White Top Containerboard usage to experience continued growth in Europe
Feb 25, 2013, 01:00 EST
BOSTON, Feb. 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Demand growth for white top liners has increased significantly higher than the overall growth in corrugated packaging during the past year. According to a study published today by RISI, the leading information provider for the global forest products industry, white top liner segments will likely post better profit margins over their brown counterparts as demand for white top liner in Europe continues to grow. 2012 Outlook for European White Top Containerboard Markets with 2013 Update examines and forecasts market developments until 2016.

"Over the last decade, the European containerboard market has already grown by close to 5 million tonnes. Although white top liners only make up a 12% share of total European containerboard demand, demand for white top liners is being driven upward by printing quality requirements on the part of end-users and brand owners for retail-ready packaging," said Orifjon Abidov, Senior Economist for European Paper Packaging at RISI.
2012 Outlook for European White Top Containerboard Markets with 2013 Update provides a historical analysis of the white top containerboard market from 2002 – 2012 and covers supply and demand trends by country, trade, production costs, pricing, and profitability until 2016.
Outlook for European White Top Containerboard Markets Includes:
- Recent trends in European containerboard markets
- European White Top Containerboard Producers and their market shares
- Demand growth rate changes for each containerboard grade since 2002
- Capacity growth rate movements since 2002
- Anticipated European White Top Testliner and White Top Kraftliner market developments through 2016
- Price trends for White Top Testliner and White Top Kraftliner since 2000
- Production costs and price changes over the next five years
- Profitability developments for White Top Containerboard since 2000
- Profitability expectations over the next five years

Not at all. I was going to buy a slighty used Corolla, but they needed to clear the '08s to make way for the early introduction of the '09s. So I got a new '08 cheaper then I could a used 07 or 06

Shanghai police have arrested 10 Turkish nationals suspected of aiding terrorists in China's Xinjiang region by "supplying fake passports."
These 10 arrests follow the arrests of 11 Chinese nationals, which took place in November, and an incident on January 12 where "Chinese police shot and killed six people in Xinjiang as they attempted to detonate explosives."
According to The Guardian, nine of 11 arrested in November were "[purchasing] falsified Turkish passports for 60,000 yuan each" and the remaining two were helping facilitate the purchases.
Many of those accused of aiding terrorists are Uighurs, "a Muslim, Turkic-speaking minority group" in Xinjiang. Hundreds have been killed in ethnic violence in that region over the past two years.
The Chinese government has blamed the deaths and violence–"which include market bombings, riots, [and] sieges of police and government offices"–on "religious extremism and the influence of pernicious foreign groups." Among the 10 Turkish nationals arrested at the Shanghai Pudong airport, some were departing for Syria, others for Afghanistan and Pakistan.
On August 6 Breitbart News reported that the city of Karamay responded to "Islamic terrorists" in Xinjiang by "[banning] people with large beards or Islamic clothing from traveling on public buses." NDTV.com reported that the ban means "people wearing hijabs, niqabs, burkas, or clothing with the Islamic star and crescent symbol" could not ride on public busing.
Reuters reported that dozens of people were killed in Xinjiang in September in violence instigated by "explosions." As rioting ensued, Chinese police shot and killed "40 people" who were trying to blow themselves up.

On time, and the job was completed without any "extra's, because we didn't expect this and we didn't expect that."
Maybe you can get the job done for less, but my job was a relatively difficult replacement of the water supply line to the house. The crew showed up in the morning and I had water back on in the early afternoon, and 70 feet of sub terrain new piping. The digging was done with minimal disruption to the garden, and the work passed inspection the first time. The finished work exceeded my expectations.
4 stars Anonymous Verified customer
Work was done professionally and technician was knowledgable; however he was nearly three hours late and we had to call twice to see if he was still coming.
4 stars Ed H Customer since 2018
Your time to get to the job and diagnosis were perfect and the repairs were done in a very timely manner, thanks so much. We have a little problem with how the diagnosis was explained to us though...it was described as a collapsed pipe (which of course needs replaced immediately) when in fact is was a deteriorated pipe that while it was a trouble spot and would clog again, didn't need replaced immediately. We'd have liked to have been able to decide using that information rather than a different diagnosis.

