In the Islamic holy month of Ramzan, under Ashok Gehlot government, the state-run Jodhpur electricity distribution company has promised uninterrupted power supply to Muslim dominated areas.
Jodhpur Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited, also popularly known as Jodhpur Discom has issued directives that there would not be any power cuts in any of the Muslim dominated areas in the state for the entire month of Ramzan.
The letter issued by Jodhpur Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited dated April 1, 2022, has been doing the rounds on Twitter. Twitter user @8PMnoCM shared the copy of the letter issued by Jodhpur Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited.
According to the letter issued by the Jodhpur electricity department, the month of Ramzan begins on April 4. People observing Roza should not be inconvenienced by the hot weather, so it should be ensured that all Muslim-dominated areas in Jodhpur, Pali, Sirohi, Barmer, Jaisalmer, Jalore, Bikaner, Churu, Hanumangarh, and Sriganganagar have uninterrupted power supply throughout the month of Ramzan.
OpIndia contacted Jodhpur Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited to verify the letter’s authenticity. Mr KG Agarwal, the PA to the Managing Director of Jodhpur Discom confirmed that an order has, indeed, been issued by the MDs of Jodhpur, Jaipur and Ajmer Discoms to supply uninterrupted electricity to all the Muslim dominated regions falling under their respective areas.
Agarwal went on to say that the order was issued in response to a motion introduced in parliament by Congress MLA Zahida Khan. Following this, Rajasthan’s Congress-led government directed all three Discoms to ensure that there are no power outages in any Muslim-dominated region of the state during the entire month of Ramzan.
Rajasthan Congress leader Zahida Khan
Zahida Khan is a Member of the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly and a Minister of State in the Rajasthan government. She was elected as an MLA from Kaman, Rajasthan, twice- once in 2008 and again in 2018. She has also held the positions of Parliamentary Secretary and State Minister in the Government of Rajasthan. In October 2011, she was also named General Secretary of the All India Mahila Congress.
In February last year, Zahida Khan was booked for allegedly threatening and assaulting a local man in Jodhpur. The complainant had alleged that on January 31, 2021, when he was on the way to join the farmers’ agitation near the Haryana border, armed goons of the MLA started beating him up. He claimed that he was rescued by the locals and passersby. Zahida Khan had, however, refuted the allegations calling them “baseless and politically motivated.”
Zahida Khan is the same Congress leader, against whom a complaint was lodged with the Election Commission in 2019 after a video of her controversial speech in the Kaman region of Bharatpur district in Rajasthan which falls in the Mewat region had gone viral. In the video, she was heard playing the caste and religion card by urging the Gujjars and the Muslims to come together to vote especially if they could ‘come together to rob’.
Khan had, however, dismissed the video and called it doctored. She said that the video is a conspiracy of her political rivals.
Zahida Khan’s husband Jalish Khan was the prime accused in the infamous Bharatpur gangrape case where a Dalit girl was allegedly raped by some men for about 15 days. Zahida Khan, who is a law graduate from the University of Delhi, had written a letter to the then Rajasthan Chief Minister of Rajasthan denying the allegations of rape against her husband. The rape survivor had also alleged that she was being threatened of dire consequences if she did not withdraw the case. She was also allegedly offered Rs 1 crore to ‘settle’ the case.

Another Coronavirus variation is spreading across the U.S. This comes after the nation just hit another achievement of record low passings that haven’t been seen starting from the beginning of the pandemic.
The alternative name for that variant is “Arcturus,” and the World Health Organization has designated it as XBB.1.16. There is another side effect that we should be keeping watch for as indicated by irresistible illness expert Dr. Aileen Marty.
“Children have increased occurrences of red eyes. As a result, their conjunctivitis lacks pus because it is caused by a viral rather than bacterial infection. We’re likewise seeing higher fevers, particularly in kids,” she said.
More Information About the COVID Arcturus Variant
The COVID Arcturus Variant, also known as the XBB.1.16 variant, is a subvariant of Omicron and belongs to a new group of XBB subvariants. Willaim Schaffner, M.D., an infectious disease specialist and Vanderbilt University School of Medicine professor, explains that while it is rapidly spreading in India, it has not taken off in other countries in the same manner.
WHO claims that XBB.1.16 and XBB.1.5 share a mutation, making it a recombinant of BA.2.10.1 and BA.2.75, respectively. Signs of increased transmissibility and infection severity have been linked to this new variant’s mutations. 21 nations have reported XBB.1.16 sequences as of the 27th of March. However, there have been no reports of an increase in XBB-related hospitalizations, ICU admissions, or deaths.1.16 The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of the United States estimate that it is responsible for 9.6% of all current cases.
According to the Mayo Clinic, newer variants are reported to have higher levels of infectiousness, but overall, they tend to cause less severe disease. This is probably due to higher vaccination rates, higher rates of immunity from previous infections, and lower pathogenicity of recent variants.
Dr. Marty did mention that vaccination rates have decreased recently. She emphasized the significance of receiving an updated shot given that the earlier vaccines do not protect against the more recent variants.

