Jewish music today is in the process of a metamorphosis. It is becoming a modern day interpretation of tradition. Stacy Beyer believes that this new movement can and should be enhanced by the presence of more, new Jewish music. This songwriter's workshop is designed to open the doors not only to those who might someday contribute to the new Jewish music scene, but to also give light to the value of personal prayer and expression of Jewish ideas by anyone who chooses to express them.
Stacy's Jewish Songwriters Workshops give participants a chance to explore the creation of lyrics and music. Working with Jewish themes and how they relate to our lives today, Stacy guides students through a 'no pressure' process of understanding basic songwriting and how to apply this understanding to the art of creating works that are representative of students' thoughts, feelings and perspectives. It is truly an amazing process. It is an opportunity to explore the journey we take each day...viewing the world around us...and defining our place in the world. It is a constructive and positive way to bring out, what is within. An it is an outlet for our daily struggles and a pathway to understanding.
As the workshop begins, Stacy will play recordings of familiar Jewish prayers set to new music by artists that are currently doing concerts tours around the US. As the workshop progresses, the focus will center on lyrics and overall musical intention. Stacy will discuss creating melodies for lyrics. Then, once a title is created, each student will be given time to write.
You do not need to play a musical instrument to take this workshop. Typically, there are only a couple of students who do play guitar or piano. Most do not. When it's time to share what has been created, Stacy has been known to write music 'on the spot' for as many as 30 creations. It's always amazing to watch the faces of those who are hearing their lyrics set to music immediately.
This is a unique opportunity to learn the craft of songwriting from a contemporary Jewish recording and touring artist who's credentials include five years as staff writer for EMI Publishing in Nashville TN...credits as a composer for film and TV...and three CDs of original Jewish music, produced and written by Stacy.

A vast number of people throughout London and the UK struggle to purchase a home and renting property has quickly become the norm. However, despite its prevalence, renting certainly does not come without its issues. One problem which is becoming increasingly prevalent is the issue of landlords disappearing.
Do you have a landlord who is always out-of-town or otherwise unavailable? This typically occurs in residential flat schemes whereby landlords sell their flats on long leases and have passed away or forgotten about owning the freehold, or the landlord is a company which has dissolved.
Fundamentally, from the tenant's perspective, this can be extremely daunting and it is safe to assume that two questions will inevitably arise. Firstly, what are the major problems when a landlord is not contactable? And secondly, what are the available solutions?
The disappearing act
If a landlord disappears, they are not be able to perform any of their obligations under the lease, such as building insurance, repairs, resolving disputes between other leaseholders in the property and anti-social behaviours by the occupiers. As a result, with a missing landlord, the tenant is likely to face both financial and social difficulties. Wrexham Council recently rejected plans for the development of houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) because of these underlying problems associated with absentee landlords and the corresponding burden on the tenant to pick up the pieces, when it is ultimately not their responsibility.
Under leases spanning more than 80 years, and where the landlord has not been present to enforce their lease obligations, there is a high chance that the tenant may breach these promises. This could include changing the use of the property or making internal alterations without the landlord's consent. Consequently, if the tenant was looking to sell the lease, the buyer's solicitor would enquire whether any changes had occurred within the property. Changes require the landlord's consent and if changes had been made without it, even despite the landlord being absent, this could lead to the sale of the property not occurring.
In England and Wales, in cases where the landlord is missing, it can be very challenging to obtain a mortgage, as lenders will want to know who and where the landlord is, as the terms of the lease are difficult to enforce without the landlord.
How do these tenants find solace?
It would be prudent to try to make contact with the landlord or its directors (for a company). One way to do this would be to search the electoral roll, a register recording everyone who is registered to vote in the local area. Search agents can also sometimes be engaged. However, if the landlord is a company which has dissolved, these solutions are unlikely to help.
The Absent Landlord Indemnity Policy is another option. This form of insurance protects tenants when the landlord reappears and attempts to make a claim against the tenant for failing to make ground rent payments, or for any alterations undertaken.
A slightly more complex solution is to purchase the freehold. There are several steps that need to be followed in order to allow the freehold title to be transferred to the tenant. However, a flaw of this approach is that the tenant applying for the freehold will need the support of all the other tenants in the building. This could be challenging for two reasons. Firstly, the other tenants would have to pay the premium, which is non-returnable if the landlord were to reappear. Secondly, some tenants may not want the burden of taking accountability of the building. Nonetheless, if there is an agreement between the tenants, the above steps can be taken and the freehold would then be transferred to the tenants.
Positive change is on the horizon
In the last three years, there has been a surge in disappearing landlords and this has caused a significant number of problems for tenants and local communities. However, Local Authorities are beginning to tackle these problems through large scale regeneration schemes, such as one in Blackpool estimated at £300 million, and by enforcing fines on landlords for their failure to comply with their obligations. One example of this can be seen an instance involving a missing landlord being fined £150,000 by Dudley Council in 2019 for not carrying out the necessary safety works to an HMO.
It is not all doom and gloom for tenants and despite Alan Cavill, the Director of Tourism in Blackpool acknowledging that there are issues with absentee landlords, he also explains that "we are working very hard to try and improve things."

