Switching Circuits
|Page 2
The circuit is a simple rf-actuated switch which will respond to any strong field in the region of the pickup wire. The length of the wire will depend on how much coupling is needed, but a 250-mm length wrapped around the outside of the coaxial cable feeding the antenna should suffice for most power levels. If only one band is used, the wire... .When the digital logic level at the control input is low, the PIN diode is forward-biased by the CMOS gates. The two 1-KO bias resistors limit this current to the PIN diode"s safe forward current limit. In this state, the switch is on. When the control input is high, the diode is reverse-biased and the switch is ~ott. This switch is... .A basic circuit to trigger an SCR is shown in Fig. 67 -lA. This circuit has the disadvantage that the blocking voltage of the photon-coupler output device determines the circuit-blocking voltage, irrespective of higher main SCR capability. Adding capacitor Cl to the circuit, as shown in Fig. 67-lB, will reduce the dV!dt seen by the... .This circuit is effective for lamp and heater loads. Some circuits driving reactive loads require integral cycling and zero-voltage switching-when an identical number of positive and negative half cycles of voltage are applied to the load during a power period. The circuit, although not strictly a relay because of the three-terminal power... .Snubber circuit R2C2, as shown, might be necessary since Rl and Cl are tailored for optimized triggering and not for dV!dt protection. Fiber-optic pairs can be used with discrete SCRs to switch thousands of volts. A photon coupler with a transistor output will limit the trigger-pulse amplitude and rise time because of CTR and saturation... .Since standard CMOS logic operates down to 3-V supply voltages and is specified as low as 30 p.A maximum current sinking/sourcing capability, it is necessary to use a buffer transistor to provide the required current to the IRED if CMOS is to drive the optocoupler. As in the case of the low output TTL families, the H74A output can drive a... .Detection of line-current flow and indicating the flow to an electrically remote point is required in line status monitoring at a variety of points in theJelephone system and auxiliary systems. The line should be minimally unbalanced or loaded by the monitor circuit, and relatively high levels of 60-Hz induced voltages must be ignored. The... .Al and A2 are two sections of a quad comparator. The first, Al, functions as an amplifier and detector. Resistors R~and R6 set the gain at 100; the output of Al is an open collector to negative-peak-rectify the output with a decay time constant determined by R9 and C3. This de output is then compared with the reference level selected by RB. .TTL inverter 74LS14 has an internal 16-Kohm, pull-up resistor that pulls the gate input high when the switch is open. As you close the switch, the 4.7uF capacitor discharges on the first contact. If the switch contacts bounce open, the internal resistor limits the capacitor"s recharge to a rate sufficiently slow to prevent an undesired gate... .Using four diode in an array allows using only one MOSPOWER transistor for analog switching. The current flow is controlled by keeping the source-base connection of the MOSFET towards the load. Be sure to use diodes capable of handling the load current and a transistor whose breakdown voltage specification exceeds the peak analog voltage... .Each time the switch closes, the voltage on Cl causes inverter A to change state, with positive feedback from inverter B. Resistor Rl delays the charging and discharging of Cl, making the circuit virtually immune to contact bounce. The circuit works with either CMOS or TTL gates. The values of R1 and C1 are not critical and can be... .A single op amp-one of four contained in the popular LM324-is operating in a variable pulsewidth, free-running squarewave oscillator circuit, with its timed output driving two transistors that control the on/ off cycle of the tape-drive motor. The Dscillator" s positive feedback path holds the secret to the successful operation of the... .This circuit can cause a cassette recorder to automatically tum on and record when a sound or noise is present. Another use, is when the sound-activated switch is used to tum on a cassette player so that it operates as a burglar-alarm detector and sounder. Op amps Ula and Ulb are connected in tandem to amplify the sounds picked up by the... .

The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is measured. There are three main categories of distance measurement methods in use: a) By... .Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to find something potentially valuable, hidden a few centimeters below the soil. So many... .Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This circuit comes as a solution to this problem. Depending on humidity of the pot at... .The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the circuit of this metal detector, it is possible to detect a metal coin in depth of 90 to... .The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound, such as filtering or distortion. Instead, a frequency division system produces outputs... .In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope.

2018 Presidential Award
Posted on
The recipients of the Presidential Award for 2018 are Jahnavi Joshi, Anupama Prakash, and Krushnamegh Kunte, for their paper, "Evolutionary Assembly of Communities in Butterfly Mimicry Rings" in the April 2017 issue. The Presidential Award is chosen by the President of the American Society of Naturalists from all of the papers published in The American Naturalist during the preceding calendar year.
In this paper, the authors explore the evolutionary history and assembly of mutualistic Mullerian co-mimicry rings and Batesian parasitic rings in butterflies. Mimicry rings often have both components.
The authors test hypotheses about the origin of these different mimicry complexes, whether close relatives are Mullerian or Batesian mimics, or whether mimicry complexes are formed from evolutionarily disparate groups that have converged on the same morph. They also explore the role of island biogeography in the size and assembly of mimicry complexes. They found that Mullerian mimicry rings were typically comprised of close relatives that diversified in clades with shared aposematic signal. In contrast, Batesian mimics generally converged onto patterns of the model, though some Batesian mimics were from sister groups of aposematic species, and some were from different genera and families. While not surprising, mainland rings were larger, had more species, than island rings. Interestingly, of the five rings represented in both mainlands and islands, the ratio of aposematic species to Batesian mimics in mimicry rings was similar across regions. Moreover, the smaller size of island rings appeared to be driven by a smaller number of aposematic mimic species. In sum, this paper provided an original synthesis of the evolutionary origins and assembly of butterlfy mimicry rings, showed that different evolutionary processes build Mullerian co-mimicry and Batesian parasitic mimicry, and placed these patterns in a biogeographic context.

