According to such an approach, Users and Data Providers are not asked to implement any specific interoperability technology but to continue using their tools and publishing their resources according their standards -as much as possible.
In keeping with the Brokering Approach, EuroGEOSS has developed a Brokering framework (i.e. a set of Brokers) to bind the heterogeneous resources published by the Data Providers, adapting them to the tools commonly utilized by the Users.
EuroGEOSS developed a Broker for each main interoperability functionality, namely: Discovery Broker, Access Broker, Semantic Broker. Actually, the EuroGEOSS Broker is a Brokering framework (see the following Figure).
The EuroGEOSS Brokering framework can be accessed here: www.eurogeoss-broker.eu.
The EuroGEOSS Brokering framework is empowered by the GI-cat technology .

Verse 1:
Young Man thirteen running the streets Living his dreams of being Nino Brown Grandmother who pleaded the 5th Baby brother who needed him His little sister believed in him He needs to slow down
Then what happens next is something we see of a movie screen Then his days as a nigga came to an end Police found him in a pool of blood, clinging onto life That boy looked up and he said
Tell mama I'm sorry I was wrong (I was wrong yeah) Tell mommy I'm sorry I was wrong
Verse 2: (Anthony Hamilton)
Young girl Sixteen Running The same streets Living her dream of being Foxy Brown And her teacher who Tested her And an uncle who molested her Heavenly father who Still blessing her She just chose to play around Then The pain was just too much Then We are just living today and dieing tomorrow Said a prayer Then closed her eyes Nodded slowly Then said wait God before I go Tell mama
Tell mama I'm sorry I was wrong (I was wrong yeah! ) Tell mommy I'm sorry I was wrong
Somethings you can change Somethings you can't Somethings will never be the same Some people cry Some people fly Which one will you choose in your life? Mama you were right all along Mama I was wrong And another young lifes gone!

Recap of the conversation with Dr. Mithu Alur, Founder Chairperson, ADAPT (formerly The Spastics Society of India), which appeared in the month of November 2010.
It is kind of a recurring miracle, to see Dr. Mithu Alur, every time. I should remember that when I use the word 'miracle', it prepares me to compare her dauntless spirit of determination – which did not turn to desperation and self-pity as substitutes. So far as the actual facts and theory go, Mithu comes from a privileged, scholarly Bengali family of Kolkata: who was left completely traumatized by the realities a) that her first born child, Malini, was severely exposed to Cerebral Palsy. b) Malini would be a total vegetable and therefore, to devote time to her development would be quite futile. Now to simply describe, Cerebral Palsy, it is an umbrella term encompassing a group of non-progressive, non-contagious motor conditions that cause physical disability in human development, chiefly in the various areas of body movement.
44 years later, today Malini has 2 Masters Degrees from London to her credit. One in Gender Study and the other in Information Management. For what Malini is today, hugely the credit goes to Mithu-the-mother, whose voice captured an important role in human and social development of other children. ADAPT students and supporters gradually started conducting attention to the right meaning of including the disabled to be given the needed importance to them, which was absolutely lacking before Dr. Alur made up her mind to face her personal challenge in dealing with her own child with special needs. She remembers clearly meeting a Health Minister at that time, who hearing the term Spastics, quipped, "Are you talking about – Plastics?" Well, that's how ignorance reigned on matters regarding children with disabilities! Slowly and steadily, Dr. Alur has brought about effective public-private partnership in implementation of programmes to make disabled children able.
Today, Dr. Alur's centers in Colaba and Bandra focus on education for all students with or without disabilities. From a special school started with just 3 children in 1972 by her, she is in a position to provide today services to more than 3,000 children and 10,000 families annually. These include assessment, treatment, inclusive education, counseling, skills-training and job placements. ADAPT is now moving towards creating an inclusive village model in Maharashtra (India) under the aegis of the Mithu Alur Foundation.
Q 1. What has been the turning point of your life?
A. Earlier, I had no cause or focus in my life. The turning point in my life was when Malini was born. It was also a turning point in the life of my family members. I got to know about Malini's joys, sorrow, needs and her wants. I adapted my life to see what I could do best for Malini and for other Malini's in the country. It was then that I began my journey… from one child it involved a million children in the country.
Q 2. If you could go back in time, what would you want to do?
A. I would love to pursue something creative, like drama, arts, music, singing, playing tennis and would like to make films.
Q 3. What are your future dreams?
A. I have something in mind… to start a National Centre for Inclusive Arts, and Music. I have a project like that in mind and this will be for the normal person as well as disabled people. I hope to achieve this Dream.

