How much is your degree recently?
I believe you are no strangers to the greenhouse effect, and you can even tell children about it. In recent years, temperatures around the world have been rising steadily, and high temperature records have continued to be refreshed:
We must admit that the rise in global temperature is inseparable from human activities. In the face of the high temperature record set continuously in recent years, the machines in the factory still need to continue to run, and the cars are still running on the road. In the hot summer, the indoor air-conditioning can't be stopped for almost a moment.
The long-term operation of the air-conditioning system will undoubtedly cause a large amount of electricity consumption, and the electricity bill will inevitably be a considerable expense.
If you want to save electricity, you must ensure that the air conditioning or heating system runs efficiently. In addition to improving energy efficiency, you must also reduce the cold (heat) loss of the transmission system. The following aspects can be taken:
1. Choose high-quality insulation materials
Air is a poor conductor of heat, and rubber and plastic insulation materials mainly rely on the air in the cells for heat preservation. Inferior thermal insulation materials have poor resistance to water vapor and are prone to condensation, which is one of the reasons for the low operating efficiency of the HVAC system.
Inferior rubber and plastic materials
Ubisoft products use "vacuum vapor tightness" foaming technology to achieve a fully independent closed airbag "built-in" vapor barrier, which can effectively prevent the penetration of external water vapor, thereby inhibiting the decay of the initial thermal conductivity and ensuring The thermophysical properties of the material are stable for a long time, and the life span is longer.
Ubisoft's products have "ultra-fine airbag" foaming technology, which greatly improves the porosity of airtight airbags. Under normal conditions, the void gas of the closed porous foam material is similar to the static gas without convection. There is no convection heat exchange, only conduction, which can effectively reduce the cold/heat loss of the pipeline, thereby improving the energy efficiency of the HVAC system and saving electricity. Effect.
2. The installation and construction of thermal insulation materials should be fully covered
The locations of pipe connections, switches, supporting supports, etc. cannot be ignored either.
Ports, switches, supporting supports and other parts are weak links to prevent condensation. Traditional wooden pallets are prone to moisture, decay, unstable thermal conductivity, cold and hot bridges, condensation, and long-term corrosion and damage to pipelines. , Not only increased operating energy consumption, but also increased maintenance costs.
Tips：Rubber-plastic pallet or PE pallet has stable properties, is not susceptible to moisture, has stable thermal conductivity, and can reduce pipeline vibration.
3.Special attention should be paid to the joints of insulation materials
Using poor-quality glue will not only release harmful irritating odors, but also affect the air quality, and the decrease in the strength of the joints over time will also cause the joints to crack and fall off.
Ubibe Ning has "high-precision molecular non-toxic" foaming technology, outstanding green environmental protection, and meets the EU ROHS environmental certification standards. In the product design and manufacturing process, it does not contain lead, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls, Hazardous substances such as polybrominated diphenyl ethers are green and environmentally friendly. With the use of Beining "Hacker" rubber-plastic insulation special glue, the adhesive strength is high, which can effectively guarantee the vapor tightness of the thermal insulation system.
In addition, Ubisoft also has excellent fire performance: "Ultra-high standard oxygen index" makes the product performance parameters meet the national standard; "high-precision molecular ultra-low smoke" technology makes the product less dense, safer and more reliable. , Which can meet the fire protection needs of high-rise buildings and high-density areas.
Ubisoft has always been committed to providing the society with high-quality, environmentally friendly and energy-saving rubber and plastic insulation materials, so that people can feel more comfortable and happy.

Sky Crew: "Goblin" Planet Discovery Redefining Solar System
October 1, 2018, marked the 60th anniversary of NASA. It’s formation was prompted in part by the Soviet Union’s launch of Sputnik, the world’s first satellite, on Oct. 4, in 1957. And while we're still discussing whether Pluto should be a planet or not, an extreme dwarf planet dubbed “Goblin” has been discovered lurking beyond Pluto’s orbit. We find out about the upcoming planetary encounter, Ultima Thule. And we check in on SpaceX's first paying customer to the Moon.
- Mal Cameron - former astronomy and space educator at the McAuliffe Shepard Discovery Center and coordinator of its NASA Educator Resource Center.
- John Gianforte – co-founder of the Astronomical Society of Northern New Englandand astronomy instructor for Granite State College and UNH.
- Nicole Gugliucci -Assistant Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Saint Anselm College.
SpaceX first manned flight of the BFR will be carrying space-inspired art project #dearMoon hosted by Yusaku Maezawa, Japanese entrepreneur. BFR will take Yusaku and 6-8 artists on the first manned commercial flight to the moon.

