High-end type of the higher power series
The DID HI-PWR-SHK roller chains have thicker hyperlink plates than HI-PWR-S roller chains, and therefore are the highest in tensile strength and allowable load among basic application chains, as a result becoming ideal for lower velocity hefty duty transmission.
Advised makes use of
?The HI-PWR-SHK roller chains are 25 % greater in tensile power and 50 percent higher in optimum allowable load compared to the standard roller chains, but since their excess weight is heavier, driving efficiency declines at large pace. So, they are really suitable for heavy duty at lower pace applications.
Multilevel parking machines, pipe benders, building machines, and so forth.
Choice of chains
Choose a right HI-PWR-SHK variety chain according to "Low-speed selection"
HI-PWR-SHK series is accessible in simplex.
Standard sprockets for multiplex chains cannot be utilised.
Connecting back links and offset links
The top attribute on the HI-PWR-SHK roller chains is substantial optimum allowable load. Thus, interference-fitted connecting hyperlinks (H connecting backlinks) with tiny power degradation are employed.
The connecting plate as well as connecting pins are linked with spring pins. The tensile power of an H connecting website link is equivalent to that with the chain, but the allowable load is somewhat reduced than that with the chain.
HI-PWR-S style roller chains do not have any offset hyperlink. Use an even quantity of back links.
Hardly ever make the holes on the connecting plate greater and never make the pins thinner to facilitate the function for fitting the pins into the connecting plate, considering that otherwise the fatigue power is going to be lowered.

The climate crisis is the defining issue of our time and what we do today will help determine a safer future for everyone. It's a planetary emergency where local action is crucial.
The One Planet City Challenge is our invitation to cities to stand up and be counted in the global action against climate change. Show the world what your city can do to help solve the crisis.
Our challenge is open to every local government on the planet, provided that they transparently report their climate work on a standardized international platform.
As a participant we will guide you towards science-based climate action, and shine the light on those of you that are frontrunners in your field. You will have ample opportunities for exchange, learning and recognition along the way.
Ultimately, we believe that we are united by the same goal – to create cities that enable people to thrive in balance with nature now and in the future. Read more.
Cities drive global GDP and generate the majority of the world's carbon emissions. Cities are also the place where the rubber meets the road when it comes to climate action. When urban citizens want action, it is usually their locally elected officials they turn to first – city officials have both the mandate and the influence to answer the call for climate action
Cities are where multiple, interlinked issues come into play, and where climate change solutions can be tried and tested. Cities can provide the world with much needed hope, ingenuity, and creativity.
- Support in setting science-based targets that reflect Paris Agreement goals.
- Customized feedback report on each city's alignment with the Paris Agreement and assessment of their climate work including:
- Support in understanding and structuring your overall climate performance
- Guidance on science-based targets
- Collaboration with leading city networks including the Global Covenant of Mayors, ICLEI, C40 and CDP.
- Recognition of achievements on WWF and partners' communications channels.
- All OPCC finalists are invited to participate in the We Love Cities public engagement campaign.
- Toolbox with guidance on design of a climate action package and educational materials aimed at increasing public participation and involvement.

Arkansas Made Dozier Black Widow Caper Bead-Blast Black G-10
Item #: DK-K47G10BB
Dozier "Arkansas Made" Knives are an every day carry class of knives that any serious hunter can afford to buy. Early 2016 I had lunch with Bob Dozier and his partner in the business, Daniel Crotts. Daniel was showing me a new knife he had designed and was carrying on his belt. I was just blown away and before the lunch was over, I had arranged for the exclusive rights to sell the knife that is being made in the Dozier shop and to reproduce it overseas. This version is handmade in Arkansas, USA.
This little knife measures only 6-1/2" overall with a 3" caping blade of D-2 tool steel with the special Dozier heat-treat at 60-61 Rc. The 3-1/2" handle is available with bead-blast black G-10.
The sheath is the remarkable Dozier Kydex® Safety-Carry horizontal carry sheath. Removing the knife requires the owners thumb pressing down on the top of the belt loop while pulling the knife up and out, assuring that it cannot be snatched off your belt by a limb, fence or another person.
Left hand sheaths are available by special order.
Blade Length3"
Blade SteelD2
HandleBead Blasted Black G-10
Overall Length6-1/2"
Weight2.7 oz.
Arkansas Made Dozier
Bob Dozier made his first knives when he was only twelve or thirteen years old. He told me the other day that after those few knives, he did not make another until he was about twenty-three and working as a rough neck in the oil fields in Louisiana. He talked about that first simple knife and then told a story about a co-worker asking to come to watch him make knives. Bob had made several knives by then and had created a small rough shop. He said the man stayed and watched until the knife was finished which took most of the day. When it was finished, he asked to look at it. After handling it for a while, he asked Bob how much he wanted for it. Without giving it any thought, Bob says he said $12.50. The man pulled out twelve one dollar bills and two quarters, laid them on the bench, got in his truck and left. Bob went in the house and told his wife he had just sold a knife which took him most of the day to make for $12.50. But, he told me, at that moment he knew he was going to be a knifemaker. That was about 1963.
If you had the opportunity to look through Bob's collection of his old knives, you would find that he has made many different kinds of knives; hunters, Bowies and fighters, and more recently folders. You can definitely see a relationship between a pair of fighting knives he made in those early years and the practical, utilitarian fighters that began to appear from handmade knifemakers and knife manufactures from the late 1960s and became tremendously popular during the Viet Nam War era. These knives used to be called fighting knives. Today they are called Tactical Knives.