Oh, no! Hold this class next summer, too! Please!
I was in the kitchen of Takakura High School of Economics Nagoya University on July 20. It was a cooking class of Aichi Summer Seminar, which is an annual event held by private schools in Aichi Prefecture. Aichi Summer Seminar is also known as "The Dream School" because anyone can become teachers and students freely. You can choose and take any classes basically for free from more than 3,000 classes. It was held at some schools near Nagoya City Museum in Mizuho-ku from July 19 to 21 this year. The places change every year, but I've joined the same cooking class for five years. I like the Bangladeshi chicken curry in the class!
It was a very hot day when I attended the class. But the kitchen was very comfortable because of the air-conditioner. There were 20 people in the room. The participants were separated into some groups, each of which had about half a dozen people. I used "cooking" above, but there are not so many things to do in the class. You fry onions. That's all. Oh, one more thing. You check the other teams' progress. The room was cool, but we soon became hot and started perspiring a lot. All the teams began frying onions…
Actually I've already introduced the recipe in my past article. (Aichi Summer Seminar 2011) But I tell you how to cook the Bangladeshi chicken curry again here:
Bangladesh Chicken Curry Recipe
Serves: 6
Ingredients: 750g chicken drumsticks
2 onions
1 1/2tbs ground ginger
1 1/2tbs ground garlic
6tbs salad oil
1 1/2tbs curry powder
1 1/2tbs salt
some water
1) Rinse the chicken, chop the onions, and grind the ginger and garlic.
2) Heat oil in a pan, fry the onions until brown.
3) Add the ground ginger and garlic, curry powder and salt.
4) Pour water, cover the pan, and cook it for about 30 minutes.
How easy! No.2 is the most important! You need to fry onions patiently! I was able to eat delicious curry and rice this year, too! Thanks! Teachers served Bangladeshi spiced tea and snacks. I had a really good time! But one of the teachers said to me, "We might not have this class any more…" What?! I really like this class! So, I asked her to have the class next year too. Summer will never arrive for me untill I take the class! Will I be able to greet the summer next year?

It's known that at the center of an electromagnet/solenoid the magnetic field $B$ is strongest there. At the pole/edge of the solenoid/ or electromagnet is the magnetic field $B$ strong? Let's assume $B$ = $1$ $Tesla$ at the center, how different is $B$ at the edges?
(source: gsu.edu)
In general, is it simple to create a $1$ $Tesla$ magnetic field or higher? MRI's use field's above $4$ $Tesla$ yet it seems very complex and requires massive power & cooling.

Brushing up on .NET architecture
One primary aim in relaunching SearchWindevelopment.com is to focus greater attention on .NET architecture. Web services, workflow, object-relational mapping and other concepts continue to change the way applications are assembled, and, just as you don't want to find yourself in the dark, neither do we.
Fortunately, SearchWindevelopment.com has a great sister site, TheServerSide.NET, that focuses on issues of importance to the .NET architect. And, as TheServerSide.NET undergoes its own transition to a community-driven discussion board, SearchWindevelopment.com benefits from an infusion of articles, tutorials and book excerpts that focus on the aforementioned architectural topics.
Here is a sampling of some of that content.
Assembly versioning in the .NET Framework 2.0 — Assembly-resolution mechanisms for the .NET Framework 2.0 provide a view into the CLR, focusing on versioning and safe execution of assemblies sitting side-by-side.
Ten ways to unit test your .NET code — Verifiable code is less likely to cause problems during development and after delivery; however, it can often be difficult to write an adequate unit test, due to the way your production code is architected. In this column, Justin Gehtland looks at ten ways to structure your code to make it easier to verify with NUnit, or any other xUnit framework.
Shifts in .NET Object-Relational Mapping: Seismic and subtle — For some developers, ADO.NET is good enough to deal with their data needs. For some other developers, Object-Relational Mapping software is needed to successfully field their enterprise systems.
Scrum, Agile development methodologies mix with VSTS projects — Agile and Scrum development methodology practitioners are no longer considered renegades. At the same time, Microsoft's Visual Studio Team System is beginning to support Scrum practices.
Book excerpt: Using the Microsoft Enterprise Library — This chapter from Effective Use of Microsoft Enterprise Library explains how to build apps using application blocks.
We hope that you find this content both useful and relevant. We also hope that you get used to it, as you will see many more articles, tutorials and book excerpts in the coming weeks.

