This Is Where Luxury Property Prices May Rise and Fall the Most in 2023
Dubai tops Miami, Dublin and Lisbon in prime property price rise forecast.
(Bloomberg) -- The price of high-end Dubai properties is forecast to rise 13.5% next year, as booming interest from foreign buyers continues to turbocharge the market.
The sun-splashed business hub easily tops Knight Frank's ranking of prime residential price growth for 2023, with a forecast annual percentage change more than double that of the 5% gain predicted for prime Miami property, which took second place.
London and Seoul ranked joint-bottom of the 25-city ranking with prices in both conurbations expected to drop by 3%, according to the research.
The UAE city's relative affordability and welcome of Russian wealth is underpinning its surge. London, on the other hand, is expected to experience a slowdown, although central London prices — the preserve of the super-rich — are still expected to grow 3.5% next year, according to the report.
European cities such as Lisbon, Dublin, Madrid and Paris could see high-end home prices increase 4% next year, according to the report, despite the eurozone's likely recession. Los Angeles is likely to see similar growth, as overseas buyers seek more exposure to the US dollar, while New York real estate prices are expected to climb 2%.
Overall, prime property prices will rise by an average of 2% across 25 of the world's biggest cities, down from 5.2% in 2022, according to Knight Frank.
Kate Everett Allen, head of global residential research at Knight Frank.
Despite more subdued expected growth, London and New York are still the most popular cities to buy a house, according to Knight Frank's survey of high-net-worth individuals. About nine out of ten Chinese buyers said they're likely to buy a property in the coming year, compared to around half of British and American investors.

Scott had to scramble hard in order to retain the title that had appeared his for the taking for much of the four days at Royal Melbourne, with firstly Vijay Singh and then Matt Kuchar ensuring he would not run away to victory.
That scrambling included the US Masters champion having to overturn a two-shot deficit with four holes to play from world number eight Kuchar, with Scott making birdie at 15 before a bogey at the 16th and double bogey at the last from Kuchar derailed his hopes.
But having completed successive tournament victories for the first time in his career, after also prevailing last week at the Australia PGA Championship at Royal Pines, Scott said he never felt the title was slipping away from him even when he fell two behind Kuchar.
"It was a little shaky out there, I have to say today, but I felt okay," said a beaming Scott.
"I just felt like I was around the mark (and) I wasn't ever in too much trouble.
"I think even if I was one shot behind I knew there was going to be an opportunity down 15 and I just needed to hang in there.
"I managed to just hang in long enough."
Not one who thinks about the result, good or bad, until the closing hole of a tournament, Scott nonetheless knew that it was vital he gave himself a good look at a birdie at the par-five 15th, knowing the 16th and 18th holes in particular were playing tough.
"Things change so quickly so if you're out there early in the round thinking about winning or not winning I think you're doing yourself no favours whatsoever because you can't control what's going to happen for the next three hours at that point," he added.
"Going down 15 was a perfect example of that, I'd made the double and fallen behind at that point but I knew I had to birdie that hole to have a chance and managed to hit a few good shots.
"I knew if I hit good shots in I might have to make a putt but I was going to have an opportunity.
"I knew I could give myself opportunities for birdies coming in because I felt like even though I didn't hit all my shots great today, generally I'm swinging the club well and in those moments when you focus down and you're swinging well you hit good shots and I hit a lot of good shots coming in."
Scott also knew that he got away with one to a certain extent after doing just enough on the final day to capitalise on earlier rounds of 67, 66 and 66 as he eventually shot 71 to beat Kuchar by two shots.
"Sometimes you kind of win a little bit ugly and all the good stuff I'd done in the first three rounds counted for a lot," Scott said.
"Even though it wasn't the prettiest golf today, like I'd played the first three (rounds), there was enough good stuff to keep me in there and I hit good shots coming down the stretch when I had to and that again is important stuff.
"I take something out of every round I play and I think I can take some good and some bad out of today and learn from a couple of mistakes.
"It's a good experience, I made some errors playing with the lead or in contention and I got away with it today but I will have to learn and not do it next time

Archaeologist Julie Schablitsky knew her team was lucky.
It's one thing to uncover an archaeological site that's 300 years old. It's a completely different matter when that site has remained almost entirely preserved.
Researchers unearthed a slave quarters site at Newtowne Neck State Park, which was once the site of a Jesuit plantation in southern Maryland. The slave quarters may date back to the 1700s. The site may also have a connection to Georgetown University's history of slave trading.
"This is a very rare and exciting discovery because we don't have any similar types of sites," Schablitsky, the chief archaeologist for the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration told CNN. "There was so much potential for this to be erased but, by some sort of miracle, we still have evidence of their homes and lives after so many years."
Archaeologists from the highway administration, as well as researchers from St. Mary's College of Maryland, made the discovery earlier this month. The team first began digging at the site on October 19, according to the highway administration.
"The Jesuits were prolific in their record keeping, but very little survived on the enslaved African Americans who worked the fields and served the Catholic Church," Schablitsky said in a news release. "If there was ever a place in Maryland that holds the story of diverse cultures converging to find religious freedom in an environment of conflict, sacrifice and survival, it is here."
While the slave quarters were buried underground, the soil around it had not been eroded, which helped preserve the site, Schablitsky told CNN.
"It's complicated geology, but the land had not been plowed for a while," she said. "If the soil had been plowed, then it would have buried the site deeper and deeper. But the soil remained intact."
Researchers have already found a 1740 George II coin at the site. They plan to share any other discovered artifacts with the public.
What we already know about the enslaved people who lived here
Archaeologists weren't the only people at the site when they first began digging. They were joined by descendants of some the 314 enslaved people who were sold by Georgetown University in a major slave sale in 1838 (slave records only count 272 slaves because children were excluded from this tally).
The university had sold the slaves in order to cover some of its debts. The sale was incremental in supporting the school, which had an endowment of over $1.5 billion in 2015.
"It's very emotional, mentally and physically," Rev. Dante Eubanks, a pastor at the New Covenant Christian Worship Center, told CNN. "It's almost like you're overwhelmed with such a spiritual connection."
Eubanks, along with a priest from the St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church, led a prayer and a blessing on the site before archaeologists began digging.
When archaeologists first discovered the slave quarters, they invited members of the GU 272 Descendants Association to come to the site.
"These are their ancestors," Schablitsky told CNN. "It's important for them to be a part of this. They're going to come in with a perspective, where they'll be asking questions that we wouldn't even be thinking of."
Eubanks, who was there with a handful of other descendants, called the experience "an honor."
"It's very surreal and very moving to be able to walk the land where your potential ancestors worked, lived, endured and also survived," Eubanks said. "It gives a whole different perspective to everything."
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story gave the incorrect year when a major slave trade took place by Georgetown University. It was 1838. It also clarifies why the Rev. Eubanks was there; it was to bless the site before archaeologists began digging.

