Intex Cloud Champ With 3G Support Launched at Rs. 3,999
Intex has launched a new entry-level Android smartphone, the Cloud Champ. The handset is now listed on the company website with a price tag of Rs. 3,999.
The Intex Cloud Champ is a dual-SIM smartphone running Android 4.4.2 KitKat out-of-the-box. It features a 4.5-inch FWVGA (480×854 pixels) TFT display. Powered by a dual-core MediaTek MT6572X processor clocked at 1GHz, the Cloud Champ features 512MB of RAM.
The latest Intex smartphone sports a 5-megapixel rear camera with LED flash and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera. It bears 4GB of inbuilt storage, which can be expanded up to 32GB (via microSD card).
Measuring 136×67.5×8.7mm, the Intex Cloud Champ connectivity features include 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Micro-USB, and GPS. A 1700mAh battery backs the handset claimed to deliver up to 7 hours of talk time and up to 298 hours of standby time.
Intex on Thursday unveiled an upgraded variant of the Aqua Q7 smartphone, the Aqua Q7 Pro. Priced at Rs. 4,190, the Intex Aqua Q7 Pro came with specifications that are nearly identical to the Intex Aqua Q7. The biggest difference between the two handsets is that the new Aqua Q7 Pro packs 1GB of RAM. The Intex Aqua Q7, on the other hand, came with just 512MB of RAM.
Earlier this month, the domestic handset maker in partnership with Truecaller announced that it would replace the native dialler app on its smartphones with the Truecaller dialler. Under the partnership, theIntex Aqua Young, priced at Rs. 5,090, would see both the Truecaller and Truedialer applications preloaded on the handset.

Q: When is kinetic energy linear? If we were to plot kinetic energy and time, what would the circumstances be in order for kinetic energy to increase or decrease linearly?
The question I had in class showed a body with some velocity and some retarding friction force. The kinetic energy decreased linearly. Is this because the amount of energy converted to heat energy by friction is constant because the frictional force is constant?

A: Yes, kinetic energy will decrease linearly if friction is constant.
When there is a force, it does some work on the object that causes its energy to decrease linearly.
A constant force doing work only causes the total mechanical energy to decrease linearly, it doesn't cause the kinetic energy to decrease linearly with displacement.
However, in this case, there is no change in the potential energy of the body, hence the kinetic energy decreases linearly with displacement.
So yes, for the example you did in class, it's possible for kinetic energy to decrease linearly with displacement.
However, for it to decrease linearly with time, your change in kinetic energy must be constant.
Using calculus here,
d^2/dt^2 mv^2/2 = 0
d/dt m/2 * (va + va) = 0
d/dt mva = 0
m(a^2 + v da/dt) = 0
ma^2 + v * jerk = 0

This weekend features a new release of Is Parallel Programming Hard, And, If So, What Can You Do About It?.
This release features Makefile-automated running of litmus tests (both with herd and litmus tools), catch-ups with recent Linux-kernel changes, a great many consistent-style changes (including a new style-guide appendix), improved code cross-referencing, and a great many proofreading changes, all courtesy of Akira Yokosawa. SeongJae Park, Imre Palik, Junchang Wang, and Nicholas Krause also contributed much-appreciated improvements and fixes. This release also features numerous epigraphs, modernization of sample code, many random updates, and larger updates to the memory-ordering chapter, with much help from my LKMM partners in crime, whose names are now enshrined in the LKMM section of the Linux-kernel MAINTAINERS file.
As always, git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/perfbook.git will be updated in real time.
Oh, and the first edition is now available on Amazon in English as well as Chinese. I have no idea how this came about, but there it is!


This basic sous vide recipe is a great foundation for tender, juicy pork chops. Experiment by adding your favorite aromatics to the vacuum bags.
Plump spiced cherries adorn crispy skinned duck breast in this beautiful - and easy - recipe from Chef Barbara Lynch.

