CAPRICORN: You're inclined to resent someone with greater wisdom and experience for 'talking down' to you, today, Capricorn. Be strong enough to recognize the worth behind his or her opinions.
AQUARIUS: You have tremendous creative energy behind you to whip up a budget or financial plan that is not only out of the norm, but efficient. Although it's somewhat elusive at first to others, you really do have a method behind your madness. Trust it!
PISCES: You'll spend a great deal of time today clarifying your feelings about your personal beliefs. This could have to do with religion or simply a matter of philosophy.

Fernandez-Lafuente, R. AFFILIATIONS: Departamento de Biocatálisis, Instituto de Catálisis-CSIC, Campus UAM, Cantoblanco, 28049 Madrid, Spain
ABSTRACT: The moderate stability of enzymes is one of the main drawbacks that hinder general implementation of these interesting biocatalysts at industrial scale. An especially complex problem is the stabilization of multimeric proteins, where dissociation of the subunits produces enzyme inactivation and even product contamination. In this review, different strategies to stabilize multimeric enzymes at different levels are revised. First, the use of proper experimental conditions may facilitate the handling of the enzymes (ions, polymers, etc.). Second, genetic tools may be used to crosslink (via disulfide bonds) or just to reinforce the subunit-subunit interactions. The physical or chemical crosslinking of the enzyme subunits will be also discussed. Finally, the use of immobilization strategies (with or without pre-existing supports) will be discussed. Special emphasis will be put on the new immobilization strategies specifically designed to involve the maximum amount of enzyme subunits in the immobilization (and thus, in the further multipoint covalent attachment)

Marcus Gaither lives in East Orange, but he saw a three-family home in Newark he thought would be a good investment. Unfortunately, it was not fit to be lived in.
"It needed windows, doors, sinks, kitchen cabinets," he said. "It needed pretty much everything. It was a total rehab."
Gaither is a mortgage broker and had done his research on the lending industry. He knew about a mortgage that would let him buy the house and pay for the repair work before he moved in.
He purchased the property for $120,000 and made it livable.
"Some people are afraid to put themselves out as far as buying a property and making mistakes," he said. "I'm not afraid of the loan. I think it's a good one."
The loan he knows about — and few others do — is the little-heard of 203(k) mortgage. It's a primary mortgage that isn't based on what the house is worth, but what it will be worth after repairs are made. It's available to everyone, including first-time homebuyers, but fewer than 300 have been approved so far this year in New Jersey.
"Most lenders want a house a buyer can move right into without any issues," said David Stein, a partner in Residential Home Funding. "In the case of 203(k)s, properties can be rehabilitated at the same time the buyer purchases it."
The 203(k) was begun by the federal government in the 1970s to help rehabilitate distressed neighborhoods.
The loans, which are insured by the Federal Housing Administration, are also available as refinance instruments that can be used for upgrades or purchases such as new windows. The minimum loan amount is $5,000.
Stein said the process is similar to getting a construction loan.
"Once a contractor has submitted an estimate and an appraiser from the Housing and Urban Development signs off," he said, "the money is placed in an escrow account. The contractor gets paid as he completes the work."
Stein said a lot of real estate agents don't know about 203(k)s.
"We try to get the message out to our real estate partners, especially after (Tropical Storm) Irene and (Hurricane) Sandy. Because of those storms, we're doing more 203(k)s than ever before."
Stein said the number approved 203(k) loans with his company rose between 2010 and 2011 by 70 percent, but fell in 2012 as homeowners wait for FEMA and insurance funding to come through before making a decision on their home.
Statewide, the number has dropped as well. According to Lemar Woolley, a HUD spokesman, approved loans peaked in New Jersey at 894 in 2010, then fell to 797 in 2011, and 651 in 2012. As of May, 288 loans had been approved by HUD.
By comparison, however, it hardly registers as a drop in the bucket — about 92,700 single-family homes were sold in the first three months alone of this year in New Jersey.
"There might be a misbelief that it's more difficult to get or it might delay the closing, neither of which is true," said Doug Radford, a partner with Realty Executives in Fairfield.
The loan requires a 3.5 percent down payment, but that number is based on the total sale price plus rehabilitation costs. Interest rates are comparable to a traditional mortgage. The 203(k) loans require a credit score of 640, which is slightly higher than a standard FHA mortgage.
It can also be used to refinance an existing loan to make improvements on a home.
The home equity loan is still the smarter way to consolidate debt, but it is based on the equity in the home, which is determined by subtracting the amount of debt on the house from the home's market value. In most cases, the loan is 80 percent of that figure.
With a 203(k) loan, the borrower can request more money because the equity is based on the value of the home after the upgrades are made, not before.
When Radford meets a client he thinks would benefit from this type of loan, he asks them, "Have you heard about the 203(k) mortgage?
"Usually they say 'no,' Then I say, 'You should talk to a lender.' "

