CBC News - Windsor - Front-yard Virgin Mary to come down
How scary it's become in our days to pray, and to have to see an image of Virgin Mary in our path...
People stop in amusement for anything and politicians are scared to death to rule because it might hurt sentiments, but when people stop to pray, then it becomes a matter of political correctness and the people is suddenly wrong, the statue must come down.
If the statue is in a private property, why should anyone force this person to bring the statue down, for fear that it might repeat Fatima or Lourdes?
If there is gathering to pray, or for that matter, criticize; aren't the people in their right to do so. Cannot anyone just kneel in any sidewalk and pray? Maybe people should start being questioned about what they do when they stop and look at things while in the boardwalk... Might they be praying? Anything but that!
I remember being in the path of people like Jack Layton when in front of the CBC while their workers when on strike, the whole sidewalk was taking by this character that needed his point to be make interfering in a labor dispute while being an actual member of Parliament.
I remember too Stephen Harper, annoying everyone because he had gone to an interview, I believe with Peter Mansfield at CBC and the whole traffic was disturbed.
Who can forget the Tamils on the streets of Toronto, upsetting everything, even if peacefully and wait, only a couple of weeks ago, the city of Toronto had to stop because the Don Valley Parkway was interrupted so that some event took place.
I guess the real problem here is praying, that is what is going to cause major problems at any time anywhere... yes, like in Fatima or Lourdes. The authorities just must act upon and restore 'peace'

That "pre-clearance" requirement was put into the 1965 law to ensure that redistricting or other changes to voting practice do not act as a hurdle to minority voting rights. Shelby County's case challenges the constitutionality of these requirements.
"It would be wonderful to say that we have progressed past the need for protection under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act. Sadly, this is not the case," said Freshman Rep. Marc Veasey (D-Texas), who cited evidence from two years ago in his home state.
"Overt, racially discriminatory tactics were used to isolate and suppress hundreds of thousands of minorities for the purpose of political gain by current partisan leaders of my state," he said.
"Unfortunately in states like Texas, where the minority population is growing very rapidly, and their voting strength is increasing, rather than work to earn the vote of the minority citizens, state leaders would rather suppress voters through racially discriminatory tactics."
Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-Texas) said the last election showed that racial discrimination is a "persistent reality" in her state, which justifies Section 5.
"If every state would prove to the voters that they are willing not to discriminate, there would not be the need, but that has not happened," she said. "Even states not covered have had difficulty allowing minorities to express themselves.
"I have been victim of discrimination through redistricting and cracking and packing and every other technique than can happen in redistricting. Until we and this country can guarantee that voters will be handled fairly, there's no way that we should be talking about doing away with Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act."
Rep. Sheila Jackson LeeSheila Jackson-LeeDem wants hearing after United passenger dragged off flight Members jam with Wynonna Judd, Keith Urban at Grammys on the Hill Dem rep: Trump WH, conservatives are attacking black women MORE (D-Texas) said Houston, Texas, continues to report cases of voter abuse, and said decisions such as whether to eliminate certain school districts still need to be reviewed at the federal level.
"This is no time to eliminate pre-clearance," she said.

A unit vector field X on a Riemannian manifold determines a submanifold in the unit tangent bundle. The volume of X is the volume of this submanifold for the induced Sasaki metric. It is known that the parallel fields are the trivial minima. In this paper, we obtain a lower bound for the volume in terms of the integrals of the 2i-symmetric functions of the second fundamental form of the orthogonal distribution to the field X. In the spheres , this lower bound is independent of X. Consequently, the volume of a unit vector field on an odd-sphere is always greater than the volume of the radial field. The main theorem on volumes is applied also to hyperbolic compact spaces, giving a non-trivial lower bound of the volume of unit fields.