- Readers should avoid salt as scientists say it reduces white blood cell's strength
- It is also recommended that people do not over-consume alcohol at this time
As yet there’s no magic bullet that offers protection against coronavirus.
And even though vitamin C supplements are selling in huge quantities, hard evidence on its effectiveness in preventing even colds is still lacking.
JO WATERS reports on the ways that you can keep your immune system in good shape.
Eating a varied and colourful diet can help to boost your immune system in case of infection
EXERCISE REALLY CAN HELP YOU STAY HEALTHY
‘Exercise is my number one tip for staying healthy,’ says Professor Janet Lord, an expert in immunity and ageing at the University of Birmingham.
‘Using muscles during exercise has an anti-inflammatory effect and helps immune cells called neutrophils get to an infection site quicker.
‘It also helps other immune cells called macrophages — “guard” cells that patrol the body for signs of attack — function better,’ she explains.
Exercise can also reduce the effects of ageing on the immune system. A study of 125 keen cyclists aged 55 to 79 found they had immune systems of people decades younger, reported the journal Aging Cell in 2018.
‘The thymus [a gland with two lobes behind the breastbone], which makes immune cells called T-cells, starts to shrink from the age of 20 and makes fewer T-cells,’ explains Professor Lord.
‘In this study, the cyclists’ thymuses were making as many T-cells as those of a young person.’
Another study, by the University of Birmingham, involving 200 people over the age of 65 found those who regularly walked 10,000 steps a day had the neutrophil function of a person in their 20s.
‘Any regular exercise that gets your heart rate up seems to be able to “turn back the clock” of the immune system,’ says Professor Lord. ‘We don’t know how little you have to do to make this happen, although 10,000 steps a day seems to be enough to get neutrophils circulating around the body.
‘But any exercise is better than none. You need to move as much as possible, even if it’s only getting up and down a few times in an armchair every hour or walking up and down the stairs a couple of times a day.’

LAY OFF THE SALT
A diet high in salt may reduce the efficiency of the immune system, according to a study published last week.
When scientists fed mice a high-salt diet, they became more prone to bacterial infections.
And when human volunteers doubled the recommended 6g a day intake of salt (the amount in two portions of burgers and chips), their immune systems got worse at fighting off bacteria.
The authors of the study, published in the journal Science Translational Medicine, said the body creates hormones to remove excess salt, and glucocorticoids — a group of hormones — have an immune-suppressing effect.
‘Excessive salt is also known to potentially increase a certain type of cell called T-helper 17 cells which increases potentially harmful inflammation,’ adds Jenna Macciochi, a lecturer in immunology at the University of Sussex.
STICK TO OFFICIAL BOOZE GUIDANCE
While it’s tempting to have a few drinks in lockdown, excess alcohol is no good for the immune system. ‘Drinking to excess can affect production of immune cells produced in the bone marrow,’ says Jenna Macciochi. ‘These are needed to replace older cells that are less effective.’
When scientists exposed white blood cells in a laboratory to the equivalent of five units of alcohol (roughly three glasses of wine) every day for a week, the cells produced 75 per cent less of a molecule called type 1 interferon, which is critical to mounting an anti-viral response, reported the journal BMC Immunology in 2011.
‘Alcohol is also a sleep disruptor and poor quality sleep can also impair immunity,’ adds Jenna Macciochi. Excess alcohol can also damage the lining of the gut, where 70 per cent of the body’s immune system is located.
So stick to the government’s recommendation of no more than 14 units of alcohol a week.
Getting plenty of sunshine is also recommended. Boris Johnson has said Britons can take one exercise outing every day
TOP UP THE SUNSHINE VITAMIN
‘Vitamin D has lots of good effects on the immune system,’ says Arne Akbar, a professor of immunology at University College London and president of the British Society of Immunology.
‘Many people in the UK are deficient at this time of year as the body needs exposure to sunlight to make it, so a supplement is useful. I take one myself.’
The recommended daily dose is 10mcg a day in winter, as the sun isn’t strong enough in the UK for the body to produce its own. You can get some vitamin D from your diet but it is hard to get enough from food alone — you would need to eat large amounts of shiitake mushrooms and oily fish, for example.
A 2016 study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society found older people in care homes given high doses of vitamin D — equivalent to 90mcg per week — were 40 per cent less likely to suffer acute respiratory illnesses.
KEEP TAKING THE STATINS
Around seven million people in the UK take cholesterol-lowering drugs called statins and this may have unexpected benefits for their immune systems.
A study of 64 patients at the University of Birmingham found those aged over 55 hospitalised with pneumonia who were given 80mg of simvastatin daily for seven days had a higher neutrophil function than those given a placebo.
The study, in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine last year, also found that after a year, those in the statin group had a lower death rate than those in the placebo group.
‘As we age, neutrophils are slower to reach the site of infection and when they get there they are less effective at killing the infection,’ says Professor Lord.
‘However, in this study, statins seemed to rejuvenate the neutrophils. This hasn’t been adapted as standard practice yet because we need larger studies to confirm these findings.
‘In the meantime, if you are already prescribed statins, don’t forget to take them.’
It is also recommended that everyone eats a range of fruit and vegetables to keep their immune system healthy and ready to fight off infections (stock image)
EAT FOOD OF MANY COLOURS
Despite the hype around certain foods, there is no ‘superfood’ that boosts your immune system on its own, says Megan Rossi, a dietitian at King’s College London. What is important, she says, is feeding your gut microbiota, the trillions of microbes that call your intestine home.
‘Your microbiota has been linked with stronger immunity and plays a key role in training, maintaining and supporting our immune system,’ says Megan Rossi.
To maintain a healthy microbiota, she recommends eating a wide variety of plant-based foods. ‘The more variety, the better: vegetables, fruit, wholegrains, legumes (beans and pulses), nuts and seeds,’ she says.
‘Frozen, tinned and dried all count, and go for different colours — think red and yellow peppers, green and black grapes.
‘That way, you’ll be feeding your diversely skilled team of microbes each their preferred foods.’
AND FINALLY... ZINC IS GOOD FOR US
Older people aged 55 to 87 who took zinc supplements had lower rates of infection than those taking a placebo, according to a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition in 2007.
‘There is some evidence that zinc is good for the immune system, but we don’t know how much is beneficial and for how long you should take it,’ says Professor Akbar.
The NHS recommends that men get 9.5mg a day, and women 7mg. Zinc is found in meat, shellfish, dairy products and fortified cereals.