Connected TV Looks to Clean the Slate … and Reclaim Valuable Wasted Real Estate
The 'We'll be right back' slate is stark evidence that a streaming service or one of its distribution partners couldn't sell a targeted ad for that particular moment. It's a sign of failure, of wasted opportunity
If you watch a live, linear show on connected TV these days, it's only a matter of not very much time before a static on-screen slate, or card, pops up, saying something along the lines of "We'll Be Right Back."
For the industry, such slates signal both nostalgia and missed opportunity when it comes to streaming video in 2021.
Nostalgia because they've been used not only throughout television history, but really, as far back as the early days of the movie business too. I remember being surprised years ago while watching a DVD version of West Side Story to see an "Intermission" slate halfway through the 2.5-hour film (watching all those dancing gang members must have exhausted audiences in 1961).
But these days, using a slate should also cause a pang of regret for every streaming network executive involved. The slate is stark evidence that the streaming service or one of its distribution partners couldn't sell a targeted ad for that particular moment to that particular household. It's a sign of failure, of wasted opportunity.
Even worse, though the network says it'll be right back, there's no guarantee the audience will. Dead air tends to encourage a viewer to look for something else to watch. And they may not return.
The bitter cherry atop this sundae of sorrow, of course, is that the network running the card must still pay something as it streams nothing, even as it loses some portion of its audience. Ouch.
It's not just the fault of streaming companies, of course. While advertisers have pivoted notably toward connected TV and free, ad-supported TV channels, they're not all the way there yet.
Advertisers still over-index the resources they devote to legacy broadcast and pay-TV networks (print magazines and newspapers, too), at least when compared to the eyeballs still found there.
So, most connected TV platforms and networks have way more inventory than ads to fill the slots.
To paper over that hole, the industry pulled out its playbook from 1912 and came up with, "We'll Be Right Back." This has been a failure of imagination by an entire industry. There has to be a better way.
One company that's trying to innovate here is New York-based Origin, founded in 2019 by two veterans of the E.W. Scripps-owned CTV pioneer Newsy. I talked with CEO Fred Godfrey about the company's just-announced product, Slate, which is specifically about transforming dead air with bits of content that might actually keep audiences around.
"It is reprehensible that seven decades (after modern TV began), the only thing that channels are doing is having a slate saying we'll be right back," Godfrey said. "That's where people churn. That's where people change the channels, where they do anything except stay engaged with the TV. And in a world where fighting for attention in this exploding universe is so important, that can't happen."
Slate came out of Origin's first product, Slingshot, which wraps 15 or 30 seconds of additional content before or after a traditional ad running on CTV. That content might be a QR code, or feel-good content on a general topic to get someone better inclined for the brand message to come.
"We do a lot of brand studies," Godfrey said. "And we effectively prove that we can bring people's eyeballs and attention back to the TV, because we've dared to ask these big important questions that other people don't want to, which is, 'Are people even looking?' And we actually care about that. And we say they're not, and here's the proof, but we can get them looking."
Slate differs from Slingshot's ad wrap-arounds, because it's standalone content that doesn't have to be tied to a specific sponsor, Godfrey said. It takes advantage of connected TV by including little streamed bits of targeted data on screen, like local weather, traffic on nearby streets, or betting odds for local sports teams.
One analog of Slate actually comes from the movie business in more recent years. You may recall in the Before Times that many theaters would show an onscreen loop of trivia, entertainment news, factoids, static ads, promos and other material before starting the really important stuff, like trailers.
But Slate – with those localized, targeted data feeds – can be far more individualized, helping recapture the attention of the more distracted home TV viewer. And recapturing attention is vital given all that vies for a home viewer's focus.
The idea of the Slate material is "Let's make it really engaging, really catchy, and force people to want to stay there until your programming returns," Godfrey said. "We learned how to create what could be three seconds or one second or two minutes, or whatever it was, was never repetitive, never boring, and could be customized to that specific channel. It does all the stuff of a promo, or tomorrow tune in, or an old-fashioned ad filler. But the kicker is we've also designed it to be seamlessly sponsor-able by brands, who are looking for new ways to get on TV that aren't just in an app."
Origin's attention to an overlooked corner of an existing ecosystem feels a lot like another New York-based company founded by media veterans. I'm thinking of Giphy, which during the 2010s built a billion-dollar business by indexing all those goofy, low-bandwidth animated GIFs that are now an essential part of text messaging and social media. The company's founders realized search giant Google hadn't bothered to track that burgeoning space, so Giphy seized what turned out to be a huge opportunity.
That doesn't mean Origin will cash in at a similar level, or that it will be the only one to do so.
But it's clear audiences want more than dead air during their entertainment experiences, especially in an era of endless choice. Someone's going to reclaim that time, that audience and that money. It only took most of a century to figure it out. ■