Scotland's Parliament voted Wednesday to reject the government's decision to free Lockerbie bomber Abdel Baset al-Megrahi from his life sentence and return him to his native Libya. The vote symbolized widespread disdain for the terrorist's release, but it was not an attempt to topple the government.
By a 73-50 vote, the Scottish Parliament rejected a government bid to gain an endorsement of its decision to free al-Megrahi, a former Libyan intelligence who was convicted in the 1988 attack on a Pan Am airliner that killed 270 people — mostly Americans.
The government had asked the parliament to endorse the decision as "consistent with the principles of Scottish justice." But the legislators backed an opposition amendment condemning Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill's decision as mishandled — and saying they disagreed with the government's action.
On Tuesday, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown faced accuations of "double-dealing" after confidential documents were released revealing that Libya was told Brown wanted the Lockerbie bomber to die a free man.
Foreign Secretary David Miliband defended the report in a BBC interview and confirmed details that emerged in the documents but adamantly denied that the government took any active steps to secure convicted bomber Abdel Baset al-Megrahi's release.
"We did not want him to die in prison, no, we weren't seeking his death in prison," Miliband said.
Documents released by the Scottish government on Tuesday included the minutes of a meeting with Libya earlier this year during which it was stated that Bill Rammell, then a foreign office minister, told Tripoli that neither the prime minister nor Miliband "would want Mr Megrahi to pass away in prison but the decision on transfer lies in the hands of the Scottish Ministers."
But Brown insisted Wednesday that he didn't strike any deal with Libya over the return of al-Megrahi, who was convicted in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, which killed 270 people — mostly Americans.
"There was no conspiracy, no cover up, no double dealing, no deal on oil, no attempt to instruct Scottish ministers," he said.
The British government released the documents Tuesday in an attempt to quell speculation that it had pushed al-Megrahi's release to boost economic cooperation with Libya. But the documents fanned more resentment in the U.S., where al-Megrahi's release was vehemently opposed.
The government had previously refused to be drawn into the issue, saying it was up to the government in Scotland to decide on justice issues.
Al-Megrahi, 57, was the only person convicted in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, which killed 270 people. Scotland freed him on compassionate grounds Aug. 20 after doctors said he had terminal cancer.
Opposition leader David Cameron immediately seized upon Miliband's remarks, demanding an investigation into the controversy.
"The prime minister and the government stand accused of double-dealing — saying one thing to the Libyans in private, refusing to express an opinion to the British public and indicating something else to the Americans," Cameron said. "That is why we need an inquiry to clear this matter up."
Britain has regional governments in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland that are responsible for local issues but retains power over foreign policy.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown has said the decision to free al-Megrahi was Scotland's. He will now face increased pressure to say how he viewed Scotland's decision — a stand he was been reluctant to take because of domestic political pressure to keep regional issues separate from the national ones.
Al-Megrahi was sentenced to life in 2001 with a minimum term of 27 years. Releasing prisoners on compassionate grounds is a regular feature of Scottish justice for dying inmates.
Relatives of al-Megrahi told the Associated Press Wednesday that he was rushed to an intensive care unit after his condition worsened.
"He is in a bad way. He is unable to speak to anyone," a Libyan official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters.
Anger has been percolating on both sides of the Atlantic since al-Megrahi flew home to a hero's welcome in Libya.
The families of some American victims have said they were disgusted by the bomber's release, which was also sharply criticized by President Barack Obama, FBI director Robert Mueller and Attorney General Eric Holder.
U.S. Justice Department spokesman Richard Kolko said Tuesday that his department had "received assurances in the 1990s that al-Megrahi's full sentence would be served in Scotland."
The American statement seemed to contradict some of the released documents, including one from Britain's Foreign Office that said there was no categorical commitment given to the United States to keep al-Megrahi jailed.
During debate in the Scottish parliament Wednesday, Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill said he had received "conflicting advice" from officials in London on what assurances Britain had given Libya and the United States.
"I still do not know the exact nature of the pretrial discussions or what may have been agreed between the Libyan and U.K. or any other governments," he said.
American victims' families reacted with fury to the disclosures.
"The fix has been in for a while," said Bob Monetti, whose 20-year-old brother Richard from Cherry Hill, N.J. was among those killed. "The U.K. has put incredible pressure on Scotland to do this thing, and they finally caved in."
As the more than a dozen documents dated between 2007 and 2009 were released, Libya marked the 40th anniversary of the coup that brought Col. Muammar al-Qaddafi to power — an extravaganza meant to celebrate the return of the former pariah state into the international fold after terrorism.
The disclosures followed claims in the British media that the British government struck a deal with Libyan authorities to include al-Megrahi in a prisoner transfer agreement because that was in Britain's best interests as a major oil deal was being negotiated.
Britain has growing economic interests in Libya — from oil exploration to financial services. Last year, British imports from Libya topped some $1.6 billion.
But the British government has repeatedly denied its role in the release and said there was no pressing commercial deal.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.


Malcolm Optics Off-Set Plate with 1/2" 60 Degree Base
The Off-Set Plate with 1/2" 60 degree base is designed for the Malcolm 3X and 6X short scopes only.
If you need more clearance for the hammer to mount your Malcolm short scope and a specialized mount is overkill, this is the solution!
You will need two of these bases (one for rear mount and one for front mount) to side offset the Malcolm short scope. Measuring 1/2" tall, these mounts move the scope a 1/4" to the left, enough for proper clearance, but not so much that the shooter is uncomfortable.
These mounts are drilled for 8-40 screws (not included), sold individually, and can only be used with an octagon barrel.

‘This Morning’ hosts stunned by 80-year-old’s graphic sex admission
Can you say that on brekkie TV? Two UK morning TV hosts were taken aback when an 80-year-old guest went absolutely rogue.
British morning television hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield were stunned when an 80-year-old got very graphic about sex with her 35-year-old Egyptian toyboy lover.
The This Morning hosts were left gasping, The Sun reports, as Iris Jones opened up about their first time in bed together on the show, saying: “It was pretty rough. We used a whole tube of KY Jelly.”
“The thing is, I couldn’t walk the next day. I felt as if I’d been riding a horse. Saddle-sore wasn’t even it. Anyway, we got over it.”
Holly and Phil were seen looking utterly stunned, with the hosts holding their heads in shock before collapsing into laughter.
The hilarity continued later in the show, with 38-year-old Holly setting Phil again off by joking about Iris’ reference to KY Jelly, saying: “Other brands are available.”
Viewers were in hysterics too, with one tweeting: “PLEASE tell me I’m not the only one watching this 80 year old woman with her toyboy on #ThisMorning right now.”
Another asked: “What did I just hear?!?”
Iris Jones, 80, met Mohamed Ahmed Irbriham, 35, on Facebook before flying to Cairo to take their love affair to the next level.
The pensioner is now preparing to fly back out to Egypt to the knot, having said he makes her “feel like a virgin again”.
The former cleaner divorced from her ex-husband four decades ago and the pair have two children Steve, 54, and Darren, 53.
Iris says Darren has raised concerns the toyboy is only after her money but insists their relationship is true love.
She said: “If he’s marrying me for my fortune he’ll be sadly disappointed because I live on a pension.
“He’s even said he’ll sign a pre-nup because it’s me he wants – not my house. I’ve spent years making other people happy, now I just want to marry the man I love before I die.”
Household names in the UK, Holly and Phil are known for their lively morning show — last year, an extreme April Fool’s Day prank from Phil left Holly in tears live on TV.