The Treasures and the Damage
I came to explore the wreck.
The words are purposes.
The words are maps.
I came to see the damage that was done
and the treasures that prevail.
—Adrienne Rich, “Diving into the Wreck”
I think you can hardly be a poet and a feminist (at least of my generation) without holding onto Adrienne Rich’s poem, “Diving into the Wreck” to keep you on the search for what is lost and what is crucial, who or what is unmentioned in the “book of myths,” what tools to use, and how deep to go.
Photo credit Joan GuentherSee more details below
It’s a poem I can’t fully “explain,” but I gained a visceral understanding of it the only time I heard Rich read in person (at Harbourfront in Toronto). I remember Rich so passionately saying something like, “But I am a poet, and that’s what I do—I go diving into the deep, I rescue words and bring them up to the surface, slimy and running with seaweed and water, I hold them in my hands and offer them to people.”
Revisiting those words of Rich’s now puts me in mind of what Dionne Brand says in The Blue Clerk, “There is a substrata of life going on that people are unaware of.” Or rather, the clerk says it.
Rich’s idea of depth has had for me a huge resonance—going deep within our psyches and relationships, our cultures and our histories to continue that questioning and that “rescuing” of what is hidden, buried, drowned; to me that is the core of poetry, to find the living spark in the depths.
That evening at Harbourfront, Rich’s words felt like not just a challenge about what topics or issues to search out, but also how to address them. To explore the wreck, to learn a new way to breathe. As she says in the poem, “The words are purposes. / The words are maps.”
However, in my own writing, sometimes I feel I may do this diving somewhat intuitively, or without explicit intention. I write about what takes my attention, what lights my fires of inspiration or even sometimes, indignation. Often it’s works of art—visual art, dance, theatre, photography—especially by women artists. The art is the “treasure,” and the subject of the art is often, but not always, “the damage that was done.”
"For women artists—mostly not working-class women—that war opened the opportunity of going to art school, as so many male artists were off in the trenches. Several of these women artists lost brothers or fiancés in the trenches, and these losses are echoes in their art."
Ever since, as a younger reader, I devoured Pat Barker’s “Regeneration” trilogy of novels, I have been fascinated by the history of World War I, and am often surprised by how many pieces of art take me back to it. In my new collection, Sotto Voce, published by Brick Books, the poem “A State of Undress” explores the art by the group of (mostly) women artists known as the Beaver Hall group in Montreal; this group was formally founded in 1920. Seeing a 2016 exhibit of their work at the Hamilton Art Gallery made me realize how these artists were painting in the shadow of World War I. For women artists—mostly not working-class women—that war opened the opportunity of going to art school, as so many male artists were off in the trenches. Several of these women artists lost brothers or fiancés in the trenches, and these losses are echoes in their art.
I was also struck by how critics, curators and judges—and the public—responded to some of these women’s art. In particular, Lilias Torrance Newton’s painting, Nude in the Studio, was removed in 1933 from a Canadian Group of Painters exhibition at the Art Gallery of Toronto, following public furor over the picture. As the co-curator of the 2016 exhibit, Brian Foss, said about Newton’s painting, “Critics complained the green sandals and lipstick and I-don't-care-you're-looking-at-me attitude suggests she wasn't nude—she was naked and that was a different thing altogether." Other critics dismissed the painting by calling it “merely a state of undress,” a phrase I borrowed for the title of the poem.
Lilias Torrance Newton, Nude in the Studio (1933)
But besides their art, I was fascinated by how the ten women of the group, which disbanded a mere two years after its inauguration in 1920, continued what we would now call an informal support network, and were critical in establishing opportunities to show their work. My poem alludes to my own experience, working with feminists across the country on our politics, our projects, and our art.
