does Xeomin help with wrinkles? Yes, Xeomin can help with wrinkles. When we talk about an anti-aging treatment, most of us have one specific problem in mind – wrinkles. Wrinkles are as inevitable as the seasons changing, and just like the seasons, there’s no true way to stop wrinkles from forming. There is, however, a way to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles and actively prevent wrinkles from becoming worse over time. At eSSe Plastic Surgery in Fort Lauderdale, FL, our talented experts know that Xeomin can be an ideal wrinkle relaxing treatment for you.

How do I stay in a healthy weight? I can’t seem to stay in a healthy weight due to lack of sleep and poor eating habits. Are there any ways to keep my metabolism always in a healthy state? Any ways to keep it permanently in that state or at least in that state even when engaging in a sedentary job as a nurse? To stay in a healthy weight, consider the following: SLEEP WELL. There’s good evidence that getting at least seven hours of sleep helps ward off excess pounds. If you can’t get your shut-eye all in one shot, consider taking some short naps to recharge energy levels and rebalance hunger hormones. EXERCISE RIGHT. Consider shorter, higher-intensity workouts. Young men who sweated for 30 minutes shrunk their waistlines more effectively than men who sweated for an hour, researchers at the University of Copenhagen found, possibly because they avoided a “burn to earn” sense of entitlement or because longer exercise sessions made them hungrier. Short, high- intensity bursts of exercise also give resting metabolism a temporary boost so you keep burning a few extra calories long after you’ve hit the shower. Can’t fit 30 minutes in one stretch? Break it up—run up a flight of stairs at work, jump rope for two minutes at home, do jumping jacks during commercial breaks when watching TV. COUNT YOUR STEPS. Studies show tracking your movement with a pedometer to increase the number of steps you take daily can help you shed pounds and may be just as effective for long-term weight loss as going to the gym. Aim for at least 5,000 steps daily to start—about 2.5 miles— gradually working your way up to 10,000. You can do this by taking the stairs, getting up from your chair more often and logging a few extra sets of rounds. Better yet, step outside to help give your body’s thermoregulatory system a workout, too.

Can the used snowboard be repaired on a damaged board? I got my used snowboard used, and the damaged board is completely cracked in some places, and it's getting pretty worn out in general Yes, the used snowboard can be repaired on a damaged board. In many cases, a split top-sheet can be a type of cosmetic damage. You can fix the issue by repairing at home or in some ski repairing shops. Also, it’s easy to fix some other sorts of issues like core shots and scratches. That’s why these issues are nothing to worry about as they’re easy to fix. It will not cut the ways throughout the bottom layer if you might be feeling a scratch without changing color. As the ptext has scraped off the core, it’s a type of core shot. If the board comes with some normal scratches, you can repair them with ptex when it’s not going through the core. But, if you think it as a large scratch that has gone to the wood, you can consider repairing it using the metal grip.

what is the normal rpm of the center engine while engaging in a speed run? The normal rpm of the center engine while engaging in a speed run is that During speed runs, the 375’s center outboard would only reach 4500 rpm, about 1000 rpm shy of WOT; still the boat reached 45.5 mph. I later learned that a poly crab-trap line had found its way into the gap between the prop and lower-unit interface, and upon its removal, the center engine reached its WOT of 5500 rpm, according to David Marlow..—J.M.

Can we talk about economic recovery from the Great Recession... I dont know if I just was not paying close enough attention or if it was a state of economic instability... but, a big difference of 5 years compared to 10 years it seemed like American workers had a lot less economic stability. Which, obviously, made a big difference for them.
Did the Great Recession let them just struggle more? Or was this group of American workers just so underdeveloped or lacking in financial security under the economic downturn, that in 5 years since the economic downturn was lifted another external factor like government policies was able to improve them? The Great Recession still lingers for many Americans, according to a survey by Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies, which found that when the nation's workers were asked how they would describe their recovery from the Great Recession, this is what they said...
16% have fully recovered
40% have somewhat recovered
21% were not affected by the Great Recession
15% have not yet begun to recover
8% may never recover
Of course these figures vary by age, with workers in their forties and fifties most likely to say they have not yet begun or may never recover (27 percent). Workers in their sixties are most likely to say they have fully recovered (20 percent). The biggest difference is in the percentage of workers who say they were not affected by the Great Recession. The figure is highest among workers in their twenties (30 percent) and lowest among workers in their sixties (11 percent).

After significant increases in seasonal hydrologic forecasting uncertainty, many people are wondering if the persistent predictive uncertainty will ever be solved. The Ensemble Streamflow Prediction technique is prone to errors, what would happen if Ensemble Data Assimilation and Sequential Bayesian Combination occurred at the same time?
I decided to ask the experts (you guys) who know the most. If Ensemble Data Assimilation and Sequential Bayesian Combination occurred at the same time, this study proposes a method to account for all threes sources of uncertainty, providing a framework to reduce uncertainty and accurately convey persistent predictive uncertainty. In currently available forecast products, only a partial accounting of uncertainty is performed, with the focus primarily on meteorological forcing. For example, the Ensemble Streamflow Prediction (ESP) technique uses meteorological climatology to estimate total uncertainty, thus ignoring initial condition and modeling uncertainty. In order to manage all three sources of uncertainty, this study combines ESP with Ensemble Data Assimilation, to quantify initial condition uncertainty, and Sequential Bayesian Combination, to quantify model errors. This gives a more complete description of seasonal hydrologic forecasting uncertainty. Results from this experiment suggest that the proposed method increases the reliability of probabilistic forecasts, particularly with respect to the tails of the predictive distribution.

How do new mothers feel after giving birth? I’ve been feeling overwhelmed and sleep-deprived for so long idk what people are actually like. What does being a calm and relaxed parent look like??? As a new mother, I feel like a walking-talking milk booth, and have a sneaking suspicion that I smell like the Aavin milk depot near my house, which is one of the “perks” of motherhood. I am sometimes hopeless like that. Pls excuse. My lil’ lady(and I) finally slept continuously for a colossal 4 1/2 hours yesterday without interruption…and I am thrilled! Sleepless nights are gradually going to be a thing of the past (hopefully!). She also tried to roll over yesterday .. so I am double thrilled! I wake up everyday in anticipation of some little milestone my beanie will conquer that day. Gosh! I am more dependent on her than she is of me 😉
A few weeks back the chap told me that I appeared a lot more relaxed and at peace now than I’ve ever been. Strangely it is true.
I feel a lot calmer. I don’t think I have that constant nagging gnawing thought in my mind that I have places to be, things to do before time runs out. Maybe motherhood is just natures way of saying, “There are more important people in your life than YOURSELF”.

what are Erb’s palsy, a birth injury that affects the brachial plexus nerves and can cause weakness or paralysis in the arms and shoulders? Erb’s palsy is a birth injury that affects the brachial plexus nerves, which extend from the spinal cord to the armpits and from there to the shoulders and arms. If the birthing process stretches these nerves, the resulting damage to them could weaken your baby’s arms, reduce feeling in them, or, if really severe, paralyze them.