Used Class 8 truck volumes were virtually flat month over month in September, up just 1 percent, according to ACT Research’s most recent State of the Industry: U.S. Classes 3-8 Used Trucks report.
Longer-term, volumes rose 51 percent compared to September 2019, and were up 21 percent when measured against the first nine months of last year.
ACT’s preliminary data also indicate average prices increased 2 percent, while average miles rose 1 percent and average age was unchanged, compared with August. Year-to-date, average price, miles and age were all lower, down 14 percent, 3 percent and 8 percent, respectively, compared with the first nine months of 2019.
Learn how to move your used trucks faster
With unsold used inventory depreciating at a rate of more than 2% monthly, efficient inventory turnover is a must for dealers. Download this eBook, “Sold! Best Practices for Moving Used Trucks,” to access proven strategies for selling used trucks faster.
“Though expectations were tainted by COVID-19, the used truck market was in decline before that. Interestingly, it is how the economy is recovering from COVID-19 that seems to be driving the surprise gains in the used truck market,” says Steve Tam, ACT Research vice president.
“Consumers have pivoted from spending on many services to spending more on goods and that has led to a very strong freight market and tightening capacity,” Tam says. “Ultimately, this leads to solidification of used truck pricing and although not as good as it was last year, it leads us to say ‘better than expected’ in the used truck market, too.”
ACT’s Classes 3-8 Used Truck Report provides data on the average selling price, miles, and age based on a sample of industry data. In addition, the report provides the average selling price for top-selling Class 8 models for each of the major truck.

PA Communications are the home of DATIS- A fully modular hand built 19″ unit either desktop standing or rack mounted.
In 2017 PA released the newest in the DATIS range model DA6U8.
The DA6U8 is a 19” 6U modular repeat announcer system primarily used in an ATC environment, controlled via local operator and ethernet TCP/IP protocol. This is the first DATIS system from PA that can be solely operated remotely from an external control facilities.
In local operation a message can be recorded into one of the two main voice stores via the headset input socket located on the from panel (Beyer DT110 headset recommended). Alternatively a message can be uploaded remotely via the ethernet sockets concatenating pre recorded speech text which is internally stored in the DA6U8 .
Operators can review online or standby messages at any point using the headset. The online voice store is outputted via a balanced 600Ω load to the TX multi combo XLR/jack connector. This can be connected to a loud speaker system or more commonly connected to a local transmitter site. The message online will continuously replay until such a time it is either taken offline or superseded with a new message. New messages can be recorded to the standby store at any point of the broadcast and does not infringe on the broadcasted audio.
DA6U8 is a lower powered ATIS solution designed to withstand long periods of operation. The PA unique power supply is extremely efficient running either at 230V AC or for remote operations 24v DC.
DA6U8 was designed in house using professional open source software and hand built at our production lab in Leighton Buzzard.

The Song Pick of the Day I’d originally chosen for today would have been Parlance, by the English three-piece In Isolation. Having read the band’s bio and listened to their tracks online, there’s no doubt that they’re children of the 80s (New Wave) and 90s (post-punk), and influenced by the[…]
Let’s end the week with the Denver, Colorado indie rock band Tyto Alba: our Song Pick of the Day Between the Lines features melodic guitar layers and and Melanie Steinway’s soaring voice. More music and a video is coming soon.
Keep Falling is one of these darker electronic songs, filled with a lot of longing, accentuated rhythms, sensual vocals and exploding with desire. Our Song Pick of the Day comes from the Canadian duo TMPL who’s about to release a new EP in the upcoming weeks. Listen to Keep Falling now:
Here’s something for the first (non-holiday) Friday of the Year: L.A. singer Rel with her last single Before The Storm, an up-to-date electro-pop song with a good deal of twists and turns – I like particularly the droning bass and the thundering beat beneath it. I’m looking forward to more[…]
Agh… I just have such soft spot for real life sound samples used in songs and Lonely Girl offers exactly that yet a few beats in, it gets sugar candy dreamy with a little edge – indie-pop at its best! The Big Sun, hailing from Oxford (UK), deliver one delicious upbeat[…]
Here is Cross Record with the first new 2016 track. It is a dark, atmospheric track that can turn even sunny beach into a haunted, barren place. Believe me, I experienced it myself when I listened to Cross Record during the holiday break. The album will be out on January[…]
Listen to “LSD” the debut single of the San Diego trio The Gloomies and any gloomy feelings you might have won’t stand a chance with this sunny and upbeat track. With its fuzzy guitar sounds, warm beats, mellow vocals and overall surf-rock feel, it is sending out waves of joy.[…]
“Vibes” by Michael McQuaid is a dark R&B track, with quite an earthy, (blues)-guitar vibe to it, and that makes for one highly interesting and also sensual combination! Michael McQuaid, a Texas native, moved to Nashville to pursue music and that’s where he comes up with this crazy cool and rather[…]

WASHINGTON: The United States on Tuesday expressed hope that Pakistan and India would continue recent peace efforts towards normalisation of relations while the State Department described as unconfirmed the Indian reports about alleged firing from the Pakistani side and deaths of five of its soldiers in the disputed region of Kashmir.
"We are aware of these unconfirmed reports and are concerned about any violence along the Line of Control," spokesperson Jen Psaki said at the daily briefing when asked about Indian claims of deaths of five of its soldiers.
Psaki said that Washington's policy on the longstanding Kashmir dispute has not changed. "We still believe that the pace, scope and the character of India and Pakistan's dialogue on Kashmir is for those two countries to determine."
"We hope that India and Pakistan will continue the steps they have recently to improve their bilateral relations."

Jefferson’s Letter to William Short
On 26 Mch. 1800 Jefferson promised William Short “a long letter containing a comprehensive view” of Short’s affairs under his management. Although he began writing the detailed epistle on 13 Apr., he worked on it, and presumably on several of the enclosures that he sent with it, “at intervals” for almost a month. After dispatching the letter, Jefferson realized that he had neglected to make a letterpress copy of the final page, dated 9 May. To correct this oversight he reconstructed the page from memory, as he had done earlier with letters written to John Adams on 28 Dec. 1796 and James Madison on 1 Jan. 1797. The concluding portion of his letter to Short touched on political subjects, as had those letters to Adams and Madison, and his effort to “repeat” what he wrote to Short “as nearly verbally” as he could is printed below as Document ii.

