La locomotiva gruppo 422 è una locomotiva a vapore con tender per servizio merci di rodiggio 0-4-0, a 2 cilindri esterni e a semplice espansione, che le Ferrovie dello Stato acquisirono dopo il 1918 in conto riparazioni di guerra.

Storia
Le locomotive del gruppo 422 FS vennero progettate intorno al 1895 dalle officine meccaniche Vulcan di Stettino e costruite da varie industrie dell'epoca come Hanomag, Schichau, per conto delle ferrovie prussiane, KPEV, (Königlich Preußische Eisenbahnverwaltung) dove erano denominate G 8.
 Dato l'ottimo risultato, non disgiunto dalla semplicità costruttiva, al tempo fattore non trascurabile ai fini dell'economicità e della manutenzione di una locomotiva a vapore, ne vennero costruite oltre 1200 unità tra le quali le 22, pervenute nel 1919 alle FS in conto riparazioni di guerra.

La loro carriera in Italia tutto sommato fu breve e totalmente negli impianti ferroviari, delle Ferrovie dello Stato, del Nord; alla fine degli anni venti tutto il gruppo era assegnato a Milano. Negli anni trenta iniziarono gli accantonamenti e nella seconda metà del decennio le demolizioni che vennero sospese nel 1940 a causa dello scoppio della guerra. Le demolizioni ripresero a guerra finita coinvolgendo quasi tutto il gruppo ad eccezione della 422.001 giunta fino al 1958 e demolita l'anno seguente.

Nel 1946 la 422.009 (costruita da Hanomag nel 1911) e la 422.022 (costruita dalla stessa fabrica nel 1913) furono acquisite dalla Società Funivie di Savona per il servizio di manovra di treni di carbone nel proprio impianto di Bragno, presso San Giuseppe di Cairo, fino al 1973. Messe fuori servizio vennero acquistate dal Museo ferroviario piemontese.
La 422.009, sottoposta tra il 1990 e il 1995 a una Grande Riparazione della durata di 4500 ore, è visitabile presso la sede di Savigliano, la 422.022 è accantonata e si trova in stato di abbandono nella stazione di Favria.

Caratteristiche tecniche

La locomotiva fu costruita come altre similari con il rodiggio "D" (0-4-0); era una macchina a vapore surriscaldato (surriscaldatore tipo Schmidt) a 2 cilindri esterni a semplice espansione. La 422.007 apparteneva al primo gruppo di 13 unità "G 8" prototipo costruite dalla Vulcan di Stettino con surriscaldatore posto nella camera a fumo. Le altre 21 locomotive appartenevano invece alle serie successive. La distribuzione era a cassetto cilindrico e sistema Walchaerts.
La locomotiva era costituita da un carro su cui erano disposte le quattro ruote motrici accoppiate. Sul carro poggiava la caldaia per la produzione di vapore con pressione di esercizio a 12 bar.
La potenza continuativa sviluppata superava i 1000 CV. La prestazione attribuita dalle FS alla più bassa categoria di velocità e grado di prestazione 1 era di 1100 t. Il sistema di frenatura era pneumatico. Alla locomotiva era accoppiato ad alcune un tender a 3 assi ad altre un tender a carrelli.

Deposito locomotive di assegnazione
 Deposito locomotive di Milano Lambrate (prima assegnazione)
in seguito furono trasferite al
 Deposito locomotive di Parma per il servizio sulla Pontremolese
fino all'elettrificazione in Trifase della linea; vennero disperse in vari depositi del centro-nord.

These two recipes together are like a flavor explosion made in heaven! They go so well together that I decided to include both recipes in just this one post. The kids were gobbling it down and the hubby and I wanted to keep eating this dinner past being super full because of the tasty party going on in our mouths!
First up, we have this beloved family favorite Grilled Sprite Chicken. We got this recipe from my Husbands Mother who makes this regularly when she is serving large crowds or whenever we beg her to make this. It's a huge crowd pleaser! Now I have the recipe jotted down and the hubby won't have to bug his mom for the recipe every single time we are craving some of mom's grilled chicken.
What makes this chicken so delicious is the sweet and salty marinade. Don't skip on the vegetable oil, it seems like a lot but its what makes the chicken so juicy.
1. Cut chicken breast into two to three large strips.
2. In a large gallon size ziplock bag or large bowl add all the Marinade ingredients and chicken strips. Seal tight. Let refrigerate and marinade for at least 6 hours. Overnight for best results.
3. Grill for 10 to 15 minutes until fully cooked. Serve.
2. In separate bowl make the vinaigrette. Add all Vinaigrette ingredients stir generouslyuntil all the ingredients dissolve together. Vinaigrette is best made the day before for optimal flavor and texture.
3. Add Vinaigrette to pasta salad. Serve cold.


Michael Jones & Lisabeth Willey, "Amazing Alpine Communities of the Northeast"
The alpine summits of New England, New York, and eastern Canada (Quebec, Labrador, and Newfoundland) contribute substantially to the plant, bird, and invertebrate diversity of northeastern North America. Well-known summits such as Mount Washington have been the focus of ecological inquiry since the early 1800s. Beyond the Presidential Range and such other well-known mountains as Katahdin, Mont Jacques-Cartier, and Gros Morne are many little-known eastern alpine mountain ranges, unified by the treeless alpine communities on their slopes and summits but facing their own unique conservation challenges.
Join us for a presentation and lecture on the natural history of the lesser-known alpine ecosystems (with an emphasis on plants) of Québec, Labrador, and Newfoundland and for a book signing by Liz Willey and Mike Jones, editors of the Eastern Alpine Guide: Natural History and Conservation of Mountain Tundra East of the Rockies and co-founders of Beyond Ktaadn (beyondktaadn.org).

