Station Saint-Lazare - Claude Oscar Monet. 54.3x73.6
Claude Monet (1840-1926) - an outstanding French painter, the main figure of impressionism.
Returning from London, where Monet was forced to leave after the tragic events of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871, he settled near Paris, on the banks of the Seine. In January 1877, the artist returned to a small apartment and studio nearby Station in Saint-Lazare. Unexpectedly, the theme of several paintings was this industrial area. At the Fourth Impressionist Exhibition, which opened in Paris in April of that year, he presented seven works on the theme ... of a railway station.
It seemed that what could be common between impressionism and steam locomotives at the station? It turns out (Monet showed this miraculously), the most prosaic things can embody amazing poetry. Therefore, everything depends not on the image object, but on the subject writing it, not on what is selected for the image, but on who looks at it and how it embodies. It is noteworthy that almost at the same time, another great creator - J. Bizet - wrote the opera Carmen, the scene of which was ... a tobacco factory.
I must admit that the locomotives in these Monet paintings do not look like monsters, but, one might say, gracefully, although everyone at that time was captivated by the feeling of strength, power and speed of these gigantic machines. It is no coincidence that one of the earliest works - the painting by W. Turner “Rain, Steam and Speed” - was also inspired by this image and circle of thoughts. Nevertheless, both at the time of Turner and under Monet, society believed that this topic was far from art. After a century and a half, the viewer is probably more able to appreciate their artistic value than contemporaries of the master.

Trelleborg’s brand new Barometer Report found that 29% of those surveyed feel the industry is lagging behind when it comes to implementing upgrades to port infrastructure to accommodate increasing vessel sizes.
Trelleborg (TMS) has surveyed the marine industry for its annual Barometer Report since 2010 to examine challenges, opportunities and key issues that the industry is facing, and how they evolve year to year. This year, the report takes a look back over the last five years since 2010 to see how attitudes to investment, maintenance and quality have changed over time.
The report, which calls on the views and experiences of 200 port owners, operators, contractors and consultants revealed that over half (54%) of the respondents did not think port infrastructure is adequate to keep up with the onwards logistics requirements of increased vessel sizes and their capacities.
This paper aims to ascertain whether upgrades to port infrastructure are being implemented quickly enough, and how existing technologies can be used more effectively to realise efficiency improvements…

Scotland’s largest teaching union is to take on the battle to save music tuition for pupils.
Larry Flanagan, general secretary of the Educational Institute of Scotland, (EIS) says “catastrophic” budget cuts to local authorities have resulted in a “postcode lottery” of who is entitled to lessons with some music teachers saying annual charge of over £500 are being discussed.
More than two-thirds of Scotland’s councils charge for music tuition, with fees rising.
Clackmannanshire Council voted to double music tuition costs. With some exceptions, parents will now pay £524 annually.
Delegates at the EIS annual general meeting in Dundee next week, will discuss a motion from its Midlothian local association, calling for instrumental music provision to be protected in schools.
The EIS has previously expressed concern about a dramatic fall in the number of music teachers – from 1,100 to 640 over the past decade.
Larry Flanagan, EIS general secretary, said, many parents were unable to afford the tuition fees and that a Scottish Government school music initiative offering 12-hour “taster sessions” was detrimental to talented pupils from poorer families who were subsequently left unable to afford tuition.
“Our position is that the cuts that have been imposed on these services during a period of austerity budgeting, and the increase in charges levied to families for music tuition, have contributed to a significant erosion of music in schools and place them at risk of extinction.
“EIS members who teach instrumental music are now reporting catastrophic cuts and outrageous charges; we are hearing of annual charges of up to £524 per pupil being mooted; and music services losing up to ten full time equivalent staff in the most recent budget round.”
Mr Flanagan added: “The Scottish Government is quick to cite its support for the Youth Music Initiative. This initiative, while positive, it is no substitute for properly resourced local authority music services.
“It generally offers twelve hours of learning on one instrument, serving as a taster for music education. It is a travesty that children who show interest and ability during these taster sessions are being denied access to fully-funded instrumental music services in the longer term, or excluded by unaffordable charges.”
Iain Gray, MSP, Scottish Labour’s education spokesman, said: “Music tuition is a key part of learning and has been proven to help children learn at school.
“Access to music tuition for pupils across the country is therefore essential - but the reality is SNP cuts to council budgets, totalling more than £1.5billion since 2011, are making this impossible across many local authority areas.
“Scottish Labour supports EIS’ call to protect music tuition across the country - but the SNP government must provide the additional funding to pay for it.”
Tavish Scott, Scottish Liberal Democrat education spokesperson said: “Music and the arts should be integral to Scotland’s education system. The ever tightening squeeze on local authority finances is pushing children away from discovering or pursuing these talents and that cannot be right.
“Every child should have the opportunity to take up an instrument or a paint brush and the Scottish Government needs to ensure that music and art is available in every school.”
A Scottish Government spokeswoman said: “Music tuition is of enormous benefit to young people and the Scottish Government is actively providing leadership to encourage participation in music.
“Local authorities are directly responsible for spending on music tuition in schools. Overall funding to councils is increasing in real terms, despite continued UK Government cuts to Scotland’s resource budget.
“While respecting the autonomy of local councils, Scottish Ministers have committed to working in collaboration with partners to find solutions that help ensure instrumental music remains accessible to all.”

