When we reviewed the Suzuki Vitara last year, we felt it was somewhat lacking in the requisite ‘fun factor’ hinted at by the Vitara name. Much of the blame for that, we felt, lay with the rather leisurely range of engines, so when Suzuki announced the arrival of their new 1.4-litre turbocharged ‘Boosterjet’ unit, we wanted to take another crack at it.
Every now and then, a car comes along that embeds itself in automotive history, or redefines a market segment. Sometimes, heroes come from the most unlikely backgrounds, and I humbly propose that the Volvo XC90 has done more for road safety than most other cars in recent history. Previous seven-seaters expected you to load your off-spring into what was effectively the rear crumple zone, but Volvo fixed that with the first generation XC90 so comprehensively it remained in production for over a decade. So what challenge must the new XC90 meet?
Ah, the go-anywhere, all-weather estate car. Volvo practically invented the concept when they all-wheel-driverised the V70 back in 1997 and slapped a Cross Country moniker on the tailgate, prompting the German competition to launch Allroad, Alltrack, and a slew of other ‘All’ models. So, with the V60 consistently appearing in Volvo’s top three best-sellers, it makes sense to bestow it with the full-on all-weather treatment.
Subaru say the Levorg name is a combination of Legacy, Revolution and Touring, and that this new model is designed to take over where the old Legacy Tourer left off. I’ve puzzled over this because... well, why not just produce a new Legacy Tourer, a wagon based on the rather handsome Legacy saloon? The answer – at least to my mind – lies in the way it drives.
The Subaru XV has received a number of revisions for the 2016 model year, including subtle exterior tweaks, quality upgrades for the cabin, and increased efficiency from its petrol and diesel engines.
For 2016, the venerable Porsche Boxster gets a new name and a new range of engines. Now dubbed the Porsche 718 Boxster, the name echoes that of the mid-engined racers of the '50s and '60s.
The new versions of the best-selling DS 3 and DS 3 Cabrio have been unveiled, continuing the efforts by parent company Citroen to establish DS as a stand-alone brand, a move kick-started by the DS 5.
The new Mercedes-Benz E-Class is available to order now in the UK, with prices starting from £35,935 for the 2.0-litre diesel E220d, or £44,930 for the 3.0-litre E350d.
Subaru is returning to motorsport. In collaboration with Team BMR, Subaru will race the new Levorg in the 2016 Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship.
For the 2017 model year, the Jaguar XF gains a number of revisions, including the option of all-wheel-drive (AWD) on a new 180PS 2.0-litre Ingenium diesel unit.

Source: Zimbabwe exports shoot up marginally – Sunday News July 15, 2018
Dumisani Nsingo, Senior Business Reporter
ZIMBABWE’s exports increased by 1,8 percent last month rising from $267,1 million in May to $384,4 million in the month of June, official trade figures show.
The improved month-on-month export performance during the period under review was largely buoyed by a surge in the selling of semi-manufactured gold including gold plated with platinum, which fetched the country $150,7 million an increase from the $89,1 million realised from the same commodity in May.
During the comparable period last year, the country had accumulated $264,4 million from exports compared to the $384,4 million achieved last month.
Data from the Zimbabwe National Statistics Agency (Zimstat) also indicates South Africa is the country’s largest trading partner. It was the biggest importer, importing $152,7 million up from $124,8 million.
South Africa remains one of the most important trading partners for Zimbabwe; with Zimbabwe importing 40 percent of its total imports and exporting 75 percent of its total exports to South Africa.
Since the liberalisation of the economy in February 2009, concerted efforts were being made by various stakeholders including the Government and Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe to drive the economy towards an export-led growth. Although Zimbabwe reduced its trade deficit by 25 percent last year to $1,5 billion, a lot still needs to be done with Government this year targeting to further reduce the trade balance to less than $1 billion.
According to a recent report by the United Nations, Zimbabwe is among the developing countries that heavily rely on commodity exports due to limited diversification of their economies. And due to suppressed production, Zimbabwe also relies on importing key raw materials for its industry, which drains the scarce foreign exchange in the economy.
As such, experts have stressed the need to adopt a value chain approach and import substitution models under the value addition and beneficiation thrust so as to ensure production of high value end products. Value addition and beneficiation is a key component of the country’s economic blue-print, Zim Asset.