Tips for Planning
Your Prom: Prom Dresses, Prom Schedule, Hairstyle, and
Getting ready for your prom night? Here are some helpful tips to start planning for this special night now. Learn how to find the perfect prom dress and choose accessories to complement you...
prom dresses, prom gown, bridesmaid dresses, bridesmaid gowns, formal dresses, formal gowns
Make your prom night the enchanted evening you have dreamed of! Spend a little time beforehand to make sure everything is prepared for this special night. You will be much more relaxed and able to enjoy your prom night without anxiety.
One of the most important items for this special night is your dress. It is a good idea to shop early in order to find the dress you like and one you can afford. If you want a designer dress, you can start saving in advance so you'll be able to buy the one you want. You should spend the largest portion of your budget on your dress, so make a list of everything you need to go with it. Then you can adjust your budget to include everything.
Choosing Prom Dresses
Prom dresses are found in all different colors, styles and price ranges. Look for an exclusive dress that will make you stand out from everyone else. You can find different shoulder styles, long or short lengths, unique bodice and skirt styles. Look through magazines and decide which prom dresses you might like. Be sure to choose one that is flattering to your figure and coloring.
You will also want accessories that complement formal dresses. Choose jewelry, shoes and purses that look stylish with your dress. This is also true when choosing pieces to go with bridesmaid dresses, or other formal gowns. Jewelry can be worn according to your personal taste and the style of your gown. Rhinestones are always attractive and classy. Wear a necklace that goes with the neckline of your dress and earrings that complement your hairstyle.
If you choose to carry a clutch purse, then you'll have one hand occupied the whole time. So consider an elegant purse with a handle, or check it at the door. You need one large enough to carry your essentials, such as lip gloss, money, tickets, breath mints, cell phone and ID.
Completing Your Outfit
When you have found the perfect dress and shoes, you need to try everything on together beforehand. Be sure to take care of any alterations that are needed in plenty of time. Experiment with jewelry and hairstyles to find the look you want. This is a good idea for planning a wedding too. Have your bridesmaids try on their bridesmaid gowns to coordinate their accessories.
If you want to look stunning in your new prom dress then choose a different hairstyle than you usually wear. This will be sure to make you stand out. If you usually wear it down, then try wearing it up. If you wear your hair pulled up most of the time, let it down in a smooth style or with bouncy curls.
Be Ready Ahead of Time
Don't forget the little things that need to be done ahead of time. Be sure to order a boutonnière for your date a couple of weeks before the prom. Decide on nail and lip colors and try them out the week before. Make hair or manicuring appointments in advance to avoid disappointment.
Shopping for prom dresses is part of the magic of this special event. By searching diligently, you will be able to find the dress that will make your dreams come true.

Looking attractive and sexy on the first date or on the school prom night is an indispensable part of every teenage life! So being a teenager teen hairstyles shall just help you rediscover the beauty and confidence in yourself and in your looks! If you belong to the highly fashion and image conscious teen brigade of the 21st century then you must have quite a bit of knowledge about all kinds of latest and hot teen hairstyles. Being a girl/boy in the teens you've got to deal with all kinds of situations where you become terrifically conscious about how you look, what you wear and how you carry yourself amongst your friends.
The way you wear your hair can remarkably change the way you look. Proper styling can add the right angles to your face or can even tone down some of the hardness that your face might otherwise convey. For teenagers hairstyles are as important as for someone older. In fact it is during your teens when you start interacting with the outside world, make friends and acquaintances, start going out on dates, and some of you even start your career. Teen hairstyles that suit their facial settings thereby accentuating their personality are what all teenagers look for.
There are dozens of myriad teen hairstyles. You can choose from short, long and medium hairstyles or from formal, curly, straight and black hairstyles. You also have the option copy the hairstyle of your favorite celebrity/star.
But before deciding on what kind of hairstyle you want to go in for you must pre-consider a few things. The first thing, while choosing a hairstyle that you must look into is the particular hairstyle should be compatible with the kind of life you lead. If it involves a lot of outdoor activities as in sports, it's better you wear your hair short as you will be taking showers pretty often and it is a lot easier to manage shorter hair than to care for longer hair.
The next deciding factor while selecting through numerous teen hairstyles is the type of face you have. Properly styled hair complementing your face cut can work wonders for your face. A good and professional hairdresser can highlight the essential features while you decide on a particular hairstyle emphasizing on how the hairstyle will make your face attractive. Sporting the right kind of hairstyle also shifts the emphasis away from those odd/ so-called ugly facial features that don't really add to your looks.
If we have to classify faces according to its shape then there are three kinds of faces – round, long and square and teen hairstyles vary according to these face cuts. If your face is round then don't go for long, straight hair. Instead it's better if you opt for a shoulder length hair without any parting. This would make your face look longer. Again if your face is longer it gives an impression of hardness. The obvious choice would be to go for a soft hairstyle that would make you look more gentle. It is better to avoid parting and wearing a straight shoulder-length hair. Sporting shorter hair should work for longer faces. A square face also makes you look hard and cold! So opt for teen hairstyles that have an effect of softening your facial outline. Shoulder length hair that can be straight or flicking towards the end suits teenagers with a square face quite well.
The Generation-Y teenagers of today are extremely busy souls who are engaged in multifarious jobs and activities. Time is very precious for them and so you being a modern day teenager would not like to spend unnecessary time on managing unmanageable and elaborate teen hairstyles! So you can go in for the less elaborate low-tech hairstyles that are easy to manage.
The most preferred teen hairstyles that teenagers love to sport more often include short, spiked hair with the top bleached, the 'grunge look' or more tailored hair cuts in case of teenage males while long and layered tresses are a top draw among teenage girls!
Go in for teen hairstyles that reflect your personality. It should be borne in mind that any hairstyle does throw some light on the character of the individual. So if you are looking for a feminine, elegant yet sexy look then it's better to go for long hair. If you are looking to reveal your sporty and care-a-damn attitude then you can wear a short and cropped hair.
Teen Hair Style
Teen hairstyles are all about fun, fashion and being funky. This article gives some guidelines on how to experiment with teen hairstyles, without ruining the health of your hair.
teen hairstyles, hair styles, hair care, hairstyle
There is perhaps never a better time when you can pull off the very trendy and funky hair styles as when you are a teenager. The teen hair style, while always evolving and reflecting the tastes of the generation, always tends to be a trendy hair style that is hard for older people to imitate and still look great. From a ton of texture to funky and fresh color techniques, the teen hair style is always at the cutting edge of fashion.
The funky teen hair style always looks like it has been taken straight off the runway. Infused with rich, trendy color, the teen hair style does a lot to capture an era of style completely. Just think about all of the famous teen hair styles, of the past. Complete generations have been defined by the trendy hair styles worn by the teenagers of that time.
Today, top teen hair styles are trendier than ever and cover a wide range of styles, lengths and textures. Perhaps for the first time, the teen hair style is a reflection of the person within instead of the popular teen hair styles without. I mean just think of how many popular teen hair styles there are to choose from. We are no longer like the cookie-cutter generations that came before.
While there are a great deal of teen hair styles to choose from and numerous variations of each, it can be hard to find the perfect teen hair style to reflect your personality and tastes. So, here are a few ideas for your next teen hair style.
The short teen hair style
The teen hair style has never been shorter. In fact, many teenage girls are now wearing their hair shorter than the boys. But one thing is always sure; the short teen hair style is always a trendy hair style. Full of texture and interest, the short teen hair style is never dull.
Probably the most popular short teen hair style of today is a variation on the pixie cut. Only about 1" to 1 ½" in length throughout, this teen hair style is heavily textured and can be worn in several different ways. From rigid spikes and soft funk to close-to-the-head tresses, this teen hair style accommodates a wide range of tastes.
The textured teen hair style
No matter what length your locks are, texture is needed to pull off a trendy hair style. This texture can be created through cutting and razoring techniques, it can be natural as in the case of natural curl, and it can be created chemically through perms and relaxers or thermal styling tools.
As mentioned before, today's teen hair style is never boring. Not only does texture liven up your teen hair style, it can also take a popular style and make it uniquely your own. Take for instance a simple layered teen hair style. Falling about shoulder length, this teen hair style would be dull if left to hang straight. But if you take the same cut and add pomade to texturize the ends or add spiral curl to this teen hair style with tube rollers, you could really have a different teen hair style each and every day.
The teen hair style and color
Every trendy hair style needs color, and the same is true for the teen hair style. Adding color can be as simple as a few highlights or lowlights or it can come in the form of dramatic changes such as dark colors for the Gothic look. Color for the teen hair style can also be a statement of itself. Just look at the colors worn by Pink and Christina Aguilera. Their most popular teen hair style cuts were not really anything that unique, it was their color that set their teen hair style apart from others.
When choosing color for your teen hair style do not be afraid to try something funky and unique. This may be the only time in your life that you can get by with blue highlights. Also, do not become wrapped up in choosing the same color for your teen hair style that you have seen worn by other people. Stay unique, venture out, be brave and you will always have a teen hair style worthy of envy.

