Author Naipaul is no doubt a scholar and great writer, but he is also an 'outsider' to India. Born in Trinidad to East Indian parents does not make one an 'insider', or an Indian living in India. He certainly has an affection and attachment to India, like most second generation Indians living all over the globe. But that does not quality him to give an objective view of ancient or present-day India.
His personal encounters in India and the revelations that may have come with them are just that. The truth is known only by Indians raised in the Indian culture in India, who deal with everyday India every day. Many outsiders have claimed that they have not been able to understand India well.
Some of the judgments and conclusions the author has come to are truly bazaar. He seems to forget that India has been buried deeply in its religiosity and spirituality for thousands of years. And She has been attacked so many times. The healing is taking time. But Indians generally happen to be super-intelligent and are rebuilding the new India. Yes, the Indian 'national personality' lacks certain attributes, but these traits may be there to stay.
No, Gandhi Ji would not have been able to completely remove the caste system. No, he did not have a defective vision of India, which the author claims Gandhi Ji had. What Gandhi did was practice his experiments with Truth, and one of the results of the practice was the Independence. Of course, many Indians do not see it exactly this way.
With all due respects, the book is myopic at best. After all, the author seems to have only Western point of view, having born and studied in the West.

RC snubbers for diode recovery noise
In an conventional, bridge rectified capacitor input supply, where is the best place to RC snub the resonant circuit formed by secondary distributed capacitance and leakage inductance of the winding? I have seen it suggested to place RC snubbers across each diode. Wouldn't RC across the secondary be sufficient? Are there any advantages to doing it one way vs. the other?

I would put a snubber on the secondary. If necessary (e.g. for RF equipment) a capacitor across each diode too.

Jim Hagerman has written the best audio related treatise on the subject to which I'm aware.

I had read the Hagerman paper, which is what prompted the question. In the opening of the paper he states that the problem is usually dealt with using RC snubbers across the diodes. At the end of the paper, the simulated circuit shows RC across the secondary.
I have followed Hagerman's method with good results. I made some regulated supplies that didn't attenuate the switching noise that much. Snubbers made the output very quiet. I was mostly just wondering if there was a compelling reason to put RC snubbers across the diodes. It would require more parts so is there an advantage? |

Hagerman's article is interesting, but I think it contains an error. He correctly calculates the required resistance to damp an LC circuit. He then assumes that he can simply connect this resistor with a big capacitor in series with it. The snag with this is that the capacitor will lower the resonant frequency and the characteristic resistance of the tuned circuit. The result is that while significant damping will take place it will not be the critical damping he was aiming at. The result can be seen in Fig 10 - still a little ringing but at a much lower frequency.
He needs to do the full maths of the original LC with the CR snubber across it. I haven't done the sums, but I would guess you need a C about twice that of the LC (i.e. about a third of his value), and an R of about half his calculated value. He also says that is important to use non-inductive resistors. Fine for damping UHF sproggies in a transmitter, but for damping sub-MHz ringing in a 50Hz power transformer any resistor will do. Film resistors are essentially resistive up to about 100MHz, so no need for carbon composition. Wirewound would do in most cases! |

In the paper, he states that he is shooting for a slightly under-damped response with a damping coefficient of 0.5, but your points are well taken.

It would seem, although I have not done the analysis to confirm, that one could either damp the reasonant 'bell', or soften the impulse produced by the 'hammer' strike, as it were. So, my conclusion is that damping the effective tank circuit (per Hagerman), or reducing the effective dV/dT (or dI/dT) of the rectifier diode commutation would both work towards reducing high-frequency ringing by this network. Perhaps, the greatest effect would be had by doing both.

