A forum for users of any of my texts but really for anyone interested in interpersonal communication, the fundamentals of human communication, and public speaking.
A forum for users of any of my texts but really for anyone interested in interpersonal communication, the fundamentals of human communication, and public speaking.
Communication Strategies: Feedback
Feedback may come from you or from others. When you send a message—say, in speaking to another person—you also hear yourself. As you type in an email or text message, you also see what you've typed. That is, you get feedback from your own messages: you hear what you say, you feel the way you move, and you see what you write.
In addition to this self-feedback, you get feedback from others. This feedback can take many forms. A frown or a smile, a yea or a nay, a pat on the back or a punch in the mouth are all types of feedback. Sometimes feedback is easy to identify, but sometimes it isn't. Part of the art of effective communication is to discern feedback and adjust your messages on the basis of that feedback.
Each feedback opportunity presents you with choices along at least the following five dimensions: positive–negative, person focused–message focused, immediate–delayed, low monitored–high monitored, and supportive–critical. To use feedback effectively, you need to make educated choices along these dimensions.
< Positive–Negative. Feedback may be positive (you pay a compliment or pat someone on the back) or negative (you criticize someone or scowl). Positive feedback tells the speaker that he or she is on the right track and should continue communicating in essentially the same way. Negative feedback tells the speaker that something is wrong and that some adjustment should be made.
< Person Focused–Message Focused. Feedback may center on the person ("You're sweet" or "You have a great smile"). Or it may center on the message ("Can you repeat that number?" or "Your argument is a good one").
< Immediate–Delayed. In interpersonal situations, feedback is often sent immediately after the message is received; you smile or say something in response almost simultaneously with your receiving the message. In other communication situations, however, the feedback may be delayed. Instructor evaluation questionnaires completed at the end of a course provide feedback long after the class began.
< Low-Monitoring–High-Monitoring Feedback. Feedback varies from the spontaneous and totally honest reaction (low-monitored feedback) to the carefully constructed response designed to serve a specific purpose (high-monitored feedback). In most interpersonal situations, you probably give feedback spontaneously; you allow your responses to show without any monitoring. At other times, however, you may be more guarded, as when your boss asks you how you like your job.
< Supportive–Critical. Supportive feedback accepts the speaker and what the speaker says. It occurs, for example, when you console another, encourage him or her to talk, or otherwise confirm the person's definition of self. Critical feedback, on the other hand, is evaluative; it's judgmental. When you give critical feedback (whether positive or negative), you judge another's performance—as in, for example, coaching someone learning a new skill.
Of course, these categories are not exclusive. Feedback does not have to be either critical or supportive; it can be both. For example, in talking with someone who is trying to become a more effective interviewer, you might critically evaluate a practice interview but also express support for the effort. Similarly, you might respond to a friend's question immediately and then after a day or two elaborate on your response. Because each situation is unique, it's difficult to offer specific suggestions for making your feedback more effective. But, with some adjustments for the specifics of the situation, the following guides might prove helpful:
< Focus on the behavior or the message rather than the motives behind the message or behavior. Say, for example, "You forgot my birthday" rather than "You don't love me."
< If your feedback is largely negative, try to begin with something positive. There are always positives if you look hard enough. The negatives will be much easier to take, after hearing some positives.
< Ask for feedback on your feedback, for example, say "Does this make sense?" "Do you understand what I want our relationship to be?"
< When you're the recipient of feedback, be sure to show your interest in feedback. This is vital information that will help you improve whatever you're doing. Encourage the feedback giver. Be open to hearing this feedback. Don't argue; don't be defensive.
< Check your perceptions. Do you understand the feedback? Ask questions. Not all feedback is easy to understand; after all, a wink, a backward head nod, or a smile can each signal a variety of different messages. When you don't understand the meaning of the feedback, ask for clarification (nondefensively, of course). Paraphrase the feedback you've just received to make sure you both understand it: "You'd be comfortable taking over the added responsibilities if I went back to school?"

I need to extract the text from a document with lots lines like this:
The lines always begin with whitespace, then there is 1 word, with or without 1 or more hyphens, and the line always ends with a number.
Code: Select all
vesico-umbilicalis 1
vesico-ureteraler 1
vorkehren 1

All I need is the word.
I'll need TextPipe to extract the words and save them to a text file.
Each word is on its own line and will have its own line in the text file.
Please give me a starting point, it cannot be that difficult, but I just don't get it.
Thanks a lot!

Chesterfield College principal Trevor Clay, who is battling to mitigate the impact of up to job losses on staff and students, has revealed why he believes redundancies are necessary and unavoidable.
Mr Clay told the Derbyshire Times how the college has experienced a reduction in the number of 16-18 year-old full-time students and has seen an increase in demand for training from businesses for their staff and apprentices leading to a need for different types of college staff.
In addition, he claims Government cutbacks, contributing to a £4m college shortfall, have reduced public funding which has been further reduced for the college because of its lower levels of 16 to 18 year-olds.
Mr Clay said: "Redundancies have come about as a result of falling numbers of full-time 16 to 18 year-old students which has reduced the need for full-time staff.
"But we're growing with employers wanting employees up-skilling and training and we're delivering education for a different type of person so our staff has to be reshaped."
The college originally planned to introduce 70 job losses but has since claimed to have reshaped its plans with a reduced figure of 43 job cuts by successfully introducing voluntary redundancies and re-deployment.
But he claims £13m Sheffield City Region contracts to deliver training for employers could mean 100 new staff openings of a different type in the future with redeployment options.
Mr Clay also offered assurances that a reduction in the numbers of full time students means will allow the college to keep delivering the same range of quality courses.
However, changing Government policy is expected to mean that students aged over 24 will be expected to pay full fees.
Some have criticised the decision to bring in job cuts after the college recently underwent a revamp with a £3m reception area which was part-funded but Mr Clay feels this will attract students and help retain staff.
He said: "There is a need for the college to be attractive and functional to keep attracting students. We think it's necessary to provide and maintain a first class facility for years."
University and College Union members held a strike protest on Thursday, June 6, and further strike action is planned for June 13 and 14.

