The March Primary runoff election is over and a republican candidate in the Wichita County Precinct 2 Commissioner's race has been elected.
Bill Lockwood, a pastor and a teacher, faced off against Wichita County native Lee Harvey.
With 100% of the precincts reporting, Harvey won the runoff election with 57% of the vote.
Harvey says, "It took a lot of people to get the turnout that we did today. The result that we did today. There's no way that any one person could have done that, so I'm just so grateful that the people believe in me. I appreciate that."
Also, Lockwood called Harvey a great candidate for the precinct 2 commissioner's seat.
"I'm happy for Lee," Lockwood says, "I'm happy for his family and his team. He's had a team that's really supported him and worked hard as well and I know that lee intends to do the greatest for this community and for this county and I know that he will do that."
The seat is being vacated by long time Wichita County Commissioner Pat Norriss.
Harvey will now face Democrat Tom Bursey in November.

Orthodontic Procedures – Cosmetic Crown Lengthening
When a patient comes to us with an aesthetic issue such as having an ample amount of gums show when they smile, we have a solution for them. Drs Barr and Marinak have a procedure called cosmetic crown lengthening. This is a periodontal plastic surgery wherein excess gum and bone tissue can be reshaped to expose more of the natural teeth. This can be done for a single tooth or for an entire gum line to increase the area of the teeth for a fuller and less “gummy” smile. Crown lengthening can be done by itself or along with another restorative procedure.
Crown lengthening is a common procedure that has effective benefits. Most patients who have undergone this surgery are pleased with the results.
Restoration of Damaged Teeth
To increase the clinical crown below the gum line where teeth have been damaged from trauma or decay. Crown lengthening can be used to prepare the area for a restorative procedure and providing enough tooth structure so the new restoration will not come loose.
Reduce the amount of extra gum tissue that makes teeth look aesthetically short. This procedure can achieve balanced, healthy looking smile.
Crown lengthening creates more space between the supporting bone and crown. This prevents the new crown from damaging gum tissues and bone once it is in place.
Crown lengthening is routinely performed under local anesthetic. This and the time involved to complete the procedure depend and how many teeth, bone and soft tissue are to be treated or removed. Any pre-existing dental crowns will be removed before the procedure, and replaced with new ones afterwards.
During the procedure, the oral surgeon will make a series of small incisions around the soft tissue in order to separate the gums away from the teeth. Even if only one tooth is requiring the reform, adjoining teeth are usually treated to provide a more even reshaping.
The removal of a small amount of tissue may provide enough tooth exposure to place a crown. In other instances, the surgeon will also need to remove a small amount of bone from around the teeth.
When the dentist judges that the correct amount of exposure has been made for the teeth, the treated tissue will be cleaned with sterile water and then be sutured with small stitches. The teeth will look noticeably longer following the surgery because the gums have been repositioned.
Preventing infection, the dentist will then secure the gums with an intraoral bandage. Prescriptions pain relief will be provided and an antimicrobial mouth rinse may be given to help reduce any growth of bacteria. The gums will be completely healed in approximately two to three months.
If you have any questions about crown lengthening, please call Drs. Barr and Marinak.

Tomorrow Maggie is coming home! She's been gone for 33 days now. Mission trip and then visiting in Phoenix. My sister is driving her home tomorrow and will be here to visit for a few days.
I got some baking mojo last night, so that I'd have some treats for company, and baked a new kind of cookie, so I thought I would share the recipe (because I am that nice). :)
When we moved into this rental house, our landlord baked us cookies as a
housewarming gift. (there were even homemade dog biscuits that were pumpkin flavor) She labeled each kind and one was Oatmeal Marmalade
Cookies....chewy oatmeal cookies with a slight orange flavor. I've made 2 recipes and this is the one that turned out the
Oatmeal Marmalade Cookies
IMPORTANT: Do not mix the marmalade in with the wet ingredients. Follow the instructions and stir it in last, with the raisins, after everything is mixed. They will not turn out right if you mix it in. (been there, done that)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups old fashioned oats
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/3 cup softened butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup golden raisins
1/3 cup orange marmalade
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Combine flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg and set aside.
Beat together the butter, sugar and brown sugar. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and stir by hand until almost combined. Add the raisins and marmalade, and stir until just blended.
Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough 2” apart on a cookie sheet. Parchment paper really helps them not to stick to the pan! Bake for 15–20 minutes, until deep golden all over, but not brown (see photo). Cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Makes 2-3 dozen cookies.

