Revision as of 16:39, March 6, 2007
Our venerable and God-bearing Father Simeon the Myrrh-flowing, in the world Stefan Nemanja, (in Serbian: Преподобни Симеон Мироточиви) was a Serbian ruler, monk, and saint in the 12th century. He is the father of St. Sava of Serbia. His feast day is celebrated on February 13.
Early life
He was born in 1113 or 1114 in town of Ribnica (today Podgorica, Montenegro). His father Zavida, a member of ruling dynasty of Raška (the most important state of the Serbs), was exiled in principality of Duklja, a minor Serbian state. Nemanja was baptized by a Roman Catholic priest because there was no Orthodox priest in Ribnica. When Zavid came back in Raška, his youngest son was re-baptized by the bishop of Ras Kalink.
Vassal prince
In 1163 the grand prince of Raška Desa, Nemanja's kinsman was replaced by Nemanja's eldest brother, Stefan Tihomir. This took place by the will of Emperor Manuel I Komnenos (1143-1180).
Tihomir's brothers became minor princes. Nemanja was a prince in counties of Ibar, Toplica, Rasina, and Reke. Later, the emperor granted him the county of Dubočica and imperial rank (sometimes mistranslated as imperial dream). Nemanja, several years before, personaly met the powerful emperor. Some historians suggest that Nemanja's wife Ana, later Saint Anastasia, was a Byzantine noblewoman. This could explain the emperor's sympathy for him.
Nemanja was popular among the people because he was a good ruler and a pious man. He soon built two monasteries: the Monastery of Holy Mother of Godon on the rivers Kosanica and Toplica, and the Monastery of Saint Nicholas-Kuršumlija. His brothers called him to council and imprisoned him and held him in a nearby cave. Saint George freed Nemanja from the cave. Nemanja soon, with support of the people, nobility, and the Church, deposed Tihomir and became the grand prince in 1166.
Nemanja's brothers raised a mercenary army, made up of Turks, Franks, and Greeks. Nemanja defeated them in the Battle of Pantin, near Zvečan, in 1168. Tihomir drowned himself in the river Sitnica, and Nemanja captured two other brothers: Stefan Miroslav and Stefan Stratimir. He reconciled with them and they were given back their principalities.
Nemanja built the Monastery of Saint George near his capital Ras. This monastery was later known as Đurđevi Stupovi. He tried to gain full independence from the Byzantine Empire in 1172, but failed; he was defeated and surrendered himself to the emperor. He came to Manuel with his head and feet bare and gave him his own sword as mark of surrender. He vowed that he would remain loyal to the emperor. Manuel brought him with him and presented him in imperial triumph.
Nemanja remained loyal to Manuel until Manuel's death. He used the next several years to deal with dangerous Bogumil heresy and to strengthen Orthodox faith in people. After death of Manuel, Nemanja gained independence and conquered the Duklja principality, Korčula, Vis, Niš, Svrljig, Koželj, Ravno, Prizren, and Skoplje. All these teritories were predominantly Serbian-populated. He met the Holy Roman Emperor Friedrich I the Barbarosa in 1189, in Niš.
Nemanja finished his magnificent endowment of the Monastery of the Holy Virgin the Benefactor-Studenica Monastery on the river Studenica in 1190. The monastery church is built out of white marble. This monastery is honored as the mother of all Serbian churches. Nemanja also introduced Orthodox Christianity into Duklja. Soon Duklja became, as much as Raška, predominantly Orthodox.
New Emperor Isaac II Angelos 1190, raised a large army against the Serbs and defeated them in the battle of Ravno. Soon a peace treaty was signed and Nemanja gained independence, but the Byzantine Empire was given back Niš, Ravno, and Skoplje. Nemanja's second son and heir Stefan, future Serbian king (later Saint Simon the Monk), married the emperor's niece Eudoxia and received the title of Sebastokrator, second highest after Emperor.
Stefan's father-in-law Alexius became emperor as Alexius III Angelos (1195-1202). Nemanja called a State Concile (Serbian: Државни Сабор) on March 25, 1195. He abdicated in favour of Stefan. He gave his eldest son vukan principalities Duklja and travunija and counties Hvosno and Toplica. After abdicaton Nemanja took monastic vows as monk Simeon in Studenica Monastery. His wife Ana took monastic vows in female Monastery of Holy Mother of God in Ras. She was taken monastic name Anstasija. She is also canonised as Saint Mother Anastasia of Serbia.
Life as monk
After two years Simeon joined his son Sava, who was monk of Monastery Vatopedi in Mount Athos. Two of them soon visited all monasteries of athos and gave large donations to each. Their relative emperor alexius gave them ruined monastery Hilandar 1198. He also published Imperial chrisobulion in wich is proclaimed that Hilandar is monastery for monks from Serbian Nation. Simeon's succesor Stefan also published Hilandar Charter in wich he granted a large goods in Serbia to new monastery. Hilandar soon became one of the most importnant centers of Serbian Orthodoxy.
Last years of his life were ascetic. Sava described last years of his father's life in his Life of saint Simeon. Simeon died in front of icon of Theotokos Hodegetria wich he brought from Serbia. He died Februry 13, 1199.
One year after his death Simeon is canonisated by comunity of Mount Athos. Reason for canonisation was fact that holy oil seeped from his relics. It is writen that this miracle didn't ocured in past three centuries. Even today his relics are giving sweet smel. Serbian meadevel writers described numerous miracles of Saint Simeon. His feast day is February 13 in Julian calendar.
His relics were brought to Serbia by Saint Sava in order to end civil war between Stefan and Vukan. Sava put his father's relics in Studenica Monastery. He recociliated his brothers on their father's thomb. Later in Studenica was put relics of his sons Stefan and Vukan, his wife Ana, and his grandson king Radoslav.
St. Sava wrote Life of Saint Simeon and Service to Saint Simeon. There are another two Lives of Saint Simeon first from Stefan and another from Sav's byographer Domentijan.
St. Simeon fonded monasteries of Saint Nicholas-Kuršumlija 1165, Holy Theotokos on river Kosanica1165, Saint George-Đurđevi Stupovi 1171, Holy Theotokos the Benefactor-Studenica 1190. He is claimed to be founder of Monastery of Saint Nicholac in Kazanovići, Female monastery of Holy Mother of God in Ras, Church of Holy Mother of God on the river Bistrica.
When he was Lord of Skoplje and Niš, he rebuilt monasteries of Holz Archangel Michael in Skoplje , and Sait Panteleymon in Niš. He was giving a large donations to this churches and monasteries: Church of Holy Sepulchure in Jerusalem, Church of Saint John the Baptist also in Jerusalem, Church of Saint Theodosius in Desert near Bethlehem, Hagia Sophia in Constantinopole, Church of Saint Apostles Peter and Paul in Rome, Monastery of Theotokos Evergethide, Churh of Saint Demetrios in Thessalonika, Church of Saint Nicholas in Bari.