Civil engineering has been taught at Clemson since the University was founded in 1889. Civil engineering became a department in 1932 when the engineering department became the School of Engineering.
Today, the department offers graduate degree programs leading to the MS and PhD degrees with specializations in applied fluid mechanics, construction materials, construction engineering and management, transportation systems, structural engineering and geotechnical engineering. Student organizations include the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) and the Chi Epsilon Honor Society.
More information can be found in this graduate handbook.
Although most graduate students come to Clemson with a strong interest in one area of civil engineering, some take courses from multiple areas within the department. Others opt to take courses from other departments, including environmental engineering and science, hydrogeology, engineering mechanics, experimental statistics, business, construction science and management, city and regional planning and industrial engineering. You will have flexibility in the selection of courses to accommodate your career objectives.
MS You may elect a thesis or non-thesis option in the MS program. MS degrees are normally completed in three to four semesters. A 12-month plan of study leading to the MS degree can often be developed if you are planning to pursue a design-oriented degree in one or more areas of civil engineering. This option is not available in all areas, but often can be accomplished by combining two related areas of civil engineering. Specific course offerings vary year to year.
Most MS graduates seek careers in industry that utilize their newly acquired skills and knowledge in their field of expertise.
Others elect to seek a PhD degree leading to a career in academia or advanced research or application.
PhD The doctoral program in civil engineering leads to the PhD in one of the six supported emphasis areas: applied fluid mechanics, construction materials, geotechnical engineering, construction engineering and management, structural engineering and transportation systems. The time frame for completing a PhD typically ranges from two to four years. Admission to the PhD program usually requires a master's degree, but under certain circumstances, it is possible to enter the PhD program directly from a BS degree program.
The Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Laboratories are equipped with instrumentation and house a collection of flumes and modeling basins.
The Experimental Geomechanics Laboratory contains specialized equipment for measuring dynamic properties, shear strength, consolidation and hydraulic conductivity.
The Computational Geomechanics Laboratory contains computers and software necessary to perform analytical and computational research in braced excavation systems, liquefaction, slope stability, earth dams and pile foundations.
The Construction Computer Laboratory is equipped with software packages used within the construction industry.
The Concrete Materials Laboratory contains equipment for research in the area of Portland cements, concrete, aggregates and supplementary cementing materials.
The Asphalt Rubber Technology Service Facility contains asphalt testing equipment in an aggregate lab, a binder lab, a mix design lab and a performance-testing lab.
The Wind and Structural Engineering Research (WiSER) Facility is a premier laboratory for the study of wind effects on structures. Consisting of four distinct research areas—the boundary layer wind tunnel, the structures lab, the long span reaction platform and the outdoor slab—the facility tests the structural performance of buildings and bridges. The facility also supports hurricane field investigations in South Carolina, North Carolina and Florida.
The Transportation Systems Laboratory has both mobile and stationary components with specialized traffic surveillance equipment and computing systems.
The faculty and graduate students in each of the emphasis areas work closely together to form thrust areas of research in natural and man-made hazard mitigation and construction materials. Following is a listing of the primary interests of the different research areas.
Applied Fluid Mechanics
- Open Channels & Sediment Transport
- Turbulence & Turbulent Jets
- Hydrologic Modeling
- Contaminated Sediments & Flux
- Coastal processes and wave mechanics
Construction Materials
- Asphalt & Portland Cement Concrete Materials
- Recycling & Reuse of Waste Materials
- Asphalt & Concrete Pavements
Construction Engineering & Management
- Infrastructure Maintenance Management
- Materials Management
- Process Control & Quality Assurance
- Project Delivery & Contract Strategies
Structural Engineering
- Structural Behavior, Analysis & Design of Buildings & Bridges
- Wind Engineering
- Earthquake Engineering
- Reliability & Risk Management
Geotechnical Engineering
- Evaluation & Design of Geosystems
- Earthquake Engineering
- Geomechanics
- Fuzzy Analysis & Neural Networks
Transportation Systems
- Transportation safety and evaluation
- Facility Design
- Traffic Operations
- Intelligent Transportation Systems
The majority of graduates from the civil engineering program seek employment in industry or government agencies. Recent graduates have gained employment with both national and regional agencies, including Kimley-Horn & Associates, Walter P. Moore, Black and Veatch, Metromont Prestress, Tindall Corporation, Fluor Corporation, Lin Consulting, URS Corporation, Highland Engineering, SCDoT and the US Army Corps of Engineers.
The MS program has 72 students, while the PhD program has 28. Of the 100 students in the programs, 80 percent are male, 97 percent are full-time students, and 40 percent are international students. Lower-level graduate classes generally have an enrollment of no more than 30 students, and upper-level classes average 15-20 students.
If you wish to pursue a graduate degree in civil engineering at Clemson University, you should submit your application, preferably through the Graduate School website http://www.clemson.edu/graduate/admissions/apply/ by July 15 for fall semester admission or December 1 for spring semester admission. If you are seeking financial assistance, you should submit your application, including your request for financial assistance, by December 1 for fall semester admission or by September 1 for spring semester admission. Admission is based on academic performance, standardized scores and reference letters. Your statement of purpose provides insight into your goals and mutual interests. Relevant work experience should be highlighted in your application.
More than 80 percent of current civil engineering graduate students receive some type of financial assistance. Most students are hired by individual faculty members to conduct research on externally funded projects. The department also hires a number of students to assist in instructional activities. Both quarter-time and half-time assistantships are awarded based on the expected weekly time commitment. Students receiving these assistantships also qualify for reduced fees. The department awards three research fellowships to outstanding PhD students. In addition, the College of Engineering and Science and Clemson University award recruitment fellowships. Civil engineering faculty members take responsibility to nominate outstanding applicants for these fellowships. Faculty members also help identify external fellowships and assist in the application process.