Day of the Dead in Lithuania -Vėlinės
Day of the Dead in Lithuania (Vėlinės): Where Pagan and Christian Traditions Meet in Enchanting Cemetery Settings. Vilnius in Love, a tour company specializing in unique and personalized excursions across Lithuania, invites to special tours of unique cemeteries, autumn countryside, and the Hill of Crosses. October 23, 2017 - Vilnius, Lithuania. On the first day of November, Lithuanian offices, shops and schools close, roads become packed with cars, families reunite, and everyone heads to one special place - the cemetery. Lithuanian cemeteries are already different from what you'd find in other countries - they rather resemble a botanical park, sinking in the sea of trees, adorned with flowers and beautiful tombstones. On November 1st, Lithuanians celebrate Vėlinės (vėlė means "soul" and ilgėtis means "to long") - the Day of the Dead, which is not as joyful an occasion as El Dia de Los Muertos in Mexico, but rather the day of remembrance and reunion that bears deep traditions. Cemeteries become the place of family gatherings, where young and old arrange flowers and light candles. When the sun sets, the cemeteries become enchanting, alive and mysterious from the sea of flickering candlelights and the aroma of thousands of fresh flowers. When golden trees and low-hanging sun create special autumn atmosphere, it's a perfect time to visit Lithuania and to get enchanted by the scenery and traditions, to explore some off-the-beaten track activities, and to see some old Lithuanian customs put into action. According to the old Lithuanian tradition, this is the time to remember the ancestors and to re-think one's place in the world. When Lithuania finally accepted Christianity (last country to be "baptised" in Europe), pagan and Christian traditions blended into one over time, giving special significance and depth to the Lithuanian Day of the Dead. The Old Cemeteries of

Tracing Jewish heritage in Vilnius & all of Lithuania
Tracing Jewish Culture in Vilnius, Jerusalem of the North: Special Tours That Take You to the Heart of Europe's Jewish Heritage. Vilnius in Love, a tour company specializing in unique and personalized excursions across Lithuania, invites to special Jewish heritage tours. September 19, 2017 - Vilnius, Lithuania. Did you know that bagels, made from yeasted wheat dough, originated from the Jewish communities of Lithuanian Grand Duchy and Poland? Each Lithuanian town used to have at least a few bagel bakeries, and each bakery had its own secret recipe. Bagels disappeared from Lithuania during the Second World War, together with the lively Jewish culture. However, they got transplanted into other countries, and are now one of the most popular breakfast items in the US and the UK. The good news is that bagels have currently returned to Vilnius, together with the revival of the local Jewish culture. Short history of the Jewish Vilnius Vilnius, which used to be called the Jerusalem of the North, welcomed its first Jewish citizens in the 14th century, by the special invitation of the Lithuanian Grand Duke Gediminas. The Grand Duke sent out letters inviting people of different nationalities and abilities to settle in Vilnius, in order to create a new vibrant European city. These were the beginnings of the multicultural Vilnius. In the 17th century Vilnius became the center of the Jewish Culture, and Litvaks - Jews with roots in the Lithuanian Grand Duchy - became known all over Europe for their intellectual Talmudic studies. The ones who gave Vilnius the reputation of an intellectual center were first and foremost its rabbis. The most famous rabbi was the Gaon of Vilna - Elijah ben Solomon, the intellectual leader of non-Hasidic Jewish community in the 18th century Europe, Torah scholar, kabbalist and communal leader. He

One of the oldest beer traditions in Europe
What Is the Flavor of Beer in "Game of Thrones"? Lithuania Opens Doors to Its Secret Centuries Old Brewing Traditions with Beer Tours for Visitors July 12, 2017. "Game of Thrones" characters seem to be enjoying their ale - no serious meal goes without it. But what would it taste like? Homemade beer - and its flavors - is one of the best time travel machines. While cities, traditions and people change throughout centuries, some well-kept local beers preserve the same yeasty, raw flavors for ages. Lithuanian beers, for example, is one of the best kept secrets in homemade brewing world. Homemade beer in Lithuania usually leaves reviewers fascinated and confused, mostly because they feel they have stumbled upon tastes they have never known existed. For example, the Jovaru alus - an amber-colored, hoppy, fruity, sweet and bitter beer - has a yeast strain that hasn't been identified as a part of any known species yet, making it a totally unique beer DNA sequence. Brewed by Aldone Udriene, the 70-year old queen of Lithuanian home brews, Jovaru beer receives some of the highest ratings in the beer world. The same way as Mrs. Udriene, most small Lithuanian brewers don't buy yeast from the lab, but pass the yeast on, generation after generation. The yeast is collected after each fermentation, and is used for the next batch, adding to the unusual and unique flavor of the beer. The use of odd ingredients - such as peas, flowers or raspberry stems - combined with brewing methods never used by any other tradition, make Lithuanian beer tasting into one of the most unexpected culinary experiences in Europe. One of the oldest beer traditions in Europe Lithuanian beer brewing traditions come from Pagan times - Lithuanians had several beer gods. There is even

Unique Adventure: Take a Hot Air Balloon Flight over Vilnius
Unique Adventure: Take a Hot Air Balloon Flight over Vilnius, and Adore One of the Largest Old Towns in Northern Europe from Above. Vilnius is one of a few European capitals allowing hot air balloon tours over the city. Due to the current airport renovation, hot air balloons are allowed to fly extremely low, offering a unique experience. August 2, 2017. The panorama of breathtaking Baroque architecture, red roofs of majestic medieval buildings, winding narrow streets, squares, hills, rivers, and green parks - that's the experience of those taking hot air balloon flights over Vilnius, one of the largest surviving medieval old towns of Northern Europe. Vilnius, Lithuania's capital city, is home to over 100 registered hot air balloons offering breathtaking city tours from up high. Only a few European cities allow this attraction, but Vilnius has an exceptional privilege of favourable geographic location, infrequent air traffic and flight control service that is very accommodating. Currently, the conditions to fly over Vilnius are the most unique, since Vilnius airport is closed for renovations until August 18, 2017 - and that offers an opportunity for the hot air balloons to fly extremely low, offering new angles at the stunning views below. Normally, a balloon must rise up to at least 800-1,000m (2,625 - 3,280 ft) height in order to accommodate air traffic - in fact, there have been instances of a balloon safely flying over an arriving or departing plane for some extra thrills. Hot air balloons usually fly in April - October in Lithuania, during the times of the day when the wind is favorable, and other conditions are right, such as cloudiness, rain, wind speed, visibility, and so on. The final decision about the conditions is usually made right before the launch. The duration of one flight is about