Emanuel Ax Brings Both Authority and Brilliance to His All-Chopin Recital in La Jolla
As Emanuel Ax launched into his vigorous account of Frédêric Chopin's Third Piano Sonata in B Minor, Op. 58, the apex of his all-Chopin recital Friday at The Conrad, my favorite Mae West quotation came to mind.
"Too much of a good thing . . . can be wonderful."
With his meticulously ordered survey of Chopin's late works, Ax gave us his elegant but probing consideration of this repertory—dance movements, nocturnes, and the valedictory sonata—clad in his impeccable technique and unfailing stylistic empathy. Ax was born in Poland, like Chopin, and, like him, Ax spent his career entirely apart from his native soil. But it would be difficult to deny the virtuoso's birthright identity with the beloved 19th-century composer.Ax's recital unfolded sleekly without intermission: once he came on stage, he remained at the piano for an hour and a half, standing only for short, almost apologetic bows after a few sections, each subtly delineated on the printed program. This approach provided an unmatched level of concentration on the music for both the performer and the audience, although I cannot say I am eager for this practice to become universal.
Ax opened with understatement, Two Nocturnes, Op. 55. The graceful F Minor Nocturne displayed Ax's incomparable rich, pliant cantabile solo line, and the E-flat Major Nocturne featured a kind of bright contrapuntal engagement of right hand and left hand that is unusual for Chopin, as Eric Bromberger pointed out in his always insightful program notes. The Polonaise-Fantasie in A-flat Major, Op. 61, is one of those virtuoso showpieces that thrills Chopin lovers and tries the patience of those listeners who require more structural coherence and logic. Ax treated the Polonaise-Fantasie as the inspired improvisation it no doubt was at its conception, bridging its disparate sections with a confident emotional continuity and, of course, his admirable technical finesse.
Of the Three Mazurkas, Op. 56, I found the C Minor Mazurka, the final of the three, the most winning, with its darker harmonic palette suggesting a mysterious program that an engaged listener might eagerly conjure. The mesmerizing pulse and characteristic figuration of a barcarole can leave little impression other than a wan smile on the face of a listener, but Ax's account of Chopin's Barcarolle in F-sharp Major, Op. 60, with his elegant touch and masterful treatment of tumultuous conclusion, gave the piece the shape and feel of a grand orchestral tone poem.
Perhaps it is too glib to say that the first hour of Ax's Chopin recital was spent preparing his audience for the Sonata No. 3 in B Minor, but I have no doubt they were more receptive to experiencing the Sonata than if they had just returned from 20 minutes of avid socializing at intermission.
Like the first portion of his program, Ax's Sonata performance benefited from his unrelenting, adroitly concentrated sense of purpose and direction throughout the span of the work. The B Minor Sonata may not fit a Music Theory instructor's precise definition of sonata form, but Ax's persuasive authority made every new theme and section seem integral and requisite.
His majestic sweep of the opening Allegro and his seamless grace of the animated Scherzo gave way to a more emotionally probing account of the solemn Largo that at times evoked a pensive nocturne. Ax transcended challenges of the flashy Finale with a confident exuberance and virtuosic splendor that will be hard to equal.
This marked the third time in less than a year that we have experienced Chopin's B Minor Sonata: Yefim Bronfman played it at The Conrad last May, and Gustavo Romero played it at the Athenaeum in October. I think I am at last beginning appreciate this Sonata!
This recital by Emanuel Ax was presented on Friday, January 7, 2022, by the La Jolla Music Society at the Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center in downtown La Jolla.

Several officials in President Trump's coronavirus endeavor pressure have observed their notoriety elevated in latest months, primarily from becoming present during each day press briefings
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Illnesses, is arguably the most recognizable identify. He has turn into so popular, his likeness has spawned everything from bobbleheads and doughnuts to pasta dishes.
A different process pressure member is Adm. Brett Giroir, M.D., the assistant secretary of the Office of Well being and Human Companies and top professional medical and science adviser to Secretary Alex Azar. He oversees the U.S. Public Overall health Company Commissioned Corps and is tasked with overseeing coronavirus testing efforts.
Below are four things to know about Giroir.
Giroir was born in Louisiana and educated at Harvard University and the College of Texas Southwestern Professional medical Middle. He began his career as a pediatrician in Texas and ultimately turned the main at Dallas' Children's Health-related Middle.
He was sworn in as assistant secretary at HHS in 2018. He oversees the agency's public health places of work, together with the Workplace of the Surgeon Standard, according to his biography.
He is also responsible for coordinating efforts to overcome the opioid disaster.
Giroir, 59, serves as Trump's coronavirus testing czar, which has proved hard amid a scarcity of test kits. He was handed the career in March right after Trump falsely claimed that exams ended up out there to any one who required one particular.
Shortages of screening kits have hampered initiatives to beat the disaster, which has prolonged the crisis and lockdown steps in spot nationwide.
Earlier this month, Giroir reported adequate tests ended up out there for individuals who needed them.
"We are not going to have tens of hundreds of thousands of exams this week, but we will have a million-as well as assessments, moreover all the countless numbers of hospitals who do their possess checks," Giroir said on NBC's "Right now." "That should really be adequate to get treatment of the load we're likely to see this 7 days."
Some governors have criticized the examination shortfall, with most saying efforts to reopen their economies are contingent on a sufficient provide of checks.
Compelled out
In advance of he went to function for the govt, Giroir worked on vaccine development at Texas A&M University. After 8 several years, he was abruptly forced out in 2015, The Washington Put up claimed this week.
A neighborhood media report on his yearly overall performance analysis reported Giroir was "more intrigued in promoting yourself" than his perform as director of the Texas vaccine challenge. He normally designed sweeping statements about his get the job done, the Article reported, which came again with blended effects.
He blamed his departure on internal politics at the university, not his get the job done.