Got the magnificent giant-sized hardcover "Dream of the Rarebit Fiend" by Winsor McCay this weekend!
And WOW! this is really everything I had hoped for!
Excellent production quality! Sharp and professional restorations and well researched.
You can tell that Ulrich Merkl who made the book really put his heart and soul into this.
While much has been written about the book already (See links below.) I thought I should share some photos so you'll get an idea of what it looks like. (Click on pics to enlarge.)
First we have the package. Notice the red Rarebit Fiends stamps. :)
As you can see it's very, very well packaged to make secure it's safe from dents and water.
And here it is. A giant brick of a book!
Just to compare size I placed a "normal" reprint book on top of it...
Following are some interior pages. As you can see it's both color and black and white reproductions inside. Fully annotated so you'll catch all references to things well known back then. Besides the actual Rarebit pages it's filled with rare stuff for the McCay fan.
Here are some links if you've missed the buzz:
TCJ message board
To order the book just visit Ulrich Merkls website
Only 1000 produced... So, what are you wating for? :)
PS. I read it in bed before going to sleep yesterday.
You can only imagine the weird nightmares I had...

We celebrated our second anniversary in China, and our first anniversary at Reno Dance Sensation, which made the expectations for this year very high.

Following newspiece appeared in New Orleans in April 1864:
[NEW ORLEANS] DAILY PICAYUNE, April 21, 1864
Jayhawking in St. Landry.
The following is from the Plaquemine (Iberville parish) Gazette and Sentinel, of the 11th inst.:
We had a conversation a few days since with a gentleman who resides near Opelousas. He had just arrived here, or at the Park, with a flatboat load of cotton. He gives a terrible picture of affairs in that parish, growing out of the outrages and depredations of the Jayhawkers. They are banded together, he says, in large numbers, mostly young men, the majority of whom have served in both armies, but having proved traitors to both, make outrage depredation upon the peaceful citizens their profession and their support. In self-defence the citizens are forced to unite for their protection and for the extermination of those lepers—one of the curses springing out of civil strife, and one of the terrible evidences of the demoralization resulting through it.
Several of these marauders were caught and shot a few days since, one of whom was a very young man, and met death in a fearful manner, through his cries and supplications; he had to be shot twice. A few days previous the jayhawkers were pounced upon in their camp, routed and dispersed, and several killed. Ten thousand pounds of good bacon, horses, arms, etc., were captured. Our informant was present and had several balls put into his horse. The jayhawkers show no mercy to their victims, but take all they have, even to leaving them naked. They robbed an old widow lady but a few days back, taking every thing she had, even to her clothing, leaving her in a semi-nude condition. She was rich, and the miscreants found out where her money and plate were only after the old lady had been tied to the tail of a horse and the animal had actually started off with her, when she divulged the place of its concealment. This diabolical act gave renewed indignation among the people, and active measures were taken to ferret out the villains. At length, on last Friday week, a young man was observed endeavoring to sell some article which a bystander recognized as having belonged to the old lady above mentioned. A party was soon collected together. The man confessed his guilt after he found it was useless to deny it; he divulged where the old lady's valuables were to be found; and a few minutes afterwards he was shot, and, by his request, in the back.
Our informant is known to gentlemen in this town, whom we should judge to be a man of reliability.
Civil War Louisiana
The goal of Civil War Louisiana is to provide an online resource of information and links to our great state's involvement in the war. Topics expected to be commonly covered are: Battles fought in Louisiana, battles that Louisianians participated in, unit histories, rosters, uniforms and equipment of Louisiana soldiers, personalities to include not only the leadership of the state and armies but the common soldier, flags and resources to research/read on the state's role in the war. Civil War Louisiana seeks to also elaborate on the history of Union soldiers' role in Louisiana - their experiences, their perception of Louisiana's culture, climate, wildlife, etc., are all interesting materials as well.____________________________________________

