AquaLife Complete Water Conditioner- 4 oz - Treats 240 Gallons
-Replaces slime coat
-Removes chlorine, ammonia, and chloramines
-Detoxifies nitrite and heavy metals
-Adds essential electrolytes
Prior to AquaLife Complete, no single water conditioner did the best job of relieving stress, removing chlorine, removing ammonia, and could be used for emergency ammonia or nitrite removal. AquaLife Complete has changed all of that. Use the ultimate water conditioner available for your pets. Make no compromises.
AquaLife Complete is the most advanced all-in-one water conditioner and stress reliever on the market. Specifically formulated for the hobbyist with a serious commitment to keeping livestock thriving and healthy. AquaLife Complete is concentrated to deliver twice the results of other conditioners while reducing the chance of illnesses associated with stress.
DIRECTIONS: To fully condition water for (1) new aquariums or ponds, (2) before, after or during water additions, or (3) before adding new fish, amphibians, or plants, add 1 teaspoon (~5mL) to AquaLife Complete Water Conditioner per ten (10) gallons of water. For larger applications use the following dose: 1 fl oz per 60 gallons of water. For nitrite removal, dose as directed, then test water for nitrite. If nitrite persists, add a second dose and test again.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Perform regular water changes to keep the alkalinity (acid-neutralizing capacity) and pH stable. Use AquaLife Complete Water Conditioner as needed to eliminate and control ammonia at the regular dosage rate for each 1mg/L, or fraction thereof, of measured total ammonia or for each 0.85mg/L of measured ammonia-nitrogen. Use a salicylate (indophenol) type total ammonia test kit for testing. For dissolved-oxygen (DO) testing, use either a DO meter or an indigocarmine test. It may be used at the standard dose to stop or destroy permanganate treatments.
CONTRAINDICATIONS: Do not use with permanganate-based or chlorite based treatments. Nessler's total ammonia test will give false high (or off scale) readings. Winkler dissolved oxygen test will give false, low (or zero) readings.
INGREDIENTS: electrolytes, buffers and a proprietary polymer formula in aqueous solution.

You should always trade with a reputable broker or exchange so you have the best tools to get you the best returns, which will help you save money, invest in your future and enjoy the good life, which is really important for anyone. It also helps you get the right advice about stocks!
Now, let’s go back to the topic of buying stocks, and the right broker to buy from!
What is A Good Stock Broker To Buy From?
How can we buy stocks? To buy a stock we need to make some sort of investment, and not all financial instruments like investment funds, bonds or stocks make this easy or easy for us.
What can a person invest in if they don’t know what a stock is? Well, a stock is basically a piece of paper that has the words “Stock” and “Index” written in the front and has a price tag on it, in the price.
These are the most popular stocks and ETFs to buy from when you’re a novice:
Cerberus Research Capital Inc. CFRA: A U.S. limited liability company that has been founded since 1995, operates as an investment dealer, managed mutual fund company, futures/options trading exchange and investment advisory organization (US-based). We believe Cerberus is the best and one of the easiest options to get in at this time. (Source: Wikipedia)
FTSE/HERE: This is a global company that was founded in 1946, and is headquartered in London. They are based on a globalized share listing.
GMC Inc. GCM: The biggest agricultural and agricultural services company in the world, based in France. They are a leading agribusiness company in the European Union. (Source: Wikipedia)
Oasis Financial Corp. OASUS: This financial services organization started in 1993 as an affiliate of an early private equity firm, as you can see from the image below.

venerdì 31 marzo 2017
Accademia Italiana Salerno visited the University of Illinois Chicago
On Wednesday, March 29th, Francesca Romana Memoli, Director and Founder of Accademia Italiana in Salerno presented a seminar on the treasures of the Campania region in Southern Italy at the University of Illinois Chicago.
Dr. Memoli led discussions about the history and culture of the charming southern region. The presentation featured captivating videos and photographs of the beautiful sites of Campania: Pompeii, Positano, Salerno, Amalfi, Naples, and Paestum, focusing on Salerno city. Her presentation highlighted the rich history of Salerno, historic monuments in the region, and a typical Italian cuisine. Through language classes and cultural excursions, she explained how studying at Accademia Italiana and living in Salerno would be an ideal place for Study Abroad Programs while living an authentic Italian life.
The presentation ended with a ‘‘how much do you know about Campania?’’ and a 100% scholarship for a two-week Italian course in Salerno was given awarded to the winner, Cristina UIC student of prof. Chiara Fabbian.
Accademia Italiana and Dr. Memoli would like to thank the students of the University of Illinois Chicago who attended the presentation, as well as all the Italian Studies Department at UIC for hosting the event. A special thank goes to the Head of Italian Department prof. Chiara Fabbian, who promoted this seminar in cooperation with Italian instructor prof. Maria Iusco.

So, Free Will is in prep for release right now, with the typos and other nit-picky details being worked over, layout being done, etc. It’s a big step forward in the Antithesis Progression, and there are a lot of you out there who have been waiting patiently for the series to continue.
Some of you will get a sneak peak. You see, this is a big book. It ate up more pages, and more time, than I expected by an order of magnitude, and I’m eager to see it find a good home on the shelves and in the e-readers of all of you, including those of you who have drifted away in the meantime, intending to come back when the series continued.
To let people know Antithesis is back, we’re going to need publicity. Publicity means you! Some of you out there enjoy blogging, posting opinion pieces and reviews, etc., and you are the ones I need. Starting today, the first hundred of you that email me with the subject line “Free Will Ebook” will receive a free, pre-copyedits ebook version of Free Will (and a corrected version once the proofs are done).
In return for receiving this advance review copy, you promise to blog the book when you’ve finished reading it and, once the book is released to the general public in the next week or two, to post a copy or extract of your blog review in two of the following: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords, Goodreads, Kobo, Sony ebook store, Kobo, iBookstore. Those of you who feel enthusiastic enough about the book to post the review in all those places will be entered into a drawing. The four prizes in that drawing will be:
Spread the word!
Also, watch this space. There will be more announcements in the coming days about casting calls, a new Death Threats contest, and other goodies.

The first Working Group meeting of ATMO-ACCESS Task 6.4 took place on June, 16, 2022. The aim of this meeting was to co-design the forth-coming trans-national access to the research facilities of ATMO-ACCESS by public authorities.
Twenty three people attended the meeting, with the public sector being represented by 2 people from the Greek local and regional authorities. The main focus of the discussion were the needs that this pilot should address, spanning from source apportionment, urban hot-spots or episodes of air pollution, online and real-time information (incl. alarm systems) and sensor calibration. The representatives from the public authorities agreed that the portable instrumentation of ATMO-ACCESS facilities, as well as the virtual access to real-time data products are appealing for the cities under their responsibility.
This was the first of a series of meetings of this group, to be enriched with more organizations from the public sector and ultimately decide for an attractive and competitive TNA call early next year.

A lottery is a game in which people buy numbered tickets with the chance of winning a prize. It is similar to gambling but is governed by rules and regulations, unlike casino games.
A lottery can be used to raise money or give away prizes for a specific event. It has also been used to raise money for government projects, such as the construction of roads and museums.
Lotteries are a form of gambling, and they can be legal or illegal in different countries. They are a popular form of entertainment in some places, but they can be dangerous and addictive.
If you win a lottery, you’ll have to pay taxes on the amount you won. You may owe state income tax or sales tax on the money you receive. In addition, you may have to pay taxes on any interest that accrued while you owned the winning ticket.
The odds of winning a lottery are very small. The chance of winning a large sum of money is 1 in 18.9 million.
Buying a lottery ticket is an expensive way to gamble your money, and you should avoid it as much as possible. It is better to build up a savings account or a retirement fund, as these are the only ways you can be sure that your hard-earned money will last for many years.
In the United States, many state governments use lotteries to raise money. Several of the states that formed during the Revolutionary War had to resort to lottery sales to finance their projects, including a battery of guns for Philadelphia and rebuilding Faneuil Hall in Boston.
A lottery can also be used to select students for public school placements, or it can be used to award college scholarships. A lottery system is usually used in these cases because there are a limited number of spots available, and it is a method of ensuring that each student has a fair chance of being selected for a position.
Some people believe that life is a lottery, because everything depends on luck. They say things like “It’s a lottery when it comes to finding true love” or “Life is a lottery, isn’t it?”
Lotteries have always been used as a way to raise money for government projects. They are simple to organize and are widely popular.
The odds of winning a prize depend on the amount of money that is spent on tickets, as well as the size of the jackpot or prize pool. A smaller jackpot or prize pool may be less appealing to bettors, and so ticket sales will decrease. On the other hand, a large jackpot or prize pool will increase ticket sales, because a larger number of people will be interested in winning it.
Most states require that a percentage of the money that is sold in lottery tickets be paid out to the winners. This reduces the amount that is available for other purposes, such as education, but it also makes lottery sales more transparent, as consumers will know exactly what tax rate they are paying.

