text: Sports Live Survey says ... McClung, Reynolds best of SW Virginia Kevin Mays • Mar 29, 2020 at 3:30 PM firstname.lastname@example.com Mac McClung and Logan Reynolds are the best high school basketball players ever to play the game in Southwest Virginia. So say the results of our completely informal, unscientific poll conducted via Facebook and Twitter. Nearly 300 responses were posted and recorded over four-day period, and McClung edged former high-flying Castlewood and East Tennessee State great Calvin Talford for the No. 1 boys spot. "IT'S HUMBLING" "That's a big honor. It's humbling," McClung said when informed of the survey results. McClung led Gate City to the VHSL Class 2 championship in 2018 and finished his high school career as the leading scorer in VHSL history with 2,801 points. The Georgetown sophomore averaged 13.1 points per game his freshman season, during which he scored a career-high 38 points against Little Rock. After being selected to the Big East's all-freshman team, McClung emerged as a team leader for the Hoyas during his sophomore year, averaging 15.7 points before being sidelined with an injury. McClung said he still has a strong connection with Gate City and its community. But he's also connected to all of Southwest Virginia and the Kingsport area because people from throughout the region have supported him. "A lot of people have come to watch me play (at Georgetown) and they come up to me and tell me where they're from. I sort of carry Southwest Virginia on my back when I play and it's a great feeling to have that kind of support," McClung said. WHAT A TEAM The next four top vote-getters plus McClung would make a formidable group had they been given the chance to wear the same colors on the court. Talford is a member of the ETSU, VHSL and Castlewood halls of fame. The four-sport star at Castlewood was all-state in basketball all four years. His career included a 59-point game against Chilhowie in which he outscored the entire Warriors team. Also among the top five vote-getters was Council's Brad Nuckles, the only Cobras player ever to score over 2,000 points. Nuckles led Council to the 2001 state championship. Completing the top five were Ervinton great Trazel Silvers and Twin Springs legend Stacy Ervin, the third-leading scorer in VHSL history with 2,687 career points. Several other greats received voter recognition. Others garnering at least 10% of the votes were: Duffy Gilmore, Ervinton; Barry Hamler, Powell Valley; Steve Marsee, Pennington Gap; Zac Ervin, Gate City; Bradley Dean, Gate City; Doug Campbell, J.I. Burton; Zack Moore, Pound; Josh Shoemaker, Gate City; Luke Lawson, Eastside; Danis Simmons, J.J. Kelly; Andrew Adkins, Coeburn; Winston Terry, Jonesville; Glenn Roberts, Christopher Gist (Pound); Tanner Robinette, Honaker; and David Mitchell, Coeburn. REYNOLDS RULES Reynolds, the top female vote-getter, starred at Wise Central and James Madison. She led the Lady Warriors to the first of their five VHSL championships in 2014. The VHSL player of the year that season, Reynolds went onto a stellar college career. She ranks fifth in JMU history in steals (198) and 10th in assists (369). THE RINGS TEAM The other four top girls selections also boast state championship rings. Roshana Jackson led Appalachia — which had only eight players on the squad — to the 2000 state championship. Jackson went on to become a third-team junior-college All-American. Twins Sarah and Rachel Helton were part of a dynamic force that led J.J. Kelly to a 30-0 season and the 2002 state championship. The NCAA Division I prospects stayed close to home for college and in 2006 led Virginia-Wise to its only trip to the NAIA tournament. Sarah Helton is a member of the UVA Wise Hall of Fame and still holds the school record for most career points with 2,316. Ra'shelle Miller Stanley guided J.I. Burton to its only state championship in 2011. Other players receiving at least 10% of the votes were: Kayla Mullins, Clintwood and Ridgeview; Shannon Casteel, Castlewood; Julie Adkins, J.J. Kelly, Peyton Carter, Abingdon; Katie Jo Lester Dockery, Twin Valley; Dee Cvetnich, Wise Central; Brooklyn Porter, Wise Central; Misty Davis Miller, Honaker; Chelsea Cluesman, Lee High; Carrie Myers, Lee High; Christy Gray, Coeburn; Jamie Cluesman, Lee High; Tracy Lyle, Clintwood; and Hannah Wyrick, Eastside.