Not even magic can stop the end of 'Harry Potter'
It seems that Harry Potter has cast a spell on our hearts, minds and our checkbooks. The famous dark-haired, be spectacled, fictional boy, who poured out of J.K. Rowling's colorful imagination, has single-handedly turned a generation of TV-loving, internet-obsessed young people into readers. And on top of that, young Harry has recaptured the love of reading in adults, too. And so it is with a huge slice of disappointment that the epic series of Harry Potter books has come to an end with the final installment, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows."
Book No. 7 was released at 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, July 21, and on that day alone it sold 8.3 million copies. More than 2,000 of those were purchased at Bookshop Santa Cruz in downtown. It was there, at one minute past the stroke of midnight that hordes of Harry Potter fans cashed in their vouchers and clutched their new treasures. Children and adults went home that night and likely stayed up into the wee hours to pore over the fate of their beloved Harry.
Here at GT, I didn't get the book until my roommate forked it over a few days later, after she read it. And I, like everyone else who is a fan, have been sucked into the new tome. And a tome it is. The book clocks in at 759 pages, and once you're in, you're in. You can't get out. Like all of the other books in this series, it seems to possess some sort of magical, captivating power that forces you to breeze through the novel, unable to drop it for a minute. In fact, the addiction to these books becomes so strong, that when you're away from the book, you find yourself wondering what happens next. There must be wizardry in the air.
For those who've been immune to the Harry Potter spell, this strange addiction to a book, in fact to a whole series of books, may sound peculiar. And those who are repelled by 'fantasy stories' may even go so far as to call us fans 'dorky.' (Trust me, I've heard the name calling from amused people who just don't 'get it.') But, as all of us know, one chapter into the first Harry Potter book and those naysayers will be enchanted.
So, what's the draw? "I think it's the magic," says Susan McCloskey, events coordinator for Bookshop Santa Cruz. "It's the world she's created where imaginations get to come to life again. … They [the Harry Potter books] touch a deep core, good versus evil, politics, power and how it's all going to end."
But can you compare them to, say, the Narnia books, Tolkien's tales, or the Oz stories? "I think for the popularity of the series alone, you have to," says Janet Leimeister, event manager of the Capitola Book Café. "I'm not quite a scholar enough to say whether time will weigh them against someone like C.S. Lewis and Tolkien, but you can't knock it for being a great introduction to people into becoming readers. The sensation of Harry Potter is opening the doors into readers' minds into what's out there."
But back to Harry: Right now, today, he's the most exciting thing in modern day literature. McCloskey says that the day after the book went on sale, she was on a train going up to San Francisco and literally everyone around her was absorbed in reading the book.
We're muggles, after all—we're easy to entertain. For those uninitiated among us, 'muggles' are those of the non-wizardry population. The wizard folk are those like Harry and his two best pals, Hermione and Ron.
In this seventh book, and the final novel of the series, Harry is on his greatest quest yet. He's out to kill Lord Voldemort, or 'He Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.'
Meanwhile, Voldemort is out to kill Harry. Simply put—they both can't live at the same time. One of them must kill the other. If Voldemort wins the epic battle, darkness and evil will reign, whereas if our hero Harry is the champion, goodness and light will triumph. (It's pretty obvious whom we're rooting for here.)
In nail-biting fashion, the book is a tribute to page-turners. By page two, you're hooked. In "Deathly Hallows," we find the secrets to some of our long-asked questions and we discover the fate of our boy, Harry Potter.
Yet in the end, as fans, there's something very depressing about knowing that you're embarking on your final journey with Harry Potter. Rowling, who by now is the richest woman in Britain, has taken her wand and tapped 'the end' upon our beloved series of books. And what does that 'end' hold? We won't spoil it for you. You'll need to embark on that magical adventure on your own.

Miniature trees are originally rooted in the mountains of China, where only a specific species of plants and trees grow. Because of its hostile weather conditions, the trees were often stunted and contorted. The strong mountain winds also left these trees twisted in ice and the cold. Essentially, it is nature that has rendered the inspiration for the art of potting trees as students of the art do their best to mimic what nature has created. By "training" trees through specialized means of pruning and shaping them to a desired height and structure, these students of the art were able to recreate the sample nature has provided.
Bonsai, a Japanese term for "miniature potted trees", actually originated from the Chinese. Called "pensai" in China, these miniature trees first appeared in artworks and poems in this Asian country in 200 B.C. Early own, the mini-tree, or rather, the work of art, has already become a symbol of harmony and tranquility. Chinese Monks and the nobles or upper class, who appreciated the beauty and significance of plants and trees or nature in general, cultivated mini-landscapes of mountains, rivers and little tree houses placed on big plates. Sometime in the 15th or 16th century, this artistic hobby grew among the people of Southeast China. Many of them have become master designers and experts of the art of tree potting. What was first known as a hobby for Chinese artists, monks and nobles in those days became a significant part of modern day Japanese tradition.
How this came to Japan was made possible through the officials of the Japanese government, who often come to China at the height of the Tang Dynasty and have brought the art back home. During the Kamakura period, while Zen Buddhism was introduced in Japan, these Zen masters also introduced the hobby of tree potting to its people. As a result, it became widely popular among the wealthy class (daimyos or feudal lords), the merchants and even the Samurais. In addition to this, daimyos even sought pottery masters on their employ, to make one of kind pots for their miniature plants.
Initially popular among the Japanese priests, the ruling class and those on the upper hierarchy, Bonsai eventually reached popularity with the middle class. As Japanese culture and their way of living dictates it, where the Japanese have always believed in keeping a harmonious relationship with their surroundings as beneficial, miniature gardening became one of Japan's favorite pastimes. The fact that these potted trees took up just a small space inside the house was also compatible with how the Japanese lived. It was during these times too, that the word "bonsai" was coined.
Today, the art of Bonsai is still practiced in China. It is characteristically different from the Japanese versions as they are somewhat bigger than the popular Japanese Bonsai. And while thinking of potted trees, one easily attributes this to Japan, the hobby/art form appeals not only to the people of the East today, but students and enthusiasts all over the world have also become devotees to the art of tree potting.

