On April 27, 2016 the latest example of Russia’s fifth-generation fighter, the Sukhoi Company T-50-6-2, performed its maiden flight. This test aircraft, described by the design bureau as the first of the ‘second stage’ prototypes, marked an important milestone for the programme.
However, in recent months the programme has suffered a number of setbacks, such that the prospects of its long-term success must now be in some doubt. Work to create today’s T-50 began in earnest in the late 1990s under the PAK FA (Future Air Complex of Tactical Aviation) programme. In April 2002, the government selected Sukhoi’s T-50 design for the PAK FA requirement in favour of a rival proposal from Russian Aircraft Corporation MiG. In July 2003 the Russian Ministry of Defence (MoD) awarded Sukhoi a contract for research and development work, including detailed design, construction and testing of a series of T-50 prototypes. The preliminary design of the T-50 received Russian Air Force approval in December 2004. Manufacture of the T-50 is being undertaken by the Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Plant, which is wholly owned by the Sukhoi Company. A first prototype (T-50-1) recorded the type’s maiden flight on January 29, 2010.
Initial test fleet
While prototype T-50-1 has been used to evaluate flight-handling characteristics, the subsequent T-50-2 (first flown in March 2011) features a strengthened airframe and has been used for test work at high g-loads and angles of attack. T-50-1 and T-50-2 both lack mission systems, but T-50-2 has been used to test essential aircraft systems, including the weapons bay doors and inflight-refuelling probe.
First flown in November 2011, T-50-3 is the first to feature the Tikhomirov NIIP N036 Byelka radar, albeit lacking the planned side antennas, which will be used to widen the radar’s search and tracking angles.T-50-3 also introduced certain sensors from the UOMZ/Yekaterinburg 101KS Atoll optronics suite. Minor airframe changes are also incorporated in T-50-3, including modified wingtips, compared to previous prototypes. Compared to T-50-3, the subsequent T-50-4 (first flown in December 2012) has a revised optronics suite and is likely fitted with the KNIRTI/Zhukov L402 Gimalai electronic warfare (EW) self-protection suite. Further changes to the 101KS Atoll optronics suite were incorporated in T-50-5 (first flown in October 2013). This aircraft lacks the 101KS-U ultraviolet missile approach warning system, but includes two, instead of one, 101KS-O optronics locator turrets, including a new 101KS-O/N sensor located below the forward fuselage.
T-50-6 had been planned as the last of the ‘first stage’ flying prototypes, but was abandoned after T-50-5 suffered an accident in June 2014. Soon after landing at the experimental airfield at Zhukovsky, outside Moscow, smoke was seen emerging from T-50-5’s right engine air intake, followed by a localised fire. The aircraft was returned to Komsomolsk in Russia’s far east, and repaired using parts from the unfinished T-50-6, after which the aircraft was re-designated T-50-5R. “Essentially the PAK FA programme hasn’t seen any real progress in the last five years,” contends Justin Bronk, a research fellow specialising in combat airpower and technology at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) in London. “If you look at its closest competitor, the Lockheed Martin F-22A Raptor, the combination of airframe and engine didn’t take too long to develop compared to nearly a decade of systems development and bug fixing for the former.”
Mr. Bronk believes that the T-50 airframe/engine combination has still not been frozen, as evidenced by repeated measures to strengthen the wings. “The fact that they still have to patch the wings, especially for a stealth aircraft, shows that the airframe has real problems.” In effect, argues Mr. Bronk, the T-50 represents a “very heavily modified (Sukhoi Su-27/30/35 Flanker fighter) airframe,” with all the compromises in terms of radar cross-section that this brings.
In 2012 the Russian MoD placed orders for the next batch of test aircraft, for the ‘second stage’ of the programme. Although a first such test aircraft was due to fly in autumn 2015, it eventually took to the air in late April 2016. The United Aircraft Corporation, of which the Sukhoi company is a subsidiary, announced that three ‘second stage’ flying prototypes were due to be completed. The first of these to fly is the aforementioned T-50-6-2 (see above). Meanwhile, T-50-6-1 appears to refer to a ‘second stage’ static test airframe that is alternatively designated as T-50-7. Announced plans, which are almost certainly over-optimistic, called for eight pre-series aircraft to follow the prototypes. Reportedly designated T-50S, these aircraft were to be completed between 2016 and 2018. Thereafter, series production would be launched in 2019.
The PAK FA has been designed to meet the requirements of the Russian Air Force (RuAF). A Russian MoD pilot first flew a T-50 at the flight test centre in April 2013. In February 2014, the T-50-2 was first deployed to Akhtubinsk in western Russia, while T-50-3 was delivered to the centre for the first stage of state acceptance trials in December 2014. “Compared to public announcements, the PAK FA programme has suffered delays,” notes Russian aerospace observer Piotr Butowski. In fact, this is to be expected, since the dates promised by Russian officials since the very beginning of the programme have never appeared realistic. After the first flight in 2010, it was stated that state acceptance tests would commence in 2013, and deliveries of production T-50s to military units would begin in 2015. “During tests, the T-50 prototypes suffered structural cracks even flying with the g-load limited to five. For this reason, T-50-1 was under overhaul for over a year between August 2011 and September 2012 after suffering structural damage during a display at Moscow’s International Aviation and Space Salon (MAKS) exhibition in 2011. Thereafter, various strengthening additions appeared on the airframes. The structure of the production aircraft will be considerably improved.” As well as the aforementioned mishap suffered by T-50-5, there have been several incidents in which aircraft have encountered engine problems. In August 2011, T-50-2 suffered an engine compressor stall, leading to an aborted take-off. During a test flight in April 2015 a T-50’s cockpit canopy cracked.
Under published plans, the Russian MoD had hoped to declare initial operational capability and launch full-scale series production of the T-50 by the end of December 2016. The Russian National Armament Programme, which outlines the procurement priorities for the Russian military, called for 60 T-50s to be acquired by 2020. These plans will not be realised, and the Russian MoD has begun to make contingency plans in light of delays to the PAK FA programme, and perhaps broader concerns over its capabilities. In March 2015 the Russian Deputy Minister of Defence Yuri Borisov announced that a reduced number of T-50s, perhaps as few as twelve, might be purchased by 2020.
The T-50’s chances are hampered by the availability of Sukhoi Su-30SM and Su-35 fighters, the latest iterations of Flanker family. These two lower-cost options, already in operational service with the RuAF, provide an alternative to the T-50, at least in the short to medium term.
The Indian Connection
In the same way that Indian MoD orders allowed Sukhoi to develop the multirole Su-30MKI fighter (now in service with the Indian Air Force, which was in turn ‘Russianised’ as the Su-30SM for the RuAF), so India’s willingness to buy the T-50 will have a significant influence on its future prospects. In January 2003, Moscow and New Delhi signed a letter of intent covering the joint development of what India describes as the Fifth-Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA). An inter-governmental agreement followed in October 2007. A contract covering the preliminary design of the FGFA was signed in December 2010.
Sukhoi and Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) are jointly developing the fighter on the basis of the T-50. A number of changes are planned for the Indian Air Force (IAF) version, including the addition of the Tikhomirov NIIP N079 radar, in place of the N036 Byelka radar on the RuAF T-50s, and export versions of countermeasures systems and weapon management system, for example.
Like their Russian counterparts, when it comes to the FGFA, Indian defence officials have provided a mix of unrealistic timescale targets (including launch of production in India in 2018-19) and threats of reduced acquisition totals. In early 2015 the Indian chief of air staff Air Chief Marshal Arup Raha confirmed that the quantity of fighters that India will acquire is still undetermined, and will depend on financial factors.
Angad Singh, a New Delhi-based defence analyst, suggests that the most important factor facing the FGFA is the fact it is a government-to-government programme, meaning its ultimate fate rests with a political decision, and not the IAF. “The IAF has repeatedly signalled a willingness to sacrifice the FGFA if it means they can shore up fighter numbers in the short term. The hugely expensive MMRCA (Medium Multirole Combat Aircraft) programme, and now the government-to-government Dassault Aviation Rafale-F3 fighter acquisition deal have priority at the (IAF) headquarters, and multiple pronouncements by multiple officers have indicated that they are willing to push back or scale down (or both) the FGFA in favour of a more immediate fourth-generation buy.”
Mr. Singh also believes that the IAF is not happy with the current or even promised capabilities of the FGFA. “They would never admit it in public, but the Su-30MKI fleet is a huge headache from a reliability perspective, with the engines a particular concern.”
As its power plant, the T-50 currently employs two Saturn/Rybinsk AL-41F1thrust-vectoring turbofan engines. Despite its new name, as Mr. Singh points out, the AL-41F1 engine is essentially an upgrade of the AL-31F as used in the Su-27/Su-30 fighters, albeit with improvements including a larger-diameter fan, new high- and low-pressure turbines, an upgraded combustion chamber and a new Full-Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) system, by which the engine is controlled in an entirely computerised manner. According to Mr. Butowski, AL-41F1 engines will power T-50 fighters “at least until 2020”. After this date, they are expected to be fitted with the Izdeliye-30 turbofan, a completely new design.
Mr. Singh continues, “as an operator of multiple Russian fighter types, the IAF is familiar with Russian technological limitations … There is a lack of confidence that the Izdeliye30 engines will be delivered on time and on spec.” Indian confidence in the T-50 is also eroded by Russian reluctance to share test data and take part in prototype evaluation. “IAF officers are incredibly unhappy that the Russians are not letting them get their hands on even the T-50 prototypes. An Indian delegation was present when T-50-5 caught fire, and reportedly the Russians wouldn’t tell them what had gone wrong and wouldn’t let them near the aircraft once the fire had been put out. That’s the sort of behaviour that upsets prospective customers.”
Compounding Indian unease is the RuAF decision to induct only a small batch of series-production T-50s before committing to a full-scale production. Aside from India, however, export prospects for the T-50 are somewhat limited. “The classic market for top-end Russian equipment is the People’s Republic of China (PRC),” Mr. Bronk notes. The PRC, however, has taken a different path to developing its own advanced fighters. “Having stolen so much data, the PRC is in a better position to develop indigenous fifth-generation fighters. In terms of countries to willing to buy fighters from Russia, these tend to need to bolster their air defences quickly, and above all cheaply.” While there have been claims that the T-50’s unit cost will be “comparable to the latest Flanker series, (the Su-35),” Mr. Bronk considers that this is clearly unrealistic. Furthermore, with the Su-35 available and in quantity production, this option represents a very good deal in itself. “For $65 million, very little comes close to the Su-35,” he adds.
While the PRC develops its own comparable fifth-generation fighters, India was hopeful that joining Russia to co-develop the FGFA would provide a head start for its own aerospace industry. “So far, there is little clarity on Indian industrial participation, beyond the fact that HAL is to be the lead integrator for the Indian production effort,” says Mr. Singh. “It’s early to be talking about industrial participation anyway, since everything seems to have gone sideways. The Russians have done most, if not all the development work. If India stumps up the $6 billion the Russians were asking for, they will essentially be paying for instructions on how to build a fighter whose development is all but complete. I think even the Russians have recognised this and revised their ask downwards to around $3.7 billion.”
The FGFA programme is also being run against a backdrop of severe budgetary constraint within the Indian MoD. Current priorities include regeneration of the Indian Navy’s submarine fleet, and mechanisation and modernisation of the Indian Army. “The IAF needs to address a critical fighter shortfall,” Mr. Singh adds. “By virtue of being of being further down the list in chronological terms, the FGFA simply isn’t getting a lot of attention from the IAF, the MoD and the administration at large.”
Even if the T-50 fails to make headway, Russia may yet benefit from its experience in developing a fifth-generation combat aircraft. Mr. Bronk envisages a situation in which Russia may export its expertise gained in the programme to other countries working to develop advanced fighters. Outside of India, these currently include the PRC, the Republic of Korea and Turkey.
Concluding his analysis of the prospects of the FGFA in India, Mr. Singh told Armada, “I personally don’t rate the FGFA’s chances of success highly. It’s expensive, and therefore will give the MoD pause, while the IAF simply does not want it in its current or proposed forms. But in the world of politics and diplomacy, anything can change. If it comes down to giving the Russians a gift after ignoring them in favour of the Americans and Europeans in so many military purchases over the past decade or so, $4 billion might prove to be very good value after all.”
Currently, it is clear that the FGFA programme is at a standstill, and much of the future success of the T-50 hangs on this factor. “Nothing is certain now that the programme schedule is not being adhered to,” says Mr. Singh. “The two countries were supposed to have signed the R and D contract immediately after the conclusion of the preliminary design contract. But when the technical issues and problems with work share emerged in the R and D stage, the contract stalled and has been stalled ever since.”
For Mr. Bronk, the T-50 is limited by the fact that its design represents a “halfway house,” in which compromises are made in terms of a low radar cross section (RCS) in order to maximise manoeuvrability. “With the T-50, Sukhoi is pursuing a weird hybrid in terms of technology doctrine. A lot of sacrifices have been made in terms of very low observable characteristics in order to enhance manoeuvrability. There has been little interest shown in terms of situational awareness (the aircraft’s sensor and communications package) or all-aspect stealth.” On the other hand, while analysts often highlight the T-50’s engine air intakes as a low RCS weak point, this might not be an issue once the planned ‘radar blockers’ are installed. These are air intakes which are designed in such a fashion as to shield the engines’ spinning fan blades from radar detection. However, if its low RCS characteristics are truly compromised, then why should the RuAF, or indeed potential export customers, choose the T-50 over the tried and tested, and cheaper, Su-30 and Su-35?

Holding Back the Years
|"Holding Back the Years"|
|Single by Simply Red|
|from the album Picture Book|
|B-side||"Drowning in My Own Tears" / "I Won't Feel Bad"|
|Genre||Pop rock, blue-eyed soul|
|Writer(s)||Mick Hucknall, Neil Moss|
|Simply Red singles chronology|
"Holding Back the Years" is the 7th track of Simply Red's debut studio album Picture Book (1985). It remains their most successful single, having reached #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and #2 on the UK Singles Chart. It is one of two Simply Red songs (the other being their cover of "If You Don't Know Me by Now") to reach #1 in the US. "Holding Back the Years" had initially been released in the UK the year before, reaching #51. The song was nominated in the category of Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group With Vocals at the 29th Annual Grammy Awards.
Frontman of the group, Mick Hucknall, wrote the song when he was 17, while living at his father's house. The chorus did not come to him until many years later. His mother left the family when he was three; the upheaval caused by this event inspired him to write the song. The music was co-written with Neil Moss, a member of Hucknall's first group, the Frantic Elevators.
He recorded a chorus-less version of the song with the Frantic Elevators in 1982, but the real success came when the Simply Red version was released in 1985. In 2005, a brand-new stripped down acoustic version of the song was released on the album Simplified.
American musical group The Isley Brothers recorded the version for their 1996 album Mission to Please. Jazz vocalist Jimmy Scott recorded the version for his 1998 album of the same name. R&B singer Angie Stone's cover version was featured on the motion picture soundtrack of the 2000 film Love & Basketball. Jazz singer Gretchen Parlato recorded the version for her 2011 album The Lost and Found.

The video for the song was directed by Tony van den Ende and filmed in the English coastal town of Whitby. The famous scene where Hucknall watches the coastal view from his window can be seen on the cover of the single, in its music video and, for a brief time, in the music video of "If You Don't Know Me by Now". British actress Maggie O'Neill appears briefly in the video, as a teacher in a school. Keyboardist Fritz McIntyre plays the role of a one-man-band and the other band members play the role of the local cricket team who see Hucknall off on his journey.

London broadband company Community Fibre says it has connected 200,000 London homes, increasing its customer base by 130% in a year.
In November Community Fibre launched the capital’s first 3 Gigabit home broadband service and aims to connect 1 million London properties by the end of 2023.
It recently signed master wayleave agreements with three additional London boroughs, including Hackney Council, Barnet Council and Lambeth Council, enabling it to roll out its full-fibre broadband network to an extra 85,000 new properties in the coming months.
Graeme Oxby, CEO of Community Fibre commented: “2020 was without a doubt an unprecedented and difficult year for many. Despite this, our teams have worked hard to provide high-quality, 100% full-fibre broadband to London communities. As a London-based company, we are proud to have reached this new milestone today and will keep pursuing our efforts to provide better connectivity to those who need it the most and connect up to a million properties across the city by 2023. These rollouts will not only cover social housing and large blocks of flats, our primary focus in the past, but also include individual properties and terraced houses.”
Cllr Dan Thomas, leader of Barnet Council, added: “By enabling commercial investment in several new fibre broadband networks, we’re ensuring everyone will be able to benefit from highspeed internet connections as fast as possible. Life in the time of Covid-19 has increased our digital dependency for remote working, home schooling and staying in touch with our friends and loved ones. Having reliable and affordable broadband will ensure that Barnet will continue to be a great place to live, work and study.”
Community Fibre strives to support communities it serves in London and build a more inclusive digital future in the city. It provides free gigafast broadband connection to 123 community centres across London and became the first fixed broadband provider to offer 1-year free 50Mbps broadband in conjunction with our social landlord partners to vulnerable households in all the boroughs it serves to help with home-schooling through the lockdown.
Currently, Community Fibre is working with over 200 landlords in London to bring 100% full-fibre broadband to their properties at no extra cost to the community and is making inroads into connecting 1 million homes and businesses by 2023.

On its website, Tesla advertises about 20 Bangkok-based jobs, including a home charger developer.
US EV giant Tesla is stepping up its hiring process in Thailand as demand for electric vehicles soars in Thailand, an Asian car hub in Southeast Asia. The company is looking to hire a business development manager and a recruiter, according to its website. Job announcements come at a time when the country is facing high energy prices, fueling demand for EVs, along with support from government consumer incentives.
The company advertises nearly 20 Bangkok-based vacancies on its website, including Home Charging Developer, and a Charging Infrastructure Leader position was also posted on LinkedIn. Other vacancies were vehicle technicians, his customer service and parts his advisors.

However, Thailand will be Tesla’s production base for now, despite speculation that the Thai government is promoting EV sales and the EV company may set up an official showroom there. is not expected.
Thailand is Asia’s fourth-largest vehicle assembly and export hub for companies such as Toyota and Honda. The country produces about 1.5 to 2 million cars annually, about half of which are exported.
The Thai government is currently aiming to produce 725,000 EVs annually by 2030. This corresponds to 30% of total automobile production. The country offers a number of affordable EVs made by Chinese automakers. Great Wall Motor unveiled his ORA Goodcat model at the annual motor show for 828,500 baht ($22,600). The Chinese manufacturer also plans to produce the model in Thailand in 2024.
Another Chinese automaker, Hozon Auto, unveiled the NETA V last month for 549,000 baht ($15,000). Meanwhile, Indonesian President Joko Widodo in August urged Tesla to build cars and batteries in the country.