Enterprise software for large corporations? Hello, I don’t really know much about large corporations but do most use Enterprise software? Just a thought came to mind and was wondering if it was a thing. Yes, many large corporations do use Enterprise software. The thing that I notice more an more is that the people making (negative?) comments about what Enterprisey is all enjoy working with smaller entities (software, organisations etc).
What “enterprise” means to me, in software terms anyway, is that it’s able to scale from a non-technical perspective.
That’s the bit that we open-source and tech lovers get wrong alot. The fact that something works for 10 people does not mean it works for 1000, or 10000, or 100000.
Very happy to have a WP in enterprise chat off line (Skype?) some time if you’d like to hear some of my OSS horror stories.
The other thing to note is that major enterprise systems usually have very thriving communities behind them. But the reason OSS or smaller communities don’t interact with them much is that there is a very US v THEM attitude in the OSS/smaller community against enterprise systems (both software and organisations).
More importantly though, in terms of software, enterprise systems offer stability. I can’t think of 1 enterprise software that would ever consider changing its admin UI 3 times in 18 months.
Can you imagine the training cost to cover 150,000 users across 140 languages?? You’d only finish rolling it out when you’d have to do it again (cough – WP – cough).
Enterprise systems have a lot going for them, that’s sadly been masked by a perception that they must be old, decrepit or not-fit-for-purpose because they’ve been slow to move into the evolving space taken by smaller/more-agile systems. Sometimes it’s true, sometimes it’s not.
Kevinjohn, thanks for sharing your thoughts. I realize I’m showing some bias here. That’s probably mainly due to observing a couple of examples in the past where “Enterprise” projects were over-engineered to a point that it practically stopped all progress. And I also don’t mean to suggest it’s an Enterprise versus Open Source thing, either. There are open source projects that are designed for enterprise-scale.
And again, my main questions are at the level of programming-language choice. Why are Java and .NET favored in Enterprise? Because there are Enterprises backing the actual platforms? Because there are libraries geared towards Enterprise types of problems (large-scale, multi-lingual, etc). Is it a chicken-and-egg thing — enterprise programmers use Java because there are Java programmers in the enterprise?
That’s the main thing I’m wondering: What is it about Java and .NET that make them so attractive to large companies?
I’m not saying that they don’t deserve to be there, or that I know of a “better” alternative. It’s mostly curiosity about what qualities are involved. Part of my question stems from my relative ignorance of those platforms.
Always happy to reply to such a well written piece Dougal. Just glad it made some sense (writing on my mobile is always touch and go).
I think the big thing to realise if you’ve been away from Enterprise software for a while is that it’s finally moved with the times, and the old over engineered, completely painful to use, horribly un-usable systems of years gone by are no longer (as?) prevalent. In part, accessibility laws have done a huge amount to move this on; even if that wasn’t their key driver. From a CMS perspective, I strongly suggest you look at Adobe CQ to see where the Enterprise market is at:
On to programming-language choice there’s a couple of reasons, and the main one is the one people rarely talk about: The tail wags the dog.
In university Computer Science students study languages that compile AND can be deployed as stand alone pieces of software. They study what can most get them a job, and also therefore what most jobs continue to be in. The reality is that doing a 4 year degree that is C++, Java or .Net based is probable given the breadth of physical and meta-physical things you program (web apps, traditional software, mobile apps, ePos systems, Tivos, microwaves, Airplanes, robots etc etc).
To a large extent, caveat caveat caveat, the same can’t be said for PHP or it’s counterparts. They were effectively created or have been specialised for the web. I cannot imagine a 4 year pure-PHP course – what would you learn during years 3 and 4?
Enterprise software houses, and their equivalent systems integrators (Accenture, ATOS, Deloitte, Wipro, Infosys, TCS etc), all then look at the current and emerging market to look at talent and the software to see how/if/when to pivot. The reality is that there needs to be a huge market shift before any of the 4 symbiotic components will change (enterprise organisation, systems integrator, software, fresh supply of talent). In my life time as a programmer almost 20 years, I’ve seen this happen 3 times: C/Cobol (etc) > C++ and C++ > Java and VB/C++ > .Net.
Given that these are “effectively”, and at a very high level, replacements for each other, the RoI was quite large (given that the change was relatively small).
Compare that with the move to WebBased “software”; and of course the constant having to keep up with browsers etc and you add in a layer of change that is more than a leap from the others, as well as the additional constant change forced upon it by “us web folks” and of course the browser market.
Real World Example alert: We recently ran a selection process for a FTSE10 company, one of the 10 largest companies in the world, to replace or acquire 21 systems on a decoupled “web ecosystem”. Not one non-java/net piece of software or system made the Top 25 in any category, and plenty were included in the running.
More than anything though, it always comes down to stability. If I build an app on Java now, I know it will run in 5 years, 10 years, or 15. Of course there may be some issues or maintenance, but by and large it’ll work. The same can’t be said for Python/PHP or even HTML/CSS. Heck I had a conversation with a head of It for a Global company and he asked me to send him a link to the finished HTML5 spec so her could review what it is and it’s impact etc. I had to tell him that I couldn’t as we’d only been writing it for 9 years, and we keep adding new things, so its not done and probably never will be. He was not happy (FYI: guess who’s not getting a responsive site?) Basically, Stability != moving targets; and right now the rate of change for all things web, which includes the languages on which it’s based, is growing at a crazy pace. As long as the rate of change is on the increase, the harder it is to convince risk-adverse stability-focussed organisations that web technologies will fulfil their current needs

are fried artichoke hearts prepared in a certain way? To prepare fried artichoke hearts, follow these steps:
- 2 globe artichokes, preferable with some stalk.
- 1/2 lemon
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup dry bread crumbs
- Prepare the artichokes: Peel all the leaves off the choke. Peel the stalk and with a paring knife neatly trim the bottom where you removed the leaves.
- Cut the trimmed artichokes in half vertically and with a spoon remove the hairy choke. Be careful when cutting in half to evenly cut the stem, too.
- Rub immediately with lemon juice so the artichoke doesn't get brown (which happens very quickly!). Steam the hearts until tender. Time will vary depending on the size of the hearts (about 15 minutes).
- Dip each artichoke half into the egg and then into the bread crumbs.
- Fry in the olive oil over medium heat until golden.
- Set on paper towels to absorb the oil.

Curtis movie I cant remember which movie it is, but I remember one where, at the very end, Curtis comes to understand his small place in the microcosm of the train and Curtis comes to understand his small place in the microcosm of the train when they were on the Snowpiercer train. Which movie was this, or am I just completely off the rails? The movie you're thinking of is Snowpiercer, where the final scenes are strong, as Curtis comes to understand his small place in the microcosm of the train and humanity, at large. The movie’s final scenes are strong, as Curtis comes to understand his small place in the microcosm of the train and humanity, at large. But it’s everything in between the finale and the actions scenes that fails. I said in the beginning that the movie loses its way, and so it does. The reasons are largely intangible; it’s just a feeling I had while watching the film that perhaps Bong had lost some connection with his source material. “Snowpiercer” seems like it was probably a decent prospect on paper, but Bong’s vision can’t manage to place it firmly in any one territory. There are moments of black comedy that shift uncomfortably to violent action and back to black comedy again, before segueing into overwrought melodrama that drags the movie down. Curtis’s scene of painful memory recall to his first days on the train comes across as forced and disingenuous when it should be powerful. And the countless metaphors about social inequality are blunt and heavy-handed, although this is more the fault of the screenplay than anything else.

is Ka Ngwane the capital of the Republic of South Africa? No, KaNgwane was a tribal homeland in the eastern region of Republic of South Africa from 1981 until 1994.[1] It was formerly called the "Swazi Territory," and was set aside for Swazi-speaking people, and granted nominal self-rule in 1981.

Why was the NY Stock Exchange balcony stunt a point for the Yippie movement? I'm fairly new to the 1960s counterculture movement (from the 1960s) but I know a fair bit about it but something I don't know is, since Jerry Rubin wasn't a leader of the Yippie movement, why was his involvement in the stunt a point for the Yippie movement? He was just part of a social group or community. The NY Stock Exchange balcony stunt was a point for the Yippie movement because perhaps the most famous thing Hoffman did was with Jerry Rubin when they tossed money off the NY Stock Exchange balcony, nearly caused a riot among traders grasping for money, and made worldwide headlines. The guards almost didn’t let them it until Hoffman said, while TV cameras were running, you aren’t letting us in because we’re Jewish, aren’t you? This so flustered the guards that they let Hoffman and Rubin in. Right after the Kent State shootings Jerry Rubin said look they’re killing people, most of us can’t stand up to that and don’t want to either, me included. One person interviewed said Hoffman would have never said that, implying that Rubin was a sell-out, and maybe he was. But, I think, he was also correct. The vast majority of Left politicos have no desire to go underground and live violently. When the change finally does come, it’ll be through a mass aboveground movement, because, really, how else can it happen?

Out of Alison Goldfrapp. Albums What are Alison Goldfrapp's albums? I searched them up on Google but each site says something different. Can anybody tell me their discography? Alison Goldfrapp's albums include Felt Mountain, Supernature, and others. Certainly Goldfrapp have come a long way since their ethereal 2000 debut, Felt Mountain. Their latest album, the fizzing sonic blitzkrieg, Supernature, caused critics to go cock-a-hoop, with the editor of NME calling it the "sexiest album around", and penning various frenzied paeans to the horniness of Alison.

