SCR Catalyst Testing
SCR Catalyst Testing in progressSCR catalyst testing is a required first step in devising an effective catalyst management strategy. Pilot testing and audits of SCR catalyst activity though laboratory analysis of catalyst samples can provide insight into methods for extending catalyst life.
Our in-house laboratories perform SCR catalyst testing and analysis to determine catalyst deactivation rates and provide corrective measures for system optimization.
How CORMETECH Measures SCR Catalytic Activity And Potential
Analysis objective
SCR Catalyst Activity Test Determine the catalyst activity under specific plant or standard conditions through the use of representative-size catalyst samples. Metrics include the catalyst SO2/SO3 conversion rate, pressure drop, initial activity (K0) and actual activity (K).
Physical Properties Test Evaluate physical properties of the catalyst such as its surface area (BET - Brunauer-Emmett-Teller Test) and porosity (or pore volume).
Chemical Composition Test Chemical Composition Test: Evaluate the impact of coal and ash properties on the catalyst and its performance by measuring the catalyst's chemical composition using quantitative and Semi-quantitative X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy analysis:
 - The XRF-Quantitative analysis is primarily used for manufacturing control and finished product quality assurance. This analysis ensures that manufacturing specifications of the elemental composition for the catalytic metals are met. Carefully-prepared sets of analytical standards, composed of the metals in the actual matrix to be analyzed, are used to set the calibration for these measurements.
 - XRF-Semi-quantitative analysis measures approximately 40 other elements to detect changes in surface and bulk chemical composition as the catalyst is exposed to flue gas.
Our testing program includes collection and compilation of field performance data, such as NOx levels, removal efficiency, ammonia-in-ash levels, operational data, and the like. CORMETECH also takes samples of SCR catalyst removed from the field and tests them in its laboratory to assess the catalytic potential against initial design requirements. These tests are done at either standard conditions (single-layer; MR=1), or at actual field conditions (multi-layer; field MR), and often at both conditions to ensure accurate evaluation of the test results. These tests, along with available fuel impact tests (FIELD GUIDE™), provide users current data to assess SCR catalyst system performance. This approach gives users added operational flexibility by analyzing a wide range of catalyst management "what-if" scenarios.
CORMETECH's testing equipment is state-of-the-art and methods are fully conforming to the SCR industry's best practices and VGB guidelines.


Researchers In China Used Live Pigs As Crash Test Dummies In Horrific Simulations
Content Advisory
Pigs are highly intelligent and sentient animals that feel pain, just like we do. They are vocal and social animals that love to cuddle. Sadly, most are not treated kindly and seen only as food or a test subject.
Researchers at China's Research Institute for Traffic Medicine used young pigs, 70-80 days old, in a horrific car crash simulation. According to the study, they were using the pigs to represent six-year-old children.
"The animals were denied food and water for (24) hours before the tests," reports Daily Mail. 15 pigs were strapped into the seats using one of three different restraint methods. The seats were mounted to sleds and then slammed into a wall at 30 mph.
"The restraint methods were divided into three groups: Loading A, two parallel belts restraining chest and abdomen; Loading B, one diagonal belt and a lap belt; Loading C, double diagonal belts. Each subject experienced one test at an impact speed of 30 or 50 km/h, with a belt tension force sensor to determine the forces on chest, abdomen or diagonal belt," stated the study.
Seven pigs were killed instantly from the impact and the others suffered for hours from multiple injuries. "The detected injuries were abrasion, contusion, laceration, bleeding and fracture."
Animal activist, Anikett, tweeted disturbing images from the simulation causing public outrage. One image showed a pig being flung forward during the crash simulation. Anikett wrote, "See their faces…💔😭😭😭".

Thousands of people responded and expressed their anger over the barbaric act. "Despicable, so very cruel and so very wrong!! 😡 The poor pigs. 💔😢," posted an outraged person.
Zachary Toliver from PETA said, "Despite the existence of sophisticated animal-free models, experimenters continue to fasten abused, frightened animals into car seats and crash them into walls until their bodies are bloody, bruised, and mangled."
He went on to say, "Using sentient animals in car-crash tests is cruel, archaic, and unjustifiable."

There is a national shortage of nurses and doctors trained to conduct sexual assault forensic exams. NBC News mapped where they are provided in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. and how each structures its programs, using the best available data for each state. Providers are shown either by their location or what counties they cover. In some cases, multiple providers serve the same county. Read the full story: After a sexual assault, where can you get a medical and forensic exam?
After the story published, NBC News asked the International Association of Forensic Nurses, the organization with the largest listserv of providers, to put a call out for any missing programs. Forensic nurses around the country responded, and NBC News was able to add 93 additional programs to the more than 1,500-program database in Jan. 2021.
How NBC News did it
Reporters contacted every statewide coalition against sexual assault, state agencies, law enforcement offices, university training programs and dozens of program coordinators and individual examiners in an effort to understand the availability of sexual assault forensic exams around the country, first in December 2019, then in June 2020.
That availability varies widely state to state, as does the structure of training programs, laws and government oversight. Most states did not have regularly updated databases tracking where SANEs work and what facilities have programs. NBC News consulted advocates and administrators in states with minimal tracking on how best to map what is known about the state's resources. A summary of each state's services and any additional notes on how data was collected appears with each state.

