Context: The present study deals with the phytochemistry properties and antioxidant activities of the apricot (Prunus armeniaca) and plum (Prunus domestica) leaves.
Objective:The current study measures the flavonoids and phenolic acids contents ofthe ethanolic extracts of apricot and plum leaves,and evaluates theirantioxidant potential.
Materials and methods:Phenolic composition was assessed using LC-ESI-MS technique. Antioxidant potential was evaluated by manycomplementary methods.
Results: Prunus extracts contained high level of phenolics (445-468 mg GAE/g extract), which correlate with their appreciable antioxidant potentialin DPPH• radical-scavenging (IC50: 22-42 μg/ml) and Fe3+ reducing (EC50: 0.10-0.11 mg/ml) assays. Rutin (quercetin-3-O-rutinoside) was the major compound (25.8mg/g extract) followed by 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid (6.32mg/g extract) in apricot leaves, whereas quinicacid (2.55mg/g extract) and quercitrin (1.09mg/g extract) were the major ones in plumleaves.
Conclusion: Prunus leaves may be useful as a candidate for potent antioxidants.

Symphysodon 'super pigeon blood'
An artifical form with a reddish bakground colour and a network of dark red markings. Blue markings are most obvious on the face and fins, but are rather weak on the flanks. There are black speckles on the flanks, as is typical for 'pigeon blood' discus.
Discus are uniquely shaped cichlids and considered by many to be among the most handsome of all freshwater aquarium fish. They are peaceful and sociable, and must be kept in groups, preferably six or more.
While some aquarists keep them with very peaceful companions such as cardinal tetras, hatchet fish, and Corydoras, they are perhaps more often kept in single species tank. Discus need excellent water conditions, in particular low nitrate and phosphate levels, and the water must be soft and acidic.
Fish information (behaviour and breeding):
Relatively peaceful, but can be territorial when breeding. Otherwise they enjoy being in groups, and if kept alone tend to be rather shy.
These fish are famous for being among the few fish that provide food for their offspring. Once the fry are free swimming, they 'graze' mucous from the flanks of the parents. After a week of this, the fry will also take newly hatched brine shrimp and liquid fry food.
Fish Details:
Further fish details are shown below:
|The ideal temperature range is 25-30C
|Approx 14cm
|Water Parameters
|Preferred water conditions are soft and acidic
|Water PH
|The pH should be less than 7, ideally around 6.

Plane blows tire, catches fire at O'Hare; passengers safe
An American Airlines plane blew out a tire and caught fire at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport Friday, according to officials.
American 383 caught fire while rolling out for departure off ORD RWY 28R pic.twitter.com/J1p2LXVTSy— ORD Airport Insider (@ORDInsider) October 28, 2016
The airplane that caught fire was Flight 383, a Boeing 767 flying from O'Hare to Miami with 161 passengers on board and nine crew members, according to Fox 32 in Chicago.
Flight 383 to Miami aborted takeoff after the incident and passengers were deplaned. Seven passengers and a flight attendant reported minor injuries.
"[The plane] blew a tire at 2:35 p.m. [local time] and aborted take off," the Federal Aviation Administration said in a tweet. "FAA investigating."
Massive plumes of smoke could be seen rising from the tarmac from terminal windows in photos on Twitter. There were reports the fire also damaged an engine.
Chicago fire officials said on the department's Twitter account that there was an extra-alarm emergency response at the airport for an "aircraft down."
Several ambulances were on the scene. Published reports said the fire came as a fire drill was scheduled to take place, perhaps adding to consusion.

First thesis:
As already explained under all "meme" tags and especially in this post, memes form THE unique human environment that follow same replication and evolution principles as genes within genetic evolution. That memes follow more lamarckian (inheritance of acquired characteristics) rules and genes more darwinian (genetic inheritance and selection) rules does not change the fact that memes are specific human replicators, second replicators, that differentiate humans from the rest of environment.
Second thesis:
As already explained memes behave like brands and brands behave like memes. The only difference is that brands exist only as meme-complexes. As explained in Brandlife and in many posts in this blog, one can explain brand identity with brand identity formula, that consists of 9 elements. Each of 9 brand identity elements can consist of at least one and up to couple of memes. We can then come up to 20 or even more than 30 memes that interrelate within each brand. What is important is to understand, that memes within a brand should not be understand as listed, but as interrelated. That means that a meme "x" within a brand "BRAND1" has different value as meme "x" in "BRAND2" for the reason that meme environment in each brand is different.