Stalled nomination
Giroir's nomination for the assistant secretary place was held up for the reason that of Democratic fears about no matter whether he would assistance women's overall health plans. Some lawmakers were concerned about his potential oversight of the Office of Population Affairs, which administers Title X grants, and the Business of Adolescent Overall health.
The OAH oversees the Teen Pregnancy Prevention System.
"After thoroughly reviewing his skills, I am unconvinced Dr. Giroir would be keen to stand up to this administration's ideological assaults on gals in a essential management function at HHS," Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wa., said in a statement, Kaiser Health and fitness News reported.

Kellogg has unveiled the executive picks for its soon-to-be spun-off North America cereals business with company veteran Gary Pilnick heading the pack.
Pilnick is to become the chief executive of what is for now named North America Cereal Co. He will be joined by newly-appointed finance chief Dave McKinstray, another Kellogg stalwart, when the spin-off formally takes place, which is expected by the end of 2023.
Kellogg announced the restructuring in June, with North America Cereal Co. one of three reincarnations along with the Global Snacking Co. and Plant Co.
Steve Cahillane, Kellogg's chairman and CEO, is set to take on the same roles at the new Global Snacking Co. Announcing the appointments at the North American cereal entity today (24 August), he said: "Gary is a 22-year Kellogg veteran whose inspiring leadership style, deep knowledge of the business and central role in defining the company's successful strategy, make him the natural choice to lead North America Cereal Co."
Pilnick is vice chairman for corporate development and Kellogg's chief legal officer and was a key "architect" of the Deploy for Growth Strategy launched in 2018 to improve sales.

By GlobalDataNorth America Cereal will house brands including Special K, Frosted Flakes and Froot Loops. It will supply the US, Canada and the Caribbean.
Revealing the transformation project two months ago, Kellogg said the move would "enhance performance and value". However, the company indicated it may choose to dispose of the plant-based business, which houses the MorningStar Farms brand, following the split.
The plant-based arm and the North American cereals businesses represented a combined 20% of Kellogg's group sales in 2021.
Pilnick said: "The remarkable story of Kellogg Company began with cereal, and through more than a century of operational success, we have the privilege of taking what has grown into a $2.4bn business on its next journey as North America Cereal Co."
His team will also comprise Sherry Brice-Williamson as chief supply chain officer and Doug VanDeVelde as CGO. Bruce Brown will serve as chief customer officer and Shannon Bible will fill the chief transformation officer role.
Kellogg issued its first-half results earlier this month accompanied by a doubling in the full-year outlook for organic sales growth. Demand for snacks, noodles and breakfast cereal led the better-than-expected performance over the opening six months of its fiscal year.

I believe that the report asked for the Government to respond to a series of its recommendations by December 1995. The real issue is whether or not we are appropriately using government cars in the ACT. I understand that the Government has taken the attitude that a reduction in the use of cars can be achieved and should be achieved in line with the recommendations of the Auditor-General and the Public Accounts Committee, and I hope that that is exactly what will be achieved. At the same time, I think it is important for us to recognise that service within the Territory is what government is about and, if we get to the stage where we do not have enough vehicles to deliver service, we may well have increased our problem.

