Another operating system from Google, to replace Android & chrome?
Its seems that Google not are enough happy with with Android and Chrome OS operating system
Technology giant to have a third operating system under development, the name is Fuchsia. And it will not based on Linux system.
And they confirming that the core is called Fuchsia, built on the medium-sized microkernel Magenta.
Looking into Fuchsia’s code tell us a couple of things, its designed to be a lightweight system, and for this it would be a perfect system for modern smartphones
It will be available on all platforms, from small embedded IT gadgets, mobile phones to desktop computers. And of course Fuchsia will also support Raspberry Pi 3.
Fuchsia are written in Google’s own home-made programming language, Dart and Flutter, and their own framework for interfaces are used.
So what will be the use of this operating system
The web have now started to speculate if Fuchsia will be a future replacement for Chrome OS and Android,
Another operating system built for devices like Chromecast.
Another theory is to use fuchsia, or the magenta kernel, as a base when the operating system will be developed in the future.
And in this way, it could survive under separate names, but with the same technology under the hood.
Some others say it could be used to power hardware like Google’s OnHub router or third-party internet of things devices
This is not the first time we have heard rumored that Android and Chrome OS to be replaced or merged in any way
So who knows, this can simple be one of Google’s many experimental side project that will end in absolutely nothing.

Charles Hurst Group, Northern Ireland’s biggest car retailer, has been named as the first Motor Retailer in NI to sign up for the Mark of Progress from Diversity Mark NI, for the company’s continued commitment to advancing gender diversity in the workplace.

Blum, designed by Marcello Furlan, is an exquisite collection of blown glass and metal suspended ceiling lamps, and the concept developed from a study of natural and organic elements reinterprets the traditional forms of Venetian glasswork: an abundance of glass vases like sunrays burst out of a chrome-plated metal sphere, densely covering its surface to form a five-lobed flower that forms an impressive “blossom of crystal”.
This light comes in a choice of two finishes: the crystal finish plays on the refractive effect of glass creating a radiance of light that gives this suspended model a floaty, lightweight appearance. The chrome plated glass version, on the contrary, features a special reflective effect, creating streaks of changing light and making the light similar to metal liquid on which luminous flowers float.
This suspended lighting source has a light bulb in each single glass vase: the combined effect of these bulbs is a diffused light without an unpleasant glare, as each single bulb lights the edge of the five-lobed vase bringing out the suppleness and softness of a lamp that transforms into a unique and impressive furnishing and decorative feature.
Blum is available in 31-bulb, 19-bulb or single-bulb versions and is sold accompanied by a precious blown-glass vase, a flower borrowed from the lamp’s halo of light, whose characteristics make it ideal both for holding flowers and as a pleasant furnishing feature.

Today is Thanksgiving Day, or, as I like to call it: Spanx Giving Way. By that I mean if I wore Spanx they’d definitely be Giving Way to my expanding waistline.
Overeating is inevitable for many today. I am among those.
Stuffing a turkey and stuffing myself are undeniable parts of the day. Certainly, Rebecca and I make sure to express thanks for all we have, because that’s important.
But the bottom line is the day ultimately becomes a portly pigfest. A colossal chowdown. A gargantuan grub-a-thon.
Turkey, bacon-topped stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, green bean bake, rolls and French silk pie are on the menu today, but the bill of fare varies from year to year. Rebecca and I always discuss the Thanksgiving dinner menu in advance. We rarely have any trouble deciding what to include, our tastes are so similar. Talk about giving thanks.
There’s nothing like a warm home filled with the aroma of roast turkey, browning rolls and baking pie. The scents of the season are almost as good as the main event.
The house is also filled with happiness and tradition on Thanksgiving. As I’ve mentioned in posts and even a previous blog, we have our special flying of the turkey tradition during which the uncooked bird soars through our kitchen, with a little bit of help from me.
We also have the tradition of breaking open some wine during food preparation. Giving thanks for the harvest just seems like it should include grapes.
And, of course, there is the televised Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade, which we DVR and watch later, fast-forwarding to the parts of most interest. Floats. That’s really what it comes down to for me. Floats. Floats of all sizes. Floats of all types. Floats. Lumbering, slow-moving, inflated with enormous amounts of gas— Hey, I just realized how much those floats are like those who overindulge on Thanksgiving. How appropriate.
The food does take center stage, indeed, and I, for one, always enjoy it. I look forward to savoring each bite, eating second and third servings and revisiting the food before the day is over.
In a world in which poverty, homelessness and hunger are stark realities that can knock on anyone’s door, I know Rebecca and I are fortunate.
I know I we have no shortage of things for which to give thanks.
Our celebration in our home with plenty of food is not taken for granted but neither is the love that pervades our lives.
Here’s to full hearts as well as full stomachs.

FROM Heather Smith
From Making History to Governing the White House An African-American rode to the White House yesterday on what pollsters call "a storm of voter dissatisfaction" and the promise of change. The challenge facing Barack Obama is to transform his iconic status into effective leadership on war, the economy, health care and global warming. We talk about how he mobilized a diverse coalition of blacks, Latinos and whites, including young people across ethnic lines. What's the reaction from those African-Americans who thought it would never happen? What's left of the Republican Party? Will fellow Democrats help or hinder the Obama Administration?
Trump's new look at civil rights and global warming President Trump is reportedly ready to pull the US out of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. We look at the possible consequences. On the second half of the program, we hear about cuts in Obama-Era civil rights programs called for by the Trump Administration's first budget plan.
Trump's 'America First' goes missing abroad In the Middle East, President Trump is changing some policies of the Obama Administration—and reversing his own campaign attacks on Islam as a religion that "hates us." We hear about his visit to Saudi Arabia and what's at stake for the rest of his foreign excursion.

Whether you need to hire a Family Law Attorney for a separation, divorce or to assist you with legal proceedings for custody, child support, adoption or guardianship of minors, you need to take the time to search and find the right lawyer. Hiring a the #1 Family Lawyer in Houston ensures that your case is handled properly and you are treated fairly. The process can be very emotional, but a good family law lawyer helps you to manage your emotions so that you can have the best chance of getting a positive outcome in your case.

