This post is dedicated to my friend Joylita, lover of trees.
I love waking up each morning to the view of the gulmohar tree out my balcony, acoustic accompaniment provided by varying birdsongs. The trees in Bangalore are full of character, resilience, generosity and beauty, passive spectators to our active absurdity.
How lucky I was to to be presented this fittingly beautiful Italian poem. So here it is, my friend Maria Elena's translation of Mariangela Gualtieri's Certi alberi vicini alle case, intentionally doing away with the last two lines from the original, preserving much of the beauty of the poem and indeed much of its spirit but dramatically altering its eventual resonance. We shall call it Maria Elena's Certi alberi vicini alle case:
Some trees
Close to our homes
Linger in a sloping, reclined peace
As if they were pointing out
As if they were calling for
Us: the disquiet, the inattentive
Dwellers of the world.
Some trees patiently stand.
Next to the room of ours
At times
We shout out
A togetherness
That harbours a Tempest.

Who uses which media for primary listening and why?
halfbaked posted a topic in Physical digitalI find it odd for all the technical talk not much on music. Then again when I was in the business we would talk music all day. Well that was years ago lets fast forward with these current times. I'm not asking which format is better then whatnot. I am curious how the peeps here get their music on what formats. Since you guys have me back to stereo listening (thanks to all btw). I have started to look around and cd's seem to by hit or miss on so many of these cd format. Mofi was around but certainly that was about it for different re-masterings. Now I see many formats but no real one stop shopping as it seems for titles seem to be very limited runs. Also anyone here buying hi-res digital recordings as their primary listening? If anyone wants to throw in about discs and the format they're available in? This is not about the best format. But if you like a certain format for whatever reason it would be most appreciated. For overall selection from what I have seen digital seems to offer the widest selection. I know things like mastering made a good difference back in the day. I am assuming that playing field is more or less equalized. I'm a rocker with blues and soul filling in spaces. Which is why I talk about limited selection. If someone finds Audio Fidelity subscription enjoyable let me know. Don't let my taste taint what you like. I'm just looking at the playing field trying to figure what's best form. One time my ex came home while I was listening to an lp with only hunting horns. The look on her face was worth the price of admission. I know I still laugh about it. She probably still thinks maybe I should be committed. Not really but the look and the next few questions were priceless. If there's something you don't like about a format. Please no comments like "Robust yet naive with an hint of spice on your aural sensations". So let me know if you rather not be in the spotlight send a message, text, email. Carrier pigeons are not always reliable.

My name is Jorge, and I would like to introduce myself in this media, since I have just join the technical team of Bodegas San Alejandro. I was born in Zaragoza, but my family comes from the region of Calatayud. So, after studying Chemistry and Winemaking I realized that my future was going to be linked to the fascinating vineyards that I have always had so close.
But to achieve that, I have spent the last five years working in wineries in different countries (Spain, France, Italy, Chili, New Zealand and South Africa). In this time I have learnt a lot of things from really talented winemakers and viticulturists, I have had the opportunity of visiting incredible wineries and vineyards, and I have shared experiences with young people who want to learn and to contribute with the best of them to this sector. In conclusion, I have created my own vision of the wine world.
I was lucky to work at Bodegas San Alejandro last harvest, an opportunity that helped each other to realize that we had common values, concerns and vision, that is why I´m really excited about this new stage of my life. I´m going to share all my experience in order to, together with our chief winemaker Juanvi and the rest of the team, elaborate even better wines at Bodegas San Alejandro, contributing by this way to their philosophy of continuous improvement and innovation.
I belong to a generation of winemakers that we should make the wine interesting for the public, forget about technicalities and elitism, and transform the wine in a nearby, pleasant and desirable drink for the consumer.
Nature, science, history, intuition, detail… The wine world is fascinating, I hope I can share with all of you the next successes of Bodegas San Alejandro.
Jorge Temprado.

by Farrah Fray & Ahmed Drebika
This work appears in Khabar Keslan Issue 1. DISORIENT
I remember my brother used to climb onto the roof
Whenever the satellite wasn't working
My mother would wait until she was completely sure
Afraid to waste his time
But he found it fun, loved to climb
Sometimes my cousins would hold the ladder for him,
Other times he liked feeling the wall against his skin
Her face would shift between laughter and horror as she watched
But he'd always make her laugh,
The way charming boys do
One day our neighbour's son was hit by a stray bullet
He had climbed over the grapevines to watch a wedding
And my mother had a hard time saying that it would have been better if he fell
Or if there was no wedding at all
Or that no one picked fruits anyways,
But his mother still watered the grapes
And spoke about his eyes, which were the colour of dates
Under the sun,
Would answer every stray text
Or better still, joke with other women about death.