- This is an NPC faction. For the rules for this particular faction, see Bundschuh ID.
|Federal Republic of Rheinland
|Date of founding
|Base of operations
|Bruchsal Base, Frankfurt
|Primary role
|Overthrowing the Rheinland government
|Secondary role
|Institute a fair social democratic state without corruption
The Bundschuh are a populist political faction that has been declared "enemy of the state" by the Rheinland Reichstag. Attempts to gain amnesty from Chancellor Steller after the Nomad War have failed, and while many are still faithful to their political goals and ideas, others have turned away from the Bundschuh to piracy and terrorism as a desperate attempt to cause damage to the government.
A populist left-wing Rheinland political party, they are currently outlawed and seek to overthrow the corrupt regime of the "Gottkanzler." Large amounts of the Rheinland population are sympathetic to the well-educated organization, and donations mean that the Bundschuh focus on political targets, rather than distasteful piracy. Recruiting members from mainstream society, as well as numerous pirate "organizations" the Bundschuh are a corps of ideologically motivated activists.
Political Affiliation
Democratic Socialists.
Democratic Socialists usually pivot towards the centre-left of the political spectra. Whilst they may be friendly to far-left elements, their objective is still ultimately an internationalised democracy with functional political discourse, a stable, able welfare state, and carefully regulated market economy.
The Bundschuh were founded, several decades before the actual revolution of 700AS that ended the 80-years war, by young visionaries in a basement of the first Mitte-Stadt University on Planet New Berlin. The well-read and well-educated citizens were well aware of the crimes of their government and could no longer tolerate the circumstances the people of Rheinland lived in. Their goal was nothing less than to change the society that made the rich richer and the poor even poorer - the society that dictated one's status as a rich and educated aristocrat or a poor and exploited worker from the moment of birth It is a common fact though, that the only thing intellectuals without influence do is discuss the atrocities rather than act to change them with valiant deeds. But over the decades, the Bundschuh turned out to become a disciplined and efficient socialist organization that gained more and more influence with propaganda that was passed under the hands of labourers. Financed by a large and sympathetic Berlin intelligentsia, the Bundschuh became a party operating in secrecy, preparing for the day when the people of Rheinland would finally rise. And their day came.
The Popular Revolution
On Von Rohe's day in 700AS, they initiated their opening salvo when raging workers, carrying weapons and ideology brought to them by the Bundschuh movement, revolted in Dresden. They could no longer maintain the war-machine that was fuelled with the labourers' blood - the blood of those who worked for more than 16 hours per day with no payment for months. A group of brave revolutionaries refused to keep the burned out economy going that backed up the useless efforts in Sigma 13. For 70 years the sons and daughters of Rheinland had fallen; on this day, the people said, "No more!" Throughout the revolution, the Bundschuh played a key part by coordinating all the actions needed to bring down the tyrannical imperial regime. Whether whipping people into a frenzy with nationalistic propaganda, or running guns and supplies to would-be revolutionaries, the Bundschuh performed many actions and grew greatly during this time. For five bloody years, the revolutionaries fought in what became known as "The Popular Revolution." Eventually, the emperor was overthrown, and a democratic people's coalition was established. What followed were 15 years of the people's coalition ruling Rheinland that consisted of the aristocratic, the conservative, the liberal democratic and the Bundschuh Party. This short period of time wasn't used to consolidate the people's coalition and to finally establish a strong and free republic, instead, those who fought for justice had to witness their young democracy becoming corrupted. While the Bundschuh initially pushed for a full investigation into the activities of companies such as Kruger Minerals and Daumann Heavy Construction, more pragmatic elements within the government decided that for the newly formed Rheinland Republic to succeed, it needed the support of the aristocrats who controlled those and other major companies. Both Kruger and Daumann were eventually required to pay substantial reparations intended to "improve the Rheinland Republic for the good of all people," and all Rheinland companies were forced to comply with a newly ratified Workers' Rights Convention.
By 715 AS business in Dresden had more or less resumed as usual. Once again outlawed, the Bundschuh were driven underground, an impractical brand of idealism ill-suited to building a consensus among the many different government factions and the aristocrats who controlled the purse strings. The Bundschuh took the ideological high route, attracting the purists dedicated to overthrowing the corrupt Rheinland regime represented by the government, Daumann, and Republican. The Red Hessians adapted the more pragmatic approach of stealing and plundering in the guise of fighting the powers that be. As a result, the ranks of the Red Hessians swelled, and the Bundschuh dwindled. Shortly after the Bundschuh got forced into the underground again, the Volksfront was founded. Tactics and organization from the revolution were revitalized, and Bruchsal Base, initially a supply depot from the gunrunning days of the Bundschuh, was hollowed out and became home. Previously, the Bundschuh had worked from within the system to reform it. As they failed every time, the party members realized that they had to fight for the people's rights by using force. Striking against political institutions and military installations with hit and run tactics, the party was supported by the old party members who had stayed loyal and supported the Bundschuh with vocal or financial support. But over time, they lost more and more influence with the common people of Rheinland, fed with opinions delivered by a censored and lying media. By the time of the Nomad War, the Bundschuh movement had been marginalized by a desensitization of the people. Planet-side operations had to be scaled-down as low sympathy levels made it difficult to coordinate operations. The Bundschuh operated in space more and more, and their idealistic membership included more former pirates than the students who had founded the party.
The Present
The Nomad War was a defining moment in the history of the Bundschuh. Playing a pivotal role in the defeat of the Nomads, the Bundschuh leveraged all of their remaining resources in a final public relations campaign. Showcasing both their role as "the people's protector" and of the government and military's rampant infection rate, a whole new generation was exposed to the Bundschuh. While many of the media that the Bundschuh used were quickly shut down, the people did not forget what they heard. Membership among the everyday people of Rheinland swelled, and credits raised revitalized a dwindling organization. The Bundschuh now face an era of national crisis, where an insane chancellor has imposed his own self-worship upon the people of Rheinland. Assaulted from all sides, the Bundschuh seek to rescue a floundering Rheinland.
The goals of the Bundschuh are simple, overthrow the government, institute a democracy, kick out the aristocrats, and bring equality to the average man. To bring these goals about, the Bundschuh are working on three fronts. First, they bombard the Rheinland people with much propaganda and information, hoping to win the popularity contest before the war has even begun. Secondly, surgical strikes against government offices weaken infrastructure and pave the way for larger actions. Thirdly, there is diplomacy. The Bundschuh attempt to keep strong ties with many unlawful and revolutionary groups in order to unite them to fight against a common cause. Were the Bundschuh to come to power, they would immediately impose basic democratic and economic freedoms that the average Rheinlander and nationalize large portions of the corporations that currently control Rheinland.