The lives of Canadian lesbian artists have been explored beautifully by Arleen Paré in her 2017 book of poetry, The Girls with Stone Faces, about sculptors and lifelong “companions,” Florence Wyle and Frances Loring. In the Beaver Hall exhibit, I thought I might have found a small whisper of sexual attraction among women. Regina Seiden, who was a close associate of the Beaver Hall group, painted Dora (1923), a portrait of the young poet, Theodora Gidlow. From the Beaver Hall exhibit’s notes, I borrowed Gidlow’s description of Seiden to end my poem: “Like a dreamy // purring kitten, velvety and luxurious—” and commented, “pretty sure I know what that means.”
Regina Seiden, Dora (1923)
But, as I say in “Keep it Dark,” another ekphrastic poem in Sotto Voce, “We’re always / looking backwards in galleries and books / to find women like ourselves.” In the Fan the Flames photography exhibit curated by Sophie Hackett at the Art Gallery of Ontario (2014), I ran across an old black-and-white photo of four women at a dinner table, I thought perhaps at a resort in the 1950s. I copied the words handwritten under the photo by the anonymous photographer, “The Queer Quartet” and “Keep it Dark”—to me these words were a touchstone of how these friendships sustained these women through an era when it was a necessity to remain closeted. The words felt like another artifact brought up to the surface from the dive, reclaimed.
Hurricane Hazel, in 1954, was an intense weather event that permanently scarred Toronto; before reaching Toronto, it had killed almost 500 people in Haiti, and went on to kill almost a hundred in the US, and another 81 in the Toronto region. My poem, “Inside Hazel,” recalls my childhood memory of the hurricane’s aftermath, but also celebrates the way the storm stalled a train and how, in that lull, two colleagues at Massachusetts’ Concord Academy discovered a mutual attraction. These were Helen Sontoff and Jane Rule, who later moved to Vancouver (and even later Galiano Island). Rule became “Canada’s only visible lesbian,” a moniker that put her job at UBC in jeopardy. Though I don’t agree with every single opinion that Jane Rule voiced, I feel a debt to her outspokenness, her courage, and her contributions to Canadian letters and to her community. Writing “Inside Hazel” was a pleasure for me—hauling up to the surface that moment of the couple’s delight inside a catastrophe, the treasure within the damage.
"Much of women’s history is left behind, unremembered and under-studied, but when I see the online reproduction of Seiden’s Dora, or Newton’s Nude in the Studio, I am also struck by the whiteness of the artists, and of their subjects."
This autumn, I’ve been taking a course given by Hoa Nguyen on documentary or investigative poetry, using C. D. Wright’s One With Others about the U.S. civil rights struggle as our text. As a result, I have been considering in more depth who the speaker is in poems about historical events; who is being spoken about; what assumptions the poet is making—in short, the ethics / the voices/ the entanglements, of writing poetically about historical events. Much of women’s history is left behind, unremembered and under-studied, but when I see the online reproduction of Seiden’s Dora, or Newton’s Nude in the Studio, I am also struck by the whiteness of the artists, and of their subjects. These artists represent a narrow slice of women’s history (some—but not all—relatively privileged, white, able-bodied), and still their lives are less than visible.
But in Sotto Voce, women’s lives, both straight and queer, present the balancing points between love and loss, danger and safety, observation and action, the lives of those who came before and those alive today, the natural world, and the one we’ve built.
Finally, to touch on matters of poetic form and the tension between more allusive, abstract poetry and poetry that is more traditionally direct and clear, there is a quote I like from Gustav Mahler: “The point is not to worship the ashes, but to preserve the fire.” I am drawn to the fire of writers and poets who espouse feminism and critique it as well, who are challenging racism and tyranny, who declare their queerness and their solidarity with marginalized groups, who acknowledge the work of previous generations and aim to go beyond it—in short, artists who are also trying to change the world as well as their own practice.

