Milo Yiannopoulos resigned from Breitbart minutes before he addressed recent pedophilia comments he made that sparked outrage across the nation and announced he will now starting a new “independently funded” media venture.
“Breitbart News has stood by me when others caved. They allowed me to carry conservative and libertarian ideas to communities that would otherwise never have heard them. They have been a significant factor in my success. I’m grateful for that freedom and for the friendships I forged here,” Yiannopoulos said in a statement.
He continued: “I would be wrong to allow my poor choice of words to detract from my colleagues’ important reporting, so today I am resigning from Breitbart, effective immediately. This decision is mine alone.”
On Sunday, a video surfaced in which Yiannopoulos said some relationships between adults and 13-year-olds are consensual. The Breitbart editor and outspoken Donald Trump supporter also joked that being molested had made him good at oral sex.
“I am horrified by pedophilia,” he said during the press conference. “I do not support child abuse.”
During Tuesday’s press conference, Yiannopoulos said he will continue to make jokes and mock issues that are often considered controversial. His pedophilia comments have resulted in being uninvited to speak at CPAC, Simon & Schuster canceling his book deal and now he has stepped down as the Breitbart tech editor.
Yiannopoulos concluded his resignation statement: “When your friends have done right by you, you do right by them. For me, now, that means stepping aside to my colleagues at Breitbart can get back to the great work they do.”
Yiannopoulos said his book, “Dangerous,” has received interest from other publishers.
“The book will come out this year as planned, with perhaps an additional chapter,” he said before adding that 10 percent of proceeds will help support child abuse charities.
Yiannopoulos said that a new “independently funded” media venture will be announced shortly and a live tour that he called the “Troll Academy Tour” will kick off this year.
“I started my career as a technology editor who wrote about politics but I have since mutated and grown into something quite different,” he said. “I’m now a performer with millions of fans… I look forward to making you all laugh, cry and think for many, many decades to come. My full focus is now going to be on entertaining and educating everyone.”
He previously defended his comments on Facebook: “I am a gay man, and a child abuse victim… My own experiences as a victim led me to believe I could say anything I wanted to on this subject, no matter how outrageous.”

Ask West St. John coach Robert Valdez, and he can list off numerous reasons as to why the Rams are poised to make another deep postseason run in 2013.
But the sixth-year skipper wants more than just a convincing argument heading into the fall – he wants proof – which inspired West St. John’s mantra for the upcoming season.
“Don’t show them, tell them,” Valdez said. “We don’t really want to talk about it, we want to just let our play speak for itself. We want to be able to come out and get better every time we play.
“We understand the expectations, we understand what it is that we represent, especially for our program and our community. We’re just trying to come out and get a little bit better every week.”
Those expectations stem from a promising 2012 campaign that ended in a 9-4 record and a trip to the semi-finals of the Class 1A playoffs as a sixth seed.
The Rams swept through district play to take the 8-1A title, averaging nearly 53 points per game in league contests.
West St. John eventually fell by a point to second-seeded Haynesville in the playoffs, but the squad is expecting that same high-powered offense to be back this season, fueled by four-time starters in quarterback Austin Howard and tailback Jeremy Jackson.
“We have some offensive experience,” Valdez said, adding wide receivers Keith Miller and Morell Bartholomew to his list of explosive playmakers. “On the offensive line, we’re going to be pretty big too. We’ve got some kids that don’t have too much experience, but they’re going to give me everything they’ve got.”
With the offensive weapons Valdez has in place for 2013, a merely adequate defense would likely give the Rams another successful season.
West St. John has to replace eight starters on the defensive side of the ball, but Valdez still believes the group can be formidable, led by hybrid defensive end/linebacker Brandon Matthews and the “quarterback in the defensive backfield” in free safety Kylon Adams.
“I think defensively, we lost a lot … and its almost a rebuilding year,” Valdez said. “We’re going to have some youth, but I think we’re going to be a little bit perkier and flying around a little bit more. I’m excited for a kid like Kylon to take the helm and be a leader for us.”
The Rams limited opponents to just around 16 points per game last season, never giving up more than 22 in any one contest.
West St. John opens the 2013 season with a jamboree against Class 5A rival East St. John on Aug. 30 in the newly named Railroad Classic.
The regular season opens Sept. 6 against St. James, marking the end of a full summer of 7-on-7’s, workouts and practices.
“We’ve really been grinding and pushing the kids and challenging the kids,” Valdez said. "I’m very pleased with how our kids are working and the effort that we’re getting from them.”

We did not grow watermelon this year, but we have bought a couple at the Farmer’s Market and I saved the seeds from a very nice small and sweet one to grow next year. I just washed the seeds and let soak a little while in a glass and then spread on a plate to dry. I store all my seeds in envelopes in the fridge.
If the watermelon is sweet, I like to eat it as it is or with a little salt. This year we even took some cut in quartered slices with popsicle sticks in the rinds to a party. I have seen this in at least three magazines this year, so I thought we should give it a try. Our two year old friend Eva thought they were wonderful.
Believe it or not, you can also freeze watermelon. I think this works best if you plan to use it blended in drinks. To do so, only use firm-fleshed, well-colored, ripe melons that are free from blemishes. Cut in half, remove seeds and rind. Cut melons into slices, cubes or balls as desired. Spread melon pieces in a single layer on a cookie sheet and freeze them until firm. Once firm, transfer to containers or plastic freezer bags and freeze eight to 12 months. Melon can also be frozen in a juice pack. Pack fruit in suitable containers as above and pour pineapple juice, orange juice or ginger ale to cover fruit before freezing.
If we have guests, I love to make watermelon salad. It is always good, but doesn’t do well as a left over, hence the need for sharing. Here is my favorite recipe, but you can riff on this in lots of ways adding your favorite dressing, tossing in capers and olives or changing up the cheese:
1 7-8 lb. seedless watermelon, chilled
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 limes, juiced
1 1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. black pepper
1 cup fresh chopped mint leaves
1 1/2 cups crumbled feta cheese
Cut watermelon flesh into 1 inch cubes. Mix oil, limes, salt, pepper and mint to make dressing. Mix together all ingredients about an hour before serving and chill. Serve cold.
And, if you really don’t want to waste any of your watermelon, I recommend making watermelon rind pickles. These are the most beautiful pickles on our shelf. They are a sweet pickle especially good with bar-b-que or pork.
Watermelon Rind Pickles
2 quarts watermelon rind (equal to one medium-sized melon)
3/4 cup salt
3 quarts water
5 cups sugar
3 cups white vinegar
3 cups water
1 T whole cloves
6 cinnamon sticks
1 T Allspice
1 lemon, thinly sliced, no seeds
You will need a sharp knife to trim the pink flesh and the green outer skin from the rind. Leave a little touch of the pink flesh because it makes pretty pickles with the pink stripe. Cut into small strips, about 1/2'” x 4" (you can also cut in cubes, but I like the look of the long pickles in the jars. Cover with brine made by combining 3 quarts water and 3/4 cup salt. Refrigerate for an hour. Some people leave these overnight, but I think it makes them too salty. You could rinse and let sit in water overnight.
Drain and rinse watermelon. Cover water and bring to a boil; about another 10 minutes. (Overcooking will cause the rinds to become rubbery.) Drain.
Combine sugar, vinegar, water and spices. Boil 5 minutes and then pour over watermelon. Add lemon slices and refrigerate until cool or overnight.
Heat watermelon in syrup to boiling; reduce heat to medium-high and for 5 more minutes. Pack the hot watermelon pickles lengthwise into clean, hot pint jars. Cover with boiling syrup, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. I also like to put a star anise in each jar for a really nice look. Wipe rims of jars with a dampened clean paper towel; apply two-piece metal lids. Seal for at least 15 minutes in boiling water. Check seals.