When you schedule your initial consultation, it is important to ask the attorney about their hourly rate, years of experience and what types of cases they typically handle.
It is also important to find out if the attorney has a track record of success with cases like yours. Reputable attorneys will be happy to provide testimonials and proof of their success. If they cannot or will not provide you with this information, you should move on to another attorney.
A good Family Law Attorney will be able to answer all of your questions regarding your case. They will be able to explain how the law applies to your situation and what the possible outcomes could be. They will also be able to provide you with a realistic assessment of what your case might cost and can offer alternatives for resolving the case without having to go through a lengthy trial.

Whether you are going through a divorce, trying to get custody of your children or even filing a lawsuit against a family member, you need an experienced attorney to guide you through the process.

Double dip fear stalks market as gilts sink
Yields on 10-year gilts dropped to record lows as capital markets threw their weight behind gloomy predictions for the British economy and the expectation of very low interest rates for the foreseeable future.
Government bond yields fell by almost 10 basis points to an intra-day low of 2.8% following comments from Martin Weale, a newly-appointed member of the Bank of England's monetary policy committee, casting doubt on the Bank's growth forecasts for 2010 and warning of a "significant" risk of double dip recession.
Mr Weale's remarks - which play down fears of rising inflation, and therefore suggest interest rates will remain at current unprecedented lows for longer than assumed - helped push yields down to close at 2.88% per cent, the lowest level on record.
Yields on 10-year gilts hit a 16-month high in February, at the height of concerns about rising inflation, spiralling public debt and the risk of a credit rating downgrade.
But they have fallen consistently since the election, as fears of a sovereign default receded in part thanks to the coalition government's emergency Budget committing to eliminate the current structural deficit by the end of the current Parliament.
Perversely, concerns that such tough spending cuts will put a drag on Britain's economic recovery are themselves helping to cut government borrowing costs by boosting gilt prices and cutting yields.
John Higgins, the senior markets economist at Capital Economics, said: "The simplest explanation of the drop in gilt yields is a dramatic reassessment of the likely path of interest rates, and the resurgence of the view that they are not going up any time soon.
"The UK's strong economic growth in the second quarter is not indicative of what is to come - the fiscal squeeze is yet to bite and will then bear down heavily on economic activity, which will mean monetary policy will need to stay very loose."
The slide in yields also suggests capital markets do not agree with recent predictions from the Policy Exchange think-tank that interest rates could be set to rise as high as 8%.

Kendrick Lamar and Baby Keem have reunited for a new song entitled “The Hillbillies.” The track, which was produced by Evilgiane, comes with a music video co-directed by Neal Farmer and pgLang.
“The Hillbillies” samples Bon Iver’s non-album single “PDLIF.” The song features both MCs comparing themselves to soccer legends, with K.Dot labeling himself Messi and Keem referring to himself as Neymar. The video also features a cameo from Tyler, The Creator. Check it out below.
In other Kendrick news, it was recently announced that the legendary Austin City Limits Music Festival returns in 2023 with a lineup featuring headliners the hip-hop icon himself, Foo Fighters, Mumford & Sons, Shania Twain (Weekend One only), The Lumineers, ODESZA, Alanis Morissette and The 1975 (Weekend Two only).
The nine-stage, two-weekend extravaganza will take place October 6-8 and October 13-15, 2023, at Zilker Park. Three-Day Tickets for both weekends will go on sale today at 12pm CT. This year, there will be no surprises at checkout–all fees and shipping costs are included upfront. Layaway Plans are available starting at only $25 down.
Kendrick was also confirmed for Life is Beautiful 2023, alongside The Killers, and Odesza. The Nevada festival will return to the city’s downtown area this September to celebrate its 10th anniversary.
Vegas’ own The Killers will come circle from the festival’s first edition – which it also headlined – and top the bill on the opening day on September 22, closing out a day of performances from the likes of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Inhaler, Slayyyter, Raye, and more. Lamar will then headline on the Saturday (September 23), following sets from The 1975, Reneé Rapp, The Rose, and others. He last performed at the festival in 2015, when he also headlined.

Five years later, Jeffrey's brother Lucas finds the children that were raised without social relationship and claim that they have been raised by Mama. Lucas disputes the custody with the children's grandmother but Dr. Dreyfuss, who is studying the girls, selects Lucas to take care of the children. Lucas lives with his girlfriend Annabel, who plays in a rock 'n' roll band, and Victoria and Lilly moves to their house. Soon Lucas and Annabel find that the girls were not delusional and they are not alone in the house.

Will I watch it again? No.
THE SPOILERS AND MR. CHICKEN...YARRRRRRR!
Jump scares? Check. Crappy story? Not really. Jump scares? Check. Little-to-no character arc? I'm shocked that it's got one. Lousy ending? Not exactly. Jump scares? Check.
I didn't expect to like this but I have this monthly movie pass that lets me see whatever I want in the theater. I feel like I don't see enough horror films in the theater so there I was. If it weren't for the fucking jump scares I would have liked it a whole lot better. I'm willing to forgive the little plot holes the show up every once in a while if the picture is effective. The ghost design and effects are outstanding. I was very impressed. I LOVED the way the ghost would sink to floor/ground level so that only her long hair moved across the floor/ground. Nice! Hell, I even liked the girlfriend's character arc. The ending was fucking great. Killing the guy, beating the snot out of his girlfriend and killing one of the two little girls was amazing. I couldn't believe my eyes. They had the balls to do something cool for a change. Oh...wait. The guy's not dead. He gets up and joins his girlfriend and the little girl that survived and they're going to be a happy family. THE.FUCK? The witch reached into his chest, pulled out something, he falls to the ground lifeless. Don't give me some bullshit that he's alive. When the ghost killed herself and the girl did his 'essence' come back suddenly? That's the only excuse they've got. I can't believe this. This is bullshit. Take out that little bit and the jump scares and this would have been a solid 8/10. What a fuck up.