The five-year, $3.5 million project funded by NASA will make use of existing satellite imagery to produce the first-ever global survey of croplands. Northern Arizona University assistant research professor Temuulen “Teki” Sankey, a remote sensing ecologist, will put her skills to work as part of a multi-institute team trying to answer the question of “Where is all the food going to come from?” to feed a growing world population.
“This has never been done before at the scale we’re looking at,” said Sankey, noting the 30-meter resolution satellite images will allow her and other researchers to identify eight different crops and changes in acreage over the past four decades.
The LANDSAT images are stored and managed by the U.S. Geological Survey and are publicly available. But examining a world’s worth of them in 30-meter pixels over 40 years takes a cluster of supercomputers and a series of intricate algorithms.
“If you want to map the entire world in this kind of detail, it takes a massive, massive amount of data,” Sankey said. “In recent years, the technology has caught up with the kinds of data that a person could imagine using.”
Yet all that technology will still need an assist. To validate that conclusions drawn from the satellite images are accurate requires “ground data.”
According to Sankey, “We are going to look at our own map and ask, ‘Really, is it true that 20,000 acres are being cropped in this location?’ Then we need someone from that area to tell us that yes, it’s true, or that our analysis is inaccurate.”
Over the years, members of the research team have compiled a library of such information, but “we are trying to come up with a systematic and intelligent way to survey the Earth,” Sankey said. One possibility is a web page to which the public can contribute.
Sankey’s own research has focused on the study of vegetation cover to determine land-use changes over decades of time. She explained that climate science may gain from the mapping project because of the details it will reveal about natural vegetation lost to cropland expansion. Climate scientists rely on maps in coarser pixels that may not show such details, she said, which means there may be less or more vegetation than currently believed to absorb carbon dioxide.
“With our maps, they can come up with better estimates of what’s going on with carbon storage globally,” Sankey said. “Then they can produce a more accurate model for climate change.”
Other partners in the project include the U.S. Geological Survey, California State University at Monterey Bay, NASA Ames Research Center, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, the University of New Hampshire, the University of Wisconsin and Bay Area Environmental Institute.

Old records and older phonographs
By Simon Greenhill and Casey Miller, Counselors-in-Training
Students from the Year 1 and 2 programs visited Stanford’s Archive of Recorded Sound Tuesday. As the crackliest of crackly old records—a men’s choir performing in the 1910s—played on an antique phonograph, students learned the history and development of music recording since the late 1800s.
The Archive of Recorded Sound was founded in 1958 and contains over 400,000 recordings, many of which are rare or unique. Guided by sound archives librarian Jonathan Manton, students saw some of the earliest sound recordings, as well as artifacts such as antique music boxes and jukebox players.
“We were one of the first places to collect sound recordings the way people collected paper recordings,” Manton said.
One of the Archive’s main purposes is to preserve and digitize rare recordings in order to make them available to researchers. However, copyright law prohibits the unauthorized distribution of the digitized material, inhibiting its availability to a wider population.
“I had never seen any of the things [Manton] showed us,” Year 2 student Parankush Bhardwaj said. “Those large music boxes, and even the small ones that were considered portable back then and are now obsolete and absolutely horrible—but still incredible.”

Whitney Houston was the star and Whitney Houston was the legend, therefore I’m not interested in the private and personal lives of her family. I will always be a Whitney Houston fan but still not interested in her family’s reality television show.
And in spite of Whitney Houston being out of the equation, Lifetime television has apparently inked this deal for a reality show starring Whitney Houston’s daughter Bobbi Kristina, her grandmother Cissy Houston, her uncle Gary, his wife Pat and their daughter Rayah.
Although the Houston’s deny this reality show as exploiting the late singer’s death in order to make a profit, their claim is that Whitney was “onboard” with the show prior to her death last February.
“The Houston’s: On Our Own” which airs tomorrow night, will reportedly confirm Bobbi Kristina’s engagement to Nick Gordon; a young man who lived with she and her mother Whitney, supposedly raised as her brother and is now in the picture as the love of Bobbi Kristina’s life.
The anticipated show, which will follow the lives of the Houston family, released a series of clips from the show’s sneak peaks into the trials that come with trying to raise Whitney Houston’s only daughter especially as she tries to walk through life without her mother. In viewing clips for the upcoming show, it is painfully obvious that Bobbi Kristina’s had no discipline growing up with her mother.
I’m sure this show will be packed with plenty of drama!

