The Karl Johans gate is the main shopping street of Oslo. The street connects the Royal Castle with the central station. The center of Oslo is located at Stortinget, this is where you will see the famous billboard of the "Freia" chocolate factory.
After the union with Sweden ended, Norway's independence should be demonstrated by a representative building. 1918 Arnstein Arneberg and Markus Poulsson won the architectural competition. In 1950 the 66 m high brick building was opened. The main hall is covered with beutiful murals of the history of Norway.
The former harbor district has been transformed into a residential and leisure center since the 1980s. The new harbor promenade is home to shops, shopping malls and restaurants with views on the "Oslofjord" and the famous town hall. "Aker Brygge" is a very popular district for going out with many bars and clubs.
The fort guarded the Oslofjord since about 1300. In 1315 the castle became the royal residence of Haakon V. In the following centuries the "Akershus festning" was repeatedly extended. In 1716 the castle survived the siege by the Swedes. Today the great halls are among the main attractions of the Akershus Fortress.
Christian IV King of Denmark and Norway decided to rebuilt Oslo after a fire in 1624. The city named Christiania was built with rectangular city blocks. In 1990 the artist Wenche Gulbransen set up the sculpture of a glove, which symbolizes the founding of the city.
The Neoclassical "National Theater" of Henrik Bull was opened in 1899. The house is considered to be the best theater in Norway. The Theater is located in the park "Studenterlunden".
The parliament building "Stortinget" is home to the Norwegian National Assembly. The yellowish clinker building of the Swedish architect Emil Victor Langlet was opened in 1866. In 1950 the construction at Akersgata was built. The Norwegian Parliament has 169 seats for deputies.
The "Royal Palace" stands on a hill above the city. The construction was begun under King Karl Johan in 1836 and completed in 1848. The palace is the residence of the Royal Family. The "Royal Palace" is open to the public in summer time, when the Royal Family is on vacation.
The construction of the cathedral was begun in 1694 and in 1720 the "Domkirke" was completed. The ceiling painting by Hugo Louis Mohrs was created around 1950. Mette-Maritt and Crown Prince Haakon were married here. In front of the church is a nice market square.
The "Oslo Opera House" floats like an iceberg in the fjord. The building of white Carrara marble and glass was voted the best cultural building in the world in 2008. Like the Alexandria Library, the "Oslo Opera House" was designed by the Norwegian architects of Snøhetta.
The district of "Grünerløkka" is quite generous with its charm. A really nice neighborhood with many cafes and small, designed shops and restaurants. The most beautiful part is between Olaf Ryes plass and Birkelunden. "Grünerløkka" is popular among students and cool hipsters.
The renovated "Oslo Mathallen" is a successful mixture of market hall and restaurant. Many products of local producers can be consumed directly in the market hall. The "Mathallen" is a good place for lunch.
The top attraction of Oslo is the sculpture park of Gustav Vigeland in "Frognerparken". Between 1924 and 1943, the sculptor created over 200 sculptures of granite and bronze. The theme is the life of man, from childhood to death, with all life phases and feelings. The center of the complex is the 17 m high monolith, a granite column consisting of 121 figures. The artist has worked on these sculptures to handle his unhappy childhood.
The famous ski jumping hill of "Holmenkollen" is located on a 500 m high mountain in the west of Oslo. Even in the summer, you can watch ski jumpers fly. You can test your courage and jump from the "Holmenkollen", only secured by a steel rope.

Fatigue analysis
FP90 replied to FP90's topic in Altair MotionView, Altair MotionSolve and Altair Inspire (Motion)Hi Prakash, Thank you for answering I want to reproduce a drum test of a wheelchair in MS, but the analysis is very long, as i said before. The resulting loads applied on the wheelchair can be considered as random loads, so i was thinking to extract the PSD of each load spectrum (should be 10 different loads conditions) and perform a Random Fatigue analysis using Optistruct. But i have not 2017 version so i didn't find a tutorial about that. Is it possible to find a tutorial for previous versions? thank you
Hi to everybody, i would like to perform a fatigue analysis using this method: -run the dynamic analysis in Motionsolve in order to extract the load spectrum -run the fatigue analysis in Optistruct using that load spectrum the problem is that the dynamic analysis needs 150000 seconds, and this means an enormous amount of time in Motion solve,it's almost impossible. So is there any other way i can perform this type of analysis? Thank you.
modeling wheel on road
FP90 replied to FP90's topic in Altair MotionView, Altair MotionSolve and Altair Inspire (Motion)hi @Prakash thank you for replying. yes i've thought about it, but my problem is how to write the script (Python or Matlab). Is there any example? thank you
FP90 started following Dynamic analysis of a general body and modeling wheel on road
Hello to all, I'm trying to model a wheel that rotates on a plane without slipping, but that can lift off the floor when it's needed. I used the contact command and Poissoin's algorithm, but I wonder if there is another way to do it. Is it necessary to write a subroutine? thank you
.tlc TLC run
FP90 posted a topic in Altair MotionView, Altair MotionSolve and Altair Inspire (Motion)Hi to everybody, i'm trying to create a model writing in the command window. I 'm following the tutorial showed in the pdf "Motionview Tutorial" but i can't run the .tcl file. I try to explain better: after writing the model, it is required to save the script as .tcl format, in order to be able to "call" the model and then to register it in the Preference file.When i try to call it i have this message: This script should be run from the "widget" demo. I'm able to open .tcl format thanks to ActiveTcl or Vim 8.0, but i can't understand why MotionSolve can't run the model. Can someone help me please? thanks
Hi to everybody, i have this problem and i hope that someone is able to help me please. I want to perform the stress analysis of some bodies connected to each other and belonged to an assembly (the assembly is a wheelchair moving on the street) , but the stress only of those bodies not of the whole assembly. I saw that one way is using flex body to model the bodies, and it's the only way that i know to check the stress in motionsolve, but it happened this error: ERROR: Error encountered in analysis! (1) The integration has become unstable. Tighten (decrease) integr_tol, h_max, or both in Param_Transient can help stabilize the integration. If the simulation contains distinctive phases, use multiple Simulate, each with its own proper integrator parameter setting, to selectively tighten the tolerance during the period where instability is encountered. (2) If the simulation was terminated because stepsize has diminished consistently below h_min, reduce h_min in Param_Transient to force integration to continue. (3) Non-physical inertia properties, such as mass=100 Kg and Ixx=Iyy=Izz=1 Kg*mm^2, or extremely small inertia on a part with an unconstrained degree of freedom. Make sure the modeling data, in particular the part inertia and the gravity, are specified in proper units consistent with the units given in Param_Unit element. (4) Beam, flexible body goes out of linear range, bushing has large rotation along more than one axis, curve goes out of its interpolation range, higher-pair joint goes out of the range of U or V, etc. Make sure fundamental modeling assumptions, such as rigid contact assumption used in Force_Contact, are not violated. (5) Motion displacement defined using LINSPL, AKISPL in dynamic analysis, or as a function of model states (DX, VX etc), as well as forces defined as a function of other forces, can cause hard convergence and integrator failure. Avoid these modeling practices wherever possible. has anyone some suggest? or is there another method to check the stress analysis in motionsolve,maybe without using flex body? thank you very much
Hi to everybody, after that i stopped a dynamic simulation in MotionSolve i tried to start it again but i found this error: can someone help me please? thank you
Hi to everybody, someone can explain me the meaning of the inputs and of the outputs in this subroutine? i read the MotionSolve Reference Guide but it's not still clear for me. In particular i didn't understand what is it "q". Thank you
Circular trajectory
FP90 replied to FP90's topic in Altair MotionView, Altair MotionSolve and Altair Inspire (Motion)@Prakash Pagadala thank you for you help, it was very helpful. I have another question: i want to write a type of constrain Constraint_UserConstr using Matlab and not a dll file. Is there any example that can show me ho to write the script in matlab? Bacause i have found only how to write the XML file, the following one. Thank you
Circular trajectory
FP90 replied to FP90's topic in Altair MotionView, Altair MotionSolve and Altair Inspire (Motion)oh no im sorry @Prakash Pagadala, maybe i wasn't clear, i,m so sorry My main aim is to check the stability in curve of a wheelchair, so i've thought to create a circular trajectory (as i said in the first message of this topic) and move the wheelchair on that, but the problem is the type of the joint between the wheelchair and the curve. Thank you and sorry again for the mistake.
Hi to everybody, i need a help for this type of situation please: i've imported a circular curve in MotionView and i want to use it as a plane trajectory for my model. Which type of join should i use? and how should i set the motion? thank you
Thank you for answering @Prakash Pagadala, as you suggested me, i`ve already done some simply models to learn how to use MotonSolve, and now i`ve imported my wheelchair in .step format. My question now is if it possible to create a surface under the wheelchair where it can move, and which type of joints i should use. thank you
Hello to everybody, first of all, thank you for accepting me. I`m a engineering student and i`m doing my thesis work in Japan. I need to make a dynamic analysis of a wheelchair, such as instability during cornering and during climbing. I need to make an analysis similar to that one for vehicles in Motion Solve . And maybe is it possible to make a parametric analysis? Can anyone suggest me how to do please? thanks

