Abstract: QS-9000 is the name given to the Quality System Requirements of the automotive industry which were developed by Chrysler, Ford, General Motors and major truck manufacturers and issued in 1994. QS-9000 is sometimes seen as being identical to ISO 9000. However, QS-9000 adds clauses to many of the ISO 9000 elements. Some of the differences in QS-9000 and ISO-9000 and the responsibilities of each employee under QS-9000 are given in this paper. This paper also describes the two types of audits, how employees should respond to audits, and the QS-9000 Quality Statement. Other terminology unique to QS-9000 is also given.
QS 9000 is the name given to the Quality System Requirements of the automotive industry which were developed by Chrysler, Ford, General Motors and major truck manufacturers and issued in late 1994. QS-9000 replaces such quality system requirements as Ford Q-101, Chrysler's Supplier Quality Assurance Manual, GM's NAO Targets for Excellence and the Truck Manufacturer's quality system manuals. The influence of QS-9000 is being seen throughout the automotive industry as it has virtually eliminated varying demands and waste associated with redundant systems. Proof of conformance to QS-9000 is certification/registration by an accredited third party such as Underwriter's Laboratories (UL) or the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS). Companies that become registered under QS-9000 will be considered to have higher standards and better quality products. This paper will describe the steps a company needs to take to achieve this goal.
QS-9000 will help companies to stay ahead of their competition. It will do this by filling gaps in the business and quality systems that can cause problems. QS-9000 eliminates redundant and unnecessary work practices. QS-9000 tells current and potential customers that the product has consistent quality and is manufactured under controlled conditions. This system is globally accepted as proof of quality in the automotive industry and is also a major customer requirement.
QS-9000 is sometimes seen as being identical to ISO 9000, but this is not true. Even though each element of ISO 9000 is an element of QS-9000, QS-9000 adds clauses to the majority of the ISO 9000 elements. For example, QS-9000 adds requirements for a business plan, tracking customer satisfaction and bench marking to element 4.1 of ISO 9000, Management Responsibility. QS-9000 also uses sector-specific requirements. The following requirements are not based on ISO 9000:
In order to become QS-9000 certified, a company must first prepare its staff for the challenge that awaits them. Each employee will have responsibilities under QS-9000. Once time-studies, machine and operator layout and production rates have been set by the industrial engineer, then some of these responsibilities include:
When the employees are prepared for the responsibilities that await them, they will be randomly audited by two types of auditors:
1. Internal auditor: A team of people who are employed by your company.
2. External auditor: A customer representative of the QS-9000 certification auditor. The auditor's questions may include:
The auditor might then ask specific questions concerning the procedure. Examples include:
The auditor may also ask to see any forms you fill out or records you have about your job. In many cases an employee will get nervous when an auditor asks a question. Good advice to give an employee on answering an auditor's question would be to relax. The auditor is probably just as nervous as you are. Be honest. The auditor may already know the truth. Be polite and the audit should go quickly. Show the auditor your work instructions (methods, visual aids). Be sure the way you explain how you do your job matches with the work instructions. Point out the Quality Policy Statement to the auditor and read it from the card. Be able to tell the auditor what the Quality Policy means to you in your own words. If you do not understand the question, ask the auditor to say it again or explain. Do not try to answer a question that you do not understand. Do not argue with the auditor. If you feel he or she did not understand your answer, carefully explain the answer to the auditor. Audits will normally be scheduled and the company will be notified. Therefore each department will have time to prepare, and they will usually have a practice audit so that everyone is prepared. However, the company should always be prepared for an audit by having their proceduresand quality policy statement ready.
Procedures should not be followed only when there is an audit. The purpose of the QS-9000 system is to consistantly produce a quality product. If procedures are followed only at the time of the audit the associates will not be comfortable or knowledgeable with them when the auditors come through. Therefore receiving certification becomes much more unlikely. More importantly, the goal of consistant production of a quality product will more than likely have been defeated.
The most important thing to remember with QS-9000 and receiving certification is that it is not a productivity comparison with other companies nor even a quality comparison. It is simply a check to see if you, as a department or company, are doing what you said you have been doing everytime you produce a part or product.
The QS-9000 Quality Statement tells of your company's objectives for quality and commitment to quality, and is relevant to company goals and customer needs and expectations. The Quality Statement will be given to all associates in the form of a laminated card that they must keep with them at all times. The Quality Statement should be posted in all areas of the facility. Though it is not necessary for each associate to memorize the quality policy statement, they should be able to read it from the card or wall and tell what it means to them. All management personnel must know the quality policy statement.
QS-9000 was developed to ensure customer satisfaction beginning with conformance to fundamental quality requirements and utilizing such concepts as continuous improvement, defect prevention, and the reduction of variation and waste in the supply chain. QS-9000 is an expansion or adaption of ISO-9000 that is more comprehensive and more applicable to the automobile industry and its suppliers.

Elastomers the backside of the elastomer will show
Elastomers swell:

Elastomer swell can
occur either when the elastomer is affected by production fluids or treatment
chemical that are incompatible with it (chemical swell) or due to an increase
in temperature (thermal swell).

Chemical swell is
generally caused by the elastomer coming in contact with high API gravity crude
oils or incompatible treating chemicals; both of which have a fairly high
percentage of aromatics. Chemical swell generally permanent and nonreversible
once the
Source of the swelling
has been removed.

Thermal swell on the
other hand is purely due to an elevation in temperature resulting in the
elastomer expanding due to this increase in temperature. This expansion also
results in an increase in the interference fit between the rotor and stator
thereby in an increase in operating torque as well. Thermal swelling can be
predicted and is not permanent. Once the temperature decrease the thermal
expression of the elastomer also decreases.

Bond failure:

A bond failure occurs
when the bonding agent that keeps the elastomer in the stator tube fails.
This can occur at two
interface is between the bonding agent and the elastomer. In this instance,
there is no elastomer test on the stator tube but there is bonding agent. A
view of the backside of the elastomer will show it to be smooth. The stator
tube will also be smooth with a gray or black color.

