The first month of 2019 is almost over and we're heavily preparing for our upcoming events (to be announced soon!) for the rest of the year. Right before Chinese New Year starts next week, here's our monthly round-up of the Industry 4.0 news all manufacturers should know:
Foxconn Goes 'Lights-Off'
In case you weren't aware, Shanghai-listed Foxconn (which is Apple's largest manufacturing contractor) has a plant in Shenzhen that employs 'lights-off' or 'lights-out' manufacturing. This means that the factory is fully automated and uses robots in the production line, requiring fewer human workers on site.
Foxconn has announced that their 'lights-off' factory has recently been added to the World Economic Forum (WEF) shortlist of 'Manufacturing Lighthouses', i.e. manufacturing facilities with industry 4.0-leading innovation. It joins a total of just 15 other factories that have received this accolade.
As per KR Asia and WEF, Foxconn's factory has increased production efficiency by 30% and reduced inventory cycle by 15% with its 'automated optimization system for Machine Learning and AI devices, an intelligent self-maintenance system, and an intelligent real-time monitoring system'.
Siemens Develops Edge Device
German conglomerate Siemens has been pushing boundaries when it comes to Industry 4.0; they've sponsored a lab at the HCM University of Technology in Vietnam, and also developed a Industrial Edge Platform that will capture and process data in (almost) real-time.
This edge device, as per Drives & Controls, 'has an enclosed, all-metal housing, (and) is designed for flexible, maintenance-free operation in harsh conditions'. The aim is to bridge the gap between local and cloud-based data processing of large data volumes.
To test out the platform, Siemens is using it themselves in one of their factories in Amberg, Germany. Sensor data will be transmitted to the device, and then analysed by a machine learning algorithm that can flag abnormalities. So far, 'the edge application can predict bearing erosion and machine downtime 12–36 hours before a failure occurs. This allows the machine spindle to be changed during the next scheduled service, thus avoiding costly unplanned downtime.'
Jabil Engineers Materials for Additive Manufacturing
Global electronics manufacturer Jabil has announced that it will launch 'a complete solution for creating, integrating and validating custom engineered materials for additive manufacturing', per Manufacturing Global.
These Jabil Engineered Materials were designed after a survey sponsored by the company showed that a crucial factory impeding adoption of 3D printing was the cost and availability of materials.
The first industry that Jabil will target is Aerospace, which requires heavily-engineered parts that are usually customised for optimal weight.

Letter to CEO DJB Water Aug 2013
Letter to CEO DJB Water Aug 2013.pdf
August 16, 2013
Ms.Debashree Mukherjee(IAS)
Chief Executive officer
Delhi Jal Board
Office No. 306,
Varunalaya Building,
Jhandewalan II,
New Delhi, Delhi - 110055,
Respected Mam,
Subject: Water Supply to Dwarka Sub-City
This further to our meeting with The Chairman, DJB, Chief Minister of Delhi, Shrimati Sheila Dikshit and further meetings held with your good self.
As you are well aware that the water supply to Dwarka is very very poor and almost on daily basis we receive umpteen numbers of calls from residents of different Sectors of Dwarka. . The Govt planned this sub-city way back 20 years now and taken due development charges. The basic supply of safe drinking water as per govt own set standard not being implemented in Dwarka till date.
In this regard we would like to draw your kind attention to our letters and two meetings on 18th October, 2012 and 29th July, 2013. We are sorry to inform you that despite the fact that Chief Minister of Delhi has accepted the transfer of water supply from DDA to DJB in the meeting held on 22/12/2009, things have not moved an inch. We would like to know the action taken by DJB in this respect and the bottlenecks specifically related to taking over of water supply from DDA.
We would also like to know the:
- Requirement of water for Dwarka as per estimation by DJB
- How much water is being provided to Dwarka and
- How much water is being diverted to IGI Airport.
The most unfortunate part is that we are not getting any response from any your officers except diverting the issue to Munak Canal.
We therefore, call upon DJB to take over the water supply of Dwarka Sub-City from DDA and ensure equal of water supply to Dwarka at the same rate as applicable to rest of Delhi.
We look forward to hearing from you at the earliest.
Thanking you.
For and on behalf of Dwarka Forum(Regd.)

Er. H S Dharamsattu
Chief Engineer
Dwarka Project,DDA
Respected Sir
Subject: Water Supply to Dwarka Sub-City
As you are well aware that the water supply to Dwarka is very poor and almost on daily basis we have been receiving call from different sectors about that. DDA and Ministry of Urban Development planned this sub-city way back 20 years now. The basic supply of safe drinking water as per govt own set standard not being implemented by DDA till date.
In this regard I would like to draw your kind attention on our letters dated 16.7.2010,13.8.2010 and 19.01.2011 and various email correspondence and series of meetings held with then member DDA Shri Rajesh Gahlot we are sorry to inform that the situation is becoming bad to worse. Drinking water supply is almost dream for residents of Dwarka. Despite the fact that CM Delhi has accepted the transfer of water supply from DDA to DJB in the meeting held on 22/12/2009 we have not moved an inch towards that. We would like to know the action taken by DDA in this respect and the bottlenecks which deprives residents in Dwarka from portable water.
We would also like to know the requirement of water for Dwarka as per estimation by DDA and how much water you are receiving from DDA excluding what is being diverted to IGI Airport. We have been informed by various Societies and RWA that they are continuously informing your sub-ordinates regularly from Junior Engineer to Superintendent Engineers but it appears DDA is turning its blind eye so far as water supply to Dwarka is concerned.
The most unfortunate part is that we are not getting any response from any your officers except a verbal assurance that issue is being addressed.
We therefore, call upon DDA and MuD to ensure equal water supply for Dwarka at equal rate with rest of Delhi. Till the time the specified quantity of water not supplied, you are requested not to start any project or development any further sectors or sub city in Delhi.
On behalf of Dwarka Forum we request you to please respond to this letter at the earliest.
Thanking you.
For and on behalf of Dwarka Forum(Regd.)