Communications experts say preparation, practice, introspection is key for executives seeking to improve public presentation
Sept. 8, 2017
By Walt Williams
Most association leaders are not just expected to run multi-million dollar organizations—they're hired to be spokespeople for the industries their groups represent. But that role is one many executives often take for granted.
Ernie Rosenberg, retired CEO of the American Cleaning Institute, managed successfully not to be one of them. Among other practices, he and his staff would hold practice panels before congressional testimonies to rehearse responses. But regardless of the situation, he always kept a set of rules in mind when addressing others.
"The trick for association executives—and not necessarily just the CEO—is to adapt to your audience, to adapt to the amount of time you have, and not to get driven just by your audience's agenda. You also want to make sure you are getting the message you want to get across," he said.

We helped raise the online visibility of one of London's most prestigious hotels, The Landmark London, a five-star hotel located on Marylebone Road in central London.
About The Landmark London
Opened in 1899 as 'The Great Central Hotel', it was the last Victorian rail hotel built during 'the golden age of steam.' Today it is one of the capital's leading luxury hotels. It has beautiful suites and guest rooms, as well as conference facilities, restaurants and a spa and health club. It is a popular wedding venue, and it is also open to non-residents who come to sample its awarding winning afternoon tea.
How we could help
When the Landmark came to us most of the hotel's revenue came from direct traffic, whereby customers already knew about the hotel and wanted to stay specifically at the hotel, rather than completing a transaction after comparing similar hotels via a search engine. As a result, the hotel wanted to increase its visibility in search engines for competitive keywords, such as 'five star hotels in London.'
What we decided to do
We developed an organic search campaign that targeted identified keywords and aimed to increase the organic search visibility of the Landmark's website. Although the hotel would still predominately get most of its transactions from direct traffic, an increase in transactions from organic traffic is also something we hoped to see. We also monitored The Landmark's competitors to see how they ranked in comparison for specific keywords.
In the 12 months that we have worked with Click Consult, they have helped us significantly with our search marketing efforts. We're delighted with the results that we have seen so far
Joi Chuku – Head of Marketing, Landmark London
We have seen great results
We increased organic traffic to the Landmark site (excluding brand key terms) by 138% compared to the same period the previous year. We were able to optimise 112 keywords that weren't getting traffic previously, and we've seen that over 50% of Landmark's keywords have increased in ranking.
We also saw some significant increases in various metrics across a 12-month period. Below are some of the year-on-year increases we achieved in a county campaign (targeting industry keywords searched for alongside a particular county)

HOW TO USETo use, simply open the cover and remove plastic mist guard. Pour water into the reservoir until it reaches the max fill line, then add 5-7 drops of essential oil to the water. Close the cover, and choose your aroma mist option: continuous mist, which runs up to 4 hours, or intermittent mist (30 seconds on, 30 seconds off), which runs up to 8 hours. When the diffuser runs out of water, it will automatically shut off.
CLEANING AND CAREFor the most thorough clean, pour a 50/50 mixture of vinegar and water into the reservoir, then soak for five minutes. Brush reservoir walls, base, and ultrasonic membrane clean with a soft-bristle brush (not included) and rinse. NEVER touch the ultrasonic membrane with your fingers, as the natural oils in skin can damage the membrane. Clean the membrane once every two to three weeks, depending on your usage. Clean and dry the unit before extended periods of inactivity.

Imagine Cordless Ultrasonic Aroma Diffuser is rated out of 5 by 79.Rated 5 out of 5 by rilyaily from Beautiful Cordless Diffuser! This product is absolutely gorgeous! The outer cover is made of clay a beautiful painted blue to ombre to white. The instructions are super simple. Just fill the plastic reservoir to max and add your favorite essential oil about 7 drops or so. This kit is great because it came with a vial of oil, energizing scent. Also, did I mention this is cordless? Yes! It comes with a charge cord you're able to plus into a USB outlet or a cellphone charger base. Comes with lovely white light that is so beautiful with the clay shell. Rechargeable lithium-ion battery, has a four 4 hour continuous runtime or eight 8 and nice soothing humidity.Date published: 2019-09-06Rated 3 out of 5 by Starhawk from Easy to use and easy to spill The Imagine diffuser is easy to use. My entire family enjoyed the sample fragrance that came with the diffuser. I also really liked that there are two different settings for the diffuser to mist (ongoing and intermittent), as well as a light setting. However, the power buttons are on the bottom of the diffuser, which requires you to lift it up in order to change settings. Every time we did this, the water spilled. Not only does this make a mess, but we waste the essential oil too. Also, the power cord is USB. I would have preferred to have a regular plug.Date published: 2019-09-05Rated 5 out of 5 by Kimmjeff from Never used one before!!! I received the Ellia diffuser and I really like it. I never had one of these before, I have had the night light with the wax melts but this is a lot better. Not only does it help with making your house smell good it does a other things as well.First off it is cordless big plus there! It has a light that's nice, but it also helps you to soothe your mind and help keeps you calm or it could also give you an energized effect, as mine came with an oil of rise up energizing blend oil ,but there are plenty others you could try. Like eucalyptus, lavender that are 100% pure. I am really pleased with this and hope you try it!Date published: 2019-09-02Rated 5 out of 5 by Jen18 from Creates an amazing atmosphere! The Imagine Ultrasonic Aroma Diffuser is wonderful! It combines all the things I need to enjoy relaxation. The colors of it change subtly causing the room to feel more relaxed, it diffuses my oils and has calming music and sounds! It has all the things my senses need to grasp relaxation. I love that it has a remote so that I can change the settings from my seat, which just adds to the relaxation experience. It is very easy to add oil to and very easy to clean. It's so important to me to have a product that is easy to maintain. I have received a lot of compliments on this already and feel like in addition to all of it's relaxation qualities it is a conversation piece as well!Date published: 2019-08-30Rated 5 out of 5 by jamesthib72 from Nice diffuser This diffuser is an excellent way to make my home smell and feel better. First of all, the diffuser itself is very nice looking. It definitely adds a personal touch to my home. I've been keeping it in my kitchen to help with kitchen odors from cooking which I feel tend to stick around long after cooking. This has been a great way to keep my kitchen smelling great! The diffuser is easy to use and has very little maintenance to keep it running smoothly. It looks especially cool at night because it lights up a dark room. I love it!Date published: 2019-09-21