ZeroTier: The Internet as a Global Switch
- Advertisement -
ZeroTier describes itself as a global Ethernet switch to connect any number of devices. The subscribers connect to this imaginary switch and then communicate as if they were in the same local network. Let's look into how this actually works.
zeroTier's Ethernet switch is figurative and symbolic; subscribers actually connect via a virtual private network (VPN) to a predefined VPN server operated by ZeroTier. The VPN server connects clients' devices so that they can talk directly to each other. The result is an encrypted peer-to-peer network.
The transport network is responsible for securing participants' communication and authentication. This network also achieves another important task by finding the best path between clients. Above this network layer, ZeroTier emulates the well-proven Ethernet to provide applications with a known protocol. For the participants, the VPN appears as an Ethernet switch. The technology behind this design is similar to IPsec and VXLAN.
- Advertisement -
The data packets between ZeroTier clients are encrypted and only understood by other clients, but not by the ZeroTier servers. The used algorithm originates from the toolbox of elliptic curves and offers a key length of 256 bits. The client software automatically handles the key exchange and certificate management.
In Figure 1, the clients use the ZeroTier cloud as a fully meshed backbone network that independently finds the shortest connections between all sites.
 Various clients connect through the ZeroTier
Figure 1: Various clients connect through the ZeroTier switch
Access
The computer uses the client software 'ZeroTier One' to access the ZeroTier network, which is offered as source code and as a precompiled binary for many operating systems and smartphones. On a laptop, the ZeroTier switch is another network adapter with IP address, routes, and firewall rules. It can be used to connect remote sites, dial in clients, or create out-of-band management access.
To begin, the Web service 'ZeroTier Central' expects a registered user. The registration process creates a new Ethernet switch. In return, ZeroTier provides a network identifier that the clients use to access the network. This network identifier distinguishes the clients from each other and prevents client A from reaching the devices in client B's network. Keep in mind that ZeroTier is a free commercial service provider for up to 50 devices.You can use ZeroTier's Web portal to register a new account. Afterwards, create a network for your devices by clicking on the button 'Create A Network' in the Web UI of 'ZeroTier Central'. The network immediately appears in the right-hand area with a randomly generated ID and an exemplary name. In this example, the new network has chosen the ID 1d7193940486c4c6, which is required later for the ZeroTier One client setup. Click on the network ID to configure the properties. The preset values are suitable for the initial setup.
Installation
On the client-side, the device needs the software 'ZeroTier One', which is available for all major operating systems. The installer script for Linux recognises the distribution and uses the appropriate package from the repository:
curl -s _URL_ | bash
Use the command line to set up a connection between your computer and ZeroTier. The command requires the network ID from the previous section and then connects to the ZeroTier server.
zerotier-cli join 1d7193940486c4c6
The Web view of ZeroTier and Figure 2 show the newly connected client. Since the default settings define the network as 'private', the client can only use the ZeroTier network once the admin has confirmed this in the 'Auth' column. It is also helpful to label the new device to easily distinguish it from future clients.
 The new subscriber appears as a non-authorised client
Figure 2: The new subscriber appears as a non-authorised client
Note: The ZeroTier client assigns the interface a cryptic name that begins with the letters 'zt'. This name may differ from your own experiments in the following command outputs.
As soon as all devices are connected, the list in ZeroTier extends and becomes similar to Figure 3. For validation purposes, the clients can ping each other using their ZeroTier IPv4 address from the assigned range (here: 192.168.193.0/24). The setup under Windows, macOS, and on smartphones is similar, except for a graphical interface.
 Multiple clients have registered with ZeroTier Central
Figure 3: Multiple clients have registered with ZeroTier Central
ZeroTier as a switch
ZeroTier compares itself to a global Ethernet switch, allowing clients to use the ZeroTier connection as a network bridge. The result truly feels like an Ethernet connection to the subscribers.
By default, clients do not operate as a network bridge. To enable bridge mode, go to the ZeroTier Web UI and enable 'Allow Ethernet Bridging' for each device individually (Figure 4).
ZeroTier allows 'Ethernet bridging' per device
Figure 4: ZeroTier allows 'Ethernet bridging' per device
On the client-side, Linux requires a network bridge that joins the interfaces eth0 and zt7nnn53ro. The result is a genuine Ethernet connection; the connected devices share a broadcast domain and can use the same IP network. There is also no need to manage and distribute routes.
Firewall
Linux and Windows come with a robust packet filter that can block unwanted IP connections. The use of this local firewall is made possible because ZeroTier is treated as a regular interface and can belong to a firewall zone.
ZeroTier Central comes with 'Flow Rules', which is an effective way to control the data streams from a central point. The configuration is less convenient; the firewall rules are created as text, similar to iptables rules. The resulting security policy applies to all ZeroTier clients connected to this network ID. As soon as the rule set is ready, the clients fetch the new policy and apply it locally.
The use of the firewall is recommended if incoming traffic originates from an untrusted location or if the ZeroTier switch is classified as insecure. In this case, the ZeroTier interface will receive a firewall policy that uses restrictive rules to block anything that is not explicitly allowed. The firewall policy can filter at both the IP layer and the Ethernet layer.
Self-hosting ZeroTier
The makers of ZeroTier maintain several root servers for all subscribers so that the client software can get in touch with the network and reach other nodes. It is possible to run one (better: two) root server and a network controller to independently build a ZeroTier cloud without outside dependencies. The required software is already installed because the 'ZeroTier One' client also functions as a network controller or root server.
Network controller
The first step to independence is to have your own network controller. ZeroTier uses the network controller as a configuration manager and certification authority. The configuration of the controller uses ZeroTier's API, which is well documented but inconvenient for daily use. Those who do not like to set up their new infrastructure with curl, wget, or httpie can use the Web interface from the third-party provider 'Key Networks'. The installation of the ZeroTier software and the Web UI is described in Listing 1 for a server running Debian Linux.
Listing 1: This script turns a Debian Linux host into a ZeroTier controller
wget _URL_
dpkg --install zerotier-one_1.8.1_amd64.deb
systemctl restart zerotier-one
wget _URL_
dpkg --install ./ztncui_0.7.1_amd64.deb
echo 'HTTPS_PORT=8443' > /opt/key-networks/ztncui/.env
systemctl restart ztncui
After the installation is complete, the Web interface is available at the URL https://ipaddress:8443/. The first login uses the credential admin/password. Subsequently, the Web UI forces a password change to boost security.
The configuration is very similar to the procedure from the previous section, although the Web UI of 'Key Networks' offers a smaller functionality than ZeroTier Central. The setup starts with the button 'Add network', which immediately creates a new network and presents the network ID. A client can directly join this network without knowing the network controller. The required command is no different from a regular 'join':
zerotier-cli join a0a9c4de8a520e4d
In the network controller's Web interface, the new members need authorisation and an IP address. In Figure 5, the participants have registered with the controller and received their IP addresses. In the background, the ZeroTier clients communicate with the ZeroTier root servers to find the new controller. The next step to independence is to have your own root server.
The clients have registered with the self-hosted network controller
Figure 5: The clients have registered with the self-hosted network controller
Root server
ZeroTier implements the functionality of the root server again in its 'ZeroTier One' application. The documentation refers to a self-hosted root server as a 'moon'. The provider recommends using two moons that have a stable network connection and static IP addresses. The hardware requirement is minimal, so any virtual machine at a cloud provider can become a root server. Furthermore, the provider recommends that the root server does not simultaneously work as a network controller.

Why Does WinZip Still Exist in 2022?
WinZip, WinRAR, and other archiving software are designed to compress files and save space. This software was first introduced when floppy drives had a maximum size of 1.44 MB, thus requiring the need for compression.
However, storage technology has advanced. We have SSDs with 8TB capacity, and it's normal to have up to 1TB of cloud storage. We can also download gigabytes of data in mere minutes.
But why do we still use archiving and compression software? Let's investigate the reasons why.
1. File Size Reduction
Even though large storage capacities are typical nowadays, and most of us have a fast internet connection, files are still typically compressed when you're downloading them. This is especially true if you download multiple files simultaneously.
Many cloud storage and email services do this because it still saves space. Although you may think that the space savings of a zipped file are minimal, it is still crucial for users who aren't connected to a stable broadband network. For example, if you're downloading a file using your cellular data connection, you'll want to conserve data, so zipping (compressing) a file will help.
File compression is also useful for archiving. If you want to keep a file but have no intention of using it, you can use WinZip compression to reduce its file size. This move will allow you to fit more files into your archive system. Although the reduced space might be small for an individual file, the space savings add up if you have several files or folders to archive.
2. Grouping Files or Folders Into One File
If you have a Google Drive and decide to download multiple files, you'll notice that your browser will download it as a compressed Zip file. Aside from reducing the file size, which saves on server bandwidth, it's also easier to transfer multiple files or folders as one volume.
Doing so ensures that no file or folder is sent as an incomplete download. For example, suppose you're downloading an application for installation from the internet. If the app isn't compressed into a single zip file, you'll likely have to download multiple files—hundreds of them if the app is complicated.
In case one crucial file gets an interrupted download while the rest completes, you might have no idea it happened. So, during the installation process, you'll encounter an error, but you'll frustratingly have no idea why.
But by ensuring that all files an app will need are stored in a single archive, you're assured that once the download completes, all files retain their integrity, and your installation won't fail. Furthermore, it simplifies the download as the user only needs to download one file.
3. Easy File Encryption
One other advantage you get from file archiving is easy encryption. If you want to send a confidential file, you can easily add a password to an archive. That means when anyone, including you, wants to open it, they'll have to provide the password you set first.
While you can password-protect files like PDFs, Word documents, and Excel spreadsheets, the protection isn't strong enough. Furthermore, not all files can easily be encrypted. For example, you can't easily add a password to images, text files, folders, and other file types that don't support encryption.
Archiving software like WinRAR and WinZip can add a password to just about any file, ensuring no one except those with the correct password (or those who know how to hack them) can break into your archive easily.
4. Convert Optical Discs Into a Single File
Optical media, like CDs and DVDs, are now out of fashion. In fact, most computers nowadays no longer come with drives—even laptops! However, if you still have software, digital video, or music albums on a disc, you might want to back them up on your computer.
That's because the plastic could become brittle as time passes, making them fragile. If your discs are already pretty old and you insert them into a high-speed optical drive, they risk breaking inside. Furthermore, if they're not stored properly, they could warp and bend, making them unreadable.
If you don't want to lose the data on those discs, you can copy them into your computer's storage. However, if you keep them in folders, you might accidentally delete a file inside, thus breaking the disc's copy on your PC.
But if you instead use archiving software and copy the disc as a whole, you don't have to worry about losing any file of the CD. That's because your computer would store it as a whole, ensuring you don't accidentally delete a file or folder that'll render your backup copy unusable. And yes, if you're wondering, an ISO file is a type of archive!
5. Divide One Large File Into Smaller Pieces
Back when the largest portable storage media were CDs, which only had 600MB capacities, you were limited to that size per file. If you had 2GB, you had no choice but to pull out the hard drive where it's saved and bring it with you to transfer the file to another computer.
Even if you used file compression, you'd probably be left with a 1.5GB file, which still won't fit a single CD drive. Luckily, some archiving software can divide a single archive into multiple files. That way, you can transport them to commonly available media.
For example, if you use WinRAR, you can split a single large compressed file into multiple volumes. So, you can divide a 1.5GB-file into 500MB chunks. With that, you can transfer massive files into multiple drives. You no longer need to pull out your hard drive just to give a copy of your 2GB video to a friend.
WinZip: Old But Still Useful
Archiving was first included in one of the first operating systems ever developed in 1969. Thus, file compression has already been around for over 50 years. Even Windows has a built-in archive tool, although it only started supporting the popular Zip format in Windows 98, with the Windows Plus! add-on.
Nevertheless, despite being old technology, many companies still use it daily. Despite the proliferation of massive storage, ultra-fast internet, and convenient cloud storage, file compression apps still have their place in today's modern world.

