Now White is speaking out about the collaboration, stating: “After a couple of years of wanting to collaborate with Alicia Keys, it took James Bond himself to finally make it happen. Alicia put some electric energy into her breath that cemented itself into the magnetic tape. Very inspiring to watch. It gave me a new voice, and I wasn’t myself anymore. I drummed for her voice and she mimicked the guitar tones, then we joined our voices and screamed and moaned about these characters in the film and their isolation, having no one to trust, not even themselves. Maybe we became them for a few minutes.”
He continues: “The Memphis Horns were there to help us out, along with some of Nashville’s finest. Might be the first analogue Bond theme in twenty years, I don’t know. We wanted to push soul into those tapes, and join the family of Barry, Bassey, Connery and Craig.”

Sea turtles likely have been nesting on Oak Island for as long as the island has existed. Matthew Godfrey, Ph.D., a biologist for the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, says the main species nesting on Oak Island is the Loggerhead, with some occasional Green turtles. “We have records of nests of Loggerheads on Oak Island going back to 1984,” Godfrey says. “But, there are earlier records of Loggerheads in Carolina going all the way back to Mark Catesby, who reported them in 1743.”
Every year from May through August, late at night while most homeowners of Oak Island Realstate in North Carolina, are fast asleep, an amazing phenomenon occurs. Loggerhead turtles emerge from the ocean and drag themselves across the sand, leaving behind them what looks to be an oversized tire track. They search for the ideal spot between the dunes and the high-tide line, where they will dig a hole with their back flipper and lay their eggs a foot and a half deep. After covering their eggs with sand, they gradually make their way back to the ocean without a second look back.
The beach is closely monitored during the nesting months. Kellie Beeson, director of the Oak Island Parks and Recreation Department and part of the Oak Island Sea Turtle Protection Program, scans the beach daily looking for the inimitable turtle tracks and depressions in the sand. She marks off the nests with four stakes, yellow tape and a sign marked with the date — otherwise, you wouldn’t know the nests were there. Beeson then coordinates with volunteers to assist with the hatching process.
Overall, the incubation period is between 55 and 85 days. “We begin to monitor the nests on the 50th day, as average hatching is around 62 days this season,” Beeson says. Nesting typically ends mid-August, although eggs may continue to incubate into November.
It’s critical for the nests to be watched closely so the new hatchlings can get back to the ocean without falling prey to seagulls or ghost crabs. How many of the hatchlings survive is highly dependent upon the concentrated efforts of the Protection Program and its volunteers, as well as the residents. “We have hundreds of folks that assist but are either visitors to the island or are not able to make the 100 percent commitment required to be a nest parent,” Beeson says. “The number of folks that are unofficially involved with our program in any one season easily exceeds one thousand.”
When a nest hatches, volunteers are on hand with flashlights to help direct the baby turtles to the ocean. Since the turtles’ natural instinct is to follow the light reflected from the surface of the sea, which may not always be prevalent, the flashlight assistance is critical for them so they don’t go toward an artificial light opposite of the ocean. Once they make their way across the beach, they immerse themselves into the ocean to begin their life journeys.
The female hatchlings that survive to adulthood, after making their way through life in various parts of the ocean, will travel back some thousands of miles to return to where they were born, in this case Oak Island, to nest their future brood.

Exact lands three marlin in two days
LAHAINA – The Exact had a nice two-day, three blue marlin run by Capt. Sal Tarantino and deckman Capt. Andy Payne.
They started things off weighing a 491.5-pound blue for 14-year-old John Ivan. Andy saw the marlin rip the line down off the long corner rigger position and then run out 50 yards. It turned and came charging in toward the port side of the boat. Sal could see it, just under the surface, as it came streaking by 40 feet off the stern.
The marlin got tangled up in the long rigger and long gone lines, pulling them along with it. It then went down, with Sal kicking the boat around toward the direction of the fish. Sal thought for sure the marlin was going to cut the long rigger off. As Andy began to unwrap the lines, the marlin exploded from the water, jumping 150 yards off the starboard side.
Andy finally got everything unwrapped and in the boat. Sal chased after the marlin for ten minutes, losing line the entire time. They were halfway into the spool before it finally stopped its run. The fish headed straight down, slowly rolling the 100-test line off the spool.
Andy pushed up the drag and put the reel into low gear. Sal planed the marlin up for about five minutes, until John could get into a rhythm of lifting the rod. After that, Sal kept the boat in neutral as John worked his fish up over the next 30 minutes.
Once the marlin started to come up, it came all the way up. It popped up at double line and rolled onto its side. It was done. The marlin didn’t put up any form of a struggle as Andy pulled it in, with Sal getting it secured.
The next day, the Exact headed out with Captains Tarantino and Payne, landing two blue marlin. The first one weighed 267.5 pounds by Josh Turnipseed. They were 140 fathoms off Manele Bay, Lanai, heading out in the morning, getting their strike on the short rigger Steve Coggin lure.
The marlin pulled out half-a-spool of 100-test line as it headed deep. It took Josh about 30 minutes to work his fish up. It came in pretty easy at leader as Andy hauled it up.
On their way back in on the charter, they raised a 318.1-pound blue for Mike Kliparchuk four miles off the Manele hotel. It engulfed the long gone “General Jet” lure and went nuts. The marlin climbed straight up out of the water on its tail, like a ballistic missile, then fell right back into the hole it made.
It made the same up and down vertical maneuver again and then stopped dead in the water. It shook its head a few times as it threw its stomach, trying to dislodge the hooks. The marlin made a big circle behind the boat and then jumped straight up and down several more times.
The marlin wasn’t pulling out any of the 60-test line, so Sal had to motor the boat ahead away from it to keep the line tight. That was about as much line as it took before it went straight down.
They had the marlin to double line in about ten minutes. Sal told Andy, “It’s here already.” Andy had just gotten the second fly gaff set up. Sal motored away from the fish, because they weren’t quite ready for it to come to leader. “It came up surprisingly quick,” mentioned Andy.
The marlin came right to the boat, with no problems at leader and gaff. It was hurt, with both hooks stuck in its belly after swallowing the lure. It also had a long line hook embedded in the corner of its jaw.

