2021 Hyundai Elantra, Elantra Hybrid debut – four-door coupe style, dual-screen setup, 64-colour LED lights!
Hyundai has officially launched the new 2021 Elantra, and for the first time in the model’s history, the Elantra Hybrid is introduced as well. As you can clearly tell, the seventh-generation sedan now sports a four-door coupe look that stems from the automaker’s latest Parametric Dynamics design theme, and it’s the second car to fall under Hyundai’s Sensuous Sportiness design identity after the new Sonata.
To start, the C-segment sedan is now bigger than its predecessor in every way, with wheelbase stretched by 20 mm (2,720 mm), the body wider by 25 mm (1,826 mm), and height lowered by 20 mm (1,415 mm). It’s also nearly 56 mm longer in terms of overall length, now measuring 4,676 mm. That makes it longer than the Toyota Corolla, Mazda 3, and Honda Civic, although it’s worth noting that the Elantra sits as low as the Civic. It’s off to a good start, then.
Design-wise the car is entirely new, almost looking like geometric crystals, as Hyundai puts it. Sharp lines and deep creases are dominant features here, but perhaps no more imposing than the new Cascading Grille with “Parametric jewel-pattern.” This is directly connected to the LED headlights, creating a distinct and aggressive face. The prominent lower lip design, first featured in the 2019 facelift model, is intensified.
Things start becoming divisive when viewed from the side. Here, the use of sharp lines form an unusual Z-shaped impression in the front doors, while the rounded door handles are positioned above the sloping character line. Wheel sizes range from 15- to 17-inch items, and these of course are designed to match the Parametric Dynamics theme.
Like the Civic FC, the Elantra now gets a fastback look but with a conventional sedan’s boot mechanism (it doesn’t open hatch-style like a true fastback). A quick glance would have you believe that it’s a concept car for the future, largely because of the elongated bootlid and continuous LED strip. To further enhance the coupe-like look, the lower portion of the rear glass gets a large piece of black panel. Overall, the more you stare at this rump, the more lines you’ll find, but that might not be such a bad thing.
For the cabin, the designers have moved the front cowl point back nearly 50 mm, which had to be done to achieve the four-door coupe look. Hyundai says this doesn’t affect cabin space, considering that its footprint is now larger than the older Elantra. Now, the new cockpit looks suitably modern, and the combination of the two-spoke steering wheel and digital instrument meter help give it a welcoming sense of luxury.
Hyundai calls this the “immersive cocoon” interior layout, designed to envelop the driver like an airplane cockpit. Range-topping models will get two 10.25-inch displays which are conjoined, with the centre infotainment unit angled slightly towards the driver. The head unit also supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which is a first for the segment. A standard eight-inch head unit is available for the rest, and it too supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
If it feels like it’s taken straight out of Mercedes-Benz’s playbook, well, let us tell you that the new Elantra also features a 64-colour LED mood lighting system. Other notable interior elements include slim air vents (much like modern Audis), a cornering grab handle for the front passenger, and voice-recognition system. Options include Qi wireless smartphone charging tray, Blue Link Connected Car System, and eight-speaker Bose premium sound system with Super65 wide-range speakers in the front doors and a woofer at the back.
Now, the Elantra sits on the automaker’s third-generation K3 platform for compact cars, developed to accommodate hybrid powertrains. Base models get the 2.0L MPI Atkinson Cycle engine that generates 147 horsepower at 6,200 rpm and 179 Nm of torque at 4,500 RPM. An Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT) is standard, which Hyundai claims to offer the best-in-class fuel economy.
This IVT is essentially a CVT, but uses a chain-design belt that improves fuel efficiency by 1.2% compared with conventional belt systems. The gearbox also improves acceleration and linearity between driver inputs, while the simulated gearshifts “closely replicates” automatic transmission step shifts.
For the Elantra Hybrid, power comes from a smaller 1.6 litre GDI Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder petrol engine, featuring a permanent-magnet electric motor which delivers 43 hp (32 kW). This electric motor is powered by a 1.32 kWh lithium-ion-polymer battery pack that’s placed under the rear seats. The combined system output is 139 horsepower and up to 264 Nm of torque, with drive sent to the front wheels through Hyundai’s own six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. No official fuel consumption rating has been released, but Hyundai projects a combined EPA rating of over 50 miles per gallon, or 4.7 litres per 100 km.
Besides the brand new design, Hyundai also says the Elantra’s suspension has been tuned to provide better driving dynamics. The Elantra Hybrid employs a fully independent multi-link rear suspension which apparently makes the car drive sportier, with Hyundai going as far as to say that the car will drive as good as it looks. More technical details will be released soon, so be sure to watch this space for more updates.
As usual, Hyundai prioritises safety and driver assist systems (Hyundai SmartSense), so the 2021 Elantra gets Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), Lane Following Assist (LFA), High Beam Assist (HBA), Driver Attention Warning (DAW), and rear view camera with dynamic guidelines as standard.
Optional systems include Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance Assist (BCA) with Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA), Smart Cruise Control (SCC), Highway Driving Assist (HDA; helps keep the car centred within lane), Safe Exit Warning (SEW), as well as Reverse Parking Collision Avoidance Assist (PCA) with pedestrian and obstacle detection.
Lastly, there’s also the optional Digital Key, which works via a dedicated mobile app. This uses the smartphone’s NFC and Bluetooth technology to unlock the Elantra’s doors, and this virtual key can even be shared with friends and family. What’s more, the Digital Key also allows owners to tailor several vehicle functions, such as duration of vehicle use. Currently, only phones running on the Android operating system can make use of this technology.
Production of the 2021 Hyundai Elantra will begin in September this year at two locations – Ulsan, Korea and Montgomery, Alabama. Sales will begin in the fourth quarter of the year. In Australia, the Elantra will be marketed as the i30 Sedan, while in Korea it will be sold as the Avante.

