From factory production lines to self-driving cars, automation is an omnipresent fact of life. As more and more business owners replace unreliable and costly human labour with fast, efficient machinery, it would appear we're hurtling toward a future only Isaac Asimov could have dreamt up. But will the culinary industry, surely dependent on the human touch, be next to succumb to this trend?
Debate has been ignited by news that a French start-up company plans to open a fully 'autonomous restaurant' staffed by a three-armed 'pizzaiolo robot', supposedly capable of making up to 120 restaurant-quality pizzas per hour (for comparison, this is three times more than a professional human pizzaiolo can produce in the same time). The benefits of this kind of technology aren't difficult to imagine: maintenance of the robot will be a cost factor but will fall far short of paying the wages of three trained pizza chefs, and the uniformity resulting from the lack of potential for human error means far fewer pizzas being sent back to the kitchen.
In fact, robots are slowly creeping their way into the fast food industry all over the world; American company Chowbotics produces a robot called Sally who prepares fresh salads in front of customers, fast-casual chain Caliburger plans to introduce a burger-flipping robot in 50 of its restaurants, while in Japan one can visit eateries staffed entirely by a production line of automatons. To what extent can this automation continue? Michael Chui of consultancy group McKinsey Global Institute claims that 54% of the tasks performed by humans in the catering and hospitality industries could be performed by a machine.
Reasons for the widespread growth of automation are numerous, but most centre around one factor: cost efficiency. New minimum wage laws and extensions of employee rights across the world are making human labour more expensive than ever, while at the same time the cost of these complex machines is lowering, with the average sophisticated automaton costing 40% less than in 2005.
The initial costs involved in automation may still be high, but compared with those involved in employing humans, who require a regular wage, take sick days and holidays, and can only work up to the maximum government-imposed weekly limit, the long-term benefits of machine labour mean that this trend shows no sign of stopping.