I remain a huge fan of projects like LRO, and personally still believe that the disbelievers are crackpots but I also have to admit to being a little underwhelmed by the photos listed here on NASA's site for the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.
Still, I'm excited "we're" (go NASA) going back, and if anything this just really highlights for me how damn big our "little" moon is. Easy to forget that the satellite that's taking those photos is still 50 kilometers! away from the surface, so somewhat understandable that we're not getting the close ups I'd love to see.
There is a pretty cute video of the LRO launch party here (check side bar) that is worth checking out. The highlight for me was seeing the communications in action, the laser ranging support for the data coming from LRO looks like a large robot with big green blinking eyes.
Congratulations and good luck LRO team, if you can now just convince Sarah then your mission can surely be called a great success.

A magnitude 6.1 earthquake jolted the waters southeast of Sarangani town, Davao Occidental Wednesday morning, days after a 6.8-magnitude quake hit the province on Friday.
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the epicenter of yesterday’s tremor, which was tectonic in origin, was 79 kilometers southeast of Balut Island.
Intensity 2 was felt in General Santos City, Glan, Alabel, Malapatan, Malungon, Kiamba, Tupi, Tampakan, City of Koronadal, and Tboli.
Intensity 1 was felt in Polomolok, Surallah, Lake Sebu, South Cotabato, Maasim, and Maitum.
The municipality of Glan in Sarangani was placed under a state of calamity following last week’s magnitude 6.8 earthquake in Mindanao.
Glan accounted for 5 of the fatalities following the 6.8-magnitude quake, while nearly 20 families were displaced by huge ground fissures, Mayor Victor James Yap Sr. said.
The death toll from last week’s Mindanao earthquake rose to 11 on Tuesday, according to the Department of Health.
As of Nov. 21, DOH said there were 740 casualties reported from the earthquake.
Of this number, 689 are individuals who were treated as outpatients, while 41 were still admitted to hospitals.
Yap said they are prioritizing rebuilding some 2,000 houses in the town that sustained damage after the major quake.
Phivolcs Director Teresito Bacolcol on Tuesday reiterated his call for the public to always be prepared for strong earthquakes, as these “will be experienced from time to time.”
“We are part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, and whether we like it or not, we will experience strong earthquakes from time to time, so we really have to prepare,” Bacolcol said.

Monks demand freedom in rare Myanmar protest
Five monks staged a rare protest in army-dominated Myanmar today, witnesses said, drawing a crowd of about 500 people with calls for peace and the immediate release of political prisoners.Updated: Nov 15, 2011 16:45 IST
Five monks staged a rare protest in army-dominated Myanmar on Tuesday, witnesses said, drawing a crowd of about 500 people with calls for peace and the immediate release of political prisoners.
The monks locked themselves in a building on a religious compound in the central town of Mandalay and were using loudspeakers to spell out their demands a day after an expected amnesty for political prisoners failed to materialise.
The protesting monks unfurled banners in English and Burmese reading: "We want freedom", "Free all political prisoners" and "Stop civil war now" -a reference to the decades-long conflict between the army and ethnic minorities.
A Myanmar government official confirmed the protest was taking place, telling AFP that the five monks were from Yangon, not Mandalay.
"Local monks are trying to negotiate with them to solve the problem," he said.
No police had arrived at the scene yet, a witness said, adding that a large group of people, including many monks, were sitting on the ground outside the compound and "listening peacefully" to the protest.
The five demonstrators claimed they had enough food and water to stay inside the building for three days.
Demonstrations by monks are extremely rare in the repressive state, and mass protests led by clergy in 2007 were brutally quashed, with the deaths of at least 31 people and the arrests of many monks.
The release of all of the country's prisoners of conscience, whose exact numbers remain unclear, is one of the major demands of Western nations which have imposed sanctions on Myanmar.
Authorities had been expected to release some political detainees yesterday before President Thein Sein attends a meeting of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) regional bloc later this week in Indonesia.
But officials said the move was put off at short notice by the powerful National Defence and Security Council.