Conclusion 1:
Different value for each meme within different identity environment explain us why a meme "sunny" has different value if it is interrelated within "SUNBURN PROTECTION CREME" or within "SOLAR CELL".
Conclusion 2:
This leads also to simple explanation why words have ambiguous meanings and why all dictionaries are imperfect. It also explains us why Thesaurus with a list logic helps, but does not explain a word in full detail.
Conclusion 3:
Memes, meme-complexes and brands have identities that can be explained, but can only be understood in interrelation. That means that they can never be objectively understood. They are relational. They are never the same, but at the same time they have explicable identity. This fact proves to be the hardest for all those (especially managers) that have no experience in philosophy or at least in complexity theory.
Conclusion 4:
Any human activity, including medicine, management or science can not but be holistic. While each human activity has to analyze its field as deep as possible (the extent is limited by present tools available), those elements described by analytic tools can be understood only through their dynamic internal and external environment.
Corollary 1:
While analysis is driven by deduction, holistic interpretation is driven by induction.
Conclusion 5:
Each human activity is (should be) objective in deduction and subjective in induction. Only seamless cohabitation of both (holism) can be understood as Human Action (Von Mises).
Corollary 2:
Science and western medicine both have strong inclination to forget on subjective (holistic) part of human action. But that does not mean that they do not perform this subjective action. Human action can not be but a unity of deduction and induction. That science and western medicine do not want to see themselves in the realm of subjective (holistic) only mean that they avoid to make it explicit. In fact those that those that do not accept necessity of holism, they perform their actions irrational (not explicit, thought over..) much more than those that accept necessity of double nature of each human action.
Corollary 3:
While medicine and science often reject subjective nature of their actions, management and so called "social sciences" often reject objective, deductive level of their human actions. They fail to recognize physical reality.
Human action that fully accepts double nature of human life is called homonism.
Double nature of human life is homogenous, monistic (Spinoza) as much as identity is possible only as one.

Studies suggest that keeping active when you have cancer improves your tolerance for treatment such as chemotherapy and your ability to manage side effects such as fatigue, pain and depression. Studies of women with breast cancer have shown that regular exercise improves quality of life and boosts body-image and self-confidence.
There is usually no right or wrong exercise and guidelines suggest 150 minutes a week of exercise. Ask for your doctor or oncologist if you have any concerns or specific questions.

Introducing this tea.
I first wanted to share some info on this tea provided by Don on his website for Imperial Green. This will explain some of the misconceptions a lot of people have when associating with Longjing.
"Authentic Longjing tea (otherwise known as Dragonwell) must be grown in Zhejiang province. If it is grown anywhere else then it is considered a fake (much like champagne). Every year we taste many samples of Longjing to find our batch for the year. For the past couple of years, we have selected a tea from outside the West Lake area because we feel that it has a much higher quality compared with the West Lake tea."
"This is a Pre Qingming tea picked on the 19th March giving a lightness and delicacy combined with a powerful fragrance and taste. Any Pre Qingming tea from Xi Hu (West Lake) is exorbitantly expensive and whilst it is often excellent tea, we felt that this batch won out in terms of flavour and we are not paying the extra price tag for the name of Xi Hu."
"Please note that you may find white yellow fur on the tea and little balls of fur in the tea. This is NOT mold but is tea fur showing that the tea is a very early spring tea – it demonstrates the quality of this Longjing."
Don Mei
Now that we understand what really makes true Longjing green tea, let's go into our tasting notes for every infusion. Notice how each infusion is different and how this contributes to the overall experience of tasting this green tea.
First Infusion
The first thing I noticed when I took my sip was how delicate yet full it is. In some poor quality Longjings, yes the tea is delicate and soft, but it doesn't have the character and richness that a really good green tea or especially Longjings would carry. The first thing you smell would be grass, and perhaps some sweet minerality but not the full green pea, and white chocolate sort of richness that you can get from this Imperial Green. It is a really good tea from the start, and I want to mention this as well. Good tea will have character and it's own unique system of revealing itself to you, but it will always make a good impression on you. It is like some people that take a job interview. In order for you to be hired, you have to make a very good first impression. This is the key. This tea has very special qualities of brightness and a very rich taste. The notes of early spring, the freshness in the air during spring. This is the first feeling I got. I got notes of ripe strawberry, peach and star fruit. The nuttiness is there, but not super obvious. I have to dig on and it seems to come later after the fruits and lasts at the tip of my tongue.
Second Infusion
Less intense aroma, more broth and umami concentrated. However, still fresh, and keeps improving in the mouth. Surprisingly, I did feel some energy from this tea as well. The energy moved from the tip of my tongue to the shoulders and went down to my stomach. The tea will keep going.