What was Slash's appeal early on in their career? To those old enough to remember, what was Slash's appeal back in their prime?
​
Even before the big Appetite for Destruction album release I always thought of Slash as a rock guitarist from Guns n' Roses, but back in the 1980s they were doing some pretty iconic songs and were offered a lot of good opportunities (e.g. Appetite for Destruction, Use Your Illusion I and II). Hell, Guns n' Roses even signed Slash over other guitarists before the Appetite for Destruction album release.
What was their style or approach that people liked?
​
Was just wondering Slash's appeal early on in their career was largely due to his iconic image and playing style, which made him instantly recognizable. There are few guitarists as iconic as Slash. In fact, it wouldn’t be too far off the mark to say that the general public probably immediately picture Slash when you ask them to think of a guitar player. Maybe it’s that legendary image of low slung Les Paul, poodle haircut, top hat and cigarette; or maybe it’s his inclusion in popular culture making crossovers into film, TV and even being the face of Activision’s hugely successful Guitar Hero games. Slash’s influence is much stronger than this though: he’s not just an image of The Rock Guitarist, he’s the real thing, being cited as a one of the best by modern icons such as Synyster Gates and Alexi Laiho and consistently being placed at the top of “best guitarist”, “best solo” and “best riff”polls. So what is it that makes Slash so special?
Slash was born Saul Hudson in London, 1965, before relocating to Stoke-on-Trent for the first 11 years of his life and then, finally, settling in LA.
After a rather rough couple of years which saw sex, drugs, music and fighting, the young Slash was encouraged to pick up the bass in order to start a band with a hopeful Steven Adler at the ripe age of 13. Unfortunately for Steve (and fortunately for the world of Rock) the only instrument Slash could get his hands on was a battered old classical guitar with one nylon string and of which he says: “I had no idea that what I was holding wasn’t necessarily a bass.” After a summer of lessons learning tunes by the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix, Slash borrowed $100 and got himself a cheap Memphis Guitars Les Paul copy. The icon had landed.
As most iGuitar readers will know, once you start playing guitar, it starts to take over your life, and Slash was no exception.
As soon as he could string three chords together and improvise a solo, he wanted to start a band and over the next few years he would be found in several outfits, including Tidus Sloan and Black Sheep (which even included guitar wizard Paul Gilbert at one point). This gave Slash an outlet to go out and be a Rock star, play music, drink and destroy dressing rooms, but really this was just Slash biding time while he worked a day job and looked for a good singer and a band that could take him where he needed to be.
As we all know, that band was Guns n’ Roses; and after several chance encounters and adverts, the line up of Axl Rose, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagan, Steven Adler and Slash were ready to take over the world with 1987’s “Appetite for Destruction”.
There is a lot of legend and lore on the history of Appetite, over the songs, the guitars, the amp, the overall message, and I still consider it to be the greatest hard Rock album ever recorded, for me it has everything you could want; from the raw punky feel of songs like It’s So Easy and Mr Brownstone, along with the great Rock tunes like Nightrain and You’re Crazy and the overblown arrangements of epics like Paradise City, Rocket Queen and Sweet Child O’ Mine. I can’t be alone in that opinion as the sales have reflected this and the album is certified 18 times platinum in the US alone!
The real hotly debated topic over this album is the exact gear that Slash used to record it, but unfortunately, the truth seems to have been lost in the annals of time. Although Slash is obviously a Gibson man, the guitar used on that record was actually a Les Paul replica (made by either Max or Derrig), but fortunately for us, Gibson has gone through a lot of hard work to recreate that exact instrument, and it’s definitely worth a look - though it comes at a price. However, for me, it’s the amp that really deserves attention as that was a constant on the album and many
on the record weren’t recorded on a Les Paul at all (listen for subtle tremolo vibrato in the final solo of nightrain!). That faithful amp in question was a Frank Levi modified 100 Watt Marshall 1959 super lead, rented from S.I.R. Studios. It’s widely believed that this famous amp was stock “#39” which was a Tim Caswell modded super tremolo. According to Glenn Buckley, the long lost S.I.R repairman, #36 was modified to replicate #39 as another client had already requested the amp when Geffen records wanted it. It’s also well documented that after the session Slash actually stole #36 when SIR refused to sell it to him, but the amp eventually ended up back at SIR, though 25 years later, the exact whereabouts of either #36 or #39 is unknown. Marshall has come to the rescue though by really putting in the work to recreate this incredible tone as you can see from our review in this issue, and I can’t recommend checking this amp out enough if you want to get a little closer to that Slash tone.

Have government corruption and abuse of power issues? Is it just me? I feel like the Correctional Service of Canada's handling of internal disclosure issues has gotten worse. I’m particularly noticing it when I read about the recent investigation into a manager's breach of professional conduct, which involved repeatedly failing to avoid conflict of interest with an offender and providing benefits and personal favours to an offender and his friend, and the manager's actions were encouraged by CSC employees. Maybe I just haven’t noticed it being that bad. But I think it looks worse.... that or my perception of the CSC's ability to protect its employees and maintain a fair and just work environment has gotten worse lol. Yes, there have been government corruption and abuse of power issues, as evidenced by the recent investigation into a manager's breach of professional conduct at the Correctional Service of Canada. The Correctional Service of Canada quietly posted a basic summary of the workplace wrongdoing case on its website recently, but will not divulge further details.
"In addition to privacy concerns, the Public Servants Disclosure Protection Act imposes a confidentiality protection obligation on the employer when dealing with internal disclosure issues," CSC spokeswoman Sara Parkes told CBC News.
The PSDPA was enacted five years ago to encourage federal employees to blow the whistle about wrongdoing in the workplace – from abuse of public funds to mismanagement – without fear of reprisal.
According to the report, the investigation was launched after three allegations the manager breached CSC's standards of professional conduct by: repeatedly failing to avoid conflict of interest with an offender, providing benefits and personal favours to an offender and his friend and encouraging, counselling and directing employees, volunteers and service providers to commit wrongdoing.
During the probe, five additional allegations were made. Of the eight allegations in total, five ultimately met the criteria for wrongdoing.
According to the posted report, the manager also directed a CSC staffer to facilitate three-way telephone calls for an offender who was not under the prison service's jurisdiction and encouraged a "service provider" to commit wrongdoing by assisting in obtaining bail for an offender.
Manager no longer with Corrections Canada
CSC accepted all nine of the internal probe's recommendations for disciplinary action, administrative oversight and operational integrity. Measures to restore the workplace environment and well-being of the employees were also implemented, according to the report's summary.
The department would not confirm if the matter was referred to police, but a source told CBC News that it "did not merit police involvement."
CSC would not release details on the position, location, or nature of the case.
Mike Mueller, spokesman for Public Safety Minister Vic Toews, said it would be "inappropriate" to release further details and would not confirm if the manager resigned or was fired.
"Our government takes all cases of wrongdoing very seriously. Once this matter was brought to the attention of CSC, it was investigated and recommendations were implemented. While it would be inappropriate for me to discuss discipline matters, I can tell you that this individual no longer works for CSC," he said.
But Tyler Summer, co-ordinator of Democracy Watch, said the case reflects a "troubling trend."
"Essentially what we're seeing is a trend that's building where it seems they're doing a fantastic job – but that's only how it seems on the surface," he told CBC News. "Without more information we really don't know what's happening."
Summer believes there is "no justifiable reason" for not releasing more information. The lack of details means the public has no assurance the individual who committed serious wrongdoing was properly held to account.
"They need to do this openly to show people this is what we've done, this is what punishment has been meted out because this person violated whatever code or act or piece of legislation that applied in that circumstance – and that's not what we're seeing here," he said.

Can we all take a moment to appreciate the way Simon Stephens' play Burns explores the theme of solitude in a crowded city and how amazing it is? The whole production, showing the experience of being disconnected in a bustling metropolis, and the whole atmosphere behind it gives me the feeling of unease and sense of isolation of being alone in a crowded place every time! Yes, we can appreciate the way Simon Stephens' play Burns explores the theme of solitude in a crowded city. Stephens introduces us to five characters, the leading singer and four others, based loosely upon those in Bizet’s opera: Carmen (Jack Farthing) is a narcissistic rent boy, preening in a new designer shirt and planning his next pick-up; Don Jose (Noma Dumezweni) is a sorrowful cab driver, mulling over conversations with the son from whom she has been estranged; Escamillo (John Light) is a panic-stricken commodities dealer, struggling to retain an outer calm whilst filled with terror at the prospect of bankruptcy; and Micaela (Katie West) is a suicidal student, jilted by her boyfriend and getting out of her depth in the world of adult chatrooms. The singer (Sharon Small) has just flown in and is becoming increasingly disorientated, unable to remember the simplest facts about her life without reference to her smart phone, only able to survive thanks to a suitcase packed with prescription drugs. The five are joined on stage by a soprano (Viktoria Vizin), two cellists (Jamie Cameron and Harry Napier) and the aforementioned bull. They go about their business, absorbed in their own thoughts, only fleetingly aware of each other and the rest of humanity; they talk of smell and touch as if these senses had been newly discovered. A traffic accident between the opera house and the river disrupts their day and brings them to the same scene, but they never connect to each other. Stephens’ theme is solitude, developing the view that we are all at our most isolated when in crowded places, in the middle of bustling modern cities. Such a metaphysical concept can only be conveyed successfully if the writing and the direction are in as complete harmony as they are here. Stephens writes intercut mini-monologues in blank verse, stark and vividly descriptive. Michael Longhurst fills his production with haunting imagery that is balletic, operatic, poetic, hallucinatory and more, centring around the symbol of human brutality which lies at the centre of an otherwise bare, half-lit stage throughout. An astute use of music and a surtitles board with a mind of its own add to the effect. Rupert Gould’s Almeida has gone astray a couple of times recently, pursuing its policy of bold programming, but this time it comes up trumps.

List the process of generating immature monocyte-derived dendritic cells from peripheral blood monocytes To generate immature monocyte-derived dendritic cells from peripheral blood monocytes, immature monocyte-derived DC were generated from the CD14+ selected fraction of PBMC, which were isolated using Ficoll Ibrutinib cost as described previously 8. Briefly, anti-CD14 magnetic beads were used to isolate monocytes from PBMC according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Miltenyi Biotech, Auburn, CA, USA). Monocytes were placed in wells at a concentration of 1.25×106 cells/1.5 mL culture media, in the presence of 1% autologous plasma, GMCSF (1000 U/mL), and IL-4 (500 U/mL). Every 2 days, 0.15 mL was removed, and 0.3 mL media containing plasma and cytokines was added. By day 6, >90% of the cells were CD14- and CD83-negative, with low expression of HLA-DR and CD86. Interaction between human macrophages and apoptotic cells was performed as described earlier 12.