Maybe it's two separate issues, but I thought RF was generated at the diode when it switches and needs to be bypassed right at the diode because lead length would make it useless anywhere else. 0.01 uF is about right, no R needed.
I may be barking up the wrong tree, but at least I'm barking! |

There could be two issues here. Diode switch-off can be very sharp - it was even used as a microwave source although using diodes developed for the purpose. That is why in RF situations there are sometimes small caps directly across the diodes. As an audio amp should not be sensitive to RF (although they sometimes are) there is less need. The transformer ringing then becomes the issue, and a snubber across the secondary deals with this. Note that a cap across the diodes simply shifts the frequency of the transfomer resonance but does not damp it.
So to stop transformer ringing when the diodes switch off put a snubber across the transformer. To stop RF radiation (or modulation hum) from the diode transition put a cap across each diode - but this might not be necessary in audio equipment. A snubber across each diode is an expensive way of stopping transformer ringing (4 snubbers instead of 1), and probably won't be so good at stopping RF as a simple cap. |

Strategy for Slot games
In this article, I will be sharing my personal strategies for playing online slots games which I have devised after several years of experimenting with new titles and exploiting the weaknesses of titles I am familiar with to maximize my advantage. After having devised this strategy, I have stuck to it for a good part of a decade while making minor adjustments along the way to account for advancements and improvements in the world of slot games. I basically use bank roll management, that is to say that I avoid going all out when it comes to betting, utilizing the money that I can afford to splurge and lose while making safe bets of the major chunk of money. This gives you the freedom to utilize a portion of the money for experimenting, mixing up and trying newer titles and newer strategies and tips/ tricks to help you ace the slots.
These games are renowned for their house edge, so it is recommended that you look for games that are known for their higher pay out ratios or Return to player ( RTP ) percentages. Another way to look at it would be to avoid the games with the lowest/worst pay out ratios or Return to player ( RTP ) percentages. It is also advised to take into account that volatility factor when you are deciding on a slot as this choice of slot may prove to be quite deciding factor in your actual pay out ratio or returns. Some slots reward you with smaller returns with more frequency as compared to its other counter parts whereas some slots are infamous for their lower pay out frequency, although the payout may be significantly larger despite the low frequency.
It is estimated that more than one billion people in the world own a tablet and by 2020 there will be around 6 billion smartphone users.

Choosing No Deposit Casino
Free gambling establishment loan is the most conventional and widely provided kind of bonus offer by online gambling establishments. If you browse on other sites for no-deposit gambling establishment bonuses understand that anything over $100 complimentary smells fishy. Casinos using these "too generous" bonuses are frequently "rogue" and you'll have to await months to bank your jackpots or in the worst case never see your winnings!
At CasinoTopsOnline.com we browse just for respectable casino sites that offer the very best no deposit perks; so you can feel safe playing at all advised online gambling establishments available on our site. If you enjoy no deposit promos take a look at our list of Free Spins perks.
NOTE: The majority of the online casinos which offer free cash (no-deposit) sign up bonuses have employed a wagering system and bonus conditions to prevent abuse of their bonus offers, i.e. no-deposit rewards almost always bring betting requirements. Prior to accepting a bonus offer constantly make certain to go through the terms!
In our benefit reviews the max cashout information indicates the maximum amount that gamers are allowed to withdraw after the completion of betting requirements. If there is No Limits showing that suggests that there is no optimum limitation on the quantity you might withdraw. Frequently players from the UK and Ireland have no restrictions on the amount they can withdraw from no-deposit money bonuses.