Where do Babies Come From
Where do Babies Come From
Somebody has rightly said," Only a mother can tell from where the baby came from"? and even the father can't tell it surely without her approval. Though since childhood many children keep on asking their parents from where did they come, but never get a satisfactory answer and thus here we have come with all information for you regarding this topic that even your mother won't tell.
Where do Babies Come From
Where do Babies Come From
1. Talking About The Myth:-
Talking about the myth prevailing in the society, Whenever you may have asked your mother in childhood, from where did you come? She might have given you the answers like a fairy came and gave you to them or like an angel from heaven came on the earth to give you to your parents, but let me tell you that it is bullshit and they took you as a kid.
If you would have asked it from your teacher, she must have answered you that we all are the offsprings of Adam and Eve, who were the first couple on the earth and we all are their offsprings, this can be taken as half true but you still don't get a proof as you had not seen it happening. The exact clue you get about babies being born is when you are taken to some hospital and that too is just the half of knowledge.
2. Talking About The Scientific Approach:-
If I try to give you the full knowledge with a scientific approach, I will simply say that there are two hormones in humans, one is the testosterone and other is the estrogen, both the hormones are there in males as well as females but estrogen is in females in excess and testosterone is in males in excess.
After completing the state of puberty, when a girl starts getting periods and becomes mature enough to produce babies, she goes on a sexual intercourse with her hubby and he injects some of his sperm in her vagina.
These sperms travel through their passage making a way and reach the female ova to fertilize the eggs. The eggs get fertilized and the girl enters the state of pregnancy. She bears nine months of pain in the hospital and then gives birth to the baby.
3. What Is Done In The Hospitals:-
When you were a kid and your parents started taking you to hospitals first of all, you must have though that this is the place where babies are manufactured but that was just a half, truth as I told earlier. The manufacturing process has been done earlier by the couple and the hospital just brings about the delivery making the use of machines in a proper way and hands over the baby to its parents.
4. The Baby Can Even Be A Surrogate Baby:-
Surrogacy can be understood as an approach in which an agreement is made for pregnancy that makes the transfer of embryo from one mother to the other using the concept of vitro fertilization and is impregnated naturally or artificially. This is done in case if the mother is not able to give birth to a child due to prolonged sickness or due to any other reason and thus a baby can even be surrogate as well.

August 2015
Minitrucks are sold as off-road vehicles for farms and construction sites and are far smaller than conventional small trucks sold for on-the-road use. These vehicles go by many names, including Japanese minitruck, Kei truck, microtruck, and utility transportation vehicle. Minitrucks have the capacity to reach top speeds of 55 mph or more, but many are sold with devices that limit their speed to 25 mph.
Federal safety standards don't apply to minitrucks because they are sold as off-road vehicles, even though they are permitted on public roads in some states. Twenty-one states now allow minitrucks on specific portions of public roads. In Illinois and Missouri, minitrucks are allowed only by local ordinance. Minitrucks must comply with federal safety standards for low-speed vehicles in five states (Illinois, Kansas, Maine, New Hampshire and Tennessee).
The table and map below describe state laws that specifically address the use of minitrucks on public roads. In states without those laws, there may be provisions in other state laws, such as those permitting incidental use of off-road vehicles on public roads, that allow the limited use of minitrucks on public roads.

An Analysis of Texas Waterways
For assistance with accessibility on any TPWD documents, please contact _EMAIL_
A Report on the Physical Characteristics of Rivers, Streams, and Bayous in Texas
Seasonal and Restrictive Waterways of East Texas, Part 1
This section contains an analysis of those sections of rivers, streams, and bayous in East Texas which have been found to contain an insufficient flow of water for recreational use under normal conditions, or for various reasons could not be classified as a major waterway, and would be restricted to seasonal usage. It has been determined that these waterways contain the basic characteristics indigenous to all waterways in the eastern portion of the State. However, their suitability for recreational use and/or scenic attributes have been limited in some manner. It is with the realization that these rivers, streams, and bayous have potential for recreational use on a regional and local basis that this information has been provided.
Armand's Bayou (formerly Middle Bayou) is an excellent example of a scenic natural bayou in East Texas. The mean width of the bayou is about 40 feet; however, it widens into a poorly defined marsh in some sections. Water flow varies and the bayou becomes shallow at times. The bayou is unique in that it represents an unspoiled area of vegetation (including palmettos, oaks, Spanish moss, cattails, and flowering water plants) close to the Houston Metropolitan Area.
Only seasonal recreational use of Austin Bayou is possible because the bayou is narrow and has only a limited flow of water. However, a potentially good 10-mile segment exists in the vicinity of FM 2004. A typical scenic bayou of the coastal plains, Austin Bayou represents an important recreational resource to local residents.
A typical scenic coastal waterway, the 20-mile section of Bastrop Bayou from FM 2004 to FM 523, flows deep and contains sufficient water levels for recreational use at most times. The bayou provides valuable outdoor opportunities to local residents.
Madison and Walker Counties
Bedias Creek, between Madisonville and Huntsville, is a scenic waterway that provides valuable recreation opportunities. The stretch between US 75 and the Trinity River has been identified as being the most desirable stretch to recreationists, especially during periods of high water. Here, the creek is from 20 to 50 feet wide, consisting of long pools and short riffles. One considerable rapid makes a tenfoot drop over a lineal distance of approximately fifty feet and could be hazardous to the unwary. Along the banks, the creek is lined with oak, elm, willow, and pecan. The main channel in the upper reaches (near IH 45) is hard to distinguish during high water periods.
Tyler and Hardin Counties
Beech Creek is a narrow, spring-fed tributary of Village Creek. Beech Creek contains unpolluted, clear, cool water and white sand bars. This waterway has been proposed as one of the connecting corridors in the "String of Pearls" concept for a Big Thicket National Park. The banks of the creek are heavily vegetated and many log and brush jams are found, which result in the creek being difficult to float. However, the whole 23-mile section of Beech Creek from FM 1013 crossing in Tyler County to Village Creek in Hardin County is usable for float trips during periods of above-normal moisture. The lower 4-mile stretch, from a county road crossing off of US 287 and US 69 in Village Mills, (eight miles east of Village Mills), to the junction with Village Creek has been identified as the best stretch for recreational use during normal water conditions.
Big Cypress Creek
Big Cypress Creek is formed in northwestern Tyler County and flows approximately 25 miles southeastward to meet Turkey Creek. Water levels of the Big Cypress vary, but are suitable for recreational use most of the year. Many log jams which result in the creek being difficult to float are encountered. The scenic beauty and primitive nature of Big Cypress Creek is such that it has been proposed as a connecting corridor in the "String of Pearls" concept for a Big Thicket National Park. Here, the best section for recreational use is the 18-mile section from a county road crossing off FM 256 (six miles west of Woodville) to the US 69 and US 287 crossing (1 mile south of Hillister). Two additional reference points on this section are US 190 crossing (six miles west of Woodville) two miles downstream from the crossing off FM 256, and a county road crossing off of FM 256 (five miles southwest of Woodville) five miles downstream.
Big Cow Creek
Big Cow Creek rises in the northwest corner of Newton County and flows southeast approximately 90 miles to meet the Sabine River. The creek derives its water supply from the many spring-fed branches in the area. In the upper reaches, it flows through an area of rolling sandhills, open mixed forests, and scattered pine groves. The lower section flows through a bottomland area composed of beech and other species of hardwood and pine. Water flow is sufficient on most of the lower section for recreational use; however, the best section for recreational use is reportedly from SH 87 crossing (2 miles southeast of Newton) to the Sabine River.
Big Mineral Creek
Big Mineral Creek is located near Lake Texoma on the Hagerman Wildlife Refuge. The creek flows through thick woods and is seldom over fifty feet wide at any given point. Access to the creek is no problem, since the creek flows through the Wildlife refuge. Picnic tables, grills, and restrooms are made available to the public by the refuge. A 1.5 mile section of the creek has been proposed for marking as a canoe trail by the refuge.
Big Pine Creek
Red River County
Big Pine Creek flows through farming and ranching country interspersed with sections of bottomland hardwoods. The creek ranges in width from 30 to 45 feet, with the best section for recreational use beginning at FM 410 and ending at Highway 37 on the Red River, a distance of five miles.
Big Sandy Creek
Polk and Hardin Counties
Big Sandy Creek rises in northern Polk County and flows southeast into Hardin County where it joins Village Creek. Big Sandy's total length is approximately 40 miles. Flowing through the heart of the Big Thicket, this natural creek is recognized as an integral part of a unique ecosystem. The creek is from 10 to 30 feet wide, with heavy vegetation lining the banks. Steep banks exist at road crossings. The waters are clear and shallow, but passable at normal water levels. Numerous log jams are prevalent which result in the creek being difficult to float. However, at higher water levels, the submerged logs became a lesser problem and recreational use is feasible.
Waterway features and distance between each are as follows: FM 942 crossing - 8 miles east of Leggett (creek is very shallow and narrow), US 190 crossing - east of Livingston on the Alabama-Coushatta Indian Reservation (7 miles), FM 1276 crossing - approximately 3 miles south of the Indian Reservation (the water has deepened considerably at this point) (6 miles), County Road - off FM 1276, six miles south of the Reservation (3 miles), FM 1276, crossing - 10 miles southeast of the Reservation (poor access is available) (5 miles), and US 69 & 287 crossing - 8 miles north of Kountze (16 miles). Approximately 2 miles below US 69 & 287, Big Sandy Creek joins Village Creek.
Bois D'Arc Creek
Bois D'Arc Creek, one of the major drainages of the Red River in Texas, maintains an average width of 75 feet from Highway 79 to its intersection with the Red River. This is normally enough water for recreational use of this two-mile stretch; however, the nearest road crossing on the Red River is Highway 281, approximately 40 miles downstream. Most of the time, the water in Bois D'Arc Creek is clear, and fishing is good. Also, good camping areas are available where Bois D'Arc Creek passes through Caddo National Grasslands (administrated by the U.S. Forest Service).
Buffalo Bayou begins in north central Fort Bend County and flows 65 miles southeast into Harris County where it forms a part of the Houston Ship Channel, eventually emptying into Galveston Bay. The bayou is floatable most of the year; however, it is extremely polluted. Buffalo Bayou flows through Houston, and numerous access points are available. The stretch from State Highway 6 to Loop 610 is reportedly the best section for recreational use.
Adequate water levels for recreational use are present in Caney Creek most of the year. The creek flows between a few high bluffs and rocks. A short segment from the Red River up Caney Creek to the low water crossing off FM 1753 and FM 274 is reportedly the most feasible for recreational use.
Catfish Creek is a scenic stream that has retained much of its natural character. The creek varies in width from 15 to 45 feet while meandering through typical East Texas bottomlands. The entire length is feasible for recreational use; however, overhanging willow and submerged logs often create unfavorable conditions, especially in dry seasons. The stretch from FM 321 to US 84 where Catfish Creek crosses the Trinity River is the best section for recreational use. Camping facilities are available at a number of unimproved, public campgrounds on the Gus Engeling Wildlife Management Area.

