As a woman, your body goes through many trials. You especially put it to the test when you have children. It can take time for your figure to snap back. Aging will have an impact on you as well as you notice changes that are going on with your body. There are many ways that you can help yourself to feel your best, but there is one area that you can't correct on your own. If you are having trouble with the delicate tissues of your vagina, it can make you extremely uncomfortable. ThermiVa® can help you to feel better.
What is ThermiVa® All About?
ThermiVa® uses radiofrequency energy in order to heat the tissues of your vagina at a carefully monitored temperature. It is a non-invasive treatment that can help you to rejuvenate the sensitive tissues of your vagina that are troubling you. You are not alone in this problem. It is common for women to feel dryness, irritation and looseness. You may even be bothered by female incontinence because of the irritation that can also affect the urethra. It's hard to be intimate with your partner when you are so uncomfortable. ThermiVa® can restore your feminine wellness.
Is This Treatment Right for You?
If you are struggling with a lack of lubrication in your vagina, ThermiVa® could help. This is a common problem as menopause approaches. At this point in time, you have hormonal fluctuations and a decrease in collagen production. This can cause your tissues to become loose and feel irritated. Childbirth can damage the delicate tissues of your vagina as well. When such a sensitive area is causing discomfort for you, you need to find a solution. ThermiVa® could be the answer.
Why Consider Vaginal Rejuvenation?
ThermiVa® gives you an alternative that can spare you from surgery. You can also avoid hormone creams that can only be used for a limited time. When you are looking for answers and simply want to find relief for the most private part of your body, this is a simple solution. ThermiVa® can help you when you are struggling with issues that have affected your vagina.
Make an appointment at Santé Medical Aesthetics to learn more about ThermiVa®. You deserve to feel your best. Don't let another day go by feeling miserable. ThermiVa® is an innovative approach that will stimulate collagen production and trigger health circulation to a sensitive part of your body.

I wonder whether it's meaningful to include a covariate if I am doing an repeated-measure analysis without any between-subject variable.
In my example, I have 2 within-subject variables (island/nonisland sentence structure & plausible/implausible semantics), and the dependent variable is reading time (as the attachment). (Please ignore the very small sample size)
I don't think adding subjects' proficiency (variable: QPT) makes sense in this case because what I am comparing is the different conditions experienced by the same participant(that is, across columns, not across rows).
Am I right?

All Belizean national parks have hiking trails that showcase the birdlife and fine examples of local plants and animals.
Most trails are designed in loops easily bringing visitors back to the starting point and will have the activity level clearly marked. Some places have self guiding trails with a guide while the favored choice is via the use of a local guide who will point out the spontaneous appearance of birds and wildlife and can relate traditional uses of local plants.

I've written a lot about deep breathing techniques and offered several guided breathing practice sessions because we do it all day, every day. Learning how to breathe well therefore gives you the power to shift your state of mind and reinvigorate your body's systems whenever you choose.
However, breathing well can go far beyond a little relaxation and peace of mind, and take health and well-being to the next level by boosting the results of any exercise programme. Starting with a few minutes of rhythmic, smooth and measured breathing can warm up the body and oxygenate the cells that comprise your muscles. While ending an exercise session by bringing your focus back to deep breathing can help you cool down and transit into your daily activities with a calm state of mind. Maintaining deep, diaphragm breathing throughout exercise helps generate relaxed power and stamina.
Breathing Is the Master
The primary concern when combining deep breathing with any physical motion is to keep it relaxed and free from strain. To achieve this, you can think of your breath cycle as the master and the physical motion as the slave. So, for example, as the in- or out-breath tappers off, so too does the physical motion.
This synchronisation between your breathing and movement allows:
- Your breathing pattern to remain relaxed and free from strain of any kind.
- Your movement to be influenced by your breathing instead of the movement influencing your breathing into some erratic pattern that can strain the nerves and cause.
