Things seem more natural after sleep. I refer to math constructions like "Let's build," "Suppose we have," and other proposals. Happily proceeding from definition to definition, and then to proofs, is the wall to climb. Thinking about math before doing a pullup: yes, let's have an ordinal system and here are its properties.
Thinking in layers, we go from elements organized into groups discretized into classes, and each class representing some number of elements symbolized by digits, and these are called cardinal numbers, but the numerals themselves are actually natural numbers. And the endless list you built before is yet another layer; on top is the ordinal system.
This has the property of "before" and "after," "precedes" and "follows." On top of this (again) we have assemblages of men, a few of whom could have coincident heights – prohibited in the two levels beneath – an imposition of ranking that we had to explicitly define as possible before.

New Tax Credits for US Taxpayers Resident in the United Kingdom
A recent decision passed by the Internal Revenue Service has created a new potential tax credit for US taxpayers who reside in the United Kingdom. According to this recent policy change, US taxpayers resident in the UK can now offset the UK non-domiciled (non-dom) levy as a deduction against their tax bill.
What is the UK Non-Dom Levy?
UK non-doms are able to elect each year to be taxed on an alternative basis. This is known as taxation on a "remittance basis." By electing to be taxed on a remittance basis, non-doms with a non-UK source of income or capital gains may be taxed only when the income is forwarded to the UK
However, for long-term non-doms – those who have qualified for remittance basis tax for at least seven of the previous nine years – there is a special tax levy that must be paid.
The non-dom levy, known as the Remittance Basis Charge (RBC), typically amounts to around £30,000 (approximately $48,900) in addition to the standard remittance basis tax.
This amount is due to increase even further in 2011. The United Kingdom's national budget for 2011 has raised the Remittance Basis Charge to a staggering £50,000 for those with twelve years residence. It will remain at £30,000 for those who have only resided in the UK for between seven and twelve years.
How Will This Decision Affect American Taxpayers?
US law typically gives a credit for all income earned in a foreign country during the course of the tax year. The recent decision made by the IRS classifies the UK non-dom levy as income, thereby allowing it to qualify for a deduction on US federal tax returns.
This news comes as a great relief to many expatriot Americans in the UK. Since the United States practices worldwide taxation, many American taxpayers resident in the UK were effectively being taxed twice on their income. Under the new ruling, this problem should be eliminated, saving taxpayers significant sums of money.

Woke up feeling very very ordinary. Felt sorry for Chris as he had a 10am flight so he was out early on about 2 hours sleep. I repacked my bag, showered and checked out 30mins late. Skyped and Facebooked for a bit and then went into the old town and got a hangover cure: croissant and apple turnover with an orange & grapefruit juice. Wandered around feeling a bit sorry for myself and I didn't really have anything to see or do so I just window shopped. The shops aren't really noticeable, or good so I settled for Nike and book stores. I found one electronics shop but it was more like Harvey Norman than JB Hifi. Decided to have lunch at a Thai place I had seen a few days earlier an had the hottest noodles I have had for ages. Being a bit sick I must have been quite the picture: sweaty face, watering eyes, running nose. I had to wash the noodles down with a strawberry juice and then a Mojito.
Everything is really cheap here, a 0.5L beer in a bar (non tourist trap) will set you back about $2-2.50aud. I bought 3 bread rolls, 100g of ham and a tomato for about $2.80 for dinner last night.
After lunch I bought 'About a Boy' by Nick Hornby to read on the plane to Rome. Read 'High Fidelity' on the last flight and couldn't believe I had it for so long and didn't read it.
I went back to the hostel and picked up my stuff. I'd been organised and booked a shuttle bus to the airport which was a bit of a luxury after the usual public transport or walking with both packs.
I was also organised for the flight, paid $9aud extra when I booked to have an emergency row seat. The airline I was on has no reserved seating so it's just a matter of grabbing a seat. I had a seat with a spare next to me and next to that was a Czech guy named Cyrill (or Kirril in Czech). He was really nice and he'd had a rough day and didn't want to drink alone so bought me a wine. We talked about Prague life and he admitted that unless you really like architecture, and as I suspected it's best to visit with someone who lives there. He did tell me a lot about Prague and the former communist times and he was great to talk to. I offered my services as a Sydney guide, but chances are I'll be in Prague before he's in Sydney.
Got in to Rome at 9:15 and got the Leonardo Express train into Roma Termini where Goodway and Juss were waiting for me. It was great to see them and the talk was pretty thick and fast with travel stories and news. We had a few beers at my hostel's bar and before we knew it 2:30am rolled around and we had to say goodbyes. It was weird seeing them for such a short time in a strange place, but it has made me more excited for London.