The effects of resveratrol on testosterone and estrogen levels continues to receive a lot of research attention and interest from the general public.
Resveratrol seems to increase testosterone levels in the blood and may be an agonist for androgen receptors.
Research also suggests that resveratrol has an anti-aromatase effect on testosterone, meaning that it does not get converted into estrogen at the same rate. This is important for anyone interested in using a testosterone booster, since increased levels of this male sex hormone also lead to increased conversion (or aromatization) into estrogen.
What are the implications of this connection between resveratrol and testosterone and estrogen levels in men and women?
A discovery in the 1990’s led to the development of resveratrol supplements.
Steadily growing in popularity every year, particularly in the United States, the benefits of resveratrol are said to be numerous.
Research shows it possess some degree of anti-aging benefits on the body and disease prevention abilities. Studies have found it capable of increasing lifespan in experimental animals and of improving the health of various systems in the body.
It also acts as an anti-oxidant and may protect the brain and heart from free radical damage.
But the supplement form is not only popular with people who want to live longer and healthier. It is also rapidly becoming a popular supplement for bodybuilders, athletes and anyone who wants to stay in shape.
There appears to be a strong scientific connection between resveratrol and muscle building. For those that exercise on a regular basis and eat a balanced calorie controlled diet, resveratrol may help you to build muscle and reduce cholesterol.
There have been many claims made about the benefits of taking resveratrol supplements and not all have not been backed by scientific research. However, the connection between testosterone and resveratrol is something that has been investigated in the past and continues to be studied today.
Research validates that high doses of resveratrol can increase testosterone in the body. The effect this has or can have on the body is currently still under review, but it has been previously established that there are several health benefits that come with increased levels of testosterone in the body.
So far, the studies that have looked at resveratrol’s effects on testosterone levels found that there is a dose-dependent correlation. In one study published in 2008 in the Archives of Pharmacal Research, resveratrol was found to increase blood testosterone correlation by 51.6% when dosed at a 50 mg/kg level in mice.
The study also found an increase in testicular sperm counts and sperm motility following administration of resveratrol. The supplement was also found to trigger penile erections in mice.
In another study, this supplement also increased the activity of the steroidogenesis acute regulatory protein (StAR) which is a factor that determine how quickly the body synthesizes steroid hormones.
Testosterone supports muscle building by making it easier for our bodies to absorb proteins inside the muscle tissue. This results in the muscle fibers getting larger and also helps the muscle tissue to repair itself.
The latter is very important for building muscle and is the primary area where the connection between resveratrol and testosterone is being investigated. Your body needs to repair itself very quickly after the stress and pressure placed upon the muscles during exercises. Some preliminary studies show that resveratrol may help in this process.
The increased levels of testosterone that are caused by this supplement, doesn’t imply that it is only suitable for men.
Research suggests that the level of testosterone in our bodies is lower now that in previous recorded history, and this can be a problem for women as well. While men produce and absorb up to 20 times more testosterone than women on a daily basis, females also need small amounts of this hormone.
Typically associated as the masculine sex hormone, testosterone is essential for women in just the same manner that a small amount of estrogen is essential for men.
Resveratrol is also observed to have effects on estrogen levels in the body, though the connection is not as well-defined as with testosterone. When testosterone levels increase, some of this sex hormone will be converted into estrogen through an aromatization process.
Increased levels of estrogen has been identified as one of the possible leading causes of breast cancer in women. Products such as toothpaste have been blamed as a leading cause for an increased level of estrogen in the human body.
Resveratrol seems to inhibit the conversion of testosterone into estrogen, thereby keeping levels healthy and balanced. Studies found that this supplement inhibits aromatase in breast cancer cells, resulting in lower estrogen levels.
Another study found that it can be both an agonist and an antagonist of estrogen receptors. In estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells, resveratrol acted as an agonist, which means it increased the stimulation of these receptors. In the presence of 17beta-estradiol, resveratrol was shown to act as estrogen receptor antagonist, meaning it blocks the stimulation of these receptors.

A03Development of computational assay for psychiatric disorders using deep learning
In this research project, we investigate a novel technique for analyzing resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) data using deep neural networks. rsfMRI is a functional brain imaging method for evaluating regional interactions (functional connectivity: FC) that occur when a subject is not performing an explicit task. Resting state FC analysis provides useful information corresponding to the functional organization of individuals’ brain in healthy subjects, neurological or psychiatric disorder patients. However, even though rsfMRI includes a lot of temporal information, analyzing methods for temporal dynamics of rsfMRI remains unestablished yet. In order to address this issue, in the current project, we investigate a novel technique for extracting self-organized features with spatio-temporal hierarchy from rsfMRI data using deep neural networks. We expect that these extracted features could reflect individual’s brain states which are useful for the evaluation and treatment of psychiatric disorders. Particularly, we focus on the dimensional approach for psychiatric disorders, which attempts to find biological basis corresponding to observable behavioral and symptom measures, regardless of conventional categories of psychiatric disorder. The dimensional approach for psychiatric disorder is consistent with the idea that individual brain states can be evaluated as continuous feature-spaces from normal states to abnormal states. The proposed technique could be one of the base technologies of examination and evaluation for psychiatric disorders based on computational psychiatry (computational assay).