The Deal: Latest rebirth of Cajun. It's the real deal. Caution: Contains accordion solos that can change the world.
The Good: So many superlatives here – new arrangements, rhythmical grooves, spooky ballads, strikingly new sounds, yet still respectful of Francophone culture. From the glorious opening din of "Prends Courage" through raucous Cajun two-steps, the ghost of D.L. Menard lives. Incorporating scintillating syncopation, stylistic advances and unconventional arrangements, this young band of six playfully experiments with various elements and pulls it off. Veering from tradition with backwards vocals, mellotrons and horn arrangements, this 20-something band closes in on Louisiana standards with a new take, new arrangements and a new look. These folks conjure up the sounds of the legendary Louisiana Aces and Steve Riley, adding new twists and turns yet remaining faithful to the music's integrity, drive and traditional themes. Vibrant, subtle, bouncy and lively as a flying mallet, this CD is one helluva pleasant surprise. Good production, too. It's gratifying that Lafayette, Louisiana is producing wonderful homegrown talents such as these.
The Bad: Only that the music finally ends. A nouveau, retro breakthrough.
The Verdict: If you like energetic accordions, fiddles, nasally vocals (dude sounds like Joe Henry), rollicking dance tunes, waltzes and musical experimentation, tune in. These archival kinds of guys – and one female – step up to the mike and deliver.

Because of its flexibility, this barrel liner can be used with a wide variety of container shapes and sizes to collect rainwater in the space you have available.
It can be cut to the appropriate length to fit shorter barrels, or even be used as a water-garden barrel liner.
Designed to fit a standard 55 gallon/208 litre industrial drum (to prevent environmental contamination), this 10 mil, flat-bottom heavy-duty polyethylene bag can be used to line any non-water-tight container, such as an oak barrel.
Each liner measures 55" long by 23-1/2" in diameter. Water can be drawn directly from the barrel or with a siphon.
An excellent alternative to expensive water barrels.

The pineapple slicer was really great. My dad cuts up pineapple all the time and my mom gives him a hard time because it never looks easy. He's tried different methods, and they work, but he's always been curious about pineapple slicers. So I let him use it first - and he liked it. He got the pineapple cut in about half the time it normally takes. The only downside the first time was the bottom layer got a little mushed because he was pushing down harder than he needed to. Once he got the hang of it, it was great! I used it too, and found it much easier and more efficient than any other way.
I also got to try out this silicone basting brush. Our previous brush met an untimely demise (although it was pretty old and the bristles were getting worn and harder to clean). I liked the bristles better than I thought I would. The silicone bristles are wider than my previous one, so I was worried about coverage - but it worked just fine, and I like that it's dishwasher-safe!

Floating Action Button tutorial
Final result (full video tutorial at the end)
Full KLWP preset with the final result can be downloaded in this XDA thread
Step 1: create the FAB button that will trigger the animation
- Start from an empty preset
- Create a global that will be used to trigger the animations (Globals -> Add -> Type Switch), this global will be used to control animations around
- Add the Image for the FAB, change its name to better see it in the list
- Load an Image that you like, here i am using a generic "plus" button
- Set single Touch action to "Global Switch" and pick the global we just defined ("FAB"), so when touching this image that global will be toggled on/off
- Go to animations and add a new one, select "ReachOn -> Global Switch" so it will be triggered by the global switch, set speed to 5 to make it faster (5 is 50ms), set type to Rotate and amount to "63" so it will not rotate completely and stop a bit earlier looking like an "X" instead of a "+" (you can test the animation pressing the "play" button on top)
- To make it a bit fancier add another animation triggered by the same global, set speed to 5 as above and select "Color Filter Out", this will desaturate the image on click, making it black and white when opened
- Your button is done! Save, go back to screen and see it in action. Cool eh?
Step 2: create app button
- Add another Image object, change its name to "Facebook" or whatever you want
- Add a Switch animation of type Scroll so the Image will move when switch triggers, set speed at 5 as above, and play with "speed" and the "play" button on top right until you reach the desired result, set also the "angle" param if you want to change scroll direction and mode to "overshoot" if you want to bounce when opening
- Add another Switch animation of type "Fade In" so the item will fade in when switch changes (and while fades), the item will disappear because its initial state will be invisible, if you click the play button you will see it become visible
- Go back to the root and check with the global switch (changing it) if the animation is ok, if its ok change the position of the Facebook button and place it on top of the list so it will go below the FAB (so it will look like it appears from the back)
- Done! Save and test it on screen
Step 3: create additional buttons
- Copy the facebook button using copy / paste
- Change the name and the image (in this case we use Youtube)
- Go to animations and change the scroll "speed" parameter to make it go farther, test it with play (you will just see an empty red rect because the item is transparent but it will be enough to tune speed
- Save, done!