Vilnius History

So, I have some hand quilting progress. It is a great way to keep my hands busy and the mind sometimes. Quilting and sewing are my therapy. They are helping me deal with the loss of my sister. It gives me something else to think about. This fish may be my favorite so far. Although, the farting seahorse is a close second. It was my dear sister Kellie who dubbed it the farting seahorse. I may end up naming this quilt, the farting seahorse quilt, just for her.
Please visit all these wonderful women and see what they have been up to.
You can tell Kellie had a sense of humor, I mean, really a farting seahorse? Leave it tohHer. I searched high and low for a picture from my wedding, but could not find it. It would have made this story so very appropriate.
my long time friend Kim. I chose a sensible dress that could be ordered from J.C. Penny. It was Jade in color. I will never forget waiting at the church and in walks my older sister, Karen. Kellie immediately broke out into song (Sesame Street). "One of these things is not like the other one, not like the other one, not like the other one." Karen's dress was a different dye lot. It was much darker than everyone elses. She was very upset. I was just laughing. Kellie proceeded to sing under her breath at the altar. I miss her sense of humor. I want to talk to her.
The other night for the first time in my life, I saw a shooting star. I wished for a dream about Kellie where I could talk to her. I am still waiting.
Love the ones you are with.
I finally have something for the Hand Quilt Along. It is a miracle. Only took me about six weeks. This is another block for my under the sea quilt. Football season is coming, so I will likely have more as I spend more time watching TV. I am not a big TV watcher, but here in Central Ohio, we do love Ohio State Football. And, I grew up in the suburbs of Cleveland, so I do love the browns even though they have been awful lately.
Sister update: Ups and downs. Good one day, not so good the next. It is a crazy roller coaster. I did talk with her today and that always makes me feel better, even when she does not sound like herself. Thanks to everyone for their kind words.
Please make sure that you visit all these wonderful ladies and look at their beautiful hand work.
Fainéant, means slacker in French. Yes, I am one. I totally meant to do my Hand Quilt Along post before and schedule it, but no, that did not happen. It has just been an insane week at my house. Kids and sports, spent the weekend with my sister, just non stop. So I apologize to all my fellow hand quilters for being a Fainéant. I felt I used the word Slacker to much, so I figured I needed a new term. I am adding one more block to my under the sea collection. This month we have a whale. I do have to tell you, my last months post brought some criticism form some Facebook followers (my sister mostly). She insisted that my seahorses were farting. I tried to explain that it was meant to be swirls of water, but no, according to her it was pretty clear. Farting Seahorses. Now I look at my seahorses in a little different light. Darn it.
Please visit all the lovely ladies in the hand quilt along that are not Fainéants.
Kathy, Margaret, Kerry, Emma, Tracy, Deb, Connie, Susan, Nanette, Sassy , Edith, Sharon and Bella.
So, for June my One Monthly goal was to complete the Star Wars Quilt Top. Mission Accomplished. It needs some ironing, it kind looks all rumpled. I think this will be a donation quilt.
I also made these key chains. My guild attends a festival in late summer that is a big fund-raiser for us. They sell items that the guild members make and donate. Being in central Ohio, I thought these key chains might be something that could sell.
Oma's Treasures –Well, it certainly is bright.
Trying to decide if it is too obnoxious or loud. My goal was not to take away from the embroidery. I am not sure that I did that here. I don't mind the happy colors, but when you look at it's like a slap in the face of color. I still have a couple things in mind to do. One more one inch green around the outside, I think. I plan to quilt the outside, but I am not sure how yet. For where the embroidery is, since it is a such a long piece, I think I will sew tiny glass beads in the centers of some of the flowers to ensure the batting does not shift. Of course, my binding is a bit crazy. I have a striped piece of fabric (green/orange/pick/yellow) to add to the craziness of this piece. Feel free to give me your opinion on my color choices and any suggestions on quilting (kinda stumped with that). You will not offend me if you think it is awful. I asked for it. LOL.
On a positive note, some good news, my older daughter, who was in a horrific head on collision nearly a year ago, has moved out. I would say she is 90% of her old self, which is pretty good considering what I saw the first night in the ICU. While it was a challenging six months after the accident. The outcome was far better than I anticipated.
I found that quilting this piece was easier than others. I think it is because it is small and it made doing things other than meandering easier. While I feel slightly better about my quilting, I am pretty sure as soon as I go to bigger piece I will have the same issues.
I also like Halloween. I have another embroidered Halloween piece that I need to turn into something. I can't just sit in front of the TV. My hands must always be occupied. So, I wind up embroidering something that I can put in my quilts.
I know, practice, practice, practice the quilting.


Seems like yesterday we were in Prescott, AZ, for another amazing Retreat & Refresh Stroke Camp, sponsored by Dignity Health.
To reconnect with campers and volunteers I met at our very first camp in fall 2011 and to meet new folks is a privilege beyond words. At every camp, no matter the location, I discover the power of Stroke Camp and how it heals, lifts and enriches lives in so many ways.
There was an abundance of laughter and even some healthy tears this weekend in Prescott as you could not help but be transformed by everything and everyone surrounding you and touching your life in unique ways.
It was so exciting to be part of our second camp of the year and the first camp near Miami in mid-May, thanks to the sponsorship of Medtronic, in Association with Boca Raton Regional Hospital.
It's always so rewarding to be present for the birthing of the new camp, and this camp in Delray Beach was no exception. It was my first for the year, and there was much to do and learn with the new theme and activities built around a strong foundation that was started in 2004 by our founder Marylee Nunley and her husband John, a stroke survivor.