I saved some seeds from our agapanthus in Autumn. I have kept them in a paper bag inside a tin so they are dry and not too hot/cold as they are in the garage. When should I sow them? Do they need heat or is an unheated greenhouse OK? Any help/comments would be appreciated.
We collected seeds last year and have kept them in an envelope until April this year, I planted them in a seed tray next to some eucalyptus seeds the euc's have come up and been planted on to 3inch pots and the agapanthus are just starting to show green tips. They are kept in our open loft space, as it's south facing there is plenty of light and heat. Will now have to see how I get on as its the first time of growing these.
I sowed loads of agapanthus seed last spring form seed collected th eprevious year and stored in paper bags. Loads germinated and I potted them on when big enough to handle and gave away about 30 babies. Unfortunately, this winter I have lost all 3 parent plants and all the babies. It wasn't as cold as the previous winters but we did have a nasty cold spell after a warm patch in Feb when things got excited before they should.

brilliant article, now i know how to grow agapanthus I would never have stood a chance without this article! so you have to: a) get some seed, and then b) plant the seed wow!
No you sow seed- not plant them -you plant plants.

Touché to the pedant
I was only messing BTW
Just a word of warning that agapanthus can be a bit of a thug. I grew Headborne Hybrids from seed and then more plants from the seeds produced (takes 2-3 years before they flower.) They mature to the flowering stage fastest if the roots are restricted, but if you don't restrict them, the thick fleshy roots can take-over a large area around them. I planted one in a large (1.5m diameter) container and now nothing else will grow in there as the roots have completely filled it! Next time, I'll keep them in pots and bury the pot to the rim when planting agapanthus in borders and large containers!
Hi has anybody got a picture of agapanthus seedlings mine look like clumps of grass

The book I was expecting was something closer to a confessional memoir: a critic at the height of an illustrious career finally admitting which of his assumptions and judgments had been wrong ... Now, such a confession does shadow The Real Work and in fact may be its secret subject. But its explicit subject is more wayward and more ordinarily charming: how it might be possible to derive a general formula for mastery from a series of learning scenarios ... The result is a digressive, improvised collage of seemingly unrelated forms of expertise, and some of its pleasures are Gopnik’s excursions into professional jargon — he takes his title from magicians’ shoptalk — and techniques ... The book’s final axiom is its most profound, all the more so for also being unexpected ... The Real Work may not seem like a critic’s book about art, but its conclusion hints at a way of resolving the apparent tension between critics and artists. After all, each needs the other — in the moment of performance.
That phrase, 'the real work,' comes from Gopnik’s fascinating glimpse into the world of magic, a trade in which the normal obscurities of skill acquisition are rendered even more opaque ... Works in this book, a lot of the time, because of the fluidity and incision of his prose, his ranging interest and knowledge, his capacity for deploying profound koans with casual verve.
Via memoir, analysis and criticism he assembles a celebration of the flaws that make us human ... Gopnik is at his most moving when addressing the limited time we have on Earth; the roughly established number of heartbeats we are given to achieve whatever means most to us.

The basics of nuclear forces, isotopes, radioactive decay, fission and fusion were addressed in the physical science syllabus. In chemistry, specific types of radioactive decay and using nuclear reactions as a source of energy are addressed. Radioactive decay can result in the release of different types of radiation (alpha, beta, gamma, positron) each with a characteristic mass, charge and potential to ionize and penetrate the material it strikes. Beta decay results from the decay of a neutron and positron decay results from the decay of a proton. When a radioisotope undergoes alpha, beta or positron decay, the resulting nucleus can be predicted and the balanced nuclear equation can be written.

The popular SLx 1X prism optic from Primary Arms is now available with a green-illuminated reticle. As part of the SLx line of optics, the sight undergoes rigorous field-testing during development in order to continue Primary Arms’ reputation for innovation, reliability and value and to perform optimally in any environment. The SLx 1x20 Prism Scope with ACSS Cyclops reticle is a popular choice for a low-magnification prism scope, giving you the performance of a red-dot or reflex sight with an etched reticle that eliminates astigmatic distortion.
“We’re happy to bring a green-illuminated ACSS Cyclops reticle for fans of our SLx 1X prism,” says Terry Mears, Primary Arms’ Director of Product Marketing. “Over the last few years, we’ve seen a huge increase in demand for optics with green illumination, and our SLx 1X prism was the perfect platform for the technology.”
The SLx 1x20 prism scope with ACSS Cyclops reticle has been a best seller for Primary Arms. The large eyebox, compact body, and 9.7-ounce weight of the prism optic mimics the speed and agility of red-dot and holographic optics, and yet still provides the user with an etched ACSS reticle that is usable without batteries and does not blur with an astigmatism.
The new illumination option allows customers to choose between either a red or green reticle depending on their preferences. The green illumination stands out against warm-colored environments such as the desert sands and is easier to pick up in daylight conditions. Red reticles are excellent for heavily-vegetated areas and work well with lower-light conditions. Both color options come with 11 brightness settings and up to 3,000 hours of battery life on medium settings with a standard CR2032 battery.
MSRP for SLx 1x20 prism scope with ACSS Cyclops and green reticle is $239.99. For more information on this optic and other gear from Primary Arms, please visit primaryarms.com.