Third Infusion
On top of the minerality, there is a floral note. The one I am getting the most would have to be jasmine. Jasmine with white chocolate and lightly sprinkled hazelnuts would be the best description of what it tasted like on the third brew.
Fourth and Fifth Infusion
Very different from the rest of the infusions in that the cooling aspect is coming out. Real sensation in the throat, not minty but more like watermelon coolness. Honeydew can also be used as an example of what I am trying to describe. It isn't a cooling sensation nearly as obvious as the ones from Tie Guan Yin's, but rather fruity.
The sixth infusion.
Wow, the leaves are still fresh. Sweet spinach aroma floating from the gaiwan, and the tea still tastes good. In most cases, after the third or fourth brew, the tea is finished, but it is not the case for this tea. I can keep pushing and the result is still nice. Classic seaweed taste with a lingering zesty finish. Delicious.
Final Thoughts and Conclusion
I would rate this tea a 9 out of 10 because it simply deserves the high ranking. The tea is clear, persistent and yet constantly evolving. It makes me appreciate and connect with the world, and just like any other good tea, it makes me feel good. Distinctively special Longjing. Very good tea overall. I think that this would be the second best Longjing I've ever tried.

Longjing Review:
Main Info
Number of Total Steeps (8)
Aroma of Dry Leaves (sweet corn, nuts, and a little bit of casis or citrus.)
Aroma of Wet Leaves ( fresh grass, boiled vegitables )
Taste Profile ( see paragraphs)
Texture Profile ( thick syrup, medium bite)
Feeling/ Aftertaste ( bitter with some sweetness.)
Attitude Rank: 6 out of 10.
My first impression about this tea was very decent, as the leaves are pretty green and leaves were unbroken. However, we cannot judge the tea by the appearance, as the taste is the most important. I did see some white furry spots on the tea which was a good sign, showing that the tea leaves are not too old. The tea is not pre-qingming which is an important thing to notice especially for Longjing, but let's not put assumptions. The dry leaves had a very pleasant roasted aroma, which is good. We will see what we can pull out from the taste.
The first infusion is the most important for green tea, as it shows everything. The number one strength I have to put out fo this tea was the aftertaste, as it is very pungent. I felt the tea lingering inside my mouth for around 15 min, which is impressive. The leaves are of quality for sure. The taste of the first infusion is eggy, and very vegital. Notes of broccoli, asparagus, and cooked beans are strong. The important note of chestnuts or very fresh peas are missing, which isn't a bad thing but better with for Longjing. This is not a pre-qingming so it is understandable, as the price is probably double or triple the original price of this.
The second infusion was similar, except more of the floral notes came in, and tasted much like a Japanese steamed green tea. The oceanic aroma and taste of umami did remind me of Japanese sencha. Thick and rich sweetness in the brew, but also very persistent bitterness. I am using 75 degree water, so I don't think that is the problem. Very crisp at the throat, almost drying.
The third infusion was much like a continuation of the second infusion, as there was nothing really happening. The thick body and rich aftertaste is persistent. The taste maybe similar to a Anhui green or Zisun.
In conclusion, the tea is a good green tea, but not a good Longjing. I am being as honest as I am able to, and by no means is the tea bad. But, as a tea reviewer, I do believe I have to be fair and without bias to companies and to the teas. This organic Longjing does have a certification on it, and you can view it here. Great green tea however, especially if your looking for a good tasting organic green tea and don't want to spend too much on it. In a Longjing, I am looking for a spicific aroma of chestnuts and a roasted aroma.
Teavivre, more reviews are coming soon. Stay tuned.

I am not exactly new to the blogging world. I currently have my multiply page which I have been maintaining for the past two years but I am taking blogging to the next level… my own web blog!
The encouragement… and the money… to pay for my web blog comes from my husband. But, of course! I am a stay-at-home mommy who takes care of our one and only (so far!) son in a land where everything takes a lot of adjustment to. From my birth country, the Philippines, my husband and I moved to Seoul to be an expatriate family. We are still living here in Seoul, with a few friends who make life beautiful!
Since I am new to my own web blog, I got a great deal of help from Betchay in setting up myrockingcradle.com. One Tuesday afternoon, I bribed her with food through a text message to come over my house and help me make sense out of this new world of terminologies. The food that I bribed her with was actually only a roll cake purchased on sale 🙂 from Paris Baguette. Did she go home satisfied with my offering? Your guess is as good as mine. But I burned the midnight oil for the next few nights figuring out what has been taught to me in a few hours of that Tuesday afternoon. My thanks to Betchay whom I met through… blogging, but of course!