How poker can Change Your Life
Online poker is something that has become very common nowadays and also legal in most of the countries across the globe. Although the usual presumption is drawn out of someone who is playing poker is that he is a filthy rich person. Of course, poker gives you the right kind of skills, experience, and intelligence you need to make money but it can also change your entire view of life. YES! Poker can CHANGE your LIFE. While most of the people take it as a regular game, for moment rewind back to your very first poker games which you played and perhaps lost. Then you played again and lost or won but learned something new. Every game you play at any online poker platforms (some common ones like Bet365, BandarQ, WilliamHills, etc.) is a learning experience, and it teaches you to make better decisions.
As a result of decision making, you start to make your life better by optimizing it around the best decisions and choices through a strategic thinking. It also helps to in improving intuition and ability to read different people around you. If you ever had the chance of exploring the life of a successful poker player, you'll notice that they are extremely good at decision making and this is what made them successful.
Another important aspect of poker is that it teaches you that we all are different and chances are what works best for a particular person opposite to you. I highly recommend not to play poker for money or fun only. Try to learn what it is trying to teach you. As a result, you will be able to make important decision more accurately. Once you are happy with the amount of money you are making with poker, your next goal should be to start weighing your life decisions.
Matched Betting: What Could Go Wrong?
For many years, it has been said that matched betting is one of the low-risk strategies and hardly something could go wrong. But here is what can possible go wrong and you should seriously consider it.
Placing the wrong bet
Most of the bookmakers have dozens of betting markets and especially on sports events. Commonly a soccer game which has Match Odds, Correct Score, Over/Under 2.5 Goals, Next Goal, Half Time, Corner Match Bet and other markets as well. To save yourself from any potential risk, you have to place the bets in the same market of the same event. In case you make a mistake, it can be corrected with little or no loss, simply by placing the opposite bet in Betfair, assuming that you are perfectly aware of it.
You need to correct these mistakes and never rely on the luck. Also, ensure that you have placed a bet because most of the bookies ask you to confirm the bet you want to place.
Another important thing to consider when going through matched betting is that those bonuses and free bet offers are not a reward. They are a trap, and you can't claim it unless you deposit a fixed amount of cash in your account and then place bets at certain odds as mentioned in the terms and conditions of the Bookmaker. What I recommend is to bet the bonus award you get in the bet at odds of 1.5 or at least 2.00. This increases your chance of getting the reward quickly.
Another thing that could go wrong here is suspended accounts. Quite often the new customers don't verify their identities and your account may get suspended temporarily or even permanently. You need to contact the customer service for this.
How Free Casino Slot Games No Download No Registration Works
Getting access to free casino slot games no download no registration in 2016 may seem like a blessing but the bitter truth here is that it's pretty hard to find any such resources. Most of the online casinos available nowadays ask you to download their shady software to play or to go through multiple registration forms where they acquire your personal information and sometimes even your credit card information as well. However, we will help you find some of the best platforms where you can enjoy unlimited free slot games with no download no registration hassle.
All you need is a powerful Internet Connection, your PC, laptop or a smartphone and you are all hooked up to practice your skills. As long as you are connected to the Internet and your PC is working fine with a good browser, you won't be interrupted. You can practice as much as you want with the free slot games and once you are confident enough, deposit money and gamble for real money. Nearly all online casinos available are 24/7 online with no strings and are 100% safe. They keep a special check to keep your privacy safe so that you can fully enjoy your games.