Letter to Additional Commissioner of Police
July 11, 2013
Shri. Anil Kumar Ojha
Additional Commissioner of Police
Delhi Police
South West District
Sector 19, Dwarka
Dear Sir,
Subject: Preparation of Dwarka Police
Recently we have terror strike at Bodhgaya and there are news that terrorists are again looking to target Delhi.Dwarka is of course on top list because of having International Airport,Metro stations and crowded market.We should also keep in mind that 15th August is coming and thereafter we will have series of festivals.
We wish to highlight that after visiting all market place in our area it appears that our police is not taking any precautionary measures to counter such threat.We have seen even a dozen of sylinders are kept in the footpath between two shops and that's too with in a distance of 10 meters from police beat installed in sector 6 market.pedestrain between the shops have been wholy encroached .Many shops are using cylinder to cook somasa and pakora outside the shops in both sector 6/10 and 5/12 sectors area.In our view some concrete action needs to be taken to ensure safety of the people otherwise these situation is vulnerable and enemies always use such mismanage to hit us.
We take this opportunity to submit that necessary instruction must be given to officer concerned so that people of Dwarka will enjoy independence day and festival peacefully.
Jai Hind!
Yours sincerely,
President – Dwarka Forum (Regd).
Cc: Mr. Neeraj Kumar
Commissioner of Police

- Beat Constable – Accountability:
A Beat Constable is the Public Face of Delhi Police and the 1st contact points for Public as well as Violators. Currently if you ask Beat constable what is his duties and objectives or task. He/she will have no clue. There must be clear direction in WRITTEN the list of responsibility for the beat constable and in the failure to adhere the listed accountable departmental action. For example: A beat constable still have no clue whether he have power to remove an encroachment on public area/land at first instance.
- Beat Boxes and Security Posts:
A large number of Police Beat Box and Security Box were removed in the past due to reason both valid and some cases invalid. These Boxes or Posts are need of the hour. A security check staff posted at entry/exit points of PS boundry or Bandhabast position need shelter to give protection from weather conditions. While deciding its design the sample used in CWG may be considered which is glass so that no anti social elements misuse or even staffs not use it as sleeping shelter or drinking and other purpose etc.
- Display of Boards at the Exit gate of all PS about important contact Nos: All the police station EXIT Gate promptly display the Contact No/Email/Fax/Mobile No of all Senior officials hierarchy wise including a special post at DCP Office to handle grievance of unsatisfied citizen coming out from PS without getting his complaint registered or harassment or Corruption etc.
- CCTV: A large number of CCTV installed during CWG which are to be equally distributed to various Police Stations and install at all vital ENTRY & EXIST and Markets. The DF actively played role in CCTV installation and Control room for Sector 6/10 Market.
Street Lights: Dwarka Forum have conducted extensive work to get all the street light functional in close coordination with respective Police Officials. We were assured by DDA and BSES Officials. The DDA Electrical Division will be completing the unlit areas by the end of March 2011. Those inner areas where BSES have empty pole the DDA will be replacing it and handing over to BSES.

Met with J for a private lesson with both Holly and Mikey this afternoon. Mikey went first and had a great time, and was doing a great job of ignoring distractions (my mom came to take pictures, and my dad came for a lesson with his young dog Meg, as well as several dogs in the runs of the boarding kennel right on the other side of the fence). He also was following my hand cues very well, great progress there! One funny thing was his airheadedness with the tunnels today. He has been rocketing through tunnels, but today kept stopping and looking at me like 'Huh?' Really strange since most of the tunnels he has been doing recently have been after dark, with dark colored tunnels, which makes them look like black holes to nowhere. Today with bright sunshine, and bright yellow tunnels, he was hesitant. Go figure.
Holly went second and really struggled today. She did have a little diarrhea last night, and so maybe she was just feeling a little crummy still today. On the other hand, she does have a bit of a history of really enjoying a new sport (tracking, obedience), and really excelling, and then after the novelty wears off, just not being very interested anymore. Holly has considerably less drive than Mikey, which frankly makes her generally easier to live with, but also makes training with her more of a challenge. I really have to play cheer leader with her to keep her interested in what we are doing, which wears me out more than trying to keep up with speedy little Mikey. Holly has been doing pretty well in our Thursday evening class though, so I hope she was just off today, and not turning off on agility in general. She is really hard to figure out sometimes; she has a complicated personality and sometimes I just feel clueless as to what really floats her boat. Of course she's still my little doll.
Thank goodness we had the chance to play today, since the forecast is calling for rain all week and we will probably miss our Thursday evening class (and yes, it is still Mikey's turn). Both of the kids are sacked out on the couch (nice thing about those short legs, we all fit on the couch without crowding). My hips and knees are throbbing (someday more on the round about with my health). Too, too sad the weekend is over!
My mom got some great action shots. Enjoy! Also notice the great way both dogs are following my hand signals! Progress!!
Holly and Mikey say 'Hi'.

Huxley Berg Studios has released a really awesome LEGO remake of the Venom movie trailer, and even if you don't think the film looks great, you should still check out this fan video.
What really stood out to me was the use of clay to pull off Venom's attacks and look. It makes the video feel that much more authentic to have symbiote goo shooting out of the little brick man playing Eddie Brock. Plus, his transformation to Venom looks masterful in LEGO form through the use of clay. It's just a great little practical effect that works perfectly to bring Venom and his attacks to life.
If you haven't liked a single Venom trailer yet, then I urge you to check out the LEGO-ized one above. Venom hits theaters this October.