If you watch a professional sprinter breathe in and out in slow motion, you can see that their movement is coordinated to the diaphragm moving up and down, sucking and pushing air in and out of the lungs. This not only allows oxygen to penetrate the cells, but keeps the runner relaxed for the duration of the exercise. In fact, lack of oxygen delivery to the muscles is precisely what causes fatigue and takes you out of the game before you're ready.
In Tao movements arts like qi gong, tai chi and bagua, you're looking to achieve relaxed motion that lulls the nerves into a state of let go. So focusing on deep, diaphragm breathing can become an effective portal for boosting the release of toxins and maintaining your stamina throughout your training session.
How-to Supercharge Exercise Results with Deep Breathing
First, practise breathing by itself–either sitting, standing or even lying down–to open up your breathing capacity and relax your body and mind.
Next, guide your breathing in a way that allows the whole sphere to be engaged. If you do not know this methodology, read my blog on how to create a spherical breath.
Once you feel the sphere is active, with the smoothest exchange between the in- and out-breaths and when the out- and in-breaths are even in length, stand up and assume the hug-a-tree qi gong posture (see image above). The transition from sitting or lying down may cause you to lose the flow you had to some degree, so just relax, continue to breathe and try to get back to the rhythmic flow you established initially.
Let your next in-breath expand the "ring" of your arms physically. On the out-breath, let your arms return to the beginning position. Play with this for a few breaths, watching your breathing pattern and making sure you don't force or strain at any point in the exercise–in mind or body. If you find you have a tendency to push at any point, then back off a little and don't try to breathe so deeply. The flexibility of your diaphragm and lung capacity will grow in time with patience and dedicated, consistent practice.
Then, put your attention on your spine. On the in-breath, the tailbone drops, the neck rises and the spine expands back slightly. On the out-breath, everything returns to the beginning position (you're still in the hug-a-tree qi gong posture). Continue this motion for several breaths.
You are simply leading with your breathing while attempting to balance the spherical opening of both the breath and the physical motion of your body. Your movement will start out being very small. Slowly and incrementally increase the range of physical motion while keeping all motion connected to and driven by the breath.
If you feel the movement disconnect from or move ahead of your breathing–however slightly–then reduce your physical range of motion and reconnect to your breathing without a bunch of negative self-talk.
Relaxed Breathing in Qi gong, Tai Chi + Bagua for tao Arts Students
You might practice this breathing exercise in the hug-a-tree qi gong posture for some weeks, then move on to simple nei gong exercises, such as Cloud Hands from the Energy Gates Qi Gong system or Circling Hands Qi Gong (follow along to a guided practice session). Once you feel you have stabilised your breathing as the leader in each incremental increase of difficulty in physical exercise, then, ultimately, you will want to apply this to your qi gong, tai chi and/or bagua training.
Safety First
Whatever you do, do NOT use the range of physical motion to increase the size or length of your breathing cycle. Breathing is always the leader. Otherwise, you can can put far too much strain on the breath, which will cause the nerves to shut down and elicit a stress response in the body–the opposite of the results you're looking to achieve with deep breathing techniques.
Most anything in life worth accomplishing takes time, dedication, patience and persistence to develop. Be kind to your body and take it easy. A little consistent practice will yield faster and more effective results than a lot of practice intermittently.

ONE of the "stars" of the latest, much-anticipated Harry Potter blockbuster due to be released nationwide next week hails from the north Cotswolds.
The pale blue Royal Enfield motorcyle and Watsonian sidecar which features in the seventh Harry Potter movie- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 -have been supplied by Blockley-based company Watsonian Squire.
In one scene the vehicle is seen ridden at breakneck speed across London by Hagrid, played by Robbie Coltrane, while Harry, played by Daniel Radcliffe, grimly clings on for dear life.
Ben Matthews, director and co-owner of Watsonian Squire, which is based at Northwick Park Business Centre, said all the firm's 20 workers were excited about the new movie.
Ben said: "We were contacted by the company that sources vehicles for films."
Originally the film makers only wanted sidecars but when they saw the Royal Enfields they ended up buying seven complete motorbike and sidecar "outfits".
