The Himalaya orogenic belt produces frequent large earthquakes that affect population centers along a length of over 2500 km
. The 2015 Gorkha, Nepal earthquake (Mw 7.8) ruptured the Main Himalayan Thrust (MHT) and allows direct measurements of the behavior of the continental collision zone. We study the MHT using seismic waveforms recorded by local stations that completely cover the aftershock zone. The MHT exhibits clear lateral variation along geologic strike, with the Lesser Himalayan ramp having moderate dip on the MHT beneath the mainshock area and a flatter and deeper MHT beneath the eastern end of the aftershock zone. East of the aftershock zone, seismic wave speed increases at MHT depths, perhaps due to subduction of an Indian basement ridge. A similar magnitude wave speed change occurs at the western end of the aftershock zone. These gross morphological structures of the MHT controlled the rupture length of the Gorkha earthquake

Technical Feasibility and Comprehensive Sustainability Assessment of Sweet Sorghum for Bioethanol Production in China
Yang, X.
Li, M.
Liu, H.
Ren, L.
Xie, G.
Under dual pressures of energy and environmental security, sweet sorghum is becoming one of the most promising feedstocks for biofuel production
. In the present study, the technical feasibility of sweet sorghum production was assessed in eight agricultural regions in China using the Sweet Sorghum Production Technique Maturity Model. Three top typical agricultural zones were then selected for further sustainability assessment of sweet sorghum production: Northeast China (NEC), Huang-Huai-Hai Basin (HHHB) and Ganxin Region (GX). Assessment results demonstrated that NEC exhibited the best sustainable production of sweet sorghum, with a degree of technical maturity value of 0.8066, followed by HHHB and GX, with corresponding values of 0.7531 and 0.6594, respectively. Prospective economic profitability analysis indicated that bioethanol production from sweet sorghum was not feasible using current technologies in China. More efforts are needed to dramatically improve feedstock mechanization logistics while developing new bioethanol productive technology to reduce the total cost. This study provides insight and information to guide further technological development toward profitable industrialization and large-scale sweet sorghum bioethanol production. © 2018 by the authors

Zhang, J.
The national census data during 1995 and 2000 and during 2005 and 2010 are selected in this paper to make an analysis of the spatio-temporal characteristics of the inter-provincial population migration in China
. In addition, the general regression model, the extension regression model considering the historical dependent variable and the spatial lag model are established based on the gravity model to make the regression model on China's inter-provincial population migration over two periods of time. The results show that: (1) the inter-provincial population migration increases rapidly in size with strong geographical proximity; (2) China's inter-provincial population migration is still in the primary stage of the general process of population migration. In other words, the inter-provincial population emigration and immigration levels have increased greatly with the economic development; (3) Statistically, the inter-provincial population migration is negatively correlated with the level of economic development in the emigrant place and the migration distance and positively correlated with the level of economic development in the immigrant place and the population scale in the emigrant and immigrant places; and (4) The spatio-temporal factor is an important explanatory variable of population migration. The introduction of the historical dependent variable and the spatial lag factor can improve the regression effect of the gravity model greatly, and the historical variable and the spatial factor have strong explanatory power for the inter-provincial population migration

© 2018 by the authors
. The valuation of ecosystem services is critical to understand the current status of ecosystems and to develop an effective planning strategy for ecosystem protection. This study aims to analyse the spatio-temporal changes in ecosystem services driven by land use changes from 1984 to 2013 in Dalian, China. The land use changes are characterized using remote sensing data and then ecosystem service values (ESVs) are assessed using the equivalent factor method, i.e., assigning value coefficients to different land use categories. The total ESV of Dalian reduced significantly by 44.3% from 1984 to 2013, primarily due to the reduction of forests, water and wetlands. Water and climate regulations are the two largest service functions, contributing about 43.6% of the total ESV on average. In addition, ESVs show a spatial variation in different administrative regions, with the central city area having the maximum decreasing rate. Further, ESV changes and distributions are found to have a strong link with city development policies. This study provides an enhanced understanding of the implications of urban policies on ecosystem services, which is essential for sustaining the provision of ecosystem services and achieving sustainable development goals

Emissions inventories of black carbon (BC), which are traditionally constructed using a bottom-up approach based on activity data and emissions factors, are considered to contain a large level of uncertainty
. In this paper, an ensemble optimal interpolation (EnOI) data assimilation technique is used to investigate the possibility of optimally recovering the spatially resolved emissions bias of BC. An inverse modeling system for emissions is established for an atmospheric chemistry aerosol model and two key problems related to ensemble data assimilation in the top-down emissions estimation are discussed: (1) how to obtain reasonable ensembles of prior emissions and (2) establishing a scheme to localize the background-error matrix. An experiment involving 1-year-long simulation cycle with EnOI inversion of BC emissions is performed for 2008. The bias of the BC emissions intensity in China at each grid point is corrected by this inverse system. The inverse emission over China in January is 240.1?Gg, and annual emission is about 2539.3?Gg, which is about 1.8 times of bottom-up emission inventory. The results show that, even though only monthly mean BC measurements are employed to inverse the emissions, the accuracy of the daily model simulation improves. Using top-down emissions, the average root mean square error of simulated daily BC is decreased by nearly 30?%. These results are valuable and promising for a better understanding of aerosol emissions and distributions, as well as aerosol forecasting

Comparison of Two Large Earthquakes in China: The 2008 Sichuan Wenchuan Earthquake and the 2013 Sichuan Lushan Earthquake
Yang, J.
Chen, J.
Liu, H.
Zheng, J.
Over a period of 5 years, two large earthquakes struck Sichuan Wenchuan and Lushan successively
. The two main seismic zones are only 87 km apart along the same seismic belt on the Longmenshan fault. Although there was only one magnitude of difference between the two great quakes, losses from the 2013 Lushan Earthquake were much lower than that of 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake. This study compares these disasters in terms of preparation and response in order to develop effective ways to reduce casualty and economic loss in future earthquakes. By determining what was done right after the Wenchuan Earthquake, we can better understand how to reduce future losses. This study focuses on seven factors: basic information, preparedness, government response, local residents' responses, medical rescue teams' work, earthquake-induced secondary effects, and injury character. We also recommend that three major actions should be emphasized to facilitate the most effective course of disaster planning and action. First, sufficient preparedness and strict preventive measures form the foundation to minimize damage and reduce casualties. Once the disaster had occurred, a single, well-run headquarters increases efficiency in rescue efforts. Finally, local rescue strength of both professional staff and citizens is the most critical factor to lower disaster casualties

