Politics, Language, and Thought
The Somali Experience
Twelve years after independence, a military government was able to settle the acrimonious controversy by announcing that Somali would be the official language and Latin the basic script. It was hoped that this choice would foster political equality and strengthen the national culture. Politics, Language, and Thought is an exploration of how language and politics interrelate in the Somali Republic. Using both historical and experimental evidence, David D. Laitin demonstrates that the choice of an official language may significantly affect the course of a country's political development.
Part I of Laitin's study is an attempt to explain why the parliamentary government was incapable of reaching agreement on a national script and to assess the social and political consequences of the years of nondecision. Laitin shows how the imposition of nonindigenous languages produced inequalities which eroded the country's natural social basis of democracy.
Part 2 attempts to relate language to political thought and political culture. Analyzing interviews and role-playing sessions among Somali bilingual students, Laitin demonstrates that the impact of certain political concepts is quite different when expressed in different languages. He concludes that the implications of choosing a language are far more complex than previously thought, because to change the language of a people is to change the ways they think and act politically.

A rusted grill may seem incapable of cooking food, but with a little elbow grease, you can clean it up and have a functional grill in no time. If the grill is highly rusted, it may be necessary to replace it. Nevertheless, if it's only a bit rusted, you should be able to clean it up and get it running again.
- Begin by removing any loose rust from the grill using a wire brush.
- Then, make a one-part vinegar-to-one-part-water solution and use it to clean the grill.
- Clean and dry the grill with clean water.
- It is now time to oil the grill.
- Apply a little coating of vegetable oil to the whole surface of the grill using a paper towel.
- Prepare the grill for 10-15 minutes on medium heat before cooking.

How to treat a rusty grill
Don't give up if your grill has begun to rust! There are a few simple ways to restore a rusted grill to its former glory.
Using a wire brush to remove rust from the surface of the grill is one method of treating rust.
You don't want to spread the rust everywhere, so make sure you remove all of it before you start cleaning.
When the rust has been removed, apply a rust-resistant coating to the grill. This will assist to keep the rust from reappearing.
A vinegar and water solution is another option for treating a rusted grill. Just combine equal parts vinegar and water and apply with a cloth to the grill. Let a few minutes for the solution to rest before wiping it away.
If your grill is really rusted, you may need to sand the surface before applying a rust-resistant coating. Be careful to use a fine-grit sandpaper to avoid damaging the grill's surface.
After you've removed the rust, thoroughly clean the grill before using it.
This will aid in the removal of any remaining rust-resistant coating or vinegar solution.
With a little time and work, you can restore your rusted grill to its former glory!
Is it ok to cook on a rusty griddle
If you're wondering if you can cook on a rusted griddle, the short answer is yes! Although not ideal, cooking on a rusted griddle is entirely acceptable. Just be sure to clean it well before you begin cooking to eliminate any stray rust particles.
If your griddle is significantly rusty, it's probably time to replace it. But don't panic if it's just beginning to show symptoms of wear; you may still use it for cooking.
Can you cook on rusty cast iron
There is much disagreement over whether you can cook on rusted cast iron. Others believe that's acceptable as long as you season it appropriately. Some claim that it is not safe to cook on.
It is critical to season rusty cast iron before cooking with it. This entails sprinkling it with oil and baking it in the oven. This will provide a barrier between the food and the rust, preventing it from seeping into the meal.
Rusted cast iron may be used for cooking, but it must first be seasoned. This will provide a barrier between the food and the rust, preventing it from seeping into the meal.
Rusty grill grates
Don't be discouraged if your barbecue grates are beginning to rust. There are a few simple techniques to clean them and restore them to their former splendor.
A wire brush may be used to remove rust off barbecue grates.
This will need some elbow grease, but it is the most effective method for removing rust. A vinegar and water solution is another method for removing rust. Soak a towel in the solution and scrape the rust off the grates.
If your grill grates are severely rusted, they may need to be replaced. But first, try one of these methods to see if you can clean them up and extend their useful life!
Can you cook on a rusty grill
Cooking on a rusted grill is not recommended. Rust can contaminate food and cause gastrointestinal problems.
How do you clean a rusty grill
Don't be discouraged if your grill is beginning to rust. You can restore it to new condition with a little elbow work and the correct cleansers. How to Clean a Rusted Grill
1. Remove the grill grates and any other detachable elements first. Soak them for around 30 minutes in a mix of hot water and dish soap.
2. Scrub the interior of the grill with a wire brush while the grates soak.
Be careful to dig into all of the nooks and crannies!
3. Thoroughly rinse the grill with a hose and then dry it with a clean towel.
4. It's now time to attack the rust.
There are many approaches you may take. You may use rust-removal spray, white vinegar, or even Coca-Cola to remove the rust!
5. After the rust has been removed, carefully clean and dry the grill.
6. Replace the grill grates and other components, and you're ready to cook!
Cleaning a rusted grill might be time-consuming, but it is well worth the effort. With a little elbow grease, you'll have a grill that looks brand new.
What are the best ways to prevent rust on a grill
If you're referring to a BBQ grill, the best methods to avoid rust are to clean it on a regular basis, fully dry it after cleaning, and apply an oil coating before storage.
If you live in a humid climate, you might consider keeping your grill in a covered place.
If your grill is starting to rust, you may be wondering if it is still safe to use. The good news is that you can still use a rusted grill, but there are a few things to consider. Then, use a wire brush to scrape the rust off the grill grates before cooking.
This will help to keep the rust from getting into your food. Second, cook at a lower temperature than normal to prevent harming the grill grates. Finally, inspect the grill on a regular basis and reapply a layer of paint or sealant as needed to prevent rust from returning.
Is it safe to cook on a rusted grill?
A grill with loose rust is unsafe because it may stick to the food; however, a grate with minor surface rust can be cleaned and treated to be used again. While ingesting rust in one meal is unlikely to cause harm, continuous ingestion may be harmful to the intestinal tract.
How do you get rust off grill grates?
Rust Remover Made with Vinegar and Salt
In a spray bottle, combine 2 parts vinegar and 1 part salt. Cover the grates completely with the vinegar solution and place them in an old plastic bag overnight. After soaking the grill grates overnight, wipe them off with an old towel to remove any rust residue.
Will rust on a grill burn off?
The best approach for removing basic surface rust is to heat the barbeque and then clean it with ammonia. After starting a fire and letting it burn for approximately 30 minutes, extinguish it and allow the unit to cool until it is warm but not too hot to handle.
Why is my grill so rusty?
Keeping cooked fat and trash off the surface of your grill helps the Chromium to perform its job of preventing rust. One of the most crucial distinctions to make is that grease and oil are not the same thing. Rust is caused by grease; oiling your grill grates prevents rust. removing food particles
Can WD 40 remove rust from a grill?
Remove the rack and WD-40® Specialist® Cleaner & Degreaser any filth. After a few minutes, take a wire brush and scrub clean. Use WD-40® Specialist® Rust Remover Soak for larger applications, particularly on metal grills and grill equipment that can be readily soaked.
Will Dawn clean grill grates?
Dawn® aids in the breakdown of stuck-on food, oil, and filth, allowing you to spend less time cleaning and more time with your family. When your grates have sat for a while, give them a brisk clean using a bristle-free or stiff nylon grill brush.
How often should you replace your grill?
Every three years, the typical American changes their grill. Routine maintenance and prompt repairs, on the other hand, may greatly increase that lifetime. According to Business Insider, adequate cleaning and upkeep may maintain a gas barbecue in good working order for 5 to 15 years.