"One ended up in a lake, one was made lighter for a flying scene and one was modified for a stunt," said Ben, whose team has had to keep quiet about the movie tie-in for the past 18 months.
"It all very exciting, " said Ben, whose sidecars are expected to be used at the London premiere today. "We have been helping get them roadworthy," he added.
Ben, who lives in Evesham, admitted that he has never read the Harry Potter books or seen any of the movies, though he said his son, Troy, aged 12, is an avid fan.
"I will have to take the kids to see it," said Ben, whose firm has also supplied sidecars for The Two Fat Ladies TV cookery show and Charlie Boorman's travel documentaries.
Film star Ewan McGregor recently bought one of the Cotswold firm's sidecars which was shipped to his home in California. A version of the "Harry Potter" motorbike and sidecar will feature on Watsonian Squire's stand at the upcoming Motorcycle Live exhibition at Birmingham NEC.

Deep learning is a committed approach to learning. It is a process of constructing and interpreting new knowledge in light of prior cognitive structures and experiences, which can be applied in new, unfamiliar contexts. Deep learning produces learning that lasts a lifetime; and it results in better quality learning and more profound understanding. In contrast, research studies show that most university and college students today take a surface approach to learning, and much of that learning is lost after examinations.

This application is a continuation-in-part of my copending application Ser. No. 747,122, filed Jun. 20, 1985.
The present invention relates generally to clamping arrangements having provision for connection to ropes, hooks or similar retainers and more particularly to such retainer fitted clamping arrangements formed primarily from extrusions.
The abovementioned copending application discloses a two piece extruded clamp particularly suited to attaching a cap or cover to the bed of a pickup truck. Pickup trucks are frequently used for light hauling, transporting livestock and carrying a wide variety of other loads. Everything from motorcycles to the family dog may, from time to time, be seen in the bed of a conventional pickup truck and many of these loads should be tied down as by rope, straps or elastic cords, or otherwise fastened in place or restrained within the truck bed. It is frequently possible to find a loop, hole or post to facilitate tying a load in place in the truck bed, but such makeshift arrangements are inconvenient and often include passing a rope or cord through a hole having sharp edges frequently resulting in their either not being used at all or at least inadequate fastening of the load. Provision of a readily accessible and easily used attachment point would enhance the likelihood of a truck load being properly secured within the truck bed, and provision of such an attachment point employing a closed loop ring which is not readily misplaced or displaced would be highly desirable.
Among the several objects of the present invention may be noted the provision of an adjustable clamp possessing the desirable attributes of the clamp of the aforementioned copending application which also provides a readily accessibly attachment point for ropes, hooks and similar load securing arrangements; the provision of a clamp with a D-ring affixed thereto; the provision of a technique for pivotably joining a first member formed from a sliced portion of an extrusion and a second member having a generally cylindrical section; the provision of a D-ring attachment to facilitate securing loads in the bed of a pick-up truck; and the provision of a unique technique for pivotably attaching a part to an extruded member. These as well as other objects and advantageous features of the present invention will be in part apparent and in part pointed out hereinafter.
In general, a method of making a retaining ring clamp includes the extrusion of a first member of generally uniform L-shaped cross-sectional configuration with a first pressure pad near one end of the L, a portion of a hinge structure near the other end of the L, and a concave generally cylindrical channel intermediate the L ends. A second member of generally uniform cross-sectional configuration with a second pressure pad near one end and a second portion of a hinge structure adapted to slidingly mate with the portion of the hinge structure of the first member is similarly extruded. A section of a retaining ring is then placed in the cylindrical channel and the edge portions of the first member are crimped closed adjacent the cylindrical channel to capture the retaining ring within the cylindrical channel. The first and second members are then slidingly and thereafter threadedly joined to complete formation of the clamp. The method of extruding the first member may include extruding a blank for the first member to include an extruded channel forming the generally C-shaped cross section with the C ends extending from the first member as relatively narrow lips followed by slicing the extrusion in a plane generally perpendicular to the direction of extrusion.