Advocacy day promotes cancer research awareness
April 13, 2019
In order to promote and advocate for cancer research awareness, the Cancer Research Advocacy Group invites cancer survivors, scholars and researchers to share their insights.
On May 17, on Cancer Research Advocacy Day, cancer survivors, researchers and scholars from all over the nation will join the campus community to discuss the significance of advocacy.
Susan Stewart, member of CRAG, said in an email that the two-year campus group will introduce themselves as cancer advocates to the campus community particularly to researchers and those interested in advocacy.
“Our mission is to advocate the human perspective to researchers, clinicians and the community that positively impacts both experiences and outcomes for cancer patients, survivors and caregivers,” Stewart said.
As a four-year ovarian cancer survivor, Stewart said she was faced with challenges to adjust to her “new normal.” With CRAG, Stewart found a group to give back to those who may need help.
With researchers and advocates from across the nation, Stewart hopes advocacy day and its lessons will support CRAG’s continuing efforts to promote impactful research with scientists.
“Face-to-face meetings with researchers and advocates at the event also provides an opportunity to identify ourselves as potential partners in the fight against cancer,” Stewart said.
Erik Nelson, assistant professor in LAS, participated in organizing Cancer Research Advocacy Day and will be speaking on the day.
Nelson said in an email that he believes that in many cases, scientific advances would not have been made without advocates. He hopes advocacy day will introduce scientists to the concept of working with advocates.
“Working with patient advocates helps us to focus our research efforts on topics that will have near-term impact on areas important to patients,” Nelson said. “On the other hand, advocates are tremendous ambassadors for the science, both in terms of informing the community of the important work that we are doing, as well as lobbying for increased spending on research.”
Another featured keynote speaker, Yibin Kang, professor in molecular biology at Princeton University, will discuss his history with breast cancer research and patient connections inspiring his studies.
“I believe there is a need for connecting the two communities, the science and the advocates,” Kang said. “This will benefit both parties in terms of educating patients about related events, but also making scientists aware of the urgent needs of patients and help focus our efforts in those that matter the most for patients.”
Kang said the event has great significance for cancer survivors advocating for greater awareness in cooperation with medical professionals, scholars and other officials alike.
“In Illinois, I think it’s a major step forward to foster closer collaborator interactions between the community working both in the research and also in the area of treatment for the patients,” Kang said.
While medical breakthroughs and public support raise awareness, Kang said he believes scientists and advocates should work together to educate the general public.
Zeynep Madak-Erdogan, assistant professor in ACES and co-founder of CRAG, said in an email that while there are many advocates passionate about cancer research, financial support becomes a barrier from acting on the matter.
“Many of the advocates cannot go to scientific meetings because conference registration, travel, hotel etc. are very costly. There are limited number of scholarships offered for advocates,” Madak-Erdogan said. “I think it is time for academic institutions to start supporting advocates and making them an integral part of the cancer research ecosystem.”
Emphasizing the importance of advocacy, Nelson said Cancer Research Advocacy Day is one of many steps CRAG will take to increase the presence of advocates in cancer research.
“Although there is an increased emphasis on advocacy, there can always be more. This is definitely the case for advocates working with scientists,” Nelson said.

Santa Clara Valley water resources have something common with rivers in south India.
The Santa Clara Valley basin allows very little rain water to percolate into the huge underground aquifer. There is hard clay right beneath the basin surface. Water engineers have therefore built most of the recharge ponds and dams around the edge of the valley which has sandy gravel.
The surface in catchment areas of rivers like Kaveri in India turned hard after the trees there were cut. Rain water has not reached the aquifers for the past 2-3 decades. This causes rivers to dry up quicker after the moonsoon rains.
Smart geologists have now designed recharge wells with the help of satellite images in river catchment areas. Hardworking volunteers have built thousands of recharge ponds with the help of villagers in the catchment areas of 33 rivers in south India over the past few months. This is smart work!
Support River Rejuvination work! Sponsor a recharge pond and bring back the water into the aquifers. Join the fund raiser for River Rejuvination work on May 19th at ICC, Milpitas, CA. The fund raiser event is being organized by OVBI.

In this paper we present a novel method, based on diffractive optics, for measuring M2. This novel optical arrangement consists of a lens along with a set of 1 or 2 distorted diffraction gratings and a single array detector. As a result, this system produces simultaneous images of a number of different object planes centred over the laser beam propagation axis symmetrically to the laser beam waist. This image is gathered around the image plane using a CCD camera producing, in a single image and after some image processing, an instantaneous measurement for the laser beam quality. This technique allows for the possibility of monitoring the beam quality in real time, in a continuous or pulse-to-pulse mode operation. Nowadays, high power laser machining is a standard technique in manufacturing material processing that is widely used in industry. Although these lasers are not always stable for long periods of time, which is required in this kind of process, it usually takes considerable time to diagnose them and restore them to working order. The M2 parameter is a numerical expression for laser beam quality that can be measured in real time over a process line. However, to measure the M2 parameter, several measurements in the neighbourhood of the laser beam waist are required.

Eight novellas on 8th National Reading Day
A record number of people attended the National Reading Day to mark the centenary of Polish independence. Hoping to repeat the success, the presidential couple invites all lovers of the Polish language to join the reading. This Saturday, all Poland will read eight novellas by most eminent Polish writers to celebrate National Reading’s 8th anniversary.
The National Reading has been organised by the President since 2012. The campaign started by the common reading of Adam Mickiewicz’s “Pan Tadeusz”, a Polish national epic, which was intended to bridge the gaps between Poles in the hard times of partitions. Over the next eight years, we have read works of the absolute canon of Polish literature: several pieces by Aleksander Fredro, “The Trilogy” by Henryk Sienkiewicz, “The Doll” by Bolesław Prus, “Quo Vadis” by Henryk Sienkiewicz, “The Wedding” by Stanisław Wyspiański. In the jubilee year 2018 we read “The Coming Spring” by Stefan Żeromski and the works from the “Anthology of Independence” selected to mark the centenary of Polish independence.
The event promotes book reading, fosters common heritage and universal values, and the presidential couple’s choice this year reflects these goals. Out of 100 proposed literary pieces, President Andrzej Duda and his wife Agata Kornhauser-Duda chose eight novellas by Polish male and female writers of the 19th and 20th century: Maria Konopnica, Eliza Orzeszkowa, Bolesław Prus, Władysław Stanisław Reymont, Henryk Rzewuski, Bruno Schulz, Henryk Sienkiewicz and Stefan Żeromski. “The common denominator of this selection is the Polish identity blended with universal content and insights into an individual and society. Their concise form followed by exquisite style and vividness leave an indelible impression on the readers’ minds. (…) I am sure that because of its plentitude, everybody will be able to join in and contribute to this project. Besides the promotion of readership, this project proves that the beauty of Polish literature has the power to unite us around common goals and values,” wrote President Duda in his letter.
As every year, the project brings together schools, libraries and public institutions, including diplomatic missions, which traditionally invite famous Polish artists to take part. Similarly, the main location will also be the Saski Garden in Warsaw, where the presidential couple will inaugurate the reading of Polish literary masterpieces. They will be broadcast online all over the world via the Polish Radio.