Celebrate Indigenous culture with these Queensland experiences
By Sarah Bristow | Presented by Tourism and Events Queensland|
Considering Australia's Aboriginal culture is the world's oldest — dating back more than 40,000 years — it's no surprise there's an abundance of historical traditions, stories and practices to discover.
Queensland plays host to a series of events and experiences, which grant locals and visitors alike a chance to learn about our Indigenous culture first-hand.
For those with a penchant for history, or those who simply want to help celebrate the country's original inhabitants, the following experiences are must-dos.
Cairns Indigenous Art Fair, Tropical North Queensland (July 12 – 14)
Free entry
This year marks a decade of the Cairns Indigenous Art Fair, an annual celebration of Indigenous art and its talented creators. For its 10th birthday, the event will host three full days of art, dance, music, and workshops.
"What I love is that two unique Indigenous cultures are on display in one place," explains General manager Vanessa Gillen.
"Queensland art and culture is still a new experience for most Australians, so having the opportunity to immerse yourself in one event and view the art, hear music and experience locally made food is a one-stop shop of cultural immersion for our visitors."
Ngadiku Dreamtime Walks at Mossman Gorge, Tropical North Queensland (all year round)
$75 adult/$37 children
On the southern tip of the Daintree Rainforest in Tropical North Queensland sits the stunning Mossman Gorge. While a self-led exploration of the leafy stretch is incredible, no visit is quite complete without taking part in the Ngadiku Dreamtime Walks.
Conducted by the local Indigenous community, these educational wanders take intimate groups of 15 through culturally significant and jaw-droppingly beautiful sites alike.
Among the activities incorporated throughout, guests will take part in a traditional 'smoking' ceremony to ward away bad spirits, learn how to forage for bush tucker, and take a look at traditional humpies.
The Gulf Country Frontier Days Festival, Tropical North Queensland (August 15 – 18)
From $15
Once a year the tiny Burketown in the Gulf Savannah (boasting a population of just 200) becomes home to one of the state's most lively cultural events. The Gulf Country Frontier Days Festival has helped put Burketown on the map (aside from its reputation as the barramundi capital of Australia), a three-day celebration of Indigenous rodeo, music and culture.
Perhaps its most-loved event is the the Kabarrijbi Wangkijbi Spectacular, a 'coming together of Native Nations' that sees a smorgasbord of native people join together in a celebration of culture, dance and music.
Quandamooka Festival, Brisbane (June 1 – August 31)
Prices vary
The Quandamooka people are an Aboriginal group based around the picturesque islands of Moreton Bay and North Stradbroke in Southeastern Queensland. The Quandamooka have a proud heritage strewn across both land and sea culture, which they come to celebrate across the winter months at Quandamooka Festival.
As 2019 is the International Year of Indigenous Languages, Quandamooka Festival 2019 has decreed this year's theme to be Jandai Wuluara, Ngaliya Wulara or 'Jandai Lingo, Our Lingo'.
Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park, Tropical North Queensland
Adult $62/ Child $42
Cairns is not only the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef, but home to the fully immersive Indigenous experience Tjapukai, the cultural centre that has been sharing the knowledge and traditions of the local Djabugay people for the past three decades.
More importantly than its educational prowess, Tjapukai has heart; it's proudly the largest Indigenous employer of any tourism enterprise in Australia, and works closely alongside traditional owners to ensure its profits are being injected back into the surrounding Indigenous community.
From food and wine, to sports and cultural experiences, Queensland has an abundance of events on show this year. For more information, including a full calendar of 2019's offerings, visit queensland.com/events

Solspace releases Repeet 2.0
I've been using ExpressionEngine for a number of years now. Not surprisingly, I think it's a very robust and flexible CMS that can handle many different types of content, from blogs and wikis to photo galleries and discussion forums. However, one type of content that can be rather difficult to create and manage in EE is an event calendar. Enter Repeet, a plugin that allows you to simulate recurring events with standard weblog entries (among other things).
Repeet had been originally developed by Brent Wilson, but recently, Solspace acquired the plugin and have released a new version with several improvements. I've found Repeet to be a very useful addition to my EE toolbox, and so I'm glad to see it get these updates.

High moisture in the air is an awful feeling. And it is worse when it is during summertime. When it is too humid in your humid, there is a feeling of hot flashes, a sense of agitation, and total discomfort – that goes away only by having your indoor air quality back.
The range of indoor humidity that is acceptable is 30-50%. Anything beyond that becomes suffocating and extremely damaging for your home. There can be mold growth and condensation issues in your walls, further leading to structural deterioration and wood rot.
Too much humidity is bad for your health, too, as it can cause you to develop severe respiratory problems, allergy flare-ups, and sleep interruptions. But how can you go about assessing if your home is too humid?
Well, the sweat on you back can be a sign, but a hygrometer is a more accurate parameter. It measures moisture levels in the air and gives you an indication when it is time to reduce those humidity levels. In short, it helps you stay in the sweet spot (perfect range) where you feel the most comfortable.
Once you get the right understanding, you can then use any of these ways to control the humidity in your home –
- Invest in Dehumidifiers
This is the most obvious tip to help the homeowners eradicate the excess moisture inside their premises. These devices are specifically designed to suck the water out of the indoor air and reduce humidity. You can put them in different areas of your home, such as bathroom and basement.
- Take Short and Cool Showers
Hot showers are one of the major culprits behind increasing the humidity levels of the home. The steam from hot water quickly gets into the air and affects the whole house, including the bathrooms. Now that doesn't mean you take ice baths, just lower the temperature of your shower water by a few degrees.
- Switch on the Air Conditioners
Air conditioners are indeed your best bet to reduce the indoor humidity. These instruments successfully introduce cooler air while eliminating the warm, humid air from your house in its entirety. So, make sure you tune up your AC and frequently change its air filter to work optimally.
- Fix Any Leakages
An extremely unwise thing you can do when trying to reduce humidity is to add more. And your leaking pipes and sinks just do that. So, first of all, look for signs of leakage in and around and repair them at the earliest in order to prevent the structural integrity of your home.
- Open the Windows
Sometimes the air outside can be less humid than your house. In that case, opening the sliding windows in your kitchen can bring you a sigh of relief. You can also consider opening the garden doors for a few hours every day to enjoy the breath of fresh air and remove the strange odors

A second suspect has been arrested in relation to the disappearance of 31-year-old Angelos Perikleous, police said on Wednesday.
The suspect is a 36-year-old man facing charges of kidnapping with the intent to murder, and for setting fire to the victim's car, which was found torched near the Paliometocho shooting range.
A link was found between the 36-year-old and the first suspect, who was remanded in custody for eight days on Monday after facing Limassol district court.
The first suspect, a 24-year-old who turned himself in on Sunday, was arrested after dozens of bullets and small amounts of cannabis were found in the car he had been driving.
According to Limassol CID spokesman Lefteris Kyriacou, the two had personal and financial differences, while there is a testimony that the younger man had expressed fears for his life.
Kyriacou added that last month, the 24-year-old had filed a complaint with Larnaca CID, saying that Perikleous had attacked him, taking €100,000 and other objects from him.
He was also the last person to be seen with Perikleous before his disappearance.
Police obtained an arrest warrant against the 36-year-old after it was found that the car the other suspect had been driving was registered in his name.
He was subsequently arrested and is under interrogation, police said.