VH Dissector Pro 4.7
Old versionsSee all
The VH Dissector combines the power of cadaver dissection with the technology of virtual reality. It is based on the National Library of Medicine's Visible Human Project and was developed by the team of scientists at the University of Colorado that acquired the specimens and images that comprise the Visible Human DataSets™.
The program is a portable resource that enhances the cadaver dissection experience with views and combinations of anatomic structures unavailable in the real world.
It also provides users that have little or no access to cadavers with a virtual body containing over 2000 anatomic structures they can explore and learn from in a manner similar to cadaver dissection. The VH Dissector is a reference resource for life-long learning.

ET Now: Your sales growth this quarter has come in better than estimates. How did you manage that?
Anant Goenka: Overall we have been largely focussing a lot more on the passenger segment which has grown quite well for us. We have seen over 20% growth in our two-wheeler, car and SUV categories, that has aided large amount of growth.
In addition, the OE segment is also growing quite fast. We are finding good demand coming in from the MHCV players. Both of these have helped in relatively better growth for us.
ET Now: What is the outlook on sales given the kind of competition that you are seeing from Chinese players?
Anant Goenka: Going forward I think sales this year should be a little bit better. In fact, the year gone by, we have seen large slowdown in the export market primarily because of Chinese players as well as some amount of radialisation that has taken place but going forward. I think export sales has plateaued to relatively low level now so going forward, I think growth will be good. OEM demand is very good.
Replacement things are looking a little bit good. So I think growth this year in volume terms should be better than the year gone by.
ET Now: Could you broadly outline how much of your current demand is coming from replacement market and how much of your demand is coming from OEM?
Anant Goenka: About 60% of our sales comes in from the replacement market. About 25% to 27% from the OEM segment and the balance 15% comes in from exports.
ET Now: If rubber prices have gone higher, why have tyre companies cut prices?
Anant Goenka: Rubber prices generally have been coming down over the past year. So large part of the raw material price drop has been passed on to consumers. It has been only in the last one month that we have seen a sharp increase in rubber prices and that has happened post facto the price drops that have happened.
ET Now: Now you would be forced to increase prices because rubber prices have gone higher?
Anant Goenka: Very difficult to say whether we will be able to increase prices at this point of time. It really depends on competitive pressures that are there. What we are working towards is continuously improving cost, looking at improving our product mix towards more and more profitable categories. I said that sales is looking positive, so we are looking at all of these measures.
I would say price increase is something really dependent on how competition is reacting, what are the market forces making us do.
ET Now: While your top line growth may be okay, there is pressure on profits as well as margins. Do you expect pressure on your PAT as well as margins to continue, or do you think it could ease off in the next few quarters?
Anant Goenka: The year gone by generally has been a good year. We have moved from about 11.5% EBITDA to now about 14.5% EBITDA. That is nearly a 3% increase in this year. Going forward we should continue to see in the short term good margins, in the longer term there can be a little bit of pressure.
It is very difficult to say what is going to happen to raw material. This kind of spurt was not expected, there has been a sudden shortage in supply because of drought conditions.
There is a view that by end of May-early June onwards supply of rubber should improve once rains come in. So we will keep our fingers crossed and hope that raw material prices stay down.
ET Now: There is a belief in the market which says that the pricing power never lies with an auto ancillary company, it never lies with the supplier, it is always with the OEM. Who is currently enjoying pricing power?
Anant Goenka: On the OEM side, first off all, it is about 25% of our sales. It is a relatively smaller share of our sales with OEMs. There are advantages of after sales as well as some amount of benefit that a consumer will replace the tyre that he sees in an OEM vehicle. There is a strategic marketing advantage of supplying to them.
Also, they buy in large quantities. So the margins that are supplied to the OEMs are in lower margins. However, our supplies to most OEMs are fixed based at an index level.
If raw material prices do go up, the pricing to OEMs automatically go up and vice versa. With respect to the replacement market, it is an openly competitive market. It depends on your own brand stature as well as your distribution and other factors that will depend on your pricing power in the replacement segment.
ET Now: What is the way out, considering you are saying that medium term pricing is going to be under pressure? What is the strategy to combat this all?
Anant Goenka: What we are looking at is focusing more and more on the more profitable categories. For us we are finding that the two wheeler segment is where we have a very strong brand. We are able to command higher pricing and we set up a new plant which has just come on steam in February of this year.
With a new capacity coming in, we will be able to supply more and more in the more profitable category, which will therefore result in some amount of diversification and management of margins as well.
ET Now: Cost measures have helped your margin expansion, but those cost measures and advantage of raw material price will not be there this year. What happens now?
Anant Goenka: For quarter one, we are relatively secure. We have been buying a fair amount of raw material, we are covered for about the next month and a half to two months.
Quarter two, there could be some pressure, quarter three onwards what it really depends on is that our capacities from the new plants of Halol, which is a passenger car capacity, as well as in Nagpur, where we have set up a two wheeler capacity, those will start kicking in. That should have some amount of positive impact on profitability in my view.
ET Now: Are we to assume that FY17 sales growth would largely be a function of volume growth, because pricing will not be as strong as you have already indicated?
Anant Goenka: As I said, there has been some amount of price correction that has happened in FY16. There will be some amount of deflationary pressure as well, going on to this year, not because of price drops, but because you will be comparing year on year from last year to this year.
Therefore, while volume growth may be better than last year, last year was at about 7-8% kind of growth, value growth may still be lower because of the price decisions that were taken in the last one year.

text: Blues stepping up bid to sign Jones Dec 31 2005 Delme Parfitt, South Wales Echo CARDIFF Blues have moved their bid to sign Stephen Jones on a stage further by meeting the Wales fly-half for talks this week. The Echo has discovered that Jones met up with Blues coach Dai Young while home from France on a Christmas break to discuss a possible move to the Arms Park. As revealed in these pages last week, the Blues have made the British Lion stand-off their number one target and it's understood they are ready to put a contract worth £200,000 a year on the table in an attempt to end his exile in French rugby with Clermont Auvergne. And Jones, whose two-year Clermont deal expires this coming summer, is believed to be ready to return to his homeland amid fears his ability to take a full part in Wales' World Cup build-up will be jeopardised if he stays put. However, the Blues look set for a fierce tug-of-war with Llanelli Scarlets over Jones' services after the Stradey Park region also held talks with their former player over the festive period.