Private companies, government agencies, and other businesses need office clerks to contribute to the efficiency of operations. As high school graduates, office clerks are capable of communicating orally and through the written word. An office clerk can be tasked to do general or specialized work. Normally, an office clerk stays at the workplace for at least forty hours a week. When the office clerk does work overtime, there is a monetary equivalent for it. The office clerk can be trained to do higher level clerical work. Bookkeeping, typing correspondence, entertaining clients, typing reports, and answering telephone calls are only among the duties.
An office clerk supervises other staff on how to use the computer applications for work. Complaints are addressed, clients' inquiries are answered, emails about the company products and services are responded to, supply of materials is provided, and communication between higher level people and staff is facilitated. Incoming documents are received. Outgoing documents are generated. Documents received are routed to the people addressed to. Files received are placed into folders. Invoices are collected for business purchases. The money of the workers is computed and given to them. Memos are created to inform workers of important announcements.
Travel arrangements are done for the people in the business and outside appointments are made for the superiors. Communication with clients is done effectively. Office machines such as photocopiers, fax machines, scanners, personal computers, and voice mail systems are operated. Reports are proofread and distributed to the people involved. Files are updated and kept. Inventories are kept accurate for ordering of new supplies. Database systems have the latest information about the workers. Messages are delivered to the recipients. Errands are done for the superiors. Materials and supplies are checked to ensure complete supply regularly. Work schedules are created. Calendars are updated so that workers know what is going on in the business.
Rotation of Duties
Workers in a lower level are supervised. Materials are counted, weighed, measured, and organized. Meeting agendas are created. Attendance in meetings is required. During meetings, the minutes are written and typed. Computer software and hardware are fixed as needed. An office clerk may not be confined in doing a specific duty only on a particular day. The office clerk can be rotated around departments doing clerical duties. On a Monday, the office clerk can be computing for the workers' money. On a Tuesday, the office clerk can be creating reports and correspondence.
Computers have been used in businesses since its existence began. Despite this proliferation in technology, the office clerk will not disappear. An office clerk is always needed to be part of efficient work operations. The duties that the office clerk does are menial and contribute to the success of the business. Office clerks are tasked to maintain confidentiality in handling business documents. Aspiring office clerks can apply for work openings found through classified ads and through referral. There are always plenty of opportunities to get for office clerks. An office clerk needs to be patient and perseverant in multi-tasking.*

Strong support for airport initiative
November 13, 2018 7:36 am
Kevin Weedmark
Jeff St Onge says there has been strong support from local municipalities for the proposal to make improvements to Moosomins airport that would allow the Saskatchewan Air Ambulance to better serve the area. The air ambulance currently doesnt land at the Moosomin airport because of the lack of lights and a paved surface.
St Onge and Dr. Schalk Van Der Merwe have spoken to the Moosomin Chamber of Commerce, town councils and RM councils across the area and have been encouraged by the response so far.
Were approaching half a million dollars in pledges and commitments from the municipalities, and were still trying to get around to all of the RMs, St. Onge said Thursday.
Yesterday I had a meeting with Walpole. This morning I just got back into my office from Silverwood. This afternoon Im in Wawota for the RM of Wawken and later in the afternoon Im in Maryfield for the RM of Maryfield and then after that I still have Rocanville RM, the two RMs in Manitoba are scheduledWallace-Woodworth and Ellice-Archiethen Im going to speak to the RM of Antler.
When those meetings are done, and SARM and Agribition are done, were going to have an airport committee of all of these people from each RM and or town and or village and put them all together in one room and say how are we going to do this?
The committee is hoping to raise as much funding as possible through local municipalities, have that matched under the provincial CAPP program for airports, then raise any additional money needed from corporate donors.
The group has met with the provincial government to see if it would be possibly to increase the limit on the matching provincial CAPP funding for airports, currently capped at $70,000 per year.
On Monday we met with Minister (Lori) Carr, said St. Onge. She is the minister responsible for highways and infrastructure and two of her people were there as well and they looked at the proposal. We just wanted to make her aware of what were looking fore here, and that we put in a request for more money to be put in CAPP because there are three big projects coming upMoosomin, Moose Jaw and North Battleford are three communities with projects that are trying to get the maximum for the program.
St. Onge said the meeting with the minister went well.
She and the officials we met with were very knowledgablethey were very, very helpful in moving forward and what we would need and our next steps.
Her home riding is Estevan so she fully understands how hard it is to get to Saskatoon, so she was very, very good.
We had sent in a detailed proposal and she was absolutely up to speed and she had read it. She already knew what questions she wanted to ask. I was quite encouraged by her understanding and support.
Having said that, no financial commitments were made in that meeting and of course she cant unilaterally make those, but I know that we have an advocate in her.
He said the main point of the meeting was to push for an increase in the CAPP limit.
If there was an actual action item for that meeting, it was to make a request to have that CAPP funding increase so it can handle multiple projects around the province.
The limit is $700,000 per year, which doesnt go far in a major airport upgrade. It used to be $500,000, so it has been steadily growing. I know one of the things we had asked about was there is that federal infrastructure money in that $90 million dollar range per year for the next ten years. I asked if that would free up money in other areas and she said no, unfortunately it ties up more money because some of that money needs to be matched at the provincial level. I just know after our meeting that we have an advocate there, and between her and the two guys that were there I know that if it is possible to help us out in any way shape or form, they will do it.
What are the next steps for the aiport proposal?
One of the next steps is to define what it is we actually need, says St. Onge.
Every time in the past theyve looked at the airport, there have always been two proposals on the tablelengthen and pave the runway, or make a new one and pave it.
Right now we have to define which of those two is the method moving forward, then go out to engineers, get engineered drawings and then just start down the path of making it.
In terms of the CAPP grant, which is the Community Airport Partnership grant, that is at $700,000. We have all of the funds in place right now to maximize it.
We are going to look very good because one of the criteria they use is about community involvement, and ours would encompass 12 RMs and towns and villages. So I think well have an attractive looking proposal to help us maximize the grant. So things are progressing nicely.
We are calling the airport committee meeting for that first week in November, and then from there we want to be able to talk to engineers and put a proposal in place and make sure we have our CAPP grant filled out for the end of March of next year.
These would be the optionsdo you maximize the CAPP grant over four years and not have the runway for four more years or five years, or do you just roll up your sleeves, find as much local government, municipal money and corporate donations, and then two years of the CAPP grant, and just do it in two years.
If the idea is to get equal access to centralized health care services, then the two-year plan is the one that makes more sense. That is the one we are pushing for.
We either hope to hammer it out at that meeting, or have them go back to their own committees, then come back and determine what theyre prepared to put in.
We want to get the municipal commitments as quickly as possible, so we know our starting point, we know what our potential matching funds would be, and we can start talking to our potential corporate partners.
Why have the committee members been working so hard on this proposal?
There is the economic side of it and thats important to some, and there is the health side of it which is important to everyone, says St. Onge. In my case, my youngest daughter flies for Saskatchewan Air Ambulance and she expresses on her end that when calls come in from Moosomin, they know it is not one they can service. On her end she is very disappointed that there is an area in the province that they cant serve the way they would like to.