You Are Here: Home Microgaming » Bikini Party
Bikini Party Pokie Machine
Beautiful babes in their swimwear are enough to attract plenty of people to any online pokie game, but when it comes to Microgamings' Bikini Party, there's more to had than just what meets the eye.
Free spins, multiplier awards, an interesting re-spin feature and a layout that does away with conventional paylines are just some of the added attractions here, while the very fact that it comes from such a well-respected developer means that it can be trusted to deliver a fair payout and gets independently audited for reliability on a regular basis.
Playing at the Party
A slightly mis-leading name suggests that the girls are dancing and drinking away at an actual party, but they are all drawn as Beach Volleyball players. That's not a complaint, just an observation, so we shall just move on to how the game works and what treats it serves up to players.
The main difference between this and many other pokies is the inclusion of the '243 Ways to Win' system that Microgaming choose to feature in a number of their games and has proved to be highly popular.
Instead of fixed paylines running in ridged lines across the reels, any examples of the same symbol stopping on adjacent reels will result in a payout, as long as the line starts from the far left side. I've not counted it, but it's fair to assume that there are 243 different ways in which this is possible, and unless someone else wants to work it out, we will just have to trust Microgaming that this is how it works. (Don't worry – it is.)
Players can stake 0.25 as a minimum in this game, which automatically covers all potential winning outcomes, while the most that can be wagered on a single spin is a hefty 125.00, making this a good game even for fairly big bankrolls.
As to the symbols themselves, the playing card icons 9, 10, J, Q, K and A are all there, and higher up the paytable are the cartoon-style girls themselves, each of them showing off their Volleyball skills while dressed in a skimpy bikini. While they are all a treat for the eye when landing on the reels, the one in a red bikini is the biggest treat for the bankroll, as she awards players with up to 160x the bet amount.
5 1 1 5 Bikini Party
Bikini Bonuses
A wild symbol can appear on reels 2 and 4 and when it does so it can help to make a winning combination by acting as any other, apart from the scatter. Unlike the wilds in many other games, it's got no value of its' own, nor does any win resulting from a wild substitution get multiplied in value.
The scatter symbol is the volleyball, and this has a couple of useful attributes, both of which will be familiar to players of online pokies. Should 2 or more scatters land in any positions on the reels, a prize that's a multiple of the total bet per spin will be awarded, with anything from 2x to 100x the amount coming from between 2 and 5 scatters appearing.
It's also the trigger for a free spins game, with 15 spins playing out should 3, 4 or 5 scatters land. A nice touch is that these run their course on a second screen with an atmospheric sunset as the backdrop, but what's even nicer is that any wins are tripled in value, while 3 or more scatters appearing throughout them will cause a further 15 free spins to be added to the end of any current ones still to go.
This is a fairly standard bonus round, but Bikini Party also has a feature that may be common on traditional fruit machine style pokies, but isn't so frequently encountered in this type of game. For an extra bet each go, players can opt to re-spin a reel as many times as they like and with a little bit of luck and judgement, this can create a winning combination where there wasn't one before.
Only a single reel can be re-spun at any one time, and the amount needed to play this feature is clearly displayed beforehand, so players can work out if it's worth it or not.
Choose these wisely however, as it's easy to get carried away and wager more on re-spinning a reel than you would be likely to get back in return.
It's hard to get away from the fact that this game is largely aimed at male players, as the girls may be cartoons, but they are designed to be as attractive as possible. Outside of that however, it's a pretty good pokie that has bonus features that should appeal to everyone.

Equanimity (Skt. upekṣā; Pali upekkhā; Tib. བཏང་སྙོམས་, tang nyom, Wyl. btang snyoms) — one of the fifty-one mental states defined in Abhidharma literature. According to the Compendium of Abhidharma, it belongs to the subgroup of the eleven virtuous states. It is also one of the four immeasurables, and in meditation practice, it is the eighth antidote, which is the antidote to the fifth fault of (over-application). For the later, see the five faults and eight antidotes.

Q: Using For each loop without try-catch in Visual basic 2012 I have this simple code:
Public Class Form1
Dim strFriends(4) As String

Private Sub ArrayElement_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ArrayElement.Click
    ClearList()

    'Try
    For Each item As String In strFriends
        lstFriends.Items.Add(item)
    Next
    'Catch
    'End Try
End Sub

Private Sub ClearList()
    lstFriends.Items.Clear()
End Sub

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

    strFriends(0) = "tom"
    strFriends(1) = "kate"
    strFriends(2) = "bill"
    strFriends(3) = "harry"
End Sub

End Class
If the try-catch is removed, i get System.ArgumentNullException is it compulsory to use try catch block to use For Each?

A: You are declaring a 5 element array: Dim strFriends(4) As String. In Vb.NET the number represents the max index on the array, not the number of elements.
But you're declaring only 4 elements. So in the foreach block, the last element is the default value for strings, which is Nothing, being unable to add it to the listview (or whatever).
You can check for every item on the array to be valid, like others suggested, or correct your code.
Try this, for example:
strFriends = New String() {"tom", "kate", "bill", "harry"}

You can use a List, too:
Dim strFriends As New List(Of String)()

strFriends.Add("tom")
strFriends.Add("kate")
strFriends.Add("bill")
strFriends.Add("harry")

A: Or you can check each item before adding. You are also not filling the last element and that is the reason for the exception.
If item IsNot Nothing Then
   'add item
End If

A: No, a for each loop does not require a try block. Using try-catch for flow control is a bug. Instead, test to ensure that elements are not Nothing before adding them.