The Beheaded
From Dead Cells Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search
Aren't you the headless fellow that's been getting around?
The Beheaded, also known as The Prisoner or the Fallen One[1], is the protagonist of Dead Cells. It appears to be a mysterious shadowy, gas-like substance, with a glowing crystal inside. The Beheaded prefers to possess headless bodies instead of moving around without one.
Lore[edit | edit source]
Hardly anything is known about the origin of the Beheaded — the Beheaded itself seems unaware of how it came to be.[2] However, it appears to be known by the Prisoners (who seem to fear it) and a few others. The Beheaded hunts down the King, hoping that killing him will bring some kind of change to the world. The Spider calls the Beheaded an anomaly, and mentions that some "she" was looking for it.[1] The exact identity of this mysterious entity that was pursuing the Beheaded is unknown, although it is quite possibly the Time Keeper, who seems to have a strong distaste for the Beheaded.
Abilities[edit | edit source]
 - The Beheaded can possess dead bodies, until said body becomes so damaged to the extent it becomes unusable.
 - Possessing a body is not instant. The Beheaded seemingly needs to "boot up" its body in order to use it efficiently.
 - With the use of the Homunculus Rune, the Beheaded can launch its "head" from the body while not losing control of the original.
 - Even without a body, the Beheaded retains the ability to move around, though it does not prefer doing so.
 - The Beheaded seems to be immortal. No matter where it is killed, even in the Forgotten Sepulcher's darkness, it always seems to survive and come back.
 - The Beheaded seems immune to the Malaise, but the bodies it possesses are not.
Personality[edit | edit source]
While the Beheaded is unable to speak, it still has quite the personality. The Beheaded likes to make sarcastic remarks and jokes about the situations it finds itself in. It seems to have quite the mean streak, tending to kick bodies around, as well as pestering people. However, this does not mean it is completely empty of remorse and empathy. The Beheaded seems upset by the sight of the cruel orders from the King,[3] grim at the sight of a guard killed by the effects of the Malaise,[4] is seen telling a dead prisoner to "rest in peace",[5] and lacking any kind of humor when finding a hanged woman.[6] Its emotions are symbolized by the color of its textbox.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
 - The Beheaded can somehow consume food even though it does not have anywhere to consume them.
 - According to The Heart of Dead Cells, the green mass of the Beheaded is a homunculus.
 - The Beheaded seems to have no issue possessing both male and female bodies, given some of the Outfits.