How to Relaunch Your Unity Android Application
Adrian Miasik
A couple weeks back I was implementing the latest Unity Analytics (Beta) service into Unity Pomodoro.
And something that was a bit odd, was that there was no simple way to toggle the service off during run-time. The only way around this, I found...was not to initialize the service on launch. As a result I was forced to re-launch/restart the application process entirely and prevent the service from being initialized in the first place when users wanted to turn off Unity analytics during run-time. (...which requires a restart)
Here is what that relaunch workaround looked like.
Luckily, it seems like as of Analytics - Version 4.0 we can now enable/disable the service at runtime:
Added ability to disable and re-enable the Analytics SDK
However, if you're looking for a way to close/kill the current Android process of the application and relaunch it without the need for any user input, here's the method to do that:
This will likely break in the future but its managed to serve my needs for Android 11 using Unity 2020.3
Best of luck!

Harvests from the sky continue to be a boon for the James-Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The successor to the Hubble Space Telescope has been 1.5 million kilometers from Earth since late January, the result of a collaboration between the US, European and Canadian space agencies. After the July 11 and 12 fireworks, the study of the atmospheric composition of a nebula (Carina), colliding galaxies (Stephen's Quintet), part of the sky galaxies, a planetary nebula (called the "astral ring") and an exoplanet, summer harvests will be good.

Each day, JWST's 6.5-meter mirror points to a variety of sources, such as the most distant galaxies or stars, galaxies, supernovae, exoplanets, planets of our solar system, comets or asteroids that formed in the first billion years of the universe.

PRS for Music has announced that award-winning singer-songwriter Laura Mvula has been appointed to the PRS Members' Council.
Bringing with her invaluable expertise as a songwriter and touring performing artist, Laura will step into her role on the council with immediate effect. Her illustrious career has spanned genres and forms, from leading acapella, jazz, neo-soul and gospel choirs to composing the music for the Royal Shakespeare Company's production of Antony & Cleopatra. Laura's critically acclaimed albums have received numerous accolades, including two MOBO awards and two Ivor Novello Awards. Her work has also been shortlisted for the Mercury Prize three times.
A graduate of the prestigious Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, Laura is also the recipient of an honorary doctorate from Birmingham City University for her services to music.
The role of the PRS Members' Council is to focus on ensuring that the views, concerns and needs of PRS members are heard and met. It also focuses on strategic oversight and reviewing company performance.
Laura Mvula says: 'Writing has always been part of my everyday life. Teaching, conducting, arranging, performing – each has taught me something about what it means to be a musician and songwriter. As a PRS Writer Council Member, it's my desire to ensure music creators are given the support they need to navigate the ever-changing landscape. I believe songwriters and composers should benefit from the structures and processes of which they are the foundation. I believe that representation truly matters. It can turn the tide in conversations and decision-making. As a writer, composer and recording artist but also, a black British woman with over 10 years in the industry, there are countless experiences to which I can uniquely speak, and I look forward to bringing that to the table.'
Laura's appointment follows songwriter and composer Hannah Peel's decision to stand down from the Members' Council, after she was elected at the May 2022 Annual General Meeting. Hannah's departure created a casual vacancy. The process to fill casual vacancies is at the discretion of the Member' Council, and the decision was made to invite all candidates who stood for election at the 2022 AGM to be considered for the role. Of those that chose to stand and based on the collegiate voting system, Writer Council Members voted in a blind ballot, and the result was then ratified by the entire Members' Council.
Casual vacancies to the Members' Council are appointed until the next AGM, when the role becomes vacant and is subject to a vote at the AGM.
Andrea Czapary Martin, CEO, PRS for Music, says: 'The PRS Members' Council gives a fundamental voice to our member community and is an active and vital part of our governance. We strive to ensure that the council is representative across our varied membership, and I'm thrilled to welcome Laura Mvula as she joins the council.'
Nigel Elderton, Chair, PRS Members' Council, says: 'I extend a very warm welcome to Laura Mvula as she joins the PRS Member Council. To have the benefit of her vast experience as a songwriter, composer and performer and as a woman navigating the music industry, I have no doubt that Laura will make a significant contribution to our deliberations.'