my favorite APs
this was my response to mtf's giveaway question as to what were favorite AP pics and why... initially it was kept to non-RO and ROO APs but he has since capitulated and it is now open to all APs :)
but since offshores are now allowed...
my grail one popped up as well. as to why... I would say because of its interesting past, from an undesired LE of 500 pieces obtainable in the US$15k range to a relatively highly desired one in the hot LE market going for about 3-4 times that perhaps? precursor to other LE ROOs and other black ROO LEs (there will be more of course trumps that light, black-ish watch every day of the week and twice on sundays just mho of course

Picked up Bird of Passage after a long hiatus. My initial hate for it has disappeared so it's working up quickly.
The back is completely finished, what you're seeing is half the front (it's worked left to right).

Ed Davey announces 'four core tariff' plan
Energy companies will be able to offer only four tariffs each for gas and electricity under government plans to get customers a better deal on energy.
The government says it wants customers placed on the cheapest available price by summer 2014 at the latest.
However, ministers admitted they could not guarantee all households would see their energy bills cut.
Business and consumer groups warned the plans could mean some of the cheapest tariffs on offer disappear.
Labour welcomed plans to make tariffs simpler, but said the government also needed to reform the energy market and create a new watchdog to force companies to pass on price cuts.
The proposals, which are expected to be included in the forthcoming Energy Bill, have been put out for consultation until January.
'Bamboozled '
They include forcing energy firms to offer just four core tariffs for both gas and electricity - a fixed price for a fixed term and a standard variable rate, with two others based on different criteria such as payment method or whether renewable energy was a factor.
Energy suppliers would have to offer one price for each of the four tariffs, although they could still have discounts for dual fuel or lower cost payment methods such as direct debit.
Customers on "poor value" out-of-date tariffs, who are paying a higher rate than their supplier's cheapest standard tariff, will be switched to the cheaper rate.
Energy Secretary Ed Davey said households will be given personalised information from their supplier on their bills about the cheapest tariff the supplier offers for their payment method and the cheapest tariff overall.
Mr Davey told BBC News he couldn't guarantee all customers would see their bills cut, but the majority of people would benefit and it would be "easier" to get lower bills.
Addressing MPs later, Mr Davey said a lot of people were on out-of-date tariffs and "bringing them down is going to save some of those people, indeed some of the most vulnerable, money and that is the right thing to do".
The move would boost customer switching, he added: "Because there will be fewer tariffs and they will be simpler, it will make it a lot easier for people to compare and will actually help competition."
The government said it was building on recent proposals by the energy regulator Ofgem, which has been looking into pricing for some time.
Ofgem welcomed the move and said the proposals "will put an end to consumers being bamboozled by complex tariffs and deliver choice that consumers easily understand".
Currently most people buy their gas and electricity from just six big suppliers, although there are smaller suppliers, amid a vast selection of tariffs.
Renewable targets
The structure of the charges can vary depending on payment method (by direct debit, pre-payment meter, or credit transfer such as cheque), on whether it is an internet-only tariff, which part of the country the customer lives in, if the deal involves a fixed price, when the deal was launched, how long it lasts, and so on.
Business and consumer groups warned the plans could mean energy users paying more.
Adam Scorer, director of policy at Consumer Focus, said it was a "sensible move" but there was "a risk of unintended consequences and in particular a general levelling up of prices".
And the Institute of Directors said restricting choice would simply allow energy companies to increase their lowest tariff, ensuring a higher minimum price for consumers.
"Instead, the government should be promoting competition and making it easier for new companies to enter the energy market."
Angela Knight, chief executive of Energy UK, which represents the major suppliers, said any fall in energy bills could be limited because about half a bill is made up of costs other than energy - such as upgrading infrastructure, insulating homes and environmental levies.
Shadow climate change secretary Caroline Flint said: "The cheapest energy deal in an uncompetitive market will still not be a good deal. Unless the government really reforms the energy market, there's nothing to stop the energy companies just putting up the prices of all their tariffs.
"The time has come for a complete overhaul of our energy market."