Genre: Biographical Documentary
Rated: R for violent content and language.
Meet James Quinn McDonagh and Paddy "The Lurcher" Joyce. Related by blood and separated by a feud that dates back generations. As the heads of rival families, they train to represent their feuding travelling clans, in their long-standing history of violent bare-knuckle boxing.
Knuckle is a rare chance to step inside one of the world's most vibrant and elusive communities. Travellers are normally silent about certain parts of their lifestyle. Never before has such a portrayal of their fighting traditions been committed to film.
Shot in an observational style, Knuckle presents a hard edged portrait of Traveller male culture and explores the bond of loyalty, the need for revenge and the pressures to fight for the honour of your family name. Prepare to witness the secretive world of travellers and their way of settling scores. No gloves, no padding, just Knuckle.
I had never planned to make a film about bare-knuckle boxing. I stumbled across this secretive world and was drawn into it.
In 1997 I knew very little about Travellers and I knew nothing about their feuding and tradition of organised fist fighting. I had been introduced to a Traveller family called the McDonaghs who lived in the small town of Navan about twenty miles north of Dublin. As I got to know the McDonaghs I started to research a film about their family history and traditions.
One of their daughters was due to be married and they asked me if I would video the wedding. I filmed it, and gave the bride and groom the footage. The groom was called Michael Quinn McDonagh and I met his older brothers, James and Paddy, at the reception.
A few weeks later I got a call from one of the brothers' I had met at the wedding, Paddy Quinn McDonagh. His brother James had a fight coming up and they invited me to video it. I shot the fight and it was like a door into a hidden world had opened up before me and I stepped through into the world of bare-knuckle fighting. That first fight was an exhilarating experience and I knew immediately that I wanted to learn more about this world of clan feuding. It turned out to be the beginning of a journey that was to last for the next 12 years.
I had no real plan, I started hanging around and getting to know the three Quinn McDonagh brothers, James, Michael, Paddy and their extended family. Occasionally they would call me if a fight was being organised.
I decided that I would try to make a film from within the family, letting their world reveal itself. My approach was simple; use a small camera, get close and spend as much time with them as possible. It was a method called hanging around.
I worked largely alone and perhaps it was because I had no particular plan that I started to video any fight I heard about and rather than analyse the footage, I would put the tapes away. I was hooked on the thrill of the immediate experience of the fights and found it difficult to take a step back from that to concentrate on how to shape it into a film.
I never intended to film for so many years but I would follow one outbreak of the feud to the next. When the feud temporarily calmed down, usually after a fight had taken place, I never felt that I had reached a conclusion. So I would start filming again when the next round of feuding and fights began.
I filmed with the two other Traveller families, the Joyces and the Nevins, who are involved in this feud but my real focus was on James Quinn McDonagh and his younger brother Michael.
For years the tapes lay in a box in my spare bedroom. The Travellers would ask when the film was coming out but I couldn't finish it. It had gone on too long and I had got into the habit of shooting some material and putting the tapes in the box without looking at them. I had no real idea what material I had.
Finally I decided to contact Ollie Huddleston, a film editor whose work I admired and he agreed to work with me. He then introduced me to my eventual producer, Teddy Leifer
A film emerged from the box of tapes. What started out, as a fascination with bare knuckle fighting became a film about the relationship between brothers. It became a film about sibling rivalry and the destruction caused by the Traveller obligation to defend their family name.
It took 14 years to get there.
-- Ian Palmer, Director of KNUCKLE

I found that I can pull the wings out, leave the servo leads connected, and lie the wings across the wing strut and horizontal stabs, which makes it much easier to transport. I still have to install and adjust the flap push-rods, but I'm fine with that...It's much better than having to fish those leads down AND install the flap push-rods every time I want to bring it to the field.

Morocco’s exports of fresh and processed berries totalled 157,616 tons in the first four months of 2023 compared to 218,904 in the same period last year, representing a 28% drop, due to competition from the Egyptian market and adverse weather.
The president of the Association of Berry Producers, Amine Bennani, was pessimistic regarding the situation of the international market due to the tough competition from Egyptian berry exports, especially frozen ones (exported between March and October) and also the “instability” of the European market, the main destination for these products.
The berries that suffered the greatest drop in exports were blueberries and strawberries, with falls of 79% and 62%, respectively.
According to Bennani, the production of these fruits was also slightly affected this year by adverse weather, such as high temperatures in October that accelerated the flowering process.
According to figures from last year, the European Union accounts for 79% of Moroccan berry exports (the main client was Spain with 20.4%, followed by the Netherlands with 19.1%). Around 75% of the berries in Morocco are produced in the Gharb region (between Kenitra and Larache) and the rest in the southern area of Souss-Massa, with 90% of the inputs for the cultivation of these fruits coming from Spain.

A “Big Day” is birder lingo for a 24-hour period where you try to see/hear as many species as possible. The record in North America, set by Team Sapsucker from Cornell University in 2013, is 294 species. I’m using the term “Big Day” here, but by no means is it the same thing. I try to start off the first day of a New Year by seeing as many birds as I possibly can throughout the day. However, I’m usually thwarted in my attempts because of family obligations or a potential hang-over from partying too much the night before.
The first day of 2014, however, was as close to an actual “Big Day” as I’ve ever come. I started out at the crack of dawn (7:30am) meeting my friend Peter Hirst near our apartment in Duam-dong. Melanie opted to come with us, so the three of us set out in Peter’s car to start 2014 at the Gwangjuho Lake Eco-Park. On the drive there we spotted the first bird of 2014 – not surprisingly, a Eurasian magpie. Shortly afterwards we saw an enormous flock of birds swirling in the sky. These were small passerines, and though they made no flight calls (which was unusual), I identified them as bramblings, a visiting winter finch. The flock easily numbered about 300 birds. The third bird of the year was a lone white-cheeked starling sitting on a telephone wire along the road.
We arrived at Gwangjuho Lake, spotting a common buzzard on a tree near the lake, a couple mallards on the water, and a single little egret foraging in the shallows. The parking lot held Eurasian tree sparrows, azure-winged magpies, and Japanese tits.
The trees near the entrance of the Eco-Park were dripping with bramblings. Further along the walkways we found oriental turtle-doves, a grey wagtail, and brown-eared bulbuls. The exposed shoreline of the lake revealed white wagtails of the leucopsis and lugens subspecies, as well as two long-billed plovers. On the water were more mallards, common mergansers, and tufted ducks.
After a few hours at the Eco-Park, we had tallied nearly 30 species, including bull-headed shrike, grey-faced woodpecker, red-flanked bluetail, Daurian redstart, yellow-throated bunting, and rustic bunting. Before heading out to our next spot, we checked along a small country road in the mountains for passerines. It was a worthwhile stop, as we added Eurasian jay and goldcrest to our day total.
Peter knew of some good lookouts along the Yeongsan River nearby, so we headed out to the river to look for waterfowl. The majority of ducks on the river were Eurasian teal, but we also found decent numbers of northern pintail, gadwall, eastern spot-billed duck, and whooper swan. Other waterbirds included grey heron, great egret, little grebe, and Eurasian coot. We also had the good fortune to spot some raptors along the river, including another common buzzard, two Eurasian kestrels, and a passing Eurasian sparrowhawk.
After a nice lunch of mulguksu (물국수) at a small restaurant near the river, we decided to stop at one of the pagodas and watch the water for anything to float by. There were mostly Eurasian teal on the water here, as well as a group of domestic geese that are resident along this stretch of the river. A few passerines like long-tailed tit, brown-eared bulbul, and yellow-billed grosbeak were also spotted. Before leaving the Yeongsan River behind, we spotted a single Eurasian moorhen among a flock of teal. We left the Yeongsan River with a day total of 45 species.
The light was beginning to fade as we hurried to our last stop for the day: the Gakhwa reservoir. I was hoping to pick up a few more passerines here, but our timing was off and we only added pale thrush at this location. We did manage to find a good variety of birds, including the now regular little grebes on the reservoir (only 9 out of the usual 11 birds), a few more Daurian redstarts and red-flanked bluetails, and lots of vinous-throated parrotbills and yellow-throated buntings. The fading light did not tempt any owls to start calling, though I was hoping to hear the regular oriental scops-owls that breed in the area.
At the end of the “Big Day” we had tallied 46 species altogether. A far cry from Cornell’s Big Day record, but for me it was a personal high count for the first day of a New Year. I hope this sets the pace for the rest of 2014.

Magura are best known for their excellent brakes and suspension but they also make wheels, like the lightweight Pro. The overall feeling is light but solid, and the attention to detail is evident in the DT XR 4.1D rim, which is welded using a process called Strength Boost Welding Technology. This strengthens the point at which the alloy rim ends meet, producing a seamless weld. The eyelets are stainless steel and these, with the CNC machined sidewalls, produce a clean, mean look.
The rim is attached to the hub using DT double-butted spokes that are tight and true. We tested the 32-spoke version but 28 and 36 are also available. The hub is branded Magura, but is actually a DT Swiss 240 (front and rear), so it’s light and tough, and it has high quality sealed cartridge bearings, which should keep it up and running for a long time. It’s also drilled for a standard six-bolt rotor so brake compatibility shouldn’t be an issue and the quick release skewer is nicely shaped. From the second we started riding a set of Magura Pros, they felt strong and confidence inspiring – their low weight was noticeable on climbs and they gave a good account of themselves on the descents. They aren’t for heavy-duty freeride use but they’d certainly get close. Overall, they’re excellent for anyone who’s serious about hard XC riding.

Telus m620 Hands On
Electronista just yesterday picked up its test model of the Telus Samsung m620, and we're putting the phone through its initial paces as we speak. While it's too early to provide a definitive review, our early look at the phone suggests that Americans familiar with the device as the Sprint UpStage might be surprised to find that the software isn't just the Sprint interface with a different carrier badge; Telus clearly wants subscribers using its Mobile Music (subscription store) and Mobile Radio (Internet streaming of XM Satellite Radio stations) rather than just buying songs or sideloading their own. So far, the concept is smart: the selection of radio stations is smaller, but an unlimited music store subscription means you can download as many tracks as you like anywhere you can get EVDO coverage -- a concept that works better than subscriptions on computers, where metered Internet access and storage space are less pressing issues than on a phone.
Our first impressions of the hardware are good, but still mixed. The m620 is small but easy to grip, and it's thin enough for smaller pockets without the impression that it might break in an accident. Many of Samsung's claims about having good controls on either side of the device are validated in practice: the directional pad and keys on the front are large enough that accidental presses would be difficult, and having the large screen plus touchpad on the back are a useful compromise between the small screens and controls of most phones and the full control but larger bulk of a smartphone.
The bundled "battery wallet," which Samsung claims adds up to 6.3 hours, is perhaps one of the more intelligent bundled accessories we've seen to date; it gives the user a good case and an extended battery straight out of the box without adding much bulk. The combination still fits quite snugly and could easily be carried around by most people.
We can already say, however, that there are a few caveats that may prove to be serious issues in the long run. Besides the potential irritation of having to flip the phone to enter text on a website or add a contact, we also have concerns about the responsiveness of the custom Telus interface and the sensitivity of the touchpad. Whether or not the m620 also fares well as a media phone in the wake of the iPhone and in the context of other phones is also debatable, as it's clear there are some areas where Samsung has done little to change the phone experience despite the benefit of a new control scheme.
Look for answers to these questions when our final review appears within the next several days.

I intend to continue to pursue liberalised trade very aggressively because it is great for an export nation like Australia. However, while many of our discounted theatre tickets are ongoing offers, some of our very best West End theatre offers are seasonal specials so you should check back regularly to catch the latest cheap deals. With room for up to four guests, you'll have two lower beds that convert into a queen size bed and additional bedding to accommodate two more.

The 2019 attacks on the oil processing facilities in Saudi Arabia and the effectiveness of combating Armenian long-range anti-aircraft systems have highlighted the nature and scale of the challenges for air defense posed by unmanned aircraft systems. The aim of this article is to summarize the lessons learned from the use of unmanned systems in recent conflicts, to assess the development of trends in such systems, and to discuss the implications of those developments for air defense. This article discusses the impact of the development of unmanned aircraft systems on air defense concepts, their organization, and the effectiveness of this defense for the defended assets. It also tries to highlight how unmanned aircraft systems may reduce the survivability of air defense systems. This research is based on publicly available documents related to air defense and unmanned aircraft systems as well as selected analytical studies on the implications of the development and use of unmanned aircraft systems for air defense. As such, this research identifies the possible challenges related to ensuring effective air defense against attacks by unmanned aircraft systems, resulting from the costs of defense despite the availability of technological solutions. It also raises the issue of survivability of air defense systems if attacked by unmanned aircraft systems.

While i would tend to agree, these dont need the HUGE power to lift off which would require a HUGE amount of fuel to do, which is why they drop from
aircraft to get their speed up to make the wings lift work.
So in reality they cant lift off at all. Or you could say they do need a huge amount of fuel to lift off and that would be the fuel that the
helicopter uses to get them in the air in the first place.
In my opinion, they dont have the power to lift off (and they might burn their legs if they had, say 4 engines, either side) and if they did have the
power, they would use up so much fuel that they probably wouldnt get very long to fly around and landing again afterwards would be completely out of
Thats basing on the engines they have now, guessing by the 5-10 minute flight time they get from jumping/parachuting.
Of course with lighter, smaller, more efficient, more powerful jets, it could be doable. When that sort of ratio becomes a thing of reality - we
shall have to wait to find out!
I dont know how much extra power they would need to think about a stationary starting position, or how complex a landing without a parachute could be.
Perhaps with electronic drone style rotors or some combo could work, no idea. But it seems that landing poses a bigger problem than taking off would
be, even if the power was there.

Treat your lips to extra beneficial care. Nu Colour Replenishing Lipstick enhances the appearance of your lips by providing rich, non-feathering colour and the added protection of hydroxytyrosol, the key ingredient in Celltrex Ultra.
This patented ingredient provides powerful antioxidant, tissue-nurturing benefits for smooth youthful looking lips.
Keeps lips looking younger. Every time you use Replenishing Lipstick you protect your lips on a cellular level. Because delicate lip tissue is more prone to environmental damage, Replenishing Lipstick features powerful antioxidant protection from skin -ageing free radicals.
Retexturises lip tissue. Restructures the texture of your lips. Alleviates cracking and dryness. Keeps lips feeling hydrated, healthy and smooth.
Non-feathering formula. Delivers creamy colour that does not bleeds into liplines. Created to make lips look younger.
Smooth glide application. Unique formula feels velvety smooth going on and delivers an even and continuous layer of colour. Keeps lips feeling soft and moist throughout the day.
Apply in long, even strokes, working from the centre of the lips outward and then blot. If more shine is desired, use Shining Effects Lip Gloss after applying lipstick.
Hydroxytyrosol – the key tissue nurturing component of Mediterranean extra virgin olive oil and a featured ingredient in Celltrex® Ultra Recovery Fluid, this patented, potent antioxidant and free radical fighter provides protection on a cellular level to enhance and improve the beauty of your lips. It has also been shown to slow the ageing process in the skin by stabilising the cell plasma membrane.
Dipalmitoyl hydroxyproline (DPHP) – an amino acid that is synthesised in the body and essential for collagen synthesis, DPHP helps fortify lip tissue so moisture content is increased and cracking and dryness are alleviated. UV radiation, stress, pollution and chronological ageing can cause ageing of the delicate lip tissue, which can lead to flaccid skin, diminished tone and firmness, the development of wrinkles and the loss of structure and moisture content.

Temperatures in the US have been running far below normal. Cold air holds less water than warm air.
So if you say “snow cover in 49 states is due to more moisture in the air from global warming” – then you have absolutely no idea WTF you are talking about. The air is not warm, and Sea Surface Temperatures are also running well below normal.
The widespread snow cover is due to cold, not the imaginary warmth inside your computer model.

4 Natural Deodorants That Actually Work
Switching to a natural beauty routine is great in theory. Who doesn’t want to rely on plant-based products to look and feel their best? But when it comes to your pits, au natural doesn’t quite carry the same cachet. In fact, it’s quite the opposite and chances are, you’ll need to loosen your expectations a bit.
Jessica Alba, actress and founder of Honest Beauty Company (and green-beauty queen) even admitted to the perils of natural deodorants in her book, The Honest Life.
“I won’t lie. If I have to walk a red carpet or give a big presentation, I’m reaching for that trustworthy but toxin-filled Big Name Super-Strong Antiperspirant. You can’t risk pit stains in those high-pressure situations, and the nontoxic deodorant formulas just aren’t there yet.”
The good news is, even us non-Hollywood folk can benefit from the new technology that is vastly improving the natural deodorant category. In other words, you no longer have to choose between stinky vs. synthetic. The key to finding the right formula for you? Get realistic about your expectations. Is wetness your issue? Or are you more concerned with smell? A natural deodorant will never replace a traditional antiperspirant that contains aluminum (no, this doesn’t mean it causes breast cancer) and works by blocking sweat glands. It will, however, provide a healthy option for neutralizing scent, moderate wetness protection and well, deodorizing. If there’s one piece of advice we can offer it’s this: give the product a chance to work. Trying something for a few days just doesn’t cut it when it comes to adopting a new habit or making the switch to a natural deodorant. Try opting for the trial size (if available) to see if it’s a fit.
Here are the natural deodorants that made our cut based on a specific type/need.
Best baking soda-free formula:
Those with a baking soda intolerance will appreciate this sensitive-friendly formula that boasts plant and mineral powders alongside citrusy essential oils from grapefruit, sweet orange and lemon. The bonus? Its packaging is made from biodegradable paper.
Lavender can be polarizing when it comes to scent but the effect is more subtle than strong, thanks to the tangerine component. These essential oils don’t just smell pretty, they’re also anti-bacterial and help soothe and balance out the moisture of your skin. Since this contains baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) be sure to do a test patch since some people have a reaction to this ingredient.
Natural deodorants that use crystals or mineral salts aren’t new but it is when it’s in liquid form. Rather than just masking smell with a calming floral scent of lavender and ylang ylang, this deodorant also neutralizes it, thanks to liquid mineral salt. Be sure to let it dry before getting dressed.
This kit is the first of its kind and aims to make the transition to a natural deodorant easier (and less stinky) by way of detox. It includes a booster bar, bamboo charcoal deodorant and charcoal detox hot bath to ensure your five stages of detox are carried through. Anyone who has ever tried to make the switch, only to quit a few days later will appreciate this groundbreaking, multi-prong approach.

Dude Who Tried To Swim Back Into A SLAYER Show After Being Ejected Immortalized on Beer Can
In May 2018, a fan, Chris LaRocque, was ejected from Slayer's final show at at the Budweiser Stage in Toronto, ON and tried to swim back to into the island-centric venue before cops once again apprehended him, and treated him for potential hypothermia. It was the end of his Slayer adventure, but not the end of his journey.
Exclaim! reports a new limited edition Budweiser can is being served at the venue to celebrate the venue's 25th anniversary, honoring 25 acts that performed in the venue. Chris LaRocque is one of the moments featured on the can – complete with his Anthrax shirt and droplets falling off of him.
LaRocque shared the photo on Facebook with the caption "I wonder if I can get free beer?" He told Exclaim that he was kicked out by security after having one too many drinks. "I was a little inebriated, not like fall-down drunk or nothing, but I was feeling pretty good," LaRocque admitted. "I was just like headbanging and moshing around a little bit."
LaRocque went viral after Scott Ian shared photos of his journey. Seriously, get this dude a beer!