Secret behind Jiah Khan's death has been long awaited.The actress was found hanging from her ceiling fan in her Mumbai's residence in 2013. While CBI and Mumbai Police ruled it out as suicide. The late actress's mother, Rabia Khan, claimed her daughter was brutally murdered. Sooraj Pancholi, Jiah's boyfriend, was the reason behind her suicide, and Rabia demanded that he should be tried for murder.
On Monday the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) informed the Bombay High Court that
The CBI has no reason to protect the accused (actor Sooraj Pancholi) in the case, Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh told a division bench of Justice Naresh Patil and Justice Prakash Naik.
A division bench headed by Justice Naresh Patil asked Rabia to prepare the list of abnormalities and submit on August 23. Rabia's lawyer Dhairyasheel Patil pointed out anomalies stating the analysis had not taken into account the BBM (mobile) messages exchanged between Jiah and Sooraj. He claimed that the postmortem report had mentioned that Jiah's neck bore an injury mark which indicated she might have been strangulated or assaulted but this too had been considered by the investigating authorities.
Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh, however, claimed that CBI had referred on the injury mark an expert from All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) who had lined out murder while asserting that it was a case of suicide.
Singh also stated that the investigations done by CBI was in the right direction and the allegations put by Rabia were baseless.

Literature is so powerful. Whether it be quotes, poems or novels, some authors are so talented that the words they write down and share with us, stay in our minds and make us want to read the same story all over again. I am a lover of books and I always have been. I love the way you can immerse yourself deeply into a story line and forget about everything for the moments that you're reading. I have quite a few books that are my absolute favourites which I have read over and over and I could continue reading numerous times because I love way they have been written, by the most talented authors.
When thinking of my favourite books and characters, I began to wonder about a few different things. It's so easy to fall in love with a fictional character, it can happen after reading a book, or watching a film. After spending hours watching your favourite series, you become obsessed with the characters and the story line. When it's over, you feel like your life is! It can be the same with books. You can enjoy a book so much that you start to believe the characters are real, or wish they were real. I started to think to myself, does being a book lover make it harder to form relationships in real life?
Take Fifty Shades of Grey, for example. I'm currently halfway through the second book. After watching the films, I wanted to be able to compare the books vs films and see which I preferred. Along with the rest of the population of women, it's safe to say that I have fallen in love with the idea of Christian Grey. He is mysterious, sexy and always in control. But when you're finished with the books and have watched the films, you have to keep telling yourself he's not real. Everyone wants a Christian Grey, but he's a fictional character and it's very unlikely that I will find a Christian Grey walking down the street of my hometown.
When reflecting on myself and the way I view relationships, I am an old romantic. I believe in love, I believe in falling in love and I believe that we all have soulmates. Reading romantic fiction has made me believe in love even more intensely. I was thinking to myself, by reading I am constantly comparing real life people to those amazing characters that I have found in books. And so far, not many real world people have lived up to my standards.
Being a lover of literature, words, quotes and poems can sometimes distort the reality of our relationships. I know for myself, reading books has given me ideas of what I want in my life and the certain relationships I want to form in my life. This can be a great thing, because it has helped me in many ways. But, it's hard not to compare with the characters you have read about.
The answer to the question; does being a book lover make it harder to form relationships in real life? I think potentially, it could make you raise your expectations about what you want from people.
Which is not a bad thing.
Reading makes me so happy, and I will never stop reading. I use this as an escapism from whatever is going on, and it gives me so many new ideas about my own writing.
I once saw a quote that said; 'Never apologise for having high standards. The people that are meant to be in your life will rise up to meet them.'
This is so true. A fictional character you may have fallen in love with, or aspire to be like will never be a real person. But you can use the things you have read, quotes that have stuck in your head, to remind yourself of the way to form relationships and what you deserve. Although many books can seem 'far-fetched', you can still use the things you read and relate them to your own thoughts and experiences, which is something I do often.
One of my favourite ever books of poetry, is 'Love and Misadventure' written by Lang Leav. If you are a romanticist like me, who is full of love and loves reading about love, then you need this book.
It was hard to
choose because the book is absolutely fantastic. But, here is one my favourite poems from the book;
choose because the book is absolutely fantastic. But, here is one my favourite poems from the book;
All or Nothing
If you love me for what you see, only your eyes would be in love with me.
If you love me for what you've heard, then you would love me for my words.
If you love my heart and mind, then you would love me, for all that I'm.
But if you don't love my every flaw, then you musn't love me – not at all.
– Lang Leav
I hope you continue to read and fall in love with many more characters.

by Spencer Dale and Andrew Haldane in the Bank's Economics Division
The monetary transmission mechanism describes the channels through which changes in monetary policy affect the policy target, price inflation. So understanding the transmission mechanism is central to the successful conduct of monetary policy. This article focuses on one aspect of the monetary transmission process: the role of banks.
The article considers the special role played by banks in overcoming problems of imperfect information between borrowers and lenders. This 'specialness' has implications for the conduct of monetary policy and for the measurem.ent of monetary conditions.
We also evaluate the empirical significance of bank behaviour in transmitting monetary impulses, and in doing so explore some stylised features of the monetary transmission mechanism in the United Kingdom. The article concludes that the behaviour of banks significantly affects the impact of monetary policy. And that banks' behaviour - and thus the implied transmission mechanism - differs markedly between the personal and company sectors.