Also in general and in one form of the invention, an adjustable clamp has first and second members joined for limited relative motion. The first and second members have first and second pressure pads respectively with the pressure pads moving toward and away from one another as the first and second members are subjected to said relative motion. A D-shaped retaining ring is pivotably fixed to one of the members.
FIG. 1 is a side elevation view of a clamp in an illustrative environment and incorporating the present invention in one form;
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the clamp of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 is a view in cross-section along lines 3--3 of FIG. 1.
Corresponding reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views of the drawing.
The exemplifications set out herein illustrate a preferred embodiment of the invention in one form thereof and such exemplifications are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the disclosure or the scope of the invention in any manner.
The abovementioned copending application addresses the problem of attaching a (typically fiberglass or metal) cover or cap, frequently weighing over 100 pounds, to the open rear body portion of a pickup truck and provides a unique clamping arrangement for solving that problem. Referring to the drawing and particularly to FIG. 1, the adjustable clamp is formed using two extrusions 10 and 14, with extrusion 10 having a body portion 16 and an arm 20 while extrusion 14 is generally U-shaped having two sides 29 and 30 joined together by a bight 32. The first member or extrusion 10 comprises a slice of an extrusion of generally uniform L-shaped cross-sectional configuration with the first pressure pad 24 near one end of the L, a portion 54 of a hinge structure near the other end of the L, and a concave generally cylindrical channel intermediate the L ends. The second member or extrusion similarly comprises a slice of an extrusion of generally uniform cross-sectional configuration with the second pressure pad 34 near one end and a second portion 50 and 52 of a hinge structure adapted to slidingly mate with the portion 54 of the hinge structure of the first member. Extrusions 10 and 14 are joined together by a retaining structure including these integrally extruded hinge portions or retaining members, one consisting of a web 50 and an enlarged bead 52 of greater thickness than the thickness of the web 50 along the edge of the web, and the other formed as a channel 54. The retaining members may be easily joined by longitudinal sliding of one extrusion in the direction of extrusion relative to the other, but once bolt 42 is passed through hole 41 and its threaded shaft is threaded into extrusion 14, the extrusions no longer slide relative to one another and are locked together in the direction of extrusion while remaining free to pivot about axis 71 in a hinge-like manner within a limited range. Channel 54 and the channel which receives the ring 26 are described as being cylindrical in shape, but both are open along an edge and less than a complete closed cylinder. Since the two members may be slid together, the channel 54 may be somewhat greater than hemicylindrical, however, for the closed loop ring 26, no such sliding into its corresponding groove is possible and the groove must be limited to a nearly hemicylindrical configuration to receive the ring from the side rather than axially and subsequently be crimped closed to capture the ring. There is a pressure pad 24 on arm 20 for engaging rail 68 of the truck cap and a pressure pad 34 for engaging a portion 72 of the truck bed. The pressure pads may be extruded serrated ends of the respective extrusions. The clamp is configured so that there is a clearance space between the arm 20 and the extrusion 14 sufficient to receive portions of the bed and cap while still applying the clamping force between the pads 24 and 34. The range of adjustment of the distance between pads 24 and 34, while sufficient for the purposes of the present invention, is limited and significantly less than that of a conventional C-clamp of comparable size since bolt 42 pivots with extrusion 14 relative to extrusion 10 and therefore migrates vertically as shown on the drawing in elongated hole 41 as the bolt is threaded into extrusion 14. Either the elongation of the hole or the length of the bolt may limit bolt migration during clamping.