This research presents an evaluation of glacier recession and glacial-lake expansion in the Rongxer basin in the Mount Qomolangma National Reserve of central Himalaya
. Changes in glacier and glacial-lake surface areas in the Reserve between 1975, 1992 and 2005 have been estimated using remote sensing and GIS techniques that have integrated field data from 2009, 1:50,000 scale topographic maps, ASTER satellite data from 2009, and Landsat MSS/TM images in 1975, 1992 and 2005. By 2005, the glacier surface area had declined from 596.52 to 451.58 km2 with a total area loss of 144.94 km2, and glacial lakes had increased from 3.55 to 7.87 km2, an increase of 121.69 %. The volume of glaciers was reduced by 69.99 km3 from 1975 to 2005. The observed changes in the extent of glaciers are in line with the observed atmospheric warming in the Rongxer basin. Records from the Tingri station and Nyalam station have revealed warming during the ablation season since the 1970s at a rate of 0.03–0.04 °C a−1 in the northern and central Rongxer basin. At higher elevations in the study area, represented by the Tingri and Nyalam meteorological stations, the summer warming was accompanied by negative anomalies in annual precipitation since the 1970s, likely enhancing glacier retreat and glacial lake expansion

Global warming or the increase of the surface and atmospheric temperatures of the Earth, is increasingly discernible in the polar, sub-polar and major land glacial areas
. The Himalayan and Tibetan Plateau Glaciers, which are the largest glaciers outside of the Polar Regions, are showing a large-scale decrease of snow cover and an extensive glacial retreat. These glaciers such as Siachen and Gangotri are a major water resource for Asia as they feed major rivers such as the Indus, Ganga and Brahmaputra. Due to scarcity of ground measuring stations, the long-term observations of atmospheric temperatures acquired from the Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) since 1979–2008 is highly useful. The lower and middle tropospheric temperature trend based on 30 years of MSU data shows warming of the Northern Hemisphere's mid-latitude regions. The mean month-to-month warming (up to 0.048±0.026°K/year or 1.44°K over 30 years) of the mid troposphere (near surface over the high altitude Himalayas and Tibetan Plateau) is prominent and statistically significant at a 95% confidence interval. Though the mean annual warming trend over the Himalayas (0.016±0.005°K/year), and Tibetan Plateau (0.008±0.006°K/year) is positive, the month to month warming trend is higher (by 2–3 times, positive and significant) only over a period of six months (December to May). The factors responsible for the reversal of this trend from June to November are discussed here. The inequality in the magnitude of the warming trends of the troposphere between the western and eastern Himalayas and the IG (Indo-Gangetic) plains is attributed to the differences in increased aerosol loading (due to dust storms) over these regions. The monthly mean lower-tropospheric MSU-derived temperature trend over the IG plains (dust sink region; up to 0.032±0.027°K/year) and dust source regions (Sahara desert, Middle East, Arabian region, Afghanistan-Iran-Pakistan and Thar Desert regions; up to 0.068±0.033°K/year) also shows a similar pattern of month-to-month oscillation and six months of enhanced and a statistically significant warming trend. The enhanced warming trend during the winter and pre-monsoon months (December–May) may accelerate glacial melt. The unequal distribution of the warming trend over the year is discussed in this study and is partially attributed to a number of controlling factors such as sunlight duration, CO2 trends over the region (2003–2008), water vapor and aerosol distribution

The Protection of Special Rights of Female Three Gorges Area Emigrants and the Responsiveness of Public Policies
Liu, X. H.
Annotation :::: The paper focuses on administrative culture and problems faced by women, and considers the significance of protecting the rights of women migrants in the Three Gorges area as well as the responsiveness of public policies
. Using the methods of documental study and field research, the paper finds that women migrants are a particularly disadvantaged group among migrants in the Three Gorges area. Women's rights should be viewed as human rights, rather than privileges. The rights of women migrants need the support of public policies, and also broader attention in society given that they have lost some of their legal rights and benefits in the course of migration. Both government and society should consider the role of women migrants in the stabilization and development of the Three Gorges area, and initiate a positive public policy response to protect their rights so as to promote the economic development of the Three Gorges area and overall development of society. The paper is part of the Hubei Provincial Social Sciences Foundation project directed by Professor Liu Xiaohong, numbered 2005/008 and titled "The Survival and Development Situation and Protection of Rights and Interests of Women and Children Emigrants in the Three Gorges Region

Larch timberline and its development in north China
Hongyan Liu
Zhiyao Tang
Junhu Dai
Alpine vegetation and timberline development were investigated on 4 high mountains in North China: Mt
. Taibai (34°N, 108°E; 3767 m), Mt. Guandi (38°N, 111.5°E; 2831 m), Mt. Wutai (39°N, 113.6°E; 3058 m), and Mt. Xiaowutai (40°N, 115°E; 2882 m). The relationships between distribution of tree species and climatic factors on the uppermost parts of these mountains were established. As a result of the continental climate, their timberlines are composed of larch species, such as Larix chinensis on Mt. Taibai and Larix principis-rupprechtii on the other mountains. Two climatic indices, a warmth index (WI) and a humidity index (HI), were calculated for a differentiation of tree species near the timberline. A WI of 15°C mo has been commonly regarded as the limit for the timberline in East Asia. In addition, we suggest that the Larix timberline is formed when the HI is lower than 210. The understorey species of the forest patches inside the timberline and the L chinensis forest are similar on Mt. Taibai. These species are also distributed mostly in subalpine scrubs and meadows rather than in the Abies fargesii forest. This implies greater resistance to cold and drought in L chinensis than in A fargesii. Timberline movements were roughly reconstructed through analysis of sediments from the alpine zone of Mt. Taibai. A drier climate during 1830–1450 14C years BP resulted in a lower Abies timberline and was favorable for distribution of Larix, reflected by pollen diagrams and palaeolimnological evidence, such as grain size and total organic carbon. Percentages of Abies/Picea pollen recurred from 1450 to 680 14C years BP, implying an upward movement of Abies/Picea. Abies/Picea then moved downward, and the timberline was possibly replaced by Larix. In recent centuries, Picea/Abies has tended to move upward again