Free slot games also give you enough time or trial period before you decide to deposit real money. TO benefit you more, most of the reputed online casino platforms also give bonuses on deposit. For example, if you deposit $100 you are likely to get $100-$200 as an additional bonus to your balance which you can play and earn real money in no time. However, to gamble some real bucks you need to practice. So check out these free casino slot games no download no registration and start practicing to earn money.
Poker Texas Holdem, Where Did It All Begin?
Poker Texas Holdem is the most played type of poker there is today mainly because it gives players many opportunities to play strategically and win. So we have to wonder, who was the genius behind this magnificent game?
The game came to being in the early 20th century. As the name suggests, it is clear that it originated from Texas in the little town known as Robstown. However, when we visit the town, no one can pinpoint to one particular person who came up with the game.
In the late 1960's the game was introduced to the rest of the world via Las Vegas by some Texas poker lovers including Crandell Addington, Doyle Brunson and Amarillo Slim. Before this games such as draw and stud were the most popular in casinos. These men must have seen how this "thinking man's game" was a goldmine. The game was only played in Downtown Las Vegas in 'The Golden Nugget' where not many high-stake players visited. After about two years the rest of Las Vegas got to know about it as it was played in high-end casinos.
The greatest milestone in the game has been the World Series of Poker (WSP) held annually since 1971. This was an idea born in the minds of a father and son, Benny and Jack Binion. They saw a great opportunity, just like Crandell Addington, and decided to take a risk. They purchased the rights to the Gambling Fraternity Convention, changed the name to World Series of Poker and started hosting Texas Holdem at their casino yearly. The game's popularity is now attributed to this annual tournament that has poker lovers traveling from far and wide.
Now, a lot of literature on it has come up. It is the main game in the World Poker Tour (WPT). It is played even on phones and via the internet. Who would have thought it would come so far?
How to learn poker and become a champion in it?
Poker is a fun activity that is enjoyed by all at offline and online casinos. Some of us get good at games once we begin playing, but some do not. That is why some guys need the professional poker tips.
Poker is an amazing experience no matter if it's played in a casino in traditional style or in your house with some of your friends. So, here are some really interesting poker tips and which you can see below:
- Paying attention to each round on the poker table can benefit you more than spending hours in just reading books or articles on gambling.
- Make sure that you do not pay lots for the draws because this is not always very profitable to chase such draws.
- Jumping into high limits is not right if this is something that could not be afforded.
- If you are not a reckless risk taker, then do not make bets for large amounts as the chance of winning or losing is not totally in the hand of the player.
Knowing all little and the big rules of poker are definitely sure tip that anyone could use. This is because all gambling games are different and have rules that are distinct. That is why when someone is quite thorough with poker playing rules, is likely to perform better in the game.
Remember that suited cards are not always the best because it improves such hand by just a little as two percent than the hand which is not suited. So the benefit of the suited card isn't that great.
Using Poker Tracker could be a good idea because it has become the ultimate tool for playing poker online. You can nicely get stats regarding the opponents and track losses and wins.
Decide for the position that you want to have because it plays a big role on whether you win your hand or not.
I hope that the above professional poker tips will help you improve your poker game, and you'll start winning on the table easily.