I have to store data using a Perl CGI script with an Apache 2.x Ubuntu server. I wish to access-lock that data to become only RW use of Apache (or even the Perl script), and not be accessible from an URL.
One option would be to set up a database. Let me avoid that dependency and keep data in unique filenames (this method works best for this application).
However, I am unfamiliar with a great way to configure this.
What's the configuration needed to setup a 'sandbox' directory for file IO for any webserver, without permitting an Hyperlink to that directory?
Put the directory outdoors from the document root (and outdoors of sites aliased in to the document root or any sites planned via mod_rewrite). Apache and also the Perl script will have the ability to read/email this location (because of the full road to the place with correct file permissions, obviously), but it won't be accessible using a URL.
There's an essential caveat! Files outdoors from the document root aren't directly accessible using a URL, but when the Perl script is exhibiting content in the files then you've the typical security concerns of XSS and knowledge disclosure. You'll should also give consideration to how filename "originality" or lack thereof impacts this design, e.g. a person might attempt to deliberately overwrite personal files or guess file names.


I am here with another interesting article about red dot sights. I conducted an interview session with many shooters who use red dot sight. One important thing. I observed the lack of knowledge about the working principle of red dot sights. Thus, I decided to share some important information about this. So, keep your fingers on your mouse, drag it down, go and learn red!
How Do Red Dot Sights Actually Work?
You are a fan of the famous game call of duty? Great! So am I. You may have observed a dot whenever you aim at your target. This is what the red dot sight is used for. Ever since the introduction of the red dot sight on the market. Many shooters are fond of this device due to its easy-to-use function and its low cost as well.
You can get your target quickly through this device due to no- alignment flexibility. Furthermore, red dot sight decreases your work. Now, you don’t have to set a sight picture with the rear aperture than the front sight post and your target. You can simply aim at your target by placing a reticle. This is alluring I know.
As you know red dot sight can work fine within close range. However, if the distance increases, you can use it with a magnifier. I know you have to buy one more thing, but it is worth it!
What is the Working Principle of Red Dot Sight?
Before moving towards the principle, I would like to share an informative video about red dot sights.
The device design is very simple. It can be used in a simple way and surprisingly it has the simplest working principle as well. Do you remember the old magical trick? The one which was known as Pepper’s ghost? The red dot sight works in the same manner. It uses plates and lights and magic appears.
Mr. Howard Grubb who was the Irish telescope builder patented the first red sight in the early 1900s. Moreover, the red dot sight was used in World War two as well.
Red dot sight uses a battery to light LED. The LED when lighted reflect green or red light on the concave lens. This reflection thing creates a reticle for you. The reticle is on one plane so there is no need for alignment. You can see your reticle but the person on the other side cannot see where the reticle is. This is how a red dot sight works.
You can measure the size of the red dot in MOA. The aperture present at the front of the LED usually controlled it.
Red dot sights are available in two different styles. For a closed sight, you can find another lens at the tube front to save the LED from dirt and fog. Another style is open reflex sight. In this style the parts are open to the environment thus you can expect a cut down in the sight picture.
When it comes to holographic sight you can say that is the improved version of red dot sight. The holographic sight works by guiding the laser along a sequence of mirrors inside the sight. This helps in reducing parallax. Furthermore, the holographic red dot sight works fine if the lens is slightly broken.
What are Different Types of Red Dot Sights?
The two important types of red dot sights are:
Generally, a red dot sight comes in a form of tube designs for big-size firearms. This type of optics comes with 2 to 3 MOA size of the red dot, and a 25mm aim lens. Furthermore, this type of optics works best in close to moderate range.
As I have mentioned earlier, you can increase the power of a typical red dot sight by using a magnifier.
When we discuss red dot sights miniature red dot sights are the most to discuss. Due to its small size, it can easily fit on pistol sight and backup sight.
As the technology world is moving forward miniature red dot sights are getting smaller. Thus, becoming an ideal device to use with CCW.
Common Questions About Working of Red Dot Sight:
- Does red dot sight work effectively at night?
A red dot sight is a tool that works effectively at night and during lighting. Just assess the environment first. Then buy a red dot sight with a night vision. Adjust the sight brightness. This is enough for a good shot at night.
- What is the difference between the red and the green dot sight?
Red dot sight is more common than green dot sight. In general, it is a fact that the red color draws more attention. It is the reason that every stop sign uses red color. However, it causes eye strains as compared to cooler and peaceful green. If you are a shooter who shoots bullseye targets at range. Then you should choose green dot sight to shoot accurately.
Red dot sight is a simple tool but has loads of benefits. Military men and cops are now using it for essential purposes. This means that red dot sight will always be present in the weapon market.
You are now aware of its working principle. I am sure you will be able to answer correctly if someone questions about red dot sights. If you still have some questions, you can use the comment box below. I will be delighted to clear your thoughts.