A: Try this:
If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(item) Then
    ' Add item
End If

UPDATE:
You can check to see if the array has anything in it, like this:
If strFriends.Length > 0 Then
    ' Do something with array
End If


Surface preparation procedures for indium gallium nitride (InGaN) thin films were analyzed for their effectiveness for carbon and oxide removal as well as for the resulting surface roughness. Aqua regia (3:1 mixture of concentrated hydrochloric acid and concentrated nitric acid, AR), hydrofluoric acid (HF), hydrochloric acid (HCl), piranha solution (1:1 mixture of sulfuric acid and 30% H2O2) and 1:9 ammonium sulfide:tert-butanol were all used along with high temperature anneals to remove surface contamination. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were utilized to study the extent of surface contamination and surface roughness, respectively. The ammonium sulfide treatment provided the best overall removal of oxygen and carbon. Annealing over 700 °C after a treatment showed an even further improvement in surface contamination removal. The piranha treatment resulted in the lowest residual carbon, while the ammonium sulfide treatment leads to the lowest residual oxygen. AFM data showed that all the treatments decreased the surface roughness (with respect to as-grown specimens) with HCl, HF, (NH4)2S and RCA procedures giving the best RMS values (∼0.5–0.8 nm).

Get ready to save on lunch, because April 4th is National Burrito Day! In our opinion, this is the most important national food day next to National Pizza Day, and one of the few that actually matter. It's a feast for the senses and no strain on your wallet, so you'd better take advantage while the deals are on.
Abuelo's — Abuelo's is offering all-day happy hour at participating locations, but all locations will be selling their Grande or Durango burritos for only $7.99 today only!
Blue Coast Burrito — The only thing better than one burrito, is another FREE burrito to go along with it. Bring a friend and share this deal. Or don't, in which case you'll have two burritos all to yourself.
Baja Fresh — Baja Fresh is offering $5 burritos all day long on National Burrito Day. Dope.
California Tortilla — If you've never had California Tortilla, this will give you a reason to go! When you purchase a burrito on April 4th, you'll be able to claim a free burrito anytime between April 5th and April 12th. You'll just have to sign up for the Burrito Elito program, which is basically California Tortilla's rewards program.
Chipotle — Chipotle is offering free delivery all day so long as you order through DoorDash. Eh, do better Chipotle.
Chuy's — You won't be able to score a free burrito or save any money here, but each "Big As Yo Face" burrito Chuy's sells on National Burrito Day will net a $1 donation to St. Jude's Children's Hospital. Which is almost better than a free burrito, honestly.

China Construction Bank Buys London Office Building For $187M
Investment Research Team
China Construction Bank, which has recently been selected to become the first Chinese bank to provide RMB clearing service in London, has purchased a central London office building at 111 Old Broad Street for around US$186.9 million, according to an announcement.
The Chinese state-owned bank bought the seven-story freehold building with a total area of 122,880 square feet from Belgian bank KBC Bank N.V. The building had recently undergone a major refurbishment and has agreed a lease to retain its occupants.
The City of London has the most densely located financial institutions as well as the largest foreign exchange market in the world. It witnesses US$3.23 trillion foreign exchange turnover each day and 18% of cross-border lending.
"KBC and Knight Frank invested a huge amount of time and effort in refurbishing the building to create an exceptional headquarters office building in the heart of The Square Mile," says Nick Braybrook, head of city investment at Knight Frank, which served as an adviser in the deal.
Last November, China Investment Corporation says it would buy Chiswick Park, a 32-acre London business park, from U.S. private equity group Blackstone Group for about US$1.359 billion.
At the same time, Hong Kong-based private equity real estate firm Gaw Capital Partners says that it has acquired the Waterside House at Paddington in London on behalf of a group of Korean institutional investors.

General Session Have We Digitally Transformed Yet?
John Ferguson, Senior Director of Solution Architecture, OutSystems
In the world of technology, we add buzzwords to our lexicon faster than any other industry and wear them out even more quickly. However, the organizations that learn the kernel of truth inside each of these phrases can chart a path to more engaging customer experiences, increased profitability, and improved risk profiles. Financial service organizations have often led the way with applying technology to their businesses but there are clear winners and losers. Modern software platforms now give us a way to democratize access to the technology and talent needed to compete across the industry. In our talk we will explore what sits at the heart of buzzwords such as Platform, Low-Code, Process Automation and Cloud in order to find a path that leads to the famed land of Digital Transformation.

