Businesses from around the world share the same menial, time-consuming responsibilities and one of these is recruiting the right talent. With so many candidates vying for a position, recruiters need to interview hundreds to thousands of candidates to identify the most suitable staff.
And here comes the recruitment chatbot. Ready to transform the HR and candidate experience, chatbots are a form of artificial intelligence (AI) that are now increasingly being used to make the hiring process easier.
What is a Chatbot?
A chatbot is a piece of software or computer program that is used by companies and businesses to communicate with people and respond to their questions based on a set of predetermined rules and algorithms. Chatbots aren't new. However, organizations are now taking advantage of them to improve their workflows while bringing the best results in a short span of time.
What is an HR or Recruiting Chatbot?
In the HR context, chatbots can identify potential candidates based on the data that these candidates provide. Moreover, HR teams that are looking to take their employee engagement to greater heights benefit from a chatbot's ability to analyze their employees' current satisfaction levels. HR chatbots can even be used for career coaching and talent development.
How Chatbots Streamline the Recruitment Process and Bring Better Results
During the recruitment or interview process, a chatbot works by analyzing an applicant's sentences and identifying common patterns to come up with a decision or response. How a chatbot operates is somewhat similar to the way recruiters narrow down prospective employees before they get closer to the final stage of hiring.
Just imagine for a moment: A chatbot reaches out to a recruiter and provides a list of 300 applicants that it has recently interviewed. The recruiter can review these applicants. However, the chatbot also offers a specific list of 10 very good candidates that are worth looking into.
These automated candidate-matching capabilities of chatbots can take the burden of scoring and ranking applicants off a recruiter's shoulders. Now, recruiters can benefit from having more quality time to converse with outstanding candidates that have been pre-selected by chatbots.
The fact that chatbots operate 24/7 and are designed to talk to multiple applicants at once with high accuracy allows companies to enjoy shorter recruitment cycles. This advantage of speed and precision helps businesses avoid wasting time and money on unqualified talent.
Recruiting Chatbots Improve the Candidate Experience
A lot of candidates have poor experiences when submitting their applications and resumes online. More often than not, they don't get notified about whether a company they have applied for has received their documents. This uncertainty coupled with the agony of waiting for feedback creates a negative impression on a company's credibility.
Through the integration of recruiting artificial intelligence, several candidates can be accommodated immediately and notified with the results of their interview once it's done. This lowers their anxiety and helps them move on to finding opportunities that are better suited for them. Companies that create HR bots are seeking for new ways to improve their functionalities to satisfy the needs of users worldwide.
Job Pal recognizes the need for companies to start engaging candidates the moment they apply for a job role. With that, they have built AI-powered chatbots to automate the communication between employers and candidates thus speeding up the hiring process.
Luc Dudler, CEO of Job Pal, talks about their plans for the future: "2017 is for as all around bringing our core intelligence to the next level and during this phase we're working very closely with our customers. In 2018 we'll ship the first version of a recruiting assistant that customers can completely customize themselves and enable companies to automate even more steps of their hiring process."
Do HR Chatbots in Recruiting Pretend to Be Human?
The answer is no. Although today's chatbots automate the hiring process and are designed to interact like humans, they aren't even close to being one. An article on CNET mentions that bot creators must never assume that they can become more than just software tools.
Transparency breeds trust. Businesses that invest in chatbots for recruiting need to disclose the fact that they are using these AI tools to provide programmed responses. Being upfront about their use prevents unmet expectations and mistrust from happening. In fact, when transparency is maintained, candidates are more than willing to discuss with chatbots about future job opportunities and inquire about potential employers.
AI Chatbots provide immense value when it comes to qualifying candidates but will never be able to replace real HR interaction. Chatbots are incapable of providing answers other than their programmed knowledge.
The Future of Recruiting with HR Chatbots
Businesses have a bright future with the use of AI. One can look at chatbots as automated virtual assistants that can effectively take care of repetitive HR tasks but not take the place of recruiters who are much capable of handling the human side of recruitment. This means that chatbots are meant to augment, and not to replace.