4 Non-Deadly Sins to Avoid in the Office (and Everywhere Else for That Matter)
Jobbatical HQ is celebrating Good Friday today. Whether or not this holiday holds any significance for you, we figured every day is a good day to be good. So we rounded up some horrible office habits for you to steer clear of. Committing the following sins won't earn you eternal damnation, but people might think you're a bit of a jerk, which is bad enough.
The humble brag
Oh, it's that person again. The one that's doing you a huge favour by talking to you at all, because they've got that much on their plate.
We know you're busy. We're all busy. But now we're mostly busy being annoyed with you. According to Elite Daily, here's why the humble brag has got to stop:
The "Your mother doesn't work here" approach
When people in the office aren't taking the time to load up the dishwasher or replace the toilet paper, what do you do?
You put up an anonymous sign—confrontation is scary and should be avoided at all costs. Or do the unthinkable and talk to the people you work with if something is bothering you. (I know, that does sound pretty horrible)
So maybe these particular passive-aggressive notes in The Sun are pretty funny. But that's not the point:
"No, but…"
Do you ever find yourself doing that thing where your response to literally everything someone says is "No, but [your opinion presented as fact]"? Stop doing that thing. It's really annoying. Humility is the new smart and if you don't agree, robots will take your job:
Complaining isn't just bad for people around you. It's really bad for you, too! First and foremost, however, it's bad for the rest of us. So stop it.
Not that I'm complaining.
Seriously though, being too whiny will kill you:
Note: At Jobbatical, we never do any of these things and everyone is a perfect angel.

My big girl job has left me exhausted and drained. Things are looking up as we have filled several open positions so now I won't have so many hats to wear. And I have been a single parent for almost 10 weeks as my husband has been out of town for training. I have a new found respect for single moms everywhere. So, since hubbie was coming home n Friday and I thought I could wrap up a big project, I planned for today off. And it worked. I do have a hard time completely disengaging from work, so I did respond to some emails, but no phone calls. Baby steps for me.
So what did we do on our day off? The boys slept in until 9. I can't believe monkey, who is 4, slept that late. He did stay up to watch the entire Super Bowl. I had a nice breakfast and read while they slept. Hubby and I chatted while he ate. Monkey made himself breakfast because he is mister independent these days, and then played with race cars. Hubby went to check out a new school for monkey to make sure we are in agreement, and yay we are.
Then I went for my short run. 28 minutes and no ITB pain. It is hard to get my steps per minute up. My max for this run was 174, but I was closer to 166 for much of the run. Who knew 180 was so hard to achieve?
I also treated myself to a herbal body retexturizer. It was a Groupon from a local spa. I prefer trigger point therapy but this was great for my dry skin.
And finally on tap for the day was a quick nap at hubby's insistence. Not a bad day. I should do this more often.