General Session Challenge the Rules of Security: Transform the Threat Surface to Proactive Control
Robert DeVito, Global Director, Customer & Partner Sales Engineering, Google Chrome
With the dramatic increase in distributed workforces and the growing adoption of cloud applications, companies face unprecedented levels of IP, data, and identity sprawl beyond the enterprise firewall. Every endpoint is an entry into your business, cybercriminals have more ways to break in than ever before, and human error on the inside is a constant risk. Historically, endpoint security has been a zero-sum game—with the odds inevitably stacked against IT. But rather than protect devices, what if you could just control the security of them?
In this presentation, see how Chrome OS and Chrome Browser are secure by design—embedding security into every workflow to provide proactive protection for users, devices, applications, and data, wherever work happens. This is cloud-first security control in the hands of the modern businesses that will thrive moving forward.
Closing Remarks Are you Ready to Grow?
We will pull together key insights and end with a call to action including recapping shared guidance on how CIOs can lead their organizations, accelerate learning and thrive through 2021 and beyond.

AstraZeneca antibody shots get emergency FDA clearance
AstraZeneca Plc's antibody cocktail received emergency use authorization from the US Food and Drug Administration, providing another possible weapon in the fight against the pandemic. Evusheld, as the treatment is known, was authorized for emergency use as "pre-exposure prophylaxis for prevention of Covid-19 in some adults and pediatric individuals, the FDA said in a statement. Results from two trials show the cocktail is highly effective at preventing symptomatic Covid-19 in at-risk people and also halved the risk of developing severe illness or death from mild or moderate Covid-19. The U.K. pharma giant has already agreed a deal to supply at least 700,000 doses to the U.S. Antibody treatments can be used to supplement vaccines for people who haven't mounted a strong response to the shots or to protect those who couldn't be immunized, such as cancer patients. Although some antibody treatments require complex intravenuous delivery, Astra's one can be given using two injections. Download.

I have several freedom pop phones. One LG Optimus G has the annual plan for unlimited talk/txt/500mb of data with premium voice. I bought 3 Kyocera Hydro Icons to add to my account, and they do not have the annual plans. Another phone I was considering offered a unlimited talk/txt/500mb for a monthly $10.99. Can u explain why all the phones don't offer the same plans? I would love to switch one of my Hydro Icons to an unlimited plan with premium voice annually.


Their 11th-hour escape on the eve of the second world war became the stuff of legend, earning international recognition for the man who organised it, Sir Nicholas Winton.
Now people spirited out of German-occupied Czechoslovakia when they were children are to pay homage to previously unsung heroes in the affair – the parents who boarded them on to Winton's "kindertransport" trains bound for Britain in a desperate attempt to save them from the Nazis.
A memorial recognising the agonising moral choice made by parents of the 669 mostly Jewish children sent away is to be constructed in Prague's main railway station, from where eight evacuation trains departed in the spring and summer of 1939, after Nazi Germany invaded Czechoslovakia.
It will stand near a statue of Winton, the British aid worker and former stockbroker who organised the transports and has been labelled "the British Schindler" for his role in rescuing Jews, a comparison to Oskar Schindler, the Nazi industrialist credited with saving 1,200 Jewish prisoners from Hitler's death camps.


Dried extractextractto get, separate, or isolate a desired active ingredients of hoodia stems and roots are used to make capsules, powders, and chewable tablets. Hoodia can also be used in liquid extracts and teas.
Hoodia products often contain other herbs or minerals, such as green tea or chromium picolinate.
Kalahari Bushmen have traditionally eaten hoodia stems to reduce their hunger and thirst during long hunts.
Today, hoodia is marketed as an appetite suppressant for weight loss.
There is no reliable scientific evidence to support the use of hoodia. No studies of the herb in people have been published.
Hoodia's safety is unknown. Its potential risks, side effects, and interactions with medicines and other supplements have not been studied.
The quality of hoodia products varies widely. News reports suggest that some products sold as hoodia do not contain any hoodia.