Chella Choi fired a 6-under 66 on Thursday to take a one-shot lead heading into the second round at the Manulife LPGA Classic. Choi, who had one bogey on a near prefect day at Whistle Bear Golf Club, leads In Gee Chun, Dani Holmqvist, Brittany Lang and Azahara Munoz.
Choi, who won the Marathon Classic presented by Owens Corning & O-I in 2015, is looking for her second victory on Tour. The Korea native said she felt good today and has been working on her driver recently. Choi is ranked 18th on Tour in driving accuracy (75.56%) and 90th in average driving distance (252.27).
“Pretty good,” said Choi. “A lot of wind today, but my game is good and driving is good, shot was good, so I made a lot of birdies.”
She’s coming off a top-10 finish of T-7 at last week’s Canadian Pacific Women’s Open and attributes her play on the hard work she put in the past several weeks.
“I worked really hard the last three weeks,” said Choi. “So I want to hit straight and strong my drive four days, so I focus on just my driving four days strong drive. So I don’t know. First good, so that’s why my driving is better, so game is more easier than before.”
Defending champ Suzann Pettersen (69) sits in a tie for 17th alongside Alena Sharp and Maude-Aimee Leblanc the low Canadians.

On November 28, The Shreveport City Council passed an ordinance that creates an official Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program, which it calls the city’s preferred method for community cats. The ordinance becomes effective on December 8.
Caddo Parish Commissioner Matthew Linn, whose district includes Shreveport, spearheaded the effort to implement the ordinance along with City Councilmembers Jeff Everson and Oliver Jenkins, who first introduced it at a November 14 council meeting. Thanks to the council’s quick action and the support of advocates, the measure passed swiftly.
The ordinance ensures that animal control officers and shelters do their part to support TNR and protect community cats. It declares that animal control and shelter staff will “prioritize the Trap-Neuter-Return method as the preferred outcome for community cats by directing impounded, non-eartipped, free-roaming cats to the Trap-Neuter-Return process.” (Eartipping is the universal sign that community cats have been part of a TNR program.)
Animal control will no longer impound eartipped cats, and only allow the trapping of community cats to conduct TNR. With 70 percent of catsand virtually 100 percent of community catskilled in shelters nationwide, these changes will mean the difference between life and death for countless Shreveport cats.
The ordinance also defines important terms like “community cat” and “community cat caregiver,” which protect the cats and the compassionate citizens who care for them. For example, the ordinance states clearly that community cat caregivers are not “the owner, custodian, harborer, controller, or keeper of a community cat.” So caregivers do not have the responsibilities of an owner, like following mandatory licensing laws, which are almost impossible to uphold for unsocialized community cats. It also means that returning cats to their outdoor homes as part of TNR cannot be considered “abandonment.”
Alley Cat Allies has been working with Shreveport advocates and officials to introduce an official TNR program, and we’re proud and delighted to see this ordinance on the books. In August 2017, our staff traveled to Shreveport to meet with key stakeholders to boost discussions on TNR. We held presentations and spoke one-on-one with shelter staff, spay/neuter clinic staff, local government officials, and citizens about the benefits of a TNR program.
We also had some help from local advocate Candy Peavy, board president of Robinson’s Rescue, a local high-volume, low-cost spay/neuter clinic. Peavy has been meeting with local officials for years to urge the adoption of a TNR ordinance. She sees firsthand how much TNR helps cats and residentsthe clinic has provided thousands of spay/neuter surgeries for owned and community cats.
“TNR has been in the public dialogue here for a while, but it’s always just been up to individuals” to carry it out, Peavy says. “An official TNR ordinance will do great things for this cityand its cats!”
Thank you to the Shreveport City Council, especially Councilmembers Jeff Everson and Oliver Jenkins, as well as Caddo Parish Commissioner Matthew Linn, for passing this lifesaving ordinance and creating a more feline-friendly community. Alley Cat Allies looks forward to seeing the positive impact of this new TNR program.