An agricultural cooperative, also known as a farmers' co-op, is a cooperative where farmers pool their resources in certain areas of activity.
A broad typology of agricultural cooperatives distinguishes between agricultural service cooperatives, which provide various services to their individually farming members, and agricultural production cooperatives, where production resources (land, machinery) are pooled and members farm jointly.[1] Agricultural production cooperatives are relatively rare in the world, and known examples are limited to collective farms in former socialist countries and the kibbutzim in Israel. Worker cooperatives provide an example of production cooperatives outside agriculture.
The default meaning of agricultural cooperative in English is usually an agricultural service cooperative, which is the numerically dominant form in the world. There are two primary types of agricultural service cooperatives, supply cooperative and marketing cooperative. Supply cooperatives supply their members with inputs for agricultural production, including seeds, fertilizers, fuel, and machinery services. Marketing cooperatives are established by farmers to undertake transformation, packaging, distribution, and marketing of farm products (both crop and livestock). Farmers also widely rely on credit cooperatives as a source of financing for both working capital and investments.
Why farmers form cooperativesEdit
Cooperatives as a form of business organization are distinct from the more common investor-owned firms (IOFs).[1][2] Both are organized as corporations, but IOFs pursue profit maximization objectives, whereas cooperatives strive to maximize the benefits they generate for their members (which usually involves zero-profit operation). Agricultural cooperatives are therefore created in situations where farmers cannot obtain essential services from IOFs (because the provision of these services is judged to be unprofitable by the IOFs), or when IOFs provide the services at disadvantageous terms to the farmers (i.e., the services are available, but the profit-motivated prices are too high for the farmers). The former situations are characterized in economic theory as market failure or missing services motive. The latter drive the creation of cooperatives as a competitive yardstick or as a means of allowing farmers to build countervailing market power to oppose the IOFs.[1] The concept of competitive yardstick implies that farmers, faced with unsatisfactory performance by IOFs, may form a cooperative firm whose purpose is to force the IOFs, through competition, to improve their service to farmers.[2]
A practical motivation for the creation of agricultural cooperatives is sometimes described as "overcoming the curse of smallness". A cooperative, being an association of a large number of small farmers, acts as a large business entity in the market, reaping the significant advantages of economies of scale that are not available to its members individually. Three typical examples are a machinery pool, a marketing cooperative, and a credit union. A family farm may be too small to justify the purchase of a tractor or another piece of farm machinery for its own use; a machinery pool is a cooperative that purchases the necessary equipment for the joint use of all its members as needed. A small farm does not always have the means of transportation necessary for delivering its produce to the market, or else the small volume of its production may put it in an unfavorable negotiating position with respect to intermediaries and wholesalers; a cooperative will act as an integrator, collecting the output of its small members and delivering it in large aggregated quantities downstream through the marketing channels. A small farmer may be charged relatively high interest rates by commercial banks, which are mindful of high transaction costs on small loans, or may be refused credit altogether due to lack of collateral; a farmers' credit union will be able to raise loan funds at advantageous rates from commercial banks because of its large associative size and will then distribute loans to its members on the strength of mutual or peer-pressure guarantees for repayment.
Supply cooperativesEdit
Agricultural supply cooperatives are cooperatives that supply farmers with required inputs for agricultural production including seeds, fertilizers, fuel, and services. Template:Expand-section
Marketing cooperativesEdit
Agricultural marketing cooperatives are cooperative businesses owned by farmers, to undertake transformation, packaging, distribution, and marketing of farm products (both crop and livestock.)
In Canada, the most important cooperatives of this kind were the wheat pools. These farmer-owned cooperatives bought and transported grain throughout Western Canada. They replaced the earlier privately and often foreign-owned grain buyers and came to dominate the market in the post-war period. By the 1990s, most had demutualized (privatized), and several mergers occurred. Now all the former wheat pools are part of the Viterra corporation.
Former wheat pools include:
United StatesEdit
- American Legend Cooperative (mink fur) "Blackglama" brand
- Blue Diamond Growers (almonds)
- Cabot Creamery (dairy)
- Cotton Incorporated (cotton)
- Diamond of California (nuts), formerly a cooperative
- Dairylea Cooperative Inc. (Dairy), formerly Dairymen's League
- Florida's Natural Growers (citrus fruit)
- Gay Lea Foods Co-operative Limited (dairy)
- Land O'Lakes (dairy and farm supply)
- Ocean Spray (cranberries and citrus fruit)
- Riceland Foods (rice, soybeans, and wheat)
- Sunkist Growers, Incorporated (citrus fruit)
- Sun-Maid (raisins)
- Sunsweet Growers Incorporated (dried fruit, especially prunes)
- Tillamook County Creamery Association (dairy)
- Lone Star Milk Producers (dairy)
Origins Edit
The first agricultural cooperatives were created in Europe in the second half of the nineteenth century. They spread later to North America and the other continents. They have become one of the tools of agricultural development in emerging countries. Farmers also cooperated to form mutual farm insurance societies
Also related are rural credit unions. They were created in the same periods, with the initial purpose of offering farm loans. Some became universal banks such as Crédit Agricole or Rabobank.