Walking Foot Insoles for Dynamic Postural Analysis of Patients with Gait Imbalance: A Preliminary Report
There are different cycles involved in the gait. In order to detect the pathological gait, it is necessary to understand the normal gait. During walk, various parameters were calculated to do analysis for providing further gait training. The aim of this study is to do the investigation and precise identification of deviation in gait pattern. Experimental study is done on thirty-one test subjects suffering from gait impairment. Further, data analysis on subjects is done to measure their gait parameters for usability in their walking aids. Favorable measuring parametric results were obtained and found satisfactory on comparing with standard walking system. The system is capable of determining the standard of care for the assessment and treatment of patients with balance, dizziness and mobility problems.

Understanding the neurology of dementia:
A common misconception is that Dementia is a normal part of the ageing process. Dementia is a broad-spectrum term for a range of progressive diseases that generally affect memory, emotional and sometimes physical ability.
Dementia is ultimately caused by damage to the brain cells, this damage then causes miscommunications within the brain. When the brain cells do not then work together as usually this can have an effect on an individual’s thinking, abilities and behaviour. Dependent on the type of damage to the cells and the particular regions that are affected this can indicate through investigations (i.e brain scans….) what particular type of Dementia is present.
There are many potential causes of the damage to the brain cells that can cause dementia.
ARD – Alcohol Related Dementia
Wernicke–Korsakoff syndrome: This is a syndrome that is associated with excessive and chronic long term misuse of alcohol that presents with Dementia type symptoms.
Alzheimer’s disease is associated with a buildup of proteins in the brain causing plaques & tangles. The buildup of these is common during the natural aging process. However, post mortem investigations have discovered an unusually large amount in people presenting with Alzheimer’s type symptoms.
Vascular Dementia is caused by a reduced flow of blood to the brain. This can occur following a stroke or a series of TIA’s which can then result in stopping the blood accessing the blood vessels. If the blood does then not reach the brain, the brain cells dying off.
Pick’s Disease: This is caused when the frontal temporal lobes are damaged. This is the part of the brain that controls our behaviour, language and emotion. When this area of the brain is damaged is can cause it can cause a disruption in one’s ability to manage their own social conduct and inhibitions.

Today the IRS released proposed regulations that provide guidance on the “next day” rule under Treas. Reg. §1.1502-76 to clarify when corporations will be considered to have joined or left a consolidated group. The proposed regulations generally clarify the period in which a corporation that becomes or ceases to be a member of a consolidated group during a consolidated return year must report certain tax items. The IRS states that the proposed rules more clearly reflect taxable income and prevent certain post-closing actions from adversely impacting the corporation’s tax return for the period ending on the day of the corporation’s change in status.
The proposed “next day” rule would apply only to extraordinary items (defined in the proposed regulations) that result from transactions that occur on the day of the corporation’s change in status, but after the event causing the change, and that would be taken into account by the corporation on that day.
Among the other changes made by the proposed regulations are the addition of a rule to clarify the application of a special rule for S corporations, which provides a special exception to the “end of the day” rule if an S corporation joins a consolidated group. Further, the proposed regulations provide a rule to “limit the scope of the end of the day rule, the next day rule, the S corporation exception, and the previous day rule to determining the period in which [the corporation] must report certain tax items and determining the treatment of an asset or a tax item for purposes of sections 382(h) and 1374.” Finally, the proposed regulations provide that short taxable years resulting from intercompany transactions to which Section 381 applies are not taken into account in determining the carryover period for a tax item of the distributor or transferor member in the intercompany Section 381 transaction or for purposes of Section 481(a).
Comments on the proposed rules are due by June 4, 2015.