This piece is made by layering Korean mulberry paper on a wooden panel with homemade flour glue. Then I apply a glue base. Next, I draw my sketch, and trace it on the paper. Then I paint three or four layers of a background color using pigments and glue base. Lastly, I paint the subject in fine detail, which takes most of time. The painting is on a cradled wood panel with finished edges.I placed two objects that can not be seen together in real life to present the imbalances and irregularities in our world. Hate and love, good and evil, joy and sorrow. However, in my painting, the imbalance is hidden. Instead tranquility, peace, and happiness standout. I want to show the happiness and peace we continually pursue and long for, even in the middle of this imperfect world.

THE CONCEPTS OF HEALTH AND DISEASE IN THE BULGARIAN LINGUISTIC PICTURE OF THE WORLD
MetadataShow full item record
The study compares the concepts HEALTH and DISEASE as fragments of the Bulgarian linguistic picture of the world. In both concepts we find a tendency for objectivization, animalization and intensification of the characteristics, as well as connection to the paired domains LIFE – DEATH, FORCE – WEAKNESS, GOOD – BAD, UP – DOWN, WEALTH – POVERTY, NORM – DIVERSION. The image of the healthy person is controversial: he can be hard-working or lazy, clever or foolish, even dishonest and pretending to be sick. Health is an essential element of greetings and farewells, blessings and toasts, while disease is present in curses.

Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) is a revolutionary method of achieving high sensitivity sensors with very small footprints. The main idea is to use semiconductor etching processes to create complex mechanical structures that can sense mechanical signatures, and transform them to electronic form for processing. With Ridgetop’s unique blend of microelectronics design capabilities and precision sensing expertise, the firm is well-positioned for complex MEMS design programs. Ridgetop has been awarded R&D Contracts from organizations such as NASA, Defense Microelectronics Agency (DMEA) and the Naval Air System Command for highly specialized measurement requirements. Please contact Ridgetop for additional information.
Ridgetop Group has leveraged its work on several related DOD and NASA contract awards to develop a first silicon prototype of an integrated MEMS capacitive accelerometer on a CMOS die. The innovative low temperature MEMS deposition post-processing step lowers the cost of development as no changes to the CMOS process flow are required.
The sensor is part of the broader development plan for a generic sensor interface chip (GSIC) architecture that is able to accept input from a variety of transducers. The chip comprises smart sensor interface with on-chip signal conditioning, analog-to-digital conversion, data reduction and digital signal processing (DSP), and wireless connectivity.

Let's make 2020 the year we say no to plastic, or at least say no to as much plastic as we can. If you're not using reusable bags already, maybe you could try starting with just one, or saying no whenever possible. You could also start by asking companies like Mattel that use way too much packaging to tone it down.
Our oceans are polluted with over 28 billion pounds of plastic... a year. That's an incredibly sobering thought, and that plastic is polluting and killing marine life. It's also ending up in our food. Scientists predict that plastic will outweigh the number of fish in the ocean if this keeps up.
Please sign the letter above asking Mattel to reduce their packaging and share any other actions that you know of in the chat.


KBI 310141 Windows NetRemoteTOD API Call Generates Alerts When A Ping Does Not
13 Feb 2009
A customer gets alerts from a Windows API check against a server even though it responds OK to a ping command.
When using the option for Use Windows NetRemoteTOD API in the System Down and SLA Rules, this prompts the monitored server to respond to the Net Time command with the server name and time of day.
Since a Ping command only checks the NIC response, it is possible a server could respond successfully to a Ping without being able to respond to a Net Time API call.
For example, a server that is experiencing operating system issues (such as slow response or a blue screen) might respond OK to a Ping check, but would fail to respond to the Net Time API check.
Customers can test the same Windows NetRemoteTOD API check that Argent uses by running the following from the command line against the monitored server:
net time \\servername
The resulting command line response will help to determine what issue the monitored server is having, such as having a duplicated server name in the same network, or the operating system not responding, etc.

A statistical analysis is carried out by using both the European Incoherent Scatter mainland radar (called EISCAT in the following) and the EISCAT Svalbard radar (ESR) data to investigate the morphology of large field-aligned ion upflows in the high-latitude F region ionosphere, emphasizing its dependence on geomagnetic activity and latitude. By binning data with respect to geomagnetic conditions, significant differences are found between quiet and disturbed periods in the morphology of field-aligned upflows obtained by EISCAT around solar maximum: (1) the occurrence frequency on the nightside is more than 3 times higher during disturbed times than during quiet times; (2) the starting altitude of upflows lowers from 350-400 km under quiet conditions to 200-250 km under disturbed conditions; (3) the magnetic local time (MLT) distribution of the occurrence frequency of upflows exhibits a dawn-dusk asymmetry above 400 km altitude, and it favors the dusk sector under quiet conditions but favors the dawn sector under disturbed conditions; (4) the disturbed-time upflow occurrence frequency exhibits a semiannual variation above 400 km, with higher values around equinoxes. ESR observations during the rising phase of the solar cycle reveal some preliminary features of upflows in comparison to EISCAT observations: (1) the occurrence frequency of upflows on the dayside becomes significantly noticeable at about 200 km altitude, which is lower than that at EISCAT; (2) the upflow occurrence frequency above 400 km exhibits an obvious MLT distribution, with higher values during 0400-1500 MLT, in contrast to 1800-0200 MLT at EISCAT; (3) the upflow occurrence frequency above ESR is higher than that above EISCAT during 0700-1500 MLT but is lower during 2000-0200 MLT. Possible clues on the driving mechanisms of upflows are drawn from these observations.