Leaked U.S. Intel Document Claims Serbia Agreed to Arm Ukraine
The classified document was among dozens posted online
Serbia, the only country in Europe that has refused to sanction Russia for its invasion of Ukraine, agreed to supply arms to Kyiv or has sent them already, according to a classified Pentagon document.
The document, a summary of European governments' responses to Ukraine's requests for military training and "lethal aid" or weapons, was among dozens of classified documents posted online in recent weeks in what could be the most serious leak of U.S. secrets in years.
Serbia's Defense Minister Milos Vucevic dismissed the intel as "untrue" in a statement on Wednesday.

A cheeky ice hockey presenter shared a snap of herself covering her chest with two pineapples on holiday.
Yulia Ushakova, 29, posed for the post on a boat as it cruised through the water in Thailand.
And Yulia, who works for HC Spartak Moscow, wasn't shy in posing topless while covering herself with the fruit.
She shared the post to her 530,000 Instagram followers, and it drew more than 70,000 likes.
Yulia is no stranger to posting daring snaps on social media.
Last year, her club were accused of sexism after sharing a snap of her on a treatment table wearing nothing but a thong.
She hit back, saying her body should be celebrated and she would never "hide it".
The post earned her thousands of new followers.
Alongside her latest post, the former body builder wrote: "I wish everyone such a mood.
"Good morning, country. Yesterday we had a really nice time with the girls on the marine.
"We took a million pictures, I’ll soon show. The output is counted, we’re going further.
"Two workouts a day, seafood and psychological trainings – all this makes us better every day. And how are you doing?"
On the holiday, she shared a range of other snaps in the sun.

Microbiological preparation fastening the process of silage production.
- Facilitates the fermentation process
- Reduces loses in the silage
- High concentration of bacteria
Silac strong contains bacteria that facilitates fermentation process in both good and bad weather conditions. Selected strains, producing lactic acid, contribute to very fast decrease of pH and stabilization of silage in just a few weeks. Other strains produce acids, having negative influence on fungi and yeasts, decreasing probability of their development after opening the silage, which is very important during feeding with silage during summer time. As a result, after using Silac strong, we decrease probability of heating and spoiling of the silage. Corn grains, fermented with addition of Silac strong, can be used as a feed component for dairy and meet cows, pigs and poultry.
How to use
Pour the content of 500g package into about 50 liters of water and stir until dissolved. Durability of product is 12 hours. The solution can be used on the field, through the applicator mounted on the collecting equipment or during silage preparation by spraying the successive layers. 500g of Silac strong is enough for 50 tons of raw material. is achieved within 24 hours of dissolution.

The new hot items in trauma care are thromboelastography (TEG) and ROTEM (thromboelastometry), a new spin on TEG from the TEM Corporation. These tools allow for in-depth assessment of factors that influence clotting. We know that rapidly recognizing and treating coagulopathy in major trauma patients can reduce mortality. So many trauma centers are clamoring to buy this technology, citing improved patient care as the reason.
But new technology is always expensive, and isn’t always all it’s cracked up to be. TEG and ROTEM require an expensive machine and a never-ending supply of disposable cartridges for use. Some hospitals are reluctant to provide the funds unless there is a compelling clinical need.
Surgeons at the University of Cincinnati compared the use of TEG with good, old-fashioned point-of-care (POC) INR testing in a series of major trauma patients seen at their Level I center.
Here are the factoids:
- This was a retrospective review of 628 major trauma patients who received both TEG and POC INR testing using an iSTAT device over a 1.5 year period
- Median ISS was 13, and there were many sick patients (20% in shock, 21% received blood, 11% died)
- INR correlated with all TEG values, with better correlation in patients in shock
- Both INR and TEG correlated well with treatment with blood, plasma, and cryoprecipitate
- Processing time was 2 minutes for POC INR vs about 30 minutes for TEG
- Charges for POC INR were $22,000 vs $397,000 for TEG(!!)
Bottom line: Point of care INR testing and TEG both correlate well with the need for blood products in major trauma patients. But POC INR is much cheaper and faster. Granted, the TEG gurus will say that you can tailor the products administered to meet the exact needs of the patient. But in all my travels, I have never visited a center that has fully and effectively incorporated TEG or ROTEM into their massive transfusion protocol. Before you make the financial leap to buy these new toys, make sure that you have a very good clinical reason to do so.

As of January 1, 2015, Washington State residents will be able to recycle mercury-containing lights at no charge, through the LightRecycle Washington Program. You can drop lights off at authorized Collection Sites throughout Washington State. Categories of acceptable lights include fluorescent tubes, compact fluorescent lights (CFLs) and high intensity discharge lights (HIDs),
- Why Recycle?
- Reducing mercury releases in two steps.
Step 1: Use energy-efficient lighting. Step 2: Recycle your lights.
Washington State law now requires that all mercury-containing lights be recycled. All fluorescent and High Intensity Discharge lights contain mercury – a potent neurotoxin. Although a single fluorescent light contains a very small amount of mercury, millions of these lights are sold every year in Washington State. Taken together, the mercury from fluorescent lights and HIDs has potential to harm human health and the environment if not properly recycled.
Unbroken lights are safe to handle and use. Disposing of mercury-containing lights in regular garbage can cause the mercury to be released if they break. Recycling these lights prevents the mercury from being released. Since mercury can vaporize at room temperature, mercury could be released from broken lights in your home, in landfills, or at any point in-between. Mercury can be particularly harmful to children, infants and fetuses by impairing neurological development.
Reducing mercury releases in two steps.
Step 1: Use energy-efficient lighting.
It’s not close. Fluorescent lights use far less electricity than incandescent lighting. According to the US Department of Energy, fluorescent lights use 25-80% less energy and can last 3-25 times longer than incandescent bulbs.
This is an important step because roughly half of the electricity in the United States is produced by coal-burning power plants. Since mercury occurs naturally in coal, it is released when the coal is burned. In the United States, “Coal-burning power plants are the largest human-caused source of mercury emissions…” (www.epa.gov/hg/about.htm). In short, using mercury-containing lights reduces mercury emissions by reducing energy consumption.
Step 2: Recycle your lights.
Recycling lights in Washington has never been easier or less expensive. Just drop your unwanted fluorescent, CFL and HID lights at LightRecycle WashingtonCollection Sites throughout the State.
Recycling lights and other materials preserves our finite natural resources, decreases the amount of waste entering landfills, reduces pollution, saves energy and stimulates economic development. Please recycle!

The SS George Washington Carver was a Liberty Ship built under a MARCOM contract to be used in World War II. The ship was named in honor of George Washington Carver, an American botanist, inventor, and environmentalist that developed techniques to prevent soil depletion caused by repeated plantings of cotton in the late 1890s and early 1900. Initially, the ship was used in the war as a merchant ship, but it was allocated by the War Shipping Administration to the US Army and served as a hospital ship under the name of USAHS Dogwood. After the war, the ship was no longer needed as a hospital ship and was converted to carry troops and military dependents. The SS George Washington Carver entered the National Defense Reserve Fleet at Suisun Bay, California in 1947 and was scrapped in January 1964. More than 300 different asbestos-containing materials were used in Navy ships - the intention was to make the ships safer, but it caused long-term health issues for those aboard the ships. The pipes, boilers, paneling, adhesives, and insulating materials are just a few examples of asbestos-covered materials aboard Navy ships from the early 1940s through the late 1970s.

Avian flu has been detected in five wild seabirds on the north coast of Northern Ireland.
Positive results for the disease were recorded in one gannet and four guillemots discovered in Portrush West Strand and Portballintrae.
Last week bird flu was discovered on Rathlin Island.
The Public Health Agency has advised that human infections with avian influenza are rare and that the risk to the general public’s health is very low.
However, the public has been warned not to pick up or touch any dead or injured wild birds as this can cause the disease to spread to other colonies of seabirds or poultry flocks.
The Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (Daera) said it was working closely with public health officials and local councils and has taken proactive measures to improve biosecurity at seabird breeding colonies.
Last year saw the largest ever outbreak of avian flu in the UK which led to a number of disease control measures being introduced in Northern Ireland.

Introduction: Although interethnic differences in survival to cytotoxic chemotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer exist, an analysis of survival outcomes based on ethnicity has not yet been fully evaluated systematically using large patient cohorts. Furthermore, recent trial results may be confounded by the use of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). Methods: A meta-analysis was performed using trials identified through MEDLINE. Summary data on median overall survival (OS), time to progression, progression-free survival, and overall response rate (ORR) were collected from randomized controlled trials. Outcomes were compared between Asian and Caucasian studies. Results: Of the 1182 citations identified, 391 treatment arms (Asian 90 and Caucasian 301) were analyzed. The median OS and ORR in Asian and Caucasian studies for all chemotherapy regimens was 10.1 and 8.0 months (p < 0.001) and 32.2 and 25.9% (p < 0.001), respectively. The median OS in Asian and Caucasian studies for monotherapy, platinum doublets, and three drugs or more combination was 9.9 and 6.8 months, 10.4 and 8.6 months, and 9.4 and 8.0 months, respectively (all p < 0.001). In studies published pre-EGFR TKI, the median OS and ORR in Asian and Caucasian studies for all chemotherapy regimens was 9.1 versus 7.3 months (p < 0.001), respectively, and 29.0 and 23.0% (p < 0.006), respectively. The median OS in Asian and Caucasian studies for monotherapy, platinum doublets, and three drugs or more combination pre-EGFR TKI was 8.9 and 6.5 months (p < 0.005), 9.1 and 7.5 months (p < 0.001), and 9.3 and 7.6 months (p < 0.003), respectively. In third-generation platinum doublets, the median OS in Asian and Caucasian studies was 11.3 and 9.5 months (p < 0.001), respectively, and ORR was 35.0 and 29.8% (p < 0.001), respectively. Conclusion: Ethnic differences in survival and response rate to chemotherapy exist and should be considered in clinical trial designs especially in the global context.

Sauteed Pork Chops with Mustard and Tarragon Sauce for Two
Why This Recipe Works
Pork chops are relatively fast to cook, making them an ideal easy weeknight meal. But all too often they turn out dry and tough, so we wanted to find a simple way to guarantee the elusive juicy, tender pork chop. Cooking the pork chops entirely over a medium-high flame resulted in meat that was dry on the outside and underdone in the center, while a cooler flame ensured a properly cooked center but left the exterior pale. In order to achieve a well-browned exterior and a properly cooked center, we cooked the chops over two levels of heat. First we seared the chops on one side over medium-high heat. Once they had browned, we flipped the chops, reduced the heat to medium, and let them reach the proper internal temperature. This recipe will work with any type of pork chop, but the rib chop is our favorite.

Q1 2016 saw a further increase in leasing and development activity on the industrial and warehouse property market in Poland, according to the latest report by Cushman & Wakefield. The Upper Silesia region remained the largest regional market on the warehouse map of Poland.
Approximately 1 850 000 sq. meters of modern stock were recorded in Upper Silesia as of the end of March 2016. In Q1 2016 approximately 86 000 sq. meters of new warehouse space were delivered to the market, which was almost three times more than in the same quarter of 2015 (30 000 sq. meters). Warsaw Suburbs accounted for the largest amount of space delivered to the Polish market (141 000 sq. meters) last quarter, followed by Upper Silesia.
The first quarter still indicated a healthy development activity in Poland, with some 783 000 sq. meters of modern warehouse space under construction. More than 75% of this volume was found on main industrial markets, such as Poznań(184 000 sq. meters), Warsaw Suburbs (110 000 sq. meters), Central Poland (106 000 sq. meters) and Upper Silesia (91 000 sq. meters).
Take-up remained at a high level in Upper Silesia and stood at 144 000 sq. meters, almost doubling the result recorded in the Q1 2015. Warsaw Suburbs boasted the second highest leasing volume (140 000 sq. meters).
Among transactions conducted in Upper Silesia in Q1 2016 and mentioned by Cushman & Wakefield in the report are leasing agreements signed by GTX Hanex Plastics, a leading manufacturer of thermoforming film, preform sand PET bottles in Poland, which has renegotiated a contract of over 4 600 sq. meters in Prologis Park Dąbrowa as well as RTV Euro AGD, a countrywide household appliances retailer, which has leased approximately 1 400 sq. meters in Prologis Park Chorzów.
Vacancy rates at the end of March 2016 reached 4,3% (80 000 sq. meters) in Upper Silesia, posting a decrease by 4,2 p.p. year-on-year. Base rents in the region stood at EUR 2,9 – 3,4 per one square meter per month. The effective rents were between EUR 2,2 – 3,1 per one square meter per month.

Logan Kelly scored 20 points as Governor Livingston won their season opener 58-42 over Scotch Plains. The senior guard proved that he has the ability to get to the basket at will and provided the Highlanders with key baskets down the stretch.
The Raiders had pulled to within five points at 47-42 with just over three minutes left in the contest and appeared to be on the verge of taking the lead and stealing one on the road. Instead, Kelly and senior backcourt mate Reid Harrison (11 points) led a rally that saw Governor Livingston score the game’s final 11 points.
Governor Livingston started the game much like they finished it, opening the first quarter with a 12-0 run that their opponents never really recovered from.
“I thought defensively we took them out of the game early and really flattened them out,” said Governor Livingston head coach Steve Petruzzelli.
The run also served as a coming out party of sorts for junior forward Cameron DeFronzo whose starting nod was also the first action of his varsity career. DeFronzo responded to coach Petruzzelli’s faith in him with an 11-point effort including five early points much to the delight of the raucous Highlander crowd.
“We have one of the greatest stories around,” said Petruzzelli. “He got cut from the middle school team twice. Barely made our freshman team. Was the tenth man on a JV team who won seven games. Then, he starts tonight and plays really well.”
Trailing 13-2 to open the second quarter, Scotch Plains began to settle in on both ends of the floor and find junior forward Thomas Bonacum (11 points) who was able to use his combination of size and athleticism to get to the basket with relative ease. Despite finding some offensive success in the second period the Raiders still entered the locker room at the half trailing 24-14.
The second half began looking as though it would feature more of the same as Governor Livingston opened up a 30-14 lead behind a 6-0 run.
With the game on the verge of getting out of reach, Scotch Plains finally began to find some success on the offensive end as senior guard Ian Johnston was able to weave his way through the defense for some impressive shots.
Johnston finished with 16 points on the night and was also strong on the defensive end where the Raiders were able to use their zone press to create turnovers as they cut into the deficit. The Raiders’ aggressive defensive style allows them to quickly cut into a lead, just as they did on this night.
Scotch Plains pulled within three at 35-32 which turned out to be the closest they would come to taking the lead in this contest. Every time that the Raiders seemed to have their opponent on their heels, the Highlanders would respond with a score that seemed to deflate their opponent just enough.
“Logan and Reed struggled a bit in the second half, but when we got into those last three minutes of the game, they came through big,” said Petruzzelli.
With Scotch Plains seemingly running out of gas, Governor Livingston was able to take advantage and close out their opponents with the 11-0 run that left no doubt about who was the better team on this night.
“We said from the very beginning,” said Petruzzelli. “This team has a lot of more upside then they had in the past because of the development of the young guys.”
The Highlanders return to action tonight when they host Bayonne at 7 p.m. while the Raiders also return today at 1 p.m. against Neputne in the Tip-Off Classic at West Orange high school.

Squid and OPTx ifs
Is squid supposed to show the OPTx interfaces to listen on so that traffic from OpenVPN connections are proxied in transparent mode? I've got squid listening on the shown LAN and loopback interfaces.
If so, how do I get squid to refresh the list?
Ok, I clicked enough around and found I needed to enable this interface. Now the enabled OPTx interfaces appear in the squid proxy interface list.

Synopses & Reviews
Dolphins have long been attributed with intelligence, but do they have souls? Self-awareness? Compassion? Scott Taylor, Director of the Cetacean Studies Institute, investigates the history, mythology, and science surrounding these creatures and emerges with a resounding yes. And not only do whales and dolphins merit our attention and respect in their own right: they are an index to what our future as a species can be.
In this multi-faceted cetology compendium, Taylor surveys the portrayal of dolphins and whales in works of literature as disparate as Moby Dick and Sumerian legend, examines biologist John Lilly's research on interspecies communication, and explores the benefits of dolphin-assisted swimming therapy for disabled children and adults. Looking at the world from the perspective of one of these "souls in the sea," Taylor suggests that cetaceans are an ideal bridge between humanity and nature. Poetically written and thoughtfully illustrated with photos and drawings, Souls in the Sea is a comprehensive celebration of the biology, history, and mystique of dolphins and whales.
Australian Scott Taylor has devoted his life to studying dolphins and whales. In this poetic cetology compendium, he shows how the history, mythology, and scientific research surrounding these creatures is an index to what our future as a species can be. The author discusses the portrayal of dolphins and whales in literature, legend, and the Judeo-Christian heritage; the research of biologist John Lilly on interspecies communication; the militarys sinister use of dolphins; and the benefits of dolphin-assisted swimming therapy for disabled children and adults. Poetic and mystical, Taylor looks at the world from the perspective of these creatures, demonstrating how they connect humanity to the natural world. Color and black-and-white photos and illustrations add to this celebration of the biology, history, and mystique of dolphins and whales.
Scott Taylor has devoted his life to research, education and experiential programmes on dolphins and whales. In this book he looks at the world from a dolphin's perspective and imagines what it would be like if our world were framed more from this perspective.

Report reveals how Mac Jones feels about Matt Patricia
There was some tension between Mac Jones and Matt Patricia during New England’s 24-10 loss to Buffalo in Week 13, but apparently there are no hard feelings.
Jones was seen complaining about the playcalling during the defeat. The Patriots quarterback wanted to throw the ball deep because he felt the short game wasn’t producing.
Ahead of the Week 14 “Monday Night Football” game between the Patriots and Arizona Cardinals, ESPN reporter Lisa Salters shared a follow-up report on the matter.
She talked with Jones during the week and shared what the quarterback said about his relationship with Patricia, who is in his first season as New England’s offensive coordinator.
“As for his relationship with Patricia, Jones told us, ‘I talk to Matty P. every day. Sometimes it’s at 4 in the morning. Sometimes it’s 8 at night. I have no problem with Matty P.’ Jones said it’s all about being on the same page and that he and his new playcaller had a lot of conversations about that this week. Conversations he said they need to have,” Salters reported.
“While he said there have definitely been growing pains this season, Jones said, ‘now it feels like a good time to turn the corner.'”
Salters said that Jones’ complaint about the offense last week fired up the team.
The Patriots’ offense has been an issue of question ever since the preseason. Bill Belichick never hired an experienced offensive coordinator to replace Josh McDaniels, who left to coach the Las Vegas Raiders. Patricia and Joe Judge were seemingly in a tryout for the spot, with Patricia winning out. The results have not been favorable as the Pats are 19th in the league in points scored per game and 24th in yards.