Experiencing SYMBOLS Including;
the Labyrinth, Animal Totems & Divine Symbols
Symbols are in our world as part of Divine Consciousness. As people become more attuned to the energy of their Higher Self, they become more aware of symbols as a form of communication. An additional offering we developed with separate trademarks, copyrights, and material from our normal curriculum is a class where certain blueprints and guides from the Universe are learned and experienced. This class is called the Tree Drawing Interpretation Class. It is so much more than Tree Drawing interpretation, however.
In that class the participants literally get in touch with the Higher Self through divinely experiencing one of the major symbols provided to assist mankind. Gifts of thought and a physical gift are literally received through this Divine Symbol in the class. One of our students was a law enforcement Sergeant. He is a very nice man with major talents in forensic and traditional hypnosis. He is approximately six feet four inches tall and did not really want to participate in experiencing this symbol because of the golfers on the golf course where we lived and taught this class in Kingwood, Texas. He felt they would look at us with derisive thoughts. He is a cooperative person and decided to go ahead and just experience being out in nature. Skeptical was his consciousness as he participated.
A Skeptic Becomes a Believer
Our teachings are supported by the Divine and we often have validation to spur us on. The greatest validation I could ever experience was what happened with this student. I knew he was a nice skeptic and an honest, nice, skeptic. He joined in the process of experiencing this symbol of connecting to your Higher Self by following instructions. The first instruction was to focus on a question which had literally been bothering each person participating. They were then told to follow the PATH and notice thoughts, experiences, etc. which happened during the process of participation.
After the participation, this was what he told the group. Also, I would like to add: he was never a big talker in class. For him to speak up showed it was a major experience for him. This student told that he thought of a question which had been bothering him. It was a worry about his teenage daughter and if he was providing the proper fatherly role model for her. He then followed the PATH and noticed the golfers at hole number 1 just left his consciousness. He felt at peace in nature. About midway along his PATH he heard in his mind these thoughts: "All is well", "She will be fine". He then started a process of wondering did he will it to come to his mind. He did notice a peace and contentment come over his being and continued his PATH.
We had gifts waiting at a tree. Each gift is wrapped and can't be seen. Some are more expensive than others and the wrapping may not show the value of the gift. When he picked his gift which had a message inside this is what he got: a figurine representing relationship and the written message was: "Your parental issues are resolved." Since he had never talked about his personal life at all other than about being a law enforcement agent, no one in the class knew about his parental issues. When the writing was put on the paper and the item bought, he certainly was not in mind. However, the Divine Symbol was was very much there for him.
This picture above shows the divine symbol used for powerful, healing meditation. As you may know it is the labyrinth and it is experienced in this highly evolved class. This particular picture was taken the weekend before the picture was taken of the fallen tree mentioned later in this write-up. Notice the circular colors above the head.
The picture above is of the law enforcement officer mentioned earlier. This was actually the second one of these classes he took. It was not his first experience of not really wanting to walk the labyrinth and getting the gift he got.
This 3rd labyrinth picture above shows the view of the golf course from the walking site.
Animals are Symbolic as well
Also, in this class, you get in touch with what Ted Andrews calls the symbol representation of either yourself or what is happening to you at the time of the class. This is your Power Animal. We have had some major occurrences with this. Everything we do in this class is done in a way that a person participating cannot say that it was arranged for them to get a particular message. A meditation is done where a person relaxes, goes to a level of connection with their Higher Self, and literally with their eyes closed draws an envelop. After the meditation, they open the envelope to a picture. They have chosen their Power Animal.
One man who went on to create a hypnosis practice with a yearly gross of approximately $400,000 working with large weight loss groups in his business had a badger as what he pulled. The attributes he exhibited in class were exactly that of a badger. Before the year was out, he smoothed those characteristics to where he could bring in large groups and help them lose weight.
A person who was exhausted and on the last leg of extreme burnout drew the Otter. Drawing this helped break denial about the tendencies towards denying self and needing fun to save them.
Another person who was considering working with professionals to assist them continue to help others had one symbol drawn in the envelope but told that he also had an image come to his mind. The symbol in his envelope was a Black Jaguar which represented getting personal vitality back after a major occurrence. (This was his experience after just having decided to get back into life after a major illness almost killed him).
The other symbol which came to his mind was one we had to look up. It was a jackass. Needless to say, I was worried about what we were going to find. Total amazement was what I felt when we found it. The look on his face validated that he had received an answer to what he had been pondering. The jackass represents the healer of healers. This validated that he needed to specialize on helping helping professionals stay in the ballgame of helping others.
We experienced the energy of the heron at the end of our property bordering the golf course. This lovely bird would walk back and forth like a beautiful marcher. When I looked it up it was a matriarch sentinel. Both of our mother's are now gone. Both of them would fit the description of being a sentinel over us, watching out with watchful eye. Also, this sentinel was persistent, beautiful, and consistently showed up during a stressful time when we could certainly use a sentinel. I remember it brought such peace to understand more about the energy of this bird.
The symbol of the Power Totem is certainly experienced in this class.
Divine Energy has Many Symbols
This particular class has all symbols of the Divine as part of the energy. It assists with the uplifting of energy, the connection with each participant's Higher Self, and the interpretation happens on a spiritual level for each participant.
Color experienced as light is one of the symbols and I was recently surprised to read what I had overlooked in my past readings. I was reading a new book by an author who has had many near-death experiences. This author sat on a panel in 1994 at the Congress of Enlightenment held in Houston, Texas, with Dr. Ed Martin. I have read all his books, but his last book stated that in one of his near death experiences he was told that colored light and flowers which change color would be part of healing stress. He was told that stress was over 90 per cent responsible for all illnesses.
I had to laugh when I read this statement at Christmas. One of the gifts received from my sister is an angel holding flowers which change color in a miraculous manner. This angel sat on a gazing ball in this class beside a huge tube of flowing water which was colored water which changed color as the light filtered through the flowing water. It just looked pretty when chosen, but it was divinely chosen.
Other symbols experienced are for initiating healing, personal empowerment, sending energy at distance, protection, and to assist with abundance.
In one of these classes, over 100 robins showed up to be inside the labyrinth. Robins are signs of a new beginning. The week after one of these classes, a tree fell in a thunder storm. It would have smashed the end of the house which represented abundance in feng shui energy. However, a power wire caught the tall tree and held it.
Dr. Martin took this picture because he felt the wire would break and insurance would need to see this story in picture form. The man who took the tree down after a complete week with the wire holding it agreed to do the work without the power being turned off. We had tried to get the power company to turn off the power to deal with this, but they had 57,000 people without power.
The man did a great job and we decided to have a huge tree in Birmingham cut by him. I took the camera out to take a picture in Birmingham on the same roll of film Dr. Martin had used to take a picture of the tree in Kingwood, Texas. I used a one-hour Walgreens for the development to send to the man in Texas in order to get an estimate.
We are sure it was a gift from the labyrinth energy.
We were shocked to have this print returned of the tree in Kingwood. It showed colored orbs and energy holding the tree on the power wire. The power wire held that tree for a week with it never breaking to smash our house.
All Symbols Communicate to the Subconscious Mind
As I worked on this part of the website yesterday, a person came in who said: "I don't understand how symbols can be important. Explain to me about symbols." As I stated earlier, symbols are Higher Self Spiritual energy. The left brain may not be able to adequately have a language to give credit to symbols. I struggled to appropriately use words which this obvious left-brainer could fathom.
To show the power of the Divine, I quote a study in today's Birmingham News (January 11th) This study was in the paper one day after my having to attempt to verbalize about symbols the previous day. The study states:
It has been proven the symbol representation of a person's initials can literally add years or take years from their life. Here some examples: ACE, WOW, JOY, VIP, CEO, WIN, WIT, GEM as positives. Some of the downers were SAD, MAD, BAD, KKK, DIE, ZIT, PIG, DUM, RAT, SOB, SIK, HOR, BUM, etc. with all of these expressing negative energy.
It showed the ones who have good symbols from their initials, by their studying death records, lived approximately 4.8 years longer than the ones with negatives initial symbology. This study was conducted in California and a large statistical group of death records were used.
We started going through symbols from initials. It brought to mind the story of a person named Ann. Her husband wanted to put the name Ann in with their girls names. She would not do it because it would be: HAG for both of them. As we thought of people we know we only came up with one who had a slightly negative one that happened through marriage, SAP. Hopefully, she chooses now not to use her middle given name in her initial symbol but has switched to her maiden last name as the middle initial.
The writers of the article stated that they believe the difference in length of life was from the stress of having to defend the negative initials from teasers, etc. I immediately thought of Dr. Emoto and the difference words had on water when reading this article.
The miraculous part of it for me was the the article came out one day after having to defend the value of symbols! Also, the miraculous thing was that they called the initials, symbols.