Beauty and the Beast is the adaptation of a story by Madame de Villeneuve. Published anonymously in 1740 as La Jeune Américaine et les contes marins, it paints a portrait of Belle, a joyful and touching young girl who falls in love with the Beast, a cursed creature in search of love and redemption. In 1760, a condensed children’s version was published. It was from this version that Jean Cocteau and then Walt Disney drew their famous adaptations. Overshadowed, the original version by Madame de Villeneuve has never been adapted for the screen… until now!

This is the gorgeous Cholla fireplace design. This corner design will add that extra something to your space without sacrificing too much room. With a total width of 11'-6" and depth of 65", this is a lot of fireplace in a small footprint. The arched firebox is 40" wide with matching arched 20" wide storage voids set on a 45 degree angle. The seating extends the entire width of the structure and the shelves over the voids are approximately 40" tall. You can build the structure with the angled chimney or with upper shelves as pictured. The total height of the fireplace is 8'-2". Add the perfect veneer to this fireplace to make it a one of a kind. This design requires some block cutting for the angles.

We are a little obsessed with burlap and canvas around here, with rolls of it coming and going all the time, as we convert them into so many different items. We can go all natural and we love our color, either way you had us at big fabric roll. Each roll can pack on 25-100 yards of gorgeous fabric that long to become something oh so special. As we hoist them onto the table ready to go under the knife, they are ready to be transformed into a tote bag, apron, makeup bags, zipper pockets, eyeglass cases, purses, pillow, table runner, flower, scrapbook, banner, chef’s hat, stocking, tree skirt…..the possibilities are endless.
We love that each item is design and stitched right here in our Springdale, Arkansas warehouse. Somedays we spend making thousands of one item and others we spend making many different items that go in many different directions. We love all the project big and small. One our recent favorite projects was making burlap pennants for the Joe Dirt 2 movie party. They were sewn, quickly shipped off to an artist to be painted and shipping to LA for the party. We don’t mind being behind the scenes, under foot or covering what we need to cover.
We thought it would be fun to share with you some of the transformations our blank items have made when put in the hands of amazing artists, bloggers, crafters, mixed media artists, monogramers, party planners, brides, screen printers, makers….and the list goes on and on.
1. Artist and Blogger, Lucy at Craftberry Bush painted this amazing butterfly tote bag. Stop by craftberrybush to see show she does it. Our totes come in many shapes and sizes, long handles and short ones, fat and skinny, gussets and without, canvas and burlap or mixed and any other combination you can think of. You can paint directly on them or paint these special butterflies and add them to your tote. We offer a wide range of blank burlap and canvas totes that are ready to look this cool.
2. Lifestyle Blogger, Jennie Larsen created this Gold and Red Christmas Entry where our blank holiday stockings came in handy, she added a few simple dots of paint to the burlap stockings and they are a perfect fit. Our blank stockings come in a range of sizes, shapes and fabric all with fun, rustic exposed edges giving them a fresh, trendy look. Monogram the cuffs, stencil the stocking or screen print one for each member of the family.
3. Crafter: What was once a simple blank apron, JoAnne Doshier hand-crafted into an amazing apron filled with fun textures, shapes, stitches, paint, fringe and color. Blank aprons come in all shapes and sizes from toddler to adult and filled with pockets or without in canvas and denim. This apron was embellished with Canvas Corp’s Farmhouse Printed Fabric Panel and lots of amazing avocado and red accents.
4. Mixed Media Artist – Nathalie Kalbach created this amazing pillow on our Square Blank Pillows – they come in a range of sizes 12×12, 14×14, 18×18 and 20×20. These blank pillow forms are ready be be decorated your way and then you can slip in a pillow form, slip it over an existing pillow or fill with Poly-fil. The 10 oz canvas is a great quality to stand up to all that a mixed media artist has to give from gesso and paints to papers, salt treatments and lots of embellishments. You can also decoupage your art onto the the canvas. We do have to say we don’t recommend washing a beautiful pillow like this once decorated.
5. Monogrammer: Michelle of Miss Lala’s added this special monogram to a simple child’s apron and wow it looks like a million bucks.

We offer canvas in 4 different weights all in natural canvas color, we also offer a variety of colors in cotton and poly/cotton fabrics. When it comes to burlap we carry a few different grades as we call it, one that is much more natural in look and feel and another that is tighter weave that also comes in a ray of colors. While our fabric selection is pretty focused we are always open to trying something new.
A good week at the warehouse leaves many empty tubes where fabric once roamed. We don’t through much away, even the tiniest fabric prices are transported into scrap packs and these cardboard rolls are recycled, there may be a bit of burlap dust on the floor, but that is about it.
Many of the items in this feature our part of our everyday line of blank products and we also offer custom blank items with reasonable minimums. We can help you find blanks to place your art upon or help you design something new that becomes your art or you can add your art to. If you are looking for a turnkey supplier, we can screen print your art onto any of our blank items. For inquiries email us today at [email protected] or give us a call at 866.376.9961.

Thumbs up for Little Black Goes to the Circus by Walter Farley. Children’s.
My first love among Walter Farley’s books is the one in the Black Stallion series that has the extraterrestrials. (And there’s your quiz of the day: which one is it?) But his illustrated book Little Black is dang cute, and when I found the sequel, of course I had to read it.
If you enjoyed this post, please share it!

What a wonder Father's Day spent outside with family and good food. I even got a nap in that lasted just long enough to take the photo. My little guy woke up and wanted to wiggle out of his car seat immediately.
Even though it is technically the last day of the 21DSD, I still got to enjoy the day to the fullest. It also happened to be my husband's first Father's Day and I was all about gifting him a fun experience.
We went to an Off the Grid Picnic in the Presidio and nibbled on some tasty food cart meals. I tried to stick to options offering meats, veggies and safe starches. The chicken skewers and white rice I selected might not have been the purest and had some added sugar in the flavoring, but I find it okay eating a limited amount once in a while with no adverse effects. Hopefully I won't breakout on my face too much; I really enjoyed having clean skin on the detox and why I'd want to steer clear of overeating certain culprits like cow dairy, sugary chocolate, Paleo treats and some seasonal fruit.
Hope you got to do something fun on Father's Day! And if you'd like to win some clean beef jerky fuel, enter the Jerky Chews giveaway on my Facebook business page Sophia's Survival Food.
My full review of the 21-day sugar detox is coming next....

I learned a lot about who are the most helpful and nicest people when I was a missionary. The lesson applies directly to your job search. Who should you ask for help?
Newly arrived as a missionary in Murcia, Spain I got to start teaching some of the richest people in the region. It was not due to me. My partner had been there for months and had started teaching one company president. He introduced us to other hard charging business leaders. Every single one of them was very nice to us. They listened politely and either sent us off with a referral or heartfelt thanks for talking with them.
That was my first experience dealing with truly rich and powerful people. I found out that the people who can do the most for you are generally the nicest too. They help you even when they get nothing out of it. In this case they thought we were wrong but appreciated our enthusiasm, so they gave us what assistance they could. I liked it so much I looked for ways to call on business leaders in other cities.
In Seville, Spain there is a small group of condominiums that are pretty nice. Many of them have a maid or a butler in a uniform straight out of the movies. They have some money, but are not rich. They appear well to do. They don’t lead or own companies. They are the ones who think appearances and posturing will get them promotions. Help someone lower than them? What a laughable thought! What’s in it for them?
The people living there are the rudest people I met in Spain. And you know what? They aren’t going anywhere. The only place you get to the top by being cut-throat, mean, rude and despicable is in the movies. They got to where they were because many people helped them, but they had forgotten to help others. They were stuck, living lives of ostentatious desperation.
That small enclave was the only place I met people like that in Spain. My conclusion may well have been off base about those particular people. However, I have noticed that the most helpful people rise to the top. So guess where I start my networking? Where do I go for help? To the top. That’s where the nicest people are.
Something To Do Today
Are you afraid to network with the people who can and will help you the most?
Tomorrow: I really saw a crab do this!
Later: How to network at the top.