I have read in the Burbank Leader that the beautification of Olive Avenue is being considered (“Funds repurposed for Olive Avenue,” Aug. 1). I think that’s unnecessary and could even be detrimental.
We can look at Burbank Boulevard as proof. The street is wide and straight, with a lot of commercial, mostly nonretail-type businesses. It is not a street with much, if any, pedestrian traffic.
A few years ago, the decision was made to pretty it up, hoping to encourage more people to shop there, a la Magnolia Park. Trees were removed and replaced with others, steel benches were installed on the sidewalks and vegetation-filled concrete medians were placed at numerous places in its center lane.


Barely a month after he resigned from Shiromani Akali Dal
(SAD) citing personal reasons, former Army chief General J J Singh
(retd) on Thursday returned to active politics in the state by throwing his weight behind Patiala MP Dharamvira Gandhi. He also called his first political foray with contest on SAD “a mistake”.
The former chief SAD ex-servicemen wing had unsuccessfully contested the last assembly elections from Patiala seat against chief minister Amarinder Singh and later accused SAD leaders of sabotaging his campaign. He had finished third with 11,677 votes, while Capt Amarinder had got 72,586 and AAP Balbir Singh had secured 52,407 votes.
On Thursday, Gen Singh said that contesting
the election on SAD ticket was a mistake
and he had learnt his lessons. “I have come back with double the preparation and feel that the experience that I gained from my last political contest will come in handy in the Lok Sabha elections. This time I will cause a revolution in the state politics,” he claimed.
However, the former General failed to spell out his plans. “As if now I have come to support Dharamvira Gandhi in his run for the next parliamentary polls. I have also decided to support the third front and I want to contest the Lok Sabha elections from a seat which the Punjab Democratic Alliance (PDA) deems fit,” he said.
Meanwhile, the Patiala MP said he had decided to contest from the same seat. “My fight to rid Punjab of the political families that control the entire state will continue, but it is yet to be finalised as under which banner I will be contesting the next elections,” he said.

Palace seeks warmer ties: We know China is a superpower
Malacañang steered clear of Chinese President Hu Jintao’s statement on Thursday that China should become a “maritime power” but said it hoped for warmer relations with Beijing under a new leader.
“We know that they are a superpower. As to the details of that, we would let the DFA (Department of Foreign Affairs) answer that first,” presidential spokesperson Edwin Lacierda told a press briefing in the Palace.
At the opening of 18th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, Hu called for the enhancement of the country’s capability to exploit marine resources, safeguard its maritime right and interests, and build China into a maritime power.
Hu’s statements are likely to cause alarm among China’s neighbors, including Vietnam and Japan, which, like the Philippines, are involved in disputes with China over territory in Asian waters.
The Philippines remains in a standoff with China at Panatag Shoal (Scarborough Shoal) in the West Philippine Sea (South China Sea), and is pursuing a diplomatic, political and legal solution to the dispute.
Lacierda said Manila hoped for warmer relations with Beijing under Xi Jinping, the Chinese vice president who is widely expected to become the next leader of China.
Lacierda said Philippine officials should wait at least a year to see how relations with Beiijing would proceed under Xi.
Wait and see
“We certainly hope for a warming of relations but let’s wait and see for them to settle down,” Lacierda said.
“I think it takes a year for the whole transition to be effected. So let’s just wait and see. It’s too early to say,” he added.
President Aquino met with Chinese Vice Minister for Foreign Affairs Fu Ying in late October amid the stalemate over Panatag Shoal.
Days before Fu’s visit, the President said the situation was “a little better” with Beijing, though far from normal. He said he hoped relations with China would become warmer under a new Chinese leadership.
Lacierda said more joint military exercises between the Philippines and the United States would be held under the second term of US President Barack Obama.
More joint maneuvers
Obama was reelected on Tuesday, beating Republican challenger Mitt Romney.
All the joint maneuvers will be held under the Philippines’ Visiting Forces Agreement with the United States, Lacierda said.
President Aquino met with Obama in Washington in June, and both leaders announced a consultation as part of the US “pivot” to Asia military strategy.
Last month, Mr. Aquino promised Philippine cooperation with the US “policy of rebalancing” in the Asia-Pacific region.
Mr. Aquino sent a letter to Obama on Wednesday, congratulating him for winning the US presidential election and saying he was looking forward to a “deeper cooperation” during Obama’s second term.
Lacierda said Mr. Aquino was not going to call Obama because the US president was probably getting many phone calls.
“I think the letter is sufficient,” Lacierda said.
UK call for peace
Meanwhile, the United Kingdom on Thursday renewed its calls to countries with conflicting claims in the West Philippine Sea to settle their disputes according to international law.
Nicole Davis, head of the UK Foreign and Commonweath Office’s Asia-Pacific Security Team, said the British government was keen on seeing a peaceful resolution to tensions in the sea, home to vast mineral deposits and sea-lanes vital to global trade. With a report from Tarra Quismundo

Uber plans to roll out an in-app feature later this month that allows Greenville passengers to tip their drivers.
The ride-hailing service introduced the tipping feature earlier this month in three U.S. markets – Seattle, Minneapolis, and Houston. It has since made the feature available in Charleston and 120 other cities.
The feature will be available in Greenville and Columbia by the end of July.
Passengers will be able to tip $1, $2, $5, or a custom amount. Riders are not required to tip drivers, and unlike normal fares, Uber will not take a cut of the tips.
For years, Uber has refused to introduce a tipping feature that would add gratuity to passengers’ credit cards, claiming it would interrupt its “seamless” checkout process and make customers feel pressured to pay more.
The issue became more complicated when South Carolina and 12 other states banned Uber and Lyft drivers from accepting cash in 2015. Moreover, Lyft has allowed passengers to tip drivers since it arrived in South Carolina last summer.
Uber decided to roll out tipping as part of its “180 days of change campaign,” which aims to make amends with its drivers, who have complained about fares for years.
The company has seen a sharp drop in retention rates for new drivers in the U.S., according to analysis of the Uber driver app by analytics firm Apptopia. The firm estimates that 30-day user retention for the Uber driver app in the U.S. has dropped 47 percent from January through May.
The decrease could be a result of a series of scandals, including claims of sexual harassment at Uber’s corporate offices and the release of a video of the company’s founder Travis Kalanick berating a driver who complained about fares.
Kalanick resigned as CEO last month, and Uber said it would put a new emphasis on collecting driver feedback in order to improve their experience. However, Lyft has since cut into Uber’s market share.