BMWs are known for their high fuel economy and long-lasting engines, but they also cost a lot. This makes buyers wonder: Are they worth it? How many miles can a BMW go before it breaks?
If you take care of your BMW, it should last between 200,000 and 250,000 miles. As the car gets older, you can expect to have to replace common parts like the coolant system, electric windows, and battery, in addition to doing regular maintenance.
You Are Watching: How Long Do BMW Last Updated 02/2024
People still drive BMWs that were bought in the 1980s all the time. You might even see well-kept BMWs with more than 500,000 miles on their odometers at the track on the weekends.
My first BMW was a 3-series, which I drove until it had 209,000 miles on it and then sold. With that in mind, you should think about what you should do (and what you shouldn't do) to help your BMW last.
BMW Mileage Expectations
These days, BMWs don't appeal to drivers who want to get the most out of their money by buying a car that can go through several "cannonball runs."
This market can find cars that last as long as a BMW for a lot less money, but have a lot less comfort.
BMW fans think that their "Bimmers" drive much better than other cars, so they can enjoy every mile they drive instead of just racking up miles without thinking.
BMW's engineering is still the best, and sitting in a BMW is the best way to reach all of the car's buttons and controls.
Unlike the competing Subaru, which is also known for its durability, most BMWs are rear-wheel-drive cars with perfect weight distribution between the rear and front wheels.
This engineering makes these cars "bulletproof" for new drivers and ensures that the engine, chassis, and body will last for a very long time—well over 200,000 miles.
If you take good care of your BMW, it shouldn't break down and should last you at least 20 years. It's not unusual to find a BMW in the garages of our grandparents or in the collections of car fans or millionaires who like old cars.
All of them will run like new if you test them on the road.
A BMW with more than 100,000 miles on the odometer that has been well taken care of will look much better than a Toyota Corolla with the same number of miles that has also been well taken care of.
The paint job on a BMW will look much better and have fewer flaws. Its parts will also last longer, even though they cost more.
How Reliable Are BMW Hybrids?
Most of BMW's new hybrid and electric cars, like the i3 and the i8, haven't been tested much yet.
Read More : How To Clean Fuel Injectors Without Removing Them Updated 02/2024
People say that most cars in this category break down before they reach 100,000 miles. But the BMW models have parts made of carbon fibre that are as strong as steel but weigh half as much.
Hyundai, Kia, and Toyota, which are BMW's competitors, all have more aluminium and plastic in the engine bay, which mechanics are starting to fear. BMWs, on the other hand, can last much longer.
But BMW's electric cars are still not always dependable.
What Is High Mileage for a BMW?
"There is no such thing as an old BMW" is a popular saying among people who like cars. Fans say that BMW models from the 1980s still drive as well as they did when they were brand new. Many BMW car clubs exist across America.
But, like every other car company, the German company has made a few bad cars that you should avoid. Don't buy anything from the BMW 3 Series from 2012, the BMW 3 Series from 2016, or the BMW 5 Series from 2009.
You might be able to find some cheap models online, but that's because they won't work after a few thousand miles of driving.
If you take good care of your BMW, you might be able to drive it up to 300,000 or even 500,000 miles, which is a lot for any car.
Also, you'll be able to drive those miles in comfort that neither a Toyota nor a Kia can give you.
What Are the First Things to Fail or Need Replacing on a BMW?
Even though BMW cars have some of the best engineering on moving bodies, they are still far from perfect.
BMWs tend to break down, especially if they don't get regular maintenance.
Here are the first things that BMW drivers commonly replace on their cars:
The system for coolant.
If a BMW doesn't get regular maintenance, the coolant system could break between 80,000 and 120,000 miles later.
The ones with electricity.
The electronics in a BMW's cockpit are controlled by a complicated electronic system, and the electric windows are often the first thing to break.
The way the climate is controlled. The BMW's climate control system is closely tied to the coolant system. It can often overheat or underheat, which could mean that the coolant system is failing.
Batteries are dead.
Read More : Some Problem Jumper Cables Smoking Updated 02/2024
Since BMWs have a lot of electronics, they use up more battery power than other cars. Even the way the car locks is powered by a battery, so if your battery dies, you might have to use an old-fashioned key to get in.
The knobs on the door.
The BMW X5 has a problem with door handles that break. If you lift the door handles and nothing happens, you will need to replace the whole locking mechanism.
How Can I Get More Mileage Out of my BMW?
To keep your beloved car in good shape and running well, make sure to:
Change your oil often and use the oil that BMW says is best for your model.
It's also important to keep your tyres at the right PSI, replace old cabin filters, and stick to a tune-up schedule.
Limit your use to only a third of what the BMW manual says is the maximum vehicle capacity. Not only will this keep your ride comfortable, but it will also help your suspension, chassis, and engine last longer.
What Separates BMWs From Other Cars?
The company that makes BMWs, Bavarian Motor Works (Bayerische Motoren Werke AG), began making aeroplane engines in 1916. In 1928, the company started making engines for cars. Now, it makes BMW, Rolls-Royce, and Mini cars.
BMW has always been proud of its cars, calling them the "ultimate driving machines." With the release of the hand-built BMW M5 sedan in 1985, which was the fastest mass-produced car of the decade, the slogan became a real thing that people could drive.
When the BMW 520i came out in 2001, it brought BMW's famed durability into an era where fuel efficiency is king and durability is second. Newer Asian competitors have made cheaper cars by making engine parts out of plastic and aluminium, which are less expensive.
But BMW has stuck with engine designs that have worked well for decades. Over time, the company has made small, careful changes to its engine and hasn't added anything to its production models until the new technologies have been perfected.
BMW vs. Today's Popular Cars
Toyota, which is one of the biggest car brands in the world today, has been the only car company to follow this philosophy. With the release of the Prius, the Japanese company hoped to join Tesla as the most well-known name in hybrid and electric cars.
But BMW is right behind Toyota with its electric i3 and i8 cars made of carbon fibre.
The difference is that BMW models are more expensive and out of reach for many people, while Toyota's Prius models are priced to be more accessible to the general public.
Throughout its history, BMW has been known as an innovator and has never been beat when it comes to durability and longevity. But because the average BMW costs so much, competitors like Toyota and Hyundai have taken most of the market share.
Today, what sets BMWs apart from other cars is their drivers. BMW drivers are passionate about driving, while drivers of other cars just see their cars as tools to get them from A to B.
In conclusion, the last word is that if you take good care of your car, you should be able to drive it for hundreds of thousands of miles. If you're still not sure whether BMWs are good cars or not, you should also read this article.