Natural gas will cost you a lot less and offer constant, available fuel, however you will have to have the heater installed professionally. The upcoming key matter to take into account when buying Outdoor Electric Heaters is the quantity of power necessary to offer the amount of outdoor heat required in any particular circumstance. It includes a superior R value insulation on the ground, walls and ceiling.

Engineers' House
Place: Peter and Paul Fortress
Construction time: 1748-1749
Architect: N.I. Muravyov (?)
Style: Petrine Baroque
Name Origin: The fortress engineers lived and worked here. Their function was to maintain and to improve the fortifications. Here was located the drawing workshop and various archives.
Interesting fact: This building is a rare example of preserved typical house of the first half of XVIII century. Peter the Great ordered to build residential and institutional buildings according to the certain models. Therefore, if you "clone" the Engineer's House in your mind, you can imagine how the Petrine St. Petersburg looked like. In our days, there is hardly anything left from that Petersburg.
Museum: it houses various temporary exhibitions, usually of little interest to a regular tourist.

Helen Rachel Slater is the actress who plays Kristin Mercer in The Lying Game.
She appeared in the title role in the 1984 film Supergirl. In the following years she starred in several very successful comedy-drama films such as Ruthless People, The Secret of My Success, and City Slickers. Since then she has found regular work as an actress in various film, television, and stage projects, including guest appearances on the series Smallville.
In the 2000s she recorded three albums, on which she sings her own compositions and plays the piano. Helen Slater was born in Bethpage, New York, the daughter of Alice Joan (née Citrin), a lawyer and nuclear disarmament peace activist based in New York City, and Gerald Slater, a television executive; the two divorced in 1974. She has a brother, David, who is a lawyer in New York City. Her family is Jewish. Slater attended Great Neck South High School and then transferred to the High School of Performing Arts, which she graduated from in 1982.
She made her acting debut in the ABC Afterschool Special Amy and the Angel, aired in 1982, alongside James Earl Jones, Meg Ryan, and Matthew Modine. This was also the only film she appeared in as a brunette. In 1984, she was cast as the title character, versus Faye Dunaway as Selena, in the film Supergirl, released in 1984. The film, directed by Jeannot Szwarc, received mixed reviews, and was not a box office success. In her next film, she was cast alongside Christian Slater and Yeardley Smith as Billie Jean Davy, a folk hero that styles herself as a modern day Joan of Arc, in the film The Legend of Billie Jean. Next she appeared in two high profile comedies, Ruthless People and The Secret of My Success. More high-profile roles followed when she appeared in the cult classic independent comedy Sticky Fingers with longtime friend Melanie Mayron and the steamy A House in the Hills with Michael Madsen. She has also voiced Talia in the highly acclaimed Batman: The Animated Series.
She became a spokeswoman for Preference by L'Oréal in both television and print ads. Since the late 1980s, she has worked in television and film. She made a brief guest appearance on "Seinfeld" as a love interest of Jerry Seinfeld, who in reality is a huge fan of the Superman universe. More recently, Slater was seen in a recurring role as Clark Kent's biological mother, Lara, on the Superman-themed TV series Smallville. She will reprise the role in the tenth season of the show.
In 2009, she guest starred in an episode of The CW horror series Supernatural. Slater co-founded the New York theater group, The Naked Angels, with Gina Gershon. Her stage credits include appearances in Grease, and Shakespeare and Friends. Off-Broadway, she starred in Responsible Parties and Almost Romance. She also attended classes at both N.Y.U. and U.C.L.A., to broaden her acting abilities.
Slater has stated that she pursued musical efforts even before doing movies. In the 1989 movie Happy Together, she sang a medley of Broadway songs as well other songs. In the 1994 movie Lassie, she also sang. For the soundtrack of the film Nowhere In Sight, she contributed the song The Detour.
In 2003, she released a CD, One of These Days, consisting of her original songs. Notably, the tracks were real-time recordings with Slater singing and playing piano, plus six other musicians total; no multitracking, editing, or dubbing were employed. In 2005, she released a second CD, Crossword, using the same recording approach as the first CD. Both albums were produced by Phil Swann. In 2008 Cortes Alexander recorded Slater's "Any Day Now" and "Love'll Come & Do Just That" on his album Swell. Her third album, "Shine", was released in late 2010.
Slater wrote a day in the life of Supergirl tale which appeared in the 50th issue of the Supergirl comic. She married award-winning editor Robert Watzke. Their daughter, Hannah Nika, was born August 28, 1995.