Shoreline Community Church
1251 Clark St., North Bend
NORTH BEND — The Trammels, a Christian singing duo from Lakeside, Ore., and their longtime friend, Steve Blum of Oakland, Ore., will host another in their series of country-gospel open microphone concerts Sunday afternoon, July 2.
The singing will begin at 3 p.m. at Shoreline Community Church, 1251 Clark St., North Bend, the Trammels’ home church.
Tom and Debbie Trammel have been hosting monthly concerts there since 2013. The addition of Blum provides a wonderful trio with Steve playing lead guitar, Tom acoustic rhythm and Debbie on bass. All three share singing leads and harmony. Their presentation is relaxed and fun with a goal to be uplifting and bring joy to those in the audience. In recent years, the songfests have evolved to include a portion for Open Mic, during which other musicians take the stage and share a song or two.
“It’s been a lot of fun,” Debbie said, adding that she and Tom felt the hand of God as young people and committed their lives to Him early in their marriage. Their music is a combination of Country and Rock & Roll from the ’60s as well as hymns and worship music that tell the stories of their faith.
“Some describe our music as country-gospel, but it’s simply a style we call our own,” Debbie said, adding that they came to recognize that music is a powerful force and thought, ‘why not use it to move the hearts of people toward God?’ So through the words of our songs, we weave a musical sermon.”
The Trammels’ gospel music journey began in the 1980s, first as a duet, then for 12 years in a six-member group, the Rising Harvest Singers. After that they continued as a trio, but while singing again as a duet, they were inspired to renew an old friendship with Blum. He is an accomplished musician and singer who has recorded several CDs and wrote most of the songs he recorded.
In 1972, after his conversion, Blum, his parents, brother, sister and brother-in-law formed “The Blum Family Band” and for almost 15 years toured the West Coast and New York. He’s also a member of the worship team at his home church in Oakland, Ore.
“His love for the Lord is contagious, but with a humble heart, he’ll tell you that he’s still a work in progress,” Debbie said.
The Trammels’ Open Mic concerts begin at 3 p.m. on the first Sunday of every month at the Shoreline Community Church. The events are open to the public. There is no admission charge, but a freewill offering will be accepted. For those who need directions, take U.S. Highway 101 to Newmark Street, turn north on Brussels Street, west on Lewis Street, then south to the church.


Heartwarming Classical Concerts for Cold Winter Days
The Babylonian Talmud counsels that at times of bitterest cold, it is best to say, “Such is the way of the world,” and then “observe eight days of festivity.” One such ideal post-winter solstice festivity for Manhattanites is a January 11 Carnegie Hall recital by America’s sweetheart of song, soprano Renée Fleming, in a program of German Jewish composers of art songs, including Arnold Schoenberg, Alexander Zemlinsky, and the ever-schmaltzy Erich Wolfgang Korngold.
Another German Jewish contemporary of these masters, Kurt Weill, is honored on January 25-26 with Collegiate Chorale concert performances of the 1938 musical “Knickerbocker Holiday” at Alice Tully Hall. Starring Victor Garber, a beloved Canadian performer of Russian Jewish ancestry, as Governor Peter Stuyvesant, “Knickerbocker Holiday” is noteworthy — even apart from the immortal melody “September Song” — for its disconnection between Weill, who saw the work, set in colonial New Amsterdam, as anti-fascist allegory, and playwright/lyricist Maxwell Anderson, who intended it as a screed against then-President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
On January 27, more intrinsic unity will be heard from the young ensemble, Israeli Chamber Project (ICP), which offers thoughtful performances of contemporary music and a hyper-energetic, Russified approach to the classics at Symphony Space. The program ranges from Beethoven and Debussy to a new work for clarinet, violin, cello, harp, and piano by gifted young Israeli composer Amit Gilutz, who is currently pursuing his studies at Cornell University.
Some hard-scrabble American Jewish individualism to help battle the weather may be experienced in Aaron Copland’s Sextet for clarinet, piano, and string quartet, played on February 7 by fearless Israeli piano virtuoso Roman Rabinovich and the Jupiter Symphony Chamber Players at New York’s Good Shepherd Church.
Further warming hearers, Tel Aviv-born pianist Joseph Kalichstein leads his acclaimed Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson Trio on February 12 in a program which includes Mendelssohn’s Trio No. 2, at Washington Irving High School, as part of the venerable Peoples’ Symphony Concerts series.
Zubin Mehta leads the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra in Mahler’s Fifth Symphony on February 22 at Carnegie Hall, and as an acclaimed Mahlerian trained in Vienna, Mehta needs no further introduction. By contrast, the less familiar names of American Jewish composers Miriam Gideon and Vivian Fine, who died in 1996 and 2000 respectively, will be honored at Weill Recital Hall on February 23 in performances presented by the Abby Whiteside Foundation. Both Fine and Gideon created lyrical music which occasionally can sound Coplandesque, while also revealing inspiring individuality of meaning and purposefulness.
It might not be exactly what the Babylonian Talmud had in mind, but this smorgasbord of musical achievement about to be spread in front of us, certainly enters into the spirit of the enjoinder to celebrate “eight days of festivity”!
Catch the Israeli Chamber Project during their current US tour on February 4 at Brooklyn’s Bargemusic; February 6 at UCLA; February 11 at San Francisco State University; and on March 29 back in New York at the Morgan Library.

National organic regulations prohibit the use of antibiotics in livestock farming. Instead of routinely giving antibiotics to their animals, organic farmers keep animals healthy through proper nutrition and sanitation, by reducing animal stress and with preventative and holistic animal health practices.
A common misunderstanding is that these organic regulations are meant to keep antibiotics out of the food we eat. In fact, USDA regulations for nonorganic production already do this much. The organic regulations regarding antibiotics are mainly an effort to reduce the growing human-health threat posed by antibiotic resistance.
The Humane Society tells us that more than 40% of the antibiotics used in the U.S. are given to farm animals. On nonorganic farms, farmers may routinely give prophylactic antibiotics to livestock to keep the animals healthy in crowded, unsanitary and essentially unhealthy living conditions. This widespread use of antibiotics in livestock can lead to the development of new antibiotic-resistant “super bugs”—a growing threat to human health.
Here at Stonyfield, we think it’s just sensible and humane to give cows clean, healthy living conditions and low-stress lives and, in so doing, to keep them healthy without all of those antibiotic injections.