coldzera: "The problem is not inside the game; some players have had personal problems"
In our next interview from Poland, we sat down with Marcelo "coldzera" David to find out what is going on in SK, who have struggled to live up to their status throughout the last month.
Throughout Februray SK struggled to live up to their status as a top-two team in the world, placing third at cs_summit 2, 5th-8th at StarSeries, and 7th-8th at IEM Katowice, exiting their last tournament of the month in groups.
We got a hold of Marcelo "coldzera" David when the Brazilians came by the press area in Katowice and picked his brain on a few topics, particularly SK's recent issues and map preferences.
SK have been struggling so far this year, ever since you played the Major with felps really, can you tell me what the team's point of view on this is and what the problems are?
When we played with felps at the Major we changed a lot of things with him so that he could play more aggressively. After the Major we tried to play with boltz again, our game style is not the best right now, so we tried to fix the mistakes, but the problem inside the team is not inside the game, it's outside of the game, some players - for this tournament especially - have had some personal problems. We tried to do our best at this tournament, but the problem is not inside the team, it's outside. We tried to fix it, we had a lot of meetings together, so let's see at the next tournament.
Does it have anything to do with confidence as well, having struggled for a longer period of time now?
I don't think it's confidence, but I think we have a little bit of pressure in our game so we didn't play well. We didn't show up at these three tournaments we played, so of course we have a little bit of pressure on ourselves. But particularly at this tournament it's not the pressure, it's not that we played badly as a team, it's personal problems. The decisions were good, but sometimes we come to play the tournament but at the same time we are not here to play. That's a big problem.
Your map pool and vetoes have been a bit confusing from an outsider's point of view, you played a lot of Inferno at StarSeries and here it showed as well, but Overpass has taken a step back even though you didn't suffer many losses on it ahead of Katowice. Can you explain some of your map choices lately? What has changed regarding Overpass?
We aren't feeling good playing Overpass, we play well as T but as CT we do a lot of individual plays, so we don't play compactly. The game against Gambit made us change our idea against Cloud9, we picked Mirage against Cloud9 but two days before that we were going to pick Overpass with everyone. After Gambit made their comeback against us, we were feeling a bit afraid, because we made a lot of mistakes, stupid individual plays, and we changed our pick to Mirage.
About Inferno, we practice a lot of Inferno, our T side is good, as CT we tried to play more aggressive against Gambit and it worked really well, but against Cloud9 we played a little afraid because we were winning, we were playing not to lose. We played not to lose against Cloud9, we stopped playing aggressively in banana, stopped playing aggressively in mid, and we gave the whole map to them. At the moment, the map pool is not good for us because everyone will pick against us and that's why we practice it a lot. On Overpass we're trying to get our confidence back, but at the same time it's hard because we need to play more compactly. That's why we changed Inferno for Overpass.
At which point did you stop being confident on Overpass? Like I said before, your results on it before Katowice haven't been bad at all, only the loss to Cloud9 at Summit comes to mind...
We didn't practice a lot of Overpass because everyone was vetoing it against us. On the internet we started losing it a lot to random teams, we started losing our confidence, and we didn't see the new meta on Overpass, so we stopped playing it. This year we tried to just focus on Inferno, we forgot about Overpass, and when we saw we started losing, our confidence on Overpass went down.
We have 10 days now in Germany for a bootcamp before China, we will try to do our best, we will try to play a lot of maps. I think we'll try to play Nuke. We're going to start playing Nuke now, we were talking yesterday about it. I think we should just play more CS, for us the tournament was hard because we wanted to play on the stage, but it's okay, we have a lot of tournaments to show up at. I think for the next tournaments we will be better.
Going back to the personal problems, is that something that you can get past before WESG?
Yeah, of course. We had a meeting, we talked about it, and everyone said what's happening in everyone's life. I think for the next tournament we will be in a good place.
The last thing I'd like to pick your brain on is tournament formats, we had the BO3 Swiss for the first time at StarSeries and now we saw a new GSL-type format here at Katowice, what are your thoughts on the two?
I think the BO3 Swiss is good. I think in the last interview in Denmark I told you that this is the best way to play Counter-Strike, because to be in the quarter-finals or semi-finals, the teams need to play better than you. Cloud9 made the quarter-finals because they played better than us, it's just good teams going to the quarter-finals. It's the best way to make the tournament good.

A friend of my child's father is sending him inappropriate content
I believe it is wrong for men to look at inappropriate content. The father of my child has agreed to respect my beliefs. His co-worker sent him an inappropriate video. He got mad because he does not think he should tell his friend to not send him things like that.
From what you write, it sounds like you're reaching quite far into your child's father's way to handle his friendships.
There's a difference between an agreement between you and the child's father to not view porn, and with you monitoring and setting standards for your child's father's way to handle his social life.
Try to accept the limits of your request extends to you and the child's father, not the way the child's father wants to handle his relationships with other people.
Also, pushing too hard or setting your expectations of the child's father too wide for him to tolerate may end up backfiring on you.
Who knows, maybe he'll decide "enough is enough" and withdraw from the otherwise reasonable agreement to not watch porn.