1.1 This specification covers nuclear grade uranium
hexafluoride (UF6) that either has been processed through an
enrichment plant, or has been produced by the blending of
Highly Enriched Uranium with other uranium to obtain uranium
of any 235U concentration from 5 % to less than 20 % and that is intended
for fuel fabrication. The objectives of this specification are
twofold: (1) To define the impurity and uranium isotope limits
for Enriched Commercial Grade UF6 so that, with respect to
fuel design and manufacture, it is essentially equivalent to
enriched uranium made from natural UF6; and (2) To define
limits for Enriched Reprocessed UF6 to be expected if Reprocessed
UF6 is to be enriched without dilution with Commercial
Natural UF6. For such UF6, special provisions, not defined
herein, may be needed to ensure fuel performance and to
protect the work force, process equipment, and the environment.
1.2 This specification is intended to provide the nuclear
industry with a standard for enriched UF6 that is to be used in
the production of uranium compounts for fuel fabrication.
In addition to this specification, the parties concerned may
agree to other appropriate conditions.
1.3 The scope of this specification does not comprehensively
cover all provisions for preventing criticality accidents
or requirements for health and safety or for shipping. Observance
of this specification does not relieve the user of the
obligation to conform to all applicable international, federal,
state, and local regulations for processing, shipping, or in any
other way using UF6 (see, for example, TID-7016, DP-532, and
The proposed new fleet of Advanced Gas Reactors uses significantly higher enrichment levels of uranium to operate. Also some blending of Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) stock may supply temporary supplies, ultimately new uranium needs to be enriched for the HALEU market, ostensibly from commercial natural uranium sources or existing Low Enriched Uranium (LEU) stock from ASTM C996 compliant stock. Users include HTGC reactors using TRISO ceramic fuels and some molten salt reactors.