Risk Factors for Substance Misuse and Adolescents' Symptoms of Depression.
Siennick, Sonja E (author) Widdowson, Alex O (author) Woessner, Mathew K (author) Feinberg, Mark E (author) Spoth, Richard L (author)
journal article text
Depressive symptoms during adolescence are positively associated with peer-related beliefs, perceptions, and experiences that are known risk factors for substance misuse. These same risk factors are targeted by many universal substance misuse prevention programs. This study examined whether a multicomponent universal substance misuse intervention for middle schoolers reduced the associations between depressive symptoms, these risk factors, and substance misuse. The study used data from a place-randomized trial of the Promoting School-Community-University Partnerships to Enhance Resilience model for delivery of evidence-based substance misuse programs for middle schoolers. Three-level within-person regression models were applied to four waves of survey, and social network data from 636 adolescents followed from sixth through ninth grades. When adolescents in control school districts had more symptoms of depression, they believed more strongly that substance use had social benefits, perceived higher levels of substance misuse among their peers and friends, and had more friends who misused substances, although they were not more likely to use substances themselves. Many of the positive associations of depressive symptoms with peer-related risk factors were significantly weaker or not present among adolescents in intervention school districts. The Promoting School-Community-University Partnerships to Enhance Resilience interventions reduced the positive associations of adolescent symptoms of depression with peer-related risk factors for substance misuse.

Tightening your lug nuts in the perfect order is important to obtain them all limited and keep them. Look at GMC Sierra lug nuts at KSP Performance. Tightening up lug nuts might not seem like complex work, but a technician can also make the simplest job complicated. If you have simply installed brand-new brake pads, tighten up the wheel screws (also known as lugs) well before you lower the lorry back to the ground, yet always be certain to execute a proper lug tightening when the cars and truck are resting securely on the ground, all four wheels. To narrow your lug nuts without a torque wrench, you need to pay interest and state "zest" several times. Utilizing your standard lug wrench, hold the end with your right hand and your left hand to position the wrench over the lug nut.
What Order Should I Tighten My Lug Nuts?
Tightening your lug nuts or wheel screws in the ideal order is crucial to get them all limited and maintain them in this way. Tightening lug nuts may not appear to be complex work. However, as you recognize, a professional can complicate even the simplest job. In all seriousness, there's a reality to the unpopular side of tightening your lugs.
Patterns to Tighten Your Lug Nuts
The unpopular part is below. Because the edge of the wheel's placement face is the area of the wheel that meets the hub behind it, as you tighten a single lug, it gets tighter. This is what you're tightening against. If you get one edge (one lug) great and tight, you naturally most likely to the next one. If you simply walk around the wheel in a circle (clockwise or counter), the wheel can bend in such a way that leaves the very first lug you tightened up a little loose. Things can change below, also the tightest lug nut or screw. Because items are less likely to move and flex when tight in a cross pattern, your lugs will stay tight after you torque them.
Utilizing the above layout, tighten your lug nuts in the proper order that refers to the variety of lug bolts your wheel has. You ought to do the series when and afterward, do it once more to check and retighten.
Airborne or on the Ground?
Never tighten your lug nuts while your car is in the air, ideally with sturdy jack supports supporting it. When lowering the car back to the ground after installing new brake pads, tighten up the wheel screws or lugs. However, always tighten up the lugs properly when the car is sitting safely on the ground, on all four wheels. When the car is on the ground, you'll have a much firmer platform to perform your tightening, but it's much safer to apply pressure with a large wrench if jack stands support the vehicle.
I Don't Have a Torque Wrench
If you're an automobile or truck owner that does not do (and don't plan to do) any severe repair work on the lorry, you possibly do not have an actual torque wrench in the toolbox. We entirely get this. A great torque wrench is just one of your device box's larger investments, so few individuals will splurge on this tool to nerd out torque specifications when they do their seasonal lug nut check. It's not a bad suggestion, yet not an investment every person can or intends to make.
Without a torque wrench, you must listen and repeatedly say "oomph" to tighten your lug nuts. These instructions vary according to how strong and hefty you are. Go a little simpler if you're an ironworker who has no difficulty relocating sheets of hefty steel around the shop. If you're an accountant who grunts as you try to draw that vacant cartridge out of the printer, provide all of it you obtained. Using your regular lug wrench, grasp the end with your right hand, and use your left hand to position the wrench over the lug nut. Now lean down on your right-hand man and lower tough until the wrench does not move any further. Complying with the right tightening pattern, do this on every one of your wheel nuts or screws. Now do it once more! Bear in mind to examine them once again in 50 miles or so. If they're most likely to loosen up, they'll do it today, and you can stop that in its tracks. Must look at Dodge Ram lug nuts now.
Note: To tighten the nuts, you might be tempted to stand on your lug wrench, but this is not a good idea! Standing puts strain on the nuts and the wheel stud and increases the chance that the wrench will slip, knocking you off balance and tumbling to the ground.
You might likewise be worried regarding over-tightening. This is possible. However, mostly all of the instances I have seen of overtightened lug nuts have been the outcome of an air-powered impact wrench that was shown up to high, over the firm, as well as straining the wheel studs to the point that some will certainly break off when loosened up and tightened a few even more times. It's nearly hard to overtighten your arms to that degree because using them has advantages!

text: I have been using a far-infrared sauna "mat" for many years (and also marketing them) and have learned some interesting information about sauna differences. Regular Finnish type sauna's typically work at very high temperatures, up to 200 degrees. These devices have been used for many years for their health benefits and yes people do a massive amount of sweating while using them. At the same time people are in the excessive heat sauna they are heating their brain which does not seem beneficial to me. However compared to "far-infrared" saunas there are some differences: far-infrared works at much lower temperatures (about a high of 150 degrees), however….far-infrared is much more penetrating, up to 3" into the body and pulls out more contaminants and toxins than a finnish sauna, and use less electricity. Finnish sauna's are not very efficient. They heat the air about 80% and the body 20% whereas the far-infrared sauna's heat the body about 80% and the air 20%. If you are focusing on only high heat I think you are missing the benefits of non-finnish sauna's for health. The product I have marketed and used for over ten years is called the Amethyst Biomat. It comes in five sizes. is portable, gets up to 158 degrees in temperature and is a licensed class 2 medical device by the U.S. FDA. It is very user friendly and you can get a massage, acupuncture, reiki, chiropractic session while lying on it, take a nap, or yes even sleep on it. namaste, rachel