With a design I am satisfied with for the moment, I am ready to write and write and write! I am so excited! I may change my settings every now and then… I am still new, after all:-) But, I am ready!

Scores killed in Iraq bomb attacks
17 explosions strike Baghdad and 6 other cities and towns
Car bombs ripped through Shia and Kurdish targets in Baghdad and other cities Wednesday, killing at least 66 people, wounding more than 200 and feeding growing doubts that Iraq will emerge as a stable democracy after decades of war and dictatorship.
The latest bloodshed comes against a backdrop of sharpening political divisions that show Iraq has made little progress in healing the breach among its religious and ethnic communities that once pushed the country to the brink of civil war. The co-ordination, sophistication and targets of the attack bore the hallmarks of al-Qaeda and its Sunni militant allies seeking to exploit these tensions.
Some media outlets said the death toll was even higher, with the BBC saying at least 84 people were killed and the New York Times citing officials who put the death toll at 90.
Iraqi authorities played down any suggestion that the devastating attacks that have taken place every few weeks or so since the U.S. military withdrew in mid-December portend a return to the all-out, tit-for-tat violence that tore the nation apart in 2006-07.
"Iraqis are fully aware of the terrorism agenda and will not slip into a sectarian conflict," said Baghdad military command spokesman Col. Dhia al-Wakeel.
But Iraqi authorities have been unable to prevent such wide-scale attacks, even though they were on high alert during a major Shia pilgrimage. And the number and distribution of these bombings demonstrate the strength and resilience of the Sunni militants.
Altogether, 17 explosions struck Baghdad and six other cities and towns some 500 kilometres apart, from Mosul in the vast deserts of the north to Hillah in the fertile plains of the south.
Most targeted Shia pilgrims between 5 a.m. and 8 a.m. local time as hundreds of thousands were making their way on foot to the capital.
"I fell on the ground. Then so many people fell on me" said Falah Hassan, who was being treated for wounds at Sheikh Zayid Hospital in Baghdad
Hours after the bombing in Hillah, puddles of blood and shards of metal still clogged a drainage ditch. Soldiers and dazed onlookers wandered near the charred remains of the car that exploded, gazing at the gaping holes in nearby shops.
Wednesday's blasts were the third this week targeting the annual pilgrimage to observe the eighth-century death of Imam Moussa al-Kadhim, a revered saint who was the Prophet Muhammad's great-grandson.
The processions of the faithful, many waving green banners, will converge on a golden-domed shrine in Baghdad's northern neighbourhood of Kazimiya. The commemoration culminates on Saturday.
Bombs also hit pilgrims in the cities of Taji near the capital and Karbala and Balad in southern Iraq. The Kurdish ethnic minority was also targeted: Bombs struck the offices of two political parties in the northern city of Kirkuk.
One senior Iraqi intelligence officer acknowledged that the attacks — despite heightened security measures — showed the weakness of the military and police.
Another officer, the chief of military intelligence, said the carnage could have been even worse if security forces had not managed to seize two explosives-laden vehicles in Baghdad and Taji early in the morning, including a truck full of watermelons hiding nearly a tonne of explosives. Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity to protect their families.
Deadly day
The overall toll made Wednesday the deadliest day in Iraq since Jan. 5, when a wave of bombings targeting Shias killed 78 people in Baghdad and outside the southern city of Nasiriyah.
The level of violence has dropped dramatically in Iraq since the height of the war, though Shia religious events are often targeted. Blast walls have come down, and the recent opening of a department store has given some hope to residents of the formerly terrifying Baghdad neighbourhood of Azamiyah.
Other deadly attacks since Dec. 18:
Dec. 22, 2011: Attacks rip through markets, cafés and government buildings in a dozen mostly Shia neighbourhoods of Baghdad, killing 69.
Jan. 5, 2012: Co-ordinated bombings target Shia Muslims, killing 78 in Baghdad and outside Nasiriyah, days before a Shia holy day.
Feb. 23: Attacks kill at least 55 people as car bombs go off near an elementary school in Musayyib, a restaurant in the Shia area of Kazimiyah, and by security forces and at checkpoints and around government and political offices.
March 20: Insurgents intent on derailing an Arab League meeting in Baghdad unleash attacks across Iraq, leaving 46 dead.
April 19: Bombs rip through 10 Iraqi cities, killing at least 30.