As the White House faces backlash over its decision to reverse Obama-era guidelines protecting transgender students' rights, over on the other side of the world, the tide may be turning the other way. This week, India's Health Ministry issued a sex education guide addressing same-sex relationships, contraceptives, and gender roles in a manner that some are cautiously taking as a sign of progress from the government, as advocates continue to fight to legalize homosexuality in India.
Released Monday, the resource material acknowledges attraction between people of the same sex, and teaches the importance of respect and consent. According to The Indian Express, part of the material translated from Hindi reads:
Yes, adolescents frequently fall in love. They can feel attraction for a friend or any individual of the same or opposite sex. It is normal to have special feelings for someone. It is important for adolescents to understand that such relationships are based on mutual consent, trust, transparency and respect. It is alright to talk about such feelings to the person for whom you have them but always in a respectful manner… Boys should understand that when a girl says 'no' it means no.
It also makes recommendations about reproductive health that tackle sexual activity in a way that observers might say are more mature and rational than how some developed countries have done so. The resource material gives information about STDs and "exhaustive information" on contraceptive options for both genders, The Express reported. The guide also addresses abortion and masturbation.
In a country where stereotypical gender norms are firmly rooted in the culture, and where women have been vocal about the widespread sexual harassment they face, government-issued declarations like these hold significant weight and could shift the way Indians view gender and sexuality.
The resource kit was created in partnership with the United Nations Population Fund and will be used to train peer educators to teach adolescents about sex and gender.
Importantly, the guide also takes traditional gender roles to task. The Indian Express quoted another excerpt:
A boy can cry to give vent to his feelings. He can also be soft-spoken or shy. Being rude and insensitive is not a sign of masculinity. It is alright for boys to like things like cooking and designing that are normally associated with girls; adopting the role of the other gender does not mean that he is not male. The same applies for girls who talk too much or like to dress like boys or play games like boys. It is wrong to label such people as 'sissy' or 'tomboy'.
LGBT advocates scored a huge victory when the Supreme Court decriminalized same-sex sexual activity. The Health Ministry's latest move, one year on, could signal yet another step towards the right direction.

The last 2 seasons I have burned my wild card early, after the first international break. While I did see an immediate return last year, the end result was devastating, recording red arrows the next 15 of 20 game weeks. By GW27, when the bleed stopped and I turned my season around, it was too late. I was unable to recover from a 1.5m overall ranking and salvage an acceptable season. However, it was a learning experience and I would like to believe the perseverance paid off and has made me a better manager moving forward.
This season I have made it a week further than I have the last 2 years as I now contemplate activating the first of two wildcards. Before GW1, the plan was to hold the transfer until after the second international break. I believe fantasy managers must remain flexible to all conditions and factors as we plan our strategies. For me, I currently have a plan in place through GW11. I don't expect to hold true to the plan, but it gives me an idea as to what I would like to do.
On the drive into work today I caught the tail end of the FFScoutCast Ep 232, which I had started yesterday. As expected, the banter was top shelf with Mark continuing to get a rubbing from Granville, using his wild card on some questionable players. Take a listen if you haven't. What caught my interest was some comments from AZ regarding, considering going 5 defenders instead of spending on budget midfielders who aren't producing. Names he brought up; Alonso, Kolasinac, Davies and Mendy.
This comment has me reconsidering moving the wild card up and playing it this week to bring in more wing back options in to further my attack. While So'ton still have strong fixtures, their fantasy assets are a mess. I've been lucky in 2 weeks to get the triple CS from Bertrand, Cedric and Yoshida. While I haven't been disappointed with Valencia (3 CS), his attacking returns haven't really materialized to date. Last week Jones was brought in for the injured Kompany, but his tenure may be short lived.
So just what I am considering? It seems all the rage is being able to go big up front with 3 premium priced forwards. This is how it feels, as fantasy managers attempt to get a combination of Kane, Lukaku, Aguero, Jesus, Morata, Lacazette, Morata and Firmino up front, while remaining strong in the midfield, but knowing you will run budget midfielders who need to start, as well as budget defenders, potentially in a rotational capacity.
Starting the season with Kane, Jesus and Firmino, I feel confident these forwards will return on a regular basis. These three forward account for £31.3m. Based on my starting two midfielders, many will say I lack a potent attack with Eriksen and Mkhitaryan starting in my 5-2-3. However both are healthy and both have started the season very well. The other three midfielders (Carroll, Stephens, Chalobah) are starters, but I don't plan on using them if injury should occur.
The activation of the wild card will be tailored to my defensive needs, as this is where I have allocated nearly £29.0m! While the So'ton treble has been rewarding and their fixtures appear worthwhile, it's time to move away and provide more attacking opportunities.
Current defensive set up feature So'ton and Man United, but So'ton has the better fixtures moving forward, as they play each other at Old Trafford in GW6. The addition of Wesley Hoedt and resigning of Virgil Van Dijk adds a question mark on the playing time of Yoshida, while Bertrand and Cedric should continue to be nailed on as starters. Yet, the Saints offensive threat has been terrible through 4 weeks. Conversely, United have scored 12 goals, while conceding 2 goals, but Valencia has failed to see attacking returns. With their fixtures getting a bit challenging, it's time to look elsewhere.
If I do activate my wild card ahead of GW5, it will be focus around upgrading the defenders to wing backs. Alonso and Kolasinac were in my pre-season plans, but both were left out of the 15-man squad for GW1. Davies has been the hottest commodity defensively since Alonso's brace in GW2 but priced much more favorably at £5.7m. Kolasinac would be brought in for his attacking prowess and possibly a few clean sheets if they can get their starting XI squared away. The final 2 spots could be a number of offensive players; Maguire, Jones, Cresswell, Dawson, McAuley, Cedric, Daniels. My plans will include Cresswell, as fixtures turn for West Ham, as I retain Jones for at least 2 more weeks before I look to move him for someone like Maguire.
So my starting XI if I wild card by Thursday would look like this:
Thoughts on this newly revised 5-2-3 formation? I feel it takes advantage of the strong forwards, as well as strong defenders, while being able to fit in a few premium options in the midfield. While I can't own all those high priced players, this feels right.