As dissidents seeking to turn the Rheinland government into upheaval, the natural enemies of the Bundschuh are the Rheinland Military and the Rheinland Police. Less well armed than some of their counterparts, most of the dirty work for dealing with the Bundschuh is handled by the Feds. The Bundschuh do not have any particular animosity for these forces, rather they regard them as the blind minions of a corrupt regime. The Marinenachrichtendienst however, is another matter. Responsible for the censoring of materials deemed "inflammatory" and rounding up those dissidents who are deemed "detrimental" to the people, the BDM will receive no mercy from the Bundschuh. Apart from planned raids, the Bundschuh will rarely resort to openly attacking the Military, as such actions are ineffectual for an organization their size. Large corporations such as Daumann and Kruger receive no love from the Bundschuh, but are rarely attacked, as doing so would only harm the every day workers who are indentured to the corporations.
Partners in crime for over a hundred years, the Bundschuh's closest allies are the Red Hessians. While the Hessians have developed into a less morally oriented pirate organization, the Bundschuh remain quite close to them. The Hessians often provide support in the form of munitions, while the Bundschuh will allow Hessians to base raids off of their outposts. The next closest organization to the Bundschuh are the Landwirtrechtbewegung. A true representation of the people in revolt, they are held in the highest esteem. However, the LWB are more focussed on Stuttgart and on attacking corporations, and thus their paths cross those of the Bundschuh rarely. Nevertheless, they are firm allies, and will commonly share information. The final group that the Bundschuh come into regular contact with are the Unioners. While supportive of their actions to "stick it" to Republican and the Gottkanzler, the Unioners have become a piracy-centric organization, and the Bundschuh eye them carefully. While there are tentative ties between the factions, it is the general consensus that they are too dangerous and too unreliable to work with.

A box of Dragon Well teabags came as a free gift thrown in with my last order of Ten Ren loose teas. Like before Ten Ren teabags hold up to being a lot better than one would expect for a teabag to the point of beating some cheap loose tea. The Dragon Well has a nice sweet medium green tea taste without any signs of bitterness or smoke. While I do not see myself paying money for this, it is good enough that I will probably drink it as a travel tea instead of giving it away.

Since posting this in 2016, while I feel much better from the outside in, my cholesterol levels budged only a little. After my miracle worker doctor finally convinced BCBS I was a great candidate for Repatha self-injections twice a month, I'm seeing nearly normal numbers for the first time in about two decades. Hereditary cholesterol issues are a bear to fight but the Repatha is working like magic. And no side effects for the girl who hates drugs due to the side effects. If you have lipid issues and have tried everything to fix them, you might consider asking about this. And by the way, nobody is paying me to say this. I wish they were.
Dang that's a good one. Not long ago, while chewing my first smoothie I knew something wasn't quite right. In a valiant attempt to regulate my cholesterol and triglycerides, I added a cartload of new foods to my diet. New, to me at least. Being southern born and fed, I enjoy eating all kinds of greens, like collards, turnips, and kale which lots of folks wouldn't touch for fifty bucks. Our family even grew them in our garden for a couple of decades. That was before new neighborhoods popped up, the deer became pretty much landlocked on our farm and began munching on our bounty and bushes.
Several months ago, on a nutritionist's suggestion, I took to drinking my kale. I've allotted lots of fridge space to fresh fruits and veggies through the years but it often involved cooking and serving them on a plate or in a bowl. Now…

I greatly enjoy the style of Jocelyn Hogan Wilson's wines. Well, so far – including those that are just released, there have only been three vintages of the Hogan Chenin Blanc, and two of the Divergent blend of cab, cinsaut and carignan. She promises two new wines with the 2018 vintage – but didn't offer any more detail than that and I wasn't pushing. But that will be that, she says, four wines is all she wants to make.
As to the style – well, it seems to me to lie very happily within the established new wave (fresh, with hands-off winemaking aiming to express origins and vintage), but with a firm, classic focus on balanced vinosity and drinkability, and not notably early-picked. To use some established lofty reference points, more Eben Sadie than Craig Hawkins. It was interesting earlier this week to taste them at an Ex Animo trade tasting in Cape Town alongside the admirable and equally care-driven offerings of John Seccombe's Thorne & Daughters. The latter are lower in alcohol, higher in apparent acidity – in that way a little more aggressively hipster and in line with the overt characteristics of the "natural" movement.
Incidentally, the Hogan wines are also significantly more expensive, but Jocelyn is clearly pleased with her original decision (which wasn't by any means easily made) to pitch her wines at a relatively high price level, and sales have gone well. The current Chenin should retail at about R320 (if retailers modestly add only 30% onto the trade price), and Divergent about R370.
Interestingly, the latest releases, from 2016, are perhaps more intense, and in that way more impressive, than the 2015s, without any loss of elegance. I say interestingly because there has been so much (justified) positive comment on the 2015 vintage that it threatened to prematurely overshadow the 2016s. This was especially true for dryland vineyards (notably the Swartland), not that Hogan wines are that – but in fact it's becoming clear that the 2016s are much better balanced than some winemakers feared (sadly, the corresponding truth is that some 2017s from warmer areas, a few months after harvest and having gone through malolactic fermentation, are not as pleasing as originally hoped – though obviously it's too soon to make generalisations).
The Hogan Chenin 2016 has, then, good fruit concentration, with some ripe tangerine-ish notes, and a lovely core of sweet fruit within the total dry affect. A good fresh natural acidity, and a most pleasing texture. Both delicate and confidently emphatic.
To my embarrassment, when I not long since organised a tasting of the burgeoning category of blends of cinsaut with Bordeaux varieties, I forgot about Hogan Divergent. Perhaps subliminally because most producers of such blends stress the older-Cape heritage, while Jocelyn refers explicitly to the inspiration of the late Lebanese winemaker Serge Hochar and his famous Chateau Musar. Not being an unequivocal fan of Musar, I rather prefer, as I've no doubt said before, the Hogan version of this blend: it's undoubtedly fresher, cleaner and more charming in youth, though whether it'll improve for many decades as some of the Musars do, is yet to be seen.
But in fact I did have something of a disagreement with Jocelyn over the approachability of her Divergent 2016. I find it still tight, and even a touch raw, and would certainly like to leave it a good few years before trying it with hope of complete pleasure – while she finds it (also) fully enjoyable now. That said, I much appreciated the wine. The aromas don't suggest cab, rather the floral, red-fruited, cherry notes of the other components. But the grandeur of cab's structure has more influence on the intensely full-fruited palate, with some serious tannic grip, along with carignan's freshness.
A fine homage (or challenge) to Musar.