The Schengen Agreement<\/a><\/strong>, named after the small town of Luxembourg where it was\u00a0signed on 18 June 1985, gave life to the area of the same name that allows\u00a0the free movement of persons. It\u2019s one of the most important and effective peace agreements ever achieved between sovereign states. Its entry into force, begun in 1985, made possible that borders once insurmountable \u2013 defined as the Iron Curtain<\/a><\/strong> by the British statesman Winston Churchill \u2013 no longer exist. However, given the elimination of internal controls, the countries along the common external borders \u2013 such as Italy, Hungary or Spain \u2013 have to implement stricter control\u00a0measures.<\/p>\n
<\/iframe><\/div>\n
22 out of 26 countries of the Schengen Area are European Union member states. The 4 remaining countries are Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland. Only 2 European countries declined to sign the agreement: Ireland and the United Kingdom. Besides, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Croatia, and Romania are waiting to join it.<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
The enlargement in\u00a02004<\/strong><\/h2>\n
The latest huge enlargement took\u00a0place in 2004 when Slovenia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, and Malta joined the Schengen area. It was a challenge that made leaders and citizens experience intense emotions.<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
What happened after the Paris attack<\/h2>\n
In 2015, after the huge migrant flows coming from the Middle East (mostly from Syria) and from the African continent that tried to enter the European Union\u2019s borders and after the terrorist attacks carried out in Paris on 13 November, some countries decided to reintroduce controls at their borders, due to the allegedly presence of \u201cserious threats for public order and internal security\u201d, as well as of \u201csevere deficiencies in external borders controls\u201d. Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Austria, France, and Germany decided to suspend the agreement, but everything should be back to normality by the end of February.<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
Why Schengen won\u2019t be\u00a0revoked<\/h2>\n
The European Union\u2019s Ministers of Internal Affairs are debating on the possibility of a two-year suspension. However, the agreement \u2013 except for extreme scenarios \u2013 cannot be permanently abolished or substantially modified because it would be necessary resorting to the \u201csimplified revision\u201d procedure, which requires the unanimity of votes of the Council of the European Union<\/a><\/strong> and a new ratification of all states.<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
<\/a>
The stone marking the border between Hungary and Romania\u00a0\u00a9 kelenbp<\/p><\/div>\n
 <\/p>\n
Schengen is precious<\/strong><\/h2>\n
All southern European countries, particularly Italy and Greece, are contrary to the agreement abolition and the two-year suspension proposal. Even if the end of the Schengen area is used as a "slogan" by many nationalist and conservative parties that no longer want migrants in their country, things are different. For instance, without the Schengen area migrants coming through the Mediterranean Sea would be blocked in Italy\u2019s borders due to the presence of physical and legal barriers that wouldn\u2019t allow them to move towards northern Europe to find a job or join their families. All in all, restoring controls at borders would implicate huge sums due to the physical reintroduction of barriers and the training of skilled personnel. Not to mention all the problems that would be caused to the transport industry and to those working in border cities, i.e. the so called cross-border workers, which are numerous between Italy and Switzerland.<\/p>\n

Inevitably, if you work anywhere in the Federal space, you have had some involvement with the process of getting an IT system accredited for use.

Previously, the focus has been on my credit card and banking information — three times in last two years. But OPM had my SF-86 (my security clearance questionnaire) on file. With that information, you can become me. It lists not just my PII, but also the PII of my friends and family members, my…

Courtship. Release Music Video For "Tell Me Tell Me" Featuring "IT" Star Jack Grazer
Indie pop duo Courtship. have today released the music video for their breezy single "Tell Me Tell Me", which Nylon premiered and praised for it's "bright, poppy" aesthetic. The video features IT star Jack Grazer and his girlfriend Ellie in a charming homage to the universe of Wes Anderson's film Moonrise Kingdom. The track is available on all digital retailers now and will be included on their forthcoming debut album, due out this later spring.
The band is currently out on tour with English bands The Hunna and Coasts, before they embark on another U.S. run with Night Riots this June. The Los Angeles two-some recently wrapped up their first ever tours with The Wombats and Passion Pit to stellar reviews. For tickets and a complete list of dates, please see below or visit HERE.
Courtship. - Comprised of Eli Hirsch [guitar, vocals] and Micah Gordon [keyboard, vocals] - have generated a quick, noticeable splash in the online music community with their funky guitar flavors, shimmering keys, and righteous falsetto-colored hooks. When their first collaboration "Stop For Nothing" was released in 2016, the track lit up popular Spotify playlists such as "A Perfect Day," "It's ALT Good," and "Indie Pop," amassing over 2.7 million streams and counting. Acclaimed early on by Billboard, NME, The Four Oh Five, and more, they landed a major sync as Snapchat chose "Sunroof" to soundtrack a Custom Stories launch campaign.