Ed and John B., (01) EG> And yet, there are occasional persons over 40 who can still > master the distinction and production of foreign sounds so > well as to pass as native speakers. (02) That kind of skill depends heavily on early learning of two or more languages, so that the person has a larger stock of phonemes and the ability to make finer distinctions among them. (03) JB> I'm a bit surprised that Everett had his own children in > the class but made no mention of having Pirahã children in it. Did > Everett not realize that he, himself, had learned to count as a child? (04) He did have some of the Pirahã children in the class. They learned the Portuguese words for the numbers from 1 to 10, but they didn't learn how to use them to count, and they didn't apply them consistently. In any case, Everett's courses were purely voluntary, and the children (or adults) would walk in or out as they pleased. (05) For a more informal discussion with more detail about the social conditions, see the article from the _New Yorker_: (06) http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2007/04/16/070416fa_fact_colapinto (07) EB> but the problem is that language and culture reinforce one > another. (Swahili, for example, makes many distinctions in kinds > of "walking", precisely because they distinguish characteristics of > movement that have impact on success in hunting and other activities > of that society.) (08) Yes. Everett emphasizes that the Pirahã culture and environment have had a strong influence on the language. So it's not clear which is the chicken and which is the egg. (09) But the issues are much deeper than learning a few extra words. The Pirahã learned some Portuguese number words, but they can't grasp the idea of counting. (But note that there are many Americans who can count, but who can't understand algebra. They think that x and y represent specific numbers, and they can't grasp the idea of a variable.) (010) EB> I don't think of myself as a Whorf-ian. I think the modern view is that > there is co-development of language and culture, and most societies now > find themselves regularly in contact with others, with the consequence > of continuing evolution of both language and culture. (011) Whorf would definitely agree. He did extensive field work with the Hopi, and showed how the Hopi language and culture were related. He also recommended some "cultural engineering": since the Hopi couldn't understand the Western view of time, he proposed a clever way of teaching them the notion of measured time: (012) 1. Set up a free bus that would make scheduled stops around the Hopi reservation. (013) 2. Post the schedule and a clock at each bus stop. (014) After a while, the Hopi got the message that learning how to tell time would be useful.

How do I Find a Permanent Visa Lawyer?
Non-citizens trying to enter the U.S. and establish themselves as a permanent resident will need to obtain a Permanent Visa or a Green Card to live in Northwood Ohio.
Green Cards and Permanent Visas are only authorized after the applicant has gone through much paperwork and documentation.
Our Lawyers Can Help You Obtain a Green Card or Visa in Northwood OH
Green Cards and Permanent Visas are one step in the process of obtaining citizenship for those not born in Northwood or the United States for that matter. If a non-citizen has an immediate relative who is a citizen of the United States, then this process becomes much faster. Even illegal aliens can occasionally qualify for legal residence if they have been in the country long enough and have immediate family members who are citizens.
Work with a Permanent Visa Lawyer in Northwood
Usually, permanent visas and green cards should be secured before entering Northwood, OH.
Once acquired, the documents occasionally need to be updated and renewed. While the applications for green cards and permanent visas can be completed without outside help, if you end up with concerns, it would be best to talk with a Northwood Green Card Lawyer who can help prevent delays in application processing.

I bought the harry potter box set on the sky store app on my now tv box about a year ago. I went to put it on the other day and they have disappeared aswell as a few other movies I bought (not rented) how fo I get my films back
10-03-2019 17:52
Hi @Anonymous User
Are these movie titles also missing from any other devices that you use while watching the Sky Store App with i.e. tablet, PC, smartphone etc ?
Or is it just your nowtv box that these movies are missing from the Sky Store Library on your Sky Store account ?
Maybe have a word with the Sky Store Help line where hopefully they can get to the bottom of it.
Link here if you wish to speak or contact Sky Store.

§ 17. Mr. Ian StewartTo ask the Secretary of State for Health what action he is taking to reduce waiting times for breast cancer treatment. [46617]
§ Ms JowellWe are committed to equal access to high quality health services. We have already made £10 million available for breast cancer services which is being used to support over 300 initiatives around the country. Particular emphasis has been given to supporting projects that give rapid access to diagnostic services through the provision of "one stop" clinics, speeding access to high quality treatment and care delivered by specialist teams.
The White Paper, "The New NHS" sets out a specific target for cancer that everyone with suspected cancer will be able to see a specialist within two weeks of their general practitioner deciding that they need to be seen urgently and requesting an appointment. This has been guaranteed for breast cancer by April 1999.

Stockton Town make their longest away trip of the season on Saturday as they head to North Lincolnshire for a crucial battle with playoff rivals Cleethorpes Town.
The Anchors head to Humberside in fourth place, three points behind The Owls, who sit third, with eight games remaining in the Northern Premier League East Division.
Last time out, Michael Dunwell's side were held to just their second ever goalless draw on home soil, and the first at the MAP Group UK Stadium, against title-chasing Liversedge.