UPN is still attracted to "The Opposite Sex," but the network is dumping its new sitcom's rather generic name.
Instead, the series will be called "Eve," after its star, the hip-hop artist/actress who's making her first leap into prime time. She stars as a fashion designer who's trying to fit a little romance into her career-oriented life.
The name change will allow UPN to "better market and promote the new series, capitalizing on Eve's worldwide fan base," the network says.
"Eve" is joining UPN's Monday-night comedy block, which has been a bright spot in the network's lineup in the past year. It will air between established shows "The Parkers" and "Girlfriends."
Ali Landry ("Spy TV"), Natalie Desselle ("For Your Love") and Jason George ("Platinum") also star.

Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani said on Wednesday that the Saudi government perpetrated crimes against humanity in Yemen by indiscriminate bombardment of the civilian targets killing several hundred innocent civilians.
‘We are witnesses to the occurrence of disputes in the Islamic society today. What is really going on (in the Muslim World)? What is this mess that the Saudis have made in Yemen? Is it not enmity against God?’ said Larijani in a meeting with the spouses of the parliamentarians.
The parliament speaker said, “The Takfiri terrorists are today generating disputes among the Islamic Ummah, using religion as a tool at the service of the enemies of Islam and the Muslims need to act as a solid arm to counter that serious plot”.
Larijani reiterated that many of the problems prevailing in the Islamic world are due to the negligence of the Muslims about such plots, which has led to the prevalence of broad corruption in various parts of the Islamic world.
“Isn’t it misdemeanor for a country that claims to be the guardian of Islam that a young man is treated so much beneath the human dignity there and insulted so harshly? Can such a society be called an Islamic society?” he said referring to the defaming of a couple of young Iranian Hajj pilgrims in a Saudi airport.
The parliament speaker further posed the question: Why were the wars against Syria and Yemen launched?
‘The Great Prophet (Peace Be upon Him) says that the Muslims resemble a single body and if a limb of that body is hurt it will lead to pain for the entire body,’ he added.

I think we all saw this coming last November, but things are about to get very real.
An administration source says Trump will withdraw from the Paris accord this week.
President Donald Trump will follow through on a campaign pledge to pull the United States out of a global pact to fight climate change, a source briefed on the decision told Reuters, a move that promises to deepen a rift with U.S. allies.
Trump, who has previously called global warming a hoax, did not confirm the decision in a post on Twitter, saying only, "I will be announcing my decision on the Paris Accord over the next few days."
Trump refused to endorse the landmark climate change accord at a summit of the G7 group of wealthy nations on Saturday, saying he needed more time to decide, and promised an announcement this week.
Immediately after the election, this was the number one thing that literally kept me awake at night. And it's not about me. I'm concerned, as are many people, that my two young nieces are going to inherit a world where irreversible climate change is a fact of life. One of them is traveling to Florida this week with her grandparents but, when she's my age, a significant portion of Florida could be under water.
With all of that said, there are some reasons to be optimistic. Most major cities and some states have already taken their own actions and will remain committed to going green even if the federal government under Trump does not. Because of their size and impact on the environment and economy, major cities under Democratic leadership can and already have made a significant difference. Market forces have also had an impact; solar energy is now among the cheapest forms of energy and, increasingly, it doesn't even make sense to use draw energy from more expensive, dirtier sources.
It's ironic when you consider that Trump's decision could have the greatest negative effect on conservative areas of the country that voted for him; areas where elected leaders are not inclined to take their own initiative. Even some diehard red states have set goals for renewable energy, but those same states are not necessarily prepared to invest in redundancy and adaptation. They aren't prepared for what's coming, but you can bet they'll hold out their hands in Congress when their communities are destroyed.
Meanwhile, this is another major global issue that Trump is ceding American leadership on. Trump already gave up global leadership on trade to China by abandoning the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) and he'll be giving up leadership on climate change to Germany and China if he abandons the Paris climate accord. You know, those Germans, the people Trump says are "very bad."
By withdrawing from the Paris accord, the U.S. will join a very short list of countries that includes Nicaragua and Syria as the only countries not committed to it. Even when Trump is gone, the rest of the world will rightfully remain skeptical of American leadership and doubt our commitments.

Everyone’s been talking about Little Italy lately. This small Ottawa neighbourhood is set to have a major impact on the city in the coming years, with new condo projects, urban transit and light rail stations, and commercial developments all planned for the area.