History of World War II
Kamis, 13 November 2014 Add Comment Edit
World War II was a terrible armed conflict. The war lasted almost throughout the world between 1939 and 1945. It raises a lot of casualties, damage to infrastructure, public facilities, and material losses. Many people become disabled.
Opposite sides in the war
The first party consisted of Germany, Italy and Japan, the so-called Axis powers. The second party is allied powers, France, Britain, the United States, the Soviet Union, and China. The war caused by Germany's defeat in World War I, intending to avenge the defeat. They harmed the Treaty of Versailles.
Germany led by Adolf Hitler, the leader of the Socialist (NSDAP) of the National Socialist German Workers Party or Nazi party. He was very totalitarian. Ultra-nationalist ideology and anti-Semitic.
Italy led by Benito Mussolini, the fascist dictator of Italy. He collaborated with Hitler's secret Italian-German agreement in the Tripartite pact. It will lead to the formation of the Roman-Berlin Axis. The added strength of Asian countries, Japan.
The beginning of the war
War begins with an attack Germany to Austria. It happened in March 1938. Furthermore, Hitler began to invade Poland on September 1, 1939. This triggered a reaction from allies, especially Britain and France. They declared war on Germany.
In April 1940, Hitler's tactics "blitzkrieg" in ordering the invasion of Norway and the occupation of the main airfield Oslo and Stavanger. At the same time, Germany sent warships to the port of Copenhagen and was introduced to the Jutland peninsula. Danish occupation was necessary to the security of German communications with Norway. The Soviet Union occupied the Baltic states in June 1940, and annexed them in August 1940. Italy, a member of the Axis, entered the war in June 1940. From August 13 to October 31, 1940, the Nazi air attack on the British known as the "Battle of Britain "campaign.
Germany to do stupid things. It happened when Germany invaded the Soviet Union on June 22, 1941. That means that Germany violated the German-Soviet pact. The goal is to master the Baltic.
The events that led to Russia's joining the bloc allies. On December 7, 1941, Japan (one of the Axis powers) bombed Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. United States immediately declared war on Japan. On December 11, Germany and Italy declared war on the United States. Instead, America is determined to avenge the attack. This is called the Pacific war.
Americans took all his strength to attack Japan. United States Navy amphibious use or to scroll through the island chain to the Japanese troops, while ground forces smaller scale cooperate with Chinese and English in Asia. Meanwhile Germany also began to experience defeat by the British in North Africa.
Army Germans surrendered in May 1943. Hitler finally despair he committed suicide on 30 April 1945. Delivery of the final German forces was signed on May 8th. The war had officially ended in Europe.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki Atomic Bomb
On August 6, released the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Eighty thousand people were burned to death or as a result of radiation, and seventy thousand people more seriously affected. And on August 9, the US dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki. Japan finally surrendered to sekutu.perang concludes with the Potsdam agreement in 1945. With the rapidly changing map of the world and laid the foundations of a new historical period in which the old Europe give hegemony to the two new superpowers are consolidated to and after the war: the United States and the Union Soviet. It was then began the era of the cold war. []

Aluminum is one of the most used metals in today's society – Aluminium Corner Extrusion in Top it can be found across a number of industries, such as construction and commercial, and in a number of applications, such as beverage cans and appliances. When choosing a manufacturer of aluminium extrusion for supplying the metal that you use in your workplace, however, it is important that you carefully consider which one will be best for your needs.
The manufacturer will begin by removing the aluminium from deep within the earth's crust (either as bauxite ore or feldspar). Often, the Bayer's method, Wohler's method or Hall Heroult method is chosen to remove the metal in its molten form. It is then hardened and moulded into whatever shape the manufacturer desires. When the aluminium is extracted from the earth in its solid form, Aluminum Extrusions For Sale it will be passed through a number of mechanical processes that are designed to give the metal its desired shape. These processes include: rolling, drawing, forging, spinning, piercing and extrusion.
Regardless of whether aluminium has been found in its molten or solid form, the manufacturer will then pass it through either a hot working or cold working process to prepare it for their customers. When using the hot working process (the most popular of the two), a billet will be heated to a temperature of over 79 degrees Celsius, which will allow the aluminium to be easily distorted and placed into its desired shape.
The reason for the popularity of the hot working process over the cold working one can be fully realized when you compare aluminium extrusion to squeezing toothpaste out of its tube. It is much easier to extrude the metal when it is malleable, meaning that it must have been heated to a certain temperature.
Finally, the aluminium will pass through an extrusion and drawing process that runs almost parallel to each other. This is the final step in the whole extrusion process and is the step that gives the metal its entire shape. Deep drawing, for example, is used give the metal a cup, conical tapered, cylinder and seamless tube shape. For less curved shapes, Aluminum Extrusion Slider the drawing process is skipped.
Once you are satisfied with the processes and methods utilized by a potential manufacturer of aluminium extrusions, you can begin submitting your orders with them. If, after your first delivery, you are still satisfied with the manufacturer based on the promptness of the order being filled and the quality of the aluminium that you receive, you can continue the relationship.
Aluminium Corner Extrusion in Top?
When double glazing first became a popular window choice in the 1960s, most frames were made of aluminum. Aluminum remained the most popular choice for framing double glazing windows through the mid-1980s, when it held over 60% of the market. Since the introduction of PVC window framing, the market share of aluminum framed windows has dropped steadily. As of 2003, less than 17% of windows sold were aluminum framed. There are many reasons for the drop in popularity - and still some good reasons for choosing aluminum over PVC or wood frames.
The early popularity of aluminum was based on price and convenience. Aluminum was far less expensive than wood, the only other choice for window framing in the early years of double glazing. In addition, aluminum is easily extruded in the shapes and lengths needed to frame windows of any shape or size. It's strong, durable and very close to maintenance free.
Aluminum frames do have one significant drawback, however. Aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat and cold. It's such a good conductor, in fact, that in colder temperatures, frost often forms on interior surfaces of the windows close to the aluminum joints. The end result is windows that are significantly less able to conserve heat and energy than those framed in other materials.
PVCu was introduced in the mid-80s as a choice for framing double glazing windows, and immediately began to climb in popularity. When compared with aluminum frames, PVCu was less expensive, and more energy conservative. It can't match the strength of aluminum, however, and there are security concerns with its use. In addition, the introduction of 'thermal breaks' reduces the heat conductivity (measured in U values) of aluminum framed windows significantly. By fitting a less conductive material between the panes of the window as a sort of 'bridge' between the glass, manufacturers can bring the U value of aluminum framed double glazed windows within conservation standards.
The main selling points for aluminum window frames, then, were:
1. Strength - aluminum framed windows are far less prone to warping. The aluminum withstands weather well, needs no painting and forms strong, rigid window frames that will fit for far longer than wood frames.
2. Cost - aluminum frames are far less expensive than wood frames. They are easier to manufacture, and the material is less expensive to begin with. On the other hand, the introduction of PVC has largely negated the advantage of cost. Far lower in price, and with more efficient heating, PVC has become the material of choice for framing double glazing windows.
3. Ease of maintenance - As opposed to wood, which is subject to warping and decay and needs repainting every 3-5 years, aluminum is virtually maintenance free. It never needs painting, doesn't rot or warp, and is rigid and strong enough to bear the load of window lintels with minimal reinforcement.
4. Security - Because of the tight fit possible with aluminum framed double glazed windows, they were - and still are - the choice where security is a paramount concern. It's very difficult to 'pop' an aluminum framed window from its frame if it's properly fitted.
Scrap Aluminum Grades - How to Sort and Clean Scrap Aluminum to Maximize Its Value
Aluminum garage doors have many benefits with only one major disadvantage: They dent easily. Besides for this disadvantage, they are a smart and economical choice. When shopping around, make sure you know your garage measurements as this will help in determining the price.
1) Do Not Rust
2) Low Maintenance
3) Great Price- a good door will cost about $500 to $800. If you choose one with insulation then you can expect to pay more, about $1,000-$1,500.
4) Lightweight- Because they are lightweight, they last longer in that they put less strain on the garage mechanisms.
5) Easy Installation- These doors are easy to install because they are lightweight. This also will help cut down on the installation costs as it takes less time for the contractor to install.
6) Recyclable- Aluminum is recyclable so when you replace your garage door you will be able to recycle the old one which is helpful to the environment.
7) Paintable- Want to change your garage door color without buying a new one? With aluminum it's possible as you will be able to paint the surface.
8) Great color selection- Vast selection of colors.
9) Energy Efficient- Good quality aluminum garage doors usually come with a more than sufficient amount of insulation added making them an energy efficient choice.
10) Long lasting- With good maintenance, these doors can last a lifetime.
It is also important to make sure to have the proper safety features installed to prevent serious injury. Having your garage door installed by a professional will help ensure not only that the proper safety features are installed but that the entire door is installed properly.