Brooke and Daniel's Wedding Reception
18th of May
Brooke and Daniel's Wedding Day
Around an hour later, after lots of photos were taken, everyone arrived at the hotel and went into the room were the reception was being held. It was pretty big, there were lights everywhere, a large dance floor in the middle of the room leading up to a stage and DJ at the end of the room. All around it were tables for the guests with balloon centerpieces in the middle of each of them along with a bar near the entrance. The maid of honor, bridesmaids, groomsmen, best man, flower girl, ring bearer and Wes, David and Jeff sat on the long, main table at the front of the dance floor, leaving 2 seats for the bride and groom. And on the end of the table there was the 3 tier, heart shaped wedding cake that looked amazing. Will, Emma, Burt, Carole and the New Directions were on the table next to them and the bride and groom's family's were on the table next to them. Eventually everyone was hushed by the DJ. "Now, may I please have your attention as we welcome the new Mr. and Mrs. Daniel and Brooke Duval! Please join me in congratulating the happy couple!" Everyone clapped and cheered as Brooke and Daniel walked hand in hand into the room and straight to the dance floor wearing microphones. The music began to play and practically everyone's eyebrows shot up when they heard what song it was and Brooke began to sing.
( A/n: Daniel/Brooke/Both.)
Take my hand, take a breathPull me close and take one stepKeep your eyes locked on mine,And let the music be your guide.
"Oh my god, I love this song!" exclaimed Noah making everyone look at him with a raised eyebrow. "... not that I've ever seen the movie..."
"But we went to see it..." stated Finn gaining a glare from Noah and everyone laughed then turned their attention back to the dancing couple.
Won't you promise me (now won't you promise me, that you'll never forget)We'll keep dancing (to keep dancing) wherever we go next
It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like youIt's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we doAnd with every step together, we just keep on getting betterSo can I have this dance (can I have this dance)Can I have this dance
Take my hand, I'll take the leadAnd every turn will be safe with meDon't be afraid, afraid to fallYou know I'll catch you threw it allAnd you can't keep us apart (even a thousand miles, can't keep us apart)'Cause my heart is (cause my heart is)wherever you are(can I have this dance)Can I have this dance
Oh no mountains too high enough, oceans too wide'Cause together or not, our dance won't stopLet it rain, let it pourWhat we have is worth fighting forYou know I believe, that we were meant to be
It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you
(like you)It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do (way we do)(can I have this dance)Can I have this dance
Can I have this danceCan I have this dance
They finished with a kiss and everyone cheered, clapped and even a few people wolf-whistled. After everyone had quietened down the DJ announced the 'Father/Daughter Dance'. Daniel sat down as Brooke called up Brittany and their dad to dance. Blaine's eyes went to Aimee as many father and daughter's got up to dance. Aimee was smiling sadly as she watched people dance. Blaine and Cooper looked at each other and sighed. Will noticed, got up from the table and walked towards her. "May I have this dance?" he asked politely, holding out his hand.
Their eyebrows shot up but she smiled slightly. "Really?" He just nodded and grinned when she agreed. They walked to the dance floor and did that adorable thing where she stood on his feet as they danced until the song ended and it was time for the 'Mother/Son Dance' and a rather pregnant Emma - who had been watching Will and Aimee - made her way over to Blaine and asked to dance. He accepted and they made their way to the dance floor with all the mom's and son's.
They danced pretty well - considering there was a pretty big baby in the way - until the song ended and it was time for the welcome toast by the bride's father. He stood up and smiled proudly. "I just wanted to welcome you all here today," He began. "I raise my glass to toast my daughter, Brooke. She's dreamed of this day since she was a young girl, and now her dream has come true, complete with her very own Prince Charming. Brooke and Daniel," He looked over at them as he spoke. "I wish you much love and happiness in your new life together." He then turned to everyone else in the room. "I ask you all to join me to today in congratulating the bride and groom and wishing them all the best for a long and happy life together." Everyone smiled and raised their glasses to the toast. And a couple of minuets later, it was time for the first course; salad. Kurt sat there eating happily while Blaine - who was obviously sat next to him - was looking around the table. On the end of the table with the cake was Ryan facing Quinn, sat between Ryan and Kurt was Aimee who was facing Santana. Next to Santana, facing Kurt, was Brittany who was sat next to her sister, Brooke. Brooke was facing him and was sat next to Daniel who was facing Cooper. Next to Cooper was Phoebe who was across the table from Nick who was sat next to his boyfriend Jeff. She was also sat next to Wes who was facing Jeff and on the end of the table was David. They all ate while talking about anything that popped to mind and it was petty awesome, Blaine could tell that everyone was happy; the way it should be... He then noticed Quinn and Puck looking at each other and rolled his eyes, then he saw Santana and Brittany's joined hands. Well... that explains a lot. Blaine smiled to himself and after the salad it was time for the toasts.
As the made of honor, Brittany stood up first and picked up her cup - she had the kids drink because she didn't want to get drunk. "Hi everyone!" She smiled happily. "Santana helped me write a toast..." She picked up a piece of paper and showed it so everyone could see it was wrote in crayon. "... Okay, so for those who don't know me, I'm Brittany, Brooke's younger sister. I wrote a little story down because Santana told me that its nice to share a story about the bride and groom or something..." She looked over at them and began to tell the story. "Well, it all started when they were in high school. She had just broke up with this guy who cheated on her and then Kurt, Quinn, Santana and me took her to a party to try to cheer her up and in walked Daniel... she was staring at him, drooling." Everyone laughed lightly while Brooke's face turned bright red. "He came over and they started talking... then later on they were making out." She grinned. "Then, next thing she knew... they were falling for each other and she was pregnant by graduation. It was okay though, to be honest some people thought that he was going to run but he didn't. He stayed and they went to college together and raised a beautiful little boy called Ryan." She winked at Ryan and carried on with her toast. "And I just want so say how happy I am for you both and I'm happy that we have a new person in our family. Well, at a wedding the two family's join together so i'm pretty sure that means that all of you our part of our family really." She laughed lightly as she raised her glass along with everyone else.
She sat down next to a blushing Brooke as Nick stood up. "Hey everyone, I'm Nick, Daniel's little brother." He smiled and took a breath. "Well, now that you all know what happened in their relationship, i want to tell you about my brother during this time." He grinned and looked at Wes, Jeff, David, Blaine and Cooper who started laughing at Daniel's face. "Well, lets start with the party... we were there with him." He gestured to his boys. "We never met you guys," He looked over at Kurt and the girls. "Cooper, Jeff and I walked over to say 'hi' when we saw them making out, but the others didn't meet her until later. But anyway, my brother was well... he was smart and got pretty good grades but he also got into a little trouble, although that was probably because of Blaine and I." He smirked. "He always took the blame for us and then dealt with his horrible love life. Then when he met Brooke he was so happy and we were all happy that he fell in love, his love life wasn't horrible anymore... Even though he would talk about her ALL the time." He laughed lightly. "But, he's happy and like Brittany said, we got a new family out of it! So... I love you guys and wish you the best." He finally finished and sat back down. After that, it was time for the main meal and even though he had no idea what it was, Blaine enjoyed it. And eventually everyone got up and started dancing as Santana and Brittany got up on the stage and started singing.