Ok, i have 3 showtec multidims controlling 3 groups of par56 cans; the last dimmer in the chain has a sound to light function which the others dont have but will make them all flash in sympathy. (sort of) Not that im bothered about it as i control the lights from the mixing booth, but do i need a dmx terminator on the last dimmer in the chain?

DMX512 cable is used to link a DMX512 controller to many DMX512 fixtures. Each fixture has a DMX512 in and usually a DMX512 thru connector. The DMX512 in on the first fixture is connected to the DMX512 out connector on the controller, then the DMX512 thru is connected to the DMX in of the second fixture, and so on. The final, empty, DMX512 thru connector should have a DMX512 terminating plug plugged into it. A DMX terminator is a 120 ohm resistor between pins 2 and 3 of the connector. Fixtures therefore 'daisy-chain' from one to the other. ( i eventually found it out myself!!)
;D yes you need a DMX TERMINATOR for the last dmx dimmer in line or other electrical ie mobile phones etc etc can interfere with the lights (i was told by a lighting salesman in a shop therefore i always used em as i am new to the game.
I have 2 sets of 4 par 56 , i also run on a third dimmer 2x strobes 1 x waterworks fx 1 x flower gobo fx and then i got two mojo spin masters on a dmx connection as well as smoke machine.. i have not had any problems with them whatsoever
i am lucky i guess ;D
i run me lights through the Behringer LC2412 DMX Control Desk
Hi Pete, those Behringer boys have a piece of kit for everything these days. I am looking at replacing my 3x Ryger DX403 controllers with a 24 channel lighting desk and dimmer packs, for my 20x par56 and 2x NJD Quartet colour changer flood-lights. What dimmers are you using?

Actually, the 120 ohm resistor increases the resistance of the over all circuit which is necessary to prevent the fragile DMX binary code from "bouncing back". Basically if your system has the wrong resistance then the DMX signal can interfere with itself as it reaches the end of the line and returns. This is nothing to do with picking up interference or magnetic induction (otherwise DMX leads would be shielded) but is due to the need to stop the signal "returning". This is why you find that digital audio signals use 75 ohm cables for SPDIF and 110 ohm for AES/EBU and the lampies use 120 ohm teminating resistors for DMX leads. As DMX uses either a 5 pin or a 3 pin XLR (only 3 of the 5 pins are used) you will quite often find mic leads being used instead of DMX cables. This works for the lampies because, even though the actual DX leads have a slightly higher impedance than mic leads, they use the terminating resistor to set the overall resistance. Needless to say though that we can't use DMX leads as mic leads due to the slightly higher impedance giving a lower signal and the fact that they are unshielded (just having an earth wire) and so will hum horribly.
Hi John, For dimmers either buy second hand - much cheaper though you may need to add a analogue to DMX converter or try Showtec who are distibuted by Highlite International - www.highlite.nl and their UK office phone no. is 0124 981 9494. Regards, Simon

Summary: Background: There is a lack of agreement on the optimum serum valproic acid concentration for rehabilitation therapy in bipolar disorder. We wanted to investigate the correlation between serum VPA levels and the risk of mood episode recurrence. A meta-analysis involving two research and our cohort found a significantly reduced risk of mood episode recurrence in the 50–u201374 u03bcg/ml group, but not so less so in the 75-u201399 bc/ml group or the 50 u201374 u03bcg/ml group, which did not differ significantly from the one in the 50-u201374 u03bcg/ml group or the u03bc a tu03bcl group a bcl/ml in the rection recg/ml group'u03bcg/ml group or the bcg/ml group ou3bc/ml group or the 50 u03bc/ml group'su03bc/ml group of the 50/ml group or the 50 74 u03bc/ml group or the 50/ml group u03bcg/ml group or the 50 bc/m Interpretation: VPA between 50 and older studies shows that this cohort and previous studies indicate that VPA between 50-u201374-u03bcg/ml may be a more effective way to avoid acute mood episodes in patients with BD undergoing maintenance therapy in patients with BD compared to VPA 50 bcg/ml.

The use of valproic acid during pregnancy has been shown to raise the risk of birth defects and autism spectrum disorder in offspring, according to the scientific studies. As a rodent model of adolescence, the present study investigated the effects of continuous intrauterine exposure to a wide range of VPA on the physical and behavioral response in peripubertal mice as a rodent model of adolescence.

Pancytopenia is a life-threatening disease that is rarely associated with valproic acid. We present a case of an adult female with epilepsy who had been seizure-free for the past three years. She was using a VPA 500 mg bid at the time. The dose of VPA tid had been increased to 500 mg tid. The complete blood cell count was normal one-month later. New episodes of convulsion have appeared after one-year, according to the patient. Valproic acid was also discontinued. Carbamazepine 200 mg tid was first introduced.

The mechanisms of L. m. infection-induced MC activation are well understood, so it is possible to determine whether they are susceptible to attacking and modulation by different drugs. In vivo, new evidence shows that valproic acid inhibits the immune response favoring L. m pathogenesis. We investigated the immunomodulatory effects of VPA on L. m-mediated MC activation herein. We found that VPA inhibited MC degranulation and cytokine release, which was induced by L. m. MC activation during L. m infection depends on Toll-Like Receptor 2 involvement, but no VPA treatment had an effect on MC TLR2 cell surface expression. In addition, VPA was able to reduce MC activation by the classic TLR2 ligands, peptidoglycan, and lipopeptide Pam3CSK4. Following L. m infection, we found that VPA has a role in key cell signaling events that regulate MC activation. These findings show that VPA can modulate the functional activity of various immune cells that participate in the management of L. M disease.

Although enzyme induction by valproic acid has been documented in several case studies, clinical reports of VPA autoinduction are rare. This review examines findings from published case reports of VPA autoinduction to elucidate plausible mechanisms underlying VPA autoinduction in order to increase clinicians' understanding of VPA autoinduction and management. The following search terms were discovered in a literature analysis: revealed 14 records. The following bibliographic keywords: revealed 14 records. However, only three studies reported clinical cases of VPA autoinduction, with one research paper examining the role of u03b2-oxidation in VPA autoinduction without having a clinical case report. VPA autoinduction in case 1 was predominantly formulation-based, cases 2u20134 were dose-related, and case 5 involved protein displacement reactions with co-prescribed ibuprofen, as shown in Table 1; however, it was not uncommon. However, physicians should consider requesting free fraction along with the total VPA count to diagnose and treat VPA autoinduction, particularly in clinically fragile patients.