COULEE CITY, Wash. — Pumped up with muscular air-intake hood scoop, bulging side skirts and tail-mounted flying wing, a sporty Impreza 2.5 RS coupe bears the badge of Subaru but seems vaguely out of place among Subaru's line of utilitarian sedans and rugged all-wheel-drive wagons.
It's uncharacteristically racy, and those big alloy wheels, tinted to a brilliant gold, look flashy and fast.
So why would Subaru — the Japanese automaker recognized as a world leader in traction technology and whose image in the United States has been honed by the durability of a practical line of all-wheel-drive vehicles — promote a sporty little coupe that could very well run circles around all of the other vehicles in this line?
For an answer, we must search outside North America's boundaries to discover another image for Subaru that has been developed on other continents, where automobile rally racing receives the kind of sports attention that football fans in the United States reserve for contests like the Super Bowl.
In countries like France, Japan, Argentina and Australia, rally races pit driver and co-pilot against maps and clocks and daredevil competitors tearing across treacherous roads wound through cities and countryside — and Subaru wins the world rally title time after time, thanks to gutsy drivers and the wily nature of Subaru's rally car, the Impreza 555.
That Subaru, with modifications like a roll cage added and high-output engine aboard, served as inspiration for the Impreza 2.5 RS Coupe, which mixes incongruously into Subaru's array of rather tepid sedans and wagons.
Start with an Impreza injected with steroids
This Subaru sports coupe showed up on eastern slopes of the Cascade Range in the state of Washington for a series of driving tests.
A walk-around briefing before the driving began revealed how the 2.5 RS was created. Origins trace to the two-door-coupe variation of Subaru's subcompact Impreza sedan, which first appeared in 1995 with optional horsepower and a link to Subaru's all-wheel-drive system.
1999 Subaru Impreza
Page 2
1999 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS interior
The Sube's sober interior belies its gritty performance goodies.
The exterior of this version collects some extra fixtures, like the hood scoop and rear wing spoiler that set it apart from other Imprezas. Inside, special touches add a sporty flair, such as a leather-wrapped steering wheel, analog gauges including tachometer, and a sunroof.
For power, Subaru borrowed from the Legacy Outback wagon a twin-cam 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, then turned to the Impreza 555 for a tight five-speed manual transmission with short-throw linkage. That plant, the largest that Subaru imports to our market, produces 165 horsepower and excellent torque numbers.
With cylinders opposed horizontally and set perpendicular to the driveline, Impreza's engine uses equal-length drive shafts so pairs of cylinders act like boxers jabbing at one another in counterbalanced movements which negate the typical engine's vibrations.
In addition, an on-board all-wheel-drive system functions like all other Subarus in our market in the essence of simplicity. Power from the engine moves directly through an electronically controlled smart transfer case to the wheels that need traction, with scant loss of energy or reduction in fuel efficiency.
Subaru's traction advantage
Subaru's all-wheel-drive system operates continuously to automatically transfer power from wheels that slip to those that can grip. It's the precise bite of wheels gripping the road at all times that gives Impreza 555 an edge in world rally competition, and the principle works equally well when applied to 2.5 RS.
The traction advantage becomes obvious on slippery surfaces like rain-soaked streets, but it produces downright thrilling results when this car tackles a set of tricky curves like those we encountered while climbing through hills to the Disauter Summit in a run across the Colville Indian Reservation along Route 155.
1999 Subaru Impreza
Page 3
Grand Coulee Dam spans the Columbia River at Electric City to form vast Roosevelt Lake, which has a finger projected southwest with Route 155 skirting the shore to Coulee City. Our tester Impreza ripped over this course in a fun run that pumped up the driver's blood pressure.
With relatively modest weight but substantial power output, the car can scoot. Dust, swirling over broad plains east of the Cascades, blew across the beeline course of U.S. 2 as we nudged the speedometer to triple digits in a test for stability at high speed. The RS felt solid and still rooted to the pavement, and we noted little concession for wind noise.
This apparent rigidity in motion traces in part to the Impreza's structural design in unibody format. The platform originated with an abbreviated version of the Subaru Legacy sedan, and for the 2.5 RS, its front-wheel track widens slightly for a broader stance. Unlike the Legacy, though, which is produced at Subaru's joint-venture plant in Indiana, all Imprezas come together at the sophisticated mother plant in Gunma, Japan.
The Impreza's racy coupe wears a long-stroke, four-wheel independent MacPherson-strut suspension system which mirrors the sport-tuned setup that led an Impreza 555 to victory for two consecutive years in the World Rally Championship.
Standard mechanical features include speed-sensitive power rack-and-pinion steering and disc brakes at all wheels with four-channel computerized anti-lock control. Thorough safety hardware includes structural crumple zones, side door braces and dual front airbags.
The interior layout positions twin bucket seats in front of a bench rated for three but best suited for two. Reclining front buckets contain bold side bolsters to help retain body position during strenuous lateral maneuvers. An instrument panel carries a handy tray on top above the center stack of vent ducts and climate system controls.
Conveniences include a tilting steering column, intermittent windshield wipers and standard air conditioning but extend to power equipment for windows and door locks, and an 80-watt stereo AM-FM radio system with cassette deck and four speakers.