Increasing shelf-life with puf coldrooms
A Kenyan innovation dubbed Puf Panels Coldrooms, the first of a kind in Sub-Sahara, is projected to overcome losses usually associated with the uncertainty of seasons.
The technology is important in food and agriculture processing as produce relies on temperature, humidity, gas and other factors to remain fresh.
The stainless steel coldrooms are and hygienically built. They are fitted with sandwiched polyurethane panels a metal casing.
The coldrooms have insulated panels and machinery to control temperature.
Suresh Kanotra, the MD of Sheffield Steel Systems Ltd in Nairobi, says the innovation can also dry harvested onions, ginger and garlic through the reverse process of coldrooms. The dried produce has a long shelf-life as it is dehydrated.
He says the National Cereals and Produce Board offers post harvest services like drying, grading and fumigation but there are no such mechanisms for fresh produce.
“Local farmers were in pain when the pandemic struck in 2020. Flights were cancelled, meaning those who produced oats and other perishable goods suffered heavy losses,” he says.
The puf panel set-up entails a selection of machines, based on what is in the coldroom.
Sheffield Steel Systems Ltd makes coldrooms that are powered by solar. These are ideal for smallholder farmers as they reduce the cost of production. Some farmers opt for hybrid coldrooms.
Kanotra says for one to set up a coldroom, they need to identify the type of crop and be in a position to define the production rate and cycle. Design and size depend on where the coldroom is supposed to be.
The smallest is 8x8 feet while the largest is 50x50 metres, Kanotra says.
He adds that Sheffield Steel Systems Ltd has assembled 300 cold rooms since 2017, translating to 30 to 40 a year.
Locally assembled coldrooms are classified into chillers and deep freezers.
They provide a controlled mechanism to store food without losing nutrients and other value.
“With the gadget, you can control temperature, gases and humidity. To store food for long, one can freeze it to -18 degrees Celsius but for shorter periods, the temperature can be adjusted to 2-6 degrees,” he says.
Kanotra adds that most fresh produce farmers incur losses due to lack of storage kits.
“The farmers are at the mercy of middlemen and the weather,” he says.
The Sheffield Steel Systems Ltd MD says with a coldroom, a farmer will not be in a rush to take his or her produce to the market. Selling it long after harvesting fetches higher prices as demand will be high.
One can also import apples from South Africa or another country, for instance, during the peak season and place them in a coldroom for sale later.
Depending on demand, the apple trader can change the conditions and put the produce in the ripening chamber before selling at high prices.

What is a Mini CNC Mill?
What is a mini CNC mill?
A mini CNC mill is a compact machining center. It provides an economical solution for small parts machining in a compact package that is loaded with full-size features.
The chief limitation of a mini mill is not so much the quality of the work it can produce, but the size of the work it can handle.
Uses of mini CNC mills
A mini CNC mill is perfect for schools, start-up shops, or as a first step into CNC machining.
Mini mills are a serious investment, bringing industrial-style machining capabilities to the home or shop. Mini mills possess the power to take a piece of raw scrap and quickly turn it into a useable part, something you can’t say about a hammer or a saw.

Form Tuesday May 7 to 9 , Google’s annual I/O Developers Conference will kick off, with the first keynote speech from Google CEO Sundar Pichai and other executives.
In the keynote session, Google will outline a number of features and improvements for Android, Google Assistant, and many other apps and services over the next year. This year is slightly different, because Google will almost certainly release two new Pixel smartphones in the keynote speech, adding a lower cost option to the typical smartphone update cycle. Google will also announce a number of AI improvements, machine learning and even excellent search techniques during this keynote presentation.
Here are the top 8 highlights of this Google Developer Conference:
Mid-range phones Pixel 3A and Pixel 3A XL
A few days ago, there were a lot of information leaks from Pixel 3A and Pixel 3A XL, but the last wave of exposure basically confirmed all the information about Google’s upcoming mid-range Pixel phone, including the price. The Pixel 3A is priced at $399 and the 6-inch larger Pixel 3A XL is priced at $479.
The two new phones are expected to offer comparable camera performance to the flagship Pixel 3 at far lower prices. Google has reduced costs in other mobile phones, including the use of lower-performance processors, cell phone materials from glass to plastic, and wireless charging. However, the new Pixel phone will be re-equipped with a headphone jack.
This is Google’s most aggressive pricing on mobile phones over the years, and the price is even lower than the one plus mobile phone, aiming to create a popular mobile phone in the middle of the year. Pixel 3A and Pixel 3A XL will receive three years of system and security update support, plus the addition of Call Screen to pick up calls.
More comprehensive Android Q preview system
Google has released several Android Q betas, but it’s very likely to leave some of the more significant features on the stage of the I/O Developers Conference. As the next major version of Android, Android Q will provide users with more flexible privacy controls, including limiting the ability of apps to track user locations when they are actively used. Google has added Diablo mode, color themes, and shared menus that respond much faster in earlier beta releases. Android Q will also lay the foundation for the future of foldable phones.
Google seems to be fixing the gesture navigation of Pixel phones, and there are even signs that Google will offer a PC mode similar to Samsung DeX after your phone is plugged into an external display. Of course, the final version of Android Q also includes more features. Google is likely to push Android Q updates to consumers later this summer. Google should release more information next Tuesday, and it is possible to release a new beta version.
Smart Home New Nest Hub Max
Google has already exposed a larger, new Nest product on its Home Hub smart display page. The Nest Hub Max features a 10-inch display with built-in stereo speakers. In addition, it will run the same system as Home Hub, featuring Google Assistant and providing a visual interface. Its price is still unclear, but the 7-inch Home Hub is priced at $150.
As a Nest branded camera with built-in camera, it is also very likely to add home security features not available in Home Hub, which is not equipped with a camera. Smart displays plus smart cameras sound great.
Cloud Game Service Stadia Details
Google released the cloud game service Stadia at the Game Developers Conference, which will be available this year. But Google has not released some important details, including subscription fees. Google is likely to show Stadia again through the I/O conference stage, providing more specific consumer offering information. However, Google may also wait until the June E3 Game Conference to announce more details.
Google Assistant and Google Smart Lens
Every year, Google will spend a lot of time showing the progress they have made on Google Assistant to show why Google Assistant is smarter and more powerful than Amazon’s Alexa. There is also Google Lens, which converts the camera of an Android phone into a powerful computer vision tool.
More Google Photos Improvements
In the past few years, Google Photos has actually become a photo management application for many people. Google usually launches some new features for Google Photos at the I/O conference, which will go live in a few weeks or months
Wear OS and Android TV messages may not be much
In the beginning of this year, Google apparently decided not to let Wear OS news become a hot topic in the I/O conference. Wear OS will add a new sweepable tool, Tiles, which allows users to easily query weather forecasts, next schedules, news headlines, and more. Google announced before the I / O conference that this feature indicates that Wear OS will not get much display time.
Similarly, there are no signs that Google will make significant plans to significantly improve or redesign Android TV this year. The cool Android TV related products announced at the I/O conference last year are still not listed, but the system is constantly coming to a series of TV manufacturers’ products, including Sony and Hisense.
Must-see demo this year?
Last year, Google first publicly demonstrated the AI Black Technology Duplex, which is an eye-opener. Duplex allows Google Assistant to make a voice call to call a local merchant to make an appointment on behalf of the user. Realistically, it is difficult for Google to present a more amazing demonstration at this year’s conference. But everything is hard to say.