A large south metro-area youth soccer club, Colorado Storm South, would like to expand its play fields to Centennial's Potomac Park, which is currently under a master planning process to determine what will happen to the vacant property.
Heather Vidlock, principal planner for Centennial, said the city acquired the roughly 40 acres near Dove Valley Regional Park at South Potomac Street and East Fremont Avenue in 2011. It used to belong to the United States Postal Service, which supposedly was going to build a distribution center, but never did.
The soccer club wants to convert the space at Potomac into about eight to 10 AstroTurf fields. Storm already own the Gates Sports Complex at East Arapahoe Road and Jordan Road, which has 13 fields, and the club uses the eight fields at Dove Valley Regional Park. Still, the organization has gone from 1,000 kids in the early 1990s to 4,200, saidMarc Francis, president and general manager for Colorado Storm.
"It's the growth, plus the fact they will be turf fields and not grass fields," Francis said. "We can only utilize the grass fields for about eight to nine months a year."
He said the organization spends close to $1 million on irrigation annually.
The organization is circulating a petition in an effort to convince the city to give it the property. One of the alternative plans for the property includes a turf-field complex with about 10 multi-purpose turf fields and a sports stadium.
"With turf fields they can put lights on the fields, which we can't do on the grass field," Francis said. "There's no advantage of putting lights on the grass fields."
He said Colorado Storm South also has to contend with other youth sports organizations that want access to the fields Storm already uses, not to mention the new property at Potomac. Francis said they would likely share the fields with other organizations, such as lacrosse and football leagues.
Steve Trittschuh, director of coaching for Colorado Storm South, said acquiring fields at Potomac Park will be a boon to the economy because it would mean regional and national tournaments could be held there, which would bring 20-30 teams and revenue for local hotels and restaurants. He said those big events normally take up 20 or more fields and it's hard to have the capacity for events year-round with only grass fields.
"If we can have that many fields it won't just help Storm out, but other organizations and affiliations down here," Trittschuh said. "I just think if you can put that type of complex there then I think it will benefit (the area) economically."
Other proposals for Potomac Park include a sports complex with four baseball fields, six multi-purpose fields and four volleyball courts; an open space natural habitat; a green sports complex with a community garden, three multi-purpose fields, a playground, four volleyball courts, four basketball courts, five tennis courts and a sports stadium; and a community park with an outdoor pool, community garden, four basketball courts, a dog park and five tennis courts.
Vidlock said these are just proposals and the process isn't over yet. She said the city is still collecting feedback from the community.
She said several people said at a recent open house that "it would be nice to have a mix of different facilities however it's developed so you could have it open to a variety of sports organizations and be open to the public as well."
She said staff will pursue the master planning process for the next couple of months and round it out with council feedback, at which point it will be put on hold until they get direction from council.

I’ve always loved the look of pergolas – beautiful wooden structures that make any garden more stylish and somewhat practical. After all, they provide some shade. I wish pergolas offered more protection against the elements, but we can’t always have what we want (or so I thought!).
If you too love the idea of a pergola, then read on. Could a retractable roof pergola be the answer? Retractable roof pergolas are modern versions of traditional pergolas that have a retractable roof which can open, close or tilt, depending on the weather –but are they really worth it?
To deep dive into retractable roof pergolas, I’ve partnered up with Designer Shade Solutions Australian Retractable Roofs Sydney, retractable roof specialists. The team at Designer Shade Solutions work closely together with homeowners to create bespoke modern shade solutions that meet any design and function requirements.
Make the most out of your garden
With a modern pergola that allows you to enjoy your garden no matter the weather, you will be encouraged to spend more time outside, and thus, will make the most out of your outdoor space. Imagine being able to be outdoors rain or shine? Count me in! I would love to enjoy my outdoor space all year round. Plus, it would be the perfect space for guests to socialise outdoors.
Seamless indoor to outdoor transition
This article on Country Living mentions that the “Inside Outside” trend is really picking up, explaining how “the inside outside garden trend is all about creating flow from your inside space to your outdoor space, so one naturally flows into the other. The garden should feel like an extension of the home. Both your interior and exterior design must work in harmony.”
Retractable roof pergolas fit right in this trend! By installing these modern pergolas as an extension to your home, you will have a seamless transition from indoor living to outdoor living. Retractable pergolas can also be installed as standalone structures in outdoor spaces, depending on what you are looking for – I can imagine a retractable pergola in our garden as a lovely centrepiece.
Fully customisable pergolas
“Add comfortable seating, lighting and heating to create the perfect outdoor retreat.” says this article on Sims Life. These innovative pergolas are fully customisable to match your property style and your function needs. You can add lighting, heating and even side glass screens to completely create an all-around covered pergola that perfectly balances the fabulous outdoor views with the comfort of an indoor space.
As Sparkles and Stretchmarks says, “If you are searching for something to make your garden stand out, these modern pergolas are a must.” and I couldn’t agree more. I think that retractable roof pergolas sound like they are really worth it. What do you think?

In this article we will discuss about the function of stomach.
1. Temporary storage organ:
It acts as a temporary storage organ. Because of this, the frequency of eating is reduced.
2. Secretory function (Fig. 5.9):
It secretes HCl and pepsin apart from other things including mucus. The G cells of pyloric region secrete gastrin hormone which is one of the GI tract hormones.
3. Digestive function is because of pepsin enzyme. It is a proteolytic enzyme.
4. Protective function is because of high acidic medium due to presence of HCl, many of the microorganisms die. Thereby it protects the GI tract from getting invaded by the microorganisms.
5. Hemopoietic function is because of the intrinsic factor which is secreted by gastric glands. Intrinsic factor is essential for absorption of vitamin B12 in the ileum region.
6. Absorptive function is also one of the functions of stomach. Some amount of water and alcohol is absorbed in the stomach region.
Motor Functions of Stomach:
The movement of stomach serves important objectives namely:
1. It enables the stomach to act as a temporary reservoir of food.
2. The movements of stomach converts solid food into a fluid paste called chyme and delivers this in small quantities to duodenum for proper digestion in small intestine.
Anatomical basis of gastric motility:
The movement of stomach depends on the arrangement of smooth muscle in the wall.
The arrangement is as follows:
a. Outer longitudinal muscle layer.
b. Inner circular muscle layer.
c. Oblique muscle which is inner to the circular muscle layer and restricted to upper part of stomach.
d. The muscularis mucosa present in the submucosa.
All the muscles are supplied by vagus and sympathetic fibers.
Innervation of Stomach:
It is through the right and left vagi. The preganglionic fibers arise from the dorsal motor nucleus of vagus in medulla. The ganglia are found in myenteric and submucosal plexus. Postganglionic fibers are very short and supply mucous membranes, gastric glands and muscles.
i. Left vagus supplies anterior aspect of stomach
ii. Right vagus supplies posterior aspect of stomach
iii. The efferent fibers are secertomotor to the stomach. Vagus also contains afferent fibers which carry afferent impulses from the stomach to the medulla.
Stimulation of efferent vagi supplying the stomach increases the volume of gastric secretion which is rich in HCl, pepsinogen and also increases the contraction of the gastric muscles. This enhances the peristaltic contractions in stomach and hence emptying of the contents of stomach.
Sympathetic nerve supply are from lateral horn cells of T5-T10 segments of spinal cord. These are preganglionic fibers. Few of them synapse in the ganglia of the sympathetic chain while most of them synapse with cells of celiac ganglion. The postganglionic fibers accompany the arterial supply to the stomach.
Effects of sympathetic stimulation on gastric secretion are not definite. Indirectly, it diminishes gastric secretion by reducing blood flow by bringing about vasoconstriction. It is also known that sympathetic stimulation causes an increased alkaline mucoid secretion from the glands. Like vagus sympathetic nerves also carry efferent and afferent fibers to and from the stomach.