Office of Child Welfare and Children's Mental Health
Improving Health Access in Frontier and Rural Counties
Principal Investigator: Megan S. O'Brien, PhD, MPH
Project Manager: Cheryl Holmes, MPA
Project Dates: Dec 2008 - ongoing
Defining Frontier and Rural
The way frontier and rural are defined is critical whether the work is
related to research, evaluation, program development, policy work, training,
outreach, or funding. Many definitions exist but only one is recommended by the
Kansas Rural and Frontier Subcommittee of the Kansas Governor's Mental Health
Services Planning Council. It is the Population Density Peer Group Continuum
that the Kansas Department of Health and Environment created by modifying the
Clifton Classification System. It provides definitions for five categories:
- Frontier is less than 6 people per square mile
- Rural is defined as 6-19.9 people per square mile
- Densely-settled rural is defined as 20-39.9 people per square mile
- Semi-urban is defined as 40-149.9 people per square mile
- Urban is defined as 150+ people per square mile
While other factors such as distance in miles and time in minutes to service areas are important considerations, this continuum provides a method for all counties to be categorized. In so doing, it provides a methodical way to take into consideration important factors that vary among the peer groups such as resource availability within the county, distance to resources outside of the county, availability of numbers and types of staff, cultural variations, and infrastructure, among others.
See the following links for Kansas and U.S. maps showing the breakout of counties across the continuum.

Frontier and Rural Specific Projects
With funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and United Methodist Health Ministry Fund Area Mental Health Center is currently conducting a frontier access project, with evaluation and research support provide by KU School of Social Welfare. See _URL_
From 2008-2009, KU worked with community partners on the Improving Access to Children's Mental Health Through Inclusion of Frontier and Rural Voice: Integration of Mental Health and Primary Care project. With funding provided by United Methodist Health Ministry Fund, the project was designed to develop a culturally and geographically sensitive plan to increase access to children's mental health services in frontier and rural Kansas counties. The project culminated with a children's mental health summit held in Garden City, Kansas, in the fall of 2009.
In addition to KU, key partners on this project included Area Mental Health Center, Garden City; Center for Counseling and Consultation, Great Bend; St. Francis Community Services, Salina; Larned State Hospital, Larned; Tribune School System, Tribune; USD 395, La Crosse; Ellsworth County Medical Center, Ellsworth; and Morton County Hospital, Elkhart. Melissa Ness with Connections Unlimited provided the facilitation for this project.

For similar terms, please see Czar (disambiguation).
A tsar or (tzar or czar - царь) is an emperor or monarch of certain Slavic countries. In Russia, the original title was first adopted by Ivan IV in 1547 and was in use until the People's Revolution if 1918, when the people of Russia executed Nicholas II and his entire family. Russia adopted a system of pseudo communism as advocated by Lenin and Stalin. Currently, modern Russian and other Slavic languages use Tzar interchangeably with "king" or "monarch".
The word traces its roots back to the word "Ceasar" from the Roman Empire, the same roots that are used in the German word Kaiser, their term for emperor.
The term is also now used in America and the United Kingdom[1] to refer to bureaucrats in charge of carrying out some aspect of United States Government policy, such as the Drug Czar.

Question:
Find the local minima of the function: $$ f(x) = x^{3} - 3x$$.
Inactive
Sunil D.
Answer:
When asked to find minimas or maximas of a function, the first step you should perform is to find the derivative of the function, set it equal to 0, and solve for x, like so: $$ f'(x) = 3x^{2}-3 = 0 $$ $$ 3(x+1)(x-1) = 0 $$ $$ x = 1 $$ or $$ x = -1 $$ We now have two potential candidates as local extrema (local maxima or local minima), but how do we determine which of these are maxima/minima? We do this by plugging in our two candidates into the second derivative of the function like so: $$ f''(x) = 6x $$ $$ f''(1) = 6 $$ $$ f''(-1) = -6 $$ Rules: If the second derivative is positive when evaluated at the value , it is a local minima If the second derivative is negative when evaluated at the value , it is a local maxima Note: A way to remember this is that it's the opposite of what you would think. You would think a maxima would be at the largest value (a positive value) of the 2nd derivative, but it's the opposite. A maxima is at a negative value of the 2nd derivative. Using the above two rules it is easy to see that $$x=1$$ is a minima and $$x=-1$$ is a maxima and so the answer to the question is that $$x=1$$ is the local minima of the function.

Question:
An unfair coin is tossed 10 times with the probability of head being 0.6. What is the probability of getting exactly 3 heads?
Inactive
Sunil D.
Answer:
The number of successful outcomes (success being heads in this case) can be modeled with a binomial distribution. $$ P(X = k) = {n \choose k} p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}$$ Where n is the number of trials (10 in our case) and k is the number of successes (3 heads) and p is the probability of success (p=0.6). Using our formula to evaluate we have: $$ P(X = 3) = {10 \choose 3} (0.6)^{3}(1-0.6)^{10-3} = 120*(0.6)^{3}(0.4)^{7} = 0.04246733 $$ A way to think about this solution is that suppose we got 3 heads on the first 3 tosses of the coin and then 7 tails. The probability of this happening is $$ (0.6)^{3}(0.4)^{7} = 0._PHONE_$$. But notice that this is only one way of achieving 3 heads and 7 tails. We could have gotten 7 tails on the first 7 tries and then 3 heads which would have also satisfied our requirements of having 3 heads and 7 tails out of the 10 tosses. As a matter of fact there are $$ {10\choose3} = 120 $$ ways of attaining our desired outcome and that is why we multiply the probability of a getting a single successful outcome $$ (0.6)^{3}(0.4)^{7} $$ by 120.