Explosive Decompression:

Explosive decomposition
is also known as Gas permeation occurs when gas; under pressure; enters the
elastomer matrix and expands due to a pressure drop. When the gas expands, it
often results in blister or bubbles forming within the elastomer. This pressure
drop can be the results of the event such as the fluid level equalizing in the
wellbore after a shut down or from the pulling of the pump.
 The expanding gas within the elastomer matrix
can sometimes expand to the point that the elastomer ruptures. This is called
explosive decompression. The rapidly
decompressing of the gas entrained within the elastomer matrix tears and chunks
the elastomer when it expands.

Delamination:

The word delamination
contains the word lamination which means "layer". In elastomeric terms, this
means that the elastomers had not knit through its cross-section resulting in
layer-like striation within the elastomer. This is often the result of
temperature during the injection process. These lamination or layers create
weak areas within the elastomers and a prime location for gas that has
permeated into the elastomers to gather. When a pressure drop occurs, the gas
has entered these laminated areas expands thereby tearing these weak areas.
Visually looking at the laminated areas, the internal surface of the laminated
are smooth; unlike a torn surface where the surface are rough and jagged.

Improper Rotor Spacing:

Improper rotor spacing
is not a material or application related failure but a failure due to improper
installation procedure. For a given set of well condition, the sucker rods will
stretch a given amount. This stretch is dependent upon the rod size, total
dynamic head and the effective cross-sectional areas of the pump. If the proper
amount of stretch is not accounted for, the rotor placement within the stator
could either be too high or too low. In either case, excess stresses are placed
on the rotor and sucker rods and may result in a torsional fatigue of the
either the rotor or the sucker rods.

In case of not enough space out:

Rotor runs on the tag
bar, thus putting the rotor in compression and potentially causing premature
failure of the rotor and tag bar.

If a torque anchor is
not used the additional torque of the rotor running on the tag bar could result
in the stator/tubing unscrewing.

In case of too much space out:

Reduced contact with
the pump stages & over pressuring of the pump or excessive unidirectional
bending of the rotor causing it to break.

Dry run:

A pump that has run dry
its elastomer hard, brittle and extensively cracked. In an extreme run dry
condition, the contour will be completely gone.

Abrasive wear:

Abrasive wear occurs
when the elastomer is worn from the presence of abrasives in the produced
fluids. As the percentage of abrasives increases, the chances of prematurely
wearing the seal lines that are formed by the interference fit between the
rotor and stator also increase. The hardness and angularity of the pumped
abrasive can also affect the wear rate.

The total differential
pressure seen across the pump as well as the pump's rotational speed play a key
role in how abrasive affect the elastomer. As a result of the elastomer
wearing, the slip within the pump increases and as a result, the production
will drop off.

 The data and the related case studies are
mentioned below at page no.6 & 7.

New Project To Place Denmark On The Military Space Technology Map
Space technology and satellites are not only important for monitoring climate change, for navigating ships and airplanes, and for communicating over long distances — they are also essential to the security of Denmark and the EU.
A new project develops a technology that makes it possible to monitor and identify military threats in space and on Earth. The AI-driven technology will contribute to process the vast data streams stemming from satellites and land-based sensors and thereby create the basis for using the space data and intelligence for military purposes.
The project, which goes under the name INTEGRAL and is a part of EU's SSAEW SC2, Space Situational Awareness – Space Command and Control, is supported with funds from the European Defence Fund and is a cooperation between DTU (Technical University of Denmark), the Danish company Space Inventor and the French defence and technology company Thales in Denmark.
The Danish company Space Inventor is going to play a key role in the project by contributing to the development of the prototype for INTEGRAL and finding an algorithm that can trace the orbit of satellites. With the awarded funds follow a significantly increased visibility on the international stage as well as access to knowledge and powerful networks.
A unique cooperation with massive potential The project is one of only 26 projects which have been approved by the EU Commission under the test program European Defence Industrial Development Program (EDIDP) in 2020. Thales sees great potential in the Danish Defence industry looking towards Europe.
"It is a unique project because we unite science and industry on multiple levels. We are, in Thales, a part of the Danish ecosystem within defence and also an international company with deep knowledge about the European defence market. We would like to contribute with this knowledge so that Danish companies can unlock the great potential which the Danish defence industry holds," said Tommy Ayouty, CEO, Thales Danmark, VP Thales Group in the Nordics.
Several Danish companies are participating in EU projects such as project SAURON for SSA Sensors and the space & defence project SSA Early Warning which both have received funds from EDIDP 2020. Along with INTEGRAL, these projects can improve Denmark's visibility within the defence and space sector and are expected to lay the foundation for further cooperation and to gather knowledge in connection with the surveillance of the Arctic in the future. The INTEGRAL project runs until 2023, at which point the parties involved can seek funds to continue the work.