WASHINGTON COUNTY, N.Y. (NEWS10) – Washington County Public Health is catching up on COVID-19 vaccine doses this week, after PODs scheduled for a recent weekend were called off due to weather delays in getting vaccines where they were needed.
This week, the county received 600 doses allocated for essential personnel; 400 first doses, 211 second. They also received 200 first doses for people ages 65 and older.
Those 65 and older doses are by appointment only through registration set to go live through the coronavirus page of the Washington County website. That registration opens at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, March 3.
The 400 first doses for essential personnel are going out in two closed, pre-arranged clinics for school employees, set for Tuesday and Thursday, March 2 and 4.
The batch of second doses for essential workers is going to people who have been waiting to receive their second doses since the recent delay. Last week, doses intended to be first doses instead replaced the second doses the county was missing.
The county was also given an undisclosed number of vaccines to be distributed to people living with comorbidities, in an effort in cooperation with the New York State Office for People with Developmental Disabilities.
All vaccines are only to be given to the groups within New York’s Phase 1B they are allocated for.

WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING
We absolutely loved this sourdough bread! Not only delicious tasting but beautiful looking, nicely packaged and ready right as promised! Try it....I think you’ll love it!
This is my third time to enjoy the wonders of Red Branch and have blabbed to every single human I know about the goodness in every bite!
I was beyond pleased with my first experience ordering baked goods from Red Branch Bakery. Online ordering and curbside pick-up were easy as could be, and Kelly is delightful. She let me know about the best ways to store things etc while social distancing and mask-wearing during pick up. The Ono Pineapple bread is beyond yummy and was gone in a flash. We highly recommend the mini rye sourdough loaves… perfect for sandwiches. And the beer mustard is exceptional. I’ll be back! Plus, I’m spreading the word.
We served the cranberry walnut bread to guests from out of state. They absolutely loved it. I’ll have to share with them for their upcoming road trip.
Wow! They are delicious. Warm when I picked them up, thought I would just have a bite - ended up eating the whole thing! Plan to make sandwiches with the rest of them.
Thank you for always providing a great product at a reasonable price. I love giving your items as gifts, well done!
Fresh and delicious
The breads Kelly makes are addictive and this Rye bread is no different--so very good. I had it as a snack tonight as soon as I got home from work. Yummm!
Literally the best chocolate chip cookies I’ve ever had in my life. Hands-down!
one of my family members said it was the second best blueberry pie, being my mother has the best, he has ever tasted.
We absolutely love the bread you make Kelly! And the loaves were made in only a couple of days, that always amazes me. The Cranberry Walnut Loaf is one of my favorites. I devoured it, almost by myself (well, I did share some of it with my family and they love it too.) Thank you for blessing us so much!
The balance between cookie, salt and chips is perfect. Need to keep my stash a secret to ensure I have enough through the week :). Thank you!
Wow! What a tang and crunch this mustard has. We enjoyed it with Red
Branch rye bread, corned beef, Swiss cheese and sauerkraut. Got rave reviews from our friends over for dinner. Our favorite mustard now!
Excellent! Great texture and flavor.
Outstanding flavors & texture!
Easier to slice, and still has the same great taste.Well br
The brown bread was the talk of our yearly St. Pat’s day dinner. Everyone loved it.
Amazing crust and delicious bread. Eaten in an hour. Gonna keep ordering my bread for the rest of my life from Red Branch Bakery for sure.

When creating music specifically for the Hip Hop genre there are two frequent methods to go about it. One is to use the standard MPC, and an additional is to use DAW (Digital Audio Workstation). Failed computer software upgrades from 1 software version to an additional can leave the user with two licensed versions until the problem is resolved by IT. Even so, software program licensing based on computer software installations indicates that license servers are not necessary. Not every person has had the very same knowledge with Norton products as I’ve had, nonetheless, what I would suggest is take the time to install the application properly and contact Symantec if you have any issues.

Explosive Clare too much for Mustangs
Pioneers jump out to big lead and cruise to 41-13 victory
SANFORD — If there was any question whether Clare is still a formidable opponent in the Jack Pine Conference football wars, the Pioneers answered with a resounding yes on Friday.
A week after suffering a rare conference loss to Roscommon, Clare jumped all over host Meridian in the first half and went on to win 41-13 to improve to 4-1 overall and 3-1 in the JPC. The Mustangs, who played much better in the second half after falling behind by 27 at the break, slip to 2-3 overall and 2-2 in conference play.
"Right now, our backs are up against the wall, sitting at 2-3 and having a really good 4-1 Beaverton team coming in (next week), so it definitely doesn't get any easier," noted Meridian coach Mike Bilina. "But we're fortunate that we get to play another game next week, and that's all we have to worry about right now."
Clare's three main offensive weapons each had a big game, including quarterback Kaden Kelly, who completed 18 of 25 passes for 226 yards and four touchdowns, while also rushing 12 times for 69 yards and a TD.
"He's an all-league quarterback — very intelligent, very sharp," Bilina said. "And he's got some quality kids around him, so that definitely is a challenge."
Meanwhile, running back/slot receiver Brenden Sersaw ran the ball 15 times for 112 yards and a TD and also caught four passes for 51 yards and a score for Clare. Wide receiver Nick Roe added 10 catches for 129 yards and three TDs.
"They make it tough," Bilina said of the athletic and elusive Sersaw and Roe. "They make it a whole new level, because after the catch, you have to worry about making that tackle in the open field, and it's tough."
Meridian wasn't able to get much of anything going offensively in the first half, but the Mustangs woke up in the second half, compiling 221 rushing yards to Clare's 50 after the break. Kyle Stockford, in only his second full game back from injury, led the way with two long TD runs and 151 rushing yards after the intermission.
"He's a special player," Bilina said of Stockford. " ... Even with (Clare focusing on stopping him), he was able to make some pretty big plays for us tonight."
The first half was pretty much all Clare, as the Pioneers scored on the opening possession on a 19-yard TD pass from Kelly to Roe. Aidan Boyd kicked the first of five extra points to make it 7-0. After the teams exchanged fumbles later in the first quarter, the Pioneers struck again on a 21-yard TD pass from Kelly to Sersaw to make it 13-0.
On Clare's next possession, the Pioneers marched the length of the field and scored on Kelly's 12-yard TD pass to Roe for a 20-0 lead midway through the second quarter. Following a quick three-and-out by the Mustangs, Kelly found Roe again, this time for a 25-yard TD strike and a 27-0 advantage which Clare would take into the locker room.
"That's what good teams do — they don't make mistakes, and they execute," Bilina said. " ... We just hoped it was one of those nights where we could bend, bend, bend but not break, and we broke too many times tonight."
After a long drive by Meridian to start the second half ended with a turnover, the Pioneers extended to a 34-0 lead on Sersaw's 16-yard TD run. The Mustangs finally got on the board early in the fourth quarter when Stockford scampered for a 28-yard TD. Gabe Mutai's PAT made it 34-7.
A 1-yard TD run by Kelly gave the Pioneers a 41-7 lead with 8:26 left. Stockford answered for MHS only seconds later with an electrifying 77-yard TD run, making it 41-13 and capping the scoring.
"In the second half, we were able to execute. We were a little sharper, a little more sure of ourselves," Bilina said. "And the kids were just playing. They weren't thinking (too much). That's where we need to be at the start of the game."
Clare finished with a 459-318 advantage in total offense.
Stockford led Meridian with 155 yards and two TDs on 10 carries, while Brett Barriger was 7 of 14 passing for 50 yards and two interceptions.
Brady Solano led MHS's defense with 11 tackles, while Eric Kanyo had 7.5.
The Mustangs will host Beaverton next Friday.
"We're excited about the opportunity and the challenge that faces us next week," said Bilina. "We're going to get back to the drawing board and get ready for Beaverton and just work to make ourselves better."

Hidden Addressing Encoding for DNA Storage
- The Key Laboratory of Advanced Design and Intelligent Computing, Ministry of Education, School of Software Engineering, Dalian University, Dalian, China
DNA is a natural storage medium with the advantages of high storage density and long service life compared with traditional media. DNA storage can meet the current storage requirements for massive data. Owing to the limitations of the DNA storage technology, the data need to be converted into short DNA sequences for storage. However, in the process, a large amount of physical redundancy will be generated to index short DNA sequences. To reduce redundancy, this study proposes a DNA storage encoding scheme with hidden addressing. Using the improved fountain encoding scheme, the index replaces part of the data to realize hidden addresses, and then, a 10.1 MB file is encoded with the hidden addressing. First, the Dottup dot plot generator and the Jaccard similarity coefficient analyze the overall self-similarity of the encoding sequence index, and then the sequence fragments of GC content are used to verify the performance of this scheme. The final results show that the encoding scheme indexes with overall lower self-similarity, and the local thermodynamic properties of the sequence are better. The hidden addressing encoding scheme proposed can not only improve the utilization of bases but also ensure the correct rate of DNA storage during the sequencing and decoding processes.
With the rapid development of information technologies such as the Internet and artificial intelligence, the amount of global information has exploded. In the future, the amount of global data will soon exceed the storage capacity of the current storage media. Therefore, a high-capacity storage medium is urgently needed to store a large amount of data. DNA data storage is a new storage method that can play an important role in saving storage energy and promoting the development of data storage (Newman et al., 2019; Choi et al., 2020; Dong et al., 2020). DNA is a natural information storage medium with high data storage density, long storage time, and low loss rate (Chen et al., 2019; Matange et al., 2021). In the aspects in which the traditional storage methods cannot meet the information needs, DNA data storage has gradually become a popular topic in the research field of biological information (Ceze et al., 2019; Xu et al., 2021).
The basic process of DNA data storage comprises four main steps: encoding, synthesis, sequencing, and decoding (Chen K et al., 2020; Cao et al., 2022; Nguyen et al., 2021), as shown in Figure 1. Church et al. (2012) of Harvard Medical School stored 650 KB of data in DNA. The success of this experiment broke the notion that one could only use DNA to store a small number of bytes as in the early days. Moreover, this experiment stored data in vitro for the first time. This method realized the DNA storage of a larger amount of data and a practical application of DNA storage. Subsequently, the use of DNA to store data has become a hot topic in global research. Many research institutions have conducted research on DNA storage (Mathews et al., 2016; Organick et al., 2020). Grass et al. (2015) encoded an 83 KB file into 4,991 DNA fragments and then encapsulated each fragment with silica gel to finally achieve error-free data recovery. Blawat et al. (2016) developed an efficient and robust forward error correction scheme, which is suitable for DNA storage and can cope with errors in DNA synthesis, sequencing, replacement, etc. This encoding scheme demonstrates the viability of DNA as a long-term storage medium. Erlich and Zirlinsky (2017) used fountain codes to efficiently and concisely construct DNA encoding schemes. Their protocol generates varying numbers of oligonucleotides to achieve highly tunable redundancy without complicating the algorithm design. Erroneous oligonucleotides are removed during encoding, thus preserving high-quality sequencing fragments to ensure highly robust decoding. In their work, 2.15 MB of data was encoded into DNA sequences, and data recovery was realized. Song et al. (2018) proposed a scheme to convert binary sequences into DNA base sequences. The proposed encoding scheme not only achieved a high storage density of 1.9 bit/nt but also reduced the probability of base errors in the DNA sequence during synthesis and sequencing. Lopez et al. (2019) designed and validated an assembly strategy for DNA storage that can be extended to any DNA amplification process requiring nanopore sequencing. Zhang et al. (2020) developed an optimized Base64 method to achieve a high specific storage density of 1.77 bits/nt in DNA single strands. In this strategy, through Base64 encoding, code reconstruction and balance, and data mapping, some random text information was encoded into DNA sequences and the corresponding DNA molecules were synthesized. Then, they were inserted into circular plasmids for long-term information storage. The introduction of balanced codes in the transcoding process effectively controlled the GC content and homopolymers and reduced the error rate of encoding DNA synthesis and sequencing. The method enabled robust and efficient storage, and accurate readout of digital data.
Research has found that achieving random access of DNA sequences not only makes the DNA storage data scheme more functional but also reduces the cost of DNA storage data. Bornholt et al. (2016) described the architecture of a DNA-based archival storage system. The system maps keyword values to data functions and provides random access using common PCR amplification and primer identification. They also proposed a new coding scheme in the coding system that provides controlled redundancy. The feasibility, random accessibility, and robustness of the proposed coding were demonstrated through the synthesis of 151 and 42 KB data. Yazdi et al. (2017) first implemented a portable random-access platform using a nanopore sequencer. They designed an integrated processing pipeline that encodes the data to avoid costly synthesis and sorting errors, and enables random access via addressing. It uses efficient portable sorting through new iterations and includes the removal of error-correcting codes. They implemented a random-access DNA data storage system that used an error-prone nanopore sequencer but still produced error-free reads with the highest reported information rate/density. Therefore, their scheme represents, to a certain extent, a critical step in the practical application of DNA molecules as storage media. Organick et al. (2018) designed a large primer library that could individually read a particular file stored in the DNA. An algorithm was also developed to greatly reduce the coverage of sequencing reads required for error-free decoding by maximizing the information from all the sequence reads. Experiments demonstrated a feasible large-scale DNA data storage and retrieval system that utilizes the primer library to achieve random access to data. Tomek et al. (2019) used chemical processing in this scheme to selectively extract unique files from a complex DNA database simulating 5 TB of data. They designed and implemented a nested file address system that increased the theoretical maximum capacity of DNA storage systems by five orders of magnitude. This advancement enables the development and future expansion of DNA-based data storage systems with modern capacity and file access. Banal et al. (2021) encoded data as the sequences of DNA files encapsulated in silica capsules labeled with DNA barcodes on their surfaces. The scheme utilized Boolean logic operations to directly select barcodes to find files. It was demonstrated that image files were derived from a prototype 2 KB image database using fluorescence sorting, and the corresponding files were accessed. Banal et al. (2021) thus provided a scalable concept that can implement random access capabilities for large datasets in archive files.
In traditional DNA storage systems, DNA sequences are used to store data. Given that it is unrealistic to synthesize ultralong DNA sequences, files are divided into sub-blocks of fixed length, and each piece of data is stored in a short DNA sequence. As the storage of DNA sequences in the DNA pool is unordered, it is necessary to store the index (the position of the sub-block of the file in the file) into the DNA sequence so that the DNA sequence can be sequenced and decoded to restore the original file (Ceze et al., 2019). Li et al. (2018) proposed a DNA-based storage system that uses data concealment (steganography) to process addressing information. The idea is to embed the index into the DNA sequence corresponding to the data and use redundancy to embed the index in the data block. Hiding the index from sequences encoded by traditional schemes reduces unnecessary overhead in DNA storage systems. However, the encoding method using steganography has the problem that the index first needs to be restored from the data in the sequencing and decoding process to complete the sequencing and decoding.
To simplify the steganography decoding process and reduce the cost of the index in the DNA sequence, this article proposes using the hidden addressing method to process the index information for the DNA storage system and directly using the data instead of the index. The hidden addressing data can also directly participate in the decoding process. Compared with steganography to write indexes into data, the process of this solution is simpler and easier to operate. This article not only encodes the data using an encoding scheme of hidden addressing but also analyzes the local performance of the encoded sequence and the indexed overall self-similarity of hidden addressing in the results, and conducts experiments to simulate sequencing. The results showed that the variance of the GC content of the sequenced fragments was 0.004, indicating that the GC content of the coding sequence fragments of this scheme was relatively stable. The local thermodynamic properties of the sequences were better, which promoted the stability of DNA sequencing. The encoding sequence index was replaced by the data and the data were independent of each other, so the overall self-similarity of the index was low, which reduced the probability of errors in the DNA decoding process. The better sequencing effect proves the encoding performance to a certain extent.
The article is organized as follows. In chapter two, the article introduces encoding schemes with the hidden addressing properties and good sequence fragment performance. In chapter three, the results and analysis of the general encoding scheme evaluation indexes such as the overall self-similarity of the encoding scheme index, GC content of the sequence fragments, and net information density are presented. Finally, the fourth chapter contains the conclusion and suggestions for future work.
2 Encoding of Hidden Addressing
This chapter gives a detailed description of the DNA storage encoding scheme with the hidden addressing. This scheme not only achieves the characteristic of hidden addressing in the encoding process but also has the characteristic of a more stable thermodynamic property of the encoded sequence fragments. The specific flow and schematic are also given.
The pseudocode is shown in Algorithm 1. This scheme replaces the index with a few bits of data in the DNA sequence and suppresses the index of DNA sequence. First, the data are grouped so that each group of data is independent of each other, and then, each group of data is segmented to convert each segment of data into a sufficient amount of DNA fragments according to the fountain encoding method. This is because the fountain encoding method can generate a large number of DNA fragments that meet the conditions. In this scheme, each set of data will retain all fragments that satisfy the constraints to facilitate the subsequent selection of indexes from a large number of reserved shards. Therefore, one index DNA fragment and seven DNA fragments that can be decoded with the index are then selected from a large number of retained DNA fragments. Finally, the selected index DNA fragments and the DNA fragments decoded with the index are concatenated into a single DNA sequence output. This process is performed for each set of data until all data encoding is complete.

2.1 Hidden Addresses and Indexes
Erlich and Zielinski (2017) proposed a fountain encoding scheme to construct DNA sequences through Luby transform encoding (Luby, 2002). The data are first grouped, then randomly XORed using a special robust isolation distribution function, and finally packed into many droplets. The droplets that did not meet the constraints were excluded. The droplets that met the constraints were used to synthesize oligonucleotide sequences, and sequencing decoding experiments were performed to achieve complete data recovery. In the fountain encoding scheme, Erlich and Zielinski (2017) used the seed as the index of the sequence to restore the original file. In this article, the method of group encoding is used to conduct fountain encoding in the group, and a hidden addressing method is used with blocks of data instead of indexes. This hides the index in the sequence. More detailed pseudocode for Algorithm 2 is shown.
Algorithm 2. Use data instead of addressing information.