All local animal owners need to review the proposal and contact city officials as this proposal affects all animals. Natchez, Mississippi has proposed a blanket ban on all "exotic" animals and also common livestock. There are also new permits and regulations for dogs and cats.
The exotic animal ban will include every species except "dogs, cats, pot-bellied pigs or other common household pets." Any exotic animal will be seized from the owner.
All livestock (only dogs, cats and pot-bellied pigs are excluded) will be banned but there is a grandfather clause for livestock held before the ordinance passes. That means no livestock animals could be kept in the future. To qualify under the grandfather clause the animals must be kept at least 300 feet from any neighbor. Additionally, any premise with grandfathered livestock can be randomly inspected by animal control at any time.
For dogs and cats, the proposal includes a new annual $150 Breeding/Unaltered Animal Permit for each animal. That means if someone has three unaltered dogs, the annual fee is $450 (that's $4,500 over 10 years). The dog/cat permit qualifications are very restrictive. New tethering and Trap, Neuter, Release (TNR) regulations are also included.
The full exotic animal ban reads:
"The provisions of this article shall not apply to dogs, cats, pot-bellied pigs or other common household pets.
If any exotic wild animal is found within the city limits the game warden will be summoned for the animal(s) removal."
LINK to full proposal: www.usark.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Natchez-MS-animal-ordinance-2019.pdf
What To Do
(Remember to be civil and professional at all times!)
Attend the hearing and contact the Aldermen ASAP! No hearing is yet set so ask your Aldermen when this may be heard. Hearings are held on the second (at 11:00 AM) and fourth (at 6:00 PM) Tuesdays of each month at 115 S. Pearl Street.
Animal owners need to educate city officials and properly inform them about the overreaching and illogical nature of this proposal.
Email list: email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.org, email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.org,
Please edit as you feel appropriate. You may also take snippets from our above alert.
As a responsible animal owner, I implore you to reconsider and conduct additional research on your proposed animal ordinance amendments. I can only imagine that this proposal did not receive adequate consideration. For example, 1 in every 20 households in the U.S. has an exotic pet reptile. Exotic reptile pets increase in popularity each year as they are far more suitable pets for many people than dogs and cats might be. They pose no public safety risks and are highly misunderstood by many people. Many small exotic mammals are also regularly kept including hedgehogs and sugar gliders.
Popular reptile pet species which will be banned include Greek tortoises, leopard geckos, bearded dragons, ball pythons, sand boas, and hundreds more. Additionally, amphibian species like red-eyed tree frogs, Pac-Man frogs, axolotl salamanders, and others will be banned. Most of these animals are bred in the U.S. by dedicated keepers.
As proposed, the only species which could be kept are dogs, cats, and pot-bellied pigs. If you are unaware, Mississippi already has state laws covering inherently dangerous animal and exotic livestock so what is the need to ban thousands of additional species?
I am also greatly concerned regarding the new regulations banning all livestock and those affecting dog and cat owners. Please work with local animal owners and stakeholders to become aware of all the unintended consequences of this proposal.
Please refuse the proposal and send it back to the drawing board. Do not make a bad decision for the animals and people of Natchez. Thank you for your time and have a good day.

The Feminine Voice at BBI-TAITE
As communities across the world mark International Womens Day on 8 March, it is a fitting time to celebrate the remarkable contribution female academics make to the success of BBI-The Australian Institute of Theological Education and theological research more generally.
The theme for this year’s International Women’s Day is #PressForProgress with communities encouraged to work together to progress gender parity and to think, act and be gender inclusive.
BBI-TAITE’s Faculty and Teaching Staff features many talented women who have gained international respect for their teaching and research across all four academic disciplines- Religious Education; Leadership & Theology; Theological Studies and Governance & Canon Law.
Speaking from her home in the rural town of Porongurup in Western Australia’s south-west, one of BBI-TAITE’s young lecturers Dr Michelle Jones reflects upon what led her to teach theology.
“I felt a strong calling to a life of contemplation and as a consecrated woman living in a rural community, BBI-TAITE allows me to teach my students online from a remote location while also living out my religious vocation at the same time”, Dr Jones explains.
“In many ways, theology is about a vulnerable God, yearning to be birthed within the vulnerability of humanity. I suspect that women – who, ideally, allow themselves and others to find the strength of grace in the marginalised, broken areas of their lives – have an essential contribution to make when it comes to uttering words about this unutterable Mystery.”
“I would like to put together a unit at BBI-TAITE on the Women Doctors of the Church including St Catherine of Siena, St Teresa of Avila and St Therese of Lisieux who although they lived centuries ago, still have such rich insights to offer Christians in contemporary Australia today”, she added.
Fellow BBI-TAITE lecturer Tracy McEwan is undertaking a PhD, exploring the religious identity and participation of Generation X women in Australia who currently or have previously identified as Catholic.
“The Generation X women may not have been active members of a Church community, but tended to express their faith more through practical, volunteer work with groups such as the St Vincent De Paul Society”, she added.
“As a feminist theologian, I believe it’s particularly important to celebrate the everyday experience of Catholic women in the Church, to relate those experiences to the modern world and to draw lessons around how the Church can better engage with women in today’s society”.
Based on a farm in the rural town of Wherrol Flat in the NSW Manning Valley, BBI-TAITE lecturer Dr Dianne Rayson was drawn towards the study of theology only five years ago after a career in public health and public policy focused on working with disadvantaged communities in the Northern Territory and Papua New Guinea.
“I became frustrated with the lack of a Christian voice at that time around what I see as one of the seminal issues of our generation- climate change”, Dr Rayson said.
As a Master of Theology student, Dianne Rayson received a Flechtheim Scholarship which led her to studying the theology of the prominent 20th century German theologian, Dr Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
“It was through Bonhoeffer’s writings that I could see a contemporary Christian response to global warming and this formed the basis for my PhD research”, Dr Rayson explained.
“In addition to researching feminist ecotheology, I am now looking towards applying Bonhoeffer's theology to other important public policy areas, such as rape culture on university campuses, and the ecological effects of war.”
BBI-TAITE Lecturer Dr Catherine Thom RSJ says the unique mission of women as leaders in the Catholic Church was celebrated in the documents released at the conclusion of the Second Vatican Council in 1965, but its message has not been fully heard in the Church today.
“The Vatican II documents described women as the first educators of the human race and urged women to watch carefully over the future of our race, holding back the hand of man, who, in a moment of folly, might attempt to destroy human civilisation”, Dr Thom explained.
“Pope Francis has also expressed his personal view that the presence of women in the Church has not been emphasised much because as he put it, ‘the temptation of machismo’ hasn’t allowed a space to make visible the place of women in the community.”
“This highlights the fact that the fruits of Vatican II and especially its writings on the mission of women in the Church have sadly not yet been fully realised and International Women’s Day is indeed a good opportunity to reflect upon that and look at ways of promoting a more inclusive Church for current and future generations of women”, Dr Thom added.