What is honor killing ?
Definition: An honor killing or honour killing(also called a customary killing) is the murder of a family or clan member by one or more fellow family members, where the murderers (and potentially the wider community) believe the victim to have brought dishonor upon the family, clan, or community.
In India, the news of honor killings makes headlines every now and then. Recently, the Khap Mahapanchayat, the apex body of khaps or traditional Jat caste councils in Haryana, western UP and parts of rural Delhi, was in line with it and the demand for a stringent Law(Sati-like) to curb the Honor Killings in the name of Gotra, Caste, religion, culture and adultery in INDIA again surfaced from various corners of society and personalities. The honor killing of any form in any civilized society cannot be accepted as it is humanity that is killed and I fully endorse the same.
IPC 498a is a legalized HONOUR KILLING of husbands & in-laws in India
The registration of non cognizable criminal case and arresting whole family on mere wild allegations from wife without testing the veracity of complaint with any kind of proofs has surely puts the gender biased IPC 498a in the spectrum of legalized HONOUR KILLING.
More & more husbands are falling pray to false 498a as it's now working on the analogy of fashion among unscrupulous wives to book their husbands & in-laws under 498a to dictate their terms. These wives are not only harassing their husbands but whole family of in-laws, even distant relatives of husbands are made to feel the heat of criminal case by filing false complaint under 498a.The recent glaring example of misuse of 498a in India is a Shoaib-Sania saga. Was there any issue of dowry prohibition in this case?
The wife files frivolous complaint under 498a against her husband and in-laws to take revenge(honor salvaging) for not bowing down to her unwanted demands or tries to fulfill her greedy desires, however, on the other hand, the innocent husband and in-laws looses their hard earned honor over the years in society and undergoes the trauma of criminal case trial. The social bashing, doomed future and sense of responsibility(to bring uncalled problem in family) creates an unbearable pressure on husband and his family which many a times results in either one or two suicides in family.
So isn't the IPC 498a, a legalized HONOUR KILLING of husbands & in-laws in India in the name of Dowry Prohibition?
Yes, the Honor killing is most condemnable so is IPC 498a.
IPC 498a should be scrapped
The Indian Government should first delegalize this honor killing of husbands in India by scrapping off the IPC 498a and then to think of bringing in any stringent law to curb the honor killings of any form? There can't be double standards on Government part that on one side keeping promoting and legalizing HONOUR KILLING of husbands & in-laws under IPC 498a and on the other side bringing in yet another Law to curb HONOUR KILLING.
Moreover, Even after 27 years of enforcement of this Dowry prohibition law-498a( in the year 1983) in India, the feminists and government claim that the dowry menace is ever increasing as the complaints under 498a is increasing and treats the figures of 498a registered cases as the awareness indicator among women folks about their rights. Here, they are not realizing the factual truth about this increase which is it's large scale misuse by women in India as it became an easy tool to settle personal scores and extortion from in-laws.
Even if their view is to be believed then what's the use of this law which is unable to reduce the dowry menace in India even after 27 years of its applicability and is only promoting HONOUR KILLING?
Jai Hind !

Throughout the US, asthma rates have been steadily increasing over the last few decades. According to the CDC, the rates of self-reported asthma conditions rose 75% between 1980 and 1994 (doctor's visits more than doubled between 1975 and 1990). Today, an estimated 15 million Americans deal with this condition.
While scientists still have nothing conclusive to explain why asthma is becoming more prevalent, new research is being conducted exploring potential connections between asthma and bacteria. In the last ten years, studies in both the US and Copenhagen have shown that infants born to asthmatic mothers have a different variety of bacteria in their lungs and guts than those born to non-asthmatics. Likewise, different bacteria exists for those born naturally versus those delivered through C-section. And, again, for those living in highly sterile environments.
If this research is considered in connection with asthma experiments conducted on rats, the bacteria-asthma connection becomes stronger. Rats exposed to yeast and mold spores had a greater incidence of developing asthma when they were also given an antibiotic drug.
There is still much work to be done, but it does raise the question of whether the significant increase of antibiotic hand-washes, toys, and cleaners that has occurred in the last two decades has had an unintended effect on our health. Likewise, it raises questions about whether we'll find physical evidence to support the long-argued claim that eating certain foods affects asthma symptoms.

From Open Electrical
A transformer is a device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another through inductively coupled conductors—the transformer's coils. A varying current in the first or primary winding creates a varying magnetic flux in the transformer's core and thus a varying magnetic field through the secondary winding. This varying magnetic field induces a varying electromotive force (EMF), or "voltage", in the secondary winding. This effect is called inductive coupling.