An offshore unit of Hong Kong-listed Summit Ascent Holdings Ltd is upping to 77.5 percent from 67.5 percent, its stake in Hong Kong-registered Oriental Regent Ltd, the promoter of the Tigre de Cristal casino resort (pictured) near Vladivostok in the Russian Far East.
Summit Ascent Holdings is in turn a 69.66-percent owned subsidiary of Hong Kong-listed Suncity Group Holdings Ltd, which has as a controlling shareholder Alvin Chau Cheok Wa, the boss of Macau-based, privately-held junket brand Suncity Group.
The increase in the Summit Ascent Russia Ltd stake in Oriental Regent comes about via a share subscription exercise in the latter.
Summit Ascent Holdings said in an October 30 filing it had agreed to acquire in aggregate a further 7.5 percent interest in Oriental Regent. That increased the firm’s stake in Oriental Regent to 67.5 percent, it said at the time.
The reason given for the deal at that time, was that two minority shareholders in Oriental Regent – offshore entity Joyful Happiness Ltd, with 5 percent, and Hong Kong-registered Sharp Way Group Ltd with 2.5 percent – did “not intend to provide their respective shares of equity funding to Oriental Regent” when the latter looked to raise an additional US$65 million as capital for the Tigre de Cristal project.
Summit Ascent had said in an October 29 filing of unaudited highlights of its third-quarter performance that, in terms of average net monthly gaming revenues, net win amounts from Tigre de Cristal had recovered to 81 percent and 99 percent of first-quarter levels for mass-market tables and slots respectively. That was since the property had reopened on July 16 following a period of closure due to Covid-19.
The firm did not give figures for VIP performance, but noted that “rolling chip business was affected by the travel ban as the Russian borders remained closed”.
Jun 24, 2022It is likely that Macau will shortly have a third round of citywide centre-based Covid-19 testing in little more than a week, after the results so far of a second mass test – that was due to finish...
Amount that each Macau casino operator paid for the circa six-month extension of their respective contract

What is the foundation of chiropractic care?
Chiropractic is a healthcare approach that uses the power of natural healing to promote, enhance and restore normal function within the human body. It is an approach that favors natural healing over the use of surgery or pharmaceuticals. In chiropractic care, the primary focus is on reaching a state of optimal spinal alignment through a wide variety of techniques. Once any existing misalignment has been corrected, the patient’s body is able to recuperate on its own and return to a healthy state.
What types of conditions can chiropractic care address?
Patients come to Elevated Health seeking relief from a variety of conditions. Common complaints include the experience of pain in the areas of the neck, back or head, which can result from illness or injury, or as a simple consequence of the aging process. Some people find chiropractic services helpful in addressing the joint pain that accompanies arthritis. Others seek chiropractic care for discomfort during pregnancy. Research has shown that individuals who are suffering from anxiety or depression can find a measure of relief by seeking chiropractic services.
How are chiropractic treatments conducted?
Unlike surgical interventions, chiropractic care is provided without the need for invasive procedures that are accompanied by a risk of infection and the potential for complications. While there are many different types of treatments available, the core focus is on reaching optimal spinal alignment that will facilitate a healthy and fully functional nervous system.
Chiropractic care is a highly individualized approach, and no two patients will have the exact same experience when seeking this type of alternative health care treatment. In some cases, chiropractic services are provided as the sole means of addressing a patient’s concerns. For other patients, chiropractic services work to complement and support other types of medical treatment. No matter what brings a patient in for chiropractic care, Dr. Matthew Shave and the team at Elevated Health will create a comprehensive and flexible treatment plan that is customized for each patient’s unique set of needs and goals.