Everyone had an amazing time and soon it was time for a slow song. The song began to play and most people went into pairs - The newly weds, Finn and Rachel, Santana and Brittany, Nick and Jeff, Mike and Tina, Sam and Mercedes - who were apparently now dating - and anyone else who was with someone. Blaine looked over to see Noah sat drinking something and glancing over at Quinn ho was sat with Aimee and Ryan. He and Kurt walked over to him, hand in hand. "Hey." Blaine smiled knowingly.
"Sup." He said simply.
"Why don't you ask someone to dance, Puckerman?" asked Kurt as he looked around sarcastically. "Oh, I know what about Quinn over there!?" He mused gaining a glare from the boy with a mohawk.
"She won't dance with me..."
"Dude, seriously..." grinned Blaine. "She's into you!" Noah just stayed silent making him roll his eyes. "... Fine, if you don't then I will!" Puck raised an eyebrow, daring him. Blaine just laughed and began to walk towards her, Noah's eyes went wide when Blaine shouted over to her. "Hey, Quinn!" He stood up, practically ran over and grabbed his shoulder. Blaine tapped the boys face and pushed him closer to Quinn.
"Hi Puck." She smiled sweetly. Kurt and Blaine were dancing again along with Ryan and Aimee ho were holding hands and swaying along to the music.
"Hey," He grinned. "do you wanna dance?" He asked holding out his hand, she nodded and took it. They walked onto the dance floor and began to slow dance. Noah sighed happily when she rested her head on his chest. He rolled his eyes when he saw Blaine wink at him. As the song ended Quinn looked up at him and hugged him close then as she pulled away they locked eyes again. She leaned in and kissed him and Noah kissed her back passionately. They pulled away for air and stared at each other. Puck opened his mouth to say something but then closed it - he had no words. He leaned in and kissed her again. "So," He grinned. "You wanna go out sometime?"
"Yes." She smiled and kissed him swiftly on the lips.
"You know what this means?" She smirked as he raised and eyebrow. "I'm your girlfriend now, so no messing around with other girls." He just laughed lightly and kissed her softly.
A couple of hours later Mr and Mrs Duval cut the cake and then went on stage. "We just want to thank you all for coming to our wedding!" Grinned Daniel.
"We love you all!" Brooke laughed. "Now, everyone get ready." She gestured to the Bouquet in her hands and watched as everyone turned to her. "Lets see who's next!" And with that she turned and threw it behind her. It flew over many peoples heads making them turn to see who caught it. Everyone's eyebrows raised and they began to laugh as they saw Blaine with the Bouquet is his hand. Kurt laughed lightly as he gestured to it and winked at him.
The rest of the night went by with dancing and drinking and it was amazing most of the guests had already left as it was getting pretty late. The only people left were the staff, newly weds, Wes, Jeff, Ryan, Noah, Quinn, Aimee, David, the best man, Maid of honor, groomsmen and the bridesmaids.
Blaine glanced around the room to see that Aimee and Ryan were sat down on a table eating cake and drinking lemonade; he grinned as they waved at him. He carried on around the room and saw Nick and Jeff, Santana and Brittany, Puck and Quinn and - surprisingly - Wes and Phoebe were dancing and making out, he laughed lightly and smiled at Cooper who was talking to Daniel and Brooke. He then turned his attention to Kurt who looked both shocked and worried. He followed his stare and saw the neanderthal at the door.
What the fuck is he doing here?
Blaine stopped dancing and clenched his fists, Kurt noticed and put his hand on his arm. He loosened and looked over at him. "Blaine, please don't do anything stupid." He pleaded.
Blaine took a deep breath and took his hand. "He can't be here..." He looked back over at the door too see Karofsky spot him and begin to move towards him. Kurt squeezed Blaine's hand and watched and Blaine began to speak. "What are you doing here Karofsky?"
"I just came to see the party!" He yelled and smirked as people turned to look at them and Blaine moved in front of Kurt to protect him. "Oh, no..." He laughed. "Don't worry, I don't want him this time. I told you this wasn't over and I made sure you understood that" He raised his eyebrow as he saw Blaine's confused face then laughed as it hit him. "Oh, he didn't tell you..?" He looked at Kurt and watched as Blaine furrowed his eyebrows.
"Tell me what?" Blaine asked looking at Kurt.
"My last message." stated Karofsky. "A couple of days ago, while he was in the dumpster, I told your little fairy that if you didn't come this time we would come to you." He gestured back to the door where the football team were standing. Everyone around them looked either shocked or confused. Brooke was trying to get people away from the scene while Wes, Jeff, Nick, David and Noah were standing back; ready to get into this if they had too. Cooper was now stood next to the bar eyeing Blaine and Karofsky. Blaine was guarding Kurt and the girls were with Ryan, Aimee, Brooke and Daniel - all apart from Santana who looked ready to pounce on someone if they fucked up the night even more then they already were. He looked back to Blaine and realized that he could still tell how the boy was feeling - sure everyone could see that he was pissed - but Cooper could tell he was hurt to. He put down the drink he had forgot he was holding and leaned against the wall next to the bar.
Blaine looked at Kurt - obviously hurt - he gave Kurt a look to say Why didn't you tell me? Kurt just looked at him guiltily. I'm sorry.
Blaine nodded slightly and loosened his grip on Kurt's hand as a sign for him to step back, which he did. Santana took his arm and dragged him over to her as Blaine spoke. "You couldn't of came to me yourself...?"
"If was more fun this way." Karofsky stated. "This way, we could give him a couple of bruises and piss you off even more."
Blaine clenched his fists again, Kurt noticed and tried to walk towards him but got pulled back by Santana. Cooper noticed and moved slightly closer in case he was going to be needed. "Blaine, he's not worth it." informed Kurt.
Blaine seemed to calm down slightly at the sound of Kurt's voice, he unchallenged his fists. "I think you and your little crew should leave." He smirked and began to turn around.
"I think we should kick your ass." A footballer yelled making Blaine laugh lightly.
"You assholes do realize that I don't want to spoil this for everyone and you defiantly don't." Blaine warned. "Stay away from Kurt and leave. Now." The footballers seemed a little shocked as everyone began to turn around.
"You know what!?" yelled Karofsky as he grabbed Blaine's shoulder and turned his around. "Screw you." He threw a punch at him causing Aimee to scream. Blaine looked over at her and watched as Brittany picked her up and let her cry into her shoulder while the boys - other then Kurt - were in and beating the shit out of a couple of footballers. Blaine waited until Aimee couldn't see what he was doing and began to fight back, he was pissed off that Aimee had to see that.
The boys managed to get them outside, still fighting. Wes, Nick, David and Jeff managed to get rid of most of the footballers by chasing them down the street. Cooper ran outside to help and urged everyone else to stay inside. He froze and looked for his brother, everyone was yelling, screaming and putting up a good fight. He watched as Noah beat the crap out of one guy, who ended up on the floor and ran over to Blaine who was surrounded by three guys. Cooper's eyes widened. "Get away from my brother!" He ran beside Noah and grabbed the football players. Noah, Blaine and Cooper glanced at each other and exchanged a smirk before teaming up and fighting them together until they all heard the police sirens. Their eyes widened as they all began to run but Noah, Blaine and Cooper froze.
"Police, Hands up."
Perfect. Blaine cursed himself for this, he hated himself for letting this happen.