1997 agricultural census underway (SA), Mar 1997

1997 agricultural census underway (SA)
The 1997 Agricultural Census, conducted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, began this week with the mailout of 150,000 forms to Australia's primary producers.
Statistics from the annual Agricultural Census provide an updated picture of the performance and production levels of Australia's rural industries.
Information obtained is used to formulate rural policies at the national, State and local levels. The data also provides the opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of existing agricultural programs, and measure changes in production of various commodities.
Questions in the Agricultural Census have been developed in consultation with primary producer and rural industry organizations, government agencies and research groups, to highlight the role of farmers in the Australian economy.
New questions this year ask details of quantity of water used for irrigation and the total number of sheep and lambs shorn and wool produced.
Regular information from the census includes the assessment of land use, stock numbers and quantities produced for a large range of agricultural crops, fruits and vegetables for the 12 months to 31 March 1996.
Information from last year's census showed, for example, that South Australia had 13.6 million sheep (about 11% of Australia's sheep population in 1995-1996). The State harvested 395.8 thousand tonnes of wine grapes during 1995-96, just over 50 per cent of Australia's total.
Farmers are asked to return their completed forms within two weeks, to give the ABS time to collate preliminary figures for release in May. These early figures are essential for Commonwealth and State Government planning, and are used extensively by industry organizations as input to policy discussions.
Most of the required information will be in existing farm records. However, ABS officers are available to assist farmers in completing the forms. As with all ABS surveys, no government or private organization will have access to the individual information supplied by primary producers.
For Editors
Listed below are the figures for the main crops and stock production in South Australia to year ended 31 March 1996 (i.e. the results of last year's Agricultural Census).

Top2500 Bloggers Reset Yesterday

NYY/CIN doubleheader tomorrow
If I remember correctly this used to be 1 AB or more now it's 2 AB or less. I guess if they come in for a Defensice Switch and have 3 or more ABs that is to many chances for Pinched OR 1 AB Wonders.
That's the way I look at it. Most starters, most games will see at least 3 ABs. If someone comes in the game late and gets 3 ABs, that's nothing special IMO.
As a blogger I was wondering what place I am in with a streak of 9. Username is Heyya.
We only post for people in our own group. You can join the Bloggers Group. Just click on the Groups menu when you get to your picks page and join. When you do join, your streak in the group will be zero though your BTS streak is now 9 with S.Smith's hits. You can find yourself on page 75 of the Standings if you look before they are updated.