Coordinate surfaces of the conical coordinates. The constants b and c were chosen as 1 and 2, respectively. The red sphere represents r = 2, the blue elliptic cone aligned with the vertical z-axis represents μ=cosh(1) and the yellow elliptic cone aligned with the (green) x-axis corresponds to ν2 = 2/3. The three surfaces intersect at the point P (shown as a black sphere) with Cartesian coordinates roughly (1.26, -0.78, 1.34). The elliptic cones intersect the sphere in taco-shaped curves.
Conical coordinates are a three-dimensional orthogonalcoordinate system consisting of concentric spheres (described by their radius r) and by two families of perpendicular cones, aligned along the z- and x-axes, respectively.

This theme of God knowing me in my mother’s womb, forming who I am, numbering the hairs on my head, and choosing me before I ever came into being is consistently coming up in my prayer lately, and calling me to recollect my own dignity and purpose, but also that of all people.
When I start to think about these truths, I start to see each life as God’s chosen masterpiece. All actions against life like abortion, the death penalty, suicide, prison injustice, violence, and extreme poverty -- reveal why anything not in support of life is evil.
It is ending a life that God chose for His purposes. It is cutting short His plan. It is not allowing that person to give their gifts to the world, to participate in the building up of His kingdom, and to receive God’s good blessings.
He knew us in our mother’s womb. He knows every part of us...the good, the bad, the ugly. Every one of us He willed into being with a purpose and a unique set of gifts and talents. He’s the Divine Parent. The Divine Artist. Sculpting and molding us into His Masterpieces.
That sculpting and molding takes time and an active life journey, and that’s why we stand for life. Because we believe that everyone has the right to take that journey, to walk with God, be His canvas, and come to know and grow into the chosen Masterpiece they are.

6 According to marine ecologist Richard Thompson, 40% of the plastic products made every year are …………………….. that we then discard.
7 The three R’s Dan mentions stand for …………………….. , …………………….. and …………………….. .
8 Kate thinks she’s very lucky because she has all her plastics and glass collected …………………….. .
Dan: Hello. I’m Dan Walker Smith and today I’m joined by Kate.
Kate: Hello Dan.
Dan: Now today Kate and I are talking about pollution. So I’m going to start the show today with a question, Kate; have you ever heard of the ‘Great (0) Pacific Garbage Patch’?
Kate: No, I’m afraid I haven’t; I’ve never heard of that.
Dan: Well let me explain: Garbage is an American word for something we’ve thrown away. What we in the UK might call rubbish. And the Pacific Garbage Patch is an area of the Pacific Ocean where rubbish has collected. It was discovered in 1997, and is essentially a (1) big floating soup of plastic garbage and bits of rubbish that have been thrown away on land and have ended up in the sea.
Kate: Ooh that sounds absolutely horrible. I had no idea that anything like that existed.
Dan: Well this is the bit which is really scary: we don’t actually know the size of the garbage patch, but some people say it could be 600,000 (2) square miles across –which is twice the size of France.
Kate: What? Twice the size of France? That’s absolutely huge!
Dan: And it could be bigger.
Kate: That’s very frightening. Now plastic pollution in the seas kills over a million sea birds and (3) 100,000 mammals and turtles each year.
Dan: So here’s the Dutch marine biologist Jan van Franeker talking about the effects of plastic pollution on birds.
Worldwide, there’s so many bird species that have litter in their stomachs. It varies from pieces from (4) bottles or toys, parts from fishing nets, from ropes. Any sort of plastic really that is broken up and is floating around the ocean.
Kate: OK, so the plastics they’re finding aren’t just things that might have been thrown into the sea, like fishing nets and ropes, but are actually things that have come from the land, like pieces of bottles and children’s toys.
Dan: Apparently 80% of all the plastic found in the ocean is actually litter that’s been (5) thrown away on land.
Kate: And part of the problem is that most plastics aren’t biodegradable.
some plastic bags could last in the environment for up to a thousand years.
Kate: Let’s hear the marine ecologist Richard Thompson talking about plastic packaging.
I think we need to think very, very carefully about the way that we use plastics in society. If we think that 100 million tonnes of plastic products are made every year, 40% of those are (6) packaging materials that are mainly used once and then discarded.
Dan: OK, so 40% of the world’s plastic is used as packaging material and then discarded. To lower the amount of plastic waste, scientists recommend the ‘three Rs’ for packaging. We can (7) reduce the amount of packaging used on products; we can re-use packaging more than once, and we can recycle the materials used.
Kate: Do you recycle, Dan?
Dan: I’m actually very lucky, because where I live in London has a great recycling programme. So essentially every week we’ve got someone who comes round and collects all the paper and all the plastic and all the glass that I’ve used that entire week, which is fantastic.
Kate: Oh that sounds great, you’re really lucky. Actually I’ve got the same thing: I have all my plastics and glass picked up (8) outside my house, so I think certain places in the UK are doing quite well on the recycling front.
Dan: And even if you can’t recycle, just try and reuse or reduce the amount of waste that you’re going to be producing. So from all of us here, thanks for listening, and goodbye!