Great color, knots are big
I was looking for a pair of slides similar to last season's snakeskin ones from The Row. They have a nice muted gold color, but the knots are incredibly pronounced and make the shoe look a little ridiculous from the side. To each his/her own I guess. It's an otherwise comfortable shoe.

Former Salinas Jaycees Treasurer Arrested for Embezzlement
July 14, 2011
Alexander Harvey turned himself in to the Salinas Police Department today and was subsequently arrested on charges of embezzling $25,000 from the Salinas Jaycees when he was the organization's treasurer.
Other members of the Jaycees, also known as the Salinas Junior Chamber of Commerce, contacted the Salinas PD on Feb. 22 to express their suspicions that Harvey had abused his access to the Jaycees' bank account and checkbook. Those suspicions were backed up by paperwork, which detectives used to track the numerous personal purchases Harvey made with Jaycees funds.
Harvey, who served as treasurer for the Jaycees from Jan.-Dec. 2010, also allegedly took $850 from another account that was traced to The Scottish Society of the Monterey Peninsula.
Investigations Sgt. Christopher Lane said his department issued a search warrant for Harvey's bank records. He also praised the Jaycees' documentation of the incidents.
"Fraud cases always take long because of paperwork issues, but this was sped along by the Jaycees' having all the paperwork together," Lane said.

The influence of psychological factors on self-reported physiological effects of noise
J Hatfield, RFS Job, NL Carter, P Peploe, R Taylor, S Morrell
January-March 2001, 3(10):1-13
We examine the possibility that physiological effects of noise may result not only from noise exposure per se, but also from people's beliefs about the noise. Due to widely publicised changes to the runway configuration at Sydney Airport, aircraft noise levels in nearby areas were expected to either increase, decrease or remain the same. As part of the Sydney Airport Health Study, residents in each of these 3 expected-change areas (N=1015) completed a structured interview which included indices of noise reaction (including annoyance) and physical and mental health, prior to the anticipated changes. Concurrent (pre-change) measures of aircraft noise levels were taken. Self-reported physiological/health effects differed across areas with the same aircraft noise level consistently with differences in psychological reaction across these areas. Expected change in noise level added to the level of self-reported physiological symptoms predicted by noise level in regression analyses. Dose-response functions differed across the expected-change areas. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that noise exposure produces physiological symptoms, but that expectations regarding future noise levels also contribute to the physiological impact of noise, which may be reduced by addressing psychosocial factors related to noise reaction.
The impact of perceived tinnitus severity on health-related quality of life with aspects of gender
Soly I Erlandsson, Kajsa-Mia Holgers
January-March 2001, 3(10):39-51
The Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) has been used to investigate the health profiles in different medical conditions. It has, however, never been applied to tinnitus sufferers. The present study aimed at investigating relationships between the perceived severity of tinnitus, audiometric data, age, gender and non-disease specific health-related quality of life measured with the NHP divided into two sections; NHP I (topics related to health status) and NHP II (health induced problems in daily life). These parameters were statistically analysed to identify predictive factors to the perceived severity of tinnitus, described by the Tinnitus Severity Questionnaire (TSQ). A total of 186 consecutive tinnitus patients (57 females and 129 males) attending an audiological specialist clinic in Sweden were included in the study. The stepwise regression model used explained 37.8 per cent of the variance in the perceived severity of tinnitus, and the significant predictors were: "Emotions", "Sleep", and "Pain", three of the six dimensions of the NHP I. Differences between gender were found in NHP II and age-related differences emerged in NHP I when male and female patients were compared to normal controls.
Considerations on assessing the risk of work-related hearing loss
Donald Henderson, Thais C Morata, Roger P Hamernik
January-March 2001, 3(10):63-75
The large intersubject variability observed in demographic studies of noise-induced hearing loss illustrates how difficult it can be to estimate with precision the risk posed by exposure to noise. One possible source of the variability is the result of evaluating a diverse set of acoustic conditions with a simple metric A-weighted energy. In this paper the limitations of the energybased criteria are reviewed. The benefits of evaluating a noise exposure in terms of energy and the metrics of frequency and time-domain kurtosis are discussed. A second source of variability in industrial noise studies may be related to non-acoustic factors such as chemical exposures that contribute to hearing loss acquired on the job
Tinnitus, attendance at night-clubs and social drug taking in students
EA Meecham, KI Hume
January-March 2001, 3(10):53-62
A questionnaire was used to collect data from 545 students of the Manchester Metropolitan University. The aim of the study was to investigate associations between the attendance of university students at night-clubs (NCs) that play loud music and the incidence and duration of post exposure tinnitus (PET) and spontaneous tinnitus (ST). The possible effects of taking social drugs in NCs on tinnitus was also investigated. Descriptive analyses and Chi squared association analyses were carried out. The study showed that 87% of students attended noisy NCs and there was a significant association between the attendance at NCs and the duration of PET. There was no significant association between frequency of attendance and the incidence of tinnitus, however non attendees were significantly less likely to get ST. The amount of social drug-taking was not as high as expected, only 19% taking drugs more than rarely, although the incidence may be under-reported. Taking drugs while at night-clubs would appear to exacerbate the effects of noise exposure on tinnitus. Non drug taking males were less susceptible to PET lasting longer than 2 hours and ST than non drug taking females, whereas drug taking males were more susceptible than drug taking females. Whereas PET has yet to be proved to be related to auditory damage, this study would suggest the effect of nightclub noise exposure impedes tinnitus recovery and could prove to be an early sign of permanent damage.
Evaluation of transient and distortion product otoacoustic emissions before and after shooting practice
Wieslaw Konopka, Piotr Zalewski, Piotr Pietkiewicz
January-March 2001, 3(10):29-37
Firearms are a common source of impulse noise that may potentially damage a hearing organ. It is not easy to predict soldiers' personal susceptibility to noise exposure. The purpose of this study was to evaluate of the transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) and distortion-product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) before and after shooting and compare it with conventional pure tone audiometry. Standard pure tone audiometry, tympanometry, TEOAE and DPOAE measurements were recorded before and 10-15 minutes after shooting. Ten male soldiers (20 ears) were exposed to impulse noise from automatic gunfire (15 single rounds of live ammunition). They did not use any earplugs. The reduction in amplitude of the TEOAE after shooting was 3.1 and 5.1 as SPL for 3 and 4 kHz respectively for the right ear and 4.3 dB SPL for 1 kHz and 0.6 dB SPL at 2 kHz for the left ear. The greatest reduction in DPOAE occurred at frequencies of 1.0 kHz (3.8dB SPL) and 3.0 kHz (2.9 dB SPL) for the left ear. There were no differences in the audiometric thresholds before and after shooting. Emissions appear to be more sensitive for monitoring early cochlear changes after shooting, than pure tone audiometry.
The development of noise-induced hearing loss in the Swedish County of Ostergotland in the 1980s and 1990s.
Magnus Johansson, Stig Arlinger
January-March 2001, 3(10):15-28
This retrospective cross-sectional study of median hearing threshold levels of males employed in two specific occupations shows that the trend with decreasing noise-induced hearing loss in Sweden during the 1970s and 1980s continues into the 1990s. In the occupational categories mechanical work and wood processing men in age groups 30-39, 40-49 and 50-59 years old examined during the time period 1971-76, 1981-86 and 1991-96 were compared. Possible explanations to the improvement might be a wider use of hearing protectors at work and less exposure to noise during military service. The results show that the awareness of noise-induced occupational hearing loss has improved but the hearing conservation programs are still necessary as hearing threshold levels in these occupational groups continue to be poorer than expected in relation to age.