Issue 15Uncategorized
Honoring Notorious Gladys Bentley
In celebrating Women's History Month, I want to personally celebrate the courage and strength of sistah-warrior Gladys Bentley (1907-1960).
Bentley, a 250-pound African-American lesbian (who today we would consider transgender), was known as "America's Greatest Sepia Piano Player" and the "Brown Bomber of Sophisticated Songs."
Her fall from the entertainment spotlight, however, is a cautionary tale about what can happen to us during a repressive political era when both church and state are our enemies.
A talented pianist and blues singer, and one of the most notorious and successful entertainers during the Harlem Renaissance, Bentley cultivated a large GLBT following up until the 1950s. As an African-American woman whose success derived from her raunchy and salacious lyrics to popular tunes, Bentley not only openly sang about sex, but she also openly lived and celebrated her sexual orientation as an out lesbian.
"It seems I was born different. At least, I always thought so," Bentley told Ebony magazine back in the '50s. From the time I can remember anything, even as I was toddling, I never wanted a man to touch me. Soon I began to feel more comfortable in boys' clothes than in dresses."
Known to perform in her infamous white tuxedo and top hat, Bentley's gender-bending would label her by today's queer lexicon as a "stone butch." But in black queer parlance of that era, she was a "bulldagger." And the police constantly harassed her for wearing men's clothing.
In the '50s, the country was on a campaign to restore traditional gender roles that were disrupted by World War II, and McCarthyism was its policing mechanism. Special attention, however, was given to GLBT people.
In February of 1950, McCarthy captured the nation's attention with its anti-communist propaganda that the State Department was riddled with card-carrying members of the Communist party. Just two years prior, in 1948, the House of Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) had its most infamous case: the indictment of Alger Hiss. With the passing of the McCarran Act in 1950 all noted communists were registered as foreign agents, denied passports, and excluded from employment in both the government and in the defense industry. The witch-hunting did not only target real and imagined communists, but it also targeted the nation's GLBT population, with a vengeance.
With the absence of 16 million men, predominately white, in the workforce because of the war, women, and ethnic and queer minorities filled those vacancies.
Women of the time not only transgressed traditional career opportunities, but also traditional dress codes. Women wearing pants to work and on the street, and their availability to purchase pants in department stories, gave women the freedom to dress down and still be viewed as acceptable.
For gender-bending lesbians like Bentley, the wearing of pants — usually confined to the privacy of their homes, lesbian bars and on the performance stages — was a welcomed freedom. However, without the consent of the times, except in the private and acceptable spaces where pants were permissible, Bentley wore pants since the '20s.
As troubling as that was, especially given her public lesbianism, Bentley accosted the sanctity of marriage with her active participation in this country's racial and gender obsession — interracial marriage — to her white girlfriend.
Had her "woman-friend" been African-American, their coupling would have clearly been subjected to condemnation and jeering, but their same-gender loving relationship would not have conjured up the wrath, fear and disgust that interracial marriage did. With anti-miscegenation laws operating in all states until 1967, and with GLBT people today being denied the right of both state and church weddings, Bentley single-handedly performed a coup d'etat against the institution of marriage and the prohibition against miscegenation. She married her white girlfriend in a civil wedding ceremony.
To punish her, the forces of McCarthyism and the Black Church made Bentley conform. For supposedly taking female hormones to cure her of her lesbianism, Bentley wrote an article for Ebony magazine proclaiming, "I am woman again!"
The Black Church stopped railing against her, and the black press lauded her conformity. Now as a churchwoman and ordained minister, the ceremonial act of compulsory heterosexuality had to be consummated. She married a man, albeit 16 years her junior.
With the church's belief in a heterosexual paradigm as the model to showcase black humanity in order to win God-given civil rights, the dynamic between the black press and the Black Church set up a new sexual McCarthyism.
The cautionary tale here is that it is not so different today.

On this day May 23, 1498
Girolamo Savonarola is burned at the stake in Florence, Italy, on the orders of Pope Alexander VI.
On May 13, 1497, the rigorous Father Savonarola was excommunicated by Pope Alexander VI, and in 1498, Alexander demanded his arrest and execution. On April 8, a crowd attacked the Convent of San Marco.
A bloody struggle ensued, during which several of Savonarola's guards and religious supporters were killed. Savonarola surrendered along with Fra Domenico da Pescia and Fra Silvestro, his two closest associates. Savonarola was faced with charges such as heresy, uttering prophecies, sedition, and other crimes, called religious errors by the Borgia pope.
During the next few weeks all three were tortured on the rack, the torturers sparing only Savonarola's right arm in order that he might be able to sign his confession. All three signed confessions, Savonarola doing so sometime prior to May 8.
On that day he completed a written meditation on the Miserere mei, Psalm 50, entitled Infelix ego, in which he pleaded with God for mercy for his physical weakness in confessing to crimes he believed he did not commit. On the day of his execution, May 23, 1498, he was still working on another meditation, this one on Psalm 31, entitled Tristitia obsedit me.
On the day of his execution he was taken out to the Piazza della Signoria along with Fra Silvestro and Fra Domenico da Pescia. The three were ritually stripped of their clerical vestments, degraded as "heretics and schismatics", and given over to the secular authorities to be burned. The three were hanged in chains from a single cross and an enormous fire was lit beneath them.
They were thereby executed in the same place where the "Bonfire of the Vanities" had been lit, and in the same manner that Savonarola had condemned other criminals himself during his own reign in Florence. Jacopo Nardi, who recorded the incident in his Istorie della città di Firenze, wrote that his executioner lit the flame exclaiming, "The one who wanted to burn me is now himself put to the flames." Luca Landucci, who was present, wrote in his diary that the burning took several hours, and that the remains were several times broken apart and mixed with brushwood so that not the slightest piece could be later recovered.