text: Hold on for dear life... StockWireNews Blasting Off Early, Breakout Idea (OPWEF) Is Surging Up Approximately 42% First Thing THis AM (US: OPWEF) - (Canada: OPW) November 8th Good Morning, Hold on for dear life... Here we go again. OPWEF has come out surging from today's opening bell and looks like it is in take no prisoners mode. Up approximately 42% at the moment, OPWEF nailed a high of $.4485 so far today. Could more be on the way? From a technical standpoint, this exploration profile is trading above multiple lines of potential support including its: 5-Day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) 13-Day EMA 20-Day Simple Moving Average (SMA) 50-Day SMA If potential support continues to build at those levels, it could help provide OPWEF with some serious fuel towards a return to previous highs. It was only this summer that it traded above the $.54 mark. Could we see a return there in the near term? Take a second now and read my initial report below and get OPWEF on your radar quickly. ----- We've now delivered 3 straight breakout champs and we're not looking to slow down. Before we get into it, a quick recap. For this past Thursday's session, I brought GSPT to your attention and all it did was catch fire at the opening bell. Running as much as 87.5% from Wednesday's close, GSPT exploded from an open of $.458 to a high of $.75 for an intraday rip of 63%. Oof. And to think, we were still riding high off of recent breakout superstar, XCPL. Brought to your attention last week, it made a 2 day march from $.038 high of $.365 completing a run of approximately 860% overall. But back to the main attraction. I've been tracking a new exploration idea closely and can't believe that it appears to be flying under Wall Street's radar at the moment. Why? Simple. It has 5 potential breakout catalysts that include: an uplisting to the OTCQB (this week), a relatively low float (just like all 3 of the breakout profiles above), engaging GoldSpot (expert geoscientists and data scientists to assist mining and exploration efforts), adding to company land position (100% ownership agreement to expand key territory), and the completion of a key prospecting program (major discovery news could be around the corner). For those reasons and more, while it's still a relatively unknown, I want you to get this profile on your radar for Monday, November 8th: *Opawica Explorations Inc. (OPWEF)* Opawica Explorations Inc. is a junior Canadian exploration company with a strong portfolio of precious and base metal properties within the Rouyn-Noranda region of the Abitibi Gold Belt in Québec and in Central Newfoundland and Labrador. The Company's management has a great track record in discovering and developing successful exploration projects. The Company's objective is to increase shareholder value through the development of exploration properties using cost effective exploration practices, acquiring further exploration properties, and seeking partnerships by either joint venture or sale with industry leaders. Advantageous Positioning World Class Mining Regions (1) Opawica Explorations Inc. has assembled a group of structurally controlled gold property targets representing the most economically significant types of gold mineralization in all of Canada. Its flagship properties are in the structurally controlled gold systems of the Abitibi greenstone belt in Quebec and Rogerson structural gold corridor in Newfoundland. It boasts the Arrowhead, Bazooka, and McWatters properties in the Rouyn-Noranda camp in Abitibi. These are potentially enormous assets because Abitibi is the world's largest mineral-rich greenstone geological belt and hosts many significant gold and base metal deposits. It's roughly 450×50 km through the Canadian Shield, from west of Timmins, Ontario, then eastward to Chibougamau, Québec. Gold was discovered in the area in the late 1800s, and >100 mines have produced over 170Mn oz of gold. Most of the major gold mines in the Abitibi are shear-hosted quartz-carbonate vein deposits associated with the major crustal-scale fault zones. Within Newfoundland, the company boasts strong positioning within the Rogerson structural corridor gold district. This district occurs within a northeast-trending structural corridor defined by crustal-scale faults extending from southwestern to north-central Newfoundland. The presence of conglomerate reflects the preservation of synorogenic upper crystal clastic sequences. These are commonly associated with orogenic gold vein systems. Here's what makes Newfoundland such a potentially blue sky opportunity for the company, however. It could be in the midst of a generational gold rush. Somehow, this mineral-rich region has been so unexplored and neglected for so long. Yet, the prestigious Fraser Institute, in its 2020 Investment Attractiveness Index, ranked Newfoundland and Labrador as a top 10 worldwide mining jurisdictions due to "mineral potential, transparent permitting, solid infrastructure, and a skilled workforce."(2) In 2020 alone, Newfoundland's Department of Industry, Energy, and Technology processed a record 389 mineral exploration applications, crushing figures from any of the previous five years.(2) The largest known gold resource along this corridor occurs at Marathon Gold Corp.'s Valentine Lake property. In Marathon's press release dated Apr 22, 2020, the Valentine Lake project had estimated proven and probable mineral reserves of 1.87Mn ounces (41.05Mn tons at 1.41 g/t Au) and total measured. It indicated mineral resources (including the mineral reserves) of 3.09Mn ounces (54.9Mn tons at 1.75 g/t Au). Additional inferred mineral resources are 960k ounces (16.77Mn tons at 1.78 g/t Au). Newfoundland, of course, could only be scratching the surface now that Opawica Explorations Inc. has come to town. Diving Deeper Into Its Projects Makes Opawica Explorations Inc.'s Potential Look Even More Striking If you do a deeper dive into Opawica Explorations's projects, the company's potential appears to be even more stunning. Let's first go through its Quebec properties of Arrowhead, Bazooka, and McWatters. These properties all occur alongside one of the most prolific auriferous structures globally, the Cadillac-Larder Lake Break/Fault. Arrowhead Entirely surrounding the Arrowhead property is major gold producer Agnico Eagle. This miner saw just over 875,000 ounces of gold produced in 2019 and recently conducted a significant drilling campaign to the west and north. The nearest mine to Arrowhead Property was the Mouska mine, located 8 km to the east. Previous drill holes on the property intercepted 40 gold-copper mineralized zones. This enhances the potential for quartz-carbonate auriferous veins associated with E-V trending faults on the shear zone. Fine Visible gold throughout the historical drilling and on surface. A geochemistry survey conducted in 2015 shows favorable geochemical signatures and rock alteration. New mineralized veins are thought to exist due to previous exploration work conducted – modern exploration techniques are needed to prove their economic potential. Bazooka The Bazooka Property lies contiguous to the southwestern border of Yamana Gold's Wasamac gold property. This property contains a gold resource of: Proven /Probable 1,767,000 oz, Measured/Indicated 2,588,000 oz, and Inferred 294,000 oz. This project has its best gold mineralization within 15m-60m wide (estimated true width). The alteration/deformation zone is generally confined to 2m-10m wide (estimated true width), strongly to intensely silicified carbonatized horizon with grey or brownish quartz veins (centimeter-scale to up to 2.0 m wide, estimated true width). 2003-05 drilling saw widespread gold mineralization from a few hundred ppb to up to 316.23 g/t Au over 1.0m in Hole #BA-03-02A. There could be higher-grade Au intersections occurring over narrow widths within a 50-100mwide main alteration/deformation zone (Main Zone) over an E-W strike length of 500m, to a vertical depth of up to 350m, and open to depth. Historically 634m of drifts were developed at –114m level followed by 957 meters of the underground. Average of back panel samples grading 0.31 oz over 15.0 feet, an average of back panel samples grading 0.55 oz over 3.5 feet by 69 feet long, an average of back panel samples grading 0.06 oz over 5.3 feet by 60 feet long, and channel samples grading 0.21 oz (over a drift section of 10 feet). These mineralized zones occur in a carbonated zone lying alongside the limbs around the nose of a drag fold. Furthermore, in total, 125 drill holes with 29,595 meters of drilling have occurred. The results of 2017 drilling and the historical holes confirm at the level of 275 m below surface, a wide gold zone extending from west to east, with widths of 40.5 m (BZ81-2) to 54.8 m (OP-17-01), 39.3 m (OP-17-02), 50.3 m (OP-17-05) and 73.1 m (BA-03-02A) over a total length of 200 m). McWatters Although the McWatters property has seen limited past exploration, visible gold has been reported. Several gold showings have been identified both within and in the surrounding area. All have been associated with quartz veins in deformation zones. Historical drill results are as follows: 02 g/t Au over 0.91 meters 79 g/t Au over 3 meters The property is contiguous with the east boundary of the Yourbeau Astoria property, where past mining has extended a shaft to 515 meters below the surface. Yourbeau has been evaluating the potential for open-pit mining. Its numerous ventures in Newfoundland may have even more potential, however. Opawica has several properties in a structurally complex regional setting – numerous anticlines and synclines cut by faults provide countless potential targets for gold deposits. ----- And right now, OPWEF has several potential catalysts going for it that could fuel a potential vertical surge in the near term. Here's just a few: No. 1 Potential OPWEF Breakout Catalyst - Uplisting To The OTCQB Opawica Explorations Upgrades to OTCQB in USA Vancouver, B.C. - TheNewswire - November 4th, 2021 - Opawica Explorations Inc. (TSXV:OPW) (FSE:A2PEAD) (OTC:OPWEF) (the "Company" or "Opawica is pleased to announce that after successfully completing the application process, the Company has received approval from the OTCQB Markets Group Inc. for its common shares to begin trading on the OTCQB Market ("OTCQB"). Commons shares will begin trading at market open on November 4th, 2021, under the symbol "OPWEF". The Company's common shares will remain listed on the TSXV in Canada under the ticker symbol "OPW". The OTC Markets Group Inc. is in New York, N.Y. and operates the world's largest electronic inter-dealer quotation system for broker dealers to trade over 10,000 securities.