At age 5, she had never left her home neighborhood of Newtown. Wide-eyed and frightened, she stiffened and refused to speak when confronted with a new face or a new situation. Despite extra attention from her family, her teacher, and a group of dedicated reading volunteers, she wasn't making enough progress towards literacy to graduate from kindergarten to first grade.
A trip to the Rainforest changed everything.
Through Selby Gardens' partnership with Y-Reads!, this anxious, withdrawn child visited Selby Gardens and the Ann Goldstein Children's Rainforest Garden. As she ventured onto the canopy walkway, those brown eyes widened again – not in fear this time, but in sheer delight.
Looking out over that astounding vista, seeing the beauty and wonder of nature laid out before her like a verdant buffet, she changed. She opened up. Her visit to Selby Gardens was an important step on the path to a more confident approach to her world.
As the Y-Reads! Coordinator noted, "Being able to go to Selby Gardens and walk up that bridge and look out from the tree canopy was undoubtedly mind-blowing for her…You should have seen her at Meet the Teacher Day: she was holding up her head and smiling. Even her mom said she had come out of her shell."
WOW. What a difference a Rainforest makes! Not just to a frightened young girl but to everyone who experiences Selby Gardens' special magic.
You can make a difference, too, with a year-end gift to Selby Gardens. And here's some really great news:
Every dollar you contribute through December 31 will be matched dollar for dollar, thanks to a generous $50,000 challenge grant from the Amicus Foundation! Any gift – $1,000, $100, $50, $25 – whatever feels right to you – will be doubled, and your generosity will ensure that you and countless others continue to enjoy everything you love most about Selby Gardens.
We need your help to earn the whole $50,000 match – make your gift to Selby Gardens Annual Fund today!