The Real Harlem
Harlem: The Unmaking of a Ghetto
Old heads in Harlem will tell you that in the 1960s, particularly after the riot of 1964, white policemen were afraid of walking an uptown beat. They were reluctant to come through even in patrol cars. Those who did were often on the take. White landlords would try to collect the rent, guns at their hips. Their black tenants defied them and in many cases the landlords walked away from their buildings, left them to run down.
Harlem was the place where you could do or get anything and get away with it. People would disappear for days into the cathouses and shooting galleries. One guy told me that at his corner of 124th Street and Lenox he once saw the garbage collectors in their truck nodding from heroin. They were parked for hours, the trash uncollected when they finally left. Delivery trucks at stoplights got held up. Sometimes a driver would be enticed by a woman to a room where he was then tied up. Down in the street, an orderly line was forming for the sale of his truck's contents.
Drug money circulated fiercely. People could get shot in the middle of the afternoon and if you chanced to be on the street where it happened, you knew that you had seen nothing, heard nothing, and would say nothing. Many gave up because the streets and the schools were so bad, especially middle-class blacks who could at last go elsewhere. But jobs were plentiful in the city. If you didn't like your boss, an old head told me, you could quit and have a new job by the end of the day. Some people had jobs as well as welfare. Blacks felt that they ran the place. You could pass out on a traffic island in Harlem and no one would bother you all day long. The only people around in those days were black, old heads say. If whites found themselves in Harlem, then they had to run. But you can meet whites who have spent their lives in Harlem, in their family homes, tolerated because they'd always been there, hadn't run.
Things began to change under Mayor Ed Koch. Though the city itself had no money, black policemen in the 1970s were not afraid of Harlem. The story is that the first black police commissioner, Benjamin Ward, told dealers to get off the corners, which meant that the avenues, the main thoroughfares, were restored to ordinary people. But things fell into something worse with the coming of crack cocaine in the mid-1980s. A deranged population hunted the streets. Everything sexual and druggie went on in unbelievable numbers under the bridge at 125th Street or in Marcus Garvey Park, one block…

Java, Indonesia
Plataran Borobudur is located on the hills of Tanjungan Village in Central Java.
When to go
Straddling the equator, Indonesia tends to have a fairly even climate year-round. Rather than four seasons, Indonesia has two – wet and dry – and there are no extremes of temperature between winter and summer. In most parts of Indonesia, the wet season falls between October and April and the dry season between May and September. December and January see Indonesia at its most humid and rain tends to come in sudden tropical downpours, but it can also rain for more prolonged periods.

