|Analytical Methods for the Determination of Radionuclides in Environmental Samples

|Publication Year:
|PhD Theses
|In this work, the activity concentrations of 210Po, 234U, 238U and 228Ra radioisotopes are determined in mineral waters by alpha-particle spectrometry and liquid scintillation counting, respectively. Strontium-90 in wild berries samples is determined in view of certification of this material as reference material and its activity concentration is determined by liquid scintillation counting. A new method was developed and evaluated for the sequential determination of uranium and polonium radioisotopes using two different pre-concentration methods and two separation procedures. The advantage of this new method is that polonium and uranium isotopes can be determined simultaneously in the same sample. The activity concentration of 228Ra was determined via its daughter 228Ac with liquid scintillation counting, and with a newly developed method for its determination via its granddaughter 228Th and alpha-particle spectrometry. The results of activity concentration of 228Ra obtained by the liquid scintillation method were used for the establishment of the reference value for an interlaboratory comparison of IRMM. The determination of 90Sr in the newly developed certified reference material of wild berries constitutes the last part of the thesis, with emphasis on two steps, the long term stability study and the characterisation of the property value.

Published at Tuesday, July 03rd, 2018 - 06:30:51 AM. Bedroom. By Geraldina Sauer.
We go now from a generous color palette to a monochromatic décor. This bedroom features various shades of the same color: yellow. The designer played with textures and patterns to create a dynamic décor. Everything here seems to match perfectly and the color shades complement each other beautifully.
The strategies you can use are numerous. For instance, you can use a bench for end of bed completeness as a focal point, making sure it contrasts with the bed and also with other elements in the room. The opposite strategy would be to make sure the bench blends in and in that case you can find a way to coordinate it with something else in the room like the curtains, the headboard or the area rug.

I'd like to say I've sent holiday cards to all the people I slept with this year, because in my head, every one of those relationships or friendships has been tied up neatly and can be summed up in a few lines of a card, but that's not the case. I wouldn't quite know how to summarize my feelings in a card—though with the few I did send, I kept it short but sweet. The cards I didn't send are perhaps more telling of the things I wish I could say, but can't.
It's been a very up-and-down year for my personal life. I ushered it in by puking on the subway. I was in a very bad mental place, and I've slowly lifted myself up out of it, but the ups and downs of dating have made me reassess in major ways as I try to figure out what I did right and what I did wrong in 2010 so I can make healthier sexual choices in 2011.
I'm probably a little more cynical than I was starting out the year. Getting dumped by surprise will do that to you. I also learned that I'm still not as comfortable in my skin as I'd like to be, and therefore am overly flattered when someone says they like me. I don't quite have the critical distance yet, even at 35, to be able to step back and assess whether I'm interested in them beyond their interest in me.
There's still a light bulb that goes off in my head, almost like a warning: Someone likes you! Beggars can't be choosers! Don't just be flattered, act on what they're saying before they get to know the real you and decide they don't actually like you all that much.
I hopped into bed way too many times with people who made it clear from the outset they didn't want or couldn't provide the kind of relationship I'm looking for. That doesn't mean the sex was bad, per se—quite the contrary in some cases. But in a way, good sex with someone who's not the right person for me is almost worse than bad sex because I know eventually it will have to end.
It's sappy, perhaps, but the moments I remember most are not necessarily the ones that include wild sex, or almost getting naked with my ex in his hallway, or the date that had one too many extra people involved and never should have happened. Instead, it's the quieter moments that I tuck close to my heart, the moments when something changed for me in the way I saw a particular lover, when they did something that made me think, Wow, you are capable of surprising me.
I've also learned to be a lot more discerning about the "L" word. In November, someone told me they loved me, and I told someone else I loved them, and the truth is, I don't think either of us really meant it. I'm sure we meant something, but I think the man who wrote it to me meant it as a way to make me like him the way I used to, and I texted it as a way to hold on to someone I'd lost months ago—someone that I never really actually had.
I've learned that I don't want to be with anyone who finds me through my writing; That is an evil trap I cannot quite escape from, but it is a false version of me they are seeing and falling for. I want to be with people who can see past that, who can see that writing is what I do—and I put a lot of myself into it—but it's not, at heart, who I am.
I'll be writing more about sex and social media, but suffice it to say, this year has forced me to reckon with the fact that what I do for a living will ultimately draw many of the wrong people to me, and drive away some with whom I think I'd be a great match. I'd caution anyone before using their real name in their sex writing to think long and hard about that decision, because it can come back to haunt you.
I got my first tattoo this year. It's on my back and says "Open". It's meant to be a reminder to me to be open to new people and new ways of seeing myself and the world, but I fear that I've been too open and need to pull back.
I don't want to just sit passively and wait for "the one" to appear before me, and certainly this year, with my first forays into online dating, has proven that I can meet people and be proactive. Yet online dating felt a little too proactive, like I was so desperate not to be alone that I'd do anything to avoid such a fate.
Lately, though, for the first time in a long time, I find I both like being single and being alone. I don't want to go to parties or meals out; that seems overwhelming—like I'm not up to the task, and when I do, I feel like I'm just playing some role, skimming over the surface of my life and those of my friends rather than digging deeper and going under the superficial surface.
I'm embracing "working on myself" in ways I haven't before and trying to push myself not just to do the bare minimum, but to do enough that I can look in the mirror and be proud of myself. There is a lot I have to take care of in my home and professional life before I can truly be the kind of girlfriend and sexual being I want to be.
I'm torn about the idea of making a New Year's sex resolution, because I'm probably very likely to break it, especially if it's something like, "Don't sleep with anyone I slept with in 2010."
Part of me would love a clean break, a formal starting over, where I actually put my sex life on pause and focus on those tasks that are holding me back in my personal life, like having a clean apartment. At the same time, there are people in my life I'm attracted to, and they're much easier to give up in my head than they are in real life. So we'll see. For now I'm looking back and hoping the lessons of 2010 are ones that come to me at the precise moment I need them.