Mercedes-Maybach is expanding its product portfolio with a luxurious all-electric SUV based on the modular architecture for luxury- and executive-class electric vehicles.
With the Concept EQS, Mercedes-Maybach is providing a clear preview of the first fully electric series-production model for the tradition-steeped luxury brand. The SUV concept vehicle is based on the modular architecture for luxury and executive-class electric vehicles from Mercedes-Benz and takes the exclusivity of Maybach into a locally emission-free future. The near-production one-off shows identifying features that are characteristic of Maybach – such as the elaborate two-tone paint finish – but with its innovative drive technology, also takes a step towards a significantly more progressive way of presenting the brand. In the interior, the rear becomes a comfortable place to work or rest thanks to Executive seats and the Chauffeur Package. Added to this are exclusive details such as the new door panels, the armrests of which are designed like high-quality sideboards. There are also trim elements in white piano lacquer and materials in deep-sea blue, which create a feel-good atmosphere on board as if on an elegant yacht.
The Mercedes-Maybach brand has always stood for state-of-the-art technology, handcrafted precision, and exclusivity. It is considered a pioneer in defining luxury, style, and status.
At the rear, the sparkling highlight is provided by the rear lights with their continuous helix light strip. The animation here runs from the outside in. The chrome roof spoiler acts as a sporty, aerodynamic trim element.
Another exclusive equipment option is provided by the automatic comfort front and rear doors. When the user approaches the vehicle, the door handles first extend. As the driver approaches further, the driver’s door opens automatically. Via MBUX, the driver also has the option of opening the rear doors remotely. The interior of the Concept Mercedes-Maybach EQS is just as emotional and stylish a statement as the exterior – realized completely virtually. The lounge character promises luxurious travel at the highest level. The front seats show parallels to the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class. Mercedes-Maybach is a legend that is constantly reinventing itself. In 1921, Wilhelm and Karl Maybach began building cars with the goal of creating “the very best of the very best”. It is this claim that has been defining the unique aura of Mercedes‑Maybach for 100 years now.

Flowing water erodes and transports sediment in the form of sand, gravel, rocks and wood. Each of these elements can dramatically impact channel and land formation, habitat and ecosystem function. In rural and wildland areas, active sediment transport contributes to ecosystem diversity and channel migration patterns. In urban, agricultural and residential areas, sediment transport activity is often due to flooding and erosion and when left unchecked can destabilize banks that support public and private infrastructure. To facilitate an understanding of the river’s sediment transport capacity and critical opportunities for restoration and infrastructure protection, we routinely provide detailed hydrologic, 1-D and 2-D hydraulic modeling, and sediment transport analyses.

Supramolecular Chemistry and Catalysis
Because of its interdisciplinary nature, supramolecular chemistry is now prevalent in many scientific areas including chemistry, physics, materials and life science. Supramolecular chemistry was linked to biology at its initial invention, for the reason that both sciences are dominated by weak interaction and molecular recognition. Typical processes such as enzymatic catalysis featuring high catalytic activity and selectivity take place under mild conditions. These attractive properties have been a source of inspiration and longstanding proposed application of supramolecular chemistry.
The joint Sino-Dutch bilateral research project will focus on the establishment of novel supramolecular systems that are constructed and fabricated based on new principles and ingenious macrocyclic compounds or other small molecular building blocks. The program aims at the development of conceptually new supramolecular and bio-inspired systems which have applications in catalysis and energy conversion.
To achieve this, experts from the following fields are expected to provide important contributions.
1. Supramolecular Catalysis and self-assembled catalysis
Construction of self-assembled catalytic systems featuring simplicity and reversibility of preparation of catalysts, and reusability and sustainability of supramolecular catalytic processes. Fabrication of well-defined supramolecular catalysts enabling chemical transformations that are difficult or even not feasible by means of conventional catalysis.
2. Bio-inspired catalysis
Catalyst systems that function based on principles found in Nature, functional biomolecule-based small, macromolecular systems and self-assembled systems with well-defined structures, which mediate and catalyze highly efficient and stereoselective and enantioselective chemical transformations.
3. Chemical / biological self-assembly & controllable assembly processes
Development of new physical and chemical methods to regulate chemical and biological self-assembly and disassembly processes while controlling and modulating the (multiple) physical and biological functions of assembled materials.
4. Novel host-guest systems and artificial receptors
Design and synthesis of ingenious macrocyclic, small molecular and polymeric hosts based on new concepts and synergistic non-covalent and dynamic covalent bond interactions. Design and production of function (catalysis and guest transportation) targeted host systems are highly encouraged.
5. Molecular recognition
Pursuing efficient and highly selective molecular recognition systems for advanced functional materials. Exploration and understanding of novel non-covalent bond interactions such as anion recognition and transportation, which may be relevant for understanding the novel supramolecular concepts in catalysis.
Project partners are invited to explicitly seek complementary expertise, where fundamental knowledge of chemical/biological self-assembly, host-guest systems, artificial receptors and molecular recognition are enablers for the development of new concepts in supramolecular catalysis or energy conversion processes.

Marlins' Pablo Lopez: Struggles through three frames
Lopez (5-7) took the loss Saturday at Washington after surrendering six runs on six hits over three innings. He struck out one and did not walk a batter.
Lopez served up back-to-back homers to Anthony Rendon and Juan Soto during the first inning, which set the tone for the following two frames. The 23-year-old has a 4.89 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 77:19 K:BB this season but has a more favorable matchup against the Royals on Friday.