The major equity indexes closed out the trading day on Tuesday in positive territory, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average posting its fourth consecutive session of gains after Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell expressed an optimistic outlook for the economy and solid earnings bolstered the outlook for a robust reporting period.
In written statement Powell signaled that an era of stable economic growth may continue, but the Fed chairman was challenged in a congressional hearing by senators worried about the Trump administration's trade policies.
The Treasury yield curve hit its flattest in over a decade as Powell's upbeat economic view supported more rate hikes, with 2-year yields climbed to their highest in nearly a decade.
The consensus on the Street currently is for second-quarter S&P 500 earnings growth of 21.2 percent, up from 20.7 percent on July 1. Of the 39 companies in the index that have reported so far, 84.6 percent have come in ahead of Street expectations, according to Thomson Reuters data.
Earnings optimism gained strength from a report from the Federal Reserve showing an increase in industrial production led by a rebound in manufacturing.
The Nasdaq's advance was led by Facebook, Alphabet and Amazon, all of which hit record highs.
Of the 11 major sectors of the S&P 500, seven ended the session in positive territory, with materials and technology taking the lead.
Johnson & Johnson led the healthcare sector's 0.5 percent advance, rising 3.5 percent after exceeding earnings and revenue estimates.
Shares of Goldman Sachs fell 0.2 percent even though the investment bank reported better-than-expected earnings and said David Solomon would replace outgoing CEO Lloyd Blankfein.
UnitedHealth Group weighed on the Dow, its shares down 2.6 percent as the largest domestic health insurer reported higher-than-expected quarterly medical costs.
Netflix gained ground, rising 5.2 percent after falling more than 14 percent following the streaming services company's reported shortfall in second-quarter subscriber additions.
Approximately 6.00 billion shares changed hands on the major domestic equity exchanges, as compared to the 6.54 billion share average over the past 20 trading days.
Industrial Production Rises
Industrial production rose during June, helped by a sharp rebound in manufacturing and further gains in mining output, the latest sign of robust economic growth in the second quarter.
However, the outlook for the industrial sector is uncertain against the backdrop of escalating trade tensions between the United States and its major trade partners, which threaten to disrupt global trade. A strong dollar and shortage of workers also pose a risk to production, with factory surveys suggesting some strain in the supply chain.
The Federal Reserve said on Tuesday industrial production rose 0.6 percent last month after falling 0.5 percent in May. It accelerated at a 6.0 percent annualized rate in the second quarter after a 2.4 percent growth pace in the first quarter.
Manufacturing output surged 0.8 percent in June after decreasing 1.0 percent in May. A 7.8 percent jump in motor vehicle production buoyed manufacturing output last month. Motor vehicle production declined 8.6 percent in May after a fire at a parts supplier caused a sharp drop in the assembly of trucks.
Excluding motor vehicles, manufacturing production rose 0.3 percent in June. Manufacturing, which accounts for about 12 percent of the economy, is being supported by a strong domestic and global economy.
Strong industrial production and retail sales, together with smaller trade deficits in April and June suggest economic growth accelerated sharply in the second quarter.
Gross domestic product estimates for the April-June quarter are as high as a 5.3 percent rate, more than double the first quarter's 2 percent pace.
Fed Chairman Jerome Powell struck an upbeat note on the economy when he appeared before lawmakers on Tuesday, saying it was on the cusp of "several years" of strong jobs and low inflation.
Powell, however, said "it is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of current discussions over trade policy."
The International Monetary Fund warned on Monday that tit-for-tat import tariffs threatened to derail the global economic recovery, adding that the U.S. was especially vulnerable to a slowdown in its exports.
The Trump's administration's protectionist trade policy and retaliation by other countries will likely undercut business spending. The tariffs are also seen raising prices for consumers, which could slow domestic demand.
Manufacturing output increased at a 1.9 percent rate in the second quarter after growing at a 1.7 percent pace in first quarter. In June, there was an increase in the production of wood, computer and electronic products as well as aerospace and miscellaneous transportation equipment.
Mining production increased 1.2 percent, adding to the 2.2 percent rise in May. Mining output is now at a record high.
Oil and gas well drilling rose 2.9 percent in June, with further gains likely following recent increases in oil prices. Mining output accelerated at a 19.4 percent rate in the second quarter after notching a 11.0 percent pace in the first quarter.
Utilities output fell 1.5 percent in June, despite a heat-wave which engulfed parts of the country, after declining 0.7 percent in May.
With production increasing solidly last month, capacity utilization, a measure of how fully firms are using their resources, increased to 78.0 percent from 77.7 percent in May. It is 1.8 percentage points below its 1972-to-2017 average.
Officials at the Fed tend to look at capacity use measures for signals of how much "slack" remains in the economy — how far growth has room to run before it becomes inflationary.
Powell Upbeat
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said on Tuesday he sees the United States on track for years more of steady growth. However, he was challenged in a congressional hearing by senators worried the Trump administration's trade policies were already damaging businesses in their districts.
Powell in written testimony to the Senate Banking Committee and in his response to questions about a possible "trade war" largely discounted the risks and said there would be a positive outcome if the administration's bargaining ultimately produced a world of lower tariffs.
North Dakota Democrat Heidi Heitkamp said she was becoming frustrated with the idea of "short-term pain for long-term gain," noting that the energy sector in her state already had been hit by higher steel prices because of import tariffs and farmers were worried about permanently losing market share because of retaliatory levies imposed on their goods.
While Powell steered clear of direct criticism of President Donald Trump's tariffs on goods, particularly from China but also from U.S. allies in Europe and elsewhere, he acknowledged that tariffs were "absolutely" the wrong approach and said the United States "would feel it at the national level" if levies remained in place for too long.
The Fed's regional bank presidents have increasingly cited local business concerns about the administration's trade tactics, with higher input costs and uncertainty over the future offsetting the recent corporate tax cut and pushing firms to reconsider or delay investment plans.
The back and forth over trade was a chief point of friction in a Fed appearance that also saw Democrats challenge recent Fed decisions that seem to take a lighter hand in the oversight of major banks, while, in contrast, one Republican said the current positive economy and Powell's presence at the Fed had made the central bank "boring" to oversee.
For Powell, his testimony marked one of the strongest affirmations yet by a Fed leader that the central bank is within reach of its policy targets after years of struggling to pull the country back from a deep financial crisis and recession.
"With appropriate monetary policy, the job market will remain strong and inflation will stay near 2 percent over the next several years," Powell said in prepared remarks.
The Fed "believes that – for now – the best way forward is to keep gradually raising the federal funds rate" in a way that keeps pace with a strengthening economy but does not increase rates so high or so fast that it weakens growth, Powell said.
Powell did not offer his individual views on the appropriate pace of tightening or whether he thinks, as some of his colleagues have argued, that the Fed should pause its rate hike cycle sometime next year if inflation remains under control. But markets expect the central bank to raise rates two more times this year from the current target level of between 1.75 and 2 percent.
Powell will appear before a House committee on Wednesday.
With unemployment at 4 percent, Fed officials broadly feel they have met their mandate for "maximum employment." To the extent wages are not growing as fast as might be expected, Powell said continued low unemployment could help, but urged lawmakers to think about longer-term policies such as improved education that will ultimately drive outcomes for workers.
While he and other Fed officials have declined to declare a full "victory" over the Fed's other mandate of 2 percent inflation, Powell said that marker was "close."
The Fed's preferred measure of inflation hit 2.3 percent in May and was right at 2 percent after excluding more volatile food and energy prices.
"The recent data are encouraging," Powell said as he laid out the reasons why he felt the United States' near decade-long expansion was set to continue.