Main Article Content
In translating hyperboles, the effect of exaggerating something from the source text when translated literally into the target text can cause a strange meaning and less acceptable because the terms are not in accordance with the rules of the target language. This study aimed to analyze the translation strategies used by the translator in translating type of hyperboles and its translation quality in The Shrunken Head Novel. The descriptive qualitative research approach is used as a research design. The results of the study showed that there are two types of hyperboles found in this novel, namely overstatement of numbers and quantity and impossible description. Then, there are three strategies that used by translator to translated types of hyperbole in this novel, namely the sense of the word may be translated non-figuratively, retaining the word in the original but to add the sense of the word and substituting a figurative expression from SL to TL. The analysis on translation quality showed that 212 data of hyperboles (88%) considered as accurate, 207 data (86%) belongs to acceptable and 164 data (68%) are considered as high readability.

Honduras: the challenges of identifying the victims of the Comayagua prison fire
In the wake of the fire that broke out at Comayagua prison in Honduras on 14 February, in which more than 360 people died, the ICRC has been supporting the national authorities' efforts to identify the victims using forensics and to offer psychological support to their families. In this interview, Alejandra Jiménez, the ICRC's forensic adviser in Mexico, describes the challenges and achievements of her assignment in Honduras.
What is the humanitarian situation one month on from the Comayagua fire?
Because there were so many victims, many of whose remains are unrecognizable, the identification process is very complicated and lengthy. For the families waiting for the bodies of their loved ones to be released so they can honour them and say their goodbyes, the wait is extremely distressing. The main humanitarian consequence today is the psychological impact on relatives who are having to wait to begin the mourning process.
What kind of support has the ICRC provided?
In the immediate aftermath, the ICRC donated essential items to deal with the remains of those killed in the fire, including body bags, surgical instruments, cameras and FTA paper for genetic identification. However, the ICRC focused mainly on providing technical advice to the Honduran government.
Two ICRC psychologists provided psychosocial support for relatives and for those responding to the disaster. Three forensic experts offered their assistance and made recommendations about what practices to adopt at the different stages of the response, from recovering the bodies to handing over and disposing of the remains. The ICRC was not directly involved in dealing with the remains, but it did offer guidance to the authorities on processing information about the victims, preserving the bodies and putting in place procedures in the forensic units.
As in many post-disaster situations, what was lacking was a suitable information-management system. The ICRC therefore donated a database that it has developed to organize, manage and consult all the information collected during the identification process. It also provided training in the use of this database.
How was psychological support organized and what was the ICRC's role?
The main challenge in these situations is communicating clearly and transparently with the families of the victims. If the authorities remain silent and fail to communicate with the families, this creates a psychological barrier, as though they are being cut off from their loved ones and the whole process.
This feeling of being kept in the dark is extremely distressing. In the case of Honduras, the families were afraid that their loved ones would be buried in a mass grave or that, without international help, the bodies would not be returned to them.
The ICRC advised both the government and forensic experts on establishing clear channels of communication with the families to explain what they could expect from the process, how long it might take, its limitations, and the complexities of identifying remains. The ICRC also stressed the importance of explaining forensic methods to the press, to make them aware of the tireless, rigorous work being carried out and to explain how information was being processed, thereby reassuring the families.
What are the main challenges today?
We have to adopt a shortand long-term approach. We need to maintain our support for, and dialogue with, the families whose loved ones have still not been identified. It is vital that all the information collected during the identification of the remains be entered into the database provided by the ICRC. A full analysis of this data then needs to be made.
The ICRC needs to rise to the expectations surrounding its role in Honduras, which will in turn pave the way for its involvement in addressing the country's humanitarian problems. The government has asked the ICRC to assess its current forensic capabilities and its forensic services nationwide in order to make practical recommendations.
Violence is rife in Honduras. Many bodies are still awaiting identification and, as a result, many families are anxious for news. In these circumstances, the ICRC is keen to cooperate with the authorities and to drive forward forensic development with a view to providing humanitarian assistance.

The Knights Templar have origins in the Middle Ages as protectors of Christian pilgrims on their way to Jerusalem. Many legends have grown up around this mysterious group, including a connection to the Holy Grail. In the late 18th Century the Freemasons adopted some Knights Templar rites and symbols (some believe there is a connection between the two groups). This explains why Knights Templar symbols found in cemeteries relate to the Freemasons. The symbol here shows a Maltese cross surrounding a cross inside a crown.
The gravestone below shows three Freemason related symbols, from left to right: Freemason, Knights Templar, Shriners.

Treebot Learns to Autonomously Climb Trees
This is Treebot. As you might expect, Treebot was designed to do one thing: climb trees. It is by no means the first robot able to do this, but its arboreal predecessors (RiSE and Modsnake and accidentally PackBot are just a few) weren't autonomous and didn't have the skills necessary to negotiate the complex network of branches that you tend to find on trees worth climbing.
The design of Treebot is fairly unique: it uses a set of flexible linear actuators connecting two gripping claws to allow it to move around like an inchworm. While the back gripper holds on, the front gripper releases and the body extends forward, allowing the robot to literally feel around for a good place to grip.
Keeping to the inchworm theme, the robot doesn't use much in the way of fancy sensors. Instead, it's all tactile. You can tell the robot which direction you'd like it to go and how far, and the robot will grope its way to its destination, adaptively navigating from trunk to branches.
At the moment, Treebot is more or less blind. This isn't necessarily a problem, but it could get where it wants to go much faster if it's able to tell which branches have the highest potential to allow it to efficiently climb higher up, so researchers are working on ways to help Treebot optimize its climbing path.
TreeBot was designed by Tin Lun Lam and Yangsheng Xu from The Chinese University of Hong Kong, and their research was presented at ICRA last week in a paper entitled "Treebot: Autonomous Tree Climbing by Tactile Sensing."

virtualspecies is a freely available package for R designed to generate virtual species distributions, a procedure increasingly used in ecology to improve species distribution models. This package combines the existing methodological approaches with the objective of generating virtual species distributions with increased ecological realism. The package includes 1) generating the probability of occurrence of a virtual species from a spatial set of environmental conditions (i.e. environmental suitability), with two different approaches; 2) converting the environmental suitability into presence-absence with a probabilistic approach; 3) introducing dispersal limitations in the realised virtual species distributions and 4) sampling occurrences with different biases in the sampling procedure. The package was designed to be extremely flexible, to allow users to simulate their own defined species-environment relationships, as well as to provide a fine control over every simulation parameter. The package also includes a function to generate random virtual species distributions. We provide a simple example in this paper showing how increasing ecological realism of the virtual species impacts the predictive performance of species distribution models. We expect that this new package will be valuable to researchers willing to test techniques and protocols of species distribution models as well as various biogeographical hypotheses.