66 million years ago, at the end of the Cretaceous, the impact of an asteroid caused a massive extinction that ultimately caused the extinction of the dinosaurs along with 75% of the species on Earth. Now, a new study concludes that the recovery of life at the crash site was faster than previously thought.
The research, published in the Nature journal, was led by Christopher Lowery of the University of Texas (Austin, USA).
The impact of the asteroid, which fell into a shallow sea near Chicxulub, on the Mexican peninsula of Yucatan (Mexico), was so virulent that it left a crater 111 miles in diameter and significantly altered the entire geology of the Earth.
The power of the impact – equivalent to a billion atomic bombs – produced large earthquakes of magnitude greater than eleven on the Richter scale, giant waves (tsunamis) between 300 and 900 feet in height, temperature increases, fires at distances between 930 and 2,400 miles from the crater, and acid rain, among other catastrophes.
As a result, three out of four of the marine and continental species that lived in that period (the Phanerozoic) were extinguished, which led to a great change in the evolution of life on Earth.
So far it had been suggested that, after the catastrophe, the global marine ecosystem took about 300,000 years to recover in the areas near the impact site (the Gulf of Mexico and the North Atlantic), and that toxic metal pollution could have been the cause of the slow recovery in the crater zone.
This new study analyzed the rock samples obtained after the perforation of the Chicxulub crater, which conserve a record of the first 200,000 years after the impact. The examination of several tiny fossils – unicellular foraminifera with shell and nanoplankton – together with fossil traces of biological activity and abundant chemical elements, led to a surprising conclusion: life reappeared in Chicxulub just a few thousand years after the impact.
According to the authors of the work, the ecosystem of high marine productivity recovered in 30,000 years, a comparatively short geological time.
And although there was already evidence of this recovery in places like Spain, southern France, Italy or Tunisia, the study concludes that this recovery was also "immediate" in the area of impact, although the paleoenvironmental change was much more drastic.
The authors argue that ecological processes, such as interactions between organisms in the crater, probably controlled recovery.
"This recovery was even faster than in other areas farther from the impact and is the result of the important connection of the impact zone with open waters, which allows the rapid restoration of favorable conditions for the development of life," researcher Rodriguez-Tovar explains.
Thus, the study highlights the importance of ecological processes to understand how ocean ecosystems respond to similar events of rapid extinction.

Alfred Nobel, the Swedish Inventor, started the Nobel prize to recognize those people who reached the pinnacle of their fields. The Nobel Prize winners for 2016 are:
a) For Medicine or Physiology, Yoshinori Ohsumi showed the cellular process of cell eating or autophagy. He found out how yeast cells work and he revealed the autophagy which took place. Due to his discoveries in the 1990's, there was a better understanding of the recycling of the contents of the cells and to understanding diseases and mutations.
b) For Physics, David J Thouless, J Michael Kosterlitz as well as F. Duncan M Haldane were awarded the Nobel Prize for physics. This is for their work on the theoretical discoveries of the phases of matter. They used advanced mathematics and used it for examination of the weird states of matter like liquids which do not have viscosity or superfluids etc.
c) For Chemistry, Sir J Fraser Stoddart, Jean-Pierre Sauvage as well as Bernard L Feringa were awarded the prize due to the synthesis and design of the molecular machine which linked molecules into units which could work when there was energy added.
d) The Peace Prize was given to Juan Manuel Santos of Columbia. The President won it for his efforts to end the civil war which lasted more than half a century and which killed at least 220,000 Columbians and where at least 6 million people were displaced. In fact, he was able to negotiate a peace deal made with the government as well as the guerrillas.
e) For Literature the Nobel Prize was granted to Bob Dylan for creating poetic expressions in American song. In fact, he is the first of any musicians to be granted this award for this category. His songs were for the rights of workers, for those that were victimized or those living in poverty.

Great dress pant at a reasonable price!
These are marketed as a more casual pant, but I purchased them as a dress pant. They look great with a shirt and tie for the office. Having the different inseam options was great as I did not have to send them to the tailor. Too bad the 30" inseam was not available in stores, but it was very easy to purchase online, so no complaints.

Many of the Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) that we deal with live in a state of uncertainty about their final choice of retirement. They are torn between the emotional ties with family in India and a quality of life that they have got accustomed to living overseas. This is especially true as their children grow up and are far more familiar with the way things work in the overseas geography that they live in, than they are with India.
Many a time, an inability to gain citizenship in the country that they live in for example in the Middle Eastern geographies, or uncertainty around how citizenship rules are evolving, for example the US, parts of Europe and Asia, also leads to this inability to decide, even though there may be a desire to take this decision at the earliest.
This uncertainty often translates into a rather unstructured investment strategy or holding too much of liquidity resulting in sub-optimal returns, as this decision on final destination weighs on the minds of NRIs.
Over our years of dealing with NRIs, we do believe that having clarity on the final destination of retirement would make it much simpler to plan their investment strategy.
However, there is still a clear need to create a structure and well defined financial goals in the interim so that earnings are not spent away in lifestyle upgrades, or money decisions are not taken in a piecemeal manner or ad hoc manner which can be very damaging for long term financial health and corpus generation.
A good place to start is therefore to separate the goals that are relatively clear already for example education for children, support for parents, car changes, contingency funds, health care provisions, amongst others where one can define the amounts that one needs to allocate.
Similarly, planning the inflation and currency appreciation/depreciation rates to cover for these goals till milestone years, along with the geography that these will be used in will also be easier.
This scenario planning, basis end use of money in a particular geography, may be a far more effective strategy than a 100 percent India/international investment strategy or a 50 percent international, 50 percent India that most NRIs end up using due to this lack of clarity. For goals that are uncertain, for example, retirement—a 50:50 strategy of India and international assets may work till clarity emerges.
The flexibility of the investment strategy is the most important item to keep in mind whilst creating a structured investment strategy. This may mean that NRIs who are yet to decide on where they wish to retire to, should avoid using assets that either lock in their money or are illiquid or create payment commitments for long periods of time.
Therefore, certain kinds of asset classes like real estate may be inappropriate, due to the inability to liquidate real estate easily and in parts, along with their long cycles of elevated and subdued prices. Many NRIs prefer real estate due to the comfort of owning a physical asset, ability to put away large chunks of both current liquidity and future liquidity.
However, they do find that managing real estate remotely, inability to sell when money is needed and low rental yields in India do not make it a great investment choice in the light of uncertainty. Buying multiple pieces of real estate in different geographies or locations does not take away from the long gestation cycle, low liquidity and low rental yields and may therefore not be the solution.
Insurance products do have a significant savings component but are likely to allow liquidity at a steep price and have long-term commitments on premium payments that may or may not be possible due to professional uncertainties, thus may also need to be avoided. Protection against death or critical illness, which is the most important need, should be the sole focus of insurance planning.
Financial assets like bonds and equities, or mutual funds and ETFs that allow access to diversified portfolios, both in India and internationally, may therefore be a preferred choice to build wealth in the eye of uncertainty due to the flexibility that they offer, along with wealth protection and wealth creation opportunities. The mix between these assets need to be created keeping your defined goals in mind.
50:50 is therefore not your ideal investment strategy, at least for goals where you have clarity on the geography of ultimate usage of funds.