ACME's quotation and trading on the OTCQB provides in-vest-ors the opportunity to benefit from streamlined market standards which enhance the availability of information to the general public, enabling greater transparency. Read the full article here. ----- No. 2 Potential OPWEF Breakout Catalyst - Another Low Float Profile According to the OTC Markets' website, OPWEF has a low float. The website reports this profile to have approximately 30.06Mn shares in its float. Why is that important? It's important on one crucial level. Volatility. With so few shares available for trading, other potential catalysts (like big news) could spark a vertical move in the short-term. ----- No. 3 Potential OPWEF Breakout Catalyst - The Company Engages GoldSpot Opawica Engages GoldSpot for 384-line kilometer Multi-Parameter Airborne Survey Vancouver, B.C. - TheNewswire - November 4th, 2021 - Opawica Explorations Inc. (TSXV:OPW) (FSE:A2PEAD) (OTC:OPWEF) (the "Company" or "Opawica") is pleased to announce it has engaged the services of GoldSpot Discovery Corp. ('GoldSpot') to undertake Multi-Parameter Airborne Survey System (M-PASS) over its Bazooka and McWatters properties in Rouyn Noranda camp of the Abitibi in Quebec. The 384-line kilometre M-Pass survey is designed to enhance drill targeting on the eastern part of the Bazooka property. The M-Pass system will also develop tighter understanding of the geology in the under-explored areas of the western half of the Bazooka Property. Blake Morgan, Chief Executive Officer of Opawica stated, "This is the first time that a Multi-Parameter Airborne Survey System has been used on the Bazooka and McWatters properties. With over 5kms of the Bazooka Property underexplored, we are looking to add new high-grade zones. This survey will add a new layer of information increasing our drill targeting efforts."

(TSXV:OPW) (FSE:A2PEAD) (OTC:OPWEF) (the "Company" or "Opawica") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a purchase agreement to acquire 100% ownership in the expansion of its Little d'Espoir lake Property (the "Property") located in the Exploits Subzone, Newfoundland. The added mineral claims consist of 162 claims encompassing a land area of approximately 40.5km, making the Little d'Espoir lake Property a commanding contiguous land package of 338 mineral claims comprising a total land area of 84.5km. The additional claims were acquired to cover surrounding transecting faults and associated secondary and tertiary structures situated within the siliciclastic sediments of the Davidsville Group. The secondary and tertiary structures in the area are important as they are underexplored and have been proven to host epizonal gold both to the north and south of the Property. Blake Morgan, chief executive officer of Opawica stated, "After having boots on the ground this season, the Opawica team needed to secure this land position. Little d'Espoir lake Property will be one property we focus on, as we continue to move towards drilling in Newfoundland."

Accidental Damage: This involves operating system (OS) failure, in which lost files are copied to another disk. This is performed by mounting the system disk or the removable media. Files are then transferred from the system drive to the backup disks via a file manager or an optical disc authoring software. This type of data loss risk can often be mitigated by regularly copying or storing valuable data on different partitions.
Disk Failure: This involves failure of hard disk, disk partition, or a file system. Data, in such cases, can be retrieved by repairing file system, master boot record, or through hard disk recovery methods such as hard drive firmware, hardware replacements on a damaged disk, and software based corrupted data recovery. In case of recovering data from hard disks failure, engineers focus on one-time recovery or retrieving data that can be easily read.
File Deleted from Storage System: In this case, content of the deleted or lost file is not immediately removed from the drive and hence can be recovered in multiple fragments.

One response is a new video of a Mahmoud Darwish poem as read by Roger Waters, with orchestration by Le Trio Joubran, a band of three Palestinian brothers, two of whom play oud. The piece is titled "Supremacy," though it is an excerpt of a Darwish poem titled "The 'Red Indians's' Penultimate Speech to the White Man."

1 cup dried lentils
1/4 cup Pompeian Robust Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 onion peeled and diced
1 pound butternut squash, peeled and cut into ½-inch cubes
3 garlic cloves minced
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 large bunch swiss chard, stems removed and thinly sliced
2 Tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 cup Pompeian Burgundy Cooking Wine
28 oz. whole peeled tomatoes
1 pound rigatoni
8 oz. mascarpone cheese
- In a medium pot, combine the lentils with enough water to cover them. Season the water with salt. Bring to a boil and then lower to a simmer, cooking until lentils are tender, about 20-25 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large pot, heat the Pompeian Robust Extra Virgin Olive Oil over medium heat. Stir in the onion, butternut squash cubes, garlic, thyme, oregano, and salt and black pepper, to taste. Sauté until veggies are tender and starting to caramelize, about 6-8 minutes.
- Add in the swiss chard and sauté until just wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
- Mix in the tomato paste and sauté for another 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly, until the tomato paste has dissolved. Add the Pompeian Burgundy Cooking Wine, scraping up any bits sticking to the bottom of the pot. Bring to a boil and then lower to a simmer, cooking for 3-4 minutes, until the liquid has reduced by half.
- Add the whole peeled tomatoes to the pot, crushing the whole tomatoes with your hands as you add them in. Bring to a boil and then lower to a simmer, cooking for 10-15 minutes, or until the tomatoes start to break down. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Stir in the cooked lentils.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta until tender, but still firm, stirring occasionally, about 8-10 minutes. Strain and toss with the sauce. Serve topped with dollops of mascarpone cheese.

If you're a frequent computer user, eyestrain, neck fatigue, back pain and Carpal Tunnel syndrome can greatly reduce your quality of life. The following helpful suggestions can make your workplace safer, more comfortable, and less stressful.
- Top of screen needs to be eye level (or lower, for bifocal wearers). Screen should be 15 to 32 inches away, with sharp, steady display.
- Display should be free from glare and reflection.
- Documents should be displayed close and level with the screen, and should be properly lit.
- Hold your wrists straight and horizontal using a padded wrist rest.
- Leave space for knee clearance under the desk.
- To ensure comfort, keep your feet flat on the floor or use a footrest.
- Your arms should be loose to the sides, with elbows at right angles.
- The lower back should be supported in the shape of its natural curve.
Avoid Eyestrain at the Computer
Adjust lighting level to reduce glare, set screen contrast, position screens at right angles to natural light source (windows) and parallel to overhead lighting. Rest your eyes by focusing on an object 20 feet away. Blink often. Be sure to advise your doctor that you work with a computer.
Proper Posture Makes a Big Difference
Good posture can be maintained with proper back support, head held erect, shoulders relaxed, wrists held straight and supported with wrist rest, and feet flat on the floor or on a footrest.
Sit Well, Reduce Stress
Having a chair that is adjustable four ways can reduce stress caused by sitting: height, back, seat and arms. Your chair should fit the lower back in a natural curve, have a seat with a rounded front edge, and swivels smoothly. Arm rests need to support the elbows.