Veteran nationalist Jane Lungile Ngwenya has died.
She was 86.
Ngwenya passed on at Mater Dei Hospital on Thursday evening where she was receiving treatment.
ZAPU acting president Isaac Mabuka confirmed the news to CITE adding that the history of ZAPU and ZPRA was incomplete without mentioning Ngwenya’s contribution.
Ngwenya was born in Buhera district in Manicaland on June 15, 1935.
She was pushed into politics when she bore witness to the harassment of her grandfather for resisting displacement and noticing the unfairness and injustice of the white’s system that totally disregarded Africans.
In 1960, Ngwenya was among the nationalists who formed the National Democratic Party (NDP) following the ban of the ANC in Northern and Southern Rhodesia in 1959.
In 1963 Ngwenya was arrested for influencing Africans to rebel against the Smith government and spent three months at the then Gwelo prison.
She was arrested again for attending a gathering addressed by the late Vice President Joshua Nkomo in Bulawayo.
She was sent to Whawha Prison and was later transferred to Gonakudzingwa detention camp.
She is one of the pioneer women and most senior nationalists to leave the country into neighbouring countries to wage the war of liberation.
During her time in Zambia, she ran a radio program at the Voice of the Revolution Radio in Lusaka where she encouraged Zimbabweans to join the armed struggle.
On January 22, 1977, Ngwenya was injured after the explosion of a parcel bomb that killed Jason Ziyaphapha Moyo in Lusaka.
In 1980 she was elected into the House of Assembly representing Bulawayo constituency and once served as a deputy minister of Labour, Manpower and Social Welfare.

Chennai, Jan 12 (BPNS)
The Tamil Nadu assembly on Thursday passed a unanimous resolution urging the central government to implement the Sethusamaudram project.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, M.K. Stalin who moved the resolution stated that the Sethusamudram project was essential to strengthen the economic development of Tamil Nadu and India. Stalin while moving the resolution said, “ This august house is of the considered view that the attempt to further delay the project by certain forces is against the interest of our national growth.”
Chief Minister said that it was a dream project of the first DMK Chief Minister, C.N. Annadurai and Kalaignar Karunanidhi had also actively taken interest in implementing the project.
The Chief Minister said that the project was included in the fourth five year plan and approved by the Cabinet meeting headed by Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. He said that Annadurai who became the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu in 1967 had wanted to implement the project and said that it would make Tamil Nadu a wealthy state.
Stalin said that the Rs 2427 crore was allocated in 2004 by the UPA government in which the DMK was part of. He said that the BJP government which was in power created hurdles when 50 percent of the work was over. The Tamil Nadu Chief Minister said, “ The late Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, J. Jayalalithaa had supported it in the beginning but later changed her stand and filed a case against the project.
He said that if the project was implemented it would have lifted the economy of Tamil Nadu and provided employment to a large number of youths, especially from the southern states.
The AIADMK and BJP however opposed to the Chief Minister’s statement on Lord Rama as fictional character . AIADMK leader, Pollachi V. Jayaraman said that Shri Rama was an avathar and not a fictional character as stated by the Chief Minister.
BJP floor leader Nainar Nagendran said that the statement should be expunged as Lord Rama was worshipped as God.
The Chief Minister replied and said that no one has criticized God and people’s faith and added that it was pointed out that faith was used to prevent the implementation of the faith.

Less than a year after the $72 million Lowell Steven Football Facilities debuted, Arizona Athletics in association with The University of Arizona Foundation is nearly ready to present the completed first phase of renovations in McKale Center.
The 41-year-old arena will get a face-lift with a proposed $80 million renovation and expansion. The first phase of the project will cost $29.9 million and is aimed at increasing both the player and fan experience at games.
“We’ve made a lot of progress and it’s really all coming together,” Vice President for Athletics Greg Byrne said. “One of the things I’m most pleased about is when you look at the money we’re investing … we’re getting a lot for the $30 million.”
Phase one comprises a new wood floor, enhanced fan amenities and seating, redone handrails in the aisles and along the perimeter of the court, aisle tread improvements, an elevator on the east side and twice the amount of concession stands, including some lining the upper concourse.
More than 8,000 blue cushioned seats have been installed in the lower bowl of the arena. However, seats in the ZonaZoo will still be plastic and alternating between red and blue.
Additionally, refurbished locker rooms, lounge areas, kitchenettes and new video rooms have been installed for both the men and women’s basketball programs. The east side of the arena will be fully built out to accommodate new restrooms and concession stands.
The addition of about 150 new seats will bring McKale Center’s total capacity to around 14,700. The arena is set to be completed by Arizona basketball’s Nov. 14 season opener against Mount St. Mary’s. However, it will be ready for teams to start practicing in beginning the first week of September. McKale Center will be open to the public for the first time during Arizona volleyball’s home opener on Sept. 5.
Byrne said that Arizona’s annual red-blue game, which kicks off the unofficial start of basketball season, would be hosted in the newly renovated McKale Center on Oct. 18. But capacity will be diminished to around 10,000, however, as construction will still be going on.
Suzy Mason, the senior associate athletic director of event management and facilities, said that finding the funding necessary for the renovations has been a three-year work in progress with both quiet phases and active recruitment of donors.
Tucson residents Cole and Jeannie Davis contributed the lead gift for the project with a generous $6 million donation last December, and longtime Arizona basketball supporter George Kalil pitched in $1 million this past spring. A former player who was not revealed has also pledged money to support the project.
At this time, the renovations do not include any new naming rights, sponsorships or signage opportunities, but Mason added that an improved Digital Antenna System for greater Wi-Fi and service is a notable goal on the list for future phases of renovations. James Francis, senior associate athletic director of external operations, said while he can’t speak for the student-athletes, from the general feedback garnered, the coaches and teams seemed really excited for the new facilities, state of the art equipment and space.
“I’m really looking forward to seeing the energy in the arena this year,” Mason said. “What I’m excited about is to blend our very avid fan base with all the new stuff and to see the reactions. My hope [is] that every single seat we have will be a full sellout for as many games as possible.”