Nintendo's 3D Can Be Switched Off (But What Does This Mean For Games?)
Seeking to allay fears over the possible health problems associated with playing games in 3D, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has said that his company's upcoming 3DS handheld will have a "toggle", allowing users to switch between 2D and 3D.
From a legal standpoint, it's a solid decision. There are many people with conditions that mean playing in 3D is either painful or just doesn't work, so having the option of playing games in 2D gets around this problem easily.
But what does it mean for 3D games? If there's an "off" switch for the technology, does that mean the games won't make fundamental use of it, since they'll need to be designed to run in both 2D and 3D? That'd reduce the tech to a mere gimmick.
Or will it mean that some games will need to be marked "3D Only", meaning those who can't play in 3D (or don't want to) are straight out of luck?
It's a messy situation to find yourself in. Then again, when it comes to the transition to 3D entertainment, messy seems par for the course.

Burn Heterotopic Ossification Risk Calculator
Heterotopic ossification (HO), the development of abnormal bone in the soft tissue, is a rare but severely debilitating complication of burn injuries. The Boston-Harvard Burn Injury Model System developed a risk scoring system that can be used to predict HO at the time of hospital admission.
Burn Calculator
This Calculator is intended to be used at time of admission to determine an adult burn patient's risk of developing heterotopic ossification.
To use this calculator:
 1. Select burn size category represented as the percentage of the body surface area with second and third degree burns (%TBSA)
 2. Select areas with deep burns that are highly likely to require an operation for burn wound excision and skin grafting (auto graph)
The point sum produced can be matched with a percent risk in the table below. The average risk of HO is 3.06%.
Select percentage of body with second and third degree burns (%TBSA)*
Selection required to calculate risk.
Select areas with deep burns that are highly likely to require an operation for burn wound excision and skin grafting (autograft)
Heterotopic Ossification Risk
Point Sum Median Percent Risk Compared to Average Risk
0 0.04% < average risk
1 0.16% < average risk
2 0.18% < average risk
3 0.55% < average risk
4 0.88% < average risk
5 2.34% < average risk
6 1.69% < average risk
7 4.88% 1.6 times the average risk
8 9.77% 3.2 times the average risk
9 18.21% 6.0 times the average risk
10 34.96% 11.4 times the average risk
11 52.28% 17.1 times the average risk
12 70.16% 22.9 times the average risk
13 72.79% 23.8 times the average risk
This calculator was developed using data from the Burn Model System National Database. The records of 3,693 adult burn patients were analyzed for potentioal predictors of the development of heterotopic ossification (HO). It was found that total body surface area burned (TBSA), and the need for grafting of the head/neck, arm, and trunk weere associated with an increased risk of HO.

name>
Disable dissection of heuristic protocol.
--enable-protocol <proto_name>[,<proto_name>,…]
Enable dissection of proto_name. Use a proto_name of ALL to override your chosen profile's default disabled protocol list and temporarily enable all protocols which are enabled by default.
If a protocol is implicated in both --disable-protocol and --enable-protocol, the protocol is enabled. This allows you to temporarily disable all protocols but a list of exceptions. Example: --disable-protocol ALL --enable-protocol eth,ip
--enable-heuristic <short_name>
Enable dissection of heuristic protocol.
-K <keytab>
Load kerberos crypto keys from the specified keytab file. This option can be used multiple times to load keys from several files.
Example: -K krb5.keytab
-n
Disable network object name resolution (such as hostname, TCP and UDP port names); the -N option might override this one.
-N <name resolving flags>
Turn on name resolving only for particular types of addresses and port numbers, with name resolving for other types of addresses and port numbers turned off. This option (along with -n) can be specified multiple times; the last value given overrides earlier ones. This option and -n override the options from the preferences, including preferences set via the -o option. If both -N and -n options are not present, the values from the preferences are used, which default to -N dmN.
The argument is a string that may contain the letters:
d to enable resolution from captured DNS packets
g to enable IP address geolocation information lookup from configured MaxMind databases
m to enable MAC address resolution
n to enable network address resolution
N to enable using external resolvers (e.g., DNS) for network address resolution; no effect without n also enabled.
t to enable transport-layer port number resolution
v to enable VLAN IDs to names resolution
--only-protocols <protocols>
Only enable dissection of these protocols, comma separated. Disable everything else.
-t (a|ad|adoy|d|dd|e|r|u|ud|udoy)[.[N]]|.[N]
Set the format of the packet timestamp displayed in the default time column. The format can be one of:
a absolute: The absolute time, as local time in your time zone, is the actual time the packet was captured, with no date displayed
ad absolute with date: The absolute date, displayed as YYYY-MM-DD, and time, as local time in your time zone, is the actual time and date the packet was captured
adoy absolute with date using day of year: The absolute date, displayed as YYYY/DOY, and time, as local time in your time zone, is the actual time and date the packet was captured
d delta: The delta time is the time since the previous packet was captured
dd delta_displayed: The delta_displayed time is the time since the previous displayed packet was captured
e epoch: The time in seconds since epoch (Jan 1, 1970 00:00:00)
r relative: The relative time is the time elapsed between the first packet and the current packet
u UTC: The absolute time, as UTC, is the actual time the packet was captured, with no date displayed
ud UTC with date: The absolute date, displayed as YYYY-MM-DD, and time, as UTC, is the actual time and date the packet was captured
udoy UTC with date using day of year: The absolute date, displayed as YYYY/DOY, and time, as UTC, is the actual time and date the packet was captured
.[N] Set the precision: N is the number of decimals (0 through 9). If using "." without N, automatically determine precision from trace.
The default format is relative with precision based on capture format.
-u <s|hms>
Specifies how packet timestamp formats in -t which are relative times (i.e. relative, delta, and delta_displayed) are displayed. Valid choices are:
s for seconds
hms for hours, minutes, and seconds
The default format is seconds.
DIAGNOSTIC OPTIONS
--log-level <level>
Set the active log level. Supported levels in lowest to highest order are "noisy", "debug", "info", "message", "warning", "critical", and "error". Messages at each level and higher will be printed, for example "warning" prints "warning", "critical", and "error" messages and "noisy" prints all messages. Levels are case insensitive.
--log-fatal <level>
Abort the program if any messages are logged at the specified level or higher. For example, "warning" aborts on any "warning", "critical", or "error" messages.
--log-domains <list>
Only print messages for the specified log domains, e.g. "GUI,Epan,sshdump". List of domains must be comma-separated. Can be negated with "!" as the first character (inverts the match).
--log-debug <list>
Force the specified domains to log at the "debug" level. List of domains must be comma-separated. Can be negated with "!" as the first character (inverts the match).
--log-noisy <list>
Force the specified domains to log at the "noisy" level. List of domains must be comma-separated. Can be negated with "!" as the first character (inverts the match).
--log-fatal-domains <list>
Abort the program if any messages are logged for the specified log domains. List of domains must be comma-separated.
--log-file <path>
Write log messages and stderr output to the specified file.
READ FILTER SYNTAX
For a complete table of protocol and protocol fields that are filterable in TShark see the wireshark-filter(4) manual page.
FILES
These files contains various Wireshark configuration values.
Preferences
The preferences files contain global (system-wide) and personal preference settings. If the system-wide preference file exists, it is read first, overriding the default settings. If the personal preferences file exists, it is read next, overriding any previous values. Note: If the command line option -o is used (possibly more than once), it will in turn override values from the preferences files.
The preferences settings are in the form prefname:value, one per line, where prefname is the name of the preference and value is the value to which it should be set; white space is allowed between : and value. A preference setting can be continued on subsequent lines by indenting the continuation lines with white space. A # character starts a comment that runs to the end of the line:
# Capture in promiscuous mode?
# TRUE or FALSE (case-insensitive).
capture.prom_mode: TRUE
The global preferences file is looked for in the wireshark directory under the share subdirectory of the main installation directory. On macOS, this would typically be /Application/Wireshark.app/Contents/Resources/share; on other UNIX-compatible systems, such as Linux, \*BSD, Solaris, and AIX, this would typically be /usr/share/wireshark/preferences for system-installed packages and /usr/local/share/wireshark/preferences for locally-installed packages; on Windows, this would typically be C:\Program Files\Wireshark\preferences.
On UNIX-compatible systems, the personal preferences file is looked for in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wireshark/preferences, (or, if $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wireshark does not exist while $HOME/.wireshark does exist, $HOME/.wireshark/preferences); this is typically $HOME/.config/wireshark/preferences. On Windows, the personal preferences file is looked for in %APPDATA%\Wireshark\preferences (or, if %APPDATA% isn't defined, %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Wireshark\preferences).
Disabled (Enabled) Protocols
The disabled_protos files contain system-wide and personal lists of protocols that have been disabled, so that their dissectors are never called. The files contain protocol names, one per line, where the protocol name is the same name that would be used in a display filter for the protocol:
http
tcp # a comment
The global disabled_protos file uses the same directory as the global preferences file.
The personal disabled_protos file uses the same directory as the personal preferences file.
Name Resolution (hosts)
If the personal hosts file exists, it is used to resolve IPv4 and IPv6 addresses before any other attempts are made to resolve them. The file has the standard hosts file syntax; each line contains one IP address and name, separated by whitespace. The same directory as for the personal preferences file is used.
Capture filter name resolution is handled by libpcap on UNIX-compatible systems, such as Linux, macOS,