Icelandic volcano imposes travel risks after possible eruption
In 2011, the Grimsvotn, one of Iceland's most active sub-glacier volcanoes, erupted, clogging airspace and causing all air travel to shut down from Iceland as smoke caused flight issues in the nation. In 2010, a large cloud of smoke from the Eyjafjoell volcano in Iceland shot debris six miles into the air, which floated across the sea and into parts of northern Europe. While both incidents were massive and caused serious problems for millions of travelers, Iceland is once again warning people of another volcanic threat, Traveller 24 reported.
"We meet twice a day, but the earthquake activity still comes in waves," Vidir Reynisson, the department manager for the Civil Protection Department, told a local the reporter. "There do not seem to be any changes, but it is still very powerful."
Evacuations made north of volcano
There are at least three airlines closely watching the volcano, with Air France, Deutsche Lufthansa AG and Delta Air Lines Inc. all running commercial routes in the path of the volcano, Bloomberg reported. On Aug. 19, the Civil Protection Agency of Iceland evacuated citizens to the north of the volcano as part of their disaster management plan.
"There is still no sign of this intrusion being on its way to the surface," Martin Hensch, a seismologist for the Icelandic Met Office, told Bloomberg. "It's still impossible to say whether or not the volcano will erupt, due to the simple fact that we can't predict what the developments in the next hours or days will be."
Many remember eruption just 4 years ago
The eruption in Eyjafjallajokull in 2010 caused at least 100,000 flight cancelations and roughly $1.7 billion was lost in total revenue from the incident, Bloomberg noted.
Researchers are now looking into the threat of one of Iceland's largest volcanoes erupting. Bryndis Brandsdottir, a geophysicist working for the University of Iceland, explained to a local reporter the seismic readings showed the volcano's magma wasn't close to the surface, but was still roughly 3 to 7 kilometers underneath, Traveller 24 reported.
For businesses sending travelers to northern Europe or Iceland, executives have a duty of care obligation to protect their workers from entering a harmful or possibly dangerous area. Having the appropriate travel alerts sent to workers overseas could prevent corporate travelers from entering unsafe regions while abroad.
Icelandic researchers explained the nation's largest volcano, the Bardarbunga, could erupt, and it if did it would cause flight disruption through the transatlantic and into northern Europe, the source cited. Additionally, the volcano would likely cause floods from melting ice, which would tear apart Iceland's infrastructure.

Internet could be called as the most notable intervention of modern age because it is catalyzing the pace of socio-economic development at a fast rate. Everyone is happy; including those who are engaged in lively hangouts for hours with their social peers and those who are grabbing products and services online through their credit and debit cards! And how about the new contenders who have begun tasting the web recently and are buoyant to check everything in the least of time? Propulsions are ruling and the craze of the internet has become ubiquitous. No denying this fact! But who is concerned? Some intelligent minds have come up with their theory with facts and they claim that internet addiction is also linked with mental health problems! They have counted stress, anxiety and associated symptoms that are being experienced by people at an increasing rate.
What so typical with the internet usage that it makes the mind so entangled and driven by anxiety? Biochemistries are getting affected for the bad while we are surfing. The problem lies in what we are looking for in the domains of the web! Getting too much socially immersive on the web has been found to generate confinements. Strange this may appear but this has been found as one of the prime reasons for the development of mental disorders. Let's find out as how we can curb our internet addictions and avoid the development of mental fatigue and disorders. Here are the five authentic ways to make the resurrections. Have a look –
Schedule your internet timings and follow it strictly!
The fact that internet is also liked with mental health problems needs to be taken seriously! If you have also become an addict then it is wise to act now and the first step to it is to limit your internet usage time; rather schedule it. If you cannot come down with your habit of internet abruptly then at least reduce it and fix a timeline for the same.
Get neutral to some category of messages and emails!
It is important to understand that not every message and mail that pops up through the web is necessary to be responded! Part of addiction is also fueled by the desire to respond to every mail and message. Therefore learn to avoid.
Pull down futile notifications
Detach from unnecessary notifications including from the commerce vendors to whom you have subscribed newsletters and promotions. This further helps you develop personal time away from the internet.
Go for a free walk outside
Include the component of a free walk outside some part of the day. Going out for a task is common but sort of compulsive. But without a task, it could be really soothing for your body and mind! So take a break!
Develop the general thought that internet is not the whole world!
It is true that internet is fast eclipsing the functions of social economy. However, the internet is yet not equal to the whole of the world. Try to remain connected with the outside world through direct contact rather than electronically and online.
These five techniques will help you to bring down your internet addiction for sure and you will feel the buoyancy within!

A broad swathe of economists and corporate executives are criticizing the mounting trade spat between the U.S. and China, with many American business leaders fearing damaging retaliation for the tariffs President Donald Trump has been unveiling since March.
To date, both countries have announced hundreds of billions of dollars worth of import tariffs on each other's goods.
But while the larger part of market experts seem to agree a trade war would be generally bad for the whole world, there are some countries that could indeed benefit from Chinese tariffs on U.S. goods, as it creates potential room for other trade partners to expand their own exports.
"There are definitely economies that can benefit from the trade tariffs," said Jim Barrineau, head of emerging market debt relative at Schroders. If the dispute becomes a longer lasting trade war, Barrineau said, "China could step up direct investments into agriculture, metals, and energy producers throughout emerging economies to diversify sources of goods away from the U.S."

Hummingbirds, those delicate, tiny, hovering birds, are fascinating to watch and add variety to the landscape. Hummingbirds are attracted to colorful, trumpet-shaped blossoms with a high nectar content. Fragrance is not important as hummingbirds, like most birds, have no sense of smell. Plant a variety of flowers and shrubs to attract hummingbirds, and avoid spraying pesticides in your garden as they will kill the insects on which hummingbirds feed.
Butterfly Bush
Butterfly bush, formally Buddleia, is the name of a genus of more than 100 flowering plants. Most are shrub-like with slender, brush-like blossoms that emerge in early summer and last through fall. These plants are favorites of butterflies and hummingbirds due to their high nectar content and brightly-colored blossoms. Butterfly bushes thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, and can grow up to 10 feet tall. They are best suited for gardens in USDA growing zones five through nine.
Trumpet Vine
Trumpet vine, formally Campsis radicans, is also sometimes called hummingbird vine. It's easy to see why. This fast-growing vine produces lily-shaped blossoms in an array of bright orange, red and pink--hummingbird's favorite colors. This plant thrives in full sun in USDA growing zones four through ten. Trumpet vine can reach up 24 feet in length. In some regions, this plant can be invasive and quickly smother companion plants.
Hollyhock, formally Alcea, is a genus of around 60 species that are native to central Asia. These plants have adapted well to North America and can be found in many country gardens. Hollyhocks are short-lived perennials or bi-annuals and grow to be around 5 feet tall. Hummingbirds love their brightly-colored, tulip-shaped blossoms that emerge in the mid-summer all along the stalk. These plants thrive in full sun in USDA growing zones two through ten, and are best grown from seed.
Rose of Sharon
The rose of Sharon, formally Hibiscus syriacus, is a deciduous shrub popular in the United States. The plant, native to east Asia, produces cup-shaped blossoms in pink, purple, red or white in mid-summer. A rose of Sharon can grow to be 8 to 10 feet tall and will thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. Although the blossoms just last for one day, they are quickly replaced by new flowers and their shape and color are hummingbird favorites. Rose of Sharon bushes are suitable for gardens in USDA growing zones five and higher.