A very virtuous person who was always lost in the thoughts of Mother Abirami, his speckless devotion attracted the envy of some. They thus to cause trouble for Battar, gave false informations to the then ruling king Saraboji. The king hence asked Battar the description of the day as to whether it was a full moon day or a no moon day. Battar whose mind was lost with Abirami came up with the wrong answer that it was a full-moon day which actually was a no moon day.
The king in his fury commanded to slay Battar for coming up with the wrong answer.
Hence Battar sat on a suspended platform supported by hundred ropes under which a huge pyre was raised. His only hope was Mother Abirami and his devotion took shape of hundred songs. At the completion of each stanza he cut a rope to end his life at the end of the hundredth song. Mother Abirami's heart melted for his devotion and she delayed not a moment to throw one of her earrings towards the sky that shone as the moon on a no moon day thereby saving the life of Her ardent devotee. Is She not the cooling radiance of the moon that
Abirami Andhadhi is a wonderful composition written in the Andhadhi pattern with the commencing of each para with the ending word of the previous para. It is still sung and chanted in devotion in many Tamil homes

I love teaching and I love helping kids learn but I'm sick to death of people who have absolutely no concept of what that means having so much power over what happens in the classroom.
Our district just spent a TON of money on a new reading program that is common core aligned (don't get me started on the Common Core standards!) hence my training today. I'm sure it's good, but is it really worth the amount they charge. It's Journeys, BTW
I hope it isn't too political to say that companies like Pearson have way too much say in education policy. I love teaching and I love helping kids learn but I'm sick to death of people who have absolutely no concept of what that means having so much power over what happens in the classroom.
I completely agree with this. I'm afraid to see what my job is going to turn into in the next few years. Since money talks, I'm afraid that we will be forced to teach more and more canned lessons (created by and purchased from Pearson) in preparation for canned testing (also created by and purchased from Pearson), and any spark that I once generated in the classroom will be snuffed out. I can see classrooms becoming giant computer labs with paid "guides" who walk up and down rows, monitoring the kids' progress.
I love what I do (well, I do hate correcting papers, but I love the actual teaching part), but I have to admit that I sometimes wonder what else I might do with my life if what I think is going to happen in education comes to pass.
h0peless, I agree with you about Pearson. They're providing all of our standardized tests this year. We're now testing from the beginning of March right up to the end of school in late May. That 1/3 of the year! Absolutely ridiculous!!
jrc, so you're kids would be the same as our Affective Needs kids? The toughest bunch to crack but my absolute favorite classes! Love those kids to pieces. Thankfully, none of them have tried to throw a PC at me.
It's hard to stay positive when there are so many negative feelings/new stories/generalizations toward teachers.
I often say I am tired of someone who doesn't know what I do everyday telling me how to do my job. They do this because they sat in a classroom when they were a kid. I wouldn't tell a waitress how to do his/her job because I was one many years ago. I wouldn't tell a bus driver how to do their job just because I sat on a bus a long time ago.
Sorry for the slight vent, but I can't do it in "real life."
I love being with the kids and the teaching part of my job. The constant feeling of not doing enough or doing it right is wearing on me now.
I left teaching K-12 at the end of 2003 to pursue teaching at the college level. I teach teachers who are working on their Master's Degree so I'm still very involved in K-12 education.
My building does not have AC.

If first impressions are any indication, offensive tackle Luke Joeckel is on his way to becoming everything the Jaguars thought he would be when they made him the second pick in the NFL draft.
Coach Gus Bradley lowered the curtain on the Jaguars rookie minicamp Sunday with a positive review on how Joeckel performed.
"It was good. We were really pleased," Bradley said. "We're hard on him with our techniques and things like that, but he's really smooth, really athletic. I know [offensive line coach] George [Yarno] really likes what he's seen from him. He already has the mindset of being a pro. He has a certain demeanor inside and when he comes out here, he's all business, all business."
Yarno echoed those comments.
"He has excellent movement skills, great balance. He's a very smart kid. He's working hard to get better. He's going to get better. He's fast, competitive. Love what I've seen so far,'' he said.
Joeckel was expected to dominate in the camp because he was playing against other rookies. The challenge for him was moving from the left side to the right side and he seemed to adjust to the move.
"It's feeling a lot better than I thought it would,'' he said.
Yarno said they'll also give him work back on the left side after he gets comfortable on the right side and Joeckel said that will be no problem.
"I can go back there any time,'' he said. "That's really where my comfort zone is."

Bruce Davenport Jr's artworks celebrating New Orleans high school marching bands are featured in three pages of the September issue of Harper's Magazine. One piece on the first page is printed upside-down. It's a mistake, but it could be seen as a distress signal for band programs that the school system has been weakening and destroying with budget cuts for the last couple of decades.
HBO's Treme is starting to catch up with the backstory of The Whole Gritty City. The musician character Antoine Battiste is starting to work as an assistant music teacher and band director at a New Orleans school. And at the end of the last episode, the shocking news came through that Dinerral Shavers had been shot and killed. Shavers, the snare drummer for The Hot 8 Brass Band, had just started a new marching band at L.E. Rabouin High School. He was killed just a week before the instruments began to arrive. He was so beloved by the young band members that in honor of his dream for them, they pushed past their grief and figured out how to play their instruments and march in the Mardi Gras parades less than two months later.
Another character in Treme, the "sissy bounce" rapper Katey Red (played by (her)self) was actually the coach of the Rabouin High School majorettes. He had secretly taught himself baton twirling as a boy, and was in great demand among high school majorette squads.
Bear, the young Roots of Music trumpeter featured in The Whole Gritty City, will appear in episodes of the upcoming second season of HBO's Treme. You can get a glimpse of him holding a trumpet 49 seconds into this tease:
Thanks to nearly 300 backers we have reached our goal of raising $20,000 to help complete editing the film. This will make a crucial difference. The Kickstarter page will be up and accepting pledges until April 11, and we will make good use of any addition support that comes in. Thanks to all of you who believe in this film.