India restores social media access in Kashmir for 2 weeks
For the first time in eight months, people in Kashmir can use WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter and other social media services without any fear or use of specialized software — though things are not back to normal yet.
India said on Wednesday that it has temporarily lifted the ban on social media services and on the much broader internet, giving some relief to people and tens of thousands of businesses in the Himalayan region for two weeks.
New Delhi imposed a total communications blackout in the India-controlled territory in early August last year after withdrawing the special rights of Jammu and Kashmir. The government said the move was necessary to maintain peace in the region.
The move, which eventually became the biggest internet shutdown and crackdown of social media in any democracy, received wide criticism from human rights activists around the globe, as well as from lawmakers in the U.K. and the U.S.
The region, home to more than 7 million people, faced many challenges without access to the internet. The Kashmir Chamber of Commerce and Industry said that at least 150,000 jobs were lost.
India's top court ruled in January that the Narendra Modi-controlled government's move to enforce an "indefinite" communications blackout amounted to abuse of power, and sought an explanation.
In the wake of the order, India opened access to about 300 websites, which did not include social media services, and capped mobile data speeds at 2G level. One analysis had found that more than a third of the whitelisted websites were largely inaccessible.
To bypass the censorship, some users began to use VPN apps on their smartphone, an act that local authority quickly deemed "unlawful" and moved to open cases against hundreds of citizens.
On Wednesday evening (local time), several people in Kashmir confirmed that they were able to access WhatsApp and other social media services again — though there remains restriction on their mobile data speed.
My first tweet from #Kashmir outside of govt set media centre & without using a VPN. Have nothing exceptional to say except that tweeting so comfortably from home feels unreal.
Also, is anyone else in #Kashmir finding it unnerving/weird to get continuous updates on whatsapp?
— Azaan Javaid (@AzaanJavaid) March 4, 2020
According to a notice issued by the region's home secretary, the restoration of the internet will remain in effect till March 17.

Can You Use That Image on Social Media? [Checklist]
Facebook Updates Its Response to the Coronavirus Outbreak, Including Free Ads for WHO
One of George Santos's biggest and most offensive lies was the one he told, on multiple occasions, about having grandparents who'd had to run for their lives during the Holocaust. In 2021, the then candidate claimed in a campaign video that his "grandparents survived the Holocaust." Several months later, he told the Jewish News Syndicate: "I'm very proud of my grandparents' story," which he said included "fleeing Hitler." Perhaps laying the groundwork for his explanation in the event he got caught in this specific fabrication, he told Fox News Digital in February: "For a lot of people who are descendants of World War II refugees or survivors of the Holocaust, a lot of names and paperwork were changed in name of survival."
Like so many things that have come out of Santos's mouth, the one about his grandparents and the Holocaust does not, in fact, appear to be true, as multiple genealogy records indicate his grandparents were born in Brazil and, according to one genealogist who spoke to CNN, "There's no sign of Jewish and/or Ukrainian heritage and no indication of name changes along the way." Perhaps another sign that Santos does not have family members who were hunted by Adolf Hitler? His alleged willingness to joke about Hitler killing Jews, and Black people too.
Patch reports that in March 2011, Santos commented on a Facebook photo shared by a friend showing "someone making what appears to be a military salute with the caption 'something like Hitler'." Commenting below, Santos allegedly wrote: "hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh hiiiiiiiiiiiitlerrrrrrrrrrr (hight hitler) lolololololololololololol sombody kill her!! the jews and black mostly lolllolol!!! Dum." A former friend told the outlet they recalled seeing the offensive comment, took a screenshot and sent it along. Patch says it also "verified through another former friend, Gregory Morey-Parker, that the original Facebook post under which Santos wrote the Hitler comment existed." Presumably that will not be the case for very long. Morey-Parker, who was also once roommates with Santos, also told Patch that the newly sworn-in congressman would regularly make offensive jokes, typically about paying the bill for meals, "but he brushed it off saying he was Jewish. He'd always say that it was okay for him to make those jokes because he was Jewish," Morey-Parker recalled. (Santos has copped to the fact that he is not actually Jewish, by insisting he never said he was. "I never claimed to be Jewish," he said in an interview with the New York Post shortly after many of his lies initially came to light. "I am Catholic. Because I learned my maternal family had a Jewish background I said I was 'Jew-ish.'")

Donald Trump will be allowed back on Facebook and Instagram, as parent company Meta announced it would be ending its two-year suspension of his accounts. His suspension will end "in the coming weeks", the social media company confirmed, with Sir Nick Clegg, Meta's president of global affairs, saying the public "should be able to hear what their politicians are saying". Sir Nick added that the company will add "new guardrails" to Mr Trump's account "to deter repeat offences" just over two years after he used social media to incite an attack on the US Capitol.