Self-Publishers' Declaration of Independence
Take control of your own destiny. We the people are creative, it's in our nature, we hold this truth to be self-evident, but what we lack is discipline. Find that discipline to take our own writing seriously. Once we do this, the rest is just detail. "I don't want to be involved in PR, I don't want to think about how to get my book into the hands of the reader, I'll only self-publish to get noticed by a real publisher." Stop it. Wipe your nose and dry the backs of your ears. Understand one thing: we are all real publishers. In the digital age, we all have the technology to write, distribute and promote our work ourselves. If our dream is to write, then write. If what we write isn't worth publishing, then we must learn the craft, and make it worth publishing. Only we ourselves can do that. Leaving our dreams in the hands of others is just laziness or cowardice. We cannot allow either to enslave us.
Do not confuse books with the publishing industry. Books matter. Books are a conversation between writer and reader about our civilisation; books record, mirror and in the best cases, challenge what we know. Books are sacred creations. Each represents a piece of knowledge that will outlast us when we are gone; it's our shot at immortality; not the superficial immortality of fame or notoriety, but that of discovering a universal human truth: this is what it is like to be alive; this is what we have learnt; this is what we bequeath to the future; this matters. The publishing industry? Who cares about that?
Ebooks are not just the future, they are the present. And this is our moment, right now. As long as the Big Five publishing houses still cling to their outdated business models of promoting paper products over ebooks, they are stuck with a byzantine system that is creaking under the unmet demands of the readers and writers. Meanwhile, ebooks are gaining ground. Now is the time to write, publish and define what's possible.
Ebooks are forever. A well-made paper book is a thing of beauty. But beauty is fleeting. Far from being something permanent, like all physical things, the paper book fades and dies over time. An ebook exists forever. It may be virtual, but it's very real and very permanent. And, by the way, paper mills are not things of beauty, or better for the environment, or use less energy than an ebook. But let's not sweat the details when there are principles to be affirmed…
Ebooks are democracy in action. There are no publishing gatekeepers or massive outlays of cash barring access to book creation. What determines success is up to "us" not "them". Publishing is too important a matter to be left to the experts. Writers are readers and readers are writers. As publishing has become accessible to all, the act of writing a book is not some rare act by a member of a tiny elite, but something that is within every literate person's ability. And more than that: it is our right to publish.
With the right to publish comes responsibility. Writing is a craft. Learn the craft because the reader deserves respect. A book, even an ebook, is not the same as writing a throwaway blog post. If the book is to maintain its importance to humanity, it must be more than a rant, more than a blatant attempt at self-promotion. A book, yes, even an ebook, requires that intangible something of lasting value. And there's no better way to finding that value than with a well-edited, well-designed and dare we say it, well-promoted book. But self-publishing does not mean you should do it all by yourself. It must be a communal effort to succeed.
The traditionalists will sneer, let them. Democratic publishing is revolutionary and the old guard will throw everything they have at ebooks and self-publishers as we grow in power. The attacks are along familiar ground that is getting shakier every day as it becomes clearer they are self-serving barbs from monopolists bitter that writer and reader have escaped their stranglehold: ebooks are not real books, they will whine (paper is real and digital is not?); the decline of the bookstore means the decline of books and reading (not so, we have never had as good a selection or read as much since the advent of the internet); and it's all the fault of Amazon! Attributing all the woes of the monopolists to Amazon is like blaming Ford for the end of the horse and trap. The old guard are still in the driving seat with their dominance of old media, but as people come to understand what we are capable of doing by ourselves with the tools we have right now, the appeal of the legacy publishers will decline to just one: that of the snob. They must adapt, or die. That is their problem.
Ours is to define the future.
Thanks for reading. I wrote this declaration in 2012, but still stand by every word. If you'd like to read something I wrote more recently, I recommend my humorous short story, "I am not foreigner" and the first Hana Walker mystery novel, Half Life.

Shivaji University's introduced its first ever Principal R K Kanbarkar Award, which was awarded to Prof. N R Rao. The award was given by the Vice-Chancellor Dr. Devanand Shinde. Mrs. Shalini Kanbarkar, wife of the Principal under whom this award is conferred, was also present at the event. As a recipient of this award, Prof. Rao was felicitated with a citation and a cheque of Rs 1.5 Lakh thousand.
Mr. Rao said, "I started working on research about 65 years ago at the age of 17. Since then, research has picked up manifold. I still get a minimum of 25 research papers published a year. Without any age limit, I was working in research, this is a great solution. Although my dissertation research has been published in various journals across countries, all of my research work is done in India. Staying in the country can be better, so that does not work well in the country, the youth should not think that advice Prof.Rao.
"In the forthcoming years, the challenge is to involve higher education providers for educating four million students. Water management is the need to achievement of Energy Management sector."