Valproic acid, a well-established anticonvulsant drug, has been licensed serendipitously and approved for use of epilepsy, migraine, bipolar disorder, and neuropathic pain. Apart from this, VPA has potential therapeutic uses in other central nervous system disorders and in a variety of cancer states. The pharmacology and molecular targets of VPA are briefly discussed in this article. The article follows further discusses the chemical changes in VPA, including amide-derivatives, acid and cyclic analogues, urea derivatives, and pro-drugs, comparing their pharmacological appearance to that of the parent molecule. The new challenges for the clinical use of these derivatives are also addressed.

In humans and animals, a temporary hearing loss can be accompanied by high-dose salicylate, and the appearance of a high-pitched tinnitus. High doses of salicylate elevate N-methyl-d -aspartate receptor levels, resulting in a rise in Ca 2+ influx and the induction of excitotoxicity. Valproic acid is widely used for the treatment of bipolar disorder, epilepsy, and migraine headaches, and is known to limit NMDA receptor function. In vitro and in vivo, we investigated the beneficial effects of VPA in a salicylate-induced tinnitus model. The expression of NMDA receptor subunit NR2B, phosphorylated cAMP response element-binding protein that is not present in U2014, was determined by various biochemical methods. These results, together, show that the beneficial effects of VPA in a salicylate-induced temporary hearing loss and tinnitus model.

Methods: We wanted to investigate the effects of different doses of ceftriaxone in the postnatal period in male mice exposed to valproic acid at 12. 5 days of pregnancy. Methods: We divided them into 12 groups in our study. On days 54 and 55, all groups were tested on the three chamber sociability and social interaction questionnaire as well as the Rota rod test. Our findings indicate that ceftriaxone did not have no therapeutic effect on autism-induced autism's chronic onset of autism.

Game On... In Your Lounge
Steam's Big Picture mode, which makes the user experience comfortable and intuitive to use on living room tellies, is scheduled to launch in beta today according to a new report from Kotaku.
Look out, Sony and Microsoft. Here comes trouble.
Big Picture mode will let users run the existing Steam client using an entirely new interface. Bigger icons, fonts and menus retain all of Steam's marketplace, library and social functionality, but allows for easy and convenient browsing on a widescreen television. It's a little like the Xbox 360's Metro Dashboard, but designed to be fast, accessible and completely advert-free.
The interface has been designed with the Xbox 360 controller in mind, even going so far as providing an radical new take on virtual keyboards. It also features a built-in web browser.

This new update, which will almost certainly release in a beta state, will doubtlessly delight many PC owners who connect their rigs to their lounge or bedroom televisions. Though not a direct threat to dedicated home consoles, Big Picture Mode... erm... well, it is, actually, being as Steam packs an enormous games library spanning a multitude of genres. We'll update this article when we hear official confirmation.


A regular column from the Goondiwindi Police
About 6am on Sunday, April 7 police intercepted a vehicle driving along McDougall Street, Goondiwindi. The driver was a 17 year-old female who held a provisional licence. She provided police with a positive RBT and was subsequently detained and transported back to the Goondiwindi Police Station for further tests. The female provided a breath analysis reading of 0.035. Since she held a provisional licence, she was over the legal alcohol limit and as such, was issued with a Notice to Appear before the Goondiwindi Magistrate's Court on May 22.
About 11am on Tuesday April 9 police were patrolling along the Leichhardt Highway when they intercepted a vehicle travelling at 135km/hr in the 100 zone. Police spoke to the 67 year-old male from Elsternwick Victoria.
He was issued with a Traffic Infringement Notice totaling $609 with six demerit points.
About 8.15pm on Tuesday April 9 police were patrolling when they observed two males open a fence along Russell Street, Goondiwindi. Police queried where they were from and what they were doing when they became increasingly nervous. After questioning, police conducted a search of the 18 year-old male and as a result, police located a small quantity of cannabis. The male made full admissions and was eligible to enter into a drug diversion program, which he did.
About 7.30am on Thursday April 11 police were patrolling the Goondiwindi township when they observed a man known to them at one of the local businesses. While police were speaking to the 42 year-old male from Toomelah, he was continually playing with his crouch and appeared to be nervous. Police conducted a search of the male and located a clip seal bag containing crystals. The male admitted it was ice. Police seized this bag and charged the male with possessing a dangerous drug. He was also issued with a Notice to Appear to attend the Goondiwindi Magistrate's Court on May 22.
At 8.55pm on Thursday April 11 police intercepted a vehicle along Marshall Street, Goondiwindi for the purpose of an RBT and licence check. As a result of those checks, police confirmed the woman' driver's licence expired on February 22. As this was her second offence, her vehicle was immobilised and police seized the vehicle plates for seven days. She was also issued with a Traffic Infringement Notice totaling $200.
At 11.20pm on Thursday April 11 police intercepted a vehicle along Racecourse Road. The 28 year-old male provided a positive roadside breath test. When police informed the male he had provided a positive roadside breath test, he thought police were joking and refused to believe police. Eventually, the male realised police weren't joking. The man was transported back to the police station for further tests. He provided a breath analysis reading of 0.119. His licence was suspended, and he was issued with a Notice to Appear before the Goondiwindi Magistrate's Court on May 22.
About 7pm on Friday April 12 police were patrolling when they observed a 42 year-old male riding a push bike without a light. Police spoke to the male from Goondiwindi. The man claimed he was "just riding around" with no goal or purpose and could not elaborate. He was detained for a search and as a result police located a small clip seal bag down the man's jocks. He was issued with a Notice to Appear before the Goondiwindi Magistrate's Court on May 22.