8 fun multiplication games for your math centers
I LOVE playing games (not gonna lie, I've been known to get a little too serious about a game or two of Monopoly). But it's not just me. My students LOVED playing games. I've never seen such an engaged group as when we played math games during Funday Friday. Do you want to know the best thing about math games for the classroom? Math games are not only fun, but they're an incredibly good way to practice math skills! They turn boring ol' math practice into a fun, motivational exercise. In fact, games are so much fun that students don't even know that they're learning! Sshhh..just don't tell my students. I want to share 8 fun multiplication games that you can use in your math centers. One reason I love these multiplication games is because they don't require you to buy anything special. You can use materials you already have in your classroom. So dig out the dice, playing cards, math counters, and let's play some math games!

During a work session on Tuesday, July 26, commissioners heard a proposal for Davidson-Forsyth, a mixed-use development in south Forsyth between Peachtree Parkway and Old Atlanta Road.
The proposed development came about after a memorandum of understanding was approved in January 2020 between the county, SCARF Forsyth Ga, LLC and Midsouth Paving Inc., which called for half of the 800-acre land to be cut from the mining operation and be used for community use. Developers such as Toll Brothers and Empire Communities both thought that a mixed-use development with retail, office and residential possibilities would fit the space well.
“It’s just really a unique opportunity to take a big, 450-acre tract of land, and the only reason it’s sitting there and left to develop is because it’s part of a quarry,” said Paul Corley, regional president at Empire Communities.
According to a previous story, Davidson-Forsyth will feature a “mix of classic, modern and mercantile styles of architecture that would give the development a variety of looks” along with “several residential styles, including townhomes and single-family detached and attached units.”
As proposed, the development will have 15 residential pocket parks, two amenities’ complexes on either side of the development, over three miles of trails, townhomes “from the 400s” and estate homes “well over one million dollars.”
Lamar Wakefield, CEO of Wakefield, Beasley & Associates, said that as a resident of south Forsyth, he has seen a lot of people cutting through traffic at Aberdeen in an effort to get from Peachtree Parkway to Old Atlanta Road and vice versa. Wakefield said that he believed this mixed-use development would help to connect the two roads with a four-lane parkway.
“This is a real chance, in my opinion, to do a really dynamite mixed-use residential community,” Wakefield said.
He that he has been working with the same developers that planned Avalon in north Fulton County, and they have been looking at other mixed-use communities across the country for inspiration.
Wakefield said that traveling and visiting different mixed-use developments has helped him measure “what felt right” and what “didn’t feel right” in terms of spacing and density. Though, he did claim that “density is your friend” if you are in the food and beverage or retail industry.
The space is also big enough for a school to be on-site, and Wakefield said that they are working to get a STEM school developed at the location.
“I think it’s moving in the right direction,” said former District 2 Commissioner Dennis Brown at a previous meeting in 2020. “I like the way it’s headed with an emphasis on high-quality design and high-quality features in every regard, building a world-class destination, if you will.”
At the work session on Tuesday, commissioners agreed that they liked the plan, and Chairwoman Cindy Jones Mills specifically pointed out the lighting.
Christopher Light with Lipscomb, Johnson, Sleister Dailey & Smith, LLP asked for the board to allow the county staff to work with the developers on the overlay plan to make sure that “everyone understands the aspects of the deal.”
District 2 Commissioner Alfred John said that the project would likely require a Development of Regional Impact, or DRI. A DRI is a term used for different land use projects that have substantial effects on the health, safety and welfare of residents in the surrounding areas.
John said that he wanted to have more meetings with the developers before initiating the DRI and moving forward, but the developers had his support.
Commissioners did not take action on the item but instead said it will appear on a future agenda.
As a parting remark, Mills again said that she liked the plans for the development and joked about the developers helping in her district.
“It [looks] great. Great job,” Mills said. “Now get to work on Coal Mountain.”

You can find a great deal of design techniques to beautify your property with modern garnish. One of them is by putting illustrations or fine art. The nursery chandeliers is simply one of many simple, easy, and removable models of fine art to connect or pin on the panel without any problem even just in hall dedicated to private. It is rather generic for the interior on the house for use to show artwork, graphics or unique drawings. There can be numerous potential uses to ornament a family house, with out automatically filling this inside a confusing method. With a little creative power you can perform great things.
Wall art, that's the latest decor technique to produce a concept on the room. quotes painting ideas, 3D Printing Design, moldable art are few nice goods to adorn the walls. In a few towns such as prato make mock-up template for wall art style then apply it on wall with raw substance such as for instance selotip, canvas, stickers for room, living room, and other room on house. Several country such as France, Australia, some people get wall art on ikea, then hold it over bed or couch. It is perhaps not something new that every color has a meaning and also a psychological influence in some people.