The much awaited Baahubali 2 is all set to hit the theatres tomorrow. Here's why you shouldn't miss this visual grandeur!
The much awaited movie of the year is less than one day from embracing the theatres. It is touted to be the biggest ever motion film of Indian cinema and it's also a matter of days for box office records to stumble upon, post the release of the extravaganza.
Though it is more or less sure that most of the audience would reserves their seats, grab their share of pop-corn and catch up with the movie in theatres, we still tried to bring out some strong reasons to give Baahubali 2: The Conclusion a definite try at the theatres.
1. Why Kattappa Killed Baahubali?
The entire nation wants to know as the same has been treated as a national issue on a lighter note. Kattappa who would be caught between loyalty towards the King and affection towards Baahubali, could clearly be torn in two pieces and the loyalist in him, who follows the King's order would execute Baahubali's death. But what transpires him?
If Amarendra Baahubali is the King of Mahishmathi, then who else could order Kattappa? Or would Amarendra Baahubali be succeeded by Bhallala Deva, who could have passed the order to Kattappa?
2. Grand Visuals
Undoubtedly, an abundant eye feast is expected as the trailer itself comprised of some spectacular shots. Be it the design of an elephant carrying the bridge or the aerial view shot of Mahishmathi Kingdom or even the slider where Prabhas is seen gliding down.
Songs such as Hamsa Naava and Saahore can be deemed to be made on a grand scale with rich backdrop and lighting.
3. Confrontation Scenes
This will be epic & massive. Bhallala Deva, who would be seen taming a ferocious bull in Baahubali - The beginning and Amarendra Baahubali's son, Mahendra Baahubali who too looks extremely well-built, will lock horns for a heroic face off.
Either of them could easily pose a tight contest to each other which will generate a lot of goosebumps as it's the question of pride for the antagonist and a chance for the protagonist to avenge his father's death
4. Why Bhalla Wants To Kill His Mother?
In a teaser which was released during the audio launch, Bijjala Deva asks his son, Bhalla about his possible intentions to slay his mother, Sivagami.
The initial scene of Baahubali: The Beginning also shows Sivagami escaping the clutches of her own battalion which seems to be controlled by Bhalla. Could that possibly be due to Sivagami's positive nepotism towards Baahubali?
5. Devasena-Baahubali's Romance
If the first part boasted of some sensual sequences and song between Avantika and Shivudu, then wait for the second part which will provide the actual feel of romance in various dimensions.
The supposed two way love track which involves two characters with beauty and brain could be seen in interesting song sequences of being orchestrated with limited dance and some sword fencing moves.
6. Devasena's Warrior Skills
Devasena would not just be seen as a glam doll who could pierce the heart of her King, Baahubali, but also as the fighting queen who could pierce the opposition with her skill and warrior ability.
The physical personality of the actress too, complements the characterization of Devasena.
7. Amarendra Baahubali As The Majestic King
It rendered instant goosebumps when the trailer begun with Amarendra Baahubali taking oath as the King of Mahishmathi. How electrifying would it be to witness Baahubali's maximum dynamism in taking oath as a king, with SS Rajamouli's taking and Keeravani's background music? A tailor-made shot for the actor's fans.
8. Exhilarating War Episodes
The first part of the franchise proved the capability of Rajamouli in terms of executing war sequences. Be it the formation, equipment's used, ideation and the visual effects, all culminated to form one intriguing war sequence.
The second part could easily be thrice as that of the first part's output as the expectations are riding high and that the war sequences would involve an epic clash between Mahendra Baahubali and Bhallala Deva which infuses more fervour and excitement into the scene.