Uses of water testing-agro farm
People used to put a lot of efforts on growing the crops with proper irrigation. Agriculture field in all cases requires a huge amount of water facility to grow the crops in a good phase. Though everyone knows the importance of water facility and the WasteWater Management for the different types of agricultural purposes, no one cares about the necessity to use the quality water in their farmland. There is a list of parameters structured by Agro Farm Management experts is available for the farmland owners to check before using the specific water for their crops during the cultivation. Reading all the guidelines will surely help the farm owners to cultivate the farmland in a much better way with good yield in the crop level.
Need for Water Testing
You may not know the real importance of Water testing Laboratories in Dubai, but these institutes have made many serious and positive impacts on the running agricultural and farm companies. These organizations provide the proper testing results to let you know about the suitability of using the quality water.
· Small aquatic organisms in the water can be sustained only with the proper pH level in the water bodies around the farm area and these Water testing Laboratories in Dubai helps you in providing the better idea about the resources.
· Institutes doing the Diagnostic and Analysis in Dubai for the water will help you know the fitness of water to use it for the irrigation purposes which is an essential one for the agro farm.
· Many experts know the importance of pond fertilization or alum treatment. Expert submits testing reports to the clients in the most efficient way.
· Suitability of the water to be used beneath the container-grown plants is tested in the water testing laboratory with the latest techniques and equipment in the Lab.
How useful is the checklist in the lab expert hand?
All the Consultancy Services for Food will maintain a checklist in their hand before going for the inspection in the water affected area. This checklist will give themselves a better idea where to start and how to finish the testing procedures without any unwanted confusion. Test results and the advice from the water testing experts will bring huge benefit to the farm owners.
Things you can find and sort out with this testing
By hiring an experienced Food and Water Diagnostic and Analysis in Dubai, you can enhance the farmland. Problems in the farmland cannot be visible to the naked eye those defects can be tested and rectified with the help of Agro Farm Management specialists.
· Salinity in the Water
High-level of salt accumulates around the root zone of the crops affects the crop yield and productivity. Salinity nature makes the crop ineffective of extracting the adequate amount of water from the ground level. Water testing team can help the farm owners identify the salinity at the early level to guide them in the right way with the possible solution for this.
· Infiltration and Miscellaneous effects
With Infiltration, plants subjected to severe trouble during the irrigation period. Possible testing at the initial stage can help you avoid seed rotting, failure of the nutritional level of the plants and much more.
The Miscellaneous effect on the crops is due to the increased level of nitrogen content in the water causing the plant's growth results in immature growth. If you have such low-quality water in your area, through proper Waste WaterManagement, you need to drain all the water as this type of water can cause deadly diseases like malaria, dengue in your living area.
Several ions present in the water affect the sensitive crops to a greater extent and cause severe effect throughout their growth. Sometimes you will be pushed to test your food with the Consultancy Services for Food because of the toxic nature affecting the plants and its fruits.

Meaning and etymology of the name Ammihud
There are four men named Ammihud in the Bible: The father of Elishama of Ephraim (Numbers 1:10), the father of Samuel of Simeon (Numbers 34:20), the father of Pedahel of Naphtali (Numbers 34:28), a son of Omri and the father of Uthai who returned to Jerusalem after the exile (1 Chronicles 9:4).
Most sources also list the father of Talmai, king of Geshur (2 Samuel 13:37) among the men named Ammihud, but his name is (Ammihur). The difference between the two names is in the element after the Ammi-part. This element consists of three letters and two out of three are different. Ammihud and Ammihur are really very different names.
The name Ammihud consists of two elements:
2) There are two ways to go about the second part of the name Ammihud:
Alfred Jones (Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names) inclines towards the verb (yada) meaning to confess, praise, give thanks, and which also gave us the name Judah. But instead of translating Ammihud with People Of Praise or My Kinsman Praises, Jones reads One Of The People Of Judah. Since three out of four Ammihuds in the Bible are typically not of Judah, this rendering seems a bit out of kilter.
Jones' approach would make the name Ammihud kindred to the names
BDB Theological Dictionary and the learned body that produced the NOBS Study Bible Name List see relations with the noun (hod), meaning splendor or majesty. This noun occurs frequently in the Bible, from the authority or majesty of the king (Jeremiah 22:18) or a prophet such as Moses (Numbers 27:20), to the divine splendor of God (Psalm 104:1), and the splendor of Israel due to the blessings of God (Hosea 14:7 - his beauty will be like the olive tree).
Hence NOBS Study Bible Name List reads My Kinsman Is Glorious and BDB Theological Dictionary reads My Kinsman Is Majesty.

text: The principle of causation is fundamental to science and society and has remained an active topic of discourse in philosophy for over two millennia. Modern philosophers often rely on ''neuron diagrams'', a domain-specific visual language for discussing and reasoning about causal relationships and the concept of causation itself. In this paper we formalize the syntax and semantics of neuron diagrams. We discuss existing algorithms for identifying causes in neuron diagrams, show how these approaches are flawed, and propose solutions to these problems. We separate the standard representation of a dynamic execution of a neuron diagram from its static definition and define two separate, but related semantics, one for the causal effects of neuron diagrams and one for the identification of causes themselves. Most significantly, we propose a simple language extension that supports a clear, consistent, and comprehensive algorithm for automatic causal inference.