Men's ski goggles Arnette
Men's ski goggles are an essential part of ski equipment. They prevent the penetration of dirt into the eyes, protect against harmful UV rays that we are exposed to on a slope far more intrusively than usual because we are closer to the sun and they also generally improve visibility, because when selecting the illuminating glasses, they lighten vision in poor conditions of visibility, while dark lenses eliminate bright sun rays. In both cases, however, they eliminate the negative effects and improve vision. Some goggles are equipped with ventilation holes, anti-fog layer, anti scratch protection and other features. Choose from our models from the world's leading manufacturers of ski equipment.

text: Airborne Wind Energy (AWE) refers to systems capable of harvesting energy from wind by flying crosswind patterns with a tethered aircraft. Accurate models are crucial for tuning and validation of flight controllers. Due to the non-conventional structure of the airborne component, an intensive flight test campaign must be set where maneuvers are performed for parameter estimation purposes. In this paper, we optimize maneuvers for the longitudinal dynamics of a rigid wing AWE pumping system by solving a model-based experimental design problem that aims to obtain more accurate parameter estimates and reduce the flight test time. We consider a trim reference condition of the aircraft and constraints are enforced in order to prevent flight envelope violation. Finally, the optimal solution is implemented in the Flight Control Computer (FCC) of the prototype developed by Ampyx Power B.V. and validated under realistic flight conditions.

Who doesn't like biting into a sweet fleshy piece of sweet pineapple? But the crown, the spikes, and the stiff leaves often act as a deterrent.
Animals that eat pineapples:
Cutting and chopping a pineapple can prove to be quite cumbersome. I know it is for me, which is why I usually opt for the tinned version.
But it came as a surprise to me when I visited a pineapple plantation recently, and my friend told me that this tropical fruit is something that many animals love.
She takes extraordinary measures to protect her crop and ensure that the animals don't reach the mature fruits.
It would be wrong to assume that the spikes on the fruit that can hurt you don't deter animals like raccoons and opossums from destroying a harvest.
However, the rough leaves and the spikes aren't enough to prevent the animals from munching on the pineapples.
List of animals that eat pineapples
Most birds, especially those that survive on seed and plant-based diets, can be given pineapples. Even in the wild such birds are known to enjoy pineapples.
Farmers who grow pineapples often mention protecting their harvest from bird attacks, especially when the fruits ripen.
Parrots amongst birds love to eat pineapples. If you have a pet parrot, you can consider including pineapple in its daily diet.
However, you must consult a veterinarian to understand the consumption quantity of pineapples to be given to your parrot.
Birds kept in captivity need to be fed food that will increase their energy levels and it's a delicious snack that can be included along with their daily diet.
Pineapples also contain essential minerals that can help in the absorption of vitamins and proteins. Therefore, it can help your parrot stay strong and healthy.
Raccoons are another creature that loves pineapples. Fresh pineapples are one of the favorite treats for these creatures.
In the wild, raccoons can smell ripe pineapples, and the rough outer skin or the spiky leaves don't deter the critters from consuming the fruit.
Raccoons are incredibly agile, and they can easily remove the pineapple growing on the plant's crown.
But in plantations, the fruits have to be protected from raccoon attacks. One of the reasons why pineapples are one of the favorite fruits of raccoons is the rarity of the fruit in the wild.
Pineapples are delicious and incredibly nutritious fruits but they aren't readily available in all forested regions.
Being a scavenger, you'll generally find raccoons near garbage dumps and compost mounds.
But these creatures have a strong sense of smell. Farmers tend to keep raccoons out of plantations by fencing the region.
If you have purchased pineapples and disposed of pieces of the fruit and the skin in the garbage, you will find raccoons scavenging around the pile as the strong smell of the fruit attracts them.
Rats like squirrels can wreak havoc on a pineapple plantation. The sweet smell of the fruit primarily attracts them.
Rats have incredibly sharp teeth, and they can easily bite through the hard outer skin of a pineapple.
The spikes in the leaves aren't enough to deter rats from reaching the fruit either since they can easily maneuver around it.
However, if you have a pet rat and want to give pineapple to it, you must consult with your veterinarian about the quantity of pineapple you can give your pet rat.
Pineapple has a significantly higher portion of sugar than the food you would typically give to your rat.
Hence, it's necessary to ensure that you control the amount of pineapple you give your pet so that it doesn't have any health issues.
In the wild, pineapples are hard to find, and it takes nearly 13 to 18 months for a pineapple to ripen completely. Thus, rats don't get access to pineapples quickly in the wild.
But if you're thinking of making pineapple a part of the regular diet of your pet rat, it's crucial to control the amount of fruit that you serve your pet while following the advice of your local vet.
Pigs can eat pineapples, and the ones bred for their meat are often given a significantly higher amount of fruit to improve the meat quality.
Pigs need to eat pineapples to improve their digestive health. Pineapples contain enzymes necessary to keep their gut healthy while building a robust immune system.
Additionally, pineapples are full of minerals and proteins required to build strong bones and muscles.
When you feed pigs a healthy amount of pineapples regularly, you help the animal develop the ability to fend off different diseases.
Along with that, pigs find pineapple an extremely palatable food which makes them interested in consuming the food given to them.
By combining pineapples with the food given to them, you can help them increase the amount of food they consume.
Squirrels belong to the rodent family and are easily distinguished by their extended front teeth.
If you observe the food habit of squirrels, you'll find that these creatures are attracted to ripe fruits and fresh vegetables.
Hence, it's a wrong notion that squirrels only eat nuts. Nuts are preferred foods, but they love to sink their teeth into fleshy fruits like pineapples.
Hence, farmers who grow pineapples commercially have to be careful about these critters attacking their harvest of ripe pineapples.
This fruit is rich in minerals, antioxidants, and vitamins which makes it beneficial for squirrels to consume in small quantities.
The sharp teeth can easily tear the leathery outer skin of a pineapple, and the creature can easily access the fleshy part of the fruit inside.
If you have a pet squirrel, you'll find that your veterinarian will sometimes advise you to give your pet small bite-size pieces of pineapples.
You should give your pet fresh ones, as canned pineapples have a significant amount of sugar that can be harmful to them.
Monkeys are primates, primarily herbivores, which means that they're dependent entirely on a plant-based diet to fulfill their energy requirements.
Monkeys eat all types of fruits and pineapples, being rich in minerals, vitamins, and proteins is one that falls among their favorite fruits.
Monkeys can easily break open the top of the pineapple to extract the fruit inside. If you see a monkey eating pineapple, you'll find that it can quickly devour it while avoiding the spiky skin of the fruit.
The hard outer surface or the spiky leaves don't deter the animal from enjoying this fleshy fruit.
If you visit a zoo or an animal reserve for monkeys and other similar primates, you'll find that they're given pineapples along with other fruits.
This is because pineapples are rich in antioxidants, which help build the immune system of the creatures.
When monkeys are bred in captivity, it becomes necessary to provide them with nutritious food that will help them to fight various diseases.
This makes it necessary to give the creatures a steady diet of pineapples.
Along with that, the juicy and fleshy taste of the fruit makes it an excellent addition to the other foods given to the monkeys.
Opossums are marsupials, and usually, they don't mean any harm when they pay a visit to your garden. On the contrary, they can be beneficial as they eat slugs, snails, and other insects.
But if you're planning to grow pineapples in your garden, then you need to be careful.
Opossums are omnivores and have an excellent appetite and a strong sense of smell. They can identify the scent of ripe and sweet fruits from a distance.
Moreover, the spiky leaves or the rough outer skin of the fruit won't deter the animal from eating it either.
Instead, the opossum is one such creature that can break open the pineapple with the help of its forelimbs and extract the inner fleshy part of the fruit with its sharp teeth.
They don't eat the skin and the other pineapple pieces; instead, they'll only eat the yellow and ripe part of the fruit.
Opossums have a digestive system similar to any other mammal, and hence, they need to consume food that provides them with the necessary roughage to have a healthy gut.
Pineapple and all the essential vitamins and minerals provide the creature with the roughage that it needs to have a healthy digestive system.
Deer are opportunistic feeders but even though pineapples are a sweet and juicy fruit, they won't eat it because of the outer spiky layer.
But if the pineapple breaks open, the creature will eat its soft and sweet flesh.
However, deer will occasionally eat pineapples because this isn't a fruit that they regularly consume.
But you might find deer loitering around compost heaps in your garden at night looking for pineapple scraps.
We actually discussed this topic in an entire article which you can read more about here – do deer eat pineapple?
What animals eat pineapple?
The animals that eat pineapples are parrots, raccoons, bearded dragons, rats, pigs, squirrels, monkeys, opossums, deer, rabbits, sugar gliders, ants, chickens, and guinea pigs.