Deepika Padukone looks breathtakingly beautiful in the evening standard photo shoot
Deepika Padukone has yet again made headlines for being featured on the cover of London based magazine, Evening Standard. 'Divine Deepika' read the magazine cover page that featured the Padmavat actress in a classy white tie-up jumpsuit, complemented by a messy bun and subtle make-up.
In the interview with the magazine, Deepika touched on varied topics like the initial difficulties faced by her when she came into the field of acting, sexism in the entertainment business and her struggle with depression.
'There were lots of things I was advised to do. To get a boob job, do the beauty pageants. They felt it was the right way to be recognised or picked up by a Bollywood director or producer. It might be an easier way to achieve what you want to achieve. But I haven't been that person; I've always followed my gut', said Padukone recalling her early experiences in Bollywood.
Deepika also posted in a stylish brown leather trench coat for the magazine. Photographed by Buzz White Studio, she was styled by Nicky Yates and art director Dee Acharya.
'While I feel like, not just the conversation, but actions are moving in the right direction, we still have a bit to go before we truly understand the meaning of diversity', said the actress while addressing the issue of racial diversity in Hollywood.

Fasting and abstinence in the Catholic Church
The Catholic Church historically observes the disciplines of fasting and abstinence at various times each year. For Catholics, fasting is the reduction of one's intake of food, while abstinence refers to refraining from meat (or another type of food). The Catholic Church teaches that all people are obliged by God to perform some penance for their sins, and that these acts of penance are both personal and corporeal. Bodily fasting is meaningless unless it is joined with a spiritual fast from sin. St. Basil gives the following exhortation regarding fasting:
"Let us fast an acceptable and very pleasing fast to the Lord. True fast is the estrangement from evil, temperance of tongue, abstinence from anger, separation from desires, slander, falsehood and perjury. Privation of these is true fasting."