How To Grow Sodium Nitrate Crystals
Sodium Nitrate crystals
Vadim Sedov/Wikimedia Commons/CC by 4.0
Sodium nitrate is a common chemical, found in food, fertilizer, glass enamel, and pyrotechnics. Sodium nitrate, NaNO3, forms colorless hexagonal crystals. Although these crystals are a bit more challenging to grow than some of the beginner crystals, the interesting crystal structure makes them worth the effort. The crystal somewhat resembles calcite, exhibiting some of the same properties. Sodium nitrate crystals can be used to examine double refraction, cleavage, and glide.
Sodium Nitrate Crystal Growing Solution
 1. Dissolve 110 grams sodium nitrate per 100 ml hot water. This will be a supersaturated solution. One method of growing crystals is to allow this solution to cool in an undisturbed location and allow it to produce crystals as the liquid evaporates.
 2. Another method of growing this crystal is to grow a single crystal in a sealed container from a supersaturated solution. If you choose to follow this method, prepare the aforementioned solution, allow this solution to cool, then add a couple of grains of sodium nitrate and seal the container. The excess sodium nitrate will deposit on the grains, producing a saturated sodium nitrate solution. Allow a couple of days for this to occur.
 3. Pour off the saturated solution. Pour a small amount of this solution into a shallow dish. Allow the liquid to evaporate, to produce small seed crystals. Select a crystal or two for further growth.
 4. To prepare the supersaturated growing solution, to your existing solution add 3 grams of sodium nitrate per 100 ml of water in the original solution. So, if you prepared 300 ml of solution, you would add an extra 9 grams of sodium nitrate.
 5. Carefully add your seed crystal to this liquid. You can suspend the crystal from a nylon monofilament. A nylon monofilament or wire is used because it won't wick up the solution, causing evaporation.
 6. Seal the jar and allow the crystals to grow at a constant temperature, someplace they won't be disturbed. Sodium nitrate is very sensitive to temperature changes, so maintaining a constant temperature is important. If you have difficulty maintaining a temperature, you can place the sealed jar inside a water bath. If you don't see crystal growth after a few days, try lowering the temperature slightly.

Psychotronic NFB: THE SNIFFING BEAR (1992)
Drugs, drugs, drugs–which are good, which are bad? The NFB has been exploring that very subject since World War II. The Board first tackled the illegal narcotics trade in the 1948 film DRUG ADDICT (and a condensed, re-edited version, PAY OFF IN PAIN), a cautionary tale about a heroin addict. As LSD and marijuana gained prominence in the 1960s and 70s, the NFB continued to plumb this social issue with films including ALMOST EVERYONE DOES, BEYOND KICKS and DARKNESS DARKNESS. But no doubt their oddest contribution to the anti-drug film canon is THE SNIFFING BEAR, a seven-minute animated short from 1992 about the dangers of gasoline huffing.
Sniffing toxic chemicals to get high is a serious problem in many northern communities in Canada, but it is rarely addressed by the media. Not only do users face danger from the damaging effects of the chemicals, but also from the flammability of certain substances where proper precautions are not taken. As most gas huffers get started as young teenagers, it's important to reach young children with a message about why this particular illicit activity can be deadly. That makes THE SNIFFING BEAR fairly unique among the NFB's work–meant for pre-teens, it's the only animated anti-drug film in the NFB's collection.
Even young children might find the way the story unfolds a little odd, though. In trying to create a kid-friendly anti-drug short, there's quite a bit of oversimplification happening in this aimless narrative. Basically, the bear finds a plastic gasoline can just sitting there in a smashed igloo, and almost immediately gets his snout right in there. The other animals in the Arctic setting try to knock the can free, apparently trying to warn the bear. It's an allegory, of course, but not a particularly strong one, as it doesn't really illustrate why the sniffing bear should sniff out a different kind of recreation.
And then there's the problem of the way the bear's fume-addled nightmare is depicted. These kinds of films always run the risk of making a hallucinogenic drug reaction look more fun than fearful, and I'm not sure this one is terribly convincing–the possibilities of freaky mask dreams and frequent naps really isn't so bad. It's the other animals that come off like the real downers, at least at first, trying to keep away his precious gas can. Still, as the bear walks away at the end, the anti-drug message is clear. Or at least as clear as an allegorical tale about gas huffing starring a polar bear can be.
Not all similar NFB films contain an anti-drug message. More recently, the NFB has explored the societal effects on the war on drugs itself in films like DAMAGE DONE: THE DRUG WAR ODYSSEY, FIX: THE STORY OF AN ADDICTED CITY and SOCIETIES UNDER THE INFLUENCE. Stoned bears aside, it's this progressive attitude, having evolved over more than 60 years, that makes the NFB such a unique Canadian entity–could you imagine the U.S. government stamping it's name on a film that advocated legalizing narcotics? Me neither.
Bizarrest moment: The bear rips up the heavy plastic gasoline canister in a fit of rage. Is that even possible? Those things are built to last!
Lesson learned: Don't do drugs. Especially if you are a two-dimensional polar bear.