The Far Rockaway Cough
(MY FOX NY) A bad cough is going around Far Rockaway, Queens. It is just one example of the post-storm health problems resident of hard-hit areas are exposed to in the aftermath.
Brett Scudder, a community activist, says he has come across many people who have a cough and migraine headaches.
Dr. Manny Alvarez of Fox News says migraines and respiratory problems could be signs of toxic exposure.
The city's Department of Health says recent testing shows outdoor air quality is good. But officials warn about indoor air quality.
Airborne toxins could come from mold in a flooded basement. We saw mold covering the walls of one basement. Health officials warn people to wear gloves and masks when cleaning out the debris.
Both my photographer and I started getting dizzy; we were down in the basement for just a few minutes.
Volunteers with Heart to Heart, a mobile medical unit in Far Rockaway, say respiratory illness has been the second biggest problem with people who have come in for help, right behind high blood pressure from stress.

In Udmurtia, a federal subject of Russia located the Volga Federal District, drug seizures, especially seizures of substituted cathinones are far from uncommon. According to the most recent poll, 6,000 or more drug addicts reside in Udmurtia and that number only counts addicts, not drug users. With the growing popularity of the darknet, many started ordering drugs from the darknet and distributing them both locally and redistributing them online.
Local law enforcement recently caught another drug smuggler of the above variety: the type that buys drugs for redistribution. Officers of the Russian Interior Ministry's Drug Control Service arrested the driver of a vehicle who, as police discovered after stopping his car, carried numerous packages of stimulants that he had purchased online.
They found 130 grams of a methcathinone derivative, along with a certain amount of amphetamine. Upon questioning the Renault driver, he explained his plans and intent. He also gave away two locations where he planned to distribute the drug to other distributors.
He purchased a significant quantity of methcathinone and other "synthetic" drugs from online drug stores, the authorities said. He purchased the drugs to repackage them and sell them through several different channels. When police stopped his vehicle, he was headed from Izhevsk, the capital city of the Udmurt Republic, to Sarapul, another city in the Udmurt Republic.
The 130 grams that officers found in his car was intended to be packaged and distributed to contacts in Sarapul. Authorities did not convey what the recipients in Sarapul planned to do with the packages, although the small quantity of methcathinone indicated that he sold only to drug users in Sarapul and used the location in Izhevsk for the shipping-related activities. In similar cases, the dealer often rented an apartment in a different city.
From the rented apartment, he or she sold "remotely" to buyers on the darknet. Usually on forums and personal vendor shops, but also on darknet marketplaces. Then, often in their hometown, the dealer returned and sold locally. As we are seeing in a fairly large series of busts, the dealers routinely operate with three or more accomplices. Some package the drugs and some run to and from drop points.
Drop points are frequent tactic in these situations, according to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the relevant location—in this case, the Republic of Udmurt. The dealer will have associates deliver the drugs to key locations and the buyer will pick the drugs up from a location defined by the seller. This activity also occurs with darknet sales.
Drug Control Service officers explained that, even in the suspect's hometown, darknet orders are filled—the dealer simply does not ship packages and only works with locals using dead drops. His or her associates run the packages to the location before the buyer arrives finishes the seller's end of the deal. The darknet buyers are unaware of the seller's identity, the police described. However, some deals take place over SMS and these are usually the more traditional style of drug dealing.
After the arrest, law enforcement started investigating the 28-year-old's operation in Sarapul. They temporarily detained the suspect until the investigation completes. He was charged with the illegal possession of narcotics for the purpose of further sale.

See more works by the artist
A question can not be overlooked in this series: what is Kryptonite? In the saga superman, the answer is in a strange and diversified mineral, which comes from Kripton, the superhero's planet and before which his powers disappear. Tempting metaphorical language, this explanation has its derivation in a psychoanalytic reading: it relocates the place from which we come in the mother and the loss of powers in castration. As well as the share of solar energy – essential for survival -, the supergene of the sample shares with the hero two fatalities: a homeland that rejects them and a suit as false as the emancipatory stories and the modern utopia: they are all naked and without a crown.
It is not surprising that the artist has chosen local stereotypes to adjust his historical – mediatic joke. We must revisit the taste for localisms, clichés and regional exoticism, to hold a discourse that remains within the limits of politically correct and rampant amorality. Each of the "portraits" – like Beatrix Kiddo, as a superman – exhibits its fatal sign, the one that, however much it crosses, will not separate them from their own Kriptonite: the obligation to a life that detests options. – Clara Astiasarán

Washington, D.C., December 4, 2012 … The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) expressed disappointment at the Senate's failure to ratify a landmark international treaty to secure equal rights for people with disabilities by a vote of 61-38.
A two thirds super majority of 67 votes is required to ratify treaties.
As part of its mission to fight discrimination, ADL has been active in urging the Senate to ratify the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) to ensure that people living with disabilities enjoy equal opportunity and full participation in communities across the world.
Barry Curtiss-Lusher, ADL National Chair and Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director issued the following statement:
The adoption of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) set an important standard against discrimination that is too rare in countries around the globe where people with disabilities are marginalized and denied basic protections. This treaty simply aims to take our own model standard to countries around the world to empower and protect people where they live.
We are profoundly disappointed that 38 Senators did not see fit to affirm America's commitment to be a global leader promoting the promise of equality and human dignity for all.
We are grateful to the Senators who championed the CRPD, including Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and John Kerry (D-MA). We applaud the incomparable leadership on this issue of former Senate Majority Leader Robert J. Dole, who, at age 89, still worked vigorously to marshal Senate support.
ADL has supported laws like the ADA, and fights for robust protection against discriminations and uses online education tools to raise awareness about the experiences of people with disabilities and the struggle for equal access and equal treatment.