British scientists have discovered a threat to the world that may be a result of global warming.
An international conference on climate change has been told that a massive Antarctic ice sheet, whose collapse would raise sea levels around the world by more than 5m, and which has been assumed to be stable, might be starting to disintegrate.
Researchers from the Cambridge-based British Antarctic Survey are measuring remote points in the West Antarctic Ice Sheet where they have recently found ice to be flowing out into the sea at the enormous rate of 250cu km a year.
This discharge alone is raising global sea levels by a fifth of a millimetre a year.
Professor Chris Rapley, the survey's director, told the conference at the UK Meteorological Office in Exeter that their discovery had reactivated worries about the ice sheet's collapse - which only four years ago were firmly dismissed.
He said: "The last report [by the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change] characterised Antarctica as a slumbering giant in terms of climate change.
"I would say that it is now an awakened giant. There is real concern."
He added: "The previous view was that the West Antarctic Ice Sheet would not collapse before the year 2100. We now have to revise that judgment. We cannot be so sanguine."
Collapse of the sheet would be a disaster for the whole world, putting enormous swathes of low-lying, desperately poor countries such as Bangladesh under water.
The conference has been called by British Prime Minister Tony Blair as part of Britain's efforts to increase the pace of international action on climate change.
Blair has asked it to explore the question of just how much climate change the world can take, before the consequences are catastrophic for human society and natural ecosystems.
It heard several alarming warnings of possible climate-related catastrophic events, including the failure of the Gulf Stream, which keeps the British Isles warm, and the melting of the ice sheet covering Greenland.
But it was the revelations of Rapley, head of one of the world's most respected scientific bodies, which were the most dramatic, as they reopened a concern which many scientists assumed had been laid to rest.
Antarctica as a whole is land covered by very thick ice, but the ice sheet covering the eastern half of the continent is very stable as it sits on rocks which are well above sea level.
Worries about the ice covering the western half first surfaced more than 25 years ago when it was realised that there, the base rocks are actually well below the level of the sea.
In some circumstances, it was feared, such as a melting of the edge of the ice sheet because of rising temperatures, sea water could get under it and eventually lead to its collapse.
The dramatic discharge into the Amundsen Sea completely opened up the whole debate, Rapley said.
It had only been recently discovered because the area was so remote. But British scientists, with United States logistical help, had now established a base in the area to investigate further.

Identification of Numerically Accurate First-Order Takagi-Sugeno Systems with Interpretable Local Models from Data
Andri Riid, and Ennu Rüstern
Department of Computer Control, Tallinn University of Technology, Ehitajate tee 5, Tallinn 19086, Estonia
The paper deals with the interpretability problem of 1st order Takagi-Sugeno systems and interpolation issues in particular. Interpolation is improved by a corrective secondary model – essentially a black box – complementing the primary (interpretable) model. Optimization technique for this two-model configuration is developed. Experimental results indicate that the approach achieves a better accuracy-interpretability tradeoff than methodologies currently in use.

The FOEN monitors water levels and water quality in rivers, lakes and groundwater bodies. It is legally responsible for protecting water from pollution and overexploitation, and it develops measures designed to reduce the risk of flooding as far as possible.
Water is used for a wide variety of purposes - for drinking, sanitation, irrigation, power generation, in trade and industry, for transporting treated wastewater, and for navigation, sport, fishing and recreation. This intensity of use poses risks for waterbodies, in terms of both quality and quantity. Integrated water resources management seeks to reconcile the diverse requirements and to promote sustainable development.
GEWISS, Switzerland's information system for bodies of water provides a brief introduction to the diversity of topics and information concerning water and bodies of water.
Integrated water management
Water management covers all human activities relating to the use of water, protection of water and protection against the hazards of water. Integral water management attempts to harmonise these three main objectives.
Further information on water
Data collection and foundations
- The FOEN operates and oversees various monitoring networks and is thus in a position to provide current information, long-term data series and comprehensive overviews of flow rates, water levels and water quality for lakes, rivers and groundwater bodies.
Flood protection / natural hazards
- Switzerland is frequently affected by flooding and other natural hazards. Run-off measurements are used for flood prediction and spatial planning measures help to reduce or even prevent damage.
- Thanks in part to the expansion of wastewater treatment facilities, water quality has been substantially improved in Switzerland's waterbodies. However, ongoing efforts are required to control pollution and prevent other forms of damage.
- More than 80% of the country's drinking water is sourced from groundwater bodies. Numerous lakes and rivers are used for hydropower generation, and there is a need to ensure that adequate residual flows are preserved. Fisheries are dependent on good-quality surface waters.
- The FOEN is committed to sustainable management and integral protection of groundwater. It monitors, documents and evaluates the status of groundwater at national level and provides instruments to safeguard groundwater resources.