No Products in the Cart
If you've already picked your place to adventure to this summer, we have some of the essentials you will need to get your through your camping trip. With some of the best products chosen by our very own ambassadors and team, these items are great to check out.
No one likes to be unprepared for a trip, especially if you're roughing it outdoors and are away from civilization. So these items below can make your summer camping trip better and a bit more bearable if you're not exactly the outdoors-type.
Although it's not the smallest on the market, this affordable and dependable little filter has seen us through a lot of outdoor adventures through the years. Every avid backcountry camper and hiker should have a filter, whether it's for a long stay at a pristine lake in the wilderness, or just for emergencies.
I absolutely LOVE my Big Agnes Sleeping bag - to save weight, the sleeping bag has an ingenious sleeve at the bottom for your camping pad instead of insulation. This keeps the sleeping bag light and comfortable, and best of all, you NEVER wake up on the ground instead of on your sleeping pad!
My old sleeping pad took up half of my backpack, so I love this new line from Thermarest that folds to about the size of a Nalgene bottle. And if you can't afford separate gear for car camping and backpacking, these pads are comfy enough for both!
Nemo is relatively new to the market for outdoor gear, but we're loving the quality and thoughtfulness of their products, from the way the tent comes together, to the organized stuff sack (a Type-A's dream). Also the neon green is fun.
For longer backpacking trips or dry camping, grab a collapsable water tank. It'll pack up small, but store a ton of water!
Let's face it, there's just no graceful way to pee in the woods while holding a flashlight. Enter my favorite headlamp! Great for finding your way around the campground (even if the campground is the kid with flush toilets), or anything else you might like to do in the dark, from moonlit snowshoe treks to cave expeditions. This headlamp has a long-lasting LED, and produces a lot of light for the affordable price.
"Definitely your SheShreds water bottle, staying hydrated is super important while hiking to your spot, and just in general!" - Ambassador Jenna Malcolm
"I try to pack tons of clothes, bc I like options. I love to pack my SheShreds muscle tees, slouchy tanks, and black shred on hat to keep the sun out of my eyes. I like to pack my SheShreds windbreaker, just in case a small rain shower happens. Bug spray is an absolute must and a head lamp for some light." - Team Athlete Colleen Daugherty

Aishwarya Rai is and will always remain Bollywood royalty. Her roll for Mani Ratnam's upcoming blockbuster film Ponnyin Selvan: I is just befitting for her aura. Think extravagant courtrooms, silk curtains and opulent sarees and a very stunning Aishwarya Rai in the middle of it all. In the first look poster of her character Rani Nandini of Pazhuvoor, Aishwarya Rai stands tall in stupendously graceful in an orange kanjeevaram saree draped in the front pallu style twirled on the arm. The traditional jewellery was a fantastic addition for the queen of hearts and land of Pazhuvoor that she is. Her makeup is kept to the absolute minimal and her effervescent glow works her magic to swoon us all even after all these years.
Aishwarya Rai returns to the movies with a rather ambitious project but when it comes to the style front, she never left the limelight. She stole the show and continued to do it further when she walked the Cannes red carpet like the fashionable force of nature she is. Gaurav Gupta's creation came to life all thanks to Aishwarya Rai when she wore it.
We couldn't have imagined a floral burst better than when Aishwarya Rai wore it at the Cannes Film Festival. If one were to be poetic, they'd say that her Dolce & Gabbana gown is fashion's metaphor of flowers blooming from the darkest of places. We believe it is fashion and art's finest collaboration.
Aishwarya Rai makes a mark everywhere she goes. She is as notable today as she was when she started her cinematic journey. And when she wears a dramatic Rohit Bal outfit, she walks and talks with substance and much more.
Aishwarya Rai continues to show that she is her to stay - in movies, fashion and certified global icon.Comments

War Lord (disambiguation)for other, similarly-named pages.
War Lords looked identical to humans and could easily pass themselves off as humans which allowed them to assume positions of command to fulfil their agenda. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Exodus) However, they were highly sensitive to intense light in comparison, reacting to it with extreme pain. (TV: The War Games)
The War Lords used special eyeglasses disguised as ordinary spectacles — or, in the case of von Weich, a monocle — to induce mind control in the field, which they used these to influence the behaviour of human soldiers. They would put these on and speak in order to affect the minds of others. With these glasses, they could hypnotise humans into forgetting the materialisation of a SIDRAT. On their base, they had technology to re-condition and re-process the minds of human soldiers and machines to tell whether or not the processing had taken. (TV: The War Games)
In their efforts to assist Nazi Germany win World War II, the War Lords used their technology to control SS soldiers, to the point where they were able to reanimate their corpses. They set up a transmat booth to transport people from Berlin to Drachensberg, and a nuclear reactor underneath the castle. They also had a telepathic receiver shaped like a crystal ball which was used to contact the Seventh Doctor, and a powerful laser weapon disguised as a cane. The War Chief also gave them time scanning technology and SIDRATs. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Exodus)
When the War Chief first gave them time technology, the War Lords abducted members of several different warlike races and experimented on them to determine their suitability as soldiers in their armies; one such individual was Ossu-male, an Ulk-Ra. Eventually, the War Lords decided to use humans for their army, eventually coming to see that humans were more dangerous. (PROSE: War Crimes)
The War Lords attempted to build an army by taking human soldiers from different moments in Earth's history and forcing them to fight each other; the survivors would be used to conquer the galaxy. This plan was defeated by the Second Doctor and his allies, and by the Time Lords, who executed their leader and placed their home planet within a force field — cutting it off from the rest of the Universe forever. (TV: The War Games)
The War Lords tried to kill the War Chief, who barely survived after a failed regeneration and was taken back to their homeworld, where he was kept as a scientific oddity. He eventually convinced the War Lords that he hadn't betrayed them, and began work on a new plan for galactic conquest. The War Lords escaped from their time-looped planet and travelled to Nazi Germany. They set themselves up as the Black Coven and allied with Adolf Hitler (who possessed the power of the Timewyrm), supplying advanced technology disguised as black magic to help win World War II.
This plan was uncovered by the Seventh Doctor, who had Hermann Goering and his men attack their base in Drachensberg, killing them. The Doctor then overloaded their nuclear reactor, causing it to explode and destroying their advanced technology. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Exodus)
In an alternate timeline created when the Master used a conceptual bomb to destroy the Doctor's TARDIS, so that the Doctor never left Gallifrey, the War Lords' armies spread across the galaxy. (AUDIO: The Light at the End)
Behind the scenes
- The species is only referred to as "the Aliens" in The War Games, where "the War Lord" is only ever used as the title for the species' leader. This was echoed in Destiny of the Doctors and Divided Loyalties.
- Gareth Kavanagh stated in 2021 that the original plan for Omega was to have Omega meet the War Lords, but that the licensing deal couldn't be worked out. In the end, the finished product instead featured the Minyans instead.