Lake County Trust Co. v. St. Joseph County Assessor, 66 N.E.3d 630 (Ind.Tax Ct., Dec. 30, 2016)
ATTORNEY FOR PETITIONER: SHAWN F. SULLIVAN, ATTORNEY AT LAW, South Bend, IN.
ATTORNEYS FOR RESPONDENT: CURTIS T. HILL, JR., ATTORNEY GENERAL OF INDIANA, WINSTON LIN, PARVINDER K. NIJJAR, DEPUTY ATTORNEYS GENERAL, Indianapolis, IN.
Page 762
This case concerns whether the Indiana Board of Tax Review erred when it dismissed Lake County Trust Co., Trust No. 6's appeal sua sponte without a motion. The Court reverses and remands the Indiana Board's dismissal.
Flowers for Heaven, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) organization based in St. Joseph County. (See Cert. Admin. R. at 29, 31.) It operates a pro-life ministry from property located in South Bend, Indiana. (Cert. Admin. R. at 2-3, 26 n.1.)
On May 13, 2013, Flowers filed an Application for Property Tax Exemption (Form 136) for the 2013 tax year with the St. Joseph County Property Tax Assessment Board of Appeals (PTABOA) seeking a charitable purposes exemption for its personal property and the land and improvements from which it operated. (Cert. Admin. R. at 29.) On August 8, 2013, the PTABOA issued two Notices of Action on Property Tax Exemption (Forms 120): one granting a 100% exemption for Flowers' personal property and the other denying an exemption for the real property. (See Cert. Admin. R. at 7-10.) On the Form 120 denying the real property exemption, the PTABOA listed " Lake County Trust Company[,] Trust No. 6 (Flowers for Heaven)" as the property owner instead of Flowers, which was the owner listed on the Form 136. (Compare Cert. Admin. R. at 7-8 with 29.) The PTABOA stated the reason for its denial as follows: The property tax assessment board of appeals has denied this application for 100% tax exemption due to the fact that this property is not in the charitable entit[y']s name 'Flower[s] for Heaven Inc[.]' [T]his is according to I.C. [§ ] 6-1.1-10-16.
(Cert. Admin. R. at 8.)
Thereafter, the Trust, as the entity that received the PTABOA's Form 120 denial, filed the Petition for Correction of an Error (Form 133) with the PTABOA on May 15, 2014. (See Cert. Admin. R. at 2.) On its Form 133, the Trust specifically contended the error was made by the PTABOA when it named Lake County Trust Co., Trust No. 6 on the Form 120 denial, which is just a holding conduit for the taxpayer [Flowers] who is a tax exempt entity performing tax exempt functions. The taxpayer has exclusive use of the property for their exempt activity and can revoke the trust at anytime, i.e., a revocable trust. Property held in a revocable trust is considered property of the owners. In this case Flowers for Heaven, Inc.

Between the Clement Atlee's peace and the outbreak of war my father brought our 40 foot yacht from Portishead up to the Junction of the Stroudwater Canal. As he edged the boat (Ulula) slowly into the canal there was a noise like a violin, it was the forestay stretching the main telephone wire link!!
He backed away and Ulula spent the war moored there by Davis's yard, and I worked as a volunteer in the City General Hospital kitchen.
AT the First Air Raid alarm, we were told to go into the Bridgeman's House (Mr Holder) and sit on the floor in a passage way. Old Mrs Holder (a nervous lady) was going round with a cushion on her head. 'Oh! Mrs Hinman, I had a cushion for you, where did I put it?'
While living there my father formed a civil defence unit, 6 men, 1 rifle of the First War, 1 rifle, German, First War and several pieces of wood in the shape of a rifle and they marched up and down the boat yard!
My father (Charles Hinman) lived on the boat during the freeze up and managed to keep some warmth by a small coal fired stove. His office was in Gloucester Docks. His job was to organize all the petrol barges to bring petrol from Avonmouth to the midlands.(That was before there was a pipe line.)
In those days there were a few small barges that still traded up to Stroud, one was the River King. They belonged to the Butt family of Dunstalls Farm. My Father called them Butts Navy !!!

Facing a Panthers defense that excels at stuffing the run, the Falcons need Matt Ryan to snap out of his season-long malaise. Will Atlanta finally funnel the offense through Julio Jones? The All-Pro receiver is on pace for one of the worst seasons of his career — 85 catches, 1,234 receiving yards, two TDs. Jones has been a fighter jet lost at sea much of the season, earning only one 100-yard game and 10-plus targets in only two of seven matchups (for reference, he had 10-plus targets in 18 of 30 games from 2015-16). Matching up against Panthers corner James Bradberry is no picnic, but the Falcons need to rely on Jones on Sunday to keep pace in the NFC South.
What will life be like for Cam Newton the rest of this season without Kelvin Benjamin? Carolina traded away their top target on Tuesday. When ex-GM Dave Gettleman surrounded Newton with Benjamin and Devin Funchess the rationale was to give the QB big targets who can corral Cam's frequent high throws. The Panthers' party line for Tuesday's jettisoning of Benjamin was to get more speed on the field in hopes to open up a putrid run game. Newton will now be throwing to Funchess, Russell Shepard, and rookie Curtis Samuel as his receivers. Samuel appears to be the key but has just seven receptions on the season. Christian McCaffrey will continue to play a huge role in the passing game, but where will Newton go when he needs a big play, especially in the red zone where Benjamin thrived? Sunday's division tilt will hopefully provide some answers as to how OC Mike Shula plans to solve the riddle.
The preseason matchup between the Carolina Panthers and Tennessee Titans was suspended with 1:34 remaining in the third quarter due to lightning adjacent to the stadium.
Both teams returned to the field and resumed play after the 30-minute weather delay. During the wait, the team's social media departments decided to suggest some ways to pass the time.
"Craig is a consummate pro," Titans head coach Mike Mularkey said. "I have enjoyed working with him as a position coach and as a head coach, and he was someone who could always be counted on. He worked at his craft and was always accountable for his play. The qualities we use to describe players here — Tough, Dependable, Team-First — those are the qualities Craig had as a player. There has been an ongoing discussion with Craig, and we wanted to give him time to reach the decision he thought was best for him and his family. We are proud to call him a Titan, and he is always welcome around this team. We wish him and his family the best in his next chapter of life."
Stevens played in 109 career games (72 starts), including all 16 matchups during the 2015 season (11 starts). In his eight-year career, Stevens amassed 60 receptions for 724 yards and six touchdowns.
Like, for instance, attempting an onside kick on the opening play of the game. Ryan Succop approached the ball on Sunday and skipped it 13 yards right into the waiting arms of Packers special teamer Joe Thomas Jr. Chris Boswell is just happy people are finally talking about something else.
We commend the onions here, and perhaps the Football Gods rewarded the Titans on DeMarco Murray's first carry of the day.
Marcus Mariota suffered a fractured fibula in the third quarter of Saturday's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, coach Mike Mularkey told reporters. He is out for the remainder of the season and will undergo surgery in the coming days.
The Tennessee Titans quarterback had an air cast placed on his right leg after his foot was bent awkwardly on a sack by Jags defensive lineman Sheldon Day.
No matter how much genuine interest teams are showing, Robinson is wise to drop plenty of breadcrumbs along the way. Naturally, the goal is to paint the image of multiple front offices swarming the Titans with mind-blowing offers.
Any team with true interest is likely chasing one of the top two quarterbacks — Cal's Jared Goff or North Dakota State's Carson Wentz — before the Browns take the clock at No. 2. The 49ers (No. 7 pick), Eagles (No. 8) and Rams (No. 15) all make sense, but we still expect Tennessee to stay home and grab the player of their choice.