"From start to finish, the CMP2500 battery solution is designed to provide power when and where you need it," said Carol Brower, Vice President of Operations, Custom Electronics, Inc. "Simplicity of design, ease of use and safety are top priorities we focused on when designing all system components. The design allows for continuous, uninterrupted power."
DoD and Partners Release Combined Space Operations Vision 2031
The United States joins Australia, Canada, France, Germany, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom in the joint release of the "Combined Space Operations (CSpO) Vision 2031."
CSpO is an initiative to address the overarching need to encourage responsible use of space, recognizing challenges to space sustainability, threats presented by technological advances, and the increasingly comprehensive and aggressive counterspace programs of other nation states.
The "CSpO Vision 2031" outlines the initiative's overarching purpose and highlights its guiding principles, including: freedom of use of space, responsible and sustainable use of space, partnering while recognizing sovereignty, and upholding international law.
These guiding principles steer the initiative's objectives and are supported by several lines of effort, from developing and operating resilient, interoperable architectures to fostering responsible military behaviors in space and sharing intelligence and information, all leading to the pursuit of a safe, secure, and sustainable space domain.
CSpO Principals last met in December of 2021, reaffirming their nations' support to the Vision, including the intent to prevent conflicts extending to or originating in space and to hold accountable those who threaten the safety of the space environment and the space assets of others.
Representatives from the Department of Defense specifically addressed the importance of information sharing, leading to greater cooperation and interoperability, all key CSpO components.
Combined Space Operations Vision 2031
Vision Partners in national security space operations leading as responsible actors and seeking and prepared to protect and defend against hostile space activities in accordance with applicable international law.
Generate and improve cooperation, coordination, and interoperability opportunities to sustain freedom of action in space, optimize resources, enhance mission assurance and resilience, and prevent conflict.
The Importance of Space
Space is integral to modern multi-domain military operations and provides strategic advantage. Space-based capabilities deliver a wide range of effects that underpin daily life, including communications, navigation, remote sensing, Earth observation, weather services, and financial transactions. Maintaining and supporting the availability of these capabilities are in the interest of each nation. Continued delivery of these capabilities requires complete access to and freedom to operate in space.
Space has evolved into a contested and congested operational domain. As space becomes more crowded, the security and stability of this critical domain are endangered. Some nations have developed capabilities designed to deny, degrade, and disrupt access to and utilization of space-based capabilities.
These nations have demonstrated the ability to hold space-based capabilities at risk and to target critical assets in an effort to reduce our military effectiveness in a crisis or conflict. Further, the lack of widely accepted norms of responsible behavior and historical practice The convergence of these factors creates compelling strategic and operational urgency that serves as a call to action. We share a desire to accelerate and improve our ability to conduct combined military space operations, as responsible space actors, in order to maintain security and prevent escalation in space and on Earth. We seek to be prepared to protect our national interests and the peaceful use of space.
Shared Guiding Principles
The following guiding principles are shared broadly among the Participants in the Combined Space Operations (CSpO) Initiative Memorandum of Understanding (MoU):
- Freedom of Use of Space: Militaries have an important role in contributing to international efforts to ensure freedom of access to and use of space. CSpO Participants work to ensure our national security space operations promote a secure, stable, safe, peaceful, and operationally sustainable space domain.
- Responsible and Sustainable Use of Space: The world is reliant on space- based systems —- activities in space have consequences across the spectrum of human activity. CSpO Participants pursue activities that endeavor to minimize the creation of long-lived space debris and contribute to the enduring sustainability of the outer space environment.
- Partnering While Upholding Sovereignty: CSpO Participants recognize and uphold the rights of each Participant to act and communicate independently and in a manner commensurate with their own national policies and interests. National efforts are synchronized, where appropriate, through clear and open dialogue.
- Upholding International Law: Each Participant conducts activities in accordance with applicable international law, including the Outer Space Treaty, the UN Charter, and, in case of armed conflict, with the law of armed conflict.
To realize our vision and mission, CSpO Participants affirm the following objectives to guide our national and collective actions:
- Prevent conflicts – CSpO Participants seek to prevent conflict, including conflict extending to or originating in space. By strengthening coordination, building resiliency, promoting responsible behavior in space, enhancing partnership, and communicating transparently, we improve our national and collective abilities to prevent conflict and to promote security and stability in all domains
- Unity of Effort – CSpO Participants seek to enable combined space operations by sharing information across multiple classification levels – from the strategic to the operational and tactical levels, and at a pace that is operationally relevant – through real-time synchronized networked operations centers operated by a workforce with common training.
- Space Mission Assurance - CSpO Participants seek to establish and maintain a robust, responsive, and interoperable space infrastructure enabling continued space effects in the face of adverse action or changes to the space domain. Ensuring the continued function and resilience of equipment, facilities, networks, information and information systems, personnel, infrastructure, and supply chains, we seek to deny the benefit

Black-billed Amazon (Amazona agilis) - Wiki
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[Photo] Black-billed Amazon (Amazona agilis). BARRABAND, Jacques (1767/8-1809) [Le Petit perroquet vert (Black-billed Amazon [Amazona agilis])]. From Histoire Naturelle des Perroquets (by Fran??ois Levaillant, _PHONE_). Image from _URL_
The Black-billed Amazon, Amazona agilis, is a parrot endemic to Jamaica. Sometimes called the Black-billed Parrot, this Amazon parrot is mostly green with small patches of red on the wing and sometimes flecked on the head. Its bill makes it easy to separate from most other Amazons, including the Yellow-billed Amazon, which also lives in Jamaica.
The Black-billed Amazon lives in mountainous rainforest, usually limestone rainforest, feeding on fruit, seeds, and nuts, and will take cultivated fruit like mangos, papayas and cucumbers as well as wild fruits.
The Black-billed Amazon was once as common as the Yellow-billed Amazon, but has become much rarer due to deforestation and hurricane damage fragmenting its forest, poaching for food and the pet trade in wild parrots.

Description:
P.G. Simmonds,A. J.Manning,R.G. Derwent, P. Ciais,M.Ramonet, V. Kazan and D. Ryall, A burning question. Can recent growth rate anomalies in the greenhouse gases be attributed to large-scale biomass burning events?, Atmos. Environ., 2005, 39, 2513–2517.
Abstract

Simultaneous in situ measurements of carbon dioxide (CO2) and the principal gases linked to biomass burning at the Mace Head Observatory, Ireland, reveal a strong correlation in 1998-99 and 2002-03, both periods with intense global fires. CO2, carbon monoxide (CO), methane (CH4), hydrogen (H2), ozone (O3) and methyl chloride (CH3Cl), all have similar rates of accumulation during these time frames. These perturbations imply a causal relationship between large-scale biomass burning events and the interannual variability of these gases.

Cadcorp sponsored two recent GIS and mapping events in London and Manchester, with speakers from L&Q, Greenfields Community Housing, Wakefield & District Housing and Emapsite.
Graham Naggs from L&Q explained how GIS can be easily funded on the back of the cost savings made in negotiating grounds maintenance contracts alone, but he also pointed out how the same spatial data captured to support procurement in grounds maintenance can also be used for other purposes, with the result that L&Q is now using the same technology and data to ensure fair and transparent service charging for its residents, allocating housing patches to its officers and providing geographic profiles of its tenants.
Greenfields Community Housing's James Elms reported that it was using GIS to provide a graphical and geographical interface to its asset and housing management systems from Orchard and Keystone. As a result, its customer service centre now has a fast and intuitive map-based way to locate and retrieve key data from those applications. Greenfields is also using GIS in tree condition surveys and for the management of street lighting. Its plans for the future include using GIS to identify clusters of tenants in rent arrears, properties in need of repair, and in the planning and execution of house condition surveys.
Paul Wake from Wakefield & District Housing talked about how to implement a successful GIS, based on its experience of implementing its second GIS. He explained how WDH had managed to implement the new system in just nine weeks, including data transfer and training. Over 1,000 WDH employees now have access to the mapping system, with a resulting saving of £13,000 per year.
Lee Williams from data provisioning company Emapsite gave a quick tour of the different data sources available to housing providers. These include free and open data, as well as licensed data from Ordnance Survey and other providers. He stressed the importance of understanding what you want to do with the data so that you avoid the cost of over-specification and the limitations of under-specification.