Designing an Air Quality Network for Brisbane Using a Mesoscale Model
Brisbane is a subtropical city of one million people situated on the east coast of Australia and flanked by mountains to the west and south. The city has very few major industrial sources but is rapidly expanding. Fifteen years of multi-parameter monitoring at three inner suburban sites have shown a considerable inter-annual variability of ozone concentrations at greater than background levels, with maximum readings usually occurring between midday and early afternoon, and from late winter through to late autumn. On all of these days it is likely that areas of greater ozone concentrations exist elsewhere in the region later in the day. It is the aim of this study to identify those areas and to design an expanded meteorological and air quality network. Data from such a network will be invaluable to environmental and planning authorities.

I gotta admit I am a little concerned about the recently acquired newspaper business. It is one thing to have them owe you money it is another to think you can run it better. Is this a case of throwing good money after bad, or ego where someone couldn't admit they made a bad move loaning them the money. So now we are going all in owning a bunch of small newspapers. I believe in stick to what you know, senior citizen housing. Why get into this?? I will wait and see for now. I will be thrilled to be proven wrong...
I also was wondering about this new venture out of left field (so to speak) however, they were quoting mind boggling returns on invested capital at their conferences. One is really investing in the ability of the CEO .
Of course when you read the fine print in their presentations you get the usual boiler plate ifs, whats, and maybes. Basically it got NCT out of a 600mm investment in GateHouse that was a losing proposition and turned it into an equity position with significant potential.
There "may" be some real values in the local newspaper business. I live in Orange County CA and the local newspaper Orange County Register and their parent went BK about a year ago… bought out by some smart busy (with no newspaper experience) and the paper is booming… ads pages up up up, larger format and dal focus on local and regional news… don't just say newspapers are a bad business… some opportunities exist if management has some imagination.
Read the presentation on their website. NCT owns 600mm of GateHouse's debt. They are doing a prepackaged Ch 11 bankruptcy in which the debt will be converted into equity. Other debt holders (about another 600 mm) will have the option of either converting their debt into equity, or cash, at 40 cents on the dollar. I'd guess NCT will own most of the company as .40 on the dollar is a pretty good settlement for creditors. Usually more like .10 cents. Based on the companies history I'd not judge this to be a "bad deal" yet. They certainly know what they're doing.
Like most everyone here, this sounds like a bad deal. But remember they told us up front their (management) intentions. The real money people (not us little bitty guys) get 40% on the dollar they invested ( the other way they were going to evenually have gotten nothing) Gatehouse then does a preapproved BR and the new company is formed with the same players and no debt. NCT then does a spin-off where we get 1 for 1 shares of New Media PLUS a dividend. Our new shares will be worth about 3 to 5 dollars. By the end of the year newspapers will not even be a part of NCT and have no effect on senior housing.
I got into NCT just recently, in a relatively small way, but the comments here make me think that people have been favorably impressed with management prior to this deal. Why do you think they are wrong now? If they are right, this is a huge win. If they are wrong, your investment in NCT alone should be a good long-term bet if you bought in the mid-$5's. I share the feelings of uncertainty, but I am going to hold as a speculative bet: 10,000 shares only.
Don't rely on first time posters here (kay59) or resident basher/nut jobs like warcoochiemonster. There are plenty of long time NCT holders here posting informative and well researched information on the company. Follow hanacookie, mreitcmbs, sonnenwayne, and a host of others. The company in the past year has done nothing but promise and fulfill those promises, unlocking the value of their assets and paying an ever increasing dividend. This new venture is taking a dead/ valueless asset (GateHouse Media) and turning it into a performing entity. Management is the best and they certainly know what they're doing. GLTU.
Do a little due diligence about the company ... I suggest you listen to the conference call they recently had on the acquisition. NCT and Gatehouse Media are both operated by FIG (their parent company). They very much know what they are doing.

Study Suggests that A Combo of Polyphenols in Green Tea and Red Wine Could Halt Prostate Cancer Growth
Scientists believe that antioxidants in a combination of red wine and green tea inhibit the growth of prostate cancer as well as colon cancer, breast cancer and gastric cancers. An article in ScienceDaily discusses this new and exciting discovery that may lead to a major advance in the treatment of these cancers:
This new discovery, published online in The FASEB Journal, explains how antioxidants in red wine and green tea produce a combined effect to disrupt an important cell signaling pathway necessary for prostate cancer growth. This finding is important because it may lead to the development of drugs that could stop or slow cancer progression, or improve current treatments.
'Not only does SphK1/S1P signaling pathway play a role in prostate cancer, but it also plays a role in other cancers, such as colon cancer, breast cancer, and gastric cancers,' said Gerald Weissmann, MD, editor-in-chief of The FASEB Journal. 'Even if future studies show that drinking red wine and green tea isn't as effective in humans as we hope, knowing that the compounds in those drinks disrupts this pathway is an important step toward developing drugs that hit the same target.'
'The profound impact that the antioxidants in red wine and green tea have on our bodies is more than anyone would have dreamt just 25 years ago,' Weissmann added. 'As long as they are taken in moderation, all signs show that red wine and green tea may be ranked among the most potent 'health foods' we know.'