Baltimore (plus 9.5) at Denver, Saturday, 4:30 p.m.
Scott Reid: Did you hear the big news? Ben Affleck was snubbed by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences (also known as Club Weinstein) yet again. His true-to-life political thriller Argo was nominated for Best Picture, yet his skills as a director were abjectly ignored by Seth MacFarlane (who, I like to believe, is personally picking all the winners this year – go American Dad!). How this could have happened is currently being debated hotly by fans around the world who don't still resent Affleck's performance in Daredevil (a list that does not include yours truly – seriously, Maggie Smith would have made a more convincing Matt Murdock). My view is that it's payback from Hollywood's Canadian mafia. While a fun watch, Argo effectively reduces the heroic Canadian role played during the Iranian hostage crisis to an inglorious sideshow. Do you really think Canadian-born Academy heavyweights like Norman Jewison, David Foster and Tricia Helfer (hot Cylons can be very patriotic) would just let this slide?
Don't be naïve, people. The maple leaf is an inviting example of vascular plant life but, when angered, it can be fierce and unforgiving. Too bad the same can't be said for Joe Flacco. I'd like to predict a whumping upset is in the offing for this game. But I can't. The Football Gods clearly want to see a Manning/Brady mashup and they will not be denied (because, as the Greeks taught us long ago, Gods are only denied when they try to have sex with women while disguised as waterfowl). I have a feeling it will be bit tighter than the odds-makers predict. I'm going to take the points but I don't think Baltimore has enough to win outright. After this game, John Elway's toothy smile ought to be visible from outer space. Which, coincidentally, is where Tim Tebow's chances of ever playing quarterback in the NFL again should be drifting through. Pick: Baltimore.
Scott Feschuk: Call me a maverick but I'm all in favour of the big protest that's sweeping the nation. And I too am willing to join in a debilitating hunger strike in order to see critical goals achieved and important progress made. For too long, we as a society have been forced to live with the shame and scandal of standing by and doing nothing as a small number of our fellow citizens have been forced, year after year, to endure this:
No longer. Join me, people. Our time is now: Idol No More. Pick: Denver.
Green Bay (plus 3) at San Francisco, Saturday, 8 p.m.
Reid: Facing his team's most pivotal game of the year, Jim Harbaugh waited quite a while before announcing that his field goal kicker will be David Akers rather than Billy Cundiff, Jean Van de Velde or every Adam Sandler film since The Waterboy. To say I'm a "little" nervous about this situation would be like saying Brent Musburger is a "little" hot beneath his sansabelt for AJ McCarron's girlfriend.
It was a classic coaching conundrum: Do you go with Akers – the guy who missed 4 out of his last 10 kicks and shanked away two wins during the regular season? Or should you opt for the unfortunately named Cundiff (victim of 73% of jokes involving the words "Billy Hunt" since 1984) – who blew his team's chance to move into OT in last year's AFC final? Sweet bearded Jesus! These are our choices? Is Scott Norwood tied up (I mean literally tied up – I know that the Feschuk family held him hostage in a windowless basement apartment until 2007). The Niners made their bones this year with a commanding season opener over the Pack. However, Green Bay has really settled down in the past few weeks – especially on defense and that Rodgers fellow is pretty capable. But fear not – just like Anne Hathaway. the Niners have winner written all over them. Justin Smith's return has me smiling – he forces Green Bay to stay honest and frees up brother Aldon for a couple sacks at least. And let's face it – this year's San Francisco has met every truly big test – Green Bay and New England – with a killer performance. Two weeks to plan. Two weeks to heal. Two weeks to remember to go for it on fourth down unless you're inside the 20. I wonder if AJ McCarron's mom will be in the crowd. Here's hoping. Pick: San Francisco.
Feschuk: I'd like to come to Brent's defence and, if possible, his next showing of stag films. Sure, Musburger went a little overboard. Sure, it probably wasn't necessary to tell the male children of America that they'd better subject themselves to the unavoidable head trauma of being a quarterback if ever they want to put their pee-pee in a pretty girl (I'm paraphrasing). And sure, we could have done without all the grunting. But he meant it as a compliment! An over-enthusiastic, deeply disturbing compliment about a woman more than 50 years younger than himself! What could be more natural? In other news, I know she's fairly pretty and everything but check out the floor in the photo below.
Pick Green Bay.
Seattle (plus 2.5) at Atlanta, Sunday, 1 p.m.
Reid: Seattle must lose. That is all. Other than this important thought: I really miss Saturday morning kids shows.
Pick: Atlanta.
Feschuk: I'd love to have been in the room to hear the pitch for that show. Why? For two reasons. First, because it was the 1970s and everyone in the meeting would have been stoned on heroin, leaving the entire muffin tray for yours truly. And second, because I'm intrigued by the fact that having a show about a regular Bigfoot raising a human child just wasn't considered sexy enough – they had to amp it up by making Bigfoot some sort of hirsute superhero: He can throw two-ton boulders! He can run at 50 miles per hour! He doesn't use conditioner yet somehow no tangles! Pick: Seattle.
Houston (plus 9.5) at New England, Sunday, 4:30 p.m.
Reid: If the New England Patriots were any more confident, Tom Brady would have to change his name to Reggie Mantle.
Which begs the question: Who on that team is Archie? Belichick is 100 per cent Juggie (hoodie stands in for the beanie cap, all-consuming love of football in place of hamburgers and, of course, there's something definitely off with his sexual identity). Hernandez and Gronk are indisputably Betty and Veronica (Gronk puts out) and Robert Kraft is the living embodiment of Mr. Weatherbee. Truth is the Pats don't have an obvious Archie Andrews – which is why I believe, in the end, they'll fail to win the Super Bowl. But against Houston? Just as sure as Midge knows why they really call him Moose, the Texans are going to lose by double digits. Pick: New England.
Feschuk: I think the more important question is: Who on the Texans isn't Spazzy McFumblenuts? I don't know what's happened to that team, but after a dominating start they now seem about as intimidating as a dachshund in a sweater vest.
Pick: New England.

Add the chorizo to the shallots, turn up the heat (but not too much) and colour a little. When the orange oil is released into the pan, add the tomatoes and a good pinch of salt. Stir over a medium heat – the tomatoes should literally melt in about 10 mins. If the sauce is not bubbling, turn up the heat a little. Add 100ml water and bring to the boil. Gently simmer for a few mins more.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta. Add the prawns to the sauce, bring back to the boil and cook for 1 min until the prawns change colour. Drain the pasta and stir into the sauce with the spring onion whites. Cook and stir for 1 min. Serve sprinkled with the spring onion greens.