Casino Park is casino-themed area on Sonic's World, and is known to be home to an establishment run by Breezie the Hedgehog. It is located in Empire City.
Metal Sonic, under the disguise of Dr. Eggman, built Casino Park to double as both a new casino empire for Breezie and an elaborate death trap for Sonic and his friends. Breezie called Metal Sonic's bluff with his disguise, but genuinely thanks Metal for his help. Breezie subsequently set up shop in the area, and organized the Chaos Emerald Championship after locating the green Chaos Emerald. (VG: SH, StH: #270, SU: #66)

Helping to lower costs and provide risk management assistance.
Published on December 25, 2016, the RIA TR R15.606-2016, like its ISO predecessor ISO/TS 15066:2016, provides safety guidance for collaborative industrial robot systems where a robot system and people share the same workspace.
What the Technical Report Covers :
- Collaborative Industrial Robot System Design (including Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment)
- Requirements for Collaborative Robot System Applications (including Control System, Workspace, Robot Operation, Transitions between Collaborative and Non-Collaborative, Collaborative Operations)
- Verification & Validation
- Information for Use (specific to Collaborative Robot Operation, System, Workplace Application & Task, Power & Force Limiting Applications)
- How to establish threshold limit values on the collaborative robot system, particularly on power and force limiting applications
RIA TR R15.606-2016 provides safety guidance for collaborative industrial robot systems. Effective use of TR 606 assumes that the robot system under consideration is in compliance with ANSI/RIA R15.06-2012.
Collaborative robots refers to the repetitive performance of robots when combined with the individual skills and ability of people. In collaborative robot operations, while power to the robot's actuators is available, operators can work within a collaborative workspace either in close proximity to the robot system or in physical contact with it. By leveraging the capability of people to solve imprecise exercises combined with the precision, power and endurance of robots, collaborative robots offer advantages and expanded capabilities in the workplace.

And you shall hallow the fiftieth year and you shall proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you: you shall return, every one of you, to your property and every one of you to your family. Leviticus 25:10
In 1751 the Speaker of the Pennsylvania Assembly, Isaac Norris, ordered a bell from London to be hung in the tower of the Pennsylvania State House.
That bell (later known as the Liberty Bell) was inscribed with a partial quote from Leviticus 25:10, "Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land Unto All the Inhabitants thereof."
The bell cracked on the first test ring.
Local metalworkers melted down that bell and cast a new one. This bell held for a number of years but eventually it cracked as well.
It was once again repaired in 1846, prior to George Washington's birthday holiday. The bell rang that day but then a second crack running from the abbreviation for "Philadelphia" up through the word "Liberty", silenced the bell forever.
Because of this, the Liberty Bell did not ring at the reading of the Declaration of Independence and perhaps this is best.
The Declaration of Independence, much like the partial scripture inscribed on the Liberty Bell, are carefully manipulated words proclaiming a freedom withheld from many through the actions of white supremacy. Ironically, the State House bell was not renamed Liberty because it tolled for freedom. It was renamed Liberty, by abolitionists seeking to end slavery, precisely because it did not.
The silencing of a bell that offers comforting words of freedom highlights our nation's hypocrisy illuminated in the words of Frederick Douglass during his Fourth of July address of 1852: "Fellow-citizens, above your national, tumultuous joy, I hear the mournful wail of millions... Whether we turn to the declarations of the past, or to the professions of the present, the conduct of the nation seems equally hideous and revolting. America is false to the past, false to the present, and solemnly binds herself to be false to the future."
Our declarations of freedom rang out while we continued to demonize and marginalize black and brown bodies, women's bodies, gender non-conforming bodies, LGTBQ bodies, bodies living with disabilities and poor bodies. Voices muted by those who sought to withhold the very freedom from religious persecution on which this country was founded. This is indeed enough to silence the toll of Liberty.
Our lack of adequate health care, clean drinking water, adequate housing and food for every citizen in a country where resources are not scarce is enough to silence the toll of Liberty.
The Liberty Bell, its inscription and its breach, serve to remind us that freedom is often proclaimed yet seldom advanced, and until we dedicate ourselves to the holy work of repairing the breach between what we say and what we do, freedom cannot ring.