Loop Braid Hair Tutorial
Three Strand Loop Braid
When my aunt did this braid I thought it looked a bit complicated. That’s not the case, it’s actually a simple three strand braid with a few extra strands in between.
- Wide Tooth Comb
- Aerosol Hairspray
- Hair Band
- Pretty Hair Accessory
- Start off with a sleek ponytail. You want your ponytail to be at the nape of the neck. This creates an elegant look. You don’t want this braid to be sticking out from a high ponytail. Also, you’ll want your hair to be clean and damp. if your hair is dry, you can add mousse to make it easier to manage.
- If you want to add a nice hair accessory to your ponytail now would be the time to add it then divide your hair into three equal sections.
- From the right section of hair separate a small section of hair and leave on the side, cross the right section of hair over the middle. Now separate a small section of hair from the left side and cross the left section over the middle. It’s like creating a normal three strand braid but you’re leaving a small section of hair behind to create the loops.
- Once you have the braid started you’re going to separate a small section of hair from the right side again but this time take the first strad you had left out and add it to the right strand. Repeat on the other side.
- Lightly tug on the small sections of hair you added to create the loops. Before every hair crossover you want to leave a small section of hair behind and grab the section of hair above it. Again, slightly tug on the section of hair you added to create the loop look.
- Continue leaving sections of strands behind and grabbing the previous one. The mousse we added in the beginning will create a sleek look and keep the loops looking clean and not messy. .
- Let me reiterate, it’s like braiding a normal three strand braid but the only extra step is separating a small strand of hair and grabbing the section before it to create the loop.
- Once you reach the end of the braid tie it with a small elastic band.
If you have any questions please let me know in the comments. If you would like to see a quick video to make this easier let me know!

Drooping blossoms are found across the flower kingdom. These types of flowers are visually elegant and draw the eye of the garden visitor. Various types of droopy flowers also attract birds, butterflies and hummingbirds who feed on the blossoms. Plant these flowers separately or tiny groups to show them as showcase plants.
Droopy perennial flowers tend to die out as soon as the weather turns cold, only to grow again in the spring. 1 instance of a perennial with droopy flowers is the Canadian columbine (Aquilegia canadensis), which grows best in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 3 through 8. This 1- to 3-foot-tall dark green plant creates nodding scarlet blossoms with yellow honeycomb-like centers from spring through summer. Spotted bellflower (Campanula punctata) attains 6 to 12 inches high in USDA zones 4 through 8, with heart-shaped purple and leaves tubular-shaped summer blossoms with reddish spots. Other drooping perennial blossoms incorporate the “King of Hearts” bleeding heart (Dicentra “King of Hearts”) and crown imperial blossoms (Fritillaria imperialis), which grow in USDA zones 5 through 9.
Flowering vines climb up walls, fences and arbors. Some varieties create drooping clusters of blossoms which cascade down the long vines. 1 flowering vine for USDA zones 5 through 11 is the “Golden Tiara” Russian virgin’s bower vine (Clematis tangutica “Golden Tiara”), which covers its 15- to 20-foot stems with draping yellowish flowers that have hanging purple bells through the summer and autumn. “Ritak” sausage vine (Holboellia latifolia “Ritak”) grows best in USDA zones 6 through 10, reaching 15 feet tall. At the spring, clusters of cinnamon-scented cascading purple blossoms which are followed by purple fruit. “Amethyst Falls” American wisteria (Wisteria frutescens “Amethyst Falls”) and white Japanese wisteria (Wisteria floribunda “Issai Perfect”) are large vines which grow well in USDA zones 5 through 9.
Flowering shrubs live a long time and fill in huge gaps in the landscape. The drooping blossoms on tall shrubs allow the visitor to appear into the blossoms. Flowering maples (Abutilon x hybridum), growing in USDA plant hardiness zones 9 through 11, grow as tropical evergreens forming 8- to 12-foot-high mounds with drooping bell-like blossoms appearing from spring through summer. These flowers can be found in yellow, yellow, orange, pink and white. Lemon leaf shrubs (Gaultheria shallon) grow low to the ground, remaining 12 to 24 inches tall, with sprawling green stems and cascading clusters of pinkish-white flowers from spring through summer. This bush stays evergreen in USDA zones 6 through 8 with winter berries that attract birds to the yard.
Drooping blooms appear on little and tall trees, appearing during the warm seasons of the year. 1 little tree is the Chinese fringe tree (Chionanthus retusus), which reaches 10 to 20 feet tall in USDA zones 5 through 9. The white spring flowers form 4-inch-long clusters. “Honey Tree” viburnum (Viburnum arbicolon “Honey Tree”) rises within an evergreen tree in USDA zones 7 through 10, reaching 25 feet high with honey-scented blossoms, in draping clusters made up of tiny white blossoms. “Red Cascade” bottlebrush (Callistemon viminalis “Red Cascade”) creates red pendulous bottlebrush-shaped blossoms in the spring, summer and fall. Gray-green leaves cover this 20- to 25-foot-tall evergreen tree, which attracts hummingbirds.