← Pensions need to be sold for the sausage not the sizzle.
We should all be a little happier today with the news that the Pension Regulator has won its case against Fleet Maritime Services, meaning that many thousands of employees on overseas contracts will be treated as UK based and thus eligible for auto-enrolment.
The Pensions Regulator has won a landmark legal victory against an employer who argued it was not obliged to meet a new pension duty for staff because they worked on cruise ships.
Fleet Maritime Services, a Bermuda-based employer, had argued that many of its UK staff were not covered by automatic enrolment as they worked in international waters and could not be said to "ordinarily work in the UK". However, the High Court on Tuesday said it agreed with the regulator's position that the workers were covered by automatic enrolment.
Thanks as usual to Jo Cumbo of the FT for tipping me off on this! Well done Lesley Titcombe and hurrah for our best naval victory since Trafalgar!
You might think it random for me to be banging on about Seafarers but bear with me. In my pre-financial services days I spent some time in Iceland as a trawler man. While latterly my seafaring exploits have been confined to the decks of Caribbean Cruise Liners, I've got a weather eye for those in peril on the sea.
If you want to read about how this all started , flip back to my blogs a few years ago.
The plight of the offshore contractor.
So one teacher on an onshore contract's been enrolled for three years and another still has a year to wait! No one explains these things to you when you are given your contract.
I remember visiting the London offices of one offshore manning agency and listening to the sound of piped seagulls, apparently many of the contractors calling in , assumed that the office was indeed in Sark!
Had tPR not won this ruling, many people would have missed out on auto-enrolment and we could have seen a surge in offshoring contracts meaning that people currently enrolled could have found themselves disenfranchised.
Jo broke the story at the bottom of an article in the FT on NEST. Not a lot of people know this, but NEST can't be of much help to workers with offshore contracts as they are required to turn away any employer which pays its staff using an offshore bank account. Not surprisingly, the offshore payment companies such as Fleet Maritime Services, keep their bank accounts offshore, not to do so would prejudice their priviledged tax status (vat mostly).
So weirdly, the Seafarers and the contract workers who are on offshore contracts- some of the most disadvantaged workers in the UK, are ineligible for NEST – a perverse twist to the "public service obligation".
I hope you enjoyed this magical mystery tour into the weirder edges of auto-enrolment. I hope the people who will, as a result of this victory for tPR, be getting a Workie, will be told and I hope that the nasty business of offshoring people's contracts to save a few quid in UK taxation, will suffer further setbacks.
nowhere for seamen to NEST?

The 725 number refers to Nevada 's Westcentral area. This code is linked after Utica. Syracuse. Watertown. Watertown. It also contains a 725 map code. Nearly 680 is the 725 area number. Again, it's a portable numbing technique for the particular coast.
Areacode 725 may be found in Nevada .
Focal Nevada is an area code that allows you to deliver calls to people within proximity. The 725 arrays you have now will not change. No new sums will be needed to assign the 725 or 680 codes. TollFreeForwarding.com provides a way to view your record and manage each advertisement. If you are located in the 725 regions, IRS scams might be more costly than regular cellphone misrepresentation.
Similarly 726 area code Nevada city serves within the united states.
Locale region made. It first covered Nevada 's central locale line. This included Binghamton and Syracuse. Its southern section, which included Binghamton and the southeastern corner of district numbering plan area 716, was joined in 1954 to make code 607. Nevada State regulators have proclaimed that 725 is in hazard from number consumption in the second from last quarter 2010. By then, Nevada State Public Service Commission pondered two unique decisions: blueprint. A numbering plan locale division would have been a north-south philosophy that secluded Oswego County from the north from 725 or an east-west opening with Oswego, Onondaga as the cutoff.


I was going through a stack of recipe books in my kitchen a few weeks ago, when I came across a 1926 edition of the Spark Stove Cook Book. It had belonged to my husband's Aunt Audrey.
In the middle of the little green book were illustrations of the Spark Stove line, and I found one that looked just like the gas range in my mother's kitchen in Berkeley back in the 1930s.
It is hard to believe today, but our house did not have central heating, and there was no fireplace, either. That little kitchen stove had a compartment on its left side for burning wood. It was enough to heat up the kitchen. The rest of the house had to make do with Berkeley's mild climate.
George Hammer, president of Hammer-Bray Co., which manufactured the Spark ranges in Oakland, wrote the introduction to the 1926 cookbook.
"The preparation of wholesome food has much to do with the mental and moral, as well as the physical, welfare of the family. There is no finer or higher degree of service, and for this service we look to the American Housewife," wrote Hammer.
Belle De Graf, cooking editor of the San Francisco Chronicle, edited the book. Hammer called her a national authority on culinary arts.
The cookbook was used to lure customers into department stores to take a look at the Spark stoves. Anyone who took the time to listen to a salesman list the virtues of the stove received one of the cookbooks.
The Franklin Furniture Store at 1552 Franklin St. in Oakland advertised the free cookbook to all visitors to its new stove department in 1924. The Spark Lid-Top Gas Range was selling for $98.50. In 1926, the Jackson Furniture Store in Oakland was still giving away a Spark cookbook to visitors, but if a customer bought the stove, it came with $5 worth of free gas. The price range in the Jackson store ad ranged from $88.50 to $129.50.
The recipes were fairly simple with few ingredients. The recipe for stew would probably make modern-day chefs cringe.
"Cut the meat into rather small pieces, divide it into two portions; add one portion to cold water and heat slowly to the boiling point. Meanwhile brown the other portion in a little fat in a pan. Then add to the water and meat. The whole should be cooked slowly for 3 hours or until the meat is tender. Add vegetables the last hour of cooking." The recipe goes on to suggest that "Sweet herbs, parsley, a bit of bay leaf, a few cloves, celery salt, or catsup may be added for variety." Hammer, a native Californian, grew up in San Francisco. He and his co-partner, Howard W. Bray, started a "finished metal products" manufacturing company in 1902 in Oakland.
Bray was the scion of a wealthy Oakland family. Together, the two came up with the start-up costs of $10,000.
Besides coal and wood stoves, the company made agricultural metal products such as sprayers.
It was in 1913 that Hammer-Bray Co. started manufacturing the first gas-powered ranges on the Pacific Coast. In 1918, the company bid on heating stoves for the U.S. Army.
The order was for 3,200 stoves, which would have cost a total of $200,000.
By 1920, Hammer-Bray was so successful, it had to enlarge its plant on 26th Avenue in Oakland.
"President George Hammer has built this concern up from a small manufacturing agency to one of the most important manufactories of finished metal materials in this section," the Oakland Tribune reported.
In July of 1927, the company shipped a carload of its deluxe gas range models to Louisville, Ky. It was the first carload of gas ranges from the Pacific Coast ever shipped east of the Mississippi River.
Hammer kept improving his stoves, adding such niceties as a broiler, a glass window in the oven door and automatic ignition of the gas burners.
Hammer's partner retired from the company in 1937. Hammer continued as president of Hammer-Bray until he died in 1941. The company continued manufacturing stoves through the 1950s. Its advertisements had disappeared from Oakland Tribune pages by 1959.
I don't know what Aunt Audrey's Spark Cook Book may be worth today. I couldn't find any Spark cookbooks for sale on the Internet.