Probably one of my favorite outdoor events of the year is the Wheeling Symphony's "Music Under the Stars," on the Sunday evening of Labor Day Weekend.
This year was no exception ... except it could've been a bit warmer! The air had quite the chill by 10 p.m. (And my iPhone's Bic Lighter app gave off little heat! OK, no heat.)
One of the highlights of the evening was the opening skit featuring board members Lea Ridenour, Les Defelice and board president Betsy Delk.
Promoting the pops series for the 2010-11 season (The '50s Dance Party, Classical Mystery Tour and the Music of Led Zeppelin), Lea was a perky "Pink Lady" from the 1950s, Betsy was a peaceful hippie from the 1960s, while Les was a long-haired 1970s kind of guy.
Another highlight was guest artist Chris Tedesco, who played the trumpet with a beautiful clarity. He was as entertaining in his stories as he was in his playing. Tedesco, who lives in Los Angeles, met WSO conductor Andre Raphel when they were both at the University of Miami, in Florida, he noted.
Tedesco said he's been quite lucky to have played on recordings for many movies, television shows, commercials, CDs as well as live dates with some big names in the industry.
His Italian movie theme medley was a lot of fun, but my favorite was when he played, "Blue Skies," with a jazzy accompaniment from Jack DiIanni on drums, Jeff Mangone on bass and Nathan Strasser on keyboards. I'm not sure I've ever heard better jazz. These guys were hot.
Throughout the evening we also heard Rossini, Ellington, Tchaikovsky, Berlin, Mancini, Copland and we winded up with Sousa's "Stars and Stripes Forever," just before a grand fireworks finale.
While the Sousa was conducted by Dolph Santorine, who won the privilege at the WSO fund-raising auction in the spring, the Copland was "conducted" by a toddler boy seated in about the fourth row. Or should I say standing on his seat in the fourth row.
I couldn't take my eyes off of him. Campbell Koegler, 4, who is the son of Jason and Sarah Koegler and grandson of Bill and Debby Koegler, conducted with gusto with a flashlight in one hand. (The flashlight came from his little brother's lighthouse birthday cake Debby had made for his party that day.)
When the music slowed, Campbell slowed. When the pace quickened, so did his little arms. He was as into that music as any of the hundreds in the audience — or on the stage. He was intense. I wouldn't be surprised if some day he's up on that stage conducting or playing an instrument.
Hollywood and Jazz at the Symphony was a perfect way to spend a Sunday evening. And I'm certainly looking forward to the WSO's opening Masterworks concert Sept. 24 featuring pianist William Wolfram.
But I'm especially looking forward to Flash Cadillac's "50s Dance Party," on Oct. 8.
And by the way, Lea, may I borrow your Pink Lady jacket?

Universities and colleges receive 245 million to tackle sexual harassment
HEFCE (Higher Education Funding Council for England) has awarded grants to over 60 projects in universities – including University of Leicester - and colleges across the country which address concerns about sexual violence and harassment on campus.
The grants, from HEFCE’s Catalyst Fund, were issued in response to a report by the Universities UK Harassment Task Force which explored the nature and scale of the problem in higher education, and highlighted the need for institutions to respond more effectively.
Gill McIntyre, Head of Student Support at the University of Leicester, said: “We are dealing with a sector wide issue and information we have received from our own student survey (2016) reflects what the NUS found in their ‘Hidden Marks’ Survey (2010). On that basis we are being proactive in addressing this social issue. Work will include supporting students who have been a victim of sexual assault as well as working positively across the student community in ways to change the culture.”
The University of Leicester campaign focuses on developing a robust framework and is known as ‘Standing Together’. New initiatives together with existing work will be combined and embedded so that work extends beyond the project time and funding. This will involve cutting across organisational boundaries to ensure services join up, both internally and externally so that students don’t have to navigate themselves between organisational services for support.
Professor Jon Scott, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Student Experience, said: “This funding from HEFCE provides significant recognition and support for the on-going work of the Standing Together campaign. Sexual harassment is wholly unacceptable and the University of Leicester is committed both to supporting anyone in our community who has been a victim of such behaviour and to driving cultural change to eliminate this scourge.”
The University of Leicester is also a champion for HeForShe, a global solidarity movement for gender equality, with the aim of engaging and encouraging men and boys to take action against gender inequality and to spread awareness and inspire action to eliminate discrimination against women and girls. The University of Leicester was invited by the United Nations to be one of just ten universities in the HeForShe ‘10x10x10 IMPACT Champions’ programme.