5 select another DNA fragment from the j-th group of data; end
6 If the high similarity of the DNA fragments is selected in the i-th and j-th datasets (where N > i > j)
7 select another DNA fragment from the j-th group of data;
10 return record all selected indices representing the set of data;
11 for N sets of data, each set of data has enough DNA fragments
12 select 7 DNA fragments from each set of data;
The index is hidden from the traditional encoding algorithm, which saves the cost of adding additional indexes. Figure 2 shows the number of bases required for encoding the same piece of data using the hidden addressing scheme and without the hidden addressing scheme. It is clear that the encoding scheme with hidden addressing requires fewer bases than the encoding scheme without the hidden addressing. In the DNA fountain encoding experiment, the author uses the “seed” as an identifier for sequence splicing. The seed is randomly generated, and the sequence similarity corresponding to some seeds is too high, which results in sequence splicing errors. However, in this study, the use of XOR data instead of an index makes the overall self-similarity of the hidden addressing “index” weaker, which can prevent the sequence from being too similar in the process of splicing and avoid sequence splicing errors.
FIGURE 2. Comparison of the required sequence lengths with and without the hidden addressing scheme.
2.2 Constraint Control of Sequence Fragments
Errors such as substitution, insertion, and deletion of bases are prone to occur during the synthesis of DNA sequences during DNA storage and DNA sequencing (Wang et al., 2019). The error rate of each base in the DNA sequencing process is about 1% (Press et al., 2020; Zan et al., 2021). When there are some special sequences in the DNA sequence (GC content is high in the entire DNA sequence and existence of homopolymers of certain bases), this will easily lead to nonspecific hybridization of DNA during storage (Wang et al., 2019). Once the abovementioned hybridization reaction occurs in DNA, it will directly affect the normal progress of the DNA sequencing process, resulting in data read errors and read failures due to sequencing deviations (Chen Y. J et al., 2020; Zan et al., 2021). As this situation may easily cause instability of the DNA sequence, the sequence is generally required to comply with the constraints to reduce the incidence of nonspecific hybridization and reduce the error rate in the process of sequence reading and writing.
(1) The number of GC base pairs contained in the DNA has a great influence on the changes in melting temperature and free energy of DNA molecules. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the G and C content of a DNA sequence should be kept between 45% and 55% (Yin et al., 2021; Cao et al., 2022; Wu et al., 2022). The mathematical formula is as follows:
(2) DNA sequences with longer homopolymer runs (DNA fragments of contiguous nucleotides or repeating bases) are prone to errors during synthesis, amplification, and sequencing (Ross et al., 2013). For example, in ACCCCAT, the presence of base repeats can easily be misinterpreted during sequencing as sequences such as ACCCAT. Therefore, it is necessary to limit the presence of three or more repeating bases in the DNA sequence. The mathematical formula for this is as follows:
2.2.2 Sequence Fragments
A hidden addressing DNA storage coding scheme encodes the sequence. The procedure is as follows. First, group the data and then segment the data within the group. Each piece of data in the group is subjected to fountain coding XOR to convert each piece of data into a DNA sequence. Finally, the GC content and homopolymer constraints control the constraint filter to select the DNA that meets the constraints. Sequences that satisfy the constraints are retained, and those that do not satisfy the constraints are discarded directly. In this way, several short sequence fragments corresponding to each set of data are connected into a long sequence. The DNA sequence corresponding to each set of data satisfies the local GC content constraint and the homopolymer control constraint, which makes the sequence more stable than the sequence without local constraints control. The stability of the local GC content also ensures better local thermodynamic properties of the sequences. The local thermodynamic properties of the sequence are better, and the homopolymer control also ensures the sequence’s local stability and reduces the probability of errors during sequence sequencing.
2.3 Process and Schematic
The overall schematic of the scheme is shown in Figure 3. It has three parts: file preprocessing, fountain encoding, and DNA fragment selection.
2.3.1 Program-Specific Process
126.96.36.199 File Preprocessing
The binary data are divided into N groups equally according to the size, and then the size of each group of data is divided into n segments. This allows each group of data to be independent of each other and makes it easy to read the data randomly. The segmented data fountain encoding control constraints in each set of data also make the GC content and homopolymer control of the encoding sequence fragments more stable.

First, distribution function Φ (Erlich and Zielinski, 2017) is generated according to the number of groups in the segment, and each time, a linear shift register is used to generate different random seeds. Second, d (where

2.3.2 Scheme Example Diagram
Figure 3 shows a schematic diagram of a DNA storage encoding scheme for the hidden addressing. First, the TXT file is divided into N groups of data, and then each group of data is subjected to fountain coding, and each group generates a corresponding large number of DNA fragments. According to the similarity of the indexes, the DNA fragment sets corresponding to the N groups of data are horizontally compared, and the index DNA fragments of each group of data are selected. At the same time, seven DNA fragments were selected from each set of data and spliced with the selected index DNA fragments. Finally, RS error correction is added at the end of each sequence for the error correction after sequence sequencing.
In this section, based on the scheme of constructing high-efficiency DNA sequences with fountain codes, the hidden addressing scheme of this article is proposed, which is different from steganography, as data blocks are used to replace indexes in this scheme, whereas steganography embeds indexes into the data blocks. In the sorting phase, since the index is technically embedded into the sequence, the index is first solved from the data, and then processed through sorting, sequence assembly, and other operations. In this scheme, the sequencing can directly use the hidden addressing data blocks for sequence sorting, splicing, and other processes. Comparing the two, the process of this scheme is relatively simple and easy to decode. Based on the hidden addressing, it not only ensures that the local thermodynamic properties of the sequence are better but also uses the XOR data to replace the index, which reduces the overall self-similarity of the index and the incidence of sequence errors during splicing.
To verify the performance of the index and sequence fragments of DNA sequences constructed by the hidden addressing DNA storage encoding scheme, this chapter compares and analyzes the Ehrlich and Zelinsky (2017) encoding scheme from two aspects: the overall self-similarity of the index and the constraint control analysis of the encoding sequence fragments by means of comparative experiments. The results show that the encoding experimental results of this scheme are better than Ehrlich and Zelinsky (2017) encoding experimental results. The net information density of the encoding scheme and its support for random access are also important indicators for evaluating the performance of the encoding scheme, which directly determine the scheme implementation cost. These are also compared in this chapter. The results show that the scheme has a high net information density and also has the functions of supporting random reading of files, decoding, and error correction. At the same time, the encoding sequence was also simulate-sequenced using the ART simulated sequencing tool.
3.1 Overall Self-Similarity
The overall index self-similarity of the encoding sequence is one of the important indicators to evaluate the encoding scheme. If the index similarity of the designed sequence is too high, it will lead to splicing errors after sequencing and affect the final decoding accuracy. Similarly, if the sequence similarity of the encoded payload is too high, the decoding accuracy will also be affected (Akhmetov et al., 2018). To verify the overall irrelevance of the sequence index design of the hidden addressing DNA storage encoding scheme, the self-similar visualization generator (Madeira et al., 2019) is used in this study to generate the resulting graph shown in Figure 4 for verification.
FIGURE 4. Self-similarity comparison between encoding indices. (A) Utilize data instead of overall self-similarity between indices. (B) Overall self-similarity between seeds used for splicing sequences in fountain coding experiments.
In Figure 4, the indices of the two storage schemes are used as input, and both use a word length of 10 as the input parameter for dot map generation. The encoding scheme using data-hiding addressing replaces the index with data blocks in the DNA sequence and omits the index from the DNA sequence. As the data are independent of each other, as shown in Figure 4A, there are not too many continuous repeating sequence fragments, indicating that the encoding sequence using the data-hidden addressing in this scheme does not have too many repetitions, which improves the accuracy of decoding. The sequence designed by the Erlich and Zielinski’s (2017) encoding scheme uses a seed as an identifier for sequence splicing. There will be two adjacent representation numbers between a single seed. After converting it into a DNA sequence, the similarity is high, so using the self-similarity visualization generator generates a graph showing that there will be a large number of concentrated and relatively continuous sequences. As shown in Figure 4B, there is a large number of concentrated repeated fragments in the sequence near the diagonal line, indicating that the seed used in this scheme as the sequence index has a large number of repeated short sequences.
In addition to using the Dottup dot plot generator to generate dot plots to visually compare the differences in overall self-similarity of coding scheme indices, the Jaccard similarity coefficient can also effectively calculate the overall similarity of the two encoding scheme index sequences and evaluate the overall self-similarity of encoding scheme indexes. The Jaccard similarity coefficient is a common way to calculate the similarity of two strings: The proportion of the number of elements in the intersection of two sets A and B in the union of A and B is called the Jaccard similarity coefficient of the two sets, and is represented by the symbol
To calculate the Jaccard similarity coefficient for the two DNA sequences, we first transform each sequence into a set of
We compute the Jaccard similarity coefficients indexed in the two encoding schemes. In the two encoding schemes, each index sequence and the other sequences are divided by
The differences of hidden addressing indexes are analyzed through the visual analysis and quantitative analysis. This result shows that the index of the encoding scheme proposed in this study is better than the seed used by the encoding scheme of Ehrlich and Zelinsky (2017).
In addition to the comparative experiments on the overall self-similarity between the encoding scheme sequence indices, the overall experiments on self-similarity were carried out on DNA sequence encoding payloads. As shown in Figure 5, the input of this figure is the sequence of the scheme encoding payload. Using a word length of 12 as a parameter, there is no obvious long-sequence repetition in the figure. The repetition of individual short sequences has little effect on the final sequencing result (Akhmetov et al., 2018).
3.2 Code Fragment Performance Analysis
When reading the DNA storage data, the DNA sequence needs to be sequenced. For example, the sequencing-by-synthesis method is used in sequencing on the Illumina platform. In this process, for the continuously extended sequence fragments, satisfying the local GC content and homopolymer control constraints will make the sequencing fragments more stable, and the more stable sequencing fragments will also improve the sequence accuracy during the sequencing process (Akhmetov et al., 2018). To analyze the performance of sequence fragments in a DNA storage encoding scheme with hidden addressing, a statistical analysis of the GC content in the encoding sequence fragments was performed, as shown in Figure 6.
FIGURE 6. Statistical comparison of partial local GC base content in the two DNA storage systems. (A) This scheme carries out the local GC content control. (B) Fountain coding scheme without the local GC content control.
The scheme first divides the data into groups and segments, and then encodes the data into DNA fragments according to the fountain encoding conversion method. Each generated DNA fragment is added to a constrained screening process, and finally, the encoded DNA fragments are spliced into a nucleotide sequence. As shown in Figure 6A, most sequences can guarantee a GC content of 40%–60%, with a GC content variance of 0.004. It can be seen that the fluctuation range is small, and each fragment can satisfy the GC content balance constraint and the homogeneity polymer control constraint, which ensures that the local thermodynamic properties of the coding sequence are more stable. In the case of encoding the same txt file, the sequences encoded by the fountain encoding scheme in the Ehrlich and Zelinsky (2017) encoding scheme only conduct the overall GC content balance constraint of the sequence but not the local GC content balance constraint. Therefore, the local GC content of most sequences is unevenly distributed, and the variance of GC content is 0.011, which shows that the fluctuation range is large, as shown in Figure 6B. The length of each sequence encoded by the encoding scheme in Figure 6A is 184 bpl, so the GC content of each sequence is calculated as every 23 bases. In the sequences encoded by the encoding scheme in Figure 6B, the length of each sequence is 152 bp, so the GC content of each sequence is calculated as every 19 bases.
3.3 Encoding Performance
By evaluating the general characteristics of the encoding scheme and comparing it with the previous research results, we found that the DNA storage coding scheme with hidden addressing also has a high net information density, supports random access to files, and has error correction properties (Table 2).
In the encoding scheme of DNA storage, the evaluation indicators such as net information density (NID), random access reading support (RA), and support for error correction (EC) are important references for evaluating the encoding scheme. Net information density is also an important evaluation indicator to measure an encoding scheme, and its size directly determines the cost of DNA storage in the synthesis, sequencing, and error correction. Although the net information density is 1.48 nt/bit in this scheme, this scheme realizes the random access function of the DNA storage system. There are eight seeds used for decoding in each sequence so that each group of data is encoded separately to eliminate the integrity of the data in the fountain encoding experiment. Therefore, the redundancy in each sequence accounts for 26%, and the calculation formula is as follows
Implementing random access to files in an encoding scheme is also an important aspect to evaluate the performance of an encoding scheme. In the DNA fountain encoding experiment, there is a disadvantage of losing random readability. For example, if file F1 is required, the DNA sequences of all the stored data in the pool must be read to obtain required file F1. As DNA sequencing can take longer time and cost more than reading data from a hard drive, the encoding scheme designed in this study takes into account random read operation of files in the DNA storage system. Each file corresponds to several sequences with hidden addressing. If one wants to read file F1 from the DNA storage system, one only needs to read the sequence of the hidden addressing data block corresponding to F1 to realize the random reading of the file. This improves the random readability of the fountain encoding scheme devised by Ehrlich and Zelinsky (2017).
3.4 Sequence Decoding
To further validate the DNA encoding scheme using cryptic addressing, we performed relevant simulate sequencing experiments on the encoded data using simulate sequencing tools.
ART is an analog tool for the next-generation sequencing reads (Huang et al., 2012). Simulated sequencing readings are generated by simulating the sequencing process using built-in, technology-specific read error models and baseline value profiles that are empirically parameterized in large sequencing datasets. All three major commercial next-generation sequencing platforms are currently supported: Roche’s 454, Illumina’s Solexa, and Applied Biosystems’ SOLiD. We used ART Illumina simulate sequencing with encoding sequences directly as input, reads were mock single-ended, 150 bp in length, the maximum total number of inserts and deletes per read is set to 0, 20 × coverage, and the Illumina sequencing system profile was MiSeq v1 (250 bp). The results showed that more than 95% of the bases in each sequence were detected by simulated sequencing.
After the N sequences in the pool are measured, the DNA sequence is corrected according to RS error correction. The error-corrected sequence is then fed into the file preprocessing system, which automatically identifies the data used to hide the index. The sequences are then sorted according to the reference ranking table (each encoded data has a reference ranking table, as shown in Supplementary Table S1. In this experiment, due to the large number of sequences, the reference sorting table encoding the 40 KB data is only partially shown in the Supplementary Material; the rest will be shown on Github: https://github.com/wangpenghaoAA/Reference-order). Input the sorted sequence into the decoding program in order. Each sequence is converted to binary according to the conversion rule
In this chapter, the hidden addressing DNA storage encoding scheme proposed in this article was analyzed from the overall self-similarity of the index, the performance of the encoding sequence fragment, the general evaluation index of the encoding scheme, and the related simulated sequencing experiments. The results show that this scheme not only has a lower similarity between the data using hidden addressing but also has better local thermodynamic properties of the coding sequence, support for random reading of files, support for file error correction, higher net information density, and better simulation sorting results.
In this study, a hidden addressing DNA storage encoding scheme was proposed, which is based on the fountain encoding construction of DNA sequences. This encoding scheme uses data-hidden sequence addressing. Using data instead of indexes in this scheme not only saves indexes and reduces costs but also makes it easier to operate than steganography. This study also analyzes the overall self-similarity of coding sequence indices through the Jaccard similarity coefficient and the Dottup dot plot generator. The index of this scheme is replaced by data, and the data are independent of each other and have low correlation. Therefore, the index replaced by the independent data will reduce the overall self-similarity of the index, and the encoding scheme with lower overall self-similarity of the index will help to avoid splicing errors. At the same time, this study also analyzed the GC content of the coding sequence fragments. The data were first grouped; each group was segmented; and finally, they were encoded into a scheme of DNA sequences. The GC content and homopolymer control constraints were satisfied when encoding each data fragment. Therefore, the local thermodynamic properties of the sequences were better, which increased the local stability of the sequences. Finally, we also compared the general evaluation indicators of the encoded data and performed related simulated sequencing experiments. The results showed that the proposed DNA storage scheme has the advantages of higher net information density, support for random access, support for error correction, and better sequencing results.
Current DNA storage and error correction schemes are fault-tolerant to synthesis and sequencing errors, and even the loss of complete sequences. If the encoding and error correction strategies can be further optimized, DNA-based storage can be implemented using low-cost and low-fidelity technology (Cai et al., 2021). In our future work, we will continue to work on DNA storage with a focus on DNA coding technology and DNA sequencing technology. We believe that there is a lot of room for improvement in this developmental path. A large amount of work has been done, such as a comprehensive evaluation of DNA storage error models. The future of synthetic DNA storage systems remains bright and could have profound implications for areas such as global data management and healthcare. With the joint efforts of academia and industry, there will be many ways to build low-cost and practical DNA storage schemes in the future.

The Metroplex can anticipate warmer temperatures this week and a possible storm system.
Starting Monday, the system will bring increased rain and storm chances, said Allison Prater, National Weather Service meteorologist.
There is a cap in place, and the severity of the possible storms is uncertain. If the cap breaks, the chance for severe storms increases, she said.
A cap is a layer of relatively warm air that suppresses or delays the development of thunderstorms, according to the National Weather Service.
Sunday evening lows will be in the upper 60s to low 70s, and tomorrow, temperatures are expected to be in the lower 90s.
Tuesday is predicted to be cooler following the storm system, with lows expected to be in the low to mid-60s.
Wednesday’s high temperatures are expected to be in the upper 70s and Thursday’s will be in the 80s. The weekend is predicted to be in the low to upper 80s, she said.
Prater advises continuing to drink water and taking warm weather precautions in order to prepare for summer weather.
“If you’re going to be out for long periods of time, sunscreen would be recommended,” she said.

A pressure switch is used to monitor changes in system pressure and turn on and off a water pump. A pressure switch detects when a predetermined pressure point is reached and opens or shuts an electrical switching element.
Air compressor pumps may also be controlled via switches. As a result, they are extensively used in various industrial applications to form or break electrical circuits at specific pressures or to power other devices such as alarms.
All pressure switches have the same cut-in and cut-out points. The cu-in point, known as the reset point, is activated by decreasing pressure and causes the pump to start. The cut-out point, known as the trip point, is activated by rising pressure and shuts off the pump.
Increase the cut-in and cut-out pressure by turning the large spring’s nut clockwise. Turn the nut counterclockwise to reduce the cut-in and cut-out pressure levels.
For precision and maximum switch life, the cut-in and cut-out set points should be in the centre of the working pressure range.
The differential, also known as the dead-band, is the difference or spread between the cut-in and cut-out positions. Most switches allow you to alter the difference between the cut-in and cut-out; however, other switches have fixed, non-adjustable differentials. For example, some applications need a larger or smaller gap between the pump-on and pump-off set-points. To make changes, turn the small spring’s nut clockwise to raise just the cut-out pressure. Counterclockwise rotation merely lowers the cut-out pressure.