Srta Extraviada/Young Missing Woman
In 2002, filmmaker Lourdes Portillo released her documentary Señorita Extraviada, or Young Missing Woman on the subject of the disappearances of hundreds of young women and girls, many of them workers in the NAFTA factories, who had been killed in and around Ciudad Juárez beginning in the early nineties. The film received critical acclaim. Yet some reviewers felt that while the film was effective in bringing much needed attention to the Mexican government's incompetence in addressing the rise in systematic femicide, it focused more on the subject of local corruption rather than an obvious socio-political context for understanding why as Juarez rose in prominence as an industrial center it also became an increasingly hostile place for working women's safety.

Blackberry Storm: Touch Without Haptics
Instead, the on-screen keyboard uses what RIM calls "tactile-touch" feedback that it claims offers "easy and precise touch screen typing." In fact, its a spring-loaded touchscreen that acts like a big button — a departure from the haptics-based touchscreen technology currently available to consumers.
Throughout the summer and into early fall, gadget blogs were abuzz about the new Blackberry that eschewed a keyboard but incorporated a touch screen that could best Apple's through tactile feedback. Tipsters and analysts mulled over the scarce data available about the new phone and deduced that it would use "haptic" technology: a series of little motorized bumps that let you know you just hit a key. After all, the Blackberry already had vibrating tech built-in, as does nearly every phone on the market that can be set to buzz instead of ring. Apple's phone slows you down because you don't feel the feedback in your hand, but this Blackberry would give you signals.
This seemed plausible to everyone — including Tom's Guide — because several handset manufacturers have already turned to haptic feedback to make touch keyboards more usable. Many of them use San Jose-based Immersion Corp.'s VibeTonz technology to get finer control of the vibration than just turning it on or off.
But everyone was wrong. After RIM officially launched the Blackberry Storm on October 8, the company began divulging more details about its new phone and correcting assumptions about the touch screen that everyone had been making for months (for more details on the pre-launch rumors, see page 6).
RIM didn't incorporate the common vibrotactile haptic feedback into its Storm — instead, the company revealed on October 9 that the whole screen clicks like a big button.
Why is RIM taking this different approach? Why did so many people assume RIM would use vibrotactile haptics? And why do you need mechanical feedback on a digital touch screen anyway?

Dulaglutide Added to Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors Improves Glycemic Control in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
February 23, 2018. This double-blind, parallel-arm, placebo-controlled, phase 3b study assessed the superiority of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist dulaglutide vs placebo when added to a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SLGT-2) inhibitor. Patients (N=424) with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2D) were randomized to receive dulaglutide 1.5 mg, dulaglutide 0.75 mg, or placebo, with or without metformin. At 24 weeks, patients receiving either dulaglutide dose had greater reductions in A1C vs placebo (dulaglutide 1.5 mg least squares mean [LSM]: -1.34%; dulaglutide 0.75 mg: -1.21%; placebo: -0.54%; P<0.0001 for both groups vs placebo). The LSM differences for dulaglutide 1.5 mg and 0.75 mg were -0.79% (95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.97 to -0.61) and -0.66% (95% CI: -0.84 to -0.49), respectively (P<0.0001 for both). Treatment-emergent adverse events in the dulaglutide group were consistent with the drug's established safety profile; for example, gastrointestinal adverse events were more frequent with dulaglutide vs placebo. These results indicate that dulaglutide added to SGLT-2 inhibitors significantly improves glycemic control in patients with T2D. You can read the abstract here.

Advanced electrochemical & photoelectrochemical engineering for CO2 utilisation
CO2 can be converted to useful fuels and chemicals by electrochemical and photoelctrochemical processes. As an effective strategy to address greenhouse effect and energy storage shortage, (photo)electrochemical reduction of CO2 still needs major improvements on its efficiency and reactivity. Reactor and process engineering as well as overall system design and integration play a significant role in achieving eco-attractive CO2 utilisation, but their importance has long been overlooked. This presentation will provide an overview on the recent progress on the electrochemical/ photoelectrochemical engineering and process for CO2 utilisation, and will introduce several CO2 utilisation routes under investigation by our research group: electrolysis + hydrogenation route; solid oxide co-electrolysis + Fischer−Tropsch synthesis route, direct formic acid electro-synthesis route, and photoelectrochemical route. The presentation will focus on how we use advanced microreactor/microfluidics, process intensification and system integration tools to optimise the CO2 utilisation performance and efficiency.