If you think house painting works are the safest home pro job, well, you are wrong. House painters are too vulnerable to the hazardous smell coming from the wall paints. If you have ever tried to do the house painting works by yourself, you’d sure agree on this.
More often than not, painters find ways to breathe easily despite smelling the odd smell of paint fumes. Depending on the paint types and brand, some paints odor is too strong to handle.
In this blog post, I hope to share with you experience-based guidance relating to paint fumes and health. And notes on protecting ourselves during the house painting works—either as a contracted house painter or as homeowner-clientele. You may read more helpful posts from us here.
What are paint fumes?
A strong smell coming from the wall paints called paint fumes. The traditional paints mostly used in house painting work often contain volatile organic compounds or also known as VOC. This kind of chemical has a mixture of combined ethanol, acetone, xylene, toluene, methyl chloride, and other substances.
Read also: What You Should Know About VOC in Paints
Water-based paints are harmless and easy to use. Compared to solvent and oil-based, they usually produce an unpleasant odor. Additionally, exposure to paint fumes with harmful substances can irritate your unprotected nose, eyes, and skin.
How do paint fumes affect your health?
Aside from irritations to your nose, skin, and eyes, it can also bring several dangers that can impact your health. Unprotected house painters or individuals can experience these symptoms including:
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Difficulty breathing
- Vision problems
VOC paint fumes produce toxic substances in the air. Sleeping in a freshly painted room is a big no. It may lead to suffocation and fainting.
Risk factors that affect health during house painting work
Numerous factors can provoke our health when we accidentally inhale the contaminated air. Pay attention to the following risk factors that are listed below:
- Amount of chemical present
- The length of time in exposure
- Closed space surrounding
- Existing medical condition
- Respiratory issues like asthma
- Age of a person
- Pregnant women and indoor pets
House Painter Considerate of Your Health
Need to replace your old, cracked wall paint? At Change of Colour Painting, we prioritize health in our house painting works. Talk to us about your home repainting projects. Call us at 705-279-2557 or send your email at email@example.com.

The fact is, if you are headed to New England to be a part of an exhibition, trade show, convention, or even a sporting event, there's a good possibility that you will be getting Bayside Expo tickets. The Bayside Exposition and Convention Center is in a great location as well, close to everything you will need if you are out of town on a business trip.
Before you get tickets you ought to take a look at the Bayside Expo seating chart, which will show you how the over 240,000 feet of exhibit space and the 40,000 square feet of meeting space is used for your particular event.
There shouldn't be any trouble finding a hotel or restaurant around the Bayside Expo. The area around the exposition and meeting buildings offers a wide range of different hotels for all price ranges. So if you are coming into Boston from somewhere else, you have a place to stay near the Bayside Expo. Plus, the Bayside Expo offers great views of the city of Boston and the bay itself.

It's a baffling time in the history of Detroit. For optimists, one can look to the rise of downtown and proposals for mega-development projects. For pessimists, there's the messy reality of impending municipal default. In Detroit, "paradox rules."
November 19, 2012, 9am PST
A Detroit developer is moving ahead with plans for an innovative condo project that will repurpose shipping containers for medium-density housing, reports John Gallagher.

Video Conferencing Market Observations and Trends
Over the last several years, significant strides have been made to improve video communication capabilities in the industry. Video over IP networks has made it easier and faster to deploy. HD quality is now commonplace in video systems and clients. Management and infrastructure solutions deployed in enterprise organizations have enabled video networks to be established and custom dial plans implemented, enabling a rich set of visual communication experiences for users within those organizations. As a result, video adoption has increased across enterprises and organizations around the world.
However, with growth have also come challenges. Those challenges have been mostly experienced when enterprises or organizations have desired to have video communications across organizational boundaries.
With voice and Internet traffic, one does not ponder how a network is connected because "it just works" when making a call or accessing web sites outside an end-user domain. With video, the opposite is true.Typically, end users can only communicate via video within their own organization. When communicating with outside parties, they often have to use awkward dial strings, and/or engage in manual planning and testing over the public Internet to have a video call, and even then a successful call can only be established if the IT departments of both companies have policies that will allow the video call to take place. The customer may choose to use a managed or hosted video service provider to help facilitate that communication; however, this only moves connection procedures and challenges to the service provider, which manually plans, tests, and validates that the other party is accessible.
Both end users and service providers must deal with a wide variety of technical issues when establishing video between different organizations or different service providers. These issues include network connections, network quality of service (QoS), NAT/firewall traversal, security policies, various signaling protocols, inconsistent dial strings, security rules within each organization impacting video and incompatabilities between video endpoints. In addition, there are the operational considerations around, coordination of the different types between management and scheduling systems that exist. Finally, the commercial considerations of termination and settlement between service providers must also be resolved.
This combination of technical and business challenges has relegated video communication to a collection of isolated islands. It's easy to communicate within an island, but almost impossible to communicate between islands. The ability to resolve these issues and connect the islands doesn't lie within the power of any one customer, one equipment manufacturer, one service provider, or even one standards body to solve. It requires a concerted effort of the industry driven by the needs of their end users.
OVCC Connects Anywhere and Everywhere
The OVCC will develop and support a global video exchange, enabling anyone to place a video call anywhere as easily and reliably as placing a mobile call. OVCC will connect current video system islands by establishing secure, quality-assured, and video-capable interconnections between service providers, who will utilize a consistent signaling and dial plan implementation over a highly interoperable video infrastructure, with an operational framework for coordination of scheduling and management functions.