Etnies is fighting for our planet. We skate, surf, snowboard and ride BMX all on our ONE planet. It's all we have and we want to keep it healthy so we can keep doing what we love. Now, etnies' green path to a healthier planet is continuing by creating a brand new forest of more than 35,000 trees through its "Buy a Shoe, Plant a Tree" project. It's simple, for every pair of Jameson 2 Eco shoes sold, we will plant one tree in Costa Rica in what will become the etnies Rainforest. We never thought we'd have our own rainforest, but with your help, this green goal is coming true. The etnies Rainforest will absorb approximately 6,930 tons of CO2 from the Earth's atmosphere throughout the trees' lifetime. To put it visually, this represents 465,051,360 etnies shoe boxes worth of CO2, placed end-to-end and wrapped around the earth more than three and a half times.

How to Fix Flickering Video on iPhone
Disclosure: When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission.
Some Apple iPhone users are experiencing flickering or blinking video when recording or shooting video on their devices. If you have experienced this, I provide helpful information on how to fix the problem of flickering video on iPhone models, especially iPhone 12, 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max which seem to be especially plagued by this issue. Users report that their screens blink and flicker in videos. Mister Mobility has not reported experiencing it on his iPhone SE 2022, though, so it does not seem to be a problem across the board.
What exactly is the flickering video on iPhone about? Flickering, shimmering, or blinking on electronic displays is often a result of a lack of synchronization between the shutter speed/frame rate of the camera and the frequency of the AC power that the lights are plugged in to. This is known as the strobe effect. To prevent shimmering, the video frequency should synchronise with the frequency of the electric current. There are a few easy options to go about this.
How to fix flickering video on iPhone
There are a number of ways to fix the issue of flickering video on iPhone
Change to a lower frame rate
The first solution to the problem of blinking or flickering video on iPhone is to use a shutter speed/frame rate that is slower than the frequency of the AC power. For example, in countries like the United States, Canada, and Mexico, the AC mains power runs at 60 cycles per second, so try shooting at frame rate that is lower than that but that syncs with 60Hz. For example, try 30 fps (frames per second).
This is especially a good solution if you are shooting indoors under artificial lighting. If you are unable to do this in the default camera of your iPhone, download and install a 3rd party camera app, like Moment or Filmic Pro. These apps give you more control over frame rates and shutter speed.
Change the shutter speed to match your country's power mains
If you are not in the US, Canada, Mexico, or any other country using 60Hz current, your country's mains power likely runs at 50Hz. Simply use shutter speeds of 1/25, 1/50, 1/100 or any factor of 50. These synchronise well with 50Hz current and can help fix the flickering video on iPhone.
Shoot or record in PAL format
If you are located outside of North America where your mains current is 50Hz, another way to eliminate the flickering video on iPhone is to do your video recording in PAL (Phase Alternating Line) format, which is widely used in most of the rest of the world. PAL shoots videos at 25 fps, which should eliminate the flickering when recording video with your iPhone.
To change the video recording format to PAL on your iPhone, open Settings, go to Camera, and select Record Video. From the options listed, select any with PAL in it. One option allows you to shoot in PAL format at 1080p quality, and another at 4K quality. Both record at 25 fps. Select one and you are ready to start shooting your flicker-free videos.
Adjust the exposure
Another way to fix the flickering video on iPhone issue is to adjust the exposure: Tap on the area of the screen where the lighting is flickering. This will adjust the exposure and focus settings specifically for that area. The camera will try to balance the exposure and reduce the flickering effect.
Disable auto-brightness
You can disable auto-brightness on your iPhone to stop the flickering video issue. Sometimes, the auto-brightness feature can cause flickering issues, especially when there are rapid changes in lighting conditions. To turn off auto-brightness, go to "Settings," then "Display & Brightness," and toggle off the "Auto-Brightness" option.
Lastly
Occasionally, software glitches or temporary issues may cause this flickering video on iPhone problem. Restarting your iPhone can help resolve such issues. Press and hold the power button until the "slide to power off" option appears, then slide to turn off your device. Wait a few seconds, then press and hold the power button again to turn it back on.
These are the three ways to get rid of the flickering you see when recording a video with your Apple iPhone. If the problem persists after trying these steps, it's advisable to contact Apple Support or visit an authorized service center for further assistance, as there could be a hardware issue with your iPhone's camera.

Your plastic chopping board could be harbouring potentially deadly bacteria including salmonella and E.coli.
With their wipe clean services, many cooks mistakenly believe plastic chopping boards are the way forward to stop bacteria from raw meat contaminating their food.
However several shocking studies have revealed bacteria actually multiplies much quicker on plastic boards, which could leave you more likely to give yourself a bout of food poisoning - or worse.
A study by the University of Wisconsin found that bacteria including potentially deadly salmonella left overnight on a plastic chopping board "thrived and multiplied."
Perhaps surprisingly, the bacteria on a wooden chopping board did not survive overnight.
Many believe this is because plastic boards, which wear out quickly, are more likely to have dents and grooves caused by cutting.
These dents and grooves make them much harder to clean and provide the perfect environment for bacteria to thrive and multiply.
Researchers also raised concerns that mould can grow under the surface of plastic boards, leading to staining and potential health risks.
Salmonella infections, known as salmonellosis, can prove deadly to children, the elderly or those with a weakened immune systems.
However - the problem can be avoided if you have a dishwasher.
Dr Ben Chapman, an associate professor and food safety specialist at North Carolina State University says the high temperatures inside a dishwasher will kill bacteria on a plastic chopping board, while wooden boards are not suitable for dishwashers.
His advice is to use a plastic chopping board for raw meat, and wash it in a dishwasher. However, for ready prepared foods or vegetables, wooden boards are the preferred alternative.
Cooking website AllRecipes recommends the best way to prevent illness is to clean chopping boards with hot water and soap before and after each time they're used, as well as drying them with a towel as soon as they're washed.