Author Nancy Gerstein is a yoga teacher and entrepreneur who previously released the book Yoga’s Guiding Light, a manual providing 74 brief yoga class lesson plans. Gertstein’s current release, Motivational Yoga, is also aimed at yoga teachers. In this new work, Gerstein again offers lesson plans for yoga teachers, this time providing 100 different options of varying lengths plus five additional plans intended as outlines for yoga workshops.
The lesson plans in this book are organized into a total of 17 chapters. Early chapters cover yoga practice basics, including Beginning Lessons, Breathing Practices, Asana (physical practice), Salutations in Motion, Prana (energy), Pranayama (breath), and Motivation. The next few chapters introduce yogic philosophy with Yamas, Niyamas, and Chakras. This is followed by a focus on the themes of Mindfulness, Lessons from the Heart Center, and Emotions. Finally, Gerstein presents information relevant to specific types of settings in the chapters on Workshops, Yoga for Special Populations, Practices for Home and Office, and Guided Relaxation.
The format is consistent for every chapter and individual lesson. Each chapter opens with a quote from the Buddha. The components which make up the lesson plans include Intention – Lesson – Asanas for Deeping – Motivation Off the Mat – Wise Words – Teacher Tip (occasionally included). The plans are accompanied by black and white photos that illustrate all of the poses included in that outline. An example of this format is “Morning Gratitude Meditation,” which is found under the Motivation chapter. The Intention of this practice is “to feel grateful for your life.” The Lesson section, written as a script that the teacher can offer the class, includes a gratitude meditation. There are seven postures listed under Asana for Deeping, including Warrior II, Humble Warrior, and Supported Savanasa. One idea listed in the Motivation Off the Mat section is to keep a daily gratitude journal. Wise words offers additional wisdom related to the theme plus another Buddha quote, and finally, the Teacher Tip suggests dedicating the class to someone who has been inspirational. Some of the plans have as few as four postures, while others, especially those which contain vinyasa flows, have as many as 8-10, with numerous poses comprising the flows.
The workshop outlines are significantly longer, providing additional details—for example, duration and props needed. There is information on how to open the workshop, elements such as journaling prompts, and numerous “Workshop Wisdom” reflections to supplement the Teacher Tips. In the book’s Glossary, Gerstein offers pronunciation and translation of many Sanskrit terms. She also provides a Recommended Reading List as well as an Asana Index.
I am a yoga teacher myself, and I enjoy planning my classes around themes. Gerstein’s prior offering, Yoga’s Guiding Light, has been one of the most helpful books I have found for this purpose. Upon receiving Motivational Yoga, I was surprised to see just how similar it is to Gerstein’s last offering. As noted above, Motivational Yoga contains more lesson plans, and the book is longer overall (343pp as compared to 235pp for Yoga’s Guiding Light), with four additional chapters added (Motivation, Workshops, Yoga for Special Populations, and Practices for Home and Office). The format, while expanded in this new work, is almost exactly the same. For both books, the lesson plans do not really offer a complete outline for a full 60-90 minute yoga class. I have found Gerstein’s ideas extremely useful as a foundation for my own planning, and yet I’ve generally needed to supplement her lessons with additional poses of my choice.
In the end, I think that Motivational Yoga is an excellent option for assisting and inspiring yoga teachers in developing themed yoga classes. For those unfamiliar with Gerstein’s work, I would suggest that owning both of her books is not necessary, as the more comprehensive information provided here is likely to be an ample source of wisdom.

A man with an unusual name has been found guilty of a terrible crime.
President Pimping Austin Sr., 21, was sentenced Monday to six years in prison after being found guilty of domestic assault and whipping his young son with a TV cord.
The charges against Austin came to light last December when his two children, ages 4 and 2, were taken to the Children’s Hospital in St. Paul, Minn., by their grandmother, who noticed whipping injuries on the 2-year-old's buttocks, legs, stomach, and genitals, WCCO-TV reported.
Investigators contacted the children's mother, who told the officers she had a restraining order stemming from a time when Austin assaulted her after he saw her cell phone and thought she was talking to another man.
Police noticed injuries to the woman's side and her head, Oakdale Patch reported.
The woman told authorities that Austin then took the child into the bathroom and started hitting him with an AV cord jack.
Cops say that after the beating, Austin asked the boy's mother if a "ding-ding" can get swollen, CityPages.com reported.
Washington County Attorney Pete Orput said the court granted a motion asking for the maximum sentence for the malicious punishment charge and to run the felony domestic abuse sentence consecutively.
"This type of conduct is totally abhorrent to all of us," Orput told KSTP-TV. "We are very satisfied that the judge handed down consecutive sentences so as to properly reflect the magnitude of the harm done by this defendant."

|Abstract:||The inter-comparability of the stability measurements of organic photovoltaic (OPV) technologies in dark is addressed. Four primary factors that affect the reproducibility of the ageing rate determination and inter-comparison are discussed: production/encapsulation of the samples, current-voltage (IV) characterization, testing conditions for ageing and lifetime determination from a decay curve. Results of inter-laboratory ageing studies of roll-to-roll and spin coated samples with correspondingly flexible plastic packaging and glass encapsulation tested under dark test conditions among 7 laboratories are presented. ISOS test conditions, proposed recently as guiding protocols for testing OPV stability, are applied in the study. The reproducibility of the performance versus the production and encapsulation techniques is firstly studied. The results reveal a significant improvement in the reproducibility when going from manual spin coating to roll-to-roll production. Furthermore, the reproducibility of current-voltage (IV) measurement and preconditioning (light soaking treatments) are addressed. Additionally, the inter-comparison of the degradation rates of the samples tested under three different dark test conditions (ambient, dry/heat, damp heat) reported by different groups are analyzed revealing a reasonable agreement on the degradation rates of the stability curves for each test condition. Finally, a logarithmic diagram for OPV lifetime associated with common time units is proposed that allows conveniently categorizing and intercomparing the stability performance of different samples tested under different test conditions.|

In London, a real-estate scam puts millions of pounds up for grabs, attracting some of the city's scrappiest tough guys and its more established underworld types, all of whom are looking to get rich quick. While the city's seasoned criminals vie for the cash, an unexpected player -- a drugged-out rock 'n' roller presumed to be dead but very much alive -- has a multi-million-dollar prize fall into...