Month: May 2016
Posted by Retail Attractions Blog on May 24, 2016 in Blog | No Comments
Successful retail deals require an abundant supply of patience. Even under optimal conditions, it can still take a long time for all the pieces to fall into place. Closing a retail deal that works for all parties often requires months of planning and negotiation, and it can take years for a community to realize their full retail development vision.
Months of Planning
Planning for retail development is a vital step, and it’s one that takes time. While trying to speed things up is tempting, you really don’t want to cut corners in the stage where you and the retailers work out a mutually beneficial partnership.
Take Enid, Oklahoma as an example. This is one of the towns where Retail Attractions is currently working. Talking about the retail deals going on in Enid, Rickey says, “We’re about to go to the International Council of Shopping Centers Convention in May … and we will be talking, out there, about 2017 retail deals. That’s the thing, the retailers that you’re seeing come … were deals that we’ve been working on for 24 to 36 months prior to you actually seeing them coming to town.”
The more complex a deal is, the longer it will take to work out. If you’re working with a consultant like Retail Attractions, we can be working on the deals for months before you have to sign contracts with the retailers. Without a consultant, your community will have to work all this out on your own.
Years in Development
Even with optimal conditions, it can still take several years after a deal is signed for the retail development to become a reality. When Rickey was working in Owasso, Oklahoma shortly after 2002, new retail was flooding the city and everything was perfect for retail growth. Even so, it took ten years to fully retail the market.
Rickey says, “One of the most frustrating parts of my work is the job of educating city councilors about how long it takes. When you see a new retail deal under construction somewhere, you can know without a doubt that, even with an accelerated effort and timeline, some poor soul has been working hard to make that deal a reality for at least a couple of years in most cases.”
Deadlines and expectations for project development need to remain realistic. Working with a qualified company like Retail Attractions helps move things along as smoothly as possible, but it’s still not going to happen overnight.
Speeding Things Up
While you don’t have much control over how quickly your retail partners are able to move forward with development, you can at least make sure nothing on your end slows the process down. You’re already on our blog, and that’s a great place to get started. Here, you can learn about ways to market your community, get information about retail development incentives, and find other information you need to know about holding up the public side of a retail development partnership.
Retail Attractions can also help you work through the planning process and development stage of retail growth in your city. We’ll be there to consult with you every step of the way. With our experience and contacts in the retail development industry, we already have a head-start in moving your community through a successful retail development project. Contact us today to talk with Rickey about your community project or get more details about how we can help you.

Vision is the starting point for all successful projects. When you’re developing a vision that will carry your community into a public/private partnership to support retail development and economic growth, it’s essential that the vision is shared. Investors don’t want to partner with a community that can’t agree on their goals.
If your community can’t generate a cohesive vision before heading into public/private partnerships, then there’s a good chance your retail development goals are doomed to failure. Recognizing this gives you an opportunity to impress potential partners by creating a shared vision from the very beginning of your city’s plans for growth and expansion.
Ideally, your vision will involve everyone who has a stake in the positive outcome of this potential partnership. This includes residents, property owners, homeowners associations, media outlets, colleges, hospitals, churches, and other stakeholders.
Make sure you don’t leave out people and groups that are initially opposed to the community’s proposed vision. Building consensus and addressing concerns is a key step in the process of vision-building if that vision is to be shared by the entire community.
Get the media on your side early in the vision-building process. An alliance with local media outlets makes it easier to get your message out and cultivate transparency during the planning stages. Media will continue to play a key role in publicizing the vision and keeping it fresh in people’s minds after your community has decided on a final version of your vision plan.
City visions often include long-term plans that can span several local political administrations. This means that establishing a collective vision and creating community buy-in for the project is essential for sustaining the vision long-term.
As your community develops a shared vision, remember to keep the practical side of things in mind. A vision by itself isn’t enough – you also need a plan for implementing your vision. This is where you can really start focusing on what your community hopes to get out of a public/private partnership and what you can offer your investors.
Use public hearings, news releases, visioning exercises and other tools to keep stakeholder and area residents in the loop about the vision you’re developing. Make sure you specify the scale of projects included in the vision and let people know exactly what’s going to happen. A shared vision will start to collapse if people feel blindsided or misinformed.
Retail Attractions can assist with generating an honest assessment of your city’s strengths and weaknesses. We know what investors are looking for and can help you with demographic analysis and strategic planning you’ll need to create an implementable vision before entering into a partnership to foster economic development.

well, ok, one use.
That’s more like it! I always thought maids couldn’t actually play snooker, but to use a snooker table as a place to cane them – that’s a proper use of a snooker table!
Indeed P L Richards … though I can think of another use for a helpless maid on a snooker table 🙂

Conventional organic drugs have been used for hundreds of years as therapeutic cures. Moreover, holistic and standard medicines have identical functions in mediating its effects on your body. Alternatively, and also this provides natural drugs the possible to cause dangerous negative effects or even taken in or utilized properly.
Tinctures are merely an alcoholic draw out often made up of various levels of ethanol. Some herbal tinctures tend not to use ethanol as being a solvent-though here is the most often applied solvent. Other chemicals found in tinctures include white vinegar, glycerol, and ether propylene glycol. Herbs are devoting a bottle and drenched in 40Per cent alcoholic drinks that is certainly still left to face for two-3 weeks. This is then shaken at times to improve the power of the perfect solution.
Kratom plant life is used to make tinctures for a variety of functions. Kratom is actually a medical herb gathered from sizeable trees and shrubs in the Rubiaceae loved ones native to Southeast Parts of asia. It had been formally documented with the Dutch colonial botanist who offered its genus title Mitragyna, for your stigmas from the first types resembled the shape of any bishop’s mitre. Kratom foliage are continually simply being lose and changed, when leaf fall is ample throughout the free of moisture year of the season. This is substituted with new expansion that is much more plentiful throughout the wet season. Kratom shrubs increase very best in wet, humid, fertile earth with medium sized to complete exposure to the sun. There are 2 different stresses of Kratom – the white colored vein and red vein Kratom.
The red maeng da kratom plant’s pharmacology is primarily mediated by the alkaloid mitragynine, which may have no psychedelic effects or similarities to this sort of substances. The Kratom is also applied as a sedative, pain great, contra–diarrheal solution, which is utilized to deal with opiate dependence. The comforting results of a Kratom tincture works as a sedative that helps folks overcome deficiency of rest, and is particularly typically placed on individuals ailing from sleeplessness. A tincture of kratom provides a coffee-like stimulant when taken in lower dosage amounts.
A Kratom tincture can also be applied on the other hand to help individuals dealing with opium addiction. It diminishes the cravings of the affected individual and is used any time a affected individual experiences drawback signs or symptoms. Cleansing centres in Nz used this in several apps to deal with and deal with medication dependence.