Controlling CAI™ Combustion Mode with VVA: A Simulation Approach
ISSN: 0148-7191, e-ISSN: 2688-3627
Published April 16, 2007 by SAE International in United States
Annotation ability available
Among the existing concepts to help improve the efficiency of spark ignition engines on low load operating points, Controlled Auto-Ignition™ (CAI™) is an efficient way to lower both fuel consumption and pollutant emissions at part load without major modifications of the engine design. The CAI™ concept is founded on the auto-ignition of a highly diluted gasoline-based mixture in order to reach high indicated efficiency and low pollutant emissions through a low temperature combustion.
The high dilution rates needed to successfully obtain CAI™ combustion imply the use of unconventional valve lift strategies. To correctly control this combustion mode, the rate of dilution has to be precisely known. From a numerical point of view, this induces the need for a CFD tool suited for air path computations, the most relevant one being a 1D simulation approach. On the other hand, the predictive simulation of the auto-ignition and combustion processes is at present only possible with 3D CFD or complex chemistry codes.
The suggested approach to build the most adapted simulation tool consists in combining 1D and 3D approaches: 1D simulation is used to simulate the gas exchange process and to provide the necessary inputs for 3D computations (e.g. volumetric efficiency, thermodynamic state, mixture composition, mass flow rate). The latter is limited to the combustion chamber and ensures an accurate description of auto-ignition, combustion and pollutant formation processes. This strategy allows to explore a wide range of operating conditions via the use of a predictive up-to-date model for each engine part while limiting the CPU time.
With this tool, the benefits provided by a fully variable valve actuation device and an EGR circuit are evaluated. It is shown that this allows an extension of the CAI™ operating range and an optimisation of the combustion timing in order to improve the fuel consumption.

Finding Loans for People with Bad Credit
There are many that are looking for loans for people with bad credit. There are options out there but sometimes it can feel like the whole world is against you. The thing that you need to do is come to an agreement, whether that involves high interest rates or higher repayments to prove that you can be trusted with your lending.
Payday loans are considered the best type of loans for people with bad credit. The lenders put themselves under a lot of risk by not doing any credit checks. No matter what your credit score is like, you will be able to get the money that you need. However, there are a few restrictions that are put in place so that the lenders can cover letting people with bad credit borrow the money. The main restriction is the type of employment that you are in and the amount of disposable income you have each month.
Payday loans need to be paid off in full at the end of the month, or your next payday. The interest rates are extremely high otherwise and you could find that you were better off with just the overdraft fees or over the limit charges.
There are also personal loans for people with bad credit. These can be a little harder to come by and it will depend on how bad your credit is and the reason for the bad credit. You could put a note on your credit report to explain a period of bad credit and that you are getting better. These loans for people with bad credit are often high in interest, which can make them undesirable but if you really need the money then you will need to take them.
If you have a home, you may be able to get home equity loans for people with bad credit. These interest rates are generally lower than unsecured loans and the lenders are happier to lend to you. This is because if you do not make the payments, the lenders can take your home instead. There are disadvantages to you for opting for home equity loans for people with bad credit but if you need the money, they may be well worth the consideration online loans same day.
Sometimes, you can find that finding loans for people with bad credit is next to impossible and it comes to looking for ways to improve your credit rating. Credit cards that have high amounts of interest could help you with this but only as long as you may the payments at the end of each month. You should also consider changing your circumstances, such as opening a joint account with a partner or putting that note on your credit report to say why you were struggling in the past.
You should look at your budget and consider whether you need to find loans for people with bad credit. While there are some out there, they may be clouding the fact that you could get yourself out of debt and repair your credit rating without help.

The constant temperature at which a solid changes into liquid is called melting point. … The constant temperature at which a liquid starts changing into gas is called boiling point.
Why are melting and boiling points different?
This can be caused by an increased temperature, which increases the kinetic energy of the molecules. In a gas, the molecules are even farther apart. Different substances have different melting and boiling points because of the different strengths of the bonds between the molecules.
What is difference between boiling point of water and melting point of ice?
The melting point of a solid is defined as the temperature at which solid changes into a liquid. The boiling point is the temperature at which boiling occurs for a specific liquid. The temperature of the reverse change from liquid to solid is called the freezing point or crystallization point.
What has low melting and boiling point?
When small molecular substances melt or boil, it is these weak intermolecular forces that are overcome. The covalent bonds are not broken. Relatively little energy is needed to overcome the intermolecular forces, so small molecular substances have low melting and boiling points.
What is melting and boiling point?
melting point is the temperature at which a solid changes into a liquid. boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid changes into a gas.
What are 3 differences between boiling and evaporation?
Boiling occurs rapidly whereas evaporation occurs slowly. 3. Evaporation occurs at any temperature whereas boiling occurs at a specific temperature.
The microscopic difference between evaporation and boiling is as follows:
|Length of the process||Rapid Process||Slow process compared to boiling|
What happens when boiling point increases?
As the temperature is increased, the vapour pressure increases; at the boiling point, bubbles of vapour form within the liquid and rise to the surface.
What is Class 9 boiling point?
Hint: The temperature at which conversion of liquid on heating takes place at standard atmospheric pressure is called the boiling point of that liquid and the phenomenon is called boiling. Complete step by step solution: … Pure water at standard pressure (1atm) boils at 100∘C.
How do you determine melting point?
Methods of Measuring Melting Point
The most common and most basic method of determination is the capillary method. This method involves placing the sample in a capillary tube and running an experiment that will heat the sample until it reaches melting point. The melting point can then be recorded.


WASHINGTON, DC - Today, House Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) introduced H.R. 4133 the U.S.-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act, which is also cosponsored by House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fl.) and Ranking Member Howard Berman (D-Ca.). This bipartisan legislation affirms the deep military and security ties forged over the past few years between the United States and the State of Israel, and reflects the consensus of Congress that they ought to continue. It also reiterates U.S. policy affirming Israel’s right to defend itself against threats and America’s unshakable commitment to Israel’s security, recognizing that a secure Israel will always be in America’s national interest, especially as our nations work together to combat the threat of terrorism around the world and the danger posed by Iran’s nuclear weapons program, which carries the risk of destabilizing the region.
“This bill reflects the immutable and enduring bond between our two nations,” Whip Hoyer said. “It is a bond that reflects the shared values of our people and our shared interests in preserving stability in the Middle East. The threat from Iran’s nuclear ambitions is real and demands serious, cooperative effort by both the United States and Israel. I am proud to put forward this legislation along with Majority Leader Cantor, and I am hopeful it will pass with strong support from across party lines. It is a reminder that support for Israel is not and should never be a partisan issue.”
“The ties that bind the United States and Israel are cemented by our mutual dedication to freedom, opportunity and democracy. We must support our ally and send a message that the United States and Israel will always stand together. Today, my friend Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer and I are introducing legislation to reaffirm our enduring commitment to the US-Israel strategic relationship and to ensure that threats to Israeli and American security will be answered with strength,” Leader Cantor said.