1. Which of the following groups contain only biodegradable items?
(a) Grass, flowers and leather
(b) Grass, wood and plastic
(c) Fruit-peels, cake and lime-juice
(d) Cake, wood and grass
ANSWER: - (c) Fruit-peels, cake and lime-juice
(d) Cake, wood and grass
2. Which of the following constitute a food-chain?
(a) Grass, wheat and mango
(b) Grass, goat and human
(c) Goat, cow and elephant
(d) Grass, fish and goat
ANSWER-: (b) Grass, goat and human
3. Which of the following are environment-friendly practices?
(a) Carrying cloth-bags to put purchases in while shopping
(b) Switching off unnecessary lights and fans
(c) Walking to school instead of getting your mother to drop you on her scooter
(d) All of the above
ANSWER :- ( d) All of the above
4. What will happen if we kill all the organisms in one trophic level?
ANSWER:-If we kill all the organisms of one trophic level it will create an imbalance in the ecosystem.
5. Will the impact of removing all the organisms in a trophic level be different for different trophic levels? Can the organisms of any trophic level be removed without causing any damage to the ecosystem?
ANSWER:-Impact of removing all organisms of a trophic level is different for different trophic levels. For example, if we remove producers from a food chain, no organism will get food, if we remove herbivores from a food chain then carnivores will die and producers will also die due to competition for space and nutrients. No, we can't remove any trophic level without causing damage to the ecosystem as one is dependent on other for their survival. If we remove any one this will create imbalance in the ecosystem.
6. What is biological magnification? Will the levels of this magnification be different at different levels of the ecosystem?
ANSWER:-Biological magnification is defined as the phenomena of accumulation or increase in the concentration of some toxic substances at each trophic level. The levels of bio-magnifications will be different at different trophic levels. For example, in a pond of water, DDT was sprayed and the producers were found to have 0.04 ppm concentration of DDT. Since many types of planktons are eaten by some fishes and clams, their body accumulates 0.23 ppm of DDT. Sea gull that feeds on clams accumulates more DDT as one sea gull eats many clams. Hawk, the top carnivore, has the highest concentration of DDT.
7. What are the problems caused by the non- biodegradable wastes that we generate?
ANSWER: - → The cause bio-magnifications.
→ They increase pollution.
→ They make environment unclean.
→ They kill useful microorganisms.
8. If all the waste we generate is biodegradable, will this have no impact on the environment?
ANSWER:-If all the waste generated would be biodegradable this will also create problem. As the numbers of decomposers will be quite low so wastes cannot be broken down into harmless simpler substance at right time. It will become breeding ground for flies causing spread of diseases.
9. Why is damage to the ozone layer a cause for concern? What steps are being taken to limit this damage?
ANSWER:-The damage to the ozone layer a cause for concern because:
→ It causes skin darkening, skin cancer, ageing, and corneal cataracts in human beings.
→ It can result in the death of many phytoplankton that leads to increased global warming.
To limit the damage to the ozone layer, the release of CFCs into the atmosphere must be reduced. CFCs used as refrigerants and in fire extinguishers should be replaced with environmentally-safe alternatives.

Africa, a place of spectacular beauty, continues to conjure up extreme images: of a paradisal Eden and of a conflict-ridden, disease-afflicted "dark continent". In reality, Africa is resilient and, despite continuing challenges, is currently on the move in the areas of economic development, conflict resolution and democratic governance.
Africa has been the second-fastest growing region in the world after Asia in the past decade and its population of nearly 1 billion consumers will provide an important future global market. As the editorial in last week's Observer noted: "Europe and the UK have been slow to adjust to the rise of an Africa powered by economic growth and a burgeoning consumer boom."
China, unlike the west, is investing heavily in Africa's infrastructure sectors – roads, railways, electricity – and has established a strong presence in its extractive sectors.
I am a Nigerian and my area of expertise is conflict resolution. Long-running conflicts in Liberia, Sierra Leone, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and south Sudan have been largely brought to an end, while the new state of South Sudan is close to being born following a peaceful referendum. While many of these conflicts have been calmed through the help of the United Nations, regional bodies such as the Economic Community of West African States and the African Union (AU) have also sacrificed blood and treasure in a bid to achieve Pax Africana.
Nigeria and South Africa have been leading peacekeeping missions and seeking to promote regional integration. Other potential powers include the DRC in Central Africa, Kenya in East Africa and Algeria in North Africa.
In the area of governance, between 1960 and 1990, only four civilian leaders in Africa voluntarily handed over power, while no ruling party lost power. However, since the end of the cold war, ruling parties in Ghana, Senegal, Kenya, and Zambia have been voted out. Seventeen elections will take place in Africa this year. Military regimes from Togo, Mauritania, Madagascar and Niger have been sanctioned by the AU, while "people's revolutions" have toppled long-ruling despots in Egypt and Tunisia, even as another currently challenges Tripoli's tyrant, Gaddafi.
To improve governance, African leaders created an African Peer Review Mechanism in 2003 which 30 countries have joined. The system involves governments, civil society and the private sector and encourages countries to adopt sound policies, priorities and standards for political and economic development.
Africans continue to pursue the quest to break the chains of "global apartheid" by seeking greater influence within inequitable international institutions such as the UN, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the World Trade Organisation. America and Europe still spend more than $150bn annually on agricultural subsidies in a sector in which 70% of Africans find employment. These structural obstacles must be urgently removed to ensure that the quest for Africa's renaissance is realised.

Neos Feelings Ruby Cherry Flavoured Cigars (Tin of 10 Filtered Cigars)
- Length: 85mm
- Full Leaf Filler
- Filtered Cigar
- Cherry Flavoured
Neos Full Leaf Filler:
The full leaf range from Neos is new to the UK for 2016 and replaces the former broken leaf filler Cigar that has been around in the UK for many years. The former Cigar was aimed at the budget conscious smoker but after much feedback from our customers it was decided that the UK Cigar smoker wants the better quality Cigar so with great delight we can now offer you the full leaf version which smokes longer, smoother and cooler making them one of the finest miniature Cigars on the market.
Neos Feeling Ruby:
The Neos feelings Ruby are produced from a blend of Burley and Virginia, which have been infused with rich flavours of ripe Black Cherry before being finished with the highly sort after Java Besuki wrapper, which adds even more flavour and character to these cracking miniature cigars.
The Neos Cherry feelings are a mild filtered cigar, which are ideal for a day time smoke or whenever the feeling arises. They do not require cutting and can be smoked straight out of the tin.