An Exploration, Seeking New Opportunities
What happens next. You are never too old or too lost, or too happy to reinvent yourself and seek a new opportunity. You've heard it before, Life is Too Short.
We need to be reminded that life's too short to spend every day doing work you hate. Life's too short to hold grudges against people we love. Life's too short not to see the wonders of the world. Life's too short to not live life to the fullest.
Are you ready for something new? A new job, hobby, experience, journey, friend, spiritual awakening….or more? Maybe you feel stuck. Or bored. Or frustrated. It's not that you don't like the life you live, it's just that you suspect there's something more. Some greater sense of meaning or excitement. New connections. New adventures. New possibilities.
Where do you start?
Challenge your ideas about how things should work. Sometimes when you decide how things should be you limit your ability to be effective in the world as it actually is. I'm too old to start something new, I don't have the time or the finances. I better stay right where I am! Open your mind and think of possibilities without limitations. What would you like to do? Where would you like to go? Who would you like to see?
Brainstorm ideas. Feverishly write down everything in your head and then some. Don't talk yourself out of putting them down, just write. Get them out where you can see them. Maybe they cause you to laugh...that's good. Like me wanting to be a barrel racer but being afraid of horses. What jumps out at you saying "pick me first!"?
Circle that one and then make some room. Now you will write all the steps it might take to make that happen. Don't worry about getting them in chronological order right now. It's just important to see them so that you understand there is a process. We can't snap our fingers or wiggle our noses (older reference) and make something appear. But we can take a step in the right direction and seek a new opportunity.
1 year - 365 opportunities. But be careful. Days turn into weeks and weeks turn into months and before you know it another year has passed you by and you are still in the same spot. Or not. Carpe Diem - Seize the day.
CHALLENGE: To seek something new - the sky is the limit so dream big. Make a plan and even if it takes you all year to get there, you are moving toward what you want. Baby steps become bigger steps as you see the horizon of a new opportunity.
I know YOU can do it!

There comes a time in ones life when they need to let go and for me, today is that day.
I've been harbouring a secret love for far too long and it has got to stop.
That love is for the Valentino Rockstuds. The heels, the pumps, the flats, I love them all but it just isn't meant to be.
I have resigned myself to the fact that the chances are that I'll never own them and I'm going to have to be ok with that. From now on, I am promising myself that I will not stalk them online anymore.
Haha lets bring things back into the real world. The fact is I love handbags and I spend a lot of money on them but I'm just not willing to part with the same amount of money for shoes at the moment because I believe that I can still use my handbags in 40 years time but I know that wont be the case with my shoes. If my budget changes in the future then my thoughts on that might change but at the moment, I just can't justify it. The same with the Chanel Espadrilles. As much as I love them, they're just a ridiculous amount of money for a pair of shoes.
I'd likely buy the flat Valentinos and I don't believe that they'd be particularly long lasting- for over £400 I'd want them to last for life through lots of wear! I was really put off spending a lot of money on shoes after I bought a couple of pairs of Steve Madden flats that ended up being such ridiculously poor quality and although my faith is slowly being restored in footwear after my recent Michael Kors purchases (more on this to follow!), I'm not quite there yet.
For those that do have the budget, or who just like to look at a bit of shoe porn, then here are my top picks from Valentino:
Until I grow a money tree, if anyone knows of any similar alternatives to the Valentinos (alternatives, NOT FAKES) then please link me up in the comments!

When Callaway starts tinkering with a piece of machinery, you know there's got to be a very good reason.
While the Callaway name is synonymous with ferociously fast Corvettes, the tuning firm has recently turned its attention to a pair of pickup trucks: the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and its mechanical twin, the 2014 GMC Sierra.
The major highlight here is the Eaton Roots-style TVS supercharger fitted to the 5.3-liter V-8 engine available in either truck. Callaway hasn't released performance specs or power figures, but once we have them we'll be sure to let you know.
Most Read
As it stands, the standard 5.3-liter produces 355-horsepower and 383 lb.-ft. of torque. We'd expect the Callaway variant will boost – pun intended – those figures by a considerable margin.
The previous generation full-size Chevy and GMC pickups, as tweaked by Callaway, already produced 450-hp and 450 lb.-ft. of torque.
A series of improvements to the trucks' brakes, suspension system, and cabin trim are also in development.
According to Callaway, working with GM's latest electronic engine management system helps to give the company a head-start when it comes to tuning the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray.
Look for Callaway's supercharged version of the latest 'Vette to break cover in the next couple of months.

On May 6, 2018, Scott C. Waring, a famous ufologist, found a weird alien face on Mars. It was 5 meters from Mars rover. He regrets that NASA ignores it.
He claims:
"I found this face in a Mars photo today. The face is laying down on the side of a hill facing upwards. Its has a beard similar to a human beard and it has a nose, eyes and long hair. What ever or who ever made this must have been intelligent. This is the kind of anomaly that NASA would never purposely reveal to the public. NASA could easily use my information and photo analysis to move the rover 5 meters to exam this face, however the public is not suppose to learn the truth from NASA. NASA was created 50 years ago to drop feed the public silly useless facts to satisfy the publics curiosity."

And that's what we did. The kids and I arrived at the lake around 11 and swimming was the first thing on our agenda. There was only one older couple there and so we had the place pretty much to ourselves.
After applying a liberal amount of sunblock, the gang started going in. The girls were hesitant at first, only getting their feet wet, while the boys dived in and got wet. Of course, the boys couldn't stand seeing the girls still dry, so they started splashing the girls until everyone was soaked :)
There was such a wonderful breeze off the lake--it was both refreshing and needed as it drove away all the pesky horseflies, mosquitoes, and gnats.
Once the kids had their fill of swimming, I had them towel off and head over to a picnic table by the playground so we could eat lunch. Then we spent about an hour playing on the very nice playground.
My Dear Students,
My prayer for you children, my very own first class, is that you will keep your hearts tender and grow up to love and serve God. I hope that when I see you again, you will be just as soft to the Lord and His Word as 15,16, and 17 year olds. I hope to one day see you again as mature, godly young men and women.
As I look back at these last two years, I see how each of you have grown and matured from the three and four year olds that you were. I know that there is much for you to learn; there is much more room for improvement and growth, and I know you will.
Peanut, as you go into kindergarten, I know you will do an excellent job. Not only because your teacher will do a great job {even though she says otherwise;}, but you have more than proved yourself able to catch on by your performance on graduation night. You have moved on from just being in the classroom and not excited to learn to biting at the bit. You are eager to learn to write cursive, you are beginning to love reading--even if it is just blends and one-vowel words :). You are inquisitive and I think you will do a marvelous job next year.
Bear, Superman, and Beans--first grade will be a challenge. There will be bumps in the road--learning the ways of a new teacher, different rules, and learning new material. Don't lose your determination, your desire to learn. Find joy in each day. Don't get discouraged; don't give up. Always do your best.
And remember all of you: I'm rooting for you that you'll succeed. I'm praying for you each day that God continues to watch over you and protect you. I am proud of you and what you have accomplished--and I love you with all my heart. I will miss you so very much, but know that God will watch over all of us.
Until we meet again,
Your Teacher~ Miss Tesfamariam