Last Game: Liversedge 5-0 Cleethorpes Town
Stockton Town: D D L L W
Last Game: Stockton Town 0-0 Liversedge
Cleethorpes Town stand in third place, three points ahead of the Anchors, with eight games left to play.
In their last game, The Owls were thrashed by title challengers Liversedge 5-0 at Clayborn, a result which bunched the play-off pack further together.
Cleethorpes' tally of 63 league goals is bettered only by the runaway top two Marske United and Liversedge, and one more than Stockton's total.
The key men to watch out for are their two top scorers, Brody Robertson and Scott Vernon, with 14 and 13 goals respectively this campaign.
The Owls have added to their ranks in recent days, signing midfielder Fin Shrimpton on loan from League Two side Scunthorpe United for the rest of the season.
Speaking after the goalless draw with Liversedge last weekend, manager Michael Dunwell previewed the upcoming clash with playoff rivals Cleethorpes Town.
He said: "It's another huge game, but we want to be in these games. We don't want to be playing for mid-table or trying to stay in the league.
"Our aim was to finish in the playoffs and we are there or thereabouts reaching our targets, we just have to finish it off.
"We go into every game wanting to win."
Cleethorpes Town manager Dave Smith previewed the game for the club's social media channels, he said: "It's the business end of the season and all the games will be big, none bigger than Stockton at home this weekend.
"We've used the two-week break as a chance to work on fitness and shape to be ready for the run in. The boys look fit and hungry for the challenge."

Crude Oil
Oil prices fell on Thursday after data showed weak factory activity in China. However, Brent prices staged a smart recovery to end the day marginally positive. The expiring Brent December contract fell 38 cents to settle at $60.23 a barrel. The January contract settled at $59.62 a barrel. WTI crude futures fell 88 cents to settle at $54.18 a barrel..
Official data from China showed factory activity shrank for a sixth straight month in October while growth in the country's service sector was its slowest since February 2016.
U.S. crude faced extra pressure after flows out of the Cushing, Oklahoma storage hub were disrupted because of reduced flows on a pipeline. TC Energy Corp's 750 kbpd Marketlink crude pipeline from Cushing, Oklahoma, to Nederland, Texas, was operating at reduced rates. On Tuesday, it had shut down after a leak in North Dakota. Marketlink is connected to the 590 kbpd Keystone oil pipeline system, which transports Canadian crude from Alberta to refineries in the U.S. Midwest and the Cushing storage hub. The Keystone outage should dent supplies at Cushing, the delivery point for U.S. crude futures.
The trade war between China and the United States encountered a new obstacle when the summit at which they were supposed to meet was cancelled because of violent protests in Chile, the host nation.
A poll of 51 economists and analysts forecast Brent crude would average $64.16 a barrel in 2019 and $62.38 next year.
The US said on Thursday it had imposed sanctions on the Iranian construction sector and trade in four materials used in its military or nuclear programs, even as it waived sanctions to let foreign firms continue non-proliferation work in Iran.
Asia's naphtha crack rose for a third straight day on Thursday to a one-week high of $87.78 a tonne, supported by tight supplies. The strong fundamentals were reflected in spot premiums.
Taiwan's Formosa Petrochemical Corp bought 150 KT of naphtha for December arrival at Mailiao at premiums of about $22-$24 a tonne to its own price formula on a C&F basis. This was the highest premium the petrochemical maker and refiner had paid since February 2013.
The November crack is marginally higher at – $ 2.45 / bbl.
No fresh news on gasoline markets. Light distillate inventories in Singapore rose by 712 KB to 11.74 million barrels, data from Enterprise Singapore showed on Thursday. These are the highest levels since the middle of July this year.
The November crack is marginally lower at $ 6.85 /bbl

Cash premiums for 10ppm gasoil dropped 2 cents to 96 cents a barrel to Singapore quotes on Thursday.
Middle distillate inventories in Singapore rose to a three-week high of 11.21 million barrels, data from Enterprise Singapore showed on Thursday.
Cash premiums for jet fuel fell to a premium of 8 cents a barrel to Singapore quotes, compared with a premium of 11 cents per barrel a day earlier.
The November crack for 500 ppm Gasoil is lower at $ 15.00 /bbl with the 10 ppm crack at $ 16.00 / bbl. The regrade is at $ 0.50 /bbl

Fuel Oil
Asia's 380-cst high-sulphur fuel oil. The 380-cst Nov-Dec time spread was at $34.75 a tonne on Thursday, up from $31 in the previous session.
Residual fuel oil inventories in Singapore climbed to a two-week high of 21.85 million barrels in the week to Oct. 30, boosted by higher net imports.
The November 180 cst crack is higher at -$ 13.75 / bbl with the visco spread at $ 1.05 /bbl.

Returning to school
Dear parents and carers,
We are proud to inform you that over the past few weeks we have safely managed to welcome back 35% of our school population following government guidelines. That's above the National average of 11% and the Devon average of 23%.
However, we are now at a point where we are reaching capacity within classes under the government guidance and while we would like to welcome back more children, we must only do so where it is safe. Therefore, if your child is in one of the eligible groups and you are planning for your child to return to school, you must please inform us with at least 24 hours' notice.
Without prior notification, we will not be able to accept any child on the day.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Mr Williams (Deputy Head of School)

This is a 18k yellow gold classic Crownwork® cigar band with pave diamond edges. All of the gold we use is certified eco-responsible, recycled metal. Unlike mining, where approximately 20 tons of waste is generated to produce just one ounce of gold, refining precious metals has virtually no waste and is much better for the earth. This is my take on a classic cigar band, domed and tapered to the base with my crownwork to open up and half a ct of diamonds paved around the edges for some added personality.