The Florida Department of Health awarded several grants totaling more than $1 million to several north Florida counties. Madison County EMS is one of those counties, and officials there say the grant has been a tremendous help to them.
In an emergency every second is crucial, and getting to the scene in a timely manner is a matter of life and death. Madison emergency personnel say the county has two old ambulances that are not in ideal condition.
John Smith, a paramedic in Madison County, says, "Equipment is like everything else, it just breaks down with usage and with new updated equipment, it helps us keep with the ability to provide the best care we can."
Madison was awarded more than $75,000 to help remount two ambulances and purchase portable radios and emergency equipment.
Juan Botino, Director of Madison County EMS, says, "The grant program from the Bureau of EMS has been a blessing to us. We have purchased about eight ambulances using the EMS grant fund. We've got the latest equipment, which will help them medically and it will just improve overall patient care.”
Thanks to the grant, patient care will be improved and enhanced, saving countless lives in the rural area.
More than 20 counties were awarded the funds, which will be used for an array of items including the purchase of new equipment to personnel training. Funding from the grant is compiled from traffic tickets written in those counties.


A tsunami warning was issued on Monday for part of the Aleutian Islands after an earthquake struck off Alaska.
The U.S. Geological Survey says a magnitude-8.0 quake was recorded at 12:53 p.m. local time Monday afternoon. It was centered about 13 miles southeast of Little Sitkin Island.
There were no immediate reports of any injuries or damage.
An hour after the earthquake, the National Tsunami Warning Center in Palmer reported that a small tsunami of around 6 inches was recorded in Amchitka, according to the Anchorage Daily News.
Officials at the center told KTUU that "it's not looking like it's a significant height in the wave."
But Scott Langley, an electronics technician at the center, said "it doesn't take a lot of height in waves to do damage."
Natasha Ruppert, a seismologist with the Alaska Earthquake Center, said the communities that would have suffered damage are also under tsunami warnings, so people may not have been able to get out and check for damage yet.
It was recorded at a depth of 60 miles, which is relatively shallow for an earthquake in the Aleutian Islands. The shallower the quake, the more likely it will be felt.
The National Tsunami Warning Center issued a tsunami warning for coastal areas between Nikolski to Attu, on the Aleutian Islands. A warning means significant inundation is possible or occurring. Residents are being warned to move inland toward higher ground.
A tsunami advisory was also issued for coastal areas stretching from Nikolski to Unimak Pass. An advisory means strong currents or dangerous waves are expected, but widespread inundation isn't likely.
"If you are located in this coastal area, move inland to higher ground," the National Weather Service said.
The National Weather Service and U.S. Coast Guard also sent out alerts to fishermen who could be at risk because of the waves, KTUU reports.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

text: In this study, we proposed and demonstrated self-assembly-based via-last/backside-via 3D integration using a temporary spin-on glass (SOG) bonding technology. A hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) was employed as a debonding layer. Known good dies (KGDs) were precisely self-assembled right side up on an electrostatic carrier wafer by surface tension of water, and then, the KGDs were fixed by applying DC voltage to the carrier. After that, the KGDs were temporarily bonded and transferred to another support glass wafer on which the a-Si:H and SOG layers were deposited. After multichip thinning, Cu-TSVs were formed on the KGDs. The resulting TSV daisy chains showed good electrical characteristics. The KGDs can be debonded with a 308-nm laser and transferred again to target interposer wafers.