The speed at which a projectile travels, usually given in meters per second (m/s).
Muzzle velocity refers to the velocity of a projectile as it leaves the barrel or muzzle device.
The ballistic coefficient (BC) of a body is a measure of its ability to overcome air resistance in flight. It is inversely proportional to the negative acceleration: a high number indicates a low negative acceleration — the drag on the body is small in proportion to its mass.
Or in simple words: the higher the value, the better the flight characteristics and the less energy loss over the distance.
More details on Wikipedia
Specifies the number of health points that are deducted when a body part is hit. If a body part has less health points than is deducted, the excess damage is distributed to other body parts.
Is given in absolute or relative numbers.
If absolute, then it indicates the number of durability points that are deducted when the projectile hits the armor.
The damage passed through to the part of the body protected by the armor if the projectile does not penetrate.
Indicates the ability of ammunition to penetrate body armor or, to a lesser extent, world objects.
Indicates the probability of penetrating armor.
Indicates the probability of a projectile fragmenting in a body. The number of fragments varies from ammunition to ammunition. Each fragment deals 50% additional damage to the part of the body that is hit.
Note: Currently, ammunition does not fragment if the penetration power value is below
Indicates the class of the armor. Armors are divided into 6 different classes, of which 6 is the most resistant class.
The material indicates the destructibility and reparability of armor.
It indicates the armor’s resistance to external damage.


Razer’s Project Fiona Tablet Looks Like a Cross Between the Wii U Controller and a TIE Fighter
It may look like somebody taped a couple of Move navigation controllers to the side of an iPad, but this is, in fact, a tablet designed exclusively for gaming. Razer’s Project Fiona was unveiled at CES and the hardware maker says the system is designed to allow for “hardcore PC gaming on the go.” The demo versions at the convention run Windows 7 but Razer says the product’s retail release will run on Windows 8.
The tablet features two joysticks, four shoulder buttons and eight face buttons. Razer says one of the limitations of current handhelds is their lackluster sound presentation and counters that 7.1 surround capabilities and THX certification will make its product stand out. No pricing was announced, but we’ll give you the full list of announced specs after the jump.
Project Fiona runs on an Intel i7 Core Processor and is capable of 16:10 displays. The rest of the tech specs released by Razer are as follows:
- Hybrid user interface for PC gaming
- Intel® Core™ i7
- 10.1″ 1280×800 display
- Full-screen user interface supporting multi-touch
- 3-axis gyro, magnetometer, accelerometer
- Force feedback
- Dolby® 7.1 surround sound
- WiFi 802.11b/g/n
- Bluetooth® 3.0
What intrigues me most is the tablet’s eight face buttons, four on each side placed symmetrically. Maybe one of Razer’s goals is to be known as the handheld gaming solution for lefties. Looks like Razer wants to take on the Vita directly with this concept. The product pitches really focus on Fiona’s graphical capabilities and processing power. Take a look at the gallery below and judge the project’s proposed build for yourselves.