Astronomers using the National Science Foundation’s Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) have discovered a fast-moving jet of material propelled outward from a type of neutron star previously thought incapable of launching such a jet. The discovery, the scientists said, requires them to fundamentally revise their ideas about how such jets originate.
Neutron stars are superdense objects, the remnants of massive stars that exploded as supernovas. When in binary pairs with “normal” stars, their powerful gravity can pull material away from their companions. That material forms a disk, called an accretion disk, rotating around the neutron star. Jets of material are propelled at nearly the speed of light, perpendicular to the disk.
“We’ve seen jets coming from all types of neutron stars that are pulling material from their companions, with a single exception. Never before have we seen a jet coming from a neutron star with a very strong magnetic field,” said Jakob van den Eijnden of the University of Amsterdam. “That led to a theory that strong magnetic fields prevent jets from forming,” he added.
The new discovery contradicts that theory.
The scientists studied an object called Swift J0243.6+6124 (Sw J0243), discovered on October 3, 2017, by NASA’s orbiting Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory, when the object emitted a burst of X-rays. The object is a slowly-spinning neutron star pulling material from a companion star that is likely significantly more massive than the Sun. The VLA observations began a week after the Swift discovery and continued until January 2018.
Both the fact that the object’s emission at X-ray and radio wavelengths weakened together over time and the characteristics of the radio emission itself convinced the astronomers that they were seeing radio waves produced by a jet.
“This combination is what we see in other jet-producing systems. Alternative mechanisms just don’t explain it,” van den Eijnden said.
Common theories for jet formation in systems like Sw J0243 say the jets are launched by magnetic field lines anchored in the inner parts of the accretion disks. In this scenario, if the neutron star has a very strong magnetic field, that field is overpowering and prevents the jet from forming.
“Our clear discovery of a jet in Sw J0243 disproves that longstanding idea,” van den Eijnden said.
Alternatively, the scientists suggest that Sw J0243’s jet-launching region of the accretion disk could be much farther out than in other types of systems, where the star’s magnetic field is weaker. Another idea, they said, is that the jets may be powered by the neutron star’s rotation, instead of being launched by magnetic field lines in the inner accretion disk.
“Interestingly, the rotation-powered idea predicts that the jet will be significantly weaker from more slowly rotating neutron stars, which is exactly what we see in Sw J0243,” Nathalie Degenaar, also of the University of Amsterdam, said.
The new discovery also implies that Sw J0243 may represent a large group of objects whose radio emission has been too weak to detect until new capabilities provided by the VLA’s major upgrade, completed in 2012, were available. If more such objects are found, the scientists said, they could test the idea that jets are produced by the neutron star’s spin.
The astronomers added that a jet from SwJ0243 may mean that another category of objects, called ultra-luminous X-ray pulsars, also highly magnetized, might produce jets.
“This discovery not only means we have to revise our ideas about jets from such systems, but also opens up exciting new areas of research,” Degenaar said.
Van den Eijnden, Degenaar, and their colleagues are reporting their discovery in the journal Nature.

Solar photocatalytic degradation of chlorophenols mixture (4-CP and 2,4-DCP): Mechanism and kinetic modelling
MetadataShow full item record
The solar-photocatalytic degradation mechanisms and kinetics of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) and 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) using TiO2 have been investigated both individually and combined. The individual solar-photocatalytic degradation of both phenolic compounds showed that the reaction rates follow pseudo–first-order reaction. During the individual photocatalytic degradation of both 4-CP and 2,4-DCP under the same condition of TiO2 (0.5 g L¡1) and light intensities (1000 mW cm-2) different intermediates were detected, three compounds associated with 4-CP (hydroquinone (HQ), phenol (Ph) and 4-chlorocatechol (4-cCat)) and two compounds associated with 2,4-DCP (4-CP and Ph). The photocatalytic degradation of the combined mixture (4-CP and 2,4-DCP) was also investigated at the same conditions and different 2,4-DCP initial concentrations. The results showed that the degradation rate of 4-CP decreases when the 2,4-DCP concentration increases. Furthermore, the intermediates detected were similar to that found in the individual degradation but with high Ph concentration. Therefore, a possible reaction mechanism for degradation of this combined mixture was proposed. Moreover, a modified Langmuir–Hinshelwood (L-H) kinetic model considering all detected intermediates was developed. A good agreement between experimental and estimated results was achieved. This model can be useful for scaling-up purposes more accurately as its considering the intermediates formed, which has a significant effect on degrading the main pollutants (4-CP and 2,4-DCP).

What is Lap Length?
The lap length is the length provided to overlap two rebars in order to safely transfer load from one bar to another bar and an alternative to this is to provide mechanical couplers. It is also known as lap splices.
Why it is provided?
Suppose we need to construct the building of 30-meter height but there is no 30-meter single bar available in the market. The maximum length of Steel bar available in the market is usually 12 meters.
It is because of the transportation problem and manufacturing difficulty so we need to join three bars of 12 metres to get 30 metres bar.
What will happen if we don’t provide lap length?
If we don’t provide lap length then the load transfer mechanism will fail which eventually leads to failure of structure also if we provide less lap length than the required then the reinforcement bar split and Crack can be developed in the concrete.
How to calculate lap length?
When the beam is subjected to forces in a building the bottom portion of the beam experiences tension and the top portion of the beam experiences compression so, first we will discuss about tension zone.
In, tension zone, there are two cases
- one flexural tension
- direct tension
According to IS 456: 2000
For flexural tension, the lap length shall be Ld that is development length, or 30d whichever is greater is considered. Where d is the diameter of the bar. Generally, the development length is 41d where d is the diameter of the bar.
For direct tension, the lap length should be 2 Ld or 30d whichever is greater is considered. In this case, the straight length of the lapping bar shall not be less than 15d or 20cm.
In the case of compression, the lap length is equal to the development length calculated in compression but not less than 24d.
What are the general rules for lap length?
For the different diameters of bars
When the bars of different diameters are to be spliced the lap length is calculated considering the smaller diameter bars.
Suppose you are constructing a column, from bottom 20 mm diameter bar is coming and from here 16 mm diameter bar has to be spliced then for calculating lap length 16 mm diameter should be considered and not 20 mm.
If the diameter of the bar is more than 36 mm then lapping should not be done instead of lapping, this bar should be welded.
But when welding is not possible then lapping can be permitted for bars larger than 36 mm but in this case, additional spirals shall be provided around the lapped bar.
Lapping should be done in a staggered manner. These laps should not be given at the same level to avoid buckling. The stirrup shall be closely spaced in the lapping portion.
It’s because when we provide lapping in concrete members the strength of the member slightly reduces. Hence, we need to provide more numbers of stirrups in this portion.
In the case of bundled bars, lap splices of bundle bars shall be made by splicing one bar at a time. Such individual splices within a bundle shall be staggered.
In this image you can see some amount of rebar is left for future construction with extra rebar will be needed for tying bars of the column. This extra length of rebar is also called lap length.
Lapping Zone For Column
This is the column. L is the length of the column. In the case of the column, the tension zone is located at an L/4 distance from both ends of the column. This zone experiences tension so here we should not provide lapping.
The bending moment at the middle portion of the column is zero it means the middle portion of the column is least stressed. Hence, lapping should be provided in the mid-section of the column so that transfer of stresses from bar to bar happens smoothly in this region.
Lapping Zone For Beam
Whereas in the case of the beam as I already explained before the top portion of the beam experiences compression and the bottom portion experiences tension.
So, the top reinforcement in the beam is left at the midspan. As the beam does not experience any negative moment at midspan so lapping is great in this region.
In the case of bottom reinforcement, the lapping is provided near the ends of the beam or L/4 distance from column face but should not be in the midpoint of the beam, and one last point The lapping should not be provided at joints.
Lapping Zone for Slab
For bottom reinforcement, laps are provided L/5 to L/3 distance from the support. ( L = effective span)
For top reinforcement, no lap is required since they are generally short. Although In no case, the lapped bars should not exceed one-third of the total bars.
In the two-way slab, the same practice as mentioned above should be followed for both directions.
If an end-to-end distance between the lap is the least, then the lap should be provided in a staggered manner. ( lap length +75 mm)
Generally, the lap length provided for the slab is 60d, column 45d, and the beam is 60d for the M20 grade of concrete.
What is the lap length?
It is the length provided to overlap two rebars in order to safely transfer load from one bar to another bar and the alternative to this is, to provide mechanical couplers.
What is the minimum lap length?
For direct tension, the straight length of the lapping bar shall not be less than 15d or 20 cm. While in the case of compression lapping should not be less than 24d.
What is the difference between lap length and development length?
Lap length is provided to safely transfer stresses from one bar to another, while development is needed to safely transfer the stresses from steel bar to concrete to make a continuous structure.
Where lap length is provided in the column?
The bending moment at the middle portion of the column is zero it means the middle portion of the column is least stressed. Hence, lapping should be provided in the mid-section of the column.
I hope now you understood the concept of Lap Length. If you find this article helpful please don’t forget to share it.
If you want to add any information which I have missed in this article you can mention it in the comment section.
Finally thanks! for reading the article.

It didn't take me long after 'Highlander' to see that director Russell Mulcahy had struck lucky in creating one of my favourite movies of all time. I've really not been a fan of his, so watching 'On The Beach' was a bit of a strange experience. Thankfully, it was filled with just enough originality and reasons to be liked for me to go the distance with it! Firstly, and most importantly to those looking for a thrill, this is not your movie. It's entirely character driven with a smattering of symbolism and it might be a bit too emotional for the action movie crowd. It's a show with an anti-nuclear message.
That being said, Mulcahy did infinitely more with $10 million than 'Blair Witch Project' did with $15 million in the same year and much of that comes down to the efforts and chemistry of the cast. That is a testament to the effort put into this production, though, as you really have to wonder; random camcorders and camping in the woods cost $5 million more than a submarine, a cast of international actors and a soundtrack? How? Moving on, I've never seen Armand Assante take the lead and now I'm looking to see what of his I can watch next. He was captivating from start to finish, taking up his character's mantle as though he'd been in the navy all his life. As for more tender and emotional scenes, it's quite endearing to watch such a gruff and edgy man portray all that he did. He carries much of the movie, but sometimes it's rushed outcome overshadows him.
Bryan Brown suffers an impatient or rushed cinematographer, not to mention a script that needed reigning in, whereas Rachel Ward and Grant Bowler came across as very natural and understated until it really counts.
As for any action, unfortunately it's the edgier scenes that Mulcahy was better known for that he consistently failed at. It really made me wonder what happened to him as a director because how could he mature as a dramatic director and then becomes so bad at what made him famous? All faults aside (including some horrendous editing), it's still a good effort and after all is said and done, if this TV movie and its culminating scenes don't blow your mind and leave you chilled to the bone, then I fear for the future. I think you have to want the message in order to want the film in this case!