I am about to walk a journey into what I call a spiritual desert. Deserts are dry and unyielding lands that bring to mind pictures of sand, thirst, hunger and extreme heat.
Growing up as an off-road enthusiast in California, I have spent much of my life in the desert…on purpose! And I love it. BUT…my "love" in this case, is very conditional. It's conditional on shelter, transportation, plenty of bottled water and a shady tree in the camp of my choice. The desert was not a place I associate with danger or fear, rather smores, potato guns and fun.
But there were times when our bikes would break down during an afternoon ride across the sand dunes and let me tell you…the longer you are stranded, the less fun it gets. It can become "no fun" in 30 minutes as the reality of thirst, heat and danger sets in.
Now…imagine walking into that place [the desert] by choice except this time: no shelter, transportation, or promise of water or shade. Sounds pretty intimidating, doesn't it? It gets real serious when you realize it's not about recreation anymore…but survival. And all of a sudden, intimidating turns into down right scary.
So if a person is questioning their chances of survival…why would someone make a CHOICE to go into such a place?
Dr. Dan Allender accurately describes this desire: "Change, true biblical healing, occurs when we are wholly dissatisfied with our condition of heart and soul." In other words, the pain of staying outweighs the fear of the pain in going.
Are you wondering why I am placing such a sense of pain and dread on "CHANGE?" After all, most of us would say change is good, right? But in order to truly change, one has to open the depths of their heart and look fully at the pain of the past. You have to face the ugliness of what was done to you and what you have done to others.
And in order to change, you must EMBRACE that pain (as opposed to avoid it and move past it in a quick search for relief).
And that's not all: once you start the process, it can feel like it gets worse before it gets better. As Dr. Allender puts it, change can "…bring conflict; conflict intensified by the desire to succumb to your old patterns…" and you end up feeling trapped in despair again.
"Biblical change actually opens a new realm of service and worship that, at times, puts one at odds with relationships that were founded on our willingness to be sick, enslaved, and dead."
This is not popular advice…and many of us don't take it. It's like being asked to hug a cactus. It is magnified when the past one faces and the change they are seeking is from soul-damaging abuse; specifically, sexual abuse.
I recognize this is far from easy. If I'm being honest, I will admit that I have attempted to walk through the healing/change process before and after experiencing the hurt of looking into my past, I stopped. I felt unstable and even fearful that if I asked the hardest questions, I might loose the reason for my existence, my faith and even the will to live.
Almost a year later, I am ready to try again. I wish I could say it is because I'm positively motivated. But alas, like most of the major changes we try to make, it is preceded by significant anguish and the search for relief.
Yep…PAIN in my motivator; the very thing I seek relief from. Ironic, isn't it?
I know I MUST take this journey because the pain of the status quo far outweighs the risk of the desert ahead of me. But I wonder if there are any out there reading this who need to take the same journey? Are there any living in silent pain from past wounds who ache for freedom from the internal torment? Does the fear of dealing with that pain keep you silent?
There is hope. And it starts with Him: Jesus Christ, the hope of Glory. But relief from the hold of our past cannot happen unless we TRUST Him. The challenge is: learning to trust God often starts in the desert.
In closing, I will give the words and invite of Dr. Dan Allender (because I think he borrowed them from the depths of my heart):
"The reason to pursue change is so that I can look at a sunset, read a novel, hold my daughters or son, drink deep from a friendship, sit quietly in prayer, or ponder heaven and simultaneously weep, laugh, and marvel. I want to know God, to experience what it means to be alive in His presence, then return to Him the praise of my grateful heart. If that is your desire-even if it is small and other motives apparently weigh larger in your heart, join me on this journey. Come walk with me awhile if your heart yearns to be captured by God's glory."
If God's glory is the goal, I challenge you(as much as I challenge myself) to be thankful for the motivating pain and embrace the desert for what it will product IN YOU: healing, trust and change.
Walking into the sunset,