Through the support of alumni and supporters, the University has enabled over 600 students from disadvantaged backgrounds to complete the Academic Enrichment Programme (including a week-long residential school), 439 talented students to take up an Access to Birmingham (A2B) scholarship and place at the University, and funded over 200 internships. This year's reception, which was the fourth event of its kind, was kindly hosted by Lee Nuttall (LLB Law, 1987), Partner at the law offices of Wragge & Co LLP in Birmingham. Upon arrival, students were given an introduction to Wragge & Co and an insight into corporate responsibility by Lorna Gavin (LLB Law, 1990), Head of Corporate Responsibility. Students were then taken on a tour of the offices led by current graduate trainees. The event gave alumni and supporters a unique opportunity to meet some of the students who have benefited from the Student Support Programmes. Through speeches and networking, alumni and supporters were able to hear of the students' experiences at Birmingham, their future career aspirations and how these programmes have assisted them. Students also benefitted from advice and work placement offers given to them by alumni in attendance. Jacqueline Minor (LLB Law, 1977; LLM Law, 1986): "My time at Birmingham really opened up the world to me and I believe all of my subsequent career was determined by what I studied there. It sounds cheesy, but I felt it was time to give something back to other students and to offer them the same opportunities I had. I like the immediacy of it, the fact that you have contact with the student who benefits and it's a great pleasure to see somebody make that progression through university and to arrive at graduation and to go out into the world." Sitara Johns (2nd year Law student an A2B recipient) "Thanks to the support of donors, I was able to complete a month's internship in a family law practice in Vancouver last summer. Before I took up the internship, I was very interested in family law and I was also very interested in practicing abroad, both of which I was able to fulfil with this internship which was an incredible opportunity which has really and truly been invaluable."

I go to our registrar web page and add subdomain skeleti. I also redirect this subdomain to the same IP address as the main domain lazyhead.com.
I also set virtual host at httpd.conf. I use:
Problem is, that even if I try to open lazyheads.com or skeleti.lazyheads.com I still get the same page. It looks like the my config changes does nothing to the server behavior. Anyone knows what am I doing wrong?NameVirtualHost 18.104.22.168:80

About this blog…
"This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque 'salon' with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West "saloon" with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven." – Fr. Z

As for Latin…
"But if, in any layman who is indeed imbued with literature, ignorance of the Latin language, which we can truly call the 'catholic' language, indicates a certain sluggishness in his love toward the Church, how much more fitting it is that each and every cleric should be adequately practiced and skilled in that language!" - Pius XI
"Let us realize that this remark of Cicero (Brutus 37, 140) can be in a certain way referred to [young lay people]: 'It is not so much a matter of distinction to know Latin as it is disgraceful not to know it.'" - St. John Paul II

Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

International Astronomical Union entitled "Multichannel Observations
and Studies of the Active Galactic Nuclei" dedicated to Armenian great
astronomer Beniamin Margaryan's 100th anniversary, which will be held
in Armenia on October 7-11, 2013. As the Armenian Astronomical Society
informed "Armenpress" this information has been spread on December 1,
as a result of which the future participants will be registered and
present their works to be discussed and adopted by the Organizing
Committee of the conference.
It is expected that around 200 participants will arrive in Armenia
from different parts of the world. 18 astronomers from USA, Japan,
Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Ireland, Australia, Argentina
and Armenia are included in Scientific Organizing Committee. 38 of
invited speakers have already confirmed their participation.
IAU Conferences are the most prestigious events in the astronomical
world, where the most important astronomical problems are discussed and
usually are attended by the best specialists. In the conference, which
will be held in Armenia will be discussed active galactic nuclei (AGN)
multichannel observations made by the ground and space telescopes,
AGN structure and theoretical models, separate AGN and the issues of
their alteration, the activation phenomenon, interactions and future
large-scale projects of galaxies containing AGN, their surroundings,
AGN viewed in galaxy systems (multiple galaxies, groups and heaps).