Doing it with style
Menu #1 - Just a flyout version of the previous horizontal menu #4.
The graphics have changed slightly but it is basically the same xhtml with flyout styling.
The styling has been very much simplified from previous flyout demonstrations, with the non-IE and IE style being combined into one style sheet.
This works in IE5.5, IE6, IE7 as well as Firefox, Opera etc. and does NOT use javascript.
Menu #2 - Back to the basic flyout menu.
This one uses no images and has identical width flyout sub-levels. The hover state changes the background color and the flyouts overlap the previous levels.
The colours have been chosen such that the hover background is identical to the flyout background to give a guide to where you are in the menu structure.
Because of all the time and effort spent in producing this demonstration I would ask that you respect my copyright.
This demonstration can be used subject to the following terms and conditions.
Your donations keep CSS PLAY running.

Embrace system compliance before it's too late
Having the right compliance policies, whether they cover Sarbanes-Oxley or Web-based e-mail, can keep an enterprise running smoothly -- and an administrator out of hot water.
Lax e-mail and document retention policies, unsecured servers and inadequate backup plans can land an administrator in the unemployment line, on the witness stand or even in jail. Avoiding such a fate means knowing the basics of compliance.
Christopher Byrne, of the Assurance and Compliance Practice at The Cayuga Group LLC, gave administrators several tips for staying ahead of the game during a breakout session on the first day of Admin2005, the Notes/Domino education and training event in Boston.
Obvious compliance issues stem from regulations like the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Basel Capital Accord (Basel II), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and privacy laws, which differ depending on which continent you do business on.
However, Byrne said, compliance also involves internal policies governing the use of instant messaging, Web mail and music files. If an employee is fired for spending too much time in personal e-mail, even though the "no Web-based e-mail" rule is rarely enforced, there could be trouble -- especially if the admins themselves break that rule. "In this current environment, your management will not tolerate it," Byrne told a group of about 50 admins from both public and private companies. "You may think you have great policies in place, but you don't."
The first step toward achieving compliance is risk assessment. "Risk assessment is a subjective process. There's nothing objective about it. It should always be the first thing done," Byrne said. "Risk can never be totally eliminated." He divides risks into threats (financial loss, blackmail, sabotage and disclosing confidential or embarrassing information) and vulnerabilities (compromised passwords, ill-defined policies and a lack of end-user training).
An internal system audit, involving every department within an enterprise, will identify threats and vulnerabilities, Byrne said. Create a user survey on topics like e-mail use, then use the results to build or amend your policies and save them in a Notes database. Even if management knows the risks are there but opts not to do anything about it, Byrne said that's better than not knowing the risks exist at all.
Byrne recommended http://www.auditnet.org as a good source for risk assessment process documents. AuditNet is a Web portal for auditors.
Another important step toward achieving compliance involves control frameworks, the best of which is COBIT (Control Objectives for Information and related Technology). More information on COBIT is available at http://www.itgi.org. "[COBIT] is the only standard generally accepted by auditors across the board," Byrne said. "It gives you a reference framework for management and users [as well as the] IS audit, control and security practitioners."
Byrne said there's no shortage of examples of what happens when control frameworks are missing -- payroll data ends up on the external Internet, the wrong people get access to Social Security numbers or steamy e-mail messages between adulterous colleagues go public and embarrass the entire company.

Tour Scotland with Jim Malcolm
Jim Malcolm's concerts are like a musical tour through Scotland's landscape and history, with humour his constant companion. Jim and I (I'm 'her indoors', Jim's wife Susie) thought it would be fun to hire a coach and, over ten days, take an audience-sized group on a real tour of Scotland, visiting ancient castles, beautiful islands, forlorn battlefields, medieval Edinburgh, a whisky distillery, Robert Burns country and several of our own special places off the beaten track, while in the evenings enjoying concerts from many of Scotland's finest musicians. Jim would keep us laughing all the way; I would make sure we had lovely hotels in which to stay.
We took the first of these occasional holidays in 2011, and the experience exceeded even our optimistic hopes. It was the best fun we've ever had! We have now added a second itinerary, taking us to the isles of Orkney and Skye. We are sold out for June 2018 but still have spaces on our Classic Tour from Aug 30th – Sept 9th, 2018. Please get in touch for more information by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.
Here's what some of our travellers have said about their time with us:
"Where to begin to express our thanks and appreciation for the once in a lifetime Scotland experience? This was the best trip I have ever been on. I've been asked over and over…..'what was the best part of the trip?'…a question that can't be answered with a few words…everything was the best part of the trip!" Jane from Rhode Island
"I cannot say enough about what this trip meant to me. To get to combine such a beautiful country and such beautiful music was a rare treasure that I will wear near my heart forever." Tracy from Columbus OH
"Our trip was a life-changing event for us. The trip exceeded all of our dreams and expectations." Bill Michelinie from Chestertown MD
"Susie and Jim, you are born to entertain and guide and teach and share. You both have a wonderful and easy sense of humor and genuine love of people. It was extraordinary! Thank you. Your sense of people is dead on." Patty, Chicago
Are you interested in joining us on our new itinerary to the Orkneys and Skye in June 2017 or on our Classic itinerary (it's too good to ever let go of the original trip) – or would you like more information to help you decide? If so, please send me an email – firstname.lastname@example.com – and I'll send you an itinerary. Jim and I hope to hear from you because there are lots and lots of things we want to show you!