Compassionate School Network (CSN)
The Compassionate School Network (CSN) is a research-based approach to test the experimental ideas which use creative approaches to cause peace building in education. They have been found to have better teacher effectiveness, higher student achievement, and improved school environment. Using it as a collaborative resource for academic, social, and emotional learning in schools; it has worked as one of the most well-designed, evidence-based learning programs.
Compassionate Schools in Sukkur and Khairpur
The Golden Rule is "to make this world a peaceful place, is to treat others the same way we would wish to be treated". This dogma is what revolves around each project of the Government of Sindh Education and Literacy Department. After consistent efforts of the Charter for Compassion (CfC) to make humanity common in all corners of Pakistan; the charter made another goal to take education to the next level in the country. The EMO project along with the CfC, made a Sindh Education Sector Plan which sets its goal to make every child in the province not only educated without a financial aid, but also given quality education competing the private schooling system and opportunities for deserving youth to earn a living through teaching profession.
Mumkin - Women Empowerment Initiative
According to a famous saying; "If you educate a woman you educate an entire generation. A woman is the nucleus of a household and plays a major role in raising her children."
Mumkin is a social learning space for underprivileged women come together, socially connect with each other, acquire useful skills and share their knowledge. The project title highlights the message that women are equal members of society and with the right attitude and improved skill set; it is possible for them to become a thriving asset for a society.
Coordinator's Project
The Coordinator's project started under the Compassionate School Network in 2013-Date The very first school CfC worked was Government Girls Intelligence School Sultanabad, which was an adopted school by Mr. Moinuddin Haider. CfC signed an MoU in order to take care of the Management of the school, this included the monitoring of the Government Staff, hiring of Coordinators (Subject Specific) and school coordinators. CfC was also responsible for training the staff. There are three schools that come under the Moinuddin Haider's Adoptee list.
Collaborative Libraries Project
With the advent of technology and e-books, the reading culture in libraries is becoming extinct. More so, the lack of libraries in our country is depriving children today from the fulfilling and gratifying experience of reading books.
Bearing this thought process; the Collaborative Libraries Project (CLP) was conceptualized under the Compassionate Karachi campaign in 2014. With the generous support of our donor, Jubilee Life Insurance, 15 libraries were created in underserved schools of Korangi, Lyari and Shireen Jinnah Colony impacting over 5000 students who had never experienced a library before.
Compassionate Footprint Initiative
Since the occurrence of the most devastating heat wave in Karachi 2015, the city witnessed a deep shock of losing more than 1200 lives. This warranted immediate action, hence leading to the creation of the Compassionate Footprint project. Our teams went into an immediate overdrive to spread awareness about the environment. Our target audience was schools' and we supplemented our awareness campaign with a plantation drive to increase the strength of our message.
Compassionate Sports
Compassionate Sports is an initiative taken by the Charter for Compassion to engage children of lesser privileged areas to participate in productive and healthy sports activities. We intend to build personality and character through the means of sports. The CCC was established on 1st February 2014. We maintained a trial period of two months and successfully engaged 1200 children! Our committed coaches were present to select talented youths and motivate committed players. The camp took place in areas of Korangi, Lyari Sultanabad and Hijrat Colony.
Compassionate Schools in Thar
Charter for Compassion Pakistan in collaboration with Sindh Engro Coal Mining Company (SECMC) is managing three primary schools in small villages of Tharparkar District of Sindh. These three villages are Biitra, Mansingh Bheel and Thariyo Halepota respectively.
Compassionate Business Quotient
Compassionate Business Quotient is an effort to evoke compassionate thought and action in individuals from different walks of life. In 2011 a study was conducted in Pakistan to determine the level of compassion in professionals from 21 organizations from different industries and sectors, surprisingly none these reputable organizations could be categorized as highly compassionate. This indicates the dire need for compassionate trainings in organizations.
Ramzaan Challenge Activity
Research indicates that individuals who develop reading habits at an early age tend to cultivate better comprehension skills. These skills if nurtured in the ideal schooling environment enable a child to acquire improved academic achievements. Unfortunately, with the rising trend in the prioritizing of various technologies over a set of books, this skill has been seldom worked on.
EBM Arts Competition
Dream, believe and achieve is the philosophy we carry; in order to do that, it is very important to support the cause of Arts. Children are wonders of imagination therefore, Charter for Compassion, along with English Biscuit Manufacturers (EBM) brought forward an art competition themed: "Compassion". For young artists ranging from 6 years to 16 years, to showcase their imagination and produce works of wonder. With 8 schools participating and over 400 young artists coming forward, the competition was held on January 30th, 2014 at the Shaheed Benazir Bhutto Park.
The topics varied from random acts of kindness to courage, highlighting the concept of how sad our world would be without compassion. This competition reflected on turning our city into a compassionate one - by allowing participants to draw, paint, color their imaginations, dreams and emotions based on the topic they choose.
Adolescent and Adult Learning and Training Program
The Adult and Adolescent Learning and Training Program (AALTP) aims to provide accelerated non-formal education to vulnerable adolescent and basic functional literacy for adults together with a certified vocational training course.
Charter for Compassion (CfC) Pakistan signed the agreement with Sindh Education Foundation (SEF) on 17th April 2017 for 15 centers targeting approximately 4,000 learners. CFC has established 12 centers in Karachi, 1 Centre in Badin, 1 Centre in Sukkur and 1 in Khairpur.
CfC as an implementing partner will impart AALTP Course in the duration of 3 years. The AALTP course comprises of 3 Packages- 'Package A' is designed for katchi and Grade I (duration 8 months), 'Package B' is designed for Grade II / Grade III (duration 8 months) and 'Package C' is designed for Grade IV and Grade V (duration 14 months)."
Compassionate Schools – Badin
Over the past five years, the education of Sindh has been plummeting due to lack of resources. These include non-qualified staff, shortage of water, unavailability of electricity, among other legitimate problems. As of today, about three million children are out of schools. However, Sindh Education Foundation (SEF) has launched programs to promote private school in rural Sindh (PPRS) under a public-private partnership schemes as part of Sindh education reform program II 2013 -14. The program initially launched under SERP-I in 2008-09 continues as a part of SERP-II, the program has been designed by the SEF in collaboration with the reform support unit and the World Bank.
Bridges - Compassionate Community Centre
The stark contrast between polar opposite segments of Karachi- Pakistan's largest city- could not be more evident than around the Qayyumabad bridge. The vacant space under the bridge is usually occupied by homeless families, and drug addicts. Whilst only a few kilometers away from the bridge is situated a huge college campus where student enrollment is up to ten thousand.
The Whys and Wherefores: Research indicates that Altruism and Compassion – attributes essentially considered inseparable from medical professionalism – do not always endure and explores the real-time issues medical professionals face at their jobs. Compassion fatigue and burnout are the leading difficulties that cause decreased enthusiasm and motivation in these professionals, eventually leading to decreased employee engagement and patient satisfaction. Committing to science and practice of compassionate care, Charter for Compassion Pakistan launched Compassion in Healthcare, the first of its kind initiative in the world, in July 2018.