Coogler-Meetze House — Lexington, South Carolina
SC Picture Project | Lexington County | Coogler-Meetze House
This historic home is thought to be one of the oldest in Lexington County. It was built around 1790 by John Uriah Coogler on a site near Irmo where Ashland United Methodist Church now stands. Originally designed as a log cabin, it was later covered with pine boards and has served several generations of Cooglers. Alice Coogler, great-granddaughter of John Coogler, married Frank Meetze in the family home. Their wedding photo can be seen below. The house remained in the family until Frank Meetze's death in 1966.
Following Meetze's death, the house stood vacant for nearly 20 years. In 1982, the property surrounding the home was sold to Ashland United Methodist Church while the home itself was sold at auction to Ed Huckabee, a local veterinarian. Huckabee relocated the house to an address in Lexington and restored it.
In 2015 Huckabee's property, including the house, was sold to developers for the construction of Wellmore, an assisted living community. Due to joint efforts by the Dutch Fork Historical Society and Museum, the Palmetto Trust for Historic Preservation, Lexington's Historic Preservation Board, and private citizens, the home was moved to a 1.5-acre site that it now shares with the offices of attorneys Jean Derrick and Bill Gorski on Main Street. Derrick and Gorski plan to once again restore the home and rent office space within the historic structure. The photo at the top of the page shows the house two months prior to its 2015 move. The photo below shows the house at its original location near Irmo.
Interestingly, Derrick and her husband reside on 25 acres of land once owned by Silas Coogler, grandson of John Coogler and father of Alice Coogler. Many thanks to Michael Mascari, who supplied the photos for this page and also worked with the Dutch Fork Historical Society and Museum as well as with the Palmetto Trust to help preserve the Coogler-Meetze House.

Math professor honored for teaching
Thursday, May 14, 2015 2:00 AM
Pittsburg, KS
This fall, Cynthia Huffman will begin her 21st year of teaching mathematics at Pittsburg State University. She said she loves her job today just as much, if not more, than ever before.
"As a student at Pitt State, I was influenced by wonderful professors who instilled a love of learning within me," Huffman said. "Now I am blessed to work with great colleagues as we try to continue that legacy. So many of our students are going on to make a difference in the world and that makes me very proud."
Huffman's passion for teaching is one of the reasons she recently received the Kansas Section of the Mathematical Association of America Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics. The award recognizes university or college mathematics teachers "who have been widely recognized as extraordinarily successful."
At PSU, Huffman has taught everything from The History of Algebra and Mathematics for Education to Algebraic Number Theory and Multivariate Polynomial Theory. In 2010 and 2014, she was selected by students for the Robert K. Ratzlaff Outstanding Faculty Award. She was named a University Professor in 2013.
Huffman said one of her goals in every class she teaches is to open students' minds to the broader world around them.
"I believe it is important to expose college students to new ideas and concepts in order to help them become better problem solvers and better equipped to succeed at their careers," Huffman said. "As our world becomes more technologically advanced, it is vital that members of society have a solid background in mathematics as well as good problem solving and critical thinking skills."
Huffman grew up around the Pitt State campus and earned two degrees from PSU before earning her Ph.D. from New Mexico State University. She credits her parents for much of her inspiration to teach.
"My mom was an elementary school teacher and my father (Wilmer Huffman) was an accounting professor at Pitt State," Huffman said. "I come from a family of teachers so it's sort of the family business."