The general description of the country
Throughout centuries people have been showing great interest in
culture and art of Egypt, the ancient nation of the world.
Aesthetic ideal of beauty
Reliefs, frescos, sculptures of ancient Egypt help us to judge about aesthetic ideal of human beauty, main types and forms of his clothes. With the help of the schematic and relative image of Ranefer statue (Old Kingdom) we can clearly see the features of ideal image of ancient Egyptians such as high stature, broad shoulders, narrow waist and hips, massive features. Common resemblance with the modern idea of beauty is noticed in woman appearance: slim figures, regular and delicate features, almond-shaped eyes (statue of Ranaya, bust of Nefertiti). Description of the appearance of one of heroines of George Ebers' novel "Uarda" shows us the ideal beauty of ancient Egypt. George Ebers, the famous Egyptologist of XIX century, helps us to imagine the perfect type of beauty of ancient Egypt: "The somewhat dark shade of her skin, warm, fresh and smooth colour, something middle between gold yellow and brownish bronze, indicated that she had no a drop of alien blood in her veins. Straight nose, noble form of forehead, smooth but wiry hair of raven black, graceful arms and legs in bracelets also indicated her pure blood".

NatWest Skills and Opportunities to fund LYST
We are very excited to announce that we have been awarded funding from NatWest skills and opportunities fund to deliver much needed digital skills training to our young entrepreneurs and their start up businesses. LYST were shortlisted for the funding in November and, after a public vote, the news was announced on Monday 11th December.
A report published in 2015 by The House of Lords states that small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) are falling behind with digital technology due to a lack of awareness, skills and low finance. Many small firms still aren't aware of the potential opportunities that digital technology can create and they need to be educated on how it can be used to drive sales and aid their business.
The Skills and Opportunities fund was set up by RBS/NatWest to help build better communities, funding projects that enable people in disadvantaged communities to develop, create or access the skills and opportunities they need to build their financial capability skills or to start or develop a new business now or in the future.
With training in digital skills, our young entrepreneurs will have a better chance of building a sustainable business that can enable them to achieve financial independence.
Thank you to NatWest and to everyone who voted for us, we look forward to getting digital!

Have you ever been in that situation where you want a few jobs done around the house and get some quotes from professionals that make your eyes water and your jaw drop? More than likely you have and you've had to think very carefully about whether you should fork out your hard earned dollars for what you want done.
Maybe you should think again and work out what you could deal with yourself. Not all professionals are rip-off merchants by any means, and can often provide valuable work on bigger jobs, but there is so much you could do yourself. You'll spend a lot less money by sourcing your own materials and because you don't have to pay someone for their time you can put a bit away towards a holiday or a nice restaurant meal.
Many DIY jobs are easy to do and can make a real difference to your interior and exterior spaces, so here are a few ideas to consider.
Repaint your ceilings and walls
There's nothing that gives a home a refreshing makeover more than painting your ceilings and walls. The secret is all in the planning. You don't have to do everything at once, and if you have several rooms you need to pace yourself. Do one room at a time. That sounds obvious but it's easy to get excited and make a start on two or three so you have to live with much more mess than you really want.
Discuss color schemes with family and take the time to look at what will work for each room. Light colors often work best for living areas and you can be more adventurous in bedrooms.
Always prepare ceilings and walls properly, rubbing them down and filling any cracks. You want surfaces that will easily take paint. Cover the floor with old sheets, especially important when you're painting a ceiling, and use an undercoat before you put on the main colors. Your paint job will last longer and give an amazing lift to each room you do.
Simple plumbing
Plumbers are expensive and you need them for some of the bigger plumbing jobs, but there are plenty of small problems you can deal with without calling in an expert.
If your sink isn't draining properly you'll have some type of blockage. You should easily be able to remove the u-bend pipe underneath the sink to see if it's blocked with food or grease remnants. Always put a bowl underneath before you take off the bend to catch any water from the downpipe.
If it's not that, put a powerful chemical cleaner down the plughole, wait for the time stated on the instructions, and then run water through. If that fails too, check the exterior drain. It could have become blocked and thus backing up water. Remove any debris that could be causing the blockage.
Other things to try are using a plunger over the sink's plughole that could help get rid of smaller obstacles and pour boiling water down to help loosen grease.
If your toilet cistern is leaking water into the bowl, switch your water off, flush the cistern so it's empty, remove the central part inside that is screwed onto a rubber washer, and replace the washer. This is usually where a leakage happens. Make sure you screw the central cylinder back down very firmly to create a good seal for the washer.
Renew window coverings
You may think that fitting curtains, blinds or window shutters is a job for the pros, but you can renew your window coverings more easily than you might think.
Take window shutters for example. You can get a wide range of affordable shutters that you can install yourself. You just need to measure up carefully, choose from the many options available in terms of materials, colors and styles, and follow the installation instructions that come with them. It's a very satisfying job to complete and will give any room a clean and stylish look as well as giving the option to let in as much or as little light as you want, especially if you have moveable slats.
Remember too that shutters can give extra insulation during colder temperatures.
Cut costs
Sometimes you have to use professionals for projects but there is so much you can do yourself that will not only mean a large saving in terms of costs but will also give you a great sense of achievement of a job well done.