Chinese Medicine & Herbs Treatment
Treatment Method for Internal Illnesses:Chinese Medicine is mainly used to healing the internal illnesses. Traditional type of Chinese Medicine is herbs, now some TCM Practitioners give patients powder which is easy to take and carry. However herbs is still better than powder in term of effects. To satisfy patients need, "CMC" provide two kinds of Chinese Medicine for patients choose.
Herbology. The practice of cocktailing an agglomeration of medicinal herbs and the fundamentals to many of the modalities applied in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Herbology mixing requires immense experience and knowledge, as such, a significant differential quality between a competent TCM practitioner and an amateur. Additionally, in TCM, there isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. The equilibrium and synergy of the herbs prescribed for different individuals are the greatly analysed and has attributed to the success of TCM today.
Chinese herbology amalgamate ingredients from all the different parts of a plant – leaves, stems, flowers, roots, and may also integrate ingredients from animals or minerals. A relief to us all, the uproar of controversies in the usage of endangered species' body parts in Chinese herbology has resulted in many herbal manufacturers discontinuing the use of animal parts from endangered animals
How does it work?
Each herbal medicine prescription blends one or two main herbs but generally, it is a concoction of an array of potent herbs which are customised to the individual patient. The concomitant herbs are added to adjust the formula to the patient's Ying Yang. At times, they are necessary to negate the toxicity or side-effects of the main herb(s) and sometimes acting as a catalyst to activate the effects of the brew.
Common Uses
- Common Cold and Flu
- Cough
- Palpitations
- Insomnia
- Stomach pain
- liver or kidney problem
- Male sexual dysfunction
- Female gynaecological diseases
- High blood pressure, diabetes, stroke
Categorising Chinese Herbs
There are 4 different methods to classify traditional Chinese herbs:
- The Four Natures (四气 or 四性)
- The Five Tastes (五味)
- The Meridians (归经)
The Four Natures
This method is in reference to the degree of yin and yang – ranging from cold (extreme yin), cool, neutral to warm and hot (extreme yang). The patient's body equilibrium of yin and yang is evaluated during herb selections. For example, medicinal herbs categorised as "hot", yang nature are chosen for patients who are suffering from an internal cold, or when one has a general cold constituency. As mentioned, an ingredient may sometimes be added to negative the extreme effect of the main herb.
The Five Tastes
The five tastes identified are pungent, sweet, sour, bitter and salty, respectively having their own unique functions and characteristics. For example, pungent herbs are ingested to promote perspiration and to direct and vitalize internal qi and blood. Sweet herbs aids in the unification of bodily systems. Meanwhile, some sweet-tasting herbs have a bland taste which helps to drain dampness through diuresis. The sour taste is acetic and used for centralising body functions while bitter herbs dissipate heat within the body, stimulating bowels and alleviate dampness by drying them out. Lastly, Salty-tasting herbs liquefy hard masses as well as stimulating and opening up the bowels.
The Meridians
The Meridians pertains to the localised effect of herb on specific organs. For example, menthol is pungent, cool and is linked with the lungs and the liver. Since the lungs is the organ which protects the body from invasion from cold and influenza, menthol can help purge coldness in the lungs and invade heat toxins caused by hot "wind"
Are Chinese herbs dangerous?
Herbs also can be harmful and toxic if misused as many herbs are contraindicated in certain conditions. This is why it is so important to approach an experienced TCM practitioner or herbalist for prescriptions to ensure safe effects of herbs blend to achieve your desired results.
Some herbs may be tainted with pesticides, chemicals, heavy metals, pharmaceuticals or pollutants. We are extremely careful and take extra caution to using only herbs that came from reputable sources which have been tested and certified to be pure and free of any contamination.
How are Chinese herbs used differently from other herbs?
Often than not, western herbs are ingested singly, such as valerian for insomnia, white willow bark for a headache, etc. The composition of the patient's body and root causes are not always considered. Comparably, TCM evaluates the nature and functions of herbs to balance the patient's body constitution while alleviating the disorder. Generally, Chinese herbs are used in a mixture to achieve maximum results and efficiency. They are rarely used singly.
Can Chinese herbs replace western drugs or conflict with them?
Chinese herbs are considered as a potent medicine, sometimes out-performing western drugs, and neutralising the possible negative side effects of drugs. It is extremely crucial that you inform us of any medications you are taking such that the prescribed herbs will not contradict with them.
Should I avoid taking Chinese herbs if I am on prescription medication?
You do not have to as TCM can operate well with certain medications. Western doctors may even refer patients to us in support of their treatments, such as in infertility, or relieve the side effects of allopathic treatments such as in chemotherapy. It is vital that all your healthcare practitioners are informed and have approved the combination of treatments.
Are Chinese herbs safe if I am pregnant or a nursing mother?
Yes, Chinese herbs are absolutely safe during pregnancy and for lactating mothers and can offer a solution to alleviating conditions when pharmaceutical drugs are contraindicated. However, you have to be aware that certain herbs are still not recommended during pregnancy. Make sure your practitioner has full knowledge of your condition to ensure the prescription of safe and effective herbs.
Are Chinese herbs appropriate for children?
Usually, TCM is preferred over pharmaceutical drugs as they are much safer and offer excellent results with minimal side effects. While children are prescribed with a reduced dosage, their quick metabolism responds more quickly than adults. There are also anti-viral herbs that effectively treat and prevent the common cold or flu that have no allopathic counterparts.
Are there times when I should not take certain herbs?
It is advisable not to take tonic herbs (Qi, blood, Yin or Yang building herbs) while stricken with a cold, flu or similar illness. It is also not recommended to take cold, bitter herbs over extended periods. All in all, the best strategy is to always consult with your TCM practitioner before starting on a Chinese herb prescription.