June 4: Suicide bomber detonates explosive-rigged car outside Iraq's main religious affairs office for Shia Muslims, killing 23.
But the weakness of Iraq's security apparatus, the government's inability to provide even basic services like electricity and the dysfunctional political scene foster pessimism. Six months after the departure of the last U.S. forces, the prospects of Iraq quickly transforming into a functioning democracy are further dimming.
Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, a Shia, is under fire for breaking promises to share power with his partners in a unity government and focusing on settling old scores. Tensions spiked after Vice-President Tariq al-Hashemi — the highest-ranking Sunni in Iraq's leadership — was charged with running death squads. The government began his trial in absentia with al-Hashemi out of the country.
"The al-Qaeda elements in Iraq are feeling like they are in a position to try to start something bigger in Iraq and they are trying to do so. They are increasingly going after Shiite targets to try to reignite the civil war," said Kenneth Pollack, a senior researcher at the Brookings Institution's Saban Center for Middle East Policy.
Meanwhile, a lethargic parliament has failed to take up important bills such as regulating the sharing of oil revenue with the northern Kurdish region. Red tape stifles economic growth. And Sunnis complain of discrimination and disenfranchisement.
Iraq's oil riches — an income of tens of billions of dollars a year — are effectively cushioning the lack of effective government and preventing the country from becoming a failed state like Somalia.
Still, despite the political crisis, there are some signs of progress that attacks like Wednesday's have not managed to erase, said Joost Hiltermann, deputy Middle East program director for the International Crisis Group.
"These attacks will occur regardless, whether there is political tension or there is no political tension," Hiltermann said.
He noted that al-Maliki, for all his missteps, is still in control of the government and that the tensions, while escalating, have not yet shown signs of a return to the sectarian battles of the past, when bombings and attacks happened several times a day and people were afraid to leave their homes.
"The political parties are still agreeing to work out their problems through a democratic process," he said. "That's why there's talk of a no-confidence vote in parliament and not about shooting people."

Jets head coach Todd Bowles said S Marcus Maye underwent surgery on Tuesday to repair his shoulder injury that placed him on the IR for the remainder of the season.
When asked about his expected recovery, Bowles answered with "a couple months," which is a good sign for the second-year player.
Maye, a second-round pick in 2017, is the seventh-leading tackler for the Jets in 2018-2019. He tallied 34 tackles, a half-sack, a forced fumble and one interception in six games this season.
He turned some heads earlier this year with an interception return against the Broncos. The 104-yard interception return is the longest in franchise history.
Cornerback Jeremy Clark was promoted to the active roster to take Maye's place.

A nationally profound athlete Ridzuan Puzi has just been the first Malaysian to be honoured the Best Asian Male Para Athlete 2018 award! This will be his highest award to date. After beating all odds and breaking the record for the sprint 100m T36 category as well as the long jump category in 2018.
To add up to an amazing record, he also managed to surpass his personal record with a remarkable 11.87 during the blue riband event where he beat his very own world record of 11.90 which was set at the 2013 world championships in Lyon.
What's more? Puzi also managed to brake an all-time record of 5.54 which was set by Yang Yi Fei in 2016.
The award ceremony will be held in Dubai which is where the 31-year-old medalist will be accepting his award. As reported by The Star.
Puzi told The Star in an interview that he never expected such an award as there were other athletes who had also done well In the Asian Para Games. He also added that he was honoured to bring home the award as the first Malaysian to do so.
View this post on Instagram
The inspirational athlete then thanked the National Sports Council as well as the National Paralympic Committee and singled out his personal coach R. Jaganathan. As extracted from The Star.
He also thanked his coach by saying "I wouldn't have done it without the guidance of coach Jaganathan," as quoted on The Star.
As quoted, Coach Jaganathan then responded "As a coach, I do feel really good to have helped para track and field athletes win all major golds. And I will continue to raise the level of our athletes."
Sevenpie would like to take this time to congratulate Puzi for his achievements! We have more to look forward to from this inspirational sportsman as he will be competing at the World Para Athlete Grand Prix in Italy on the 8th to 9th June and August 28th to 29th in France.

The artwork preparation is as essential as the act of painting the
piece. I construct shape and texture almost like a bas-relief from
ancient civilizations; fossilized relics encased in boxes, collections;
juxtaposing hard-edge geometric structures against free-flowing
organic forms. I build my pieces up layer upon layer, sand down, build up
again and sand down even more, eroding, unearthing, discovering interesting
surfaces, integrating and infusing the layers.