I waved appreciatively from my seat on the beach towel to assure him that I was indeed watching his impressive foray into the water (and, in fact, keeping quite a close eye on him. Bannok and I lived in Brightvale, and beyond the odd splash in one of the rocky creeks that skirted the forest, Bannok had never been swimming before. I was sure he knew not to go too far out, but – well. I worry too much.) It was a cool, shady day, and the beach was deserted. With his thick fur to keep him warm and the endless energy that small children possess, Bannok wasn't bothered by the chill, but I was happy to stay a bit more wrapped up with the towels and my book. Callum, Bannok's petpet, clearly agreed with me; he was curled by my side with every inch of himself as far from the sand as it was possible to be without levitating above it. I'm not sure the vacana was overly fond of the beach, truth be told.
"Did you see?" Bannok asked, running up towards me. "I went out so far – I bet you could barely see me, I was that far away!"
"I saw," I assured him. "Did you have fun?" I rummaged around the beach bag for another mat for Bannok to sit on.
"Lots! Are you getting the ice cream?"
I paused, and checked my watch. Half twelve... It was a bit early, but we could have lunch now. "I've packed you a sandwich for lunch," I said, laying out the mat.
"But Muuuum, we're at the beach!" Bannok protested.
I raised an eyebrow at him. "And?"
"And beaches are for eating ice cream, everyone knows that!" he said, giving me a look that I'm sure every parent is familiar with. It is equal parts the look of one being denied something entirely reasonable, and one pleading for something they know is really rather outrageous. It hovers just on the edge of put-on hurt with, on a good day, the slightest shine of tears just beginning to gather.
I sighed. Maybe someday they'd invent a faerie ability that rendered you immune to such things, but until then Bannok had me wrapped around his little finger, and he knew it. "Sandwich first, then there's an ice cream for pudding," I said.
"Yay!" The tears were gone in a second, and Bannok bit into his sandwich happily. Callum rolled his eyes, well used to his master's antics. "Hush you," I mumbled at him, unwrapping the tangella slices I'd packed for the petpet. "You'd understand if you ever had kids." Or foals. Whatever baby vacana are called. Callum snorted in disagreement, but took his fruit nonetheless.
There was an easy quiet, broken by various munching sounds as we continued our lunch. I found myself staring blankly out to sea, my mind wandering. As ever, my thoughts turned to Bannok; since his rather sudden arrival into my life, they had rarely had chance to leave him.
I had not planned to adopt a neopet, it kind of just happened. I had not really planned anything, just wandered into Neopia and opened an account without quite realising what I was getting myself into. It hadn't been easy, at first – I was terrified of doing wrong by Bannok, by that tiny ball of blue and white fur that was entirely dependent on me for everything. We had been frequent visitors of the Soup Faerie, without whose kindness and patient sympathy I would most likely have been unable to cope those first few weeks, living in the Neolodge and trying to work out which way was up and how to get around this crazy land.
Now, I considered myself a competent Neopian. There was a lot I still had to learn, and a lot still to see – although I was fairly familiar with the more mainland areas, this was our first visit to Mystery Island, and I'd never been to some of the more exotic places such as Moltara – or even Terror Mountain! But all in all, I was competent. I knew my way around Brightvale, I could put together a decent dinner out of the local cuisine (and had learnt the hard way to keep the windows closed when cooking with faerie food), and for the most part, Bannok and I were doing well.
"Mummy?" Bannok asked, breaking me out of my reverie. "Are you going to eat that, so we can have ice cream?" he said, gesturing at my half eaten, forgotten sandwich.
"Sorry Bannok, Mummy was just thinking," I apologised and resumed eating.
"'Bout what?"
"Well," I said, swallowing a bite of sandwich, "about how big the world is, and about how lucky I am to have such a brave Kyrii like you to live with me in it."
"Muuuum," Bannok said, wrinkling his nose. "You're being silly. And girly."
I laughed. "That's what Mums do, Bannok." At least, that's what I do – I can't speak for the rest of us. Some owners I'm convinced are superheroes in disguise; I have my hands full enough with Bannok and Callum, I can't imagine how people cope with four pets. Or even 20, if side accounts are included!
The rest of the day passed quite quickly; Bannok's ice cream melted all over him and required an emergency bath in the sea to rinse his fur out. He then roped me into building a sand castle with him, getting sand all over himself in the process and needing another dip to clean up afterwards. I carried him up the beach in a towel to try and keep his fur sand-free after that, and stood him up on the rocks to dry off. Despite my best efforts, his feet were still sandy when I came to put his shoes back on, so I put them in the beach bag on one shoulder and carried Bannok in the other arm. He babbled on excitedly for a bit about all the things he'd done and the fact that his sand castle would be there for eternity, but it wasn't long before he was yawning more than talking.
"Go to sleep, sweetie," I said gently.
"But Mum, I want to see the boat!" he protested sleepily.
"I'll wake you up when it comes," I promised, kissing him on the forehead.
"Kay," Bannok mumbled, eyelids already drooping. Within minutes he was fast asleep, his head on my shoulder and his hands balled into fists in my shirt. I resettled him slightly on my hip, smiling softly.
We walked along for a time in silence, Callum trotting contentedly along the rocks beside me. He seemed pleased to be going, and just as determined as ever to avoid the sand, often taking the long way around over the rocky outcrops that lined the beach rather than step down onto it. I knew better than to offer him a lift – the vacana was far too proud to put up with such an indignity.
We were nearly at the end of the beach when Callum stopped. He began sniffing curiously around a particular rock pool, stretching his neck out over the still water.
"Found something?" I asked quietly, mindful of the sleeping pet in my arms. Callum huffed, blowing his long fringe out of his eyes. I began walking back towards him, wondering if someone had dropped something in the pool.
"What is it then?" I said, kneeling down carefully to have a look. The rock pool water was dark but clear, and shallow enough that I could see the various stones and shells nestled in the sand at the bottom. There didn't seem to be anything strange there as far as I could tell. "Are you seeing things, Callum?" I asked. The vacana snorted derisively at me, and I grinned in return.
"Well, come on," I said, levering myself back to standing while taking care not to dislodge Bannok. "I'm not sure how often the boats run back to Neopia Central, but I'd hate to miss the last one." Callum huffed reluctantly, still staring into the lake, but obediently began following me.
I had barely taken a step away from the pool when the water exploded – that's the only word I can use to describe it. Callum skittered sideways, bleating in distress as water splashed in all directions, and I very nearly went over on the slippery rocks trying not to stand on him. Something small and red shot out of the water towards me and clung to my ankle, sharp claws digging into my skin until I thought they might draw blood.
"What –" I started in shock, but I was cut off as my new passenger began wailing, it's surprisingly loud voice rising almost to a shriek as I tried in vain to shake it off. Bannok jolted awake, eyes wide as he flattened his ears down against his head and flailed his arms in fright.
"Mummy, Mummy, what happened?" he yelped, squirming and twisting to try and find the source of the ear splitting noise.
"Bannok, careful!" I pleaded, struggling not to drop him. The small creature on my ankle had wrapped itself so firmly around me that I couldn't put my foot down without standing on it. I hopped backwards, praying to Fyora that Callum wasn't directly behind me and trying desperately to stay vertical. I didn't last long – as the rocks gave way to the beach, I tumbled over backwards and hit the sand hard, instinctively clutching Bannok to my chest to protect him against the fall.
To be continued...