US Pharm. 2023;48(6):22-24.
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive disorder that damages and destroys nerve cells in the brain. Over time, the disease leads to a gradual loss of cognitive functions, including the ability to remember, reason, use language, and recognize familiar places. It can also cause a range of behavioral changes.
AD is the most common cause of memory loss and other cognitive abilities that are serious enough to interfere with daily life. This disease accounts for 60% to 80% of dementia cases.1
AD is not a necessary part of the natural aging process, but its greatest known risk factor is increasing age. The majority of people with AD are aged 65 years and older. AD is considered to be early-onset AD if it affects a person aged younger than 65 years. Early-onset is also referred to as younger-onset Alzheimer’s.1
This disease is progressive, wherein dementia symptoms gradually worsen over a number of years. In its early stages, memory loss is mild, but with late-stage AD, individuals lose the ability to carry on conversations and respond to their environment. It has been reported that a person with AD lives 4 to 8 years after diagnosis but can live as long as 20 years, depending on other factors.2
AD has no cure, but recently two FDA-approved monoclonal antibody treatments—aducanumab and lecanemab—demonstrated that removing beta-amyloids, one of the known main causes of AD, from the brain reduces cognitive and functional decline in people living with early AD. Other treatments can slow the worsening of dementia symptoms and improve quality of life for those with AD and their caregivers. Today, a global effort is underway to find better ways to treat the disease, delay its onset, and prevent it from developing.3
This disease is named for its discoverer, Alois Alzheimer. In 1906, Dr. Alzheimer found unusual changes in the brain tissue of one of his patients who had died of a mental illness. This patient had memory loss, language problems, and unpredictable behavior. After she died, he found many abnormal clumps made of a toxic protein (amyloid plaques) and tangled bundles of fibers (neurofibrillary tangles) in her brain. Plaques and tangles in the brain are two of the main features of AD. The third is the loss of connections between nerve cells (neurons) in the brain.4
AD accounts for almost three-quarters of cases of dementia, with the remainder accounted for by vascular dementia (VaD), mixed AD and VaD, dementia with Lewy bodies, and frontotemporal dementia.5
AD is the most common form of dementia (aging loss of memory) and is a progressive brain disease that slowly steals the minds of its victims, destroying memory and thinking skills, and, eventually, the ability to carry out the simplest tasks. There are two types of patients with AD: those with type 1 AD (early-onset, before age 65 years) and those with type 2 AD (late-onset, after age 65 years). In most people with AD, symptoms first appear after age 65 years.5
Signs and Symptoms
The first sign of AD is memory problems. In comparison, some people have more memory problems than others of their age. This is called amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The symptoms are not as severe as those in people with AD, but those with MCI are likely to develop the disease.6
There are other changes that also signal the very early stages of AD. These include problems with the sense of smell and cognitive issues. These findings may offer tools that could help detect AD early, follow the course of the disease, and monitor response to treatments. AD progresses from mild to severe forms. By the final stage, plaques and tangles spread throughout the brain, and the brain tissue shrinks significantly. People with severe AD cannot communicate and are completely dependent on others for their care. Toward the end, patients with AD may rest in bed most of the time as the body starts to shut down.6
The neuropathologic process consists of neuronal loss and atrophy with an inflammatory response to the deposition of amyloid plaques and the abnormal clustering of protein fragments and neurofibrillary tangles. This damaging process spreads to a nearby structure, called the hippocampus, which is essential in forming memories.6,7
Several factors that cause AD have been identified, and they include environmental, genetic, and lifestyle factors. Because people differ in their genetic makeup and lifestyle, the importance of these factors in preventing or delaying AD differs from person to person. The plaques can now be visualized by imaging the brains of living individuals, and findings from these studies will help clinicians understand the underlying causes of AD. Also, individuals with AD have increased presence of monocytes/macrophages in the cerebral vessel walls. The main protein component of amyloid in AD is the 39-42 amino acid (beta-amyloid peptide).6,7
One of the puzzles of AD is why it largely strikes older adults. Research on how the brain changes normally with age is shedding light on this question. For example, scientists are learning how age-related changes in the brain may harm neurons and contribute to AD damage. These age-related changes include shrinking of certain parts of the brain, inflammation, and the production of very damaging and unstable molecules called free radicals due to oxidative stress and cell respiration.6,7
Accumulating data from the clinical research support that the core AD cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers amyloid-β (Aβ42), total tau (T-tau), and phosphorylated tau (P-tau) reflect key elements of AD pathophysiology.8
One of the most controversial theories concerns the metal aluminum, which became a suspect when researchers found traces of this metal in the brains of patients with AD. Many studies since then have either not been able to confirm this finding or had questionable results. Aluminum turns up in higher amounts than normal in some, but not all, autopsy studies of patients with AD. Aluminum and lead are found in small amounts in numerous household products and in many foods. As a result, there have been fears that aluminum consumed in the diet or absorbed from other sources could be a factor in AD.9
Naturally occurring metals such as zinc, copper, and iron are present in our bodies and are essential to keep our brains working properly. Too much zinc and certain toxins in food are also believed to cause neurologic damage and are linked with early dementia.9
It has been reported that a minority of people develop AD in their 30s, 40s, and 50s (type 1). Many of these people have a mutation, or permanent change, in one of three genes that they inherited from a parent. We know that these gene mutations cause AD in these early-onset familial cases. Not all early-onset cases are caused by such mutations.6
Most people with AD have late-onset AD, which usually develops after age 65 years (type 2). Many studies have linked a gene called APOE to late-onset AD. This gene has several forms, and one of them, APOE e4, increases a person’s risk of getting the disease. About 40% of all people who develop late-onset AD carry this gene. However, carrying the APOE e4 form of the gene does not necessarily mean that a person will develop AD, and people carrying no APOE e4 forms can also develop the disease. There are reports by experts in the field that additional genes may influence the development of late-onset AD in some way.6
Early AD diagnosis by CT and MRI is beneficial for several reasons. Getting an early diagnosis and starting treatment in the early stages of the disease can help preserve function for months to years, even though the underlying disease process cannot be changed. Having an early diagnosis also helps families plan for the future, make living arrangements, take care of financial and legal matters, and develop support networks. In addition, an early diagnosis can provide greater opportunities for people to get involved in clinical trials.
Research into AD has developed to the point that scientists can look beyond treating symptoms to address the underlying disease process. In ongoing clinical trials, scientists are looking at many possible interventions, such as cardiovascular and diabetes treatments, antioxidants, immunization therapy, cognitive training, and physical activity.10
The past 20 years have seen an enormous expansion in research on fluid biomarkers for AD. The core AD CSF biomarkers T-tau, P-tau, and Aβ42 (and the Aβ42/40 ratio) have been evaluated in hundreds of clinical neurochemical studies with extraordinarily consistent results, showing high diagnostic accuracy not only for AD dementia but, importantly, also for prodromal AD.8
AD is a complex disease, and no single drug is likely to prevent or cure it. That is why current treatments focus on several different aspects, including helping people maintain mental function and managing behavioral symptoms to slow, delay, or prevent the disease.11
Four medications with cholinergic activity are approved by the FDA to treat AD. Donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon), and Aβ42/40 galantamine (Razadyne) are used to treat mild-to-moderate AD (donepezil can be used for severe AD as well). These drugs act to stop the breakdown of acetylcholine by delaying formation of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. This appears to result in increased concentrations of acetylcholine available for synaptic transmission in the central nervous system to improve cognitive deficits.5,6,11
The fourth drug, memantine (Namenda), is an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist used to treat moderate-to-severe AD. This drug works by regulating neurotransmitters and may help maintain thinking, memory, and speaking skills, plus assist with certain behavioral problems. However, these drugs do not change the underlying disease process and may help only for a few months to a few years. They also have their own side effects and drug interactions.5,6,11
Antipsychotic drugs help with agitation and outbursts. These medicines are often reserved for advanced AD symptoms with psychotic features, such as delusions, hallucinations, and paranoia.5
The FDA recently approved aducanumab (Aduhelm) for people with mild symptoms of AD, such as individuals who are still independent in basic daily functioning. Aducanumab reduces brain amyloid plaque (protein deposits), a main feature of AD. Plaque reduction, however, has not been a reliable marker for cognitive function in past trials. Not everyone with plaques has or will get AD, and other plaque-reducing medications have not shown meaningful patient benefit.3
The FDA recently granted accelerated approval to another new AD treatment called lecanemab (Leqembi), which has been shown to moderately slow cognitive and functional decline in the early stages of the disease. Lecanemab works by removing a sticky protein from the brain that is believed to cause AD to advance. The drug is delivered by an IV infusion (100 mg/mL) every 2 weeks.3 The FDA’s accelerated pathway allows for earlier approval of drugs that treat serious conditions for which other treatments are not available or may no longer be effective.