Letter to the editor: Serena Williams plays the victim
Amid an avalanche of epithets, verbal insults, demands for satisfaction and threats of professional censorship, Serena Williams collapsed into a quagmire of petulant, righteous indignation inspired by the false perception of perpetual victim-hood, both gender- and race-based. What a shame. Naomi Osaka deserved better.

Sendawaythetigers Existential Question Time
You may have noticed sendawaythetigers is on a slight sabbatical.
The sole aim of SATT is to make intelligence fashionable again; we will never sacrifice quality for quantity.
So, with life getting in the way and John Terry keeping quiet ahead of his impending demise, posts have become increasingly sporadic. We just can't keep putting out satisfying articles at the rate that we and you have become accustomed to.
But they will still continue. And hopefully you will still enjoy them.
We've achieved quite a lot in our brief existence – views are healthy, we have a dedicated fanbase and could, at this rate, continue to grow.
There is also quite a 'gap-in-the-Internet-market' for us.
A lot of people seem to be trying similarly toned humorous writing online, blending satire with surrealism, real life with the imagined and thought with passion.
And truly, we are the best. Look at Sabotage Times for example, a huge website that cries tries-to-hard.
So we really don't want this good thing to end.
We will continue posting, on a less regular basis, but we also want you.
We want writers. We need writers.
And we know you can do it.
You can write about anything at all. Just aim to keep it topical and news related.
And you will get something out of it too. There's plenty of advantages – it's therapeutic, it hones your skills, it looks good amongst peers and employers and most importantly it's lovely knowing people read and appreciate you and your mind's eye. (Please note there is no payment)
So if you have anything to say, no matter how trivial or niche, then please do get in touch.
You can email us: email@example.com
You can Facebook us here.
Or you can contact one of our writers (if you know who we are of course.)
Naturally there will be a degree of Quality Control from our Editorial team. But don't let that put you off.
We look forward to hearing from you.

aPriori Elevates Costing to a New Level with Latest Release of Product Cost Management Platform
Concord, Mass. December 10, 2012 aPriori, a leading provider of enterprise product cost management software solutions, today announced the general availability of the newest release of its award-winning technology. aPriori 2012r2 delivers expanded capabilities that further enable the platform to be deployed across global manufacturing organizations, continuing the companys mission to drive product cost awareness upstream into the earliest stages of new product development. aPriori 2012r2 also enables customers to more effectively leverage data hosted in other critical enterprise applications such as ERP and PLM systems, and communicate product cost information between all functional organizations involved in product definition and delivery.
aPrioris Product Cost Management software platform was designed to help companies attack cost at the point of origin by equipping design, engineering, sourcing and manufacturing professionals with the knowledge and technology infrastructure to quickly and precisely determine the cost of a part or complete product. A core competency of aPriori is that it leverages computer-aided design and intelligent cost models to quickly generate a detailed manufacturing analysis and cost estimates and quantify the impact of changes to product design, materials, manufacturing processes, volumes and location.
Specific new capabilities being introduced with aPriori 2012r2 that help manufacturers protect product profitability include:
Import of complex engineering Bills of Materials (BOMs) from ERP, PLM or other enterprise applications. BOMs can be organized by unique functional groups and end users can leverage the core aPriori cost engine to calculate costs for new components and subassembly designs and compare with target cost. The updated product cost can then be shared across the enterprise so that all functional organizations operate from the same product cost playbook. A video demonstration of this new functionality is available here.
aPriori Virtual Production Environments (VPEs) can now be configured to inherit material and machine data and cost model logic from other VPEs (aPrioris digital representation of a real-world manufacturing factory). This allows customer to more easily expand cost scenarios, study the impact of new tradeoff decisions and streamline system maintenance.
Simplified creation and refinement of cost estimates by consolidating inputs into a single menu panel. This helps design engineers and other cost novices more efficiently produce cost estimates when evaluating early stage design and sourcing alternatives.
Expanded capabilities to override preliminary data inputs. Cost engineers and sourcing specialists can more easily refine cost estimates for developing internal factory time standards or better supplier negotiations.
Authenticate users from different functional groups and geographic locations via LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) making it easier to manage and control expanded usage of the aPriori platform.
Updated Regional VPEs now accommodate European material naming conventions and machine preferences driven by increasing demand for product cost management in Europe.
An Enhanced Progressive Die model improves automated calculations for machine selection, material utilization, die station estimation, and tooling estimation.
Expanding on the major upgrade to machining cost calculation introduced in November 2011, aPriori 2012r2 provides additional improvements for costing precision machining with increased sensitivity to geometric tolerances. As a result, low volume complex product manufacturers can leverage aPrioris automated machining capabilities to accelerate the creation of cost estimates for milled and turned parts. A video demonstration of this new functionality is available here.
Product Cost Rollups
Most product manufacturers today, especially those dealing with complex machinery, have strategic platform strategies that involve sharing a set of common design, engineering, and production efforts, as well as major components, over a number of distinct models. This necessitates the ability to compare estimated costs for product design alternatives at the functional group (e.g., powertrain) and product levels (e.g., complete assembled vehicle). In addition to the BOM loader mentioned above, aPriori 2012r2 provides a number of new capabilities in this area that enable users to:
Begin an NPI project by loading an initial BOM, including pre-existing component attributes (e.g., cost target, supplier, etc.) and costs, which can be used to support project execution, cost analysis and tracking.
Import Functional Group hierarchies that create logical rollup structures within the BOM that can be used for comparison and analysis between BOMs
Track project changes month-to-month or compare new vs. existing BOMs.
Easily share cost knowledge between PLM and ERP systems enabling a more complete, accurate and real-time view of product cost across the organization.
aPriori has historically done an exceptional job at calculating the cycle time and cost of complex manufacturing operations for components and small product assemblies, represented in a 3D CAD model or assembly design, commented Julie Driscoll, aPrioris vice president of strategic product management and marketing. This new product release elevates our technology platform to a new level, enabling our customers to better integrate and leverage information from other enterprise applications to support cost tracking in NPI projects, evaluate product design alternatives at the functional group or complete product level, and understand the cost implications of different tradeoff decisions. We believe product cost tracking is a critical component to a manufacturers cost management strategy. aPriori is committed to providing a flexible costing platform that can support the tracking process or output cost information to other systems if a tracking process is already in place.