Thanks, Woody. The Summarex is magic. I love the OOF rendering.Cindy
I am so happy to see you posting images from your 85 summarex. I will be posting some from mine tomorrow. This is a very special lens and for me much better than the 90 APO which is certainly a wonderful piece of glass.
Let's all of us celebrate the old Leica looks
kinok1: Did you do some photoshopping on those photos? Very high contrast, low saturation, and grainy - like beach bypass. I like the look, just curious if you played around some either in exposing, developing, or photoshop. Very different from what I've gotten from Portra 160.
CV 15mm and Portra 400NC:

kinok1, You are welcome. I had already loaded up my M5 with some Porta 160 before I started this thread. Your beautiful photos have made me anxious to finish the roll. I haven't shot any color for a while.Slight desaturation and a contrast boost in lightroom. I've been a lurker here on this forum for a long time. Love the people and the information. Always good. I've been shooting more and more film both personally and professionally, and a big thanks to Cindy for starting this thread!
Thanks Claus! Appreciate it.Wonderful images.
Now i have to buy a Film M, just to post some images here
@Kinok1: Your fotos are beautiful. Very stylish.

Our Associate Director of Patient Centred Care, Karen Holden, was recently asked to speak at a Care Opinion event about our trust's journey with Care Opinion. You can read all about what Karen had to say on her brilliant blog here.
For her presentation, Karen asked me to share my thoughts on our journey with Care Opinion too, and so I recorded a video to share at the event.
I've been using Care Opinion for six years across three different organisations and so I was keen to share my learning as well as why I feel it's so important to empower all staff to be involved.
My name is Hayley Peters. I'm Chief Nurse at Musgrove Park hospital and also Somerset Partnership. My experience with Patient - and now Care - Opinion spans six years and three different organisations and I've learnt a fair bit along the way.
I think it has the power to truly transform the way that we listen to patients and if we do it right and we engage frontline teams in responding, it can really act as a significant cultural lever in affirming the values and behaviours that we expect from our teams
It really requires that you let go of central control, and it's really important that you do
It really requires that you let go of central control, the desire to filter everything, every response, and it's really important that you do that, it's really important for me that we let go and that we empower and that we trust our front line teams to respond.
In doing so, they engage fully, they connect with that feedback and own it and overwhelmingly it's positive, and that's really motivating particularly when a member of staff has been named and it's very public and that can be really celebrated and it positively affirms the behaviours and the values that we live in the organisation and that we want our staff to share with patients and visitors.
Having that platform of overwhelmingly positive feedback allows our teams to embrace the development of more negative feedback, which is rare actually, but when they do they connect with it fully and they truly listen and they learn and they think about what they can do to improve.
It also means that the response is properly from the heart of the front line and that means it's authentic and locally owned and I think that's really important.
Finally, sharing Care Opinion stories online is a great way of, I guess, responding publicly but also sharing with staff and your local community. More recently we've taken the step to positively share the development of more negative feedback and I think that shows our commitment to transparency and real patient engagement.
So I'm delighted, six years in. I wouldn't be without it and I look forward to using it more in the future.