Well I would say its an excellent machine for home use, but Im probably biased as I just bought one. ;) I havent actually got it home yet though, so cant comment on what its like to use.
My understanding is that this machine is basically just a re-badged La Cimbali Junior (Faema is actually owned by Cimbali). Have you checked out the review of the Cimbali Junior on Home Barista? See here: http://www.home-barista.com/junior-buyers-guide.html
As to whether you should buy it, well that depends on what condition its in, and the price.

This book was all over the place with little to no focus. There are 3 different parts to the story which leaves the reader perplexed. There is a cute story in there at the end but it's very unexpected. The writer took a really strange direction with this book.
It's very rare to find any book that can make you laugh and cry, is a parody of a rhyming classic, and teaches kids new alphabet vocabulary. This is a shining example of such a book.

Let's see exactly what makes this brand name spanking new tool so terrific.
Kyvio Features

Thanks to the drag and drop home builder that Kyvio functions…
Creating your high converting sales funnels ends up being a much smoother procedure.
And speaking of making things simpler.
Kyvio also features a many amount of templates…
That way you can get a design template that looks interesting you and modify it from there.
And then of course is Kyvio split screening.
So yes Kyvio does feature split screening…
And that's probably among the most convenient ways to increase your conversions (with little effort).

That's one excellent thing I like about this software application (and a lot of the more recent ones nowadays)…
Is that they are putting a great deal of tools under one roof in order to make your life simpler.
That method you don't requirement 100 different softwares.
When it specifically comes to Kyvio email marketing here is exactly what you can anticipate:
- Limitless lists within their list home builder.
- Reporting analytics to see how well your campaigns are doing.
- Capability to connect your own SMTP and send out as numerous emails as you like.

If you want to get access to Kyvio you will need to go through their main page.
(this shows that if you snooze you lose)!
What Are Some Of The Kyvio Integrations?
Great concern.

Kyvio Vs ClickFunnels
Anytime a brand-new landing page or funnel contractor comes out…
People always wish to know how it accumulates to the behemoth of the industry.
( the behemoth being ClickFunnels obviously).
In my viewpoint?
Kyvio hasn't been out long enough to make a big sufficient damage in the market.
After all.
How can you take on among the best softwares when it's been out for many years?
It's almost unfair to be able to compare both of these tools till more time has actually gone by.
But if you would like a various viewpoint about the topic…
Feel totally free to enjoy the Kyvio review video down below.
I hope that video assisted you out a little.
Keep in mind that both of the tools include trials so you can always check them out.
And then naturally is what you came here for.
Or you can click the long banner down below to achieve the very same result.
Which should practically do it.
Thanks once again for encountering this page and revealing more information about Kyvio With Squarespace.
I hope you take pleasure in Kyvio 😛