The Supreme Court of Canada is hearing an appeal brought by a Toronto-area man, Pardeep Singh Chouhan, who was convicted of murder and is arguing changes to the way juries are selected was unconstitutional.
Ottawa tried to make juries more diverse. Critics say its changes had the opposite effect
Changes by the federal government to jury selection — brought in to diversify juries and help combat systemic racism in the courts — will actually have the opposite effect, argue a number of associations representing racialized lawyers.
The changes were introduced in the wake of the Gerald Stanley trial in Saskatchewan in 2018. Stanley, a white man, was acquitted by a jury of second-degree murder in the shooting death of 22-year-old Indigenous man Colten Boushie.
Media reports at the time said that the defence was using what were known as "peremptory challenges" to dismiss any potential juror who appeared Indigenous.
Peremptory challenges allowed both Crown and defence lawyers to dismiss a certain number of potential jurors during jury selection without having to give a reason. After the Stanley acquittal, the federal government moved to abolish the challenges.
That change now forms part of an appeal being heard at the Supreme Court of Canada on Wednesday, brought by a Toronto-area man, Pardeep Singh Chouhan, who was convicted of murder and is arguing the removal of peremptory challenges was unconstitutional.
A number of legal groups, including associations representing Black, Asian and Muslim lawyers, have intervened in the case, arguing that the removal of peremptory challenges does not in fact help tackle systemic racism in the courts, and harms a person of colour's right to a fair trial by jury.
They point out that people of colour accused of a crime often used the challenges to help ensure people with perceived biases didn't make it on to the jury that would ultimately decide their fate — in a system where jury pools remain significantly white and Black, Indigenous and people of colour remain overrepresented as accused persons.
Among the intervenors who argue in favour of the ban on the challenges are Toronto-based legal clinic Aboriginal Legal Services, and Debbie Baptiste, Colten Boushie's mother.
The South Asian Bar Association argues in its filing that peremptory challenges were a "crucial tool" for people of colour accused of a crime, allowing them to evaluate whether a potential juror would treat their case fairly.
"Parliament ostensibly eliminated peremptory challenges to increase jury diversity — but the change is fundamentally misguided," the association wrote in its filing.
"At the end of the day, Parliament eliminated the peremptory challenge because a white person — who already starts with every relative advantage in the criminal justice system — abused the power in order to eliminate a minority group from his jury.
"In response to that abuse, Parliament stripped every accused person of colour of his or her peremptory challenges."
The ban on peremptory challenges was introduced in spring 2018 as part of a massive piece of federal legislation known as Bill C-75, the Liberal government's attempt at revamping the justice system.
Former justice minister Jody Wilson-Rayboud said at the time that the bill "aims to bring about a wide-reaching cultural shift in the criminal justice system and how it is administered throughout the country."
But critics have argued that the removal of peremptory challenges was short-sighted, and that regulating their use would have been far better than getting rid of them completely.
"Parliament failed to give proper consideration to the impact of the abolition of peremptory challenges on Black accused, the result of which is the exacerbation of the very issue that it claimed to fix: systemic racism," says the Canadian Association of Black Lawyers in its filing.
"Historically, the primary rationale underlying the use of peremptory challenges was that it allowed the accused person to participate in the selection of his or her trier of fact, thereby adding a sense of legitimacy to the jury."
Debbie Baptiste, Colten Boushie's mother, points out that Indigenous people were systematically excluded from juries for much of Canada's history, and that peremptory challenges are a form of race-based discrimination.
Her filing states that five visibly Indigenous people were challenged by the defence during jury selection at the Stanley trial.
"From the perspective of Indigenous people who have been historically targeted and victimized, the existence of peremptory challenges as mechanisms for discrimination does not support the perception of a fair trial or an impartial jury," says the filing.
Aboriginal Legal Services also echoed the argument in their filing that the challenges have "unquestionably excluded" Indigenous people from serving on juries.
"In 2020, it is impossible to see the retention of these challenges as anything other than antithetical to every notion of fairness," says their filing.
Federal justice minister David Lametti's office said in a statement to the Star that his government's changes to jury selection addressed "long-standing and well-documented concerns that racialized Canadians were being unfairly excluded by the previous process."
Under the new rules, a party can still challenge a potential juror for bias, but it's up to the trial judge to decide whether the person should be dismissed — after hearing the potential juror's self-assessment as to whether they can judge the case fairly.
"Such challenges overlook how bias is difficult to detect by both outsiders (judges) and those who are biased (jurors)," says the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association in its filing.
Toronto lawyer Dirk Derstine, who is representing Chouhan in the appeal before the Supreme Court, said people who have been the subject of discrimination can often tell pretty quickly if someone is biased against them — but it can be difficult to persuade a judge, who is often white.
"We say (the challenge for cause procedure) is inadequate in order to ferret out those who would hold prejudicial views against people," Derstine told the Star.
Jury selection at Chouhan's Toronto murder trial was carried out under the new rules, without the use of peremptory challenges. The Ontario Court of Appeal upheld the ruling that banning the challenges was constitutional, a decision which will be before the Supreme Court next week.
At the same time, the Court of Appeal ruled on when the changes to peremptory challenges should apply. The court found that the right to use peremptory challenges still applied to cases where the accused person had opted for a trial by jury before Sept. 19, 2019, the date the jury selection changes came into effect.
That decision could lead to dozens of homicide and sexual assault cases in Ontario, including Chouhan's, having to be retried because they used the new jury selection method. The Crown is asking the Supreme Court to overturn the Court of Appeal's ruling on this issue.
A coalition made up of the Canadian Muslim Lawyers Association and the Federation of Asian Canadian Lawyers proposes in its filing that the government could regulate the use of peremptory challenges, rather than scrap them entirely.
The coalition suggests an approach where the Crown or defence could raise with the judge if they believe the other side is using their challenges for "discriminatory reasons or that there has been a pattern of using the peremptory challenge to eliminate racialized jurors."
And if after hearing from the other side the judge finds that the challenge to a juror was motivated by a discriminatory purpose, the juror should be seated, the coalition proposes.
"I think by eliminating peremptory challenges you're going to risk having all-white juries in trials involving Indigenous accused and racialized accused, and there's going to be nothing that defence counsel can do about it," one of the coalition's lawyers, Nader Hasan, told the Star.