Cinema has always been blessed with great actors. From James Stewart and Marlon Brando in the early days to Jack Nicholson and Daniel Day-Lewis in recent times, great actors have always thrived. But a distinctive trait common to almost all great actors is that they have all excelled in lead roles. We have always looked for heroes in our movies and almost all great actors have played into it. But what about the little man standing beside the hero? Nobody gives a damn about him and his story. He is the underdog; the sidekick who is always towered by the leading man. It is the story of these men; these men who always balk in the side-lines, that the late great Philip Seymour Hoffman managed to perfect.
An actor who fearlessly explored the misery of the hurt, the exiled and the misunderstood, with his trademark signature of honesty, humor and empathy; Philip Seymour Hoffman was a voice for the millions of people who forever remained unrepresented in the movies. Hoffman always brought a human touch to all the roles he played, slowly transforming into each of his characters, imbibing their physical and emotional nuances; internalizing it and using everything at his disposal to make them real people, with real emotions. With his chubby face and childlike physique, he was always perennially ordinary, one of us; telling the story of our lives and our mundane existence.
Undoubtedly one of the finest actors of all time, Hoffman’s tragic death in 2014 sent shock waves around the film world; and his death created a void that might remain unfilled forever. Already one of the finest actors of his generation; what he could have achieved had been alive is beyond our comprehension. However, all we can do today is celebrate the man and the magic behind his craft; and that is exactly what we are intending to do, by listing our top 5 movies of Philip Seymour Hoffman. While choosing the best Philip Seymour Hoffman movies from his oeuvre was no mean feat, we have finally been able to put it together.
So, join us in this journey as we rediscover the magic of Philip Seymour Hoffman and his craft. Here is the list of top 5 movies of Philip Seymour Hoffman. You can watch some of these best Philip Seymour Hoffman movies on Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Prime.
5. Doubt (2008)
Set in the 1960s in a Catholic church in New York, ‘Doubt’ has Hoffman playing a charming priest who is accused of pedophilia. Based on a Pulitzer Prize winning stage play, ‘Doubt’ features some extraordinary acting by some of the finest actors of our generation, including Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. But it is Hoffman who steals the show with his brutally honest and emotional portrayal of a flawed human being. Hoffman manages to bring out various traits of his character with incredible depth; he is compassionate yet has a past that continues to haunt him. Ultimately, Hoffman delivers a performance draped in ambiguity, and in the company of some great actors, takes us on an emotionally charged roller-coaster ride; leaving us in doubt, wondering whether he is indeed guilty of the charges against him. One of the underrated Philip Seymour Hoffman movies.

4. Boogie Nights (1997)
Another masterclass from the oeuvre of P T Anderson, this was Hoffman’s breakout film, the one which finally launched his career as an actor after years in oblivion. A movie chronicling the rise and fall of porn-star Dirk Diggler during the golden age of pornography in the 70s and the 80s, it has Hoffman playing the supporting role of Scotty J, a professional sound mixer secretly in love with Diggler. But what Hoffman does to this minor character is beyond words; he gives emotional depth to an unabashed loser, making us connect with his tragic plight. Hoffman uses everything at his disposal, from his childlike innocence to his obese physique to great effect, and manages to shine through in every frame he is in. A sequence where Scotty awkwardly confesses his love for Diggler and attempts to kiss him, is executed with absolute perfection. In portraying a hopelessly vulnerable man tormented by his love and sexuality, Hoffman displays his incredible range and versatility as an actor.

3. The Master (2012)
P T Anderson is the kind of filmmaker whose movies take time to grow on you, thanks mostly to his character driven cinematic approach rather than being plot driven. And that is why his films have given some of the finest performances we have ever seen; and ‘The Master’ is no different. The tale of an alcoholic World War II veteran’s relationship with the charismatic leader of a Scientology type movement, ‘The Master’ has Hoffman facing off with another acting genius, Joaquin Phoenix (as Freddie Quell). As an enigmatic philosophical leader who is enamored by a self-destructive maniac, Hoffman brings an earnestness to the character that makes him believable. A calm, controlled man from the outside, Lancaster Dodd has a darker, more vicious side to himself which his sees in Freddie. A layered performance with uncharacteristic brilliance, Hoffman creates a fascinating man who incidentally believes in his own absurdities.

2. Capote (2005)
With his first performance in a leading role, ‘Capote’ finally established Hoffman as one of the finest actors of his generation. A biopic on the famous American author Truman Capote, ‘Capote’ has Hoffman playing the author in the years leading up to the publication of his true crime novel In Cold Blood. In chronicling the emotional journey of a man obsessed with his work, Hoffman literally transforms into Capote, perfectly portraying the subtle eccentricities that made the man an enigmatic figure. With his high-pitched voice and odd mannerisms, Capote is not your usual guy-next-door, and Hoffman brings out these physical characteristics of his, while slowing slipping into the mind of the man. As we see Capote’s work slowly taking its toll on his personal and professional life, we see him unraveling; revealing an emotionally fragile interior behind the cool exterior. Hoffman’s sumptuous portrayal of Capote is crafted with absolute perfection, and won him global acclaim and an Academy Award for Best Actor.