The Secret Vaults of Kas the Betrayer (A.E. Jackson) is a CYOA fantasy cave-crawl made in Twine.
As you'd expect from the title, we're talking full-on high fantasy here: constructed geography and history, a backpack full of dungeon-delving gear, a powerful artifact with an oddly generic-sounding name. This is not a genre that excites me per se. If you're doing genre fantasy, I want to know what is different and interesting about this one. Secret Vaults gives every indication of being written by someone for whom basic genre-fantasy elements are exciting in their own right. Which I can understand; that was totally me in my early teens. But at this point, I've been exposed to so damn much of the stuff that I can't get excited about it unless there's something special going on.
The game shows strong signs of wanting to be something like a traditional parser-IF cave crawl or an RPG gamebook; there is a persistent environment that you need to poke around for clues to puzzles. The implementation is weak: for instance, repeating a certain passage describes you finding and taking the same item over and over. The writing is not much better:
You put the full extent of your strength into pulling on the leather strap in an attempt to open the wooden door. With ease, the door slides down and embeds itself into the stone floor.
Somewhere in the dark hallways beyond a slamming sound is heard which echos throughout the vaults.
There are some spelling and punctuation errors, fine, but not so many as to ruin things; the real problem is that things are phrased awkwardly. And there's a sort of attention to the mechanical details of objects which might seem at home in the more traditional kind of parser IF, but feels really odd in Twine.
The first thing you have to deal with is a combination switch puzzle. There is nothing very interesting about it – either you figure out that the clue applies to this puzzle, or you don't. More to the point, the puzzle didn't actually work: I got a success message after solving it, but then nothing changed and I just returned to the room. Other people have mentioned getting a little further than this, so I assume that something broke in an update. Shit happens, I know. But at a minimum, your game needs to be playable.

I had a lot of fun during the live show, and I can say the same for everyone else that showed up! I hope things worked out well for Soulbro and Chris too!
Plus it helps save Soulbro a LOT of time by not editing the podcast as much as well as streamline everything.
Hopefully once Neo gets back everything will be complete for the new format!