Altered Suitcase
I started a group with the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group, this was not a swap, but a group that we create our own Altered Suitcase and then shared photo's. I started with a vintage suitcase, that was my Mother In Laws, she was going to throw it away last year and I told her I would love to have it. The inside of the suitcase was in really bad shape so I took everything out and made a new backing for it and added drawer pulls to be able to hang things while it is open, I use it as a display for my many collectables. I had such a great time doing this. Thanks for visiting me today, have a wonderful week. Hugs, Terri

Saviynt is a leading provider of Cloud Security and Identity Governance solutions. Saviynt enables enterprises to secure applications, data and infrastructure in a single platform for Cloud (Office 365, AWS, Salesforce, Workday) and Enterprise (SAP, Oracle EBS). Saviynt is pioneering IGA 2.0 by integrating advanced risk analytics and intelligence with fine-grained privilege management.
– Featuring Amit Saha, COO and Yash Prakash, VP of Products
Hybrid IT of on-prem and cloud presents a new set of security challenges. We'll look at these unique security challenges and show how Saviynt Cloud Access Governance and Intelligence Solution addresses them.
Saviynt provides Splunk applications to protect critical data in Office 365, Box, SAP, Epic, HANA and Hadoop. Just deploy the Saviynt application on your existing Splunk infrastructure (on premise or on the cloud), follow a few easy steps to integrate with your application and let Saviynt do its magic.
Security model in SAP HANA is very different from that of traditional SAP. Given that enterprise (read non-SAP) applications and end users will have direct access to critical data in SAP HANA, it is critical to design and administer its security model adequately. However, those familiar with SAP security model will face an uphill task in correctly designing SAP HANA's unique privilege model.
Saviynt's ACCESS PROTECT TM for SAP HANA simplifies privilege design and management by enabling users to define simple business and technical rules. The system then automatically converts those rules in to different types of privileges (including dynamic APs, System, SQL, etc.) and SAP HANA roles to secure the views, tables, schemas, etc.

Outcomes of a recent study by the Environmental Protection Authority prove that Koalas have a significant preference for larger trees and more mature forest, with Koala populations found to be collapsing in recently logged areas.
"The Government now has the evidence that logging is bad for Koalas and needs to take immediate action to identify and protect the remaining Koala colonies that are in public forests threatened by logging. Every day that the Forestry Corporation is allowed to go on logging Koala's preferred feed trees brings them closer to extinction. It has to stop now. We call on Premier Mike Baird to urgently intervene to save NSW's Koalas", said NEFA spokesperson Dailan Pugh.
SOS Real koalas
SOS: Virtual Protection for Virtual Koalas Won't Save a Species
"It beggars belief that money is being spent on models for koalas that ignores whether an area has been logged or not, and the age of the trees in the area concerned. Virtual habitat might be good for virtual koalas, but we want to see actual koalas protected"