Join Maxim Jago for an in-depth discussion in this video Adding rough audio effects, part of EPK Editing: 2 Creative Editing and Fine-Tuning.
…Before I can meaningfully move forward with working on my content,…I'm going to need to make some very basic audio adjustments.…I'm a big believer in leaving audio work until the very end of the workflow,…and that's partly because it's so easy to break.…It's really easy to get it wrong.…And because you can't usually see when there's a problem,…you just have to play back in real time to identify it.…It's so, so easy to miss when you've made a mistake.…Nonetheless, there are some changes that you're going to need to make just to…be able to handle your footage.…
For a start, this music video is naturally attenuated to…probably something like minus 0.3 DB.…It's fully attenuated in order to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio…between the music and the background noise.…So if I play a little bit, well, on the levels here, you'll see the problem.…It's just passively loud, and I can't work with this audio and…also hear the contents of the interview.…Well, in many ways, that's not the end of the world because I'm pretty much set on…
In the previous installment of EPK Editing Workflows, Maxim Jago showed you how to ingest media and build a basic assembly edit from your favorite shots. Here you'll take that rough cut and fine-tune it using a number of industry-standard trimming techniques that work in just about every nonlinear editing system. You'll learn how to take your edited sequence from an assembly to a precise cut, with temporary effects and transitions that will help you nail down the final visual look of your video.
- Establishing the starting point
- Stripping out content from the assembly cut
- Editing quickly with keyboard shortcuts
- Advanced trimming techniques
- Trimming with the JKL technique
- Adding placeholder transitions and effects
- Achieving picture lock

When your Saturday morning dawns late, accompanied by a face-assaulting headache, puffy eyes and a stomach that writes checks its proverbial ass is pretty intent on cashing, brunch offers a ray of shimmering hope through the hangover cloud. If you want -- actually, if you need -- to eat the first meal of your day in a space just slightly brighter than a closet at an hour no earlier than noon, the Cock and Bull is the place to be.
The Lakewood pub (nay, institution) looks like it could've survived the Great London Fire of 1666, though the food 'n' booze is as fresh as whatever they're serving at the Uptown yuppie gastropub of the moment. Brunchers have the option of availing themselves of the full menu, plus specials -- salmon, burgers, cheese plates and the like -- but the affordable and diverse brunch offerings should help keep last night's liquor down just fine.
While the only real cure for a hangover is a lengthy and luxurious nap, a big, steaming plate of food pile works pretty well until you can figure out where you left your underwear and scrape together some change for a cab ride home from wherever it is you woke up. "But Andrea, you haven't yet explained what food pile is!" you're saying to yourself. I am saying to you, "Let me tell you about food pile."
Food pile is a pile of food. Nachos are a food pile. A loaded salad is a food pile. A hamburger is food pile. Anything where you can take a big stab with a fork or massive bite and end up with pretty much every flavor on your plate in your mouth at once is food pile. And that's what my Brooklyn Cadillac Fried Egg Sandwich was. Texas Toast, fried eggs, bacon, ham, maybe some avocado and sharp cheddar, heck I don't know. It was food pile! Every bite was satisfying and taste-packed.
Man o' the Hour, ever more dietarily discerning than me, opted for the huevos rancheros and looked like he was having a pretty good time with them, but I am not totally sure of this because I had two Bloody Marys and watching him construct fat, egg-filled rolls of salsa and tortilla goodness was making me dizzy. Please allow me to advise you: If you intend to have two Bloody Marys at the Cock and Bull, bring a designated driver. By 1 p.m., I was pretty well buzzed. Spicy and well-garnished with a salted glass, Cock and Bull 'Marys are nothing to sniff at and plenty to slurp up.

Cock and Bull prices are reasonable, which is nice considering how much money you probably spent at the bar last night (friend, if tequila shots sound like a good idea, tequila shots are the worst possible idea.) While the wait staff can be stretched if a big crowd comes in, they do their best to accommodate everyone -- our waitress even slipped our food order in before that of the giant group next to us. Food pile was promptly delivered and devoured in the soothing darkness of one of Lakewood's finest eating and drinking establishments. This Cock and Bull story is, indeed, no load of baloney.

The aikido we do (coming from Tomiki Sensei) was much influenced by Kano's ideas and interactions with Tomiki. I've heard it said that one of Jigoro Kano's pet theories about physical education is that large motions are more appropriate for beginners and small motions are more appropriate for experts. (Incidentally, Funakoshi said the same thing about karate-do.) So, it would make sense that our preference for large flowing motion and projection was intended by the old masters to be appropriate for beginners. But at some point you have to move beyond the beginner exercises (I think we generally have a problem with this in a lot of ways in our aikido, but that's a post for another day).
Again, any of the material in aikido can be done short and fast and throwing into control instead of projection, but in Tomiki's and Ohba's curriculum (unsoku, then junana, then koryu-no-kata), one of the first places one sees much of this idea is Koryu Dai Ni - the second advanced kata. The first three techniques sort of state the theme of the exercise...
- #1 - katatedori katagatame - is an interesting shoulder rotation trick in order to get sufficient motion without moving the feet much. It is also a controlling action rather than a projection idea.
- #2 - ryotedori gyakugamaeate - is an interesting hip shift offbalance to induce uke to move his feet so that tori can step into uke's space.
- #3 - ryotedori iriminage - is an interesting direction change to solve the problem of when tori is unable to make uke's feet move on #2 .
Things you see here include innovative ways to induce kuzushi when tori cannot move his feet much. I like to play these three techniques with uke and tori working in a taped-off section of the mat that is about 2 feet by 6 feet. I like to designate the rest of the mat outside the working area as "poisonous acidic lava boiling over razor-sharp stalagmites" so obviously tori's goal is not to step in the lava. ;-) Adds some psychological incentive to try to figure out how to control uke's balance immediately upon contact without moving around too much!
And once you get the feel of working these first three techniques with that confined-space, small footwork, powerful hip-switch feel, it is fun to begin to spread that feel out into the ushirowaza and yokomenuchi attacks in the rest of Koryu Dai Ni and from there into the rest of your aikido.