For some sports fans, Boston's six game victory in the World Series over the St. Louis Cardinals, which ended on October 30, may seem like it just happened. For die-hard baseball fans, however, it may already feel like a lifetime ago. The 2014 season will not commence until late March (the first game will actually be played in Sydney, Australia between the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Los Angeles Dodgers on March 22, with the first North American regular season game on March 28) but spring training is about to start. With that in mind, it's important to take a look back and remind ourselves of what happened during this past off-season.
The Yankees were extraordinarily busy, as six of the ten signings on this list were either new acquisitions by the Yankees or losses of their key players to other organizations. Between those roster moves, the retirement of Mariano Rivera, the suspension of Alex Rodriguez for the entire 2014 season and the announcement that Derek Jeter will retire at the end of this season, the Yankees are a team undergoing a major transition, making them one of the biggest storylines for this season. A couple of smaller teams making big signings, including the biggest signing of free agency, also dominated headlines, leaving intriguing question marks about whether those signings will lead to correspondingly significant results. Whether you're a casual fan of the sport or love it above all other sports, and regardless of who you cheer for, this past off-season held enough drama to keep the world captivated and remind us that while baseball may only be played from March to October, being a baseball fan is a year-round activity.
10 Carlos Beltran, RF, New York Yankees: 3 years, $45,000,000
At 36 years old, the eight-time All Star and three-time Gold Glove winner may be closer to the end of his career than the beginning, but has shown little signs of slowing down. Last year with the St.Louis Cardinals, Beltran hit .296 with 24 home runs and 84 RBIs, and throughout his career he has remained a consistent threat to hit 25-35 home runs and 80-100 RBIs. The only major difference in his statistics has been in stolen bases, as he has only exceeded double digits in the category once since knee surgery in January of 2010. Beltran's post-season statistics are also impressive, including a league-leading 15 RBIs in last year's playoffs. The Yankees are hoping that any decline on Beltran's part will be gentle, and that he will be able to provide significant offense throughout his entire contract.
9 Ricky Nolasco, SP, Minnesota Twins: 4 years, $49,000,000
Any time a National League starting pitcher signs a big contract with an American League team, I get nervous. While it is not universally a rule by any stretch, several talented pitchers have struggled to make the adjustment. A.J. Burnett was never able to dominate in the American League as hoped by the Blue Jays or the Yankees, Jake Peavy took over two full seasons before he looked fully comfortable and R.A. Dickey took over two months to find his footing after signing a multi-year contract with Toronto last year. It is by no means a consistent rule, but Minnesota fans should expect Nolasco to require some time to adjust. Nolasco was able to put up some impressive numbers considering the quality of the Marlins teams he played for, and will hopefully be able to anchor the Twins' rotation and help them improve on last year's 66-96 record.
8 Matt Garza, SP, Milwaukee Brewers: 4 years, $50,000,000
As someone who has been traded three times in his career, Garza must have enjoyed the opportunity to finally choose his own team. The Brewers made him the most expensive free-agency signing in team history, and his seven consecutive seasons with an ERA under 4.00 would seem to indicate he may be worth the money. Garza's consistency has made him one of the most desirable players in recent years, and his five different pitches have impressed scouts throughout his career. Garza will undoubtedly be hoping he can stay in Milwaukee for the duration of his contract, which would make it his longest time with one team so far in his career.
7 Jhonny Peralta, SS/3B, St. Louis Cardinals (formerly Detroit Tigers): 4 years, $53,000,000
After serving a 50-game suspension in August and September of 2013 for his connection to the same Biogenesis clinic performance-enhancing drugs scandal that also resulted in suspensions for Alex Rodriguez and Ryan Braun, Peralta's signing may be controversial amongst some Cardinals fans. While his game did not rely on power in the same way as those two players, the questions of whether Peralta's play will experience a drop-off after his suspension and whether Peralta deserves such a reward after being caught cheating, are up for debate. Even if his offense slows somewhat, Peralta remains an upgrade from the offensive potential of Pete Kozma and David Freese, the Cardinals' shortstop and third baseman last year, and will play an important role in the team's quest to make the World Series for the third time in four years.
6 Curtis Granderson, OF, New York Mets: 4 years, $60,000,000
The 2000 Subway Series between the Yankees and Mets may have been over a decade ago, but there is no love lost between the two teams, which makes Curtis Granderson's move especially meaningful. Granderson had been a crucial part of the Yankees offense, regardless of struggling with injuries last year, finishing with over 40 home runs and over 100 RBIs in both 2011 and 2012. His 2007 season with Detroit was also particularly noteworthy, in large part because of his 23 triples, which not only led the league but also was the highest single season total since 1949. While Yankees fans will be sorry to lose him, the city of New York will be glad to keep him, as Granderson has long held a reputation as one of baseball's friendliest players and an exemplary contributor to his community. This can be demonstrated through his 2009 Marvin Miller Man of the Year Award. Mets fans will likely be more concerned with his on-field contributions, however, in the hopes he can help lead the team to their first above .500 record since 2008.
5 Brian McCann, C, New York Yankees: 5 years, $85,000,000
An exemplary power bat from the catching position, McCann is positioning himself to be one of the greatest offensive threats to play the position, alongside the likes of Yogi Berra, Carlton Fisk, Johnny Bench, Mike Piazza and Ivan Rodriguez. Playing for the Braves his entire career, McCann has hit over 20 home runs in six consecutive seasons, been named to the All-Star team seven times and won five Silver Slugger Awards. The Yankees had struggled to find a suitable replacement after Joe Girardi and Jorge Posada's many years at the position, but McCann presents a long-term solution. Not turning 30 until February 20th, McCann has the opportunity to pursue team success as well as many offensive records for catchers in the coming years with his new team.
4 Shin-Soo Choo, OF, Texas Rangers: 7 years, $130,000,000
Making his return to the American League after one season with the Cincinnati Reds, Choo will give Texas a blend of strong hitting, power and speed in their line-up. After losing several key members of the line-up that won them back-to-back AL pennants in 2010 and 2011, like Josh Hamilton, Michael Young, Mike Napoli and CJ Wilson, Choo represents a piece of a new core for the Rangers that also includes Prince Fielder, Yu Darvish and Alex Rios. While the Moneyball approach of division rivals Oakland A's has been popularized over the last several years, the Rangers are hoping a more traditional big-spending approach will be the way to returning to the top of their division.
3 Jacoby Ellsbury, CF, New York Yankees: 7 years, $153,000,000
Improving your team is always a benefit, but in a rivalry as intense as the Yankees and Red Sox, doing so by weakening your opponent is even more effective. Red Sox fans must be hurting after this signing, especially after Johnny Damon made the same switch from Boston to New York a few years ago, but their status as reigning World Series champions will likely soften the blow. Ellsbury brings not only that winning experience to the Yankees line-up, but an old-school sense of how to play the game. He has hit 10 home runs or more in a season only once (though his 32 home runs demonstrated a surprising capacity for power) and instead has built his game upon hitting and speed, with a career .297 average and three seasons of fifty or more stolen bases. The stolen bases in particular are remarkable in contemporary baseball, as his 52 steals in 2013 led the league, with only seven other players even reaching 40. While Rickey Henderson's base-stealing records are likely unassailable in this era of baseball, Ellsbury adds that rare dimension to the Yankees, improving their team while weakening their age-old rival.
2 Masahiro Tanaka, SP, New York Yankees: 7 years, $155,000,000
Tanaka was the first major Japanese import player signed under the new posting system, receiving several reported serious offers. In the past, the MLB team who paid the largest fee had the exclusive rights to sign the player, but under the new system, the fee is capped at $20 million, leaving the player to choose between the teams who presented a maximum bid. Unsurprisingly, however, the deep-pocketed Yankees were still able to come out on top by offering an enormous contract, well over double the six year, $60 million dollar contract given to Yu Darvish two years ago by the Texas Rangers. While there had been several high-profile Japanese pitchers who had struggled in the Major Leagues after a strong first season or two, including Hideki Irabu, Tomo Ohka and Daisuke Matsuzaka, Darvish's extraordinary talent has renewed Major League enthusiasm for top pitchers in Japanese baseball, allowing Tanaka to benefit. Expectations for Tanaka will be stratospheric, between the high-profile media spotlight in New York and the hopes of the team's fans, but only time will tell if he will dominate Major League hitters or slowly fade into obscurity.
1 Robinson Cano, 2B, Seattle Mariners: 10 years, $240,000,000
The Seattle Mariners didn't just sign a player who is arguably the best second baseman since Roberto Alomar to one of the biggest deals in baseball history. They sent a statement to the baseball world that they want to be taken seriously, and are intent on building a winning team. Seattle has had some of the greatest players of the last twenty-five years on their rosters, including Ken Griffey Jr., Alex Rodriguez, Randy Johnson and Ichiro Suzuki, and Cano belongs on that list. Jeff Kent has the current record for home runs in a career by a second baseman with 351, but Cano has the potential to smash it, with 204 in his career already. Cano has also hit over .300 in seven of his nine career seasons, with one of the other two seasons still standing at a remarkable .297. He has also drawn over 60 walks each of the last two years, hit at least 25 home runs five years in a row, driven in over 100 RBIs three of the last four years and won five Silver Slugger awards. He is also skilled defensively, winning the Gold Glove in both 2010 and 2012. Quite simply, the Mariners have added one of the most complete players in the game, and will benefit demonstratively through his presence. The signing will hopefully act to draw more fans to Seattle's home games and help the team draw more big names if they so choose, with Cano acting as an ambassador to the team with other players. The Yankees' loss is Seattle's gain, and both teams will be very interesting to watch this upcoming season to find out how their big moves play out over the 162 game schedule and beyond.