1. Synecdoche, New York (2008)
The directorial debut of the legendary screenwriter Charlie Kaufman, ‘Synecdoche, New York’ is one of those movies that comes only once in a lifetime. The story of Caden Cotard, a paranoid, insufferable theatre director struggling to come to terms with his own mortality; it is one of the saddest and most depressing films ever made; also probably the most poignant. A play on the idea of time and perceptive reality, the movie elegantly shifts from gritty realism to dreamlike surrealism as Caden struggles with his loneliness and neediness. While, the movie is perfect in its screenplay and other technicalities, it could have all gone in vain had it not been for Hoffman. In portraying the life of a middle-aged idiosyncratic man all the way to his death, Hoffman turns in a performance that one can only call “miraculous”. He brings all of Kaufman’s complex metaphysical and philosophical ideas to life, while playing a character that could well be any of us. Caden is paranoid about his death, he is lonely and he misses his family, and he loathes his existence. Hoffman manages to bring out all the emotional turmoil and horrors of his character with such sensitivity, it will blow you away. His sad eyes and melancholic face beautifully conveys not only the pain and fears deep within Caden, it is also opens a door into our own fears and insecurities as individuals, and in turn question our existence. ‘Synecdoche, New York’ is undoubtedly one of the finest cinematic experiences of the century and Hoffman’s performance is one of the ages; something which probably would never be reprised again.

See correction at end of article.
Profit tumbled last year at Momentive Specialty Chemical Inc.
The Columbus-based affiliate of Momentive Performance Materials Inc. of Albany, N.Y., turned a profit of $118 million in 2011, down 44.9 percent from the $214 million it earned in 2010. Revenue increased by 13 percent to $5.2 billion for the year, the company said in a press release.
In the fourth quarter ended Dec. 31, Momentive lost $47 million, compared with a profit of $53 million a year ago. The company said “softer global demand and unfavorable product mix due to declines in certain higher-margin products” hurt earnings. Revenue fell to $1.15 billion from $1.17 billion in 2010.
“In response to softer demand and as part of our strategy to aggressively focus on high-growth regions of the world, we’ve continued to adjust our manufacturing footprint in the fourth quarter of 2011 and recently announced the closure of four facilities in our Forest Products Resins segment and one facility in our Epoxy, Phenolic and Coating Resins segment,” CEO Craig Morrison said in the release. “We continue to reallocate our global resources and are aggressively expanding in the high-growth regions of the world, with six new plants that are operational or under construction in Korea, Brazil, Russia, India and China to help drive our future growth.”
The company in 2010 had been hit with a $171 million charge from “insurance recoveries associated with previous legal settlements” from its abandoned 2007 bid to acquire competitor Huntsman Corp., a deal that impacted its annual results for 2008 and 2009 as well.
An earlier version of this story put the Huntsman charges in 2011.

Sample Essay This essay seeks to discuss the American Revolution from the time of Sven…
During the American Revolution, there were several significant leaders who mostly served during the colonial period. Some of these leaders are discussed below.
King George III: King George III was the king of the Great Britain between 1760 -1820. He was the successor of his grandfather who had reigned till 1760. Though his methods were totally different, he was continuing the work of British Prime Minister William Pitt, the Great War minister who succeeded where other failed. George III was determined to recover the prerogative lost by his predecessors during their reign in the past decades. He succeeded this by first weakening the Whig party through bribery, coercion, and patronage. He was succeeded by his eldest son, Prince Regent.
William Pitt: Pitt was the prime minister of the British government during the seven yeas war. He was a Great War minister who succeeded where other failed, a strong character that fore so British success during the four year war. William entered parliament in 1735 and though his foundation promised very little success in his career, his strong character was a stronghold throughout his reign. During his time in the government, he always acted in the opposition.

An efficient algorithm combining the fast multipole method (FMM) and the discrete complex image method (DCIM) is presented for analyzing large-scale microstrip structures. Firstly, the effect of complex images' locations on the algorithm is discussed in detail. And a simple and efficient scheme is proposed which greatly enhances the performance of this FMM-DCIM hybrid method. On the other hand, the incomplete LU (ILU) preconditioner with a dual dropping strategy is also tested to study the effect of this preconditioner on the convergence rate of microstrip structures.And experimental results show that this preconditioner reduces the number of iterations substantially.Then the solution is obtained using it in conjunction with the generalized minimal residual (GMRES).The fast multipole method is used to speed up the matrix-vector product in iterations.Numerical results for microstrip antennas are presented to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of this method.