Introduction: Disassemble an ATI Centrifugal Fan
The fan in my Radeon 5970 started making funny noises the other day. Since it's still something of an expensive card, I wasn't about to just use it until it quit and possibly damage the electronics. So I ripped it apart and set about finding a replacement. The replacement turned out to be about $10, but in the process of finding it, I stumbled across a couple of people looking for instructions about how to take one apart to re-grease the bearing or otherwise make it last a little longer. Since I happened to have a fan I no longer cared about, I figured I'd see how they come apart. Personally I'd recommend getting a new fan since they're not very expensive, but for the hardcore penny-pinchers, here goes...
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: Remove the Fan Rotor
I didn't take pictures as I went since I wasn't sure if it would be possible without destroying the fan. But it turned out to be simple enough.
The first thing I did was to drill an exploratory hole in the hub of the rotor so that I could see what was inside and determine how it must have gone together. Since you are reading this, you can skip this part.
From looking inside, I could see that the motor assembly had been pressed into the fan. I drilled three more holes around the edge where I could see the metal ring that turned out to be the magnet. This allowed me to <u>gently</u> drive the motor out of the fan with a punch. If you choose to go this route, I recommend drilling the holes with just a drill bit and some persistence. If the bit is sharp it won't take long and you're less likely to slip and damage the guts of the thing.
Inspecting how the fan comes apart and goes back together, I am fairly certain that you could also take it apart with three small lever-type tools and help from a friend. Put the levers under the corners of the mounting bracket on the back of the motor and pop it out of there. Or, it might snap the tabs off. It takes a fair amount of force to remove the motor from the fan. Try it at your own risk. (I am reasonably certain that it will work though.)
Step 2:
Once you have it apart you should be able to clean the remainder of the old grease out of the bearings (the brass part in the middle) and replace it with the lubricant of your choice. Be sure to clean it thoroughly since some greases have incompatible chemistry and will either turn liquid and run out of the bearing, or turn solid and jam it up if they are mixed. I have no idea what the original grease in these things is. A can of spray electric motor cleaner works pretty well for cleaning and shouldn't damage the plastic parts or the insulation on the windings.
I usually use white lithium grease for this kind of application since it provides good lubrication and is non-conductive, but feel free to experiment. Non-conductive is kind of a must since you really don't want your lubricant shorting out your motor, so stay away from graphite. Teflon wouldn't be a bad choice. Automotive bearing grease would likely work as well. The tiny bit of grease that remained in mine had the consistency and texture of a lithium-based grease, but there wasn't much of it, so I can't be certain.
Note that replacing the grease may or may not actually reduce the noise. If the fan was chattering when you took it out, the bearing has probably already sustained some damage. Packing it full of a heavy automotive bearing grease may well be your best bet. You can do that with a gob of grease and a toothpick.
It appears that the bearing is pressed into a brass hub, so it may be possible to remove it, but I do not have a bearing-puller that small. If you do, be aware it looks like there may be ball bearings inside, so be sure not to lose them.
When you are done, press the magnet back into the fan (assuming you removed it) and then press the motor firmly back down on the axle. It should snap into place and stay put. With luck you'll be able to squeeze a bit more life out of the thing until you can effect a more permanent solution.

A few months ago, whispers about a test that would change the way brands advertise on Facebook started circulating industry blogs.
Rumor had it the social network was considering doing away with the "20% rule" regarding the amount of text allowed on ad images. It's a guideline that's caused advertisers on the platform much frustration, and many times a lot of additional work (so much so, that people have devised ways to beat the system).
In a blog post, Facebook marketer Mike Gingerich had this to say about the rule:
"I'm not able to print 20% of the bad words I've said while trying to create Facebook Ads without using Facebook image representations, using the word 'Facebook,' and making sure the text stays under that percentage."
Industry insider Jon Loomer isn't a big fan of the 20% text guideline either:
"First of all, Facebook's 20% rule that applies to the amount of text that can appear within images of News Feed ads is stupid. It's poorly enforced. It's inconsistent. It's ridiculous that it applies to link thumbnail images. Did I mention that I hate it?"
If you're like Mike and Jon, you'll be happy to know the rumors are true — Facebook did officially get rid of the rule for good.
Time to rejoice, right?
Not quite.
The old Facebook 20% text rule
Until recently, Facebook advertisers were allowed to cover their ad images with no more than 20% text. To adhere to guidelines, those who paid for reach on the platform were forced to use a tool developed by Facebook that divided ad images with a 25-rectangle grid (it's since been replaced with a different tool, but more on that later). If your text took up more than 20% of the rectangles, the ad wouldn't be allowed to run.