You may not have the time to go for an elaborated makeup look every day, but you can always style your hair. Hair styling tools have evolved with time, but there are certain products, which can be considered 'must haves'. In this post, we will discuss the most important hair styling tools that you should have in your stash.
- A blow dryer. On the go, you need something that can dry your hair without a lot of effort, and that's where a blow dryer comes in. There are all sorts of options, and some of them are designed to be foldable, so that you can carry them along when you travel. Avoid blow drying your hair too often though.
- A straightening iron. Also known as hair straighteners, these are ideal for taming frizzy hair. If you don't like curls, you can have a flat iron in your bag at all times for that glossy and neat look. Flat irons come in all sorts of shapes and plates, but if you are looking for an investment purchase, go for the titanium models. You can check out the best here as well. The idea is to read a few reviews, which helps in comparing the options.
- A curling iron. As the name suggests, you can get the perfect curls with a curling iron, and there are options for barrels, so you can get the kind of effect you need. Curling irons are ideal for that wavy look, and you can check for tighter curling barrels too. Some come with a wide range of settings, so that you can do more. It must be mentioned that some of the flat irons can be used for curling, and therefore, you can save money for the cost of one.
- A hair steamer. If you have dry and damaged hair, you need to get steam, and for that, you need a hair steamer. These are not very expensive, but the standalone models can cost a tad more and may need extra space, as well. Check the options and do compare the prices before taking a call.
Finally, do consider investing in heat protecting sprays and creams, which are needed to protect and minimize hair damage. You don't want to end up with burned hair, which is not a rare thing for girls who use flat irons too frequently. Also, go for good brands and models that have good reviews.

Satellite technologies represent, like other wireless technologies an, easy target for potential attacker. To protect against these threats, proper security technologies have to be applied. The objectives of this study are to determine how existing security technologies can be used for satellite networks, to assess their advantages and disadvantages, to consider the costs of these technologies and to recommend architectures for their deployment.
Furthermore emerging security technologies shall be analysed concerning their potential benefits for satellite networks. Finally a specification for a demonstrator shall be given, which is able to verify the suitability of the recommended security architectures for the scenario of business intranets connected by satellite networks.
One of the key issues is the influence of satellite network characteristics to existing and emerging security technologies. An example of these characteristics are the TCP accelerator technologies frequently used in satellite networks. These technologies often modify transport layer information, which is not accessible if certain security technologies are in place. A second example for these satellite characteristics is the possibility of an easy and efficient way to deploy IP Multicast, which restricts again the selection of adequate security technologies.
Another key issue is the benchmarking of new security technologies currently under development and their usability within satellite networks.
The following are the main benefits of this study:
The work undertaken for this project consisted of analysis and research only, and has not included development, simulation and experiments.
The project is complete.

And you wait, await the one thing
that will infinitely increase your life;
the gigantic, the stupendous,
the awakening of stones,
depths turned round toward you.
The volumes in brown and gold
flicker dimly on the bookshelves;
and you think of lands traveled through,
of paintings, of the garments
of women found and lost.
And then all at once you know: that was it.
You rise, and there stands before you
the fear and prayer and shape
of a vanished year.

Faye Toogood Presents the Trade Show
16.09.2017 →
For London Design Festival 2017, Faye Toogood has invited 50 of the leading creative forces in the country – drawn from a wide range of disciplines, from furniture design to art and photography – to take part in a unique collaborative project. The principle behind The Trade Show is a simple one: Toogood presents each of the participants with one of her signature Spade chairs (created for this project in a special limited-edition sandcast-aluminium), and in return they donate a representative piece of their own work. These pieces form the core of a special exhibition at the Garage gallery in Brompton Design District – the selfsame location where Toogood launched her debut furniture collection in 2010.

With New Hampshire reversing its decision to opt out, every state governor opted in for the FirstNet proposed Radio Access Network buildout plan as the 90-day decision period came to an end Dec. 28. The end of the arduous process set the stage for the long anticipated build out of a broadband public safety network in the 700 MHz.
Joe Mullin: Looking forward to 2018. I think we have tremendous opportunities. FirstNet is going to be a big driver. We have a presence in the rural, less populated areas. There is going to be a need for FirstNet coverage that we can help provide.
Ron Bizick: We have seen some activity in markets where we own towers, which appears to be for a FirstNet, AWS and WCS joint rollout. That is consistent with the one-truck roll approach mantra of AT&T for some time now. We aren't a big tower company, so I'm fairly certain if we are seeing activity the public tower companies and the other privates are as well
I don't think there were many folks surprised when all the states and territories opting in. The Opt-out path for a state was a long, costly and difficult one. Recalling a conference I sat through over a year ago focused on FirstNet, I remember saying to myself, this opt out process is a death by 1,000 cuts. In the end, having all the states opt-in is good for towers if for no other reason than timing. Opt out states could have been delayed in building out the first responder network by as much as a little over a year given the process and approvals along the way.
Tony Peduto: Another big story in 2017 was the lack of mergers and acquisitions in the U.S. tower market. Companies with towers to sell are waiting for FirstNet to build out and for the carriers to increase their capex. As a result, their towers will be leased up more and their exit price will be higher. There are a lot of single-tenant towers out there. It's a good opportunity to hold until you can get that second or third tenant.