It is clear from US data [1, 2] that fewer people who test positive for the live virus in the US are dying today than was the case early in the pandemic. Can we credit improved Covid-19 treatment? Is this due to the fact that we are testing more people or perhaps that those who are getting tested are less ill than was the case early in the pandemic? Is this related to the sex, race and ethnicity of those infected? Are viral mutations responsible? Is this the result of people of different ages taking different precautions against getting infected? While there are numerous possible reasons for the fact that fewer people who test positive are dying, in this study we investigate only the impact of the ages of the people infected with the virus on the Covid-19 specific mortality rate.
More specifically, this study documents a methodology for calculating the local mortality rate for people infected with Covid-19. The local mortality rate is based on the ages of the people testing positive and dying. We first estimate the mortality rate for age groups spanning 1 decade, then apply those estimates to US regions to yield the estimated local mortality rate vs. time and place since the start of the pandemic.
Estimating Age Dependent Mortality and Local Mortality Rates
As described in the ‘Model Description’ section of the Covid-19 Model page, daily deaths divided by the mortality rate yields the estimated prevalence () of the virus. Here, the mortality rate is the rate at which people infected with Covid-19 die. Estimates for the mortality rate vary between 0.001 and 0.03 [3, 4, 5] around the world. A pre-release paper based on a study in Geneva, Switzerland estimates that the mortality rate for an infected population of all ages is 0.0064. Somewhat arbitrarily, we adopt 0.006 as the nominal mortality rate. By nominal mortality rate we mean the mortality rate for a given population when people of all ages in that population interact as they did pre-Covid-19.
To estimate the impact of age on the mortality of a population infected with the virus we subdivide the population into age groups spanning 1 decade from age 0 through age 89. In this study we add people aged 90 and above to the 80 to 89 age group, not in any way as a value judgment, rather to simplify calculations and graphs.
Local mortality rate is defined as:
where, through are the fractions of the population in the decadal age groups 0 through 80 who are exposed to the virus for a specific time and place (in our case a US region), and through are the mortality rates for the decadal age groups 0 through 80 independent of time and place.
When considering the local mortality rate imagine a Covid-19 exposed population comprised of age groups in the fractions given by through whose composition varies with time and place (in this case regions of the US). Said another way, at any time and place different age groups are behaving differently relative to Covid-19 exposure and this is manifested in the ages of those testing positive for the live virus.
Continuing, nominal mortality rate, , is defined as:
where, through are the pre-Covid-19 fractions of the population in the decadal age groups 0 through 80 independent of time and place.
Table 1 lists the number of people and fractions of the population () in each decadal age group in the US.
|Age Group||Number of People||Percentage of Population|
|0 to 9||37518750||0.112|
|10 to 19||43211250||0.129|

Table 1. US population by decades of age.
With adequate data through also vary with time and place. Here they are constants.
Again picking on the 80 and above crowd, we rewrite equation (2) as:
To estimate the mortality rate by age group we make a key assumption: the ratio of the mortality rates of any two age groups is proportional to the ratio of the death rates of those same two age groups. Here, the death rates the number of people who die from Covid-19 divided by the number of people who test positive for the live virus. Following is an example equation for one pair of age groups:
where, is the number of deaths for a particular age group through the whole of the pandemic and is the number of confirmed positive tests [8, 9 , 10] in the same age group through the whole of the pandemic.
After calculating we solve algebraically for through .
Note that deaths are reported for the following age groups: under 1, 1 through 4, 5 through 14, 15 through 24, 25 through 34, 35 through 44, 45 through 54, 55 through 64, 65 through 74, 75 through 84, and 85 and over . Positive tests results are reported for the following age groups: 0 to 4, 5 to 17, 18 through 49, 50 through 64, and 65 and over [8, 9]. Where available data crosses decadal boundaries we distribute deaths and positive test results uniformly by year and move them into the appropriate decadal age group. One result of this process is that certain decadal age groups share the same number of deaths and positive test results even though this is certainly not the case. We need more granular, or at least consistent data, to improve the effective mortality rate estimate for any given time and place.
The assumption that the ratio of mortality rates for two age groups is proportional to the ratio of death rates for two age groups implies that people of all ages infected with the virus get tested at the same rate. For example, if 1 in 5 40-year-olds who are infected with Covid-19 get tested and test positive then 1 in 5 people of all other ages infected with the virus get tested and test positive. This assumption is surely not valid across all age groups. Nonetheless, we proceed with the expectation that the resulting age, time, and place-variable effective mortality rates will yield a better estimate of the prevalence of the virus than would a single mortality rate for all ages.
To calculate the local mortality rate vs. time and place all that remains is to calculate fraction of the population in each age group exposed to the virus ( through ) vs. time and place. We use positive test data to determine through [8, 9, 10] as follows:
Note that in the death-based the local mortality rate in combination with daily deaths will determine the estimated prevalence of
Covid-19 (). By using age group dependent positive test data to calculate the fraction of the population in each age group that is infected, we once again make the inaccurate assumption that people of all ages get tested at the same rate. We need better data to improve our estimate of the local mortality rate.
The methodology describe above yields the estimated decadal mortality rates listed in Table 2. These decadal mortality rates are based on all US Covid-19 deaths and confirmed cases through a particular date. We update the decadal mortality rates weekly when new age-based data is published and then use the updated mortality rates in our model as constants vs. time and place. For the last several weeks these mortality rates have changed by at most +/-25% for persons 49 and below and less for persons 50 and above. Note that these estimated mortality rates are anchored to the nominal mortality rate or mortality rate across a all ages in the population. Here the nominal mortality rate is equal to 0.006. The age group specific estimated mortality rates in Table 2 scale linearly with the nominal mortality rate.
|Age Group||Estimated Mortality Rate|
|0 to 9||0.00006|
|10 to 19||0.00010|
|20 to 29||0.00019|
|30 to 39||0.00055|
|40 to 49||0.0014|
|50 to 59||0.0042|
|60 to 69||0.0112|
|70 to 79||0.0262|
|80 and over||0.0496|
Table 2. Estimated mortality rates for the US by decades of age based on deaths data through 20-07-15.
To calculate the local mortality rate first calculate the Covid-19 exposed population fractions by age, time and place. The next 11 graphs present exposed population fractions at the time of writing. Recall that, for better or worse, we equate the exposed population fractions to the fraction of confirmed cases in a particular age group (5). The graphs below are labeled accordingly to make clear the origin of the numbers. The thin lines in the graphs below having constant values versus time represent the nominal fraction of the population for the age group with that same line color. Values prior to the end of March, 2020 are highly suspect due to limited test data.
Finally, the following graph presents the estimated local mortality rate (1) in the US as a function of time and place.
We suggest additional work by posing the following questions:
- How does Covid-19 prevalence actually vary with age?
- Are confirmed cases proportional to Covid-19 prevalence with the same multiplier for all age groups?
- Is there additional data available to improve the estimates presented here?
- How do local mortality rates change if we find a way to account for differing mortality rates vs. sex, race and ethnicity?
- What are the local mortality rates for other countries?
- At the date of writing, schools have reopened in the US with differing Covid-19 mitigation approaches. It seems that children are now exposed to Covid-19 at least as frequently as other age groups. Does the difference between the nominal age group fractions and the fractions of confirmed cases by age group tell us something about the variation in prevalence by age? We strongly suspect that it does and that Covid-19 is even more prevalent () in the US than presented in our Data and Projections. Refer to COVID-19 Projections Using Machine Learning for a different assessment of prevalence.
- How have treatment improvements changed local mortality rates? We have made an attempt to answer this question with publicly available data and we plan to document and share those results at a later date.
Deaths and confirmed cases: Covid-19 death data from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) lags reporting deaths vs. the Center for Systems Science and Engineering (CSSE) at John Hopkins . In addition, the two sets of deaths data differ slightly when compared daily. To deal with the CDC reporting lag we use CDC age dependent deaths data only over a period of time that CDC deaths reasonably match CSSE deaths. At the time of writing that date was 20-07-15 (see Table 2).
Of more consequence is the fact that CDC age dependent positive test results data (aka confirmed cases) are substantially lower than confirmed case data reported by the CSSE. Our methodology for estimating local mortality rates requires age dependent Covid-19 data along with the best available data for the ratios, . Only CDC data is age dependent. To proceed we assumed that CDC data accurately represents the age dependence of deaths and positive test results even if it under reports both. We then scale the CDC deaths and positive tests equally by age group to match the daily age independent CSSE data. Having done so we believe that we are able to generate a reasonable estimate for the ratios, , and thereby reasonable estimates of age dependent and local mortality rates. We would welcome better data and methodologies.
Lab-test data: The CDC reports positive test results by age group for public, commercial, and clinical test labs [8, 9, 10]. Only the commercial lab data is fully subdivided by age and US region. The public labs data reports positive test results by age group for the US as a whole and positive tests by region independent of age. In an effort to get the largest, most representative data set, we distribute the public labs regional positive test data into age group buckets in proportion to the public labs US positive test data. The clinical labs positive test data is reported for the US as a whole and is independent of age. So as not to overlook any positive test data versus time, we distribute clinical labs positive tests between age groups and regions in proportion to the age group and region distribution found in the commercial lab data. Once again, we would welcome better data and methodologies.