It presents what the Texas plants learned about implementing an energy management system and demonstrating energy performance improvements—the benefits, the barriers, and the lessons learned. The Superior Energy Performance is a national site-based energy efficiency certification program that was launched in 2011. The program is organized around ISO 50001. Superior Energy Performance was piloted from 2008 to 2010 in Texas by four plants: Cook Composites and Polymers, Houston plant; Freescale Semiconductor, Inc., Oak Hill plant; Owens Corning, Waxahachie plant; and Union Carbide (a subsidiary of Dow Chemical Company), Texas City plant. The plants provided substantial input into the design of the program, as did other end-users on the US Council for Energy-Efficient Manufacturing. The four plants saw verified energy performance improvements from 6.5% to over 15% over a two to three year period. Moderator Michael Gromacki Vice President of Operations / Chief Sustainability Officer Dixie Chemical Company, Inc. Presentations "The Future of Energy Management: ISO 50001 and Superior Energy Performance" Paul Scheihing, U.S. Department of Energy, Industrial Technologies Program Mr. Scheihing will present the status of Superior Energy Performance, a national energy-efficiency certification program that was piloted in Texas. He will also describe the forthcoming international standard for energy management, ISO 50001 and its relationship to the Superior Energy Performance certification program. "Implementation of Superior Energy Performance at a Semiconductor Fab" Mark Krawczyk, Freescale Semiconductors, Inc. Freescale integrated energy management into their existing environmental, health and safety management system based on ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001. The energy management system helped transform the emphasis from efficiency at the project level to focusing on improving key performance indicators (KPIs) developed to monitor the operation of major energy using plant systems. KPIs are used for continual improvement of energy efficiency in central utility plant and at point of use in manufacturing. "Implementation of Superior Energy Performance at a Small Batch Chemical Plant" Deb Magoon, Cook Composites and Polymers, Inc. Ms. Magoon leads Cook Composites and Polymers Co (CCP) Integrated Management Systems which includes health, safety, environmental, quality and now energy. She will provide her perspective on integration of the energy management system into existing systems, creating an effective balance of plant involvement and corporate support. CCP leveraged its experience in the Texas pilot project at the Houston plant to develop a corporate program on energy management. "Implementation of Superior Energy Performance at an Insulation Plant" Michele Mazza, Owens Corning, Building Materials Group Energy Leader This presentation shares first-hand experience of implementing a Management System for Energy and Superior Energy Performance by the Owens Corning Waxahachie, Texas plant. At the time that the plant volunteered for the Texas Pilot Program, the Owens Corning - Waxahachie plant was considered a large plant with a mature energy program - large, due to their actual size and energy consumption; and mature, due to the company/plant's structure and process for energy, which was already imbedded within the organization. The presentation discusses the resources required during implementation, identifies external and internal challenges faced during implementation, outlines the benefits a large, mature company should realize from implementing such a program, as well as the challenges the Owens Corning – Waxahachie plant faces going forward. Panel Discussion Mark Krawczyk, Freescale Semiconductor Deb Magoon, Cook Composites and Polymers Michele Mazza, Owens Corning Dave Hake, Dow Chemical Presenter(s): Michael Gromacki Mr. Michael Gromacki serves as President of Dixie Chemical. He has over 25 years of experience in the chemical industry. He started his career in engineering consulting practice and joined TOTAL S.A. subsidiary Cook Composites & Polymers (CCP) in 1997 where he served for twelve years in a progression of roles leading to Vice President. He joined Dixie Chemical in March of 2009 as Vice President of Operations and added the role of Chief Technology Officer in 2010.

Pro Tip: Toe-Nailing Made Easy
Toenail… backwards?
When toe-nailing (or toe-screwing in this case), you normally want the screw to emerge at the middle of the bottom of the board you're screwing in to. But driving in a screw at an angle and making it come through in the right spot sometimes seems like it can be half guesswork, half luck. There's a way to toe-screw that eliminates the luck factor; just do it backwards. Driving in from the underside of the board first allows you to control and accurately place the screw exactly where you want it to be. Once the hole has been created from the bottom side, just back it out and drive in from the top.
To see this tip in action, check out the video below. Also be sure to check out these additional fastener tips.