Writing a book is no small feat and you should be proud of yourself for all the hard work you've done. The next step is to let the world know about your story and where they can find it. A good press release can be just the thing to spread the word quickly and generate some buzz around your work. But what makes for a great press release? These 10 tips should help.
Know Your Audience and Stick to the Facts: Most press releases will be read by a journalist. They aren't interested in being sold something or helping you drive visitors to your product page. The best way to increase the likelihood that your release will be picked up is to do as much of the work for the journalist as possible. Provide interesting facts, numbers, statistics from analysts, or quotes from yourself or your readers. Do your research and include it in the release – anything you can do to provide unique, interesting information will increase your release's credibility and its chances of being picked up.
Write in Third-Person: A press release is always written in third person because you are announcing news to a fresh audience and need to make the subject of your release as clear as possible.
Say Who or What in the First Line: Journalists are very very busy and receive tons of releases everyday. A good release should be able to get your point across within the first paragraph because most journalists only have time to read that far. It isn't always possible, but if you can mention the subject of your story within the first sentence, better yet, the first word of your press release, you can immediately set an expectation for what the release is about and if it is relevant to the reader.
Keep It Simple: Try to focus on one main point throughout your release – otherwise you risk confusing your reader. A great press release should make the journalist want to call you to learn more, not scratch their heads halfway through. A good rule of thumb to help is to keep your release down to one page and around 300 – 500 words.
Avoid Buzzwords: A journalist is interested in finding the story in your release so they can write their own. Buzzwords like "innovative," "breakthrough," "revolutionary," are all an immediate turn-off to a journalist. They are more interested in the facts that can back claims like this up.
Boilerplate: Every press release has a short, two to five sentence paragraph at the bottom called a "boilerplate." This is a high-level summary about the press release's subject material. For an author, think of it as a brief bio about yourself to give a journalist more information if they need it. Items like how long you've been writing, where you've been featured, where readers can find your work, awards and accolades, etc. are all good things to mention in a boilerplate and establish yourself as a reputable source.
Think of a Catchy, Thought Provoking Title and Subheading: I list this close to the bottom because a great press release title should summarize the content of the release in one line. A clever title can often be just the thing to catch a reader's eye. If you can't think of anything catchy, then try to highlight the most interesting, exciting news from the body of the release. You don't have to use subheadings, but they can be a great way to give just a little more detail about your release upfront. This should be complimentary to your title, and aim to further hook the journalist into reading further.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO): Think of keywords associated with your work and the audience you want to reach. Good SEO can help drive your release up further in search results on sites like Google and Yahoo!. Simply including keywords relevant to your subject will increase your release's visibility.
Sending It Out: There are many ways to send out a press release. I recommend a wire service like PRWeb or GlobeNewswire. Services like this typically charge a one-time fee that lets you use their distribution lists and will let you optimize your release in multiple formats such as a PDF, HTML, or plain text to ensure you reach the most readers. However, you may have your own list of contacts too. Emailing a release to a journalist is fine, but remember, you don't like to be spammed and they certainly don't. Emailing a journalist multiple times, addressing them by the wrong name, or sending them content that isn't relevant to their field of coverage is a sure way to get yourself blacklisted from ever getting coverage from them.
Now that you're ready to tell the world your story, feel free to use the handy press release template below. Just copy and paste the layout into a document and plug in your own information. Note the "###" at the bottom. This indicates the end of the release. Also, if you mention Lulu, please be sure to include this line at the end of your boilerplate: "The views and opinions expressed in this press release do not necessarily represent the views and opinions of Lulu.com or its affiliates." For more examples, also check out the Lulu press center.
This is a very interesting article, Keep up the great work.
Hi AJ, is it necessary still to create a Press Release for an ebook, or are they only a requirement for a printed book?
Also, and i'm sorry this is slightly unrelated to the above topic, I am looking at creating my ebook soon, which will be entirely images due to the abstract fonts I am using and graphic layout. It's not a graphic novel, but it's not far off. Anyway, I am wondering two important things.
1) Can i make my indesign document the same size as a printed book (say, 6×9) so that I can use the one file for an ebook (i.e. RGB colours, rasterised images etc) and then duplicate the file, add 3mm bleed, CMYK etc for a print version in case i decide to print the book later? This saves me time obviously making a whole print document and a whole ebook document, IF i can use the a printed book size for an ebook, or must an ebook be made to a specific size for it that does not compute with print format?
2) My first few publications will be illustrated poetry, and, like songs, I am concerned someone will read it, remember a line from a poem and not be able to search it because they can not recall the name of the poem and there is obviously no searchable text because the ebook is entirely images as pages. Now, can I either make the book again in single flow text and somehow float it behind the image-based ebook and link the pages of the single-flow text document to each corresponding image page in the image-based version? OR, can ereaders search alt' tags? In which case, I could put the whole copy of one poem in the alt tag of that image/page in the image-based epub file so that it can search the image by text, much like a website. And, if this is possible, where in my code shall i place alt tags? Obviously in this instance, there would be no need for a single-flow text version of the book and would save me lots of work, fingers crossed.
Is Press Release enough for media exposure?
I mean is it necessary to send media book excerpt too (dozen to twenty pages from book)?
How would media professionals (journalists book critics and reviewers) know what they should present to readers, if they do not have, at least, book excerpt.
The point of a press release is to provide journalists with a very simple, high-level story that peaks their interest and makes them want to call you for more information. Just like book editors don't like receiving unsolicited materials, neither do journalists. I would only send them copies of your work or excerpts if they specifically ask. Failing that, you can also include a short snippet in your release if you can work it in, in a relevant and meaningful way.
Hi AJ, Press release syndication is expensive. Is there a free method to distribute a press release?

Q: Plotly updatemenus clipping into subplots I have a plotly figure with two subplots.  I want the top subplot to use the updatemenus to switch between different options.  The bottom plot is static.  The issue I have is the first time a new option is selected the top chart expands to become as tall as both charts.  Simplified code below.
Some other things I've tried:

*

*changing the method to restyle fixes the expanding top subplot but then doesn't change the axis title, ideally I can have both.

*I've tried a few combination of other yaxis parameters (anchor, position) but nothing has worked so far.  I'm guessing this is where the solution is but I'm not certain.

*I tried putting row_heights into the second argument of args but that had no effect

It seems like the row_height is defaulting back to 1 on an update but I can't find the parameter to change it.  Picture of what it looks like after changing from square to cube below.
import plotly.graph_objects as go
from plotly.subplots import make_subplots
import pandas as pd

def main():
    figure = make_subplots(rows=2, cols=1, shared_xaxes=True)

    df = pd.DataFrame([[1, 1, 1, 1], [2, 4, 8, 1.41], [3, 9, 27, 1.73]], columns=['num', 'square', 'cube', 'sqrt'])

    figure.add_trace(go.Scatter(x=df['num'], y=df['square']), row=1, col=1)
    figure.add_trace(go.Scatter(x=df['num'], y=df['sqrt']), row=2, col=1)
    figure.update_yaxes(title='square', row=1, col=1)
    figure.update_yaxes(title='sqrt', row=2, col=1)

    buttons = []
    options = ['square', 'cube']
    for option in options:
        buttons.append({'method': 'update',
                        'label': option,
                        'args': [{'y': [df[option]]},
                                 {'yaxis': {'title': option}},
                                 [0]
                                 ]
                        })
    figure.update_layout(updatemenus=[dict(buttons=buttons, direction='down')])
    figure.show()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

A: After making a comment that just shows how you don't have to be all that smart to answer questions on SO...sorry about that. Obviously, you're right. I had to delete that comment, my pride just couldn't handle it!!
Either way, the solution to your original question.
For restyling y, you've nailed it.
For relayout of the yaxis, you need to know a few things:

*

*What did Plotly name the yaxis? Chances are, if it's the second listed graph, the y-axis is named yaxis2.

*What is the yaxis.domain for the affected graph?

*Is there a title to begin with? (You need to have a title to change it. The title can be "", though.)