EA process is to create the opportunity for Indigenous nations to make a decision on consent. It is an objective that proponents, the Province and Indigenous nations should be working to achieve. The new EA process facilitates that objective throughout the process.
The EAO will work together and seek consensus with Indigenous nations at a technical level throughout the entirety of the EA process, and there will also be key decisions points where Indigenous nations may express their consent, lack of consent or abstain from deciding on behalf of their communities. It is hoped that in the majority of cases – by working together – it will be possible to reach consensus on major issues so that the decisions of Indigenous nations and the Ministers align. Dispute resolution may also assist in this process. Where decisions do not align, Ministers will be legally required to provide reasons."
The new BC Environmental Assessment Act focuses on achieving consensus in decision-making and allowing Indigenous groups to communicate their consent or lack of consent at certain decision-points during the process. Dispute resolution processes are built in to assist where consensus is not achieved. Although ministerial discretion is maintained in respect of all final project approvals, the decision must take into account and provide reasons where consent has not been obtained.
This philosophy towards FPIC in the environmental assessment context could be extrapolated to the Province's views on applying FPIC in other situations and under other legislation. Indeed, the new decision-making agreement tool under the Declaration Act signals how the Province may seek to achieve FPIC in certain situations through negotiated agreements.
As there are still many unanswered questions about the potential impacts and reach of this new and historic piece of proposed legislation, we will continue to monitor Bill 41 as it proceeds through the BC Legislature.

The Round Table
For centuries the site of the Roman amphitheatre in Caerleon was known as 'King Arthur's Round Table'.
Back in the 1587 Thomas Churchyard wrote of Caerleon:
In Arthur's tyme, a table round,
Was whereat he sate:
As yet a plot of goodly ground,
Sets forth that rare estate...
It would surely have been an excellent place for a leader to address his followers.
Our theory is that somewhere in time the meaning shifted from 'a round meeting place' to a 'round table'.

The role of managerial accounting in today's business environment
Managerial accounting is responsible for giving managers information; its role has been changing ever since as the business environment becomes dynamic. Managerial accounting plays a major integral role by seeking to create immense value of a corporation through management of its resources. Additionally, managerial accounting helps the major stakeholders set goals that are achievable and lead it to attaining its great success. Therefore managerial accounting plays are of utter importance in decision making, controlling, planning and direction of operational activities in the business environment.
Cost drivers drive the consumption prices and the activity driver is responsible for changing consumption and the relation is a cause and effect relationship. Cost drivers are any activities carried out in an organization that will help to determine costs. Cost drivers include machine hours and labor hours. The cost drivers help in the allocation process as they are identified to different indirect costs and are then allocated to various cost centers basing on these cost drivers. Through the cost drivers the allocation process becomes more logical and practical.

Rago describes Economic Value Added analysis as a method of cost allocation that is meant to improve and measure efficiency. It is largely preferred since most manager's term earnings and dividends as irrelevant. EVA is preferred as it deals with the intrinsic market value.
This is a performance measure that is used to measure the efficiency and effectiveness of different investment ideas. It gives a corporation or individual insight on how to go about business results in the future. Although it is widely used performance tool, it has been criticized; telling managers to increase their ROI is not enough without them knowing what exactly increase ROI. Assessing performance of a manger using ROI may not be efficient as a new manager may come across committed costs from previous manager. (Sack, S. 2007)

Schulman in his book describes transfer pricing as to set pricing between related parties. There are reasons to skew transfer prices if allowed; through transfer pricing, tax administrators and customs officials have a goal for their corporation to maximize revenue, but transfer pricing brings a conflict to their goals since increased revenue of one reduces revenue of another. (Schulman, 1968)

PURPOSE: To measure the speed of light.
DESCRIPTION: A laser light pulse a few nanoseconds long is emitted by a light-emitting diode and immediately strikes a partially silvered mirror. The reflected light returns to a phototransistor to give the first pulse of the oscilloscope trace shown in the picture. The light transmitted through the partially silvered mirror reflects off a distant front-surface mirror, in the foreground of the picture, returning to the phototransistor to create the second pulse. The distance the laser beam tra vels, measured using a metric tape, and the elapsed time, determined from the oscilloscope trace, are used to calculate the speed of light. The separation of the two light pulses in the picture is about 16 nanoseconds.
SUGGESTIONS: A few percent measurement can be readily attained with about 20 feet between the apparatus and the mirror. Care must be used to position the light reflected from the distant mirror onto the phototransistor.
REFERENCES: (PIRA unknown)
EQUIPMENT: Speed of light module with oscilloscope, front surface mirror on moving stand, metric tape.
SETUP TIME: 5 min.

- endeavor •
Pronunciation: en-de-vêr • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Verb, intransitive
Meaning: To try hard, attempt, to take pains, to make an effort.
Notes: Today's Good Word is spelt endeavour in Jolly Old, like labour and colour. This word was immortalized on the ship that carried Captain James Cook on his "voyage of discovery" around the globe in the late 1660s. This trip made such an impression on history that we placed her name on the fifth and final NASA space shuttle to be built. The verb may be used as a noun, as in, "His work was a monumental endeavor." An endeavor is an extraordinary attempt; any lesser attempt is just a try.
In Play: As viewers of the British mystery series Inspector Morse will know, the good inspector preferred to be called just "Morse", without revealing his Christian name. Toward the end of the series we learned why: his father was an admirer of Captain Cook and in his fervor had named his son, Endeavour. Remember that endeavor means "to try hard": "Susan Liddy-Gates endeavored to retrieve the money Hans Opp had taken from his clients in a Ponzi scheme, but failed to do so."
Word History: Today's Good Word comes from the French phrase se mettre en devoir de faire quelque chose "to make it one's duty to do something". Devoir came from Old French dever "duty, obligation", in turn from Latin debere "to owe". The neuter past participle of debere is debitum, which also served as a noun meaning "thing owed". English borrowed its terms debit and debt from this word, even while it was borrowing its French grandchildren. Debere originally meant "to deprive someone of something", because it came from Latin de- "away, un-" + habere "to have". (We shall endeavor now to offer Chris Berry the show of gratitude he so deserves for submitting today's extraordinarily Good Word through the Alpha Agora.)