Seniors who pay property taxes in Ontario can look forward to a tax break starting next year. The maximum amount of the tax break for 2009 is $250, and for subsequent years it is $500.
The tax reduction won't come off the city tax bill directly, though. This program is part of the Ontario Tax Credits. Seniors who qualify and submit form ON479 at income tax time will get a tax deduction or rebate on their income taxes.
In 2009, a senior couple with a combined income under $45,000 will get the whole $250, and the amount of deduction drops off to zero for combined incomes over $60,000. Single seniors in 2009 whose income is under $35,000 will get the whole $250, and the amount of deduction drops off to zero for incomes over $50,000.
It's hard to disagree with a policy like this when you imagine an elderly widow living in near poverty being forced from her home because she can't afford the property taxes. However, this does shift the tax burden slightly from seniors to younger people, and it's not difficult for seniors with substantial savings to keep their incomes low enough to qualify for this tax break.
As the proportion of seniors in the population increases, there will be increasing pressure on governments to shift more of the tax burden away from seniors onto young people. I'll probably be less concerned about this once I become a senior myself.

Good News for Ontario Senior Homeowners
3 comments:
So, what age is a senior?ReplyDelete
CanadianInvestor: Good question! In this case, you qualify as a senior for the 2009 tax break if you are at least 64 years old as of 2008 Dec. 31.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousNovember 3, 2008 at 12:07 AM
Yay, more money for seniors that have been working their whole lives, and less for those just starting out.ReplyDelete
Sounds like a great (election) idea to me!

Student's Application for Homestay Accommodation
Homestay Application Form (for STUDENTS)
Accommodation is an essential aspect of any course and the most comfortable and enjoyable way to experience a stay in England is with a Homestay arranged by the school. Alternatively, you may prefer to organise Private Accommodation in the city.
What is Homestay accommodation?
In a homestay you will live with local English speakers and experience an authentic home lifestyle. You will live as your hosts live, eat the same food and spend time at home together. Many students enjoy the homecooked food and extra feeling of security in a homestay.
Homestay hosts offer a warm welcome in their homes for a maximum of 4 students and provide a friendly environment for you to practice English in a relaxed, informal setting.
ISE Brighton accommodation staff organise homestay requests, working directly with our registered hosts.
Internet & Wi-Fi
All ISE homestays have internet and Wi-Fi connections which students may use for free.
Accommodation Prices (from 1 April)
Arrangement fee: A £50 - £75 non-refundable fee for arranging accommodation.
Monthly fees: homestay should be paid minimum monthly (4 weeks) or completely in advance.
Homestay families offering half-board provide bed, breakfast and evening meals everyday, and lunches at weekends.
Half-Board Premium (private or en-suite bathroom)
Half board provision homestay with a private bathroom
Bed & Breakfast
Maybe you prefer your breakfast provided by the host but not dinner. With this arrangement you can arrange your own dinner at home or eat out in the city, being independent but still having contact and conversation with the host. It's particularly suitable for anyone with a special diet.
Bed & Breakfast Premium (private or en-suite bathroom)
B&B provision homestay with a private bathroom
Self - Catering
A more independent option is self-catering. Some ISE Homestay hosts provide full use of kitchen where students can save food and cook their own meals.

Private Accommodation in Brighton (not organised by ISE)
Staying in Private Accommodation is when you stay in a hotel, rent a flat or arrange to rent a room by private agreement with a hotel, landlord or letting agency.
Longer term students may prefer to hire a flat for the duration of their stay. Long term lets of more than 6 months and short term holiday lets are available through various letting agents. If you would like information about Private Accommodation please telephone or email the accommodation officer to discuss options.
Typically flats must be let on a minimum of 6 month period, with many agencies charging the full six-month rental fee in advance. Students are responsible for Utility Bills (water, gas, electricity, phone / internet, Council Tax) for the duration of the rental period. As tenants, there is also a responsibility to keep the flat in good condition, and return it at the end of the period in the same condition that it was received.
Living in private accommodation will limit your contact with English speakers and all living responsibilities like cooking, shopping and cleaning will usually be yours.
Short term accommodation in Brighton can be found using international accommodation search sites such as Airbnb or Trip Advisor.
Hotels, hostels, Bed & Breakfasts or Guest Houses
Hotel & Guest houses are also available in the city, please use the Visit Brighton accommodation listings to find a hotel or Bed & Breakfast that suits you. Prices are available on request from the hotel website or by contacting them directly.
Could you work for ISE's Accommodation department?
We are always on the lookout for enthusiastic staff to join our administrative team, particularly during the summer season. If you think you have what it takes, please contact us.

Touching on the topic of why LTE will be successful during their press call this morning, Verizon tooted their own horn a bit by bringing up, curiously enough, the success of Android. To quote Verizon CTO Tony Melone:
Android really took off when Verizon got involved.
Strong words — and ones that have some Android devotees in quite the tizzy. But are they true?
Verizon wasn't the first to launch an Android handset. That was T-Mobile.
They're also not the one's with the most Android handsets; that, again, is T-Mobile, with 14 unique Android handsets compared to Verizon's 11.
They were, however, the first to really put insane amounts of effort and money behind marketing an Android device — or more accurately, a line of Android devices. Right off the bat with their first Android device, the Moto Droid, Verizon started branding all of their high-end Android devices with the "Droid" moniker.
Then they took that name and ran with it; commercial after abstract commercial, they dumped tons of resources and TV air time to their Droid line-up while firing off interest-destroying duds like this one for their other phones.
Then came the print ads.
Then, as anyone who has driven around a major city in the past few years could tell you, came the billboard ads.
There's a reason that just about every other person refers to any and all Android phones as "Droids" (much to every Android fanboy's dismay) — Verizon's dumped more effort into actively marketing Android than just about anyone else, and had more success in doing it. The only folks who even really come close are Motorola, with their full-page New York Times ads and Superbowl commercials; unfortunately, the former focused mostly on bashing the iPhone, while the latter mainly focused on making you think about Megan Fox in a bath tub.
Homebrew/hacker communities are great for the geek crowds (and everyone else, in the long run), and every carrier filling their lineup with Android handsets certainly hasn't hurt — but to convince those carriers to do so, and to really make those communities flourish, requires at least one party to have an overwhelming and resoundingly successful marketing campaign. That was Verizon.