Chances are you have dry skin which can be easily remedied You just need moisturizer. Most noticeably affecting African Americans dry or "ashy" skin can result from cold weather, dry heat and low humidity. Taking too-hot showers and baths makes dry skin worse. To repair your dry skin try lowering the temperature of your bath water, using less or gentler soaps, and applying moisturizer immediately after bathing. For dry hands or feet, apply Vaseline before bedtime under warm socks. In especially dry areas, try using a humidifier at night.
Good creams and moisturizers for dry skin are Eucerin, Lubriderm, and Cetaphyl. Do not use Ivory and other harsh soaps; do not let dandruff shampoo get on your body. Rinse all soaps well.
My skin is very itchy. Could I have eczema?
If you have raised, itchy patches on your skin, you may have eczema. You need to confirm your condition with a doctor for medical treatment. Eczema is common in people with allergies. Spending more time in the sun (while preventing sunburn) and using vitamin e oil, can provide relief from mild eczema.
Children are known to have atopic dermatitis, which is a common form of eczema. They usually outgrow it.
I have scales on my elbows, knees and other parts of my body. Is this a worse condition than dry skin?
Scales on the skin otherwise known as plaques are a sign of psoriasis. Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease resulting from an overactive immune system. This condition can be disfiguring, and painful. It can result in arthritis debilitating arthritis as well. Most people have a mild form of the disease, which can be uncomfortable and embarrassing.
Psoriasis on the scalp can cause hair loss. It is often discovered after hair loss and confused for cradle cap or hair loss to due chemicals. African Americans with Psoriasis should consider wearing their hair in is natural, unprocessed state.
Currently, doctors can prescribe medications for symptom relief. Sun therapy is also useful. There are many drug trials underway to treat psoriasis, eczema, and other skin conditions.

On the side of the Mentzel exhibit, the curator had the great idea to present young talents. Joris van Gennip is one of them. He works for the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant and covered the Black Lives Matter demonstration in Paris in June 2020. Gripping contrast between this female demonstrator on the ground, hands tied in the back, and the boots of the law enforcement personnel. Graphic views against the blue skies above Paris, and phantasmagorical shadows… a photographer to follow. The future of photojournalism is not dead!

ABSTRACTThis project work title assessed "The Scope of Internal Audit Function: Contemporary Issues and Challenges in Federal Road Maintenance Agency (FERMA)" For the purpose of this research work, a survey research was employed by the researcher. The researcher also used random sampling for its sampling techniques. Data collected were presented in a tabular form and analyzed using simple percentage. Two hypotheses formulated were tested using chi-square statistical tool. The study revealed that the Internal Control System or Measure are not enough to prevent of detect errors or omission. Major recommendations of the research study suggested that a frequent review of the system of Internal Control System be adopted so that lapses detected in the system can be corrected or ameliorated.
1.0 INTRODUCTION1.1 Background of the Study Produce financial management is a desire of every government. For this to be achieved, some internal control measures need to be put in place. Robertson (1979:189) defines internal accounting control: "the means by which errors in accounting data are detect and corrected" From the above definition, internal control could be said to comprise of the plant of an organization and all the co-ordinate methods and measures adopted within a business to safeguard assets, check the accuracy and reliability of its accounting data, promote operational efficiency and encourages adherence to prescribed managerial policies. Adeniyi (2004:165) defines internal control system of control financial and otherwise established by the management company in an orderly and efficient manner, safeguard assets reliability of records. This definition recognize that a "system of internal control extend beyond the matter which relate directly to the function of the accounting and financial department". An important aspect of the definition worthy emphasis is financial management. Obamuyi (1998) defines financial management as that managerial activity which is concerned with the planning and controlling of the firm's financial resources. Financial management as that of total management which is concerned primarily with financial transaction of action, both past and proposed into meaningful and relevant information, for use in the management process. Account journal (195:3). From the foregoing we can equally say that financial management includes the following planning, programming, budgeting, and budget execution. The audit unit carries out measure in evaluation of activities and account of the establishment so as to provide information about the effectiveness and efficiency of operation of programme and projects. In federal roads maintenance agency, two types of auditing activities are carried on, these are pre – payment and post – payment auditing. Internal auditing viewed the accounting and operating system of the financial reports to ensure their accuracy and adequacy.
1.2 Statement of the Problems
To ensure sound financial management, internal control measure should be introduced. These control measures comprises the plan of organization and all of the coordinating method and measures adopted within a business (public or private) to safeguard its accounting data, promote operational efficiency and encourage adherence to prescribed management policies.The civil service reforms of 1988 in many aspects was carried at professionalism and to ensure efficient and smooth operation of government activities, the question then is to what extend has the various internal control measures assist in safeguarding government assets, check the accuracy and adherence to managerial policies in federal roads maintenance agency Abuja; Research into these question will bring into sharp focus the strength and weakness of the Auditing unit of the Agency.
1.3 Purpose of the Study The purpose of the study is to critically review the scope of internal audit function, its contemporary issues and challenges inhibiting the efficiency of internal auditing in the public sectors and suggested ways of removing these challenges.The specific objectives are:i. To evaluate the effectiveness of internal audit unit in the federal roads maintenance agency.ii. To determine the problems facing the internal auditor unit in the public sector of the federal road maintenance agency.iii. To examine the relationship between internal and external audit in the public establishment.
1.4 Statement of HypothesisThe designed hypothesis comprises of both null and alternative hypothesis. When an ideal is brought out and is still under investigation it's either to be true or false leading to the acceptance or rejection it is called hypothesis. This does not become a reality until a research is carried out, trusted and continued to be true.The researchers therefore, had the following tentative statement based on the project.Ho: Most of the internal control measures do not significantly meet the overall control objectives.Hi: Most of the internal control measures significantly meet the overall control objectives.Ho: The current internal control system in use is not adequate to federal road maintenance Agency.Hi: The current internal control structure in use is adequate to federal roads maintenance Agency.Hi: The controls are enough to prevent or detect particular errors or omission?Ho: Controls are not enough to prevent or detect particular error or omission.
1.5 Scope of the StudyThe study aimed at examining the scope of internal audit function (contemporary issues and challenges) in the public sector and its effect on economic development and how effective audit could be carried out in federal roads maintenance agency. The range of study covers the period between the years 2009 – 2014, 5 years, for examining the scope of internal audit functions, in which the federal road maintenance agency has reported exclusively on the scope of internal audit, contemporary issues and challenges.
1.6 Significance of the Study
The result of the study will be used not only for the purpose of enlarging the researcher's knowledge but also for the purpose of arriving at recommendations for efficient and effective management control of the project of federal road maintenance agency. The study is important to the following:i. The study executive and legislative organs of government especially with their quest to stamp out corruption in the public services.ii. It is significant to federal roads maintenance agency in particular as it would provide direction for proper and effective control in the uses of its scares resources.iii. For the public and future researchers in the federal road maintenance agency.
1.7 Definition of TermsAudit: the independent examination of evidence and the expression of opinion on the financial statement of an enterprise by an appointed auditor.Errors: unintentional mistake in financial statement whether of a mathematics or chemical nature, whether it to oversight of relevant facts.Management Audit: A complete audit is best described as one in which the auditor is given or is entailed to unrestricted scope as to work which he is to perform and in which used his own description as to the extent of the detailed workPartial Audit: A partial audit is an audit in which the auditor is instructed to carry out a partial work only; or is restricted in any as to his power of injury or examination such limitation is always arranged with the audit work.Public sector Audit: Public sector can be grouped into financial and performance audit (value – for – money – audited).