Issue#30 - Dedication Theme:
Freedom of Information in the Genetically Modified Age
Lack of transparency might be the worst problem of genetically modified foods
Fairytale Science
"Monsanto should not have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food....
Our interest is in selling as much of it as possible. Assuring its safety is the FDA's job."
Text & Images by Julie MARDIN
Written for The Light Millennium
Part 2
[Lightmillennium.Org] Since the early 1990's when Calgene introduced the Flavr Savr tomato, the American public has been kept in the dark as to the alarms raised by genetically modified (GM) foods, also known as genetically modified organisms or GMOs. Through a law suit which uncovered internal documents from the Federal Drug Administration, we learned that the FDA's own scientists had called for more testing and raised many warning flags, which were ignored by their superior political appointees.(1) Instead the White House instructed the FDA to promote biotechnology and a new position was created for former Monsanto attorney Michael Taylor. We were reassured that the transgenic tomato was perfectly safe and the so called genetically modified genie was let out of the bottle.
It was the first Bush White House and political appointee Michael Taylor, an attorney who has been shuffling between the government and Monsanto since 1976, and is currently our "Food Safety Czar", who oversaw the "substantial equivalence" policy. This was to provide the fig leaf for all subsequent GM foods. Deemed the same as their conventional counterparts, genetically modified foods have, amazingly, not been required to undergo any pre-market testing in the US, not since its earliest days, when inconvenient questions were raised. The EPA requires scanty month-long tests for those crops engineered to produce their own insecticide, but tests for all other GM crops are conducted at the manufacturers' own discretion, and the results, of course, are proprietary.
Do you trust the company that told us PCBs were safe,
and gave us Agent Orange and DDT, to conduct their own safety tests?
Even the studies used to prove safety are not readily available for public scrutiny. When Monsanto's MON863 was recommended for acceptance by the European Food Safety Authority, Greenpeace sued in order for Monsanto to release the referenced study. In this way Dr. Giles-Eric Seralini of the University of Caen in France was able to emulate the protocol himself, with one difference. His study lasted for two years, not the three months of the original study, and went on to uncover severe liver and kidney toxicity in all the groups fed GM corn, as well as glyphosate alone, the active ingredient in Monsanto's Roundup herbicide. In addition he found an inverse hormone relationship between the males and the females, and an increase and earlier onset of tumors.(2)
Inconvenient Questions
Back in 1998, Dr. Arpad Puzstai, a world renowned food safety expert at the Rowett Institute of Scotland, was the first high profile scientist to raise inconvenient questions. His lab had been chosen to study and come up with a protocol by which all genetically foods would be approved in Europe. And yet early on he observed stunted growth and suppressed immune systems in the rats fed a certain kind of GM potato, designed to express its own pesticide through a gene from the snowdrop plant. Upon postmortem examination he found that the rats fed the diet of GM potatoes had smaller brains, livers, and also thickening of the stomach and gut lining, which contradicted the industry assertion that these GM proteins do not survive digestion. His admission on a short television interview that he himself, at this time, would not eat the foods if he were given the choice, and that it was unfair to use their fellow citizens as guinea pigs, caused an uproar that cost him his job and shattered his reputation. He was gagged with the threat of a law suit, his laboratory shut down, and all his data seized. An anonymous board of scientists were called in to refute his work, and this man who had been at the top of his field was discarded overnight. And yet his single courageous, and in a way, desperate, act, put a brake on full blown introduction of GM foods into the European marketplace.
Part of the basis of his dismissal was that he should not have spoken publicly about research that had not yet been peer reviewed. And yet he later explained that he felt he had to do something when he realized he was just being used as a rubber stamp. His superior had in fact encouraged the interview at the time.
After the gag order was lifted by an invitation to speak at the British Parliament, Dr. Pusztai was able to send his audited report and rebuttal to all the scientists that had requested it, and twenty one international scientists released a statement in support of his work. His study was published in The Lancet.(3) He has said that he had no regrets about the interview. It was publicly funded research, and the public had a right to know.
Wrapped Fruit, Julie Mardin, 2014
Proprietary research in itself is a questionable practice, and many have argued that it sets back science. And yet, when the same secrecy shrouds studies that are conducted with tax-payer funds, we have to understand that governments also are controlled by the same private interests. The US in any case has been continuing on its trend to defund government agencies, and outsource their traditional functions and responsibilities to the private sector. With less federal funds available research universities have also grown much more reliant on corporate sponsors. This corporate dominance influences in drastic as well as subtle ways, not only the type of science that gets carried out, but the range of opinions as well.
"Scientists who do go against the general consensus do so at great risk
to their personal reputation and livelihoods..."
Scientists Ignacio Chapela and David Quist uncovered GMO contamination of indigenous maize in Mexico,(4) and the publication of their findings caused an uproar that almost lost Chapela his job at UC Berkeley three times. His work showed evidence that the industry had no control over their product, and unleashed a viral internet campaign to discredit him and his study, and to have it retracted. "You ask one question, you get the answer and you might or might not be able to publish it; but that is the end of your career," he warns in Bertran Verhaag's 2011 documentary "Scientists Under Attack."(5)
Those in the foreground of the defamation campaigns are usually scientists, or even fake scientists, with undisclosed affiliations, and/or an undisclosed stake, such as being a patent holder in the technology. This was the case with the campaigns to discredit both the Seralini team and Chapela and Quist studies. GMWatch's investigation uncovered a labyrinthian world of fake scientists, fake journals, UC Berkeley, Novartis, all tied back to Monsanto's internet PR firm.(6)
It is said to be harder to find anyone who does not have some form of conflict of interest even in the legitimate science world. The Bayh-Dole Act of 1980 also granted universities and their professors rights to own and commercialize federally funded research. While purported to help spur innovation, it also leads to questions of the independence and objectivity of these individuals and institutions.
Needless to say those scientists who do go against the general consensus do so at great risk to their personal reputation and livelihoods, and can expect concerted PR and intimidation campaigns against them.
Another example perhaps better known is the story of Dr. Tyrone Hayes, also of the University of California Berkeley. He was hired by Novartis, which turned into Syngenta, to study Atrazine, the second most widely used herbicide after Roundup. Their relationship turned sour when his work started yielding alarming results, showing sex changes of some of his frogs from male to female, with males actually laying viable eggs. When Syngenta stalled and intended to bury the results, Dr. Hayes chose to break away.(7)
What followed was 15 years of harassment by Syngenta, who were trying to prevent Hayes from replicating and publishing his work, or to prevent others from taking him seriously. UC Berkeley started charging his lab exorbitant fees and withdrew funding. Finally two class-action suits were brought against Syngenta by twenty-three Midwestern cities and towns. They accused Syngenta of "concealing atrazine's true dangerous nature" and contaminating their drinking water, and used Dr. Hayes' work as scientific backing.(8) Emails and internal memos were unsealed by the trial and revealed some of the shameless tactics that the company had been using to try to discredit and intimidate Dr. Hayes and other members of an EPA review panel, including commissioning a psychological profile on Hayes, hiring private detectives, and making physical threats against Hayes and his family. They also maintained a stable of 'independent experts' who were paid to write about the economic virtues of atrazine, downplay the risks, without revealing their industry connections. It would seem that the company's approach to safety had more to do with spin and intimidation than actual science.(9)
It is no wonder that Dr. Don Huber has been very slow to publish his most current investigations with food scientists and veterinarians working in the midwest, having to do with the discovery of a previously unknown organism in the tissue of diseased plants and animals, where Roundup Ready and other GMO technology is implicated. With fifty years of experience with the US Government and Military, this distinguished plant pathologist has nevertheless been on a mission to spread awareness of the increase in 'aids-like' diseases in plants as well as the alarming rates of miscarriage and infertility among live stock who have been eating Roundup Ready grain. Even outside of any formal scientific study, one has to pay attention to the real world experience of the farmers and their livestock, who are on the front lines with genetically modified feed.
Part of Dr. Huber's presentation includes a statement that the National Cattlemen's Beef Association had given to the Senate back in 2002, describing an alarming increase in abortions and infertility, and discoveries of premature aging when calves were sent to slaughter.
"Cattle ranchers are facing some puzzling - and, at times, economically devastating problems with pregnant cows and calves. At some facilities, high numbers of fetuses are aborting for no apparent reason. Other farmers successfully raise what look to be normal young cattle, only to learn when the animals are butchered that their carcasses appear old and, therefore, less valuable."
"The sporadic problem is so bad both in the United States and abroad that in some herds around 40-50 percent of pregnancies are being lost."
"The viability of this important industry is threatened."
Testimony of the Ranchers-Cattlemen Action Legal Fund, United Stockgrowers of America, to the Senate Agriculture Committee July 24, 2002
During the 2011 public comment period for GM alfalfa, which is one of the primary crops grown for livestock feed, Dr. Huber had written a private letter to USDA head, Tom Vilsack, speaking of all the published and emerging work relating to the overuse of glyphosate, as well as the discovery of the pathogen "new to science" prevalent in the diseased crops and in the tissue of diseased animals. He urged that funds be allocated for proper independent research, and that the decision to deregulate these crops be delayed.(10) This was the most risky GM crop so far, as it is an insect pollinated perennial, that would make contamination to non GM varieties a sure thing. Not to mention that most conventional alfalfa farmers do not even require herbicide, what was the purpose of an herbicide tolerant alfalfa? Nevertheless, ten days later GM alfalfa was approved, and three weeks later President Obama signed two more Roundup Ready crops into law.
"Roundup is biodgradable and leaves the soil clean."
Monsanto's claims before being sued by French and New York courts for false advertising
While Dr. Puzstai's work showed severe problems with the genetic modification process itself, Dr. Huber and others have published over 100 studies on the toxicity of glyphosate, the active ingredient in the increasingly used herbicide Roundup, which is part of the system of growing Roundup Ready crops. .
There are multiple ways that glyphosate is harmful--first, as an endocrine disruptor, as had been shown in the work of Dr. Seralini, similar to the work of Dr. Hayes with Atrazine, demonstrating hormonal havoc in their test subjects. Second, a broad spectrum chelator, it inhibits the plants, and presumably those of us who eat the plants, in our uptake of important micronutrient minerals, such as manganese, cobalt, B12, zinc, copper, thus weakening our defenses against disease. It had also at one time been patented as an antibiotic, and thus wipes out all the beneficial microbes, allowing harmful bacteria or organisms to flourish, both in the soil and in our gut. The glyphosate is not something you can wash off, it becomes systemic in the plant itself, accumulating in the roots, leaching into the soil, where it can remain to affect future plants, depending on the conditions, sometimes for years to come.(11)
Since they are designed to withstand liberal sprays without being killed, herbicide-tolerant GM crops have encouraged greater and greater use of chemicals, resulting in resistance in the target plants, and extensive superweeds in farmland across North America. The Environmental Protection Agency responds by allowing for greater levels of chemicals in our food. Scientists have also begun to stack the herbicide tolerant trait together with Bt technology, which causes a toxin from the soil bacterium Bacillus Thuringiensus to be expressed throughout the plant.
Some are speculating that the increasing gastrointestinal problems in the United States, leaky gut, Crohn's and Celiac Disease, could be linked to glyphosate, because of all these synergistic effects, as well as with Bt technology itself, which has been shown to punch holes in human cells in vitro, much the way it punches holes in the digestive system of insects.(12) If this is what it is doing in our guts, foreign proteins and information could escape through the intestinal lining and into our bloodstream, and start effecting how our organs function. A Chinese microRNA study with mice confirmed altered organ function after oral ingestion of three different types of genetically modified corn.(13) This could also be the explanation for how Bt toxin was found circulating in the blood of over 90% of women and their babies tested in a 2011 Canadian study.(14)
Antibiotic resistance and Bt proteins could also be transferred from transgenes. As touched on in Part 1 of the Overview, studies are beginning to show that repeated lateral transfers of these foreign sequences is a real possibility, via the bacterial or viral vectors. They could combine with the DNA of soil microbes, so that future plants are affected by the same genetic alterations. They could also transfer into the gut bacteria of the livestock, or humans, who consume these GMOs, as was demonstrated in the one human feeding trial.(15) There this foreign DNA can perpetually produce allergens, create instability, silence important metabolic functions,(16) or express the desired trait of the transgenic plant, ie. we will produce pesticide within our own bodies.
Is this science fiction or our reality?
It seems evident that there are a multiplicity of problems and unknowns that the biotech industry is in no rush to share or to uncover. We are told that Americans have been eating these foods for two decades, with no great impact. Just as we were told that Roundup is a perfectly safe and biodegradable chemical. In fact Monsanto knew since the 1980s that glyphosate caused birth defects in lab animals. A report by Earth Open Source provides a window into how European regulators reviewed worrying data submitted by industry when it was seeking acceptance of its glyphosate tolerant crops. Regulators rationalized and proceeded to raise the allowable safety levels. Industry and regulators knew about the studies, but the public did not.(17)
As these foods are not labeled, there is really no way to monitor the effect of eating a GM diet. Although, if we look at former Navy scientist Nancy Swanson's report, we would find a compelling series of graphs plotting the incidence of such diseases as autism, intestinal bowel disorder, or thyroid cancer against such things as the amount of glyphosate sprayed, or the acreage of Roundup Corn planted in the US. The plotted variables remain remarkably in sync.(18)
"Monsanto should not have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food.... Our interest is in selling as much of it as possible. Assuring its safety is the FDA's job."
—Phil Angell, Director of Corporate Communications, Monsanto, quoted in New York Times Magazine, October 25, 1998
"Ultimately, it is the food producer who is responsible for assuring safety."
— FDA, "Statement of Policy: Foods Derived from New Plant Varieties" (GMO Policy), Federal Register, Vol. 57, No. 104 (1992), p. 22991
A threat even greater than nuclear technology -- brought to you by Monsanto
The Emperor, our Democracy, and our Scientific Establishment, all have no clothes. There have been billions invested into the business, and there will be billions more to be made, and so there is no room for inconvenient studies or bad news. Which explains the rushed and secretive nature of the science, as well as the almost intentional lack of control over the environmental impact of their products, which is an underhanded way to increase and take over market share.
One of the most insidious and nefarious properties of scientific models is their tendency to take over, and sometimes supplant, reality. —Erwin Chargaff
It is important to remember the person and the words of Erwin Chargaff, biochemist, some call the father of genetics, as he discovered two rules that led to the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA. When he met young Watson and Crick who were later to get the Nobel prize for the discovery, he wrote, "They impressed me with their extreme ignorance." He was called a misfit and he embraced the term, not happy with much of the direction of science. When gene manipulation was beginning to be discovered he accused scientists of practicing biochemistry without a license. He called the threat of genetic engineering greater than nuclear technology, "an irreversible attack on the biosphere, something so unheard of, so unthinkable to future generations, that I only wish mine had not been guilty of it."(19)
Chargaff was marginalized in his later years, and he is not the household name that Crick and Watson are. That someone so distinguished in accomplishments can be dismissed so casually by the scientific community is instructive. Previously eminent scientists can be shunned simply for holding a contrary view to the commonly accepted paradigm. The scientific community of today is as dogmatic and restrictive as the Catholic Church had become in the heights of its power.
Just as one has to get the money out of politics, one has to get the money out of Science as well.
We know that within 20 years the staple GE crops of corn, soy, cotton and canola have all grown to be close to 90% or higher in the United States. One cannot assume the technology has spread of its own virtue. One has to take into account the willingness to lie, to false advertise, to sponsor fraudulent science, all of which Monsanto has been convicted of,(19) the ease of contamination, as well as the highly litigious approach to small farmers who have done nothing except be in the way of the technology.(20)
Meanwhile, the mainstream media reported on the introduction of the new technology in glowing terms. With the introduction of Bt Cotton in India, Devindir Sharma called the World Bank report and the subsequent media coverage "a scientific fairytale."(21)
To be continued.
Please check back soon when we explore the fate of the small farmer in the face of this technology, hidden somewhere behind the veil of the non-disclosure form.