text: Innovations NS wants to be the frontrunner of sustainable mobility with an attractive product. We encourage employees, sector partners and stakeholders such as suppliers to collaborate with us in developing new technologies, services and products that will improve the service we provide to passengers. The new Innovation Board is in charge of coordinating the innovations.Driving advice for driversDrivers get support with information about the speed the train should be going at, resulting in fewer unnecessary red signal approaches and delays. In 2018 the Rolling Time Advice system was further improved with, among other things, more accurate position determination and the addition of the train type. The roll-out is expected in 2019.SmartwatchIn 2018, conductors tested working with a smartwatch. Via a special app, the conductor gets a vibrating signal shortly before departure so that the departure process starts on time. The smartwatch counts down so that the train can depart at the exact time, down to the second. The app means that the conductor has the same departure time as the driver, allowing them to cooperate even more effectively on the train. The roll-out of the smartwatch is planned for 2019.Deploying trains based on public transport smartcard dataSince December 2018, we have been planning the use of trains in part based on data from public transport smartcards. The data gives us a picture of how we can deploy trains at the same cost in such a way that they offer our passengers an improved chance of getting a seat. The SLT-type Sprinter trains have been running this way since the summer.We also launched the Seat Searcher feature in the NS app. It indicates where in the train you can expect to still find empty seats. That expectation is based on public transport smartcard data and on the measuring points giving the weights on the railways. The Seat Searcher was tested on the Arnhem-Den Bosch route and is now also available on other routes. We are working on a national roll-out.Public transport guide for personalised journey adviceIn 2018 NS launched an app for a group of test users with personal, up-to-date and relevant journey information during the door-to-door journey. In this app users can place their planned journeys in a journey calendar. Before and during the journey they receive up-to-date information about the next journey step. For six stations on the 'A2 corridor' (between Amsterdam and Eindhoven), they can use a station plan with pedestrian routes.

9 Places to Buy Cheap Work Clothes
Professional clothes are a must for most people. At some point in your life, you are probably going to need to suck it up and put on some slacks and a blazer every day for work. This might be hard, especially if you have never had to wear professional clothes before. It means figuring out what you like and what you look good in all the while trying to save money on a new wardrobe.
The great thing about work clothes is that there is a big market for them, so a lot of stores carry affordable professional wear. Here is a list of a few places to help get you started on your hunt for professional clothing.
Goodwill should be your first stop if you are shopping on a budget. If you are committed to digging through the racks, you are sure to find some gems. At Goodwill, you could possibly get an entire work outfit for under $20.
It's an awesome store but because all of the stock is donated, you have to be ready to dig around to find something you like and in your size. Cut out a big chunk of time one day and dive into the racks of Goodwill for a super cheap way to get work clothes.
Forever 21 is a great store to get cheap clothes, professional or not. You could potentially get your entire work wardrobe at Forever 21 if you do some digging. They have a wide array of trendy blazers, professional blouses, and slacks — it just takes some searching!
They also have a great selection of dresses that range from casual to elegant. However, you get what you pay for. Don't expect your new pair of sleek, black boots you got for $12 to last you three years.
H&M is an awesome place to get your work clothes. It's inexpensive, and the quality of the clothes is a lot better than a lot of its competitors. The clothes at H&M tend to lean more towards professional style, so it's not hard at all to find a few full work getups. The men's section is also full of professional wear if dresses aren't your style. You can find dress pants, button-downs, and blazers all for an affordable price.
Target's clothes section continues to get better and better. Their clothes are surprisingly on trend and cover a wide array of styles and elegance. Both their Men's and Women's sections are full of affordable professional wear that is of good quality. Don't expect to leave Target with just a couple shirts — there is something about that store that compels you to buy everything you don't actually need.
Zara is a great place to get professional clothes that are sleek and stylish. They have blazers for days that are affordable and come in a variety of different cuts. They also offer up a wide selection of professional dresses and slacks. While a bit pricier than some of the other places on this list, Zara has a great variety of professional wear that is sure to last you a very long time.
Old Navy is an underrated gem when it comes to affordable shopping. They have everything and it's all extremely affordable. It's a great place to pick up nice blazers that are sure to give any outfit a flare of professionalism. From shoes to jewelry to shirts, Old Navy has everything you could need to compile your work wardrobe, and it won't break your bank!
Macy's has an awesome selection of affordable work clothes, especially for men. They have a huge selection of ties, suits, and dress shirts all for affordable prices. Their ties sit at around $15 each which is a huge money saver. They also run frequent sales including their monthly One Day Sales where you can get your work wear even cheaper.
Gap is a great place to find alternatives to more expensive brands. A lot of their clothes mimic JCrew which, for a lot of people, is way too expensive. Thanks to Gap, you can get JCrew style professional wear for much, much cheaper. The clothes at Gap are on the more casual side, so if you are looking for something more elegant, try Gap's sister store Banana Republic for affordable elegant wear.
Shopping for clothes online can be a little bit risky, but Amazon has a huge variety of clothes that you can wear to work. If you have Prime, shipping is super fast and returns are super easy. Before discounting online shopping, scroll through the pages of Amazon and just see if there's anything that catches your eye.
Online shopping is often cheaper than shopping in-store (depending on where you are shopping), so it's worth it to just take a look around.

An Iranian cancer researcher arriving in the United States to start work at a prominent Boston hospital was detained this week at Logan International Airport, the hospital said on July 11.
Boston Children's Hospital said that Mohsen Dehnavi was prevented from entering the country with his wife and three young children despite holding a J-1 visa for visiting scholars. They arrived at the airport on July 10.
U.S. officials said on July 11 that Dehnavi and his family had been put aboard a return flight to Iran.
The hospital said the reasons for the detention were unclear.
"Boston Children's hopes that this situation will be quickly resolved and Dr. Dehnavi and his family will be released and allowed to enter the U.S.," hospital spokesman Rob Graham said. "The hospital is committed to doing its utmost to support Dr. Dehnavi and his family."
U.S. Customs and Border Patrol spokeswoman Stephanie Malin said the Dehnavi family's detention was for "reasons unrelated" to President Donald Trump's executive order temporarily barring visitors from six predominantly Muslim countries, including Iran.
She said the stop was based on information discovered during the agency's review. She didn't elaborate, but she noted that visa applicants "bear the burden of proof" to meet all requirements and can be denied entry for a range of reasons, including health-related issues, criminality, or security concerns.
Susan Church, chair of the New England Chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, said her group objected: "The rules say if you have a valid visa you have to be let in."
The Supreme Court recently ruled the Trump administration could largely enforce its temporary ban on travelers from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen. But the court said the ban can't block people with a "credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States."
The Massachusetts chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union and the D.C.-based National Iranian American Council, which have both gotten involved in helping the Dehnavis, voiced concerns on July 11, suggesting their detention might be a violation of the Supreme Court order.
"The family is very worried," said Shayan Modarres, a lawyer for the council. "If it is a minor paperwork issue, then something needs to be told to the family so they can resolve it."
Boston Mayor Marty Walsh, a Democrat, told reporters he was waiting to hear more about the Dehnavis' circumstances, but also suggested the case was an example of concerns with the travel ban.
"Many people, doctors and nurses and people who are students working in the world-class institutions that we have are going to be boxed out or left out of the country," he said.