FARO TrackArm less than two-thirds the price of 6DoF competitors
FARO Technologies, Inc., a leader in 3D measurement, introduced the next generation of its TrackArm technology, calling it the “most versatile portable 3D measurement system available,” and targeting sales in the automotive, aerospace and heavy machinery industries, as well as suppliers of large parts to the tunnel and mining and hydro and wind power industries.
Lake Mary, Fla.-based Faro (Nasdaq: FARO) manufactures high-precision 3D measurement and imaging devices and software used for inspecting components and assemblies, rapid prototyping, documenting large volume spaces or structures in 3D, surveying and construction, as well as for investigation and reconstruction of accident sites or crime scenes.
The FARO TrackArm combines the high accuracy and long range (up to 263 feet) of its FARO Laser Tracker Vantage with the versatility of its FaroArm product family – Edge, Prime or Fusion – into a long-reach, six-degree-of-freedom (6DoF) probe.
The FaroArm is a portable coordinate measuring machine (CMM) that allows manufacturers easy verification of product quality by performing 3D inspections, tool certifications, CAD comparison, dimensional analysis, reverse engineering, among other uses.
The new TrackArm expands the FaroArm’s working volume, allowing it to be quickly repositioned anywhere within the Laser Tracker’s measurement range; while remaining in the same coordinate system and the same software interface.
Users can attach FARO’s Laser Line Probe to the TrackArm for extended scanning and non-contact inspection abilities for reverse engineering, CAD-to-part analysis, and inspection purposes.
The integration of the two products eliminates the need for a synchronization cable between them, and allows the TrackArm to be operated wirelessly with the FaroArm’s built-in capability.
The CAM2 Measure 10 software provides a user interface to switch back and forth between the two systems, enabling the FaroArm’s 6DoF to reach points out of the Laser Tracker’s line-of-sight, including around corners and inside hole features.
FARO said the cost of a FaroArm combined with the cost of its Laser Tracker is still less than two-thirds the price of competing 6DoF systems. Plus, the FaroArm and Laser Tracker are still stand-alone portable CMMs that can also be used independently.
The TrackArm is sold as a complete system – Laser Tracker, FaroArm and TrackArm kit, whille current FaroArm and FARO Laser Tracker users can order the TrackArm upgrade to get the two portable CMMs to work together.
“Working together or apart, the TrackArm is a great value and will boost measurement efficiency on the shop floor,” said FARO CEO Jay Freeland.
Earlier this month, FARO reported a 31 percent drop in first quarter net income to $4.6 million, or 27 cents per share, on sales of $65.4 million, up just slightly compared to the same period last year.

A dog owner might experience an enriched life full of happiness and joyful moments. Apart from the great companionship that a pet dog offers and the entertainment one enjoy, pet owners also enjoy a healthier body. This has been backed by research and scientific studies by experts. There are countless emotional and physical perks for being a pet dog parent. When one hunts for dogs for adoption Houston is considered an excellent choice.
What are the benefits of having a pet dog?
The top six benefits of having a pet dog are mentioned below.
One can stay active all day long
According to the studies it has been proved that pet owners are comparatively more active and move their bodies flexibly than those without four-legged friends. A pet owner can achieve his/her fitness goals easily by walking and running every day along with his/her dog. This is an amazing way of keeping the body fit at the highest level. The best part is that one can have company and not get bored.
Pet owners get rid of rheumatoid arthritis
It might be a surprising fact that dogs help treat and cure people suffering from medical conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. Dogs can help such people to move and get involved in playful activities which are immensely important in rheumatoid arthritis and also keep your mind away from the pain. Pet dogs can motivate one to lead life normally. Hence, adopting a dog and giving the canine home is a good concept.
Getting relief from stress and anxiety
The present-day modern life is filled with stress and anxiety in both personal and professional life. Leading a stressful life means one is inviting other diseases that can eventually lead to fragile health and weakness in the entire body. Having a dog can help to loosen up the mind and one is free from all kinds of anxiety and tension as proved in the research. While looking for dogs for adoption in Houston offers innumerable choices that people can choose from.
One is less prone to heart attacks and strokes
It has been revealed by the scientific evidence that having a dog at home can be sometimes better than medicines. People with heart diseases can survive longer and stay fitter when there is a dog at home as compared to those who are not pet owners. Since there are lower cholesterol levels and low triglycerides, there are lesser chances of heart attacks and strokes.
Helps to lose weight at a shorter interval
Perhaps this is one of the most popular reasons for many individuals seeking puppies and parenting them. Taking care of the pet dogs and paying attention to their smallest details is a very challenging task. One needs to be very active for it. Furthermore, regularly making the dog walk can easily help one to shed the extra calories from your body.
Becoming a pet dog owner means enjoying companionship and staying entertained 24*7. Moreover, one can stay healthy and fit as well while parenting the dog. In recent years, there has been a rise in the adoption of dogs across the Houston region. In case, one is hunting for providers offering dogs for adoption in Houston can be considered for the myriad choices.


NASHVILLE (WATE) – The sponsor of a state bill that would require Tennessee students to use bathroom and locker rooms matching the sex on their birth certificate has pulled it from consideration. The bill, however, could be reintroduced later in the session.
Previous story: Tennessee lawmakers re-introduce transgender bathroom bill
A similar bill failed last year and faces an uphill battle in the state legislature with an estimated cost of $1 billion, based on the chase that federal funding could be pulled in retaliation.
The bill was set to be discussed Tuesday in the House Education Administration & Planning Subcommittee, but House sponsor Rep. Mark Pody took it off notice.

Lankenau Medical CenterMaster Plan
The Master Facilities Expansion and Renovation project was designed to provide the safest, most comfortable, most efficient environment for patients, family, staff and physicians. As part of this transformation, the plan entailed various components.
The newly constructed 5-story Heart and Lung Pavilion consisted of multi-phases including three inpatient floors and an ICU. The pavilion includes a new sky bridge to the existing parking garage and a connector building that connects the new pavilion to the existing hospital for continuity. The pavilion is the first dedicated heart and lung facility in the area and offers cardiovascular and pulmonary care, enhanced privacy and convenience, and resources for accelerated translation of scientific research into clinical practice.
An energy services center was constructed in the basement and ground floors of the new parking structure to provide new utility distribution throughout the campus. Services include new electrical, fiber optics, steam, condensate, and fuel oil line. A new chilled water plant with 2,000 tons of cooling capacity capable of supporting 1.1 million sq ft of occupied space was also added.
To improve campus access and parking, a new 1,306-car parking garage, and additional surface lots were added. The main entrance to the campus was renovated and a newly configured the rear boulevard was added.
There was also a major renovation to the facilities main café and servery, as part of the ongoing improvements to the campus. The café was completely renovated with an all new layout and new food service equipment. A major aspect of this new layout was removing the inter-communicating stair into the servery from the existing hospital lobby and installing a new monumental steel and glass stairway.