How to Saw on a Jigsaw
Jigsaw is one of the most common hand-held electric tools. They can process a wide variety of materials: wood, plastic, ceramics, metal, etc. However, the main material that most jigsaw masters work with is plywood.
Using a narrow file, this tool allows you to carry out not only a direct cut, but also perform intricate patterns. And in this article we will consider some tips from specialists working with a jigsaw.
An example of drawings for sawing with a jigsaw.
Features of working with a jigsaw
An electric jigsaw for sawing plywood in appearance is a very simple tool and almost every beginner will be able to make an even cut with it. However, if we talk about beautiful curly patterns, then it is necessary not only to have certain skills, but also to choose the right file.
The main nuances
Carrying out electric sawing from plywood with your own hands, you should know the following:
- The main condition for obtaining an even cut is the correct choice of the file for the tool. In order for the cut to be on the front side without burrs, it is necessary to use a thin file, the teeth of which are directed downward.
- The workpiece needs to be firmly fixed, otherwise a smooth cut will not work
- A few words about the nail files. For jigsaws a large number of saws are produced, which differ from each other, both in thickness and design features.Depending on this, they distinguish:
- Saw or side scam. The teeth are bent to the right and left in turn, as with hand saws. In this way, files with relatively large teeth are made. They are used for quick direct cutting. Propyl is obtained with rough edges, so it should be treated with sandpaper.
- Canvas with undercut. In this case, the teeth do not have a divorce at all. Such files allow you to make very thin and clean cuts. Naturally, the speed of this drops. If such a file has a small divorce, then the work will go slightly faster. However, in this case, the main emphasis is not on speed, but on the quality of the cut.
- Wave-like divorce. In order for very small and narrow files to be able to make wider cuts, the cutting edge of the blade is made wavy. For the most part, such files are used when working with metal, but are often used when working with plywood to produce narrow and clean cuts in a fairly short time.
Types of files.
Sawing patterns with a jigsaw
Like a regular hand jigsaw, this power tool allows you to cut various curly patterns on the material. Most often, sketches are taken by masters from magazines. (see also the article Plywood do-it-yourself rocking chair: drawings to help)
How to Saw on a Jigsaw
Advice!You can use patterns from magazines for embroidery, knitting or paper cutting.
In order to transfer the drawing to plywood, do the following:
- We translate the pattern onto thick paper.
- Using a sharp clerical knife or scalpel, we cut out the stencil.
- We apply the stencil to the surface of the material, circling it with a simple pencil.
- Now you can start cutting out the pattern.
Drawing a picture on a material through a stencil.
In contrast to the implementation of direct cut, sawing from plywood with a jigsaw has its own characteristics.
This instruction will help you understand all the intricacies of the work:
- For cutting along a curve, use a file with a narrow blade.
- To cut a circle in plywood, you need to use a special nozzle. A circular cutter. The cutter is fixed in the center of the circle, after which you can begin to work.
- If you need to choose grooves in a wooden blank, then a rasp can be used instead of a saw. It is also used to strip uneven cuts.
- In order to achieve perfectly accurate and even cuts, use the parallel stop. It must be attached to the jigsaw with screws.On the "ski" can be installed a special guide line, thanks to which the cut is parallel to the straight edge. Before you begin, you must make sure that the ruler is firmly fixed and aligned with the canvas. Otherwise, the movement of the file will be incorrect, and it may break, or "burn" the processed material.
Use of a parallel emphasis.
- If you need to make a straight long cut, you can use the auxiliary guide. In this case, the jigsaw will move along the firmly fixed strap.
- With the help of this tool it is possible to carry out cuts at an angle of up to 45 degrees. The angle of inclination is set on a scale.
The implementation of an inclined cut.
- Sawing a hole. Very often, cutting ornaments, the master needs to make a hole in the plywood.There are two options for this:
- The first option is the simplest. You need to drill a hole with a drill, after which you introduce a file into it and continue to cut out the necessary pattern.
- The second option involves the use of mortise or plunger sawing technology. Do not drill the start hole. To do this, put the tool on the front edge of the "ski", without touching the workpiece with the canvas.
Next, turn on the engine and gradually lower the fork, smoothly introducing the saw into the material until the saw takes a vertical position, and the "ski" does not come into contact with the workpiece.
Advice!Cutting should always start at the waste of the material.The saw should not enter the plywood too close to the cutting line so as not to spoil the material.
- In the event that you need to cut a board of large thickness and the file length is not enough for this. You need to use a file with a pointed end. First, we saw it with a workpiece on one side, then we turn it and saw it on the other.
- To cut a curly part, you can fix the tool from the bottom of the desktop. In the case of a uniform and smooth feeding of the workpiece, you can get a cut with clean, even edges.