Leela leaps up and rips the circlet from the Doctor's head, while Borusa insists the Matrix has rejected the Doctor. The Surgeon-General has the Doctor taken away for treatment while insisting the Doctor is President over Borusa's objections. The aliens grow impatient and increase speed toward Gallifrey.
Borusa and Leela go to visit the Doctor, who has recovered. Borusa claims Leela tried to kill the Doctor and the Doctor orders her exiled outside of the Citadel, as aliens aren't allowed. Leela makes a break for it and Andred alerts the guards. The Doctor continues to spar with Borusa and warns that they are all in danger as long as Leela is at large in the Citadel.
In Borusa's office, the Doctor quickly recovers and dons the Sash of Rassilon, but realizes he can't leave with the guards outside. He finds a hidden passageway and manages to figure out it's keyed to a certain phrase, then opens it and leaves. Leela spots him and secretly follows him, while Andred and Kelner spot him and Leela on the security monitors and Andred goes to get her. The Doctor goes to the TARDIS and seals it, leaving Leela outside to be arrested. The Doctor and K9 can hear her pounding on the doors but ignore her and she is forced to run away.
While Andred tries to get into the TARDIS, the Doctor and K9 compute the odds of his plan's success. The odds increase significantly once the Doctor reveals he knows where the security chamber is and plans to tamper with the transduction field. K9 notes the odds of the Doctor's plan increase significantly if that occurs.
Leela makes her way to Space Traffic Control center where she confronts Rodan, the Time Lady in charge of the facility. Rodan is unimpressed with Leela and can't be bothered to tell security about the alien. She notes that no one can bring down the transduction barriers. Meanwhile, the Doctor emerges from the TARDIS to confront Andred and repeat his instructions to have Leela exiled. Kelner, who has been monitoring the situations, begins to consider his own plans.
After Andred leaves with the Chancellery Guards, another guard arrives with the keys, and K9 stuns him as he emerges and goes on his mission. Kelner confronts Borusa who wants to see the Doctor. They return just in time to find the Doctor back in the room having come back through the secret passage. Kelner keeps his silence about the Doctor's whereabouts and the Doctor calls a council meeting. Rodan lets Leela into the control center just as she picks up an alien ship approaching Gallifrey and raises the transduction barrier. Beneath the Citadel, K9 destroys the transduction circuitry and Rodan sounds the alert. In the Pantopticon, the Doctor confronts the council and introduces them to their new masters… the Vardans. The aliens teleport in as the Doctor laughs maniacally.


Bosch 4000 tablesaw suddenly ran backwards and died
Was operating my Bosch 4000. After ripping 3 thin pieces, the unloaded motor started to run backwards, then died. Won't start now. Outlet is fine. Checked the bearings, which look fine. This saw has been very reliable for the last 4 years. Could this be a capacitor or controller issue?? Thanks for any help.
Re: Bosch 4000 tablesaw suddenly ran backwards and died
I had a customer bring me a saw with this same problem. All components tested OK on my growler. I went on a limb since the speed control and the armature tested OK. I replaced the feild since to me it seemed to be the only component that could cause the motor to run in reverse. Tool now works properly and have had no more problems with the tool.

Tip: The max point reward for answering a question is 15.
Possibly something has jammed inside the motor housing although unlikely.
Electric brake seized perhaps?
Carbon brushes need replaced?
These saws (and the newer 4100) have a history of motor problems, with the field winding and electronic motor speed control being the most common points of failure. If you go to an online tool parts supplier like toolpartsdirect- Bosch 4000 saw you will see a list of the parts available, as well as the most commonly ordered parts.
I have found the most common issue is a bad field with the second being a bad rear armature bearing and last being a bad speed control.
Most of the time slow speed or even running backwards is a bad field (part #2 on the breakdown) #1619PA5590
Remove the cap on the end of the motor & the 2 carbon brushes.
Remove the 4 screws holding the motor to the frame and pull it straight off.
Check the bearing on the end of the armature to ensure it is not frozen or stiff. If it is also check the rubber boot that sits over the bearing and the motor housing itself to ensure it is not melted.
I've worked on some table saws with problems like you describe, a couple needed a new speed control unit (Bosch PN 2610997306) in the motor. If all the wiring to and inside the motor is OK and not shorting out anywhere, that's the next part you should look at.
You can find the 4000 manuals and parts diagram at bosch tools online. You will need a new armture Bnew bushes and possibly field. I would also replace the bearings and motor speed control circuit board.
Bosch does not sell the motor assembly.
Turn unit upside down and remove the Plastic body - approx 6 screws.
Thake a digital camera and take LOTS of pictures of dissassembly as you will need them later. Blow unit clean and work neatly keeping all parts in labeled bins for reassembly. Don't attempt this job when your pressed for time.
Before you start check to see if this machine is still under warranty!!
Call customer support listed on website if you run into a problem.
Good Luck !!
I found that the remaining problem was a intermittent at the switch, which disassembly and cleaning resolved.
Tilting the motor / blade assembly down allows access from below, to the 3 screws fastening the controller circuit board cover on the brush end of the motor. From there, one can easily test exposed wires for power supply, see that brushes are contacting and clean accumulated sawdust.
Replace the field coil. I'm going to bet its a Model 4000. I have done about 100 of these saws in the last couple of years and my customers always complain of the same problem, "the saw was running backwards"
Change the armature back bearing while you have it apart, they always seize eventually.
Is it spinning the blade at all? If it is then it is unlikely to be an electrical fault. Have you considered a motor bearing fault? If the motor bearings are worn, it could turn freely by hand, but when powered up it would stutter and stall. The motor is basically a big electro-magnet so if the armature has enough lateral movement, when it is magnetized it could rub against the stator.
If the machine is buzzing, but not spinning the blade it is more than likely going to be caused by a faulty capacitor as this is the component that gives the motor the initial 'kick' in the right direction to get it spinning.