On November 19, 1863 President Lincoln addressed a gathering at the site of the most devastating battle in American history to dedicate a Soldiers’ National Cemetery. Just four month prior, 51,000 troops were killed or injured during a three day fight between Union and Confederate forces in and around the small Pennsylvania town of Gettysburg. Tactically, the Union victory checked the rebel offensive (aimed at defeating the Army of the Potomac and forcing the United States government to sue for peace). Strategically, Gettysburg laid bare the Confederate army’s inability to win a war of attrition, and served a crushing blow to the South’s aspirations of independence.
Lincoln spoke for about two minutes. The brevity of the speech stands in stark contrast to the impact and legacy of the words he chose.
As noted by historians, the Gettysburg Address “…is thought by many today to be the most eloquent articulation of the democratic vision ever written.” (history.com)
The Gettysburg Address
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Swedish Realist Painter, 1853-1919
Swedish painter, illustrator and printmaker. He came from a poor family and studied (1866-76) at the Konstakademi in Stockholm, supporting himself throughout this period. From 1871 to 1878 he contributed illustrations to the comic journal Kaspar and the Ny illustrerad tidning. From 1875, for several decades, he was a prolific book illustrator, his most renowned work in this field being his drawings for Föltskärns beröttelser ('The Barber-surgeon's tales'; pubd 1883-4) by Zacharius Topelius, and the Rococo-inspired watercolours for the Samlade skaldeförsök ('Collected attempts at poetry'; pubd 1884) by the 18th-century Swedish author Anna Maria Lenngren.

Tegernsee, Bavaria died April 29, 1750, Mannheim, Palatinate) Bavarian architects and decorators. After studying in Rome (1711 C 13), Cosmas Damian became a prolific fresco painter, and his brother, Egid Quirin, became a sculptor and stuccoist. They developed the effects of dramatic lighting and illusionism originated by Gian Lorenzo Bernini and Andrea Pozzo. Working as a team, they produced magnificent illusionistic decoration in ecclesiastical buildings, combining dramatic lighting and colour. Their works are notable for their profound and dramatic intensity of religious feeling. The brothers became the principal late Baroque exponents of illusionist decoration in religious architecture. Their most notable collaboration is the church of St. John Nepomuk in Munich Peale, Raphaelle
American Painter, 1774-1825
Painter, son of Charles Willson Peale. His mother was Rachel Brewer Peale. He studied painting with his father and assisted him in the museum. Raphaelle began to paint portraits professionally in 1794, but poor patronage in Philadelphia forced him to travel in the South and New England, taking silhouettes with the physiognotrace and painting portraits in oil and miniature. From about 1815 onwards, bouts of alcoholism and gout inhibited his progress. He turned to painting still-lifes, but these sold for small amounts.

If you think that you're completely safe from external threats, think again. Consider this: A government study found that the United States Pentagon's computers are attacked by hackers some 250,000 times a year-and that about 160,000 of those times the attacks are successful. In the successful attacks, data and software are read, stolen, modified, or destroyed. The attacks have cost the government hundreds of millions of dollars.
If the Pentagon can be broken into, so can you. Intranets are vulnerable because of the openness of Internet technology. Look at it this way: There's a door between your intranet and the Internet that lets people inside an intranet go out onto the Internet to get information. That same door can let intruders from the Internet into your intranet.
In addition to unauthorized external access that leads to attacks and theft, there are other security issues to worry about. It's not just people from outside the intranet who can pose security risks. People within the corporation on the intranet can pose problems as well. There is data within a company that requires restricted access, such as personnel records. Malicious mischief is not restricted only to people outside a company.
Computer viruses can be brought in to the intranet with an innocent looking program picked up on the Internet. It can then infect the other computers on the intranet, damaging millions of dollars worth of hardware and software.
There are ways to combat these problems. Any intranet needs to have a comprehensive security system in place. In addition to considering the nature of the threats that require defensive measures, you must evaluate factors such as the size of the intranet and/or company, the value or confidentiality of the data, and how important an uninterrupted, operational intranet is to the company. Technology changes all the time, so the system needs to be constantly monitored and updated.
Security systems are generically referred to as firewalls. Firewalls are hardware/software combinations that allow people from inside an intranet to access data on the Internet, but keep intruders from getting onto the intranet. In fact, firewalls are only one part of a comprehensive intranet security system.
Routers play a major role in firewalls-and are important in any security system. Routers are the technology that lets people on the intranet connect to the Internet, and allows data from the Internet to get to users on the intranet. Because all data going to and from the Internet passes through routers, they're a logical place to put security measures. A variety of security measures can be used in concert with routers. The primary one is called filtering and is accomplished by filtering routers. What filtering routers do is quite simple. They examine every packet coming into and going out of an intranet. Based on a set of rules that a system administrator has established, the router will let some packets in (pass) and will keep other packets out (drop). For example, packets coming from specific users or specific networks can be blocked. Access to entire Internet resources, such as FTP, can be blocked if, for example, a system administrator fears a virus infection if file transfers were allowed.
Proxy servers are another important tool in the fight for intranet security. They allow people on an intranet to get to Internet resources, but the proxy servers act as a kind of go-between. In a system set up with a proxy server, this process can be invisible to the user making the request. The proxy server evaluates the request against an authorization database, and if the request is acceptable, the proxy contacts the Internet. The returning page also passes through the proxy server from the Internet and passes it to the person who requested it. In this way, the proxy server can keep a record of all transactions, and provides a trail to track any kind of attacks. Additionally, the proxy server can be used as a way to keep the intranet shielded from the Internet, because the only IP address going out to the Internet is that of the proxy server, so anyone trying to capture IP addresses for a spoofing attack (pretending to be a legitimate client) can't "see" the originating IP addresses.
Another kind of server important for intranet security is a bastion server. A bastion server is configured especially to resist attacks. Frequently, it is put on its own subnetwork, known as a perimeter network. That way, if the bastion server is attacked and broken into, the intranet is still shielded-the only part compromised is the bastion server.
Encryption and authentication systems are used to prevent unauthorized access to an intranet. Encryption can be used to protect data and passwords. Encryption depends on the use of secret and/or public keys. User names and passwords can be compromised fairly easily, allowing someone to masquerade as a legitimate user. Authentication systems expand on the basic "something you know" security provided by passwords to one that checks that there is "something you have" that is uniquely in your possession, a token of some sort. Encrypted digital signatures are created with keys that also are uniquely in your possession so they can't be altered without such tampering being discovered. Encrypted digital signatures help authenticate the sender of a message and protect against message tampering.
Viruses are a major concern to anyone running an intranet. While the threat of viruses is undoubtedly overblown by the news media, the truth is that viruses are a problem and a potential danger. One way to solve the problem is to use traditional virus scanning and eradication software. This software runs on each user's computer, and allows people to check their computers for viruses, and to kill the virus if at all possible. But doing things that way depends on each user actually running the most up-to-date virus checkers, which doesn't always happen. A better solution is to run virus-checking software specifically designed for intranets. It runs on a server, and as files are sent to the intranet it checks them for viruses. If they're virus-free, it lets them through. If they appear to contain viruses, it blocks them.
There is software that can block users from accessing objectionable sites, such as sites with violent or sexual content. On an intranet a server-based software that does this examines outgoing requests, such as the URL name and words contained in the header of the file. The software has a database of objectionable URLs and objectionable words. When it comes across a site that has an objectionable URL or objectionable word, it won't allow that request to be sent. It will also inform the user that the site is blocked. Since there are so many sites on the Internet, and so many more new ones being created each day, the database can be updated monthly. That way, even new sites will be blocked.
Traffic monitoring is another method to maintain a secure intranet. This is software that sits on a server, and monitors all traffic between the Internet and the intranet. It can also monitor all traffic on the intranet itself. The intranet administrator can set rules and decide what kind of traffic to track. The nature of the traffic is the area of concern when trying to assure yourself that only authorized users and services are involved.
Any intranet is vulnerable to attack by people intent on destruction or on stealing corporate data. The open nature of the Internet and TCP/IP protocols expose a corporation to attack. Intranets require a variety of security measures, including hardware and software combinations that provide control of traffic; encryption and passwords to validate users; and software tools to prevent and cure viruses, block objectionable sites, and monitor traffic.