Thirty years ago, the Utah Department of Health reported a total of 17 persons living with AIDS in Utah. Those numbers grew dramatically as the AIDS crisis unfolded here and across the nation. Since the advent of effective drug treatments, many now see HIV and AIDS as manageable—which may be why HIV infection rates are on the rise again. On this edition of RadioActive, you'll hear from Charles Frost of the Utah HIV Planning Group, Tyler Fisher of the Utah AIDS Foundation, and Lynn Beltran, who supervises the STD and HIV programs for the Salt Lake County Health Department.

While you've been able to backup your messages to your local storage for some time now, an official cloud storage option has been sorely absent. Until now.
Android users (sorry Apple fans) can now officially setup their WhatsApp er, app, to automatically back everything up to Google Drive.
If that's something you fancy doing (and it seems like a sensible choice to us) then here's what you'll need to do:
1. Check if you've already got it
It's a long shot on day one of the staggered update, but WhatsApp might have already updated on your device, with the new backup feature included. To see if that's the case, hit up 'Settings', 'Chats and calls', and see if there's a 'Chat backup' option listed.
If you can only see a 'Backup' option, then you're going to need to manually update the app.
3. Yo back up now and give a brother room
Once you've re-confirmed your WhatsApp phone number, you're ready for the most thrilling step yet.
WhatsApp should automatically present you with a screen which lets you select how often you want to backup your messages, and which Google account you want to use. A few taps later, and that's it, you're sorted.
To manually go back and change the frequency or account used, go to 'Settings', 'Chats and calls', and this time, you should see a 'Chat backup' option, which will let you make your changes.
You can also backup manually from this screen (there's a big green button, you can't miss it), and the next time you install WhatsApp from fresh on any device, you can simply select the Google Drive backup option at the setup screen, to have all your up-to-date messages injected into your device, straight from the cloud.

Siege of Sevastopol (1854–1855)
|Siege of Sevastopol
|Part of the Crimean War
Siege of Sevastopol by Franz Roubaud
|Commanders and leaders
|Casualties and losses
|Total casualties: 102,000 killed, wounded, and died from disease[8]
The siege of Sevastopol (at the time called in English the siege of Sebastopol) lasted from October 1854 until September 1855, during the Crimean War. The allies (French, Ottoman, and British) landed at Eupatoria on 14 September 1854, intending to make a triumphal march to Sevastopol, the capital of the Crimea, with 50,000 men. The 56-kilometre (35 mi) traverse took a year of fighting against the Russians. Major battles along the way were Alma (September 1854), Balaklava (October 1854), Inkerman (November 1854), Tchernaya (August 1855), Redan (September 1855), and, finally, Malakoff (September 1855). During the siege, the allied navy undertook six bombardments of the capital, on 17 October 1854; and on 9 April, 6 June, 17 June, 17 August, and 5 September 1855.
Sevastopol is one of the classic sieges of all time.[9] The city of Sevastopol was the home of the Tsar's Black Sea Fleet, which threatened the Mediterranean. The Russian field army withdrew before the allies could encircle it. The siege was the culminating struggle for the strategic Russian port in 1854–55 and was the final episode in the Crimean War.
During the Victorian Era, these battles were repeatedly memorialized. The siege of Sevastopol was the subject of Crimean soldier Leo Tolstoy's Sebastopol Sketches and the subject of the first Russian feature film, Defence of Sevastopol. The Battle of Balaklava was made famous by Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poem "The Charge of the Light Brigade" and Robert Gibb's painting The Thin Red Line. A panorama of the siege itself was painted by Franz Roubaud.
The Jamaican and English nurses who treated the wounded during these battles were much celebrated, most famously Mary Seacole and Florence Nightingale.