Storing AI packages |
AI packages can be stored on the Symantec Ghost Console server, at an HTTP location, on a network share, or locally on each client computer.
Local deployment of Console resources
Packages located on a non-UNC (Universal Naming Convention) path are transferred and installed from the client. Packages located on a UNC path are accessed over the network. However, should this fail, these packages are transferred to the client.
The client uses HTTP protocols to access the packages stored at HTTP locations.
If packages are stored on Windows NT and Windows 2000 network shares, other computers cannot access the packages. To enable access, edit the registry on the computer on which the share exists, adding the name of the share to the following registry location:
Client computers can then access this share.
Warning: This workaround creates an open share, which does not require a username or password to connect. This is a potential security threat.

Work, Energy Power
Scalar Product
There are two ways of multiplying vectors. One way is called the scalar product, while another is called the vector product.
Let us take any two vectors A and B. Their scalar product (or dot product) is denoted as A.B (A dot B).
A.B = A B cos θ ………….(1)
In this case, since A, B and cos θ are scalars so the dot product is a scalar quantity.
Above equation can also be written as follows:
A.B = A(B cos θ)
= B(A cos θ)
This figure shows two vectors A and B at angle θ to each other. In the second figure, the blue line shows the projection of B onto A. The blue line (in the third figure) shows the projection of A onto B. So, A.B is the product of magnitude of A and the component of B along A. Similarly, it is also the product of the magnitude of B and the component of A along B.
The scalar product follows the commutative law
The scalar product obeys the distributive law.
Moreover, A.(λB)= λ(A.B)
Where, λ is a real number.
For unit vectors, î, ĵ, k̂ we have
î.ĵ = ĵ.ĵ = k̂.k̂ = 1
î.ĵ = ĵ.k̂ = k̂.î = 0
If there are two vectors as follows:
Then the scalar product is as follows:
So, we can also write
Or, `A^2=A_x^2+A_y^2+A_z^2`
If A and B are perpendicular then θ = 0°. As cos 90° = 0
So, in this case: A.B = 0
Work-Energy Theorem
Let us recall the following equation of motion:
`v^2-u^2=2as` ………………(2)
Here, u is initial speed, v is final speed, a is acceleration and s is distance.
Multiplying both sides by `m/2`, we get
Since `m×=F` so above equation can be written as follows:
By employing vectors, equation (2) can be generalized as follows
Here, a and d are acceleration and displacement vectors
Multiplying both sides by `m/2`we get
`1/2mv^2-1/mu^2=m\a.d=F.d` ……………(3)
We know
`1/2mv^2=K` (Kinetic energy)
`F.d=W` (Work)
So, equation (3) can be written as follows:
`K_f-K_i=W` ……………(4)
Here, Ki is initial kinetic energy, and Kf is final kinetic energy. In the context of this equation, work can be defined as follows:
"The change in kinetic energy of a particle is equal to the work done on it by the net force."
Let us take an object which undergoes displacement d in the positive x-direction when a constant force F is acting on it. In this case, the product of component of force (in the direction of displacement) and the magnitude of displacement is called work done.
W = (F cos θ)d = F.d
No work is done if
- Displacement = 0
- Force = 0
- Force and displacement are in mutually perpendicular direction. (Because cos 90° = 0)
- If θ between 0° and 90° -- Work done is positive
- If θ between 90° and 180° -- Work done is negative
Work and energy have the same dimensions [ML2T-2]. SI units of work and energy are joule (J).
Work Done by Variable Force
In real life, we rarely encounter constant force. Variable force is the norm in common situations.
If displacement Δx is small, the force F(x) can be taken as constant. In this case, work done is as follows:
ΔW = F(x) Δx
This graph shows variable force Vs displacement. Successive rectangles (in graph) give work done at particular instant of displacement. Total work is equal to the sum of areas of successive rectangles. This can be given by following equation.
W ∼ Σ F(x) Δx
Work-Energy Theorem for Variable Force
The time rate change of kinetic energy is
Or, `(dK)/(dt)=Fv`
Or, `(dK)/(dt)=F(dx)/(dt)`
So, `dK=Fd\x`
On integration,
We have earlier seen that Kf - Ki = W
So, WE (Work-Energy) theorem is proved for variable force.
Potential Energy
Let us assume a ball with mass m is raised to a height h. Work done by the external agency against gravitational force is
`W = mgh`
The work done gets stored as potential energy. Gravitational potential energy is denoted by V(h); as a function of height h. It is the negative work done by gravitational force in raising the object to that height.
The gravitational force F is equal to the negative of the derivative of V(h) with respect to h. Thus,
The negative sign shows the downward direction of gravitational force. When the ball is released, it come s down with increasing speed. The speed of ball (just before hitting the ground) is given by following equation.
This equation can be written as
This means that the gravitational potential energy of the object at height h, manifests as kinetic energy on reaching the ground.
The work done by a conservative force (such as gravity) depends on initial and final positions only. If the work done or kinetic energy did depend on other factors (such as velocity or a particular path taken by the object) the force would be called non-conservative.