For all you blog stalkers!
Sorry to all who have been waiting for a new post. I usually only post when I have some great pictures to put up but we bought a new camera and it is not compatible with our computer so........I can't get any new pictures on our blog:( But I will figure something out, don't you worry. As for our life.....ummmmmmmm, Abby and I flew home to Utah the end of April and spent a couple weeks visiting everyone. Sorry I didn't announce our visit but we were just home sick for family so we kept it quiet. We had so much fun playing with everybody and wish we could do it again but I think that was officially our last trip for the year. (I know I said that in February) In a month Matt's sister and husband are coming to visit and then right after them my sister Megan and her family are coming and we have an awesome trip to the Big Island planned in late July with them. We will hopefully find out our next assignment in the beginning of August! Then my parents plan to visit one last time in the fall and then it's Thanksgiving and Christmas and then we move in January! Whoa, what a year! So I hope that catches us up. Sorry for the two month MIA.

Right in the heart of Denver, on the grounds of the reclaimed Stapleton Airport, is a twenty three acre working urban farm. Students of the University of Colorado Denver built these two tremendous projects to enhance the farm's operation as well as to make a definitive statement about sustainable design as a part of the FEED Denver program. Using mostly salvaged materials the team put together a high design public gathering shelter and milking shed that do not easily give away their humble use or materials.
The project is headed by the two principals of Studio HT as part of a class of the Design Build Program at the University of Colorado Denver. The Learning Cube is a simple framed structure with shipping pallets as infill. While the materials are rough the careful construction and design give it a refined presence. The building is a gathering point to hold meetings and classes, sell produce, and to get out of a blazing Colorado summer sun.
The Dairy House is a refined vision mixing a variety of reclaimed material such as stone, iron and wood to provide a classy place to milk goats. The gabion steel boxes hold demolished concrete which support the exterior seats. An incorporated pen and milking platform complete the highly functional building. The building speaks to contemplation as much as it does to work. Together the projects inform a large audience about how green building practices can duly enhance both the financial and aesthetic value of a structure via good design.

Subscribe To TV Recap: Fringe - The Arrival Updates
I've already subscribed
What did we learn from this week's boring and uninformative building block episode of Fringe? Apparently where there's a bald guy with no eyebrows, there's a pattern incident.
Stop me if you know this one: A bald guy is sitting in a diner. He orders a sandwich with 11 jalapenos and then pours an entire bottle of Tabasco and pepper and chows down. Maybe he's an alien? Or a robot? Or some loon who escaped from the asylum where Walter was? No answers yet. We do know that he was watching a construction site with gadgety binoculars and writing something in a notebook in a language I've never seen before. Suddenly, but not altogether surprisingly, there's an explosion at the site and the guy makes a call to say it's arrived.
Sounds pretty normal, right? So why would Olivia be called in for an explosion? Because it was caused by a silver spherical thing called the cylinder. This particular cylinder is not like your normal kitchen appliances. It seems to be completely hollow but it emits a vibration that suggests otherwise. Walter's been working on it and he seems to know what to do with it. So he sends Peter to get tin foil and once he's gone, poor Astrid gets a needle full of sedatives so Walter can escape with the cylinder. Next thing we know he's sitting with the bald guy in another diner. We also know that Olivia is now on the trail of the bald guy. I guess for a whatever-he-is, he isn't very covert. He's been in the photos of every pattern incident.
When Walter's brought in, Olivia asks him where the cylinder is but he won't say. He says there's some one looking for it and he has to keep it safe. And he's right. There's a guy shooting his way through everyone who might know where the cylinder is. The ones who he has a particular interest in, though, he'll rig up to a telepathic machine so when they think something, he hears it. Crazy and painful looking. And the next target is Peter, who has recently returned to the lab with the tin foil. You may think that it's okay because Peter doesn't know where Walter hid the cylinder but when Walter hears that Peter's been abducted, he fears the guy will find the cylinder. And he's right once again.
Turns out Peter knows all of Walter's hiding spots and leads the guy directly to it. Luckily, Olivia gets there just in time to shoot the guy, but the cylinder has already been activated and it explodes down through the ground (that's apparently it's power, it shoots to the exact opposite spot on the globe). While she's checking that bad guy, the bald guy shows up right in front of a beaten up Peter. And the oddest thing happens. Anything Peter says, the bald guys says, too. I guess he can read minds without a machine.
And finally we get to the only information that's really worth anything in this episode. Walter explains that when he and Peter were in their car accident years and years ago, they were sinking into freezing water because Walter couldn't move. He and Peter, who was badly contorted due to the accident, died and were only saved because a bald guy with no eyebrows pulled them from the water. He told Walter that was needed in the future. Um, okay.
Yeah, that's it. Apparently the writers thought they overloaded us already because this bald guy thing could've been explained in one scene instead of an entire episode. Hopefully next week with be interesting and informative.