Climate Emergency
Ending logging of our public forests is part of the solution
With the climate emergency rapidly escalating, north coast conservation groups are calling on the NSW and Commonwealth Governments to immediately end the logging of public forests to allow them to maximise their carbon sequestration and storage.
Forest Slaughter
There is a new threat to our public native forests: an extreme clear fell logging proposal.
The new logging licences currently being negotiated by the Forestry Corporation and the Environment Protection Authority, known at the IFOA or Integrated Forestry Operations Approval, are a major step backwards for our forests. They want to zone 150,000 hectares of public forests from Grafton to Taree into an intensive logging zone where clear felling is the norm. North of Grafton and south of Taree the plan is for a massive intensification of logging.
Only a few trees will be required to be protected. This would turn these public native forests into pseudo-plantations, drying up streams and devastating wildlife habitat. The koala and 32 other animal species that are threatened with extinction will be seriously affected.
In the Clarence and Richmond catchments the proposed new rules will see thousands of hectares of stream side forest and threatened species habitat become available for logging.
Dailan Pugh has done a detailed analysis of the impacts. The full report can be found here:
We now need to spread the word about this. Standby for campaign actions and be ready to write submissions opposing it when the new IFOA is put on public exhibition.
EPA Assurances Rejected
Assurances by NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) that 'all is well' in the region's native forests have been rejected, as "not believable, nor based on reality", North East Forest Alliance (NEFA) spokesperson Mr John Corkill, said today. The comments are the latest in a major public dispute over the EPA's support for proposed logging "trials" at massively increased levels of intensity.
A vote of 'no confidence' in the Environment Protection Authority (EPA) has been carried by the North East Forest Alliance (NEFA) following revelations that the EPA propose to approve widespread clear-felling of public forests in north-east NSW, reduce protection of headwater streams, and remove the need to protect habitat for many Threatened species, including the Koala.
State Government blocks attempts to protect koala habitat
Attempts by Ballina Council to protect koala habitat and other high conservation value vegetation have been blocked by the NSW Government.
The North Coast Environment Council and North East Forest Alliance support Ballina Shire Council's attempts to provide needed regulation of logging on private land.
Read moreGUTTING OF VEGETATION AND SPECIES PROTECTION AN ENVIRONMENTAL DISASTER
The North East Forest Alliance has condemned commitments by the Liberal-National Coalition today to repeal the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 and the Native Vegetation Act 2003.
"The proposed changes would be an environmental disaster and setback conservation in NSW 25 years," said NEFA spokesperson, Dailan Pugh.
A promise to return 'third party' legal rights, to allow "any person" to enforce the logging industry's compliance with environmental laws, made by NSW Labor Leader Luke Foley today, has been welcomed by the North East Forest Alliance, as 'a necessary measure', due to what NEFA says is a major breakdown in the regulation of logging in publicly owned native forests in north east NSW.
"In the interests of better forest management we urge Premier Baird to match this promise. The NSW Forestry Corporation has repeatedly broken the rules governing logging, designed to protect streams, soils and threatened species, while the NSW Environment Protection Authority has 'turned a blind eye'. Allowing independent enforcement is the only way to restore integrity to the system of environmental protection," North East Forest Alliance spokesperson, John Corkill said today.
Logging: a highly subsidised industry
Logging Industry
There are 918,145 ha of State forests in north east NSW (Lower and Upper North East RFA regions). A total of 306.472ha (33%) of these forests are zoned for protection in Forest Management Zones (1, 2, 3A) which prohibit logging. Some 40,338ha is claimed to be hardwood plantations and 37,048ha is pine plantations.
These forests belong to the people of NSW and are managed by the Forestry Corporation of NSW (AKA Forestry Commission, State Forests and Forests NSW). In the 1970's the intent was to cut over the forests of the coastal plain and dramatically reduce logging until the regrowth matured in 2020-2040, keeping up sawlog supplies by one-off unsustainable logging of oldgrowth forest in steeper country and on the tablelands until pine plantations matured in 2010.
In the 1980's the coastal forests began to be over-logged to maintain revenue and pacify sawmillers, while community alarm at the depletion of oldgrowth forests began campaigns to stop the liquidation logging of oldgrowth. The 1990's saw a greater emphasis on reducing logging to a sustainable level while creating an adequate reserve system encompassing most oldgrowth forest and wilderness. The reserve system was doubled and most oldgrowth and wilderness protected on public lands.
In the 2000's the State and Commonwealth Governments ignored evidence that yields were over-estimated and issued Wood Supply Agreements to millers for free at intentionally unsustainable levels. Since then NSW taxpayers have spent tens of millions of dollars helping mills modernise, paying compensation to millers for inability to supply, buying back commitments from millers for timber that never existed, buying timber from private land to meet commitments, and establishing plantations. Despite this sawlogs from public native forests continue to decline and the 2020's will see massive reductions. (see The Battle for Sustainable Yields is Lost).
Export woodchipping began from north-east NSW in the 1980s and because of the massive volumes, low manufacturing coasts and quick returns proved to be very profitable for millers. It was stopped in 2013 due to competition from overseas eucalypt plantations and an inability to get independent environmental certification for north east NSWs logging. Now there is the even bigger threat of burning native forests in furnaces for electricity (see A History of Export Woodchipping from North East NSW).