Eucalyptus vernicosa, commonly known as varnished gum, is a species of shrub or a mallee that is endemic to mountainous areas of Tasmania. It has smooth greyish bark, crowded, egg-shaped to elliptical or round leaves, flower buds singly or in groups of three in leaf axils, white flowers and hemispherical or bell-shaped fruit.

Description
Eucalyptus vernicosa is a shrub that typically grows to a height of  or a mallee to  and forms a lignotuber. It has smooth grey or greyish brown bark. Young plants and coppice regrowth have crowded, sessile, glossy green, egg-shaped leaves that are  long and  wide and arranged in opposite pairs. Adult leaves are crowded, glossy green, egg-shaped to elliptical or round,  long and  wide with a rounded base, on a petiole  long, arranged in opposite pairs or alternately. The flower buds are arranged in groups of three in leaf axils on an unbranched peduncle up to  long, the individual buds sessile or almost so. Sometimes two of the buds in a group are lost so the buds appear singly. Mature buds are oval,  long and  wide, greenish brown and finely wrinkled with a conical operculum that is shorter than the floral cup. Flowering occurs in most months, peaking from December to February and the flowers are white. The fruit is a woody hemispherical or bell-shaped capsule  long and  wide with the valves near rim level.

Taxonomy
Eucalyptus vernicosa was first formally described in 1847 by Joseph Dalton Hooker in William Jackson Hooker's London Journal of Botany from specimens collected by Ronald Campbell Gunn on "Mount Fatigue, altitude 4000 feet". A specimen of Actinotus bellidoides held in the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, also collected on "Mount Fatigue" gives its location as "about 12 to 16 miles S.S.W. off [the St] Clair and about 4000 ft High [Van Dieman's Land]".  Mount Arrowsmith is found at approximately this location, and was named "Fatigue Hill" until 1855. The specific epithet is from the Latin word vernicosus meaning "varnished" or "shining", referring to the glossy appearance of the leaves.

Distribution and habitat
Eucalyptus vernicosa is endemic to Tasmania, and is only found in alpine regions in the west to southwest, including Cradle Mountain.  It grows between 700m and 1350m above sea level, usually on peaty acid soils on top of quartzite or sandstone bedrock.  It is usually found above the tree line, and can be a dominant component of alpine heath communities, along with Richea, Athrotaxis, and Orites.  This habitat typically has high average rainfall varying from 1000mm to 2500mm per year, and very cold winters with continuous frosts and snow for several months.  The harsh climate and nutritiously poor soils probably explain the small size and tough leaves.

Eucalyptus vernicosa has been traditionally cited as an example of a morphological continuum with E. johnstonii, and E. subcrenulata.  A study from Mount Arrowsmith showed a strong relationship within those three species, linking altitude with changes in glaucousness, leaf morphology, growth rates, habit, capsule shape, bark thickness and degree of frost resistance. It was suggested that they represented close relatives of one species that was diverging to adapt to an environmental cline. However more recent genetic studies show that E. vernicosa is more distantly related to the E. johnstonii/E. subcrenulata complex, and the apparent morphological clinal intergradation between E. vernicosa and E. subcrenulata is probably a result of parallel evolution.