|This article is part of the FrackSwarm coverage of fracking.|
Produced water refers to effluents that rise to the surface during energy drilling or extraction. This includes water naturally occurring alongside energy deposits, as well as water injected into the ground during hydraulic fracturing. Oil and gas reservoirs have a natural water layer (formation water) that lies under the hydrocarbons. Oil reservoirs frequently contain large volumes of water, while gas reservoirs tend to have smaller quantities. To achieve maximum oil recovery, additional water is often injected into the reservoirs to help force the oil to the surface. Both the formation water and the injected water are eventually produced along with the oil and therefore as the field becomes depleted the produced water content of the oil increases.
By 2010, the United States was creating 15-20 billion barrels of produced water each year. Worldwide, estimates top 50 billion barrels. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, for every barrel of oil produced globally, an average of three barrels of water are produced. In the United States, the water to oil / gas ratio (WOR) averages seven barrels of water to one of oil. In the worst cases, the WOR reaches 50 to 1. Energy companies pay between $3 – $12 to dispose of each barrel of produced water.
Traditionally, produced water is stored temporarily in containment pits. It is then handled one of two ways: either trucks haul the water to treatment facilities or the water is evaporated in pits and then the dry dregs are trucked to landfills or designated dumping sites.

Seed Germination Database
I grow a large percentage of my flowers from seeds, since that is cheaper than purchasing plants. I also like the challenge, as some of them can be very difficult to germinate. So they provide entertainment of sorts for me over the winter months!
The plants listed in this database are those that I have tried to grow from seed at one time or another. As another family member has charge of the vegetables, this database includes mostly flowers--annuals, perennials, and tropicals--and a few unusual herbs.
I got my information from a variety of sources, including Norman C. Deno's excellent book, Seed Germination Theory and Practice, and its supplements, Eileen Powell's The Gardener's A-Z Guide to Growing Flowers from Seed to Bloom, and Alan Toogood's Plant Propagation. Online sources include The Thompson and Morgan Successful Seed Raising Guide and Tom Clothier's Garden Walk and Talk .
Of course, the sources frequently don't agree with each other--or with my own experience. In that case, I just have to make an educated guess as to who's right! A good rule of thumb is that hardy annuals and perennials should be started in cooler conditions than tender annuals and tropicals. But I generally keep even the tender annuals and tropicals at temperatures in the 60's after they are up. Cooler temperatures produce stockier--and generally healthier--seedlings.
I would recommend that anyone interested in starting plants from seeds purchase at least one shoplight--with flourescent bulbs and a timer--and keep the emerging seedlings under that illumination. They will grow straighter there than on windowsills, and an electric "sun" is more dependable during the dark months. It's also best to use a "soilless" starting mix, like Pro-mix, rather than regular garden dirt.
Seeds that require long periods of pretreatment can be kept in damp paper towels enclosed in Baggies instead of in soil. They will take up much less room in your refrigerator or coldroom that way! Besides, family members who aren't gardeners tend to be a bit squeamish about flats of dirt among the leftovers. For more information on the paper towel method, see Norman Deno's book.
As seeds sown outdoors tend to get washed away or eaten by rodents, I plant those that need outdoor temperatures in a small flat inside an empty ice cream bucket. Then I snap the lid onto the bucket and put it under a table on our porch. The lid not only keeps rodents out, it keeps the soil inside moist over a long period of time.
Below are the codes you will need to understand the germination instructions. And, at the top of this page, you will find links to the pages where the different types of plants are listed alphabetically by their Latin names. Have fun!
W: "Warm" (70-80 degrees)
C: "Cool" (60-70 degrees)
O: "Outdoor" (Start seeds outdoors, as they require varying temperatures.)
40: Refrigerate at 40 degrees until germination begins.
40-70: Refrigerate at 40 degrees for 3 months, then move to 70 degrees.
70-40: Keep for 3 months at 70 degrees, then move to 40 degrees.
C & S: Chip seeds and soak them overnight before planting.
CSO: Commercial seed only.
GA: Soak seeds overnight in water treated with gibberellic acid.
MBF: Seeds must be fresh for best results (planted soon after they are harvested).
SBW: Pour boiling water over seeds and let them soak overnight.
SD: Rub seeds on an emery board and soak them overnight before planting.
SK: Soak seeds in water overnight before planting them.
SM: Soak seeds overnight in water treated with liquid smoke.
WA: Soak seeds, changing water every day, for a week before planting.
L: Light required. Press seeds into surface of soil, but don't cover them.
JC: Just cover. Barely cover the seeds with soil, about 1/16 of an inch.
1/8": Cover with an eighth of an inch of soil.
1/4": Cover with a fourth of an inch of soil.
1/2": Cover with a half inch of soil.
D: Dark needed. Cover the flat until the seeds begin to germinate.
UP: Plant seeds upright with tip protruding slightly above soil surface.
Speed of Germination:
VQ: Very quick. (2-9 days)
Q: Quick. 10-19 days
P: Pokey. (20-29 days)
VP: Very pokey. (30 days or more)
1. Seeds with hard and shiny or fuzzy coats should be either sanded or nicked.
2. Seeds enclosed in berries should be soaked for several days--with water changed frequently--until all pulp is removed.