In Armenia astronomy is quite developed and attracts international
interest, which is why the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory after V.
Hambartsumyan of Armenian National Academy of Sciences was recognized
as a regional astronomical center by a decision of International
Astronomical Union, Director of Byurakan Observatory Hayk Harutyunyan
told Panorama.am.
"A few years ago International Astronomical Union decided to establish
several regional astronomical centers aimed at assisting countries in
a region if astronomy is not at a high level of development in that
country. A center was set up in South Africa. We proposed setting up
a regional astronomical center in Armenia," Hayk Harutyunyan said.
The recognition of Byurakan Observatory as a regional astronomical
center will allow Armenian experts to organize workshops and courses,
invite foreign scholars and implement projects with the financial
assistance of International Astronomical Union , the director said
noting that the development level of astronomy in the given country
is also assessed when international scientific community declares a
country a regional astronomic center.
"On the whole, international scientific bodies and experts consider
Armenian astronomy quite developed - Armenia ranks 34th-35th in the
world by the development level of its astronomy, while our country
is in 130th-140th position by its population. Armenia is regarded
an astronomical superpower in this sense," the director of Byurakan
Observatory said.
Discussing the fact that a decision was made to draft a strategic
program and reform the management system of Byurakan Observatory after
it has received a new status, Hayk Harutyunyan said: "The breakup of
the Soviet Union negatively affected astronomy and we are trying to
gradually reach the former level. The main goal of the strategy is
to organize science in such a way that the existing opportunities
and human resources can be used most efficiently".
The director said that despite the current problems, Armenian astronomy
attracts plenty of interest from abroad, with approximately 30 foreign
specialists visiting Armenia every year.
Posted 04 January 2017 - 11:33 AM
(Phys.org)—Astronomers from the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory in Armenia have discovered a strong outburst of the embedded young stellar object (YSO) designated UKIDSS-J185318.36+012454.5. This newly detected event could provide important insights for the understanding of eruptive variability of young stars. The researchers presented their discovery in a paper published Dec. 30 on the arXiv preprint server.
UKIDSS-J185318.36+012454.5 is located in the vicinity of the IRAS 18507+0121 source and probably belongs to the massive star-forming region associated with GAL 034.4+00.23 HII region. The object is at least 5,000 light years away from the Earth and its neighborhood contains massive protostars with an age of about 100,000 years, as well as a low-mass stellar population approximately 1 million years old. The stellar object was classified as an intermediate mass YSO less than 100,000 years old.
Recently, a team of researchers led by Elena Nikoghosyan has combed through the data and images provided by the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope (UKIRT) in Hawaii to search for evidence of outbursts in star-forming regions. They used the archival infrared and submillimeter data from UKIRT Galactic Plane Survey (UKIDSS GPS) and found that an outburst occurred in UKIDSS-J185318.36+012454.5 in the period of 2004-2006.
"UKIRT Galactic Plane Survey is a deep survey with good space resolution. Therefore, it provides very useful information for researchers who study star forming regions. In particular, for detection of UKIDSS-J185318.36+012454.5 outburst, UKIRT Galactic Plane Survey was the basic source of information," Nikoghosyan told Phys.org.
According to the paper, the amplitude of brightness of the detected outburst is at least five mag. The object remained at this level of brightness until 2014.
The results of the research allowed the scientists to re-classify UKIDSS-J185318.36+012454.5 as an eruptive variable with mixed characteristics, namely a MNor-type object, and Nikoghosyan emphasized the significance of the study.
"Eruptions of pre-main sequence stellar objects are rare events, thus a new outburst is always noteworthy. And I think that the discovery of a new eruptive variable UKIDSS-J185318.36+012454.5 with a so strong outburst (delta K > 5 mag) was a big success," she said.
The authors of the paper also sought the most plausible explanation for eruptive variability of young stars. They noted that several physical mechanisms, such as rotation, cool or hot spots, accretion-driven wind and outflow can explain the near-infrared variability, but these mechanisms often produce short-term variability with amplitude that is not expected to exceed one mag in the K band.
"In our opinion, all of the proposed explanations of this phenomena to date (eruptive variability of young stars) do not explain it completely, most likely due to lack of information. With respect to this object, we can only assume that this outburst corresponds to the transition between two evolution stages: Class 0 (no optical and near-infrared emission) and Class I (generally optically obscured). But this is only an assumption," Nikoghosyan concluded.
The researchers now plan further observations of UKIDSS-J185318.36+012454.5. However, these studies could only be conducted in collaboration with scientists from other countries due to the fact that in Armenia, there is no opportunity to observe this object in the infrared range.

More information: New eruptive variable in the massive star-forming region associated with IRAS 18507+0121 source, arXiv:1612.09190 [astro-ph.SR] arxiv.org/abs/1612.09190
Aims. We report the discovery of a strong outburst of the embedded young stellar object (YSO), namely UKIDSS-J185318.36+012454.5, located in the star-forming region associated with IRAS 18507+0121 source and GAL 034.4+00.23 HII region. Methods. Using the archival photometric data and images we determined the amplitude and the epoch of the outburst, as well as the evolution stage and the basic parameters of the object. Results. According to the near and mid-infrared colors and spectral energy distribution, we classify the object as an intermediate-mass young stellar object (YSO) with Class 0/I evolution stage. The outburst occurred in the period of 2004-2006. The amplitude of brightness is as least Ks = 5.0 mag. The summation of the photometric and spectral data does not allow to classify UKIDSS-J185318.36+012454.5 as FUor or EXor. We can consider it as an eruptive variable with mixed characteristics or MNor type object.