A summer food program targeting children who qualify for free or reduced lunch is expanding this year to offer a pickup site in West Ashley.
Charleston County School District's Seamless Summer Feeding Program is adding a meal preparation and pickup site at St. Andrew's School of Math and Science after seven facilities in the West Ashley area applied to participate, said Jeremy Tunstill, field supervisor for the school district's Office of Nutrition Services.
The program provides free meals to schools, camps, churches, community and recreation centers, and other facilities that provide summer programming to children and are near a public school where more than 50 percent of its students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The program is funded through the National School Lunch Program. Most schools in West Ashley would qualify for a summer program to receive meals, Tunstill said. Children don't have to register individually to receive a meal.
"The whole site is eligible so any child at that site can participate in the program," Tunstill said.
Four meal preparation sites - St. Andrew's, St. John's High, Sanders-Clyde Elementary/Middle and St. James-Santee Elementary - will also provide meals on-site to any children who live in the immediate area.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided for nine weeks from June 9 through Aug. 8. The program is accepting applications for sites to receive meals through May 9. For information on how to apply call 746-1376.
With about half of Charleston County's more than 46,000 students qualifying for free or reduced lunch and only about 4,500 children a day being reached through the summer feeding program, Tunstill said potentially another 20,000 children could be needing access to meals over the summer.
"Our number one goal is to reach more children," he said.
Last year the program provided more than 100,000 breakfasts and more than 200,000 lunches over the 44 days of the program to 140 sites. Tunstill said the program has grown by 30 percent since 2011 when 70,000 breakfasts and 150,000 lunches were provided.

German prosecutors have announced that they have shut down a huge global pedophile network and made worldwide arrests of people involved in organizing and participating in child abuse.Investigators shut down the Darknet website called Elysium, which “was used for global exchanges of child pornography by its members and to arrange meetings to sexually abuse children,” according to a statement by prosecutors in the western city of Frankfurt.Police raided premises and arrested an “administrator” and seized hard drives and computers being used to run the site and hold members personal data.Further arrests have been made globally following the initial raid, in a joint effort between international law enforcement agencies.The network’s 87,000 members traded images and video files of “the most serious sexual abuse of children, including babies, and representations of sexual violence against children,” the statement continued.
AHT reports: After months of investigation, authorities arrested a 39-year-old man from the Limburg-Weilburg district north of Frankfurt, and are questioning him in custody.”The suspect is believed to have been largely responsible for the creation of the technical infrastructure of the platform as its administrator,” prosecutors said, adding that they had found the server used to store the site’s data on the so-called darknet during a search of his flat. Investigators are currently sifting through the data retrieved in the raids a hope the information could lead to thousands of additional arrests worldwide.
Darknet sites like the one uncovered in the case are invisible to most internet users and can only be accessed by using encryption technology. They have repeatedly been used by criminals to trade drugs and weapons.Investigators have identified other administrators and members of the ring and arrested some of them, mostly in Germany and Austria.Among them are people accused of serious sexual abuse of children, the statement said.

This was my first time using this service and it worked seamlessly. I had no problems at all dropping my bag off at NYC Racquet Sports and it was just as easy picking it up. This location is a couple blocks from Penn Station, so it was perfect for exploring Manhattan for several hours before catching the train to Newark Airport for a late night flight. Will definitely use this service on future trips!
Really excellent service, right around the corner from A/C/E trains at Penn Station in New York. Popular and busy restaurant, too — but no one kept me waiting to drop off or pick up a bag.
This place is awesome, it’s near Macy’s and other souvenir shops, nearby food outlets too and near the Penn station in New York. This is the best place to leave your luggage for last minute shopping before you head to the airport via Penn station. Plus the Employees are very courteous and kind

Wireless headphones AirPods 2 can be presented only in the fall of 2019. According to sources from the well-known OnLeaks insider, despite numerous rumors, Apple will not release a completely new model of AirPods for iPhone in the spring.
According to an insider, in the near future, Apple may present a new charging case for AirPods with support for wireless charging. It will come with original AirPods headphones, while full-fledged second-generation headphones will be released in the fall. It is expected that the case will be presented at the upcoming Apple presentation in March.
AirPods 2 will be fully updated and released in at least one new color, insider sources said. Most likely, the headphones will be presented in conjunction with the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Max at the Apple presentation in the second half of September.
Earlier, authoritative analyst Min-Chi Kuo said that Apple will release the updated AirPods 2 headphones in 2020 at all. In 2019, the analyst expects the release of the updated model of the original AirPods. It is possible that it was about them that the sources said in today's leak of the OnLeaks insider.