Emily Brodrick: What We Choose to Keep
My current works are collections of materials, patterns, forms and memories. My way of bringing my more rural roots into my current city life. As a child I would visit my Nonna's house on Shelter Island and my brothers and I would pick up treasures on the beach. Shells, crab claws, pieces of seaweed—and when we were lucky—an intact horseshoe crab. When we would get home we'd organize these objects into little, curated shrines to the sea.
This series is a reflection of these experiences and, in a sense, a continuation of that process of shrine-making; an homage to nature, but also to the memory of growing up in it. Acrylic paint, cut paper, ceramics and handspun yarn are formed into highly-detailed images and shapes that evoke living organisms. On multiple levels, this series embodies a yearning for a more "real" way of living as organic patterns and forms are coupled with traditionally considered craft media to create installations that evoke the past, both recent and distant.

Hamilton Sundstrand launches global Customer Response Center
WINDSOR LOCKS, Conn. – Hamilton Sundstrand, a subsidiary of United Technologies (NYSE: UTX), has begun construction of a new Customer Response Center at its Windsor Locks, Conn., facility – an innovative central contact point designed to respond to customer inquiries and collect data necessary to coordinate response efforts across Hamilton Sundstrand's functions.
"Hamilton Sundstrand's new Customer Response Center will serve as a key differentiator in the marketplace by providing a single data collection point to coordinate issue resolution efforts across all Hamilton Sundstrand's businesses, platforms and facilities, which is necessary given our product and service offerings' complexity," said Matthew Bromberg, Hamilton Sundstrand Customer Service vice president and general manager. "Our ultimate goal is to keep our customer's aircraft in the air."
Work began in May to construct the Customer Response Center, which will be staffed by engineers 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to help keep customer aircraft flying by addressing customer technical issues and aircraft spare part orders. The center will feature new software to manage customer inquiries and create a master database allowing Hamilton Sundstrand's businesses to coordinate their efforts in addressing and resolving customer issues as quickly as possible.
"Over the last decade, Hamilton Sundstrand's global customer base and diverse product portfolio have grown tremendously," Bromberg said. "At the same time, Hamilton Sundstrand's network of engineering, manufacturing and repair facilities has become more complex, customer expectations are always increasing, and airline maintenance strategies continue to evolve with total support programs and multi-party partnerships."
Construction on the new 2,720 square-foot Customer Response Center is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2010. While the new Customer Response Center is under construction, the operation is temporarily located at an alternate location on Hamilton Sundstrand's Windsor Locks, Conn., campus.
With 2009 revenues of $5.6 billion, Hamilton Sundstrand is headquartered in Windsor Locks, Conn. Among the world's largest suppliers of technologically advanced aerospace and industrial products, the company designs, manufactures and services aerospace systems and provides integrated system solutions for commercial, regional, corporate and military aircraft. It also is a major supplier for international space programs.
United Technologies Corp., based in Hartford, Conn., is a diversified company that provides high-technology products and services to the aerospace and building industries.

Cancer-fighting advocacy groups say the federal budget fight causing across-the-board spending cuts will eliminate 1,670 free screenings for breast and cervical cancer for women in New York without health insurance.
The American Cancer Society and the Cancer Action Network says the federal cuts resulting from the Washington dispute will be compounded by proposed state funding cuts now being negotiated.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo's budget would require preventive programs including anti-smoking efforts and those aimed at specific cancers to make efficiencies and compete for funding. Total funding would be cut by 10 percent. Cuomo's pushes competition as a way to make programs more efficient and ensure public spending is more effective.
A Saratoga County woman supported the groups' effort Wednesday, saying a free screening saved her life.