Women helping healthier men to evolve
Evolution of the sexes Men are evolving to have healthier genes thanks to their genetic relationships with women, new research suggests.
Although, say the researchers, the effect of culture could well be drowning out this genetic signal.
The research, by Dr Stephen Stearns, of Yale University, and colleagues, reveals that genetic connections between males and females strongly affect each others' responses to natural selection.
"Because those connections exist, men respond differently evolutionarily to natural selection than they would if they were not connected to females. In this case they respond in a way that improves their health," says Stearns.
"Males are under selection to get healthier - to have lower total cholesterol, lower blood glucose and lower blood pressure because of the effects coming through females, not because of effects acting directly on them."
Genes that influence bodily traits are under different selection pressures in women and men.
So what impact do these different pressures have on traits given that, over the generations, genes spend roughly half their time in males, and half their time in females?
To explore this, Stearns and colleagues analysed a number of traits in 1500 family trees, containing 15,000 people taken from a long term medical study in the United States.
Their study, reported today in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B looked at traits including height, weight, blood pressure and glucose, total cholesterol, and age at first birth, all of which are affected by our genes.
First the researchers measured how each trait affected the number of offspring men and women had. This showed the degree of evolutionary advantage each trait gave individual people.
For example, women with low cholesterol levels, lower blood pressure and lower blood glucose, had more children. But the number of offspring had by males was not affected by these traits.
Next, Stearn and colleagues looked at how the whole network of traits interacted and actually played out in the family trees.
They found the frequency of 'healthy' genes was higher in men related to women with these genes.
Stearns says the findings, supported by other unpublished research he has done, show that men are evolving towards having lower cholesterol, lower blood pressure and lower blood glucose, despite there being no apparent selective advantage to them.
"The main threat factors for heart disease and diabetes are all being selected for in males in a positive direction," he says.
The study also found men also influenced women's evolution, but the effect was not as strong, says Stearn.
Stearn says the study does not shed any light on the mechanism by which the genetic connections between men and women leads to these outcomes.
The culture effect
Professor Rob Brooks of University of New South Wales who has studied co-evolution of males and females in insects welcomes the new study.
"It's wonderful," he says. "The novel thing about the paper is it's done on humans."
"They've tapped into a wonderful long-term medical study that's got the pedigree that allows you to get into the genetic information."
Brooks says culture can add an enormous layer of complexity to such studies.
Stearns says he and colleagues tried as much as they could to control for the influence of culture in the study.
But, he says, culture could still be affecting the outcome of the study.
Certainly, cultural factors such as diet and exercise may well be cancelling out the effect any genetic trend towards healthier genes in men.
"It is profoundly important that culture is changing rapidly," says Stearns. "Culture is actually changing the selection pressures on biological traits and that is causing an increasing divergence between culture and biology."

The 2013 edition of the Automation Marketplace feature has been published by Library Journal, both in the April 2013 issue and on Digital Shift. I have authored this feature since 2012, chronicling more than a decade of progress in the library technology industry.
In this time of transition of the library automation industry, stakes are high for the vendors that are creating innovative—or even transformative—products and competing to bring these products first to the market. Establishing momentum early is essential in the library arena, which is attentive to the successes of a vendor's peers and risk averse.
In the library services platform arena, OCLC's WorldShare Management Services, Innovative's Sierra, and Ex Libris's Alma hit the streets first and have already begun aggressive sales cycles, seeing positive results. Serials Solutions finds itself in the position of urging its customers to wait for Intota, in stark contrast to its early entry into the web-scale discovery arena wit Summon. The Kuali OLE project continues to make great strides but has extended its time line for delivery by a year.
Developers of integrated library systems (ILSes) have executed ambitious development agendas to extend and integrate new services into their products to challenge the notion that innovation can be accomplished only in the newly minted systems. Seamless ebook integration, web-based interfaces for staff and patrons, and built-in social networking capabilities will soon be standard fare for many ILS products.
Recent investment activity also seems to be centered on strengthening product development. The new investors in Innovative Interfaces and Ex Libris show early signs of expanding capacity for creating new technologies with the potential for long-term gains and not slashing costs for short-term gains. Especially among the large companies, the number of personnel allocated to development is on the rise.

Patio Picnics
I've really been LOVING Spring this year. We've spent a lot of time outside lately, our new house has a ton of landscaping that was thankfully, already here when we got here, and EVERYTHING has been blooming - we have trumpet plants, roses, pink flowered bushes, irises, Bradford Pear trees, etc. It's been gorgeous!
But...my favorite nights are those where we sit out on our patio, eat dinner, and talk! It doesn't hurt to have the most handsome POOL BOY ever too:)!!!