For both of these needs, you can use the figure you've already created to get the information. Unless it's an overwhelmingly complicated setup, it's a safe guess on the name of the yaxis.
To get the domain that you need for the buttons, create an object with that information before creating the buttons. You only need to collect the domain of the yaxis that is getting the new title.
y1dom = fig.layout.yaxis.domain
y2dom = fig.layout.yaxis2.domain

Here's a simple but effective example that works. This updates the graph at the bottom.
x, y = ([1, 2, 3], [1, 3, 2])
fig = make_subplots(rows = 2, cols = 1, shared_xaxes = True)
fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(x = x, y = y, mode = "lines"), row = 1, col = 1)
fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(y = y, x = x, mode = "markers"), row = 2, col = 1)

y2dom = fig.layout.yaxis2.domain # collect the domain assigned in the subplot

fig.update_yaxes(title_text = "y-axis title of bottom subplot", row = 2, col = 1)

fig.update_layout(
    updatemenus = [go.layout.Updatemenu(
    buttons = list([
        dict(
            args = [{'y':[[1, 1, 1]]},
                    {'yaxis2':{'title': 'title', 'domain': y2dom}},
                    [1]],
            method = 'update', label = 'update 1'),
        dict(
            args = [{'y':[[1, 3, 2]]},
                    {'yaxis2':{'title': 'different title', 'domain': y2dom}},
                    [1]],
            method = 'update', label = 'update 2')
        ])
)])
fig.show()

The images are the original data, update 1, then update 2.

WFC Presents Milestone 50TH EVENT – Breaking Boxing News
World Fighting Championships marks its 50th event milestone with a new beginning. The growing boxing and mixed martial arts crossover promotion makes its Pennsylvania debut when it presents WFC 50, live professional boxing, on Saturday, April 9th at The Meadows Racetrack and Casino.
WFC 50, currently slated for six bouts, pits Tommy Karpency (25-5-1, 14KO) versus Paul Gonsalves (9-7-1, 4KO) in an 8round light-heavyweight contest. Karpency made waves with a win over "Bad" Chad Dawson in 2014, and is seeking redemption after his loss to Canadian Light Heavyweight Adonis Stevenson in September, when he challenged the polarizing fighter for the WBC Light Heavyweight title.
Karpency brings a wealth of experience to ring with him, having fought top competition since his debut in 2006, while Massachusetts-based Gonsalves will be in his first title fight on April 9th.
WFC 50 is a family affair for Karpency, who joins brothers Jeremiah Karpency and Dan Karpency on the card. Heavyweight Jeremiah (12-0, 4KO) looks to remain undefeated when he faces the more experienced Mike Sheppard (24-19-1, 10KO) for the WBA NABA US Heavyweight Championship. Younger brother Dan Karpency (5-0, 1KO) will be facing Eric Bledsoe (1-1, 1KO) in a four round bout at Middleweight.
"We couldn't be happier that our milestone 50th event happens to be our debut in
Pennsylvania," said WFC Promoter Matt McGovern. The young promoter inked a multi-event deal with The Meadows Racetrack and Casino in late 2015. "We are going to give boxing fans and casino guests a high-quality, action packed night of fights, just as we've done in our previous 49 events. We are bringing three titles to Pittsburgh. We want to show the fans and local boxing community that we are here to stay."
Tickets are priced at $100, $50, and $25, and are available along with VIP tables via the WFC website at www.worldfightingchampionships.com.
Doors open at 6:00 p.m. on fight night. First bell is at 7:00 p.m.

MAP-exTalk 4: "Time Boomerang" with UuDam Tran Nguyen
Fri 20 Oct 2017, 3 – 5 pm
Heritage Space Library
From Heritage Space:
Heritage Space proudly presents MAP-exTalk 4 "TIME BOOMERANG" with a presentation by visual-multimedia artist UuDam Tran Nguyen from Hochiminh city (Vietnam). It is a part of an art experience exchange series in the "Month of Art Practice 2017" organized by Heritage Space.
In the talk, UuDam will share his practical experience in developing artworks, through an example of TIME BOOMERANG currently on view at the Tokyo Contemporary Art Center. This artwork was inspired by the dispute over the East Sea (South China Sea). UuDam started to work on this in 2013. After experimenting and failing times after times, he found his own solution to the problem. This is an ambitious art piece that integrates different materials, can endure for millions of years and parallel performances across all five continents in the world. He demonstrated his artwork for the first time at the Mien Meo Mieng Bildmusset Museum, in which Tran Luong and Le Thuan Uyen served as the curator and curator assistant respectively.
This work has 8 phases. At the SunShower exhibition in NACT, UuDam presented three complete phases: 1st phase, two parts of 2nd phase and 4th phase. He will introduce about Time Boomerang and display some of 6 videos at the SunShower during the talk.
UuDam was born in Kontum, Vietnam in 1971. He studied at the University of Fine Art in Saigon from 1990-1994. UuDam graduated from UCLA with a BA in 2001. He got his MFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York in 2005. He currently lives and works in HCMC.
UuDam transforms the boundaries between urban myth and popular legend to both celebrate – and warn – of the role and impact of human progress and its desire for social Aadvancement. Working with video, performance, photography, sculpture robotics and new media, Nguyen's playfully thought-provoking practice is today one of the prominent voice of Vietnamese contemporary art.
UuDam has been exhibiting at many venues of the world including the Yokohama Museum of Art, Aichi Triennale, the High Line Art in NYC, Queensland Museum of Contemporary Art (QAGOMA) in Australia, Asia Pacific Triennale 8th, Bildmuseet Museum in Sweden, OnSite Art Fest in Taipei, Art Stage Singapore 2016, Lyon Museum of Contemporary Art, Kadist the Jewish Museum in New York, RISD Museum in the USA, Singapore Biennale 2013, Center for Contemporary Art Ujazdowski Castle, Vietnam Eye at Casa Italia, and recently, he participated the residency at NTU CCA in Singapore… He is currently participating in the Sunshower exhibition at the National Art Center in Tokyo where he presents part 1, 2 and 4 of his ambitious multi-phased project: TIME BOOMERANG.