Thales and L3Harris battle for SINCGARS modernisation orders
Thales Defense and Security and L3Harris Technologies have been chosen by US Army Contracting Command to compete for each order under a $6.11 billion contract to modernise Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS) radios in line with cryptographic modernisation requirements from the National Security Agency.
There were no other bidders in the process, the DoD disclosed on 25 March.
Work locations and funding will be determined with each order, with an estimated completion date of 24 March 2032.
SINCGARS and its associated router are used by the US Army for its tactical internet. The SINCGARS system, which was once a voice-only radio that broadcast messages up and down the chain of command, has evolved into an open-architecture system with networking capabilities.

Santa Clara is a small village in the municipality of Tizimin, Yucatan State, Mexico. The word Tizimin means tapir in the Maya language. With the Spanish conquest of Yucatán, Tizimín was established as a Spanish colonial town in 1544. Santa Clara is several kilometers east of Tizimin and is known as a fishing village. It is not far from Isla Pajaros (Bird Island) where guano can be harvested.
Santa Clara is a palenque or a settlement established by runaway slaves and the natives who took them in and intermarried with them. The inhabitants of Santa Clara were termed palenqueros who speak various Spanish-African-based creole languages as well as Mayan. While some might refer to the people of Santa Clara as Zambos the Spanish who had to fight them referred to them as Lobos meaning "wolves." It is no wonder that pirates, buccaneers and cutthroats of all sorts find home in Santa Clara.

The best way I have found to increase speed is to use a shot timer as others have mentioned.
I use IPSC Shot Timer Pro on my iPhone with a set of ear buds under my muffs.
It works perfectly at our indoor range even with other shooters close by.
The drill I use is simple and can be adapted to your type of shooting.
I load 2 rounds into the magazine in the gun and a full spare mag.
I use an IPSC target but a USPSA is just as good.
Draw and fire 2 shots reload on slide lock and shoot 2 more.
The reason I use this drill set up in this method is that you get to practice a reload at the same time.
Always reload with a full mag which keeps the weight of the mag constant.
You don't want to practice with a mag holding 2 rounds which is lighter and will not handle the same.
By using an IPSC or USPSA target you have a realistically sized "A" zone.
If all your shots are in the "A" zone you are shooting too slowly.
If your shots are not in the "A" zone at all you are shooting too rapidly.
A few lessons with a local instructor can really help you out by improving your stance and grip.
I took a local intro to IPSC course which helps by also watching others shoot and see their errors and see what corrective measures were needed to improve their technique.
When drawing and firing each individual step should be performed and when put together creates a blueprint for repeatability.
1)grip. Drive the web of your hand between the thumb and index finger into the butt of the gun with your index finger pointed straight out and wrap your fingers around the grip maintaining a straight trigger finger.
2)Draw. Draw the gun straight up and out of the holster so that the muzzle clears the holster while still maintaining a straight trigger finger.
3) Rotate. Rotate the gun so that the muzzle points forward.
4) Raise. Raise the firearm up to eye level, quite close to your face, while the support hand comes across to find its place on the grip.
5) Extend. While extending your arms forward, acquire your sight picture and place your index finger on the trigger.
6) Shoot. Squeeze the trigger.
7) Reload. Trigger finger straight against the frame. Release the magazine while simultaneously bringing the gun closer to your face. Use your index finger on your support hand to guide the tip of the magazine home.
Slingshot the slide, sights on target while extending and putting trigger finger on trigger.