Canon law in force[edit]
Latin Church sui juris[edit]
Contemporary canonical legislation for Catholics of the Latin Church sui juris (who comprise most Catholics) is rooted in the 1966 Apostolic Constitution of Pope Paul VI, Paenitemini, and codified in the 1983 Code of Canon Law (in Canons 1249–1253). According to Paenitemini and the 1983 Code of Canon Law, on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, both abstinence and fasting are required of Catholics who are not exempted for various reasons. The law of fasting binds all Catholics who are aged between eighteen and sixty on these days.[1] All Fridays of the year, except when a Solemnity falls upon the Friday, are bound by the law of abstinence.
Both Paenitemini and the 1983 Code of Canon Law permitted the Episcopal Conferences to propose adjustments of the laws on fasting and abstinence for their home territories, and most have done so. For example, in some countries, the Bishops' Conferences have obtained from Rome the substitution of pious or charitable acts for abstinence from meat on all Fridays of the year except Good Friday. This includes Fridays of Lent. Others abstain from eating meat on Lenten Fridays, but not on Fridays outside of Lent. Still others voluntarily abstain from meat, though fasting may be less stringent on Holy Saturday than on Good Friday.[2]
The Personal Ordinariates for former Anglicans reconciled to the Catholic Church follow the discipline of the Latin Church (of which they are a part) including the norms established by the Council of Catholic Bishops in whose territories they are erected and of which their Ordinaries are members. Thus, for example, in England the norm is abstinence on all Fridays of the year.[3] The Bishop in the United States has emphasized the statements in the USCCB norms "Friday itself remains a special day of penitential observance throughout the year," and "we give first place to abstinence from flesh meat."[4] The Ember Days have been re-established in the Calendar of the Ordinariates, and as long as a Solemnity does not take precedence, the Ember Fridays in September and Advent are days of obligatory abstinence.[5] Obligatory abstinence on Ember Friday in Lent is included in the universal Lenten discipline, and abstinence on Ember Friday on Whitsuntide is not required, as all days of the Octave of Pentecost are Solemnities.
Autonomous Eastern Catholic Churches[edit]
Members of the autonomous Eastern Catholic Churches are obliged to follow the discipline of their own particular church. While some Eastern Catholics try to follow the stricter rules of their Orthodox counterparts, the actual canonical obligations of Eastern Catholics to fast and abstain are usually much more lenient than those of the Orthodox.[6]
Eastern Christians view fasting as one part of repentance and supporting a spiritual change of heart. Eastern Christians observe two major times of fasting, the "Great Fast" before Easter, and "Phillip's Fast" before the Nativity.
The fast period before Christmas is called "Philip's Fast" because it begins after the feast day of St. Philip. Specific practices vary, but on some days during the week meat, dairy products and (in some countries) oil are avoided, while on other days there is no restriction. During approximately the last week before the Nativity, typically meat, dairy, eggs and oil are avoided on all days, meals are moderate in quantity, and no food is taken between meals.[7]
Western practice[edit]
Rules relating to fasting pertain to the quantity of food allowed on days of fasting, while those regulating abstinence refer to the quality or type of food. The Christian tradition of fasts and abstinence developed from Old Testament practices, and were an integral part of the early church community. Louis Duchesne observed that Monday and Thursday were days of fasting among pious Jews.[8] Early Christians practiced regular weekly fasts on Wednesdays and Fridays (and Orthodox Christians continue to do so).[9]
There has always been a close connection between fasting and almsgiving; the money saved on food should be given to the poor.[9]
The habit of fasting before Easter developed gradually, and with considerable diversity of practice regarding duration. As late as the latter part of the second century there were differing opinions not only regarding the manner of the paschal fast, but also the proper time for keeping Easter. In 331, St. Athanasius enjoined upon his flock a period of forty days of fasting preliminary to, but not inclusive of, the stricter fast of Holy Week, and in 339, after having traveled to Rome and over the greater part of Europe, wrote in the strongest terms to urge this observance upon the people of Alexandria as one that was universally practiced, "to the end that while all the world is fasting, we who are in Egypt should not become a laughing-stock as the only people who do not fast but take our pleasure in those days".[10]
In the time of Gregory the Great (590–604), there were apparently at Rome six weeks of six days each, making thirty-six fast days in all, which St. Gregory, who is followed therein by many medieval writers, describes as the spiritual tithing of the year, thirty-six days being approximately the tenth part of three hundred and sixty-five. At a later date the wish to realize the exact number of forty days led to the practice of beginning Lent on Ash Wednesday.[10]
The ordinary rule on fasting days was to take but one meal a day and that only in the evening; white meat and, in the early centuries, wine were entirely forbidden.[10]
These days were at one time observed with a Black Fast of strictly no more than one meal, without meat, dairy, oil, or wine. This Lenten fast was traditionally broken at sunset.[11][12] In the 10th century, the custom of taking the only meal of the day at three o'clock was introduced. In the 14th century, the meal was allowed at mid-day, and soon the practice of an evening collation (snack) became common. A morning collation was introduced in the early 19th century.[13]
In the early 20th century, Church law prescribed fasting throughout Lent, with abstinence only on Friday and Saturday. Some countries received dispensations: Rome in 1918 allowed the bishops of Ireland to transfer the Saturday obligation to Wednesday;[citation needed] in the United States, abstinence was not required on Saturday. The other weekdays were simply days of "fasting without abstinence." A similar practice (common in the United States)[citation needed] was called "partial abstinence", which allowed meat only once during the day at the main meal. (There is nothing in current Catholic Canon Law which corresponds to "partial abstinence".) The countries of the former Spanish empire also had their own extensive dispensations from the rules of fasting and abstinence, based on the "Crusader privileges" of the Spanish dominions as codified in the Bull of the Crusade. In some European colonies, the obligation to fast and abstain differed by race, with natives often having more lenient rules than Europeans or mestizos.
While the rules of abstinence generally only allow seafood, there are a few exceptions. In parts of South America, especially in Venezuela, capybara meat is popular during Lent and Holy Week; in response to a question posed by French settlers in Quebec in the 17th century, beaver was classified as an exception;[14][15][16] and the Archbishop of New Orleans said that "alligator is considered in the fish family" in 2010.[17][18] The legal basis for the classification of beaver as fish probably rests with the Summa Theologica of Thomas Aquinas, which bases animal classification as much on habit as anatomy.[19]
Besides Lent, there were other penitential times customarily accompanied by fasting or abstinence. These included Advent, the Ember Days, the Rogation Days, Fridays throughout the year, and vigils of important feast days.[9]
Advent is considered a time of special self-examination, humility, and spiritual preparation in anticipation of the birth of Christ. Fridays and Saturdays in Advent were days of abstinence, and until early in the 20th century, the Fridays of Advent were also days of fasting.
The vigils observed included the Saturday before Pentecost, October 31 (the vigil of All Saints), December 24 (Christmas Eve), December 7 (the vigil of the Immaculate Conception) and August 14 (the vigil of the Assumption). These vigils all required fasting; some also required abstinence. If any of these fell on a Sunday, the vigil, but not the obligation of fasting, was moved to the Saturday before. (Some other liturgical days were also known as vigils but neither fasting nor abstinence was required, particularly the vigils of feasts of the Apostles and the Vigil of the Epiphany.) By 1959 in the United States, the fast for the vigil of Christmas was moved to December 23.
Ember days occurred four times a year. The Wednesday, Friday and Saturday of the ember week were days of fast and abstinence, though the Wednesday and Saturday were often only days of partial abstinence. In addition, Catholics were required to abstain from meat (but not fast) on all other Fridays, unless the Friday coincided with a holy day of obligation.