Construction can begin of 'iconic' first building in Grantham College's £52 million masterplan
The first building in Grantham College's £52 million redevelopment could be completed by the start of the 2017/18 academic year, now that a reserved matters application has been approved.
The development known as 'building 20' on the college's masterplan, will replace the unoccupied former police houses along Stonebridge Road.These will now be demolished, along with other empty buildings that were previously a workshop and office space.
The new timber, brick and glass building will be on split levels in order to fit into the existing gradient of the land, and will link to the Grade II listed Stonebridge House and adjacent stable block, which are to remain.
In February, an outline masterplan was approved to consolidate the nine sites the college currently operates into three, located at the main campus, on Sandon Road, and on Stonebridge Road. Depending on funding, it is hoped the whole project will be achieved over the next 20 years.
The Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership is providing £2.8 million for this first stage, with work on site planned to start in September next year and to last 12 to 18 months. Building 20 will accommodate a business, technology, IT, media and music centre, with a multi-purpose hall and internet café.
Grantham College's principal Linda Houtby said: "We are delighted that our plans have received approval and are grateful for the support we have received from councillors and officers of SKDC. The next stage of the process would be to submit the required information to the Greater Lincolnshire LEP to gain their approval for funding to be drawn.
"It will be an exciting development on the Stonebridge site and will provide both economic investment and an iconic building for the town."

If you haven't noticed, the world is getting weird.
Reality is being poked at, prodded, dissolved, eaten by our current wave of emerging technologies. Long-held digital dreams, such as Virtual Reality and Deep Learning Artificial Intelligence, are becoming everyday tools. They are mating, mutating, re-combining with every application – ever – from enhancing reality and home automation to telling time and farming.
The results are… surprising, usually. Stupid, sometimes. Fascinating, wonderful. Useful. Life-changing. World-changing.
Making Realities is here to offer a place of intelligent discussion, a spotlight for new ideas, and a soapbox for the new issues that will organically emerge from this maelström of creative activity. We are engineers and futurists, working with enterprises and brands to envision pieces of this future, map them to what we can build today, and then invent those futures. We are starting this blog to capture and share and discuss our visions, and the new realities we are all making, together.
Are you working in these fields? Have you got an idea that will set minds on fire, a vision that needs to be shared? You should contribute to Making Realities! Drop me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Saint Paul, MN: The LSW and and I were driving through one of our old neighborhoods on a recent weekend in that happy quadrant that encompasses the University Club, WA Frost, Whole Foods and F Scott's old townhouse on Summit.
One of the places just listed wasn't there when The Observer called this neighborhood home. Back when he could be found playing stump-the-bartender at Frost's or, if you came at the right time of year, climbing tent poles during Octoberfest at Sweeney's.
The addition of Whole Foods was the beachhead in the transformation of the area from a population of slightly anglophile, abstractly-liberal academics to a group of give-me-social-responsibility-in-the-form-of-cool-retail hipsters.
While musing on these changes, the LSW and I pulled into the parking lot of the restaurant next to the Saint Paul Curling Club. I doubt many people remember all the other restaurants that have passed through the same space over the decades including the very forgettable Fraternity Bar and Grill that lasted, maybe, 3 months back in the '90s.
Nick Miller has clearly had more success here with The Happy Gnome, now well into its seventh year. The food is good and, if the weather is pleasant, the patio is a great place to relax, an urban sanctuary set off from the hipster section of Selby. The multi-level decking is well off the street and nicely fenced off from the surrounding parking lot. Flanked by trees and with a canopy of small lights, it's an easy place to settle in.
Settle in is what you'll typically need to do, though. The service during our visits has always been surprisingly slow and staffed by people who have an irritating inability to multi-task. Our server repeatedly schlepped back and forth between a given table and the cash register, only thinking in terms of points A and B and apparently not realizing it was possible to check on the other customers along the way.
The food was quite good but some dishes are overly-complicated: the delicate, sliced cucumber garnish gets overpowered on the Angus Cheeseburger. The fries were good and the freshly-made ketchup was excellent. We also had an order of the Tater Tots, which are not like the small frozen bits you get at the grocery store. These are hefty, burrito-caliber Tater Tots, surprisingly flavorful and accompanied by a bacon-infused ketchup though we preferred dipping them with the garlic aoli that came with the hamburgers. The Wild Rice soup, that staple of Minnesota restaurants, had just enough complexity in the flavors with a nice extra kick from a bit of Tobasco to make it remarkable.
They have a great beer and wine selection. The variety of beers, especially, is impressive and well-chosen. There's also has a great Bloody Mary bar set up during brunch on weekends.
The Happy Gnome certainly deserves to be on your list of places to stop but only if you're prepared to go at their pace.

Winter skipped right into summer over here this year, which means that I'm fully embracing my usual summer can't-live-without habits. Which is basically me doing the least amount of work with the most amount of beach time ;)
messy buns // preferably straight-out-of-the-shower wet with no blowdrying or product required
red toes // or any color to brighten those barefeet
sunscreen // I love a nice brown glow, but my version of a tan is more red then anything so sunscreen is my friend
moisturizer-foundation // I'm all about the limited makeup in the summer heat so mixing my foundation with my face moisturizer is the perfect balance for my skin
smoothies // keep an eye out for a bunch of delicious smoothie recipes coming your way in June! I'm addicted
BBQ burgers and salads // I don't mean green salads, I mean deliciously creamy potato and pasta salads. Recipes coming soon!

Choosing Wisely The Choosing Wisely campaign is a program of the American Board of Internal Medicine Foundation, the 501c3 foundation arm of the American Board of Internal Medicine, and has a campaign goal to "reduce waste in the healthcare system and avoid risks associated with unnecessary treatment."

Certification Culture
Clear evidence of our bureaucracy run amok is found in the rapidly growing area of certification. Years ago people would get hired for a job, perhaps, but not necessarily after specific training in a vocational school, college, or university, and would then proceed to learn the trade through years of applied work. Trainees or apprentices early in their careers may be designated … [Read more...]
New AMA Policy Opposes MOC Exams
Shhh. I think this is supposed to be a secret, but this Wednesday at the super-elite AMA House of Delegates meeting in Chicago, where only the mostly highly connected and AMA devoted doctors get to attend, they actually stood up for us. It is now AMA policy that the AMA opposes mandatory ABMS recertification exams. Crazy, right? News of this random act of fortitude … [Read more...]
High Noon
I recently watched the classic Western movie High Noon (1952). Despite my love for movies and an extensive collection, this was the first time that I had seen this particular film.