So I called my dermatologist last week (I hadnt seen him in 6 years!) and was told that the first available appointment was in January. 2013!
His receptionist gave me some numbers of other dermos that they recommend and I called around. The earliest appointment any of them could give me was April!
I took one.
In the mean time he actually called me and consulted over the phone, he recommended I keep my April appointment and put me on his waiting list.
The next day the doctor I had the April appointment with called and said that I could come the next day as they had a cancellation. I grabbed it!
The reason I wanted to see the dermo is explained in this post. Go take a look and come back here.
So it turns out that yes, I do have HS in my groin. But what I have on my face is a severe form of Perioral Dermatitis.
My lovely new dermo suggested I go on a low dose of Roaccutane to sort out my face first. The HS may or may not be effected by the Roaccutane but we will only be able to tell after the four month course. If it doesn't clear up the HS we may have to do a stronger dose for another four months.
I am so happy we may finally have a permanent solution to this. I am also very very aware of all the side effects to the Roaccutane and am willing to risk them. These skin issues have been around for over 20 years. TWENTY YEARS of dealing with this on and off and I have finally had enough.
So here is hoping to a permanent fix! Wish me luck!

James Franco Directing Josh Boone-Scripted 'The Pretenders'
Before Josh Boone's The Fault in Our Stars conquered the box office, one of the projects the busy writer-director wanted to make to was The Pretenders. Boone once described his script as "Carnal Knowledge meets Unbearable Lightness of Being or The Dreamers," which doesn't sound emotionally draining at all. In 2013, the director put together an impressive cast for the project, but due to scheduling, it may have fallen to the wayside. Now, The Pretenders is up and running with a new director, James Franco, and new actors.
Below, learn more about the James Franco The Pretenders project.
The Hollywood Reporter writes Franco and his production company, Rabbit Bandini Productions, are helping to make The Pretenders happen. The 1980s-set story follows two college friends who fall for the same girl. Jack Kilmer (Palo Alto), Shameik Moore (The Get Down), and Jane Levy (Don't Breathe) have signed on to play the three central roles. The Pretenders covers a decade in time, so the fine trio of actors will get to play the three friends/lovers through various stages of their lives. Taking on supporting roles are Brian Cox (25th Hour) and Juno Temple (Vinyl).
Over the years, The Pretenders has attracted some serious talent. At one point, Boone had Michael B. Jordan (Creed), Imogen Poots (Green Room), and the late Anton Yelchin (Green Room) attached to star. From the sound of it, Boone wrote the script with Poots in mind. The two may have met for Boone's directorial debut, Stuck in Love, but Poots, like Boone, fell off the project, which the director planned on making after The Fault in Our Stars.
Take it with a grain of salt, but it looks like The Pretenders was in development in a different for up until a month ago. A casting call, which went out for "all types in the 1970s and 1980s" listed Evan Peters (American Horror Story) and Keith Stanfield (Selma) as the stars. Boone isn't name-checked in the casting call, so maybe he departed from the director's chair earlier than last month.
Boone has been incredibly busy these days, with brewing adaptations of Stephen King's The Stand, the X-Men spinoff Young Mutants, and Interview with Vampire in the works. The word is Young Mutants is aiming to begin production early next year, so maybe that comic book movie played a role in Boone leaving his somewhat dark, Mike Nichols-inspired love story in Franco's hands.

The high water table at the site of the new Imagination Playground in New York City's Historic South Street Sea port district is a valid test for the connection integrity and watertightness of the precast concrete box culvert combined sewer system.
By Sue McCraven
The Big Apple isn't for everyone. Not many construction contractors are tough enough to compete in New York City (NYC). Some national and international firms will not work in NYC for a number of reasons, including multiple regulatory agencies; onerous permitting requirements; congested underground utilities; and last – but certainly not least – notorious traffic.
Contractors who succeed in NYC need to be pretty savvy, like Garden State Precast located in New Jersey, who fabricated, tested and supplied the precast concrete box culvert tunnel system. This precast tunnel carries the combined sewer and stormwater flow under lower Manhattan's Imagination Playground (see Figure 1), a new and innovative public space designed by architect David Rockwell of Rockwell Group to encourage child-directed, unstructured free play (see Sidebar A). The subsurface of the playground's historic seaport site complicated excavation work and precast culvert assembly with a nasty assemblage of garbage, high water and potential archeological artifacts.
Burling Slip playground project: no walk in the park
In the spring of 2009, the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation began construction of Imagination Playground for the high-profile historic South Street Seaport district of lower Manhattan. More than $5 million from the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation, $3 million for utilities from The New York City Department of Environmental Protection and an endowment from Rockwell Group provided the funding for design and site development at Burling Slip.
The playground, opened in July 2010, is part of NYC's South Street Seaport historic district and the former site of major maritime commerce. Historic importance aside, the complex underground conditions near the corner of John and South Streets had the makings for a contractor's nightmare (see Sidebar B at the bottom of this post).
Tight tolerance challenges precast QC team
"The hurdles we faced while producing the box culvert for Imagination Playground were a bit more challenging than other jobs we have done in the past," explains Pat O'Malley, project manager at Garden State Precast. "To meet the NYC Park Department's watertightness specifications for this high-water installation, we needed to keep the joint tolerances very tight."
Josh Tyler, Garden State's QC manager, made sure the spigot tolerances of the box culvert joints were maintained within ± 0.0625 in. (± 1.6 mm). Tyler's form set-up team performed rigorous pre-pour inspections to meet these exacting tolerances that were in compliance with the recommendations of the gasket supplier, Hamilton Kent. "Making a watertight structure is much more difficult when it is rectangular," says O'Malley, "as opposed to when the product is round."
"We needed to use specialized form equipment machined to a tolerance of 0.04 in. (1.0 mm)," continues O'Malley. Because of the narrow joint tolerance specified for the tunnel project, all product handling at the precast facility was monitored carefully. "We needed to make sure no damage occurred during manufacture or when we tipped the culvert sections out of the molds, and that included special care during product loading and shipping. Any imperfections to the culvert sections might have led to a joint leak."
Sidebar A – Imagination Playground: Not Your Father's Swing Set
After five years of research, development, focus groups and testing, Imagination Playground at Burling Slip opened in July 2010, conceived and designed pro-bono by architect David Rockwell in collaboration with the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation. Imagination Playground is part of a breakthrough playscape concept that encourages child-directed, unstructured free play; the kind of play that experts say is critical for a child's intellectual, social, physical and emotional development. With a focus on loose parts, Imagination Playround offers a changing array of elements that allows children to constantly reconfigure their environment and to design their own course of play.
Features of this site-specific park include: a ramp; sandpit; slide; cascading water channel; rope climbing structure; masts and pulleys; and a listening forest. Inspired by the commercial activity that took place at historic Burling Slip, loose parts such as burlap bags, buckets, shovels, brooms, carts and fabric, as well as custom-designed blue foam blocks of various shapes and sizes, are incorporated within the play activities. And reflecting the proximity to the East River, buckets, sandbags and wooden dams have been integrated into the water play. Seating and storytelling are accommodated in the tiered steps of the playground's amphitheater.