Last week I got a letter from Crouse Hospital. It was addressed to "Dear Patient" and was co-signed by Nancy Williams, head of Patient Relations, and Betty O'Connor, director of nursing.
The letter invited me to dinner on Thursday, April 10, because I was "a past recipient of Medical-Surgical care"; the purpose was to discuss the care provided on 5 South.
It would be a focus group of 10-15 women, first-come first-included. After we had dined and focused, we each would be given a complementary $75 gift card for our time and travel. We were asked to RSVP to a secretary in Administration.
I RSVP'd within minutes of receiving the letter, then sat back and waited for them to renege on the invitation. I believed that the letter had been sent out to random patients and that they didn't want to hear from me specifically. I wondered how long it would take them to realize who they'd invited, and who would dis-invite me, and what reason would be given.
Meanwhile, I reflected on the reasons why my experience on 5 South had been so bad, what priorities I would ascribe to the problems, and what solutions I could recommend. I was hopeful that Crouse actually wanted to learn from their patients. I am far removed from the horrendous 104 days I spent on 5 South, and have benefitted so much from the alternative therapies I instituted that I was prepared to be helpful, not vengeful.
This morning the dis-invite call came from Nancy Williams. The reason given was that 5 South is mostly a surgical floor and the focus group was intended for post-surgery patients.
Do you believe her?
I don't believe that Crouse Hospital could write a letter intended solely for post-surgical patients and not mention that in the letter. And why would they only want to know about the nursing care for surgical patients? Don't us medical patients matter?

The record was set near Houston, Texas, on an airport runway called Ellington. The car, driven by John Kiewicz, made two runs, one with backwind, 3.2 knots (6 km/h), the other against wind – 5.4 knots (10 km/h) At first attempt, the speed of 300 km/h was achieved in 13.18 seconds and 14.08 seconds for the second.

During the D23 Expo, director Rian Johnson was asked to compare The Last Jedi to the rest of the Star Wars franchise.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens was 2015 hit but its script was reminiscent of A New Hope. Even when the The Last Jedi's storyline is still kept under wraps, fans are ready to compare it to The Empire Strikes Back. However, Rian Johnson, who is hoping to put his own unique spin on the film.
Speaking to Fandango at D23, Johnson was asked how he would compare his Star Wars film to the rest of the Saga. "The temptation is to say, well it's a middle chapter, so it's got kind of an Empire thing,"Johnson explained. "But at the same time, I really wanted to maintain the same sense of fun that J.J. [Abrams] had in The Force Awakens, that to some extent in Return Of The Jedi, which I was like 10 years old, that was primed for me when that came out, and the sense of playfulness, I think. So when I say Empire, I guess I don't want to give the impression that it's kind of a dark, gloom and doom. It was also very important to me that this was a fun adventure. I don't know, it's a mixed bag of a lot of different stuff. And hopefully some unique stuff too.
Check out the video below, and catch Star Wars: The Last Jedi in theaters December 15, 2017.