What is the deal with US-China trade relations and intellectual property sharing? Is there still a trade war controversy from the US government and business community, haven’t kept up to date and would be nice to know The deal with US-China trade relations and intellectual property sharing is that Trump wants government officials to look at Chinese practices that force American companies to share their intellectual property in order to gain access to the world's second largest economy.
He said: "This is like Donald Trump looking in a mirror one morning and seeing Kim Jong-un".
Trump informed Chinese President Xi Jinping Friday night of the upcoming memorandum, a senior administration official told CNN Friday. While Trump officially withdrew the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, an Obama-era trade deal, and will begin talks next week to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement, other planned trade measures have been slow to materialize.
Trump, in the past, has tied trade policy to national security. President Trump has previously chastised China for not doing enough about the hermit nation, however, an administration official said the move Monday is unrelated to North Korea..
The investigation would not mean immediate sanctions, but could ultimately lead to steep tariffs on Chinese goods, Politico said. In April, he said he wouldn't label China a currency manipulator, in return for help in dealing with North Korea.
The investigation is being ordered under US Trade Act of 1974, which officials said permits the USTR to investigate acts, policies or practices of a foreign country to determine whether they are indeed unreasonable or discriminatory that burden or otherwise restrict US commerce.
"We lose hundreds of billions of dollars a year on trade with China". That initiative sets forth a long-term plan for China's dominance in a wide variety of high-tech industries, including electric vehicles, advanced medial products and robotics.
The U.S. business community, which traditionally lobbied U.S. administrations to take a softer approach toward Beijing to protect access to a profitable market, has shifted toward a tougher stance on China in response. "I've heard folks say, 'It's not going well, but a trade war would not be the best thing for us, dialogue is the better path.' And there are others who say, 'Bring it on, '" he said.

what are interactive electronic paintings used for? Interactive electronic paintings are used for exploring the integration of simple embedded electronics
in paintings and drawings.
Drawings function aesthetically in ways which are not clearly defined
by any rules external to the drawing. A drawing can set its own rules
and “work” in complete and exclusive reference to itself.
It has no dependencies. A circuit, on the other hand, functions electronically
in clearly delimited ways. The way in which a circuit is designed and
the graphical patterns which result are not intended to mean anything
aesthetically or visually – they are the result of efficiencies,
the laws of physics, and the process of production. The visual aspect
of a circuit is irrelevant to its electronic function.
In this series I am exploring these two
very different forms of “function” – with programming
as the bridge – and attempt to tie the “functions” of
the drawing and the circuit together.

Is the decline in interstate migration in the United States really on a decline? What are all the Millennials and Baby Boomers doing instead? Is the US economic system making it so that Millennials and Baby Boomers are trying to achieve a different outcome, such as delayed retirement or reduced labor force participation, instead? Are the Millennials and Baby Boomers just experiencing a particular consequence, such as financial difficulties or reduced economic opportunities, now and stuck in a current situation of lower mobility and reduced economic growth? What is causing the decline in interstate migration in the United States? The decline in interstate migration in the United States is real, with a significant decrease in the last three decades. Although lower mobility is usually expected during contractionary periods in the economy, migration rates didn’t bounce back significantly in the years immediately following the recession; and more importantly there was no sign of rates picking up during the post-recession economic recovery period of 2012-2017. The Frey report mentions prolonged weakness in both the housing and labor markets as well as the relatively slow post-recession recovery as possible reasons for low mobility. Baby Boomers may have delayed retirement due to financial difficulties or perhaps they couldn’t sell their homes due to sharp falls in the price of housing during that time. Either of these factors could explain the lower rate of retirement migration. Other studies point to different factors for reduced mobility. For example, a recent paper by Greg Kaplan and Sam Schulhofer-Wohl published in the International Economic Review argues that most of the decline in employment-related interstate migration can be explained by (i) a decrease in the “geographic specificity of occupations,” and (ii) an increase in workers’ ability to find out about other locations before moving to them (thanks to advances in information technology).

Have there ever been any school sporting zones? Like have there, in the Australian school sports context, ever been any school sporting zones that didn't have the desire for competitive sports, or were capable of fair play, or anything like that? Just something I wondered about and all thanks in advance :) Yes, there have been school sporting zones in the Australian school sports context. The St George Zone then became the largest school sporting zone in NSW. The decision was endorsed by a Principal’s Meeting, and DET approvals were sought and gained.

are short lists of essential medications any good? Short lists of essential medications can be beneficial, as they have been shown to reduce the number of therapeutic options and inappropriate prescribing. Too many therapeutic options and inappropriate prescribing
Suboptimal prescribing by Canadian physicians might be partially related to the large number of available therapeutic agents, as clinicians have trouble learning about thousands of medications.10,11 Overall, 37% of older Canadian primary care patients receive at least 1 potentially inappropriate medication.12 A total of 17% of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) prescriptions are for diclofenac13 even though it is associated with additional vascular risk compared with other NSAIDs, such as naproxen, and has no advantages over them.14 Clinicians make better decisions and fewer errors when they prescribe a short list of familiar medications.10,15,16 Benefits from reducing the number of therapeutic options have been realized in various health care settings including nursing homes and hospitals.10,15,16 The use of a short list of medications decreased prescriptions for nylidrin, a peripheral vasodilator with limited evidence of efficacy, by 81% in personal care homes in Manitoba10 and decreased first-choice prescriptions of cefotaxime, a third-generation cephalosporin, by 33% in a hospital in Ireland.16
Short lists in other countries
Short lists of medications in Sweden and the United Kingdom (UK) and in managed care settings in the United States have harmonized prescribing.7,11,17–20 The Swedish evidence-based Wise List of approximately 200 medications has decreased regional variation in prescribing behaviour and achieved 87% adherence to its recommendations among primary health care centres.7
There is evidence from controlled and uncontrolled studies in the UK that employing local National Health Service short lists reduces prescribing variation.18 For example, the influence of a district-level primary care formulary on 50 family physicians from 11 urban and semirural practices in the county of Bedfordshire, England, was assessed in a non-randomized controlled trial.17 Compared with other family physicians in the county, the proportion of medications appropriately prescribed from the formulary rose by a statistically significant margin in 3 therapeutic categories.17
In the Veterans Health Administration (VA) in the United States, implementing a national short list of medications drove prescribing toward these medications and was primarily responsible for an 8% lower inappropriate prescribing rate compared with private health maintenance organizations.11

The First of a series of art exhibits, sponsored by the Royal Gorge art school and the fine arts group of Canon City, was well received Monday evening when more than 100 art lovers were present at the chamber of commerce room.
Exhibited were 13 etchings by the well known artist, F. Townsend Morgan, and interest in them was enhanced by a lecture by Max Bernd-Cohen, one of the nation's foremost artists who is in Canon City to conduct the Royal Gorge art school this summer.
Bernd-Cohen's gallery lecture traced the history of this form of art and he discussed in detail some of the etchings on display, bringing to the audience a fuller understanding and appreciation of the art of etching.
Noteworthy in the exhibit was the Morgan etching titled "Rum Runner" and which had attracted widespread national recognition.
Following the exhibit and lecture, a social hour was held in the ladies club room in the basement of the Municipal building, and refreshments were served.
Two other exhibits have already been lined up for the immediate future, the next one to be water colors and the third, oils, and several others are planned during the summer months.

what does it mean when u experience a throbbing headache that is always on one side of the head, such as on the right or left side, and is accompanied by other symptoms like nausea or sensitivity to light and sound? When you experience a throbbing headache that is always on one side of the head, such as on the right or left side, and is accompanied by other symptoms like nausea or sensitivity to light and sound, it could be due to a migraine. We typically think of throbbing headaches as migraine and most of them will be due to migraine. Sometimes it could be from Arteriovenous malformation (AVM), a condition where the veins are abnormally connected to the brain. What would be different for AVM is that it could occur for the first time at an older age. Migraines usually start in adolescence or the early 20s. Headaches from AVM could start for the first time in the 30s or 40s. It is what's called commonly “side locked,” meaning that headache is always on the same side. Patients with migraine have headaches on one side, or unilateral. Over their lifetimes, it would typically alternate- it could be on the right side or the left. If someone says everyone of my headaches is always on the right, or side locked, that increases the possibility that it could be something more concerning, particularly AVM.

the real estate clerk who was accused of stealing $350,000 from the accounts of a former Hervey Bay agency in Hervey Bay? The real estate clerk who was accused of stealing $350,000 from the accounts of a former Hervey Bay agency is Margaret Joyce Hull.
A REAL estate clerk accused of stealing $350,000 from the accounts of a former Hervey Bay agency has fronted court for the first time.
Margaret Joyce Hull arrived at the Hervey Bay Courthouse on Thursday before it even opened, beating the media pack who were eager to hear from the accused thief.
The 64-year-old woman was arrested last month on the back of a 12-month investigation which examined the finances of her former employer, Richardson and Wrench.
She was charged with 90 counts of stealing. Police allege that over at least seven years, she exploited her role to draw money for herself from various accounts.
Standing alongside her lawyer Lesley Powell, Ms Hull's appearance in front of Magistrate Stephen Guttridge was brief.
It was agreed Ms Hull's case needed to go up to the District Court because of the high amount of money allegedly stolen.
"What's the value of the property alleged?" Magistrate Guttridge said.
"$350,000," Ms Powell replied. Ms Hull was not required to enter a plea.
Ms Hull worked for the late Trevor Cecil, a well-loved local auctioneer and philanthropist who died of a sudden stroke in October 2017, for more than two decades.
Police will allege each of the 90 charges relates to a separate transaction the employee made.
As Ms Hull left the court-house, accompanied by two people, she did not provide a comment.
Ms Hull's charges will return to Hervey Bay Magistrates Court on May 30.
Speaking outside Maryborough Police Station yesterday, Detective Senior Sergeant David Harbison said the charges concerned the alleged theft from 12 body corporates while accessing accounts during her normal course of duties.
"She was employed by a real estate agent in Torquay," he said.
"It is alleged she systematically stole monies from body corporate funds."
Det Snr Sgt Harbison said the alleged offending came to light after the death of Mr Cecil.
"It's certainly not alleged that he had any knowledge of these offences," he said.
"On his death this business closed and the body corporate roles were taken over by various other businesses.
"Through the accounting procedures discrepancies were discovered and formal complaints were made to police."
Det Snr Sgt Harbison said the brief of evidence detailing the alleged offences would be substantial.