Leonardo Fibonacci
Leonardo Fibonacci also known as Leonardo Pisano, Leonardo of Pisa, was the greatest European mathematician of the Middle ages. He was born in Pisa in Italy circa 1170 and died some time after 1240.
Leonardo's father, Gugliemo, was a customs official and engaged in commerce representing Pisa at Bougie on the north coast of Africa. Young Leonardo consequently received a Moorish education as well as the traditional European education and was introduced to Hindu-Arabic numbers. Later on he traveled about the Mediterranean visiting Egypt, Syria, Greece, Sicily and Provence, meeting with scholars and becoming acquainted with the various arithmetical system used by the merchants.
The influence of Christians and Moslem cultures greatly stimulated Fibonacci resulting in a flow of mathematical writings. 'Liber Abaci (The Book of Calculations) was published in 1202 AD.
Europe was still using the Roman and Greek alphabet for numbers consequently the abacus had to be used for calculations. By helping to introduce Hindu-Arabic numbers, Fibonacci freed arithmetic from this need for the abacus.
Though not the first to write about the Hindu-Arabic number system- 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 0 – he showed by examples the superiority of this system over the Roman system. To Fibonacci also goes the credit for first using the bar in a fraction i.e. 5/6 separating the numerator and denominator.
Fibonacci Rabbits
In the "Liber Abaci", Fibonacci also examined the theoretical aspects of arithmetic such as series and their properties, extractions of square roots and cube roots. The Fibonacci Sequence was first named as such by the French mathematician Eduard Lucas in the 1870's. This sequence had been demonstrated by Fibonacci in a problem solving the breeding of rabbits.
"A certain man put a pair of rabbits in a place surrounded on all sides by a wall. How many pairs of rabbits can be produced from that pair in a year if it is supposed that every month each pair begets a new pair which from the second month on becomes productive?"
This problem gave rise to the Fibonacci sequence 126.96.36.199.22.214.171.124.34 55 and so on, in which each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers, was the first recursive number sequence developed in Europe. It was also the first in which the relation between two or more successive terms can be expressed by a formula.
The Fibonacci Sequence...and Rabbits!
The Fibonacci Numbers in Nature
Other works by Fibonacci are:
- Practica Geometriae (The Practice of Geometry: 1220)
- Liber Quadratorium (The Book of Square Numbers: 1225)
- Flos (The Flower: 1225)
The term Fibonacci Sequence was coined by the French mathematician Edward Lucas in the 19th century when scientist began to discover the numbers in nature.
The numbers include those found in:
- the spirals of sunflower heads and pine cones;
- the genealogy of the male bee;
- the related logarithmic spiral in snail shells;
- the arrangement of leaf buds on a stem and animal horns.
The Golden Spiral and the Rule of Thirds
Great Mathematicians
- George Boole
George Boole was a mathematician who helped to establish modern symbolic logic. The design of modern digital computer circuits is based on his algebra of logic called Boolean Algebra.
- Blaise Pascal

OK....What's up?
Dave, On the other site it was posted as April 28th for HB 2012. Do you know if this is set?
You're blurred out cuz you're playing mega fast! Cool kit; get back on it!
Hi Dave, thanks for stopping by my profile. I'd love to see your drum kit if you have pictures!
Dear Mad Dog
I would like to ask you a question about the competition.
I see some designs which have the proper wheel size, wheelbase, driver position and follow guidelines you provided...and some others that have bigger wheels, lower driver position, the rims do not differ from the tyres and have a single line to separate from the rest of the car etc, but they are more beautiful and artistic...
Well which way do you think is the best to follow? I mean which design technique FF want us to follow.
In fact I do some rough sketches and then I try to put the design lines I used on them on the guidelines(95 inch whelbase, wheel size, driver position height)..

Getting high quality interestingly framed images in constrained areas is a big aspect of convention photography. If you happen to run into a great cosplayer and ask for a photo, you just need to work with whatever the area is like. If it is a small or busy room with crowds of people, you can use your photography abilities to try and isolate the person or group to make them stand out as the subject of your image.
Angled away from the dealer room tables.
Let's say you are in the dealers room. You see a wonderful cosplayer browsing DVDs at one of the tables and don't want to miss the chance of getting their photo. So you ask for a photo, but now you need to deal with the crowds and limited space. Shooting their photo with the dealer's table in the background does not give you much room for nice background blur. Try having them move out about a foot from the table. Get yourself parallel to the cosplayer and the table. Now you can use the hallway or span of the room to your advantage since there tends to be at least a few feet of empty space in the pathway between sections of dealer tables. You can crouch down and take a photo of the cosplayer so that you get a lot of the empty ceiling in the frame as a background. You can also angle the camera halfway between landscape and portrait such that you fill most of the frame with the cosplayer to avoid background busyness.
There are many ways to get an interesting shot with limited space besides those simple ideas like using a wide angle lens, taking a portrait instead of a full body shot, and asking the cosplayer if they would like to take a photo in a better area. Be a king or queen of improvisational photography!

For over six years I have been a happy client of fp². In that time, thanks to the efforts of Anthony Flesch and John Balla, Buyer's Brokers has managed to establish itself as a dominant force in the Sedona real estate market - consistently leading all other agents in buyers' side market share.
For that accomplishment I credit Anthony's well-crafted strategic and tactical guidance, effective and attractive ad creativity, eloquent copy writing, and personal supportiveness. I am equally indebted to John's brilliance in creating and continuously fine-tuning our online marketing campaign. He has taken us from relative obscurity to a perennially top SEO spot on Google and Yahoo.
They are both top notch professionals, but even more importantly, they are simply inspiring, fine human beings and genuine pleasures to work with.

