expansion vessel with loading and safety tubes.
Start pump.8/20/13 The expansion vessel : Tempco Blog Connecting two heating generators to only one safety tube. There are no safety requirements regarding this issue: the problem is solved by taking into consideration that no point in the network should be in depression. that tube throttling should not be carried out on the open vessel plant’s two safety pipes: therefore. The piping networks. In order to verify the pressure of the piping network’s critical points it is necessary to check the diagram of the pressures along the circuit and to check the installation instructions. As far as the position of the circulation pump is concerned. a pump. is considered a choking device and must consequently be installed in areas away from the connections with the vessel.com/3432/the-expansion-vessel/?doing_wp_cron=1376980215. Let’s look at the following two examples of a start pump and a return pump.

1. The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf (2021)

While the live-action show has the witcher (hunters possessing supernatural powers with which they fight monsters and beasts) Geralt of Rivia as the protagonist, this anime movie centers on Vesemir, who is a witcher, as well as Geralt’s teacher. Executed in true anime style, this series is Vesemir’s origin story and serves as a great watch for Witcher fans as well as those who like anime.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is widely known for his well maintained relations with the celebrities from Bollywood. From marking his presence at the global icon, Priyanka Chopra’s wedding reception to inviting various personalities like Shahid Kapoor, Karan Johar, Kangana Ranaut amongst others to his oath-taking ceremony, aren’t these proof enough? Now, days after Veeru Devgn’s deminse, Modi ji has sent a condolence letter to Ajay Devgn and family and it’s heart-warming!
Ajay took to his Twitter to share the letter as he captioned the tweet as, “My Mother & entire Devgan family are deeply touched & humbled in silence by this thoughtful gesture from our Honourable Prime Minister @narendramodi. Thank you Sir.”
In the letter, the Prime Minister has written, “I am deeply saddened to learn of the demise of Shri Veeru Devgan who was widely respected for his outstanding work across various domains in the Hindi Film Industry. This is a great loss for the industry.
Shri Devgan worked as a stunt man, action choreographer, director, producer and more. This is the sign of a man who completely dedicated himself to his chosen field and hence, kept discovering new ways of contributing to it.”

He concluded the message as, “May he continue to inspire risk-takers in the world because it is those who take risks that define the direction our world takes. Om shanti to the departed soul.”
This indeed is heart-touching and so thoughtful of PM Modi.

As it’s the Space Week so here’s my first post with some real cool facts about our solar system.
I’m sure you didn’t know these (or maybe you did).
Let’s dive in:
- Our Solar system is 4.6 billion years old.
- The Solar system consists of the sun, planets, moons, dwarf planets, asteroids and the comets, out of which many are undiscovered.
- Over 99% of the Solar System’s mass is of the sun itself, rest is of the planets and all things around.
- We live inside the sun’s. atmosphere. It is far away but it’s atmosphere extends to cover all the planets in the system.
- Along with planets there are dwarf planets too. Only few are discovered so far namely Ceres, Pluto, Haumea, Makemake & Eris.
- The diameter of the dwarf planet Pluto is smaller than USA.
- All the planets are on the same plane and revolve…

Playful chocolate brown dinosaur soft puppet by Pepino puppets is ready to explore the world. A truly lovable character that will steal your heart in no time.
The puppets in this category represent the Czech tradition in puppet making. These are mostly small series cast puppets, which are then hand decorated by sewing and painting.
This handsome guy is made from eco-friendly materials like wool, fabric, wood, and non-toxic paint. He's a great choice for children from 3 years old and above. Anybody can fall in love with him. And it's not hard! His smooth chocolate brown skin and green spikes are a wonderful combination for such a character. The controller is a wooden bar attached to the body by cords and buttons which allows the puppet to move like a traditional marionette.
Dinosaur soft puppet is always in a good mood. He will cheer you up when you're feeling blue. He'll give you cuddles as well as a great playtime!
Thank you for all your advice and help! Guys at Czech Marionettes are really masters of what they do. I have visited them in their studio and got my Skeleton there. Will buy more professional stuff there.
I was surprised by how easy and fun it is to operate. The controls and strings are straightforward, making it easy to create various dance movements. For its size, the puppet is very compact and can be comfortably carried in a small backpack. If you're looking for a simple yet entertaining and nice marionette, this marionette is a fantastic choice.
If you enjoy Marionettes this is the site for you - your time and effort will be used wisely if you love creative puppets I recommend this site owner unconditionally and enthusiastically!

Lottery is a form of gambling in which people have the chance to win money or goods by drawing lots. The concept of using lots to make decisions and determine fates has a long history (with several instances in the Bible) but using it for material gain is more recent. In the modern sense of the word, a lottery is a government-sponsored game where participants purchase tickets in order to win a prize. The prize can be anything from cash to goods, although some prizes are more valuable than others. Some governments outlaw the game while others endorse it and regulate its operation.
While some people have made a living from gambling, it is important to remember that you should not play with more than you can afford to lose. Also, it is vital to learn how to manage your money so you do not end up broke after winning a big jackpot. Lastly, don’t be afraid to step outside your comfort zone and try different types of games, as this can increase your odds of winning.
The first recorded lotteries were held in the Low Countries in the 15th century, with proceeds used to build walls and town fortifications, as well as to help the poor. In fact, the earliest known public lotteries were organized by Francis I in 1445. However, this attempt failed, largely because of the high cost of the tickets and the limited number of social classes who could afford them.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, lotteries were very popular in Europe and America. In colonial-era America, they were used to finance a variety of projects including roads, buildings, and churches. George Washington sponsored a lottery in 1768 to fund a road across the Blue Ridge Mountains, and Benjamin Franklin was one of many organizers who ran lotteries to raise money for defense purposes in Philadelphia.
When choosing numbers, try to avoid picking numbers that are close together or ones with sentimental value like birthdays. Instead, try to select numbers that are rarely chosen, such as consecutive or quadruple digits. This can improve your chances of winning the jackpot by reducing the competition. Buying more tickets can also increase your chances of winning, but only if you choose random numbers.
If you want to improve your chances of winning, try to play the multi-jurisdictional Powerball, which allows you to pick four digits in a row. This is much easier than picking individual numbers. The Powerball lottery has a huge jackpot and is played in most states.
The lottery is a great way to earn money, and it can be a fun way to spend your spare time. However, before you start playing, make sure to read the rules of each lottery to ensure that you are eligible for a prize. Additionally, if you are a US citizen, be sure to use a licensed lottery retailer. Offering lottery tickets without a license is illegal in most countries.