Both Tom Hardy and Gerard Butler have played characters who are horribly deformed and cover his face with a mask: Butler as the title character in The Phantom of the Opera (2004) and Hardy as Bane in The Dark Knight Rises (2012).
People ask the question... what's a RocknRolla? And I tell 'em - it's not about drums, drugs, and hospital drips, oh no. There's more there than that, my friend. We all like a bit of the good life - some the money, some the drugs, others the sex ...
The two "Chechnyans" would more likely be veterans of the Russian Army who have served in Chechnya. This is because actual Chechens would speak the Chechen language rather than Russian.

Community ENTerprise Linux Operating System (CentOS) is a community-driven free software effort focused on delivering a robust open source ecosystem around a Linux platform. It is an enterprise class operating system supported by the community and released back in 2004. It is also referred to as the replica of Red Hat Enterprise Linux which is considered as the most widely used in the corporate Information Technology world.
Why should we use CentOS?
- CentOS is a very stable, predictable, secure and free Linux operating system. It’s one of the most deployed OS on the server and most stable operating systems out there.
- CentOS comes with 10 years support. That’s huge, especially for enterprise software. They also come with stable ABIs meaning that packages built today with will still run 10 years from now.
- CentOS is updated no more than twice a month. That means stable and more up to date software than Debian Stable for example.
- CentOS is always released with a LTS Linux kernel.
- Upgrades are pretty stable so you most likely won’t need to reinstall or perform major upgrade from scratch in existing instances.
- You can run CentOS in a multitude of architectures including x86-64, POWER 8 and 64-bit ARM.

The Irish Government has announced an extra once-off public holiday this year. It will fall on Friday 18 March 2022. This once-off public holiday is in place to recognsie the efforts of the general public, volunteers and all workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, and in remembrance of people who lost their lives due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In 2023, Ireland will have a new permanent annual bank holiday in February to mark St. Bridget’s Day. The public holiday will be the first Monday in February, except where St Brigid’s day (1 February) happens to fall on a Friday, in which case that Friday 1 February will be a public holiday.
There are now Ten Public Holidays recognised in Ireland:
1st January: New Years Day
17th March: St Patricks Day
18 March: Day of Remembrance and Recognition
Movable Date: Easter Monday (18th April 2022)
The 1st Monday in May: May Day (2nd May 2022)
The 1st Monday in June: Previously known as Whit Weekend (6th June 2022)
The 1st Monday in August: August Holiday (1st August 2022)
The last Monday in October: Oiche Shamhna (31st October 2022)
25th December: Christmas Day
26th December: St Stephens Day
Good Friday is a bit of a strange one, for some companies treat it as a National Holiday and others don’t, as it is not an official Bank Holiday. It is a Public Holiday in Northern Ireland only. In 2018, the prohibition of the sale of alcohol on Good Friday was lifted. Banks also close on Good Friday. (So does KennCo!) It falls on Friday April 15th 2022, this year.
Origins of Bank Holidays
We all love our Bank Holidays and with the brighter evenings and the summer approaching, we have three days to look forward to in May, June and August. So we’ve decided to take a quick look at the history of how our Irish Bank holidays came about.
Until 1834, the Bank of England observed about 33 saints’ days and religious festivals as holidays, but in 1834 this was reduced to just four: 1 May (May Day), 1 November (All Saints’ Day), Good Friday and Christmas Day. In 1871, the first legislation relating to bank holidays was passed when Liberal politician and banker Sir John Lubbock introduced the Bank Holidays Act 1871, which specified the days in the table below.
England, Wales & Ireland
New Year’s Day
Whit Monday (June)
First Monday in May
First Monday in August
First Monday in August
Boxing Day/St Stephens Day
Under the Act, no person was required to make any payment or to do any act upon a bank holiday which they would not be required to do on Christmas Day or Good Friday. At this time, Ireland was still under British Rule, so we also benefited from the official bank holidays. This was also a time when workers were not entitled to the current 20 minimum day’s paid annual leave, and for some, may have been the only days apart from the weekends when they got off work!
The act did not include Good Friday or Christmas Day as bank holidays as they were already recognised as common law holidays since before records began. In 1903, the Bank Holiday (Ireland) Act added 17 March, Saint Patrick’s Day, as a bank holiday for Ireland only.
In 1939, the Oireachtas passed the Holidays (Employees) Act 1939 which designated the public holidays like Christmas Day; St. Stephen’s Day; St. Patrick’s Day; Easter Monday; Whit Monday and the first Monday in August. The Holidays (Employees) Act 1973, replaced the Whit Monday holiday with the first Monday in June. New Year’s Day was not listed in the Act but was added by Statutory Instrument in 1974. The October Holiday (Halloween) was added in 1977. The first Monday in May (commonly known as May Day) was added in 1993 and first observed in 1994.
We hope this information is useful to you, and you enjoy all your summer Bank Holidays, and while you are it, you might raise a glass to Sir John Lubbock who started the Bank Holiday Ball Rolling.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- After salt supplies ran short last winter, Iowa's state and local governments say they're stocking up this fall to avoid misery on highways and city streets.
The Iowa Department of Transportation says it has about 180,000 tons of salt in storage for the state's 9,000 miles of highways. Last year, shortages forced state workers to ration and shift supplies to meet demand.
In Des Moines, the public works department will allow snowplows to use more salt instead of sand, which doesn't melt ice and clogs sewers.
National demand for salt skyrocketed a year ago, and winter didn't disappoint with strong snowfalls in November and December.
Declining demand this year has led to lower prices.