Ozone is a “supercharged” version of oxygen which makes it unique in helping the body to heal. Its increased energy means that it can work quickly to improve the function of the immune system, which in turn means it is able to effectively fight “foreign bodies” in the body.
The body’s immune system naturally produces ozone to help it to do its job. If the body becomes depleted of oxygen, which is common in many people, the immune system struggles to perform its task and various conditions are allowed to thrive including bacteria, viruses, autoimmune disease and more.
Ozone can help the body to heal by:
- reducing the clogging of blood cells
- improving circulation and oxygen supply
- decreasing uric acid
- killing viruses, bacteria and fungus
- improving the activity of the white blood cells
- detoxifying the liver
- slowing down the aging process
History of Ozone Therapy
It was German chemist Christian Friedrich Schönbein who first synthesized ozone and it was his collaborator, Liebig who gave the name “ozonized oxygen”. Ozone therapy as we now know it, then went through various cycles including being administered in the form of gas insufflations in animals and humans as early as 1857.
In 1870, the German doctor Lender made a breakthrough discovery of the antimicrobial properties of ozone and published the first report on its use as a purifier of blood. America joined the interest in ozone in 1885, when the Florida Medical Association published a textbook by Dr. Kenworth on the medical applications of ozone.
Various further chapters in the history of ozone therapy were written and in 1911, Dr. Noble Eberhart, head of the Department of Physiology of Loyola Chicago University, described how he used ozone to treat tuberculosis, anemia, chlorosis, tinnitus, whooping cough, asthma, bronchitis, hay fever, insomnia, pneumonia, diabetes, gout and syphilis.
Since the 1950s, ozone treatments have been widely administered to European patients suffering from chronic disease, and it is now widely applied in practices in more than 50 countries around the world. Ozone therapy is quickly growing in popularity in the U.S., with an increasing number of practitioners offering it to their patients who have difficult chronic diseases.
Who Can Benefit from Ozone Treatments?
Restoring health with ozone is a very natural process and an increasing number of practitioners are using ozone therapy in their practices. Most patients are very comfortable with ozone treatments because they are reasonably non-invasive and can have fast-acting results.
Because ozone therapy provides the body’s immune system with the correct tools to do its job can be used to fight almost any condition including cancer, Lyme disease, fibromyalgia, herpes, Hashimotos thyroiditis, systemic lupus, colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, diabetes type 1 and Crohn’s disease and almost all conditions you can name.
Medically administered it is very effective as an antibacterial, germicidal, and anti-fungicidal agent.
Some of the ways that ozone therapy can be administered include: through the ears, vaginally, rectally, into the bladder, topically via an ozone steam sauna and via various IV applications.

UFO, a British hard rock band, may possibly have had more success / popularity in Europe than it ever had in the US / North America, but either way ... do you know much about them or own any of their music?
UFO, founded back ca. 1969, may also be one of those under-valued bands, especially in terms of their live albums.
"Strangers in the Night" seems to be a true classic among classics; it was UFO's last concert performance with guitarist Michael Schenker (too bad he had a drinking problem ...). The album is critcally aclaimed, and mentioned as one of the greatest live albums of all time, let alone in the era that it was recorded (1978).
I just counted: there are 35 former members of this band, that span the timeline of the band. That's a lot of musicians to go through. And yet, they have persisted. They've recorded a slew of albums and in 2011, EMI released a box set of 6 albums from the Michael Schenker era, "The Chrysalis Years, 1973-1979" ; they released their 20th studio album in 2012, "Seven Deadly."
The second box set, years 1980-1986, was not seen in as positive a light, as those years found the band in a deep decline.
Sadly, the band's descent ultimately came from a combination of factors including drugs, alcohol, personnel issues, and very pedestrian song writing. Much of the material during their descent was a mixed bag, not all bad by any means, but a downfall from the heights where they once resided.
The band is thought to be under-valued, due to the uneven nature of its output.
Any thoughts? They're still touring, but their turf does not seem to include North America.