The adjustable clamp is formed from slices of first and second extrusions with the slicing being substantially perpendicular to the direction of extrusion and in the plane of the paper as viewed in FIG. 1. The first extrusion 10 is of a uniform generally L-shaped cross-sectional configuration and comprises a body portion 16 with a hole 41 therethrough, an arm 20 extruded along one edge of the body portion extending substantially perpendicular therefrom, and a first pressure pad 24 on the arm. The first extrusion 10 includes a pair of extruded sockets, one forming a part of the hinge structure for joining the two extrusions and the other forming a channel for receiving the retaining ring 26. The first and second members are subjected to a relative pivotal motion about axis 71 as bolt 42 is tightened or loosened while the retaining ring, illustrated here as a D-shaped retaining ring, is pivotably fixed to the first member 10 and pivots within a limited range about the axis 69. The D-shaped ring includes a straight segment or cylindrical portion 36 and an arcuate segment 37, both segments being of generally circular cross-sectional configuration, and the first extrusion 10 includes a concave generally cylindrical channel for receiving the straight segment of the D-shaped ring. The ring 26 may then pivot about the axis 69 of the cylindrical channel. The first and second extrusions or members 10 and 14 are joined for relative pivotal motion about axis 71 with that axis of pivotal motion being parallel to the axis 69 of the cylindrical channel. The closed loop retaining ring 26 is pivotably fastened to the first extrusion by deforming or crimping the lips 28 and 38 toward one another after the cylindrical portion 36 of the D-ring is seated in the channel. The entire lip structure could be deformed to trap the D-ring, or as best seen in FIG. 3, only the lateral tip portions 28, 38, 40 and 44 may be crimped since the forces on the D-ring during use typically pull against the body portion rather than the crimped regions and there is generally no heavy stress on the crimp.
The second extrusion is of a U-shaped cross-sectional configuration and comprises a first side 29, a second side 30 with a threaded hole 31 therethrough and a bight 32 joining the first side 29 to the second side 30. There is a second pressure pad 34 on the first side 29 facing the first pressure pad 34. A hinge-like retaining structure joins the first and second extrusions and comprises a first retaining member comprising a surface portion 54 extruded along the body portion 16 of the first extrusion adjacent the edge of the body portion 16 remote from the arm 20, and a second retaining member 50 and 52 extruded along the second extrusion 14. One of the retaining members, the second retaining member as depicted in the drawing, comprises an integrally extruded web 50 terminating in an integrally extruded bead 52 of greater thickness than the thickness of the web 50. The web 50 of the one retaining member extends from the second extrusion near the bight 32. The other retaining member comprising a pair of integrally extruded portions or lips 12 and 18 partially enclosing a channel 54 of larger cross-sectional size than the bead 52. The integrally extruded portions extend partially together and define therebetween a gap having a width that is greater than the thickness of the web 50 and less than the thickness of the bead 52 so that the bead 52 can be inserted lengthwise into the channel 54 to join the first and second members together. Thus, the body portion 16 and the second side 30 comprise juxtaposed members with the second side 30 extending substantially perpendicular to the arm 20 with the end of the second side 30 being spaced from the arm 20 thereby to provide a space for receiving a workpiece such as the truck bed portions 68 and 72. The hole 41 through the body portion 16 is in alignment with the threaded hole 31 through the second side 30. The arm of the first extrusion and the second side are transversely located and separated, and the hole through the body portion is a clearance hole located between the first retaining member and the arm 20. The body portion of the first extrusion facing the second side of the second extrusion is generally flat. A bolt 42 having a head and a threaded shaft extends through the clearance hole 41 and threadedly engages the threaded hole 31 to urge the juxtaposed members toward each other, whereby the first and second extrusions pivot relatively to each other about the bead.
The method of making a retaining ring clamp of the type thus far described should now be clear. A first member 10 of generally uniform L-shaped cross-sectional configuration is extruded with a first pressure pad 24 near one end of the L, a portion of the hinge structure in the form of groove 54 near the other end of the L, and a concave generally cylindrical channel for receiving the D-ring intermediate the L ends. A second member 14 of generally uniform cross-sectional configuration is similarly extruded with a second pressure pad 34 near one end and a second portion of a hinge structure in the form of web 50 and the enlarged portion 52 along one edge adapted to slidingly mate with the portion of the hinge structure of the first member. A straight section 36 of the retaining ring 26 is inserted into the cylindrical channel. Thereafter, edge portions 28, 38, 40 and 44 of the first member 10 which are adjacent the cylindrical channel are crimped are bent toward one another to capture the retaining ring 26 within the cylindrical channel. The two extrusions 10 and 14 are joined by relative motion along axis 71 and thereafter threadedly joined by passing bolt 42 through the elongated hole 41 and into the threaded hole 31. The process of extruding the first member may include extruding an elongated blank for the first member which includes an extruded channel forming a generally C-shaped cross section with the C ends extending from the first member as relatively narrow lips 22. Then the extrusion is sliced in a plane generally perpendicular to the direction of extrusion to form the first member.