Fresh from the field, BK Bhavya delivers greens to housing complexes an hour after harvest
The early morning sun lights up several shades of green at SLV Krishivihaar, BK Bhavya’s expansive organic farm. She is caressing the tender stalks, as if waking them up gently. Shaking off the morning dew from a bunch of freshly-plucked leaves, Bhavya holds out the four kinds of greens that she grows in 12 huge patches in her two-acre field at Nettigere, off Kanakapura Main Road.
“I grow palak, coriander, methi and amaranth and my farm is completely organic. I dug the land two feet deep and filled it with new red soil, coco peat, and pure sheep and cow manure before I began the first round of planting,” she explains. The water is sourced from her bore well.
She delivers the produce to apartments within an hour of harvesting. “It’s been a dream come true for me to have this community service for busy urbanites who want to savour organic greens,” says Bhavya, who enjoys her 32-kilometre journey from the field with 100 bundles brought in her car (250 grams each) to be delivered personally at two apartment gates on Kanakpura Road. “It encourages me to see my customers going gaga over these tender ‘soppu (greens) straight from thota’,” she says.
Bhavya quit a career in civil engineering to take up organic farming. “I chased my love for life sciences by growing greens!” she says. The 36-year-old completed her civil engineering from UVCE in 2005 and was part of her family’s industrial-projects business for a short while. “Plants and biology interested me but I did a professional course only to please my father,” she says.
Bhavya adds that her interest in growing greens was to see them grow naturally. “I was also disturbed that in many parts of Bengaluru, greens were grown using water from the Vrishabhavati that carries toxic industrial and domestic waste. It pushed me to take up this endeavour and provide something clean.”
She started by leasing a farm at Harohalli and had a poly house where ornamentals and indoor plants were grown. Soppu was initially grown in pots. “I used to sell greens grown only with coco-peat in pots. It helped people get 150 grams of greens that they could use any time in a week. It stayed garden fresh, as there was no soil. They could use them and return the pot to me,” says Bhavya. But 150 grams that a pot can hold (for ₹20) wasn’t enough for even a nuclear family. Hence, Bhavya stopped the ‘pot greens’ and set up her farm at Nettigere (from where she operates right now).
For six months she learnt the best methods of green farming and the combination for her soil-cocopeat-manure media from professional agriculturists. “While one part of my two acres is reserved for greens, I also have them under a shade to save them from the scorching sun. It’s back-breaking and energy squeezing to have the ‘green babies’ grow to perfection, especially in summer,” says Bhavya. She now supplies 300 kilograms of greens in a month to two apartments .
The one dark cloud on her horizon is buyers who think her pricing of ₹25 for a 250 gram bundle is overpriced. She says, “I just want people to know that the produce is without anything artificial and brought to each one’s doorstep after hours of work at the fields.”

Abstract / Description of output
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is a prevalent, disabling disorder. The most common manifestation is distal symmetrical polyneuropathy (DSP), but many patterns of nerve injury can occur. Currently, the only effective treatments are glucose control and pain management. While glucose control substantially decreases the development of neuropathy in those with type 1 diabetes, the effect is probably much smaller in those with type 2 diabetes. Evidence supports the use of specific anticonvulsants and antidepressants for pain management in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. However, the lack of disease-modifying therapies for diabetic DSP makes the identification of new modifiable risk factors essential. Growing evidence supports an association between components of the metabolic syndrome, including prediabetes, and neuropathy. Studies are needed to further explore this association, which has implications for the development of new treatments for this common disorder.

‘I know some Americans are disappointed, but I think Trump will do well. . . . God is on his side,’ one Ghanaian says.
#2016 presidential election
Mayor Rahm Emanuel advised his fellow Democrats to “take a chill pill:” The party he loves didn’t get to its current political low point overnight.
Incoming press secretary Sean Spicer said he checks Donald Trump’s Twitter first thing in the morning because it has such an impact on the news cycle.
The victim is believed to have been held hostage and tortured in an apartment in the 3300 block of West Lexington on the West Side, police said.
As a host at conservative Fox News, Kelly was in an excellent spot to call out Donald Trump for his bad attitudes and behavior toward women.
U.S. intelligence agencies concluded that Russia’s goal was to help Trump win — an assessment Trump has dismissed as ridiculous.
President Barack Obama’s boast about beating President-elect Donald Trump is meaningless on several levels, columnist Neil Steinberg writes.