How Long Do Mushrooms Last?
Do mushrooms last longer than other foods?
Mushrooms are fungi that grow underground.
They are often found growing on decaying wood or manure.
They are also known as buttons because of their shape.
I'm going to tell you how long mushrooms last and if there's anything you need to know before eating them.
Mushroom Expiration Date
Mushrooms last longer if stored properly. Store mushrooms in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep them in tightly sealed containers and store them in the refrigerator. Mushrooms are perishable and should not be left at room temperature for long periods of time.
How Long Do Mushrooms Last?
Mushrooms last longer when stored properly. Store mushrooms away from direct sunlight. Store them in tightly sealed containers. Keep them in the refrigerator.
How Long Do Cooked Mushrooms Last?
Cooked mushrooms last longer if you store them properly. Store them away from direct sunlight. Keep them in the fridge.
How Long Do Uncooked Mushrooms Last?
Uncooked mushrooms last about 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
How To Store Mushrooms?
Mushrooms can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Keep them wrapped in plastic wrap or place them in a paper bag.
Storing Mushrooms Outside The Fridge
You can store mushrooms outside the fridge for up to three days. Just put them in a paper bag or other airtight container. How to Clean Mushrooms
Storing Mushrooms In The Fridge
Mushrooms are delicious and nutritious. They are easy to clean and store. Here are some tips on how to clean mushrooms. Wash the mushrooms under running water. Remove any dirt from the surface using a damp cloth. Dry the mushrooms thoroughly. Store the cleaned mushrooms in a plastic bag or container.
If you buy packaged mushrooms, wash them well before storing. Do not leave them sitting around in the open air. Keep them away from other items such as fruits and vegetables.
Unpacked mushrooms are usually available in the grocery store. These mushrooms are usually stored in plastic bags or boxes. It is important to remove any dirt or debris from the mushroom before using it. Wash the mushrooms thoroughly under running tap water. Remove the stem and cut off the cap. Cut the caps into pieces if needed. Store the mushrooms in a cool dry place.
Can You Freeze Mushrooms?
Yes, you can freeze mushrooms. Just follow these steps: 1 Clean the mushrooms well; 2 Place the cleaned mushrooms in a freezer bag or container; 3 Close the bag or container tightly; 4 Label the package clearly with the date; 5 Put the package in the freezer; 6 Thaw the frozen mushrooms according to the instructions on the label.
How To Blanch Mushrooms For The Freezer
Blanching is a process where vegetables are immersed in boiling water for a short period of time. This process helps remove any dirt or debris from the vegetable and kills any bacteria. It also helps retain nutrients and vitamins in the vegetable. To blanch mushrooms, place them in a bowl and fill it with cold water. Bring a medium sized pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the mushrooms and let them simmer for about 30 seconds. Remove the mushrooms from the hot water using tongs and immediately plunge them into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain the mushrooms and pat dry with paper towels.
How To Sauté Mushrooms For The Freezer
Sautéing is a method of cooking food in a pan or skillet. In sautéing, the food is cooked in fat or oil until tender and lightly colored. The food is usually stirred frequently during the cooking process. To saute mushrooms, pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a heavy skillet and heat it over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and stir occasionally until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and continue stirring occasionally until the mushrooms are tender and golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
How To Freeze Raw Mushrooms
Freezing raw mushrooms is a great way to preserve them for later use. It's important to freeze them right after washing and trimming them. Once frozen, store them in freezer bags or containers. This allows you to take advantage of the convenience of having pre-cooked mushrooms whenever you're ready.
How To Tell If A Mushroom Is Bad?
Mushrooms are very nutritious and delicious. But sometimes, we eat bad mushroom because we don't know how to tell if a mushroom is good or not. Here are some tips to help you identify whether a mushroom is good or bad. 1. Fresh mushrooms are usually white in color. However, if you see any other colors such as red, yellow, orange, black, purple, green, blue, gray, brown, pink, or violet, then these are probably poisonous mushrooms. 2. Look closely at the stem of the mushroom. If the stem is dry, brittle, and hollow, then the mushroom is definitely poisonous.
How long do mushrooms last in the fridge once opened?
Mushrooms are generally safe to eat if cooked properly. However, certain varieties of wild mushrooms can be toxic if not handled correctly. For instance, the Amanita phalloides mushroom death cap is highly poisonous and can kill even healthy adults. Other types of mushrooms such as the false morel Gyromitra esculenta, the fly agaric Amanita muscaria, and the deadly amanita species Amanita phalloides can also be fatal if ingested. It is important to note that these mushrooms are not only dangerous to humans but also to pets and livestock.
When should you not eat old mushrooms?
Mushrooms are generally safe to eat if they are not moldy or rotten. However, mushrooms are susceptible to contamination from bacteria, molds, and other fungi. Mushrooms are usually sold in plastic bags or containers, but these bags can become contaminated easily. It is important to wash mushrooms thoroughly before using them. To clean mushrooms, soak them in cold water for about 10 minutes. Remove the stems and cut off the caps. Then place the caps into a bowl filled with cool water and let sit for 5 minutes. Drain the mushrooms well and pat dry with paper towels.
Can old mushrooms make you sick?
Mushrooms are delicate vegetables that can easily turn soggy if not stored properly. It is important to store them in a cool place away from direct sunlight. Mushrooms can be stored in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks. However, they should be used within 3 days after being refrigerated.
Are old mushrooms edible?
Mushrooms are fungi mushroom that grow underground. Mushrooms are usually found growing on logs, tree stumps, or other decaying wood. Most people think of mushrooms as being poisonous but not all mushrooms are toxic. In fact, many types of mushrooms are actually quite delicious. They are generally eaten cooked because they lose flavor if they are raw. Many varieties of mushrooms are used in cooking and baking. For instance, white button mushrooms are often sauteed or added to soups and sauces. Other common varieties of mushrooms are cremini, portobello, shiitake, oyster, enoki, maitake, chanterelle, and king trumpet.
How long do uncooked mushrooms last in the fridge?
Mushrooms are generally safe to eat but if you notice any signs of illness after eating them, such as diarrhea, vomiting, stomach cramps, or fever, contact your doctor immediately. Symptoms of mushroom poisoning usually occur within 24 hours of ingestion. It is important to note that not all mushrooms are poisonous. For instance, white button mushrooms are edible while portobello mushrooms are toxic.
How do you know when mushroom are bad?
Mushrooms are generally safe to eat if they are stored properly. However, if they are stored improperly, they could become contaminated with bacteria. This is especially true if they are stored in damp conditions. It is important to store mushrooms in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Mushrooms should be stored in a plastic bag or other airtight container. Storing mushrooms in a refrigerator is not recommended because it can lead to spoilage.
Are old mushrooms poisonous?
Mushrooms are very perishable. Once you open them, they begin to lose moisture and become stale within hours. Mushrooms should be stored in the refrigerator. They can be stored for about 3 days if they are tightly sealed. After opening, they should be refrigerated.

Resistors that efficiently transfer heat from the resistive element out into the surrounding medium or heat sink are known as heat sinkable resistors. Resistive power density largely depends on the mounting arrangement and its thermal aspects. Chassis mounted resistors provide low temperature coefficient of resistance and thus are ideal for the purpose of heat sinking. Read More
Chassis mount resistors are basically wire-wound resistors where a large ceramic core is molded into an aluminum, chassis-mount housing using extrusion. The wire-wound design maximizes pulse handling, while the aluminum housing provides superior heat conduction. Since heat is released in one plane, that side is attached to an external heat sink.
Chassis mount resistors commonly find application in:
KWK Resistors manufactures Chassis Mount Resistors with non-inductive windings and their compact design is suitable for effective thermal management. Resistance values range from 0.005 ohm up to 250k ohm.Read Less

From press release
Children are invited to "Exploration Monday: Moon Day" from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday, July 26, at Burpee Museum of Natural History, 737 N. Main St., Rockford. This is a drop-in program—learn some fun facts, see special items from Burpee's collection and make a "make & take" project.
July 26, 1969, at 3:55 p.m., a "rock box" containing rocks that Apollo 11 astronauts brought back from the moon was first opened. Learn more about what scientists discovered.
Museum admission is free/donation; cost of this program is $3 per child to participate. Free participation is offered for the first 30 Rockford Public School District 205 students who bring a picture they have drawn or a short piece they have written about the moon.
Celebrate the full moon of July by taking part in Moon Day at Burpee's Exploration Monday! There are lots of crafts to complete, and kids will discover many interesting facts about the moon. Participants will learn the phases of the moon. You will find your weight on the moon as well as create craters just like those on the moon. Additional crafts include making moon sand, a moon kinescope, a moon book, a moon mask, moon painting, and a moon rock. Crafts are for the smallest to the oldest.
In the wigwam, representatives of the Native American Awareness Committee of Rockford will be telling stories. You can pretend to be a little child living under the full moon and listening to stories long ago before you fell asleep.
Artist Melinda Peterson Fluait will be at Burpee also that day for "Draw with Melinda." Children will create their own silhouette on the face of a full moon.
→ Countries near the equator see the crescent moon shaped like a smile.
→ It takes the moon about 29.5 days to completely cycle through all eight phases. This is known as a lunar month.
→ The moon phases are produced by the alignment of the moon and the sun in the sky.
→ The moon is lit because it reflects the light from the sun.
→ The part facing the sun is lit, while the part facing away from the sun is dark.