It does not matter what your sense of style may be, trying out new methods of expressing yourself can be a lot of fun in a fashion game.
If you’ve ever dreamed of opening your own clothing boutique, designing your own line of clothes, or walking the runway for the hottest designers, these games are a great way to get a feel for the industry without spending a fortune.
We’ve got a wide variety of fashion games that you can play on Nintendo Switch that let you live out your wildest fantasies, whether you want to be a top designer or get lost in a story about a romance centered on the world of fashion. If you want to purse-shoe your dreams, you’ve come to the right place.
Without further ado, let’s hit the catwalk with some of the most impressive fashion games available for the Switch.
Top 8 Nintendo Switch fashion games
Support us! If you Buy Games using our affiliate link, we receive a small affiliate commission at no extra cost to you. That’s a great way of supporting us.
1. My Universe – Fashion Boutique
This one is probably the most conventional and fashion-y fashion game that you can find on Switch, and it unquestionably fulfills the requirements of the niche admirably.
As you embark on a journey to realize your dream of becoming the most successful fashion designer in the world, you will be tasked with managing your very own boutique, launching your very own fashion brand from the ground up, and showcasing your exquisite designs to the entire world.
My Universe – Fashion Boutique delivers the ideal experience for playing a fashion-themed video game on Switch by providing a wealth of personalization options to explore, a variety of enjoyable minigames to participate in, and outstanding events that take place in all of the world’s fashion capitals.
2. Selfy Collection – The Dream Fashion Stylist
The lovable and well-liked avatar known as “Selfy” is now available for the Nintendo Switch system in the game Selfy Collection – The Dream Fashion Stylist, which features dreamy outfit combinations.
As you explore the world and style incredible outfits, you can work your way up to becoming a successful new stylist in the competitive fashion industry.
Help a wide variety of characters with their coordination requests by selecting hair, clothing, accessories, and other items from a catalogue containing over 5,000 different items.
After you have selected the outfit of your dreams, you can establish your own exclusive portfolio that you can show off to your friends while simultaneously gaining knowledge about the exquisite and fashionable clothing that is prevalent in Japan.
All of this can be done while you are learning about Japanese fashion.
It has a lovely design, it is very cute, and there is a lot of room for experimentation in terms of layering accessories, bows, and other things.
If you can get past the fact that the game was originally developed in Japanese and therefore contains some typos in its translation, you will find that it is a charming and soothing experience that is well worth a try. The original version of the game was written in Japanese.
3. Princess Closet
Princess Closet is the best option for you to go with if you want some romance to be a part of your fashion game and you want to have fun doing it.
Princess Closet may be more of an otome game or dating sim than a traditional stylist-dress up game, but it still provides you with a fantastic story that focuses on fashion, along with a cast of charming love interests and titillating tales to draw you in.
You play the part of a young lady who has a strong interest in fashion but has become disillusioned with her daily routine and the unsatisfying office job she has.
At that point, an up-and-coming fashion designer named Leo enters her life and whisks her away into an exciting new world. There, she begins a journey to become the next top model and works with him to achieve this goal.
Princess Closet is a delightful graphic novel with full voice acting, gorgeous art, and some lovely alternate routes, marketed toward those who “want to enjoy heart-throbbing affair, while enjoying fashion.”
On mobile, you can play it for free, but it requires tickets and has microtransactions to unlock certain side stories, whereas the Switch version allows you to play the entire game right away without having to pay anything.
Check out our ranked list of the best otome games if you want some additional romantic game suggestions if you find that you like this one and are looking for more.
4. Pocket Clothier
In this adorable pixel game, you take control of your very own clothing store and work to build it into a world-famous super brand.
Embrace your inner fashionista and put Vivienne Westwood to shame as you create engaging stands, promotions, and layouts to attract customers.
Once you have their attention, you can offer them fashion advice and assist them in coordinating ensembles for important events.
Giving your customers advice on how to improve their appearance can even open up new professional doors for them, which brings in additional revenue for your shop.
To sum it up, Pocket Clothier is a charming fashion-focused business simulation with a charming retro aesthetic and engaging gameplay.
5. L.O.L Surprise! Movie Night
L.O.L. Surprise! Movie Night is a 3-dimensional adventure game that is based on the super popular toy brand of the same name.
In this game, your objective is to become a top movie star by dressing up in the most up-to-date fashion as you walk the red (or pink) carpet.
While you are dressing up your own character and studio, you can use the Glitter Tokens you earn in your exciting new career to buy adorable accessories and outfits.
You can also explore a world that is full of fun and is filled with movie sets, minigames, and events to participate in. L.O.L. Surprise! Movie Night provides its dolls with both an impressive wardrobe as well as a collection of cute outfits in which they can demonstrate their star power.
6. Surprise! L.O.L. Remix: We Rule The World
We Rule the World is the first game in the L.O.L. Surprise! universe, and it gives you a fresh start with a brand-new house and an empty closet that are completely up to you to design and decorate however you see fit.
We Rule the World is a similar game to Movie Night in that it offers a fun 3D world for you to explore, a ton of different accessories and outfits for you to try on, and a ton of different minigames, quests, and other activities for you to enjoy.
In We Rule the World, rather than being a movie star, you play the role of an aspiring musical artist who performs on stage and at festivals. Because of this, it is imperative that you present the best version of yourself to your audience.
If you really want to show off your inner fashionista, you can even take pictures of yourself and your friends dressed in the newest fashions.
7. Pripara All Idol Perfect Stage (ALL IDOL PERFECT STAGE) (JP)
This rhythm game is exclusive to Japan and utilizes a gacha system for allowing players to unlock various articles of clothing. (Not intended for use in microtransactions; uses in came currency)
The majority of the garments are very colorful and exude a vibe that can only be described as “Japanese idol.”
The components of clothing are the hat, the top (or dress), the skirt or pants, and the shoes. It is obvious that it is intended for a younger audience.
You are free to mix and match the pieces, but it is fun to see how they are styled together.
Since the menus are written in a way that is straightforward, the fact that you do not know Japanese is not an obstacle.
If you don’t already enjoy playing rhythm games, you probably won’t find this one enjoyable.
8. Make Your Debut As a Model #nicola (JP)
Another game that is exclusive to Japan, but holy cow, this one is the real MVP.
I believe you are employed at a modeling agency, and in addition to that, you design the covers of fashion magazines.
There are some other smaller events, such as dating and runways, included in this game.
Your player character can be dressed however you like by purchasing new outfits, cosmetics, and hairstyles.
There are some modeling jobs that provide you with a wardrobe that is separate from the clothes you already own, while there are other jobs that require you to wear the clothes you already have.
You will be given a prompt for an outfit, and within that prompt will be keywords enclosed in brackets.
If you scroll through the search menus for those keywords, you will be able to determine the type of outfit that the prompter is looking for.
Without knowing Japanese, it is possible to memorize the rules of this game and learn how to play it through trial and error.
However, there are certain situations in which you will need to consult a translator.
It’s true that acquiring games that are exclusive to Japan can be a challenge, but if you’re looking for a Switch title that focuses on fashion and offers a good time, this is your best bet.