The allies (French, Ottoman, and British) landed at Eupatoria on 14 September 1854.[10] The Battle of the Alma (20 September 1854), which is usually considered the first battle of the Crimean War (1853–1856), took place just south of the River Alma in the Crimea.[11] An Anglo-French force under Jacques Leroy de Saint Arnaud and FitzRoy Somerset, 1st Baron Raglan defeated General Alexander Sergeyevich Menshikov's Russian army, which lost around 6,000 troops.[12]
Moving from their base at Balaklava at the start of October, French and British engineers began to direct the building of siege lines along the Chersonese uplands to the south of Sevastopol.[13] The troops prepared redoubts, gun batteries, and trenches.[14]
With the Russian army and its commander Prince Menshikov gone, the defence of Sevastopol was led by Vice Admirals Vladimir Alexeyevich Kornilov and Pavel Nakhimov, assisted by Menshikov's chief engineer, Lieutenant Colonel Eduard Totleben.[15] The military forces available to defend the city were 4,500 militia, 2,700 gunners, 4,400 marines, 18,500 naval seamen, and 5,000 workmen, totalling just over 35,000 men.
The Russians began by scuttling their ships to protect the harbour, then used their naval cannon as additional artillery and the ships' crews as marines.[16] Those ships deliberately sunk by the end of 1855 included Grand Duke Constantine, City of Paris (both with 120 guns), Khrabryi, Imperatritsa Maria, Chesma, Rostislav, and Yagondeid (all 84 guns), Kavarna (60 guns), Konlephy (54 guns), steam frigate Vladimir, steamboats Thunderer, Bessarabia, Danube, Odessa, Elbrose, and Krein.
By mid-October 1854, the Allies had some 120 guns ready to fire on Sevastopol; the Russians had about three times as many.[17]
On 5 October 1854 (old style date, 17 October new style)[a] the artillery battle began.[18] The Russian artillery first destroyed a French magazine, silencing their guns. British fire then set off the magazine in the Malakoff redoubt, killing Admiral Kornilov, silencing most of the Russian guns there, and leaving a gap in the city's defences. However, the British and French withheld their planned infantry attack, and a possible opportunity for an early end to the siege was missed.
At the same time, to support the Allied land forces, the Allied fleet pounded the Russian defences and shore batteries. Six screw-driven ships of the line and 21 wooden sail were involved in the sea bombardment (11 British, 14 French, and two Ottoman Turkish). After a bombardment that lasted over six hours, the Allied fleet inflicted little damage on the Russian defences and coastal artillery batteries while suffering 340 casualties among the fleet. Two of the British warships were so badly damaged that they were towed to the arsenal in Constantinople for repairs and remained out of action for the remainder of the siege, while most of the other warships also suffered serious damage due to many direct hits from the Russian coastal artillery. The bombardment resumed the following day, but the Russians had worked through the night and repaired the damage. This pattern would be repeated throughout the siege.
During October and November 1854, the battles of Balaclava[19] and Inkerman[20] took place beyond the siege lines. Balaclava gave the Russians a morale boost and convinced them that the Allied lines were thinly spread out and undermanned.[21] But after their defeat at Inkerman,[22] the Russians saw that the siege of Sevastopol would not be lifted by a battle in the field, so instead they moved troops into the city to aid the defenders. Toward the end of November, a winter storm ruined the Allies' camps and supply lines. Men and horses sickened and starved in the poor conditions.
While Totleben extended the fortifications around the Redan bastion and the Malakoff redoubt, British chief engineer John Fox Burgoyne sought to take the Malakoff, which he saw as the key to Sevastopol. Siege works were begun to bring the Allied troops nearer to the Malakoff; in response, Totleben dug rifle pits from which Russian troops could snipe at the besiegers. In a foretaste of the trench warfare that became the hallmark of the First World War, the trenches became the focus of Allied assaults.
The Allies were able to restore many supply routes when winter ended. The new Grand Crimean Central Railway, built by the contractors Thomas Brassey and Samuel Morton Peto, which had been completed at the end of March 1855[23] was now in use bringing supplies from Balaclava to the siege lines. The railroad delivered more than five hundred guns and plentiful ammunition.[23] The Allies resumed their bombardment on 8 April 1855 (Easter Sunday). On 28 June (10 July), Admiral Nakhimov died from a head wound inflicted by an Allied sniper.[24]
On 24 August (5 September) the Allies started their sixth and the most severe bombardment of the fortress. Three hundred and seven cannon fired 150,000 rounds, with the Russians suffering 2,000 to 3,000 casualties daily. On 27 August (8 September), thirteen Allied divisions and one Allied brigade (total strength 60,000) began the last assault. The British assault on the Great Redan failed, but the French, under General Mac-Mahon, managed to seize the Malakoff redoubt and the Little Redan, making the Russian defensive position untenable. By the morning of 28 August (9 September), the Russian forces had abandoned the southern side of Sevastopol.[8][25]
Although defended heroically and at the cost of heavy Allied casualties, the fall of Sevastopol would lead to the Russian defeat in the Crimean War.[1] Most of the Russian casualties were buried in Brotherhood cemetery in over 400 collective graves. The three main commanders (Nakhimov, Kornilov, and Istomin) were interred in the purpose-built Admirals' Burial Vault.

Fate of Sevastopol cannon[edit]
The British sent a pair of cannons seized at Sevastopol to each of several important cities in the Empire.[26][27] Additionally, several were sent to the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, and the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich. These cannon are now all kept at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst (renamed after the closing of RMA Woolwich shortly after the Second World War) and are displayed in front of Old College, next to cannon from Waterloo and other battles.
The cascabel (the large ball at the rear of old muzzle-loaded guns) of several cannon captured during the siege was said to have been used to make the British Victoria Cross, the highest award for gallantry in the British Armed Forces. However, Hancocks, the manufacturer, confirms that the metal is Chinese, not Russian, bronze. The cannons used are in the Firepower Museum in Woolwich and are clearly Chinese. There would be no reason why Chinese cannon would be in Sevastopol in the 1850s and it is likely that the VC guns were, in fact, British trophies from the China war in the 1840s held in the Woolwich repository. Though it had been suggested that the VCs should be made from Sevastopol cannons, it seems that in practice, they were not. Testing of medals which proved not to be of Russian bronze has given rise to stories that some Victoria Crosses were made of low grade material at certain times but this is not so - all Victoria Crosses have been made from the same metal from the start.
Bath Cannon[edit]
Was melted down in the Second World War.
Bearsden cannon[edit]
A cannon was found in the garden of a house in Bearsden in 2017. It was postulated it might be one of the two missing Glasgow cannon. (see https://www.milngavieherald.co.uk/news/history-buffs-solve-the-mystery-of-the-cannon-1-4407874)
Berwick cannon[edit]
Is kept at Fisher's Fort and recently underwent restoration by English Heritage. The cannon was made in 1826, and was given to Berwick in 1858. The cannon displays a Russian double-headed eagle on its barrel. The gun was the only one to survive the great scrappage of the Second World War in Berwick.
Melted down in Second World War.
Cambridge, Ontario, cannon[edit]
One cannon was sent to the city of Galt, Ontario, Canada (now renamed Cambridge), where it is still on display in Queen's Square with an inscription describing its origin, year of capture (1859), and year of installation (1862). It is known locally as "the Russian gun". In December 1864 the Russian gun arrived at the Galt railway station, where reports of the day claim it attracted "considerable attention". The gun was initially mounted on a wooden carriage and put on display in Queen's Square. In 1866, a group decided to cap off the town's Victoria Day celebrations with "a royal salute of 21 guns fired from the Russian gun". The gun was taken from Queen's Square to the top of the hill overlooking Dickson Park. In A part of our Past: Essays on Cambridge's history the story goes: "Mr. (William) Boge was assisted by Mr. James Armstrong, who attended to the ramming of the muzzle loading the gun, and by Mr. David Galletly who was working the vent of the gun. Three rounds had been safely fired when the powder for the fourth round was placed in the muzzle. Next came the wadding, which consisted of sod, with Mr. Boge and Mr. Armstrong ramming it home. Suddenly and unexpectedly a fearful roar rent the holiday air as the powder exploded prematurely."
The account goes on to say Boge and Armstrong were blown seven yards from the mouth of the gun. Both were disfigured. Three other people were injured in the blast including Galletly, whose hand was burned, and two boys who were bystanders. They were both struck in the face and cut by flying debris. The two men who died were both members of the Galt Fire Brigade. The cannon was left at the top of the hill in Dickson Park for several weeks before being returned to Queen's Square, never to be fired again.
In May 1910 the Daughters of the Empire had the Russian gun remounted on the concrete base where it sits today. [1]
Chelmsford cannon[edit]
The Chelmsford cannon was kept in the High Street between 1858 and 1937 and was then moved to a corner of the park. In 1908 some apprentices fired it, causing windows to be broken. It is now plugged.
Cheltenham cannon[edit]
Was melted down in Second World War.
Congleton cannon[edit]
The cannon arrived at Congleton Station on 14 June 1859 and was escorted into the town in an 'immense procession' led by five men who had fought in the Crimea war. At first the cannon was placed on a specially built platform situated either at the bottom of Moody Street on an open space now outside the Royal bank of Scotland or on the other side of the street in front of 'Mr Deakin's shop'. By 1871 it seems to have become an anachronism and the opening of the park seemed to be a suitable opportunity to move it to a mock fort emplacement at the top of the Park wood. During the Second World War the demand for metal led to a debate by the Town Council for the cannon to be donated to help the war effort.
Darlington cannon[edit]
The Darlington cannon is kept in South Park.
Derby cannon[edit]
Was melted down in Second World War.
Dundee cannon[edit]
Dundee is known to have refused a cannon when offered, because of the cost of mounting it.
Dunfermline cannon[edit]
Received a cannon but it was melted down during the Second World War.
Ely cannon[edit]
Ely keeps its cannon on Palace Green, west of the Cathedral. The inscription reads: 'Russian cannon captured during the Crimean War and presented to the people of Ely in 1860 by Queen Victoria to mark the creation of the Ely Rifle Volunteers'. The serial number is 8726
Evesham cannon[edit]
Evesham was given one in 1855. It is now housed in the Almonry Museum and Heritage Centre.
Georgetown, Guyana[edit]
Two Russian cannon were given to Georgetown and now sit outside the parliament building.
Gibraltar cannon[edit]
Four Russian guns were presented to Gibraltar in 1858.
Glasgow cannon[edit]
Was given 2 cannon. They were thought to be melted down in Second World War.
Halifax cannon[edit]
Two cannon were sent to Halifax. They are believe to have been melted down.
Hartlepool cannon[edit]
Kept on the Heugh Headland. The inscription says: 'The cannon was captured from the Russian Army at the Battle of Sebastopol during the Crimean War (1854-56). In 1857, the then Secretary of State, Lord Panmure, offered the cannon to Hartlepool Borough Council who gratefully accepted it. It was transported from London on the steam ship 'Margaret', at a total cost of £2.19s.3d and after a year's delay, arrived at Hartlepool in September 1858.'
Hereford cannon[edit]
Was melted down in Second World War.
Huntingdon cannon[edit]
The Huntingdon cannon was melted down during World War II, and is now replaced with a replica (made 1990).
Leominster cannon[edit]
Was melted down in Second World War.
Lichfield cannon[edit]
Melted down in Second World War.
Lisburn cannon[edit]
The inscription on the Lisburn cannon says: "A Russian cannon taken at Sebastopol during the Crimean War (1853 to March 1856). Presented to Lisburn by Admiral Henry Meynell (c.1785–1863) RN in 1858. Lisburn, Co. Antrim, Ireland."