Fire risk and project delays can be detected if construction sites use internet of things (IoT) technology to monitor projects, Microsoft said at Gitex 2018, currently under way in Dubai. A machine learning artificial intelligence (AI) system that can analyse data collected from sensors on a construction site can deliver major benefits to the building sector in the Middle East.
Construction must adopt smart city technology to capture the benefits of AI, machine learning, predictive modelling, and advanced data analysis, Necip Ozyucel, cloud and enterprise group lead at Microsoft Gulf, told Construction Week.
"There are many new cases where technology can help construction companies because it touches on different change agents in the fourth industrial revolution, such as IoT and AI," he said.
"The main technology for construction is IoT. By using sensors, we can capture everything in the construction environment, which is [traditionally] very chaotic."
It would be possible to detect onsite problems if construction companies set up IoT-enabled sensors to monitor projects, Ozyucel claimed.
He added: "Based on this data, AI can kick in to create insights for a construction company, providing information on project completion times based on historical information. If we are able to feed a machine learning AI with enough data then it will become very possible to do this.
"If you think about the safety perspective too, which is top of the mind for the construction sector, objective cognition – which is part of AI – is a key technology. If you train the system to detect anomalies in the construction environment, then it can become very easy to detect problems, and create alarms with objective cognition.
"By using cameras, we can detect any object on the construction site. Fire or smoke, for example, would be very easy to detect. If you approach this from the safety perspective, IoT is very interesting for construction companies."
As well as detecting fire safety risks and monitoring the progress of a project, Ozyucel said IoT can also help construction companies manage costs in a more streamlined way, helping to free up cash for other projects or investment in innovation research.
Ozyucel declined to name construction companies in the UAE that are working with Microsoft to adopt IoT and AI, but did reveal that Dubai World Trade Centre and Dubai Mall were among the real estate companies it is working with.