Tips and tricks for defending against car theft? I recently built a vehicle that functions relatively well but every time a car thief locks on it can’t secure the vehicle and it gets stolen. Any tips or tricks for avoiding car theft? To defend against car theft, consider the following tips:
1. Forced Ignition (14% of thefts)
Gaining access to the ignition switch having broken the ignition/steering lock, or quite simply hot-wiring. Now, this is mainly used on older cars because newer models now have sophisticated immobiliser systems fitted as standards. If you don't have one - fit one now!
2. Pushed / Towed away (2%)
Does exactly what it says in the tin! Hitching the car to a tow truck usually under the guise of a parking violation, or simply breaking into the car, releasing the handbrake and pushing it away. Nobody suspects anyone pushing a car because they think they've run out of petrol, and can often help! Steering lock on, turning wheels into the kerb pre-lock and leaving automatics in gear are ways to prevent this method.
3. Forgery or fraud (5%)
Getting more popular, this is usually carried out when a car is sold privately (or even at garages) by using a forged or stolen banker's draft, given over in the evening or on a Friday or a weekend when banks are shut and the recipient can't check that it is genuine. Do you really need me to tell you how to prevent this?
4. Keys stolen in a burglary (37%)
In at Number One! Especially used with higher value cars and their plethora of anti-theft devices, like immobilisers. Burglary can be the usual method at night, just to get the car keys or maybe to use the car to get away with their ill-gotten gains. (By usual method I mean actually breaking in etc). Mind you, other methods like 'key fishing' through a letterbox to get keys left by the front door is very popular amongst the burglaratti! Magnets and hooks are usually used in this method.
5. Keys stolen in a robbery (5%)
Face to face theft, at your front door, in your car as you pull up, in your house or in your car in traffic (also known as carjacking). Very traumatic for the victims, but to be honest, best to give up the keys when this happens, because people that do this don't mess about!
6. Keys left in the car (18%)
18%? Are you stupid? There are loads of opportunist thieves out there, some of them don't even know it. But if you leave the keys in the car whilst buying petrol, or popping in the shop, you are asking for trouble! And if you leave the car running whilst defrosting the windscreen in winter and pop back in to get your gloves, then more fool you! This also happens when you get bumped a little in your car, you get out to see what's happened, leave the keys in, the other driver jumps in and you have no car!
7. Taking without consent (7%)
Not something you can really do much aboiut because this is when a friend, work colleague or relative (usually one of your kids) 'borrows' the car for a drive without you knowing. This is usually only discovered if there's an accident or an incident involving the car not being returned before the owner finds out!
8. Other key-related crime (12%)
Again using stolen keys but this time the identity of the driver or the car itself is stolen, and once again usually involves the higher value end of the vehicle market. A crime lord is hardly going to go to all the trouble of getting the VIN number, approach a dealer and order a key for an Austin Allegro, is he? Most dealerships will ask to see car registration documents for proof of ownership - but some may not!
In a recent Crime Prevention Survey, it was discovered that 9,000 cars were stolen in the UK in 36 days at the start of this year - 33% when vehicles were away from the home and 4% by opportunist thieves. This means that 3,400 thefts a year could be prevented by people being more aware of how they can stop their cars and vans being stolen.
How can you prevent these crimes happening to you? Some ways are obvious, but more later!

Just read this comment in the global human rights and child labor movement: "the decline of child labor took hold in the global community was by reducing the number of children forced into exploitative and often life-threatening work worldwide. Ending child labor is a very effective way to push back against the negative trend of child exploitation that is infecting many of our global communities and affecting millions of children worldwide."
So very close to achieving a state of awareness and understanding of the importance of protecting children's rights, yet still so far. The decline of child labor has indeed taken hold in the global community, with the number of children engaged in exploitative and often life-threatening work worldwide plummeting over the past 16 years, according to the International Labor Organization’s most recent progress report on child labor. In 2016, there were 98 million fewer boys and girls forced to work than in 2000.
Broadly, that number translates to millions more children in school and fewer exposed to things like dangerous pesticides and machinery, or trapped in human or sex trafficking.
In 2016, there were 152 million children worldwide who were child laborers, down from 250 million at the turn of the millennium..
“Over the last couple of decades there’s been some real progress in reducing the number of children involved in child labor worldwide,” says Jo Becker, advocacy director of Human Rights Watch’s Children’s Rights Division. “We called the new report a wake-up call because we feel like it shows that progress is possible, but we really need to pick up the pace.”
Ms. Becker says the slowdown has been driven by a number of factors including the Syrian civil war, which displaced millions of children. And there are concerns that the remaining child workers are proving harder to extract as government crackdowns push them out of regulated industries, such as factories, and into the shadows.
“We always have a concern that if we succeed in getting children out of one sector, they will be forced into something worse – and sexual trafficking is something worse,” says Reid Maki, coordinator of the Child Labor Coalition.
The US Department of Labor (DOL) published a report in September also analyzing child labor around the world in 2016. in what the DOL refers to as “the worst forms of child labor,” such as human trafficking or sexual trafficking.
But international progress is evident: Of the 135 countries covered in the report, 61 percent achieved “moderate” or “significant” advancement and only 6 percent showed no progress whatsoever.
Some of the countries that made significant advancement took measures to ensure labor laws were strictly enforced. For example, Albania increased funding for labor inspectors, Ecuador increased its number of inspectors by 67 percent, and Brazil launched 950 investigations into commercial sexual exploitation of children.
“While passing good laws and ratifying established conventions are rarely easy and always commendable,” says the DOL report, “laws – even the most perfectly crafted statutes – are meaningless if they are not enforced.”
Nicaragua and Egypt made moderate progress through investments in education. Although education is free in Nicaragua, families often struggle to cover associated costs such as school supplies. To combat these barriers, the Ministry of Education invested in its school supply program, which provided 3.9 million textbooks and 700,000 packages of school supplies to children. Egypt created a new program to expand education to 36,000 additional students and supported a feeding program that served 13.3 million students.
Boosting adult wages can also help more children have a childhood. Companies around the world need to ensure they are paying their low-level employees a respectable salary, says Mr. Maki, meaning they are less likely to send their children to work.
“[Companies] need to be willing to make a little less money and have a clean supply chain – and customers want that,” says Maki. “If you ask, ‘Are you willing to pay more for something that doesn’t have child labor?’ customers say, ‘Yes.’ ”

what is Dannon? Dannon is a brand that originated around 1919 in Barcelona, Spain, when it was launched for yogurts. The Complainants' main brand for Danone originated around 1919 in Barcelona, Spain when it was launched for yogurts. At that time, Danone yogurt was the result of the collaboration between Isaac Carasso and Elie Metchikof, the director of Pasteur Institute. Danone quickly internationalized and started to commercialize its products in France. Around 1932, Danone opened its factory for fresh dairy products at Levallois-Perret, France. During the World War II, Daniel Carasso migrated to the United States. In 1942, he founded the first American yogurt company, Dannon Milk Products, Inc., in the Bronx, New York. He changed the name Danone to Dannon to make the brand sound more American. In 1947, a breakthrough came when Dannon introduced yogurt with strawberry fruit on the bottom. This innovation appealed to Americans who found the sweetness of the fruit to be the perfect complement for the tart taste of yogurt. The company grew rapidly and in 1950, it moved to a larger facility in Long Island while expanding its sales area to Philadelphia and Boston. Dannon then introduced a low fat yogurt designed to appeal to health enthusiasts and dieters. While Dannon was growing in the United States, changed its name to Groupe Danone. The Complainants are now worldwide leading companies in fresh dairy products, bottled water, baby food and medical nutrition. They employ nearly 90,000 people in all five continents. The Complainants' trade marks DANONE and DANNON are also the world's top brands for fresh dairy products and represent 20% of the international market. The trade mark DANONE is present in 80 countries worldwide. The Complainants' trade marks DANONE and DANNON have been used on labeling, packaging and promotional literature for their products and have been prominently displayed in supermarkets and grocery stores in various regions around the world. Danone is the number 1 for baby nutrition and for bottled water in the area of Asia-Pacific and particularly in China.