The ageing process of the human skin is a complicated biological process that is not entirely understood. The cause is two separate biological processes. The first is intrinsic or natural ageing, a non-preventable process that can affect the appearance of the skin, in the same way, similar to how it affects other organs in the body. Another is extrinsic aging resulting from exposure to environmental influences, mostly ultraviolet (UV) radiation, sometimes called photoaging. Ageing of the skin may also cause moisture loss on the skin. The primary molecule that is involved in the loss of skin moisture is Hyaluronic Acid that has a unique ability to bind and hold water molecules. This article outlines information on Hyaluronic Acid’s role in the process of ageing skin.
What is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a popular and well-known ingredient in cosmeceuticals and skincare products. Hyaluronic acid can be found naturally in connective tissues, the skin, eyes, joints, and muscles. It gives shape to skin and heals tissues, and lubricates joints. The most significant amount of hyaluronic acid found in our body is on the skin, and it is a vital part of the extracellular matrix that is the gel-like layer that covers your skin cells. The most popular proteins, collagen, and elastin are also part of Hyaluronic acid, along with other glycosaminoglycans. Hyaluronic acid doesn’t only function as a chemical surrounding the skin cells, and it is essential to keep the skin well-hydrated. Hyaluronic acid pulls water from the dermis and then transports it to the skin’s surface, which is the epidermis. As you get older, the levels of hyaluronic acid in your skin naturally drop off, and your skin can’t produce it as efficiently as it did in the past. This is one reason why your skin is thinner and less supple as you age. The levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin begin to decline at 40.
Relation between Hyaluronic Acid and Aging
Hyaluronic acid plays a significant role in the skin’s ageing process. Aging inhibits the ability of cells to generate HA. The skin becomes dry and looser, which leads to wrinkles and other significant changes. The process of aging is also connected with a loss of moisture. It was demonstrated that hyaluronic acid is a natural element that is found in every part of the body. In a 70 kg person, there are 15 grams of hyaluronic acid, of which 5 grams are supplied every day. Hyaluronic acid is continuously and naturally replenished due to its rapid degrading process. However, its renewal tends to slow down with the onset of age and external assaults.
Thus, it is essential to take action as early as possible to ensure a healthy hyaluronic acid turnover like that of youthful skin to avoid the signs of aging. Concerning its effects on the surface level, it’s well-known that hyaluronic acids are integral to the skin cell signalling process and can influence the extracellular matrix’s stability. It is known that Hyaluronic acid is a factor in the growth of keratinocytes, which help protect the epidermis from ageing. Hyaluronic acid is utilized in cosmetic formulations due to its elastic properties. In addition, the D-glucuronic Acid unit provides antioxidant properties to hyaluronic acids. In addition, Hyaluronic acid impedes the growth of skin cells by utilizing the CD44 receptor, and it is also a potent anti-inflammatory for the skin.
How do you include Hyaluronic Acid for the Face?
As we are aware of the significance of Hyaluronic acid in the anti-aging properties for skin, the ingredient must be a part of your daily skincare routine to avoid the appearance of ageing skin. The most effective method of including Hyaluronic acid into your skincare routine is using Hyaluronic acid serum. The concentrations of serums are intended to penetrate your skin more quickly and efficiently than creams since moisturizers don’t dilute them.
What Should I Look For In Hyaluronic Acid For Face?
Hyaluronic acid is a great ingredient. However, not all serums containing hyaluronic acids that are available are created in the same manner, which means they will not do the same job. Below are three essential components of a high-quality Hyaluronic Acid serum that you should be searching for:
Many Hyaluronic serum contains just 0.25%-1.75% hyaluronic acid. They may be beneficial for skin hydration, but they’re not likely to be very effective since the concentration is negligible. When the amount is excessive, it may remove water off your face, which isn’t in the interest of the serum to hydrate. A concentrated and effective hyaluronic acid for your face is essential.
A well-balanced concentration uses the water molecules in the serum to hold them in place, ensuring that your skin remains hydrated and looks great. The concentration of hyaluronic acid in serum should be less than 2.2%.
2. Molecular Weight
A mix of lighter, medium-weight, and heavier molecular forms of hyaluronic acid can give us what we want from a hyaluronic serum: a powerfully hydrating agent that will make us look great right now, improve the health of our skin, and make us look younger in the near future.
3. Other Ingredients
Certain hyaluronic acid-based serums only contain water and hyaluronic acid. Although this combination is safe to use by itself, it’s not the best choice. Here are some of the ingredients which can help make a serum containing hyaluronic acids transform between “acceptable” to “fantastic”:
D-Panthenol (B5): D-Panthenol has been proven to be effective in preventing dry skin issues since Panthenol has exceptional moisture-boosting properties. D-Panthenol is renowned for its hydrating ability, which assists in keeping your skin hydrated and well-nourished. D-Panthenol helps replenish the lost moisture and has soothing effects on sensitive and itchy skin. D-Panthenol is an excellent source of nourishment and moisturizer for your skin. It helps make your skin soft, firm, and plump, diminishing wrinkles and fine lines.