The tool was largely ineffective and depended on the position of the text more than it did the amount of text:
If you've never advertised on the platform, you're probably wondering what the big deal is.
What it comes down to is noisiness — news feed saturation. When any of Facebook's 1.65 billion users log into the platform, their networks share an average of 1,500 stories per day. That's 1,500 posts the social network's algorithm has to prioritize in your news feed.
Do you want to see the sonogram of your coworker's baby or the video of your cousin surfing the waves of San Diego? Would your rather read your mom's politically charged status update, or marvel at the watercolor self-portrait your friend just finished?
You don't get to decide, Facebook's algorithm does. And somewhere in there it needs to make room for advertisers. That's when text overlay on ad images comes into play.
The importance of text on Facebook ad images
If you want people to interact with your ad, you first have to get them to notice it. As we scroll through our Facebook feeds, quickly scanning for posts we want to consume, it's the ones containing bright, colorful imagery that stop our index finger in its tracks.
This should come as no surprise, considering research conducted almost 40 years ago indicates that we tend to notice images and headlines on a page first, then read bolded words after that, and consume block text last.
To take advantage of our natural attraction to images, many Facebook advertisers add CTAs to their ad photos, and compelling words like "free," "you," and "limited-time offer," knowing they'll be read more often than the actual post text.
Here's an example from WordStream:
The ability of posts like these to grab user's' attention is more important now than ever following Facebook's announcement that its news feed algorithm will be changed yet again to favor friends' content over advertisers.'
While many industry authorities cite using text overlay as a great way to draw social media users to a Facebook ad (including ourselves), some people, like the team over at SketchDeck, say that more text on an ad image actually plummets CTR.
After testing 48 Facebook ads to bust 6 marketing myths, here's what they found:
These results go against everything we've been told by industry insiders. Why would an ad that didn't clearly display its value proposition using text overlay perform better than one that did? Why would big, flashy text that reads "Free" or "Limited-time offer" turn us off?
The SketchDeck team has a guess:
"We think the ads with text overlaid looked, well, like ads. Users saw the text or call to action, registered it as an ad and then moved on. One of Facebook's tips is that an ad image should not look out of place in the news feed. And not many users are plastering text across the images that they posts."
Maybe that's the reason. But it's also worth noting that this test was conducted with a small sample size at an 80% level of significance, far below the widely accepted standard of 95%. So, these results are hardly proof of anything.
But, that doesn't mean they're altogether worthless. In fact, a recent update from a Facebook representative suggests the complete opposite.
The new Facebook text overlay rule
Not long ago, Facebook Product Marketing Manager, Afsheen Ali, reached out to Jon Loomer to officially address the rumors regarding the 20% text rule:
"Our research has shown that people demonstrate a preference for ads with less text. Previously, if 20% of an ad image's area was text, it was not approved to run on Facebook, Instagram or the Audience Network. We've heard from some advertisers that this can be confusing, as it's not always clear that an ad does not meet the policy requirements until after creative has been submitted. We are shifting to a new solution to improve this experience which allows advertisers more flexibility while still allowing us to maintain an enjoyable experience for people."
More flexibility for advertisers and an enjoyable user experience? It looks like a win-win at first glance. But, in reality, the 20% rule hasn't changed that much at all.
Under Facebook's new guidelines, an ad won't be outright rejected if it contains more than 20% text, but it will have its reach limited — in some cases significantly. Instead of using a "run or reject" system, Facebook will now categorize your ad according to the following ratings:
With Facebook's new text overlay tool, you can upload an image to see what the chances are it will have its reach restricted. We put a couple of our own images to the test…
They passed with flying colors.
So, we wondered, what would it take to get our ads' reach restricted? Determined to find out, we took a screenshot of one of our post-click landing pages for our new and improved post-click landing page optimization resource and uploaded it. It's almost entirely text:
Still, we only managed to reach Facebook's "Low" text rating:
Here are some more examples of what will, and will not be limited on the network under the new rule:
Image text: OK
Image Text: Low
Image Text: Medium
Image Text: High
As you can see, to get your ad's reach restricted, you really have to cram it full of text — especially since not all text counts toward the rule.
The following are exceptions, and DO NOT count as text on your ad image:
- Infographics
- Book/Album covers
- Product images in which the entire product can be seen
- Posters for movies, festivals, sporting events, and shows
- Legal text
- App screenshots
- Cartoon and comic strips
- Text-based business calligraphy
These, on the other hand, DO count as text on your image:
- Numbers
- Text-based logos
- Watermarks, regardless of whether or not their usage is mandatory
Should you still limit your image ad text?