As a Wedding and Lifestyle photographer, SanSe Festival is the one weekend you will see me running away from Old San Juan.
Starry's friends were in town for the weekend, and they had scheduled bachelorette trip photos with me as a gift for her. Two little things, though:
- They wanted their photos in Old San Juan.
- Some of their friends would arrive at noon on the first day of the SanSe festival.
Beloved by locals and tourists alike, the entire town gets closed off for festivities, and musical performances on multiple stages across the city make thousands of people flock in attendance.
This time, instead of steering away from Old San Juan, I leaned all the way in to give these ladies a fun, authentic Puertorican bachelorette experience! SanSe it is!
The SanSe Street Festival
The SanSe festival, short for San Sebastián Street Festival, has a rich history that dates back over 60 years. The festival originated in 1954 as a small religious procession to honor Saint Sebastian, the patron saint of San Juan. Over time, the parade grew in size and popularity, and in 1970 it evolved into a full-fledged street festival.
Today, the SanSe festival is a four-day event held annually in January in the historic district of Old San Juan. It is the largest and most famous festival in Puerto Rico, drawing crowds of locals and tourists alike.
The festival features a range of events and activities that celebrate Puerto Rican culture, including live music performances, parades, art exhibitions, traditional dance performances, and street vendors selling local foods and crafts.
The SanSe festival is deeply rooted in Puerto Rican history and identity. It is seen as a symbol of the island's resilience and strength in the face of adversity. It is a time for Puerto Ricans to come together, celebrate their culture, and honor their heritage while also welcoming visitors from around the world to experience the vibrant and rich culture of Puerto Rico.
Bachelorette Photoshoot in Old San Juan During SanSe 2023
To avoid the crowds, we scheduled our photo session earlier in the day, when the festival was just starting. However, this meant that the sun was still quite intense, and we had to walk around to find the perfect locations for our photos.
Despite the heat and the walking, we had a fantastic time capturing the energy and excitement of the festival. The vibrant colors of the traditional costumes, the sounds of live music and dancing, and the delicious smells of the local cuisine all added to the event's festive atmosphere.
After the photo session, we decided to stay in Old San Juan to continue enjoying the SanSe festival. We wandered through the streets, taking in the sights and sounds of the celebration and sampling some delicious food and drink. The heat and excitement of the day meant that we had to drink a lot of water to stay hydrated. Still, it was all worth it for the incredible experience of being part of this vibrant and exciting cultural celebration.
As I sit here with a huge smile on my face, I can't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to be part of such a unique and unforgettable event. The SanSe festival truly captures the spirit and essence of Puerto Rican culture, and I feel privileged to have witnessed and participated in it firsthand.

Registration for the 2023 Annual Convention is open!
Media Releases, Legislative News, Agricultural Updates
Denver >> Rocky Mountain Farmers Union (RMFU) President Kent Peppler sent a letter to USDA Secretary Ed Schafer urging swift action on the request by Governor Ritter to assist Colorado producers being impacted by growing drought conditions.
Peppler followed up with a letter to Colorado Governor Bill Ritter petitioning for a broader response to the drought conditions in Eastern Colorado through the release of Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) acreage in additional counties. “We support the release of CRP grazing land to feed endangered livestock in southeastern Colorado,” Peppler said. “But we need to help animals throughout eastern Colorado, where conditions have become just as serious.”
In the letter to USDA, RMFU expressed strong support for Governor Ritter’s request that the USDA Farm Service Agency assess the impact of local drought conditions throughout Colorado agriculture and prepare damage assessment reports for crop and pasture losses. Wheat farmers are at risk as well as livestock growers, with projected yields at barely fifty percent of last year’s production. RMFU also supports immediate action on Ritter’s request for emergency access to land set aside by conservation programs to allow haying and grazing for livestock producers.
Farmers and ranchers in all of eastern Colorado are facing financial disaster from drought conditions. Ranchers will be forced to liquidate livestock herds because cattle can’t be fed on drought-depleted pasture. Farmers with reduced wheat yields and increased input costs will also face financial pressures. “Congress passed the 2008 farm bill to protect our domestic food supply against natural disasters,” Peppler said. “The economies of our rural communities and our state depend on agriculture, and consumers depend on our farmers and ranchers for a safe and reliable supply of food. Working together, through application of programs already in place, we can make sure farmers and ranchers survive these disasters and continue to provide for our country’s food needs.”
Peppler praised the cooperative teamwork of the Colorado Department of Agriculture and Colorado Division of Wildlife. “They are working together to ensure that haying and grazing will be done consistent with sound wildlife management practices,” Peppler said. He pledged that RMFU and its producer-members will work closely and cooperatively with USDA and all Colorado government agencies to be sure environmental practices are met.
Rocky Mountain Farmers Union represents 23,000 farm, ranch and rural families in Colorado, New Mexico and Wyoming. RMFU works closely with consumer groups, conservation groups, and local food coalitions to promote and support food safety and independence, and to make farming a sustainable family occupation.

A casino is a place where people gamble. Guests place bets against the house and each game has its own built-in edge that helps casinos make money. The most popular games include slot machines, blackjack, poker, roulette and craps. Many of these games have a history that dates back to ancient times. Some primitive protodice, or carved six-sided dice, have been found in archeological digs. The modern casino, however, didn’t develop until the 16th century when a gambling craze swept Europe and wealthy Italian nobles held private parties at places called ridotti [Source: Schwartz].
Something about the way that casinos are set up encourages people to cheat or steal, especially when the amounts involved are large. As a result, casinos devote a great deal of time and money to security. The games are arranged so that the expected reactions and motions of players follow certain patterns, making it easier for security personnel to spot unusual activities.
In the United States, most casinos are based in Nevada. Las Vegas is famous for its many and varied casinos, and Atlantic City is also home to a number of gambling establishments. Other major casinos are located in Macau, which has been developing rapidly since becoming a special territory of China. In Europe, a number of well-known casinos can be found in cities such as Cannes, Nice and Divonne-les-Bains. In general, casinos are more common in countries with legalized gambling.