Eggleston, H. S. (1982) Electron paramagnetic resonance of rutile pigments. Doctoral thesis, Durham University.
An Electron Paramagnetic Resonance study of rutile (TiO(_2)) pigments doped with either iron or chromium has been performed. The spectra of the Cr(^3+) ion has been observed and confirmed by computation. In iron doped pigments a signal with g = 4.28 was observed and has been attributed to the Fe(^3+) ion in a site of rhombic symmetry. The effect of irradiation by light on the Fe(^3*) ion in a substitutional site has been examined and seen to be different from that for single crystal samples ; only wavelengths longer than 700 nm affect it. A light-generated line was observed with 'g' values g(_11) = 2.010, g(_1) = 2.005. The response of this line is related to the concentration of iron. The data has been analysed and correlates reasonably well with accepted models for the positions of the defect centres within the band gap.

1 February 2019: Frigid weather that paralyzed a large swath of the United States this week and caused at least 21 deaths began moderating on Friday as an Arctic air mass pulled away, setting the stage for a warmer weekend in the Midwest and the Northeast.
Temperatures from southern New England to the Upper Midwest should reach the mid-40s to low 50s Fahrenheit through the weekend and Monday, forecasters said, after a record-breaking cold snap that stopped mail deliveries in some parts of the Midwest and shuttered schools and businesses.
Meteorologists linked the spell of brutal cold to the so-called polar vortex, a cap of icy air that usually swirls over the North Pole. Changing air currents caused it to slip down through Canada and into the U.S. Midwest this week.
Bryan Jackson, a National Weather Service meteorologist, said the core of the vortex was pulling north into eastern Canada, though residual icy air was still pushing over to the U.S. Northeast.
Temperatures on Friday morning ranged from below zero Fahrenheit to the teens in parts of New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and New Jersey.
"That cold air that was over the Great Lakes, over the Midwest, has shifted off. Now the high pressure is over Pennsylvania and New York," Jackson said in a phone interview. "As it moves east, it'll bring in air from the south and we do expect it to warm up over the weekend."
Temperatures in the Upper Midwest, including Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, will reach well above zero F (minus 18C) on Friday, with highs making it into the teens and low 20s.
Even so, parts of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa were still experiencing temperatures in the negative single digits, Jackson said.
The lowest temperature recorded early Friday morning was minus 34 Fahrenheit (minus 36 Celsius) in Stonington, Michigan, according to the National Weather Service.
By Saturday, highs will be in the 30s and even low 40s in the Midwest. The central Plains will be in the low 60s, nearly 20 to 25 degrees above normal, the weather service said.
More than 40 cold-temperature records were broken on Thursday, the coldest morning since the polar vortex moved in late on Tuesday. The mass of Arctic air had clung to a swath of the United States from Iowa and the Dakotas across the Great Lakes region and into Maine for days.
Officials across multiple states linked numerous deaths to the frigid air. The death toll rose after at least nine more people in Chicago were reported to have died from cold-related injuries, according to Stathis Poulakidas, a doctor at the city's John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital.
But on Friday, Amtrak train services that had been halted since Wednesday in Chicago's hub will resume, as will U.S. postal service halted or limited in six Midwest states.
Thousands of flights were canceled and delayed earlier in the week, mostly out of Chicago, but on Friday the flight-tracking site FlightAware reported nationwide cancellations down to just over 950.

The aftermarket manufacturer Project Kahn is no stranger to getting the most out of big money exotic vehicles.
More recently the tuning firm has revealed a new customization kit for the most exclusive Daimler super car built to date, the Mercedes McLaren SLR.
This modified Mercedes is called the SLR Carbon, and as the name suggests features a healthy diet of the lightweight wavy black stuff.
Even the F1-X Carbon wheels, built for performance, are made up of a carbon fiber rim and a lightweight magnesium face.
The result is an extremely attractive rim that tips the scales at around 25 pounds, allowing for the ultimate reduction of unsprung mass.

A number of European organizations have promoted the harmonized, binding sustainability criteria for biomass on the EU-level.
This follows the "Programme of the Irish Presidency of the Council of the European Union", where it is says that the commission is expected to publish a possible directive defining sustainability criteria for biomass (including electricity, heating and cooling). An initial report outlining the progress of the criteria is expected in June 2013 according to the programme of the Irish Presidency.
RECS International is supportive of all harmonized, binding sustainability criteria being implemented at the EU-level. This has the opportunity to ease the confusion among consumers and make the purchase of EU sustainable biomass an easier choice for consumers to make.