Skye again, otter watching again, a head-full of Gavin Maxwell again.
Part of my life’s recurring pattern. And with every Skye otter, I remember something from Ring of Bright Water that staggered my teenage mind when I first read it, an account of Maxwell’s reunion with his otter Mijbil after it had been missing for two days.
“I am aware that this scene of reunion, and the hours that for me had preceded it, must appear to many a reader little short of nauseous. I might write of it and subsequent events with a wry dishonesty, a negation of my feeling for the creature, which might disarm criticism and forestall the accusation of sentimentality and slushiness to which I now lay myself open.
“There is, however, a certain obligation of honesty upon a writer, without which his words are worthless… I knew by that time that Mij meant more to me than most human beings of my acquaintance, that I should miss his physical presence more than theirs, and I was not ashamed of it… I knew that Mij trusted me more utterly than did any of my own kind, and so supplied a need that we are slow to admit.”
Something locked into place then. I wanted this kind of writing in my life, this kind of emotional commitment to the natural world. It would be another 23 years before I began to write about the natural world for a living, but when I did it was with Maxwell’s words for a first commandment: “There is, however, a certain obligation of honesty upon a writer, without which his words are worthless…”
But I did not choose his path. I have never adopted a wild animal. I only ever wanted to adopt something of their wildness, to become an acceptable part of their landscape, to acquire from them ways of coming closer to nature. But Gavin Maxwell – more than any other individual or circumstance – finally revealed to me the path I did choose.
They say there is an otter territory for every mile of the Skye coast. I don’t know. I know many miles of the Skye coast, some intimately. And better by far than examining every mile of the Skye coast is to get to know one of its miles inside out and backwards, discover the preferences of the local otters, and wait for the otters to come to you.
Isle Ornsay, early morning, and after an hour of sitting there is a new pattern on the water 20 yards offshore, made by an otter muzzle from which a vee-shaped wedge spills, grey ripples edged by white light.
No sooner has he turned up than he vanishes. The same old frustration. Resist it, sit still. In 20 more minutes he is back in exactly the same place.
He looks like a log floating at the speed of the current, but then he curves towards me, puts one forefoot on my rock, while his muzzle tests the air not 15 feet away. He has come to inspect me. Then he turns in his own length and leaves me a parcel of bubbles for a parting gift. And now I know he knows I’m here.
I have proved to myself this one thing over and over again: if you can be still and allow nature to come to you, that is when nature is freest with her secrets.
Another hour, then quite suddenly the otter is lying on his back in the water, eating an eel from his “hands”, even as the eel writhes. Otters like their food fresh.
He dives, discards the eel half-eaten. Why? He resurfaces with a huge crab in his jaws. That’s why.
But he cannot eat the crab the way he eats an eel, he needs a rock. He chooses mine, the same one he chose the last time, and a thousand times before the last time. He climbs out, drops the crab. I hear it hit the rock. I hear his teeth take hold of it. I hear the shell crack and I see it splinter. A small, brittle rain of crab shell falls.
He takes a pace up the rock, turns his back on me, and the crab flakes start to fall again. Occasionally he looks over a shoulder at me. In 10 minutes, he has reduced the crab to shell sand. He steps off, leaves me a new parcel of bubbles…
Gavin Maxwell wrote a simple epitaph to another of his otters, Edal. It appears on a small memorial cairn at Sandaig: “Whatever joy you had from her, give back to nature.”
I picked a small stone from the Sandaig shore years ago, and I wrote those words on it. It is still on my bookshelves, so that his words are before me every working day of my writing life.

Shaftesbury Avenue might not be traditional bear-hunting territory, but young adventure-seekers would be well advised to beat a path this summer holidays to the Lyric Theatre where Michael Rosen’s much-loved classic We’re Going on a Bear Hunt has been imaginatively translated to the stage by Sally Cookson (until 8 September).
The story follows an intrepid family who surmount various obstacles — long grass, oozy mud, a deep, cold river, a swirling snowstorm and a big dark forest — in their quest to find a bear. When they finally track him down in a gloomy cave, they take one look at his shiny wet nose and goggly eyes and scarper, hotfooting it back the way they came to take refuge at home under a large pink eiderdown.
All this is brought vividly to life by a sextet of performers that includes an impressively lifelike puppet-baby and an unusually benign-looking brown bear. Rosen’s rhythmic, repetitive text, which so captivates young listeners, is at the core of the production but equally engaging is a mix of catchy tunes, comic dance routines and audience participation. Best of all, though, was being squirted with monster water pistols (cue: squeals of delight) and blanketed in fake snow.
The ending has been given the Hollywood treatment so that the bear no longer trudges back alone, crestfallen, to his dank cave but instead joins the rest of the cast for a jig and a jolly singsong. I thought that was a bit of a shame but I don’t think most of the audience even noticed.

Charge storage mechanisms of electrodeposited MnO2 in various aprotic ionic liquids (ILs) are studied using in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The analytical results show that a unique thiocyanate (SCN-) anion can reversibly insert/desert into/from the tunnels between the [MnO6] octahedral subunits depending on the applied potential. This process charge compensates the Mn3+/Mn4+ redox transition upon charging-discharging and thus contributes to an ideal pseudocapacitive behavior of the MnO2 electrode. The present work would open up a route for developing a novel oxide-based supercapacitor, with high cell-voltage, high thermal stability, and high safety, incorporating IL electrolytes.

After three days of sampling various cuisines in Guyana, four chefs based in the United States of America recently returned home with their taste buds tingling after visiting several local restaurants.
Their aim was not simply to devour, but also learn of the culinary aspect of Guyana, since one of the Chefs is Guyanese-born Tavel Bristol Joseph, who will be opening a new restaurant in Texas, called Canje, named after Guyana’s national bird, the Canje Pheasant.
Joseph, who migrated years ago, has made quite a name for himself over the years. He is the co-owner of Emmer and Rye, Hestia, Kalimotxo, Henbit and TLV- all food establishments in the US.
Rand Egbert, who heads the team’s operations, said: “The cuisine is unique in the sense that there are only certain types of fruits and vegetables known to this area, as well as the different diaspora of ethnicities that exist and all the influence they have on food.”
Their focus is on Austin, Texas, which is their home, but Egbert said it “sounds fun” to possibly open a restaurant here in the future.
He complimented the friendly atmosphere in Guyana and when they had access to local products they were rich and bold, which he felt enhanced the culinary preparation.
The team went as far as Victoria, East Coast Demerara, to dine, Alberttown, Windjammer Restaurant and Stabroek Market.