What is the pitch of a lead screw?
Pitch is the distance between screw grooves and is commonly used with inch sized products and specified as threads per inch.
Lead is the linear travel the nut makes per one screw revolution and is how ball screws are typically specified..
What are the types of screw threads?
Screw Thread TerminologyExternal Threads: External threads (ie: male threads) mean the threads are on the bolts or screws. … Internal Threads: Internal threads (ie: female threads) mean the threads are on the nuts rather than the bolts or screws.More items…•Feb 2, 2021
What is an example of a lead screw?
Lead screws were first developed to deliver a large amount of force in devices such as olive presses and grape presses. They are still used that way in some applications when combined with a metallic nut. For example, today you will often find lead screws used in vises, presses, and jacks.
What is mean by screw jack?
jackscrewA jackscrew, or screw jack, is a type of jack that is operated by turning a leadscrew. It is commonly used to lift moderately heavy weights, such as vehicles; to raise and lower the horizontal stabilizers of aircraft; and as adjustable supports for heavy loads, such as the foundations of houses.
How do you measure the pitch of a screw?
Thread pitch is the term used to calculate the difference between two threads. For metric fasteners, thread pitch is used in place of TPI. The distance is also measured in millimeters. To measure thread pitch, use a caliper and measure from the peak of one thread to the next.
How does the pitch affect a screw?
Like the other simple machines a screw can amplify force; a small rotational force (torque) on the shaft can exert a large axial force on a load. The smaller the pitch (the distance between the screw’s threads), the greater the mechanical advantage (the ratio of output to input force).
What is a lead screw used in?
Leadscrews are commonly used in linear actuators, machine slides (such as in machine tools), vises, presses, and jacks. Leadscrews are a common component in electric linear actuators. Leadscrews are manufactured in the same way as other thread forms (they may be rolled, cut, or ground).
How do you measure a lead screw?
Root (Minor ) Diameter – The diameter of the screw measured at the bottom of the thread. Pitch– The axial distance between threads. Pitch is equal to the lead in a single start screw. times the number of starts.
What is the difference between the thread of a screw and the pitch of a screw?
The thread of a screw is the crucial part that enables you to attach the screw to the required fastener. The thread pitch of a screw is simply the distance between these threads.
What type of thread is used in lathe lead screw?
square threadlead screw has square thread because it has the highest power transmission capacity without any backlash and minimum friction. but as the square thread are costly to machine, acme threads are used as an alternative in many application.
How do you secure a lead screw?
Install Lead Screw Slide the pulley on top of the leadscrew and tighten the set screws to secure. Thread the M6 nylock nut onto the top of the leadscrew and tighten with a 10mm wrench. You can hold the leadscrew by its pulley or by applying a clamping force to the leadscrew itself. Make sure you don’t mar the threads.
What is the principle of screw jack?
A screw jack is an example of a power screw in which a small force applied in a horizontal plane is used to raise or lower a large load. The principle on which it works is similar to that of an inclined plane. The mechanical advantage of a screw jack is the ratio of the load applied to the effort applied.
How do you calculate the force of a screw torque?
Tightening torque values are calculated from the formula T = KDP, where T = tightening torque, lb-in.; K = torque-friction coefficient; D = nominal bolt diameter, in.; and P = bolt clamping load developed by tightening. lb. 2. Clamp load is also known as preload or initial load in tension on bolt.
How do you calculate screw force?
Example – Screw jack without frictionF = ((50000 lb) (1/8 in)) / (2 π (20 in)) = 49.8 lb.T = (49.8 lb) (20 in) = 995 lb in. = 82.9 lb ft.F = ((225000 N) (0.003 m)) / (2 π (0.5 m)) = 215 N.T = (215 N) (0.5 m) = 107 Nm.
How do lead screws work?
Lead screws use the helix angle of the thread to convert rotary motion to linear motion. The performance of a lead screw is heavily dependent on the coefficient of friction between the nut and the screw, which in turn depends upon the material used for the nut and screw.
How much force can a screw hold?
In general, a screw can hold 80-100 pounds. Several factors can impact on the amount of weight the screw can hold. This includes the length of the screw, the type of thread, the quality of the screw, the way it was inserted, and the type of forces that will be acting on it.
What is the efficiency of a self locking power screw?
Explanation: Efficiency of self locking screws is less than 1/2 or 50%. If the efficiency is more than 50%, then the screw is said to be overhauling. Explanation: Efficiency of self locking screws is less than 1/2 or 50%. If the efficiency is more than 50%, then the screw is said to be overhauling.
How do you calculate the efficiency of a lead screw?
Rule of Thumb10mm diameter screw with 2mm lead = 41% Efficiency (<50% will not back drive)10mm diameter screw with 25mm lead = 83% Efficiency (>50% will back drive)
How do you measure the diameter of a lead screw?
N = (4.76 × 106 × d × Fc)/L2 where N = critical speed, d = root diameter of screw, Fc is end fixity factor (0.36 for one end rigidly fixed, one end free; 1.00 for both ends supported; 1.47 for one end rigidly fixed, one end supported; and 2.23 for both ends rigidly fixed), and L = the length between bearing supports.