Providing Natural Alternatives for Pain Relief and Better Health
Paul M. Bizzaro, D.C. discovered the benefits of chiropractic treatments at the young age of 13 when he hurt his lower back slipping on ice.
"Even though I didn't fall, I braced myself for the fall and this unguarded movement caused an injury similar to whiplash," describes Dr. Bizzaro. "The pain was so severe I had to crawl into my house because I couldn't stand up. After a few chiropractic treatments, the pain subsided."
As a result of this positive chiropractic experience, Dr. Bizzaro became a practicing chiropractor 26 years ago, establishing his private practice in Yardley four years ago. "I have the advantage of being able to empathize with my patients, having been a patient myself," says Dr. Bizzaro. "This helps me relate well with the people I treat."
He uses a combination of chiropractic treatments, laser therapy, supplements and therapeutic massages to reduce all types of pain and improve his patients' overall health. You might associate chiropractic treatments with the unpleasant cracking sound heard during hard force spinal manipulations. However, you won't hear that noise when Dr. Bizzaro adjusts your spine because unlike so many chiropractors, he uses a soft force technique.
"By using this light touch with my hands, my clients are barely aware that I'm touching them," describes Dr. Bizzaro. "They just know they feel better when I'm done." Because he uses such a light touch, he has treated bone cancer patients, helping to alleviate their pain and improve their quality of life without any concern about causing a fracture. "There are no side effects to what I do, enabling me to treat people of all ages from infants to seniors," says Dr. Bizzaro.
In order to heal more patients, Dr. Bizzaro recently introduced a state-of-the-art, FDA (Federal Drug Administration) approved MLS laser to his practice. "Other chiropractors might have hand-held lasers, but I don't think any other chiropractor around has this fully robotic laser," says Dr. Bizzaro. "This is a class four laser, meaning it can penetrate deeper. The laser heals at the cellular level, while chiropractic treatments heal through the nervous system."
With this laser, Dr. Bizzaro can now treat patients with fractures and dislocations. Because the laser works at the cellular level, it decreases pain and inflammation, causing cells of tendons, ligaments and muscles to repair themselves faster, leading to a quicker recovery.
Plus, it's pain-free, has no side effects and provides long-term relief, and best case scenario, permanent relief!
Dr. Bizzaro uses this laser on lots of athletes with sports injuries, so they get back into the game faster.
This laser is also very effective in treating arthritic patients.
Still another way Dr. Bizzaro helps his patients' health is with the variety of supplements he offers on-site.
As a child, Dr. Bizzaro was often sick from food-related allergies, but the medicines prescribed to treat these allergies made him feel worse.
"I got sick and tired of being sick and tired," says Dr. Bizzaro, who turned to supplements to feel better. Once again, he can empathize with patients wanting to try something different like supplements to improve their health.
In addition, Dr. Bizzaro's office has two certified massage therapists available to give therapeutic massages, ideal for reducing pain and stress. "Everything I provide in this office has a cumulative effect on my patients, which ultimately helps them heal better," says Dr. Bizzaro.
Find out how Dr. Bizzaro can help improve your health by calling 215-493-6589 to set up a free consultation.
Dr. Bizzaro's practice is located at 81 S. Main Street in Yardley. For information, visit DrPaulBizzaro.com.

Currency converter in Calculator
I am using Ubuntu 10 and part of it is the Calculator - gcalctool 5.32.0 !
I want to know how is the conversion currency value calculated when using the Currency Conversion option of that Calculator / in Financial mode / ?
For example I want to convert EUR to GBP and I get : 10eu = £8.32 ?
How is the rate calculated and how is updated ?
/ If I go to the oanda website for example / oanda.com / I get £8.31 ? But on xe.com is again £8.32 ?
Well I want to know the mechanism behind calculating these rates, where from is the information downloaded , how is downloaded and how is updated ? The reason is that I want to use the calculator for business and want to know how accurate is or would be gcalctool 5.32.0 ?/

There are rounding errors in things like this so you will get minor discrepancies like that, the rate may also slightly change resulting in a different result. Depends how often the rate is sampled for the site.
You could submit this sort of thing as an idea on:
Well I still need to know how is the info updated and where from ?
What website we're talking about ?
Gcalctool uses currency conversion rates obtained from the European Central Bank (http://
I am not sure if this behavior is actually documented anywhere, but fortunately the source code itself well-documented. For example, in Maverick:
(Search for the comment, "A file needs to be redownloaded if it doesn't exist, or every 7 days.")
In the upstream sources, the implementation is a little different, but it achieves the same thing:
(Search for the comment "Update rates if necessary" and notice that 60 * 60 * 24 * 7 is the number of seconds in a week.)
Notice that in the upstream sources, it gets currency conversion information from the International Monetary Fund as well as the European Central Bank. However, that behavior is not (or not yet) in Ubuntu Maverick's version of gcalctool.