Farming as well as lumber are actually both sturdy lasting expenditures. Transforming your farming procedure with agroforestry strategies can increase revenues as well as yields while shielding top soil, wildlife habitation, as well as water top quality. Flinn Managing Director Agriculture Industry
Marion Region has a selection of terrain and ground styles with varying levels of agrarian capability. For the areas characterized by both a combination of farming as well as rainforest lands a Farm/Timber designation as well as zone is actually applied. Luke Robert Flinn Web Developer
Acquiring forest is an excellent technique to gain income, transform a portfolio, and secure versus rising cost of living. This type of real property uses an one-of-a-kind return, given that the lumber and property components cherish in value in time. Capitalists can easily also gather the plants on their home to produce periodic cash yields.
In addition, timberland offers capitalists a tax obligation benefit given that financing gains treatment is accessible on harvesting purchases after the first year of possession, and funding interest is actually generally insurance deductible. In addition, lumber expenditures possess low relationships along with bonds and also shares, and a good connection along with inflation.
Forest expenditures could be created by means of direct purchases of forest property, or even forest REITs (real property investment company). The last deal investors a chance to take part in a strongly diversified hardwood as well as farming profile with lesser volatility than the stock exchange.
The secret to excellence in forest trading is actually calculating the goals of the financier. Hardwood could be sold to generate a consistent earnings, or the land might be actually used for relaxation or to cultivate other plants. The best tactic is actually to locate a balance in between assets and also entertainment usage, as each objective can easily add various advantages to the investment collection.
As need for sustainable items continues to raise, forest is actually a popular expenditure possibility that provides appealing long-term returns. Also, timberlands offer measurable climate and also sustainability benefits, as well as a stable hedge versus rising cost of living.
Expanding Your Revenue
Diversifying your income can easily aid your agrarian or lumber operations keep financially rewarding over the long term. When one asset possesses a bad produce, it may additionally help secure your procedure. You may diversify your revenue by planting multiple crops on the same farmland, experimenting with different types of animals or even adding value to the items you make.
As an example, a corn farmer can easily experiment with soybeans or wheat to find just how those plants carry out on their land. In a similar way, a dairy products farmer can easily discover the gelato and also cheese company or look at opening an on-farm dining establishment. Farms that possess wood on their property can utilize zoning to safeguard them coming from non-compatible tasks, like house web sites that conflict with the long-lasting development of the rainforest.
When making a decision to add new profits flows, it’s important to organize ahead. You’ll need to have to hang around assessing the prospective impact of each income source on your company and how much it are going to cost you to deal with the brand new business. Chatting with an accounting professional, an organization instructor or even a lawyer can be useful. It is actually likewise a good tip to network with other producers in the brand new endeavor to find out more regarding the prices as well as challenges. Then, you can easily start to consider your approach. Remember, you might require to decrease your existing revenue flow so as to spend for the new one.
Keeping USA Farmland in the Hands of American Farmers as well as Ranchers
United States field is the base of the farming field. It’s an indispensable aspect of our country’s economic situation as well as a powerful financial investment in the future. Some stress that foreign ownership of U.S. field could possibly threaten the country’s food items safety.
In 2019, the overall stated acreage of foreign-held agriculture land in the United States was 35.2 thousand acres, or 2.7 percent of all confidentially hosted field. The people performs not have a full photo of the international companies buying farmland, as USDA files simply report the amount of land owned through each body, certainly not the individual managers of that land.
Several young and also hopeful planters deal with higher barricades to access in the farming business, specifically when it concerns buying property. This could be aggravated due to the reality that the majority of ranches operate on notable financial debt, which often makes it hard to break even in times of financial dryness. In addition, folks who focus on farms have high costs of stress-related illness.
In action, a number of bills have been actually launched to increase the oversight of field purchases through overseas facilities. Most of these proposals have actually died in board.
Always Keeping USA Woodlands in the Palms of United States Foresters
Woodland farming is an agroforestry process that can aid you expand your income, raise the market value of your property, and use less animals habitat. It includes thinning an existing rainforest to enable the most effective cover trees to continue to generate timber, while supplying best expanding health conditions for understory plants such as berries and also mushrooms. NRCS offers woods farming help systems across the nation.
In the woods of the Northwest, American foresters have actually must experience troubles that were not found in Europe: rainforest fires which destroyed whole areas; a lack of clear eco-friendly past which prevented any kind of clear reading of a stand or even resolution of its response to treatment; an excellent range of environment, height, and ground; the interspersion of private woods amongst government-owned ones; the need for various experiment stations which would certainly operate closely along with the rainforest company in every location of the country; and an extremely multitude of varieties to analyze as well as compare. These realities as well as the authentic investigation approaches utilized by American forestation have created outcomes of fantastic importance for potential medical forestation.
The option of a control unit – a forest which is going to continue to provide a certain quantity of lumber for the support of a settlement deal, mill laborers, and also loggers – provides another problem in these regions. It is necessary to take into consideration, in making a decision the monitoring device, privately had woodland which is actually interspersed with condition woodlands and also can, therefore, be mixed with them.
Timber may be sold to create a constant income, or even the property may be used for entertainment or to cultivate various other plants. Farms that have hardwood on their property can easily use zoning to guard them coming from non-compatible tasks, such as property internet sites that contrast with the long-lasting growth of the woods.
Rainforest farming is actually an agroforestry practice that may assist you transform your earnings, improve the market value of your land, and also use less wildlife environment. It includes thinning an existing woods to permit the ideal canopy trees to carry on to make lumber, while providing excellent growing health conditions for understory crops such as berries as well as mushrooms. NRCS supplies woodland farming help systems all over the nation.