Google Translate is definitely one of Google's most powerful tools. According to Google, over 500 million people translate over 100 billion words each day via Google Translate and now Google has made it even easier for Android users!
Google has just implemented a new feature into their Translate app that allows you to translate words and phrases without having to switch apps! You simply highlight the words that you're wanting to translate from your current app, click the 3 dots that pop up and voilà, Translate is up and ready to go.
Now there are currently some restrictions to this new feature. The biggest hurdle, currently, is that this handy feature is only available on devices running Android 6.0. In other words, you need to be using a Nexus device to be able to use this feature. Secondly, you need to have the latest Translate app which should be rolling out to all regions this week if it hasn't already. Lastly, it appears that only some apps have this capability currently. I've tried using the feature on a few different apps and only about 50% of them supported the new feature. I'm sure this will be more widely available in the coming months.

The goal of the action-/strategy-mix Flight Control is simple: land as many planes and helicopters as possible to get the highest score on the available airfields. But instead of controlling the aircraft directly, the player takes on the role of a flight control officer who has to guide the aircraft to the landing strip without them colliding with other aircraft in the air.To do so, the player has to touch the aircraft he wants to guide and draw its flight path on the map. The aircraft will then follow that path until it is either told otherwise, successfully lands or crashes with another aircraft subsequently ending the game. To make things more difficult, each plane or helicopter has a color and needs to land on the landing strip associated with it. Some aircraft are also faster than other ones and sometimes an emergency landing happens with a plane incoming on a predefined path that can not be altered.
The game also features a multiplayer-mode for two player in which the players have to land the aircraft associated to their screen and send the ones needed by the other player to his screen.

Verified Buyer Reviewed by joebiker from Michigan on Wednesday, February 8, 2017The Moose Creek Carbon Creek Hoodie Jacket - Fleece Lining (For Men) looks to be a great product.
I bought 3 of them, for myself & 2 adult sons, ordered (2) in 2xl & (1) in XL.
I've ordeded many clothing items from Sierra Trading Post in the last 20 yrs,
most shirts have been in 2 XL, as I like the extra room afforded me in that size.
I can/do sometimes wear XL, ,but a little tight across the shoulders. This jacket , in 2 XL fit..snugly, in
the chest stomach area,something I've not experienced before. As my other shirts fit comfortably,
it's NOT due to sinter weight gain.These jackets are fit 'snugger", not what I want in a jacket.
The heavy fleece is nice & woekmanship seems good, but both the 2XL's are being returned.

Question & Answer
Haven't had mine long enough to have to wash it, but can offer some advice from much laundry experience. :)
WASHING an item doesn't cause it to shrink DRYING the item does.
Situation is worsened by drying on the HIGH heat setting when using a gas or electric dryer.
If I wash any item I think might shrink, ( & I don't want it to ) I put it on a hanger & let it let dry by room air, slowly.
This method has worked well on my 100% cotton chamois shirts, which I hang to dry.(after shrinking some in a dryer)
With some items that have fleece, using a dryer on a low setting will fluff up the fleece when it's dry or almost dry. -
No. It just looses the softness on the inside.
Washed it in cold water and dried it on low. No shrinkage!
No fleece in the sleeves, it is lined with polyester which is smooth so your shirt sleeve does not bunch up.
Ubforuntaly we do not have the hoodie in large-black, sorry for the inconvenience.

Wedding Photography...Best camera?
Body-wise, you're fine. Personally, I like my D7100 for weddings paired with Sigma's 17-50 and 50-150, though before I got those, I did just fine with my 16-85 and 18-105 kit lenses. I've been playing with the idea of moving to M4/3 though for portability reasons. The lenses are quite a bit smaller and optically just as good.