Facebook says their users prefer ads with little to no text. Since Facebook controls ad reach and campaign cost on its platform, it's wise to follow the new rule — which doesn't offer as much flexibility as they'd have you believe.
Regardless, you'd have to try pretty hard to get your ad labeled as "Image Text: High." If you want your ads to get maximum reach, put your text in the actual post as opposed to on the image. Save a few choice compelling words to overlay, but don't go overboard.
Think about your unique selling proposition. What's going to draw your users in? Overlaying text like "free," "you," "new," and "instantly" will help your ad compete in users' news feeds with their friends' posts. Use it wisely and sparingly, and your ads will continue to run with maximum reach and at minimum CPC.

Asia Geopolitics at the Technological Frontier
Asia Society Japan Center
Asia Society Policy Salon Breakfast Meeting #4
Thursday, 7 March 2019
Dr. Jamie Metzl
"Asia Geopolitics at the Technological Frontier"
Asia Society Japan Center was honored to host Dr. Jamie Metzl to the Asia Society Policy Salon Tokyo (ASPST) breakfast roundtable to speak to us about Asia Geopolitics at the Techonological Frontier. More than a few of Asia 21 members can by. Please see the summary of his remarks.
Japan has an incredible story. It has gone from being a troublemaker to a beneficiary and builder of international order, and now is an indispensable leader fighting for the set of values that we all converge on. More is expected of Japan than ever before.
After WWII, the U.S. and other post-war planners analyzed that the primary illness of the late 19th to early 20th century world that led to the two world wars was that the conception of sovereignty had been too strong and that nationalism had been overexpressed. They reimagined a world organized around a positive set of values and institutions that would cool sovereignty and temper nationalism so that the world could share opportunities to grow and realize its best potential. This proved successful, as the period between 1945 and present has seen the greatest improvements in human history.
However, this post-war international order led by the U.S. and Europe, joined by Japan and other Asian allies, is now crumbling for multiple reasons. Firstly, U.S. power has decreased with the rise of others, but this no surprise, as the idea was that a strong community of thriving and interconnected democracies was needed in the face of the emerging Cold War. Secondly, political and capacity decentralization has become the trend. Thirdly, "the jungle grows back." Many of us are forgetting that history proved the balance of power world to be instable. Populism has returned to Europe. The U.S. President is hacking away from the edifice that we built, undermining our alliances with key allies. China is challenged with a mismatch between the speed of growth and the responsibilities that it is willing to or prepared to assume, as the U.S. experienced after WWI, when its political maturity had yet to catch up with its military and economic power.
As Antonio Gramsci said, "the old world is dying, the new world has not yet emerged, and in the twilight rises the monster." If we are to leave the post-war order that may not have been perfect but has worked well, we should at least have a sense of where we are transitioning.
Today, in addition to traditional diplomatic issues and national security, as well as economic knowledge, which increased its importance at the end of the Cold War, we need a profound understanding of technology and its implications. As our lives become highly digitized, the rate of change across society accelerates, partly because we no longer have to solve problems that have already been solved by others. Powerful technology enables countries to leapfrog, and not walk through the entire process of development.
As the world order as we know it crumbles, technology is empowering new competition between individuals, societies and states. This de-universalization of values is bifurcating the world into two competitive ecosystems, with the two poles of innovation and standards being Greater China and the U.S.. We are reverting to a balance of power world driven by technology, where competition can be either win-win or zero-sum.
We can witness this mainly in three areas: The first area is A.I., which is a force multiplier. While former President Obama was very focused on having a national A.I. plan, the Trump Administration had not prioritized A.I. until just a few weeks ago, and China recognizes its opportunities. This has huge implications for the military balance of power. China has taken advantage of its position as a late entrant and is moving aggressively toward the militarization of space, which the U.S. has officially been against, although President Trump has openly called for a U.S. Space Force. The militarization of space is paradoxical, as the development of an autonomous killer system is in effect launching a process of teaching algorithms to harm humans. Thirdly, we are on the verge of a genetic revolution, with more recognition that all of life can be changed and manipulated.
New technologies are being unleashed in a world that is less hinged on a shared understanding of where we should head, who we are and what we stand for. This is our greatest challenge. How do we build a common set of values, norms, laws and institutions that can take all of the challenges that we face and turn them into opportunities? It is more important than ever before to bring people together in dialogue as institutions like the International House, Asia Society, and the organizations that we represent have always done.