If you're planning to upgrade your garage walls, using plywood can be a practical and versatile choice.
Plywood is known for its strength, durability, and affordability, making it a popular material for various construction and woodworking projects.
Not all plywood is suitable for every application. In this article, we will explore the different types of plywood available in the market and help you determine the best option for your garage walls.
You may also like:
Plywood is an engineered wood product composed of thin layers of wood veneers glued together.
These veneers are stacked with their grain directions alternating, resulting in a strong and stable panel.
The quality and properties of plywood can vary depending on the type of wood used, adhesive quality, and manufacturing process.
Requirements for Garage Walls
Garage walls face unique requirements compared to the interior or exterior walls of a house.
They must withstand potential impacts, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. The plywood used for garage walls should be able to support shelves, hooks, and other storage systems.
With these considerations in mind, let's explore the different types of plywood commonly used for garage walls.
Common Types of Plywood
1. CDX Plywood
CDX plywood is one of the most widely available and commonly used types of plywood in construction. It is made from softwood veneers and has a rough surface.
CDX plywood offers good structural strength, making it suitable for various applications.
It has limited moisture resistance, which makes it less ideal for garage walls or other areas prone to high humidity.
2. ACX Plywood
ACX plywood, also known as A-C exterior plywood, is an upgrade from CDX plywood. It features a smoother surface and a better appearance.
ACX plywood is often chosen for applications where aesthetics matter, such as furniture or cabinetry. It also provides improved moisture resistance, making it more suitable for outdoor projects or areas exposed to moisture.
3. T1-11 Plywood
T1-11 plywood is primarily used as a siding material, but it can also be employed for garage walls with proper precautions.
It offers a rustic and textured look, resembling vertical planks with grooved patterns. T1-11 plywood can add visual interest to your garage walls, but it requires adequate sealing and protection against moisture to prevent damage.
4. Marine-Grade Plywood
Marine-grade plywood is specifically designed to withstand water and moisture exposure. It is constructed using waterproof glue and high-quality veneers, making it highly resistant to rot and delamination.
Marine-grade plywood is an excellent choice for projects that require enhanced moisture resistance, such as boat construction, outdoor furniture, or bathroom installations. It tends to be more expensive than other types of plywood.
5. Fire-Rated Plywood
Fire-rated plywood is treated with special chemicals to resist fire and meet fire safety standards.
While it may not be a requirement for garage walls, choosing fire-rated plywood can provide an additional layer of protection and peace of mind, especially for garages attached to living spaces or located in areas with strict fire regulations.
6. Oriented Strand Board (OSB)
Oriented Strand Board, or OSB, is an alternative to plywood that consists of pressed wood strands and adhesive. It is widely available and relatively affordable.
OSB is more susceptible to moisture damage compared to plywood. It is essential to properly protect and seal OSB if used for garage walls or areas exposed to moisture.
Comparing Plywood Types: Best Features, Pros, and Cons
|Plywood Type||Best Features||Pros||Cons|
|CDX Plywood||Good structural strength||Widely available and affordable||Limited moisture resistance|
|ACX Plywood||Smooth surface, suitable for aesthetics||Resistant to moisture and outdoor exposure||Relatively higher cost compared to CDX plywood|
|T1-11 Plywood||A rustic, textured look||Versatile, can be used for exterior siding and garage walls||Requires proper sealing and protection against moisture|
|Marine-Grade Plywood||Waterproof glue, superior moisture resistance||Excellent durability in wet conditions||Higher cost compared to other plywood types|
|Fire-Rated Plywood||Fire-resistant treatment||Provides additional fire protection||May not be necessary for all garage wall applications|
|Oriented Strand Board (OSB)||Affordable and readily available||Easy to work with and cut||Prone to moisture damage if not properly protected|
Selecting the Best Plywood for Garage Walls
When choosing the best plywood for garage walls, several factors should be considered:
1. Durability and Strength
Garage walls should be able to withstand impacts and support heavy items. Therefore, opt for plywood with good structural strength, such as CDX or ACX plywood.
2. Moisture Resistance
Garages are prone to moisture, especially in humid or coastal areas. Select plywood with adequate moisture resistance, such as marine-grade plywood, to prevent warping, rot, and mold growth.
3. Budget Considerations
Consider your budget when selecting plywood. While marine-grade plywood offers excellent performance, it may be more expensive than other options. Find a balance between quality and cost that suits your requirements.
4. Aesthetics and Finishing Options
If the appearance of your garage walls is important to you, choose plywood with a smooth surface, such as ACX plywood. It provides a cleaner look and can be painted or stained to match your desired aesthetic.
Installation Tips for Garage Wall Plywood
Installing plywood for garage walls requires proper planning and execution. Here are some tips to ensure a successful installation:
- Measure the walls accurately to determine the required plywood dimensions.
- Use appropriate safety equipment, such as gloves and goggles, during the installation process.
- Secure the plywood panels to the studs using suitable fasteners, such as screws or nails.
- Leave a small gap between panels to accommodate expansion and contraction.
- Apply a protective finish or sealant to enhance moisture resistance and durability.
Choosing the right plywood for your garage walls is crucial for long-term performance and durability. Consider factors such as moisture resistance, strength, aesthetics, and budget when making your selection.
By opting for the appropriate type of plywood and following proper installation and maintenance practices, you can create garage walls that are not only functional but also visually appealing.

UCLA researchers plan to use an $11 million federal grant to fund three studies that will look at how low-income communities of color can reduce disparately high rates of stroke among their ranks.
The money will go to the university's Los Angeles Stroke Prevention/Intervention Research Program in Health Disparities, a research center that's partnered with health care systems, organizations and city agencies throughout Los Angeles County.
The funding comes from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, one of the 27 institutes of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Dr. Barbara Vickrey, the director of the Los Angeles Stroke Prevention/Intervention Research Program in Health Disparities, noted that every year the country sees nearly 800,000 strokes, which are the fourth-leading cause of death in the U.S.
"We've got a big problem," she said. "We know there are things we can treat to reduce the risk."
"We know there's a problem," said Vickrey. "We've measured how bad it is but we need interventions that are going to go in and really eliminate those disparities, and we know those interventions have to be community-based."
Vickrey said there are "huge disparities" in stroke occurrence and the treatment of stroke risk factors based on racial and ethnic groups in the U.S. She also said folks who are poor or have less education are more likely to have strokes – some of them deadly – and lack control over the risk factors that lead to stroke.
The five-year, $11-million grant from the NIH will fund three studies, said Vickrey:
- One will focus on people who have already had one stroke, which puts those people at high risk of having another one. This study will look at how the risk of recurrent stroke is lowered by on-the-ground community health workers who make home visits to teach participants how to do things like measure their own blood pressure, read food labels, increase their physical activity and take their medications properly. "That's really key," said Vickrey. "To be in the home, be able to speak folks' own language, to know that community well, to work on all those kinds of changes you need to prevent another stroke."
- Another trial will promote walking within low-income senior centers, and provide residents with brain health education. Researchers will assess the impact of this program, said Vickrey, and "if this is effective in promoting walking, then it can be rolled out to other senior centers across the U.S."
- The third study will be an analysis of several decades' worth of data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, with the goal of identifying new risk factors for stroke.
Vickrey emphasized the importance of these communities' involvement in every step of these projects – from helping to carry out the trials to the evaluation of data.
"The big message, again, is these interventions have to be community-based to be effective," she said. "If they are effective, we want to be poised to disseminate them broadly and maintain them."
Vickrey added that in terms of stroke risk factors, South Los Angeles – along with other communities where there's a heavy reliance on safety-net care – tends to fare worse. The most recent data available from the L.A. County Department of Public Health confirms that.

Configure Workflow Steps, Transitions, and Attributes in the Back-Office
Each process or action applied to a record is called a workflow transition. On the interface, transitions are usually initiated when a user clicks the corresponding button or icon. There are two types of transitions:
 - Transitions that take a user from one state to another and connect to each step in the workflow.
 - Self-transitions that do not change steps in the workflow.
Every workflow has the Start transition that launches the workflow.
A transition can be defined as soon as there is at least one step besides Start. However, it is often simpler to define all workflow steps and then all the transitions between them.
Attributes are characteristics of the record. For example, a ZIP code and a street name are attributes of an address. In the course of each transition, you can change some attributes of the processed record.
A workflow may have configuration parameters (also known as variables). For example, the Alternative Checkout workflow includes reviewing of an order by an authorized person. This is usually required only for orders exceeding a certain amount, so the workflow's configuration parameter enables you to set an order subtotal limit that triggers the alternative checkout.
If enabled (see the section below), the workflow widget displays the process steps defined in workflow configuration on the record view page. Multiple workflow widgets can be displayed for one record at the same time.