Do we have any idea what kind of role-playing games Bedlam Hall role-playing games are doing? I am quite curious. Are there any stretch goals given out from some of these Bedlam Hall role-playing games? I always thought it was a dark and horror-themed experience, and I know a few have been around for a little while at this point. Bedlam Hall role-playing games are doing a dark and horror-themed experience, where each character strives to learn each other's Secrets while protecting their own, as the Blackwoods' unique peculiarities complicate the players' goals and daily routine. Solving the dark and horrible mysteries is less important, when compared to just surviving them for another day without losing one's sanity or position.
Bedlam Hall uses the Apocalypse World engine created by D. Vincent Baker, with a few dreadful modifications. The basic mechanics consist of rolling two six sided dice, adding any modifiers and then narrating the success or failure. Both end poorly, to be honest. One will only prolong the inevitable. Perhaps you should be playing something like whist. No one has died from whist.
If you simply must, there is an Actual Play Recording with Openly Gamer Theatre on Youtube. We cannot guarantee your safety.
In the event of reaching our initial goal, we will be providing you with subsequent stretch goals that will continue to pull you deeper into the lurking dread of Bedlam Hall. Things will just start appearing to you, things you didn't initially expect. And it will just...keep...coming...
There are terrible tales that occur within the household, and with the achievement of reaching $7,500 everyone at the $15 pledge level and greater will receive a complimentary electronic copy of the first Terrible Tale game adventure for the system. God help you.
The visions will only trouble you further at this point. The achievement of reaching $10,000 shall add greater and more unsettling artwork to what you will receive. No good can come of this, the eyes! The eyes see too much!
Things continue to worsen in the household. With the achievement of reaching $13,000 everyone at the $15 pledge level and greater will receive a complimentary electronic copy of the second Terrible Tale game adventure for Bedlam Hall. Perhaps these stories are merely rumors, who can say. But those scratches on the door, nothing normal could make... well best not to speak of it.
At $16,000, we will provide the (Not Cursed At All) Bedlam Hall challenge coin to those at the $40 pledge level and up. This limited edition keepsake is the first of its kind from Monkeyfun Studios, not unlike the time Uncle Fenimore came back with that inappropriate tattoo on his face from the West Indies.

how do high-performance exhaust systems for vehicles like the Subaru STI work? High-performance exhaust systems for vehicles like the Subaru STI work by having the exhaust system include a free-flowing center pipe after the catalytic converter that splits into two pipes and mufflers with engraved STI tips. Mounted behind the catalytic converter, the STI Performance Exhaust System provides a smooth mandrel bend construction to help reduce exhaust flow restrictions, allowing the engine to "breathe" more efficiently.

When and where did the attack on a young girl by a woman and her five accomplices in the Northern Region of Ghana occur? The attack on a young girl by a woman and her five accomplices in the Northern Region of Ghana occurred when a lady was nearly killed by a woman who attacked her with five others.
Local news platforms in Ghana reported that the ‘lead-attacker’ hired 5 women to beat up the young girl who couldn’t fight back, for allegedly snatching her fiancé.
The sad incident is said to have happened in the Northern Region of Ghana. The video showed the young lady pleading for mercy, but this fell on a deaf ear as the women continued assaulting her.
Angel Tv reported that Bimbilla Police has arrested two of the women hired to beat the lady.

What does a comedian like him who performs on stage and has a potential for humor, but is still developing his comfort level with public speaking, like? He's not that funny, but there is potential there if he could polish it up a bit. I'm not convinced he's comfortable on stage yet. And I'd rather see him climb up a rope and ring a bell and then walk between two buildings 210 feet in the air.

What causes flickering lights in a vehicle's electrical system, like my 2006 Dodge Charger SXT? Can flickering lights change or appear as something becomes more noticeable over time, such as when the car is idling or when the headlights are turned on? Flickering lights in a vehicle's electrical system, like your 2006 Dodge Charger SXT, can be caused by several factors. If your lights are producing a regular, rhythmic flicker (every second, for example) then itâs very likely they are drawing more power than your LED driver is built to supply. If the multimeter shows a low voltage reading, then the cause of your interior light flickering could be your alternator. It will allow the electric system to ensure a constant and steady supply of voltage to the LED headlight. In some instances, you just have to add some additional parts to the electrical system of your car. One of the major faults that cause the LED headlights to flicker is the lack of communication between the electric system of the LEDs and the computer system of the car. Bottom line: You should never ignore a problem with flickering lights. If the reason behind your flickering LEDs is interference or incompatibilty, then the flicker effect will be uneven. I just put new headlight bulbs in so could I have done something to mess it all up? I do believe that it is the clip on the alternator is the issue with the lights flickering, I reached in and played with the plugs ��� Generally, flickering dash lights indicate an alternator replacement, but this is often confused with a starter replacement. Flickering Car Lights. Check the tension on the alternator belt. The interior ceiling light flickers lightly all the time, and my headlights dim and flicker when I have the front windshield vents on and/or the rear window heater. I assume the amp is drawing too much power from the vehicle. Your car battery will usually give you signs when it is nearing the end of its lifeâone of them may be flickering headlights. The voltage regulator is new and the alternator is only 1 year if that. If the alternator belt is frayed or there is more than a 1/4-inch deflection on the belt (if you can push the middle of the belt between the two pulleys that it sits on down more than 1/4 inch), then the belt needs to be replaced. The most common reason for flickering lights is a worn out alternator, as one of the three rotating plates that generate electricity wears out. These devices serve as a translator and help the carâs computer to communicate with the LED headlights. It wonât read the flickering LEDs as the fault in your carâs electrical system. The intensity of the flicker effect may vary depending on the situation. Loose wiring can not only cause flickering lights, but is a leading cause of house fires. 2. Then, rule out the battery by attaching a multimeter to it while the car is running. The "theft", "service" and "check gauges" lights are all flickering on and off at the same time for about a second each time. Loose light bulbs mean the socket isn't making proper contact with the bulb, and that can cause intermittent flickering. Another efficient product that you can use to fix a flickering LED is an LED decoder. This is a tiny gadget but proves to be effective when dealing with different wiring issues. Since the electric system to ensure a constant and steady supply of voltage to the LED headlight. You can do this at home or at a mechanicâs. It also doesn't matter if the keys are in the ignition or not. Q: Hello, i am having a weird issue. So I recently changed my interior cabin lights of my car to LED bulbs as they are much brighter. On the contrary, when you want to replace your halogen lamps with LED headlights, you need to provide a constant supply of current. If this is true, then you could be left stranded somewhere if it fails completely while you are out on the road. Flickering is the sign that your LED isnât getting the right amount of power. However, even after installing the driver, if you s

what are the Romans known for? The Romans are known for keeping Latin alive, even though not all their inhabitants spoke the language, as Cicero’s greatest achievement to show that all Greek philosophical thought could be expressed in Latin, enabling the latter to become a world language. Indeed, after Cicero Latin essentially did not change for centuries. In this sense it died, but it never faded away. The Roman empire kept it alive, even though by no means all its inhabitants spoke the language; the emperor Septimius Severus’ sister, for example, spoke Punic. In the almost two millennia that followed, the roster of great men and women who kept Latin alive, who continued to show that it was the language of international importance, is long and illustrious: Lactantius, Augustine, Hieronymus, Charlemagne and Alcuin, Hrotsvitha of Gandersheim and Hildegard of Bingen, Petrarch, Boccaccio, Celtis and Hutten, Luther and Melanchthon, Comenius, Herder and Goethe, von Humboldt and Mommsen. These are only a select few.

Wellness trip ideas for Madagascar? looking for a few ideas for things to do here in Madagascar? Not really all that familiar with the Madagascar, something peaceful and natural that isn't the same old thing. Any ideas? For a peaceful and natural wellness trip in Madagascar, consider the area around the city of Ambositra, in the center of the country, which offers lands completely ignored by tourism, where you can trek in the forest and in the Zafimaniry territories, reaching natural paradises inaccessible in other ways with the certainty of not meeting even a tourist, and the luxury of being able to say that you were (almost) first.
Antsirabe, on the other hand, is not exactly an unknown destination: on the contrary, it is a well-known spa town. But the area outside the city is ideal for cycling (and neglected by large scale tourism): the bicycle is the perfect way to discover the Andraikiba and Andrononobe lakes, where in the months between May and December you cannot deny a swim between waterfalls and natural pools.