International SOS to Host Webinar on 2014's Top Global Political and Travel Security Risks
With 2014 shaping up to be a busy year for global travelers, expert panel will focus on avoiding unnecessary risks
Jan 23, 2014, 12:09 EST
TREVOSE, Pa., Jan. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- International SOS, the world's leading medical and security services company, the global political and security risk consultancy Control Risks, its joint venture partner, and ASIS International's CSO Roundtable will host a complimentary webinar on how global organizations can prepare and manage their travelers in the year ahead—a year shaping up to be filled with opportunity and risk at every turn. This is the third session of an informative webinar series hosted by International SOS and CSO Roundtable.
Global Political and Travel Security Risks 2014: Looking Ahead
Tuesday, Jan. 28, 2014, 1 - 2 p.m. Eastern
Last year was a busy one when it came to global events. There were security issues in Ukraine, Bangladesh and South Sudan, as well as attacks at the Westgate Mall in Kenya, during the Boston Marathon, and, most recently, in Russia as the Winter Games approach. The New Year has not started quietly, with continued security threats in the Central African Republic, tensions between Japan and China, as well as other risks. The year 2014 looks to be just as complex as 2013.
Security specialists will highlight the global political and travel security risks these issues will present for internationally-minded organizations and look at what may lie ahead in 2014. We will share best practices to help organizations be as resilient as possible during turbulent times and to assist senior security executives as they provide travelers with advice on remaining safe and secure wherever they go.
Our expert panel will look at recent headlines, as well as current and historic data and tie it all together for attendees.
- Pablo Weisz, Regional Security Manager, Americas, International SOS and Control Risks
- Michael Moran, Vice President, Global Risk Analysis, Control Risks
- Peter Piazza, Vice President, Strategic Operations, ASIS International
Who should attend:
Anyone who manages or is responsible for employees overseas will benefit from this webinar, including those in the areas of security, medical, human resources, business continuity, risk management, travel, HSE and legal.

Valparaiso head coach Homer Drew announced this afternoon that guards Matt Kenney and Tommy Kurth have both signed National Letters of Intent and will join the Crusader program as freshmen for the 2009-2010 season.
Kenney, a 6'3", 190 lb. guard out of Mooresville [Ind.] H.S., was an honorable mention All-State performer last year as a junior, averaging 18.7 points, seven rebounds, four assists and two steals per game for the Pioneers while also connecting at a 56% clip inside the arc. He also earned All-Indianapolis Metro West First Team accolades, as well as All-Conference honors in 2008.
"Matt comes from a very athletic family and his sister Lauren is currently playing for Valpo's women's team," said Drew. "Matt is very athletic for his size and can play above the rim. He can be effective slashing to the paint, and he has also worked hard on his shooting and has extended his range out to the 3-point line."
Kurth, a 6'1", 175 lb. guard out of Penn [Ind.] H.S., is ranked as the #54 point guard in the Class of 2009 by ESPN.com. He has been among the top-25 scorers in the area the last two years and was also an All-State honorable mention performer in 2008. A two-time All-Conference honoree, Kurth has been a part of two conference and sectional champion squads with the Kingsmen, who also captured the regional title and advanced to the semi-state final during his freshman year. He was named sectional MVP as a sophomore and earned All-Sectional honors as a junior.
"Tommy also comes from a very athletic family," said Drew. "He is a true point guard who handles the basketball extremely well with either hand. He has wonderful court vision as well. He can also move over to the two-guard, as he has improved his shooting with dedication and hard work."