|History and company information||
The forerunner of Omega was founded at La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland in 1848 by 23-year-old Louis Brandt, who assembled key-wound precision pocket watches from parts supplied by local craftsmen. He sold his watches from Italy to Scandinavia by way of England, his chief market. After Louis Brandt's death in 1879, his two sons Louis-Paul and César, troubled by irregular deliveries of questionable quality, abandoned the unsatisfactory assembly workshop system in favour of in-house manufacturing and total production control.
Due to the greater supply of manpower, communications and energy in Biel/Bienne, the enterprise moved into a small factory in January 1880, then bought the entire building in December. Two years later the company moved into a converted spinning-factory in the Gurzelen area of Biel/Bienne, where its headquarters are still situated today.
Their first series-produced calibres, Labrador and Gurzelen, as well as the famous Omega calibre of 1894, would ensure the brand's marketing success.
Louis-Paul and César Brandt both died in 1903, leaving one of Switzerland's largest watch companies — with 240,000 watches produced annually and employing 800 people — in the hands of four young people, the oldest of whom, Paul-Emile Brandt, was not yet 24.
Brandt was the great architect and builder of Omega. His influence would be felt over the next half-century. The economic difficulties brought on by the First World War would lead him to work actively from 1925 toward the union of Omega and Tissot, then to their merger in 1930 into the group SSIH, Geneva.
Under Brandt's leadership and Joseph Reiser's from 1955, the SSIH Group continued to grow and multiply, absorbing or creating some fifty companies, including Lemania, manufacturers of the most famous Omega chronograph movements. By the seventies, SSIH had become Switzerland's number one producer of finished watches and number three in the world..
Weakened by the severe monetary crisis and recession of 1975 to 1980, SSIH was bailed out by the banks in 1981. During this period, Seiko expressed interest in acquiring Omega, but nothing came out of the talks.
Switzerland's other watch making giant Allgemeine Schweizerische Uhrenindustrie AG (ASUAG - supplier of a large range of Swiss movements and watch assemblers) was in economic difficulty. It was the principal manufacturer of Ébauche (unfinished movements) and owner, through their sub-holding company GWC (General Watch Co), of various other Swiss watch brands including Longines, Rado, Certina and Mido.
After drastic financial restructuring, the R&D departments of ASUAG and SSIH merged production operations at the ETA complex in Granges. The two companies completely merged forming ASUAG-SSIH, a holding company, in 1983.
Two years later this holding company was taken over by a group of private investors led by Nicolas Hayek. Renamed SMH, Société de Microélectronique et d'Horlogerie, this new group over the next decade proceded to become one of the top watch producers in the world. In 1998 it became the Swatch Group, which now manufactures Omega and other brands such as Blancpain, Swatch, and Breguet.
Movements and the co-axial escapement
In 1999, with the successful own development of Calibre 2500, Omega made history by introducing the first mass-produced watch incorporating the co-axial escapement — invented by English watchmaker George Daniels. Considered by many to be one of the more significant horological advances since the invention of the lever escapement, the co-axial escapement functions with virtually no lubrication, thereby eliminating one of the shortcomings of the traditional lever escapement. Through using radial friction instead of sliding friction at the impulse surfaces the co-axial escapement significantly reduces friction, theoretically resulting in longer service intervals and greater accuracy over time.
On January 24, 2007 Omega unveiled its new Calibres 8500 and 8501, two co-axial (25,200 bph) movements created exclusively from inception by Omega.
Omega watches in space exploration
All subsequent manned NASA missions also used this handwound wristwatch. NASA started selecting the chronograph in the early 60s and automatic chronograph wristwatches were not available until 1969.
However all the instrument panel clocks and time-keeping mechanisms in the spacecraft on those space missions were Bulova Accutrons with tuning fork movements, because at the time NASA did not know how well a mechanical movement would work in zero gravity.
First watch on the moon
The "Omega Speedmaster Professional Chronograph" was the first watch on the Moon, worn by "Buzz" Aldrin. This watch is now believed lost. Aldrin mentions in his book Return to Earth that when donating several items to the Smithsonian Institution, his Omega was one of the few things that was stolen from his personal effects.
In 2007, to mark the 50th anniversary of the Omega Speedmaster Professional Chronograph, the Omega company unveiled the commemorative Speedmaster Professional Chronograph Moonwatch. The watch had the distinctive features of the first hand-winding Omega Speedmaster introduced in 1957. It was sold in an edition of 5,957.
Omega is currently in a lawsuit against wholesaler Costco over grey market imports of Omega watches that challenges the legality of the first-sale doctrine with regards to international imports, Omega v. Costco. This lawsuit has been granted certiorari by the Supreme Court of the United States.
Sponsorship, product placement, advertising, and sport
Omega has been associated with James Bond movies since 1995. That year, Pierce Brosnan took over the role of James Bond and began wearing the Omega Seamaster Quartz Professional (model 2541.80.00) in the movie GoldenEye. In all later films, Brosnan wore an Omega Seamaster Professional Chronometer (model 2531.80.00). The producers wanted to update the image of the fictional "super-spy" to a more distinctly sophisticated "Euro" look.
Another possible reason for the change from the Rolex Submariner that Bond had previously worn was a change in the business environment surrounding modern high-profile films and product placement. Omega was eager to participate in high profile co-promotions/product placement opportunities, especially the James Bond franchise, to further its brand image/awareness. It accomplished this by supplying products and finance (something that the conservative Rolex company avoids, presumably because it sees no benefit for itself).
For the 40th anniversary of James Bond (2002) a commemorative edition of the watch was made available model 2537.80.00 (10,007 units). The watch is identical to the model 2531.80.00 except the blue watch dial had a 007 logo inscribed across it and also machined into the caseback. The band also had 007 inscribed on the clasp.
Daniel Craig, the current James Bond of Casino Royale, and Quantum of Solace also wears the Omega Seamaster: the Seamaster Planet Ocean (model 2900.50.91) in the first part Casino Royale, and in the latter part (from travelling to Montenegro), and even goes so far as to mention Omega by name when questioned by Vesper Lynd. In connection with the launch of the film, Omega released an 007-special of the Professional 300M, featuring the 007-gun logo on the second hand and the rifle pattern on the watch face, this being a stylized representation of the gunbarrel sequence of Bond movies.
Omega released a second James Bond limited edition watch in 2006. This was a Seamaster Planet Ocean model with a limited production of 5007 units. The model is similar to what Craig wears earlier on in the film; however, it has a small orange colored 007 logo on the second hand, an engraved caseback signifying the Bond connection, and an engraved 007 on the clasp. In the newest movie, Quantum of Solace, Craig wears the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean with a black face and steel braclet (42 mm version). Another limited edition was released featuring the checkered "PPK grip" face with the Quantum of Solace logo over it.

For the second time in recent months, Communications Minister Helen Coonan has found herself in the awkward position of trying to defend the merits of specific technologies.
Coonan argued that the government had anticipated that the porn filter announced by the Prime Minister last week would be cracked, eventually but must have been shocked by how quickly it was. On Friday, a year ten student found a workaround in thirty minutes, and defeated the subsequent update in forty more. Nevertheless, the government stands by the software it chose.
Similarly, when the Minister announced that the Optus-Elders consortium had won nearly a billion dollars to provide regional broadband, she was forced to defend the WiMAX technology against a barrage of criticism.
WiMAX is a high-quality technology but its reputation has suffered from some outrageous claims by its proponents. Early WiMAX advocates breathlessly claimed ranges of up to 70 kilometres. The government claims a range of 25 kilometres – even this is hopelessly optimistic.
Real life experience suggests that the technology has a much more modest range of 5-10 kilometres, in good conditions. And only on spectrum that the Optus-Elders network doesn’t currently have access to.
This new role – the government as tech expert – is becoming more and more prominent. Consumers are now quick to learn whether specific technologies or services meet the government’s seal of approval.
For instance, Telstra’s Next G service is, apparently, not satisfactory – Helen Coonan has received “hundreds of complaints”.
The Minister has also determined that a recent Telstra upgrade of its Hybrid Fibre Coaxial cable network is better than fibre-to-the-node technology, which will be news for those in the industry who have spent the last two years debating the appropriate regulatory framework to encourage firms to invest in fiberoptic broadband network.
Sometimes these statements are mere rhetoric flourishes, indicative only of a government struggling to navigate the complex interactions between politics and high-technology. But many in the industry are frustrated with the Communications Minister’s self-appointed role as technology propagandist and critic.
The government, when pressed, insists that it remains strictly “technology neutral” when it writes public policy. Unfortunately, the reality is much different.
In the course of the long-running dispute with Telstra, the government has largely abandoned allowing the market to decide the most suitable technologies. Instead, it has readopted the characteristic winner picking strategies which have long discredited national industry policies.

Students from ANTH326 “Middletown Materials: Archeological Analysis” will be excavating at the Beman Triangle this coming weekend. For those not aware of the history of the site, this was home to a planned African American community, with close ties to the AME Zion Church, from the 1840s through to the late nineteenth century. We have been excavating behind two houses and have been finding a range of exciting materials relating to everyday life from the 1860s through to the early twentieth century, particularly pharmaceutical related artifacts.
If you are interested, we will be happy to introduce visitors to the site any time between 1pm and 4:30pm on Saturday and Sunday afternoon. You will be able to find us behind 21 Vine Street; the excavations are fairly obvious.
If you’re interested in doing more than just watching and would like to get your hands dirty, let me know. We have opportunities for volunteers to participate in the project. Please also feel free to circulate this information; we are open to the public, and welcome visitors from outside Wesleyan.
It looks to be perfect weather for being outside and checking out some history.