The subject of complaints from neighbours for 13 years, a house at the corner of Pym and Soriel in Parksville now has a demolition order placed on it by city council.
The house at 526 Pym Street was the site of a fire in October of last year. On Monday night, council unanimously passed a motion deeming the property unsafe and ordering it demolished — along with the removal of all materials — within 30 days. The city now has the authority to do the work and bill the owner if the order is not followed.
There were no comments from councillors Monday night as they passed the order.
After the fire in late October, neighbour Al Bryans spoke about his frustration related to the house.
“I tried to declare the place a fire hazard because of all the junk,” said Bryans. “It was just one hell of a mess but we couldn’t get anything done.”
Mayor Marc Lefebvre, who was not present at the council meeting Monday night, confirmed in October the city had received complaints about the residence.
“Yes, I was certainly aware of this,” said the mayor. “I had been to see the neighbours a couple of times.”
Also in October, Parksville Fire Department Chief Banks said his department just can’t declare some residence a fire hazard and take unilateral action. “We’re very limited as to what we can do, if anything,” said Banks. “We don’t have that authority.”
“It’s something as a mayor I find extremely frustrating,” Lefebvre said at the time. “The frustration comes from the number of hoops you have to jump through to legally get people to do something.”
See Tuesday’s edition of The NEWS for more from Monday night’s council meeting.

Protests erupt in Barcelona as citizens vent anger at harsh sentences for Catalan referendum organizers (WATCH LIVE)
People are gathering in the streets of the Catalan capital Barcelona, to protest the sentencing of nine people to lengthy jail terms for their roles in the 2017 independence referendum.
On Monday, Spain’s Supreme Court handed down jail terms of between nine and 13 years to the Catalan officials behind the referendum, which failed to create an independent nation of the wealthy autonomous Spanish province. They were found guilty on various charges, including sedition and misuse of public funds in organizing the plebiscite.
Now Barcelona is bracing for a day of mass protests, with local students leading the build-up for what is promised to be a “Democratic Tsunami”.
Several streets have been blocked by demonstrators. Further disruptions of traffic are expected as more people take to the streets later in the day. Protest rallies have also been reported in several big Catalan municipalities, such as Girona and Lleida.
A local rail operator reported a brief blockage of a railway line by some activists.
The public anger over the sentences is shared by the province’s leadership. Catalonia’s President Quim Torra condemned it as “an act of vengeance, not an act of justice” that has no place in a democratic society, and also called for peaceful resistance to pressure from Madrid.

The third album from this US one man band with a guy who want to be left nameless. Which is fair enough.
This is my first meeting with his music after years of hearing only positive things about this, what I thought was a band. It is not so I am now a lot wiser.
This nameless man does everything here and I detect a lot of synths, guitars, bass, drums and some very pleasant vocals.
The band is labeled as a neo-prog band. Perhaps US neo-prog. Well, it is. The European neo-prog sound is a lot more naked and stripped bare than the US version where everything is bigger and brasher.
Half of this album though sounds like symphonic prog to me with some church organs and some symph prog song structures. The first half of this album is great, great symphonic prog.
The final half of this sixty-three minutes long album fizzles out a lot and we get some good US neo-prog. There are still some very good synth runs and melodies. The songs are not that good on this half of the album.
So this album is an album in two halves. One half is great. The other one is good. Hence my rating.