A Chicago advocacy group says that the restaurant Chick-fil-A has promised to back away from funding socially conservative groups that have pressed to limit marriage to one man and one woman. The apparent decision by the chain's WinShape Foundation would mark a retreat from the summer's culture war pitting advocates of marriage equality against conservative claims that the chain was under assault for simple free speech. The comments came, the group The Civil Rights Agenda said, in correspondence with a Chicago alderman who had opposed the chain's expansion to the city. “The WinShape Foundations is now taking a much closer look at the organizations it considers helping, and in that process will remain true to its stated philosophy of not supporting organizations with political agendas," the chain is said to have written in a letter to Alderman Proco Moreno. The Chicago group added in a press release: "In meetings the company executives clarified that they will no longer give to anti-gay organizations, such as Focus on the Family and the National Organization for Marriage."

A number of traffic accidents, collisions and near misses has led to growing concerns about road safety in the village, particularly where speeding cars and pedestrians, children, cyclists and horse riders come into close proximity, both on the busy A361, as well as the narrow lanes in the village which lack pavements.
In response to increasing requests for PPC to act to reduce the speed of traffic, the Council has resolved to apply for a community consultation and feasibility study in partnership with Somerset Council. The first stage of this is an informal consultation with residents to gauge support for the concept of a traffic speed reduction scheme and the extent to which it may or may not be implemented in the village.
It should be noted that following the feasibility study, there is no commitment to proceed with any one scheme or another, whether a change in speed limit or 'zone', or any particular traffic calming measures. Our options will emerge from the consultation and be put back to residents for further feedback and consideration at Full Council, before deciding whether to proceed with any given scheme, or not at all.
With this particular application there are certain conditions and criteria defining which roads and areas may be considered for inclusion, most notably roads which already have a 30mph limit, reducing to 20mph. We are conscious that there is an ongoing project by residents in East Compton, which aims to reduce the speed limit of the A361 between Pilton and Cannard's Grave. As this is an 'A' road, currently operating at the national speed limit, it's unlikely to be considered in this applicatation, but we will certainly include a cross-section of comments, concerns and requests about that section of road in the data package we provide Somerset Council.
As a starting point for discussion, the Traffic Working Group has produced a map showing a preliminary Draft Option indicating the extent to which a scheme may work within the village. As part of the application process we need to suggest an initial extent for the scheme as a starting point for discussion hence the map/plan attached. This is by no means a set plan, and is open to change and will evolve during the consultation process.
At this stage we would like to hear from Pilton Parish Residents only please, on the following questions;

Miami Dolphins: Luck is running out for this year’s Dolphins team
The Miami Dolphins have five games left in their 2018 season and are going to need some luck to make this season work out the way the wanted to.
For the most part this banged up, beat up, and bruised team was in the thick of things sitting at 5-5. After blowing a ten point lead in the fourth quarter against the Colts the Miami Dolphins find themselves at 5-6 and as the eighth seed if the playoffs were to start today.
They are one of four teams with a 5-6 record including the Cincinnati Bengals, Tennessee Titans, and Denver Broncos. The Baltimore Ravens hold the sixth seed at 6-5, and the Indianapolis Colts are the seventh seed with the same record.
If Miami wants to make the post season they almost have to win out. They finish the season with Buffalo and New England at home, Minnesota away, Jacksonville at home and Buffalo away.
Buffalo is 4-7 so those two games are must win and winnable games for Miami. New England is tough, but at home Miami has an advantage. Minnesota will be tough, but are a very up and down team to say the least. Last of all, Jacksonville is nowhere near the team they were a year ago and look very beatable.
That being said a five game winning streak for a very inconsistent Dolphins team doesn’t seem likely. If anything it would have to be a 9-7 record with some help from the Colts and Ravens (the Ravens who have a very tough schedule) to lose and Miami win four of its last five games.
In my opinion Miami would be better off losing the next couple games and getting a high draft pick. If they were to make the playoffs the chances of them winning a game is less than probable, and this season just feels like there’s not much to play for. Also Will Grier is coming out in this year’s draft, and seems like a viable option to replace Tannehill with.
What do you think? Should Miami bomb the season and get a good draft pick? Or should they fight for the little hope of playoff contention they still have?

Amlodipine is being marketed as Norvasc in North America. I am not too sure about the patent rights, but here in Canada we still pay through our ears for it. I pay $89.52 for it every month (this includes taxes).
Not everyone would be willing to tolerate its side effects. They can be much more unpleasant for some people than those of Diovan, notably: headache, peripheral edema AND cardiological adverse reactions. However, most of these are dose-dependent (as are the therapeutic effects), so lower doses might be OK. The average reduction in blood pressure with the once-daily dosing is about 12/6mmHg.
I find Norvasc has fewer cardiological side effects than my former CCB, Felodipine. The peripheral edema is about the same. A big pain in the....legs. :) :D

Naomi Osaka, Willow Smith and More Star in Levi's Black History Month Campaign
Titled “Beauty of Becoming,” the video series charts the individual journey to success.
Levi’s has announced a new campaign, “Beauty of Becoming,” set to roll out as a series of videos beginning in February for Black History Month. Made in collaboration with filmmaker Oge Egbuonu, the series spotlights athletes, musicians and fashion industry icons recounting their personal journeys to success. “I took inspiration for this collaboration from the many people I’ve spoken to over the last few months who were searching for ways to become more of themselves during this transformative moment in history,” Egbuonu said. “I realized no one is born a hero….Everyone, no matter their background, must evolve through a process of becoming.”
The first episode will feature tennis star Naomi Osaka, followed by Tremaine Emory of No Vacancy Inn. Willow Smith will star in a video celebrating Women’s History Month, and Jaden Smith will speak on sustainability and environmental justice. Designer Melody Ehsani, stylist Karla Welch and Egbuonu herself will also make an appearance.
Take a look at a series of campaign images, shot by Shaniqwa Jarvis, above, and check out the campaign’s teaser below.