The Pocket Guide to Accelerant Evidence Collection
Appendix I: Glossary of Terms for the Fire/Arson
Part A. Definitions:
- A substance used to initiate or promote the spread of fire. The most commonly
encountered arson accelerants are ignitable (flammable or combustible) liquids.
Ignitable liquids, such as gasoline and kerosene, generate heavier than
air, ignitable vapors at ordinary temperatures, are immiscible (don't mix
with water), and float and sheen (rainbow coloration) on surface water.
Other ignitable liquids, such as ethyl alcohol or isopropyl alcohol, are
miscible (mix well) and do not float or leave a sheen on water. Common structural
materials and assemblies and natural or man made substances often readily
absorb ignitable liquids.
- Hydrocarbons are grouped according to their molecular structure. The two
major families of hydrocarbons are aliphatic and aromatic. Aliphatic hydrocarbons
can be either straight chain molecules or branched chain molecules.
Hydrocarbons can be further classified as alkanes,
alkenes, alkynes, and alicyclics. Alkanes contain carbon-carbon single bonds
(saturated); examples of alkanes include methane, ethane, and propane. Alkenes
contain carbon-carbon double bonds (unsaturated); an example of an alkene
is ethylene. Alkynes are highly reactive hydrocarbons containing carbon-carbon
triple bonds; an example of an alkyne is acetylene. Alicyclic hydrocarbons
contain carbon-carbon single bonds and are arranged in a ring structure
such as cyclohexane.
Most of the common ignitable liquid hydrocarbons
used as arson accelerants are blended products and contain both aliphatic
and aromatic compounds.
- The second major family of hydrocarbon molecules have one or more six
member (benzene) rings of carbon atoms. The simplest aromatic compound is
benzene (C6H6). Aromatics have a characteristic odor.
4. Boiling Point
- The temperature of a pure liquid at which point its vapor pressure is
equal to or slightly greater than atmospheric pressure. Boiling occurs when
a temperature is reached at which the thermal energy of the particles is
great enough to overcome the cohesive forces that hold them in the liquid.
Most common ignitable liquids consist of mixtures of hydrocarbon compounds;
such mixtures are described as having a "boiling range". As an
example, gasoline is described as having a boiling range of -45 degrees
F to over 400 degrees F. This means that the lightest compound of gasoline
boils at -45 degrees F and the heaviest of the more than 300 individual
compounds in gasoline boils at more than 400 degrees F.
5. Carbon -
A non-metallic element (Periodic Table symbol - C) found nearly pure in
nature as in a diamond or graphite or as a component of coal or petroleum.
Carbon, the sixth most abundant element in the universe, has the unique
ability among the elements to be able to react with either metal or non-metal
elements. Carbon also has the ability to form bonds with other carbon atoms
to form long chain or branched molecules. About 3 million carbon compounds
are known. Substances that contain carbon are called organic compounds and
the school of chemistry that studies and uses these compounds is called
- The metric and scientific method of measuring temperature was formerly
known as Centigrade. Expressed as degrees (C), the freezing point of pure
water at sea level is 0 degres C and the boiling point of pure water at
sea level is 100 degrees C. To convert from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees
Celsius subtract 32 then divide by 5/9th i.e. 68 degrees F - 32 = 36; 36
x 5/9 = 20 degrees C.
7. Combustible liquid
- An ignitable liquid having a flash point at or above 100 degres F (37.8
-A rapid (exothermic) combustion reaction proceeding through fuel at a sub-sonic
speed (typically less than 3300 feet/second -1000 meters/second).
- An effect produced by violent, sudden expansion of gases from chemical
change such as detonation of an explosive or ignition of a flammable gas,
mechanical changes such as in a boiler explosion or atomic changes.
10. Explosive limits
- (flammable limits) The extreme lower & upper concentrations of an
air/gas mixture in which combustion or deflagration will be supported. Generally,
fuels with broad flammable/explosive limits such as acetylene (2.5% to 80%
by volume) are considered more hazardous.
- The method of measuring temperature where the freezing point of pure water
at sea level is 32 degrees F and the boiling point is 212 degrees F. To
convert degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit, multiply the Celsius degrees
by 9/5 and add 32 to that number i.e. 20 degrees C x 9/5 = 36; 36 + 32 =
68 degrees F.
12. Fire -
Rapid oxidation with the evolution of heat and light of varying intensities.
Fire is an exothermic reaction (energy is released). Flaming fire is always
a gas phase (gas - gas) reaction meaning one or more ignitable gases are
combining with a gaseous oxidizing agent in the flame zone forming new compounds.
13. Flame Point
- A specific temperature, at which an ignitable liquid would produce sufficient
vapors to support continuous, rather than momentary, combustion. The flame
point is usually is usually a few points higher than the flash point for
a given ignitable liquid.
14. Flammable Liquid
- An ignitable liquid having a flash point below 80 degrees F (26.6 degrees
C) (USCG) or 100 degrees F (37.8 degrees C) (NFPA) and a vapor pressure
not exceeding 40 psi at 100 degrees F. Flammable liquids are a class of
15. Flash point
- The lowest temperature at which a given ignitable liquid produces an ignitable
vapor in a laboratory test. The "flame or fire point", ordinarily
a few degrees higher than the flash point, is the temperature at which an
ignitable liquid would produce sufficient vapors to support a sustained
16. Gas Chromatography
- Flame Ionization Detector (GC - FID) - A laboratory test method which
vaporizes mixtures by heating and then separates the individual components
according to their boiling points and molecular weights. For each component
present in a sample, the detector produces a signal proportional to the
quantity of that component. The resulting visual graph is called a chromatogram.
Most of the common ignitable liquids used as fire
accelerants produce characteristic chromatograms, which can be readily characterized/identified
by the forensic chemist. The GC - FID is used extensively by forensic laboratories
for fire debris analysis.
17. Heat Release Rate (HRR) - The amount of heat energy released by combustion expressed
in Btu/sec or kilowatts (kW). The HRR of a combustible is related to its
chemical makeup, physical form and the quantity of oxidant present.
18. Heavy Petroleum Distillate (HPD) (C9 - C23) - A general class of combustible liquids which includes
#2 fuel oil (home heating oil) and diesel fuel. Most HPDs considered as
ignitable liquids would have flash points between 100-200 degrees F. The
chromatographic profile of a HPD consists of a series of normal alkanes
the most abundant n-alkane above C12; and at least five consecutive n-alkane peaks must be
present between C14 and C20. Branched alkanes and the compounds pristane and phytane
are present between the normal alkanes. (Refer to Chart 1).
- Organic compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen. The three simplest
hydrocarbon molecules are methane (CH4), ethane (C2H6), and propane (C3H8). Hydrocarbons have one of three molecular structures;
(aromatics) contain at least one six-member benzene ring (unsaturated) such
as benzene (C6H6), toluene and the xylenes; (alicyclics) non-aromatic cyclic
(ring) compounds, or, "open-chain" (aliphatic) structure including
such groups as the alkanes (paraffins), alkenes (olefins), and alkynes (acetylenes).
- The lightest, simplest (one proton and one electron) and most abundant
element in the universe. Hydrogen is a gas without taste, odor, or color.
It combines with carbon in organic matter such as plants, coal, and petroleum
and with oxygen in water. Periodic Table Symbol: H.
21. Ignition temperature
- The minimum temperature to which a substance must be heated in air to
ignite independently of the heating source. This temperature is sometimes
referred to as the auto-ignition temperature. This temperature is derived
from specific laboratory testing of pure substances and serves to classify
the hazard presented by the ignitable liquid. The actual ignition temperature
of most substances may be somewhat higher than those reported in laboratory
- A term that describes substances that do