Uses

Use in horticulture
A number of Tasmanian alpine Eucalypts, including E. vernicosa, are grown as ornamental trees and shrubs in Europe, and especially in the United Kingdom, due to their evergreen habit and similarity of climate.

Essential oils
In the early 20th century E. vernicosa was harvested for its oil, which was believed to have medicinal properties.

Rebuild vs. Restoration
A brief but interesting section of BBC Radio 4's Today programme piqued our interest last week. An original 1928 Bentley was found – literally in bits and pieces – in a West London home last year, and is expected to fetch as much as £1 million when it goes on sale. Obviously, at Classic Super Bikes, Bentleys are not of the utmost interest to us – but William Medcalf (of the Medcalf Collection, responsible for rebuilding the car) struck us with his comments on the favourability of reassembling the vehicle, as opposed to a restoring it. We find the same with bikes: everyone wants to restore them using lots of shiny new parts, and spend a lot of time and effort on these projects before realising that the bike isn't actually worth what they think it should be. The Bentley's value has built so much due to Medcalf and his team "taking the trouble to not actually restore the car but just to reassemble it." Moving away from profit, Medcalf calls the Bentley "a genuine joy" to have in the showroom, and original bikes – rebuilt or not – are similarly so. Here at Classic Super Bikes we do our best to sell bikes that are as close to the original as possible, and in our sister company Classic Bike Workshop we try to use original parts wherever we can (which has even seen us carry BSA A50 crank cases through customs!). Obviously we can appreciate a good restoration, but – as Medcalf points out – "a [vehicle] is only ever original once; it can be restored many times." We hope this "new way [of] find[ing] totally original" parts catches on, and our customers consider it when making their purchase!
You can listen to the original programme here: http://bbc.in/1Knvyd6 (between 02:42:45 and 02:45:41) and a Google search of "1928 bentley reassembled" brings up many articles on the car.

Organizations create innovation strategies to improve their productivity and the competitive advantage. In this sense, innovation management facilitates the realization of innovation. It is known that measurement is important in the management processes; however, there is no classification of the contributions in these subjects. Therefore, in this study we identify publications that involve measurement and analysis in the management of innovation. Our study used a systematic mapping of the literature and it shows that in recent years there has been an increase in research on measurement, however, there are few studies and only for certain industrial sectors, sizes of companies and countries. Hence, there is a little worked research space which can be more developed.

Q: How do you perform an AJAX submit and do a get in backbone.js? I'm trying to pull data via a AJAX submit and render it into a div #search_results in backbone.  How do I do this?  I am entirely new to backbone and still learning.
Thanks!
RoR Controller:
class ClassroomsController < PublicController
  def search
    @search_result = Classroom.first
    respond_with @search_result
  end
end

RoR View:
= form_tag search_path, :method => :get, :id => "search_form", do
  = text_field_tag :search_textbox
  = submit_tag "Search", :id => "search_button"
#search_results

classrooms/search.js.erb:
$("#search_results").html("<%=escape_javascript(render 'search')%>");

classrooms/search.html.haml:
= @search_result.classroom.title

backbone.js View:
class Classrooms.Views.Classroom extends Backbone.View

  events:
    "submit #search_button": "getResults"

  render: ->
    $(@el).html($("#classroom_main").html())
    @setActiveNavItem("main")
    this

  getResults: (event) ->
    event.stopPropagation()
    event.preventDefault()
    $.get $(this).attr("action"), $(this).serialize(), null, "script"
    return false

A: Hi BackboneJS works a litte different,
it has MVC in client and a RESTful backend.

The book starts with an extensive discussion on the origins, preservation, and perpetuation of systemic and carefully considered plundering of Africa over the centuries. At the very outset, Bond grapples with the question why is Africa poor ultimately? He then offers two explanations in an attempt to provide a meaningful answer. He draws from the then British Prime Minister Tony Blair's Commission for Africa which argues that "Africa is poor, ultimately, because its economy has not grown" and in order for the economy to grow "the public and private sectors need to work together to create a climate which unleashes the entrepreneurship of the peoples of Africa, generates employment and encourages individuals and firms, domestic and foreign, to invest". From the commission's perspective, it is clear that for Africa to develop economically it needs to adopt market-friendly policies with enthusiasm. For Bond Africa remains the most underdeveloped region in the world "because its economy and society have been ravaged by international capital as well as by local elites who are often propped up by foreign powers". He notes that the ending of apartheid did not change South Africa from being "the Northern imperialist countries' junior ally" that is "willing to play the role of a sub-imperialist for them". In essence, Bond's thesis is that Africa's economic situation is deteriorating because of a conspiracy by elites from Northern countries and those from post-independent Africa.