Girls of Odessa stand apart from other Ukrainian ladies. This naturally owes to their cultural, as well as traditional background based on their location. Odessa is an unusual city, so people living here are also unusual. They have a more cheerful outlook on life, which influences their attitude towards other people and ongoing events. Besides, they are quite pragmatic in a positive way, talented in business and great negotiators. Mixture of cultures, yet a strong influence of Jewish tradition make ladies of Odessa dating agencies excellent cooks, perfect housewives and tender mothers.
Odessa Girls are tightly connected with their parents or siblings alike. Local families remind of Italian ones, the same joyful, happy, loud and friendly. Jokes are an integral part of their life, despite the goings-on around. Humor is a lifestyle and probably the most accurate identification of Odessits.
City of rest and relaxation
Odessa is a diverse city with rich cultural heritage and developed infrastructure. Everyone will find here something special and absolutely unique to satisfy their passion for travelling. This place is attractive not only for its views and the seaside. You will be astonished with a wide variety of cafes, restaurants, pizza houses where you can enjoy delicious meals. Apart from that, it offers a vivid nightlife with a large selection of dance clubs, cocktail bars, and live music pubs.
Sightseeing enjoyment
Many architectural monuments of the city are true pieces of art. The best European architects worked on creating a splendid image of Odessa. Each building is special and tells its own story, so you will not find two similar creatures. The look of the city was greatly influenced by French and Italian styles with a hint of Mediterranean charm. A mixture of different architectural trends, such as Classicism, Neo Renaissance, Neo-Gothic, Art Nouveau, make the city a truly unique cultural and architectural phenomenon.
Big love
You will not find in Odessa any person who does not love the sea. Those who do not, neither live here nor come here. Fine beaches that stretch along the coastline, city quays, berth restaurants, parks with amazing sea views are always full of visitors. The city natives confess that they cannot live inland, far from the sea. If such happens, they terribly miss the smell of salty air, the squawking of seagulls and the sound of crashing waves.
Capital of Humor
People of Odessa are as unique as their city. They have an incredible sense of humor, which is impossible to acquire. You have to be born with it. Probably, the humor gene is embedded in Odessits' DNA or taken in with mother's milk. Outstanding Ukrainian and Russian comic writers mostly originate from this place. However, any urban dweller could pass for an outstanding humorist, because their sense of fun, vibrant language and ability to create fantastic idioms, make their jokes absolutely brilliant and amusing.

If you're puzzled as to what a BB Cream is, here's a little catchup. BB Creams (aka Beauty Balms or Blemish Balms) are all-in-one face creams that replace the need for a separate serum, moisturizer, primer, foundation and sunblock. Yep, they're the definition of amaze. And we've just recently discovered that there's something even more rad hitting the market: CC Creams (aka Color Control Creams), which will provide all the benefits of BB Creams and will also improve discoloration, fine lines and wrinkles. I mean, we're not sure how it gets any better than this, but if there's a DD Cream out there, bring it on!
Check out these five CC creams that you can get your hands on now (or, in the very near future).