I wanted to compliment all those directly involved in the layout and redesign of my artistsinrhythm.com website. Input and suggestions from both sides have created a truly wonderful and eye appealing product. When in doubt, hire the professionals. Please pass my thanks along to any supporting cast members.
Since I am a musician myself, I'm especially sensitive to the way music samples are displayed, played and edited. In this area, I would say you've hit a home run. Outstanding all the way around. Again, thank you for excellent service, ideas and strategies.

Electronic voting (also known as e-voting) is a voting system which utilizes electronic means to aid in chores of casting and counting votes. Based on a particular implementation, electronic voting may make use of a range of internet services, all the way from basic data transmission to full-function online voting. Similarly, the automation level of this system may vary from simple chores to a full solution to the voting processes which includes voter registration and authentication, vote input, vote tallying, vote data encryption and transmission, vote consolidation and tabulation and administration of election.

This aspect gives e-voting a high level of secrecy especially to special population of voters with disabilities such as the visually or hearing impaired in an organization. By electronic voting, they are unassisted which improves they degree of secrecy unlike in paper balloting where they would need assistance. This aspect brings about enhanced equity in voting.

Unlike paper balloting that requires an organization to setting up of polling stations and employ staff to conduct the voting process, electronic voting only requires the start-up costs for machines which can as well be used in future elections. This renders electronic voting loss costly as compared to the paper balloting.
Elimination or reduction of ballot errors, and spoiled ballots.
Finally, electronic voting has the ability to increase the overall quality of ballots cast through the reduction or fully elimination of ballot errors that are most likely to occur in paper balloting in addition to creating better informed electors in the organization. Furthermore, depending on the electronic voting system architecture, it is possible to have additional information displayed in regard to candidates and policy positions. This provides basic information about the candidates and party platforms to the voters, thereby informing them better to vote.

Counties can increase property tax collections with NCPTS
Counties across the state approach property tax appraisal, billing and collections in varied ways. Some methods lead to more fair and equitable appraisals for taxpayers and higher collections rates, providing more money to fund county programs and services. For the past five fiscal years, NCPTS members have achieved collections rates 1-2% higher than those counties that do not use NCPTS. That translates to millions of dollars in revenue available to counties. The higher collection rates among NCPTS members are a testament to the efficacy of the system and consultation and support members receive.

Six NYFW shows that brought the catwalk to the public
Sep 13, 2019 | By WGSN Insider
Jan 07, 2016
Alessandro Dell'Acqua is a fountain of creativity. For Pre-Fall he presented a superb lineup for No 21 and showed nothing less for Rochas.
Paris: To quote the show notes, " the Pre-Fall collection introduces a relaxed, unforced attitude". This approach was cleverly crafted in a blend of light, feminine and tailored pieces with a desire for practicality and relaxation pervading throughout. Dell'Acqua also looked to Julie Christie in the 70s film Shampoo, reconciling both past and present with a fresh outlook. He achieved this by the unique blends of heavy and light luxurious materials, impeccably tailored yet styled with an understated casual attitude.
There was a touch of society eccentricity and wealth evident in the quirky styling and in the accessories – embroideries, rhinestones, and fil rouge decorated the toes and heels of satin slippers while Mary Janes were styled with ribbons, adding a stately almost aristocratic touch. However, it was the coats that were at the heart of the collection, created in rich, sumptuous and cozy alpaca, and luxurious double-faced cashmere – a collection put together with a nonchalant attitude, a keen feminine sensibility and masculine attitude – perfect for the new season. – Lizzy Bowring
Theme: Masculinity with a touch of sweetness
Key Items: Fur jacket, Tailored multi pocket shirt, Asymmetric pencil skirt with side split, Double-breasted coat, Cropped masculine trousers, Greatcoat, Slipdress, Voluminous full length dress, Shearling jackets
Colour: Pale blue, Biscuit, Black, Grey, Camel, Wine, Mint green, Mocha, Forest green, Pink
Print and Pattern: Animal skin, Single Chrysanthemums, Orchids, Oversized yarn dye, Python, Tweeds, Japanese wool, Fil coupe, Reverse sheepskin, Boucle
Trims and Materials: Lace, Silk chiffon, Silk de chine, Sequins, Hand-woven tweed, Crepe de chine, Devore velvet
Footwear and Accessories: Pointed toe kitten heels, Socks, Fur stole, Shoulder bag, Knee high boots, Snakaeskin boots, Chunky heeled Mary Janes, Satin slippers