Boot Camp Update
- I feel more confident about myself (at least I'm WORKING on my body, not just sitting around complaining that I could be this...or that, or used to be this...or that).
- I'm eating better since there's NO WAY I'm gonna spoil all my hard work, and I do mean HARD, by eating a bunch of junk.
- It's weird but like I said, I have noticed that I think clearer, I get more done during the day and stay on track - this could be because of the eating better too.
- It's kind of been an awakening into getting back to what is good for me in my life - a little less tv, a little more outdoors, and reading, organizing, etc.
- My energy level (besides right at 4pm) is MAGNIFICIENT!
- I'm encouraged by how I'm SLOWLY seeing my body start to change and "remember" (that's muscle memory) how it's supposed to look:)
- And...best of all, since I'm doing it at 5:45 in the am, I am DONE for the day by 7:00 - that's the best feeling ever!!!!

Boot Camp
I am excited but also scared about the waking up part. I plan to be totally ready the night before so I won't have to think too much, and will be able to get up, put my workout clothes on, and get there! Getting there is half the battle you know!!!!
So...do you guys have any suggestions on where I can find cheap workout clothes - I DO NOT like to spend money in this area, and I WILL NOT pay $25.00 for a workout shirt or shorts! Call me cheap, or thrifty...whatever, I'd much rather wait and spend the money on my new clothes I will hopefully have to buy when its all said and done:) Anyway...wish me luck!

Bunco and Bonbons!
I went to a fabulous party at my church this weekend! It was called Bunco and Bonbons and I'm kicking myself that I didn't get any pics of the decor. Anyway, imagine pink, black, and white decor. There were huge dice made out of cardboard boxes wrapped with pink, black, and white paper, with dice dots painted on, pink paper good, Bunco score cards, table mats for rolling the dice on, etc! On the serving tables were chocolate fountains with all the fixings - angel food cake, marshmallows, strawberries, pretzels, etc. and TONS of other desserts - each lady was asked to bring a dessert. There were over 175 ladies there so you can imagine the choices of sweets. YUMOLA!!!
Here's Me, Jae (my sis), and my Mom

Easter Sunday at Mom and Dad's
Saturday we attended our awesome church and an awesome service, complete with that song "I Will Rise" I talked about, a sermon on how if this was your last day, do you know where you would spend eternity?, and more INCREDIBLE music!!! While we were in service the kids enjoyed lessons on the resurrection with puppet skits, etc. and an Easter Egg Hunt. Since we went to our church Sat. we were able to visit the church we grew up in and surprised my mom and dad by going to their church, our "home church". After church on Sunday we went over to Mom and Dad's for lunch:

A First
They had their first day in the pool last Saturday! The pool in our backyard! We made a big deal out of it being "their very own pool"! They were giddy - and had not a care in the world that it was FREEZING!!! Can't wait to spend many more days here:) I had to get it on camera, so I can one day compare this pic with those of them as preteens, teenagers, etc.

May you be filled with Christ's amazing love this weekend! And may you realize all he did for you long ago on this very day to make a way for you to live life everlasting!
We will be going to church tonight, then to my mom and dad's tomorrow for Easter lunch. I am excited to reflect on all Christ did for me and enjoy being with my family! Our church praise team is singing the song I WILL RISE by Chris Tomlin - click on it on the right on my playlist and TURN IT UP, it'll make you cry!

Easter at New Creation Preschool
*** but more importantly than all this, I'm so LOVING the fact that she's also been learning a ton this week about how Jesus died on the cross, was put in a tomb (with a BIG stone), then the angel said, "Jesus is Alive", and now He's in heaven! - her words, along with lots of questions about how he died on that cross, got into that tomb, how the rock got rolled away, and how he went up to heaven - and how she can get there:) I have LOVED having these conversations with her!

Little Kindergartener!
On Wednesday I registered my sweet baby girl for Kindergarten. I can't even describe to you all the emotions that surround me as I think about this. But, when we walked into that school, I was excited!!! Everyone was so sweet and I can't wait to go buy school supplies, smell a new box of crayons, etc. Until then, I'm gonna soak up each day that she is still my baby, well, she'll ALWAYS be my baby, but you moms out there know what I mean! She's getting so big!

Brothers In Arms: Furious Four was a weird departure from Gearbox's venerable WW2 series, so weird that it ended up being spun off into its own thing, leaving the BiA franchise behind altogether.
Which you'd think would leave it back where we've been for a while—with no proper Brothers in Arms game on the horizon—but according to Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford, that's not the case.
"We love Brothers in Arms", he told IGN in an interview yesterday. "The other pledge is that there will be an authentic Brothers in Arms game. Again, we haven't announced that yet, but I'm really excited about where that's going too. We'll announce these things in due course."
Um... you just announced it.
"There's a lot of neat things we have going on. When you're in pre-production and you're in these iterations, it's kind of reckless. I don't want to get in a spot. I want to avoid a situation where, five years from now it's 'wow, this game's been in development for five years.' That's why I don't announce things until we know what they are. It's not fair to hold us accountable for a process that's designed to get to a quality end that's good for the customer. We love Brothers in Arms and we're committed to more time in that space. As we get to places where it makes sense to announce things in that regard, we'll do that too."
Can't wait until five years from now, when people point to this interview and say "wow, this game's been in development for five years."