The former regulations on abstinence obliged Catholics starting as young as age seven, but there were many exceptions. Large classes of people were considered exempt from fasting and abstinence, not only the sick and those with physically demanding jobs, but also people traveling and students. The regulations were adapted to each nation, and so in most dioceses in America abstinence from meat was not required on the Friday after Thanksgiving, to accommodate any meat left over from that US national holiday.
On the eve of Vatican II, fasting and abstinence requirements in numerous Catholic countries were already greatly relaxed compared to the beginning of the 20th century, with fasting often reduced to just four days of the year (Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, the vigil of Christmas or the day before, and the vigil either of the Immaculate Conception or of the Assumption).
Contemporary application[edit]
Contemporary legislation is rooted in the 1966 Apostolic Constitution of Pope Paul VI, Paenitemini. He recommended that fasting be appropriate to the local economic situation, and that all Catholics voluntarily fast and abstain. He also allowed that fasting and abstinence might be substituted with prayer and works of charity, although the norms for doing so were to be set down by the Episcopal Conferences.
Current practice of fast and abstinence is regulated by Canons 1250–1253 of the 1983 code.[20] They specify that all Fridays throughout the year, and the time of Lent are penitential times throughout the entire Church. All adults (those who have attained the 'age of majority', which is 18 years in canon law) are bound by law to fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday until the beginning of their sixtieth year. All persons who have completed their fourteenth year are bound by the law of abstinence on all Fridays unless they are solemnities, and again on Ash Wednesday; but in practice this requirement has been greatly reduced by the Episcopal Conferences because under Canon 1253, it is these Conferences that have the authority to set down the local norms for fasting and abstinence in their territories. (However, the precept to both fast and abstain on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday is usually not dispensed from.)
Absent any specification of the nature of "fasting" in the current Canon Law, the traditional definition is obviously applicable here which is that on the days of mandatory fasting, Catholics may eat only one full meal during the day. Additionally, they may eat up to two small meals or snacks,[21] known as "collations". Church requirements on fasting only relate to solid food, not to drink, so Church law does not restrict the amount of water or other beverages – even alcoholic drinks – which may be consumed.
In some Western countries, Catholics have been encouraged to adopt non-dietary forms of abstinence during Lent. For example, in 2009 Monsignor Benito Cocchi, Archbishop of Modena, urged young Catholics to give up text messaging for Lent.[22]
Eucharistic Fast[edit]
In addition to the fasts mentioned above, Catholics must also observe the Eucharistic Fast, which in the Latin Church involves taking nothing but water or medicine into the body for 1 hour before receiving the Eucharist.[23] The earliest recorded regular practice was to eat at home before the Lord's Supper if one was hungry (I Corinthians 11:34). The next known ancient practice was to fast from midnight until Mass that day. As Masses after noon and in the evening became common in the West, this was soon modified to fasting for three hours. The 1983 Code of Canon Law reduced the Eucharistic Fast to the current one-hour requirement for the Latin Church.[23]
Particular law[edit]
The Australian Catholic Bishops' Conference decreed on Friday 4 October 1985 that Fridays throughout the year, including in Lent (other than Good Friday) are not obligatory days of abstinence from meat, provided an alternative form of penance is practised.[24] Although this remains the case to this day, support for the return of obligatory Friday abstinence has been gradually increasing since England and Wales returned to Friday abstinence in 2011, with some Australian bishops expressing interest.[25][26]
The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops decrees that the days of fast and abstinence in Canada are Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, and specifies that Fridays are days of abstinence. This includes all Fridays year round, not just Fridays of Lent. Catholics, however, can substitute special acts of charity or piety on these days.[27]
England and Wales[edit]
Current norms for England and Wales, issued by the Bishops' Conference in May 2011, re-introduced the expectation that all Catholics able to do so should abstain from meat on all Fridays of the year, effective Friday, September 16, 2011.[3]
On 25 November 2010 the Irish Bishops' Conference published the resource leaflet Friday Penance.[28] It followed from the March 2010 Pastoral Letter to the Catholics of Ireland from Pope Benedict XVI suggesting initiatives to support renewal in the Church in Ireland. He asked that Irish Catholics offer their Friday Penances "for an outpouring of God's mercy and the Holy Spirit's gifts of holiness and strength," and that fasting, prayer, reading of Scripture and works of mercy be offered in order to obtain healing and renewal for the Church in Ireland.
The leaflet states that Penance "arises from the Lord's call to conversion and repentance" and describes that it is an "essential part of all genuine Christian living":
- in memory of the passion and death of the Lord
- as a sharing in Christ's suffering
- as an expression of inner conversion
- as a form of reparation for sin
Friday Penance also explains why penance is important: "Declaring some days throughout the year as days of fast and abstinence (Ash Wednesday and Good Friday) is meant to intensify penances of the Christian. Lent is the traditional season for renewal and penance but Catholics also observe each Friday of the year as days of penance. The link between Friday and penance is extremely ancient and is even reflected in the Irish language word for Friday: An Aoine (The Fast)."[citation needed]
The leaflet suggests ways of fulfilling Friday penance such as abstaining from meat or alcohol, visiting the Blessed Sacrament or helping the poor, sick and lonely as well as other suggestions.
United States[edit]
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) produced a statement in 1966 called Pastoral Statement on Penance and Abstinence,[4] which was modified slightly in 1983.[1]
The U.S. rules may be summarized as follows:[29][4]
In the United States, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has declared that "the age of fasting is from the completion of the eighteenth year to the beginning of the sixtieth." In accordance with canon 1253 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law, the USCCB has also allowed[30] that some other form of penance for the traditional abstinence on all of the Fridays of the year, except for those Fridays in Lent, fulfills the obligation of penance.[30] Thus, the rules for fasting and abstinence in the United States are:
- Every person 14 years or older must abstain from meat (and items made with meat) on Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, and all the Fridays of Lent.
- Every person between the age of 18 and 59 (beginning of 60th year) must fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday.
According to the USCCB:
Abstinence laws consider that meat comes only from animals such as chickens, cows, sheep or pigs --- all of which live on land. Birds are also considered meat. Abstinence does not include meat juices and liquid foods made from meat. Thus, such foods as chicken broth, consomme, soups cooked or flavored with meat, meat gravies or sauces, as well as seasonings or condiments made from animal fat are technically not forbidden. However, moral theologians have traditionally taught that we should abstain from all animal-derived products (except foods such as gelatin, butter, cheese and eggs, which do not have any meat taste). Fish are a different category of animal. Salt and freshwater species of fish, amphibians, reptiles, (cold-blooded animals) and shellfish are permitted.[31]
Because of this, some Catholic parishes in the United States sponsor a fish fry during Lent.[32] In predominantly Catholic areas, restaurants may adjust their menus during Lent by adding seafood items to the menu in an attempt to appeal to Catholics.[33] However, the same USCCB website says that:
While fish, lobster and other shellfish are not considered meat and can be consumed on days of abstinence, indulging in the lavish buffet at your favorite seafood place sort of misses the point. Abstaining from meat and other indulgences during Lent is a penitential practice.
The USCCB also states that:
Those that are excused from fast and abstinence outside the age limits include the physically or mentally ill including individuals suffering from chronic illnesses such as diabetes. Also excluded are pregnant or nursing women. In all cases, common sense should prevail, and ill persons should not further jeopardize their health by fasting.
In 2010, Archbishop of New Orleans Gregory Michael Aymond clarified that alligator is also considered seafood, saying "Yes, the alligator's considered in the fish family, and I agree with you — God has created a magnificent creature that is important to the state of Louisiana, and it is considered seafood." This was in response to a letter from a local alligator wrangler.[34]