Statistical hybridization of normal and Weibull distributions with its properties and applicationsAuthor(s):
Akintunde Oyetunde AAbstract:
The normal distribution is one of the most popular probability distributions with applications to real life data. In this research paper, an extension of this distribution together with Weibull distribution called the Weimal distribution which is believed to provide greater flexibility to model scenarios involving skewed data was proposed. The probability density function and cumulative distribution function of the new distribution can be represented as a linear combination of exponential normal density functions. Analytical expressions for some mathematical quantities comprising of moments, moment generating generating function, characteristic function and order statistics were presented. The estimation of the proposed distribution's parameters was undertaken using the method of maximum likelihood estimation. Two data sets were used for illustration and performance evaluation of the proposed model. The results of the comparative analysis to other baseline models show that the proposed distribution would be more appropriate when dealing with skewed data.Pages: 62-68 | Views: 567 | Downloads: 14Download Full Article: Click Here

The Determinants of Environmental Awareness and Behavior
AbstractThis paper investigates the determinants of environmental values across countries. Its purpose is to put the role of economic affluence into perspective by challenging the conventional wisdom that states that the level of economic affluence influences the level of environmental concern expressed by the population. While this paper does not question the fact that large scale environmental defensive activities are likely to be influenced by the level of income in a country, it is hypothesized that environmental awareness and individual involvement in environmental protection need not be a function of the level of economic affluence. To test this hypothesis, three variables are created-Positive Environmental Attitudes, Willingness to Pay to Protect the Environment, and Human-Environment Relationship-using data from the World Values Survey (_PHONE_). The variables are regressed against a set of economic, demographic, political, psychological and education variables. The results show that economic affluence has, at best, a marginal direct influence on environmental awareness and no direct impact on environmental behavior. The paper demonstrates that the degree of urbanization, the level of subjective well-being and the level of income equality have direct effects on awareness, while education, population pressure and happiness are significantly correlated with environmental behavior.

Background: Multimodal MRI captures information about brain macro- and micro-structure, which can be combined in morphometric similarity networks to derive a detailed "fingerprint" of the anatomical properties of individual brains (1). We aimed to test the hypotheses that these fingerprints can be used to derive a data-driven metric of brain maturation, the Relative Brain Network Maturation Index (RBNMI), and that RBNMI differs between preterm infants at term equivalent age and term infants.
Methods: We combined data from different imaging sequences (diffusion and structural MRI) to extract multiple properties from cortical and sub-cortical brain regions (e.g., regional volumes, diffusion tensor-derived metrics, neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging features) which were used to construct individual morphometric similarity networks (1). A regression model was trained to predict postmenstrual age (PMA) at the time of scanning from inter-regional connections. We then derived the relative brain network maturation index (RBNMI) by measuring the difference between apparent (i.e., predicted) and actual age (2). This approach was validated on data from the Theirworld Edinburgh Birth Cohort (TEBC) and the developing Human Connectome Project (dHCP) (PMA range: 37-45 weeks). Ethical approval for use of TEBC from NRES was obtained.
Results: The best performing model in the age prediction task was based on the following features: regional volume, the ratio of T1-weighted and T2-weighted signal intensity, fractional anisotropy, axial and radial diffusivity, intracellular volume fraction, orientation dispersion index and isotropic volume fraction.
A data-driven metric of atypical brain development in preterm birth
The model consistently predicted preterm infants to be younger than their actual age (the box plots on the left depict the distribution of the RBNMI in the term and preterm populations). The connections involved in age prediction (shown in the chord diagram on the right) were predominantly located in fronto-temporal and subcortical regions, posterior cingulate cortex, brain stem and cerebellum.
Conclusion: Morphometric similarity networks combined information from multiple image features to detect dysmaturity in the developing brain. The RBNMI offers a data driven and tractable metric for quantifying atypical brain development associated with preterm birth.
Acknowledgement: Part of these results were obtained using data made available from the Developing Human Connectome Project funded by the European Research Council under the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP/2007-2013) / ERC Grant Agreement no. 319456.

:eight_spoked_asterisk: How do I check the air pressure in my gas tank?
If an air compressor has a small metal cylinder at the top of the handle, it is a pressure gauge. Some smaller gas stations may not have an air compressor or pressure gauge. If there is a mechanic at the gas station, you can ask him to check your pressure.
:diamond_shape_with_a_dot_inside: How do I find the pressure gauge at a gas station?
If you can't find a pressure gauge at a gas station, ask the salesperson behind the counter to find out where it is. You can usually find it next to an air compressor and a vacuum cleaner. If you live in Connecticut or California, the pressure gauge and air compressor are free to use.
:diamond_shape_with_a_dot_inside: Why does check tire pressure light keeps coming on?
When the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) warning light on the dashboard comes on, it generally means that the air pressure in one or more tires is lower than expected. The light can also be accidentally activated by the wrong sensor, and it can also turn on and off in seemingly random ways.
Find a gas station on my route
Why should I Check my tire pressure?
Check the tire pressure when the tires are cold. Tires get hot and expand while driving. If you check the tire pressure immediately after a ride, the pressure will be inaccurate and the tires may be inflated to the wrong value. Let the belt cool for at least half an hour.
How do I check the tire pressure?
To check the Goodyear tire pressure, use a tire pressure gauge and compare it to the recommended tire pressure. For recommended tire pressures, see the instruction manual on the edge of the vehicle door, on the fuel cap, on the door pillar or on the glove compartment.
What does the tyre pressure warning light actually mean?
Why is the low tire pressure warning light on? Natural air loss and cold weather. Tire pressures naturally drop every month. So if you haven't checked them regularly, this is most likely your alarm. Tire damage. Don't forget the spare part. Be careful with too much pressure. The sensor is defective or activated. You may need to reset the tire pressure gauge.
:brown_circle: When should I come in for a free tire pressure check?
They recommend that you come for free and see if the tire pressure monitoring system light comes on when you start the car, if the tires are unusually soft, or if you notice a drop in fuel economy. You leave the Goodyear Auto Service website and are redirected to a website operated by a company other than Goodyear.
What time does sam's club gas station close
:eight_spoked_asterisk: How to check tire pressure
Most experts recommend checking your tire pressure at least once a month. This is because due to the natural process of air molecules coming out through the tiny pores in the tire wall, tires tend to lose about 1 pound per square inch (average) per month on average.
:brown_circle: What's the correct way to check tire pressure?
 - Find the recommended pressure for your tires. You are looking for a two digit number followed by PSI (pounds per square inch).
 - Check the tire pressure regularly. When is the best time to check tire pressure?
 - Use a reliable gauge to check your tire pressure.
 - Check the tire pressure!
 - Inflate the tires if necessary.
:diamond_shape_with_a_dot_inside: Why should tire pressure be checked?
Tire pressure should be checked regularly to make sure it hasn't changed due to weather conditions, changes in ambient temperature or minor punctures. The recommended tire pressure in your vehicle owner's manual or tire information label is the tire pressure recommended by the vehicle when the tires are cold.
:diamond_shape_with_a_dot_inside: How to check your car's tyre pressure?
How to check tire pressure? See recommended PSI. Check the manufacturer's recommended PSI before starting to make sure the tires are not overinflated (or overinflated). Remove the valve cap and insert a pressure gauge. Remove the valve cap from the tire. Let it air out if necessary. If the tires are overinflated, they can leak air. Fill with air if necessary.