International firm taps NOLITC for first community travel mapping
Last Updated on Friday, 6 January 2017 08:46 Written by NOLITC Administrator Friday, 16 December 2016 12:09
A GLOBAL mapping company has tapped the Negros Occidental Language and Information Technology Center (NOLITC) in Bacolod City to conduct its first community travel mapping in the country.
HERE, which is one of the digital map providers covering areas in 78 countries with main headquarters in Germany and United States, is currently working on enhancing its location content in the Philippines.
HERE Philippines Inc. Community Analyst Roneil Domael, who led the two-day community travel mapping at the NOLITC until Thursday, said the activity was first conducted in Indonesia and Malaysia.
In replicating it in the Philippines, Domael said the company has identified Bacolod City with the students of NOLITC as their first community members.
"Being a government-run school, we are looking at NOLITC's active participation in promoting Bacolod City and the whole Negros Island Region especially in terms of tourism," he said, adding that through community travel mapping, they aim to provide more "packaged" data in the maps for travelers when they are in the city or anywhere in the region.
Community travel mapping is basically a community effort where members will explore from one area to another in order to collect data like common places, structures and other landmarks.
These data will be processed into three-dimensional (3D) models to be integrated in the map. Unlike with other map providers, Here Maps application is capable of offline use, Domael added.
"In improving our map, we want it to look like 3D not only the location and structure but even the small details of the building," he said, adding that they target to make the "better Bacolod map" available to the public starting next year.
After Bacolod City, Here is planning to expand its community travel mapping to other nearby areas in the province.
For her part, NOLITC vocational school administrator Cristina Orbecido said that the international partnership will benefit a lot not only the school but also the government particularly in tourism promotion.
Aside from enhancing the skills of the students, Orbecido said their inclusion to the digital mapping initiative will also boost NOLITC especially on its visual graphics design offering.
"This is also NOLITC's contribution to the local tourism industry as 3D landmarks will provide investors and tourists the ease to navigate," she added.

SPACES Celebrates Valentine's Day With Addition of 'Hello Kitty' to HoloLens, Continuing Its Work in Mixed Reality
PLAYA VISTA, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — February 14, 2017 — A sweet Valentine's Day present to the virtual world, SPACES Inc. is helping Sanrio's Hello Kitty spread her hearts and kisses into the Microsoft HoloLens with a brand-new Hello Kitty Actiongram theme pack of characters.
This Smart News Release features multimedia. View the full release here: http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20170214006179/en/
SPACES Inc. is helping Sanrio's "Hello Kitty" spread her hearts and kisses into the Microsoft HoloLens with a brand-new "Hello Kitty" Actiongram theme pack of characters, featuring 14 "Hello Kitty" holograms. (Graphic: Business Wire)
Thanks to HoloLens, Hello Kitty can bring her sweet surprises anywhere HoloLens users are. The new Hello Kitty theme pack for Actiongram features 14 Hello Kitty holograms. SPACES plans to add additional Hello Kitty characters, including Badtz-Maru, Keroppi and Pompompurin, in the coming months.
SPACES, which was formed in 2016 by VR pioneers from DreamWorks Animation, was one of the first mixed-reality companies to work with HoloLens, bringing top characters and brands to the groundbreaking technology. Last year, SPACES introduced a set of My Singing Monsters Actiongram characters for HoloLens.
"Working with Microsoft has allowed us to lead the way in creating the next generation of mixed reality, and showcases our skill at combining technological innovation with amazing technology and world-class IP," said SPACES CEO and co-founder Shiraz Akmal.
Dana Zimmerman, studio manager for Actiongram, said, "We believe there's huge potential for storytelling via mixed reality and are excited to forge forward with the next generation of creators."
Based in Los Angeles, SPACES takes its name from the base unit of virtual reality, a "space," and boasts one of the most accomplished teams in the VR industry, with artists, designers and programmers from film, television, video games, visual effects, theme parks and animation.
Actiongram's gallery of more than 500 different animated options gives creators the ability to introduce professional-level quality effects into their videos, make what was otherwise difficult, or even impossible, possible. The Actiongram catalog spans fully 3D visual effects like explosions, lifelike zombies, whimsical unicorns, and more.