I am writing an article for the Maryland State Numismatic Association about Maryland colonial currency. After writing the introduction, I thought it would be of interest to my readers. I made a slight modification to neatly end this as a single article. The rest will appear in a future MSNA Journal.
Prior to the Great Depression, paper currency was backed with specie, gold or silver mined in the United States. During the founding of the country currency had been limited to coins with an intrinsic value based on their gold, silver or copper content. As the King of England tried to tax the colonies to pay for the wars in Europe, the colonies looked for ways of financing their own governments to provide services.
Since the colonies did not have the ability to coin money, they issued paper notes. These notes functioned as currency but actually were bills of credit, short-term public loans to the government. For the first time, the money had no intrinsic value but was valued at the rate issued by the government of the colony in payment of debt. Every time the colonial government would need money, they would authorize the printing of a specified quantity and denomination of notes that it would use to pay creditors. The emission laws also included a tax that would used to repay the bill of credit and the promised interest.
As taxes were paid using the paper currency, the paper was retired. As the notes were removed from circulation, that was less payments the government had to make. On the maturity date, people brought their notes to authorized agents who paid off the loan. Agents then turned the notes over to the colonial government to be reimbursed and collect a commission for acting as an agent.
Sometimes, colonies could not pay back the loan. In those cases, the colonies passed another emission law to cover the debt owed from the previous emission plus further operating expenses. In this case, mature notes were traded for new notes. The colonists accepted this system since there were shortages of coins as well as there being an inability to convert the value of foreign coins into colonial shillings by farmers and other unskilled in such matters.
Maryland was one of the more successful colonies. Maryland benefited from its ownership of the Chesapeake Bay and ran a robust economy as a trading post for Maryland and Virginia goods. Maryland merchants were able to make a sizable living trading tobacco and other crops to Europe for Virginia farmers.
Starting in 1733, there were eight emissions from the Maryland colony with four during the Revolutionary War. The last emission was in 1780 with a successful payment of obligations in 1782, prior to its 1784 maturity date. In 1784, Maryland was able to pay its debts in specie, mostly Spanish Milled Dollars, and outlawed any future release of currency.

130 East 38th Street is a spectacular 4-story townhouse with a finished lower level suite and fabulous roof terrace, located off Park Avenue on a quiet, tree-lined street, in desirable Murray Hill, just 4 blocks from Grand Central Station.
Built in 1869 by developer Abraham B. Embury and architects D. & J. Jardine as a Second Empire-style brownstone, this historic gem was given a preservation award and landmark designation in 1997. The current owner worked with Landmarks and the Department of Buildings for over 4 years, completely gutting and rebuilding the interior; re-imagining every floor for today's living, while preserving the traditional exterior. The unique row of front windows were retained and refurbished, while entirely new oversized windows were cut into the rear. The modern open-tread staircase, fabricated from white oak and steel and an all-glass bulkhead, allow tremendous light to flow through the entire residence.
An Anglo-American collaboration of two design teams - Weston Design (London) and Adena Conway Design (NYC) have perfectly blended a chic British sense of sophistication with a modern aesthetic of luxury, livability and warmth. Clean lines, elegant living spaces with high ceilings, marble bathrooms, custom chef's kitchen, full smart-home automation and entertainment with a multi-zone Sonos sound system, supply a gracious mix of formal and relaxed areas. The Lutron lighting system, thermostats and electronic shades can all be controlled remotely. A high-tech security system and video entry provide peace of mind and automated irrigation ensures worry-free maintenance of the landscaped outdoor entertaining areas.
Highlights of this 3-4 bedroom, 4 bath beauty include sophisticated Farrow and Ball wall colors, Armani Casa wallpaper and Allascala marble in the inviting front hall; wide-plank white oak floors, a modern remote-controlled linear gas fireplace and a glamorous mid-century modern mirrored walnut bar in the formal living room. The chic Statuary and Temple Gray marble powder room with Altfield of London 'Hammered Glamour' silver walls and waterfall faucet showcase a Carlo Scarpa for Venini 1950's pendant. The sparkling bespoke kitchen with 11ft ceilings and 2"-thick Danby marble countertops, is both modern and classic, with custom Buster and Punch light switches and cabinet pulls and vintage Danish 1960's Jo Hammerborg 'Nova' pendants. Appliances are top-of-the-line; by Wolf, Sub-Zero and Bosch. Eat at the spacious island with its own wine refrigerator, or in the separate spacious formal dining area, replete with a David Weeks chandelier that is flooded with natural light. The comfortable sky-lit lower level family room with a 65" smart TV and surround sound system has a separate games area, kitchenette, dedicated laundry room, bathroom and under-street vaults with mechanicals and a wine cellar, providing suburban-scale amenities rarely found in Midtown Manhattan.
The spacious, quiet and private full-floor primary bedroom suite boasts no less than two large custom closets, electric shades and a spa-like Waterworks bathroom, with a sleek double vanity and Japanese toilet, set against a zen, black and white palette of sparkling white Italian tile, nero marquina marble and a glamorous Casablanca Mosaic floor. Two light-filled secondary bedrooms and a lovely modern marble bathroom with a soaking tub lead the way to the highlight of the house; a wonderfully lush, furnished and landscaped roof terrace for lounging and dining, while savoring amazing views of the Empire State and Chrysler buildings.
From its luxurious and sophisticated interior design, to its vintage light fixtures and cutting-edge technology, 130 East 38th Street provides its future owner with the unique opportunity to enjoy fully-furnished, 21st century living in a charming 19th century residence. Just bring your toothbrush.

Sharia law: It’s out there, alternately oppressing women and strengthening terrorists, probably. Even as we speak, communities
around the world in one part of the world apply this code of religious governance derived from the sacred texts of Islam. Imams and muftis use sharia law to resolve among their parishioners, much as rabbis and pastors do with the Judeo-Christian tradition. And in the same way that Lutherans who study abroad in China immediately begin trying to replace that country’s legal system with what their minister said, Muslims who immigrate to the United States set about enforcing sharia law. Take it from Gina Satterfield of Helena:
We as a nation and state do not have to wait as a forced host to witness the growing population for this foreign law to implement its totalitarian system.
That Markov chain of Palin-style main ideas came when Satterfield testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee in support of SB97, a bill from Keith Regier (R–Kalispell) that would prohibit Montana courts from applying foreign law. The Senate passed it Friday. Wags might point out that Montana courts already apply a fixed body of law, the US Constitution and the code of Montana. But Regier’s bill will strengthen our resolve against replacing our existing legal system with the informal religious guidelines of literally several Muslim immigrants.
Either that or it’s stunt legislation that rallies bigotry to solve a problem that doesn’t exist. I guess it would depend on whether any Montana court had ever tried to apply sharia law, or if anyone in Montana had ever called for sharia law to be enforced, or if Montana were, as of 2012, the least Muslim state in America. Update: Only the last of these three conditions is true, and Regier’s bill is definitely an unnecessary public performance of Islamophobia. You can read all about it in this week’s column for the Missoula Independent, which comes with my own ideas for other laws to protect us from foreign customs and futuristic toasters. We’ll be back tomorrow with Friday links.

The attorney represented a client who was seriously injured in a vehicle accident as the result of the defendant’s negligence. The coverage was limited. However, knowing that the driver’s home address was in a northeast resort town, the attorney suspected the adverse had additional assets. Her paralegal utilized a proprietary database to identify potential attachable assets and found nothing but the home address and the defendant’s vehicle, neither of which had a high value.
The attorney contacted CLI and provided us with a copy of her database report. On review, we determined that the report provided to the attorney contained much less information than was available to licensed investigators (see companion article, “Don’t Always Trust a Database Report”). We obtained our own database report and researched public records to identify another property not disclosed in the attorney’s report. This property appeared to be a second home in Florida, which was not homesteaded.
We also identified several properties that the defendant had owned in other states, mostly in resort areas. Two of these properties had been owned by the defendant individually and then quit claimed in the past five years to a woman who appeared to be living at the defendant’s residence. Her relationship with the defendant, a single man, was uncertain.
A Google search of the defendant’s first and last name produced no hits, but a second search, which included the defendant’s full name and middle initial, revealed a reference to a number of lawsuits which the subject had filed as a plaintiff. By reviewing relevant online records, we found that the defendant, personally and through various entities, had owned a large shopping mall in a northern state in the late 1990’s. This property had been sold for millions of dollars before the real estate market crashed.
We also searched federal records and found that the defendant was a partner in another large commercial transaction three years prior. That suit was settled in the partnership’s favor.
It appeared that the defendant may have been a “millionaire next door,” living a frugal lifestyle, but having substantial assets which were not immediately apparent in a low-cost database report. With this new information, the attorney felt comfortable moving forward with the suit. The cost of the investigation was less than $500.
Not every investigation will produce such dramatic results, but the combination of an attorney’s instincts and skilled research by trained legal investigators can make the difference between a large potential settlement and the regret of throwing away a $100,000 case.