Middlesbrough cannon[edit]
Its cannon is kept in Albert Park.
Monmouth cannon[edit]
Is on display at the Royal Monmouthshire Royal Engineers Museum, Monmouth, Wales.
Newry cannon[edit]
Known as: 'The Russian Trophy' it is kept on Bank Parade, Newry. It sits outside the Polish Consulate, pointing upriver. The barrel sports the Russian Eagle crest.
New South Wales[edit]
New South Wales received two cannons in recognition of the funds donated to the Patriotic Fund to assist the war effort. The two cannons are now in Centennial Park in Sydney. Originally, the flanked Governor Bourke's statue in The Domain in Sydney (near the old Bent Street entrance). They were relocated in 1920 to Centennial Park and mounted on a rise.
Nottingham cannon[edit]
Kept in Nottingham Arboretum.
Ontario cannon[edit]
Are displayed in Victoria Park, London (Ontario). There is an inscription which says the following: 'These cannon were used at the siege of Sebastopol and were brought to this country after the capture of that city by the British in 1855. Sir John Carling was instrumental in procuring these three pieces for this city. This gun is a British piece. The other two are Russian. This tablet was erected by the London and Middlesex Historical Society. 1907. Restored 1987'
Portsmouth cannon[edit]
Melted down in Second World War.
Preston cannon[edit]
The two Preston Cannon seemed to have survived the war and been lost during the 1960s. The council commissioned two new replicas in 2008 at a cost of £350,000.
Retford cannon[edit]
There is a cannon on display in Cannon Square in Retford Nottinghamshire. A plaque on the side of the cannon reads: Captured 1855 at Sevastopol. This is an original cannon and was hidden during World War II when it was threatened with being melted down for scrap. It sits in front of the main church, just off the Market Square. The monument is listed (Grade II) to include the Sevastopol Cannon, Lamp arch, supporting plinth and iron posts with chains surrounding it.
St Peter Port, Guernsey[edit]
Is on display at Castle Cornet. Bears a plaque that says: 'Presented by Her Majesty's Government to the Island of Guernsey as a trophy of the Russian War 1856'.
Tasmania cannon[edit]
Received two cannon.
One is located in City Park, Launceston.
Toronto cannon[edit]
Toronto received a fine pair of Sevastopol cannons. They installed them in 1860 in a new park, which was officially named Queen's Park in honour of Victoria. William Denby, in his wonderful book Lost Toronto, tells us that the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII) was on hand to lay a cornerstone to Queen Victoria. Sculptor Marshall Wood created a statue of Queen Victoria. It was finally unveiled in 1871, with the Sevastopol cannons on either side. But in 1874, when Wood submitted his invoice for $7,500, city officials were taken aback; they apparently hadn't realized the City would be asked to foot the bill – and such a high one at that! So they removed the statue and moved the cannons, which had formerly stood on the spot where there's now a John A. Macdonald statue, to their current positions on either side of the main entranceway to the Legislative Buildings. A new, less costly statue, was commissioned and installed in 1902.
Received two cannon.
Woolwich cannon[edit]
Cannon were stored in the arsenal at Woolwich.