text: The survival of female Anopheles gambiae s.s. mosquitoes inside two village house types (grass-thatched and iron-roofed) was studied in relation to diet and ambient indoor microclimatic conditions. Two batches of 20–30, 1-day-old laboratory-bred mosquitoes were maintained inside cages in the grass-thatched (n=2) and iron-roofed (n=2) houses and fed daily, one group on 10% glucose and the other on human blood. Throughout the experiments, indoor temperature and relative humidity of the houses were recorded, and mortality of mosquitoes monitored daily until all had died. The experiments were replicated thrice. There was no significant variation in the overall mean temperature (P=0.93) or relative humidity profiles (P=0.099) between the two house types, although the iron-roofed houses recorded higher temperature peaks. A Kaplan–Meier survival analysis showed that the mean survival times of mosquitoes were 8 and 10 days in the two grass-thatched huts and 7 and 10 days in the two iron-roof houses for mosquitoes feeding on blood and sugar meals, respectively. The mean survival times of mosquitoes maintained inside similar house types differed only due to diet. In the proportionality of hazards model (Cox regression), the dietary regimes significantly influenced the probability of survival (P=0.0001), with mosquitoes surviving longer on sugar meals than on blood. Microclimatic factors inside houses also significantly influenced mosquito survival. Although higher peak temperatures were recorded in corrugated iron-roofed houses, the survival of the mosquitoes resting in them did not differ significantly from that in grass-thatched houses. However, the impact of these temperatures on the development of malaria parasites inside the vector needs to be investigated.

The most important discoveries and most exciting achievements in the field of science.
US scientists have proposed an explanation for the mystery of moon rocks, which contain evidence of a powerful magnetic field that once rivaled that of Earth.
The results of their study, published in the journal Nature Astronomy, show that the ancient Moon could have generated the field thanks to your own magnetic dynamo.
A magnetic dynamo is the effect of a self-generated magnetic field due to the presence of a metallic core (for large planets) rotating in a molten liquid mantle. Researchers at Brown University have shown that, in the case of the Moon, a strong magnetic field could be generated by internal convection caused by giant rock formations passing through the moon’s mantle. This field may not persist for long, but occurs periodically And it has great intensity.
The Moon currently has no magnetic field. Models of the core show that Earth’s satellite is too small and lacks the convective power to produce a constant strong field like Earth’s. This requires intense convective mixing due to the temperature difference between the core and the mantle. On the early Moon, the mantle was not much cooler than the core, so convection was not strong.
As the early Moon’s magmatic ocean began to cool and solidify, rocks containing the minerals olivine and pyroxene sank toward the core, and less dense minerals rose to the surface to form the crust. The titanium-bearing rocks solidified later, but turned out to be denser than the minerals below. Over time, the titanium formations sank into the less dense mantle rock. As each of the clots, up to 60 kilometers in size, reached the core, it gave the Moon’s dynamo a jolt, intensifying convection.

We consider two approaches to address angles between random subspaces: classical random matrix theory and free probability. In the former, one constructs random subspaces from vectors with independent random entries. In the latter, one has historically started with the uniform distribution on subspaces of appropriate dimension. We point out when these two approaches coincide and present new results for both. In particular, we present the first universality result for the random matrix theory approach and present the first result beyond uniform distribution for the free probability approach. We further show that, unexpectedly, discrete uncertainty principles play a natural role in this setting. This work is partially with L. Erdos and G. Anderson.

A study investigating the impact of stroke on neurological function has recently been carried out by investigators at University of Michigan (MI, USA). The study, which aimed to determine if there is a link between stroke and the disparities in cognitive health observed amongst elderly black and white individuals, determined that incident stroke results in a decrease in global cognition equivalent to almost 8 years of aging. These results, which were not observed to differ based on race, appear in the July issue of Stroke.
The team focused on testing both memory and thinking speed in order to examine the impact of stroke and other such ‘health shocks’ on participants’ neurological faculties. Utilizing a 27-item memory and thinking speed test, they demonstrated that incident stroke resulted in a decrease in global cognition equivalent to 7.9 years of cognitive aging.
It is as yet unknown whether the greater risk of dementia observed amongst black individuals can be attributed to the differences in acute stroke compared with white individuals, the impact of stroke on cognitive function or other factors.
Data for the analysis were taken from the national population-based Health and Retirement Study linked with Medicare data (ranging from 1998 to 2012), accounting for 4908 individuals ≥65 years of age (453 black, 4455 white). This information was then utilized to examine the difference in frequency, along with variation in the impact of stroke, among black and white individuals. Within this cohort, the team identified 7.5% of black participants and 6.7% of white participants with no recent history of stroke, dementia or cognitive impairment, who were documented as having experienced an incident stroke within 12 years of their first survey in 1998.
The results demonstrated that the impact of incident stroke on cognitive function did not differ based on race, with variations in test scores that aligned with greater cognitive dysfunction in both black and white individuals following stroke.
The rate of cognitive issues among older black individuals has previously been observed at approximately double that of the non-Hispanic white population. Past studies have focused on racial differences in socioeconomic status, access to and quality of education, as well as vascular risk factors, such as smoking, diabetes and high blood pressure as causes for the greater incidence of cognitive decline.
The authors comment that a combination of factors – comprising vascular risk factors, quality of education, and genetic and biological factors – may contribute to the black–white racial variations in long-term cognitive health among the elderly population.
“As we search for the key drivers of the known disparities in cognitive decline between blacks and whites, we focus here on the role of ‘health shocks’ such as stroke,” remarked lead author Deborah Levine (University of Michigan Medical School). “Although we found that stroke does not explain the difference, these results show the amount of cognitive aging that stroke brings on and therefore the importance of stroke prevention to reduce the risk of cognitive decline.”
Emphasizing the major impact of stroke on cognitive deterioration, this study further reinforces the importance of stroke prevention. The possible explanation for racial disparities in cognitive health observed amongst blacks and whites, however, still remains elusive.