Buckle up butter cup this is a long and confusing digression…
TV is a bizarre concept, essentially you pay vast sums of money for a gigantic piece of technology to gawp at, with vaguely annoying celebrities and stupid people on it until you die of some kind of couch related illness.
It is very rare I find something on tv that doesn't inherently annoy me, like my tastes in music (Again I may be autistic), I have found maybe one or two things in the past few years which I actually enjoy.
One is called 'Castle' and the other I will get onto in a little while.
I first discovered Nathan Fillion in a show called Firefly, which I only watched because it was at least partly created by a man who was the primary driving force behind Buffy the Vampire Slayer (The series not the movie), which was officially the first show I ever thought was awesome. Who is, if anyone is interested, Joss Weedon.
I have however since come away from the things he does on account of the fact that he seems to be doing a lot of things now without much prior thought… Or because he's popular now… Pick one.
Although wierdly enough Mr Fillion was in Buffy, just the final series which I eventually got around to watching… After being annoyed by series 6… And watching Firefly.
I saw an advert once about a show called Castle and saw that it was about essentially a gigantic cavalier arsehole, who also happened to be a writer… So I watched it, and it became one of my favourate programmes on Tv.
(TV has mind stupefication powers! Why I have a fez in front of it I am unsure… Because?)
Now swinging finally around to the point which made me start this entry is my second favourate TV show of the past decade.
If you have ever watched something called How I met your Mother obsessively or religiously – like I did at university – wow that show saw me through a lot of rough times – then you will know what I am talking about when I say "BUILD BIGGER DOORS!".
I mean I am not exactly the most massive human being but, for the love of any deity which you find relevant, can we not build bigger stuff.
This thought occurred to me when I really needed to use the rest room, on account of a nigh on explosive bladder.
I found one in the basement of some shopping centre whilst I was on my way to work (So I needed to be fast about it).
But on my way passed all of the other people, I hit them all on account of the fact I cannot exactly be described as petite.
Then once in the – we shall say 'water closet' – I could not move much, hitting everything inside and knocking all sorts over as I turned around to lock the damn door.
Suffice to say, I really want to have bigger stuff built, or at the very least for someone to realise we haven't been that small as a race for about thirty years.
Listen, I know space is at a premium or whatever but fuck… Build bigger stuff.

The objective of this project is to discover the impact of symmetry on the properties of nanomaterials, and subsequently use this knowledge to design novel nanomaterials with extraordinary properties (e.g. ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism and superconductivity) that are tailored to technological applications. Of particular interest in this project is the unearthing of nanomaterials that are multiferroic (i.e. both ferroelectric and ferromagnetic).
Motivation and Introduction
A number of nanomaterials display extraordinary properties compared to their bulk counterparts, which renders them interesting from both a scientific and technological perspective. Applications of nanomaterials include energy harvesting, conversion and storage, efficient power transmission, and development of high specific strength structural components. Unfortunately, the discovery of such nanomaterials is severely hindered by the fact that current experimental and computational approaches typically rely on empirical insight, since they are unable to systematically traverse the enormous configurational space (i.e. different possible geometries) of nanomaterials.
Proposed Work
Most esoteric properties of nanomaterials are a consequence of their inherent symmetry, either intact or broken. In this project, we will therefore choose symmetry as the principal parameter for traversing the configurational space of nanomaterials. In particular, we will develop a symmetry-adapted mathematical and computational framework for the design of novel nanomaterials with tailored properties. We will utilize quantum-mechanical calculations based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) along with inverse problem theory to discover multiferroic nanomaterials, which represents an open problem. This project will represent a first step towards designing materials with specific targeted properties.
Prerequisite Knowledge
It is desirable that the student participating in this project possess basic programming skills.

Founded in 1919, Armstrong Siddeley was a perfect combination of the skills of an aircraft maker (Armstrong Whitworth) and an upmarket car maker (Siddeley Deasy). Their joint venture earned respect in the UK and they received appreciation to be the respected manufacturers of the convertible cars. Around the 1930s and 1940s they were popular for coming up with innovative and quality cars. Hurricane DHC – Armstrong Siddeley was one of their well-equipped luxury cars that had an edgy design over the overtly sporting cars.
Tactic to take on the Markets:
What majority of the manufacturers did back then was to re-launch all their pre-war models post the World War II. However, Armstrong and Siddeley had a different take on this approach. They quietly worked on the 16hp range and launched the Hurricane DHC – Armstrong Siddeley by May-1945. After that, they did come up with Lancaster saloon version; Tempest, Typhoon and Whitley, but the Hurricane DHC gave them the memories of their lifetime.
Features of Hurricane DHC – Armstrong Siddeley:
- Unlike the other convertible cars, this one was a stylish 4 to 5 seater, with three position drophead coupe.
- It had a developed version of 1991cc 70bhp overhead valve six. This gave the car an incredible speed of 75mph.
- Hurricane came with an independent front suspension which was introduced in the cars by Armstrong Siddeley.
- This car featured Girling hydro-mechanical brakes and traditional four-speed synchromesh transmissions.
- Hurricane was absolutely an in-house production which used steel and aluminium panels over the wooden frame.
- The car performed neatly at all times and offered a rattle free ride with its reassuring powerful brakes.
Along with the Hurricane, they continued to build Typhoon, Tempest, Lancaster etc. Out of them, it was Hurricane that managed to sell 2,606 pieces. Hurricane DHC – Armstrong Siddeley was largely popular for its beautiful design and smooth drive. It would smoothly cruise at 60mph. The best part of this car was that it would have excellent oil pressure as well as the temperature at a majority of the times.
Things to check while buying this rare beauty:
There is no greater joy in this world for a car fanatic than to own a classic and drive it leisurely. But when it comes to buying you need to be careful about certain pointers:
- It is needless to say that the car has to be in a good condition.
- It should ideally have a spare wheel along with a wheel changing kit.
- The vendor must have kept a record of its usage and maintenance history (Right from the date of manufacture till date).
- Check specifically for the maintenance manual.
- Take a close look at the odometer that displays the miles to get a rough idea of how long and how far the car has been used.
- Seek for the permission and get a small test ride. You would know if it drives as excellent as it looks.
Around 1953, the production of the 16hp and18hp ranged convertibles ceased. However, it was 1960 that witnessed a total shutdown in car production of the Hurricane DHC – Armstrong Siddeley. It was because Armstrong went back to concentrate on what he was best at doing – aero engines.