FLAB Winter survival guide – Feet
Many of us struggle to keep our feet warm during the winter, here are our top five items to help keep your toes nice and toastie.
- Socks
- Toe warmers
- Overshoes
- Winter Cycling boots
- Household helpers-tinfoil/clingfilm
Layering your socks works really well at keeping your feet nice and warm.
Our Fat Lad At The Back merino wool thermal socks offer great protection against the cold.
When it turns really cold wollie bollie socks from defeet come into there own. These non itchy heavyweight wool socks are awesome at keeping your feet warm and if your shoes allow it when it's near freezing pop a thinner pair of socks underneath.
Sealskinz waterproof and windproof socks can be worn on there own and are great if you don't wear cycling shoes and can't get overshoes to fit your chosen cycling footwear. They also work really well layered with socks and overshoes although you do have to accept that if you are cycling for a long time in the rain it will inevitably run down your legs and into your shoes no matter what you're wearing.
Toe warmers
These are great for those in between times of years like autumn and spring. Really easy to get on you just pop them on over the toes of your cycling shoes.
You can get all different types of overshoes, some are just made of material to make you more aerodynamic and some are windproof and waterproof.
Neoprone overshoes offer your feet the most protection from the winter weather. They can be tricky to get on so make sure you buy the correct size.
Winter boots
The all in one faff free way to keep your feet warm and dry in winter, wind and water proof and a doddle to get on and off and no more wrestling trying to get your overshoes on. Northwave winter boots
Household helpers - clingfilm
Using Cling film as a vapour barrier can be amazingly effective at keeping your feet warm and dry.
Humble cling film is apparently used by loads of pro cyclists in winter to help keep their feet warm. Sir Bradley Wiggins once tweeted how he used cling film to keep his feet warm on a winter training ride.
Wear a thin pair of socks then wrap feet in cling film and pop a pair of thicker socks over the top.
Rain and wind are kept from getting directly to your skin.
Household helpers – Tinfoil
It's readily available in the home or at a cafe stop and makes a great 'emergency blanket' for cold feet.
Use it to line your cycling shoes to help block out cold air coming through the vents.
Wrap over your socks to help keep your toes warm.
Warm it up on the radiator beforehand to help keep the heat in a bit longer!

Library closures in many towns and villages across East Sussex are being opposed by Uckfield Town Council.
Members feel it right to support other communities, even though the town's library is not threatened by the current round of cutbacks.
Hours were cut at the branch in a previous round of savings.
This time complete closures are proposed in communities including Ringmer, Polegate and Mayfield
A consultation is under way and you can take part. Here is a link to an online consultation document and questionnaire.
Cllr Diane Ward, Trust Independent, Uckfield Central, said at the town council she was "shocked and stunned" that people were saying the majority of people would have to drive a maximum of ten to 15 minutes to reach the nearest library.
Country buses
"Do they not realise that not everybody drives? she asked.
She said rural areas were affected and pointed out the poor state of country bus services.
She said all age ranges used the library.
"You have youngsters listening to stories, people learning how to use a computer, people doing their homework.
"They are talking about people being able to get things online.
"There are a lot of people of all different ages who would not know how to do anything with a computer."
Cllr Duncan Bennett, Deputy Town Mayor, Trust Independent, New Town, said the cuts would affect people who were the least able to travel.
"I think we should advise the county that this is a cut too far," he said.
"There has got to be a better way than just getting rid of something.
"We know what happens, once you lose it, it will never come back.
Under threat'
Cllr Ian Smith, Independent, Ridgewood, pointed out how the affect of cuts compounded over a number of years.
"I think we should say we support our colleague parishes who are under threat," he said.
Councillors also pointed out that a library was not just a lending service but was a place where people could access many other services.
They agreed that the county council's proposals were a step too far, and suggested a workable alternative be found which would look to the voluntary sector and the support they might be able to provide to keep these smaller libraries open.
Mobile library
Members noted the proposed loss of mobile library services which had typically supported communities within the more remote and rural areas, as well as opening hours which had already been cut across all libraries in the county.
It was also noted that if a number of libraries were closed next year, where would these proposals end? Would this become a pattern year on year to make further savings? This would entail deeper cuts.
Members resolved to show their support for other parishes, saying libraries were recognised as valuable services and it was important that these should be retained at all cost.
They said East Sussex County Council needed to be cautious before making any decisions.