How do I Fill my tires for free at a service station?
There is a sign "Fresh Air Check" next to the gas station. This is not a self-service high-rise station. Get into the lane and drive. A mechanic will check the air pressure and inflate the tires to the correct level. Sometimes there can be a queue. So if you're flexible about when to go, avoid the weekend.

ABSOLUTE RADIOMETRIC CALIBRATION OF THE GÖKTÜRK-2 SATELLITE SENSOR USING TUZ GÖLÜ (LANDNET SITE) FROM NDVI PERSPECTIVE
Keywords: Absolute radiometric calibration; Göktürk-2, Tuz Gölü, NDVI
Abstract. TÜBİTAK UZAY has conducted a research study on the use of space-based satellite resources for several aspects of agriculture. Especially, there are two precision agriculture related projects: HASSAS (Widespread application of sustainable precision agriculture practices in Southeastern Anatolia Project Region (GAP) Project) and AKTAR (Smart Agriculture Feasibility Project). The HASSAS project aims to study development of precision agriculture practice in GAP region. Multi-spectral satellite imagery and aerial hyperspectral data along with ground measurements was collected to analyze data in an information system. AKTAR aims to develop models for irrigation, fertilization and spectral signatures of crops in Inner Anatolia. By the end of the project precision agriculture practices to control irrigation, fertilization, pesticide and estimation of crop yield will be developed. Analyzing the phenology of crops using NDVI is critical for the projects. For this reason, absolute radiometric calibration of the Red and NIR bands in space-based satellite sensors is an important issue. The Göktürk-2 satellite is an earth observation satellite which was designed and built in Turkey and was launched in 2012. The Göktürk-2 satellite sensor has a resolution 2.5 meters in panchromatic and 5 meters in R/G/B/NIR bands. The absolute radiometric calibration of the Göktürk-2 satellite sensor was performed via the ground-based measurements - spectra-radiometer, sun photometer, and meteorological station- in Tuz Gölü cal/val site in 2015. In this paper, the first ground-based absolute radiometric calibration results of the Göktürk-2 satellite sensor using Tuz Gölü is demonstrated. The absolute radiometric calibration results of this paper are compared with the published cross-calibration results of the Göktürk-2 satellite sensor utilizing Landsat 8 imagery. According to the experimental comparison results, the Göktürk-2 satellite sensor coefficients for red and NIR bands estimated in this work sustained to agree within 2% of calibration coefficients estimated in the cross-calibration results.

A forthcoming article in the journal Studies in History and Philosophy of Biological and Biomedical Sciences, now available online through advance access, tackles the influence of physics on Galtonian science. The piece, authored by Gregory Radick (left), investigates physics's influence on three Galtonians: Francis Galton himself, as well as W. F. R. Weldon and William Bateson. Title, author, and abstract follow below.
"Physics in the Galtonian sciences of heredity," by Gregory Radick

Physics matters less than we once thought to the making of Mendel. But it matters more than we tend to recognize to the making of Mendelism. This paper charts the variety of ways in which diverse kinds of physics impinged upon the Galtonian tradition which formed Mendelism's matrix. The work of three Galtonians in particular is considered: Francis Galton himself, W. F. R. Weldon and William Bateson. One aim is to suggest that tracking influence from physics can bring into focus important but now little-remembered flexibilities in the Galtonian tradition. Another is to show by example why generalizations about what happens when 'physics' meets 'biology' require caution. Even for a single research tradition in Britain in the decades around 1900, these categories were large, containing multitudes.