The painting are of poor quality, there is nothing very special to see. No pictures inside the Temple. You have to be barefoot even if the soil is more than hot, so my poor feet were burned after the visit.
I would recommend walking/driving past and quickly stopping in while in Nadi. Keep in mind you must wear respectful clothing - women must cover their shoulders and wear long skirts/sarongs covering their legs. Clothing requirements are apparent in most religious temples/churches which is as expected....More
Must wear Skirt/Dress below the knees (no pants, shorts or mini skirts allowed), If you do go in short close they will provide you a sarong to wear.
No pictures can be taken inside the temple.
The temple is colourful and friendly but compared with those of south east Asia it's pretty disappointing. It seems well maintained. If you visit Nandi take a walk down the main street and at the southern end you will find it (at the start Queens...More

Hello , Sorry i was there mid week and it was very quiet, I gater Sunday would be quite busy. I think your hotel or resort would be able to assist with times. Is certainly a very colourful temple.

i need help,im doin a activity for school and i need some help on which way is the easiest way (taxi,bus ect) to travel from the Hideawy Resort to Sri Siva Subramaniya Temple and how long it will take to get there. plz help me i really need it,thank you
May 15, 2007|
Interesting school project. The temple is on outskirts of the town of Nadi and by car it would take about 50 minutes. There are definitely buses and taxis that travel along the Queens road that runs between the two, but I could not tell you which would be easier. Presumably a normal public transport bus would take much longer as it would be stopping at villages along the way. I hope this helps you.

text: So, I have posted about family issues before. Some of you may remember a thread I posted a few months ago about my mother having emotional issues, how she gets very argumentative, and how I eventually left and lived with my grandparents. Well now that things between my parents and I seemed to have calmed down, and now that we get along well enough, something else has occurred, this time with my brother. My brother is eighteen and a freshman in college, appeared to be loving the university life and claimed he was doing great in his classes. He always seemed to be in a great mood when I saw him on campus. A couple of months ago my parents found out he was stashing alcohol away in his room, apparently was drinking frequently, and even stole a significant amount of gin from my grandfather. When asked about it he insisted he wasn't drinking, that the alcohol wasn't his, and he didn't steal anything. Even though all of the evidence pointed to him, it was hard to believe he did any of that because on the exterior, he just didn't appear like a person that would be binge drinking or stealing. The matter was swept under the rug and things were normal for a couple of months. Last Friday my mother discovered that 1500 dollars was missing from her account, 500 from my sister's (who needs that money to pay for her tuition soon), and that the money was being transferred to my brother's account and quickly withdrawn. Supposedly he's been abusing prescription drugs (he was on ritalin in high school) and is doing poorly in school. My mother is distraught, and is planning on having him drop out of school, stay home with her, and work to earn back the money. I am concerned about this decision because my brother apparently doesn't outwardly show any remorse about stealing the money. I think if he stays home and is coddled (like I know my mother will), he won't understand why what he did is wrong. I am concerned that there is something psychologically wrong with my brother. I want to give my mother good advice on what to do, but I am not quite certain myself. I have a feeling he shouldn't stay at home, but at the same time if he leaves he might get worse. What should happen to my brother? You all always give me good advice. Thanks so much for reading and I appreciate any opinions you all have about this situation.

Rwanda is taking another step towards the plan to provide patients with the incurable disease a caregiver who helps them spend the rest of their life cheerfully.
More than 1000 youth who completed secondary school are set to undergo a 6-months training on palliative care to serve the incurable non-communicable disease (NCDs) patients.
This initiative of Rwanda’s Ministry of health is called ‘Home Based Care Practitioners (HBCP) Program’ started in May this year.
HBCP program offers free special treatment and companionship to NCDs patients especially those in their last days, clinically known as ‘palliative care’.
“Even if we can’t cure someone, the pain can be appeased. That’s why the HBCPs are equipped with sufficient painkillers like morphine,” said Diane Mukasahaha, National Coordinator of palliative care at Rwanda Biomedical Center.
The new social workers will join the existing 206 caregivers established at the cell level.
The caregivers who are aged between 18-35 years are trained in clinical courses including wounds dressing, pain management, physiotherapy, massage and psychological behaviors to assist patients.
“NCDs cause pain and emotional suffering that can be appeased,” Mukasahahaha said.
“A number of patients get depressed due to lack of companionship but the caregivers would help them live optimistically.”
Meanwhile, the home-based caregivers are also trained to do a verbal autopsy. They have helped identify 856 dead people who were not registered in the government’s civil registration services.
According to Rwanda’s Ministry of Health, 60% of deaths in the country go unreported in civil registration books.
Agnes Gatesi, a resident of Nyagasenyi Cell, Kigabiro Sector of Rwamagana district is diabetic. She appreciates the treatment she gets from HBCPs, saying that they have saved her money and time in hospitals.
“I used to spend long periods at the hospital and it was very hard to find a doctor because of the overwhelming number of patients always waiting to see the doctor,” she said.
At every visit, Gatesi used to pay Rwf2000.