There comes a moment where you need to ask yourself a very tough question: is my marriage falling apart? There is no shame in admitting this, especially when you think of all the years involved in building a life together. At some point, the cracks over time are surely going to lead to a break.
The misconception of a failing marriage is how it will immediately end in divorce. There’s still so much work to be done and most of the time, there is simply too much history to be just tossed aside that easily. If you’re looking for a way to avoid divorce, here are 13 ways on how to save your marriage.
- 1. Figure Out What Went Wrong
- 2. Self Reflect
- 3. Boundaries and Rules
- 4. The Return of Date Night
- 5. Touch Each Other (Surprisingly, Not Sexual)
- 6. Show Appreciation
- 7. Get Your Negativity Out
- 8. Build A Future Together
- 9. Take A Break
- 10. Keep An Open Mind
- 11. Acknowledge That You Need Help
- 12. Don’t Be Too Quick To Call It Quits
- 13. Acceptance
1. Figure Out What Went Wrong
Something that should be done both by yourself and together with your partner— sit down and draw a map of your marriage. Go right back to the beginning of how the two of you started out as a couple, what exactly made you drawn to your partner, what led to the marriage, where the two of you are now, how the two of you got here, and where would the two of you like to go from here on.
This helps take a new look at your marriage. It’s true that things have changed and will never be the same as it was, but that doesn’t have to mean it’s a bad thing. Marriages are saved when you accept that and focus on the present, working towards a better future for the two of you.
2. Self Reflect
If you thought love was anything like what the radio and television sold you, I guess you’re in for a pretty hard time. Often at times, we rely on our partner to fulfil our wildest fantasies as a substitute for happiness. When that fails to happen, we lash out at them or end up harbouring feelings of resentment towards them.
It’s time to take a breather and ask yourself; what do you rely on for your partner to do for you? Why? Was it based on what you saw your parents doing growing up? Was it because of your fave rom-com that you saw once as a teenager?
By figuring out these questions, you will be able to understand yourself and your goals better— which ultimately will lead to you having a happier marriage.
3. Boundaries and Rules
Any good relationship has a set form of boundaries that helps nurture it. Why should marriage be any different? Sure, you share each other, heart and soul— but there needs to be mutual respect and trust if you want to save your marriage when you are hopeless.
Start by drawing up a few rules in terms of the relationship when it comes to communication. This is how you can stop any name-calling, swearing, or even snapping at each other. By doing this, you are building a boundary and a safe place for the two of you to communicate without turning it into something nasty.
4. The Return of Date Night
An underrated method of saving your marriage, date nights are essential when it comes to getting to know each other again. With how busy life is and how your roles have changed (especially when children are in the picture), it’s not uncommon to forget about the person you used to be when you first started out together.
Use date night as an excuse to spend 2 to 3 hours together a week to be nothing other than each other for a while. No talk about work, the house, or anything— just the two of you.
If you need tips on remembering what that was like, check out our first dates article for a walk down memory lane. Reminisce the good times, bring up a new show that you’ve been watching, or just comment on how dinner is!
5. Touch Each Other (Surprisingly, Not Sexual)
Being one of the five love languages, the importance of touch is not something to be shunned. A way to save your marriage could be as simple as just giving your partner a shoulder touch whenever you can.
Touch is how humans feel more connected with each other, and for others, it’s a simple action that conveys how much you care for them. If your partner’s love language happens to be touch, this is all the more reason to do this.
Hold their hand whenever the chance presents itself, offer to wash their hair, give them massages, a tight hug or just snuggle up next to them. These simple actions not only make the two of you feel the rush of hormones to your head but also bring back the intimacy that your marriage was lacking.
6. Show Appreciation
Source: Thriving Marriages
When was the last time you thanked your partner? It doesn’t have to be anything in particular, sometimes we can just be grateful that they stuck around. If your partner’s love language is words of affirmation, this is something that can truly end up saving your marriage.
Start being more verbal with your communication with your partner by showing appreciation for all the little things. Text them more often— or if you’re not a gadget-savvy person, opt for the old school method and drop them a note instead.
By going all the way, your partner will notice that you’re trying to love them better and appreciate your efforts more. After all, it doesn’t take much to avoid divorce.
7. Get Your Negativity Out
So what if your marriage problems run a little deeper than just having a few misunderstandings here and there? If you think that there’s a lot more that needs to be uncovered, well, we’d recommend doing exactly that.
Take time out with your partner to fully be mad at each other. Say everything that has been on your mind, then let them dish out what you’ve served as well. What is being said may hurt the other person but it’s far better to get it all out in the open rather than leaving it to fester more.
If your problems are the kind that can’t be solved in a day, don’t worry. Marriages have decades worth of problems, so take it a day at a time. Try planning for an hour a week where the two of you just get together and rant out everything about the other person that bothers you. The sooner the both of you talk about what is troubling you, the sooner you can save your marriage.
8. Build A Future Together

So much in life has changed since the two of you got married. If the kids are already in college by now, what are the two of you working towards? Saving a marriage relies on hope at its core, which is why it’s important to believe in better days.
Even though it may be feeling hopeless, you and your partner need to sit down and talk about your vision for the future. Where do you see yourself in 10 more years to come? How will the two of you support each other? Has there been something you’ve always wanted to do?
Depending on what questions are asked, the answers you receive may genuinely surprise you.
9. Take A Break
If you’ve tried everything on this list but your partner refuses to want to save your marriage— it’s time to take a break. We know, it sounds pretty scary, but trust us when we say that this is the perfect way to avoid a divorce.
By taking a planned and structured break, you are establishing how you are taking this seriously. It’s a wake-up call that will make your partner realise what a divorce would truly mean— no calls, no texts, and most definitely no sex the entire time you guys are apart.
The period of this break depends entirely on you and your partner but we’d recommend four to six weeks so that they can really feel the bite of this silent treatment. The reason for this harshness is so that they will miss you and realise the importance you play in their life, which will ultimately save your marriage.
10. Keep An Open Mind
Source: Stuff Co NZ
When your partner comes to you and expresses their feelings that the marriage may not be working out, don’t panic. Be grateful that your partner trusted you enough to be candid with you instead of running away from the issue.
A way of saving your marriage can be as simple as keeping an open mind. Sometimes, the issues brought up are simply momentary and therefore, solving them is a way you can avoid divorce.
Pay attention to what your partner is saying. If they want to call it quits because you haven’t been as present in the marriage, it’s time to change it up. Consider all avenues that your partner might bring up as part of the problem as you never know if it could be the solution to saving your marriage.
11. Acknowledge That You Need Help
The human ego is terrifying. We would go to all sorts of lengths in order to save face, especially when it comes to something as personal as marriage. That being said, to save your marriage you must first admit that you need saving. Remember: you are not alone in this!
Most marriages fail because neither party wants to admit they need help until it’s too late. What can you save when everything has already been burnt to the ground? It’s time to notice when there’s a fire of hate stewing and get help on how to put it out. Asking for help, be it from a friend, family member, or a professional— is a huge step that can help save your marriage.
After all, there is only so much that self-help books and past advice can do. A marriage coach, couples counsellor or therapist will be able to identify both parties’ problems and help you two work it out together. This way, divorce can be postponed and by the time you’re finished with your therapy— hopefully avoided at all costs.
12. Don’t Be Too Quick To Call It Quits