mailbox permissions. The below steps will explain how to configure the permissions access for both options. Microsoft 365 does NOT allow Impersonation for Small Business plans.
Note: The remote PowerShell commands below can take several minutes to complete.
 1. Make sure you are using a global admin account to perform these steps
 2. Click the Windows Start button.
 3. Search for Windows PowerShell (PowerShell should already be installed).
 4. Start PowerShell under an administrator context (right-click -> run as administrator).
 5. Run the following PowerShell commands one at a time:
 Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted$LiveCred = Get-Credential
 Install-Module -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement
 Import-Module -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement
 Connect-ExchangeOnline -ConnectionUri _URL_ -Credential $LiveCred
 Enable-OrganizationCustomization
 The Enable command may take a long time to run and may error out. If so, wait a few minutes and run it again.
 New-ManagementRoleAssignment -Role "ApplicationImpersonation" -User _EMAIL_
 - Make sure to replace "_EMAIL_" in the PowerShell command above with the admin account being used for migration.
 - Ignore any errors such as "This operation is not available in current service offer."
 - Ignore any errors such as "The assignment of the management role 'ApplicationImpersonation' [...] won't take effect until user is migrated."
Benefits:
Using impersonation, it is possible to stop sharing the throttling quota and connection limits associated with a single administrative account. Instead, the throttling quota of each user is used to log in to each user mailbox.
Using impersonation means:
 - Eliminating most "Connection did not succeed" errors
 - Allowing migration of more mailboxes concurrently
 - Reducing the impact of throttling and connection limits
 - Using an admin account without assigning a license to it
Full Access
To manually grant administrative access for migration, execute the following remote PowerShell commands:
Note: The remote PowerShell commands below can take several minutes to complete.
 1. Make sure you are using a global admin account to perform these steps
 2. Click the Windows Start button.
 3. Search for Windows PowerShell (PowerShell should already be installed).
 4. Start PowerShell under an administrator context (right-click -> run as administrator).
 5. Run the following PowerShell commands one at a time:
 6. Run the following PowerShell commands one at a time:
 Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted$LiveCred = Get-Credential
 Install-Module -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement
 Import-Module -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement
 Connect-ExchangeOnline -ConnectionUri _URL_ -Credential $LiveCred
 Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Add-MailboxPermission -AccessRights FullAccess -Automapping $false
 - The command to grant Full Access rights needs to be applied each time a new mailbox is created since permissions are set directly on each mailbox. The administrative account will not have access until the permissions are applied.
 - In the script above, the username "MigrationWiz" should be replaced with the name of the administrative account that was set up, by following the instructions in this Knowledge Base article.
 - This username is the Administrative Username that needs to be entered under the project's Source or Destination settings, within MigrationWiz, when checking the box labeled Use Administrative Login.
 Create and License User Accounts
 Set up accounts on Microsoft 365 and assign licenses. These can be created in several ways:
Modern Authentication Requirements
The steps listed in the Obtain Client and Tenant ID Settings for Mailbox and Exchange Online Migrations section of the Authentication Methods Migrations KB apply to both the source and destination tenant when they are Exchange Online, in regards to Exchange Web Services (EWS) in mailbox, archive mailbox, and public folder projects. Use a Global Administrator for the configuration steps.
Please review the documentation before preparing the destination.
Prepare the tenant to send & receive large items
We do not impose any limit on item/attachment sizes. However, large items/attachments can fail to migrate because of external factors. There are two considerations:
 1. What is the maximum attachment size allowed by the Destination system?
 - Most email systems impose size limits. For example, if the Destination system has a 30MB limit, any item/attachment larger than 30MB will fail to migrate.
 - What is the connection timeout for the Source and Destination system?
 - For security reasons, most email systems close opened connections after a predetermined amount of time. For example, if the Destination system only has 512Kbps of network bandwidth and closes connections after 30 seconds, we may be unable to transfer large items/attachments before the connection is closed.
 MigrationWiz will automatically make multiple attempts to migrate large items. Upon completion of a migration, you may resubmit it in error retry mode to try to migrate failed items. This is always free of charge.:
 When migrating from or to Office 365 use the steps provided here to increase the Max Send and Max Recieve quotas, Change message size limits in Office 365.
 MigrationWiz Steps
 Create a Mailbox Migration project
 You will need to create one project per Lotus Notes Extractor. The server for each Source Server Name will be the Lotus Notes Identifier from the Lotus Extractor.
 1. Click the Go to My Projects button.
 2. Click the Create Project button.
 3. Click on the type of project that you wish to create. For this migration:
 - Mailbox: Mailbox projects are used to migrate the contents of the primary user mailbox from the previous environment to the new environment. Most mailbox migrations can migrate email, calendars, and contacts.
 For mailbox migrations, use administrative credentials to access mailboxes. In most migration scenarios, the admin account needs to have full access rights to the Source mailboxes.
 1. Click Next Step.
 2. Enter a Project name and select a Customer.
 3. Click Next Step.
 Endpoints
 During the migration setup, create the Source and Destination endpoints.
 Endpoints are now created through MigrationWiz, rather than through MSPComplete. The steps for this section outline how to create the endpoints in MigrationWiz.
 If you are selecting an existing endpoint, keep in mind that only ten endpoints will show in the drop-down. If you have more than ten, you may need to search. Endpoint search is case and character-specific. For example, Cust0mer will not show up if the search is customer. We recommend keeping a list of endpoints you have created, along with any unique spellings or capitalization you may have used.
 Create a Source Endpoint
 1. Click New.
 2. Enter the endpoint name.
 3. Endpoint type: Lotus Notes 6.5+.
 4. In the Server Name field, enter the Lotus Extractor Identifier.
 - Create separate Source endpoints for each Extractor that you set up. These will be used when setting up your MigrationWiz projects. You will be setting up one MigrationWiz project per Extractor.
 - The Lotus Extractor Identifier was generated when setting up your Lotus Extractor(s) and is at the top of the Lotus Extractor window.
 Create the Destination Endpoint
 1. Click Endpoints.
 2. Click Add Endpoint.
 3. Enter endpoint name.
 4. Select endpoint type Office 365.
 5. Click Provide Credentials.
 6. Enter the admin account credentials. This should be for the global admin account.
 7. Click Add.
 8. Complete the Application (client) ID and the Directory (tenant) ID fields, otherwise, you cannot save your project.Destintation Settings.png
 9. Click Next Step.
 Important
 When configuring the destination endpoint, do not forget to complete the client ID and the tenant ID fields for the Destination endpoint, otherwise, you cannot save your project migration.
 Once the information has been provided for both, the source and/or destination endpoint, and the customer selects Save and Go to Summary, MigrationWiz performs an endpoint validation check for the Microsoft 365 endpoint.
 This validation tests the administrator credentials entered into the project and the Modern Authentication setup only. If there is an issue, the screen redirects to the endpoint and provides an error message or flyout that can be selected for more information regarding the error.
 Common Errors when Configuring Your Endpoint
 For more information, review the AADSTS700016, AADSTS90002, and ADDSTS50126 issues on the Common Errors Using Modern Authentication page.
 Add Accounts
 Add the accounts (also referred to as "items") to be migrated to the project. You can use the LotusExtractor.csv that was generated when setting up the Lotus Extractor to bulk-add the users. You can edit the .csv before using it to bulk import.
 This generated file contains all identified user email addresses from the Domino Directory. Our Lotus Notes migration solution requires administrative credentials, so the "Source Username" and "Source Password" fields will not be used in either the LotusExtractor.csv or the Bulk Upload option within MigrationWiz.
 Steps:
 1. Open the folder where the Lotus Extractor has been installed.
 2. Locate the LotusExtractor.csv file.
 3. Copy the LotusExtractor.csv file to the desktop or another location.
 4. Open the copy

How Data security and Employee Cultural differences are related to outsourcing?
October 9, 2008
With globalization and offshore outsourcing on the rise, several companies have employees and contractors using their business critical data in various countries like India, China, Brazil, etc. Many companies do not have comprehensive security policies and procedures to mange their business data in offshore locations. Cisco systems sponsored a study to find the cultural differences of employees working in various countries and how it affects their handling of secure data. The study finds that employees and their culture play a key role in the security of business critical data.
Offshore Data Security
The study interviewed IT decision makers in the following countries: US, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, China, India, Australia and Brazil, following is the result of the study:
1. Many countries did not have issues like denial of attack, worm in Email, etc, like US and UK, so the employees in those countries have much more tolerance in using their computer and networks, which are considered security threat in US.
2. Employees in other countries take their laptop home and use it for their personal purpose and they allow outsiders to use their laptop and mobile devices without any supervision. They also share customer problems and issues with their friends and families because they want to find an idea for a problem or just to vent out their daily issues that happened at office.
3. They also alter the security and policy settings in their laptops, which is considered to be a critical
security violation in countries like US and UK.
4. When guests visit employees during office hours, most of the time they were not escorted while entering and leaving a secured office facility. Employees in UK and US generally follow the security procedures and policies more methodically then employees in other countries. In other countries the cultural and social issues plays a key role among the employees and they take the security issues lightly.
offshore Security Survey
Though the offshore vendors and captive centers owned by US companies have state of the art technology in place for security and they are on par with US, but ultimately the employees need to be trained to use and follow the security policies and guidelines set by the parent company in US. If the companies do not take this issue seriously before outsourcing then they compromise the security of their own data. The bottom line is that companies in US and UK can outsource the work, but they cannot outsource their liability to ensure the security of their business data.

Urban Ants Handle Heat Better
The heat of cities is transforming how urban ants respond to extreme temperatures, providing glimpses of the impacts that changes in global climate might trigger, an international team of scientists now reports.
Cities can be 10 to 15 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than surrounding rural zones, with their asphalt roads and other features absorbing and holding more of the sun's energy than natural landscapes. Researchers call this the urban "heat island" effect.
The researchers investigated colonies of leaf-cutter ants (Atta sexdens rubropilosa) inside and outside of São Paulo,Brazil, South America's largest city with a population of more than 11 million people. They focused on how well urban and rural ants tolerated extremes of heat and cold in experimental chambers.
At 107.6 degrees Fahrenheit, the scientists found urban ants lasted 20 percent longer than ants from outside the city before the extreme heat knocked them out. Surprisingly, although the researchers expected that extreme cold would knock city ants out faster, they found urban ants recovered from storage at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) in ice-entombed Petri dishes about as fast as ants from outside the city.
"We don't know whether this pattern will hold up for other species or other cities, but people should certainly be looking," researcher Michael Angilletta of Indiana State University said in a prepared statement. "Ultimately, this research could help us to understand how species will respond to global climate change."
"We will construct thermal maps using satellite images recorded over several years," said researcher Qihao Weng at Indiana State University."These maps will enable us to assess the potential biological consequences of urban warming and identify suitable sites for future experiments."
The scientists report their findings Feb. 28 in the journal PLoS ONE.