Having problems with your IBM ThinkPad G40 2384 Notebook ?
How to reset a password it doesn't open at all & ask for a password i missed
Answers :
The easiest way is to boot with the windows cd and go through the installation. After the first reboot watch for Installing Devices over the progress bar. When that appears press shift+f10. A console will open and then you type nusrmgr.cpl. From there you get the graphical interface for changing users so it is fairly obvious what to do from there.

I have been a midwife for many years in the UK and have had clients trying a variety of creams and strategies for healing their sore, cracked or bleeding nipples. However, it wasn't until I started working at Annerley, that I became aware of Silverettes (or Breast Angels).
Silverettes are made in Italy from silver 925 and they are little magical nipple covers. Silver has natural antibacterial and disinfecting properties. helping to prevent infection and the moist healing environment aids with fast healing of damaged nipples. To use – just squirt a little of your breast milk into the cup and place over your nipple, inside your bra, between feeds.
The breastmilk inside the cups helps with moist healing and the cup prevents rubbing and irritation from clothing.
No need for any other creams or products so nothing is being ingested by baby.
Extremely hygienic – clean with a little water and bicarbonate of sod, and air dry.
Eco-friendly – can be safely passed on to other mums after you have finished with them. Or keep for your next baby.
Sore nipples can often be a result of poor positioning of baby at the breast and then the help from a certified IBCLC lactation consultant is invaluable. I have seen first hand the (sometimes miraculous) difference these little silver cups can make within a few days, accompanied by correction of baby's position and latch at the breast.
Sue x
Sue Pollard is a registered midwife and IBCLC lactation consultant at Annerley the midwives clinic www.annerley.com.hk
Silverettes can be bought directly from the Breast Angels UK website or from us in our clinic shop – see here for details.

When I turned 18 we organised something special to do as a family. So my parents, my sisters, one of my brothers and I were booked to go and see The Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty's Theatre in the West End.
I had never been to see any kind of show so this was very exciting. My siblings have all lived in the London area at some point in their lives, but at this time I had not often been to the busy centre of London with all the tourist sights, the atmosphere and the glamour of the West End.
There was a change to our plans however – circumstances taking the dramatic turn they did, it ended up that the evening we had booked to go was the day of Princess Diana's funeral. It was unprecedented, and for the first time, the theatres closed and all performances were cancelled. We had to reschedule.
Sadly only one of my sisters and her then boyfriend could attend the performance with my parents and me – none the less it was a lovely evening. This was the first time of two that I have seen Phantom in London, the second being in 2000 when my Brazilian penpal came over to England to meet me. (The original production of The Phantom of the Opera opened on October 9th 1986 – so 2009 is its 23rd year!) I had never been to anything like it and the excitement was palpable. I am a country girl, so it was an unusual occurrence to be in the hub of the capital city.
From the opening of the first act, I was utterly transfixed. It is difficult to explain the impact to those who have merely seen the film version, because so much of it, it seems to me, is designed for the stage. The great chandelier rising up above our heads and the thrilling crashing down at the end of Act 1 – this is for the theatre (I should add here that I say 'cinema' where Americans would say 'movie theatre', so when I talk of 'going to the theatre' I'm talking about stage plays, not films!)
The atmosphere was wonderful. The little shrieks that suddenly bubbled up from the audience as we realised the Phantom was sneaking about on top of the chandelier trembling above us, and later on in the show where the Phantom is taking Christine by boat to his lair – the stage was covered in low lying mist, and candles rose up out of it as the boat moved past, utterly convincing. Because the show is such a long running fixture, the effects show all the signs of a theatre made for the performance. I like that fact I have only ever seen it in its 'home' theatre. It adds a certain specialness to it.
The dramatic songs and energetic performances were equally as gripping. I loved the entire thing. Although, I have to say, nothing can quite beat that chandelier falling from the ceiling…
My sister had been given complimentary tickets to the restaurant at the top of the OXO tower so after leaving the theatre we went to eat there (a bit of a shock to my stomach at having a main meal after 11pm!) . I had a rack of lamb, if I remember rightly, which was delicious but so rich I was full after four mouthfuls!! I can still visualise the gleaming dome of St Paul's rising up in the skyscape that was all around us. Actually, looking it up now I realise how recently the restaurant had been opened when we went there.
We didn't stay overly long in the restaurant, and it worked out perfectly. As we drove back through Westminster Square, Big Ben struck twelve. (Big Ben is actually the name of the bell, not the clock face or tower, although often people refer to it as such.) As I looked up from the car window at the glowing dial and listened to the great, deep ring of midnight, I felt a huge ripple of contentment. It could not have ended better.