When Robert Louis Stevenson wrote the Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde novella, he probably wasn't so sure that it would become as big a hit as it eventually did. The book was first published in the year of 1886. It presents readers with a tale about a London lawyer with the name of Gabriel John Utterson. He investigates strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll, and the evil Edward Hyde. Of course, it comes about that this is one and the same person. The story presents a look at how people can be starkly different in moral character from one situation to the next. Fortunately, this Ash Gaming slot is able to bring forth impressive graphics and gameplay as well. So, it tells the tale in a very impressive way, ensuring that entertainment is had throughout. And not only does it bring forth the story of Jekyll & Hyde, but it offers up some interesting special features at the same time.
The display of this online slot game provides players with a total of five reels and three rows. This is a fairly standard and familiar layout for a video slot to offer up. And alongside this display, there's a total of 25 different win lines for you to place wagers on. These are not something that you have the option of customising, so you will always be wagering on 25 lines. However, you do have the chance to change around the value of the bet that you place. Simply make use of the plus and minus buttons which are found below the 'Total Bet' box. These provide you with a set of values between $0.25 and upwards to $125 per spin. There's also the inclusion of an 'Auto Play' button for you to make use of, as well as a 'Turbo Mode' button as well.
The graphical content of this game provides you with the highest in quality, so you'll have a visually pleasing game to experience. The background of the slot offers up stone walls, with green mist rising from the bottom of the screen. As far as the imagery upon the game's reels goes, there are some impressive icons for you to spin through. These exist, first of all, in the regularly seen playing card symbols. There's the 10, the J, the Q, the K and the A. However, each of these is present in three different colours – red, blue and silver. There are also some higher paying symbols in the game, starting with a notebook and another of a top hat and staff. These can reward you with up to 150 times your in-play wager. Three character symbols are also available for you to see on the reels. These are the two ladies, one blonde and one brunette. Another one comes in the form of lawyer, Gabriel John Utterson.
This story leaves a mass of room for intriguing special features to appear across its reels. Fortunately, Ash Gaming has taken this opportunity and really has run with it. To begin with, the game contains a wild symbol. This comes in the form of Dr Jekyll. He can show up on reels two, three and four and he will stand in for all other icons on the reels. The only exceptions to this rule are the game's scatter symbols. Should Dr Jekyll manage to form part of a win, he will expand to fill the entirety of it. As he does, he will also transform into Mr Hyde!
As far as the scatter symbols go, these are present in the form of two different bottles of potion. The green one and the red one. You need to land three or more scatter symbols in order to trigger the freespins round of the game. This gives you the option of playing either the Jekyll Spins or Hyde Spins. If you opt for the Hyde Spins, all of the three standard character icons will become wild additions. This occurs whenever the scatter icon comes into view, and it turns one of these three wild. Of course, this means that they will substitute for all others in order to form wins. If you decide to play Jekyll Spins, every time the scatter symbol shows up, the wild multiplier will increase. This has a maximum value of times five. Both freespins rounds will continue on until players get four scatter icons on the very last reel.
Finally, players also have the option of using the 'Feature Bet' button at the bottom of the reels. This will first of all double your bet, giving you a maximum of $250. It will also power up the game's scatter additions. When they power up, scatters can trigger freespins even when they're one position above or below the reels!
The theme of this game is not something that has first come to light in this Ash Gaming offering. In fact, Microgaming have a slot under the very same title that you could try out. It contains 243 ways to win as well as a five reel, three row layout. Again, there are some amazing graphics on display for you to see, while 10 freespins can be won from three scatter icons. However, if you prefer the inbuilt features of this slot, then allow us to suggest one or two more to you with similarities. There is another Microgaming slot that we can recommend, which is Avalon 2. It's another 243 ways to win offering, but provides freespin win multipliers of up to times six. Stacks of wild icons can also show up, while expanding wilds appear on reel three. Finally, why not try out Isle of Plenty Mega Jackpots from IGT? This one has 40 separate win lines for you to play through, with a five reel and four row layout. Between six and 24 freespins can also be won in this slot, and it has a single progressive jackpot.
We already know that Ash Gaming are impressive when it comes to online slot games. However, the graphics and overall design of this game are very intriguing indeed. The special features that it contains make it ever more entertaining, while the overall gameplay is thoroughly exciting.

Macdonald wrong on support for BC Teachers Federation
Political rival says MLA Norm Macdonald is wrong on supporting BC's teachers
Sep. 10, 2014 8:00 a.m.
There are very few times that Norm Macdonald and I agree on things but I have found a few exceptions. As a former teacher myself I believe in a strong public education system. I respect and value our teachers and applaud them for hard they work and the value they bring to the lives of our children. I believe that teachers deserve an affordable raise and that our children deserve all that can possibly be given in terms of class size and composition.
That said, I find it extremely disappointing that Mr. Macdonald has taken an opportunity to politicize this very serious provincial situation by trying to have us believe that there is a "right side" and a "wrong side," that the Premier supports private over public schools and that she is "100 per cent to blame." These statements are simply irresponsible, inaccurate and misguiding with the expressed intent of inspiring nothing more than emotional responses from people who deserve far better.
Mr. Macdonald neglects to acknowledge that negotiation never labels a right or a wrong side nor will the process ever assign blame to a single person. Mediated negotiation recognizes opposing sides and the differing opinions held and promotes collaboration as both sides work toward a mutually agreeable settlement.
His blame game neglects to mention that the BC Teachers Federation (BCTF) continues to struggle with the concept of concession, which is a key element of any bargaining process or that it is puzzling why the BCTF have rejected the government's offer to re-open schools while mediation continues.
Disturbingly, Mr. Macdonald chose not to reference the fact that the BCTF actually refused to let teachers vote on suspending the strike during continued mediation or equally puzzling why the BCTF seems to wants to force government to legislate teachers back to work knowing that this will result in the same dysfunctional relationship that has been the B.C. experience for the past 30 years.
Mr. Macdonald believes that it is fair for the BCTF to demand more money than has been awarded to any other BC public employee, and then on top of that throw in a $5,000 teacher signing bonus. Sound fair to you?
Mr. Macdonald does not understand the BCTF refusal to set aside educational issues that are currently before the courts and cannot be negotiated at this time, are keeping kids out of classrooms. Further he neglects to acknowledge the BCTF wants to go back to the old ridged ratios and formulas that in the past defined class size and composition knowing full well that no other province in Canada manages its classrooms this way. Why? They are inefficient, ineffective and highly discriminatory towards students with special needs.
Blame is a waste of time and takes the focus off what is most important — getting kids back into classrooms. For the sake of our kids Norm act like an MLA and roll up your sleeves and do something. Meet with and encourage your BCTF pals and do everything you can to get them back to the bargaining table. This will demonstrate with measurable effort that you do unequivocally support teachers and public education and that you are the MLA