The National Transportation Safety Board issued Tuesday its preliminary report for the investigation of a fatal
May 7, 2016, highway crash on US Highway 27A, near Williston, Florida.
The preliminary report does not contain any analysis of data and does not state
probable cause for the crash.
The preliminary report details the collision involving a 53-foot semitrailer in
combination with a 2014 Freightliner Cascadia truck tractor and a 2015 Tesla
Model S. The report states that according to system performance data downloaded
from the car, the indicated vehicle speed was 74 mph just prior to impact, and
the posted speed limit was 65 mph.
The car's system performance data also revealed the driver was using the
advanced driver assistance features Traffic-Aware Cruise Control and Autosteer
lane keeping assistance. The car was also equipped with automatic emergency
braking that is designed to automatically apply the brakes to reduce the
severity of or assist in avoiding frontal collisions.
A team of five NTSB investigators traveled to Williston to conduct the on-scene
phase of the investigation. The team used three-dimensional laser scanning
technology to document the crash location, the damaged trailer and the damaged
car. NTSB investigators continue to collect and analyze performance data from
the car's multiple electronic systems. This data along with other information
collected during the on-scene phase of the investigation will be used to
evaluate the crash events.
All aspects of the crash remain under investigation. While no timeline has been
established, final reports are generally published 12 months after the release
of a preliminary report.

This place was recommended to us by our travel agent so when Will showed up I honestly wasn't sure what we were in for. Will was great! Very good guide. We only had 1 other couple with us so we felt like we're had charted our own boat! We passed dolphins swimming near the boat on our way to the first stop. Swimming with the sting rays and sharks. So fun! Next stop, snorkeling at the coral gardens. Amazing! Will pointed out things that we would have never noticed and took our camera to get pictures of us as well. Swam with more sharks on our way to find the eagle rays. Crazy good! My wife and I kept saying this can't get any better and then we would be surprised as it did. Lunch was one of the best we had while we were there. Motu picnic with Via. She had drinks ready for us, demonstrated the cooking and served us. The tables were on the beach. The scenery was unbeatable. Restrooms and a shower. This is definitely something not to miss. Thanks again Will and Via!!

School Zone Safety Cameras
The City of Mesa, the Mesa Police Department and American Traffic Solutions, Inc. (ATS) joined together to improve the safety for students, faculty and community members in the Rhodes Jr. High School corridor on West Baseline Road, between Longmore and Pennington.
The fixed-site speed cameras at school zones were the first of its kind in the State of Arizona. Photo enforcement between Pennington and Longmore was the first mid-block speed camera system in Mesa.
School zone safety cameras will detect vehicle presence and related speed 24 hours per day. The school zone safety cameras are interfaced with the flashing yellow warning lights at the school zones to determine if the speed limit is reduced to 35 MPH during school hours. If a vehicle commits an alleged speeding violation, the school zone safety camera will take two photographs of the vehicle. A second camera will photography the front of the vehicle for driver identification purposes. The school zone safety camera will capture a 10 second video clip of the alleged violation.
Based upon a City Transportation study, the 85th percentile speed for vehicles was 46.6 MPH during the 35 MPH school zone speed limit, with the original school zone signage configuration in 2005. City Transportation installed a driver speed feedback board and yellow flashing lights during 2006 and 2007. A follow-up study was completed in September 2008, after the installation of the school zone safety cameras. The City Transportation study reported the 85th percentile speed for vehicles was 36.8 MPH in a 35 MPH school zone speed limit.
The 85th percentile speed was reduced by 9.8 MPH. A standard vehicle traveling 36 MPH may be able to stop approximately 62 feet sooner than the same vehicle traveling at 46 MPH. The 62-foot reduction is the equivalent to the length of approximately three and one-half 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe vehicles parked end to end. This example is a clear demonstration that reducing speeds in school zones enhances safety within the corridor.
The program was expanded to include the Franklin@Brimhall corridor on Southern Avenue; the Fremont Jr. High School corridor on Power Road; Mesa High School corridor on Southern Avenue; Skyline High School corridor on Crismon Road; Red Mountain High School on Brown Road, Porter Elementary School corridor on Lindsay Road and Rhodes Jr. High School corridor on Baseline.

In the not too distant past, I worked on a large corporate project w/ Bain & Co, so a SA post from Brad Thomas (Mr. REIT) caught my attention. Knowing Bain's basic methodology is not necessary to undertstand this article https://www.bain.com/insights/some-companies-arent-the-biggest-players-in-an-industry-wsj/
Segment profit pools and differentiation are the critical elements here from an investment analysis perspective. I will be using this in my portfolio 2.0 (or 2025 Portfolio) exercise targeting first on two segments: Global telecom (Canada and India) and IOT low-power connectivity solutions. These are both foundational elements in my 2025 Portfolio.
A subsequent post in October will build out the other elements in 2025 Portfolio, and how that construct will be used.