Insert motivational quote about success and failure
I left the title blank because I don't have a sweet quote for that. I don't think those apply to what we do. In fact, the only way I see failure in the gym is by not showing up or not being coachable. You have to crawl before you walk and walk before you run, right. Honestly, I am getting tired of watching people fail on movements. It is partly my fault for allowing some of it to take place. It also has much to do with ego, but the point I'm getting to is that failure does not build success in the gym.
Struggle builds success.
Hard work builds success.
Mastering the basics builds success
I noticed recently that failing at reps is becoming common practice. This is true for any box out there. Many people want to put up big numbers. They want to do the cool movements like snatch or muscle up. They want to push themselves to the limit. Those are all cool things. I want you to strive for more and push yourselves, but
Ask yourself these questions:
-Did failing 10 muscle ups in a row increase your gymnastic skills?
-Did over loading the bar for a snatch and sacrificing your technique make you a better lifter?
-Did you get stronger by failing a squat because you loaded a weight that your body wasn't ready for?
-Was it worth it to wreck your back as you rounded it to keep up with another member in a wod?
-Is what you're doing making you a better athlete, making you more fit, or getting you closer to your goal?
-Are you in control of your workout or is your ego?
Now, I've gone on long enough. Here's what I recommend:
-Start by aiming to push yourself as hard as possible every workout without failing any reps.
-Do everything only as fast and as heavy as perfect technique will allow.
-Listen to your body. Somedays you will come in ready to smash the weights and the wod. Some days you wont be able to do a single squat with your 10 rep max from 2005. Some days you will just have to take it back a notch and do the best you can for that training day.
-Ask me what scale or version to use for a movement that you struggle with (including use of bands)
-Learn the basics and go through the progressions before full movements!!!
I want to talk a little more about that last one, because it is what originally got this post going. Every movement has a progression or a scale. In order to be efficient, you have to master the basics or the individual pieces of a movement. You will never be able to do muscle ups if you either can't do strict pull ups or your kip sucks. You will never be able to hit full squat snatches if your overhead squat or foot work sucks. There are plenty more examples of these. This week I will be working on a progression chart for all of our main movements. It will give you a key for scaling, as well as movement hierarchy to hone in your skills. I will design the chart and it is up to you to stick to and master your level before moving to the next step.
Train Hard Train Smart