While many offices have a stated goal to become paperless, it seems that these same offices continue to churn out more and more documents each day. Despite technologies that should make paperless offices a reality on a larger scale, companies are still in need of methods to help reduce the costs associated with printing. Fortunately, Pacific Office Automation San Jose has some sound advice.
While the human side of reducing printing costs may prove difficult, the technological side should be a relative breeze. Efficient printers that have cost-saving functions are becoming more readily available, with companies like Pacific Office Automation San Jose leading the way.
While there will still be issues with convincing employees to remain aware of the costs that they are responsible for generating, the implementation of technologies such as MFPs will often show that management is serious about reducing printer costs, and employees will then be much more likely to follow suit.

Home Smartphones LG G3 – Simple and New Smartphone from LG
LG G3 – Simple and New Smartphone from LG
LG recently announced their new flagship device and called it the LG G3. Speculations and rumors told us already that the device is going to be an ace. The spec sheet wasn't exactly dazzling when the device was finally launched but that was not because it wasn't powerful but because we knew too much about it already. This new flagship device not only boasts of powerful hardware and new technologies but also brings a fresh design.
Thankfully the designers at LG are more creative than the heads working at Samsung. While they haven't used anything like glass or brushed aluminum to make this new device, it definitely looks like an upgraded version of the G2. The LG G2 has got a glossy plastic finish which ruins the premium feel but the G3 has got a premium metallic finish. For this metallic finish, they haven't used any metal here but it definitely looks and feels premium. For them low weight and thickness were a priority so metal and glass were out of question. They claim that the surface is anti-scratch.
Just like the LG G2, they have decided to stick to the power and volume keys on back panel. This seems to be a bit weird but after a while, it feels better than the standard arrangement. The buttons are different in design as compared to G2 and they don't really look like buttons at the first look. They were quite prominent on the G2 but here they blend with the design. The device is huge because of the large display but they have designed it very well to keep it slim. There are hardly any blanks above and below the display and neither has it got any bezels. It is actually smaller in length than some of the 5 inch devices on market.
Well the display of this device is an absolute treat. The 5.5 inch display boasts of quad HD resolution. Which means that it has got four times the number of pixels on a 720p display or in simple words, a whopping resolution of 2560 x 1440. This gives it a pixel density of 534 ppi which is almost twice of a display that we will term as crisp. The IPS display is just superb with very true to real colour replication. The contrast ratios are quite impressive as well. This is the first device from a major manufacturer to boast this display resolution.
The device has a powerful hardware to give the rivals a tough fight. It has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 chipset. The quad core processor is clocked at a maximum speed of 2.5 GHz. To handle the graphics, it has got an Adreno 330 GPU. It comes with 2 or 3 GB RAM options. The 16 storage version comes with 2 GB of RAM while the 32 GB version has got 3 GB RAM. It supports micro SD cards up to 128 GB. For connectivity, you get Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, DLNA, HSDPA, LTE, micro USB 2.0, USB on the go, Bluetooth 4.0, infrared and NFC.
Powering this device is a 3000 mAh battery. While most new devices don't come with user replaceable batteries, you can open the back panel on this device to access the battery. It also supports wireless charging though there is no wireless charger supplied with the device. The audio quality of the G2 was impressive and it gets even better on this device. Even if you are not using headphones, the 1 watt loudspeakers provide you pretty loud and clear audio.
It has the same resolution as the LG G2 but all the wizardry here is new. The previous device used to rely on contrast auto focus but this one adds laser auto focus with it. This hybrid system makes focusing precise and fast. The optical image stabilization is improved considerably and it can expose longer without blur in low light conditions. It has got dual tone flash to control white balance in dark conditions.
It can record videos at 2160p or 1080p but there is no option to record slow motion videos like many other new devices. You get a HDR mode for videos as well. The camera app on this device gets some new software features like the magic focus. It captures multiple photos and then lets you choose the focus point later.
It comes running the android 4.4 Kit Kat but it is far from stock. The LG custom interface is simplified as compared to what we have seen on earlier devices and has a neat look now. They have changed the icons and they don't look very premium. The notification bar icons are round similar to the Galaxy S5.
There are some fresh additions like Smart Notice. It gives you suggestions by observing your daily activities. It would also suggest you to remove apps you don't use. The keyboard is also smarter and keeps learning as you use. It retains the knock code feature that we saw on some other LG devices. They have changed the way recent apps are displayed. They are displayed in a grid and you can zoom in or out to change the number of apps being displayed.
LG G3 is a superb device and there is no point we can put against it. It might not have the metal body of an HTC One but it still holds a strong position with its impressive design. It has got a superb display which blows every other device out of steam. They haven't made it waterproof or dustproof but it has been done to keep the device sleek and light. The software features are surely fresh and the keys on back panel make operations easy. Overall this device is a nice package and we would surely recommend it over something like the Samsung galaxy S5 or HTC One M8 for its all-round abilities.

Jean-François Bentz has quit as group chairman of Fitch. His successor is not yet known.
Bentz officially ceased to be chairman of the Fitch board at the beginning of the year, a fact that has been kept secret until now. He will still be involved in the group, but his role has yet to be finalised.
Bentz has been with the consultancy since 1992, when Brand Trust, together with Terence Conran, invested £2.5m in Fitch, which was then facing bankruptcy.
Most recently Bentz helped steer Fitch through its delisting and its acquisition by Lighthouse Global Network and its subsequent purchase by present parent Cordiant Communications Group.