Many of us had this dream when we started learning to play jazz guitar. We saw ourselves on stage under bright lights whipping out this great improvised solo. Maybe our dreams went into even more details. We saw the other band members, the equipment (like jazz guitar amps) and the people who would listen to our music.
So like any newbie, we decided to trot off and do what it took to learn how to play. We enrolled in lessons and things started off with a bang, but as the weeks went on, our excitement started to subside. In fact the excitement that we initially had was vaguely remembered as situations came up that interrupted our lesson and practice time. Stop the madness! Realize your dream and get back on track with playing jazz guitar!
1) Remember why you enrolled in jazz guitar lessons in the first place.
If you want to spruce up your lesson time and your practice time, have something to look forward to like listening to your favorite tune and attempting to transcribe it. Many people approach their lessons and practice time without having any goals, and they wonder why they don't feel like they are learning anything. Cure that by finding a tune you like to play and then take steps to learn how to recreate it. This is a sure way to break the monotony of learning how to play the scales and arpeggios.
2) Be committed to having quality lesson and practice time.
Be committed to the time you have set aside to learn and improve your skills. When you're committed to the lesson, it becomes easy to eliminate the distractions because you're focused on learning something new. Have a set schedule for your lesson and practice times and stick with it. Regularly scheduled lessons will bring results and those results will fuel your excitement for becoming a jazz guitar player. You should also be determined to have a learning goal that you want to accomplish during this time.
3) Practice expands your music vocabulary.
As you practice what you've learned in the lesson, you'll definitely notice that you're learning something. Consider adding to your practice time or learning your favorite tune. Let's say you hear a tune on gypsy jazz guitar that you like and you listen to it over and over so that you have it memorized in your mind. During your practice time, you learn to work with this tune. You'll recreate it as you heard it and you'll learn to play it in different chords as well. This activity is actually expanding your musical vocabulary. It will help when you want to play an improv or even a solo act.
Get the most out of your jazz guitar lessons and practice time by listening to and playing tunes that you like. You'll find the inspiration and motivation to stay plugged in to your studies and you will see that your skills and guitar techniques will improve!
You probably know that gaining a complete mastery of guitar scales is essential if you want to improvise jazz solos fluidly. To discover an unusual but very effective way that you can do this, please visit www.guitarscalemastery.com/letter/

What Technology is used in the Andropenis® Penis Enlarger?>
The Established Medical Principle of Traction & Cytokinesis
Cytokinesis = technical name for the process of cell division
The principle of traction is nothing new. Indeed, throughout history, African, Asian, and Amazonian tribes have been known to apply the force of traction to enlarge body parts, and change the shape of their bodies. Many tribes famously apply prosthetics and weights to elongate parts of the body, including the neck, lips and earlobe.
In today's medical world, plastic surgeons also use this same principle of traction to regenerate tissue and apply skin grafts. It is commonly used for surgical procedures, such as limb lengthening. This is the same principle used by Andro Penis enlargement devices (BJUI). It is the same principle that Andro Penis enlarger uses.