Food and Drink
Rice and curry and curry are the staple food of Sri Lanka. The Western nationals might prefer curry and little rice, but Sri Lankans need lot of rice and several curries of which one will be hot. Not all curries are spicy hot, but if the name carries "devilled", as in devilled fish or devilled chicken, it will be served with a flame red chilli sauce. The best rice and curry meals are those that are home cooked, preferably in clay pots. Those served in country rest houses for local guests are also of the same calibre.
Snacks of Sri Lanka,
which are also called "short eats", range from savoury patties to deep fried
hard boiled eggs, hoppers, battered rolls stuffed with vegetables, fish buns, etc.
This type of food is ideal when you are on the road as it is less messy. A wide range of international dishes are also available at main tourist centres. As aleading tourist venue, Sri Lanka has one of the best hygiene records in Asia and stomach complaints are uncommon. Nevertheless, you might like to comply with the following guidelines:
• Bottled water purchased at a cheaper price at local shops where it is abundantly available than at top hotels. Ensure that the seal has not been tampered with. Top hotels also supply flasks of boiled and filtered water. Ensure you do not become dehydrated, especially after strenuous exercise. Coconut water is renowned as a settler of a queasy stomach, although some may prefer to take their medicinal coconut in the form of arrack – the local firewater;
• When eating, consider the old advice: 'boil it, bake it, peel it or ignore it.' Be particularly wary of salads and unpeeled fruit. Ensure your meat is thoroughly cooked. If you have any doubts, overlook the buffet and order freshly–cooked meals even if it takes a little longer;
• Wash your hands thoroughly before each meal if you wish to follow local customs and eat with your hands (without cutlery). When eating out, there is a wide array of restaurants in Colombo serving local as well as international cuisine, fast food, 5 star hotel buffets, etc. The five–star hotels in Colombo also offer a variety of continental, domestic and other Asian cuisines. It is advised to eat at hotels when travelling out side of Colombo for hygienic reasons.

The Rise of the Fork
Hands have always been used to eat with. As food became hotter and sloppier, knives were developed from larger cutting blades, and spoons are simple scoops. But forks weren't used in ancient eating. And when some started using them, they were considered somewhat pretentious.
A detailed history of the fork can be found at Slate. Link -via Fark
(Image credit: Flickr user Caro Wallis)
In the 11th century, forks were in use in the Byzantine Empire. An illustrated manuscript from that period shows two men using two-pronged forklike instruments at a table, and St. Peter Damian, a hermit and ascetic, criticized a Byzantine-born Venetian princess for her excessive delicacy: "[S]uch was the luxury of her habits … [that] she deigned not to touch her food with her fingers, but would command her eunuchs to cut it up into small pieces, which she would impale on a certain golden instrument with two prongs and thus carry to her mouth." Damian was sufficiently offended by the woman's table manners that when she died of the plague, he regarded it as a just punishment from God for her vanity.

Classic 700 Frame Saw with Turbo Cut Blade
Adding a Japanese blade to a classic European handsaw design advocated by teachers like Tage Frid and Anthony Guidice is pure genius. The Classic Frame Saw's German maker makes the ergonomically
curved cheeks and handles of the frame from plantation grown tropical hardwoods, and the stretcher from cedar. The entire frame is beautifully sanded, oiled, and polished, and tension is applied
through a stainless rod and thumbscrew. The assembled saw rests easily in the hand and feels much lighter than its appearance suggests. The heart and soul of this saw, though, is its Japanese style
Turbo Cut blade. It's impulse hardened, thinner than its western counterparts, and the tooth profile allows fast, clean cutting in any direction through wood with very little set. The saw comes with
a 1-1/4" wide x 12 TPI blade. Overall blade length is 27-5/8" with a hole to hole measurement of 26-1/2". The Classic 700 is 39" long and 16" tall, and will also accept any
of the other 700mm blades we offer. The distance
from the bottom of the bridge to the teeth on the blade is 7-3/8".

Watch how to make this recipe.
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
In a large roasting pan, place the butt fat side up. Pour the liquid smoke evenly over, and then sprinkle with the rub. Cover the pan with plastic wrap, and then tin foil, crimping the foil around the edges to seal tight. If you need 2 pieces of tin foil to cover the pan, make sure to fold them together to seal the joint. Bake for 10 hours, or until the bone pulls out easily.
Pull the meat apart, reserving any juices. Serve right away or put in zip-top freezer bags and cool flat in the fridge or freezer. Reheat in a slow cooker, the oven, or in individual portions in the microwave. Enjoy with your favorite sauce and slaw.