Definition - What does Benzene Ring mean?
Benzene ring is a hexagonal arrangement found in Benzene, an organic chemical compound. The hexagonal arrangement of the benzene ring contains 6 carbon atoms, which have single or double bonds between them. Each of the carbon atoms within the ring is tied with a hydrogen atom. In some cases, the carbon atom maybe bonded with either a single atom or a group of atoms. The hexagonal arrangement is found in the molecules of the benzene as well as its derivatives. It is a natural component of crude oil in the petroleum industry. Due to its high octane number, it is an important constituent of the gasoline.
Petropedia explains Benzene Ring
Benzene ring molecule consists of 6 carbon atoms, having 1 hydrogen atom attached to each of the carbon atoms in the shape of a ring. Its chemical formula is C6H6 and this organic chemical compound is the most natural element of crude oil. Benzene is classified as a hydrocarbon, since its molecules have only carbon and hydrogen. Due to its high octane number in its molecular structure, it is an important constituent of gasoline making it an important fuel for engine; with ell as its derivatives. It is a natural component of crude oil in the petroleum industry.

Slurry storage grants on offer
Farmers are being urged to apply for the Scottish Government slurry storage grant by the June 26 deadline.
The grant, which aims to help farmers bring their slurry capacity up to six months, offers contributions towards costs of building the store.
It also helps pay for the necessary ancillary fittings and assemblies, reception tank and transfer pumps.
Applicants are required to prepare a farm waste management plan, storage calculation and a steading drainage plan for the holding.
This needs to identify the additional storage capacity required in order to provide six months slurry storage.
Actions required to minimise the production of dirty water also require to be detailed.
Michael Halliday, farm business consultant at agents Youngs RPS, said: "This grant offers Scottish farmers a valuable opportunity to upgrade or renew their slurry storage facilities for future demands.
"Without doubt the livestock farming industry will experience significant changes during the next few years.
"Ensuring your f a rm infrastructure is sufficient for future requirements is vital for the sustainability of the business.
"However, it is also important to also value the immediate advantages of sufficient slurry storage.
"Farmers can benefit hugely from the greater flexibility offered by spreading slurry at the optimal time to meet crop requirements when nutrient uptake will be higher.
"This, in turn, reduces the risk of nitrates leaching and therefore makes the best use of the slurry nutrients.
"As a result, the need for bought in fertiliser is reduced which has the added benefit of reducing the farms overall carbon footprint."
He added: "Also worthy of a mention is the advantage of having sufficient storage to manage through an exceptional weather event, such as prolonged wet weather when the risk of slurry run-off or causing damage to the soil are high.
"These events are becoming more common and having plentiful storage capacity gives a huge amount of peace of mind to farmers, in addition to the legal, practical and nutritional benefits."
The grant is not available in areas designated as nitrate vulnerable zones.
It cannot be used to increase slurry storage capacity to accommodate an increase in livestock numbers.
Mr Halliday said: "There are many reasons for farmers to consider improving their slurry storage facilities. I urge them to look into their eligibility for this grant.
"Seek professional advice if needed as this grant can make an important contribution to improving farm infrastructure to make your business robust for the future."

The Indian Army is gearing up to upgrade its existing fleet of T-72 tanks by equipping them with a more powerful 1000-hp engine and its associated systems. The upgrade falls under the "MAKE" category, which encourages the involvement of Indian industries in defence projects. As a result, Indian industries have the opportunity to participate in the Transfer of Technology (ToT) for the upgradation of T-72 tanks.
To accommodate the uprated engine and various value-added modules, the weight of the T-72 tank has increased from 41 tonnes to 44 tonnes. The Combat Vehicles Research & Development Establishment (CVRDE) has focused on improving the mobility characteristics of the tank by increasing the power output from the existing engine produced by the Ordnance Factory Board.
The power has been uprated from 780 hp to 1000 hp by retaining the core engine components and replacing only the peripheral systems such as the intake system, exhaust system, cooling system, and lubrication system. The uprated engine has successfully undergone 400 hours of endurance testing.
The integration of the uprated engine into the existing vehicle compartment requires minor modifications. To support the 1000 hp engine, a higher capacity efficient air filtration system and a compact cooling system have been integrated into the available vehicle compartment. Extensive evaluations of the uprated engine have been conducted at Avadi and various desert locations. User trials have been carried out in desert conditions during the summer, as well as medium fording evaluations.
All the upgradation modules required for the T-72 tank, including the turbocharger, charge air cooler, water pump, exhaust manifold, oil filter, air filtration system, and cooling system, are indigenously available. This upgradation solution is proven, easy to implement, time-saving, cost-effective, and completely indigenous, reflecting India's commitment to self-reliance in defence technologies.
The upgrade of the T-72 tanks with the 1000 hp engine and associated systems will significantly enhance the mobility and operational capabilities of the Indian Army's armoured forces. The increased power output will improve the tanks' performance in challenging terrains and combat situations. By incorporating indigenous technology and leveraging the expertise of Indian industries, this upgradation initiative showcases India's progress in developing advanced defence systems and reinforces its commitment to modernizing its armed forces.

Using Tracer Response Curves to Quantify Hydraulic and Channel Complexity of Prairie Creek, Northwestern California: Implications for Over Wintering Habitat for Juvenile Coho Salmonby Montgomery Schmitt,
Document Type: Proceeding Paper
Part of: Watershed Management and Operations Management 2000
This study measured and compared aspects of channel structural complexity with hydraulic complexity at a range of flows including winter storm flows. Five 200-meter reaches containing varying degrees of LWD loading were selected on Prairie Creek, a pristine old growth stream located in Redwood National Park. A fluorescent dye tracer (Rhodamine WT) and fluorometer were used to measure hydraulic retention as an indicator of hydraulic complexity and dead zone fraction over a range of flows. Dead zone fraction, mean velocity and the exchange coefficient were determined by nonlinear least squares fit to a physical nonequilibrium transport model. The statistical moments of the tracer response curves were also used to quantify the reach hydraulic characteristics. Channel complexity was quantified for each study reach using LWD loading surveys and channel and longitudinal profile surveys.