Ryan McDonnell
"Apollo quality live comedy" Three Weeks "candid and incisive brand of comedy" The Irish Post Belfast boy Ryan McDonnell is no stranger to laughs in his home town and is currently building up quite a reputation for himself on the UK comedy circuit. Ryan interjects a sharp wit and Irish charm in his observation of everyday life. Sometimes bizarre, often dark he'll guide you on a unique journey through the world as he sees it. 2010 saw Ryan make his debut at the Edinburgh Comedy Festival in the prestigious Pleasance Courtyard from which critics at Three Weeks acclaimed his stand-up as "Apollo quality live comedy". Ryan was a runner up in the 2009 Amused Moose Laugh Off final in Edinburgh and a 2008 Magners Comedy Awards finalist. Other notable events have included Bloom Festival On Tour at Camden's Koko in front of over a thousand people and playing to a packed and loving crowd in the Electric Picnic"s ladies toilets. Venturing to the Edinburgh Festival in 2008 and 2009 he headlined various Fringe events. Constantly refining his art, Ryan is definitely one comedian you should not miss. Quotes: "First on was Irishman Ryan McDonnell, a witty and incredibly brave comic, who brought up a number of taboo subjects and rode over them with ease...If you want some Apollo-quality live comedy, then brave the heat of the Cellar"Three Weeks (Edinburgh - AAA Stand-up Late 2010) "McDonnell"s candid and incisive brand of comedy will have you nodding in agreement while at the same time you"re trying to hold your sides in. And although you tell yourself you shouldn"t be enjoying his non-PC rib-ticklers, just like a car crash you"ll be unable to look away." The Irish Post "For a small nation Ireland doesn"t half generate a huge percentage of the world"s comedians. Ryan is the latest addition to the Craic Pack, another swift minded, silver tongued funster from the Emerald Isle. A man with the charm and comic timing of someone who"s tongued the Blarney Stone. Watch out for Ryan he"s certainly only going to get better, to be sure, to be sure" The Gag Factory, Guildford.

Hey News-Changers! For those just recently joining us, this is The Breakdown! You'll be hearing from me on Tuesdays and my colleague Anthony on Fridays with the latest headlines and news, along with the actions you can take to impact them -- hence, News-Changers!
Scroll down to hear about the fires raging in California, what TikTok is (or isn't?) doing about the Hong Kong protests, and how MrBeast is leading YouTubers to plant 20 million trees by 2020. (Spoiler alert: There's also some VERY good dog content down there.)
Let's Do This,
Jackie, DoSomething
As Fires Rage On, California Residents and Students Wonder If This Is the New Normal
For the past two years, fire season in California has brought some of the deadliest and most destructive blazes to the state. Now, multiple wildfires rage on, like the Kincade fire in Northern California and the Getty fire in the Los Angeles area, among others. These blazes have burned through over 94,000 acres of land so far, and residents are concerned that the worst is yet to come.
There are a few factors that contribute to the increasingly regular wildfires in California:
1) Climate Enables - Around this time, the state experiences very dry weather, and with little rainfall or humidity, the dry brush is primed to burn.
2) People Ignite - A lot of blazes have been ignited by faulty electrical equipment from Pacific Gas & Electric, California's largest utility service.
Some experts indicate that climate change and industrialization are impacting the size and frequency of fires not only in California, but around the world. The California Department of Forestry & Fire Protection agrees, citing climate change as a factor for fire season starting earlier and ending later each year.
About 180,000 people have evacuated impacted areas so far, including local college students. Students in the state are still recovering from the devastation of past fires, which left some homeless, dislocated, and traumatized.
Take Action: Share this young survivor's story and encourage friends to donate to the California Community Foundation's Wildfire Relief Fund.
After Months of Criticism, TikTok's Alleged Censorship of Hong Kong Protests Is Put to the Test
TikTok has been under a lot of scrutiny lately. Two lawmakers wrote a joint letter to the Director of National Intelligence calling for a security assessment of TikTok, and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently slammed the app for allegedly censoring posts about the Hong Kong pro-Democracy protests. The source of this distrust seems to be TikTok's ownership, a tech company based in Beijing called Bytedance.
Buzzfeed News tested this by posting about the Hong Kong protests on the app and reaching out to other users who did the same. After 11 weeks, the posts remained, though their engagement was relatively low. Their verdict? Maybe people on TikTok just aren't that interested ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
So TikTok may not be censoring these posts, but the Chinese government has been cracking down on mentions of the protests on other platforms -- from banning certain YouTubers to pressuring major companies like the NBA, Apple, and Blizzard to self-censor.
The Hong Kong protests started in opposition to a controversial extradition bill, but it's since evolved into a months-long movement for civil liberties in Hong Kong.
#TeamTrees: MrBeast Teams Up with Over 600 YouTubers to Plant 20 Million Trees by 2020
Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson is best known for his YouTube videos giving away huge sums of money (like the iconic, "Last YouTuber to Leave Wins $100,000"). As Donaldson approached 20 million subscribers, his fans rallied around an idea for his next big stunt: get MrBeast to plant 20 million trees. And...he's doing it!
And he has some help! Hundreds of YouTubers, including the Try Guys, Mark Rober, Smarter Every Day, and more, are joining in an initiative to plant 20 million trees by 2020. They're doing this primarily through donations to the Arbor Day Foundation -- $1 donated equals one tree planted. In just a few days, they've raised over $5.6 million through both small and large donations (some from prominent content creators like Ninja, Jeffree Star, and Lachlan).
Donaldson has acknowledged that #TeamTrees won't singlehandedly end climate change, but his hope is that it'll send a message that the platform (and the young people who support it) are serious about saving the earth and doing something about it.
Take Action: Help plant some trees! Donate to #TeamTrees if you can, and encourage others to. And check out these seven ways you can help the environment right now.