Phenolic content, HPLC analysis and Antioxidant activity extract from Tamarix Articulata
Halophyte plants can easily adapt in saline habitats, salt marshes, mudflats, and inland deserts. This kind of plants can be utilized as new sources of natural antioxidants. The goal of the present investigation was to examine the antioxidant of methanolic extracts of the Tamarix articulata in southern Algeria (ElOued). Colorimetric methods were applied to assess the total phenolic and flavonoid contents, HPLC analysis was used to identify the individual polyphenols, and the amount was also determined, while scavenging assays of DPPH, FRAP, ABTS, β- carotène and total antioxidant capacity of methanol leaves extract from Tamarix articulate were used to measure antioxidant capacities . The resulted findings showed that total phenolic contents and flavonoid from the extract of this plant were found to be 398.42 ± 5.21 mg GAE /g DW for phenolic content, and 120.55 ± 3.41 mg CE/g DW. The HPLC analysis showed that there were at least 8 remarkable phenolic compounds of leaves extract, and the most important ones included vanillic acid, naringin, and caffeic acid. The seeds of this natural plant can be a promising source for new drugs because they contain antioxidant properties and phenolic compounds.

Magical Mathematics: The Mathematical Ideas That Animate Great Magic Tricks (Hardcover)
The mathematics behind some of the world's most amazing card tricksMagical Mathematics reveals the secrets of fun-to-perform card tricks--and the profound mathematical ideas behind them--that will astound even the most accomplished magician. Persi Diaconis and Ron Graham provide easy, step-by-step instructions for each trick, explaining how to set up the effect and offering tips on what to say and do while performing it. Each card trick introduces a new mathematical idea, and varying the tricks in turn takes readers to the very threshold of today's mathematical knowledge. Diaconis and Graham tell the stories--and reveal the best tricks--of the eccentric and brilliant inventors of mathematical magic. The book exposes old gambling secrets through the mathematics of shuffling cards, explains the classic street-gambling scam of three-card Monte, traces the history of mathematical magic back to the oldest mathematical trick--and much more.
Persi Diaconis is professor of mathematics and statistics at Stanford University, and a former professional magician. Ron Graham (1935-2020) was professor of mathematics and computer science at the University of California, San Diego, and a former professional juggler.