Jennifer Aniston, Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts And More Step Out To Honour Shirley MacLaine
Hollywood's Most Famous Ladies Gather to Honour Shirley MacLaine
Hollywood's Most Famous Ladies Gather to Honour Shirley MacLaine
Stars including Jennifer Aniston, Meryl Streep, Dakota Fanning, Julia Roberts and Katherine Heigl were out in LA on Thursday night for the AFI Life Achievement Award gala honouring Shirley MacLaine. Plenty of veteran Hollywood actors also paid tribute to Shirley — Morgan Freeman, Jack Nicholson, and Shirley's own brother, Warren Beatty, were on hand. Julia and Katherine both took the stage to lavish praise on Shirley. Julia Roberts said of Shirley, her Steel Magnolias costar, "She has it all, she can do it all . . . How can I put this? She's got balls."
Katherine had more kind words for Shirley. She said, "You taught me this exceptional lesson: to hold my freakin' own." On the red carpet though, Katherine talked about her family, husband Josh Kelley, 3-year-old Naleigh, and newly adopted infant Adalaide. She said, "I definitely want more kids! I think we decided on three, but I'm pushing for four."

|Home > Modeling turbine wakes and power losses within a wind farm using LES: An application to the Horns Rev offshore wind farm
A modeling framework is proposed and validated to simulate turbine wakes and associated power losses in wind farms. It combines the large-eddy simulation (LES) technique with blade element theory and a turbine-model-specific relationship between shaft torque and rotational speed. In the LES, the turbulent subgrid-scale stresses are parameterized with a tuning-free Lagrangian scale-dependent dynamic model. The turbine-induced forces and turbine-generated power are modeled using a recently developed actuator-disk model with rotation (ADM-R), which adopts blade element theory to calculate the lift and drag forces (that produce thrust, rotor shaft torque and power) based on the local simulated flow and the blade characteristics. In order to predict simultaneously the turbine angular velocity and the turbine-induced forces (and thus the power output), a new iterative dynamic procedure is developed to couple the ADM-R turbine model with a relationship between shaft torque and rotational speed. This relationship, which is unique for a given turbine model and independent of the inflow condition, is derived from simulations of a stand-alone wind turbine in conditions for which the thrust coefficient can be validated. Comparison with observed power data from the Horns Rev wind farm shows that better power predictions are obtained with the dynamic ADM-R than with the standard ADM, which assumes a uniform thrust distribution and ignores the torque effect on the turbine wakes and rotor power. The results are also compared with the power predictions obtained using two commercial wind-farm design tools (WindSim and WAsP). These models are found to underestimate the power output compared with the results from the proposed LES framework.