In this Nature Communications article we uncover a function for the Bloom RecQ DNA helicase (BLM) in TC-DSBR in human cells. BLM is recruited in a transcription dependent-manner at DSBs where it fosters resection, RAD51 binding and accurate Homologous Recombination repair. However, in an R-loop dissolution-deficient background, we find that BLM promotes cell death. We report that upon excessive RNA:DNA hybrid accumulation, DNA synthesis is enhanced at DSBs, in a manner that depends on BLM and POLD3. Altogether our work unveils a role for BLM at DSBs in active chromatin, and highlights the toxic potential of RNA:DNA hybrids that accumulate at transcription-associated DSBs.
This review article in DNA repair discusses about recent work regarding DSBs occurring in transcribed loci. It provides an updated view of the “Transcription-Coupled DSB Repair” (TC-DSBR) pathway(s) that are mounted at DSBs occurring in loci transcribed by RNA Polymerase I (RNAPI) or RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII), highlighting differences and common features, as well as yet unanswered questions.
This review article in Nature Cell Biology discusses about the formation and function of R-loops that accumulate in cis to DSBs, especially those induced in transcriptionally active loci. Whether R-loops actively participate in DSB repair or are detrimental by-products that must be removed to avoid genome instability is also addressed.
This article in Nature shows that topologically associating domains are functional units of the DNA damage response, and are instrumental for the correct establishment of γH2AX–53BP1 chromatin domains in a manner that involves one-sided cohesin-mediated loop extrusion on both sides of the DSB. We propose a model in which H2AX-containing nucleosomes are rapidly phosphorylated as they actively pass by DSB-anchored cohesin. Our work highlights the importance of chromosome conformation in the maintenance of genome integrity and demonstrates the establishment of a chromatin modification by loop extrusion.
Analyzing Homologous Recombination at a Genome-Wide Level
This chapter is part of the Methods in Molecular Biology book chapter on Homologous recombination.
It present our method to perform the genome-wide mapping of Rad51 by ChIP-seq in the DIvA cell system, where multiple DSBs can be induced in a controlled manner by the AsiSI restriction enzyme. Importantly this method can also be implemented using either alternative ways to induce annotated DSBs (I-PpoI, CRISPR/Cas9) or using chemical agents that produce DSB in a non-random manner across the genome (such as etoposide).
BLM-dependent Break-Induced Replication handles DSBs in transcribed chromatin upon impaired RNA:DNA hybrids dissolution
This manuscript was added on bioRxiv.
It shows a critical function of the Bloom RecQ DNA helicase (BLM) in transcription-coupled DSB repair (TC-DSBR) in human cells. By being recruited in a transcription-dependent manner, BLM fosters resection at damaged active genes, promotes RAD51 binding and is thus required Homologous Recombination repair. Yet in a context where R-loops are not removed, BLM switches from promoting Homologous Recombination to promoting Break-Induced Replication (BIR). This pathway switch strongly impairs cell viability. Altogether we uncover a novel role for BLM in BIR at DSBs in active chromatin, and highlights the toxic potential of RNA:DNA hybrids at transcription-associated DSBs.
Studying DNA Double-Strand Break Repair: An Ever-Growing Toolbox
This review in Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences written in collaboration with Pablo Huertas and Sérgio Fernandes de Almeida discusses our current knowledge of the molecular determinants and mechanistic details of the DDR. This review essentially focuses on the development of ground-breaking experimental tools which help improving our understanding of the DDR. This review also addresses the pros and cons of each technique that is currently used to induce DSB, and analyse the DDR.
m6A RNA modification as a new player in R-loop regulation
This News and Views in Nature Genetics discusses a new study that shows that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification on the RNA moieties regulates the formation and genome integrity of these hybrids. This finding opens a new avenue of research on how RNA modifications (the ‘epitranscriptome’) can help control genome maintenance.
The Secret Life of Chromosome Loops upon DNA Double-Strand Break
This review in the Journal of Molecular Biology is on the impact of DSB on chromatin composition and chromosome architecture. Our knowledge on the topic is very sparse despite the recent development of various tools to induce DSB at annotated loci, compatible with next-generation sequencing-based approaches. In this review, we discuss the influence of initial and DSB-induced chromatin conformation and the strong potential of 3C-based technologies to decipher the contribution of chromosome architecture during DSB repair.
A cohesin/HUSH- and LINC-dependent pathway controls ribosomal DNA double-strand break repair
This article in Genes and Developement explains how a particularly unstable locus of our genome, the ribosomal DNA (rDNA), is repaired. DSBs within the rDNA locus induce both rDNA transcriptional repression and nucleolar segregation, but the link between the two events remains unclear. Here we found that DSBs induced on rDNA trigger transcriptional repression in a cohesin- and HUSH (human silencing hub) complex-dependent manner throughout the cell cycle. In S/G2 cells, transcriptional repression is further followed by extended resection within the interior of the nucleolus, DSB mobilization at the nucleolar periphery within nucleolar caps, and repair by homologous recombination. We showed that nuclear envelope invaginations frequently connect the nucleolus and that rDNA DSB mobilization, but not transcriptional repression, involves the nuclear envelope-associated LINC complex and the actin pathway.
Non-canonical DNA/RNA structures during Transcription-Coupled Double-Strand Break Repair: Roadblocks or Bona fide repair intermediates?
This review in DNA repair was written in collaboration with Kyle Miller and discusses about nucleic acid structures in DNA repair. It is now well understood that DNA does not systematically assemble into a canonical double helix but can also accommodate other structures including DNA hairpins, G-quadruplexes and RNA:DNA hybrids. Notably, these non-canonical DNA structures form preferentially at transcriptionally active loci. Acting as replication roadblocks and being targeted by multiple machineries, these structures weaken the genome and render it prone to damage, including DSB. In addition, secondary structures also further accumulate upon DSB formation. Here we discuss the potential functions of pre-existing or de novo formed nucleic acid structures, as bona fide repair intermediates or repair roadblocks, especially during Transcription-Coupled DNA Double-Strand Break repair (TC-DSBR).
A Snapshot on the Cis Chromatin Response to DNA Double-Strand Breaks.
This review in Trends in Genetics talks about the chromatin alteration observed at various scales around DSBs, in a manner that relates to the repair pathway used, hence defining a 'repair histone code'. The recent advances regarding our knowledge of the chromatin landscape induced in cis around DSBs, with an emphasis on histone post-translational modifications and histone variants are being disccused.
Genome editing in primary cells and in vivo using viral-derived
Nanoblades loaded with Cas9-sgRNA ribonucleoproteins
Emiliano Ricci's team engineered murine leukemia virus-like particles loaded with Cas9-sgRNA ribonucleoproteins (Nanoblades) to induce efficient genome-editing in cell lines and primary cells including human induced pluripotent stem cells, human hematopoietic stem cells and mouse bone-marrow cells. Nanoblades preparation process is simple, relatively inexpensive and can be easily implemented in any laboratory equipped for cellular biology.
In this Molecular Cell paper, we provide the most comprehensive picture of the chromatin landscape set up at DSBs and identify NHEJ- and HR-specific chromatin events. This study revealed the existence of a DSB-induced monoubiquitination-to-acetylation switch on histone H2B lysine 120, likely mediated by the SAGA complex, as well as higher-order signaling at HR-repaired DSBs whereby histone H1 is evicted while ubiquitin and 53BP1 accumulate over the entire γH2AX domains.
In this Nature communication paper, we report that senataxin is recruited at DSB when they occur in transcriptionally active loci. Genome-wide mapping unveiled that RNA:DNA hybrids accumulate on DSB-flanking chromatin but display a narrow, DSB-induced, depletion near DNA ends coinciding with senataxin binding. Although neither required for resection nor for timely repair of DSBs, senataxin was found to promote Rad51 recruitment, to minimize illegitimate rejoining of distant DNA ends and to sustain cell viability following DSB production in active genes. Our data suggest that senataxin functions at DSBs in order to limit translocations and ensure cell viability, providing new insights on AOA2/ALS4 neuropathies
Dipanjan Chowdhury's team identified DYNLL1 as an inhibitor of DNA end resection. The loss of DYNLL1 enables DNA end resection and restores homologous recombination in BRCA1-mutant cells, thereby inducing resistance to platinum drugs and inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. In cells, DYNLL1 limits nucleolytic degradation of DNA ends by associating with the DNA end-resection machinery. In vitro, DYNLL1 binds directly to MRE11 to limit its end-resection activity. Therefore, they infer that DYNLL1 is an important anti-resection factor that influences genomic stability and responses to DNA-damaging chemotherapy.
Raphaël Mourad devised a computational approach to predict DSBs using the epigenomic and chromatin context, for which public data are readily available from the ENCODE project. They achieved excellent prediction accuracy at high resolution. They identify chromatin accessibility, activity, and long-range contacts as the best predictors
This review article in Nucleus discusses of the mechanisms that could sustain clustering. Translocations are dramatic genomic rearrangements due to aberrant rejoining of distant DNA ends that can trigger cancer onset and progression. Translocations frequently occur in genes, yet the mechanisms underlying their formation remain poorly understood. One potential mechanism involves DNA Double Strand Break mobility and juxtaposition (i.e. clustering), an event that has been intensively debated over the past decade. Using Capture Hi-C, we recently found that DSBs do in fact cluster in human nuclei but only when induced in transcriptionally active genes. Notably, we found that clustering of damaged genes is regulated by cell cycle progression and coincides with damage persistency.
This review in DNA repair is on the ATM protein which has been known for decades as the main kinase mediating the DNA Double-Strand Break Response (DDR). Extensive studies have revealed its dual role in locally promoting detection and repair of DSBs as well as in activating global DNA damage checkpoints. However, recent studies pinpoint additional unanticipated functions for ATM in modifying both the local chromatin landscape and the global chromosome organization, more particularly at persistent breaks. Given the emergence of a novel and unexpected class of DSBs prevalently arising in transcriptionally active genes and intrinsically difficult to repair, a specific role of ATM at refractory DSBs could be an important and so far overlooked feature of Ataxia Telangiectasia (A-T) a severe disorder associated with ATM mutations.
This review in the Journal of Molecular Biology is about the current understanding of the crosstalk between transcription and double-strand break repair, from the reasons underlying the intrinsic fragility of genes to the mechanisms that restore the integrity of damaged transcription units.
In this NSMB paper, we used a high-throughput chromosome conformation capture assay (capture Hi-C) to investigate clustering of DSBs induced at defined loci in the human genome. The results unambiguously demonstrated that DSBs cluster, but only when they are induced within transcriptionally active genes. Clustering of damaged genes occurs primarily during the G1 cell-cycle phase and coincides with delayed repair. Moreover, DSB clustering depends on the MRN complex as well as the Formin 2 (FMN2) nuclear actin organizer and the linker of nuclear and cytoplasmic skeleton (LINC) complex, thus suggesting that active mechanisms promote clustering. This work reveals that, when damaged, active genes, compared with the rest of the genome, exhibit a distinctive behavior, remaining largely unrepaired and clustered in G1, and being repaired via homologous recombination in postreplicative cells.
This review in current Opinion in Cell Biology focuses on DSB movement. In the past decade, large-scale movements of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) have repeatedly been identified following DNA damage. These mobility events include clustering, anchoring or peripheral movement at subnuclear structures. Recent work suggests roles for motion in homology search and in break sequestration to preclude deleterious outcomes. Yet, the precise functions of these movements still remain relatively obscure, and the same holds true for the determinants. Here we review recent advances in this exciting area of research, and highlight that a recurrent characteristic of mobile DSBs may lie in their inability to undergo rapid repair. A major future challenge remains to understand how DSB mobility impacts on genome integrity.
Kyle Miller's team reports the identification of the histone demethylase KDM5A as a key regulator of the bromodomain protein ZMYND8 and NuRD (nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylation) complex in the DNA damage response. They observe KDM5A-dependent H3K4me3 demethylation within chromatin near DNA double-strand break (DSB) sites. Mechanistically, demethylation of H3K4me3 is required for ZMYND8-NuRD binding to chromatin and recruitment to DNA damage. Functionally, KDM5A deficiency results in impaired transcriptional silencing and repair of DSBs by homologous recombination. Thus, this study identifies a crucial function for KDM5A in demethylating H3K4 to allow ZMYND8-NuRD to operate within damaged chromatin to repair DSBs.
This review in Molecular & Cellular Oncology describes the roles of Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) at the sites of breaks and its ability to modify both the local chromatin landscape and the global chromosome organization in order to promote repair accuracy.
Jacques Côté's team focusses on the NuA4/TIP60 acetyltransferase complex which is a key regulator of genome expression and stability. Here they identified MBTD1 as a stable subunit of the complex, and we reveal that, via a histone reader domain for H4K20me1/2, MBTD1 allows TIP60 to associate with specific gene promoters and to promote the repair of DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination. It was previously suggested that TIP60-dependent acetylation of H4 regulates binding of the non-homologous end joining factor 53BP1, which engages chromatin through simultaneous binding of H4K20me2 and H2AK15ub. They found that the TIP60 complex regulates association of 53BP1 partly by competing for H4K20me2 and by regulating H2AK15ub. Ubiquitylation of H2AK15 by RNF168 inhibits chromatin acetylation by TIP60, while this residue can be acetylated by TIP60 in vivo, blocking its ubiquitylation. Altogether, these results uncover an intricate mechanism orchestrated by the TIP60 complex to regulate 53BP1-dependent repair through competitive bivalent binding and modification of chromatin.
In this article in Cell Reports, we used the DIvA system (DSB inducible via AsiSI) combined with high-resolution mapping and advanced microscopy to uncovered that both ATM and DNA-PKcs spread in cis on a confined region surrounding DSBs, independently of the pathway used for repair. However, once recruited, these kinases exhibit non-overlapping functions on end joining and γH2AX domain establishment. More specifically, we found that ATM is required to ensure the association of multiple DSBs within "repair foci." Our results suggest that ATM acts not only on chromatin marks but also on higher-order chromatin organization to ensure repair accuracy and survival.
Olivier Sordet's team used camptothecin (CPT)-treated serum-starved quiescent cells to induce transcription-blocking Top1cc and show that those DSBs are generated during Top1cc repair from Top1 peptide-linked DNA single-strand breaks generated after Top1 proteolysis and before excision by TDP1. Following DSB induction, ATM activates DNA-PK whose inhibition suppresses H2AX and H2A ubiquitination and the later assembly of activated ATM into nuclear foci. Inhibition of DNA-PK also reduces Top1 ubiquitination and proteolysis as well as resumption of RNA synthesis suggesting that DSB signaling further enhances Top1cc repair. Finally, they show that co-transcriptional DSBs kill quiescent cells. Together, these new findings reveal that DSB production and signaling by transcription-blocking Top1 lesions impact on non-replicating cell fate and provide insights on the molecular pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases such as SCAN1 and AT syndromes, which are caused by TDP1 and ATM deficiency, respectively.
Kyle Miller's team reports that human bromodomain (BRD)-containing proteins, the primary "readers" of acetylated chromatin, are vital for the DNA damage response (DDR). We discovered that more than one-third of all human BRD proteins change localization in response to DNA damage. We identified ZMYND8 (zinc finger and MYND [myeloid, Nervy, and DEAF-1] domain containing 8) as a novel DDR factor that recruits the nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylation (NuRD) complex to damaged chromatin. Our data define a transcription-associated DDR pathway mediated by ZMYND8 and the NuRD complex that targets DNA damage, including when it occurs within transcriptionally active chromatin, to repress transcription and promote repair by homologous recombination. Thus, our data identify human BRD proteins as key chromatin modulators of the DDR and provide novel insights into how DNA damage within actively transcribed regions requires chromatin-binding proteins to orchestrate the appropriate response in concordance with the damage-associated chromatin context.
In this Nature Structural and Molecular Biology paper, we show that transcriptionally active chromatin is preferentially repaired by HR. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) to analyze repair of multiple DSBs induced throughout the human genome, we identify an HR-prone subset of DSBs that recruit the HR protein RAD51, undergo resection and rely on RAD51 for efficient repair. These DSBs are located in actively transcribed genes and are targeted to HR repair via the transcription elongation-associated mark trimethylated histone H3 K36. Concordantly, depletion of SETD2, the main H3 K36 trimethyltransferase, severely impedes HR at such DSBs. Our study thereby demonstrates a primary role in DSB repair of the chromatin context in which a break occurs.
In Collaboration with Didier Trouche's team we describe a protocol for quantifying endonuclease-induced DSBs; this quantification is essential to an interpretation of how DSBs are managed and repaired. A biotinylated double-stranded oligonucleotide is ligated to enzyme-cleaved genomic DNA, allowing the purification of the cleaved DNA on streptavidin beads. The extent of cleavage is then quantified either by quantitative PCR (qPCR) at a given site or at multiple sites by genome-wide techniques (e.g., microarrays or high-throughput sequencing). This technique, named ligation-mediated purification, can be performed in 2 d. It is more accurate and sensitive than existing alternative methods, and it is compatible with genome-wide analysis. It allows the amount of endonuclease-mediated breaks to be precisely compared between two conditions or across the genome, thereby giving insight into the influence of a given factor or of various chromatin contexts on local repair parameters.
Tanyal Paull's team developped a novel method to quantitatively measure single-stranded DNA intermediates in human cells and find that the 5' strand at endonuclease-generated break sites is resected up to 3.5 kb in a cell cycle-dependent manner. Depletion of CtIP, Mre11, Exo1 or SOSS1 blocks resection, while depletion of 53BP1, Ku or DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit leads to increased resection as measured by this method. While 53BP1 negatively regulates DNA end processing, depletion of Brca1 does not, suggesting that the role of Brca1 in HR is primarily to promote Rad51 filament formation, not to regulate end resection.
Jim Haber's team describe Mec1- and Tel1-dependent phosphorylation of histone H2B at T129 in yeast. γ-H2B formation is impaired by γ-H2AX and its binding partner Rad9. High-density microarray analyses show similar γ-H2AX and γ-H2B distributions, but γ-H2B is absent near telomeres. Both γ-H2AX and γ-H2B are strongly diminished over highly transcribed regions. When transcription of GAL7, GAL10 and GAL1 genes is turned off, γ-H2AX is restored within 5 min, in a Mec1-dependent manner; after reinduction of these genes, γ-H2AX is rapidly lost. Moreover, when a DSB is induced near CEN2, γ-H2AX spreads to all other pericentromeric regions, again depending on Mec1. Our data provide new insights in the function and establishment of phosphorylation events occurring on chromatin after DSB induction
Tim Humphrey's team describe a role for H3K36 trimethylation in homologous recombination (HR) repair in human cells is defined. They found that depleting SETD2 generates a mutation signature resembling RAD51 depletion at I-SceI-induced DNA double-strand break (DSB) sites, with significantly increased deletions arising through microhomology-mediated end-joining. They established a presynaptic role for SETD2 methyltransferase in HR, where it facilitates the recruitment of C-terminal binding protein interacting protein (CtIP) and promotes DSB resection, allowing Replication Protein A (RPA) and RAD51 binding to DNA damage sites. Furthermore, reducing H3K36me3 levels by overexpressing KDM4A/JMJD2A, an oncogene and H3K36me3/2 demethylase, or an H3.3K36M transgene also reduces HR repair events. They propose that error-free HR repair within H3K36me3-decorated transcriptionally active genomic regions promotes cell homeostasis. Moreover, these findings provide insights as to why oncogenic mutations cluster within the H3K36me3 axis

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — The 11th-ranked Notre Dame Fighting Irish used a big second-half comeback to topple the third-ranked North Carolina Tar Heels 11-10 at Fetzer Field on Saturday.
While North Carolina attackman Jimmy Bitter tallied a hat trick, Notre Dame’s Matt Kavanagh matched him with one of his own while rallying his team from a five-goal deficit to hand the Tar Heels their first loss of the season.
The matchup was the 12th overall between the two teams, but the first as Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) opponents. It mimicked their overtime tilt last season, another one-goal thriller that the Irish won 10-9.
With R.G. Keenan still not playing for North Carolina because of a lower body injury suffered in practice a few weeks ago, the Kelly brothers, Frankie and Stephen, had to contend with Notre Dame’s Liam O’Connor at face-off X.
The Fighting Irish draw man dominated the Tar Heels’ tandem, winning 16 of 23 face-offs he took and put the ball in Notre Dame’s crosses throughout the game.
Notre Dame goalie tandem Though winning possession, it took Notre Dame 30 minutes to penetrate through a tight Tar Heels defense led by goalkeeper Kieran Burke, who finished with 10 saves for North Carolina while suffering his first loss of the season.
While North Carolina (3-1) led 7-3 at halftime powered on the effort of six different scorers, Notre Dame (2-1) put two keepers in front of them with starter Connor Kelly platooning with Shane Doss.
With Kelly unable to make any stops during the first quarter and with his team trailing 5-1, Notre Dame coach Kevin Corrigan opted to replace him with Doss.
The move paid off as the backup keeper made four saves during the second quarter, while the Fighting Irish managed to stay even with the Tar Heels on the scoreboard during that 15-minute segment.
“The message was don’t panic,” Corrigan said of what he told his team in the locker room. “I think in the emotion of a game you get caught up sometimes and watch the scoreboard. If you watch that game, I don’t think the quality of play was very different between the two teams in the first half, outside of the goal. They got some saves and we didn’t. I thought we were getting what we wanted offensively. We just weren’t putting them away and taking advantage. Defensively, we were giving up some of the things we wanted to give up, but we weren’t getting saves. So our message was don’t panic, just stay the course. We’re going to be OK.”
An Irish push Bitter was joined by Pat Foster (2G), Chad Tutton (1G, 1A), Jake Matthai (1G), Shane Simpson (1G), Luke Goldstock (1G) and Joey Sankey (1G) with scoring for Carolina.
“We had a really strong start,” Bitter said. “We were all excited for the game because last year we had a tough loss. We were up 7-3 at halftime, and we knew they were going to come in the third quarter playing really hard and come for us. We knew they were going to make a surge. Our plan was to keep playing how we were playing, but we kind of lost our energy in the third quarter and in the fourth quarter. We knew exactly what they were going to do and expecting them to play (that way). We just didn’t execute towards the end of the game and second half of the game.”
Joey Sankey scored his lone goal of the game at 13:49 of the third quarter to put the Tar Heels in firm control and leading 8-3. For the next 15 minutes and into the early part of the final quarter of play, Kavanagh along with Tyler Brenneman (1G), Sergio Perkovic (2G) and Jim Marlatt (1G) put together a 5-0 run that tied the game 8-8 with 14:31 to play.
Finishing the game scoring on four of seven EMOs, the Fighting Irish maximized upon a two-man up situation that showed North Carolina’s first lapse in defensive and mental focus late in the third quarter.
Mistakes for UNC “We had our opportunities, but I thought it started to slip at the end of the third quarter,” North Carolina coach Joe Breschi said.
“We had multiple penalties called. We had four penalties called in the third quarter which changed the complexity of the game. Anytime you give up four man-down goals, it’s disappointing and changes the game.”
While Bitter gave the Tar Heels the lead back at 13:09, Notre Dame’s ball possession off the draw and offensive surge continued with goals from Conor Doyle and Jack Near that gave the Irish a two-goal cushion with which to rest on until the end of the game.
Bitter added his final goal of the game with 3:51 to play, but it wasn’t enough. Notre Dame had swung the entire momentum of the game in its favor and left the North Carolina defense too tired to effectively clear the ball on three separate occasions as both teams battled with a one-goal margin between them until the final horn.
“I think we were 15 of 20 clearing the ball, which is not really acceptable at North Carolina,” Tar Heels midfielder Ryan Creighton said. “That wasn’t really how we were planning on starting the ACC (play), but we’ll learn from it. We have stuff to build on. We’ll take it from here and get better heading into (our game against) Princeton…I’m fully confident we’ll bounce back next week.”

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - Joining the nation's strongest men's lacrosse league was going to lead to some memorable games and No. 11 Notre Dame made its first contest in the Atlantic Coast Conference unforgettable with a thrilling 11-10 come-from-behind victory at No. 2 North Carolina on Saturday afternoon at Fetzer Field.
Notre Dame (2-1, 1-0) trailed 8-3 early in the third quarter, yet responded with five unanswered goals to tie the game up less than 30 seconds into the final period. The rally began on a goal from Matt Kavanagh, who had three goals and two assists in the contest. Midfielder Tyler Brenneman sliced the deficit to three (8-5) with his first goal of the season.
North Carolina (3-1, 0-1) was whistled for three non-releasable penalties at the 1:45 mark of the third quarter and the Fighting Irish played two-men up for one minute and took advantage with goals from midfielders Sergio Perkovic and Jim Marlatt. Kavanagh completed his hat trick to make it 8-8. The sophomore attackman has nine goals and eight assists this season.
Following a Tar Heel score from Jimmy Bitter, Notre Dame attackman Conor Doyle drilled a low-angle shot to make it 9-9 with 11:04 remaining. The Fighting Irish grabbed their first lead of the day (10-9) with just over six minutes left in regulation on a Jack Near goal. Another man-up score from the freshman Perkovic pushed the Irish lead to two with 4:14 left. Bitter put North Carolina back to within one 23 seconds later, but that was the final goal of the game.
"The message at halftime was to stay the course and not panic," Notre Dame head coach Kevin Corrigan said. "I didn't feel that we were playing badly, we just weren't finishing our chances."
The Tar Heels led 4-0 by the 6:06 mark of the first quarter and Notre Dame starting goalie Conor Kelly was replaced by freshman Shane Doss at that time. Doss played the remainder of the game and made 10 saves. Arguably his biggest stop of the day came around the nine-minute mark of the fourth quarter when he negated a point-blank shot from Pat Foster to keep the game tied 9-9.
Midfielder Trevor Brosco put the Irish on the board with 5:30 remaining in the opening period, but the Tar Heels led 5-1 at the end of the quarter. A man-up goal from John Scioscia cut the Tar Heel lead to three (5-2), but consecutive tallies from Foster and Shane Simpson put the hosts up by five. Kavanagh found the back of the net for the first time with just over three minutes left in the first half and the Irish trailed 7-3 at the intermission.
Notre Dame's Liam O'Connor excelled in the faceoff game, winning 16 of his 23 attempts. The Irish also capitalized on most of their man-up opportunities as they went 4-for-7. The Fighting Irish outshot the Tar Heels 39-29 and North Carolina goalie Kieran Burke made 10 saves.
Notre Dame will step away from ACC action to face No. 5 Denver next Saturday in the Pacific Coast Shootout. The game is slated for noon (PT) at LeBard Stadium on the campus of Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa, Calif.