If every New year you gain a few pounds, it is time to understand what you are doing wrong. We've collected five common errors which appear extra inches at the waist and then have to start all over again.
If your plans for the holidays include view only accumulated a new TV series with a mug of hot tea or something stronger and high-calorie, we have some bad news for you: that day when you get up for work, you Wake up with a couple of extra pounds. The lack of any physical activity — even a short walk to store and back — slows down the metabolism, and thus affects the figure. So I suggest to dress warmly and to quickly go out — studies show that walking in the cold seasons contribute to increased energy and better burn fat, especially brown, is hard to get rid of.
The first habit is to spawn the second you sit at home, refuse going out at the moment and because I miss it. It is from idleness, not from hunger, as you might think, you are constantly drawn to all the sweets and unhealthy fat. The surest way to avoid this is to find something else to do, besides watching funny videos and Christmas movies. For example, choose ice-skating or learn skiing, you will love it!
Habit to go to bed and get up at the same time often goes out of control during the Christmas holidays, and to restore the mode after the holidays is not so easy. Moreover, disrupting your sleep, people are most susceptible to the recruitment of extra pounds appetite increases and endless desire to eat something not lost for a minute. For the sleep disturbance should a violation of the regulation of lipid metabolism, hence there is a craving for high-calorie foods. So try to stay on time, even if on the TV show new series about Sherlock Holmes.
Throughout the years you have developed this habit and do not forget to drink water every day, but on vacation I decided to relax and even forget about the existence of this fluid. Not long ago, we destroyed the myth that everyone needs to drink eight glasses of water a day, but here about its benefits and the need for the body, no one argues. Water is involved in nearly all chemical processes and also regulates the metabolism, and its speed — as you know — directly affects the amount of deferred fat. If there is a choice between sweet juice and plain water, we hope now you will make the right decision.
During the holidays we eat literally everything that we see, not thinking about the fact that the stomach has long been full, and that new jeans became tight. Of course, everyone decides for themselves what, how much and when to eat. But if you want to maintain the shape and not to detect on the scales terrible for you after the holidays, try not to forget about three main meals, light snacking, control portion sizes and minimize the intake of junk food. Otherwise, why would you then lose weight for the New year?

Article: Veteran US Diplomat Atul Keshap appointed US-India Business Council President
FRIDAY07JAN 2022
Veteran US Diplomat Atul Keshap appointed US-India Business Council President
Keshap has held a number of senior US government positions and been instrumental in expanding US-India strategic and economic cooperation and growing commercial ties across multiple sectors.
Ambassador Atul Keshap has been named president of the US-India Business Council (USIBC), effective January 5, the US Chambers of Commerce has announced.
The Washington DC-based USIBC, a business advocacy group, represents top global companies operating across the United States, India, and the Indo-Pacific.
Keshap most recently served in New Delhi as United States Chargé d'Affaires to India, leading the US Embassy team. Keshap, a career diplomat who has spent nearly three decades in the US foreign services, has held a number of senior US government positions.
Keshap's predecessor Nisha Biswal, a former US Assistant Secretary of State for South Asia, will remain deeply involved with the organisation as the US Chamber of Commerce's Senior Vice President of International Strategy and Global Initiatives and South Asia.
"Ambassador Keshap brings a wealth of experience and knowledge of India and the Indo-Pacific to his new role. Across multiple US administrations, he has been instrumental in expanding US-India strategic and economic cooperation and growing commercial ties across multiple sectors. I look forward to working with Atul and the entire USIBC team to deliver to our members and leaders in both countries unmatched experience, advocacy, and networks to further deepen the US-India partnership," said Biswal.
"The US-India Business Council is a critical and vital voice in driving ever closer commercial cooperation between the world's two largest democracies," said Myron Brilliant, Executive Vice President and Head of the International Division of the US Chamber of Commerce.
The US Chamber of Commerce is the world's largest business organisation representing companies of all sizes across every sector of the economy.
"As the next President of USIBC, I am honoured and excited to continue my involvement in shaping and strengthening the robust relationship between the United States and India. I am thrilled to join the US Chamber's international powerhouse team and be part of the world's largest and most influential advocacy organisation," said Keshap.
Keshap previously served as US Ambassador to Sri Lanka and Maldives; as well as Chargé d'Affaires at the US Embassy in New Delhi; Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for East Asia and Pacific Affairs; United States Envoy for Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation, and Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for South Asia in Washington, DC, as well as in a number of distinguished roles at the National Defense University, the White House National Security Council, and in diplomatic postings in Washington and abroad, including in India from 2005 to 2008.