I like this a lot.. Crazy how your mindset changes on this as you train more and become more serious. You leave your ego at the door even if it's a natural struggle to a competitive athlete. I've learned to leave my ego at the door a while back and my training has been more successful.
P.s told you I read your stuff.

The best way to think of the way hair grows is to picture a garden. How well it grows is completely a result of what is happening "underground."
"Like a garden,a normal hair cycle should lead to a product, which is the hair," says Wendy Roberts, MD, a dermatologist at a private practice in Rancho Mirage, Calif.
"Growth cycles are important because when they go awry, that is one of the reasons we have hair loss."
But thinning hair and hair loss are also common in women, and no less demoralizing.
Reasons can range from the simple and temporary—a vitamin deficiency—to the more complex, like an underlying health condition.
Hair loss, or alopecia, is a concern for men, women, and children. Treatments for hair loss include medications such as Propecia and Rogaine, hair replacements, and hair restoration.
Guava leaves have taken the internet by storm with claims of it being a miracle solution for hair loss.
It is also gaining popularity as a hair thickening ingredient that promotes rapid hair growth.
A lot of people are currently experimenting with over the counter shampoos, oils, or treatments, which can work very well, but are not cost effective for continuous usage.
Others are looking to their doctors to prescribe them with medication that can be even more expensive to test out.
Looking into natural remedies for hair loss will not only be cheaper than most other options, but will also be easier find!
One of the best natural remedies for hair loss can be found within guavas.
Here's how to prepare this remedy:
Put 1 liter of water in a pot and add a handful of guava leaves.
Then, put the pot to boil and leave it to simmer on low heat for 20 minutes.
Next, remove the pot from the stove and leave it to cool off.
Afterwards, massage your scalp with this mixture and leave it for numerous hours prior to cleaning it off.
Guava leaves are worthy of so much attention since they offer an abundance of health benefits. They are high in vitamins A and C, potassium, healthy fiber and lycopene.

Techweek'18 event highlights benefits for the West Coast
The West Coast could be uniquely placed to emerge as a centre for smart technology and innovation, according to a New Zealand technology leader in town for Techweek'18.
Tai Poutini Polytechnic (TPP) has partnered with Carl Pavletich, head of Fabriko Creative and the Fab
Lab Christchurch, to help bring new technology and developments to the West Coast. Carl will be in Greymouth during May as part of Techweek'18, along with Westport‐based Vertigo Technologies, to talk to people about the potential benefits of the so‐called "fourth industrial revolution", digital fabrication devices such as 3D printers and CAD, and the significance of greater access to technology.
TPP Chief Executive Alex Cabrera says the week‐long event is a great way for Coasters to learn more about how they can use technology in their business and to aid their every‐day lives. "TPP is supporting dozens of events right across the region and right here on campus. As well as providing quality tertiary education that meets the needs of our students and industry, TPP supports events and activities that benefit the entire region – Techweek'18 is a great example of this."
Carl Pavletich says the geographical challenges faced on the Coast could become an advantage as locals use new technology to address unique issues.
"Common sense says that if you have a problem, it's more than likely shared by others around the world. If we use technology to find solutions to the unique challenges faced on the West Coast – geographical isolation, distance from city hubs, etcetera – it could put the region at the forefront technological innovation," he says.
Carl and Westport‐based Vertigo Technologies Co‐founder and Chief Executive Brett Cottle will host an afternoon event on Friday May 18 focused on how Industry 4.0 – the trend toward increased connectivity of devices, digital fabrication through technology such as 3D printers and the subsequent impact on manufacturing technologies – could benefit the West Coast.
"A few years ago, this technology was only available to big multi‐nationals. Now, through companies like Vertigo, almost anyone can own a 3D printer or CNC router. The barriers to innovation have been lowered; you no longer have to send prototypes to China to be mass‐produced, you can create them now, right here, in the quantities you need," Carl says.
"We're only limited by our imagination. Think of a problem your business faces and it could be solved by technology – that same technology could then be marketed on a global scale. While New Zealand has taken a little longer than the rest of the world to embrace these technologies, there is still plenty of time to get onboard."
Brett Cottle says his Westport‐based business, designing and building affordable CNC machines for home and small business use, is not limited by its location.
"We've been operating two years and we've come a long way in that time. We're proving to the big wigs and the rest of the country that technology can be developed anywhere – it's not a barrier to be based on the West Coast. Our market is largely outside the region but there's absolutely no reason why you can't be successful from Westport.
"There are not very many places in New Zealand you can walk out of the office and straight on to the beach. It's about work‐life balance and I'm keen to share my experience with other Coasters," he says.
Techweek'18 West Coast Events
Techweek'18 is a national event that aims to provide a week‐long opportunity for connection and cross‐pollination of ideas. TPP is helping to bring Techweek'18 to the West Coast by supporting regional events and hosting live‐streaming of national activities.
TPP invites anyone interested in learning more about the latest technologies to come along to the
Techweek'18 events. As well as the Friday 18 May Fab Lab Club event (3.30pm‐5.00pm, TPP Conference Room, Greymouth), there will also be an opportunity for people to test some of the latest Virtual Reality and 3D printing technology as part of the Tech Showcase being held in the TPP Conference Room on Saturday 19 May, 10am‐3pm.