Benefits of Activated Charcoal
Activated charcoal is that it-ingredient in everyone’s beauty routine today. It’s everywhere from face masks to toothpaste. But what exactly is it and what can it do for you?
Activated charcoal is a black, odorless powder that's obtained by applying extreme heat to natural carbon, such as wood. This process "activates" the charcoal, reducing the size of the pores and increasing its overall surface area.
This results in an incredibly absorbent substance, allowing it to bind to any free molecules and atoms.
Even though activated charcoal is a trendy ingredient today, it's actually nothing new. It has been prized since ancient times as a purifying agent. People back then used it to purify water in barrels, preventing the wood from rotting, and even for preserving the dead.
It didn’t take long for people to use activated charcoal’s absorbent qualities in their beauty routines. Adding this to your usual regimen will lead to a smoother, younger, and more radiant complexion.
The reason for activated charcoal’s effectiveness is that it works on so many levels. For one, it’s an effective antifungal and antibacterial skin treatment that inhibits the growth of bacteria such as E. Coli and Staph. This also helps in the healing process for acne and psoriasis.
Since activated charcoal is both fine and absorbent at the same time, it's amazing at deep cleansing your face. It works by binding itself to dirt, oil, and grime that lives deep in your skin's pores and extracting it. That’s why activated charcoal facials are excellent for those with oily skin.
Activated charcoal also makes for a powerful exfoliant. This is because activated charcoal particles are slightly rough and absorbent, capable of picking up dead skin cells. Regular exfoliation is proven to be one of the best ways to maintain a glowing, youthful skin. -theveganwarehouse.com

The finding that total viral abundance is higher than total prokaryotic abundance and that a significant fraction of the prokaryotic community is infected with phages in aquatic systems has stimulated research on the ecology of prokaryotic viruses and their role in ecosystems. This review treats the ecology of prokaryotic viruses ('phages') in marine, freshwater and soil systems from a 'virus point of view'. The abundance of viruses varies strongly in different environments and is related to bacterial abundance or activity suggesting that the majority of the viruses found in the environment are typically phages. Data on phage diversity are sparse but indicate that phages are extremely diverse in natural systems. Lytic phages are predators of prokaryotes, whereas lysogenic and chronic infections represent a parasitic interaction. Some forms of lysogeny might be described best as mutualism. The little existing ecological data on phage populations indicate a large variety of environmental niches and survival strategies. The host cell is the main resource for phages and the resource quality, i.e., the metabolic state of the host cell, is a critical factor in all steps of the phage life cycle. Virus-induced mortality of prokaryotes varies strongly on a temporal and spatial scale and shows that phages can be important predators of bacterioplankton. This mortality and the release of cell lysis products into the environment can strongly influence microbial food web processes and biogeochemical cycles. Phages can also affect host diversity, e.g., by 'killing the winner' and keeping in check competitively dominant species or populations. Moreover, they mediate gene transfer between prokaryotes, but this remains largely unknown in the environment. Genomics or proteomics are providing us now with powerful tools in phage ecology, but final testing will have to be performed in the environment.

Freya Beach Hut Bandless Halter Bikini Top - Black
The Freya Beach Hut Bandless Halter Bikini Top in Black at Bras Galore Retro inspired Beach Hut features a chevron stripe print and bunny knot bows, Beach Hut is a perfect match with Remix or Sundance for a fresh style statement.
The Freya underwired bandless halter bikini top has a high apex triangle shape, plunge neckline and super halter neck ties for a look that is bang on trend.
The color black relates to the hidden, the secretive and the unknown, and as a result it creates an air of mystery. It's protection and comfort. Mixed with White, the color white is color at its most complete and pure, the color of perfection. The psychological meaning of white is purity, innocence, wholeness and completion.

May 2009: Rob And Kristen Almost Kiss
Even though Kristen was still dating her BF Michael Angarano, rumors were flying that she was secretly dating Rob. They both denied that anything romantic was going on, but were often seen holding hands and being super flirty with each other. Then, at the MTV Movie Awards, they teased everyone with an almost kiss while accepting the award for Best On-Screen Kiss. "I'm a really bad kisser!" Rob told Seventeen. "I hadn't kissed anyone for a while before filming Twilight." Looked good to us, Rob!

I have a bunch of new really great bestest buddies at SRAM now, they just don't know it yet. SRAM guys; Have I mentioned how nice you looked today? Those white shirts really make you look thin (and sexy- to the opposite sex of course...).
In keeping with the restriction on what I can tell you about the new SRAM road group, let me just say that I was thoroughly impressed by the demo products they presented to us. I sat on a demo bike on a trainer and "rode" the new group prototypes (on a bike about 8 sizes too small) and was really pleased with what I saw and touched. Not to give away my hand, but I am excited by these new developments. As I mentioned before, I love Shimano and have some great friends there and I have always thought of Campy as the sexiest parts you can find, but these new SRAM parts are going to get a lot of attention- and rightfully so. I was wowed.
I can't tell you how any of the parts work, though the secret is only in the shifters really. Let me just say this; WOW! I swear I'm not kissing SRAM's ass when I say that I really, really, really liked the way the shifting works. Smooth, crisp, precise. WOW! Now, no new product is without flaws and these are no different that way, but I believe that SRAM is going to do well with these parts when they are finally available to the masses.
SRAM guys, here's my shameless plea (since I know you read this blog and are likely looking to see what I say about the parts); please let me know when I can get my hands on a set of the parts to test on my own bike/s. SRAM engineers; I hope you get a nice fat bonus because you did a great damned job.
Shimano and Campagnolo; you guys should know by now that I love you both, but I hope that this development leads to some healthy competition and further innovation in componentry. SRAM has a great new product that you absolutely have to take seriously because it will work well and will gain some traction quickly. It's good... really good.
Here's to some great new products coming from SRAM really soon and then some great new products to follow from Shimano and Campagnolo. This new third option/ player in the component world is going to "shift" things around. I, for one, am very happy about this because I honestly believe this will ultimately be good for the industry. Too few people holding too much of the market is bad, in my opinion.
SRAM- good job! Sign me up...

Who is Brian Blessed's Wife? Does he have a daughter?
Brian Blessed is one of the most astounding individuals in the entertainment industry, with many titles up his sleeves. He is an actor, presenter, writer, and devoted mountaineer.
With his blazing popularity, many are curious about his love life, questioning, 'is Brian Blessed married?' However, apart from having his professional life track at its peak, his personal life also flourishes with colors of joy and happiness alongside his wife and daughter.
Brian Blessed's Wife
The 'Flash Gordon' star, Brian, tied the knot with his significant other, Hildegarde Neil, in 1978. The couple has walked in as a husband and wife duo ever since.
He never misses a chance to compliment his beautiful spouse. Whether it is interviews or any talk shows, he makes sure that his lovely beau feels loved and takes a moment to cherish her worth.
Moreover, his beautiful partner, Neil, is also one of the most well-recognized faces in cinemas. 'A Touch of Class,' 'England Made Me,' 'The Legacy,' and many of the movies have flourished the box-office with her astounding contributions in it.
However, 2020 was a tough one to combat Brian's wife; it was a year where millions of people were drowning amidst the scary pandemic, Covid-19.
On top of that, Brian's wife was undergoing the horrors of cancer at the time. Unfortunately, she hadn't fully recovered from the fatal, and she caught Covid-19.
Moreover, the coronavirus also weakened her heart, which added risk to her health condition. Naturally, this aroused a lot of stress in the family.
Brian and his spouse were at their lowest during that time. However, they kept immense faith and confidence in themselves.
The chances were low, but the hopes were set high, and finally, their hope rose the trophy of victory as Neil beat cancer and Covid. To this, Brian lit up with joy and shared,
My wife, Hildegarde Neil. She had cancer at the beginning of the year, and she had gone into recession, she beat that, then she got Covid, then beat Covid.
"Then, after that, it weakened her heart, and she has mastered that. She is out shopping now, and she is walking the dog, and she is 81. No, for god's sake, we are going to make it. This Covid will pass on, and it will die."
Brian constantly kept showering his wife with praisings for combating her health crisis. Since then, the couple has never undergone anything severe, and they have been leading a life piled up with glee and laughter.
Also, he is a barrel of laughs who never fails to flaunt a smile on anyone's face with his humorous yet to-the-point answers. To the rumors of him being identified as gay, he replied with,
I suffered from homophobia, despite not being gay…To my mates, and some who weren't quite as matey, being an actor is the same as being homosexual.
His humorous answer did justify many questions. However, the question that keeps the audience curious is regarding his children.
Is Brian Blessed with Kids?
Brian does have two daughters. He shares a beautiful daughter Rosalind Blessed with his spouse, Neil, while he shares another daughter with his ex-partner, Ann Bomann.
Brian was first married to Ann, with whom he had a daughter named Catherine.

After the couple parted ways, his eldest daughter cut all her connections with him. She hasn't been in touch with her father ever since.
However, all the sweet reminiscences are kept in treasure by her father, Brian. He has often expressed his disappointment that he knows nothing about his elder daughter and has lost a complete connection with her.
Despite so much of devastating ongoings in his life, he never failed to flaunt his beautiful smile, gliding off all his pain to himself. Brian indeed is a man piled in with so much goodness in him.
He might have gotten older today, but the aroma he has left behind will never get old to his loving audience.

NASA picture reveals huge 'coronal hole' on Sun's South Pole
January 4, 2014 /Photography News/ There were no fireworks on the sun to welcome in the New Year and only a few C-class flares during the last day of 2014. Instead, the sun starts 2015 with an enormous coronal hole near the south pole. This image, captured on January 1, 2015 by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) instrument on NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, shows the coronal hole as a dark region in the south.
Coronal holes are regions of the corona where the magnetic field reaches out into space rather than looping back down onto the surface. Particles moving along those magnetic fields can leave the sun rather than being trapped near the surface. Those trapped particles can heat up and glow, giving us the lovely AIA images. In the parts of the corona where the particles leave the sun, the glow is much dimmer and the coronal hole looks dark.
Coronal holes were first seen in images taken by astronauts on board NASA’s Skylab space station in 1973 and 1974. They can be seen for a long time, although the exact shape changes all the time. The polar coronal hole can remain visible for five years or longer.

Lovely piece and works well. I leave this on my dresser and it looks nice!
from Chattanooga TN
December 22, 2020
I have struggled with the plastic and broken quite a few, not more. This is the perfect helper. Wrists bare no more
March 16, 2021
I spied this charming widget in an email update. I clicked on it to find an informational video. Once I viewed the video I was sold! What a clever idea to metamorphose a lorgnette design into a delightful novelty practical enough for daily usage. I adore! The clincher is mighty, taking a firm hold of your clasp enabling you to attach a bracelet breezily. Additionally, I find it bewildering how another reviewer could so boldly recommend that you not buy this item as she claims it being difficult to use. Well it?s not and is worthy of far more than the one star she so stingily gave it. Lastly, the design is beautiful, functional and feels lovely to behold as well as being perfect in gracing a vanity of little wonders.

Realme unveiled its latest 5G smartphone, the realme 7 5G. The device, which is initially available to European and Indian markets, doesn’t just bring 5G at an affordable price but also improves on several specs compared to the vanilla realme 7.
Chief among the improvements is the chipset. The realme 7 5G uses a MediaTek Dimensity 800U with 5G connectivity and dual 5G sim support. Realme said it scored around 340,000+ points on AnTuTu. It’s paired with a Mali-G57 GPU, 6GB LPDDR4x RAM, and 128GB UFS 2.1 storage.
The realme 7 5G also features an improved display. It has the same 6.5-inch full HD+ IPS display but with a smoother 120Hz refresh rate and an ultra-high 180Hz touch sampling rate.
In the camera department, a lower megapixel main camera was used with a 48MP sensor, compared with the previous 64MP. But they managed to retain the 8MP ultra-wide, 2MP monochrome and 2MP macro sensors.
The rest of the realme 7 5G’s specs are pretty much the same from here on out. It has a 16MP punch hole front camera. Battery capacity is 5,000mAh with support for 30W Dart Charge. The fingerprint scanner is embedded on the power button. And lastly, it runs on realme UI based on Android 10.
As for the price, the realme 7 5G will retail for EUR 279, which is roughly around Php 16,000 or USD 332. That makes it one of the most affordable, if not the most affordable, 5G phones.
At this point, there’s no information yet if it will make it to the Philippines. But we’re hoping realme PH surprises us fans for the holidays.

The Miami Ohio RedHawks (7-4) travel to Muncie, Indiana on Friday for a Mid-American Conference clash with the Ball State Cardinals (4-7). Kickoff is set for 12:00 PM EST on November 29th at Scheumann Stadium and the game will be televised on the CBS Sports Network.
Taking a look at the Week 14 college football odds, Ball State opened as a 2.5-point home favorite earlier this week. The spread has increased by half a point after early betting, as the Cardinals are currently available at -3. The total for the game is sitting at 55 points.
Vegas Betting Preview & Game Odds: Ball State vs Miami Ohio
Miami OH won their fifth straight game last week, beating Akron 20-17 at home to improve to 7-4 on the season overall. The RedHawks jumped out to an early 17-3 lead in the first half and managed to hang on for the victory over the final two quarters despite getting outscored by the Zips 14-3. QB Brett Gabbert wasn’t at his best, throwing two interceptions and going 10/21 for 117 passing yard. RB Jaylon Bester led the way on the ground, rushing for 128 yards and a touchdown on a team-high 21 carries. Jack Sorenson also chipped in, hauling in three receptions for 46 yards. Overall, Miami OH gained well over 350 total yards of offense and found the end zone twice in the win.
The RedHawks had a pretty solid outing on the other side of the ball against Akron, surrendering just over 200 total yards of offense and one touchdown. Miami OH was especially strong defending against the run, allowing only five net rushing yards the entire game.
Ball State has now lost four consecutive games after falling 41-38 on the road against Kent State to drop to 4-7 on the season overall. The Cardinals had a 24-21 lead at the half but couldn’t find a way to close out the win, giving up 20 points over the final two quarters of the game. QB Drew Plitt went 16/24 for 208 passing yards and a touchdown through the air while also adding another score on the ground as well. RB Caleb Huntley absolutely torched the Golden Flashes defense, rushing for 192 yards and two touchdowns on a game-high 30 carries. Walter Fletcher also got in on the scoring parade, hitting pay dirt on one of his four catches for 74 yards. As a whole, Ball State generated almost 550 total yards of offense and scored five touchdowns despite coming up just short on the scoreboard.
The Cardinals didn’t play well defensively against Kent State, giving up well over 600 total yards of offense and five touchdowns. Ball State had no answer for Golden Flashes WR Isaiah McKoy, allowing him to rack up 159 receiving yards and three touchdowns on just six catches.
NCAA Football Betting Predictions & Free Pick: OVER 55
While I also think that Miami Ohio offers at least a little bit of value against the spread in this particular spot, my favorite play from this Mid-American Conference showdown is the OVER on 55 total points scored. Ball State has really struggled on defense this season, giving up an average of well over 30 points per game. However, their offense has certainly picked up the slack, scoring at least 31 points in four out of their last five outings. On the other side, the RedHawks haven’t nearly been nearly as explosive offensively, averaging closer to 25 points per game. Even so, they have shown they are capable of putting up points in a hurry, scoring over 40 points on two separate occasions through their first eleven games.

It is also important to note that the total has now gone OVER in four out of Ball State’s last five games overall. The OVER has also come through in six out of their last seven outings at home as well. These two MAC rivals were also involved in a high-scoring battle when they met last year, combining for 63 total points in a game with a 55.5 point total. Despite not minding the RedHawks against the spread here in Week 14, I’m going to take a shot with the OVER on 55 total points scored on Friday afternoon.

This paper presents soil moisture retrieval from measured polarimetric backscattering coefficients of a vegetated surface. Based on the analysis of the quite complicate first-order radiative transfer scattering model for vegetated surfaces, a simplified scattering model is proposed for an inversion algorithm. Extraction of the surface-scatter component from the total scattering of a vegetation canopy is addressed using the simplified model, and also using the three-component decomposition technique. The back-scattering coefficients are measured with a polarimetric L-band scatterometer during two months as well as the biomasses, leaf moisture contents, and soil moisture contents. Then the measurement data are used to estimate the model parameters for vv-, hh-, and vh-polarizations. The scattering model for tall-grass-covered surfaces is inverted to retrieve the soil moisture content from the measurements using a genetic algorithm. The retrieved soil moisture contents agree quite well with the in-situ measured soil moisture data.

Stormy weather set to move in briefly tomorrow afternoon (Thursday) but will clear by the evening.
THE Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for North Devon tomorrow (Thursday) despite glorious sunshine today.
The region is currently basking in temperatures in the mid-to-high twenties, but heavy showers and thunderstorms are likely to develop tomorrow afternoon.
A chief forecaster for the Met Office said: “An unstable airmass across South West England on Thursday, in combination with high daytime temperatures, will bring the risk of some heavy thunderstorms during the afternoon and early evening.
“Hourly rainfall rates of 20 to 30 m in an hour are possible, and some of these thundery showers could also persist in a few spots for a number of hours, with a risk of surface water flooding.
“These showers are likely to be slow-moving and very localised, hence most places will miss them.”
The warning is currently in place from midday tomorrow until 9pm.

Previous multidimensional indicators adopted in Colombia, such as the Unmet Basic Needs or the Living Conditions Index, lose their policy relevance and arguably have become poor instruments for poverty measurement. This paper presents the Colombian Multidimensional Poverty Index (CMPI), a synthetic indicator that overcomes the methodological problems that arose from previous multidimensional indices, and that has a broad public policy scope of use. The CMPI is based on the methodology of Alkire and Foster (2010); is composed of five dimensions (education of household members, childhood and youth conditions, health, employment and access to household utilities and living conditions); and uses a nested weighting structure, where each dimension is equally weighted, as is each indicator within each dimension. This paper proposes the CMPI to tracking multiple deprivations across the national territory, to monitor public policies by sector and to design poverty reduction goals, among other public policy uses. Analysis of the results demonstrates that multidimensional poverty in Colombia decreased between 1997 and 2010. Multidimensional poverty rates decreased in both urban and rural areas, but imbalances remain.

T1 Backup Appliances
T1 offers a family of backup appliances that provide backup, restore and recovery services designed to meet your data protection, business continuity and disaster recovery needs.
Standard Service Capabilities
All of our appliances (low-end or high-end) provide core protection and recovery of your data. The types of data that can be protected include file shares, a variety of databases, Exchange Servers (both Store and Message Level) and SharePoint (including item level restore). When these appliances are deployed three copies of your data can be maintained; a local copy on dedicated appliance storage, a second copy in our primary vault location and a third copy in our replication data center.
The more advanced models (MBA 800 and 900 Series) provide a variety of additional services including:
- Image-level backups of physical Windows-based servers with warm failover to the appliance.
- Backup & Restore of VMware Virtual Machines via VADP Backup Sets including: VM level backup and recovery and memory backup and recovery directly onto the appliance. This is known as Local VDR.
- Backup of VMware Virtual Machines via VADP Backup Sets to the Cloud with VM Machine Creation on T1’s DR Hot site. This is known as Remote VDR.
- Backup and restore of Hyper-V virtual servers running on Windows 2012 Server.
Appliance Infrastructure and Functionality
The appliance architecture is designed to separate backup activities from client systems to ensure there are no conflicts. The BA is a standalone platform that requires a single connection to the client’s network. From this platform all backup activities across the client’s local and wide area networks can be managed from a single GUI. There are no resource conflicts with vital business applications nor is it necessary that the appliance be joined to the client’s domain. The disk storage for maintaining local copies and local only backups is contained within the appliance. In the advanced models the virtual machine images that support warm failover are part of the appliance. If an appliance fails any reason a new one is shipped to the client, an emergency database recovery is performed and backup operations are resumed eliminating the need to re-seed backups.