The original Summer of Love took place in San Francisco 42 years ago. But Taos, NM, has cooked up its own version with actor and director Dennis Hopper. Hopper first rode into town in 1968 to direct the iconic counterculture film Easy Rider. He ended up staying 15 years.
Now, 40 years after the release of the film, the town is paying homage to Hopper, who was just named honorary mayor of the historic art colony. On Saturday, an exhibit curated by Hopper opened at the Harwood Museum of Art. In the show, Hopper brings together works by a pantheon of his legendary artist friends, including Ron Davis, Ron Cooper, Robert Dean Stockwell and Larry Bell.
Before Hopper moved to Taos, he was part of vibrant art movement in Los Angeles that centered around the Ferus Gallery—a magnet that drew up-and-coming L.A. artists such as Bell. Some of Hopper’s photographs from the period also are on display at the Harwood and capture these artists brimming with youthful bravado and L.A. cool. “Hopper at the Harwood” is on view through Sept. 20.

It’s hoped that some traffic can begin moving on the Trans-Canada Highway west of Field, B.C. by Thursday night, but it could be months before highway travel in the region is back to normal. The highway has been closed since a rockslide Monday that injured two workers. The workers had been preparing the site for explosives to mitigate against rockslides.
Caitlin Cameron at Amiskwi Fireworks in Field tells Global News the community feels like a ghost town. “There’s absolutely no traffic… No-one is going to travel through here right now. So, there’s absolutely no business.” Cameron says the town is cut off and kids are missing school.
Everett Cooper, chef at Truffle Pigs, they’ve run out of some stock, but that’s one of the hazards of mountain living. “Nothing’s ever sure. A rockslide could happen in our town or whatever and when you’re being invasive like that of course there’s bound to be a degree of instability.”
Parks Canada hope to pave one section of the road to allow single-lane of alternating traffic should to begin moving through the site by 6 o’clock this evening. Cameron is concerned after hearing the Parks officials say it could be spring before the extensive damages to the highway are repaired. “Hopefully they have a better plan than that. I think that’s going to put a huge damger on transportation between here and Golden.”
A detour is in effect on Highway 93 South. Parks officials will say more about the return to two-lane traffic later today.


Wigner, Eugene P.
Wigner, Eugene P. (Paul)(1902– ) physicist; born in Budapest, Hungary. He taught and performed research in Germany (1926–30), then emigrated to the U.S.A. (1930). He taught at Princeton (1930–36), spent a year at the University of Wisconsin, then returned to Princeton (1938–71). While his earlier research concentrated on rates of chemical reactions, the theory of metallic cohesion, and group theory in quantum mechanics, he later focused on nuclear structure, including studies of nuclear resonance, electron spin, and the mirror nuclides now known as Wigner nuclides (one of several atomic phenomena given his name). Taking leave from Princeton (1942–45), he joined Enrico Fermi in Chicago, where his calculations were essential to the design of the first atomic bomb. After World War II, Wigner became an advocate of nuclear arms control. He won the 1963 Nobel Prize for his many contributions to nuclear physics and elementary particles. After retiring, he continued his interest in the effect of nuclear technology on society.

Feb. 22 (UPI) -- Boeing received an $18.7 million contract from the United Arab Emirates to provide logistics support and C-17 training simulator maintenance.
The two-year contract tasks the company with supporting the country's training efforts with the C-17 Globemaster III aircraft. Boeing provides similar functions for several other armed forces, and says it will tailor its services to meet the UAE's specific requirements.
"With this new UAE contract, Boeing will continue training the Emirati C-17 students through each phase of their careers," program manager Larry Sisco said in a press release.
Sisco went on to add the work will support the UAE's combat readiness in the future.
"We help our customers do amazing things by delivering critical training and learning tools -- affordably and on time," he said. "By maintaining our focus on innovation and service, we play a key role in helping the UAE maintain a high mission-readiness rate for its C-17 fleet."
Boeing provides C-17 training services for pilots in Britain, India and NATO, and has installed 35 aircrew simulators at training centers around the world.
The Boeing-built C-17 Globemaster III is a four-engine, multirole military transport aircraft capable of carrying large payloads which can include supporting equipment or personnel. The airlifter has a range of 2,400 nautical miles, and is able to perform 60,000 payload drops.

As you might know, there are now businesses asking you to send in your old jewelry in exchange for cash. Imagine you have a solid gold sphere of 15.7 mm diameter which you decide to send in for cash. If the company offers $125 per ounce of gold, how much money will they send you given that the density of gold is 19.31 g/cm^3.
1 ounce = 28.3495231 grams
1 cm^3 = 1000mm^3
19.31g/cm^3 x 1 ounce/28.3495231 g x cm^3/1000mm^3 =