Pentagon doctors endorse puberty blockers, hormone treatment for seven year-olds
A group of military doctors are calling on the Pentagon to endorse the "human right" of children as young as seven years old to undergo life-altering gender transition therapies, such as puberty blockers and hormone injections.
The disturbing manifesto appeared in the American Journal of Public Health, warning that failure to provide "gender-affirming care" to military children would harm the "readiness" of the armed services.
Authors David A. Klein, Thomas Baxter, and clinical psychologist Natasha A. Schvey, PhD work at Travis Air Force Base in California, while Noelle S. Larson is a pediatric endocrinologist at the Department of Pediatrics at Walter Reed medical center.
The article starts by echoing the bogus premise that the recent explosion in gender dysphoria among young people is the natural result of rising social acceptance, and not kids being influenced by their environment and predators pushing an ideology.
Woke Pentagon targets children
The authors dismissed "well-intentioned" doctors who advocate waiting before putting a child with gender dysphoria through a gender transition.
"Prior research has found that children can begin participating in their medical decision-making as early as age seven years with gradual increases in decision-making capacity, and adolescents prefer shared decision-making," the article says.
The radical push for so-called "gender-affirming care" by the Democratic party and leftist groups is based on cultic pseudoscience that is viewed with skepticism in Europe, where countries have moved to restrict gender transitions for minors.
Republican lawmakers' efforts to bar access to "gender-affirming care" threaten "military readiness," the Pentagon doctors argued.
"These laws and regulations are especially harmful to youths who identify as Black, Indigenous, or people of color and those from disadvantaged backgrounds," they wrote.
"Human right"
The authors acknowledged that 53 percent of military doctors said they would refuse to provide puberty blockers to minors.
Still, they urged the Pentagon to publicly endorse "gender-affirming care" for minors and train military doctors on providing it. The so-called doctors echoed the absurd claim that any effort to cure children of their dysphoria, so they can be their natural selves, is a form of "conversion therapy."
"Patients may face 'gatekeeping' and major delays in care, including protracted and pathologizing psychiatric evaluations that question patient motives," they wrote.
The authors asserted on the basis of "deontological and consequentialist reasoning, rooted in empirical evidence" that minors have a "human right" to "consent to gender-affirming therapy."
The ideological raving of these doctors is just more evidence of the decay of professional medicine and the "do no harm" principle in the era of vaccine mandates and woke insanity. China must be thrilled to know that radicals are destroying America from within.

Percussion Lag Controls: Sgram/PT Dialog >> Pitch-to-MIDI >> Percussion Setup
Percussion Lag adds a small delay before each percussion sound is played by the MIDI Percussion Setup. If all Percussion Instruments (A-F) have Lag set to zero, every sound will be "on the beat". Lag allows sounds to be slightly desynchronized, more like a real human musician and less "machine"-like. (Use of Velocity Pattern characters to produce slightly random strike forces will also help this.) You can even take into consideration that a single human percussionist may have a longer reach to hit certain instruments in a drum kit, by increasing the lag for those instruments to sound. For even more realism, you can vary the Percussion Lag during the performance using a Changes script. See the Random Percussion topic under Changes Script Tips and Tricks. The delay time is the Lag value multiplied by the Trace Update interval, which is typically 10 msec. A Lag of 1 would thus give a delay of 10 msec, which is just noticeable. The maximum Lag value of 15 would give a delay of 150 msec, which would be very noticeable. In general, the total delay should be kept under the Tempo msec value to avoid interference between beats. Percussion Lag can only delay sounds. However, you can use it to get sounds that are ahead of the beat. Consider that in most cases, there is no absolute reference to determine what is "on the beat" and what is early or late... everything is relative. So, you simply add a fixed Lag to all the other Percussion Instruments (as well as the Note Lag for each active Voice Setup), and define that time as "the beat". Any instrument that has less Lag will be ahead; any with more will be behind. gv=n sets the Percussion Lag for instrument v (which must be A to F, case-insensitive) to the value n, which may be any unsigned integer or valid expression, including current MIDI control values, random values, current computer keyboard states or mouse position, input or buffered notes, oscillators, and User Variables. Values will be limited to 0-15. For example, gB=4 sets the B instrument Lag to a value of 4, which would give a 40 msec lag with the default 10 msec Trace Update interval. For a realistic performance, you may want to have small variations about a central value, using either random values or slow oscillators, or some combination. You can use G instead of A-F to set all Percussion Lag values at once.