William McDougall FRS[2] (/məkˈduːɡəl/; 22 June 1871 – 28 November 1938) was an early 20th century psychologist who spent the first part of his career in the United Kingdom and the latter part in the United States. He wrote a number of highly influential textbooks, and was particularly important in the development of the theory of instinct and of social psychology in the English-speaking world. He was an opponent of behaviourism and stands somewhat outside the mainstream of the development of Anglo-American psychological thought in the first half of the 20th century; but his work was very well-known and respected among lay people.
McDougall was educated at Owens College, Manchester and St John's College, Cambridge.[3] He also studied medicine and physiology in London and Göttingen. After teaching at University College London and Oxford, he was recruited to occupy the William James chair of psychology at Harvard University in 1920, where he served as a professor of psychology from 1920 to 1927. He then moved to Duke University, where he established the Parapsychology Laboratory under J. B. Rhine, and where he remained until his death. He was a Fellow of the Royal Society. Among his students were Cyril Burt, May Smith, William Brown and John Flügel.[4]
McDougall's interests and sympathies were broad. He was interested in eugenics, but departed from neo-Darwinian orthodoxy in maintaining the possibility of the inheritance of acquired characteristics, as suggested by Jean-Baptiste Lamarck; he carried out many experiments designed to demonstrate this process.[5] Opposing behaviourism, he argued that behaviour was generally goal-oriented and purposive, an approach he called hormic psychology (from Greek ὁρμή hormḗ "impulse").
However, in the theory of motivation, he defended the idea that individuals are motivated by a significant number of inherited instincts, whose action they may not consciously understand, so they might not always understand their own goals. His ideas on instinct strongly influenced Konrad Lorenz[citation needed], though Lorenz did not always acknowledge this[citation needed]. McDougall underwent psychoanalysis with C. G. Jung, and was also prepared to study parapsychology.
Because of his interest in eugenics and his unorthodox stance on evolution, McDougall has been adopted as an iconic figure by proponents of a strong influence of inherited traits on behaviour, some of whom are regarded by most mainstream psychologists as scientific racists. He wrote:
"...; the few distinguished Negroes, so called, of America – such as Douglass, Booker Washington, Du Bois – have been, I believe, in all cases mulattoes or had some proportion of white blood. We may fairly ascribe the incapacity of the Negro race to form a nation to the lack of men endowed with the qualities of great leaders, even more than to the lower level of average capacity" (McDougall, William., The Group Mind, p.187, Arno Press, 1973; Copyright, 1920 by G.P. Putnam's Sons).
McDougall married at the age of 29 ("against my considered principles", he reports in his autobiographical essay, "for I held that a man whose chosen business in life was to develop to the utmost his intellectual powers should not marry before forty, if at all"). He had five children.
McDougall's book The Group Mind received "very hostile reviews" from psychologists but sold well to the public. The American Press was critical of McDougall as his lectures on national eugenics were seen as racist.[5]
Psychical research[edit]
McDougall was a strong advocate of the scientific method and academic professionalisation in psychical research. He was instrumental in establishing parapsychology as a university discipline in the US in the early 1930s.[6] In 1920, McDougall served as president of the Society for Psychical Research, and in the subsequent year of its US counterpart, the American Society for Psychical Research.[7]
McDougall was a member of the Scientific American committee that investigated the medium Mina Crandon.[5] He attended séances with the medium and was sceptical about her "ectoplasmic hand". He suspected that it was part of an animal, artificially manipulated to resemble a hand. McDougall's suspicion was confirmed by independent experts who had examined photographs of the hand.[5]
McDougall was critical of spiritualism, he believed that some of its proponents such as Arthur Conan Doyle misunderstood psychical research and "devote themselves to propaganda".[5] In 1926, McDougall concluded "I have taken part in a considerable number of investigations of alleged supernormal phenomena; but hitherto have failed to find convincing evidence in any case, but have found rather much evidence of fraud and trickery."[8]
McDougall, however, continued to encourage scientific research on psychic phenomena and in 1937 was a founding co-editor (with Joseph Banks Rhine) of the peer-reviewed Journal of Parapsychology, which continues to be published.
In 1911, McDougall authored Body and Mind: A History and Defence of Animism. In the work he rejected both materialism and Darwinism and supported a form of Lamarckism where mind guides evolution. McDougall defended a form of animism where all matter has a mental aspect; his views were very similar to panpsychism as he believed that there was an animating principle in matter and had claimed in his work that there were both psychological and biological evidence for this position.[9] McDougall had defended the theory that mind and the brain are distinct but interact with each other though he was not a dualist or a monist as he believed his theory of animism would replace both the philosophical views of dualism and monism.[10][11] As a parapsychologist he also claimed telepathy had been scientifically proven, he used evidence from psychic research as well as from biology and psychology to defend his theory of animism.[12]
McDougall produced another work attacking materialism titled Materialism and Emergent Evolution (1929). In the book he had also criticised the theory of emergent evolution as he claimed it had ignored the evidence of Lamarckism and had ignored the evidence of mind guiding evolution. McDougall's last work on the subject titled The Riddle of Life (1938) criticised organicism as according to McDougall even though the theory of organicism had rejected materialism it had not gone far enough in advocating an active role for a nonphysical principle.[13]

T-Fal is produced by French Manufacturers DuPont, a major producer of cookware. They have different product lines available to suit any budget from the professional chef to the everyday cook. One of the signature pieces that T-Fal produces is the T-Fal Thermo Spot. It's a big red dot on the bottom of the pan.
What is the T-Fal Red Spot?
- Simply put it's a temperature indicator
The T-fal red spot is a unique feature that tells you when your pans are preheated to perfection. The spot changes color when the pan heats up. When the pan reaches the ideal temperature, the thermo Spot pattern turns to a solid red. It's a great visual cue for any chef. The red spot is available on sauté pans, frying pans and the like.
The way the red spot works is that when the pan is placed on a hot stove the Thermo Spot will heat up changing to a bright solid red. You don't have to worry about the red spot scraping off either. It's a part of the non-stick coating applied during production.
You have to hand it to T-Fal when it comes to innovation. The red spot is a great tool for a beginning chef. It takes the guesswork out of preheating your pans. It sounds a bit simple but think about it for a second. If your pan isn't pre heated properly for those delicate egg dishes they can stick and ruin the whole recipe. The red spot is just a little piece of insurance that can help a burgeoning cook gain a little bit of confidence.
Thermo Spot cookware is widely available. You can find it in most department stores, through T-Fal's website or just look around online for the best bargain. We have found that Amazon generally has the best prices.
You can find the right skillet or sauté pan in whatever price range suits you. So why not start shopping and then start cooking with one less thing to worry about.

Hello folks, awesome site you have here! I have recently got back into my cycling trying to ride once a day and do anything from 20-60km's to try and get my fitness up. Currently I am riding an '07 Avanti Blade hybrid which seems a fairly decent ride for the time being. I am looking for a bit of direction perhaps on good road bike routes. I am currently doing rides out to Port Chalmers, Albatross Point, Portabello and round town etc. These routes are fine but can be a bit repetitive after a while. Any direction would be appreciated.
I hope everyone has had a good Xmas and I hope everyone has a happy and safe New Year!