Penile make-up
To completely comprehend limitations of little penis measurement and also the surgical improvement opportunities, we need to evaluate the appropriate basic penile makeup. The penis is included 3 huge cyndrical tubes– 2 corpora cavernosa dorsally, which have the erectile cells, and likewise the corpus spongiosum that makes up the urethra. The main parts of the penis are bordered by areolar tissue in addition to peripherally confined with skin. Each layer of the penis plays a considerable role in the feature in addition to furthermore features of the penis throughout sex along with revoking.
Skin plays an essential obligation in shielding the penile cells from injury throughout sexual intercourse and furthermore as a challenge from microbial infection. If infection or injury do occur, the skin can stop intracavernosal operating together with cause a consisted of abscess or hematoma development, respectively. The skin is highly connected to the glans as well as additionally just honestly attached to the shaft, permitting flexibility throughout sexual relations. Deep to the skin exists the shallow (dartos) and also furthermore deep (Dollars') fascia, which provide added architectural aid. At the base of the penis, the dartos fascia incorporates with smooth muscular tissue fibers along with creates a distinctive penoscrotal angle in between the scrotal wall surface area and also the skin. The deep fascia abide by the tunica albuginea.
The base of the penis is highly connected to the pubic rami by penile ligaments made up of connective tissue. The tendons occur from the outdoors oblique aponeurosis as well as also are dealt with to the symphysis pubis. The suspensory tendon develops from the linea alba and similarly supplies dorsal support along with stablizing of an erection by affixing midline to the penile origin. This ligament in addition aids cover the neurovascular bundle of the penis as well as protects it throughout repeated sexual injury. The ligament of Luschka or fungiform tendon consist of dartos fibers in addition to also enhances from the stomach Scarpa's fascia onto the penile shaft. The fungiform ligament affixes to the pubis in addition to also fans side to side in addition to also ventrally to the boundary the entire penile start, mimicing a sling for assistance.
Penis development/embryology
Throughout embryologic development, gender remains separated until about 7th week of maternity. From the 8th week forward, person along with female developing pathways deviate. In guys, mother's chorionic gonadotropins from the placenta promote growth along with furthermore growth of the testicular Leydig cells, which eventually develop their own testosterone for even more growth. The development of the exterior genitalia in males relies on the conversion of testosterone to the energetic part dihydrotestosterone. Testosterone is changed to DHT in your location by 5 α-reductase as well as additionally afterwards directly acts on androgen receptors to begin cell signaling paths.
The genital tubercle climbs the size of to establish both the shaft along with glans of the penis. The urogenital folds fuse along the midline to wind up being the penile urethra in addition to the glans invaginates to develop the glandular urethra. The labioscrotal folds fuse to create the scrotum. Complete penile difference requires to be total by the end of the initial trimester. Penile dimension in addition to measurement increase throughout growth well balanced to various other fetal growth. The typical penile size rises by a mean of about 2 centimeters in between 14 weeks along with term. Penile elongation in utero is overall by androgens developed by the coming kid. After the extremely initial trimester, the anticipated young person depends on his actually own hypothalamic-pituitary axis for gonadotropin production. Any type of sort of concern causing hypogonadism in utero can cause an underdeveloped penis, together with subsequently hereditary or 'real' micropenis.
After normal improvement, there is an LH surge at birth which promotes an increase in testosterone manufacturing along with penile development. This boost simply lasts referring to 12 h along with at some point hormone degrees decrease instead reduced. Progressively, gonadotropin as well as furthermore androgen levels begin to boost as well as height once again. This boost in degrees lasts for about 6 months as well as likewise allows for continued penile growth. Duplicating penile development happens throughout advancement, without the need for surges, yet rather as an outcome of common development. At the age of adolescence, the HPG axis gets activated in addition to boosts testicular testosterone production, which consequently causes better penile development right into their adult years.
Typical penile length
Accurate dimension of penile dimension is vital for both scientific in addition to academic functions. Because of this, a routine technique for measurement has been specified to keep uniformity. As opposed to determining a flaccid penis, which supplies restricted expert well worth, prolonged penile measurement (SPL) measurement is considered finest approach for adult males as it most completely recreates routine upright penile dimension. SPL is the optimum dimension of the penis while expanded, examined from the base of the penis, under the pubic symphysis to the principle of the glans as well as likewise is thought to approximate upright penile length within 10%. For exact scientific evaluation, SPL requires to be figured out by a physician. Research research study research study studies have actually revealed that males that are pleased with their penile size overestimate their measurement, whereas individuals who are discontented consistently take likewise lightly.
Authentic micropenis is defined as a generally established penis that has an SPL that goes down listed here 2 common variances of normal for a patient's age along with race. Wiygul described the mean SPL in youngsters along with the evaluation measurement for micropenis at each age. Common worths for preterm babies birthed in between the 24th in addition to in addition 36th week of maternal can be calculated utilizing the formula: (0.16 × weeks of maternity)– 2.27.
As mentioned, micropenis establishes as a result of a key or area hormone discrepancy throughout fetal technology. Actual micropenis is a hereditary irregularity together with is numerous from obtained penile dimension troubles such as hidden penis or entraped penis. Based upon the etiology of the hormonal condition, micropenis can be divided right into 3 broad groups: hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, hypergonadotropic hypogonadism, along with likewise idiopathic. Different different other, a lot less normal origin of micropenis have actually truly been recorded. Issues of sex-related distinction can provide with micropenis, although hypospadias is a whole lot a great deal much more usual. The conjunction of micropenis along with furthermore hypospadias is called "microphallus".
Penile dysmorphophobia
A great deal of individuals seeking penile prolongation therapy have a regular penile measurement, which is functionally appropriate for sex along with micturition. Person experiencing little penis, in spite of adequate dimension, normally deal with either penile dysmorphophobia problem (PDD) or tiny penis anxiety (HEALTH FACILITY). In both of these problems, people on a regular basis take too lightly the measurement of their very own penis as well as overstate the mean measurement for other people. PDD exists within the body dysmorphic problem (BDD) range, which is defined in the Evaluation and also Analytical handbook of Mental disorder, 5th variation as a 'somatoform condition provided by attraction with a fictional or irrelevant defect in the physical look that causes disability in numerous locations of running'. Males are so busied with their penis measurement as well as dimension, they might develop depressive episodes connected with social, work, together with sex-related disorder. There is a high event of psychogenic erectile dysfunction and likewise lack of sex-related gratification in men with BDD, no matter their common libido.
On the other hand, DAY SPA is a tension as well as stress and anxiety condition vital to the genital body organs being observed, directly or indirectly while dressed, as a result of problem that the sagging penis measurement and/or girth is a lot less than the expected normal for an adult male. Person stress and also stress and anxiety continues regardless of evidence from an expert assessment to negate their issue. HEALING FACILITY might be an uncontrollable rumination or an aspect of psychosis which creates significant psychological distress as well as also activities problems. Numerous ranges and additionally nomograms have really been generated by scientists to convenience patients that their size is routine. Unfortunately, as an outcome of the nature of their anxiousness, end results of these study research studies are simply minimally beneficial to this client people.