When your partner comes to you saying how they feel that your marriage has issues, don’t shoot them down and abandon the nest at the first chance you get. Sure, it can be embarrassing and terrifying to hear your life partner admit to you that they feel this sacred bond the two of you share is now feeling more like a burden— but you must calm down.
The relationship between the two of you must be improved and prioritised when this happens. Think about it, have you been putting the same amount of effort into the relationship or are the two of you just living parallel lives? When you answer these questions, you will know how to save your marriage.
Perhaps the toughest one yet, a huge part of saving your marriage is accepting that it will never be the same again. A mistake that most people make is thinking that everything can be solved after going for couples counselling.
It’s okay to admit that your marriage has gone through something irreparable, it is very likely that even after your marriage is saved, you two are not just going to go back as though nothing happened.
Avoiding divorce sometimes means letting go and accepting that the relationship between the two of you is now going to be different. Take your own time with this new change, and slowly learn to embrace this new normal between the two of you.
If none of these tips resonates with you, well, the truth is that some marriages aren’t meant to be saved. It’s a good thing though because this means that you’re finally free to make your own decisions to be happy again. If you think that this is a ship that is meant to sail on its own, you might want to check out our article on signs you need to break up.
However, if you’re looking ready for other avenues for your romance, let us point you in the direction of Sugarbook! After all, we know best about keeping things discreet and with no strings attached.

Prayer: A Family’s Survival Tool
by Tina Augustus
There are so many tools that a family will need to survive. As for believers, we know that we cannot do anything without the Lord and His son, Jesus Christ! Therefore, when we pray, we should always pray to God through His Son. We ought to pray in the name of “Jesus.” We give God thanks for all He has done and for His protection. We thank Him for keeping our entire family safe from harm and danger as we continue to keep our families covered in prayer. We pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Prayer is spiritual communication between man and God. It's a two-way relationship in which man should not only talk to God but also listen to Him. Prayer to God is like a child’s conversation with his father. It is natural for a child to ask his father for the things he needs.
There are many promises in God’s Word to encourage us to pray, such as: “He shall call upon Me and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.” (Psalm 91:15); “And it shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.” (Isaiah 65:24); “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.” (Matthew 7:7). The Scriptures tell us that we are to pray for one another and also assure us that God hears and answers prayer.
When you receive Christ into your heart, you become a child of God and have the privilege of talking to Him in prayer at any time about anything. The Christian life is a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. And best of all, it is a relationship that will last for all eternity.
In my family, as young adult siblings, we would talk about our childhood memories of our Mom and how she would walk throughout the house praying for our family. At night, while we slept, she would go from one bedroom to the next, anointing our heads with oil that she received from a special prayer service at her church. This small bottle of oil was one of hundreds that had been prayed over and blessed, then given to those who attended this special prayer service to receive the oil for the purpose of using it while they prayed to God. Still today, my ninety-year-old mother holds a small bottle of oil in her hands during her prayer time.
Oftentimes siblings rarely agree upon anything. However, prayer was and still is one thing we all have agreed upon, especially the fact that all of us believe, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that our families successes, our protection, and our survival are because of the prayers of our Mom, Maxine, and our Grandmother, Nancy.
My oldest brother, Jesse, Jr., asked me to write about this topic that includes the benefits that are guaranteed to us as children of God, and His promises that have been fulfilled in our lives, because of the prayers and sacrifices that our mother and grandmother have made; and especially our mom’s continual prayers for our families. He also asked me to list all of our family members starting with Mother Maxine's children, grandchildren and then great grandchildren, to present to each family member. We’re talking about four generations! I totally agree with my brother that our mother is getting older and it is definitely time for us to take on this mantle that she has carried for many years, this legacy, and to begin praying for our families.
We are not taking away her time of prayer. We are adding to it. As a family, we pray together at most gatherings, and we pray separately during our personal time with God. However, as for intentional prayer for each and every one in our family, I cannot say that everyone participated in intentional prayer every day. Imagine the effects of just one person praying for our entire family for all of these years! Then imagine three generations praying along with her and for each other. That is powerful!
Can you imagine many families partaking in this prayer time exercise? Imagine the countless numbers of breakthroughs!

7 agreements to explore oil, gas signed in Egypt
Seven Agreements were signed to explore petrol and gas with minimum investments of $162 million during 2017/2018, an official source at the Petroleum Authority said.
The source elaborated that procedures of 10 new agreements were completed during July and August 2018, noting that 19 contracts were signed to develop the discovered fields until August 2018 in order to support the targeted plans to increase the production of petrol and gas.
He added that 98 exploratory wells were drilled to support and increase the reserves of the petroleum wealth, of which 58 wells were put on production.
According to the source, the petroleum sector succeeded in securing the market needs of petroleum products, as the average production of crude oil hit 626,000 barrels of crude oil and condensates during a year.
Minister of Petroleum Tarek el-Molla announced earlier that Egypt aims at attracting investments of $10 billion in the petroleum sector during the current year.
Molla added that the first international tender for natural gas exploration in the Red Sea will be floated very soon, pointing out that Egypt’s gas production amounts to around 6,400 million cubic feet per day.