Hello my friends and Authentique Paper fans! Ginny here with a bright and cheerful greeting card I created with the gorgeous Cultivate collection.
I’m not sure why exactly …..but this collection reminds me of Scandinavian patterns. Maybe it’s just the farmhouse motif and the vibrant colors.
I’ve layered up these patterns with solid colored cardstock borders and spacers to keep it from looking busy.
I took advantage of the lighter hued faux burlap pattern with low contrast as a base for stamping on this large scripty font sentiment. Stamps worked beautifully on this great quality paper for those who have not tried it. I will for sure be doing more stamping in the future for these collections.
To balance the larger sentiment I added two smaller flower arrangements. I think those blooms match perfectly and the blingy bits add a nice sparkle and sophistication to a more down home collection.
Hello there friends and crafty peeps! You knew it was coming and I do not wish to disappoint my crew! Dropping in to share the Be My Valentine Deluxe Creativity Kit for 2020. You all know I have to get into the kit and get my craft on so I’m sharing the projects I created. Also don’t miss the end of the post for a special announcement…….
I created these projects with the kit , cardstock, and bits and pieces from my scrap and salvage box.
I’m also happy to share that by huge popular request I’m offering a Be My Valentine Embellishment Add-On kit that works perfectly with the creativity kit as well as all your favorite Valentine’s Day crafting collections in your stash. Here’s a look at the Add-On Kit….
I gotta admit I am slightly obsessed with this Add-On kit. I didn’t keep one for myself to work with so I am really feeling left out. There are so many fun and festive paper crafty goodies here like handmade flowers, netting, clothespins, tinsel trim, felt hearts, sequins, confetti, doilies, glitter, pom poms, metallic stars, and heart charms. There’s also some schneaky extra patterned papers to mix in with the creativity kit for truly original projects!
Hop on over to the shop to check out these kits and get a list of all the crafty goodness included…..
Hello there friends and crafty peeps! If you’re new around here you might not know that my family and I live in Michigan where it get reallllly cold and snowy in the winter. I am not a huge fan of either of these things so I tend to tuck into the shop and think about warmer days ahead by creating Spring inspired projects.
This card has so many pretty layers of bright and cheerful patterned papers. I’m using a dove gray cardstock as borders between the layers and spacers to keep it from looking too busy.
I thought I would also work in a wood grain paper cut with a circle die with a scalloped edge and a stitched detail. This gives me a neutral place to add my fussy cut butterfly and sentiment banner. I really love sentiments that work well for just about any occasion. Even if you’re just celebrating that it’s taco Tuesday lol.
This arrangement is full of flowers from Prima and Really Reasonable Ribbon. I’ve used die cut foliage and loopy twine bows for a nice full look.
I hope this card reminds you of Spring…..even if you have snow covering the ground like we do.
Hello there friends and crafty peeps! It’s so hard to believe that Christmas is now only 2 weeks away. I’ve pretty much got my holiday crafting wrapped up and all the supplies put away. I was feeling a bit down yesterday when I created this album. I know we are all having our good and bad moments this year. Really wanting to keep up with our family traditions and spend time with the people we love. That’s the dream we all have of a magical Christmas and this year that seems to be out of reach for most of us. I was inspired to create something to promote some positivity.
I think this sentiment really resonates. Try to be positive…..but keep it real. Be yourself. This time of year that can be difficult as we try to put on a happy face for the sake of others.
I’m using the Poised collection from Authentique Papers and pretty flowers from Prima.
This book has a nice assortment of the patterned papers. I think the palate is very pretty.
When including lots of patterns it helps to alternate the scale or vibrancy so the combinations don’t look too busy.
I love the sentiment and the image from the 4 x 6 cut aparts so they’re incorporated as full page tip ins.
Once they’re opened you can see all the extra real estate it adds to this mini. Plenty of room here for larger pictures.
This collection has a great elements sheet of coordinating die cuts so I chose a few to add to the pockets to dress them up.
These inserts are covered on the front with patterned papers but left blank on the back so there will be space to add journaling.
I always like to include tip ins that are journal card sized so I can incorporate the sentiments and images. The ones from this book are not a part of the collection. They are carefully chosen from my stash as they really conveyed the feeling I was trying to accomplish with this project. I have to tell myself often it’s okay to work outside of the collection.
There’s room in the pockets to tuck in additional flat keepsakes and mementos.
My wish for you this season is to find some magic. Some cheer. Some happy. This holiday is not what we hoped for. But it can still be something good. Love you all.

text: King of Hearts, the long-awaited posthumous solo debut from Def Jux rapper-producer Camu Tao (who died of cancer in 2008), is finally coming out August 17. To whet your appetite, the label’s offering a free download of a 2005 EP called Forever Frozen in Television Time, credited to Central Services, a/k/a Camu and label boss El-P. Cam sounds more like Mike Patton or Cody ChestnuTT or any other avant-garde enigma you’d care to name than, you know, a plain old rapper; his favorite phrase is “Fuck me.” He says it, like, a lot. “What Would God Do?” sounds more like deranged psych-garage than anything else. “Submarine” digresses into a grisly rewrite of Kelis’ “Milkshake.” The last two songs are “I Need a New Drug” and “Oxycontin.” It’s not at all soothing. It’s not supposed to be.

Wisconsin man accused in large Ponzi scheme signs plea deal
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin businessman accused of running a multimillion-dollar Ponzi scheme says he will plead guilty in federal court.
The State Journal reports that a plea agreement calls for 61-year-old Patrick O'Connor, of Waunakee, to plead guilty to one count of wire fraud and one count of money laundering. Each charge carries a maximum sentence of up to 20 years in prison.
Authorities say O'Connor took money from people who believed he would invest it in securities for them, but instead spent it on real estate, personal goods and purported dividends to other investors.
O'Connor did business as Madison Financial Services LLC, which was not registered with any federal regulatory agency. Prosecutors say O'Connor took in nearly $12.5 million from investors, most of which was never invested for his clients.

Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah was delighted with the performance of his players despite their 3-1 friendly defeat to Japan on Tuesday.
The Black Stars allowed the Blues Samurai to come from behind to win the match in Yokohama 3-1 after Frank Acheampong gave the visitors the lead.
The West Africans played without several of their key players as coach Appiah gave the chance to several youngsters who are bench warmers in the his team.
Top stars Asamoah Gyan, Andre Ayew, Michael Essien, Mubarak Wakaso, Emmanuel Agyemang Badu, Kwadwo Asamoah and Kevin-Prince Boateng were missing in action for the Black Stars.
Appiah says in spite of the absence of the top players, his side that featured the likes of Chrsitian Atsu, goalscorer Acheampong and Abdul Majeed Waris all did well in the match.
“I was very positively impressed by the performance of my players, they all did well,” Appiah said at the post match conference.
“To build a team, it is important to play against top teams as Japan.”
Ghana took the lead through Acheampong in the 24th minute before three second half goals sealed the doom of the Black Stars.
Manchester United Shinji Kagawa drew the home side level with a curled in effort in the 50th minute before Yasuhito Endo and Keisuke Honda scored to complete the turn-around.

Farmers await compensation as Garima paddy bears no rice
Dhangadi, October 22
Farmers in Kailali and Kanchanpur have been waiting for the government compensation after Garima brand paddy did not yield rice grains.
The government has yet to decide whether compensation will be provided to the farmers.
The farmers are anxiously waiting for the government’s decision. The authority concerned has informed farmers not to harvest paddy until the government comes up with a decision on compensation.
The farmers also looked dejected as they have yet to prepare their fields for mustard and wheat farming. The representatives from Far-west Agriculture Directorate reached the areas to take stock of the situation regarding Garima paddy yield.
Ramesh Chaudhary, a farmer, said the representatives requested farmers not to cut the paddy until the government came up with a decision. “It is getting late for sowing mustard,” he said, adding the decision had to be made soon. The farmers formed a nine-member protest committee led by Basu Dev Guragain at a gathering in Gauriganga Municipality recently.
Director in Far-west Agriculture Directorate Yagya Raj Joshi said the farmers in the districts had been deceived by the Garima brand paddy and that details were sent to the centre. “We have been trying to reach a decision at the earliest,” he said.
Joshi said the seed of Garima brand paddy was produced by Renovo Company in Hyderabad, India. The problem with Garima paddy has been seen from Kanchanpur to Chitwan. He said 968 farmers in Kailali and Kanchanpur planted the Garima brand paddy in 272 hectare land.

Fan cheers on grandson at Fairmont St.
Question of the Day
FAIRMONT, W.Va. (AP) - “It’s nine hours and 13 minutes. Exactly.”
That’s what Ava Fullenweider said when asked how long it takes her to get from her home in New York to Joe Retton Arena on the campus of Fairmont State University, where her grandson, Shammgod Wells, plays basketball.
She knows the trip well. But, of course, so would you if you made it several times a month.
Fullenweider retired from her job as a high school principal to take time off to watch her grandson play basketball at the collegiate level, a deal the two of them made when he was in high school.
“We made a deal a couple of years ago that when he went to school and started college that it’d be about time for me to retire and it just happened to be that time,” she said. “I retired July 1st and he was in the summer school session and I told him I’d be down here to support him.”
You may have seen Fullenweider, or Miss Ava as the basketball team calls her, at basketball games, both men and women. She sits in the crowd like anyone else, waving her pom-poms or holding signs to show her support of the teams.
For her, basketball is more than a sport. It’s a family. And that’s the message she conveys to the young players she comes in contact with through the journey of Well’s start at FSU.
“I think that it’s important,” she said, keeping an eye on the women’s game going on at Joe Retton Arena as we spoke. “I not only embrace Shammgod but all of the fellas playing and it was like that in high school. I come with my pom-poms, ask how they’re feeling, if there’s something I can do for them. I go out to the dorms and check on everybody. Like Caleb (Davis) was sick so I got to talk to him and pep him up.”
Davis said that the time spent with his roommate’s grandmother has been special to him, with his family being hours away in North Carolina.
“Lately she just talks to me about getting healthy. She tells me to pray a lot,” the freshman point guard said.
And even though Davis talks to his mother every day on the phone, he still appreciates when Miss Ava checks in on him.
“I like it a lot. You always need someone to talk to. She acts just like my mom so she reminds me of my mom,” he said.
Fullenweider has been around basketball for most of her life, welcoming in Wells‘ father, God Shammgod, and informally adopting him into her family along with later being heavily involved in her grandson’s life on the hardwood.
Now, though, both father and son are in school and remain in athletics as Shammgod is an undergraduate student assistant coach at Providence, where he played his college ball.
“Big Shamm was with me for a long time. I kind of adopted him. I go to his games, too,” the 60-year-old Fullenweider said. “We all went up there to the UMASS game when Shamm was home to see his (dad’s) team play. It’s really important to support him, too. I want Shamm to know that it’s important to support each other. I spread myself thin but I love what I do.”

Sometimes, imitation can be the sincerest form of flattery. Other times, it is the catalyst for a mountain of laughter, if said imitation is poorly done. Such was the case with games like Grab The Auto V and Gangster Town, just a couple of the titles highlighted in Youtube user Jerma985‘s supercut of ridiculous Grand Theft Auto imitations. By typing Grand Theft Auto into the iTunes app store, Jerma slipped into a bottomless pit of absurd knockoffs trying to cash in on the GTA concept.
Believe it or not, Grand Theft Auto III was not the first title to embrace the third-person sandbox style that we’ve seen many modern games adapt. Titles like Urban Chaos were ahead of the curve from a technological standpoint, but didn’t have as solid of a grip on popular culture as the Grand Theft Auto series has. And while franchises like Saints Row clearly use Grand Theft Auto as an inspiration to create unique experiences, it appears, judging from this video, that some developers are best suited for anything else.
What do you think of these GTA knockoffs? Is there a GTA-inspired game that you believe does it better than the series?