For anyone who does not know the story, in the … [Read more...]

As Americans head to the polls for the 2016 elections, here's a look back at my political dinner interviews.
Although it's generally believed that people shouldn't talk politics or religion at the dinner table, some of the interviews I've done over the years have been focused heavily on political talk.
Since launching this site in 2008 I've met people involved in politics at the local, state, and national level including a former U.S. senator, a well-known reporter, and several others. They've all touted the importance of getting involved in politics. Another common theme is that each of the interviewees were downbeat on the current state of politics, but optimistic that it could still be fixed.
Here's the political strangers who got dinner with me:
- Dinner #25 (October 15, 2010): Bryan Weaver, a former member of a Washington, D.C., Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC), talked about his unsuccessful run to unseat a long-serving member of the District's city council
- Dinner #38 (October 14, 2011): I met the late former New York City Mayor Ed Koch for coffee and cupcakes in his office at the law firm Bryan Cave. Our hour-plus together didn't break any news, but he had some interesting things to say about his lengthy career
- Dinner #53 (February 19, 2014): Back in DC for dinner with Matt Abbruzzese, who was running for a slot on an ANC — although he ended up losing the race
- Dinner #90 (April 18, 2016): A very enjoyable evening getting dinner in Rockville, Maryland, with state Senator Cheryl Kagan. She talked a lot about politics, but also about he many other interests including an addiction to playing Scrabble
- Dinner #91 (June 29, 2016): Famous DC correspondent Eleanor Clift — of the now-ended show The McLaughlin Group and currently writing for The Daily Beast — met me in Chevy Chase, Maryland, to talk about her life covering politics
- Dinner #93 (September 9, 2016): Apparently this year was a bonanza for political interviews. The most recent was with former U.S. Senator Larry Pressler (R-SD), now an independent who wants to try and reform the entire political process

On March 17th 2004 I started my observing session with Saturn about 19.00hrs UT from my own backyard. The seeing was great. It had been 20 degrees Celsius all day and I
The Equatorial Zone, the South and North Equatorial Band were visible at 62.5x. At higher magnifications, The South Tropical Zone was also visible; the zones and belts south of this zone appeared as a uniform, slightly darker area. South of the North Equatorial Band in the Equatorial Zone I detected a big oval feature, with a dark rim around it. The red spot was not visible. To give you an idea I made this simple sketch:
I ended the observing session with one of my favourite doubles, Mizar in Ursa Major. On the sketch below you can see Mizar at the centre of the field of view. Alcor lies to the east. Between Mizar and Alcor an 8th magnitude star is visible, that forms a triangle with Alcor and Mizar. The sketch was made using a 32mm Televue Plossl eyepiece (62.5x).

California is poised to hand over its statewide phone system to a team made up of Pacific Bell and MCI, giving the companies a $1-billion contract that for the first time would privatize the government's telecommunications network, according to sources familiar with the decision.
The contract, put out for bid last fall, would provide government employees with a range of services, including 300,000 phone lines, long-distance service, data transmission, Internet access, calling cards and videoconferencing.
Officials from the Department of General Services and the Department of Information Technology will announce the winner of the 10-year contract this morning in Sacramento.
The phone network will replace CalNET, an in-house system the Department of General Services has run for the state since 1991. If CalNET were an independent business, it would be the third-largest phone company in California.

In 2016, Animus Interactive released their first title Avalon Lords into Early Access on Steam. It was their first game to represent the companies direction. Avalon Lords is expected to have a full release first quarter for 2017.

The wise, old man of the team, Chris spends far less time with the former and seems to concentrate on the later. Gaming since Pong was all the rage, he has been working on home computers since the glory days of Commodore. A true geek at heart, Chris is also a long time tabletop RPG and strategy war gamer. Once he's had his fill of long walks on the beach, smelling the flowers and licking the windows, he enjoys crushing in some orc skulls while he relaxes with good friends, soggy pizza and a cold beer.

John was born in 1983 to loving human parents amid the height of the designer dog craze. He began playing video games in 1986. It was during this time that he decided he wanted to be involved with dog grooming, breeding, and showing. After several failed attempts at having puppies, and no dogs to show for it, in 1989 John began the arduous task of learning to master the ways of dog grooming. In 1994 John's parents left him to meet their creator. On an unrelated note, they arrived with fabulous hair. At the tender age of 13, John was already an accomplished soap and shampoo mixer and could wash and wax a dog in under 13 seconds. His dream was the perfect wash, the infamous "Wanton Furball." Such a wash was elusive to him until 1999 when he learned about it on the internet.
I'm a Unity developer from the west coast of Canada specializing primarily in optimizing render pipelines. When I'm not developing something nifty in Unity I'm spending far too much time playing Counter-Strike or whatever the latest trendy game happens to be.

After sailing the seven seaâs in search of whiskey and purpose Ryan settled in Long Beach California. A born leader ready to conquer the digital realm steering this ship through spreadsheets and a keen eye for keeping his crewâs heads above water and enjoying the ride that is life in game development. While He is still working on his sea legs on this new horizon of the digital seaâs, he has a thunderous laugh sailing into the storm.
A deity worshiped by the feline-people ('feople') deep within a mountain in the Amazonian rain forests, Ryan sought to briefly escape and live the humble life of a mortal for the span of a single man-generation. He quickly became enthralled by the customs of the hairless man-beasts, engaging in the more enigmatic aspects of their culture such as art and entertainment. He speaks to his people still today by placing hidden messages within the video games that the man-beasts consume, using frequencies so high that only the beasts' household feline messengers can hear.
Ilia enjoys solving problems, wherever they come from and whatever the goal is - to get a green tick in the leaderboard of an online programming contest, to checkmate a guy sitting at the other end of the chessboard, or to phrase his thoughts in French (which could be rather challenging for a self-learner from Russia with a limited vocabulary). But most of all, he loves to see the problem visually on every step of the way and to be able to interact with it. So far, he hasn't found a better way to do it, rather than phrasing gameplay features in programming languages.