text: At issue in this case is a challenge by owners of for-profit, secular corporations to the federal Affordable Care Act's contraception mandate. The mandate requires the corporations to provide employees with comprehensive health insurance, including birth control coverage, or to pay a modest tax, which is generally lower than the aggregate cost of employee health insurance. The owners and corporations claim that the contraception mandate violates the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act ("RFRA") by "substantially burdening" their religious exercise. ADL's amicus brief argues that for multiple reasons, including the corporations having the option of not providing comprehensive health insurance, any burden on religious exercise posed by the mandate is incidental and therefore it does not violate RFRA.

text: The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 instruments for keeping a web server working in case there are troubles with the main source - an outage or unstable current that cannot keep the web server functioning properly, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, though it can often be called Uninterruptible Power Source too. The UPS is, essentially, an efficient battery that is connected to the hosting server and to the electric power network all of the time, so if there is any disturbance, it is already operating, which enables the server to keep on operating without losing any information. The diesel generator is an engine that can power up an entire data center. It does take some time to begin working and it is the UPS which gives it that time. These 2 power solutions are a necessity for any facility or service provider that wants to prevent data loss and hardware damage caused by an unexpected electrical power issue.

Formal Terraced Garden Ilkley, West Yorkshire
Following design plans by garden designer Maxine Nelson, this garden in Ilkley, West Yorkshire was transformed from a tired, neglected area that was barely used, to an elegant formal garden with clean lines and contemporary water feature.
The main elements of construction involved substantial excavation of the site, followed by a large landscape gardening project involving the creation of formal terracing using natural stone paving and the installation of a rill water feature to run through the garden to a sculpture focal point.

Stem cell transplants stalled blindness in rats
Image via Wikipedia
Nerve stem cell transplants may help slow the progression of macular degeneration, the most common cause of blindness in the developed world, U.S. researchers said on Monday.
They said putting nerve stem cells from StemCells Inc near the retinas of rats with a form of macular degeneration helped keep the disease from advancing to blindness for several months.
"These cells improve the chemical environment in the back of the eye," said Ray Lund of the Casey Eye Institute at Oregon Health & Science University in Portland, whose findings were presented at the Society for Neuroscience meeting in Chicago.

"Texprint gives incredible exposure to a new young talent and can certainly launch them into the industry in a strong and powerful way. It is a wonderful forum of creative thinking, where new ways of looking at cloth and the manipulation of fabric are expressed and Victoria's work is a brilliant example of this" said creative director of Burberry, Christopher Bailey, who presented the award. Having also caught the eye of Bryan Dicker, president of Holland & Sherry Interiors, Shepherd's work has also won her the Interior Fashion Prize. "Victoria's work is particularly modern, extremely adaptable and incredibly fresh," he said. She now goes on to show her work alongside 23 designers at Indigo as part of the Paris Premiere Vision fabric fair in September. Previous Texprint alumni include Alice Temperley, Claire Tough and Zandra Rhodes.

Restauranteur, chef, and MasterChef Australia judge, Gary Mehigan, shares with us how to add a little something different to the usual slider recipe.
Gamashio is a Japanese condiment made from sesame seeds that has a distinctive umami flavour, and it's a wonderful seasoning for salads, fish and dressings. I like to use unhulled sesame seeds, which are available from health food stores.
Makes 12
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
1 star anise
1 teaspoon chilli flakes
½ teaspoon cumin seeds sea salt flakes
1 kg deboned belly pork, skin on, scored at 5 mm intervals (ask your butcher to do this for you)
Boiling water, for blanching table salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
12 brioche buns (8–9 cm diameter)
1 quantity pickled daikon
1 large handful coriander leaves
½ cup (75 g) natural unhulled sesame seeds
2 teaspoons soft brown sugar sea salt flakes
1½ cups (375 ml) Mayonnaise
- Use a mortar and pestle to pound the fennel seeds, star anise, chilli flakes, cumin seeds and a good pinch of salt to a coarse powder, then transfer to a large plate.
- Place the pork, skin-side up, on a rack suspended over the sink and carefully pour over a kettle-full of boiling water. Pat dry with paper towel, then place the pork on the plate with the spices and rub in all over. Leave uncovered in the fridge for several hours (or overnight) to dry out.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C fan-forced (220°C conventional). Place the pork, skin-side up, in a heavy-based roasting tin. Rub the skin with 2 teaspoons table salt and drizzle with the olive oil. Roast for 30 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 140°C fan-forced and roast, basting regularly, for a further 2 hours. (After this time, if the skin is not as crisp as you'd like it, place the pork under the hot oven grill for 5–10 minutes.) Leave the pork to rest for 10 minutes before cutting into 2 cm thick slices and then halving lengthways to fit the brioche buns.
- Meanwhile, for the gamashio mayonnaise, place the sesame seeds in a heavy- based frying pan over low heat and toast, stirring regularly, for about 15 minutes or until fragrant, then set aside to cool completely. Place the seeds, sugar and a pinch of salt in a blender or small food processor and blend for 30 seconds or until fine but not too floury – some texture to the gamashio is good. Remove and set aside.
- Make the mayonnaise according to the instructions then, with the mayonnaise still in the food processor, add the gamashio. Process for 30 seconds until well combined. Add a teaspoon or so of warm water to make a slightly thinner consistency if you like.
- Cut the brioche buns in half and toast the cut-sides under the hot oven grill until golden. Spread both cut-sides of each bun with gamashio mayonnaise. Divide the pickled daikon among the bases, add a piece of pork belly, then top with plenty of coriander and the bun lid.
This recipe features in Gary Mehigan's cookbook, Favourites, published by Lantern, RRP $49.99.

Introduction: Salvaging and Inspecting an Old Shower Head Heater.
This decommissioned shower head heater is due to be thrown in the garbage. Before doing that to my former 11 year old heater, I wanted to open it up.
Step 1: Taking Off the Top.
Using a large flat blade screwdriver I removed the selector switch for warm off hot. You can see the power and ground wires easily.
Step 2: Accessing the Flow Switch.
These heaters contain a flow switch that relies on water pressure to force the movable contacts (3 of them) onto the fixed contacts below the top I removed. This top is held around the circumference by 5 Phillips head screws.
As you can clearly see, those contacts are pitted. I don't trust this arrangement for low pressure utility water supplies like in my area. Pitted contacts generate excess heat and will eventually cause failure of the heater. Since my old unit was in service for over a decade, I guess I got good life our of it regardless.
Step 3: Retrieving the Heater Element.
The base needs to be unscrewed to access the heater. This element is in good working condition so I shall keep it for use in the new shower head heater.