From the foregoing, it is now apparent that a novel arrangement has been disclosed meeting the objects and advantageous features set out hereinbefore as well as others, and that numerous modifications as to the precise shapes, configurations and details may be made by those having ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope thereof as set out by the claims which follow.

Iceland's authorities have set the goal of systematically reducing waste formation and channelling waste into reuse and recovery. The Act on Recycling Fees was passed in an effort to achieve this end, charging the Icelandic Recycling Fund (Úrvinnslusjóður) with creating conducive economic conditions for reuse and recovery, lowering the volume of waste going into final disposal and ensuring the proper disposal of hazardous substances.
The authorities aim is within few years to sort and recycle in to new products 15-20% of packaging waste. Furthermore their aim is that 50-65% of packaging waste in total will be recycled or reused.

For many hotels across the country, peak demand charges are costly and can represent up to 50 percent of the building's utility bill. Pairing solar plus energy storage allows both demand and energy savings. A solar PV installation can reduce the energy charge portion of your utility bill, but not the peak demand charge portion. That's where Sharp's SmartStorage® energy storage system comes in. Sharp's SmartStorage® energy storage system is a unique energy storage solution designed to reduce expensive peak demand charges. It can help hotel engineers better manage energy usage while also saving on electricity bills. Sharp's confidence in its product is reflected in its innovative 10-year asset management service agreement and 10-year demand reduction performance guarantee, an option available for all SmartStorage® system installations. If guaranteed performance is not met, Sharp will compensate for the deficit in promised peak demand reductions. Sharp SmartStorage® + solar is available with no money down financing options in specific locations. For more information visit www.sharpsmartstorage.com/hotels.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg has every right to her opinion. As a United States Supreme Court Justice, she gets paid for her opinion, but it should be an opinion based on her interpretation of the United States Constitution. Her recent public comments about likely Republican Party presidential nominee Donald Trump, are not becoming of a member of the bench at any level.
In a story printed in the July 11 edition of the New York Times, Ginsburg said "I can't imagine what the country would be – with Donald Trump as our president. For the country it could be four years. For the court, it could be – I don't even want to contemplate that."
The Times piece was an expansive interview with Ginsburg. Make no mistake, however, her Trump comments gave the "paper of record" another excuse to continue its daily assault on Trump, by making her specific remarks the lead to the story. That, by the way, is the newspaper's right. If it wants to batter conservatives every day with left leaning journalism, go for it. If it wants to assault Trump in print every day, go for it. The First Amendment – while it is still around – is what makes our nation tick. For Ginsburg, on the other hand, her action to exercise her opinion in public, personally critical of a presidential candidate, demonstrates bad judgement.
Imagine, a major league baseball umpire stating, "If the Cincinnati Reds hire so-and-so as manager, I can't imagine what the game would be." What chance would the Reds have of getting a fair call from that umpire? So presume if Trump was elected president. What fair chance would he have, if a case from his administration came before the high court?
At 83, Ginsburg states she has no plans of leaving her job, if her energy level remains high. But she is concerned about other aging justices and what it could mean to the bench, depending on the next presidential election. Again, that's fine. It's no secret justices have their political leanings. Being so blatant as to specifically point the finger at one candidate, however, crosses the line for somebody in her position.
Her bad judgement may be an indication it's time for Ginsburg to pack it in, otherwise, if the new game is for justices to start publicly campaigning for or against a particular candidate, then maybe it's time the people start electing U.S. Supreme Court Justices.