What does lux mean in lighting?
When it comes to lighting, there are various terms you need to learn to choose the right fixture for your home.
So, what exactly is lux, and what role does it play in how we perceive and interact with our environment? This blog aims to explore what lux is, how it's measured, and its impact on both our home and well-being.
For high-quality lighting, browse our LED products today and upgrade your home with Light Supplier.
What is lux?
Lux is a unit of measurement that quantifies the intensity of light as perceived by the human eye in a specific area. This helps us understand how bright a light source appears in certain areas of the home.
This is defined as one lumen per square meter, measuring the amount of light that reflects onto a surface. Unlike lumens which measures raw light output, lux takes into account how light is distributed over an area and is perceived by the human eye.
The same amount of lumens can produce different lux levels depending on how spread out the light is.
The significance of lux in everyday life
Understanding lux is beneficial for creating an ambient atmosphere in your home. Higher levels of lux reduce eye strain, whereas lower levels create a more relaxing environment.
Certain work environments, such as plants or labs, have specific lux requirements to enhance safety and reduce eye strain and fatigue. In public spaces, adequate lux levels ensure visibility and safety during dark hours.
The role of lux in lighting design
The lux requirements of a space are determined when designing lighting for specific areas.
This has to consider certain activities that will take place in the room to enhance efficiency. For example, a kitchen will require a higher level of lux for safety when cooking.
Aesthetics also plays a role in lighting design. The level of lux chosen is often determined by the mood and atmosphere that is desired for the area. Lux can highlight certain architectural features or decor to accentuate the building.
Energy efficiency is also taken into account when determining the amount of lux needed. Lower levels of lux can reduce energy consumption and environmental impact.
Measuring and adjusting lux levels
Measuring lux levels
Lux levels need to be measured using a lux meter.
This quantifies the intensity of light in a given area, and the metres come in various options, such as hand-held devices for simple measurements to complex systems for detailed analysis.
To measure lux, place the meter where the light's impact is most critical. Focus on areas where natural light combines with artificial lighting and take various readings at different times of the day for accuracy.
Adjusting lux levels
If you require more levels of lux, you can add light sources, change the bulb type, or adjust and reposition the angles of the fixtures.
You could also install dimmers to allow for dynamic changes in lux levels for different activities. In areas where natural lights illuminate the surface, blinds, curtains, or window screens can help manage lux.
The impact of lux on health and well-being
When it comes to the impact of light on our health and well-being, our circadian rhythms are strongly influenced by light exposure. This regulates our sleep-wake cycles, and properly timed exposure to light can help sync these rhythms.
Light exposure has also been shown to increase our mood and reduce symptoms of depression. This is especially beneficial in the winter months when natural light is scarce.
For the elderly, adjusting lux levels can improve vision, reducing the chance of falls and accidents.


text: As a typical multilinear dimensionality reduction (DR) method, tensor locality preserving projection (TLPP) has been successfully applied in many practical problems. However, TLPP depends mainly on preserving its local neighbor graph which often suffers from the following issues: (1) the neighbor graph is constructed with the Euclidean distance which fails to consider the relationships among different coordinates for tensor data; (2) the affinity matrix only focuses on the local structure information of samples while ignoring the existing label information; (3) the projection matrices are nonorthogonal, thus it is difficult to preserve the local manifold structure. To address these problems, a multilinear DR algorithm called optimal neighbor graph-based orthogonal tensor locality preserving projection (OG-OTLPP) is proposed. In OG-OTLPP, an optimal neighbor graph is first built according to tensor distance. Then the affinity matrix of data is defined by utilizing both the label information and the intrinsic local geometric properties of the data. Finally, in order to improve the manifold preserving ability, an efficient and stable scheme is designed to iteratively learn the orthogonal projections. We evaluate the proposed algorithm by applying it to image recognition. The experimental results on five public image databases demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm.

Adding depth to BBQ sauce can take your grilled meats and dishes to a whole new level of flavor. Whether you're a BBQ aficionado or just starting out, understanding how to enhance the taste and richness of your sauce is essential. In this article, we'll explore some techniques and ingredients that can help you achieve that desired depth.
Caramelization is a key process that adds depth to any sauce, including BBQ sauce.
When sugars in the sauce begin to break down and brown, they create complex flavors that enhance the overall taste. To achieve caramelization, you can:
- Use brown sugar: Replace some or all of the white sugar in your recipe with brown sugar. The molasses content in brown sugar contributes to caramelization.
- Sauté onions: Sautéing onions before adding them to your sauce not only adds depth but also imparts a sweet and savory flavor.
2. Smoky Elements
A smoky flavor is an integral part of any good BBQ sauce.
It creates an authentic taste that reminds us of grilling outdoors over an open flame. Here are some ways to incorporate smoky elements into your sauce:
- Add liquid smoke: Liquid smoke is a concentrated form of smoke flavor that can be easily added to your sauce in small amounts for an instant smoky boost.
- Grill or smoke ingredients: Grill or smoke some of the ingredients used in your sauce before blending them together. This method infuses the flavors with natural smokiness.
3. Spice it up!
A bit of spiciness can add depth and complexity to your BBQ sauce.
It can elevate the flavor profile and provide a pleasant heat. Consider these options:
- Add chili powder or flakes: Incorporate chili powder or flakes to give your sauce a kick. Adjust the amount according to your preference for heat.
- Experiment with different peppers: Try using jalapenos, chipotle peppers, or other hot peppers to bring unique flavors and levels of spiciness to your sauce.
4. Vinegar Tang
A tangy element is crucial in balancing the sweetness and richness of BBQ sauce.
Vinegar not only adds acidity but also helps to deepen the overall flavor. Here's how you can incorporate vinegar:
- Use apple cider vinegar: Apple cider vinegar is a popular choice for BBQ sauces as it provides a fruity tang that pairs well with smoky flavors.
- Mix different types of vinegar: Experiment with combinations of apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, or balsamic vinegar to create a unique tang that complements your sauce.
5. Slow Simmering
The longer you simmer your BBQ sauce, the more time it has to develop depth and complexity.
Slow simmering allows all the flavors to meld together, resulting in a rich and flavorful sauce. Consider these tips:
- Covered cooking: Simmer your sauce covered on low heat for an extended period, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Add liquid gradually: Start with less liquid initially and gradually add more as needed while simmering. This helps concentrate the flavors and create a thicker consistency.
By incorporating these techniques and ingredients, you can add depth to your BBQ sauce and elevate the taste of your grilled dishes. Feel free to experiment with different combinations until you find the perfect balance of flavors for your palate. Happy grilling!

Personas are artificial character based representations of user goals, attitudes, motivations and abilities which enable designers to focus their design efforts on key, targeted users. The success of personas in design is due to their capacity to enable designers to empathize with users and understand user goals. Persona development is rooted in the rigorous collection and analysis of data specifically related to the design project being undertaken. New design projects thus require the development of new personas. Since redevelopment is not always achievable attention has turned towards reuse of personas and the underlying data. This paper reports on ongoing research into the development of reusable personas for use by non-expert, everyday designers. Such designers are regularly faced with small scale but diverse design challenges for which they cannot carry out user research and modelling. They can, however, make use of general, reusable personas developed independently of their current design project.