Hydrostatic testing of precast joints
At Garden State Precast's Farmingdale, N.J., facility, hydrostatic testing of the culvert joints was conducted to ensure that the precast assembly complied with the watertightness specifications for the proposed combined sewer at Burling Slip. Hydrostatic testing was performed by an independent agency. An internal hydrostatic pressure of 13.2 psi (91 kPa) was placed on the assembly for a duration of 10 minutes; 13.2 psi is equivalent to 30 ft (9 m) of pressure head. No leakage was found and the inspector determined that the culvert assembly complied with job specifications (Figure 2).
The precast concrete box culvert bulkhead assembly was also inspected for watertightness under joint deflection. Applying a specified deflection of 1.0 in. (25 mm), the sealed precast box culverts were subjected to a hydrostatic pressure head of 13.2 psi (91 kPa) for 10 minutes. No leakage was detected. Joint deflection testing for watertightness was performed on two separate occasions on different box culvert castings from Garden State's manufacturing facility.
Gasket sealing system is a lock
According to Hamilton Kent LLC, supplier of the gasket sealing system for the job, rubber gaskets have been an integral part of sealing underground infrastructures in North America for more than 60 years. "With the development of the pre-lubricated Tylox Super Seal (TSS) gasket 20 years ago," explains Alan Siebenthaler, Hamilton Kent marketing manager, "the ease of use and performance of gaskets took a big step forward. Fast, clean, simple installations have now become the norm for contractors in many regions throughout the U.S. and Canada."
The unique design of the TSS gasket, in combination with the radius corners and single-offset joint box culvert design, now offers the advantages of watertight connections and reduced installation time for the contractor (see Figure 3a and 3b). "This gasket has a thin layer of silicone lubricant on the inner surface of the rolling tube," says Scott Lander, Hamilton Kent national account manager–concrete products, "so no lubricant is necessary at the job site, saving time and labor." The gasket is applied on the spigot end of the precast box culvert at the plant, so field installation is as simple as lowering the box section into position, ensuring proper alignment, and then pushing or drawing the two culverts together.
Because the gasket is installed on the box culvert at the plant, the gasket is manufactured from synthetic rubber compounds engineered for enhanced ozone and UV resistance. This allows for storage in the precast yard for extended periods of time without material degradation. All TSS box culvert gaskets meet the material requirements of ASTM C 1677, ASTM C 443 and CSA A257, for either "Standard" or "Oil-Resistant" applications.
Precast proves watertight
"Construction of the sewer was excellently executed," says Joseph (Joe) Atanga, resident engineer for the NYC Parks & Recreation Department. "The level of cooperation and participation of all parties was important for this project, especially Garden State Precast, who produced the concrete culverts, and Hamilton Kent, who supplied the pre-lubed gaskets for the culverts."
"Mike Vanover of Garden State and Scott Lander of Hamilton Kent supervised the installation of the first few boxes," explains Atanga, "and provided the needed on-the-job training and expertise for Trocom Construction to successfully complete the installation of the rest of the boxes. This level of involvement ensured that the project, which was already lagging four months behind schedule, was fast-tracked with completion almost one month ahead of schedule."
The new sewer has been in use since March 2010, and the city conducted an internal CCTV (closed-circuit TV) inspection and video recording of the sewer two weeks after the sewer line was operational and found no leakage. "The gaskets provided the water-tight seal needed at the joints," says Atanga, "and the precast concrete boxes made off-site and delivered ready-toinstall helped in a big way to speed up the completion of this project on time."
Sue McCraven, NPCA technical consultant and Precast Solutions editor, is a civil and environmental engineer.
Sidebar B – Project Superintendent Tells It Like It Is
"I would rather work in a desert than in the underground conditions we faced at the Burling Slip playground site," says David DeMartinis, Trocom Construction project superintendent. Burling Slip is in the heart of New York's South Street Seaport historic district and is within sight of the Brooklyn Bridge and the Statue of Liberty; but it is what you can't see, what is beneath the pavement, that has a story to tell.
People familiar with the history of the Manhatten harbor area know that the site was home to bustling water-borne commerce. NYC's piers once handled one-third of the world's merchant tonnage transported by sailing ships. Consequently, the current site for the playground was covered by seawater for much of its early history. City garbage and waste were routinely dumped dockside in the harbor. This historical use of the seaport site meant that the excavation materials had the makings for a constructor's nightmare.
"Anyone who knows this area knows we've got a very high water table here," says DeMartinis, "with water just about 4 ft. (1 m) below the surface. The 4 ft (4.3 m) or so that we had to excavate for the sewer line was filled with historical artifacts as well as plenty of garbage. It was like digging into a landfill – it took twice as long as normal. Our biggest challenge throughout this job was keeping the water level down in the trench; we used a tremie plug (rat slab) continuously." Old bones and clay pottery in the subsoil necessitated the presence of a New York state archeologist during all excavation operations.
Locating and repositioning underground utilities (electric and telephone) further constrained digging at the site. To support the sewer line in the unstable substrate, Soil Solutions Inc. of New York installed 127 continuous-flight auger (augered-cast-in-place or screw) piles1, 16 in. (406 mm) in diameter and weighting 80,000 lb (36,300 kg). Beneath the precast culvert tunnel, the 45-ft (14-m) deep piles were placed in two rows, 30 in. (760 mm) apart and 6-ft (1.8-m) on-center.
"What most impressed me about the precast system," says DeMartinis, "was the ease with which the heavy 22,000-lb (10,000-kg) precast units were positioned and assembled. The precast quality was outstanding, in my opinion, and we had the added assurance of plant inspections and a certified product."

After months of recaps, we finally have some new story content in the Boruto Manga story and things are already looking interesting….
Now there wasn't much to talk about in this week's chapter so I'll keep this review as short as possible and just talk about some of the key moments from this chapter that interested me. Let's start with the conversation between Sasuke and Boruto.
So as it turns out, whatever Momoshinki did to Boruto, it seems that the curse mark on Boruto's hand is in fact affecting Boruto's body to some degree, and not in a positive way. We weren't told just how its impacting his body but if I were to guess by how Sasuke described it, it may be that Boruto's body is changing as a result of that curse mark been placed on his palm. Now whether or not he'll go through a painful transformation like how Sasuke did remains to be seen but it is interesting nonetheless.
Another possibly explanation is that it could be impacting his flow of chakra, given him an extra hurdle to overcome in the future as a result. We know he eventually learns how to use that power so it'll be interesting to watch him master it in the future.
I also found it interesting that Sasuke's rinnegan is impervious to time manipulation. That eye of his is full of surprises and I wouldn't be surprised if we get new powers introduced in future mangas.
Skipping a few pages, we learned that Toono Katasuke, the guy who made the ninja tools cheat gadgets, previously thought to be working out of self-interest, was in fact under a genjutsu and acting in accords to someone's benefit. Now the current suspect is a guy by the name of "Corpse Clone Shojoji" and he's currently one of the top ninja on the bingo book. Judging from his description, I don't think he's a laughing matter either.
A ninja that can kill and absorb the memories, skills and powers of a ninja sounds like a major threat, and has the potentially to even pose a threat to the hokage if not dealt with in time. Who knows, maybe he'll be somewhat of a major villain to Boruto, similarly to how Zabuza was to Naruto. Although I doubt that will happen since it's been made clear that Boruto will walk is own path as a ninja. Either I do hope to see this Corpse Clone guy in action soon and see what he's capable.
Besides the Naruto Blazing content aka those ninja cards thing which I though was pretty cool, the chapter was pretty interesting. I still can't get over the art-style but I'm sure I'll get used to it in time. Cool chapter nonetheless. Let me know what you think of the manga.