Obama Inaction Upholds ITC Ruling For Funai
Osaka, Japan – Funai Wednesday celebrated President Barack Obama's failure to overrule a U.S. International Trade Commission ruling that value-TV supplier Vizio stop importing televisions that infringe on Funai patents for receiving digital over-the-air TV broadcasts.
Under the Section 337 statute, Obama had a 60-day period, which ended today, in which to overrule the ITC and revise the order and failed to do so.
The ITC issued a final determination and remedy order on April 10, 2009, finding that Vizio and others infringe Funai's digital television patent (US Patent No. 6,115,074).
The ITC also ruled that 10 other companies and their subsidiaries also violated the Funai patents in television imports.
"Allowing this comment period to expire without change signals that President Obama is in accord with the US patent process and Funai's achievement at the ITC," stated Tomonori Hayashi, Funai Electrice president and CEO. "Funai remains committed to respecting the intellectual property rights of others and will continue vigorously protecting its own intellectual property rights against infringers."
Funai said the following companies are now barred from importing or selling infringing digital television products in the U.S.:
Vizio, Inc., formerly known as V. Inc. (U.S.); AmTRAN Technology (Taiwan); Proview International Holdings (Hong Kong); Proview Technology (Shenzhen); Proview Technology (US); TPV Technology (Hong Kong); TPV International (USA); Top Victory Electronics (Taiwan); Envision Peripherals, Inc. (US); Syntax-Brillian (US); and Taiwan Kolin (Taiwan).
"The digital televisions that are now subject to the ITC's remedy orders are sold under the following brands: Vizio, Proview, AOC, Ölevia, and Envision, among others," Funai said.
Vizio responded Wednesday by saying that its TV models that were ruled in violation of the 6,115,074 patent are "now obsolete" and "no longer shipping and no longer in production."
"Vizio believes that the claims of infringement are meritless because the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (the "PTO") has issued a Final Rejection order relating to the '074 patent," according to a company statement.
"We at Vizio deeply respect the rights of intellectual property upheld by the PTO, which does not apply to this claim. Unfortunately, we are not immune to frivolous lawsuits and we reserve the right to defend ourselves of meritless claims at all times," stated Laynie Newsome, Vizio sales and marketing communications VP.
"The products involved with this particular claim are obsolete, and no longer in mass production. Therefore we believe this action will not impact our ability to conduct our business in normal fashion."
Vizio said it will continue to fight Funai "on all possible avenues to protect its rights," including filing an appeal on June 10, 2009, with the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
Vizio believes the company's position will be vindicated on appeal. In addition, on June 10, 2009, Vizio will seek emergency relief from the Federal Circuit to stay the enforcement of the ITC's Exclusion Order pending appeal.
Vizio said it has also presented its non-infringing technical solution to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
"We at Vizio are working with all appropriate U.S. government offices and departments to resolve this matter as quickly as possible," stated Rob Brinkman, Vizio operations and administration VP.
Vizio has also filed a separate lawsuit against Funai alleging that the Japanese manufacturer "has violated the federal Sherman Antitrust Act, the Clayton Act, and numerous provisions of California's unfair competition and antitrust law by unlawfully and unfairly [discriminating] against Vizio in the licensing and enforcement of the '074 patent, to the detriment of trade and commerce."
Vizio said it now produces and distributes televisions designed with a non-infringing technical solution, which excludes the allegedly infringing feature from the chipsets in its television products.
"Since the ITC's limited exclusion order applies only to chipsets that contain the allegedly infringing feature, Vizio believes their customers will continue to receive a continued supply of Vizio's television products," the company said.
Vizio has also sued Funai and LG Electronics for allegedly infringing patents it holds on the reception of digital QAM cable signals.

With summer quickly upon us, you haven't got long to properly perfect your summer style. This is the time of the year when everyone wants to look their very best, and I'm sure you're no different. It pays off to put some thought into your summer style because you don't want to have regrets later when you can't find that perfect outfit to wear each morning. Read on to learn more about how to get this right.
Find the Right Off the Shoulder Dresses
Strong dresses that feel appropriate for the time of year while also remaining casual and comfortable will always be important during the summer. If you haven't tried them in previous summers gone by, you should see if you can find the right off the shoulder dresses that suit you. They're very comfortable when the weather's warm, and they can also make you look fantastic too.
Learn About What's Hot Right Now
Before you decide how you want your style to look and come across this summer, you should look into some of the fashion trends that are hot right now. Of course, you shouldn't slavishly follow the changing winds of fashion. However, this is about getting inspiration. You never know, this season's fashion trends might really appeal to you. And it's always better to be in the know.
Make Use of a Versatile Striped Shirt
Shirts are always interesting to wear during summer because there's so much you can do with them. You can tie them up if you want to show some skin, or you can buy an oversized shirt and use them as a dress. That versatility is what makes them so fun and useful to you during summer, so be sure to make use of them. The striped style is particularly appealing in summer.
Invest in Some Aviator Sunglasses
It's the little things and accessories that often make the biggest difference when you're trying to bring together your outfit. If you only invest in one key summer accessory this year, make it a good pair of high-quality aviator shades. These sunglasses will go with pretty much everything else you might choose to wear, and you'll look endlessly cool when wearing them. What's not to like about that?
Stick to Light and Pastel Colors
The colors you choose to wear this summer will have a massive impact on your style overall. If you wear colors that are too dour and dull, it will probably not feel appropriate for the season, so that's something you should be thinking about right now. If you want that airy and refreshing look, light and pastel colors are definitely the ones to go for.
The best days of summer are just in front of us, so now is the time to start giving more thought to your summer style. If you can get this right, you will always look stylish and on point during the summer months. It'll give you the confidence you're looking for and help you enjoy yourself that bit more.