It happened. It's over.
Alabama's incredible streak of college football dominance was ended in Jordan-Hare Stadium on November 30th, 2013. It truly was an incredible football game that ended in a truly remarkable fashion. If you've only seen the last play of the game, I encourage you to watch the entire game. If you don't have time to watch the whole game watch the fourth quarter, it's worth 15 minutes of your life.
Florida State, the most dominant team in college football this year, has to beat Duke, a team that is having an incredible season for Duke's standards but is undoubtedly undermanned and outmatched against the Seminoles, in order to finish their season undefeated. FSU is currently a 29 point favorite in this game. It is safe to assume that Florida State will be playing in this year's national championship game.
The remaining spot in the title game will be between the SEC champion and Ohio State.
Auburn, after winning the SEC championship will have defeated ranked opponents Texas A&M, Ole Miss, Georgia, #1 ranked Alabama, and the #5 ranked SEC East champion Missouri. Their only loss will have come to the LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge on a cold rainy night in September. LSU was ranked 6th at the time of the game and is currently ranked 15th.
If Missouri wins in Atlanta, they will have defeated ranked opponents Georgia, Florida, Ole Miss, Texas A&M, and the #3 ranked SEC West Champion Auburn. Missouri's only blemish will be an overtime loss to South Carolina that was the result of a missed field goal. South Carolina was ranked 21st at the time, but has not lost a game since then and is now ranked 8th.
And finally Ohio State. Their ranked competition will have included Northwestern, Wisconsin, and Michigan State. Wisconsin and Michigan State are great teams. Michigan State's defense is stout, allowing only 11.6 points per game and they are currently ranked third in scoring defense and first in rushing and overall defense. Wisconsin was having a great year before losing to a bad Penn State team at home. Northwestern, however, has struggled severely this season. Before last week against Illinois, the wildcats had not won a game since September 21st, two weeks before their matchup against the Buckeyes.
Bottom Line: An SEC schedule is much tougher than a Big Ten schedule. Auburn or Missouri would have nearly twice the victories against ranked teams that Ohio State would have.
This scenario is reminiscent of the late 2000s Boise State teams that ran the table in the Western Athletic Conference (WAC). In 2006 and 2009 the Broncos finished their seasons, postseason and all, undefeated. The Florida Gators, the 2006 national champions, lost in week 7 to Auburn. Why was Boise State not given the opportunity to play for the national championship? The answer is that the Broncos simply did not accumulate enough impressive wins to merit a national championship appearance. None of their regular season wins came against ranked teams. The BCS system simply determined that it would be neither fair nor just for the Broncos to get the nod over Florida, a team who faced 6 ranked opponents.
So what makes this year's Ohio State team different than the 2006 Broncos? One main factor is the conference affiliation of the Buckeyes. At the inception of the BCS in 1998, six conferences were given "Automatic Qualifying" status. The winner of an AQ conference was guaranteed a spot in an elite, BCS, bowl game. These conferences were selected on the premise that they were the strongest football conferences in the nation. The Big Ten, Big 12, Big East, SEC, ACC, and PAC-10 were the six conferences given this advantage. Ohio State is a member of the Big Ten, which, by the nature of the design of the BCS system, is favored to other non-AQ conferences such as the WAC. The landscape of college football has changed dramatically in the past 15 years.
In 2006, the tides of college football began to turn. Before then, the six AQ conferences were frequently represented in the national title game. Florida State, Oklahoma, Miami, Ohio State, USC, and Texas won BCS championships between the time of inception up to 2006. Each of the past 7 years, however, the title has been captured by a member of the Southeastern Conference. Except for the dissolution of the Big East and the formation of the AAC, the AQ statuses of the conferences has not changed at all in 15 years.
As a college football fan, I'm becoming concerned. Members of the Big Ten, AAC, and ACC, clearly the weakest of the six AQ conferences have no incentive to schedule tough games to prove that they belong in the National Championship game. The current organization of the system will place them in the title game as long as they don't lose. In fact, this system encourages AQ-conference teams to schedule the easiest opponents possible.
Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Florida, Georgia, Texas A&M, Missouri, and any other SEC team with national title aspirations must face challenge after challenge. Virtually every easy opponent on the schedule is straddled by ranked opponents on either side. If you don't believe me, look for yourself. A single loss, no matter the margin, significantly decreases their chances at a national championship.
The BCS should be promoting competition and encouraging teams to prove themselves during the season so that they may EARN a spot in the National Championship Game instead of encouraging teams to take no risks so that they will remain unbeaten and can retain a higher ranking when other teams stumble against serious opponents in an attempt to prove their worth.
Ohio State has had one legitimate challenge this season thus far, and they won the football game. Is this more impressive than beating 5 ranked teams, including #1 Alabama and top 5 Missouri at a neutral site, but losing to the #6 LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge in week 4? As a competitor and a fan of competition, I believe the answer is no.