Let's start with the definitive question of the new era for airlines. If all prices are equal, how do you win a customer?
Technology is certainly a part of it and the on board experience unquestionably is too. But let's be real — it's usually chicken or fish whatever airline you fly and every airline can buy the same technology.
So how do you separate yourself beyond shared catering or identical seats with unique color schemes? Perks and loyalty is the latest answer. The way things are going, you no longer need to be a frequent flyer to have tangible benefits, just one who is loyal.
Airlines Move To Milestone Perks
JetBlue and American have started the year off by doing something few other airlines have, but many more airlines will in the future.
Both airlines now offer customers perks before they hit any official "tier" or "level" in their loyalty program. These are perks for crossing achievable milestones which many people should be able to accomplish with as little as a couple annual trips.
Hotels were already on this trend, but more on the in between elite statuses, and not so much the "before status" ground. The exception would be free wifi for anyone who enrolls in their loyalty program. It's quite a powerful driver in this age.
The goal? Capture those annual trips. Every one of them.
With basic economy, legacy airlines made a conscious choice to compete with discount "no frills" carriers on price and that was important, even if unpopular. Consumer data suggests at least 90% of passengers make purchases based on price alone.
And yes, many may fail to factor the cost of ancillary purchases like seats or bags with some lead in prices, but that's another story for another day.
The risk with that price based strategy was that if everything differentiating part of the legacy airline experience was stripped away, price would always be the only deciding factor. Would brand, or perception of a better experience be enough? Not always.
So here we are with customizable perks before status.
Fly or spend with us a couple times and you might earn priority boarding, passes for preferred seats or a beverage on board. Both American and JetBlue are now allowing customers to choose their perks as they earn them.
At just 15,000 loyalty points, which can be earned from spending or flying, an American customer can now pick between having priority benefits for one trip, a higher group boarding for the year or preferred seat coupons. JetBlue's choices are arguably even richer and more broadly appealing.
For a customer booking on price but with multiple airline options to choose from at the same price, the ability to actually achieve rich rewards should certainly fuel the purchase decision.
If I can fly Frontier and get absolutely nothing for my $50 fare, or fly JetBlue for the same price a few times a year and get some drink tickets or security fast track passes, I'll absolutely choose the latter.
This makes the concept of customer loyalty extend well and truly down to the base, and to people who aren't frequent travelers. Loyalty is valued, even if it's for one or two annual trips, rather than once or twice a week.
It's a powerful notion and one that will be incredibly fun to watch, as more airlines bundle their lower tier perk options.

The fire reached a three-alarm response, but Toronto Fire said the bulk of the blaze had been knocked down.
The cause, origin and circumstance of the fire are unknown. Toronto Fire investigators will work with the Ontario Fire Marshal to determine what led to the blaze.
"We're in the preliminary stages. We're going to have to commence a comprehensive investigation, and part of that process will be doing a thorough examination of the scene, going through the debris to ascertain the origin and the ignition sources," Toronto Fire Deputy Chief Larry Cocco said.
When asked if there were smoking alarms in the affected unit, he noted that the scene was still being assessed.
Several residents had to be evacuated, and TTC buses were called to shelter them temporarily while crews worked on fully extinguishing the fire. Cocco did not provide the exact number of displaced residents.
He said there's some possible smoke and water damage in adjacent units.
"Right now, they're doing a comprehensive assessment of the floors below and above and on the same floor to see what units are re-occupiable," Cocco said.

Power Equals Opportunity
Access to reliable and clean energy is a fundamental necessity for human life and economic development. However, more than 840 million people still live without access to power and hundreds of millions more suffer frequent outages. This energy poverty limits communities' ability to lift themselves out of poverty, access modern healthcare and education, and run businesses.
Where there is no electricity, there is no light and no access to the tools that power businesses — and only limited access to modern health care and education. Providing reliable electricity is the first step toward helping a community lift itself from poverty. This single factor is so crucial that The Rockefeller Foundation has made one of the biggest bets in its history to end energy poverty. A steady power source transforms every facet of human life. Families can illuminate their homes, communicate with the outside world, and children can study at night. Access to power can improve irrigation and boost crop yields and productivity of local agriculture. Small businesses of all kinds can expand and connect with outside markets.
- 840million
people live without access to any electricity worldwide
- 55%
of people in Sub-Saharan Africa have no access to electricity today
- 650million
people will still lack access in 2030 at the current rate of progress
In the past, there has been an assumed trade-off between increasing energy access and fighting climate change. However, breakthroughs in distributed and renewable energy have made it possible to provide clean, reliable energy access to all, while limiting future greenhouse gas emissions. Innovation and the changing economics of renewable and distributed systems have aligned the goals of clean energy production with ending poverty, making them mutually reinforcing through the pursuit of inclusive economic development and combating climate change.
The climate crisis threatens to undo decades of global progress in reducing poverty. That is why it is imperative that energy access is designed with climate-smart energy systems and technologies that are built for the future.
The Rockefeller Foundation remains committed to its mission of ending energy poverty and combatting climate change, recognizing that reliable access to clean and affordable energy is the key to a more just and sustainable future for all.