Our Story
Our Team
Contact Us
We believe that worship isn't about what you wear or sitting in pews and just listening to someone telling you what you ought to believe. We believe that worship should be interactive and meaningful. We believe that are all equal in the sight of God, so we worship in the round where we can see each other and everyone is at on the same level.
Worship begins around the table with a simple liturgy invoking God's presence through breathing, light, water, the table and the word.
We offer prayers for our needs and the needs of society and the world, concluding with the prayer Jesus taught his disciples. After prayers, we sing the Psalm of the Month, led by our Cantor.
Pastor Nathan then offers a short sermon on the scripture passage of the day, ending with a question. After a brief time of reflection, we finish the sermon together with an open discussion.
We then move to communion, where standing in a circle, and after the elements have been blessed, we serve each other. After communion, we take time to share our gifts with God in gratitude for God's gifts to us. First time attendees are asked not to give, but to take the money they would have donated and use it to do something good in world and return to tell us about it.
Worship ends with prayer and sharing God's peace with one another, followed by a time of fellowship, often at one of the local bars.

Acoustical Driving Forces (ADF), induced by propagating waves in a homogeneous and inhomogeneous lossy fluid (suspension), are determined and compared depending on the concentration of suspended particles. Using integral equations of the scattering theory, the single particle (inclusion) ADF was calculated as the integral of the flux of the momentum density tensor components over the heterogeneity surface. The possibility of negative ADF was indicated. Originally derived, the total ADF acting on inclusions only, stochastically distributed in ambient fluid, was determined as a function of its concentration. The formula for the relative increase in ADF, resulting from increased concentration was derived. Numerical ADF calculations are presented. In experiments the streaming velocities in a blood-mimicking starch suspension (2 μm radius) in water and Bracco BR14 contrast agent (SF6 gas capsules, 1 μm radius) were measured as the function of different inclusions concentration. The source of the streaming and ADF was a plane 2 mm diameter 20 MHz ultrasonic transducer. Velocity was estimated from the averaged Doppler spectrum obtained from originally developed pulsed Doppler flowmeter. Numerical calculations of the theoretically derived formula showed very good agreement with the experimental results.