When Hope Edelman finished writing Motherless Daughters, she thought she had said all she could about the long-term effects of early mother loss. Published in 1994, the book touched a nerve in women across the country and went on to become an enduring New York Times bestseller. Edelman, who was seventeen when her own mother died, told the collective story of mother loss with such candor, empathy, and informed wisdom that she quickly became a widely recognized expert on the topic.
But when she became a parent, she found herself revisiting her loss in ways she had never anticipated. Now the mother of two young girls, Edelman set out to learn how the loss of a mother to death or abandonment can affect the ways women raise their own children. From her exhaustive investigation, including a survey of more than one thousand women, comes Motherless Mothers, the enlightening and inspiring next step in the motherless journey.
1. Why is pregnancy an especially overwhelming experience for motherless mothers, and how does the prospect of a new mother-child relationship in their lives affect many of these women?
2. How does the experience of having lost a mother impact the emotions of first-time mothers, and how does it tend to influence their treatment of their newborns?
3. How does the author's decision to use examples from her life—including facts about the loss of her mother and details about her relationship with her two young daughters and her husband—to examine the many parenting challenges faced by motherless mothers impact your reading experience?
4. Why are motherless mothers especially vulnerable to feelings of guilt and anxiety when issues involving separation from their children arise in their everyday lives, and how does the author suggest they might deal productively with these feelings?
5. Why do motherless mothers tend to be overprotective of their children, and how does this overly protective attitude connect to their own desire to protect themselves from future loss?
6. What do studies reveal about the importance of maternal grandmothers, and how significant is this absence for the children of motherless mothers?
7. How can anxiety about death be good for one's psychological health, according to the author, and how does this anxiety manifest itself in motherless mothers?
8. How does the early loss of a parent help motherless mothers to emotionally identify with their children?
9. Why might the conflict, rebellion, and rejection so typical in relationships with adolescent children be especially difficult and problematic for motherless mothers?
10. How does the survey that the author includes in the index of the book reveal a clear picture of the motherless mothers interviewed for this book? Were there any other questions you would have liked seen added to the survey? Which ones?
Hope Edelman has a bachelor's degree in journalism from Northwestern University and a master's degree in creative nonfiction writing from the University of Iowa. She is the author of the New York Times bestseller Motherless Daughters and its companion volume, Letters from Motherless Daughters. Her work has appeared in numerous magazines, newspapers, and anthologies. She lives in Los Angeles, California, with her husband and their two daughters.

Men with short ring fingers may a better chance of surviving prostate cancer, according to a new study.
The latest findings show that cancer victims responded better to an anti-tumor drug if their ring finger was shorter than their index finger.
Scientists explain that previous findings show that men with short ring fingers are thought to have lower levels of the hormone testosterone, which is known to help prostate tumors grow.
Korean medical researchers tested the theory on 142 participants aged 40 and younger and found that men with short ring fingers responded better to dutasteride, a drug that combats cancer by blocking the effects of testosterone on the prostate.
Previous research has also linked finger length to the risks of conditions like heart disease, osteoarthritis, depression and Motor Neuron Disease.
Experts say that the difference in length between the two fingers is determined by the amount of testosterone a baby is exposed to while it is still in the womb, and researchers believe that the difference in finger length can have a significant effect on health later in life.
While men generally have longer ring fingers, women tend to have ring and index fingers that are similar in length. However, the length between the two fingers varies from one person to another.
Over 214,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year in the U.S. and nearly 28,000 men die from it.
The risk for prostate cancer increase with age and although it is rarely found in men younger than 40, it is the most common cause of death from cancer in men over the age of 75.
A common problem in almost all men as they age is an enlarged prostate called benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH, and while it is not known to raise the risk of prostate cancer it can increase PSA levels, a measure used to screen men for prostate cancer. BPH is a condition that is prevalent in men over the age of 50 where the prostate grows and blocks the flow of urine.
However the latest findings from Seoul National University in South Korea suggest that healthcare providers might soon be able to predict who will respond best to treatment by measuring men's ring and index fingers.
While the men in the latest study, published in the British Journal of Urology, did not have cancer, they did have enlarged prostates or BPH.
Doctors have for many years prescribed dutasteride to treat BPH and prostate cancer, and participants in the study took the drug every day for half a year.
Results from the study showed that there was a significantly larger reduction in men with short ring fingers after the six-month treatment compared to men with long ring fingers.
"These results suggest finger length might predict the response to dutasteride treatment," study authors concluded.

QUILT OF HONOUR CAMPAIGN
A speaker, mother, widow, and award-winning volunteer, Susan Hess speaks from the heart of real life experience. She moves audiences to both laughter and tears with stories about bringing up a child with mental illness.
While others ask what can be done about "out-of-control" kids, sad kids or angry kids, Susan is providing answers and changing lives.
Choose from among Susan's distinctive, informative, motivational and inspirational presentations. If you live or work with children in any way, you will gain fresh insight and understanding from Susan's presentation.
Please don't forget my daughter: Stories behind the Quilt of Honour
A strong advocate on behalf of children with mental health problems, Susan uses the Quilt of Honour as a visible testament to all children who struggle with mental illness. Susan shares the compelling stories of the children on the Quilt of Honour, including her own daughter's journey from chaotic violent illness to award-winning volunteer.
The stories of the children who are featured on the Quilt of Honour emphasize the importance of mental health services, treatments and supports for the child as well as the family.
Stigma: We Can, We Will, We Must
A gripping presentation about how stigma affects people's reactions to traumatic illness or tragedy in the lives of others. Drawing from her family's experience with suicide, cancer, and mental illness, Susan tells what stigma looks like, its impact on people's lives, and how to overcome stigma in yourself and others.
A note for high schools:
Susan has developed a special stigma presentation suitable for teenage audiences. Working with selected student leaders, she presents an interactive demonstration of the impact of bullying, name-calling and labeling. Susan's no-holds-barred approach holds the students' interest and helps them understand clearly the reality of stigma and how to triumph over it. Students have said, "Thank you for telling our story.
School is both the social and work environment for children. Using examples from her daughter's experiences at school, and her own knowledge as a teacher, Susan distinguishes between discipline and punishment in the schools, and how those terms might have different applications for children with mental health problems. The presentation includes practical suggestions for educators on recognizing and nurturing children with mental health problems.
Coping with mental illness tears families apart, destroys lives, and plunges survivors into darkness. Children and families can become victims, adapt and survive. By following a small light of hope and finding the fragments of joy, Susan Hess tells the story of how she held herself and her family together and brought them successfully into a new life. In this presentation, Susan inspires her audience to believe that finding the light in the darkness is not only possible, but the only choice.
From Here to There: Parent Mobilization
Susan outlines the steps taken to develop the Quilt of Honour Campaign and expand it into a model of parent mobilization that works. From an idea to presentations to workshops, Susan talks about the vision, the risks and the results of giving parents a voice.
Workshop: Caring for the Caregiver
This workshop is especially designed for anyone caring for someone who is seriously physically or mentally ill. Find out how to be selfish in a positive way, recognize warning signs of overload, and techniques of caring for yourself so you can care for others.
Workshop: Coping with Suicide
This workshop follows Susan Hess' personal journey as she describes the impact of suicide on her family and her community. The workshop includes a discussion of the reality of stigma associated with suicide, and the family's eventual triumph over it.
What do people say about the Quilt of Honour presentation?
"Thank you for telling your story and removing the stigma and isolation that exist for those of us affected by children's mental illness."
"Your gentle and compassionate spirit invites warmth and love in all you do."
"You have moved my soul."
"Your seminar reminds us of why we come to work each day. We understand that we do make a difference."
"No book can teach in the way a person sharing their personal journey can."
Past Volunteer President of Parents for Children's Mental Health, Susan is available to speak to your organization, church, school, community or business about the impact of children's mental health problems on the children and their families. Susan draws universal truths from her experiences that resonate with many types of audiences including social workers, medical professionals, high school students, teachers, parents, business leaders, legal professionals and politicians.