Approximately twenty-five species of Callistemon grow in Australia
and nearby New Caledonia.
This small evergreen tree grows from about fifteen to thirty feet tall. It has
attractive narrow leaves and white papery bark. New leaves are reddish in
color. It blooms in in spring and summer. Flower spikes are usually white or
cream in color but pink, red and mauve forms are reported. The willow
bottlebrush has some salt tolerance and is appropriate for coastal gardens but
not the beach front. It is a popular garden tree in Australia and is cultivated in California.
Light: full sun
Water: drought tolerant when established
Soil: average soil, wide pH tolerance, no special requirements
This plant was donated to UNF as C. salignus by a nursery owner who found it at Jacksonville Beach. UNF staff is monitoring
the plant to verify its identity and learn its tolerances. The genus Callistemon
is very closely allied to the genus Melaleuca, a few of which are serious pest plants in south Florida. Fortunately, Callistemon species have not shown invasive
tendencies in Florida.

Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics
Forms and Motifs
Stylised floral motifs, religious motifs and human and animal figures decorate most of the 18th century tiles and ceramics in the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation's Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics Collection. The pieces dating from this period have a white or cream coloured paste, white slip and transparent glaze. The motifs are painted underglaze in green, turquoise, yellow, cobalt blue and, from the mid-18th century onwards, manganese purple, the motifs being outlined in black.
A second group of Kütahya ware consisting of dishes, lemon squeezer, bowls, bottles, plates and cups dating from the 18th century are decorated with stylised flowers, leaves and curling tendrils in cobalt blue, with the occasional addition of yellow, green or turquoise. Ewers and jugs of various shapes and sizes are decorated with cypress tree motifs in relief, circular crosshatched medallions and floral scrolls worked in free brushstrokes.
One of the foremost characteristics of the Ottoman Empire was the tolerant attitude and absence of discrimination on grounds of religion, race or culture. Consequently Muslim and Christian potters work together in Kütahya producing objects designed to meet the needs of both communities. Striking examples in this exhibition are pottery and tiles with motifs relating to the Christian liturgy.
Kütahya's contribution to architectural decoration over the centuries is illustrated by tiles dating from various periods in the last section of the exhibition, showing how Kütahya pottery set its mark to Ottoman society at every level, from coffee cups to monumental building decoration.

Cooling Pad for Laptop is an external external device for laptops. It helps in dissipation of heat emitted by the components of the machine due to intense load. For the desktops, there are several options for effective cooling like adding an additional cooling system for the processor, changing the cabinet etc. But for a laptop, the options to use cooling are practically limited. This problem is magnified when the laptop is used for prolonged period or high working load is given and can be solved by using a Cooling Pad for Laptop.
Brief Technical Details about Cooling Pad for Laptop
Since several years, the performance of laptops easily can compete with a Server or a Desktop. But miniaturization of the desktop made sacrifices the laptop cooling because the volume is much smaller to be circulated and the number of fans are lower too, typically when on battery these too switches off in order to save the battery.
In some situations, professionals put their machines to work with 100% CPU load, which can cause a crash of the machine for critical overheating or can hibernate it. Added discomfort to the user is related to the heat that is transmitted through the keyboard and the area surrounding the touchpad and the noise generated by a fan sometimes becomes pathetic.
Types of Cooling Pad for Laptop
Active Cooling Pad for Laptop
Active Cooling Pad for Laptop is a kind of plate like device having approximately the same width and the same depth as the laptop and measures a few centimeters, on which the laptop sits on. Active Cooling Pad for Laptop is most commonly used Cooling Pad for Laptop and are made of plastic or aluminum. Active Cooling Pad for Laptop contains one or more fans (with or without LED light) arranged horizontally and in different formats. Most models have 1, 2 or 3 fans, with an average diameter of 70mm. Some Active Cooling Pad for Laptop provide a single high performance fan, but a very large diameter exceeding 200mm.
The fans of these Cooling Pad for Laptop are powered by one or two ports USB or via an AC adapter. A switch generally allows the fans to stop, sometimes it is a potentiometer adjustment which adapts the fan speed itself. The vast majority of Cooling Pad for Laptop breath fresh air.
For making the heat transfer most effective, an active Cooling Pad for Laptop is littered with vents on the top and vents on the sides (for better air intake outside).
Apart from its primary function is cooling, active can offer other possibilities such as:
- Tilting dock : Active Cooling Pad for Laptop in addition to cooling can be used to tilt a few degrees, providing more comfort in typing and reading. The angle can be adjustable too, depending on the model.
- In addition to the inclination, the device may have a palm rest in the front avoiding the laptop to slip if the inclination is large, which provide more comfort and less fatigue to the user.
- An USB is added often.
- Some Active Cooling Pad for Laptop has Reader memory card for digital cameras, camcorders, MP3 players and other mobile devices.
- Some Active Cooling Pad for Laptop can be folded in half for easy transport and storage.
Passive Cooling Pad for Laptop
Some manufacturers are engaged in the manufacture in production of passive Cooling Pad for Laptop, they does not have fans or moving parts. Although they are uncommon, there are two types:
- The aluminum shelf type Passive Cooling Pad for Laptop: It looks like an active Cooling Pad for Laptop, but the interior is empty and placed in the open air. Fins and heat pipes provide dissipation of heat in contact.
- Cooling Mat or Colling Blanket: This is generally a flexible and has appearance of a quilted fabric. The interior contains sodium sulfate decahydrate, Which is solid when cold and becomes liquid under heat, thus uses the physical and chemical property of it.
These passive Cooling Pad for Laptop devices are effective, but to a lesser extent, they become ineffective during prolonged use of the computer. Advantage lies in the absence of energy consumption, no noise and ease to fold and carry.
Buying a Cooling Pad for Laptop
It is important to note that all Cooling Pad for Laptop are not suitable for all, for the simple reason that the stand is variable in dimensions (width and depth) must be greater than (but not too much) or equal to the laptop. Too small Cooling Pad for Laptop can limit the effectiveness of cooling.

mmmmm not really.
$is a standard privilege user
#is root. No passwords or
The reason you often see a
$sign in an example is to show you which user you need to be in order for the script / command to work.
Example 1: Q0h313th@pico-2019-shelll1:~$
The dollar sign in example 1 indicates you're running your commands as a standard user and need elevated permissions for certain commands. When you use
sudoit is because you do not have root privileges. You use
sudoto temporarily elevate your privileges and then enter the accounts password. if your account looked like:
Example 2: root@pico-2019-shelll1:~#
[notice the pound (often referred to as a hashtag in mainstream media now) verses the $ dollar sign] In example 2 you are now running as root. A command which previously needed
sudofollowed by your accounts password scan now be entered without
sudoand it will run. This is obviously very dangerous, which is why the $ user and the need of
sudowith a password following was set up.

Use a prop to help you deliver your message
How do you make an abstract concept real and meaningful to your audience? It helps to first relate the concept to something specific and familiar that your audience understands. Here's how one presenter used a prop to do just that.
This presenter is an agronomist who often does presentations on soil and sustainability. When explaining wind erosion, he passes out dimes to everyone in the audience. A dime is 1/36th of an inch thick. He explains that if an acre of land loses soil equivalent to the height of a dime it would be losing 5 tons of soil per acre.
After the audience has had a moment to digest what this means, he tells them that if we lose soil beyond the thickness of that dime, it will take us over 400 years to regenerate. He then points out the obvious: we cannot afford to lose that much soil - and that is what we call sustainability.