Many therapeutic applications of pulsed focused ultrasound are based on heating of detected lesions which may be localized in tissues at different depths under the skin. In order to concentrate the acoustic energy inside tissues at desired depths a new approach using a planar multi-element annular array transducer with an electronically adjusted time-delay of excitation of its elements, was proposed. The 7-elements annular array transducer with 2.4 MHz center operating frequency and 20 mm outer diameter was produced. All its elements (central disc and 6 rings) had the same radiating area. The main purpose of this study was to investigate thermal fields induced in bovine liver in vitro by pulsed focused ultrasonic beams with various acoustic properties and electronically steered focal plane generated from the annular array transducer used. The measurements were performed for the radiating beams with the 20 mm focal depth. In order to maximize nonlinear effects introducing the important local temperature rise, the measurements have been performed in two-layer media comprising of a water layer, whose thickness was specific for the transducer used and equal to 13 mm, and the second layer of a bovine liver with a thickness of 20 mm. The thickness of the water layer was determined numerically as the axial distance where the amplitude of the second harmonics started to increase rapidly. The measurements of the temperature rise versus time were performed using a thermocouple placed inside the liver at the focus of the beam. The temperature rise induced in the bovine liver in vitro by beams with the average acoustic power of 1W, 2 W and 3 W and duty cycle of 1/5, 1/15 and 1/30, respectively, have been measured. For each beam used the exposure time needed for the local tissue heating to the temperature of 43°C (used in therapies based on ultrasonic enhancement of drug delivery or in therapies involving stimulation of immune system by enhancement of the heat shock proteins expression) and to the temperature of 56°C (used in HIFU therapies) was determined. Two sets of measurements were done for each beam considered. First, the thermocouple measurement of the temperature rise was done and next, the real-time monitoring of dynamics of growth of the necrosis area by using ultrasonic imaging technique, while the sample was exposed to the same acoustic beam. It was found that the necrosis area becomes visible in the ultrasonic image only for beams with the average acoustic power of 3 W, although after cutting the sample the thermo ablated area was visible with the naked eye even for the beams with lower acoustic power. The quantitative analysis of the obtained results allowed to determine the exposure time needed to get the necrosis area visible in the ultrasonic image.

Therapeutic and surgical applications of focused ultrasound require monitoring of local temperature rises induced inside tissues. From an economic and practical point of view ultrasonic imaging techniques seem to be the most suitable for the temperature control. This paper presents an implementation of the ultrasonic echoes displacement estimation technique for monitoring of local temperature rise in tissue during its heating by focused ultrasound The results of the estimation were compared to the temperature measured with thermocouple. The obtained results enable to evaluate the temperature fields induced in tissues by pulsed focused ultrasonic beams using non-invasive imaging ultrasound technique

Objectives: In the article we describe the new, high frequency, 20 MHz scanning/Doppler probe designed to measure the flow mediated dilation (FMD) and shear rate (SR) close to the radial artery wall. Methods: We compare two US scanning systems, standard vascular modality working below 12 MHz and high frequency 20 MHz system designed for FMD and SR measurements. Axial resolutions of both systems were compared by imaging of two closely spaced food plastic foils immersed in water and by measuring systolic/diastolic diameter changes in the radial artery. The sensitivities of Doppler modalities were also determined. The diagnostic potential of a high frequency system in measurements of FMD and SR was studied in vivo, in two groups of subjects, 12 healthy volunteers and 14 patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Results: Over three times better axial resolution was demonstrated for a high frequency system. Also, the sensitivity of the external single transducer 20 MHz pulse Doppler proved to be over 20 dB better (in terms of a signal-to-noise ratio) than the pulse Doppler incorporated into the linear array. Statistically significant differences in FMD and FMD/SR values for healthy volunteers and CAD patients were confirmed, p-values < 0:05. The areas under Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves for FMD and FMD/SR for the prediction CAD had the values of 0.99 and 0.97, respectively. Conclusions: These results justify the usefulness of the designed high-frequency scanning system to determine the FMD and SR in the radial artery as predictors of coronary arterial disease.

The use of therapeutic ultrasound continues to grow. A focused ultrasonic wave can increase the tissue temperature locally for the non-invasive cancer treatment or other medical applications. The authors have designed a seven-element annular array transducer operating at 2.4 MHz. Each element was excited by sine burst supplied by a linear amplifier and FPGA control circuits. The acoustic field, generated by a transducer was initially numerically simulated in a computer and next compared to water tank hydrophone measurements performed at 20, 40 and 60 mm focal depth. The results showed good agreement of the measurements with theory and the possibility to focus the ultrasound in the preselected area. The total acoustic power radiated by the annular array was equal to 2.4 W.