Poor little radishes. They’ve been relegated to duty as a garnish, or, if they’re lucky, a spicy addition to a salad. But beyond that, many spend their creative juices focused on other produce. Not cool. It’s time for some radish education! Radishes are packed with flavor, nutrition and look beautiful on the plate. Pick up a bunch on your next shopping trip. You’ll be surprised by their incredible taste.
What do they look like?
Radishes are a root veggie that typically have a small, round, crimson red bulb topped with slightly-fuzzy, edible greens on top. If you’re browsing the farmer’s market, you’ll probably see a wide variety of colors and shapes beyond the standard red globe. Tip: Look for hot pink, white, yellow, purple, and dark red heirloom varieties that come in all shapes and sizes.
What do they taste like?
When eaten raw, radishes are spicy, crisp, and zesty. Varieties can range from very spicy (similar to the heat of raw garlic) to very mild. Cooking brings out the sweetness and milds the spice.
Radish greens are also edible and have a flavor similar to mild spinach. The fuzzy texture of raw radish greens can be a bit off-putting to some folks, so it’s recommending that you eat them cooked.
Why are they good for me?
As a natural diuretic, radishes are a good veggie to keep your kidneys and urinary tract clean and healthy. Radishes are also rich in vitamin C, folic acid, and fiber, all important in the prevention of cancers.
It has also been stated that radishes have special stomach-soothing properties and can help with digestion.
When and where do I get it?
Standard red globe radishes are available nearly year-round in most major supermarkets. But for the best flavor, color, and crunch, check out your local farmer’s market during late Spring or early Summer, and then again in the Fall.
Radishes are also one of the easiest and quickest producing veggies you can grow in your own garden. Plant a few radish seeds in early Spring and within 4-6 weeks (with almost no maintenance) you’ll have fresh radishes to snack on.
How do I prepare radishes?
Most people eat radishes raw by washing them well and then slicing off the greens. You can eat them whole (dip those babies in hummus) or slice them thinly to add a spicy crunch to salads. You can also roast radishes in a hot oven with a little olive oil and salt and pepper to get a sweet, delicious side dish that has a flavor and texture similar to cooked zucchini.
To cook radish greens, saute them in a bit of butter or oil until tender and wilted. Or, they work really well in soups and stews. You see radish greens used frequently in a creamy bisque (see below for a recipe suggestion).
What are some good recipes?
After you’ve gotten your fill of eating radishes raw, try out some of these adventurous radish recipes:
- Kale Salad with Radishes, Lemon and Parmesan
- Salted Rosemary Roasted Radishes
- Radish and Green Tomato Salsa
- Spring Fling Pasta Salad
- Corn & Radish Couscous
- Radish Top Soup
- Radish Green and Portabella Toasts

They even make phone calls
Surajeet Das Gupta in New Delhi |
July 01, 2005
If you have the money to splurge and are looking for some hot new functions on your phone, read on. Mobile companies across the globe are all set to woo customers with new gizmos, which go far beyond being only tools of communication.
The attempt is to create an all-in-one machine in your hand on which you can listen and download your favourite music, surf the net, shoot high quality pictures which make digital cameras irrelevant, play exciting real-time games and even check your health.
Just the thing for camera freaks. The Nokia 6680, a 3G phone, which has just hit the Indian market offers you two integrated 1.3 megapixel cameras.
The camera on the back comes with a landscape camera mode and flash while the VGA camera on the front is for video calls. So, with the camera in front, you can conduct face-to-face video calls from your phone.
It also offers a high resolution 262,144 colour display for the perfect picture. The imaging smartphone also has video-sharing capability, so you can share and view video clips in the middle of a call.
And if you want more it has settings like high-end digital cameras for night photography, brightness adjustment, image quality, self-timer, white balance settings, and colour tones.
You can also print digital photos directly from your smartphone -- transfer the photos to a compatible printer through bluetooth wirelessly or through cable.
The 6680 has other ingredients too: a Real Player Media software for listening to your music and downloading it, a 10MB internal memory and a expandable memory of 64MB.
If you are ready to wait for a while, there is more coming up from Nokia. The N-90, which has a "Four-axis 'Fold and Twist' form factor is a delight for customers looking for high quality imaging.
The phone, which is expected to hit India next month comes with a 2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics. It also offers high quality VHS resolution for video recording.
It has a 262K color display (352 X 416 pixels) and of course lots of memory space. A 3G phone, it has the usual capabilities of this category of next-generation phones.
Are you waiting for an iPOd challenger? If you're one of those who doesn't want to carry both a phone and a music player, wait for the Nokia N91, the music player integrated with a smart phone which offers you hi fi CD quality sound.
The machine has an incredible four gigabytes of memory which lets you store over 1200 songs ( that's more than an Apple mini iPod which can store up to 1,000 songs).
The phone allows to do up to 12.5 hours of music playback, and to make it easy for customers to negotiate through the music, this phone-pod offers you dedicated music keys. Nokia India is not divulging prices but since mini-iPods cost around $160, and 3G phones cost a packet, don't expect this to cost anywhere less than Rs 35,000 or thereabouts.
Motorola PEBL V6
If it's style you're looking for, wait for the Motorola PEBL V6, which is expected to hit India by August-September. Created with a smooth oval form it has an iconic oval shaped design with elegant metallic finish.
Weighing 110 grams, the PEBL comes with 5 megabytes of embedded memory, integrated VGA digital camera, voice dialling facilities, and a talk time of up to 400 minutes.
Sony Ericcson K 600i
Buoyed by the success of the P10i, Sony Ericcson has an exciting offer for business executives as well as those who want a complete phone.
The K 600i whose shipments have begun to India and will be available in the market in the next few weeks offers an amazing array of goodies: it's a 3G phone with a 1.3 megapixel camera, digital media player, FM radio and when someone sends you an e mail, it gets pushed to your phone directly (like in the case of the Blackberry -- but of course this will depend on whether your phone operators offer the service).
What's more, if you are a golf lover, the phone comes pre-loaded with a golf game with champion Vijay Singh.
Sony Ericcson Z520i
The mobile company has many other phones, which will hit the Indian market by August and September. The Z520i which was demonstrated in the Communications Asia in Singapore has many unique features: it is a clamshell phone so you can change the covers according to your style.
You can choose from eight light effects, and mix them with melodies and program your phone to get to know who's calling by the light effects and the music.Needless to say, it has a camera and comes preloaded with some exciting games.