From this article, you learned how to saw plywood with a jigsaw. Here we examined the basic principles of working with this tool, which will help you in the implementation of various construction and design solutions.
Having understood the features of the jigsaw, you will soon realize how simple and convenient the appliance is. And although its price is higher than a conventional jigsaw, you will not regret that you purchased such a tool. (see also the article Cutting with a jigsaw from plywood. Success drawings)

- The teaching podiums each have a control panel installed on the top for easy access to many of the equipment features. The control panel options will vary depending on the equipment package in that room. Power for each piece of equipment is not available from the control panel. The only standard power button from the control panel will be for the ceiling-mounted projector.
- Press button on control marked "Display Power" to turn on the power for the ceiling
power for the ceiling projector.
Note: the image from the projector will not show up right away. Please be patient! If you press the button again the projector will go into a "sleep" mode and consequently will require several minutes before you can attempt to power it on again.
Computer, VCR, DVD
- Power for the PC can be turned on using the power button on the front of the PC. You
can power on any of the additional equipment such as VCR, DVD, or document camera
using the power button on the front of the equipment.
Note: Please leave all equipment powered on-except for the projector.
- All the PC's in the podiums have some standard software such as the Internet browser, Microsoft Internet Explorer and the Microsoft Office Suite with Word, PowerPoint, etc. If you teach regularly in a classroom and need to request that computer services install other software, please open a help ticket to make that request.
- The control panel allows you to switch between devices for viewing through the ceiling
mounted projector. For instance if the last person in the room used the VCR last,
a blue light on the panel will indicate that the VCR is chosen for viewing through
the projector. You can press the button for any other device when you want the image
from that device to be projected.
Note: The projectors are scheduled to time-out after 3 hours. To avoid having to restart the projector press the button on the podium that controls the device you are using before 3 hours have passed.
- To turn off the projector, you must press and hold the "Display Power" button until the projector powers down. It contains this safety feature so that users do not accidentally turn off the projector by having books or papers on top of the podium surface.
Wall Talker White Board Surface
Classrooms are equipped with a surface used as a white board and projection screen. The following list contains important tips for using the surface properly to maintain its quality.
- Don't use Permanent markers or Flip Chart Markers, use ONLY dry erase markers: EXPO markers
- Clean with the eraser provided by the Wall Talker company (there should be one in every room; regular white board erasers are too abrasive).
- It there is not an eraser, use a paper towel or damp paper towel.
Note: the Wall Talker is a wallpaper surface with a Teflon coating and can be damaged by anything abrasive.
Each piece of equipment is wired through the audio amplifier so that you will have sound available from any of the devices. There is a volume control knob on the control panel.
An outlet that allows connection of a laptop will be added to the top of the podium. This will allow someone to place a laptop on the surface of the podium and connect it to the ceiling mounted projector.

Cold weather season
mid-June to mid-August
Wurrgeng is the 'cold weather' time; humidity is low, daytime temperatures are around 30°C and night-time temperatures are around 17°C. Most creeks stop flowing and the floodplains quickly dry out. Burning continues, extinguished by the dew at night. By day, birds of prey patrol the fire lines as insects and small animals try to escape the flames. Magpie geese, fat and heavy after weeks of abundant food, and a myriad of other waterbirds crowd the shrinking billabongs.

Also known as Burns Supper, Burns Night is a Scottish holiday celebrated on January 25th.
A celebration of the life of Scottish poet and lyricists Robert Burns (born in Ayrshire in 1759), the night sees various traditions honoured. Family and friends come together for a meal, drinks and an evening of Burns' poetry.
The celebrations can be traced back to a supper held by friends of Robert Burns on July 21st, 1801 on the fifth anniversary of his death. The Burns Club was founded that year and suppers arranged for January 19th, which was then believed to be his birthday. Since then, records have been discovered that show his birthday is actually the 25th. We have celebrated his life annually on this date ever since.
Burns Supper is a meal made up Cullen Skink, a traditional Scottish soup, followed by haggis with neeps (turnips) and tatties (mashed potatoes). During the supper 'Selkirk Grace' is recited, as well as the 'Address to a Haggis' when the haggis is brought out. Desserts often include oatmeal shortbread, whiskey caramels and marinated raspberries.
Don't forget the whiskey!
After eating, a speaker will make a toast to the "Immortal Memory of Robert Burns", giving a speech before choosing a Burns song or poem to perform.
Male speakers can also recite humorous speeches "Address to the Lassies" and females reply with "Reply to the Laddies" for a bit of light-hearted fun after a filling meal.
The end of the night is rounded up by a recital of Burns' most famous work, 'Auld Lang Syne'.
Gather round with friends and family for a fun filled night and toast to one of Scotland's most beloved historical figures.