Attending a Greater Vancouver Board of Trade luncheon yesterday, the Minister of Transport Marc Garneau praised the partnership with Green Marine that has led to a better understanding of underwater noise generated by commercial shipping and port activities, along with its impacts and possible mitigations measures.
"My officials have been working closely with Green Marine on a study to improve understanding of the impacts of both natural and human-caused underwater noise on marine animals," he explained. "The study is available on the Transport Canada website so that all can benefit from its insights."
Garneau was delighted to see Green Marine launch two new performance indicators for underwater noise in its North American environmental certification program. The indicators deal with underwater noise emanating from ships and port activities respectively, with the goal of reducing the impact on marine mammals.
"These indicators were developed with the collaboration of experts from the marine research and science community, environmental non-government organizations, and the federal government," he added. "This leadership initiative is the first of its kind in the world – one in which companies will be formally evaluated on their efforts to reduce underwater noise from their operations."
The new underwater noise performance indicators will be optional during the first year of assessment (in 2017), as is always the case when new indicators are added to the program. They will subsequently be mandatory to obtain Green Marine certification.Back to news


What is significant about the number 21 for the military
What does the 21 stand for in the 21 gun salute?
Land batteries, having a greater supply of gunpowder, were able to fire three guns for every shot fired afloat, hence the salute by shore batteries was 21 guns. The 21 – gun salute became the highest honor a nation rendered. Varying customs among the maritime powers led to confusion in saluting and return of salutes.
Who started the 21 gun salute?
President Franklin D. Roosevelt, embarked on Indianapolis, receives a 21 – gun salute from Coast Guard Cutter Mojave, during the presidential fleet, 1934. The cannon in shore batteries (with ample stores of dry, usable gunpowder) would fire three shots in return for every single shot they heard coming from the sea.
Do all veterans get a 21 gun salute?
At military funerals, one often sees three volleys of shots fired in honor of the deceased veteran. It is often mistaken by the laymen as a 21 – gun salute, although it is different. Anyone who is entitled to a military funeral will receive the three rifle volleys, subject to availability of honor guard teams.
How many shots are fired at a military funeral?
three volleys
Why do they put 3 bullets in the flag?

Can you unfold a military funeral flag?
Again, while the flag code does not mention the usage of funeral flags, it does not expressly forbid the unfolding and flying of the flag after the funeral service.

Why are three shots fired at a military funeral?
However, at most military funerals what many mistake for a 21-gun salute is actually an honor guard team firing three volleys from rifles. This tradition comes from traditional battle ceasefires where each side would clear the dead. The firing of three volleys indicated the dead were cleared and properly cared for.
Why are 21 shots fired at military funerals?
What do you do at an open casket?
What are the fundamental aspects of an open casket funeral? They take care of the embalming of the body. The body has to be dressed. The funeral home can also use some makeup on the body. The people from the funeral home will also take care of the deceased's hair.

Ever made an edible Jello rainbow? Although rainbow Jello takes several hours to assemble, the process is simple and it's a great snack for the kids. Here are the steps to make your own rainbow Jello.
Makes approximately 10 servings; double if necessary.
- 1 cup whipped topping (optional)
- 1 small box of each Jello color: red, blue, yellow, green, orange, and purple
Make Rainbow Jello
1Prepare one batch of Jello according to the directions on the packet. For an authentic rainbow effect, start with red and work your way upwards through the color spectrum (or choose purple and work downwards).
- If there is a "quick chill" method involving ice cubes, use that method.
2Fill the bottom of each cup with the first batch of Jello. Make the levels even for the nicest effect, then set the leftover Jello aside.
3Place the pan in the refrigerator for approximately 15 minutes to set.
4Mix a few tablespoons of whipped topping into the leftover Jello mix if desired. If you don't want whipped layers in your rainbow, skip this step.
5Remove the cups from the refrigerator and place a thin layer of the opaque mixture onto the first color if desired. Again, skip this step if you'd prefer not to include whipped cream in the Jello.
6Repeat the steps above for each color, allowing for approximately 15 minutes of refrigerator time between every layer. Garnish with a dollop of whipped topping if desired.
Can I put it in the freezer?wikiHow ContributorYou can, but you may end up with a different texture, and the taste is not as good.
- Though this recipe recommend a 15-minute set time per layer, the actual time will vary based on the temperature of your refrigerator. Before applying additional layers, touch the topmost layer to see if it has set; if it's firm to the touch but still sticky, it's ready for the next layer.
- If the opaque layer starts to set up before you get to spoon it out, place in the microwave for a moment to reconstitute it to a slightly liquid state.
- You may substitute vegan gelatins such as agar or vegetable gums.
- Adding fruit to this recipe, while interesting, disrupts the "rainbow." If you want to make multi-colored Jello fruit salad, go for it! (But don't add pineapple, papaya or kiwi unless it is cooked, because fresh versions contain an enzyme which might prevent the Jello from setting). If you want to make edible rainbows, stick with the recipe.
- Water that is heated in the microwave can overheat and erupt when handled. Always wait for bubbles before you open the door. If you don't get bubbles after a reasonable period of time, do not open the door or reach in until the water has had ample time to cool. Alternatively, just heat it over the stove.
- Jello is not a vegetarian dessert. Gelatin is a protein produced by partial hydrolysis of collagen extracted from the bones, connective tissues, organs, and some intestines of animals such as cattle and horses.
Things You'll Need
- Ten 10-ounce clear plastic cups
- A cake pan or tray large enough to hold the cups

In all their international relief work, Tzu Chi abides by four basic principles of timeliness, directness, priority, and practicality. Tzu Chi provides relief supplies such as food, rice seeds, clothing, blankets, and medical supplies to disaster-hit nations. It has also developed long-term relief plans, such as the rebuilding of houses and schools and developing water sources. Although the type of relief it provides may differ depending on the situation, Tzu Chi serves all who need aid with the same humanitarian spirit.
Tzu Chi carries out this mission in four ways. First, it offers aid independently as an organization, using its own resources, as it did in the eastern China flood in 1991, and in winter relief in Mongolia the following year. Second, it works with its overseas offices for disaster relief, such as during the 2003 earthquake in Iran, and the massive 2004 earthquake and tsunami in the Indian Ocean that affected several countries and claimed some 220,000 lives. Third, overseas offices also work independently, as they have done in the African nations of Mozambique, Zimbabwe, and Botswana since 1992. Fourth, Tzu Chi joins forces with other international charity organizations, such as Medecins du Monde for war victims in Ethiopia and Rwanda in 1993 to 1994, Knightsbridge International for earthquake survivors in Afghanistan in 1998, and the Red Cross for 9/11 in New York, Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans in 2005, and Hurricane Sandy and in the eastern United States, Puerto Rico, Cuba, and others, in 2012.

Wisconsin's population could grow by 800,000 people over the next three decades. A report from the state and UW-Madison Applied Population Laboratory projects a 14 percent growth rate over the next 30 years, which would bring the state population up to 6.5 million residents by 2040.
The report is based on 2010 census data and other population projection models, according to David Egan-Robertson with the UW-Madison Applied Population Laboratory. He says it's meant to help officials get an idea of the possible age distribution, mortality rates, and migrations into the state in the coming years.
Egan-Robertson says they expect the most rapid growth over the next decade or so, as the economy improves. The addition of more jobs will spark new migration into Wisconsin, which usually increases birth rates as well.
Growth could drop off around 2026, as the leading edge of the baby boomers start hitting their mid-80s. Egan-Roberts says nearly one-in-four Wisconsinites are expected to be age 65 or older by 2040, which is almost double the level of where that demographic currently rests.
Information from the report is expected to help the state project and plan what infrastructure improvements and additional services may be needed as the make-up of the population changes.

Automatic Verification of Generated HDL Code from Simulink
The automatic verification feature integrates verification as part of the workflow for HDL cosimulation using the HDL Workflow Advisor. During this workflow, Simulink® generates a test bench model for HDL cosimulation. This test bench model compares the generated HDL DUT outputs (coming through the HDL Cosimulation block) with the original Simulink block outputs. The automatic verification step automatically runs this test bench. This step returns pass/fail information depending if the outputs of the HDL DUT match the output of original Simulink block in the test bench.