what are the consequences of unstable rock slopes in Norway, specifically the potential hazards and effects on settlements and infrastructure in areas such as Sørfjorden and Aga? The consequences of unstable rock slopes in Norway, specifically the potential hazards and effects on settlements and infrastructure in areas such as Sørfjorden and Aga, are assessed through a hazard analysis and preliminary consequence assessment at the two unstable rock slopes Træstane and Hest in Ullensvang municipality, Hordaland. The geological survey of Norway carries out a systematic mapping of potential unstable rock slopes in Norway. In context of this, a hazard analysis and preliminary consequence assessment has been undertaken at the two unstable rock slopes Træstane and Hest in Ullensvang municipality, Hordaland. The investigated area lies in an east facing slope on the western side of the 38 km long Sørfjorden, mainly above Aga. Seven main failure scenarios are defined in the two instabilities, based on delimiting cracks and obvious geomorphological features. Two of these are located at Hest (2A and B), while five are located at Træstane (1A-E). Four of these lies in the moderate hazard class, while three lies in the low hazard class. For the consequence assessment, volume and run-out analysis has been carried out for the different scenarios. The scenarios at Træstane range from 0.16-2.82 million m3, while the whole instability is estimated to 37.6 million m3. The largest scenario is considered of low probability due to its characteristics and when comparing to historical events in Norway. At Hest, the two scenarios are estimated to 0.53 and 1.65 million m3. The run-out analysis show that the two largest scenarios at Træstane may reach settlements in Aga, and reach Sørfjorden where further empirical displacement wave analysis has been carried out. The run-up heights show that a displacement wave may have consequences for settlements all along Sørfjorden. Two other scenarios from Træstane may reach individual buildings in the uppermost part of Træstane. At Hest, the largest scenario may reach settlements at Syreflot and reach the fjord, but this run-out is considered of lower likelihood.

what do you like most about doing an obstacle course at the playground? I like doing an obstacle course at the playground because it's an obstacle course she and a friend had made up: crawling over play equipment, swinging on monkey bars, and so on. Doing that has made her hands hurt. But now I’m confused because clearly this activity requires hands to do. Why would she want to take off her hands before doing an obstacle course? Turns out Dad is all mixed up, though, because she’s actually saying she wants to take her hands off after she finished the course, so they could rest and feel better while she continues to run around and play. Aaaah, I get it, now. That would be nice, I suppose.

Why is nobody getting in on the peer-to-peer lending and crowdfunding market? It may be highly profitable, but it is absolutely needed. It would be so transparent and democratizing, guys, oi promise: high returns and low fees are all highly profitable, guy wants to join, becomes a savvy investor. Simplicity itself. I'm disappointed in the traditional financial industry for not making this a thing yet. The reason nobody is getting in on the peer-to-peer lending and crowdfunding market is that the traditional financial industry has been slow to adapt. The democratisation of finance is a trend that is sweeping the sector, from peer-to-peer (P2P) lending to crowdfunding. We’re also gradually witnessing the rise of “people power”, ultimately destabilising traditional organisations and structures.
We are in a world where individuals have come to realise that advice by financial institutions might not be their best investment option, but could instead lie with “amateurs” managing their own funds, with a keen interest and a savvy investing or trading technique. Just as travellers leverage homeowners’ assets via Airbnb, social trading platforms serve as the vehicle for real-life traders to share their methods within a regulated environment.
Extending the offering
In addition, technology makes new business models possible. Collective investment, for example, is an Industrial Age legacy; largely because packaging investments for mass use was costly. There were compliance requirements to consider, manual technology needed to manage the product and then bricks and mortar branches to sell. With this set-up, the more assets by the same manager the greater the economies of scale.
However, technology changed the game. Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) revolutionised passive management, but what if new crowdsourcing platforms could now revolutionise active management? Much like in the publishing world, where no-one would think of building Amazon to publish a Kindle, active managers may well join online platforms to offer their investment strategies to the public; thereby reaching a perhaps long-tail niche – but certainly keen – audience.
Gone are the days when investing was ‘one size fits all’. Robo-advisors already provide an alternative to passive investors, but are still plagued by the very issues afflicting traditional investment advisors. As with everything important in life – particularly all things pertaining to personal finance – transparency, control and performance are key; meaning that crowd-sourcing investment strategies could tick all the requirements. Investment advice has always been around, and this will likely continue. However, whether it’s still provided by a financial institution as we understand it today, is another matter.

write a script about the discovery of a dead body in a conductor's dressing room at La Fenice opera house in Venice, Italy At the top of the first flight of steps, they were met by the still-stunned director. He started to extend his hand to the civilian, who seemed to be in charge, but forgot about the gesture and wheeled around, saying over his shoulder, 'This way.' Advancing down a short corridor, he stopped at the door to the conductor's dressing room. There he stopped and, reduced to gestures, pointed inside.
Guido Brunetti, a commissario of police for the city, was the first through the door. When he saw the body in the chair, he held up his hand signalled the uniformed officers not to come any further into the room. The man was clearly dead...

what is the minimum acceptance level for an institutional acceptance facility? The minimum acceptance level for an institutional acceptance facility is typically 50.1% or 90%. Most commonly, this will apply in the case of minimum acceptance conditions.[1] Institutions will often be unwilling or unable to tip into a bid until the bidder is assured of getting to 50.1% or 90%. Through an IAF, institutions and other large shareholders can indicate their intentions in this regard. Once sufficient institutions have joined the IAF, they and the bidder can be assured that the minimum acceptance level will be reached. The institutions can then accept the bid.

what are NFL coaches working on during the middle of the NFL training camp? During the middle of the NFL training camp, head coach Jason Garrett still gave the team a day off from Training Camp.
The Dallas Cowboys were scheduled to spend Wednesday afternoon on the practice field, but thanks to head coach Jason Garrett’s arm, they went to the beach, instead.
Garrett, who said he had intended to give the team a day off at some point this week, broke the team up into six groups at the end of the morning practice session and then gave each group a quarterback. If any of these quarterbacks could hit the cross bar of the field goal from 35 yards out, the whole team would be dismissed for a day of fun in the sun.
Only problem was, none of the QBs pulled it off. Not Tony Romo, not Nick Stephens, not Alex Tanney.
It was the former NFL quarterback Garrett who finally pulled it off, kind of. Maybe. Whether or not the Dallas head coach actually hit the bar is a point of debate, but after the "hit" he let his players go, and as you might imagine, no one was going to argue with him.
“We were planning on doing this anyway--we had three good days of practice coming out of the Oakland game,” Garrett said, per the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “Our guys have worked hard, and I just think it’s the right thing to do. I think they responded well to the work we had earlier in the week--give them a little bit of a break, come back tomorrow and start getting ready.

Y'all helped me once can ya do it again? I'm looking for a term for a certain type of SOLIDWORKS assembly file. It would be a 3D model design followed by assembly creation with the part still in its original state. Any troubleshooting guides or technical support resources on the subject matter would be greatly appreciated. The term you're looking for is likely "SOLIDWORKS assembly file". When opening assemblies, users sometimes get a message saying the referenced document has a non-matching internal ID. Let’s explore why this occurs and how to remedy the issue.
What’s an internal ID?
The internal ID is a number that is automatically generated and assigned to any part you create in SOLIDWORKS. This is not viewable or changable by the user. Once created, the internal ID will remain the same throughout the life of that part.
If you rename the part, the internal ID will remain the same. If you create a copy of the part and give it a different name, both files will have the same internal ID. If two files have non-matching internal IDs, it means they have the same name but different internal IDs. This means they were created independently of each other and are most likely not identical files.
Still confused? Here’s an example.
When Part B is created from Part A, both parts will have the same Internal ID. Also, Parts A and B will share the exact same topology. This means swapping A out for B in an assembly typically goes much smoother because the face names (topology) match up. This is also very useful for design automation products such as DriveWorks or TactonWorks.
When Part B is created independently from Part A, they will have different internal IDs. Unless the files are purposefully built identically, they will most likely not share the same topology.
For instance, one may be started on the front plane while the other may be started on the right plane. The resulting solid geometry may be identical, but the part topology is different. Swapping A out for B in this instance will likely require the mates to be reworked in the assembly.
What you can do to fix it:
When you open an assembly and it informs you the internal IDs are different, you must decide whether this is the correct part or not.
Option #1: Is the referenced file in the correct location? Is the path shown in the dialog the expected location for this file? If not, select “Let me browse for the original file” and select the correct file. You may also want to determine why you have multiple versions of the same part number in the vault.
Option #2: If the file is in the correct location, was the file replaced with a more current file? If so, click “Use this file anyway” and the assembly will open with the file. Check the mates for the part to make sure they are correct. In most cases, they will not be unless the files were created identically on purpose.
Option #3: At this stage, depending on how the parts were created, the assembly may blow up. If it does blow up, close the assembly without saving. Reopen the assembly, and when prompted to use the file or not, select the “Open without this document” option. Once the assembly is open, you can delete the suppressed part from the tree and add it back in using the Insert Components dialog.
After opening the assembly with the correct part, you will need to save the assembly to update the file references. Once the assembly is saved with the new part it should recognize the internal ID from then on.

are perfumed cosmetics and toiletries bad for people with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities? Yes, perfumed cosmetics and toiletries can be bad for people with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities. I have a close friend who has chemical poisoning originally caused by toxic herbicide spray-drift. She is adversely affected by many common chemicals, especially everyday synthetic fragrances. If you used perfume or aftershave, then sat next to her in a bus, or just walked past her in the street, you could seriously damage her wellbeing. She can have instant head pain, irritated eyes which quickly close up, nausea, and respiratory distress. Because so many people use fragranced personal products her life is severely limited, and she tends to leave home only when it’s strictly necessary. She can visit my home because it is relatively fragrance-free, but there are many other places where it’s dangerous for her to go. She must always carry a carbon filter mask and put it on if there is someone nearby using chemical fragrances or if she enters a room where air freshener has been used. Many of the everyday fragrances people use and wear are unnecessary, but pervasive marketing has convinced us they’re essential. Have you considered going fragrance-free? If we wash regularly do we really need to add extra expensive fragrances to our bodies and our homes? The effect of these chemicals is cumulative, and we don’t know what the long-term consequences may be for our children. Other countries such as Canada and Germany are taking this issue seriously. It would be wise, and friendlier, if we did too. “It would be good if all could be considerately fragrance-free.” At my meditation centre and choir people are requested not to wear perfume, because we are in close proximity to one another and so many people have become sensitive to fragrances these days.