'Rabbi of his people, leader of his nation, lamp of luminance, blessed be your arrival for peace' Unless you passed Egerton Road this week and have a smattering of Aramaic and more than that of English you may not be aware of the arrival of the Lamp of Bobov in our midst. And by the time you read this the Lamp will have travelled to radiate its luminance elsewhere so you will have missed out.
The reason I bring this to your attention is because I always wonder why is it that we are happy to put into Hebrew , Aramaic or even Yiddish words we would never say in English. Sometimes, like the Yiddish section of the JT, it's because they put into Hebrew characters anything they wish to keep out of sight of the goyim or, worse, the JC. But there's nothing harmful about describing a 50/60 something as a lamp yet the most his followers would ever say about him in English is 'Grand Rabbi'. So why this reticence?
I have a couple of theories.
1. They know it's a load of rubbish and are embarrased of others who lack their fervour reading it. As for Hebrew speakers they're all used to it and those who disapprove can be dismissed as heretics or opponents. Anyway most of them use even more extravagent epithets for their own Grands so simply to keep up with the halberstams and teitelbaums you need to lay on the lamps.
2. The embarrasment is of themselves. English being a language used for logical discourse will cause the silly titles to jar in their own brains. By contrast, since Hebrew is used for prayer of which half of it in anyway not understood, and even that which is understood is mumbled through automatonlike at a speed far exceeding light, nonsense can be spouted out as no one gives it a second thought assuming they had a first one. It allows the propagandists to use ancient, anachronistic mumbo jumbo without as much as a shokel as the message is not in the meaning but simply being there in a size 72 font multiplied by the number of bulbs illuminating it. It evokes sights and mental sounds of a golden age and of musty books to which they wish to nail their rabbi's shtreimel. And as far as that goes it does a fairly good job.

Nextrials Is the Only EDC Vendor to Support Connectathon 2013 Tests of Live Information Sharing Between EHRs and Clinical Research Systems
Nextrials Is the Only EDC Vendor to Support Connectathon 2013 Tests of Live Information Sharing Between EHRs and Clinical Research Systems
SAN RAMON, CA and CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwire - Jan 16, 2013) - (IHE North America Connectathon) - Nextrials, Inc. (www.nextrials.com), a leader in clinical research software and services, will participate for the fifth consecutive time in the annual IHE North America Connectathon sponsored by IHE (Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise), to be held January 28 - February 2 at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. This year, the company is the only electronic data capture (EDC) vendor to support live data streaming between electronic health records (EHR) and clinical research systems.
Nextrials plans to showcase the flexibility of Prism®, its award-winning clinical trial management platform; Prism is one of the clinical research industry's few EDC platforms fully integrated with platforms used for EHR by the healthcare industry. During the Connectathon demonstration, Prism will facilitate live data streaming between multiple EHR vendors and data recipients and will be testing the following profiles and/or standards:
Connectathon is the healthcare IT industry's only large-scale interoperability testing event dedicated to establishing standards that address specific clinical needs in support of optimal patient care. The event is an important qualifier for the HIMSS13 Interoperability Showcase™, being held at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans March 3-7, 2013.
"Nextrials is the only EDC vendor to consistently support Connectathon in demonstrating how platforms utilized for clinical research can intersect with those used in the healthcare setting," said James Rogers, CEO and co-founder of Nextrials. "Connectathon fosters collaboration between vendors, allowing us to achieve the greater goal of cementing new standards for better healthcare information exchanges. By participating in real-world clinical scenarios, we can solve configuration issues -- and this ultimately benefits hospitals, caregivers, patients and clinical researchers."
Nextrials' award-winning Prism melds sophisticated clinical trial management functionality with EDC in a single, integrated package. By receiving a constant flow of data, Prism enables sponsors and sites to fully utilize real-time integration of disparate information and data sources, such as a hospital's EHR or patient records, to better provide a continuum of care for patients enrolled in clinical trials.

Gatorade does replenish electrolytes, according to WebMD.com. The University of North Carolina's Dr. Steven Zeisel considers Gatorade better than water due to its ability to replenish electrolytes lost in sweat.Continue Reading
The National Institute of Health reports that electrolytes carry a charge and affect blood acidity and water level. Gatorade's electrolytes include potassium, magnesium, calcium and sodium. These electrolytes provide the adequate amount to the body, specifically the muscles, says Zeisel. He claims that the sugar content of Gatorade is less than the amount that one burns through exercise. In addition, Zeisel reports that additives do not make significant differences in electrolyte replenishment.Learn more about Fitness & Exercise