This article appeared online at TheNewAmerican.com on Monday, May 20, 2019:
The millennial generation, also known as Generation Y (GenY), the “Me Me Me Generation” (Time magazine), and the “soccer trophy generation,” is suffering financially, and as a result many are listening to the siren song of socialism to solve their problems.
This is the generational cohort born between 1981 and 1996 (Pew Research’s definition) with more people in it (75 million) than the Baby Boomer generation. They also have less accumulated wealth, own less real property, are marrying later, and having fewer children than any other generational cohort (Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, GenXers, or Generation Z). As a result they are more frustrated and unhappy about their future economic prospects.
All of which have long-term political and economic implications stretching out decades into the future.
Millennials are helping drive down the number of births to their lowest levels in 32 years. Translation: fewer future workers to help support Social Security and the myriad other government welfare programs. Their average net worth of $92,000 is 40 percent lower than that of GenX (ages 39-54) and 20 percent lower than Baby Boomers (ages 55-73).
One-third of millennials own homes compared to half of GenXers and Baby Boomers at similar ages. Forty percent of them are carrying massive student debt ($48,000 on average) and significant credit card debt ($10,000+). Nearly two-thirds of them are living paycheck to paycheck, and many aren’t covered by health insurance (premiums are too high) and are deciding instead to “go naked” and take their chances about incurring medical costs.
Millennial Money, an internet blog written by millennials for millennials, reports that they have major financial concerns. In descending order they are: paying off their student loans; paying their day-to-day living expenses; buying a home; saving for retirement; paying for healthcare; saving for college for their own children; and caring financially for their aging parents.
A new study from Experian, the consumer reporting company, reflects that generation’s duress: Millennials have the lowest average FICO credit score of all generations, including Generation Z (ages 7-22).
Part of their financial duress comes from an accident of history: Many grew up under and following the effects of the Great Recession (2007-2008). Part is their increasing detachment from permanent and eternal values as they are measurably less religiously “observant” than their predecessors.
Their wages have largely stagnated and their wealth has improved only slightly despite the comeback in stock prices since the end of the financial crisis. That’s because so few of them have the means to purchase stocks and those who do have witnessed the impact of the stock market decline on their parents following the real estate crisis and are keeping their savings in cash.
This has led many in the cohort to plan on winning the lottery or on family inheritances to bail them out.
Millennials feel, as James Chen (director of trading and investing content at Investopedia) notes, “they will not be able to achieve [their] life goals, such as finding their dream job, buying a house or retiring until much later in their lives than previous generations did.” As a result, added Chen, “Gen Y tends to be progressive in their political views and voting habits.” This was confirmed by a Gallup poll conducted last summer that discovered that millennials favored socialism over capitalism, “a 12-point decline in young adults’ positive views of capitalism in just the past two years and a marked shift since 2010 when 68 percent viewed it favorably.”
The Wall Street Journal put the matter well: “Tough times for millennials struggling to reach a more comfortable middle-class life have triggered support for populist candidates and promises of universal health care and free college education.”
The siren song of socialism is increasingly attractive to many millennials overwhelmed by their financial circumstances and who are willing to seek an easy way out by shifting their burdens onto someone else.

Like Battlefield 3 before it, Battlefield 4's launch hasn't exactly been graceful. If our baseline metric for grace is a lithe, ethereally beautiful swan, then BF4 thus far has been said swan getting squashed into a writhing mass of meaty chunks by a thousand levolutions. Bugs, glitches, crashes - you name it, BF4 has grappled with it on PC and consoles. DICE, unsurprisingly, is aware that its flagship shootyblam has issues, and has - in the wake of new issues stemming from the China Rising DLC pack - dedicated its full developmental force to making the game, you know, work.
An EA rep made the startlingly all-encompassing statement to IGN, explaining:
"[We are] not moving onto future projects or expansions until we sort out all the issues with Battlefield 4. We know we still have a ways to go with fixing the game – it is absolutely our #1 priority. The team at DICE is working non-stop to update the game."
"We know many of our players are frustrated, and we feel your pain. We will not stop until this is right."
When questioned about how this will affect Mirror's Edge 2 and Star Wars Battlefront specifically, the rep was a bit cagier, but reiterated that the team currently has all hands on deck for the sole purpose of fixing Battlefield.
Which is a bit outrageous, really. I mean, I absolutely appreciate the sentiment (the state of the game is inexcusable, but better late than never), but upwards of 300 people on bug fixes? Really? I find that notion difficult to swallow. Generally speaking, that's not how game development works. At some point, globbing handfuls of people onto a project like it's some kind of macaroni art monstrosity becomes highly inefficient. Dev teams are made up of many people in many roles. Bug squashing is only a single part of the process - albeit an extremely important one.
I've reached out to EA for clarification on that point, which issues DICE is targeting first, and a few other specifics. I'll post an update as soon as I hear anything back.