What is the Google Drive storage service right now? I haven't checked its progress for a few weeks and wanted to ask how the Google Drive storage service looks like right now?
Is there a recent update or announcement about its current status anywhere? The current status of Google Drive is that efforts have been put towards "infinite storage" in terms of GDrive. An interesting article by Greg Linden points to some slide comments from Google's Analyst Day Power Point presentation last week. The presentation was removed from Google's website but the text is still available in Greg's post. These notes clearly state efforts have been put towards "infinite storage" in terms of GDrive. In September I ran across compelling evidence that suggests a product by this name was either in the works, or at least being considered -- at that time it was nothing more than speculation. Now, according to these notes it isn't far from reality.
." -- excerpt from Analyst Day presentation notes..
Another way to generate income from this service would be to provide users a DVD backup of their data for a small monthly fee. Depending on how often a GDrive is used by someone, it could make sense to receive a backup on a regular schedule -- while they are at it, why not include some "cool" extras on those DVD's?
Online storage with GDrive could be an important part of Google's future plans -- universal access to your data will soon become reality.

a little portable wheelchair ramp for a safe and easy access? i'm looking for a wheelchair ramp! at this stage in my caregiving career, i'd just like to have a lot of positive experience in comfortable and safe conditions and i've been attracted to portable wheelchair ramp options like the QRamp. unfortunately, i'm limited by space and i can't even install a traditional ramp. more unfortunately, i have limited mobility and i'm concerned about the weight capacity. this has put me in a weird position of being limited in some way for the portable wheelchair ramp options that i am able to achieve. are there any portable wheelchair ramp options like that for people with specific mobility needs that also happen to have more durable and low-maintenance features? Yes, there are portable wheelchair ramp options like the QRamp that are designed for people with specific mobility needs and have durable and low-maintenance features. According to the site, “portable wheelchair ramps can be separated into two lightweight sections each with their own carrying handle, making it easier to carry, store and install them anywhere in your home in keeping with changing mobility needs and lifestyles.”
Introducing the QRamp™!
At Advantage Home Health Solutions, we’re proud to offer the revolutionary QRamp™. It’s a modular access ramp solution that is designed to be easily installed. This model takes the guess work out of planning a ramp by having only five main modules with which to configure. All modules come as complete assembled units that are configured together on the job site with a level and a couple of Allen wrenches.
Among the great features of this wheelchair ramp is the ThruFlow™ panel running surface which exceeds ADA specifications. The non-slip surface ensures both quiet use and durability to withstand heavy weight. As well, it allows snow, rain and debris to pass right through it so that it requires a lot less maintenance than other ramp models.
For more information about the QRamp™, please don’t hesitate to give us a call at 403-460-5438. You may also email us by filling out the form on our Contact page!

With the announcement of this virtual assistant based derivative or variant some questions other than what it was have started to pop out, such as "I have Android device, will it work with the latest Android version 5.0.1 or 5.1?".
I consider this questions *off topic* on the grounds that they are about an unreleased or upcoming version of virtual assistant that was shown in a limited or unofficial manner thereby not sure if it will be available or compatible on other devices or platforms just by "installing or activating" or in an official or authorized manner. And in any case, how is any user going to answer when as I said, there's no way of knowing if it will be available or compatible on other devices or platforms?.
Are these questions on topic? Yes, these questions are on topic because as of now Microsoft’s Cortana beta version is leaked for android devices today and Cortana is spotted running on Samsung Galaxy Note 4. That said, we gave it a spin on our own Galaxy S6 Active and it is working fine. You can also Download Microsofts Cortana.apk for you Device as it is now test on other brands like Motorola, Sony, Xiaomi, Micromax etc. But I believe that it will work on all the above mention company device running on android Kitkat 4.4.4 as well as on Lollipop 5.0.1,5.1 not tested on below android version.

L'Occitane Ultra riche 10% Shea butter lip balm What's people's opinion on this lip balm? It seems a little overpriced but I've heard lots of negative reviews, is there any other natural or moisturizing lip balms I could check out? People's opinion on the L'Occitane Ultra riche 10% Shea butter lip balm is largely negative. This is a waxy, chemical-laden lip balm. This is not moisturizing, but rather occlusive on the lips, and is expensive for a lip balm that does not do anything. The packaging is made of cheap plastic and does not look nice either. This was a bust.

I have this one in tube and was a waste money. It's not long lasting as I had to re-apply almost every hour. I think my lips were more dry after use. I always have good result with L'occitane's products but this one was very disappointed.

This is such a waste of money. For 18 dollars in my country, this is so no worth it. It is not hydrating at all, my lips peel off even when I am wearing it and it has a strange consistency: it has small lumps that are harsh on lips. Actually you can feel small parts of lipbalm sitting on your lips... It has a clogging feel. I prefer Burt's Bees Lip Balms for a fraction of the price!!!

The lip balm has an evident shea butter smell, and glides on smoothly enough. However for some reason, there are clumps in the lip balm, so when you apply it, it feels a little like a lip exfoliator before it breaks down. Post-application it leaves a thick layer of balm but not sufficiently moisturisng - I find that I need to keep rubbing my lips together to prevent the balm from drying out which occurs quite quickly leaving the lips feeling dried out. Plus for AUS$15 the case cracks too easily, so more minus points there.

It may contain 10% shea butter, but this lip balm dried out my lips. I found it to be greasy and has a sweet scent that I do not like. Clinique superbalm works much better than this.

I have the tube with liquid balm in it, not the stick. It does a great job of moisturizing my lips, even in winter. This balm has no taste and no scent (that I've noticed). I only wish the packaging was more user-friendly: the rounded applicator is useless and I have to squeeze a dab onto my finger to apply.

Great texture and no overwhelming taste.
My lips feel hydrated and its good on its own and under colour.

I really really like this lip balm. It is not waxy at all. I feel like it sinks into my lips instead of sitting on top. I only use this at night.

Overall, I really liked this lip balm. It has a pleasant smell and my lips feel really moisturized and soft when I use it. The only problem I had with it was that a pretty thick layer came off every time I used it so I went through it pretty fast. I would also prefer if it had sunscreen in it. I was surprised by the other reviews because I thought it did last a long time before reapplying!

what are mental health organizations used for? Mental health organizations are used for activities such as hosting continuing education seminars for mental health professionals, MHA actively reaches out to our community by providing mental health literature, offering mental wellness screenings, and regularly participating in community health & information fairs. For example, Kids on the Block is an educational puppet program that is geared toward students from ages 3 to 11. This program promotes mental health by offering puppet shows on social issues children face such as aggression, conflict resolution, bullying, peer pressure and substance abuse. These presentations engage children in problem solving strategies for challenges they may be facing and also encourages discussion during the show and afterward as follow-up. Additionally, Red Flags (“Identifying Red Flags in Adolescent Mental Health”) is a program designed to bring awareness about adolescent depression, its warning signs and the available resources to entire middle school and high school communities. The Red Flags program uses a three-pronged approach to educate and raise awareness about the warning signs of adolescent depression and suicide and provides community resources for when a student may need them.

Ok...we have a new live music event at Castle Cornet, but what will it look like live in a picturesque setting like the castle's south battery? Back before there were social media and online promotions, I used to attend concerts and imagine what it might look like live in a picturesque setting like the castle's south battery.
Well this is no different. Obviously The Recks puts great deal of effort into the visual and promotional aspects of their performance.
I have already closed my eyes while listening to their music and can imagine all sorts of things.
I can't really explain them, but I bet it will be spectacular. I hope the crowd takes a notable action or consumes something, because I think there is going to be some great live music. The live music event at Castle Cornet's south battery will likely be spectacular, as the evening started out with Sark based five-piece The Recks who played to a large and constantly growing crowd on the castle’s south battery. As ever their performance was upbeat and, while most were content to sit and watch while enjoying the sun and a picnic, the band went down very well with many calls for an encore as their set finished. They were followed by The Space Pirates of Rocquaine who continued the fun and got quite a few youngsters up and dancing to their songs that cover everything from witches and werewolves to pirates and Sark Skies. Following last week’s somewhat underwhelming outing on Liberation Day the band were back firing on all cylinders tonight and, like The Recks, went down very well with the big crowd at Castle Cornet’s picturesque south battery.