example, we can connect to a PhidgetInterfaceKit with:
 tell ifkit to open
The different types of open can be used with parameters to try and get the first device it can find, open based on its serial number, or even open across the network. For more information on connecting across a network, please see the "Working with Phidget WebService" guide on the programming section at _URL_. The PhidgetsOSA dictionary lists all of the available modes that open provides. Examples of the usage of different types of open are listed below:
We can tell the ifkit to block for 5000ms until a connection has been made to the PhidgetInterfaceKit with:
 tell ifkit to open wait 1000 --wait for 5000ms
We can also connect to a PhidgetInterfaceKit over the WebService with a serial number of 99999 on a server with an IP Address of 192.168.3.180 and a port that is opened on 5001 with:
 tell ifkit to open serial number 99999 server address "192.168.3.180" server port 5001
It is also possible to connect using the server id. For example, we can connect to a PhidgetInterfaceKit on a password protected server with:
 tell ifkit to open server id "TestMac" password "pw"
At the end of your script, don't forget to call close to free any locks on the Phidget.
 tell ifkit to close
 delete ifkit
Phidgets can also be freed from the PhidgetsOSA Menu Bar.
Event Driven Programming
We recommend the use of event driven programming when working with Phidgets. We can hook an event handler at loading with the following code:
 tell ifkit to make new interfacekit sensor change handler with properties {script file:thisScript}
And after the tell block at end of the script, the callback method is defined as follows:
 using terms from application "PhidgetsOSA"
 on interfacekit sensor changed ind to val on ifkit
 log "Sensor Index: " & ind & ", Sensor Value: " & val
 end interfacekit sensor changed
 end using terms from
With this function, the code inside the interfacekit sensor changed handler will get executed every time the PhidgetInterfaceKit reports a change on one of its analog inputs. Some events such as Attach and Detach belong to the base Phidget object and thus are common to all types of Phidgets. Please refer to the PhidgetsOSA dictionary and the AppleScript examples for a list of events and their usage.
Please keep in mind that events are triggered from the PhidgetsOSA application and not from AppleScript. Thus, the AppleScript editor won't be able to receive replies when the script runs. In addition, any changes you make to the event code must be saved in order for the changes to take effect.
Working directly with the Phidget
Some values can be read and sent directly to the Phidget. For example, sensor values from the PhidgetInterfaceKit can be read with:
 log "The first sensor has a value of: " & first interfacekit sensor's value
These functions can be used inside a polling loop as an alternative to event driven programming.
Using the same Phidget in more than one Application
One important thing to remember is that when working with Phidgets, a call to open will reserve the device until closed. This prevents any other instances from retrieving data from the Phidget, including other programs. If your goal is to use the same Phidget among multiple AppleScripts and/or other applications, there are two approaches.
1. Implement logic in the script that will use the same Phidget object if the script detects that a Phidget of the same type has already been initialized.
For example,
 if first phidget interfacekit exists then
 set ifkit to the first phidget interfacekit
 else
 set ifkit to make the phidget interfacekit
 open ifkit
 end if
2. The one connection per device limit does not apply when exclusively using the open Phidget Webservice. For more information, please see the "Connecting to the Phidgets" section of this document.
Working with multiple Phidgets
Multiple Phidgets of the same type can easily be run inside the same program. In our case, it requires another InterfaceKit instance to be defined and initialized. The new instance can then be set up, opened and used in the same process as the previous one. If the application needs to distinguish between the devices, open can be called with the serial number of a specific Phidget.
Other Phidgets
The design given in this document can also be followed for almost all Phidgets. For example, if you were using a PhidgetRFID instead of an PhidgetInterfacekit, you would declare an RFID object instead of an InterfaceKit. The methods and events available would change but they can be accessed in a similar manner.
PhidgetsOSA Menu Bar
Applescript bar.jpg
The PhidgetsOSA menu bar appears whenever AppleScript accesses the PhidgetsOSA application. The menu bar is used to monitor the status of any accessed Phidgets.
Additionally, it can be used to free the lock on a Phidget or quit the PhidgetsOSA application.

If you are like most students in the country, you are likely training at a smaller, pilot controlled (non-towered) airport. There are many benefits to training at these smaller airports such as reduced large aircraft traffic. But this benefit can also be a drawback when you consider the lack of wake turbulence avoidance practice.
When pilots think about wake turbulence avoidance procedures, they tend to focus on very large jet aircraft like a fully loaded 747 or large Airbus; however, when you are flying a Cessna 172 or Cherokee, "large" aircraft come in many sizes smaller than a 747. Those larger aircraft still represent an issue to smaller training aircraft like the ones you are flying. As a result, it is important to practice wake turbulence procedures anytime you are landing or taking off after a larger aircraft than what you're flying.
Wake Turbulence Avoidance Procedures:
- Avoid flying through another aircraft's flightpath
- Rotate prior to the point at which the preceding aircraft rotated when taking off behind another aircraft
- Avoid following another aircraft on a similar flight path at an altitude within 1,000 ft.
- Approach the runway above a preceding aircraft's path when landing behind another aircraft and touch down aft the point at which the other aircraft wheels contacted the runway
- Avoid flying closer than three diameters of a helicopter's rotors when the helicopter is hovering
- Helicopter vortices should be avoided due to possible strong wake turbulence
If you are not following a larger aircraft, you can still practice these procedures to stay proficient when landing or taking off after another Cessna 172. By staying proficient with wake turbulence avoidance, the next time you fly to a Class D or Class C airport and follow a Gulfstream or Airbus on takeoff/landing, you can feel confident that you will be taking the right steps to stay safe.

The fundamental insight of Aquinas with regard to usury is that it involves double charging or charging for what does not exist. Whatever defense of charging interest for a money loan one might give, this is the fundamental insight. This manifestly unjust whatever one believes about money. Even if you wish to claim that in some relevant sense money is capital, it is fundamental to the nature of the money that it is consumed in its use, whether it is used to easily purchase capital or not. To charge interest on the money loan itself is unjust in virtue of the fact that the money cannot be separated from its use. It is a double charging to charge interest on such a loan. Moreover, it is charging for what does not exist to charge for the potential (i.e. not actual) capital that might or might not be exchanged for the money. This then is the fundamental problem for the usurer and it is not waived away by suggesting that circumstance have changed.

How to manage your employee stock options
So, given the contractual terms that apply to ESOs and some additional restrictions that officers and directors have from SEC rules, managing the positions efficiently is not a simple matter. That said, the vast majority of the millions who have ESOs have no idea of the value of their holdings, the risks of losing that value or how to manage their options. They generally are advised by wealth managers and advisers who believe the only way to manage those positions is to make premature exercises after vesting, sell the stock and invest the residual proceeds into a mutual fund or some other structured investment.
But along with this strategy comes two major penalties to the exercising grantee: 1) A forfeiture of the remaining time value, or time premium, in the options, and 2) the penalty of an early tax payment. The consequences of these penalties can be significant (see "Costs of exercising," below).
Both graphs assume an "expected time to expiration" rather than maximum contractual expiration. Both illustrate the time premium, or time value, that is forfeited on premature exercise, the approximate tax that becomes due, and the residual proceeds available for re-investment. The essential difference in the two graphs is the assumed volatility that is necessary to calculate the time value of the options. The second graph assumes 0.60 vs. 0.30 in the first. This causes substantially different time premiums.
Both graphs show the same tax payable upon exercise. There is a cost associated with paying the early tax that can be calculated using an expected return on invested funds of perhaps 5% annually.
As can be seen, there is a large amount of lost ESO value and tax liability when premature exercises occur. If a stock has a 0.30 volatility and is 100% above the exercise price of the ESOs having 4.5 expected years to expiration, the forfeited time premium equals about 39% of the take-home amount. With the higher volatility of 0.60, the forfeited time premium equals 53% of the take-home amount. Those percentages substantially are larger when the stock is less than 100% above the exercise price when exercise occurs.