Arts Drive Creamery District Visioning, Design Charette this Saturday, Sept. 8
Kevin L. Hoover
CREAMERY DISTRICT – Further refining their collective vision for vaulting its historic neighborhood into the 21st century, Creamery District stakeholders gathered at the Arcata Playhouse Sunday afternoon, Aug. 26.
The west-of-downtown area has been coming into its own recently, identifying its assets and trying to leverage them for a neighborhood makeover. July’s announcement of a $50,000 National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) “Our Town” grant further invigorated the process.
The visioning session, dubbed an “artists’ roundtable,” focused on the artistic aspects of the process.
With about two dozen people attending, introductions included multiple persons involved in the arts – musicians, actors and actresses, visual artists and people associated with the theatre and Old Creamery building.
Along with the Playhouse, various craftspeople, the Kinetic Sculpture Lab, two jewelry designer/manufacturers and any number of minstrels live and work in and around the district, and the density of creative types there is all but unrivaled in Arcata. Their aesthetic values will likely form a central pillar as the process matures.
Fawn Scheer of Greenway Partners facilitated the meeting. She listed the ideals which inform the process, including vibrancy, arts engagement, creative commerce, mixed-use development, safety and street improvements, green spaces and recreation opportunities and a local arts district with a unified, distinct and visible identity.
Goals for the day involved identifying the district’s artistic needs and including them in the evolving vision. That vision will underpin a neighborhood-wide renovation intended to create a Creamery District centered on the arts and what proponents call “creative commerce.”
The session kicked off with a brief but invigorating tour of the neighborhood in the crisp sunshine. The preliminary stroll of the ’hood gave attendees a sense of place, with the area’s history, unusual post-industrial architecture and other features identified.
This was followed by a slide show of various art-slathered neighborhoods in Arcata and elsewhere. Some of the scenes looked inviting, but attendees were interested in how the many murals and other artistic features truly integrated into the environment to meaningfully improve the quality of life.
Fhyre Phoenix suggested that a disused, three-story tower at the Creamery was “crying out” for a mural, but artist Willoughby Arevalo said the rough, weathered concrete walls were beautiful unadorned.
As participants formed three small groups for informal brainstorming, facilitator Scheer first asked that they discuss what tools, structures or other elements they would need to contribute to their artistic success.
After compiling their ideas, the groups were broken up and reassembled in different mixtures. Then they had to ponder a different question: how can you contribute meaningfully to “creative placemaking” in the Creamery District?
Ideas generated included having more storage space, better sound insulation to prevent noise pollution, “sound shells” for outdoor performances, a protected all-weather outdoor space, quality community gathering spaces, cheap live-work spaces, cooperative gallery space, expanded performing arts spaces, district-wide rent control, an artists’ marketplace, a public workshop space for educational activity, promoting interaction between artists via urban design, music rehearsal and recording space, maintaining “messy” and “loud” artistic endeavors in the area and having the former recycling center be a place for exchange of artistic supplies.
In terms of contributions, responses included creation of sculptures by individual artists outside their front doors, creation of a “wildly creative” archway to herald the neighborhood, participation in Arts! Arcata with performances and music, a sculpture park, creative ways to micro-grant, incubating new artists, festivals, banners, arts education classes, community improvement days, youth outreach and youth-oriented activities, service learning programs in partnership with schools, finding financing for paid staff members and an outdoor weekly music jam.
One attendee suggested informal community micro-granting via community gatherings. These would be hosted events offering a soup dinner and charging admission. Attendees would enjoy soup along with project presentations by aspiring artists. At the end of the evening, one artist would be selected and admission funds would be turned over to them as a micro-grant to fund their project.
Scheer’s next question for the attendees to ponder was, “What elements need to be in place to enable the arts to integrate successfully with business and industry in the district?”
After discussion, responses were gathered and posted. They generally emphasized process, stressing efficiency, communication, respect, representation, long-term planning and oversight.
Snacks at the event included cookies, chips, fruit and coffee.
Creamery District Design Charrette
Bring your pencils and markers!! The Arcata Playhouse is hosting a Creamery District Design Charrette on Saturday, Sept. 8. After morning coffee and tea at 9:30 a.m., the day’s events will begin at 10 a.m. and conclude by 3 p.m. You’re invited!
The district is exploring how it can create a community that centers on the arts and creative commerce. After a brief introduction, all participants will be invited to convene in small groups to draw their ideas. Several local architects will be on hand to help with drawing and translating your ideas into design.
No idea is too big, too small. Each group’s plans and sketches as well as proposed next steps will then be displayed for public comment. That’s you, too!
The Creamery District Design Charrette was conceived to continue our community dialogue that started with a visioning workshop on Feb. 5 and a public open house on April 25.
This charrette is supported by a grant from the Humboldt Area Foundation: Grassroots and the National Endowment for the Arts: Our Town, Playhouse Arts and by the generosity of several area businesses and the work of dozens of volunteers.
The Arcata Playhouse is an established arts organization that is vital to the cultural livelihood of Arcata and Humboldt County. Our mission is to use live performance as a tool to build a community that is inspired and empowered to work together for the common good.

- According to the list of general holidays that were previously announced, the holiday was expected on Tuesday (May 3). But Karnataka on Saturday declared Monday (May 2) as the Eid-ul-Fitr holiday
Karnataka government on Saturday declared Monday (May 2) as the Eid-ul-Fitr holiday through an official notification. However, according to the list of general holidays that were previously announced, the holiday was expected on Tuesday (May 3). Hence, the sudden declaration that came on Saturday has created confusion among schools.
ICSE and CBSE boards exams are scheduled for Monday, but many school administrators have not yet received any directions regarding what should be done. However, the principal of an ICSE board school told a leading news website.
According to the central government’s holiday calendar, Meethi Eid falls on May 3rd but the celebration will be dependent on the sighting of the new moon as the date of Eid varies from year to year due to the Hijri calendar (lunar calendar based on the phases of the moon).
